This allows for SA officials to treat each other to meals under the guise of‘supplies’.” To prevent this kind of misrepresentation, the coalition report recommends changing the Financial Guidelines to prohibit of any money for the than what it is other purposes slated for. Because it is difficult to obtain information on the expenditure of mandatory fees, the coalition members plan to introduce a constitutional amendment that would make REP forms public to any student. The four coalition members feel that misuse of funds can be stopped by having independent students sign the REP forms. Three signatures are presently required: one student government representative, an administrative approval (usually Howard Devell, assistant vice-president for Student Affairs), and the organizational president (such as the SA president). use through a careful delineation of checks and balances can the students realize their basic rights.” “People are prone to abuses,” conceded Mr. Sokolow. “It’s the system that is open to abuse; you can’t really blame anything on the individuals involved. We aren’t out to ‘get’ anybody,” he added. The immediate reason given for the release of die coalition’s report was to “raise the consciousness” of students and “to get them interested so that, hopefully, changes can be effected.” Mr. Mones continued: “The point of this document is for students to make their own inferences. We qan learn from these abuses, just as we can learn from Watergate. Maybe this is a micro-Watergate.” “Considering the budget crisis,” said Ms. Thome, “the practices we found are highly unethical. Hopefully,” she continued, “if students see how their money is really spent, they will be able to sharpen their opinions on the budget and will know how to vote better in the future.” The Anal goal they hope to achieve is a student government that has a system of checks and balances. “The Student-Wide Judiciary (SWJ) is not utilized enough.

A REP form must be filled out any time a group uses mandatory fee money. Mr. Sokolow said: “Only a small percentage of REP forms on file were examined,” after the coalition received permission from SA Treasurer Sal Napoli. The coalition has recommended the establishment of a more viable mechanism for discovering students’ fiscal priorities. A form may be inserted in next semester’s registration packets asking students to describe their budgetary priorities, Mr. Sokolow explained. Ultimately, a reordering of spending priorities will be asked of the Student Assembly. Coalition research has agency that handled the travel plans. One of the faculty members stopped in El Paso and Dallas, Texas on his way back from San Francisco. Although he was expected to pay back part of the extra air fare, the REP form states that he incurred a $415 expense, which is considerable above the fare he would have incurred had he come directly back to Buffalo.

However, the coalition discovered that NYPIRG members did not recall meeting them at that time.

The new form would read: “We, Sub-Board I, Inc., reserve the right to seek reimbursement from you for any funds given in this advance if, in our opinion, any item purchased was not within the stated purposes of the advance.” The form will have to be signed by the officer requesting funds.

N.V. 11501 �Costs vs, benefits: the ethics of experimentation Editor’s Note: In 1963, Yale psychologist Stanley Milgram conducted a startling series of obedience experiments demonstrating that man will carry out orders to a horrifying degree. In this second article of a two-part series, the complex ethical questions surrounding the Milgram study which pit the benefits to mankind against the rights of the individual are explored and the very nature of psychological experimentation is examined. - by Gary Cohn Campus Editor As a subject in the Milgram obedience experiment, Morris Bravcrman followed an experimenter’s explicit order to administer increasingly severe shocks to a “learner” despite the "learner’s bone-chilling screams. At one point, Mr. Braverman asked the experimenter if he had to follow his instructions literally, and upon receiving an affirmative answer he eventually pushed the shock generator past the “extremely painful” level. Throughout the session, Mr. Braverman, a social worker, was not able to control his laughter. When he got home that night, his wife told him: “You can call yourself Eichmann.” Mr. Braverman’s case pinpoints the complex ethical question involved in many pschological experiments; an issue pitting the rights of the subject versus the potential benefits to mankind. - . A grueling experience There is no question that the participants in the Milgram experiment were subjected to a grueling experience, at least temporarily. As Stanley Milgram has stated: “For the teacher {the subject], the situation quickly becomes one of gripping tension. It is not a game for him; conflict is intense and obvious. The manifest suffering of the learner [who is actually an experimental confederate] presses him to quit; but each time he hesitates to administer a shock, the experimenter orders him to continue.” After the experiment was over and the subject was told the true purpose of the experiment, the subject who has obeyed the experimenter’s orders is faced with the realization that he is capable of inflicting suffering upon another person simply because he has been told to do so. “You have to look at these things in terms of costs and benefits,” asserted Jack Loftis, professor of Psychology at the State University of Buffalo. The costs involve the people who had to go through a painful a powerfully painful experience experience when they, just went in for an experiment, Dr. Loftis maintained. He added: “Somehow, that’s just not fair.” - Resilience To assess the benefits, Dr., Loftis continued, “we must look to what we learned. In the Milgram and Zimbardo experiments, maybe 20 people got very , upset - but people are resilient and bounce back.” “How about all the , ■ people who constantly have to go through these experiences [in real life] and now no longer have to go through them?” asked Dr. Loftis rhetorically. He then answered: “The benefit is more happiness for more people.” In the Zimbardo prison study, Stanford University psychologist Philip Zimbardo set up a simulated prison in which half the subjects were assigned the role of “guard” and the other half the role of “prisoner.” The subjects were volunteers who had answered a newspaper ad to make $20 per day as a participant in an experiment. The experiment was scheduled to run for two weeks. The simulated prison had such a tremendous impact that Dr. Zimbardo was forced to call off the study after only six - handcuffs and keys, and then being told that they must maintain law and order in the jail and enforce 16 arbitrary rules. The impact on the subjects was so severe that the vast majority said they would have given up all their earned pay ($20 per day) if they were just allowed to leave the “prison,” which was actually located in the basement of a building on the Stanford University campus. In both the Zimbardo and Milgram experiments, the subjects underwent an extensive de-briefing in which they were informed of the true purpose of the experiment and given an opportunity to work out their personal feelings with the experimenter. Milgram: added precautions Additionally, Dr. Milgram told The Spectrum that some of the subjects were given psychiatric interviews as an added added the experiment served as a “powerful learning experience” for the subjects. “In retrospect,” he continued, “It’s easy these experiments [Milgram and Zimbardo], because they greatly increase oyr knowledge. But the problem comes in setting up the guidelines: Who is going to decide whether the experiment is worth the potential heartache and pain to the subject?” to justify One possible answer is to have ethics committees review the experimental designs of controversial experiments before they are put into practice. John Lick, Psychology professor at the State University of Buffalo who has served on the University’s “ethics committee,” said that when looking at an experiment, “it must be determined if it is possible to do physical or psychological harm to the subject.” He continued: “Generally, the experiment is vetoed if it [the experiment] is potentially harmful. Of course, there is room for disagreement about what the experiment has a capacity for -.” Dr. Lick added that the ethics committee does not encounter many difficult situations. Both Dr. Lick and State University of Buffalo psychologist Barbara Bunker agreed there is a conservative trend in experimentation that is, there is a tendency to veto an experiment if there is any doubt about whether it could harm subjects, even though it may be the only way to obtain needed knowledge. - days because “in less than a week, the prison situation can transform mature, emotionally stable and physically healthy, law-abiding, middle-class college students into either the traditional prison guard or inmate role.” precaution. And a year after the experiment, follow-up questionnaires were sent to the subjects, in his questionnaire, subject Morris Braverman wrote: “What appalled me was that I could possess this capacity for obedience and compliance to a central idea even after it became clear that continued adherence to this value was at the expense of another value, i.e., don’t hurt someone who is helpless and not hurting you .. .” He added: “1 hope I deal more effectively with any future conflicts of value 1 encounter” (,Harper’s Magazine, December, 1973). Dr. Loftis echoed this theme, observing that the de-briefing undercut the detrimental effects on the subject. He ... Prisoners vs. guards The prisoners were unexpectedly picked up by a police car at their homes; searched, fingerprinted and booked; crowded into a six-by-nine foot cell with two other prisoners; required to ask the quards for permission to go to the bathroom; and subjected to numerous other de-humanizing experiences. The guards were also thrust into their role by being given clubs, whistles, Fire “Experiments have increasingly come under fire from the outside, and so there is a tendency to keep one’s own house in order so that other people don’t,” explained Dr. Lick. He added: “People are very careful before giving the ethical stamp of approval.” Much of the criticism that has been leveled at psychological studies, according to Dr. Lick, has arisen because of the considerable confusion between medical and psychological experimentation. Maintaining that “the problem is more acute in medical research than in psychological research,” Dr. Lick said there is very little evidence that psychological experiments produce “significant lasting harm for individuals, while medical research has produced lasting harm, even though it may have contributed to some kind of understanding.” The confusion is especially acute in Congress, which fails to sufficiently differentiate psychological from medical research. Dr. Lick commented. Shock! ‘The ethics committees are a sham,” charged Dr. Loftis. He believes the committees will often focus on certain key things as dangerous especially shock while the really dangerous procedures slip — — —continued on page 27 — H FOUNDATION’S CELEBRATION $ OF END OF YEAR.

Page tthree �Rapid transit between campuses due in 1981 A rapid transit system, proposed by the Niagara Frontier Transportation Authority (NFTA) to connect the Main and Amherst Campuses, is being investigated by CAC and WNYPIRG. The subway line would run from Amherst to downtown Buffalo, with stations at the Main Campus and other key locations. The projected completion date has been set at 1981, and NFTA hopes to charge a price comparable to bus fares. The University administration plans to discontinue free bus service between the Amherst and Main Campuses when the transit system is completed. CAC and WNYPIRG feel this would put a heavy financial burden on students with classes at both campuses. A final report by the Jointly-sponsored Rapid Transit Task Force resulted from a student-oriented questionnaire on the subject. Money concerns The survey indicated that students care more about the price than the service, and “prices comparable to bus fares” are definitely too high for the average student’s budget. Also, because of the future movement of most University facilities to Amhcst, commuting between the two campuses is expected to increase rapidly in the next seven years. ' Health Science students, with classes on both campuses, will be hardest hit. Much of this commuting can be avoided by special scheduling, but the lack of available jiousing and other facilities at Amherst will still • create a drastic transportation problem for the average student. • The alternative is a student fare subsidy. President Robert Ketter has implied that it is up to the students to bring about this sort of change in policy. The NFTA’s Kenneth Knight wrote to CAC that the subsidy money would have to come from the University. The Task Force’s primary goal in the next few weeks will be to arrange a bargaining session for the administration and NFTA. If the subsidy is approved, students can look forward to cheap, reliable mass transit between campuses. A self-defense Karate demonstration into these problems is because they are walking alone at 2 a.m. Even though the courts wiped out the need for corroborating evidence, a woman being out alone at night is automatically believed to have asked for it,” -one offer said. “The question is not whether you’ve been taped, get given by four women highlighted a conference on rape, Thursday, sponsored by the Women’s Studies College. One woman started karate lessons, after being attacked, to defend herself by making her body strong. Another woman said that because she knew karate, she wasn’t raped when attacked. Without karate, she felt she wouldn’t have had a chance of protecting herself. “It made all the but whether you can prove it,” she noted. The officer advised any woman who has been raped not to shower, because some degree of evidence is required. “Unfortunately, even though progress was made in wiping out corroborating evidence, the attitudes and possibly the system must change,” she said, adding: “The police try to prove the woman is guilty before accepting that she has really been difference,” she asserted. Dealing with rape During another segment of the conference, two Campus Security women answered questions on how to deal with rape. “The reason women raped.” More than just art: College B moving to Ellicott by Russell Sc hoe nwetter Spectrum Staff Writer After much intense planning. College B is moving to the EUicott Complex. This move has been long awaited and, hopefully, will finally provide the College with the space it needs to carry out its ideas. College B is also merging with the Communications College and will co-reside with College H, the health studies college. Although may of the courses they offer center around the arts, College B members hasten to point out that they are more than “just an Arts College.” The College’s basic goal is to make the dormitory “more than a place to eat and sleep.” Most of their classes are held in the Governor’s dorm. In this informal setting, members attempt to break down the barriers between faculty and students, so that ideally, all will be teachers and students. Learning is a 24-hour-a-day experience, they feel, and it should not end once you leave the classroom. “Art is basic in everything,” said Bonnie Spanner, a member of College B, “and we utilize the artistic experience to make education a more personalized and human endeavor. We seek to develop each individual's creativity and to expand people’s thinking; to get art into their lives." Very few members of College B are art majors. The majority are science and humanities majors who want a more well-rounded education. One College B course. “Residential Education,” covers option of independent study for the managerial problems of living full credit. in the dorms; this semester they planned the College’s move to Among the other plans for include “The next year are a student art gallery Ellicott.

The Western New York region is the key to establishing an effective state-wide P1RG. Professionals needed The type of projects WNYP1RG undertakes require professional skills. Witness the sex discrimination study of employment agencies in Buffalo: Esther Benjamin admitted the project was impotent because the participants did not have legal counsel. With a full-time lawyer coordinating the numerous projects like this one, the group’s effectiveness would be increased, with possible litigation, or its threat hopefully resulting in the elimination of many illegal practices. Only a group like WNYP1RG will investigate questions of this nature not one the Chess Club or Black Student Union. It needs full-time and even the Student Association.

The minimum acceptable amount would be $20,000. When Ralph Nader came to this campus in 1971 to initiate the idea of Public Interest Research Groups, 14,000 affidavits were signed by students at this University approving the concept of PIRG. Consumerism was then at its peak, and students were excited about the prospoects of having a group of “Nader’s Raiders” on campus. In the last referendum held on this campus, students voted by a threc-to-one margin to support WNYP1RG by a reordering of priorities. Mr. Nader will return to his campus tomorrow to support the work of a group of students who unearthed ghastly information about area pharmacists. By announcing the results of the study, Mr. Nader will be lending added credence to the already-important study. — — Surely, the Student Association wishes to make a favorable impression in the community. Numerous benefits Every project that WNYPIRG embarks upon has a direct effect upon students. Fortunately, they affect community citizens as well, generally in a positive manner. Commentary Thus, WNYPIRG will prove itself as a viable entity in the eyes of Western New York, although not in the eyes of the SA officers. Unkept promises The budget submitted by the SA Finance Committee contains no evidence of reordered priorities. Athletics still takes up over one-third of the total allocation. A true reordering of priorities would require athletics to take a less prominent place in the budget. Student Association executive committee members were elected with that mandate. Michael Phillips, a member of the Finance Committee, said in his platform as candidate for Treasurer that he would give “full $25,000 funding to WNYPIRG,” yet voted against a full appropriation for WNYPIRG. Mr. Phillips’ case demonstrates the repeated violations of student trust by Student Association politicians. There are those who control the purse strings who contend that WNYPIRG’s money would be used “off-campus.” Indeed it will. A large percentage of the money spent by undergraduate organizations eventually finds its way off campus. My position on this newspaper was once called “Off-Campus Editor,” and simply by the nature of the position, the material I use goes off campus, Yet, not one word of complaints has been lodged against the City Editor’s position. The same holds for Ethos, CAC, WNYPIRG’s bicycle lock survey will be of particular value to students, because it will determine which locks on the market are least prone to vandalism. Tht sex discrimination study affects seniors in particular (See The Spectrum May 3], the Legislative Profile study affects the entire state, and other states as well. Prescription drug price surveys, supermarket surveys, recycling projects, tree planting, and telephone surveys benefit huge numbers of students and people in general. Spending $25,000 on projects that solely apply to non-University students is not desirable. Perhaps the Student Assembly should consider mandating that WNYPIRG undertake a certain number of student-oriented projects, so that student money won’t be “wasted.” An investigation into hiring practices at this University might be called for, as well as admission policies, financial aid policies, degree requirements, the Faculty-Student Association, as well as the Trustees of the University and the Administration. These investigations would be in the students’ interest but they should not be done to the exclusion of the other projects with broader appeal, In the future, State University of Buffalo students would not be the only college in Western New York financing the consumer group. If WNYPIRG proves successful with full funding, additional schools will join in the financing, reducing our financial load and increasing Gov Dance and Cafe , - Unfortunately, it seems that WNYPIRG is losing its helped it maintain its objectivity, he becoming so enmeshed in the interest group Coalition. Abuses certainly exist within the Student Association, but it is not the Coalition’s responsibility (as long as WNYPIRG is a member) to expose it. Perhaps WNYPIRG can do that as a separate project next year, and thus utilize some of its student funds on campus. Demands may be placed on it in the future by other coalition members to work for other, separate goals. After the SA money has been allocated, WNYPIRG should never again form such a coalition to receive funding. (Besides, after next year there hopefully won’t be a lump sum allocation from SA; it would receive its funding through voluntary payment on a student’s bill.) To do so might be suicide. WNYPIRG already is a vital force on this campus. Unless it is funded at an adequate level, its present leaders will not remain with the organization. Frankly, 1 don’t blame them. This school was the first to form a P1RG, and has promised increased increased funding for WNYPIRG every year but has yet to do so at a level that will allow the group to be really effective. WNYPIRG is challenging the Student Association to give it the money necessary to implement a radical concept in education, in social reform, and in political reform on this campus. To respond properly to that challenge, SA must actually reorder their priorities. They might consider, through the office of the National Affairs Coordinator, a lobbying effort to have the State pay for athletics, which is supposedly an integral part of our education. A coordinated effort through every state college and university would succeed (as did the effort to kill the anti-student newspaper bill) in maintaining sports at an acceptable level, as well as freeing one-quarter of a million dollars of our student fees for other projects. Can the new SA officers meet this multi-faceted challenge? Or will they, like those in the past, be afraid to “Give PIRG a chance?” autonomy, which — LSAT REVIEW CLASSES JULY 20-21 IN BUFFALO Provisional preparation for the LAW SCHOOL ADMISSION TEST; intensive review given in N.Y. and other cities by LAW BOARD REVIEW CENTER attorneys who are LSAT specialists; the course offers: (Extensive Friday-May lO at 8.00 p.m. Fillmore Room, Norton Union Vitality necessary materials designed to dup/icate LSAT questions; Analysis of LSAT's nature structure scoring, loading to improvod approach to the exam and highor scores; an I | I Proven molhods for quickly analyzingLSAT typos of problems | .

The activities will begin at 11:30. The demonstration is designed to bring to the public's attention the plight of some 10,000 political prisoners detained by the military regime of Gen. Pinochet, and the countless thousands that have already died, either during last September’s coup or in the crackdown on socialist reformers that has been going on ever since. The day’s activities are designed to make local citizens aware that the American government together with various large industries have been pouring money and materiel into the military regime, while turning a deaf ear to pleas from international social agencies and several western European nations, that have spoken out against the cruel treatment and autocratic rule that has been imposed by the military. The event is sponsored by a collection of local organizing groups: The committee for Chilean Democracy, Attica Brigade, Women’s Studies College, Youth against War and Fascism, the Western New York Peace Center, Vietnam Vets.WSO, Anti-Monopoly Committee, and the Young Workers Liberation League. Similar rallies will be held in Chicago, New York, Washington and San Francisco. Monday, 6 May 1974 The Spectrum .

The New York State Electric and Gas Corporation (NYSE&G) recently announced its plans to build two nuclear power plants on the shore ofLake Ontario in the Town of Somerset in Niagara County. The plants will generate 1.2 million kilowatts of electricity and will cost 1 over $ 1 billion. Although the energy crisis continues, many of the inhabitants in Somerset and neighboring towns are fighting to prevent the building of these nuclear plants Lee Simonson, a Niagara County Legislator (14th district) is vehemently protesting the- nuclear plant. Mr. Simonson describes the various disadvantages of nuclear power in his report. Second Thoughts on Nuclear Power Generation in Niagara County. Such disadvantages include the disposal of radioactive wastes; water pollution and radiation emissions from the plants. . .01 millirem of radiation How much radiation is actually emitted from a nuclear plant? “The contribution of radiation from operating nuclear power plants is actually about .01 millirem per year,” according to a report published by the San Diego Section of the American Nuclear Society. To give you an idea of what that figure means, a luminous dial wrist watch gives off 200 times that amount of radiation. What about the wastes? Plutonium-239, a waste product of a nuclear power plant, is possibly the most poisonous element ever handled by man. Donald Gessaman, an authority on the plutonium hazard, estimated that there will be one human lung cancer for every 10,000 particles of plutonium inhaled. To put that figure in perspective, one pound of plutonium-239 represents the potential tor some nine billion human lung cancer doses. Any plutonium that escapes will be present in the air for over 20,000 years. The pros and cons of nuclear power are evident. Electricity is produced more efficiently in nuclear power plants. Nuclear plants produce more electricity than coal or gas plants of equal size. But in return for the increased power, certain ecological sacrifices will have to be made. Those decisions will affect our generation, the next generation, and generations to come. NYSE&G is determined to demonstrate its “commitment to building a clean, safe, attractive facility incorporating the besfcadvances of modern technology.” “The odds against a serious atomic power-plant accident will be 10,000 to 1,” wrote Ralph E. Lapp in The New York Times. To the people of Somerset, those odds aren't good enough. KOSHER CO-OP Coming Next Year . Red Jacket sec. of Ellicott Sign up with housing for entry in Red. Jacket.

And more importantly, because students are at least as guilty of being pussies. Don’t edit out that word because it is the most appropriate way to describe the fearful, slithering creature who is overrunning the University. faculty members really in danger of losing their jobs if they say what they think? 1 doubt it. While I wrote last week that it wasin the best interests of the University that Dr. Ketter not be reappointed to a second five-year term because of his vacuous academic leadership, the idea of him purging dozens of dissident facultymembers is utterly ridiculous. But if he wants to see this campus become alive with faculty and students using again their talents to make this into a progressive Dr. Ketter would be wise to University get out of his Hayes Hall retreat and dispel the fearful atmosphere hanging over this University. Fear Why does this fear exist? Is it because students are so worried about their grades that they won’t contradict a faculty Dissent The faculty should start informing their students that dissent will not bring about lower grades. Everyone is so afraid of not Shout, don't whisper Climate offear prevents people from speaking out by Gary Cohn Campus Editor Jim Morrison died at the age of 27. But for 27 years, Morrison lived an exciting, creative, risk-taking, action-oriented life as the wild man of The Doors. Morrison would have been awkwardly out of place at this University, because he was willing to stand up, take risks and fight. In contrast, students, faculty and administrators at this University live in a constant state of fear. Everything they say is guarded, everything they do has already been carefully calculated as to the potential benefits and punishments. Take, for instance, the news story and commentary The Spectrum did about President Robert Ketter’s evaluation last week. We’d call up faculty members and Dr. Ketter’s Administration colleagues and ask them to assess the job the University President has been doing for the past four years. Silence. - - If you think you’ve been screwed for a grade, go. down to the instructor’s office. Demand to see your test paper and make him carefully explain why he gave you the grade he did.

But do something besides compalin to your friends or write anonymous graffiti on the sidewalks. Hayes Hall is only a short walk from Lockwood Library. Next time you’re dissatisfied with something, march down to Dr. Ketter’s office and tell him. Don’t let his secretaries or assistants stop you. he’ll Demand to see the President probably see you and hopefully he’ll become more aware of what’s really happening here. We’ve paid too high a price for stability. In the endeavor to prevent a repeat of the student demonstrations of the 1960’s, the University has swung into a period of nihilism, devoid of creativity, excitement and risk-taking. - — — Self-censorship Why is everybody so god-damned afraid to say what they believe? Oh, a few of the people interviewed did make statements, but they were afraid to have their names attributed to their comments. As history professor William Allen correctly pointed out: “Self-censorship is censorship in the worst way.” Similarly, while many faculty and some administrators believe that Bernard Gelbaum should be replaced as vice-president for Academic Affairs, few people are willing to tell this directly to Dr. Ketter or stand up in the Faculty-Senatb and speak their mind. I don’t want to make this into a condemnation of the faculty. First, because there are some daring faculty people at this University willing to make a manner; Shout member when he is wrong. And has the tight job market made the faculty so fearful that they are afraid to fight for innovation or against (he things that are blatantly wrong at this school. Why was William Allen the only faculty member willing to put himself on the line and criticize Dr. Ketter? Is it because of his superstar status as one of the nation's top scholars, or because he has the balls to say what he believes? Are less prominent getting an A or not getting into medical school that they passively comply with everything a teacher says, whether it is right or wrong. Then they regurgitate what they think the faculty member wants in their papers- or exams. Incredibly, it doesn't even matter whether the students believe what they are writing. If you disagree with what a professor says in class, stand up and tell him. And don't whisper or talk in a half-apologelical State of semi-coma People who work around here could last a hundred years the way they are going. Never rock the boat, please everybody, and do nothing. Let them live to 150 who cares?

An Advocacy Committee of the United Cerebral Palsy Association (UCPA) was recently formed in Buffalo and their goal is to change building codes so that buildings and their facilities will be available to everyone including those in wheelchairs. The Advocacy Committee is composed of and works for people confined to wheelchairs. It is almost impossible for these individuals to enter most buildings as they now exist and virtually impossible for them to use the public facilities that most people take for granted. There are many instances where, if the handicapped individual is able to get into a building, he or she cannot use a pay telephone since the phones are usually too high, or located in a booth which will not accommodate a wheelchair. Most drinking fountains also pose problems for the handicapped because they are constructed for the average standing adult. — “Building Barriers Week" was one of the first actions taken by the Advocacy Committee to make people aware of the general lack of consideration toward the handicapped. Another action taken by the committee was to send letters to fifteen Common Council members discussing “Building Barriers Week” and making them aware of such problems. A short while ago there was a change in the building codes. This change mandated that all proposed building and all buildings undergoing extensive remodeling must make adequate provisions for the handicapped. The Advocacy Committee feels this is a strong step, but they are concerned with the many buildings that are now standing. Most business transactions the disabled make in these buildings must be parried on by proxy. The Advocacy Committee of the UCPA has no funds and, though they are just getting organized, they forsee no need for this money. Those working for the Committee are involved and committed. They meet once every two weeks and anyone interested is invited to contact Robin Bach through Community Action Corps, Room 220 Norton Hall.

About 15 Interest Group (WNYPIRG) is undergraduate students from this University and others in the area have completed approximately 20 profiles on New York State Assemblymen and Senators. In a statement prepared for the press, Marc Jacobson, project coordinator, said: “The profiles are a step toward responsive, responsible government.” Each profile contains the results of interviews with opposition candidates, community leaders, and a two-hour interview with the legislator himself. The format was adapted from a similar project undertaken by the Connecticut Citizens Action Group, and was applied to all 210 New York State Legislators. “All the information in the profiles are a matter of public record,” Mr. Jacobson said. “All we did was compile THORS.

Some interviews have yet to be completed, and “It is likely the profiles of these legislators will be published without the interview, noting that the profiler waited weeks for a positive response from the legislator,” Mr. Jacobson said.

It was by Bob Mayer SASU Press Service The history of ALBANY student activity fees, - mandatory although a realtively short one, is a long complex background of politics, legal maneuvers, and legislative interference. The first official policy on the collection of student fees was established by the State University Board of Trustees in November, 1967. These guidelines gave SUNY’s official sanction for the collection of voluntary fees. Until the November decision was outlined, most students believed that the fees were fees were mandatory. The collected the the campus Faculty-Student Association and appeared on student bills each semester. Each school’s FSA’s deposited these funds in their own filled with • believed that these fees would be used exclusively for student governments and extra-curricular student activities on the individual campuses. An audit by the State Controller issued in 1966 suggested that this was not occurring. The report noted that at various state schools, local campus were using student monies as auxiliary funds in the operation of the campus administration. The State University of Buffalo FSA purchased 500 acres of Amherst land in 1964 with these student fees, and, in one instance, student fees had been used by a campus to fund his own president inauguration. The audit charged that several Deans of Students knew that prior to 1968, there presidents was a voluntary, not mandatory policy on student fees - yet they failed to inform anyone. Fee challenged After the Controller’s 1966 report was released, a group of University at Albany State questioned the students legitimacy of their student fees being used to support religious organizations on campus. When the campus president requested a legal opinion, students were surprised to learn from the counsel that “these student fees are not mandated by the Board of Trustees, and the state could not force students to pay these fees.” The following semester a voluntary collection was established ibany, but the other campuses, still lacking any guidelines prohibiting student fees, continued to collect as before. As more students began to realize that there was no existing laws witbin University governance mandating collection of fees. State University officials started to explore the policy. On May 9, 1968, the Trustees established the existing guidelines governing the collection and distribution process that is currently being observed on all state campuses. The guidelines called for the individual to conduct a campuses referendum every four years to determine whether collection of fees would be voluntary or mandatory. It limited use of funds to four broad categories: recreational, social, cultural and educational. For the first time, all responsibility, for fees would be in the hands of students. The only stipulation was that SUNY Chancellor would establish a ceiling on how high activity fees could go. A figure of $70 per was set, (1 he Student Assembly Executive Committee recently urged Chancellor Ernest Boyer to academic year statewide raise the ceiling to $100.) Fees funding radical activities? But political activism soon came to SUNY campuses, and taxpayers and legislators alike began to raise questions about funding. Where was money coming from that produced radical literature, organized demonstrations and provided transportation to and from anti-war rallies? In early May 1969, President Nixon ordered American troops to invade Cambodia. Virtually in the state experienced serious disruptions. Many SUNY campuses recessed classes early. The public asked more questions. Whe was paying every campus —continued on page 26— �Electronic system is proposed for Ellicott by Victor Gulofta Spectrum Staff Writer As part of a new electronic security system proposed by Campus Security, television cameras may soon be used to deter vandalism in the Amherst Campus parking lots. “The lots are completely obstructed from the view of the roadways,” explained Lee Griffin, assistant director of Campus Security. “The architects have designed mounds around the lots with the landscape, trees and shrubs, and this makes visability from the roadways into the parking area impossible,” he said. The increased possibility of thefts and assaults necessitates the utilization of the low-level TV equipment, Mr. 6riffln explained. The closed-curcuit system will be just sensitive enough to detect and televise any suspicious movements in the parking lot during the evening hours. Tipped off by television. Campus Security would then be able to take immediate action if a threatening situation arose. The installation of electronic identification card detectors for the dorm entrances is also being considered for next year. Astronomical costs “With a total of 84 entrance doors at EUicott," Mr. Griffin c&h'fTniied,' ‘It would require 84 Security aides on duty for 12 or 16 hours a night at $2.50 per hour to maintain a decent security. The cost is astronomical.” Mr. Griffin explained that under the electronic card-key system, a dorm resident would simply display his dorm identification card at the entrance, the machine would then identify it and allow the student to enter. Without a card, no unauthorized person would be able to enter the building. The long-term expense of operating this system is believed to be considerably cheaper than hiring and paying Security aides. There is much concern whether students will be receptive to this “machine replaces man” approach to curtailing campus crime and unauthorized entrances. Some fear the use of such modern electronic gadgetry at the Amherst Campus could generate the long-feared 1984-ish atmosphere. expected, Mr. Griffin replied: “We hope not... if we implement some kind of security system in the dormitory, we’re certainly going to need the cooperation of the occupants of that dormitory.” Charles Brunskill, a technical assistance coordinator who advocates the TV surveillance systems,, remarked: “We don’t want to restrict in any way, shape I or form anybody’s mobility think that students will support anything that will offer them the mobility that they deserve, and I think they’ll strongly reject anything that’s going to infringe on their rights.” \ ... • You’re serious about photography So is the Canon F-t To you. photography is more than a hobby.

They’re hurrying to do their best to make this campus beautiful, arranging the grass and trees the Way all well-landscaped modem campuses should be arranged, with a patch of green here and there to keep you aesthetically pleased. Out across the barren Amherst wastelands, past the rocks and mud and construction equipment, looms Ellicott the great and ugly. That the Joseph P. Ellicott Complex makes a mildly interesting multi-level fun house. I’ll concede. Why anyone believes there’s something magically creative about this modern architectural monster, why anyone thinks that living there will be anything besides a large, noisy, disorganized riot, is thankfully, beyond me. - Brick-on-brick Geometric design and plenty of brick are architecturally chic. Still, I’m not impressed. It’s very futuristic and Star Trekky, but I don’t believe it can improve the quality of dormitory life. It will bring you together, the saying goes, through common experience, i.e., suffering. By this logic, they ought to have built us a shanty town on the shores of Ellicott Creek, which would have improved the quality of our suffering immeasurably. Speaking of suffering, most Amherst residents regard the buses as the absolute worst part of their experience. Everyday, the “bluebird of happiness” shits on your head by means of substandard brakes, contradicting schedules, and thickheaded drivers. There are tons of annoyances, big and small, like rushing out to find the 3:35 has left four minutes ahead of schedule or simply waiting, waiting, waiting for one of those phantom coaches that leave you standing out in the cold. Comic relief The one and only bus service saint was driver Lloyd Simpson, Amherst’s popular humorist, philosopher, pervert, and devil-may-care driving fool. He was suspended by Bluebird in March, and has quietly faded from memory. Have 1 been overly critical? Are these complaints growing tiresome? Let me qualify it all by saying I’m probably glad I’ve lived at Amherst this year. There were several undeniably positive experiences. It was different. Governor’s did from time to time have a spirit of its own, even if it was based on our mutual frustrations. It’s difficult to describe dormitory life. What single event might characterize a complete experimental milieu? Maybe it’s my suitemate pulling off his fetid sweatsocks, chugging down a Budweiser, and discoursing on dialectical Marxism. No, that’s ridiculous. I shouldn’t have even tried.

I owe it to someone, at least myself, to contribute something more inspiring to the Tmal issue of the semester than a lousy photograph. And if no one else bothers to read this egocentric column, it will mean something to me personally because I’m feeling a little tipsy and writing is always fun when the writer is under the influence of a rum and coke. (It’s no secret that I can’t hold my alcohol anyway.) One year ago today, I was sitting in the corner, as Campus Editor-designee, feverishly cranking out a boring story about I-don’t-evcn-remember-what at 11 a.m. It was like a heated race with the clock: which would run out first, the day or me? Who knew that starting in September, I would be spending more time in Norton Union than in my room, the shower, classes, and bed collectively? Home of the hacks Norton Union. Home of the political hacks, hustlers, hot tickets, hippies, hitters, and hotheads. One renowned Norton Hall fanatic, who shall remain anonymous for posterity’s sake (everybody always dumps the burden on posterity), once referred to Norton as “chaos-oriented.” This same superstar blamed the campus newspapers for perpetuating the chaos by delivering the papers outside the building. Sometimes I think Norton should be sealed off to the outside world to let all the paranoid personalities enjoy their “elite” pseudo-community in peace and turmoil. 1 must have lost 20 pounds running up and down the stairs.

But they would rather wait for the elevator, which takes about 20 monotonous seconds between floors. Just another way to waste time. Journalistsand politicians Those 20 pounds (refer to the first sentence of the preceding paragraph) were offset by the 20 pounds gained from eating the wide assortment of disgusting Norton food. The coffee in the third floor machine isn’t too vile, though; however, you are better off buying the pastries fresh in the Rat than from the machines. Plastic wrap gives it that fossilized flavor. The Tiffin Room on Friday afternoon between 4:30 and 5:30 p.m. is good for at least one table of political hacks. Believe me, I should know. You can’t beat the fried dams. It’s fun calling those connected with the Student Association “political hacks,” especially since newspaper people are hacks in their own right. This is not a public confession, mind you. 1 wouldn’t admit to being a hack in a million years, although I’ve admitted to being a jock, a the same bullshit all over again, even slob, a marriage-hater, and a bitch.

It’s not eating be pretty dull without more to fill up the Avenue Subs two nights out of three or personally conferring with “prominent members of the University community” or getting a Buffalo press card. In fact, I often wonder whether being Campus Editor has a ‘best part’ when you realize that hardly anyone even reads the articles you put countless hours into, and whatever yod write, you are always accused of being biased. That’s human nature, 1 guess. You can never satisfy anyone. And as long as you remember that, you can sit back and enjoy whatever you are doing. Frankly, I really like to type. (That’s why I’m bothering to spend an hour writing this column off the top of my head.) Seriously, since no one will read this column (including the Coalition), I can cry out in print that 1 would have put up with time than eating, sleeping and occasionally getting up for Classes. It’s plSin nice to be devoted to something, however little, insignificant, or thankless. What are extrinisic rewards anyway? Just something to give the ego a holiday. You would be surprised at the reward and laughter one can get at reading one’s own typographical errors in print.

But for all the people who claipi they can’t write, or the men of science who scorn us English majors, sit down some time when no one is looking and play around with the words.

How do I get you to respond to the pathos of the situation when you are worried about mundane things like reality? Anxiety is hard enough to get people to look at in the first place, without you should be able to drag not-so-red herrings across the path. In some cases it may be more of a cantankerous whale than a herring.

When by Steese I st0p trying to hide from it though, the reality usually turns out to be that the semester is actually over, that once again I have not accomplished all the things that 1 set out to do in a certain period of time. This is a reasonably consistent pattern with me. The ability to schedule accomplishment with precision is something which 1 fail to demonstrate with remarkable consistency. Has there ever been a semester in which expectations outran accomplishment? In my own case, it seems very doubtful that the reverse has ever happened, at least I do not recall being astounded at the end of a semester by how much I had accomplished in that time. How consistent a problem it is for the rest of humanity is something you might wish to judge but clearly, if you and I agree, we have a trend in the data. It would probably be a bore to get everything done on schedule all the time anyway. So my projections about the end of semesters and years involve feeling bad. On the one hand you have the hassles talked about last week people going away and all that schmalz, and on the other there is the work problem i.e., the weight of all the things left to do plus all the things that have yet to be done which won’t get done can amount to a considerable drag when you suddenly find it on your shoulders.

How is the student body to change its conceptions and actions in regards to shoplifting and stealing on its own campuses, when members of the faculty do not condemn these actions. This shoplifting encompasses not only the school’s property but also other students’ private belongings. Can not a professor leave out his students’ papers for them to pick up without having them stolen by other students. One of the best papers, in my opinion, that I have written was stolen by another student. As if this was not bad enough, when I inquired as to what could be done to regain my paper (it is the only copy of this paper) I was told: along “Oh, all the best papers are always stolen” with a statement of: “What do you want us to do about it, put a reward out for it?” Sir, the actions of the student body cannot be expected to change until such time as the faculty changes its attitudes of disregard.

Of which I am eternally jealous. Bah! I suppose that there should indeed be something happy about the beginning of the summer, as opposed to-the end of the semester. That there are ahead longish open stretches of time in which to play in large green meadows, climb about on rocks, swim a lot, and other such entertainments. But there does seem to be a block against getting into such good feelings when there is the reality of the end of the semester garbage to go through. Because there is the truism of academic crap to be shoveled into one bin or another, and the necessity, on the part of at least some of us to say goodbye to people who have been, or could have been, important to us. It must be nice to function, as the current white house proprietor does, in a world of deletions. To be able to deal with'your life in that way must be really wonderful experience. “Gee, remember the summer of 19 unintelligible, when you got [expletive] unintelligible by unintelligible, in the unintelligible?” “Only vaguely.” Funny how it looks like repression, if it were psychological, and just plain weird if it were any other court case in the land. Where else could you imagine the defendant in a case trying to submit his typescript version of what all the other witnesses in the case had to say, and being hurt if people were suspicious, even though some of the witnesses said that what he wrote down wasn’t what they said. It boggles the mind. Step this way ladies and gentlemen, see the Washington side show. Can you image the fund of trivia questions that this whole mess should generate in another 20 or 30 years? Who were the first people indicted in the Watergate investigation? Trivia question, hell. 1 can’t even remember the answer now. Which brings us one more digression closer to the end of another semester. Where were we before we digressed off into intellipbility? (again!) Oh, yes, on the well avoided topic of people getting away and things ending and why is it easier for some of us to notice things ending than things beginning. Change is, after all, change; and any situation involving it would probably reasonably be seen to have a variety of interpretations. So how come one of the few places I approach consistency involves being really suspicious of endings? Couldn’t be that you are just a natural-created pessimist, could it, Eric? So it seems as if there is relatively little left to dawdle over.

Two areas to which in the past we have looked for educational the leadership in some important measure President/Higher Administration and students now seem to me demonstrably unviable, and make Faculty responsibility all the heavier. 1 confess that during the past 25 years in the profession I have, like others, expected that major initiatives, major changes in direction within a university could come from getting the right man at the top. I shared something of the notion that a university in the doldrums could be launched under full sail by selecting the finest scholar-administrator on the horizon. That delusion, as far as 1 am concerned, has been laid to rest. I am almost prepared to challenge anyone to cite any such performance by a university President in the past 15 to 20 years. Most presidents have~been corporate or establishment types; like bank facades, they have been chosen to give a sense of tradition and security to otherwise dubious enterprises within; most of them and I would be the last to denigrate their have intelligence, good will, or hard work lashed to the rhythms of budget and to educating successive waves of regents, chancellors, community potentates, and legislators; most of them have been highly qualified, if only occasionally successful fund-raisers or morale boosters. Most of them, quite frankly, have had very little to do with the university’s interior intellectual decor. Why Faculty here seems to place so much hope in selecting or reelecting a President is a little beyond me; the process can’t be ignored, certainly; but Presidents don’t come with panaceas; they come mostly with limits something that is worth noting, in fairness to them. The corollary to the notion that while Faculty know what better education requires, budgetary stringencies (surrogate for the shortcomings of the President-) preclude it. Sometimes, this is true; more often it is a lazy, Great faculties and faculty members through the past have functioned far better than we with far fewer resources of almost every kind.

While the validity of the information contained on this so-called memo is indeed controversial, it is nonetheless very suggestive. For instance, it projects that as many as 7,000 students per day will be riding the new rapid transit system (presently in the design stages) between the Main St. campus and the new Amherst campus in order to get to and fro classes. Some might ask “why would students pay for rapid transit when they can ride the free inter-campus buses?” The answer to that one is that once the rapid transit is built the University plans to discontinue its free bus service between campuses.

Russell Schoenwetter, President The Committee to Get Buckley Ext. 2600, North Campus Page eighteen The Spectrum Monday, 6 May 1974 . . - Draft advice To the Editor. The Military and Draft Counseling Center is continuing in operation and needs continued support for its work. As always, the Center provides counseling, charging no fee to all individuals who desire it who are facing a military obligation. The Center offers them information on what all their alternatives are, and the consequences of choosing any of those alternatives. And once the individual has made his or her choices, the Center provides competent step-by-step aid in carrying out that choice. Neither the draft, nor the military, has ceased to exist. And men and women continue to find themselves in difficult situations as a result. Selective Service is not inducting anyone, but it continues to require all 18-year olds and older to regist; future draft call. In a letter dated April 27, the Assistant Attorney General of the U.S. Justice Department has instructed all U.S. attorneys around the country to seek indictments against all young men who fail to register on time with the draft board following their 18th birthday unless they can show a “compelling reason” for registering late. Many 18-year olds do not know of this policy a policy which upon conviction will make them and many 18-year olds do not convicted felons even know that the draft system is something they must register for under the law. Like so many of us, they believe “the draft is over.” Clearly, the government feels differently. The Selective Service System recently was given 55 million dollars for fiscal 1974. And the Justice Department intends to see that the Selective Service is not ignored by the_ young. Men bom in 1954 who have been assigned lottery numbers 1 through 95 are currently being - - reclassified into class 1-A. Whether or not the inductions start again, and many experts believe that shortages of men in the military will force a resumption of inductions in 1974, the draft is a continuing problem for young men which they much hope. At best, university presidents can maintain elements of continuity and stability which contribute to the matrix in which educational advances may take shape. It strikes me as a lost cause to look to student bodies generally for great educational initiatives cither. However delightful students may be as individuals, however fine their youth and natural intelligence, they are what they empty wells subject to the always have been vagaries of the culture at large; subject to fluctuations, carrying many from rhetorical adolescent radicalisms (an assault, of course, on and Momma) through intellectual Poppa indifference to any pursuit requiring time and disciplined effort. Even when highly motivated, as many are, they are after all here to learn, not really to solve general educational problems, which in the first instance they are paying us to be active and knowledgeable about. Educationally, whatever future there may be budgets to the contrary, is up to Faculty contrary, students to the to the presidents contrary. The validity of this proposition is manifested on this campus by the English Department, whose outstanding members identify the University and signalize its real and potential quality in ways no President of the moment or regime of the week may. Of other distinguished scholars or departments on campus, the same holds true. Thus, upgrading educational-intellectual life is a matter nowadays of “unit integrity.” If Departments (units) cooperatively put their own houses in order, reorganize personnel, shift the best teachers to the critical courses, provide the environment for the best scholars’ research and writing, isolate and delimit the activities of their marginal people, make the best, and only the best, professional recruitments, encourage experimental courses that are taught maturely and are not aimed at capturing elusive FTE’s or titillating the masses, something can be done. None of these efforts make sense unless paralleled by an upgrading of the rigor, maturity, and performance standards required of students and on this score, areas of this campus have a very long way to go. Upgrading is not a matter of whether msturcutors grade by letter, by number, be reading entrails, or any other technique. Rather it is a matter of requiring performance from students, all extenuating circumstances aside. Requirement of performance, finally, demands that each Faculty member be fully aware of what/ie or she is all about as a scholar-teacher: And. thereby hangs our tale. - * - - - cannot adequately deal with in the adequate information. The Counseling Center has begun program of military counseling for men who are in the active duty service, the absence of in earnest a and women reserves and National Guard, and ROTC. Without a draft, the military has begun an enormous advertising and recruitment campaign to “attract” enlistments. It is a recruitment program which is often misleading about the realities of military service, and has also been shown to rely heavily on very questionable especially promises by recruiters which practices are not fully accurate. The results have been for many to join and only later have the truth forcefully brought home to them. Like the draft, the military often causes serious problems for people. Many men and women in the military develop medical and psychiatric problems; others find that dependents at home are suffering extreme hardships in their absence. Yet others find that the reality of military service, and the mission of the military, runs counter to their conscience. But as with the draft, the military provides little information about how to resolve these conflicts. While legal channels exist, most are ignorant of them. Instead, they resort to solutions of their own imagination which are often in violation of military regulations and statutes. The results can be and often are very harmful. Thus, the Center has reorganized itself to be known as the Military and Draft Counseling Center of Buffalo, offering help to those facing the draft system and the military system.

This simple statement of fact and aspiration has a ring of novelty in this University. The Colleges have for so long operated in an atmosphere of uncertainty that it will take some time for them to adjust to stability as a prospect. Of course, because the chartering process will not begin until the fall, the futures of individual Colleges are still in doubt. But the fact of a future for the system as a whole, and for most of the Colleges, is now quite clear. The Chartering Committee of the University is now in operation: a situation which was in some doubt even a month ago. After a brief period of running in, it is likely that this vehicle for delivering newly-chartered Colleges will‘move forward quickly. At the first meeting last week, there was some sparring among the representatives of the various constituencies, but by the end of that meeting all the members had agreed to work together. The Colleges, the Faculty-Senate and Hayes Hall had all responded in good faith to the challenge which the Prospectus has put to them. A good omen for the future. The past couple of months have also been marked by evidence that there has been a significant change in faculty attitude toward the Colleges: most of the Colleges are now attracting numbers of regular SUNY faculty who are going to be teaching through the Colleges or participating in decision-making within particular Colleges. The pattern of faculty participation in specific Colleges will vary: from an advisory board with occasional teaching in College Z, to co-teaching in most courses in College F (Tolstoy), to 100% faculty teaching in Vico College. But the vigor of faculty participation is very real. This enthusiastic response from regular University faculty has come from all parts of the University. At least one department deserves special mention: in the past few weeks, Leslie Fiedler and the English Department have, as a group, decided to commit themselves to assist the Colleges. This commitment manifests itself in the participation of faculty members through cross-listing and co-teaching, through personal association with particular Colleges, and, most importantly, through department counsel to students to enjoy the educational opportunities offered by the Colleges. This faculty commitment is being received enthusiastically by most of the Colleges, although a few of them still view faculty with a cold eye indeed. With some luck, by the end of the next term, both regular faculty and Colleges faculty and students will have come to share the insight reported to me by one of the most active leaders in the Colleges: “When I first started talking to faculty about coming into the College to prepare for chartering,” he said, “I was quite skeptical; but now I am convinced that this exercise has been one of the best our College has ever tried. We shall certainly be a better College because of it.” Although this assessment may not yet be widely shared. 1 am convinced that by the birthdate of the new Collegiate System in January 1975, all of the Colleges will agree. The genius of the new Prospectus is that it has provided the occasion for the Faculty to stop viewing the Colleges from outs'de and come in. This new participation by the regular faculty will have a meaningful impact on the political processes of this University; indeed, it already has. In the past the regular faculty members have viewed the slinging matches between the Colleges and the Administration as a spectator sport. Now, with the commitment of larger numbers of regular faculty to teach in the Colleges, the faculty will see its interests at stake in the Colleges and will support the Colleges’ needs in competition for resources and moral support. Already the Faculty-Senate and individual faculty members have been actively lobbying for greater financial support for the Colleges. Of course the financial position of the Colleges is still precarious. We have received some additional funds, though not yet enough to call the financial future of the Colleges secure. But it is important for all Of us to remember that in a system of small gross budget increases for the University and perhaps in the not too distant Irving Spitzherg future a steady-state budget, increases for the Colleges must come out of other people’s pockets on this campus. The University must give up some existing activities in order to support the Colleges. This decision cannot be made by Hayes Hall alone, but must reflect a decision on the part of the larger University community that the Colleges are an education venture deserving of support. There is every indication that the University community may be willing to make this decision. In order for this decision to have a meaningful impact in the foreseeable future, it will have to manifest itself in time to influence the 1975-76 budget. To justify a larger commitment of resources from the University, the Colleges will have to deal with a major problem:- at present they serve only a very small percentage of the undergraduate student body. These numbers must increase dramatically. If the Colleges cannot appeal to a larger percentage of the student body, then we cannot justify a larger commitment of resources. 1 fully expect to sec a large and diverse student population enroll in College courses in the fall. And the residential Colleges should attract large numbers of residential students. Six Colleges will become residential. By the time the doors open in Ellicott in September, these six Colleges will have substantial residential programs to offer students living and learning in the new facilities. At present, there are a number of problems with the allocation of space to the Colleges, but, with same goodwill, these can be worked out. A physical plant designed for Colleges should have enough space allocated to the Collegiate system so that the Colleges can conduct a high quality residential program. Most of what 1 have said so far deals with the present and the immediate future. So I should comment briefly on the long-range expectations for the Colleges. In the next two or three years, this University will see the continued development of a group of academic residential and non-residential institutions which will attempt to meet the needs of both students and faculty in unconventional but academically credible ways. The numbers of Colleges will not be very large: even over a three-year period, it would be surprising if the number exceeded 15 to 20. The emphasis will be on strengthening a moderately-sized system of Colleges. These Colleges will continue to be marked by diversity: diversity in academic interest, diversity in student constituencies, diversity in involvement with the larger communities, diversity in residential and non-residential character. And this diversity should become the most apparent characteristic of the whole system. At present the Colleges, though in fact quite heterogeneous, are seen as a homogeneous group. The fallacy of this present conception will be proved by the long-run future development of the system. Over the next few years the Colleges will have to be careful to serve both residential and non-residential constituencies. This is a major responsibility in a predominantly non-residential University. The University must continue to support such undertakings as College Z with its service to policemen, and Women Studies College with its extensive programs for Buffalo women. And residential Colleges such as Rachel Carson must be encouraged to continue their academic and public interest activities, while at the same time developing a residential community. There is no necessary contradiction between residential community and service to the larger constituencies of the University and the society; but resolution of competing demands must be made with the needs of both in mind. The greatest service the Colleges have provided to date, and must continue to provide in the future, is that of an alternative model of university education. Insofar as the Colleges meet the challenge of chartering, they will more effectively offer this alternative and have a more significant impact on the larger University, because they will bring into their internal operation a broader sample of the various members of the University. The students and faculty who in the past have sat on the sidelines as spectators will now be actively interested in the life of the Colleges. The major risk for the future is that the Colleges will continue to communicate a garrison mentality and that the rest of the University will give them reason to do so. The actions of all of those involved in the University and the Colleges will be critical for the next eight months. All parties have operated in good faith during the constitution of the Chartering Committee. Continued good faith by all through participation of the Colleges, through commitment of faculty energy, and through meaningful support in terms of coin, space and good will be the Administration will help everyone make present decisions which augur well for the long term future. But a mistake by any one of the parties could have adverse consequences which far transcend a particular action. The next few months will be precarious; but the future is definitely secure. — — Monday. 6 May 1974 .The Spectrum VsM 3 yahnoM . inGidaeqc 'J r i r . nineteen epis I �Money The diesel engine a save on gasoline by David Fessender Spectrum Staff Writer The price of gasoline in the United States is cheaper than in most countries of the world. Even with the recent price hikes, we still pay only 1/2 to 1/3 of the European price. This tremendous cost has induced the European companies to produce cars that save fuel or run Peugeot, Audi and on cheaper fuels. Three of these companies Mercedes have been using diesel engines with amazing results. The diesel is a modification of the standard gasoline engine. It has a high compression ratio, which means the pressure in the engine is extreme, almost three times as much as a standard engine. When the piston builds up this pressure, the fuel is injected into the combustion chamber. The high pressure causes the fuel to explode without the use of a spark plug. This eliminates the need for an ignition system, and the fuel injection eliminates the carburetor. But these simplications are less important than its fuel naracteristics. The high pressure in the engine creates a higher thermal efficiency. In other words, the same amount of fuel in a diesel does more work than in a standard engine. This is how the Peugeot averaged 37.3 miles per gallon in a coast to coast economy run. — — The rights of homosexuals according to law discussed such laws as the New York Sodomy Law, which many feel is used unfairly to prosecute homosexuals. James D. Haynes, a biology professor at the State University College at Buffalo, and Bonnie Strunk, a Syracuse Attorney, discussed their experiences regarding employment discrimination as members of the gay community. The employment discrimination panel also mentioned methods used by employers to discriminate against gay people and how to fight these tactics. “Homosexuality per se implies no impariment in judgment, stability reliability or general social or vocational capabilities,” maintains the American Psychiatric Association, which has recently removed homosexuality from its list of mental disorders. “And yet, solely on the basis of their sexual preferences, gay men and women lose occupational or employment opportunities every day.” These were among the opening remarks of a day-long conference on Gay Rights and the. Law sponsored Friday by the Student Bar Association. Shelly Convissar, a law student and conference coordinator explained that the purpose of the conference was “to give law students a chance to understand the problems of the gay community,” one of the least mentioned but most legally suppressed groups today. Gay student hassles Howard Mann, professor at the State University of Buffalo Law School, spoke on hassles gay law students may go through when applying for admittance to the Bar Association.

Frank Zappa Apostrophe (Discreed Records) Frank Zappa is a weapon to be used against people who don’t know who he is. That would make him a tool. Therefore he should be collectively owned. You therefore have an inherent right to steal his albums and sneak into his concerts. He named his son Dreasel Zappa. The next time he entered consciousness, he was discovered to be a human genius. Meaning he was a genius but could get burnt out in a very bad way. That is how he will have his second autobiography written. He has no emotions and his music suffers for it. However, non-creative manipulative genius has its own context. Delve on. The Mothers of Invention was a cop. The Fugs. It doesn’t matter. Don't get hung, it’s just a rumor.

He formed bands and dissolved them, put out horseshit albums and got rich. Waste, waste, waste! As the music world stagnated, so did Frank. Nothing happening in the news, so to speak.

Often referred to as the “Harlem Dance," the Dance Theater of Harlem took to the stage at Kleinhans and kept everyone excited for two-and-a-half to hours. Arthur Mitchell is a professional ballet dancer. The fact that he was black was unique. It seems that blacks didn’t excel in ballet, or perhaps were never encouraged to but after becoming an accomplished ballet dancer, Mitchell went to Manhattan’s ghetto and started what is now known as the Harlem Dance troupe. Basically, he took kids off the street and taught them how to dance. His accomplishment can be fully appreciated at a performance. Let me set the scene for you. We arrived at Kleinhans IS minutes before curtain just enough time for a bourbon and a ginger ale. It seemed that everyone in the audience was really decked out for this gig. Real highbrow, you know: “Oh yes, darling, the ballet is so artful.” And all the women were walking to and from the water fountain to show off their new dresses, while the Buffalo Philharmonic could be heard tuning up. — — whether you are a connoisseur of the arts or ji some poor slob at SUNYAB, you knew something great was happening on that stage Friday night, even if you didn't recognize it specifically. choreograph ly piece with some sort of set design, consisting of two circular disks of about a three-foot diameter made out of mirror. The stage opens with two dancers one male, one female atop the circular disks respectively. This piece was modern ballet, not the typical traditional ballet. Modem ballet is really quite beuatiful. Basically, the dancers still use the ballet technique, but this traditional concept is merged with the modem concept of expression. The result is beautiful, breathtaking and emotionally moving at times. “Bisofera” continues with just the two dancers, one dressed in black and the other in white. They go through some incredible movement together, ending in what could have been a gymnast demonstration. 1 guess you can tell I liked it. But it really was great. I'd.like to quote Marc Lietz in the following sentence. I think he says it perfectly: “Ah the Dance, what finer art hath man create? To express ourselves ultimately; the fusion of body with soul!” Special thanks must go to Dale Colton for helping make this article possible. - - Well-trained athletes lighting creates the mood Every one of those, dancers is a well-trained athlete; The program was four different pieces, each one their bodies have been tuned so well that there isn’t a consisting of at least three different movements and each muscle in them which doesn't respond when called upon lasting about 20 to 30 minutes.

Gates over the stores are up; lunar-orange sodium light smashes the broken windows and yawning cavities of half-bulldozed walls. Pieces of stone are found the next day smooth and polished with fine carvings by the skeltered junkies. A cactus grows from each, their prickly spines clawing those inquisitive enough to go near them. The earth trembles subway sounds: the cacti grow and crack the glossy stone. And when someone realizes there are names, “Goddamit, look at that. There are fucking names on the rocks,” everyone gathers around trying to grab their own. Gunshots and two drop. Shiny blades and three are slashed. The names mean nothing. Mr. Softee takes precedence over them. An old lady’s trained-to-kill beagle claws at the barred window, teased by dripping vanilla ice cream. Swelling symphonies of screams, shouts, yells, bury the names just as they have been for the past thirty years. Let them rest like the cratered lots and the bingo board signs. Forget them, there’s no picture, no image, because they’re going, going, gone like the serene shells of cracker-jack buildings lining the street. Sunsets over Mars Bars and crumpled cans, so the story goes. But it just didn’t happen that way. Nothing is ever that - - peaceful, except for the bodies tucked under the boardwalk, trying to remarkably hard to catch glimpses of the feet in between the slats of wood.

Hie Spectrum Monday, 6 May 1974 . . �The name of the Western New York Public Interest Group has received considerable notoriety in recent days due to the involvement of its members in the “Coalition.” While we in the spotlight of public attention which has Coalition, we feel that it has tended to cast shadows upon WNYPIRG’s real work, which has continued throughout these budgetary crises. We arc therefore taking this opportunity to clarify the purposes and objectives of WNYPIRG. One of the results of the student revolutions of the ’60’s was an increased awareness on the part of students of the society in which they live. Students began to demand that their studies be related to the real world which existed outside the confines of college campuses. Organizations like WNYPIRG were formed to fill these needs. The public interest research group provides students with an outlet whereby their societal concerns can be channeled into productive activity. Students working in PIRG’s have produced important research documents which have resulted in changes in public policy. On our own campus, students have been involved in such research ventures as a soon-to-be-completed study of the New York State Legislature, in which individual profiles of each Senator and Assemblyman were produced. A “sex discrimination in employment agencies” study is also nearing completion. Some projects which students may recognize as having a more immediatebenefit to them include: a mass transit study (in conjunction with CAC) which examined the effects of the new'mass transit system on students; a supermarket pricing survey, which indicated to students which local grocery stores offered the most reasonable juices; a bike chain quality study, still in progress, which will indicate the safest types of bike chains and locks; a telephone study aimed at finding ways of reducing the costs of telephone service to students; and this is only a partial list. PIRG aims through its projects to confront areas in society which are in real need of reform (the legislature and the Public Service Commission for example), to examine these areas in detail, to suggest ways of improving their function, and to implement these suggestions. Along the way students gain knowledge and experience, and the community (including the University community) is better served. At the present time WNYPIRG’s viability as an organization is being threatened. WNYPIRG was the first public interest group established in New York State. In the three years of our existence, we have seen PIRG offices on other college and university campuses grow and prosper. Syracuse University, for example, supports a paid staff of three; Queens College has a functioning office which receives $80,000 from its students yearly. SUNY Oswego, with a student population of 7,000, has allocated $15,000 to a newly-opened PIRG office, while SUNY Binghamton has allocated $18,000. Here in Buffalo we are still functioning on the most limited level. In order to continue to function in a manner consonant with our ideals and objectives, it will be necessary for WNYPIRG to hire two professional and staff persons. This staff will serve to coordinate research efforts and to provide the kind of rigorous standards needed to produce solid research. They will serve, as no student could, as advisors, teachers, and as legal counsel. They will set standards to which student work must conform. They will contribute their expertise, and importantly, they will provide continuity in what is essentially a transient student community, renewing itself every four years. There is virtually no limit to the kinds and numbers of projects which can be undertaken by a fully staffed, functioning PIRG. It depends only upon the numbers and dedication of students. It is our hope that more and more students will undertake meaningful research projects under the auspices of WNYPIRG, but this can only happen if WNYPIRG is supported by the University community. WNVPIRG welcome been focused on the -* Nothing, a Cynicism is all that remains four years after Kent State - improving the quality of people’s lives corny as had been safely dispelled by a they now seem by Larry Kraftowitz — Campus Editor — government and its President. Amid all the fanfare about how the nation is being cleansed of an increasingly repressive government through the Watergate investigations, a certain numbness is hanging in the air. After a decade of watching American forces bomb and burn peasant villages in Asia; after hearing testimony by Attica defendantsabout arbitrary shootings, reprisals and torture; and after watching crowd disorder turn to tragedy at Kent State University exactly four years ago, it just isn’t that easy to respond with Apathy widespread Since then, the pattern has been all too clear. In 1971, an Ohio Grand Jury absolved the National Guardsmen of any blame, and Attorney General John Mitchell decided not to pursue the matter any further. The same students who only one year before had forced the premature shutdown of major campuses across the country appeared to be thinking more about jobs and dollars and less about Vietnam, emotion. Cambodia, ROTC, Allison Krause, Sandra Lee I remember how my appetite dissappeared the Scheur, Jeffrey Glenn Miller and William Schroeder. In 1973, the country’s emotional level appeared first time 1 read this account of the 1970 Kent State to be on the rise. The bold investigative reporting of murders by United Press International (UPI) Carl Berstein and Bob Woodward was carrying the correspondent Robert E. Corbett: "I noticed one demonstrator lying on the term “Watergate” to the forefront of people’s ground,” wrote Corbett on May 4, 1970. “Several of thoughts impeachment proceedings were initiated his comrades stood by, some crying, and others against a President who seemed to have something to hide, and Attorney General Elliott Richardson angered to the point of incoherency. He had a gunshot wound in his hip the size of a half-dollar and reopened the investigation of the Kent State murders. was barely conscious. “A quick look around confirmed three similar scenes. All three were men and all seemed to have been shot in the lower abdomen. All bled profusely. “One victim lay in a pool of blood on a concrete walkway. As I got closer, I saw he had his head split open by a bullet, his eyes were crossed and blood was pouring from his mouth and nose.” Movement ended Kent State drove us to the peak of emotional outrage; but it also proved to be the straw that broke the peace movement’s back. The nationwide protests which ensued after the killings were probably the most frenzied of the entire antiwar movement. But the protestors crammed all their emotional fury into the space of a few short days, and in the end were left without a reserve. Within days, the Kent State campus deserted except for a handful of sheriff’s officers, National Guardsmen and State Police on patrol had become static and sterile; the peace movement would soon follow suit. By summer’s end, Kent State had faded into the innermost recesses of the American consciousness. Instead of picking up where they left off, thousands of frustrated young students had found a comfortable refuge in cynicism. Years of fruitless had simply climaxing with Kent State protest left them emotionally played out. Any idealistic dreams they might have had of righting wrongs and Ethics of experimentation by through the committees. “You know what doesn’t get through the committees. When you use the word ‘shock.’ But shock is usually not painful and it’s external just a quick zap.” He added: “But the real dangerous kinus of things are the subtle things.” For instance, he explained that anticipation of shock is much worse than the actual shock; It can ruin somebody.” “How can you describe or detect the situations that are going to grunch people the worst and have an effect on the person [ed - - — - —continued from page 3 . As recently as this year, indictments were brought against Richard Nixon’s closest aides and eight National Guardsmen were indicted for the Kent State murders. Dark events But June 6 will mark the second anniversary of the Watergate break-in. John Mithcell and Maurice Stans have been acquitted of 15 counts of obstruction of justice, perjury and conspiracy. President Nixon has repeatedly succeeded in delaying the House Judiciary Committee’s impeachment ivestigation. The eight National Guardsmen will still have to stand trial for the shootings at Kent State. The validity of the Warren’s Commission’s report on the assasination of John F. Kennedy has been seriously questioned, but no legislator has had the guts to reopen it. Any belief that faith in the country’s institutions is being restored must therefore be Seriously questioned. Instead of spreading optimism, let alone interest, recent events have only forced people to take things even less seriously. Nothing surprises anyone anymore. And believing that more young people are more satisfied with American institutions than they were as measured by the almost total in the sixties nonexistence of campus unrest today is like saying a person who keeps everything bottled up inside is — - healthier than someone who shows emotion. — . the rest of his life?” Dr. Loftis asked. “You would have to be a novelist to convey the actual effect some of these experiments would have.” “The ethics committees can only hope to cut down the more obvious stupid things people do,” explained Dr. Loftis. He believes that the individual experimenter must exercise considerable discretion. “You have to rely on the individual making decisions. There is no way to legislate integrity, responsibility, good taste or intelligent decisions,” he said. However, Dr. Loftis said that one can ask the experimenter to make an “extra investment in cleverness” which would produce an experimental design that would test a theory without harming the subject. For instance, when an experimenter may get an idea, he said, a way to test that idea may immediately come to mind. But if that idea is drastic or gross, the experimenter must spend the time trying to develop a less offensive way to look for the same things. However, it is not always possible to design an experiment that will produce significant knowledge without infringing on the rights of the subject in some way. Was the temporary stress inflicted on Morris Braverman worth the increased knowledge for manking on blind obedience to authority? Will Mr. Braverman be a better person fpr his increased knowledge, or will he be forever tormented by his capacity for evil? The debate rages on: The benefits to mankind versus the rights of the individual. Monday, 6 May 1974 The Spectrum Page twenty-seven . . �'V > i,3 ' v*A*?''.7 V ?,• ■2 f. ■• m ■<!

The Bulls seemed to hit too anxious everything Warner threw, which they did, with almost no success. • Silent bats were a major factor in the Bulls split with Brockport Thursday at Peelle Field. Buffalo dropped a 3-2 nightcap decision after winning the opener, 5-4, in eight innings. _ The Bulls began Friday’s contest as they had ended Saturday’s with a whimper. Griffin ace Bill Leonard held Buffalo to one run and two hits before yiedling a bases-full double to Dan Gorman in the seventh. Canisius rallied to cut the deficit to 4-3 before the ninth inning explosion. Reliever Mike Klym stymied Brockport for three and two-thirds innings in relief of Jim Riedel in Saturday’s opener to get credit for th? victory, but knuckleballing No collapse here “We just expected Brockport to fold, you can’t play like that,” said Bull coach Bill Monkarsh. “We kept saying, “we’ll wait for the big inning,’ but it never came.” The Bulls face a tough road to the NCAA playoffs, with small college power Ithaca (second in the college division World Scries last year) and district II defending champion Penn State looming as obstacles. Buffalo faced Ithaca yesterday, and will host the Nittany Lions Wednesday in a twin bill. St. John’s, 19-2 this season, has practically locked yp one playoff spot. Seton Hall is currently leading the Metropolitan Conference and will probably be another nominee. The Middle Atlantic ~~ - WilFflmMM Conference has seen favored Temple ousted by Delaware Thus, Buffalo and Penn State will probably be battling for a single playoff position Wednesday afternoon. Each team is expected to lead with their aces Jim Riedel and John Buszka for Buffalo, Mitch Lukevics and Brian Masella for the Lions. Lukevics and Masella each owned a win over Buffalo last season, Lukevics blanking - -Turk the Bulls, 6-0 to complete a doubleheader sweep (first game won by Penn State, 17-0) at Penn State. Masella defeated Buffalo, 3-1, in the playoffs last spring. Buffalo could earn the berth with a pair of victories, if they play as well as they have on several occasions. If they play as they did against Brockport, the scoreboard may have to be enlarged to contain Penn State’s final score. Bulls finish third; Stephens most valuable performer by Dave Geringer the Student Association. Perhaps CAC could also be required to produce sufficient income. They could charge people in the community for their services. Every student who is tutored in a CAC project, could, for example, pay SI per week. This would minimize any allocation that they would have to receive. CAC might even turn out to be a big moneymaker. Various other groups that desire funding could raise money be various means. The presidents of various clubs could raise money through nationwide speaking tours. If they recieved half the response that McGovern did in the 1971 election, they could open a bank. If $ 1 did not suffice, perhaps $4 or $5 could be charged, in the same manner as a professional football team raises its ticket prices every year. People would probably think that they were getting a better product, resulting in increased attendance. It is absolutely amazing that students would consider implementing an idea that involved paying for something that they formerly received for nothing. It is equally amazing that students would allow themselves to be placed in “double jeopardy” paying twice for the same program. The possibilities for the future are ominous. A yearly increase in prices and a like decline in attendance will ultimately give the people of the anti-athletic faction their day. *a 1 Invitational meet Sudden death The many potential geniuses inhabiting Buffalo are once again playing their game of musical proposals regarding the Athletic Department. The latest proposal is one which would involve charging students to attend home contests in various sports. Hockey, basketball and possibly wrestling might be affected. The wisdom of this idea is so obvious that one wonders why it cannot be extended to everything. Of course, students don’t care whether they have to pay $1 or not to watch hockey, basketball or wrestling. Students are usually rich, anyway, so this money probably won’t be missed. As everyone knows, it doesn’t make any difference to anyone whether or not they are charged for an event that they should, by virtue of paying for the program itself, be seeing free. Naturally, no decrease in attendance will result. As a matter of fact, it would'probably triple, because students would probably believe that, since they are being charged, the product that they are getting is better than that which they did not have to payTor previously. Perhaps this logic can be' extended to all Student Association expenditures. Since each and every member of the student body obviously benefits from WNYP1RG, perhaps they could be persuaded to charge a fee for each of their services to each student who desires them. Since their services are in such great demand, they would undoubtedly be able to raise the mere pittance that they require from •'A* by Dave Hnath Staff Writer Rochester for third place with 37 points, 17 more than the Yellowjackets and St. Bonaventure. Spectrum Edinboro State repeated as champion, but freshman Eldred Stephens led the track Bulls to a surprising third place finish in the 22nd annual U/B invitational meet Saturday at Rotary Field. Stehpens took two first-place medals (doubling in the long and triple jumps), placed second in the 100-yard dash, and helped Buffalo to a third-place finish in the 440-yard relay to amass 16% points, edging out Rochester Tech's Bob MasiHus (repeat winner in both the shot put and discus) and Edinbero’s John Walker (defending titlist in both the 120 high and 440 intermediate hurdles) in the “most valuable performer" category. In all, nine events had repeat winners, while three returning champions were dethroned. Edinboro was invincible as defending meet champion, however, accumulating 127V4 points to shatter their record of 99 team points set last year. R.I.T. again placed second, upping their team total to 15 lA from last year’s 61, and the Bulls pulled a major upset, knocking off perennial power McDonough surprising “I figured we’d be fourth,” said Bull coach Jim McDonough, “but we upset Rochester for third place. Edred was outstanding. He led us to third place with his 16% points. Rick Bernard also did well with his win in the pole vault [13’0”],” added McDonough. Buffalo assistant coach Don Sauer was also pleased with the results. “I thought our guys did well,” remarked Sauer, who placed second in the six-mile run in the open competition. “1 just didn’t have any kick left,” reported Sauer, as Edinboro’s John Foreman outdistanced the Bull graduate assistant after running neck-and-neck for 23M laps. “Edinboro’s loaded they’re three deep in every event,” related McDonough,” and R.I.T. made their usual strong showing.” R.I.T. coach Peter Todd was surprised with Buffalo’s third place upset. “They (Rochester] have more than 85% of their kids on scholarships,” commented Todd.

Their 9-0 victory over crosstown rival Buffalo State on Thursday raised their composite margin to 25-2 over the past three matches and their record to 3-1. The wide margin reflected both Buffalo’s strong play, and the weakness of their opponents. Buffalo State, also shut out in the teams’ meeting last fall, had several new faces in their line-up. Bengal coach Mike Machado commented: “I feel we’ve improved ourselves, but we’re still weak.” The Bengals won two sets, compared to none in the fall. The Bulls received strong play throughout their lineup. Freshman Rob Gurbacki was devastating as sixth singles, downing the Bengals Wilson Ferrari 6-1, 6-0. Gurbacki, who does not rely on power but rather on finesse and placement, ran his winning streak to eight matches in S4JOO col. inch season). With the Bulls leading 6-0 at the start of doubles competition, coach Norb Baschnagel moved his second doubles team of Al Boardman and Jeff Sepp to first string. They responded to the challenge with a 7-6,6-7,6-3 win. Baschnagel, looking ahead to the post-season Eastern Intercollegiate Championships, held at Rochester, took this as a good omen. “Boardman and Sepp could do very well in the ‘B’ bracket [the lower bracket at the DEADLINES: MONDAY, WED., FRIDAY •t 5 p.m. for next issue ALL CLASSIFIED AOS MUST BE PREPAID BY MAIL OR IN PERSON AT THE SPECTRUM 365 Norton Hall.

No. 82 Will man torture because ‘authority’orders it? Editor’s Note: In 1963, Yale psychologist Stanley Milgram conducted a startling series of obedience experiments demonstrating that man is compelled to carry out orders to a horrifying degree. In this first article of a two-part series, the Milgram experiment is examined in detail and its widespread implications are discussed by Dr. Milgram and various State University of Buffalo psychologists. Part Two will explore the complex ethical questions associated with the Milgram study and examine the very nature of psychological experimentation. then quadrupled from left to right with the and emotional.

A series of frightening experiments by has Milgram Stanley psychologist demonstrated that man may indeed be compelled to commit the most heinous crimes under orders from an authority figure. The systematic annihilation of six million Jews during World War Two and the slaughter of countless women and children at My Lai may have been carried out by people simply trying to do their jobs. Intended to “test how much pain an ordinary citizen would inflict on another person simply because he was ordered to by an experimental scientist,” Dr. Milgram’s 1963 experiments have raised important questions about man’s capacity for evil and have highlighted the tremendous impact obedience plays in our society. The experiments are also fraught with ethical questions about the very nature of psychological experimentation. Dr. Milgram pitted “stark reality against the subject’s strongest moral imperatives against hurting others” and unexpectedly found that “with the subjects’ ears ringing with the scream of victims, authority won more often than not IHarper’s Magazine, December 1973]. Terror Utilizing an experimental scenario that* successfully portrayed vivid terror, the obedience experiment began when two were a learner and a teacher people laboratory, brought into Dr. Milgram’s obstensibly to take place in a study testing the effects of punishment on learning and memory. ‘The learner (actually an experimental confederate) is conducted into a room, seated in a kind of miniature electric chair; his arms are strapped to prevent excess movement, and an electrode is attached to his wrist,” Dr. Milgram explained. In the presence of the teacher, the learner is “told that he will be read lists of simple word pairs, and that he will then be tested on his ability.to remember the second word of the pair when he hears the first one again.” The learner is then told that “whenever he makes an error, he will receive shocks of increasing intensity.” In an interview with The Spectrum, Dr. obedience that the Milgram said “an awareness us with experiments provide of the problem of indiscriminate obedience authority.” He continued: “The research shows how much we have a ready predisposition to even evil lend ourselves to authority to — authority.” This makes it imperative that we pay “greater attention to those we place in these positions of authority,” Dr. Milgram maintained. Additionally, we should investigate “other systems of authority” and attempt to “invent one in which conscience is getting a better chance,” especially when faced with “malevolent authority.” “If there is a beast in man,” he added, that beast becomes a “mouse” in the face of authority. “Once you are in the system of authority, he added, it is very hard to fight.” Amnesty Dr. Milgram said he was “strongly in favor of amnesty” for those who refused the government’s orders to fight in the Vietnam War. A full accounting of the obedience experiments is found in Dr. Milgram’s recent book Obedience to Authority (1974, Harper and Row). Explaining the experimental findings. Dr. Milgram wrote that “the essence of obedience is that a person comes to view himself as the instrument for carrying out another person’s wishes, arid he therefore no longer regards himself as responsible for his actions.” He continued: ‘The most far-reaching consequence is that the person feels responsible to the authority directing him, but feels no responsibility for the content of the actions that the authority prescribes.” Jack Loftis, professor of Psychology at the State University of Buffalo, said that the people in the Milgram experiment who shocked the victim at the end of the scale “weird notion” of exhibited a responsibility. “If somebody says ‘1 have the responsibility’ as the experimenter did then people think they can do anything,” Dr. Loftis maintained. - — — — Electronic sadism The real focus of the experiment, according to Dr. Milgram, is the teacher (or experimental subject) who “watches the learner being strapped into place” before being seated in front of an “impressive shock generator.” of 30 switches, the Consisting instrument panel is seemingly a maze of electronic sadism. “Each switch is clearly labelled with voltage designations ranging from 15 to 450 volts” and the switches are Pressures The people did not stop to think: “1 at some figured into the casual chain point 1 had a choice,” he continued. And although this was only an experiment. Dr. Loftis said that in the “real world” the pressures to conform are even stronger. For instance, government sanctions and the demands of their own roles were factors which Adolf Hitler’s prevented subordinates from disobeying his orders. “People should be able to step aside opt out of the system, [but] you just can’t expect that. Most people don’t have the time or ability to do that... people fall into roles to save trouble in the first place.” Even in Nazi Germany, everything was gradual, he continued. “There was never a clear decision where you stop going along with the regime. First it’s one Jew, then two then 50 or 100 people per day,” said Dr. Loftis. In the Milgram experiment there was also a lack of a clear-cut decision first a low shock level, then point slightly higher, always by increments. ... strengthens his belief in the authenticity of the machine.” Pain The point of the experiment is “to see how far a person will proceed in a concrete and measurable situation in which he is ordered to inflict increasing pain on a protesting victim,” explained Dr. Milgram in the Harper’s article. After each incorrect response, the learner is supposedly given increasingly severe shocks from the teacher (the real subject). The learner actually receives no shocks at all and his elicited screams are produced by a tape-recording. “At 75 volts, he [the learner] grunts; at 120 volts he complains loudly; at ISO he demands to be released from the experiment. As the voltage increases, his protests become more and more vehement responsibility for the learning experiment. “To extricate himself from the plight, the subject must make a clear break with authority,” explained Dr. Milgram. Incredibly, 25 of the 40 subjects in the first experiment obeyed the experimenter’s orders to the very end of the shock scale. That experiment was conducted with Yale undergraduates, leading one of Dr. Milgram’s colleagues to dismiss the 60% obedience level as “having no relevance to ‘ordinary’ people. But Dr. Milgram repeated the study with non-students and obtained the same experimental result. And when the experiments were repeated by other social scientists in various sectors of the world including South Africa, Italy and West the obedience level was even Germany higher than it had been in the New Haven studies. — •* — — — — War “People claim that the Milgram thing shouldn’t have happened, that we should —continued on page 6— �WJwjSP? ‘ • Jt Injunction leavesfate ofbudget voting up in air ** xhc coalition includes Th studen t WNYPIRG, CAC, ana me o . ContributingEditor The fate of the 1974-75 Student Association (SA) budget remained unclear Wednesday night after the Student Wide Judiciary (SWJ) issued an injunction preventing SA “from passing, voting or in any way finalizing” its budget until an audit of 1972-73 SA spending is published. The ruling by Chief Judge John J. Sullivan was announced after defense counsel Richard Lippes conceded the case by noting that his client, SA, was willing to await an audit before resuming the budget hearings. He explained that SA had' conducted an informal poll of students and found that the student body would rather await an audit than go ahead with budget debate. The ruling could have an immediate effect on whether the Student Assembly will get an opportunity to vote on the SA budget this semester. If the audit is not published by Tuesday, May 7, the budget will revert to the SA Executive Committee for decisions during the summer. “There shall -be a reasonable time of at least one day after the publication” of the audit “to provide an opportunity for all concerned parties to examine the information contained therein,” the injuction order reads. . . ■ someone from the Administration. It is not yet known what these REP forms may reveal or what impact they will have at budget proceedings. It is generally agreed that they may contain potentially explosive information. The SWJ ruling came after Student Assemblyperson Gary Schwartz filed a complaint against SA last Wednesday, arguing that he had a right to see the results of the audit before the Assembly voted on budgets. At that time the SWJ issued a four-day temporary restraining order, providing an opportunity for both sides to gather evidence pertaining to the by Jeffrey S.

He continued: “I’m not going to defend the integrity of Mr. Ross but I’m sure the integrity of Mr. Humm is questionable.” WNYPIRG members have also insisted that all the funds it recieives will be used strictly for projects which benefit University students. The coalition budget also provides for an increase in the Community Action Corps (CAC) budget, and its director David Chavis defended the proposed increase. “CAC services more students this year than in any previous year. We’ve had a large increase in volunteers and increased the number of projects Trom 48 to 70, and they are well diversified.” Mr. Chavis added: “The small increase offered by the Finance Committee is actually a cutback, because we have to pay for a van next year and increased salaries for our secretary .” Sal Napoli, SA treasurer, agreed with Mr. Humm that the coalition proposal is “hasty” and “interest group-oriented.” Mr Humm believes that the attempt to cut out the seven athletic programs is “without permission from the student body at ” - ... Past spending scrutinized Richard Sokolow, a member of Western New York Public Interest Group (WNYP1RG), was confident the audit would be ready Friday. However, there have been conflicting reports as to when the audit might be available. The firm in the process of preparing the audit, Haskins and Sells of New York, has been investigating approximately 500 REP (requisition) forms and will not be ready to announce results until all the REP’s have been scrutinized.

The animals’ ears will be marked for identification purposes. In this way, may an animal be individually observed to see what such traits, behavioral as dominance or submissiveness, might appear. “I suspect that animals have personalities just as humans do,” Dr. Hull was quoted in the last Courier-Express Buffalo November. She began to feel this when evidence of great individual variability began to appear in her results. “In the park condition, some males were clearly more dominant than Animals do have others. dominance she hierarchies,” added. behavior Behavioral sink Dr. Hull’s research has not revealed any of the phenomena noticed by J.B. Calhoun. He created a “behavioral sink,” formed by a box divided into four Misused research Michael Edelstein, a doctoral student in social psychology at this University, claims that “this is way rooms, each connected by a door, except for two rooms in the center. Thus, the animal could get from any one room to another, but could not complete a circular path. This behavioral revealed differences between structure the two end pens and the two ceiitral pens, In the central and more crowded pens, the following personality emerged: types “adolescent homosexuality, leader, and with a gangs” apathetic animals that rarely ventured from their burrows. Speculators have compared this “behavioral sink” to cities, where similar behaviors develop in humans.

He chose to define crowding, for his own research, as “a variable of a psychological frustration where one person gets in the way of another.” He distinguished this from density, which Dr. Calhoun was measuring, as a combination of the number of people in the setting and the size of the room. “The feeling of crowding is due to density, room temperature, privacy, freedom to act in the presence of others, how much others frustrate you, and the maintenance boundaries of between yourself and others,” he said. Partitioned walls, windows and doorways can affect fhis feeling of crowding, he added, noting how these effects can be in designing housing considered projects. Large space preferred Mr. Edelstein’s past research has shown that a larger space enabled his subjects to complete a task better than a space, and in larger and control morp cooperative smaller groups, developed. He organization suggests applying these concepts to designing buildings in a manner that would control a person’s perception of the room size to avoid the discomfort of crowding. Some other results from studies with humans have shown that crowding had no effect on problem solving. However, male jurors in courts issued harsher verdicts when the courtroom was crowded than when it was not, while no variations for women were apparent. Dr. Hull would eventually like to collaborate with the human making environmental changes to lessen the deleterious effects of crowding. Some time in the distant future, she envisions studies, the possibility environments in would diminish of creating prisons that stress the of crowding. -n you get «ti it-* easy the making! from hi.

The results clearly indicated that most of the agencies recommended management training or sales jobs for men and typing > or clerical jobs for women. Sex discrimination is an “illegal practice,” said Ms. Benjamin, adding that WNYPIRG had hoped to prosecute but doesn’t have a lawyer. She said a more comprehensive study would be conducted in the fall, and hopefully, by that time, WNYPIRG “will have the legal backing to pursue the case.” She did praise the Dunhill Agency, located 584 Delaware Avenue, for its fairness and lack of discrimination. She also requested anyone who has had similar discrimination problems to call the WNYPIRG office and possibly file a complaint with the Human Rights Commission. House says Nixon has not complied with order In a sharply partisan vote, the House impeachment inquiry voted Wednesday night to inform President Nixon that he has “failed to comply” with its subpoena for 42 Watergate tapes. By a 20—18 vote, with only one Republican joining the Democratic majority, the committee decided to send a letter to Mr. Nixon saying that he failed to comply with the committee’s subpoena by publicly releasing edited transcripts of 31 of the 42 subpoenaed tapes.

Strictly interpreted, Mr. Donovan feels this will prevent a citizen from learning what is listed under his own name. He believes the BNC probably couldn’t legally preclude access by the individuals, “but would probably discourage it.” The BNC “may have an obligation” to provide the information, and probably “could supply dates and times” to the individual for confirmation.

Dear Mr. President: Once again within the last year or so, foreign students are facing a new crisis. According to information from the Office of Foreign Student Affairs, under the new regulations foreign students will be required to obtain approval for summer employment directly from the United States Immigration and Naturalization Service, whereas in the past, universities have been permitted to approve summer employment for them. Now such' an authorization will be granted only if the student provides documentary proof that he or she needs summer employment because of economic necessity. The Chairman, the Co-Chairman and all the other members of the International Student Committee (BC) come to denounce this action for thejollowing reasons: 1) This actioh was taken (or at least was brought to the attention of the foreign students) only one month ahead of the summer employment session. So the foreign students were surprised once more (as they were last year with the case of the tuition waivers cutbacks). Most of the students have made their summer plans. Now they are in the midst of their final exams and they have not enough time to provide documentation in compliance with the proposed regulations. 2) Foreign students depend heavily on summer employment, firstly, because during the regular academic year they are required to be full-time students and they are not permitted to work off-campus except in special circumstances, and then only part time; and secondly, with the recent cutbacks on the tuition waivers, their financial burden has been increased considerably. 3) Foreign students are not eligible for any other source of financial assistance. 4) An obvious question is, what will those foreign students who neither take courses nor are employed during the summer months, do during that period? We know that this matter has been brought to your personal attention and that you have been doing everything you can to prevent such regulations from being enforced. We are also confident that you, as the leader of this institution, will continue to protect the rights and privileges of the foreign students on this campus. We would appreciate it if some positive action were taken to alleviate the present difficult situation for the foreign students. The InternationalStudent Committee College E will divide into two distinct units Like a splitting amoeba. College E is planning to divide a into two units next year residential “College of the Poor” and a Media Studies College. — The College of the Poor is being developed because the University has not fulfilled its mandate to help the community, explained a College E spokesman. One of the many problems confronting minority groups on campus and poor and oppressed people in the community is that they are fragmented, said another Collelge E member. The residentail College of the Poor will try to unite these fragmented groups and form a strong mutual tie' between the campus and community. Courses taught by yniversity faculty will be offered in the poor sections of Buffalo, while courses at the residential college on the Amherst Campus while will be taught by members of the community. This will porvide an exchange of resources between university and community: “Now is the time to develop plans for the College of the Poor as we prepare our proposals for chartering of the Colleges,” said a College E - spokesman. B announces o St earanceof • , *' u: ** Media courses needed The second area of planned expansion is College E’s media studies program. “There is a growing need for journalism courses on this campus,” said Howie Kurtz, Editor-in-Chief of The Spectrum and instructor of the Reporting and Writing Workshop offered through College E. “This year, The Spectrum's Reporting and Writing Workshop attracted some 50 students each semester,” added Mr. Kurtz. “Many students come out of high school with little or no writing skills, and since the English department here is generally literature oriented and the writing in English composition courses is generally free-form, students do not have an opportunity to learn disciplined writing skills,” Mr. Kurtz noted. Plans for this fall include an increased selection of courses taught by faculty from College E, the English department and professional journalists from the community, said Mr. Kurtz. The courses will be primarily in either seminar form, where small groups can examine in-depth such issues as media and society or law and journalism, said Mr. Kurtz, or workshop form, with the emphasis on practical experience. “I feel that with proper guidance, this technique of practical experience of working in the field rather than sitting in a classroom is much more effective,” Mr. Kurtz explained. He hopes these courses will be offered regularly and in a progressive sequence from basic to advanced. Some of the courses now on the drawing board are: Media and Society, Copy Editing, Journalism and Law, Photojournalism, Media Self-Censorship and others that aren’t strictly related to writing such as Production, Layout, and Advertising and Design. Mr. Kurtz foresees the courses utilizing the resources of The Spectrum, Ethos and Univesrity Press to enhance the practical application of newly learned journalistic skills.

I’ve just walked over to the Rotary tennis courts see about getting in some tennis this afternoon only to find that all the tennis courts were taken. Now 1 don’t mind if the courts are crowded because a lot of people like to play. But when I go to the courts and can’t play because the tennis team monopolizes them. I’ve got a perfect right to be to Fighting the wrong battle What has been the biggest issue on campus this year? The Colleges? Health care? A student voice in academics? Unfortunately, it has been the recent Student Association budget battles. It is of course understandable that organizations must fight for money when their own vested interests and the services they provide are at stake. The controversy over SA budget priorities has been healthy to the extent that it prompted student participation in their own student government, and to the extent it made a complacent student body wake up and question where their money was going. But what will happen to the student energies now being expended after the budgets are passed? What will happen to "the coalition" of interest groups bodies with diverse as goals WNYPIRG, minority such students and the Jewish Student Union when the budget pie is sliced up and the common goal of securing money no longer unites them? We have argued from the outset that SA's original budget was a package of warped one that screwed social service priorities organizations while over-allocating to certain athletic teams that attract less students than the cltess club. But the coalition's response has been wholesale slashes in athletics chopping teams without a second thought; and attacking usually tokens tossed to student stipends underpaid workers. Instead, they have blindly added thousands of unexplained dollars to the allied interest groups with no item-by-item justification, just a blank check.

No one has denied the need for an audit; but the coalition has screwed itself by its obsession with abuses in last year's SA spending. We would welcome stricter controls such as a justification for all travel money spent to prevent abuses in SA spending. But certain coalition crusaders seem more interested in embarassing individuals than in corrective measures and have argued away their voice in the SA budget in the process. But where were all these student activists when the Faculty-Senate was castrating the Colleges? The crime of the budget controversy is that while health care was being attacked; while the Vietnam War is fueled by America and a criminal President continues to disgrace the country; and while the student voice in academics has died down to a whisper, the biggest burst of student energy all year has been expended in fighting other students for dollars. Some of the more idealistic members of the interest group coalition have expressed the hope that their combined efforts represent the birth of a new student movement on campus. But their energy should be directed toward achieving greater input by students into their own education: having a say in which professors get tenure and remain on campus to teach them, in what grading system is used to evaluate them, and in preserving a viable form ofalternative education in the Colleges. But no unified student movement can conceivably take place until students stop fighting each other for money and start channelling their efforts toward strengthening the student voice on campus.

The title story on “parajournalism,” while interesting, had a number of flaws that destroyed any point that Ms. Dube might have been trying to get at. 1) Parajourhalism is subjective journalism that projects more of the authors’ feelings than any other brand of journalism. As such, it should be considered in the same manner as editorial opinion (which incidently is how the New York Times treats it). 2) Parajournalism found its way to commercial television not because of an attempt to “present a complete news report” but rather because it is found to be in step with the new type of entertainment newscasts. After all, that is Jimmy Breslin that I see on NBC local news in N.Y.C. 3) Parajournalism has been all but forgotten on public television by stations who do not have the need to make the news interesting. What appears evident to me is that serious journalists have not neglected parajournalism but rather discarded it. Albert Widman �Throogh the Abernathy snubbed poking Glaee To the Editor: This past Monday and Tuesday, Community Action Corps, the largest student organization on this campus, held its fifth annual Communications Conference. The purpose of this conference was to discuss University and Community Interaction. The keynote speaker was Rev. Dr. Ralph Abernathy, President of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference. Dr. Abernathy, a leader in the civil rights movement since the early sixties and chief aide to the late Dr. Martin Luther King presented talks on both the 29 and 30 of April giving his views on bridging the' gap between the university and community and making the university accessible to the larger community. Not one member of this University Administration attended either session or even bothered to respond to the invitations of CAC. We (CAC) are particularly disturbed that a man of Dr. Abernathy’s stature can visit a University of this size to discuss issues that should be of primary concern to the administration, yet he was not welcomed nor acknowledged by the administration. In light of the fact that the conference was attended by the -Honorable Stanley Makowski, Mayor of Buffalo and other community leaders made the administration’s lack of participation profoundly noticable. It is unfortunate the university professes community involvement yet did not take this opportunity to demonstrate the sincerity of its words and assume a proper role in this event. by Barry Kaplan As 1 sit here typing, attempting vainly to correlate mixed and confused emotions, it seems impossible that this will probably be the last column that I will write for The Spectrum. It’s next year not that I won’t be back in Buffalo will by my eighth but it seems that a doctoral dissertation and a weekly column just don’t mix. It is also uppermost in my mind that at times staleness can creep into a creative effort when it is done for a fairly long time, and like the proverbial husband, the author is the last to know. I hope that this column has not become boring or predictable; but before rigor mortis sets in, I’d like to bow out with all my colors flying. To those people who have made me part of I thank you. For a their weekly activity world; a world in isolated columnist, it is an which something is created weekly, but without any reaction on the part of the receptors. I wonder if this column is read by people; whether it has made people laugh, think, or just make one more day a little more interesting. 1 wonder if I people that have a group of hard-core readers will get Friday’s Spectrum to see what I have to say, or if the column is ignored completely. The highest honor that the column could receive would be if it was saved for bathroom reading; America’s bathrooms are probably the greatest reading rooms in the world. When I was an undergraduate, there were certain columnists that I looked forward to reading; Rick Schwab and John Bradley, to name only two. The rest of the paper was utilized in a businesslike manner; to kill time between classes or to pass the time in an especially boring class. 1 had dreams for writing a column even back then, but inherent cowardice and a third-grade command of the English language held me back. Yet college did teach me something, and by the time I graduated, it was possible to understand what 1 was writing (barely comprehensible, may — — — — Community Action Corps Tribute to Father To the Editor. As a student at this University 1 believe attention should be called to Dr. Marvin Farber’s upcoming retirement as a faculty member from this Univesrity’s Philosophy department. His departure from the University should be regarded with regret. Dr. Farber has made innumerable contributions to the field of philosophy, to social analysis, and to the carification of experience. He has been a professor since 1925 and a Distinguished Professor since 1964. Dr. Farber founded and has edited for over thirty years one of the most highly respected international academic journals, Philosophy and Phenomenological Research-, He has also written many articles, and several full-length books. Dr. Farber’s stand against idealism and certain rhetorical philosophies, which are now widespread, as well as his reestablishment of certain parts of phenomenology on a materialistic base, have significantly effected a means of analysis within the discipline of philosophy. Dr. Farber, who is now over seventy years old, is retiring to write; and since he is a scholar with an incredibly acute mind, it is not with false hope that he may be wished many more years of productive work. The discipline of philosophy, its students, and this University are indebted to Dr. Farber for many years of a devoted and responsible attitude toward his students, as well as for his many cogent, non-ethereal philosophical works. Dr. Farber will certainly be missed by this University; but the discipline of philosophy looks forward to his works yet to come. add). I must thank my former roommmate, Jack, who pushed this reluctant babe into The Spectrum office two summers ago and foistered me upon the managing editor. 1 was given a chance to write a trial column they were really short of columnists that summer. Well, after laborious hours which primarily consisted of and rewrites, my first satire was created unfortunately, people thought I was serious. I was on my way! Originally this column appeared every other week; however, after a severe bout of ego-tripping, I went weekly. Since then, every idea and thought that lay slumbering in the dimmest recesses of my mind has been trotted out and laid before you. At times 1 was quite serious, but then again blasphemy, low comedy, and crassness also had their day. At times an idea burst forth like a wild horse; at other times the process of creation was so painful that 1 wished that I had never written a column. My - - A student long-suffering roommates, Dave, Ozz, and Jeff, I salute you for unusual and heroic behavior in light of my common flights into the realm of the absurd. My closest friend, Heidi, had to put up with flashes of brilliance which erupted at moments when other forms of behavior would have been more appropriate. This column was a giant ego-message; through the printed word I could reach a mass audience that could not interrupt me in Ihe middle of a crucial line of reasoning. It’s fun seeing your own name in print; interesting to sec the reactions that I sometimes provoked; and enjoyable to know that what I am writing is not for a grade. At times I was quite proud of my times it seemed quite creations; other embarassing that the drivel in The Spectrum belonged to me. Some columns stick in my consciousness; the one on JAPs which appeared a year ago and got an overwhelmingly favorable response from JAP’s, who showed it to their friends in order to put them down. In retrospect, some columns which burst forth from my brain and seemed to be the most rewarding now seem pallid, while some of the columns that I wrote with panic and a mental void seem to have withstood the test of time. The only times that I received any response was when one group or another felt that I slandered them and insulted their most cherished beliefs. Don’t worry, those crass comments and blasphemous remarks were intended to be insulting. 1 tried to protect nothing, I tried to educate and stimulate thought; whether through satire or a serious essay. Yet, there is no possible or if, as 1 way to know if I really got through said before, this column was even read. My friends reacted to the columns and there was always tremendous splits and disagreements between them upon the merits of various columns. Through them, and at times through the anguished screams of my editor, I was able to determine if 1 was coherent, and to the point. To my friends, I owe an enormous debt that 1 can never repay. It is probably that this column, written for a local college paper, will never be ranked high in journalistic standards. Yet for me, it was one of one that 1 the greatest experiences of my life hope will remain with me for the rest of my life. Through this artistic creation, 1 finally appreciated the beauties of the English language and the subtle shades of meaning that words possess. It is truly a thrill to create, to communicate, to produce a tangible reality from within your own mind. Of course, it is egotistic to believe that people want to read what you have to say; yet without an overgrown ego 1 would never have considered my thoughts worth to fifteen thousand people. repeating I again thank all of you, whether you agreed with me or not. I appreciated the fact you gave some of your time to me and I hope sincerely that it was rewarding in one way or another. Take care and have a good summer.

Most of us are hedonists, those who know are anarchists, and .those who don't are pessimists. In general, the Marxists shy away from American sensual pleasures, at least in public, because if you're a Marxist and are seen enjoying yourself too much, the others will think you've forgotten the suffering world. But them Marxists keep hammering away about the business of life, and in peeling off the musical artichoke, some rotten leaves of money will fall. And the heart of it all may be slightly closer to the contract than to the soul. The scene shifts from your eyes to the back 'of Clark Gym, Saturday night at the Herbie (I'm Herbie Hancock) Hancock concert. While the sun was slipping under the pollution for the evening, and the crowd filed into the athletic dungeon, the six musicians of Trigger Happy sat pulling up some weeds in nearby outer-space. They're a young band, some UB students, and playing on the bill with Weather Report, Good God and Handy Herbcock was a big break. They got all their equipment to the gym. They set up in the gym. And then they were told they weren't going to play. .. One less group It seems Cocky Handherb's agency manager hadn't told him that there were three bands to perform before him, and Cocky owned the sound system, and didn't want to start playing somewhere around 2 a.m. One band had to go, and Trigger Happy was unloaded before a shot was fired. Hancock didn't especially care for the feelings of the other musicians, and UUAB hid under the apron of their impotent amateurism. And the crowd couldn't give a shit, because that was one less group to sit through before the stars came out. In most cases an audience wouldn't mind hearing more music. But the audience had to put with a lot. Clark Gym isn't even well-suited for athletics, much less, music. It should properly be filled with some of our backward administrators and turned over to the bizarre fossil department. The heat and smoke were oppressive, it's acoustically unworkable and architecturally absurd. If they ever hold another concert there, nobody should be allowed to enter with their body (very few of them leave the same). They can check it at the door, and UUAB can pile all our heads on the hardwood floor, like a room filled with bowling balls. After all, they do charge by the head. Amazing keyboard —Salant And heading off the music was Good God. After them came Weather Report, and then Hurtin' Herbie. Each group had a funky drummer, Good God had the only electric guitar players, and I think they were the best ones there. Good God suffered the most from the acoustics. Weather Report the least, leaving Herbie in the middle. Weather Report got the loudest (standing) ovation. Good God the least. and Herbie once again takes the second, or next-to-last, position. Herbie played amazing keyboard, unless you don't like that sort of stuff, and Zawinal played amazing keyboard, unless you don't like that sort of stuff. Every time Wayne Shorter played a note I was impressed great tone and control. — Solos vs. interaction The bass player in Weather Report is no longer Miroslav; he was killed by a reactionary prostitute while freedom fighting in Yugoslavia, leaving room for a phenomenal young bass player, Alfonso Brown, whose name was lost in the roar. At one time he even played drums, while the percussionist played drums, and the drummer played drums that's three drummers at once. Let's see. Benny Maupin played with Herbie, who said he was inspired by Weather Report, 'cause they were unbelievable, and I've had occasion to hate them in the past. What Weather Report did was create or fake creating right on stage. None of this straight theme-solo-theme-solo-theme jazz shit (whoops!) that Herbie is still into. Their songs are built on interaction between the five members, and it worked. The songs went places constantly, unlike other sets I've seen them do. Herbie was inspired to great solos, and I suppose that's what his music is about so I'll leave — him alone. And thus in conclusion, we see that, while he may have very well understood the dialectic of business and pleasure, Chairman Mao would not have enjoyed this concert. y. y % �The Bedbug' Lackluster play, fine acting by Jerry Esposito Sp*cVum Arts Staff I can guarantee an entertaining evening at the Albright-Knox Art Gallery Auditorium.

The floating stone head reminds one of Swift's Laputan empire, and its purpose directly parallels The Wizard of Oz. From Lafferty s book was stolen the word 'puppet-master," referring to the invisible string which controls man's life. Only after the movie was released did Boorman write the novel, a word-for-word duplicate of the script. Perhaps this explains the incoherency in certain sequences of the movie. With the help of Gerry Johnson's special effects, Boorman attempted to capture the magnitude of 2001: A Space Odyssey. He fell far short. Although the potential depth was there, its fragmentaion made the film difficult to wade through. However, certain science fiction touches were excellent. Giant "baggies’' became greenhouses; an eerie, naked reverence surrounds the Vortex; and the musical jingle of erotic stimulation causes laughter. In apparent contradiction, this is a stupid movie which most audiences will despise, yet at the same time ponder over in awe. We lack the multi media techniques which would have justified this movie. Sean Connery may not have been a wise choice, although he is an aging male, glorified for his strength and physique as the ultimate James Bond. Who better to save the world? (If it's worth saving!) Zardoz should make good summer fare, especially as background noise in your favorite drive-in. For its own merit, it's as much worth seeing as the world is ready for salvation.

Closing out their season, it is playing at Studio Arena Theatre (SAT) through May 12th. As a child, I overheard a British friend of my Aunt (call the friend Mrs. Banther) criticise (British spelling), with grim seriousness. World War Two in these terms; "Not very nice, really. So untidy." As my schoolwork had acquainted me with some of the horrors of WWII, her remark left me dizzy with laughter. If you can't understand why Mrs. Banther's remark was funny, then you probably won't see what is funny about Noel Coward's writing. It is understated, timid (I won't say cowardly) humor that pokes as much fun at the style of speech and culture it adopts, as it does at the targets that culture attacks. Isolating the comic element of a situation with dry wit, it knocks you over with a complacently-stated blast. Its grammar seeks to put off for as long as possible mention of cultural taboos'by placing any unsavory words at the end of a sentence, and then moving quickly on to the next sentence with only, perhaps, the slightest lift of an eyebrow and, certainly, no pause and (horrors!) no italics.

Although I've tried (such an effort!) to avoid this kind of thing, I find it impossible not to indulge myself in a few precious paragraphs of thank-you's before closing out this season. I'll begin with a "much obliged" to the theater, art gallery, and "classical" musical hall managers, as well as to the publishing company representatives with whom this department has had to deal all year. Especially, I'd like to thank the publicity folks at the Buffalo Philharmonic, Albright Knox, Studio Arena, UB Theatre Department, UB Music Department, and Gallery 219. On behalf of The Spectrum and Prodigal Sun. I must acknowledge my hard-working staff, as well as the photo, graphic arts, and production staffs on the paper. A very warm thank-you goes to Contributing Editor Michael Silverblatt, whose reviews are always intelligent, graceful, witty and well, late. Professors Dwight Macdonald and Alan Spiegel are the instructors in the English Department whose many suggestions over the course of this semester have been inestimably helpful. No, Randi, I haven't forgotten about you. Assistant Arts Editor Randi Schnur wins this year's prize for being the most-abused and, at the same time, most conscientious member of the Arts staff. About now I'm getting a little worried as to whether or not Howie and Janis will let this esoteric section see print, so I would, at this time, like to thank Managing Editor Janis Cromer and Editor-in-Chief Howie Kurtz and wish them both the best of luck wherever their separate but cordial winds blow them. And that's about it. The Spectrum (and Prodigal Sun) will resume publication on a weekly basis in the summer after a few weeks' rest to recover from this semester's disasters. There's even been some talk about an independently-published Prodigal Sun in the fall. Stay tuned. . . . Friday, 3 May 1974 The Spectrum Page thirteen . . �I Our Weekly Reader The South Dakota Guidebook by Charles Baxter (New River* Press, $250 paper. $6.00 doth). In The South Dakota Guidebook, a fresh, restrained, interesting book of poetry. South Dakota is made of paper and its geography is strangely mental. "Slowly, and with infinite difficulty," the poet tries to explain "why snapshots of the mountains and cliffs are coming back blurred, looking like brain celts." Too much in this book comes back looking like brain cells, and that is the book's major problem; oddly enough, though, the book's self-consciousness accounts for its major successes. In the series titled "Indians," for example, the poet succeeds on many levels. On the first level, Baxter subverts the idea of poetry by and about Indians. The poems regard the Indian as a cluster of images having little to do with "Indians" (or "Indians"). The first poem describes them: "Ma says/ they have silver teeth/ long and pointed like forks./ If they smile,/ you keep your hands secret,/ hiding in the folds of your shirt// She says what skin they have/ is red, or white as a car./ You can't tell by color:/ they live in the dark, and eat stones ..." The series continues to describes the Indian biology ("Every Indian houses an animal/ in his body ..Indian customs and beliefs, until the last Indian, the poet, speaks: / don'tknow how I became one of them. You could look in my mother for that, and you would find paper, piles ofpaper Uttered with script. / was this old before I came to their councils. I m«s invited to hear mysteries. But they have not said a single word. At dawn, / get up and work. I don't starve, but / can explain nothing, and my hunger grows like a stain. This poem, the last in the series of eight, establishes the author as son of and prey to the unhappiness in his poems. His mother ("piles of paper, littered with script") is poetry. The first poem ("Ma Tells about Indians") then, is a description of poetry it- or her- self telling about her children: her images ("... they creep up,/ like needles on rubber,// in an ambush of absolute silence.") The poet himself becomes one of mother's images, a short line or like a door like a sock." It is totally imaginary. By the time Baxter gets around to questioning the "reality" of this construct (in a poem called "Barns," he asks "Does it ever occur to you/ that the barn is a prop?" ‘The barn is a prop but no one can fake/ cries of pain, can they?") the unreality of this South Dakota has not only occurred to the reader, the reader is bored with the notion. The book is too comfortably encased in its intentions. The epigraph is from Goncharov's Oblomov. It posits a poetic paucity in a certain fietive landscape, suggests some of the marvels which might have been there, which a poet would have looked for, but "no, there is nothing like that in our parts." Dead space gives birth to projected imagery which only attests to the failure of the original landscape and the failure of art to change the landscape. The last poem ends with a quote from Captain Scott's expedition journals. ‘We took risks/ we knew we took them/ things have come out against usII therefore we have no cause for complaint." The poems rest, perhaps too complacently, between these two self-assured quotations. In his first book of poetry. Chameleon (1970), Charles Baxter revealed a facility for metaphor that first surprised and finally dismayed the reader. The poetry deals with metamorphoses and camouflage. Unfortunately, although the individual images are often precise and shockingly adroit, each image quickly forms a cluster, hastens to become, well, chameleonic. There is something beguilingly arbitrary about the rapid transformations of imagery and style, but this arbitrariness itself becomes exhausting. The poet is trying to play too virtuosic a hand and, after fancy shuffles and clever fannings of the cards preenings really it he loses every deal. Metaphor becomes too playful can go anywhere. In his "Alice" poems (a series investigating a new Wonderland), the poet leads Alice along too many gappy imaginative synapses; the poems fold limply back into their unrestricted and unrestraining shaped "like a balloon of that litter-script. The stain of his hunger grows up backwards through the earlier poems. On second reading, despairs of its the series so imaginative at first imagination. The Indians are false but the hunger is real. The complex of intentions in these poems, when it is apparent, makes the poetry more resonant. The poetry itself, before interpretation, moves through a rich imaginative space. In other words, the self-consciousness need not be apparent for the poetry to be enjoyed or admired. The book, divided into four sections, makes extraordinary use of these metaphorical figures for creation and for the most part the poetry stands on its own. In the fourth section, however, 'The South Dakota Guidebook" section itself, Baxter insists on his convolution as the subject of the poetry. Charles Baxter writes about the location, of South Dakota, its shape, its rivers, its mountains, its* proverbs, its farmhouses and barns, and finally its empty space and its interior. But he never takes the poems to South Dakota. South Dakota is two — — — — — premises. In The South Dakota Guidebook, Baxter displays enormous growth in sensibility. He has learned to marshal metaphor along logical tracks. The poems still surprise; when they reveal unexpected richness they are alarmingly original. One poem, "Porcedures," requires special reading. It is powerful and probably should be anthologized. When the poem leans too heavily, self-consciously and self-assuredly on their intellectual sub-structure, though, the poetry becomes arch and rather dull. Charles Baxter has an individual voice and a unique style. His emergence as a major poet in coming years will not be surprising. -Michael Silverblatt I The New Super-Receivers The Kenwood 4400 25 RMS watts per channel, both channels driven from 20 to 20,000 Hz into 8 ohms Distortion; 0.5% Harmonic, 0.5% IM IHF Sensitivity: 2.1 uV FM Signal to Noise Ratio: 65 db - - - - Tech Hifi and Kenwood join in presenting Kenwood's new Super-Receivers to Upstate New York.

Series scheduling is a tedious ritual, punctuated by frequent misjudgments. The television moguls have used very little insight in many of their selections in the past. Again this year, series have been dropped at whim, and this season has seen the most casualties of any in recent memory. that next year will see a major just possible But it's possible improvement. NBC has finally seen fit to chop The Dean Martin Show along with The Girt With Something Extra, which, although the ratings weren't too bad, suffered from lack of script and overall stupidity the diseases of all too many sit-coms. The cops-and-robbers syndrome has faded, thank God; except for a handful of decent productions (Police Story, Colombo Kojak and The Streets of San Francisco to name a few), the violence in TV is on the way out. And no longer will the viewer be assaulted with hours and hours of daily bloodletting flowing out of his Magnavox. The networks have put their detective shows together on a few nights, so as not to botch up the screen seven nights a week. Simplicity and honesty are now on the way in (witness The Waltons ). Replacing Sonny and Cher from 8 to 9 on Wednesday nights will be Little House on the Prairie. Michael Landon (producer, director, and star) is toning down images from his Ponderosa days with these portrayals of simple and real people, showing how the early West affected them and their lives. Take away the Depression, insert the early West, and you have the difference between The Waltons and this show. Specials, World Premieres and the "heavier" leaning toward lighter and simpler productions may lead to a fruitful TV season for the first time in years. Sit-ooms will come and go as usual, and shows geared to the mind of a cow will pop up on our screens from time to time. And television still has a lot of questions to answer. Why, for instance, was David Hartman's great production of the first televised human shown at 1:00 in the morning, while Mannix and Kojak are available to the kiddies during the early evening? Somewhere a redefinition of values is sorely needed. Slowly (and hopefully), television is turning a corner. Producers are actually starting to think about their viewers' tastes, and they’re doing something about it. This, however, is not to say that TV has finally changed for the better. Changed, definitely. Better? Only this -H.R. fall will tell for sure. — — - "In my world, proclaims the little girl with the huge, glowing eyes, nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn't.

' ' ' , When I turned the channel to ABC Tuesday at 8:30,1 knew there was only one chance in a thousand that this made-for-TV pilot movie would be any good. After flunking out with Genesis //, Gene Roddenberry took the same basic plot (modern man is lost in time, then found in the 22nd century) and named this rehash Planet Earth.. This world is more of a Tower of Babel than a Garden of Eden, with a civilization split into many levels from a model of ancient Rome to dinosaur-fighting cavemen. Pax, the most advanced culture, operates under the banner of Mission Mankind its goal: to find a better civilization. Our hero Dilan Hunt (portrayed by John Saxon) finds a fantastic society of Amaions, a community dominated by females where Women's Lib has gone wild. I can only guess as to how the male populous reacted, but speaking for the women of the world, I was fascinated by the idea. Imagine a race where women are supreme, using the male Oinks as serfs. These docile Dinks, drugged by an extract, have to keep their eyes lowered and their mouths shut, and submit to their mistresses' pleasures. Although the love scenes were ridiculous, the show became better as it grew more stupid. Most of the cast overacted a bit, with the female lead, Diana Muldaur, appearing as an insipid, sickly-sweet girl. Because of its soap-opera tendencies, the basic premise of Planet Earth is almost on the level of Starlost. My stomach turned when Roddenberry stole old Star Trek ideas, such as an empathetic mind link in the Spockian tradition or a running log of adventures narrated by the main character. Majel Barrett even made a quickie appearance, perhaps to bless her husband's show. The incidental plots were petty and needless, while we can blame the music on Harry Sukman. My suggestion is to throw out the regular cast and plot, but retain the guest stars (who did a good job), then base the series on these Women of Ruth. It would make an amusing show, giving females a —E.K. chance to laugh at their Dinks. — — successfully as the half-drowned Sorcerer's Apprentice featured in the film) Alice seems to be appealing to the same audiences for the same general reasons.

Buffalo audiences don't seem to have found all this out yet; last Thursday night, the crowd at the Boulevard Mall Cinema numbered about seven. Or maybe they already know that Alice is less original and much more insipid than Fantasia, and hasn't got the added benefits of Leopold Stokowski s terrific music although the March Hare's and Mad Hatter's rendition of "A Very Merry Un-Birthday" is worth a listen. In spite of its problems and even though Walt Disney himself called it his least favorite film (and I ask you, who else are we to trust?) the whole loaf of bread-and-butter-flies, the Mad Hatter who sounds suspiciously like Ed Wynn, and all the other residents of Alice's private world really are a lot of fun to watch . .. and the message is only there if you insist on it. — — But curiosity rules her quite unchallenged, and the liquid disappears as quickly as did her scruples. We are never told whether the singing flowers, the animals serving as croquet equipment for the Queen of Hearts, or any of the other odd creatures dancing around the girl have anything to do with that mysterious liquid or the cakes which go down after it but the implications are clear enough. These particular suggestions apparently didn't go over too well with the good citizens who allowed the cartoon version of Alice in Wonderland to become a box-office failure after its first release in 1951. Neither were they appreciated by producer Walt Disney, who (according to a recent New York Times article) called Lewis Carroll s creations "weird characters who had an appeal to the intellect without anything to appeal to the — ' emotions. when Alice briefly at last summer s Lincoln Center Disney Film Retrospective, thousands of people rushed out to fight for tickets to performances that almost sold out always hardly an immediately and the unemotional experience dash for major theater bookings However, reappeared — — was on — -R.L.S SHARE THE RUE WITH US THIS VACATION AND GET ON TO A GOOD THING.

Unfortunately, many of the markets for used equipment hold significant drawbacks. For instance, buying used equipment from a friend is convenient, but may strain a relationship .if there is price haggling or if defects show up after the purchase. Second-hand stores and pawnshops may seem like wise places to shop, but in actuality they are often overpriced, in addition, some second-hand stores are small-time fences for local burglars. In larger cities, the police department regularly holds auctions for unclaimed property, sometimes including sound equipment. The bids on most merchandise are rather low and there are occasionally some bargains to be had, but you have no way of ascertaining the true condition of the items. Furthermore, they are not generally stored under very favorable conditions. The two soundest ways to shop for used audio equipment are 1) through classified ads in newspapers and swap sheets, and 2) at retail hi-fi dealers who sell used equipment. There are a variety of people who use classified ads to sell audio components. Some are hobbyists who buy and sell regularly. Some are small dealers working out of their own homes who have no other way of reaching the public. Most are ordinary people who are pressed for cash or who have recently upgraded their sound systems and would like to unload their old equipment There are also some people who use the I kY3- and refuses to cooperate in the event of some problem, don't be afraid to go to Small Claims Court. If you've got the goods on a merchant, you'll usually win. Moreover, many cases are settled out-of-court after a merchant receives his summons. Whereas most private individuals will allow you to test out equipment before you agree to buy, retail dealers and salesmen are usually unable to spend that much time with a customer on any but the most expensive items. Therefore, test out your purchase thoroughly as soon as you get it home. Return it promptly if it should prove defective. If possible, pay by check. *rK Settling on a price There is no clear way to ascertain what a reasonable price for any used audio equipment should be. The asking or selling price for a used component depends more on who is buying and who is selling than any other factor. Some people will charge whatever they think they can get and others will pay whatever is charged them. It is not uncommon to see people paying close to the full discount price for a battered pair of ten-year-old speaker systems at high-priced audio "salons." What you should keep in mind in establishing a price for a used component are the points you are giving up by not buying a new product: A. "Newness," for whatever you think it's worth; B. Dealer niceties, for whatever they might mean to you; C. The warranty, unless it's transferable (it rarely is); 0. Any advances offered by newer equipment. And you are accepting the burden of: E. X years of wear; F. Any latent defects; G. Any physical damage, i.e., scratches, dents, etc. tree ads in swap sheets continuously in an attempt to sell worthless junk. The best way for you to assess whom you are dealing with is to call and ask several questions not answered in the ad. A significant advantage of buying used equipment for a retail audio dealer is that nearly any dealer will guarantee his used components for some reasonable period of time, usually thirty days. There is one serious shortcoming in this regard: many dealers are chronically unable to hear or see defects that are quite apparent to their customers. For this reason you must choose dealers carefully and demand a guarantee providing for a refund if the component will not function to your satisfaction. If your dealer makes such an agreement (in writing) r miss m Further more you must assume that for optimum performance you may have to: H. Replace the stylus, or more likely the stylus and cartridge in a turntable if they are worn, or an outmoded design; I. Replace part or all of the tube complement in any tube-type component. All of these points should illustrate that except in the case of truly superior discontinued designs, such as the Marantz 10B tuner or the Futterman amplifiers (see photo), used components should'see at very significant reductions. One final note: don't be afraid to haggle. Private sellers will usually accept more than a small cut if a sale is at hand. So will dealers, especially those who charge inflated prices for used components. Dealers usually take a comfortable profit on used equipment (if it’s sold, that is) because they receive it on trade-in and offer only small trade-in allowances. - • ALSO A FILM - Bluaa accordin' to Lightin' Hopklnt Conference Theatre Films May r - THE TRIPLE ( WINNER IS , 3 —Mnr York Film Critic*, 1970 BCST/KTUKOFTHEXHH BtSi OtRt&WR Wjfcwwt BESTSUmRWBKTRESS M IgP; Jfcf ••'ft M/Vff0llCf flfMaK 4St m l*Si 'S'Mi £ nvEEJHsypiECES KAREN BLACK ~SUSAN ANSPACH ***adrknx)yct .— ADRItNJOYCt WICHSiFH -.— Mi.aoaiumsoN •-...aoa rafclson- BOB RAFtLSON-RICHARO HfHI SCHHfUXH «ho«>|»j • "^~] BUFFALO LAW REVIEW are now on sale in the University Bookstore & J.L.O'B.

Sudden death by Dave Geringer When everything looks gloomy, have no fear, wise men will arise and lead everyone onward. This year’s edition of the wise men is the “coalition.” These distinguished ladies and gentlemen have taken upon themselves what many other people, at various times, have attempted the responsibility for cutting the athletic budget. The “coalition” must have worked long and hard in preparing their proposed budget reductions, which are expected to be presented at Monday’s Student Assembly meeting. They discounted the recommendation of the SA Finance Committee, whose long and painstaking hours in compiling their proposed budget apparently amounted to nothing. As the “coalition” has obviously shown, it is far better to base budget decisions on momentary whims or the sound of numbers, rather than reading and rereading requests. A glance at the'coalition’s budget reveals the amount of work that obviously wept into their proposal. It calls for various cuts, in amounts such as $4000 and $5000. It is apparent that the “coalition” must have deliberated for a long time, perhaps several seconds, while arriving at such a precise figure. Their hard work is to be commended. The “Coalition” also called for cuts in amounts such as $5323.39 and $8163.67 from the athletic budget. These figures also took a great deal of time to reach, almost as much time as it takes to read the Finance Committee’s proposed recommendations and. recopy them. The amounts are the exact budgets for several intercollegiate sports, and reduction of the athletic budget by the proposed amounts would be tantamount to dropping these sports. Many hours of needless working and reworking of budgets can undoubtedly be saved in the future. A group of “coalitions” can be formed, budgets can be decided, and everyone can go home in an hour ' and a half. Perhaps the “coalition,” which has apparently decided that these sports do not serve enough students, can be persuaded to donate another few seconds of their time in setting up an arbitrary number of students which any funded program must serve. Any program, regardless of its content, would be terminated if it did not serve, for example, 3000 students. This would enable the SA to save most of its yearly allocation, which could then be passed on to the “coalition” as a reward for their fine service. Thus, the student body will be rid of many intercollegiate sports which Obviously have no value. However, the “coalition” will surely be able to solve this minor problem. Perhaps the various members of the “coalition” could organize teams in fencing, crew, cross country, track, swimming, golf and tennis. Rotary Field could experience a standing-room-only crowd to watch the CAC Clowns face the WNYP1RG Whips. Perhaps this could be extended further. Why should the basketball team {day Syracuse when they could save money by playing an intramural squad? The hockey team could drop opponents such as St. Lawrence and Ohio State, drawing a sellout crowd to Holiday Twin Rinks to watch them take on the “coalition” all-stars. The wrestling team could be disbanded and split into two squads, with intra-squad matches at Clark Hall rather than Buffalo-Maryland. The baseball Bulls could add local power to St. Mary’s School x for the Deaf instead of wasting money flying to New York. Who cares what the tournament committee says? Tournament? So what? Far better to fund another research project! The absurd proposals made by the “coalition” will be discussed and perhaps passed at Monday’s Student Assembly meeting, unless students decide that this is not the way they want future budgets decided. If the students remain apathetic, any future power destined for student governments at this University may be en route to oblivion. - Buffalo Bulls oust Knights; *an easy team’beams pitcher ,> The Geneseo Blue Knights made their annual attempt at providing competition for the baseball Bulls last Tuesday at Peelle Field, they failed for the second consecutive year, due almost totally to overpowering Buffalo pitching. Four Bulls hurlers fanned twenty-one Knights as Buffalo triumphed, 5-1. The 21 strikeouts tied a Bull record set against last year’s Geneseo powerhouse by Jim Riedel. Starting pitcher Jim Niewczyk recorded fourteen of his eighteen outs (six innings) via strikeouts. Niewczyk also picked off two Knights, and left fielder Johp Kidd’s grab of a pop fly was the only outfield putout registered during Niewczyk’s stint. “It was an easy team,” agreed Niewczyk. “I’m just getting back in shape after my sore ankle. I had to sit out a couple of days (with the injury), and I wasn’t in shape,” Niewczyk added. Non-pressure game Mike Dean and John Atti followed Niewczyk and recorded two strikeouts each in an inning of Bulls work, labile Tim Calhoon fanned the side in the ninth. “We needed a game like this,” commented Bull coach Bill Monkarsh. “We’ve had a lot of pressure games. This kind of game gives us a chance to let everyone play, which we can’t do all the time,” continued Monkarsh. The Bulls tied another record, stealing six bases in the contest, with shortstop Jim Lalayanis setting a new game standard with three. The Bulls have perfected their running game this season, and have used it effectively to score runs when the hitting has not been there. The Bulls (16-9-1 before yesterday’s Brockport doubleheader) face Canisius this afternoon at Delaware Park. Mike Dean is expected to start for Buffalo, while the Griffins will probably counter with Bill Leonard, who has hurled consecutive two-hitters in his last two starts. Niewczyk and Bill Lasky will probably work Sunday’s doubleheader at Ithaca, with Riedel and John Buszka pitching in the all-important twinbill against District II defending champ Penn State May 8 at Peelle Field. tomeet Canisius Canisius College scheduled a press conference at the Statler-Hilton Hotel this morning to announce that they would face both the State University of Buffalo and Buffalo State in basketball next season. The Bulls have not met Canisius since the 19S3-S4 season, but were scheduled to be in the tournament field for Canisius’ Queen City Classic in December. The Queen City tourney was discontinued recently, and Canisius will fill one of two spots left vacant on the Buffalo slate by the tournament’s absence.

Two rainouts preceded the team’s opener, a 9-0 shutout at the hands of Colgate. However, the Bulls bounced back, downing St. John Fisher 8-1 Monday and Canisius by the same score on Tuesday. on * •OR TOAST PLUS 2 COUNTRY JFRESH EGGS, as you like ’em.* against those tigers Spectrum & SUNDAY 19 6 p.m 29 Hiltaboro Rd.Cti»«kto«O0» off Huth Rd. When inclement weather threatened the St. John Fisher match, it was transferred indoors to the Buffalo Tennis Club. The courts had to be rented, so to conserve time, warm-ups were shortened and the match was played using pro-sets (eight games win the set and match). The Bulls started like a house afire and the weak Cardinal squad was no match for Buffalo. Second singles player Paul Parelli was overpowering, losing only three points en route to a 8-0 victory. Bull captain Rich Abbott did not lose a point until the fifth game of his match. Buffalo coach Norm Baschnagel remarked, “1 would like to have started against them (St. John Fisher) instead of going [Colgate]. This [the 8-1 win] builds the team’s confidence.” With the weather in the 60’s, the Bulls finally moved outdoors against Canisius. The Griffins, who had hopes of winning prior to the encounter, were beaten soundly. Abbott, playing first singles, defeated Rick Infanti, 6-2, 6-2. “He [Infanti] had trouble with his serve,” said Canisius coach Terry McMahon. “Rich Abbott is very steady. You’ve got to play that way against him.” Infanti regained his serve in doubles competition to contribute to Canisius’ only win of the day. Buffalo’s third doubles team of Jerry Cohen and Lonnie Keller pulled off the only shutout of the match, as they overwhelmed opponents Peter Shields and Heidi Voss. with Baschnagel pleased was Buffalo’s performance. “As a team, it’s one of our best efforts,” he said. The Bulls, now 2-1, travel to Ithaca on Sunday to conclude their spring season. Buffalo has one post season tournament, at Rochester, and the squad members and Baschnagel are optimistic following the team’s two strong showings.

You could get it in cash. 1 know where it could be gotten." The two men continued to discuss the importance of keeping Hunt silent.

Haldeman were also implicated in the cover-up, Mr. Nixon said; “I am surprised at what you told me today.” In another conversation, a, with Mr. session strategy Ebrlichman and Mr. Haldeman, the President asked how he could explain why the investigation had taken so long. Mr. Ehrlichman suggested blaming it on Mr. Dean’s failure to complete his report, and the President agreed. Mr. Nixon also asked how he could take credit for campaign official Jeb Magruder’s decision to talk to the Watergate Grand Jury. The transcripts were released yesterday as Mr. Nixon went public with his impeachment defense, dramatically announcing on national television Monday night that he would allow the Committee’s Judiciary House chairman, Peter Rodino Jr. (D., NJ.) and ranking Republican, Edward Hutchinson (R., Mich.), to listen to the actual tapes to verify that the transcripts were both accurate and did not exclude any relevant material (the all President said that —continued on page 4— May Day Bom out of struggle for workers’ rights by Paul Krehbld Spectrum Staff Writer May Day was bom on May 1,1886, in Chicago, out of the struggle few the eight-hour work day. It was a time of the 12- and 16-hour work day, accompanied by low wages and poor working conditions. During the economic crises of 1873 and 1884, the people suffered wage-cuts, lay-offs and evictions. The vast urban slums were crowded and disease-ridden, and thousands waited in bread lines to ward off starvation. Amid these horrible conditions, the people fought for their survival with demonstrations, rallies, widespread strikes and the formation of labor organizations. One such organization was the International Working People’s Association. Albert Parsons, August Spies and others from this organization, helped found the Chicago Eight-Hour League in 1883 to wage an all-out fight for the shortened work day. By 1885, the movement for the eight-hour day had swept the country. However, few employers granted the shorter work-day and labor organizations set May 1,1886 as the day for a nation-wide strike. Support mounts The eight-hour day had embedded itself in the minds of the American workers. Meetings, resolutions, parades and conferences multiplied as May 1st neared. Richard O. Boyer and Herbert M. Morais, in Labor’s Untold Story report: “All through March and April tension rose, like a thermometer in the sun, as daily additional thousands were reported in the Chicago newspapers as pledging to strike May 1st.” Chicago labor held two large and militant organizing meetings; the first a Knights of Labor rally on April 17 with 7000 inside the Cavalry Armory and 14,000 outside; the second on April 25, when Parsons and Spies addressed 25,000 people. When May 1 arrived, everything in Chicago was shut down. The Chicago Matt estimated that 80,000 workers in Chicago had struck for the eight-hour day, and some 340,000 workers were marching all over the country, In Chicago, the workers and their families assembled for a march down Michigan Street to the waterfront. Pinkertons, militia and police were on side streets and rooftops. In the State Armory, 1350 National Guardsmen were mobilized with Gatling guns. , Haymarket not Parsons, Spies and others spoke at the rally, and when over, the crowd dispersed. Everything was peaceful. Within two days, thousands were granted the eight-hour day. But at the McCormick Harvester Works, the workers were locked out, and the police were escorting in scabs. Fighting broke out, and the police opened fire, killing six workers. A meeting was called for the next evening in Haymarket Square to protest these killings. Parsons and Spies had already addressed the crowd and had left, while Sam Fielden, another member of the Working People’s Association continued to speak to the remaining crowd. Suddenly, down the street came 180 police with clubs and arms. was ordered to disperse the crowd. There was the sound of running feet, and then a bomb was thrown into the police ranks. Chaos broke out, with people running, and police shooting into the crowd. Eight police were killed and scores of workers wounded. Fielden Repression spread The newspapers went wild. Boyer and Morais, in the aforementioned book said: “The nation’s press was a unit in declaring that it made no difference whether Parson’s, Spies or Fielden had —continued on pago 8— Trustees say Ketter can use student fees for health care j After weeks of legalistic interpretations and bureaucratic snafus, the SUNY Board of Trustees has allowed President Robert Ketter to permit student fees to be used for health care services on this campus. The Trustees met last weekend in New York City, where they informally discussed the health care issue, and after discussions with them Dr. Ketter Monday sent a letter to University administrators instructing them to authorize the use of student fees for Sub-Board health services. Dr. Ketter wrote that student fees could be used “at the level and for the purposes heretofore approved” meaning that health ventures already in operation could receive funding, but new health services such as the proposed pharmacy would require further — - — approval. Existing services OK The Trustees also instructed Tom Mou, a high-level SUNY official responsible for health operations, to compile a report on the type, extent and funding source for health care operations on all State University campuses. This report, expected during the summer, could conceivably advise against using student fees for health services, but in light of the Trustees’ action, no one seemed to think it would. Dr. Ketter even expressed the hope that “I would like to see the State begin to fund health services.” The health operations affected by President Ketter’s order include the Birth Control Clinic, clinical laboratory, pregnancy counseling, and administrative and educational programs of Sub-Board’s health care division. A1 Campagna, Health Care division director, was very pleased by the decision and even speculated that “there is a possibility of lowering prices” now that student fees can again be tapped. Sub-Board’s health operations have been operating on a “revolving account,” which technically does not involve student fees, since expenditures by the Birth Control Clinic were vetoed in March by vice-president for Student Affairs Anthony Lorenzetti. The Birth Control Clinic has been forced to raise prices because of this veto. Dr. Lorenzetti questioned whether the Clinic was a proper expenditure of student fees and the entire health care controversy resulted. When asked what yet-unfunded health ventures would require new Administration approval, Dr. Ketter mentioned an X-ray unit and preventative health maintenance operation which have been proposed, along with a Sub-Board pharmacy. “We have to look at new ventures very carefully in view of the State’s scrutiny of health care operations,” Dr. Ketter explained. Dr. Lorenzetti said he was “very pleased” by the Trustees’ decision to “consider the question of health care as a whole.” Mr. Campagna said he hoped students would have input into Dr. Mou’s study for the Trustees on SUNY health operations. “I hope Mou’s report will not change the situation any," said Mr. Campagna. Fail within the guidelines In the midst of the controversy, Dr. Ketter had received a letter from SUNY legal counsel Walter Relihan which was basically negative in tone, advising that while allowing fees to be used for health care was “not beyond the pale of presidential discretion,’’ it was inadvisable and the University might face legal repercussions from a possible lawsuit. Feeling he could not act without firm support from Albany, Dr. Ketter ruled that student fees could not be used for health services but promised to take the issue to the Board of Trustees, to persuade them to amend their fee guidelines to include health care. Dr. Ketter has been informed that as a result of the Trustees’ discussion last week, he will now receive another letter from Mr. Relihan which will supercede the first. “In essence, the Trustees by this action have defined (for the present) that expenditures for health care delivery can be reasonably presumed to fall . within the [fee] Guidelines currently in existence,” wrote Dr. Ketter in his letter allowing student fees to fund existing health services once again. �Patient ignorance and physician deterrriinism, resulting from elitism in the medical profession, was also a problem. Analyzing the question of care and the decisions involved, Dr. Duff declared: “Patients, families and physicians must decide which treatment is appropriate for a patient. We cannot impose a comfortable but inappropriate morality, fostered by specialists, which states that we must keep a patient alive at all costs.” of from the emphasis on specialization and scientification In deciding treatment, Dr. Duff continued, the rights the medical profession. “With the shift in emphasis to of the-patient and the patient’s family must be taken into specialization and the development of the physician as a account.

Raymond Duff, associate professor at Yale Medical School, was invited to the State University of Buffalo, Friday, to speak on “Some Ethical Problems in Modem Medicine.” Sponsored by the School of Medicine and the Protestant Campus Ministry of Western New York United Ministries in Higher Education, Dr. Duffs lecture consisted of a reading and discussion of an article he co-authored with Dr. A.G.M. Campbell of Aberdeen, Scotland. The article appeared in the New England Journal of Medicine and argued that in certain instances, the congenitally defective infant should not automatically be kept alive by an intensive care unit, and that life-or-death decisions should be made by parents and hospital staffs. — - Independent ideas Dr. Duff emphasized that his ideas and theories in no way reflected the philosophy of Yale Medical School or the Yale New Haven Hospital. The first part of the lecture traced the development of the medical profession “personality,” emphasizing the relationship b dwecn medical technology and medical morality i nthe United States today. The modem American medical ethic can be expressed his statement: “Death is the enemy of modern by medicine. The erasing of disease is the aim of modern medicine. As the bomb conquered the enemy in World War II, so must medical technology seek to destroy disease.” Medicine is now divorced from social context, Dr. Duff implied. The result: “Every cure is a half-cure. We keep people functioning satisfactorily, but some exist as %olely biologically functioning organisms without much else.” Ethic emerges The emergence of this ethic, explained Dr. Duff, stems alive with advances in medical technology. into research while programs to expand was poured Money health care were disregarded. Medical advancements were likened to such achievements as the moon landing and the development of nuclear power. At the same time, medical treatment suffered. Such phrases as “the poor provide the clinical material for medical education” reflected the status of American me dical care. The result of these movements, said Dr. Duff, is the inability of the new practitioners to deal with the increasing number of the old and dying. Unlike their predecessors, these doctors had to be concerned with the maintainence of a public image and the advancement of technology al ong with patient care. to k eep them Newspaper btU .... he added There has been a great deal of lobbying against the bill by school newspapers and student governments.

WITHOUT AN APPOINTMENT!!! �Budget delays Adjournment ofSA meeting allows new members to vote (BSU), Community Action Corps (CAC), WNYPIRG, and the Jewish Student Union (JSU) among others. by Jeffrey S. Linder Contributing Editor Impeaci The issue of budget priorities was left unresolved Monday because a Student Judiciary (SJ) restraining order prevented debate on the Student Association (SA) budget. As bickering between certain Student Assembly members and the coalition of interest groups continued, the Assembly voted, for the first time in two weeks, to adjourn. The recesses at the past three meetings have prevented 21 new members, who have petitioned to join the Assembly, from voting on the proposed SA budget. The immediate effect of Monday’s adjournment will be to include these 21 new voting members. Originally the restraining order, brought by Assemblyperson Gary Schwartz, was to have ended on Sunday. Its goal was to prevent voting on the budget until SA published an audit of its past spending. The Student Judiciary Sunday denied a request by the defense to dismiss the case. New evidence had come to light and it was felt that there was enough evidence to pursue the litigation, explained WNYPIRG counsel Jack Finnerty. The Judiciary extended the restraining order on passing SA budgets for three days; it will end tonight at 8 p.m. ment Abuse of power seen as threat to free state by Michael O’Neill National Editor and will abuse power unless something is done now,” said Mr. Glasser. “Excessive use of power per se is a violation of rights because rights are limits upon power. By definition a President with unlimited powers wipes out the whole concept of rights.” There are many facets to the question of impeachment, but the ones directly relating to civil liberties are being focused on by Ira Glasser, executive director of the New York Civil Liberties Union. The drive to impeach Richard Nixon has slowly gained momentum, but, Mr. Glasser recalled, “When the drive for impeachment began last September, it was a radical step forward. Few can remember how afraid we were to touch it.” The presentation of the Civil Liberties Union approach to the question of impeachment followed a year-end report Sunday night on the various projects conducted by local task forces in Buffalo and Western New "York. An award for distinguished service was presented to Dorothy Shields, a secretary to State Senator Arthur Eve, for the legislator’s service to both thd community and the cause of civil liberties. Defense of abuses He listed a series of Presidential abuse, carefully explaining how each transgression was defended. “The invasion of Cambogia Nixon did it in sepret; the Constitution said it couldn’t be done that way. The PftSidftft said he had the right because of national security. The May Day demonstrations ia Washington: 13,000 demonstrators were put in jail, herded into stadiums (a full — year-and-a-half before Chile) [was justified by evoking] the Doctrine of Qualified Material Law, which no one had ever heard of before or after. The break-in at the office of Daniel Ellsberg’s psychiatrist (was defended] along the lines of national security.” These precedents are dangerous ones, added Mr. Glasser. “There is something necessarily antagonistic between power and liberty,” explained Mr. Glasser. From the viewpoint of a civil libertarian, the threat of Presidential usurpation of power presents an extremely dangerous threat to the future of a free state. Valuable lesson Referring to the threat of impeachment as a “lesson for all Lack of shame Mr. Glasser, whose speech was Presidents that follow Richard vaguely reminiscent at times of a Nixon,” Mr. Glasser said: “We Allen night club have the opportunity to vote once Woody performance, lambasted President again whether the Bill of Rights Nixon: “1 think there’s something will be included in the special about Richard Nixon. His Constitution.” He emphasized the lack of shame, his pervasiveness, importance of the whole function his insistence that ‘Presidential of impeachment within the power is not limited’ make him democratic process and urged that different from those who went impeachment not h( used as a before him and committed similar means of rewriting the results of the last election. abuse; of power.” The Niagara Frontier of the Mr. Glasser cited a number of historical instances were Civil Liberties Union has been Presidential power was abused, organizing the local drive for the but was very careful to point out impeachment of President Nixon that ‘‘past Presidents have since last fall. They have placed justified it because it was a case of their emphasis on encouraging to -write their emergency, and treated their voters transgressions almost Representatives: “Just say what you think of the whole mess and apologetically.” “Richard Nixon does not be sure to add that you’ll matter; the issue is all those who remember the issue when you go will come after Richard Nixon to the polls.” New evidence An SA spokesman said that the new evidence brought to light is a group of REP (requisition) forms. These forms must be completed for any expense by a student-funded group, and require the signatures of the SA Treasurer and someone from the Administration. It is not yet known what these REP forms may reveal or what impact they will have on the budget proceedings. It is generally agreed that they may contain potentially explosive information. SA Treasurer Sal Napoli commented: “We were Of a ftat thar the A»e»ihlyvwpuld recessing be stacked. We were being accused of trying to keep people from joining the Assembly,” he continued. “We just want to go on with legislation.” Mr. Napoli agreed that the inclusion of the new members wil) “have an effect that will show up” when the Assembly finally votes on the budgets. However, SA President Frank Jackalone feels that the only effect the new members will have on the Assembly is that there will be an opportunity to pass a budget. “I don’t think it will be stacked and the inclusion of the new members will have a marginal effect on the outcome of the budget vote,” noted Mr. Jackalone. Priorities questioned The dispute arose out of arguments concerning SA spending priorities. A statement by the Community/University Coalition in last Friday’s The Spectrum stated: “We feel that all these ogranizations [Health Care, Day Care, Legal Aid, WNYP1RG, CAC, minority student groups, etc.] are supported by and give service to many more students than the organizations in the Athletic Department, and thus Observe to be given a much higher priority in the SA budget allocations.” SA claims that a number of problems including more clubs, the loss of a reserve fund, a debt from past years and an inflationary spiral arose in this year’s budget that prevented many sectors from receiving the allocations they sought. Student Association’s statement to The Spectrum emphasized this strain on student funds. The nature of the budgetary dispute remains vague. Some term it “racial” while others contend that it is nothing of the sort. According to one student at Monday’s Assembly meeting, it is a confrontation between the SA Executive and Finance Committees versus the coalition of interest groups and minority students. However, Mr. Napoli explained that SA is not “against” the coalition. “I think that a lot of their notions are valid,” he said. The coalition includes the Black Student Union Tactics successful Paul Mones, former WNYPIRG director, is convinced that “pressure tactics paid off’ by getting the Assembly to adjourn instead of recess Moriday’s meeting. ‘There is a multi-coordinated effort by the and it’s the first time that blacks and coalition whites have gotten together on this campus to demand changes,” Mr. Mones claimed. “People have definitely changed their minds and modds. We’ve won an important definitely changed their minds and moods. We’ve won an important them before.” Assemblyperson David Ettingcr helped file a class action for a declaratory judgment at the Student Judiciary because the Assembly had recessed its meeting three times. According to Robert’s Rules of Order, he argued, there should have been an adjournment. Mr. Ettinger explained the reason for Monday’s adjournment: “I think it [the case] scared them. They didn’t want to get involved in two cases, so they gave in,” referring to his case and the extended restraining order involving the audit. “This is a major victory,” declared CAC director David Chavis. ‘This will bring everything out into the open, leaving the final decision to the Assembly. ... It will probably help us by giving us slightly more representation on the Assembly,” Mr. Chavis continued. “Previously the Assembly was not representative of students. Now a preferred budget will go through.” - - Going overboard One of the new members who will be able to vote for the first time at the next Assembly meeting, Tom Devine, said that he felt the coalition was going a “bit overboard.” He explained: “It happens all the time in politics. A group will ask for more than it expects so as to get as much as possible.” The coalition will be presenting an alternative budget at the next Assembly meeting which would cut over $40,000 from the athletic budget and would eliminate crew, cross country, fencing, golf, swimming, tennis and track. It would also cut the budget for spring baseball and promotion for the gym. The budget that will be proposed will also —continued on pag* 5— Wednesday, 1 May 1974 The Spectrum Page three . . �Transcripts show..

The next graduate admission test is Commentary *Reasonable doubt and weak case acquits Mitchell Stans 9 , by Marc Jacobson City Editor The acquittal of two former Cabinet members, Maurice Stans and John Mitchell, on charges of IS counts of obstruction of justice, perjury and conspiracy is understandable but unfortunate. Through able defense lawyers, the two men avoided lengthy jail sentences and fines. Their lawyers proved there was “a reasonable doubt” that they committed the crimes of which they were accused. Mr. Mitchell’s comment; “We got to the jury system, and that always works. Our fate was resting with a very fine jury a cross-section of Americans," illuminates an interesting problem the defense lawyers faced admirably. That is, when there is conflicting testimony between defense and prosecution witnesses, the defense strategy is to prove that there is a reasonable doubt. As the former Nixon re-election campaign manager’s lawyer put it: “Who do you believe John Mitchell or John Dean?” Although the question in many people’s minds was answered properly, there are those who believe otherwise. - - One down, one to go The jury, in justifying its verdict, said they couldn’t understand why men of Mitchell’s and Stans’ stature would have a “need” to commit crimes of this nature. But crimes by those in power are never committed out of need they are solely for stabilizing their position and securing their power further. Only the poor and social outcasts commit crimes out of need. For some, believing the former Attorney General is more difficult than believing John Dean. But the broader implications of this new development are more interesting. Mr. Mitchell still must stand trial in Washington, D.C. on charges of obstruction of justice. The possibility of the man going to jail still exists. The effect of Sunday’s acquittal on the impeachment inquiry in the House has yet to be measured. Nevertheless, the speculation has begun to fly. Press reports on the mood of the House Judiciary Committee have indicated a willingness to impeach. As all Representatives are still politicians, they must respond to their constituents. If the Judiciary Committee votes for impeachment as expected, it will only focus on those few charges that the members are sure will be upheld in a Senate trial. (The full House is widely expected to vote for impeachment if the Judiciary Committee recommends it.) Obviously, the secret $200,000 Robert Vesco contribution, which Stans and Mitchell were accused of letting influence an investigation into Vesco’s affairs, will not be one of those charges. But the Representatives who must accuse the President of impeachable offenses which may cost them their jobs will be very sure have excellent reasons for they making such accusations. — - — scheduled for July 13, 1974, registration deadline is June 21.

Supporters will insist that even the President’s closest advisors were innocent of any wrongdoing, even though Mr. Mitchell still must stand trial for another obstruction of justice charge. If Mr. Nixon’s closest men are innocent, then how could the President be guilty of any crime? This, of John Mitchell course, is a radical twist for those who have long said that only the men around Mr. Nixon were guilty. Indeed, the entire Nixonian defense may become believable that the entire Watergate affair is conspiracy launched by the Eastern press and Democratic liberals to avenge the loss of George McGovern. — % But obviously, that is not the case. John Dean has pleaded guilty to obstruction of justice, Herbert Porter and Donald Segretti have pleaded guilty as well. These lower-echelon men who conceivably did the dirty work for the men on top may be the White House aides who will sacrifice the most. It is a fact that serious abuses of power occurred, and some White House aides have pleaded guilty to them. If the abuses were carried out down the hall from the Oval Office, chances are the President knew about them. If he did not, was not Mr. Nixon incompetent as President for being totally unaware that all his aides are breaking the law? One is reminded of Anthony Lewis’ constant references to a corporation president, whose men all committed similar crimes such as sabotage and obstruction of justice, yet he denied any knowledge and remained president. Would you buy stock in that company? , a Vesco, who fled the country after indictments issued involving his J200.000 cash contribution, now resides in Venezuala, where U.S. attempts to extradite him have failed. Fleeing to a were country where extradition is difficult, is obviously an attempt to cover another crime. One of the jurors in the Mitchell trial wrote a note, found in the garbage, which read: “Nixon and Vesco is needed for proof.” It’s unfortunate that the President was not subpenoaed; perhaps the real truth was never found.

Sharon Leirruky Director, Pregnancy Counseling Service Health care: enlightened decision The SUNY Board of Trustees' agreement to allow student fees to be used for health care services on this campus is an enlightened decision, welcome news for students, and a personal vindication for President Robert Ketter. While wisely ordering a full study of health services on all State University campuses which we hope will underscore the need for the State to increase funding for health care at the Trustees apparently all SUNY schools recognized the inadequacy of health services at this University and the desire of students here to pay to improve them. The Trustees neither sidestepped the issue, nor allowed the emotional feelings which have surrounded the which funding of the Birth Control Clinic to influence their launched the controversy decision. While many students bore with Or. Ketter during the difficult weeks of legalistic interpretations, others'were mistrustful of his motives. Why didn't Ketter simply use his "presidential discretion" and allow student - - - — fees to continue to fund health care? Because without firm backing from Albany, Dr. Ketter was on shaky legal ground and his pledge to persuade the Trustees torperm it fees to be used for health care turned out to be no empty — promise. Although it earned him skepticism and criticism, Dr. Ketter insisted on finding a larger answer including exploring alternative ways of funding health services if the Trustees' ruling should be negative. But he went out on a limb by setting up a "revolving account" to keep the Birth Control Clinic operating during the dispute. While Dr. Ketter may be open to criticism in many areas, such as a lack of academic leadership, his integrity as his successful fight for the Trustees' approval for student-funded health services has again cannot be questioned. We hope the proven State will wake up to its responsibility to increase funding for campus health care and that the Trustees will not reverse their sensible decision to allow University students to spend theirfees on their health. Rige six The Spectrum Wednesday, 1 May 1974 . . — — — — Some good news? To the Editor: After reading Friday, April 26 edition of The Spectrum, I was very distressed and depressed because of all the hassles, conflicts, and open and feeling hostility concerning the SA Budget there was nothing I could do. This probably says - — much more about me than the paper, or even the issue. But I was wondering; a common gripe about the news media is it is always “bad news” oriented. Couldn’t we start a “good news” section at U.B. With reports about people being happy, enjoying themselves, good times at SA funtions, or religious group functions, or some success stories out of CAC, positive actions to change bad living on campus, wedding reports just any and all events that show — people happy. This is not to make me or anyone else ignore the ■ hard realities of tough issues and the like. I guess I would just like to know that somewhere around here there arc some people enjoying life. (P.S. I know some, but it rarely gets show in the public media.) Rod Saunders �JSU supports Coalition To the Editor: : * 1 • gt- TfVi' * ■*|P , :• t >, by Dave Simon As of Wednesday, April 25 the Jewish Student Union voted to join the Student Coalition. We fully suuport its goals. n A major issue which had prevented our support centered around the anti-semitism which we felt pervaded some of the statements made at previous meetings. However, as the President of the Black Student Union has agreed to retract any and all remarks felt to be offensive, we are confident of the Coalition's integrity. The JSU further feels that it is to the benefit of all the Jewish students on this campus that an alliance is made with the Student Coalition to aid in their e'fforts to achieve student unity. Steve Kolodny President Jewish Student Union Time to set priorities To the Editor. By the time this letter reaches the University community, there very well might have been some compromise in the Student Association’s budget dispute. Nonetheless, there are many discrepancies relayed through the student press that need to be cleared up. 1) Thisd World Student groups are not asking for all of their student fees returned. What they are asking for is a percentage that represents fee money that is used for activities, projects, etc., that Third World students do not use. With this money a committee of representatives from each Third World student group (an equal number of representatives from each club) under the Minority Affairs Coordinator, will decide on how this money will be allocated. 2) This is not a fight for money for only those groups represented in the Coalition (i.e., BSU, WYNPIRG, CAC, JSU, etc.) Major increases in allocations were suggested by the Student Coalition for Intramurals, Clubs and Health Care as well. Should we pay for the presitge of having an all-star athletic program (which we, don’t have)? Should" 'wd pay for athldtic "prestige at all? That is what we are asking the Student Association. Do the students of this University want that prestige of the .prestige, of, having,the,IqtgesCpurqjJtudent Volunteer organization in the country (CAC), groups like WNYPIRG and CAC who give the University more positive, media coverage iq a month than the entire athletic program has given the University in two years; the largest and most comprehensive quality student health care service in the state or maybe in the country; a student governfhfent that is responsive to the needs of the students. This is what we are asking. ? The Student Association officers have been working hard on these budget matters. Unfortunately they feel the steps we are asking are too “radical.” We understand their efforts are sincere, but we are asking them to respond to the students and what they want. Tell them what you want, write your SA officers. Contrary to the opinions of SA the time to decide what are our priorities is now. David Chavis Director, CAC The SpccT^iiM Vol. 24, No. 81 Amidst the current Student Association budget choas two points seem neglected that I’d like to elaborate on. The words income-offset have been thrown around during the last few budget “seasons”; income-offset means an organization generates income to reduce the need for a subsidy from student fees; a total income-offset group thus requires no subsidy. Organizations with possible sources of incopie (such as advertising in the case of publication) can thereby reduce or eliminate their dependence on student fees by applying such income to their budget. As a by-product, the actual users of services pay at least partically for them, allowing the fee money saved to be used for activities where all the students can benefit. In a broad sense, these would include the smaller UUAB committees, athletic teams such as crew and track, and the special-interest publications such as An and Women’s Voices. In other examples, the CAC movies supplement their programs in the community, and The Spectrum pays about 75% of its own expenses through advertising income. My first question then centers around the Athletic Department, the second-largest user of student fees. Last Friday The Spectrum acknowledged that spectator sports such as hockey and basketball should be supported, possibly to the detriment of the smaller teams who draw less fanfare. However, in my opinion, in just the same manner that admission fees are charged for UUAB concerts and movies, charging students for admission to varsity sporting events (when practical) is a way of easing the budget crunch whicl letting users help pay for what . they use. A $l/student ticket structure for home $2.50/non-student basketball and hockey games is not unreasonable, and probably would not affect attendance in the least. In the case of hockey, you’d get to see a game and skate afterwards for the same price as a UUAB movie both partially subsidized and real bargains. If 2000 people at $1 each attended 25 games, the — - -- total income would be $50,000; enough additional income to pay for expansions in women’s and intramural sports and avoid the discontinuance of the smaller teams. As for assitional costs of charging admissions and and security, they would be minimal, considering the outrageous amounts how being spent on printing professional tickets and keeping a ticket office open. The second area I’d like to explore is the use of student fees of, by and for the students who are forced to pay them. Two representative organizations immediately come to mind. The first, a minor but representative one, was the funding last year of the publication Akwesasne Notes, a newspaper written by Indians and produced for Indians. Very feww is any students were involved in its operation and probably only a few more have actually seen a copy; nevertheless every student here was forced to pay {ox Akwesasne Notes. Mandatory student fees should riot be used as a charity fund for outsiders; students are poor enough. A less blatant potential area for misuse of student money is WNYPIRG’s proposed budget. They want to hire, at a cost in the vicinity pf $17,000, two full-time people to coordinate their organization. This would be akin to The Spectmm hiring professional reporters and UUAB taking on Harvey and COrky to run their affairs. There is no evidence that students on small stipends could not do the same job that “professionals” on large salaries could do, at least as their research would relate to student needs. The eidtor of The Spectrum puts in about 70 hours of work a week for the fantastic sum of 58 cents per hour; can’t WNYPIRG find any dedicated students with research abilities? The only way spending abuses can be controlled is be an informed constituency feeding back their priorities to SA and Sub-Board. A computerized preference form would be a good start in that direction, as was the SA pie-chart published last month which listed where student money is currently going. It’s about time the average person got involved in the annual budget process. Clarification by Siggeltcow To life Editor: pr! vrlw vajgvrn a am 992 n aKMv» replaced “not,” so the corrected statement should 'read! , ' t’erha{& if requires too hrubh courage for student leaders to justify decisions that are sometimes influenced through fear, harrassment, and intimidation by special interest groups, even when these are not always truly representative of any homogeneous constituency.’* ■ Incidentally, I am convinced that if the student body were again asked to vote on whether or not to support athletics, the decision would heavily favor continuing such support. I cite this to illustrate the difficulties faced by and Student Association, which must somehow reflect how the students want their monies expended, despite tactics used by those representing special interests. Finally, to further update my statement, 1 should also add that I am entirely in support of the present Student Association, an unusually responive and dedicated group. <) noyil/i Primarily for the sake of clarity, I must correct two typographical errors that appeared in the article under my name on page 10 of last Friday’s The Spectrum. The sentence, “And, whether they like it or not, students are now virtually committed to a four (!) year period of such expenditures, sincere there is no present requirement for an annual referendum procedure,” should read “And, whether they like it or not, students are nor virually committed to a four (!) year period of such expenditures, since there is no present requirement for an annual referendum procedure.” The other sentence that must be changed, because the meaning itself was altered, presently reads: “Perhaps it requires too much courage for student government leaders to justify decisions that are sometimes influenced through fear, harassment, and intimidation by special interest groups, even when these are now always truly representative of any homogeneous constituency.” The word “now” Richard A.

Buses will be leaving Norton Union at 10 a.m. and 10 p.m. Friday as part of an international motorcade to Washington, D.C. for the Progressive Labor Party’s May Day March for Socialism to be held there on Saturday, May 4th. Students and workers from Canada and Puerto Rico, as well as from all across the U.S., will converge upon the capitol to celebrate May Day and to the international socialist holiday demand workers’ control of government, industry and education. In calling the march, the Progressive Labor Party feels that the rapid deterioration of the standard of living of all middle- and working-class families in the U.S. and around the world has led to a.wualitiative jump in the number of people ready to consider solutions to the present srises (oil, food, jobs, Watergate) outside of the — — capitalistic framework. Capitalism: more of the same At SUNYAB, cutbacks in the Colleges, EOP, CAC, WNYPIRG, health care, day care, financial aid, frad assistantships, tuition waivers, veterans’ benefits etc., etc., combined with the pitiful job market, “make it clear that those who run the U.S. economy, government and schools for their private profit cannot meet our needs,” PL claims. In pointing to socialism as the only real solution to the above mentioned problems, PL maintains that no capitalist politican, whether conservative or liberal, has anything to offer us but more of the same: “more inflation, more lay-offs, more racist ’delays’ in£OP checks, more political reprisals against faculty and students, and more cops to enforce the cutbacks and harass those of us who fight back.” Mark the beginning of the end qf capitalism by joining in its revolutionary May Day celebration and by returning home to seriously build the socialist movement, PL asks. Its main demands to unify the working-class are: “Smash Racism!” and “Thirty Hours Work for Forty Hours Pay!” The U.B. Vets Club has already endorsed the march. Round trip bus fare to the May Day demonstration costs $25. People can register at the PL table in the Center Lounge (Norton Hall) from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. today, May 1st, contact Sylvia Dick in 305 MacDonald Hall, or call 876-5131 or 862-4267.

This is an “opportunity for purchasing a tree for McCarthy students to get together with Park.

In addition, Western New York Richard Sokolow, who has been the Foundation will buy one tree for each one the community can match.

They should be hanged for their political views Repression spread to other cities: the entire executive board ofthe Knights of Labor in Milwaukee was arrested and charged with “rioting and conspiracy,” and the executive board of District Assembly 75 of the Knights of Labor were arrested in New York. Parsons left town, anticipating persecution. Within a few days, indictments for “conspiracy to murder” were handed down for Spies, Fielden, Parsons and five others. On the first day of the trial, Parsons . appeared. The trial was a farce. The police threatened some trial witnesses, some witnesses were paid, and a relative of one of the dead policemen sat on the jury. All defendants were convicted and all but one was sentenced to death by hanging. Neebe, who received )S years, addressed the court: “I saw that the I helped organize them. bakers in this city were treated like dogs That is a great crime. The men are now working ten hours a day instead that is another crime.” of fourteen and sixteen hours Parsons addressed the courtroom, charging that the thrower of the bomb had been hired by industrialists from New York, intent on destroying the eight-hour movement. He declared the innocence of the defendants, and charged that they were tried and convicted because of their political beliefs. He declared himself a socialist, and supported “the right of the toiler to have free and equal use of tools of production and the right of the producers to their product.” One Chicago businessman declared: “No, I don’t consider these I do people to be guilty of any offense, but they must be hanged consider that the labor movement must be crushed!” .. ... ... But August Spies struck at the heart of the matter: ‘if you think by hanging us you can stamp out the labor movement... the movement from which the down-trodden millions, the millions who toil in want and misery, expect salvation if this is your opinion, then hang us! Here you will tread upon a spade, but there and there, behind you and in front of you, and everywhere, flames blaze up. It is a subterranean fire. You can not put it out...” Lucy Parsons began touring the country, speaking to thousands about the Haymarket martyrs. Soon the protest movement spread across the country; thousands appealed for clemency. Protest marches took place in Italy, France, Spain, Russia, Holland and England. The day before the execution in 1877, the death sentences of Fielden and Schwab were commuted tp life. Lingg was murdered or ‘committed suicide’ in his cell. Parsons, Spies, Engel and Fischer were hanged. Maude Holmes Arboretum The concepts behind McCarthy Park~may be attributed to a work force of University students, faculty, community residents and City Hall officials. In addition to the landscaping, the planners designed the layout for an playground, adventure tour tennis, three basketball and four handball courts, a picnic area and a shelter house. With the help of University District Councilman Bill Price, $85,000 will be allocated by City Hall for the park in next year’s capital budget. Joseph Michaeli, student head of the playground designing, explained the highlights of this innovative facility: “It doesn’t draw on the traditional play forms. Instead, there will be flexible forms which can be in interpreted many ways, allowing for the most amount of creativity on the part of the action. Leaders of an international association of labor set this day for an international eight-hour struggle. Since that day, people all over the world have celebrated May 1 as Internationa) Workers Day. On the day of the Haymarket executions, the American people lost some of the best sons of the working class.

The Bulls finished third, scoring 31 points. Buffalo trailed victorious Albany and host Stony Brook, who scored 85 and 60 points respectively, and they sneaked past Binghamton’s 29 points. Once again, freshman Eldred Stephens was responsible for much of Buffalo’s scoring. He racked up 15 of the 31 Bull points in winning the triple jump, long jump and 100-yard dash. These three wins give Stephens a total of ten wins in his 11 events this year. His only miss was a second place finish in the triple jump at Brockport. Coach Jim McDonough termed Stephens’ long jump and 100-yard dash performances as “mediocre,” thereby signifying that the outstanding work of Stephens has become commonplace this season. Stephens’ 10.0 in the hundred was his second of the year and reties the school record, hardly a “mediocre” performance by normal standards. In the triple jump, McDonough praised Stephens for his second jump of over 47 feet this year (the first broke the school record), and if not for the quick getaway which the Bulls were forced to make to catch their plane, Eldred might have done it again Not to be overlooked in all the commotion about Stephens is junior Mike Corbc«r€orbo«t ■vPhs the only Bull winner beside Stephens, and he won twice, scoring in the discus (135’7”) and the hammer throw (124’11”),' breaking the school record in tlje latter. “He’s handy to have around,” observed McDonough. The Bulls could conceivably have improved their performance if not for their tight schedule. The start of the meet was delayed and preliminary races in almost every event were necessary due to the unanticipated large number of entrants. McDonough said that Buffalo would have won the pole vault and perhaps scored in the mile relay, but there was no time to stay. “As they were running the mile relay, we were jumping in our rpnted cars to get to MacArthur,” he noted. Aside from forfeiting the relay and the pole vault, Buffalo was hurt in the triple jump and the javelin. Through it all, though, McDonough was still pleased with the Bulls’ showing: “We were happy to beat Binghamton. Last year we finished fourth in this meet.” Buffalo journeys to Ohio Wednesday to face Cleveland State and Central State. The Vikings are solid all around, while Central State has some good sprinters and jumpers. “1 hope we can beat Central State,” commented McDonough.

I The Spectrum Vol. 24, No. 80 Monday, 29 April 1974 State University of New York at Buffalo •servi This is not an excerpt from a piece of fiction, but part of what Tom Wolfe has called the “new journalism,” or what its critics call “parajoumalism.’ Journalism, like every other field, has undergone many radical changes during the past decade. To meet a wide variety of public demands, the news media has channelled itself along many distinct avenues. This “segmentation of the press,” explained Douglas Turner, Executive Editor of the Buffalo Courier-Express, “is a reaction to a cultural fission. The campus newspaper now has a life and purpose of its own,” Mr. Turner said. “They are no longer the faculty-approved ‘cutie pie’ things they used to be, but now serve as a polemical device that related to student demands. They do a better job and have a greater , and record the dynamics of life.” ft is characterized by “scene-by-scene descriptions of external settings,” “superficial rather than a historical narrative.” The New Journalism records dialogue as a and means of “establishing defining, a character” while view employing “point of narration.” Wolfe’s own writing has been characterized by typographical variations, simultaneous usage of slang and foreign terms, and an absurd choice of subject matter. John Seelye, writing for The New Republic, says of this new journalism: “It is basically satire, its subject matter being what is left over after The New York Times has been put to bed.” contemporary Terribly readable’ Mr. Seelye also finds this journalism “New York-bom and bred, tough, witty, unmerciful to Weeklies tap the market believes the all manner of pretense, jazzy, Mr. Turner suburban and urban weeklies try alive, and terribly readable.” to appeal to a diversity of groups, The movement began in the tapping these segmented markets early 1960’s with Gay Talese, and Breslin, for their commercial profit. He Jimmy feels that a publication like the novelists-turned-journalists Buffalo New Times absorbs the Truman Capote, Norman Mailer cost of the underground press, but and James Baldwin, employing techniques novelistic in the not the responsibilities. Tom Wolfe’s “new journalism” writing of journalism. It started is an explicit attempt to alter a out at Esquire magazine, and then traditional style. In his anthology, Esquire Editor Clay Fclker left containing that publication to found New Journalism, New samples of some experimental York Magazine, where the flame approaches, he describes the new was encouraged. Dwight Macdonald, a noted mode as an attempt to “capture independence.” movie reviewer and political essayist for Esquire and other magazines, and also a visiting professor of English at the State University of Buffalo, is one of those who chooses to call this style He accepts this kind of reporting from Norman Mailer because he is accurate and honest; “Mailer makes a dialogue lead up to something,” explained Mr. Macdonald, citing Mailer’s Armies of the Night, in which Mailer reports an antiwar march to the Pentagon entirely from his own point of view. “He makes up the dialogues. Using roughly what has happened, he gets a sense of the situation. He has a good memory for the crux, and then he weaves a dialogue around it," Mr. Macdonald observed. He added that those witnessing the actual persons dialogue, even those speaking, would not be able to recognize that dialogue Mailer’s was fabricated. ‘Gimmick’ style On the other hand, “Truman Capote is limited to direct quotations,” Mr. Macdonald said. “In Cold Blood is dead and sterile; Capote is inhibited from expressing his imagination. It is a record, a gimmick.” But he noted that as a researcher. Capote could not keep himself out of the story; he could not help imposing Iris character on the people he interviewed. “After the eighth tm population, Mr. ' Turner claims these publications do not discuss the destruction of society, but only praise, it. daily The metropolitan newspaper differs in that it only tells the facts, no matter who it hurts, even if it Op-Ed pages better Admitting that the daily newspapers do not have enough time to concern themselves with these pursuits, he remarked that the editorial and Op-Ed pages of hurts itself, Mr. Turner observed.

The committee membra wm be chosen Thursday, May 2, at 2 p.m. in Room 107 Townsend Hall. foreign Twice-published SCATE stillfacing problems There are many reasons offered why this University has periodically failed to produce a SCATE (Student Course and Teacher Evaluation). They range from the lack of funds to the ill effects of the 1970 campus disruptions. llie first SCATE published at this University was released in March of 1968. It states its goals “... to better the educational experience offered in the classrooms through constructive criticism of the present standards.” The last SCATE published at this University was released under the auspices of the Analysis of Teachers and Courses (ACT) program. It covers courses during the'Spring 1973 semester. The purpose of this SCATE according to a former associate director of the ACT program Bruce Francis teaching la twofold. To improve effectiveness and to help students choose their courses. Unresponsive faculty The only other SCATE published was released in the Fall of 1969. Fifty percent of the questionnaires sent out were returned. The “Introduction” to the 1969 SCATE attributed the infrequency of such evaluations to “the lack of responsiveness on the part of the faculty.” This lack of responsiveness became only part of the problems that the next SCATE committee was to face. This committee was formed the year following the Spring 1969 campus unrest. Anthony Lorenzetti, Vice-President for Student Affairs, explains that a group of students asked him to sponsor them in an effort to produce a comprehensive SCATE. The Research Foundation of the State University of New York appropriated $4,600 for this project. The students who were interested in coordinating this effort managed to get responses from a number of courses, according to Dr. Lorenzetti. “1 had my secretaries begin to type up the results but we never heard from the group of students Dr. again,” Lorenzetti. explained According to records in Dr. Lorenzetti’s flies only $300 was spent from the original allocation. The funds might conceivably, according to Dr. Lorenzetti, still be available for use. According to Dr. -Lorenzetti, a number of cartons were filled with typed material but the students never came back for it. They apparently lost interest in the project. The Spring of 1970 was filled with too much upheaval to get a SCATE committee off the ground, according to the Director of Instructional Services and Testing, Allen Kuntz. Dr. Kuntz attributed this lack of interest to the failure of the SCATE which Dr. Lorenzetti had sponsored. “The events of 69-70 had a terrible effect Students were utterly demoralized, things here were utterly chaotic. SCATE died for this reason. Dr. Kuntz explained. . .. ' Apparently many teachers were dissatisfied with the SCATE system because, as Dr. Kuntz commented, “it was an ill-conceived venture in free responses concerning professors that could not really be summarized.” Charles Ebert, dean of Undergraduate Studies said only two or three out of 100 comments were chosen to go into the 1968 and 1969 SCATE booklets. Although the Research Foundation had offered over $4,500 for a SCATE project, Dr. Ebert cited a 71-72 budget cutback as a possible reason for the absence of a He also SCATE. mentioned the unwillingness of Student Association to flgyj operation as they had done with 1969 SCATEs. '^ en Robert Ketter took offlcc j 97Q he Dr Kuntz to part in a task f orce studying the teaching goals of thjj Based on the UniVcrsity. recommendations of this committee, the Faculty Senate asked Dr . Kuntz to direct a program on student evaluations that would improve teaching effectiveness, This program became the ACT. Snarls in the ACT program are presently being worked out in the Faculty-Senate, Tbe only other SCATE on this campus is published by Millard Fillmore College. The University Survey of Courses and Teaching (USOCAT) is directed by Robert K. Rott, associate Dean for Research and Evaluation in4he School of Nursing. It is similar to the program in that it uses a standard computerized questionnaire. . ANNUAL DECISIONS... CHOICES...

Mr. Samuels, who is generally conceded to be the front-runner for the Democratic nomination for Governor denied him in 1970, consistently struck — out against the Republican Governorship of Rockefeller and Wilson: “The interest on Nelson Rockefeller’s Albany Mall could feed all the poor people in the state.” After calling for “law-and-order in Washington” by “giving Richard Nixon a fair trial after we impeach him,” Mr. Samuels criticized the “corrupt” state government: “We have to open the committees in the State Legislature. They should hold open meetings, as in California. You go there during the last week in the session, and it’s a disgrace; closed committees, laws passed that nobody reads.” Special interest power One way of cleaning up the government, Mr. Samuels insisted, would be to pass a reform law. comprehensive campaign “Special interests have an inordinate amount of power in this country, and they buy that power by the way parties and campaigns are financed,” the Democratic candidate charged. He.said he favored some mixture of public and private financing of political campaigns, and strict limits on what any one individual could contribute. “I would insist on total disclosure for all political candidates,” he said, noting that he paid $45,000 in his own tax returns had been made public. taxes last year The corrupt system of campaign financing, he declared, has meant that “the American — — people don’t own their government any more.” Mr. Samuels predicted that “total disclosure for all candidates will mean that many will go to jail.” The president of New York City’s Mr. Corporation, Off-Track Betting Samuels told a questioner who sought his favorite in the upcoming Kentucky Derby: “I was successful at OTB because 1 know nothing about horses.” In a more serious vein, Mr. Samuels said he had just visited Attica prison and was disgusted with the services for prisoners he found there. “Our present jails are schools for criminals, and we pay the tuition,” he asserted. Discussing Mr. Rockefeller’s failure to appear at the 1971 Attica rebellion, he said: “With 50 of my employees hostage, 1 would have been there. Blasting the state’s criminal justice Mr. Samuels said that he was “committed to prison reform” and that education and job trailing programs were vital to reduce the rate of prisoner system, recidivism. , Campaign theme: more jobs However, he demuerred oil the question of whether he supported the State University college for prisoners at Bedford Hills just slashed from the budget by the State Legislature. He later admitted in an interview that while he favors a broad range of rehabilitative services for prisoners, to publicly support a college for prisoners would bring political criticism that he “wants to send prisoners to college” and >T would be painted by the right as a permissive liberal.” He did tell the Haas Lounge crowd, that he had successfully however, employed former prisoners, heroin addicts, disadvantaged other paraplegics and persons in his Off-Track Betting office. “You can’t solve human problems, welfare or problems of prisoner problems, recidivism without employment,” Mr. Samuels asserted, stressing a theme of his campaign: more jobs. “Rockefeller and Wilson have lost 600,000 manufacturing jobs in New York. The answer to social problems lies in employment,” he said, admitting that while “I don’t have all the answers, I know what I have to begin to do if I am elected Governor.” „ on abortion, Mr. Samuels replied: “1 give the woman the right to make the decision as to whether or not she has a child.” In addition to cheap access to abortions, he would like to see “supportive services for those who want to keep their children.” “As Governor, 1 will ask my party to get rid of the disastrous economic policies of Richard Nixon,” he said, nothing the annual 15% rate of inflation “which no one would have believed possible.” He also noted that “people are moving out of the cities as fast as they can,” asserting; “You can’t save the cities unless we keep the middle class there, and the middle class, black and white, is moving out.” He pledged to try to bring more industry back into New York State to create more jobs, which in turn, would keep more people in New York’s cities. Another factor contributing to the exodus from the cities, Mr. Samuels PROF subway He the cited need for planning: “Malcolm Wilson’s is to keep New York City’s fare at until $.35 after the Decriminalize marijuana Mr. Samuels noted the need for increased student financial aid, although he was uncertain if he could afford much more than “low-interest loans” for students. When asked if he would try to hold State University tuition stable, he dodged the question by charging that student tuition is paying for the Albany mall of Nelson Rockefeller, who he termed “an amoral politician.” In addition to reforming the State Legislature, which Mr. Samuels predicted would be controlled by the Democrats if he was the Gobernatorial candidate, Mr. Samuels criticized the seniority system in Congress: “We have to end the three S’s in Congress: Seniority, secrecy and senility,” he said. Questioned about New York’s tough drug law enacted by former Governor Rockefeller, Mr. Samuels said; “The day that drug law came out, 1 attacked it as a if he is elected Governor. If national health insurance is not enacted by the time he took office, Mr. Samuels said he would push for a state health insurance program: “Health care is a a privilege. All civilized nations health insurance, and we have an right, not have expensive bureaucracy.” In all areas, Mr. pledged to use his managerial experience to make the state bureaucracy “more responsive to people.” Samuels Mr. Samuels later admitted that in the campaign, he had to avoid “the top three emotional issues: busing, quotas and scatter-site housing.” Although not overly enthusiastic, the large Haas Lounge crowd seemed more pleased by his liberal stances than by the conservatives views advanced by Senator James Buckley last week. a great deal of insight ... ... -PROF.

Until five or six years ago, “the bulk of the (hospital] traffic was one-way,” he explained. Mr. Fabinsky described the old function of the mental hospital as a “human warehouse or refuse heap.” Both Mr. Fabinsky and Ms. Christianson reported that most of the patients have been in the hospital for IS years or more.

It is reinforced by “rewards and punishments.” In other words, behavior either obtains or avoids something the patient wants or wants to avoid. Behavior modification gives the patient the reward he desires for a different reason, observed Ms. Christianson.

A final decision by the Trustees will probably not be rendered until the completion of a study to be made by the SUNY Provost, according to Tom Craine, assistant to President Robert Ketter. Dr. Craine pointed out that he could only relate his impression of the recent Board of Trustees meeting. “What we have been doing in the past [in health care] has been all right we can continue in the way we have been,” Dr. Craine observed. Essentially, he said, the interpretation by the SUNY legal counsel as to whether student fees could be used for health services “was positive, and the issue, in my interpretation, is resolved.” Health Care services including Sub-Board’s Birth Control Clinic, pregnancy counseling center and clinical has been operating on an income-generating laboratory “revolving account” (which technically does not utilize mandatory student fees). The revolving account was set up at University President Robert Ketter’s suggestion as a temporary measure. — - — — Legal limbo Dr. Ketter has not yet offered a ruling on whether student fees can be used for health services. He is admittedly' hesitant about making a decision before the Trustees arrive at a definitive legal ruling. However, Dr. Ketter has repeatedly insisted that he favors student-funded health services on campus. “Dr. Ketter has gone to bat for us, and we appreciate it,” said Health Care Division director A1 Campagna. A memo from the SUNY legal counsel in Albany raised such serious questions about using mandatory student fees for health care that Dr. Ketter decided he could not safely allow the fees to continue to be used for health services. Although the memo said continuing to use student fees for health care “was not beyond the pale of presidential discretion,” it raised the possibliity of lawsuits which Dr. Ketter does not want to risk without firm legal support from Albany. He is thus seeking to persuade the Board of Trustees to amend the fee guidelines to include health care, but the study reportedly ordered by the Trustees Wednesday will delay any final Trustees ruling. Meanwhile, campus health care will continue in a state of legal limbo. The feasibility of using a revolving account over an extended period is being questioned, however. “The revolving account has been dubbed the “dissolving account,” Mr. Campagna noted. “The Birth Control Clinic cannot support itself without a price rise. Health care is reluctant to do this in some areas where the fee schedule would be out of alignment with the students’ ability to pay,” he said. Under the present system. Health Care must be sure that expenditures do not outstrip income, Mr. Campagna explained, adding that the situation meant there is no chance for expansion. If the revolving account becomes unworkable, health care “may have to look for other means of funding, through voluntary fees, or another organization or administrative arm which is willing to assume responsibility,” Mr. Campagna asserted. “It’s a matter tfith regard to student organizations as a whole; let’s face it, mandatory student activity fees are not the most stable way “to finance student activities, maintained SUNY Vice-Chancellor for Student Affairs Russ Gugino. Ketter’s decision Mr. Gugino saw the question as being: “Is health care something that should be paid by individuals if it only benefits a certain number of different individuals? For Dr. Ketter, is health care essential to the University mission?” There are ten SUNY Trustees’ guidelines concerning mandatory student fees. While the guidelines are open to interpretation by each campus president, an eleventh category would have to be added to specifically provide for the funding of student health services. 'The SUNY Trustees’ decision will likely be negative; it raises questions that don’t have to be raised,” declared Student Association of the State University (SASU) member Bob Rodriguez. “The Trustees are the worst possible people to make the decision; Dr. Ketter is afraid to make the decision on a local campus and is trying to get the SUNY Trustees to make it instead,” he continued. Mr. Rodriguez believed Dr. Ketter’s reluctance to decide on health care threatens existing health care programs on other campuses. “What he’s doing doesn’t seem very rational,” he said. Buffalo State College has a $90,000 health care program in operation, and Mr. Rodriguez felt sufficient pressure can be brought to bear in convincing Dr. Ketter to —Santos Al Campagna keep his decision local. Supporting Mr. Rodriguez’s contention, Mr. Campagna indicated that the general concensus of the Trustees was negative at this time. One of the Trustees, said Mr. Campagna, said “the real meat of the issue” had to do with birth control and ‘termination of pregnancy’ programs. them to consider “I urged the package comprehensively, and not to politicize it,” Mr. Campagna asserted. He stressed the need for a speedy decision on health services, and added that the issues should be considered “in the context of health care, whether that be physical or mental.” Health Care’s proposal to the Board of Trustees, delivered by Mr. Campagna at their Wednesday meeting in New York City, urges “that the current set of guidelines be amended to include the words “supplemental programs of medical services and health care.” It continues; “Such an amendment would eliminate the conflicts in SUNY counsel’s office and should allow us to continue to augment and improve the auxiliary medical services on SUNYAB campus.” •„», BOG applications Gotta ditch your apartment?

Scholastic Housing approaches cooperative living as alternative by Maigaret Eichd Spectrum Staff Writer ‘This is not just a place to live or a presumptuous ideal; it is a place of learning,” explained David Moskowitz, a resident of Scholastic Housing, Inc., Sub-Board I’s year-old living cooperative. Previously a boarding house for transients, the co-op was purchased by Sub-Board in August 1973 “as a means for providing an alternative living style for students,” explained Mark Sick, division director of Scholastic Housing. Modeled after the Inter-Cooperative Council (ICC) in Ann Arbor’s University of Michigan, the Crescent Avenue co-op originated “as part of a program whereby more student housing is provided in the face of the Buffalo housing shortage,” Mr. Sick said. In selecting a building for student housing, the corporation “really did not have any choice, because all the Administration was receptive to was purchasing a co-op,” he maintained. Not perfect Funded initially by student fees, the co-op was purchased for $16,000 and required $6,000 worth of repairs. The co-op now functions on an income-offset basis, and, according to Mr. Sick, requires no additional funds money from the student body. Because the co-op’s 22 spaces and waiting list are filled, “Scholastic Housing is not a mis-investment,” claimed Rich Hochman, Student Association (SA) vice-president for Sub-Board I. When the co-op first got off the ground in September, it encountered various difficulties. “The cooperative atmosphere was not working out,” Hochman said. “There were a lot of separate people with a lot of separate interests, so for awhile there were many ups and downs,” added Linda Schiller, a co-op resident. However, now “everyone knows what cooperation means; people are together, we’re friends,” she said. Limited structure “The people in the co-op are disinclined towards so there is only as much structure as is absolutely necessary,” Mr. Moskowitz emphasized. Co-op residents meet every Sunday to discuss problems or activities, and they have devised a cooking and cleaning system which is not sexist, Ms. Schiller said. structure, Although the cooperative atmosphere at the house has “improved incredibly,” cooperation between Sub-Board and the co-op residents has been more difficult to attain, according to Ms. Schiller. “Students on the Board have no Rape prevention car pool project proposed A move to institute a rape prevention car pool has been proposed to Sub-Board I, Inc. The founders of the proposal, Barbara Barrett and Libby Salberg, are confident that this program will lessen women’s fears of going out at night. The idea for a Women’s Transit Authority (WTA) came from a similar car pool which originated at the University of Michigan, Ms. Barrett explained. The staff will be made up entirely of volunteers, many of whom will drive a van along a regular route, seven nights a week from 8 !p.m. until 1 a.m. This service will be available to all women from the State University of Buffalo and Buffalo State College. In an effort to better organize their project, Ms. Barrett and Ms. Salberg will distribute a survey on the incidence of rape and attempted rape in the Buffalo area. All answers will be kept strictly confidential, and suggestions are welcomed. New Journalism’ explained. “If .we could turn out a good venture, change from the dull news operation lacking entertainment to one that had credibility, then the ratings didn’t matter.” He added; “The change is not as fast as I’d like to make it, but in the long run it will be the place for a news operation.” Non-thinking news Discussing the issue of the “segmentation” in the media, Mr. Rotman said: “Each of the three news stations had decided what group to appeal to. KB (WKBW, Channel 71 has maintained the lowest common denominator it doesn’t take any real thinking to - put together its program.” WGR, Channel 2, a “place of change,” said Mr. Rotman is “somewhere in between, telling less stories but telling them with a flair.” Mr. Rotman termed his own station’s change “evolutionary and not revolutionary.” As a more in-depth news show, it requires more time to watch. “WBEN appeals to thinking people and adults,” he explained. When something major happens and people want to find out about it in full, they can turn to WBEN.” A further reason for the decline in ratings has been because the number one station “appeals to a large percentage of people who want to be entertained.” This . . u ' V' . surmised. Do-it-yourself “We were under the impression that the house would be repaired and in livable condition when we moved in,” continued Ms. Schiller. “However, we had to do most of the repairs, like painting, by ourselves.” Some repairs such as the installation of the showers, took eight months. However, loose stairs and rotting bathroom floors have not been fixed. Delays in repairs are due, in part, to the limited budget with which Scholastic Housing works, Mr. Sick said. Scholastic Housing’s “short-term goal is to provide low-cost quality housing to students, and ultimately, by opening up more units, make housing competitive to lower rents in the area,” explained Mr. Sick. The corporation is also working on plans for married students’ housing. No precedent “Because the present State University of New York (SUNY) administration is afraid to set a precedent with student operated off-campus housing and frowns upon co-ed housing without supervision, the expansion of Scholastic Housing has been delayed, Mr. Sick said. “In light of what’s happening to university health care, Scholastic Housing may begin experiencing more delays due to the guidelines for spending mandatory fees,” he added. Three chosen Tentative results for SASU Elections for this University’s undergraduate representatives to the Student Association of the State University (SASU) may be challenged by one of the candidates. Edward Rosenfeld, who came in fourth in a nine-candidate field, complained to the director of Elections and Credentials that the voting machines were so set up that voters would pull the lever to the left of the candidate for whom they intended to vote. Janet Mrozowski, director of Elections and Credentials, said in reply: “If the men from the .[Buffalo] Board of Elections said it [the arrangement of the names] was all right, how can anyone contest it?” The normal procedure is to file a complaint with the Student Judiciary, which can rule that new elections must be held. Mr. Rosenfeld could not be reached so it is not known whether he will appeal. Pending any such action, the results are as follows: Barbara Ranagan, 111; Janice Carver, 155 (elected); Michele Smith, 206 (elected); Edward Rosenfeld, 144; William Atchley, 94; David Marion, 86; Andrew Walle, 98; John Sullivan, 102; Charles Goldberg, 173 (elected).

Mr. Campbell would like the station to offer more complete and coverage, but is in-depth restrained from doing so because of the station’s limited money.

This prohibition has apparently upset a number of customers, explained Mr. Bozek. The Rathskellar could lose its liquor license, however, if alcohol had not been withheld while the gambling continued. Rathskellar supervisors who have attempted to eliminate the gambling have been verbally harassed, Mr. Bozek said.

Minorities urged to assist in rejuvenating Buffalo slums by Linda Moskowitz Feature Editor Anyone who’s ever been to Buffalo’s East Side should be familiar with the overabundance of abandoned structures and fire-gutted shells which were once homes and stores, and now remain only as obstrusive eyesores in this community. The ever-increasing number of fires in the area contributes heavily to the problem. Calvin Fitter, the first black graduate of the undergraduate division of the University’s Environmental Design Department, suggests that the answer to this problem depends strongly upon an increase in “grass-root professionals,” whom he feels, “can come into a depressed area and have a positive effect on the urban community.” “But the fact is,” he continued, “there are very few trained people to do this work,” pointing out that there are only 400 black architests in the entire country. — Housing a critical area 217 Waverly Street, now under rehabilitation by BCDO. This house will be completed by eariy summer. It is being done as a model to show the community what can be done in the area under the rehabilitation process. “Housing, at this point, is a critical factor in the lives of ghetto people,” said Mr. Fitter, "it is the number ope problem.” Since the economic power in the minority communities is lacking to buy the services necessary for urban rehabilitation, he feels residents are dependent upon minority professionals from the community, who can lend their time and give advice to the people. In a word to minority college students, Mr. Fitter maintains “the skills you can bring back to the community are very essential. If a student with expertise leaves, there is no way the community will get built up.” Currently, there are a number of organizations which deal with the problems of urban planning and development. One example is the Community Planning Assistance Center (CPAC), located at 25 High Street, which is a non-profit, volunteer, advocacy group, offering free architectural and planning services to community organizations. Mr. Fitter, assigned to do his required internship or field work here, commented that CPAC “utilizes students to the maximum, as they must depend on a lot of volunteer expertise.” Fire adds to blight “I found the center to be very worthwhile for student, community input,” said Mr. Fitter, noting that he spent 20-25 hours per week working for CPAC. While CPAC is now conducting 15-20 projects, Mr. Fitter chose to work specifically with the Buffalo Development Community Organization (BCDO). This group is made up of about 30-35 concerned residents of the Cold Springs area, who asked CPAC for assistance. Cold Springs is a predominantly black, impoverished community on Buffalo’s East Side, bordered by Northland, Masten, Jefferson and Ferry Streets. The area is marred by abandoned buildings, vacant lots and the remains of fire-destroyed homes. Fire itself, is a major problem. Mr. Fitter contends much of this is due to the large number of wood-framed structures, which are fire hazards and of obsolete architectural design. “In the future,” he said, “Buffalo is going to have to use brick in its building.” Freeze on federal housing Another major cause of fire in this community is arson. “In interacting with the kids on the street,” said Mr. Fitter, “I found that the teenagers looking at these fire-ridden structures feel that the city officials are just going to ignore them, so they feel they might as well burn them up.” An increase in fire leads A deteriorated structure, which must seme down* It is a hazard to residents.

With the more prosperous community members leaving first, and displaced families following, the outlook for ghetto rehabilitation is bleak. Another factor 18-month hindering development is the moratorium placed on federal housing programs by the Nixon Administration. This moratorium, combined with a general recession and decreased spending by the public, have caused a slowdown in the constructioiindustry, and a lightened workload for architects and urban planners. Strategies planned The freeze on federal housing programs is due to end this summer. But the key items needed to halt the spreading blight in the nation’s ghettos are an increase in economic buying power and credit in these communities, which is needed to purchase the skills and services vital to rehabilitation, and larger numbers of minority professionals who are willing to rebuild these areas. BCDO and CPAC have worked out several strategies to facilitate new development in the Cold Springs area, according to Mr. Fitter. They are to rehabilitate as many abandoned houses as possible and bring them up to the standards of the code; to demolish all fire-hazard building structures, and clear the land for new construction on feasible sites; development of more recreational facilities; revitalization of the commercial strip, which runs through East Ferry Street and on sections of Jefferson Avenue; and construction of more off-street parking facilities. Hi-rise projects have failed “Hopefully, banks will reinvest in the area, once it is brought up to standard,’'said Mr. Fitter. CPAC has already approached the New York State Urban Development Corporation (UDC) “to begin ,to formalize preliminary plans for scitter-site housing, and more open space for recreation areas,” he explained. UDC is a state-funded organization which so far, has implemented over 20,000 units of housing in New York State. Although they are at a low point of development, according to Mr. Fitter,he believes UDC has been “one of the most successful organizations in the country for development of low to moderate-income housing.” The trend in low-income housing is now towards town-house, garden apartment-types of structures, as the high-rise projects have been labeled a failure in almost every instance. Mr. Fitter comments that these huge apartment buildings are “unsafe and hazardous,” adding that “even psychologically, it’s a scary thing just being 15 to 20 stories up in the air.” But he also noted that the low-rise plans are “not workable for every city,” citing New York City as an example where high population density leaves the architect little choice but to build upwards. City ordinance offers new plan The project which offers the most growth potential to blighted neighborhoods is the new Homestead Act, a city ordinance recently approved which would enable currently unused city land to be put back on the tax rolls. Mr. Fitter explained that the city of Buffalo owns about 45% of the land of Cold Springs, much of which is vacant and abandoned. The Homestead Act would allow the city to sell abandoned homes to families at extremely low cost. The family is then responsible to bring the structure up to building code standards in a certain amount of time, after which the family owns the property and pays city taxes for it. The city will try to arrange plans with certain banks to provide loans for these families. . �I - t slums i ned buildings. With ity members leaving llowing, the outlook eak.

CPAC is one such group, which Mr. Fitter explains “acts as a liaison between the local government officials and the community members.” He continued to say that all hard-core skills are needed, such as accounting and management, for these programs to work. ;uivest or ig” said “it got recently currently unused tax rolls.

If 1 can curb my rampant anxiety somewhat, it docs feel as if people going away is painful. Or at least 1 suspect that the reason for repressing any awareness about people leaving is because of what that could feel like if I weren’t careful. As if I were really able to do that with any kind of consistency at all. My problem is that while hiding what is going on from other people, especially in terms of feeling bad down, depressed, whatever your phrase happens to be is comparatively easy. It is my own awareness of feelings that I can’t get away from. Which brings on fantasies akin to all those old and new motion pictures featuring chase sequences in which people are running in one door and coming out another, while the pursuer comes out still a'third. Images of parts of my psyche running up and down corridors after other parts, while I am hiding in a broom closet. A nice dark broom closet that smells of the stuff you put on floors and damp mops and such. Clearly it is safer to spend the last week of April and the first half of May in such a place than out in the real World saying shudder goodbye to people. What really worries me is that this is not even the last column of the semester. Can you imagine what state 1 may be in by next week? Repression, where is thy sting?

His approval of the 1970 "internal security" plan's use of wiretapping and burglary, the use of those tactics against 1972 political opponents, and his withholding of evidence and dubious approach to the judge in the Ellsberg trial could be included in this article of impeachment. If impeachment were solely political, Mr. Nixon might still be able to extricate himself, but it is the legal process which is tightening the noose around him. He recognized this when he fired Archibald Cox and attempted to end the Special Prosecutor's office, but the weight of public opinion caused that desperate maneuver to fail. The best he has been able to do since is hire a good lawyer; political offensives from Operation Candor to his losing campaign in Michigan cannot stave off the enclosing legal process of grand juries, trials, and prosecutors collecting evidence. The missing and intentionally damaged tapes and attempts to withhold evidence are judicial crimes, panicky resistance to the legal course of impeachment. Mr. Nixon will announce this week what he and his lawyers have decided to give the House committee in response to its subpoena for 42 Watergate tapes: partial transcripts of those conversations, an offering which the committee has repeatedly declared would be unacceptable. His defense has become one of a man with a great deal to hide, and his noncompliance risks another impeachment charge for further obstruction of justice. The legal coils are tightening around the President, and he cannot alter the weight of the evidence evidence which, if it were favorable to Mr. Nixon, would not have had to be subpoenaed. An impeachment recommendation by the House inquiry is virtually certain by the end of June, and a full House facing re-election is not going to dispute either the inquiry's evidence or its advice to impeach. Two years after the Watergate break-in revealed the tip of the iceberg of Presidential abuse of power, Richard Nixon is going to be tried by the Senate as America attempts to purge a criminal tyrant from the Presidency. . Judiciary Committee's House President narrow its into inquiry decision to Nixon's misconduct in office represents a crucial turning point in the events leading up to impeachment. In the beginning, the committee had to construe its responsibilities as broadly as possible, uncertain where the various investigations might lead. But now, like a good prosecutor (for this is the committee's role), and with a more complete view of the evidence, the House inquiry is concentrating on those charges most likely to be proven against Mr. Nixon in a Senate trial. In order to do this, many of the otherwise-important charges of Presidential misconduct are being set aside. No article of impeachment will therefore concern Mr. of Nixon's impoundment funds of Congressionally-appropriated dismantling of the Office of Economic Opportunity, even though these tactics would make it difficult to justify them as impeachable. There will probably be no charges involving the President in trading Government favors for illegal campaign contributions, simply because Mr. Nixon's personal involvement would be difficult to prove. Charges that illegal contributions were a for favorable' antitrust exchanged for and the raising of milk ITT settlement support prices for the dairy industry are still being pursued, however. The decision to include Mr. Nixon's illegal secret bombing of Cambodia is still pending a Congressional report, focusing on whether or not key members of Congress were informed of this aerial destruction in Asia while the President lied to America on television. The shocking disclosure that Mr. Nixon paid only minimal income taxes and became and a millionaire while in the Presidency now owes $432,000 in unpaid income taxes will be an impeachable offense if evidence of intentional taxpayer fraud can be proven. Considering that the man who appraised Mr. Nixon's Vice-Presidential papers now admits he did so after the deadline for such and that the President has deductions self-servingly announced that any blame for the tax his taxes ties with his accountants evasion charge which toppled Spiro Agnew from office may finish Mr. Nixon as well. But the inquiry will fiercely concentrate on the allegations that Mr. Nixon knew of The ' . . Impeachment: legally inevitable - vacant . - * . backwards toward a medieval concept of criminal justice. Although decades of study and statistics have shown that capital punishment provides absolutely no deterrent to crime, the State Assembly has approved a limited death penalty bill for the murder of peace or prison officers or by an inmate. The bill's constitutionality is doubtful; and what murderer would not plead the defense of "extreme emotional disturbance" allowed by the bill? We hope the State Senate will take a more rational view than the warped concept that an official murder is the only response to even such heinous murders as those resisting the political covered by the bill temptation to appear "tough" on crime by passing it. Unfortunately, this same political motivation has led the State Legislature to slash from its budget the State University college for prisoners at Bedford Hills. While over $250 million is being spent on unneeded highways, this small $500,000 investment in rehabilitation was vetoed because the lawmakers don't want to "coddle criminals." Incarceration increases the bitterness toward society of those confined, who as ex-convicts have great difficulty finding even unskilled jobs when they are released. The inability to find a self-supporting job is the biggest single temptation to a return to crime, and ultimately to jail. To break this vicious cycle, selected prisoners could have earned two-year degrees at this SUNY prison/college and had a chance to become self-supporting in a competitive society. Since the state spends $10,000 a year simply to confine each prisoner, it would not take many successes to justify the program's small cost. The argument that prisoners that an education get shouldn't workingmen's children can't afford raises a separate issue; financial aid and low tuition (like City University's zero charge) are needed to make college accessible to both the working-class and the poor. But trying to train inmates so they can find employment instead of returning to prison is not being "soft" on criminals, but a sensible investment in rehabilitation. We strongly urge improving the oppressive prison conditions that produced Attica by funding the SUNY prison/college. I wish the weather would break once and for all. In large part, this feels like autumn. And I don’t need that at all. Cold, gloomy weather is not a good time to be winding down a school year; it is' not good weather for people to be getting ready to go away. Things are winding down, you may already be into the last-minute frenzy of trying to catch up to all the crap that hasn’t been done so far, all , the overdue papers, all the unread pages. Which, obviously, leaves no time for all the people that things were never finished with. I mean you have all that work to do, how can you find time to sit and talk to people? How is there space in such a hectic schedule to find room for saying things that have not been said by this time? Clearly it makes more sense to not bother, to just skip it. What sense does it make to reach out now, when nothing can come ot if? Only a limited amount can come from it. No argument about that. As long as both people don’t want anything to come from it, of course. Because it does seem that stubborn people can frequently find a way, some way, to keep some kind of contact with each other. Of course there is the risk that you might want to try that, and that other idiot won’t have the good taste to reciprocate. Which which might be the reason why could feel sort of like rejection you never reached out in the first place, right? Think on it. Don’t really understand why or how gloomy weather gets hooked into this. Why should it feel better if somebody walks away into bright sunshine than into a rainstorm?

For the past year we have been bombarded with revelations of official, and at times unofficial, machinations that by comparison would elevate Warren Harding and Ulysses S. Grant to position of pristine purity. However, under this mountain of information it is hard to keep an historical perspective; a perspective that would enable us to place these scandals in their proper place. In order to evaluate the current talk pertaining to impeachment, it is necessary to understand the role and intrinsic value that impeachment has in the American Constitution. In the Constitution, it is stated that a President could be impeached for “high crimes and misdemeanors;” however, our founding fathers left the door open when it came to a specific definition of that ambiguous phrase. Thus the constitutional framers, possibly - realizing the impossibility of creating a rigid definition that would stand the test of time, created the situation in which partisan politicos must first define the crime and then try the President. Of course this situation would create an atmosphere in which partisan political gain and political expediency could be a determinant of what legally constitutes impeachment. SA bums out again To the Editor. Is S.A. satisfying your academic, political, social or economic needs and interests? U.B. needs a changing and growing collective system to focus on meeting these needs and not a bureaucratic government that tries to look legitimate. the past three years, S.A.’s greatest In was to allocate student responsibility fees (irregardless of student priorities). A simple computer program and questionnaire can give a relative scaling of students’ importance and satisfaction. A simple linear program could then allocate the money. If that is why people consider S.A. necessary, it can be replaced by $10 worth of canned computer programs. But who is gcing ;o t.C e *he political stands on censorship, fee hikes, tenure disputes, political manipulation of the university and the community? Who is going to demand educational changes for more individualized interest centered and relevant programs? remove a President. present dilemma, our current President has been moving slowly toward an open confrontation with the other two branches of our government. Originally, the scandal broke when some bungling burglars were caught attempting to break into Democratic National Headquarters and two intrepid reporters from the Washington Post penetrated the Administration smokescreen which labelel it “a third-rate burglary.” From this In our harly auspicious beginning, the stench of decay permeated America as more tales of misdeeds were uncovered and allowed to waft in the balmy Virginia air. No stone was left unturned as bombshell followed bombshell: campaign contributions in violation of the law, dirty tricks, unlawful use of federal agencies (especially the FBI), income tax discrepancies, conflicting reports on personal home improvements, illegal bombing of Cambodia to name only a few. What began as a filler story for most of the news media turned into the key to Pandora’s box. However, rumor and insinuation are not enough to convict any man or woman, even if passionate hatred is the only emotion that one could feel for the accused. What is needed is - Who is going to fight for economic and social needs, such as health and day care, tuition and other costs, and the everyday struggles that all humans institution? ISN’T INTERCOLLEGIATE must go through in this SURELY IT SPORTS OR S.A.! This partisan political atmosphere resulted in the impeachment of President Andrew Johnson over the question of presidential powers relating to cabinet appointments and removals. Historians have praised the courage of the senators that voted against conviction, and John Kennedy included the tale of the senator that cast the deciding vote in his best-seller, Profiles in Courage. The result of this 1868 incident has been an adverse aura around impeachment, and an historical legacy that cautioned against undue usage of a necessary, but explosive legal means to facts: facts that could clear the President of any wrongdoing or result in his removal. Yet, like Catch 22, that has been the most frightening and frustrating part of the scandals, and one which illuminates a fatal weakness in our American system of government. The Congress and the courts, supposedly equal partners in our federal system, have been unable to determine guilt or innocence because the alleged defendant claims the power to withhold the evidence. If this situation occurred in our local courts, the claims of the suspected person would be seen as a mere stalling attempt an attempt to withhold evidence that could convict the defendant. Originally, the Watergate hearings revolved around the testimony of John Dean and his claim that the President knew about the so-called dirty tricks, and aided in the attempted coverup. From this tiny germ, however, an entire new series of allegations has arisen which can only be — substantiated by evidence. Whether Mr. Nixon was originally guilty of the coverup and planning of the dirty tricks is really a secondary question the primary question is the power of Congress and the courts to execute the will of the founding fathers in relation to impeachment. The — stalling, evasions, propaganda counterattacks, “missing tapes,” and refusal to bow to the rule of law is really the issue. If the President withholds evidence needed in an impeachment hearing, it is quite possible that if impeachment is executed and a conviction results, a spate of propaganda will results which will contend that the President on insufficient evidence. Unlike parliamentary democracies, which are quite responsive to electoral vissitudes, and change leaders in response to voter whims, the American government is based upon the concept of a stable four-year Presidency. The only alternative created by the Constitution to a four-year term, other than death or illness, is the device of impeachment. It is not a device of repression or approbation, it is the only way to try a President in order to determine his guilt or innocence of “high crimes and misdemeanors.” Impeachment is only a call for a trial by the Senate, which, acting as a judicial body can determine guilt or innocence. Because the President is immune from courts that normally handle the judicial processes, the only way to determine the truth is to have a motion of impeachment which will lead to the President’s trial. To all those that call for resignation that is only a cop-out. If Mr. Nixon resigns, he and his defenders could always plead innocence and claim that he was the victim of a smear campaign, and that his resignation was an act of sacrifice in order to erase divisions in American society. It is a cop-out, despite Senator James Buckley’s call for Mr. Nixon to step down, because resignation would remove the Republican party from the horns of a dilemma. Let us utilize and honor the give the President his day in Constitution court. Yet let nothing be withheld; for the honor and traditions of America are at stake. Every man is innocent until proven guilty let the evidence for no man should be above the speak for itself law. was convicted — — - - I would recommend that S.A. take the initiative it finally meets the needs and interests of the students, even if it means replacing itself entirely! to change until Rick Landman Cant have your cake To the Editor As I have been following the SA budget hearing duri the last few days, i learned that Larry Williams and the minority students organizations have demanded that they receive every dollar back that they contributed through their mandatory student fees.

The students of the Student Legal Aid Clinic feel strongly that the Student Association should take another serious look at its priorities under the present proposed budget. The Clinic is in a desperate situation and deserves to be heard. The Clinic presently employs five law students and two secretaries. Under the new budget, we could not afford to hire such necessary personnel. Because of the complicated and extensive nature of our work, it is essential that these-people continue to be part of the Clinic. Our publication line, which has University with the such valuable provided publications as “The Buffalo Housing Handbook” and “The Drug Law Fact Sheet,” has been drastically cut. Our legal retainers have been severely limited. This will impose serious limitations on the services presently provided by lawyers on retainer with the Clinic. Unlike some other organizations on campus, the Student Legal Aid Clinic effectively serves the entire University Community. The past year’s case load was over 3,500 (more than 60 cases per week). If the Clinic keeps expanding at its present rate, this coming year’s case load will exceed 4,000. The cases the Clinic handles daily include the following: landlord/tenant, drug arrests, shoplifting, insurance, vehicle and traffic problems, and referral services. We operate a bail fund and provide free consultation with an attorney.

Student Judiciary responds To the Editor. The editorial of 4/26/74 stated that the 4/24/74 Student Assembly meeting “was cancelled by a restraining order demanding a full audit of past SA funding.” That order, handed down by the Student-Wide Judiciary (SWJ), demanded nothing of the kind. The order “[restrained] the Student Assembly from passing, voting upon, or in any way finalizing the SA budget for 1974-5 . . .” There was no demand to audit or produce audits of past SA funding. A restraining order is issued upon the Court’s belief that “irreparable harm” might ensue. An injunction is issued upon the Court’s belief that “irreparable harm” will ensue. The difference is in the degree of certainty. A restraining order provides at once an to “cool off” and to prove the inevitability of harm. It does not demand any specific action; it is simply an order to all parties of a controversy to keep any matters in question in the status quo. An injunction is usually of longer duration and sometimes instructive. In any case, opportunity injunctive relief does not resolve questions of constitutionality, legality, ethics, etc.) It is corrective in nature; a restoration of equity. It is not punitive or in any way indicative of serious wrongdoing. We place no blame for the error in The Spectrum. In fact, the error may be minor and inconsequential.

Page thirteen �Sudden death Daseoau by Dave Gcringer Last week’s Student Assembly budget meetings revealed yet another amazing revelation. Several speakers at the meetings announced their discovery that intercollegiate sports is “elitist.” Surely, such a discovery will rank these people with Christopher Columbus, or at the very least, Leif Erickson. The fact that intercollegiate sports, according to these distinguished gentlemen, only involves 350 students, makes them “elitist” in nature. However, a check of attendance figures reveals another startling discovery. In addition to the 350 “elitists” playing intercollegiate sports, there were several'thousand more “elitists” who took advantage of the athletic program. The hockey Bulls, playing at home 12 times during the 1973-74 season, drew 1'8,911 people, an increase of 1158 in total attendance. The records showed that 14,648 of the 18,911 were students undoubtedly “elitists,” since they supported a program which involved only 350 students. Surely these students cannot be considered “involved,” since they probably live at Holiday Twin Rinks, and pay absolutely no attention to the game. The fact that they were there on nights when the hockey team played various varsity opponents was surely just a coincidence. The basketball Bulls had a poor season this year (5-20), and a sharp decrease in attendance (which slumped to 2725 for the Clark Hall contests) was the result. However, the basketball squad drew 13,644 during their last winning season, 1972-73. Of this number, 10,248 were students obviously “elitists.” Once again, the fact that they were present at Clark Hall at the same time that the basketball Bulls were playing may be attributed to coincidence. Perhaps they all thought that their intramural teams were playing that night, and decided to stay after they were informed of their mistake. After all, would 10,248 students support “elitism?” Certainly not. It is time to recognize these arguments about “elitism” for what they really are nonsense. It is also time to recognize the valuable service that these distinguished speakers are providing to the student body. They have undeniably showed the ease with which people may be led astray, believing ideas that border on the incredible. If intercollegiate sports are termed “elitist,” what will be next? Should Community Action Corps programs, which involve small numbers of students, be dropped as “elitist?” Should student organizations which do not possess enrollments of 1000 or more be denied funding? This would be as ludicrous as dropping intercollegiate sports because they are “elitist.” Perhaps the intramural program involving 4000 students, and ultimately all programs involving less than 10,000 students, would be termed “elitist” and be terminated. This school could then proudly take its place among the other high schools of the nation. - — — Tennis Raiders blank Bulls on basketball floor by Paige Miller Staff Writer Spectrum HAMILTON, N Y. After the matches against Buffalo State and Canisius were rained out, the tennis Bulls traveled to Colgate to open their season a week behind schedule. The Colgate match was played indoors on a basketball floor, a surface which is much faster than outdoor courts. Unfortunately for Buffalo, there wasn’t a cloud in the ceiling and the Red Raiders triumphed 9-0. - games but had trouble winning them. Parelli told Murphy, “You were probably saying to yourself, ‘Well, I won this game,’ instead of concentrating on winning the next point.” Murphy concurred. Bulls Captain Rich Abbott won the only set for Buffalo all day, downing Jeff Grossman 7-6 after losing the first set 6-1. “I was glad to see Rich come back like that,” said Baschnagel. Abbott had difficulties in the third set, which included twice tripping over the net, and succumbed 6-1. Randy Murphy had perhaps Buffalo’s best performance, losing 7-5, 6-3. Murphy built up leads in many Lack of agreement The Bulls disagreed on the effect of the wood floor. Murphy thought he would have done worse outdoors while Abbott remarked, “What a home poUrt advantage they had!” Baschnagel added: “If I had known we’d be playing on wood, I would have scheduled some practices on wood [in Clark Hall].” All of the Bulls complained that the boundary lines were too thin and could not be seen on the other side of the net. Consequently, the players could not see where to place their shots and had trouble determining if their shots were in or not. Colgate also had the advantage of playing all winter (they are 11-3), including a southern trip. Buffalo, in contrast, has had only a handful of outdoor practices since last fall. (Indoor practices have been used for conditioning, not actualy playing.) The Bulls will host St. John Fisher this afternoon, weather permitting, on the Rotary tennis courts. Page fourteen The Spectrum Monday, 29 April 1974 First singles player Paul Parelli could not cope with Colgate’s Rich Finn, the top ranked player in the East. Finn, a freshman, came to the net often and was in complete control of the match. “You must come to the net on a surface like this,” noted Buffalo coach Norm Baschnagel. “You can’t stay back and volley.” . ajc* ■ nu/wsqc s*u i Bulls head toward playoffs with three wins over West Va. the opening contest, but the Mountaineers closed the gap to 4—3 with two out and then tied the game in the sixth against reliever Jim Niewczyk. The Bulls won the game in the bottom of the seventh (and final) inning, tallying on a walk, stolen base, sacrifice and suicide squeeze bunt by catcher Gary Cox. “It’s the Only way to play it,” commented Bull coach Bill Monkarsh about Buffalo’s bunting game. “Why put the pressure on them (hitters) when you just have to get it (the ball) down. It really wasn’t so much of a suicide squeeze, because the runner (shortstop Jim Laiayanis) wasn’t running until the ball had almost left the pitcher’s hand. The pitcher can’t knock the, batter down,” Monkarsh continued. Right fielder Rick Wolstenholme became the third Bull to hit two home runs in a game when he unloaded twice on Friday against West Virginia’s ace lefthander, Dan Dolphin. Dolphin was also touched for three doubles in Friday’s game, and then retired to the greener pastures of a part-time first base position for the remainder of the series. The Bulls will continue their home stand this week, hosting Geneseo tomorrow in a single game and Brockport Thursday in a doubleheader. Buffalo 30 batters. will then face Canishis and Ithaca on the road before returning home for a crucial doubleheader against Bulls lose lead Buffalo took a 4—1 lead into the fifth inning of District II defending champion Penn State May 8. The baseball Bulls continued what may be a march to the NCAA playoffs with a three-game sweep of perennial contender West Virginia at Peelle this weekend. Buffalo blanked the Field Mountaineers Friday, 6-0, and won Saturday’s doubleheader, 5-4 and 3-1 respectively. Righthanders Bill Lasky and Jim Riedel hurled strong efforts in the third and first games of the series, respectively, to pace the trio of Bull victories. Riedel fashioned a two-hit shutout, fanning thirteen hitters in Friday’s victory, while Lasky pitched his second successive complete game, neither of which has seen the righthander allow an earned run. “I had a slider today,” said Lasky. “I'guess I got a little confidence back since the first game (an ineffective sting at Fairfield). I like pitching on the home diamond, it’s got a good.mound and it’s a good field,” Lasky (now 3—0 this season) added. Riedel brought his record to 3—3 with Friday’s triumph. The sophomore righthander has won all three of his starts since the Bulls returned from their southern trip. Riedel has allowed just six hits and one run in 23 innings of northern action, striking out Two selected to Chartering Committee The Collegiate Assembly has approved the last two faculty members of the College Chartering Committee. They are Anne Haskell and Anne Payne, both associate professors of English. The other four are Harry Cullinan, professor of History; Larry Green, professor of Orthodontics; Curtis Mettlin, assistant professor of Sociology; and Associate Librarian Yoram Szekely. All six were also approved by the Faculty-Senate executive committee. �Phon« Rent 831-2496. dryer. Call cheap.

WNYPIRG director Paul Mooes stressing the need for an audit and urging the Assembly to slash the intercollegiate athletic budget, as Black Student Union president Larry Williams, right, looks on. Demand for audit delays 3rd SA budget try; debate follows by Amy Dun kin Campus Editor The Student Assembly budget hearings were recessed for the third consecutive day Wednesday when the Student Judiciary (SJ) issued a five-day temporary restraining order to prevent the Assembly from voting on budgets. The order to-delay the voting until the Student Association (SA) published an audit of its past spending was requested by Assemblyperson Gary Schwartz, also a member of WNYP1RG. Mr. Schwartz asked for the restraining order because he wanted to find out how the money was spent. “We don’t want the structure of these budgets to allow for abuses again,” he said. Before the Assembly can resume its normal proceedings, the Student Judiciary will meet Sunday with members of the SA Executive Committee to determine whether the audit is necessary prior to passing the budget, according to Justice Larry Katz. However, SA Treasurer Sal Napoli is “confident” he can prove that “this year’s audit has nothing to do with next year’s funding.” • formal dismissal of the Assembly, several minority students seized the microphone in Haas Lounge and invited the large crowd to voice its feelings. Third World Vet Hugh Bassette justified the disruptions of this week’s Assembly proceedings, asserting that since “we went through the formalized channels [of trying to join the Assembly] and were closed out, we had no choice but to stay outside the rules and regulations and take over the meetings.” Regardless of race Maintaining that by recessing the meetings, the Assembly was not allowing ijew members black, Puerto Rican or white to “participate in government,” Mr. Bassette stressed that it was not a race issue, but a fight for students to become part of the Assembly. Meanwhile, Black Student Union (BSU) President tarry Williams reiterated the demand for SA to turn over all minority student fees to a Third World coalition. He said minority students would, in turn, pay “their fair share” for any activities and services they use (such as CAC and health care). “SA decided to throw our funds on the Audit underway ground and let the wrestling team Presently, the firm of Haskins sweat them off,” Mr. Williams and Sells is conducting an audit of declared.

There is a constitutional amendment to give the Assembly more power in the Finance Committee. I have spoken to Admissions and Records about getting a form in the registration packet where students can check off their budgetary priorities,” Mr. Napoli said. He added that “this would their talents.” Mr. Napoli later termed the BSU argument “separatist” and revealed that he is “against the move to give BSU” control of all the minority student fees. He was also extremely dismayed that the present SA administration, which has been in office only one make the Assembly and student populace aware of where their priorities are.” “The elitist intercollegiate athletics are sucking off $180,000 Mr. Williams charged. When asked what BSU would do for blade students who “don’t have the same opinioils as you do,” Mr. Williams said: “Well give them back their $67.” Many speakers critidzed the relatively small ($18,000) allocation for health care, and many minority ” —continued on page 2 — President evaluated Ketter draws mixed reviews by Jeffrey S. Linder Contributing Editor Robert Ketter is being evaluated for reappointment as University President as he nears the end of his five-year term of office. Inside and outside the University community, opinions on the job he has done since 1970 range widely from enthusiastic praise to intense criticism. State University of New York (SUNY) Chancellor Ernest Boyer has asked Faculty-Senate Chairman Gilbert Moore, former Student Association (SA) President Jon Dandes, Executive vice-president Albert Somit and UB Council chairman William C. Baird to be members of the Presidential review committee. Chaired by Dr. Moore, the committee hopes to submit its confidential report to Chancellor Boyer by May 15. The first such evaluation of a University president in the country, it will include a documented committee report, as well as an original by each committee report member representing the opinions of Jiis constituents. Faculty opinion sought Dr. Moore has been meeting with groups of faculty members to sample faculty opinion on Dr. Ketter. “There aren’t as many —continued on page 3— Clockwise, from top left: President .xecutive vice-president Albert Somit; Academic Affairs vice-president Bernard Gelbeum;and History professor William Allen. �dp Ketter evaluated written responses as 1 had hoped,” he said. Perhaps one of the reasons for the lack of written responses is that there is widespread discontent over the evaluation committee. Students and faculty believe that all four committee members are actively pro-Ketter. Many feel that such a youp cannot make an objective appraisal: One department chairman noted that the inclusion of Dr. Somit on the committee is “obscene and immoral." In order to get a fair sampling of sentiments on Dr. Ketter’s reappointment, ■ The Spectrum interviewed many people ftom the University community as well as the surrounding Buffalo area, Because of the sensitivity of the subject, most were not willing to have their names attributed to their comments. Others felt that “self-censorship is censorship in the worst way.” Some interesting patterns developed in the interviews. Most people from the community were not as critical of Dr. Ketter as those on the University campus, improve the community if he can improve the University, because “the quality of life on campus is the quality of life in the community. I have reason to be optimistic,” he concluded, Reappointment favored Other community leaders did not contribute as much useful criticism as Mr. Price. Erie County Executive Edward Regan said he favored reappointment: “I've had a good relationship with Dr. Ketter and I think that our relationship goes in a positive direction.” Joseph Crangle, state chairman of the Democratic Party, offered similar opinions to those of Mr. Regan: “Dr. Ketter has created a favorable atmosphere for students to get involved in political activities,” he said, implying that he favored reappointment, State Senator James MacFarland said that he sent a letter to Dr. Ketter expressing his wish that he be reappointed. State Assemblyman Chester Hardt also favors reappointment because Dr. Ketter is “a competent administrator and a credit to the This could be evidence that Dr. Ketter has had greater success in dealing with community leaders community.” and legislators than with faculty An official statement was and students. issued by Mayor Stanley Makowski’s office: “My contact with Dr. Ketter has been friendly Appointments criticized A few main critical points were and informative.

Sate philosophy, while another said that he does possess an academic philosophy; one that is "warped.” President Ketter, said Dr. Allen, "must find the Middle ground in running UB, between a nuts-and-bolts approach and running the University in a visionary style.” Martin Mcyerson. a noted academic innovator and Dr. Kettcr’s predecessor from 1967 to 1969, ran the University in a more visionary style, it is generally agreed. Inability to direct There were many comments, concerning Dr. Ketter’s inability to provide this University with a solid direction. One Hayes Hall administrator said that Dr. Ketter’s administration has not been “innovative enough.” This administrator continued; “Dr. Ketter is a pragmatist, not overly ideal. I would like to get a few more idealists rather than implemented in there.” Some accuse Dr. Ketter of running the University as a “corporation,” saying that the Administration is “too utilitarian, driven to a marketing concept rather than treating faculty and staff as humans.” Dr. Allen commented: ‘There has been an increase in quite overcentralization. He hasn’t captured the spirit of the University.” One department chairman was worried that Dr. Ketter is pushing the University too heavily toward Second Class postage paid at Buffalo, New York.

Some students agreed that pr. Ketter is used to giving Tip service.*’ sciences Many members of the University community favor reappointment with reservations. Most feel that although there are deficiencies, the University should not have to search, for another President. "At this point it is difficult to find a good president... it is a job of many demands and ttw rewards the job is difficult if’not impossible,” commented 6ne department chairman. “The main grounds of support, fqr me,” the department chairman continued, “is Bob Ketter’s work .up in Amherst.” Another department .chairman said that Dr. Ketter “acts with poise .and appears candid, educable and open-minded.” Colleges Dean Irving Spitzberg commented: “Although I’ve been here for only two months, in regard to the ,Colleges, and its problems, Dr. Ketter lias given strong support." The Hayes Hall administrator noted that Dr. Ketter “does relatively Well, considering his situation; He must keep legislators happy as well as the faculty and students.” It is, indeed, an almost impossible job. Many are simply resigned to Dr. Ketter’s reappointment. “We might as well reappoint him,” said Harold Segal, professor of Biology. “There’s too little to be gained by getting up a search committee and too much to lost by not reappointing Dr. Ketter.” The director of a major special interest group on, campus agreed that the “probability of getting somebody worse is so much greater than getting somebody better.” ... “nemesis. “It is difficult to fire a man Dr. Gelbaum because of the [the nature of the beast University)explained a Hayes Hall administrator. “The Administration must reorganize and hope that Dr. Gelbaum gets the message.” like Added criticism Executive vice-president Albert Somit did not escape criticism either. A faculty member said that Dr. Somit is “fundamentally not a hell of a lot different than Dr. system.” deal A good of the praise Dr. Gelbaum.” He said that Drs.

But . interests of the Ketter not be 've-year term. years ago. the University and Buffalo community were at war, he brought peace. Today relations between the members of the University and the citizens of the Niagara Frontier are the best they have been since UB became a Statq University. Dr. Ketter’s efforts got construction of the Amherst Campus moving, despite widespread budgetary cutbacks and labor disputes. He has provided the University with sound management at a time when resources especially money are scarce. Despite community pressure, our Campus Security force is still unarmed. And Dr. Kettcr has recently attempted to step up the University’s Affirmative Action program for the hiring of black faculty and staff. — . - - Concern for students Various examples can be cited as testimony to Dr. Ketter’s concern. for students. For instance, when vice-president for Academic Affairs Pernard Gelbaum attempted to cancel 16 College courses this semester after the term had begun, Dr. Ketter took immediate action which resulted in the reinstatement of the disputed courses. When the Faculty-Senate hastily passed a “plus-minus” grading system, Dr. Ketter vetoed the Senate resolution, partly because of the negative effect it would have had on students. And when student-funded health services were placed in limbo this semester because the legality of using mandatory student fees for health care was questioned. Dr. Ketter allowed Sub-Board to set up a revolving account to temporarily continue services; went out on a limb by signing a voucher for back bills and malpractice insurance; and has asked the SUNY Board of Trustees to amend the fee guidelines to permit student monies to be used for the much-needed health services. Integrity Robert Ketter is a man of high integrity. When he tells you something, he is telling you the truth. At a time when faith in our public officials is at its lowest ebb, it is essential that students, faculty, administrators and members of the Buffalo community can look to a University President who is honest During irty tenure as campus editor for Ketter for a a number of exhibited during the political realities being what they are. Dr. Ketter will be reappointed. The University committee evaluating his performance Faculty-Senate chairman Gilbert Moore, former SA president Ion Dandes, Executive vice-president Albert Somit, and UB Council chairman William Baird can only be considered a farce. Dr. Moore and Mr. Dandes are strong Ketter men, and Dr. Somit’s presence on the committee was rightly termed “obscene and immoral” by one department chairman. Albany is expected to follow the local recommendation and reappoint Dr. Ketter. We simply cannot afford five more years of the same type of academic leadership that has emanated from Hayes Hall during Dr. Kettcr’s first term. While he has brought sound management to the University, Dr. Ketter’s years as President have been fraught with academic stagnation. The decline of the Colleges and the departure of many liberal faculty members attest to this stagnation. So does the University’s failure to attract higher quality faculty. And the general boredom of many students and faculty coupled with the feeling that the University is turning into a are further degree-granting factory indicators'of our stagnant campus. By contrast, the University was an exciting place academically during the 1967-69 Meyerson era. New ideas flowed freely because President Martin Meyerson and his staff encouraged experimentation, creativity and risk-taking. — — THE — - — scheme. Because Dr. Ketter does not make many mistakes, it is difficult to point to instances - Innovation Warren Bennis, vice-president for Academic Development during the Meyerson days and currently president of the University of Cincinnatti, wrote of the tone of the State University of Buffalo during the late 1960’s: “Meyerson’s clear intent [was] to raise the self-esteem of the university, the self-esteem of the faculty and students, and the self-esteem of the Buffalo community.” He continued: “Buffalo raided Harvard, Yale and Princeton. Each new appointment increased enthusiasm, generated new ideas and escalated the Meyerson optimism. The tiny crowded campus barely contained the excitement. Intellectual communities formed and flourished.” Dr. Ketter’s appointees also leave much to be desired, especially vice-president for Academic Affairs Bernard Gelbaum. Through a combination of stupid decisions and regressive thinking. Dr. Gelbaum has provoked the ire of students, faculty and his fellow administrators. Whether it be cancelling College courses, appointing himself acting director of the Colleges, or unilaterally devising his own Master Plan for the University, Dr. Gelbaum has alienated virtually every segment of the campus community. So why does Dr. Ketter keep Dr. Gelbaum in a post where —continued from page where he has acted wrongly. But this University needs someone who will stir up some excitement, motivate faculty and students and revive the feeling that the University is indeed a University; a President to set long range goals, formulate priorities, and create a direction for our University. Although his reappointment is virtually assured, constructive criticism is vital to help Dr. Ketter provide the leadership needed to lift the University out of die mediocre academic quagmire it now occupies. 1— .. budget and other budget priorities.

The strength of the University lies in its students and faculty, and Or. Ketter has failed to inspire these elements towards a “spirit of inquiry and genuine experimentation, a life based on discovering new realities, of taking risks, suffering occasional defeats, and not fearing the surprise of the future,” traits Dr. Bennis has correctly identified as essential in a progressive University. In addition to fhe absence of excitement, there is a real fear among many faculty members that if they speak out or advocate innovative programs, they may lose their jobs. And while tire tight job market and not punishments by the Ketter Administration is primarily responsible for this fcar,l)r. Ketter must bear the responsibility for not dispelling these faculty rapport with people is a must, and innovative ideas a prerequisite for moving forward? Similarly, Executive vice-president Albert Somit, among others, has been criticized for erecting a psychological wall between Hayes Hall and thejnainstream of the campus. A few of Dr. Ketter’s recent appointees Irving Spitzberg as Dean of the Colleges and Carter Pannill as are vice-president for Health Sciences excellent, and if President Ketter is reappointed, he would be wise to replace his less-than-qualified subordinates with men of high quality. Paradoxically, Dr. Ketter has centralized most of the decision-making in his office, yet he has failed to assume an activist leadership role. When he does act, it is often to negate the dubious acts of others as in the veto of the plus-minus grading meeting. President Robert Ketter has not yet considered these new depositions, but indicated that charges were beuig brought against the students who disrupted Monday’s Assembly meeting by standing on tables. They will get a hearing before the Hearing Committee on Public Order in 10 to 15 days and face possible suspension. Meanwhile, the next attempt at passing SA budgets will come on Monday, following the Student Judiciary’s hearing Sunday on the audit.

The bill, which is now headed for the State senate, would also mandate the death penalty for the murder of an individual by a person sentenced to a life term in prison, while the inmate was in prison or dining the period he was not in custody because of an escape. The Assembly approved the measure by a vote of 94 to 51. By specifying the instances in which the death penalty would be mandatory, the bill attempts to circumvent a U.S. Supreme Court ruling that death penalty statutes are unconstitutional as “cruel and unusual punishment” if imposition of the sentence is arbitrary. , by Linda Wagner Spectrum Staff Obiter Supplies of energy as a limiting factor in the planning of land development at local levels: this emerged as a theme of the Erie County Project on Energy and Development Patterns conference in downtown Buffalo fast Monday. “Inexpensive energy can no longer be taken for granted,” warned Senator James L. Buckley (C-R, N.Y.). “We have the capacity to preserve and expand our lifestyles in a conservationist manner,” Mr. Buckley told the conference audience. The Project on Energy and Development Patterns, first suggested by Erie County Executive Edward Regan last December, will study the effects of energy supply and demand on land use decisions, such as those concerning mass transit construction, housing, sewage treatment plants, and new building sites. Theodore Hullar, associate professor of Medicinal Chemistry at this University, is chairperson of the county project. The project will spend several months determining energy costs and developing guidelines for land use decisions which can guide private land developers as well as town and village planning boards. Its sponsors include the Buffalo Area Chamber of Commerce, the Environmental Clearinghouse Organization, the City of Buffalo, State University College at Buffalo, Canisius College, and this University. University involvement Individuals from local government, governmental agencies, business, industry, citizens’ groups, and universities attended the two-hour conference. All were invited to participate on any of the four task groups formed by the project. The task groups were organized to assess the design, energy, economic, and governmental aspects of alternative developmental opportunities. Milt Kaplan, professor of Law at this University, is coordinating the development guidance task group, which will deal with the governmental aspects. Ibrahim Jammal, professor of Architecture and Design here, will act as coordinator of the energy impact task group. Ray Manuszewski, co-chairperson of the project, emphasized the importance of reflecting “all the interests of the Erie County community” in this project. County Executive Regan noted the project will attempt to rectify the “haphazard planning decisions” that have been made in this county in the past, and will seek to help make these decisions “more rationally.” _ Richard Danforth, a city planner representing Mayor Stanley Makowski at the conference, stressed the need for more people to ride buses, rather than drive cars, into downtown Buffalo. He challenged the project to “produce ideas we can use.” High-density living George Tappert, an assistant in Energy Affairs in the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, pointed out the difficulty of deciding how much the government can legally do in regulating energy usage. He also said that while high-density living is more efficient for energy conservation, “we must make higher-density living more attractive if we expect people to want to live in the city.” “The best media to direct the forms of energy growth is through the coercive and reasoning process of well-conducted planning,” said Dennis Rapp, director of environmental analysis for the state Public Service Commission. “Something permanent needs to be done in moderating our institutions,” he said, suggesting that the authority of planning “must be strengthened.” The town of Ramapo has instituted a new zoning ordinance with time increments to control the community’s growth. John McAlevey, former supervisor of the town, stressed the need to “not move too fast,” with such changes.

The four minority Justices William O. Douglas, William J. Brennan, Byron White and Thurgood Marshall accused the majority of “sidestepping” the issue, and charges that theit refusal to hear the case “clearly disserves ftid public interest - - — — ” *. «. .» * - ' * Because he was white? Mr. DeFunis was rejected for the second time from Washington Law; School in 1971, although his law board scores were higher than those of 37 minority students who were accepted. Charging that he had been discriminated against because he was white, Mr. DeFunis sued the law school. Of the 150 students the law school accepted in 1971, the 44 minority students admitted were considered in a separate group, rated against other minority students but not against the bulk of white applicants. A Washington trial court ruled for Mr. DeFunis and he was admitted to the law school, but the Washington Supreme Court overturned that ruling by upholding the law school’s admission policy. However, a stay of that ruling permitted Mr. DeFunis to remain in law school until now,.when he is about to graduate. The majority for the Supreme Court stated that “if the admissions procedures of the law school remain unchanged, there is no reason to suppose that a subsequent case attacking those procedures will not come with relative speed to this court.” This statement, which seemed to imply dissatisfaction with the law school’s admission process’ led The New York Times to editorialize that universities must re-examine their admissions processes and “work out better procedures for the protection of the rights of all applicants ” Legal limbo The DeFunis case had attracted Widespread national attention because a definitive Supreme Court ruling would have had an important impact on affirmative action and minority hiring programs in both schools and industry. Although the majority agreed that the Supreme Court would ultimately have to decide the thorny issue of reverse discrimination in another case within a few years, the Court’s inaction leaves minority admissions programs at colleges and universities across the country in a state of legal limbo; Charles Wallen, registrar at the State University of Buffalo’s Law School, said the Supreme Court “did nothing” and OTB or Governor? Mr. Samuels has voluntarily disclosed all his financial contributions at 60-day intervals during the campaign. His plans call for establishing an independent agency to audit all funds spent by political parties and campaign organizations. The election reform program he envisions would include a form of partial public financing in all state and local elections. Mr. Samuels would also set up a State Board of Ethics to review the investments and tax returns of all major state officials. Transit, not highways Among the goals Mr. Samuels would work for as Governor are: A reversal of priorities from the funding of unneeded highways to mass transit investments; a law which would require that all cars sold in the state get at least 20 miles per gallon of gas; a changing of the educational curriculum to encourage more women to pursue careers; and ensuring the Public Service Commission’s investigation of every aspect of the utilities’ operations and productivity before granting new rate increases. These are all part of Mr. Samuels’ plans for running the State government. Mr. Samuels, a proven administrator, considers his background in government agencies to be the tiros} important requirement for the top executive job in the state. As evidence of his abilities, he cites his role as President of the New York City Off-Track Betting Corporation which he claims to have built into New York City’s “largest retail business.” He also mentions his work as Administrator of the Federal Small Business Administration, where he initiated a program aimed at iincreasing loans to minority-owned businesses by 300 per cent. In addition, having lived and worked in upstate New York as well as New 'York City, Mr. Samuels claims to be'the “one candidate for Governor .who represents both upstate and downstate New York.” — For gems from the Jewish Bible PHONE 875-4265 Europe-lsrael-Africa-So.

All the dissenting Justices noted the intense national interest in the case, depicted by the 26 “friend-of-the-court” briefs filed by interested and affected parties.

Buffalo Law School has no “quota” for minority students and only usually Because Edelstam to speak Haas Lounge to host the leader in the race c Hear the case was really “moot.” Had the Court decided unfavorably for the law school, Mr. Wallen said Buffalo Law School would have to change its admissions policy. But the present policy will continue because of the Court’s inaction, Mr. Wallen said. However, Dannye Holley, chairman of Buffalo Law School’s minority admissions committee, does not feel that a Supreme Court decision would necessarily have been applicable to Buffalo Law School. The University of Washington “did not attempt to quantify other academic factors for minority students,” Dr. Holley explained. UGL initiates book drive to provide enriched coverage by Karen Itell Spectrum Staff Writer As part of its continuing effort to he receptive to student needs, the Undergraduate Library (UGL) in Diefendorf Annex is launching its first book drive. The purpose of this endeavor, explained undergraduate librarian Yoram Szekely, is to enrich the UGL collection with books of specific interest to undergraduates. Working with severely limited funds, the library has not been able to sufficiently stock its shelves. Although the UGL is not intended as a major research facility, it does require additional materials to provide adequate introductory coverage of subject matter, especially in the humanities and social sciences. The book drive will get underway within the next week or so, and will be continued in the fall if it proves successful. The UGL places no restrictions on subject matter, although it requests that no high school texts be donated. Periodicals, hardcover books and paperbacks can be brought to the UGL reference desk, which is open from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m., Monday through Friday. Tax-deductible books Donations become the property of the UGL, which determines the suitability and usage of all materials. As further incentive, providing the donor leaves his name and address, the library will furnish a written acknowledgement and monetary evaluation which may be used for income tax deductions. The notion of a book drive was born in a tommittee. Composed of six undergraduate members, this committee meets regularly with Mr. Szekely to discuss topics pertinent to the effective use of the UGL. meeting of the UGL steering 20 hours a day In the past, the UGL has requested student input in various other fashions. One example is its questionnaire regarding the use of the library’s extended hours. Initially, a student delegation requested that the UGL be kept open 24 hours a day. In mid-February, the UGL compromised by opening for 20 hours per day on a trial basis for four weeks. The results of the questionnaire proved overwhelmingly that the new hours were being used effectively. Therefore, the library decided to keep the hours until the end of this semester and probably permanently. Although such action has proven of considerable cost to the UGL staff, the UGL sees this as an imperative alternative to the severe lack of sufficient study space on the Main Street campus.

The view was reminiscent of a scene from a Ray Bradbury novel. Actually, the scene is from the Amherst Campus, and the particular view described is the EUicott Complex as it was seen by Sub-Board’s Division of Energy and Resources who were approaching the site for a tour of the new Complex. From a somewhat closer perspective, the EUicott. Complex became a collection of parallel, perpendicular and angled lines of brick, concrete and glass. As the tour entered the building, the first room observed was a lounge with columns of brick supporting a sound-proof ceiling. The walls, were alternately glass and brick. A cafeteria was the next stop. /' ■ Its tiled floor, brick walls and aluminum kitchen facilities were familiar to those who have eaten at the Governor’s Residence Halls. Next a room which had been built to serve as a library was identified as one of the indoor game rooms for student residents. Part of therecreation facilities will also include four basketball and four tennis courts. Repetitious design Then up a purple staircase to see the rooms where 1200 students will be living lounges and carpeted hallways served to break some of the monotony. Descending down a staircase designed in a geometric spiral, the group stopped upon arrival at a small theater workshop, which will be fully equipped with closed-circuit cameras. The ceiling was broken by a glass-and-brick pyramid which protruded onto the large open terrace which connects all the buildings. The next stop unpopulated halls was immediately striking. The sterile, white walls, not yet decorated by favorite pictures and posters, seemed hopelessly impersonal. The new Complex was not without the repetition of design common to all dorms. Furnished was a larger, more intricately designed drama workshop. The floors and seats were built of polished wood, giving the room an unmistakably warm atmosphere. The lighting for the stage would come frpm platforms built above the empty scats' and an area for set designs was available. Pub and bookstore From there the tour moved into a room which was to be licensed for use as a pub or rathskellar. The pub had the same glass-and-brick pyramid as the small theater workshop, and it allowed sunlight to filter down into the room. Past the pub is the bookstore, which is inaccessible without passing through the pub. This may give some students a great deal of difficulty in trying to remember to buy books. Traveling through a winding brick corridor, some offices were observed. Then the group came upon a large concrete and brick lecture hall/film theater. It was explained that the floors would be carpeted, but seats may not be immediately put in. Proceeding down a glass-sided corridor, a large section of the Complex became visible. The windows looked like a countless series of cubbyholes in a mass of brick and concrete. The scene must have been similar to the architect’s concept as he began drawing the blueprints. For a few seconds, the view was as fascinating as a city skyline as it brings about realizations of man’s capabilities or reminders that Orwell’s 1984 is ten years away. Friday, 26 April 1974 The Spectrum Page seven . . �I TflDITORIAL Editor i Note: to provide a forum for the affected groups and individuals in the current controversy surrounding the Student Association budget, The to Spectrum today has opened its editorial pages former Union, Student Black by the comments Student needs: top priority Spokesmen for minority students at this University have demanded that Student Association allocate their.groups all the fees minus 12% for banking services that minority students must pay. Under the mandatory system, they claim, minority students are forced to pay $67 to a white Student Association to subsidize white-oriented activities which minority students don't use. The logic is compelling; many of their points are valid;but if carried too far, it becomes a separatist argument; one which says there should be two Student Associations, one black and one white. Aside from the moral arguments against such a segrega tional system, many functions funded by student fees simply overlap the color of one's skin: services such as health care, intramural sports, day care, legal aid. and even the room space in Norton Union which houses the minority organizations. As with taxes, every student on this campus is forced to subsidize things he doesn't use. A few minority students may even attend a movie or concert once, and it would be unreasonable to charge them for this, as it would not be feasible to charge them for health care or other services. Minority students cannot get back all their fees; some portion must help pay for the services which transcend ethnic interests. But the fact that many white-oriented expenses are useless to minorities must be strongly considered in arriving at a formula that will channel a large portion of their fees back to the minority students themselves. As for the argument that minority students should be able to divide their funds themselves among BSU, PODER and the other minority groups, the proper channel for this would be through the office of the SA Minority Affairs coordinator. Recognizing that minority students are fed up with whites telling them where their money should go, two stipulations must be made. One, any minority group that does not want to join this Third World caucus must have the option to go directly to SA for funding. Two, while minority students should determine their own spending priorities, every expense must be approved by the SA Treasurer, as for every other student-funded group. If SA agrees to channel minority monies through the SA Minority Affairs coordinator, all that remains is to compromise on a figure that would reflect minority needs minus the campus-wide services to which all students must contribute. The time for pressure tactics and standing on tables is over; the minority groups have made their point; a sensible compromise is now in order. It may have been a blessing in disguise that Wednesday's third attempt at a Student Assembly budget hearing was cancelled by a restraining order demanding a full audit of past SA spending only because the delay may have cooled tempers and lowered the emotional temperature. Nobody is denying the need for a complete audit, but it is foolish to postpone the budgets until one is completed. Audits can show serious discrepancies but cannot explain them; and we fail to see how past abuses can alter the hard decisions on budget priorities which the Assembly now faces. A full audit is being prepared; we hope the Student Judiciary will recognize that delaying the budgets further will only place the priorities in the fewer hahds of the SA Executive Committee. All the groups seeking more money have naturally taken pot-shots at the large $182,000 budget for intercollegiate athletics. But many other areas in the budget are over-funded as well; athletics should not be arbitrarily slashed while other groups are given a blank check without justifying each of its expenses. Each group seeking funds, as well as each varsity team, must answer the question: Does the number of students you benefit justify the amount of money you are asking for? Only the most popular sports teams notably basketball, draw enough spectators to demonhockey and wrestling strate that students besides the team members benefit from their funding. Most of the smaller sports should probably be clubs, not varsity teams. As a school, we cannot be UCLA or Ohio State; we must upgrade the sports teams that do have strong student support, and perhaps let the others compete as clubs or against other SUNY schools.

Although this week's disruptions in Haas Lounge has led many onlooking students to view student government as something of a circus, the bitter in-fighting for dollars has awoken many students and placed a much-needed focus on the fact that budget priorities must reflect the number of students served, not interest group coercion or power politics. - — — — — — Page eight.

A budget that would provide for the needs and individuality of all undergraduate students comprising UB. On Monday, April 22, Student Association took its budget recommendations to the Student Assembly. The Student Assembly, the legislative branch of student government, had the job of accepting, rejecting, or amending any parts of the budget it deemed necessary. On Monday, it never got a chance. On Monday, a spectacle took place that made a mockery of student government. Certain interest took over the Assembly that they f been “the shaft." iced ibers of on the Chairman’s table, kicked over papers, ripped up papers, and vocally made a shamble\ of the proceedings. What’s even more unfortunate, these groups did not permit any statements to be made from the people they were Student Association. accusing On Tuesday, the situation was the same. Only this time other interest groups had jumped on the bandwagon to disrupt the Assembly meeting. Again, they did not permit the people they accused to answer their questions: Namely, Student Association. On Wednesday, the situation - ' ’ was the same but the circumstances were different. This time, members affiliated with these interest groups, obtained an injunction which stopped voting on any budgets. This prompted the meeting to be recessed until After the recess was called, the leaders of these same groups decided to take over the meeting and continue with their barrage of accusations against Student Association. Well, it’s time that Student Association spoke out on some of the accusations made against it. If undergraduate students want to hear the other side of the story, then let them read this! Accusation No. 1: “Is Student Association afraid to make public an audit showing where student money has gone?” Answer: Student Association has never said it was afraid of publishing an audit. In fact, an audit has been made of Student Association funds from the years 1971-72 thru 1972-73. The auditors names are Haskins and Sells. A full disclosure will made public as soon as they us an itemized breakdown of where any possible discrepancies lie. A causation No. 2: “The members of the Student Association have been ripping off stipends.” Answer: Each and every member of Student Association did not undertake 'their positions for the sheer fun of it. Being a member of Student Association is more than a full-time job. Yes, more than a full-time job that requires all of its members to spend many hours working in the SA office. It must be understood that each and every member has the job of representing all the students and the clubs they belong to. Problems with the North Campus, the Athletic Bubble, a Pub, Health Care, Athletics, etc., etc. all of these are being constantly worked on by all the members. Student Association has the job of being on top of these situations twenty-four hours a day. The money is not the reward we get from working up here. That reward is a personal satisfaction that every hour we spend up here is benefiting all students. We try our hardest to listen to all students and their demands. And clearly, if more students gave a damn about our work up here, perhaps we could do our job that much better. Taking our stipends away would be the ultimate slap in the face to those people who are trying to do a damn good job for all students at UB. \ Accusation No. 3: “The elitists in the Student Association have recommended a budget with students by collecting - warped priorities!” CORUTION The outcome of each of the recent Student Assembly meetings was a student protest against the priorities manifested in the SA budget. This protest by minority and community-oriented student groups has been developing over the past year. The SA budget struggle has been portrayed by the campus media as a racial struggle black against white students. This portrayal is characteristic of our society, where racial tensions are played on and used as a “divide and conquer” tactic. The UB Administration is pushing this tactic (as did Jon Dandes’ SA Administration), because as long as students on this campus are divided, no movement to make substantial change in university policy can develop and grow. Everyone involved must recognize the special burden that minority students have had to face historically. The SA budget reflects the UB Administration’s policy: it demonstrates a grave lack of awareness of this burden and serves to further divide students. We must not allow the SA budget struggle to become an issue where groups are divided along racial lines. We must see it as an issue of the priorities of this university, which financially cut back and politically destroy all progressive elements on campus. We implore white groups to continue to visibly fight the cutbacks of those programs. We implore white groups not to blend into the “white woodwork” and not to let the Black Student Union be the focal point of attacks. All, progressive elements must fight to clarify the issue at hand an issue which is not black vs. white, but reactionary policy vs. progressive change. We ask the SA delegates to seriously consider the issues and to ensure that the demands of BSU, CAC, WNYPIRG, etc. are not isolated. These organizations create the possibility for students to use their student fees for meaningful cultural and social activities, especially in the case of minority students who have traditionally been students denied access to social, political, and economic resources. We ask further that the SA delegates place a high priority on organizations such as Health Care, - — - Day Care, Legal Aid, Sunshine House, etc. We feel that all these organizations are supported by and give service to many more students than the organizations in the Athletic Department, and thus deserve to be given a much higher priority in the SA budget allocations. At the recent SA meetings, it was clearly demonstrated that there is widespread support for these views. However, in its present form, the SA represents only a small portion of the student body and is not responsive to these views. If the present budget is to be determined in a manner which reflects the prevailing student sentiment, the SA must be made open to constituencies which have so far been unrepresented. This must happen before the SA budget is determined. These groups do want to be part of the SA and have failed to obtain representation in the past because of either inadequate information, or misunderstanding about the proper procedures, or a lack of faith in the SA due to the ineffectiveness that previous SA’s have shown in dealing with the issues that concern these groups, or unfulfilled promises from student government that the needs of their organization would be met. These are certainly poor reasons for denying access to these groups at this point. In fact, SA should view this as a good opportunity to change itself into a body which is more representative of student viewpoints. If SA could then, with the help of these groups, make concerted efforts to deal with the issues of minority rights, consumer and community action, health care and day care, this broad representative body would not be one that functioned only at budget time and would begin to become a truly effective student organization. As an important first step towards ameliorating the divisive atmosphere that now exists, we feel that the SA should recognize the trying circumstances that led to the actions at Monday’s Assembly meeting and support the people who have had depositions filed against them in any way possible. Community/University Coalition Answer: This Student Association entered government daring a critical financial period. It had to sit down with some very real facts before it made the budjet. They were: (1) More clubs had formed and wanted money from SA; (2) Student Association lost its $70,000 reserve funds when it was used by last year’s administration to pay off SA’s $100,000 deficit; (3) Student Association had a $25,000 debt. This debt must be cleared off its ledger, according to a SUNY central attorney in Albany. (4) A very real inflationary spiral of 15% in supplies for all organizations had to be compensated for; (S) a unified budget had to be prepared that would reflect the individual needs of all students. To the best of its ability, SA listened to all groups and later, recommended an equitable and unified budget. The input was there from all groups. Nobody was left out. We were not elitists. If the students did not like the recommendations of the finance committee, they could change whatever they wanted in the Student Assembly. Unfortunately, the Student Assembly wasn't permitted to hear the budget. There are many more unsubstantiated accusations leveled at those people working in Student Association. We at Student Association would ask all students to keep their minds open until we have been given a chance to speak out on them. A great place to hear our responses will be at Monday’s Student Assembly meeting at 4 p.m. in Haas Lounge. Hopefully, ALL groups will give tell our side. us the chance to Sudden death by Dave Geringer Sports Editor For the umpteenth consecutive year, the funding of athletics has been attacked. While the use of student fees for athletics is a much less desirable situation than the state’s funding of sports, the budget must be worked out within the framework of the present situation. It is very easy to stand up in front of the Student Assembly and take cheap shots at the Athletic Department’s allocation of $241,699.82. It is a comparatively simple task, when one desires greater funding for another group, to say; “Why should $240,000 go to athletics?” It is a far more difficult job to read and reread each budget, holding the responsibility for the allocation of each budget, as does the Finance Committee. Yet, year after year, there are those who will stand up in front of an Assembly meeting, cry out for a cut in athletic funding, and be applauded loudly. It is absurd for people to take figures out of the air and immediately decide that they are too large or small. The question, “Don’t you think $240,000 is too large an allocation for sports?” only conveys the ignorance of the questioner, who apparently decides budgets by some magical formula, utilizing only the sound of numbers, rather than hours of reading, rereading and hard decision-making. People who believe the Athletic Department’s allocation of $240,000 represent an increase in intercollegiate sports funding should take a second look. Due to the building of the Amherst Campus bubble facility for recreation and intramurals, an increase of $15,000 is required. A law passed by Congress mandating equal funding for women’s sports requires that those programs receive an increase of approximately $10,000. Taking into account an inflationary increase of $10,000, the Athletic Department would receive an allocation of $252,000 if all other programs were maintained at the same level as they were this year. However, the allocation called for was approximately $11,000 less than that figure. Is that an increase? Obviously, there must be direction in the Athletic Department to determine where future priorities will lie. Should sports such as baseball, wrestling, hockey and basketball, which could bring in more money once the move to Amherst is completed and repay some of their allocation in the form of income, be improved? Or should sports such as crew be granted varsity status, bringing the ultimate effect of dragging down the level of all of the programs to the same status? Perhaps a freeze on the granting of varsity status to any sport in the future until stability in the athletic program is achieved would be a temporary solution. Friday, 26 April 1974 The Spectrum Page nine . . - �Guest Opinion by David Richman assistant director Student Legal Aid CUnlc Guest Opinion Editor’s Note: Richard A. Siggelkow, the Administration's vice-president for Student.Affairs, indicates that his views relative to voluntary/mandatory fees remains unchanged since his attached statement that appeared in the March 14. 1973 issue ofSASU’s Update. If anything, his opposition to the present mandatory fee system is "reinforced, because of the significant amount of money to be allocated (now approaching $1,000,000) and the increasing tendency toward divisiveness and pressure tactics on the part of short-lived student groups competing for financial support. ” by Richard A. Siggelkow Vice-President for Student Affairs The following personal opinion should be preceded by the generally adequate and noble performance of student leaders, who should be commended for their remarkable attempts to operate under the present idiotic mandatory fee system. What other organization in modern society enjoys the privilege of assessing a tax and disbursing revenues without interference, while at the same time calling on another, somewhat unrelated body, to collect that tax, enforce payment, and impose penalties for non-payment? Major concerns about activity fee expenditures revolve around lack of “guidelines” clarity, an individual student’s inability to be involved in financial decision, effective intimidation by special interest groups even when concern exists about the appropriateness of certain allocations student difficulties in facing up to real accountability and responsible action, inadequate managerial experience, limited financial sophistication, and lack of effective recourse for the individual student who, on principle does not desire to participate. If the intent of the SUNY Trustees was to encourage student leaders to recommend expenditures without properly investigating how these monies are ultimately expended, the present system is truly a great success. The entire situation is complicated by lack of continuity from one short-lived government to the next. Present “guidelines” are so ambiguous that any first year Law student could drive a truck through them. And, unless payment is waived for reasons of personal hardship, the institution is placed in the untenable position of having to withhold registration of any student who, in good conscience, sincerely desires not to support certain programs, this is tantamount to expulsion, and the penalty should at least fit the crime. Continued attendance should not be dependent on such payment. And, whether acknowledging — — Page ten THe Spectrum Friday, 26 April 1974 . . they like it or not, students are now virtually committed to a four (!) year period of such expenditures, sincere there is no present requirement for an annual referendum procedure. Students, rightly concerned about “graft" in the external world, should be especially alert about alleged personal long distance calls, cocktails for guest speakers (and students), travel expenses, expensive radio and camera equipment, that may be legally written off as “lost” all on their money. Perhaps it requires too much courage for student government leaders to justify decisions that are sometimes influenced through fear, harrassment, and intimidation by special interest groups, even when these are now always — truly representative of any homogeneous constituency. Reqpmmended expenditures should directly benefit the university community and members of the student body who supply the financial resources, and for whom this strange system was originally designed; these monies are not for-personal use, nor should they be allocated to outside groups and programs not directly related to the institution proper. Furthermore, what wonderful things would disappear if student fees became voluntary? Name them. Now ask, what would really result from the elimination or reduction of such programs? Truly worthwhile activities would still gain support from interested individuals. Organizations would function even more efficiently with sincere student input and commitment, their leaders no longer lethargically counting on automatic survival through mandatory fees. This would also do wonders to improve the student press, which could then be supported entirely through advertising revenues and voluntary support. The eventual result might well be true independence and journalistic freedom, even from student government constraints. Unfortunately, student fees apparenty support too many ongoing programs, including athletics, at all SUNY units. Such budgetary relationships make it too easy to compromise values. A strange form of hypocrisy exists. Administrators, like students, don’t always want to admit any such interdependent relationship between student fees and certain ongoing institutional activities. If out-of-class experiences are part of the educational process, the state ought to provide necessary support for such programs. In fact, inter-collegiate athletics, often criticized by many student leaders, are one primary reason why the present peculiar system has survived as long as it has. If the state supported sdch endeavors as it should, to use a student rationale the present fee system would not long survive. For that matter, if most students and faculty really do not want to support athletics, why should any educational institution keep them going? Voluntary assessments, in my opinion, would still provide sufficient opportunities to develop necessary educational enrichment programs. At least, some important educational principles involved in learning how to defend, support, and sell one’s ideas under the voluntary fee structure could well outweigh any resulting curtailment of existing programs. An established formula, perhaps through regular tuition charges, to maintain desired programs is preferable to the present form of insanity, especially if there were reassurance that monies thus collected would be returned to each SUNY unit on a proportionate basis. — — �„ 't . ■ LSD experimenter is alive and Yes, Ken Kesey is alive and, as he told the crowd in the Buffalo State Union Social Hall Tuesday night, better than ever. A volunteer subject for th*. first experiments with LSD at Stanford University about a decade ago, Kesey went oji to epitomize the consciousness of a whole generation of drug users and flower children. He and his band of Merry Pranksters and assorted hangers-on, including Augustus Owsley Stanley and a new band which called itself the Grateful Dead, were immortalized by Tom Wolfe in his best-seller The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test. Today, Kesey still talks of his old friends, still "sits around the kitchen table with Baba Ram Dass, solving the universe's problems" but he does it surrounded by a wife, children, and sixty acres of farmland in Pleasant Hill, Oregon, where he attends PTA meetings and coaches the high school wrestling — team. The authjbr of Sometimes a Great Notion and One Flew the Cuckoo's Nest (which ranks with Joseph Heller*; Catch-22 as one of the definitive modern American statements on the insanity of the "sane") started the evening by reading several selections from his own and his.friends' poetry. ("Im not a poet," he explained and he isn't a liar either "but a lot of times I get up in the morning and I'm not into writing a novel.") Ovtif - — Pleasant Hill heavy He reminisced a little and explained his present position, which is that of a "community heavy" in Pleasant Hill ("where I feel the action is"). But the main focus of Kesey's talk was on the politics of ecology and "the protein crisis, which is coming fast" (be gives it 10 to 14 months), the importance of which he has been emphasizing and re-emphasizing at colleges all over the country in the past few months. "We're up to our armpits and we've got to stop!" Kesey in superfluousnesc, announced, adding: "Just look at the size of these speakers, man. You'd think I was Jerry Garcia." He sees this as the most critical problem ever faced by humankind. ("A year ago, I would have said mankind," he admitted.) "It's like having gangrene in one leg we have to cure that leg or we wilt die." Responding to the fatalistic remarks of some of his audience, he insisted that "there is a possible future ... and our worst enemy is our pessimism." Optimism is the main weapon right now of the Bend in the River Control, an organization based in Bend, Oregon and dedicated to exploring "possible directions for the next 25 years" which Kesey is helping to form. His talk was followed by nominations and a vote for two Buffalo representatives (Andy Elston and Mike Lowdon were the eventual choices) to attend the Council's July 4 conference in Bend. Convinced that "our problem comes" from believing that there is someone smart enough to lead us," he is recruiting as many delegates across the country as the grant-and-donation-funded Council can support to broaden our base of ecologically-minded leadership. Kesey admits that the Bend Council's aims are extremely vague, but sees that as an asset which will result in a more open-minded membership. As far as anyone knows now, the delegates' only job will be reporting back to interested Buffalonians after the conference. What happens after that may well determine what ultimately happens to all of us; Ken Kesey refuses to allow us to ignore that most important point.

The band now numbers ten, including three horn players and two female vocalists (one being Maryann Price, late of the HotLicks). Ray wasted no time bringing the crowd to its feet as the band swung into a rollicking version of ''Victoria," followed by ''One Of The Survivors." "Celluloid Heroes" came next, a Kink classic if ever there was one, complete with Ray barely strumming his acoustic guitar. But it didn't matter; 'cuz let it now be said once and for all: Ray Davies is not only the greatest performer rock and roll has ever seen, but he's the best since P.T. Barnum.

Jewels Akimbo Writer of This Article Progressives, I am sure, would have us applaud director Jeffrey C. Scofield's courage in broaching the heretofore taboo issue of "the Criminal," and in staging actual illegal activities on the movie screen in his latest film What's Wrong with This Picture? To my knowledge, this has never been tried before, but Mars Bar wrappings, it can do nothing but cheapen a movie and bolster the already-flagging of America held by foreign critics and peopfS. This is especially inappropriate when dealing with a serious subject. Perhaps', in future films, the director will employ some sort of "clean-up man" if he himself is too lazy to tidy up sets. Grim What's Wrong with This Picture is the depressing saga of two down-and-out SCUBA divers who embark on a desperate, unlawful scheme to "knock over" the local bank. Our two protagonists are played by Orson Welles ("To Tell The Truth," 'Tve Got A Secret") and Cary Grant ("My Mother," 'The Car"), respectively. The two former SCUBA divers enter the bank and make a scene by loudly challenging its president. 'This bank," Welles announces, "is a crackerbox!" "Anyone could set up housekeeping in your vault," Grant continues, "coming and going as he pleased." Glancing nervously at the bank's patrons, the president agrees to the test our heroes propose. "By tomorrow morning," Welles says, "anything could get into your bank vault." 'That's impossible," says the bank president, played by newly-discovered Goucho Marx, shy twin brother of humorist Groucho Marx, "our vault is impregnable, though all our tellers are pregnant." "If that is the case," Grant shouts, "then let us each choose one thing. If these three things are in the vault by tomorrow morning, you will pay my tactful experimentation does not itself make for good cinema. And this is as true today as it was in Shakespeare's time. Neatness is crucial to good cinema; nothing is more amateurish and just plain messy than Pepsi cans, candy wrappers and unless I miss my guess apple cores strewn around the sets.

Opportunity missed The look of hopeless frustration on the faces of these men is sickening. How could the director and screenwriter.

State by Randi Schnur Assistant Arts Editor Films that are well-acted, beautifully directed, gorgeous to look at, and really entertaining all at the same time are as rare as they are terrific. Intelligence and box-office success, the kind that encourages producers to let talented filmmakers experiment more than once, find each other about as often. The Three Musketeers, Richard Lester's first film since the run of more-or-less-inspired disasters which nearly destroyed his career five years ago, is a good movie by any standards I can think of; its worst flaw is that it all goes by much too fast. Lester's original film, which runs four hours, has been split into two feature-length segments, the second of which will be released in December. The first half, subtitled The Queen's Diamonds, begins with farm boy D'Artagnan's departure for the big city to join King Louis XIM's gallant band of Musketeers. He manages not only to start a feud with Rochefort (evil Cardinal Richelieu's henchman) but also to insult Athcs, Porthos, and Aramis, all within the space of about fifteen minutes. He finds himself scheduled to fight three duels in as many .hours; when the trio all happen to arrive at the same time and are suddenly challenged by clergymen at the Carmelite Convent in which they meet, the newcomer gets his big chance to show off. — — Room service Finally accepted by the others, he finds a servant and a room. Things happen very quickly to D'Artagnan he falls in love with his landlord's wife as suddenly as he had first found himself in conflict with each of his other new friends. Constance is the Queen's lady-in-waiting, home on her one free night of the week; later, when the Queen's gift of a dozen diamond studs to her lover (the Duke of Buckingham England's chief minister) gets her into deep trouble with Louis, D'Artagnan's rather incomprehensible love for her confidante leads the Musketeers to rush off to England and almost certain death. All of this is played with a clever mixture of slapstick humor and sophistication. Tarzan-like leaps onto opponent's heads are always aimed wrong; Athos, about to split a challenger in half, is suddenly lifted off the ground by a large and unfriendly water wheel. One of the film's funniest scenes shows a duel staged in a tavern by the starving Aramis and Porthos, who has just gambled away all his money. Their swords just happen to spear whole chickens and slash open winebags as they fight, and by the time they leave they have collected a week's — — Stars **** M U)(on Tickets $3.50 students $4.50 non-students & night of performance. - Slapstick and action in overwhelming film worth of dinners. and 2 special star acts (to be announced) Lester's 'Musketeers' The cast is every bit as dazzling as the diamond studs they're all running after.

There ere three songs that tickled me out of somnambulism: One entitled “Matted Spam" which has the quirky sound of Paul Butterfield's big band and Dave Mason. The lyrics are as insipid as every other song served up, yet the vocal and horn mix (feisted by Jim Horn) work hard enough to push the song through. Besides, I was intrigued by the title. (Was this a comment on their product? Spam for all the grande kitch boeuff's, is meatloaf in a can, looks pre-digested and tastes similarly. Master tapes, before pressed into earwaffles, are canned, too. The equation between processed meat and the lack of process shown here I leave to you, dear readers.) Oh, the other two ditties that are of note are a ,i calypson (ha, fooled you, this ain't no jimmy cliff hanger, they're so sedately British) called "Where do we go from here?" and a John Lennon screamer called "Andy Norris." But enough of the plight of this lonely reviewer and his dreams of days of tasty domino cookies and moo-wine. - — I'm as soppy (read not sappy, foul reader friend) as the next paramutoid on the street All I want to do is rock and roll, move into some sensory delectation and have a few gut fancies met.

Dear Sloopy please keep on hanging it's so easy to slip-disced rave on. — — — —Alan Baratz Jefferson Airplane Early Flight (Grunt) Most of the world's events are a struggle for control control of your working conditions, of your nights out from home, of your rights in your home, and your mind. The controlling agents are the government, abstract ideas, parents, religions, anything you've ever been forced to do or never had the chance to make the choice about. And rising out of the cosmic debris of society are the wholesome notes of music; round, precious, and nothing more than sweet air vibrations, like freedom of thought floating on the environment. Probably the high point in the fight for control, and as a friend of mine said, the greatest year in the history of mankind, was 1969. Strikes against the schools, and the Great War for the open mind. There were even three heavyweight champs out of control, and for all the cynical bullshit said about its heirs, there was Woodstock, where even the elements lost control, and the music took over (for a few days at least). At their energetic peak in '69 was the Jefferson Airplane. They were heavy or light, political or naive, pretty or ugly, or pretty ugly. They stacked their amplifiers and.made music, and if there was a god, they — should be blessed. Everyone who was big then was at their biggest, or if they were dead, they were buried. We hoped that by the turn of the century we'd all be anarchists and every band in the world would get together and make the most amazing music while we could all take LSD without worrying about being reactionary bourgeoisie. Then Marty Balin left the Airplane, and from Paris to pizza, the parallel affects were felt The‘revolution was inherited by people who smile in private, and everyone else shook their heads because the job market hadn't changed to match a few relaxed attitudes. And the music became a customary economic necessity, like dusting off a birthday card to mama each year. Enter the creeps. Creeps hire college graduates, college graduates in psychology, who probe five people in Omaha for a trend. The creeps invest heavy money to further create the need for the trend. And like the under-arm deodorant for the blues, spray-on nostalgia was here. Unfortunately, the world isn't run by 19-year-old, who have my nostalgia, because I frankly like my memories. Instead, the creeps mass-produce a lot of shit for a lot of unhappy people. But for me, what was once fun can still be fun, and the creeps at Grunt Records have their finger on the pulse of my wallet. Early Flight is filled with old Jefferson Airplane, all of it with spirited Marty Balin. There are three songs with the original Airplane, minus Grace Slick, including "High Flyin' Bird," that Richie Havens did so well. There are a couple of jams with Jerry Garcia, but that doesn't mean anything musically here. And a leftover track from Surrealistic Pillow, very nice. The late stuff is from 1970. Balin's singing is full. Grade is bitchy, Jorma plays fine, including that one riff he plays in almost every solo. The creeps said no song has been heard before. Not true. "Have You Seen the Saucers" is from the last live album, and "Mexico" was a single that the President repressed before he lost all his power. But the creeps are allowed to make little lies, or they'll stop producing our culture for us. Today is 1974, but records that don't warp are ageless. Music is always an escape, and escape is freedom, fellows. And if the Jefferson Airplane ever freed you from a mundane day, they probably still can, and most of this album is that sort of slippery sound. Music continues to rise from society at odd angles, and you needn't be a necrophiliac to love Beethoven, or Coltrane, or Hendrix, or the Airplane. —Jeffrey Benson the little big system 399 $ ' We call this a big system because it shares many characteristics of much more expensive systems, but its price makes it little too.

Donald»Larsen, assistant vice-president for Health Sciences, said the Health Science Committee on Facilities will soon issue its report on the present health care system. A preliminary report by this committee has already resulted in the formation of an experimental gynecological program for students. Other programs in the planning stages Include an ambulatory service to be linked up with local hospitals, the sharing of X-ray equipment with the Veterans Administration (VA) Hospital, and instituting a “medical assistant” class which teaches nurses and students to do some of the work of doctors so physicians would have time for more important jobs. Dr. Larsen emphasized upgrading present facilities rather than building “from the ground up,” so the University would not follow the example of Yale University, which began planning a similar program in 1965 and didn’t open its doors until 1971. The Committee on Facilities has suggested that Michael Hall be used only for health care so enough Clifford Furnas College Proudly Announces facilities will be available for epidemics like the recent flu crisis, Pr. Larsen explained. He added that the proposed facilities would be “educational,” and therefore thus geared to the University itself. Discussing the Affirmative Action program, President Robert Kctter advocated a computer study of the hiring procedures and faculty salary scales. “We are in a ‘Catch-22’ situation,” Dr. Ketter said, referring to the fact that he must prepare a program that the Federal Government will accept without knowing what their standards will be. In other business, the Assembly nominated the following people to be Chairman for 1974-75: Nancy Broderick, assistant Provost of Educational Studies, John Greenwood, Graduate Student Association (GSA) and David Saleh, Undergraduate Student Association (SA). Nominated for Secretary were Carolyn Thomas of the Physical Education Department and Martha Manning, associate librarian.

Page eightteen The Spectrum Friday, 26 April 1974 . . Much has happened since the last FSA newsletter was published, and there is a need to bring the University Community up to date. While it is impossible to go into much detail in a report of this length, an attempt is made herein to provide you with at least an overview. BOOKSTORE Last fall, the Student Association undertook a study of Bookstore operations in an effort to find ways to improve service, and reduce prices, to students. This resulted in, among other things, price reductions on several items in the supply department. Another result was a letter written to all faculty members, by the Student Association, asking that they get their textbook orders in as early as possible to help minimize out-of-stock textbooks at the beginning of each semester. The advent of a standing advisory committee, including students, faculty and Bookstore staff, has been proposed by the Student Association and endorsed by the FSA Board of Directors. The for fruitful interchange in this forum appear prospects substantial. �FOOD & VENDING SERVICES The Vending operation can also boast of holding down prices in the face of increasing costs. There has not been a significant price increase for vended products here in the last four years, astounding as that may seem. One area in Vending, however, that can no longer withstand “external” pressure is the 10 cent candy bar, and Vending is finally being forced to go to the 15 cent candy bar. A standing advisory committee for the Food and Vending Services has also been proposed by the Student Association, endorsed by the FSA Board, and, like the Bookstore, the potential exchange of ideas and information appears promising. the formerly separate Food Service and Vending merged into one organization last July 1, and it divisions looks as if the objectives of this consolidation are materializing. The merger seems to be a “natural” since both types of services are concerned with feeding people. Economies of both purchasing and distribution have been achieved. Benefits have been gained from incorporating them under the same were management. They now function in a more complementary manner, with the vending machines being the “silent partner” in places and during hours that it would be uneconomical to provide a manual food operation. While it seems that food costs will never stop rising, the FSA Food Service has been doing its share in keeping price increases as low as possible. For one thing, the current Board Contract price of $320 per semester (for 20 meals per week) is the same price as last year, is substantially lower than all other SUNY units except the one at Cobleskill, and particularly lower than the other University Centers (Albany, Binghamton and Stony Brook). THIS LOW PRICE WAS HELD IN SPITE OF SERVICE CENTER The Service Center provides linen and related services to students in the residence halls, and also to the people attending summer conferences and institutes. The Service Center has done its part, too, in keeping prices stable during a time when there are increases almost everywhere. Next Fall, for the FOURTH CONSECUTIVE YEAR,, linen contracts for residence hall students will remain at $28 for the entire academic year. THE FACT THAT UB IS THE ONLY SUNY CAMPUS THAT DOES NOT HAVE MANDATORY BOARD CONTRACTS FOR RESIDENT STUDENTS. The FSA Board of Directors recently re-instituted an unlimited “seconds” policy, at the request of the Student Association, for the balance of this semester. The additional cost of this service will be carefully measured, and every effort will be made to continue it next year, although this would obviously have an effect on prices. Oh the “cash” Food Service side, you can see from the below that the FSA Food Serivce is still your comparison price food It’s even cheaper (to students only) if you buy buy. best food coupon books, available at most Food Service locations.

The objectives of this centralization were a net decrease in total cost of providing accounting services, with an improvement in both the quality and quantity of these services. Although the operation is having “growing pains”, these objectives are being met to some degree, and hopes are high for the future. In addition to the direct effect of centralizing the accounting function for the Auxiliary Service Enterprises, the consolidation had the very beneficial (and planned) side effect of freeing up most of the mezzanine in the Bookstore. This area is now being used for book display. 1.10 1.25 NS NS- Not Sold The future for the FSA Auxiliary Service Enterprises will require providing continuing services at the Main Street and Ridge Lea Campuses and, perhaps more significantly, avast expansion of services to the Amherst Campus. You already know that these services are now being provided at the two existing Amherst buildings, namely, the Governors’ Residence Halls and the Law School. Next September, jf all goes according to plan, we will see at least a partial opening of the EUicott Complex. (It has been said that the inside square footage of the Ellicott Complex will be, when it is completed, equal to the total area of the entire SUNY Fredonia Campus!) The FSA Enterprises will play an important part in the total educational function of the Ellicott Complex and, of course, the entire Amherst Campus as it continues to unfold, by providing those necessary support services that are its only reason for being. It is indeed exciting to look forward to this new development in the history of the State University of New York at Buffalo.

They are exercises, obviousl/, in balance and grace (the exercises in this light are very dose to dance) but they are also symbolic for the search for wholeness, for unity that one find* in Taoist thought. The American Contemporary Theatre has used the Ta’i Chi as the structure for their environmental theater piece, Purge, and, except for other work I’ve seen at the American Contemporary Theatre, the piece is quite unlike any other theater production I’ve seen. Under the direction of Joseph Dunn and Iija Koljonen, Purge represents a new movement in theater: away from the simple casualties of conventional “plot” plays, away from the easy messages implied by most theater “events” (war is bad, spontaneity is good, etc.) and farthest away from the simply surreal imagery of those dadaist presentations where language and thought is reduced to free association and nightmare. jaded.

Like a cryptanal> was bent upon decoding. furiously noted light intensities, colors, sounds and repetitions of sound, odd words, repeated movements and passes in the Ta’i Chi cycle. I found myself giving way, though, midway, to the rare beauty and austerity of the piece itself. Purge is an extraordinary battering of sound (the electronic score by Bruce Eaton is one of the most interesting and ambitious uses of electronic music I’ve heard) and light and dance. I began to realize that the piece is a truly organic process. I mean that the piece is its meaning, that the analytical and evaluative faculties can only come into significant play after repeated viewings. There are certain novels, poems, and pieces of music that — you read or hear and do not understand or understand completely but intuitively respect. You re-read, listen again, perhaps do some research. The poem may be difficult, but its difficulty becomes engrained, it is a difficulty that must be lived with and hopefully understood. Purge is a theater piece of this sort. The theater is a sort of vulgar nothing really hybrid now serious or difficult seems to be happening.

Laing-Antonin Artaud matrix, Indian blood presented sanctifications or Hopi birth rituals only because they were “theatrical”), rather it is ' an attempt at purification itself. The movement upward toward integration, purification and stillness is at the center of this work, it is the work itself. The audience does not only witness, it is placed in direct relationship to the process new definitions are needed for the kind of viewing and listening that are involved in perceiving the work. A good deal of the piece (like the ACT’s presentation and adaptation of Beckett’s The Unnameable two years ago) is performed in darkness. Lights function not as illumination but as significant process in themselves. Sound, too, is not called upon to complement or explain the action (as in more conventional plays where birds twitter outside as a character wakes up to start the day) but rather sound functions in its own, rather complicated system of cycles and modulations. 1 cannot pretend to understand completely what the work is about. The experience of viewing Purge is rich, dense and troubling. The Unnameable presented similar frustrations to the faculties of comprehension, but in that piece one had the Beckett book js background and backbone. This piece is more difficult and finally, I think, more satisfying. if, FILMED IN TODD AO 35- TECHNICOLOR* A NATIONAL GENERAL PICTURES RELEASE ® — April 27 - A funny thing happened to KID BLUE on the way the Robbery He missed the boat and the train....and the stage coach...and the bank. to tJUAB Literary Arts Committee - He was a good kid, but a rotten bandit! featuring Dennis Hopper-Warren Oates, Ben Johnson and Peter Boyle ************ ***************** April 26 - 27 Conference Theatre •Midnite Show# Spiritual center The Ta’i Chi, my inadequate research tells me, is about process itself, the body’s fitting into a process it cannot completely understand but can learn to flow with.

The sounds we have heard from the Black Student Union and the WNYPIRG earlier this week is the m«sf vibrant, "drganized and factually-oriented attack on athletics in a long time, but basically tt is the same tune we have been hearing for years. Through it aU, athletics has survived. Perhaps because Legislature would do of the fear that without it, (he a fees, student nebulous and grossly mandatory away with unfair threat that ideally should not be a factor. Perhaps athletics has survived because attached to it, and run by many of the same personnel, are the rightfully untouchable budget lines for intramurals and recreation, undoubtedly the most popular activities bn campus. It is possible that the powers that be (namely the Student Association officials) arc reading student opinion through toward athletics ■ ->whi$ were highly favorable or through the fact that some of the receive widespread student particular, teams, hockey in concept of benefits for the Incidentally, support. spectators is virtually ignored by the recent critics of intercollegiate athletics. In reality, it is impossible to judge how students (I mean all or even a majority of students) feel about athletics, or about any other activity, for that matter. The - extent of honest apathy among our student body makes it improper for any group to claim that students want them funded any more than anything else. As Warren Breisblatt, chairman of the Student Athletic Review Board, is quick to point out in reference to the proposed allotment to athletics: ‘This is an austerity budget.” Necessary increases in women’s programs and recreation (to fund the staffing of the proposed Amherst athletic bubble, for which certain SA officials are now lobbying in Albany), as well as inflation. actually make this budget far tighter than last year’s. The fact that athletics is feeling the pinch as much as other areas is evidenced by the fact that such things as training tables, pre-game meals, most of the fixed equipment, several clubs as well as the budget line for fencing coaches, have all been cut. (The last cut forces the School of Health Education to hire a Physical Education teacher who can also coach fencing. One may argue that some of these slashed items should never have been budgeted in the first place, but the fact remains that they have been dropped for the first time this year. Despite all of this, intercollegiate athletics is getting to be an increasingly expensive proposition, and one that students may not much longer be able to afford at least not in the style to which we have become accustomed. As a mere question of priority, organizations like CAC and WNYPIRG may warrant a bigger slice of the pie. Ironically, Breisblatt is lobbying with the State Legislature for a bill calling for the State to fund — '\-W ; f j that it permit will it on the grounds justifying intramurals, st udent government tQ more adequately fund r *~- $60,000 burden off the shoulders of the SA. an amount . £ that would solve many of its problems. .. tk .« » *** w that the handwriting is on the wall regarding to intercollegiate athletics: the State Legislature, the only body that can adequately fund these programs, will not. The Administration is helpless to provide any assistance that would lessen the student burden. Even the admissions policy for athletes, which is now stricter than ever, would seriously impair any effort for stepped-up athletic programs, this University never wffl be the appears rt dreams about. It s time we everyone *P° 1 deluding ourselves with the idea that we can move toward hi & ,evel income-offset athletics, and wnh the e idea ******? r can b 5om ethln? we are not 1 are is a SUMY school and it only makes sense, particularly of recent events that we compete on tiiat in the athletically. And level against otiier state schools w ould that be so bad? It would be a lower level than we are at now but one which we could more easily afford, J* , „ ™! * * ~ * - . The future of hockey would still be up in the air, because the SONY athletic conference does not compete in hockey. However, it would mean a playing conference for those sports in which SUNY schools do compete, and that is always exciting. Many of our students are big sports fans and want to identify with schools like UCLA and Ohio State, but without State funding and grant-in-aid, it is impossible. It may just be possible that our students would more readily identify with the other SUNY schools than that’vast middleground in which our programs are presently trapped. Baseball Mountaineers hosted in 3-game showdown Resuming their home schedule, the baseball Bulls will play host to West Virginia in a three-game series this weekend featuring the battle of playoff contenders. The Mountaineers, who annually bid for the District II Tournament, have not been selected to the playoffs in the past few seasons for several reasons. West Virginia, 8-9 thus far this year, comes to Buffalo following a 7-3 loss at Pittsburgh last week. The Bulls were slated to face the Panthers at home on Tuesday, but rain intervened and forced cancellation of the twinbill. The Mountaineers returned their top three starting pitchers from last year’s squad, and they all figure to start against Buffalo. Lefthander Dan Dolphin, who has a 1.33 ERA in 51 innings of work this season and a 6-2 record, could match up against Bull ace Jim Riedel in a classic pitching duel this afternoon. Righthanders Brad Haines and Tom Whitecotton may draw tomorrow’s starting assignments for West Virginia, opposing Buffalo southpaws John Buszka and Jim Niewczyk. The Mountaineers’ hitting attack started the season slowly. West Virginia was hitting only 199 after compiling a 2-4 record on their southern trip. However, >ENERAL AUTO REPAIRS 37-3799/836-683' Tune-ups Brakes Shocks Engine Overhauls • Minor Body Work Satisfaction Guaranteed Free Estimates Cheap - Question of impeachment raised the Mountaineers’ pitching staff was holding their opponents in check, allowing a batting average of only .193. Buffalo second baseman Rich Magliazzo was ranked 14th in the nation in hitting, according to the most recent release from the national collegiate sports service. Magliazzo, who hits third in the Buffalo lineup, was batting .403, with 20 runs scored in 22 contests. Third baseman, Gary Montour and catcher Gary Cox were also clubbing enemy pitching recently, Montour batting .352 and Cox at a .338 clip. The Niagara Frontier Chapter of the Civil Liberties Union will discuss the entire question of the impeachment of President Nixon, as well as the alternatives and the necessities for quick and decisive action on the problem.

Refershments will be served and the public is invited to participate in the ensuing discussions. The Niagara Frontier Chapter is seeking to interest students in the groups activities and attempting to mobilize public sentiment on the question of impeachment and the other pressing issues of the day.

For Friday, 26 April 1974 The Spectrum Page twenty-one . . �»/' w Basketball by Dave Hnath Spectrum Staff Writer —■ Facing a 25-game schedule featuring fifteen NCAA Division I foes, head basketball coach Leo Richardson has signed two new faces for 1974-75, with one in the wings. However, Richardson has yet to sign the big man the Bulls sorely lacked last season. Moving in the local junior college circuits, Richardson has recruited Nate Evans, a 6-ft.-3-inch guard from Niagara Community College, who has signed a letter of intent to enroll at Buffalo. Jeff Baker, who has also signed, is presently stationed at the Niagara Falls Air Force Base. Baker, 6-ft.-5-inches, will enter school as a 20-year-old freshman, and Richardson feels both his maturity and size (as a guard) could be the key to the Bulls’ fortunes next year. Completing the trio of early signces is Nathan Revels, a junior college transfer from Wharton County Junior College in Texas. Revels, out of Andrew Jackson High School in New York City, is a 6-ft.-4$4-inch forward-guard, and adds to the overall size and experience Richardson is seeking to blend with this year’s returnees. “I think the three that we’ve signed will give us the maturity we’re looking for,” remarked Richardson. “We expect these young men to be in contention for a starting position. The returning players know it’s going to be difficult for any of our [returning] kids to make it next year,” Richardson added. Slayton, both 6-ft.-6-inches, finished the season for the Bulls. “With the three boys we’re got coming in and the boys we’ve got coming back, if we can sign a big man, we’ll have the nucleus for a good team, assessed Richardson. Heading up Richardson’s list are Jerry Black and Scott Bobysude, both of whom will be guests of the Bulls this weekend. Black is a 6-ft.-10-inch center from Parker High School in Chicago, and Bobysude is a 6-ft.-7-inch forward-center hailing from DePage Junior College (also in Chicago). Highlighting the Bulls 25-gamc schedule for 1974.75 w j|i be early season contests with Syracuse season opener) and Niagara at home, and away at Fairleigh-Dickinson and Long Island U.

No. 78 - The bpECTi\u M Wednesday, 24 April 1974 State University of New York at Buffalo Two SA budget hearings are disrupted by minority student demandsfor more money by Larry Kraftowitz Campus Editor Disruptions flared up again yesterday at the Student Assembly budget hearings when members of various minority groups angered at being slated for a budget well below their combined request of $88,000 took over the hearings and forced them to be recessed for the second straight day. — — The minority students seized control of the meeting after the Assembly rejected a motion to postpone the hearings until the Student Association published an audit of its past spending. When Black Student Union (BSU) President Larry Williams repeated his assertion that “all we want is our money every dime the minority students put in, we want back,” and minority students began monopolizing the front of the Assembly floor, Assembly chairman Scott Salimando recessed the meeting until 4 p.m. today. Meanwhile, President Robert Ketter pledged early yesterday that shculd the meeting “be by the same disrupted individuals” who disrupted Monday’s meeting, “they will be subject to immediate suspension from the University pending a hearing before the Hearing Committee on the Maintenance of Public Order.” — Stood op tables Prior to yesterday’s meeting, depositions were filed with Dr. Ketter against Mr. Williams, Hugh Bassette, Edward Gamble and one other minority student for their alleged disruption of Monday’s Assembly meeting, in which students stood on tables and shcuted, preventing the meeting from even beginning. Tension surrounded Haas Lounge from the meeting’s outset, when a sizable contingent of minority students planted themselves in front of the overflowing Assembly. As soon as the meeting began, WNYPIRG director Paul Mones, representing a loose coalition of CAC, WNYPIRG and minority group students opposed to the budget, was allowed to speak for 15 minutes. Bitter 4hat the SA Finance Committee has drawn up the budgets with a “warped set of priorities,” Mr. Mones ran through each budget, sharply criticizing the large Athletic Department allocation. “$182,000 has been for intercollegiate allocated athletics, where only 283 men and 75 women students are involved,” he asserted. The crew and hockey teams, “with a combined total of 58 students,” were receiving $19,000, Mr. Mones charged, while the total allocation for campus-wide health care services was $18,000. White a few Assembly members tried to rule Mr. Mones and another spokesman out of order, he continued to list the appropriations of varsity teams. Mr. Mones questioned why $8,000 had been slated for the Athletic Department’s promotional expenses, while only $700 would be given to Community Action Corps (CAC). “It’s time we took a good, hard look at the budget,” Mr. Mones told the Assembly. “Why have we not seen an audit for the last four years?” he asked. “Unless that audit is published and we find out where the money went to, we don’t want September to come for this University,” Mr. Mones asserted. When several people later accused the SA of mishandling funds. Treasurer Sal Napoli explained that the loss of SA’s reserve fund, an “inflationary trend of 15%, and an increase in the number of groups n SA’s fiscal leeway. Responding to Mr. Napoli’s claim that the reserve was used “to overcome the running deficit of the past three years, Mr. Williams said: “What he we had to pay really means is for the stealing of the last three — years.” Budget delay rejected Stressing the need for budgets to be passed by May 15, Mr. Napoli urged the Assembly to review them through the normal procedures, promising that an audit would be ready within two weeks. After he began reading the budgets listed under Special Projects, a member of the Assembly moved that the budgets be considered one at a time, or in seriatum. Mr. Napoli accepted the motion, but WNYPIRG member Gary Schwartz moved to “postpone the hearings indefinitely until an audit was undertaken.” After further debate mostly out of order the Assembly, by a vote of 29-12-1, rejected the motion to table “all budgets and considerations of budgets until an audit was published in accordance with the laws of New York State.” - - —continued on page 14 Buckley in Haas Lounge Dissatisfaction among listener by Richard Korman Contributing Editor “What concerns me is not the vulgarity or total lack of taste, but the fact that something that is deeply disruptive and deeply offensive should be published in something funded out of mandatory contributions.” This was Senator James L. Buckley’s (R—C, N.Y.) justification for supporting the State Senate bill which would prohibit the use of mandatory fees for student newspapers, as he spoke to a large gathering of students in Haas Lounge Monday afternoon. With his typically deliberate New England inflection, Mr. Buckley fielded questions ranging from Watergate to abortion, and was greeted by a mixture of angry shouts and applause. Much of the audience and many of the seemed dissatisfied, though somewhat entertained, with Mr. Buckley’s admittedly conservative questioners views. Supporting views they detest Quoting Thomas Jefferson as a “reasonable authority on the First Amendment and the nature of freedom of speech, Senator Buckley said “to force people to support the propagation of views that they detest is both sinful and unjust.” Asked that since there are student referendums on to determine whether there shall be mandatory student fees, and that priorities are expressed through elected representatives in student governments, isn’t the State Senate Bill “an attempt to legislate what state campuses - students want, an intrusion censorship,” Mr, Buckley replied: by governor “There are whole areas as recognized Constitution where sheer majorities don’t minorities of their rights. The fact that a m; students vote that funds will be contributed willy publication, then creates a situation where by vote that publication can print things with tot. totally violative of community harmony, totally of minority groups within the student body.” “I submit that if there were some anti-semii the outrage would be heard from here to th< Buckley added. Nixon should resign “I do still feel that President Nixon shouli Mr. Buckley declared, repeating his original cai President’s departure which shocked the politii last month. “We have seen an unprecendented coi confidence between the people of the United St their President,” he explained, “which has result destruction of moral authority and respect for tl the credibility that is essential to the disci Presidential responsibility.” “I further feel that neither the failure of the 1 impeach or the failure of the Senate to convii restore to the President that bond that is requii said.

O %/ ■ C/ i I . . „ the drive to repea i the Consensual Sodomy Law include the Lutheran the National Federation of Priests Coudcil. _ '* by Barry Ginsberg Spectrum Staff Writer The National Gay Task Force (NGTF) has been circulating a petition throughout New York State demhn41ng the “repeal of the Consensual Sodomy Law” (N.Y. Penal Code No. 130.38). The Buffalo Gay Liberation Front started soliciting signatures for the petition in Norton Hall’s center lounge about a month ago. They have also canvassed Buffalo in search of supporters, according to the Front’s President, Alan Ellis. The effort to repeal the Consensual Sodomy Law is a turning point in the struggle to achieve gay civil rights. During the past five years unsuccessful attempts have been made to get gay civil rights legislated by the state government'as well as by the New York City Council. These attempts failed because the legislators reasoned: “Sodomy is illegal; homosexuals preform sodomous acts; therefore homosexuals are criminals. How can we give criminals civil rights?” Mr. Ellis explained. Public indifference Apparently the reasoning has been very persuasive. According to Nath Rockhill of the NGTF, only once in the last four years has a gay civil rights bill even come out of committee. On that occasion, the bill was eventually defeated in the State Assembly "by not more than twelve votes” in a roll call vote after it had passed by a voice vote. Ms. Rockhill called this incident a "tremendous victory.” The main problem, Ms. Rockhill feels, is “massive public indifference.” She expressed hopes the petition will stimulate public interest and, in turn, “get the legislature moving.” Judeao-Christian standards “There are really two issues involved,” Ms. Rockhill observed. The immediate goal is to repeal the Consensual Sodomy Law; but this, she explained, is only the first step towards achieving gay civil rights. the Unitarian Universalist Association, and the Nationah .

The Committee on Criminal Courts, Law and The problem is in the “nature of the harassment Procedure of the New York City Bar Association in April which the Consensual Sodomy Law justifies,” Ms. Rockhill 1973 approved and urged the adoption of four bills said. However, she noted there are “a substantial number sponsored by State Senators Caliber and Goodman and of prosecutions” under the law.

I believe freedom With these words, is defended.” [such] academic Georgy Hochfield, the new Faculty-Senate Chairman-elect, defended the Senate against the cynicism he feels has been directed toward that body. “Many faculty sneer at the reality of its power and the value of its decisions,” Dr. Hochfield maintained. “Despite its drawbacks, the Senate is the primary instrument for the faculty to make its will known in the University.” During his tenure as chairman, Dr. Hochfield hopes to engage the interests of the “best faculty on campus” to make the Senate an active participant in the creation of academic policy. Verbal chairman Dr. Hochfield plans to “broadcast” his own opinions, which he termed “easily identifiable,” because he finds it "painful to sit through meetings in which participation in debate is slight.” He also wants to see the Senate take the lead in looking for ways of reforming education by making it “more adequate to the demands of modern life, and more pleasurable and rewarding for students.” According to Dr. Hochfield, “students rarely have good words to say about their experience at Buffalo.” Because he believes undergraduate education is presently unsatisfying, Dr. Hochfield said the Faculty-Senate must find the reasons for the dissatisfaction and then turn its attention to undergraduate education reform. Although Dr. Hochfield could not personally pinpoint the causes of the apparent student restlessness and boredom, he sensed that the learning experiences were “too fragmented, impersonal, and did not engage the curiosity and intellectual aspirations of the students in a serious way.” One possible alternative he suggested was offering a program similar to that of a liberal arts college. An active member of Vico College which was founded on that basis, Dr. Hochfield explained that with this type of arrangement, the work is not so departmentalized. Instead, faculty members from different departments collaborate in teaching a common body of material. Dr. Hochfield firmly believes students should be primarily concerned with obtaining a quality education. For this reason, he opposes direct student participation in University governance. ‘The problems of governance and sitting on committees are irrelevant to learning and should not be a major activity of students,” Dr. Hochfield stressed. However, he also feels student opinions on all matters affecting their education should be publicized. He George Hochfield therefore favors the appointment of two non-voting students to the Presidential Review Board on Tenure as long as their status remains ‘non-voting’. In addition, he supports teacher evaluations and student participation in tenure decisions on the departmental level. Educational disaster Touching upon more specific academic issues, Dr. Hochfield called the Colleges “an educational disaster,” for the most part, asserting that they must be thoroughly reformed and put to “good educational use.” “The Colleges are countercultural backwater: little groups clinging to the pieties and styles of the Ws. They no longer have any intellectual vitality,” he said. SASU Three representatives to be elected today to student lobby Students will have their chance today to elect to. the Student Association of the •State University (SASU) and the statewide Student Assembly. Elections will be held today for the three open positions. SASU, Inc., a statewide lobbying group formed in 1970, lobbies for legislation favorable to students in the SUNY system as well as providing a wide variety of other services. These include Purchase Power, a discount buying plan, SASU news service, and special travel and insurance programs. SASU led the lobbying effort last week in Albany against the bill to ban student fees from funding student newspapers. The statewide Student Assembly is an advisory body representing students from all SUNY campuses and is officially recognized as representative by the SUNY Central Administration. Each campus determines whether its Representatives to SASU shall also represent the ichool in the Student Assembly. This University decided last year that they should, a Of this University’s six SASU delegates are proportional to the size of the one is from Millard Fillmore College, one ichool), ' _ from the Graduate Student Association (GSA) and one, the Student Association (SA) President, serves ex officio. A constitutional amendment was recently proposed that would make the SA National Affairs Coordinator another ex officio member. The candidates The candidates, in the order that they will appear on the ballot are: Barbara Ranagan, Janice Garver, Michele Smith, Edward Rosenfeld, William Atchley, David Marion, Andrew Walle, John Sullivan and Charles Goldberg. Also on the ballot will be a proposal to change the time for spring vacation to coincide with the Easter and Passover holidays. Proponents of the change argue that it will allow students to see their friends over vacation. Faculty polled for their reactions have proved mostly indifferent, though some with school-aged children favor the change so they can spend time with their families. No one has strongly opposed the change. SA will not take an official position on the issue, though it circulated petitions to test student response. Because he feels' the “University is not a place for self-proclaimed Or would-be professors,” Dr. HochfieM said only qualified people who have demonstrated “visible accomplishments” in such fields as the arts, science, business and public affairs, should be allowed to teach. He charged that many of the current College faculty are “parasites in the University” who wish to live in the University community and cam money without meeting University standards. College reform “The fact that you don’t adopt the posture of a conventional clasroom doesn’t mean you are doing something important,” Dr. Hochfield said. His plans for College reform include a much more active faculty role. “The Colleges can only acquire genuine intellectual value when the faculty become primarily responsible for them,” he emphasized. He thinks groups of faculty should initiate and establish new Colleges with the help of interested and competent students. Dr. Hochfield said the Faculty-Senate should give the issue of grading matter more serious thought. The Senate resolution, passed at the end of March, to leave the option of plus/minus up to the individual instructors was a hasty decision, insisted Dr. Hochfield, and he felt President Ketter presented reasonable criticisms in vetoing it. Dr. Hochfield stressed the need for grading to be universal; for one system to operate throughout the University. He said grades are only very crude, shorthand forms of evaluation, used as credentials for further rewards. If the question is called again in the Senate, he would vote to retain the present system. Inspirations Dr. Hochfield’s own involvement in the Faculty-Senate was influenced by two events in his academic career which made him realize that “faculty must play an important public role in the government of a university.” The first took place at Ohio State University, where he saw a faculty of “1700 adult professors bullied and rendered impotent by a determined president in a case involving freedom of speech of campus.” “I saw my elders frightened by the threat of authority. 1 will not serve on a faculty where such humiliation occurs,” Dr. Hochfield declared. The “Feinberg Oath” was his second stimulation. In the early 1960’s, all faculty and state employees were required to sign a non-communist affidavit. Five professors, including Dr. Hochfield, refused to sign the certificate at this University and their action was upheld by the Supreme Court in 1967. Dr. Hochfield viewed this case as important in “staking out the legal limits of academic freedom" and vowed to remain outspoken on all crucial academic matters.

Page three �A rigorous but career that’s not 9-to-S Newspapers and fees Amended bill allows students their choice The bill that would ban mandatory student fees from funding State and City University student newspapers has been amended, and may still be withdrawn pending a compromise. Originally the bill, introduced by State Senator John Marchi (R., Westchester),, would have amended the State Education Law to prohibit the use of student fees for student newspapers on state campuses. In its amended form, the bill states that “unless the student responsible for the fee has consented in writing to such use,” his fee that would have gone toward his school’s student newspaper would be refunded, explained a spokesman for Senator Marchi’s office. In other words, if the amended bill became law, there would probably be a check-off box on the tuition bill through which students could indicate whether or not they wanted a portion of their fee used for student newspapers. by Dene Dube Senator Marchi’s office said it is now waiting to hear from CCNY students as to how the school plans to prevent these abuses from ever happening again. Peter Grad, associate editor of the CCNY newspaper, the Observation Post, said that “a letter has already been written stating, in effect, what the college’s actions will be but it has not been sent to Senator Marchi yet.” “As a gesture,” continued Mr. Grad, “the (CCNY] Student Senate has established a review board of newspapers which would provide a mechanism for students to voice their views.” Spectrum Staff Writer Within the past decade, law has become an increasingly popular profession for women, indicated by a 900 per cent increase in women attending It American Bar Association-accredited law schools. Judith is this transition that brought Dean-elect Younger of Syracuse Law School to speak at this University Saturday on “Women and the Legal Profession.” Dr. Younger is the first woman to be elected dean of a law school in New York State. During a panel discussion, several questions concerning admission, attendance, and alternative's to law school. Jerome Fink, pre-law advisor at this University, recommended a “rigorous, arose s •• a para-legal career without ‘Tirst exhausting every other possibility.” She urged students to continue taking the LSATs and persist in applying to law schools until they are accepted. Ms. Younger described three stages of her career that show “a woman who chooses law for a career still has to make her way in a man’s field.” The first stage was during her third year of law school, when “I made a determined attempt to prove I was just like a man.” It was during this stage that the deans at New York University Law School advised “trusts and estates” as a good field because, Ms. Younger explained, “there are no deadlines to meet, no emergencies, and all the clients are dead.” She continued to pursue a federal clerkship which she received despite the dissuasions “from my chauvinistic deans and colleagues.” Anyone interested in the legal profession should not expect it to be a nine-to-five job, she noted. Rather, the individual should be aware of the commitment required in law, and expect to work long days similar to the rigorous preparation of law academic undergraduate background,” stressing a diversity of curriculum, before a student applies to law school. He added that 90% of the women applying to law schools can expect to be accepted, at a student CCNY dislikes If although not always to the school of their first, or is upset with something in the second, or third choice.

In this time, he claims he has gained greater clarity of mind, a greater sense of efficiency due to the lack of stress and fatigue his body no.wexperiences, and he feels much more relaxed. Marian Jocose also meditates, and in the four months since she began, she has experienced a “greater sense of balance.” She says she is now emotionally '‘more stable,” and doesn’t fluctuate as much in her moods. Yet Ms. Cocose comments: “It’s not like I walk around blissed-out all the time.” She explains that transcendental meditation has instead given her a better sense of direction in her life. “I’ll attack problems at their source now,” she said. Scientific; validation These remarks are typical of the many practitioners of transcendental meditation (TM), the widely known and widely misunderstood process advocated by the famous Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. The results of the meditation, much of which has now been validated by scientific studies, seem miraculous at first. But, essentially, the meditator undergoes no major overt change in his or her lifestyle, diet or beliefs. What does occur can best be described as a hew found sense of harmony with oneself and one’s surrounding. The key to this goal, is the release of bodily stress and fatigue, which “prevents people from experiencing life,” according to Carey Bayer, a student at the University who now teaches TM. He maintains that meditation “enables the mind to settle down, so the body can relax.” Meditation is usually done twice a day in the morning and evening. At first, extreme fatigue is often felt, due to the releasing of tension which had been accumulating in the time prior to meditation. Four days of personal instruction are required to learn the technique. These sessions last from 1V4 to 2 hours. Two introductory lectures are recommended before the personal instruction. Mr. Bayer remarks that the technique is “something precious,” and therefore it should be done “efficiently and correctly,” and personal instruction is the best way to accomplish this. - mm ISRIICl! 1 DIG The Guitar •17-ISS4 5 june3'july!3 July 22 ~aug 31 Eicefti«u< kills Inm l*f|i Mi sum prtsus; llttrsry 1 ttl« pwMIcjIs, MMTtfi ortv M- week archaeology se- mester combining a dig with Held trigs and credit earning college courses at Tel Aviv Uni- Workshop two summer sessions zverymaa's book ston A unique After one begins meditation, there is no obvious, immediate change. But, Mr. Bayer contends, using recent scientific studies as his evidence, that a “unique physiological response occurs. Once the stress leaves, people become more integrated, more actualized. It’s not like a do or don’t thing.” Most people continue doing whatever activities they did before meditation, “but will enjoy them more,” he advised. When questioned about the use of drugs after meditation, Mr. Bayer replied that often “there is a natural sense of fulfillment arising from meditation, and drugs may not be as enjoyable or necessary as they were before.” For people who continue to use drugs, he said, “the drugs don’t have that meaning they might have had before,” as a means of escape, but rather become a simpler, more pleasurable experience. In spite of frantic reactions by parents, friends and relatives when they first learn of the meditators’ activities, they begin to accept its value once they learn what TM really is, according to Mr. Gayer. “It [TM] is not unrealistic,” he said, “but a practical thing.” Misconceptions about TM range from beliefs that it is a new religious cult, to fears that it is associated with leftist, radical ideologies. Lucia and Joe Pietras also teach TM and they report that the most important part of TM “is not the meditation itself, but what we bring out of it during activity.” Agreeing with this point, Mr. Bayer commented, “Meditation is not for passivity, it rather makes you more effective during activity, by clearing the mind.” Anyone interested in TM is welcome to attend an introductory lecture on the subject, to be held Thursday, April 25, at 8 p.m. in Norton 242, and Friday, April 26, at noon in Norton 334.

The curve of “marital satisfaction,” explained Dr. Harold Feldman, descends to its lowest point when the last child goes off to school. At that stage, the mother, who has worked as a full-time housewife, feels “she is out of a job” and may go through a period of critical reassessment. Her husband may experience similar feelings about work, resenting the notion that he is merely a “money object.” Men want to be accepted for themselves and not the money they earn,” Dr. Feldman warned. Explore lifestyles To avoid the inevitable marital discomfort of later life, the couple should engage in important conversations relating to their future at the onset of the marriage. “Differences in the general lifestyle is what people need to explore,” said Dr. Margaret Feldman. The Feldmans then discussed several alternatives to the family structure, including communal living, which they admitted “was not for everyone.” The traditional families have had to change to meet the conditions of an urban setting and must now find new meanings in their lives, they said.

The exchange agreement, signed April 8th between Dr. Boyer and the Soviet Education Ministry’s Lev Borisovich Bazhnov, calls for ten Soviet undergraduates to study at SUNY at Albany and ten American students to study at the Moscow Institute of Foreign Languages. The program will begin this coming fall. The ten Americans will be chosen primarily from 2500 students studying Russian and Russian literature at the Albany, Binghamton, Buffalo, New Paltz, Oswego and Stony Brook campuses. Selection meeting A committee meeting will be held April 26 in which every campus-who has applicants will have a representative present to select students for the exchange program. The name of a university supervisor to accompany the students will also be announced at that meeting. The only qualifications necessary are three years of college credit in Russian and high overall scholarship. Priority in selection will be given to SUNY students, but applications will be accepted from other institutions in the state. However, Mr. Charleton of SUNY Public Relations said: “I will be very surprised if any of the first group of ten to go Gustav are from outside SUNY institutions.” Interest was first generated by SUNY last spring when deputy minister Nikolai Sofinski visited the U5. and announced that the Soviet Union was interested in an undergraduate exchange program. The State University of New York jumped at the opportunity and was chosen by the Soviets chiefly because of its own initiative. Children's theater helped Negotiations with the Soviet Education Ministry were helped along by the SUNY at Albany Children’s Theater Troupe. Six performances of The Wizard of Oz were presented for more than 6000 Russian children and adults at the Children’s Theater in Moscow. The Troupe had a tremendous reception in Russia, and received repeated standing ovations. Mr. Charleton said the students helped set a friendly atmosphere for exchange planning discussions. The ten American students will live in orte of three hostels for foreign students attending Moscow’s Maurice Thorez Language Institute, commonly known as the Moscow State Institute of Foreign Languages. Next year, the Soviet students will be studying at the Albany campus, but Chancellor Boyer hopes Soviet students will be able to study at other branches of the State University in future semesters. Mr. Charleton said there have already been at least 30 applications submitted for the exchange program. He added that at least four applications have been from the State University of Buffalo. will reproduce almost anything. 355 Norton Hall — eight cents a THE RECORD RUNNER HAS THE PRIME CUTS!!!

Athletics also gets $25,000 for "general admirtistration" and $8000 for "promotion." Baseball, basketball and hockey are spectator sports. But how many of the other teams attract even a handful of the students who are supporting them? How can SA justify a $40,000 budget for an 18-member hockey team when the Day Care Center gets $1000 and campus-wide health care gets only $18,000? Intercollegiate sports are fine, but students have to make a decision as to whether they can which benefit a relative afford to subsidize varsity teams with almost one-quarter of a million dollars when few social service organizations are cut to the bone. Some have argued that the State Legislature will abolish the mandatory student fee if intercollegiate athletics are slashed. This danger is exaggerated; and what good is a mandatory fee if one-third of it must automatically go to teams which students don't want to support? Whenever the athletic budget faces possible slashes, the coaches annually threaten to close Clark Gym. But this pressure tactic is as bad as standing on Assembly tables, and must be resisted. We should either concentrate on upgrading the quality of the most popular sports teams, or stop sinking thousands into ventures which are losing student support. Groups such as CAC, WNYPIRG, minority organizations, clubs, and health care deserve top priority because they benefit the majority of students on this campus. So do intramural sports.

Wednesday, 24 April 1974 . - - and they must be funded at a sensible level which students await the two-day delay if they are not to be surrendered to the Executive Committee this summer. Interest groups must also realize two things: that no matter how much money they deserve, every item in their budget must be justified, to both SA and a veto-capable Administration; and that every budget must be passed democratically by a vote of the Student Assembly. Coercion is no substitute. Racial tension has naturally been running high in Haas Lounge for the last two days. But the Assembly's votes can change the warped priorities of the proposed SA budget. Its members might be convinced by persuasive argument or the demonstrated need for money, but not by unilateral demands for a blank check. We hope today's third attempt at considering budgets can be hard-fought in a civilized manner. J ' The budget that the Student Assembly has failed to consider after two days of disrupted meetings is a package of warped priorities. But the pressure tactics used to disrupt those two meetings were an attempt at coercion and cannot be condoned. The Assembly failed to get past page one on the budgets because a coalition of minority students stood on tables on Monday and monopolized the floor yesterday to support their demands for more money. Basically, minority students feel their $67 fee is subsidizing white-oriented activities which do not benefit them. In a very real sense, they are right. But if each ethnic group agreed to fund only activities which benefited their members, all non-ethnic campus services (like health care) would collapse. However, the fact that white-oriented services do not benefit most minority students must be considered when weighing their budgets. Yesterday's demand that all minority group budgets be passed as one lump sum, though, is unfair because it removes any financial accountability to SA as to how the money is spent, and because some smaller minority organizations might get shafted in the process. But the proposed budget's warped funding priorities is in no way limited to minority group organizations. WNYPIRG, the valuable consumer group, is slated for only $13,000, far short of the $25,000 it needs to function at an effective level and join state-wide NYPIRG. The Day Care Center is slated for a token $1000 or so. Community Action Corps, probably the most valuable group on campus, is budgeted for only $20,000. When one considers that SA is allocating a total of $800,000, where is the rest of the students' money going? It is going to intercollegiate athletics. Divorcing the intramural and recreational funds that benefit all students, $182,000 is being spent on about 300 men and 75 women participants in the varsity sports. While Sub-Board health care, which benefits 14,000 students, is budgeted for $18,000, the crew and wrestling teams, which involve 58 students and few spectators, is slated for $19,000.

W. Navero Hot water: 5 cents To the Editor. Anyone who has ever sat down with an old-timer and has listened to his nostalgic remembrances of nickelodeons, five-cent beers, and half dime movies, will appreciate what is happening on our campus today. From those wonderful who gave you the $.16 cup of coffee, the 2 ounce hamburger, and the $1.50 greasy hot plate, Food Service proudly presents: the nickel cup of HOT WA TER It happened on the cafeteria express line today The sign on the cash register read: “Hot water $.05.” When I asked about this situation, the woman said, ‘That’s right, buddy!” It seems that some students who can’t afford the high prices have been bringing their own tea bags and instant coffee. When Food Service learned about this dilemma, they decided to help. They say that it covers the cost of the paper cup, but when 1 asked how much the Water cost in a china cup, they said, $.05!” “That’s right So the moral to the story is simple. If any of my fellow “broke” students have any bright ideas about !! - - to save money, don’t tell “non-profit” organizations such as Food Service about it. JSUresponds To the Editor. I must express my surprise, shock and annoyance at the mistakes Mr. Colucci made in his analysis of current goings on in SA, particularly in relation to finance and JSU’s role.in SA (April 22>. Ms. Friedler is not the president of JSU, she is merely an SA representative who works for the JSU. From the article, one would assume that the JSU was asking for a $2000 cut in allocation, (from $8000 to $60001, while increasing generated income allowance by 450% (from $1900 to $9000). While this might be desirable, theoretically, the Jewish Student Union is not and never has been intended to be a strictly profit-making organization. Our purpose is to reach out to those interested in Jewish Culture and Heritage, and to stimulate further interest in it through a wide and varied program of Folkdancing, Speakers (e g. Gershon Shakid, I.B. Singer) Concerts (Jo Amar, the Parvarim), movies, Jewish Art Festivals, and similar activities. In order to stimulate $9000 in addition to the allegedly allocated $6000, it would he necessary to charge a rather large admission fee, thus discouraging student participation in these activities, defeating their purpose. Mr. Cotucci confused the amount that we asked for ($ 15,000) with the amount that the SA is “rumored” to have allocated to us ($6109). (The Finance committee has not formally presented the Student Assembly with its recommendations.) The JSU receives such a small amount of coverage in The Spectrum that accuracy in reporting is essential. Misleading or false information is far more damaging than none at all. I hope that Mr. Colucci, will, in the future, ekeft a little more care in checking the facts for his news analyses, and would be so kind as to retract any erroneous statements made in the article.

Howie Kurtz — To the Editor Therefore, the Political Science Dept, will not permit Wednesday, 24 April 1974 Editor-in-Chief Grad hands tied Janis Cromer Managing Editor Business Manager Dave Simon Asst. Business Manager Shayne O'Neill Advertising Manager Gerry McKeen Production Supervisor Joel Altsman — — — first-year grad students to teach introductory courses. Dr. Murdock also states that past student-initiated evaluations of new graduate students have demonstrated their ineffectiveness at teaching freshmen. The reason past evaluations of grad students have been poor is that most of the time the grad - student has had his hands tied by his professor. The grad student becomes more like a technician than a teacher. I’m sure most freshmen would rather have their lab or discussion taught by a grad student who has some degree of sympathy than a more experienced grad student or professor who is so tied up in his research that he has no time for the students. Taking graduate level courses does not make a better teacher for an introductory class. Perhaps Dr. Murdock is really worried that a new grad student can replace some of the ineffective professors in his dept, and do a better job. A Ian Slorna 120 TA Biology — Asst. Jay Boyar .

It was all conditioning.” “Now, Mr. Schreck, you said it was all conditioning. Would you say that conditioning for the Bulls could be improved by the Metropolitan Championships and the Dad Vail National Championships,” asked Uhl. Bull crew Trying to improve conditioning by Steve Lustig Spectrum Staff Writer The next case on the docket is the Buffalo crew, defendant vs. the Buffalo State crew, plaintiff. “We, the defense, wish to show that despite three successive losses to the Buffalo State Bengals, the Bulb should not be counted out of the Metropolitan Championships and the Dad Vail National Championships,” defense attorney Bob Uhl (Buffalo crew coach) said. Evidence from Saturday’s Buffalo State Invitational was then presented. Referee Charlie Fries was asked; “Were you present at the last regatta, The Buffalo State Invitational, held last Saturday at The West Side Rowing Club?” Fries responded in the affirmative. “Would you then describe what you saw, Mr. Fries,” added Jim Schaab, the prosecutor. “There were four squads in the varsity race, Buffalo State, Buffalo, Canisius, and Mercyhurst. It was a real close race for the first S00 meters; it was neck and neck. Everybody got off to a good start and there wasa’t more than half a length separating the four boats,” the referee continued. “Then what happened, Mr. Fries?” asked Schaab. “At about the S00 meter point, Buffalo State and Canisius started to pull away. Buffalo State was really in good form and they went from one-half length lead at the Peace Bridge to win by one length over the Griffins.” “And where was die Buffalo squad, Mr. Fries?” Schaab inquired. Mr. Fries responded by noting that they trailed Buffalo State by three lengths, finishing last of the four boats. Mr. Fries was then excused from further questioning. “Objection!” the prosecutor shouted. “This calls for an opinion by the witness.” Continuing, Mr. Schreck stated; “That’s speculative. I guess well know better after the championships.” Prosecutor Jim Schaab stepped forward. “Mr. Schreck, would conditioning be able to account for three lengths between the squads?” asked the prosecutor: “I really can’t say. All I know is that one boat didn’t look any better than another.” Schreck surmised. In a final note Schaab noted the victory of the Buffalo State junior varsity boat over the Fordham and Buffalo boats. The jury is still out with the decision. The verdict may be presented after this Saturday’s regatta at The Mercyhurst Invitational where the Bulls and Bengals will clash again. Schreck concurs Defense attorney Bob Uhl stepped forward. “The defense would like to call it’s first witness, Mr. Bob Schreck [driver of the referee’s boat],” stated Uhl. sports shorts . Captain John Stranges was named as the hockey Bulls’ most valuable player Tor the 1973-74 season. Stranges, who scored 66 points on 2S goals and 41 assists, is the career leader with 70 assists, while finishing second to Mike Klym in career goals (SS) and career points (125).

The Bulls faced Brockport Monday and will host Niagara this afternoon. * • » � The intramural softball season began last Saturday with a full slate of contests. A record 106 teams have been entered in this year’s intramural softball leagues, reported recreation assistant Mike Sweig. » • * * Six Bulls were selected to Outstanding College Athletes of America, an honor rdll of collegiate competitors. Horace Brawley, who paced the basketball Bulls in scoring last season, joined hockey players Doug Bowman and Andre Poirier, soccer halfback Jim Lienert, track captain Doug Lake and tennis’ Paul Parelli in being honored. The baserunners took their leads from second and third, as Bull pitcher Rich Kobel took his sign on the mound. Third baseman Bobby Wells waited at the plate, and drove one of Kobel’s serves to right field. Right fielder Rick Wolstenholme’s catch and subsequent run-preventing throw left the scoring burden on the shoulders of Eisenhower center fielder John Weagraff. Weagraff waved at one of Rebel's pitches, and the lone General scoring threat for the afternoon was ended. Eisenhower became Buffalo’s double victim Sunday, in the Bulls 4-0.7-0 triumphs, as the Generals ran their consecutive scoreless game streak to three. “The best thing about playing a doubleheader against a team like this is everybody gets a chance to pitch,” said Buffalo pitching coach Bob Prorok. “You don’t have to pitch any of your best pitchers.” The Bulls began the' first game with one of their best, John Buszka, and the Generals acted as if they were attempting to break the strikeout record for a seven-inning game. They missed high pitches, low pitches, fastballs, curveballs, and changeups. Occasionally, they watched pitches. Thirteen of the Generals, who were probably reduced to Privates A swinging team ‘They gave me a couple of breaks,” said Buszka. “They were swinging a lot today. Niagara (the Purple Eagles knocked Buszka out in the third inning Thursday) was taking a lot of pitches,” Buszka added. Kobel, the winning pitcher, fanned three in his four-inning stint in the second game, while relief pitcher Mike Klym struck out four of the “scoreless wonders” in three innings. The Bulls, who were held to four runs (two earned) by Eisenhower ace Dennis Chiehomski in the opener, exploded for another four in the second game before starting pitcher Mike Ryan could retire a batter. Gary Cox, who drove in the Bulls’ second run in the first game, doubled home two more in the nightcap to send the losers back to Seneca Falls, N.Y., empty-handed. Buffalo was scheduled to host Pittsburgh twice yesterday (weather permitting), will face powerful West Virginia in a three-game series at Peelle Field this weekend. The Mountaineers will visit Buffalo for a single game Friday, concluding the series with a doubleheader Saturday afternoon. STUDENT DISCOUNT on all redecorating needs—art supplies, picture framing.

Page thirteen ■ �Budget hearings, r~ . $88,000 demanded The Finance Committee recommended two alternative budgets for BSU to the Assembly: $29£00, which was the majority and $36£00, the opinion, minority recommendation. Mr. Williams’ repeated insistence at the two meetings for $88,000 was presumably a demand for all the minority student groups: BSU, tin* Puerto Rican group PODER, 1 bird World Vets, Minority Student Affairs (a branch of SA) and the ' Equal Opportunity Pmgram Student Association (I OPSA). He derived the figure b\ multiplying the $67 fee by the school’s I $00 minority students, 12% for hanking m. trading si" \ ices. "Our budget was broken down the It. iter,” maintained Mr. Williams. He objected to the Finance Committee’s elimination of money for secretaries and liavel for BSU, noting that SA pays two full-time secretaries. Mr. Napoli’s “justification for cutting the BSU budget was that he stopped in one day and didn’t see the secretary working,” charged WNYPIRG member Gary Schwartz. it i Athletic spending opposed Mr. Napoli disputed this charge, explaining that he didn’t think BSU needed really secretaries and that travel money was being cut back from all organizations because “we can’t control the legitimacies of travel.” Mr. Napoli added that aside from the secretaries and travel money, the budget for BSU’s campus had actually been .k tivities i* .reased. He also stressed that lie budgets proposed by the i nance Committee were “just a ommendation” which could be red by the Student Assembly. Prior to yesterday’s meeting, mbers of BSU and other Fee depends on teams? On the question of whether athletics receives too much money, Mr. Napoli said the issue comes down to what priority one places on varsity teams at this University. Mr. Jackalone argued that the funding of intercollegiate athletics is the only thing that prevents the State Legislature from abolishing the mandatory student fee. If SA starts cutting intercollegiate .programs. Academic Affairs coordinator Mark Humm agreed, local State Legislators will “put their foot down” regarding the mandatory fee. Complaining about the efforts of some students to monopolize the Assembly meeting, Mr. Jackalone said: “They didn’t allow anyone else a chance to speak. The majority of students on this campus don’t give a damn about finding out about how they can be influential (in the Assembly] through the democratic process. People took it upon themselves to speak for the students on this campus, and by doing *so, they struck at the very existence of Student Association itself.” Direct and indirect pressure Mr. Jackalone said he was in favor of a full audit of past SA spending being published, but did not feel the budget hearings should be delayed until one can be published: “It’s to the advantage of student groups to have their money secure now. If they wait, the budget will fall into the hands of the Executive Committee this summer, and fewer people with decide.” Mr. Jackalone said the most vocal participants at the two Assembly meetings were “an influx of special interest groups who demand to be more influential than anyone else. The most obvious directly is WNYP1RG,” he said, noting that at least they were seeking influence through the proper channels, by seeking to join the Assembly. “The more indirect ones, but most coercive, is BSU.” During the meeting, Mr. Jackalone criticized members of the minority -CAC-WNYP1RG Page fourteen The Spectrum Wednesday, 24 April 1974 . coalition for “not giving students a chance to work together at this University. This is a democratic process in which votes are taken that can overrule anything that is done by me or any other SA officers,” Mr. Jackalone Recess challenged When this.remark met with catcalls from hostile segments of the audience, Mr. Jackalone said: “What’s happened here is that people have started making accusations, when I have not as yet heard the SA Treasurer talk and explain what the budget is.” week’s Challenging last Assemblyperson recess, Assembly and WNYPIRG representative Rich Sokolow charged that the meeting had been recessed rather than adjourned to prevent new representatives, which SA claimed were only concerned with their interest group’s allotment, from voting on the budgets. Citing a specific section of Robert’s Rules of Order, Mr. Sokolow claimed that the six-day interim between this week’s and last week’s mandated, an sessions adjournment. He defined a recess as “a short intermission in a meeting after which you begin right where you left off.” “Six days is not too long; it was left up to the Assembly whether to recess or adjourn,” responded Parliamentarian David Saleh. Just before the meeting’s end, when more parliamentary procedure was being debated, Mr. Williams grabbed the microphone and declared; “What the hell are we supposed to do sit up all night while you discuss point of order, point of information Roberts Rules. Fuck that we want our money.” “We do not recognize SA any more,” Mr. Williams declared as the meeting broke up. “We put $100,000 into this school; we give up 12% of that for banking services and sitting in the comer of the Rat, so we want $88,000. All we want is our money every dime the minority students put in, we want hack.” ... — bads, desks, dresser, book shelves, price negotiable, must Mil. Call a3S-6890. __ maintained.

Many students have alleged that one audit already done reveals serious discrepancies which reflect “money going into people’s pockets,” as one student charged. Mr. Napoli has admitted that the audit, which he said would be made public in two weeks, showed some discrepancies. However, this is the audit of the 1972-73 year; the audit of the last year’s SA will be done this summer, Mr. Napoli explained. Much controversy has revolved around the BSU budget. Mr. Williams has claimed that he came out of the budget discussions with the SA Finance Committee with the impression that BSU would receive $41,000. Mr. Napoli said IS BSU members walked into the meeting, suggested the $41,000 allocation, and left assuming it was all right without Finance Committee approval. minority groups joined forces with members of CAC, WNYPIRG and other groups to oppose the proposed budget priorities, which they see as giving far too much money to intercollegiate athletics the expense of their at organization. ‘The average student is getting fucked by athletics,” Mr. Williams asserted. “The minority students feel they are subsidizing activities Mr. Williams they don’t added that most black students don’t attend such white-oriented activities as UUAB movies and concerts, yet their $67 fee funds both those activities and the intercollegiate sports teams. He reiterated that minority student groups should be allocated a total sum of488,000, so that minority students themselves can determine how the money is used. However, one observer complained that such an arrangement would result in a “power struggle” in which the less powerful minority groups would receive less money. I In protest, minority group members then'began shouting in unison: “We want an audit; we want an audit.” Further attempts to diacuss the budgets were made by Messrs. Salimando and Napoli, but they were drowned out by the mounting excitement. The meeting was recesedl minutes later. • .- ' ‘if;.

LEST WE NOT FORGET Golden Anniversary Bear. i Koch’s IT’S TIME TO REFORM CAMPAIGN FINANCING John W. Gardner, Chairman Common Cause Former Secretary ol Health, Education and Wellare "Wouldn't It be great If you didn't have to take a single dime from anybody?" said Senator Philip Hart of Michigan. He had in mind the uncomfortable, sometimes degrading, experiences that political candidates have when they go hat-in-hand to potential donors for contributions. The costs of political campaigns have gone sky-high. And monied special interests are always glad to meet those costs in behalf of the candidate. The inevitable result has been corruption, scandal and public mistrust of the political process. Today in most districts and states, candidates can't run for public office unless they are rich, or unless they are willing to put themselves under obligation to sources of funds. That isn't the kind of country we started out to be. There are honest contributors who give out of conviction. and there are honest politicians who don't repay gifts with political favors. But let's face it: most large political gifts are made with the intent to buy influence, buy votes, buy politicians. The first principle of free self-government is accountability of government to the citizen. Elections are the chief means through which citizens enforce that accountability. But it the winning candidate feels that his first obligation is to his big campaign donors, public accountability is destroyed. Here are some of the necessary ingredients of reform. 1) There must be low ceilings on individual or committee gifts. although 2) There must be limits on spending these must not be set too low or they will handicap challengers. 3) There must be full public disclosure of all gifts and expenditures. One of the most powerful forces for clean government ever discovered is the light of day. 4) There must be an independent enforcement commission with subpoena powers and the power to go to court. It is shocking but true that no federal campaign financing law has ever been seriously enforced by the Justice Department. Many are now beginning to see that there is one further necessary ingredient if we are to have a responsible and namely, an element of competitive political system public financing in campaigns. Money for campaigns need not come totally and exclusively from public funds. The bill recently debated in the Senate permits a role for money from private sources, although it places a ceiling on the size of gifts. It encourages small private contributions by providing that they will be matched up to $100 each with public funds at the primary level. No candidate in the primaries will receive any federal matched funds unless he or she has demonstrated the ability to raise small private gifts up to a specific threshhold amount. This will screen out frivolous candidates or candidates with no constituency. There are legitimate questions as to the mechanics of public financing, but these questions can be dealt with. The real question is whether we intend to put behind us once and for all a system of campaign financing in which money can buy political outcomes. There is much more to do. And the time to do it is now. The American people are tired of being bilked and manipulated. It’s time to give this country back to its people.

Smith says estimated to be close to a million dollars, has been gathering information from every committee and source tjiat may have touched upon matters relevant by Michael O’Neill National Editor to the impeachment investigation. The ground work The House Judiciary Committee is conducting' the most volatile investigation into the affairs of the Presidency in American history. It will play a major The politically explosive House inquiry into the grounds for role in the course of events that will determine impeaching President Nixon must resolve numerous legal, political and whether or not Richard Nixon remains in office. practical questions. The legal questions revolve around the nature of "We are the ones who will make the decisions as to impeachable offenses; the political issue is whether a “no” vote on the material that is pertinent to the [impeachment] impeachment is not political suicide in a Watergate-racked election investigation, not the President and not Mr. St. year; and the practical question is whether public opinion will suport Clair,” said Representative Henry P. Smith (R., Congress on its ultimate determination as to whether Mr. Nixon should Tonawanda). ‘This may wind up in a giant confrontation, even though everybody hopes that it remain in the Presidency. Because he is not running for re-election, House Judiciary won’t. We are in a position now where we can devise Committee member Henry P. Smith, a Tonawanda Republican, is in a the machinery for investigation that will be unique position to reach a rational decision on impeachment without aceptable to both the committee and to the White being distracted by political pressures. But he freely admits that House.” Mr. Smith, a ten-year veteran in the House and Democratic victories in the recent.special Congressional elections have given Republicans nightmares of a Democratic-dominated Congress. currently a member of the House Judiciary There is “no doubt” that campaigning Republicans would be better off Committee investigating the grounds for impeaching with Vice-President Gerald Ford in the White HOuse, Mr. Smith President Nixon, was in Buffalo last weekend and observed, and he did not discount the effect of this on impeachment took time out from a busy schedule to discuss the by HowieKurtz Editor-inChief done by the investigators has enabled the committee members to determine exactly what material they will' need to continue their investigation. It is because of the accuracy that the House will succeed in getting the material it needs. When the original request for tapes was sent to the White House, it was refused on the grounds that the request was so vague that they didn’t know what the committee was asking for. Through careful investigation, Mr. Smith explained, the committee was able to rephrase its request and “particularize” specifically which tapes it wanted. “I was prepared to vote against the issuance of a subpeona after the first request was denied, because the catch-all provision was almost impossible to comply with,” Mr. Smith said. “When we requested the exact tapes that we needed, it was a different story, and after attempts at negotiating failed, we agreed that the proper thing to do was to issue the subpeona.” [The committee vote was 33-3.] The question of national security information being on the tapes, and the possibility of prejudicing the cases of other Watergate defendants, has been a major stumbling block to the impeachment investigation. It now appears that the committee is determined to go ahead in spite of the President’s warnings on these issues. “Most of us on the committee feel have an overriding constitutional responsibility in this matter, and we have to be the judges of what is relevant and what is not, what is damaging to third parties and what is not.” Mr. Smith asserted. “If the President or Mr. St. Clair says, Tn that particular conversation we weren’t talking about anything you are interested in.’, I don’t think the committee is ready to take their word for it,” said Mr. Smith. “I think we will insist on some machinery whereby our counsel or Mr. Rodino and Mr. Hutchinson, the ranking members of the Committee, can listen to the tapes and decide for themselves whether they are relevant to the inquiry.” votes. ‘No’ could be suicide If the House Judiciary Committee recommertds impeachment, Mr. Smith firmly believes that “the House will definitely vote to impeach in this, an election year.” With every merpber of the House running for re-election, a “no” vote on impeachment could send many Representatives to an early retirement from politics. Additionally, as Mr. Smith pointed out, for a Representative to vote for impeachment is a “safe” vote, since he can claim that he wanted the President to get a fair trial before the Senate to clear the air about his guilt or innocence. If that Senate trial materializes, Mr. Smith believes that “public demand for TV” will “probably” mean it will be televised. One thing is certain: the House committee does not intend to let President Nixon or his lawyers determine what evidence is relevant to the impeachment inquiry. Mr. Smith considered the committee’s first request for White House tapes to be a “catch-all,” for which he could not support a subpeona; but now that staff research has enabled his committee to “particularize” its requests for 42 specific tapes of conversations, he joined with the 33—3 majority two weeks ago in voting to subpeona the eivdence (the White House has until Thursday to respond). But the committee will not allow Mr. Nixon or his lawyers to determine what evidence is relevant the committee counsel or ranking Representatives Rodino and Hutchinson must hear any questionable evidence and decide for themselves, Mr. Smith insisted. — Scope of impeachable offenses If Mr. Nixon does not fully comply with the subpoena, Mr. Smith conceded that the House could not.very well arrest him. Many contend that the President’s failure to comply would be added to the list of impeachable offenses; Mr. Smith believes the negative public reaction which would result if Mr. Nixon withheld evidence would definitely influence the impeachmant vote in Congress. The committee would be reluctant to go to court, the Republican Representative observed, because bringing in the judiciary might cloud the House’s claim of undisputed authority in an impeachment investigation. But the most vital questions the committee must resolve revolve around the nature of an impeachable offense and the scope of Presidential accountability. Mr. Smith feels the committee will exclude such offenses as the secret bombing of Cambodia, claiming that key members of Congress were informed, and the illegal impoundment of Congressional funds, noting that many Presidents have committed similar acts. The inquiry will focus on Watergate and related crimes, Mr. Smith insisted, conceding that such acts as the Ellsberg break-in, the 1970 plan for bugging and burglarizing political dissidents, and the illegal wiretaps, contributions and harassment of the 1972 Presidential campaign would qualify as “related” crimes. Illegal and impeachable Politically, it would be easier for the House to win public support for impeaching President Nixon on these clearly illegal, and therefore impeachable, grounds. So while a variety of constitutional scholars have argued that an act need not be a criminal act for it to be an impeachable offense merely a serious abuse of Presidential power political reality dictates that the House focus on acts both impeachable and criminal. The need for the public to,perceive the inquiry as “fair” and not partisan also prompted committee Republicans, including Mr. Smith, to fight for a role in the inquiry for Presidential counsel James St. Clair, which will include his being present when the evidence is presented and a “limited” right to cross-examine witnesses. “Obstruction of justice is the best impeachable offense,” asserted — — —continued on page 9— St. Clair’s role A major step made by the committee toward facilitating the continuance of the investigation was to permit the President’s counsel, James St.Clair, to sit in on the presentation of evidence to the committee. “The President’s attorney will be in the —O’Neill chamber when the evidence is presented, he will be allowed to make a statement on the specific evidence which was presented after the hearings end, and will developments that have led to the present be entitled to call witnesses on the President’s behalf controversy surrounding the investigating, and to and to a limited extent cross-examine them,” speculate on both the implications of the explained Mr. Smith. The upcoming deliberations of the House impeachment process and the possible direction that Judiciary Committee have attracted intense the inquiry may take. The committee has issued a subpeona to attention from all across the country, and many President Nixon, calling for 42 tapes of interesting questions have been raised. Mr. Smith conversations made approximately a year ago surmised the importance of his committee’s between Mr. Nixon and his closest advisors. The investigation: “If we recommend impeachment, I White House has until Thursday to comply with the cannot foresee the House going against the demands or face possible recriminations. “We can recommendation in this, an election year. They can enforce the subpeona,” said Mr. Smith. “There are go back to their districts saying that they have done what they could, and the decision is now up to the two alternative-approaches. The committee can ask the House to vote on holding Mr. Nixon in contempt Senate.” Mr. Smith, who is not running for and direct the Sergeant at Arms to arrest him.” re-election, conceded that the pressure of having to Congressman Smith qualified the statement by face the electorate is something that every member adding: “This alternative doesn’t sound too of the House who hopes to return for the next productive when you consider that it is the President session is acutely aware of. This added pressure may of the United States that we are talking about.” The serve to speed up the impeachment actions of the other possibility, also termed unproductive by the Congress. Congressman, would be to have the Justice Grounds for impeachment Department prosecute the case. One of the functions of the Judiciary “Pubjic oponion will play a very important role this Smith Committee will be to determine on exactly what decision,” Mr. in explained, if the President should not give something up and not give grounds impeachment hearings will proceed. us some way to check its relevance.

Smith • �3 4 Collegiate Assembly continues to consider Four of the nine faculty members recommended by the Faculty-Senate Executive Committee, for the six faculty positions on the College Chartering Committee, were welcomed by the Collegiate Assembly last Thursday. The Assembly has not rejected the other five recommendations, but is waiting for an additional two faculty names to consider. The two names have riot yet been disclosed, but Irving Spitzberg, dean of the Colleges, assumes they will both be women. Dr. Spitzberg said the delay in revealing the names “does not indicate any real problem,” but is just a matter of sorting things out. The Reichert Prospectus for the Colleges requires 12 regular voting members on the Charter Committee: six faculty members mutually approved by the Faculty-Senate and the Collegiate Assembly; one member from the Academic Affairs Council, chosen by that council; two undergraduate students picked by the Student Association (SA); one graduate student chosen by GSA; and two Collegiate Assembly by calling for President Nixon's resignation. All members chosen by that body. The names approved by the Assembly are History professor Harry members of the University and Buffalo communities Larry Green, professor of Orthodontics;'Curtis Mettlin, Cullinan; are invited. assistant professor of Sociology; and Associate. Librarian Yoram Szekely. The five names still being considered are History professor William Allen; Philosophy professor Newton Carver; Robert Gayley, associate professor, of Physics; Anne Payne, associate professor of English; and English professor Myles Slatin. Four other members have already been chosen: undergraduates Pamela Benson and June Lapidus, representing SA, and Collegiate Assembly members Sue Cook of College F and Jackie Finley of College B. The powers of the Chartering Committee are three-fold: 1) To feview charters for applying Colleges and make recommendations to President Robert Ketter;2) 14th Amendment to specific cases,” according to the the Dean of the Colleges and to University of College the “dissolution a unit” if necessary; and 3) To recommend department’s new course description.

Linder Contributing Editor “Restructuring” is the name of the game at the Political Science Department this spring. A completely new program, designed to respond to the interests of both majors and non-majors, will be instituted in the Fall. Because of a “tendency for political science majors to stick to upper level courses and non-majors to shy away from the upper level courses,” the Political Science Department is introducing a new series of 200-level courses, explained Clark Murdock, chairman of the political science Undergraduate Policy Committee. The 111-series previously called “Enduring Themes” will be replaced by a group of 200—220 level courses entitled “Issues in Contemporary Politics.” This series will contain 5 different subjects in separate sections of the course; Women and Politics; Technology and Politics; Radicals, Liberals, Conservatives; Environmental Politics and Political Utopias.

BHBC3 Lowest rates in town .. �I Commentary Busing to change racial attitudes and prejudices by Gary Cohn Campus Editor The yellow school bus has become a hated vehicle for integration. After viewing events in Lackawanna this week where school board officials have vowed to wage a “tooth-and-nail fight” against a state integration order calling for widespread busing of elementary school children I have realized that just about nobody favors integration through - - busing. The Lackawanna school board unanimously condemned the state order to bus youngsters in kindergarten through fifth grade. White residents in the Steel City are vehemently opposed to the busing plan. And the black people in Lackawanna also dislike the busing edict from State Education Commissioner Ewald Nyquist. Most of the people in the industrial town of Lackawanna black, white and want their elementary Puerto Rican school children to attend neighborhood schools. Typical were remarks, by two women one white, the other black. “I wouldn’t want my five-year-old standing out in the cold waiting for a bus," the white woman said. Her feelings were echoed by the black resident who said that she was “very much opposed to busing.” - — — Amorphous goal? The arguments against busing are indeed compelling. Parents do not want their children bussed simply to achieve the amorphous goal of “integration.” And there is no guarantee that bussing a black ghetto child to a white-dominated school will improve his education, his self-concept or the quality of his life. But, as compelling as the reasons against busing may be, the need for busing is far more compelling. Commissioner Nyquist was right to reject the “integration” plan put forth by the Lackawanna board of education (the LACE proposal). Under the LACE plah, children in grades K-S would attend' neighborhood schools, - and then upon teaching the sixth grade, would be sent to integrated middle schools (6*7-8) and on to integrated high schools. If enacted, the LACE proposal would not lessen racial bias. In fact, segregating children in grades K-5 and then thrusting them into a more multi-racial situation might increase racial tensions. Unbiased youth Age has' been found to be related to the development of racial prejudice, according to social psychologist Patricia Middlebrook: “Although children as young as five have racial prejudices, they are not as articulated and intense as those held by adults,” Pr. older children and Middlebrook stated in citing studies by psychologists. For instance, D. Singer has shown that when the attitudes of children who began the first grade in an interracial situation were compared with those of children attending all-white schools in a comparable community, the children in the voluntary integrated schools were much less prejudiced. Additionally, P. Whitmore found that “the prejudices of younger children are decreased more by interracial contact than those of older children.” In that study, Dr. Whitmore measured the racial attitudes of eighth, tenth and twelfth graders before and after five months of integration; he found that the younger children became less prejudiced while the attitudes of the twelfth graders did not change. changing racial attitudes and for assuring equal education to black children. Even if the physical facilities and other factors are equal, the Supreme Court has stated that segregation of children in public schools is detrimental to blacks and whites. Segregation whether by law, or through total reliance on neighborhood may permanently affect the schools “hearts and minds of black children in a way unlikely ever to be undone, as the Supreme Court stated in Brown v. Topeka - — Board of Ed. Because integration is indespensible and because busing is the only known way to bring about that goal we have no choice but to implement widespread busing for elementary school children. — - Frustrations But integration also has its dangers, and educators must become fully cognizant of these dangers. Sending a black child to a with white history courses, white school and a white philosophy on life may foster a range of detrimental effects. - Integration: essential - Integration at an early age is vital for Students whose expectations are falsely raised during the six hours per day in the white school may become frustrated, and begin to hate whites. They may finally revolt. And who can blame them? Furthermore, a “white” school with its emphasis on formal and informal rewards for “proper behavior” might produce the type of black referred to as an “oreo cookie” —.black on the outside, — - — white on the inside. We must begin to teach both black and white history, literature, art and music in our integrated schools. When this is done, break down the toward equality. “Five dollars worth,” I told the Mobil attendant on my way home from Lackawanna. “By the way,” I asked, “what do you think about the Nyquist plan to bus school children?” He answered: “It’s a lot of shit. Let the niggers stay where they are and the we may finally begin to racial barriers as we creep whites stay where they are.” 1 should have gone to a self-service station. Symposium emphasizes sexist medical standards by Linda Moskowitz Feature Editor The double standard fn health which works to the disadvantage of women patients and physicians, was the theme a symposium explored in sponsored by women medical students last Wednesday evening in the Harriman Faculty Club. “The next generation must be brought up to know that not all women are nurses and not all men are doctors,” said Nancy J. Stubbe, clinical instructor in Surgery and Anatomy at this University. Dr. Stubbe was one of four women physicians and Medical School instructors who appeared on a panel at the care, meeting. The discrepancy in treatment of male and female patients was cited as a major issue by another panel member. Daphne Hare, an assistant professor of Medicine and Biophysical Sciences here. The majority of male doctors, she said, “probably give a less thorough physical exam to women.” Sexist health care Dr. Hare, describing medical problems occurring more frequently in one sex than the other, used the breast check for women as a female analogy to the heart check for men. She claimed that the heart check is probably done more often than the breast check in the course of a physical exam. Pap smears, the test for cervical cancer in women, do not have the priority they should in physical exams, added Dr. Hare. A further example of medical discrimination against women described by Dr. Hare involves dialysis treatment, used for patients with kidney disorders. Since the dialysis equipment is scarce, expensive, and often in great demand. Dr. Hare maintained that those who get dialysis are “chosen on the basis of medical and social criteria.” “Since society just can’t accommodate all these people,” she continued, “some must die.” Doctors therefore often use social criteria to determine “what is the worth of an individual,” she said. Whether this process is subconscious or not. Dr. Hare believes women are usually deemed worth less socially than men in such instances. The treatment of women in the mental health field was also attacked by Dr. Hare: “I think the evidence shows there is a tendency to take complaints and symptoms of women and write them off as psychosomatic,” she said. Another complaint was that “women are put on drugs more often than men. Psychiatrists will more often try to work out what’s troubling the man,” Dr. Hare explained. She continued by explaining the dilemma of a 35-year-old housewife, with several children, who goes to a psychiatrist due to —Santos persistent depression. Dr. Hare thinks it is very likely that the doctor would tell the woman that her problem is that she doesn’t accept her feminity, rather than observing that the woman might simply be bored by housework and child care duties. Women physicians and their pregnancies provoked much discussion among the women at the symposium. Dr. Hare believes society uses pregnancy to keep women in their place. One woman in the audience, however, felt that women cannot escape the issue because “women have the babies, not their husbands, and they must be prepared to take the responsibility for their children.” The number of years women take off from work to have babies and raise families, as well as the question of maternity leaves for doctors, were also women discussed at the conference. The rationale for keeping women out of medical school is that they will take a place away from a man, and then, once granted a degree, will only take many years off to raise a family, Dr. Hare observed. However, when presented with this argument by a man, she facetiously replies that it would actually be more beneficial to allow more women into medical school, because in general, men have been found to die sooner than women. ‘Ego problems’ In spite of the many obstacles which confront women medical students, the women doctors at the conference were generally optimistic regarding the future of women in medicine. “With women being accepted in more and more positions, it’s going to get easier and easier,” said Rose Ruth Ellison, resident associate professor of Medicine at this University. “Medical school is probably the easiest thing you’re going to have,” she advised the future doctors in the audience. Another panel member who spoke of the rewards of a career in medicine was Cynthia Clayton, assistant professor of Pediatrics at Meyer and Children’s Hospitals. “I’ve never regretted going to medical school,” she said. —continued on page 9 — Monday, 22 April 1974 The opectrum Page three . . �Legislative Roundtable concentrates on lobbying Reverend Kenneth Sherman called “an effective citizens’ lobbying mechanism.” Legislative this first Ironically, Roundtable, sponsored by the New York Civil Liberties Union, Niagara Frontier Chapter (NYCLU), was not attended by any of the local State Legislators as planned, because of an unexpected special session in Albany on Friday. “We can’t call each other a coalition yet,” said Killian Vetter, the forum’s moderator and a member of the NYCLU. He emphasized, however, that the forum was the first of many such meetings which would “establish a common presence of citizen groups.” Inequities in schools Although the local legislators could not attend. State Assemblyman Arthur Eve was represented by Dorothy Shields, and the local media was there to cover the event. Ms. Shields, the recipient of the 1974 Civil Liberties Award given by the NYCLU’s Niagara Falls chapter, as well as a member of the Civil Liberties Board since 1953, said Mr. Eve supported the legislation which the forum’s participants advocated. Complete or ast least greatly expanded state funding of public schools was suggested by Joan Boser of the League of Women Voters. This is the only way to eliminate the inequities which persist among various schools, she argued. — — Ms. Boser also said that the Board of Elections, and not civic groups, should be actively involved in registering high school students who are eligible to vote. Withholding rent advised In the area of tenents’ rights, Ms. Boser urged the adoption of an “implied warrant of habitability,” which would allow tenants to withhold their rent payment until their landlords improved their ROTC in high schools? Erie County is “seven years late” in its of child care services, Ms. Hendricks charged, She noted that the proposed program of “in-home child care” (in which mothers with children of their own are reimbursed by the county for taking care of one or two other children in their own homes) is unacceptable if it is the only form of child care service promise provided. Ms. Hendricks expressed optimism that New York State to include a bill requiring proposed the federal Equal Rights Amendment in the State Constitution would be passed this year. The federal amendment has already been ratified by the New York State Legislature, but a movement has begun to repeal that approval, she said. • The Pentagon is subsidizing public school programs of military training in high schools, explained Rev. Sherman of the Western New York Peace Center. He cited a bill (which had passed the State Senate, was initially defeated by the Assembly, but later passed on another vote on the last day of the legislative session) that allows high schools to adopt ROTC programs with state funding. Support for OEO Another bill, sponsored by a Nassau County legislator, will force local high schools to give a list of their seniors to House will impeach... which has characterized the second term of the Nixon adminsitration. “We are in the process of pushing all of these considerations to the outside,” said Mr. Smith. “The Republicans on the committee are determined to narrow the investigation down to Watergate and related issues,” such as the break-ins and wiretaps against dissidents and political opponents. “We don’t think the others are impeachable offenses and don’t want to delay the investigation by wasting time on them.” of justice is the best impeachable offense, and that is what we’ll concentrate on. If it did occur, we’ll have to determine to what extent.” Rep. Smith added: “Whether or not the offenses are impeachable will depend to a great extent on the degree to which they were committed.” Presidential accountability The committee will focus its attention on the actual part played by President Nixon, rather than on the crimes committed by members of his staff. “As far as impeachment is concerned, there is a large cleavage between illegal and stupid acts of an executive and the actions of his staff, if he is not involved in them.” This attitude has come under attack recently as a passive acceptance on the part of the Congress of the crimes committed by members of the executive branch,, because it hedges on the question of Presidential accountibility for the actions of his .

By contrast, the New England states, which do not have the death penalty, have the lowest homocide rates in the country, Mr. Farringer observed. Capital punishment is also more likely to be meted out against the poor and underprivileged, Mr. Farringer maintained. His statistics show that of the 444 people executed in America during the last IS 400 were black. “If taking a human life is wrong, then it is wrong for the state to take one,” Mr. Farringer concluded. Reverend Echols and Reverend Williams of the Buffalo Council of Churches stressed the of current welfare “indignity procedures and urban blight.” Rev. Echols said “confidence in the moral integrity of our legislators has been severely shaken,” but expressed hopes that the finance reform and campaign legislators’ commitment to correcting conditions that “destroy the dignity of man” will restore confidence in the years, political system. closed the legislative Mr. Vetter roundtable by saying the issues it raised “should not have to be discussed at all in this day and age.” page 1— FULL TIME SUMMER EMPLOYMENT PROMOTIONAL ADVERTISING IN EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS Diamonds are so timeless and, so is the art of the master goldsmith.

Every member of the Hoqse and those in the Senate who are up for re-election will make it very clear that they are not acquiescing to the crimes of the executive branch. They realize they are dealing with the Chief Executive and not with his direct subordinates in this investigation.” Congressional response to the abuses of power has often taken the form of partisan bickering rather than meaningful reforms. Democrats and Republicans alike have resorted to hurling charges of poor conduct at one another. Some efforts, however, have been taken to remedy the situation and prevent it from ocurring in the future. A bill for Congress to consider the federal budget as a whole, adopted last month, was described by Mr. Smith as the “most important piece of legislation to pass Congress in the last -ten years.” It provides for the establishment of Congressional control over many areas of spending that to date have been the sole concern of the executive branch. It sets up a system of gathering information, and creates a staff that will allow the Congress to determine its own budget piorities, rather them just considering the budget piecemeal and inviting Presdiential impoundments by spending too much. “It goes a long way toward gaining back some of the power that has been assumed by the President in the past because of Congressional inactivity,” Mr. Smith concluded. ■ (Just see what happens.) people yet still has the highest homocide rate in the country. In Delaware, Mr. Farringer noted, the homocide rate declined when the death penalty was repealed and rose again after it ‘Blemish on civilization' Although the bill is “severly limited in scope,” its passage would represent “the first small step in a long and necessary journey toward correcting larger injustices,” said Mr. Faulkner. Capital punishment was attacked by the NYCLU’s Harold Farringer as “a blemish on our civilization.” Capital punishment docs not deter homocide, he added. Mr. Farringer cited Georgia as an —continued from Lonely? List your telephone number in The Spectrum classifieds! greatest number of armed forces recruiting officers. Glen Nellis, president of the Community Action Organization (CAO) of Erie County for the past two years, argued for the extension of the federal Office of Equal Opportunity (OEO) program, a Johnson-era agency disliked by President Nixon, which Congress must act upon by July 1. “Forty governors and sixteen state legislatures have gone on record in favor of such and extension,” he said, but New York State is not among them. On the other hand, Mr. Nellis said city and county funds for poverty programs have increased during the last year. A bill to amend the civil rights law to make it illegal “for any public licensing agency to inquire about or act upon information concerning an arrest of an applicant which has not been followed by a conviction,” was supported by Lawrence Faulkner, staff counsel for NYCLU. 881-6110 * Sex discrimination, tenants’ rights, day care, capital punishment, campaign reform and poverty programs highlighted a “Legislative Roundtable" Friday morning. Individuals representing various community organizations gathered at the Historic Wilcox Mansion on Delaware Avenue in the hopes of creating what apartments to meet minimum living standards. The campaign financing reform bill passed last week by the State Assembly “falls short” of Common Cause’s expectations for such reform, said Pat Galvin of the citizens’ lobbying group. Ms. Galvin called the bill “a giant step backward” because it allows union and corporate campaign contributions which were previously illegal. “Sexism and racism and one battle to fight,” declared Helen Hendricks, the New York legislative coordinator to the National Organization For Women (NOW), quoting Representative Shirley Chisolm. “Women want to be equally treated as far as jury duty is concerned,” said Ms. Hendricks. This would be a step toward “getting women into full participation in the community,” she explained. • 81 Allen St., Buffalo Evanstown Plaza 418 Evans near Sheridan Williamsville I byBanry Ginsberg Spectrum Staff Writer # 1 UL “1“V OTYT / 1H/tvBu in 15J Norton Hall. f �<4 travel agency; catering to particular needs of campus by Don Eisenmaim Spectrum Staff Writer A student travel agency, designed to give State University at Buffalo students substantial reductions in traveling costs, should be operating by September. The agency, Student Association (SA) Travel, will be administered by Pieper Travel, a Buffalo travel agency, and according to Student Rights coordinator Hillary Lowell, “will provide everything a regular travel agency would, but will be geared toward students and their particular needs.” Mr. Lowell has been working on the project since his election last month. “Most universities of this size have some sort of travel service, and especially since youth fare discounts on air travel are being eliminated, it’s something that’ll really be needed,” he explained. Professional SA attorney Richard Lippes is presently drawing up the contract with Pieper, which already provides travel arrangements for Albright Knox, the Buffalo Philharmonic and other local organizations. “The Pieper agency seems fair, confident and agreeable to assume the risk involved, and is prepared to hire a special staff member just to handle S A. Travel,” said Mr. Lowell. “Because they’re professional and experienced in such matters, they’ll know who’s reputable, and who to contact and who to avoid better than an individual student group trying to arrange student travel.” While most agencies make a 10-15 per cent profit in arranging travel, Pieper has agreed to a considerably lower fee and has acquiesed having its financial records inspected by the SA. The service will not involve the use of any SA funds; it will provide savings by dealing with large numbers of student, i.e., charter flights and group discounts. Wide interest For example, a flight to Europe presently costs around $350,.but would only be about $250 if enough students could be recruited for a charter flight,” said Mr. Lowell. SA travel will therefore arrange trips that will be of interest to many students, such as summer flights to Europe, Christmas and Easter flights to Florida, and weekend trips to Toronto, Montreal and Washington. S.A. Travel will attempt to cater to the special needs of students, Mr. Lowell explained: “Students don’t have to have the best hotel facilities as long as they’re cheap, clean and comfortable.” A large part of the service will be providing information about things like railroad passes, travel tips, hotels, places to go, things to do, and will help the student secure travel insurance and passports. The agency will assist students in planning personal trips, but these will be at standard rates. Furnas College: growing and Edelstam to speak on Chilean military coup developing through the years A living-learning community of students in the Ellicott Complex will Clifford Furnas College become a reality this September after an eight-year delay. Anticipating the growth of this University to over 40,000 students and the adverse effects a large, impersonal institution would have on individuals former University President Martin Meyerson proposed a plan 1966 calling for the in organization of six residential Colleges of 500 students each. “A committee was formed to consider the plan, and eventually six masters were appointed by President Meyerson,” explained Lyle Borst, former Master of Clifford Furnas. Each College would be composed of a Master and a board of senior Fellows, chosen from the faculty. Each senior Fellow would then choose a junior Fellow (also a faculty member), and two students to work with him. This nucleus would function without residences until each College found a permanent home. — - — - Delays Among the first buildings slated for construction at the Amherst Campus were a group of buildings for the six Colleges. facilities However, dormitory were not available for several years becausti—of construction delays at Amherst. As a result, Clifford Furnas College ceased to exist for three years until it received permission to share MacDonald Hall with College B in September 1971. The first year in MacDonald witnessed an exchange of interests among the music and art students of College B and science students of College D (Furnas College). However, “this close relation made it difficult for each College to develop its own identity,” Dr. Borst maintained. Consequently, by fall 1972, Clifford Furnas became the sole occupant of MacDonald Hall. Furnas College soon doubled to 140 students. As it became firmly established as a residential unit, “I joined Furnas College because it gives students an identity in a megaversity,” surmised one second-year resident. “Offering a sense of community and opportunity for academic and social development, Furnas College attracted students in all fields of study,” added Janice Carver, another College member. Different philosophy Furnas College remained part of the Collegiate Assembly until July 1973, when Bernard Gelbaum, vice president for Academic Affairs, consented to Dr. Borst’s request to withdraw from the Collegiate The break from the Assembly was attributed by Furnas members to differences in educational philosophy and difficulties in obtaining funds from the Collegiate Assembly. “We felt we could develop more effectively outside the Assembly,” said Stephen Serafin, head resident and acting-master of Furnas College since Dr. Borst’s resignation last February. When Dr. Borst resigned, Furnas College faced leadership crisis. Many believed Dr. Borst had been the only driving force behind the College. “The crisis was met with the Fellows pulling together,” explained Mr. Serafin. They elected a chairman of the Fellowship, C.A. Yeracaris, and designated a three-member operating committee to determine policy in the absence of a Master. The day-to-day affairs of the College are now handled by Mr. Serafln. “Borst’s resignation had a catalytic effect on student interest in the College,” said Mr. Serafin. “A lot of people began questioning what their relation to the College was,” he observed. “Furnas College members responded positively insofar as they’ve gotten involved in student activities, recruitment and the organization of college affairs and events,” Mr. Serafin added. including Mr. Edelstam. Mr. Ojalvo’s report was printed in Granma, April 7, the newspaper of the Communist party of Cuba, and includes notes of the first day of the coup: “1:30 . . . when comrade Luis and the Ambassador opened the [Cuban Embassy] door and stepped out, there was a burst of rifle and machine-gun fire, wounding diplomat Julio Farias in the chest and eye and the Ambassador in the arm.” The report continued; “All during the night, there were more orders to surrender and bursts of fire. Heavy artillery was also brought the Swedish ambassador, up. On four occasions, Edelstam, courageously and resolutely tried to reach the Embassy, but he was turned back by the military men, along with the ambassadors of India, In the Swedish Embassy, Calderon, leader of the Peru and Mexico Central Organization of workers, was wounded.” Harold Edelstam was in Italy in 1939 when Mussolini declared war on France, and he took Jewish refugees into the Swedish Embassey in Berlin in 1941. After he was expelled from Nazi-Germany, he went to Oslo, Norway to work in the anti-Nazi resistance. He was in Jakarta, Indonesia in 1965,when a right-wing military coup overthrew President Sukarno, killing over 600,000 rural communists. After this, he was sent to Guatemala, where he helped political refugees who were being repressed by General Arana. Since being expelled from Chile, he has been on an international speaking tour. ... Hobbies “One of the results of increased student input has been the formation of ‘common interest’ groups,” Mr. Serafin emphasized. The new groups planned for the fall are theater, art, music (string and woodwind quintets), tropical fish, magic, cooking and literary. The College also has a photography club and darkroom, and a computer science group with its own computer terminal. Luncheon and wine and cheese seminars give students a chance to meet with noted faculty members in an informal setting,’* explained Bernadette Gazzo, Academic College RA. “The luncheon seminars are limited to 12 students in the Tiffin Room,” she continued. The wine and cheese seminars are open to all Furnas College members and are held in the college lounge. This fall, Clifford Furnas College also plans to expand its course offerings to include not only science courses but music, art, and English programs, Ms. Gazzo explained.

President Nixon has argued that he is not responsible for crimes by his subordinates; if there was fraud in his income taxes, his accountants are to blame. But the President must be responsible when his closest advisers sell favors to corporations, solicit illegal contributions, authorize and cover-up burglaries and wiretaps, and manipulate an election.

In the upcoming impeachment ordeal, it is absolutely vital that the public be fully informed as to the information on which Congress makes its decisions on the critical questions. For that reason, it is necessary that both the impeachment debate in the House and the possible impeachment trial in the Senate be televised. Some have argued against televising impeachment, believing that the televised spectacle of a Presidential trial would be a worldwide disgrace, and that precise questioning and discussion would be impossible before the inflammatory eyes of TV cameras.

The fear of impeachment revolves around the spectacle of a divisive trial ripping the country apart and tarnishing our image in the world. But our foreign relations have already grinded to a standstill as other nations are reluctant to negotiate with our precarious leadership. And how could even our enemies profit from the ultimate display of the American democratic system? Public opinion polls testify that the large majority of Americans believe Mr. Nixon is guilty of some crime, more believe he helped cover up crimes, and even more feet he has obstructed justice by withholding evidence from the House and Special Prosecutor. With such a majority of the public believing this, how will this country look in the world's eyes and in our own eyes as if we allow someone we believe a' well criminal to remain as our President until 1977? What standard of Presidential accountability will this establish for future generations? Failure to impeach Mr. Nixon will mean that Congress will have approved of his illegal acts, his obstruction of justice, his very concept of a President above the law, accountable to no one.

A new standard of Presidential accountability will undoubtedly result from the outcome of the current impeachment investigation. With all the damaging evidence that has been revealed about the President's conduct, won't the House be acquiescing to that conduct if it fails to impeach Mr. Nixon? Won't the House be giving its stamp of approval to Mr. Nixon's abuse of the Presidency if it decides he has done nothing to warrant impeachment? Perhaps the most serious of President Nixon's many impeachable offenses is the attempt whether authorized in advance or to subvert a convered up afterward national election. For the power of the voters to throw a President out of office every four years is one of the two constitutional remedies for the abuse of Presidential power. The other is impeachment.

Correction To the Editor: In the article, “Broader Attitude Toward in Friday’s The Spectrum, it was mistakenly reported that the course “Multidisciplinary Processes in Health Care Delivery" was being offered at this University; although a course with the same name, similar to the one described, is currently being offered to Health Science students. Health,” The article by Diane R. Miller entitled “Forum attacks system that breeds and festers racism” clearly illustrates the ability of The Spectrum to continue to further divide black and white students. Numerous statements were attributed to me which were misquotes and several were taken out -of context. This style of writing is not accidental and has been dsW in the past to foster the image of knife carrying EOF and BSU students who hate white students with a passion. This divide and conquer strategy is as old as time but unfortunately it is quite successful on this campus. The Spectrum has been the fundamental weapon used to divide black and whife students. After reading this article white students have had the seed of fear planted within them. Now that they realize that black students on campus hate them collectively this prevents any black-white united approach to the solution of common problems. Congratulations Spectrum you have once again aided in the division of blacks and whites and have raised the banner of racism high. I only hope that rational thinking white students can ignore the racism which seeps from the pages of The Spectrum and join the black students in forming a united front to make this campus what it black and white should and could be. The BSU is still willing to work with white students if they are serious in dealing with common problems. - - 'NOW, I NOTE IN YOUR APPLICATION THAT YOUR LAST JOB WAS MICHIGAN EIGHTH DISTRICT Hugh E. Bassette . ho ho! I I am contemplating getting a new car am contemplating getting a different car. (That’s much more accurate!)There exists the possibility of changing from my beat-up old Chevelle to an equally beat-up old Volkswagen. The reason for the TL switch is rather simple: Car B gets approximately twice as many miles per gallon as Car A. Divided into the current price per gallon, nf||||l H this looks rather attractive. HI All of which should be a perfectly straightforward decision practical only on based considerations, right? Ha! My by Steese head never does anything the easy way. It turns out that I am attached to a rusty 1964 blue Chevelle. 1 think I’ll go West and start a cattle wonder how long it takes a beef steer to die of ranch old age? The attachment is not completely weird mostly, but not completely. There were never any cars in my family when I was growing up, and this was the first car that I, me, myself, personal, ever owned. The three years and 40-odd thousand miles that this car fotlr? and 1 have been togethe/ have been some highly formative and important years for me. Lots of changes in that time, lots of images that I can sum up around events in which said car has participated. All the people it has helped move, many of whom have receded to Christmas card status, or worse. But such memories don’t go very far constructive. Suffice it to say the " Ullllj - - - - memories are plentiful. Anyway, between the simpatico vibrations with present car, and a natural prediction to save anything I could possibly ever use, my first thought was that 1 would register both cars and turn the Chevelle out to pasture. Sort of keep it around to pull trailers for all the people 1 know who own Datsuns, Toyotas and Volkswagens. There is a little matter of insurance, yes? Yes! The script should be made clear. I do not want a second car for someone else to drive. It will be left to quietly chew its Quaker state and rust peacefully away over in one corner of the driveway. There being but one of me, it seems well nigh impossible for me to drive more than one of these automobiles at once, can you dig it? So, why, may I ask, does it make any sense at all that it costs nearly the same amount of money to insure the second car as the first? Gives me images of the Chariot race in Ben Hur last weekend must have been Easter weekend, every religious extravaganza move ever made was on the tube. 1 can see me, as Charlton Heston, racing down Main Street with one foot in one, the other in the other. I mean it’s a little - bizarre, yes? Which leaves old sentimental slob me in a bind. I’d keep Zelda might as well go for a really romantic name around for a reasonable fee, but doubling the insurance wipes out any gain fordoing the whole thiqg in the first place. Arggghhh! How is someone who can’t send cats to the SPCA supposed to turn ?n old friend into a shudder junk yard? How far do you suppose I’d get trying to call around to the wrecking companies to see if 1 could find a humane one? “Hey Sam, there is some nut on the phone who wants to know if we knock cars out before we crunch them?” Let me tell you something, this car may be old, but it still runs better than President Nixon. - — — — Nixon if he were captain of the Titanic, he would have told the passengers that they were stopping — to pick up ice. How do you gracefully retire a president or a car? The car in this case deserves a decent break; it has run nobly and well until it is around the 130,000-mile . mark. The President is entirely another matter. If he were a car, he would have been recalled for defective design a long time ago.

Maybe I can raise rabbits in the old girl. Which runs me neatly out of steam I will partially repress the urge to find a way to sneak Stanley into that someplace. I thought I could milk my car problems for more lines than this. One serious problem with being a flow-of-consciousness writer occurs when the consciousness becomes aware of the fact that what well, shall we say, dubious?, is being written is of — — - quality. If you’re interested, I can refer you to the exact place where the problem started to develop. Check back to the end of the third paragraph from the beginning, that is. 1 chickened out, and the whole thing got scrambled. Tried to shut off what 1 was feeling and make it funny. Any maybe it didn’t bomb completely, but it probably should have. There were images in my head, mostly dealing with people. Of driving down to Pennsylvania to visit a friend soon after getting the car, of driving across New England one fall to visit friends with a lady now moved along. A mood was one for me to close and grapple with some old memories, some good, some painful. But I decided I could choose not to do that. I seems that it is a real choice, that is what happened, after all. But the cost is what 1 keep forgetting, dummy that 1 am. The cost, in my case, of trying to avoid emotionally charged material is an, at least perceived, excessive decrease in efficiency of communication. I will try to remember it better in the future.

Finance Committee receives unusual ‘stack’ of petitions denied that her organization was trying to stack the Assembly, by Clem Coluccl tip. Contributing Editor Members on the above list reacted angrily to his statement. saying only one JSU member had Mr. Lalonde said: “I’m here to recently joined the Assembly. represent the students.” An That one member was presumably Executive Committee member Ms. Aber. Mr. Mones told the greeted his remarks with Assembly: “We’re not going to considerable skepticism, pointing bullshit anybody,’’ and admitted out to those fitting near him the some WNYPIRG members had prominent WNYPIRG button on joined the Assembly, but denied Mr. Lalonde’s shirt. Ms. Aber said: any ulterior motives. One former “Some of us just want to join the WNYPIRG member, presently on the Assembly, said she had been Assembly.” Freidler given a petition last year and told JSU President Judy Student Association (SA) Committee members and others close to student government suspect certain campus organizations are trying to stack the Student Assembly with supporters in order to assure passage of favorable budgets for their groups. Suspicions were aroused when in less than two weeks over 20 people submitted applications to join the Assembly. Nearly all of them requested an assignment on the Finance Committee, already filled to its constitutional limit, at a time when the budget hearings will be held. To meet this alleged threat of stacking, the Assembly, after several minutes of acrimonious debate, voted Wednesday to recess rather than to adjourn that meeting so the new people could not vote at the budget hearings starting today. (New Assembly members must attend one meeting as non-voting members before they gain voting rights.)

WNYPIRG, which got $3,000 last year, is asking for $25,000 which all major Presidential candidates promised in the recent SA elections. But the budget is running into snags with the Committee, which objects to an estimated $17,000 for a project coordinator and a lawyer. Finance Real, exaggerated fears Investigation seems to have shown that Executive Committee organizations with budgetary troubles joined to promote their group’s interests. * But the suspicion, engendered by the suspicious “coincidence” of large numbers of people joining the Assembly and hoping to get on the Finance Committee at a time when their organizations’ budgets are being discussed, remains. It has happened on a smaller scale before. Whether it has happened again cannot be discerned. What can be known is that it looks as if it’s happening again.

Denials Those members contacted by The Spectrum denied they joined the Assembly to push their own budgets through. Treasurer Sal Napoli initially voiced Executive Committee fears at Wednesday’s Assembly meeting, causing angry comments and heated denials. Admitting that some might think he Was “paranoid,” Mr. Napoli said: “I believe that the vast majority of the people who are coming on (to the Assembly) are coming on for one reason, the fact that budget hearings are coming Page eight.

Howie Forman Contributing Editor The image of the dumb jock, starring in his sport and getting by through mickey mouse courses is an 'old and popular one. In reality, this type of athlete is fading from the college scene. Buffalo still has some jocks, with all that the term implies. However, a great many Bull athletes have distinguished themselves in the classroom as well as in athletics. This second annual “tbp ten” list is the cream of the crop of student athletes. The list includes two returnees from last year as well as three of last year’s honorable mentions. Among the remaining eight of last year’s selections, all graduated, three are now in medical school, one in law school and another is a wrestling coach at a junior college. This year’s breakdwon of 5 (one is a double majors is: Biology and Chemistry), two in major in Biology Physical Education, and one a piece from Pharmacy, Management and Electrical Engineering. The ratings resulted from a survey of coaches and athletes. Only varsity athletes were eligible and final selection considered both scholastic and athletic achievement. — Fencing. Number two on this list last year, Forman is a senior Pharmacy student with a 3.7 average. Co-captain two years running, Forman fenced in the NCAA championships both years and went to the North Atlantic championships three times. Buffalo’s top epee performer, he fenced to 3 24—8 record this year. Howie is now required to take a six-month internship before taking the licensing exam for Pharmacists. After that, he is considering graduate work in Pharmacy. 2. Bruce Tuttle Cross Country. Senior Cross Country captain, Tuttle’s major is Electrical Engineering and he has a 3.7 average. Last summer Tuttle did research at Brookhaven National Laboratories in the development and design of superconductors for underground transmission. Now he plans on taking a graduate assistantship at the University of Illinois. 3. Brian Herman Crew. A 3.7 Biology Major, Herman is graduating after four years as stroke man for the crew team. Like many athletes in spring sports, final exams often coincided with the climax of his season. “Being on the team has made me budget my time a little better,” said Herman.

Though he has not declared a major yet, Burt is leaning toward Psychology. 5. Mark Bemsley Swimming. Second-fastest sprinter, Bemsley carries a 3.8 in Management and hopes to go to law school. The junior became a strictly observant Jew in the last year and would not swim on the Sabbath which meant missing many meets and everything but the relays in the state tournament. Mark also had to work around afternoon classes, while the team was practicing, by going to morning workouts. * 4 - 6. Steve Mum Fencing. A junior with Med School ambitions, Munz was Buffalo’s top sabre man and did the best of the Bulls contingent at the National tournament. Steve reports that a demonstration he saw in the Union his freshman year made him join the team. “It looked like fun,” he said. Now he maintains a 3.7 average in Biology, serves as a resident advisor in MacDonald Hall, and still fences for fun. — 7. John Stranges Hockey. Senior captain and first-string center, Stranges was among the top scorers on Ed Wright’s hockey team. Stranges reports having little trouble playing and keeping up with his studies, though he feels the team played the maximum number of games it could have, without causing academic problems. John frankly admits that he wasn’t always a very good student, and didn’t really - enjoy school until coming to Buffalo.” My intellectual progress has been unbelievable,” he says. John carries a 3.6 and is a Physical Education major. 8. Tom Mazzone Crew. An Eggertsville product, Mazzone rowed for St. Joes before coming to Buffalo, but didn’t row for the Bulls until his junior year. A 3.5 Biology major, Mazzone is headed for UB Medical School next fall. Tom has done research concerning white blood cells at Roswell Park Hospital. Wrestling and Soccer. 9. Jim Young transfer student from Middlesex is a Young (N.J.) Community and has a 3.5 in Physical Education. Like Stranges, Jim is considering graduate school, though he freely admits that if not for athletics he would not have gone to college at all. This year the junior has set school records for most goals in a season in soccer and most wins in a season for wrestling. - - 10. Tie Benjamin • - - Dave Gaeth and Scott Swimming. Another sprinter, Gaeth is headed for medical school after compiling a 3.5 as a Biology and Chemistry double major. If Benjamin’s 3.1 cum seems modest compared to the other selections, it’s probably because he has fulfilled the requirements for dental school in three years. Pitcher Bill Lasky and Mid-distance runner Larry Mentkowski head up the honorable mentions. Alphabetically, the rest are: Rich Abott (Tennis), Doug (Hockey), Gary Domzalski Bowman (Basketball), Jim Lamb (Wrestling), Gary Montour (Baseball) and Sandy White (Swimming). —continued from page 3— hierarchy among health science workers seemed to create problems for some students in terms of professional identity and role-playing. An appeal was made to women medical students to become active in the American Medical Women’s Association by Ruth Kpobloch, who is now president of Branch 18 of the New York State chapter. There is also a New York City chapter of the organization, “You don’t realize how much has changed,” said Dr. Knobloch, who graduated from medical school 43 years ago, “but there’s still a lot that can be accomplished.” She informed the group that medical students are permitted to join the junior branch of the organization, and are then granted senior status once they officially become doctors If any health science students are interested in the issue of women in medicine, they can contact Mindy Friedman, at 8 3 8-6282, for further information. from page I—- Mr. Smith. Noting that it would be a normal political reaction for a politician to initially try to contain damaging news, he insisted that the determination “will depend on the degree of the President’s involvement in the cover-up.” If Mr. Nixon even silently acquiesced to hush mopey payments to buy the silence of the Watergate defendants, Mr. Smith indicated, the committee will definietly vote to impeach. He was most confident regarding obstruction of justice as an impeachable offense; he was less comfortable regarding the degree of Presidential accountability for illegal acts by his subordinates. Obviously the President can’t be responsible for everyone in the executive branch, he said, but noted that what the President knew regarding crimes by his closest associates would definitely be considered. Influence peddling, or the trading of government favors for corporate contributions, would also be an impeachable offense if it could be proved, Mr. Smith observed. Special Prosecutor Leon Jaworski has been investigating the ITT and dairy industry cases in this regard. Mr. Smith noted that the Judiciary Committee already has five definite votes for impeachment, but believes that most of the committee, like himself, is waiting to see the evidence before reaching a conclusion. If the committee votes to impeach, an election-conscious House will definitely follow suit; but the committee’s articles of impeachment must focus on clearly illegal, impeachable offenses that could win strong public support for impeachment. Washington analysts believe that so much evidence damaging to President Nixon has been revealed that impeachment is a virtual certainty. The actions of Mr. Smith’s committee in the next eight weeks will decide whether this is to be the summer America impeaches a President.

Shortsrop Jim Lalayanis and starting pitcher Jim Miewczyk committed errors that opened the doOr for the four unearned tallies, sending Niewczyk to his second defeat of the year. The Bulls were having plenty of trouble with Tymeson, hitting under most of the righthander’s pitches, resulting in harmless fly balls. Sports Editor After raking opposing hurlers for 29 runs in two successive games, the baseball Bulls saw their winning streak halted abruptly Saturday afternoon. Buffalo split a doubleheader with Cortland at Peelle Field, winning the nightcap, 4—0, after dropping the opener by 7-1. The Bulls had whipped Niagara (14-9) and Scranton (15-1) last Thursday and Friday, respectively, and are now 10—9— 1 this season. Righthanded Bill Lasky mixed fast balls, curves and sliders in blanking the Red Dragons to give Buffalo a split of Saturday’s twinbill. Lasky threw 108 pitches in his seven-inning shutout, bringing his record to 2—0 this season. Cortland’s Garth Tymeson scattered seven hits in the opener as the Dragons broke the game open with a four-run rally in the Monkarsh displeased “We just had a bad game,” commented Bull coach Bill Monkarsh. “We didn’t get good pitching, we didn’t hit the ball, and we didn’t play good defense. We had a chance to choke off their rally, but we couldn’t do it, ballgame,” the so we lost Monkarsh added. The Bulls had opened their home season Friday by hammering Scranton, collecting 16 hits off a trio of Royal pitchers. Scranton coach Dave Ocorr started the game with his Schedule problems plague tennis Bulls by Paige Miller Spectrum Staff Writer Many problems confront the tennis Bulls this spring, but getting the team ready for play has not been one of them. The big obstacle has been the scheduling of matches. Weather problems limit the season to one month. Additionally, many schools do not play a spring tennis schedule. The Bulls were supposed to begin their campaign last Wednesday against Buffalo State, however, the Bengals were on their spring break the week before last and they could not assemble a team. The match has been rescheduled for tomorrow, filling the gap caused by Pittsburgh’s cancellation. The Panthers could not afford to make the trip to Buffalo. This afternoon’s match against Canisius was still tentative at press time. Canisius had fired athletic director Jim Bedell earlier this year, and Bedell left no records for his successor. Consequently, the Griffins were late in getting their team together. Extra practice time The cancellation of the Buffalo State match gave the Bulls some desperately-needed extra practice time. “The extra days definitely did help,” remarked Bull tennis coach Norm Baschnagel. “Our first day out [i.e., outdoor practice] was Tuesday.” The Bulls have to prepare for matches on three consecutive days this week, concluding with a trip to Colgate on Wednesday, and they have had only indoor practices prior to Tuesday. Other than the problems caused by the weather, Baschnagel has had no problems getting his squad ready. “Rich Abbott, Jeff Sepp, Steve Spiegel, Charlie Schmidt and Lonnie Keller have been working on their own trying to get into better condition,” Baschnagel noted. He had special praise for Keller, whom he indicated may start against Canisius. “Lonnie’s lost ten pounds. He’s been taking a fitness and conditioning course,” said Baschnagel. Keller did not play during the fall season due to a bout with mononucleosis. There were also several new faces trying to make the squad. Senior Jerry Cohen had the best chance to make the team this spring, while newcomers Jay Vidockler, Pierre Dade and Jeff Kushner have a good chance of making the team next fall. The Bulls have added two scrimmages to their schedule, against teams from local tennis clubs. All this means a lot of work for the tennis Bulls, but, according to Baschnagel, the team’s condition is “100% better than in the fall.” riwl I I -2987 BAILEY AVE 836 3177 OPEN FOR LUNCH TUESDAY THRU FRIDAY EVERY TUESDAY IS 1/2PRICE DAY one, get second at % price i(buy with this ad)! | EVERY WEDNESDAY 95<t OFF ON SUKIYAKI (with this ad) Coupon expires 5/15/74 Page ten The Spectrum Monday, 22 April 1974 . ■ | - . i - .

Volz went to the showers in the second inning, departing after surrending the Bulls’ first eight tallies. Scranton managed only one hit off Buffalo ace Jim Riedel in the contest. Riedel surrendered a line drive single to Tom Sohns in the seventh, and departed after that inning with 11 strikeouts and his second victory of the year. Eighteen walks The Bulls won their “local opener” last Thursday, opening up a nine-run lead against Niagara and fighting off a late Purple Eagle rally: Buffalo pitchers set a record in that contest by issuing 18 walks, but stranded 17 Eagle runners to stem the tide. Dan Gorman paced Buffalo with five RBIs, while Rick Wolstenhobne had four, including a home run. The Bulls, who hosted Eisenhower College yesterday, will face Pittsburgh tomorrow at home, beginning an important five-game stretch that will figure heavily in determining the Bulls’ playoff chances.

Lackawanna protesting school integration order by Gary Cohn Campus Editor Vowing to pursue the case to the Supreme Court if necessary, - Lackawanna school board officials have decided to fight a state order integration calling for widespread busing and the closing of two elementary schools. The integration order issued by State Education Commissioner Ewald Nyquist last week is scheduled to take effect in September 1974. Specifically, it states that the Lackawanna school system must close under-utilized elementary schools and reassign 995 elementary school children to achieve racial - — integration. In ordering the Lackawanna board to implement procedures that will assure a “student body that represents a cross-section of the population of the entire school district” (as set forth in a 1968 Regents position paper), Dr, Nyquist rejected an integration proposal put forth by the Lackawanna school board. school The LACE proposal That proposal, written by the Lackawanna Advisory Council on (LACE), Education recommended; (1) a new high school be built for grades 9-12 for all children in the district; (2) the present high school be converted into a middle school for grades 6-7-8 for all children in the district; and (3) the neighborhood schools be retained for all children K—5 Dr. Nyquist explained that in September 1974 he “accepted tne .plans to build a new high school and convert the present high school into a middle school (but). . rejected the board’s . intent schools, concerning which elementary would have perpetuated segregation.” Thereafter, representatives from Dr. Nyquist’s office met with Lackawanna school board officicals to try to work out a plan. When efforts were schools,” Dr. Nyquist decalred unfruitful, “the superintendent advised that the board of Rather fight than switch v Lackawanna Superintendent of education did not wish to engage in further cooperative endeavors Schools Harold Madar explained to to develop an integration plan that the board of education for the Lackawanna public decided they did not wish to change the original LACE plan for neighborhood schools. The neighborhood school plan calls for children to attend the elementary school in their own neighborhood, rather than busing children across town, Mr. Madar axplained. If there was enough room, he added, a parent could opt to have his child attend another elementary school under an “open admissions” clause. Mr. Madar further said the memebrs of LACE had come from all segments of the Lackawanna community including blacks, ministers, community leaders, parents and city hall officicals. He emphasized that the board of education is not opposed to integration per se, but rather to the use of “cross busing” and the “closing of the two elementary schools” to achieve a fully integrated school system. - Man with a dual role “The community and the board is to the opposed non-acceptance of the plan we submitted,” Mr. Madar explained. However, he said it would be inappropriate to give his personal view because he “works for the board of ed and is an agent of the State Commissioner of —continued on page 17— �m k Social work problems and other welfare concerns were explored by Buffalo Congressman Thaddeus.Dulski and a group of Buffalo residents and students last Tuesday in Norton Hall. Mr. Bulski presides over the Health, Education and Welfare (HEW) committee in the House of Representatives. The discussion group explored the lack of funds for New York State’s welfare programs and the sluggish use of available monies by the state. “If more hinds were allocated for social work by the government. New York would still be shortchanged because money would still have to go to other states,” Congressman Dulski maintained. Funds were not put to their “proper use,” he said, However, one Buffalo resident reported that $15 million allotted to the state and Erie County to train social workers was not properly utilized. The Congressman was asked if some sort service cou. -graduate social area, since graduates had complaining of a lack of positions.

In recent weeks about J2S applications for membership in the Assembly have been submitted, with most requesting service on the budget-weighing Finance Committee. Many of these people, it is charged, will support large allotments for a particular group or club and are not concerned with the well-being of SA as a whole. Many, it is predicted, will drop out of the Assembly after the budget hearings are completed. New Assembly members may vote when they have attended their second meeting. The motion by SA Treasurer Sal Napoli to recess the meeting until 4 p.m. this Monday was designed to keep the newest Assembly members from participating in the crucial budget votes on Monday and Wednesday. “1 find it strange that in the last two weeks, over 25 new people most requesting to be on the Finance Committee have filed membership petitions,” Mr. Napoli observed. — — Budget-time joiners “I believe that most of these people are here for their group, and would not have any kind of concern for other organizations,” he continued. “I would not like to see other clubs harmed; if new members are allowed to vote, unrepresented groups might get shafted.” The motion to recess “would disenfranchise legitimate voters, and needs to be solved by a constitutuional Community Action Corps (CAC) director Mark Carlin. Mr. Carlin maintained that the decision to recess, and hopefully solve the ‘problem’ of budget-time Assembly joiners, was made in a crisis situation and should be considered under better circumstances. “It would be a ‘second wrong',” he asserted. “I object to the [SA ] executive committee’s unethical decision to do this,” declared Assembly member Martin Brooks. The recess motion was “tricky,” one speaker commented, “but it will only disenfranchise people who will probably never be here again.” The spokesman noted similar situations in past years when many Assembly members disappeared with the completion of budget considerations. in an immoral situation,” asserted Western New York Public Interest Group (WNYPIRG) Director Paul Mones. ‘They’re trying to Xt\\ a small cadre of people what they can and can’t talk Strange timing “It is not a dirty trick, it’s a legality,” about,” he said.

Others, however, maintain that the 25 new people increase the size of the Assembly by one-third, and that if most of them leave after the budget votes, the Assembly will face severe problems with the credibility of any given vote. ' In other business, the Assembly voted to recognize Minority Students in Health Related Fields and the newly-formed Educational Opportunity Program Student Association (EOPSA) as special interest groups to be funded. Also discussed were nine non-elected SA positions, an event marked by angry bickering over the appointment process and much confusion with the Assembly Chairman’s interpretation of Robert’s Rules of Order and parliamentary procedure. Appointments approved by Assembly vote were: Undergraduate Research, Bill Atchley; Director of Elections and Credentials, Janet Mrozowski; Director of Publicity, Janice Carver; Drictor of Public Information, Glenn Gabai; Assistant Treasurer, Carol Stykes; Speakers Bureau Chairman, Stanley Morrow; North Campus Coordinator, Karen Itell. WNYPIRG fears that less than $25,000 will cripple organization by Sparky Alzamora Contributing Editor Faced with a possible slash in the $25,000 requested from the Student Association (SA), the Western New York Public Interest Group (WNYPIRG) may be unable to function efficiently and might cease to exist next year. Disagreements between WNYPIRG and the SA Finance Committee which feels too many other groups’ budgets will have to be cut in order to give WNYPIRG the full have resulted in a deadlock concerning how $25,000 much money WNYPIRG will actually receive. Art Lalonde, Project Head for WNYPIRG, said the $25,000 would enable the consumer research organization to join the state-wide parent group, NYP1RG. “With less than $25,000.,” he asserted, “we won’t be able to make a contribution worth their while. According to Mr. Lalonde, the $13,000 SA is reportedly ready to give them “would be a waste of students’ money.” In last October’s referendum, students voted that SA should “re-order its priorities” to fund WNYPIRG. Many politicians running for offices, including SA President Frank Jackalone, pledged during the campaign to give WNYPIRG a $25,000 allocation. - — deciding that certain items in WNYPIRG’s budget could not be funded-. Mr. Schwartz said the $13,000 projected figure was an “off-the-cuff estimate from one of the Finance Committee members.” However, such an allocation would be suelcss in relation to WNYPIRG’s immediate needs, Mr. Schwartz indicated. Professional needs WNYPIRG needs a full-time lawyer and project coordinator, costing an estimated $17,000, Mr. Schwartz explained. The project coordinator would give the projects structural direction and a lawyer would aid in research and take all questionable matters to court. The Finance Committee reportedly considers the need for these professionals “top-heavy,” but Mr. Schwartz argued that without either one, “The organization wouldn’t be worth anything.” SA Treasurer Sal Napoli admitted that WNYPIRG’s budgetary request was “justified,” but the additional request for the project coordinator and lawyer (plus two work-study people) may be more than SA can afford. Mr. which WNYPIRG Napoli said the $13,000 figure members are saying the Finance Committee has decided upon for their allocation “did not ring a bell” and might be merely a “pressure tactic” which would not be considered. - — Reasonable figure Gary Schwartz, WNYPIRG Treasurer, believes $25,000 was a “reasonable figure to ask for.” While this represents a significant rise over last year’s $3000 budget, Mr. Schwartz feels WN YPIRG’s operating efficiency would also increase comparatively. Along with Donald Ross, Director of NYPIRG, Mr. Schwartz met with the SA Finance Committee in February when most of the promises of financial support for WNYPIRG were made. However, in a meeting earlier this month, Mr. Schwartz felt the Finance Committee refused to “face the issues,” Lower level Mr. Napoli added that WNYPIRG could function on less than $25,000, but not at the same level as the consumer group originally intended. Finance Committee member Michael Phillips expressed a stronger opinion against WNYPIRG’s budget hopes, arguing that the money requests for a project coordinator and a lawyer were unjustifiable. “Most JILLYs Happy Birthday In —Santos Paul Mones organizations work with a small staff and build up to a level of competency,” while WNYP1RG wants to rise “from a level of nothing,” Mr. Phillips said. ‘They claimed they lacked the supervision during their efforts this year,” Mr. Phillips added, “but the fault is within themselves.” The $25,000 that would enable WNYPIRG to join state-wide NYP1RG will all stay on this campus, to be used for the consumer research the group undertakes, such as supermarket and drug-pricing .surveys this year. As part of the agreement, NYPIRG would pay WNYPIRG’s share estimates range from $4000 and up of running the state organization, since mandatory fees cannot be used for an outside organization. The PIRGs at other state campuses are charged $3 per student; The $25,000 allocation is a compromise so that after a one-year trial, students could decide whether it was worth funding WNYPIRG at a higher level. But that $25,000 allocation is now in doubt. — — from all of us! Friday, 19 April 1974 The Spectrum Page three . . �Interdisciplinaryapproach Broader attitude toward health by Linda Wagner Spectrum Staff Writer Suppose you get sick. You go to the campus health clinic and a nurse asks what your problem is and writes down your complaints. Then you see the doctor, who orders lab tests. After you receive the results, you find that you have a problem requiring a specialist. You see the specialist, who orders more lab tests and a fex X-rays. After deciding upon a diagnosis, the doctor gives you a prescription, which the pharmacist fills. Nurse, general practioner, lab technician, medical you’ve seen specialist. X-ray technician, pharmacist them all. All of them, purportedly, serve the same function making and keeping you well. This common function lies behind current efforts among faculty, administrators and students in Health Sciences at this University to create an interdisciplinary approach to the education of health professionals. shared by a variety of health professionals, such as anatomy, physiology and nutrition. Also, health professionals have many common problems such as medico-ethical questions,, the management of health care services, the difficulty of dealing with sickness every day, and the administration of drugs, he added. Andy Doniger, a medical student and member of the - - Interdisciplinary conference planned Students and faculty are planning a “Conference on interdisciplinary cooperation among health science students," to take place Wednesday, April 24th. Meanwhile, Dr. Norm Mohl, chairperson of the Academic Planning Committee Council of Health Science Senators, is preparing a budget proposal for a health-science-wide nutrition course beginning in the 197S-76 academic year. “The delivery of health care is an interdisciplinary process,” said Dr. Donald A. Larson, professor of Biology and Vice President for Health Sciences. “Thus, the education of health professionals should be an interdisciplinary process,” he added. Thfe interdisciplinary approach is intended to increase understanding among health science students of the training and roles of other health professionals, and thus, to lead to greater cooperation between professionals in the clinical area of health delivery. The final goal is the improvement of health care for the patient, according to Dr. Larson. “Committee for Community Responsibility and Social Affairs,” noted the need for health professionals working together in the field to remember that “everybody is a human being.” He also warned of the “subtle process of learning to adopt a role toward other health professionals” in medical school. Mr. Doniger, along with other students in the nursing, pharmacy, dental and medical schools, have planned a conference on interdisciplinary cooperation.

Anders, pediatric psychiatrist, and Jeff Koup, a senior pharmacy student. After the presentation, the audience will break into informal groups to discuss the issues raised. Refreshments will be served. Irene Mahar, associate professor of Community Health, chaired a group of faculty members from the schools of pharmacy, dentistry, health-related professions, and social policy, which developed a course entitled, "Multi-disciplinary processes in health care delivery.” The course, which was first offered in Spring 1972, was offered again this semester as an elective. However, conflicts with the clinical schedules of medical, dental and pharmacy students made it impossible for them to register for the course. Since the registered students were not representative of the various health science disciplines, the course was dropped, according to Ms. Mahar. Nutrition emphasized “Extreme student interest” exists for such courses, said Ms. Mahar, adding, “I personally feel that courses of this nature should be offered every semester.” She cited publicity and scheduling as the major difficulties encountered in offering the course. “It takes a great effort to develop new courses in the health sciences,” said Dr. Norm Mohl. Health Science 's Bureau SA 11rin rrir niTMTlSlffi/ltStfii Yi V : •* departments are understaffed, the faculty already have large workloads, and most of the students’ schedules are filled with required courses. Dr. Mohl explained. However, Dr. Mohl will ask for funds from the 1975-76 state budget to develop a nutrition program in the health sciences. “The object is to bring in new individuals who are experts in nutrition to teach on all levels here,” he said, noting that a University-wide course in nutriton is part of the proposal. According to Dr. Mohl, the nutriton program would serve two functions: 1) it is an area of common interest to all health science professionals, and 2) it is an important component of preventive health care. While noting that “first, people in the health science fields have to be- educated in nutrition,” he also emphasized the need for public education and research into nutrition. A modest program in nutrition “may be possible” for the 1974-75 academic year, said Dr. Mohl. Women’s pre-law meeting Women pre-law students are asked to attend a special meeting on Saturday, April 20th, at 10:30 a.m. The featured speaker will be Judith Younger, Dean-Elect of the Syracuse University School of Law, who will speak on “Women and the Legal Profession.” Female faculty and students from the U.B. Law School will also be present and participate in a panel discussion. �SC ATE considered for replacing ACT system Spectrum Staff Writer After arguments were rehashed for and against reorganizing the program that utilizes student evaluations of their professors, the Faculty-Senate, with a bare quorum, voted to pass Physics professor Jonathan Reichert’s motion last Tuesday. In a controversial ruling on the vote, Faculty-Senate Chairman Gilbert Moore ordered that the motion had passed as a “substitute motion” rather than a technically different “amendment by total substitution.” His ruling is questionable because if the motion is interpreted as an “amendment by total substitution," a second vote would have been necessary. However, a second vote would not have been binding due to the loss of a mandatory quorum. Dr. Moore expects his ruling- to be challenged at the next Faculty-Senate meeting. With this in mind. Dr. Moore has written to President Robert Ketter to explain the circumstances. Dr. Ketter will probably not act on the motion until after the next Senate meeting,, presently scheduled for May 7, sources in the Senate indicated. Ambiguous results Dr. Reichert’s motion was based on another motion introduced by the Faculty-Senate Committee on Teaching Effectiveness. The Committee submitted an exhaustive report on the Analysis of Courses and Teaching (ACT) instrument to the Faculty-Senate on April 2. Among the report’s findings were the following: 1) “Faculty responses strongly suggest that instructors find it difficult to use the compiled. ACT evaluations as a guide to how fhey might improve their own teaching performance,” which defeats one of the main goals of the ACT program; 2) Apparently, one must be a veritable statistician to interpret the results; 3) There is marked reluctance on the part of a significant portion of individuals [willing] to participate in the process; 4) It is generally conceded that the current ACT questionnaire is not suitable for evaluation of clinical faculty; 5) ACT has failed to provide information to students. In addition, students find the ratings hard to interpret.” Due to the widespread discontent with the program, the Committee recommended developing a continuing program “to promote quality instruction on this campus.” Its most innovative and important recommendation was creating a Center for Instructional Development which would help professors improve their teaching effectiveness. Separate questionnaires? In eyes of Dr. Reichert, the Committee’s report missed on two vital points. The report urged that an “experimental” program be continued. However, Dr. Reichert does not want to continue the program experimentally because he feels that an experimental venture won’t be taken as seriously as a mandatory system. This is included in his motion. In order to improve the questioning instrument itself. Dr. Reichert emphasized decentralizing the system. His motion states that “the seven individual Faculty units shall constitute their own teaching evaluation committee with significant representatives from both the undergraduate and graduate student population of their faculties.” This will force each Faculty to design an instrument best suited to its needs. The new motion also intends to include students on the Center of Instructional Development: “It (the Center] shall work with each Faculty unit and its provost to help establish faculty-student [both undergraduate and graduate] committees on teaching evaluation.” ■ 1 rv “* Public or private? One concession that Dr. Reichert has made is to give faculty units discretion to release the results of the evaluations. He explains this as a political move to appease those faculty members who are frightened of having their profiles made public. Carefully worded in the motion to urge greater publicity for the results, Dr. Reichert writes: “Individual faculty units shall, for the immediate future, determine the extent of the dissemination of the information gathered.” Taking exception only to the fact that the results will not be made immediately mandatory, James E. McConnell, chairman of the Committee on Teaching Effectiveness, has praised the motion. Debate was, for the most part, in favor of the motion, including a plea from Charles Ebert, dean of Undergraduate Education, to preserve an evaluation program. “I know that I have learned from student evaluations in the past,” Dr. Ebert told the Faculty-Senate. “I have a tendency to speak too fast when I lecture, and I have only learned this from evaluation,” the Dean continued. He also urged that the results be made mandatory throughout the University. $100,000 or $39.28? George Hochfield, Faculty-Senate chairman-elect, argued fervently against the motion, pointing out that the motion creates more bureaucracy by creating eight committees instead of one central one. “We’ve asked the Admipistration to 'support, wifiT Tunas, me Colleges to the best of their ability,’’, he said. We>e asked the Administration to support to the best of their ability other pieces of legislation, he continued: “Do we want to spend an amount somewhere in the neighborhood of $100,000 for a program whose goals are extremely obscure?” Dr. Hochfield asked the Senate. The response was applause. The $100,000 figure was shot down by William Allen, professor of History, who noted that the History’s Department own evaluation program cost $39.28. The idea of making a questioning instrument better suited to the University as a whole, and of getting students involved with teachers to design the questionnaire, was attempted for the Spring *73 questionnaire, explained Bruce Francis, former associate director of the ACT program and assistant professor of Higher Education. “Except that we used one questionnaire for the whole University,” he said, unlike Dr. Reichert’s plan for a different questionnaire for each Faculty. “Dr. Reichert’s idea is a good one,” Dr. Francis added. The possibility for a University SCATE (Student Course And Teaching Evaluations) appears to be growing, according to SA Academic Affairs Coordinator Mark Humm. “We can plug into Dr. Reichert’s proposal very well,” he claimed. “We are planning for a literary’ type SCATE; a synopsis of courses and teachers.

Linder Petition for Lawler A committee of students and faculty has I initiated a petition campaign calling for the reappointment of Philosophy professor James Lawler. Dr. Lawler was recommended for reappointment by the Philosophy Department, his department chairman, the Personnel Committee of the Faculty of Social Sciences, and the acting Provost of Social Sciences, yet was rejected by the office of vice-president for Academic Affairs, Bernard Gelbaum. Students and faculty from all departments are invited to circulate petitions; they J can be picked up at the Student Association office, Room 205 Norton Hall. * - • , * ” More than meets the eye... The wares of the Browsing Library-Music Room; located on the second floor of Norton Hall, reflects the current literary and musical trends within theTJniversity community. “We feel that students should know more about the services offered to the students and faculty by the Browsing Library-Music Room,” said one staff member. “Very few people know that books may be taken out for two-week intervals.” The Browsing Library contains 158 periodicals, various newspapers, including The New York Timess, Village Voice, and Rolling Stone, and a wide variety of magazines. The 3000 books range from current novels to classics and art books. The library has ordered dance books and some of the more recent works of poetry. A moratorium on overdue books will be held from April 28-May 3. During this time, students or faculty will not be charged overdue fees as long as the books are returned. Rock ’n roll, popular jazz, blues, folk and classical music can be listened to in the adjacent Music Room. The entire classical collection and some of the popular music may be borrowed for a three-day period. “It’s a nice place to come and read or relax,” said the staff member. “We always like to hear suggestions from the people who use our facilities concerning any new. records or books which would be worthwhile for the library to purchase. We are trying to make it so that more people become aware of all that we offer.” 9 M 1 %) Reproduce in 355 Norton Hali CvV ANCE1 5 J WHAT’S OUR BAG? knit Ar Mod Clothes, double knit baggies, lean suits, slacks, shirts, tops the latest in or bottoms for Guys or Gals from tiny to huge szes.

Senator Marchi's most misleading in the student newspaper controversy is that he was nobly trying to protect the "rights" of students who did not want their fees used to support their student newspaper. Mandatory student activity fees are only mandatory because the students them as such in periodic approve referendums. And students do determine whether campus publications should be funded at all through their elected representatives in student government. Although student fees are not public tax money but a self-imposed fee for student benefit, Albany periodically plays politics with the fees by trying to determine how they can be spent. SUNY Central in Albany also gets into the act, as with its recent negative ruling on using fees for health care. which President Ketter is now appealing to — . — newspaper, not with the government. . . . the Trustees. But if students can't use their fees for newspapers and health care if Albany says, OK, kids, you can only spend your money on movies and concerts then the mandatory fee wilt become useless. At that point, student governments might opt to collect their own voluntary activity fee, attempting to overcome the problem that people wouldn't pay it by making its benefits attractive enough at low cost so that its advantages would provide an irresistable incentive. Students are growing tired of being told by Albany bureaucrats how they can spend their $67 fee. The mandatory system has worked well, but it may be headed for extinction if the state does not abandon its attempts to completely control the fee for their own political purposes. — — * Page six The Spectrum . . To the Editor. compiled intensive profiles of area legislators, done a supermarket-pricing survey, instituted a state law banning unsafe toys, colored the high prices or prescription drugs, and investigated local telephone rates and proposed a dormitory switchboard which could save each dorm student $2 a month and now it is asking for only $1.50 per student this year. All students are consumers, and the entire University will benefit from the valuable consumer research WNYPIRG will be capable of with an adequate budget. Finding the $25,000 for WNYPIRG by cutting other areas will not be easy, but SA owes it to the students to carry out their mandate by fully funding this vital consumer - group. Friday, 19 April 1974 It is with considerable dismay that I read Ms. Dian» Miller’s report on the organizational meeting of the Committee Against Racism which appeared in The Spectrum of April 15th. I realize that in a lively discussion such as the one held last Wednesday with a number of panel members as well as many speakers from the floor, it is easy to mis-quote or what I think has happened in this case assign a quote or paraphrase made by one speaker to another. As a faculty member who is concerned about racism in American society it is particularly disturbing to be mis-quoted in a manner which may well lead to devisiveness. Specifically, I did not say “Racism is one of Ketter’s weapons- to divide us.” I did not suggest that the “Committee Against Racism publically opposed The Spectrum, Ethos and the EOP Program.” 1 did not say that I “would like to see faculty, students and parents and organizations like SU unite with labor unions to create unity.” I did not accuse either Professor John Halstead or Professor Paul Kurtz of being racists, nor did 1 say that The Spectrum, Ethos and Humanist magazines are all racist. Communication between black and white, between faculty, students and administration is difficult enough without this sort of gross inaccuracy. Roger R. Woock Professor 19th century behavior mod and why WNYPIRG must be funded Students mandated 3-to-1 last fall's . in referendum that the consumer group WNYPIRG was a top priority. Despite the annual fiscal crunch. Student Association has a responsibility to "re-order its priorities" and fund WNYPIRG at the promised $25,000 level. This will of course necessitate drawing monies from other areas. A $25,000 budget, would enable WNYPIRG to join state wide NYPIRG, but WNYPIRG's contribution to NYPIRG would be subsidized by others for a one-year trial run, with the $25,000 exclusively benefiting University students. The consumer group is asking $9000 for a staff lawyer, $8000 for a project coordinator, and minimal expenses for projects and travel. This year, with a npthing budget, WNYPIRG has done a sex-discrimination employment study. Racist remarks misquoted — playing politics with fees . argument . The rapidity with which Mr. March! was able to line up the conservative votes for his repressive bill is unnerving, and should serve as a warning to students to fiercely resist any future attempts to put the government in the editor's seat. But college newspapers must recognize that the freedom to publish is also the responsibility to refrain from libel or offensive obscenity. But that responsibility as well as the subjective determination of what is offensive must remain with the student editors who publish each campus To the Editor. I would like to call your attention to a laxity in research in your article on Behavior Modification, in which you stated that the “token economy was pioneered in the 1960’s.” The fact is that such a practice was used in the early 19th century, during the period of “reform” of mental asylums (v. Michel Foucault, Madness and Civilization). At the time however, there was a much more direct relationship between “behavior problems” and the expanding industrial economy, although the affinity of behavioralism with American capitalism, despite protestations of “scientific objectivity, becomes more evident with each apology that appears. One might also remember that a person can be declared legally insane today in certain states for such disorders as gambling, idleness, improvidence, a “wasteful course of conduct,” and for being a spendthrift (Allen, Ferster, &Weihofen, Mental Impairment and Legal Jncompptency, 1968). James Leigh �No grasp of theology V*. Through th.e ooking C rltiBa To the Editor: Mr. Kaplan has a great grasp of cynicism, but of theology, Jewish or Christian. Three essential points of Christian theology he should non? by Barry Kaplan know about; - The past few years have witnessed a rapid slide in student enrollment in what has been traditionally labeled “the humanities.” The subjects that loosely fit into this category were once considered vital to a person’s education, and without a “general” education, a student of the sciences would be blandly labeled a technician. However, the recent emphasis upon sciences and “practical skills” has eroded the once-supreme position of the humanities, and if this trendcontinues, it could have enormous implications for our future. For without the broaioverview, all of the practical education in the world will not fill the void left by de-emphasizing the humanities. Part of the blame rests upon the disciplines themselves, for they have become complacent and stodgy over the years; self-confident that the world would never pass them by. All of us can remember that pleasant spring day when a dull, boring; unconcerned professor recited his set speech whether it pertained to English romantic poetry, the meaning of man’s existence, or some obscure fact that happened to be his dissertation thirty years ago. This type of education is not limited to the humanities, however in an age where relevance and understanding are paramount, a poor humanities class is a sure death warrant for further student interest. For many years, these departments were bouyed by the stark guidelines ofacademic life that required students to take humanities courses, whether they wanted to or not. These human sacrifices sat through the courses and after their education was “got,” relegating the trivia of the humanities to the dark and deserted recesses of their minds. One of the greatest losers in the eternal search for student minds has been the various history departments in America’s colleges. Squeezed between the new, progressive courses offered by “free” schools and the lack of rigid educational requiremerTts, the history departments have suffered, and looked inward In order to revise In wwar their teaching methods, as well as what they are supposed to teach. Historians and their discipline have been stereotyped as dull, factual, unimaginative and elitist in nature. As a graduate student in history now writing my dissertation, of course my bias would be obvious; however, I feel it’s important to show what history is all about, and dispel the dull decay that is linked with history. As a teacher in my own course and as a graduate assistant, 1 have been constantly barraged with comments that relegated.history to the scrapheap of the educational system. Either history was a string of facts about people that had no relation to reality, or history was just dates, names and wars with no coherence or thematic web. Unfortunately, these students, already soured on history by unimaginative high school rote teaching, fail to grasp the fact that history is simply the story of people’s lives all people. All too often students memorized facts and were required to regurgitate these facts at the 1) Redemption is not just for man, it’s also for God. If God had not made redemption possible (the choice whether to accept it is ours), our own actions would damn us to separatiofrom Him. As Mr. Kaplan ably pointed out, we are not perfect. But he forgot that God is. 2) Forgiveness is never one-sided. Forgiveness only allows repentance. And repentance is not a change of attitude nearly as much as it is a change of action. Remember Christ’s words to the adulteress after he had forgiven her; “Now go and sin no more.” (John 8:11) 3) Christ’s resurrection, a fact as well validated as any of ancient times, guarantees the power needed to live the Christian life. So called Christians who don’t follow Christ, like the Pharisees, fail to fool not only Mr. Kaplan; they don’t fool God. But it is not the hypocrites Mr. Kaplan must explain; it is the resurrected Christ. Jonathan H.

Miller, who covered the April 10th Forum of the Committee Against Racism, attributed several statements that were in fact made by me to another panelist, Dr. Roger Woock. These includedln particular the sharp anti-racist attacks I made upon UB personnel: Ketter, Halstead and Kurtz, as well as The Spectrum, Ethos and the Humanist. Considering the political reprisals the UB administration has recently made against James Lawler, such misquotes by The Spectrum reporters could conceivably lead to further headaches. Charles Reitz Labor Party Progressive — The SpccT^iiM without thought or real appropriate times insight. Of course, the history of one bill or another, the tracing of international bloodshed, or glorified portraits of yesterday’s heroes, night be enough to drive anyone from the study of history. Yet history is a story of the changing lifestyles of humans, of changing thought and recreational patterns, of changing modes of governmental thought, of different modes of dress it is the charted path that humanity has chosen to follow. Do you wish to understand present problems? The past has the patterns that if traced properly, could peel away the rhetoric and reveal the bare essence of human existence. Maybe you just like a good story; history is full, of fanciful yarns, improbable actions, and they all happened one time or another up on the face of this planet. History, besides possessing the key to today’s problems, is also a method to chart our own personal growth. Although supposed social and cultural revolutions occur every few years, a little background in history would be helpful in understanding present societal changes. We could understand where our ideas and beliefs originated; we could contrast our lives with our predecessors in order to obtain a wider perspective upon our own lives. Of course history, if presented properly, is intrinsically fascinating and spellbinding in its own right. To those people, like myself, who have definite Walter Mitty-ish tendencies, the delving into the past armed with historical hindsight, can be a worthwhile and utterly enjoyable enterprise. History as a discipline has grown and adapted new fields and techniques of study. The use of computers has uncovered a treasure grove of heretofore ignored sources and people. History is concerned about people, how they lived, died, loved, worshipped, played and what they believed. “History from the bottom up” promoted by supposed radical historians, is just another method for students to trace the heritage - Culture, the history of the movies, radio, mass consumption, styles, and other aspects of society that previous historians dismissed as trivia or trash, is one course of study that can bridge the chasm between generations. Popular culture of any period reveals to us the Zeitgeist of that time, and uncovers the major factors that revolutionized people’s lives. Cto you feel a gap with your values and those of your parents? If you do, maybe if you studied your parents’ lives through a popular history course, as given by Dr. Plesur, you might have more compassion and understanding for the values of an earlier generation. It would seem that I have emphasized various reasons for studying history; s#me that history professors might object to, as being too too relevant. Yet imagine yourself presentist 50 years from now and some hot-shot historian wants to know about the decades of the ’60s and the i’70s. Your story is history that story is what your life was all about. - — Friday, 19 April 1974 Vol. 24.

M* -*■ BLT * Questionable support To the Editor: Your statement in the “extra” edition of Friday’s The Spectrum, that students faculty, and administrators on any state campus would overwhelmingly support the funding of a student newspaper cannot be contended. However, whether students, faculty and administrators on any state campus would overwhelmingly support the funding of their present student newspaper is highly questionable. from Buffalo April 12,1974 It’s not easy being a law-and-oidcr Republican these days. The 'magic aura of a tough-minded administration bestowing its golden touch upon fortunate local candidates by a condescending President in Washington is a thing of the past. Now, as a half-dozen recent elections testify, the touch of President Nixon is touch of death. James Sparling Ir. learned this lesson the hard way last Tuesday in a special Congressional election held in. Michigan’s eighth district. A traditional Republican in a traditionally Republican area, Mr. Sparling could normally be counted on to win handily, regardless of the caliber of his foe. A last-minute visit by President Nixon to northern Michigan apparently sealed the doom of the man he As stated in your consitution, the purpose of your newspaper is “to provide stimulating coverage of events for the academic community,” “to foster effective dissemination news thru-out the campus and Western N.Y.,” and to “stimulate awareness.” In short, its purpose is educational.. However, people within and outside of this academic newspaper and I feel that your newspaper has too often violated their dignity and integrity: The April Fools issue and the Christmas issue have proved this. I therefore find it hard to believe that you always are pursuing your purpose as stated in your constitution. In view of the legislature's attempt to prohibit the use of student fees to support your newspaper, it therefore would be a good idea to take an introspective look at what you have been doing and at what your purpose is. Philip set out to help. There was no chance for this election to escape the national limelight; just as the five previous ones since Mr. Nixon’s and the Republican party’s problems began mounting earlier in the year could not go unnoticed. The effect was to transform a local ballot into a national opinion poll which would be eagerly used by the Democrats to denounce the President if the electorate repudiated him or used to defend Mr. Nixon in the wake of crippling public opinion polls if the voters chose his Republican favorite. One gets the impression that nowhere in this complex lineup was there room for either Mr. Sparling or Bob Traxler, his Democratic opponent. Judging from the statements issued after the election by both sides, the election process was indeed the voice of the entire nation. The somewhat comic sight of several hundred over-anxious Democratic campaign workers cheering for the impeachment of Richard Nixon and extolling the mandate received by the Democrats from the people of Middle America (once the haunting grounds of the silent majority) to purge the government of the corruption Mr. Nixon has brought to it is enough to arouse uispicion from even the most resolute supporter of nnmediate impeachment. The election has been blown way out of proportion. It started out as a local election and let no one fool you, that is exactly what it wound up as. The only ones who cast their ballots were those living in Saginaw, Badaxe,- and the surrounding vicinity. Ballooning the Democratic victory into a reflection of the mood of the country and a prelude oLUhings to come next November is as gross an exaggeration as those made by Mr. Nixon only a few short weeks ago when he regarded cheering crowds in Houston and Baton Rouge as a sure indicator that the people of the nation were behind him. The Democratic party fully intends to capitalize on the scandals tied to the Nixon administration. When asked about the developing situation where every obscure candidate ia every far-strung district tuns not against his opponent but against the record of Richard Nixon, Democratic chairman Robert Strauss could only comment, “Well, the Democrats managed to run against Hoover for 30 years.” Is that Smith — A fable To the Editor. “What a happy body you are!” said the Legislative Body to the Student Press. “Be good enough to lie still while I walk upon you, descanting upon the blessings of civil liberty and freedom of the press. In the meantime you can relieve your feelings censorship of the media by the “My public servants have been fools and rogues from the date of your accession to power,” replied the Press; “my administration and faculty are corrupt; the restrictions placed upon me are unbearable; the members of this community are fools all my affairs are in d sorder and criminal t confusion.” “That is all very true,” said the Legislative Body, putting on its spiked shoes; “but consider how trivial this all will be come summer, especially on the Fourth of July.” — Ambrose Bierce ■ ■■ what we are in for? Is the dirt that hat come out of Washington since the Watergate scandal going to lead only to continued party bickering? What about the pledged reforms and subsequent cleanup of government promised on all levels? It’s going to be easy to forget about all this if the Democrats content themselves with waving the bloody flag for the next decade. The real significance of what happened in Michigan, and what happened earlier in Ohio, Pennsylvania and in Gerald Ford’s old Michigan district, is that it serves merely as a preview of things to come. Next fall, when the entire House of Representatives is up for re-election, the intensity of the political speculation will make everything that happens now look trite. No doubt most candidates who lack the confidence in their own qualifications will resort to attacking the Republican administration in general and Mr. Nixon in particular. The sheer number of the races will prevent national attention from focusing on too many of them. By that time it is quite possible that the electorate will, as Mr. Nixon ardently hopes, forget about the Watergate scandal and return to the business of running the country. If that happens, it can only be blamed on those alleged anti-Nixon Democrats, champions of justice, whose only announced intent is to rid the White House of corruption. If they continue to use the Repbulican setbacks as a tool for increasing their controlling power, then they have failed to serve the interest of the country and have in effect, replaced one form of corruption with another. This new form may prove even more deadly because it is not as sensational and will never arouse the anger that the blundering incompetent corruption of the Nixon administration has. It is the type of corruption that places personal and party interest above the interest of the country and slowly bleeds the people of everything they have. In the haste to chastise and punish the President and his Republican supporters (who deserve to be taken to task), let us not confuse the issues and resort to arming ourselves with the same weapons and using the same tactics that we denounce in our opposition. Mr. Nixon should be impeached for the crimes he and his staff have committed; not for the political expediencies beneficial to the Democrats. The effort to convict him or force him to step down should not be turned into a political circus for the benefit of thousands of hungry spectators and a handful of shrewd Democratic tacticians whose sights are set on the Presidential election of 1976. The support is already lining up. Big labor has stuck its neck onthe line by calling for impeachment and thus gambling on the support of Democrats who hope to realign themselves with the funds and influence of the big unions. Liberal press groups repeat the demands for impeachment to a saturation level where there exists nothing but confusion and clouded issues. Every old-line conservative Democrat is slowly assuming a more energetic stance on the impeachment issue and thus associating himself with the expected upcoming re-exertion of liberal power that will supposedly throw Mr. Nixon out of office. The country will be no better off by throwing President Nixon out of the White House unless steps are taken to prevent such abuses in the future. The relaxation of conscience that followed the apparent end of the war in Indochina will probably do a repeat performance. Just as the war went on, the corruption will go on; the only major difference being the many eased consciences of those sitting back and congradulating themselves for doing something for their country. -Michael O’Neill Volunteer readership To the Editor. ■ Since coming to UB, I have been a regular reader of The Spectrum. News reports, editorials, special features, columns I read them all. Quite frankly, 1 was not impressed. The only thing that every really impressed me about the newspaper was its taste, which I thought stunk. To what am I referring here? There was the Raggedy Ann Christmas Cover, of course, but there were lots of other things as well. Blacks get insulted (“the Bull Shit Union”), Jews got insulted (“Jewish racist pig mother fuckers”), even Grateful Dead fans got insulted (“shit, they’re assholes”). These quotes stand out in my mind, not because of any innate outrageousness (though there was plenty of that), but because they were so completely gratuitous, so totally unwarranted. One idiot sends in a letter and The Spectrum publishes it; ten other idiots get mad, send in more letters, and those get published too. Why? I called Mr. Kurtz once and asked him. He said they were expressions of sentiment in the community, deserving of communication, and deserving of other expressions to balance them? This was Howie Kurtz’s perception of his editorial function. He has a right to that perception, of course, as I have a right to my own perception of his performance (Intellectual Trash-Compactor of - Page eight. The Spectrum . Linear Media). And, if I got upset, there wasn’t too much that I could do, other than an occasional letter to the editor such as this one. Now, The Spectrum isn’t the only newspaper that upsets me. The Times sometimes does it, the Courier-Express sometimes does it, even the Jewish Daily Forward sometimes does it. But when that happens, there’s a difference. There is something I can do. I can not buy it! In all of my time at UB, I have never been able to not buy The Spectrum. That is, I discovered, upon registering, that my fees entitled me to a year’s subscription. “Entitled” is the wrong word, of course; I had to subscribe. ‘And while I didn’t actually have to pick up a copy and read it, there was still that subscription of mine, which I didn’t want to waste. So three times a week The Spectrum would be waiting for me ih Norton, dumped in the lobby like cowslop in a feed-pen. It was better than Food Service there were always seconds. And there was never anything I could do about it. Last Friday I learned that the N.Y. State Legislature is doing something about it. I am glad. I have never been able' to understand why my attending a state university should entail my receiving both an education and a student newspaper. Nor have I understood how The Spectrum could ever explain away the fact that its Friday, 19 April 1974 circulation had so little to do with its merits as a paper, though it did just that in its special Friday edition. In all the screaming it engaged in, in all of its righteous tantrum-throwing, there was absolutely no mention of the possibflity that The Spectrum might, just might, be able to survive on its own. Why is that? Why has The Spectrum chosen to exist as a parasite, when there are countless self-sustaining student newspapers in existence. The United States can survive with a volunteer army; why can’t Tfie Spectrum survive with a volunteer readership? It now appears that the Legislature has taken this matter out of your hands, in which case I would like to welcome you to the real world, where, quite honestly, no one owes you anything. May you survive and prosper, and may you have all the readers you deserve. Sam Kazman — Editor’s note: The Spectrum is the most self-sufficient student newspaper on any State University campus, with three-quarters of its revenue coming from advertising. Additionally, the amount of student fees which benefit The Spectrum, or whether it shall receive any funds at all, is determined by the students’ elected representatives in student government. �: • t »tw Rirtdl Schnur Assistant Arts Editor ar. * £M9SI ' J.V'i ,, >1 .* -*•, j' v; *';?*’t-^ The big bank robbers of the Depression Era are among the most popular of the many folk heroes the American public has created. Whether loved or feared and most often they generated both emotiohs simultaneously they personified both the Great American Dream of the upward climb to "success," and our desire for revenge against the incomprehensible and overwhelming forces which stripped to many people of everything they owned. This, as we all know by now, is the stuff of which legends are made. Authors like Edward Anderson, who wrote the novel Thieves Like Us in 1937, understood this potential right away and directors like Robert Altman, who has just translated Anderson's book onto film (actually first done in 1949 by Nicholas Ray with They Live By Night), have still not lost sight of it The thieves in question are three men T-Dub (Bert Remsen), a graying, amiable man whose two missing toes have not prevented him from robbing 37 banks; Chickamaw (John Schuck), who laughs like a hyena at his own atrocious jokes and loves love, drink, and robbing banks, more or less in that order; and Bowie (Keith Carradine), a 23-year-old country boy whose coming of age is the film's most carefully traced development. We follow them from a small-time stick-up done in overalls on a country road, to fame and fortune, with photographs and the words "$100 REWARD!" printed in ReaI Detective magazine, and on through the inevitable catastrophic climaxes. - - — Thieves Like Us' Details ofDepression era legends — ip I li Middle-class criminals Along the way, T-Dub becomes married and middle-class, and Chickamaw, tagging alopg behind r ,i)inrv, grp^f-into a sullen drunk whose behavior border* very dangerously on the psychopathic.

Here, minus the make-up and fancy clothes, she is the essence of the child-woman. With the voice and body of a twelve-year-old boy, she turns herself into a woman as soon as she begins to love Bowie. She has an almost magical power to go back and forth at will, and seems just as comfortable-arm-wrestling as she does house-hunting. We last see her trying to start a conversation with a stranger in a lonely railroad station, and we are given no clues as to whether her pregnancy, also lonely,,will deprive her of that power; but it seems to be all that she has. The rest of the actors range from very adequate to excellent. Chickamaw's Heavy load The film is so loaded with period details that a lesser company might not have been able to keep it from sinking into the widening morass of patronizing campiness. Altman, however, keeps his background where it belongs, and the characters are nearly always more interesting than their hairstyles or the music they listen to. Qf the four main roles, Shelley Duvall's Keechie is the most sensitive and successful. Altman last used her as the slightly demented Astrodome guide turned TuY. il l l lllll 'l l l transition from good-humored vulgarity to unyielding hostility was a bit sudden, and coulcj have done with some more explanation; his occasional bursts of violence are too jarring to be passed over so quickly. But such relatively minor flaws don't really detract from the quality of the film as a whole. Thieves Like Us is well-directed, beautifully acted, and well worth the trip to the Amherst Theater. �Full evening oflively comedy playlets on ElmwoodA venue Tomorrow night Ray Davies and the Kinks will be slippin' and a slidin' into Buffalo’s Century Theater.

Entertaining parody of twenties musicals by Michael Silvetblatt Contributing/Editor , s> ' "■ Certainly; James Waring's Titanic Love is silly and frivolous. It is alsd delightful. It is probably the most entertaining and professional production I've seen at this school. The piece is "an anthology" of musical comedy songs, cleverly strung together in a skeletal parody of musical comedy structure. Arthur Williams, who wrote the book for the musical, is clearly familiar with all the tricks and cliches of musical comedy plotting. Without belaboring a single hoary turn, he succeeds in creating a lovable pastiche. So many of these 'endeavors (Little Mary Sunshine, Dames at Sea, Curly McDImple) become tedious because they simultaneously insist on the value of the worV they're parodying and the idiocy of that same work Dance and gesture Titanic Love is deft, funny, and restrained. It does not trip itself up in the paradox of parodying a mode that it intends to expose as stupid from the start. In other words, it consistently points out its love for the twenties their professionalism, musicals their slickness, their 'odd worldly — V innocence, their surprising vocabulary of dan’cp and gesture. It is hardly an original observation that love songs in musical comedies can be "read" as a kind of courtship ritual. At the same time, hardly anyone has commented on the extraordinary vocabulary of musical comedy gestures, gestures almost' as expressive as the physical postures of a pantomime. Stylish cast James Waring, the Theater Department's visiting choreographer, is particularly sensitive to nuances and gesture. He has exquisitely styled this production in its costuming, its decor, but particularly in its acting. The cast perfectly (and, rarest of all, uniformly) enacts the — postures of the twenties the but slightly cross-eyed "exotic" Miss Irene (beautifully, —, sultry hilariously portrayed by Sally Fox), the sneezy, baggy-pants-ed comedian and his slow-eyed moll (Michael Grodenchik is a marvelous Bert Lahr-ish comic, Elaine Crasser his partner is quite a dancer and very funny their mopey plaint "Cheatin' On Me" was a highlight), the prudish Red Cross nurse who becomes a spicy hubba-hubba temptress when she teaches the boys "a little number" — she learned down in Mexico singing "The shaking her maracas as the chorus "learns" the dance was a zesty touch), the vain actor who wants to display his maroon smoking jacket (Steven Classman, charming on stage for (Diane Zwolinski Kinkajou” and directed all these types, he sets running gags carefully awhirl and they all pay off. The choreography is witty and elegant. I particularly liked Linda Swiniuch's restrained-tap "Doll Dance," and the dead-pan languid tangos arranged for Erneste show and was wryly comic, reminiscent, perhaps of Jerome Robbins early comic ballets.

Slowly, the pieces start to fit together, and we find out why this tape has distressed Harry so much. Outwardly he has given no sign of sensitivity to his work, and has been able to separate it completely from its human aspect. "I don't know anything about human nature,'' he tells his assistant. 'This is my business. It's what I do." Now, however, it has become evident that by having taped the conversation, Harry may bear some responsibility for a future murder. The garbled tape phrase, "He would kill us if he got the chance," shoots through his mind, carrying with it the hidden guilt he has tried to subdue for his unsuspecting role in the murder of a Chicago accountant and his family a few years back. The barriers between his work and the people involved in it begin to break down. Harry cannot try to shrug off another murder resulting from his meddling.

Nik should she complain. Although Ms. Andrews has made many television appearances and played one small movie part, the role of Mary in Caanack is by far her most important to date. Her previous movie role was in the current film Hit, co-starring Richard Pryor and Billy Dee Williams. Ms. Andrews gets another chance to play a drug addict here as Mr. William's teenage daughter who dies from a drug overdose. by Clam Colucci Contributing Editor Tina Andrew* doesn't look like Tina Andrews. In her indeed, in most of her television roles publicity pictures Ms. Andrews looks about 13 years old. When she comes into a room dressed and made up like a real live adult in her mid-twenties you probably won't recognize her. I didn't and I was holding the publicity photo when she walked by. Ms. Andrews was in town last Thursday to plug her new 20th Century-Fox movie Conrack, starring Jon Voight. She and studio publicity people held a press luncheon at the Executive Motor Inn in advance of the movie's opening. In Conrack, Ms. Andrews plays Mary, a young, impoverished girl who drops out of the school Pat Conroy (Jon Voight) runs. Conroy regards her hostility as a challenge and attempts to win her over by hiring her as a cook and housekeeper and trying, using the latest educational methods, to convince her to attend school. — - — — ■ ‘Show business brat' Ms. Andrews was a "show business brat," learning dancing and piano at an early age. Her career progressed in an orderly fashion. There were no "B" movie schticks like a leading lady who breaks a leg on opening night or discoveries in Schwab's Drug Store. Ms. Andrews moved logically from high school and amateur productions and made the endless rounds of auditions that are an essential part of the business. She got small parts in off off-Broadway productions and gradually, though quickly, moved up to larger parts. In praising her role, Ms. Andrews said her earlier parts lacked the depth Mary has. Too many of her past roles have been flat, overly simple characters sweet little children, schoolgirls and drug addicts (her first major role was a 13-year-old drug addict in an off-off-Broadway muscial called This Street). — Familiar role \ Ms. Andres is no stranger to television movies, however. The Weekend Nun, an ABC Movie of the Week starring Joanna Pettet and Vic Morrow featured her as guess, just try to guess yes, a 13-year-old drug addict. This time, though, she lived. She got a chance at a new misfortune in another ABC television movie. The Girls of Huntington House with Shirley Jones, Mercedes McCambridge and William Windom. Ms. Andrews didn't play a drug addict this time. But she was still a teenager, and now an unwed mother. The five foot tall Chicago native got started in television after playing Ermengarde in the national touring company of Hello, Dolly!, starring Pearl Bailey and Cab Calloway. When she left the show, she did commercials and appeared in The Brady Bunch (no drug addicts likely there), Sanford and Son, The Rookies, Mod Squad and in several episodes of Room 222 as “Esther." Ms. Andrews enjoys working with the other members of the Conrack cast, singling out veteran stage and television actor Paul Winfield who makes a cameo appearance because he is a close friend of director Martin Pitt and because he liked the script. Still young, Ms. Andrews seems clearly on the threshhold of a successful career in stage, screen and television. Even under interview conditions that would keep Rex Reed from getting a word out of the most publicity-starved performers in Hollywood, Ms. Andrews gave the impression of being a serious, unaffected young woman who loves her work. Thou#i friendly and pleasant, she is not, surprisingly, a particularly voluble or extroverted person. She is simply a nice, talented person who works hard at her craft, keeps her eyes open for opportunities and takes them as they come. The odds are they will be coming more often now. Tina Andrews Ms. Andrews conveys real enthusiasm for the part and movie. She's selective about the parts she plays, refusing to do black exploitation films or films capitalizing on sex or violence. But she gets work anyway. Since she can so easily be made to look very young, most of Ms. Andrews' roles have been teenage girls. While she does hope to branch out into a greater variety of roles eventually, she doesn't complain about casting directors the 'Super Cops' Battling the urban police bureaucracy by Bill Maraschiello Spectrum Arts Staff The title characters of The Super Cops (Colvin and Towne police Theaters) are NYPD rookies Dave Greenberg (Ron Leibman) and Bobby Hantz (David Selby). Fed up with the technicalities of learning police long sessions directing work traffic, learning the correct size of garbage cans they long to get out street. More on the — — duty, then reassigned to the Bedford-Stuyvesant section of Brooklyn. Knapp The Commission nails them every time they're out of uniform. (I heard so many "Don't make waves" and ''Don't rock the boat'' thought admonitions that I Greenberg and Hantz were in the Shore Patrol.) Yet they continue to make arrests and to get the arrestees convicted. Even the local black kids grow to admire them, dubbing them Batman and Robin. specifically, they want to start making drug busts. (Only for heroin, mind you; we're supposed to like these guys.) They start making off-duty raids, very successful ones too successful, Casually obsessive Greenberg and Hantz are Hawkeye and Trapper John as oops, locking horns with the urban bureaucracy and corruption instead of medical dogma and in fact. Before long, everyone on the decorum. They're happy-go-lucky force (all of whom, of course, are and easy-going and that's on the take) is after them. They exactly the problem. They're not the obsessive types, so why the try bribery, but with no success. The cops are assigned to desk obsession with doing what they see as their duty? The film is happily free from sermons on the evHs of the needle, but no other reason for their actions is given, except for a very weak save-the-children theme that director Gordon Parks plays down to the point of invisibility. Some of the officials try to stop the they because think cops Greenberg and Hantz are dealing themselves, and I can't blame said officials one bit. It's the only rationale that makes any sense. Because there are a real Greenberg and Hantz, whose exploits were recorded in book form by R.H. Whittemore, The Super Cops is touted as "A True Story." To which I respond with a hearty BULLSHIT. I don't know — — the actual facts behind the Greenberg-Hantz tale, but I do know when somebody's attempting to take me — namely Parks and scenarist Lorenzo Semple, Jr. (Semple, incidentally, wrote several segments of the Batman TV series.) With the "true story" shield to hide behind, they were able to employ the kind of ludicrous that they never exaggeration would have touched if they had been forced to worry about keeping the story plausible. In days of cinematic yore, you could spot the people who weren't on Our Side because they wore black Stetsons. Here you can tell who's who because the tradition-bound, sadistic, and/or dishonest cops are old, gray, and usually fat. Moreover, they're atrocious actors, especially one who calls Greenberg and Hantz down in a voice that sounds like Rod Steiger singing ptainchant. Greenberg and Hantz, however, are young and handsome in a middle-class way, and Leibman at least tries to pump some life into Greenberg's character. They have also been outfitted with the best that the studio's Clever Bam can offer. One remark Greenberg leaves the formidable superior standing mouth agape. (I wonder wh didn't pass up police woi jobs with The New Yorker.) The efforts to stop Greei and Hantz by the people in the Knapp Commission, ji et al„ all under pressure from dope barons who've been pa' them off are so transparei — — clumsy in conception execution that you wonder i such dummies got to be People Power. But that may be the if any movie is populist, it‘. one. To be sure, the v conceivable reason for Graenber and Hantz to be promoted by same Police Department that has hounded them all through the film is the desire to please the crowd. The Super Cops is a waste of time, but it is also a failure on another, more important level. The events in this film are passed off as reality because of the story's slight acquaintance with fact. It is dangerous to peddle the belief that the Common Man can unmask instantaneously corruption, that the evil men in our society do everything but wear handlebar mustaches and black cloaks, and broadcast their intentions. The morality of The Super Cope is drawn from the comic pages as surely as are the nicknames of the main characters, and its acquaintance with reality is only a nodding one.

I hate recording companies who issue such rip-offs. "Best of ..sides never do what they are suppose to do which is to present the "Best of..." a certain artist. Welt, almost never. Everytime I buy a Best of side, I get burned. You know why I get burned? Because I go out and buy every side the dude ever did. "Best of... records give you a taste of what he's doing. Once you hear him, then you get hungry and have to have the full course dinner that particular artist is serving up. Well, kiddies, I got to do the Best of John Mayall this week. So, with the previous statements digested, let's go ... ... �I used to think John Mayall was just another crazy. God, he made so many changes you couldn't keep up with him. I was too dumb to realize that these changes weren't changes for changes sake. Rather, he was trying to do something to which most artists only give lip service. John Mayall was growing, and in his growth, he was creating. He had to be doing something a lot of good players were in and out of his bands. I first heard a Mayall band during the Btuesbreakers period. That's when Clapton was in the band. You all know Eric Clapton, he's the one who stole all his licks the only difference was that Eric from Freddy King speeded 'em up to about 78 rpm and made a lot of bread off of his methedrine interpretation of the blues. (Editor's note: rumor has it around the biz that the elusive Mr. Clapton is so strung out that the only time he can get "high" is when he takes a lethal dose of the stuff stuff being junk, yup, that's what "they" say.) The first Mayall side I bought was Blues From Laurel Canyon, an exemplary performance of a musician's diary. I was convinced after Laurel Canyon that Mayall was more than a passing, quick-change artist. In this light Mayall's "Best of ..." album just doesn't become the usual banding together of tunes gleaned from the last four or five releases. It becomes a restatement of growth, a pause to reflect on what has happened to his and his life. Each album represented herein gives music us a chance to pause and reflect along with Mayall. If you haven't followed Mayall, this album serves the purpose of giving you a taste of his development. A lot of the record features his new jazz-blues fusion group. I have always maintained Blue hatched as a sloppy player, but here, as well as on the fusion albums, he has found a home. Freddie Robinson's playing is laudatory as usual. The only he can't setback seems to come from Mayall himself sing. But the blues is more than a silky voice, it's a feeling and Mayall has enough of those to spare. The Best of John Mayall seems to be just that. Some good, solid musicians showing what they can do. It's more than a sampler of Mayall's work, it shows us just where he is headed from here on in. Another drawback, to regress as usual. Eight beans is a for a moment, is the price tag lot, but if you want that taste you gotta pay the chef. -Bear - — — ... - — Ted Nugent & RECORDS Don't Go." I could never figure out who was the coolest, Ted with his fringe or John Kay and his shades, which he never took off (until he became a folk singer, that is by the way, for all you Steppenwolf fans, and I don't mean Hesse, that band is reforming with most of its original personnel intact —)!l? Question Mark of 7 and the Mysterians also wore perpetual shades, but at one point he shattered the whole mystique by doing this gruesome sequential < unmasking of his black glasses for some innocuous teenzine, it was like watching a zombie re-enact the famous unveiling scene in "Phantom of the Opera." Both were on the show constantly, so the choice varied each week according to respective chemical ingestations. I kind of think Ted won out eventually, because he was into fringe and that played right into my rapidly developing sense of leather. After a journey into the punkvoid, Ted's returned and whipped it out on ah Ip called. Call of the Wild. But first: Ted's back performing these days and still up to his old stage tricks, like praying to his geetar, and he now spotlights a moment during the concert where he hits the treble barrier so hard that it shatters a glass. Alas, reports have been drifting in and it seems Ted is as obnoxious and conceited as he should be. Overblown Detroit ego is something we must contend with now that the revolution has become the evolution and we're headed for the nod hotcha. Call of the Wild to continue this bit of fragmentation, is the first rock 'n roll album about eroto-cannibalism. I ain't gonna even explain it, you'll have to find that out for yourself. It's also like Stockhausen meeting the gods of machine-wind. In utter wurds it's metal all the way. No glitter, just plain ole rock 'n roll slag. If in ya wanna get yo' ears expanded, pleeze buy this record, it'll scorch yo' torch. Get outta the syrup and listen to the fucker; it'll clean your pipes -Uranian Willy the Heavy MetalKid... On the Nod... — ... . .. the Amboy Dukes Call of the Wild (Discreet) Stealer's Wheel and "Stuck in the Middle," Todd Rundgren's latest incarnation and "Hello It's Me," and even the inimitable Loggins and Messina hit, "Your Mama Don't Dance." What usually happens to groups of this type is that the song becomes a big hit, but it is almost detrimental to the group's career because the radio plays it to death and everyone is left with the feeling that the song was, after all, obnoxious. This can lead one to the erroneous conclusion that all the band's music is also obnoxious, when actually, it is just the institution of top 40 radio that is TRULY obnoxious. So, trying to keep an open mind to this problem, read on. Style has absolutely nothing to do with a membership in this club, beyond the fact that each band does in fact have a very unique style. What most characterizes all of them is a very complete and thorough knowledge of the potentials of a recording studio. This brings with it a necessary sophisticaiton, because once you know how much you can really do, it becomes that much harder to keep it under control. Especially with the idea of "more is better" at such a musical premium these days. So, subtlety becomes the key. Knowing just how many tracks to put in without cluttering the song, knowing what levels to record the background tracks at (low enough not to distract, loud enough to be heard if listened for), knowing this and much more has become •more important and valued in the production of a record. This is one of the reasons I enjoy Steely Dan's albums Denny Dias, one of the lead guitarists and so much "Stereo Mixmaster General" insures that I'm going to get an excellent recorded disc. Of course, it's obvious that the best recording in the world can't help a group whose musical head isn't together. Again, the key (this time to their music) is subtlety. Besides the fact that all the members of Steely Dan are virtuosos on their chosen instruments, they see the dangers of flash for the sake of flash, and they manage to keep the individual parts low-key enough to produce a unified sound, rather than a bunch of sounds happening at the same time. This is especially true concerning their use of the synthesizer they are one of the few bands I know that doesn't abuse its versatility. What do they sound like, anyway? (Keep "Reelin in the Year" in mind, but somewhere in the back recesses.) Well, they draw from a number of sources. On Pretzef Logic, for example, there's one country-style ("With a Gun"), one old jazz ("East St. Louis Toodle-OO"), one samba ("Rikkie Don't Lose That Number"), one blues("Pretzel Logic") and so on. As is the case with any band that draws on a variety of traditional sources, they infuse these sources with their own style too, in this case characterized by the brash tone of lead vocalist Donald Eagen, the highly-stylized double leads and the playing off of the two different lead styles of Denny Dias and Skunk Baxter against each other to utmost advantage one raucous, one mellow. By the way, it is particularly noticeable on this album just how much Denny Dias was influenced by Jimi Hendrix (listen to "Any Major Dude"). One other thing thatjs also typical of this new breed and I guess my really competent musician is the awareness of the spectrum of musical colors and exactly how they will sound through a stereo speaker. The delicate balancing of a triangle against the staccato of a drum stick against a mellow bass tone against a rusty-sounding three-part harmony vocal, for instance, give the ears and mind the impression of an extremely full, rich, varied sound. A very sophistical band, all in all, leading to a very pleasurable listening experience. Here's a hint if you don't like it on the first listening, give it at least five more tries. Because of its complexity, it takes a while to get into it but once you do, I can assure you you won't get tired of it for a long time. -Willa Bassen — — Back in the heyday of psychedelia; when universal discordance became the password for order, when structure became the tool of expansion, when chaos was structure and assimilation of chaos was as necessary and functional as a daily dose of hallucinogenic hooch-juice: a time when music was the foundation for a certain kind of sublime completeness no longer the case a time when kids not only practiced with strange new sounds in their garage studios, but on weekends, when there was no high school ennui to contend with, went out into the world and became "stars" by making grand tours of the bar and club something else which has very little to do with circuit the music scene these days, much to many people's regret a truly unique collection of mad geetar maniacs drifted out from the acid-stained woodwork and played sheer an era of grand havoc with everyone's decibel reistance sonic inebriation and first and foremost of these bizzare axe-merchants were Ted Nugent and his battlin' Amboy Dukes.

The kid down the street got his tongue stuck on a stop sign last winter, but at least he knew what a stop sign was. Jade had no idea what the blue slab, actually a plant, was but she had a character of exploration necessary to exist in the wide open spaces of the galaxy. Searching for "Doubleluck" is the basis of the plot. Jade, as one of the three mutant jaks who represent those evolved enough to step outside of the accepted niche, finds the city and opens it up to everyone. Since no one has a search to live for anymore, the keepers of Doubleluck find it necessary to remove the walls of the galaxy and allow civilization to expand. Humans had thought up a great road plan with set goals, but they hadn't figured on mutation which was exactly what Carl Sagan was talking about. Doris Piserchia has put together a fine book, and she continues to contribute good pieces of literature to Galaxy, If and Orbit. She has the sense to make her works appealing, which is something most writers of science fiction fail to do, and her methods of characterization are wonderful. There are twists and turns in her world that seem real and fantastic at the same time and her words are always chosen with a precise attention to this fact, as well as their poetics.

Ten of the Bulls road games were part of Buffalo’s southern trip, with the remaining seven on two weekend jaunts to the New York metropolitan area and yesterday’s visit to Niagara. This afternoon, Buffalo will be facing the Royals for the first time two years. The last meeting of the two squads two years ago resulted in a 4-3 Buffalo victory under the lights at Scranton’s Schautz Stadium, in which preceded by a day a double loss to Syracuse that erased the remnants of the Bulls’ playoff chances that season. Scranton’s pitching staff is paced by junior Kevin Benedict, a curveballing lefthander who was the losing pitcher in Buffalo’s victory two years ago. Don Kenia, another hurler, is 2-0, and is the team’s second leading hitter while playing the outfield part-time. Kenia’s 318 is second to designated hitter Joe Muraca’s team-leading .429 batting average, if The Royals also boast one of the smaller players seen in recent years. Centerfletder Jo Jo Cantafio, at 5-4 is smaller than any of the Fairfield Crouchers, who opened their season by losing two to the Bulls. Cantafio, who also captains the Royal basketball team, has been a fixture in centerfield for all four of his varsity seasons. The Bull ace, Jim Riedel, will probably match serves with Benedict this afternoon. Action iine Q: Which departments are scheduling their own commencement ceremonies?

Rubin SpectrumStaff Writer In cold and windy Brockport, Buffalo’s track team competed in and lost its first match of the season, dropping a 108-37 decision to the Golden Eagles. The Bulls were out of it early as Brockport scored 20 of the first 23 points via wins in the 440 relay, mile, and 120 yard high hurdles. Shining through the defeat once again was freshman Eldred Stephens, who single-handedly scored 13 of Buffalo’s points. Stephens, who broke two Bull records last Saturday at the Ashland Relays, picked up first place in the long jump (21 feet 11 inches) and the 100 yard dash (10.0), while adding a second place performance in the triple jump. Stephens and Ron Hardy from Brockport, the defending state champ, were the only double winners of the day, with Hardy’s wins coming in the triple jump and the 440 yard dash. Mike Corbett (discus) and Wally Halady (shot put) were the only other winners for the Bulls. Bulls hurt Buffalo was handicapped from the start against Brockport, because of team size. In the mije relay, the Eagles fielded two teams, while the Bulls’ Larry Stokar was forced to run in his fourth event within a 90-minute time span in order to complete Buffalo’s one foursome.

WadiiMday, 17 April 1974 State Univarsity of New York at Buffalo No. 7B Groups demand more mone by Richard Korrnan Contributing Editor Too little money for too many people is the story again of the Student Association (SA) budgetary hearings for the 1974-75 fiscal year. The SA Finance Committee has been reviewing budgets in recent weeks with representatives of all SA-supported clubs, activities and special interest groups. “Everyone will be funded at the same level as last year, and all groups will have to operate at the same level as last year,’’ explained Finance Committee member Michael Phillips. Mr. Phillips explained that SA is budgeting a running deficit of $25,000 and that anticipated funds from student mandatory fees are difficult to predict due to fluctuations in enrollment. “Groups come in and ask for an four or five allotment inflated budget times what they need,” commented SA Treasurer Sal Napoli. Because of this, Mr. Napoli said, the Finance Committee has been asking each group to rank-order the items most important to them, and plans to fund them according to their own priorities. “Everybody walks out of there (the Finance Committee hearings],” he added, “like we killed their grandmother.” - Inflationary trend Both Mr. Napoli and Mr. Phillips pointed out that inflation has driven up costs about 10%. They also cite a budget deficit inherited from previous SA administrations as contributing to this ycarV difficulties. The deficit, they said, began three or four years ago and has been passed on to succeeding administrations. About 75% of last year’s deficit was paid by Treasurer Kenny linker, who, according to Mr. Napoli, used the entire SA reserve fund to eliminate it. ”We must be conservative because we don’t have a reserve,” Mr. Napoli maintained. He said that last year’s SA overbudgeted each club because there was still a reserve to fall back on, unlike this year. Health care Student mandatory fees are more or less fixed, Mr. Phillips indicated. Last year’s budget was made with the expectation that individual clubs would not spend their entire allotment. SA has about $15,000 in the bank now, but must still take in about $200,000 before August 31 to meet expenses. Exception for PIRG? Despite claims that* clubs will be funded at about the same level as last year, an exception is being made for the Western New York Public Interest Group (WNYPIRG). In last October’s referendum, students voted for a reordering of priorities to increase funds for WNYPIRG, and this was promised by SA President Frank Jackalone during the election campaign. WNYPIRG is seeking a $25,000 allotment*- which will enable them to join the state-wide parent group, NYP1RG as opposed to the $3,000 they were given last year. Spokesmen have indicated that WNYPIRG will probably be awarded most of the $25,000 they seek. The Black Student Union (BSU) has - reportedly requested a $98,000 allotment, more than double the $42,000 they received this year. The BSU has allegedly argued that white students, especially the entertainment offered by UUAB, do not provide activities for blacks. Community Action Corps (CAC) director Dave Chaviz claims that CAC got screwed by the Finance Committee. He asserted that SA is so structured that they cannot deal realistically with individual club budgets. There is no way, Mr. Caviz contended, that the Finance Committee can understand the needs of a large group like CAC. Lobbying pressure “What often happens is that certain interest groups don’t give a damn about the financial status of SA,” Mr. Napoli said. He believes that many Student Assembly members are “there just to fight for their interest group’s budgets.” The allotments proposed by the Finance Committee will be revealed when the Committee submits its budget to the s p| lobbying is expected Co take place on the Assembly floor immediately prior to budget votes. Mr. Napoli expressed fears that new Assembly members would submit petitions just so they could vote on the budgets of their interest group. The Assembly, however, “has no ability to understand" the intricacies of budget allotments,” Mr. Phillips said. Several club representatives have criticized the Finance Committee’s procedure. Each respective organization was given at least one hour to state its case before the Committee. Certain have met with the Finance groups '""Tine Finance Committee has put in over 100 hours,” Mr. Napoli declared. He stressed that the committee had worked ten hours a day every day this week. There were 70 separate groups to be heard from, Mr. Napoli explained. “What upsets me,” Mr. Napoli continued, “is when I can see alternative sources of income” for groups that are not being utilized. “For their (each club’s] own good, they should be looked into.” SA will allot $850,000. Budget requests at this time total over $3,000,000. termed ‘inadequate’ by Dene Dube Spectrum ipproval. subst^twl .i»Quat Staff Writer The wealthiest nation in the world is not getting its money’s worth of what it spends on health care. The lack of adequate health care is no longer a phenomena limited to the poor, and is how prevalent among the middle class. These were some of the contentions of James Haughton, Health and Hospital Commissioner in Cooke County, Illinois, addressing many medical students and faculty on the problems of health education and health care delivery Monday night in Capen Hall. Dr. Haughton echoed David Reiser’s complaints in Struggling to Stay Human in Medical Education regarding doctors’ lack of consideration for patients fostered by the emphasis on technology in the nation’s medical schools. “Traditional education focuses on the disease and not the patient,” Dr. Haughton maintained. “A fear of the patient, of caring and of involvement, uses technology as a response to diseases,” he said. Needy are ignored Indicating that 30 million citizens have no health insurance and cannot afford health care, Dr. Haughton believes that the way to aid this significantly large percentage of neglected persons is to alter the incentives and selection processes of medical schools. In Panama, he explained, two years df social service are required for a license to practice medicine, to compensate for an almost-free medical education. lied to loan He suggested that this cone-.'. programs in the United States, where a debt might be “forgiven" by service in poor and needy communities. To the dismay of his listeners, he added that a federal proposal is under way to discontinue all scholarships to manpower programs for such communities, changing ! them instead to loans. Challenging the selection process to medical schools because it restricts the training of doctors to middle-class white males, he noted that there are only 8% women and 2% minority group doctors in the country. He suggested an analysis of the country’s needs “to produce careers consonant with these needs,” although this would “challenge the foundation of democracy where luxury distorts the use" of precious resources.” The American citizen is taught to have his own private physician, Dr. Haughton added. Skeptical on insurance Asked how he felt about pre-paid policies such as Health Medical Organizations (HMOs), which offer pre-paid health services to patients and pre-paid fees to doctors, Dr. Haughton responded he was “not sanguine to establishing HMOs in the next few years because of the financial obstacles.” The main differences between HMOs and group practice, he explained, is that the law defines the minimum coverage for HMOs, while in group practice the package is self-defined. In Genesee Valley in New York State, he indicated, where pre-paid health insurance is well known, development of HMOs was unsuccessful because these people were accustomed to better packages. “HMOs made them pay more money for a comprehensive program, something the blues were giving them for less,” he said, referring to Blue Shield and Blue Cross. “Marketing is not a problem with the blues; with HMOs, they are trying to sell to the individual.” More paraprofesskmals needed Dr, Haughton does not favor national health insurance, but prefers a rational system for health financing: “There is no reality for HMO in poor communities, unless there is national coverage for everyone.” 1 James Haughton “The solution lies with med students and educators, who should be committed to the preservation of maintenance of the nation’s health. Resist influences that do not let you respond to the community, strip you of your humanity, and redefine your excellence,” he said to the future health professionals in the audience. He complained that many times students do n;>t !<.' “what is out there” and have a problem of “career choices,” due to a lack of “role models in the community they wish to serve.” Paramedical and social workers and nurses can take on many responsibilities so doctors can become more sufficiently involved with their patients, he said, regretting that no requests were made for new specialties this year by the Medical Board of Specialties. Continued proliferation of specialization in medicine would foster incentive and redistribution of health services, Dr. Haughton concluded. ii 1 i .iii i ./ ' , • �•" * ■ by Amy Dunkin Campu, Editor organization ” The Assembly will be reorganized “by incremental reforms,” Mr. Salimando noted, and many of the proposed changes will not be effected until next year. Changing the status of the SA Executive Committee will be one of Mr. Salimando’s primary concerns. “The Executive Committee has been traditionally viewed as obstructionist, elitist and apart from the Assembly. We want to make it more responsible and communicable to the Assembly with less of an overriding influence,” he said. Regarding the Executive Committee as an informational body that reports current proejets and programs at every meeting, Mr. Salimando hopes to break down the distrust the Assembly has displayed toward it. He does not fee! the solution lies in removing the voting power of the Executive Committee members: “By taking away their vote, we are taking away expertise the Assembly can use.” Plans to reduce the power of the Executive Committee include changing the make-up of the two most important committees, Finance and Personnel and Appointments, to six voting Assembly representatives and two hon-voting Executive Committee members. In the past, these committees have been stacked with voting Executive Committee people. steps, not sweeping - Reactive body Assessing the present situation, Assemblyperson Mark Carlin said the Assembly is “designed as a reactive body,” since most of the legislation “comes from the impetus of the Executive Committee.” He feels this must be reversed so the “Assembly makes the proposals and the Executive Committee acts on them." “The only way the Assembly can be an effective body is if people attend,” Mr. Salimando emphasized. He hopes to stimulate student interest by “developing a knowledgeable Assembly before each meeting; one that knows what is on the agenda and can ask intelligent questions.” He added: “I want to create an opiniated student body that takes stands on issues and relates them to the SA,” ,A , By reforming the Assembly committee system, Mr. ._ the computer system makes it much easier to report missing and stolen bicycles. One result will be a constant, up-to-date county-wide release of a list of stolen bicycles. These lists will be available to Campus Security, the Buffalo Police Department and other law enforcement agencies throughout the country. The probability of recovering a stolen bicycle will thus increase tremendously, explained Campus Security officers Kathleen Conniff and Corky Brunskull. Having registered his vehicle, a bicycle owner will be able to park in a designated area behind Lockwood Library, directly opposite the Undergraduate Library in Diefendorf Annex. This area was established through the efforts of former Student Association (SA) Student Rights Coordinator Cliff Pale Cliff Palefsky, and is funded by student fees.

All the preceding proposals will probably not affect the present Assembly. However, if passed this week, a proposal to simplify the amending process would immediately facilitate the Assembly’s ability to act on legislation. Whereas in the past, an absolute 3/5 majority of the total Assembly membership was needed to pass an amendment, the proposal calls for only % of the members present to amend the constitution. This would prevent the Assembly from being "tied down by procedural garbage," Mr. Salimando said. He added that the Assembly would institute a system of statutes in the near future where a simple 34 majority of Forces mobilized the members present would be required to pass all Mr. Salimando pointed out that Academic Affairs legislation except constitutional amendments.

HORSES FOR RIDERS FROM BEGINNERS TO ADVANCED. ARL the Jewish Student Magazine �Women studying law increasing in numbers by Mitch Regenbogen Spectrum Staff Writer The study of law, with few exceptions, has traditionally been confined to the legal education of men. However, in recent years, the nation’s law schools have opened their doors to increasing numbers of aspiring female lawyers. Judith Younger, newly-appointed dean of Syracuse University School of Law, will speak on “Women and the Legal Profession” in Capen 140 on Saturday, April 20 at 10:45 a.m. Ms. Younger is the third woman to be appointed dean of an American law school and the first in New York State. During her discussion, she will try to acquaint women with the general trends pertaining to law school, as well as provide information about successful women in the legal profession. The program is sponsored by the University Office of Student Affairs. In addition to Dean Younger, professors Janet Hairing, Marjorie Girth, and Patricia Hollander and two women students from the State University at Buffalo Law School will relate their personal experiences. Search for applicants The nation’s law schools have searched for qualified women applicants, partially through the efforts of women’s groups seeking to provide professional equality for women, and through the realization that women can make valuable contributions to the study and practice of law. This new emphasis has inspired greater numbers of law school applications from female undergraduates across the country. Pre-law advisor Jerome Fink said the number of women applicants has nearly doubled in the last few years. As evidence of this ttend, 28% of all the law school applicants who have consulted Dr. Fink this year have bee women, a substantial increase over previous years. Soihe male students fear it has become easier for women to be admitted to law school than it is foir men with identical credentials. While some evidence may support this, Dr. Fink has found that those women with whom he has been in contact have generally been more qualified than the men. (Dr. Fink’s sample is not random, however, since maintaining contact with his office is voluntary.) The women applicants’ average Law Scholastic Aptitude Test (LSAT) scores were higher, although the highest scores were achieved by men. In. addition, 67-75% of these women were Phi Beta Kappa students. Women applicants from this University are “exceptionally well qualified,” according to Dr. Fink. Two-part series Dean Younger’s address is the first of a two-part program directed at those who are interested in attending law school. On May 4, in 140 Capen at 1 p.m., Peter A. Winograd, a representative of the Educational Testing Service, will explain the national trends in law school admissions and the significance of the LSAT and Law School Data Admission Service (LSDAS) in the admissions process. Also jfarticipatihg'wifl fie'ProVbst Richard Schwartz, and Associate Provost William Greiner, of the State University at Buffalo Law School. While the program on April 20 is directed towards women, the May 4 program will alert all candidates to some of the major considerations in planning a law career. “I try to personalize the application process,” said Dr. Fink, who feels , the service he provides is probably the only one-to-one relationship most students will ever find in the University administration. While he docs not generally lend much credence to large lecture presentations. Dr. Fink feels that individuals such as dean Younger and Mr. Winograd can provide useful information. nta\ Silencing the student press If there is something illegal about the objectionat material, let those offended take their complaint to the courts. There are statutes defining obscenity, and guidelines for the pursuit of libel litigation; any material which is truly out of order can be dealt with under these laws. An unwillingness to attack the matter properly should be interpreted as an admission that the bill’s supporters do not have a valid case and could not possibly win their case in the courts. The bill presently before the Senate would effectively shut down every publication in the SUNY and CUNY systems, except possibly The Spectrum, which is an independently-operated corporation by Michael O’Neill National Editor The Senate of the State of New York is rapidly moving towards a position that would at once silence the student press of the State Universities and pay token tribute to the nebulous doctrines of media morality and proper expenditure of public funds. If they pass a censorship bill reported out of committee only last week at the urging of conservative Republican John Marchi, they will do irreparable damage to student publications at every SUNY campus. Having done this, they will applaud their noble effort to put an end to the current stream of obscenity and license on campus, which they see as a prevalent characteristic in the college generating its own revenue through advertising and the sale of subscriptions to the student body. Even with its built-in advantages, there is some question as to whether The Spectrum could survive in its present form indefinitely. Shutting down all the campus newspapers because of the indiscretion of a few is an incompetent and unfair reaction, and it’i being perpetrated by a group of small-time politicians whose own records could use a careful examination more often than anyone cares to admit. College newspapers have not been as hesitant to attack local legislators as some of the more established presses. Any attempt to openly put these journals out of business is a blatant abrogation of free speech, and should not be hidden behind the press. It has happened too fast. In less than a month, a small group of legislators has managed to capitalize on public outcries about the printing of questionable material in several college newspapers and play up the indignation of their constituents in order to force-feed this bill to the Legislature. The implications of such an action are far-reaching. If passed, the bill will deny funding to college newspapers, set a precedent for ceilsorship not by the University, but by the legislature and confirm once and for all the right of elected officials to decide in what manner student fees may be spent. The State Senate’s attempt, cleverly hidden under the aegis of enforced morality in public spending, is on shakey legal footing. The State University Board of Trustees are the sole - - shield of public indignation. It’s called censorship, and it’s supposed to be illegal. If the legislature is allowed to get away with this an obvious and undisguised venture into determining the guidelines for spending student fees there will be nothing left to stop them. Controversial expenditures for legal-aid clinics and birth-control centers will fall prey to the whims of a — determinants of spending guidelines for mandatory student fees. The Senate is overstepping its authority. “We’re the ones in the heat,” commented one senator in defense. Complaining about the indignation expressed by his constituents, he quoted the responsibilities of his office and indicated that he had no choice but to abide by public sentiment. — distant and often unconcerned legislators. The student fee will become an extended tax, will have little say as to how it is spent. The State Legislature has come to regard these fees as public funds, and will probably Justify its attempt to influence their disbursement as a righteous effort to ensure that thfc public’s money is not improperly and students Why these knowledgeable representatives do not the refer to complaints to the proper channels remains a mystery. State University Trustees Should it be within their power to take matters into their own hands and over-react to a situation they do not fully understand? They are not SUNY specialists; their knowledge stems only from issues of immediate concern to them. Silencing the campus press might serve the interest of some of their constitutents, but that hardly makes it legal. Censoring the national press would also serve the interest of a good many voters and politicians alike; yet few dare to go that far. Just exactly where the “numerous” complaints about the content in the campus publications come from remains unknown. Why are these complaints not directed at the editors of the allegedly offensive papers? If there is something wrong with their content, then the editors could and should be brought to answer. If something illegal is published, then it should be dealt with through the courts. Blanket denial of student fees to campus publications only avoids the issue. It bypasses the questionable material and goes directly to the concept of the paper itself. The problem is dealt with by silencing all responsible voices and closing down the invaluable newspapers along with the marginal. That doesn’t say much for Mr. Marchi or his supporters. — — spent. The student fee is not public money. It is collected from students, only after a periodic referendum decides whether or not they should be collected. The fee is to be spent on student functions and for the benefit of the University community as a whole. Who is better qualified, and who is more directly involved with the use of these fees than the students themselves? If enough of them objected to the manner in which they were being spent, they have at their disposal, through student government, the means- by which to deny allotment to newspapers and other publications. If the widespread dissatisfaction with the content of these papers was as real as the legislators claim, students would certainly have taken measures long ago to deal with the problem more directly. Passage of the bill restricting the allocation of funds to the newspapers will be more than press censorship; it will be an infringement on the right of the students to determine how and where their money is spent. The mandatory student fee will be turned into nothing more than a state tax which the legislature will feel free to spend in whatever manner it sees fit. Wednesday, 17 April 1974 The . Spectrum .

Special consideration is given to official checks, bank and postal money added1 orders, Profit motive Insisting that the public has a misconception about the banking system, Mr. Dickerson said: “We are not a public agency like the Post Office, and we have to make a profit.” Not all branches of the same bank adhere to the same policy. Mr. Kam explained that an operations committee determines the policy at his branch. The Bailey-Kensington office of M&T and the University branch of Marine Midland Bank will both cash personal checks for their customers, even if issued from an out-of-town bank, according to the branch managers. However, there must be enough money in the person’s account to cover the amount of the check. Asked if students are treated differently than other customers, Mr. Dickerson said: “We have set the same guidelines for students as all customers. We give what we call a ‘handy account’ to students, which entitles them to their first 75 checks at no service charge. It also bears the seal of the University and the student’s identification number, making it more negotiable.” “As a group, students create no more problems than do any of our other customers,” Mr. Dickerson said. Asked what percentage of the customers at MAT are students, Mr.-Dickersoo replied: “I really cannot give an estimation, as our records do not indicate if a customer is a student.” Track records are broken at Ashland Relays by Stephens by David J.

STATE & AUDREY & DELL S part. _ ' �h % - % k ; ■ Editorial . The annual Student Association budget fiasco is approaching. Budget time brings out the worst in people, producing the ugly spectacle of groups fighting tooth-and-nail for extra dollars with SA pleading that there is only so much money to go around. As would be expected when $850,000 is being allocated, the politicking has already begun during the SA Finance Committee's hearings on the budgets of all student-funded groups. Because inflation has driven costs up 10% or more, and because, after paying its deficit, SA now has no cash reserve to fall back on, Treasurer Sal Napoli has informed all groups that they will have to operate at virtually the same level as last year. Exceptions must be made, of course. WNYPIRG must receive the promised $25,000 to join its state-wide parent group NYPIRG because students voted that the consumer group was a priority in last fall's referendum; and Intramural sports and the athletic bubble for the activity-poor Amherst Campus will require increased funding. But groups are stilt coming to SA with inflated budgets; predictably, every group is Concerned with its own budget and is not interested in the financial solvency of SA, which they see as a bottomless treasury. '' The ugliest part Of the money-grabbing drama is the efforts by ranging from arm-twisting lobbying to outright interest groups pressure tactics to insure a large budget for their group. The Student Assembly has also been flooded with membership petitions from interest group members who care nothing about the Assembly but merely want to stack it with 'yes' votes to push through a large budget for their group. Hopefully, these money-minded lobbyists will not be eligible to vote on the budgets; equally important is that the Assembly must resist pressures and even threats by any group for ,v ' larger fuhding than SA can afford. This will be difficult, since the weak Assembly itself is made up of representatives of interest groups, but we hope the Assembly as wyll seriously consider SA's well as groups seeking moreynoney overall financial- situation as well as their own partisan interests. Given X amount of money, the Assembly must act responsibly in athletics, clubs, Sub-Board' setting overall ceilings in each area reflecting what students can afford to fund. SA is rightly activities allowing each group to determine its own spending priorities. But unless the overall picture is' considered by all groups, the budget hearings wifi degenerate into the usual back-biting struggle, with the groups that 'can exert the most pressure receiving the most money and the rest getting shafted with fee-paying students the ultimate loser. - — — — — — — . . . and Assembly reforms Student government, the campus cynics say, is destined to be pointing especially to the Student Assembly, ineffective optimistically created as a legislative body but now universally considered a disaster. Elected on a platform of involving more students in SA, President Frank Jackalone has far-reaching plans to reform the Assembly from a farcical coalition of interest groups to a strong legislature truly representative of students. The SA Executive Committee has always been too powerful, partially by default because the Assembly was so weak. The ideal situation, somewhat like in the Faculty-Senate, is where the Assembly is a knowledgable body of expert committees introducing well-researched legislation, while the Executive Committee acts as an informational source and provides leadership. Executive vice-president Scott Salimando hopes to reform the Assembly committee system to involve students in committees by area of interest, to yield committees that suggest thoughtful legislation and proposals. Giving all the votes to Assemblymen on the vital, but once Executive-stacked, Finance and Personnel and Appointments committees will enable the Assembly to act as a check on executive appointments and budget-making. But the key to making the Assembly work Is to make it representative of the student body. The Faculty-Senate achieved greater representation in 1970 by changing from a town meeting format to a system of elected Senators. For the Assembly, the key is eliminating the glorified lobbyists who represent only the concerns of their special interest group and replacing them with representatives of all segments of the student body commuters dorm students, groups, and especially academic departments, which Academic Affairs coordinator Mark Humm is now trying to persuade to send representatives to the Assembly. Since all students take courses, an academic Assembly (again like the Fac-Sen) would represent everyone; certainly more than a system where a lobbyist can circulate a petition around his class and get 40 signatures to become an Assemblyman, representing no one but himself or his interest group. But no plans or proposals can have much effect if students do not stop complaining about student government and instead become actively involved in transforming the Student Assembly into a viable — IKALITI I TMOUGHT WE Distorted ideas To the Editor. I read Barry Kaplan's article (Through the Looking Glass 4/12/74) two times to make sure I didn’t misunderstand it before I wrote this letter. First, I couldn’t agree more with Mr. Kaplan in that each person is alone responsible for his actions; that it is not right for people to act with disregard towards others during the year, thinking they merely have to ask forgiveness to be absolved. However, I get the impression that he thinks most Christians practice this belief arid that they view Christ as “a panacea which eases everyone’s responsibility.” How shallow and ignorant! To state that we pray to “our Saviour” on Easter for this reason is a stupid concept. While there may be Christians who feel this way, 1 personally don’t, my family and realtivcs don’t, and neither does the Greek Orthodox Church. Easter and Christianity mean many different tilings. I was taught Christ sumbolized love for my fellow man and with that love came responsibility for his welfare. The last time Christians murdered, raped, pilliaged and committed unnatural acts because they believed they had “a direct line of credit from that Jewish jerk” was during the Crusades. I think Mr. Kaplan’s distorted ideas of Christain worship need a little updating'. I’m glad the article didn’t reflect the views of The Spectrum, but in the future I would hope you would print articles written by columnists, who base their opinions on facts, not pedants.

Page five �■ ■ VEm April 20 i.ruand fW -V'* byJeffrey appear then If you are a student at this University, chances are that you have filled out a dozen or to computer forms in the past few months. One of those forms could very well have been an evaluation of your professor. It is also very likely that you don’t remember filling out a form like that. If you do remember, the betting line would be heavily against your having taken the form seriously. The Faculty-Senate is presently studying a report by its subcommittee on Teaching Effectiveness. The report deals with an “experimental” program begun two years ago called the Analysis of Courses and Teachers (ACT), a student evaluation program which includes preparing the questions, disseminating and collecting the questionnaires, and releasing the results ACT is also the program that almost everyone has termed a “disaster.” How can it be termed anything but disaster if the students fail to see the importance of a program that attempts to evaluate their teachers? The ACT program’s goals are two-fold; 1) the results should help faculty improve their teaching abilities, and 2) the results should aid students in choosing teachers and courses more careftilly. But the program cannot run if students don’t take the evaluations seriously. No one can benefit if the assessments are not carefully thought out. The idea is to create an issue... to get the students to feel that the evaluations can be worthwhile. But if students do not see the results of their evaluations in a comprehensible form, how can the program be termed “worthwhile?” First get the student interested by letting him see real results. When evaluations are taken seriously, they can then become valuable items to help improve teaching effectiveness. With ACT in its present form, it will be impossible to get students interested. Priorities must be rearranged to put the student’s needs first. It is self-defeating to think that teaching effectiveness can be improved without proper student input. In order to get proper input we need meaningful output namely, a SCATE (Student Course and Teaching * —- — Evaluation). t When a large majority of students who have taken a particular course claim to be cosmically enlightened, fully entertained, and anxious to follow * necessary, somewhat How about the teacher who isn’t getting through to his audience, who's hung up on punishment with the slap of the ruler, and who never looks up from his notes? Why should another student consider taking a course from that teacher? Why can’t students begin to seriously evaluate their professors to pass the word on to fellow students? SCATE’s can be found in many colleges and universities. Casa Western Reserve University has a very good one; the State University of Binghamton has developed a useful SCATB; best of all is Harvard’s “Confy Guide,” which sells for $1. Most of students buy one f or the humor, if not for u9e fu| comments. Someone has suggested succinct comments for a UB SCATE such as, 'This course really sucks, man. Don’t take it under any circumstances.” But the idea is to probe a bit deeper than that: “Lectures were often informative. However, there could have been room for a little more classroom discussion. How about taking 10 or 15 minutes at the end of each period for comments on the lecture?” That kind of comment would help both student and professor. Overly critical comments directed solely at teachers are not helpful. Laudatory comments are equally worthless to both students and faculty. If we can agree that the key to a successful evaluation program is a SCATE to spark student interest, then we have to assign responsibility for its creation. Should the Student Association take full responsibility? Mark Humm, Academic Affairs Coordinator, has begged the Faculty-Senate not to saddle SA with such a burden. But George Hochfield, Faculty-Senate Chairman-elect, insists that by its nature, evaluating instructors must be the responsibility of the students. Why not a combined effort? Physics professor Jonathan Reichert has suggested a somewhat viable alternative for getting faculty and students involved on a smaller departmental scale. This, at least, is a step in the right direction. But what the Faculty-Senate must cultivate, if improved teaching effectiveness on this campus is to be achieved, is student interest because without it, there can be no sensible or pragmatic evaluations from which to work. land night of performance J JUST BACK FROM INTRODUCING THE i | 111fit GQ § ,l! s <2 7 ? | HAIRCUT!! t | "DIFFERENT STROKES FOR DIFFERENT FOLKS" I Tmmmmmmmmmmmm CLIP AND SAVE as M mi ■■ M wm M ■■ m ■!

Dr. Carver appeared as one of the speakers at a 'wo-day conference entitled ‘The Justification of Viol nee,” held in John Lord O’Brian Hall on Thursday and 1 riday. Dr. Carver said he was not concerned whether the audience would accept the practice of justifying violence, but insisted that “the concept stands in need of justification.” He called the act of violence “delict,” whereby someone is well-advised to prepare a defense. In the law, he said, there arc a variety of different defenses, but he described two specifically: justification . and explication. . , " of the related phenomena. Dr. Sharp then offered his definition of violence: ‘The act of inflicting physical injury or death on persons by whatever means or threats, including the restriction movement or freedom of movement by such acts threats.” Sanction, he said, occurs when people behave in a/suitable manner prescribed by thegovemmeni Sanction, he added, is the key element of political “Violence is in most cases the ultimate sanctii western political societies,” Dr. Sharp emphasized, does seem impossible to conceive a society where th«;r no sanctions,” he said. Dr. Sharp criticized the efforts of those win currently seeking an alternative to political violence said their attempts lacked sufficient impact, adding moral appeals to repudiate violence are left “impotence.” Those who propose to abolish the currem system have offered no realistic substitute to replace status quo, he said. Most people presume that violence the only way to carry out a revolution, although Dr. suggested non-violence as a substitute. Non-violence has worked before, Dr. Sharp assci citing the twelve-year struggle of American colonists before the advent of the Revolutionary War. “What we need now,” said Dr. Sharp, “is a fast series of research projects that would cost hundreds of millions of dollars to research and investigate the nature of this phenomenon.” ' Getting off the hook In explication, there is a defect in the action and its agent. One example would be someone who becomes “hot under the collar” and breaks a vase. If he attempts to explain his reasons for the action, he has offered an —Santos explicating defense. Ip the base of justification, the defect of damage is acknowledged and there is either “rightness” or “all rightness.” “A pattern of justifying defense,” said of the traditional elite. It is the privilege of a special select Dr. Carver, “gets the person off the hook. He is not to make or amends.” required any payments group that society fears and respects. In a way, the State of has achieved a monopoly on violence. Dr. Carver then discussed the four patterns � � stereotype was The and justification. pattern of ideology explained through the concept of mankhaeism, developed The sins committed by Egil Krogh, Jr. and Lt. William by French author Frantz Fanon. Using manichaeism, it is was not the violence they perpetrated so much as Galley within a the “Violence and Appeals to Conscience” was the topic society “good people possible to distinguish from the bad people.” During the Frcnch-Algcrian conflict the ‘abandonment of their will,” Edgar Friedcnberg, introduced by Gerald MacCallum as part of the symposium of two decades ago, the blacks were thought to understand professor of Sociology and Education at Dalhousie on Violence. About 40 law students and professors met only force and violence. They were labeled “bad people” University, told an audi*n'of.vat O’Brian Hall Thursday Friday morning to hear Dr. MacCallum describe his philosophy of the relation of violence to what we label by the French colonists. In effect, the French had night. The “principal sponsor” of violence is the public. Dr conscience. stereotyped the black Algerian natives. Friedcnberg began. .Certain sectors of society, he He explained that the confusion caused by the term explained, are permitted to commit the worst forms of “conscience” could be traced to a secular and religious Good guys vs. bad guys ,-contradiction. The common idea was that one must be “Manichaeism is not limited to situations which are violence. It is a paradox that we fcararid fiafe Violence but revolutionary,” Dr. Carver commented. “It occurs even in guided and uplifted by one’s conscience. But Martin the University.” The phenomena is reinforced by the most select a number of-young men to go out and make war and Luther saw conscience as an iron rule against which one is prominent aspects of society. Dr. Carver cited television as commit the most horrible atrocities imaginable. Dr. helpless. In this instance, Dr. MacCallum saw conscience as a prime example: “Violence is portrayed as right if a good Friedcnberg emphasized. In fact, society has a “fanatical a kind of “touchstone to right and wrong, with a causal guy does it against the bad guy.” In any case, television respect” for authority that has the privilege of violence. It role in present behavior.” reinforces a certain pattern of justification. is when ‘authority’ commits it that we “don’t recognize The most interesting part of the presentation dealt The other three patterns of justification include violence as violence.” with conscience as it pertained to violence in a relevant ‘Violence,” as defined by Dr. Friedenbcrg, “is community (one that is relevant to the individual). Dr. policy, which is justified ,in respect to the overall social physical state; status, the which is with the coercion with the capacity to reduce a person to MacCallum described five kinds of violence, extending on a policies of concerned continuum from violence endorsed in a relevant relationship between worker and client; and normal helplessness and to destory him.” The paradox is continued by society’s hate of community but considered wrong by the indivdual’s appeal, or the accepted mode of violence (body contact sports). spontaneous action; yet the most violent actions are conscience, to violence which is grounds for criticism, not but is considered wrong by the individual’s Dr. Garver related the recent epidemic of hijacking spontaneous, including those acts that are carried out by punishment and kidnapping to the Manichaeism Doctrine. Besides the the privileged perpetrators of violence. conscience. justifications of profit and publicity involved in their actions, those who commit violence are altogether Disciplined or automated Appeals to conscience In society there are two kinds of people: those that Dr. MacCallum then offered two postulates about the desperate, Dr. Garver said. ‘The kidnappers must believe pride themselves on self-discipline and those who behave as relationship of violence to conscience; ‘The person’s sense that they are the good guys,” he observed. “automated autotons,” Dr. Friedenbcrg explained. But of the wrongfulness of his act must not be so Political violence these two groups will diverge when certain experiments are overwhelming that ‘weighing’ on his conscience is too little Gene Sharp, professor of Political Science at carried out, such as one that Dr. Friedenbcrg. described. to say about its affect,” he explained. ‘The act must not Southeastern Massachusetts University, spoke next on Stanley Milgrim, a Yale University psychologist, found be something that others are successfully seeking what the “Violence As the Ultimate Political Sanction.” Focusing that people will do violence without the will or need to do perpetrator regards as retribution.” on the question of political violence, he said that it “hinges violence. The two groups become indistinguishable when Dr. MacCallum elaborated on the kinds and intensities in part bn the assessment of the necessity and the placed in a situation where they are hurting other people of violence: “Violence toward humans must be the consequences of political violence.” Certain types of to extremes on the order of “authorities.” primary site of appeals to conscience.” Throughout his Those who do violence are those who occasionally, if lecture.

The Student Association of State University (SASU) has urged all concerned individuals Uf send telegrams (by calling 1-800-2S7-2221 toll-free), letters and make phone calls to their State Senator, Senate Majority leader Warren M. Anderson, and Assembly Speaker Perry B. Duryea, urging them to vote against the bill. Senator Jess Present of Jamestown, N.Y. could not make a definite commitment regarding the legislation since he had not seen it. But he did say that on the basis of what he had heard he “would probably be opposed” to the legislation. State Assemblyman Chester Hardt of Buffalo said he is “opposed to the principles behind the bill.” He by Marc Jacobson City Editor Reactions to the bill which the State Senate will consider tomorrow which would bah the use of mandatory student fees for student newspapers at every State University and City University campus in the state have ranged from total outrage to complacency. Sponsored by State Senator John Marchi (R., Westchester), the bill, which was approved by the State Senate’s Higher Education Committee on Thursday, has considerable conservative support in both the State Senate and Assembly. Approval of both houses is necessary for_ the bill to become law. State Assemblyman John LaFalce (D., Kenmore) said he was emphatically opposed Jo legislation prohibiting the use of mandatory fees for student newspapers. “1 think it is a terrible indictment of the individual proposing it... (and his] concept of representative democracy... it seems he believes in'freedom of the press within the limits of his own perceptions,” said Mr. LaFalce. — - Faculty reaction negative Faculty reaction at — - — Obscenity criticized State Senator Thomas McGowan of Buffalo would not formally take a position on the issue, although he said: “No one wants to do away with college newspapers.” He labelled the City College of New York student newspaper, which recently printed an allegedly pornographic cartoon of a nun masturbating with a crucifix that outraged Senator James Buckley and others, as “not responsible.” “1 don’t like to see obvious obscenities [that was] the most disgusting thing” he had seen, he added. Senator McGowan, a Republican, said he has worked on a college newspaper; and when queried about the possibility of the bill passing, he said: “I wouldn’t worry about it.” Mr. McGowan added that “part of growing up is to leam responsibility.” In a statement prepared for the Administration at the State University of Buffalo, Richard Siggelkow, Vice-President for Student Affairs, declared: “I am opposed to the pending legislation prohibiting the use of mandatory student fees, which are not public tax monies, to support student publications media. Such a bill obviously works to the disadvantage of the student press. Also involved is the serious implication of suppression of freedom of the press,” Dr. Siggelkow concluded. If the bill became law, most student newspapers at said he couldn’t make a definite commitment until he had seen the abuses in college newspapers which Senator Marchi mentioned.

U.S. Senator James Buckley, (R-C, N.Y.), a leader of the movement that arose as a reaction to the CCNY newspaper’s publishing an allegedly pornographic cartoon, was unavailable for comment. His office was apparently closed for Good Friday. However, Buffalo area Congressman Jack Kemp said: “Given the choice between censorship and free press, I would naturally choose a free press.” State should not censor Mr. Kemp said he had no jurisdiction over the issue, since he was in Washington; however, he did say that “the Albany preparing position State Senator Griffin has introduced legislation for three consecutive years prohibiting the collection of mandatory student activity fees. “Students have the right to tell where their fees go,” Senator Griffin feels. When Mr. Griffin learned that the legislation did not allow students to determine where their fees will go, he then said that the state should not dictate how activity fees should be spent. ‘The State University is in the process of formulating an official position,” said Clifton Thorne, Vice-Chancellor of SUNY. “I can say that few issues before the Legislature havQ attracted more serious attention,” Dr. Thome said. “We are therefore giving extraordinary care to the preparation of our position,” adding that SUNY Chancellor Ernest Boyer would study the matter personally when he returns to Albany from Moscow today. The State Senate will debate the bill tomorrow. THE COLLEGE OF MATHEMATICAL SCIENCES presents by Inc., H. Kurtz, Chairman, J. Vice-Chairman, D. Cromer, Simon, Treasurer.

Dr. Yearly believes that major campus publications perform a valuable service. ‘1 think it’s a mistake,” commented Physics professor Jonathan Reichert. ‘There are all kinds of abuses this is not the way to deal with it. I think everywhere student newspapers are essential,” Dr. Reichert added. Robert Berdahl, Chairman of the Higher Education Department at the State University of Buffalo, said: ‘The Senate bill is a classic case of overkill. There does arise from time to time provocations of allegedly pornographic or partisan nature. The effort to do away with the press is like emptying the baby with the bath water,” he concluded. Dr. Berdahl said the cartoon in the CCNY newspaper was in poor taste, and suggested firing the editor. “Student newspapers serve far too many important functions. Campus newspapers’ existence are threatened by people who are over-reacting to a given provocation.” ~ summer this University was negative. Conservative support The bill states: “Use of student activity fees for support of student newspapers at public colleges and other public institutions of higher learning [is] prohibited.” The bill appears on the Senate calendar for tomorrow, the next legislative day after it was reported out of committee. It will be subject to debate at that time, and head-counters have predicted that due to strong conservative support largely stemming from outrage at certain allegedly obscene Senate material printed in studeht newspapers recently approval seems likely. The bill would then go to the State Assembly, where chances of passage are uncertain. In a similar situation two years ago, when the Senate had approved a bill abolishing student fees, SUNY Chancellor Ernest Boyer lobbied on behalf of students with Assembly Speaker Perry Duryea and succeeded in bottling the bill up in committee. V The Spectrum is published three times a week, on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, during the regular academic year; and once a week, on Friday, during the responsibility for censonWpdid nOtfest With the state or the federal government.” Instead, Congressman Kemp feels individual journals should impose some censorship upon themselves, such as removing an editor who saw fit to publish such “excesses,” referring to the CCNY cartoon. Asked if student newspapers should be funded by mandatory student fees, William Hasset, a Buffalo member of the SUNY Board of Trustees, said: ‘The present system is satisfactory.” He Continued: “Assuming continued good diligence of the part of students who edit and print their papers,” the funding of student newspapers “should be continued.” “There have been singular instances wherein readers of student newspapers have been offended by their content,” Mr. Hassett said. “In most cases, responsible student journalists have taken steps to reverse any offensive material.” Mr. Hassett added that he favored using student fees for student newspapers, “provided that when abuses of public taste occur, they are either corrected or don’t occur in the first place. The incorporation of The Spectrum ,” he said, referring to its becoming an independent corporation, “giving it more opportunities and clarifying its responsibilities, this route seems very sensible.” six talks The Planning & by Professor Marvin Zelen on Analysis of Scientific Experiments Tuesday & Thursdays April 16, 18, 23,25, 30 and May 2 at 4:00 p.m. in 110 Foster Hall.

Page three ■ �s termination Gelbaum to reconsider today by Guy Cohn Campus Editor the 1970 student demonstrations. Since that time, he has remained active by fighting against tuition raises and organizing faculty members. Academic Affairs vice-president Bernard Gelbaum is expected today to reconsider his decision to terminate Philosophy professor JamesLawler’s contract. Dr. Lawler was optimistic because Dr. Gelbaum told him Friday that additional evidence regarding his controversial case has been presented to Dr. Gelbaum since the decision not to grant Dr. Lawler a two-year extension was announced last week. Additionally, Dr. Gelbaum told Dr. Lawler that he did not know that Dr. Lawler’s vitality to the department was involved. Dr. Lawler is a Marxist philosopher, and the Philosophy Department recently conducted a widespread search for a Marxist and found all the applicants to be unqualified. Dr. Lawler's appeal will be presented by professor Paul Diesing, under the new University guidelines which allow a faculty member denied tenure to have an advocate argue his case. Reasons for denial The reasons for his being denied reappointment were explained to Dr. Lawler Friday. Dr. Gelbaum reportedly received one or two letters which did not support Dr, Lawler along with a large number of supporting letters, according to Dr. Lawler. Furthermore, an influential person wrote of Dr. Lawler; “The possibility of tenure is not nearly as high as I would like.” Dr. Gelbaum would not disclose who the influential person was, Dr. Lawler explained. Dr. Gelbaum would not comment on his reasons for terminating Dr. Lawler because he considers it inappropriate to discuss personnel matters in the public press. He explained this procedure was followed to protect a faculty or staff member being denied tenure or arrested as a member of the Faculty 45 — — political activities and because Dr. Gelbaum decided to terminate Dr. Lawler’s contract despite the official endorsements of the Philosophy Department and Faculty of Social Sciences. Philosophy Department faculty, department chairman Peter Hare, the personnel committee of the Faculty of Social Sciences, and the acting Provost of the Social Sciences were among those in favor of Dr. Lawler’s — Dr. Gelbaum again emphasized that Dr. Lawler’s political involvement did not enter into his decision. Dr. was Dr. Gelbaum maintained*that he was unaware that Dr. Lawler was one of the so-called 45 when he made the decision. He added that although he had consulted with his assistant, William Baumer, about the Lawler case, Dr. who filed a deposition against the Faculty 45 Baumer did not mention any political considerations. However, Dr. Lawler believes that Dr. Baumer may have been prejudiced against him because; (1) he was told that Dr. Baumer had. told students that be [Dr. Lawler] was “the most undesireable person in the [philosophy] department;" (2) pr. Baumer testified against the Faculty 45 and may continue to believe that Dr. Lawler “engaged in criminal activities;” (3) Dr. Baumer was not recommended for promotion by the Philosophy Department and may harbor a grudge against the Department even though the Administration overruled the Philosophy Department recommendation and did promote Dr. Baumer. Baumer responds In response, Dr. Baumer maintained that he never said that Dr. Lawler was undesirable; that he did not recall that Dr. Lawler was a member of the Faculty 45 until he fead it in The Spectrum after the decision had been made; and that he had no grudge against the Philosophy Department. Dr. Gelbaum asked for my opinion on this matter (Dr. Lawler’s reappointment), Dr. Baumer explained, adding that he provided an opinion with regard to Dr. Lawler’s “scholarly qualities teaching and research.” He reiterated that a faculty member’s political affiliations was the business of the individual faculty member and not a factor to be considered in academic reappointment decisions. reappointment. Lawler No political factors Overruling official endorsements The Lawler case has provoked a great deal of controversy in the University because of Dr. Lawler’s during reappointment. A number of Dr. Lawler’s colleagues in the Philosophy Department are now working oh a petition to be presented to Dr. Gelbaum.. Additionally, a student/faculty committee is working to assure Dr. Lawler’s renewal. Dr. Gelbaum expects to resolve the Lawler case within the next week.

Shortly, a hearing will be set with representatives of the union, the University and the state labor board to review the organizing forms. A committee of campus workers from every department in food service, is still collecting signatures. The union organizer said that they want to get more than the required number of signatures to safeguard against possible attempts by the company to disqualify some members. He added that they expected the election to be held by the first week in May to determine whether the majority of food service workers desire union representation. Job threats As the emphasis begins to shift from signature to preparing for the election, the organizer said that much work will have to be done to further explain the benefits of having a union. According to the organizer, one worker who had signed was told by a supervisor, that when the union was established, that person’s job was going to be terminated because of cutbacks. Fortunately, the worker recognized that this was art attempt to frighten him away from the union, and was not intimidated. The organizer charged that another worker had organizing forms taken away by a supervisor. The union informed the company that this was illegal, and that if it happened again, they would file charges with the National Labor Relations Board. A worker has a right to engage in union activity, as long as it doesn’t occur during work time when it would interfere with the person’s job, the organizer added. Union members earn more ' There are about 270 Food Service workers at this University and a large portion are part-time employees. The union spokesman said that the part-time workers would be included in the union, and that they would receive benefits under a union contract, just as full-time workers would. He pointed out that food service workers at Buffalo State College are working under a union contract, and are averaging $.50 to $1 more per hour job classification than Food Service workers at the State University of Buffalo. The organizer added that there is interest among some students and groups to build an organization to support the Food Service porkers if they so desire it. For further information, the union can be reached at 882-4012-. All calls will be kept confidential. • 853-1515 • where they can.

Miller Staff Writer Spectrum “I have nothing against you personally, but I hate you because the system made me hate white people, and you’re white,” declared Bassette at the Hugh organizational meeting of the Committee Against Racism last Wednesday. The Committee Against Racism is a nationwide, multi-racial organization of faculty and students that has declared war against the recent upsurge of racism on campuses, or “academic racism.” Charles Reitz, a member of the Progressive Labor Party (PLP), defined racism as “the specific oppression of aminority, a specific oppression that depresses the entire standard of living for whites and the middle class.” Mr. Reitz: cited tuition hikes, budget cuts, and tenure quotas as “severe materials of oppression,” and said he wants to involve whites as well as black in the committee. Exploring racism at this University, Mr. Bassette criticized the Equal Opportunity Program (EOP), and the Black Studies department for v practicing racism. “The EOP program is mismanaged,” he charged, referring to long delays in the payment of EOP checks and the fact that no permanent director has been appointed for the program. Do-it-yourself The Black Studies department also has no permanent director, although a search has been going on for two years. Angered that there were two whites teaching in the Black Studies he program, maintained: “To really understand an experience, you have to go through it ypurself.” Mr. Bassette also spoke against th6 racist harassment of black and radical students: 'The purpose of Campus Security is to keep blacks and radical whites in line now these fools are to supposed get guns, and I think they will,” he said “We can only rely on ourselves to fight — Foundations of Education. Racism, he explained, “is part of a more general class structure in American problem society. The white student is getting screwed around just as much as the black student. The tactic used is separate and divide,” he asserted. Dr. Woock believes it is in our self-interest to fight racism since it hurts and everyone, economically, socially. “Racism is one of Ketter’s weapons to divide us," he maintained - . United front To fight racism, Dr Woock suggested that the Committee Against Racism publicly oppose The Spectrum, Ethos , and the EOF program. He would like to see faculty, students, parents and organizations like BSU unite with labor unions to create unity. “Our perspective is to fight every day in the classrooms,” he said. Mr. Bassette does not believe that whites and blacks can work together to fight racism. The only way to stop racism is to “smash the government, and whites are not going to help do this,” he asserted. “Blacks will do it.” Blacks and whites can work together to fight racism only by controlling communications, added Mr. Bassette. He explained that people are not bom with racist attitudes they come from books, magazines, papers, and parents. “You, can’t sit at a seminar and come out of the door and say Tm not racist anymore’," Mr. Bassette said. The University administration cannot be relied on, according to Mr. Bassette. “When you go to the President with a problem, he says, T didn't know this was happening,’ he writes down what your complaint is, gives you coffee, and starts talking. Then he gives the problem to a committee that just drags it out - ” ‘Apple cart’ Mr. Bassette felt most of the Black r I -<4 Studies staff also refuses to fight racism because they “don’t want to upset their apple cart.” Opposing Mr. Reitz’s appeal to “build the revolution,” Mr. Bassette declared that “whites leave when it's time to act.” Mr. Reitz responded that the time to act is now, and that the problems of blacks and whites are synonymous. A Revolutionary Communist Youth (RCY) member charged that the Committee Against Racism does not have a strategy and that its actions would not end racism. After proposing that racism could be fought by ending capitalism, he was interrupted by a member of the audience who asserted: “1 agree that capitalism causes racism, but nope of only acts your ‘isms’ will end racism will” Mr. Bassette also attacked the RCY member, arguing that “pasting up posters hasn’t changed black babies dying from a lack of health care.” In response to Mr. Reitz’s repeated attempts to shift the discussions from ideologies to activities on the University campus, Mr. Bassette said that blacks do not have the time to “sit around and plan for long-range goals.” The system has laready started killing blacks, he said. “They will get you too, and there won’t — - be anything left except a 1 nation of sheep.” At this point, someone from the audience added: “A nation of white sheep.” Speaking on racist indoctrination in the University, Dr. Wdock accused History professor John Halstead and Philosophy professor Paul Kurtz of being racists. One of Dr. Halstead’s courses is Cross-listed with the Black Studies department, Mr. Bassette pointed out. “This shows the total lack of concern on this campus,” he said. Textbooks, harassment, 77ie research, hiring, Spectrum, Ethos, and Humanist magazine are all racist, maintained Dr. Woock. Mr. Bassette attacked the situation of the average black student at this University. He said EOP counselors fight each other while students don’t know what’s going on. ‘There are a lot of foolish people here, playing pool and drinking wine,” Mr. Bassette contended. This is done on purpose, he asserted. He felt the University deliberately accepts “foolish people so that they can say that blacks don’t belong here. The blacks in the comer of the Ray playing cards they don’t hate white people individually, but the system made them that way, through a process of division,” claimed Mr. Bassette. — Kraftowitz chosen as editor of ‘The Spectrum’ Larry Kraftowitz, Campus Editor of The Spectrum since January, 1973, was elected Editor-in-Chief for the 1974-75 year last Wednesday. An English major in his junior year, Mr. Kraftowitz, 20, has been a member of The Spectrum since the beginning of his sophomore year. Although he realizes that many people are not interested in the day-to-day coverage of campus news, he hopes to stimulate awareness of “the important issues that affect all students, such as the future of the Colleges, Health Care, grading, the' four-course load, arming, teaching effectiveness, and insuring a greater student voice in academic decisions.” Strong stances Mr. Kraftowitz plans to write “well-informed and perceptive editorials,” and will attempt to gather as much input as possible from knowledgable sources. “The Spectrum should continue to take strong stances against the trend towards traditional academic programs at the expense of the innovative and creative,” he explained. Although he feels the student government and student press can work together on many important issues, Mr. Kraftowitz said the press “must also sSrve as a check on government.” Mr. Kraftowitz would like to see more in-depth Gustav coverage of city news, explaining that “most University students live in the Buffalo community and what happens in the city directly affects them.” Other plans for expansion include the addition of an “Op-Ed” page, similar to that of The New York Times “where people from the University and outside community may respond to the broad range of areas from campus issues to philisophical issues.” Mr. Kraftowitz feels diversification is important in a newspaper; in addition to campus artd city news, he will emphasize “analysis of national issues and in-depth feature stories on pressing social issues, such a$ drugs, discrimination, freedom of the press, poverty and the environment.” Mr. Kraftowitz said he would explore the possibility of making the Prodigal Sun, the Friday arts and music section of The Spectrum, a separate fourth issue to be distributed throughout Buffalo. He is considering adding a creative writing section, encompassing short stories, poetry and miscellaneous features, to the Prodigal Sun. In addition, he hopes to disprove the notion that the newspaper office is a “haven for white, middle-class students” by attracting interested minority students. A native of Laurelton, Mr. Kraftowitz’s only previous journalistic experience before coming to the University was writing “two sports stories for the school newspaper at Springfield Gardens High School.” Gus The guy to see for the , —Santos Larry Kraftowitz — cheapest Xerox copies in town! 355 Norton Hall M-F.9-5 Gustav Monday, 15 April 1974 The Spectrum . .

Opposition to Dr. Reichert’s motion is promised „by Faculty-Senate chairman-elect George Hochfield. The Faculty-Senate Committee on Teaching Effectiveness has already reviewed the Analysis of Courses and Teachers (ACT), program. The two-year experimental program, due to end this spring, used student evaluations of University professors to evaluate their teaching performances. The results, as explained by ACT director Bruce Francis, were to be used by faculty to improve their teaching, and by students to aid in choosing instructors. debate. There are indications that faculty unions are taking a completely different stance on the issue than either Dr. Reichert or Dr. Hochfield. The union apparently does not want the Faculty-Senate to even consider the legislation. Dr. Hochfield terms this a good example of faculty fears concerning students evaluation teaching performances. Student input is vitally needed at this Faculty-Senate meeting. “If no one feels threatened,” explained Dr. Reicher, “no one will show up. We need student input into this thing. It is vital. Tell your friends to come."

Evaluation or bureaucracy Hochfleld feels that Dr. students “ought to have the primaiy responsibility in the creation of the instruments.” He does not think that any program can improve teaching effectiveness. Dr. Reichert, on the other hand, wants to preserve the Analysis of Courses and Teachers program because he feels that it can improve teaching effectiveness. “Decentralization will just create more bureaucracy and so , many committees,” explained Dr. Hochfield, adding that it is just not viable. “No one knows what they want,” he. commented. He wants the students to bear the burden of the evaluation program, although Mark Humm, SA Academic Affairs Coordinator, has pleaded with the Faculty-Senate not to place this burden on the Student Association.

The Canon F-1 is the camera that can fulfill any photographic task to which you put it. It can stand up to your ability in any situation. Dr. Hochfield and Dr. Reichert appear to agree only on one subject: the dissemination of the results of the questionnaires. ‘The expression of faculty fears is outrageous,” said Dr. Hochfield. It is widely acknowledged that many faculty members refuse to have the results of their student evaluations made known. There will be further complications in tomorrow’s Page six . The Spectrum .

However, his death last week caught most of the world by surprise, and set off a near chaotic scrimmage for the succession. “His death was a brutal blow to declared France,” Jean-Francois Merle, contributor to the New Observer, a French socialist periodical, a$d currently a teaching assistant in the Department of French at this University. Mr. Merle discussed the state of France after Pompidou Tuesday at a program sponsored by the Departments of French and Political Science at the faculty club*'' Mr. Merle said even though the death of the President was a great surprise to many observers, had been Mr. Pompidou preparing for a changeover in power months ago. In December the ailing leader sought out top-level cabinet posts for many of his associates. He removed the head the government of controlled television system and installed a “high civil servant with a sense of obedience,” according to Mr. Merle. In addition, Pompidou’s chief press aide was given a high echelon position in the hierarchy of the nationalized TV stations. As further evidence of this subtle transition Mr. Merle President explained that Pompidou had included items in the French supplemental budget that “contained obvious electoral measures in a time of inflation.” Unfortunately the second President of France’s Fifth Republic died before he was able to choose his successor. The result has been a “great uncertainty,” in a country that has been ardently trying to assume a position of leadership in an uneasy Europe, Mr. Merle maintained. One of the most important effects of Pompidou’s suddent death, according to Mr. Merle, was the fierce division of Gaullist forces for the first time in 25 years. This may result in the election of a leftist President a new experience for the French people. The Gaullists have divided led by into three camps; — Jacques reform-minded conservative Chaban-Deimas, Valery Giscard D’Estaing, and Edgar Faure, a pro-business politician. This triple-split might prove beneficial to Francois Mitterrand, leader of the Socialist Party. Mitterrand ran for President in 1965 and forced de Gaulle into a runoff election. Since then he has built up a strong connection with the Communist Party. When asked about the future of the French strength Presidency, Mr. Merle said If a Gaullist was elected he would "keep the constitution as it is but would be more dependent on parliamentary politics.” If Mr. Mitterrand wins, he stated, there will be some limitation to the power President’s “as is consistent with the Communist' and Socialist parties.” Even by Jeffrey S.

Fifty years ago the rails ran America. Today only a miracle and massive amounts of money will save them from extinction. Luckily for us, though, many of the structures which served the railroads are still standing as silent monuments to history. While, most have been dormant for some time, few are demolished soon after closing. Unfortunately vandalism has ruined quite a few of the old stations, but despite the broken windows, the old majesty and mystique come through. These photographs were taken in various places. The Erie-Lackawanna Hoboken terminal was built in 1907. Trains would pull into Hoboken and the passengers would then transfer to cross-Hudson steam ferries. Busses displaced the ferries in the early '60's. Another interesting site is the East Salamanca B&O yards which is the home of continually running, unmanned trains. The water tower dates from steam engine days; on a siding sat a few former passenger cars which once served as homes for B&O employees. Finally, there are a few assorted photos: the Buffalo Erie-Lackawanna station, as viewed from its deserted switchhouse; the Sayre, Penna. Erie station, long empty; and the Raritan River Railroad (Sayervilld, N.J.) freight office, still in operation. ISiJ Monday, 15 April 1974 The Spectrum . .

"The responsibility for censorship does not rest with the state or federal government." observed Congressman Jack Kemp. "Student newspapers serve far loo many important functions," said Robert Berdahl, chairman of the University's Higher Education Department. The funding of student newspapers "should be continued,' said SUNY Board of Trustee member William Hassett. "I am opposed to the principles behind the bill," said State Assemblyman Chester Hardt. The question is whether the widespread opposition to encompassing not only students but faculty/ the bill administrators, legislators, the press and community leaders can influence the vote on the bill in the State Senate tomorrow. Sponsored by John Marchi, the bill has strong conservative and Republican support and has a good chance of passing the Senate. Lobbyists view their best chance of killing this repressive bill in the State Assembly, where Assembly Speaker Perry Duryea could bottle it up in the Rules Committee. Two years ago, SUNY Chancellor Ernest Boyer persuaded Mr.- Duryea to sit „on a bill abolishing student fees; a similar scenario is possible this year. Conservative support for the bill stems from anger that certain college newspapers have printed what they consider most recently an allegedly 'obscene' material the City College of New York pornographic cartoon in and has fueled charges that student newspapers have misused public funds. While there have been abuses in the college press, most student newspapers across the state have been extremely responsible, often more so than the professional media. But the way to combat occasional abuses is not by totally eliminating student publications, the only medium which can reach and inform an entire college community. A far 'more intelligent method of controlling abuses would be to transfer editorial responsibility for libel from the particular universities to the student editors who publish each campus newspaper. This the bill would also after, of course, it has cut off their funding. This is a do counter-productive action which would completely sacrifice campus communication to prevent an occasional offensive cartoon or article. The answer is increased responsibility on the student editors, which would increase editorial restraint; not the elimination of the college press entirely. We believe that a law which specifically bans the use of student fees for student newspapers would be clearly unconstitutional, a violation of the First Amendment's press freedoms and an interference in the vital dissemination of news to college communities. Such a punitive law could be interpreted as blatant censorship by the state government because the lawmakers disliked certain published material; a censorship that would extend to every student publication in the state, whether guilty of improprieties or not. It must be emphasized that student activity fees are not public tax monies, but a $67 fee which the State University collects from students with their consent for the sole purpose of serving the student body. Student newspapers undoubtedly fit every guideline for student fees established by the SUNY Board of Trustees —-but the State Legislature is attempting to play politics with how the fees are spent. Despite some exaggerated claims, students are not forced to subsidize campus newspapers. Each state campus has regular referendums as to whether a mandatory tee should be collected at all, and then the students' elected the student government decides representatives whether student publications should be funded and how much money they should receive. By passing this law, the ostensibly claiming to protect the "rights" of Legislature students will actually be imposing its will on students, as well as eliminating the most essential means of communication on state campuses. The reactions of all individuals and groups to this law which borders on outright censorship has been almost universally negative. We hope the State Senators voting and tomorrow will be guided by reason, not emotion ways by are better to control abuses than realize that there the most vital information source eliminating completely on every State University campus. �MAD Ail ABOUT IT - . . .

While we disagree that Prof. Lawler represents the continuity of the class-struggle politics of Karl Marx, we nevertheless stand in solidarity with him against the administration. Although we give no political support to Lawler, defense of the left against attack is a basic socialist principle which we have consistently upheld. To abandon this principle is to pave the way for further repressions. An attack on one is an attack on all! REINSTATE LAWLER! UNIVERSITY HANDS OFF THE LEFT! To the Editor: Against the background of continuing financial cutbacks throughout the University, and attacks on the most minimal democratic reforms of the University such as the Colleges, Dr. James Lawler, despite complete support from his department and Faculty, is being fired by the U.B. administration. The RCY unconditionally supports Prof. Lawler’s right to teach at U.B. Dr. Lawler is a radical academic who fancies himself a Marxist, and it is because of his political beliefs and activities that he is being purged from Revolutionary Lawler:i ooivital contribution Youth hjh To the Editor: It does not take any wild stretch of the imagination to comprehend that the termination of Dr. Lawler’s contract was motivated by political rather than reasons. Thus, while we can attest to Dr. Lawler's erudition and competence as a professor, we fully realize that these are not the issues at hand. What then are the underlying reasons for termination of his contract? We would assert that Dr. Lawler’s progressive stance on University and national issues are seen as a threat to this University’s administration; and in a broader context his views stand in grating opposition to the policies of an economic system that finds it increasingly necessary to squeeze out (whether from the universities or upper echelon jobs) sectors of the working class women, Blacks, and other Third World groups in order to propser. This latest incident is symptomatic of this squeezing out trend. It is not a far step from the arming of the campus security police and the severe constraints imposed upon the Colleges by , the passing of the Reichert Prospectus to the termination of Dr. Lawler’s contract. The depth of this trend is indicated by the fact that even though Dr. Lawler’s reappointment was “favored’ by the philosophy department faculty, the philosophy department chair-person, the personnel committee of the Faculty of Social Sciences, and the acting Provost of Social Sciences, his contract has been terminated. A philosophy department which is prohibited from offering courses to students in Marxist philosophy is a department which omits s chunk and significant contribution to philosophical thought. We demand that Dr Lawler’s contract be renewed. John Noonan Stephen Gencarello Steven Ewald Robert B.

Disappointed P.S. Your pendulum is swinging more to the right every day! So enough already. Where is spring? I mean if there is a ransom involved, let’s hear about it so that we can respond. It’s enough to make one think Hades has carried off Persephone again. What’s the matter, your classic education showing a few weak spots? I learned about the legend by being caught in an art gallery with a group of obnoxious scholars. (Note; an “obnoxious scholar” is anyone who knows more than I do about something and does not have the decency to keep their mouth shut.) It seems that Hades, lord of the underworld, carried off poor old Persephone back down to his domain where he raped her. This, rather understandably, upset her mother, Demcter. This lady set out looking for her daughter, who was nowhere to be found on earth v. seeing as how she was being held captive in hell. In | l|p • addition to which Demcter, who was in charge of growing things, said that all this growing and multiplying on the earth was about to cease, forthwith, until someone did something about her daughter. by Steese So crops failed, and no new lambs were bom, and the ears of the gods were soon ringing with the besccchmepts and cursings of men. Of which they soon tired would you like the whole world yelling at you all the time? And they went and found Demeter and said, how about it, lady? To which she sensibly responded, do something about my daughter. So the rest of the gods called up Hades and a bargain was struck but only because Persephone had only eaten two seeds all the time she had been in hell. (Apparently, if she ate normally she would have had to stay there, and if she ate nothing maybe she could have left free and clear.) Anyway it was finally agreed that Persephone could come back and live with her mother three-quarters of the year, but had to stay with Hades the other quarter. So, we have winter, when she is down in hell, and spring when she first comes back, summer when everything is fine, and autumn when she is getting ready to leave again. So for this year I could were I a pagan, which no one in their right mind would admit in a monotheistic society really get anxious that Hades is not cooperating per the legal separation, and Demeter, ever the protective mother, is passing the flack on to us again. When 1 first read the above story, I was struck by the activity level and power of Demeter. No screaming, no hysterics, just a straightforward assessment of what she could do.

In general, it seems that an inordinate number of TV shows, perhaps it is more old movies but that doesn’t feel quite right, depend on somebody frequently a woman doing something stupid. Think about it. What fun would it be if people acted sensibly in a horror movie? Somebody has disappeared in the cave from which there were screams and strange gurglings. “Come, let us go and see why people have disappeared and there are strange gurglings.” Does anyone ever say, at this crucial point of plot development, “Are you crazy? We have no idea what we are looking for but it might be dangerous and I think we should take precautions?” Rarely does one hear anyone talk that but I could be watching an even worse than way average set of TV shows. Mind you, I don’t think so, but the logical possibility exists. Or it may just be that competent, effective. sensible people, either female or male, arc harder to write about. It is much easier to talk about a situation in which someone does something which other people have to resolve, than it is to talk about the more reality-consistent problems of people dealing with a world resembling our own.

Head coach Jim McDonough, entering his second year at the helm of the track program, will be pressed to exceed his victory total of one in his initial season. This year’s team faces another tough schedule highlighted by the New York State Indoor Champion Cortland. One of the runners McDonough and Assistant coach Don Sauer will be counting on is Eldred Stephens, a freshman speedster from Niagara Falls. Stephens was thd mainstay of the indoor season, placing fourth in the N.Y.S. Indoor Championships in the 60-yard dash. His time of 0:06.3 was only one-tenth of a second off the qualifying time of 0:06.2 for the NCAA Indoor Championships. (A 0:06.3 indoor time for 60 yards is equivalent to aD;09.6 in the 100.) Stephens’ talents aren’t limited to' running. He also excels in the long and triple jumps placing fourth in the N.Y.S. indoor championships in the triple jump with a jump of 45 feet 3 inches. His best effort of the indoor season was a 45 foot 9Vi inch effort at the Pitt Invitational, and he long jumped 22 feet 10 inches at the Ohio State Relays. Joining Stephens in the sprint relays this spring will be Larry Stokar, with the other two spots still open. The Bulls will open the outdoor season short on middle-distance runners. Larry Mentkowski, top middle distance man for the Bulls, is out with an injbry, and the time of his return is as yet undetermined. Senior captain Doug Lake will be competing in the 440, and will be joined by Pete Cosola and. A1 Moore in the distance relays.

We lost to Brockport last year, and we still have to beat St. John’s tomorrow (Saturday),” Monkarsh added. The field at Creedmoor resembled the streets of San Francisco, featuring many hills and valleys. The Bulls had taken a 6—1 lead after five and a half innings before the roof fell in. Catcher Gary Cox’s pair of doubles accounted for two of the Bulls runs, while third baseman Gary Montour’s single accounted for two 1 more.

Rubin Spectrum Staff Writer Buffalo lacrosse is now in its third year. The team is led by Pat Abrami, an attackman who paced the Bulls in scoring last year and figures to repeat this year. Hank Brandenstein and Luke Schalinger wil help out Abrami on the front line, and Paul Rotondo and Wally Davis should add punch from the midfield. Head Coach Frank Szoka feels that these five will score at least S0% of all Buffalo goals. Last year, the lacrosse Bulls posted a 5-3 mark which pleased Szoka. “1 think we won all the games we should have won, except for one,” he laid. That game was a 13-10 loss at Oswego State. This year, though, Oswego wil come to Buffalo and Szoka was hopeful: “We 'should be able to get a measure of revenge.” New look The Bulls have a new look this April 20 year. An entire midfield has not returned from last year along with other key players, and a new large wave of talented freshmen and transfer students has come on the scene. Szoka admitted that the revamped team “hasn’t jelled,” but he expected that this would not severely hurt the team’s play. “Any coach is an eternal optimist. It’s how we play that counts. 1 would hope that we get to play better as a team during the season,” observed Szoka. Unlike most of the athletic teams at Buffalo, the lacrosse team is a club team. Therefore, eligibility is not restricted to undergrads and many of the Bulls are graduate students, notably Abrami and Szoka himself.

On every State University campus in New York State, student newspapers represent the only means of communication for students, faculty and administrators for the entire college community. Far from being partisan vehicles for student opinion, student publications serve the - vital function of disseminating news. Without them, faculty and administrators would be unable to announce meetings, services, academic matters, deadlines, activities, policy decisions, or any other campus event or decision of importance. The bill approved by the State Senate's Higher to be discussed Education Committee Thursday morning would prohibit by the State Senate on Tuesday mandatory student fees from being used to fund student newspapers on any SUNY or CUNY campus. While one or two newspapers might partially survive on advertising revenue, practically every other student publication in the state subsists on student fees and would be forced to stop publishing if this bill becomes law. The bill is said to have considerable Republican and conservative support. In large measure, this support stems from the feeling that certain college newspapers have abused their funds by publishing obscene material. An allegedly pornographic cartoon printed by the City College of New York newspaper recently aroused the ire of Senator James Buckley and many others. However, any objective judge would have to admit that overall, student newspapers across the state have been extremely responsible, with occasional abuses occurring far A far more less often than in the professional media. intelligent method of controlling abuses would be to transfer editorial responsibility for libel from the particular universities to the student editors who publish each campus newspaper. This the bill would also do, but with the added provision of completely cutting off their funding. This is a counter productive action which would completely sacrifice campus communication to prevent an occasional offensive cartoon or article. The answer is increased responsibility on the student editors, which would increase editorial restraint; not the elimination of the college press entirely. specifically banning the We believe that such a law would be use of student fees for student newspapers Amendment's violation of the First unconstitutional, a the vital press freedoms and an interference in dissemination of news to college communities. Such a punitive law could be interpreted as blatant censorship by the state government because the lawmakers disliked certain published material; a censorship that would extend to every student publication in the state, whether guilty of improprieties or not. There are many larger questions whether a State Legislature law could supercede the SUNY Board of Trustees fee guidelines, which clearly permit the funding of student newspapers; and the issue, as in health care, of if the State should be able to control the expenditure of student fees with no input from those who the students. must pay the $67 We strongly urge every concerned individual to call, write or send a $1 "public opinion" telegram (by dialing 1 800 257 2221 toll free) to their State Legislator, and especially Senate majority leader Warren Anderson and Assembly Speaker Perry Duryea, admonishing them to vote against this bill. Students are not forced to subsidize we are student newspapers, as some have claimed students, of poll faculty and confident that a state campus would reveal administrators on any overwhelming support for the funding of student newspapers, the only medium which can reach and inform an entire college community. We hope that the State Senators voting Tuesday will clearly think this issue that through and reach the only inevitable conclusion there are better ways to control abuses than by completely eliminating the most vital information source for students, faculty and administrators on every State University campus. Student newspapers at State Universities and Colleges will cease to exist, if the State Legislature passes a bill that would prhibit the use of mandatory student fees to finance campus publications. For the survival of a free, unrestricted disemmmation of news, please immediately send emergency telegrams to your State Assemblyman and Senator, urging them to vote against Bill 5 -4638., which has just been approved by the Senate Higher Education Committee and will be voted on by the State Senate this Tuesday.

Esposito Spectrum Staff Writer Legislation to open now-confidential student flies to college students has been introduced' in the New York State Senate and Assembly. The bill is co-sponsored by State Senator John Flynn (R., Yonkers and the Bronx) and State Assemblyman Anthony Olivieri (D., Manhattan). 1 The legislation, which would change a section of the state education code dealing with disclosure of information contained in personal student flies, would “cover all personal files in the college which can be retrieved under the student’s name. Social Security number, student identification number, or any other identifying code,” explained Senator Flynn. The bill would enable college students to examine their personal files and rectify any errors with their own comments. In addition. Senator Flynn said that “students could add more data" to their files. Students to check files The law would cover all colleges and universities chartered by the Regents of New York State. Any college now maintaining student! records “other than grades” would be required by law to inform students of the existence of the record and the date the file was initiated, unless the student supplied the school with all the information in the file. Students would be given access to their files “at least once per semester and at reasonable intervals thereafter,” in order to check their own records and to supplement them with “any document or comment the student feels is relevant,” Senator Flynn explained. Furthermore, the university would be required to “record the names and positions of all persons inspecting the student’s file, the date of such inspections, and the purpose of the inspection,” Senator Flynn added. Also, the college may not disclose information in any file to anyone not employed by the college without prior approval of the student or, if the student could not be — Public demands more privacy A statement from Assemblyman Olivieri asserted that “an increase in public demand for personal privacy” is now apparent. This bill is one step in an attempt to halt encroachment on individual privacy.’ Mr. Olivieri cited [and] the “the White House enemies list,’ FBI records Watergate furor’ as underscoring the need for the bill. The proposed law is now being considered in the Education Committee of both the State Assembly and Senate. Neither Senator Flynn nor Nancy Abraham, an assistant to Assemblyman Olivieri, would speculate on the likelihood that the bill would be passed by the legislature. The law would go into effect on the September 1st after passage. Thus, if passed this session, it would become law this fall. ‘ ... ‘5% chance of passage The law was requested by the City University Student Senate. The need for the legislation came from “several cases of abuse at sopie schools,’ involving interference by the New York State Department of Unemployment, the Welfare Department, and police officials, according to Joseph Meyerson, formerly Vice-Chairman for Legislative Affairs for theCity University Student Senate. voluntary confidential Mr. Meyerson said that credentials files consisting of letters of recommendation would probably not be covered by this law. [see The Spectrum, March 13, 1974] The status of health, psychological, and legal aid information would not be altered, as they aje already protected by professional ethics,’ Mr. Meyerson added.

Americans tolerated the ugly realities of war for ten years, squirming through the nightly gore of wounded bodies in living color. They saw 50,000 of our young men killed; saw hospitals and dikes bombed; watched American bombers obliterate villages and make six million Asian refugees homeless. Then we signed our laughable "peace" agreement, withdrew our troops in exchange for our ROW'S, and continued the war by proxy; substituting yellow bodies for white ones. But our proxy war in Indochina is not a new strategy, only the latest phase in 20 years of an American attempt to impose its will on Vietnam. France could not have fought in Indochina in the 1950's without American money and supplies; after the French defeat in 1954, we continued to support puppet dictatorships in South Vietnam until we escalated our role to direct military involvement. We sent in U.S. troops in 1965 after the fabricated Gulf of Tonkin incident, and when eight years of ground fighting and bombing failed to win the war and was politically rejected at home, we withdrew our troops. But we did not end our involvement. Instead, we have single-handedly kept an unpopular dictator in power by financing General Nguyen van Thieu's million-man army and police state rule. South Vietnam has systematically violated the Paris peace agreements with American guns, American ammunition and American money: $2.2 billion this year, with more hidden in "economic aid" actually used for weapons. As a signatory to the peace agreements, we have violated our word both legally and morally. As the supposed defender of South Vietnam against Communism (a tired rationale rendered ludicrous by our accommodation with Russia and China), we have financed a' police state far more repressive than most socialist regimes. And after bombing and defoliating Indochina for a decade, only this we continue to fuel death and destruction there time yellow bodies do the killing with our guns. When Senator Edward Kennedy requested information about the Nixon Administration's Indochina policy, Saigon Ambassador Graham Martin wrote Secretary of State Kissinger that "it would be the height of folly to permit Kennedy...the tactical advantage of an honest and detailed answer." The Ambassador also linked Senator Kennedy, an outspoken critic of U.S. policy in Indochina, to "those whose objective is to aid Hanoi." This is the old Administration chestnut: that anyone who disagrees with U.S. policy is either a Communist, a subversive seeking to threaten national security, or an enemy sympathetic to Hanoi or Moscow. Saigon's jails are filled with political prisoners; only General Thieu's huge police force keeps him in power. Political elections would probably produce a neutralist government in Saigon; Thieu knows this, and so he continues to spurn reconciliation by aggressively shelling areas under the other side's control. Since his continuance in power is totally dependent on American military money, he can never allow a state of peace or reconciliation to develop; he must maintain a state of war to receive the guns which keep him in power. President Nixon is sacrificing human lives for selfish political ends as he did when he mercilessly bombed Hanoi and Haiphong during Christmas 1972 to change a few words in the Paris agreement he had no intention of carrying out anyway. General Thieu remains the puppet for American military policy in Vietnam. Those who urge abandoning Thieu, such as Mr. Kennedy, want not a Communist victory but an end to the war we are fueling. Even after last year's pullout from Vietnam, American B-52's continued to rain death on Cambodia until Congress attached an anti-bombing rider to one bill after another and finally tied Mr. Nixon's hands last August 15. Last week, the' House rejected Mr. Nixon's request for $474 million in extra aid to Saigon, and the $2.4 billion requested for next year ($3 billion with secret CIA funds) faces rough opposition. Once American bodies were no longer on the line, the moral protests of youth against the killing in Indochina which turned the nation against the war in the '60's faded with the draft. But the killing goes on; the war goes on; the human misery continues, financed solely by American taxpayers' dollars. As we forced this country out of Vietnam and forced an end to the bombing of Cambodia, we must pressure Congress into slashing the death money that enables a police state dictator to continue to wage war. We bear the responsibility for the human destruction in Indochina, and as long as we continue to look the other way, the blood of slaughtered thousands remains on our hands. Page four Hie Spectrum Friday, 12 April 1974 - — — — — . . BLT from Buffalo April 12,1974 The ten years that have passed since Barry Goldwater's unsuccessful Presidential bid have been years of confusion, transition, political polarization and finally, reconciliation in the face of the threat of Presidential abuses, which have threatened to undermine the entire democratic process. -The ten-year span seaprating us from the election of 1964 seems to have crystallized the issues of that campaign into a hard and fast contrast of right and left. The complete reversal of position by Lyndon Johnson after he was elected (the bombing of North Vietnam which he had decried as a grave error, committing American ground troops to Indochina after promising never to do so) and the subsequent disappearance of Mr. Gold water from national political life, placed the entire 1964 campaign into an isolated perspective from which it was often — viewed but rarely questioned. The tenth anniversary of that huge Democratic landslide, inevitable comparisons made to George McGovern’s 1972 defeat, and the recent outspoken criticisms of Richard Nixon made by Senator Goldwater, have combined to focus considerable the Barry Goldwater, attention on decisively-defeated Presidential candidate, and Barry Goldwater, the revivified political strong man. Hectic events of the last year have also added to the build-up of a certain nostalgic sentiment for the old the 1964 election when everything was so days” clearly divided along ideological lines. The 1964 Republican National convention in San Francisco’s Cow Palace full of yahoos, haters, and nuts” was recalled recently by Roy Reed, The New York Times Southern correspondent, as the scene of a spontaneous outburst of fascist energy which filled the air. A similar observation made by Drew Pearson at the convention labelled it a modern fascist rally. The extremist labels no doubt hindered Mr. Goldwater’s effort and left him branded as a dangerous radical who had moved so far to the right that he could not rule the country without dragging it into a third world war. The charges were unfair, many of them more rumors based on misconceptions and unfounded doubts. In retrospect, they seem foolish. They did, however, hit their mark with deadly accuracy. Mr. ‘ — - ‘ Goldwater himself commented after the election: “If I hadn’t known Barry Goldwater in 1964 and had to depend on the press and the cartoons, 1 d have voted against the son of a bitch.” Mr. Goldwater is now an influential but tame Senator from the State of Arizona. His behavior over the last decade has transported him back into the fold of American politics while the more extreme of his followers have remained outcasts searching for a new right-wing candidate to latch onto. It appears they have found their man in the person of George Wallace. Mr. Wallace is enjoying the best of two worlds; the big-time political elbow rubbing with Washington power brokers and Northeast liberals on one hand; and the traditional Southern mass-rally demogoguery with grass-roots organization on the other. In their haste to level attacks against corrupt politicians now in office, the press has failed to critically survey the advances made by Governor Wallace. The distinction between conservative and liberal viewpoints have not disappeared; they’ve become less clear. Non-partisan attacks against Presidential abuses of power coming from all points on the political spectrum make those distinctions all the more vague. The haste to unite against a common front should not be allowed to cloud underlying and important ideological distinctions. The recent public opinion surveys depict Senator Edward Kennedy and Governor Wallace as the two leading choices for the 1976 Democratic nomination. This unlikely combination is due primarily to the respectability attributed to Mr. Wallace’s toned-down rhetoric, and his ostensible shift toward the center so carefully engineered. The philosophical rift separating the two is difficult to locate when they appear together in public, shaking hands and extolling the nebulous virtues of “the people.” Political respectability is granted as easily as it is denied. Journalistic zeal aimed at avoiding a repeat of the distortions of 1964 may very well go too far in the opposite direction, lending blanket credibility and respect to a candidate who may not deserve it. Balancing one extreme with another is no substitute for responsible political coverage. Platforms, campaign activities should always be put into perspective, a perspective which does justice to the candidate and permits the reader to keep track of what is happening with more clarity than a sequence of unrelated, and perhaps confusing, statements. Mr. Reed concluded his article with a curious observation. He refers to the celebrated “scent of fascism which filled the air” in 1964 as a description of current Wallace rallies where “the fever is running high.” He makes one interesting distinction, however. In 1964, it came from the convention floor and swamped the leaders who failed to keep it in check. At Wallace rallies, it comes from the leaders and is foisted upon unknowing crowds who eagerly devour if. The danger of irrational politicking should not be lost amidst Mr. Wallace’s new found and often unchallenged respectability. - The Spectrum Vd. 24, No. 73 Friday. 12 April 1974 Editor-In-Chief Howie Kurtz — Managing Editor Janis Cromer Business Manager Dave Simon Aaat.

The narrator, Allert, has values. In an interview, Hawkes says, been sent on a pleasure cruise "I don't advocate crippling; I'm alone, his wife Ursula sends him an opponent of torture. I deplore aboard the white ship. The white ship, becalmed the nightmare; I deplore terror.

He is sexually aroused, achieves an erection and "Suddenly, marvellously, I \ ... — — 'The Cask of Amontillado"); it is rare that such a narrator can sustain the length of a novel.

Typically, questioned, when Hawkes comes up with some cryptic statement about the comedy of the narrative voice and the ironic reconsideration of the genre of the novel; but this is brushing under the narrative rug the fact that obsession with personal voice has led Hawkes to needless interiority and ambiguity of intention. Instead of the narrative detachment that is Hawkes' ideal, in the recent novels the reader wanjts the author there beside him to clarify intentions. Death, Sleep & the Traveller powerfully evokes nightmare, it is a brilliant, resonant and very peculiar failure. — — Originality After the publication of The Blood Oranges in 1971, Robert Scholes asked Hawkes about the use of personal nightmares or other semi- or subconscious material in his work. Hawkes replied, "Certainly not... I believe in coldness, detachment, ruthlessness, a lot of consciousness in the choice of narrative material... In the process of writing my hope is to liberate the kind of energy and to uncover the kinds of material that seem desperately and beautifully essential to us as readers." From stated affiliations with the comic-nightmare modes of Djuna Barnes, Nathaniel West and Flannery O'Connor, Hawkes *fjas created a shape for the novel that is distinctively and frighteningly his own. His fiction is hallucinatory and chilling, he evokes the madness of one's worst nightmares coming relentlessly true. In his quest for originality and purity he has fallen into certain narrative pitfalls, he's even invented a-few, but he remains the most interesting and most singular novelist writing today.

In general, Clayton tries to give the audience interesting but trivial images to look at while bringing Fitzgerald's story and words to that audience; sugar-coating, as it were, the novel's words with pretty pictures. In Gatsby, Fitzgerald dealt with controversial, almost vulgar matters; marital infidelity, murder, and suicide. He made ambivalent statements on race relations, love, religion, and America's class structure. Fitzgerald's genius was his ability to handle cheap, crass topics with a rare delicacy and wit. Nothing crude is directly confronted in the novel we see the prelude and the results, but seldom the powerful incidents themselves, and certainly never with all the gory details. This shy, indirect approach to the world gives the events the full power of our imaginations. A kiss in Fitzgerald's novel has more love in it than anything I've seen on the screen in a long time. This, then, is one of Fitzgerald's secrets: subtlety sans exotericism . gentleness when dealing with the obvious. — — by Jay Boyar Spectrum Am Editor F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel. The Great Gatsby is now a movie for the third time. After the 1926 silent version came the 1949 attempt. Now, about one-half century since the book was written, comes the 1974 spectacular from Paramount Pictures. Never before has the trumpeting been so loud. "My only concern," says Paramount president Frank Vablans in Time magazine, "is not whether we've oversold it, but rather about the intellectual, purist approach the critics might take. I sense that some of them have a real you-better-show-me attitude." Well sir, they'd better show me! They've begun with one of the most beautiful American novels ever written, they've spent w§)l over six million dollars turning it into a film, and they've promoted it with grand and tricky publicity tactics. Indeed, they had better show all of us. Set in the roaring 20's, The Great Gatsby is the story of a poor boy (Jay Gatsby) who falls in love with Daisy, a rich girl. She promises to marry him, but when he must go to war she instead weds Tom Buchanan who is rich like she. The plot unfolds eight years later as Gatsby (now rich) tries to win Daisy back from Tom. His romantic dream ends up involving Myrtle Wilson (Tom's lover), her husband George, Jordon Baker (Daisy's sportive friend) and Nick Carraway, who does triple duty as Daisy's cousin, Gatsby's neighbor, and the story's narrator. * * * A movie based on a well-loved book brings to mind, once again, the issue of what relationship a book should bear to the film it begets. Basically, three valid courses have been tried by directors. One: Forget the book almost entirely, using some of its superficial features as springboards to create something new; something with little significant connection to the book. This approach is valid only if the director creates a new entity as good as or better than the book it exploits. Woody Allen tried this approach in his flick. Everything You've Always Wanted to Know About Sex. — .. Two: Preserve the feeling, characters, and plot of the book in cinematic terms, while discarding the prose. The film should emerge asan audio/visual entity with the book's spirit. This is a legitimate approach only if the filmic devices equal or surpass the book's literary ones. Three: Create something. which is a cinematically dramatization of the book, calculated to preserve on frm as many of the author's words and ideas as possible in literal terms. Such movies are uninteresting as cinema, but if the window dressings such as actors, music and camera work are good an<J interesting to watch, then the’ experience of seeing such a film can be as pleasurable as hearing people talk intelligently and sympathetically about a novel you love. * The problem plot A problem in adapting this book is that the adaptors remembered the plot very well because Fitzgerald's subtlety burned it into their brains. But those same adaptors forgot that it was the subtlety, not the events themselves, that brought power to the plot. When they went to make a film of the forceful occurrences, they did it in the most scream their heavy-handed way. Close-ups messages; everything happens on screen. There is none of Fitzgerald's quiet whispering. For instance, when Gatsby and narrator Nick first meet in the book, it occurs at Gatsby's party in an off-hand way. It is so much more memorable because its importance is set in clear contrast to its nonchalance. In the midst of partying people, Nick turns to the man next to him and says; 'This is an unusual party for me. / haven't even seen the host. . . this man Gatsby sent over his chauffeur with an invitation." For a moment he looked at me (Nick) as if he failed to understand. "I'm Gatsby,"he said suddenly. "What!" I exclaimed. "Oh, / beg your pardon." "I thought you knew, old sport. I’m afraid I'm not a very good host." Beautiful. In the movie, this scene is turned into a hokey spy-adventure with Nick being led by a scowling henchman into a cloistered study to meet Gatsby. It's like something left over from The Godfather. Incidently, The Godfather's director, Francis Ford Coppola, wrote Gatsby' s screenplay. The living language Language is another difficulty in the film. Fitzgerald had an uncanny gift for writing dialogue just as people speak. The easy, natural flow of pure humanity each work exactly in character and with perfect tone make it seem not so much the secretly-recorded writer's creation as a conversation. In contrast, when Nick narrates the story, the expository passages are, appropriate!'' contemplated, writer's remarks alive with gorge metaphors and verbal wit. Then he kissed her. At his lips' touc blossomed for him like a flower am incarnation was complete. And, had a dog at least had him for a few until he ran away and an old Dodge ai Finnish woman, who made my bed and coo breakfast and muttered Finnish wisdon to hers, over the electric stove. The movie does away with most of Nick narration and practically all of his best lines leaving us with precious few visual statements to take up the slack. Some of the narrative sentences are turned into dialogue this is disastrous. The wonderful effect of Fitzgerald's natural dialogue is destroyed by mixing it with his intentionally studied and artificial exposition that has been turned into dialogue. Half the time the characters talk like peole, and they talk like books the other half. — — / / — — — - — ' Page six The Spectrum Friday, 12 April 1974 . . �1 -fif 1 -» ' y SALE BIG In the novel, there's a lot of music which is presented in the form of people playing and singing songs as a part of the story a band at the party, a phonograph record to dance to, etc. This method is both an affectionate parody of mood music in movies and an attempt to achieve a somewhat - similar effect as that movie mood music does. In the film, when the music comes from a band or an individual who is on camera as a part of the story, it has a beautiful, ambivalent charm. However, when the typical ifiovie background music that springs from nowhere pipes in, it is terribly obtrusive. It is especially maudlin in the scenes at Wilson's garage when the horror of an automobile accident is underscored until the screen is slashed by a dripping, invisible orchestra. Nelson Riddle's melodies have never been more obvious or less appreciated. The obvious overkill This indelicate, sledgehammer approach even taints the more nicely done parts of the film. Waste, carelessness, and decaying idlenesss as by-products of wealth are visually well-established. The rich characters lounge around their homes swamped in sweat (no air-conditiong in the '20's) sparingly in Fitzgerald's book. I was afraid that, in order to get more footage of Robert Redford as Gatsby, the director would show much more of Gatsby in the film than is called for by the story. Fortunately, Redford as Gatsby is not overused; Gatsby is kept mysteriously off-camera trapping - everyone in his spider's web of love. Redford does the impossible in making Gltsby's starched, pretentious (rightly so, I must stress) lines come to life even the famous "old sport" salute. They are lines that call for an actor who is especially sensitvie to Gatsby's quiet, enormously romantic insanity. So annoyingly boring in other films, Redford's reserve serves him well in this one. Never before has he been as good. - Jesse Colin Young /Frank Zappa/Montrose Eagles $4.44 Blue Magic $3.77 - The dainty Deity , Mia Farrow creates a Daisy who is as lovely, spoiled and careless as any Daisy could be. As she does her little "charleston" and sings to herself in private indulgence, the scene is telling and natural. She gives us a Daisy no longer capable of love alternately seeking to escape from boredom and — danger. Sam Waterston's self-refective expression peaking out over a long, pointed nose give his Nick Carraway that perspective which none of the other characters can be allowed to have a writer's perspective. If such a thing is possible, then Waterston has a witty face. Scott Wilson and Karen Black as George and Myrtle Wilson are good, but most of their scenes are so obvious, over-written and ruined by background music that they often have a hard time — being effective. Giving a controlled, smooth performance as Tom Buchanan is Bruce Dern. Dern has a way of getting inside a character, wiggling around, and giving a surprising and consistent portrayal. You read the book and you think you know Tom, then you see Dern he keeps you guessing every and he's moment as to how he'll read each line always surprising and, well, right. — — and too hot to move. In the party scenes, the camera shoots up the women's dresses revealing the unattractive underpinnings of their sockings. The and rich folks waste food, get nauseous and knock things over with careless ease. My complaint the point is here is that it becomes overdone made too well and too often. The film footage that is spent making the point is almost as extravagant and wasteful as the rich people it attacks. One nice scene of this sort shows Daisy's hand passing over the numerous copper cakepans in Gatsby's kitchen. The sheer number of pans points out how wasteful the wealthy can be. We are to feel contempt for this excess. It is no fault of the movie, but I was ready to throw in the towel when the woman behind me, in viewing this scene, turned to her neighbor. Referring to the ring on Daisy's hand, she gasped in admiration, "Would you look at the size of that diamond?" — I may be in the minority, but I think that with reference to the principle characters, almost every acting performance is either excellent or very good. Although Gatsby 's aura permeates everything, the character of Gatsby is presented in action very The weird Wolfsheim only The characters that should be played in a larger-than-life, even heavy-handed way are Mr. Gatz (Gatsby's father) and Meyer Wolfsheim (Gatsby's Jewish business partner who fixed the 1919 World Series). These characters magically represent the conflicting traditions that created and nutured Gatsby. The actor who played Mr. Gatz (1,000 lashes for missing his name) brings to the role a quirky, and refreshingly mid-Western portrayal of the character as a humble man who takes a sad pride in his rich son. Howard Da Silva (1776) as Wolfsheim is excellent but, I thought, not quirky enough. Still, he is so damned natural, it's hard to fault him. Rounding out the principle cast is Lois Chiles as Jordon Baker. Mechanical where she should be bored, empty where she should be shallow, Chiles' Jordon is the only pedestrian characterization I saw in the film. The Great Gatsby is now playing at the Holiday Theater. When the movie is good, it is like hearing nice people discuss a good book; when it's bad it's like hearing that same book misjudged by stupid people.

Si-garland Express starring Goldie Hawn and Ben Johnson, is also a true story. And like Walking Tall, it involves simple people who seek only what is rightfully theirs. Back in 1969, two people in Texas, Clovis and Eugene Pomplin, set out to get back their two-year-old baby, who had been legally taken away from its mother. Clovis was serving a one-year sentence for some petty crime. He had four months to go when his wife came to the prison and helped him to escape. Comical would be the best description of the first third of the flick. Running out of prison, stealing an elderly couple's car that only did twenty-five miles per hour in the straightaways, and robbing green stamps to buy things for the little baby when they got him back all this took up a good hour and twenty minutes. — Acton speechless There is no acting, really, in that first third of the film. Director Steven Spielberg, who just happens to be Ms. Hawn's latest boyfriend, is content with zipping here and dashing there, using music and scenery as his ploy, it was a sad mistake.

Maybe know what Woodward 01 better for such a morbid and pitiful role. Missing: good script Ben Johnson, who has always been a great actor, plays the captain of the police department that is purssuing the Pomplins. With what he is given, Johnson is good. But the movie as a whole is very shallow; as a result, Johnson almost drowns in the non-existence of a good script. Probably the finest performance is given by Michael Sacks, who plays Clovis Pomplin. Clovis is not well-educated, but he wants to be a good man to himself and to his wife. His wife overpowers him at times, and he listens to her, for she is all that he's got. With a little script to back ■him up. Sacks does an excellent job. He is the only member in the cast who managed to save his role from obscurity. The movie is truel Let us not challenge its validity. But certain parts of the film seem just a little bit out of proportion. Like the entire state of Texas not being able to capture the two fugitives, even though they held a policeman hostage? Or Clovis literally walking out of prison and into a stranger's cat with no difficulty at all? These are minor points, true. But I have a strange feeling that people today are under the impression that if a moyie or story is true, then it'*got to be great. Sugarland Express is a good movie, not a great one. It tells a story and that's all. or brillant No character studies performances are given in this movie. What makes the movie good is the story itself which seems a bit incredible, but "they said it was true." Sugarland Express, unlike Walking Tall does not stir up one's emotions. After seeing the tatter, one may want to take a club and go out to rid society of its bad element.

Oh God, wily have you forsaken us? We have sinned, yes it was fun, but God, the terrible plagues that you have inflicted upon our weary brows is too terrible a punishment for such petty offenses. Tis April, a month that should be filled with laughter, birds, flowers, oh yeah, bees too. Yet in your wrath, you have seen fit to fill the sky with darkness, chill our bones, and depress our already weary spirits. Surely you must have some mercy upon our souls, anything is better than winter throughout the entire school year. In your wrath at our sins, you have sent powerful columns of wind against our western and southern neighbors; destroying their homes and sowing grief and sorrow. Tis true that Ohio and its neighboring states went heavily for Nixon in 1972;yea, who was to know that he was your arch-enemy Satan in disguise? Thus in your anger, you have sent snow, cold, and winds against your faithful but erring subjects what is next in your plan of retribution? — You have, in your farsighted and merciful manner, created shortages in foodstuffs and fuel, erased tapes and documents, created high prices, and overseen the usual Wars and inhumanities this year. Yea, you promised some of your children that through your scapegoat, that poor little Jewish carpenter, they could screw around and all of the sins would be erased by the shnook’s death. God, we believed you; we whored, murdered, raped, pillaged, lied, stole and committed unnatural acts, knowing that we had a line of credit from that Jewish jerk. God, is that you? Holy shit, it’s a talking tuna fish sandwich! Wow man, that’s an outrageous disguise; you sure you can’t get arrested for impersonating a Food Service tuna sandwich? Come on, cut the Biblical crap, tracing me back from the “son of so-and-so and the daughter of what’s-her-facc,” and get down to God business. Why the hell are we going through all of these plagues? The Jews of America don't want to be set free from bondage, so drop all of this “Let my people go” jazz. “Son, I as chairman of the board of the National Soul Investing Service, representing over billions of happily invested souls, my board of trustees and myself have decided that the line of credit established by one Jesus Christ in the name of the people of the World has been overdrawn by excessive use and must be replenished. No doubt that it was a beautiful act to sacrifice oneself for humanity, and then have to come back (like Huck and Tom) to see the dreadful effects upon your loved ones. It is true that because of this act, we established open credit for the human race in order to cover the outrageous actions that one human can perpetrate upon another, especially in the name of God. But enough is enough!” Oh God, will we forever be burdened with constant winter, Watergate, high prices, war, famine, and bad breath? What can we do to open a new line of credit so we can go back to our cruel and heartless manners, while enjoying the benefits of your blessings? Think of all those people who go to church, unburden their sins upon the back of Jesus who might have to rely upon themselves, rather than an all-purpose that soaks up sin. Think of the shock when people can’t unload their sins, and must carry them around as personal property until they return to the Earth! It’s unfair to assume that people should be responsible for their own sins without confession, or absolution, or J.C. (no, stupid, not Johnny Carson) to assume their sins. “Son, if you wish to remove these plagues that I have cast upon humanity, you must give up your life upon a cross and by this act absolve all of your fellow human beings from their sins.” God, as willing as I am to accept divinity, I feel that it is incumbant upon me to point out that utilizing another Christ to absolve humanity’s sins will not solve the problem of responsibility for one’s acts. While the Jewish people use the same device on Yom Kippur in order to cast away their sins, both Christians and Jews are abnegating any role by utilizing rituals to clear a conscience. Christ could die a thousand times and the sins of mankind will still rest upon those whom acted without care for their fellow men and women. The device of a Christ is only a sophisticated version of the pagan human sacrifice, which was used to appease the Gods for the acts committed during the previous year. This weekend, as you pray to_ your savior remember the sins of humanity rest upon our brow not upon a panecea which eases everyones — — — responsibility. Happy holidays.

Six years ago, at M.I.T. in Boston, we built the first Tech Hifi. Before then we couldn’t find a place where we could shop for high-fidelity components with confidence and pleasure. Now we think we’ve got something different to offer. We hire sales people who are deeply involved in hifi as a hobby. We carry more than a hundred name brands, so you get what you want to buy, not what we need to sell. We’re equipped to set up an A vs. B listening test on any two components you care to name, always. And, because of our huge stock and turnover, we can offer prices and customer protection policies that other stores are unable to match. Join us in celebrating our Grand Opening and see for yourself. Remember, forty stores ago we had the same problem as you. system 649 $ m Tech Hifi’s slogan is “Quality Components at the Right Price”. As far as we’re concerned, that’s what it’s all about.

Southpaw John Roach, ace of the LIU pitching staff, will probably draw the mound assignment against Buffalo, as Fran Hlrschy, who was to have paced the Blackbird staff, is out of action. “We’re not getting the hitting that we got last year,” remarked LIU sports information director Bob Gesslein. “We’ve only played one game since our Florida trip, and that’s hurt us." LIU, like the Bulls, saw two of their hitters (centerfield Tony Jonas and infielder Bob Daniels) sign with professional clubs last spring. The Bulls must defeat LIU and St. John’s in order to take a giant step toward earning a playoff berth this spring.

Mark Cohen also added that the boat had turned somewhat at the start of the race. This probably was due to uneven timing of the strength on different sides of the boat. Uhl said that he may switch men around in the varsity boat to even off the stroke.

Boyer has rejected a “quota system” for tenured faculty, but asked the various SUNY campuses to re-evaluate their tenure-granting policies. A quota system places a ceiling on the percentage of faculty members who can receive tenure in a particular department. The tenure quota system just introduced by the City University of New York (CUNY), where no faculty member, no matter how qualified, can be granted tenure in a department where fifty per cent of the faculty are tenured, has drawn bitter criticism and fed the flames of the tenure controversy Although a large percentage of tenured faculty in a department “may be educationally harmful, it also seems clear that an artificially imposed ceiling cannot be defended,” Dr. Boyer asserted. Such a ceiling on tenure would disregard “inter-departmental and inter-campus differences and may discriminate against unusually gifted nontenured faculty, including women and-minority group members as they become available for employment in large numbers,” Dr. Boyer explained. Be more critical Chancellor Boyer requested that each university be more critical in its granting of tenure to faculty members. Tenure must be extended only to “those who have demonstrated the highest competence and whose future performance can be reasonably expected to be professionally excellent.” He expressed fears that during these times when enrollments in the nation’s colleges and universities have reached a plateau, most of the faculty in many departments will eventually become tenured. A high percentage of tenured faculty in a given department doesn’t necessarily mean that the education of students will be impaired, commented Gil Moore, chairman of the Faculty-Senate. A department with a large amount of tenured teachers doesn’t necessarily have-to be sluggish in educational advancement, he believes: “It would depend upon the individual department and as to how well it could be on the cutting edge of new developments.” But if changes in a particular field were so radical that it required an influx of younger people to simply keep pace, then a high percentage of tenured faculty could pose a threat. In such a situation, however, the University should share some responsibility in the education of faculty members so they don’t fall behind in their field. Dr. Moore said. Similarly. Chancellor Boyer has suggested a program which would prepare faculty members in departments CWPOK^r where student enrollment has declined for reassignment to other, related academic fields. analysis Tenure crunch’ The question of tenure quotas has become a very real problem across the SUNY system. Enrollment on many campuses has levelled off, and as more and more professors become eligible for tenure and fewer and fewer positions are needed, a “tenure crunch” has evolved. Enrollments at this University have not decreased and no such “tenure crunch” has developed here, reported Bernard Gelbaum, vice president for Academic Affairs. This University’s selection of professors for tenure already consists of a “careful review which is carried out in ways to give tenure to only those faculty members who unquestionably deserve it,” Dr. Gelbaum said. Dr. Boyer wants each SUNY campus to clarify its criteria and procedure for making tenure decisions. He Dr. Boyer suggested alleviate future tenure retirement age could be suggested, and the time of its current and projected level of staffing and estimate the relationship between tenured and nontenured faculty during the six-year period between 1974 and 1980. other measures which might problems. The mandatory reduced from 70 to 65, -he period after which tenure is Clifton Yearly, chairman of the History Department at the State University of Buffalo, opposed the idea of lowering mandatory retirement age. “It is possible for a man at the age of 6S or 70 to still be in his prime academically," he explained. Instead, tenured and non-tenured faculty alike should be reviewed periodically to see if they still are performing at a high level of excellence. Dr. Yearly suggested, in terms of teaching effectiveness, overall scholarship and administrative duties. A mandatory quota system doesn’t necessarily have to be wants each State university and 2— Day Care Sym\ Fighting for increased aid Dene Dube Staff Writer Spectrum “Proper formation of the young of one generation will eliminate the necessity of reforming adults of the next generation,” said professor of Psychology Norman Solkoff, citing a quote from Jean Oberlin, which reflected the ideology behind the Early Childhood Day Care Symposium held last Saturday. Celebrating the “Week of the Young Child,” the second annual symposium was sponsored by the UB Day Care Center and the Early Childhood Education Council of Western New York. Across the country, day care for young children has been suffering from a lack of funds since Congress placed a ceiling on Federal day care funds last year. The Child Development Act, which would have opened new programs and allocated more money to day care, was vetoed by President Nixon in 1971. “So little money is spent on children and the development of their minds in this country,” asserted Mary Yaeger, Public Relations person for the UB Day Care Center. She invited sever?! local legislators, hoping to persuade them to vote for more allocations. Sexist reading material Representing the Women’s Action Alliance, Carol Shapiro and Jane Galvin-Lewis presented a slide show depicting sexism in readers used in the younger grades. Surveying the 150 publishing companies of the readers, almost all the stories depicted the mother as a housekeeper. Ms. Lewis explained: “We do not believe there is anything wrong with being a housekeeper. In fact, in many cases, we feel it is an underrated job. However, we feel that the job should be a choice, and not an obligation.” Absurdity A graduate of this University, Ms. Shapiro noted “how absurd it is that children who attend day care centers because both their parents arc working arc educated with materials that stress a mother as someone who stays home to clean and cook. These children begin to feel that there is something wrong with them because their worlds do not correspond to those in the readers.” Ms. LeWis pointed out the readers never show a one-parent family, or a family with a grandparent living in the home. She termed the few pictures showing racial integration inadequate. They merely place a black child in the background “as if he just came over to do his homework while the white family is engaged in some other interaction,” she explained. Ms. Shapiro compared some 1965 Children’s readers with 1972 revisions. Clothing and hairstyles have been updated, but social roles have not been altered. She would like to see readers show all kinds of families, mothers as they really are, and boys and girls playing with each other. She complained that many readers portray girls as “tattletales or someone who dreams and stares out window*;.” Boys arc shown as adventurous and full of fun. Non-sexist toys Ms. Shapiro and Ms. Lewis demonstrated a collection of toys they designed as learning materials for a non-sexist education. These included block figures oe men and women in career uniforms, such as doctors and mail carriers; a black, male doll, and jigsaw puzzles made from photographs instead of the usual artwork. Ms. Shapiro said drawings showed a distortion while photography enabled the child to develop a realistic model his world. Asked whether the male doll 'had genitals, Ms. Shapiro said such dolls usually cost about thirty dollars. “You have to pay for a penis,” she added. \ Replacement Many conference participants expressed —continued on pag* 2— �‘Quota system’ rejected... 1 -* ,uo ““ * —continued from • ' / j'\ " v has become commonplace over the issue of the axing o certain professors. Chancellor Boyer recognizes the need for a he tenure balance” in a time of plateaued growth in h statement. SUNY vice Chancellor for University A fairs, Clifton Thome, thinks that tenured positions will open up in the next decade anyway. Besides the campuses that are still expanding, SUNY expects an increase m th enrollments of students over the age of 30. Quotas unlikely here Chancellor Boyer seems to be trying to hedge away from a quota system like the one which exists in the City University of New York system. Only fifty per cent of faculty in a department may receive tenure, and no matter how qualified a faculty member might be, tenure cannot be granted if that would exceed the prescribed quota. The Administration feels that because enrollments at this University are increasing, it is unlikely that a mandatory quota system will be installed here, but there seems to be some question on other SUNY campuses. At the State University at Albany, the plight of qualified and popular professors who have been forced to leave has Job security sought But Dr. Thorne predicted an eventual increase in the number of controversial tenure cases. “Writing a statement doesn’t change the problems,” he said, “but hopefully this statement will take care of a large portion of the problem.” Predictions on enrollments and the expansion of the University as a whole are too early to make, but he agrees with Chancellor Boyer that tenure will never be abandoned in the SUNY system. He added: “There must be job security. The steelworkers and teachers have it. Why not University professors?” SUNY has closely examined an experiment tried at Union College. The small, Schenectady college had several well-qualified professors with Ivy League degrees and departments, he explained. f 9V applying for tenure. excellent teacher ratings who were Instead, Union gave them five-year renewable contract extensions. But instructors felt they had “little academic hanging over their freedom with renewal of their contract heads." Dr. Thome said that this plan was never seriously considered. The plan was labelled by the American Association of University Professors as the “first step toward complete abolition of tenure. If ten people in a department at this University apply for tenure, all ten could conceivably get it if they were qualified, explained President Robert. Ketter. He continued: “We have some departments that are as high as 80% tenured, but most of them run something around 35 to 50% tenured. We keep an eye on this. There are no guidelines, except the Carnegie Commission report that came out that said: Once you pass the 50% point, you’d better start looking very carefully at the qualifications of the people coming forward. Your future rests on the young guys starting out, and you don t want to make it impossible to bring in a young man.” The State University of New York does not yet seem ready to adopt a plan like the one at Union College, but with the general decrease in student enrollments and the increase in the number of faculty eligible for tenure, SUNY may one day become caught in an inescapable vise. ...... Lawlerfiring: more protests 1“ ’ £- tSZ Without questioning whether this silent system was right or wrong, Dr. Yearly said that if the Administration feels there are too many tenured faculty in a particular department, then fewer professors will be granted tenure in that department. At this University, there isn’t any need to make a special provision to train professors to move to other departments if reduced enrollments in their department necessitated such an action. Dr. Yearly said, Professors who want to can already switch to related ptgi ‘ ' Grad School deadline early '* *n‘* r« V ' - Commencement date of May Due to the 19,> 1974, the deadline dale of the Graduate School for completing degree requirements for the spring semester will be May 1, 1974.

Discussing learning by infants. Dr. Solkoff astounded the audience with data showing that girl infants exceed boys in certain learning tasks; girls respond better to novel stimuli; habituate better at three days of life; and are able to focus on visual stimuli more maturely. “And black babies —continued from exceeded white babies on motor, habituation and most tasks,” Dr. Solkoff said, adding: “{Geneticist Arthur] Jensen failed in his genetic theory because he failed to consider the intra-uterine environment.” Dr. Solkoff stressed that infants are competent organisms, taking in information, processing it, and formulating models of their worlds. “We must provide stimulation as early as possible,” he said. ‘The failure of Head Start and Early Push [early education programs] is that they wait too long to present stimulation and enrichment.” Asked at what age he felt these intervention programs should begin, he said programs in Boston have begun taking children at age one. However, Dr. Solkoff pointed out that where mother and infant are deprived of attachment too early, there is a higher tendency for the mother to “batter” the child later on. Discussing the mother-infant attachment beginning almost at birth, Dr. Solkoff said: “Not only does the mother affect the infant, but the infant’s behavior affects the way the mother acts toward the infant, thereby controlling his environment at this early age.” In a panel discussion with University District Councilman Bill Price and representatives from the offices of Ogden Reid, Arthur Eve, and the National ■■ BBM ■■ ■■■■■■■■■■■■ COUPON ■ ■■e*™*™**™***** MARVINOS PIZZA and SUBS !

Th Fri 2- 4 °' �Alternative schools: opening minds to new, sane concepts Editor’s note: The following wta submitted by Leslie Medine of CAC, a participant in the Alternative Education Committee. The Alternative Education Committee developed from a desire on our part to insure the existence of viable alternative forms of education. As “products” and students of the present educational institutions (public, private and parochial), we see schools far too often as the very organizations that serve to stifle a child’s imagination, curiosity and desire to know and master his or her environment.We fed that schools, as the vehicles of socialization and socio-economic tracking in our society, all too frequently produce angry, frustrated, lonely children/adults who have been denied self-actualization and the development of feelings of self-worth. We believe that other forms of education need to be developed to offer alternatives to the present structure. The Committee was formed in mid-November in response to the interest shown after Jonathan Kozol’s speech at this University. As part of the Community Action Corps (CAC), we developed a working nucleus of 10 community people; graduate students from the Education Administration and Elementary Education Departments, undergraduates, a public school substitute teacher, a high school student, and a teacher from one of the local alternative schools. We have relied heavily on outside resource people who have been able to aid our efforts. In answer to the alternative school’s need for money and resources, we felt that schools .all owr the our energies cohid best be directed toward know What w<' are doing here in Buffalo struggling to survive in a threatening and to find out what’s going on in other antagonistic environment. We spent the cities. There also seems to be a need for next four months gathering information, teachers, parents and kids to share visiting the schools, speaking with parents educational resources and materials. For and teachers and finally organizing a structure in which representatives from the alternative schools could come together to work collectively for the benefit of their students. The school representatives have already assumed total responsibility for developing structures and bylaws so that our role in the coalition is now one of acting as facilitators and resource aides. Because our role in the coalition has changed, we have now started several other projects. We are developing a library of books, magazines and materials dealing with alternatives in education. A list of non-sexist, non-racist and non-agist childrens’ books is being compiled. We are going to “broaden our horizons” by writing to newsletters, magazines and this purpose, we would like to start developing a resource center in Buffalo, It is unfortunate but not accidental that people in power would like to keep us divided and thinking that there are no strong movements towards radical change in this country. It is time we realize that there are thousands of people with various skills working desperately in the field of education to find some sort of sanity and clarity for their children and themselves, The way we see it, the only way well make it is to wori( together. Therefore, we’re reaching out to you with our ideas and open minds.

He suggested that the Student Association (SA) provide this entertainment, although Student Affairs coordinator Howie Schapiro added that SA would not pay for it. Mr. Phillips proposed a $.50 admission charge of to the cost cover entertainment. “Admission will be restricted to only those students who current possess a valid any identification from he university,” explained. However, he said, one guest would be allowed per ID card. Cliff Palefsky, former Student Rights coordinator, raised an important question: he informed the committee that a large number of freshemn are legally under age to be served liquor.

More than 50 impeachments were brought to trial in England (where American law has its roots) between the years 1621 and 1787, when the framers of our Constitution began their work. We have had 12 impeachments against public officials, including the one against President Andrew Johnson. Yet despite this long history, few understand the impeachment process. Under the Constitution, the House of Representatives votes to “impeach” or indict a Federal official on charges, and serves as the prosecutor. The Senate sits as the jury. The law states; “The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other High Crimes and Misdemeanors.” (Article 2; Sec. 4). The sole penalty is removal from office and disqualification from holding any The movement to impeach President Richard Nixon is gaining national momentum. Numerous organizations 1 representing millions of- Americans, as well as various members in the House of Representatives, have been pressing for impeachment. The largest impeachment organization, the National Campaign to Impeach Nixon, comprised of labor, student, antiwar, women, civil rights, professional and leftist groups, spanning 150 cities and 33 states, is sponsoring a “March to Impeach Nixon” in Washington, D.C. on April 27. The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), which called for the impeachment of Mr. Nixon last October 4, describes the long American tradition of impeachment in a S6-page booklet entitled Why President Richard Nixon Should Be Impeached. During our early colonial days, nearly every state other federal office. constitution provided for the impeachment of public officials, for “mal-administration, corruption... Impeachment for ‘infamy’ misconduct, misdeameanor or default.” Mitchell Franklin, professor at the State University of Buffalo Law School and internationally-known jurist, Straggle against tyranny argues that public officials can be impeached merely by On July 20, 1787, delegates to the Constitutional being “infamous,” a concept based upon Roman law Convention overwhelmingly agreed that the Chief which removes a public official who has lost the respect Executive could be removed by impeachment. and faith of the people.

The ACLU urges people to write their Representative to urge impeachment, to urge their organizations to take a public stand on impeachment, and to help organize groups for impeachment. The National Campaign to Impeach Nixon is calling on people to gather at Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool at 11 a.m., April 26, in Washington, D.C., to march Capitol for a rally. Locally, rides, car pools and possibly buses will be organized to go to Washington. The campaign includes such individuals as Representatives Ron Dellums of California and Bella Abzug of New York, Jane Fonda, Benjamin Spock, Pete Seeger, Tom Hayden and Ramsey Clark, as well as dozens of organizations across the country.

This conflict is epitomized in behavior modification, which utilizes psychological techniques of learning and reinforcement to shape desired behavior. Behavior modifiers feel they can point to a track record of success with patients in mental hospitals, schools and prisons who failed to respond to more traditional kinds of therapy. Raising ethical considerations, however, are the courts which have attempted to define the rights of institutionalized patients and may be on a collision course with the more pragmatic modifiers and others who dislike ‘control’ in any form. Some, however, disagree that science and ethics are necessarily locked in a deadly struggle. “Technology is value-neutral: it’s the goals it’s used for,” says John Lick, professor of Psychology at the State University of Buffalo. He feels that any attempt to influence human behavior through psychological means, such as through traditional psychotherapy, is behavior modification in the broad sense. — — Electric potty chair Behavior modification has many critics in and out of psychology. Some envision its techniques leading to a Big Brother society, claiming that it will be used by government and institutional leaders to discourage dissent, achieve conformity and perpetuate the status quo. Others dislike its methods because they feel it represents coercion; forcing the patient, who is often a captive audience, whether in a prison, mental hospital or classroom, to ‘Value-neutral’ them his behavior. Behavior mod has been defined as change lives, of motivate “It can raise the quality their someone else do your bidding,” explains David everyone "making it’s not a for panacea toward dignity although Lick Rorvik the January 1974 issue ofIntellectualDigest. He in mental added. hospital,’’ Dr. and his brother in a There’s no doubt of the token ecoiiomy’s effectiveness “in complains that behavior modification is becoming big a modern host of behaviors,” said Dr. O’Leary. “With kids, business, as conditioning theories proliferate for everything it’s applicable in from frigidity to impotence to alcoholism to nervous tics. the academic world, adults, psychotics He added; ‘There is even an electric potty chair for accelerated toilet four-year-olds geriatrics.” from to populations ‘There’s no doubt it can change behavior it’s effective in training,” he explains. "And a typical treatment for a man who has, let us say, an ‘unnatural’ attraction to feces is to almost all cases.” Dr. Lick admitted that a token, economy can be show him slides of feces while shocking the hell out of misused “to teach people ethically obnoxious behavior; him. Crude, but supposedly effective, and it doesn’t you can reinforce people to spit on black people.” He require any messy probing of the psyche.” reinforcers for desired behavior, such as making beds. brushing teeth, performing work, etc. These points may be exchanged for primary reinforcers: snacks, movies, extra privileges. “A token economy can be very useful for patients who have suffered the noxious effects of the hospital environment those who don’t comb their hair, and just don’t care,” said Dr. Lick. - - — - Results, not understanding There is no evidence that these methods “are either lasting or of real benefit,” Mr. Rorvik argues, explaining that many who are arbitrarily classified as ‘problem’ ildren are treated with mind- modifying drugs “that Self-determination stressed Changing behavior the client doesn’t want changed. Dr. Lick therefore believes, is a problem in all areas of psychology, education, child-rearing and elsewhere. “I personally place strong emphasis on the individual’s self-determination, as long as his pursuit of goals doesn’t grossly inhibit the behavior of other people;" he said. Criticisms of behavior modification “are as applicable to any other means of treatment where involuntary commitment is concerned,” believes K. Daniel O’Leary, noted behavioral psychologist at the State University at Stony Brook. In many ways, behavior modification is not new. Ordinary people have been using behavior-shaping techniques for centuries, often without realizing it. When a husband grows silent or uncommunicative whenever his wife brings up a certain topic he dislikes, he has utilized negative reinforcement to force her to change her behavior. Gold stare to tokens I know a four-year-old boy who had a little problem: he would often wet his bed during the night. To remedy this delicate dilemma, his mother gave him a gold star for every morning his bed was dry. If he wet it during the night, no gold star. When he had accumulated 20 gold stats (no easy feat), he could trade them in for a toy. With this incentive, he soon mastered his problem. But the gold stars were really tokens to reinforce a desired behavior. Psychologists have taken this crude age-old system of mothers and teachers and have refined and documented it into a science of modifying behavior. Token economies, first devised in mental hospitals, are the classic prototype of behavior modification. In this framework, patients receive tokens or points as secondary Ethics of control emphasized his value-neutral approach: “A token economy is a technology for controlling behavior; it has little to say about the kinds of behavior controlled or the direction encouraged.” Noting that with severely regressed patients, a token economy is “the only motivational system with any success,” Dr. Lick believes the mental patient should have some input. ‘The vast majority of clients wants to achieve the goals. Behavior modification only raises ethical questions when someone objects,” he said. Critics have zeroed in on behavior mod, he feels, while ethical questions arise “whenever you exert control without the consent of the controllee. It’s a 2000-year-old question. Mental patients were drugged for years, put in strait-jackets, locked up: these weren’t behavioral control?” — . . The difficulty of drawing a fine line between effective techniques and morality arises in any social institution where the members are subject to control by “the authorities.” An obvious example is compulsory education. Dr. Lick maintains that our educational system has always been based on behavioral control. Dr. O’Leary agreed: “People don’t realize: the fact that thekids are in school, and have to be there, means there is control.” “Educators traditionally dictate what children should learn, how they should behave without input from the kids,” said Dr. Lick. He stressed that input from children is possible, and a more pleasant atmosphere is achieved “by setting up the learning environment so kids are rewarded for appropriate behavior, not punished for inappropriate behavior.” - Punishment only when necessary Is using punishment against confined patients ethically wrong? Dr, O’Leary responded: “If there’s a means of prompting good behavior through positive reinforcement, fine. But when something like strong aggression gets in the way...there just aren’t enough potent things around the get someone not to be aggressive or self-destructive.” When a patient comes into the hospital with a high frequency of aggression or self-destructiveness, such as hitting his head against the wall, “negative reinforcement may be the only way to get him to stop,” said Dr. O’Leary. Dr. Lick also stresses positive reinforcements, feeling punishment is only justified if there’s no other way to reach the goal and the danger of continuing the behavior is great: “Who would disagree that you should punish your child so he won’t run across the street without looking?” While most token economies emphasize “rewarding positive behavior exchanging tokens for things,” Dr. O’Leary explained, more are now utilizing response-cost: ‘Taking away tokens a patient earned if he assaults another patient or staff member.” It was felt there were Rage six The Spectrum Wednesday, 10 April 1974 dangers of this p&tBeifig animosity in the patient, but recent evidence points to the contrary. “A heavy emphasis on positive reinforcement with some degree of response-cost seems to be most effectiveDr. O’Leary concluded. Petrified midgets? “What kind of behavior shall the teacher reinforce?” becomes the educational version of the mental dilemma. a hospital’s Reinforcing law-and-order atmosphere and conformity may yield petrified midgets. Dr. lick believes, while reinforcing creative responses might be more productive. ‘There’s no doubt a token economy can be misused to foster conformity,” agreed Dr. O’Leary. Teachers, parents, students and society should all have input, believes Dr. Lick: “The best antidote to misuse is to make everyone aware that control is involved in education, and to solicit input from all interested parties.” “The question of who’s to decide? must be addressed not only by teachers and school officials, but by more parents as well,” said Dr. O’Leary. “These value judgments come into very bold perspective with behavior modification.” It’s been clearly shown that behavior modification has great promise for the education of retarded and emotionally disturbed children, Dr. O’Leary explained. But he feels “one avenue that hasn’t been explored as well as it might be” is using behavior intervention in the actual classroom of the normal child. This could prevent many “normal” problems from poor study habits to self-discipline: “it could influence, for example, sex roles that tend to limit the freedom of young girls. One of the most important areas is the use of self-control procedures: teaching someone to record and evaluate his own behavior,” Dr, O’Leary explained. the educational possibilities, Certainly with particularly younger children, are infinite. But one can almost bricd for charges of coercion and the familiar, anti4Mhavi&ist complaint; “But who will �setting than a doctor’s office. Unlike psychoanalysts, who use a battery of techniques but seldom refer to them as technology, applied behavior analysts spend a great deal of time developing, packaging, disseminating and talking about behavioral technology. They have not given up experimentation, but their laboratory is the real world; they still treat individual problems, but they attempt to do it on an increasingly massive scale; and their technology, usable to a large extent by just about anybody, permits them to emphasize prevention rather than cure. In short, they are becoming behavior engineers.” challenge make them more tractable and thus the status quo.-” He continues: “They [behavior modifiers] are not out to change the world but to make man adjust to it; they seek results, not understanding. What the world needs now in the service of ‘curing’ its deviant and miserable masses, proclaim the new psychotechnologists, is not more prison reform, urban renewal and nude group gropes, but a few well-placed kilovolts in the collective brain.” The first token economy was pioneered in the by Teodoro Ayllon and Nathan H. Azrin, who devised a model suitable for clinical work with large groups of disturbed persons as well as with individuals. Their token system is described by Kenneth Goodall in the November 1972 issue of Psychology Today. ‘The engineering feat showed that long-hospitalized and idle pgychotics, when they were properly reinforced, could learn how to care for themselves, do housekeeping chores, and even hold down jobs around the hospital. The trick was to learn which reinforcers worked with which persons one person might spend tokens to sit in a favorite chair, and to find an another to attend religious services the rewards.” effective way to deliver — — - - Ratandpigeon days Like most techniques used by human behavior controllers, the token economy had its origins in animal experiments. It is based on the principle of operant conditioning devised by behaviorist B. F. Skinner: “If a tasty bit of food falls into a Skinner box after a pigeon pecks a button or a rat presses a bar, the pigeon or rat is likely to peck or press again,” writes Dr. Goodall. Skinner has moved from the rat-and-pigeon days to concepts of human behavioral engineering, such as described in Beyond Freedom and Dignity and his visionary society Walden Two. Meanwhile, a new generation of behaviorists, such as Dr. Azrin, a graduate student of Skinner’s at Harvard, have successfully developed behavior modification by applying Skinnerian principles of operant conditioning to humans.Dr. Goodall calls these men the “post-Skinnerians.” He writes: “Its milieu more closely resembles an educational in compulsory classroom do the controlling?” Dr. Goodall grapples with this issue classroom behavior as “getting out of seat, standing up, walking around, running tapping feet, rattling paper, carrying on a conversation with another child, crying, singing, whistling, laughing, turning head or body toward another person, showing objects to another child, and looking at another child.” In contrast, the “model” child, wrote Drs. Winett and Winkler “stays glued to his seat and desk all day, continually l<pks at his teachar or at his text/workbook, does not talk to or In fact look at other children, does not talk unless asked to by the teacher, hopefully does not laugh or sing (or at the wrong time), and assuredly passes silently in the halls.” Maintaining that learning may take place more effectively if “accompanied by singing and laughing and whistling,” and that “a quiet, controlled docile classroom may not only be unnecessary but destructive,” Drs. Winett and Winkler called for “extensive dialogues in our communities on just what kinds of human beings we want our children to grow up to be. Such dialogues would determine what values and behavior we want our schools to transmit and reward.” Schools are a natural testing ground for learning techniques, explained Dr. Goodall, and the combined willingness of funding agencies and school administrators to allow experimentation has led most applied behavior analysts to work there. At the Bryant Elementary School in Kansas City, Kansas, teachers utilize a model conceived by R. Vance Hall, a pioneer developer of behavior-shaping technology for use in public schools. Dr. Goodall outlines the strategy: “One, they select target behaviors that need changing, such as poor attendance, tardiness, or low academic performance; “Two, they keep baseline records to find out how often the unwanted behaviors occur; “Three, they set up experimental conditions during which they record each ‘correct’ behavior and reinforce it with praise (a smile for the student, for example, or a phone call to the parent), with a token (a smiling-face sticker, perhaps, that will buy a lollipop or a crayon) or with the opportunity to do something enjoyable (go to a ball game or work in the school lunchroom, for instance); “Four, they return to baseline conditions (withdrawing the rewards) to find out whether reinforcement was instrumental in increasing correct behavior; and “Finally, they reinstitute the conditions that were successful.” ... “Even children with little love for reading will do a lot of it if their reward to a bunch of tokens that they can trade in later for cookies, pieces of cake, toys or M&Ms. That such a system amounted to bribing a child for doing something he ought to get into the habit of doing was a common charge. It usually came from authoritarian types who were double standard. blind to their own Behavior-therapist Israel Goldiamond once made this comeback: ‘If they stopped paying me for coming to work, this nice ingrained habit I have might quickly vanish.’ The charge is heard less often these days.” Criticizing the behavior modification credo in the classroom as “be still, be quiet, be docile,” Richard A. Winett and Robin C. Winkler of the State University at Stony Brook claim that “inappropriate behavior has been Sonsistently defined as behavior that interferes with quiet and stillness.” They argue - that behavior modifiers are “instruments of the status quo, unquestioning servants of a system which thrives on a petty reign of ‘law and Irder’ to the apparent detriment of the educational process itself.” *Sit still, be quiet’ Becker They quote a 1968 study and Armstrong which classifiq^tvHiWPPfopnate” Society involves control “People don’t seem to realize that all our institutions family, school, church do control behavior,” said Dr. O’Leary. “They influence it in fairly important ways. Like it or not, behavior is controlled; behavior modification documents these influences in fairly specific way.” The director of a behavior modification clinic for children at the State University at Stony Brook, Lr. O’Leary feels the public is basically uninformed about these issues. Many entertain stereotypes, “like Clockwork Orange or Skinner’s Beyond Freedom and Dignity. Some parents come in and ask; ‘How are you going to condition my kid?’ They don’t realize it’s more than just taking him and giving him an M&M.” He added: “It’s out job to be more involved in getting the information to the public.” For the deviant. Dr. O’Leary believes, the question is: How can we help them realize their full potential? For the normal, he says, the public must be told: “This is what’s happening; this is how control works; toward what end should we use that control?” Public knowledge needed Public ignorance and non-input into goals represents “the greatest danger” that behavior modification techniques will be used, asserted Dr. Lick. He suspects there will be increasing legislation restricting the directions in which behavior may be modified. While welcoming certain needed safeguards, he re-emphasized that public knowledge and multiple inputs for affected parties represents the ultimate safeguard. “One of the most desirable aspects of behavior mod is that we can determine if'procedures are having effect if they don’t work, we give up or change them,” said Dr. Lick. “Opponents have focused on the dangers of controlling behavior without consent. These are not to be minimized, but there is an enormous amount of human suffering created by undesirable behavior. Millions want changes regarding alcoholism, drug addiction, sex, fear, anxiety, sleep and delinquency. Institutional remedies have proven largely ineffective. A technology to control behavior cannot only be misused but used humanely, to help these people.” When persons exhibit ‘deviant’ behavior, writes Dr. Goodall, the failure is in the physical and social environment that determines behavior; changing the environment will change the behavior. “If treatment is necessary, the best place to do it in the home or school, not in some artificial or perhaps permanent place of confinement. And the best persons to provide the treatment are parents, teachers, friends not medicine men. Above all,” Dr. Goodall concluded, “the process of changing human lives must be evaluated continually, and it must be accountable to its consumers, the persons who are affected by it and the persons who pay for it.” ; — Wednesday, 10 April 1974 The Spectrum Page seven . . �I KDITORIAL Flexibility, not quotas lOflB h To the Editor: In reference to the recent decision not to fund "Your future rests on the young guys starting out, and all Health Care projects (i.e, The Birth Control you don't want to make it impossible to bring in a young Clinic, Pregnancy Counseling, The Medical Lab, etc.) man. " —President Robert Ketter Quotas are an ugly word. Whether the fixed numbers are in minority hiring, graduate school admissions, or job promotions, quotas imply an inflexible number of slots which will necessarily leave some out in the cold. That quotas have become a bitter controversy in an increasing number of areas is a symptom of the depressed American economy, which has made once-liberal students more law and medical school-minded, and once-progresSive faculty more cautiously job-conscious. Tight budgets, decreasing student enrollments and the subsequent need for fewer faculty positions have all conspired to heighten faculty fears about job security. While the student population at this University is still growing with the expansion to Amherst, faculty hiring is a far cry from the late 1960's, when hundreds of faculty were added in a single year. Now each instructor's job is precarious and each feels the pressure of competing against colleagues for a limited number of tenured positions. Paranoia about tenure quotas was fueled when the City University of New York recently instituted its controversial tenure quota policy, dictating that no instructor, no matter how well qualified, could be granted tenure in a department where 50% of the faculty already had tenure. This has prompted SUNY Chancellor Ernest Boyer's recent rejection of a tenure quota system, although he asked each SUNY campus to "re-evaluate" its tenure-granting policies. 1960's, tenure was granted almost During the automatically to those instructors who survived theif probation years. The result: a large number of departments ,have become "locked in" with aging faculty members who will be around for decades, precluding the possibility of hiring significant numbers of young men. In many fields, a continuing influx of young minds is needed simply to keep pace with rapidly-changing developments. And since "frozen" departments tend to stagnate and decline in quality, tenure quotas such as CUNY's have been advanced as a solution to such suspended animation. On the other hand, tenure is absolutely vital to educational quality. One, it provides needed job security for professional instructors. Two, it creates an incentive because only those clearly superior in research and (hopefully) teaching will gain tenure status, unlike other professions where mere seniority brings security. But most importantly, tenure provides academic freedom. A professor whose job is not on the line can take extreme stands on issues or publish controversial material without having to fear for his job. Unfortunately, the crushing pressure for tenure has had the opposite effect on those who have not yet attained it: they are afraid to disagree or displease their superiors because they could be risking their chance for tenure (the dwindling number of faculty teaching in the Colleges underscores the new fear of controversy). Tenure, so important for the academic freedom of those who have it, has had the opposite effect of stifling the academic freedom of those who are striving for it. Tenure quotas are unacceptable. So are departments overloaded with faculty who are locked in for life. So is lowering the mandatory retirement age, wbjph already prematurely places many men in their academic prime out to pasture. As with minority admissions in graduate schools, any policy which imposes inflexibility on decision-making is regressive and detrimental. Instead of rigid rules and percentages, what is needed is a heightened sensitivity to the fact that a department with more than one-half tenured faculty faces decades of stagnation. Such an "informal" system means that if a department gets too top-heavy with tenure, fewer instructors only those of undisputed excellence in teaching and research will be granted tenure. But this retains the flexibility of making exceptions, and the ability to award tenure to a large number of unusually talented instructors in a single year if warranted. But it means the consideration of every instructor up for tenure will be judiciously balanced against the danger of overloading a department with future i OOO.d* Our student fees with OUR money, we the undersigned feel that this action is a gross intrusion on our individual rights to have comprehensive medical care and determination of OUR money. In a recent student referendum held on this campus, we decided that Health Care was our “number one” priority for the expenditure of OUR student fees. A greater need for students to provide health services for themselves is becoming a necessity, since funds for the University Health Service (presently funded by the state), are in the process of drastically being cut. But there is an even greater issue present; that of: do we have the right to say what is to be done with OUR money, or do only a select group of men in Albany only have that right. (No taxation without representation?) If this decision is upheld, then the services (to you) of such organizations as C.A.C., Student Legal Aid Clinic, WNYPIRG, as well as the ones mentioned above and ones in the planning stage (The Student Pharmacy planned by Sub-Board) will — no longer exist. The State University Board of Trustees will be meeting within the next couple of weeks to finally decide on this matter. It is our obligation to take some kind of affirmative action to allow these services to remain in function. IT WILL BE OUR LOSS, NOT THEIRS. We hope that the students of this University as well as those on all state campuses will take time to write to the State University Board of Trustees in Albany and President Ketter expressing your feelings on this matter. Also there is a petition circulating supporting this position that is imperative for all of us to sign. This petition can be found in the CAC office (220 Norton) if you haven’t signed it yet. It is time for all of us to start to act now before we lose everything we have fought so hard for, and now take for granted David Chavis Mark Carlin Gary Schwartz Al Capuano Phyllis Putin Mitch Smilowitz Carol Block Bob Bertone Gloria Pruzan Richard Knapp Karen Kinney Steve Kochan Randy Ham Mark Waiwada > David Knight and the University Services Coalition Student rights at stake person partakes To the Editor. 1 find it difficult to understand the negative ruling regarding the use of Student mandatory fees for health care. How can health (inclusive of mental and physical well being) be so segregated from the world of the student (cultural, educational, recreational)? Health can no longer be considered a separate entity, apart from one’s life. A person’s health influences and is influenced by all activities a in. However, the issue here is more than one of definition it is one of rights. The student’s right to control the utilization and expenditures of their own funds for their own needs. While this right lies in question the students right to adequate health care is threatened! I strongly hope that the Board of Trustees will amend the mandatory fee guideline too much is at stake! - — Caren Baker Health: far-reaching issue To the Editor. I am appalled at the student apathy reflected in the lack of letters concerning the UB health service crises. Surely this is an issue of importance to us all!

The basic goal of the conference was to better inform participants in a number of the’most critical issues facing schools in the emerging'future.

Ke tierfighting negative ruling on health care John Leach “The present regulations list the permissible categories for expenditures of the compulsory student fees. I could not seriously argue that the suggested ‘health care' project fits any such use,” Mr. Leach maintained in a letter to Dr. Ketter. Mr. Leach was interpreting Dr. Relihan's legal opinion, which consisted of legalistic language open to several ways of interpretation, according to Dr. Ketter. On the issue of whether student fees could be used for health services, Dr. Relihan stated: “Health services do not fall within the explicit terms” of the mandatory fee guidelines. “However,” he added, “a liberal interpretations of the [guidelines’] words ‘other sludent services'might well include health services,” by Gary Cohn Campus Editor Acting on a legal opinion from Albany President Robert Ketter decided Friday that mandatory student fees may no longer be used for health care services, but said that he will ask the SUNY Board ofTrustees to change the fee guidelines to permit expenditures for these services. Dr. Ketter was optimistic that “pressure can be brought to bear” on the Board ofTrustees “to make themrealize the importance” of health care, but cautioned that the decision “could go either way.” The trustees meeting is slated for later this month, but until that time arrangements have been made to allow Sub-Board’s Birth Control Clinic and medical laboratory to ( continue services. Clinic continue will operating on an The Birth Control does not (which account” income-generating “revolving while the fees), student mandatory subsidies from receive and funded the by operated be medical laboratory will fee student mandatory Medical until the School University’s explained. been Ketter Dr. has resolved. issue , Kctter cites die law Dr. Ketter’s decision was announced at a meeting with student government officials Friday afternoon in which the University President cited a legal opinion from State University ofNew York (SUNY) counsel Walter Relihan and an interpretation of that opinion from University Counsel ... ‘Presidential discretion’ Dr. Relihan then indicated that if he “had to choose between the two positions, in the manner of a judge,” he would “clearly vote for a decision excluding health care as a permissable use under the resolution.” He added: “I’m only required to say that the opposite conclusion seems unconvincing, but not beyond the pale of presidential discretion.” Asked why he did not choose to exercise this “presidential discretion” and allow student fees to be used for the health care services. Dr. Ketter explained: “Dr. Relihan went so far as to indicate that should anything result from it [using student fees for health care], he will not stand behind it.” This was essentially the problem. Dr. Ketter reiterated. Mr. Leach also warned Dr, Ketter about the "financial liability of both the University and the Student Association (SA) for damages resulting from the side effects of the use of certain drugs or products which have been prescribed on an elective basis.” Planned Parenthood sued For instance, stated Mr. Leach, "a number of well-intentioned agencies, among them the local planned parenthood groups, have found themselves named as defendants in litigated cases where substantial damages were alleged to have resulted from similar elective programs." He added: “Both the University and the Student Association could be liable financially, and it might well be that the liability of this kind could completely destroy the treasury of a student association." To protect the SA from partial financial liability. Dr. Ketter has approved the expenditure of student fees fro malpractice insurance. The malpractice insurance is a “protective device,” explained Dr. Ketter. but if does not remove all financial liability from the student-run health services. He added that he was “sticking my neck way out” by approving the expenditure. The fee guidelines According to official State University guidelines, mandatory fees may be used to finance programs of cultural —continued on 3— �■ ntt 1KC election with eavy voter turnout Writer After a year of dissatisfaction with the Intcr-Residence Council (IRC).dormitory residents turned out in substantial hiimbers Wednesday and Thursday to elect Leigh Weber President. Perry Shustack was elected Executive vice president for IRCB, Inc.. Richard Cohen was elected treasurer and Perry Shuslack emerged as the new Executive vice president for IRC Businesses. Inc. (IRCB). and Jim Smith was cho-en to be the new vice president for Activities Planning. The 7-day election campaign was low-key, and in the words of one IRC Election Committee member, “characterized by many qualified candidates conducting themselves in a responsible, down to business manner.” Because the final vote was 970 out of a possible 2200, Elections Committee chairman Jess Rainer termed the election “an excellent indicator of student support and concern for the future of the Intcr-Residence Council.” It was an exciting Presidential race with Leigh Weber,. a resident of the North Campus, pitted against Jim Rose, a resident of the South Campus. Some candidates had feared that each Presidential candidate would receive all his votes from his own campus, producing a winner with no broad base of support. But Mr. Weber did well on both campuses, receiving SOI votes to Mr. Rose’s 355. Initiatives Mr. Weber has had extensive experience in IRC during the past year, especially in the areas of Busing and Food Service, and is optimistic about the year ahead. ‘This coming year IRC will take the initiative in those areas that are of concern to the dorm residents. We will be an active, not a reactive Organization, and will insure that what was in my platform becomes reality,” declared Mr. Weber after the election results were announced. As chairman of the Board and policy leader of IRCB, which operates the grocery stores, travel bureau, and refrigerator and bicycle rentals. Mr. Shustack discussed the importance of his position. “IRCB has one of'the most important functions as the division of IRC which provides services which arc so important to dorm students,” Mr. Shustack stressed at a post-election interview. He added: “I intend to get right to work, immediately revamping the dormant bicycle rentals and planning for the opening of a third store and the expansions of other IRCB services to the North Campus as soon as it is humanly possible.” Mr. Shustack anticipates a “great year” for the IRC and a good working relationship with the other elected officers even though they were from the opposition party. “We all know that we must work together in order for the IRC to realize its full potential,” explained Mr. Shustack. New Paltz students emerge victorious by Connie Hutchinson Spectrum Staff Writer A week-long student occupation of the administration building at the State University College at New Paltz ended last week when several of their demands were met and a greater student voice in educational policy was granted. “The students left in ‘good faith',” said a spokesman for an the United Front for Education Freedom. “They will return if the administration doesn’t follow up,” he added. The occupation was prompted by the student termination of New Paltz’s experimental studies program. Students were also concerned about the firing of three female faculty members and the refusal to rehire Professor Chakravaty, a 73-year-old teacher who has passed the mandatory retirement age. In addition, the students wanted a voice in determining whether faculty should receive tenure, and a role in determining educational goals on a one-to-one basis with the faculty organizing group - and administration. The sit-in was “well-organized, and the students were extremely well-behaved, anfl 1 mean this sincerely,” said Ed Shannon, director of Security on the New Paltz campus. The students had a security system within their own ranks, and because the sit-in was well under control, there was no vandalism. New Paltz Security played only an overseeing, role in the occupation and “everybody was working with a good degree of genuineness,” Mr. Shannon added. The Administration at New Paltz, headed by President Stanley K. Coffman Jr., is neither a conservative or reactionary, Mr. Shannon explained; “I would say it lies somewhere in the gray area between conservative and liberal,” Concessions The Administration’s main concerns during the sit-in were to impress upon the students that some of the problems were beyond their control, and that everyone has to learn to live with budget cuts. In a letter distributed to the 8,000 New Paltz students, Dr. Coffman agreed to support the formation of two new committees dealing with faculty tenure and educational goals. It is not likely, however, that the students would be represented on a one-to-one basis with Administration and faculty members. The Administration has already re-instated Professor Chakravaty, and Dr. Coffman also reassured the students that he supported the experimental studies program. mm mm mm \ ■■■■■■■■■■■■ coupon ■ JSU effort Kosherfo — JSU office' several years ago and No substitutes was revived at its first meeting this group is seeking space to The year. “use as is,” without expensive Ms. Aber has been trying to get “rehabilitation.” To complicate approval to use one of Ellicott’s matters, estimates vary on how many students might actually kitchen-lounge areas for the participate.

Mr. Telfer felt there was a “lack of decision” on the part of the co-op as to whether they wanted to be located on the Amherst or Main Campus.

Academic affairs vice-president Gelbaum may not have seen “as Bernard Gelbaum’s decision not to much promise in Dr. Lawler’s renew Dr. Lawler’s contract came surprise because the as a controversial philosophy professor who was a member of the Fatuity 45 arrested during the 1970 student demonstrations had received approval for reappointment from a range of — — University sectors. Philosophy department faculty, department chairman Peter Hare, the personnel committee of the Faculty ofSocial Sciences, and the acting Provost of Social Sciences, Arthur Butler were among those in favor of Dr. Lawler’s reappointment. Appeal to Ketter Dr. Lawler intends to appeal Dr. Gelbaum’s ruling under the new University guidelines which allow a faculty member denied reappointment to have an advocate argue his case. Dr. Gelbaum explained that the appeal would be made to University President Robert Ketter. However, Dr. Gelbaum refused to discuss the reasons why Dr. Lawler would not be reappointed, saying that “personnel matters are generally treated with great confidence and not discussed in the public press.” Asked ifterminating an instructor who had been recommended for reappointment by his department and Faculty was unusual, Dr. Gelbaum said that while ft was relatively infrequent, “it occurs when it has to occur.” Teaching v. research Both Dr. Butler and Dr. Hare agreed that Dr. Lawler’s teaching record is a good one, although Dr. Butler did say that Dr. Lawler was not an outstanding teacher. They have speculated that Dr. Gelbaum’s decision may be based on Dr. Lawler’s research. Questions were raised about Dr. Lawler’s “research .productivity and activity,” Dr. Hare explained. Dr. Butler added that Dr research” as did the Social Sciences personnel committee. Dr. Lawler’s book will be published in the next year or two, and he has a number of publications in the process of being completed. Dr. Lawler’s good teaching record and his research promise warranted a two-year “look-see period,” Dr. Butler concluded. Dr. Lawler reported that Dr. Gelbaum did not tell him why his contract was not being renewed. He said that Dr. Gelbaum’s decision came as a surprise because Dr. Butler had told him that he “didn’t see any problems.” Full-scale review? He said it was “highly improbable” that Dr. Gelbaum’s office had completely reviewed his work, because they only had his file for about one week and did not request additional information. Dr. Lawler said that the “usual procedure vyas to demand more and more information” about a candidate for reappointment or tenure. “Certain questions do enter into my mind about why this was done,” Dr. Lawler maintained. Those questions involve both his activities and his political philosophical point of view, he said. 1970 student During the demonstrations, Dr. Lawler was afrested as a member of the Hayes Faculty 45. At that time, William Baumer, testified against the arrested faculty members. Dr. Baumer is currently assistant vice-president for Academic Affairs. Dr. Lawler has continued to be active, fighting against possible tuition raises and working for faculty rights.

These programs must be organized for “the benefit of the campus community.” “It’s obvious that the guidelines include health care,” Student Association President Frank Jackalone said in protesting the legal opinion from Albany. Mr. Jackalone sent a letter to the Board of Trustees Friday, co-signed by the five otherUniversity student government presidents, asking for a change in the fee guidelines. “We request that consideration be given to changing or re-interpreting the mandatory student fee guidelines, permitting the expenditure of some portion of these fees to provide a wider range of student health care services,” the six student presidents wrote. Pointing out that the “present student health care program is not comprehensive enough to meet the needs of twenty-three thousand students,” the student presidents detailed the current and future student-financed health care programs. These programs include: a blood testing laboratory, a pharmacy; a dental clinic; pregnancy counseling service;a University-wide blood assurance program; a speakers program, a health insurance program; and a community ambulance service. The programs are run in conjuction with the appropriate supervision. For instance, the dental clinic would be operated in conjunction with the School of Dentistry and the blood testing laboratory in conjunction with the Department of Medical Technology. If the Board of Trustees refuse to change or re-interpret the mandatory fee guidelines to allow for student-financed health care. Dr. Ketter said he will explore alternative menhods of funding the much-needed health services. One possibility is to have the Faculty-Student Association (FSA) operate the health care services. Dr. Ketter had asked Dr. Relihan whether FSA could legally “engage in the selling of birth control devices, pharmaceutics, etc.?” Dr. Relihan replied that “nothing in the Guidelines or proposed contract would prevent the sale of birth control devices or pharmaceutics.” However, Dr. Relihan cautioned; “The provisions of the Education Law governing the licensing of pharmacies and the dispensing of birthcontrol devices must be consulted,” adding that “well probably need more more facts to advise you specifically.” Lorenzetti veto The .health care controversy arose in February existentialist philosophy,” asserted a frustrated studnet who had taken Dr. Lawler’s existentialism course, adding that Dr. Lawler was “very brillant.” —continued from page 1— when expenditures by Sub Boards Birth Control Clinic were vetoed by Anthony Lorenzetti, associate vice-president for Student Affairs. Dr. Lorenzetti’s action unleashed a flood of protests from students and Sub Board officials;raised the issue of whether student fees can be spent for health care; and prompted President Ketter to seek clarification of the fee guidelines from SUNY counsel Walter Relihan. Sub-Board Business Manager Lester Goldstein asked why the Administration waited until Sub-Board had spent approximately $12,000 on health care ventures before vetoing further expenditures and questioning the legality of using student fees for this purpose. “The Birth Control Clinic was no secret, they knew what we were doing.,.. why did they wait so In response. Dr. long?” Mr. Goldstein asked. Ketter maintained: “1 wasn’t aware Sub-Board had spent 412,000 on health until they came to me in a panic situation.” Legal aid involved? Asked if the health care issue could effect the vise of mandatory student fees for other issues such as the Legal Aid Clinic Dr. Ketter said: “I’m staying away from that question unless it’s forced on me. Health care was forced on me.” In his legal opinion, Dr. Relihan compared the health care issue to a similar situation involving intercollegiate athletics. Because the state could not afford to fund the intercollegiate athletic programs, a provision was added to the mandatory student fee guidelines enabling student fees to provide the needed funding for varsity sports. A similar provision could be added to the guidelines by the Board of Trustees to cover health care services. — - ' The issue is ripe “If this policy judgment is ripe for consideration, the trustees will need to consider whether health care, like intercollegiate athletics, should be the province of student government budget makers using the process of the mandatory student fee collections,” Dr. Relihan wrote in his legal opinion. He then added: “I think the question answers itself.” Whatever decision the Board of Trustees reach, that decision will have far-reaching implications, affecting health care programs on campuses across the state. A number of other SUNY colleges currently have student-funded health care programs and unless the fee guidelines are amended, those services may soon be dismantled. 1974 j Th« Sptctrvm Pig* �fc-r legisla completely : do so on many vote by Richard Deep Spectrum Staff Writ& the ' due Senator James State Another bill, sponsors by Hard!, Chester would State Assemblyman and McFarland opposing bilb' y.

While the campaign to abolish or regular these fees has not received widespread support by lawmakers, the passage of any one of those biHs would have adverse effect on campus athletic programs, activities, student newspapers, journals and yearbooks. The. bills span a broad spectrum in severity.

Both sides now the - Straight facts “We don’t give a sell story about how drugs are nasty and illegal,” said Mr. Bulbis. “We just give the facts and let them draw their own conclusions.” “They can’t be too scientific, but they have to be factual,” said Or. Klingman. The group gets into the scientific explanations only when the audience requests them to do so. The group’s lecture deals with several main topics. The first involves over-the-counter drugs (drugs bought in a' pharmacy from a physician’s prescription), and it stresses the importance of strictly following the doctor’s orders. When these dver-the-counter drugs are used for purposes other than the doctor intended,' this is a form of drug abuse. Another topic concerns the oft-abused “street drugs.” Although the' group will supply the statistics and pharmacological effects of drug abuse, it doesn’t feel that it mM is employing a “scare technique*' to discourage drug use. “We just want to put the facts on the table,” said Dr. Klingman. Spectrum Staff Writer local school children, their teachers, and their parents about drugs. Working with children ranging from elementary to high school age, they will speak at any school requesting their services. The five students are Howie Reich, Rich Bulbis, Sue Schimpf McHugh, Steve Turkovich, and Bill Schlag. The program is directed by Cerda I. Klingman, professor of Biochemical Pharmacology, who describes herself as the “faculty advisor, teacher, tutor, and booking agent.” Dr. Klingman doesn’t appear with the group when they arc giving their lectures. She has complete confidence that the undergraduates are knowledgeable enough to handle themselves without her presence. The program is not trying to discourage drug abuse per sc, but rather to teach people the true facts about various drugs. m group will examine both sides of drug use. They won’t try to give the impression that anyone who takes a drug will be killing himself or screwing up the rest of his life. They just want to promote awareness, by making the people fully understand the implications of drug use and abuse. “I feel that it is important for the person to know about the drug they are using,” said Ms. McHugh. ‘Then, if they use the drug, they know what they’re getting into.” She explained many people think they arc buying pure THC (tetrahydrocannabinol, the active ingredient in marijuana), but according to the drug laboratories, “there is none on the streets.” What those who think they are buying THC are actually getting is some kind of “animal tranquilizer,” she said. The group’s leetures will take the form of informal, almost “two-way conversation,” in which the audience participates and asks questions. According to the group, the younger kids ask more questions, perhaps because they are less inhibited andL don’t have to worry about peer group mockery. The group also said questions of a personal or family-related nature are made impersonal when the questioner begins with, “1 have a friend ..or “My neighbor ...’’ The Drug Education Program is a community service, but Dr. Klingman doesn’t see this as the main objective: “My first interest is in pharmacology, and teaching my students about the drugs and how to talk to people about them,” she said. ‘The community service is a by-product of the education.” Ms. McHugh has a slightly different opinion: “I want to give people the benefit of a good drug education.” She added; “Something I never had.” There have been only positive reactions • to the group by the community, according to Dr. Klingman. One teacher.wrote to Dr. Klingman after the group appeared at her school: “You must be very pleased to have (these] students. They are charming people best of all, they did a superlative job of drag education.” The letter also said: “It is no easy task to come into a - school 'cokT and establish a rapport with children ranging in age from 9 to 18 years. This was done by Bill and his friends, and they deserve commendation.” Cute kids More interesting than the letter from the teachers were the letters from some of the children. One sixth-grader wrote: “We epjoyed your students coming to our school and talking to us about drags. To tell you the truth, I didn't have any questions to ask, because they answered all of them for me. I think drugs are very Home for the holidays Easter and.Passover. No penalty asked This University is the only University Center without recess during Easter-Passover, Mr. Kade said. Mr. Dremuk questions the legitimacy of this report. He also said that if a student at this University misses which were more informal. One wrote; “When I grow up, I want to,be a narcotic agent, or someone who does away with dangerous and harmful drugs. I'm never going to take drugs I don’t need. I think bad drugs arc bad and I never want to get into them.” Another sixth-grade boy said: “Hi! I liked your performance. After your telling us about drugs, 1 don't wany any alcohol or coffee. I liked the .way you answered the questions with ease." Reactions to the Drug Education Program have been extremely favorable, it will undoubtedly continue to and provide a community. valuable service to the ‘I Am a Woman State Universities due for a possible change in calendar A possible revision of the academic calendar which would change the spring vacation from the third week of March to the week coinciding with Easter and Passover will be considered by the University Calendar Committee on Thursday. Committee undergraduate Paul Kade favors the plan, arguing that students would appreciate a vacation during a time when it is traditional for families to get together. Mr. Kade added that some of the other State colleges and many private schools schedule their spring break during the Easter-Passover period. Because this University does not, many students miss the chance of seeing friends during vacation. Some committee members felt that the change would conflict with the committee’s policy of not favoring any religion. Admissions and Records director Richard Dremuk argues that other religions may demand, and rightfully so, time off for their own holidays. Mr. Kade countered that during Easter-Passover,"it is more traditional for students to be at home than any other holiday in any other religion. Mr. Dremuk claimed that Easter and Passover are often spread apart on the calendar. In 1970, for example, there were 23 days between interesting. I really think that some day I could leam about drug abuse as well as you can. In fact, I’d like to leam about drugs more than some other things such as math, spelling, language, and also social studies.” Several other sixth-graders wrote letters In connection with the Office of Cultural Affairs, the Theatre department and the UUAB Drama Committee present Viveca Lindfors in I Am a Woman. The play will be staged at 8:30 p.m.. Monday April 8, in the Hardman Theatre. Tickets are available, although there is no charge for admission. a few days of class, he generally doesn’t fall too far behind. University President Robert Ketter has instructed professors not to penalize students who take off during Easter, Passover, or the Jewish High Holy Days during September and October. He did not include other holidays or religions on that list. Another stumbling block to the committee’s .decision stems from Albany. SUNY Central is developing what they term a “master calendar” for nearly all the schools in the SUNY system. This would mean that this University would have the same vacation dates as all the other State campuses. (The community colleges would be exempt from this plan, because of their tri-semester basis.) Albany doesn’t expect to have its Master Calendar ready until at least the 1975-76 school year. The decision made Thursday will affect the next two years. The committee also has to worry about the precedent they will be setting. Should the committee decide to pass the Easter-Passover resolution, all four of the University Centers in the system (Buffalo, Albany, Binghamton and Stony Brook) will schedule vacation during Easter. This should put pressure on Albany to include this in its Master Calendar. Mr. Kade has been told by the committee that he must demonstrate that the students want this change in the calendar. With the help of the SA's Alan Gilman, who is distributing a petition to the committee,, there is optimism that the Easter-Passover vacation will pass. If it doesn't, the subject is closed for two more years. Monday, 8 April 1974 The Spectrum Page five . . �m TAXcS- wen- i UOUI bSUNYI „.uennes to .o amet.w student a expenditures. >.S. Constitution, the fee guidelines are so permitting expenses for social, educational, ji or cultural purposes that they can be «ed in any way one wishes. Health care is obviously jn educational enterprise for participating students and jcial service which most students could not otherwise .rford. Even Dr. Retihan conceded that "a liberal interpretation" of the fee guidelines "might well include health services," and that such a conclusion was "not beyond the pale of presidential discretion." While Dr. Ketter could use that discretion to allow student-funded health services to continue, the negative ruling from Albany places him on shaky legal ground: As Dr. Ketter's own legal counsel warned, this University and SA would be financially liable in a community lawsuit against health care or the Birth Control Clinic, which would wipe and Albany would not stand out the student treasury behind him. Therefore, Dr. Ketter will try to convince the Board of Trustees that health care is a vital and necessary use for student fees. Dr. better's commitment to health care on this campus cannot be questioned. Although it is regrettable that his Administration waited to veto expenditures until Sub-Board had already spent $12,000 on health ventures. Dr. Ketter has allowed the Birth Control Clinic to continue, has signed for malpractice insurance, and has refused to cancel health services all in the face of a negative legal ruling from Albany. The crime is that although the State has failed to provide adequate funds for student health care, and although students at this University have overwhelmingly indicated that they want their fees spent on health care (the $67 fee, after alt, comes out of their pockets), a legalistic ruling from Albany threatens to thwart student desires and leave this campus with no health services at all. Students are being taxed without being allowed the slightest input into how their money is spent. When the State decided in 1970 that it would no longer fund intercollegiate athletics, the Board of Trustees amended the fee guidelines to allow student fees to fund varsity sports as an exception. A similar situation exists in health care: the State has refused to pay for it, and it has refused to let students pay for it. This is completely and totally unfair. On behalf of the thousands across the state who desperately need these services, we strongly urge the Board of Trustees to amend the mandatory fee guidelines to permit students to spend their fees on an extremely worthy cause: their own health.

The Philosophy Department has endorsed him for re-appointment. The department chairman has backed him. The Faculty of Social Sciences and its provost have recommended him. Nevertheless, by unilateral decree, vice-president for Academic Affairs Bernard Gelbaum has terminated Dr. Lawler's contract. The reason? Dr. Lawler did not receive so much as an explanation. While we have often criticized Dr. Gelbaum's insensitive way of dealing with people, it is a violation of human decency to fire a professor without even telling him the reasons why. This is not unusual; several other instructors in recent years have been canned without an explanation. In light of the fact that he was recommended by his department, chairman and Faculty, this can only suggest that Dr. Lawler, a Marxist philosopher and outspoken political activist, was terminated for political reasons. Every instructor fired by this University deserves at least a private, if not public, explanation. A more "open" Administration would achieve far better results than from its present secretive, no-comment method of dealing with people. Dr. Lawler is appealing his termination. If he is not reinstated, we demand a public, explanation as to why a respected professor recommended by every other segment of the University is being dismissed. JSi&: : SWfl&iS#&JS9 No trailblazer To the Editor. — all you really want is for me to live up to your expectations. SITUATION A: Late last year a man walked the Buffalo Women’s Center to offer his “friendship” to “our cause.” I explained the Center’s feelings and reasons for not relating to men, at which he was quite offended. Why? “Because all I want to do is be your friend.” When asked how he defined “friend,” he stated that a friend is someone who helps you out when you need it. I told him that the only way he could chip us out would be to leave us alone. He said he would, but then couldn’t support us. Why? Because we weren’t living up to his expectations. Who’re you trying to kid, man, you’re no friend. SITUATION B: All your life your parents tell you “all we want is for you to be happy.” You happen to violate one of the values your family holds sacred while pursuing your happiness. Your parents withdraw all love, communication, and ties of kinship. Who’re you trying to kid, morn and dad into SITUATION C: The Colleges have a new dean considers himself a proponent of radical alternative education. In fact, he’s done some writing about his ideas which, to anyone intimately familiar with College E, clearly shows that College E is the practical application of his theoretical philosophizing. At the same time, he’s a self-confessed career builder who finds it embarrassing (?) or untidy (?) to deal with the ramifications of our being a radical unit relating to a bureaucratic institution. Theoretically, he should resist bureaucratic pressures that attempt to impose “tradition” on an “alternative.” In reality, he has done the reverse. The irony is that we have lived up to his theoretical expectations. Who’re you trying to kid, Irv, you’re no trailblazer for radical alternative education!! who Rose Roberts College E �mi f’w' iMf ‘V , ■' -XW'ji'.v ,‘fi £ I bought myself a hat a while back. A cosmetic hat with no pretensions to usefulness, a large brown leather hat to match the which had'to be a gift because it is so large brown leather coat hard for me to spend moftey on myself. So after walking around, thinking about it for a while, I went back to the store where 1 had seen this hat and bought it. It cost an absurd amount of money, but what the hell, I was on vacation. The hat then got rained on, along with everything else in the area, but it seemed to survive that. It seems to have survived much less well its latest trauma. I wore it to a party. On arrival it seemed appropriate to put it upstairs, out of the way, off to the side somewhere. I couldnjt find it when it was time to leave. Eventually did. It was lying on its side on the bottom of a chair, with about ten coats on top of it, very, very, badly crushed. Which made me have some feelings. First of all I was angry. Flat out thoroughly pissed. The initial response to such a trauma is to pull bsck down to some cave in the beidrock of my- psyche and vow'never again to trust people. I run aroynt} the cave for a longist time yelling loudly about the fact that most people are irresponsible cretins, who are to be relied on for nothing unless one wishes to get fucked over. A secondary development involves a series of rationalizations. These ipclude such old standby’s as; “It’s your fault for not taking better care of your things, you should have put it in the closet where nobody would have noticed it!” andr“Well, even if itis true that most of the world is a bunch of irresponsible louts, you still have to live in that world, with them. So you have just have to deal yourself.” And finally, “If you just didn’t get with it so attached to things, it wouldn’t be so bad.” It is this last one that seems to be the hooker for me, and the one around which a great deal of my relationships with the world seem to center. A while back I had a tape recorder stolen. Since then some nice people gave me another just like it for my birthday. But I find I Ijave trouble taking it out of the house. Part of this seems to be overly active paranoia, to be sure. But other of it seems to be emotional. If the second one got stolen, it seems possible that the traum would be additive. Which would be crazy on my part, I do not venture to deny that. But which is also an emotional reality. I do not take well to affluence. It occurs to me as I write this that one reason for not growing up and going out into the great world is the fact that I might make at doing what I want to do, and it would have to be spent! Shudder. Which is only partially in jest. I have a rather primary head which operates on a basic suspicion that almost everything is way overpriced in terms of its intrinsic value. The only new pieces of furniture I was ever responsible for the purchase of were a king-size bed which my then wife had to nudge me into, and a water bed. (Which may or may not tell you something about where my head is.) This affluence-phobia seems to have roots y, in two different places. One involves the ||a above-mentioned suspicion that money is a thing to be treated with respect and held onto for periods of drought. (Same thing as a rainy day, but different.) The other is the more pathological piece which has to do with leaving yourself vulnerable. My suspicion is by Stone that the craziness goes approximately thusly: Because you are basically not a good person, if you go around buying things for yourself, the fates will punish you. Which in fact can happen around here if you forget to think paranoid. At this point, things seem to become rather confusing for me. On the one hand, it seems reasonable to suspect that I am somewhat mad. Which I can live with. Especially when it seems to me to be somewhat unclear as to what getting rid of my craziness will do for me. Suppose I cure my neurosis, and start to buy things for myself, and they get ripped off?

The cruncher being that I can/do get attached to things. I liked my hat. I still wear it, but it is a somewhat different feeling when I pick it up to put it on. There is a clear feeling of having been through the wars together and of “Right! This is what happens when you trust people to be responsible.” Which probably is not absolutely good for me. I have enough trouble letting myself get close to people and trust them anyway. The presence of additional ammunition for justifying my rationalizations is helpful in a not altogether useful way. At least to those other parts of my head that would just as soon that I accepted how important people are to me and learned how to live with it.

It is distressing and exacerbating enough when the executors of democracy within our country flout the responsibility of democracy. When this responsibility is flouted within the academy, the situation of discontent becomes even more sobering. Such a high disregard for thfc democratic process occurred this week, when Vice-President Gelbaum unilaterally denied the renewal of a contract to Dr. James M. Lawler, assistant professor, in the Department of Philsophy. Both the Philosophy Faculty and the Faculty of Social Sciences approved Dr. Lawler's contract renewal., Vice-President Gelbaum offered no explanation for his inequitable action. We, the undersigned graduate students in M.A. and Ph.D. programs at SUNYAB are currently ■ . enrolled in an interdisciplinary seminar with Dr. Lawler. We would like to attest to his academic character and scholarly presentation throughout our course work with him.

His only reason On March 6, 1974, a guest lecturer took over economics 182 class, 11:00-11:50 a m., because Dr. Michael Hartley was called away for some unknown reason. Forgetting to identify himself, he began to lecture, pausing occasionally to ask for quiet, for a few students were talking among themselves. After IS minutes, he observed a student reading a book (out of a class of ISO) and told him to leave the room. This student was bothering no one, making no noise or commotion, and generally not paying attention to his lecture. I feel this University is in a sad state if it feels it must retain instructors of this caliber, instructors who get upsdt enough to deny a student his right Jo attend a lecture simply because he failed to give his for his action was that the student disturbed him by full and undivided attention to a lecturer who was undeniably boring and to a lecture that was for the most part a review of the previous lecture.

There are as yet no formal guidelines for dosage of these drugs, and the physician must go through a carefully programmed period of trial-and-error before each particular child’s dosage is formulated. The recefve, , Side effects reported Ritalin is the brand name of the inost commonly-prescribed drug for hyperactivity. It has been found to be the least toxic and most effective of all the drugs prescribed for the to a child who disease. But even when the dosage is too high, responds to the drug, if the child’s growth and weight patterns will be disrupted. Therefore, height and weight musj be carefully monitored, explained Cynthia Clayton, who works with hyperactive children at the Drug Evaluation-Clinic of the Child Guidance Center at Children’s Hospital in Buffalo. “It’s a-very hard decision to administer drugs or not when side effects of the drug of choice are known,” said Dr. Clayton. “Follow-up is very important. Once the child is calmed down, things can be worked out through counseling and then the drug dose can be tapered.” Statistics vague distraclability, impulsiveness and excitability are the major characteristics of the hyperactive child, according to Mark A. Stewart, author of the book Raising A Hyperactive Child. Such a child is not deficient in l.Q. or mental ability, but he lacks the ability to concentrate and constructively direct the overabundance of energy which he will often display in destructive and aggressive ways, much to the dismay of parents, teachers and peers. These children are classified as underachievers. Overactivity, The syndrome afflicts 8 boys for every girl, and usually largely disappears by adolescence. Statistics are vague regarding the true number of hyperactive children in the United States, and vaguer still for the number of children receiving drug treatment. Estimates have ranged from 1.5 to 5 million. Parents suffer too Some authorities feel hyperactivity is due to an immaturity in the child’s central nervous system. “We can reasonably theorize that hyperactivity may also be a sign of delayed development in a particular part of the brain or a lack of proper coordination of development in several centers of the brain,” reports Dr. Stewart in his book. Other theories deal with the effects 'of brain injury and chemical imbalances in the nervous system. For those who must live with a hyperactive child, life can be made unbearable, especially before the child has been properly diagnosed, and parents have little understanding of the problem. When the cause of these behavior problems are unknown, parents first think it is only a matter of discipline, and later become baffled when their Page eight. The SpecttUW Monday, 8 April 1974 . child does not respond to spankings and punishment. The home becomes a “battleground,” as one parent described it, and family members have few peaceful moment? when their hyperactive youngster is in the house. Medical help, a recent step Life is also sad at times for the parents of this child, for the hyperactive child usually has few friends he or she can get along with due to his or her erratic behavior, inability to follow' rules and play games properly. It is difficult for parents to deal with their child’s loneliness and low self-esteem, resulting from repeated social rejection. School is no different and perhaps worse for the hyperactive child. If normal children find it difficult to sit still in a classroom for long periods, for the hyperactive pupil this poses an impossible task. He or she is a constant source of disruption in the classroom, getting up and down, running around the room, unable to complete assignments, distracting other children. Teachers are sometimes forced to request that the child be removed from the classroom altogether. Before hyperkinesis was recognized as a legitimate disease or syndrome beyond the child’s conscious control, these children were simply regarded as “bad” and little was done to successfully help them and their parents, who suffered with equal pain. Amphetamines recommended The most common method of treatment today for hyperactivity is the administration of stimulant drugs. Surprisingly, amphetamines act as a calming agent in hyperactive children and give them the ability to. focus their energy and attention on a single task. Ritalin and Dexedrine are presently the most commonly-prescribed drugs of this type. These drugs do not cure hyperkinesis, but merely eradicate the symptoms, so other therapeutic techniques can be applied or so the child can sit still long enough to learn in the classroom. Without question, these are behavior modification drugs, a term which has come to assume negative connotations. And the nature of hyperkinesis as a medical ailment is presently recognized in a rather nebulous way by medical authorities. This situation places the possible candidate for hyperactive drug therapy in a precarious position. For such a child is now at the mercy of teachers and doctors, who have the power of referral and diagnosis respectively. And the potential for abuse of these powers is very real. • Referral types Mellaril and Dexedrine are other drugs given Ritalin, which is only an amphetamine-like substance, Dexedrine is an amphetamine, and Mellaril is srtranquilizer. Mellaril can cause liver toxicity, and is usually prescribed to teenagers, or to those patients who don’t respond to stimulant drugs. In general, stimulant drugs can cause loss of appetite and sleep difficulty if not administered properly. Dr. Clayton believes there are three types of children referred to her for tests for hyperactivity. “With the first group, there’s just no doubt in your mind,” she said. ‘This is the child who runs around the room, opening all the drawers, touching everything.” “Then there’s the more gray area, when the school says the kid can't sit still in school. Abuse can easily creep into this situation. A lot of these kids are asked to leave school for an evaluation,” she explained. The third group is described by Dr. Clayton as having “a behavior problem or an emotional acting-out due to a stress situation,” such as problems at home or a family crisis. In this case, she said no drugs would normally be prescribed unless a true psychiatric disturbance was apparent. to hyperactive patients. Unlike Drugs not enough “All these types are confusing to diagnose,” she commented. Describing the attitude of the Buffalo public schools toward possible cases of hyperactivity, she feels the schools have been “pretty good about the psychological exam,” which she considers a necessary part of testing. Dr. Clayton claims she is not a “pro-drug person,” and stresses follow-up and contact with the child’s school and family when drugs are prescribed. “Blood counts are necessary several times a year, and monitoring the drug doses are a big problem,’’ she continued. She also recommends guidance counseling for the patient and the parents. “You must convince the. parents it’s not their fault. They must overcome their guilt complex and adopt more adequate expectations for their child,” she said. Dr. Clayton also makes it a point to try to understand the family and the child’s situation to more fully understand the problems of her patient. Prescription controls imposed Presently in New York State, due to the new drug'abuse law, doctors are required to make out three copies of each prescription for many drugs. [See The Spectrum, April 5, page 4.] One copy Stays with the physician, one goes to the pharmacist and one is kept.on file in Albany. Despite the current controversy over whether this constitutes an “invasion of privacy/’ as Dr. Clayton feels it does, it allows for a more apcurate statistical record of drug treatment for hyperactivity. Prescriptions for such drugs must also be re-issued every month, according to Dr. Qayton, which places further limitations and controls on distribution of drugs and facilitates more frequent check-ups. Such controls are only a recent measure, and jn 1970 when the news of behavior modification drug-taking by grammar school children became widely publicized, the controversy was strong enough to prompt a House of Representatives subcommittee review of the issues. Although nothing was resolved by the committee, many facts about hyperkinesis and the ethical questions regarding drug treatment were made public, and it .also served as an impetus for further research into the area. Congressional hearings Cornelius E. Gallagher, then a Representative, led the hearing and began by raising some serious questions regarding the long-term efficacy ol a drug-oriented solution. His first major point was that a history of drug-taking, approved by parents, educators and medical authorities, counteracts the nation-wide campaign against drug-abuse. “I am frankly very curious about the kind of credibility his parents have when they try to guide him away from amphetamines after encouraging him to take them,” he said. A second point dealt with the potential handicap of having a permanent record of drug-therapy in the child’s later life. Mr. feared casting “a clous of suspicion over that child’s future,” and commented; “It would indeed be a paradoxical effect to help a child, but to damn him at the same time.” Diagnostic errors ' Mr. Gallagher also abhorred the possibility of a “dependence on quick and inexpensive solutions offered by the new technology without adequate attention being paid to the slower and perhaps more costly methods which would preserve the sanctity ot human values and the precious resources of the human spirit.” He added that not enough attention was being Abuse? There is factual evidence that these power have already been abused. Children who are merely overactive, or suffer from emotional problems, or have a personality clash with their teacher, have been diagnosed as hyperactive and given medication. Many doctors do not give f, I f f - �r iikt- S • - $ijl m gSkjL devoted to research of the long-term effects of drug-therapy for hyperactivity. The most crucial issue explored by Mr. Gallagher, which has initiated intense debate among educators as well, regards accurate diagnosis of the child who may have minimal brain dysfunction. Mr. Gallagher argued; “Obviously, this unstructured passion for all the events in a child’s world is regarded as unruly and disruptive, particularly in overcrowded classrooms. I fear that there is a very great temptation to diagnose the bored but bright child as hyperactive, prescribe drugs, and thus deny him full learning during his most creative years.” Schools as prisons John Holt, a well-known author and educator, presented written testimony at the House hearing. He commented on this matter as follows: “Children have a great deal of energy; they like to move about; they live and learn with their bodies and muscles, not just their eyes and ears; when adults try to compel them to remain still and silent for long periods of time they resent and resist it; most of them can be cowed and silenced by various bribes and threats; 5 to 15 per cent cannot. These we diagnose as suffering from a ‘learning malady' called hyperkinesis.” “We consider it a disease because it makes it difficult to run our schools as we do, like maximum security prisons, for the comfort and convenience of the teachers and administrators who work in them. The energy of children is ‘bad’ because it is a nuisance to the exhausted and overburdened adults who do not want to or know how to and are not able to keep up with it.” ‘Big Brother’ Many would feel that Mr. Holt’s position is far too radical in its presentation of the school system, and perhaps paranoid in the sense that he almost seems to perceive a conspiracy against the natural childhood instincts by adults in power who .eek expedient remedies for discipline problems. Yet, John Holt is an influential man and there are still others who think his position is not radical enough. Thus, it becomes apparent how complicated the issue of behavior modification drug therapy is. The philosophical questions also expand when the problem is viewed in a collective sense, as opposed to individual cases, and shades of “Big Brother” and his potential power creep into the picture. Government statement Currently much research on drug therapy for minimal brain dysfunction is being conducted through grants awarded by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), a branch of the Department of Health, Education and Welfare. NIMH has issued the following statements about til i i i such drug therapy: “There is a need to diagnose appropriately the individual child before these drugs are used When given under competent, medical supervision, these drugs are both safe and clinically effective in a very high percentage (approximately 65 to 80%) of hyperactive children.” “These drugs have been effective both in the behavioral sense of reducing ovcractivity. impulsiveness, temper outbursts and aggressiveness, while at the same time increasing attention span, concentration, and the ability to The more common perform cognitive tasks side-effects of methylphenidete (Ritalin), and dextroamphetamine (Dexedrine), loss of appetite and sleep difficulty, can be controlled by adjusting the dosage prescribed and the time during the day when the drugs are given.” ... .. . Non-drug solutions Some people are searching for other for hyperactivity. One such man is Ben F. Feingold, director emeritus of the Department of Allergy at the Kaiser-Permanente Medical Center in San Francisco. He reported that a diet free of articial flavors and colors can eliminate the symptoms of hyperactivity. Other foods prohibited include some fruits and vegetables containing natural salicylates. Aspirin containing salicylates are replaced with other analgesics. Many of these substances have already been proven to cause a wide range of allergic reactions by themselves, according to Dr. Feingold. This diet, although eliminating the need for the stimulant drugs, has its own problems. Dr. Feingold has advised that the whole family go on the diet with the hyperactive child, to eliminate temptation for him or her, because just one small bite of an artificially flavored food could trigger symptoms of hyperactivity lasting from 24-72 hours. In addition, 90% of food contains such additives, making these products difficult to avoid. special learning centers and new teaching techniques for them. One notably successful effort is taking place in Santa Monica. California, where eight learning centers have been established for children with learning disorders, including hyperactivity. Approximately 250 children attend the centers. Public responsibility Entitled “The Madison Plan." the major difference between the teaching techniques used hejc for hyperactive students and those of the regular classroom, is the shortened time span allotted to activities. Every 15 minutes a new activity is begun and children are given tangible, immediate rewards for their efforts. Children are not isolated, and continue to live at home with their families, and the long-term goal is to get them back into regular schools. In spite of these novel breakthroughs, the major portion of research dealing with the treatment of hyperkinesis appears to focus on drug therapy, rather than drug-free diets or innovative educational measures. There is no question that drugs haVe a valuable role to play in our lives, when used carefully and cautiously, but it is also a healthy sign to constantly evaluate these drugs and the reasons they are being prescribed. The use of behaviof modification drugs, especially for young children, is not an affair analogous to the swallowing of aspirin for a simple headache. Hopefully, medical science is working to help the children who must live with hyperactivity, and not simply using them as guinea pigs for drug research. To insure this state, however, is the responsibility of the public. Educational advances As of yet, no controlled studies have been run to test this theory, partly because there exist an estimated 2500-3000 artificial flavors to be tested. There are only 11 artificial colors. All these additives are presently approved tor use by the Food and Drug Administration. Coffee has been found as an adequate replacement for stimulant drugs in the case of hyperactivity by a South Carolina psychiatrist. Robert C. Schnackenberg, who claims the caffeine in coffee calms these children as does amphetamine drugs. He reports that 200-300 mgs. of caffeine a day is the best dosage. Again, no controlled studies have been done to validate this theory. The doctor has only seen it work tor some of his patients. The education field is also beginning to deal directly with the hyperactiye child by developing Monday, 8 April 1974-.<I'heflfHRJtrum » Page nihe H �.

Rage twolvo The Spectrum Monday, 8 April 1974 . . 3610 Main Street, Buffalo, New York V 9 614/09 �/ Baseball Bulls defeat ‘crouchers’ in twin bill last year,” said Bull Coach Bill Monkarsh. “Now he is playing the way he is capable ofplaying. He’s by Dave Geringer Sports Editor FAIRFIELD, Conn. Exhibiting a vastly improved — defense, the baseball Bulls opened their Northern schedule on an auspicious note Saturday afternoon. Buffalo defeated Fairfield University twice, 9-6 and 5-3, to bring their record to one game under 500. The Bulls took their 5-6-1 record to Seton Hall yesterday afternoon andwind up today at their road swing Princeton. Fairfield’s squad is called the Stags, but Crouchers would have been a more appropriate nickname. Most of the Fairfield hitters, who were not very tall to got a lot of experience now he is the key to our defense,” Monkarsh added, The Bulls unveiled their running game, stealing three bases in each contest. “We made good contact and we had men running all the time,” noted Monkarsh. “We have good team speed and we are capable of playing a running game,” he added, The Bulls will take their running game to New York City this weekend to face Long Island University and St. Johns, — Benefit plannedfor research James J. O’Brien, an attorney and spokesman for the State University of Buffalo Alumni Association, has announced that the association will sponsor an all-star high school football game to bn held on Rotary Field in August 197S. The announcement came in a press conference held at the Statler-Hilton last Friday morning. Reasons for the game include the promotion of Western New York’s top football players as weU as developing a sense of community in the region, but mainly the game will raise funds fpr projects in sports medicine research and development to be conducted by this University’s new School of Health Education The sports medicine field is an important and rapidly-growing area, and the proceeds from the benefit game will afford the new school, formerly called the Physical Education department, a chance to be a pioneer in this much-needed field. Possibly a Department of Sports Medicine will result, fulfilling the School of Health Education’s desire to have a strong scientific base and explore new areas. It appears that the program will be more than a training ground for athletic trainers, although that would be a positive result. In addition, the School of Health Education has'proposed research into heat exhaustion, weight loss and cause and effect of injuries, particularly in football and hockey, as well as protective equipment and injury prevention. pecia ! Projects include development of athletic h therapists, recreation for the handicapped narcotics d! tect,on m athletes as well as the health problems ofage*roup competition.

It is a little ironic that this University will benefit from a sport that it dropped several years ago. However, the people involved are to be commended for their efforts in attempting to make sport a safer experience for the participant. start with, batted in exaggerated crouches. Left fielder Keith Garvey, whose stance resembled a kneeling position, finished the day with two hits and four walks, while assassinating several worms. The stances used by the Crouchers greatly contributed to their double header total of 13 wlaks The Stags could also have been dubbed the Miscues. Fairfield managed to make 11 errors in the twin bill, seven of them gift wrapping five unearned runs in the Bulls first game victory. Good relief Righthander John Atti and Mike Klym hurled three innings a piece in relief of Bull opening game starter Bill Lasky,"\Vhite'' Buffalo exploded for five sixth-inning runs to send Stag ace righthander Bob Trojanowski to his third consecutive defeat this season. Left fielder Dan Gorman and second baseman Rich Magliazzo each drove in two runs in the sixth. “I was just getting into shape in florida,” said Klym, who lowered his ERA from 11.57 to 5.06. “I’ve got my arm back and I’ve got my confidence back,” Klym added. Shortstop Jim Lalyanis anchored the Bull defense accepting 12 of 13 chances Saturday. “Jim had a bad spring CHEAP THRILLS!

You may never want to become a professional. Yet, your photography is as important a means of self-expression to you as yourSpeech. You demand the same excellence in your photographic equipment as you do of your photographic skills The Canon F-1 is the camera that can fulfill any photographic task to which you put it. It can stand up to your ability in any situation. Naturally, a great camera like the F-1 won't ensure great results. That's up to you. Yet—it’s nice to know that your camera can grow with you as a photographer. F*art of the reason for this is the F-1 system. Since it was designed in totality, it offers total performance. There is nothing “added on" in the F-1 system. Everything works as it was designed to. and inte- grates superbly with everything else. You'll spend less time worrying xbout operating the camera than in ng. And that’s what creative jraphy is really all about, itrols Jail into place under inger. It’s no accident. Protonalswho depend on a camera ir livelihood have a deep i for the F-1's handling. It's mg how much a comfortable 1 can improve your work. Sharing these lenses and many of these accessories are the new Electronic Canon EF, with fully automatic exposure control, the FTb, now improved with all exposure information visible in the finder, and the TLb, great for a second camera body or for getting started in Canon photography.

Promotion was simply a matter of time, provided you could spend 20 years in the process. But, todayrbusiness depends on technology. Technology that can’t wait a moment if it’s going to keep pace with what’s happening. That’s why, at Kodak, our basic reliance on scientific research makes the need for creative young minds more demanding than ever. We must have people with drive and ambition, impatient to put what they’ve learned into practice. People who get all the freedom and responsibility they can handle, and tadde our problems with their ideas. Which, we’re happy to say, has helped many of our scientists yield important discoveries. For example: The woman on the left has devised new and improved photographic materials for specialized scientific applications in fields such as astronomy and holography. The young man is an expert on surface analysis. His work in photoelectron spectroscopy helps to identify unknown substances. The woman cm the right has a hgt fourteen The Spectrum Monday, 8 April 1974 .

They came up with new problems while solving some of our old ones. But theyVe uncovered some promising answers, too. As they continue theirresearch, you may read about them again. The oldest is just over30. Why do we give young men and women so much room to test their ideas? Because good ideas often lead to better products. Which are good for business. And we’re in business to make a profit. But in furthering our own business interests, we also further society’s interests.Which makes good sense. After all, our business depends on society. So we care what happens to it. / M| Kodak. More than a business. �.V - • ■ ; prices, SLOW unfair SERVICE, ridiculous repairs. Available at Independent Foreign Car service. Write Box T50 Spectrum.

Young Fiedler’s reaction was to reject such light fiction and jump into the world of serious literature. Now, he says, “1 hate my reaction.” As if to make up for his years as an intellectual, rebelling against his old man. Dr. Fiedler is moving In the direction of exploring comic books, radio, television, science fiction, movies, Tanan stories, and well, you name it, “I think it would be as profitable,” he explains, “for people to study The Lone Ranger’ as a book like Finnegan ’j Wake. Since Dr. Fiedler was last week named chairman of the University’s English Department for the next three years, it looks like a lot of people will be moving with him. ‘This is going to be a difficult time,” he sighs, “to be head of an English Department any place, because this is a time of shrinking enrollment. What is necessary for this department to decide is what’s most important and to fight to keep it.” Dr. Fiedler feels that the “open and experimental” nature of the department is the feature he intends to fight to preserve. ‘This is the best open English Department in the country,” he asserted with pride. “It would be a mistake to try to turn it into a second-best traditional English Department. It’s always been willing to try anything.” — red H^mtecK Housing law upheld by court Anything goes Under that hazy rubric, “anything” which so often means he is interested in including a concentration on “anything / want” .. . . those pop mentioned above.

The ease involved six State University at Stony Brook students who rented a six-bedroom house in Belle Terre, L.I., a residential community of about 700 near the Stony Brook campus. The High Court’s action reversed decisions by the Federal District Court and the U.S. Court of Appeals. In writing for the majority in the 7-to-2 vote. Justice William O. Douglas said the police power exercised by local governments in zoning ordinances “is ample to lay out zones where family values and the blessings of quiet seclusion and clean air make the area a sanctuary for people.” In a dissenting opinion. Justice ThurgoodMarshall declared the village “has, in effect, acted to fence out those individuals whose choice of lifestyles differs from that of its current residents.” No effect in Buffalo Buffalo’s Corporation Counsel, Anthony Manguso, said he foresees no change in the pattern of enforcing housing ordinances in Buffalo. The entire city of Buffalo is subject to an old zoning ordinance which forbids more than two unrelated persons from living together in a house or apartment. Despite isolated cases of harassment, the city has refrained from evicting many of the 5000 University students who share apartments off-campus. Mr, Manguso said the Supreme Court ruling really has no effect upon the city, except that “the city can establish conduct standards in zoning laws.” Student leaders on this campus had been confident that the Supreme Court would rule the housing ordinance unconstitutional. If the ordinance had been overturned, then the present Buffalo ordinance would also be rendered unconstitutional. Then the threat of eviction because there were too many students living together in an apartment would be removed, and students might sleep easier. However, University District Councilman William Price cautioned students not to think of the housing crisis as a simple issue to be resolved by one Common Council resolution relating to the number of students who can live in a dwelling. Like the mayor of Belle Terre, L.I., Mr. Price noted that the community wants to preserve its stature. In the case of the fctony Brook students, the small community claimed that additional students had moved into the — — ‘ , . . _ .. ,, . ... , „ . . , , « —continued on page 5 — Chaotic laws Mr. Price said the two reasons for limiting the occupancy of a house are that the community “doesn’t like communes,” and that the community wishes to “preserve the character of the neighborhood.” However, the Supreme Court decision will not create a “rash of code enforcement,” Mr. Price said. He noted numerous flaws and inconsistencies in the laws and emphasized that the laws “create chaos that works only for the landlords.” He noted that the ordinance restricting the number of unrelated people that can live together was not written with the student population in mind. Despite the need to alleviate the housing crisis, Mr. Price asserted that there was no simple solution. What might result from his ongoing study into housing problems is a package deal in which the University would supply technical assistance to make the surrounding area more livable; the students would be restricted in the amount of roommates for a particular dwelling by the number of real bedrooms it contains; and the landlords would make a sufficient profit so that maintenance of houses would not be as great a financial burden as it has been. When students petitioned the Common Council March 1972 to repeal the Buffalo housing ordinance, Councilman Lewandowski was an outspoken supporter for retaining the ordinance. Mr. Price feels Mr. Lewandowski is “ripe” for a vote change. However, Mr. Price admitted that students “would have to give a little.” Mr. Price had said he was willing to. “cut out one student per house,” but had no suggestions as to where they would live once they were ousted. “I don’t know where to go” to solve the problem, he' said. He suggested the University or the state, or the students themselves doing something to secure more housing for students they ousted. Ultimately, the problem of student housing will be decided “in terms of housing development and maintenance,” he said. in —York Leslie Fiedler �Faculty Senate discusses analysis of courses sffijga-fega office would work out its own the to to a improve questionnaire and report New methods designed evaluation of teaching ability at this University-wide Central Office. Dr. Reichert does not want to see University were recommended in a report Effectiveness Committee another “experimental” program. He by the Teaching would like to see a mandatory system so (TEC) to the Faculty-Senate Tuesday. It is generally agreed among professors that mote people will take it seriously. William Allen, professor of History, that the Analysis of Courses and Teachers the words of one wanted to vote down Dr. Hochfield’s (ACT) surveys are, in faculty member, “a disaster.” One of the substitute motion and urged acceptance of most controversial recommendations was a the TEC’s report. “Let’s live with the ACT call for a Center for Instructional and the committee’s resolutions for a Development, “which enables professors to while,” Dr. Allen coaxed.

This are “difficult to interpret* and It takes “even the most experienced person in statistical analysis a great deal of time to digest the results.” 6) Few know how to use the results. 7) Students do not take the evaluation seriously. Bruce Francis, director of the Survey Research Center who runs the present ACT program, was not willing to comment on the TEC report’s specific criticisms until he and his staff had time to study them. However, Dr. Francis singled out one criticism in the *report that he felt was undeserved. That objection was that the . .

Foreign Summer registration ten-point scale running up and down the page, where the student marks down his answer, is confusing. “How often does this happen?” asked Dr. Francis. “After all, students have a lot of experience in filling out forms like this.” Faculty input needed The TEC’s recommendation for a Center for Instructional Development is very valuable and should be supported, Dr. Francis insisted. But, he said, it will need considerable funds and tremendous faculty input. However, if each faculty or department has their own Office of Teaching Effectiveness, as. Dr. Reichert proposes, the amount of capital needed to run the Center would not run as high. In response to criticism of the ACT The Office of Admissions and Records will 1974 Registration conduct Summer Session beginning Monday, April 15, 1974. All students currently registered at the University for the Spring 1974 semester need only to complete a Course Request Form. All new students for Summer 1974 must complete a Student Data Form which will be available at Admissions and Records on April 15, 1974.

Some take ACT seriously Responding to comments by faculty members that the ACT has been a failure, Dr. Francis said the fact that the faculty is taking a great deal of time with student evaluations is an indication of success, not failure. Several faculty members said they had taken the surveys seriously and acted accordingly in improving the quality of their instruction. The very productive Faculty-Senate meeting included President Robert Ketter’s formal acceptance of the Reichert Prospectus for the Colleges. Dr. Ketter did '’not accept the Prospectus without reservations, however. In a letter to Senate chairman Gilbert Moore, Dr. Ketter wrote that “certain provisions leave me with an uneasy feeling.” He noted in particular a section in the Propsectus that permits mutual veto power between the Faculty-Senate and the Collegiate Assembly in selection of Chartering Committee members. Dr. Ketter views this arrangement “as an ai. hoc response to a particularly troublesome problem.” He does not want this arrangement to establish precedent for selections of members on other University committees. The debate on the TEC report in the Faculty-Senate will continue on April 16. The report has not yet been approved, and it appears that more student and faculty input is needed to resolve the debate. STEAKS (Sat. . $ not be returned along with the computer ACT ‘a disaster’ The TEC report met with mexed reaction. George Hochfidd, chairman-elect of the Senate, said: “We all knew ACT was a disaster before the report.” He urged the Faculty-Senate to start at the beginning again by making a substitute motion. Dr. Hochfield’s motion, which was eventually voted down, called for the establishment of a program that would directly involve the Student Association (SA) and abolish the Office of Teaching Effectiveness. Physics professor Jonathan Reichert stirred the Senate by vividly urging more specific questions on jhe ACT distributed three weeks before the end of questionnaire. Stressing that the process the semester so the results would be must be decentralized, He would like to see available before the next semester began. ‘There is a feeling at SA that these professors and students from various departments help conjure up questions. evaluations are very important,” Mark Dr. Reichert did not agree with Dr. ,Humm, SA Academic Affairs Coordinator, Hochfield’s proposal to involve SA because told the Faculty-Senate. “I don’t think we he does not feel that students can handle could handle it successfully, especially the collection of such a vast amount of because we don’t have the funds,” Mr. data.

Dr. Ketter is nearing the end of his flve-year term of office and is therefore subject to the “Guidelines for the Review Process for the Chancellor and Presidents,” adopted by the SUMY Board of Trustees in December 1973. This procedure calls for the creation of an ad hoc committee comprised of four members, one from each of the four main campus constituencies: faculty, students, the administration and the UB Council. State University of New York (SUNY) Chancellor Ernest Boyer recently asked Faculty-Senate Chairman Gilbert Moore, former Student Association (SA) President Jon Dandes, Executive Vice President Albert Somit and UB Council chairman William C. Baird to be members of the Presidential review committee. Chaired by Dr. Moore, the committee must submit “a written appraisal of the presidential performance” as specified by the trustees’ guidelines. This consists of a documented committee report, as well as an original report by each committee member representing the opinions of his constituents. The reports will be based on President Ketter’s execution of his duties according to six criteria specifically outlined in the guidelines. These include: academic leadership and management, administrative leadership and management, the institutional tone set by the President, internal relationships, external relationships, and sensitivity to the needs of the campus. Variety of. opinion Discussing his forthcoming investigation, Dr. Moore explained that he would sample the recommendations of the faculty in a variety of ways. He hopes to gain some verbal feedback about President Ketter’s performance from about 30% of the Faculty-Senate, 5% of the voting faculty, most of the Senate Executive Committee, and various special interest groups within the faculty. The committee will begin meeting with campus and community organizations next week. Additionally, Dr. Moore said that although the six criteria will serve as areas of discussion in assessing Dr. Ketter, the participants will undoubtedly focus on the aspects of the President’s term which seem most important to this University. “We want people to respond in light of their experience,” he said. Some of the groups which the committee has already the University Assembly, contacted include: Faculty-Senate, Civil Service Employees Association (CSEA), Campus Security Union (Council 82, AFL-CIO), Student Association (SA), Graduate Student Association * •, (GSA), Dental Student Association, Medical School Pohty, Student Bar Association, Millard Fillmore Student Association (MFCSA), Black Student Union, Puerto Rico Student Organization, United University Professionals (UUP), Alumni Association, UB Advisory Council, Committee for Recruitment and Promotion of Women, Committee for Minority Faculty and Staff Recruitment, UB Council, Ethos and The Spectrum, Explaining that the criteria adequately represnted “aD facets of the job,” Dr. Somit said the procedure of appraising a university president in this way was unique in the country. “It is an excellent idea,” he said. So for, favorable Mr. Baird was also enthusiastic about the thoroughness of the committee’s work. “So far, the investigations have been favorable to Dr. Ketter,” he indicated. As chairman of the UB Council, Mr. Baird has already met with the Community Council, Executive Alumni and various other community groups. According to the guidelines, President Ketter must also submit a written self-evaluation to Chancellor Boyer, who will study it and then send it to the committee. All the investigations of the committee are strictly confidential, including Dr. Ketter’s self-appraisal. However, Dr. Ketter would like to see this document published at the conclusion of the committee’s evaluation. He emphasized that unlike most other campuses, the State University of Buffalo was always open about these kind of proceedings. 'There’s nothing hidden from the campus,” President Ketter said. But Chancellor Boyer has strongly discouraged Dr. Ketter from doing so, because he feels an unfair precedent would be set for future presidents who did not want their confidential reports published. Self-improvement However, Dr. Ketter confided that the last section of his 52-page report dealt with future problems the University would have to face. Since all the reports contained in the presidential review would be made available to him, Dr. Ketter felt the evaluations would help him improve his performance as an educator and an administrator. The presidential review is expected to be completed and sent to Chancellor Boyer by May 1. Any organization or individual that would like to make a written recommendation to the ad hoc committee must send it to Dr. Moore almost immediately. This is the first year the State University of New York has used this method of evaluation for reappointing a university president. Chancellor Boyer and the President of the State University at Stony Brook are also being evaluated according to the new guidelines. New Student Assembly talks on their problems by Clem Colucci Contributing Editor The Student Assembly got what Executive Vice President Scott Salimando “a feel of the new Executive promised it Committee” in its first meeting under the new Student Association (SA) Administration. Most of Tuesday’s meeting was taken up by reports from the officers and coordinators as the Assembly and Executive Committee explored each other’s priorities. But any suspicion that the first meeting would be timid or hesitant was shattered when SA President Frank Jackalone opened his remarks with; “A lot of people may be dissatisfied by what I’m going to say.” Looking at the group of roughly 50 people in Haas Lounge, Mr. Jackalone said: “This is the entire level of student involvement at this University.” Even that, he clearly implied, was not much. The Student Assembly lacks knowledge of campus affairs, Mr. Jackalone said. “There are decisions being made in Hayes Hall and on the floor of the Faculty-Senate that 90% of this body knows nothing about.” He cited the issue of teaching effectiveness being discussed at the Faculty-Senate meeting that afternoon: “Academic Affairs Coordinator Mark Humm and a few Spectrum reporters is all the student input we have,” Mr. Jackalone maintained. - — Student awareness wanted He said the Assembly would have to work hard to be of any use, especially on committee assignments. “We need student awareness,” he emphasized, “and that student awareness has to start here.” Mr. Jackalone let the Assembly vote on some appointments, relinquishing his authority to do it unilaterally. The Assembly elected Sub-Board I Vice President Richard Hochman to fill a vacancy on the Finance Committee, Pamela Benson to fill Mr. Jackalonc’s former spot as Assembly representative to the Executive Committee, and Student Affairs Coordinator Howie Schapiro and Terry Goldberg to round out the Personnel and Appointments Committee, which must soon meet to decide on appointed SA positions. All these results were subject to Mr. Jackalone’s approval, which he subsequently gave. Mr. Salimando informed the Assembly of the formation of the Food Service Advisory Committee, the Bookstore Standing Committee and the reinstitution of a seconds table for Food Service, accomplishments he credited to the past SA administration. CIA involvement Then Mr. Salimando discussed the new Committee for the Improvement of the Assembly (CIA). He emphasized the “need for procedure,” saying he could not change the Assembly unilaterally and urged Assembly members to contribute ideas. He also said SA would try to revamp Public Information to get more information both to the Assembly and to students. The other officers and coordinators reported their activities to the Assembly and repeated their pleas for students to work on committees. In other business, Mr. Jackalone proposed several constitutional amendments. This is required by the SA Constitution, which states all amendments must be proposed at the meeting before the one at which they are voted upon. The amendments propose changes in the amending process, the make-up and selection procedure for the Finance and Personnel and Appointments Committees, and the establishment of a University Religious Council. Friday, 5 April 1974 The Spectrum Page three . . • • �in triplicate by law by Joseph P. Esposito Spectrum Staff Writer A New York State law designed to help control abuses of prescription drugs has been labelled “an invasion of privacy" by some local physicians. The Controlled Substances Law, sponsored by Stale Assemblyman Chester Haidt (R; Amherst), went into effect on April I, 1973. Since that time, all physicians and pharmacists in the state have been required to fill out prescriptions in triplicate when prescribing narcotics, amphetamines or barbiturates. The procedure is administered by the Bureau of Narcotic Control of the New York State Department of Health. Under the triplicate prescription procedure, whenever a physician prescribes such “Controlled Substances” as Morphine, Demarol (a pain killer), Ritalin (a stimulant). Straight Codeine, Preludin (a diet drug), Dexedrine (an amphetamine), and Petcodan (a pain killer), he is required by law to fill out a prescription form three times. New forms used The law requires that physicians and dentists use a special state-supplied prescription form for such drugs. This official form consists of an origianl and two carbon copies, and may be purchased from the Bureau of Narcotics Control. One hundred forms cost $ 10. Having filled out the prescription, the physician retains one copy to be kept in his files for five years. He gives the other two copies to the patient, who then takes them to a pharmacy where the prescription can be filled. Drug containers for the regulated medicines carry an orange label with the wording “Controlled Substances, Dangerous Unless Used as Directed." The pharmacist retains one copy for his files, and mails the third copy to the Narcotic Control Bureau in Albany, where the information is computerized. Controls for veterinarians The law is designed to keep a check both on physicians who may prescribe excessive narcotics, amphetamines, and barbiturates; and on patients, who may circulate among many doctors in order to obtain large quantities of the controlled substances. Previously, it was necessary for state officials to conduct tedious persona) inspections of the records of physicians or druggists if they wanted to check prescription patterns. The triplicate prescription is intended to curtail the flow of drugs to addicts from medical sources. The procedure also applies to veterinarians in order to prevent the misuse of drugs prescribed for animals. The spend considerably more time on paperwork than would otherwise be necessary. The doctor must now print his name end address, the patient's name and address, the drug prescribed, and so forth. Charles F. O’Connor, a local physician who also works with University Health Service, has called the law “an invasion of privacy and in imposition of a third party between doctor and patient.” “This state effort to control drugs is just a smokescreen for the real drug problem,” he said. encourage the M.D. to use a less adequate drug’.’ in treating patients. When the physician informs his patients of the fact that the prescription will go to Albany, manjr request an alternate drug, one not covered by the triplicate procedure. Dr. O’Connor also dislikes the law because it establishes “just another bureau." In addition, the law does not include some analgesic compounds, such as some codeine compounds, which, if taken in quantity, are as 'n to abt - and addiction as the straight drug A spokesman for the Erie County Medical Society commented: “The Society as a whole has voiced objection to the law.” S. Mouchly Small, professor and chairman of the Psychiatry Department at the State University of Buffalo Medical School, doesn’t “think the law will accomplish what it’s set up to do because it won’t approach those who are really abusing drugs. Those who All out the triplicate are obeying the law to begin with.” “Computerization smacks of Big Brothcrism,” Dr. ... More bureaucracy? “Computerization is supposed to dissuade patients from going to various doctors” to obtain the controlled drugs. Dr. O’Connor explained. He feels this is ridiculous because someone trying to obtain the drugs could use a false name on a visit to a physician, and “unless doctors start checking driver’s licenses,” the state would never know. Dr. O’Connor also criticized the law because “it may procedure is not used for hospital in-patients. The triplicate prescription requires that the physician Small added. Leo A. Kane, an anesthiologist at Children’s Hospital, said he “favors anything which will stop the flow of drugs, including the triplicate prescription if it will help.” However, Dr. Kane said he would like some information about the procedure’s efficiency in curbing drug abuse. Colleges attempt to meet Reichert requirements by Gary Cohn Campus Editor There are many ways to fight for survival. Early this semester, the Colleges vehemently protested the new Prospectus for the Colleges, otherwise known as the Reichert report. The onpe-quiet Faculty-Senate was alive with debate, and hostile feelings flared up from time to time. But despite the persistent protests of many Collegians, the Faculty-Senate overwhelmingly adopted the Reichert Prospectus on February 5. Although a few of the Colleges havy continued their protest by joining forces with the Community/University coalition, most Colleges are now actively attempting to meet the requirements specified in the Reichert Prospectus. Under the Reichert Prospectus, every existing College must be approved by a facility-dominated chartering committee 1, 1975. Those Colleges failing to win approval will cease to exist. by January that faculty could be compensated financially for the hours spent away from their regular departments. Irving Spitzberg, the new Dean of. the Colleges, has been confronting this problem by requesting additional funds from the Administration, seeking volunteer help from the departments, and arranging for departments which allow faculty to teach in the Colleges to suffer no financial hardships. Financial support pledged The Colleges have been pledged a “reasonable” amount of money for the following year, Dr. Spitzberg maintained. He added that the “big fight” for funds will come over the 1975-76 budget because he will be requesting a much larger budget. To overcome departmental reluctance to allow their faculty to teach in the Colleges, Dr. Spitzberg is working on an arrangement whereby each College course taught by a departmental faculty member will be listed by both the College and the department. composed The chartering committee of six faculty, two Collegians and three is expected to begin students deliberations within a few weeks. The - Colleges seek faculty The Reichert Prospectus specifies that charters will be granted only to those units with significant faculty support. Since the Prospectus was passed by the Faculty-Senate on February 5, the Colleges - faculty. Faculty-Senate executive committee and the Collegiate Assembly have veto power over each other’s nominees to that committee. Problems have arisen because the Colleges were not given additional funds with which to pay faculty members. Many College spokesmen termed the situation “Catch 22” because hiring a large number of faculty requires money that will be available only after each College receives its charter. Specifically, Colleges, were expected to purchase “released time” so Pick any six In a letter to Dr. Spitzberg, Senate chairman Gil Moore presented a panel of nine names and asked for agreement on any six from the list.

Philosophy; Robert Gayley, Associate Professor of Physics; Larry Green, Professor of Orthodontics; Curtis Mettlin, Assistant Professor of Sociology; Anne Payne, Associate Professor of English; Myles Slatin, Professor of English; and Yoram Szekely, Associate Librarian. A College spokesman said that “there is nobody particularly offensive on the list.” The College nominees are: Jackie Finley (College B); Susan Cook (College F); and alternate Simon Elmsley (College E). The thrust of the Colleges’ effort has shifted from protests over Reichert report efforts to solicit faculty support for the chartering process. Additionally, some of the Colleges are combining programs or changing the focus of their courses. For instance, College E plans to apply for charter as the College of the Poor. Other Colleges H (Health); B (Arts); to - Carson (Environmental); Mathematical Sciences; Vico (Humanities); and Modern Education are preparing to move to the new Ellicott Complex on the Amherst Campus.

He believes in democratizing the study of literature. This does not mean that Nielson ratings will define course curriculums, but the trend he supports is along those lines. The losers, in terms of traditional literature, will be the English majors, especially the undergraduate English majors. Fiedler, already well-established in the academic community, responded: “I think that English majors have got to think in terms of more varied vocational opportunities.” Experience in Montana Since 1964, Dr. Fiedler has taught at the State University of Buffalo; before that, he was a member of the Montana State University English department for 23 years, and its chairman from 1954-56. Because “other things have a higher priority” for him, he is unenthusiastic about his new bureaucratic and administrative responsibilities. To lighten his load, he intends to have “at least two associate chairmen” and to pursue a policy “to get many more people involved in administration. It makes it easier for everyone." Dr. Fiedler’s other priorities include plans to teach a course in technology, which he describes as a look at “the way technological chance changes the imagination. Another of his activities is writing. The Message Will Come No More, his latest book, is a science fiction novel due in September from Stein and Day. He is just starting work on Freaks, “a big book which will explore the role and meaning of human monsters and prodigies in Western civilization from classical times until now.” Dr. Fiedler’s big crusade is to get a native American (Indian) as a faculty member in his department, citing the large number of native American students attending this University. He favors a loosely-structured quota system (although he doesn’t embrace the term) in hiring faculty. Apparently, he feels the.cultural background of the students at this University should be reflected in the faculty. Perhaps this means we will see a day when roughly one-half of out faculty members are Buffalonians, while the other half will hail from New York City.

With the lack of public protection against cost of living increases, Mr. Reid proposes a “Public Service Commission that will fight for public interest, and not utility interest.” Changes in drug laws Fielding queries during a question-and-answer period, Mr. Reid commented on New York’s new drug laws: “Rockefeller’s first drug program was a billion-dollar failure. There are no adequate early education programs on drug abuse, there are no research programs, and there meaningful, are no comprehensive, rehabilitation programs in this state,” Mr. Reid asserted. feels the present drug penalties do not discriminate between big-time pushers and those users that need help. “I think the present drug laws should He be changed. We must put together a coherent and comprehensive program. There are now IS0,000 hard drug users that need help.” He defines a “comprehensive” program as one which would include higher components of education, research and rehabilitation. Asked about the marijuana laws, Mr. Reid said the penalty should not be any higher than the penalty imposed on a minor for drinking, which presently is a $ 10 fine. Faced with the problem of financing his campaign, Mr. Reid said that some ten individuals have put up a substantial sum, and he has had small many contributors. He has disclosed every penny received for his campaign thus far. He believes he will get support from a large number of small contributors and an independent ethics committee. He claims he has never received any large contribution from any major oil company. Veterans benefits discussed In response to a question about benefits, Mr. Reid veteran informed his listeners that New York State receive one-third the benefits they do in other states. “Something must be done about this,” he said. He also proposed many drug rehabilitation programs for veterans. In the past, he has supported increased medical and veterans in educational benefits for returning Vietnam vets. When asked about prison reform, Mr. Reid declared: “Our bastilles are out of date, and the Attica reforms should be acted on.” He is disturbed by the medical atrocities in prisons, heart attack. “Recidivism in this state is 70 to 80%,” an enormously alarming proportion, except on Rikers Island where there has been an budget, spending less money on things such as malls. “We must create better performance standards,” he said, calling for the modernization of agriculture. and industry Improving agriculture, he feels, will not only improve food supplies, but will be beneficial to attempt at rehabilitation through the environment. citing a case at Sing Sing where a patient was given aspirin for a special training, Mr. Reid explained. “Prisons should give meaningful training for jobs (upon release], and not training for committing more crimes. should There rehabilitation.” Overhaul PSC Mr. Reid had be taken real the Telephone Company and Public Service Commission (PSC) to to what he prevent inflationary rate considers increase. He feels that the PSC should be totally overhauled; “Not a single increase brought before the PSC by either the electric companies or telephone company was turned down.” He also feels that alternative sources of power should be investigated. Voting against the Alaska court pipeline for environmental reasons, Rep. Reid also strongly opposed it because it was detrimental to New York State. “We need a balance between the environment and power,” he said. He proposes two measures for assuring this; 1) A fully-staffed laboratory monitoring mineral, air and water levels to be maintained at all times for information; and Tough 2) fines against corporations violating environmental safety. Long Island Sound and the Finger Lakes were only two examples of the areas in need of environmental protection. New York State spends, according to Mr. Reid, about $13.6 billion per year. To finance all of his new programs, he proposes to reorganize the present Remarking that the growth rate of New York State is only one-quarter that of California, while California’s population exceeds New York by almost two million persons, Mr. Reid plans to “get the growth rate moving. We must also control the cost of living so people will want to live in New York State.” New York has been on the decline for five years” and if it continues this way, “people will not be able to afford to live in New York State.” In addition to investing in modernization of industry and agriculture, Mr. Reid supports and health service highway improvement. In response to the defeat of the transportation bond issue in 1973, Mr. Reid plans to advance the state’s railway system. The defeated issue would have created highway a Buffalo and New York City, but Mr. Reid feels more attention should be paid to the rail system at this time. Mr. Reid is responsible for legislation that won the right to vote by absentee ballot in state primaries. Governor Wilson had moved the June primaries up to September 12, thereby preventing students from voting in the connecting primaries. Voting by absentee ballot now gives this opportunity to disabled vets and senior citizens. Mr. Reid’s philosophy and goals are strongly reflected by his voting record and actions. He has been, “an excellent called Congressman, one of the best” by The New York Times. CHABRD HOUSE ANNOUNCES Passover Seder Reservations are available on Friday for Sat.

The paper has been suspended twice in the past four years. ‘The cartoon was not intended to offend nor demean any religious groups, it was just intended as a sexual satire,” said Managing Editor Steve Simon. “It was printed on the page entitled Mind Ooze,” said Mr. Simon. ‘This page is saved for such weird things, and people were warned earlier not to believe this page.” The cartoonist, Bobby Attanasio, himself a Catholic, did not consider the drawing at all obscene. But many critics disagree. The scope of critics has ranged from CCNY President Robert Marshak to the National Conference of Christians and Jews, which called the drawing “obscene, blasphemous, and.disgusting.” Repercussions The newspaper itself has been threatened with suspension and the student government, acting on demands from President Marshak, has asked for a formal apology. They want “clarification in the form of a retraction,” said Mr. Simon, “and they are giving us until April 16 to do it.” In reaction to this incident, there has been a move to create a supervisory board for the five campus publications. More serious action has been taken by Senator James Buckley (C-R; N.Y.). Responding to a letter he received by the Chaplain of the Catholic Newman Club, he has requested that the civil rights divisions of both the Department of Health, Education and Welfare and the Department of Justice investigate the cartoon as a violation of federal anti-defamation laws. Senator Buckley described the cartoon as a “vicious and incredibly offensive anti-religious drawing.” “What is at stake here,” claimed Senator Buckley, “is not the right of others to criticize an obscene and anti-religious cartoon, but the question of whether anyone has a right to publish such a cartoon in a paper supported by compulsory contributions extracted from the entire student body.” So far no real action has been taken against the Observation Post. The editors do not view the controversy as very serious and do not expect any serious problems. When a similar issue arose before, the Appellate Division of the Second Department in Staten Island ruled that administrators could not interfere with the publication of a student newspaper. This decision was reinforced by a Supreme Court ruling in March 1973, which ordered the University of Missouri to reinstate a journalism student who was expelled for newspaper that was distributing a considered pornographic by the school’s administrators. The editors’ major concern is exactly how to respond to the student government’s demand for an apology.

To the Editor: sH — Presidential tax evasion Just when Americans are struggling over their April income tax returns comes the damaging confirmation that the President of the United States took illegal deductions, failed to declare profits on real estate sales, and generally seized every loophole in the book to pay only minimal income taxes during his first four years in the White House. The fact that scores of illegal deductions were not questioned by the IRS from 1969 to 1972 while petty deductions by working people are closely scrutinized can only suggest that Presidential tax returns are treated differently from those of ordinary citizens. And while the Congressional investigation and the IRS are leaving the — — determination of whether the President committed fraud to the House impeachment inquiry, it is an undeniable double standard of justice that Mr. Nixon is merely being asked to »pay back the $432,787 he owes in unpaid taxes, a violation that would place most citizens in jail for tax evasion. More and more Washington insiders are confidently predicting that the House already has enough votes to impeach Mr. Nixon. Notwithstanding all his other crimes in office, when an American President abuses the Presidency to chisel on his income taxes, he sets a frightening moral example for the rest of the country. That impeachment vote cannot come too soon. § � f I am nothing if not outraged at the malicious treatment of Jews in the April Fool’s Day (April 1st) issue of The Spectrum.

The committee itself is "stacked" while it is coincidence that the outgoing SA President and Faculty-Senate chairman are both sympathetic to Dr. Ketter, certainly Executive Vice-President Albert Somit, who was personally appointed by the President, is in no position to candidly criticize his superior. But the committee can overcome this handicap if it seriously weighs the input of every campus group and individual it receives. The committee makes only a recommendation to the SUNY Board of Trustees, which could be ignored or treated as a rubber stamp.

As a matter of fact three of our very own girls were the very first female streakers at U.B. and were received by a hearty cheer from the crowd. We are very proud that our girls brought it upon themselves to represent the women of U.B. and resent being referred to as “finks” by anyone, especially those at*Buffalo State College. Michael Hall Girls �Apartment advice Looking Glae& To the Editor: This letter is written in the hope that present and future tenants will be more thorough in their search for apartments this spring than my roommates and I were last year. We wanted “out of the dorms” and thus concluded that anything was better than a dorm. I hope the prospective tenants will benefit from the mistakes we made and that the following guidelines win help you make a decision you will not regret after signing on the dotted line. When looking over an apartment, do not overlook the present tenants. An extra 10 minutes’ conversation with them can tell you more than an hour jn the apartment or with the landlord. Why aren’t they renting again? This is a critical point to consider. Often the landlord shows the apartment and rushes you through. Stay those extra minutes with a conversation with the present tenants without the presence of the landlord. Is the apartment furnished? Chances are it will be and note exactly how many pieces and what kind are included with the apartment. Often tenants bring their own lamps, desks, tables and chairs and a weir-fumished looking living room may become a bare one without coffee table, couch, chair, lamp, end table, TV, pictures, rug and knickknacks. If there are four beds, Ije sure there are 4 mattresses and 4 boxsprings. Some people like to sleep with only a mattress on the floor if you want to sleep in a normal bed (legs & all) find out where the rest of the bed is and what condition it is in. Be sure to inspect the kitchen and bathroom fixtures. Stove and oven do they work properly? Turn on a burner does it catch the flame quickly? Is there excessive gas odor? Refrigerator and freezer do they work properly? How often must the freezer compartment be defrosted? When defrosting does the melted ice drain onto the floor as our refrigerator does? Check the door handle, hinges on the various compartments do they work and arc they likely to fall off? The sink check the,faucets. Do they leak? Many leaks can be fixed by a single washer make sure the landlord installs that single washer. If you take apart the plumbing, you’re responsible for putting it back. Check the sink in the b.athroom. Note the shower stall how forcefully does the water spray frpm the shower head? Check drainage. Spend a minute noting how many lighting fixtures per room. Which ones remain when the present tenants leave? Note any wiring sticking out from the walls. Not only is it an ugly decoration, but it’s - - - - — - — — — dangerous. Since you’ll be looking at your potential apartments during these cold months, ask about storm windows. Some landlords do not furnish storm windows and use sheets of plastic which have to be nailed around the inside of th window. They do not cut down your gas bill by any measurable means. Remember, most thermostats are located..in hallways or living rooms. Bedrooms are at the extremities of the apartment. When you set the thermometer at 70 degrees, the hallway, bathroom and living room arc the heated rooms. Temperatures in the bedrooms where students spind most of their time are several degrees colder. Buffalo winds rip right through old houses and a single pane of glass does not give much resistance. Check the attic and basements. Are they fire hazards? What docs the house look like in comparison to the others on the street? Take a good look. How many entrances are there to your apartment? Are there locks on all the doors? There are seven doors to my apartment on two of which there are locks, one which the landlord does not give the tenants a key for. Remember, almost all you own is in that apartment much less you, yourself. Finally, have legal aid check the lease. Even if it gets a clean bill of health from them, make sure you know exactly what is expected of you and the landlord. Some leases list just duties of the tenants, but no responsibilities of the landlord. One last word —. Student Association has a tenants’ file of landlords and apartments. Use it. In 205 Norton is a folder evaluating the area’s hpusing and landlords. The information is supplied by the tenants for the students and no one else. You’ll know who to avoid and who to prefer. Hopefully, you’ve read through this letter. If so, I think you’ll be much better prepared to follow up on inspecting apartments. Remember, your lease runs for 9-12 months, and you’ll be responsible for what happens during that time. There are a lot of very good landlords and landladies in the area. Don’t be charmed by a smooth talker. Good luck. — - Robin Ward The Spectrum Vol. 24, No. 70 Friday, Editor-in-Chief 5 April by Barry Kaplan Through the unique characteristics of our mass media universe, our ears, eyes and basic sensibilities have been assaulted by a barrage of diverse and conflicting reports pertaining to supposedly simple and inconsequential events. Especially during a period when the news seems quite stale, or when there is no news at all, the media has to fill space by creating and sensationalizing items that would normally remain buried in some obscure police file or trivia contest. However, each publication creates its own unique version essentially rewriting the news story or interpreting it in order to make it almost impossible for the reader to find out what - really happened. For instance, take this newsworthy item hot off the AP wire: “In Buffalo, a spotted black-and-white dog bit an administrator of the local Student Union. The official who was unidentified, is in satisfactory condition in Meyer Hospital suffering from shock and a bruised ego.” Now, let us investigate how various purveyors of the printed word recreate this incident for the slavering masses. The Spectrum: “Today a nefarious plot by Bernard Gelbaum was uncovered as a high official of the Administration was brutally assaulted by killer dogs, trained and fed by this naughty man in Hayes Hall. This incident occurred on either the 4th, 5th or 6th of April, and is another example of the calculated campaign to discredit the opponents of some person or another. At this point we are really not too sure of the facts, however . . .” The organ of the Progressive Labor Party or any other of those supposedly radical groups: “Another example of revolutionary brotherhood occurred today when one of our oppressed minority groups struck a blow for freedom and revolted against its bourgeoisie masters. This herioc act is supported by all of the oppressed classes as an act of class consciousness, and as an attempt to overthrow the chains that bind us to a decadent, fascist, imperialist, and brutal system. This act is the first blow in the general worldwide revolution against the ruling classes, and we must all rally around and support the courage of the dog. We will have a protest march today leaving from Norton Hall in order to demonstrate worker/student solidarity with this oppressed dog, now languishing in a tiny, cold, dirty, capitalist, dog pound.” The printed rag of the Young American for Freedom would probably say this: ‘Today a blow was struck for individuality and freedom of expression. Untrammeled by stifling government laws, an enterprising mulatto broke all the rules and vented his feelings about certain regulations by going to the lazy bureaucrat and telling him exactly what he felt. As Americans, we have been buried under a rising tide of socialistic subversive legislation designed to weaken our moral fiber, destroy basic values, and create an undue reliance upon Government to carry out the wishes of the people. As Americans, we must support this brave action as one recourse of our people to radical, indecent college professors. Of course we musn’t forget our professional journals, for without these bizarre manifestations occur. Let us see how three so-called intellectual digests handle this matter. The American Historical Review; “A recent manifestation of inherent societal tensions revealed itself on one or our centers of higher learning in a unique and particular manner. (1) A descendant of the wild wolves that once roamed North America reverted to its wild characteristics in a violent attack reminiscent of atavistic peasant rebellions that seek to restore an older and outmoded form of society. (2) This attack uncovers many historical tensions and trends which other historians have ignored due to their rigid and outmoded concepts of historiography. (3) For instance ...” 1. See The Rin Tin Tin and Lassie, eds., The History of Canus Lupus and College (1967, Obscure Press) 2. Bernard Gelbaum, The Meaning of Obsolescence in Peasant Societies (1984, Arrogant Press) 3. Alfred E. Neuman, The Meaning of History in the Mind of a Two Year Old (1956, Juvenile Insipity Press) How about a journal devoted to psychology: “The Freudian, Jungian conceptual metamorphosis evinced in the lateral arterial framework of the inner verbal slavering control center, is a methodological tool to understand the inherent tensions resulting from too many children, an uncaring father, promiscuous mother, and loo much responsibility at an easily-influenced age, resulting in usage of verbal devices for hostile acts. One method of treating this common affliction is the use of a binding, restrictive, leather protective device to ward off memories of this unhappy puppyhood, and convince the subject that inner frustrations should not be transferred to symbolic father figures. This device, colloquially titled a ‘muzzle,” is .. The topper would probably be a journal devoted to sociology, and if any of my readers have ever attempted to read a sociology text, yotl' will understand why. For instance: “Societal regulations and norms developed in singular, even plural fashion consistently reflect dysfunctional variations in values and mores. In rigorous methodological fashion in incipient sociologists must scientifically coordinate the dysfunctional/functional coordinate morality, aware of the redundant puppyhood mentality that bites through poor research. As Feber, Maber and LaVerne stated it is quite inconsistent with societal values for canine statistical middlings to disregard verbal assumed commands and ...” Of course 1 have left out the Daily News ; however, if you go to college and still read that right-wing rag, then “Shame, Shame, on you.” 1974 Howie Kurtz — Managing Editor Janis Cromer Business Manager Dave Simon Shayne O'Neill Asst.

Page nine . �. f Infant organization NYSA faces delays withstands all odds Commentary “The New York Student Association (NYSA) is the beginning of the most effective student union ever witnessed in the state,” observed one representative who attended the organization’s third conference lasf wfcek. The NYSA '(formerly New York Student Lobby) held its third conference at -Ithaca College, emphasizing unity and communication among its 25 member colleges. The NYSA wants to form a lasting and effective student organization dealing with all student interests, starting with the decriminalization of marijuana. In the past, organizations similar to NYSA such as College Institute Student Government Association (CISGA), a group of representatives from two year colleges, have originated and died, due to lack of cooperation and financial support. ‘They quibble over insignificant matters at conferences, such as Robert’s Rules of Order and how many votes a college should get,” asserted David Westgate, a representative from Broome Community College. However, members of the NYSA feel their group will not die out. “Financially, it would be an advantage in the long run, for a school to invest in NYSA’s causes. The school would be receiving the benefits of the reform NYSA is fighting for,” Mr. Westgate explained. - Wide range of issues Representatives to the conference are optimistic students will be willing to contribute their financial support because they feel the NYSA is fighting not only to benefit the students, but it is fighting to protect the students. NYSA is working for open transcript files, tuition assistance legislation, student voter registration at local colleges, student say in tenure, the repeal of taxes on textbooks, and the decriminalization of the marijuana laws. They are fighting politically, claim NYSA supporters. All NYSA member colleges pledge money in order to establish a lobbying force in Albany to influence with state legislators. Other organizations have never done this, NYSA organizers contend. NYSA vows not to make the mistake of limiting its efforts to one objective, claiming to be concerned with all matters concerning students. “Organizations dealing with one subject only die quickly, because their scope is narrow. As soon as the one subject is settled, the organization folds,” Mr. Westgate pointed out. and poor organization by Jenny Cheng Spectrum Staff Writer It is the intent of the New York Student Association (NYSA) to lobby in the State Legislature for the benefit of students across the state. This organization will serve public and private universities alike. The intent is indeed commendable, but it would be a shame to see this organization “fizzle out” due to the lack of cooperation and participation from the State’s student population. However, if the NYSA continues to experience the same lack of organization and unnecessary delays in action as it has in the past year, its fate will be the same as those organizations preceding it, who are now defunct. On February 1-3, 1974, the NYSA was to have held a major conference “establishing courses of action in relation to federal and state and community issues.” However, no such course of action has been initiated as of last weekend’s conference. At that conference, representatives met for three hours to write and distribute “statements of intent” and interest questionnaires to colleges throughout the state, a task which should have taken place last year before the conferences. Discussion of the marijuana issue has not taken place yet. It appears the NYSA has fallen behind in its promises. Is this due to irresponsible, ineffective leadership? It would appear so. An organization such as the NYSA could very well be “the most effective student union seen in the state,” as long as it reaches the student population first before a plague of impatient disgust overwhelms them. Otherwise, students may forget the NYSA while it continues to stall for “organization” time. UUAB TONIGHT LA COLLECTIONEUSE Conference Theatre Dir. Rohmer France - Organization, community stressed The NYSA are attending to establish strong communication between colleges. Institutions such as Columbia University and Broome Community College, are “region heads” which contact student governments of schools in their respective areas. Newsletters and information-gathering questionnaires are distributed and returned to Ithaca College. Each member college elects a representative to send to NYSA conferences 3-4 times a year. The NYSA is also assisting smaller colleges with problems concerning the establishment of a local student government. “The real strength of the organization lies within the spirit of those involved,” concluded Kenny May, coordinator of NYSA. “We believe students ofNew York State can be united.” COFFEEHOUSE KENNY HALL Norton Union - 9:00 p.m and the Name award winning film "GRAVEL SPRINGS FIFE & DRUM Address MIDNITE SHOW Conference Theatre - Saturday April 6 State CHLOE IN THE AFTERNOON Conference Theatre Dir.

With help from the director, each actor must use the stereotvpe he is given as the role's superstructure a point of instant definition of character for the audience then flesh out the character (develop an interesting individual) in physical and verbal style using his own comic imagination. Finally, he must use his talents as a polished actor to make the role consistent. Returning to Buffalo after his part in last year's Child's Play is Donald Moffat as the miser. Although there's been something of a fuss made over him, I caution you not to believe it. He wasn't so very hot last season, and I maintain he's no better this time around. His trouble is not a lack of enthusiasm or concentration Moffat really throws himself into the part. Nor is it a question of technique he has a bagful of actors' tricks that vitalize small snatches of the play. His experience as an actor goes far to make his characterization consistent. — — — — Skin flint Moffat's'problem is his overall concei it of the miserl stereotype. The miser is cheap, conceited, and sensitive about his age; y'know, a proto-Jack Benny. Like Benny's flawless comic creation, the miser's should be broad and rich, full of THE cMISER by Jay Boyar Spectrum Arts Editor mugging Moffat's portrayal is broad, but it's also hokey. The reason is that he pretty much accepts the miser's characteristics without looking for a reason behind them. Moliere's comedy can be just comedy for the audience, but it has got to be more for the actor and the sensitive observer. Maybe the miser's concern for the money he's buried beneath the ground is a substitute for the lost love of his (never-mentioned and presumably-dead) wife. Certainly, his sick love of money is no more intense than his cook's obsession with food or the young lovers' enchantment with each other. Moffat makes his miser crotchety with a lust for money; the miser's real feeling should be more like a displaced love. When, in the second act, his money is stolen, instead of throwing himself around the stage and ranting in a thinly comic frenzy, the miser should evoke a touching, confused pite tragic relief, as it were. The miser, after all, is not just an abstract, crotchety old man. The reason why he has a perverted love of money is the key to the play. Without the tension this key provides, Moffat is, finally, boring. 1974 seems to be shaping up as 'The Year of the Codger" at Studio Arena Theatre (SAT). Irver since January, the playhouse has presented nothing but comedies centered around old men. First, there was That Championship Season (strictly speaking, a tragicomedy), then Flint, next There's A Girl In My Soup, and now until April 21, Moliere's The Miser. In this last case, not only is the miser an old man, but The Miser, written in 1668, is an old play. Usually, SAT presents a play or two per year that is something of a "hoary classic," and usually that play is something by Shakespeare. In foregoing Shakespeare this year in favor of Moliere, SAT has made a rather cautious decision. The decision is a shrewd one because: (a) SAT has always done Shakespeare poorly, (b) Moliere's The Miser is a more fun for everyone while Shakespeare Tough-guy comedy (despite his comedies) is most often considered serious As Valere, lover of the miser's daughter Elise, Leon theatre, (c) one problem in presenting Shakespeare to Russom is headed wrong 100%. It is impossible to like Valere modern, non-literary audiences is the alien, difficult style of or to understand him as he is played by Russom. Where he English he used. Moliere's French plays must be translated should express love for Elise, Russom is arrogant. Where he anyway, so they can be "legitimately" translated into should be playful and crafty, he seems malicious, hateful. At easily-understood English, (d) while Moliere's reputation is one point in the play, the miser asks him, "Don't you blush not so big as Shakespeare's, he is sufficiently recognized so for your crime?" referring to his suspicion that Valere has that The Miser can fill the bill as this season's "hoary filched his moneybox. Valere thinks that the miser is upset classic." because the young man "seduced" his daughter. The real crime, though, is Russom's poor performance.

Speaking of the characters themselves, critic Eric Bently has said that in much comedy, "the actors always play the same roles: Mr. A always plays the imbecile old man, Mr. B always the boastful soldier, Mr. C the romantic lover, Mr. D the clown, and so on." 9I �4 Commentary r Oscars: boring showcase for the 'best'of the movie industry piece gown that covered her from scalp to toe or Cher who wore a scarf over her breasts, a train down her back, and something hideous in her hair. Will you run out to see what these people will do in their next movie if they can be so outlandish in "real life"? by Mark Kinchanbaum Spectrum Arts Staff I was bored and disgusted after devoting three hours to watching this year's Academy Awards. Why was this so? The show was supposedly put together and sponsored by the "best" people in the motion picture industry. So why Behind the wean when doing her gardening. A couple of the presentees seemed bombed out of their minds. Without the necessary glamour, the awards lose their appeal and the show becomes boring. Still writing I'm waiting for the day when Americans Win refuse to watch the Academy Awards because they will realize that a full night's rest is more beneficial than a sure guarantee of getting bored annually. Only then, when it no longer becomes profitable to gain publicity through the awards will thay have any true worth. So the day when the Academy rents out a Church basement rather than the L.A. Music Center for the presentations will be the day when an Oscar may become a genuine recognition of fine work. was I bored? Why did a streaker receive the biggest laugh of the evening when professional comedians and writers were hired? Or was he a last minute addition to give the show a boost? Why did the rpikes squeak when Dyan Cannon sang if the "best" audio men in the industry belong to the Academy? Why was the picture often blurry when cameramen who "know their stuff" were available? What is wrong with Hollywood's annual glamour event? To begin with, the show is pretentious. Supposedly it is aired in order to reward excellence in motion pictures and to encourage future fine work in the industry. But is this so? Showy If this is the show's function, why is a television extravaganza necessary? My doubts of the event's validity were immediately nurtured when the President of the Academy of Motion Pictures opened the show with a justification of the whole kit and caboodle. The show ended with an abridged rehashing of the same by Jack Lemmon. My doubts increased when I realized that the awards most viewers want to see are saved till the end. Then I realized that Tatum O'Neal was nominated for Best Supporting Actress when in actuality, she was the leading lady of Paper Moon. Was the Academy afraid to honor a little girl for an outstanding performance and thereby upstage some adult actresses? My doubts peaked when I became aware how few of the nominees even bother to show up. The reason why I finally came to this conclusion. The awards are given for no other reason than to promote the movie industry. In addition, the viewer has to realize that the show is Tiger. He's already got a Rolls. I saw it when he drove up.

Kit electronics and even kit turntables.were popular, and several prestige manufacturers such as Klipsch and McIntosh, offered some components in kit form. In fact, hi-fi in general was considered more of a "hardware" hobby than- a musical one because of all the individual work that was associated with it. with the renewed cultural emphasis on do-it-yourself projects and the economic .imperative of personal cost-cutting, kits seem to be gaining attention in the hi-fi marketplace; and manufacturers of kit-type equipment are currently reporting increased sales. Connect wire 'A' to rod 'B'. For many people, kit-building is fun and enjoyable, and there is much to recommend it. But it is important to money. This is often true. But there ere always trade-offs in some other area. For instance, Dynaco products, when purchased pre-assembled, are warranteed for one year, parts and labor. Dynaco kits are only warranteed for parts. This means that if your kit doesn't operate properly (unless it's due to a defective part), you must pay a service charge to have the kit repaired. Another manufacturer, Harman-Kardon, charges an "hourly rate" to repair kit-versions of their Citation 12 power amplifier that have been incorrectly assembled. The case ip which the matter of actual savings becomes questionable is in discussing "Heathkits," manufactured by the Heath Company of Benton Harbor, Michigan. Although Heathkits offer the beginner excellent benefits apart from cost considerations (local service centers and free advice on any product), few Heathkits offer any advantage over wisely-chosen, comparably-priced pre-built components. For example For example, the Heath AR-29 receiver, a very competent unit, is priced at $299.95; discounts are unavailable. This Heath model could be considered more or less comparable in price to the Sherwood S-7900A receiver, which is available for about $305 at any decent mail-order ... "Sherwood's S-7900A, judged a better buy than a comparably-priced Heathkit." In the sixties, inexpensive, pre-built, acoustic suspension speaker systems were being manufactured in increasing numbers, and pre-assembled audio electronics had become big business aiming at a wide market. Although kits did not actually lose much ground in this period, the expanding understand that kits are not the simple and clear-cut matters of "do-it-yourself, save, and feel the pride of accomplishment" (how much pride is there in following instructions?) that the catalogs suggest. One of the notions about kits that the catalogs tend to play up is that kits save house. Vet the AR-29 by Heath has only a little more than half the power of the Sherwood unit at similar distortion levels; and the tuner of the Sherwood S-7900A would seam, by any measurable characteristics, to be more than a shade better than AR-29's. The Sherwood model also includes a year-long warranty on parts and labor (plus two additional years on parts, essentially a useless condition as labor is the real expense in any repair) against a 90-day Heath warranty on parts. Again, remember that the Heath unit is in kit form. There is a service charge for the repair of kits constructed incorrectly, although the repair is free if a Heath part is the cause of any malfunction. But 90 days after any repair, you are again responsible for any problems that may arise. Still, the top-of-the-line Heath receiver, the AR-1500 at $379.95, ranks as a superb value. It has been referred to as the finest receiver available ($1200 Japanese imports notwithstanding) by several independent sources, including the major consumer journal and the Stereophile magazine, which lists only two receivers in its recommended products page; the AR-1500 and its predecessor, the AR-15. Therefore keep in mind that only selectively chosen kits can actually save you money, and any kit implies a commensurate sacrifice or risk in terms of potential repair costs.

RECORDS Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen Live From Deep in the Heart of Texas (Paramount) "Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen are heroes in Austin. I'd always wondered how they missed out being heroes in San Francisco, but I guess they don't have the coke-dealer flashstyle ambience going for them, and I guess that's what it takes." —Ed Ward-Creem. Old Ed sure enough hit the proverbial nail on the head that time, cuz Cody's moderate acceptance in The City, as compared to say, lackeys like the New Riders, tends to puzzle me also. But then again, it ain't easy to become top boy in S.F. I mean. I've watched Nate and Rick play simply astounding hoops for years and receive nothin' more than empty seats and pats on the rump. I guess the Bay Area folk are too busy into reaching that higher the ground, and pounding hardwood and rock 'n' roll just don't fit into that game plan. Oh the very few bands not to lose of their original musical well. But back to the beginning. Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen are heroes in Austin at least, and their new Ip Live From Deep In The Heart Of Texas, was recorded just that way at The Armadillo World Headquarters, the home of good rockin' and Lone Star beer in Austin. It's always said that the best Cody is live Cody, so it shouldn't come as no real surprise to ya that this fourth release by the Commander & Co. is their best yet. This band is the only one sight direction Live contains much of Cody's best, previously-unrecorded work and strikes a nice balance between their country and rock roots. On the C&W side, "Seeds and Stems," "Sunset On The Sage" and "Crying Time" keep things sane, but when the boys decide to rock, look out!!! "Good Rockin' Tonite" sets the tone in an explosive fashion and Johnny Horton's "I'm Coming Home" and Gene Vincent's "GIT IT" sure do keep the juices flowing. "Oh Momma Momma," an original, shows off Billy C. Farlow and Bill Kircher as true descendents of Sun Records, while their rendition of "Riot in Cellblock No. 9" features the plucking today doing justice to rockabilly music a'tall. Their country tunes aren't third-rate burnt-out psychedelic mutations such as those served up by certain better-left-unsaid bands, and when they rock out, they ain't doing a parody of Gene Vincent or Carl Perkins, they're paying tribute. These boys' hearts are pure, their roots are intact, and they're unique by virtue of being one of 29-year-old perfect master himself. Commander Cody, in his best vocalizin' since "Hot Rod Lincoln." This particular piece of vinyl climaxes with another Farlow original, 'Too Much Fun" ("too much fun, too much fun, one or two things / ain’t never done, I ain’t never had too much fun"). and a smokin' version of Roy Orbison's "Mean Woman Blues." Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen specialize in energy, and, in the words of Brother James, if ya got ants in your pants and need to dance, this band is yours. And better still, they'll be appearing in Clark Gym on Saturday night. The best Cody is live Cody. Don't miss it. T.B. Sheets — Todd Rundgren Todd (Warners) Beatnik jive a la the Jetsons. Post-Orwellian o'd: and McLuhan sits astride his electronic extension and murmurs giggly, because this here Todd the Mod has lashed his greasy heart to the bow of the machine and is singing Kaddish for the Last Revolution. The Wizard the star, true: he's all that and a lot more. Rotwang toying with his city. Todd's the time swimmer lossing all the bening evil of the cog-god. Let him into your electricity you won't be sorry. And if you can't do that, the least you could do is cut off your ear and set it besides your vinyl translator and listen to: Todd. He takes on technology and breathes the technics of mechanism circularly and without abandon, creating the least likely tape-looped lithurgies you'll ever hear. Hymnals to protomorphic insensibility. Todd's not afraid to take us along on his nova bivouac. S'matter a fact, he's always too busy trying to encourage us to traipse along for the ride. Like a television set with the heebie-jeebies, Todd's bravura leaves you in the throes of terminal-sonically-induced-aphasia. But enough of this metaphoric whizbang! If you consider that A Wizard, a True Star is longer than this here record if you consider the sublime beauty of "Hello It's Me" on the first Nazz Ip if you consider the lackadaisical manner with which he tosses off lines like: "No, no we need more humanity" if consider the obvious commercial potential of titles like "Everybody's going to Heaven/King Kong Reggae" or "Number One Lowest Common Denominator" or "Heavy Metal Kids" then you'll have to consider this an inferior effort by the Runt. On the other hand or other side of your frontal lobes if yo' gassed on genius and skinny beings in skin-tight space suits with green, blue, white, prismatic hair, and a geetar which performs surgery on your soul, then you'll obviously enjoy this Todd venture. As for this here, android, android, android than you I'm the kinda person what remembers the days of the beat scene, Hubert Selby.

The series of images deals with the people who live on Custer Street, all of whom are found sitting in the same chair. Forman's concern for how the people react in front of the camera and project themselves from that chair may reveal some understanding about them as people. If you take the time to look at the images and let them come to you on their own terms, the intent of the subject will approach you on some level of understanding. For instance, standing in front of a mirror, realizing that you're being recorded or sensing that you're being watched, brings about an awareness and projection of self. Stepping back and viewing the work as a whole piece, you realize that the people that Forman photographed all reacted to the photographer. Contrast this to the picture machine that yields four tiny portraits for 50 cents. In that situation the subject reacts only to the camera, the box that he is sitting in, and himself. When viewing this form of image, you should be aware of the conditions under which the influences of the environment, the photographer, image was recorded and the realization that one is being recorded.

The oarsmen, who open their season tomorrow in Ithaca, have had to cope with cold and icy conditions as they prepared for the upcoming season. The Bulls, who row at the West Side Rowing Club, have had to curtail some of their practice sessions because of ice in the Black Rock Channel. Since the boats are only % of an inch thick, a single piece of ice could cause irreparable damage. Coach Bob Uhl will be at the helm for ,diis second year as skipper of the oarsmen. While weather, men, each of whom has at least tyrtS years experience each. Senior Larry Palys was a member of the 1971 West Side Rowing Club national championship squad, while Buffalo'will have both varsity and junior varsity boats attempting to improve on last year’s performance. The Bulls finished first in the lightweight four man race, and second in the lightweight eight at the Metropolitan Regatta in New York City. Crew, like many other sports; has divisions according to the size of the participants. A lightweight crew may not average over 1SS pounds per man with no single member over 160 pounds. A heavyweight boat has no restrictions. While the usual crew of the boat includes eight rowers and a coxswain, there are individual, pairs and four man races at certain regattas (meets). The Bulls varsity boat includes eight bowman Tom Mazzone and Charlie Sickler have competed in the Royal Canadian Henley Regatta. Five of the eight members on the varsity boat are returning from last year’s squad. Coxswain Mark tohen also returns to command the varsity boat. The coxswain is the quarterback of the boat as he steers and calls out commands to the rowers. of years. It just doesn’t happen overnight," added Uhl. The Bulls have been working out this past winter, running at Memorial Auditorium. A recent addition to the team has been the ergometer, a strength measuring machine. It has been utilized to get the maximum amount of work from the oarsmen. DilUngham Cup The Bulls will be competing with Canisius, Buffalo State and Ithaca for The Dillingham Cup when they open their season tomorrow. Coach Uhl noted that Ithaca might have an advantage since they have been working with an indoor tank, which simulates actual water conditions indoors. Water moves in the tank, but the boat does not. The Bulls will also make appearances at the Buffalo State Invitational, Mercyhurst Invitational, and Metropolitan Championships before going to the Dad Vail National Championships in Added experience Uhl, commenting on the squad prospects for the coming season, noted that the extra experience had made this year’s team better than last year’s. “Last year’s team is back except for two members,” said Uhl. ‘The experience means so much because of the amount of time we have to teach guys to row. Finesse and timing are key factors. Also, building up endurance has to be done over a couple Philadelphia. Bullsfacing crucialroad trip by Dave Geringer Sports Editor “Danny Gorman is our highest hitter in the outfield and he’s-hitting .260. I still feel that I have to go with fJimJ Zadora in center field, Gorman in left and probably Joe Scaffidi in right. Scaffidi hit .333 down south with three RBIs, and he just did a good job. We just have to come through and hit the ball,” Monkarsh added. Hoping to improve their record, the baseball Bulls will embark on a five-game, four-day road trip that may be crucial to their hopes for the NCAA District II playoffs. Buffalo will face Fairfield today and tomorrow, before meeting Seton Hall twice on Sunday and Princeton on Monday afternoon. “I feel that we’ve got to split with Fairfield, Low ERA Niewczyk, who will start one of Sunday’s beat Seton Hall and beat Princeton,” said Coach Bill Monkarsh. “We’ll go with [Bill] Lasky and [John] pivotal contests, posted a 2.03 ERA in Florida, Buszka against Fairfield, [Jim] Riedel and [Jim] second among Buffalo hurlers. The southpaw walked Niewczyk against Seton Hall and [Mike] Dean nine batters in 13-1/3 innings, a comparatively low against Princeton. Niewczyk was the best pitcher total for the Bull staff. Buffalo pitchers have yielded down south, and Riedel still has the best potential a total of 93 walks in 82 innings, a horrendous total. on the staff'if he’ean put it together,” continued Riedel and Lasky “paced” the staff with 16 free Monkarsh, emphasizing the importance of the Seton passes each, while Wayne Fry and Buszka each issued Hall doubleheader. The Bull mentor stressed the importance of a hitting attack. “We’ve got to get some good hitting and some good defense,” Monkarsh commented. 14. Fry “achieved” his total in only five innings. Buffalo’s' staff ERA was a miserable 6.47.

For example, there’s emphasis on group medicine and preventive medicine, and the growing specialty of “family physician.” Whatever your interest, there are few specialties which are not being practiced in today’s Air Force. The physician starting his practice in civilian life has to take into account the cost of setting up an office. The physician commencing his practice in the Air Force does not. He finds his office established for him. Supplies and equipment readily available. He has many options available to him when treating patients. For example, he can consult with Air Force specialists. He also has referral to other Air Force facilities via aeromedical evacuation. Last, but not least, are the satisfactions that come with having the opportunity for regular follow-ups, and a missed appointment rate that is practically nil. Whether you are already a physician, or soon to become one, you might find it extremely interesting to find out what the Air Force has to offer. We think it could be a real eye-opener.

It’s a period of your life the Air Force can make considerably easier with comfortable salary and living conditions. Creature comforts aside, the Air Force offers professional advantages. Besides receiving training in your own specialty, you’d be in contact with physicians in all of the medical specialties.

The supplemental budget consists of items not funded in the regular budget but later deemed worthy of financing. Although uncertain about the exact figures involved, Dr. Neal surmised that several hundred thousand dollars would be the proper purchase necessary to equipment. He added that if the money comes through as expected in the supplemental budget, “there will be some discomfort” in equipping the Amherst facilities on schedule. The “shelf items” (such as projectors and movie screens) usually take by Amy Dunkin Campus Editor If sufficient funds are not appropriated within the next few weeks, the opening of several new facilities on the Amherst Campus will be postponed indefinitely. Presently, the State Division of Budgets, which must approve all state expenditures, has placed a freeze on capital funds which would pay for equipping the Creative Crafts Center, the performance theater, and the large lecture hall in the Ellicott Complex. John Neal, assistant vice-president for Facilities Planning, is optimistic thit the • v>r.v 30 days for delivery and can be obtained without any trouble, he said. However, he explained that “special order items” which average 120 days for delivery would arrive sometime after the fall semester had begun, delaying the opening of the Crafts Center. In the event that funds for equipment voted down in the supplemental budget, Dr. Neal said the University would ask for them immediately in next year’s capital budget. are One staff member of the Crafts Center pointed out some of the repercussions of postponing the opening of the Crafts Center. “The Communications College [crafts] is looking to merge with College B [arts],” she said. “If we can’t open the center in September, College B will be on the new campus and Communications will be stuck here.” Howie Schapiro, Student Association Student Affairs coordinator, criticized the Albany budget officials for not considering the particular problems in the transition from the Main Street Campus to Amherst. “The freeze affects us differently than other SONY schools that aren’t in the construction phase,” he said. “They will put the students in the Ellicott dorms without providing facilities. The first chance the State gets of correcting the situation, it doesn’t live up to its responsibilities,” Mr. Schapiro added. In spite of the concern on the part of University officials, a spokesman for the State Division of the Budget was unfamiliar with any freeze in capital funds, for Amherst or otherwise. After questioning a number of officials in his department, he reported that no one he had talked to “had even heard of the Ellicott Complex.” History 100 Multi-media approach to history by Richard Korman Contributing Editor John Wayne was never worse. He would strut here and swagger there to deliver one tired cliche after another. Instead of the usual quarterhorse, the Duke is astride his favorite bulldozer; fighting off the ‘Japs’ on some South Pacific island and clearing the way for the United States Air Force at the same time. Wayne is Captain of the Navy’s “Fighting Seabees” (Construction Battalion C.B.’s Get it?), and is killed in the midst of inspired heroics, and why am I required to watch this insipid movie anyway? Because, according to the film notes, the ‘Fighting Seabees’ is “a fascinating document on the attitudes and concerns felt by America’s leaders about the suitability of American culture for total war. This is really a reverse Western whose message is that customary American anarchism, no matter how heroic, must give way to military discipline. "That’s why. - - « Instructive movies And that’s pretty much the way History 100, professor William Allen’s noble experiment, treats its impressive array of World War II films. “The Fighting Seabees is incredibly instructive as to American attitudes at the time,” commented Dr. Allen. Movies, along with a variety of other techniques, are integral parts of the course for the insights they offer into their era. History 100 is a multi-disciplinary, multi-media look at World War II. It combines lectures, seminars, readings, guest speakers and films in an attempt to provide students with aovel approach to what can easily be a dull, boring topic. All aspects of the Second World War are considered through a diversity of methods to give the student an understanding and empathy for that period. Although it is very much the result of his hard work and preparation, Dr. Allen denies total credit for the course. The History Department’s Undergraduate Program Committee originally recommended that a new-style introductory level course be offered, Dr. Allen explained. He then observed some of the methods employed in a Williams College course which stresses historical techniques. “I’ve come to believe that this University is woefully underdeveloped with respect to teaching,” Dr. Allen maintained. He stressed the importance of employing new techniques in teaching; Many instructors want to enrich their courses, he explained, but simply don’t know how to go about it. “Everything 1 found out, I had to find out by myself,” he said. Funded last year largely by a State University of New York (SUNY) Research Committee grant. History 100 will have to depend mostly on money from within the department next semester. Dr. Allen is fairly confident that the money can be raised. Last semester’s enrollment of 130 was something of a disappointment to those involved with the course. A computer error which made it appear as if students would have to spend most of their waking hours in class if they A colloquium on History 100, last semester’s multi-media experimental course on Worl War II, will be held Thursday in Room 4 Diefendorf HaO at 1:30 p.m. Problems with the course and possible future solutions will be discussed. There will also be a slide and tape presentation. The Colloquium is sponsored by the Council of Undergraduate History Students and professor William Allen. All are invited. registered for History 100 kept enrollment well below the hoped-for 300 students. This year, many more participants will be required to justify the rather expensive experiment. “Unless we get a higher enrollment,” Dr. Allen warned, “I don’t know if we can go on.” FDR to Hitler’s mother Actual demands upon the student were not great. Required reading consisted of four books, including the Painted Bird, a novel by Jerzy Kosinski, and Victor Frankl’s Man’s Search for Meaning, a philosophical approach life for concentration camp victims. Lectures and films, along with a film reaction diary, are mandatory. Seminars for question-and-answer discussions are entirely optional. There is a final essay examination and a term project or paper required. Term projects have ranged from simulated radio broadcast recordings to original sculpture exhibitions. Dr. Allen’s lectures provide a necessary background to all the other materials presented.Tie is eloquent without being condescending, and usually interesting, too. One problem Dr. Allen acknowledges is the attempt to present top much material in a single lecture, but he promises to take that into account next semester. Each week supplementary readings are distributed for discussion at the seminar meetings. They range from one of FD.R.’s famous ‘fireside chats,’ to Winston Churchill’s speech to the British House of Commons on the occasion of 'the Dunkirk evacuation, to Bemto —continued on paga 13— �"*111 members of the Colleges to participate in IRC if they paid t no fee at all. »} Busing problems discussed Mr. Weber criticized the IRC offices for “not being open the hours they, should have been.” He noted that the records and files “were unstructured, they should be more dates stress credibility, dorm elections 7 permanent.” Mr. Weber observed. “Anything that got done was done by the Student Association.

Bus service to the Amherst Campus must become as efficient as possible within the minimal budget allocated by the University. Mr. Weber believes that the Busing Committee, of which he was Chairman this year, should become a branch of the IRC executive committee, and should “last as long as/the busing problem exists.” He also stressed that “more innovative busing methods should be looked into.” He hopes that enough people will join IRC next year so that free or low-cost busing to hockey and basketball games and other off-campus activities can be maintained. Many problems with North to Main Campus bus service, Mr. Rose explained, originated with budget cuts made in Albany. “We will.work with the Administration’s ties to Albany,” he asserted, adding: “It is a matter of getting to people in charge and bitching enough, and of student input.” . Newsletter urged If elected, Mr. Rose maintains he will periodically an issue IRC newsletter. “We must have someone in office who is sensitive to IRC’s new plans,” he emphasized.

Amherst Campus this year gives him an advantage, since “the blatant neglect of IRC was in what it didn’t do for us.” He added: “As afreshman, maybe I haven’t been stained by apathy yet. Maybe I have too much exuberance. I believe firmly in what IRC can be.” Mr. Rose, a junior, was the IRC representative from Goodyear House Council, and also served on the IRC Reevaluation and Organization Task Force. Support ofintramurals hy State to he proposed bvy Dave Gerincer A bill which would provide for New York State to fund intramural sports at various State University campuses may be introduced shortly in the State Legislature. The bill would have the effect of Lightening the load of the Student Association, which presently funds intramurals from its mandatory activities fee. ‘The bill gives S310,000 to the State University system for intramural sports,” reported Brian Rusk, a spokesman for University-area State Assemblyman Chester Hardt. Tt would be a great problem if we put in for a total appropriation because it would never pass. We may put it on a matching basis, the State to pay $210,000 and the students to pay $310,000. The bill hasn’t been introduced yet, because we have to get it' ironed out,” added Mr. Rusk, who wrote the bill. The measure will be supported in the Senate by local State Senator Jim McFarland. Mr. Rusk cited a potential problem: “We’re not sure partially Various possibilities allocation to sports. It might also say that the State would pay half, the school half, with the school putting in any more if they wanted to,” Mr. Brcisblatt continued. He also indicated that the State might pay its share without the school being obligated to match it. Mr. Breisblatt revealed the motivation behind the action: ‘The whole thing started when we went to SASU (Student Assembly of the State University). They totally rejected the idea, they wanted to set up an athletic committee. Stan Morrow and myself then called up every school in the SUNY system. The $310,000 represents the amount spent on recreation and intramurals in the SUNY system. Jon Dandes (former SA President) and Dave Saleh (former SA vice President) helped us out in talking to legislators. Student Athletic Review Board (SARB) Chairman Warren Breisblatt, who worked for the bill, discussed several possibilities regarding the bill’s working. ‘The school and State might split the cost of intramurals and recreatipn, but there would be more money made available for sports,” Mr. Breisblatt indicated. ‘The bill thi 73-7'' might say that thr hav Dandes helpful Mr. Rusk had much praising Mr. Dandes: ‘The only reason that the mandatory activities fees arc still allowed is that they pay for sports,” Mr. Rusk disclosed. “People like Jon Dandes lobbied successfully. I’d say that we owe it to him that the fee was kept.” if we just want to give the money outright. We don’t want a university to withdraw the funding that they are already providing.” > deadline (today) for The fact that there is a introducing bills in the State Senate (until the next and that bills may be introduced in the session) Assembly only through the rules committee at this date may hamper efforts at getting a bill passed. “It’s late in the session and will probably come through next year, but I can’t guarantee anything for this year,” Mr. Rusk noted. “If we had known about this need earlier, we would have moved on it.” - - ' IN N.Y.

The Spectrum Wednesday, 3 April 1974 . '• �/ * - Late grades vs. Dandes The problem of late grades has been with the University for quite a while, but through the efforts of the past Student Association administration, especially former SA President Jon Dandes, the issue is now being attacked. In July 1973 a memorandum was sent to “all Provosts and Deans of Schools” from Undergraduate Dean Charles Ebert on-the subject of late submission of grades by professors. “Year after year we are running into a situation which, in many cases produces a real hardship situation for our students... Acceptance to graduate school, assignment of graduate assistantships, pre-medical appraisals, and job applications on the part of the students arc delayed. And all this could be prevented.” Over 16,000 students were missing grades at The Spectrum it published three a week, on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, during the regular academic year; and once a week, on Friday, during the by montht; summer The Spectrum Student Periodical, Inc., H.

He established the 14-day deadline and added: 'The issue of late grades is taken very seriously, and rightfully so, by the student body in general, and by the present student government in particular. I urge all faculty members to cooperate with this necessary and reasonable policy on submitting final grades to avoid embarrassment and possibly grievance cases.” After all these attempts at preventing late grades on January 4, 1974, the established deadline for grade submissions, 2662 grades representing 123 sections were missing. Forty-three departments had sections in which late grades were turned in; notably English, with 27 sections missing, College E, with 13 sections missing, and Political Science with 12 sections missing. Although this is a definite improvement over previous semesters, SA did not feel the difference was substantial or enough to leave the problem to the good nature of instructors. On January 22, SA had started to file grievances against S8 University faculty members. PSYCHOLOGY Seeking an MA Degree?

Mr. Daades announced that SA had retaiaed aa attorney to fie daaa action civil suits against any instructor who had net submitted his grades at least two weeks after die end of final exams. The action would be taken against professors due to the violation of contractual obligations, Mr. Dandes explained. “All grades must be delivered to the Office of Admission and Records not later than 14 calendar days following the end of the final examination period in any given semester," vice president for Academic Affairs Bernard Gelbaum had declared in a November memorandum. This two-week deadline can be compared to the 72-hour deadline for grades at the State Universities at Stony Brook, Harpur and Cortland, or the 48-hour deadline at Albany, Buffalo State, Brockport, University of Michigan, Penn State and UCLA. f’rll ■All*' '* V • J • i \Jww "'• Yt'vV.df * •• • i/V'VS I---' •■. •f kv-va * £• * • The response from the academic departments to these letters of grievance ranged from outright denial, to excuses of poor health, to total agreement with the grievance and the placement of a letter of censure into the confidential file of the professor. New SA President Frank Jackalone has voiced his concern over the problem of late grades. At this time no professor has yet been sued, however. Legal action will be taken against a professor if the submission of a late grade can directly be linked to the inability of a student to gain entrance to another university, to obtain financial aid, or to obtain employment, Mr. Jackalone declared.

When backed by an overwhelming military dominance in the area, Israel s obstinate refusal to the demands for the return of Arab lands was one thing. Continuation of this refusal in the face of a less-favorable military balance appears to be a last-ditch effort by Israel to hold onto gains made in a situation long since vanished. The Arab oil boycott against Western Europe and the United States which had threatened to cripple global economics was abandoned under pressure from the US. oil companies and as a token gesture of good will. But while the step toward rapprochment was being taken, Syria remained adamantly opposed to any easing of tensions with Israel, as well as opposing any concessions which would pave the way to a negotiated re-evaluation of the area’s power centers. It is understandable that the Syrians demand a settlement advantageous to them, but it is hard to fathom the persistence which has set them against both the Arab nations and the major superpowers which are, at least on the surface, pressuring for an immediate and lasting peace. What, if any, is the significance of the renewed outbreak of sporadic war in the Golan Heights? If it is a unilateral action on the part of Syria, without support from the other Arab states, then it would appear to be a futile effort reflecting an inability to grasp the changing political set-up in die Middle East. If the Syrian activities are secretly supported by the other Arab states, it means that all talk about eased tensions and chances for a lasting aimed at biding settlement are no more than delusion make will Arab re-militarization another war time until possible. the Western powers should not relegate the Israeli-Syrian fighting to a secondary, obscure and unimportant border skirmish. Such an attitude would seriously underestimate its true importance. Pressing a matters in other parts of the globe demand attention threatening breakup of the NATO alliance seems immensely more important, now that the flames of war - — Renewed fighting on the Israeli-Syrian front has now entered jts third week with little Hope for either a let-up in the intensity of' the battle or a quick negotiated settlement. The publicity-grabbing easing of tensions between Israel and the majority of its Arab neighbors (mainly Egypt) has overshadowed die battles which erupted recently in the Golan Heights, where tank artillery and infantry battles have turned the American-orchestrated cease-fire of last November into an irrelevant; oft-abrogated scrap of paper. The Middle East war which erupted last fall caused a stir throughout the world and brought about intensified diplomatic efforts to reach a settlement, before the events of war ran their course and the situation became totally uncontrollable. The fighting of the last few weeks has been little more than an afterthought to the world oil crisis, the US.-Western Europe difficulties, and the promised direct negotiations between Israel and the bulk of the Arab , states. This lack of attention is difficult to explain unless the radical shift in Mideast power politics within the last year is taken into consideration. Israel, despite internal conflicts, still maintains its hold on Arab lands acquired — State cuts art funds Financial difficulties may be in store for the Albright-Knox Art Gallery and the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra because funds that would have gone to the State Council on the Arts have been excluded from the State budget. The Republican-controlled State Legislature passed the highest budget in history last week, totalling approximately S9.2 billion. This figure is $140.9 million below what Governor Malcolm Wilson had expected last January. $11.5 million of that deleted $140.9 million would have gone to the State Council on the Arts. After the budget was passed, the Legislature vetoed a Democratic-sponsored amendment calling for the restoration of the $11.5 million for the arts. Voting against the amendment which would provide the Cbuncil on the Arts with additional funding were Democratic Senator James D. Griffin and four Western New York Republican Senators: James T. McFarland of Tonawanda, Thomas F. McGowan of Buffalo, Lloyd H. Paterson of Niagara Falls, and Jess J. Present of Jamestown. Senator Joseph A. Tauriello, who had expressed concern about the fate of the Buffalo Philharmonic and other area art centers, failed to convince his colleagues to vote yes on the arts amendment. S.O.S Concern for the Philharmonic’s future prompted Ellie Dorrity of the Buffalo Philharmonic to contact radio station WPHD-FM for assistance. At her request, the station ran a series of ads over the. weekend, asking its listeners to send public service telegrams to their representatives, urging them to approve the budget appropriation for the State Council on the Arts. “We ran the ads because we felt it was for a good cause,” said WPHD's program director. — — Chinese course have cooled. But it was the Mideast conflict, after all, and its concomitant oil boycott, that precipitated the current Western crisis. Refusal to recognize the fighting on the Syrian front as a serious threat to the uneasy Mideast peace could very well lead to an all-out conflict dwarfing and making secondary problems the violence of last fall of long-term alliances a moot issue. -Michael O ’Neill — offered The Chinese Studies Program of the State University at Albany will offer an 102 intensive course in written and spoken Chinese in the summer, 19)4; Chi 101 August 2.

The Armed Forces Health Professions Scholarship Program. It won’t soften the demands of your professors, or those you make upon yourself —but it may free you from those financial problems which, understandably, can put a crimp in your concentration. If you qualify, our scholarship program will cover the costs of your medical education. More, you'll receive a good monthly allowance all through your schooling. But what happens after you graduate? Then, as a health care officer in the military branch of your choice you enter a professional environment that is challenging, stimulating and satisfying. An environment which keeps you in contact with practically all medical specialties. Which gives you the time to observe and learn before you decide on your specialty. Which may present the opportunity to train in that specialty. And to practice it. You may also find some of the most advanced medical achievements happening right where you work. Like at the Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio, Texas, long noted for its Burn Treatment Center. Or the home of Flight Medicine, the famed Aerospace Medical Division, also In San r Antonio. Or the National Naval Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland, recognized worldwide fpr its work in Medical Research. And if you've read this far, you may be interested in the details.

The letter was shifted from office to office until Russ Classman of CAC finally received it and looked into the possibilities of reviving the plan. After several unsuccessful inquiries to various departments and offices, Mr. Classman met with some success when Panic Theater agreed to do a benefit performance of their latest production, “Anything Goes.” to see the special performance. More than just TV “The production received an excellent response,” said Mr. Classman. “People who otherwise might have nothing but television to fill their hours had the opportunity to see a live production.” Many people from the participating organizations called to give their thanks and encourage more programs of this type. F uture productions of the Panic Theater will also be performed as part of the program, and Steve Porter is presently forming a Dance Production to serve as part of Corps. There are also plans for a Children’s Theater. The Corps hopes to perform for such organizations as Buffalo State Hospital and St. Joseph’s Center for Senior Citizens, but Mr. Classman noted that some organizations are still a little leery of the University and are reluctant to accept the proposals. CAC is seeking $9200 from SA for the University Performing Corps for next year, which would include the budget for Panic Theater.

Naturally, a great camera like the F-1 won’t ensure great results. That’s up to you. Yet—it's nice to know that your camera can grow with you as a photographer.

A study published in Nature reported that huge doses of THC, the active chemical in marijuana, * increased the immune responses in mice, NORML Grass controversy, cont. Errors are claimed in research by John Christ Special to The Spectrum (CPS) A widely-publicized research study which found that marijuana causes damage to certain types of white blood cells [see The Spectrum, March 29, page 8] has come under widespread attack from a number of scientists and organizations. The findings were reported by a team of researchers at Columbia University headed by Dr. Gabriel Nahas at a press conference on January 25T At the conference, Dr. Hah as said his tests on blood drawn from heavy users indicated that marijuana caused certain white blood cells called “T lymphocytes” to be inhibited in division. Division of white blood cells is one of die ways the body fights disease. Nriias reported that since *T lymphocytes” may be instrumental in fighting cancer-causing viruses, marijuana may be a cause of cancer, as well as generally weakening the overall response of the body to disease. In light of his discovery. Dr. Hahas called for a complete re-evaluation of the National Commission on Marijuana and Drug Abuse Report, which in 1972 advocated decriminalization of - marijuana. Credibility suspect The National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML) was especially upset about the wide media coverage given to Dr. Nahas' claims. NORML hastened to point out that Nahas has campaigned hard and illogically against marijuana for a long time prior to his study, and as such his credibility is suspect. Last year, Dr. Nahas’ book. Marijuana, the Deceptive Weed (Raven Press, N.Y.) was widely criticized as a purportedly scientific work with an open anti-marijuana bias. In that book Dr. Nahas called marijuana the “green menace” which was about to destroy the American way of life, and urged that the “pleasure-oriented” society of the U.S. respond to this “challenge” thrust on the West by the U.S.S.R. and China. The bulk of Dr. Nahas’ book consisted of attacks on marijuana research that has not denounced the weed. A review of the book in the Journal of the American Medical Association said, “examples of biased selections and interpretations abound in every chapter," and criticized Dr. Nahas’ attitude as a “tremendous step backward for medicine.” Pr. Nahas, who has testified before a number of state legislatures against reducing criminal penalties for marijuana, called his press conference before the study was published, and therefore before the paper could be examined for discrepancies of errors in research methods, NORML said. Methods faulted Since the publication of the study in Science magazine on February 1, opposition has grown rapidly within the scientific and academic communities. Critics particularly have found fault with the way the experiments were set up and the methods by which Dr. Nahas drew his conclusions: Dr. Nahas used volunteers who had been heavy marijuana users in the past, but who said they had not used any “other mind-altering drugs,” for the study group. However Dr. Nahas said the subjects smoked cigarettes and drank alcohol, both of which contain drugs that have been considered “mind-altering.” In his findings, Dr. Nahas discounted the effects of these and other drugs such as caffeine, amphetamines, barbiturates, antihistamines, aspirin, and unspecified prescription drugs which the subjects had taken in the past. Dr. Nahas presented his findings and then singled out marijuana from his subjects’ drug histories as the cause of his study results. Other researchers have pointed to the growing mass of scientific work done with marijuana which contradicts Dr. reported. Vera Rubin| who was in charge of a medical study of Jamaicans who had smoked large quantities of marijuana for an average of 17 yean (see CPS No. 17) said that the results of that study were in direct contradiction to the Nahas findings. Results invisible ‘The Jamaican study of long-term chronic ganja (a potent form of marijuana] smokers found no deleterious effects that could be attributed to cannabis,” Dr. Rubin said in a recent statement. “Ganja teas and tonics have been taken by the rural population for the past fifty years... and there is no indication that resistance to disease has declined as a result of marijuana.” Ted Mijuriya of the University of California at Berkeley and author of Marijuana Medical Papers 1832-1972 summed his findings up this way: “If marijuana really has anti-immunologic effects on white blood cells, we’d see the results in hospital admissions. We don’t.” He also noted “the absence of any medical reports describing excessive susceptibility to viral or bacterial infection by marijuana users in the past by 134 years of medical experience with the drug.” Columbia University, in whose name Nahas has announced his findings, has backed away from endorsing the study. In a public letter, Columbia President William J. McGill said, “Dr. Nahas speaks for himself, not the University... The University will not endorse or otherwise comment on Dr. Nahas’ findings.” Nearly all detractors agree that more study should be done on the effects, of marijuana on white blood cells before any judgment is made. As such, Dr. Nahas’ work is considered to simply indicate another possibility to be explored, rather than definitive medical proof of a marijuana-induced disorder. Yet despite this situation, the Nahas announcement has received wide coverage through television and the wire services as concrete proof that marijuana has harmful physical effects.

During this time hallucinogens were very prevalent in the community and people were having a difficult time dealing with the emotional and medical aspects. As time passed, we felt that in order to make our services more useful, Sunshine House would have to expand and continually bend to the community needs. Today, we have our own house, rather than a room, and have extended our services, referral files and training program. STAFF AND FUNDING Sunshine House is staffed by caring individuals who desire to help others. All of the members are volunteers who have gone through an extensive training program. The training OUTREACH Sunshine House provides outreach services for emergencies only. Situations such as drug overdose, bad acid trips, medical emergencies and the like may fit into our outreach realm.

But now that over 2000 students will be living on that barren campus in September, the current freeze on funds for Amherst is completely unfair to those that the state has mandated must live there. The administration came under strong criticism for stranding 800 freshmen in the Governor's dorms this year with nothing but a Law School and miles of mud for company. However, President Robert Ketter explained that if the University did not utilize the dorrrs that were constructed first (whose far-sighted planning was that?), Albany would not provide any more money for further construction. So after consigning the unlucky batch of freshmen to bad bus service and mud for a year, the State Division of Budgets has again frozen funds for Amherst which would equip the Creative Crafts Center, performance theater and Ellicott Complex lecture hall for Amherst residents, The expenditures for Amherst must seem unduly large to Albany's budget-watchers compared to outlays for other individual SUNY campuses, but Albany has never fully understood the unique problems this University faces in making a mass transition from one campus to another. But because they have mandated that students must live in the Amherst dorms just because they are built, they have a responsibility not to freeze the money that would provide some facilities and activities for those students. Fortunately, the Administration seems confident of persuading the State Legislature to provide the needed funds for Amherst in the state supplemental budget. We strongly urge the State Legislators to ease the plight of the 2000 students victimized by short-sighted planning by restoring the frozen funds for the Amherst Campus. intramurals: ray of hope A bill which would provide for New York State to pick up part of the tab for intramural and recreational sports on SUNY campuses is expected to be introduced to the State Legislature this week. As a result of successful persuasion by former SA officials Jon Dandes and Dave Saleh and SARB Breisblatt, State chairman Warren Assemblyman Chester Hardt and State Senator Jim McFarland will sponsor a bill that would enable the state to provide about $310,000 for state-wide intramurals and recreation, with this University receiving about $50,000. It is becoming increasingly difficult for students to subsidize the entire cost of both intercollegiate athletics and a large enough intramurals and recreation program to satisfy the rising student demand. Out of a total athletic budget of $220,000, last year's campus cost for intramurals and recreation was $45,000, but should rise to about $60,000 next year with a sorely-needed athletic bubble and more activities planned for the Amherst Campus. While it would seem more logical if the state funded varsity sports and the students 1 paid for intramurals, SUNY Central is totally opposed to paying for intercollegiate sports but might accept funding intramurals. With participation soaring in intramural football, basketball, hockey, baseball and volleyball, and with demand increasing for use of the gym, pool, tennis and handball courts and planned Amherst athletic bubble not to mention the increased interest in intramurals have become a women's sports priority. Certainly such activities serve many more students than intercollegiate teams, where the decline in fan interest has paralleled the loss of scholarships and the drop in quality. If the only sports area in which it's 1 possible to get supplemental funding from the state is intramurals and recreation, then let's try to get it there. While the odds for passage of the bill are not exactly overwhelming, we urge the State Legislators to carefully consider the proposal on its merits and recognize its responsibility to help pay for intramural and recreational when added to the burden of sports, which is subsidizing intercollegiate athletics becoming more difficult for students to afford on their own. — — — — — Two successes and a failure Late grades may not seem to be an earth-shaking issue, but students can get fatally strangled in red tape when a late grade or incomplete transcript prevents them from being accepted by another college or graduate school, obtaining financial aid, or getting a job. But through the efforts of former SA President Jon Dandes, the late grade problem has been spotlighted and is being attacked. After Mr. Dandes threatened a class action legal suit against faculty members who submitted grades late for breach of contract, the percentage of late grades last semester was significantly reduced; and after campus grievances were filed against still-negligent instructors, a majority of the late grades were quickly submitted. Considering that this University's 14-day deadline for grades is far longer than most schools' 48- or 72-hour period, the two weeks is certainly a reasonable enough period for any responsible instructor to evaluate his students and issue grades. We hope future threats of lawsuits will not be necessary in the coming semesters, but if instructors continue to make it difficult for students applying for jobs, aid and schools by neglecting their responsibilities, a student lawsuit may become more than a threat. Fhj* eifht. The Spectrum . Another accomplishment by Mr. Dandes and Cliff Palefsky, former Student Rights coordinator, was persuading the Administration-controlled FSA to reinstitute the Food Service seconds table for dorm students on board contracts. A vital addition to supplement shrinking meals, FSA's acceptance of a lower profit margin by restoring the seconds table while a humane decision was made possible only by the persistent efforts of these SA officials. topic, On another it seems the University's annual graduation ceremony is attracting fewer and fewer students than ever before. While graduations are like weddings handing out primarily for the parents diplomas em masse to thousands of students in Memorial Auditorium is obviously as impersonal as the rest of this large University. It is not difficult to see why many students choose not to attend a graduation in a sports stadium. Short of combining the graduation ceremony with a hockey or basketball game in the Aud to attract more participants, a better solution would perhaps be a return to smaller ceremonies by each department or faculty on the campus so each student would feel a part of his graduating class, and not just another number in a mass of graduating statistics. Wednesday, 3 April 1974 — — — — Humane question To the Editor. As a member of the National Mustang Association, I am writing to you and your readers to ask for your help to convince the Bureau of Land Management to grant grazing permits to the National Mustang Association’s ranch located in Barclay, Nevada. ‘The problem in brief, revolves around the of Land Management’s reluctance to recognize the National Mustang Association’s legal right to hold grazing permits attached to the ranch at the Barclay, they say, Nevada.,,, Because, Association ‘is not entitled to be in the livestock business.’ However, under Utah non-profit corporate law (the NMA is a Utah non-profit corporation and the rules apply) the Association is entitled to hold permits; Various “unofficial” legal opinions have held that the NMA is entitled to the permits under the Taylor Grazing Act as well as under state law.” Thus, “legally” there should be no question, but more important, what about the “humane” question? Can anyone possibly imagine these wild beautiful horses racing and living on their own range and not being allowed to lower their heads to fulfill their natural desire to nourish their hunger or drink to quench their thirst. In the days of the Bible, a group of newly freed Hebrew slaves were also foraging in the desert and when they were faced with starvation the Lord provided manna from heaven for their survival. Today the wild Mustang has been given sanctuary on the Barclay Ranch provided by the National Mustang Association and God has provided them with manna from heaven, all that is needed now is Mercy granted by the Bureau of Land Management. Mercy and permission that these nobel horses may be allowed to bow their heads and Bureau survive. Your letter of appeal to the following parties asking them to grant the grazing permits will be a positive step in their survival. Please write today as the grazing permits will be coming up for legislation in the Congress. Honorable Rogers C.B.

SA: credit when due y To the Editor: * A A* a member of both the past and present Executive Committee of the Student Association I have listened to the criticism of the full page ad in The Spectrum indicating our accomplishments throughout this and last year. I accept this criticism for what it is worth. Let me point out, however, why ads of this sort may have some validity. In the article ‘The End of the Hungry Diner: Seconds Table to be Restored” there was no mention of the role the Student Association played. It was successful arguments of Mssrs. Palcfsky and Saleh that brought about the implimentation of the seconds policy. Were it not for their efforts, those on board contracts would not have a seconds table. I hope that in the future, the Student Association will receive credit when credit is due. I believe we can then better accept criticism. Then and only then will ads of similar nature be unjustified. l«sowr ISM SIMON SAYS Evaluating Jon Dandes Howard M. Schapiro Student Affairs Coordinator To the Editor. Now that the Jon Dandes administration has come to an end, it’s about time that people stop jumping on to the bandwagon of criticism and really evaluate the true merits or failures of that administration. Jon Dandes came into office, after the failures of the Benson administration, one that had attempted to mobilize the voice of the students. Mr. Dandes was dealing with ah extremely apathetic student body, which left him very little alternative if his administration was to be an effective one. For in student government, there are only two routes you can go. Firstly, you can appeal for student support, and use this base of power to effect meaningful change. But when only 2700 students vote in an election and interest in student government has hit an all-time low, this method leads either to an inactive S A administration or one that is doomed to failure. The only other possible route to work for effective change for the students is to ally yourself with the administration and faculty, and to use this along with community, alumni, and local legislative support, as your base of power. Joh Dandes choose this route, for he was not prepared to see another year of ineffective and inactive SA government. Some called this a sellout of the students, but Unfunny stereotype To the Editor. I resent the article, Rise in Complaints about JAPs published in The Spectrum on 4/1/74. As a Jewish woman distressed about the anti-semitism which already exists, I feel you are doing a dis-service to the community by publishing something which perpetrates a derogatory stereotype of Jewish Women. If the writer of the article meant to be funny, I’d like to know where the humor lies in stereotyping Jewish women as egocentric sex objects? Prejudice and discrimination are based on generalizations. Jews have been victims of jokes for long enough and much of the anti-semitism that exists is based on hateful charicatures similar to the article published in Monday’s Spectrum. At a time when we are paying more and more attention to racism and sexism, let us also be sensitive to the anti-semitism around us. Carol Seidman Martin Sostre has lost another battle for his freedom. Federal Judge John T. Curtin today handed down his long-awaited decision in Sostre’s bid for a new trial based upon the recanted testimony of the State’s main witness, Arto Williams. Curtin refused to overturn the conviction and denied Sostre a new trial. In his 23-page decision he not claimed to find Williams’ recantation only “unworthy of belief” but had the nerve to state that “there is no reason not to believe the testimony of the police officers” even though one of those police officers, Alvin Gristmacher, has been charged with Grand Larceny in the theft of half a million Sexual fear To the Editor.

He has helped to restore UB’s image in the community and has gained the respect and support of local area legislators. Jon has helped to put integrity back in student government and he has built a base of power for the students by working effectively with the administration, alumni and UB Foundation. Student government has come a long way under Jon's term as President; and he has definitely laid the framework for effective student government. Many will criticize the way that Jon fought for student power at UB., but there isn’t one who can deny the effectiveness of his administration. The Dandes administration will go down as a lesson for SA of what students’ government can really accomplish. Though Jon was a controversial president, even his enemies have to admit that if the current SA administration is half as effective as he was, they will accomplishing a great deal. Jon Dandes and the members of his administration should be praised for the fine year of student government that they have given to the students at UB. Warren Breisblatt Chairman, SARD Sostre denied freedom To the Editor. Vol. 24, No. 69 . . .Joan Weisbarth Joe Fernbacher Michael O'Neill dollars worth of heroin stolen from the police narcotics locker. Williams admitted under oath in May 1973 that he helped Gristmacher and Erie County Sheriff Mike Amico frame Sostre in July, 1967 on drug sale charges. It took Curtin 9Vi months to decide that he did not believe Williams’ recantation. Many people had expressed hope in Judge Curtin’s reputation as a liberal. When five young anti-war activists broke into the U.S. Post Office in Buffalo two years ago in a raid to destroy Draft Board records they were convicted and faced up to 15 years in prison. Curtin sentenced them to a year’s probation and, in an unprecendented speech from a Federal Judge, encouraged them to continue their anti-war work. But while Curtin dealt leniently with the Buffalo 5 white and middle-class Irish Catholic there was no justice in his liberals like himself courtroom for a militant black Puerto Rican like - - Martin Sostre. There is never justice for a person of color in this white racist society, no matter how “liberal” the judge in question is supposed to be. This should teach us never again to fall for the trap of the “liberal” label. Sostre is presently in New York City at the Federal House of Detention to testify in another prisoner’s lawsuit against the State prison system. He’ can be returned at any time to Clinton Prison, where he has been tortured in solitary confinement for 14 months. During that time he was beaten six times by guards, forced to stand outside naked in six degree weather, denied all visitors (including lawyers and clergy), was tear-gassed in his cell, had his mail continually obstructed, was denied books and newspapers, etc., etc., etc. If this were not enough, he was indicted in Clinton County Court for allegedly assaulting the very guards who attacked him! The assault charges are still pending, and Sostre faces a life sentence if convicted. When will the public demand an end to this persecution?

The majority opinion by Justice William Brennan further stated that the denial of benefits to CO’s “involves only an incidental burden upon free exercise of religion.” The ruling came in a suit brought by WHhun Robison, a who objector conscientious years two of performed alternative service in a Boston hospital. Robison claimed that CO’s suffer the same disruption in their lives as veterans and were to entitled equally assistance. “readjustment” Robison also claimed that denying benefits to objectors violated the of guarantees constitutional freedom of religion. A Federal District Court had upheld Mr. Robison’s position, ‘me military that stating vetetans, alternative servicemen have been exposed to the uncertainties caused by the draft law and were deprived during performed they the time of the service alternative opportunity to obtain educational more or pursue objectives rewarding civilian goals.” In rejecting both of Robison’s arguments. Justice Brennan said that the existence of educational benefits for veterans now S220 “may help induce a a month draftee either to military volunteer for the draft or not seek Service lower Selective a classification.” This argument, said Brennan, formed a “rational basis” for Congress’ limiting benfits to veterans. In past cases, Mr. Brennan ... - - stated, the Court had ruled that “incidental burdens” on the free exercise of religion “may be strictly justified by substantial governmental interests,” such as raising an army. Religious penalty? Critics of the decision have argued that a CO would not be persuaded to serve in the army on a “rational” basis, since by Selective Service definition CO’s must oppose all wars based on a deeply-held ethical or religious belief and not on the grounds of “essentially political, sociological, or philosophical views.” Justice William O. Douglas, the only dissenter in the Court’s decision, stated that “the discrimination against a man with religious scruples seems apparent.” “Full benefits are available to occupants of safe desk jobs and _ ■ the thousands of veterans who performed civilian type duties at home and for whom the rigors of the “war were far from ‘totally use the to disruptive,’ Mr. phrase,” government’s Douglas argued. Yet, he said, only objectors were conscientious denied benefits for this reason. “It is, indeed,” he continued, “demeaning to those who have scruples against religious shouldering arms to suggest, as the government does, that those scruples must be religious susceptible of compromise before they will be protected.” “Government, as I read the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, may not place a penalty on anyone for asserting his religious scruples. That is the nub of the present case and the reason why the judgment below should be affirmed,” Justice Douglas said. I BiBi IS HERE! 11 PM to 8 AM daily.

(§) New tork Telephone AN OPEN LETTER TO STUDENTS Can you imagine traveling through the Mediterranean world and still receiving full SUNY Binghamton semester credit? Can you believe that you can live in Malta, Italy, and Tunis during an entire academic year (or semester) for little more than what it would cost you to remain on campus? Well, it’s true; the SUNY-Binghamton Overseas Academic Program in Mediterranean Studies provides just such an opportunity. What’s more, students majoring in Humanities including English and Social Sciences including History receive excellent instruction. All students in Liberal Arts are encouraged to apply. The language requirement in Malta and Italy has now become optional although students without any language background will probably want to take some language study abroad. Majors in Romance Languages are welcome to participate in the Fall Semester in Malta and Italy. But during the Spring Semester they will travel to Aix-en-Provence or Barcelona*where they will live in private apartments or with families depending on their preferences The SUNY-Binghamton Overseas Academic Program in Mediterranean Studies is one of the few programs in the SUNY system that sends students to the Islamic world. The program is not only interdisciplinary but multi-cultural and multi-country as well.

If you’re accustomed to the visual catatonics of the underground comix genre, if your orbs are encrusted in bleak ennui, if your mind is warped to the nth degree, if your consciousness is bordering on eroto-cannibalism, if you’re a bit odd, then of a panel of you’ll understand the import their established artists discussing in time-warp and their futures that’s ’cause the v shaky pasts drooling obscenities,, Court latest ’bout Supremes mean ya can’t show wee-^ees,- and ca-ca, and $ ultrasnuff-visions, has caught the underground industry by the proverbial short-hairs. Seems everybody wants to elevate the decadent consciousness. Spain Rodriguez, /ay Lynch, and Harvey Kurtzman are the three underground.comix artists who’ll be visiting Buffalo today. In store for local inksperts will be various workshops, a truly dazzling Gallery display, and a panel discussion moderated by Leslie Fiedler. Topics of discussion will include the burgeoning French undergrounds, the future of genitals in mass media, and lead-depth for fun and profit. Spain Rodriguez is a former Buffalo street-chomper whose work ranges from the futuristic female mutations of “Mean Bitch Tljrilis” to the quiet serenity of Trashman. His works have i appeared in Zap, Skull, etc. His most recent ... — - — gs) & excursion takes him once again into the land of future time. The tale, “Sangrella” takes us into the world of women, like we’ve never seen it before. Lots of visual angst. Jay Lynch is the creator of the Bijou Publishing Empire and one of the aggressive leaders in maintaining the genre as pure as it possibly can be. His creations, “Nard ’n Pat,” have been tickling everybody’s fancy fer years. Much better than Fat Cat. Harvey Kurtzman’s influence on the field of comics has been nothing short of profound. Along with Bill Gaines and A1 Feldstcin he was responsible for the magnificent, head-expanding EC-line way back in the Golden Age. From there he went on to things like being one of the founding fathers of Mad Magazine, to Trump magazine, to Humbug, right • through to Help. Help was one of the pivotal creations for the field of undergrounds. In its Public Gallery some of the finest underground artists got their starts. R. Crumb, Gilbert Shelton, Jay Lynch, all had their beginnings in Kurtzman’s magazine. Nice credentials. The panel will be held in the Fillmore Room tonight, the Gallery display will be open all day, and the workshops will be conducted throughout the day. All free. Orb it, it’ll scan. -J.F.

Need helpT Do you find it impossible to untangle the University bureaucracy ? In cooperation with the Office of Student Affairs and Services, the Spectrum sponsors Action Line, a weekly reader service column. Through Action Line, individual students can get answers to puzzling questions, find out where and why University decisions are made and get action where change is needed. Just dial 831-5000 or visit the Action Line booth in the Venter Lounge in Norton Hall for individual attention. The Office of Student Affairs and Services will investigate all questions and complaints, and will answer them individually. The name of the individual originating the inquiry is kept confidential under all circumstances. The more common questions will be answered in this column each week. Q: 1 intend to graduate this May. Are there any special procedures to follow? Also, when will commencement be held? A; Students should file a degree application card with Admissions and Records in Hayes Annex B approximately six months before the expected date of graduation. If you have not filed one yet, you should do so immediately. The general commencement ceremony is scheduled for Tuesday, May 21, 1974 at 3 p.m. in Memorial Auditorium. Measurements and orders for caps and gowns will be taken on April 10th and 11th in the Norton bookstore. A packet containing all the necessary information for graduation will be mailed to those students who completed their degree requirements in September 1973* January 1974, and those who plan on graduating in May 1974. This packet is being' prepared by Admissions and Records and should be mailed out to those concerned within the next two weeks. Q: I heard that the library has a computer which will print out a bibliography for research topics. I have quite a few papers and would like to be able to use this service if possible. Where can I get more information? A: The Health Sciences Library in cooperation with the Medical School sponsors the SUNY Biomedical Communications Network which is an online information retrieval system for the field of biomedicine. The central computer located in Albany relays information to the Health Sciences terminal. This service can be used to construct bibliographies, investigate the amount and kind of research done in a particular area, avoid duplication of research efforts and trace developments chronologically. The question is designed as a cross reference tool for those articles which are not easily found through Jndex Medicus. An example of a typical search request is: the relationship of smoking to lung neoplasms. This service is offered free of charge to all SUNYAB students, faculty and staff. Other interested individuals must pay a fee of $7.50 for a minimum of 30 minutes or $10 per hour. To make an appointment, call the Health Sciences Library, extension 2441, and ask for the Search analyst or a reference librarian. Appointments may- be scheduled from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., Monday through Friday. The staff reserves the right not to do searchers that are inappropriate for the system. Unfortunately, the expense of developing and maintaining such a computer system makes it impossible to develop a similar system for all other research areas. However, a similar service is offered by the Psychological Abstracts Information Service and the Educational Resources Information Center (ERIC). Follow the same procedure as described above, however appointments for searchers on Psychological Abstracts may be scheduled only on Monday, Senior Nursing Students With graduation approaching, your thoughts are probably on plans for the future. one of Consider becoming part of the health-care team at Mt.

Evidence of this can be seen in the 1934 German propaganda masterpiece Triumph of the WUl. Director Leni Riefenstahl skillfully synthesizes scenes of the Nuremburg Rally into a forceful document in the spirit of Nazism. It is an excellent example of how clever film editing and splendid Wagnerian marches can be utilized for maximum effect. Subtle, intelligent documentaries like The Sorrow and the Pity and To Die in Madrid are contrasted with Frank Capra’s American propaganda Why We Fight series. Capra’s films, almost insulting in their heavy-handed Mussolini’s political and social doctrine on Fascism, to a psychological portrait of Adolph Hitler’s mother. Occasional 1— guest speakers have included noted journalist • and visiting professor of English Dwight Macdonald, professor John Sullivan on his experiences in London during the German bombing ‘blitz,’ and other members of the History Department. r By far the most distinctive part of the course, however, is the program of films. John Wayne not withstanding, each film is there not for the student’s viewing pleasure but for its value as a historical document. Dr. Allen emphasizes that a movie is most often not the unbiased visual report recorded by a camera. A movie, he ' simplicity, are useful in studying how die military presented information to the public. To Die in Madrid is an emotional account of people suffering during the Spanish Civil War, a moving lyrical film that yconfronts the viewer as a sympathetic human being. The Fwdocumentary The Sorrow and the Pity concerns “the Nazi occupation of France during World War II, and explores the courage, cowardice, and commitment of the collaborators and resistors,” according to the class film notes. Dr. Alien openly hopes that other schools across die country will imitate the experiment of History 100, noting that he would “be delighted if other people picked upon it. Despite admitted faults. Dr. Allen claims success: “People have learned more in this course than in any other I have taught, and I’m convinced it worked.” Summer registration The Office of Admissions and Records will conduct Summer Session 1974 Registration beginning Monday, April IS, 1974.

No gas After the Bulls lost the war of blades, the they had to fight another battle battle of the gas pump. If die fuel shortage is over, someone diould tell Cleveland about it. because there was no gas within a two-mile radius of the team’s hotel. A three-mile walking tour of the city yielded no gas and the Bulls began to have delusions about waiting until the April supplies came through. Fortunately, the Bulls won this battle, but not without some assistance from the Case Western team bus and a Red Ball service station. • Campus: $2.75 per col. inch ~ boxspring.

Forman, a senior and finalist last year, offered this analysis beforehand; “You try not to look at the other guys ’cause if you do, you might see someone practicing and think, ‘Hey, he looks pretty sharp.’ But anything can happen, and you can’t get psyched out. So afterwards, when he beats you, then you can think, ‘Hey, he is pretty sharp’.” Forman split his first two bouts and then lost his last nine. Maybe he should have worn a blindfold. Foilist Reisine managed to win two of his bouts, but was almost thrown out of the tournament altogether when coach Alfred Paredo of Baruch accused him of Munz, a sabre fencer, was the first to fall. He didn't fence too badly, but some questionable calls resulted in a 4-6 record in the preliminary round, not up to par with his 14-6 regular season record and his impressive third-place finish in the North Atlantic Regional Championship. In spite of his won-lost record, the junior’s marks tied him for the last spot in the “repechage,” which is a second chance for borderline fencers to make the jump into the finals.

Julian Bond, the young black legislator from Georgia, appeared before a disappointingly small audience in Clark Hall Thursday evening to pontificate on the state of national affairs. His address was filled with so many humorous remarks about the government that he admitted he used them mouth,” ribbed Mr. Bond. After telling a humorous Lester Maddox “Good-news-bad news” story, Mr. Bond grew serious. ‘The last Presidential election was a philosophical struggle that was resolved in favor of one candidate over the other,” he said. The voters’ eventual choice was bitterly criticized by Mr. Bond, who cited Richard Nixon for his “arrogant contempt of people and their problems.” The past five years had been a time when the government’s priorities changed from “a benign concern to a malignant neglect,” Mr. Bond asserted. Positive gain Fair trial? Speaking a bit more positively, Mr. Bond said black people had in recent years gained many of their Jury duty selection criticized goals’’ including a substantial decrease in segregation practices, the right to register and “professed vote, and input into developing public policy. However, “these gains are illusionary,” he said. Mr. then described Bond some startling facts. “Black elected “to make a speech longer than it really is.” Mr. Bond, who first gained at' the national attention Democratic National Convention in 1968, said he was by profession “a politician.” More recently than ever, he confessed, the political profession has been viewed with much skepticism, but ‘it is the second oldest profession in the world,” he explained. “I belong to the finest body of people money can buy,” Mr. Bond added, officials represent less than 2% of the elected officials in this country. A black college graduate earns about as much in a lifetime as a white high school graduate. ‘The government always finds new ways to spend old money,” Mr. Bond said. “They have relief rolls which give relief to ho one.” Mr. Bond then resumed his attack on President Nixon, who has consistently used his veto power “against thp weak.” Mr. Bond charged. Among these vetoes, which Congress failed to override, were the minimum wage increase act, the emergency medical bill and even legislation for clean air. There must be a movement “massive of those affected by the vetos” to remove the President from office, Mr. audience. Bond told the “Congress lacks the fortitude to impeach him, so they must be the first to go,” he said. More participation Mr. Bond next appealed to his listeners more to participate in actively the affairs of tongue-in-cheek. government. “Those who believe in clean air ought not vote for a Harsh criticism man with a dirty heart,” Mr. Bond Mr. Bond said the reason the cautioned. He regarded streaking college campuses rather profession had fallen into such on “low repute” was because “the cynically, saying “a naked body President has given us a bad can’t hide a naked mind.” name.” He continued: “No one is Quoting Fredrick Douglas, Mr. able to tell when he is telling the Bond concluded: “If there is no truth, but I’m here to reveal a struggle there can be no formerly-sccret method to tell if progress the limits of tyrants he is telling the truth.” The arc prescribed by the limits of ... Georgia legislator said the secret of discerning the President’s veracity was “pay no attention to what he says but concentrate on his hands.” If Mr. Nixon grabs his right ear lobe with his right hand or touches his nose with his left hand, one may assume he is being honest. ‘The only time you’ve got to be careful is when he opens his those who they oppress.” the question-and-answer In period which ensued, Mr. Bond said his only political aspiration was to “stay where I am.” When asked if there was any way to regain confidence in the government, Mr. Bond replied; “Only when you think you have something to do with it.” by Jenny Cheng Spectrum Staff Writer Eric County is the only county in the state that does not initially choose names from the voter registration list at random according to statistics compiled by the Fair Jury Project. ‘This results in a considerable under-representation of women, young people and blacks. The juries do not represent a true cross-section of the community. Instead, they represent only a limited class, ,r explained Mr. Burns. , ‘There are no fair juries in Erie County,” 4eclared attorney Haywood Bums of the Legal Defense for the Attica Brothers. “The present jury selection process in Erie County is grossly discriminatory in the areas of race, sex and age,” he asserted. Members of the Legal Defense in the Attica case, in association with the Fair Jury Project, have comprehensive three-month study researching the jury selection process in Erie County. The results of this study, presented by the Fair Jury Project last Thursday, indicated serious illegal under-representation of blacks, women and young people in Erie county’s jury pool. ‘These representations are not the result of chance or lower voter registration rates for any of these groups. They are results of improper functioning of the jury selection,” revealed the project report. “In a pool of qualified jurors, blacks have been under-represented by 34%, women by 68%, and persons between the ages of 2 1 and 29 by 84%,” the statistics compiled by the committee indicated. The chances of these inequities occurring accidently are the same as the chances of a poker player being dealt 24 consecutive royal flushes,” asserted Mr. Bums. “Not only can the Attica Brothers not get a fair trial released — no one can get a fair trial,” he said. Discrimination in Erie County The Erie County selection process is based on a permanent pool of 117,000 persons qualified for jury duty, from which jurors are chosen monthly. Once a person is qualified, he or she remains in the pool for life, unless subsequently disqualified or exempted. There is a continuous process of qualifying new jurors to replace those who have died or moved away, in order to maintain the pool at a level of 10% of the population. Names are chosen from the voter registration list (supposedly at random) and questionnaires- are sent those persons to selected. The completed is questionnaire classified as “qualified,” “disqualified,” or exempt.” All government officials are disqualified. Clergy, attorneys, members of the news media, firemen and other specialized professionals, as well as women, are entitled to exemptions. To qualify for jury duty, one must be between the ages of 21 and 75, in good health, and have a record free of felony or misdemenor convictions “involving moral turpitude.” A drawing is made each month selecting 1000 names for two-week jury service. Those who serve are not called again for another three years. Any exemptions filed after one has qualified as a juror are considered illegal. ‘ Local statistics “Sampling of voter registration books show in such as West Seneca, out of the 150 questionnaires sent out, 145 of them went to males,” charged the report. “In Cheektowaga, all 82 selections were male. In a list of 16 towns, at least 60% of the males on the voting lists were sent questionnaires, while no effort was made to correct the imbalance of males and females. A similar imbalance was discovered in the number of blacks and young people represented in juries. In the neighborhood of Cold Spring, a predominantly black neighborhood, only 5 of 15 prospective jurors were sent questionnaires, a 67% while in Riverside, a white under-representation neighborhood with 16 candidates, 22 questionnaires were sent out, an over-representation of 38%. No effort was made to correct the imbalance. towns — Official discrimination charged Martin Feinrider, a member of the Project, described the means by which the Erie County jury commissioner’s office has discriminated against these groups. “Cards were found in the office with the notation ‘negro’ written on them,” Mr. Feinrider said, “but no such cards were found marked ‘white’.” Women have been granted exemptions even though they do not request them, and college students seem to have been “automatically disqualified.” Only 3% of voters age 21-29 in Erie County were sent questionnaires. After spending over 500 hours of extensive Jury Project concluded; research, the Fair “Opportunities for discrimination are built into the jury selection system, and in fact, have occurred. This violates the 8th, 6th and 14th amendments of the U.S. Constitution, as well as similar sections of the New York State Constitution, and New York State Law and Appelate Division Rules,” added Mr. Burns. ‘it is heartening to have the results of this study, to verify what I have known for a long time,” said Dorothy Teryl of the Buffalo American Civil Liberties Union. “Working with the criminal system of the ACLU, I have been in a position to observe the composition of the jury panels as they come inttf the courts. The poor and minority defendants in our country are faced with enormous inequities from the bail system to inadequate counsel. Now, at least, we have a challenge to the jury system,” she concluded. 1-fi- �“The Crisis in Higher Education,’ a conference aimed at uniting Community and University people, was held Friday afternoon *in the Fillmore Room. Sponsored by the campus coalition," the forum featured representatives of the Black Student Union, Women’s Caucus and UB Vets. Leslie Medine, a coalition representative, reported that a steering committee has attempted “to get people collectively organized.’ Although she regretted missing the revolution, Ms. Medina was confident that “there’s a movement that’s very much alive and that’s what we have to deal with.” Speaking in reference to school administrations, Mildred Primm of the Buffalo Rights Actions Group (BRAG) said: 'They say education has solved the problem and they recreate the monster.” While she appeared certain Of the audiences’ concern, Ms. Primm doubted if anything would be done: T don’t see how you can get the community to back you when you don’t come out there.” ‘ “Fighting against change” Regarding education, Ms. Primm hoped that human beings can do things other than what they have been trained for. All the Administration wants to do is protect their jobs while they arc fighting against change,” she asserted. Ms. Primm warned that “we should not spend so much time on Nixon and Watergate; we should start thinking about the gate you’re at. I don't care who they impeach,” she said defiantly. “It won’t change the system.” “From the time you are in kindergarten, they have decided who you are,” she commented. Ms. Primm repeatedly told the audience that they had “better get together” if any meaningful changes were to take place. Representing the Attica Brothers Legal Defense, Joe Hill described the background of people now in prison: “85% of those people belong to the Third World Oppressed People. They have to steal, rob and beat up people in order to survive the conditions they live under.” ‘ > Prison bars in college Mr. Hill compared colleges to prisons, stating that each was confined in the walls of some form of power.” He criticized American education for failing to teach the students about life. ‘"Only a certain class has the education,” Mr. Hill said, “and the rich don’t have to struggle.” He continued: “There is currently a ‘death culture’ which does not recognize suppression. You’re not free to choose as you feel,” he said. Mr. Hill felt the 1971 Attica prison riot was the result of prisoners being "treated like dogs.” None of the Attica brothers’ demands were met and they were labelled ‘criminals,’ forced to stand trial, he said. Nearly $3.6 million has been used by the State ‘ to prosecute the Attica Brothers and the State has spent nothing for their defense, charged Mr. Hill. “I want you to understand that what’s happening at Attica is happening to you,” he'added. Destroying illusions Henry Taylor, Black Worker’s Congress representative, wanted to smash the illusion that schools and universities are ah upper class institution. He asserted: “The university is the class instrument of the monopoly capitalist class.” Mr. Taylor added that the gains and concessions the working class had won from the government were only temporary. To meet the oppression, there must also be resistence, he explained. Mr. Taylor, who favors a long-range struggle against the “bourgeoisie,” said it would be possible to “erect the dictatorship of the proloteriat by studying the science of Marxism, Leninism and Mao Tse-tung thought.” He appealed to the members of the Black Nation to concentrate on these philosophies to overthrow the bourgeoisie. ‘ ‘ No more United Auto Workers (UAW) representative Clifford Suggs, candidate for the school board of East High School, said today’s education “needs a change.” The system “has been discriminating against the working class movement since its inception,” he said. Mr. Suggs attacked the IQ testing system by asking: “How can you measure intelligence when you can’t describe it?” The duty of education, according to Mr.' Suggs, is to prepare students for a better life by teaching them how to learn. If they are taught how to learn, they might develop questions which would most certainly lead to change, Mr. Suggs maintained. “Too long has the campus been isolated from the community,’J Mr. Suggs emphasized. “We had better realize that we have one common struggle,” he added. Mr. Shggs complained that studies were not relevant” and that it would be more beneficial for a student to learn how to fill out a college application rather than learn mythology in the sixth grade. ‘ Keep the schools open Describing the conditions of certain Buffalo high schools, Mr. Suggs said some schools would not permit students to bring home books when homework is assigned. If elected to the school board, Mr. Suggs pledged to keep school open after closing time. Mr. Suggs reiterated; “Your struggle is my struggle. If I go out here with the thought that one of you will- join us, then I’ll feel the few minutes I had here were well spent.” todayGRAND REOPENING!!

Prior to his election to Congress in 1962, Ogden Reid was editor and publisher of the New YorkHerald Tribune , Ambassador to Israel (1959-61) and chairman of the New York State Commission on Human Rights. Rep. Reid and his wife made political headlines in 1972 when they announced that they were changing their party affiliation to Democratic after a century-long Republican family tradition. A descendent of Whitelaw Reid (one of the 1892 founders of the party and vice presidential candidate on T Benjamin Harrison’s ticket), Ogden Reid complained that the Republican party was not showing the compassion and sensitivity needed to meet the problems of the average American citizen. Mr. Reid handily won re-election against a Republican sweep of the country, and a Rockefeller-backed opponent. authored the Mr. Reid Freedom of Information Act, which has opened previously closed files containing “non-sensitive” data.

From atop a grassy knoll, several national guardsmen opened fire in the direction of a large mass of students, leaving four dead and nine wounded. The four-year official cover-up of those murders has finally ended. In 1971, an Ohio grand jury absolved the national guardsmen of any blame, and then-Attomey General John Mitchell saw no reason to prosecute. If four executives or gunned down by four bankers had been similarly slain prosecution would overzealous soldiers firing into a mob have been swift and harsh. But since the victims were only students, and antiwar demonstrators at that, the man who indiscriminately threw such protesters in jail during the moratoriums and who now faces 30 years in jail for just looked the other obstructing justice in other areas — — — — way. Fortunately, the investigation of the Kent State murders which John Mitchell effectively quashed for political reasons was re-opened when Elliot Richardson became Attorney General. Last weekend, that investigation arrived at the logical conclusion it should have reached three years earlier: it indicted eight of the national guardsmen for the Kent State murders. The upcoming trial must focus on many crucial questions. To what extent are the eight national guardsmen responsible? What were their orders? Was there a or pre-arranged signal to open fire? Oid they shoot to warn kill? Does not much of the blame lie with their superiors for sending a regiment of ill-trained, overzealous, fully-armed guardsmen into a potentially explosive situation? The moral questions must also be faced, not only by the jury but by our entire society. Like Lt. William Galley, who massacred 22 helpless Vietnamese women and children at My Lai in 1968, are the guardsmen wholly responsible for their actions, or are they partially victims of a military mentality imposed by the State? If they acted on orders, is it not murder by proxy? - Despite the violence of the student demonstration?, how can their superiors justify allowing their agents to arbitrarily open fire at a fleeing mass of students, murdering those who were not even active participants but merely stragglers at the rear of the crowd? Four students are dead. Nothing can ever change that. But it is vitally important that those responsible for the shootings both those that pulled the triggers and those that ordered them onto the campus be brought to justice. Official violence by the State has become the most frightening danger to our society. We had developed a numbness to death.after a decade of bombing and burning peasant villages in Asia, enabling the same murderous tactics to be used against those who protested the inhuman war at home. Forty-three persons were brutally massacred when former Governor Nelson Rockefeller ordered a frontal shooting assault in 1971 against the Attica prison inmates who rebelled because of unbearable living conditions. Despite extensive testimony about arbitrary shootings, reprisals and torture, not one official person has been indicted for that cold-blooded mass murder. Only by bringing the officials as is finally happening in the Kent responsible to Justice State murders after a four-year cover-up can we cleanse our society of continued indiscriminate violence by an increasingly repressive Government. — sysjejn in Boston.

Your report of Friday, 29 March 1974, on the separation of the Biology Department into two divisions is generally accurate except for one misleading statement concerning the required courses in Biology. I recall telling your reporter that students interested in molecular biology are presently short-changed because of the lack of departmental agreement on the program of required courses at both the graduate and undergraduate levels best suited to their needs. For example, they would benefit by a required course in physical chemistry or biophysical chemistry. Your statement seems to imply that there are no required courses at all in Biology, which is of course not true. Jut H.

A strange coalition comprised of Hells Angels, Nazis, convicts and several trustees of Hillcl House seized control of the front office at Hayes Hall. Disguised as several hundred Muellers sandwiches, the entourage slipped past an especially astute honor guard” of Campus Security chosen for their mental acumen in grueling siege situations like this one. The intense mental and physical preparation that the honor guard had received came in handy, for no more than three hours passed before the squad realized that the 700 walking sandwiches (some turkey, others ham on rye toast with pickle) were actually a vicious pack of trained assassins. ‘ Minority sandwiches With this sudden jarring realization, the two honor guards struggled to their feet after days of incessant drinking, shot each other in the leg and returned to their game of ”1 doubt you.” The rebel pack waddled toward the secretary, their appendages still tightly bound by Saran Wrap and cole slaw. Eunice Delwater, the President’s secretary. suspected a trick. “You’re minority students aren’t you?” she asked. “Well, parading around in those silly get-ups won’t help you. Do you think you look African? Well, take seats or perhaps plates. Now that young man in the back is dripping mayonnaise on the carpet, and I just won’t have that.” But the now half-crazed mob was not to be put off. Laughingly, the Hells Angels bound Mrs. Delwater, who proved to be a good sport, allowing several members of the group to tapdance on her windpipe. The more experienced dancers began offering lessons in cha cha, waltzing and the alleycat on Mrs. Delwater (a series of six going for $5.50 or 8 for $7.00 with I.D. card). Administrators overthrown The dancing might have continued indefinitely had not one of the more burly Hillel House rebels gotten hungry. With a grunt, he tore off a large door from the wall and hungrily began eating its vinyl exterior. (The eating habits of Hillel House trustees are notoriously poor; anyone knowing anything about etiquette would realize that the hinges should be eaten first.) The deafening roar outside his office did not prevent University President Robert Ketta from continuing with a task that he had worked on for three consecutive days. He had handled grim student uprisings. ‘Hell no, I wont go!’ by John W. Dean HI Spectrum Staff Writer Shouting T won’t go ... it’s my room, it’# my room,’ President Richard Nixon refused to leave the Oval Office after the U.S. Senate voted to convict him on impeachment charges. Six of the Senate’s Sergeant-at-Arms were in the Oval Office, pulling on Mr. Nixon’s legs and arms, attempting to drag him out from under his desk. After twenty minutes of intense struggle, the men from the Senate left the Oval Office to report the event to the Senate, and request further instructions. Upon their departure, President Nixon placed a call to Dr. Lewis Fielding, Daniel Ellsberg’s former psychiatrist, whom the President has been consulting of late. The substance of their conversation is unknown, but Mr. Nixon was seen jumping back under his desk with his hands behind his head and his head between his knees. Approximately one hour later, after realizing there was no civil-defense drill and the Sergeants-at-Arms were not trying to bring the President to the Air-Raid Shelter, Mr. Nixon issued a statement regarding the Senate s action. Declaring that “Any abdication of this office would further weaken the office of the President for future Presidents,” Mr. Nixon enlisted the help of the “Red-Wig Brigade” led by Mr. E. Howard Hunt to help him retain possession of the White House. ; Red employed In a nationally broadcast speech, Mr. Nixon likened himself to the fictional President Jordan 1 yman in Seven Days in May. “Under no circumstances will I fall prey to the same situation that befell my predecessor. President Lyman. Neither the press, the military, the public, or the United States Congress will aid in the erosion of this office,” he stammered. and the running of a major overwhelming pressure State University with limited know-how at exorbitant cost. Yet his immediate task was far graver, rivaling the building of the pyramids in its enormity. He sat confused and distressed, fcrvishly trying to produce sounds while blowing into an empty Chicklcts box. It was a challenging task and he toyed with the idea of getting College E credit for it. With his typical humility, Dr. Ketta removed his crown (bearing the inscription “In Bob We Trust”) and placed it lightly on his desk. At this point, the rebels marched into the office and surrounded the President. The rebel chieftain Rabbi Zeb Yisroel demanded tb know why he should remain as President. Annoyed by an enormous financial deficits, answer based solely on divine right, Ketta was deposed, (sent to work in the Clement Hall laundry) and replaced by a comparable official, Ronald McDonald. The coup produced several other major repercussions. Drs. Richard Siegel-cow, vice-president for Lunch, and Anthony Lorenzooti, vice-president for Someone’s Affairs, are presently in hiding and thought to be posing as a saleswoman in A.MAA’s and her deafniece. Dr. Bernard Greenbaum has found a post of similar distinction (as his old one) where he can still rely on his unflagging interpersonal skills, and mental alacrity. He is’ a Thruway toll collector outside of Utica, and according to recent interview, “very much enjoys wearing the official hat he has been given.” Richard Milhous Nixon The “Red-Wig Brigade,” it was learned by The Spectrum in an exclusive interview with Mr. Hunt, is made up of convicted Watergate figures, as well as those indicted, and those under suspicion. This comprises 98% of the White Houst staff, or 10,000 people, and the brigade was situated around the White- House at press time. It is anticipated the group will excort President Nixon to the airport in energy-conserving Sherman Tanks, owned and operated by the newly-formed Nixxon Corporation. The brigade is expected to surround Air-Force One in commandeered Boeing 747s on the President’s flight to San Clemente tomorrow Sens. James Buckley (R.C-N.Y.), John Tower (C-Tex.) and Strom Thurmond (D-S. Car.), floor managers for the conviction vote in the Senate, issued a joint statement upon learning of the President’s decision. Speaking before a packed Senate Caucus room, filled with reporters, citizens and Representatives, the conservative Senators said: “We knew he wouldn’t step down, but we had to save face for next year’s re-election campaign.” When asked by reporters what the Senate intends to do about the present situation, the Senators looked dumbfounded. It was apparent the Senators had not considered taking any action on the President’s action, or inaction. “We will implore Julie, Tricia and Mrs. Nixon to seduce the President from the office. Other than that, gentlement, there is little we can do.” The Nixon women are presently searching the South Atlantic for Comet Kohoutek. Executive recordings Rose Mary Woods, the President’s secretary, suggested the entire nation attempts to do the “Woods” dance. Keeping one foot on a button for five consecutive minutes, a dancer must then answer telephones, take dictation and spin around. Ms. Woods said; “If we all try to do that, then we’ll forget about the present non-crisis.” Ms, Woods is a master at the dance, having created it in a critical situation and publicized it through photographs and a recording by “The Plumbers.” The song has climbed to Number One on every record chart in the nation. In an exclusive interview with Vice President Gerald Ford, The Spectrum learned of a conversation Mr. Ford had with Mr. Nixon. The Vice President informed us that he implored the President to leave the office because Mr. Ford wanted to move into the office right away. “He flatly refused, and threatened to send me on a good-will tour if I continued to pressure him,” the Vice President said. Aske; if they thought their investigative reporting has gone to waste in light of today’s developments. Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein, the two Washington Post reporters who linked the White House to the Watergate burglary, had no comment. They refused to answer any questions on that matter. However, Washington Post publisher Kay Graham indicated the two reporters had “played out their options and were eligible for the draft.” �Ladies man It was a well-known fact in dormitory circles that Mr. Regenbogen had been maintaining his own private harem. “I never saw a more aggressive ladies’ man,” said his jealous roommate, who had beicn kicked out of their room 42 times. Discussing her lover’s untimely demise, one freshman girl (who requested that her name be withheld) said Mr. Regenbogen had been upset in recent weeks because he found out his mother had been heavily into quaaludes “of late.” When Mitch heard about his mother being busted, he told me he was taking the first plane to Brooklyn ‘to cop from my mother’,” the freshman girl indicated. Bom in Canarsie in 1953,Mitchell early developed a reputation for having a foul mouth and a heavy Brooklyn accent. When most 2-ycar old Jewish boys were watching Romper Room and learning to say “Mama,” he was busy making obscene phone calls and saying “your mother.” A quick learner, Mitchell entered kindergarten at the age of 13, when most of his friends were getting Bar-Mitzvahed. Several years later, at his own Bar-Mitzvah, he proceeded to embarass his parents by leaving his Haftorah book at home.

Willis met the selection committee’s sole criterion,” explained chairman Cahuna Roberts. ‘That is, Willis was tall. We wanted a tall president.” Mr. Reed, currently a center on the New York Knicks, said he was leaving basketball for the University because he wanted ‘‘an intellectual challenge.’ Mr. Reed is preparing for his new job by taking a remedial reading course at St. Luke’s school for the deaf. Rumors of Dr. Ketta’s departure and Mr. Reed’s takeover have been circulating since last year when Student Association ‘ (SA) officials first proposed Mr. name to the selection committee. Reed’s Sexual misdemeanors Two days after his name was proposed, the committee received a tip from an anonymous caller charging that Mr. Reed had “participated activities.’ Mr bi-sexual Cahuna then in president Peter Reegan; and TV personality Dorothy Kilgalen. Ms. Kilgalen’s name was withdrawn when the committee found out that she had been dead for three years. Lock up the faculty Dr. Reegan, who served as 1970 riots and is best known for having most University’s faculty of the arrested, said he had applied because he wanted to show people that he wasn’t ‘‘as stupid as everybody thought.” He was reported to be the committee’s top choice until he was arrested last month on charges of exposing president during the himself to a kindergarten class. The committee then narrowed the list to two finalists, Mr. Cahuna explained, “Lady Bird and Willis.” Our choice was simple, he said in detailing the rigorous selection procedure. “We the taller simply picked candidate.” Mr, angry Cahuna became when it was suggested that various criteria other than height should have been used in selecting the new University President. launched a full-scale investigation proved which that Willis’ ‘Clyde’ teammate Walter Frazier, had been the Knick guilty of “bi-sexual behavior.” “We didn’t want to be like New York City.

In their grievance, the Lee sisters (Home Lee, Ghast Lee, Ug Lee, and Beast Lee) have charged that Dr. Lecher grades strictly on their curves. In a related development, Norton Hall Director Jim Goober announced today the the Norton Hall staff will conduct an all-out effort to rid the first floor of the Union of these so-called “JAPs.” There has been a tremendous influx of snobby princesses from the Amherst Campus this year, according to Dr. Goober, He emphasized: “We arc particularly concerned With those girls who have a history of sunlamps and nosejobs.’ Meanwhile, Academic Affairs vice-president Bernard Greenbaum issued a statement today that discredits the commonly-held belief that “a girl’s intellect is inversely proportional to the size of her breasts.” He offered the pea-brain intellects of Amherst Campus Japs as proof of this hypothesis. Pleasing and teasing Dr. Greenbaum also criticized these girls (the Japs] for their lack of motivation and disinterest in their schoblwork. ‘They don’t care about classes, all they want are quaaludes and laughing gas,” Dr. Greenbaum maintained. Robert Hunt, Director of Environmental Health and Safety, said: The platform shoes worn by this particular strain of Long Island Jap are neither safe nor attractive. The girls have reportedly been wearing these shoes with “painter’s pants” in an effort to hide the flab at the top of their thighs that has accumulated due to a lack of activity (sexual or otherwise) this winter. Mr. Hunt went on to say, “If they pleased half as much as they have teased, they would be in much better shape in time for the spring 1974 halter top season,” he added. JAPs must register Turning to the economy, Bookstore Manager Tom More announced that he intends to heavily stock the “Jones Beach” type sun reflectors this spring. WNYP1RG announced that they hope to soon complete their consumer study of tanning oils and cremes. They intend to post their results on the Amherst Bus and in the first floor Norton cafeteria. The Student Association has announced that they will be running a registration drive next week to help “keep the JAP’s honest.” According to Jeff Sam, Director of Public Information, males will be asked to register the names and social security numbers of the Japs they have encountered, will be asked to rate them on a scale of l-to-10 as to “action,” and to briefly describe their experiences. When asked to give the names of some of the princesses that have been the subject of this article, Mr. Sam replied: “That’s not necessary . . , we all know who they are . . they know who they are . . . Don’t you?” . MCP ‘Daily News’, ‘Newsweek’ coverage compared by Eggman The media is often accused of slanting its news coverage according to bias, liberal or conservative. In the interests of evaluating the media’s performance, we excerpts from two have compiled publications, the New York Daily News and Newsweek Magazine, on the same news events relating to Watergate over the last two years, so that our readers can compare the emphasis and nuances of their coverage and judge for themselves if any discernable bias exists. 1) Watergate break-in Dailey News: In a third-rate burglary so stupid and ill-conceived that it could not possibly have any connection with highei-ups (which is why we are burying this story on page 17], three frustrated spies and four ex-Cubans were caught by police last night trying to wiretap the Democratic party headquarters in a Washington hotel whose name escapes us. Newsweek: In an event so morally shocking that it could change the course of the 1972 Presidential election, seven underlings, obviously acting on orders, were arrested last week for trying to bug the Democratic party headquarters in Washington’s Watergate Hotel and thereby subvert the two-party competition in favor of the party in power (the Republicans). 2) John Dean s Senate testimony Daily News: His voice quivering, his glasses fogging, his statements contradicting that of every other Watergate witness, the President’s turncoat counsel John Dean shuffled his interpretations yesterday in telling the Senate that President Nixon’s protests against hush money payments were somewhat less than enthusiastic. Newsweek: Dropping bombshells every few minutes which might fatally cripple the Nixon Presidency, former White House counsel John Dean revealed last week that President Nixon explicitly approved hush money payments and executive clemency to silence the Watergate defendants so they wouldn’t reveal their connections to the White House inner circle. 3) Firing of Archibald Cox News: Daily Exercising his constitutional responsibility to dismiss employees from the executive branch, President Nixon yesterday fired Archibald Cox, the highly-partisan, Democratic party sympathizer Special Prosecutor. Newsweek: In a shocking and morally bankrupt breach of his promise to Congress and a political miscalculation that could President Nixon cost him his office massacred Archibald Cox last Saturday night as the Special Prosecutor’s hot breath and his on the President’s neck investigation approaching paydirt became unbearable. 4) 18-minute gap discovered on a tape \ , . — — — — - Daily News: The victim of a cheap and malfunctioning tape recorder like so many other Americans, President Nixon was horrified to announce yesterday that one of the subpoenaed Watergate tapes had mysteriously deyploped an 18-minute buzzing sound which Chief of Staff Alexander Haig attributed to unnoticed tampering by the devil, an old political foe of Mr. Nixon’s. Newsweek: An air of desperation exuded from the White House last week after President Nixon announced that one of the subpoenaed Watergate tapes contained an 18-minuteblank gap which just ‘"happened” to cover Mr. Nixon’s discussion with H.R. Haldeman about dealing with the Watergate break-in and an explanation which no rational citizen or member of Congress is expected to accept. 5) Indictments of 7 of Nixon’s top aides Daily News: Seven former aides in the Nixon Administration were indicted yesterday for formerly conspiring to obstruct justice in their former jobs as one-time aides to the President, since — — dismissed. tighter last week as seven of President Nixon’s most trusted and intimate advisors were indicted for obstructing justice, causing official Washington to shake its collective head and mutter, “How could he not have known?” 6) The impeachment of President Nixon Daily News: In an undisguised triumph for the liberal media, the Eastern elite and other radical and subversive forces which refused to accept the American people’s mandate of 1972, liberals and partisans hostile to the President succeeded yesterday in a political power play to muster enough votes to allow the Senate to consider President Nixon’s conduct in office on its merits. Newsweek: In the long-awaited action which for many months seemed as excruciatingly slow as it did inevitable, the House voted last week to impeach whom the latest Harris President Nixon Poll said six of ten Americans would like to see have a fatal heart attack, three of ten would like to $ee impeached then guillotined, and two of ten just exiled, banished or exorcised and set the stage for Mr. Nixon to either quit ignominously or emotionally plead his case before the Senate, where conviction seems certain. — — Newsweek: As the last hours of the Nixon Presidency slowly tick away, the circle around the Oval Office drew ever Cartwright on campus Dan Blocker of Bonanza fame will speak today at 2 p.m. in Haas Lounge.

You make my head spin with those brutal editorials on the fate of the Colleges and the arming of Campus Security. (I never feel secure without you.) Ooooooh! You’re another il Office The callous disregard for human welfare exhibited by President Nixon's latest actions (whatever they were) are a moral affront to all Americans. Totally consistent with his lifelong policy of increasing the military budget while castrating social spending, his crude insensitivity must only heighten the inevitable drive toward impeachment, which will cleanse the Presidency of Mr. Nixon's morally offensive, totally inhuman and often even smelly presence. The total incompetence which has now enveloped the Federal bureaucracy has underscored the inefficiency on the state level, led by the bumbling Malcolm Wilson. Mr. Wilson, whom insiders privately concede "doesn't know what the hell's going on," approaches the stupidity of Gerald Ford, a mental midget who has difficulty reading his cue cards properly. Mr. Ford's mindless mumbling has caused White House press secretary Ron Ziegler to insist to skeptical newsmen that the Vice-President could so walk and chew gum at the same time. "Listen, fellas," Ziegler told the newsmen, "he's better than Spiro, isn't he?" But the overriding moral bankruptcy which is paralyzing the country, especially the liberal East and the readers of The New York Times and Newsweek, is emanating from the Oval Off ice and the moral cripple who occupies it. The discovery of the secret Nixxon Corporation receiving laundered money from the oil companies only confirms the widespread knowledge that Mr. Nixon is in bed with big business, a fact which has greatly disturbed Pat. An informal poll of frustrated drivers on a three-mile-long gasoline line in New York City produced 12 violent reactions, 3 vomitings and 4 epileptic fitsas soon as the President's name was mentioned. But the most serious offense committed by the slimy far worse than the secret bombing of Cambodia President is his chiseling on his income or the Watergate break-in taxes. For this is an offense which the majority of Americans can fully understand, since they all do it. How can the average, hard-working, middle-America Joe now resist fiddling with his IRS figures when the nation's Chief who earns well in excess of his $200,000 salary Executive is caught taking a $244 deduction for fake every year gasoline bills? That, coupled with Mr. Nixon's heart-rending donation of $1.39 to charity during his first five years in office, have exposed the President for what he really is Tennesse Williams when it comes to writing about the things you love.

His attacks on the media reveal his deep-seated paranoia of anything human, and people are starting to wonder why the President of the United States doesn't talk to anybody except Haig, Ziegler, his teddy bear and his tape recorder. His threat to send B-52's over the nation's football stadiums if the NFL players go on strike is proof of his mental instability and his machismo jock mentality. He has even stopped reading his telegrams from Henry Kissinger, proof positive that he doesn't know what's going on, and well-placed sources reveal he plans to have CBS newsman Dan Rather arrested at his next news conference. The moral callousness with which Mr. Milhous has abused his office has even danaged his standing among the last group to blindly believe Kim, the fourth-graders in the "slow" group. 'This guy subverts the entire country, and 1 get canned for taking a few harmless dollars on the side," laments the former Spiro Agnew. But the lames in Congress lack the courage to do anything except nervously read public opinion polls and hope the whole thing will either go away, resolve itself or be rescheduled for after Election Day. It is obvious that Mr. Nixon will not resign unless promised total immunity, San Clemente, two Air Force One jets and a new tape recorder. Besides, resignation is too easy, and impeachment is far too slow. We must hound Mr. Nixon from office, exile him, banish him, exorcise him, guillotine him, and kick him in the behind as well. Every minute he remains in office is another minute of rising gas prices, official lying, and the cancellation of your favorite TV shows for news bulletins on the latest Watergate revelations (itself an impeachable offense).

Gerald Ford t �Tales from Topographic Oceans Yes Most people don’t realize how difficult it is to write a record review. One encounters so many pitfalls that after a while it seems pointless to plod on any further. The experienced reviewer, hpwever, adroitly sidesteps these obstacles, cleverly weaving his way towards the culmination of a technically perfect review. A myriad tof possibilities are open to you, the reviewer, as you stare at the blank sheet of paper in your typewriter. Should you take a straightforward, cut-by-cut pack-a-wallop, or a hard-nosed approach the-whole-album-sucks attitude? O' iybe a healthy do r of journalistic surrealism to convey to the reader your impressions upon first hearing the disc? Perhaps a short history of the artist and his art, including some little-known . biographical facts and other miscellaneous esoteria, concluding with a where-do-we-go-from-hcrc note of looking to the future, excusing the artist for a “transitional” album. Or maybe a what-thc-hell, no-holds-barred, ass-kickin’, jive-shuckin’, get-down-to-it, rock on approach. All you need do is take youfpick and you’ll soon be on your way, writing brilliant reviews, winning the respect of musicians, the public, your fellow journalists, and raking in cratefuls of free albums as well. Soon you will have the power to make or break an artist. An unkind word in a review will cause thousands to pass up an album they would have greedily snatched from the bins had your review been more favorable. Similarly, the right phrases have the power to rocket an unknown to stardom; It’s all in your hands as the reviewer. But the job is not yet finished! The meat of a good review should consist of more than just an “approach.” :ent reviewer asks himself questions; How long Th< should the review be? Do I like the album? What is my attitude towards this type of music in general? Before you can answer this last question, you must first classify the album. Classical? Jazz? Easy Listening? Acid-rock? Middle-of-the-road? Folk? Glitter-rock? Classical-rock? Jazz-rock? Soul? Folk-rock? 50’s-rock? Once you have pigeonholed the album into a convenient category, you can let loose with the superlatives. It goes without saying that if the album you’re reviewing weren’t an important musical event, yon just wouldn’t be reviewing it. You are therefore perfectly justified in using every known superlative. Fantastic! Fine. Excellent. Incredible! Amazing! A mind-boggler. And if the album doesn’t fit any of these superlatives, then it’s mellow and laid-back; some find down-home pickin’. Be sure to give honorable mention to keyboard wizards and other swift-fingered demons. A reviewer is nothing without his superlatives. And last but certainly not least is the concluding paragraph, where you tie together all the loose ends. -Russell Schoenwetter Speakers’Bureau contracts record-breaking Shoelaces by the Gimp Minutes after Bureau announced Shoelaces’ Non-contributing Editor Speakers Board Chairman Bob Bureau has announced the signing of high school basketball star Tyrone Shoelaces to give a speech in Clark Hall gymnasium on April 31. Shoelaces, a 4-foot, II-inch phenom from Newark, New Jersey, led his H. Rap Brown High School team to the national title. Shoelaces confesses that an addiction to the sport, which he refers to as a “Basketball Jones,” is the secret of his success. His talk will be titled “The socio-cultural factors of being a basketball prodigy in 20th century racist New Jersey.” In leading his team to a record 455 wins this season, Tyrone established a new scoring record (132.957 points per game) as well as leading the league in rebounds, assists, trips to the bathroom, stealing nets and baiting homosexual referees. engagement, the Athletic Department denied reports that Shoelaces will be an instructor at their summer basketball clinic. ‘Tyrone may be the best in the world,” said Basketball coach Leo REICHERTson, “but that doesn’t mean he is qualified to teach.” “Of course we’d love to have him come here and play for us,” REICHERTson continued, praising the youngster’s ability. “But we can’t match the offer he got from NYBITCH (New York Basketball Institute 6f Technology at Champaign Hill). They promised him tuition, room and board, books, a new car and lower Manhattan, New Jersey and southern Connecticut. We may get his teammate Bones Jefferson, the 7-foot, 5-inch forward who plays next to Shoelaces.” Jefferson will graduate Rap Brown High this June after seven years as an all-state selection in basketball and stealing cars. What a drag making NCAA playoffs year after year ... A strong pitching staff and an improved defense will be the keys if the baseball Bulls are to earn a repeat trip to the NCAA playoffs this spring.

The umpire suffered a temporary attack of insanity and allowed all four runners to score, giving Buffalo a 4-3 win over St. Mary’s School for the Deaf. The play was scored as a home run under “Buffalo rules.” ‘That was a fair win, and don't you dare dispute it,” stormed Monkey, raving, ranting and foaming at the mouth to indicate the end of the interview. — No show Wednesday April 3 Capen 140 7 p.m. A STAR IS BORN Dir.

(TS) annual dope-smoking marathon, which began on January 14, ended today at Buffalo’s War Stadium Five regional champions from all over the country tested their physical and mental stamina in the meet. The contestants were: Harry Hemp from Flatbush; Waterpipe Willie from Waco, Texas; Jerry Head from LA.; RoachClip Ralph from Rochester and Jessica J of Jersey City, N.J. The contestants began with a pound apiece, as the three judges looked on: R. Ketter, M. Amico and the honorable Monsieur Zig Zag, flown in from the Turkish border. The action started strong with all five contestants smoking their brains out. Harry Hemp, who was weaned on home-grown Pennsylvania Ave. pot, grabbed an early lead. He was disqualified three-quarters of a pound later when he suffered an asthma attack and was rushed to a hospital in Canarsie. Jerry the Head from LA. entered War Memorial Stadium riding a surfboard, smoking six joints at once and combing his hair back at the same time. The other contestants also started - strong. Keep ’em rolling A six-ton rolling machine was brought in to keep the J’s rolling. Monsieur Zig Zag, wearing a Grateful Dead T-shirt, watched over things and advertised his new Kama Sutra rolling paper. “Draft card and American flag rolling paper sales were a little low,” explained Zig Zag. A peaking crowd of 15 people were on hand as the action moved into the second half, after five pounds. Though far in the lead, Jerry the Head dropped out of when his comb competition broke, creating an emotional disorder. Roach-Clip Ralph from disqualified Rochester was because of his birthplace, and an insistence to drink a Genesee beer with each joint. Bowl vs. joint As the marathon moved into October, it became a two-man race: Jessica J vs. Waterpipe Willie. Jessica J. whose enveloping chest cavity enabled her to inhale an excess of smoke, cleaned out several pipes, including the judges’. The confrontation brought about a contrast in styles: Waterpipe Willie, filling up bowl after bowl, versus Jessica’s, joint-filled mouth. Willie, who filled his waterpipe with everything from strawberry wine to Ncstle’s Quik, choked to death when he filled his tube with Lake Erie water. Thus, Jersey City’s Jessica J “copped” the title. A few minutes after letting out the winning toke, Jessica pulled out a joint and said: "Anybody got a match?” Jessica received $10,000, a pound of Acapulco Gold, and was seen leaving in Monsieur Zig Zag’s Cadillac. Thus War Memorial Stadium was cleared for another stoned-out act; the Buffalo Bills.

And that four channel system was just purchased in Bayside, New York but this report is, as yet, unconfirmed. • Some people have also been wondering: “Where can I get “Four Channel Records” for my “Four Channel System?” Well, two major 33rpm discs have already been released in “Four Channel, 1 ‘Four Charnel Stereo’ Checkout Record (Commandd 1-4Q), a fine test for balance and frequency response employing a Kram Kabot, a part-time lecturer on ‘Customer Behavior Modification in Retail Sales” (BusAd I01Z), is the author of a forthcoming book. The Sound Dollar, and How To Earn It to be released for Christmas gift-giving by Spiff-Ganef Publishers of North Ithaca, New York. If you’ve been just “getting ‘two along” on outdated channel” stereo for the past few years, then you’ve been missing out on one of the wildest new experiences that audio has to offer: “Four Channel Sound.” “Four Channel Stereo” (or “Quad,” as the real “hi-fi buffs” are calling it these days) puts you right in the middle of a symphony orchestra, hearing music just as the flautists do. Some prospective buyers have “When you been asking: introduced stereo, you said 1 needed two channels because I have two ears. Why do I need four channels now, even though I still have two ears?” Posing this question is like asking why you need four wheels on your car even though you only have two feet.

Actually, that s not a large price to pay for the great improvements that “Four Channel Sound” has to offer. Thumbs Down on Discounts One of the snottier questions that the ‘cheapie” crowd has been asking these days is; “Can I get a price on ‘Four Channel Stereo’?” Well maybe you can and maybe you can’t, but one of the best things happening in audio today is the growing use of monopolistic fair trade laws and price control agreements that may soon eliminate “discounts” altogether, reminding people that you get what you pay for and the kind of government you deserve.” Fair trade and price control get “put-down” a lot these days ‘ (mainly by cry-baby “consumer advocates” who wouldn’t know a yearly statement if they fell over it), but actually these laws and agreements are good for the dealer and even good for the — customer. Think of all the boring hours you might spend trying to save a measly 30_or 40 per cent on your “Four Channel” system, shopping for wasteful and bothersome “discounts.” In addition to your inconvenience, discounts drive audio prices down, frazzling the nerves of hi-fi dealers and salesmen alike.

At the same time, the “mushrooming backlog of drug cases” is “clogging the courts,” explained Judge Frank Bayger, who heads one of the state’s new drug courts. The backlog in Erie County courts has increased from 254 cases to 360 cases since last fall, a clogging which many critics of the law predicted as it went into effect last September 1. “Either we have failed to educate the public, or else drug users are not concerned” about the harsher penalties, said Judge Bayger. Or perhaps users are ignoring - — the law because of a habit or because of the money involved, he speculated. “A large part of the increase in arrests is in marijuana and other soft drugs,” said Captain Kevin Connors, head of the Buffalo Police Department’s Narcotics Squad. Hard drug arrests are down, he indicated, and statistics show that heroin and cocaine arrests have dropped steadily since September 1, although they picked up slightly after January. ‘The law won’t have much impact until some offenders are sent away,” Captain Connors predicted. ‘The law had a substantial impact at first, but now it’s wearing off,” commented Erie County Sheriff Michael Amico. “Heroin dealers are becoming more cautious,” he said. ‘The new law may have affected supply there may be less traffic in hard drugs.” Michael L. D’Amico, Chief Criminal Deputy for the Sheriffs Department, agreed: “Dealers are moving underground. They have apprehensions about selling, and are extremely careful about selling to strangers.” Mr. D’Amico belives that hard drugs such as heroin and cocaine are “less readily available,” and that therefore the new drug law has had some effect. He noted an increase in prices of hard drugs such as heroin and cocaine since the new law took effect. “With the increase in the risk, the dealers wanted an increase in their profit margin,” Mr. D’Amico said. - Drug arrests by the Buffalo Police have increased from 36 each month in 1973 to 44 each month since the new drug law took effect. Buffalo Police also made 54 more drug arrests in January and February than in the same period in 1973. Since Captain Connors indicated that hard drug arrests are down, many of the increased number of arrests must be for soft drugs like marijuana and hashish. One section of the new drug law which most people aren’t familiar with is an option available to those caught with 1/4 ounce or less of marijuana. If the person has no prior drug record, he may apply for an “Adjournment in Contemplation of Dismissal” (ACD). Awarded at the judge’s discretion, this plea allows for the dismissal of the drug charge, and if the person is not arrested on drug charges for six months after the court ruling, any indication of the arrest is expunged from his record. As of September 1, mandatory life sentences became law for posession and sale of certain “major” narcotics such as heroin, cocaine, opium and morphine, regardless of the quantity. Also eliminated were most forms of plea bargaining, in which a defendant is permitted to plead guilty to a lesser charge in return for information on major narcotics distributors. Critics predicted that this would further insulate big-time drug dealers and add thousands of trials to the overburdened courts, since plea bargaining is a relatively fast way to dispose of a case. Former Governor Nelson Rockefeller, who proposed the law in even harsher form than that passed by the State Legislature, claimed that adding 100 additional judges in special drug courts would take care of the new influx of cases. “What’s discouraging is that we’re falling further behind,” said Judge Bayger. Because of the harsh penalties, many drug cases are harder to dispose of, and defense lawyers try to drag out proceedings by taking advantage of legal technicalities simply because in the face of a mandatory life sentence, there is no other hope. Many judges have criticized the law because of the lack of flexibility allowed in sentencing; a judge must often impose a life sentence “whether he likes it or not,” said Ken Norwich, a New York Civil Liberties Union attorney. Many policemen feel the limitations on plea < - bargaining have "tied their hands” in seeking to elicit information from the small-time user about higher-ups. The new law removed marijuana and hashish from the list of dangerous drugs, but first offenders possessing more than one ounce of grass still face a 1-5 year minimum sentence or 15-year maximum at the judge’s discretion. Possession of one or two joints carries a one year maximum sentence with the minimum anything less than that. But possessing from 1/4 ounce to one ounce of marijuana (or more than 25 joints) carries a maximum of 3-7 years and a minimum of one year. “The new laws have not stopped people from using and dealing drugs,” said a Buffalo lawyer who preferred to remain nameless. “People have not seen the effects of the new law. The court process is too slow.” Drug traffic may decrease, however, when some life sentences are given out, he said; “Seeing a friend or acquaintance being put away for life should discourage many people from dealing.” The courts are much harsher since the new laws,” said the lawyer. He cited one case where a man was charged with possessing 1.9 ounces of marijuana and was sentenced to five years in prison. Also, less people are getting off due to illegal search, as judges are less likely to dismiss a case where there is a question of illegal search, he indicated. The New York State penalties for marijuana, considered harsh by many, are not necessarily indicative of a nationwide trend. In Oregon, for instance, marijuana was decriminalized last fall, with possession of one ounce or less a misdemeanor similar to a parking violation. Possession of one ounce of grass there carries a maximum $100 fine and no criminal record. The purpose of the Oregon law is to focus on the dealer instead of the user. Most college-educated people can’t understand why marijuana has not,been legalized, especially when alcohol, which many consider more harmful, is legal. It seems to them that most people would be in favor of decriminalizing marijuana like in Oregon. However, this is not the case. ‘'70 per cent of the population is against the passing of a law legalizing the sale and use of marijuana,” according to a recent Harris Poll which surveyed a —continued on psg* 8 — �GSA elections President and vice president win after running unopposed by Diane Miller Spectrum Staff Writer Tony Schamel was elected President of the Graduate Student Association (GSA) Tuesday night at a GSA Senate meeting which stressed the importance of finding out exactly what graduate students want. The candidates for president and administrative vice-president ran unopposed. The final results were: President: Tony Schamel, 23; Maharaj Ticku, I; Terry Fefilippo, 1; John Greenwood, 1. Administrative vice-president: Bill Olcszko, 24; George Kobas, 1;Mike Rosen, 1. Student Affairs vice-president: Lisa Richer, 24; Vincenzo Milione, 4; Mike Rosen, 1. External Affairs vice-president: George Boger, 23; Vincenzo Milione, 3; Ed Kowak, 1. Treasurer: George Kobas, 13;Lou Kelsch, 11. A -u Senate impoalait “Graduate students have definite interests,” Mr. Schamel commented after the election, emphasizing that he will “look after” those interests. He will seek to establish a “smooth operation in the GSA Senate.” Mr. Schamel added; ‘The Senate body is students, and they are the ultimate control.” To make the GSA Senate more viable, he plans to “have the Senate notify me as to what actions it thinks are necessary. I expect to make decisions that are appropriate for graduate students’ interests, and to work effectively with faculty and Administration so that there are good relations between students,” he asserted. Mr. Schamel’s main priority is “legislative action,” specifically the. financing of graduate education. “Several * * Tony Schamel appointees are working in that area, and I will utilize them to that end,” he explained. His other concerns include internal student affairs, which he hopes will be handled through proper channels by the GSA executive most closely associated with the specific issues. Prison college plans slashed from budget Inmates at the Bedford Hills Correctional Facility will not be given a chance to move back into society and lead productive lives, because the proposed State University college for prisoners at Bedford Hills has been slashed from the State budget. The program, approved by the SUNY system and SUNY Chancellor Ernest Boyer in November, would have allowed male and female inmates to enroll full-time in a SUNY college at Bedford Hills for two-year associate degrees in the liberal arts and sciences. In voting against the proposed $500,000 expenditure, opponents argued that the Bedford Hills College would duplicate existing prison education programs offered by local SUNY campuses. Others felt the college should be expanded to include the working poor before accommodating prison inmates. Bedford Hills College would have been the only tuition-free unit within the SUNY system, with fully-transferrable credits to other SUNY colleges. It also would have served as a pilot program in a possible network of inmate educational facilities. The idea for the college grew from studies undertaken to improve the prison system following the Attica rebellion in 1971. There are no plans at present to seek funding for the prison college in the State Legislative’s supplemental budget. Mr. Oleszko, who was elected Administrative vice-president, plans to keep the graduate students aware of “what their student fees are doing for them.” He explained: “I will keep students aware of the referendum coming up next spring, and make it known when GSA is sponsoring something.” Mr. Oleszko would like to see new clubs in the GSA, and plans “minor physical restructuring of the GSA office for better communications.” Opposes cutbacks Ms. Richer, the new Student Affairs vice-president, plans to safeguard the current tuition waiver program for graduate students and find additional funds for incoming students. She will also work to increase general student participation in GSA. Affirmative Action, a national program seeking to aggressively recruit women and minorities in University hiring, is the top priority of External Affairs vice-president-elect George Boger. He will fight cutbacks in teaching assistants, research assistants, stipends and financial assistance, and will oppose tuition increases. “1 would also like to develop and maintain graduate student participation in departmental policies that affect them,” Mr. Boger stressed, including admissions, faculty appointments, and development of academic programs. Mr. Boger also supports a “shift in educational priorities” to develop public, as opposed to private, education. He will also work for increased participation on Governance committees and more coordination between internal and external affairs. Mr. Kobas, Treasurer-elect, wants the allocations to clubs funded by GSA distributed more equally. He plans to use surveys to help the Finance Committee “respond better to how students want their fees spent,” and to work more closely with other GSA Executive Committee members. “Bringing lecturers and films not supplied by the graduate clubs or Sub-Board to the campus” is another of Mr. Kobas’ goals. Housing for married students, health care, entertainment, Scholar Incentive, and unionizing were other issues discussed at the election meeting. GSA is waiting for an opinion from SUNY Legal Counsel to see whether student fees can be used for housing. Ketter questions legality of studentfeesfor health care President Robert Ketter is still awaiting a legal opinion from University legal counsel John Leach before deciding whether student-funded health including Sub-Board’s services at this University Birth Control Clinic, pregnancy counseling center and clinical laboratory can continue to be financed by student fees. Mr. Leach is studying a legal memorandum from State University of New York counsel Walter Relihan to determine whether “the use of mandatory fees for medical supplies and services is outside the intent of mandatory fee guidelines,” a stance that has been taken by Anthony Lorenzetti, associate vice president for Student Affairs. Dr. Lorenzetti’s veto last month of expenditures by Sub-Board’s Birth Control Clinic unleashed a flood of protests from Sub-Board officials; it also raised the entire issue of whether student fees can be spent for health care. The ensuing controversy prompted President Ketter to seek clarification of — — the fee guidelines from Albany; Dr. Ketter is still awaiting his counsel’s interpretation of the “legalistic language” of Dr. Relihan’s memo before making a decision. Dr. Ketter denied at a Faculty-Student Association (FSA) meeting Tuesday that FSA was trying to get into the health care business, adding that this University is “bucking strong SUNY positions” in keeping student-run health care going. While awaiting clarification of the legal opinion, Dr. Ketter has allowed Sub-Board to honor past financial commitments, but has refused to permit the Health Care Division to use student fees for future expenses. Meanwhile, Sub-Board has been given the go-ahead to set up an income generating “revolving account” (which does not receive subsidies from mandatory student fees) to continue its operations. This has already forced a price increase in student health services, according to Healthcare Division director A1 Campagna. Europe-Israel-Africa-So.

Passed last Monday by the New York State Legislators, the TAP proposal originally allotted increased financial aid primarily to students attending private colleges and to low-income students entering the SUNY system. At the same time, it decreased awards to incoming, middle-income SUNY students. SASU opposed the bill in this form and successfully lobbied for the “Save-Harmless Proposition.” This amendment entitles students entering college to the same financial awards they are presently eligible for, and will cost an additional $1 to $2 million a year. “That’s $1 to $2 million it will save the students each year,” commented Ray Glass, SASU Legislative leader. Under the present Scholar Incentive Program, a student can be awarded from $100 to $600 depending on income. TAP will provide $100 to $1700 for students entering private colleges and from $100 to full tuition to those entering the State University, also contingent on income. Proponents of the program hope it will allow high school graduates greater freedom of choice between schools. The overall cost of TAP will require a $71.5 million increase above present allocations. As the TAP program is phased in over the next four years, the Scholar Incentive Program will gradually be eliminated and phased out. TAP will not affect students presently in college, but will provide increased aid to students entering college after June 1, 1974. “This victory for SUNY students represents more than just financial gain," said SASU President Brian Petraitis. “It is a strong indication that we are able to successfully speak for ourselves on matters representing the best interests of public higher education Students, as a political force in New York and independent agent for change,” Mr. Peti SASU’s legislative victory. The end of the hungry diner: seconds table to be restored by Amy Diinkin Campus Editor Hungry board contract students will no longer have to growl about meager meals. A motion for Food Service to reinstate the unlimited seconds table at Monday-to-Friday inner meals was unamiously passed Tuesday after some debate by the board of directors of the Faculty-Student Association (FSA). Food Service estimated that a seconds table for the Goodyear and Amherst cafeterias would cost future.” Most members agreed that increased food costs, along with the demand for a seconds table, would compel FSA to raise board contract prices when they are reviewed in May. Explaining that Food Service is one of the only units in the State without a compulsory meal plan, President Robert Ketter also asked FSA to consider whether Food Service should continue “to maintain as great a degree of flexibility as possible.” Friday, 29 March 1974 The Spectrum Page three . . �Bio Department to split over conflicting views they would operate better alone.

In the Buffalo area, blood costs about $25 to S30 per unit (a unit equals one pint), and in an operation requiring 40 units of blood, this can run into quite a sum of money. In areas other than Buffalo, a unit of blood may run as high as $80. Fortunately, beginning April 8, this University will put a new blood policy into effect in conjunction with the American Red Cross. On April 8, the Red Cross blood donor recruitment staff will be in Norton Hall from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. to collect blood from students, faculty, and employees who volunteer their arms. In return, all students, faculty, and employees as well as their relatives (parents, grandparents, children, spouses, in-laws, and siblings of unmarried persons) will be covered for an unlimited supply of blood anywhere in the United States or Canada. The usual Red Cross policy is that any relatives of donors are automatically covered. This presently covers about 30% of the students at this University, according to Peter von Borg, director of Recruitment for the Greater Buffalo Regional Chapter. The new policy, which goes into effect on April 8, the same day that blood will be collected in Norton Hall, will offer unlimited coverage to every University student, faculty member, and employee. In return, the University must come up with 1200 units of volunteer blood within the next year. - — “Out of 25,000 students, 1200 units is a very small amount, and within realistic limits, we expect to have no trouble attaining this amount,” said Mr. von Borg. “We expect to get about 200 units on April 8. We are only sorry that our staff cannot accommodate more donors, because we are sure that many more students will be willing to donate.” Blackstock, Laurie field for donor recruitment, representative expects to return to this campus sometime this summer. Several more visits are planned for next fall to collect the remainder of the 1200 units. The Greater Buffalo Regional Chapter of the Red Cross recently received a cancellation of 800 units from one of its industrial banks and is running a severe deficit. They are greatly in need of any help they can get, and are hoping that volunteers from this University will strengthen their blood supply. The Buffalo community, explained Mr. von Borg, needs 300 units per working day. As of July 1, 1974,total coverage will take effect in the city of Buffalo, as it is already in effect in the suburbs, thereby covering 2 million persons. “We have only been collecting 67,000 units in a year,” said Mr. von Borg, “but we expect this figure to rise to 74,000 for 1974-75. However, with the present amount we can supply 90,000 recipients by separating the blood into its components, using the same blood to aid five patients at once.” The Red Cross program is licensed by the Federal government and maintains standards established by the US. Public Health Service for biological products. Physicians, nurses, and qualified technologists supervise technical aspects. Page four The Spectrum Friday, 29 March 1974 . . while Red Cross volunteers do the non-technical work. The entire process of donating, brief physical which includes a examination, filling out forms of medical history, and refreshments takes 45 minutes, while the actual donation will only take 7 minutes. Students who wish to donate can make an appointment at the Red Cross booth in Norton Hall to save themselves time, although persons without an appointment will also be welcomed. It is expected to be crowded, as the staff is limited, so prospective donors should not be discouraged by long lines, but are advised to return an hour later when accommodation may be better. Donors should eat well before coming. There are several criteria used for deferment, and the donor should be aware of these before signing up. The donor must be between 17 and 65 years, and weigh at least 110 pounds. Donors with a history of hepatitis are permanently deferred, while those exposed to jaundice or hepatitis are deferred for six months. Persons taking oral antibiotics will be deferred for two weeks, and for one month following penicillin injections. Infectious mononucleosis will be deferred for six months following recovery. There are several other causes for deferment, but donors should not be discouraged, and can return after the appropriate time period. One person may donate up to five times in one year. When donating blood on April 8, students, faculty, and employees should credit it to this University. Then, when they or any of their family requires blood, they can contact A1 Campagne, director of Sub-Board’s Health Care Division Most patients will only need red cell transfusions because the red cell contains hemoglobin, which is needed for oxygen Several proteins from the plasma are used as derivatives. These are serum albumin, used in the treatment of shock and correction for low blood protein; gamma globin, used as antibodies against some diseases; and fibrinogen, essential in the formation of blood clots. The platelets can be given to leukemia victims to stop bleeding, while these cells also have an important role in blood clotting. Hemophiliacs can benefit from the cryoprecipitate, an enzyme which helps the blood to clot. The blood is separated into these derivatives by centrifugation. Once separated, the platelets can only be stored for 24 hours, while whole blood may be stored for 21 days. Thus, in the event a leukemia patient needs platelets, a donor will have to be telephoned immediately for donation. When blood transfusions were first performed, the vein or artery of the donor had to be sewn to the recipient. Later, tubes were used to connect the veins of donor and recipient, although this allowed little control over the amount that could be transfused. Along with progress, it was discovered that the best method was to extract the donor’s blood into a bottle containing an anticoagulant solution, allowing the blood to be refrigerated until needed. It is stored at 39 degrees—43 degrees F. The predominant medical uses for blood arc for anemia, shock, blood diseases, low protein, and burns. �Commen Arthur Eve: frantic cries, questionable motives by Gary Cohn Campus Editor It is sad to see an honorable' man pursuing worthy goals in a dishonorable way. But that is exactly what State Assemblyman Arthur Eve is doing in his endeavor to pressure the State University of Buffalo to step up its Affirmative Action program for the hiring of black faculty and staff. Specifically, Mr. Eve has accused this University of racial discrimination in its hiring practices. He has based this allegation primarily on incorrect statistics on the number of black misguided faculty and information about who is eligible for tenure. Mr. Eve has repeated his charges in a series of letters to ■ University President Robert copies of these letters to scores of state legislators, University officials and civil rights groups, as well as the local and student press. Curiously, Mr. Eve’s letters to Dr. Ketter charging racial bias always arrived at Dr. Ketter’s office last, lending support to Dr. Ketter’s “concern” Ketter has sent and that the purpose of Mr. Eve’s letters were not that of securing information, but rather that of securing election publicity by attacking this University. of black faculty by bringing forth data compiled by the campus Office of Equal Opportunity. Dr. Ketter has provided facts, while Mr. Eve has cited incorrect warped statistics and interpretations of these statistics. And yet Mr. Eve has called Dr. Ketter a liar, and said that “Ketter doesn’t deserve to be president.’’ Political circus Mr. Eve’s publicity stunts, political shenanigans, and baseless charges have to be hired, even though an adequate or moderately qualified white will also be hired. have* actively been attempting to do.

Under this practice which was widely used in the past a — — Yearly has reported that President Ketter called all the unit heads (department/chairman, provosts, etc.) into his office some time ago and “raised hell about chiseling on Affirmative Action.” How well Dr. Ketter’s message was carried out is still unknown. Eliminating abuses Mr. Eve should be addressing himself to wiping out the abuses unfortunately obscured the real issue: How can the Affirmative Action program be improved? First the facts, as compiled by the campus Office of Equal Opportunity. There are currently 64 blacks on the University’s instructional staff. This constitutes 4.6% of the total faculty. During the latest hiring period, 5.6% of the teaching openings were filled by blacks, increasing the proportion of black faculty members. non-teaching its Among professional personnel, 13.5% of the employees are black. And the State University of Buffalo is sixth in the nation among public universities in the proportion of black students. Needed: more black PhD’s When hiring new faculty, the University is required to follow a Affirmative Action rigorous program to solicit minority and Post office snafus? candidates. Mr. Eve explained these delays women as due to “deficiencies” in the Unfortunately, the total number postal service, but it quite of blacks among persons in the unlikely that such deficiencies entire country who hold PhD a ranges from could have accounted for the time degrees low lag (approximately four days) estimate of 9.8% to a high of 2.0%. twice. Basically, there arc two ways Additionally, Mr. Eve is supposedly preparing a lawsuit against this University for racial discrimination. When questioned about exactly what charge he would make and what remedy he would request, Mr. Eve had no answer. This leads to a belief that Mr. Eve’s talk of a lawsuit was only talk, or an obscure threat to blackmail the University. Mr. Eve has also accused Dr. Ketter of “covering up the facts” by manipulating and distorting statistics. In fact. Dr. Ketter has responsibly provided the press with the statistics on the number of assessing the University’s black faculty ratio of 4.6%. Compared to the tiny pool of black applicants with PhD’s (most faculty hired must have PhD’s), there is a significant number of black faculty. But compared to 16% black population the statewide, the University’s total of black faculty is a paltry number. One way of remedying the to increase the situation is in numbers of blacks undergraduate, graduate and professional programs, as the University’s medical and law necessary to increase black faculty now. Breaking down long-standing racial barriers in the departments, where most of the hiring and recruitment decisions are made, is essential. legal compliance While to Affirmative Action requires that job applications be made available to blacks, nothing requires a department to hire a qualified black instructor. For instance, the so-called practiced “supernigger system” by some departments means that a black must be “super department chairman or senior professor would often call a friend at another University and ask him to recommend someone at that institution. Once this was done, the department could then seem to follow all the specified Affirmative Action procedures without ever giving prospective candidates a genuine chance. While these practices may not be widespread, they do occur, thereby limiting the number of black faculty members. History Department chairman Clifton “suppernigger of the and buddy-boy” systems, in the specific and limited number of cases where they do exist.

Mr. Eve’s efforts to provide a real answer to this dilemma would bring the University a lot closer to the racial parity that both he and Dr. Ketter desire than will his frantic cries of racism. Get to work, Mr. Eve New Paltz students rally A return to the spirit of the sixties took place this week as almost 1000 students took over the administration building at the State University College at New Paltz Tuesday afternoon. While the news magazines are writing about student apathy, approximately 500 students involved in New Paltz’s student government plus other concerned students held a rally to discuss the college’s problems, and to rescue the school from what one spokesman termed “a trend back to more traditional methods.” The students then proceeded to take over the nine-story administration building, occupying it and setting up their headquarters on the fifth floor. An editor from the New Paltz student newspaper. The Oracle said that this was “not a strike,” since classes and campus life are continuing, “but a resistance movement.” There were three basic reasons, all relating to recent state budget cuts, which prompted the students to act: 1) the objection to the abolishment of the experimental studies program; 2) the firing of three women faculty members; and 3) the refusal to rehire Prof. Chakravaty of the Philosophy Department. Other issues concerned the threat of mandatory housing and food contracts for freshmen and sophomores and the threat to change the prominent , grading policy. As of Wednesday, the only student acted upon was the reinstatement of Prof. Chakravaty. Ernest L. Boyer, Chancellor of the State University, said that the Professor’s salary would be paid by a special chancellor’s fund that he administers. On Wednesday afternoon. New Paltz’s President Coffman conference with student held a representatives; the outcome of this meeting was unknown as The Spectrum demand that went to press. was , After Tuesday’s takeover, the rallies continued through Wednesday, being held twice a day, and are expected to continue through the next few weeks. There were also continuous workshops being held throughout the day The students' plan, according to their literature, is to use "hit-and-run actions" in which they will periodically take over a building for an hour or two in the coming weeks. While the media has constantly been proclaiming the death of student activism, many New Paltz students don’t agree. “The student government,” said a spokesman, “has been receiving calls of support from many of the other state universities. The New Paltz students are hoping that this will just be a beginning to a new movement.” Ellen Eckstein Friday, 29 March 1974 . The Spectrum . Page five �News analysis Fac-Sen shows limited scope on grading option by Richard Korman Contributing Editor President Ketter’s veto of the plus/minus grading option passed by the Faculty Senate was a victory for the proposal’s many critics but for others only indicates serious deficiencies in academic policymaking at this University. The proposal to shower undergraduates with A-minuses and B-phisses, made by Biology Professor Harold Segal, amended a motion calling for the retention of the ABCDF system, by Lionel Lewis, chairman of the Fac-Sen Grading and Evaluation Committee. Dr. Lewis spoke only briefly in favor of the motion on behalf of the Grading and Evaluation Committee, citing last October’s — student referendum and a committee survey as evidence that most people favored ABCDF over any alternatives. Dr. Segal pointed out that his amendment was simply the suggestion of last year’s Grading and Evaluation Committee, chaired by Joel Raynor. Those suggestions were tabled by last year’s Fac-Sen and were not acted upon until Dr. Segal brought them up again in the form of his plus/minus amendment. Several Faculty-Senators have strongly hinted that there was very little actual research behind this year’s Grading and Evaluation Committee call for retaining ABCDF. The Committee’s failure to convincingly argue for ABCDF left the door open for the Senate to be persuaded toward plus/minus. Opposition to the plus/minus amendment came almost exclusively from sources outside the Grading and Evaluations Committee: most notably the Student Association, Undergraduate Dean Charles Ebert, and was MM*iaSaoAiuu5? Mel Brooks' by Dr. Ketter. It would seem that a well-prepared Grading and Evaluations Committee might have been able to offer compelling arguments supporting their own proposal on the floor of the Faculty-Senate, and defeated Dr. Segal’s amendment then and there. Instead, Dr. Segal presented by far the better argument at the time. “Dr. Segal’s argument convinced me that the quantum leap from A to B was too great, stated Physics Professor Jonathan Reichert after the meeting. While Dr. Reichert and other Faculty-Senators may have been convinced at that one solitary meeting, the arguments for adding plusses and minuses to grades have been totally refuted at all levels of the University. finally axed A, B, C: nebulous And while everyone has been taking a stance on the issue, few of the arguments have been well-documented. Issues of grading accuracy and increased or decreased competition are moot; Grades are by nature abstract and lend themselves only to nebulous discussions of measuring education. The arbitrary nature of A, B and C precludes any opportunity for hard documentary evidence. Much controversy has centered around conflicting interpretations of last October’s SA referendum on grading, and has raised doubts as to the future use of referendums as measures of student opinion. Several spokesmen believe the referendum results show that students do not want a plus/minus option; others contend the referendum demonstrated a tendency toward plus/minus grading; still others assert that the results were evenly split and have no meaning at all. “The results of the referendum are ambiguous and can be interpreted any way you want,” asserted SA Academic Affairs coordinator Mark Humm, Many Faculty-Senators choose to openly ignore student referendums. Dr. Segal did not consider the results of last October’s referendum significant. Others did take it into account. “1 don’t feel bound by a referndum, although I am influenced by it,” Dr. Reictiert explained. In the aftermath of a Presidential veto, the Faculty-Senate now faces the unpleasant situation of having been caught in what many feel was a rash act. Dr. Ebert described the passage of the plus/minus option as “one man’s opinion and a quick vote.” The Senators have fumbled away a good deal of their own credibility. The meaning of Dr. Ketter’s veto is difficult to discern among the poorly-defined powers of the Faculty-Senate and Administration. Uncertainty over who has the final say on academic decisions is acknowledged by both groups. A consensus agrees, however, that a great deal of power resides in the President’s office, especially with the vice-president for Academic Affairs, and that little or none rests with the students. This fact is obvious to anyone present at last semester’s Faculty-Senate debate on the Reichert Prospectus for the Colleges. There, student spokesmen were prevented from discussing the Colleges in a political context, which for many was the most salient aspect of the debate. As grading moves further away from vague speculation about accuracy and competition, it surfaces as the political question of why grades exist; a question as inherently political as the nature of the Colleges. The Faculty-Senate is a deliberative body operating according to strict parliamentary procedure. By nature, it can only function on a very technical and pragmatic level which ignores the broad, more meaningful sense of many controversial topics. One disgusted member of the Colleges Coalition characterized the Faculty-Senate proceedings as “Parliamentary bourgeois bullshit.” When looked at from any realistic perspective, it is just that. atvD.-asr- aaoo 2:00 9:25 11 i iJ tj f|t%cS m IUUEVARD MALL III * WAGABA f AUS HYP -«37-«JOO The grandest musical of them all) 2:00 LUCY MAMI 4 30 7 ,5 9 35 SENECA MALI- I WtSTMNK* >36-3413 • THE THREE MUSKETEERS'’ 2-4 6 8 10 I® p.m. SENECA MALL II WIST StNtCA • VflV 2:00 3:56 5:50 7:46 9:45 JjAAI DETAIL s TKANSITIID.atMAINST. 1 >36-3413 JACK NICHOLSON Joanne Woodward • A I A 632-1080 Summer Wishes, Winter Dreams 2:00 3:50 5 40 7:30 9:20 m » II EASTERNIU LS TRANSIT ANSn RD.

This deterioration of Americans’ faith in their elected officials has brought about a questioning of the entire system of representative democracy. It would be ideal to be able to assume that the men we elect to office are both noticed competent and honest. Honesty has little primarily in its absence tradition in our government. But competence is the very foundation of the nation’s political system. Elected officials have grown rich catering to clandestine private and personal interests, while ignoring the general will of the public. Moralistic critics have sharpened their talents hurling criticism at the politicians for years, but have never been able to go much further because of the talent with which the representatives have covered up their transgressions. This undesirable set-up has cultivated the feeling that all politicians are corrupt, but has also lent credence to the belief that our government runs on this corruption. - - - - - — imagination. Half thought-out policies which would confuse the American people if properly implemented are not such a bad idea. It is only when these plans are abandoned before completion that the foolishness of the Nixon Administration can be seen. Contrary to the will of the Founding Fathers, and in direct contradiction to the solemn intent they attached to the official impeachment procedures, President Nixon will probably be charged with the simplest of all violations. High crimes and misdemeanors and acts of political treachery will be forced to take a back seat to the one striking flaw of the Nixon Administration, incompetence. If only they had foreseen the pitfalls of incompetence. If only Mr. Nixon had taken the none-too-subtle hint given him by the electorate in 1960 and again in California in 1962, we might all have been spared the discomfort of not knowing what is going to happen next in Washington.

The National Commission on Marijuana and many other prestigious persons and agencies have recommended that marijuana be decriminalized. But the first professional study suggesting that marijuana smoking may be harmful has just been released. ‘There is direct evidence of cellular damage” in man from habitual marijuana smoking, according to a research group at Columbia University in New York City. The four-man research team, headed by Dr. Gabriel C. Nahas (author of the book, Marijuana The Deceptive Weed), said there was evidence of cellular damage to the lymphocytes [white blood cells] of habitual marijuana smokers. - Smokers have fewer white cells The tests were conducted on 132 volunteers (81 non-smokers and 51 smokers). The 51 pot smokers, ages 16 to 35, said they used Cannibis products (marijuana, hashish, etc.) exclusively, at least once a week for at least one year. On the average, the users said they had smoked either marijuana or hashish four times a week for four years. The results of the study were published in January, and showed tHat the white cells’ ability to to reproduce was 40% less in regular divide marijuana smokers than in non-smokers.

THC is currently being tested for possible pharmacological uses in medicine. Breakthroughs in the study of THC might enable blood disorders to be controlled or prevented sometime in the future. One such possibility is the reduction of white blood cells in people suffering from leukemia (a disease resulting in an excess of white blood cells). Not against decriminalization “The possibility definitely exists” that THC could be used to treat blood disorders, said Gary Grandusky, a representative from Dr. Nahas’ office, “but Dr. Nahas doesn’t like to talk about it, because so far, there is no proof.” THC is also being studied as an immunosuppressant (reducing the immunity) in transplant patients. Success in this study would mean fewer rejections of an organ acquired by a transplant. As a result of his findings, Dr. Nahas requested a “thorough reappraisal” of the report filed by the National Commission on Marijuana, which last year recommended “the decriminalization of marijuana and related drugs.” “Dr. Nahas is not definitely against decriminalization” of marijuana, said Mr. Grandusky, “but he feels that the new findings should be incorporated into their report.” Page eight The Spectrum .

In one impromptu speech early this week, he noted that Chile “was not swarming with CIA agents’.” A week earlier, on September 29, 1970, Robert Berrellez, ITT field operative, contacted Hal Hendrix, another ITT field operative, concerning the upcoming confirmation of Allende as President, saying: “A more realistic hope among those who want to block Allende is that a swiftly deteriorating economy will touch off a bank runs, factory bankruptcies, etc. wave of violence, resulting in a military coup... Undercover efforts are being made to bring about the bankruptcy of one oj two of the major savings and loans associations. This is expected to trigger a run on banks and the clousure of some factories, resulting in more unemployment.” ITT has assets equal to the combined Gross National Products of Paraguay, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Haiti, Bolivia and Chile, and can weild its power almost at will, claims NACLA. Jack Anderson summarized: “ITT operates its own worldwide foreign policy unit, foreign intelligence machinery, counter-intelligence apparatus, communications network, classification system and airliner fleet.” John McCone, former director of the CIA from 1962-1965, is now a director of ITT. by Paul Krehbiel Spectrum Staff Writer The Buffalo Committee for Chilean Democracy has called upon Buffalo area residents to join a letter-writing campaign to (]) re-open Congressional hearings on possible U.S. involvement in the September 1973 military coup in Chile, and (2) demand the release of Chilean political prisoners. According to the committee, the hearings, held by the House Sub-committee on Inter-American Affairs in October 1973, were hastily cancelled after the October 11 testimony of CIA Director William Colby and senior CIA official Frederick Dixon Davis. While their testimony was classified, it was obtained by reporter Rad Sculc, and excerpts were published in the Washington Post. In this testimony, Colby and Davis described the CIA activities in Chile during the period from Salvador Allende’s election as President in 1970 to the coup which overthrew him in 1973. These included: penetration (infiltration) of all major Chilean political parties, support for Anti-Allende demonstrations, submission of false economic reports to the White House to block Chile’s attempts to renegotiate their debt to the US., and financing of Chile’s opposition press. In addition, the committee contended that the CIA plotted with the International Telephone and Telegraph Corporation (ITT) to overthrow Allende in September to November 1970, and that Colby and Davis deleted this information from their testimony. ITT’s Chilean activities Sen. Gale McGee is tentatively considering opening hearings in the Senate, and a letter of encouragement to him, your Congressman and to the House Sub-committee on Inter-American Affairs might help, the committee added. The North American Congress on Latin America (NACLA) reprinted, in their April 1972 Report, documents released by columnist Jack Anderson concerning ITT and US. government involvement in Chile. Among those published was a document printed from a dictated phone call from San Juan on October 16, 1970 from Hal Hendrix, an ITT field operative, to E.J. Gerrity, ITT’s senior vice president in charge of public relations; “Unless there is a move by dissident Chilean military elements by this time mext mid-week, the consensus in Santiago is that Salvadore Allende will win the October 24 Congressional run-off easily and be inaugurated as President November 4.” - — � He continued: ‘The chance of a military coup is slim at least to this date.

Of thousands whose lives are in danger, the committee specifically named five. They are: Galo Gomez, rector of the University of Concepcion, scientist and member of the Socialist party; Enrique Kirberg, rector of the Technical University in Santiago, member of the Communist party; Bautista van Schowcn, medical doctor, member of the Movement of the Revolutionary Left (MIR); Edgardo Enriquez, former rector of the University of Conception, Minister of Education under Allende; and Alejandro Romero, medical surgeon, member of the MIR. Luis Corvalan, General Secretary of the Communist party, is still alive in prison, largely due to world protest, the committee says. Chile’s ruling military Junta is upset about bad world opinion, and increased world pressure is believed to be of help in saving lives.

Haldeman were who feel Watergate will "very seriously handicap” the President for the remainder of his term has not reached the 50 per cent mark, although the current 48 per cent is perilously close to it. Only 12 per cent nationwide now believe Watergate can pass and be forgotten. Even among Republicans, no more than 25 per cent think Watergate can be put behind the nation and Mr. Nixon can continue in office in a normal way. In this present gray area in which the nation has a President who obviously has lost the confidence of the people, but who has yet to bfc charged formally with an impeachable offense, the particulars of the Watergate tapes remain the gravest source of public doubt over President Nixon’s credibility and integrity. The proof of that emerged in yet another question; “If the Watergate Grand Jury were to decide the President was negligent in the care he took of the Watergate tapes, which were known to be future legal evidence, do you feel Congress should impeach the President or not?” deliberately erased because they would have proved President Nixon’s involvement in the cover-up.” As a result, a plurality (47-42 per cent) disagrees with the plea that “people should give President Nixon the benefit of the doubt in the Watergate tapes controversy.’’ Part of the reason for this lack of public charity toward the President can be found in the 54-21 per cent majority that is willing to believe “the two missing tapes were ordered destroyed because they would have proven President Nixon knew about the Watergate cover-up.” The bottom line on the public’s judgement about the President and the tapes can be found in its response to this question asked of a nationwide cross section of 1665 households in mid-February: “How would you rate President Nixon on his handling of the Should not Should Watergate tapes excellent, pretty good, only fair, or poor?” SHOULD CONGRESS IMPEACH IF PRESIDENT NEGLIGENT?

Graham Jr. The balance in dange withheld and destroyed evidence, tried to limit and define the investigation, and called the investigators "little children" who should clean their plates before requesting "a fishing license" for more evidence, he would have been behind bars long ago. Mr. Nixon has consistently tried to block the path of the fact-finders the Senate Watergate committee, a grand jury, two special prosecutors and the House inquiry surrendering only what he has been forced to by the courts and public opinion. Tapes under his "sole personal control" have been lost and marred with convenient gaps; Mr. Nixon has suppressed evidence, lied and acquiesced to hush money payments and obstructions of justice. These are the actions of a desperate man, one who would rather destroy evidence than risk letting that evidence be heard. His media offensive against the House inquiry is designed to bait them into confronting him over the narrow legal question of releasing evidence, instead of his crimes; and to pressure them into limiting their investigation to the Watergate break-in and cover-up, thus avoiding scrutiny of his clearly impeachable offenses regarding tax fraud, wiretapping, the plumbers, secretly bombing Cambodia, funds, influence illegally impounding peddling with ITT and the milk industry, and obstructing justice. If a President being investigated by Congress is allowed to define impeachment and limit the evidence and inquiry, future Presidents will truly be above the law. A single President is not the Presidency; a single President cannot rewrite the Constitution. At stake is our constitutional balance, and the potential abuses of an unchecked President which that balance and the constitutional safety valve of impeachment was designed to prevent.

The week before spring vacation (March 12) my dog (a small fluffy white spitz) was with a dark-haired female roommate near the Norton Union fountain. The dogcatcher noosed the dog and refused to return him. The dog turned up in the pound with a deep (and expensive) stab wound. A week prior to this the dogcatcher had threatened both the dog and myself. Several students and two security officers were present when the dog was arrested, but we have no names of witnesses.

Generally perceived by the public as guilty of serious crimes, Mr. Nixon long ago became a politically impotent, caretaker President. Men like Henry Kissinger, James Schlesinger, William Simon and George Shultz have been managing the country's foreign affairs, defense, energy problems and economy, with Mr. Nixon becoming dangerous only when he tries to take credit for their actions for political gain. he has become an Although obstructionist force to the men who are really running the government, the larger danger is Mr. Nixon's self-serving attempt to blur the distinction between himself as an individual President and the office of the Presidency. This is a common political trick; Mr. Nixon didn't even use his name in the 1972 campaign, his slogan was ''Re-elect the President." But only by identifying his welfare with that of the personal Government could Mr. Nixon justify political spying, illegal actions against dissenters, and peddling Government favors for the money which financed his illegal re-election. The House is considering impeaching Mr. Nixon for abusing the office of the Presidency, yet he is trying to identify his persona! survival with the continued "strength" of his office. The Constitution assigns the House the sole responsibility for determining impeachable offenses, yet Mr. Nixon has attempted to harass the House inquiry, determine himself what evidence is relevant and limit the scope of their investigation. It is the ultimate contradiction: a President being investigated for high crimes in office claiming that cooperating with the inquiry would tarnish that office. If a business executive being investigated Asst Feature . . — own Buffalo Chamber of Commerce distributes a pamphlet entitled Drug Abuse as a Business Problem which on page seven states: “With the spread of drug abuse in schools and among the armed forces in Vietnam, it would be unrealistic for business to assume it could recruit from these markets and not risk bringing drug abusers, narcotics addicts and pushers into companies, despite all the sophisticated screening tests available.” Vietnam veterans are portrayed as drug-crazed lunatics and the media is quick to point out their veteran status whenever a murder or arrest takes place. But part (a very small part) of the truth for these statements does exist. Vietnam era veterans have produced between 60 and 100 thousand drug addicts. There are problems of civilian readjustment, they have one of the highest divorce rates, suicide rates, a high chance to be involved in one driver one fatality auto accidents and a very high rate of alcoholism. All of this and they are blessed with a Veterans Administration that is underbudgeted, understaffed, over bureaucratic and so ineffective that it cannot even cosmetically cover up the problems of Vietnam-era vets as well as take care of them. Thirty percent of all male prisoners in state and federal penitentaries are Vietnam era veterans. Hundreds of thousands of us have no jobs. 560,000 Vietnam era veterans arc marked, for life by a military discharge system of codes, which defame one’s character and are unsubstantiated by fact or trial; a mark which stops employment and denies VA benefits. Education for us is denied by a G1 bill that even Congress admits is totally inadequate. We are blessed with these misfortunes after the politicians and the few people that got rich (or richer) off of us forced us to fight one of the most barbaric and criminal wars of mankind destroying hundreds and thousands of Indochinese. Now, President Nixon declares March 29, 1974 Vietnam Erq Veterans Day, the DAV tells us to fly the flag and the American Legion has open house for all Vietnam era veterans.

Murderers and rapists wait months for trial while the courts are ruining the lives of thousands of scared kids whose 'crime" was possessing a little grass. Time has proven the new drug law counter-productive; it must be repealed. But an even more immediate priority is to end the senseless persecution of users of marijuana, which is far less harmful than legal alcohol. We should follow the sane example set by Oregon, where possessing an ounce of grass is a parking violation-type misdemeanor with $100 fine and no record. While the recent Columbia University study may warrant more research into marijuana, decriminalizing pot is not the same as legalizing it; it doesn't mean that joints will be sold at the corner candy store. It simply means that now that 26 million Americans have smoked marijuana, we must not legally ruin the lives of casual users and young experimenters. Instead, we must concentrate on the mercenary pushers of hard drugs something New York's reactionary drug law has totally failed to do . Clogged courts, a decline in heroin arrests and an increase in petty marijuana busts these are some of the effects of New York's reactionary drug law. After only seven months, the law has deluged the courts with the persecution of thousands of small-time marijuana smokers and soft drug users dealers remain more while the big ever, because users can no invulnerable than longer name their contacts in exchange for pleading guilty to a lesser charge. Despite Nelson Rockefeller s insistence slapping that "throwing 'em in jail" mandatory life sentences on most users with would no discretion possible by the judge wipe out haitl drug traffic, the law has completely backfired: hard drug arrests are down since September. The incredibly insensitive law makes no distinction between the user, who may be a casual indulger or a hard-core addict who needs treatment, not and the pusher, the imprisonment commercial trafficker who sucks up the profits at the expense of human lives. The law provides the same 'mandatory life" penalty for selling a pound or more of a major narcotic as for merely possessing two ounces of it: jail, not rehabilitation, for the user or addict.

Gee whiz Harry, Scottie and the rest of that Eastern liberal bunch do to create excitement in our lives? Like the seventh cavalry coming to the — Ah yes, can’t you tell that spring has arrived in Buffalo? The sky is a blissful grey, the air a balmy ten degrees, and white flowers almost two inches in depth cover the landscape. Buffalo spring is like one of those old-time strippers; they give you a little thigh, expose a nipple or two, and just as it would seem as if all the coverings will be removed, they prance off the stage leaving you suspended and hungry for more. It would seem as if Mother Nature is adding to the boredom of life by conspiring to lengthen a season that should have been buried weeks ago. This winter has typified all of those incessant news items that keep hurling from the wire services they are of great importance, but who really wants to hear them anymore? This, being the winter of our discontent, has produced earth-shaking occurrences which have shaken the foundations of our political structure as well as possibly affecting the traditional American lifestyle. But who the hell wants to hear more about that bastard in the White House, or about the “fuel crisis?” Richard Nixon’s real defense is not his honesty or his battery of lawyers, but his ability to confuse and drag out an issue until he bores the American people to death. After all of the supposed evidence, it is quite evident that either Nixon is a fool, or one of the biggest liars ever to threaten American society. Now that we know that he is either one or the other, and possibly both, the constant footd raggings and procrastination has produced a sense of apathy that is impervious to any new earthquakes. Now that Nixon is attempting to bore us with “Watergate,” our other national distractions seem to fall into the same role. After dire warnings, fearful predictions, and lots of inane articles written on the energy crisis, the shortages seem to have miraculously disappeared. This sudden ending to a national crisis, coupled with a fantastic rise in price, has contributed to the general feeling that it was a faked crisis designed to raise prices. What else can you say when the obvious stares you right in the face? Golly, now that the two biggest news items have lost their initial impact, it behooves our national commentators to find something else with which to fill America’s eyes and ears. No American deaths in Nam? All quiet in the Middle East with the usual exceptions? The usual disclosures concerning the naughties of the Nixon — How about 75-25? To the Editor: The New York State legislature has seen fit to cut $6 million in construction funds for the Amherst Campus. For this we can thank our area legislators. It is for their “favor” that we have compromised the University’s admission standards by retaining the 50-50 freshmen admissions policy. 1 am now looking forward to a decision by Dr. Ketter to implement a new 75-25 system whereby three-quarters of the freshmen class is from Western New York, further leading the University down the road to total regionalism and academic obscurity. Mitch Regenbogen Racist scapegoating To the Editor. For all the talk about “racism in reverie” and “reverie discrimination” in recent issues of The Spectrum, it is hard to remember when the paper last editorialized against racism as it really is. Where have been the articles on “Racism in High Gear at SUNYAB?” Instead, we hear the racist lies that non-whites (and to some extent women) are responsible for the dwindling financial-aid funds and educational opportunities available to “middle-clan,” i.e., white, students. Is The Spectrum trying to make us think that EOF students, for example, are the benefactors of lavish give-away programs? Apparently. But it is certainly not the case. The Spectrum has never pointed out the real need for more law school and med school slots for all who want to study at them, or for more to ease the unemployment jobs for everyone problems of even PhDs. Nor does Spectrum attack the SUNY administration or state or federal governments for the cutbacks in education health and welfare. Instead, they launch an offensive against students who have even slimmer chances of “making it” under present conditions than do students as a whole. And everybody’s prospects are pretty dim. Racist scapegoating merely sets students at a good strategy for those one another’s throats but not for those of us (namely, cutting back us ALL) who have got to fight for a chance. In these times of economic crises, the ruling class in this country has only intensified its attacks on non-whites and women. If we fall for their reactionary line, as has The Spectrum, things can only get worse. The classrooms here at TJB have got to become battlegrounds in the class war, where racist and male chauvinist ideology is smashed.

Progressive Labor Party rescue of the proverbial wagon train, streaking has been promoted as the savior to lousy weather, uniform incessant news, and gloomy naked people prognostications. Just think (young, of course) running around exposing their genitals the ruin of society is at hand! Without the streakers the psychologists, sociologists, media messagers, and other equally boring people would have nothing to do. With streaking, these intellectuals can discuss the real meaning of streaking ranging from frustrations, sexual repression/freedom, castrated mother complexes, permissive/strict parents, intellectual alienation and anything else that could add to their Vitae. With all these people pontificating about the intellectual meaning of streaking, and the mass media covering it as if Christ himself were running, they completely ignore why streaking is done in the first place: it’s fun! It is a real trip to run pass unsuspecting people without your clothes; it helps you meet people, and most of all, it relieves your boredom. Boredom with the weather, boredom with school, boredome with news, that never reaches the inevitable conclusion. It’? something that was spontaneous and natural, but with all the recent media coverage, streaking has become as interesting as two-week-old pizza. Now that streaking has been exploited until we are quite impervious to naked runners, what can we dream up next in order to fill the insatiable maw of the newsmakers? We could have Richard Nixon streak hopefully out of the White House so we can see what he is really made of. We could sit around and watch the snow fall and wonder if there is really a season such as Spring. What this country really needs is an old-fashioned Spring. Ya know, with birds, flowers, pretty smells, tra la la, etc. People smile when Spring arrives, some even acknowledge your presence. Clothing is removed in layers until that heavy person who sat next to you in class is revealed to have a severe case of malnutrition. Spring will cure boredom. Spring will relight the sweet vindictiveness first felt when the Watergate scandals first were uncovered. Let us pray for when it arrives, everything will be Spring including this bright, interesting and lively column. — - — — — - — Streaking politics To the Editor. In regards to the letters to the editor concerning streaking as being a manifestation of our capitalistic system before you go claiming the human body as a capitalistic tool, let me say this. Let us examine the academic atmosphere of today. Daily we are bombarded with political truths from groups who seek to manipulate us in their behalf. We learn noble “knowledge” from our esteemed professors and play the role of complacent competitors for the top of various curves. With one eye watching the vanishing job market and the other paging through absurd books, we are caught in a vise. However we all accept this role and some even enjoy it. Caught within these norms, apathy can only become the product. However, today we see the streaker movement spreading across campuses. For — students to escape the average norm, is to rise above it. To accept absurdity and free ones self of inhibitions are lessons few people leam. It’s true that streaking has no social value, but the personal lesson and the fun outweigh the puritanical uproar it unleashed. The point is that there is only one thing in this world that is ours, our bodies. For too long we have accepted our bodies as a means to sustain the fashion industry. Along with the hiding of our bodies, have come enough complexes to keep any psychology department busy for years. So the next time you see a streaker race by, ask yourself, could that be me? If it couldn’t, then don’t look down on him or her, but be happy that someone is enjoying her himself, and that your dull day was or interrupted by a flash of flesh.

But the real shame is that you refuse to acknowledge any Americanism on the part of U.B. students.

Not all of us here are chumps or dupes of these lowlife who so arrogantly spew forth their communist dogma in the halls of Norton. Not all of Not all of us, propaganda In closing, we appeal to the God-fearing patriotic Americans on campus to demand the eradication of the communist crud and wild-eyed one-worlders who proliferate our campus. The Committee to Restore Americanism to Our Campus Friday, 29 March 1974 . The Spectrum . Page thirteen �( Taxation without representation To the Editor: I hate to tay “I told you »o,” but I told you *o. Last July, when the expendituret of Community Action Corps were challenged as a violation of mandatory student fee guidelines, I wrote to The Spectrum “It is indeed a precarious position to be in, knowing that the administration can override the desires of the student body... by arbitrarily involing its power to interpret and reinterpret an ambiguous set of regulations on a moment’s notice.” As the current crisis in health care indicates, the autonomy of any student organization is subject to the whims of an administration that has the ultimate power of the purse. Students on this and other state campuses are permitted to pay a student activities fee, form organizations, and decide how they want their money spent. Yet, the ultimate decision regarding the disbursement of the funds lies with the University administration or its designee. We are dependent upon the good will of University administrators, not a particularly stable situation. One SUNY campus has resolved this difficulty by designating a Student Association employee to interpret the guidelines; this is an alternative we should investigate here. What we are experiencing is a denial of our fundamental democratic right to spend student money according to student needs as we perceive them. ‘Taxation without representation” may sound corny, but isn’t our situation a form of tyranny? Guest Opinion Mark S. Carlin Director by Irving Spitzberg Dean of the Colleges Community Action Corps Trying to do a job To the Editor: The pitiful, misinformed piece of tripe (entitled “Bare Rockefeller-Kurtz Brainwash Plot at SUNY-Bflo” and dated March 7, 1974), which was recently distributed on the SUNYAB campus by the National Caucus of Labor Committees, hardly deserves serious attention. Its gross inaccuracies, empty generalizations, and cliche’-ridden sensationalism condemn themselves. However, I feel obliged to set the record straight, inasmuch as I am the so-called “Doctor” with the allegedly sinister Millard Fillmore College course in Black Literature to which the libelous NCLC “Press Release” refers. In addition to exploring the characteristic* and the function of the Black aesthetic through the free analysis of such text* as Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave; Abraham Chapman’s anthology of Black literature, New Black Voices; George Jackson's Soledad Brother; Ralph Ellison’s Invisible Man; Cheik Hamidou Kane’s Ambiguous Adventure; and Chinua Achebe’s Things Fall Apart, the English 387-388 two-semester sequence (“Studies in Black Literature”) ha* a* one of it* central aims encouraging the student to think for himself and to avoid precisely the kind of crippling, propagandists hogwash exhibited by the NCLC article. That perhaps is one reason why, in the six semesters since its inception in the Fall of 1971, “Studies in Black Literature” has attracted: 1) enrollments as high as 55 in some semesters (42 students, for example, completed the English 387 day section last semester); 2) student* from virtually every ethnic group on this campus every semester; 3) some of the best students at this University; and 4) several graduate student* who have energetically sought official permission to audit the course because of its instructive, free and open discussions of significant literary and aesthetic issues. That Mr. Burnett was extremely nervous and tense (on March 12?) may indeed have been due to the frank and open nature of the class discussion; and if it is necessary, I wish publicly to apologize. However, that he perspired may well have been due to conditions beyond my control. But not to be totally facetious, what the hell, in this context, is “a striking personality change?” I am, you see, neither a devious CIA agent nor a sophisticated Nazi expert on “menticide,” but a basically simple man who is trying to do an honest job, which does not stop with my bi-weekly paycheck, and surely doe* not include manipulating my fellowman as part of NCLC’s suggested “vicious and elaborate brainwashing setup.” And the “Doctor” is, incidentally, neither a medical cover nor a self-imposed, academic trapping to hide my incompetence. It is, as a matter of recorded fact, a legitimate and hard-earned PhD from the University of Illinois. At the very least, NCLC owes me a prompt, public apology. Desmond Hamlet Page fourteen The Spectrum Friday, 29 March 1974 . . Soon after I arrived at SUNYAB 1 was approached by various faculty and students, who inquired on a regular basis thereafter: “How are you bearing up?” “Is everything alright?” These inquiries were always offered in the most sympathetic tone of voice. I got the feeling that the questioners assumed that I had some terminal disease or, at the very least, that my family at the Colleges did. I now respond to such inquiries by clearly stating my belief that a vigorous and healthy group of institutions operate out of Crosby Hall. The greatest difficulty the Colleges (as a group) have is that they always seem to the public to be a group of desperate people in dying institutions, striking out at all of those around them and many of those among them. Regrettably, Stanley Dayan has contributed once again to this impression, [see Andante, The Spectrum, March 27] I personally am quite sad that Stanley does not see even a “shred” of hope in the Colleges, because it is clear that he could contribute to a new set of chartered Colleges. But I am happy that he perceives, as I do, that most people in the Colleges do see hope. Indeed, it is quite clear that the Colleges are preparing in a responsible manner for the upcoming chartering process. And, it seems to me that most of the existing Colleges will be chartered and will emerge as stronger institutions just because they will have greater faculty involvement. The most important area of disagreement between Stanley and me is in our conception of how alternative institutions most effectively operate. And it is clear that this is a difference between Stanley’s College E and other Colleges in the present Assembly. One approach to creating an alternative institution is what one can all a smorgasbord approach: try anything anytime without considering the likelihood of success in actually solving a set of problems and changing larger institutions. This approach may be appropriate in situations where there are relatively unlimited resources and no constraints of time. The second approach to the development of alternative institutions is to identify a particular problem area and then attempt to marshal creativity and resources to develop an alternative institutional environment for dealing with the problems. This latter approach has characterized the most successful Colleges in the Collegiate System: for example, (and only as examples) look at the success of College Z in involving large numbers of undergraduates and policemen in the study of issues in the criminal justice system; or witness the quality of the program offered by Women Studies College to undergraduates, the community of women in Buffalo, and the woman’s movement nationally. Many of the other Colleges have also developed new institutional arrangements in their own organizations ot support programs which are having meaningful impact on a number of social systems. This approach requires competent people investing time, energy and judgment in a creative venture; it will not succeed catch-as-catch-can. The important contribution which the new Prospectus and its chartering requirements can make is to increase the likelihood of impact by these energetic alternative institutions on the University and the larger community. One of the critical problems facing the old Collegiate System has been the lack of meaningful involvement in the Colleges. This situation has meant that the faculty has viewed all disputes about College activities and all complaints about underfunding of the Colleges as spectators. Members of the faculty have not seen their interests at stake in the Colleges. Hopefully, under the new Prospectus, with its requirement for significant faculty participation in each College, this situation will change. And by involving the faculty in the life of the various alternative institutions found in the Collegiate System, the Colleges may be in a position to change effectively the larger University community. The importance of changing the University environment is that the best contribution which these Colleges can make to the larger community is opening up the intellectual and professional resources of the University to those who have not had access to them before. In creating these new modes of access, the participating students and faculty will be enjoying a quality educational experience unequaled in this University. And this issue of access is relevant to one point in Stanley Dayan’s opinion, which deserves brief comment; his report of the Shanti case. I do not want to go into detail here, because to do so would be unfair to Shanti. My only comment is that in thise case we see a situation where a College, after clearly being told not to charge fees in a previous year, established a financial barrier to participation in a course by the students in this University. The levying ofa regressive tax for participation in a course even when the tax is called, after the fact, a donation is not the most effective way to open up access to the alternative institutions in this University. Nor is a one-sided report of the facts of a case the best way to testify to one’s stated belief in the honorableness of the new director. Stanley, I hope that you will decide not to play the role of the “cornered animal,” to use your own words. My guess is that you would find yourself in a lonely position, because most of the participants in the Colleges now clearly see promise in the future of the Colleges. — - �THE LAST DETAIL by Jay Boyar Spectrum Arts Editor Banditry is exciting. A film like The Hot Rock or most of the episodes in It Takes A Thief thrived partly on the vicarious excitement people get from watching (and identifying with) looters. For the common crook, the allure of theft is not so much the excitement, but rather the result: money. Most burglars, I suspect, would rather have their booty handed to them outright than have to risk a possible scrape with the law in actually committing a crime. Not so the "sickie," the cleptomaniac. He steals things he doesn't need; for him, the ride is the thing. He thrives on the tension, the th’rill of the theft. In The Last Detail, the premise is that if a boy leads a miserable, uneventful life, then he may see this needless stealing as his only way of getting some "kicks" and asserting his existence. Hmmm , . . well, okay. Quaid as Meadows the unfortunate cleptomaniac is a Navy man who is caught stealing $40 he didn't need from a polio-fund drive box and is sentenced t6 a decade or so of imprisonment. Jack Nicholson and Otis Young play Buddusky and Mulhall, the sailors assigned to take Meadows across the country to prison. Randy whirlwind, microcosmic odyssey before seeing to that last detail: imprisonment. Directed by Hal Ashby (The Landlord, Harold and Maude ) from Robert Towne's script, the film, based on Darryl Ponicsan's novel, works for several reasons. Its tensions are carefully developed. Should they let him go? Should they risk the possibility of "taunting" a condemned man with life's pleasures? Will he try to escape? Can they trust him? Are they helping him? These questions float around the plot throughout the film. The story-line is manipulative without being obvious or obnox ious. Another reason the film works is the acting. Nicholson especially captures the uneducated, cussing, joking, "machismo" character he plays with charm and sympathy. Buddusky and Mulhall come off realistically as men, and still more than realistically as Meadows' fairy godfathers. They are weird, instinctive good guys. Quaid's portrayal of cleptomaniac Meadows is as intense as it is consistent. Basically, all he needed to do was look the which he does but Quaid does part — — even more; I felt a strong sense of a complex, churning inner life to the character. From the above plot synopsis, one might conclude that there is no way for the director to have the sailors smoothly and naturally introduce their prisoner to all the various "joys" mentioned. And indeed, except the way it is there is no way done: in episodic, loosely-related scenes (like those one imagines of Huck Finn on the river) relying heavily on Buddusky's strength and external manifestation of character. The "joys" are introduced to the with a spontaneity that prisoner simultaneously echoes life and is bigger than life. As one watches the scenes, they relying, as they do, on a seem natural bare minimum of coincidence. Only afterward does one realize that Meadows has experienced so much of life's seeds in ... — so short a time. — Setting sail A moral problem: the sailors are pretty nice guys, and Meadows clearly has been unfairly punished. Should they let him go? While they chew on that, they decide to show him the time of his life en route to to give him an idea of some jail alternative "kicks" to stealing, and to give him a concept of himself so that he can fight back against the miserable prison conditions he must face. So they show the 18-year-old what it's like to get drunk, mad, and laid. Friendship, cursing, and (by accident) religion are other "joys" to which they introduce the lad. Oh yeah, they also go on a hot dog picnic in the snowy park but forget the "fucking buns." In short, Buddusky and Mulhall take Meadows on a — > Drunken sailor Some critics might suggest that the film is a crude story which appeals only to a Buddusky or to a latent version of that character. While it is true that the movie can' have that attraction to this sort of viewer on one level, it is an insensitive oversimplification to say that this is its only appeal. It's not so much that the sailors are crude and wild, it's that they have life, zest. It's not their vulgarities that charm, but their good intentions. It's not the specific way of life they show Meadows, but rather that they show him that he can have a way of life. It's not the crass realism so much as the mythic, almost but not quite epic quality that is this film's appeal to the viewer. More than anything else, the film is a celebration of energy with reservations. When a life is wrong-headed or even — — — — shattered — the only thing left to do is to ride along as long as possible on pure vigor.

When Johnny Carson once asked Reiner why Brooks never would appear on his show, Reiner replied: "Mel says that he has nothing to say." Pure nonsense. Brooks can take the subject of cardboard and turn it into a brilliant comedy sketch. About thirteen years ago, Reiner was fooling around with a tape recorder. Just to see how it worked, he talked into the recorder, asking Brooks; "Is it two true that you're really old?" thousand years "OOOOOOOOB oy 111" was the reply and an entire interview improvisational arose. Two albums have since been released because of the demand for Brooks' 2000-year-old man. Mel Brooks (the genius) has done films as well, and his latest, Blazing Saddles, is purely a work of art. Absurdity in comedy, which outside of Woody Allen is rarely seen on the screen today is quite evident from the start of the movie. From the very when the Warner beginning, Brother logo burns from the middle outwards (a la Bonanza), to the very end when our hero rides his horse into the sunset, only to be picked up in the middle of nowhere by a chauffeur-driven limousine, the wacky wit of Mr. Brooks is in top — — form. Little, the hero, comes from the weird world of Temperatures Rising and fits into Blazing Saddles like it was a home away from home. Possibly the best performance in the film is given by Brooks himself. He is the governor of the state in which Rockville Ridge is located. How he got to be governor is beyond everyone. He's on the verge of insane absurdity (Mel Brooks' entire life seems to hinge on the brink of insanity), rolling the eyes in all directions, playing with strange toys at meetings and important employing a Miss Stein as his secretary and "confidante." Miss Stein is a little low on the brains, but she lacks little else. Brooks walks around Groucho-style, with a cigar in mouth and the letters GOV printed on the back of his oversized coattails. In Blazing Saddles, the plot is inconsequential. Just sit back and enjoy it. The insanity and absurdity of the whole thing is what makes the movie so refreshing. It is now showing at the Boulevard Cinema 2, Como 6 and Evans theaters. Hear O Israel For gems from the Jewish Bible First things first: say The Tall Blond Man with One Black Shoe five times fast. Quite a mouthful, indeed! What's even more incredible is that with such a long title, the movie itself runs only about 88 minutes. But I'm sure a man does not make people decide whether or not they will see a particular film. How about some other intangibles? Well, what if I told you that this film was directed by Yves Robert, and written by Robert and Francis Veber? How about if I slipped you the "big” names on the card, such as Pierre Richard and Bernard Blier? But then again, I guess most people would not be able to tell a Rochefort from a Perrault from a Legume. All right, so it is a French film, but don’t let that slant your judgment. The plot is really rather Anglo-Saxon. It deals with an internal struggle within the French intelligence forces, during which it is decided that the rats must be brought out from hiding. This is done by "leaking" information about a decoy agent (picked randomly out of a throng of thousands at Orly Airport), pinning a status of great importance on him, and then letting the rebellious wolves go to work on their unsuspecting prey. Sounds a bit like Hitchcock's North by Northwest, doesn't it?

From a MOVIE critic's point of view, the film is practically worthless. But from a COMEDY critic's viewpoint, it's a work of art. Brooks has made a movie comprised not of great actors and moving drama, but rather good character comedians who are insanely funny when given the material.

Despite the film's brevity, much more could have been done with it. True, the presentation by itself is sufficient for the GP audience, but the story-book attitude which Robert and Veber have toward the screenplay allows them to take the easy way out of each situation. In the role of writer, Robert did not come through as well as he could have. For instance, the guys in black use their last piece of bait in an attempt to find out what made Francois so "important" by sending a beautiful fellow undercover worker, Christine, to seduce him.

Page seventeen . �Little Italy New film dealing with life of the big time gangster mob amused and cautious, and pours the drinks. Michael is a small-time smuggler, first seen receiving what he thinks are boxes of German-made camera lenses and ending up instead with "a whole shipment of Jap adapters," proving ortce again that crime does not pay. Johnny Boy is an overgrown adolescent who still delights in blowing up mailboxes; and Charlie, thoughtful and conscientious, is given to making such profoundly religious remarks as "you can't fuck around with the infinite." The almost non-existent plot concerns a couple of thousand dollars which Johnny owes Michael, and which he never quite gets around to paying. The money was apparently lent on Charlie's recommendation, and Mike keeps warning Charlie to warn Johnny that his patience will not last forever. Johnny runs out on jobs and friends, the cash never materializes, and Johnny is demar erialized forever. This meager story-line is justified in its function as a skeleton on which the actors most notably Robert DeNiro as Johnny and Harvey Keitel as Charlie can individually flesh out the characterizations which director Martin Scorcese establishes. obviously Scorcese is influenced by a documentary style which he doesn't quite know by Randi Schnur Assistant Arts Editor ' Mean Streets might just as well have been called "Coming of Age in Little Italy," with a lot less emphasis on the "mean." The streets in question seem a good deal less perilous than they did when, say, Don Corleone walked them a few years ago; now, lit up for a religious festival, they are travelled by tourists, women out to do their marketing, and a goodly number of bunks who spend their evenings barhopping and swindling even-younger would-be hoods. Describing the non-adventures of four of those building Mafiosi over a period of several days, the film is a cross between The Godfather and The Bowery Boys, with a dash of West Side Story thrown in for extra flavor. The four protagonists are introduced in a series of short vignettes, "capsule characterizations" in which each makes some comment or performs one action epitomizing his character, with each one's name printed on the screen at the end of his scene. Tony, owner of the bar in which the comrades spend about three-quarters of their time, seems to have been straightened out by the financial — — responsibilities which eventually more or less destroy the other three; he now only watches. how to handle. He ends by tying up the story of Johnny's peid-in-blood debt, which perhaps the film's least importan element, but leaves most of thv other characters and situations unresolved, developed just enough to get us interested but left dangling by themselves. Thi' problem of concluding or statement (and running out film) long before others are read\ to be finished off has, of course, surfaced in quite a few film; before and has been dealt with much more adequately. For instance, directors from Costa-Gavras in Z to Friedkin The French Connection, and evei Lucas in American Graffiti, summed up their character eventual fates simply by listii the results of the circumstance! with which they were most concerned. The device may be crude, but it does satisfy a need that this type of film creates, one with which good characterizations should leave their audiences the need to know what happens next. There is a big difference between leaving details to our imaginations and ignoring altogether what were once important characters. Despite the film’s other flaws, the fine performances of the two mentioned above, actors particularly that of Robert DeNiro (last seen in Bang the Drum Slowly and an Academy Award nominee, dubious honor — though it may be, for his role in Mean Streets) make it worth seeing. His Johnny Boy was just as as his acquaintances crazy considered him, yet every bit as sane as his best friend Charlie claimed: an enigma whose personality could have filled up a whole other movie. DeNiro, at least, will probably be filling up a lot more of them in the near future. The film has several other high points; a fight in a pool hall, one of the many which starts as soon as anyone gets restless, is subtly and very cleverly choreographed to the rhythm of "Please Mr. Postman" on the jukebox. Drinking too much at a party in Tony's bar, Charlie nauseously stares ahead of him as the floor seems to dance around him and finally tilts up to meet his head. Low-keyed sometimes to the point of slowness. Mean Streets is nevertheless an interesting and very worthwhile look at the aimlessness and, once in awhile, violence of Lower Manhattan life. * Lecture on films Movie fans, nostalgia buffs and cultural history addicts shouldn't miss movie historian Andrew Bergman on Tuesday, April 2.

II Our Weekly Reader Enormous Changes at the Last Minute by Grace Raley (Farrar, Straus & Girous, $6.95) "Now me," said Jerry. "What I am really: I am the Sunday-breakfast chef. I will make thirty pancakes, six per person, eggs, bacon, fresh ham and a gallon of juice. I will wake up those lazy kids of yours, and I will feed them until I see some brains wiggling in their dumb heads. I hate a dumb kid. I always think it's me." Jerry Cook is a business salesman-type hustler in Grace Raley’s story, "Come On, Ye Sons of Art." The story is written in a kind of poetic slang, a beautiful spiel in which Jerry tells about his shrewd business family and his stumbie-bummy self. He feels he's a failure because he can't hustle as well as his sisters and brothers, but Kitty, the woman he sleeps with on Saturday night and whose family he cooks breakfast for on Sunday mornings, Kitty loves him because he fails. His language is small-time New York business jumpy: "Meanwhile my brother Skippy mentions $40,000. Come on! What is $40,000. Ask the bank. Go to the bank. They tear up $40,000. They jump up and down on it. They spit on it. They laugh. You want to sink in one stick of a foundation, the cost is maybe $12,000. It disappears into the ground. Into the ground and farewell." His talk defines him. The language tells so much. Kitty has three kids ("thirty pancakes, six per person"). Sunday-breakfast is a weekly ritual: it has earned a hyphen. Jerry is afraid of being stupid "I hate a dumb kid" but intelligence is associated with affluence, with being able to provide ("I will feed them until I see some brains wiggling in their dumb heads.") The metaphor is marvellous too: brains are worms that wriggle out when the head is filled; brain food. Grace Paley's prose is like that: telegraphic, — — ATUST-THE SCHBHUY! Now in paperback—the complete screenplay of the most discussed and probably the most shocking movie ever made. Pauline Kael proclaims it “the film that has made the strongest impression on me in almost 20 years of reviewing." Norman Mailer calls it “a failure worth a hundred films like The Godfather." See for yourself. With photographs from the film and critical essays by Pauline Kael and Norman Mailer BERNARDO BERTOLUCCIS Worth the wait. If novellists allowed characters to speak in the wildly poetic ways people really do speak, more novelists would be writing like Grace Raley. Writers search for the right word and what emerges is a controlled, formal look at an artificial creative world. Raley's technique is to locate the exact wrong word; the glorious, unexpected wrong word that in a phrase, an exclamation wrenches the character into the intense emotional complexity of "the open destiny of life." A wife, talking about her ex-husband who she's met outside the library: "He had had a habit throughout the 27 years of making a narrow remark which, like a plumber's snake, could work its way through the ears, down the throat, halfway to my heart. He would then disappear, leaving me choking with equipment. What I mean is, I sat down on the library steps and he went away." That over-extended metaphor moves through comedy and pathos to something purely affecting. The flat statement ("I sat down on the library steps and he went away") yokes the imaginative to the real, the metaphor takes off and veers wildly, crashing bravely back into the humdrum. The stories in this collection capture all sorts of New York voices: Italian, black, Puerto Rican, Irish. Jewish. These are street stories. Not intellectual head stuff; but heady stuff, buoyant. Raley's technique is collage. But unlike other modern collagists (most notably Donald Barthelme), Raley's is a collage of people and emotions and inventive speech, not a formal juxtaposition of differently crafted and shaped sentences. For this reason, Raley can pack more emotional information into four pages of story than most other writers can in twenty. For this reason, too, Raley's stories can career and careen so wildly through vernacular, poetic, peculiar and always surprising. emotions that two of the shortest stories (three Fifteen years ago Grace Paley's first book of pages each) lose their narrative bearings and crash short stories. The Little Disturbances of Man, into confusion.

This is to say he writes future mainstream, or social parody novels that have no science except a not-too-well calculated probability that Earth will exist in the year 2000. Commune 2000 has an added advantage. At the very top of this never-published-in-hardcover creation are the words "A Frederik Pohl Selection," which is further explained to mean that each book with this crest "reflects, the taste, integrity and discrimination that have made his own works so highly respected by critics and enjoyed by millions of readers." Frederik Pohl, three-time Hugo award winner and most recently nominated for his novella The Gold at the Starbow’s End, is one of the most austere-looking gentlement I have ever seen, and it is for that reason that his "selection" of this book comes as a shock. As science fiction, the book is as atrocious as the film version of 1985, in which the science advancements ranked far below that of today (and we have ten years to go). The plot of the book can be summed up by saying that the Earth is a whole; one united mass by the virtue of Universal Guaranteed Income, and that communes are developing as a reaction to this cosmic order. The plot thickens a little when the politicians come in, for they are fixing the National Data Bank, which correlates one's &ility quotient with one's job. Naturally, the politicians have no ability except for deception, so they rig the computer to keep their jobs.

Reynolds is a world traveler, forever moving in an What the story realty is about, however, is sexual attempt to see as much as he can in as little time as freedom. Proportionally, many more words are dedicated possible, and his writing reflects this to this subject than to the comparison between ancient guantity-versus-quality attitude. He has sent stories to communes and those of 2000. Reynolds does not analyze Analog arid The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction this freedom or its effects, he merely describes it for such from places such as Morocco, Algeria, Syria, Saudi Arabia unknown purposes as personal satisfaction or increased and Mexico (where he now resides, supposedly) and this sales. It is remarkable that in the year 1974 such books as merely confirms the fact that a lot of publishers are also this and those of Richard Geis can be published under the stamp collectors. name of science fiction. In the introduction to his short story 'The Pacifist" For a long time science fiction has handled sex in the (F&SF, Jan. 1964), Reynolds is said to be a writer who most remarkable ways, and those ways have done justice "carries certain premises to their logical confusion." While to the genre, mixing speculation with science and human this was undoubtedly meant to be cute, it is nonetheless emotion. The first book generally proclaimed to treat sex true that the shaky premise of Commune 2000A.D. must science-fictionally is Philip Jose Farmer's The Lovers, logically end in confusion, Thousands of disenchanted which featured love with an alien possessing certain people fled the cities' to live in communes, and it is well insect-like qualities.

There is no way profit could be a motive, Dr. Kctter added. by Larry Kraftowitz and Gary Cohn © 1974, The Spectrum services at this University Birth Control Clinic, pregnancy Sub-Board’s including laboratory may be center and clinical counseling dismantled, pending a legal opinion from Albany and a Student-funded health - — policy decision by University President Robert Ketter. The controversy arose when expenditures by Sub-Board’s Birth Control Clinic were vetoed last month by Anthony Lorcnzetti, associate vice-president for Student Affairs, because “the use of mandatory student fees for medical supplies and services is outside the intent of the [fee] guidelines.” Dr. Lorcnzetti’s action unleashed a flood of protests from students and Sub-Board officials; raised the issue of whether student fees can be spent for health care; and prompted President Ketter to seek clarification of the fee guidelines from State University of New York (SUNY) legal counsel Walter Relihan late last month. Dr. Ketter received Dr. Relihan’s legal opinion last week, but said it consists of complicated legalistic language “which could be interpreted in several different ways.” He is therefore seeking a legal interpretation of Mr. Relihan’s legal opinion from State University of Buffalo legal counsel John Leach. Dr. Ketter was still awaiting the interpretation as The Spectrum went to press. \ Does health fit guidelines? According to official State University guidelines, mandatory fees may be used to finance programs of, cultural and educational enrichment, recreational and social activities, and tutorial activities. These programs must be organized “for the benefit of the campus community.” “There’s always been a question as to whether student mandatory fees should be used for certain individual students,” maintained Russ Gugino, SUNY vice-president for Student Affairs. He questioned; “Are all students being forced to put up money for a few?” This is definitely not the case, according to Mr. Campagna. “Last year in a University-wide study, students indicated that health care was their number one priority,” he said. The rising cost of health care, plus the fact that most students arc presently not in a position to afford the traditional fees for health care, would make Sub-Board’s operation a great asset to students, Mr. Campagna said. The Sub-Board Health Care program contains a Future spending frozen While awaiting clarification of the legal opinion provided by SUNY Central in Albany, Dr. Ketter has allowed Sub-Board to honor past financial commitments, but has refused to permit the Health Care Division to use student fees for future expenses. Pressed for some type of interpretation of Dr. Relihan’s legal opinion, Dr. Ketter insisted that he could not say for sure. “It was written in very legalistic terms if this were so-and-so, then you can do this, but you and we are awaiting a legal might want to do that interpretation from our counsel. Legally, it’s still not clear,” Dr. Ketter said. He added that his “own personal feelings” on health care “should be evident from trying to bail out the Birth Control Clinic,” but that his personal feelings could not affect “whether it’s legally possible” to use student fees for health care services. — - Price increases forced Meanwhile, Sub-Board has been given the go-ahead to set up an income-generating “revolving account” (which does not receive subsidies from mandatory student fees) to continue its operations. Health Care Division director A1 Campagna revealed that while the revolving account has allowed Sub-Board to continue its widely-used services, sole reliance on the revolving account has already forced a price increase in student health services. Some Sub-Board officials have speculated that the Administration is actually using the mandatory student fee issue as a guise under which the Faculty-Student Association (FSA) could take over the potentially profitable health care operations. FSA is the University’s not-for-profit corporation, controlled by the Administration, which operates Food Service, vending and the Bookstore. As evidence, the Sub-Board spokesman explained that Dr. Ketter’s February 20th letter to Dr. Relihan asks whether the FSA can “engage in the selling of birth control devices, pharmaceutics, etc.” as well as inquiries about the legality of using mandatory student fees for student health care. ‘No profit motive’ Vehemently denying that FSA was trying to take over the health care operation for profit reasons. Dr. Ketter declared; “We were exploring any and all ways to bail out the Birth Control Clinic. I think Sub-Board 1 is suffering from paranoia. The only motive was to bail out students. I’m not interested in who has control, 1 just want to see the [health] services provided,” Dr. Ketter added. “FSA cannot make a profit,” Dr. Ketter insisted. Because FSA is a not-for-profit corporation, “there is no — Dr. Robert Ketter Page two The Spectrum Wednesday, 27 March 1974 . • » *- . t — T* * V* Al Campagna “strong educational component,” he insisted. Students pursuing pre-medical studies have been able to gain invaluable experience from the program, and a credit-bearing elective will be offered next semester in conjunction with Health Care, Mr. Campagna explained. Additionally, Sub-Board is planning to open a pharmacy “where med tech students, pharmacists and professional people can all work together.” “That certainly will be of educational value and will be quite a feather in UB’s hat,” Mr. Campagna said. Interpretation needed There has never been any doubt as to whether pregnancy counseling is educational, agreed Dr. Lorenzetti. However, he felt the mandatory fee guidelines were “pretty general and require a great deal of interpretation.” The legality of dispensing birth control devices was questionable, he said, because they were used by select individuals and not “for the benefit of the campus community,” and because they were a “service” and not an educational experience. All health care is “of educational significance,” Student Association of State University (SASU) chairman Brian Petraitis insisted. “If a student is not healthy, either psychologically or physically, then his or her —continued on page 6— �Fac— —s—? —n 1 • —- u y. * , } .:*** ■> > .. r - '• ; -/ - Plus/minus grading option vetoed by Ketter by Richard Korman Contributing Editor President Robert Ketter yesterday vetoed the plus/minus grading option passed by the Faculty-Senate before vacation. In a letter to Fac-Sen chairman Gil Moore, Dr. Ketter indicated that he had asked many University departments how the addition of the plus/minus option for instructors would affect their students, and “almost unanimously, there was negative feedback,” explained Tom Craine, assistant to the President. “They said it could adversely affect students applying to graduate and professional schools,” he indicated. “Because most of the reaction has come back negative, Dr. Ketter is telling the Faculty-Senate that he will have to say ‘no’ at this point,” Dr. Craine continued. “He decided he cannot accept the Senate resolution without supporting documentation. If the Senate wants to bring back the proposal at a later date with supporting evidence, they are free to do so.” Dr. Craine added that “it is hard for a faculty member to make the insignificant differentiation between an A- and a B+,” indicating that this was one of the reasons Dr. Ketter took the unusual action of vetoing a Faculty-Senate resolution. Frank Jackalone Mark Humm The plus/minus option, proposed by professor of ‘Negative feedback’ Biology Harold Segal, came as an amendment to a motion Craine that Dr. mentioned there were also “logistical problems” with plus/minus, such as the revamping that which called for the ABCDF system to be retained. would be necessary in Admissions and Records and the “Despite its shortcomings, ABCDF should be retained,” awarding of Latin honors. However, these were only commented professor of Sociology Lionel Lewis, chairman secondary to' the “almost unanimous negative feedback” of the Faculty-Senate’s Grading and Evaluation committee from various sectors of the University as to a plus/minus and sponsor of the original motion on the committee’s grading option for instructors. Protests were filed by both behalf. Dr. Lewis cited a Grading and Evaluations Student Association (SA) President Frank Jackalone and Committee survey and last semester’s student referendum Dean of Undergraduate Education (DUE) Charles Ebert.

Dr. meaning at all. “The results of the referendum are Ebert also sent a letter to President Ketter detailing his ambiguous and can be interpreted any way you want,” dislike of the option. asserted SA Academic Affairs coordinator Mark Humm. ‘Not adequately discussed’ Dr. Ebert believes that the plus/minus option would make grading more complicated, creating problems in such areas as Scholastic Dismissal and Latin Honors. “Professional schools will make a B- into a B anyway,” Dr. Ebert observed. “Plus/minus will result in greater pressure for a faculty member to ‘up’ a student’s grade” by making smaller the gaps between grades, he explained. “The whole thing becomes totally unacceptable,” he said. Commenting on the proposal’s passage in the Faculty-Senate, Dr. Ebert maintained: “It was not adequately discussed; I’m a little bit concerned about how it was done; it was not very well thought through.” According to the Faculty-Senate’s grading resolution, scheduled to take effect in September, an A equals 4.0 quality point, A- is worth 3.7, B+ equals 3.3, etc. There will be no A+ or F+ grades. According to the motion, approved by the Senate before spring vacation, the option of adding a plus or minus to a student’s letter grade will be available only to instructors of undergraduate courses at their discretion. Surveys to replace referendums? In the referendum, 905 students voted that they were satisfied with the present grading system, while 790 students said they were not. Asked what they would prefer “as an alternative to the present grading system,” 588 students voted for the addition of a plus/minus option, 428 preferred a system of pass/fail or pass/fail/pass with honors, and 296 desired another system altogether. those who vote are “A referendum is like a poll those most interested,” commented Mr. Jackalone. “We would like to rely as little as possible” on referendums, he continued, “and possibly use the Survey Research Center to survey student opinion, which would be much more accurate.” Mr. Jackalone declared that the plus/minus resolution was contrary to student desires because, although the referendum results were vague, they clearly showed that “a significant portion of students wanted much less rigidity in the grading system,” he believes. “It is very fair to allow the faculty to be able to have this increased degree of accuracy, insofar as we retain the present grading system,” argued Dr. Segal in favor of his Reservations for PASSOVER/ • • • First and Second Seder Dinners • Box Lunches Home Hospitality for Seder Are now being taken at Hillel Table and Hi/lel House — The Spectrum is published three times a week, on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, during the regular academic year; and once a week, on Friday, during the summer months; by The Dr Charles Ebert . motion. Plus/minus “diminishes pressure for grades among students by making smaller the differences between grades,” he said. Would increase competition The SA letter was prepared by Executive vice-president Scott Salimando, Mr. Humm and Mr. Jackalone. The letter pointed out that the Faculty-Senate’s recommendation did not include a high grade of 4.3 and stated that “it is presumptuous to assume that an increase in the classification will improve the quality of evaluating student performance.” Furthermore, the letter pointed out that a plus/minus system could have an aversive effect on students applying to graduate schools. The letter also discussed the procedural difficulties of implementing the plus/minus grading system. "The nationwide trend is toward less specific grading, not more. Although we should be a leader and not a follower, this could be indicative that plus/minus is a step backward,” added the letter.

Athletic Committee Budget amendment called for in report by Dave Grainger Sports Editor i After several months of debate and discussion, the Future of Athletics Committee has issued its report, which calls for a change in the consideration of the athletic budget. The committee, headed by Bruce Engel and commissioned by former SA president Jon Dandes, has attempted to deal with several important issues regarding athletics. “I’m proud of what it is,” said Mr. Engel. “What it says is good and should be considered. There were areas in which the committee did not do all it could have done, and the report is not all that it could have been. There were discrepancies over what was the proper domain of the committee,” Mr. Engel added. The report calls for an SA constitutional amendment regulating the Student Assembly’s method of dealing with various budgets. The amendment provides that all recognized organizations would submit a budget by March IS. If the budget was not passed by the Student Assembly on or before May 15, a percentage of fees equal to the percentage that the organization received during the current year would be automatically appropriated. ‘That would have the effect of forcing the [Athletic] Department to have their budgets in by the proper time,” Mr. Engel affirmed. “It would also force the Assembly to act on it by a certain date. If they didn’t act on it, it would be automatically passed,” added Mr. Engel. The report also discussed the role of the Student Athletic Review Board. “They [SARB] will be a dynamic body dealing with situations as they happen,” Mr. Engel reported. “The idea is for a coach to come in and meet with them twice a year. Once is to discuss their budget, the other time is to discuss the general direction of the program. Scheduling is a major point. The SARfi could deal with recruiting, also,” continued Mr. Engel. Mr. Engel discussed the situation in which the athletic budget is reviewed by both the SARB and the SA finance committee. “Right now, there is A possible 10 to 30% cutback in the funding of no way to avoid that,” Mr. Engel next year’s College Work-Study program may be commented. “It would take coming, according to President Robert Ketter. The another constitutional cutback is especially severe since an additional 1600 amendment to change that students will be enrolled in the program. procedure. It would also mean a Although he announced at a Student Assembly separation of athletics from meeting before vacation that Work-Study would be everything else that SA funds. maintained at its present level, Dr. Ketter has since Hopefully, the finance committee been informed by the federal government through State University that a 10 to 30% reduction may be and Assembly members on the in the offing.

The jobs may vary from clerical work to, assisting in basis of need who experiments. Departments will be hurt There are also off-campus jobs at the YMCA, Churches, the Historical Society, and other non-profit community services. The students work 15 hours a week, and often full-time during the summer, receiving from $2.00 to $2.50 per hour, depending on the type of work. Most students earn about $700 per year. “If the program is cut back, it would not only hurt the students dependent on the money, but the departments as well. The departments depend very heavily on work-study to fill certain positions, since they pay only 20% of the student’s salary,” Mr. Carter said. While most students in the program would still be able to attend school, it would be much more difficult for many of them to afford it if not for Work-Study. Dr. Ketter also announced that there may be similar reductions in National Direct Student Loan Funds and Supplementary Educational Opportunity Grants. However, University officials will appeal the lower funding and expect to meet with some success since final allocations are usually greater than preliminary indications. �restored for the 1974-75 fiscal year in the supplemental budget. The supplemental budget consists of items not funded in the regular budget but later deemed worthy of financing. No Amherst campus shrinks Questioning the need for an educational institution as large as the projected size of the new Amherst Campus, State planning officials have deleted $3.9 million worth of planning funds for four mqor projects at the new Amherst Campus from the proposed 1974-75 budget. The projects for which money was cut include a restaurant and student activities building, a social science building, a chemistry and biology building, and a gymnasium and swimming pool, the second stage of a health and physical education complex.

LaFalco (D., announced that they will Kenmore) attempt , to get the money for Amherst - - Surest method While the regular budget has not yet received final approval by the State Legislature, it must be acted upon this week. The legislators feel the supplemental budget is the best method of obtaining money at this late date. John Neal, Assistant vice-president of Facilities Planning, said his office knew about the $3.9 million cut several months ago. He is optimistic about reinstatement of the money, however, adding that if the money comes through, planning for the Amherst Campus will recommence as scheduled. Student Association President Frank Jackalone hopes to contact state legislators, local newspapers, and Governor Malcolm Wilson, urging them to work toward reinstating the funds. In other news, SUNY Central Administration has reportedly placed a freeze on funds in the operating budget which would affect equipping of the Amherst creative crafts center. However, University officials were unable to confirm this news. Wire Service Guild continues to strike UPI represented by the Guild.

FSA cannot make a profit, only a 2% profit margin to keep it going. Dr. Ketter explained. “And if I find out Sub-Board I is making a profit, they will be out of business,” he said, noting that Sub-Board is “only a fee-dispersing entity.” Dr. Ketter indicated he was upset that “some individuals are concerned that Sub-Board would lose control” of health care, maintaining that the important thing is whether the services are provided, not who controls them. “Funds for and students have health care arc inadequate come forward with a solution to use their fees to but assist health services, which is laudable another question,” whether it’s legally possible is Dr. Ketter said. Some Sub-Board members and students believe that the issue over using student fees for health care services first surfaced because of emotional reactions, not economic gains or legal questions. Specifically, Sub-Board officials have accused Dr. Lorenzetti of vetoing the use of student funds for the birth control clinic because of his personal viewpoints. Questioned whether he personally supported or opposed birth control. Dr. Lorenzetti said: “I don’t think that’s an appropriate question that has nothing to do with it.” education is being denied. Pregnant students cannot stay in school,” Mr. Petraitis asserted. Another area of dispute concerns whether Sub-Board has been charging fees for its health services. Sub-Board had at one time been dispensing birth control pills free of charge, explained Dr. Lorcnzctti, a practice which directly influenced his decision not to sign requisition forms for the Birth Control Clinic. Tills aren’t free’ One Sub-Board spokesman maintained, however, that services had never been dispensed free of charge. “We never give out pills to anyone, nor do we sell them randomly,” said Edie Chanin, co-director of the Birth Control Clinic. She surmised that Dr. Lorenzetti may have been confused because the Clinic provides only the first month’s supply of birth control pills free of charge, a norma) procedure among doctors and clinics. “We have not been giving out professional services for free,” agreed Mr. Campagna, noting that the fees charged arc not too expensive for the average UB student.” Student fees are used only as ‘seed money’ to generate income, and any money that is advanced eventually goes back into student mandatory fee accounts, Mr. Campagna explained. In his letter to Dr. Relihan asking whether mandatory student fees could be used for health care. Dr. Ketter also asked whether FSA could legally get into the health business: “It has been suggested that there is nothing within the current FSA, contract to prohibit the FSA from establishing, for example, an operating pharmacy under the supervision of professionals from the School of Pharmacy at Buffalo.” Dr. Ketter continued: “In like fashion, it has been suggested that the Health Service could dispense prescription drugs and devices appropriate for birth control. The basic question is: Legally, can the FSA go in this direction?” — — — ‘Not entirely Ketter’s option’ Although the immediate decision to disband or increase student-funded health services at this University lies with Dr. Ketter, Dr. Relihan told The Spectrum that the issue might be one of a University-wide nature. That is: “Should there be wide-ranging health services on SUNY campuses?” “It is not entirely Ketter’s option,” Dr. Relihan said. “We must decide whether the guidelines resolve the question one way or another and whether the Trustee Resolution (mandatory fee guidelines] should be changed.” In addition to the birth control clinic, pregnancy counseling service and clinical laboratory .Sub-Board’s Health Care Division utilizes licensed professional doctors for its medical services and operates rubell screening, blood assurance program, student health insurance and various educational seminars. Future plans call for a pharmacy, speaker program, dental clinical operations, an ambulance emergency service and credit-bearing professional programs. One of the major purposes or goals of Sub-Board’s health care program, according to Mr. Campagna, is to establish a self-sufficient health care program that will eventually not be affected by SUNY policy. “Having a health care program won’t prevent the state from withdrawing funding,” he said. “When that happens, we don’t we’ll want to be caught with our pants,down have something to take its place once it’s here.” He added: “We believe that health care is a right, not a privilege.’' Sub-Board vs FSA? Mr. Campagna explained that Sub-Board was currently making plans to open a student-financed pharmacy in conjunction with the School of Pharmacy. Additionally, an ambulance service and X-ray unit are in the planning stages. Another Sub-Board spokesman explained that FSA would like to stop plans for future Sub-Board expansion because of what he termed “rapid paranoia.” Reiterating that FSA was not trying to take control of the health care operation for economic advantage, Dr. Ketter explained: ‘They came to me because of the problems with the Birth Control Clinic,” which was a $2000 debt which the Clinic was unable to pay when Dr. Lorenzetti bounced the Clinic’s requisition forms. “We [FSA] explored different ways of bailing them out. One was that FSA might be able to get into that area [health care],” Dr. Ketter said, explaining that this was why he asked for legal clarification from Albany as Happy Birthday to you . . .

He comes over to me and I ask, “Did L.L. find you?” And he says, “That tomato’s a crazy kid. And I don’t like crazy people. 1 was standing there at the fire, watching those pretty flames, and I heard this screaming. 1 entered fearlessly and found her rooting around the warehouse amid a million flaming panties, yelling, T’m here, Clark, come and get me.’ Of course, I saved her.

There’s a place for the sex stuff, but that tomato belongs in a hospital.” Perry White, out of his cubicle, excited as hell: “Was Superman at the fire?” “You bet,” says Kent. “Well, what the hell happened?” “He saved Lois Lane and caught the arsonists for God and country.” “What did he do to them?” and the s/m in White begins to show. “What any man would do: He slapped them around a little and then made them apologize.” — hung-over 10:30: Kent swaggers in (he’s on a heavy booze trip) . .

The Birth Control Clinic, student health insurance, pregnancy counseling, rubella clinic, clinical lab and blood assurance programs have been providing students with professional health until vice-president care they could afford Anthony Lorenzetti vetoed expenditures by the Birth Control Clinic last month because he felt they were not a proper use of mandatory student fees. Dr. Lorenzetti partially based his decision on the notion that student fees were being used to pay for services that would benefit only a few individuals. But the same be applied to any argument could student-funded activity from movies to a day care center, and health care is a more universal service than either. In the case of the Birth Control Clinic, only the sen/ice was paid for by fees; items like contraceptives, which are available to both males and females, are paid for by the individual. We trust that Dr. Lorenzetti's veto was nothing more than a bad professional misjudgment, and not an indication of his personal feelings, as some have charged. Once Dr. Lorenzetti's veto prevented the Clinic from paying its back debts, President Robert Ketter commendably stepped in and allowed the establishment of a "revolving account" which technically doesn't involve student fees to enable the Clinic to pay its past bills. But future expenses have been frozen, and an entire can of worms has been the central revolving around opened question: Can mandatory student fees be used for health care? The SUNY guidelines state that student fees may be used only for educational, social, recreational or cultural purposes. Health care is undeniably both an educational enterprise and a social service which most students could not otherwise afford. Additionally, interpretation of fee guidelines is usually left up to the individual campus presidents to decide. In this case, however, Dr. Ketter felt he had to seek a legal ruling from Albany. That, coupled with the fact that Dr. Ketter also asked the Albany if Administration-controlled FSA could legally into the health business, has prompted some paranoia as to whether FSA is seeking to use the fee issue to take control of the profitable health operation itself. We do not believe that this is President i<etter's motive. He, like students, is vitally interested in maintaining quality health care for students at this University. Dr. Ketter went out on a limb to enable the Birth — — — Control Clinic to continue functioning amidst the legal controversy. Despite his personal feelings, however, phrases like "birth control clinic" still generate emotional feelings in both the Buffalo community and the State Legislature. With the Legislature presently considering the SUNY budget, SUNY Central in Albany undoubtedly must be very responsive to Legislators' feelings, even if those reflect the emotional, anti-birth control feelings of their constituents. Dr. Ketter wants to see quality health care on this campus, regardless of who has to administer it. And he did not want to have the limb he was climbing out on sawed off by a negative legal ruling from Albany. So he proceeded cautiously, seeking a legal ruling first, and asking if FSA could take over health care in case Albany rules that student fees cannot be used for this vital service. Such a ruling would be extremely narrow-minded; how can the use of student fees- be illegal for something that students have overwhelmingly indicated is their top priority? Nevertheless, until all the legalistic interpretations are sorted out, a negative ruling from Albany is still possible. Such a ruling would have to be vehemently because the by students, protested Administration-run FSA does a very poor job in adhiinstering student services, as their monopolies in Food Service and the Bookstore should prove. But if the ruling were negative, and student efforts failed to reverse it, then health care provided by FSA would be better than no health care at all. And this is why President Ketter wanted to know the legality qf FSA entering the health field: to provide another option in case the worst happens. Despite some paranoia in both Sub-Board and FSA, it is doubtful that FSA would want to duplicate Sub-Board's three years of work and money to get a health care operation off the ground. They generally recognize that Sub-Board has done an excellent job in providing health services to students. But Dr. Ketter has merely been trying to keep his options open so that health care can be continued no matter what the legal ruling. We strongly urge that an accommodation be reached which would enable Sub-Board to continue to provide low-cost, high-quality health care. Nothing could be a more proper expenditure of student fees than caring for students' health. But students will have to re-examine their own options if Albany decrees that we must check into Meyer Memorial Hospital every time we are sick because we cannot spend our fees on our health. Plus/ minus fails We heartily corrmend President Ketter's decision yesterday to veto the plus/minus grading option passed by the Faculty-Senate before vacation. Our criticism of that educationally regressive proposal was echoed SA President by Jackalone, Frank Undergraduate Dean Charles Ebert, and practically all the departments that Dr. Ketter surveyed for their reactions to plus/minus. Most departments said it would hurt students vying for places in graduate and professional schools. "Almost unanimously," said Dr. Ketter's assistant, "the feedback was negative." Dr. Ketter cited many excellent reasons for to the Senate's refusing sign haaCHy-passed proposal. First, it was a simple resolution with no supporting evidence as to why plus/minus would be a positive change. It would also chop the grading scale into even more meaningless distinctions than the five letters the instructor must choose between now. He might have added that making smaller distinctions between grades which are only approximations of a student's work would increase, not reduce, competition, by giving the student a smaller and even more absurd gradation to strive for. It is quite unusual when President Ketter vetoes a Faculty-Senate resolution, but the Senate's hasty passage of such a backward proposal and the universal protest it practically demanded that he step elicited in. Students at this University have been spared the absurdity of studying all semester for a plus or a minus. Despite those that would like to see the grading scale chopped up into tenths, the inadequate system of letter grades will have to suffice for now. — — — — Page eight The Spectrum Wednesday, 27 March 1974 . . Below the belt criticism To the Editor. I was more than taken by Mr. Silverblatt’s review that of Anything Goes. It proved one thing only below the belt criticism is in ample supply, whereas groups of people working hard and working together creatively (as found in Panic Theater) are indeed rare. I had only to read as far as the comparison of a red howling money of South America to Panic Theater to know what caliber a review to expect from Mr. Silverblatt. When his desire to heave large boulders at people subsides, I hope he speaks to enough people who saw the show to realize what a tremendous performance he missed. To paraphrase his own words: I appreciate the review, some of which could have been rather striking if it hadn’t been so ineptly executed. It’s actually humorous to realize that someone with as little journalistic, critical and ethical understanding as Silverblatt has can command the title, “contributing editor” of The Spectrum. Unfortunately, his good vocabulary is laid to waste by his lack of perception, coherent ideas, and above all, insight into the philosophy of Panic Theater. My final comment is this; Judy Weinberg particularly deserves congratulations, for much more than “holding a large crowd together.” For she, and her staff enthusiastically and lovingly put together one of the finest and best received shows I’ve seen on this campus. And words like ‘.enthusiastically” - and “lovingly” perhaps help explain why, when Mr. Silverblatt and his cynisism are gone and forgotten, Panic Theater will still be playing to full houses. Kevin Parker Full-page ego boost To the Editor: Well, the SA might feel that it has “done one hell of a job” in its past administration, but it certainly lacks discretion and sense of any type. The SA had the audacity to spend mandatory student fees for a useless, ego-boosting full page ad in the March 13 edition of The Spectrum. And it is no small pittance: $175.50 (the cost of the ad) could certainly have been used for better purposes. Perhaps something useful, like serving the students’ needs.

I can assure him that the deficit in the Faculty was incurred not by the appointment of 11 tenured professors but by the complete lack of lines given us in this most recent budget. The deficit is nothing like that specified and there is no possibility that TA’s already at this University, and performing well, will be laid off. The main implications of our loss of new lines are that the recruitment of distinguished faculty must be reduced and the admission of new graduate students similarly reduced. One of the reasons alleged for our loss of new lines was that enrollment in the Faculty had declined by IS% This seems a national trend but it does have budgetary implications for us. I would advise Audit the Books not to be misled by rumors or believe that unfair employment practices will ever go into operation in Arts and Letters. As a member of the University community for the past six years, and as a participant in both undergraduate and graduate student governments during those years, I have been able to observe much of what goes on in the 205 suite of Norton Hall. On Wednesday, March 13, 1974, I was saddened to see the worst case of blatant exhibitionism in those six years, on the pages of The Spectrum. I’m not referring to the streakers, at least they had something to exhibit; I’m referring to the $175.50 full-page ad, paid for with student fees, praising the Dandes’ administration, taken out by the Dandes administration. The ad lists 50 “accomplishments.” Examining the list superficially, one might get the impression that this SA administration actually got a hell of a lot done. Closer examination reveals the list can be trimmed considerably. A number of redundancies appear Point 7 includes, “Establishment of Responsible Fiscal Authority,” Number 10, “Reduction of S.A. Deficit,” and Number 32, “Payment of all Past SA debts. Numbers 23, 38 & 39 all deal with excellent relations with faculty and Faculty-Senate committees. However, Mr. Dandes constantly antagonized many faculty members by his attacks upon them and his claim last September that there is no division between the students and administration, but between students and faculty. A group of real accomplishments (40, 41, 46, 47) deal with the North Campus. These improvements in the condition of our new campus are real, and are the accomplishment and hard work of North Campus Coordinator Howie Shapiro. Unfortunately Mr. Shapiro’s name was omitted from the list. Points 21, 22, 23, 24, 29, 30 point out establishment of excellent relationships with the UB Foundation, Faculty Senate, outside community, area legislators and UB administration. These may or may not be the case; but either way, what about relations with the other student governments, or the undergrad student body? Point 7 contends enlargment of undergraduate representation to Board of Directors of Sub-Board I, Inc. This is true. By John P. Sullivan Provost Stuffy and snobby - To the Editor. I would like to comment on the extremely insipid 13 issue) review by Mr. Michael Silverblatt (March on Panic Theater’s production of “Anything Goes.” Unfortunately, it is always so-called writers like Mr. Silverblatt who spend many words either warning the reader that he will dislike what he is about to read, or apologizing for what he has already said. This type of ‘critic’ commands little respect, and certainly leaves much to be desired. Although his tirade on the state of the performing arts at U.B. (the financial problems, etc.) contains several valid points, Mr. Silverblatt still refuses to recognize Panic Theater as anything more than it potentially good. In defense of Panic Theater has successfully filled a void at U.B. Prior to its establishment, there was no organization on campus devoted to the presentation of musical comedy, a facet of the American theater that has developed primarily during the 20th century. Apparently, Mr. Silverblatt has some very stuffy, snobbish and ridiculous ideas about American musical comedy. He also has no respect for amateur status. Panic Theater works with the people who are interested in and dedicated to the performing and technical aspects of the musical comedy. Panic Theater has never tried to produce a Busby Berkeley extravaganza with rows and rows of statuesque blonde chorus girls. Quite to the contrary the beauty of Panic Theater is its — — individuality. “Anything Goes” was performed and produced by some very talented and enthusiastic people. It pleased and entertained a large audience. Mr. Silverblatt begrudgingly gives the show two lines of conciliatory praise, and chooses to ignore entirely most of the best things about the show. He has forcing the other student governments to vote for this change by the threat of withholding funds for Sub-Board I, regardless of its effects on the undergraduate students, Jon got his fifth delegate. This delegate was bought, based on cash and nothing else. Not equal student for student representation, but on dollars like an oil company. SASU participation is not mentioned in the accomplishments. Early this year, SUNYAB’s participation in SASU was sorely jeopardized by the SA’s reluctance to push their allocation through an administrative stall, and the Graduate Student Association had to take that initiative alone. Point SO describes a strong student voice on academic issues. The plus-minus grading is still to be judged, the colleges are not what they were. In item 28 we see increased aid for health care; however, recently the Student Health Clinic couldn’t get money for three weeks, the clinic didn’t know why, Sub-Board didn’t know why, the other student governments didn’t know why. Jon Dandes did, and he wasn’t talking. Accomplishments 34 & 35, well let’s not jump the gun. Although both changes in Food Service seconds policy, and an air structure recreational facility are in the works, I haven’t seen them yet. And speaking of guns, what has the SA done to keep Security unarmed (17)? I could go on, but why not look into it yourself. I don’t want to condemn the entire SA; there were some excellent people, including Cliff Palefsky, Howie Shapiro and Bob Burrick amongst others. The blame for the Student Association more responsive to the University administration than the students belongs at the top. I’ve been here through Rick Schwab, Bill Austin, Mark Huddelston, Ian DeWaal and Debbie Benson; each of their SA’s had faults, but in comparison, the leaders were worthy of canonization. The inaction of some past SA’s would be better than the compromise of the entire student body by the outgoing president. I wish the incoming Executive Committee much luck, and I hope Mr. Jackalone, the new president, will take charge of returning the integrity to student government. Mr. Dandes’ ad cost you $175.50; I offer you my analysis free of charge. Racial discrimination in hiring To the Editor. In response to Jon Dandes’ statement, which appeared in the Buffalo Evening News on March 5, 1974, concerning Black faculty hiring at the State University of New York at Buffalo, Dandes' rebuttal was clearly irrelevant and opinionated without facts. He implied that SUNYAB hiring practices of Black is more progressive than most American universities. a tasteless and hollow review, and has obviously missed the point by a long shot. The point is that Panic Theater produced a show that was enjoyed and appreciated by those who saw it written precisely for its fun, good spirit and distinctiveness. This does not alter the fact that there is discrimination in hiring of Black faculty on this campus. Dandes used rude and ignorant tactics to attack Mr. Eve personally and evades the true point of Eve’s comments. We, the members of the Educational Opportunity Program Student Rachel Korman The Spectrum the studcnt-to-teachcr ratio among Black* the University it an unacceptable proportion in comparison to the percentage of white faculty. There are approximately 1386 full-time faculty members at SUNYAB of which 64 are Black, which comes to 0 05%. According to a Ford Foundation report issued in 1969 at least 2280 Blacks had Ph.D’s. There has been and even now exists a large poo) of well trained Blacks holding Ph.D's so supply can’t be the reason for such a low percentile of Black faculty members on campus. We demand that the University open up its files and let the true number of Black faculty be known and what departments they are associated with.

One of the ugliest facts of this whole situation is that by his own admission, living Spitzberg does not intend to stay with the Colleges. Do you realize what this means? We are the ferocious lion in the cage. He is the new tamer. That’s all we are; that’s all he is. He is not trying to shape a child of his dreams or to bring productive structures to our' campus. He is making his career. Now let me repeat again that I have great respect for Spitzberg. He is a man in possession of himself. He also is well endowed with the courage and bold ness necessary in his office. And he is an honorable man. On his second day in office he commences an attack on Shanti Parakh, who teaches yoga with us at College E. First of all, in no system of reckoning is two days enough for anybody to understand an organization such that he could commence a petty attack on ah individual instructor. Second of all, Shanti is without a doubt the most polite and considerate person in the whole damn College E. Well, see, Spitzberg comes down on Shanti with both guns a-blazing. A perceptive man, Sptizberg. Shanti was really quite upset. He asked the College what to do. Wo felt that the attack was specious first of all, but that even if Spitzberg’s case were good, we on no conditions would agree to be dealt with that way. We advised defiance and waited for further information and positions to emerge. But instead of dialogue, Spitzberg completely ignores College E’s he response and makes further threats on Shanti threatened him with criminal action. Again we advised defiance. These moves failing, he has now agreed that maybe we should dialogue some and settle this like human beings. Spitzberg, while you have left. most of the people in the Colleges with some shreds of hope, you have taken everything from at least me. If this ignorant and crass policy of yours persists, I will do everything I can to ruin your reputation as an administrator.

What has it got to loae? And isn’t this attack completely natural and justified? Spitzbeig is the boss, he has the final say. I am separate from him and under his control. Spitzberg is the new director of the Collegiate Assembly. He is the first administrator the University has come up with who it seems will be able to carry out the rape of the Colleges. Cold, observant with a- deceptive warmth, careful, understanding the logic of the situation very well. And an honorable man. The real anguish is that for many years the people in the Collegiate System have been trying to develop alternative institutions. And now not only must we undergo a “chartering” process by a spineless academic hierarchy, but our new master has a final and absolute veto over anything and everything we want to do. This goes almost to the pomt of wiping ourselves after the toilet. The Colleges have lost meaning as decision-making units. The great arm of the directorreaches unto the tiniest sparrow. As of a few weeks ago, it is no longer up to the Colleges to choose their own members and then present themselves for evaluation. We received from Irving Spitzberg letters demanding in effect that each and every instructor undergo his personal scrutiny. Evaluate the person by the ink marks and whether he is a political force or not and whether or not he or she should be castrated (removed). He has also been perfectly clear in denying any a role, however, which consensus decision-making would be consistent with the charter. No, Spitzberg is making the absurdly simple-minded assumption that the people in the Colleges are simple and in full agreement with each other all the time, when in fact the opposite is more nearly true. To guard against our simple togetherness, he feels he must retain every shred of de jure power. One is tempted to say he is a jerk. No, he im’t a jerk, he knows we are not unified; against you. he is working every day to shower benefits on the Dr. Spitzberg is invited to respond or to delineate his ideas about the Colleges in a Guest Opinion.

Good food is the way to a woman’s heart as well. Eating “But the abandoned butcher shop hadn’t been used in eight years. None of the organizers had ever rebuilt a restaurant before. But, they say, we learned more than we ever imagined.” It took the New Age children from December 1971 to last April to finally open. “We had hassles upon hassles,” one says. “It took us months just to get the garbage out of there.” But they’ve worked hard building and rebuilding, getting permits and licenses, getting money (all personal loans from anonymous donors) and finding affordable electricians and plumbers. “There are about twenty money contributors, but about 100 people have helped in one way or another,” says Steve. The Greenfield Street Restaurant is quite nice with wood floors and hanging lamps. There’s smooth light-colored wood to greet a hungry diner on the outside and a collage of plants on the inside. The huge, brightly-lit kitchen is wide open so that the constituency can and will probably change from day to day. “We are all UB t interested in serving well-prepared, home-cooked meals.

The New Age restaurant was the first restaurant of this kind begun in September of 1970. Located on Grider Street, the New Age was a very small “natural foods” restaurant serving mainly varieties of the standard vegetable and rice dish. The organizers of that restaurant were students from this University who worked as volunteers, taking as wages only a meal a day to sustain themselves. The New Age operated « smoothly in cramped quarters throughout that school year. But the demise of the New Age restaurant began in May 1971 when two of the original organizers graduated. Barbara, Any resemblance to actual events orto anyone living or dead ie no* accidental. another of the Greenfield Street’s organizers explained: “It began about then that the New Age fell apart. Everything was running smoothly during the summer of ’71, but in late August the landlord raised the rent considerably and we just didn’t have the money. I remember the day we moved all the furniture out, we sat outside on the curb deciding what to do next.” “We realized then what was really wrong with the New Age,” says Jeff. “We were operating in an ‘unrealistic utopia.’ Our alternate society inside the New Age was really inside a much larger system. We really wanted a place from which we could support ourselves. We needed a means to make a living. Our utopia just didn’t work.” Whether it was the demise of the New Age restaurant or the demise of alternative culture in America, the Organizers set out to find another restaurant to apply what they had learned from their New Age experience. In November 1971 they found an abandoned butcher shop on a quiet street called Greenfield. “We thought we’d be open in a few months,” said organizer Stu.

A - In the years following the Second World War, with the dawn of the nuclear age, the great technological schools became increasingly aware of the necessity of providing a broader education for their students in the humanities and the ethical sciences. Engineers were to occupy very prominent positions in the new techno-society which would require them to make serious decisions beyond the scope of their technical specialty. To prepare them for such responsibilities, they must be made aware that the scientist and the scholar of the humanities necessarily engage in an identical conceptual process. Our ideas of emotion beauty, and morality are subject to the same objective criteria and rational law as circuitry and fluid mechanics. Training and exercise in the humanities could therefore be beneficial to, and provide another perspective for, other fields the student might pursue. With this philosophy in mind, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) recently began a vast expansion of its arts and humanities programs. Today it is actually a full-fledged university - — pupil of the late Geoige Szell, Dr. Epstein draws out the warmth and enthusiasm of his orchestra in Szell’s manner. He believes that the orchestra maintains its consistently high quality of performance, even in the face of a constantly shifting student membership, because they regard themselves “not as students, but as young professionals who work hard to probe their music and find its meaning. We even take out the blackboard and analyze,-talk over the problems at hand and get very definite ideas about what we want to do. This intense approach, in which we expect things of each other, naturally attracts a very high caliber of musician, and in this way we continue to grow artistically.” ■ The MIT orchestra plays an unusual and intriguing repetoire, as well as more traditional fare, partly for their own musical growth and performing pleasure, and also to attract the huge numbers of students in the Greater Boston area. It is perhaps this attraction of student to student which induces them to accept many engagements on campuses; and under the auspices of the State University of Buffalo Department of Music and the current Art-Topsy Spring Arts Festival, the MIT Symphony will be appearing at Kleinhans Music Hall this Wednesday evening, March 27. They will perform Harbjson’s incidental music to The Merchant of Venice-, Ernest Bloch’s Hebraic Suite, featuring one of the most dynamic young violists on the American scene, Marcus Thompson; and a work very popular with Buffalo and campus audiences, Mahler’s Symphony no. 1 in D Major, the Titan.

Local control Nixon urges support of education funding President Nixon requested Congressional support last weekend for educational funding proposals now before Congress, which would provide an increase in local and community control of schools, substantial the legislation and continuation of financial support anti-busing programs for college students. “The Congress is rapidly approaching the time when it must make decisions that will significantly affect the future of American education,” Mr. Nixon speech said a weekend in broadcast nationwide from the Presidential retreat at Camp David. The President’s remarks were directed toward legislation now under consideration in both the House and Senate. Terming the House measure “a bill that represents a step in the right toward direction more community and state control over their elementary and secondary schools,” Mr. Nixon added: “Parents know that the education of their children can most effectively be carried out in neighborhood schools.” The Senate, which is also considering new legislation to change educational funding, was cautioned by Mr. Nixon that he veto “any bill that complicates the funding process and hinders the return of control to states and communities.” would Aid to college students The Presidential address dealt also with the program of Basic Opportunity Grants (BOGs) and the system of guaranteed student loans currently being scrutinized by Congress. The White House has been supporting a program of direct educational grants to college students, making annual funds of up to $1400 available to each eligible student who would be eligible for such a grant is also being debated. Mr. Nixon referred to the failure of the Senate to allocate the necessary $ 1.4 billion he requested for that purpose in 1973. Mr. Nixon emphasized his opposition to extensive busing measures, and his support for community control over local school decisions. “With the help of the Congress, I believe we can turn our hope for more local control over education into reality within a matter of weeks,” Nixon said.

Three of the four Buffalo victories came against Biscayne College, but the other was an 8-5 win over Southern Illinois, the nation’s seventh-ranked squad. Buffalo failed to win a game in the five-team Hurricane Twin Tournament at Miami, posting an 0-5-1 record. The Bulls were thrashed twice by Miami, the eighth-ranked team in the country, 5-2 and 14-1. Buffalo also dropped decisions to Ohio State (5-1), playoff rival Seton Hall (9-4) and Michigan State, while playing the Spartans to a 7-7 tie in another contest. Miami won the tourney with six consecutive wins, including a 16-0 annihilation of Ohio State. Second baseman Rich Magliazzo was the Bulls’ offensive star during the southern trip, hitting safely 19 times in 34 at bats, a .558 clip. The senior second sacker was named to the tournament’s all-star squad. Shortstop Jim Lalayanis, who hit .406, joined pitcher Jim Niewczyk on the tourney’s second team. r----- PROFESSOR WILLIAM J.

"Class Conflict, Segregation, and Racism in Historical Perspective" Catcher Gary Cox ripped opposing hurlers at a .400 pace in Florida. A lack of fielding hurt the Bulls on several occasions. Buffalo lost its opener to Florida International, 10-5, while committing seven errors. The Bulls committed six misplaysin their 5-1 defeat at the hands of Ohio State. The losses were the first ever suffered in collegiate competition by Bull ace righthander Jim Riedel. The Sophomore fireballer did not allow an earned run in either contest. The Bulls also experienced days when their pitchers couldn’t seem to find the plate. In the Bulls loss to Michigan State, righthander Mike Dean walked the first six batters he faced. A hit then gave the Spartans a 4-0 first-inning lead. The most damaging loss in Florida was probably the Seton Hall defeat. The Pirates were also a member of the District II Tournament field Iasi season. Buffalo must defeat the Pirates twice at Seton Hall when they meet on April 6 in order to be considered ahead of Seton Hall in the playoff picture this year. ------------------1 1 •I7-US4 - sverynaa's book stow fice# final kNks Irm lam mi small pnutt; literary t «■ March 28th 1:30 p.m. Room 147 Diefendorf Hall "The Changing Role of Ethnic Consciousness" ycrirticalt. iapartrt carts, ■taal gift Haas The University community it cordially invited to attend.

Page thirteen . �by Bruce Engel Contributing Editor quite a Buffalo Coach Ed Michael’s wrestling program bit in the last few years. The Bulls have compiled excellent dual meet records against good competition and have won or placed high as a team in many tournaments. However, one of Michael’s major goals remains unaccomplished. As the weekend spring vacation began, Michael took his two top wrestlers, Jim Young and Charlie Wright, to the National Collegiate wrestling championships in Ames, Iowa. The Bulls hoped to return with a national placewinner. something Buffalo has never had. Young was thought to have an excellent shot after having lost by only a point to defending champion Don Rohr of Clarion State in the qualifying tournament. Ironically, Wright came closer to placing, but both Buffalo wrestlers fell short of the mark. Michael claimed he wasn’t disappointed, though he admitted that Young and Wright could have done better. “1 felt they wrestled well,” the coach said. ‘This was the strongest national tournament I’ve ever seen,” Michael added. We really felt we had people who were capable, but we did not achieve the goal,” he continued. ‘‘We still haven’t come far enough in our program of the development of our athletes. It is difficult to do this when you do not enjoy the tools that those who traditionally have done this have at their disposal,” Michael added, citing a lack of scholarships, facilties and adequate support from the Student Association, which funds all athletic programs. ‘ Wright excels Wright a 190-pounder, wrestled “as good as he has all year,” in Michael’s words, but against better competition than he has seen all season. In the first round, Charlie defeated sixth-seeded Keith Leland from California Poly. Leland had won the Division Two nationals the week before to qualify for the Ames event. However, those impressive credentials did nothing to deter Wright. The Bull 190pounder rode Leland tenaciously and utilized two takedowns in the third period for a 6-2 win. In the second round Wright had little trouble with Minnesota’s Evan Johnson, shooting the works for a 13-4 decision. When Wright’s upper body moves are working, he is hard to beat. A headlock in the first 30 seconds got Charlie five quick points and set the tone for the rest of the bout. Nacin’s beating It was all downhill from there, however. In the quarterfinal round, where a win would have assured at least a sixth place finish, the Buffalo star was mauled by Iowa State’s third-seeded A1 Nacin. Nacin gave Wright a physical beating bad enough to cause Michael to refer to the natch as a “public mugging.” Nacin, who placed third in the tournament, opened up a cut over Wright’s right eye that required four stitches. With a little less than a minute remaining in the match, Nacin added insult to injury by pinning his Buffalo opponent. Wright could not recover sufficiently from this match by the time of his consolation round bout later that night, and dropped a 6-0 decision to Lehigh’s Don McCorkel. . waterskiing, swimming (W5I), pioneering and trips, canoeing, sailing, archery, team sports, arts & crafts, pianist, gymnastics, seamstress for accompanied by captivating notes and sounds.

Public hearing considered Meanwhile, Mr. Eve has stated that he is prepared to call on the Congressional Black Caucus Press copies available Dr. Ketter explained that he had not received to convene a public hearing in Buffalo to assist in Mr. Eve’s letter until March 5, even though copies of determining whether he or Dr. Ketter “is accurate” that letter were “available to the local and student regarding the 1971 visit by HEW.

Because women supposedly earn about $100 less than men during the summer, they can conceivably be awarded up to $100 more than men in their financial aid packages, according to lan DeWaal, a law student and member of the Committee on Financial Aid for students. “They really don’t look at summer earnings,” Mr. DeWaal asserted. “They simply estimate what you should have earned,” he said. “We have used an arbitrary figure; there is no way to deny this administratively,” agreed Anthony Lorenzetti, assistant vice-president for Student Affairs. “But that’s how it’s done with all students. There is no way of knowing precisely who earned what,” Dr. Lorenzetti explained. 1966 figures used Financial Aid bases this policy on a 1969 report by College Scholarship S e r vices (CSS) entitled Student Summer Earnings Expectations in College Scholarship Services Needs Analysis Procedures. This report cites two articles by Vera C. Ferrell a in Monthly Labor Review which quotes statistics showing that college-age men work more hours per week than women. The survey was done in October 1966. Every student eligible for financial aid is expected to make a contribution toward his education. This required minimum contribution, along with Regents Scholarships and any other resources, is subtracted from the individual student’s “budget” to arrive at his financial need. Last year, financial aid recipients were given approximately 50 per cent of their projected need. The minimum contribution required from freshmen is $400 for men and $300 for women. For sophomore financial aid recipients, men are expected to contribute $500, whereas women are expected to provide $400. Upperclassmen, independent, graduate and professional students expected to make a are contribution of $600 if they are men, and $500 if they arc women. Difference called unjustified The system by which these figures are used in determining financial aid is “arbitrary and capricious,” Mr. DeWaal said. “In this day and age,” he continued, “if one is going to establish an arbitrary distinction, they should have a normal justification for doing so; they should arbitrarily expect the same from both men and women.” Mr. DeWaal objected to the use of a statistical average in determining the needs of individual students. He cited the hypothetical example of a female freshman who earns $1000 a summer being required to make a minimum contribution of $300, while a male freshman who earns the same $500 a summer is —continued on page 2— ‘Lack of cooperation’ disputed Dr. Ketter sharply denounced Mr. Eve’s statement that the University had failed to cooperate Robert Ketter Few black Ph.D’s Dr. Ketter added that 4.6% of the University’s —continued on Arthur Eve page 16— —Santos �Academic departments planfor move to Ellicott by Diane R. Miller Spectrum Staff Writer Most of the 1200 students living at the Ellicott Complex next fall should be able to take most of their loWer division courses on that campus. Although this goal should make the Amherst Campus more attractive to the next year’s Amherst residents than this year’s, the reaction was mixed among by the departments chosen computer-assisted tests to move to Amherst by next fall. The departments of Classics, French, Germanic and Slavic Languages, History, Linguistics, Spanish,' Italian and Portuguese, the Critical Languages program, and some of the newly-Chartered Colleges will have office, classroom and library space at the Ellicott Comples, and will offer all of their upper division and graduate courses there. Some courses in these departments will also be offered on the Main Campus and at Ridge Lea. “Most departments will teach some lower division courses at the Ellicott Complex to meet the needs of the undergraduates living there,” said William Baumer, assistant vice-president for Academic Affairs. “Seventy-five to 80 per cent of the lower division enrollment of those students at Ellicott Complex will be taught there. The situation “will be inconvenient until the whole campus is moved,” Dr. Baumer said. However, he will try to provide a fair amount of cross-registration at the Ellicott Complex. Cross registration C ross-registration involves providing related courses in departments other than the one in which the student is majoring. Two=thirds of the students in the upper division of the language departments are language majors or social science majors. The Linguistics Department has its own majors, language department majors and social science majors. TTie History Department and some of the Colleges volunteered to move to the Ellicolt Complex.

Transportation problems will arise because elementary courses meet four or five times a week. French majors who take upper-level courses at Ellicott and teach lower-level courses on the Main Campus will also have transportation difficulties. - peasant Proximity needed French courses contain “an orientation towards English, theater, art, and comparative literature.” A student in the French Department needs proximity to these other units and to the “cultural life of the community around him. To isolate him on a' campus far away is to shut him off,” Said Dr. Simon. The study of French is tied in with other disciplines and that his department “does not want to teach strictly French,” he added. Like the Classics Department, «Dr. Simon is also worried about library facilities. Paul Garvin, head of the Linguistics Department, is “ambivalent but aware of the fact that people from related departments” will be at the Ellicott Complex. For*this reason he thinks his department is better located there. He is “not terribly enthusiastic,” but realizes the practicality of the move. His department, which is mainly graduate students, hopes to “expand cooperation with other departments, take advantage of other departments being there,” and “share the language labs.” • The decision to move all these departments was made on the basis of “computer-assisted tests,” which weighed such factors as bus transportation, space adaptability, and library facilities. “The computer is an impartial way of looking at this ' problem,“ said John Telfer, vice-president for Facilities Planning. “A great deal of work remains to be done" before class scheduling is* completed, he added. • . Financial aid —continued from page 1— required to contribute $400. This male-female discrepancy is unjustified, Mr. DeWaal charged. Dr. Loienzetti stressed the time fqfo\or in determining financial aid awards, and pointed out that his Student Affairs office is already preparing for next September. ‘There is no way of knowing how much the [state] Legislature will give us until July,” he maintained. ‘Men can earn more The CSS Report “is the best information available; if there was better information, we would use it,” Dr. Lorenzetti asserted. He continued: “We deal with hundreds of students from varying circumstances and different situations juniors vs. freshman, graduate vs. professional students there are many different variables.

Mr. Stillwell said it would be “a disservice to women to apply the same figure.” Dr. Lorenzctti emphasized that the student’s minimum required contribution is only a small part of determining his ultimate award. He felt that the $100 difference was relatively small. However, Mr, DeWaal maintained that even though the $100 differential is small, it-is.unjustified' In.many cases, the $100 less that women are supposed to earn per summer is often made up in loans, scholarships, and other monetary awards, according to Mr. DeWaal. ‘The $100 does not make that much difference because full need is never met,” said Dr. Lorenzctti. It could make some difference for students in the Educational Opportunities Program, he admitted, whose loan may be a good chunk of their need. “CSS figures are really suggested figures,” Mr. Stillwell observed. ‘They simply represent the best estimate of costs; the whole thing has to be done on an estimated basis. It can’t be done in an exact dollars and cents way,” he added. �. ii A .V v * - '-*• 'it ■ ' I 'v'i/-, ’• * � , , Javits on public campaignfinancing .*• campaign spending now being proposed, he said. by Ellen Eckstein Spectrum Staff Writer trust. Public financing ‘essential’ There are presently two proposals for campaign financing, Mr. Javits explained; one is in the Senate Rules Committee, the other has been proposed by the President. The proposal in the Senate committee allows for a splitting of public and private financing. If a senator is privately able to raise $125,000 in funds, then that amount will be matched by public funds. There are including President Nixon who people oppose using the public treasury to Help, finance political campaigns. Mr. Javits replied: “An individual might oppose the building of a dam or a bridge, or assistance which might flow to the poor or the ill, but to this is the essence of our society govern by majority decisions through the Opening with a few remarks On Watergate, Senator Javits said: “It should have taught us a great deal about how campaigns are run and especially about campaign contributions.” He added that President Nixon’s aides “would do anything to get the expenditures in order to get Nixon.” The laundered money of Watergate has led to the reforms of “In the past two years, grim experience has compelled me to now feel that public financing is essential to help eliminate the grimy business of accumulating campaign funds,” Senator Javits declared.

Criticisms and breakdowns abound in Bluebird buses “God is driving this bus,” proclaimed the driver. “Everytime 1 put on the brakes, I pray,” said Lloyd Simpson, an outspoken Bluebird Coach lines bus driver who was suspended last Friday after refusing to drive a bus which he termed unsafe. According to Bluebird, Lloyd, a familiai; figure to all Amherst Campus residents who take the bus to the Main Campus, was suspended for “going off an assigned route, having a female companion on a vehicle and publicly condemning the bus company, while 13 minutes ahead of schedule.” Bus 164, which runs daily between the Amherst and Main Street Campuses, was taken off the road by the New York State Department of Transportation (DOT) on Friday, for having brakes which did not meet the state’s safety standards.

New York, Second Class postage Buffalo, New York. Circulated to paid at 30,000 University at Buffalo faculty and staff. New State students, when tested on Friday, it took a distance of 20 feet to stop at a speed of 20 miles an hours, failing by only two feet to meet state standards. During the past few weeks, Bluebird buses operating for the University have been plagued with frequent breakdowns and scheduling problems which have dismayed students commuting between campuses. Following a collision two weeks ago of two public school buses in Hamburg, N.Y., the state began a concentrated effort to spot-check vehicles in the Buffalo area, a routine procedure following an accident. Both a Ridge Lea bus. and Bus 239, one of two 20-year-old buses in service on the Amherst-Main St. route and said to be in excellent shape were by a Bluebird dispatcher removed from service by DOT. One student laughed at what was termed ‘excellent shape’: “Everytime the driver shifts gears, it feels like the engine’s gonna fall out.” Roger Freiday, who took over University Busing on February 1, maintained that February’s record of 1% bus time lost due to breakdowns over 10,000 passenger miles travelled in that month was very good. However, he added; “Breakdowns seem to occur at critical times, like 8:30 in the morning when the buses are crowded with students going to class.” - — Complaints welcome Leigh Weber, chairman of the Amherst Busing Committee, blames most of the problems on the drivers, the equipment and a breakdown in communications between the bus company and its employees. University busing, Mr. Weber said, has tried hard to meet student demands, while working within their limited budget. He credits Mr. Freiday with making sincere efforts to device workable schedules and being responsive to student needs. These efforts can be nullified, however, Mr. Weber explained, when the busing office specifies a bus with a certain capacity for one route, and gets a smaller one; or when a driver doesn’t follow the time schedule. Asked to comment on what one student once facetiously referred to as ‘the Bluebird of Happiness,’ Mr. Freiday said he would need more time to continue his extensive investigation of bus service and make subsequent recommendations. Since he began running busing operations, Mr. Freiday has personally made over 200 observations of the service. Students having information to report about bus mishaps should not hesitate to call Mr. Freiday “with just two pieces of information, bus number and time.” Bluebird President Maniano said that there was absolutely no truth to the rumor that his company was given until March 15 to get its equipment in shape or lose its contract. He said he is “trying to serve the University in the best way possible,” adding that by June 1974 three new transit-type buses will be delivered for University service. Bluebird’s contract with the University runs until June 1975. Meanwhile, Lloyd Simpson is on suspension, pending hearings into the charges made against him. He continues to criticize his employer for “not giving a damn about the students” and for running poorly-equipped buses in which, he says, “they wouldn’t let animals be shipped Wednesday, 13 March 1974 . The Spectrum Page three . �Streaking threatens image: another student ‘phase r by Marc Gordon not as a Reluctantly, I take up streaking pasttime, but as a subject of discussion. Recultantly because, in and of itself, streaking does not merit one-tenth of .the attention it has already received. I find it harmless, pointless, and a little insipid; but 1 find it, nevertheless, wherever 1 look: in Time Magazine, in the Buffalo Evening News, on the Ron Hunter Report. As streaking forced itself on my attention from every side, 1 realized that 1 could no longer avoid discussing it when five streakers ran past me Friday night in Norton Hall. In case you have not looked into any periodicals or out of any windows recently, streaking is a form a person runs from point of flitting nudity of undress. Although the A to point B in a state whole point of streaking is to be seen, or at least to run the ‘risk’ of being seen (in the case of relatively timid streakers, who run thinly populated courses), it is quite a different phenomenon from old-fashioned exhibitionism. With the doodle-dashers, who spring from the bushes to open their raincoats, the whole focus of attention is on the genitals, with the idea of presenting them to a select audience. It is a hobby exclusively associated with male perverts. Streaking, on the other hand, seems to be a more universal phenomemnon. It is being billed as the new campus fad; all over the country typical normal college students of both sexes are taking off their clothes and putting on their Keds. Streakers are not disgusting perverts who wisk to confront a stranger with their sexuality, they’re just kids, like me and you, out to have a good time by doing something naughty. We must also distinguish streaking from another of its cousins casual nudism. Nudism has generally been associated not with perverts but with weirdos; nonetheless, it seems like a perfectly reasonable idea to me. It represents a much healthier attitude towards the human body then the titillation and ■ - — Photos by mcniece and Allan Page four . The Spectrum Wednesday, ,13 . IVJarch 1974 taboo approach of streaking does. I assume that streaking would have no appeal for the casual nudist; he would not be in such a hurry. One thing puzzles me about streaking. Behind every previous fad I could detect a vested interest which stood to profit from it. The plastics industry had a stake in Rat-finks and hula-hoops. The hatcheries and pet stores profited from the goldfish-swallowing fad. Phonebooth-stuffing, no doubt, was good publicity for Ma Bell. But what vested interest stands to gain from an interest in divestment, in the form of streaking? The striking Farah slacks workers, perhaps. As I pointed out earlier, the significance «f streaking lies not in the activity itself, but in the publicity it has received. Streaking does not represent any revolution in sexual or cultural mores. If anything, it serves to reinforce the attitude that nudity is a no-no. But streaking is kinky enough to make good copy, and the news media are full of it. Bad enough that 1 was unable to escape it; but what really worries me is that nobody in America will be able to escape it. Our public image as college students is at stake. My concern is not that the rank-and-file of middle America might find streaking shocking and outrageous, or might decide that college students are a bunch of filthy perverts. Quite the contrary, I am afraid they will find it reassuring; “Now that college students have passed through their rioting phase, they are settling back and directing their energies once more into harmless pranks like streaking.” 1 agree that rioting was a misdirection of energy, a case of not knowing who one’s real enemies are, but the energy involved was essentially political in its character. Streaking is not merely a more innocuous manifestation of that same energy; it is a separate, apolitical phenomenon. As long as the rest of America is able to convince itself that rioting was just good clean fun that got out of hand, we, as college students, are in danger of not being taken seriously. » �wanted to meet girls * “I just did it on the spur of the moment,” declared Harry Downey, a pre-law sophomore who streaked past over a thousand people in front that’s him of Goodyear Hall Monday naked as a jaybird (see photo without the vest). “I’ve been doing this sort of thing for awhile,” he admitted. “I used to do it in high school only we called it mooning then.” Mooning, the favorite exhibitionist’s pasttime before streaking became popular, is the art of ungraciously bearing the rear end to any number of shocked onlookers. “I ran through the aisles mooning in high school Assembly, wavinmy underwear,” Mr. Downey told The Spectrum after his streak. Although that episode earned him a suspension, Mr. Downey continued his pasttime. “This school’s so boring 1 wanted to liven things up you know, theshock value,” he said. He admitted he had another, more selfish reason for his noontime streak past Goodyear: “1 wanted to 1 figured this would get me some attention. Everyone meet some girls I’m the guy who stole the pizza last week while knows me now streaking. Good pizza, too.” The two other streakers who accompanied Mr. Downey were strangers until they came up to him at Goodyear basketball courts and joined him in getting undressed. What, then, did the nude trio say to each other after the triumphant streak which drew a bigger crowd than College rallies, political speakers and intramural football? “We just said 'Good streak’, he revealed. “That’s what streakers always say after a streak.” — - — — - — ” Wednesd'aV', 15 Mcki'efi 1974 .

For about the last three yean, public radio station WBFO (88.7 FM) has been going out of its way to broadcast such performers as Ed O'Reilly, Tony and John and Leon Redbone. They've got tapes made at the Buffalo folk festivals, the Mariposa festivals in Toronto, the U.B. coffeehouse series and tapes made in the WBFO studios. All of this is nice, but what about the masses who want to hear twenty-minute Greatful Dead cuts? Is any station in town still providing this service? How hip is 'BFO? The station's preoccupation with the seemingly esoteric has been questioned, at times. Recently,, none other than Bob Dylan gave WBFO a reason to say, "See, I told you so!" In an interview with Rolling Stone Magazine (Feb. 14. 1974), Dylan said he'd want Redbone if his Ashes and Sand record label were a reality. "Leon interests me. I've heard he's anywhere from 25 to 60. I've been this close and I can't tell. But you gotta see him." For the benefit of both the recently curious and the died-in-the-wool Leon Redbone fans, WBFO will, broadcast about three hours of those "esoteric Redbone tapes."

Under the present system, certain students’ full tuition bill is paid for by the state. $650 is given to eligible freshmen and sophomores, while juniors and seniors receive $800. According to TAP guidelines, these same students would be awarded approximately $510 and $460 respectively. In other words, an upper division student who now has his entire tuition waived would pay $340. “Even for students without a brother or Private school representatives were equally adamant in their support for the Tuition Assistance Program. Cornell University President Dale R. Corson said there must be a “diversity of choice” for students wishing to attend college. “The TAP proposal would provide this by making it less expensive for a student to attend a private school,” he said. Another proposal yet to be submitted, the Stafford-Anderson Plan, “promises to be the most comprehensive financial aid program thus far,” contended Ms. Ranagan. One of its major goals is to unite all the state financial aid programs onto one application and to coordinate this with federal financial aid programs. Status change is possible for Campus Security If by Louis Gerzofsky Spectrum Staff Writer Wearing brown blazers, they patrol the dormitories and streets of the University. Officially, they have the power to make arrests and issue summons, but they don’t carry guns. Campus Security officers have almost all the powers of the Buffalo City Police, yet in the eyes of the state, they don’t carry the official designation of police officers. Student Association (SA) president Jon Dandes has that the status of proposed Campus Security be changed from “peace officers” to “police security.” This change would result in full recognition from other police organizations, a more defined statement of the Campus Security role, and an increase in employee benefits. According to one security officer, only the state police force acknowledges them as thp state legislature defined Campus Security’s role officially as police officers instead of as a security force, certain problems might be cleared up.

When security officers brought criminals to court, “their status was inevitably questioned,” said Mr. Griffin. The average age of security officers is 32 years. More than half the security officers are under 30. Although two years of college education is required, twice as many officers have four years of college as have the minimally two required years. These youthful officers do not have on-the-job disability or death benefits, and their peak salary is under $ 10,500 a year. ‘Stepping Stone’ One officer asked how he was supposed to support a wife and family with such a salary. His partner sees this job as a “stepping stone till something better comes along.” Both officers, however, stated they would like to stay if the salary and benefits increased proportionately to their qualifications. the question of selective arming would remain open.

Mark Sick, the Scholastic Housing-Corporation director, is trying to alleviate the problem for many University students. The group’s main goals are to expand the amount of available quality housing at the lowest possible prices and provide an opportunity to experience alternative living styles. Many landlords .charge exhorbitant prices and _ • * insist on twelve-month instead of nine-month leases, thus making students pay rent for the three summer months they do not occupy the house, explained Mark Sick, a member of Scholastic Housing’s board of directors. Scholastic Housing will supply housing for married students and smaller double apartments mainly for graduate students, since these groups often require different living arrangements than undergraduates. Scholastic Housing is financed by Sub-Board and uses an income-offset, or break-even budget, making it possible to charge students much less than local landlords. Scholastic Housing has been allocated a total of approximately $75,000, $34,000 of which has already been spent on operational expenses and buying a co-op located at 252 Crescent Street. The co-op houses 20 people and students can commute to and from the Main Campus on a bus which runs every hour from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. “A long-range goal is to provide housing for students at the North Campus, since many do not like living in the dorms,” Mr. Sick said. “In September, if we can get an OK from the Administration, we hope to have about five houses available, on the first-come, first-served basis,” Mr. Sick noted. He said that in the long run, it is cheaper to buy a house rather than to rent it for a few years. Broken ordinances Investigating student housing by Ilene Dube Spectrum MARCH 12 13 ‘ UAB A COMEay of MUROERS CHARLES CHAPLIN Staff Writer There is a City of Buffalo ordinance on the books which states that “no more than two unrelated persons” live together in an apartment. If enforced to the letter, of course, this largely-ignored ordinance could be used to evict 5000 University off-campus. students living Students testified at the Buffalo Common Council for the repeal of the ordinance, but were stymied District when then-University Councilman Charles Volkert spoke out against them. Bill Price, who defeated Mr. Volkert and became Councilman last semester, has set up a committee of University students and investigate From an idcA suqqcsTEd by Orson H%Ues u/irh MartNa Rave WRITTEN, diRECTld ANd SCORcd by CIiarUs ChApliN an rbc turns presentation SAmORAI to people student housing community conditions. Since the committee was formed, it has not met, but Mr, Price has also organized a group of researchers under the coordination of Ira Chenkin, assistant director of the Legal Aid Clinic, to investigate the housing laws that are most frequently broken by landlords and students. This investigation will take the form of a door-to-door inspection of student-rented apartments to check for “third floor occupancy with no means of fire egress, and other situations where landlords are milking profits from students without putting anything in,” Mr. University at Stony Brook, and is now being appealed before the U.S, Supreme Court, with a decision expected in June. The Buffalo housing ordinance is clearly uncontitutional and discriminatory and should be repeated, declared Cliff Palefsy, SA Student Rights Coordinator. Mr. Price originally planned to try to change the law to read “no than more four unrelated persons,” but when asked Monday what he thought of the possibility of repealing these laws, he said there are other more important factors to be dealt with first. "Dealing with housing problems is like dealing with a chessboard,” Mr. Price said. “No matter how you act, other things will be influenced that may work against you. occupancies, Involving illegal there are two One, students can alternatives. stay where are, or two, students can go somewhere else and put pressure on new housing.” His proposed pattern of action is to first assemble data on selected then landlords, and follow through with inspection on these houses. “You cannot deal with the whole problem, it is too complex,” said Mr. Price, who favors a step-by-step approach. Target: Absentee landlords First, you must enforce the laws on violators both students — and landlords, although in most 300 replies, the average rent paid by students was about S60 to $65; landlords were found to be hesistant to respond to complaints unless consistently bothered; and no landlord ever kept any promise that wasn’t contained in the lease. Surprisingly, however, 90% of the student respondents said they would recommend their apartments to other students. “The other 10% is still too many,” said Mr. Price. “There is also the problem of future renters that we must consider, and non-student neighbor complaints is still another problem we must contend with.” Many common practices by landlords must be eliminated. He cited one landlord as showing several prospective customers the same apartment simultaneously, and then having them bid for the highest rent. “These are the things we must document and get facts on so we can stop them, Councilman Price asserted. This same landlord was cited as not reporting renovation on his houses so he could avoid assessment taxes and make a ” higher profit. A landlord who such illegal repairs is helping students at the same time as breaking the law, and it is this kind of practice that will make the student hesitant in helping to bring about housing reform. Mr. Price noted that “this is no longer 1968, and a great deal of student apathy prevails. It is only makes Chenkin explained. Heath, Englewood cited “We expect to find many of these run-down houses on Heath Street and Englewood Avenue,” said Mr. Chenkin. “There are laws that landlords have been neglecting for years, such as obtaining a permit for third floor committee’s occupancy.” The report will be sent to Councilman Price, who will present the evidence to the Buffalo Common Council for reform legislation. The problem is that many students are living under illegal conditions already ‘illegal’ - according to the “no more than two unrelated persons” ordinance and it would become difficult for these student ‘offenders’ to argue for housing reforms in council or court. While Mr. Price feels that housing ordinances should be uniformly enforced to prptect both students and the landlords, maximum occupancy ordinance which would evict thousands of students could create if enforced difficulties in pressing for housing reform. A similar zoning law has been found unconstitutional in a case - - — involving ipporte students at the State cases it will be the landlord, Mr. Price said. organize Second, you must through administrative law, some sort of housing rehabilitation. Present conditions encourage absentee landlords, and the committeee plans to crack down on such absentee owners. Mr. Palefsy’s committee has already compiled data on some facts about student housing. From occupants who can encourage maintenance.’ Mr. Price concluded: “This is only the beginning of what we are seeking to do, and it is a very complicated process that will require a lot of work, especially with student apathy. First we must build up a foundation. We aren’t even sure of the right questions to ask.” Wednesday, 13 March 1974 .

Or should the confidentiality policy be dropped, with the potential risk of seriously harming the graduate school and employment opportunities of the students? These questions are part of the complex issue concerning the 4000 confidential credentials files which are established each year at the University Placement and Career Guidance Office (UPCG) in Hayes C. ■rfie confidential files consist of letters of recommendation which are submitted by professors, employers, and counselors to evaluate a student’s abilities and character. When applying to graduate or professional school, or for a job, the student then requests that the credentials file be sent to the appropriate schools or employers to fulfill the requirement for letters of recommendation. The Arthur Burke, Advisement Counselor for Graduate Schools. Should a student invest this time and money to send out letters about himself which he cannot see? Should he risk his future because his file contains one weak letter which dims the other strong recommendations? Or because one letter contains a casual and seemingly innocuous phrase such as “After recovering from his illness, his work improved greatly” which, contrary to the evaluator’s intent, may be damaging in the eyes of a grad school appraisal committee? Furthermore, since UPCG also has a counseling function, shouldn’t the advisors be able to fully use the contents of the evaluation in counseling the student? “Counseling is also a part of the teaching and professional function,” Mr. Burke said. Therefore, some feel the confidential appraisals might be better utilized if the student could constructively use the opinions expressed therein to gain a better perspective of him or herself. student has no access to the confidential file in University Placement; only members of the UPCG staff and those schools and companies to which the student requests the files be sent can see the contents of the file. According to Gene Martell, Director of UPCG, over 19,000 credential files were sent to graduate schools and employers last year. Also, in that same period, over 9100 letters of recommendation were received by University Placement. Mr. Martell sees UPCG’s credential file service as “a great convenience,” for it allows encapsulation of the student’s file and allows evaluations to be written only once, thus relieving professors of having to write a recommendation for the same student several times for different schools. Also, it gives the student a permanent (if the student so desires) single credentials file, which he can conveniently draw upon at any time in the future. However, the picture is clouded by the confidentiality dilemma. Student interest The argument for ending the policy of confidentiality is basically that the confidential file may not be in the student’s best interest. Students at this University who apply to graduate school apply, on the average, to nine schools, spending $176 in the process, explained - Florida files open There are a number of arguments which support maintaining the current closed status of the confidential files. One of the strongest is that graduate schools and employers overwhelmingly require confidential letters of recommendation. For example, in a survey done for the UPCG last semester, only one graduate department of the 12 polled at this University indicated that it did not require confidential recommendations. If these files were open to the, students, the applicants might be passed over by graduate schools and employers. In fact, this has been the case in Florida, Mr. Martell explained. It is the only state where files are open, and Florida students are experiencing great difficulties in obtaining admission to graduate schools outside of Florida. ' Both Mr. Martell and Mr. Burke speculated that an easing of the job and graduate school markets might potentially lead to a tendency to open the files. Lawsuit defeated A further argument for maintaining closed files comes from a recent national survey conducted by American School, College and University Staffing, which found that 70% of faculty members polled were opposed to completely dispensing with confidential files. Mr. Martell questioned who would write the recommendations if that 70% refused. The legality of the situation is also Page eight. The Spectrum Wednesday, 13 March 1974 . complex. Files in Admissions and Records are mandatory and, therefore, open to the student by law. However, the confidential credentials files are voluntary, though this draws arguments, and any policy is therefore legally acceptable. Lawsuits, notably one in Wisconsin, initiated to open credentials files have been dismissed because it is a “voluntary” file involving a contractual agreement with the school, an agreement the student enters by implication when establishing the file. At this University, students are informed when establishing the file that it is closed to them. There are occasional questions and complaints about this policy. New legislation needed Mr. Burke quest'.ons die validity of the voluntary claim. Since graduate schools and employers require recommendations, students must keep such files. And particularly at a school the professors balk at writing the size of this University numerous individual letters. UPCG provides a centralized service to eliminate this need. A federal decision, either judicial or legislative, might remedy the situation — - somewhat by placing all states on equal standing; if every university had open files, no school would be put at a competitive disadvantage with respect to graduate school opportunities. However, this solution doesn’t alter the fact that many professors want the evaluations they write to be kept confidential. Mr. Martell and UPCG have been working “to get the best system to serve the student and maintain confidentiality.” Both Mr. Martell and Mr. Burke feel that the ideal situation occurs when the evaluator discusses his appraisal with the student. “A considerable number of the student a copy of professors either the letter or go over it with the student. Discussion is the ultimate,” said Mr. Martell. In order to encourage such discussions and to inform or remind the evaluator of the confidentiality policy, the recommendation forms which will soon be used at this University, probably starting June 1, 1974, will carry the statement: “The candidate does not have access to this reference at the UPCG Office. The author has the sole prerogative to discuss the reference, with the candidate.” �Different approaches evident as Mattina, Elfvin vie for judgeship Editor’s note: The recent death of Judge John O. Henderson has left the federal judgeship of the Second Circuit, Western New York section, vacant. Local Republican leaders have been considering several qualified member j* of the legal profession as possible nominees for the post. The final decision will be made by New York’s two U.S. Senators and the President Will act on this recom mendation. John T. Elfvin, United States Attorney for the Western District of New York, is considered the front-runner for appointment to the federal Judgeship vacated by the death of Judge John O. Henderson. Mr. Elfvin seems eager to obtain the post. In discussing the problems of the judiciary, Mr. Elfvin emphasized the centralized nature of the Federal system and the relatively small amount of congestion within the federal courts. Because of this lack of congestion, he feels court reform really isn’t a burning issue in the federal cour s. Mr. Elfvin contends the best form of sentencing would be a more “regimented” system than is presently in operation. He suggested breaking down a particular crime into stages, and attaching suggested sentences to each stage. Such a system would tend to mete out justice in a manner that was fair to all, Mr. Elfvin believes. under consideration for the open judgeship in the Western District of New York of the Federal Court. Mr. Mattina talks proudly of his past accomplishments, his present involvement in the judicial system, and his plan for reforming the process of post-trial sentencing. The federal judgeship is another story, involving a new set of laws and a different set of involvements, which Mr. Mattina was reluctant to discuss. He seems content to let his achievements and his reform efforts speak for themselves. Enforce the law In considering pre-sentence reports, Mr. Elfvin is extremely interested in obtaining an overall picture of the defendant; one that includes his community relationships and his past record. Mr. Elfvin would more harshly punish someone who had a “bad” community record than someone who did Sentencing reforms “I have concentrated my efforts in the area of sentencing, primarily because it is one of the most neglected fields in law enforcement,” Judge Mattina said. After the jury has reached a verdict, the judge is given roughly three weeks in which to determine a sentence. The decision is based on a report submitted by the Probation Department, which outlines the character of the convicted and makes recommendations which affect the next few years of his life. The sentence handed down by the judge is the end result of this report. The sentencing program instituted by Judge Mattina is designed, to bring people from the community, the civil service and the colleges into the process. The courses taught at Buffalo State and in College Z draw people from the local community; “If, for example, the man who is found guilty lives on Buffalo’s West Side, we will go out and find people from that community, his peers, to participate in drawing up a recommendation,” explained Judge Mattina. “This attempt has been so successful that where once we sought the permission of the defense counsels to use it, they now come to us and request that it be used in the deliberations for their client,” Mr. Mattina not. explained. Mr. Elfvin asserted the judiciary should not try to effect change in any legislation, but should merely enforce it. Any major legal change should come directly from the legislature, he said, indicating his desire to remain aloof from the legislative process. He views his role as an enforcer of the laws, and will not make any judgements as to the validity of those laws. As a judge, he would be forced to make judgements on the innocence or guilt of a man. Once that judgement is made, he feels a more regimented set of sentences would facilitate a fairer judicial process. The major purpose in sentencing a man is deference, to prevent others from committing similar transgressions, Mr. Elfvin said * * * • Eight years on the County Court bench, teaching experience at Buffalo State College and in College Z, a recent appointment as lecturer in the National College of the State Judiciary, and years of applied research in the all this field of judicial sentencing responsibility describes the career of Judge Joseph S. Mattina, currently - John Elfvin New judicial image This new approach to an old problem has caused considerable reaction in the legal world. Judge Mattina has been lecturing over summers at various conferences and universities on the merits of his approach. As a fellow in the National College of the State Judiciary, he has been Introducing it to other members of the legal profession in the state. Mr. Mattina has steadfastly avoided an image of the “traditional elitist judge” in favor of a more outgoing demeanor. Contrary to some of the more established preconceptions about the judicial profession, Mr. Mattina has tried to remain in close touch with the people of the area. While there are those that feel this compromises judicial impartiality, Judge Mattina maintains that contact with people is essential: “It is important to know what the people feel, I cannot remove myself from them entirely,” he explained. Judge Mattina is an active force for legal reform, confident of the influence that the judiciary can wield in insuring that proper reforms are passed. ‘Seconds table’ now under consideration The Faculty-Student Association (FSA) will meet tomorrow to consider authorizing Food Service to reinstitute the seconds table in its dormitory board contract operations.

Further evidence includes the Hawaiian Airlines program of reduced fares for senior citizens. This program was instituted in 1968 and grew by 32% between 1968 and 1971.

Success from the start In 1952 he made his initial television appearance on the BBC, and followed this during the next three years with tours of Europe and the rest of the world. His first tour of the U.S. occurred in 1955-56, close on the heels of his North American debut at the Stratford (Ontario) Festibal. This one-man phenomenon played to standing-room-only crowds in New York City, San Francisco, Chicago, Washington, and other large cities. Since then Marceau has been a regular visitor to the U.S. and Canada, appearing in the major cities at leading and, of course, theaters. colleges and universities Marceau’s art has become familiar to millions of Americans via television; since his first appearance here on the Show of Shows, he has appeared with Red Skelton, Joey Bishop, Rowcn and Martin, Flip Wilson, and more recently, Johnny Carson and Merv Griffin.

Streaking is a reflection of the increasingly pervasive inanity of capitalist (I know this word is an anathema to The UB Spectrum and many but far from all students) American society. Now that the economic screws are being tightened (read, U.S. imperialism and monopoly and with a not captialism is singing its swan song so graceful exit) competition among students is stiffer, course content is more rigorous, and delayed ■gratification is the order of the day. Consequently students resort to more and more outlandish ways to give their excitement and passion. Streaking is an alienated expression of the need to feel that one is more than a superflous commodity, that one is “really real.” Streaking should be recognized for what it is: the clearest and most pristine manifestation yet, on this campus, of bourgeois decadence.

Vets Club At a recent rally held in the Fillmore Room by the Coalition one of the speakers who spoke on cutbacks in financial aid was a member of the Vets Club, Alec Abrams. During his speech he touched on financial problems of veterans returning to school. On completion of the speech he took questions from the audience. Two of the questioners made the implication that vets were receiving too much money. This has brewed a lot of bitterness from our members so we would like to dispel a few myths. The latest war was not a popular one. After World War II there were bands playing and flags waving when “our boys” came home from the fighting overseas. The Vietnam era veteran knows no such hurrahs. There have been no homecoming parades down Main Street and no tumultous newsreel scenes of troopships landing with thousands upon thousands of men. In fact, despite the ovation given for some 600 POW’s last February, over the last decade the public has barely noticed six million ex-soldiers as they have returned from duty in a constant, though all but imperceptible trickle. The vet returned to a crashing silence if he was lucky. More likely, he got the finger pointed at him as a tool in a rotten political war that everybody hates. Men arrived home, invisible and anonymous, often on a night flight from Vietnam. Always, they seemed to disappear before their existence could permeate the public consciousness. This is no accident. The country that wants so badly to forget the war, forgets its warriors as well. Very often, people in this country who aren’t actually involved in veteran’s affairs or who haven’t spoken with a vet about his benefits carry the misconception that vets are “living in the lap of’ luxury” and that they “have it made.” Actually, returning WW II vets who desired to continue their education did “have it made.” The post-World War II G.I. Bill paid the vet seventy-five dollars a month for subsistence, plus all tuition, books and fees at any public or private college or technical school. Tire vet had nine years in'which to use his maximum entitlement of 48 months. Today’s veteran, who served during or after the Vietnam War, receives a flat monthly allowance of two hundred and twenty dollars and no tuition payment. He has eight years in which to use his maximum entitlement of thirty-six months. To point up the dramatic disparities one must remember - - - - - spirit de serieux into your lives. Why have I bothered with them. Dave the Rave Decadent streaking To the Editor It saddens me to see a multitude of students gather and anxiously await the event of a streaking (a meager one at that) when these same individuals allow the fate of the colleges, the grading system, and other issues crucial to this University go unchallenged. Perhaps all the students of this University should take a few moments and re-evaluate priorities or else be prepared to settle for the decadence into which we are plunging. An Individual Who Is Not Willing To Settle inflation. The $75 a month living expense given to the WW II vet amounted to 35.4 per cent of monthly earnings for the average American worker in 1948 and when translated into 1973 terms was roughly equivalent to the $220 monthly stipend available to Vietnam veterans for all educational and living expenses. In an article published in the Buffalo Evening News entitled “U.S. dawdles on Aid for Vets’ Education,” David S. Broder writes, “Of all those victimized by the Nixon administration’s preoccupation with self-preservation and the Democratic Congress’ dawdling do-nothingness, the case of the Vietnam veterans may well be the most outrageous.” In fact, a smaller portion of the federal tax dollar is being spent on veterans’ benefits and services today than ten years ago despite the addition of six million veterans. It’s not our fault that at the time we were serving that war asn’t popular. We’re really sorry that it wasn’t magnificent and glorious and that God wasn’t on our side. Nobody is asking for parades, or medals, or welcomes to American Legion bingo games, or to get rich. We only want a fair shake. On our financial aid forms we must state the money we receive from the G.I. Bill. This is considered into our resources when it comes time ■ for the school to make financial awards and in the computation for eligibility for loans. It’s very disheartening for a man who has spent a number of years in the service to find out that his G.I. benefits can acutally limit or be duplicated by other financial avenues available to the general student population. We served for wages which were below the poverty set by the Department of Labor. (Now, of course, without the draft, the wages are quite high, to induce volunteers. But getting “volunteers” was easy then. You simply drafted them.) Every once in awhile we’re questioned, “Why’d you have to go in? I’m 18 and I’m not going.” For any man who was draft age in the middle and late sixties the question is ridiculous. Apparently many have forgotten or were too young to understand the situation. During the big Vietnam build-up everybody and his brother was being scooped up if they didn’t first join up, attend overflowing colleges, flee the country or go to jail. Things are much different now. We don’t really expect 18 year olds to understand and we don’t really care if they do. We just wish that they’d keep their fucking mouths shut on things they don’t understand. — Streak to nowhere To the Editor womb in which to hide from the social and political forces of the outside world.

Refering to Mr. Jacobson’s letter objecting to ads offered by the Military makes wild assumptions about the philosophy of the Armed Forces. He asserts “sole purpose” of the Military is to train all its members to “destroy human life.” When it comes to combat situations there is a need to know, self-defense for survival. The value of human life is precious and destroying it is senseless. In basic training, the knowledge to kill is acquired, but not the primary function. The soldier is sent then to advanced training, not solely in combat arms but, other areas. As medics (killers?) or various maintenance areas (killers?) and other non-combative jobs. Mr. Jacobson has the same potential to kill as any man. But to label persons of the military blanketly as destroyers of human life is a slap in the face for those who served. I am one angry vet who gets mad at all the shit military he may think again. Medics and doctors went to villages to help the people, not destroy them. Other men supported and built orphanages for disadvantaged children. Other men such as myself taught classes for young children in Catholic orphanages. Are these acts of destruction in a war-torn country? To brand all who serve or served as destroyers of human life is nonsense. There are meny vets on this campus, who have varied opinions and experiences. Yet I am sure that if you went to any one of them and called him a destroyer of human life, he’d ask you in astonishment, “What the hell are you talking about?” So, when you’re talking of trained destroyers of human life you are talking to me and all the vets. And a lot of us get fed up and angry at your misconceptions of us and the military. Give the people who read your ads at least the capacity of being mature enough to decide for themselves to people like Mr. Jacobson. We Vets did respond to them. Military or any other ad you run. - dealt out by our duty under much controversy during Vietnam, but we are human also. If this jerk ever saw some actions of the units in Vietnam set up by the In the March 6 issue of The Spectrum Howard , Chubinsky criticized Marc Jacobson for objecting to military advertising in The Spectrum. Mr. Chubinsky claimed that the U.S. military, in this case the Reserve Officers Training Corps (ROTC), has the “right to make their views known without discrimination or censorship.” And he calls for a continued “policy of printing ads for various controversial organizations.” I believe that most people are familiar with the “views” of the U.S. military, most exemplified by their tremendous destruction of life and property in Vietnam. The U.S. military’s ROTC program trains officers to help plan and order this destruction. Four years ago, this school had an Air Force ROTC program. How many of the officers trained here helped in the killing of people in Vietnam? How many from these ROTC programs helped in bombing Vietnam with anti-personal bombs, napalm, poisonous gases and chemicals, defoliants, or bombs disguised as children’s toys, set to go off when touched? And this isn’t an isolated example. Here in the U.S., the military has been used to gas, arrest, beat, and shoot anti-war demonstrators, civil rights organizers, and labor and trade union organizations, in their struggle for peace, equal rights, and a decent life. In other countries, the U.S. military has supported one reactionary government or movement after another, to suppress the basic democratic rights of the people there. In the early 1950’s, the U.S. military supported the repressive government in South Korea, against Regarding the letter to The Spectrum March 4, from Arthur Lalonde: Scholastic Housing Company does not in fact discriminate against married students. At present, the Corporation owns one building, 252 Cresent, which is run as a co-op, open to students regardless of division, sex, or martial status. Although the Cresent project is considered a success, the Board of Directors realizes this lifestyle may not appeal to all students and is currently searching for other smaller units, which would be , closer to campus. As the Corporation grows, students will have more facilities to choose from, time at present being the greatest factor. Eileen Schleelein Scholastic Housing Co. Inc. A voice from the past the democratic aspirations of the Korean people; in 1955 they supported the repressive regime in Laos; in 1961 they supported right-wing Cuban exiles in their attack on Cuba; in 1965 U.S, Marines went into the Dominican Republic to suppress a popular movement; from 1960 to 1973 the U.S. military inflicted tremendous damage in Indochina; and in September 1973, the U.S. military gave support to the Chilean fascists who plunged that country into a bloodbath. No, Mr. Chubinsky, a military organization with this kind of history has no right to advertise for the business of murder. When the right to live is violated, then the violators must be stopped. And this is done by denying them the opportunity to popularize their organization. Four years ago, students on this campus not only believed the military had no right to express its views, but believed they didn’t have the right to even be here. After referendums, countless demonstrations and confrontations, Air Force ROTC was forced off campus. After similar activities all over the country, a tremendous public anti-war sentiment was felt, which many of us feel helped bring an end to the war. The issue here is not the “right of free speech,” but in safeguarding the right to live, and for this reason the U.S. military has no right to advertise its business, in this paper or elsewhere. And I wonder, Mr. Chubinsky, if the ultra-right within the U.S. military successfully destroy the democratic rights of the American people, if you will still take satisfaction in having defended their “right” to advertise their business.

No discrimination Paul Krehbiel “The Administration has proved that it is utterly incapable of clearing out the corruption which has completely eroded it and re-establishing the confidence and faith of the people in the morality and honesty of their government employees. The investigations which have been conducted to date . . . have only scratched the surface. For every case which is exposed, there are ten which are successfully covered up and even then this Administration will go down in history as the ‘scandal-a-day Administration.’ “It is typical of the moral standards of the Administration that when they are caught red-handed with pay-off money in their bank accounts the best defense they can be given is that they won the money in a poker game, a crap game, or by hitting the daily double. “A new class of royalty has been created in the United States and its princes of privileges and payoffs included the racketeers who get concessions on their income tax cases, the insiders who get favorite treatment on government contracts, the influence peddlers with keys to the White House, the government employee who uses his position to feather his nest. The great tragedy, however, is not that corruption exists but that it is defended and condoned by the President and other high Administration officials. We have had corruption defended by those in high places. If they won’t recognize or admit that corruption exists, how can we expect them to clean it up?” Senator Richard Nixon in his denunciation of President Truman’s administration at the Hotel Statler in Boston, November 13, 1951 - �Ma Bell in Bu A TIPPY'S With country’s highest rates it pays oft to keep informed Due to another important episode of the streaking phenomena, a speech by George Levine of the American Telephone Consumers Council in Haas Lounge on Monday, was lightly attended. Buffalo has the distinction of having the highest flat rate service charge in the country, and Mr. Levine stressed the importance in educating the University community to A.T.&T. and its operations in this area. Flat rate telephone service in Buffalo costs $11.52, compared to $4.80 in San Francisco and $5.95 in Washington, D.C. Buffalo also has the only watchdog system in New York State: both city and county governments actively attend hearings on rate increases for the New York Telephone Company. The United Auto Workers supports the local American Telephone Consumers Council, which has represented the consumer in a number of suits against the rate hikes. Students arc the hardest hit by the continuing rate increases, Mr. Levine said, yet they’re apathetic when it comes to organizing any action against the unwarranted exploitation of the consumer by the New York Telephone Company. New York Telephone is owned by the A.T.&T. Corporation, which also owns 100% of Western Electric, the makers of communications equipment. Though the communications industry is a virtual monopoly in America, said Mr. Levine, he believes it can be fought successfully. There are many laws on the MEXICAN FOODS books for regulating public utilities which are seldom used or acknowledged by an apathetic or uninformed public. Flat rate in danger Costs of telephone service to dorm residents can be greatly reduced by substituting switchboards for the regular flatc rate phone service, Mr. Levine suggested. Costs for the switchboard service would be minimal: besides the price of installing an old telephone switchboard, phones serviced by the switchboard would only be charged $1.35 a month-. Along with the decreased phone rates students would also benefit from the jobs made available to students needed to operate the switchboard. After his speech, Mr. Levine asked for volunteers to join committees and organize efforts against the .proposed telephone rate hikes. The abolition of a flat monthly rate for service has also been proposed, to be replaced by a cost per minute rate which would reap even greater profits for the Phone Company. A handful of students signed for committees. “What is needed on this campus,” Mr. Levine declared, “is a watchdog committee to research possibilities for decreased rates for students and provide a viable pressure group for the students.” 60 Oz.

Following last year’s NCAA playoffs, the NCAA Baseball Rules Committee voted to adopt the use of the designated hitter in intercollegiate contests. In doing so, the NCAA has followed in the footsteps of a league that has seen declining attendance dictate a change that the American League thought would revive fan interest. The method behind this madness is difficult to comprehend. Since the NCAA is the governing body of national collegiate athletics, and not a big business, it cannot claim declining attendance as a motivation. After all, the NCAA has long refused to initiate the use of a shooting clock in basketball, the lack of same occasionally inspiring slowdown techniques, 20-17 scores, and sleeping spectators as a result. Any claim that this change would give more players the chance to participate is not justified. With the addition of the designated hitter, pinch hitters and relief pitchers who would normally enter a game are not used. They are replaced by a man whose function is that of a three or four-time pinch-hitter. Just how much the designated hitter considers himself to be in the game is another unanswered question. “I don’t like it,” one Bull told this columnist during a game last fall. “You sit around and talk for a few innings, go up and hit, and then sit around again. It’s not like you’re really in the game The American League’s argument that the* resulting offensive improvement will attract more fans is not a valid one. The use of the designated hitter eliminates much of the strategy that formerly captivated fans and managers alike. A manager would often have to make a difficult decision in the late innings of a game involving pinch-hitting for his hurler. Now, the DH “designates” the strategy, or, in the above case, the lack of strategy. Thus the term “designated baseball.” Perhaps the implementers of the DH will decide, in several years, that the designated hitter has not been effective. A four-man batting order and a separate “platoon” for defense could be utilized, thus destroying the sport of baseball as we know it. Foul lines could be eliminated, along with fences, to add offense to the game. Should these changes occur, the gans should go on strike.

Dr. Kettcr explained that Learning Center personnel were eligible for tenure, but that EOC instructional staff were not eligible because of a New York State law and not a University decision. The Learning Center is a regular part of the University while the EOC is a post-high school, pre-University program which gives disadvantaged students college prep and trade prep courses.

Dr. Ketter also wrote that he was “deeply puzzled and troubled by the sharp shift of position that seems to be reflected in your [Mr. Eve’s] public statements and in your letter of February 27th.” Stating that only a few short months ago, Mr. Eve had expressed strong support of the University’s minority program in urging that the Educational Opportunity Center at Buffalo be placed under UB’s jurisdiction, Dr. Ketter wrote that he was “at a loss” to account for Mr. Eve’s “about face.” Dr. Ketter then stated that while he has been “repiinded that this is 1974 and that the University makes a convenient target during an election year,” he refuses to believe that Mr. Eve would “use the affirmative action program for such a purpose.” Mr. Eve was unavailable for comment.

In addition, basic self-help skills are stressed: how to prepare a simple meal or make a bed. These children are also given “travel community and training exposure” in which they are taught skills such as use of public transportation, public pay phones, ordering in a restaurant, etc. The Cantalician Center is staffed by certified, or certifiable, individuals who are also capable of working with the trainable mentally retarded.

Along these lines, I am pleased that the Panic Theater exists, that they are reviving musical comedy on the campus (in the past they have performed Kismet, The Pajama Game, Guys and Dolls, etc.). I quite agree with them that the Theater Department is not always the place to go for fun-filled entertainment. Nor, actually, should it be. Please stop Now to my dirty work. I warn you, stop reading. This is unpleasant for me. Stop reading. I’ve met some of the people I’ll be criticizing. They are good people, I am not villainous. Bear that in mind. I find myself embarrassed to sit and watch people my own age behave idiotically. I do not like to laugh at physical imperfection. But when people who really shouldn’t are encouraged to tap dance in short ugly skirts and begin to sing (poorly) and act (abominably) and to otherwise parody a genre that, if anything at all, has set glamour and comedy, style and grace as its paragons; I am driven to Theater space Two; I think the Theater Department is being a little fussy in refusing these people permission to use the Harriman Library This is an elitism that I do not oppose, but considering that Harriman provides the only theater on this campus, I think that a certain generosity can be expected or even demanded. Three: Although the Fillmore Room is a step up from the Goodyear cafeteria, where this group has previously performed, it is both physically untenable and acoustically dismal for this kind of performance. I can do nothing but rail (and have done nothing but rail for the last five years) against a University that uses Chemistry lecture halls for its film programs and Millard Fillmore rooms for its theater productions, all the time promising a mythically beautiful Theater Complex on that Great New Campus in the Sky. I’ve heard some dirty rumors about that Theater Complex, by the way, which I’ve been asked to keep under my invisible hat. Technically, for all its multiple stages, the won’t be practical Complex But, shh, I promised. because Remember, though, you heard it here first. Four: Student Association should be ashamed of itself. The Panic Theater should be allotted a sizable budget. Musicals are expensive to produce, but they attract an audience. Performance rights and musical orchestrations are expensive, these costs are upped if admission is charged. The Panic Theater is a potentially profitable organization; I see no reason why these people should be forced to pay for their sets and costumes stage. .... wailing. The ursine howler is the red howling monkey of Northern South America, so * named because it looks like a bear and howls like a coyote. A singularly repulsive ape, it performs its stunts in the privacy of its own moist rain forest. It docs what it must. It doesn’t advertise its failings. The males and females live and breed, happily I assume, without calling for an audience. 1 do not offer my downstairs neighbor an opinion of the rock music that he composes and plays at 4 a.m. I call him or the police when in his joyousness he grows too lpu(L and vibrates my floor; but I have, never let critical aesthetics come between Unlike the rollicking monkey in his South American jungle and the noisome guitarist on the floor below, the Panic Theater has chosen to do what it wants to do in public. It has invited an audience and a critic. My role as a critic is not to insult the innocent. But the innocent (witness the monkey and my neighbor) do not invite audiences to their activities. People happening on them are intruders of a sort. As a critic, I am an invited and very intentional guest. Anything Goes is a musical comedy by Cole Porter. It was written in the thirties with a book by Howard Lindtay and Russell Crouse, Guy Bolton and P.G. Wodehouse. It was revived Off-Broadway in 1960 (before the nostalgia riot) and the producers, intelligently recognizing the dated quality of their material (this was before being dated was a thing to be sought ardently), threw out a good half of the original songs, replacing them with Cole Porter’s greatest hits. This revival then, as it stands, contains such standards as “Night and Day,” “You’re the Top,” “Blow Gabriel, Blow,” “Anything Goes,” “I Get a Kick Out of You,” and “Friendship.” Any cast that can sing should be able to make Anything Goes a tuneful hit. The croaking chorus gathered for Anything Goes couldn’t get through “Three Blind Mice” in a round, and so they’re thrown back on their own very limited devices. The band that has been assembled to back them up is brassy and loud (as it should, indeed be) but very little else. Obviously, what’s left is some stylish and stylized acting. But no, this merry bunch is not really an acting troupe. What they have left is enthusiasm and zest. And zest, let me tell you, is not fun for everyone. The plot is typical P.G. Wodehouse. Public Enemy Number Thirteen, Moonfact Martin, is on board a ship going from New York to London. He is insulted that he is only number thirteen and so he and his moll, Bonnie, intend to hit the top. Also on board is Hope Harcourt (the ingenue) who is unhappily engaged to Sir Evelyn Oakleigh, but who loves Billy Crocker. Billy, as luck would have it, is on board ship in the guise of Snake-eyes Johnson, Public Enemy Number one. Ex-evangelist and night club singer Reno Sweeny is on deck with her back-up vocal group of Angels. And so on. Everyone gets married in the end. The cast i would like to heave large bouldert at Robin Dicker who plays the ingenue, Hope Harcourt. Her facial vocabulary consists of a limitless series of disgusted smirks. When she is supposed to be happy, she manages to pout. When she is not acting, she stands about looking lumpish and nauseous. Well, it )s a ship. Dean Casakos is slightly better. He can’t sing either, but‘he manages somehow to escape looking embarrassed to be on stage. He plays Hope’s boyfriend. They are quite a pair. No. I will not go on in this manner. Sloppy one-liners are as easy to spot as bad actors. Two members of the cast deserve brief, uninspired praise. They are Marty Markowitz who is funny as Moonface Martin, Public Enemy Number Thirteen and Keith Parsky who plays the silly-ass Englishman, Evelyn Oakleigh. As a matter of act, Keith Parsky is quite funny, properly stylized for this kind of comedy. Wednesday,, 13 March and if he can play down a tendency to be overbearing, he may actually be an actor. At Reno Sweeny, the chanteute, Peggy Span it leggy and loud and finally very, very boring. Do you readen understand that tbete people embarrassed me? That I felt numbed and deadened and shocked by the cheapness, the vulgarity, the lack of talent in the proceedings? I know they worked hard. 1 really do. I congratulate Shelley Stangler, the choreographer, for teaching an entire cast to dance or tap-dance in six weeks. I appreciate her choreography, some of which could have been rather striking if it hadn’t been so ineptly executed. I even congratuate (much lest heartily) the director, Judy Weinberg, if only because the managed to hold such a large crowd together. A social reading Musical comedy, like it or not, is a glorification of a certain kind of American ideal, the ideals of beauty, blondenets, homogeneity; clean, open-faced men, and leggy, vampy ladies. Busby Berkely, when choosing a chorus line, wouldn’t stand for individually shaped women. The Rockettes are all exactly the same height. Their smiles are probably the same width. Musicals like Anything Goes called for certain types of glamour girls and handsome leading men. Only the comics are allowed to have oddly shaped bodies. These musicals, on stage and in the movies, reinforce the notion of specific, standardized beauty. In the fifties and sixties, a new breed of musical came about. Leu sassy and sophisticated to be sure, but more tolerant of what people are physically like. The big chorus line vanished. Different types of people were shown. Fiddler on the Roof say, does not call for glamour. Musicals like Westiide Story, Porgy and Bess and Fiorello paved a way for a leu Wasp-ish cast to the musical comedy entourage. Finally, blacks, Jews, and people with distinctive racial features, were allowed on the stage as people, not stylish and stylized things. Of course as the musicals grow more, shall I say, naturalistic, new problems enter. The idea of the song in a format that is not extremely stylized is un-natural, perhaps foolish. And to when a University group, especially an amateur group, gets together to perform a thirties’ musical like Anything Goes, one of two things happen. Either the play itself comet off as extremely stupid or trite, or the performers make fools of themselves. Clearly this is no university to cast about in for samples of WASP physical perfection. I feel sorry for the actors and actresses in Panic Theater’s Anything Goes who end up so shamefully humiliated by an American ideal that should have died years ago. 1974 Hie Spectrum Page seventeen . . �-««■ ‘mL.- ■M TO: *«.«** **• /■. stem tA/ Mhfli r FROM: The Pondes Administration The Truth RE: March 8,1974 We respectfully wish to inform you of what weVe been doing this past year. 24) Establishment of Bicycle Security Area.

Instead, I stumbled away with a good dose of refreshing rock on. The reason: it might have sumthing to do with their initial lack of they weren’t pent up like most nihilistic impulse pooh-pooh rawkers, they were just plain old musical laxatives. These pretty little things possess an innocent kind of borderline sleazoid musical texture, something very rarely experienced in this dreary age of sheer noize blitz and orb melt. This they accomplish with a slick sense of changes, progressions, musical believability and overall no lush orchestrations here, just pure simplicity point-of-orgasm rock music. And in an era of continuous Drano consumption and musical suicide, all this comes on like a strong wiff of only city dwellers can understand gaggy ghetto garbage this kind of beauty. It’s nice to hear sum non-tinsel, non-fluff slash toons once in awhile, it keeps you honest. Listening to Queen is like mugging a Santa Claus on pure the comer at Xmas time just for kicks another of those irksome rectal - - — - Strawbs Hero and Heroine (A&M) The Strawbs’ latest rendering, Hero and Heroine is a A song cycle about the trials and despairs of a young man in England and his ultimate disillusionment, followed closely by his death. Sounds sort of familiar, doesn’t it? A neo-Peyton Place melodrama molded especially for ears that thrill to eloquent soap opera sensibilities. Any concept album invites this sort of wrath upon itself, because rock V roll is essentially illiterate; a conceptual approach presupposes a certain degree of lyrical adaptation, maturity and integration. It is precisely on this important factor that Hero and Heroine flounders and almost sinks under the weight of its own , concept album. pretentiousness. But before persuing this costly fault, it should be emphasized that Hero and Heroine does have its share of musical rewards. Dave Cousins, guiding light and spiritual advisor of the Strawbs, has scribed some pleasing melodies, which at their best charge spritely-moving ballads with fine dynamic development. The mellotron and synthesizer work by John Hawken is tasteful and fuses a romantic generational warble which gets it underway. Other than this it's pretty unemotional stonefaced. Gorgon rock. Side two has a little more flair and vivacity to it. As a metaphoric experience, it comes on like a giant mirror ball catching the moonlight as it sways nonchalantly from a beautful lady’s earlobe. Sparkle, sparkle, sparkle. “Liar” not to be confused with “Liar Liar” by the is the opening tune and begins a one-sided Castaways 'mini-concept piece. The mini-concept being a look into the different aspects of religious metal St. Chris rock ’n roll. It has a great cow-bell moment in the middle and a few adrenalin-pushing geetar breaks. In a flash of tabernacle tongue, “Jesus’.’ resurrects one mo’ time and saunters around the sound waves. While not exactly Lord Buckley’s da Nazz, this look into faith healing and the glory of da Lawd will have to do until somebody does the definitive holy rock ’n roller. (Black Sabbath and the Mormon Tabernacle Choir doing great who knows, maybe moments from the book of Genesis someday.) Again a whole lot of searing geetar zounds, truncated rhythm patterns and general all-round confusion. “Seven Seas of Rhye” would’ve been better had it been named “Seven Seas of Bourbon,” or better, “Seven Seas of Seven ’n Seven,” but that doesn’t really matter because it’s only a minute or so long. Would you like to be Queen for a day? Sure, why the hell not? -Joe Fernbacher — maliciousness. Better yet, it could be equated to the sense of sensual thrill experienced when you shove a lit firecracker down, a cat’s throat pop-blam gut splay in the air tee hee child joy yup yup. The Queen sound is a not-so-subtle, punch-in-the-crotch combination of Pink Fairy punknacity and Zepploid Chevy plant assembly-line riffing. Blam, blam, blam; real constant. A lot of twisting wrist action by guitarist Brian May: wrist action in the classic metallic sense like Sir Lord Baltimore or Stray, but nowhere near as primitively crunge encrusted. Queen alift got doze rock ’n roll hemorrhoids like dat fop Bowie and that zip Reed not yet, anyway. I like them mainly because they continuously remind me of the times when I stick my finger down my throat to initiate a purging puke-asm: a puke high being the only liberating experience left. As far as the vinyl goes, it’s occasionally great and often an exercise in rock ’n roll pugilism. “Great King Rat’* is a look into heavy metai George Segal consciousness on one hand, and on the other side of the schizoid it’s definitely all swords and sorcery musical Conan from start to finish. This cut has that compelling, yet inexplicable, sense of impending doom that makes all — - — - - * — edge to the sound. “Heroine’s Theme” contains this facet with its haunting, astral quality. Throughout the album, the music presents itself with a sensuous synthesis that dances with a fine understatement of magical madness. The Strawbs do, however, demonstrate on “Just Love,” an affinity with the raunchier aspects of pop. This cut illustrates a rocking anarchism that explodes beneath maniacal drumming and bass playing. Dave Lambert, lead guitarist, throttles the tune, along with a delightfully gutsy vocal and ferocious guitar chording. A sample of the lyrics underlines their endearing simplicity; It’s just love Don't try to understand it You can’t put your arms around it You might never love again It’s just love Don’t try to comprehend it If you’ve money, you’d best spend it You might never love again. - — — — the threading together of isolated song fragments with intelligence and cohesion appears to be beyond their artistic ken. The lyrical imagery employed is at best, shaky and at worst, ridiculously lame. Silver suns and midnight suns shining abound, and I was wondering when “Paper Sun” by Traffic would somehow find its way into the act. such as a and cliche-ridden lyrical vehicles suicidal wrist-slashing as the final statement of the hero’s are mere attempts at sensationalism, total alienation rather than probing beyond the superficial to the root causes of the hero’s doomed and tormented state. Additional problems accrue from the forced word-phrasing, which sacrifices insight and subtlety for rhyming sequences and a theme which has been beaten into the ground from overuse. Stale — — But if rock ‘n’ roll depended just on lyrical content, it would be in dire straits. So if you can suspend a discerning ear on the lyrics and drift away in the celestial musical matrix, this could be your album. -C.P. Farkas Yet even with these plus factors working for them.

Watching a concert from the very front row of Clark Gym is like watching a movie from the very front row it’s gotta appear larger than life.

In four months, I could play anywhere in Chicago. He started getting recording offers, met Kris Kristofferson, made his first LP and was off and running. One of the reasons for Prine’s popularity is his ability to write humorous songs. We were talking about his new album, and he said that lately he’s been moving in a new direction (structually, at papers Try and find Jesus on your own From least): working more on melodies, on where I was sitting, it seemed like some of ballads, trying to get away from the audience had come to do just that. verse-chorus and narratives.

By the way, be like. Naturally, I quickly found out that when John started singing “illegal Smile,” he was just a regular guy, somewhat a particularly audible devotee started scraggly-looking and soft-spoken, and yelling back and singing harmony in a totally unaffected. The history of his career is the kind of hoarse scream. After awhile, it got pretty story you would like to hear about every obnoxious. John handled it with ease, though.

Happy and Artie are extremely tight musically. It’s a shame that they seem to be having as much trouble getting some good breaks as Prine. A lot of people have been calling John Prine “the new Bob Dylan.” That phrase is a contradiction in itself, because any genius the ighty leete IS HERE! is necessarily unique unto itself. I asked him, rather rhetorically, if he had heard the comparison. He said, “Yeah, sometimes it gets to. be a drag,” and I don’t doubt it. Nevertheless, as I looked at the faces around me, the expressions I saw were very much like those at the Dylan/Band concert in Toronto. Which only means this: Prine is not the new Dylan, but he does have the same kind of magnetism and power over an audience.

Despite occasional charges of reverse racial discrimination and a current Supreme Court trial on the issue and despite the fact that minority students admitted after separate consideration have lower “numbers” than white students accepted admissions officials insist that the minority students they admit to the Law School and Medical School are as qualified as accepted whites to graduate and become professionals. “If we relied on nothing more than college grade-point averages and LSAT scores in our minority admissions procedures, we would have few, if any, minority students in our school,” explained William Greiner, associate Provost of the State University of Buffalo Law School. “We would be excluding from law school and from the legal profession minority students who are qualified to be good law students and good lawyers,” Dr. Greiner said. Therefore, it is necessary “to resort to other ways of measuring accurately” the ability of minority students “to perform in a predominantly white, high-quality law school,” he believes. — — — - Considered separately The 3000 students who apply to Buffalo Law School every year are screened in three categories. Some students are accepted or rejected on the basis of their “numbers” in the first grade-point averages and law board scores go-through, while most are referred to a second category in which other criteria besides numbers are scrutinized. Students who indicate on their application that they are a minority group member are considered as a separate group “on a set of variables related to undergraduate academic performance,” explained Dannye Holley, chairman of the Law School’s Minority Admissions Committee. Of the 322 students admitted to Buffalo Law School in September 1973, 38 were minority students. This compares to the 12 minority students admitted in 1969; 35 in 1971; and 24 in 1972. “We cannot determine the minority students qualified for law school solely by the criteria of grade-point average and LSAT scores,” Dr. Holley explained. He noted that the minority applicant’s undergraduate academic record is a “much fairer indication” than LSAT scores, and conceded that standardized tests like the LSAT are “culturally biased” against minorities. As a result, minority admissions officials strongly consider “the undergraduate’s academic progress from the first and second years to the third and fourth years, letters of recommendation, job — — ‘Don’t have the numbers' “We feel that the minority students we admit are qualified to graduate law school and go on to make a meaningful contribution to the bar,” declared Dr. Holley. Minority applicants “don’t have the pure numbers to get admitted through the numbers program,” conceded Dr. Greiner, but they might be admitted through the second category in which additional factors are considered. The Law School would like to weigh personal factors more heavily for all its applicants, but must use numbers in the first go-through as an “administrative expedient” because “we can’t look in detail at 3000 applicants,” Dr. Greiner said. The Law School’s separate consideration of minority students, Dr. Holley stressed, “is not a quota system.” He explained: “Quota implies either a minimum or a limit on the number of blacks, Chicanos, and Native Americans that can be admitted to a separate program. Our system is based upon trying to obtain qualified applicants, minority say, 35 and non-minority. We set an informal number as the number of slots that could be expected to be filled by minority students. This doesn’t mean the Minority Admissions Committee must bring forward 35 names. It hasn’t worked that way. There may be a year without X number of minority applicants accepted,” Dr. Holley — — explained. Less whites being taken Those with numbers over a 3.0 and 625 LSAT score are usually admitted in the first round, while those with less than a 2.5 and 550 LSAT score are automatically rejected. Those in between are considered again in the second category for alternative qualifications; the only difference between that category and the separate minority category, Dr. Holley emphasized, was that the Minority Admissions Committee is able to give more attention to the smaller number of minority applicants. “Because we have an affirmative action program for minority students, we probably end up taking less non-minority students than we ordinarily would,” admitted Dr. Holley. The Supreme Court is now hearing the case of Marco DeFunis, who sued the University of Washington Law School, which rejected him, claiming that his marks and law boards were higher than 37 minority applicants who were admitted in 1971, the year he was rejected. Mr. DeFunis is charging that he is the victim of reverse racial discrimination [see story, page 6). Since the $ State University of Buffalo Law School separately considers minority applicants, and since many minority students admitted have lower “numbers” than whites who are accepted, couldn’t a white student who was rejected here make the same claim of reverse discrimination? “The charge of reverse racial discrimination is only valid if the white student making the charge has some way of showing that the accepted minority students were less qualified than he was,” argued Dr, Holley. “The minority students we accept are not less qualified to finish law school than the non-minority students we accept.” Conceding that many applicants rejected by the Law School are also qualified to do the work and graduate, Dr. Holley asked: “What do you do when choosing between X number of qualified people, when you only have enough spaces for one-tenth of them? We admit some by the numbers, but we also weigh other factors.” If a rejected white student sued Buffalo Law School for its minority admissions policy, Dr. Holley believes: “Yes, we could defend it. We think we have a reasonable basis for admitting the minority students we accept. The problem is justifying it why a committee member rated a letter of recommendation high or low cannot be made objective,” Dr. Holley said. “The law requires reasonability. In terms of discretionary standards, the law asks: Do you have a reasonable set of procedures and criteria? I believe we do.” The University of Washington Law School, being sued by Mr. DeFunis, “did not attempt to quantify other academic factors for minority students,” Dr. Holley commented, unlike Buffalo. “We don’t say, we’ll admit minority students with lower numbers due to race. When we admit minority students with lower numbers, we require additional academic justification. We ask, what other factors lead us to believe that he will succeed in law school?” — Big difference on LSAT A Supreme Court decision against Washington Law School, said Dr. Holley, would probably have an impact on law school admissions procedures across the country, even if the Washington circumstances were not applicable to each school’s local situation. What if Buffalo Law School were ordered or pressured into changing its minority admissions procedure? “If we dropped minority admissions as a special category, minorities could get in under the Special Admissions category,” Dr. Holley said, the only difference between the two being that minorities presently.get more scrutiny as a smaller, separate group. Dr. Holley conceded that there is a “substantial difference” between minority and non-minority LSAT scores with admitted whites averaging over 600 but minority students accepted scoring in the 430-450 range but feels “there is cultural bias involved” in standardized tests such as the LSAT. However, there is no substantial difference between the groups in grade-point average, he maintained, with whites averaging about 3.0 and minority students about 2.86. Also, the minority student with an LSAT score of SSO-plus will have no trouble in law school, whereas the same is not true of whites. The dropout rate is “negligible” for both groups. — — The question that arises, and which will certainly be —continued on page 7— �truetale ofstreaking through the night A As much as I am embarrassed to take off my shoes in the company of people, I decided to participate in the craze that is currently sweeping our nation’s campuses: streaking, or the Oh! Calcutta syndrome. I certainly had no reason to streak; unlike other things at this University, there was no peer pressure involved. As a matter of fact, no one even bothered to offer me money or dope or a free drink at Happy Hour. The nerve of those indignant dogs! Everyone wants something for nothing. So 1 gave them nothing for nothing. But back to the story. While the world watched from the Goodyear fourth floor lounge, their noses pressed against the window so hard that they could touch the tips of their nostils with their tongue, fellow cretin Paul McS. and 1 decided to pull a streak right under their very noses (which, by this time, became' permanent fixtures on the window.) 1 am sure if 1 spent another tenth of a second thinking about it, I would have my mother and her words that have remained with me until this day; “Always dress warmly or you’ll send me to an early grave!” Ah, but what the hell. By this time, Paul was giggling furiously; the sight of his own body made him hysterical. He had a bigger laugh when I took the towel from my waist. Our rendezvous with perversity had arrived! remembered Howling obscenely, we streaked past our fourth floor prey with the greatest of ease. They were caught to much by surprise that they were only able to identify us from our waist down. Throwing on our ceremonial robes, we returned to a hero’s welcome and cries of “You’re exactly as I pictured you!" Well, I guess for the most part, the mystery is over. 8-by-10 glossies will be available on request. Don’t come all at once, O.K.? -Sparky Alzamora Bare-ass streakers zip by crowds at Buff State by Richard Lippman Spectrum Staff Writer What topic is on everybody’s lips today? Watergate? The energy crisis? The Middle East? Guess again. It’s a phenomenon occuring all over the country called “streaking.” In case you haven’t heard by now, streaking is the making of blitzkrieg. runs through public r'ses- «i*Tfre nude. appearing both announced and unannounced across the country, dashing madly from one point to another, much to the amusement of onlookers. Streaking, basically a warm weather occurance, has found its way to Buffalo despite near-freezing temperatures. At Buffalo State College last Friday, a large, publicized streak was held at high noon. Crowds began to gather in Scajaquada lounge, the starting point of the festivities, and the soon-to-be streakers stripped down to underwear or swim suits. At five minutes to twelve, the streakers went to the windows of the lounge, turned around, and mooned the anxious crowd waiting outdoors. Five minutes later, 45 streakers stripped off the rest of their clothes, danced around in a circle and yelled, “We don’t fuck around.” The streakers then headed for the doors as the crowd parted to let them through. Outside, they were greeted by a turnout of three to four thousand people. Females, too The streakers (39 males, 6 females) raced up to the Student Union and back to the starting point again. Clad only in sneakers, they braved 40-degree temperatures during their eight-minute run [see photos]. When it was over, they all slipped back into their clothes and congratulated each other. All of them said they enjoyed it and one streaker remarked he “enjoyed watching f<ople getting turned on like that.” One of the females who streaked yelled out ‘•Women Power,” and said later that she “did it for fun. Females might as well show their bodies too,” she remarked.

He is expected to answer questions at tomorrow’s Student Association meeting, however. According to a spokesman from the Colleges, the meeting was scheduled “to give Dr. Ketter a chance to publicly not do something,” and in his view, Dr. Ketter, by his absence, did just that. Fifty or 60 people gathered in Haas Lounge for the 4 p.m. Thursday meeting, only to be told about a half-hour later that the University President would not appear. A delegation from the coalition’s last rally met with Dr. Ketter on February 14, at which time he agreed to a meeting. They attempted to work out thf details with Richard Siggelkow, vice-president for Student Affairs, who explained that three criteria would have to be met before any I r a MARCH 12-13 meeting could take place. The first dealt with time, and 4 p.m. Thursday was agreed upon after the coalition was told that Dr. Ketter’s tight schedule precluded any other time. The second requirement was that a list of written questions had to be submitted in advance; the coalition agreed to this, also. SA the proper channel But the Administration’s third demand was the direct involvement of Student Association, since the administration’s view is that SA is the proper channel through which student demands should be voiced. Dr. Siggelkow explained. SA’s involvement was to take the form of a chairperson from student government, but the coalition, which insisted on naming its own chairperson, refused this demand. Following these developments, SA President Jon Dandes wrote to Dr. Ketter and suggested that he only meet with the coalition through the proper channel, rrrr^“o°„“ questions Coalition discusses alternatives Those who attended the meeting discussed alternative actions which might be taken. Coalition members expressed the belief that Dr. Ketter would avoid any action until after the spring recess in the hope that the ensuing time lapse would weaken their movement. The coalition was formed to defend the Colleges after the Faculty-Senate passed the Reichert Prospectus, but has broadened its student base and now includes demands that range beyond the Colleges to financial cutbacks in many areas on campus. Many coalition members called for mass strikes or demonstrations at Thursday’s meeting, with some references to the 1970 disorders on this campus. One militant spokesman suggested a mass demonstration outside Hayes Hall, but Black Student Union President Larry Williams expressed the hope that by working within the system, they might be able to accomplish their 'goals with the aid of those {sympathetic to their cause, such as Buffalo Assemblyman Arthur Eve. Broad range of demands The coalition’s demands include the re-opening of the student dental clinic which will be closed this spring, expanded day care facilities to help the 100 community people who have been on a day care waiting list for three years, and restoration of full tuition waivers, which have been cut back by Albany from $15 million to $8 million. The coalition is also demanding that an increased budget be made available to the Colleges to purchase released time for faculty members from their regular departments and to hire coordinators. The Reichert Prospectus, the passage of which launched the coalition, demands substantial faculty involvement in the Colleges before they can become chartered, even though no additional funds are made available to the Colleges to pay faulty. The coalition also questions why the Balck Studies Program and the Educational Opportunity Program for disadvantaged students have both been without directors for some time. They further demand that students be given some input into the University’s allocation of funds. ~==UUAB== A COMEay of MURaERS CHARLES CHAPLIN Acupuncture: get the point? collection of empirical rules of thumb.

It was with visions of George Plimpton and a new book to be called Paper Pincushion that 1 took this assignment to be an acupuncute demonstration volunteer and write up (or write down, no one’s ever explained the distinction) the experience. Acupuncture specialist C.Y. Ting made a return appearance at Clark Hall Thursday night (he had visited this Univesrity last year) with a presentation and demonstration of the Chinese medical art of acupuncture. As everyone now knows, acupuncture is the art of sticking pins in patients at specific locations to cure a variety of ills. Dr. Ting wasn’t there to cure anyone, to the disappointment of several people in wheelchairs and on crutches. The real tragedy of the interest in acupuncture is that many have come to regard it as the latest substitute for faith healing, an attitude especially the believers. that hurts many people In most states in this country, acupuncture therapy is allowed only if the patient is referred to an acupuncturist by a doctor or if the medical profession has given up entriely. So Dr. Ting had to turn away several people interstcd in treatment. Dr. Ting’s presentation involved nothing of what we in the West call “Science.” To those at all familiar with the history of science, ■ it was reminiscent of the period before the scientific revolution of the late Renaissance and onward when much scientific theory, particularly in medicine, involved explaining something by making an analogy with something else. To Western minds, then, it doesn’t mean much to say that the heart is related to the tongue, or to talk about fire, earth, metal, water and wood (like Empedociles’ four “elements,” earth, air, fire and water). If acupuncture is not a scientifically coherent theory, though, Dr. Ting’s presentation make it clear that it has a highly developed and articulated - pp count. Acupuncture is an old art. Archeologists have found a stone acupuncture needle estimate to be 5,000 years old. Until recently, the needles were made of gold or silver but they had the unfortunate habit of breaking and leaving the patient with half a needle inside. Modern technology has improved the state of the art by providing stainless steel needles. All of this was fascinating enough, but what people came to see was Dr. Ting sticking needles into his victims make that volunteers. One of the most pointed lessons of the demonstration was the near-universal fear of needles. Numerous spectators asked me how I could volunteer to be stuck. The temptation was strong to come up with atrocious puns like: “1 was on pins and needles.” Going up to the platform, I came up with an insult so apt it must have been thought of before: “He’s the type of guy who’d do acupuncture with barbed needles.” — Getting needled I sat in the chair with every eye in the place on me and set my arm on the pillow. Dr. Ting opened up an antiseptic foil packet and drew out a needle a thin, flexible thing about three inches long, half-covered by some cloth to provide a sure gnp. Feeling around on my hand. Dr. Ting selected the point of penetration. He held the needle between his thumb and forefinger. I thought of tetanus shots. I hate tetanus shots. This was not at all like a tetanus shot. I felt a mild pinprick as the needle broke the skin. Wiggling the needle deftly, Dr. Ting pushed it deeper and deeper into my hand without causing the slightest sensation. He held my hand up in triumph showing a hand with a needle embedded an inch deep into it and offering it up, unconscious of the rest of the body attached, to the spectators and cameras. Then he drew it out. No, there was no pain, no blood. No, 1 don’t feel any different. And no, the reddish mark on my left hand is a birthmark, not the spot where the needle went in.

With the recent conversion of Great Britain and Japan to metrics, the U.S. is the , only industrialized nation remaining on the traditional according to system based Saxon folklore on the length of the king’s foot. The metric system was created in 1790 when the French National Academy ordered the Academy of Sciences to establish “an invariable standard for all the measures and all the weights.” The Academy derived all the measures of length, weight and volume from the same single measurement, a pre-determined portion (Tf the earth’s circumference. Since it was derived from a single unit, the system is coherent. That is, the measures are all related to each other. The U.S. system, however, is not coherent. We divide inches by 12 to get feet and multiply pounds by 16 to get ounces, instead of dividing or multiplying all measurements by 10. — - Urging approval At a recent conference on metrics at the University of Southern Mississippi, a resolution was passed by the 450 educators, businessmen, and publisher of metric materials from 39 states and five foreign countries, urging Congress to approve the under now legislation consideration calling for a 10 year gradual voluntary changeover to the metric system. “The change is going on, and it is going to accelerate regardless of legislation,” commented Louis Barbrow of the Bureau of Standards. inevitable change to The metrics is reflected in the area industries’ plans.

Ms. Murray, Supervisor of Mathematics for Buffalo public schools, said workshops were already set up to instruct teachers in metrics, so they in turn may teach it to their pupils. “They have to learn it before they can start teaching it,” she said. Some children in the early grades are already learning the new system. Students in grades 7 through 12 have been learning metrics through their science courses for some time, she reported. However, as of yet, the State University at Buffalo has no course on metrics in the math department and no plans for instituting one in the near future. Administrative problems Those who failed to receive their SSI checks have come close to starving, Mr,. Williams indicated. Requests for food have been made by the United Council of Churches and there has been “wonderful participation,” Mr. Williams said. Donations consist mainly of bread and vegetable products, although canned meats are occasionally contributed. Vincent Vizzi, field representative of Social Security, asked the small gathering to “look at SSI as a package.” This program is not affiliated with Social Security, but rather is made out of general tax revenues. “The impact of SSI has put a greater burden on us” Mr. Vizzi explained, adding that the present situation was “due to conversion problems.” Those who did not Music recitals Joanne Castellani will offer a classical guitar recital Saturday, March 16, at 8:00 pm in Baird Recital Hall at the State University of New York at Buffalo.

Mr. Vizzi admitted that his office was having ‘administrative problems” and that all incorrect information transferred to Social Security was being “straigthened out.” In order to certify everyone in the SSI program, some cursory investigation has to be done. Mr. Vizzi said that a Federal investigative unit would prosecute all federal fraud perpetrated by those taking undue advantage of thee SSI program. “The SSI is not a give-away program, although its requirements are not as stringent as the county program,” Mr. Vizzi emphasized. However, SSI recipients must keep records of some of their assets. The Federal basic grant (nationwide) is $130 a month per individual although a couple may receive $190. Each state has been invited to supplement this basic grant but only twelve states have done so. Screening process Allen O’Donnell, representing the American Red Cross, said than his participation in the SSI affair was “a bit different.” The Health Education and Welfare (HEW) Department asked the Red Cross to contact those on welfare last November and inform them of the change to SSI. With 12,000 people to contact, the job had to be done by telephone, and as of February 15, 5600 people had received personal phone calls. According to Mr. O’Donnell, the Red Cross prepared a screening process and found that 40% of those reached had qualified forr SSI. All of the churches in Erie County were notified of the basic outline of the program and will assist the Red Cross in their efforts.. “With your cooperation, the people will get the aid they surely need,” said Mr. O’Donnell. * Requirements An additional benefit is state supplementation, whereby an amount of $76.85 will be added to the basic grant of $130. A person is eligible for this supplementation only if he or she lives in his or her own household. Mr. Vizzi then went over the basic requirements a -disabled, aged or blind person must meet to receive SSI benefits. The Social Security office must receive a medical report to establish an individual’s disability. One must be disabled for longer than 12 months, and should not be able to work during that time. Alcoholics and drug addicts may by listed as disabled only if they are enrolled in a rehabilitation program. If an individual has reached the age of 65, he or she may apply for SSI benefits. Blind persons are also guaranteed benefits even if ‘A chance’ Janet Stroman, general case work consultant for the Department of Social Services, announced that as of last January, there were Free Standing Services Departments for “keeping, planning, enlarging and working with the aged, disabled and blind in regards to services.” “In regard to conversion, no one isblaming anyone,” Ms. Stroman said. Ms. Stroman then elaborated on the purpose of her organization; “We know that we are dealing with the aged and disabled, a group of persons finding many living difficulties. We have to depend on persons to inform us . . . all these people should have a chance.” The general philosophy of the SSI program, she said, was “good. We’re trying to move all the people we could in the SSI picture.” lowest prices in town Come to our drycleaning happening at the U.B.

Every male must still register with his local draft board within 30 days of his 18th birthday or face prosecution. The lottery system for determining the draft status of all new registrants is still in effect, and the entire draft bureacracy continues to operate. It only awaits the issuance of induction orders from Congress before it begins calling up new draftees. The vast majority of young men in America are not aware of the present status of the Selective Service draft. The rules and which were always confusing regulations are even worse now that public awareness of their existence has diminished. The local draft counseling center, a way of life for the college student of the late 1960’s seems to have become a thing of the past. However, the mandatory obligation of registering for military service and the distinct possibility that the draft may be revived does not seem to have the same effect on today’s draft-age youth as it did on their immediate predecessors. The Military and Draft Counseling Center of Buffalo is still open for business, and is doing its utmost to inform local youth of the possible complications that would result from failing to fulfill their registration obligations. “We don’t handle the same volume of cases as we did several years ago, but we do average about two or three cases a week,” said Georg Iggers, one of the Center’s many counselors. “The nature of our cases has also changed. Rather than handling primarily draft cases, we deal now in aiding — — enlistees who are dissatisfied with the serivce, soldiers who have gove AWOL, and draft evaders both here and in Canada who still face prosecution.” Comprehensive program The' Center’s counselors try to present every man that comes to them with a comprehensive evaluation of his individual situation and suggest all the available options to him. The Center’s organizers feel that this is one of theri strongest drawing points. They emphasis their comprehensive programs, contrastinf it to the “other centers which specialize in obtaining medical or conscientious objector status only, overlooking bonafide alternatives open to a person and thus, indrectly pushing him toward a final decision.” The,center, which is located at 72 North Parade Avenue and is open Thursday evenings, operates on a very informal basis. Unlike the situation several years ago, when draft counseling followed a set routine and was highly organized so that it could handle the large number of people which filtered through, the present operation consists of a small group of advisors and perhaps one or two young men presenting their individual cases to the panel. The counselors explains the various courses of action to the young man and extensively describe the advantages and drawbacks of each course of action. All available information is given to the young man; the final decision, of course, is left up to him. Once he decides what he wants to do, the counselors will work with him on an individual level to “provide him with an overall understanding of the processes of administration and law that apply to his situation, and offer ongoing continuous detailed instruction in how to best carry out his decision.” IRC petitions Petitions for Inter-Residence Council (IRC) officers will be available beginning today at the IRC office in Goodyear and at the Lehman Desk in the Governors Complex. Petitions are avilable for: President; Executive Vice-President for IRC Businesses, Inc.; Vice-President for Activities Planning; and Treasurer. All dorm students fee paying and non-fee paying are eligible to run for office. — — The Center has developed close ties with psychiatrists in the Buffalo area, and refers young men with legal complications or emotional disorders to them. This keeps both legal and medical channels open to them, and enables them to receive professional advice before reaching any decision. They also provide an opportunity to have individual files reviewed for errors, which might then be used as a basis for legal defense. One of the more sensitive problems is that of veterans with less-than-honorable and dishonorable discharges. Such discharges can hurt a man for the rest of life by excluding him from certain jobs and blemishing his record permanently. The Center informs these men on how to apply for a review of their discharges before a Review Board, and instructs them on applying for an Exemplary Certificate enabling him to find “gainful employment despite the grade of his discharge.” The most immediate problems of the Center are those of returning exiles from Canada who are arrested at the border many attorneys and crossings. “One Sunday night not too long ago, we received a call from a young girl whose boyfriend was arrested at the Peace Bridge when he tried to re-enter the country for a brief visit,” said Mr. Iggers. “He has been living in exile in Toronto for several years, and was sure that the authorities had forgotten about him.” Border surveillance is so extensive that returning exiles have a very good chance of being picked up at the border, a situation both complicated and confusing. In this particular case, the draft counselors were able to put the young man in contact with a lawyer and arrange for bail. The quick thinking of his girlfriend allowed for an adequate legal defense and avoided unnecessary complications,” Mr. Iggers explained.

Page five �haw school is suedfor reverse discrimination school admissions policy is a violation of the 14th Amendment’s guarantee of equal protection under the law, by discriminating In 1970, Marco DeFunis graduated from the University of Washington and applied to the law school there. He was rejected. In 1971 he applied again and was rejected again. His law board scores were higher than those of 37 minority students blacks, Indians, Chicanes who did get in. Charging reverse racial discrimination, Mr. DeFunis sued the law school. His lawsuit, which is now being heard by the U.S. Supreme Court, may have far-reaching repercussions on affirmative action and minority hiring and admissions programs across the country. Of the 150 students admitted to the University of Washington Law School in Mr. DeFunis’ year, the 44 minority students accepted were considered in a separate group, rated against other minority students but not against the large bulk of white applicants. A Washington trial court ruled for Mr. DeFunis and he was admitted to the law school, but the Washington Supreme Court overturned that ruling by upholding the law school’s admissions policy. Mr. DeFunis remained in school (and will graduate in June) after a stay by Justice William O. Douglas of the Supreme Court, which has already heard the opening arguments in the case. Whereas an unusual lawsuit may attract five or six briefs from interested national organizations, over 30 friend-of-the-court briefs have already been filed in the DeFunis case, an indication of the intense national interest in the outcome. The Supreme Court’s decision could affect minority hiring and admissions programs in every segment of American industry and education, and could upset the “affirmative action” concept mandated by the 1964 Civil Rights Act. The case involves a complex set of intellectual arguments ranging from the validity of separate admissions criteria for minority students to the accuracy of LSAT scores in forecasting a successful legal career. Mr. DeFunis maintains that the law against him as a white by assigning a larger number of places to non-whites than they would be entitled to according to mathematical criteria such as board scores. - — More than just grades Defending the law school’s admissions policy in Washington Supreme Court, Washington Attorney General Slade Gorton said the school had a social responsibility to recruit a diverse student body, and to increase the tiny number of non-white lawyers in the state and country by “advancing the pluralistic society.” Mr. DeFunis was a marginal candidate, Washington Law School argued; 29 white applicants with better scores than he were also rejected, while 38 whites with lower scores were admitted. Thus personal factors, background and recommendations were not just grades and test scores also considered, the law school argued. In upholding the admissions policy, highest court cited a Constitutional responsibility “to prevent the perpetuation of past discrimination and to undo the effects of past segregation.” Only 12 of the 3,812 Washington Law School graduates from 1902 to 1969 were black, Mr. Gorton said. Another issue is the right of a university to shape its own student body, by weighing such factors as geographical location, cultural background and work experience in addition to standardized test scores. On behalf of Harvard University, former Watergate special prosecutor Archibald Cox argued against “substituting an iron rule of law for the discretion of academic authorities to make a conscious selection of qualified students from the greatest variety of cultural, social and economic - - backgrounds.” Lawyers for Mr. DeFunis, on the other RE-DISCOVER flfTlERICfl B.NP.IHE.

Because the minority applicants were considered as a separate admitted two group, “the University Mr. DeFunis argued one,” not classes, lawyer. When institutions undertake affirmative action programs, which either provide for special admissions consideration for minority students or agressive recruitment of minority faculty, increased acceptances minority for group members must often come at the expense of whites. In 1971, there were 1,600 applicants for 150 places at Washington Law School. Thus, if the Supreme Court rules that considering minority applicants as a separate group is discriminatory, it could severely set back minority recruitment and admission efforts at schools and companies across the ... country No quota Additionally, Washington Law School has argued that its separate admissions policy does not constitute a racial quota, which is illegal unless ordered by a court to Aindo past discrimination. They claim that a large number of discretionary factors such as besides standardized test scores employment record and personal are carefully recommendations considered when deciding whether to accept or reject a student. When Supreme Court Justice Lewis F. Powell asked Mr. DeFunis’ lawyer whether “formal grades — — are the only thing that can be considered,” he answered, “no.” This is a key point, for if Washington Law School can establish that its admissions policy is not based solely on race or test scores, but considers a wide range of discretionary factors, then any charge of clear-cut reverse racial discrimination would be difficult to prove. On the other hand, the law school will have to legally justify considering minority applicants as a separate group, and probably establish that those minority students admitted were accepted because they were deemed as qualified as white applicants on the basis of alternative criteria, and not simply to fulfill a racial “quota.” It is doubtful that the Supreme Court will approve'any type of racial quota system or a separate set of standards for minority applicants. It is also unlikely that the high court will mandate any “iron rule” for standardizing admissions by removing the university’s academic discretion to consider varied socio-economic factors in selecting its student body. Since it is not that clear-cut in the DeFunis case that quotas and not discretion were applied, the Court may sidestep the whole issue and wait for a more blatant case of undisputed quotas before making a definitive ruling. Any ruling, substantive or otherwise, is likely to hinge on whether the standards required of the separate group of minority applicants are merely alternative or objectively lower. This too is a murky realm, since many have argued that standardized tests like the LSAT are oriented to the white middle-class and are therefore culturally biased against minority group members. Whatever the outcome of the case of Marco DeFunis, the issue of minority admissions is likely to remain controversial for a long time to come.

SA president-elect Grading is major concern by Amy Dunkin Campus Editor Now that the campaign fervor has subsided, the newly-elected Student Association (SA) officers are wasting no time in getting down to business. The most important consideration, according to SA President-elect Frank Jackalone, is to insure that the plus-minus grading option is not given final approval by President Robert Ketter. The proposal, allowing instructors the option to grade their students by adding a plus or minus to the usual ABCDF letter grade, was passed by the Faculty-Senate last Tuesday. “The action was done hastily with a minimum of input from all sides. It caught everyone off guard,” Mr. Jackalone asserted. He will therefore urge Dr. Ketter to reject the proposal and send it back to the Faculty-Senate for further review. As a possible alternative to the proposal, Mr. Jackalone suggested Both Mr. Jackalone and Mr. Huram regard the maintaining the present grading system with Colleges as another vital academic issue. Mr. Jackalone mandatory written evaluations in upper level courses emphasized that SA could help maintain the “spirit of of a student’s major. He conceded that it might be the individual Colleges” by maximizing its influence workable if the plus-minus option could be left in the on the Colleges Chartering Committee. “We have hands of the individual students, not the faculty started an effort to talk to members ofacademic clubs members. and faculty who can influence the Chartering Committee in understanding the student perspective,” Frank Shampoo / hand, have argued that many minority applicants were admitted with scores below the cut-off point for whites. While the social goals of Washington Law School may be sound, they contend, they should not be achieved at the expense of Mr. DeFunis. Because Constitutional rights apply to the individual, they said, it is a violation of Mr. DeFunis’ personal rights to exclude him from attending law school because of the Sneaky trick Jackalone Mr. Jackalone said. He added that SA is seeking Elaborating further, the new Academic Affair* qualified students, hopefully College members, to sit Coordinator Mark Humm laid the proposal was on the Chartering Committee. “snuck by us” and “doesn’t deserve to hold credibility.” He will prompt the Faculty-Senate to Vital quest Referring to the Colleges’ quest for funds to hire rescind the motion until it is “looked into further.” Once this is accomplished, he plans to work with the faculty, Mr. Humm pointed out that the Student-Faculty Coordinating Committee in making Faculty-Senate does not have the power to suitable recommendations on grading to the appropriate money. Therefore, SA and the Faculty-Senate, hopefully based on a thorough Faculty-Senate “will have to work together in investigation of the entire grading issue. —continued on page 10 �Minorities weighed... argued in the DeFunis case as well, is whether “numbers” are a valid criteria for accepting or rejecting law school applicants. “We understand there is some criticism of our practice of using the standard measures of college grade-point and LSAT scores for the bulk of our admissions, while we use different criteria and procedures for the minority program,” Dr. Greiner wrote to the University’s Executive vice-president Albert Somit last month. “We do not believe” that grade-point average and LSAT scores “are fully adequate bases for law school ■ admissions,” Dr. Greiner wrote, urging the use of “other criteria, such as age, job experience, and formal education beyond the baccalaureate degree.” If the Law School relied solely on marks and board scores, he continued, “we would exclude qualified minority and other candidates whose performance in law school, and potential contribution to the profession is, in our opinion, at least as good as that of students who are admitted ‘by the numbers’.” Both the minority admissions and special admissions categories which look at non-quantifiable factors are experimental, Dr. Holley said. “What we’re asking is: Are the alternative criteria we’re using for minority students valuable as predictive indicators of success in law school?” The experimental data has not been fully analyzed, since minority students have only been considered as a separate group in 1972 and 1973, but minority students admitted in the class of ’72 “did significantly better than previous minority students,” noted Dr. Greiner. The Minority Admissions Committee consists of four faculty (one of whom is a minority group member) and four minority students. This committee developed the admissions criteria for minority students, although all admissions policies must be approved by the entire Law faculty. The separate admissions process “evolved from a decision by the Law faculty as a whole that there was a need for affirmative action,” Dr. Greiner said. —continued from « 1— peg* 'A than four years ago. There has been a remarkable increase in the pool of qualified blacks, and I hope that pool will continue to increase,” Dr. Musselman added. Out of the 135 students accepted to the State University of Buffalo Medical School in September 1973, 40 were minority students, and 24 of those were blacks. Additionally, 38 were women. Dr. Musselman noted, observing that the Medical School’s enrollment of 28% women was one of the highest in the country. Are the minority students accepted by the Medical School as qualified as the whites it accepts? “The grade-point average of whites accepted is higher than blacks,” Dr. Musselman said. “The minority students we do accept have lower numbers than the whites admitted but they are qualified to finish no question about it not a good, but medical school. They have an excellent an excellent change to graduate and become good doctors,” he commented, noting the extremely low dropout rate among minorities. Possible lawsuit It has been reported that a white female who was rejected by Buffalo Medical School is now suing on the grounds of reverse discrimination, as in the DeFunis case. “We don’t know whether we are being sued,” said Dr. Musselman. “An investigator from Albany notified us of an ‘action’ against the State Education Department six to eight weeks ago. But we’ve never received a subpoena, nor any other official notification that we were being sued. We and the person is charging reverse know who it is but it isn’t valid,” Dr. Musselman discrimination concluded. “Systematic and widespread discrimination has denied blacks and members of other racial minorities equal education opportunities,” Dr. Greiner wrote Hayes Hall last month. “The effects of this discrimination, coupled with cultural and social class bias in standard academic measuring devices, make it unlikely that racial minorities will be admitted to law schools (and hence to the legal profession) unless affirmative action is undertaken to account for these factors in our admission program,” Dr. Greiner added. Less than 3% of the lawyers in the United States are black, he noted; “before affirmative action only 4,000 Or programs, that figure was less than 1% 5,000 black lawyers in the country.” Affirmative action for hiring Law faculty has been slow, he said, because “with less than 3% blacks and 6% women with law degrees, it is harder than hell to find qualified people with — — - - — Pool increasing Grades and MCAT scores are used for the first screening, Dr. Musselman explained. “Accepting — regularity.” History of discrimination Because of affirmative action programs, however, “it should be much less of a problem in the next few years,” Dr. Greiner predicted, “In 15 years, if affirmative action programs continue, there will be no need for a special minority admissions program in law. The colleges will fill up with highly qualified blacks. Even now, because of integration, more blacks are used to standardized testing and will eventually become more successful on standardized tests,” Dr. Greiner continued. Poor whites also constitute a disadvantaged group. Dr. No Med School quota In the State University of Buffalo Medical School “minority students are processed with everyone else, and then reconsidered by a special committee,” explained M. Luther Musselman, chairman of the Medical Admissions Committee. “By and large, minority students do not have as good grades and MCAT scores as the rest of the applicants,” Dr. Musselman said. Therefore, the special committee which reconsiders minority applicants “must take into consideration” that these numbers are lower for minority students, he said. “There really isn’t a quota in the Medical School,” Dr. Musselman insisted. “Some minority students are accepted through the regular process.” Those that are not initially accepted but not automatically rejected are placed on “hold” for reconsideration by the minority admissions committee, he explained, “We re-process whites, too the but only if extra is, we take anothe; look at them evidence is submitted on their behalf later on, or if there’s some other compelling reason to reconsider,” Dr. Musselman explained. - — Minorities get ‘second look’ Taking a second look is “routine” for minority students, however, and they are scrutinized by “a special small committee which understands the problems of minority students,” said Dr. Musselman. This procedure has been used “ever since we started making an effort to recruit minority students about four or five years ago,” the Medical Admissions chairman recalled. At that time, “so few minority students applied that we actually only took an insignificant number. The we started recruiting.” The separate reconsideration of minority students is important, Dr. Musselman explained, because “a small group of people can judge them better. A big group often won’t see enough of them. But a small, specialized group can make better comparisons.” —Santos Greiner conceded, but “the educational disadvantages some whites have suffered do not appear to have been based on the systematic public and private discrimination rooted in the institution of slavery.” He continued: “For 300 years, blacks lived as slaves. They were discriminated against even after they were freed men. It is just 100 years Dannye Holley candidates by grades is not fair,” he admitted, “but with 5000 people to screen, we have to do it. We need some criteria to whittle down 5000 applicants to a manageable number.” But since “numbers don’t always apply to white or black students,” alternative criteria are used for minority students and others who are given a second look. “Sure we look at grades, in science, non-science courses and total grade-point average, and we look at MCAT’s. But we also look at the applicant’s college and what degree he received, summer jobs, work experience during the year, education beyond college, and what kind of person he is,” Dr, Musselman explained. On the first go-through it is mostly grades and board scores, he indicated, “largely yes/no/number categories, through which we must screen down 5,300 applicants to about 1500 to 2000. These are then hand-scanned in great detail,” looking at alternative factors such as letters of recommendation, until all but 700 are eliminated, he explained. Docs the Medical School’s special treatment of minority applicants constitute reverse racial discrimination? “It could be viewed that way,” Dr. Musselman conceded, “but I would regret stopping it. The way education is going, 1 hope that in 3, 4 or 5 years, this will not be necessary. It’s become much less necessary now since the Emancipation Proclamation, just 20 years since Brown v. the Board of Education. Duke Law School barred blacks as late as 1962. Law schools engaged in affirmative discrimination programs for years. Against that institutions have a background, public historical responsibility to achieve social mobility for blacks, Indians and certain other ethnic groups,” Dr. Greiner explained. Noting the “gross under-representation” of blacks in the legal profession, he observed; “We have enrolled in this Law School right now more blacks than in the history of the UB Law School combined.” Regardless of the Supreme Court ruling, despite various other legal and social challenges, the Law School and Medical School at this University are likely to continue their separate admissions considerations for minority students, denying that they constitute reverse discrimination because the minority students accepted are “as qualified” although perhaps not on the basis of raw as whites to graduate and become successful numbers professionals. If colleges and professional schools around the country continue on this affirmative action path then the optimistic barring any fatal legal setbacks predictions that separate minority admissions will no longer be needed may one day become reality. — — — - S .A.

While recognizing the many accomplishments of outgoing SA Jon Dandes' administration probably the most active and effective SA in we have often criticized Mr. Dandes' years "buddy-buddy" relationship with the Administration. This charge requires clarification. There is undoubtedly a positive side to enjoying good relations with the Administration.

The faculty feel students have no place in their private domain of academic plus/minus decree, student concerns are often totally ignored by the faculty and Administration. Like any bureaucracy, the Administration is motivated by politics. And since politics is a response to pressure, only a firm and vocal stance by SA can insure that student needs are given equal weight. The issue is whether students will have a say in their own education, or simply follow the dictates of a University bureaucracy motivated by pressure from others. When Mr. Dandes voiced the students' outrage when Dr. Gelbaum cancelled 16 College courses and called for his ouster. President Ketter quickly responded to that pressure by reinstating those courses. Good relations and vocal opposition when needed are not mutually exclusive. We hope SA President-elect Frank Jackalone can continue to nurture a good working relationship with Dr. Ketter and the Administration. But when as is student concerns are ignored happening now with the Colleges and we hope SA will plus/minus grading the challenge Administration aggressively with the full political weight of 14,000 undergraduates behind it. your decision to start a present system and now it is as if there was never any vote taken at all. 1 only hope the decision will not be finalized. policy-making. As a Democratic Congress must build a working relationship with a Republican President but aggressively challenge him like any other when necessary, students group pressure or be must exert political ignored. Cooperation, input on committees, and personal lobbying can achieve wide relationship results. But as with the Colleges and between SA and the Administration would, of course, benefit no one. But when decisions are made which completely ignore the concerns of students, then the SA President challenge and confront the must Administration. Overall good relations between students and Hayes Hall and a healthy mutual respect should make it that much easier to take a strong opposing stand when necessary. There is a time for diplomacy, a time for compromise, and a time to speak out. Diplomacy has its place: the Fac-Sen's approval of two students on the Presidential Tenure Board was largely the result of personal persuasion by Mr. Dandes. But after the Senate ignored students by chopping up the grading scale into plusses and minuses, the SA President should have issued a strong public denunciation and took actions to organize a strong student protest against the move. President Ketter operates in response to a broad range of pressures, as any college president must. Besides varying pressures from the faculty, staff and students as well Dr. Ketter must as directives from Albany - be sensitive to community opinion, since he must court the favor of local legislators to fight for this University at budget time. So while the Administration holds all the power on this campus, it exercises that power in response to political considerations. The 50/50 admissions policy was a response to community pressure; the current re-evaluation of the A-course load is a response to pressure from Albany.

A group of women in the Buffalo area have begun meeting to discuss the possibilities of unionizing legal secretaries. Concerned with guananteeing such basic benefits as wage increases, health insurance, life insurance, and retirement benefits, the group also address itself to the larger issues of Equal Pay for Equal Work, Day Care Centers, and passage of the Equal Rights Amendment. Although there is a strong current of discontent among legal clerical workers, it remains vague and poorly articulated. Individual workers are isolated. Unlike laborers on an assembly line, legal workers come in contact with only a few co-workers to hear each other’s grievances or positive ideas. Additionally, traditional notions of women’s role the helpful, silent support person who takes on work without complaining or getting adequately tend to re-enforce the status paid (or paid at all) quo. Women form the majority of clerical legal workers, and at some level they frequently think of their office relationships in the same terms as their family relationships. It is OK for them to be and to complain over-worked and underpaid would only spoil the smooth personal interactions of the office. To bring in a “stranger” i.e., a union to mitigate complaints is especially distasteful. To overcome these and other problems, the group needs to expand, to reach people who are interested or who could obvioucly gain from or contribute to the project.

The faulty logic which led to its passage is clearly visible in the statement of one of its major proponents. Dr. Segal asserts that plus/minus “will dimmsh the degree of distinction which can only lessen competition because the prize is smaller.” How ironic is the against the plus-minus proposal are well defined in both The Spectrum editorial and Dr. Allen’s remarks in Guest Opinion. It is not my intention to restate them here. 1 only wish to strongly urge Dr. Kettcr, in creation of even further distinctions. The arguments First of all I would like to apologize to the woman, that I must have error young lady thoroughly disconcerted the other day in the tunnel. I cornered at near full speed on the Harriman end only to find someone, 1 think it was a she, in front of me I moved sharp left and hit a puddle and almost wiped out some guy on the other side of the tunnel as traction disappeared and grave injury was narrowly averted on all sides.

Well, let us poke on inside the befuzzled depths of my head and see what happens. It being late in the evening, lord knows what we are going to find in there. ho!— to wander on Oh, seems as if I forgot about my getting drunk on a Sunday a while back. It was the third party of that weekend and I blew it, or drank it. Turns out to be a loser the next day, being left in a prone position with neither inclination nor capacity to move without certain drastic physical repercussions. I mean it is almost impossible to even eat for two days, much less the first day afterwards. All of which is not basically what it occurs to me to basically want to remember. It is just a trifle painful to recall those parts of it in fact. The fascinating parts of this particular experience involve the fact that not all of it is available to me. There are parts of it which are somewhat hazy, and parts of it which just aren’t available at all. There were a variety of people 1 knew at this party and 1 keep hearing about things I said or did that I don’t remember. Which is a little freaky for me, since 1 generally remember almost everything that happens in such situations. The most unsettling part of it is the fact that all things people say are nice. The difficulty being based on the stubborn insistence someplace in my head that there is a large substantial streak of meanness in me; that when necessary I can be as miserable and rotten as need be to get by in a mean and rotten world. The world docs seem to me to occasionally require a certain element of hostile aggressiveness to survive, and it is a source of some comfort to me that when necessary that capacity is there. I have, in point of fact, muttered and growled at people who seemed to me to be trying to take the bitchy piece away from me by referring to me as large, warm, and fuzzy-type objects such as golden retrievers and more — pandas. It is, however, difficult for me to account for the fact that I am never mean when I am drunk. I just get amiable, expansive and other generally sociable things. Does it not seem reasonable that if I were actually bitchy, it should show up when 1 am functioning without conscious controls? I get more and more nervous when I contemplate the possibility that it is fact, not there. Something about yet another way in which my survival capacity is not suited to the current world. And the odds of the world changing drastically seem awfully damned poor. So I guess 1 ’ll just have to be anxious about it. Monday, 11 March 1974 . The Spectrum . Page nine �inion President-elect Guest lobbying with the Administration to provide the necessary funds."Mr. Jackalone proposed that money in the Colleges “be temporarily geared toward hiring faculty” with the promise of later reimbursement from the Administration. He also will appeal to sympathetic faculty to volunteer their time in assisting the Colleges. The overall goal of the new SA administration is to reach out to the student body by providing an efficient and visible line of communication. “The more people involved in government, the less elitist it becomes,” said Mr. Humm. “We’re all students. We all have to go to classes. And we can get more done with more people working,” he added. by Walter Simpson Mr. Howard Chubinsky has expressed (The Spectrum letter dated March 6, 74) the view that free speech would be threatened if The Spectrum refused to carry advertisements from the United States like individuals and Armed Forces, that is, that advertisers organizations “should have the right to make their views known without discrimination or censorship.” I share Mr. Chubinsky’s concern over the future of free speech, yet I don’t think the matter is as simple as he presents it Consider: if a certain size advertisement costs $25 then the use of that space to convey a certain message is had necessarily on the basis of discrimination, i.c. whether or not a particular applicant has the ability to pay for that space. Now then, my point of view might be just as Public forums In the coming weeks, SA will hold open forums valid as that of the U.S. Armed Forces (perhaps I flatter myself), but I doing, according don't have $25 to spend to have it publicly aired. The Armed Forces for officers to explain what they are when what the happens And consider have gigantic advertising budgets. space becomes much more costly than a mere $25: the large corporations have ad budgets which allow them to continually flood the public with their self-interested and profit-motivated points of view. Individuals and orgnaizations bent on expressing a more public-minded message are unable to compete and are consequently less heard. Thus, the practice of advertising is based on discrimination. Discrimination based on wealth. Consider; many publications sink or swim on the basis of monies received for advertising space. Naturally, this dependency on the advertiser’s money gives these advertisers power over the publisher. While this may not yet be the case with The Spectum, it should be seen that such an arrangement makes it very easy for the advertisers to censor the publisher (or the editor), and not vice versa. It may become increasingly difficult for a publication to give expression to a point of view which is contrary to the interests of its advertisers if it is to survive. Thus, the practice of advertising contains its own dynamic of - — censorship. And consider; most advertisments are to one extent or another misleading. Certain images are usually presented which have little to do with the product being sold: thus soap is sold on the basis of being a good mother, toothpaste on the basis of sexual success, automobiles and electric can openers on the basis of the Good Life, and the United States ARmed Froces on the basis of being a real man. Such ploys are fundamentally lies and deceptions. Their end results are that language and speech become increasingly meaningless, and that our thought and action become increasingly manipulated. My point is that the issue of advertising and free speech is a complex one. In many ways it seems to me that the practice of advertising is itself contrary to freedom of speech. Advertisement, as 1 have known them, seem cither to involve their own forms of repressive discrimination and censorship of divergent points of view, or tend to by corrupting make the very purpose of free speech impossible language, and, hence, inhibiting any kind of speech or communication, and by reducing the spheres of free thought and action. These considerations apply to the advertisements put out by the United States Armed Forces just as they apply to the ads of the cigarette industry showing two lovers picnicking and happily smoking smokeless cigarettes. They also apply to the ads put out by corporations which profit through the production and sale (as well as use) of war materials, ads showing a darly little child pulling a cute red wagon through a warmly lit grassy field. And leaving aside for a moment the United States Armed Forces, I ask Mr. Chubinsky to suppose there was an organization which had almost unlimited resources, whose function was world-wide murder and repression, and whose ads might con the unwary and insecure into joining its ranks and carrying out its deadly program. Should The Spectrum sell this organization the space it desires to make its point? —continued from page 6— ... to Mr. Jackalone. In addition, he hopes the press will cooperate with SA in allowing the officers to print periodic progress reports. A newly-expanded public information office will handle research and staff an information booth in Norton Hall and the EUicott Complex. Besides distributing SA information sheets, the booth will be a focal point for suggestions. “If a lot of people are involved, it minimizes the burden on each person,” Mr. Jackalone said. Mr. Jackalone and Mr. Humm will also meet with members of departmental clubs to encourage them to strengthen their voices in policy decisions. Finally Mr. Jackalone discussed one of SA’s most immediate projects: converting the Rathskellar into a campus pub, with a bar, dance floor, and music. “A pub could be a meeting place for on-campus and commuter students, and a profitable operation for Food Service,” Mr. Jackalone said. , fthaIlflUMW VOL ■mu — lisbon bailey drug co. prescriptions, school supplies, health now & beauty aids 10% discount to all students with ID.

Dandes’ political career started when, while he was a sophomore, the Tae Kwon Do Karate Club was in trouble and Jon joined the Student Athletic Review Board in order to see that his club survived. “It was an imperial command,” Jon says. Later on, then-SA President Debbie Benson appointed him Board Chairman. Still later, Jon showed the University the strength of the voting power contained in Clark Hall. of himself physically. “Physical intimidation is part of this job,” he said. “I’ve been able to deal with things with a certain sense of objectivity. I’ve confronted people with the issues and they have been forced to discuss the issues and not the bullshit.” There were times during his administration when it became obvious that Jon was seriously frustrated by the Student Assembly, a group for which he has little respect, something he has been sharply criticized about. Mr. Dandes admits that he has virtually ignored the Assembly for months. “We work 15 or 16 hours a day, then they come to meetings every two weeks and want things done their way. They have no accountability, no pressure on them. Karate: phOosophy of leadership Ironically, for Mr. Dandes, his political evolution nearly resulted in the exclusion of karate from his life. “I’ve been able to work out by myself in the mornings, but I haven’t been able to work out as much as I’d like. 1 feel more comfortable in the gym and I’m looking forward to going back.” It appears the karate has provided Jon with a philosophy of leadership as well as the knowledge that he can take care Playing the game Mr. Dandes admits that his idealism has turned to skepticism during his term of office. He is hurt by criticism that he has been co-opted and come on like another administrator, not taking stands, and is quick to point out the many successes of his administration. “The papers say 1 didn’t take a stand on arming. But Security is not armed. They say I didn’t take a stand on the Colleges. We worked til two in the hi 9 > Dandes Drawing strength from karate by Bruce Engel Contributing Editor For an entire year these pages have described one side of a many-sided man. Jon Dandes’ political life has been watched like a hawk and documented for posterity. Jon’s other lives avid sports fan, black belt in karate, and excellent student headed for are less well medical school known. The question then arises: which is the real Jon? According to Mr. Dandes himself, it is the Black Belt. It seems that the precious piece of cloth represents eight years of hard work and a new outlook on life. “It’s made me realize the need for honesty, integrity and accountability,” said Jon during an interview in his office last week. “I expect to be held accountable for everything that this administration does, good or bad. And if I’m going to be responsible for $800,000 of summer sweat money, it’s going to be done my way.” The decor of the office says a - - lot about the man. Among the things on the walls and blackboard are Buffalo sports schedules, his black belt picture, as well as pictures of some of SA’s speakers, Humphrey Bogart and Errol Flynn in scenes from their pictures, J.J. Pontillio (Jon’s karate instructor) and a poster of Brando as the Godfather. Started on althletic board “J.J. is the Godfather,” Jon said. “You know the Godfather had his points. He was responsible,” Mr. Dandes added. 1 remember the first time I was in the SA President’s office last spring. Jon was sitting on the couch in front of his desk while J.J. lounged in the president’s chair with his feet on the ink blotter, looking for all the world like he owned the place: Jon credits his instructor as being the one person other than his parents who has been the largest influence in his life. “J.J. taught me that to know that you know what you know, and that you don’t know what you don’t know is true Announcing the OPENING OF THE flENT TYPEWRITERS (El«ctrlc « VAJRAYANA Restaurant .

If I have to wear a shirt and tie to be effective, then that’s what I’ll do. Students have never been in the ballgame before. If you’re going to play the game, you have to wear the uniform.” Jon was quick to praise an unsung hero as well as the University’s top executive. “Ninety-five percent of our success is due to (SA vice-president Dave) Saleh. I’ve been honored to work with this whole executive committee,” he said. “Robert Ketter has more integrity than anyone here. He says yes or no and sticks to it. He doesn’t play games,” Jon added. On a more personal level, Jon has seen little of his girlfriend or his family in the past year, but some things never change. “My mother still makes me put out the garbage,” Mr. Dandes asserted. Obviously, she sees yet another side of the SA President. The phone rings in the office for what seems like the thousandth time during the interview. Soon these calls will be answered by a new president, and this man and his style will fade from the scene.

And now with crisp, new price tags. At only $109.95, the SR-11 is priced so you can have one of your own. Yet, it delivers the computation power to handle a wide range of slide-rule functions. A single keystroke gives you square roots, squares, reciprocals, and multiplication and division by a constant or Pi. And using simple methods, you can quickly compute nth powers, nth roots, sines, cosines, tangents, arc sines, arc tangents, exponentials and logarithms. Without writing down interim results, you’ll be able to solve quadratic equations, the sum of products, the sum of quotients, the reciprocal of the sum of reciprocals, the square root of the sum of squares and more. But all this scientific capability doesn’t mean the SR11 is hard to operate. An easy-to-use algebraic keyboard lets you key problems as you’d write them on paper. Data may be entered in full floating decimal point, scientific notation, or any combination of the two. And the SR-ll’s bright, 8-digit display is clearly visible for hours of fatigue-free operation. A little more capability than you need? Then take a look at Texas Instruments SR-10. Except for the absence of a Constant capability and Pi Key, the SR-10 has the same basic features and capabilities as the SR-11. But it costs just $89.95. Both the SR-10 and SR-11 include AC adapter/ charger, vinyl carrying case, user’s manual and applications guide. And both carry TPs full year warranty against defects in parts and workmanship.

For example, “29 Years From Texas”: “Hot country biscuits in the morning time Hello Mr. Jackrabbit, Mr. Mesquite Tree!" I’m surprised he left out Mr. Green Jeans. What really bums me up is “Unborn Child.” This is the cut they’re trying to hit with on the charts. "Oh, unborn child, if you only knew Just what your momma is planning to do You’re still a clinging to the tree of life But soon you’ll be cut off before you get ripe” At this poing, the lyrics are only annoyingly naive. But later on, At this point, the lyrics are only annoyingly naive. But " - ***'' ' Seals and Crofts Unborn Child (Warner Bros.) Everyone knows the truth of the phrase “too much of good thing.” Being aware of the dangers of excess is essential to good music. knowing just how far to go Seals and Crofts seem to have lost that ability. In fact, if I had to sum up Unborn Child in a word, it would be overdone. One thing that most great artists have in common is a unique sound. When Seals and Crofts started out, they had just that. The double leads (before the Allman Brothers made it popular), the equal importance of mandolin and guitar, the sophisticated vocal harmonies delivered perfectly by two incredibly well-matched voices, the classical and English folk influences and the Ba’hai-influenced lyrics were some of the main components of their unique sound. By using the two instruments and two voices to their fullest extent, Seals and Crofts managed to come out with music that was subtle, beautiful and complex without the necessity of lavish arrangements. Oh, they used bass, drums and orchestration, but these things were kept in the background, under control, used mostly to accent the vocals and main jinstruments. Also, they stuck to acoustic mandolin and guitar. The lyrics made it all quaint. Starting with Down Home ,Dash started using electric mandolin. This enhanced their sound, because it was used tastefully. With each new album, more and more electricity was employed. Finally, on Summer Breeze, they acquired an electric lead guitarist in the form of their new producer, Louis Shelton. Even that album was still good, a - - Graham Nash Wild Tales (Atlantic) "Oh. no, momma, please let it be You ’ll never regret it.. . so please bear the ppain How in the hell do they know “Momma” will never regret it? And what do they know about bearing the pain, physical and mental;of childbirth? do they know about bearing the pain, physical and mental, of childbirth? I know they’re entitled to their own views, but I don’t have to like them. Contrary to what you must be thinking by now, I do see some redeeming features on Unborn Child. There are “Rachel,” “The Story of Her Love,” and three songs “Follow Me” that I really like. The lyrics are bearable, the arrangements are simple and basically acoustic, the music and the harmonies are beautiful, subtle, complex in short, it sounds like early Seals and Crofts, which in my opinion, is their best stuff. It is not Seals and Crofts’ present expanded musical outlook that I mind, but the fact that they arc losing their musical identity in the process (I have a theory that Louis Shelton may be somewhat responsible for this present state of affairs). Hopefully, they’ll come to their senses soom. But for the present, ironically, it seems that Seals and Crofts, like so many other artists, have only reached theheight of their popularity when their music has already Now, those added noises can all be classified as contemporary music sounds. They would fit in just as easily with, say, a Helen Reddy tune. Even more distrubing is that all this extra instrumentation makes no sense a majority of the time. “Dance by the Light of the Moon” is a prime example. This song starts out sounding like moderately lively S&C. OK so far. Then, a whooshing noise brings us into a total country sound, waltz time, replete with steel pedal, with the lyrical vocal harmony that hasbecome their trademark. Now get this. It goes into a frantically-paced fuzz tome double lead backed by maniacal bass and drums. Very heavy. The music in this last part is very good in fact, Louis Shelton seems to be an excellent lead player. I can understand you’re wanting to flex your musical muscles, Louie, but it just don’t belong there. What this song as a whole sounds like is a mish-mosh of Seals and Crofts, James Taylor, Steely Dan and who knows what else as being the “American Beatles," mainly because of their progressive and romantic appeal.. CSN&Y was a group ol bun minds (and voices! fused into one.

George Harrison was able to surpass, in my opinion, Mi I ennon and Mr. McCartney as a composer, arrange! and performer. How many, may I ask. knew this would happen? Similarly, how many knew that when C’SN&Y stopped performing together, Graham Nash would be the one to “Shine On Brightly”? David Crosby has become a boring self-ripoff. Neil Young has been going stale and Stills is confused and defeated. Ah, but Mr. Nash has now come out with his second solo Ip., Wild Tales and 1 must say it is the best album of its kind I have ever heard. a rock critic comes on like this “Best album I’ve ever heard.” God, how many times has he written an album up like that? Well, rest assured this IS the best. Nash wrote all ten songs and incorporated the help of Crosby (he’s good on harmonies and works well with Nash), Johnny Varbata (the “family’s” favorite drummer), Dave Mason, and Nash’s old flame Joni Mitchell. Wild Tales is a much peppier album than his first effort, Songs for Beginners. Graham is still writing political love songs; however, he is no longer lulling in his own sadness but is now giving advice. Wild Tales is an agressive album, both - — So tell me your company's hang reviewed. Hy the people That sit on tin shout. And you tellme your factory's been renewed.

The harmonies (Nash and Crosby) are vacuum-packed for freshness. The song makes me feel like just jumped into a cold pool on a hot day in the middle of the summer. “Another Sleep Song” sounds a bit like Feely’s “Tubular Bells.” Joni Mitchell, in the background, supplies her vocal talents in an interesting fashion. The number must go down as one of Nash’s most Nash | beautifully-written love songs. Wild Tales shows quite clearly Nash’s ability as an artist to convey his feelings and beliefs. His sensitive approach to the world around him makes him an earthy performer to listen to. Nash is honest in his approach to his music and never tries to take on more than he can handle. Wild Tales will make for a great spring album, -Sheldon fUUAB= NON TEACHING PROFESSIONAL STAFF "I 1 1 _ „ J a weekend in a ;-*«» March 12 -13 4rWj \\ (JT . /7 J i CTi Jf C la I I it It »\ Kamieniecki WOULD YOU bke to get away lot J '■ The Professional Development Committee of the Staff Senate has been asked to look into the outcome and effects of the classification system which was used to assign grades to NTPs.

Sounds a lot like you know what. “Grave Concern,” which introduces the second side, is another agressive tune featuring some electric country guitar riffs by Nash. Barbata is excellent on drums, as is Drummond on bass. Nash’s confident, English voice always melts in well with his music. His lyrics, voice and band are certainly an eyebrow-raiser. “Oh! Camil (The Winter Soldier)” demonstrates Nash’s continuing distaste for war. Dave Mason is on this cut and plays his twelve-string acoustic in a strong, rebellious fashion.

The season began disastrously for the Baby Bulls, as they failed to pick up a victory in five tries the first semester. Defense was the team’s major problem, along with Hill’s inability to decide on a starting lineup. The Buffalo roster received a facelift for the second semester, dropping six of the original 13, largely because they were academically ineligible. “I would like to have kept [Wes] Marable and [Bob] Barnett,” only John Ruffino, sophomore, had been recruited. a “The purpose of the junior varsity,” explained Hill, “is to aid the varsity,” This is normally accomplished by giving freshman and sophomores more playing time than they would normally receive on the varsity. Using this as a criterion, the Baby Bulls remarked Hill. The Baby Bulls added 6-5 Don Weiss, a transfer from Jacksonville, guard John Trigilio and Peterson. Dave Ridell, the team’s shortest member, received more playing time and emerged as an important member of the squad. “We had to get better [because of the changes],” Hill noted. “We were a much better team the second half of the year.” the Baby Bulls squad, finishing second in scoring and leading the team in assists.

Perennial Big Ten contenders Ohio State and Michigan State join Seton Hall, the fourth entrant in last year’s District II playoff tournament, in completing the field. “This is the best tournament a team from Buffalo has ever gone to,” commented Monkarsh. “Any team who wants to be Division I and play the best possible competition has to go south for a spring training session. This is one of the things that enhances our recruiting of topflight local talent,” Monkarsh added. Road trip crucial The northern schedule is highlighted by two early road trips, featuring Fairfield, Seton Hall and Princeton as opponents on the initial road swing.

NAfjtyp Cm s r % UfO K, *», State University of New York at Buffalo S /9>. 8 March 1974 instructors grants Fac-Sen °RIAL' plus/minus grading option by Richard Kerman Contribu ting Editor Instructors have now “Surveys showed that students particularly didn’t want change a more elaborate system,” Dr. Lewis insisted, “every time someone on the committee had a suggestion for changfe, more problems were discovered,” he added. M r. Jackalone characterized the actions of the Faculty-Senate as “hasty,” adding: “It was a topic of major academic importance and there was very little discussion.” — the option to grade their students by adding a plus or minus to the usual ABCDF letter grade, according to a proposal passed by the Faculty-Senate Tuesday. Also approved was the proposal to add two students one undergraduate to the and one graduate — - Presidential Tenure Review Board (PRB) as non-voting members. Under the new grading option approved Tuesday an A equals 4.0 quality points, A- is worth 3.7, B+ equals 3.3, etc. There will be no A+ or F+ grades. According to the motion, the plus/minus option will be available only to instructors of undergraduate courses at their discretion. “It is very fair to allow the faculty to be able to have this increased degree of accuracy, insofar as we retain the present system,” maintained Harold Segal, professor of Biology and author of the motion. Informing the Senate of his support for extensive future revisions in the grading system, Dr. Segal argued that the addition of a plus/minus grading option was a necessary addition to the present system. - Overemphasis on grades In last October’s Student Association referendum, 90S students voted that they were satisfied with the present grading system while 790 students said they were not. Asked what they would prefer “as an alternative to the present grading system,” 588 students voted for the addition of a plus/minus system similiar to that passed by the Faculty-Senate, 428 preferred a system of pass/fail or pass/fail/pass with honors, and 296 desired another system altogether. “There is entirely too much emphasis on grades and records,’* Dr. Segal said. He felt there are benefits to a system by which instructors can evaluate, their students, but once evaluations they only serve the interests of those outside the University. Dr. Segal does not consider the results of last October’s referendum significant. become The plus/minus option was offered as an amendment to a motion calling for the retention of the prcserit ABCDF grading system as it now exists. Arguing against the plus/minus option, Student Association (SA) President-elect Frank Jackalone By making the system more competitive, you are sacrificing something from the educational experience.” said; “ Plus/minus “diminishes pressure for grades among students by making the differences between grades smaller,” Dr. Segal asserted. ‘Tt will diminish the degree of distinction which can only lessen competition because the prize is smaller.” “Despite its shortcomings, ABCDF should be retained,” commented professor of Sociology Lionel Lewis, chairman of the Faculty-Senate’s Grading and Evaluation Committee and sponsor of the original motion. be damaging to anybody, cannot exacerbate competition, and is in the best “Plus/minus cannot interest of the students,” he said. “1 oppose it (plus/minus] because it increases our role as socio-economic policemen and adds to our obsession with grades,” declared William Allen, professor of History. Will deflate grades “The issue is not grading precision but flexibility fof those that preserve the illusion that grades really measure something,” added English instructor Mark Schechner. “I don’t feel bound by a referendum, although I am influenced by it,” said Physics professor Jonathan Reichert, who voted for the plus/minus option. Although he believes grades often 1 do not represent the quality of a student’s supported work. Dr. Reichert the amendment because “Dr. Segal’s argument convinced me that the quantum leap from A to B was too great.’’ Dr. Reichert does not think plus/minus will reduce competition, but “people will be more inclined to divide students up into more realistic categories,’’ he said. Grades will probably go down, Dr. Reichert believes: “I think the University is very lenient with grades; the ‘A’ has become meaningless here.” “I don’t think there was any considered debate; there are a number of false implications about its effect,” said Dr. Segal. He continued: “Students who oppose it as detrimental to student interest are responding in a Lavlovian manner.” ‘Starting point’ Speaking in favor of the motion later approved by the Senate to place two students on the Presidential Tenure Review Board, SA President Jon Dandes maintained the proposal “is not to allow students to promote their friends or to usurp power from the faculty, but to develop a mechanism by which students can have some input.” Mr. Dandes continued; “Methods by which - - departments decide (tenure) are so varied that it is impossible for students to develop input. This,” he added, “is a starting point.” The proposal, sponsored by professor of German Michael Metzger, and approved in December by the Faculty-Senate executive committee, was developed through the combined efforts of the SA and Graduate Student Association (GSA), led by Mr. Dandes and former GSA President Joe Poveromo. Leading oppositon to the proposal came from Dr. Lewis, who asked: “What could a student add to the PRB?” “Students could make sure that procedures are followed and could provide additional research,” answered Mr. Poveromo. “What does one student know about any particular case?” Dr. Lewis inquired. ‘‘What does one faculty —continued on page 2— Solkoff on psychology from class to clinic by Amy Dunkin Campus Editor If you think it’s tough lecturing to 600 students at one time without putting two-thirds of them to sleep, then catch the sensational Norman Solkoff sometime. Father of the renowned “Childhood and Adolescence” and “Abnormal Psychology” learning jamborees. Dr. Solkoff combines skills in acting, oratory and even dancing to enhance„the presentation of his material. And he doesn’t even use a microphone. Although, excited by helping “600 students learn something,” Or. Solkoff admittedly feels “very anxious” at the 6f each class. “I worry about making rnyfelf understood. It’s as. if I am looking at a collage. The clotJiihg and facial, expressions all blend together, and I periodically focus on a given individual for feedback,” Dr. Solkoff said. His present “Abnormal” lecture class is one of the few that allows a question-and-answer period. This gives him the chance to clarify specific points and assess the students’ understanding of the subject matter. Students may also attend optional recitation sections, taught by undergraduate psychology majors with several courses in abnormal psychology and field work experience under their belts. The main goal of the recitations. Dr. Solkoff explained, is to personalize the class, although he doesn’t know whether the students’ performances will improve as a result. must Student trends Assessing the characteristics of the present-day student population, Dr. Solkoff noted that students in the 1960’s worked through the universities to deal with social issues outside the mainstream of university life. “They were concerned with acquiring knowledge. With the escalation of the Vietnam War and a government that refused to listen, students said: 'That is outrageous; we must do something’.” However, the job market has tightened significantly, leading students to become more concerned with their future, Dr. Solkoff observed. From the social, more altruistic concerns of the 1960’s comes the present struggle for personal survival, he said, and the intense competition for grades and acceptance to professional schools. “Students are much more boring, less alive, moping, dragging their feet almost as if with Parkinsonism. They are removed from the —continued on page 4 — �PlUS/mmUS. / member know?” replied Mr. Poveromo, ‘‘Well, maybe there shouldn’t even be a PRB,” Dr. Lewis speculated.

A major misconception arose out of the article concerning Sunshine House, and I feel it is necessary to clarify this point. The misconception that came out of the article concerned friends of a person who was tripping. A contradiction arose as to the role of a “trusted friend.” A quote was given stating that “a friend means nothing to a person who is tripping.” The quote leads to questions as it stands. The quote was made in the context of “friends” who didn’t know what they were doing.~As examples of when a trusted friend means nothing to a tripper, we can examine the common misconceptions concerning tripping. Friends, who are well-meaning but may have little knowledge concerning an acid bummer, may decide that a cold shower or throwing the person in the snow will terminate the trip. These acts will only compound the existing problems in that now besides a bad acid trip, the friend has to deal with medical shock. The same holds for persons who are unresponsive due to the actions of quaalude. A second misconception concerning an acid trip is that another drug will terminate the trip. Common antidotes (or “false” antidotes) are Vitamin C tablets or valium. If the person who is bumming is feeling paranoid about the effects of the acid (which is a copimon factor in the transition from a good trip to a bummer) and a friend offers the person anothet five or six pills, the effects will probably be negative. . One other misconception that may have arisen concerned a quote from the Long Term Psychological Effects of LSD. The impression created was that adverse reactions to LSD only occurred “among individuals emotionally disturbed, in crisis situations, insecure environments, or unsupervised settings.” This quote concerned research settings ONLY. One cannot completely control the environment in a itort-research environment. Therefore: there »S no way to determine beforehand whether a trip willbe good or bad. If anyone has questions concerning any drug or emotional problem, you can call Sunshine House at 831-4046 or stop in at 106 Winspear • •* * ' ~ Avenue Thank you Mike R.

So why the “oil crisis?” According to Victor Perlo, chairman of the National Economic Commission of the Communist Party, U.S.A., the “oil crisis” is due to forced shortages by the oil companies, nationalization by foreign oil-producing nations, and the general contradictions of the imperialist economic system. Mr. Perlo elaborated on these charges in a talk to over 200 people in Norton Union’s Haas Lounge Tuesday night as part of the ongoing symposium on Capitalism Today. Oil cpmpanies have a monopoly on oil production, Mr. Perlo claimed, and have reduced the supply and increased the prices in order to maximize their profits. Some oil and gas is being diverted to European countries Germany, where shortages are greater, and gas such there is selling for $ 1.25 to $1.50 per gallon. U.S. oil refining companies have cut back production to 82% of capacity, and expect to get fuel up to $.80 per gallon, Mr. Perlo charged. Oil experts expect the major oil companies to be making $20 billion in 1977, $40 billion in 1981 and $80 billion in 198S. CIA and oil In the past, American oil companies have enjoyed windfall profits from oil fields in underdeveloped foreign countries. Until 1960, they paid about a penny (1.2 cents) per gallon of oil from these countries, primarily from the Middle East, Mr. Perlo said. Now most of these countries have nationalized their oil, and are getting 35% to 40% of the final selling price. Because of this, government officials and military generals representing the oil companies have threatened these oil-producing countries with military intervention, if they don’t knuckle under to U.S. demands for control and low prices. As proof that these are not idle threats, Mr. Perlo pointed to the CIA-inspired coup in Iran in 1953 to regain oil concessions for U.S. companies that had been nationalized. More recently is the allegedly CIA-inspired coup in Chile to overthrow the Allende government, because of their nationalization of American copper interests and other resources. In both cases, reactionary governments took power, and allowed U.S. companies to return. Because of nationalization, changes are being made in even the most politically backward countries, like Saudi Arabia, Mr. Perlo said. Nationalization has led to the growth of a working class to process the oil, and this class is pressing the government for basic democratic rights. No socialist crisis The large and powerful oil companies in the U.S. dominate the government, he said. Half of all profits from foreign investments go to oil companies, and so the threats of war on behalf of the oil companies are that much more dangerous, Mr. Perlo declared. In the socialist countries, there is no energy crisis, Mr. Perlo contended. The reasons why the Soviet Union, for example, doesn’t have an energy crisis is because they don’t have investments in foreign countries, because they have developed their own abundant resources, and because tfyey have a planned economy controlled by the workers and the people. Mr. Perlo predicted that the Soviet Union will be the largest oil producer in the world in a few years, and that the people’s standard of living will continue to rise. For the U.S., he predicts a continual downturn, an interruption of the downturn, and then a recession of greater magnitude than the recession of 1969-70. In this country, living standards are dropping and inflation and prices are rising. Real take home pay is 4% lower In January 1974 than in January 1973, he added. The highest shortages are hitting the black and Spanish-speaking communities, with some landlords and gas companies cutting off heating gas in the middle of winter. This, in contrast to the increasing profits of oil and other companies, and the loss of monopoly control in more and more foreign countries, is a sign of the crisis in the imperialistic economic system, Mr. Perlo argued. Oil should be nationalized Independent truck drivers, coal miners, auto workers, other labor bodies, student and community groups are demanding that the American oil industry be nationalized. While Mr. Perlo believes the final solution to these economic crises is the construction of socialism, he and the Communist party see the movement for nationalization of the oil industry as an important first step. Mr. Perlo urged building a movement to press for nationalization, under the control of an elected council of representatives from labor, student and other groups. Victor Perlo received his MA from Columbia in 1933 in Mathematics, and worked as a government economist from 1933 to 1947. He has written numerous books on economics including The Empire of High Finance, and The Unstable Economy. He has written numerous articles for economic journals here and abroad, and is an economic columnist for the Communist party’s newspaper, Daily, World. He is also an instructor at Antioch College in Washington, D.C., and at the Center for Marxist Education in New York. Opening ofEllicott causing need for activities by Richard Deep Spectrum Staff Writer \y v With 3000 students moving into the Ellicott Complex next semester** more and more students will find themselves isolated from the center of University activities. Although the majority of students will be housed on the Amherst Campus, almost all the University’s clubs and- organizations will remain on the Main Street campus until at least 1977. No student clubs will be moved until the Amherst’s Spine Library opens, revealed John Telfer, vice-president for Facilities Planning. One wing of Spine Library, which is scheduled to open in 1977, will be reserved specifically for clubs and other organizations. ■ “We won’t have space available until thenv’fT explaitled Mr. Telfer. ‘‘Consequently, we plan to move the essential services first.” So fap, space'has been reserved only for health services and student affairs. However, Some space has been promised to the Student Association (SA). The Inter-Residence Council (IRC) has also placed a written request for Space in Ellicott. Without being definite, Mr. Telfer claimed this was “ho major problem.” Student Association moving SA has submitted a 20-page list of space proposals to Facilities Planning. These include requests for office space, cafeteria arrangements and game rooms. “Nothing is definite yet,” explained Howie Schapiro, SA’s North Campus Co-ordinator. “We’d like to arrange things so we can operate more closely with IRC. For at least the next three years, we are going to have to do a lot.” Jess Rainer, IRC vice-president, said services and activities “At this point, Sub-Board has no plans to move physically to the North Campus,” said Steve Blumenkrantz, executive director of Sub-Board. “What we are tor to co-ordinate Campus. Mark Carlin, director of Community Action Corps (CAC), explained: “There is no community out there. The Ellicott Complex is a total living center. People never have to leave the building. As a consequence, they are not going to be as aware of the problems of Buffalo,” Mr. Carlin said. “They won’t be breathing the air, they won’t see the East Side; we expect a real problem in recruiting volunteers. Transportation is another big problem.” CAC has not requested any space at Amherst for the coming semester. They will, however, ask for offices in Spine Library in 1977. We will expand with the University, Mr. Carlin said. / They plan three area councils, one pach for Goodyear-Clement, Governor’s Residence and Ellicott. In addition, IRC also has plans for a store in Ellicott. This re-arrangement should hopefully eliminate problems faced by Governor’s Residence students this year regarding a lack of IRC activities at Amherst.” By not actually moving, Sub-Board feels it can get around the “space crunch” but still make sure there are sufficient activities available to Amherst residents. Strangely enough, one organization is not at all eager to move to the North Plans for Norton What will become of Norton Union? A complete study is presently under way by Facilities Planning to determine how the Union might best be used. It may be turned into -a communications center for the publications and radio stations, or it may remain as a union for the health science students who will attend classes on the Main Campus. “The center of gravity of the University will tip from the Main Campus to the North Campus in 1977,” said Mr. Telfer. “That is when the first major library [Spine] will open and the President’s office will move in.” But for the 3000 students who will be living on the North Campus next semester, the center may tip toward Amherst a lot sooner CAC elections Community Action Corps is holding elections for the following positions: Director, 1st assistant Director, 2nd assistant Director and Treasurer. Applications are also being accepted for coordinators in the areas of Day Care, Drug and Youth Counseling, Health Care, Educations, Legal and Welfare, Social Service and Recreation, and Action.

Page three . �Joint efforts for alcoholics «r by Sparky Alzamora Spectrum Staff Writer Ron and Bridget share the same problem: they are the husband and daughter of a recovering alcoholic. Less than two years ago, their lives were shattered by a wife and mother whose drinking almost caused the break-up Of their family. How each person began to slowly piece their lives together and overcome individual difficulties was related on “Cop Out Great American Pastime," broadcast on radio last WKBW Sunday evening. Hostess Susanne Cook briefly described the history of the Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) organization, and the ALANON and ALATEBN programs which derived from AA. Alcoholics Anonymous was formed in 1935 for people who could no longer cope with their drinking problem and live normal lives. — . Relative therapy Soon after, the spouses of AA members met to discuss their own problems, and subsequently adopted the AA’s twelve steps and slogans. These random meetings of spouses increased significantly over the years, and ALANON, a group for the spouses of alcoholics, came into existence around 1951. The children of alcoholics also began organizing meetings and formed ALATEEN in 1957. Bridget joined a chapter of the ALATEEN program four months ago and has experienced “great peace of mind” since then. She defined the purpose of the program as “coping with the alcoholic parent and living your own life.” Bridget enjoys being with the people in the ALATEEN program because “they all have the same problem in their home.” “We all have questions we ask each other,” said Bridget. “When a new person enters ALATEEN, the first step is to admit that he or she is powerless over the alcoholic. You can only help the alcoholic by helping yourself,” she emphasized. Ron has belonged to ALANON for over a year and has found that “everybody outside the program can’t give me advice what to do.” He admitted he had no control over his wife until he convinced her to go to AA. At the same time, he began to attend the Saturday night meetings of ALANON. Recently, he graduated into the AA program to deal with his own drinking problem. Referring to ALANON sponsors, Ron said: “We have a sponsor who will come out anytime of the day or night. Once I craved a drink at 1 a.m. and the sponsor came out and stayed with me until five in the morning.” Ron credited the success'of ALANON to “an awful lot of love and no phoniness. People try to straighten out their lives the best they can.” Asked whether or not she had ever experienced feelings of insanity, Bridget replied that there were times she felt she was “going crazy.” She explained: “Some teenagers are confused because they think they’re the cause of their parent’s problem.” Since her involvement with ALATEEN, Bridget’s school work has steadily improved. “I’m getting along with my teachers now,” she said, “and I’m looking at life differently.” Guilt feelings There were times, however, when Bridget felt like running away. But she would always have second thoughts because she felt “guilty” about leaving her mother alone. She could never have friends in the house because of her mother’s condition: “I covered up by saying she had an awful cold.” All her girlfriends disappeared and she turned to male companions for the caring she needed. Being the youngest in her family meant additional hardships for Bridget when her father left home more than once. “She had to take care of her mother constantly,” said Ron, who eventually returned time and time again. ALANON and ALATEEN changed all that and people now visit Ron’s family all the time. “There’s a beautiful glow of Solkoffon psychology mainstream of intellectual thinking,” Dr. Solkoff conceded sadly. Attributing the overt increase in psychology majors to the availability of jobs, Dr. Solkoff said psych courses are often “the student’s first attempt to deal with his personal problems.” He also cited the relevance of psychoanalytic theory in relation to other majors, especailly literature, criticism, and theater. Prevention —continued from page 1 — Dr. Solkoff indicated that psychologists are moving “looking more closely at environmental and learning factors.” He said developmental psychology is placing greater emphasis on cognitive development “a la Piaget” than on Freud’s more traditional, psychosexual development model. Dr. Solkoff criticized the Nixon Administration for substantially slashing allocations for mental health research: “Conservative and right-wingers are suspicious of psychologists. They think psychologists are trying to brainwash people into believing in another system,” he asserted. He pointed out that a five-year grant to teach human behavior to medical students was eliminated at this University. A curtailment of federally-sponsored research programs, particularly at the universities, leaves no money to innovate, he said. “Government will set the tone of research by responding to an instant political issue,” Dr. Solkoff maintained. He said once a research “fad” is established, money is pumped in, but then the fad is dropped as quickly as it was acquired and therefore no one can do a thorough-going analysis. away from the Freudian model and love in these people,” he said. Another step in the AA procedure is to make a searching inventory of yourself. Bridget realized she had a lot of self-pity and more hate than she cared to think about. “I hated everybody, everybody jn my family.” Ron found it more difficult to take this inventory. He regretted all the selfishness he exhibited during his lifetime, and had to learn to give freely “and not expect rewards.” Due to the ALANON and ALATEEN programs, Ron and Bridget are well on their way to restoring normalcy to their family life. They realized that in order to help the one they loved, they had to first care for themselves. accept a research fad. ■ ..I Labelling the recent “Exorcist” craze'a “response to despair,” Dr. Solkoff said the same thing explains the interest in the mystical personality theorist, Carl Jung. “We have reached the point of a practically computerized society. The disappointment with technology has led people in frustration to look outside science to better their lives,” Dr. Solkoff observed. He continued: “Our lives are miserable, enormously pessimistic. In looking for explanations, go out of the realm of the physical world to possession by the devil.” 'Since organized religion seems to have lost its appeal, Dr. Solkoff predicted that people will become more mystical and turn to the occult, palmistry, and parapsychology. “Beliefs spring up at times when people are disillusioned. Germany after World War 1 offered explanations to the people who felt most devastated,” he ' elaborated. I « Discussing modern trends in clinical and developmental psychology. Dr. Solkoff said the major thrust is in the area of prevention. Psychologists have been exploring the area of community psychology, looking at various social structures and familyi-elations and how they affect development. “There is a feeling that hospitalization may result in rapid deterioration,” he commented. “The movement is away from the hospital and toward putting mental health patients in community surroundings.” Researcher as well Mental health facilities in Western New York vary Dr. Solkoff is presently involved in three areas of enormously from outmoded to modern approaches, Dr. Solkoff explained. State hospitals are undergoing serious research. In one study, he is attempting to enrich the environments of premature infants by using visual, challenges and may be dismantled in favor of Headstart stopped clinics, believes, store-front he that neighborhood adding auditory, and tactile stimulation to hopefully compensate Terming the Head Start program a “political issue and for presumed deficiencies, and eliminate problems before there are “terrible treatment facilities for children.” An “interesting para-professional movement” has a fad,” he said there was a proliferation of programs they grow older. Trying to offer evidence to contradict the work of grown in Western New York which “places people on ranging from incompetent to competent; and after several career ladders progressing from the lowest mental health years. Head Start has received a negative evaluation. So the Arthur Jensen, Dr. Solkoff is also investigating the workers to the professionals,” Dr. Solkoff said. This government concluded that early intervention in children's differences between black and white IQ scores. Dr. Jensen arrangement deals with the relative shortage of education doesn’t work. But the programs were just proposed that blacks score lower than whites on IQ tests due to genetic differences. highly-skilled workers by allowing nurse clinicians and terrible, Dr. Solkoff stated. Although he cautioned against doing research based Finally, through a bettery of personality tests issued other para-professionals to assume responsibility, under supervision, for the primary care of patients. “It’s not on instant political change, Dr. Solkoff maintained: to students in their first and last years of professional one’s degree that makes him a good therapist,” Dr. Solkoff “University faculty, looking for funds, jump on the graduate school, Dr. Solkoff is attempting to determine said, “but feeling, understanding, and knowledge of bandwagon.” Because publishing is still so important, he the attitudes towards death and dying among prospective claimed, faculty are prepared to redirect their activities to doctors, lawyers, etc. interpersonal relationships.” ANNOUNCING The House of Representatives has passed their bill to raise Veterans benefits with a vote of 384 0 or wore information see f mm mm U.B.

The number of men and women was approximately equal, with a large group of minority students present as well. Indeed, the conference was a "liberal” one, in both the complimentary and derogatory sense of the word. It would not adopt resolutions calling for President Nixon’s immediate resignation, but it did adopt resolutions calling for increased minority group representation on the NSL board of directors. Resolutions supporting the sale of alcoholic beverages to people over 18 years of age passed without debate. But a resolution endorsing a campaign against the production of the B-l bomber met with dismal failure. It was argued and eventually agreed that the NSL, since it represents over two million students nationwide, should not take stands on issues as potentially divisive as that. The problem then, as always, is that the resolutions become watered down. As lobbying moves into the forefront of effective political change, so must the National Student Lobby. It has. Students have realized that the street tactics of the middle-to-Iate 1960’s did not affect any politicians. It is in the “back rooms” where policy is really made, through the intensive efforts of the stereotyped cigar-chomping lobbyists. Students, if they invade the back rooms, can affect their futures, as well as affecting real social and political change. Congressmen listen to their constituents they have to. Each person that has contact with the Congressman has ten friends, who each have ten friends, by Marc Jacobson City Editor Although last year’s National Student Lobby conference met with only dubious success, the 1974 NSL conference was more productive, It had its shortcomings, butthe net result was that student influence at the highest levels of government was felt and will continue to be felt for years to come. The third annual conference -in Washington, D.G. could be termed a turning point for students nationwide. After students from across the country had met with their own Congressional representatives, after Capitol Hill was buzzing with questions about the “Student Lobby” buttons, it was revealed that well over 400 Congressmen from, both .the Senate and the House had met with students during the four-day conference. The Lobby took -adopting resolutions on critical social new direction issues received official recognition as Senator Hubert Humphrey inserted NSC chairman Willis Edwards’ opening remark? into the Congressional Record after praising the students’ efforts. - - Bourgeois Students Naturally, any convention of one thousand “student leaders” is bound to evolve into battle of egos, and those competing egos helped deteriorate the Lobby’s business meetings. But somehow, through the amazing diplomacy of several members of the NSL board of directors, business was completed. The convention plodded along, and students eventually became educated in fields in which they had previously had limited knowledge, particularly regarding financial aid programs. They approached their but informed. They Congressmen, apprehensive, awed left enthused, at ease, and with the realization that the people in Congress are just like anyone else; as Layton Olson said: “They put their pants on one leg at a time.” — etc. When elections are decided by margins of less than a thousand votes, every inquiry, every plea must be sincerely considered by the politician. The National Student Lobby can become the vehicle through which students can become a viable political force. The New York delegation was part of the most radical region of the country’s six regions. Both the impeachment — and abortion resolutions were proposed by the New York delegation; the amnesty resolution was proposed by the delegates from Maine. All three resolutions were ultimately passed by each state’s entire region, and met with an extremely favorable reaction when presented to the conference. A delegation of about eight students met with Congressman Jack Kemp (R., Hamburg). Representative Kemp was extremely receptive, and his position on the House Education and Labor committees is deemed critical for efforts to increase financial aid to students and eliminate the youth differential from the minimum wage bill. Under the guise of controlling inflation, the youth differential would allow employers to pay students 80% of the minimum wage. Mr. Kemp assured the students that the youth differential had been effectively killed except and said the for some pilot projects around -the country Education committee was reporting out a massive aid bill to Congress that supported nearly all the National Student - — * Lobby s positions. ? Make it work On the other hand. Senator James Buckley’s aide was very hostile toward the students who visited his office. His position on the abortion issue was the most controversial one, which led to the demise of the meeting. Students from New York State suggested the immediate formation of a state-wide organization with the sole purpose of insuring victory for Senator Buckley’s opponent in 1976. Since the National Student Lobby has become so effective in so short a time, it is essential that this University become involved at all levels. The State University of Buffalo was once considered a leading institution for “student radicals” and political change. We should return to that status, although through more legitimate means. All the various student associations should join the Lobby (minimum cost $150) so this University’s 20,000-plus students are adequately and properly heard in Washington. On the undergraduate level in particular, SA’s National Affairs Coordinator should maintain constant, close contact with the Lobby’s Washington office, and inform the students about what is happening. The National Affairs coordinator should organize regional meetings, facilitate communication, and assist the Lobby in recruiting additional schools as members. Only with a broad base of representation will students begin to gain recognition as a viable political force to be reckoned with. � ���� ����������� Bishop Newman Student Council Proudly presents University Photo Harry Chapin in concert/ OPEN TODAY AND TOMORROW 10 a.m.—6 p.m. Call 831*4113 or come to room 355 Norton Hall- Ask for Larry or Kim.

But to make every student subject to even more meaningless gradations at the instructor's whim is totally unfair, Because of the hasty manner in which this unannounced proposal, which wasn't even on the agenda, was debated and slipped through and because, on a sensitive by the Senate like issue grading, the feelings of students as expressed in a referendum and elsewhere were callously ignored we strongly urge to refuse President Ketter to sign this — — — - * - . > ■ ' 1 • _ L - — •*- - — — - regressive educational proposal. already been decided at lower levels. Over 90% of tenure decisions are made at the departmental level, and it is there that students must redouble their efforts to have greater input. SA President-elect Frank Jackalone must work to provide greater student representation on departmental tenure committees. And despite cynical beliefs to the contrary, personal letters from students evaluating their instructors are carefully considered by departments as a measure of weighing the tenure candidate's teaching abilities weighing teaching abilities. — — Although adding two students to the President's Tenure Review Board is a welcome step, it is not nearly as important as increasing efforts at the departmental level where tenure decisions are really made to strengthen the student voice in deciding which instructors remain at this University to teach them. six The Spectrum Friday, 8 March 1974 . . by William S. Allen — Tenure: start at the bottom have The addition of two non-voting students to the Presidential Tenure Review Board which was wisely approved by the is an important Faculty-Senate Tuesday breakthrough but far from a cure-all. The presence of two students at Presidential-level tenure discussions will undoubtedly help to keep the procedure "honest." They will also convey student feelings on particular instructors being considered for tenure, hopefully stemming the tide of immensely popular teachers being let go for nebulous reasons or lack of publishing prowess. Finally, it represents an which admission by the Faculty-Senate jealously guards its unilateral role in that students should academic decisions a non-voting one, in have a voice, albeit instructors are granted deciding which tenure. Despite its high-sounding name, however, the Presidential Tenure Board handles perhaps 5 or 10% of the tenure,decisions that Editor’s Note: This Guest Opinion is being reprinted from April 1973. Some of Dr. Allen’s comments are aimed at the continual grading scale between 0.3 and 4.3 proposed, along with the plus/minus option, to the Faculty-Senate last spring. — — The current controversy over grades is another example of the inability of the University, which examines everything else in the world critically, to apply the same standards to itself. A history of grading practices would probably show that they once had justifiable functions from which they have now since degenerated into the absurd role they now perform. One thinks of Max Weber’s famous dictum; “The rationality of the parts becomes the irrationality of the whole.” Exposures of functional absurdity sometimes appear when men who are not part of an institution are asked to use its hallowed standards. Some years ago Robert Frost was persuaded to give a seminar at Yale. His method was simply to have students spend one evening a week with him drinking cider and talking about poems. But towards the end of the semester, a university official nervously informed Frost that he would have to assign a grade to each , student. Later Frost was asked how he did this: , a “I just asked each one to write an‘e$saV ’on ‘What 1 Warded from this course’.” ‘And what did they write?” “Well, one wrote: ‘Not a damned thing.’ I gave him a ‘B’,” “Why didn’t you give him an ‘A’?” . . “He misspelled ‘damned’.” So let us begin with fundamentals. All grades are subjective evaluations and have little positive effect upon the learning process. It is true that as threats they may drive students to work harder; they may also produce anxiety or rebellion, however, and so may impede learning as much as they promote it. The best teachers would prefer to give no grades, desire simply to teach, want students who are eager to learn because they are interested in the ' .* ., , ' subject. That does not preclude evaluation of a student’s work. After all, a student pays me to tell him what he’s doing wrong so that he can learn to do it right. But that’s between him and me; 1 am acting as his technical advisor. Once grades enter in, I become a repotter to the outside world about my students’ abilities. I know that assessment may become ultimately necessary (my students may wind up teaching my children and I don’t want my children to be taught by incompetents), but this should be kept as far from my relationship with a student as possible. The ideal situation would be one in which a separate agency does the testing. That way students and teachers could become allies, as they should be. In short, the grading process works against the teaching process. Secondly, grades are impossible to determine with objective precision. 1 know prretty clearly who sould get an “A” and who should get an “F.” The fine distinctions in between are the ones we agonize over, partly because we know they are largely meaningless in evaluative terms, but we also know that they will acquire an independent life which will be used to peg the student in his real life. This docs not mean that I determine grades casually. On the contrary, 1 mark my students’ exams and papers in percentages so that instead of getting, say, a “B—” from me, they get an “81” or an “82” on the tests I return to them. But when it comes time to assign a final grade, 1 remember that the sum of subjective assessments has not become any more than it was originally, even if it has acquired a kind of bogus precision through being expressed in the mystical language of percentages. But the computer doesn’t know that. 7 1 should also like to note that I do have standards 1 insist upon. I take my subject seriously and expect students to also (in fact, I would be cheating them otherwise). So my classes have regularly had about ten percent “F’s” and the number of “drops” from my courses is about double that. I am not going to pretend that a student has learned the minimum necessary amount about my subject when he hasn’t. So what shall we do about grades? Ideally, 1 would like to abolish them completely in favor of a system of comprehensive final examinations to earn the degree. But that would require a national reform. As for what SUNY/Buffalo can do now, I propose that we should require from the faculty only three grades: “adequate, , , Grades are arbitrary labels. They are nothing more than an alphabetic expedient: since faculty "cannot possibly write detailed, meaningful evaluations of hundreds of students in a course, the approximate labels of A, B and C must suffice. The view that plusses and minuses provide a “fairer” yardstick of academic performance is an illusion; an extra plus this semester is an extra minus next semester, and the gains and losses will even out over four years. Defending his plus/minus plan in the Faculty-Senate, Biology professor Harold Segal argued: "By making smaller the difference between grades," plus/minus will “lessen competition because the prize is smaller." Unfortunately, he is dead wrong, Instead, plus/minOS will increase competition for grades because there will be more cut-off points to strive for, as in struggling for a B-plus instead of a B. This, of course, means that students will be competing for the tiny added benefit of a plus, or .3 out of 4.0, a figure which exposes the whole concept as absurditv The Faculty-Senate has completely ignored the concerns of students by hastily granting instructors this plus/minus grading option. Although more than half the students said they were satisfied with the present ABCDF grading system in last October s referendum even as an alternative, almost as many voters preferred the grade-less pass/fail/honors system as favored plus/minus the Senate totally ignored that sentiment by hastily approving the would-be panacea of plus/minus. In the intense competition to get into medical, law and graduate schools, fighting for grades has become a career goal for many students. The grade-consciousness fostered by grad school competition has led some particularly those labelled B students because they got two more test questions to ask that wrong than those rated A narrow the and be used to plusses minuses Unfortunately, between letters. this logic gap not only presumes that grades are an accurate measure of learning (which they are not), but implies that high grades are the ultimate goal of education. Perhaps the argument that grades are arbitrary is not relevant to the science major whose career, as he sees it, depends on his grade-point average, arbitrary or not. But what is most distasteful about the Senate plan is that the option of using a plus/minus grade is given solely to the faculty member not the student. If the student could decide (as with pass/fail), those students who felt that plusses and minuses provided a "fairer" in ».< inadequate,” and occasionally, “very good.” I want exactly those terms because anything else is pretentious and also puts more emphasis upon grades than they should have. “Excellent” might be permitted if the instructor is limited to using it once for every 1000 students, which is about the frequency with which abtual excellence appears. As for the entrie idea of grading people on a 37-point scale (from 0.3 for “D—” to 4.0 for “A”) as was proposed to the Faculty Senate last year, it is a complete sell-out to the computerization of humanity and is also pretentious and arrogant. It is'a measure of how brain-washed our students have become that the Student Assembly should have accepted it (analogous to slaves insisting that their chains be vinyl-coated so they won’t chafe so much). I recognize the problem of discontinuous scales, the injustice that occurs when a student with a “C+” is abruptly segmented from one with a “B—,” but the answer is not more spurious distinctions but fewer. A scale as fine as 37 points lays claims to differentiations more subtle than 1 am capable of in honesty and humility, and I challenge any faculty member here or elsewhere to show that he can do a better job of differentiating than 1 can. Let us therefore be honest about what we can distinguish (and in the process minimize the faculty’s role as social-economic policemen). We can do that by adopting a simple and humble system of assessments: “adequate, inadequate,” and “very good.” �Through the Looking Glass ■ Birth Control crisis To all students: Due to arbitrary decisions by the school administration and Albany, all funds for the U.B. Birth Control Clinic have suddenly been cut off. This has caused a crisis situation in the financial maintenance of the Clinic. In order to pay back bills, order supplies, and maintain a working, responsible medical facility, we have been forced as a last resort to raise our visit fees. As of March 1, all initial visits are $7.00, and all followup checkups after 6-months are $S.00, both as money orders. Supply prices are presently not increasing. We sincerely hope these are only temporary increases and following financial stability, prices will again be reduced. The staff of the U.B. Birth Control Clinic are very distressed about the need to pass the crisis on to the students. However, this is our only alternative short of closing down the Clinic and terminating its services to students. Any questions, please call 831-3522, Monday thru Friday, 12 to 4 p.m. U.B. Birth Control Clinic Why Law School? To the Editor. I have read The Spectrum’s two recent articles concerning law school, and I am struck by their peculiarly mechanistic style. Much is made of the time one can expect to devote to the study of law. A description of the tedious but simple application process with the attendant loathesome LSAT which I recall so well consumes over one-half of a page. I believe it behooves anyone who purports to advise prospective law students to ask some more basic and important questions and identify certain assumptions. How is law peculiarly appropriate or inappropriate in resolving various problems? If you contemplate a legal education as a means toward effecting social betterment, is the adversary context the most effective means for bringing about change? Do you assume that attorneys make a great deal of money? Are you aware that a professional school makes demands far different both quantitatively and qualitatively, from the undergraduate experience? I earnestly feel that only by confronting these sorts of questions can one intelligently make the very important decision about how one may wish to continue one’s education. Roger J. Schwarz SUNYAB Faculty of Law and Jurisprudence - We agree that the questions you be asked, and invite other comments from the University community and Law School on the relevance of a legal education.

It is reported that 44 graduate assistantships in Arts and Letters are being eliminated as a result of a financial crisis: a deficit in that Faculty was incurred when the Provost recommended the appointment of 11 tenured professors for whom he had no available budgetary lines. Is this true? If so, is the situation peculiar to this one Faculty, or is it a practice or policy in other faculties and schools at SUNYAB? CRAZY you *ay! Ha, 1 can prove all of those stories and incidents that I have related to you yet, are the God’s honest truth. Call me mad they called other crusaders and prophets mad they told wild stories, fantasmagoric creations, outlandish tales but they told the truth, just like me. I am only a simple man, a decent man, an honest craftsman called in to apply my talents in carpentry. What I have to say might land me in the nut-house, but it’s my duty to tell what I saw, anyway, if I don’t tell someone soon, I might'not be around to tell my story. It was a simple carpentry job on a magnificent white home; yeah, it was in Washington not far from that house in Georgetown where those two priests died. My partner and I were called in to remodel a room that had formerly been used for an elaborate tape system. The people of the house at first were quite nice to us, giving us drinks, asking our opinion on various national issues, ya know, just being, plain folks. Then the weird stuff began to unbalance my sense of reality. At five, ya know, quittin’ time, they wouldn’t let us go home. Said something like national security, exectuvie I’m really not too sure really what the privilege but those crewcuts in those hell he said monkey suits came across a lot stronger then this guy who was trying to make it perfectly clear. So Fred and me (Fred’s my partner) decided to stay overnight ya know, why not we got free booze, free food; all in all, a really nice deal. Then it started! It was at dinner we were eating steak and stuff while the owner of the house was eating cottage cheese and ketchup, when all of a sudden these weird noises startdd coming out of it was horrible, indescribable.

As he talked, objects in the room began to fly around until it seemed that I was in the middle of a whirlpool bath. Man, that guy was off his rocker. Well, that’s what 1 thought until he began to change shape and turn into . . . into . . . dammit he turned into the devil. He only stayed in that form for a few minutes but after that happened, I knew that he had been possessed by the devil and I had to get help. He left the room after tearing down the Constitution of the United States and using it for toilet paper. I’ve never seen a man so full of shit before; it seemed to ooze from every pore of his body. Soon as he left, I climbed out of the window and ran to you. Father, I don’t know what to do can the Church do anything to help him? If the Church can’t help him, what can the average person do to protect himself from such a menace? I heard that the Church has a ritual that it’s call exorcism. can rid a person of the Devil Would it be . . . aaagggghhh! Poscript: With these words, the unknown man was seized by a fit and died. After consultation with other priests and distinguished members of society, we studied the allegations and found that an ancient ritual was needed.

Then all of a sudden, one of his I really am daughters stood up and . . . and embarrassed to say what she did. She . . pissed on the floor while shouting, “Stick your Cox up your Jaworski.” Well, me and Fred didn’t know what to do, us being good Catholics and Republicans at the same time. We decided to go downstairs to the bowling alleys and roll a few, like we were back in Kelley’s. Fred won the toss and bowled first; as he was movin’ down the alley, his head twisted completely around, and instead of the ball goin’ down the alley - his head flew off his shoulders and rolled down toward the pins. 1 dunno, even if it was a strike, 1 don’t know whether it’s legal or not. Anyway, I turned around and there was Fred with a bowling ball for a head. No kiddin, I wouldn’t joke with something as serious as bowling. 1 ran upstairs to get help; I wasn’t going to hang around Fred, not him lookin’ the way he did. As I got back upstairs, the moaning increased and became mixed with gibberish and words that seemed to make no sense.

'I JUST PICKID THK LESSER OF TWO IVILS—JUST LIKE YOU YANKS DID IN YOUR LAST ILICTIONI' Editorial policy is determined by the Editor-in-Chief q Friday, 8 March 19?4\*The Spectrum Tage seven �An optimistic outlook for unionization of workers by Paul Krehbiel Spectrum Staff Writer A drive to organize cafeteria workers here is underway by the'TIotel, Motel, Restaurant, Cafeteria, Luncheonette and Hospital Employees Union, Local 66, AFL-CIO. About 90 cafeteria workers, primarily women, serve the entire University community, preparing food and cleaning up the facilities. Many of these women are the sole supporters of their families, and, after five to ten years of service to the University, are averaging about $2.50 per hour. . The recent unionizing effort came about when cafeteria workers on this campus learned of the contract that cafeteria workers just received at Buffalo State College. As the organizing effort began here, the union charged that the University Administration threatened to fire any 48 hours workers who joined. However, Len Snyder, assistant vice president of the Faculty-Student Association, responded by saying that these charges have “absolutely no substance.” They are “absolutely false,” he added. Mr. Cariola, President of the 3000 member cafeteria workers union in Western New York, pointed out that it is illegal to fire or discriminate against employees for joining unions or for union activities. Contract terms Ten years ago. Local 66 waged a legal battle on behalf of cafeteria workers at this University. The workers were laid off during the summer and were unable to collect unemployment insurance. The cafeteria workers union took the case to court, at their own expense, and won. This set a precedent in New York State: employees working for non-profit institutions are guaranteed unemployment insurance. Shortly thereafter, it was passed into federal law. The two-year contract recently negotiated for cafeteria workers at Buffalo State guarantees wage increases and job security. Wages range from $2.75 to $4.00 per hour, and include increases of 30 to 45 cents, depending upon the job classification. All job openings must be posted so that employees can bid for them, before new people are hired. In addition, workers are laid off and rehired in accordance with job classification, meaning that someone can’t take another person’s job who is in a higher classification. There is no loss of seniority for sickness, accidents, or childbirth, up to six months, or longer if required. If employees with at least a year of work are laid off up to a year, they retain all of their seniority if rehired. Insurance supplied The union can intervene on behalf of an employee if the University attempts to discharge him or her unjustly. At Buffalo State/ there are three union stewards, elected by the members in each department, who take employee grievances of sole Buff State slates marathon Is your insomnia coupled with boundless energy? A cure to this affliction my be found at Buffalo State College this weekend. The State Titans Fraternity is sponsoring a 48 hour dance marathon beginning at 8 p.m. tonight and lasting through Sunday, March 10. The couple with the greatest dancing stamina will be awarded the grand prize, a well-earned vacation in Florida for two. The purpose of the marathon is to raise money for the Muscular Dystrophy Associations of America. Each participating couple solicits sponsors for their hoofing trek who donate funds for the number of hours the couple pledges to dance. Interested couples are advised to ask friends, local stores, and neighborhood bars to sponsor them. “Often,” said one of the maraorganizers, “a local bar will sponsor someone if they wear T-shirts with the bar’s name imprinted on them or the bars will arrange to have something like three cents off every beer sold one night to go toward sponsoring a couple.” Couples may sign up between 6 and 7 p.m. on the first floor ofthe Buffalo State student union tonight. To enter, a couple must have solicited at least ten dollars from sponsors which is payable when they register. In case of a tie, the first prize will be awarded to the couple which raised the greatest amount in donations. Couples may punch in and out of the dance floor for any amounts of time and for the die hards, there will be two 15-20 minute mandatory breaks on Saturday and Sunday mornings. There will be a band and refreshments around the clock as well as other entertainment to raise donations. For instance, last year one student was given a certain amount of money for each goldfish he would swallow (he managed to gulp down eight) and the band drew in more money by performing in their underwear. There will be prizes for every couple that enters and the dance floor will be open to all spectators. For more information call 862-6511 or stop by the Student Union at Buffalo State this evening from 6 to 7. to the management. The union contract at Buffalo State also states that any work done over eight hours a day, is to be paid time and one-half. From one minute to 30 minutes overtime will count as 30 minutes overtime pay. If an employee is called iii, and Then sent home, he will receive four hours pay. If they begin work and are sent home, they receive a full day’s pay. Employees get eleven holidays a year with pay, and get double time for working on any holiday. One sick day per month is given with pay up to ten days per year. One year of service gets two weeks paid vacation. Five years gets three weeks, and ten years gets four weeks. An insurance plan, paid in full by the management, will go into effect July 1, 1974. Uniforms and meals (one every four hours of work) must be supplied by Buffalo State College. The union is requesting that students support their cafeteria workers in the organizing drive here. The union, local 66, can be reached at 890 Main Street, Buffalo; 882-4012. All calls will be kept confidential. Working to increas awareness ofrails In an effort to improve the quality of rail service in the upstate New York area, a group of concerned riders have banded together to form the New York Association of Railroad Passengers. The group’s twofold effort will be directed towards “increasing public awareness of the importance of railroad passenger service,”, and overseeing the management and maintainance of rail lines in the Amtrak system. “We are particularly concerned with service in the upstate New York area where np direct connection can be made tb Cleveland, Chicago and points West or to Boston and the New England region.” Many of the passenger lines fell into disuse during the years when the nation’s railroads attempted to discourage passengers from taking the train because it was an unprofitable enterprise. The line to Boston for example was terminated when an eleven-mile stretch of track was destroyed. The groups intend to put pressure on Amtrack to channel its increased profits into service improvements. They are urging the public to write their congressman, Transportation Secretary Claude Brinegar or Joseph Schmidt, Amtrak’s director of Planning and Development, letting them know the need for increased passenger service in this area. The Upstate New York Association of Railroad Passengers is located in Rochester, P.O. Box 6608, River Campus Station. UAB ATTENTION!!

One can only suppose surely not, if the that this "effort" has not yet begun production they are dishing up this month is any indication of the project's progress. The menu through March 24th features There's A Girl in My Soup. Directed by Stuart Bishop, it is a bland and overcooked and stringy. It's about as tasteless meal crude as a Big Mac, without the Mac's graces of being fun and inexpensive. Furthermore, it lacks any nutritional value and, to complete this rather gastronomical analogy, there is an unpleasant aftertaste bordering on indigestion. Soup is a comedy (Hmmmm. ..) about a vain American gourmet in England who gets involved with a youpg and incidental girl to the amusement of his editor/friend and the chagrin of her linoleum - — layer/boyfriend. ’ these days of “free love," there isn't even that any more. Frankly, the play lacks wit; only very occasionally will some peep through the dumb, soupy lines. In speaking of love affairs, the star posits; "It’s better to end [them] with a bang than with a whimper." Admittedly, it is a little crude, but it is the only line that even approaches wit in the entire first act. Given some sensitive acting performances, the play might be moderately successful. Low key, dry portrayals could have beefed up this thin soup. Having been a popular performer for many years, star Van Johnson must have instinctively sensed that something was wrong with the writing. Instead of trying to find a way to make the play work as a stuffy comedy, Johnson chooses to abandon it altogether. Whatever he may think he's doing, he is definitely not playing the role of food expert Robert Danvers or any other role, for that matter. In fact, he is not acting so much as he is simply appearing. Condescending, as it were, to show himself to the Buffalo yokels; strutting like a comic ostrich allowing the sparrows to marvel at his famous feathers. He young, sunny funny-man, but now it is only unattractive. And considering that he's not all that popular anymore (in spite of the huge ticket sales], a little sad. His years of experience do give him some sense of character, though. At one point, he is to cut up bread, and he slices it in small, neat pieces just like a food expert might. But when we're reduced to having to compliment Van Johnson on his bread cutting, then . . . well, that is sad. As Marion, the girl in the soup, Vicki Kaywood cares almost as little about the play as Johnson does. Marion is supposed to be fluffy and puffy and light and sexy, as well as intuitively discerning. Kaywood is just too labored and studied. She doesn't seem to realize that she's playing in a small, intimate theater. In her ponderous portrayal, a hideous grunt passes for characterization. The most offensive actor that I've seen in a long time is Christopher Burgess as Marion's hippy-boyfriend. His moves are so broad and exaggerated that you'd think he was either doing bad mime or a show for myopic children. From a purely technical standpoint, this British accent is either so thick or so poorly-contrived that he is usually is vain. incoherent. Wrong vein Once again, we've got to be careful. The character Robert Danvers is vain, but that is not what I am objecting to (although vain characters often give rise to cheap, easy laughs). What is offensive is Johnson's pompousity. He is convinced that he is more important than the play or, to extrapolate, anything else. An instance of his vanity comes to mind. Twice during the evening, he drops his drawers, revealing gaudy undershorts. The point is to show how vain Danvers is. Fine; a little corny, but let that go by. What Johnson does, then, is to crank his neck around, look straight at the audience, and raise his eyes to the ceiling. He is letting us know that he is not really vain; that this is all in fun just a play, you see. Really, he is saying, he's much more you're too vain to loveable than Danvers. Damnit, Van portray vanity. The thought of an audience believing anything bad about you is just too much for you to bear. And that gala bowing display at the end milking the audience's applause way past their endurance was so embarassing. The menu says soup and we get ham.

When Moak had the small role of a bishop in February's production of Flint, I praised him and hoped he'd get a bigger role next time. As Danver's editor/friend, Andrew Hunter, in Soup, Moak gets a chance to show us something of what he can . do. Although the character is practically invisible for the two acts, Moak single-handedly almost saves the third from the painful acting of Burgess, the over-acting of Kaywood, and the non-acting of Johnson. Those cheap jokes in the dialogue he converts to just-audible musings; little asides to himself, throw-away lines. He shows us he cares about his role he's thought it through in terms of the play as whole. Bob Moak as Andrew Hunter is absolutely charming* Of course, in a two-hour play, a single performance can even not redeem the rest. It's hard to imagine anyone liking this play. Only a the most philistine middle-brow she would get to see fanatical Van-fan might be happy Johnson in the flabby flesh. If you go to Studio Arena during March, that's the most first — — — — you can hope for. April brings Moliere's The Miser, starring Donald Moffat and directed by Warren Enters. �/ Stere* $ense by Mark Tobak "A/B test" is the standard term used tc refer to a direct comparison of two audio components, such as two pairs of speakers, two cartridges, or two amplifiers, where all the other variables, that is, the other components, are held constant. An A/B test involves listening to one component for a time and then switching, instantly, (through amplifier controls or a separate switching device) to another component. A primary point in insuring a fair andunbiased A/B test is to audition components at identical volumes. It is one of the peculiarities of human hearing that in choosing between two reproduced sounds, the louder sound is consistently more appealing to the car, assuming there are no large differences in frequency response or distortion levels between the two sounds. This means that if you simply switch from speaker to speaker in random comparisons that it is likely that the loudest speaker, that is, the most efficient one, will sound the best. Limit: two The only way to overcome the problem of differing efficiencies in speaker auditions is to listen to only two speakers at a time (a wise precaution in any case) and reset the volume control on the amplifier so that each speaker produces a similar sound level. It is important to note that this same problem can occur when comparing phono cartridges, which have differing output levels. Variation in input sensitivities and output levels can also effect matchings of pre-amplifiers and amplifiers, tuners and pre-amplifiers, and virtually any other kind of component combinations. Again, the only way to be sure of a fair comparison is to maintain a standard sound level. Another point that is related to efficiency and output/input level variation is the more general problem of compatibility. A component that is an excellent design on an individual basis and is a fine choice for some kinds of audio systems may not be right for other systems. For instance, the Audio Research power amplifiers are the best units around for driving electrostatic speakers, but will sound loose and muddy in the bass region over most dynamic models. Finagle In retail demonstrations, a dealer may purposefully mismatch components in an effort to play down a low mark-up item and push another product he is more anxious to sell. For instance, a dealer who wants to push a highrefficiency house brand speaker over a low-efficiency AR model might compare them using a low power receiver to insure that the AR speaker would sound unimpressive. A much more simple method of prejudicing the customer is through the subtle use of speaker placement. Most audio dealers have several shelves of speakers across the length of one wall of their showrooms. The average customer is not aware that in any such setup there are favorable and unfavorable spots to locate a pair of speakers, not only in relation to each other, but more importantly, in relation to their placemetn along the wall. For instance, placing a bookshelf speaker on the floor will make it sound boomy and bass-heavy. Corner placement will compound the problem. Locating the speaker far from ear level also dampens the high frequency response. A bookshelf speaker on the floor sounds (and even looks) small and distant. A customer must kneel to examine the speaker, or he may not even notice it at all. Salesmanship? Locating a bookshelf speaker at shoulder level, or just below shoulder level, has exactly the opposite effect. The customer sees the speaker straightaway. It looks bigger and more impressive, and inevitably sounds better, too. The tweeter is closer to ear level and the trebel range of the speaker appears more open and clear. The bass seems natural, not boomy. The overall sound is big and full, projecting at a customer's face and chest, rather than his feet. Not surprisingly, the glaring differences between floor and shoulder level placement tend to draw attention away from the former and translate directly into sales potential for the latter. This placement factor is used by many dealers to push their high mark-up speakers at the expense of heavily and readily discounted models that do not offer a large profit-margin. This means that house brands and price-controlled lines usually get the best spots on a dealer's shelves. A place for everything The floor and corners are usually reserved for AR, KLH, and three extensively discounted brands, which have not, incidentally, been associated with "push money." • A much more blatant technique used to play down speakers in the AR and KLH sphere is employed by a few less scrupulous dealers. That trick is to turn down any mid-range or tweeter controls on those speakers so that they sound dull and unimpressive in auditions. This is a point that must always be considered in any retail showroom. Check the controls at the rear of any speaker you audition. Don't merely look to see where the controls are positioned, but turn them back and forth to make sure they are operative, then set them to the mid-point positions. Choose a higher setting if you prefer a brighter sound. In general, the only way to insure a valid A/B test is to weigh and check each of these factors for yourself. Don't count on the dealer to balance an A/B test in favor of a fair and unbiased audition. Dynaco, Page fefi'.' Tb« BpSOtPum . Friday, 8 March* 1974 Asimov The uncontrolled authorin a world advancing to sci-fi If a little green man asked to see our leader and was taken immediately to the Oval room, where he was filmed and recorded (these films and records being functional and not taped over), and finally, if then and only then Nixon released these tapes would Isaac Asimov believe in extraterrestrial life. Such skepticism may seem peculiar for the author of such science-fiction monuments as /, Robot and The Gods Themselves but it does point out the complete rationalism of this man. His rationalism is so consistent that he refused to view The Questor Tapes and WestWorld because these films violated the laws of Robotics set down by Asimov. Machine does not knowingly hurt man. Isaac Asimov spoke at the recent Star Trek Convention where he defended Trekkeies, Science-Fiction, and himself. Always refusing to travel by plane, he now cites the energy crisis as a reason to avoid Buffalo. He attributes the crisis, as he does all crises, to the "spirit of nationalism." It was nationalism that turned the space program for a scientific endeavor to a race for the moon. It was nationalism that separated the world into territories, propagating war, famine, poverty and other unpleasantries. He sees science-fiction as a response to the necessity of world government. — Who's who? Some people do not know who Isaac Asimov is. Asking him about his childhood offers little help, for he replies: "I was a snotty little kid; I was Harlan Ellison before I grew out of it." Looking into his work doesn't do much either. One comes across pure science books titled Understanding Physics and of his biochemical background he says, "I decided to get a PhD in chemistry, so I did." Then, of course, he does write science-fiction such as the Hugo winning Foundation Trilogy, beating out The Lord of the Rings. Asimov celebrated his hundredth book a few years ago and is now quickly closing in on his two hundredth. His threat to society is: I plan to continue writing until civilization crumbles under me," Opus 100 was a collection of excerpts from his past 99 books. One is able to visualize Opus 200 quite easily. Starry-eyed Knowing Isaac often becomes an infatuation, living in such underground organizations as The Isaac Asimov Appreciation Society. Many people are U.6. sss All Veterans Are Welcome! interested in what he has to 'say and often they ask him cosmic questions, such as “How will the world end?" and they expect an answer. Asimov, undaunted and with thunder in his voice, replies: "Not with a bang or a whimper. With a crashing falling down the stairs." After discussing such powerful topics as the fate of the world, Asimov's attention is drawn to Woody Allen, whom he describes as "a rotten actor." The role he plays; "that's him!" Unofficially, Asimov was consulted for the Sleeper screenplay, which he approved and then sent to Ben Bova, who took over as advisor. Isaac's refusal to be paid for the Sleeper work was due to his self-proclaimed lack of visual — acuity. Primarily concentrating on the written word, does not release him of the problem of his work getting out of hand. The Gods Themselves originally began as a short story and ended up as a full length novel, winning the Hugo award in 1973. According to Asimov, the uncontrollability of his writing is comparable to technology. When fire was first discovered, so was arson. He recognizes man's hand in technology and deplores news articles which state that a car went out of control which is to say that the car went mad. — Didactic Isaac Asimov has long maintained that science-fiction literature can be a successful and inspiring teaching device, which, most likely, he put to use as a professor at the Boston University School of Medicine. He uses this same idea but now attacks it from a different position to explain why the number of science-fiction fans has increased. It is his opinion that the world is now being educated into science fiction through our technological advancement. Now that more people are reading SF, more will be encountering Isaac Asimov people productions which he will have to supply on a continuing basis. It’s the world vs. Isaac. Despite many idiosyncrasies, Asimov is known and loved by all those who meet him. His unique personality and powerful wit does not lend itself well to print, which is not an apology for this article but is a simple fact. His modesty is overwhelming and of his literary career he says, "I decided to write stories, so I did; then I decided to write novels, so I did; then I decided to write books on science, so I —Stanley Harper did.''And so he did.

Coalition Inter-College Relations Veterans Caucus UUAB TV program Yearbook photos Rm 260 Norton �John Brine s music becomes a sensation almost overnight .. . . John Prino is a 24-year-old country singer/composer from Maywood, Illinois. He is the perpetual juvenile as folk hero. His music either sounds like it has been around forever, or as if it's just come chugging up out of the dirt of a freeway median strip to remind people that under all the blight and bitterness. Middle America still has a heart a conscience, and a memory. "Your flag decal won't get you into heaven any more," one of his . , Kristofferson and Paul Anka, who later became his manager. Response from other artists (a reliable index of impending superstardom) has been enthusiastic. Johr\ Prine songs have been recorded by John Denver, Joan Baez, Kristofferson, Carly Simon, Bob Dylan, Bette Midler and last, but not least, Jackie De Shannon. "Just like discovering Dylan," people keep saying. The comparison is inevitable. John has the same lonesome hound-dog way of delivering a song that marked much of Dylan's early work. The voice bleeds with honesty, and when Prine sings "most of me is sunny countryside," you believe him. Poet??? The tag "protest singer" may be too harsh for Prine. He is, like all good poets, writers, or whatever One calls them, a keen observer. He seems simply to be observing and reporting on events untreated by most pop musicians for some time. Some of the best times, John recalls, were in Maywood when his father put the family’s old Zenith radio, cracked and taped, in the window so it could pick up WSM Nashville. John and his three brothers grew up listening to Jimmie Rodgers, the Carter Family, and Hank Williams,. John's father and ■grandfather had come North from Muhlenberg County, Kentucky to find work. Prine's grandfather knew Ike Everly and Merle Travis and used to sing and play guitar with them back in Kentucky. Sitting in the Atlantic recording studio on Broadway recently, John reminds one of a healthy Montgomery £lift. The gentleness is there, the unfathomable vulnerability. He drinks a Heineken's and watches his brother David add a country-style harmony track to a song John recorded earlier in the day. The two used to sing together in the family parlor. Now they are surrounded by expensive equipment and expert recording technicians, but the principle remains the same. No satire here John Prine's songs fuse two of the strongest currents flowing in the U.S. today blue-collar loyalty to the idea of America, and the activist rejection of the status quo. His voice speaks to people who have been cheated and demoralized in ways that don't penetrate skulls like Archie Bunker’s, but Prine is a real person, not a satiric Coffeehouse Exhibition of good music on campus Tonight and tomorrow night the UUAB Coffeehouse will be presenting two of the finest traditional folk performers around: Gordon Bok and Margaret MacArthur. Gordon Bok, born in Camden, Maine, started working the local fishing boats at an early age. He's been playing guitar and singing since he was nine, and his travels have brought him in contact with the music of many lands, as well as his native New England. Most of Gordon's life has been spent on or around ships, including Pete Seeger's Hudson River sloop Clearwater, on which — hype. Prine fits into the tradition of artists like James Dean, Brando, and Dylan part child, part seer, part victim. He sings a song called "Late John Garfield Blues," and friends of the actor say he reminds them of Garfield. In "Rocky Mountain Time," he writes "I'm too young to be where I'm going/But I'm too old to go back again." John Prine's appearance at last year's spring Folk Festival highlighted a weekend of fine music. For those who missed that musical event, John Prine will be appearing in Clark Gym along with Happy and Artie Traum this Saturday night, March 9 at 8:30. Don't compound your errors; see you there. -L.D.S. Gordon was the first mate. Gordon sings of the sea with affection and authority, much like someone who's lived the life of open spaces and sea spray. He's a fine his "handys," medleys of fiddle tunes adapted for guitar, are guitarist amazing. But he never uses his music solely to expose his virtuosity; whether they're about the sea or not, the songs he sings mean a lot to him. Whether live or on his three Folk-Legacy albums, Gordon's performances are always exciting and memorable. — — songs goes. "It's already overcrowded from your dirty little war." Four years ago John quit his job as a mailman to sing in a bar in the Old Town section of Chicago. Performing songs he's written and accompanying himself on guitar, John had to collect the cover charge from his audience between sets. He soon attracted some heavy patronage, including Kris Ozark tried and true If you attended the Buffalo State Folk Arts Festival, you're familiar with Margaret MacArthur and her songs of the Ozarks, Kentucky and Vermont. Mrs. MacArthur has lived in the country all her life in the Ozarks as a young girl, and in California, Louisiana and South Carolina as a teenager. She attended the University of Chicago and then moved to Vermont, where she and her husband live in an 1803 farmhouse they restored themselves. Her career as a folksinger began in 1951, when she had a weekly program on a Brattleboro, — Vermont radio station. She has the warmth and friendliness of folks who live in the country. The folk harps she plays along with her singing combine to sound the way angels must sound when they sing. But lest you think she's all sugar and no spice, she plays the meanest "Washerwoman" on a dulcimer I've ever heard. All you fiddle enthusiasts should come down to hear her jigs. Even though she calls them "works-in-progress," I'm sure she'd play one or two if you asked for them. Margaret loves her music and her audience; to be in her presence is to feel very warm and comfortable inside. As Gordon told us, "Any time it should work out that Margaret and I could make a trip together she's a good person and an unceasing inspiration I would be delighted for me." There'll be one show each night, starting at 9 p.m. in Norton's first floor cafeteria.

DIRECTOR 1st ASST. DIRECTOR 2nd ASST. DIRECTOR TREASURER Our Weekly Reader by Ellen Klauber Our 50,000 workers live in their uniform gray cell walls one mile beneath the earth, where we operate our own self-sufficient. Spectrum Arts Staff On a recent Wednesday night 8:30 on ABC, rhany of us were treated to the thrill of watching the role of insects in their natural habitats. If this ignoble sight turned your attention toward the largest force of life on earth, it served its purpose. Insects, with their incredible rate of reporoduction, spawn new adaptive generations and species as quickly as one can say Hellstrom Chronicles. Frank Herbert took this movie, with all its implications, and went one step further. If the regimentation and survival qualities of such insects as bees could be applied to "humans," what sort of race could this novel evolve? He I Istrom's Hive (Doubleday, $5.95) takes off from where Hellstrom Chronicles ends. Take the fictional character Nils Hellstrom, who made this "documentary" in the summary of 1971. An "insider" might describe his world as follows: Our brood mother was 1 rova Hellstrom, who came with the Puritans when the hive was first begun over 300 years ago. She left her son Nils as chief. His work is law, but he, too, is subject to the at Hive. Enter the Outsiders We lived in peace and preparation. Then the Outsiders came to penetrate our Hive. The Agency was after economic gain, but they found something bigger Project 40. They disturbed our underground haven. Those selected workers who were sent Outside to interact on their level could not permanently deter them not even the two Senators and one Congressman? We don't understand these Outsiders with their self-centered interests. Everything we do is for the unity of the whole. When we are no longer useful to the Hive, our bodies are taken to the vats to provide continued sustenance for the workers. We communicate through silent gestures; our language and emotions are derived from our chemically conditioned state of being. The Outsiders are so alien, yet they have qualities we must instill into our Hive through breeding. Otherwise, we are - factories, hydroponic gardens, laboratories, breeding centers, and the underground river which provides us with the necessary source of power. But we still need money. The that energy symbol film will add to our Swiss bank — accounts. Small-scale perfection What better subject than insects the perfect society? It's risky. All contact with Ousiders is dangerous. They are coming to infiltrate risky. All contact with Outsiders is dangerous. They are — coming to infiltrate Project 40. Although Herbert's idea of humans to an insect environment is interesting, this novel is hot a very profound piece of literature. In fact, compared to Dune, He!Istrom's Hive seems to be sadly under par. Originally published under the title Project 40 in Galaxy magazine, the story is light and amusing, but there is better science fiction on which I would recommend spending one's adapting valuable time. Of course, Herbert can't resist his little "quotes" of wisdon, attributing them to the various characters of the book or the original manifestos upon which the Hive's society is based. They do give insight into the purposes and ideas behind the plot, but somehow, unlike those in Dune, they are not as effective as they should be. Perhaps it's because the novel often appears trite with such lines as "The insects have taught us that the true winner in the race for survival is the last to finish that race." seems unnatural. The vats, whose slogan might parallel "Soylent Green is people!", represents an immortality of the mind, a preservation of the secrets of generations (otherwise known as by programmed happiness. If communication is a mark of a nonverbal basis for human existence would produce a better world. At the least it would make life simpler, but then, a community like the Hive which is struggling for survival only needs a minimal form of communication. Yet, even within its Tesseract walls, technology stirs. Thus, beyond this novel, I see a Hive which humanity, perhaps — AH CAC positions are volunteer.

Ever since the days of the Velvet Underground, Delmor Schwartz, the beat scene, we've been bombarded by illusions of junkie-death; greaseballs; fags; and Orange Julius stands (especially the one on 42nd Street) and it's getting boring word ennui seeps through the puffed-up veins of the junkie writer as he attempts to understand the megaphysics of the question "WHY?" it's even getting a little annoying, especially when it's so freeking heavy-handed no subtlety anymore, it's all bludgeon; smash 'n gash, thud. 7?So who needs Bruch Springsteen (hooknose) to tell us his timid tales of city sleaze. ???Who needs more of that kind of poetic plelusion. ????Who needs more preoccupations with junkies, slashed tires, dwarfs, and Puerto Rican teenage fine women in:out hubba, hubba: like who needs it. And the — — — — - title; lOcc (UK/London) "Oh look out you rock and rollers," first by David Bowie in "Changes," is an appropriate refrain to flash-on accompanying the fresh and inventive sound of this marvelous debut album by 10 cc. It's an album which delights and captivates the ear, while gently stimulating the head with its ethereal musical sensibilities. A whole earth catalogue of the major musical trends of the last decade in pop condensed and remolded into an eminently listenable primer bursting with unabashed whimsy, pleasing touches of naivete, and cynicism: coupled with a progressive nostalgia all nicely made manifest by top-flight arrangements and material. The question which immediately surfaces is: Who the hell is lOcc? It appears lOcc is comprised of four Englishmen with roots deep enough to reach back into the British rock and roll scene of the sixties. For people who thirst for credentials, lOcc members had previous ties to Wayne Fontana and the Mindbenders and scribbling ditties for the likes of the Vardbirds and the Hollies. lOcc approaches their music with a striking preference for strong vocal configurations. Their voices (with everyone lending his vocal chords to the test) are structurally tight and auditorily amazing. The fluidity and movement of harmonies often sounds like a cross between the Beach Boys and O.J. Simpson running wild through a porous defense. The band manages to sound as American as cherry pie perhaps giving credence to rumors that they came from Perth Amboy. The vocals contain a complexity that transforms them into intricate and viable counterpoints to the music the group lashes out. In this fashion, vocals are exploited to their full potential, adding a dimension lacking in so many contemporary bands. 1 Dec's musical sound is not sacrificed in this lush and intelligent use of vocal layering. They utilize a vast array of instruments, ranging from the moog and mellotron to the dobro guitar and tambourine, underscoring their compositions with a wholeness which revolves around a sparkling interplay of lyrics and music. There aren't many self indulgent, boring guitar solos. Most of them are solid, to-the-point arrangements, occasionally sprinkled with clean and economical breaks that enhance and heighten the tune without twisting or uttered — disfiguring it. The use of moog and mellotron is carried off with precision and utmost good taste. The electronic acrobatics decor the songs with a pleasing seventies facade, while the melodies sweetly betray their heritage to the golden days of the sixties. The tunes inked by the band, with the exception of two tracks, are of first-rate quality. They usher forth in humorous rushes and melodic soarings that call to mind the heyday of the Move and a pop innocence lost in mad dashes to musical r ■■».- “The E-Street Shuffle" starts the whole whizbang off nicely, but quickly slips into yawn-out when you realize that all street songs have been unimportant since the Ventures released "Slaughter on Tenth Avenue" years ago. This shuffle is like watching a dead junkie get beat to death by a band of roving teenage toughs jus' fer kicks, man I "Wild Billy's Circus Story" is nothing more than a musical tribute to Tod Browning's Freaks. It's all about dwarf-fuck and hump-caress. Depravity for the sake of sensation. Yaaa-hooo. Terry Southern rock 'n roll. “Incident on 57th Street" is all about switchblades and Elmer Bernstein. Totally useless as Springsteen tries to strap on a Bernstein motif, and all we end up with is 7 minutes of concrete ennui. Meshed together in an attempt at sophistication with this mini-show is a sexist, racist statement called "Rosalita (Come Out Tonight)" Rita Moreno rock. Latin meat-beat. White man's macho. AH does aa-meeree-kan boys... Real Yeechoid stuff. The whole thing is supposedly brought to fold with the Gershwin-esque "New York City Serenade." Oscar Levant is turning in his grave. Who needs it? If ya want the City to serenade ya, just look outta the window at the L-Trains and figure out which ones are going uptown and which ones are returning from uptown. It's albums like this that make you wanna bring back the ovens and get rid of six million more. Power to the swaztika. Nazis, naa-zees, nat-zees. Jew boy go home. Golda Meir eats army boots. Go back to Asbury Park, Springsteen, you's a Jersey cow - — — — The Wild, the Innocentand the EStreet Shuffle sounds like an Anna-man-ya-na/Tony Quinn movie with a New Vawk accent. Leave the city alone, leave it to the mutated visions of the Dolls, Teenage Lust and Wayne County. These people understand decay. They bathe in it everyday. The music on this record is good enough, but anybody who still thinks that they can make it in this biz on music power ought'a get their lips sliced. moooooooooooo-on. Music is incidental bV its own admission. — rf/.j'i,' — —Joe Fembacher decadence. 'The Dean and I," for example, rocks with a fine melody and sublime lyrics. Hey kids, let me tell you how met your mom We were dancin' and romancin' at the Senior Prom It was no infatuation But a gradual graduation From a boy to a man Let me tell you while can The soda pop came free Hey sis one kiss and was heaven bound Now who would have guessed Milton's Paradise Lost Could be found? But in the eyes of the Dean his daughter Was doin' what she shouldn'a ough ta But a man's got to do The consequence should be Church bells, three swells, The Dean, his daughter and me "Rubber Bullets" is a jarring number with an overflow of humor and more than a bit suited for the socially conscious. The song zeroes its satire on the maltreatment of prisoners and the parochial / / / views expoused by society's Dirty Harry's. Well we don't understand Why you called in the National Guard When Unde Sam is the one who belongs in the exercise yard We all got balls and brains But some's got balls and chains At the local dance at the local county jail Load up, load up. load up with Rubber Bullets Load up, load up, load up with Rubber Bullets The songs also offer inexhaustible chances to identify all the divergent influences that are masterfully employed and then synthesized into their own unique presence. "Headline Hunter" trades off Ronnie Wood's guitar spits, and snarls against an imploring Harrison-like guitar prayer, thus bringing into focus the hypocritical, two-faced nature of a journalist with secret, ruthless ambitions. The album is magnificently brought to a close with a dynamically-built tune entitled "Fresh Air for Momma," which poignantly conveys the pathos and despair of people trapped within the American Dream. About the only place where the boys slip up is "Donna," a sophomoric spoof of the Beatles' "Oh Darling;'' and the Lighthouse-sounding "Speed Kills" which, while flashy, lacks the depth evidenced in the rest of the material. Otherwise, the musical panorama presented by lOcc resounds with bold and innovative shadings and an unfailing ability to write strong melodies with equally brilliant lyrics. If you take your rock seriously enough to laugh at it, and recognize an intelligent group functioning at the pinnacle of its professional potency, then lOcc doesn't just become a logical choice but rather a necessity. It is truly an album for all seasons. —C.P. Parkas �ED I j WANTED Streak together mattress, dressing table with chair, small cabinet, $65. Oee 834-4874, 831-2808.

Wright docs not look upon the year as a failure, despite the squad’s failure to qualify for post-season playoff activity. “No, I don’t think so {that the season was a failure),” Wright remarked. “Any time your team 18 games (the Bulls were wins 18-1 I-I), it’s a success.” ' Youthful inconsistencies Wright youthful recalled the problems: Bulls’ “We’re a young team. The inconsistencies had hopefully will be mining next year. We’ll be a more mature team, and, I hope, a more consistent team. I was very happy with the play of a lot of the freshmen, and they all stand to be important cogs in this machine,” added Wright. The ECAC playoffs will conclude this weekend, with the Division II finals tomorrow night at cither Vermont or Merrimack. Division I will hold their semifinals and finals tonight and tomorrow night at Boston Garden. Vermont, which crushed Army Sunday night, 10-1, met Massachusetts Wednesday night at their own rink. Vermont will host the championship game unless they are upset by Massachusetts, who would then travel to Merrimack for the title game. The Warriors whipped Salem State in the semifinals, 7-2, Tuesday night. Merrimack and Salem State had advanced to the semifinals via first-round home ice victories. The Warriors defeated Norwich 4-3, while Salem toppled Williams, 9-6. M assachusetts whipped 7-4 on Boston advance. State Boston ice to RP1 will meet Harvard and Boston University will face Cornell tonight in the Division I tournament. RPI gained the semis with a 7-6 upset of top-seeded New Hampshire, while Boston U. whitewashed Dartmouth, 8-0. Cornell vanquished St. Lawrence, 5-3, and Harvard drubbed Providence, 9-3, in other first-round action. Baby Bulls encounter end of season defeat The junior varsity basketball Bulls ended their season with a 71-65 loss at Buffalo State Monday night. It capped a long, frustrating season for the Baby Bulls, who finished 4-16, without a road victory. The game featured ten technical fouls with each team receiving five apiece. Buffalo guard Gene Henderson picked up the first when he failed to raise his hand after committing a foul, while the Bengals received their first for an illegal substitution. With 2; 10 remaining in the game, Henderson charged into the Bengals’ John Syty, and a fight erupted. When affairs finally quieted down, Henderson, Buffalo’s John Ruffino an’d Bengals Syty and Jim Conrad were assessed two technical fouls each and expelled from the game. Henderson claimed that he had been hit in the back of the head, and Bull coach John Hill indicated that he was provoked. “Gene’s been hit pretty hard in practice, but he’s never done anything like that,” Hill said. The contest was also plagued with “regular” fouls, as 44 were whistled during the game. Buffalo State wound up shooting 35 times from the charity stripe, connecting on more free throws than the Baby Bulls attempted. Buffalo forged a slim lead early in the second half as guard John Trigilio hit two consecutive jump shots and center Norm Weber added a three-point play. The Bengals came roaring back with eight unanswered points, led by both Hesse and Macklin, and they maintained their five-point margin the rest of the way. Saturday night, a depleted JV squad traveled to Rochester to lose to the Yellow Jackets, 77-73. Buffalo’s tallest player was 6-3 Scott Kovel, normally a reserve forward. “Kovel played well,” said Hill, “but he’s a forward, not a center. That’s what hurt us.” Henderson added: “If we would have had a big man, we would have won.” Two days earlier, Niagara Community College whipped the Baby Bulls 110-87 as Frontiersman guard “Trick” Lewis scored 32 points and handed out 15 assists to completely disrupt Buffalo’s zone defense.

York at Buffalo Colleges’ charter problem: no money for faculty by Larry Kraftowitz Campus Editor support,” he emphasized. “There will have to be some negotiating there is a moment of where the Colleges will temporarily be left hanging in the air,” agreed Jonathan Reichert, Chairman of the Faculty-Senate Colleges Sub-committee which wrote the new College Prospectus. However, Dr. Reichert felt the Administration’s involvement in the point How with the Colleges get chartered if they don’t have any faculty ? How will they get faculty if they don't have any money ? How will they get any money if they are chartered? These are some of the questions being raised throughout the University as the Colleges begin digging in for the rigorous chartering process. Because the Reichert Prospectus specifies that charters will be granted only to those units with significant faculty support. College members have been stepping up efforts to attract faculty in the past few weeks. Many College spokesmen have termed the situation “Catch-22”, because hiring a large number of faculty requires money that will be available only after each College receives its charter. Specifically, Colleges must now purchase “released time” so faculty can be compensated financially for the hours spent away from their regular departments. not Wipe out where limbo. . . chartering procedures would strengthen the Colleges’ claims for funds. “The budgeting process is a two edged sword because Dr. Ketter has to sign all the charters,” he said. “Once he puts his name on the document, the Administration will itself demand money from Albany,” Dr. Reichert asserted. Funding could be easier than is if Colleges “get the kind of student demand that is hoped for,” contended Academic Affairs vice-president expected Bernard Gelbaum. This would reduce the financial demand from other segments of the University and “everything would sort of balance out,” Dr. Gelbaum said. ‘intellectual disrepute’ Faculty-Senate Chairman-elect George “Buying released time will almost wipe out many Colleges as they now exist,” claimed Irving Spitzberg,' the new Dean of the Colleges. Funds could be obtained only by “unmaking allocations that have already been made," he said. Financing is difficult, Dr. Spitzberg explained, because the Colleges are presently regarded as “high-risk ventures.” While he hopes the Administration will respond “in good faith” to the Colleges once they are chartered, Dr. Spitzberg was concerned because the Reichert Prospectus does not exactly specify how even chartered Colleges will be funded. “That’s the real catch in the Prospectus. There is no necessary and logical relationship between chartering and budgeting,” he said. “1 can envision a situation where a series of Colleges will be chartered but left without a budget,” Dr. Spitzberg pointed out. Should this occur, a particular College would have the option of “coming back in six months” to sign the charter or “signing it now and waiting to see what happens,” Dr. Spitzberg said. “Chartered Colleges will have only the promise of being quality academic enterprises deserving of academic Hochfield does not think funding will play that crucial a role in obtaining faculty support. “The Colleges are in a state of intellectual disrepute,” Dr. Hochfield said. “The need to attract faculty (to get chartered] will kill of the Colleges because some will simply be incapable of attracting faculty,” he declared. Disagreeing with Dr. Hochfield, one College E instructor claimed several faculty had contacted his College to offer assistance in the areas of media, philosophy and speech communications. “The more radical Colleges could dig up faculty easily,” he asserted. However, he feared that having a significant number of faculty heavily involved in a Collegiate unit would “turn the Colleges into an alternative like arrangement for departments dividing the pie a different way.” The College E member predicted that the “active” Colleges “would still try to bring eminent community members as faculty “instead of radical faculty” so the Colleges could continue to “fight the issues.” Community people do not have any special right to teach in the Colleges “or anywhere else,” argued Dr. Hochfield. There has to be a sufficient number of faculty to undertake the particular teaching program of a College, he said. “If it’s a large program, then there has to be a large number of faculty,” Dr. Hochfield said. — Exploitation William Allen, professor of History and a member of the Faculty-Senate, said faculty would be willing to participate in College courses which were “responsibly organized.” He felt there had been many instances in the past where people in the Colleges had exploited faculty members. “If courses were cross-listed, departments would not mind allowing faculty to teach in the Colleges,” Dr. Allen said. “Each College is not quite sure of how much faculty support it can get,” maintained Elliott Smith, director of the New College of Modem Education. Mr. Smith said most of the Colleges have been actively attempting to get faculty involved by demonstrating the value of their goals and prior work, and by offsetting the negative publicity which has arisen from a series of articles that appeared in the Courier-Express. “If most faculty members really knew what went on in the Colleges, they’d support them,” Mr. Smith said. Women ’playingthe game’behind and beyond bars by Linda Moskowitz Feature Editor The realization that the problems of are only an extension and intensification of the problems all women must face whether they are in prison or not was a major focus of the discussion at a day-long conference on Women in Prison, held last Saturday at the Women’s Resource Center of the YWCA on Franklin Street. Included in the day’s events was a slide show, a panel discussion and workshops dealing with the various aspects of imprisonment. The conference was co-sponsored by the YWCA Criminal Justice Committee, the Buffalo Women’s Center, the SUNY-Buffalo Association for Women Law Students, and the Buffalo Chapter of the National Lawyers Guild. “Whether we wear the prisoner’s cotton uniform or a velvet pantsuit, we are possessions to be bought and sold. We are dummies to be laughed at,” said Marilyn Reynolds as she read the narration accompanying the slide show. The “prison of marriage or motherhood” is often little different psychologically, Ms. Reynolds commented, from being behind bars. women prisoners — — Statistics unclear The narration made clear that there are few accurate statistics regarding women in prison. One panel member claimed “we have no idea of the full number of women presently being incarcerated,” especially in county and city jails where the inmate populations are fairly transient. However, it is known that most women are either serving sentences of less than one year, or are waiting for trial in a county or city jail because they cannot raise the necessary bail money. Many are young and many are first offenders. Most women prisoners are poor and a member of some racial minority group. “Three quarters are black, Puerto Rican, Chicano, or Native American,” continued the narration, “and almost all are mothers.” The problems of mothers in prison are vast. Ms. Reynolds said that 80% of women in prison have children. Those children are usually put in foster homes, put up for adoption or sent to live with relatives. “Many women aren’t told where their children are,” the narration stated. This lack of knowledge about their children’s location and care is a severe strain for many women. Extended loss of contact with their children makes it more difficult to resume their active roles as mothers when they get out of prison. Pregnant prisoners “Kids are dependent on their mothers, and prisons have no effective way to hold families together,” said Sharon Krebs, during the panel discussion. Ms. Krebs spent 18 months in Bedford-Hills State Penitentiary and is now teaching a course on women in prison at the New School in New York City. “No one person is punished when a woman is sent to prison,” she said, referring to the suffering of family members when a woman goes to jail. Some women enter prison when they If they decide against option is available that if they must often contend with poor prenatal care and medical attention. After the baby is born, they are sometimes permitted to keep the baby in jail up to a year and are then usually forced to either place the child in a home or sign him or her over for adoption. The low level of health care in prison was a major complaint at the conference: “Medical care is as callous and indifferent as anything else in the system,” said Ms. Reynolds at the slide show. She then related a story of a woman who awoke to a needle of penicillin being administered to her in her sleep. When the inmate questioned the attendants, they told her it was for her gonorrhea. She replied that she didn’t have gonorrhea, and continued to argue with the attendants until they realized she was the wrong patient. are pregnant. abortion — American flags “Pap smears — are done only when —continued on page 8— *. ' • ~ �Admissions process for aspiring young doctors by Bill Kutchcr Spectrum Staff Writer Editor’s note: This is the last of a two part series on medical school and the admissions process. This part takes the aspiring doctor from his freshman year to the brink of the Hippocratic oath. Application to medical school begins as early as the junior year. Prior to that, the student takes the required courses and secures recommendations from faculty members. Required science courses should be distributed over several semesters to avoid an overburdening workload, possibly resulting in lower grades. Whether the course is taken during the day, at night or during the summer does not matter as long as the student earns a good grade. An excess of summer courses, however, might be looked at unfavorably by med schools. Letters of recommendation should be obtained whenever possible. Generally three teacher recommendations are needed, with two from teachers of required science courses. Additional letters can come from employers and other people outside the University. The letter should never be written by someone who only vaguely knows the student. M. Luther Musselman, chairman of University of Buffalo’s medical school Admission Committee said letters indicating little knowledge of or contact with the applicant can sometimes hurt him more than help. about the applicant. Her letter accompanies the other recommendations, to each school and is considered heavily by most medical schools. According to Ms. Capuana, appraisal interviews are presently booked into April. All recommendation letters should be submitted by August 31st preceding the senior year to assure prompt processing. The appraisal committee sends a maximum of five letters. To have recommendations sent, the applicant stamps and addresses State University at Buffalo envelopes to the medical schools. Envelopes can be obtained from Ms. Capuana’s secretary. Med boards Most medical schools require students to take the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT). Administered twice a year (May 4 and October 5 this year), the test is taken in May of the junior year or October of the senior year. Many people prefer the May test, so they can use their results to decide on which and how many schools to apply. The test consists of verbal, science, quantitative ability, and general information sections with a separate score reported for each. The verbal section consists of synonyms, antonyms, and analogies; the math is basically high school level with no calculus; the science contains biology and inorganic chemistry with a smaller amount of organic chemistry and physics; and general information includes questions concerning art, history, literature, music, psychology, philosophy, etc. Recommendations Letters of recommendation are kept on file on pre-med advisor Josephine Capuana’s office (105 Diefendorf). To start a file, the student fills out a Data Sheet, obtained from the secretary in 105 Diefendorf. The Data Sheet is part of a Committee Registration Packet which includes recommendation forms. Beginning in February of the junior year, the applicant should schedule an appraisal interview appointment with Ms. Capuana, who is also the pre-med appraisal committee chairperson. The interview is a short, relatively informal session, where Ms. Capuana formulates her impressions Success on this exam usually depends on review, whether through a preparatory course or individual studying. Studying word lists is good preparation for the verbal section and a thorough review of high school math (including algebra, geometry, logarithms) will assist in the quantitative exam portion. Studying inorganic chemistry and a college level introductory biology course is an adequate review for the science section. General information, according to many, is not very important. For this section, information assimilated over 20 years of life is generally enough preparation. It is extremely important to prepare for the Announcing the OPENING OF THE VAJRAYANA Restaurant serving Indian Cuisine 530 Rhode Island St >ff Richmond! - 886-8466 - Indian Groceries & spices available.

(S) NewVbrk Telephone ��f Colleges Dean weighs Prospectus their faculty on a part-time basis. The chartering process involves give-and-take by the Colleges and departments, he by Gaiy Cohn Campus Editor “The Reichert Prospectus creates an environment to get faculty back in the Colleges.” With those words, new Dean of the Colleges Irving Spitzberg commended the Reichert Prospectus, the recently-passed set of guidelines which will bring about a sweeping revision of the existing College system. Dr. Spitzberg described the Reichert Prospectus as “a document one can live with,” but cautioned that the new College guidelines could be used to “wipe out the important, crucial, radical prospective in the Colleges.” Observing that the Prospectus could be misused by certain Collegians, Dr. Spitzberg added that the document could also be used to give “approval to questionable educational enterprises.” ‘Catch-22’ With the current Colleges working to obtain charters by the January 1, 1975 deadline, a “Catch-22” loophole has emerged. To receive charter status, a College must have significant faculty involvement. However, the Colleges cannot receive additional funds to pay those faculty until they have been chartered. Dr. Spitzberg acknowledged this paradoxical situation, but said that certain steps could be taken by the Colleges seeking charters Specifically, Colleges should re-order priorities and undertake internal reallocations so that they may partially subsidize faculty members’ salaries, Dr. Spitzberg maintained. For instance a faculty member could have his salary paid partially by his own department and partially by the * Colleges. Dr. Spitzberg also said he would actively seek out faculty to donate their time, at least temporarily, so that Colleges may obtain charters. He said he would “go to the Faculty-Senate” and ask for interested faculty in certain areas. emphasized. Dr. Spitzberg noted that community involvement has been a major benefit provided by the Colleges. “The Colleges give University members and community people a chance to relate to each other,” he said. The articulation of the Dean’s role was cited as another strong point of the Reichert document. Dr. Spitzberg said he will assume the role of the “marriage broker” during the initial stages of the chartering process. Although he vowed to retain the best elements of each College by consolidating similar programs. Dr. Spitzberg nevertheless said that he would take a more detached role during the latter stages of the chartering process. He explained that the Dean is required to submit an independent assessment of each College to President Ketter, which will complement the recommendations of the chartering committee. Won’t impose views Dr. Spitzberg also plans to take an activist role in his new post without imposing his personal views on the Colleges. Looking forward to a “communicative, consultative” process by all elements of the University community, Dr. Spitzberg said he wanted to see the Collegiate Council (which will replace the Collegiate Assembly) become a “heterogeneous group process.” In any “post-industrial social system,” there are always conflicts. He explained. However, he said that he “enjoys a good argument” and was not “ulcer prone.” Dr. Spitzberg believes these factors will enable him to succeed where previous College directors have resigned in frustration. Last year, former Colleges Director Wayland Smith cited external pressure from the Administration and internal pressure from the Colleges as leading to his resignation. Turning ‘Marriage broker’ to weaknesses of the Colleges, Dr. Spitzberg said the current system is “very ingrown,” does not involve most students and faculty and views “everyone department as a Additionally, Dr. Spitzberg said he would go to the chairmen and ask them to contribute part of the threat.” Irving Spitzberg However, Dr. Spitzberg said that Collegians have had “some justification” for perceiving elements in the Administration and faculty as hostile to the Colleges. The Colleges should be a place where those who teach and those who are taught have substantial interaction in a continual learning process, Dr. Spitzberg believes. He added that the Colleges should be a place for “trying new ideas.” Assessing the Colleges as a whole. Dr. Spitzberg said that while there are some bad things, most of the Colleges have been doing “very good things." He added that the past positive contributions of the Colleges have been greatly underestimated. orld in education plo contrary to the “We’re in for a revolution in man’s affairs, above an educational revolution. The challenges of educate Coi/ncil. Man has been on the planet over two million yeai Only the last 8000 years are documented by history. Reaching back over these 8000 years, Dr. Full presented a synopsis of events that led to the education the masses. At the time of the construction of ti pyramids, the use of technology and knowhow w; centered on the Pharoah’s effort to prepare for h afterlife. With each successive Pharoah, there was increasing inventory of knowhow, commented Dr. Full' Finally, there was such an increase in technical capabiliti that people found they could provide for the afterlives all the nobles and priests in addition to the Pharoah, ai from there develop an exponential acceleration in tl accumulation of capabilities. At the time of Christ ai Mohammed, people finally realized that they could tal care of the salvation of everybody, Dr. Fuller said. 1 added that this led to the construction of cathedrals a* temples, symbolic of a stage of development, where peop began considering how to take care of their lives wh? they were living them. ? another word, gravity, by simple everyday experiences Watched growth of knowledge Citing personal witness to this exponential growth knowhow, Dr. Fuller, born in 1895, gave examples of technological developments that have occured in his lifetime. “I was three years old when the electron was discovered; seven years old when the first automoblie came into Boston; eight when the Wright brothers first flew; fourteen when man reached the North Pole and sixteen when he got to the South Pole.” Dr. Fuller, called “Bucky” by his friends, elaborated on his theory that over the ages reality has come to have more meaning. ‘‘We assumed that reality was everything that you could see, smell, touch and hear. You knew all about yourself. This concept was greatly shaken by Freud Mesmer who demonstrated that there were subconscious sides of behavior.” Moving in to the realm of the child’s world. Dr. Fuller in an anecdotal manner cast light on the frustrations of the natural curiosity in children. ‘‘When a child asks questions to his parents they respond: ‘Wait until you get to school.’ When they are in school they are told to wait until they get to college. This manner of specialized institutions for learning skills in a structured order is and such as falling out of bed and knocking his head. “The human being has to do all its own educating. You and 1 can lend our experiences and simplify them for the child to help him understand how we communicate with the proper words. We do not insert anything new in any child. Our educational revolution must move toward ways in which we employ the invisible world and how we can make information swiftly available to that young mind enabling him to coordinate what he is already experiencing. That young world is thinking at a level which we are not.” Commenting on the current energy crunch, Dr. Fuller said “There is no energy crisis whatsoever. Instead, there is a crisis of ignorance, fear, and leaving matters for the other guy.” The revolution is indeed an educational one. How quickly it can erase this fear and ignorance is a question of vital importance, concluded Dr. Fuller. ************ vets club All Veterans Are Welcome! MEETING: MARCH 8 at 5:00 p.m. AGENDA: /. Legislation 2. Community Day 3. Budget 4. Party child’s natural curiosity He cited the example of the father who comes home from a day’s work bringing with him whatever new knowledge he acquired that day. In those times the “Daddy” was the authority. Only he knew what was going on in the world about him, via direct experience with it. Now, Dr. Fuller said, when “Daddy” comes home, his children are telling him what happened in the news that day. As a result, children realize that Daddy is no longer the authority. “At Berkley in 1966 when dissidence made world news of what was going on in the educational system, we found that these graduates were born during the time when television sets were introduced into American homes,” Dr. Fuller said. “From this point on ‘Daddy’ really didn’t know what was going on, and we had a young world becoming very self-reliant. They found themselves dealing with the total earth, with a compassion for life all over that earth.” Continuing on the theme of the child’s ability to assimilate all sorts of knowledge about him, Dr. Fuller pointed out that an understanding of the child’s world is not dependent on knowing the words to explain their experiences. He gave examples of the child learning the meaning of “vertical” and “horizontal” in terms of today are quite unprecedented.” With these opening words, the famed architei inventor, mathematician, futurist and educator, Buckminster Fuller opened the first segment of a two p< conference on ‘“Emerging Futures in Educatioi sponsored by the Western New York Educational Servi U.6. —York 5.

Page three ��DITORIAL Catch—22 The Colleges are now facing the classic Catch—22 dilemma: they can't afford faculty until they become chartered, and they can't become chartered until they get faculty. This truck-sized loophole in the Reichert Prospectus is precisely how the document can "be used to sit on the radical Colleges." as new Colleges Dean Irving Spitzberg instantly perceived. While conservative Colleges like B and D can attract like-minded faculty from various science because they departments, the more progressive Colleges departments from regular represent such an alternative have a much smaller pool of faculty from which to recruit. A conservative economist is not going to teach a Social Science College course in radical Marxist theory. To require an alternative venture to subsist on conventional resources is to eliminate its hope of presenting any real alternative. Many Colleges have therefore relied heavily on professional and community instructors, but will the Chartering Committee accept them in lieu of Ph.D faculty? Community professionals add a much-needed perspective to the University, but faculty-supremacists like Faculty-Senate chairman-elect George Hochfield who feels community experts have no real place here in the land of hopes the Colleges will be unable to attract faculty fh.O's end will wither away. But faculty-dominated Colleges are no alternative to faculty-dominated departments. If the Colleges are to endure as an alternative enterprise, the Chartering Committee must be open-minded enough to recognize this. Liberal or conservative, every College needs faculty to get chartered. But they all face the same problem: poverty. Faculty members generally don't teach for free(at least not for long), and each College's tiny budget is less than one faculty member's annual salary. The Prospectus does call for an independent budget to enable the Colleges Dean to buy faculty for the current Colleges, but far more money will be needed than the Administration's pathetic offer of 1 Vi faculty budget lines for 12 Colleges. If the Colleges are not to starve for lack of faculty. Dr. before Spitzberg must fight for an increased budget now the were to develop Spitzberg Dr. But even if chartering. in teach the still be reluctant to faculty touch, would Midas Colleges because of the widespread belief that such involvement will hurt their chances for tenure and promotion. Certain departments have even told their faculty not to teach in the Colleges, clearly implying negative consequences if they did so. If the Colleges are not to remain a "high-risk” enterprise for career-minded faculty, department chairmen must positively weigh Collegiate teaching in tenure and promotion decisions, as President Ketter has often urged. The Faculty-Senators have been screaming loud and long for increased faculty involvement in the Colleges. But they will never reap the fruits of fully-funded chartered Colleges unless individual faculty members come forward now when they are most needed to propel the Colleges through the chartering process. More money, however, is sorely needed. If faculty members are to be a prerequisite for chartering, then the Colleges must be given the means with which to attract them. Dr. Spitzberg must fight for an increased budget; the Administration must provide substantial funds for the current Colleges to pay faculty; the Colleges must reallocate whatever money they have to recruiting faculty; the by department chairmen must encourage Collegiate teaching faculty and the promotion; counting such efforts toward themselves must get off their best intentions by actively becoming involved in the pre-chartered Colleges. By raising tuition to improve education, some schools have placed that education beyond the reach of most students. Similarly, the Reichert Pfospectus has raised the by requiring a substantial number of price of a charter giving the current Colleges any without faculty members their salaries.

Once upon a time, I believed that Women’s Sports articles could appear in The Spectrum Sports section, right along side the men’s.

Well, the season’s over tomorrow, and what have the women got to show for it? They have six wins, three losses, and a lot of pride, but, alas, little recognition by The Spectrum.

To the Editor. On Thunday, March 7, 1974 at 1 p.m. in Haas there will be a public meeting with President Ketter to present a list of demands formulated by the Coalition. At that time, Dr. Ketter will be forced to take a position on these demands. The Coalition began on February 5 when supporters of the Colleges walked out of the meeting.. Since that time the Faculty-Senate Coalition has sponsored two mass rallies. At these rallies, representatives from various student poups talked about the problems they are having in maintaining their position at this University. These include: cutbacks in assistantships and in programs, such as E.O.P; the attempts to eliminate radical or alternative views from the University; the harassment of Black Studies and black students on this campus; tuition increases; and insufficient support of necessary services such as day care. The Coalition formed after different groups realized that their separate struggles were connected. The attempt to “legitimize” the Colleges (i.e., co-opt them) is only part of the plan of the Administration and Albany to reorganize the University. If this plan succeeds, third world and working-class people will be eliminated from the University, and middle-class students will find it more difficult to pay costs or obtain financial aid. However, the people at the University are not only ones feeling the financial crunch. the Everywhere in Buffalo and the nation, people are feeling the effect* of inflation. In the supermarkets, in the gas stations, while paying the bills, people are becoming aware that day-to-day survival is difficult, and that earning a living wage is becoming harder. WHAT CAN WE AS increasingly UNIVERSITY STUDENTS DO? We are aware that President Ketter cannot alleviate all these problems, but we do know that it is in hi* control to respond to some of our concerns on this campus immediately. This will only be done if Dr. Ketter see* that the University community is demanding what we need. Come to the meeting with Ketter, take your part in the struggle to Save Your Education, And Your Life. Within the next two months, a bill will come before the New York Legislature asking for the repeal of the Consensual Sodomy Law (No. 130.38), Under this law, any persons practicing any acts of sodomy (oral-genital sex, anus-genital sex, etc.) are considered criminals whether they are heterosexual or homosexual. Although very few people are prosecuted under this law, it is the major barrier to obtaining Gay civil rights legislation, such as equal job and housing rights. When anti-Gay discrimination laws are introduced to legislative bodies, the lawmakers are reluctant to pass such legislation because under the Consensual Sodomy Law, homosexual acts are illegal (and, in the minds of some lawmakers, homosexuality equals criminality). If the Consensual Sodomy Law is .repealed, the criminal aspects of homosexuality will be removed, thus clearing the way for the passage of Gay civil Lounge, Campus I r i rights legislation. It is important to remember that minors and non-consenting adults will not be -affected by the repeal of this law, as these people are fully protected by other sections of the Penal Code, just as they are protected from heterosexual offenders. If nothing else, the Consensual Sodomy Law should be repealed on the grounds that is is an attempt by the State to define appropriate standards of private morality. As an attempt to repeal this law, a state-wide petition campaign has begun. The purpose of this petition will be to show that the people of New York State support the repeal of the Consensual Sodomy Law. We are asking all people, regardless of their sexual orientation, to sign the petition when it is presented to them. We also urge citizens to write to their State Legislators demanding the repeal of this law. Gay Liberation Front SUNY at Buffalo Dont censor advertising To the Editor. On Monday, The Spectrum printed a letter that criticized its policy of carrying advertisements from the United States Armed Forces and particularly the ROTC. I believe that any individual or organization should have the right to make their views known without discrimination or censorship. What Mr. and fundamental Jacobson attacks is our primary of free Our speech. constitutional right concern and fear here is that once censorship has begun, where will it stop? Who will decide what is suitable for publication and what does not “serve the best interests of the students of this University” as Mr. Jacobson defines the censorship which he would like to impose? Rather than repression, I would prefer to see Coalition on the Colleges rebuttal in The Spectrum. I urge you to continue your policy of printing ad* for various controversial organizations. Only in a totalitarian society is one point of view presented. The point I am trying to make is that when this newspaper, or any other newspaper, stifles our right to freely express our ideas and opinions, is the year “1984” that far off in the future? Of noo .nq T>nti jJ!b Howard Chubinsky Jacobson responds: I too believe one should have the right to make their views known. But The Spectrum is a publication of selected, limited readership.

In attendance were nearly one thousand students from 44 states each representing their campuses in the fight for higher financial assistance and the rights of all Americans to an education. “We gathered in Washington to educate the American people about our concerns for education, and to that prove that Gordon Strachan’s advice young people should stay away from is neither valid nor Washington appropriate today,” said Willis Edwards, a student from California who is chairman of the National Student Lobby’s board of directors. , - - Students in forefront Touching on what could be termed a “theme” of the conference, Mr. Edwards said: “When the American people did not understand the tragedy of the war in Vietnam, we as students told them. When the American people did not understand the civil rights movement, we as students told them. When the American people do not understand the crisis in education, we as and that is why we are students tell them here.” The student delegates felt they could actually make an impact on the formulation - of public policy in education. Mr. Edwards pointed to the success of two students being placed on their respective states’ board of education. He noted that the NSL was a key factor in successfully increasing federal aid to education by half a billion dollars, as well as helping to defeat last year the “McDonald’s plan” in Congress of paying students and youth 80% of the minimum wage.

Mr. Edward’s opening remarks, the delegates were addressed by Congresman Pete McClosky (R.,Cal.) who unsuccessfully challenged President Nixon for the Republican Presidential nomination in 1972. McCloskey ran on a platform that consisted mainly of opposition to Mr. Nixon’s Vietnam policy. Mr. McCloskey credited students with bringing about government changes in recent years in three major areas: the Vietnam War, civil rights and the environment, mostly because students have the “right opinions.” Th« license plate of this car typifies life in Warflington.

Mr. McCloskey urged students to “hold their Congressmen’s feet to the fire” and to have “the patience to follow-through” on their meetings with their representatives. Urging students not to be co-opted, Mr. McCloskey told them to, “retain a healthy degree of skepticism toward the responses of their Senators and Representatives.

The role-playing was followed by Bob Woodward, the Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter for the Washington post whose Bernstein exposed much of the White House cover-up of its involvement in Watergate. There was a certain “aroma” to the Watergate burglary, said Mr. Woodward, a professional Speaker as well as an excellent reporter. Noting that everyone had a fantasy about Watergate and how it would end, Mr. Woodward said he fantasized that more tapes containing a whistling noise would be discovered. President Nixon would then be called before the Senate Watergate Committee to testify about the mysterious whistling covering all the crucial conversations, and is asked to whistle. Mr. Nixon, it turns out, cannot whistle. The next day, Press Secretary Ron Ziegler makes a statement that the President was once able to whistle, but now he cannot. Mr. Woodward said he had some incriminating evidence he was going to publish concerning former Attorney General John Mitchell. He telephoned Mr. Mitchell to relay the information, and Mr. Mitchell said “Katie Graham (publisher of the Washington Post) is going to get her tit caught in a wringer.” Mr. Woodward condemned the national media for the job it has done on Watergate.

He pointed out how House majority leader Tip O’Neill changed his mind on the Vietnam War as a result of one person a student asking him a probing question about why he supported it. One week later, Mr. O’Neill held a press conference and reversed his conference, considered itself to be the most progressive region, also adopted a resolution supporting unconditional amnesty for Wednesday, 6 March 1974 On the left it Layton Olton, former executive Director of the National Student Lobby. On the right, it Arthur Rodbell, incoming Executive Director Woodward, who has pulled a pillar or two from the Nixon White House. The next day, Dan Rather, the CBS White House correspondent, spoke to the delegates about the burgeoning power of the White House, The White House press budget of $400 million is over $ 100 million larger than the combined budgets of CBS, NBC, ABC, AP and UP I, which total anywhere from $275 to $300 million, Mr. Rather said. This is the third or fourth White House that has increased its press budget for a “propaganda campaign,” Mr. Rather declared. Mr. Rather feels Mr Nixon was biased �president said: “We are not in a government by edict ‘there will be no recession’.” Mr. Humphrey condemned the Congress for not planning far enough in advance, and, by coincidence, for not adopting his legislation. The Senator had strong words regarding the manner in which the nation’s budget is prepared: “I want some of the people who prepare the budget to go through a hospital for the mentally retarded and wonder where the President gets the guts to veto a bill for — Congresswoman Balia Abzug mentioned the happiness her family fait whan aha won her seat in Congress.

When he and Mr. Nixon first met, he recalled, the first words out of the President’s mouth were, “We know all about you,” indicating some superficial knowledge of his background as a Democrat. Calling the President was “biased from the beginning,” Mr. Rather said. He carried “heavy prejudicial baggage” with him into the White House. He called Mr. Nixon an “attacker who attacks while he’s under attack,” an art at which Mr. Rather claims the President is a that.” The lobbying effort itself began on the fourth day of the Conference. Students were sleeping in the halls of Congress between appointments, having spent the previous night partying. They met with Congressmen and were extremely well-received. Their points generally were cogent, their statements supported, and their cause adequately represented. Commitments were received from -a vast number of Representatives in favor of increased funding for’federally-sponsored student financial aid programs. Rhetorical bullshit After the first hectic day of lobbying, a reception was held with numerous public figures in attendance. Bella Abzug spoke about the importance of seeking minority group representation in our elected bodies, and said the National Student Lobby was an excellent vehicle for making students voices heard. Congresswoman Yvonne Burke, a radical member of the Congressional Black spoke of the caucus’ imminent expansion to all 58 districts with a majority of black residents. Richard Vanderveen, recently elected to fill Vice President Ford’s House seat, spoke on the importance Caucus, Protective lobb in. Financial aid plans The National Student Lobby is an outgrowth of the University of California Association of Students. The California group was formed several years ago and it has has been at least as successful reportedly influenced the allocation of as its New York over $1 million — — counterpart, SASU, Association of the State Inc (Student University of New York) in representing students in V the state legislature. Last week’s conference was the third in as many years, the largest, and probably most productive. The National Student Lobby (NSL) is a permanent, registered lobby in Washington designed to “protect student interests.” It is student-financed and student-controlled, and coordinated by full-time professional staff who work with the student Board of Directors and student interns. The NSL plans to attack only those issues deemed important as determined in a referendum by the students at its member schools. (The State University of Buffalo is a member school.) In order to maintain its tax-free status, the Lobby must not support any candidate for political office, but can take particular stands on specific legislation and issues. Money, money, money The Lobby’s main purpose is to protect the financial aid programs currently available to students and to support new and better programs. The Lobby has gone on record opposing the “master.” Sen. Hubert Humphrey (D., Minn.) delivered a brilliant speech describing his and progressive nature. Mr. Humphrey said he introduced the first civil rights legislation in the 1940’s as well as the virtues first legislation for nationwide health care. Sen. Humphrey said he has introduced a bill to form a federally-owned and operated oil drilling and processing company, to realistically determine the costs of processing gasoline and home heating oil. Fools in Congress Mr. Humphrey, after a barrage of jokes and quips, finally began to discuss the issues of the day. “I was once asked,” he said, “why are there so many fools in Congress.

NSL has also had an impact thus far on retaining the youth fare for air travel. At the NSL conference last week, the students adopted a set of priorities with financial aid as the top goal. A lower was assigned to those issues which affect students as young persons in society, which include voter registration, youth fares, minimum wage, and so on. Also discussed were such items as impeachment, international affairs and the environment. The NSL conference adopted resolutions supporting the impeachment of President Nixon, supporting unconditional amnesty for Vietnam era draft evaders, and the right of a woman to choose whether or not she should bear a child. These three resolutions were all priority adopted by overwhelming majorities, o bjections that they would despite distort the priorities of the Lobby. The Lobby has a legislative and director, about 14 staff personnel, and about 300 member schools representing several million students. Ultimately, the Lobby hopes to obtain a broader membership base with greater representation. In three short years, it has become a group with similar clout to the National Student Association, an organization with an executive unusual history spanning 30 years. removing Mr. Nixon from office. Finally, Red Faucher, lieutenant governor of Alaska, said he felt political rhetoric was “bullshit” and then sat down. Sen. George McGovern, the 1972 Democratic Presidential candidate, closed the lobby conference with some thrilling remarks about the necessity for leadership from Congress. The Senator avoided calling for the President’s impeachment, presumably because he might ultimately be a juror in the case. But Mr. McGovern had harsh words for the President’s domestic programs and the Watergate scandals in general. There is a crisis in the Presidency, he said, and Congress has been negligent in its duties. Again, he showered praise for the National Student Lobby’s fforts on a group of students already exhausted and tired, but excited to hear their champion speak his pearls. Wednesday, 6 March 1974 The Spectrum Page seven . . �Behind beyond bars , S Prisoners who find themselves forced to participate in therapy often just learn to “play the game” to avoid trouble. “You learn how to make your points (with the prison administration],” said Ellen Butler, a panel member and former member of the Women’s Drama Workshop at Wende Penitentiary. Ms. Butler continued to necessary," Ms. Reynolds said. In medical practice. Pap smears are performed as tests for cervical or uterine cancer, and are usually a preventive measure. In many prisons, however, it seems they are performed only after a medical problem becomes obvious, according to testimonies women inmates. by The slide show included photographs of women at work in prison factories. Sewing criticize such programs for their failure; “Anyone who thinks this type of thing is successful must have been talking to the warden,” she said. is a major occupation in these shops, and one slide of women inmates making American flags brought an immediate response of shocked laughter from the audience. Other slides revealed women working with antiquated machinery, such as certain models of Singer sewing machines which the Singer Company no longer manufactures. This type of training is useless to inmates in terms of finding employment after their release. Wages, too, are minimal. Ms. Reynolds quoted the figures of 11 cents a day or $10 a month for some prisoners. Many women see no reason why prisoners are not paid minimum wage for their work, since their products are later sold outside the prisons. Be a lady’ The issue of job training for women prisoners was discussed by the panel; “Men get trained at something, women don’t they’re because of the laws of the land just discriminated against,” said panel member Carolyn Handy. Ms. Handy is the vice-chairwoman of a Washington half-way home for women, co-founder of the executive board of the National Black Feminists, chairwoman in prison study for the National Women’s Political Caucus, and is now employed by the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights. Ms. Handy urged women to demand passage of the Equal Rights Amendment to remedy this situation. Many women at the conference agreed; Prison life attempts to reinforce the passive role of women in society, who are trained at no skills other than domestic duties. ‘Drug-oriented society’ Drugs are frequently administered to prisoners in the form of sedatives and tranquilizers. Rehabilitation in prison is non-existent, declared Ms. Krebs: “Even the prison authorities will tell you we don’t know what rehabilitation is and we don’t often don’t know what type of medication they are receiving, she commented. , Prostitution The issue of prostitution received much attention at the conference. Marilyn Adams, a member of Art Without Walls, Inc., at Rikers Island Prison, an organization which provides art workshops for inmates, advocates the legalization of prostitution. Referring to drug users as well as prostitutes, she said: “These women are just earning a living, they’re not hurting anyone. from first-hand experience as ex-inmates. Primary tasks of women inmates consist of cleaning, sewing especially and those cooking. speaking Vanity and attention to external beauty is encouraged. Behavior modification When women reject these standards and behavior patterns, and are open in their rebellion, they run the risk of being labelled crazy or mentally ill, and are referred for psychiatric care. Many of these women, who cannot accept the white, middle-class values with which they are being indoctrinated, are often “arbitrarily transferred to mental hospitals,” said Ms. Reynolds at the slide show. One panel member viewed psychiatric therapy and behavior modification techniques, as opposed to physical punishment or beatings, “as the most effective weapon of the prison staff.” These girls shouldn’t time.” several be doing job. _ Women who had done extensive work Women are usually discouraged by with women inmates, as well as the prison staff from touching each other. ex-inmates on the panel, recognized the Lesbian women also have a harder time hostility many white volunteers feel accepting the social values and philosophy directed toward them by black prisoners in encouraged by the prison administration, predominantly black institutions. But they which is usually geared toward also noted that such hostility is directed heterosexual women who will function as toward all outsiders, of any race, since there are so few non-inmates these women part of the nuclear family unit. In discussg the prison staff and come in contact with whom they can trust. economic factors of prison maintenance, There is a process of “proving yourself” Ms. Butler pointed out that “whole towns which a volunteer must go through with the prii of thf staff lives in the town where the prison is located. She also noted that women guards are paid less than male guards. Sadism It was generally felt that some guards are sadistic, but the majority are “just poor people trying to make a buck.” One woman said the sense of power which guards have “is so corrupting, it changes your head, it’s not good for you.” Other guards, it was explained, foster a relationship of maternalism and childish dependency with prisoners. Ms. Ms. Adams explained how from time to time, city governments will initiate clean-up campaigns and arrest all known prostitutes in a given area. “Whether you’re doing anything or not, if they have a clean-up, they just sweep them up,” she said. Other worsen complained that prostitution laws are geared toward apprehension of the woman, rather than the pimps and customers or “johns” who are practically all male. Ms. Butler said: “The john doesn’t go to jail, the pimp doesn’t got to jail, the prostitute does.” If a prostitute is working for a well-known pimp with a large business, who may have influence in the courts, Ms. Adams explained, her chances for imprisonment- are less than if she is a streetwalker in business for herself. She advises that women put pressure on politicians to “get these laws off the women prisoners after they are released. It is hard for a woman to find a job if she has no skills, and if she is a mother she must worry about day care for her children. Many women simply turn to prostitution to survive, since they can often make more money in one night streetwalking than they can all week at a legitimate unskilled prison. even try anymore, we just try to provide custody,” she explained, “and one easy way they can do this is with drugs. The quieter a prisoner is, the happier she is.” Describing the prison experience in general, Ms. Krebs said; “You’re drugged out of your mind, you’re separated from your kids, when you come out you’re completely disoriented. Prison teaches you only how to live in prison.” She added that she is not at all surprised at the high recidivism rate. Ms. Handy complained that some women leave prison with drug habits they didn’t have when they came in. She blames this situation in part on our “drug-oriented society.” Another problem is that prisoners — “They teach you how to be a lady,” women repeatedly commented, ... —continued from paga 1— %M books.” Lesbianism was also discussed by the women. There are two types of women who become lesbians in prison, several panel members reported. One type is the woman who is homosexual ‘‘on the outside.” The other reason women turn to lesbianism is due to the isolation, loneliness, and lack of physical contact in Butler commented on the new emphasis to recruit minority guards: “It doesn’t matter what color they are, they’re guards.” She discussed the ambiguous black guards have with black inmates. While they understand the past environment and problems of an inmate, they are still part of the system and feel “We’ve made it, so can you,” according to Ms. Butler. All the panel members agreed on the need for more outside volunteer groups to work with women in prison. It is advantageous for anyone wishing to initiate such a group to have a university, church, or some other well-known established organization behind you, Ms. Adams advised. “This will give you some weight,” she said, when political manuevering becomes necessary. relationship Volunteers needed Organizations are also needed to help “Do-gooder attitudes won’t wprk." said one woman, who felt that if a volunteer is “for real,” she will succeed. “White women have to stop feeling guilty about being white,” said Ms. Handy. “We have to relate to each other as sisters, as human beings.” Newsletter formed Randye Retzkin, a student at this University who worked extremely hard helping to coordinate the day’s events, felt the conference was highly successful: “There was a lot of good energy, a lot of women who want to wdfk, Sftd we’re happy about the day,” she said. By the end of the conference, several women decided to organize a statewide newsletter concerning women in prison. The Women’s Jail Project in Rochester has agreed to help fund the newsletter, and other sources of funding are being sought. This project was initiated at one of the afternoon workshops which dealt with communication networks. Other workshops at the conference included health care, behavior modification, gayness in prison, legal aspects of imprisonment, making time on the inside meaningful, and the effects of imprisonment. If anyone is interested in the issue of women in prison, there will be a meeting on Thursday, March 7, 8:00 p.m., at the Women’s Center, 564 Franklin St., to discuss what further action can be taken to help women prisoners.

Spectrum Staff Writer The basketball Bulls closed out an exciting but disappointing season in a like manner Monday night, dropping an 89-87 double overtime thriller to cross town rival Buffalo State at the Bengals gym. The loss brought Buffalo’s final tally to five wins in 25 attempts, a complete reversal of last year’s 16-8, while the Bengals closed out their campaign at 8-17. “They haven’t quit all year,” remarked Bull mentor Leo Richardson, “and they didn’t quit tonight.” The Bulls played co ra e- f rom-behind ball throughout the contest, and it looked like the end of the year with one minute left in regulation time and Buffalo down, 69-62. Senior Ken Pope, playing his last game as a Bull, didn’t want to close out the season a loser, and teamed up with junior Darnell Montgomery to pull Buffalo to injured ankle that kept him from first half action, took the ball from Pope with three seconds left and ‘did his thing,’ driving through the entire Bengal team to knot the score at 71-all as regulation! time expired. The senior captain for the Bulls, seeing his last action along with Pope and Rayfield Goss, closed the game with eleven points and his career with 835, good enough for seventh place on the all-time scoring ladder, despite the fact that he played only two seasons. “His ankle is really bad, and 1 was hesitant to .put him in,” explained Richardson in reference to Brawley’s first half absence. “But he came up to me and said he was ready to play, so I put him in.” Brawley wasn’t missed much in the first half, though, as both and sophomore Montgomery forward Jim Randall played the best ball of their short varsity careers. Randall tallied on four of his five field goal attempts and contributed six rebounds before when two at 71-69 freshman center Mike Jones fouling out midway through the fouled out, sending State’s only second half. senior, Mike Bonds, to the line in Good competition a crucial one-and-one situation. “When people say you don’t have a good team,” lamented Goaltending crucial Bonds’ free throw rolled Richardson, “they only look at around the rim, and looked like it your reconrd, and they don’t look within was going to drop through when Hickey forward Jay Bengal committed offensive goaltending, turning the ball over to the Bulls with :06 remaining in the game.

Sirica, the Washington Post reported Friday. The Grand Jury was going to indict President Nixon, the Post reported but declined to do so after Special Prosecutor Leon Jaworski concluded that a sitting President cannot be indicted while in office. The Grand Jury’s action came after the indictment of seven of President Nixon’s former White House or campaign aides H. R. Haldeman, John D. Ehrlichman, John Mitchell, Charles W. Colson, Robert C. Mardian, Gordon Strachan and Kenneth Parkinson for conspiracy to cover-up the Watergate break-in. The indictments by Mr. Jaworski, resulting from the Grand Jury’s investigation dating back to the summer of 1972, listed 45 “overt acts” by the former Presidential aides to cover-up the Watergate —UPI scandal. All seven defendants were charged with conspiracy, six were charged with obstruction of justice, two with perjury, and three with making false statements to the FBI or Grand Jury. — — Ehrlichman Haldeman lied The indictment accused H.R. Haldeman, the President’s former Chief of Staff, of lying when he quoted the President as saying “it would be wrong” to raise $ 1 million to buy the silence of the seven original Watergate defendants, which he testified to the Senate Watergate Committee last summer. This raised questions about President Nixon’s truthfulness, since Mr. Nixon endorsed Mr. Haldeman’s version at a press conference last August 22. Recalling a meeting where clemency was discussed, Mr. Nixon said he had told John Dean, his former counsel, “John, it is wrong, it won’t work.” Mr. Dean has testified that President Nixon had said at that meeting that “there is no problem in raising a million dollars. We can do that.” Mr. Nixon has conceded saying that, but said he added “it would be wrong.” ThesGrand Jury, which has listened to the tape of —continued on page 7— 1196; Michael tor: Doris Diaz, Nova: 1420.

Student problems with DUS advisors scrutinized by Jeff Linder Spectrum Staff Writer Are students at this University getting proper academic idvimmO .s- i-tNext week. Student Association (SA) will be distributing a questionnaire to students to get to the bottom of this question. The questionnaire is aimed at discovering student feelings toward their Division of Undergraduate Education (DUE) advisors. Two recent studies have probed the nature of DUE advisement. Charles Ebert, dean of Undergraduate Studies, conducted a study on academic advisement which produced four main “weak links” in the advisement '• ****** system: 1) Because the advisement system is voluntary, it is and therefore “lacks the follow through” “haphazard” which Dr. Ebert views as “critically important.” 2) Because of a lack of necessary funds, Dr. Ebert has not been able to “hire the type of personnel, both clerical and administrative, to develop a strong advisement staff.” 3) Few advisors have had professional training in advisement, so “the quality of the advisors is not as high throughout as it should be.” 4) Departmental faculty advisement and Division of Undergraduate Education advisement do not “mesh gears.” That is, departments have little communication with DUE advisors. Little confidence in advisors Another investigation, published by Ethos in mid-January, described the most common criticisms of students regarding the advisement process. The central criticism uncovered was that students have little confidence in their advisors. Forty-eight per cent of those polled said they had “little, but not much” confidence in the guidance received from advisors, while 43% felt that speaking with their advisors had been “unproductive.” Student Association President Jon Dandes commented that one of the greatest problems with academic advisors is . that there is little or no interaction between departments explained. If it becomes apparent that, an advisor is not getting and the DUE advisors. “Sometimes a department will for graduation without through to students and dismissal becomes imminent, DUE change their requirements notifying th^DUE advisors,” said Mr. Dandcs. “Advisors; must wait a year before The advisor actually leaves. This is just don’t, get the needed information.” Mr. Dandes was due to contract obligations,” Ms. Wynne explained. For unsure as to who to blame for this lack of communication: instance, one advisor was given notice of dismissal in “Advisors have to depend on hearsay many times because August 1973. He will not be leaving his post until August 1974; however, in the interim he has been assigned new the University catalog is innacurate. Sometimes it works, students. Robert Grantham, director of said sometimes it doesn’t,” Mr. Dandes explained. that this advisor’s assignment of students was only being “monitored” because of limited staff. Lack of information “Advisors don’t know departmental requirements so they can’t give proper advisement,” agreed SA vice Satisfied freshman Suggestions for improvement have been advanced by president Dave Saleh. The advisement system lacks information for students interested in career guidance, John Buerk, director of Orientation. He said that most degree alternatives and graduate school advisement, he freshmen, after their initial orientation, are satisfied with explained. “Students never become aware of the many the advisement system. But Mr. Buerk added that a “combination of advisors and faculty to provide an different programs available to them,” Mr. Saleh said. academic perspective would be best.” Cornell University to whether students are There was disagreement as getting proper academic advisement from the Advisement uses this program very well, he noted. Dr. Ebert’s report recommended that faculty advisors office in Diefendorf Hall. “Students would never like the advisement process just as they would never like a meal from each department be relieved of part of their teaching served by Food Service,” maintained Dorothy Wynne, duties to devote more of their time to advisement.

Page two The Spectrum Monday, 4 March 1974 . . �Universe Assembly ponders Ellicott’s future by Jeff Deasy Spectrum Staff Writer The future of the Ellicott Complex and discussions about changing the status of Campus Security officers highlighted Thursday’s meeting of the University Assembly. Speaking on the Ellicott Complex, President Robert Ketter explained that it was originally designed by a New York City firm to be the first facility constructed on the Amherst Campus, located apart from the rest of the campus. Dr. Ketter also expressed a desire to entice students to live at the Ellicott Complex by advertising such features as the “alive architecture.” The Univetsity will fill 1200 of Ellicott’s 3000 available living spaces next year. He added that the Complex is the only facility in Western New York that combines acadiemic and residential facilities in a self-contained unit. The Complex was designed to give the student “a variety of living experiences” and to include “spaces of privacy,” Dr, Ketter explained. It will include a 270-seat capacity lecture hall, a small group lab, a bookstore larger than the one in Norton Hall, a large rathskellar, library facilities with a book shuttle service from the Main Campus, an infirmary, a creative crafts shop, theaters, seminar rooms, 150 faculty offices and six cafeterias with 3 total capacity of 6000. The recreational areas include indoor game rooms and A-*’*' ,./* - |<V ,Mf If V 5 v ■> i, A; ’-/<*.> outdoor basketball, track and tennis facilities. These outdoor facilities may eventually be enclosed by an air structure or athletic bubble, Dr. Ketter noted. Dr. Ketter also announced that the following departments would begin preparing for a move to Ellicott; French, German and Slavic languages, Linguistics, Critical Languages, Spanish, Portuguese and History, However, all departments will eventually teach some courses there. Students who move to Ellicott will receive the same 10% housing reduction rate as students now living in the Governor’s Residence Halls. The price will be 10% more for a single, 10% less for a triple and proportionately less for six-person rooms, which may also be used as seminar "y rooms. been a marked improvement in the Campus Security’s overall operation, Mr. Dandes said. This was done through a raising of the educational requirements and a lowering of the average age of Campus Security officers, he explained. Two years ago, for example, only two Security officers had completed four years of college. Now 24 Security officers are graduates of four-year colleges. Additionally, the average age of Security officers has dropped from 38 to 32 years. Amherst bus When asked if transportation would be a problem for students residing at the Complex, Dr. Ketter replied, no. However, the decision as to how much bus service will be needed has not yet been made, since the amount of money to be allocated for bus service has not yet been decided. Dr. Ketter was also questioned about the possibility of closing the Governor’s Residence Halls. He replied that such a closing would be “virtually impossible,” but if no students chose to reside there, a closing would, in effect, take place. In other business, Student Association President Jon Dandes suggested changing the status of Campus Security officers from peace officers to police officers. There has The need to change the status of Campus Security officers from peace officer to police officer was suggested by Mr. Dandes. Such a change would make Campus Security officers eligible for retirement benefits and an increase in salary. It would also make Campus Security a more attractive field for those seeking careers and would retain the present Security officers, explained Mr. Dandes. The status change would not cause any jurisdictional change in Security officers’ power and would not affect the question of Security officers bearing arms. ! - ' . .. . More women cops Mr. Dandes also related the recruitment of a greater percentage of women and minority members to an “increased sensitivity” among Security officers. Mr. Dandes said he hoped the Security force would become “a model for the rest of the state .. . perhaps the entire country,” and that a “utopian situation” would result from his status-changing efforts. Four-course load asks departments to analyze credit values Ketter by Larry Kraftowitz Accusing the Faculty-Senate Executive Committee of “verbSI driubletalk” in its defense of the fouricource load, President Robert Ketter last' week called on the' academic departments to determine whether their courses were receiving the appropriate number of credits. In a letter to Faculty-Senate chairman Gil Moore dated February 27, Dr. Ketter said the committee had “failed to address” its response to the Academic Affairs Council’s (AAC) charge to investigate the possibility of a flexible system of courses, worth varied numbers of credits. A return to the system of granting “one credit hour for one contact hour of course work,” or the five-course load practiced at 1968, was also this University before proposed by the AAC, but rejected by the Faculty-Senate executive committee last month. The Executive Committee, convening twice since the AAC memorandum was released, issued a statement to the full Senate urging that “the current four-course load pattern be maintained.” Although the committee by qualified its request suggesting that the AAC develop a mechanism whereby each department could carefully analyze its offerings “to be certain that students are provided a intellectually honest reasonable and education,” President Ketter claimed the - published three week, on Monday.

There should be a wide 'degree of flexibility for each department to assess itself they must state the reasons for what they’re doing," Dr. Ketter added. Last spring, the A AC proposed that the current four-course load had led to a sharp decline in education as measured by - Graduate Record Examination (GRE) However, a Faculty-Senate scores. subcommittee studied the matter and reported last May that the four-course load should not be changed because it had not resulted in “a significant decline in the breadth or quality of the BA degree.” Besides quoting the GRE testing director as saying that comparative GRE scores “indicating nothing about the quality of undergraduate education,” the subcommittee criticized allegations that studentswere receiving only four-fifths of the education that they gleaned under the five-course system, “All such statements erroneously assume a 1:1 relationship between learning and class hours,” the report stated. However, the Faculty-Senate report did suggest that each department scrutinize its curriculum to determine an appropriate credit system for various types of courses. The AAC’s renewed suggestion to return to the five-course load took into account the surveys conducted by various department provosts heads and titch among cr stitucnts to determine their feelings on the four-course load system. In an interview with The Spectrum two weeks ago. Dr. Kettcr discussed at length the issue of credits vs. contact hours. He explained that.he needs a defensible system of credit-granting, “something I can fight for” at budget time in Albany. Dr. Ketter denied that the four-course load was being re-evaluated because students were not spending enough time in the classroom. “The Faculty-Senate is still hung up with four-course load as opposed to five courses,” Dr. Ketter said “For each course, it should appropriately be indicated how many credits is it worth and why,” he explained. The question was not how many courses a student chooses to take, but how much effort faculty members are putting in, Dr. t - Ketter emphasized. Dr. Ketter felt some faculty were “working their tails off” while others were getting “away with virtually nothing.” “I wouldn’t want them to have to measure up a yardstick, but at least to have something they can compare themselves to against something we . . . can use as an argument when we need more resources,” he maintained. A better method of measuring faculty performance has not been found. President Ketter said. Discussing claims that the four-course load has weakened the University’s claim for more faculty, Dr. Ketter said SUNY central administration was primarily concerned with the fact that faculty were meeting the same number of courses for fewer hours per week. He referred to a specific section of the Executive Budget which ordered this University to remove two nursing faculty members because the student/faculty ratio in nursing was too great. ‘That’s getting to be very specific, getting into a particular program,” Dr. Ketter claimed. “We must sell the people in Albany on the four-course idea so that we can go forward. If we can’t, we’re headed for absolute mediocrity.” The International Student Committee & The Institute of Intensive English present A TRIP TO MONTREAL March 19-22 (Spring Recess) Fare-$40: includes Transportation and lodging » ' No refunds made after paid reservation.

The Spectrum: Tenure quotas at the City University controversial. If 10 of New York (CUNY} have been very here apply for tenure, can all 10 people in a department get it? Dr. Ketter: If 10 applied and all 10 met the requirements, it is literally conceivable they could. One member of the Law faculty at Yale told me: Legal education in five years will be defined not by Harvard. Yale and Stanford, but by the University ofBuffalo and a few other places. You have a faculty that seems to be on the move, you have the capacity to add new faculty, you’re not tenured to the extreme. Yale is now 95% tenured. They cannot hire one more person, and the average tenure age is about 45. So they are tenured for the next 20 years. They may be very good at this moment, but they cannot help but go downhill. We have some departments that are as high as 80% tenured, but most of them run something around 35 to 50% tenured. We keep an eye on this. There are no quidelines, except the Carnegie Commission report that came out that said: Once you pass the 50% point, you’d better start looking very carefully at the qualifications of the people coming forward. Your future rests on the young guys starting out, and you don’t want to make it impossible to bring in a young man. The Spectrum: Could you explain the 50-50 admissions policy and the rationale behind it? Dr. Ketter; Historically, from the time we were a private institution up until ’70-71, the University always had between 49 and 54% from the 8th Judicial District it just happened. There was a very [Western New York] the newspapers both the Courier and the strong drive by News to say that Buffalo should dedicate itself exclusively to students from Western New York. They said the disruptions were caused by “the kids from Long Island”; there were a number of editorials. Now there was no question money was going to get tight. When money starts to get tight, you have to have advocates for you. When I talked to people to see if we could get people [legislators] from New York City to come to the fore and fight for us, they’d say; “Buffalo? Why should we fight for Buffalo? We have too much of a problem keeping zero tuition rate in New York City,” There were more people going to college closer to home because the residential living situation was getting too expensive, so we were not running the great risk that quality of students would decrease if we wanted to have roughly a balance. So I said in ’71, there would have to be a 50-50 mix. This would mean taking less people from Western New York than we had been taking before the year before we took 54%. But I needed to be able to make a public statement, so that I could go to the [local] legislators and say: Look, you have to support us. You have to get in there and fight. And the local legislators have done it. The difference in quality between students from the 8th Judicial District and those coming in from outside is the difference between an,89.8 and 90.2 average. In educational quality, it has not hurt us a bit. - - - The Spectrum: That would have to come from the The Spectrum: Isn’t it difficult for you. sitting in Board of Trustees? this office, to know how good a teacher someone is?

Monday, 4 March 1974 . �Parapsychology taught to increase awareness by Jeannie Lewis' Spectrum Staff Writer "Whatever you think, it’s more than that. —Incredible String Band " Parapsychology, a course being offered by College E, has attracted more than 200 students and at least 10 auditors, including some faculty members. The instructor, senior Dale Colton, teaches three sections of parapsychology; she doesn’t get paid and her course'is not funded at all. Ms. Colton, who has a sweet, quiet voice, a friendly/ attitude and an obvious willingness to talk about parapsycfiology, says she was born with psyctyip powers and clairvoyance. “1 always knew things ahead of time. I would, know something was going to take place,” she said matter-of-factly. When asked if this power frightened her, she replied: “No. It was most effective in times of danger. I would warn my As a child it was very difficult because I had no source of reference or explanation. I thought it had to .do with God or some higher help.” Ad hoc parapsychologist Ms. Colton became actively involved in parapsychology about six years ago. “I became aware through popularity in the media. I became close to a lot of the people who were doing research. I’m not so unique at all,” she said with a half-smile. Ms. Colton is closely associated with many scientists who are currently doing research in parapsychology. She has not allied herself with any organizations or specific groups. “I’m what you call an ad hoc parapsychologist, if that’s possible. I don’t want to be limited to one approach,” she laughed. Parapsychological research should be approached scientifically, she feels: “We’re to fear th© ; imknowtu' programmed Parapsychology as’ at ’ science has been accredited by the American Association fot the Advancement of Science. We want credibility so more research can be done.” ; Healing Citing some of the research being done in parapsychology, Ms. Colton mentioned the Maimonides Dream Laboratory in Brooklyn, where Stanley Krippner is doing research with people who claim to have precognitive dreams. “The results are all documented and verified,” emphasized Ms. Colton. She also elaborated on the experiments of Justa Smith, a former biochemistry teacher at Rosary Hill College who now works at Roswell Park Institute. “You’ve heard of healing,” said Ms. Colton, “the placing of hands on the afflicted part of the body of the patient. Healing is actually an increase in the activity of the enzymes of the body.” In Sr. Smith’s experiments, psychics were asked to hold test tubes filled with enzymes. “The psychics had no scientific knowledge,” Ms. Colton pointed out. The enzymes in the tubes automatically speeded up or slowed down. “The psychics let the energy pass through them without knowing how the activity should have been directed. This indicates a possible spiritual intervention,” said Ms- Colton. ‘There is a definite scientific reaction going on here.” Swami Rama ‘The concept of healing has a very mystical connotation. “I’m not saying there isn’t a level we don’t understand,” Ms. Colton, “but the approach here is para psychological and not metaphysical. There is a possibility that part of your own consciousness knows something without the rest of you knowing it,” she mused, Ms. Colton’s teacher is Swami Rama, wlipse psychic and meditative abilities have been investigated at Harvard University and at the Menninger Institute. “By controlling the' mind, you can control the bodily functions,” she asserted. ‘‘He [Swami] can stop his heairt for 22 seconds with no ill effects, or make his heart beat 12 times a minute at will. I’ve seen him do it!” she said excitedly. Ms. Colton feels that her own psychic powers have been greatly increased since she began studying with the swami. “I’ve never seen psychic powers like his. He knows everything,” she said with obvious admiration. , Detachment is key When asked why she is teaching the course in parapsychology, Ms. Colton replied; “It benefits the students in their attitudes and morale. I acquaint them with research being done in parapsychology, but the course is really geared to helping the students realize their own potential.’’ “Students feel subjected to the university system and its impersonal approach,” she began. “Here they can become so aware of what’s available to them. They can learn to relax and be detached,” continued tyss£bltpil. .“Detached lis the Jcsy^Wk;’-1 she.explained. “In a detached, relaxed state, the brain produces alpha waves. I am trying to train the students to produce more alpha waves in order to retain a state of relaxation.” “I use imagery. Imagery can be used in order to retain and relay experiences. It’s like a daydream,” she explained, “but if its's improved, it can be used to playback lectures or entire pages read. It is work towards total recall, and that could sure help students in their grades.” i, Scientific evidence “I’m not trying to get the students to believe anything,” Ms. Colton contended. “I’m trying to get them deeper into themselves. That’s why they like the course, I think. It’s geared to help them be more relaxed and at peace with themselves. They Can apply what they learn.” deals Ms. Colton said she who think people with “compassionately” she is bluffing about her psychic abilities. “They haven’t experienced what I have, so how could they know?” she asked. “I used to think 1 had to be defensive; but now there is evidence and research that is verifying these things. “Psychic experiences are very common,” Ms. Colton declared. “If people's attention is drawn to it, they realize that they have all had some kinds of psychic experiences, no matter how slight, in their lives.” Like touching velvet When asked what her empathic or telepathic experiences are like. Ms. Colton explained: “It’s like touching velvet. You feel it, but it’s not yours. There is a detached feeling with a psychic experience. It has much to do with visualization and inner feeling. The feeling is very strong.” Ms. Colton’s favorite phrase is a line from the Incredible String Band: "Whatever you think, it’s more than that.” Ms. Colton, views widespread psychic powers as “the next evolutionary stage. The whole drug thing is a prelude to it. But 1 don't advocate drugs because they are often uncontrollable and there is lots of dist raction “One-pointedness of mind is what to stive for,” explained Ms. Colton. “If psychic powers were widespread, you would have to be more honest with yourself and with others. Now there is so much dishonesty and lack of human concern. I just try to make people feel at ease and feel the things going on within them. The course itself applies to my students as people,” Ms. Colton asserted with sincerity. She concluded: “Scientists can’t write off parapsychology as a hoax now. You know, fire to the cave man was something to be feared until he discovered what it could mean to him.” ~ Hillel Presents A Truly Great Movie / .

However, an applicant with a lower set of statistics (in similar courses) will often be evaluated more favorably because of factors like sex, geographical residence and extracurricular activities. Choice of major No one is certain as to Which major is preferred by medical schools. Most medical schools have advised prospective applicants to select a major that interests them and to avoid courses that will be covered in the medical curriculum. They also advise non-science majors to do extremely well in their required science courses in order to receive favorable consideration. Many applicants feel that the most important criterion for medical school acceptance is obtaining the highest possible GPA, regardless of academic major (i.e., science vs. non-science major). Most schools require at least three years of college (90 hours) with two years of chemistry (inorganic and organic), one year of biology, and one year of physics as a minimum. Some or require suggest English composition, calculus or advanced math, or additional courses in language, psychology, or the sciences. Geographical residence is another important selection factor. State-supported schools generally give preference to state residents. Out-of-state residents, unless highly qualified, have a very slim chance of gaining acceptance. Even some private schools give residents preference. Consequently, New Yorkers have the best chance with the four New York State medical schools (Downstate, Upstate, Stony Brook and Buffalo). i; C--1 \ ! .. financial problems, advisers and even some schools, have hinted that applicants might be better avoiding the issue. Regarding the need for financial aid, Columbia University and College of Physicians Surgeons said in its application bulletin: “Because our resources for financial aid to students are not limitless, we cannot ignore altogether the factor of financial need. Our resources are large enough, however, to permit us to provide support for a substantial number of students (more than half of our student body, at present); financial aid in accordance with the general guidelines provided by our student-faculty Committee on Financial Aid is available for students that we accept. No students are ever accepted on an ‘accept/deny’ basis, in which admission is offered but no financial aid.” About one-half of the State University of Buffalo’s pre-meds have been accepted to medical schools, as f compared *ttt- the national average of approximately one-third. But what happens to those that are not fortunate enough to secure a place? Some reapply after completing further work (research, hospital employment, etc.). Others take the foreign route, usually at the University of Guadalajara. (Mexico) pr in Italy, Belgium of France. While Guadalajara has a four-year program, the European schools usually require six or seven years for an M!D. ' ‘ Inherent in getting the degree at a foreign school ate language difficulties, high expenses and perhaps most significantly; returning to practice in the U.S. To return, graduates are required to pass an exam given by the Educational Council for Foreign Medical Graduates which, according to Time Magazine is “not insurmountable for most U.S. students trained in good foreign schools.” , THE THUMB IS THREATENED. < Liii \uS\ i * > i Student-Railpass.

Most schools devote the first 1H-2 years primarily to basic science courses and the remaining two years to clinical experience. During the early years, schools vary in the extent of clinical grading work, class size, procedures and curriculum. The traditional curriculum in basic science includes courses in biochemistry, microbiology, anatomy, physiology, pathology and pharmacology.

This bill remedies the situation,” Mr. Wilson declared. by Ellen Eckstein Spectrum Staff Writer This year, for the first time. New York State’s election primary will be held on September 10 instead of the usual June date. A bill pushing back the primary date was passed by the State Legislature on February 12, with the vote going almost strictly along party lines. Many critics have construed it as a partisan action against Democrats. Governor Malcolm Wilson is assured of the Republican nomination; Democratic hopefuls for Governor are expected to erifeage in a bruising primary battle. A September primary means there would be much less time for the Democrats to restore a semblance of party unity before the election. The bill sets precedent for the primary to be held on the first Tuesday after the second Monday in September. Governor Wilson said: Upon signing this bill into law, “the spring primary has resulted in unduly long political campaigns. These campaigns have been expensive and risks of electoral abuse and questionable financing Congressman Ogden Reid (D., N.Y.) opposed the primary date change, claiming; “It shortens the campaign and favors the incumbent.” Another factor in changing the primary date was a case presently before the Justice Department. New York State has requested an exemption from having their new apportionment plan examined by the Justice Department, and the department, as it has done previously, complied with this request. This action is now up for review. The NAACP, prompted by a case brought on behalf of Spanish-speaking residents of Manhatten protesting the lack of an election ballot translation, moved in Statutory Court in Washington, D.C. to have the order granting the present exemption withdrawn. The exemptions were rescinded for the boroughs of Brooklyn, Manhattan and the Bronx on the basis of a 1965 law which states: “If less than 50% of a minority group fails to vote, then the area is not entitled to an exemption. It is now up to the Civil Rights Division of the Justice Department to rule on > whether or note to uphold the exemption. . ■ Federal law states that any plans ft) reapportion the state legislature or amend any election laws must be approved by the Justice Department. If, for example, the state’s population were 60% black, the opportunities for representation of those people should correspond with that percentage. “The problem here,” said a spokesman for Assembly Leader Perry Duryea, “is that there is a tendency for some minority groups not to register and not to vote.” This hampers attempts to determine the ekact number of the minority groups and makes accurate reapportionment impossible. Because the Justice Department may not rule on this case by June, the changing of the primary date “will coincidently make provisions for this,” said Governor Wilson. The one group most affected by this change in the primary date is students. There is presently no absentee balloting in primaries, but the Senate has taken action to remedy this. Last week they passed a bill that would permit absentee voting in primaries effective of this year. Its chances of passing the Assembly seem very good, since it passed a similar bill last year which died in the Senate. While the present case in the Justice Department is a factor in the changing of the primary date, Governor Wilson feels the overridding factor is “the elimination of the long, drawn-out campaign which tends to add to voter boredom and apathy.” Kemp: Wait and see Smith says House will get Grand Jury’s report on Nixon “Eventually, the House Judiciary Committee will get the Grand Jury material relating to the President’s involvement,” Rep. Henry Smith (R., Tonawanda), a member of the House Judiciary Committee, said Sunday. “It’s up to Judge Sirica whether to release it he might delay if it will affect but eventually, 1 believe we those going on trial will get it,” Mr. Smith said. Asked how he felt about President Nixon’s attempt to personally define impeachment as being limited to criminal offenses, Mr. Smith explained: “In the constitutional process of impeachment, the final arbiters must be the House of Representatives. It’s ultimately a political matter.” Mr. Smith recalled Vice-President Gerald Ford’s 1970 remark that an impeachable offense is “anything the House considers it to be at a particular point in history.” “This is politically true,” Mr. Smith assessed. - — Mitchell Haldeman Indictments ~~~ that March 21, 1973 conversation, said Mr. Haldeman’s recollection of the President’s remark, “as he then and there well knew, were false.” Following that meeting, $75,000 was arranged to be delivered to Watergate defendant E. Howard Hunt, and at a White House meeting the next day, Mr. Mitchell assured Mr. Haldeman that Hunt “was not a problem any longer,” the Grand Jury’s 50-page indictment charged. Cites acts by Nixon The Watergate Grand Jury also asked Judge Sirica to give the House impeachment inquiry all evidence pertaining to President Nixon in the Watergate case. According to the Washington Post, the Grand Jury’s report on the President cites specific acts by Mr. Nixon as well as a theory which holds that the President participated in the conspiracy to obstruct justice. Judge Sirica was expected to quickly decide whether the Grand Jury report would go to the House Judiciary Committee, thus ending the impasse against the House receiving secret Grand Jury information about the President’s role in the case. The Grand Jury was dissauded by Mr. Jaworski from indicting the President himself, thePos/ reported. Two Republican members of the House Judiciary Committee said that if the Grand Jury’s evidence supports Mr. Dean and refutes Mr. Haldeman and Mr. Nixon, it could have a significant effect on the current impeachment inquiry. Mr. Haldeman, accused of conspiracy, obstruction of justice and perjury, faces up to 25 years in prison. Mr. Ehrlichman, the President’s former chief domestic advisor, was indicted for conspiracy, obstruction of justice and making false statements to the FBI and Grand Jury, and also faces 25 years in jail. Mr. Mitchell, the former Attorney General now facing trial with former Commerce Secretary Maurice Stans in a separate obstruction of justice case involving Robert Vesco, faces up to 30 years in jail for conspiracy, obstruction of justice, perjury and making false statements to the FBI and Grand Jury. The seven defendants are set to be arraigned on March 9, and Judge Sirica has imposed silence on all sides in the case. No comment “Never before have so many close and trusted advisors of an American President faced criminal accusations in a single indictment,” The New York Times reported. White House press secretary Gerald Warren declined comment on President Nixon’s remark, after Messrs. Haldeman and Ehrlichman resigned under pressure in spring 1973, that they were “two of the finest public servants it has been my privilege to -m -t know.” — Outrage the sensibilities' “If the House did impeach,” he continued, “it could be argued at the Senate trial that a criminal offense is necessary. The Senate might or might not buy that argument. My guess is that they would not.” Mr. Smith offered his own definition of an impeachable offense: “As I define it, an impeachable offense is an offense or action on the part of a federal official which would outrage the sensibilities of the average reasonable person, and one that is harmful to the welfare of the public,” he explained. Citing the staff report of the House Judiciary lawyers, the Republican Congressman said it is certain that “the framers of the Constitution meant impeachment to be more than a criminal offense.” The indictment Friday of seven of President Nixon’s former top aides was not surprising, Mr. Smith feels: “The country has been waiting for the results of the Watergate Grand Jury. A lot of people expected these indictments.” The indictments are “merely charges,” Mr. Smith cautioned, and he is “waiting to see what the evidence brings out.” Since there has been adverse public reaction to “all the unofficial charges,” he explained. Courts may decide He feels President Nixon’s attempt to limit the parameters of impeachment “is what any defendant harassed by charges would say, that these are the charges and I’m not guilty.” He is confident the House Judiciary Committee will use it’s “broad subpoena powers” to subpoena “all relevant materials and documents. We have a constitutional duty to subpoena this material. If the President says no if it comes to confrontation then I suppose it will be settled in the courts,” Mr. Smith said. Mr. Smith doubts the Committee will finish its impeachment inquiry by the target date of April 30 set by chairman Peter Rodino (D., N.J.), but said “we will probably file a report within two months of say, by June 30.” He continued: ‘The that date President has a right to argue his case, but it is the constitutional duty of the House to define impeachment.” He does think executive privilege has validity as “a protection of the office of the - Jackalone elected — — — —continued on page 10 —continued from page 1 — .. the most integrity any discernable pattern; the ferences, allow partisan Robert astonishing 570-vote margin wounds to heal, find places campus Ketter.

"It is a logical absurdity for Mr. Nixon to contend that he has a ‘constitutional responsibility' to use the powers of his office to frustrate an impeachment inquiry into whether he has abused those powers." —An editorial in last week’s New York Times — — 'THOU Of US WHO WOtK IN In recent weeks, The Spectrum has accepted advertising from the United States Armed Forces, and in Friday’s issue, the Reserve Officers Training Corps (ROTC). I strongly object to this newspaper accepting such advertising, as they do not serve the best interests of the students at this University. s AFter conversing with various members of the editorial board, I have ascertained that these advertisements must be accepted so that The Spectrum can survive. Indeed, I recognize the cutbacks that have been made in an effort to save money, and I fully appreciate the problem. But to accept advertising from an organization that has its sole purpose the training of men in the various ways to destroy human life is certainly contrary to the philosophy of this newspaper and 1 presume the philosophy of students in general. Buildings were burned, students expelled, buckshot fired and investigations launched across the country and particularly at this University in response to the presence of recruitment officers on campus and ROTC on campus. Although there has already been a generation pf students since the riots of J969, and although street politics are no longer considered the best method of affecting political change, and although the United States no longer sends trotyls to fight in' Southeast Asia (we hope), 1 wOuld venture to idy that sentiment is still anti-military on this campus. If Richard Nixon insists upon increasing the 8 > t* military budget in peacetime to tis largest ever, then Spectrum should not have to support that The effort. If newspapers begin to turn down the for such organizations, then maybe the defense budget will be cut, and money for more pressing needs (like food for the Appalachians and a realistic welfare budget) wpuld be freed. In terms of this newspaper, the only answer is to seek otheradvertising. While The Spectrum may be experiencing some financial hardships, the only local resolution is greater advertising from merchants.

(Guess who forgot that, or at least looked at the wrong week on the calendar, and is currently running a very thin line above empty? I only hate the government for personal reasons, not ideological ones, that’s who! ) and the line that there is no recession, just a downturn in the economy, drives me crazy. I don’t make a whole bunch of money. And if I add together last year’s rate of inflation, and just the projected rate for next year, over the last two years I have lost more than a quarter of what I do make. That makes me more than a little uncomfortable, it makes me very anxious in fact. I would like to lose some weight, it is true, but it is clear to me that I would rather do it voluntarily than on the basis of starving it off. I have had large needs to have stocks of canned goods, etc. “just in case,” in the past. Those needs seem to be returning. Congress finally passed an energy bill. Which Nixon is probably going to veto because there is a rollback provision concerning the price of crude oil.

The Nixon Administration works hard at creating the deception that although “hostilities” continue in South Vietnam, they are without American participation. And, the end of American casualties in a remote foreign land, a national nightmare for so many years, appears a kind of evidence that we are finally out of Vietnam. Vietnamese citizens, however, know differently. They see thousands of American civilian workers who have taken over the essential non-combat duties the Paris Peace Accords forbid Americans to perform. Article 4 of those accords states, “The United States will not continue its military involvement or intervene in the internal affairs of South Vietnam.” But, according to the Times , the various forms of the continued U.S. role include: “$5.4 million worth of ammunition a week, apparently unaccompanied by pressure to restrain military activities;” not only, “Vietnam-based mechanics and technicians, but also the Pentagon based generals who tour airfields to ascertain the needs of the South Vietnamese Air Force, the ‘Liaison men’ who reportedly give military advice from time to time, the civilian Defense Department employees who make ''tq’V provide highly ‘tyfi'k j ,specialised technical help, and the CIA officials who continue to advise South Vietnam’s national police on intelligence matters.” In order that the military competition in South Vietnam be replaced with a political (i.e,, electoral competition, the spirit and the letter of the Paris Peace Accords must be supported. Congress should be instructed that this is the will of the American, as well as the Vietnamese, people. Let your Congressperson know that a war run with American artillery, planes and bombs fueled with guided and repaired American funds and gasoline by American mechanics, ‘liaison men’, and observers is still an American war, even if the dead are Vietnamese.

Mr. Smith said that only in the last few days had he begun “thinking about whether complete non-cooperation (by the President] with the House inquiry is itself an impeachable offense. I think the Committee might find that non-cooperation is an impeachable offense in itself.” However, Mr. Smith said his own opinion would depend on the circumstances and extent of non-cooperation involved. . • • • “1 think it’s a triumph for the system,” declared Congressman Jack Kemp (R., Hamburg) Saturday in reaction to the indictments of seven of President Nixon’s closest aides. “I’m proud of the fact that justice in this country can investigate the highest office in the land. But,” he cautioned against premature judgements on impeachment, “that system also requires a presumption of innocence until proven guilty.” Rep. Kemp is reserving his own judgement on the impeachment of President Nixon until the House Judiciary Committee completes its impeachment inquiry and makes its recommendations. The question, as he sees it, is “how do you protect the office of the Presidency and still get to the truth of the story?” Asked if the indictment of his former top aides casts doubt on President Nixon’s credibility, Mr. Kemp replied: “If you’re asking me if there are doubts about the President yes, there arc doubts. I think the burden of proof is definately on the President.” - ' System is working “Most people knew the indictments were in the offing,” Mr. Kemp continued. “They came as no real surprise. Most people knew that Ehrlichman and Halde man were most likely to be indicted,” Their Indictment “proves that the system of American justice is working,” Rep. Kemp believes, although adding: “An indicfmerttMs-ian allegation and not D C "y • • proof.” Despite the fact that the Watergate Grand Jury charged that Messrs. Haldeman, ErhHchman, Mitchell and Colson had lied repeated in their testimony, Mr. Kemp believes they may have acted in the coverup without the President’s knowledge: “They had plans to keep it from him.” Mr. Kemp is pleased that the House Judiciary Committee will be getting the reports from the Watergate Grand Jury (if Federal Judge John Sirica approves), and feels that “due process” is taking its course. “I hope and expect that he [President Nixon] will cooperate with the House Judiciary Committee.” said Mr. Kemp. ‘The House Judiciary Committee which is certainly not pro-Nixon has not come out and said, ‘He is not cooperating’,” the Republican Congressman expained. Mr. Kemp was asked about President Nixon’s statement that he will only cooperate with the House inquiry to the extent he considers “consistent with my constitutional responsibility to defend the office of the Presidency.” “I hope they will find a means of cooperation, somewhere in between trying to ransack everything the man has ever done, and his saying no, I won’t cooperate at all,” Mr. Kemp explained. - - Hopes for compromise He feels “all the relevant tapes and records” must be obtained, but he will “not support a witch-hunt.” Asked if it is proper for President Nixon to define what he considers proper grounds for impeachment, Mr. Kemp said: “He has rights. Most people defend themselves with what is regarded as self-serving statements.” Will Mr. Kemp support impeachment if President Nixon refuses to cooperate with the House inquiry? “It all depends on what you mean by cooperation,” he explained. “How far does he have to go?” He hopes the House and Mr. Nixon can “work out a compromise,” but .noting that the burden of proof is on the President, Mr. Kemp conceded: “I would expect more cooperation than he has given so far.” He will reserve judgement until the House completes its impeachment inquiry, but admitted that “gross failure to cooperate” on President Nixon’s part would “of course” influence his vote on impeachment.

Working with the Day Care children has enabled her to gain invaluable skills to complement her experience from Children’s Hospital. She eventually wants to study the behavior of children and how sickness atfects them.

Myrthe Naparstik and Phylis Herdendorf teach German to children through the extensive use of visual aids. Ms. Herdendorf feels visual stimulation can help younger children grasp foreign languages more easily. Therefore, the children leam German using puppets, acting out nursery stories that they are familiar with in English. The Day Care children are excited about their German classes and actually look forward to them, a statement perhaps not as applicable to their undergraduate counterparts at this school.

'SA Speakers Boeau piesents— AN ACUPUNCTURE Dr. CY. Trg Wednesday, Mach 6 at&30pm Oak Gym are hvrted to attend acknlsston is free - The University is considering a proposal to build a 3500-seat concert hall on the Amherst Campus to accommodate the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra, according to the Courier Express. Plans were already underway to build 1500-seat a smaller Performing Arts Center on the Amherst Campus, when two members of the Philharmonic Board of Directors, Robert 1. Millonzi and Manly Fleichman, asked the University to look into the possibility of a larger hall, suitable for the Philharmonic. The additional 2300 seats would reportedly cost $1.6 million. While Facilities Planning vice-president John Telfer denied the Courier report that his office was doing a feasibility study “to be completed in a week or two at the most,” he thought the plan a for concert hall was “wonderful” and would greatly benefit both the school and the community Mr. Telfer said the chances of the State appropriating the funds needed for the facility were good, and even a limited commitment by the Philharmonic to do a series of concerts at the new center would justify its construction. The Courier Express reported that the matter has not been brought before the board of directors of the Philharmonic and board chairman Victor Raisser 11 “refrained from endorsing the Amherst site as a new home.” The two men behind the drive to bring the Buffalo Philharmonic to Amherst are both influential, according to the Courier. Mr. Millonzi is one of the board’s most powerful members and Mr. Flcichmann, a member of the Orchestra Board of Directors, is also a State University of New York Trustee. Sources in the University asserted that no decision on the concert hall will be made in the immediate future Monday, 4 March 1974 . The Spectrum .

Besides receiving training in your own specialty, you’d be in contact with physicians in all of the medical specialties. You’ll function in an environment which is intellectually stimulating and professionally challenging. Not all physicians pursue post residency fellowships. But if you are interested, the Air Force conducts them both in-house and at civilian institutions. The physician already in practice can look forward to other things. If you want training in the practice of the medicine of the future, you’ll find it in the Air Force. For example, there’s emphasis on group medicine and preventive medicine, and the growing specialty of “family physician.” Whatever your interest, there are few specialties which are not being practiced in toda/s Air Force. The physician starting his practice in civilian life has to take into account the cost of setting up an office. The physician commencing his practice in ihc Air Force does not. He finds hisofficeesiablished for him. Supplies and equipment readily available. He has many options available to him when treating patients. For example, he can consult with Air Force specialists.

I have to break my pace and give up some record reviews. I don’t like them, but if I don’t review them that sadistic troll Fernbacher (Editor’s Note:Ain’t no troll, I hate little people because they always get into my pants and I have hotcha) won’t give me any more to slap them to death vinyl to review; and that shit is getting kind of scarce, y’know. Well, might as well get to it. The music on these two albums is so vapid and innocuous that to keep awake long enough to write this, I’m drinking gin and listening to the Best ofOtis Redding. Now don’t get put off. This isn’t gonna be about booze and hockey games or something. I’m really going to attempt some critical appraisal of these albums. At least I can explain why they bore me. Absolutely no one could’ve been more enthusiastic about either of these two bands when they were formed. Back in Philadelphia, particularly West Philadelphia, nearly every street corner and park resounds with the sounds of congas. Samba rhythms and improvised chants a la Art Blakey’s “Sacrifice” provided an eerie and sensual backup track for whatever we were doing in that sweltering dead-end town. I’m sure that five out of ten kids who grew up in West Philly are good conga drummers. When I heard Santana (as in Carlos) was forming a rock band that would use primarily Latin and Afro-Cuban rhythms, I was elated. Since rock and roll had stolen my enthusiasm and love for jazz, by its sheer sensual force I felt doubly fine. - Jo Jo Gunne Jumpin Itye Gun (Asylum) ’ Things were coming home in a way. The first Ip with that trippy Tiger cover was a schuck and I’ve disliked their work ever since. That “Soul Sacrifice” thing that everybody associated with mud and Woodstock and which unfortunately catapulted Santana’s career was taken in form from the Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers Drum Suite Ip and almost note-for-note from Michael Olatunji’s first Ip Drums of Passion. It is clearly a violation of Olatunji’s copyright on the song, butobvioulsy Carlos forgot that because he claimed authorship on his album. Olatunji spoke about it last year when he was here, he sued Santana, but it didn’t matter, the whole thing just saddened and confused him. Well, what if it was a mistake My mind was finally made up by Abraxas, where I believe Carlos had suddenly started to absorb the style of Gabor Szabo to the extent of playing sections from Spellbinder note-for-note. 1 didn’t question his ability to play Afro-Latin-influenced rock and roll, I questioned his integrity as an artist. That’s all I have against Santana or McLaughlin: it’s the pious ruse that angers me. The album cover to Love Devotion, and Surrender is out of touch compared to say the cover of Muscle ofLove. All the piety and white suits suggests a reality that just isn’t there. They are guilty of cultural misinformation about the roots of American music. They’re capitalizing on God and Coltrane’s corpse. I’ve no objection to their or anyone else’s wanting to be a seagull or to learn Rung Fu, I just resent any distortion of the real thing, a distortion that makes it seem simpler than it really is. The first Mahavishnu Orchestra excited me beyond — — ... reason. Rock and roll was'sufferinggenuine atrophy, when a new and really vital style had been bom. In two short years McLaughlin has become as much a prince and egoist as the most insufferable, and least believeable, of the glitter stars. Sri Chimnoy’s liner notes have become a constant source of nausea for me. But what’s worst is that the music on this live album is predictable and boring. It’s all become incredibly ironic. John and Carlos are now playing and praying together a lot, yet firing members of their bands with a ruthlessness only decadents ate known for. McLaughlin, besides repressing the musical abilities of both Laird and Cobham till one buckled and the other left, has also fired Goodman for not cutting that spiffy pony tail and relinquishing his motorcycle tee-shirts in favor of a tonsure and punjabi suit; and after the violinist complied, McLaughlin fired him anyhow. On Welcome, Santana has put together an incredible band (big names), but the music is emotionless and totally gratuitous. Between Nothingness and Eternity there is an eternity of nothingness, all worked out, obsessed guitar from McLaughlin and possessed drumming from Cobham. There’s good reason to hope for better things from both these bands. At this point in time to take a kinder view perhaps they are struggling with the contradictions of the music biz in America. All I know is they sould like androids to me now .. sounds I once loved. They play like the Dead did last year, to an image of themselves pressed by ASCAP or BMI. For now put your money on Herbie Hancock, or A1 Wilson, or Weather Report. There’s a lot that’s much more rewarding. Les Cargots — - . - This record starts out on a highly energized level and seldom strays from that path almost like a musical mono-toon. Cohesive, to say the best. Unmoving to say the least. Unlike a lot of the supposed “rock” music being foisted upon the pubic public by those glabrous mannikins called “glitter boys,” JoJo Gunne is anachronistic, in a pleasant sort of way. If you don’t believe me, just waste some brain tissue on a song called “High, Drool.” No sexual misguidance here, just lots’a teenage lust. If ya know what “I Can’t Control Myself” by the Troggs is all about, then you’ll have no trouble tackling the message in this here institutionalized anthem. A perfect compliment to Brownsville Station’s “Smokin’ in the Boys Room” and Alice Cooper’s ‘Teenage Lament.” Hotcha. Stick a teach n’ make ’em bleeeed. Other tidbits y can dick twirt to are “I Wanna Love You” and “Red Meat.” This record gets my “Hot Poker in the Eyes” award for the month. Meth on. Joe Fernbacher - In a flashy display of gregarious fleshy coda (like I sure wish they would give up this preternatural obsession with rotund sarcoid megaphysics that’s fat rock for those not familiar with my preoccupation with terminal glossolalia: like ’member “Shake That Fat” from one of their earlier efforts that song re-translates into visually-oriented stimuli on the cover of this record, they’ve even thrown in a few subliminal hints of porcine rock for good measure; a piglet in search of a steamy crotch, wuzza, wuzza), Jo Jo Gunne tickles the glans clitoridis with slashing foot stomping rock ’n madness. Which is amazing in and of itself, seeing’s how they’ve had more than their fair share of brushes with rock ’n dejecta, like their last album was musical puke. Jumpin’ the Gun is consistently sabulous while bordering more than occasionally on pure manical smash-your-head-into-a-brick-wall; hard pumping mutha-humpin’ Rock On. — - Alvin Lee and My Ion LeFevre On the Road (Columbia) to Freedom How Quanit!! Alvin Lee decides to get some religion, southern style that is, so he joins up with that pseudo holy roller and holder of the record for opening up more Mountain shown than anyone else, My Ion LeFevre. And not only that, but old Alvin brought along a whole slew of his limey lads to help out this time around, including Steve Winwood, Jim Capaldi, Ron Wood, Mick Fleetwood and Hari Georgeson (ain’t he cute). The makings of a real badass cookin’ muthafucka of an el pea, wouldn’t you say? Well, if it was 1969 and 1 hadn’t already gone through the onslaught of the School call-up-your-friends-and-let’s-jam albums that have followed since the Cooper-Bloomfield sessions, I might have been interested in this latest piece of vinyl. But it’s not 1969, and I am unenchanted, as I have been for the last 4 years, by Alvin Lee. The mind boggling thing about this record is that it sounds so good, production-wise and yet it conjures up absolutely zero reaction in any part of my anatomy. Everything is real clear, almost too clear. In fact, this is a true technological album, in the sense that it’s music made for and by Androids. So Alvin has mellowed out. Well, the country songs here (Mylon’s influence, no doubt), are insipid, the folky tunes are vapid and the attempts at rocking out are sterile. In fact, the most spiritually uplifting event on the record occurs on “Carry My Load,” when Alvin and Mylon produce vocal harmonies stolen straight from Moby Grape '69. It does my heart good to see homage paid to the grape. Come to think of it, if Alvin had any balls, he would have done a record with Skip Spence. Consider the possibilities . . . Over in my neck of the wood, we can take a little sock with our rock, a bit of soul with our roll. I’ll take the less musically perfect but totally ALIVE field of Slade or the Dolls every day of the week over this obviously competent, extremely proficient, but totally boring record called On The Road to Freedom. TB Sheets RECORDS Mose Jones Mose Knows (MCA) What an insipid album. Boring from first cut to last. Whimped beyond belief, A1 Keeper's southern strategy should have been left in the hands of Jack Daniel’s. Mose Jones is not a good band. Their technical abilities on their respective instruments range from fair to simplistic. I believe this record is part of an enormous and entirely sinister plot of some fiend to make sure everyone lives the remainder of their lives at the lowest energy point imaginable. Let’s face it, when was the last time you did something that made your thing stand on end? Lately, things are god damn boring. Fun isn’t fun, highs are low, people are carbon oriented and rock and roll hasn’t had any energy since San Francisco became as tasteless as confectionary sugar and England decided to stage music shows for the plastic factor of each personaltiy. I realize I’m jaded and all, but beyond all of that is the fact that tasteless material is absolutely unpardonable in these vinyl tight days. Mose Jones never really finds a niche. They alternate between limp rockers, lumbering vocal arrangements better left to Gamble and Huff, repetitive Bros, up tempo jazz riffs, cheap bossa nova imitations and other assorted schlock. This apparent lack of quality is only attributable to the fact that these boys were weined on CArnation Instant Breakfast. Who likes this record? Obviously, A1 Kooper did. But he’s so out of it anyway. Kooper still believes that a kinda cute jew from New york can slide dials and people and come out with “Quality, man!” I mean who gives a shit if A1 Kooper is a musical genius and loves the snoidette sound of a spinning Leslie. Go away A1 and leave us alone. We are tired of being tired of being bored. Lynyrd Skynyrd and Mose Jones are Siamese twins in a sense. They both originate out of Al’s rectally fixated region. Lynyrd Skynyrd’s material is a joy compared to Mose Jones. It is the difference between Gilbert O’Sullivan and Paul McCartney. As subtly as musk oil is junsubtle. The last cut of Mose Knows is entitled “Just Another Highway Song.” It captures the essence of the entire album. Mose must know that each cut is just another love, blues and Bros, imitation. You know the irony is that Mose Jones would deny imitating anyone. Just off the mark entirely. It is not even bad enough to be comically entertaining. Deep depression, fear and loathing. Let’s make a conscious effort not to burn out everyone. We have to keep happy with each other and our record collections. There still is stimulating music on every level. Don’t become so empty and typical as to think that the death of Duane Allman and JOhn Coltrane is where musical heritages have stopped. It could never end. Mose Jones is just a directional sign, a boundary. STAY AWAY FROM GEEKDOM Raoul Stevens - Monday, 4 March 1974 . The Spectrum .

The Broncos gained the Central Collegiate Association tournament berth by winning the season’s series from Buffalo 2-1-1. The Bulls had to win Saturday’s contest by five goals in order to qualify, since tfee bid was awarded on the basis of total goals in tht Bufftilo-Wester Michigan series. The Bulls had held a 1-0 lead after dominating the first period, as Bronco goaltender Steve Roth held off the Buffalo attack virtually alone. Western Michigan then tallied three unanswered goals in the middle stanza, and Buffalo deadlocked the contest on Mike Klym’s 36th goal of the season with barely two minutes to play. Both Roth and Bull netminder John Moore were outstading when tested in the ten minute, sudden death overtime period that followed. “At the start of the second period, we were a tired team,” reported Buffalo coach Ed Wright. “You put together a hell of a period and are ahead 1-0, it’s almost frustrating.” haven’t had it,” remarked Wright. “1 don’t know whether it’s a lack of conditioning or overconditioning or what. It happened against Ithaca [5-4 loss after a 7-3 win], it happened here,” Wright added. Wright replaced Tom Schratz with Tom Haywood on the John Stranges- Mike Klym line after the first period. “I was trying to get some goals,” noted Wright. ‘The red line [Andre Poiier-Tom Haywood-Bill Busch] had a hell of a shift in the first period, and Tommy’s [Haywood] a hell of a forechecker. He makes things happen in the other end of the ice,” Wright continued. Buffalo had played well to defeat the Broncos, absence of 4-2, in Friday night’s contest Stranges, Mark Sylvester and and Mike Perry, who sat out one-game suspensions as a, result of an incident in Western Michigan. Mike Kelly netted the winning goal in the early minutes of the third period. Noisy crowd A total of home series.

In what was definitely their finest offensive performance of the long season, the basketball Bulls upset a strong Rochester area team, 106-95 Saturday night. The loss for the Yellowjackets ran their record to 14—9 with one game remaining, virtually dashing all hopes of a small-college tourney bid. The Bulls picked up their second consecutive road conquest, increasing their record to 5—19. “I think for the first time this year, we finally took advantage of a team that thought they were better than us,” remarked a pleased Bull coach Leo Richardson. When the game announcer mentioned the teams’ records in the pre-game introductions, both the crowd and the Rochester team made light of the situation. Among those laughing at the suggestion of playing a team with a 4-19 record was Yellowjacket head coach Lyle Brown. Brown wasn’t laughing after his team dropped their first home in eleven decisions. - Brown amazed “I can’t believe they’re [Buffalo] record is only 5 19,” remarked the disappointed Rochester mentor. “I was really amazed at the way they moved the ball around.” The Bulls moved the ball around to the tune of 41 assists, shattering the old record of 31 set against Youngstown earlier in the season. Leading — the Bulls in handouts was senior guard Ken Pope. Pope tossed 15 assists, breaking his school standard of 13. “I think we finally grew up tonight,” rejoiced Richardson. Kenny and Gary [Domzalski] finally did what they were supposed to do. Anytime you get guards who run the team, you’re all set.” Domzalski tossed out eight assists while scoring 18 points on a 9—13 shooting spree. Buffalo was led by Otis Horne and Horace Brawley with 26 and 24 points respectively. Rochester’s Gordon Turner captured game scoring honors with 45 points, but it was Turner’s shoe that played a bigger part in the contest’s outcome Shoe-in “The ‘shoe play’ was the turning point in the game,” reflected Buffalo assistant Bob Case. “That made a difference of four points for us when we needed them.” The ‘shoe play’ occurred early in the second half as the Bulls nursed a slim two point halftime lead. Turner’s shoe came off, and the entire Rochester squad fell into mass confusion, leading to four quick Buffalo points and a change in momentum for the Bulls. The Bulls close their season tonight at Buffalo State, as they attempt to avenge last year’s season-ending upset in Memorial Auditorium. The Bengals are led by freshman Greg Miller, who tallied 31 in a victory over Brockport.

Rohn probably has the best such takedown in collegiate wrestling. Wright lost his semifinal round match to Mike Shuffstall, one of five qualifiers from Slippery Rock State College (Clarion and Indiana State also have five). Wright then won two consolation round matches to place third. There are a variety of reasons why the other Bulls did not qualify. Several were outclassed or Jerry had injury problems. Nowakowski, Bull co-captain and defending champ at 1S8, decided not to make the trip. However, two of Buffalo’s grapplers wrestled very well only to end up with heartbreaking fourth place finishes. “There’s enough not enough participation, not ambition, I guess” said intramural director Bill Monkarsh, describing ' going. It is one incentive for meeting people in a recreational setting,” said Monkarsh. At this there University are women participating in coed flag football, and coed coed volleyball, basketball, among other sports. the women’s intramural program at this University. of women who participate in intramurals are just Buckleyes’ Mike Terelle and the Scopers Bill Janicki, neither of whom interest at Buffalo to the gym facilities. “We don’t have the nicest of locker rooms, nor the type of facility where you could enjoy being. Face it, this place (Clark Hall) is like a dungeon,” Monkarsh added. “The “I majority would run it (women’s intramurals and a women’s night) if people would use it,” said Monkarsh. However, Monkarsh did say that he would run a paddleball tournament for women and reinstate if the warranted it. night a women’s swim student response Upset victory the men’s Meanwhile, in intramural leagues, the Scopers upset the Pacers, 72-65, while the Buckeyes bombed Wakefield, 86-52. The Scopers and Buckeyes met in the finals last night, while P.O.T. faced the Knicks for the dormitory league championship. “We did everything right in the first half, but they played real tough man to man defense in the second half,” observed intramural coordinator Brian Manfre, who coaches the Pacers. “(John) Forys started hitting from everywhere, he couldn’t miss,’-’ Manfre added. Forys, a member of the varsity Bulls two seasons ago, tallied 25 points, 21 in the second half to lead the Scopers. The Pacers had led, 40-29, at halftime. Meeting incentive Part of the reason that women The championship may have are not packing Clark Hall to been settled by the availability of participate in intramurals may be the Bucheyes’ Mike Terelle and due to a misconception of what the Scopers Bill Janicki, neither of Monkarsh intramurals are. described intramurals as involving “structure and leagues.” “It is not for the honors person but for the person who wants a recreational saw action in the semifinals. “If one of the two plays, I think that team will win,” forecast intramural official Ron Greene. “If neither or both of activity with competition on their them play, then 1 would pick the own level,” Monkarsh maintained.

No. 60 State University of New York at Buffalo Learning Center and could not receive However, Dr. Ketter said that of the eight newly-added blacks (out of 141 new faculty), one was a department chairman with tenure, four were assistant professors who could recieve tenure after the normal five to seven years, and one was an instructor who could also qualify for tenure. The other two blacks were hired as “visiting faculty” and “clinical faculty,” which are never eligible for tenure. tenure. Racial bias in faculty hiring is charged by State Assemblyman Eve by Gary Co)in Campus Editor ©1974, The Spectrum Is the State University of Buffalo guilty of racial discrimination in the hiring of faculty and staff? Buffalo Assemblyman Arthur Eve thinks so, and he is planning to sue the University to prove it. University President Robert Ketter emphatically disagrees, and he has disputed a number of Mr. Eve’s statistics on the number of black personnel at this University. The conflict surfaced two weeks ago when Mr. Eve stated that there are “only about 23” blacks on the State University of Buffalo faculty. Mr. Eve’s statement was made at a state hearing on the University’s budget request and reported in the Buffalo Evening News. Dr. Ketter immediately wrote to Mr. Eve, pointing out that there are 64, not 23, blacks on the University’s instructional staff. The University is “seriously attempting to increase the number of black faculty members,” the letter stated. As evidence, Dr. Ketter noted that 5.6% of the openings available during the latest hiring period had been filled by blacks, further the proportion of blacks increasing teaching at this University. ,Few black PhD’s Data compiled by the, campus Office of Equal Opportunity in August 1973 indicated that 4.6% of the University’s instructional staff was black, despite the fact that the total number of blacks among persons in the entire country who hold Ph.D degress ranges from a low estimate of 0.8% to a high of 2%, Dr. Ketter wrote. Comparable figures Responding to Mr. Eve’s criticism that only 22% of the blacks on the faculty were tenured, Dr. Ketter said that 88% of the black full or associate professors have tenure. Assemblyman Eve reacted angrily to Dr. Ketter’s letter, accusing the University President of “covering up the facts” by manipulating and distorting statistics. “Dr. Ketter doesn’t deserve to be President,” Mr. Eve declared, adding that he would oppose Dr. Ketter’s re-appointment. Specifically, Mr. Eve said that Dr. Ketter’s claim that there was 64 blacks on the faculty was erroneous because that total included Spanish-speaking persons, American Indians and Africans. However, Dr. Ketter stated Wednesday that the 64 instructors in question were all blacks. Dr. Ketter maintained that because it normally takes an instructor five to seven years to qualify for tenure, the increased number of blacks hired in the last few years were not yet eligible for tenure. “It must be understood that the University has been aggressively seeking black faculty members for only the past several years and the normal time required to attain tenure in the University is five to seven years,” Dr. Ketter explained. Told that Dr. Ketter had disputed many of his contentions with statistics on hiring and tenure, Mr. Eve said that he wanted to see that information “in writing” from Dr. Ketter. Mr. Eve added that even if Dr. Ketter’s factual information was correct, 4.6% black faculty in a state system where 16% of the state was black was inadequate. Tenure eligibility Mr. Eve also said that many of the black faculty members mentioned in Dr. Ketter’s letter were not eligible for tenure because they were on the staff of either the Educational Opportunity Center (EOC) or Learning Center. Dr. Ketter responded that Learning Center personnel were eligible for tenure, but that EOC instructional staff were not eligible because of a New York State law and not a University decision. While the Learning Center is a regular part of the University, EOC is a post-high school, pre-University program which give disadvantaged students college prep and trade prep courses. Dr. Ketter added that the total number of blacks on the EOC staff, and thus ineligible for tenure, was a maximum of 10 and closer to about four. This means that at least 54 of the 64 black faculty at the University are eligible for tenure, further disputing Mr. Eve’s contentions. Mr. Eve also stated that the eight recently-hired blacks on the University faculty were all lecturers at EOC or the Finding black faculty Dr. Ketter agreed that the percentage of black faculty members was far from ideal, but emphasized that the University was actively and aggressively seeking to recruit black faculty and staff. “The departments must go out of their way to make all opportunities known to minority groups,” Dr. Ketter asserted. He said that all departments are required to follow the Affirmative Action guidelines in recruiting candidates. Affirmative action in hiring, which has been mandated by the U.S. Department of Health, Education and Welfare, represents the “University’s longstanding commitment to equal employment opportunity regardless of race, color, sex, national origin, religion or age,” according to a statement by Dr. Ketter. “We’re going to make our positions known to every constituent group, and then from those groups we’re going to take the best qualified people,” said Dr. Ketter. Clifton Yearly, chairman of the History department, outlined the procedure for Affirmative Action that departments must 974 W O OSM ? jjP c - Ue.Mo'RiXy' Friday, 1 March 1974 follow in seeking new faculty and staff. Specifically, the departments must involve minority and women’s organizations, both on-campus and nationally, in soliciting new applicants. Department chairmen must account for the total number of candidates considered, and must specifically list the number of blacks, women, Indians, etc. 'Bigger bag of candidates’ Failure to follow the guidelines results in an immediate halt to any search for faculty or staff, and the department chairman is legally responsible for the violation and can be sued, Dr. Yearly explained. Affirmative Action is designed to open the competition for jobs to alt groups, to provide for a “bigger bag of good candidates from which to choose,” Dr. Yearly said. But Affirmative Action does not necessarily mean that blacks must be hired; rather it is intended to insure that the competition is open to everyone. Dr. Ketter, however, said that the success of Affirmative Action must be measured in recognizable differences in the number pf blacks hired, as well as in the legality of correct procedural steps. The University’s minority recruitment program is “continually improving,” he said, but “not as fast as 1 would like it to improve.” Some time ago, President Ketter called all the unit heads (department chairmen, provosts, etc.) into his office and “raised hell about chiseling on Affirmative Action,” Dr. Yearly reported. Additionally, Dr. Ketter threatened at a Faculty-Senate meeting to freeze faculty hiring if the unit heads didn’t get moving. No unilateral action Mr. Eve also criticized Dr. Ketter for teminating the program under which a number of job openings were set aside for nimority groups. Dr. Ketter explained that he was informed by the University’s legal counsel that the maintenance of minority hiring lines was illegal. He added that the program was cancelled after extensive debate in the Faculty-Senate, and was not a unilateral action. However, Mr. Eve contended that a similar program is currently in operation at the University of California. As he plans his proposed lawsuit against the State University of Buffalo, Assemblyman Eve is planning to meet with SUNY Chancellor Ernest Boyer to discuss of racial discrimination questions throughout the entire SUNY system. As well as suing this University, a lawsuit may be filed by the Black and Puerto Rican Caucus of the State Assembly against the statewide SUNY system for racial discrimination in hiring. �NFTA transit proposal still under construction by Seth Baskin Spectrum Staff Writer - The Niagara Frontier Transportation presented (NFTA) three Authority alternate proposals for the future rapid transit system running to the North Campus at a public forum Tuesday night. The- study, compiled by Brechtel Associates, suggested three possible routes. The first (route A), Bailey Avenue and the Boulevard Mall, would have five stations, serve approximately 45,000 riders and be the most expensive to build. The second (route E) would be the middle-cost one and would run between the Main Street and North Campuses along Millersport Highway. This would also have five stations and eventually serve 31,000 passengers daily. The third route (route C) would travel down North Bailey Avenue as far as Sheridan, but then cut diagonally toward the North Campus. This would be the least expensive to build, but have only four stations and transport an estimated 35,000 passangers daily. Mostly underground All three routes would be constructed underground from the Main Street Campus to Sheridan, but the remainder of the route would be aerial. This section, as scheduled in all three routes, will not be built directly over any residential section. “Below the aerial trains there will be parks and bicycle paths,” said Franz Veit, an architectural consultant. The stations themselves, unlike those in New York City, will have landscaping around them to cover the unappealing features and to make the structures more attractive. Escalators will be installed at the stations for easy access. An NFTA spokesman divided the noise J . factor into two categories; construction The p o s t c on st ruction . and post-construction noise in the vicinity of the aerial track was deemed “not a bad situation” by the NFTA. The underground stretch would have cushioned track beds installed to hold the noise down. The noise levels meet all federal gui4elines and fall into a category termed “Normally acceptable.” Noise during construction will be minimized by limiting the contractors to working only in the daytime during the week. A’s the best People with houses, land or businesses along the route that will have to be relocated will be compensated for their loss, NFTA officials said. Joseph Gillings, director of Planning for the Town of Amherst, said.: “Route A looks the best for two reasons; If offers the largest tax base and would cause the least disruption in the area. “The Rapid Transit System’s ridership will be between 20,000 and 40,000 riders by 1995,” predicted Walter Kulash, a planning consultant. “18-20 lanes of traffic road would be required to accommodate cars carrying an equal number of commuters between the South Campus and Sheridan,” he said. “The people will use the train system for three reasons: it will be faster, less expensive and more convenient than any other mode of travel.” the The three proposals and recommendation of route A is the result of engineering, extensive research by architectural and environmental experts. The NFTA will now decide whether to act on this recommendation and go ahead with construction, or postpone action until other proposals are drawn up. >4 BECHTEL ASSOCIATES JOOOOOOOOOOOC Announcing the OPENING OF THE Come feel the hills and feet. | •81-3400 US Elnweed Art,, MM* VAJRAYANA Restaurant VOTE!!! serving Indian Cuisine 530 Rhode Island St. (off Richmond) ;ercise sandals rest your feet in - <ws and the rises.

Friday, 1 March 1974 vs : .. - �Medicine by Jeff Deasy Spectrum Staff Writer When does a fetus become a person? How should we define death? Does society have the right to decide how the sexes should be balanced? These and other controversial questions are being raised in Richard Hull’s philosophy course, Socail and Ethical Values in Medicine. The course differs from most academic offerings because it does not give answers but instead raises specific questions. The course studies the complex and controversial moral questions of medical ethics. These issues include abortion, euthanasia, and genetic manipulation. People should not look to authorities, legal or otherwise for answers to such moral questions, Dr. Hull believes. Fetus or child? Does the decision as to whether an abortion is with the justified rest individual? Dr. Hull questioned the assumption that only cine individual is involved in abortion. If one takes the stance that a fetus is a child at conception, at least two people are involved, he explained. And if one takes into account the male partner in the conception, three people are involved. If the issue of the child’s representation is to be taken into consideration before a decision is made Hear 0 Israel For gems from the • Jewish Bible Moral values questioned the question of who will represent the child must be answered. The basic question concerning abortion, Dr. Hull believes, is: “At what stage is the fetus a child?" Along with the subsequent questions of responsibility for pregnancy and a woman’s right to control her own body, Dr. Hull’s class is discussing this basic question in-depth. Viewpoints range from “abortion is murder” to an acceptance of the Japanese practice of paying women to conceive so fetuses can be aborted and used for medical study. Parallel to the question “When is a fetus a person?” are the questions “What determines death?” and “Is a death a process or an event?” These considerations become important in medical cases where a patient may need an organ transplant from another patient who may or may not be dead, according to differing opinions of what constitutes death. In such cases the question, “Is one life more important than another?” must also be considered, Dr. Hull noted. cases. Dr. Hull suggested. What is death? a person’s request for euthanasia couldn’t a deciding board cause undue suffering while they are deliberating? “Is the person making the request competent to decide if he should undergo euthanasia?” asked Dr. Hull, Death on demand should be an informed But if approval, process, he noted. the opposite end of the spectrum death is birth. Today’s ethical controversy concerning birth involves the use of genetic manipulation. European doctors have developed a way to separate male and female sperm cells. Dr. Hull said.

In a recent case/involving euthanasia, a man, who had shot and killed his permanently crippled brother at the request of the crippled man, was acquitted on the grounds of temporary insanity. Some kind of knowledgeable panel of experts might possibly be used to decide whether euthanasia is justified in and progress is being made by others toward predicting the sex of an unborn child [see The Spectrum February 4, 1974, page onej. If couples are able to choose the sex of their offspring, what will the consequences be? In paternal societies, a decrease in the overall number of children but a sharp increase in the percentage of males might result, Dr. Hull speculated. Such a change in the population may also cause, as a direct result, the loosening of monogamous marriage laws, he suggested. If such consequences are to be avoided, “docs society have the right to decide how the sexes should be balanced?” Dr. Hull asked. The basic question concerning genetic manipulation, he believes is: ‘To what extent will there be social regulation of mating patterns and what form will such regulation take?” Dr. Hull’s course is primarily directed toward pre-med students with a sense of social concern. The student taking “Social and Ethical Values in Medicine” has a chance to come out of the classroom with a raised level of social consciousness. Yet today’s medical profession may not be ready to accept such social concern. Dr. Hull expressed the fear that medical schools may weed out students who show social concern, just as private corporations do not advance those who have socialist beliefs.

There is currently a news blackout in this area on Wounded Knee, and we must bring people here to explain events.” The events which included a talk by Ellen Movescamp, an Oglala-Sioux woman active in the Oglala-Sioux Civil Rights Organization, art exhibits and workshops dealing with Native Americans in prison, were sponsored by the Native American Cultural Awareness Organization and the Native American Studies Unit of the American Studies vice-president, Student Affairs vice-president.

At the request of the United Auto Community Workers Action Program and the city and county governments, the ATCC is making a concentrated effort to deal with this and other alleged inequities in the New York Telephone Company. Referring to themselves as “the lone phone rangers,” the ATCC has been active for almost ten years, representing the consumer at Public Service Commission rate hearings and advising the public and businesses on how to cut down on their phone costs. Chief Levine, George Consultant of the ATCC, said they began working in Buffalo in July, 1972, after the phone rates were increased for the second time in one year. The third and latest increase, which went into effect in December of last year pushed the to a up as compared to Los Angeles and $5.95 and in $4.80 rate flat monthly $11.52 San in Francisco Washington, D.C. In response to the increase, Mr. Levine has written a pamphlet other area bookstores. Entitled “How to Cut Your Buffalo Area Home Phone Bill up to $80 a Year,” the pamphlet will “give immediate guidance to Buffalo area rate payers and also give an understanding of the conflict that exists,” to try and preserve “the right to rap,” Mr. Levine said. The book explains in some detail the three rate systems available to Buffalo customers; the flat rate offering an unlimited number of calls at $11.52 a month, the Measured Service costing $7.00 which allows up to 50 calls a month, and the Budget rate at $4,03 a month plus 8.2 cents per call. It tells how to pick the best plan to suit an individual's needs. For example, if a person makes about 60 calls a month he could save over fifty dollars a year by electing to take the Measured Counselor controversy 1972, a five day program to bring the community in touch In March of coordinated was with political and cultural issues among Indians, “A lot of good interaction developed from that project,” said Mr. White.

Mr. White would like to see further expansion of Native American studies on campus, specifically through further recruitment efforts of students and development of programs, “as a liasion with the community,” a demand to which the administration has not been responsive, he claims. Another major area of controversy involves the hiring of a Native American counselor in the Equal Opportunity Program (EOF). Dr. William H.

Friday, 1 March 1974 �Wounded Knee delegate relates continued struggling of the Sioux by Linda Moskowitz Feature Editor In 1868 the United States government signed a treaty with the Sioux nation in which the Indians were granted their own area of land and were permitted to govern their people in the manner which they saw fit. Above all, it was a peace treaty between the U.S. Federal government and the Sioux people. The year 1890, however, marked one of the bloodiest massacres in Native American history at the Wounded Knee village, where 300 unarmed Indians were killed by Federal troops, in complete violation of the 1868 treaty. In 1974, the Oglala-Sioux people of the Pine Ridge reservation in South Dakota are continuing to demand that the U.S. government live up to the terms of that treaty. Although the national media has played down the events of Wounded Krtee in recerit months, a bitter factional struggle continues between the Oglala-Sioux people on the Pine Ridge reservation who_support Russell Means and the American (AIM); and Dick Wilson, the current /tribal chairman of the reservation. Ellen Movesc'amp, a Pine Ridge resident who has been active in the Wounded Knee struggle and who spoke here against the Federal government the Native American in night conjunction with Tuesday students’ presentations for the one-year anniversary of refers to Mr. Wilson the Wounded Knee occupation and his supporters as “goons.” — — Election discrepancy Last February 7, elections were held on the Pine Ridge reservation for a new tribal chairman, who essentially governs the reservation. Dick Wilson, the incumbent candidate, ran against Russell Means, who is currently on trial in St. Paul, Minnesota on an 11-count indictment stemming from the 1973 Wounded Knee disorders. Along with many others on the reservation, Ms. Movescamp believes the election was fixed in Mr. Wilson’s favor. “At 11:30 that night, Wilson was announcing his victory, with 500 votes still to be counted,” she explained. The ballot boxes were taken to Rapid City, and Ms. Movescamp claims “the last word we’ve heard is that there were more ballots in the box than there were names on the voter registration lists.” Ms. Movescamp accused Mr. Wilson and his associates of harassing those voters supporting Mr. Means, Mr. Wilson “sent his bodyguards out to white ranchers outside the reservation and had them fill out voting ballots in his favor and put them in the pool box,” Ms. Movescamp claimed. Harassment reported The outcome of the election is now by a Rapid City to be decided judge, who could declare the election Editor’s note: This statement by Oglala-Sioux Chief Fools Crow, is addressed to the American people and Federal Judge Fred Nichol, who is currently presiding over the trial of Russell Means and Dennis Banks in St. Paul, Minnesota. We are all Oglala people, landowners and traditional people. We have come to a court we don’t know, which doesn’t know us to tell everybody who will listen that we stand with our brothers Russel Means and Dennis Banks, Togther we stand with our traditions, our land, our medicine and our Treaty is backed by the U.S. government, endorsed by the John Birch Society, and also has a large construction company standing behind him. “He’s got so much going for him on the reservation,” she said, “but while the people are going down the drain, he’s getting richer, without owning even a teaspoon of dirt on that reservation.” “He just uses brute force,” she continued, “and pays his goons good money for protecting him. He gives his group of people good jobs and positions, and calls them back to the reservation. The government is sending $45 million to the Pine Ridge reservation, but it never reaches the people. The goons get the money. He knows which people are with him and which people are not.” Ms. Movescamp cited the case of a Mr. Eastman, who was supposedly sent to the reservation as a federal crime investigator, but “he’s in with them as deep as Wilson himself.” She also charged that “the FBI is with Wilson” and so Wilson’s men need not fear legal prosecution for their actions as they can “have their identities changed.” Hunting made difficult “Wilson’s men all have gun permits from the government,” she also noted, “but when one of our Indian people go hunting for rabbit or deer, the cops stop us and take the guns away. These people get punished, but the goons can go around killing people.” “We had two funerals this past Friday and Saturday, and we knew those people were murdered,” Ms. Movescamp said. “Wilson stated there won’t be any charges made, and claims they died of exposure.” Even before tribal elections, a mood of apprehension that was apparent at Pine Ridge. “Everyone knew something would happen by the 7th,” said Ms. Movescamp. “On February 1, the goons were at the tribal office all night and at the office next door, where they keep certain files. We saw them hauling out piles of papers and burning them. We couldn’t see what it was they were burning, but people were scared. They heard the men making plans and they were warned that if Russell Means bloodshed.” won the election, there would be call for new proceedings. “For some reason the judge has not yet made a decision,” continued Ms. Movescamp. “He could call for re-election or decide in favor of Russell Means, or play it as he’s been playing it and let Dick Wilson stay as the tribal chairman.” Ms. Movescamp reported further harassment of the Oglala people at Pine Ridge on February 9, two days after the election, when “Dick Wilson was seen passing out 36 rifles to his men after taking off the serial numbers, and sent them out to distribute letters to three-quarters of the reservation people, ordering them to move off the land,” she maintained. “1 don’t know if he [Wilson) will get the job done,” she commented, “because there’s too many of us, and there’s no place for the people to go. We’ve told people not to move and not to be scared but you can’t blame them for being scared when they’re being shot and intimidated in their own homes.” So far, none of the people have moved. illegal and Fear Dick Wilson is greatly feared at Pine Ridge because, according to Ms. Movescamp, he is a powerful man who Ellen Movescamp going along well, and reports that much of the government case is based on unsubstantial evidence and perjured witnesses who “never tell the truth, and get their testimony all mixed up and then admit that they’re are lying.” example of alleged false government evidence is document which was used to send for the federal marshall when the Oglala-Sioux seized the Pine Ridge reservation. Ms. Movescamp said that so far several such documents have been produced, but in three different handwritings, and with no official signature. “The government has no substantial case,” she concluded. “They had no cause to enter the reservation.” One the Impeachment efforts fail “Everyone knew,” she said, emphasizing the point. Referring to Mr. Wilson’s supporters, she explained: “Those men get drunk and sit around bragging about what they’re going to do. People really feared trouble, but just had to sit around watching this.” All attempts by the anti-Wilson Indians at Pine Ridge to remove Mr. Wilson from his office have so far failed. According to Ms. Movescamp, over 14,000 signatures were collected on a petition to impeach him, but the Federal government refused to accept it as a valid document. Ms. Movescamp claims the government thought non-reservation Indians signed the petition. She also said that people were later forced to sign affadavits stating they were forced to sign the petition under everywhere. We called our brothers and ALM_(American Indian Movement) to help us because we were being oppressed and terrorized. They answered our call. We now call upon all people to honor our people and to honor our Treaty Rights. If Dennis Banks and Russell Means go to jail for supporting the dignity of the Sioux Nation and the promises made to us, you must be ready to send us all to jail. If we cannot live with our brothers in freedom according to our ways and tradition we are ready to join them in the white man’s prison Rights. We represent not only ourselves but the Oglala Band, the Sioux Nation and concerned Indian people —Santos OGLALA SIOUX CHIEF FOOLS CROW Traditional Chief of the Oglala Nation pressure, a move which she believes was done “just to make Wilson look good.” Although the Wounded Knee occupation by Federal news issue last year at this time, the troops was a establishment press has considerably played down its coverage of all subsequent events. Ms. Movescamp believes this is due to government pressure being exerted on the media. “The FBI has visited the press,” she asserted. “We know our lines are tapped too. They don’t really want the truth known.” Government evidence contested “Even before Wounded Knee, we couldn’t get press releases off the reservation,” she continued. “The only people who got press releases out were who Dick Wilson authorized.” There were orginally over 100 additional federal cases arising out of the Wounded Knee incident, involving lesser charges against men and women who range in age from their teens to middle age. Some of the cases have been dismissed and others are still pending. Ms, Movescamp is positively optimistic about the trials of the Wounded Knee defendents. She thinks they Trials continue The more prominent Wounded Knee trials, which are being held in St. Paul, due to the less prejudicial atmosphere than South Dakota, involve the leaders of the anti-Wilson Indians, and several members of AIM. Russell Means and Dennis Banks are currently being tried. March 1 is the tentative date for the trial of the other four leaders, Clyde Bellecourt, Carter Camp, Leonard Crow Dog, and Stan Holder. Pedro Bissonette was the seventh defendant, but was allegedly killed by Bureau of Indian Affairs police on October 17, 1973. The Oglala-Sioux people want a settlement based on the 1868 treaty, Ms. Movescamp explained: “The treaty is very important, especially to the older people. It would mean we could be free to live our lives the way we used to. We could farm our land, own our own cattle and horses. We wouldn’t have to live on welfare. There would be no guns, no jails where people are handcuffed and chained.” Demands stated Another demand of the Indians is repeal of the Indian Reorganization Act of 1934, which invalidated the Indian governmental system of chiefs and instituted the tribal elective system. Ms. Movescamp and many other Indians also desire a reorganization of the Bureau of Indian Affairs, which is now a branch of the U S. Department of Interior. The department’s “oil/mineral/park interests conflict with the Indian interests,” according to a leaflet distributed by the Wounded Knee Legal Defense/Offense Committee. Another issue involved in the Wounded Knee dispute involves the organization AIM, whose members Ms. Movescamp said were invited into the reservation after the distrubances began “AIM is not guilty of the crimes they are charged with, it is the Oglala-Sioux who initiated the negotiations,” she strongly emphasized. “Dick Wilson is now turning around and starting anti-AIM groups,” Ms. Movescamp said, which she believes is wrong since the major problems at Pine Ridge involve the Oglala-Sioux people themselves, many of whom support AIM, but are not directly affiliated with the group. Speaking on behalf of the women at Pine Ridge, Ms. Movescamp emphatically concluded: “We are tired of the dictatorship, of Dick Wilson and tired of seeing our people intimidated. If he refuses to remove himself from office, we are going to physically pick him up and carry him out.” She added: “That’s what we should have done before Wounded Knee.” Friday, 1 March 1974 . The Spectrum . Page five �Through the DITORIA Looking Glas Vote today Today is the last by Barry Kaplan day for undergraduates to have a say in the composition of next year's Student Association. As we have argued all week, we believe Frank Jackalone has the knowledge, imagination and leadership to be an outstanding SA President. He is far better qualified than Bob Burrick, who has only a superficial grasp of important issues. Mr. Jackalone has exciting plans to "open up" SA to more students, revamp the farcical Student Assembly, aggressively deal with the Administration and increase the student voice on the Colleges, 4-course load and other academic issues. Regardless of your preference, however, vote. It only takes two minutes. Pressure and minority hiring Angered by the glacial progress of Affirmative Action, the federally-mandated program for aggressive recruitment of minority faculty, Buffalo Assemblyman Arthur Eve has denounced President Ketter and is planning to sue the University for racial discrimination in hiring faculty. While Mr. Eve's intentions are sound, he seems to have many of his facts wrong. Armed with misguided information, Mr. Eve has been irresponsible in making erroneous statements to the press, calling Dr. Ketter a liar, and slandering this University at budget hearings. But whether the University's 1384 faculty contains 23 blacks, as Mr. Eve claims, or64 blacks, as Dr. Ketter maintain, is irrelevant. Even by Dr. Ketter's estimate, 4.6% black faculty in a state with a 16% black population is a disgrace. Dr. Ketter has made personal efforts to get the sluggish University bureaucracy moving on Affirmative Action. He threatened a complete freeze on hiring if the provosts didn't act, and 5.6% of the faculty openings in the latest hiring period have been filled by blacks, a slight improvement. Formerly, many job openings went unpublicized and were filled by an "insider" or an old friend of a department bigwig. Affirmative Action mandates that all job openings women, must be publicized to all constituent groups applicant the most qualified with blacks, Indians, etc. being chosen from the pool of candidates. The loophole: "insiders" can still be lined up for a job months before it becomes "officially" available, so few minorities will actually be hired, despite an increased pool of applicants. But short of imposing minority hiring quotas, which are illegal, only continued pressure on each department whether the threat can negate the old of a hiring freeze or of a lawsuit prejudices in some quarters and bring about tangible results in the recruitment of minorities. A major problem, however, is that the University hires almost exclusively Ph.D's, and only from 0.8 to 2% of those in the country with Ph.D's are black. This is a Catch—22 — - — — nightmare, like not being able to get a job without a Ph.D and not being able to get into a Ph.D program without job experience. The long-range answer is to open up doctoral programs to minorities and the poor through increased financial aid, but with aid being cut back and public reluctance to fund aid programs increasing, this will be slow to change. For now, other measures of expertise must be developed for the minority student whose path to across- the-board the white Ph.D has been blocked by prejudice, and for the lower-class student simply unable to afford the expensive doctorate. A Ph.D doesn't make a good teacher, it is only the certification of two years of intensive research. Job experience private research and writing, and teaching experience at a community college or elsewhere should be equally weighed with Ph.D certification for both blacks and — whites. This would not be unlike medical and law school admissions, where recommendations, essays and other criteria are weighed more heavily for minority students than scores on Anglo-oriented, culturally biased achievement tests. Faculty standards should not be lowered; those with alternative credentials must be as qualified as those with Ph.D's. Such efforts are far from perfect, but coupled with aggressive recruitment of minorities, equal consideration of non-Ph.D expertise can help break the nightmare cycle of discrimination against minorities and the poor in getting Ph.D's perpetuating discrimination in hiring faculty. Meanwhile, Mr. Eve had better get his facts straight if he seriously intends to sue the University. But perhaps his intent was merely to pressure the Administration into aggressively minorities at this recruiting more women and predominantly-white University. For only continued pressure can translate Affirmative Action into the reality of a racially-balanced campus. Page six . The Spectrum . Friday, 1 March 1974 _ At the time when goodness reigned throughout the land and evil met its just rewards, a certain Mr. Smith went to Washington. Portrayed by a young James Stewart, he was a model citizen, a leader of impressionable American youth -as well as a fervid believer in the American system of justice and government. Through a fluke, Mr. Smith is sent to the Senate in order to fill the seat of a recently-departed gentleman. Mr. Smith’s obvious ideals, naivete, and youthful enthusiasm soon ran afoul of an insidious cabal that was attempting to despoil a beautiful valley and collect a few bucks on the side. This cabal, which incidently contained the same politicos that put Mr. Smith in the Senate, represented a cancer upon the growth of the American body politic, and all good viewers realized they would have to be defeated if the American system was to survive. Despite the fact that Mr. Smith’s political future rested upon the good graces of this syndicate, the heroic Mr. Smith singlehandedly attempted to slay this symbolic dragon. Despite abuse, slander and other assorted slings of outrageous fortune, Mr. Smith, in a dramatic climactic scene, uncovers the evil-doers, saves his good name, and cleanses the American body politic. This final scene thrilled many a young and impressionable viewer and reinforced and emphasized the virtures of America in an era which questioned many of the fundamental foundations of the American spirit. This film is an example today of what we would term a “Pollyanna Mentality.” Walt Disney studios constantly grind out the sticky stuff every year, and every year America s youth just sucks it up. Well, it’s about time that some movie-maker created a film about present-day America which would emphasize all that is good, decent, and wholesome in American life. For instance, a recent front page of The New York Times (February 26, 1974) had these following headlines: “Worsening of Slum Housing Abandonment Feared,” “Wheat Stocks Depleted,” “Price Outlook Uncertain,” “Kalmbach Pleads Guilty to Two Campaign Charges,” “State Begins Regulating Sale of Gasoline Today,” “Nixon Asserts a Criminal Offense is required for an Impeachment.” Now that the paper is filled with such drastic and shocking headlines, it is imperative that this country find a new pollyanna, and let this savior find the good under such stormy headlines. Since 1968 Richard Nixon has constantly fulfilled the role of Pollyanna for this country. If thousands of men died in a senseless and brutal war, then according to our Pollyanna, it was still less than the figures that preceded his administration. If inflation was 5%, Dickie would tell the nation that at least it wasn’t 10%, ad nauseum. Unfortunately, Dickie has been Pollyanna for so long that no one believes him anymore. As a result, there has been a nationwide search which will hopefully produce our new Pollyanna. This search for a new Pollyanna climaxed convention in Atlantic City, where the finalists gathered in three-piece grey suits and answered questions delivered by a panel of impudent snobs. As a correspondent to this convention, I would like to reproduce the answers that helped one young lady become our new Pollyanna. Q. According to The New York Times, our grain reserves are at their lowest point in years and the price of bread might reach $1 a loaf. Could you comment on this? A. Tfie low supply of wheat and the possibility of dollar-a-loaf bread is an excellent situation for the American people. We charitably sold odr wheat at a low price to the Russians in order to combat the sweeping famine that has ravaged that forsaken country. By sacrificing, this country will learn self-discipline, and the people will lose thousands of pounds of ugly fat. Let them eat at a meat. Q. A grave problem has been the rising number of abandoned buildings in the heart of our central cities. Could you comment upon that situation? A. This is the only solution to the problem of urban congestion in the central cities. Most of these abandoned homes used to be slums; now that these people have moved out, there are no problems whatsoever with overcrowding, disease, parking and other urban ills. Q. Recent allegations have insinuated that the President of the United States might have initiated illegal acts or, at the very least, used the power of his office to cover up illegal actions by subordinates. How could you justify this? A. America has long been considered the land of equal opportunity and this means that the highest office of the land is open to all including crooks. If the highest office groups land of this was not open to crooks, half of the What candidates would have to drop out would happen to our country if only honest men would run our country? Pure chaos, that’s what! Q. America has been facing a shortage of energy. This committee cannot see how you can see a bright side to that crisis. Can you? A. Of course 1 can. Waiting on gas lines has taught Americans patience,' brought families together, ended squabbles over car privileges, decreased drag racing, and ended blue belly button lint in children over ten. Q. Many feel that America has reached its apex and is now on the long road downhill. Do you feel this way, and what do you consider good in America today? A. I think America, if it gives Richard Nixon the power to rule for the rest of his life, will continue on its path of greatness.

Editorial policy is determined by the Among the risks any candidate must take in running for political office is the possibility of the “post-endorsement blues” contracting nervous affliction appears in This syndrome. candidates (and their advocates) who fail to secure the endorsement of a particular publication. It has been demonstrated, especially during the course of Student Association election campaigns, that ‘'post-endorsement blues” often precedes a noticeable lack of “post-endorsement etiquette.” Thus, while the endorsed candidates (and their advocates) are flattered and excited by the extra boost to their campaigns, the “losers” parade around Norton Union with droopy faces, attempting to rationalize the unfavorable editorial comments at the expense of the newspaper’s “credibility.” It is extremely unfortunate that several candidates (and their advocates) found it necessary to resort to cheap accusations and slander when the publication’s editorial endorsements and ballots were officially revealed. Charging that there had been instances of unfairness and partiality, the sore-losers were obviously assuming airs of indifference to mask their wounded prides. One key contender declared outright that “the credibility of [one of the papers] had been reduced to nothing,” but when asked to justify this statement, the person could only point to specific sentences in the editorial which he felt were grossly unjust to him. Such an attack on a publication can only be taken as a personal insult to the integrity of the editors. Impertinent slips of the tongue only confirm doubts and strengthen the case against these candidates. One editor even received flack while the pledge of confidentiality was still in effect. Somehow the endorsement results leaked out and inflamed individuals were already calling the editor and either demanding explanations or alluding to his insanity. Once the editorial was common knowledge, some candidates felt they mistaken, and had been misquoted, misrepresented by distortions and lies. However, it should be emphasized that an editorial Is solely opinion, not fact, and should be taken as such. More important, opinions are not infallible and mistakes can be made. But it is one thing to criticize a publication for bias in supposedly “objective” news stories, as opposed ' from the editorial which the students should be informed of. Please don’t try to review the most active and successful year of recent Student Association history in half an editorial. missing opinionated editorials. The wrath of vindictive candidates should not be channelled into denouncing the objectivity of any publication as a whole because of its editorial stance. Let’s face it: Editorials are not objective. They do not reflect the judgment of anyone but the authors. If a candidate cannot bear to be criticized, then he is on the wrong end of the elections. One general question that arises is whether the newspapers should have so much influence in determining the outcome of the SA elections through editorial coverage. Some have argued that valid endorsements cannot be decided solely on the basis of one interview. In response, no one is forcing anyone to agree with a publication’s editorial opinion. In fact, accepting a candidate solely on good faith without formulating personal opinion is like singing your name to a legal contract without reading it first. Unfortunately, there isn’t enough time to thoroughly assess the qualifications of each candidate. Personal references would only increase the chances of bias. Thus, the publications are more or less restricted to an extensive interview format, during which time every political hopeful is required to answer a standard set of questions pertaining to his chosen position. While past experinece is certainly taken into account, the fairest way to compare the candidates is by evaluating their responses to the same important questions. Most of the potential voting population in SA elections is unfamiliar with the candidates and even some of the issues. On the other hand, since the publications are familiar with both, they can make informed endorsements based on facts. As a result, students would be less inclined to pick names by such thoughtless means as closing their eyes and pulling a lever. to by Amy Dunkin effectiveness of members of the S.A.

Election time is inevitably disturbed by fiery tempers and sensitive feelings. But in every election there is a winner and a loser. The same for endorsements. And a loser who beats the “post-endorsement blues” and comes out smiling only places himself higher in the estimation of his critics. Editorin-Chief Friday, 1 March 1974 . The Spectrum .

The Spectrum . Friday, 1 March 1974 34HB08KC �by Jay Boyar Arts Editor Genre films (and stories) are at best clever but inspired. Science fiction, horror yarns, war stories, "true" romances, and detective tales almost by are not what people mean when they definition talk about good literature. If a story in a particular genre is good literature, people stop thinking about — — it as a part of that genre. 1984 is, in a sense, science fiction but no one really calls it that. Strictly speaking, The Great Gatsby is a romance tale but it's so much more. Who would seriously refer to Hamlet as a ghost story? These works have gone way past their particular genres into that vast, hot, rocky sea called "art." — — A middle ground exists between the simple genre piece and the artistic achievement. It is the affectionate parody. It is not essentially a formula story because it is highly conscious of and practically giddy about its form, yet it isn't a distinct work of art because its charm and acceptance are so firmly dependent on the audience's familiarity with obscure, even trivial conventions. As The Long Goodbye begins, it seems like there is nothing especially unconventional about it. Elliot Gould, as gumshoe Philip Marlowe, seems like the ordinary run of movie detectives. Soon the characterization becomes comic, however. Gould, looking his thinnest in a long while, appears sans moustache with shortish hair. For once, he is practically sexless. He makes his way through the movie mumbling as if he'd been through the Bing Crosby (or Bill Cosby) school of cool. Every so often, private dick Marlowe strikes up a match and it blazes like some puny torch. Then he lights a slender, white cigarette which constantly hangs from his mouth as if it were a badge of office or an extension of his lip. Around his neck hangs a red "JCPenny" tie. and jarring, it is Marlowe. Gould's characterization is witty and perceptive. He catches all the hallmarks of the tracitional private eye, and parodies them not quite to the point of absurdity. You find yourself waiting in fear for that old, "essential Gould" to poke his nose through the tissue-thin smokey joke of a character, but it never happens. With this film, Gould shows more control and less self-indulgence than ever before. Cheap More conventions Current film In his latest film, The Long Goodbye, director Robert Altman continues his career of affectionate parodies. While in one sense, Altman has been making genre films for years, in another sense, he has never made one. Altman's parodies are meta-genre movies Brewster McCloud, his nuttiest and mostromantic film to date, set the trend by involving parodies of practically everything. His M*A*S*H was a war story like no other. McCabe and Mrs Miller could be called a western, and Images a horror tale. Each of his films is radically different from the genre it lampoons; none of his movies uses the traditional focus of the form. Vet, they do retain, in some measure, the conventions and settings. War stories depend on the tension between the Americans and the enemy. M*A'S*H made the enemy, and turned the true-blue G.I.'s the pernicious, drafted doctors into heroes. How could you ever take a conventional war story seriously again, after M*A "S'HI McCabe and Mrs. Miller was a Western, but its heroes smoked opium and ran a whore-house. Just try to imagine the Duke in such a flick. Even his horse would feel uneasy in those parts. Sweetheart By displacing one's feelings and reference points, Altman mashes the forms he kids forever. He is not malicious; I think he loves the kinds of stories he invalidates. He has an intimate lover's knowledge of the forms he takes to bed and tickles. It's just that after a night with him, they've pretty much had it for good. Based on the book by Raymond Chandler, The Long Goodbye is a tribute (read: farewell) to the detective story form that Edgar Allan Poe invented. Detective stories, in general, have at their core the solution of a mystery. This solution is uncovered by concentration on detail. Intricate patterns of clues are discovered by the detective. Sporting a Sherlock HJmsian magnifying glass, he spots things that everyone else overlooks, and he assembles the puzzle-pieces with similar skill. In most traditional detective stories, a rogue's the gallery of suspects is trotted before the viewer trick is to identify the killer and determine his modus operand! before the writer (through his brilliant detective-hero) reveals the how and who and why and where and when. What? — Following the standard detective-story form, there is a crime (a murder, more specifically) and those quirky Dickensian characters, who always people such stories begin to appear. In traditional detective tales, characters and incidents are introduced for one of two reasons; a) to give the viewer clues about the crime under investigation, or b) to act as red herrings thus helping to obfuscate the real crime. Midway in this film, though, you begin to realize that the murder-mystery has become just so much window-dressing. The plot becomes a function of the characters, instead of the other way around. The details of plot and character that usually serve as clues and ploys become the focus. Slowly, the whole structure of the detective story falls apart at the seams Henry Gibson, Laugh-In alumnus, surfaces as a demented quack with a firey temper and an unsettling voice. Clinical and disgustingly well-dressed, he stands around in several scenes like a statue set to explode. Another strange person As an aging alcoholic writer, Sterling Hayden is loud and blustery. His mountain-like, bearded face Marlowe a hangs out of the screen, chance to look small and cagey. Other characters are just as unusual and independent of plot. There's a pudgy, snappy fellow who drives Marlowe home from jail near the picture's beginning we never see him again. There are hokey, practically cartoonish Mexican officials, and a grim, pretentious hood. And just a whole bunch more. — Hopefully, detective story enthusiasts will not take offense at this film, because they will be the only ones capable of getting most of the "in" jokes made at the expense of the genre. This is, in fact, an unavoidable problem of the film for most people. We can not be expected to pick up references to a trivial writing tradition. We might feel ashamed for missing jokes made about some more general or scholarly topic. The movie's theme song also called The Long Goodbye, pipes up in the movie everywhere, from being on the radio to being the song played by a Mexican funeral's band. Haunting and beautiful, at times self-mocking, it sets the tone for the whole film. You can hear it in the film at the Kensington theater. .V ' * �UUAB Coffeehouse Rag Ragtime music was the rage of the United States until 1917, the year America went to war and the year the "King of Ragtime," Scott Joplin, died. Ragtime has come back to haunt much of America's music; it has contributed to jazz, honky-tonk, boogie-woogie, and stride piano. All are variations and deviants of the rag tradition. It was the homebase for America's first "serious black composer;" with Scott Joplin's ever popular "Maple Leaf Rag" as will as his less well known (or understood) ragtime opera "Treemonisha." It is also homebase for one of our country's outstanding eccentric musicians: Jelly Roll Morton.. The spirit of the ragtime era with its syncopated rhythms and pretty melodies will be captured this weekend in the UUAB Coffeehouse with the presentation of three ragtime styles. Heading the bill is guitarist Eric Schoenberg. Eric will amaze one and all with his arrangments of "Living in the Country" and virtuoso banjo performance and Eric Kaufman and Ewan Cohen will be on hand to give folks some fine examples of that style with 'The Smiler," and possiblly a ragtime song such as "Hollo My Baby." All in all the weekend should be a well-balanced, quality presentation of a style .of music that many people have become interested in again over the past three years yia piano players such as William Bofcomb and Joshua Rifkin.

You should start considering this factor when you first move into an apartment or when you first purchase an audio system. If at all possible, conceal your audio equipment at night. Don't install down equipment where it is plainly visible through a window. Bolting components or installing them in cabinetry is also advisable. If you would be equally happy with your system in the bedroom rather than the living room, it is a good precaution to locate it there. Not every burglary is a total surprise to the victim.

Trends are what make the music business and sometimes the music. Joni Mitchell has always managed to ignore the trends and make her own unique kind of music. Court and Spark has Joni's unmistakable mark on it, in the tradition part of that tradition being started six albums ago that each new album becomes her best to date. Basically the same style, the same Joni, just better. And so it is with this one. Part of the reason, of course, is its freshness. But this album is also the latest reflection of Joni Mitchell's constant expansion in all the facets of her music. Much more importantly, it's the first album in which she steps outside her own style. In fact, it seems as if Joni has been swayed, just slightly, by the outside music world. There are two cuts on this record where Joni really tries on some new clothes: "Raised on Robbery" and 'Twisted." "Raised on Robbery" is the rock and roll song getting so much air play. Here lies the danger, it's so undeniably commercial (destined for the number one spot). It's also undeniably a great song. The music is tight and swinging, with Robbie Robertson there to give it that extra punch. The lyrics are by far the raunchiest she's ever written, and the slinky, slightly drunk vocal rendition fits in perfectly. "I'm a pretty good cook. I'm sitting on my — everyone’s experience. However, there are a few cuts on this one that literally chilled me to the bone ("The Same Situation" and "Down to You," to name a few). It's impossible for me to even single out a verse to quote here, because each song's fully beauty can only be appreciated as an integrated whole. In fact, the record itself works as an integrated whole one song blends into the next so naturally, sometimes you don't even notice where one ends and the other begins. There are hints on Court and Spark that Joni is moving in a new direction. It's not those two cuts that make me say this as much as the overall instrumentation.

'Twisted" is even more shocking. It's the first song she's recorded that she hasn't written herself. It's also a straight jazz tune. Joni has really done a superlative vocal here, proving she can scatdoodlyat with the best of them. As for the rest of the album, the music is in the same mode we've come to recognize as only hers. Evidence of the refinement of her artistic ability is present everywhere. The musical structure of her songs and arrangements are more subtle and complex (watch out for the arrangement on "Down to You"). The ability to blend the mood of the lyrics with the music and vocal; the expertise on piano and guitar; the incredible vocal control of all her many voices (whether it's the high, breathless lady of "Help Me" or the low, melancholy woman in "People's Parties") all of these talents are already polished to a brilliant sheen, but just slightly more dazzling. And the lyrics. Songs of love and freedom, always her special field. At this point, it would be ridiculous to say her lyrics have improved, because they've always been excellent. Poetry in the realm of — electric guitar on three or four. This is quite a change for her, and opens a wide area of speculation. Does it mean Joni is moving into the clutches of commercial music? Or is it only that she is finally beginning to branch out? As far as I can see, she has the situation under control as of now. After all this time, I am hopeful that she's strong enough and wise enough to resist the temptations of the "starmaker machine." These questions will only be answered by her next album, which probably won't be out until next year. So for now, go down to the Record Co-op and treat yourself to Court and Spark .

You will be disappointed. You will not be terrified. You will not turn on any lights to ward off your fear. You will not squirm in bed that night. Perhaps you will be mildly amused. You will judge the script to be mediocre in quality. It will seem to be something that was considered creative years ago. Maybe you've heard something like it somewhere before. The material and concepts will not be fresh enough to make you scared. What you will do is to use your imagination. You may find that to be difficult. It may be hard for you to concentrate on the plot because you have been trained to see and not to hear. You normally have everything thoroughly explained to you. You are accustomed to ystery Theater "Welcome to the sound of suspense, the fear you can hear." The narrator beckons you. His voice guides you into a scene, one that involves the world of the imagination. Other recognizable sounds take hold. Doors close, floors creak, characters speak. Your mind hallucinates and conjures up the faces and the settings. You have drifted to a time when entertainment permitted the audience to participate. You are no longer forced to take a passive role, because whatever you see is there because you put it there. Colors are your choice. Sizes are for you to select. Almost every shape and detail is left up to you. You need not be in a fantasy "Wonderland" to experience such amusement because the CBS Radio Network proveds it for you, allowing you to time travel to the golden days of radio. You can experience this reincarnation of radio drama by tuning in to WBEN Radio, 930 AM, any night at 11:30 to hear the CBS Radio Mystery Theater. rector and Bergman Two Bozos are incognizant Editor's Note: This is a simple review of what happened last Friday night in the Fillmore when Proctor and Room Bergman, two ace-bozoids from the Firesign Theater, began their rampage through the city of Buffalo's. There will be a second part to this never-ending saga of word death which will come in the form of an interview with bayed, ships with tattooed sails were thrown at them, lines from albums were shouted out.

The music filled cushions. Check talking movies and color TV, where you have no control of what goes on. You will find that this radio show uses cheap tricks to convey its messages. The sound effects and musical background will seem over-enunciated. But that's because you will hear it on a radio constructed from modern technology. You may not like the CBS Radio Mystery Theater. Perhaps that is because it is not the best representation of an old radio drama. Perhaps it would never have lasted even back then. But the show gives you the privilege to simulate how it might have been. Even if you do not become an avid follower, the show merits that you sample it once and keep it or something like it on the air so the radio drama remains alive and imaginations can once again be developed. —Mark Kirschenbaum like the Beatles, there are four of them crawling on the floor making records about stolen high future schools, fairs, and transcendental dectives. Proctor and Bergman took off on their own merely to get away from their dear friends they made their own hilarious album, BUT the Firesign Theater is not dead. and anyone who saw the concert our time, with many references to Firesign favorites, not-so-favorites, and boos and hisses. The boos came whenever they would make a joke that people thought they could make themselves, and in a way it's the same as applause, clapping your ears together. They did "Schools Open Drive Carefully; Schools Closed Drive Carefully" and Friday night knows that Phil and Peter are not in serious condition "Anybody on a Bike Today is Crazy or Nuts." They dressed in costumes, Phil as a box of assorted peanuts, Peter as a glass on the table. They worked hard, — — — ... Octet and Firedog flown in from Pear Harbor.

A close look at these two men reveals that they are two men looking closely, for police are chasing them. They are escaped ushers from the Firesign Theater. The Firesign Theater formed in 1967 around a radio show Bergman hosted out west. Just the Boos and hisses It was a good crowd for them and a bit crowded for everyone else.

The Bulls must defeat and tonight Broncos the tomorrow by a margin of seven goals or greater in order to be assured a trip to the CCHA playoffs in St. Louis next weekend. Should Buffalo outscore Western Michigan by six goals, the series would be deadlocked and the St. Louis bid would be decided on the basis of a coin flip. Buffalo will be without leading point producer John Stranges and top defensemen Mark Sylvester and Mike Perry for Friday night’s contest. Each was handed a one-game suspension by CCHA Jacoby Commissioner Fred following an altercation at Western Michigan in January. Two Bulls are also among the walking wounded, with the possibility of wing Mike Kelly right participating in the game listed as “questionable” and defenseman Paul Songin’s chances of seeing action were termed “probable.” The Broncos will be without their , leading goal scorer, Rob Hodge, who suffered a knee injury earlier in the season. Buffalo coach Ed Wright disclosed his plans for Friday’s contest. “We’re moving Mike Klym back [on defense],” said Wright. The Bulls’ high-scoring performance [at Western Michigan) was good,” recalled Wright about the 7-5 and 5-1 losses suffered by the Bulls. “The officiating did greatly affect the outcome of the games. 1 think that factor alone will make the difference. At Western Michigan, the officials took the play out of the hands of the players,” Wright to curl a forward around the opposing defense and pass him the puck to create a breakaway. “Their winger on the one side was hanging very high,” Wright remarked. “We have to have our men in position so our defense doesn’t have to pull away from the blue line.” Joining Stranges, Poirier and Kelly in making their final appearances at home will be seniors Tom Schratz and Bill Reid. by Barry Rubin 103-63 loss at Clark Hall Special to The Spectrum Clinching the game off the bench offensively for Buffalo was Editor’s note: Barry Rubin, Otis Horne.

The key play for Buffalo came with 59 seconds to go when Horne leaped high and tapped in a missed free throw attempt by Domzalski to give the Bulls a four point lead. When Stony Brook took over on offense, Horne drew a key charging foul to regain possession for Buffalo. Domzalski then iced Buffalo’s maiden road win, converting both ends of a one-and-one foul situation with ten seconds to play. The Bulls, who stretched their series mark with Stony Brook to 5-0, finish the season Saturday at Rochester and Monday at Buffalo State. ROOMMATE WANTED STEREO SYSTEM: 25 watts rms AM/FM receiver.

They’re bright, good-looking, middle-class kids, the way they were when they .came here in September. But they’re lining up for the acid test to discover the wonders and nightmares of mind travel for themselves. At one time, LSD was the most mysterious, exotic and feared chemical in the-country, synonomous with Timothy Leary San Francisco, Merry Pranksters and the Grateful Dead. It was, for many, the drug symbol of the entire youth movement , and counterculture of the ’60’s. That time is over. The passive, complacent ’70’s have taken the novelty out of hallucinogenic drugs and replaced it with a self-submitting nonchalance, “Dreaded LSD” is taking its place among the common phenomena of the recent past. “Less people are talking about it,” commented Mike Rada, public relations coordinator for the University’s 24-hour student-run crisis center. “And more people are doing it for themselves. It’s many people are Broadened base Primarily a drug crisis intervention center for years, Sunshine House, at 106 Winspear Ave., has recently shifted its emphasis to include all sorts of emotional crises. Presently, about 35% of all calls are drug-related, Mr. Rada said. “LSD night” was one exceptionally warm Saturday evening last November, It was the last really free weekend before finals would become the inescapable reality of the future, and many students didn’t hesitate to take advantage. Contingents of trippers roamed the Governors dorms and as Alan Harrington described it, there was that Alice-in-Wonderland madhouse quality about it. It was an absurd, night-long continuum of far away, slightly afraid gazes with occasional outbursts of “cosmic”-laughter. People, strangers, came and went until dawn. “1 did it definitely for the experience, and it was different from anything I had done before,” explained a freshman who tripped for the first time last semester. “It wasn’t peer pressure, at least I don’t think so; it was something I wanted to do for myself,” he said. “Many students say to themselves, ‘I’m happy, so why can’t I be happier,’ so they drop acid,” said Mr. Rada. “People are always looking for more pleasure.” Tripping high “There’s always an upsurge right after Christmas and Easter vacations when there’s no pressure, you have time, so you SA candidates hold first public lectio by Sparky Alzamora Spectrum Suff Writer In the first public forum since the Student Association (SA) elections began, candidates running for SA office attempted to present their views Monday before a noisy and> largely restless audience in Haas Lounge. Danny Rosenfeld, an independent hopeful for the SA Presidency, began the forum by commenting on one of the many problems of the SA; small turnouts. He complained that he did not know about the forum until a few days ago, and was therefore “unprepared.” Mr. Rosenfeld said that the elections were run poorly and ultimately were “controlled by the newspapers.” The publications “always manage to come out ahead,” he criticized. Bob Burrick, Presidential candidate of the Focus party, spoke next and declared that his party’s theme was “realism.” He said that he was “surprised at The Spectrum ,” which failed to endorse him, and called the newspaper’s criticisms of his candidacy an “untruth,” Intramural increase Mr. Burrick said his party endorsed “strong undergraduate academic organizations,” labelling previous student committees “rubber stamps.” The Speakers that the Focus the Colleges was the only and published stand” on that issue of the election campaign. In other issues, Mr. Burrick announced a four-point plan for athletics, strongly advocating an increase in the athletic budget which would accommodate intramurals and a commitment to women’s sports. Mr. Burrick theA gave the floor to Sal Napoli, the Focus candidate for Treasurer, who bitterly criticized The Spectrum and its endorsement procedures. Mr. Napoli declared that the “accusations made against me are dead wrong.” Discussing the situation further, he claimed that no candidate running against him “has the Bureau proposal “printed chairman said on experience” he has obtained in his two years as treasurer of Schussmeisters Ski Club. use it,” explained Mr. Rada. “Last week the number of calls [related to bad trips] was phenomenal.” Contrary to recent speculation from professionals and non-professionals that the use of hallucinogens is decreasing on a national scale, their use at this both —continued on page 2— rum Mr. Napoli complained that while Mike the Nora party’s can didate'for Treasurer, received The Spectrum's endorsement, he was still cited for a lack of personal diplomacy. “Would it take longer for me to leam a few facts as to who’s who on top,” Mr. Napoli asked, “or for my Phillips, opponent to change his personality?” The Revolutionary Communist Youth’s (RCY) candidate for President, Ellen Haskin, was the next speaker. “A University is not an ivory tower and not isolated from society,” Ms. Haskin declared, “but fundamental reforms are impossible.” In order to sublimate the current “bourgeois social order,” she said that it was imperative to “attack through a Socialist revolution.” Ms. Haskin then called for no budget cuts and open admissions for all students plus a stipend. Besides wanting to abolish the Administration, Ms. Haskin favored the “unionization of teachers and campus workers.” ‘It’s their money’ Frank Jackalone, candidate for SA President on the Nova ticket, then discussed “the role of SA on campus.” Student Association “has not really made an attempt to reach the students,” he said. Mr. Jackalone declared that his party’s goal was to “create a new student voice on campus.” Outlining several of Nova’s primary proposals, Mr. Jackalone said that he would insure the student voice was listened to by the Administration. He said he would bring his stands to Dr. Ketter “in order to insure student rights.” Commenting on mandatory student fees, Mr. Jackalone strongly urged students “to demand to know how the money is being spent.” „ Mr. Jackalone, presently an Assemblyman and SA executive committee member, promised more recreational activities for the Amherst Campus because “more people will be assimilating into this area” by next year. Mr. Jackalone repeatedly emphasized the theme of his campaign: “SA has to represent what the students want.” Speaking quite forcefully was Scott Salimando, the Nova party’s vice presidential candidate. Mr. Salimando said his talk was to “get the Student Assembly to represent you once again. I want to set up open lines of communication and cooperation” between the Assembly and the students, he said. Mr. Salimando indicated he would use the public information facilities more intensively to inform students. The present Student Assembly “caters to an elite group of people” who are the — continued on page 2— �LSD. :r —contlm page r T. ' •' * University does not appear to be markedly declined. LSD in all forms and qualities is readily available on campus. If the laws of supply and demand operate here, they do not indicate a decrease in demand. However, there are fewer calls from bad trippers now than two years ago, Sunshine House reports. Acid, however, is not threatening alcohol and marijuana in popularity. Its use is still confined to a minority of students. Beer, on the other hand, is more frequently imbibed than ice water, while many students favor Pernod, Tequila and Southern Comfort among the harder drinks. Wine, both cheap and expensive, is also a staple for many. Marijuana is not only a fact of life but, for many, a way of life. Its sweet scent mingles with dormitory air all hours of the day. Many first-time trippers arc freshman who include acid among the new experiences they want to have at school. Several have discovered that dropping LSD is often not without consequences. For some, it is a disaster. One freshman living at Amherst was arrested last month for allegedly selling l6 hits of LSD to a narcotics officer in the Record Runner at University Plaza on two different occasions. The arrest was made at Governors dorms by the Amherst police. Stiff penalties Possession of 25 milligrams or sale of 5 milligrams .of LSD is a class A-II Felony, carrying a maximum prison term of life and a minimum of 6 to 8-1/3 years in jail. Any person convicted of a class A-II felony must serve at least 6 years in prison. The Amherst student, now out on bail, faces up to 14 years imprisonment. Aside from legal consequences, there is always the possibility of a bad trip. People bumming out continually require assistance extending beyond the reassurances of be sent to help. “Tripping is such an exact thing,” he maintained, “that one wrong word can mess up a tripper. Most of the problems with people tripping is what other well-meaning people do to them. A friend means nothing to a person who is tripping.” '* • >. * v • *■. Editor’s note: Sunshine House offers the following advice on what to do when someone is having a bad acid trip. Since it is hard for even friends to calm down someone having a bad trip, they suggest first calling the trained personnel at Sunshine House (831-4046}.- Preventive medicine He continued: “It is most important to provide a non-threatening environment and to take away anything that might scare them. There are little things to watch out for, little things that can mess up a trip. People bum out on red sweaters, or maybe a dog lying in the comer of the room that gets up and starts to bark.’ “There is a doctor on call 24 hours a day, and we know people at the hospitals and the ambulance drivers if they are necessary. It’s just a hell of a lot better if there’s someone there who knows what he’s doing,” he added. Services from Sunshine House are free, strictly confidential, and in no case are the police ever contacted, Mr. Rada 1 Try to get the tripper as physically comfortable as possible. If something in the environment is upsetting him, get it removed. It’s very good if a trusted friend can 2 stay with the tripper. He might even hold him and assure him. 3 The tripper should be reassured that he has not lost his mind, and that the bad trip will pass. Statements such as “It’s only a bad trip; don’t worry; it’s going to pass,” or “it’s only the drug you took and it will end soon” are helpful. 4 People on bad trips frequently feel that they are in some sense out of control. One should emphasize that the tripper has more control than he - — - emphasized. Scientific study of LSD fluctuates according to media coverage, rather than any genuine interest in resolving unanswered questions. The spate of LSD research in the late 1960’s was inconclusive, and for the most part ended when media “experts” announced the death of the LSD Age. Several scientists gave up projects in disgust, citing harrassment and an oppressive social climate. Some scientists, however, have recently given LSD to dying patients, and reported that they became calm, at peace with the universe, and prepared to meet their deaths. Election forum... Apathy noted The last SA Presidential candidate to speak was independent Mike Koffler. Mr. s y ‘ * - •individuals emotionally disturbed, in crisis situations, insecure environments, or unsupervised settings.” “Psychotic episodes and suicidal behavior, while rare, have occurred in'these settings. In controlled, supervised situations, they do not occur,” the report asserted. “Thus, the concerns which led to the discontinuation of research are unsubstantiated,” it continued, “and the type of controlled research discussed above could be resumed without undue danger to followed the formal presentation of views was chaotic in the respect that no one really knew to whom the specific questions were directed. Most of the candidates expressed his opinions rather briefly, citing apathy as the cause of current SA problems. He said that he had “run into a wall” because of the publications’ disinterest in his candidacy. “I’m a new candidate and I want change,” he declared. Koffler merely restated their party platform, although a small debate occurred between the two Presidential candidates of Focus and Nova. Mr. Burrick Katz, an independent candidate for Student Rights coordinator, praised the “new programs” of the current SA administration, citing the investigations of the Bookstore and Food Service in Larry ‘ • \s *» 5 In some cases, the tripper will improve following a discussion about the bad trip. This discussion might recognize that some parts of the trip are frightening, while others might be positive.

Mr. Jackalone said that he regretted that Nova was not ‘"calling for open membership,” but that “channeling people into direct areas” was a more effective means of achieving student representation. Mr. Jackalone’s plan to revamp the Student Assembly would abolish 40 signature petitioners as members, but recruit students to serve on strengthened committees by specific area of interest. Such a revamped Assembly would solicit “more support” by the average students, Mr. Jackalone argued.

The above statement illustrates one main reason why increased interest is Prisoner experiments There are four main areas of “attack” focusing on new methods of male atmosphere the available for male contraception: 1) sperm contraception.

Of the 25 new contraceptive methods being tested presently by the World Population Council, only five are “male” methods, according* to Dr. Scherra of the Population Council’s Biomedical Division. Those methods that have been tested on male subjects have met with little success ? 'f irX‘ "iVV f j '.V so far. The development of effective V7»** contraceptive methods for men is limited by inadequate scientific knowledge about the workings of the male reproductive system, a situation which some people believe is inexcusable in today’s highly technological society.

However, recent experiments have indicated that when used in combination, testosterone and some progestogens may effectively inhibit sperm production without producing the undesirable side-effects caused by either alone. While the progestogens may be administered either orally or by injection, testosterone is metabolized by the liver when taken orally and therefore must be injected or implanted under the skin on the chest. “This important finding suggests that it may be possible to derive a male contraceptive method based on hormonal - y. : : • • <•'.*/ '• ‘More alternatives’ At an earlier time, the women’s movement demanded access to birth control devices as part of a woman’s right to decide when to have children.

Our Bodies, Ourselves, widely accepted as the manual of the women’s movement, states: “Women suspect that male research scientists would be unwilling to offer man a contraceptive that exposed them to as many side effects and potential risks as the pill or even the IUD does to women.” “The major research being done is still with female contraception,” said Jean Hutchinson of Buffalo Planned Parenthood’s education department. However, people are more prepared to accept male contraceptives now than they used to be, she believes. Explaining that the present choice of contraceptive methods is limited, Ms. Hutchinson asserted: “A couple should have more alternatives.” Surgical methods “The simple fact is that the number of targets is more limited in males than females,” writes Sheldon J. Segal, referring to contraceptive attacks on_ the reproductive system. Mr. Segal, vice-president of World Population Council and Director of its Biomedical Division, also noted in an article in Family Planning Perspectives that until recently, the most widely used birth control methods were withdrawal and “male” methods condoms. ... — t* ‘Ditcwt - • • it ; eOOl*N5KV the vas, the duct which leads sperm into the seminal fluid; and 4) the chemical constitution of the seminal fluid. Some current research is focusing on how spermatozoa move through the reproductive tracts and what constitutes the sperm’s fertilizing capacity, phenomena which are not completely understood now. There have been many failures in the attempt to produce a safe male contraceptive. Experiments were performed with “volunteers among penitentiary prisoners” (according to Family Planning Perspectives, July, 1972) in which subjects injested chemicals which successfully suppressed their sperm count. The effects even proved reversible, but the injested chemical reinforced the effects of consumed alcohol severe dizziness, vomiting, and loss of balance. Also, genetically-damaged spermatozoa were later found in some subjects. — Hormonal suppression The use of progestogens and testosterone, synthetic substances which produce the same bodily effects as natural hormones, has been tested for suppressing sperm production. Used separately, both produce serious side-effects, including loss of sex drive, increase in the weight of the “Phut, in America “Stf 0*mfuden.

Frick, urologist-researcher at the- University of Innsbruck, Austria. Dr. Frick is part of the Population Council’s International Committee for Contraceptive Research, a group of six specially-skilled physician-scientists from different countries, all men, who are undertaking the specific task of developing “male” contraceptives. Clinical studies Some long-term studies with the testosterone/progestogen combination are being done on monkeys and rats in New York State. Although the findings seem to be an important breakthrough, this method remains in the early experimental stage, having been tested on only 51 human subjects and sometimes producing inconsistent results. While the vasectomy has recently become more widely used as a birth control method, its reversibility cannot be guaranteed. In Textbook of Contraceptive Practice, John Peel and Malcolm Potts write; “The incidence of reversibility depends on the experience of the surgeon, the technique used, and most important, the form of the original operation.” Noting that young men that it is want to risk vasectomy, Ms. Hutchinson of Planned Parenthood predicted: “If we can come up with a sound, reversible vasectomy, 1*11 think well do hot see a change.” Reversible vasectomy? Dr. Scherra of die Population Council told of new attempts to create a reversible “vasocclusion,” in which the vas is pinched or plugged, instead of being cut as in a Other attempted surgical approaches have proven either contraceptively ineffective or not adequately reversible, he said. Heat has been suggested as a method of reducing the sperm count. The scrotum, which acts as an air-conditioner for the manufacture of sperm, has a temperature of 6 degrees lower than body temperature. When this temperature is raised, the mortality rate of the sperm increases and sperm are not ideally produced. Other suggestions which have not been clinically tested arc X-ray, diathermy, ultrasonic sound, and laser beams. Asked whether, any research into male contraception is occuring now at this University, Robert Fitzpatrick, vice-president for Research here, said he knows of none “specifically identified as such,” although there is some biochemical research that may be related. A spokesman for Meyer Memorial Hospital said there is presently no research being done in urology there due to lack of funds. vasectomy. Tight funding “Funding is very, very tight” for contraceptive research, said Dr. Scherra of the Population Council. There are four large “public sector” groups who use public monies to support public contraceptive programs: 1)TJ.S. Agency of International Development (AID); 2) National Institute of Health (NIH), also a U.S. agency; 3) World Health Organization (WHO); and 4) International Committee for Contraceptive Research (ICCR), Dr. Scherra explained. The newly-proposed Federal budget for 1975 allows no increases for AID or NIH, according to Mr. Scherra. WHO and ICCR are funded partly by grants from the Rockefeller Foundation and Ford Foundation, he explained. Medical revolution “Basic research in biology and allied medical fields has just gone through a revolution and, to use the knowledge to develop new and better contraceptive methods, a great deal of additional funding will be needed,” said Dr. Scherra. However, he added: “It doesn’t look as if anyone is going to provide it.” The $20-25 million spent directly on new contraceptive developments by the Population Council is not enough to develop neW methods, Dr. Scherra claimed. If the needed funds were provided, “ideal methods could probably be developed in 10 to 15 years,” he said. Dr. Scherra concluded: “If society wants ideal methods of contraception, the manpower and knowledge are there. But society specifically, the government has to put the financial resources in to get the job done.” — - JOHN PRINE UUAB PRESENTS and special guest stars Happy and Artie Traum Saturday March 9 at 8:30 pan , 1 07-I1S4 every naa's book store Emattoni Mu .

Working with Community Action Corps (CAC), these women hope to get help from Erie Medical, Planned Parenthood, and the Buffalo Women Center. The self-help clinic is an idea founded on preventive medical care. The self-help clinic offers women the opportunity to learn what is normal and what is not for their own particular bodies, how the abnormalities should be treated, and where they can receive the appropriate treatment. Self-help is nott an alternative to professional medical care, but an educational measure that can emancipate women from a dependency on the medical profession and its high cost by teaching her to recognize the medical questions: legally, how far can the unlicensed paramedic or social worker go without impinging on licensed territory? Medically, many problems arise with menstrual extractions. The researchers from F.W.H.C. are concerning themselves with how an extraction may affect hormonal balance, and the chances that a woman may puncture her uterus. There have been cases where extractions were performed with a syringe and failed to terminate the pregnancy. These are only a few of the questions that must be resolved before setting up a self-help clinic in Buffalo. The Women’s Free Health Clinic of Portland, Oregon counsels patients on birth control, pregnancy, and abortion, but refers them to organizations such as Planned Parenthood or other professional help, aiming for better medical treatment. These symptoms that require medical services are currently offered at attention. this university. However, the University lacks the adequate preventive facilities.

Number one job: impeachment forced on us.” by Michael O’Neill In an ironic twist of events, Mr. Clark is now calling National Editor for the removal of the President as a prerequisite to the Former Attorney General Ramsey Clark, speaking at a fund-raising party for the Niagara Frontier Civil Liberties Union, repeated his call for thejemoval of President Nixon and strongly warned of the dangers posed to the nation by the “Law-and-Order Philosophy” espoused by the Nixon administration. Long renowned for his outspoken support of the expression and preservation of individual freedoms, Mr. depicted the present scandals in Washington as “an Qark outgrowth of our moral code.” ‘The People of this country allowed the present administration to usurp power and abuse it,” he said. ‘They wanted a strong government but never considered the ill effects of such a move. It didn’t sneak up on us, we brought it about.” “Impeachment should be a number one priority,” Mr. Clark said. ‘The country must now make an effort to rid itself of the excesses of the Nixon Administration.” Denied flatly As a former Attorney-General serving under President Lyndon Johnson, Mr. Clark was asked to comment on the charges made by Mr. Nixon and his Republican supporters that the campaign violations of 1972 were not the first such excesses to occur.' Mr. Nixon has stated many times that Democrats committed similar transgressions during the three previous elections. Mr. Clark’s response was a flat denial: “No violations of this magnitude occurred during the Democratic campaign in 1968.” He added: “Mr. Nixon keeps referring to past violations, but never produces any specific evidence, never names any particular instances. If he has the evidence, then why didn’t he bring it to the Justice Department and have the violators prosecuted? Either he is not telling the truth, or he is guilty of withholding evidence,” Mr. Clark charged. A young man in the audience recollected the comments made by Richard Nixon during the 1968 campaign: “If I am elected, one of the first men to be removed will be Ramsey Clark. Law and order cannot be restored to this country with a man like him in the Justice Department.” Looking back, Mr. Clark said: “Law and otrder was a code word for repression; ahd what’s 'worse, knew it. We allowed autocratic government to be w- - restoration of justice in this country. Mr. Clark was in town for a preliminary hearing on Monday to set the dates for trials of Attica inmates indicted for their role in the 1971 prison uprising. Much of his time will be spent in the Buffalo area during the upcoming months, where he will serve as a member of the defense council. His announced intention to seek the 1974 Democratic nomination for Senator from New York and run against Jacob Javits in November will eventually become his primary concern. The strategy Mr. Clark outlined for his election drive has stirred considerable controversy. Campaign contributions will be restricted to $100 maximum, and it is expected that all contributions will average about $10. “If successful, this will revolutionize democratic principles and bring more people into the election process than ever before,” Mr. Clark said. “Democracy means more than one man, one vote. It means a guarantee that the interest of every person will be considered by their representative, not just those who contributed large sums of money and support to the campaign.” Consumate politician Mr. Clark conceded that challenging Jacob Javits, a 24-year Republican incumbent and well-known Senate liberal, will not be an easy chore. “Mr. Javits has the reputation of being a liberal, yet no one can ever be sure how he is going to vote on a specific issue. He does not take clear stands. Mr. Javits is a consummate politician, rather than an effective representative.” Mr. Clark was quick to make distinction between his approach to the campaign and that of Mr. Javits. “It will not be a choice between two vague liberals. I do offer an alternative.” Mr. Clark’s address to the Civil Liberties Union concluded with a brief talk on the place of liberty in a free society. Warning against the danger of repression from governmental authority, he. called for more active public participation in the process of government, claiming that the people can accomplish anything if they work hard enough at it. “Public opinion may be our last hope, it saved the lives of eight unknown Jews condemned to die in Ramsey Clark Leningrad, it affected the numerous recent political trials in this country, and it brought about the investigation into the Watergate scandals,” Mr. Clark concluded. “Without the freedom to express dissent, we would be at the mercy of autocracy and repression.” - Announcing the OPENING OF THE POSITION AVAILABLE VAJRAYANA Sub Board / is boking for a director to be Restaurant serving involved with the Amherst Campus.

Page five �Outside' poking In Imagination, leadership and a real sensitivity to student concerns will enable Frank Jackalone to effectively lead student government. A theme has emerged in Mr. Jackalone's campaign for SA President: involving the "average" student in student government. To accomplish this he will increase public information, hold "open" SA meetings, appoint non-SA students to Sub-Board, and restructure the farcical Student Assembly to make it representative. Instead of an Assembly of students who get 40 signatures on a petition and "represent themselves," Mr. Jackalone would strengthen Assembly committees so they could produce we 11-researched legislation. These committees (Student Rights, Academic Affairs, etc.) would be open to all students, and hopefully "chip away" at the apathy on campus by recruiting students with a specific area of interest. Equally important, Mr. Jackalone will aggressively deal with the Administration "as a student, not as a fellow administrator." Extremely knowledgable on academics, Mr. to Jackalone will persuasively represent student concerns faculty to save the fighting in Administration and progressive Colleges and the 4-course load, widening use of a Pass/No Credit grading option, and increasing student input into academic decisions. SA should take strong stands on issues, Mr. Jackalone believes, and use the press, rallies and boycotts if necessary to make the student voice heard. He is a straightforward, honest individual who has displayed leadership in the SA executive committee and Assembly all year. From Amherst Campus activities to intramural sports, his budget priorities are sound. Besides pledging $25,000 to WNYPIRG, he would have altered budgets to fund WNYPIRG after last fall's referendum because "it's the students' money, they should decide how it's spent." That summarizes the man's philosophy: a strong and representative SA, responsive to the needs of students. By contrast. Bob Burrick has also pledged $25,000 to WNYPIRG but was totally unfamiliar with its funding problems this year. This is typical of Mr. Burrick's candidacy: he has good ideas and means well, but has a shallow grasp of important issues which would render him an ineffective President. He has only vague ideas of how he would support the Colleges and 4-course load, and no real conception of dealing with the Faculty-Senate and Administration. Like Jon Dandes, Mr. Burrick is satisfied with SA's "good relationship" with President Ketter; under him, the student voice would become a whisper. Mr. Burrick has displayed no leadership abilities all year and is frequently indecisive. His plan for the Student Assembly, although sound, falls short of Mr. Jackalone's restructuring and threatens to perpetuate an impotent Assembly. Mr. Burrick is running on a platform of flashy proposals which are mostly cosmetic and lack substance. He has compromised himself by discussing post-election jobs and bargaining for political support. In short, although he has become quite well known as an effective Speakers Bureau chairman, Mr. Burrick's lack of knowledge and leadership would make him a well-meaning but mediocre President. Mr. Jackalone, however, has the knowledge and imagination to turn student government around, to open it up to more students. He is superbly qualified to be an activist and effective SA President. The choice is clear. A forceful personality and new reforms for the Student Assembly will make Scott Salimando an effective Vice-President. Rich Hochman 's imaginative approach will make him an excellent Sub-Board Vice-President. Although far from an ideal candidate, Mike Phillips' working knowledge of SA's financial intricacies makes him the best-qualified candidate for Treasurer. Mark Humm and Pam Benson are both knowledgable and qualified for Academic Affairs, but we believe Mr; Humm's persuasiveness would enable him to be more effective. Legal Aid Clinic veteran Hilary Lowell deserves election as Student Rights coordinator. WNYPIRG alumnus Michele Smith has exciting ideas to expand the scope of National Affairs into community and education issues. North Campus coordinator Howie Schapiro is well-suited for Student Affairs ; Sylvia Goldschmidt will bring an extensive knowledge of the clubs to Student Activities. Elhanan Keinan's vibrant personality would be invaluable at International Affairs, although Yusuf Baxamusa is also competent. — — Page six The Spectrum Wednesday, 27 February 1974 . . Washington. by Clan Coined continuedfrom last week. Bond turned and walked to where the man in the powdered wig sat picking a splinter from his hoagie with cheese. He was a tall, erect man, still at least 6’2” even at his obviously advanced age. A closer look revealed that he was not wearing a wig at all; flecks of brown were scattered through his natural white hair. He had a prominent nose, high forehead, deep-set blue eyes, pointed chin, a mole under an ear, a strong jaw and severely pock-marked, hollow cheeks. Bond took an American dollar bill from his pocket and noted the resemblance. “Are you George Washington, first President of the United States, Father of your country, first in war, first in peace and first in the hearts of your countrymen?” Bond demanded. “I cannot tell a lie; yes, I am,” replied Washington. “Why don’t you sit down?” “Thank you,” Bond said, drawing up a chair. “Now suppose you tell me who you are and what this is all about,” Washington said. Bond replied almost automatically: “My name’s Bond, James Bond.” “Really?" asked Washington, his blue eyes lighting up. “I’ve seen all your movies. May I please have your autograph?” Bond ignored the absurdity of an autograph request from a figure who had been nearly defied by history and scrawled his name on a sheet of note paper: “To George with best wishes, James Bond, 007.” Looking embarrassed, Washington took his reading glasses from his vest pocket, read the note, broke into a close-lipped smile and quickly put the note and the. glasses back into his vest .,. pocket. “Mr. President,” Bond said “George.” “George, I’ve been requested by your government to find you and persuade you to undertake a mission vital to your nation’s security,” Bond said. “The Presidency, the very institution that you originally and ably filled, is in trouble.” “Oh come now, Mr. Bond,” Washington replied “James.’ “James, it’s not the Presidency that’s in trouble. It’s the President,” Washington said “But there’s a crisis of confidence, George. Nobody believes Nixon anymore,” Bond said. “Does anyone believe Edward Heath?” Washington asked. “That’s beside the point,” said Bond with obvious irritation. “Your country needs you. The President wants you to lead his revived Operation Candor.” “First,” said Washington with deliberation, “it is not the country that needs me, it is Nixon. It’s just that confusion between Nixon and America that is responsible for his problems. Besides, I’m out of politics now. Second, why does he want me?” “Because you’re the only person the American people Avould trust enough,” Bond answered. “What about Walter Cronkite?” asked “He didn’t want the job,” Bond replied. Just then, the door to the Rat opened and a bruised, battered and bloody Ron Zeigler walked in. Washington turned, saw him, turned back to Bond and asked: “The redhead?” Bond nodded and smiled. Zeigler came to the table. “Ron," said Bond, “I’d like you to meet the Father of your country.” Gee, Mr. Washington, sir, “Uh-er-ah-wcll it’s an honor and a privilege, a special historic occasion when one can meet here, in this very room, the first President of the Ouch!” Bond’s well-aimed kick proved effective. “The pleasure is mine sir,” said Washington gallantly. Bond saw something flash in Washington’s eyes as he went on. “How did you get hurt, Mr. Zeigler?” “Well-uh-ahem I’m not at liberty to say at this time, however.” “The redhead,” Washington said with a sly grin and a friendly elbow to the ribs that knocked most of the wind out of Zeigler. “Yes, Mr. President,” said Ron, turning redder by the second. Washington put on his best avuncular manner, stretched a long arm around Ron’s shoulders, chuckled and said; “If you want to get The rest he any around here, go to. . whispered into Ron’s ear. “Are you sure, Mr. President?” Ron asked. “Would I lie?” Washington answered with a - - — wink “Thanks, Mr. President,” Ron gushed as he hobbled out the door. Washington waited until he had gone and laughed until tears ran down his cheeks. “What is it, George?” Bond asked. Gasping for breath, Washington answered: “1 just sent him to the karate instructor who turned that redhead on to women’s liberation.” Bond laughed hysterically. When he caught his breath, he said: “George, I’m not going to press you any more. You have too much class for that crowd in Washington. I’ll tell my superiors I . i . .» couldn’t find you.” “Good,” said Washington, “Why. doulf we go, to my room and get stoned?” “What?” asked the startled Bond “Surely you know about getting stoned.

Drugs, Sexual attitudes, war, the whole bit. You’ve probably noticed that you’re out of date as a hero,” Washington said. “Yes, I have,” Bond answered. “It’s about time I came to understand the times better.” They walked in silence for a few minutes, “James,” Washington said. “Yes, George?” “When do we get laid?” Bond dropped his knit tie and Walther PPK pistol into a trash can and thought to himself: “Some things never change.” The Spectrum Vol. 24, No. 59 Wednesday, 27 February 1974 Editor-In-Chief Howie Kurtz — Managing Editor Jams Cromer Business Manager Dave Simon Advertising Manager Gerry McKeen Production Supervisor - Joel Altsman - - - Arts Asst.

Scapegoating Preferential To the Editor. Barry Kaplan’s article on BSU President, Larry was totally uninformed, thoroughly misleading and racist in the extreme. In the first place, it was members and friends of Progressive Labor Party who initiated the action in the S.A. to reimburse Mr. Williams for his defense not the BSU as Kaplan states. PLP did this costs because WHAT HAPPENED TO LARRY Williams, - WILLIAMS WILL HAPPEN bear the cost of this harassment. The motion is to get the S.A. to organize whatever action is necessary, like a student strike, to get Ketter and his gang to cough up what it cost Larry to get off the hook. We have got to put Ketter and his cops on the defensive with an action like this. Otherwise the administration has a free hand to harass us ALL, and it has already declared open season on blacks and activists. The article mentions cutbacks in various student services at U/B, and in good old racist fashion suggests that we should jump on the backs of black students as the cause of ail our troubles. Kaplan would have us believe that it is blacks and not Ketter who is responsible for our financial plight. The LAST way we are going to win back the monies that Ketter & Co. have trimmed away is by scapegoating Larry Williams or the BSU. - TO MORE AND MORE STUDENTS, BLACK AND WHITE, as we organize to fight the cutbacks being handed down by Ketter Co. Larry’s case is by no means special: it is typical of the way the administration has consistantly framed students who get in its way here op campus. And no student can afford thousand dollar defense fees:'" In the second place, the whole point of the motion is to make the administration not students & - PROGRESSIVE LABOR PARTY Irresponsible journalism To the Editor. I was totally amazed at the ignorance displayed by Barry Kaplan in his column in Wednesday’s (2/22) The Spectrum. Mr. Kaplan’s looking glass must have been clouded with his own fingerprints when hw said the Assembly failed to decide on allocating &1000 to pay Larry Williams’ Court fees. If Mr. Kaplan had even attempted to research his story, he would have found that the Assembly has never even considered such an allocation. BSU representatives have approached the Assembly with such a proposal on two separate occasions. In each instance, I referred the proposal to the Finance Committee without discussion. The proposal has yet to be presented to the Finance Committee by these representatives. Therefore it will not even be presented to the Assembly on the 26th, barring a miracle. I did ask that the possibility that an allocation of this nature would be in violation of the mandatory fee guidelines be researched. That aspect of the proposal is still being researched, and a ruling will be forthcoming on the 26th. Yet discussion of the proposal by the Assembly has to this day been nonexistant. In the future I hope your writers like Mr. Kaplan will be more careful about researching the statemtnts they make in their “commentaries”. Irresponsible journalism is often easy and a lot of fun. Reporting the truth isn’t, it’s only fair. treatment To the Editor. Mr. Barry Kaplan is to be heartily congratulated for having the guts to criticize the BSU and the Student Assembly for even considering payment of Mr. Williams’ legal fees by the SA. He will be labeled a racist for his article, and so will I for my praise of it. The SA in general and the Dandes administration in particular has been giving the BSU treatment that can only be described as preferential all year. Messrs. Dandes and Unker approved a BSU expenditure of over $20,000 before the BSU budget was approved by the Student Assembly or even the Executive Committee. The funds were approved for the BSU’s homecoming weekend (Nov 16-19). The Executive Committee approved the expenditure on 3 Dec. (3 weeks later), but, not by the required 3/4 majority. The Student Assembly did not start to consider the BSU budget until December 11, mearly a month after the expenditure. Messrs. Dandes and linker are currently being sued in the Student Judiciary on this matter. After all this, it would hardly be surprising if the $1000 for Mr. William’s defense is pushed through the Assembly, however discriminatory it is. These are things that a voting student must know about in his search for the honest politician in the coming elections. Steven Kolodny It Would Be ~We Don't Want Kalionin" Too (loni|diealed” David Saleh SA Executive Vice-president Vote! To the Editor 1 am concerned about this year Student Association elections, as 1 was last year. 1 believe that I am a member of a dying breed of people on this campus. Last year only 11% of the eligible undergraduates bothered to come out and vote in the election. This election’s campaign, just like last year’s, seems to have started out at full blast, but I am hesitant to say that the students’ apathy will probably increase to the same level as it did last year and in every other year’s election. This year’s election is a little different from last year, as noticed by the number of complaints that the Elections Credentials Committee has received on the first day of campaigning alone. At least when this campaign is over, no one person will have to go to any great effort to throw out all of the paper used for this campaign, and I think that this shows the people’s concern for & recycling all of the paper used, but unfortunately, they have not picked those garbage pails that are marked FOR PAPER ONLY, TO BE RECYCLED, but its the idea that counts. The other idea that also counts is the idea of each and every student who has ever complained about the student government to get out and do something about it, namely GET OUT AND VOTE. The results of an election only represent the opinion of those people who have taken the time (two minutes) to vite. So, do not complain next year about the Student Association unless you have gone out and voted and shown your concern for the way things are run here on campus, and the same thing goes for every election in your town, state and in this country.

The conference, composed of representatives from Student Governments and organizations throughout the nation, spent the weekend preparing the delegates for an all-out lobbying effort to be conducted mid-week. The primary concerns of the organization are those issues that specifically effect students. The continuance and expansion of federal educational assistance programs is one of their concerns. The group will also attempt to represent the interest of the country’s 10 million students on issues such as absentee voting restrictions which discriminate against youth who attend school away from home, in addition to more national topics such as unconditional amnesty for war resistors and the impeachment of President Nixon. The lobby hopes to have as many students as possible notify their representatives of how they feel on the issues directly involving them. - SPECIAL SURBEX-T Hi-Potency Vit.

Members of both the United Gasoline Retailers of Western New York and the Empire State Gasoline Dealers Association vocally denounced Gov. Malcolm Wilson’s directive restricting the sale of gasoline to odd or even days of the month according to the last digit of the consumer’s license plate. They termed the measure “unnecessary” in the Buffalo area, where, unlike elsewhere in the state, the effects of the gas shortage have not really been felt. “We have enough restrictions already,” said Harry Hobson of the Empire State Gasoline Dealers. “We will not honor the plan. It’s bad enough to face customers with today’s prices, and now we’ll have to say they can’t get gas because they have the wrong retailers are waiting to meet with representatives of Gov.

Foul trouble limited his effectiveness in the second half, and the Tigers slowly opened up a large lead. by Paige Miller Spectrum Staff Writer Bryant and Stratton is the nation’s number one ranked business school basketball team, with a 24-4 record. So when the Tigers played the junior varsity basketball Bulls Saturday afternoon at Clark Hall, the result, a 81-69 decision for the Tigers, came as no surprise. The Baby Bulls had earlier lost to Bryant and Stratton, 104-88 in a similar game. Buffalo now has dropped its last three contests and has a 4-13 record. BuU coach John Hill, in an effort to change his team’s losing ways, inserted Scott Kovel into the starting Jackson paces Tigers Bryant and Stratton was led by guard Joe Jackson, who seemed to be seeking revenge against the Baby Bulls. Jackson, “the quickest man on the court,” according to Hill, socred 28 points, following up a 36 point performance in the team’s first meeting. Both figures were well above his 22 point average. Jackson’s quickness was evident both offensively and defensively. He made a shambles of the Bulls full court press, as he quickly moved around anyone who tried to stop him. This led to many easy shots for Jackson, who shot 12-for-24. Defensively his 11 steals totaled six more than the entire Buffalo squad had. A major factor in the game was Bryant and Stratton’s ability to play together. ‘They’ve played so many more games than us,” said Hill after the team’s first meeting. ‘They have to play together better than we do.” This was evident in the final turnover statistics. Buffalo committed 28 turnovers, one less than in their first meeting, while the Tigers committed just 12 turnovers. Tomorrow night, the Baby Bulls conclude their home schedule against Niagara Community College. They journey to Rochester on Saturday, and finish their season at Buffalo State on Monday.

Facilities in.East Hartford, Connecticut and West Palm Beach, Florida �Sudden death CLASSIFIED WANTED The entire hockey schedule must be re-evaluated in the wake of the ECAC Playoff Tournament Committee’s weekend decision regarding this season’s playoffs. The hockey Bulls, who were thought to have an excellent chance to advance to the tournament, were not selected to the playoff field ‘The reason that we weren’t selected was that we didn’t play any of the contenders,” said Buffalo coach Ed Wright. “We didn’t play any of the contenders because they didn’t want to play us.” The problems that the Bulls have had in scheduling Division II opponents have been present since the day that varsity hockey began at Buffalo. The Division’s “powers” have shown a great reluctance to travel to Buffalo. Only New England College and American International have been regular visitors. The Bulls have even attempted to initiate a Christmas tournament involving Division II teams, but they have held their ground and refused to come. Hamilton, a squad which had formerly met the Bulls on an annual basis, received serious playoff consideration even though they refused to schedule Buffalo this season. “Greg Batt [Hamilton coach] told me we were too tough for them,” said Wright. Last year’s Bull squad, not nearly as good as the present one, had obliterated Hamilton, 11-3. Had Buffalo crushed the Continentals by a similar score this season, Hamilton’s playoff hopes would almost certainly have been dashed. “We need them, they don’t need us,” said Wright. “But, what can you do? Play on the road all the time?” Perhaps it would be necessary for the Bulls to spend half their season playing teams in New England in order to qualify for the tournament. An alternate campus in Maine could be set up so the Bulls could attend classes. An argument against playing too many road games can be brought the basis of Oswego’s recent New England trip. The Lakers had a 2-1 on lead over St. Anselm’s after one period in what was their third game in as many nights. St. Anselm’s coach Frank Harrington told Oswego coach Herb Hammond to “cool it” (the Lakers play a hard-hitting game) or he would see that none of the eastern teams would schedule Oswego. The Lakers “cooled it” and lost, 11-3. Obviously, the Buffalo schedule is not considered sufficiently strong by the playoff committee. Playing Brockport, R.I.T., Ithaca and Lake Forest will not help playoff chances at all, whether they be in Division II, III or IV. Realistically, Buffalo must defeat several New England playoff contenders on the road each season in order to be admitted to the playoff “circle.” The playoff seedings: 1, Vermont; 2, Merrimack;3,Salem Stat*;4, Williams; 7, Norwich; 8, Army. Boston State; 5, Epee victory H * Staff Writer Buffalo’s fencing team rebounded from a loss to Penn State on February 6th as they trounced Rouchester Tech 21-6 Saturday afternoon. It was the eighth win of the year against two losses for the Bulls. Buffalo also defeated Eisenhower College, 12-4 in an exhibition match. Despite the high score, no one on the team was particularly excited with his performance. The Bulls hold a 44-6 edge in this 39-year-old rivalry between RIT and this University, including 17-10 and 20-7 triumphs last year. The Bulls have a hard time getting psyched up against the Tigers. In fact, most of the squad expected a wider margin of victory. Buffalo got off to a slow start when the Tigers scored three victories in the first six bouts. Three epee victories in a row got the Bulls on the right track for the rest of the match. Buffalo was paced by epee fencers Marty Schiff and Tom Gately, who each won two bouts and lost none. The epee team swept nine bouts. Co-captain Howie Forman summed up the Bulls’ performance, “We beat them, but we fenced on their level. We - BIT as season nears Spectrum t end should have been fencing on our level.” Regional, NCAA championships As the Bulls’ season begins to wind down, attention is beginning to focus on the North Atlantic Regional Championships and the NCAA Championships. Forman (16 -4) and Munz (16-6) are Buffalo’s best hopes to improve on the Bulls’ fifth place finish in the regionals and 23rd place finish in the nationals last year, A little sooner, though, is a big five-way meet this Saturday at Clark Hall. R1T, Binghamton, Notre Dame and Wayne State will be on hand to close out Buffalo’s regular season, and a Bull sweep would turn a good season into a great one Last year, Buffalo topped Binghamton, but dropped the decision with Notre Dame. Wayne State is considered one of the top fencing schools in the country. “We’re going to have to have better practices than we have been having,” said Forman. He added-: “We have to be prepared physically and mentally. I know if I lose a few bouts early, I can really get down on myself and not win another match the entire day.” FOUND: 1.

No. 58 York rape law, which contains the corroboration requirement, means a rape victim’s testimony must be verified by another witness. But, according to ECCCAR; “Most rapes are not committed in broad daylight with many witnesses available.” Since “politics is a response to pressure,” Mr. McFarland explained, suggesting that each citizen write to Gov. Malcolm Wilson and urge him to sign the bill into law. Low conviction rate Currently, there are 35 states without the corroboration requirement, but New York will be the first to repeal it. “There is no justification for a law that treats a woman as less credible than a man,” said Mr. McFarland. The history of New York’s rape law was described by Joseph McCarthy, Erie County assistant District Attorney. The 1864 rape law required that the rapist’s identity, evidence of penetration, and the use of force all be proven by corroborated testimony. To prove penetration, the rapist’s semen must be found in the woman’s vagina. “Before 1972, New York had the strictest requirements in the countsy,” said Mr. McCarthy. The rape law was later amended to its present form, but it still retained the corroboration requirement. Under this law, of the 191 rapes reported in Erie County last year, only five rapists were convicted. The FBI estimates “only ten per cent of all rapes are reported to the police,” Mr. McCarthy said. Law enforcement representatives then discussed the police aspect of rape. “The ■ min or a judge must sign the consent form. One of the conferees suggested a judge should be available overnight to sign such forms so a victim admitted during the night will not have to wait until the morning to be examined. Victim credibility Ralph Dagenhart, Buffalo Police Chief of Detectives, urged starting a checklist for rape cases, but said the information should be programmed into the Central Police Services’ computer. He said this “would be very helpful in rape cases” because of the speed and accuracy with which police could obtain needed information about a suspect’s identity. Linda Cleveland, a 1973 graduate of the State University of Buffalo Law School, said juries decide rape cases according to the question; “Who is more credible the victim or the defendant?” She predicted the male-female credibility battle in rape cases will be greater once the corroboration requirement is repealed. “Lawyers don’t try to get a fair and impartial jury, but one that is prejudiced in favor of their clients,” Ms. Cleveland said. Reporting on a study of Erie County juries by the Buffalo American Civil Liberties Union, Ms. Cleveland said most jurors are white men between the ages of 40 and 50. Ms. Cleveland said although anyone over 21 can be on a jury, there are few young people. She urged people to write to New York State Assemblywoman Constance Cook, who is sponsoring a bill to abolish what Ms. Cleveland called “the statutory exemption for women.” - SA Elections: page 3 News story pages 8-9 Endorsements Candidates statements pages 11-17 Monday, 25 February 1974 8UPIAN3KV During rape trials, the victim is usually the prime witness, and it was suggested at the conference she should have a lawyer during the trial. ‘The chastity of the victim is relevant on the issue of consent, but the chastity of the defendant is usually irrelevant and inadmissible as evidence,” said William Carnahan, a trial attorney. Judge Loughlin, chairperson of the new Eric County Task Force on Rape (ECTFR), said its goal was “a totally linked program of high quality, comprehensive care for rape victims.” Within three or four months, she said, the ECTFR will set up a crisis service and improve services at Meyer Memorial Hospital, where all rape victims must now be examined to prosecute their attackers. of its people sent to help her ‘The Crisis Services maintains a 24-hour response to all persons in Erie County who are facing crisis situations, including victims of assault and offenders,” said coordinator Tim Williams. Their phone number is 854-1966. Mr. Williams said Crisis Services responds to calls in three ways; information concerning other services and procedures is offered; the callers are counseled with respect to their specific needs; and Crisis Services acts as a referral service to other health and mental health facilities. Crisis Services also includes a Crisis Outreach Program. Mr. Williams explained that male/female teams are available to go into the community. However, “We’re not out to provide anything for anyone that they can do themselves,” he said. Mr. Williams also described the Crisis Clinic, which provides short-term personal counseling, ‘The right kind of help when it’s most needed can avoid long-term psychological problems,” he said. Community cooperation The ECTFR solicits “all the recommendations we can get from the community, especially from women who have been raped,” said Ms. Loughlin. It is located in the Rath Building, Room 1237, 95 Franklin, Buffalo 14202. The next public meeting of the ECTFR is next Wednesday, February 27, at 2 p.m. in the Barbara Zartman of the Rochester Rape Rath Building. Crisis Service (RRCS), which is a part of Andrea Morgante, moderator of the the Rochester Planned Parenthood and Medical Services Workshop, announced uses its 24-hour phone service, said her organization tries to “separate politics and that the Emergency Psychological Admission To the Hospital (EMPATH) and services.’ The Rochester group consists of Meyer Hospital’s Emergency Room, as a result of the day’s conference, had agreed male/female teams of volunteers on duty for a week at a time.

He suggested we “get the rapist off the street so the women can walk them.” Dr. Kennedy said the two usual methods of preventing rape are better legal procedures and restricting women’s activity. She suggested improving street lighting, making women stronger, and changing social conditions. Emphasizing the last point. Dr. Kennedy said we must change the current sex roles. She also believes the economy should be modified so all people can work if they want. The power relationship the cooperation of the local hospitals and police. Five hospitals in Rochester will treat rape victims without involving the police and Blue Cross/Blue Shield pays their hospital expenses, Ms. Zartman said. “RRCS volunteers can help a woman put the attack in perspective; they can tell the woman what help is available; they can stay with her while she gets medical help; during police interviews (except during a lie detector test), and if she has to appear in court,” Ms. Zartman explained.

He cited this Gugino, SUNY University’s “manpower, technology and facilities” as possible resources that could be harnessed by the new think tank. Formally announced in October 1973, the Institute for Alternatives is a “joint idea” of Ernest L. Boyer, SUNY Chancellor and former New York Governor Nelson Rockefeller. Some observers have criticized the Institute as being part of a political vehicle for Mr. Rockefeller’s unannounced campaign for President in 1976. However, Dr. Boyer said there was only a “tenuous link” between the Institute and Mr. Rockefeller’s Critical Choices for America Policy Commission. The Institute — has' three goals: to conduct basic and applied research to provide a forum for alternative choices of action to serve as a training center for people from public and private campuses, business and labor. These people will attend — — short-term seminars. An advisory board composed of people from various sectors of society will determine the priorities to be probed by the Institute and will enter “contractual agreements” with public bodies. The board will oversee interaction “with other agencies evfcn in other states and maybe even Critical Choices for America,” Mr. Gugino said.

Mr. Jackalone, who feels students are more concerned with their personal lives than student government, would actively seek student input into academic issues and other SA business by conducting a more “open” SA. Through hi* involvement on the Executive, Academic Affairs, Student Activities, and Future of Athletics Committees, Mr. developed Jackalone has of SA first-hand knowledge operations. His platform emphasizes taking firm stands on major academic issues; a complete revamping to make the Student Assembly more representative; the firm establishment of recreational and intramural programs on both campuses; and the creation of an efficient system of public information “to let students know what’s going on.” The Reichert Prospectus for the Colleges emphasizes “legitimacy at the expense of creativity and innovation,” Mr. Jackalone believes. level. Referring to the ACT course evaluations, Mr. Jackalone does they are presently not effective and would like to see them become a “working reality.” He wants to tap their potential for use in tenure decisions by them within one publishing semester after distribution. Revamping Assembly Mr. Jackalone attacked this year’s Student Assembly as “ineffective,” noting that the members were “ill-informed” and group ‘‘served interest representation.” In outlining his ideas to reorganize the Assembly, Mr. Jackalone drew up a detailed diagram of its proposed new structure. Committees chaired by the various SA Coordinators consider would carefully legislation before presenting it to floor, thus the Assembly providing increased legitimacy and well thought-out proposals. These committees would be opened up to the general student body by advertising in departments and classes for students interested in specific areas. The Assembly would thus be turned into a student “Senate” with a fixed number of representatives from various areas Academic Affairs, National Affairs, clubs, etc. each under a coordinator, and intriunurals. He pledged $25,000 for WNYPIRG so the consumer group can join its statewide parent group, NYPIRG. He said SA would “go out of its way” to solve minority group funding for problems “in return Executive Committee would serve as non-voting members. The success of the Student Assembly, Mr. Jackalone said, is contingent upon effective publicity. Mr. Jackalone proposed the bi-weekly publication of an SA explanation booklet and the creation of an open public information office, “ready to answer all questions.” He also plans to personally hold regular open forums in Haas Lounge to increase communication between SA and the general student body. ‘It’s students’ money’ To achieve better working relations with members of the Faculty-Senate, Mr. Jackalone will greater student bargain for representation on Faculty-Senate committees in exchange for faculty participation on student committees.

Ian DeWaal 1971-72 Bernard Gelbaum’s proposal for a return to the five-course load. “Learning can take place outside the classroom,” he insisted. Mr. Jackalone also felt the present grading system should contain a greater option for Pass/No Credit. “Emphasis must be taken away from grades by relying more on written evaluations in upper-level courses of a student’s major,” he said. To provide for a stronger student voice in tenure decisions, Mr. Jackalone would push for two voting student members on the Presidential Tenure Review Board. Additionally, he would campaign for more student input on tenure committees at the departmental When conflicts arise between the Administration or faculty and the students, student interest should be organized through the press, rallies, letters, and direct personal pressure from SA officials, Mr. Jackalone stressed. Mr. Jackalone favors more on student representatives Sub-Board 1 than SA Executive Committee members. However, he felt the SA President should be to Sub-Board to appointed facilitate communication between the other SA presidents (Graduate Student Association, Millard Fillmore College, etc.). He also recommended a move towards income-offset for such Sub-Board divisions as Health Care and Housing. Mr. Jackalone’s budget priorities include increased funding for more activities on the Amherst Campus, women’s athletic programs, and Activities for Amherst Sub-Board I must move towards income-offset to provide insurance in case the mandatory student fee is eliminated, maintained Mr. Burrick.

The Mr. Burrick said he pledged increased support for WNYPIRG to enable the consumer group to join the statewide NYPIRG. He also supports increased funding for intramural programs, and expansion of women’s varsity and intramural play. expenses. � - Education isn’t credit hours The Faculty-Senate was erroneous in trying to dominate them with faculty, Mr. Jackalone feels. “The purpose of the Chartering Committee is to provide direction and only the College members can do that,” he explained. He added that SA should take a firm stance on the support the Colleges and of two appointment undergraduate College members to the Chartering Committee, thus helping to insure the continuation of the progressive Colleges. Asserting that “Education is not synonymous with creditr hours,” Mr. Jackalone denounced Academic Affairs vice president Assembly.” Mr. Kofler, a transfer student, said that he wasn’t going to follow the traditional route of student politicians by working his way up through the ranks until he was old enough and smart enough. ‘This school needs a change,” Mr. Koffler emphasized, noting that one of his top priorities would be to get students involved in running their government and making their voice heard within the University community. He explained that he would take “overt actions” such as rallies to confront the Administration on various issues. * * * * • * * Increased involvement for students at the departmental level of academic decision-making, of strengthening the University-wide Assembly, additional funding for intramurals and a new beginning for the Amherst campus arc the focus of Bob Burrick’s candidacy for Student Association President.

Mr. Burrick also said he favored the current “four-course responsiveness load” and that he personally thought an “A-B-C-No Credit” system should be grading instituted.

This part takes the potential applicant step-by-step through the -admissions process. by Jeff Deasy or being put on a waiting list when one should have been accepted, he said. Send explanation Another graduate suggests you send a cover letter with each application explaining what you have been doing for the last four years or perhaps explaining grade fluctuations. Also send each school a transcript of the first semester senior year making sure your grades have been accurately recorded. Many law schools weigh the L.S.A.T. score more heavily than grade point averages, said Dr. Fink who advises students to take the L.S.A.T. either in July between their junior and senior years and no later than October of their senior year. If the L.S.A.T. is taken any later students may not be able to get their applications in time for January and February deadlines. Dr. Fink reminds students that the earlier they apply the better their chances of any drastic Spectrum Staff Writer When you begin plans to apply to law school, the question of what kind of undergraduate background you should have may arise. Exactly what courses you should be taking is hard to determine. As one law student at U.C.LA. explained: “Undergraduate work bears little relationship to law school.” However, Jerome Fink, Pre-Law advisor at this Uiyvcrsity, suggests a broad liberal arts program which offers plenty of writing experience, particularly analytical writing. When you have decided on your program of undergraduate study, Dr. Fink suggests the following preliminary actions. During the summer between your junior and senior year begin writing the schools which interest you. Request a catalog, an application and financial aid information. You should correspond not only with the nationally prestigous schools but also with those schools where your chances of acceptance are relatively good. Next, law schools require recommendations. All prospective applicants should set up a reference file at University Placement and Career Guidance in Hayes C, Room 3, as soon as possible. Your file should, include people who can judge your acadmeic ability and if possible a long term employer. Schools may also require a letter of reference from your pre-law advisor. Have at least three strong references. Filing of law school applications and the sending of references should be done as early as possible in your senior year. According to one Buffalo graduate now in law school, “Just one word of advice the earlier one applies, the better off one is.” Late applications can result in rejection when one could have been on a waiting list most — being accepted. Can’t cram The L.S.A.T. is not an exam for which you can study, but it is probably helpful to buy a book which gives samples of past examinations, advises Dr. Fink. In a survey of University graduates now in law school conducted by Dr. Fink, several law students indicated that Simon and Schuster is the best prep for the law boards while the Cowl£k prep book is generally considered useless. It’s the individual student’s responsibility to tell the Law School Data Assembly Service (a special program established by Educational Testing, which summarizes grade point averages and L.S.A.T. scores) to which schools they want their test scores sent. Students must also arrange to have a copy of their transcript sent by the Office of Admissions and Records (in Hayes Annex B) to the LSDAS. The Law School Data Assembly Service will also forward students’ senior year, first semester grades to law schools at no extra charge. It is important that new information, such as first semester grades, be sent to update applications. An Admissions Committee may be unable to reach a decision on an application and new information may help them reach a positive decision. When you begin to think about selecting particular law schools, you should know that it is easiest to find a job in the same geographical areas as the law school attended, Dr. Fink said. Several former University students suggested visiting the schools you want to 'attend, sit jn on lectures, check library facilities. Whert visiting schools talk to the students there and try and talk to members of the faculty, they recommended. One Buffalo graduate found when he was applying that “almost all out-of-state schools cater almost entirely to their own state’s students.” However if one has the credentials, he should apply to out-of-state schools, because, as Dr. /Fink explains: “many regional schools, particularly those in the south and middle West, are trying to establish a national reputation.” In general, apply to a wide spectrum of schools, even if they’re not first choice, recommends Dr. Fink. When you begin the application process start a file which will include all law school transactions. Try to bring out, in those applications that require an autobiographical statement, things you have done, such as active participation in organizations such as the A.C.L.U. or a volunteer Legal Aid job. Do not withhold any information such as arrests or other personal matters which are asked about on the application, because once you finish law school you will be investigated, and withheld information may prove detrimental, personally according to Dr. Fink. Finally, one Buffalo law student explains that if you are applying to law school; “Don’t ever give up even if rejected at first. Keep on calling. Request personal interviews, show them you are serious. ‘Sell yourself’ if necessary. Reapply next year.” If you have any further questions contact Dr. Jerome Fink, at 4230 Ridge Lea, Room C*1, or call 831-1672. Starship Enterprise In the land ofKirk: tribbles, trash and Trekkies Ever since Star Trek was taken off the air, its number of viewers has increased tremendously. Rerun after rerun has thrilled audiences to the point of such fanatical cultism as to create the third annual Star Trek Convention (held February 15-18 at the Americana Hotel in New York City), where they can joyfully watch rerun after rerun of their favorite show. This year, 12,000 people waited with characteristic Vulcan patience for some seven hours in the registration lines. Upon entering the main ballroom, fans were treated to a variety of speeches and panel discussions involviing Star Trek’s Deforest Kelley (Dr. McCoy), George Takei (Sulu), Walter Koenig (Cheicov), and Michelle Nichols (Lt. Uhura), who reminisced about strange happenings on the set while filming. Leonard Nimoy (Spock) gave a 20-minute version of the same speech he delivered on this campus in November. There were also writers from the show, such as Dorothy C. Fontana (associate producer) and David Gerrold (Trouble with Tribbles), as well as the make-up artist, Fred Phillips, whose talent worked wonders on Nimoy’s ears. Trekkie treats Entering Hucksters Room was comparable to standing in the registration lines, only the lines did not exist. It was simply a room of mass confusion with greedy people picking up autographed copies of Michelle Nichols’ record, Star Trek banner, Star Trek letter paper, Star Trek point. This noted scientist, science fiction writer, and artist offered a realistic voyage of the Enterprise, but was rewarded with many yawns of general apathy. A different medium through which Trekkies could express themselves on their favorite topic was the costume show. Romulan commanders, pre-reformation (barbarian) Vulcan females, and crawling fur coats (recognized by many as tribbles) covered the stage. The greatest response was induced by a Klingon who attacked David Gerrold with such statements as “overbearing, tin-plated tribble lover with delusions of grandeur.” Six security officers, who had been forewarned, had to hold back Gerrold as the Klingon pranced about the stage to the great delight of the fans who dearly love shouting down their enemy. David Gerrold is very important to the Trekkic scene because he created Tribbles, those little furry creatures which are bom pregnant. The response to Gerrold varied from praising his creativity to sardonic witticisms such as “Arc you Harlan Ellison on stilts?” to out-and-out insults. Despite its repeated syndication (and David Gerrold’s unauthorized auctions of tribbles and scripts), Star Trek has not yet made a profit. A portion of the funds obtained this year will go to cancer research in Romantic naivete Despite this, Trekkies seem to be terribly naive, memory of the late Gene L. Coon, former executive preferring to be entertained by the romantic adventures of producer. Thus, the Star Trek “Cons” do have some Captain Kirk instead of studying the scientific and redeeming value to our philosophical bases of the Enterprises’s five-year mission. Hal Clement's slide show can be used to exemplify this Stanley Harper ash trays, paperweights, and coasters, and, of course, Trekkie buttons which held such famous lines as “Keep on Trekking,” “I have a one Trek mind,” and “Nixon is a Klingon in disguise”. The imagination of Star Trek people appears not only on buttons, but also on canvas. In the art show, beside the full-size stuffed Spock, was a series of commemorative nativity scenes featruing a baby Spock dressed in swaddling clothes lying in a shuttlccraft. In place of the sheep of the valley were hortas and tribbles, and the smiling faces of Captain James T. Kirk, Scotty, and Dr. McCoy represented the three wise men. These pictures, more than anything, symbolize the religious aura exuded by Star Trek upon the eager young wishing to find a new world. The trekkie is a unique creation. At the most intense level, he is a worshipping idealist who can see no other point of view than the 60-minute show presented. In totality, however, Trekkies are symbols of the universe getting to know itself by relating to intelligent life in general, rather than simply humans of earth. This is a response to the concept of “world nation.” fage four ;The Spectrum Monday- 25- February 1974 / socie^.^g �Questions unsettled concerning the death penalty Staff Writer Although New York State’s death penalty has been declared unconstitutional, those who believe it provides an effective deterrent to crime are fighting for its revival. The State Court of Appeals repealed the Capita] Punishment law in June 1973, following a 1972 Supreme Court ruling declaring such laws unconstitutional. “Capital punishment as practiced generally in the United States was so varied and arbitrary it violated the Eighth Amendment’s ban on cruel and unusual punishment,” the Supreme Court ruled. Laws of several states, including that of New York, were declared unconstitutional because they could be applied in a discriminatory manner. The Supreme Court found that enforcement of capital punishment laws was not being applied evenly, especially in the South, where the death penalty was meted out more readily to the blacks. The New York State Court of Appeals ruled that the law allowing execution for convicted murderers of policemen was unconstitutional because the death penalty for the crime was “optional,” leaving it to the discretion of the jury and judge. Proponents of capital punishment claim that if the state would change the wording in the law from “optional” to “mandatory,” the law would pass as constitutional. ‘It is constitutional for a state to pass laws including death penalties as long as there are strict standards in its application,” wrote Supreme Court Chief Justice Warren Burger. The repealed state penal code allowed for the death penalty in three specific cases: (1) piprdcr of a peace officer performing official duties; <2) murder of a prison guard while performing duties; and considered constitutional? “Any new bill will probably be based upon the old penal law, only without the discretionary clause,” explained a spokesman for Gov. Malcolm Wilson. When asked whether the Governor would favor reinstatement of such a bill, the spokesman insistently replied; ‘The Governor as of now has no statement and he will not make any statement. He is waiting till the bill is put before him.” „ n BOPlIWKtil (3) murder committed by a person serving a life sentence or escaping from such a sentence. The convicted person must be older than 18 at the time the crime was committed. Mandatory execution Last September, Rep. Mario Biaggi called for New York State to adopt a law providing mandatory death penalties for murder committed in the following categories; (1) murders of police or prison guards; (2) murders by hired assassins; and (3) murders of witnesses to serious crimes such as rape, murder, robbery and kidnapping. ‘Twenty other state have already adopted this law,” said Mr. Biaggi, terming the law an effective deterrent to Opposition to capital punishment Any proposals for reinstatement of the death penalty will apparently meet with considerable opposition. Capital punishment achieves no purpose, Herald Fahringcr, a- New York Civil Liberties Union lawyer, recently testified at the Erie County Legislature. ‘There is no reliable proof the penalty is a proper deterrent to crime,” Mr. Fahringer insisted. “According to statistics, within the past two years there has been a heavy increase in the homicide rate in states where the death penalty is now in effect,” Mr. Fahringer noted, “while the homicide rate has remained the same in states where the penalty was repealed. “The penalty, needless to say, does not allow for much rehabilitation. There is too much finality to the penalty. The state is now playing the role of the murderer,” he observed. Since the State Court of Appeals has rescinded the death penalty, there have been five men awaiting execution in Grcenhaven “K Gallery,” New York’s Death Row. Sen. James Buckley (C., N.Y.) commented on their predicament: “Reinstatement must be applied as soon as possible to eliminate such a waiting list, which is cruel and unusual in itself.” Assembly resceduled The University Assembly, originally scheduled meet on Thursday, February 28 in 111 Hochstetter, has been moved to the Moot Courtroom of JOhn Lord O’Brien Hall. to Math, Engineering & Science Majors The HEWLETT PACKARD CALCULATORS are at: BUFFALO TEXTBOOK • • 3610 Main St. Coming soon: The HP. 65 Programable pocket calculator.

His scope of madness is unparalleled, and he’s pretty funny too. His films The Still the best conceived piece of Critic, The Producers cranial debauchery ever created The Twelve Chairs, and his current yuk—yuk brainchild Black Bart, are all classics in the sense of Chaplin, Keaton and Roach.

To test it he leaned over to Mel Brooks and asked, “Is it true that you were on the scene of the Crucifixtion some 2000 years ago?” Mel’s reply, as the instantly conjured 2000 year old fella, was simple and direct: “Ooooooooboy!!” After this, everywhere the two appeared the Old Man had a few comments or a few historical insights heretofore unheard of.

When asked about how America should go about solving its financial difficulties he promptly answers, “sell America to Japan, we might as well make a profit after all they’re gonna get it in ten years anyway.” When queried about the future hopes of the world he seemed sceptical, but still had a solution. Is there any hope? “No. As long as the world is turning and spinning we’re gonna be dizzy, we’re gonna make mistakes. If some shmart guy can stop it so we’re not nauseous, then we’ll be able to think and we’ll solve the problems of the world.” So if you want a fleeting glimplse into life two thousand years ago, and you wanna find out about things like Paul Revere’s anti—semitism, Winston Churchills’ prolonging of the war because of poor elocution, or the War of Roses, pick up on the 2013 year old man.

The Spectrum: Then in terms of graduate school admissions, a student is nothing more than a batch of numbers cume, GRE score Dr. Ketter:'On the first go-through, that seems to be the case. Especially in cases like medical schools and law schools and dentistry. The Spectrum: Is this the direction education should move? Dr. Ketter: No, it shouldn’t The Spectrum: Do you see any viable solution? Dr. Kettcr: The reason I don’t sec any solution at the present moment is that we are hellbent to say that everyone in society should have as many degrees as possible. I don’t think society can sustain that. It tends to become the union card for anything from ditch-digging on - — Editor’s Note: To determine the State of the University, The Spectrum’s Editor-in-Chief Home Kurtz and Campus Editor Gary Cohn interviewed University President Robert Ketter in January. These excerpts from that interview deal with Dr. Ketter’s comments on the 4-course load, grading, the graduate school admissions crunch and credentials. The Spectrum: Some critics argue that the 4-course load weakens our claim for more faculty in Albany. Do the budget people say: your faculty are now teaching only two courses instead of three? Dr. Ketter: No, they don’t say that. They say, your faculty is teaching exactly the same number of courses, but they are meeting the courses for fewer hours per week. Your statement iin The Spectrum that you had contacted the Division of the Budget and they don’t get into those questions Look at the Executive Budget where they say specifically: Buffalo shall remove two nursing faculty members because their student/faculty ratio is too great in the School of Nursing. That’s getting to be very specific, the first time we have getting into a particular program Executive into a specific program Budget go ever had the rich in nursing ratio is too and say, your student/faculty therefore you will other nursing programs; compared to two eliminate positions in nursing. We must sell the people in Albany on the four-course idea so that we can go forward. If we can’t, then we are headed for absolute mediocrity. There is no question - — The Spectrum: Do you feel faculty members have put in enough effort? Dr. Kcttcr: There is a great variance throughout the University. Some are working their tails off, and that’s almost endemic to a University setting; it’s a place where you can kill yourself or you can get away with virtually nothing. And some arc on both sides. The Spectrum: Are you looking for a yardstick to measure faculty performance? Dr. Ketter: I wouldn’t want them to have to measure to a yardstick, but at least to have something they can up compare themselves against. And something we can use as an argument when we say, we need more resources. The Spectrum: Should that yardstick transcend number of contact hours? Dr. Ketter: That’s one possible way [contact hours] 1 don’t say that’s foolproof. While we criticize like the devil the idea that credit hours are not a measure, we have not supplied anything that’s any better. And our first attempt is to say, Let’s take contact hours because that’s a little better than credit hours. But I don’t think we’ve really hit something that’s sellable yet. The Spectrum: Can contact hours really be a measure of education? How many hours I sit and listen to a faculty member talk to me? Dr. Ketter: No. It convinces certain people that have to authorize money that it’s one step further in terms of the amount of effort that’s being expended, not by students and that’s the one thing you have to separate when the arguments come up, they’re not saying. What does the student get? but, What is the faculty member giving? It’s a different question entirely. - - The Spectrum: Would you favor greater flexibility in credit-granting? Science majors feel there s some inequity. Dr. Ketter: I would favor a greater flexibility, period. There is nothing sacred about the idea of everything having four. It just doesn’t make sense. Certain others things package themselves very nicely in two’s 12’sand 16’s We shouldn’t package themselves nicely in be so hung up that everything gets four and we have to package everything in fours. There should be some greater rationale that. Four is the unit. The Spectrum: Do you favor the one contact hour for one credit hour formula that Dr. Gelbaum is proposing? Dr. Ketter; What he was proposing is, here is one that would probably be a little more step along the line would openly welcome somebody bit easier to defend. I and 1 tell the Faculty-Senate executive coming forward that for committee that every time I meet with them defensible is a more God’s sake, give me something that posture. Tell me anything The Spectrum: You’re looking for something you can defend? Dr. Ketter: Looking for something that says: This is something that makes sense. We’re and educational institution let us come forward with a measure that we tell somebody else. This is more meaningful.’ can at least The Spectrum: Aren’t you trying to defend an academic system against budgetary people who don’t really have an insight into academic matters? but we’re in the education Dr. Ketter; Sure business, so why should we not be able to educate even budget people? The Spectrum: Written evaluation seems to have more substance than labeling a student A or B. The argument raised against it is, ‘Well, it 'll hurt you in grad school. ’Asa former dean of the graduate school, can you envision a situation where written evaluations would be used in upper-level courses ofa student's major? I Dr, Ketter: Supplementing a letter grade, yes don’t see it replacing it. The grade shouldn’t have to remain, but when you get applications from 10 times more students than you have space for, you have faculty members examining these, almost without exception, they take the easy way out. They will use written evaluations to fine-tune something, but they will want an initial cast of - - — - — - — - —Santos Dr. Ketter about it, that if you can’t sell the idea, ‘We are the masters of our destiny’, we have no future, other than to be like everybody else. The Spectrum: Is the 4<ourse load beneficial? Dr. Ketter: 1 was one of the people who supported the idea that 4 separate units of examination per given period of time is the maximum number a student can legitimately look at. 1 do not think the argument has to do with the 4-coursc load as opposed to a 5-course load or 6-course load. The question comes down to if whatever you give is reasonably marked in terms of the degree of effort, the degree of whatever you put into it. And it’s normally not an argument with regard to what does a student do, but what does a faculty member do that is always. The question is not the thing that comes take, the question is, courses "student how many effort does a member put in. faculty how much - utmost - - up and down. And we’d better get out of that mode of operation; jt just doesn’t make sense. It’s a credentialed society. But as long as there are 5000 students applying for 138 positions in medicine or 3000 for 200 positions in law and yet you know there are not that many jobs available when they get out. And they know it too. The Spectrum: Should the grad schools be turning out people in areas where the government says there will - be jobs? Dr. Ketter: My particular attitude toward education is that anyone who gets themselves into a framework whereby the education that they get is applicable only to one particular situation has the wrong education. Education should be more concerned with giving people the tools so they can attack a variety of problems, and so they can learn on their own. My own example: 1 got one Ph D, and by going another semester I could have gotten a second Ph.D, and when I enrolled for the class, I got called in by the dean of the graduate school, and he called me a horse’s ass. And 1 said, What’s wrong with getting two Ph.D’s? And he said, What do you think the first one’s all about? It says that we believe you can study on your own. If you want this thing, go out and study and get it. You don’t need somebody to give you that second pat on the head. 1 was hung up on the credential business, the idea of stacking things up after your name. We should not be turning out people who are obsolete as of the time they graduate or five years later. We should be turning out people who can take the education they’ve received and use it to solve any number of problems. But if you get yourself in those blinders that I’m a cultural sociologist, 1 studied the Aztecs, and if we can’t find any more Aztecs, I’m dead it doesn’t make sense. With some faculty members, the object is to reproduce people who look identically like they do; it’ the highest form of flattery. Monday, 25 February — — 1974 . The Spectrum . Page seven �■ ■ ■ . . V ■ ;$*• x , . ‘ t i»i’ ,V‘ ', •; 'f K?.i! •< . ■'•■ - DITORIAL Election endorsements " * > President Frank Jackalone combines knowledge, a real sensitivity to student concerns that will enable him to effectively lead student government. Mr. Jackalone will aggressively deal with the Administration "as a student, not like a fellow administrator" as Jon Dandes presently does. An Assemblyman and SA executive committee member not that well known to the student body, Mr. Jackalone has concrete, well thought-out ideas, a good grasp of the important issues and a decisive awareness of SA's problems. Extremely knowledgable on academics, Mr. Jackalone has specific proposals to save the Frank leadership, Jackalone integrity and progressive Colleges by personally confronting individual faculty and Administrators. He favors wider use of the Pass/No Credit grading option, and will bargain for more students on Faculty-Senate committees, where academic decisions are made. He will fight for the 4-course load; he rejects the idea that education equals credit hours and favors "learning outside the classroom." Mr. Jackalone has a comprehensive plan to revitalize the impotent Student Assembly by doing away with 40-signature petitioners who "represent themselves." He will strengthen both academic clubs and specific committees, which then produce carefully-considered would legislation to the Assembly floor. He has pledged increased funding for more activities and facilities on the Amherst Campus. He has promised $25,000 for WNYPIRG, and would have altered budgets to fund WNYPIRG after last fall's referendum because "it's the students' money, they should decide how it's spent." He intends to meet with minorities on a 1-to-l basis. Mr. Jackalone is a straightforward, honest individual who has displayed leadership in the Assembly all year. Having been frustrated by "SA executive committee power games," he would decentralize decision-making and appoint "ordinary students" to Sub-Board. Perhaps most important, Mr. Jackalone recognizes the apathy on campus and would "chip away" at it by public soliciting student input through and committees information, open SA meetings, Involving students with a specific area of interest. He would recall or publicly oppose irresponsible SA coordinators. He feels SA should take strong stands on issues, particularly academics, and use the press, rallies and boycotts if necessary to make the faculty and Administration listen. He will make an excellent SA President. Bob Burrick's face is quite familiar; as Speakers Bureau chairman, he has been seen with the likes of William Ruckelshaus and Jack Anderson. He has been a hard worker and good organizer in student government. But because he has only a superficial grasp of important issues, especially academics, he is simply unqualified to be SA President. Mr. Burrick is satisfied with SA's "good relationship" with President Ketter, and like Mr. he would not confront the Oandes, Administration and would probably weaken under its prodding. Mr. Burrick has only vaguq ideas of how he would support the Colleges and 4-course load, and has no real conception of how he would deal with the Faculty-Senate and Administration. His standard answer to every academic problem is a naive reliance on the University Assembly, a non-academic body. Mr. Burrick displayed no leadership abilities all year as a member of the SA executive committee and Student Assembly, and was frequently indecisive. He has pledged him commitment to fund WNYPIRG, but although he is an SA executive committee member, he was unfamiliar with its funding problems this year. He has, however, promised to improve living conditions on the Amherst Campus. Mr. Burrick's plan to strengthen the Student Assembly by building up academic clubs is a good one, but he is short on the specifics of achieving it. He is running on a platform of flashy proposals with many slogans, but they are mostly cosmetic, lacking substance and ways to implement them. In his zeal to get elected, Mr. Burrick has compromised himself by discussing post-election jobs and bargaining for political support. Besides questionable dealings, he would take too much power into his own hands, especially in appointments to Sub-Board and elsewhere. In sum, although Mr. Burrick has been an effective Speakers Bureau chairman and hard worker, he does not possess the qualities required of an effective SA President. Michael Koffler has a refreshingly good perception of student problems and strong activist convictions, but is weak on specifics; his lack of familiarity with the University structure would render him ineffective. Danny Rosenfeld is naive on the issues and vague on solutions. Ellen Haskin is running on a Marxist platform and admits she has no idea of how she would spend $800,000. Mr. Burrick's shallow grasp of important issues would render him a mediocre President at best. By virtue of knowledge, leadership, integrity and imagination, Frank Jackalone is by far the best qualified to be an activist and effective SA president. Vice-President: Scott Salimando As Mr. Jackalone's runningmate, Scott Salimando sees himself as a director of the revamped Student Assembly. Despite his forceful personality and excellent knowledge of issues, the Goodyear Hall president will play down his personal opinions in order to assert the power of the Student Assembly. While hi is concerned about making the Assembly "representative and effective," he is realistic and realizes the restructuring will take time and will not be a "panacea." Mr. Salimando has a good conception of SA—IRC cooperation on the North Campus, will insure that coordinators do their job, and looks legislation from for well-researched strengthened Assembly committees. Carol Stykes would probably work well with the Student Assembly and coordinators, but she represents the status quo of an ineffective Assembly. She is weak on the issues, particularly academics, and would yield too easily to the Administration. If the Athletic Department threatened to close the gym, SA would "probably have to give in," she believes. A lackluster participant in this year's deadhead Student Assembly, she has few new ideas. While Ms. Stykes would probably do an adequate, status quo job, Mr. Salimando is the far superior candidate for vice-president. Vice-President for Sub-Board: Rich Hochman Knowledgable about Sub-Board's problems and not mired in the status quo, Rich Hochman is 1 Page eight. The Spectrum .Monday* 25 February 1974 an excellent candidate. The Health Care division director brings a managerial approach to the long-needed task of de-politicizing Sub-Board. Mr. tbe Board out of Hochman would hands off the day-tonlay operations internal priorities of Sub-Board's organizations, retaining only fiscal responsibility. He has an excellent knowledge of which areas can be made income-offset, so that most of Sub-Board's enterprises can eventually break even. Mr. Hochman has long-range plans for Sub-Board's growth and expansion, including lobbying in Albany. While Eileen Schleetein of the Housing corporation could probably do an adequate job, she lacks experience with Sub-Board's problems. She is involved and sincere, pressing the educational role of Sub-Board, but has only sketchy ideas about income-offset and FSA. Ms. Schleelein is knowledgable but would be poor at pushing to get things done; her leadership is questionable. Mr. Hochman deserves to be elected. . Treasurer: Mike Phillips Although neither candidate is ideal, Mike Phillips' financial expertise makes him the superior candidate. After working for the SA Finance Committee and Sub-Board's banking office, Mr. Phillips knows the fiscal end of student government as well as anyone In the school. Although he has a distorted view of the Administration and FSA, he has an excellent knowledge of student government workings. Mr. Phillips is also exploring supplemental funding for athletics. Although his rapport with people has been questioned, we hope he will acquire the personal diplomacy that the job of Treasurer requires. Sal Napoli's lack of fiscal experience disqualifies him from serious consideration as Treasurer. With sketchy budget priorities, and no working knowledge of student government channels, including Sub-Board, FSA and the Administration, it would take Mr. Napoli most of the year just to learn his way around. He wouldn't know where to go if the Administration vetoed an SA expenditure. While Mr. Napoli did a good job managing Ski Club, that is not the same as handling $800,000. Academic Affairs: Mark Humm Mark Humm and Pam Benson are both extremely qualified. Ms. Benson is familiar with the Administration, and would lobby on a 1-to-1 basis with Faculty-Senators. She would work to get more faculty and money for the Colleges and for an ABC/No Credit grading system. Although she is extremely knowledgable on academics, her lack of assertiveness presents the risk that her voice might be drowned out. While Ms. Benson knows where to go to get things done, we feel she would ask and not pressure. Mark Humm, with his persuasive and forceful personality, will get things done. Mr. Humm will actively defend the Colleges' need for autonomy, recognizing the Reichert Prospectus' emphasis on "legitimacy at the expense of innovation and creativity." Perceptive and realistic, he would actively seek student imput and reflect student concerns by badgering He Administrators. Faculty-Senators and recognizes that grades are "arbitrary," that the University is "becoming a factory," and would strengthen student academic clubs and the student voice in academic decisions. While Ms. Benson and Mr. Humm are both well-qualified and knowledgable, we believe Mr. Humm's persuasiveness would enable him to be a more effective Academic Affairs coordinator. Carol Mahoney, who just transferred here, is knowledgable on academics and has potential, but has an unrealistic view of compromising with the Administration and faculty. Without more seasoning into campus politics, she would risk making student concessions for nothing in return. Dorian Levine has little concept of academics and is unqualified. �Student Rights: Hilary Lowell Hilary Lowell would bring broad experience the Legal Aid Clinic to this post. An expert on in housing problems wfftHhiri written a book on landlord/tenant disputed Mr. Lowell would publicize the grievance procedure, and try to get Campus Security to have Vnore faith in the Student-Wide Judiciary. He has a lawyer-like approach, however, and would not favor student rallies to oppose arming of Campus Security. Hoping that he will take a more assertive role than he has in the Legal Aid Clinic, we feel Mr. Lowell is the best candidate for Student Rights Student Affairs: Howie Shapiro This year's North Campus coordinator, Howie Schapiro is experienced and knows the Administration channels to achieve results. He would investigate Food Service, Off-Campus Housing and Financial Aid, take the initiative at Orientation and send mailings to transfer students. He plans a comprehensive booklet of student services and has a good feel for SA—IRC cooperation on Amherst Campus activities. Mr. Schapiro is well-suited for Student Affairs. Malcolm Kurin, however, knows little of housing, financial aid, parking and DUS advisement problems. He conceives of Student Affairs as student services; he would investigate the Rathskellar. With no working knowledge of student problems, Mr. Kurin is unqualified. Martin Brooks is an excited individual with good ideas who should stay in student government. However, he lacks knowledge in key areas and is admittedly more concerned with "legalistic, intangible things." His main focus would thus be a student rights research group. Because we feel the Student Rights coordinator must be an activist investigator, Mr. Brooks would not be the best choice. Despite a forceful personality that would enable him to take an activist role, Larry Katz lacks direction and new ideas. He would attempt to upgrade the quality of advice dispensed by the Legal Aid Clinic. However, he is vague on his other concrete plans and lacks a clear sense of priorities. Student Activities: Sylvia Goldschmidt Goldschmidt has an extensive Sylvia knowledge of the clubs, would resist interest group pressures, and will help strengthen the academic clubs. As a Resident Advisor, she has developed the interpersonal skills needed for this job. Ms. Goldschmidt has excellent ideas on publicity, recruiting, and keeping tabs on clubs through monthly reports. Her presence is needed. Bill Walsh is sincere but plainly lacks experience. His only criterion for funding clubs would be the number of members; he said he National Affairs: Michele Smith WNYPIRG veteran Michele Smith is a hard She would impressive experience. with worker expand the scope of the job to include student-related community affairs such as housing, mass transit and the Amherst Campus area.

International Affairs: Eihanan Keinan has the dynamic, Elhanan Keinan to be an outstanding personality charismatic for international students. An representative level, Mr. Keinan has an a personal activist on with rapport people and an acute excellent problems. Stressing of students' foreign awareness "more than just color American culture is that TV's," he has the vibrant personality to affect a mutual exchange between foreign and Amderican students.

Monday, 25 February 1974 . an excellent benefit concert by Ken Licata Spectrum Arts Staff To assist the refugees of the recent political upheaval in Chile, the Cleveland Quartet performed ao benefit concert Sunday in Capen 140. The room was bad, the crowd was good, and the Quartet was great. In fact, if there is a more energetic and sensitive quartet aroung today, then its existence is a well-guarded secret. Sunday’s concert Opened with the Mozart Adagio and Fugue in c minor, dedicated to the lives lost in Jthe Chilean struggle. It is a sobering work, intensely shadowy. The Quartet’s Romantic un-Mozartian rendition was fitting in light of the setting. One of the striking things about the Cleveland Quartet is the degree of coalescence which the members exhibit. As they play, they constantly watch each other, using each other’s phrases as The result is a holistic entity which four thoughts from a single mind. sounds like Franz Schubert’s frantic Death and the Maiden string quarted proved to be an excellent vehicle for the talents of the Cleveland Quartet. Its mournful urgency relents only in the second of the four movements. The other three darkly explore the < minor modes. Here, at the expressive climax of the program, expressiveness could be seen in the faces of the players as well as heard in the sonorities they were producing. Although the acoustics of Butler Auditorium tended to blur some of the rapid forte passages, the galloping whirlwind of the last movement brought the audience to its feet, shouting its approval. Responding to the rousing ovation, the Quartet consented to an encore. In the world of “classical” concerts an encore is a real treat, not part of standard procedure as in rock concerts. And a treat it was, as violinist Donald Weilerstein included some prefatory remarks with the “Arguments” movement of Charles Ives’s second string quartet. This is probably the funniest movement in music literature and the Cleveland Quartet’s performance, aided by Mr. Weilerstein’s explanation, brought down the house. ’ Also included in the beginning of the program was the Op. 18, No. 3 Quartet of Ludwig van Beethoven, to which the Quartet lent its usual fluidity and clarity. Congratulations are in order for the performance, as well as for the recent Grammy Award nomination for the group’s recording of the Brahms String Quartets on RCA Red Seal.

These statements were written by the candidates themselves, in response to written questions submitted by The Spectrum. The Spectrum assumes no editorial responsibility for the content of The very concept of student government is based on the reality that we. as students, must be represented in University decisions. Far too often in the past, our Student Association has been blind to the fact that, within the realm of university life, academic policies have the greatest affect upon students, and, therefore, require a very significant level of student input. The future role of Student Association in academics must be one in which it can effectively deal with the Faculty-Senate and the Administration. The first step in this effort is to make the Student Association respected as capable of considering academic issues. The S.A. Academic Affairs Committee must be totally restructured so that its members be departmental collegiate representatives. Furthermore, Student Association must be able to present its bargaining position as one based on student support. S.A. must actively inform students of the facts concerning campus issues, so that a new student awareness can be mobilized into a force and to be heard. The specific areas of concern in academics that will require a strong student voice in the future may be outlined. 1 Student Association should use its full resources to save the innovative nature of the Colleges by maximizing collegiate input on the Chartering Committee and on the —continued on page 12 — — Mike Koffler What role should student government play in the academic decision-making process?

The student government should play an active role in the academic decision-making process. The role should be an advisory and resolutory one. The school's administration has in the past been the sole decider of events and changes with respect to the procedural aspect of learning. It is my suggestion that the administration allow there to be a liaison board between the students and the administration which will have the following powers. First, the power to veto new policy. Secondly, the power to initiate new policy. The result will be a university which is in part organized and functioning by the needs of the students. Recently there has been action taken to abolish the Colleges. I feel that that would be detrimental to our learning experience. The Colleges are a point of distinction between this university and any other school. The sense of individuality that one feels when he is able to take courses that are genuinely interesting would be destroyed if the Colleges disappear. Our four-course load is another distinction between this and other schools. As a student at the University of Buffalo one can take four courses and can delegate his time so that each class gets maximum attention. If we change over to a five-course load, the result would be inadequate time for each of one's courses. Our grading However, I think that system is adequate. —continued on page 12— Danny Rosenfeld What role should student government play in the academic decision-making process? Include in your answer an explanation of your position on the Colleges, the 4-course load, the Faculty-Senate, grading and how you would insure a student voice in Administration policy-making. * Photos by Kim Santos ; V * * Students on this campus are lacking an influential voice in deciding academic policies. The weakness in the university academic system has been shown by the ill treatment of the colleges by the faculty and the administration. Students must organize to get the needed reforms giving them an influential voice in academic affairs. They must picket, hold demonstrations, and even call a student strike if necessary. They will not get anything otherwise. The administration has taken advantage of the lack of student involvement in governing the academic policies of the university- This is why the colleges are in danger of being swallowed, the 4-course system being abolished, and the undercutting of many popular student programs. The colleges need sufficient funds from the university in order to run effectively, which they do not have now. Flexibility of the colleges will be'hurting if the Reichert perspectus does what it wants to the experimentation that has previously been allowed in the classroom. The autonomy inherent in the colleges should be retained, the autonomy that the prospectus provides turns the colleges into another bureaucratic department of the university.

In order to insure that the spirit of experimental education is not lost from the Collages, I will appoint members from tha Collegiate Assembly at the two to the Collage undergraduate Charter Council. Faculty-Senate For too many years, academic policy has been totally supervised by tenured faculty whose touch with educational reality is sometimes questionable. My intention is for students to be represented on all Faculty-Senate Committees and to insure representation which reflects the viewpoints of the student body. Grading Although my personal preference is towards an A, B, C No Record System, the — — student referendum this past fall indicated that students overwhelmingly are satisfied with tha present grading system. I shall, however, continue to place the entire question of grading at the forefront of my priorities. State your budgetary priorities, including proposed funding for Day Caro Canter, CAC, WNYPIRG, minority student organizations and tha dubs. Should Sub-Board I and the Athletic Department receive more, the tame or leas money than last year, and why? The question of fiscal priority is one that must be answered solely on the basis of student interest and involvement. That is to say, those programs which ultimately benefit the most students should be made the top priorities of any budgetary process. On this basis than, if we can assess these programs on the basis of their student support we can then intelligently and uniformly insure that those programs get funded so that they can function and thrive. Programs such as WNYPIRG, Athletics, and CAC which have demonstrably shown that they are widely supported should benefit from this by receiving increased funding. Sub-Board I, Inc. whose original was to move toward an income-offset status is only recently approaching that stage and should continue to do so. It is at a point now where student government allocations should be decreased. The Day Care Center and Health Care Divisions whose constituency is University-Wide, and not solely undergraduate should be kept within the realm of Sub-Board I, Inc. so that undergraduate students are not forced to solely provide the funding. I will encourage ample funding for both of these programs. Minority Student Organizations are better equipped to deal with the specific problems of their constituencies. In this context, they must be allowed the autonomy to function independently. Along with this responsibility, however, I recognize the SA commitment to the majority of the campus that does not function within these groups, and believe that we must arrange our priorities accordingly. support intent Many students on this campus do not look to student government for leadership. Would you attempt to change this? If so, why and how? If not, why not? It will be my intent this year to focus and amplify student opinion through the Student Association. By the support I hope to generate, it will then be the responsibility of the SA Executive Committee to fulfill the leadership role that I see as its function. This leadership shall be manifested by more actively communicating with students through forums, public statements, and increased communication with student interest groups. Communication between students and the SA President should not stop with the elections. By increasing the flow of information I hope to establish SA as the primary vehicle through which student opinion is articulated. It must always be remembered that SA exists solely to represent student interests. In this context, the leadership role which SA should play is one of first attaining the confidence of the student populace by demonstrating its sensitivity and then maintaining this respect and integrity by following through on student opinion. The SA President should be allowed responsibility for SA policy, but as a corollary must be accountable for his actions to the student body. . .

With regards to intercollegiate athletics, we believe that a joint effort on the part of the administration, tha alumni, and students to establish high quality teams in the spectator sports will be a positive step towards an income-offset athletic program. CAC mutt b« viewed as unquestioned in value and shall be supported at least at the level of funding of the currant year.

While minority organizations must have the finances to provide a variety of activities for their people, no funding will occur unless budgets are justified in the same way required by S.A. of all other organizations. Club budgeting priorities will be reordered to make available additional funds to those funds that service large numbers of students. Many students on this campus do not look to student government for leadership. Would you attempt to change this? M so, why and how? If not, why not? Student government can only be as strong as the voice of the students behind it. Student Association has proven itself an ineffectual organization in representing student's concerns and this ineffectiveness must be directly linked to the fact that students don't look to S.A. for leadership.

The Spectrum Monday, 25 February 4974 . . The NOVA party is calling for a new voice in student government. The violence of the sixties and the apathy of the present have both proven incapable of protecting students' rights. The time has come for a new brand of student activism based on effective lines of communication. Student Association must achieve a much broader base of participation in which representatives are directly channeled into areas of concern such as academics, students' rights, and community affairs. Representatives must be actively organized as a means to contact those students who are not directly involved in S.A. Student Association must set as its two highest priorities (a) informing students about S.A. activities and policies, and (b) actively seeking student input. Only by communicating with its people will S.A. be capable of leading them. My role as S.A. president will be to provide leadership based on student wants. I will attempt to communicate with both the faculty and the Administration. If students' rights are ignored, I will take a firm public stand in opposition. I will have the necessary confidence knowing my voice is the students' voice. Mike Koffler . . . instructors should whenever possible write an evaluation of the student. This would result in a unification of student and faculty caused by the personal touch needed to compose an evaluation. State your budgetary priorities, including proposed funding for Day Cara Center, CAC, WNYPIRG, minority student organizations and the dubs. Should Sub-Board I and the Athletic Department receive more, the same or less money than last year, and why? The budget that we create each year is a statement of priority. When writing a budget my priorities put the minority student organizations up high. I think that minority groups deserve to have substantial allocations so that their people can be aware of their activities and to that their communities can become involved in the group's functions. Along with this I feel that-the Athletic Department and WNYPIRG deserve priority position. The Athletic Department has a tendency to unit* people. I contend that any organization that can effectively unit* the students in thl* university is a top priority. Sub-Board I is also In need of an increment. I feel this because! would like to expand the Board to include an organization which unites private civic and ethnic dubs and organizations with our school. Such an addition requires funds. I would Oka funds to be available for that purpose. Meny students on this campus do not look to student government for leadership. Would you attempt to change this? If so, why and how? If not, why not? Our university seems to be notorious for on apathetic viewpoint of the students when it comas to student government I feel very strongly on this point. My plan to get people involved is to establish an office at cabinet level. I will be called the Office of Student Information. Its function will be to arouse people and get them involved in the activity and progressions of the Student Association. My main objective as President is to express the desires of the students. Those desires can not be accounted for if the students react apathetically to events and policy. I will devote myself to the goal of making this school a united and interested university. If it means we should have a football team. I’m for that. If it means having good concerts, I'm for that. At a candidate for action and change, respectfully submit this statement. Danny Rosenfeld r . . I . • make things a little easier for them. I will stimulate more community involvement with the collages and the university. The school and the university have been traditionally too isolated from each other to reap the benefits that each offer. Students need more representation on the Faculty-Senate. Not students who sit there and taka up space, but students who participate in the actual decisions concerning academics. This is a lot to ask considering that faculty members without tenure or most of the faculty who are radical do not have this privilege. The university has a long way to go before granting students their long overdue academic rights. And student involvement is the only way to get it. State your budgetary priorities, including proposed funding for Day Cara Canter, CAC, WNYPIRG, minority, student organizations and the clubs. Should Sub-Board I and the Athletic Department receive more, the same or Ian money than Int year and why? It would be very difficult for me to lit down and say to you exactly how much I am planning to give to each group, since I have not actually sat down and talked to their representatives concerning the future needs and aspirations of their specific group. Making a specific plan for a budget now would be impractical, considering the amount of change going on in the university and community. Even in the few short weeks until election, events might possibly come up that would considerably alter the shape of student affairs. Day Care Center, CAC, and their affiliated organizations should have their budget increased to accommodate the growing needs of the student body. In order to make a fair decision concerning WNYPIRG's allocation, I would have to know more about the organization. From what I do know of them now, I would be inclined to drop their budget slightly. Minority students should receive about the same they are getting now, and they should be given it when it is due. The Athletic Department should receive more than they are getting this year. Many students get enjoyment out of watching student sports, and in participating in student intramurals. These programs have been underfunded taking away what is enjoyable to the university. If gym was dropped as a requirement, then the money saved from that could be given over to Athletics dispelling much of their financial instability and providing students with more recreation. I have not spoken in depth to Sub-Board members, but from what I know of their budget I think it should be dropped slightly. Both The Spectrum and Ethos have their own means of making money, and should be able to handle a lot of their own finances. This would have to be looked into when I assume office. Many students on this campus do not look to student government for leadership. Would you attempt to change this? If so, why and how? If v not, why not? Students in this university have not looked to the student government for leadership, because it �ha( not taken the lead in the most disturbing controversial issues.

In the past, they have been forced to take it upon themselves to represent their own interests, and go after them by themselves. These groups should have been backed by the student body, and thair planned events endorsed and sponsored by the Student Association. In fact, the SA should have represented these groups, united with them, worked with them for their goal. This is what needs to be done in order for the student government to gain the confidence of the students and to get our problems solved. the forty (40) signature petition to get on S.A. 3.

What, if any, changes would you make? The Student Assembly has been plagued in the past years by its own structure. The present interest group structure has drawn Assembly members with vested interests and narrow minds. In the past the Assembly has been primarily a budgeting body because of this structure, and has time and time again failed in the passing of attempts to handle relevant student issues. Attempts by past Student Associations to create an effective Student Assembly within the present Scott Soiimando Presently, the Student Assembly is exactly what the students think it is: an ineffective farce. Consider the following: attendance at Assembly meetings is very poor. Those who attend are not accountable to the students or their constituencies. The meetings are so ill-prepared that the members seldom know what they're voting on. And when they do vote, they vote more from ignorance and boredom rather than from a position of knowledge. Obviously, if even the Assembly members don't know what’s going on, one cannot expect the student body, the faculty, or the administration to take the Assembly seriously! It just can't be done. Hear me out. I believe I have the ideas for Assembly reform that can rectify the situation. They are the following: 1. Redirect the present committee systems of S.A. so that more legislation originates from them. 2. Do away with have reached this point. They believe that their job it done. They’re wrong. The Vice-President hat the integral responsibility of keeping his Assembly and the student body informed on all the issues. This meant sending out information to Assembly members well in advance of meetings so they will be able to participate intelligently. It alto meant using the media and other forms of public information to tell the people what it going on at Assembly meetings and, more important, how their money is being spent. Finally, the Vice-President must be the one man "in-the-know" at all times. He must be able to use his knowledge to communicate with every structure has proven unsuccessful. If elected, I will attempt to implement a change in Student Assembly structure to move towards academic representation rather than interest groups which have never been properly defined in the past. Under this system, the Assembly will be much more representative and will be better equipped to become the effective student voice it should. The attempt to increase student interest in the Student Assembly by holding meetings in the Haas Lounge has not created any significant increase in the popularity of Assembly meetings. What it has done is create an atmosphere which is not conducive to running an effective meeting placing a great strain on those persons responsible for keeping order, I would suggest that meetings body be effective it must first take the concern of responsible students and qualified leaders. Any change that need be will soon follow. How do you interpret the role of the Vice-President aside from the prescribed Student Assembly duties? The role of the Executive Vice-President of Student Association is one of the most crucial factors contributing to the success of student government on this campus. As the coordinating link between the major branches of Student Association the Executive Vice-President must first create a creditable Student Assembly, see that a proper flow of information is created between the President, Executive Committee, and the Assembly, and than use that Assembly to initiate realistic legislation. A second function of the Executive Vice-President is to strengthen the weaknesses of the President. In this context the Vice-President must be ready at all times to step right into a decision making role in areas where the President, for one reason or another, is unable to act.

VICE-PRESIDENT FOR SUB BOARD I * Rich Hochman What diraction should Sub-Board I move in? Include in your answer a discussion of financial priorities, structure, and moda of operation. ■ Sub-Board I, Inc. is a corporation owned and operated by the students of SUNYAB, and should act and respond as such. I think the first responsibility of Sub-Board is to provide student services; services which the students want and need and which the state does not provide for them. The board, in order to insure its continued existence must move closer to a break-even basis. It is my opinion that in its financial priorities the board must determine what services the students desire and the priorities should be so aligned. The structure of the board should be changed so as to provide consistency, and long range structure plans must be made within the next year. I am personally inclined to the recommended two year stagger membership system, with possible campus wide elections for board membership rather than continuing functioning of Student Association and tha aetlvitiaa it supports? priorities, structure, and moda of operation. Sal Napoli Sub Board I, a corporation for students, must student-service orientation in mind. Those areas of universal student interest must be supported to the extant possible and matters of immediate interest should be carefully considered. In light of the fact that priorities change from time to time, I feel that projects should, just the same, not be abandoned because they have fallen out of tha limelight. Diversity has its place on a campus such as this. Health Cara and Publications should be given every consideration to insure their stability and viability. With Health Care working on an income-offset basis and Publications expanding, these areas of student concern should be fully maintained. Housing has weathered various critical stages well, and through wise management will relieve Sub-Board of a financial burden, and at the same time remain for the benefit of If mandatory student foot am abolished in April, what stape would you taka to inaura tha continuing functioning of Studant Aaaociation and tha aetivitiaa it aupporta? operate with a students. Of concern regarding activities and events on this campus are the problems UUAB has faced in the past finding places and facilities in order to materialize ideas. Recognizing this, different proposals to open a "pub" on campus coffeehouses, etc. are being investigated. Abolishing the mandatory student fees on this campus would cripple S.A. and student activities as well as sat dangerous precedents for other campuses unless quick and efficient steps are taken immediately. 1. Publicity. Now is the time to impress upon students the necessity of student fees. This can be done by combining the efforts of S.A. and the media on this campus to make public the pros and cons of this upcoming student referendum. 2. Voluntary Fees. If the mandatory fees are down, I feel it would be necessary to voted institute a voluntary student fee. This income would be used to continue to support the small clubs that depend on S.A. for their existence. Naturally, the fee would be significantly reduced. I don't think that any student would be willing 5. Stiff admission charges to all events for non 6. In answering this question, I will discuss my financial priorities and the means for would view it as part of my job to go to Albany and seek a change in mandatory fee guidelines, so as to allow expansion into health care, housing, legal aid and other areas of student concern where expenditure of student mandatory fee money is limited. would you resolve the inevitable conflicts between your role as an undergraduate representative to Sub-Board (which represents the entire student body), and as chief officer with financial responsibilities for e corporation? How One must first note that the candidate elected Student Association Vice-President to Sub-Board, is not necessarily the chief officer of the Corporation, but is either the Chairman or the Treasurer depending upon the vote of the board members, including members from five other student governments. As an officer of Sub-Board it would be my duty to serve all students of the University, including the undergraduates. Sub Board as a student corporation should by virtue of its nature represent the needs of the students. In a conflict situation the best interests of the corporation would probably guide my actions. I do not anticipate that the conflicts would be either numerous or serious in nature, if Sub-Board is really representative of the students as I would believe it to be. to shell out $67 a year, voluntarily. But if we publicize the large cutbacks in activities that may occur, I am confident that we will receive support from the students. 3. Athletics. It will be necessary to pressure the state to subsidize the athletics program. We would not be able to give them the subsidy they need. Financial Independence. I will actively rapid transition to income-offset operation for major student organization, including S.A. organizations such as Sub Board I provide the bulk of student activities and participation on this campus.

By the same token, all constituencies have a voice regarding direction on policy, (and all constituencies should be proportionally represented.) As an undergraduate representative, the Vice-President for Sub-Board should represent the views of undergraduates. However, serving at the same time as chairperson of Sub-Board, he must exercise prudence in decision making so as not to sacrifice the credit of Sub-Board I for any one faction. Provided all views are adequately presented, there should be no real conflict in serving in both capacities; since policy is set not by any one individual, but by a majority of the entire Board. Furthermore, I would say that it is more often than not that worthwhile projects benefit all students regardless of their division and that it is unrealistic to delineate and segregate for most issues. On the contrary. Sub-Board I should have as a main goal the development of a consciousness, in order to make it an effective, functioning unit. and TREASURER If elected I hope to be able to serve diligently and in a manner which will justify the trust placed in me by the student body.

This can be accomplished provided that Sub-Board acts as a truly representative body, through direct election of at least 50% of its membership.

In light of the above, I will institute the following: 1. Establishing a voluntary fee of $35. Sub 2.

Reduction in scheduling and elimination of non-major varsity I'm sick of hearing about pressure from special interest groups. There is not one club, organization or whatever, that doesn’t put pressure on the treasurer for more money. Fact is, the Treasurer is merely a caretaker who must follow financial guidelines that are set up with the student's interests in mind. The problem comes down to whether or not you're able to work with people. All the bookkeeping and accounting experience in the world isn't worth a damn if you can't understand their position and explain what you can and cannot do for them. Special interest groups are just that, special. They have needs and priorities that other groups don't, and therefore require special attention. I guess the reason I place so much emphasis on dealing with people, stems from my work with Schussmeisters Ski Club Vnc. As treasurer of the corporation; I worked with the Business Manager as liaisons between our 2000 members and 5 major ski areas in W.N.Y. Our meetings with these community businessmen impresses upon me the importance of being a good P.R. person. I’m not saying that accounting and management skills are not important. Schussmeisters has one of the largest and most diversified cash flows among the student organizations. Without accurate bookkeeping, it would be impossible to plan and finance future endeavors of the club. By using my skills in management and person-person communication, I know that I can supply a strong basis for a smooth relationship between the treasurer and all groups, special or otherwise.

Include eny relevant experience which qualifies you for this position. During the past year, many crucial academic questions have come into focus with little responsible student input. The student voice has not been adequately heard in matters such as the Colleges, grading, and tenure decisions. It is time that we assemble together and deal with these dilemmas in a concrete manner. There has been little, if any, effective and reliable student input on departmental committees. This is predominantly where decisions on hiring faculty, tenure, and departmental policies are made. By strengthening academic clubs, we can provide responsible student input. This can be achieved by directly say that the Coordinator should ba one to give everything he can to build such a relationship in return for nothing but hopes that students have gained an inactive, but sympathetic and attentive ear. Bargaining power must be initiated for a trade in votes on key committees at the University level for departmental representation on Academic Affairs. Such a move may facilitate rapid compromises on heated issues with an assurance of student support. This is a much needed and attainable goal which I have seen through working with administration on many levels at Fredonia State. These include President's Cabinet, various faculty-student committees. Faculty Council, and Chairman of Operations and Procedures Committee which reviews all academic proposals going before the student assembly. Now, a few legislative goals, dependent primarily upon the level of success of the first which avoids probable hostile reception by those uninformed or uninvolved in their creation-: 1. Academic Bankruptcy an option for one semester from their — students to strike transcript. departmental organizations to handle student problems, provide input in departmental decisions, and serve as a potent, political base for a more representative Student Assembly. Academically, I do not believe respectability and accountability should be endorsed at the expense of innovation and creativity, in the and departments. Each year U.B becomes more of an academic factory, and I will emphasize to the departments, faculty, and advisors the importance of personal development as an aspect of undergraduate education. This year you need someone who knows the system and can provide credibility to the faculty and administration, and also to the students. Dorian Levine 2. Retainment of the four course system. 3.

Include any relevant experience which qualifies you for this position. As Student R ights Coordinator, i must initiate and carry out programs that protect and expand student rights. My plans to do so are divided into three levels. The first consists of services, i plan to institute a system of lockers placed in key building to minimize theft and inconvenience, i will continue to fight for a university traffic court, for greatly improved safety and security on the North Campus, and the non-arming of campus security. Public Information is the second level of concern. The SUNYAB student is generally unaware or misinformed of his rights. It is crucial that next year i work with legal organizations to inform students about their rights and the services available to them. I plan to organize a Student Research Group to increase the efficiency of the investigation and reporting of violations of student rights. The third level, underlying the above two deals with constitution safeguards. A code of rights legitimizing both contacting persons within these clubs and helping them solve the problems which are plaguing them and bring bade renewed student enthusiasm. Student-Faculty communication has been impaired this year. We hope to improve our relationship by placing effective, reliable students on Faculty-Senate committees and by revitalizing the University Assembly with competent, students. Students were not responsibly represented on such issues as grading and the Colleges. We feel that the Colleges must be adequately funded to ensure their survival against the stringent conditions set forth in the Reichert # broad concepts such as the right to higher education and specific pts. such as invasion of privacy in dormitories and the confidentiality of student records must be presented to the university.

Include any relevant experience which qualifies you for this position. I have sufficient knowledge in academics on our campus to understand the situation. Also, my knowledge of government, politics, and Student Association more than qualify me to effectively represent students. In the past year I have been an active Assembly man, served on the Finance Committee and Athletic Review Board, and worked all summer on the Student Affairs fall orientation. Having studied politics and government and completely absorbing myself in S.A , I am most able in dealing with the problems of 205's bureaucracy, seeing the faults in our student government, and capable of correcting them. The two main points of my candidacy attempt to move away from the present elitist, autocratic student government to a rrloVe representative, yet effective, form.

An evaluation of the present system will be undertaken with student, faculty, and staff input to determine problems and means of resolving them. Questions and confusion often arise over such matters as interpretation of grades, transcripts, and departmental requirements.

Just one possibility for improvement is to have legal advice provided to undergraduates by competent law students enrolled on a work-study basis. Other priorities include improving the services provided by the bookstore and by food service. It is obvious to most students that they are simply not getting their money’s worth. Another area of concern is campus parking. This problem can be alleviated by strictly enforcing the restriction against faculty members parking in student lots and by a fairer apportionment of parking lots between students and faculty members. As a former justice of the Inter-Residence Judiciary and the Student Judiciary, and a present justice of the Student-Wide Judiciary, I believe that I have the experience and dedication needed to bring about these as well as many other improvements. With the close interaction I have had through the past three years with campus security, housing, the courts and Legal Aid, the administration, and the various offices of the student government, I strongly feel that I am the most qualified person to fill the position of Student Rights Coordinator. Hilary Lowell State your goals for the coming year and how you plan to achieve them. Include any relevant experience which qualifies you for this position. Through my involvements, I have developed experience and expertise necessary to perform the duties of Student Rights the Coordinator As a freshman, I .was involved as dormitory representative and activities chairman. Since then, I’ve earned a directorship in the Student Legal Aid Clinic. Here, I have not only managed and planned an important service organization, but also served as a source of guidance for many students seeking legal redress. In addition, for the majority who eventually live off-campus. I've written and published a 60-page manual, the Buffalo Housing Book. My dedication to US’s students is best expressed by my position as Director of the UB The first and most important achievement of the Academic Affairs Coordinator should be to establish an open, two-way working relationship primarily those with faculty and administrators most related to and involved with the making of academic policy. To accomplish such a rapport is a time consuming, yet worthwhile task. Once the fine lines of communication are a reality, student input becomes recognized as a valuable, undisregartjable source for policy. This is not to Bail Fund. I’ve spent many nights in Buffalo's — deep involvement with the Student Assembly and the Caucus that has given me the necessary grasp on the realities of the position, and the sincerity of my commitment to students' rights qualifies me tor this coordinator position Larry Katz State your goals for the coming year and how you plan to achieve them. Include any relevant experience which qualifies you for this position. Since the formation of the Legal Aid Clinic, a question often asked is whether there is any longer a need for the office of Student Rights Coordinator. I strongly believe that this office is needed now more than ever. While Legal Aid can help with individual problems, it is only the Student Rights Coordinator who has the ability to safeguard the rights of the entire student body Police Stations, posting bail for UB students, thus keeping them out of jail. These activities have given me the vision necessary to become a successful Student Rights Coordinator. My proposals are as follows; 1. Strengthen, vitalize, and publicize the newly created Student-Wide Judiciary. With proper publicity, and by lending respect to the Monday, 25 February * \ - i v ifci- ’vr •; vc Spectrum Page fifteen The 1974 .*!i:j .iiittjL as-atji'U: t.til I yLlju'JX . . •»,! �decisions of this Court, we can resolve the personal conflicts and prominent issues facing the entire student body. 2.

The National Affairs Committee will be vital for the implementation of these programs, as will be a strengthened University Governance. Still, the office itself demands competence and experience. Interning in Washington has Christ Gaetanos campuses. I feel that my past work with Student Association, combined with my experience as Allenhurst Activities Chairman and I.R.C. representative give me the qualifications necessary to get the job done. More importantly, I hope to add the innovation needed to provide the students with their money's worth in services. Intramurals serve an important function as a source of exercise, co-educational activity and relaxed enjoyment in a congenial atmosphere. I have actively participated in many of the sports and can appreciate their importance. I would want to provide a strong environment for their successful continuation through strong recommendations to the President of the S.A. & SARB, more publicity and developing a good relationship with the Athletic Department. I would use my influence in a similar manner to initiate a greater interest in women's varsity and guidelines.

Student Affairs Committee hat served at that group which plans for fall orientation. In my opinion, this vital committee hat not only fallen short in providing a meaningful fall program, but has also failed in offering students any variety of activities and services during the remainder of the year. In regard to orientation, I am convinced that the fall programs do not reflect the special needs of transfers, commuters, and incoming freshmen. I will seek to establish separate programs geared to each of these groups. Furthermore, I would create a Student Transfer Council and Commuter Grievance Board to determine the needs of these neglected people, not only during orientation, an active and directly involved role in clubs, special interest groups and special activities. ■— It is necessary to strengthen our clubs and special interest groups to insure greater one of the least defined offices under the S.A. constitution. In the past, however, operation of the Summer and Fall Orientation Program was defined. At present, a report is being compiled evaluating last year's orientation. I will use this report as a stepping-stone in planning this year's orientation. I plan to organize a comprehensive document, consisting of the various services offered by this University. Far too many are not aware of available services. This year, the jurisdiction of the Student Affairs Coordinator expanded to include the Amherst Campus. During the past year I've held the office of North Campus Coordinator. Important progress has been made in identifying association and the National Student Lobby, all of which are engaged in providing input of a student viewpoint into decision-making bodies, including and especially legislative bodies. The delegates to these groups are student who determine the particular direction which these associations assume. It is my desire tto keep in personal contact with these representatives, representatives and with'the students so that the particular direction is in part determined by this campus' students. Also, I intend to publicize, through the use of campus publications and personal contact, the programs and progress of these groups, to elicit awareness and reaction. I have two specific proposals: 1. The creation of a regional student credit bureau which will allow members of this University community to borrow at lower interest rates and invest at higher interest rates than are presently offered at banks; 2. The reinstitution on this campus of an Emergency Loan Program, whereby any student can obtain a small loan on short notice to cover emergency expenditures.

Qualified by my former positions of president and treasurer of the B.C.C. Players in Binghamton and my past participation as assistant director of Panic Theater, my primary concern is the reviewing and reviving of club activities. I find that many clubs are redundant in their purposes and are wasting the student's money.

This is due to the fact that this University has not made a strong commitment to these students. Instead, it has given us some money, an office, and a lot of empty promises of concern. In effect, the University wants us to be neither seen or heard. It elected, I am going to change all this. After I'm done, the Minority Affairs office will be respected and listened to. In order to accomplish this, I plan the following: 1. To centrally coordinate all minority affairs events. This will enhance the cohesion of the clubs. 2.

To rectify this I propose: 1.

Only 23 fouls were called, fourteen on Buffalo, and the Bulls turned over the ball eleven times to just nine miscues for the Red Flash. The key to the game was St. Francis’ shooting in the second half, dropping in ten layups en route to a 16 for 27 shooting spree, a sizzling 59.3%. Each team threw the ball up 66 times, Buffalo hitting 29 (43.9%), theFrankies 32 (48.5%). LORETTO, PA. — Horne spectacular The loss for the Bulls, their thirteenth in as many road contests, overshadowed the spectular shooting exhibitions by Buffalo’s Otis Horne. Home hit twelve of his eighteen field goal attempts, including seven in a row after his first shot of the game. The junior forward’s 25 points captured game honors, while former Niagara CC All-American Rick Hockenos tallied eighteen to lead St. Francis. The Bulls led by freshman Mike Jones’ ten rebounds, took a slim 39—37 advantage on the boards. Buffalo was hurt particularly by a lack of consistent outside shooting. “Gary [Domzalski], our best shooter, couldn’t hit from outside. Horace [Brawley] couldn’t hit outside. Kenny Pope, who tore Niagara’s zomc apart with his outside shooting, couldn’t hit them,” Case added. Domzalski, shooting 49% on the season, tallied on only two of nine floor attempts, while Brawley hit just six of fifteen, with most ofhis baskets on inside shots. Dickinson disappointing. Particularly disappointing was junior forward Bob Dickinson. Dickinson managed to hit on only three of eight shots and played defense as though his mind was elsewhere.

D.M.RECH PAINT CO. 3209 Bailey Ave Weekend split dims playoffs chances for hockey Btills by Dave Geringer Sports Editor After playing perhaps their finest hockey of the season in an 11—2 victory over Oswego Friday night, the hockey Bulls were defeated Saturday afternoon by the same squad, 5—2. The split left Buffalo’s playoff chances hanging, where a sweep would probably have assured the Bulls a berth in the ECAC’s postseason tournament. Saturday Buffalo was outshot by Oswego, 41-24, after outshooting the Lakers by 49-43 in Friday night’s contest. The Bulls’ top line of John Stranges, Tom Schratz and Mike Klym was held to seven shots on goal in the Lakers victory, while Klym himself had ten shots on goal Friday. “They shut out Johnny’s line, plus Rick’s line wasn’t getting the [Wolstenholme] opportunities today,’’ noted Buffalo coach Ed Wright. “We didn’t shoot the puck enough. We just didn’t get the shots that we got last [Friday] night,” Wright added. While the Bulls’ shooting totals dipped in the second game, Oswego nearly doubled their totals in each succeeding period. The Lakers took six shots at Bull goaltender John Moore in the opening stanza, 12 in the middle period and 23 in the finale, outshooting Buffalo in the third period 23—5. “For a team that’s not going anywhere, they [Oswego] came back and played inspired hockey,” assessed Wright. “They’ve got a lot of pride.” The Lakers checking game “held” the Buffalo forwards in check, with the line of Blair Scharfe, Ron Gabrielli and Jim Busch (brother of Buffalo’s Bill Busch) matched against Stranges’ trio. Oswego’s tactics were aided by the relatively few penalties called by officials Ray Jeanette and Fred Wood. Jeanette and Wood whistled so few infractions in the first two periods that they seemed to be absent. The Bulls broke open a 3-2 contest Friday night with a five-goal second period that gave Buffalo an 8—2 lead after two stanzas. Klym and Mike Dixon scored twice in a span of 1:06 to balloon a 3—2 lead to 5—2, and two goals by Andre Rririer while Rod Burns was sitting out a five-minute major penalty left the Lakers for dead. Playoffs The Bulls must now awaity the verdict of the ECAC Playoffs Tournament Committee in order to determine whether or not they wiH begin playoff action this Saturday night. The committee, which include Boston State’s Gus Sullivan, Merrimack’s Tom Lawler, Amherst’s Ben McCabe and Buffalo’s Harry Fritz, met yesterday in Boston. The tournament will begin this Saturday, with the semi-final and final rounds to take place March 6 and 9. In all cases, the higher seeded squads will have the home ice advantage. Young shines Bulk dominate state tourney ROCHESTER Junior Jim Young captured the Most Valuable wrestler award leading Buffalo’s domination of the New York State Invitational tournament here last weekend, The Bulls crowned five champions and three runnerups, while amassing 162 points to only 128Vi for second place Brockport State. Unfortunately, the tourney was not as strong as expected as several of the better teams failed to show. Young won the MVP award, third such of his career, on the strength of his mild upset of Brockport’s Dave Foxen in the 134 pound final. Foxen had recorded seven straight pins, three in this tournament, before bowing to Young, 7-4. — BUFFALO BAB TRAINING S M c I X 0 L 0 8 H 0 0 L 0 894-6112 F 58 DO AT ST. r New Classes Starting March 4 SEND FOR FREE BROCHURE — — Ucansad by N«w York Star* Education Dapartmant Buffalo’s blond bomber, Ed Hamilton, competing at 167 named the “Middlesex express” for the Bulls, was upset by by one follower of the team, went Brockport’s Paul Bruns.

FOR SALE Streaking Dolphins dunk baby cagers by Paige Miller Spectrum Staff Writer When your opponents shoot better from the floor than you do from the freethrow line, the result is inevitable you’re going to lose. That’s what happened to the — junior varsity basketball Bulls as they were easily defeated by LeMoyne, 120-93 in the game played at Clark Hall Wednesday evening. The win raises the Dolphins’ record to 15-1 and extends their winning streak to six games. The Baby Bulls are 4-12 for the season. LeMoyne shot 61% from the floor, compared to Buffalo’s 57% freethrow shooting, with many easy baskets coming on their fast break. The Baby Bulls aided their opponents by committing 26 turnovers, and time after time, the Dolphins beat Buffalo’s defenders down the court. When they weren’t running, guard Dave Zalewski and forward Jeff MacCubbin had the hot hand from the outside, while center Jim Fletcher was devastating inside. Fletcher shot 12-for-15, while pulling down 15 rebounds and blocking nine shots. Dolphin coach Frank Satalin commented. has good timing, but such he doesn’t commit any fouls.” Season high Despite the overwhelming defeat, Buffalo did achieve some season highs, with only one on the negative side. The 120 points allowed was the most allowed by the Baby Bulls this year. In contrast, both teams achieved their season’s high offensively. The Baby Bulls also recorded their season’s high in field goal percentage (49%) and field goals scored (40). Buffalo received a fine performance from forward John Ruffino, the team’s leading scorer this year. Ruffino, shooting 15-for-22, scored 34 points while becoming the first Bull to reach 30 points in a game this year. In the past, Ruffino had been mainly an outside shooter, but against the Dolphins he scored on many driving shots and tipped in several rebounds. Guard Dave Ridell set a junior varsity record by passing off for twelve assists, breaking a record set earlier in the season by teammate Gene Henderson.

According to an informal survey of student opinion by the SA, most are dissatisfied with Food by Richard Kerman Spectrum Staff Writer “How can you justify making $70,000 while I leave the cafeteria hungry?” That is {he question less-than-satiated contract students should ask Food Service or the Faculty Student Association (FSA) next time they come away from a meal still hungry, suggested Student Association (SA) Student Rights Coordinator Cliff Palefsky and Executive vice-president Dave Saleh. in a statement to contractees, Messrs. Palefsky and Saleh declared: “Food Service Vending division of FSA was budgeted to make upwards of $70,000 this year. For the first time in many years they expect to fulfill their budgetary expectations. Also for the first time in many years, Food Service is not offering any form of seconds, and students are leaving the cafeteria hungry.” Possible lawsuit “This situation is intolerable and must be remedied,” the letter continued. “We will do everything in our power to correct this situation, including nothing short of a possible law suit and certainly to include calling the situation to the attention of the city-wide media.” Mr. Palefsky said that a lawyer has already been contacted, and that in his opinion there were ample grounds for a law suit. “If we do not get satisfaction in a week, we will take legal action,” Mr. Palefsky declared. He thought it possible that legal action might be based on the contract stipulation that Food Service provide “meals.” “We arc providing three meals with all standard nutritional requirements,” asserted director of Food and Vending Services Raymond Becker. “If students leave the cafeteria hungry, it’s because they are not taking everything they can. The menus are not exactly alot,” he explained, but are adequate for a majority of students, he added. The SA statement recommends that students “familiarize themselves with current portions policy and be sure to take as much food as you would like the first time through the line.” Numerous complaints Actions taken this week are part of a Student Association investigation of Food and Vending Services, stemming from numerous complaints of poor service. A number of students have cited instances of having to eat cold food at the North Campus or having to.fill themselves up with bread or jello. 556 dorm residents who were on board in the fall discontinued their board contracts this Service. Mr. Becker believed many students drop board contracts due to the lower costs of cooking for oneself, and cited others who never intended to continue their contracts beyond the one-semester option. In recent weeks, Messrs. Palefsky, Saleh and Becker, along with SA President Jon Dandes and FSA Chief Accountant Leonard Snyder, have met several times to discuss student dissatisfaction with Food Service and related problems. A main contention of the SA statement is a request for the re-establishment of the seconds tables on an experimental basis. “We have requested that Food Service begin a seconds table offering leftovers from previous nights as they have traditionally done in the past, contingent on the students not abusing the policy. They have refused,” the statement said. Theft feared “Food Service,” it continued, “contends that a major reason they do not offer seconds is that they cannot stop the students from remvoing food from the cafeteria to feed their friends who are off board. This problem, they claim, is particularly acute at the Amherst Campus because there is uncontrolled access to the cafeteria area.” The statement warns that students taking food out to non-contract friends “are indirectly taking the food from their and your mouths, in that Food Service will not serve seconds. The major complaint is not with how much food is leaving the area now, but rather with how much food will leave if they do offer seconds.” The emphasis given to Food Service’s inability to prevent students from removing food is “incorrect and misleading,” according to Mr. Snyder. Both Mr. Snyder and Mr. Becker contend that the possiblereinstatement of a seconds table would depend solely on its fiscal feasability. Financial statements for January will be ready this week, and those for February by March 15, according to Mr. Becker. “Our seconds policy is strictly related to budget. If we could see our way clear, seconds could be reinstated as a ‘fringe benefit.’ If the picture is favorable, seconds will be automatically reinstated.” Mr. Becker pointed out that Food Service operations must be consistent with the budgeted net income given by the Board of Directors and administration. He explained that illegal food removal, stolen plates and silverware, and the “vicious spiral” of food costs have kept profits down. fcubwwawt The cost of milk, he said, is up 25% from last year. Mr. Snyder also stated that when policy was formulated this summer, it was decided to “keep contract prices low, and shoot for a high volume of students.” This University has the least expensive meal plans in the State University of New York system, and is the only University center without some type of mandatory board requirement. The price is fixed, and only the menu can be changed to compensate, Mr. Snyder said. “We anticipate a loss this semester that will be offset by last semester’s gains,” he said. Food and Vending Services are budgeted for a projected net annual income of about $79,000. Mr. Snyder maintained: “I’m going to operate on the budget passed this summer. It is critical that we meet our projected net income. We have previously been operating at a loss, but we must be able to grow in order to provide this University with the kind of service it requires.” — “We can only do so much until there are more dollars to work with. What we need are positive, helpful suggestions,” Mr. Becker concluded. for Food Service Prospective law studentsface some hard times Editor's note: This is the first of a two-part series on getting into law school and the admissions process. Part One details the general admission situation and describes life in law school. Part Two takes the potential pre-law student step-by-step through the admissions process. by Jeff Deasy Staff Writer Spectrum If you’re considering law school after graduation and, like most people, lack strong contacts, then you should know exactly what the admissions picture involves First, of course, there is the intense competition to get into law school. Unless an applicant’s grade point average (GPA) is 3.0 or better and his law board scores (LSAT) are at least 600, his chances of being accepted to law school are doubtful. If one applies to one of the nationally prestigious schools (Harvard, Yale, Stanford, etc.), he will need above a 3.5 GPA and board scores in the high 600’s or 700’s, according to Jerome Fink, Pre-law advisor at this University. The difficulty of one’s undergraduate work is not considered when his average is reviewed by an admission committee, he added. For instance, one woman who majored in Pharmacy earned a 3.0 GPA and a 620 on her law boards, and was subsequently rejected by the State University and Georgetown law schools. in law school is very limited. Studying averages between 5 to 8 hours per day, seven days a week. Students can conceivably be required to learn 80 cases per night. A graduate of Boston University law school explained; “Law school can be very degrading . . . one must be fairly self-confident before entering his first year, or he or she will be destroyed.” study of Buffalo The numbers racket Furthermore, high GPA or law boards alone will not be enough to gain entrance to a top law school. For instance, one student who scored a 756 on the law boards but who had only a 3.28 GPA was rejected by Michigan, Chicago, Stanford, Columbia, Pennsylvania, and Harvard. Another Psychology student who achieved a 4.0 average in her major but had an 3.67 GPA overall and a 644 on her law boards was rejected by Harvard, Yale Abrupt change — — and Berkeley. Another factor, to consider is the financial side of attending law school. Most law schools charge between $10 and $25 merely to process an application. Although the average cost of applying runs about $200, it can soar as high as $700. Three years of law education costs between $12,000 and $18,000. A student should not expect to work even part-time during his first year in law school, since he will be studying 40 to 50 hours per week, Dr. Fink said. No social life Law schools are reluctant to give financial aid to first-year law students. Most entering law students are unaware of the rigors of law school life. As one Jerome Fink State University of Buffalo law student explained: “The catalogues do not inform the prospective law student that his social life is likely to dissipate to nothing during the first year.” The Socratic method (or, as law students say, the sarcastic method) of straightforward lecturing is standard teaching style for law schools. Clinical Many feel law school requires more work and sacrifice than a full-time job. After four years of undergraduate study a student may not be entirely prepared to handle the tightly-structured, rigorous law school system. “Nothing can really prepare you for the shock of your first term at law school,” said one student. One graduate of this University, now attending Boston University law school, wrote to Dr. Fink: “If a law student doesn’t graduate in the top 40 per cent of his class, he is not assured of any kind of legal work.’ Furthermore, there is no way of knowing what the job market will be like in a few years. The job market today is flooded with an over-abundance of lawyers, according to various State University of Buffalo law students. If you have any questions concerning law schools and admissions, contact Dr. Fink at 4230 Ridge Lea, Room C-l, or call 831-1672. �Pilot 100 As seenfrom the police side by Joseph P. Esposito Spectrum Staff Writer “See and get to know these men in their work environment” reads the announcement of the Pilot 100 program. The Pilot 100 program is designed to enable University students to ride with Buffalo city police officers in order to Improve relations between the two groups. The Pilot 100 program was developed following the 1970 student disturbances when student-police relations were quite hostile. At that time, Marine Midland Bank-Western was concerned about the strained relationship and some of its officers, James Dillon of the Trust Department and John Hettrick, then President of Marine Midland, felt they could help alleviate the situation. Because the bank was already working in conjunction with the University School of Management on several projects, Marine Midland decided to offer its help in organizing a possible student-police relations program. Marine Midland provided a place at the bank for meetings between the police and representatives from the School of Management, including Richard Brandenburg, currently Dean of the School, and Assistant Dean as several students. Sanford Lottor, as Community participation The idea for Pilot 100 was conceived by James Wenzel, then an undergraduate Management student and now with Marine Midland. The School of Management still oversees the program. The name Pilot 100 came from the fact that it began as a pilot program and was planned to involve 100 students. However, more than 100 students have participated in the program. In 1971-1972, for example, 575 students rode with the police. During the last half of the Fall 1973 semester, over 130 members of the University community took part in Pilot 100. Sue Cohen, a student in the Urban Studies program and currently this school’s sub-coordinator for Pilot 100, said approximately six to eight University students travel with the police each week. Frequently, an entire class will participate at the request of the professor. Participation tends to be lowest at the beginning and end of each semester, and during midterms. Riders screened While Pilot 100 was initiated at this University and has continued here uninterrupted, a number of other schools, including ECC, Buffalo State, Rosary Hill, and Canisius, have also participated. Presently, SUNYAB’s program Operates with the Buffalo city police, though in past years the Amherst Police Department and University Campus Security also participated. Campus Security is now operating a similar program in conjunction with the Student Association’s Student Rights Coordinator. - By calling the Pilot 100 number, the prospective rider and the student coordinator will arrange a precinct, date, and time for the rider. The rider must go to the precinct station house to meet the policemen with whom he or she will be riding. The rider may go out for either a whole shift or part of a shift. Men are allowed to ride with the police 7 days a week, 24 hours a day. Women, who must be accompanied, may ride 7 days a week, but may not ride on the midnight shift. No dungarees Pilot 100 policies prohibit the rider from wearing blue jeans, and also prohibit cameras and recording equipment. Furthermore, students and prisoners are generally not allowed in the same car, and there is a maximum of two students per patrol car. Of course, this may require that two units respond to a call which might otherwise need only one. Has Pilot 100 succeeded in easing tensions between students and police, in replacing hostility with understanding and communication* Those who are involved in the program feel it has been very successful. Dean Lottor believes Pilot 100 “has done a great deal of good” and “has eased a lot of tensions,” especially in the crucial first year of its existence. Mr. Eagan sees Pilot 100 as having “given the police good public relations.” As Lottor says, “The police and students found each other were humans.” Though some of the initial skepticism remains, there has been great cooperation between students and police. For example, University students have helped police who are taking courses here. Ms. Cohen related an incident during one Pilot 100 ride in which the student riders virtually saved an officer’s life by radioing in for assistance. Mixed reaction The reaction of student riders has been varied, but generally students are quite pleased and many go on repeat trips. The reaction of the police officers is likewise mixed. Some are stand-offish, still refer to the 1970 riots, and feel that driving students in Pilot 100 is not part of their duty. Many officers, though, are very pleased with the program and are quite willing to have student riders. What is the future of Pilot 100" According to Dean Lottor, Buffalo Police Commissioner Thomas Blair, active from the beginning in Pilot 100 and instrumental in its creation, is very enthusiastic about the program and has been quite cooperative with the school coordinators. Dean Lottor feels that it “has served its purpose,” but that it should continue if there is interest among students and police. Eagan feels the program may be undergoing a revitalization, as evidenced by the fact that seniors in the crinimal law course at the University Law School are encouraged to participate in Pilot 100 to get a first hand view of law enforcement. IRC is restructured for Ellicott opening student activities in the new Ellicott Complex. The task force’s suggestion for a stricter admission policy to IRC-sponsored events was also advocated. Upon entrance to IRC non-member events, dorm-students and off-campus residents will be charged a separate fee. Thus, in order to take advantage of free admission to IRC activities, dorm students must join IRC. consists of the Governors and Ellicott Area Council presidents, the Housing office area ca-o'rdinators, the Student-Association North Campus co-ordinator, the Norton Union activities board, one representative from each of the Colleges, and other personnel. The IRC Executive Committee will consist of four elected officiers: President, Vice President for Activities Planning, Executive Vice President, and Treasurer. Included among the duties of the Executive Vice President will be the chairing of the IRCB Board. Business policy will therefore be set by elected representatives, but management duties will still be management carried out by students. To firmly establish IRC and organize activities, the IRC president will be required to remain in Buffalo during the summer months. Three appointed area “co-ordinators” will serve as organizers during the summer and the firs? few weeks in the fall before an Area Council has been elected. In September, IRC officers and representatives will staff three full-time IRC offices. Tastier policy Balanced interests by Dene Bergman Spectrum Staff Writer Basic recommendations for the of the Inter-Residence Council (IRC) and IRC Businesses, Inc. (IRCB) were approved last week. These recommendations were embodied within the preliminary reports of the IRC and IRCB evaluation and expansion task forces, which had been meeting for two weeks and gleaning “input" from faculty, students, and administrators. Specifically, IRC voted to ask President Ketter to give the University Bursar permission to collect IRC’s $20 membership fee. This would allow President Ketter restructuring to> actively support vitally-needed Additionally, report concerning Food was given by Cliff Palefsky, chairman of the task force Food Service Committee. To increase sudent “input” into one policy, Food Service executive committee member will represent the dorm students on the Faculty-Student Association (FSA). Lists of complaints and possible suggestions for improvement were related to FSA at its meeting last Wednesday. Revision of IRC structure was confirmed. Area Councils will replace individual House Councils, covering three areas for activities A planning: the Main will set corporate guidelines and oversee the IRCB Comptroller, the North and South Campus Managers, and staff. Throughout the meeting, the operations of IRC from other was stressed. -Greater student interest and active participation is vitally needed to expand IRC into a service and activities organization for dorm students on three autonomy campus Campus dorms. Governors Residence, and the Ellicott Complex. Each Area Council will contain its own executive board and will initiate its own activities. The number of representitives from each Area Council to the IRC Council will be proportional to the number of dorm-students in each of the specific areas. campuses.

Jeff Linder Spectrum recommended the use of written answers rather than Staff Writer strictly computer scanning questionnaires, so students can be more specific in their criticism. Dr. McConnell would like to see students making overall judgments about their education, by articulating reasons “why a professor is not performing well enough.” By writing their criticisms in longhand, students can make specific suggestions for improvement. Dr. McConnell explained. Further questions being pondered by Dr. McConnell are: “Do students really know what good education is? Do they take these questions seriously? What is effective At this point in the semester, every faculty member should have received his “gray folder” from the Office of Teaching Effectiveness. The folder contains the results of the Analysis of Courses and Teaching survey (ACT), which students filled out at the end of last semester. The ACT uses a single sheet of “succinct” questions, judge printed on computer scannhfg paper. Students on a scale demanding instructor is or their whether lenient s' from one to ten. student evaluation program In 1971, when went into effect, the Teaching Effectiveness Survey (TES), as it was called, consisted Of a four-page questionaire. Unlike the TES, the ACT surveys enable individual professors to compare their class’s results with a University-wide calibrated mean score. Using the surveys, the professor can compare his course to similar courses in clearly-delineated categories. The categories include class of class-seminar, lecture, level, enrollment, laboratory. Thus, under the new recitation or discussion, ACT format, a professor with a lecture of 100 will not be comparing his class to a seminar of ten. teaching?” th«/first Written comments There are weaknesses in a written questionnaire, Dr. Francis conceded. He felt it was possible to write something on the back of the computer sheet or to have a tear-off portion of the form, but this would be costly, he explained. It would also be difficult to uniformly compare performance with written comments, Dr. Francis noted. He suggested scoring positive and negative comments if it could be determined which comments were positive or negative. Dr. Francis also speculated that written questions might be more workable in graduate division courses tor Chance to improve If it is obvious from the results that the professor is not getting through to his students, he has the opportunity to improve, explained Bruce Francis, director of the Survey Research Center. For example, if a professor finds that a large percentage of his class thinks his leniency has reduced learning, he may adjust his approach in the classroom. “Resources” for improving teaching exist but remain underdeveloped, explained Allen Kuntz, chairman of the Task Force on Teaching Effectiveness. He is exploring the possibility of a “multi-media teaching-for-professors . project.” Also foreseen is a seminar program led by faculty presently recognized for ‘their teaching ability, namely professors who have earned distinguished Teaching Professorships and State University Chancellor’s Awards seminars. Written evaluations have proved effective at other universities. The Harvard Crimson publishes a “Confidential Guide to Courses and Teachers” which sells for $ 1. The “Confy Guide,” explained Jeff Leonard of The Crimson, has a very large circulation among both students and teachers. The questions for the guide are written and open-ended. A student from the department of the critiqued course reviews the written comments and edits them into a few paragraphs for publication in the guide. Questioned whether students take the evaluation of teachers seriously, Alan Fenster of the Office of Student Testing and Research said alumni evaluations of former professors correlated highly with those of students presently taking the courses. • While the goals of ACT are “good,” Dr. McConnell s sub-committee is carefully evaluating the project by investigating important questions about the nature of ACT. Attempting to evaluate ACT’s measuring device, Dr. McConnell has been asking: “What do the questions do and where do they lead? Should the present questioning ... t Plant Clinic or Organizations* for I have been modified by his project. In 1971 the Faculty-Senate mandated a two-year trial period for the TES. However, that form was too extensive and the interval between completion of the questionnaires and distribution of the results was too long, Mr Fenster explained. Problems minimized Mainly becuase of staff experience and the Task Force on Teaclfing Effectiveness, these problems have been minimized. The revised ACT format is not as lengthy as the TES and the results are more “succinct” and coordinated. Many TES questions have been rewritten so that they are relevant to a greater number of departments, said Mr. Fenster. ACT is continuing to grow and develop. Dr. Francis noted that, other state schools have shown interest in ACT, including Gencsco, Brockport, Frcdonia, and Alfred. The Teaching incentives project will inevitably receive changes after Dr. The ACT hopes to encourage higher-quality teaching outstanding McConnell’s sub-committee report to the Faculty-Senate who receive to professors by offering awards in mid-March, but the changes hopefully will reinforce evaluations. Dr. McConnell mentioned possible incentives legitimacy and usefulness.

The following are excerpts from that interview which deal with the Colleges more excerpts will be published in future issues. residential situation. The question was not should we go in Direction A or should we go in Direction B, but in what direction can we go just to stay alive? They became a free-flow, interdisciplinary program format not by design, but by default. - - The Spectrum: Why were the Colleges originally created? Dr. Ketter: There needed to be developed within the University a counterpoise to the strong departmental framework this University had evolved in in fact, that education in general had developed over the country. There needed to be developed something where groups of faculty members and students could get together and study problem situations with a whole series of types of things. We (originally) had a College ofWar and Peace, College of Environmental Design I think one was called Social Problem-Solving; we gave them a whole host of names. They should focus on a problem; they should be interdisciplinary in character; they should probably have both a residential and an academic component. The initial idea was that about 40% of those associated with the Colleges would be in residence and 60% would be commuters. But a key feature was that everybody in a College should have a piece of physical turf that he could call his own. Whether it be a bed, whether it be a locker, whether it be a pad, whether it be anything: Physically, there would be something there that you could say, This is mine and 1 know I can count on it.’ The Colleges at that time were tied lock, stock and barrel to a Master. The idea of a Master was very critical: You would not form a College unless you had a Master who was committed to the idea. They (the Masters) were all faculty members at that time; I don’t thinjc the question even came up. It was presumed; (t was never really discussed. The Stern Prospectus (which created the Colleges) was not the original prospectus on the floor of the Senate, but was. a counter-proposal to one that was on the floor. The Spectrum: What about faculty involvement in the Colleges? Dr. Ketter: It was assumed that faculty abolish them — even though they’d never approved them. The Spectrum: Where is the incentive if faculty feel any effort in the Colleges will not be recognized and will probably only hurt their chances for promotion? Dr. Ketter: It’s a real fear on the part of faculty members, and as jobs get tight, it becomes an even greater fear. There has to The Spectrum: Will the new Colleges that emerge from the Reichert Prospectus be substantially different from those that now exist? Dr. Ketter: There will be a honeymoon period for those that get through, where there will be less scrutiny for awhile. They will be given the opportunity I’m just I would guessing now, it’s speculation suspect there’s going to be a tendency on the part of the faculty to sit back and say: Well, let’s give them a chance. And that chance, within the University framework, usually means about a two-year period when people will say: Let’s pull back and give them a chance and see whether they can do something. ... — — - The Spectrum: What do you see as the flaws in the Colleges, where they have differed from what you thought they might be? Dr. Ketter: We originally started out with the idea that every student in the University, for one reason or another, would wish to be associated with a College in some fashion. And I think that is a basic flaw I don’t think that particular type of experience is suitable for all students. As we started planning, we originally thought about having 30 Colleges, in fact we planned physically 30 separate Colleges for the Amherst Campus. Then we started to look at the interest being displayed (and We thought) maybe if we had 12 or 15, that could be the maximum number we could really sustain. The residential and intellectual experience need not be restricted to book-learning; it could just as well be cultural. We did at one time say a major College or a major series of Colleges might identify with a cultural type of format, as well as an intellectual format, 1 don’t wish to separate the two. One could very well find the performing arts (as a College)... a residential performing arts-type situation that would be really viable. The Spectrum: And then the controversy starts all over again? Dr. Ketter; Yes. Well, no, there could be at that stage (those who) say, hey, this really made sense, now let’s take off all restrictions. I don’t see that the Colleges and in this 1 probably differ from some -1 do not see the Colleges, as Reichert sees them, stopping at this point and a new thing starting. I do not see that. What I see is that there was a particular proposal for something here in 1966, we went through a particular trial period. We did a certain number of things which made sense and a certain number of things which did not make sense. We are now at the next stage of evolution that two years from now will evolve into something different it’s a continuous evolution. But the University must have a counterpoise to the strong push that departments give you. — — - major — The Spectrum: Were the Colleges an attempt to bring residential students together with commuting students? Dr. Ketter: Yes. And an attempt to bring an environment other than the classroom into the learning situation. We put a lot of emphasis on the residential situations, but they (the Colleges) changed completely because there was no they did exist were getting on the close edge ofilosing a fair amount of support from the faculty. Any time you get that, the faculty, without exception, move too far in the other direction. And there will then be a swing back. It does not surprise me to see the (Reichert) document come forward, and it really doesn’t bother me, because these things are tempered immediately once they get into operation.' would be significantly involved in the Colleges. That was presumed from the outset, and 1 remember in picking people to become Masters, one of the conditions (former University President Martin) Meyerson specified was that they had to have been Masters or the equivalent at some other institution prior to coming here. He did not want any novice getting into this. be provided the necessity for departments to take into account this kind of work (in the Colleges). And if departments won’t take it into account, there has to be an option for the information to get in at the next higher level, the provostial level. That’s what we’re working on now; to try to force mechanisms whereby a person’s experience will in fact come forward and be weighed. The Spectrum: Faculty involvement in the Colleges has significantly declined since then. What are the reasons for this? The Spectrum: Was any thought ever given to released time or merit raises for faculty who taught in the Colleges? Dr. Ketter: You have to understand that at the time the Colleges were formed, the Dr. Ketter: There are a combination of reasons. One and the one that faculty most often look at when they look forward to promotion, tenure and so forth is that there has not evolved within the University a conscious method whereby the efforts an individual puts forth in the Colleges can be brought to bear on the examination within a department for promotion. — — The Colleges, right from the outset, were defined to be non-degree-granting entities and never received approval from anyone in State University or Department of Education to grant credit. The Colleges have never been blessed by the Board of Trustees; and in fact, in 1970 there was almost an action by the Board of Trustees on recommendation by the Chancellor to The Spectrum: The Reichert Prospectus calls on the Administration to make a financial commitment to the Colleges. Is your Administration willing to make that commitment? Dr. Ketter: The Colleges are no different than departments. I have to see exactly the same thing for departments: a plan for the next 3, 4, 5 years that says: This is what we need, and as we get resources, we will start to put them in a very conscious fashion. The Spectrum: Do you see the Colleges getting more money in the next few years than they have in the past few years? Dr. Ketter: Yes. The Spectrum: Do you see released time in the Colleges being worked out? Dr. Ketter; I see that happening. for faculty teaching The Spectrum: It seems unconventional courses constantly come under attack for their "legitimacy." Are these University was in the greatest stage of attacks justified? Dr. Kettcr: In some areas, they’re expansion you could imagine. There were 270-some faculty added in one year. (With absolutely justified. The real problem with this many faculty) you don’t have to ask the Colleges and experimental education is the question, ‘Do 1 need released time?’ that to be valid, ypu have to define: What The real question was, Can you find things is the experiment you wish to carry out? for people to do when you’re adding that And after you get through, you have to many at one time? The question was every assess: Was it a success? Was it not a faculty member finding his niche, and success? What did you learn from it? To performing in his niche. Now things are pick a stupid example, a girl once came in to me and said, I want 16 credit hours of quite different. independent study this semester. In what? The Spectrum: Do you think there can Well, I’m pregnant, and that’s a learning be a basic balance between experience. And there is no question, that experimentation and academic legitimacy, is a learning experience. You learn and if so, does the Reichert Prospectus go something new every day. Yet it’s not too far toward legitimacy? necessarily an appropriate thing for which Dr. Ketter: 1 would say the Colleges as you should give credit in a University. College Friday, 22 February 1974 The Spectrum Page five . . �JL Small portions, large profits It is typical of Food Serivce's performance over the years that Student Association is now considering suing it for failing in its contractual obligation to provide "meals." The low quality of dorm food its blandness and lack of variety, not to mention has driven thousands of small portions dorm students from cafeteria fare to the hassles of a hot plate and TV dinners in a crowded dorm lounge. The situation is not new. In 1971, 300 first-semester board students dropped their contracts by the second semester. This year, 556 dissatisfied eaters failed to renew their contracts for the spring term. This cannot merely represent a group of picky eaters; the consistently large number of unsatisfied customers points the finger directly at Food Service. No ordinary organization could perform so poorly and stay in business. Most intolerable, however, is Food Service's abolition of the popular seconds table, which was long a saving grace for those still hungry after disposing of the feeble main portion. As the seconds table served previous days' leftovers, its cost was marginal. A little imagination can surely solve the problem of board students sneaking seconds to their friends. But to blame the lack of seconds on when Food Service-Vending its budget is both expects a $78,000 profit this year insulting and cruelly unfair to the students who depend on them for meals. SA Student Rights coordinator Cliff Palefsky and vice-president Dave Saleh are to be commended for their much-needed investigation into Food Service's shortcomings. Food Service is part of the Faculty-Student Association (FSA) which, despite its name, is controlled by the Administration; this may in part explain its repeated insensitivity to student needs and lip-service dismissal of legitimate complaints. Years of student complaints, cancelled contracts and even boycotts have failed to visibly improve the quality of Food Service. FSA must direct Food Service to accept a smaller profit. If Food Service were to suffer the hardship of a $68,000 profit instead of $78,000, they might begin to meet their responsibility of providing students with enough to eat. Food Service, for its part, must reinstate the seconds table, beef up the size of the main portions, and become more responive to student complaints. Unless these steps are immediately taken, SA should take including a lawsuit if necessary firm action to satisfy the board contract students who are now leaving the cafeteria hungry. — - — — — — relations with President Ketter, SA needs a student spokesman who will more often confront the Administration on important issues. On academics, Mr. Dandes was sucked in by the Reichert Prospectus, and failed to take strong stands on die four-course load. Colleges, grading, etc. He allowed a free hand to his Academic Affairs coordinator. Bob Kole an incompetent, inefficient excuse for a coordinator who blindly supported the Reichert Prospectus, missed many important meetings and took regressive stands on the Colleges, plus-minus grading and other academic issues. Mr. Kole failed to represent students, often advocating his personal opinion instead of those of the student body. Voters should be looking for strong academic leadership from candidates who will actively gauge student priorities and fight for them. Sub-Board vice-pr'esident Jennifer Washburn also did students a disservice by playing bureaucratic power games and meddling in the internal affairs of Sub-Board's various organizations. Treasurer Kenny Unker, however, succeeded in eliminating any deficit from the SA books for the first time in years, and was able to develop an unprecendented working relationship with minority groups. Paul Kade was invisible at National Affairs; Judy Kravitz did an excellent job of running orientation and activities; and David Sancho devoted his energies to solving the problems of foreign students. Vice-president Dave Saleh instituted election reforms and successfully fought to revamp orientation, but was hampered all year by leading an extremely ineffective Student Assembly. Student Rights coordinator Cliff Palefsky was the most activist of the lot, with his investigations into the Bookstore and Food Service, development of good relations with Campus Security, and institution of the bike lot, undergraduate grievance procedure and — Student-Wide Judiciary. While the criteria for each SA position is different, the candidates should show a willingness to deal aggressively with the Administration, which after all holds all the power on this campus and often threatens to reduce student government to insignificance. Revamping the impotent Student Assembly into a solid legislative body should be a priority, as should an awareness of housing problems, financial aid snafus, community and state issues which affect students, and more activities for the Amherst Campus. In the budget are, voters should look for a $25,000 commitment to enable WNYPIRG to become a viable consumer organization by joining its statewide parent group, NYPIRG. Generous budget allocations should be pledged to CAC, the struggling UB Day Care Center, and intramurals, recreational and women's sports.

For a university to eliminate the physical education requirement is to turn its back upon the scientific evidence which has accumulated in the past 25 years concerning the importance of exercise to the health and well-being of our people. Likewise, it ignores the importance for university students now and in the future to be prepared to use their leisure in constructive and wholesome ways. It is for these reasons that the AMA has so vigorously supported physical education requirements in colleges and univerisities. The evidence for the need is so overwhelming that SUNY should be moving, as serveral prestigious univeristies have, in the direction of a more extensive requirement rather than eliminating existing physical education requirements. In the final analysis, SUNY has a heavy stake in the quality of it physical education program. Everything that our colleges and univeritics hope to accomplish with students is related to their health and vitality. Students who graduate from our educational institution will need bodies worthy of their minds if they are to assume the difficult and important tasks that will increase their usefulness to mankind. Consequently, the school that fails to provide physical education is jeopardizing all of its aims and aspirations. It is inconsistent and illogical to put much effort and resources into preparing fine scientists, doctors, engineers, lawyers, musicians, poets, philosophers, journalists, businessmen, and the like who cannot achieve to their full potential because they lack the strength, stamina, health and vitality to do so. The noblest thoughts in the minds of men are but wishful thinking in a body physically unable to put the thoughts in action. Students suffering from obesity, debilitating weakness and other conditions that can be improved via good health practices, including exercise, would be “lost” to the physical education department if there were no mechanism for enrolling them in the program Students who are physcially atypical, whose conditions can be improved through activities, and students who are pathetically low in motor ability (skills) have the most to gain from a varied program of activities that meets individual needs. We want the opportunity to serve these students and will be able to do so in much better fashion with new facilities programmed for Amherst. Those who highly recommend life-time sports in the physical education program should examine the present physical education activities offering. While needing improvement in terms of special courses for the handicapped, our program rates well at the top in the life-time sports area, and in general fitness activities. We appreciate the good work The Spectrum is doing in objectively ventilating the several views concerning matters of interest on this campus. Harry Fritz, Dean School of Health Education �Save me a seat \ To the Editor: This letter is in regards to the lecture “Who Killed JFK” sponsored by SA on Wed. Feb. 13 in • Diefendorf 147. My roommate and I waited patiently in line for hours before the lecture started. By 9:00 an angry mob had formed in the lobby of Diefendorf.

Anyone who was anyone was either sitting there being cool or had a friend sitting there being cool saving them a seat. Possibily SA had handed out secret pass words to the “in” crowd or maybe the good faiy helped them transcend the fuming mob in the vestibule.

I am paying $67 per year, to be told that I have a low mentality, because I, along with several thousand others, want my money spent on films and music.

The Spectrum Student Periodical, Inc Republication of any matter herein without the express consent of the Editor-in-Chief is strictly forbidden. Editorial policy is’determined by the Editor in-Chief On Friday, February 15, 1974, The Spectrum published the following; “An effort to decide whether or not Larry Williams should be allocated $1000 for court fees was again delayed until February 26. Mr. Williams was arrested by Campus j Security last October on charges of harrassment and resisting arrest.” The rest of the article details the other demands of the BSU and the Student Assembly’s subsequent endorsement. The premiere question has not yet been answered: Why is the Assembly considering paying the court charges of a student? Was he representing the University in this incident? Is he a special case, unique from other students who have to pay their own legal fees? Despite an assertion from one of the Assembly members that the allocation would be illegal due to “mandatory student activities fee guidelines,” the in its usual display of backbone and Assembly courage has seen fit to postpone a decision that might bring an unfavorable reaction from a minority group. Mr. Williams was acquitted of the charges in that case and demanded that the administration pay for his court costs. Why SI000? Did the total cost of the legal fees reach exactly $1000? Or was it less? If it was more than $1000, why not have the students pay the entire bill? After $1000 or so, what the hell does a couple of hundred dollars represent? While the headlines in The Spectrum detail the financial plight of the various student organizations like UUAB, PIRG, and other organizations dedicated to the general interest, Mr. Williams wants us to pay for his legal costs. Why only Mr. Williams? If we are going to begin to pay legal costs, then let’s pay all student legal fees. Mr. Williams feels that we should pay his legal fees because he was innocent and he was a victim of a conspiracy. Oh well, I don’t remember Student Association paying the legal fees for all of the students that got busted during the cgmpus riots of the sixties. They also were victims of the same system of justice that supposedly is out to get Mr. Williams. The blame for this mess is not the fault of BSU or Mr. Williams; they feel that, justifiably or not, the Student Assembly should pay his legal fees. The real blame belongs upon the indecisive, spineless and wishy-washy students that supposedly represent us in our farce of a student government. These students have been stringing Mr. Williams and BSU along, by even considering that the Student Assembly has the power to - The Spectrum Friday, PROM NOW OOiP CLURM* — one of many, randomly chosen, who were surveyed concerning how I -want my mandatory fee money spent. Apparently, the results of that survey were not to UUAB’s liking. If UUAB’s staff members do not like the direction their employers, (we, the suckers who foot the bill), give them, I suggest that they “relieve their frustrations” by quitting, and allowing someone who is willing to program according to student priorities have a chance. Steve Cohen ooking Glass Maureen Hurley (actress in Flinty Vol. 24, No. 57 .YIRS ******* Fee-paying sucker Carol Sklar Skip Nabinger FROM OWN YOUR allocate the funds to Mr. Williams. According to Mr. Kenneth Unker, treasurer for the Student Association, in a letter written to The Spectrum concerning PIRG on February 13, 1974, “Once S.A. budgeted its funds last May, it’s absolutely financially impossible to alter those allocations.” Therefore we assume that it would be impossible, as Mr. Unker has stated, to reallocate $1000 for Mr. Williams’ legal fees. Let us assume, however, that the Student Assembly agrees to fund Mr. Williams’ legal fees. This is not as far-fetched as it might sound, for stranger occurances have taken place in the august halls of the Student Assembly meetings. If the Assembly docs agree to give Mr. Williams the $1000, then it will have to consider other requests from students. It is only fair that if you pay the legal costs of One student then all students are entitled to the same privilege. Basically the Student Assembly could become a funding agency for legal fees; deciding which students and cases it would fund, and basing its decision upon the ambunt of pressure and threats that each special interest group would apply. Of course, now that this column has suggested that it is due to minority group pressure that Mr. Williams might receive $1000 for personal legal fees, and that the Student Assembly, contrary to its legal guidelines, is considering the proposal, this columnist will be branded a racist. Quite the opposite. There is no reason, no precedent, no compelling reason why the students of this University have to pay the personal legal fees of ANY student, black or white. Any personal legal fee is the sole property and responsibility of the defendant, and not of the community to which he belongs. While general student activities have been curtailed due to budgetary restrictions, our Assembly is proposing to illegally allocate money that is desparately needed by the general student public. Which club or clubs will feel the effect of a cutback when previously appropriated monies are withdrawn and given to Mr. Williams? If Mr. Williams and BSU wish to have other people pay his legal fees, then they should do what other students have done and create a defense fund to which people could voluntarily contribute. It has been done before and can be done again. On February 26, the Student Assembly will again decide whether or not to give Mr. Williams $1000. If you care where your money goes, than get off your ass and get down to the meeting and tell your representative what you think of that proposal. If not, oh well, what is a $1000 among friends?

Sunday evening at 8 p.m., Mr. Telushkin will recount his experiences with Soviet Jewry during that period. Mr. Telushkin first became aware of the war through the Siberian Jewish Underground. “From Novosibersk to Moscow, wherever [we) traveled, Jews huddled around their radios for the latest news from unjammed Voice of America,” he reported in The Times of Israel. Concern and harassment He said the Soviet Jews were far more concerned for Israel than for themselves, although the latest conflicts resulted in stricter harassment and imprisonment of many of these people. Mr. Telushkin wrote; “It is perhaps still too early to assess the effects of the October War on Soviet Jews. Some of the people we met were afraid the results of the war might parallel those that followed the Six-Day War a discontinuation of emigration for a year and a half. That has not - happened. Evidently, the Soviet hatred of Israel is overridden by the government’s calculation that the Russian Jews are a poison that must be purged at all costs from the Soviet body politic.” Torah study Tomorrow morning services will begin at 10 a.m. After the Sunday’s program is Kiddush luncheon, Mr. Telushkin will present a lecture on “A co-sponsored by the Niagara Modern Introduction to the Study Frontier Council on Soviet Jewry of Torah.” Saturday evening, the and the Hillel Foundation.

The Spectrum Friday, 22 February 1974 . ; Eyeing an increased budget of PIRG’s across the state would be borne in the first year, on a trial basis by NYPIRG, Stating that we “can’t keep piddling around anymore,” Mr. Ross described the various ways in which funding could be obtained if another SA allocation is not approved the following year. The most ideal way would be to have the additional cost included in a student’s bill and leave him the optipn of not paying it. However, this method is least likely to be approved. Another method would be to increase the flat appropriation from year to year, reflecting the students’ desire to maintain or improve the existing structure of WNYP1RG. The Western New York Public Interest Research Group (WNYPIRG) has been informally assured of a $25,000 appropriation for the upcoming academic year by the SA Finance Committee. Donald Ross, director of the parent New York Public Interest Research Group, spelled out exactly the conditions upon which the Buffalo group can join NYPIRG. Mr. Ross, apparently impatient with the slow-moving nature of the Student Association, said: “It’s time for a dynamite tactic; either you get it going or let it die naturally.” Mr. Ross emphasized that the group cannot continue on “$500 of $800 budgets... we just can’t function on that kind of money.” WNYPIRG can join NYPIRG on a one-year trial basis if SA will approve a $25,000 allocation. WNYPIRG was allocated only $2000 this year. The members of the SA finance committee in attendance all agreed on the need for available WNYPIRG on this campus. Several members questioned Mr. Ross as to what other campuses were - - doing to organize a P1RG. Mr. Ross said; ‘They re all waiting for this place to move.” Apparently, once this University joins NYPIRG, other schools in Western New York will organize to join NYPIRG as well. Full-time attorney At the present time, WNYP1RG does not have a vote in state-wide NYPIRG. With the approval of the $25,000 allocation, it will gain that vote. The $25,000 allocation will remain entirely in Buffalo, Mr. Ross explained. It would be used to hire two full-time staff members, at least one of whom will be an attorney. Additional money would be used to hire a part-time work study student for office work. The balance would be used for office supplies and costs. The other costs necessary to build a network M fticccvcrt 'fy&tvt “Place - J • • ‘Sy damfruten it One year trial Mr. Ross also explained that SA could, after one year, not allocate any additional funds to PIRG. None of the finance committee participants apparently felt this was likely to occur. Once the allocation is approved, Mr. Ross said it was likely that stalling could be completed within a few months. FIRG is seeking people who will totally immerse themselves in the work, and will be full-time employees, adding a sense of continuity to the changing students who volunteer their services. Additionally, WNYPIRG can hire summer interns for specific projects. ‘There would be,” Mr. Ross maintained, “a steady systematic flow of completed projects rolling off every two to four weeks. These would not be just price surveys but highly visible and important projects.” He added that the steady flow of high quality projects would build WNYPIRG’s name and increase its recognition in the community. The meeting closed with the Finance Committee members pledging their support, provided Mr. Ross provides them with a line-by-line budget for the next year by March 15.

Delaware St. Littleton, Colo. 80120 �by Randi Schnur Assistant Arts Editor The Exorcist is not just a movie. It is an a horrifying and horrible one, disgusting, nauseating, sickening, and SICK. It is literally painful to watch, and it can really mess up your mind if you let it. (Fourteen people in Pittsburgh who had never been noticeably strange before, or so the story goes, suddenly required psychiatric care after being subjected to this atrocity.) All the people connected with it should be shot (although it would have been wiser to have done away wjth them before distribution began). And Mrs. Eflair, mother of cute little Linda who played the owner of the unfortunate body possessed by Satan, should be drawn and quartered. Okay now, I admit that those were my first impressions, taken down during the first waves of outrage and revulsion that kept me awake until sunrise after I saw what is likely to become the biggest money-maker in film history. Since then I've calmed down quite a bit, and toned down my criticisms accordingly. The executions would be pointless anyway; experience — most people apparently want to be shocked, they love the terror (despite, or perhaps because of, the superficiality) that May assn sm the raunchiest horror films arouse. Rotten to the core However, at its core The Exorcist is still a bad movie; it is virtually plotless and has some really horrendous acting. It is based entirely on one gimmick and the special effects (over ten million dollars' worth) required to sustain it. But what a gimmickll WILLIAM PETER BLATTV'S THE EXORCIST William Peter Blatty's best-selling novel was the kind of book that you hate to read, but can't put down. For those few who have managed to resist it altogether, the meager story line concerns twelve-year-old Regan MacNeil, a perfectly normal little girl who suddenly and inexplicably begins going into trances, convulsing, and shouting obscenities. Her movie-star mother sends her to every neurologist and psychiatrist she can find, while Regan gets stranger and stranger. Finally, the distraught mother calls in Father Damien Karras, a young Jesuit "psychiatric counselor" who had just told a fellow priest that he was losing his faith. it takes some doing, but Regan's demon manages to convince Karras of its existence and of the need for the exorcism ceremony. This has been the spirit's plan all along, it seems Satan has taken over the body of the "faithless" little girl in order to get closer to Karras, who is still too good a Catholic to be inhabited — directly. Beating the devil Expert exorcist Lancaster Merrin is call in on the case as well, but the girl gets progressively worse until Karras decides that he, like the rest of us, has had enough. "Take me!" he screams, and is taken but he repents at the crucial moment, thus having the last word and presumably banishing Satan, at least for the time being. Regan comes out of it all with a few scratches and bruises, but no memories. The special effects the tricks the demon performs in the scheme to capture Damien Karras are incredible. Director William Friedkin, best remembered for the chase scene he staged two years ago in The French Connection, has here surpassed himself and beaten all past masters of the macabre at the same time. Believe me, no one can nauseate you like the team of Blatty and Friedkin. Furniture, blood, and the demon's slimy green vomit fly in all directions. Open wounds appear on Regan's body as she levitates to the ceiling; her eyes glow green in her bloody, pus-encrusted face, and her head turns 360 degrees without twice. In what must falling off her neck be the most excruciatingly tasteless sequence most people will ever see, she masturbates with a long silver crucifix and then pushes her mother's face between her bloody thighs. Immediately afterwards, the terrified woman is nearly killed when a huge wooden dresser skitters across the floor toward her and topples over inches from the corner in which she cowers. — — — — As millions scream Almost as amazing as the events on the screen are the hordes who wait outside to see them. The crowd that showed up for the film’s premiere performance in Buffalo last Tuesday at midnight packed the lobby of the Holiday I and II theatres so tightly that no one but those left outside could move at all for nearly an hour. Once everyone was seated and the overflow had moved inside, the lobby remained just as crowded. The shouts and screams of the indignant people who were not allowed to pay three and a half dollars for the dubious privilege of watching Regan throw up could be heard halfway through the movie. Channel 7 sent a reporter to record the reactions of the lucky hundreds who made it into the theatre; they were almost unanimously revolted. But by the time The Exorcist has closed all over the country, huge numbers of their friends will have insisted on seeing it anyway. Why?? —continued on page 13— �'Black Hand Side' s ' / Roses in the ghetto by Tom Lansing Spectrum Arts Staff Remember Amos and Andy? Of course not but they were supposedly great favorites on the radio and early television. Whitey got a kick out of these two incompetent blacks, or so it is told. Though they performed on radio, they were a good example of how the black man was portrayed in films of the 1930's and 40's. For example, how about the stupid train porters and cooks in The Three Stooges, and who can forget those two incredibly degrading segments of "Uncle Tomming" in the Marx Brothers' A Day at the Races and At the by Jay Boyar Spectrum Arts Editor I'll talk about Serpico in a minute. Hang on. Recently, in response to rhy generally unfavorable review of Papillon, a letter appeared in The Spectrum. In part, it said, "Mr. Boyer (sic) speaks of this movie as Frank Schaffner's extravaganza, filled with sensationalist 'baddies' But what The Spectrum's Arts Editor fails miserably to mention is that Papillon's story is true." The gist of this correspondent's argument seems to be that if a story actually takes place in feal life, then its contents can not be attacked on the grounds that they are used in a calculating and pompously unartistic way by the director. Of course, this is hogwash. Just because the real Papillon visited a leper colony, that doesn't mean it would necessarily make a good subject for a film episode, or that (if it is a good subject) Circus? In came the racial riots of the 60's, along with the demand for telling it like it is by blacks everywhere, and it was hush-hush on Uncle Tom's appearance. Instead of Amos and Andy we got Sanford andSon. Sidney Poitier did his thing in cinema as the good black man, Richard Roundtree started a following as the bad, but cool dude. And while all of this was going on, there were no dumb "Yes'm" 's. Well, the drive for civil rights will be pleased that blocks have reached some semblance of equality in the film industry. This is marked with therelease of the film Five on the Black Hand Side, which shows that the curse has been lifted, and it is once again permissible to have a black fool... but, of course, done in Afro-American style. ... Out of the race Charlie L. Russel has adapted his off-Broadway play, which deals with the problems of a black middle-class family, for the screen. Mind you, the major problem here is only distantly related to any racial crises. The film could be dubbed Bringing Up Father, or the Enlightenment of Mr. Brooks. Leonard Jackson plays the role of John Henry Brooks, a self-made barbershop owner, who wants only the same good fortune for his three maturing kids: Gail, Gideon, and Booker T. However, the core of the plot involves the relationship between John Henry and his wife Gladys (Clarice Taylor), Who, as the action unveils itself, are speaking to each other only on a strict Mr. And Mrs. basis. What evolves is not much more than a television situation comedy. Oh, it's entertaining (maybe it's not a sit com after all), but considering its attempt to depict the culture and social conflicts woven into a middle-class black family, the film leaves one rather disappointed by falling short of its potential. we are treated to scenes of her and her corps adorned in army uniforms, equipped with binoculars, strategy maps, and picket signs. It's all in fun, but the sudden switch leads one to start comparing the film's credibility with Ozzie Nelson's non-existent source of income. Let's took at the ghetto that permanently depressed, unpleasant reminder to Americans that their system does not contain all the justice which they claim it does. Though middle-class, the Brooks family still lives in an apartment building in the ghetto. After seeing the cleanliness and the living standards depicted, one would be almost tempted to move there or at least make it his goal. After viewing the film, I drove home through part of the Buffalo ghetto. There were no roses there; not even a lily. There is quite a discrepancy between truth and the it would receive sensitive treatment. Since everything Papillon did can not be put into the movie, the director must be selective as to what he deals with and how he deals with it. Beating the rap? If he were telling the story of some a priori important historical figure, there might be some justification for including a pertinent (but dull or gawky) scene. But Papillon is not essentially an historical film; it tries to be a universally I important one, and it fails. There has even been quite some speculation about the veracity of the picture. Oddball of fire As far as being an oddball is concerned, Leonard Jackson comes through with dazzling colors of red fire around his eyes and yellow sparks sputtering from his mouth in response to Women's Lib. His “Mr, Cool" character, featuring an ever-striaght posture and etiquette, shines throughout the film. However, the lack of realism built into him is the film's first sign that you'd better relax and be set for "living-room entertainment.' Clarice Taylor as the meek Gladys Brooks slowly creates a character with an ever-stiffening backbone and an incidents it portrays, anyway. Perhaps this seems like a rather lengthy introduction, but as Serpico is also based on a true story, the point I am making is germane. Frank Serpico was an actual cop in New York City whose story is told in the film. He made history by: a) remaining honest in hopelessly corrupt police departments, and b) trying to stop the corruption around him. Due largely to his efforts, the Knapp Commission was formed. Also, through his efforts, he made so many enemies among hoods and cops that a bullet claimed his hearing and the partial use of a leg. A case can be made that Papillon is an ever-developing mind. A word of warning to the unwary moviegoer: the picture changes moods quite abruptly, and one might find oneself taking seriously a scene which proves to be completely nonsensical. Five on the Black Hand Side is nothing more than pleasant theatrical fluff produced particularly for those moviegoers who like to bring their television sets along with them. It is simply a good "relevant" family sit com. Hmmm, maybe we have progressed since Amos and Andy after all. o D CHINESE FOOD •STEAKS•CHOPS• Air conditioned Free Parking Open 7 days a week 7 a.m. 12 midnight 10% Discount for Pick up Table Service • " 47 WALNUT - (416)-871 Page ten . 6851 The Spectrum .

Sure, I know, it’s hurried and pedestrian. Yeah, the editing's pretty uneven. But it is this very jaggedness that captures the mood of New York City as I know it; a sketchy, almost Bohemian mood that echoes a visitor's view. It is as if the camera were a rather careless relative, leading us by the hand through the city. Incidentally, the last careless relative of mine who's getting more careful now that he's past that showed me around New York is my fifty father's fraternal twin. Sully Boyar, who appears in this film. If I didn't mention his small role of a seasoned cop who makes a graduation speech near the picture's beginning and does (I think) a good job of it, my name wouldn't be Jay Boyar. It would be Jay Mud. Or perhaps, just Mud. And by the way, my generally favorable view of this film is in no way influenced by this coincidence. Both Uncle Sully and Pacino were in another film. Panic in Needle Park, and I hated it. So chew on that, seekers of corruption. The police department may be infected, but this reviewer's desk is clean. I have a woman who comes in every other Thursday to tidy up. f— Q I Fuzzy —THE BRAZILIA 1 mJ)Mk - — r I do not think Serpico should be praised for its lack of ambition, but neither do I think it should be condemned on those grounds. We should realize that it is not a great movie but, rather, a good, lively flick and get on with it. Al Pacino (Scarecrow, The Godfather) is nice and natural. His characterization of Serpico, while not particularly inspired or intriguing, is endearing and believable. Indeed, it's true that the script and direction don't tell us why Serpico is unique'among gendarmes. Because he's really Al Pacino? Because he's Italian? Yet, Pacino's charm does give us a clue and a clue is all we need in this workmanlike move. — — • — Book maker things.

Suddenly Q — Book maker If Peter Maas (author of the book upon which the movie was based), director Sidney Lumet, and adaptors Waldo Salt and Norman Wexler have any crusade, it is informing us, through the movie, of some facts about police corruption.

Actually, it is only a hack job which tries to con us into thinking that it is a big, almost Biblical event. It uses important every trick in the book, and it does foot some people (not me, of course). But even granting (what I do not for a moment believe) that it honestly and ambitiously tries to dig out some deep meaning in life, it certainly is not up to the task. It is just too ... well, pushy. Now Serpico is a whole 'nother batlgame; it is not especially ambitious. All it does is give an entertaining account of a minor historical incident (if the Trojan War was a major, folks, then this is minor). It's no psychological study about the nature of corruption. In fact, we don't even know what makes Frank Serpico different from his fellows. All we get is a prosaic but exciting and enjoyable statement of his life and times.

WBFO �, Great ghoul Horror films related to man * ’• by Bill Maraschiello Spectrum Am Staff A word for the 1950's: technology. The Space Age, atomic energy, television. Another word: by Tom Lansing Spectrum Arts Steff Why did I see Cinderella Liberty ? Well, there's something about the underdog which greatly attracts me. For years I was an avid Met fan, my favorite pitcher posted a "won 8, lost 19" record, I voted for George McGovern through the Liberal party. I'm picking the California Golden Seals to take hockey's Stanley Cup this year, and I have always been for social justice to triumph in society. So when the Holiday Theater announced the opening of three new films last week, my course of action was embedded in past tradition. Everyone knew that Buffalo's biggest attraction. The Exorcist, had opened there last Wednesday, along with the area's second biggest film, Serpico. But how many people even noticed the advertisement for the third new feature which read; "James Caan in Cinderella Liberty "7 I had to see it. My underdog sentiment was just too strong. paranoia. Being the biggest kids on the block, everyone was after the Americans. And everything was BIG, and BIGger was better.

Always, there was another spaceman or prehistoric beast to replace the one we had just knocked off. But take Invasion of the Body Snatchers, by Don Siegel of Dirty Harry fame. Here, strange seedpods from God-knows where drain the wills and emotions from sleeping humans. The enemy is and ' Also, Rydells uneven changes of pace in the film were conducive to good viewing. Lonely people can get suddenly upset, I'll admit, but not by a flick of the switch the way Johnny and Maggie do. Eli Watlach did a fine job as Forshe, an ex-officer and friend of Johnnie's. His amusing but sad character is what the film needed. As for Marsha Mason, I don't really see how she received the Golden Globe Award for best dramatic actress. Don't get me wrong: she is quite good, even if she does laugh like a horse. But Jim, what happened to you? I mean, if you really wanted to see Serpico or The Exorcist instead of competing with them, why didn't you say so in the first place? not Vincent Price vehicles. Many of them owed nothing to Poe except their titles; the plotless poem The Conqueror Worm "inspired" a film about witch-hunts. Gorman's films were less mannered and more vigorous than the Hammer product, and the variety of his sources there's only one basic Frankenstein helped keep his films interesting. Daniel story Haller's sets accurately reflected the crumbling House of Usher or the seven chambers of The Masque of the Red Death, each done in one resplendent color. A predominantly young audience is subtly manipulated by Gorman's casting: his leads are young and attractive, the villains older and nasty to the point of absurdity. After a prolific decade (he completed one film-in a total of three days), his output has decreased in both quantity and quality. — — Swirls too early As for your director-producer Mark Rydell, there are a few things he should know. That novel by Darryl Ponicsan on which Cinderella Liberty was based was not perfectly adaptable to a 110-minute film. Rydell should have realized that the swirling climax in the book would 1 appear way too early in the film to keep the audience s interest. After all, when two lovers hit their obvious peak after one hour of running time, what other way can they go but down? The least Rydell could have done was to let Marsha and you appear to have a chance of going places, instead of smearing clouds of gray alt over the set. Super market Roger Gorman's career in the macabre began in the fifties with a series of genial horror parodies., including the hilarious The Little Shop of Horrprs, which could easily have been based on the original Mad comics. Soon afterwards, he picked up Edgar Allan Poe as his inspiration and began his series of — Beyond help Really Jim, I was rooting for you all the way, but I'm afraid not even my sympathetic disposition toward the production could help. And you didn't help either, being so embarrased by the loose story line in the opening minutes that you and your cohorts had to mumble through the opening dialogue, leaving us all up in the air as to what was medically wrong with you, which enabled you to receive "Cinderella" liberty. (Didn't the nurse mumble something about you having to be back at the base at midnight, and you mumbled the film's title?) 1 didn't see Slither, and I don't specifically remember you in The Godfather, Jim, but did you portray your characters then as unemotionally as you portrayed Johnny Baggs in this picture? Sure, Johnny is a sailor on temporary leave, and has been a loner all his life. Sure, his naval records get lost and this extends his leave in Seattle a few extra months, which makes him now not only a loner, but also almost penniless. But Jim, Johnny meets a whore, Maggie Paul, played by Marsha you know what that is? Mason, and falls in love with her. Love, Jim You and she have terrible arguements in which you walk out on her twice because Johnny is so sensitive, while his lover admits to being rather insensitive. Sensitive, Jim, do you . . . aw, what's the use! from an atmosphere of tension. Technicolor is exploited by the many shots of bloody, raw flesh. But for unrestrained bloodletting. Hammer is easily surpassed by the total disgust ofsuch films as Mark of the Devil. Fifteen years after their start, they finally appear to have flogged their horse to death. is much more effective than an all-encompasing apocalypse where individual insights can be lost. A few SF films.realized this, using it in a variety of ways. Tfte A rpazing Colossal Man and The Incredible Shrinking Man drew fear from an inexorable, dehumanizing process which turned man into freak. Robert Wise's ambitious, ponderous The Day the Earth Stood Still, where alien Michael Rennie tries to decide whether Earth should be destroyed, has great dramatic strength. Its SF elements are used by the basic story, instead of substituting gimmickry. Batty In 1958, Horror of Dracula appeared, the first successful production of England's Hammer Films. The company soon swamped the screen with highly profitable films featuring new renderings of all the Frankenstein, the Mummy, classic fiends — werewolves, etc. Christopher Lee usually plays the Van Helsing, monster, Peter Cushing the scientist Dr. Frankenstein, whoever. The rest of the acting is wooden, the scripts growing more hackneyed and predictable as time progressed. There are lush sets and music unfortunately, since lavishness distracts far too much — — Screw The vast majority of "serious" modern horror efforts are too genteel and restrained to produce real uncontrolled shudders. The Innocents, based on Henry James' The Turn of the Screw, is every bit as didactic and overly symbolic as you would expect a Truman Capote-scripted film to be; the result is self-indulgent and boring. The Haunting, Robert Wise's tale of the supernatural in a dark old house, is less ponderous in tone and more successful generally. But in both films, the supernatural events are the product of a neurotic spinster's subconscious. In The Innocents, when the young boy kisses his governess (Deborah Kerr) on the mouth, she reacts like a woman being raped. Claire Bloom, in The Haunting is a lesbian who makes advances to the disturbed Julie Harris. Freudian allusions as obvious as those are thankfully absent from Psycho, the most frightening film of the 60's. Author Robert Bloch gives Hitchcock fluent opportunity to indulge the director's macabre instincts as has never happened before or since. You all know about the drive on the rainy night, the shower scene, and that no one can be as harmless as Anthony Perkins looks! While most other cinema craftsmen are basically after the buck. Block and Hitchcock appear, in this one film, as truly evil men. The film's art is to convince us that they really mean it. Psycho is atypical in that there is nothing supernatural or superscientific about it, but its source of fright couldn’t be more reliable. I remember an H.P. Lovecraft story called The Outsider, which culminates in the narrator coming face to face with a horrifying creature more specifically, with a mirror. His monster is himself. A real monster must be a mirror or our own deepest fears, of the terrors we can create within ourselves. Any man could be a monster, but a monster's greatness depends on how much it is a man. ; — — >tere* $ens by David Simon Editor's Note: Mark Tobak is on vacation. David Simon, a hi-fidelity buff, takes his place this week. You can choose the world’s best hi-fidelity components and still get lousy sound. The original source of the music within the system is what determines the ultimate quality the system can produce. The two major sources of pre-recorded music are disc and tape. While the various tape systems (cassette, cartridge, and reel) hold promise for the future, as of now their potential for high-quality reproduction is largely untapped. Among the present pre-recorded media, only the disc can accurately reproduce music without excessive noise, distortion or lack of highs. Also, disc records are easy to store, and their convenience in playing specifit selections cannot be questioned. Undoubtedly for serious listeners, the disc will not be superceded as the foremost system for music reproduction. However, most people seem to have the attitude that a record can fend for itself. By this I mean that the proper care and feeding of discs is largely ignored. Most sizable record collections have an original purchase price in the hundreds of dollars, and they warrant the same respect that any other component in the hi-fidelity chain deserves. before playing the record to remove deeper dirt from the disc. Both devices have anti static properties to keep the record from naturally attracting dust. The major points in record care are outlined below Storage To prevent warping, records should be stored as perfectly vertical as possible. A medium amount of pressure should be applied evenly to the disc from each side. Excessive heat and cold should be avoided. Handling The only parts of a disc that should be touched are the center label and the extreme edges. Never touch the record grooves because natural oil will be left there, greatly increasing the accumulation of dust and dirt at the spot. combination is particularly hard remove, expecially once it gets ground into the vinyl. This sludge-like to Cleaning While there are a number of "record-cleaning cloths" on the market, only one manufacturer markets a complete and sensible line of record care products. Cecil Watts sells two very popular products: the Dust Bug ($6.50 list/$4.75 discount) which, when used together with the Disc Preener ($4.00 list/$2.75 discount), keep record dirt to a minimum. The Dust Bug, which resembles a miniature tone arm, mounts to the turntable and cleans the surface dust while the record is playing. The Disc Preener is used Maintenance of the Stylus Dirt periodically builds up on the stylus tip. If not cleaned, severe distortion can occur. A soft brush or watts' stylus should be used here, never a finger\ Besides leaving oils behind, the "finger" method may damage the stylus assembly. A stylus generally doesn't need replacement as often as manufacturers suggest, and most will last for two years or more of the average use. When a replacement stylus is needed, consider purchasing a whole new cartridge (with stylus), as discount house cartridge prices are usually considerably less than just purchasing the stylus from a local outlet. Make sure that the tone arm tracking force is set to the lowest possible level, consistent with good reproduction and the instructions supplied with the cartridge and turntable. Forces which are either too low or too high cause needless record wear and tear and inferior sound. Disc care should be first on the list of maintenance priorities for anyone with a record collection they consider valuable. If followed, these points will add immeasurably to the enjoyment of your records as needless wear, noise and warping will be greatly reduced. Friday, 22 February 1974 The Spectrum Page eleven . . ' �Synthesized blues Music for good times Drenched in the raw power ofAllison's whipping music Two musicians. Bob Franke and Mike Allen, from the "Buck 'n' Wing" music co-operative working out of Boston will play in Norton Hall this weekend in the UUAB Coffeehouse. Mike Allen is an accomplished instrumentalist on guitar, slide guitar, harmonica, and barrel house piano. His music is drawn from the variety of music traditions that he has absorbed in the ten years he has traveled throughout the U.S. and Canada playing music; including country & urban blues, ragtime, country-western, and Appalacian. Mike has drawn from many of America's musical greats for his inspirations. He especially likes Woody Guthrie, Blind Willie McTell, Hank Williams, Robert Johnson, and Blind Blake. Allen's performance promises more than a collection of moldy songs however, as he spices his performance with tasteless jokes, southern humor and bad puns. Allen shines on guitar with pieces like "Chicken," and "Don't Sell It, Don’t Mother Fuyer." (Roosevelt Sykes always introduces this number "This is not a dirty song !. it's all in your head.") Allen & Franke are members of a musicians co-op that tries to coordinate the activities of five Boston based musicians and side step the vicious, often creativity-sapping music business. The musicians run their own music and tour without the aid of promo men, producers, and specialists in running other peoples lives. These people have set out to relate music to people in a new human and pro-life manner. All good music is a reflection of the musician's background and surroundings, but the best bluesmen somehow manage to reflect their history and circumstances far better than anyone else. Thus, it's been only a matter of time until a totally contemporary bluesman emerged as the new guiding light in the genre. Luther Allison is nothing less than that brilliant new light. His music merges the traditional and the contemporary, the black and the white, the blues and hard rock. It's pure pleasure. Luther's personal story reflects this sense of synthesis. Born in Arkansas, he moved to Chicago at a tender age and spent most of his youth hanging about the blues bars listening to Howlin' Wolf and Magic Sam. He got his first job at the age of 17 in 1957 playing bass. After hearing B.B. King play "I Got a Whole Lot of Lovin'," the neophyte bassman turned to the guitar and in the past three years, Luther and band have torn apart the Ann Arbor Blues Festival, whupping even the biggest names. On one occasion at the Fest, Allison topped off his set by bringing up Johnny Winter for a rocking blues jam finale. Forsaken values They have expressed this attitude in a statement of purpose for their co-op: "In its obsession with profit, the American economic system has forsaken most of the values we deal with in our music. As a result it has contributed heavily to the degradation or even the death of some of our greatest artists, whether they have 'succeeded' or 'failed' in the system's terms. The graves of Robert Johnson and Jimi Hendrix, of Bessie Smith and Janis Joplin, are not too far apart; they are all located in America." Everyone concerned with the music scene today perhaps owes it to themselves to support these young musicians, and to come check out just how they work out their ideas in a real and often overwhelming world. Coffeehouse will begin Friday and Saturday shortly after 9:00 p.m. On Friday evening it will be held in its usual location in the first floor cafeteria of Norton. It should be noted that on Saturday evening Coffeehouse will take place in the Rathskeller. Tickets are available at the Norton Hall Ticket Office. B.B. and Hendrix He does wonders in his highly personalized style. He is clearly carrying on what the greats have forged, yet Allison encapsulates some of the more modern characteristics in his style. He's young and electric and the bond between old and new is indestructible in his performance. Tall, slim, and well-dressed, Luther Allison has all the ingredients for stardom. First and foremost is the fact that he knows the blues and is able to drench himself in a wide variety of styles while retaining his own genuine sound. His playing is reminiscent of B.B. King and Jimi Hendrix. Believe it or not, his playing is practically a perfect blend of those two distinct styles. He pours notes of a King with the forth the assured Stridency of a Hendrix. The effect is dazzling. Allison is fast, clear and tight. He could take on any British blues/rockers going and wipe them off the stage. He has charisma and a style that should teach the Allman Brothers fanatics a new trick or two. Allison has such facility over his guitar that it's impossible to pin him down to comparisons. His versatility is a major strength, yet it is his basic excitment and intensity that carries him through. His music bursts with the blues, loud and blaring, yet clean and precise. The group sound has the same sort of effervescent quality that distinguished Paul Culture and history in Indian crafts exhibit , A very colorful and diversified craft show featuring contributions from Native American Indians will be presented by Gallery 219, from February 17—28. The exhibit includes examples of "finger weaving," woven baskets, practical items such as a wooden device used for carrying children on an adult's back, carvings in wood and stone and jewelry made from beads and silver. Indian rituals are depicted; symbols representing different clans in the carvings; and mystical ideas are materialized in the form of masks. One stone carving "Tododaho" by Duffy Wilson of the Tuscarora Reservation is a symbolic head that depicts the founding of the Indian Confederacy 600 years ago. "Tododaho" was the name of the dissfenting chief from the Indian tribe who Onondaga protested the consolidation of the Mohawk, Oneida, Onondaga, Cayuga, and Seneca tribes into the Iroquois Confederacy. The other forty-nine chiefs agreed to the union but before the union was finalized they had to pacify the chief whose head was covered with snakes, according to The union affected the Indians in New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio and Ontario. The Grand Council of the original five nations was Onondaga held on the the Reservation, home of Todadaho. In the 1700's the Tuscarora nation joined the confederacy. The head represents good and evil forces, all the Indian people as depicted by their clan symbols, the creation of the world, the present and the wish for peace in the future. over twenty There are participants in the craft show. On Sunday February 24 a craft be conducted workshop will 1—5 p.m. The between demonstrators are: Juanita Spring silver work; Diosa Hill beadwork; Lance Hill stone carving; and Eddie Scot finger weaving.

Butterfield's first and best album. This is the type group that can go all night without ever disintegrating; it is that good. Luther Allison's blues are raw and young, as well as sophisticated. He is clearly one of the most exciting performers in today's music; his is an excitement based on depth. He should be heard. Luther Allison, along with The James Cotton Blues Band, and Buffalo's own Shakin' Smith Blues Band, will be appearing in Clark Hall Saturday February 23, at 8:30 p.m. Miss it at your own peril. -L.S. �'• -1 ' •N >3 Dave Mason: night offinely crafted rock ’n roll Valentine's Day should be spent with one's lover. Failing on that score I shuffled my emaciated being over to*Kleinhans to cover the Dave Mason and Strawbs concert. Upon arriving at the Music Hall I quickly collegiate hip scanned the crowd and decided to — — duck downstairs to the bar. If I was to be any match for this concert, I would need a little protoplasmic poison to get the adrenalin flowing and to warm and stimulate the creative juices. Besides, it is the duty and semi-binding obligation of any reviewer to rub elbows, and an occasional derriere, with the public, if for no other reason then to render elitist epithets groundless. Yet it seems a workingman can't even plant his blue-tinged lips on a good Bloody Mary because the bar wasn't making any. Slightly dazed from that amazing fact, I settled for a Bud, clicked the tumblers in my cerebrum and thought about the musical experience that stretched ahead in the night. The Strawbs, a poor man's Yes, opened the show and were immediately tieset with difficulties. The sound system was functioning below par, resulting in failures in the total sound reproduction of the vast array of keyboard instruments. Dave Cousins tried to salvage some of the proceedings with some fiery guitar work on "Just Love" and "Down By The Sea," and these moments provided the best the quintet could offer. The 40-minute Strawbs set was ensnared in a conspiracy of foul-ups, the least being vocals lost in a sound mix which even search parties couldn't locate. Sensing their predicament, arid the audience's apathy, the Strawbs quickly bowed out. VOTE FOCUS Dave Mason had put on his rock and roll sneakers. Mason's band played with cohesiveness; they anticipated one another's moves and complimented them with expertise and relish. On a blues rocker, Mike Finnegan, the keyboard man, sang with a wailing voice and assaulted the organ with the fervor and fury of a Jerry Lee Lewis disciple slightly crazed with Thunderbird. It again emphasized the fact that Mason was not content to remain laid back and mellow. "Baby.. Please" evidenced juicy guitar interplay between Mason and guitarist Paul Krueger, challenging and prodding one another, forcing the musical development into spiral waves of guitar energy. Mason's voice sounded full and fine throughout the evening. His stylized guitar phrasings were sweet, and while not always mind-boggling, they paid tribute to a musician who was in close communion with his musical inspiration and expression. Dave concluded the night with a rocking "Feeling All Right," an encore that evidently pleased an audience lifted to their feet. Dave Mason's performance at Klefnhan's is the stuff of which finely crafted rock and roll is wrought. Now only if they could do something about the bar. . . Intermission and a maze-like scurry back to the subterranean watering hole in hope of a Heinekin's. Again disappointment followed by a quick compromise, and a watery Miller's washed down my throat. Becoming somewhat jaded from these mildly frustrating episodes, I slinked back with the crowd and awaited Mason’s entrance. The lights dimmed, and out of the shadows appeared Dave Mason. He looked somewhat like a respectable George Carlin, bearded and his hair drawn slightly behind his ears and tumbling lightly on his shoulders. A pin-striped blue shirt, sweater vest, brown . bell-bottoms and boots rounded out Mason's attire. Dave opened the set with a couple of acoustic numbers which wafted through the hall; "World in Changes" was received the best. Mason then realigned the musical lineup and brought out the entire band of keyboards, guitar, bass, drums, and a wasted dude slapping a tambourine. The names Capaldi and Winwood were whispered by Mason and the band launches into "Pearly Queen." This boy knows his roots and does a satisfying rendition of the tune. Next Mason surprises everyone by announcing a tribute to you guessed it Bob Dylan and Jimi Hendrix "All — The Exorcist... Well, it's certainly not for the acting. Friedkin has sacrificed a large company of exceptional actors on the double altar of his only chjar goals; shock and money. Ellen Burstyn's Chris MacNeil is, like her daughter, sweet and attractive until the film gets messy. Once the trouble starts, however, we hear nothing from her but a lot of sniffles and an occasional scream. She and Linda Blair's Regan start out as self-consciously casual as two characters in an ambitious home movie. Once Satan seizes Regan's body, Blair the actress seems to disappear altogether. Her face and body belong as completely to make-up man Dick Smith and special effects designer Marcel Vercoutere as the character does to the demon inside her. Kitty Winn (junkie A1 Pacino's girlfriend in The Panic in Needle Park ) is lovely and nearly human as Chris' private secretary, but too irtsignificant to make any kind of a dent; while Jack MacGowran, a fine actor who has done brilliant work in several plays by Samuel- Beckett, is merely obnoxious as the director who becomes the Along the Watchtower." Dave played some subdued wah-wah, coupled with an animated vocal to push the song along pleasantly. It became obvious now that —C.P. Fark as — continued from page 9 first victim of Regan's devil As Damien Karras, Jason Miller (who, incidentally, wrote the recent Broadway hit That Championship Season) is allowed far more time to develop his character than anyone else but Satan, and is thus the most nearly successful. The tortured priest is haunted by his own personal demon the memory of his mother, who died alone and whose body was not discovered until several days later. Regan's mimicry of old — Mrs. Karras and Satan's assertion that she is "with us" finally drive him to take the girl's devil into his own body. However, the cause of his loss of faith is never sufficiently explained. We are told that he is the parish psychiatrist and that he feels he cannot help his patients by root invoking God alone, but Blatty (who also wrote the screenplay) drops the matter at that point and never touches it again. Even more mystery, and probably a richness of character far beyond Blatty's powers of tonception, was hinted at in Max Von Sydow's portray of Father Merrin, the old exorcist. Having the most potential, Merrin becomes the least satisfactory figure of all. Theology lesson Blatty, of course, has his own explanation for what is going on here. "Do you know what I think has all those people and they are mostly men, you know shaking and fainting in that movie?" he asks in a recent issue of Newsweek. "I think that they are making the unconscious connection between that repulsive - on the screen and the moral evil in their lives, like stealing from their brother and calling it business." monstrosity Wow! I He is, of course, entitled to his after all, making that much money entitles a man to almost anything, right? but trying to turn what he rightly terms "that horrible monstrosity" into a "parable of good and evil" represents a new high in Hollywood pretentiousness. What he and Friedkin were actually doing was preying on one of our oldest and mostly deeply-rooted fears our terror of opinion for Student Rssociation president: executive vice president: sub-board I vice president: treasurer: — BOB BURRICK Carol Stykes Rich Hochman Sal Napoli — — — — succeeded; in teaching us their little theology lesson, they have not. (Blatty has written a new scene to tack onto the film's end because, according to him, about fifty per cent of The Exorcist's audiences have so far misinterpreted the ending, believing it to shown the final triumph of evil over good instead of the other way around.) If you're into this sort of thing, that one big scene between Regan and Chris the one with the mentioned above blood, the flying furniture, ad nauseum is almost worth the $3.50 by itself. On the other hand, though. The Exorcist fits into my category of “movies they should pay me to sit through;" I have never been so glad to get out of a room in my life. I am beginning to believe that if I can save even one potential shock victim from certain keep one weak-stomached viewer death away from The Exorcist I will have fulfilled my duty as a critic and as a — — — — person.

Horace Brawley and Mike Jones led the Bulls with 12 caroms each, while Otis Horne pulled down 11 rebounds and led Bull scorers with 20 points. Bulls plagued by inconsistency once more in upset to LeMoyne lead. by Dave Hnath Spectrum Staff Writer “We were inconsistent,” remarked Richardson, completing his first year as Buffalo head coach. “We were down by one with possession of the ball, and we turned it over. We just don’t take advantage of the situation when we get the breaks.” The basketball Bulls played to the utmost of their inconsistent ways Wednesday night, dropping a 103-97 decision to LeMoyne at Clark Hall. The win pushed the Dolphins record over .500 to 11-10, while Buffalo dropped their 18th decision in 21 games. The loss also marked the Bulls close at half-time The Dolphins led by as many as 11 points in the first fith time the Bulls have allowed their opponents to surpass taking their biggest lead of the contest at 39-28 half, the century mark. midway through the first half. The Bulls, with Otis Home team,” Leo a assessed “I don’t think they’re good Richardson, Buffalo cage mentor. ‘The only time we and Ken Pope doing the yeoman’s share of the work, played hard was when we were ten points down.” Buffalo whittled the lead to 48-44 at the half. Four times led by one at 6-5, after which LeMoyne never relinquished thereafter, the Bulls pulled to within two, the last occasion the lead. Five times after that, the Bulls, playing their last at 89-87, before the Dolphins strung eight consecutive home contest of the campaign, pulled to within two or points to break the game open.

We thought we were in the ballgame, and then we sat on our behinds and fell back.” The Bulls can’t afford to play relaxed ball Saturday when they face a much improved St. Francis, Pa. squad. ‘The only thing I know about them is that they’re big,’” observed Richardson. ‘They have basically the same club they had last year [when the Bulls defeated them 84-82 in Clark Hall].” “We’ll play like we‘re champions down there,” continued Richardson. “It’s just our nature to play hard in the tough games, and let up when we should win. We ususally play well on the road.” It will take a much-improved defensive performance Saturday if the Bulls plan on opening their season-ending road trip with their fourth win.

Buffalo, 16-10 overall this season, will face archrival Oswego tonight and tomorrow at the latter’s Golden Romney field house. The Bulls have lost three times at Oswego since they began varsity play. The Lakers, playoff contenders themselves at the beginning of the season, have fallen upon hard times lately. Their playoff chances can probably be described as slim after losses to St. Anselm’s (11-3) and New England (6-5) last weekend. Oswego also defeated American International by 7-1. Oswego sports information director Ross Aldrich asserted that the Lakers had not been handicapped due to the midseason loss of goaltender Pete Weimer. “I wouldn’t say that we have been hurt,” said Aldrich. “[Steve] Palusco’s a very good goaltender he’s small, but quick. Bcrgy’s [Paul Berghom] done a job for us, also,” Aldrich added. Bull coach Ed Wright was anxious to avoid an “El Foldo” act similar to the one occurring in last semester’s contest against the Lakers. The Bulls’ 7-2 lead with ten minutes to play was nearly lost, as Buffalo held on for an 8-6 win. “We’re working on our mental preparation as well as physical preparation this week,” said Wright. John Moore, who has started the last four games and owns a goals again?! average of 4.81, is the likely starter for this weekend’s contests. Paluseo, who relieved Weimer midway through the third period of the previous Bull-Laker encounter, will probably start for Oswego. Should Buffalo (5-0 in Division II) defeat the Lakers twice this weekend, they could receive a playoff seed as high as fifth or as low as eighth for the tournament. Vermont, winners of eleven of twelve Division II contests and defending champions, has sewn up the first seed for the playoff tourney. The Catamounts will probably be joined by Merrimack (14-5-2), Salem State (13-3) and Boston State (12-7-2) in the top four. Buffalo is currently battling Norwich (9-5-1), Army (8-2), St. Anselm’s (10-8), Massachusetts (9-6) and Williams (6-4-2) for one of the lower echelon berths. The playoffs will begin Saturday, March 2, with the top four seeds hosting the last four squads. The fate of the Buffalo-Western Michigan series, currently scheduled for March 1 and 2 at Holiday Twin Rinks, is uncertain as a result of a possible playoff bid. - � Student Union Board presents * Someone with van to help furniture.

No. 56 Was JFK murdered b v a political conspiracy? by Cliff Palefsky, Richard Deep and Gary Cohn Was Lee Harvey Oswald the lone assassin ofPresident John F. Kennedy? Did Oswald fire even one shot that day in Dallas? Did the Warren Commission attempt to ascertain the true facts behind the assassination of JFK and the subsequent murder of Oswald? An emphatic “NO” is the answer to these questions, according to David Williams and Harvfey Yazijian, members of the Assassination Information Bureau. Last week, they made a much-awaited return trip to Buffalo to present an intriguing series of facts, slides and film aimed at showing that the Warren Commission conclusions about the murder of President Kennedy are “political truth” or “plainly and simply lies.” The long-suppressed Abraham Zapruder film-clip of the Dallas shooting was the high point of the presentation as more than 1000 students packed into Diefendorf Hall last Wednesday night. motorcycle shields was skull fragment and blood that had been projected backwards after the President was hit. Hoover: ‘human error’ Mr. Williams then told the stunned crowd that when the Zapruder film was first released by the Warren Commission, two frames of the film clip were reversed. This strange mix-up in the film made it appear that President Kennedy jerked forward, rather than backwards, after being struck by the assassin’s bullet. When this re-arrangement of the frames was discovered, then FBI director J. Edgar Hoover attributed the alteration of the film-clip to “human error,” according to Mr. Williams. Mr. Williams then presented a slide taken of the 6th floor window of the Texas School Book Depository 2 Vi seconds before the fatal shots rang out. A photo-optic analysis of the window showed that the only thing in the window was a box, he maintained. Even if Oswald had been at that window firing at the President, he could never have fired three shots in the alloted time with Zapruder v. Warren Described as “twelve seconds of the most important piece of photographic evidence ever filmed,” the Zapruder film by itself unequivocally disproves the Warren Commission’s belief that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. President Kennedy’s head was thrown,,, violently backwards and to his left by a bullet that could only have been fired from in front of the Presidential motorcade, Mr. Williams explained as he ran and re-ran the film several times. The Zapruder film runs into a head-on conflict with the Warren Commission’s statement that all the shots had been fired from behind JFK, by Oswald from the 6th floor of the Texas School Book Depository. Mr. Williams then pointed out that the “path of the bullet which the Warren Commission contended did all the damage would have had to defy all the known laws of physics.” He said that if the Warren Commission was correct, the fatal bullet would have had to: 1) enter JFK’s back approximately five inches below the neck with an upward trajectory; 2) exit through JFK’s neck; 3) suspend itself in mid-air for 1 Vi seconds before making a right turn and striking Texas Governor John Connally in a downward trajectory; 4) continue on to fracture Mr. Connally’s fifth rib, break his wrist in seven places, and then 5) lodge itself in the Governor’s thigh. the alleged murder weapon, Mr. Williams continued. Running the Zapruder film Firm grip, broken wrist once again, hp explained; “Knowing that The Warren Commission explained the the camera moves at 18.3 frames per 1 Vi second gap between the time the bullet second, and that the entire assassination exited JFK and the time Governor took place in about 93 frames, the total Connally reacted as a “delayed reaction.” time was therefore less than six seconds.” Both Governor Connally and his physicians have strongly disputed the The assassination scenario delayed reaction theory. And the Zapruder Far from an expert shot, Lee Oswald film shows Mr. Connally firmly holding a could not have fired three shots in six ten-gallon hat in his right hand after the seconds, as the Warren Commission point where the Warren Commission reported, Mr. Williams declared. concluded his right wrist had been broken. Additionally, Oswald’s gun an Italian Mr. Williams went on to present further Mannlicher-Carcano had a loose scope evidence that JFK was not shot exclusively mounting. from the rear. The doctor who examined Sharpshooters with capabilities far the President immediately after the beyond Oswald’s tried to duplicate his shooting has stated that the hole in JFK’s alleged feat in an FBI re-enactment. They throat was an “entry hole,” not an exit were unsuccessful, shooting from a hole, as stated by the Warren Commission. position half as high as Oswald’s, at larger, Additionally, the policemen on non-moving targets, with as much time as motorcycles behind JFK’s limousine said needed to aim their first shot. Only one they believed they were shot until they agent could even fire the required three realized that the material on their rounds. And, Oswald had only eight-tenths of a second to aim his first shot, according to the Warren Commission. The Secret Service also attempted to recreate the assassination scenario from the sixth floor of the Book Depository where Oswald allegedly fired his first shot. They discovered that the view of JFK’s car from the depository window was substantially blocked by a large oak tree. Nitrates And when the Dallas police did a parafin test on Oswald, the tests on his cheeks proved negative, lending support to the theory that Oswald did not fire any rifle shots at JFK. A parafin test measures the amount of nitrates on a subject’s hands, cheeks, arms, etc. Mr. Williams pointed out that the small amounts of nitrates found on both of Oswald’s hands could have been caused by a handgun, but were more likely due to some other substance. Besides gunpowder, a positive measure on the parafin test will be yielded by such substances as orange peels, urine, tobacco and paint, according to a spokesman for the Buffalo police laboratories. And if Oswald had fired a handgun, it is extremely unlikely that the tests on both hands would be positive, Mr. Williams explained, because a handgun is not usually shot with both hands. However, the police lab spokesman Wednesday, 20 February 1974 who admitted that they were involved in an assassination conspiracy. Emanuel Santana admitted taking two shots at JFK. Immediately after filing his deposition, Mr. Santana fled the US, reportedly to South America. Communications link James Hines filed a deposition detailing his role as a “communications link” in the alleged assassination conspiracy. Mr. Hines is now being held against his will in an Air Force mental institution. During the presentation, Mr. Yazijian showed a slide of an individual, believed to be Mr. Hines, with a bulge in his back pocket that Mr. Hines has stated was a communications device. Mr. Garrison also invetigated the role played by David Ferry in the alleged conspiracy. Mr. Ferry, an experienced pilot, was doing “cancer research” at the time of the assassination. Reportedly, Mr. Ferry was not looking for a cure for cancer, but rather for a way to transfer the disease from one living organism to another. Immediately following a “leak” from Mr. Garrison’s office that Mr. Ferry might be indicted, Mr. Ferry was found dead in his home. Mr. Ferry’s coroner determined that Mr. Ferry had died of natural causes, and the coroner was later found dead , • — — cautioned that the parafin test was an extremely unreliable measure of whether the subject had indeed fired a gun. Specifically, he explained that bolt-loading guns, such as the Mannlicher-Carcano allegedly used by Oswald, would not necessarily result in a positive parafin test. The Buffalo police abandoned the parafin test after such tests on a subject shooting 100 rounds with a rifle failed to produce a positive measure. He explained that this could account for the absence of nitrates on Oswald’s cheeks. Mr. Williams then discussed former New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison’s 1967 grand jury investigation of the JFK murder, the likelihood that Oswald was really a US intelligence agent, and the mysterious deaths that have struck many material witnesses and probing journalists. Mr. Williams explained that in 1967, when Mr. Garrison was presenting evidence to the grand jury, he obtained depositions (sworn statements) from two individuals himself. Additionally, two suicide notes were allegedly left by Mr. Ferry both completely typed, including the signature, Mr. Garrison had been investigating the possibility that Mr. Ferry had been hired to use his expert pilot skills to help members of the alleged conspiracy flee the country. When Oswald was arrested in Dallas, Mr. Ferry’s library card was in his possession. Mr. Williams then shocked the crowd by reminding them that Jack Ruby had died of cancer, and that Mr. Ruby had showed no signs of the disease two months before his death. Mr. Williams explained that Mr. Garrison’s investigation was shackled by a lack of cooperation and constant harassment. For instance, Mr. Garrison’s request for extradition of a key witness was denied. Extradition requests are rarely turned down, Mr. Williams explained. Additionally, Mr. Garrison’s top aide leaked evidence about the investigation prematurely, hindering Mr. Garrison’s — —continued from page 1— �/ finance.” In 1972, 5Vi million dollars from oil companies was donated to Mr. Nixon’s campaign. Sen. McGovernwent on to say, “This includes the crisp, one hundred dollar bills used to pay Watergate burglars.” Of the Presidency, en< New stewardship “The power to remedy these problems lies within Congress,” Sen. McGovern stated. “Through legislation, Congress has the power to dismantle the power concentration within the oil industry and initiate federal control. It has the potential to free candidates from heavy reliance on such companies for campaign funds, and it has the power to initiate exploration and development of other sources of energy, such as solar energy, and coal reserves. Coal reserves are presently utilized by oil companies, but Congress can break up this monopoly,” Sen. McGovern added. “This energy crisis may act as a catalyst for new stewardship in natural .resources.” The senator believes the American people have the capacity to turn adversity into strength and Congress can still “shine sunshine into dark corners,” if it would reassert itself, demand public disclosure of usipalp funds end budgets as well m encouraging public participation in tfee adpauiatiqn of candidates. Sen. McGovern quoted Boss Tweed as saying “1 don’t care who does the electin’, as long as I can do the nominatin’.” “There is too much concentration of power in economics and the executive branch,” Sen. McGovern concluded. figures,” Sen. McGovern related. “The administration has committed a crime by failing to take the responsibility to control the oil industry.” The oil industry has been “pampered,” and their tax loopholes have been “overlooked,” added Sen. McGovern. Last year, Mobil and Texaco Oil Companies paid 3% of their income taxes, and Exxon’s profits totaled 81%. To these statistics, Sen. McGovern replied, “It’s no wonder that Exxon no longer uses the name ‘Humble’.” Sen. McGovern continued. “The administration has George McGovern been in agreement with the oil industry from the very beginning.” When asked by the public ’what can be done?’, the administration simply told the public to face the higher prices. No action was taken against the price rise. “This is not hard to understand,” Mr. McGovern contended “as one reviews the Nixon campaign’s source of JFK killed by conspiracy? chance of obtaining indictments. Mr. Garrison himself was indicted on charges of extortion, and later acquitted in a jury trial. D.A. Garrison: ‘burned’ ML Yazijian later told The Spectrum that he had spoken with Mr. Garrison recently and that he (Mr. Garrison) was very reluctant to get involved with another investigation because of the way he was “burned.” Mr. Yazijian added that Mr. Garrison probably knows more about what really happened than anyone else alive. Turning to the strange events surrounding Jack Ruby, Mr. Yazijian said that Dorothy Kilgalen, the only journalist granted a private interview with Mr, Ruby, reportedly told friends following the interview that she would “break the whole story” within five days. Within five days, Ms. Kilgalen was dead, of an apparent suicide. When Earl Warren and Gerald Ford went to Dallas to interview Jack Ruby for the Warren Commission, Mr. Ruby allegedly told them: “If you take me to Washington, I’ll tell you all I know. I’m afraid to talk to you here in Dallas.” According to Mr. Williams, Mr. Warren then told Mr. Ruby that if he was afraid, then he shouldn’t say anything. Mr. Williams maintained that five journalists were seen speaking to Jack Ruby the night before he shot Oswald. Shortly thereafter, Mr. Ruby was also seen speaking with Dallas police officer J.D. Tippett. Mr. Tippett was also shot on November 22, 1963, allegedly by Oswald shortly after the JFK murder. Hysterical witness Eyewitnesses to the Tippett slaying have described Mr. -T%)pett’s murderer as “stocky with bushy hair,” according to Mr. Yazijian. Lee Harvey Oswald was 5’9”, 160 pounds, and had a receding hairline. Page two . The one woman who identified Oswald as the assailant was reported to have been hysterical at the time of the shooting. Furthermore, she twice failed to identify Oswald at a police line-up. Mr. Williams also pointed out that Officer Tippett was the only meber of the Dallas police force not to radio in his location at 1 p.m. He was shot at 1:16 p.m. Mr. Williams spoke about a picture of Oswald that received widespread distribution in the national media. In the picture, Oswald is shown with the alleged murder weapon, a handgun and two Pro-Communist newspapers. That picture of Oswald is a composite photo, Mr. Williams charged. Pointing to the shadows the shadow that Oswald in the photo cast went one way and the shadow of the stairs he was standing next to went the other way Mr. Williams siad that there “would have had to be two suns in the sky” for the picture to be legitimate. — - FBI agent Oswald? When Oswald was shown that picture, he is reported to have said: “That’s my head, but that’s not my body.” Mr, Williams then proceeded to show that Oswald’s chin was markedly different from the “chin" in the alleged composite photo. Oswald’s pro-Communist leanings, as reported by the Warren Commission, were also challenged by Mr. Williams and Mr. Yazijian. They claimed that Oswald was in fact a FBI agent, and that he had also worked for various other US intelligence agencies. Oswald was on the FBI payroll at the time of the assassination, according to reports from the Texas District attorney, Mr. Williams stated. Mr. Williams offered evidence that suggests that “Lee Harvey Oswald had friends in high places.” He supported this contention by detailing Oswald’s actions after he left the US to defect to the Soviet The Spectrum . Wednesday, 20 February 1974 Favors impeachment Concerning the office of the presidency, Sen. McGovern stated, “I believe the best way Congress can begin to reform the present administration is to bring the President to trial in the Senate. Even if I were a strong defender of Mr. Nixon, I would still say the method of impeachment is the way to clear the air and clarify the matter." When asked whether he favored the ousting of President Nixon, Sen. McGovern clearly responded that he would not make any judgment until the president is actually brought to trial in the Senate through the process of impeachment. “That would be giving you my verdict before the trial,” he replied. During the question and answer period, Sen. McGovern answered several other questions concerning subjects such as women’s rights, amnesty, Social Security, and his 1976 political plans. Concerning amnesty, the senator believes “the Congress has' no power in this decision. The decision lies entirely with the president.” To the question concerning his future plans, he jokingly answered, “Last year, Tehgaged in a struggle for the 1974 U.S. Senate in South Dakota, and I think that’s enough for me right now.” —continued on page 2-~ • .•. ... Union. Oswald, he contends, went to the US embassy in Russia and denounced his US. citizenship, informing the embassy that he intended to tell the Russians all he knew with regard to U.S. radar installations on the west coast. While in the Marines, Oswalk had reportedly received security clearance on various projects, including the U-2 flights. Back in the U.S.A After Oswald married, he requested permission to return to the U.S. Not only did the embassy arrange for a one-way passport, but they loaned him the money for airfare. Once back in America, Oswald applied for another passport, even though his other one was revoked. His application was immediately approved and a new passport was sent out within 24 hours. To further strengthen his point, Mr, Williams informed the audience that each time Oswald was arrested in New Orleans, he requested to speak to the FBI. Mr. Williams and Mr. Yazijian continued to impress the SRO crowd with their overwhelming array of facts. They stated that in an interview with CBS newscaster Walter Cronkite, former President Lyndon Johnson is reported to have expressed grave doubts about the Warren Commission finding that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. President Johnson later asked CBS to delete that statement from the interview, and CBS agreed for “national security reasons.” Sealed until 2039 National security is also the justification for holding a number of files until the year 2039, These files, according to Mr. Williams, detail Oswald's relationship with the U.S. intelligence agencies. Conclusive evidence has been almost impossible to obtain because 15 of the 18 material witnesses (those interviewed by the Warren Commission) are now dead. Based on their average life expectancy, the odds against this happening are one hundred thousand trillion to one, according to an actuary for The London Times. Of the 15 who died, five were murdered, three died in motor vehicle accidents, three from suicide, two of natural causes, one from a slit throat, and one from a karate chop on the neck. Asked whether he wds afraid of a similar “mysterious death,” Mr. Williams explained that death seemed to follow material Witnesses and those who sought information that they were not supposed to have, not those who publicized the Warren Commission inconsistencies. Warren, Ford and . . Jaworski In an interview with The Spectrum, Mr. Williams and Mr. Yazijian explained that their main function is to generate questions in people’s minds about the validity of the Warren Commission report. After nine months of extensive research, they began a lecture tour of college campuses. Mr. Williams said he hoped to expand the presentation to the national media and government sources within the near future. However, he explained that the national press has been afraid to touch the issue because of the possible effect on the “status quo,” and because of the prestige of Earl Warren, Iqead of the Commission and former Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. Gerald Ford and Leon Jaworski also served on the Warren Commission. Mr. Yazijian is currently working on a book that will include the visual evidence presented in Diefendorf last week. That book will contain the‘controversial Zapruder film clip, displayed . frame-by-frame. And so it goes. The debate rages on Who killed JFK? �Gubernatorial candidate ‘Committed to make tax program fairer’ going to not charge people for improving their houses as far as property taxes for five years. by Richard Lapping Spectrum Staff Writer Howard J. Samuels announced his candidacy last week for the for Democratic nomination Governor: of New York. His Western New York campaign officially began last Thursday at a breakfast with Buffalo labor leaders, followed by a press conference at the Statler Hilton 'Z- -Hotel. Mr. Samuels stepped down as chairman of the Offtrack Betting Corporation two weeks ago. He is “totally convinced that this State has been mismanaged.” “Committed to make the tax program fairer,” Mr. Samuels explained his reasons and plans Howard Samuels system: “This year New York State led the nation in taxes. Taxes went up $100 per person. This state government pays the smallest of proportion total government costs of any state in the nation,” he declared. He released the first of two position papers on the subject of property tax reform: “What I am trying to do is give preferential treatment to both renters and homeowners on property tax by moving property taxes to classifications rather than a valuation. Fifteen other states in the nation do it, and I want to move that to the state of New York.” Under present our program, anybody improving their house is discouraged from doing it because they immediately get taxed,” Mr. Samuels continued. “It pays for people to let their houses degrade.

Supported by Councilman Price, the Parks Department is asking for an initial $85,000 allocation for the next year. Although the budget is still pending formal approval by the Common Council and Mayor Makowski, Mr. Price felt the budget could pass by proving the park “is an exciting thing for the Mayor to want.” He said a new budget would be submitted each successive year and money would be granted, “depending on whether they can come up with exciting concepts for the rest of the park." A group of enthusiastic students and community residents will pool their imaginations and resources with City Hall to transform 26 acres of empty land into a comprehensive public park. Situated behind Bennett High School adjacent to the LaSalle Quarry, the prospective park will be named after Joe McCarthy, the former New York Yankees manager who resides in the Buffalo area. The idea to design the park was conceived last spring in Beverly Paigen’s Environmental Action class. Several of Dr. Paigen’s students discovered that the vacant area in the University vicinity had been earmarked for a park by the city, and decided to To organize the workload, Dr. Paigen’s group submit their own plans for an innovative residential has divided into two sub-committees. The first will park. While other local groups had previously deal primarily with designing the upper third of the expressed interest in the land, only the Kensington park, a ten-acre area which includes the play area, Little League Baseball Organization had succeeded in shelter house, basketball and tennis courts, and the pressuring the city to build four baseball fields on picnic area. This planning group is particularly the lot. However, no attempt was made at further anxious to design a playground or “tot lot” which development. Dr. Paigen termed “unconventional, creative and innovative.” Homework After receiving approval for their project from Free form the city Park Department, the students contacted The recreational equipment will not consist of various citizen groups to determine the type of park the usual monkey bars and swings, explained Dr. facilities residents wanted in the neighborhood.

Mr. Samek’s staff is optimistic: “We are sure that our program will work because, although we are coming from different places, we are all going to the same place.

SIGNATURE I �t ~ ' * r v... •• ■1V Assassination coverup? There is not yet enough evidence to prove that President John F. Kennedy was the victim of an assassination that conspiracy. But the Warren Commission's contention Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone in killing President Kennedy has been exposed as political truth by various researchers, including the ones who have twice visited this campus. — — The evidence is indisputable. The Warren Commission concluded that all the shots were fired from behind JFK from a sixth-story window by Oswald. But filmed evidence clearly shows that President Kennedy's head was thrown backward by a bullet that must have been fired from in front of his motorcade. The frames of the original film, however, were mysteriously altered to show Kennedy's head being thrown forward instead. Also, according to the Warren version, Oswald would have to have fired three shots in six seconds, a feat FBI rifle experts could not re-enact. The incredible string of deaths of witnesses to the assassination and those investigating it can only fuel the conspiracy theories. Voluminous evidence makes clear that the Warren Commission began with the conclusion that Oswald acted alone, then tried to build a supporting case, ignoring contradictory evidence along the way. Whether evidence was altered and suppressed in a deliberate coverup is not known. But it is obvious the Warren Commission did not want to find an assassination conspiracy. This presumably would have shaken the faith of the country by revealing that an American Presidential election could be invalidated by a politically-motivated murder conspiracy. 'I WARN YOU, RICHARD — YOU'RK TRYING MY FATUNCtl' Outside I/Dojcing In They landed at Buffalo International Airport and took a cab to the State University of Buffalo campus, where preliminary reports indicated Washington was in hiding. “When do we get laid, Jim, huh, when do we get laid?” Ron asked. He’d been watching all the old Sean Connery films while his boss watched Patton and John Wayne movies. “Cut it out, Ron, we have work to do,” Bond replied icily. “A hell of a way to come out of retirement,” Bond thought. It had been six years since his last mission (George Lazenby, Roger Moore and that last little abortion with Jill St. John didn’t count) and he was being ordered to find a politician who reportedly could not tell a lie to head a public relations campaign for a President who didn’t know the difference between truth and falsehood. They got out at Norton Union and headed to the Rathskellar, where Washington was supposed to spend a great deal of time. “What about that one over there, Jim, the redhead with the big knockers? Just get me that one and I’ll be happy,” Ron begged, drooling. Bond saw his opportunity to get rid of the bloody fool once and for all. Straightening his black knit tie he walked up to the redhead with a quaint Americanism, Bond the big knockers mused and said his famous line that used to land more women into bed than “Of course I’ll still respect you,” the immortal line; “My name’s Bond, James Bond.” Bond had not anticipated the social changes of the past few years. “Fuck off you male chauvinist pig,” she shouted, emphasizing her point with a quick knee to Bond’s groin. Gritting his teeth, Bond pointed Ron out to her and said he was a local Assemblyman who planned to vote against the Equal Rights Amendment. The redhead with the big knockers went off eagerly and Bond walked off to the Rat. He made his way to a table, choking on the grease-laden air and ordered a drink; “A vodka martini, shaken, not stirred, very cold, Wolfschmidt’s will do.” “If you want that, man, you’ll have logo to the Tiffin Room. How about a beer?” answered the woman behind the counter. But then Bond’s attention was arrested by a man in a powdered wig pulling a splinter out of his hoagie with cheese. to be continued by Clem Colucci “Good morning, Moneypenny,” said the tall, dark-haired man in the dark blue suit, cream-colored shirt and black knit tie as he tossed his hat faultlessly onto the hatrack. “M wants you right away, James,” said Moneypenny, barely suppressing a violent urge to jump on the star of the British Secret Service, rip off his dark blue suit, cream-colored shirt and black knit tie and assault him right in front of the door to M’s office. Secret Agent 007, James Bond, walked into M’s office and took the chair the crusty old admiral indicated. “Bond,” M said, “we’re putting you on loan to the United States government.” “What’s that sir?” asked the incredulous Bond. M’s behavior had grown increasingly erratic over the past few years. The old man must be getting senile. M continued; “We’ve just gotten a coded message from Wilson at CIA. If you’ve been following the American press you know their President blast, what’s the fellow’s name again?” “Nixon?” Bond volunteered. “Oh yes, that’s the bloke. He’s in trouble. Nobody believes him anymore.” “No one believes Edward Heath anymore either,” Bond observed. “That’s beside the point,” M snapped with obvious irritation. “Here are your orders. There’s a flight to the States in the hour. Be on it.” Several hours later, Bond was on another flight from Washington to, of all places, Buffalo, New York. He had been briefed thoroughly in Washington, reinforcing his belief that the intelligence operations of the free world are all manned by lunatics. He had been called in to restore the President’s ill fated “Operation Candor” by finding the one man who could pull it off George Washington. “Bloody idiots,” Bond muttered darkly as he reread the details of his assignment What’s that, Jim?” asked the man beside — When one looks how the Kennedy assassination changed the course of history, it is not hard to find plausible motives for a conspiracy. Many elements were alienated at President Kennedy's 1963 test-ban treaty with the Soviet Union and proclaimed intention to withdraw American troops from Vietnam. Many in the CIA were bitter following the Bay of Pigs fiasco, and Oswald’s strange Soviet and FBI lend credence to a and subsequent murder connections conspiracy theory. If Kennedy had lived, he would have been many believe re-elected in 1964 and de-escalated the Vietnam War. Since the Dallas shooting, this country has seen 10 years of war in Indochina and five years of Richard at — — — — Nixon. evidence which Enough evidence has been presented to directly contradicts the Warren Commission’s findings warrant an immediate reopening of the investigation into President Kennedy's assassination. President Johnson never believed that Oswald acted alone, and Robert Kennedy whose murder also raises many unanswered questions wanted to reopen the inquiry if he were elected President. Gerald Ford and Leon Jaworski served on the Warren Commission, which casts doubt on the Vice-President and — — — — the man investigating Watergate. most disturbing fact is that despite the documentary evidence, the national media has completely ignored these vital questions. Whether this news blackout is due to skepticism, designed to protect men's reputations, or simply to deny that a conspiracy to assassinate an American President could succeed, the media may be acquiescing in a coverup that would dwarf Watergate. The contradictory anyone who has seen the evidence is overwhelming documentary and filmed evidence has come away convinced. The media can no longer look the other way; the investigation must be reopened. Although the findings of the Warren Commission have been substantially disproven, it seems the murder of a President is still being covered up. But the — - — - him “Nothing,” Bond replied. “Why they had to send this bloody Nazi idiot Zeigler along I'll never understand,” he thought. It was bad enough that he was being sent to Buffalo to find George Washington, but to have this horse’s ass of a PR man along was intolerable.

A new drug law. designed to protect and inform the consumer, is now in effect. The new law “requires pharmacies to post a list of 150 of the most used prescription drugs.” Headed by Richard Futyma, a team of researchers from Western New York Public Interest Research Group (WNYP1RG) recently conducted a survey “in order to determine the extent to which drugstores were complying with the law, and to sample the price variations among stores.” Eight pharmacies located near this University were chosen as a sample, including: Lee’s Drugstore, University Plaza; Herzog’s Drugstore, 3168 Main Street; Leader Drugstore, 400 Kenmore Ave.; Lincoln Park Pharmacy, 540 Niagara Falls Blvd.; Delhurst Pharmacy, 695 Kenmore Ave.; Varsity Drugs, 3378 Bailey Ave.; and Highgate Professional Pharmacy, 3435 Bailey Ave. Pricing data WNYPIRG randomly selected ten drug items from the list to indicate each store’s general pricing trend. According to Mr. Futyma, the federal law “does not specify by name which drugs it must be the 150 most are to be listed commonly dispensed by the individual drugstore.” There are “really only about 100' different drugs listed. The rest represent varying sizes and quantities of the same items,” he explained. The average difference between the highest and lowest prices charged for one of these ten items was $1.49, although some varied by as much as $2.86. “In many instances it would be profitable for the shopper to do some price comparison between stores if he is interested in saving money,” Mr. Futyma advised consumers. ... Stiff fines Most of the stores had their lists posted in a “visible location,” which Mr. Futyma defined as “an arbitrary term. If you could walk around and easily find it by yourself, we labeled it visible.” A store could be stiffly penalized if the Board of Pharmacy pulled a surprise inspection and the sign were not posted, he added. “The price shown on the list for a organized a consistent pricing certain drug does not necessarily reflect the pharmacists before the new law went into effect price which would be paid for that drug in scale order to eliminate the cut-throat on in a size and quantity different from that might otherwise result. which are competition the list,” Mr. Futyma explained.

WIRR is the University’s dorm radio station, broadcasting from Clement Hall to all the Main Campus dormitories. Presently, WIRR can’t afford to run telephone lines to the North Campus that would enable Amherst dorm residents to pick up the station. Next year it plans to move its studio to the Ellicott Complex. Funded by the Inter-Residence Council (IRC), student-run WIRR provides an alternative to increasingly commercial rock music stations. It is a free-form radio station, with no censorship, and has been broadcasting for three years. Ego trip “Anyone can become a disc jockey for WIRR,” according to general manager Sparky Alzamora. “It’s fun, and it’s an ego trip hearing yourself on the air.” Although everyone has to engineer their own shows, no previous experience in radio is necessary. It’s not hard to learn. Ian Pauli is the chief engineer, the man responsible for putting things together. He is considered a great asset to the staff. All students are welcome to join the WIRR staff, not only speech and communications majors. There is a waiting list at the present time of would-be disc jockeys to get times on the air. The DJ’s have access to a new record library. The installation of the library was delayed until the directors found a system that would combat the frequent ripping-off of albums. DJ’s also bring their own records to the studio to play on their shows. The most successful disc jockeys are scheduled for the prime time weekday night slots by Jerry Duci, the station’s program director Progressive rock Most of the shows feature rock music, but there are occasional variations from rock fare, such as comedy shows and classical music. There is an interview show, and special events every Thursday night. A special on UFO’s will take place sometime in me near future, whicn will include a discussion with a man who claims he has taken pictures of flying saucers, and with several University astronomy professors. It will be videotaped by Act Five, the campus video group. WIRR sends out flyers for publicity, but mostly relies on word-of-mouth. They also provide the music at IRC beer blasts, with the hope that people will like them and start listening. “It is just a matter of time before WIRR is ' NYSA New student group formed State legislation by unifying college conference.

The Spectrum Page seven . �Mars on the fringe Bringing a Jull concept’to a Firebug-vicar named Flint performances, not any one performance ... Actors should be more like musicians. They [musicians] appreciate the value of working in concert.” by Jay Boyar Spectrum Arts Editor Kenneth Mars is a fringe celebrity. He’s one of and yet, those people who is, essentially, famous his name. few know people actually very Through the years he’s popped up in a few films and television programs. In 1967 he made 40 commercial appearances for a variety of products. Perhaps be is a little better known in Buffalo than in most places, as he is currently starring in the title role of Studio Arena Theater’s current production, Flint. Talking to a “fringe” celebrity is, as you might expect, not much different from talking to a celebrity per se, or to a “regular” person; interviewing such a man, however, is tricky. Noclear and glossy picture of his personality existed in my mind he’s no Steve McQueen or Jack Benny. 1 Yet some things must be taken for granted had seen him act in several vehicles. The Producers was a zany film with Zero Mostcl and Gene Wilder, in it, Mars played a comically crazy Nazi. In He and She on T and V he played Fireman Harry. In Flint, he is no fireman rather, he is an old Anglican vicar accused of starting fires. - - - — From Mats “I think it [Flint] is essentially a religious play,” says Mars. “I think it would be putting something in the play to say that Flint finds God in the end . It’s a play about the virtuous people and what a pain in the ass they are.” Vicar Flint is a devout agnostic who sees his religion as an impediment to happiness. What does Mars think? “I’m so far away from religion! It’s bullshit, daddy worship.” He thinks, and softens his statement by adding; “I guess it can be a wonderful comfort to some people, but not to me.” No theologian, but an experienced and talented actor, Mars seems at home when he comments on his craft; “A play is really a group of people performing in concert; it’s the sum total of all those - . . Faring better than some of his fellow actors in of Flint, Mars brought what he calls a “full concept” his role to the production. One particularly effective piece of business he uses is to pull from his picket a huge pack of industrial matches, light his cigar, and place the lighted match back in his pocket. Rerun In my review of the play, I said; As his name is Flint, and as he is under suspicion of arson at the time, the move is appropriate, but as it is done in a very off-hand manner with the dialogue kept as the center of interest, it is a very good and, yes, subtle move. All through rehearsal, this match business gave him no trouble. Then came the play’s preview night: fire. His pocket smoked and blazed. Turning to the avjdience, he explained, “I’m on fire!” Not the greatest ad-lib in the world, we’ll both admit. Needless to say, Mars now keeps a wet sponge in his foil-lined pocket. Dark Towers is Mars’ next film, with director Arthur Penn (Bonnie and Clyde, Little Big Man) and starring Gene Hackman. “Gene plays a cop, for a change,” ’ he smiles. In it, Mars plays a hero-worshipper who runs a modern detective agency. Hackman is a maverick “obsessed with finding the truth.” Rambling about life in general. Mars suggests: “One of the things I’ve found is that so many people 1 don’t think it’s just actors, but all people bring so much personal pain to their work that it negates the work . . People don’t come to terms with this pain. I’ve found this is true a lot in the theater. I’ve spent a lot of money getting my head fixed so I can work.” Up until February 24, Mars continues working with director Warren Enters in Flint by David Mercer, From February 28 to March 24, Studio Arena will present There’s a Girl in My Soup, starring Van Johnson. - - . j HAIRSfYLiNG Barber Get your tickets ™ AY!!! ! ®J$k accredited University of Arizona GUADALAJARA SUMMER SCHOOL offers July I-August 10. 1974 courses in ESL, bilingual education, Spanish, anthropology, art, folk dance and folk music, geography, government and history.

The above is an excerpt from the famous Cole Porter song, Anything Goes, from the musical comedy by the same name. Panic Theater will present Anything Goes free of charge on March 8 and 9 in the Fillmore Room. Panic Theater, a club funded by Student Association and the Inter-Residence Council, was organized to provide a musical comedy production each semester for the University community. With a cast and crew of over 40, Anything Goes promises to be Panic Theater’s boldest and brassiest production to date. The score includes Cole Porter’s “Night and Day,” “I Get A Kick Out of You,” “You’re the Top,” “It’s Delovely,” “Blow Gabriel Blow,” and many others. programs, and other miscellaneous show’s orchestrations. Musical Director Mayda Katz emphasized To alleviate the financial the need for an orchestra: ‘The the music problems incurred by their latest score is fantastic production, members of the cast ranges from the electrifying and crew will be canvassing the “Blow Gabriel Blow” to the campus in search of $1 booster beautifully serene “Night and donations. In return for the Day.” Working without an donation, the name of the booster orchestra is equivalent to painting will appear in the show’s program. a mural with one color. Porter’s Director Judy Weinberg explained music deserves an orchestra, and the need for the extra funds; in order to pay for the orchestrations, we need money.” “Anything Goes is a period play Members cast have a play of the early ’30’s.

We would rather get our money from those who can afford a donation,” he said. ‘In this manner, our needs are met and our doors are open to all, which is one of the basic philosophies of Panic Theater.” � Student Union Boord presents � - - — Woe is me Panic Theater has been plagued with financial woes since its inception in January 1971. Producer Judy Kravitz explained the problem: “We work under several severe handicaps, the major problem being the lack of an auditorium suitable for the performance of large-scale musical comedy productions. We are budgeted at $1200 each semester, yet almost all of it must be used for payment of royalties and the stage, sound, and lighting rental. This leaves next to nothing for costumes, sets, props, make-up. MCA Recording Artists LYNYRD SKYNYRD -»i.

Led by Darnell Montgomery’s sparkling defensive work, the Bulls came from behind to post an 83-82 decision over the Knights from Geneseo. Geneseo, now 12-6 on the campaign, was led by Harry Ward. Averaging 22 points per game, Ward is a product of Buffalo’s East High. In fact, all five Geneseo starters were from the Buffalo area, leading an observer of the game to think this was the Knights’ home game, not Buffalo’s. The 6-2 forward burned Bull forwards Jim Randall and Horace Brawlcy for 12 points in the first half, leading the visitors to a 4541 halftime margin. The Knights came out smoking in the second half, stringing the first six points of the period together for a ten point lead at 5141, the greatest margin of the game for either team. It was here that Buffalo head coach Lee Richardson inserted Montgomery to stop Ward, and the move seemed to turn things around for the Bulls. Defensive play contagious Montgomery’s defensive play was infectious, as the Bulls slowly cut away at Geneseo’s lead. ‘-Darnell played better than anyone else we had out there,” assessed Richardson. “1 don’t think anyone else played to the maximum of their ability. [MikeJJones and [Otisjdorne were both inconsistent.” Buffalo took the lead for the first time since <he opening moments of the game at 62-61, outscoring Geneseo 21-10 and shutting off the Knights inside game. Geneseo regained the lead and held on for most of the game. However, with forty seconds showing oh the clock, Horace Brawley gave the Bulls an 81-80 lead. Brawley, who scored Buffalo’s last six points, then put away both ends of a one-and-one situation from the foul line to ice' the win for the Bulls. Domzalski, Horne pace Bulls Gary Domzalski and Otis Horne led the Bulls in scoring with 16 points apiece, and Brawley chipped in with 15 points and 11 rebounds. Ward wound up with 18 points, all but four coming before Montgomery entered the contest for the last 17 minutes. “I thought we played pretty good defense the last 25•minutes,” remarked Richardson. In the foul-plagued Junior varsity preliminary, both teams finished the contest with six players as the Junior Knights held on for a 98-93 decision over the Baby Bulls. The contest, with 64 fouls whistled including a record 37 against the Baby Bulls, featured five players fouling out and a brief skirmish between Buffalo’s John Rufflno and Geneseo’s Mike Savanovitch. Both players were ejected from the game. Tonight, the Bulls face LeMoyne in their final home contest of the season before departing on a four game road trip to end the Bulls longest season. The Baby Bulls, now 4-11 on the year, face the LeMoyne JV in the preliminary at 6:30. *Bulls matmen add two more victories to their 20-1 record ASHLAND, Ohio The ability to come from behind helped Buffalo’s wrestling Bulls defeat host Ashland College and Cincinnati Saturday. Buffalo downed Ashland 25-13 and whipped the Bearcats by 21-12. A fourth team, southern powerhouse, East Carolina, was scheduled to wrestle, but had to - Nowakowki, who has had a lot of trouble lately, looked better than he has in a long time. The senior co-capatin leveled Ashland’s Ed Hissa to clinch the Eagle contest. Jerry will hopefully improve further if he can return to his normal weight class (158) for the post season tournaments. Freshman Bruce Hadsell finished with a 8-7 win over Cincinnati’s Jake Hollowasy. Hadsell was behind 7-2 before starting a comeback with a takedown. Oddly enough, takedowns are the weakest part of the youngster’s otherwise strong repertoire. Ed Hamilton, who is even worse on his feet than is Hadsell, decisioned Ashland’s Eli Whitten after securing a takedown in the third period. It was a strange day for Ed the “Scrambler,” as he got a takedown, beat someone without pinning them, and tried some conventional pinning holds in addition to his own very special variety. withdraw due to traveling difficulties. The two wins finalized an eye-opening 22-1 dual meet record, by far the best in Buffalo history. The one loss was to Clarion State, the only opponent that could be termed “super.” However, fourth ycjjr coach Ed Michael’s gTapplers deflated a dozen Or so excellent squads, a slate few teams can match. Wally Davis and Jerry Nowakowski had key pins while Bruce Hadsell and Ed Hamilton chipped in with important decisions in Saturday’s action. In all four matches the Bull victors were at a decided disadvantage before turning things around. Pavis was losing to Cincinnati’s Darrel Lash, by a point with Lash riding him out in the final period. Lash then hurt his ankle and shortly after the Whitten's analysis perfect Whitten, who upset Hamilton in a tournament resumption of the action, Davis reversed the positions and pinned his Bearcat opponent with a two years ago, was wrestling the last home match of his career after a 17-1 season and an All Ammerican half nelson. accolade. According to Hamilton, Whitten had the bout analyzed perfectly. “He told me that he’d have Tenacious ride Davis was convinced that the injury had very to get me on my back or I’d have to take him little to do with his comeback, “He would have died down.” “Crazy Ed” admitted it was about time he anyway,” said the muscular 158 pounder. Until the took somebody down. The second season (post season tournament reversal, Davis’ problem had been freeing his legs from Lash’s tenacious ride. It seems a simple circuit) starts this weekend at the New York State headlock was the key to that. “When I grabbed his Invitational held in Rochester Tech’s Clark Gym. head, he’d either have had it ripped off or let go of The Bulls took fourth as a team in this event last my legs,” Davis commented, jokingly. year, with their second stringers participating. This For Davis, it was a happy end to what had year the starters will be entered, and Buffalo would started off as a frustrating season. Similarly, have to be considered the favorite for the team title. ten The Spectrum . Wednesday, 20 February 1974 . Hockey Brockport downed hy exploding Bulls Exploding after playing five consecutive periods of subpar hockey, the Bulls scored seven goals in the third period Sunday night to whip Brockport, 10-5. Buffalo had edged Ithaca at Holiday Twin Rinks, 4-3, the previous evening. The Bulls entered the third period Sunday trailing Brockport 4-3. The Eagles, who had been drubbed, 13-1 by the Bulls last semester, had fashioned their advantage by scoring three times in a span of two and one-half minutes, with the final tally just eight seconds before the second period ended. “I wouldn’t say that our guys were shocked,” reported left wing Tom Schratz. “We just decided that we had to go out there and score goals. We always seem to play as well as the team we face,” Schratz added. The Bulls, paced by center Doug Bowman’s hat trick, scored six times in the final stanza against starting Eagle netminder Mike Raponi before he was replaced by Mike Broadhead. Buffalo outshot Brockport, 20-6, in the final period, tallying on half of their shots against Raponi. Rick Wolstenholme and John Stranges (team leader with 61 points) each tallied two goals for Buffalo. Kaminska hurt Left wing Jack Kaminska, who had scored 16 points in 17 contests this season, was lost indefinitely when he suffered a leg injury against the Eagles. Kaminska had been used on the Bulls’ fourth line and had replaced Tom Schratz on the Bulls’ first line in power play situations. Mike Kelly’s deflection with just four minutes to play Saturday night gave the Bulls the victory against the pesky Ithacans. Buffalo has now been involved in consecutive one-goal games against the Bombers after whipping Ithaca, 7-3, earlier in the season. Goaltender Bill Morant, who joined the Bombers at midseason, foiled several good scoring chances (including Rick Wolstenholme’s third period penalty shot) before Buffalo broke through. Morant’s counterpart, John Moore, stopped three Ithaca breakaways Saturday night. �I Swimminj AO INFORMATION CANDIDATES! Spectrum advertising is the most efficient method of reaching the electorate.

UUAB, the organization which schedules most of the cultural activity on campus, is having a frustrating year. It began last summer, when Sub-Board I, which funds UUAB, reduced the budget of five of its eight UUAB committees (Literary Arts, Video, Dance, Arts and Dramatic Arts). UUAB has been fighting an uphill battle in their efforts to create an aesthetically rewarding program of cultural events. In UUAB-sponsored areas, however, only film, music and coffeehouse, have any sort of workable budgets. Some of the other cultural events have met with suprising apathy from the student body. The inability of campus students to experiment with new and original art forms boggles the mind of Mr. Behnke and his organization: “There is no art on campus,” he said decisively. “The aesthetics are here, but we’re working with both hands tied behind our back.” recognition. The important thing to consider is “not trying to figure out where music was, but where it is going to go.” UUAB anticipated increased student interest in jazz this year, and their predictions appeared t<5 have been correct. The problems of lack pf student interest remain, however. “What they want on campus is what they could get off campus,” said Mr. Behnke, referring to the desire for commercially popular musicians. “1 can’t believe there is still that kind of mentality around.” UUAB is under pressure to entertain the majority of white students, which Mr. Behnke feels is totally absurd. Instead of a John Mayall, said Mr.. Bromberg, UUAB will bring a Muddy Waters because he is “the source” of Mayall music. Income or else UUAB’s film committee, although less maligned, is still pressured by many who want to see first-run films all the time. “People want ‘The Exorcist’ for $.75,” Mr. Behnke said increduously. He explained that movie-goers will not see a film simply because it received poor reviews. Once again, inadequate facilities keep many away from a popular film. The theater on the Amherst campus next year will seat a mere 250 in a theater in-the-round design. “Some people will watch the screen sideways,!’ Mr. Behnks Prime artists unavailable said. Mrr Behnke blames much of this new wave of Committees that saw their budgets drastically “conservatism” on the “post-strike backlash” of the reduced by Sub-Board 1 arc having problems of a past few years. Describing the current situation different nature. Literary Arts, functioning with a rather skeptically, he said: “Students have changed, budget of only $1000, is capable of bringing just one they do their homework now, and leave no room for good speaker to this campus. Mr. Behnke an arts atmosphere.” Students are more concerned complained that Sub-Board “was tired of seeing” with the price of discount tickets than the quality of events that were poorly attended. And yet, UUAB’s entertainment presented to them, Mr. Behnke feels. figures show that large audiences attended all 13 of Film and music arc certainly the most widely last year’s poetry concerts. The drama committee attended UUAB activities. Terry Bromberg, director cannot afford to bring a theater company, so the of the Music Committee, offered this dismal University’s Department of Theater, Arts and Dance appraisal of today’s rock culture: “Awntsand is responsible for the only bohafide arts performers are very anti-college now.

Neil Young would have appeared at this budget remains tight. “We’re trying to do more than University “if we only had the facilities,” Mr. we’re financially capable of doing,” said Mr. Behnke. Bromberg explained. Clark Hall has a maximum The core of the problem then lies with student capacity of 2000, but that is more than health and Mr. Behnke feels. UUAB has been government, safety regulations will allow. 1200 is a more realistic continually at odds with student government in what that is about “just right gym, but estimate for the Mr. Behnke calls their “traditional alienation.” He is for a coffeehouse,” said Mr. Behnke. certain that “if the government knows what is,” they could then take a serious look at Sub-Board Corrupt as Nixon priorities of the university student.

The Mr. system,” Behnke political In the future, UUAB plans to retain their agencies often promise performers to colleges and then back out of the contract in favor of a better commitment to the arts. Mr. Behnke expressed hope deal. Local promoters were also criticized for that another referendum, more articulate than the exploiting acts that were “big two years ago.” Once one voted upon last year, will pose a more serious question to the students: Whether or not the arts on the promoters corner the “top-notch acts, Canisius, Buff State and UB” have to take what is left over, this campus can be saved. Mr. Behnke welcomes work for UUAB and anyone to come and Mr. Bromberg explained. Nevertheless, UUAB will continue to bring the desperately wants feedback because “there is more musical talent ' they feel is worthy of than one kind of student.” best Solzhenitsyn Soviet author exiled; branded as ‘traitor’ by Gary Cohn Campus Editor Dissident author Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn has been stripped of his Soviet citizenship and exiled to West Germany for “systematically performing actions incompatible with being a citizen.” The action against Mr. Solzhenitsyn is the first forced exile of a Soviet political dissident since the Stalin regime, when Leon Trotsky was deported to Turkey Mr. Solzhenitsyn told The New battle between the renowned York Times Wednesday that the author and Soviet officials over deportation decree had only been publication of Mr. Solzhenitsyn’s The book, Gulag Wednesday latest shown to him a Archipelago, non-fiction morning, and added that it had of the Soviet penal been “completely unexpected.” account “Tuesday they presented me system with a grave accusation and today Prior to Tuesday’s arrest, Mr. [Wednesday] very unexpectedly, Solzhenitsyn had refused to honor they show me the decree that I a second summons from Soviet was being exiled to Germany,” said Mr. Solzhenitsyn.

Because there are no longer any huge draft calls and because the mood of the country has shifted to unfavorable sentiments toward the military, the services must now take active steps designed to reach young people eligible for military service, and convince them of the merits of enlisting. So far, this “guaranteed” by the recruiter very often fail to materialize because the candidate is not qualified. Such was recently the case when a recruiter pronounced a recruit as qualifed for duty as a stenographer and assured him the appropriate training after enlistment. It turned out that the young man was an alien and was therefore ineligible for security clearance, a prerequisite for duty as a investigation recent into stenographer. A discrepancies in the recruiting process concluded that when the military uncovers its error and recognizes that the soldier is not qualified, it fails to fulfill its commitment, yet holds the soldier in the service. The implications of the contract entered into by Army and recruit has not yet been fully examined in the courts. The few cases that have been heard resulted in decisions favorable to the military and demanded that the enlistee fulfill his contractual obligations, even when the Army had apparently neglected its part of the deal. The present-day situation is constructed so that the military is allowed a considerable margin for adjustment of its commitment while the recruit is held to the letter of his. The net result is servicemen who are shuffled into programs which they did not select, and denies access to the ones they prefer. End result: widespread dissatisfaction. The main drawing card of the military is their varied program of occupational training. Well-placed adds say WE’LL PAY YOU $288 A MONTH TO LEARN A NEW SKILL: IF YOUR JOB PL ”S YOU TO SLEEP TRY ONE OF OURS: STEADY WORK? WE’VE GOT OVER 300 GOOD STEADY JOBS. The programs do indeed exist, but their worth has been questioned by numerous outside observers. The low number of high school graduates signing up and the increasing number of lower-than-average intelligence enlistees casts a shadow of doubt on the effectiveness of those who graduate from such effort has been a failure. Failure to meet monthly quotas has resulted in a growing pressure on military recruiters to increase their effectiveness. The recruiters have responded with high-pressure sales tactics and stepped up efforts to convince young men of the desirability of a tour of military duty. Substantial quantities of literature have been distributed in an attempt to training describe the numerous vocational opportunities open to enlistees. Advertising describes the lucrative bonuses offered as rewards for enlistment, and patriotic appeals to conscience entice those who feel a military tour of duty is a national service. When all this fails as recent some recruiters have statistics indicate if has resorted to less-than-honorable tactics. During the closing days of the draft, recruiters with access to lists of those scheduled to take pre-induction physicals sent out letters employing high-pressure sales tactics, trying to take advantage of the unfortunate position of the young men. Rep. John J. Rooney (D., N.Y.) described these practices as professional “huckstering and double talk.” Mr. Rooney’s comments were in reference to the mailing of unsolicited literature to 18-year-olds, which implied that appearances at recruitment stations was part of their draft obligations. Similar transgressions were uncovered by the Central Committee of Conscientious Objectors (CCCO) at a Michigan high school, where letters programs. Training and experience in the military is were sent to graduating seniors stating that part of not necessarily an insurance of employment in the their draft obligations included the return of civilian world.

She said the original limits were “the fairest figures we could come up with” both for the candidates on tickets and for independents. But most major candidates have said privately that they will probably spend well under the smaller limits in any case, so problems should be few. The “sliding scale” of permissible spending, which the Assembly’s revisions left unchanged, was designed to give independent candidates a fair chance against tickets, which can pool resources and buy materials in quantity. Independents now have “a much better chance than they’ve ever had,” Ms. Mrozowski said. Asked whether an independent can win against a candidate on a ticket, Ms. Mrozowski replied; “It’s hard, but it’s not impossible.” Some Committee members and THE MIGHTY TACO 1247 Hertel Ave. A delicious change from pizza and subsl NEW HOURS Opens every day at 5:00 p.m. Closes Sun. thru Thurs. at 1 00 a.m Closes Fri. and Sat. at 3:00 a.m. PHONE-873-6606 Announcing the OPENING OF THE VAJRAYANA Restaurant serving Indian Cuisine 530 Rhode Island St. Ellen & Amy — hope you’re having a good time...

Realizing this, the Committee, temporarily led by Executive vice president Dave Saleh and now chaired by Janet Mrozowski, is proceeding with deliberation. Mr. Saleh said the Committee’s philosophy is that it is better that the rules be liberal and the enforcement strict in this first year. That would avoid the problems caused by unrealistically strict rules and create a precedent for future adequate enforcement. Ms. Mrozowski said she and the Committee will abide by that philosophy. D.

What wins elections? Another observer pointed out that almost invariably, any candidate well known enough to have a chance of winning is on a ticket anyway. The point is that nobody really knows what influences elections, which is another reason the Committee did not impose a Draconian election code. What is most important this year is not the specific rules, but rather 'that they are to be enforced. “I think the candidates know that the Committee will be a lot tougher this year,” said Ms. Mrozowski. So far, she said, everything is running smoothly. There have been no violations yet, in marked contrast to last year, and arrangements for machines, policing and election workers are moving ahead rapidly. Once the election campaign begins, Committee members will look constantly for violations. A rule passed at Tuesday’s Assembly meeting allows Committee members to initiate complaints on condition that they disqualify themselves from voting. The disqualification prevents Committee members from acting as prosecutor, judge, jury and hangman. Candidates, of course, have been more than willing in the past to make complaints and Ms Mrozowski is confident that this year’s candidates will continue “to watch each other very closely.” By all odds, the Committee is on its own with a tough job. It must provide serious enforcement of rules against campaign violations. In the wake of last year’s flagrant abuses, public sentiment may just be ready for it.

The use ’’ "In effect, with the all-volunteer army, we write into law the concept on one man’s money for another man’s blood... the middle class of America would not permit their sons to die in a war which they considered meaningless... It is no accident that the ardor of the campus anti-war movement cooled in lock step with the reduction of the draft and ended with the advent of the all-volunteer army. Joseph Califano, former domestic advisor to President Johnson often looking for tough and challenging job*. July 1973. 31% of the Army’s new soldiers were in the low intelligence category. In addition to the bonuses, the Army is offering a three-fold increase in base pay for a private over the days when the draft supplied the soliders. If you were drafted, you could expect to receive about S9S a week. Volunteers today receive over $300 a week. Huge pay increases In order to attract more men and supposedly better-qualified ones, the Pentagon and received requested Congressional approval to offer bonuses of $1500 to men who enlisted in any branch of the Armed Forces. When recruitment began falling short of programs expectations, Congress authorized bonuses of from $2500 to $3000 for each man who enlisted. With this increase, the percentage Re-evaluation necessary In November 1973, the Armed Forces reached their recruitment goal for the first time with 102% of the target 12,900 men needed. However, Army Secretary H. H. Callaway anticipated being still 15,000—20,000 men short in the summer of 1974. Mr. Callaway said the shortage is “not enough to reinstate the draft.” The Government Accounting Office predicts the Armed Forces will fall 10% short of Easy to go to war “By removing the middle class from even the threat of conscription, we remove perhaps the greatest inhibition on a Presidential decision to wage war,” commented Califano, President Johnson’s domestic advisor. Pointing to the investment of $6 billion in a recruitment plan, Mr. Califano noted that in order to save money, the Pentagon might move to purchasing cheaper, more efficient nuclear warheads, leading us to “cheaper nuclear ' brinkmanship." to interesting sidelight the An all-volunteer army is the problem facing recruiters. They arc kept in recruiting jobs solely on the basis of whether or not they meet their recruitment quotas. This has led to the reassignment of 107 mep in six months when they were discovered to have offered “crib” sheets to prospective they soldiers before took Army examinations, as well as manufacturing false high school diplomas. " Mr. Laird’s statement preceded the official date for the end of the military draft in the United States by six months. Congress had previously mandated that conscription cease by June 30, 1973. However, with the advent of the all-volunteer armed forces (or VOLAR, as the military abbreviate it) came the problems of meeting recruitement quotas. On the whole, the volunteer army has been a failure. The Pentagon released figures every month in 1973 regarding the volunteer army’s progress. Latest available figures indicate that for seven consecutive months, the volunteer army fell short of the necessary number of recruits to maintain an armed forces of two million men. In July 1973, for example, the Army recruited 76% of their total goal. Of the new Army recruits, 35% were black. A spokesman for the Army said at the time they were interested in “men who could do the job, not their race.” When the all-volunteer concept was initiated, the Army had set a maximum of 18% for the number of Category IV (low intelligence) men they would accept. In take about 10% of the total men needed, and none when volunteers were sufficient to meet the Army’s quota. As well as completing manpower requirements, a supplementary draft would also change the present “non-representative” status of the Armed Forces which Mr. Westmoreland “deplores.” There are presently no “affluent boys serving,” he noted. N.i of the Department of Defense budget for military salaries approached and exceeded 60%, the highest ever. But even with the higher bonuses, the all-volunteer concept is still not working. Unlike the Army and the Marine Corps, the Navy and Air Force are meeting their quotas. The Navy and the Air Force offer experiences that appear less taxing grater and often include travel, opportunities to learn technical tools, and avoidance of the duties of the '“poor bloody infantry,” as the British call it. But those who join the Army and Marines are their projected goal by this summer. Because of the anticipated manpower shortage, and as a result of a study completed six months after the volunteer concept was initiated, the Brookings Institution called the plan unprecendented and said its goals can only be met by “re-evaluating” downward the quality of the recruits, not the quantity. Former Army Chief of Staff and Commander of Vietnam forces William C. Westmoreland proposed a supplementary draft be implemented so manpower needs can be met. He claims the draft would only Reinstate draft Recruitment officers have found few high schools across the country receptive to the recruitment program within their school. Fewer than one-third of the nation’s high schools want recruitment and fewer than one-half of the country’s fathers want their sons in the military. The problem, as Mr. Califano noted, is that “by design and incentive, an all-volunteer army is structured to bring into the armed forces the poor and near-poor and to free of even the danger of the and military service middle upper-middle class young.” Interestingly, neither Mr. Califano nor any other opponent of the volunteer army have proposed an alternative solution.

Affairs Student Activities Student Affairs Student Rights �The tough lifeofa Peace Corps volunteer is not as bad as you think 9 ‘ by Linda Moskowitz Feature Editor The village of Korwaihun, in West Africa’s Liberia, where die population consists of no more than ISO people, was home to Susan Kerstein for two years, as she taught in an elementary school as a Peace Corps volunteer. Her home was made of mud brick, covered with cement. There was no running water or electricity. Nearby streams provided water, and kerosene lamps were the source of light. With no modern plumbing facilities, she also used the outdoor latrine. And although some may consider such accommodations Ms. Kerstein scarcely minimal, commented; “It’s amazing how much you can live without and really be happy. I never felt in need or in want of anything.” “You’re just never thinking Tm doing without’,” she continued, “because you soon become so involved with the people you’re living with.” After some time she preferred the hot bucket-baths, which use water warmed by the sun, she claimed, to a cold shower, which was also available to Intensive training Educational standards in the town are also much different than one would expect in America. Students, even in elementary school, can be older than the volunteer. Ms. Kerstein pointed out that in the sixth grade, the pupils ranged in age from 13-25. Children also often walk two hours to get to school, and then must perform a hard day’s work on the farm. Teachers must adjust themselves to this life-style. Intensive training was required before Ms. Kerstein could begin her actual work. Twelve to 24 weeks were spent learning the local language, cultural patterns, and the requirements of her job. Ms. Kerstein describes the language training £s “very intensive,” commenting; “People will be surprised as to hew much they can learn in a short period of time.” • Adjustment, however, may be difficult at first for some volunteers. “It is not unnatural to go through culture shock,” said Ms. Kerstein, who, as a former anthropology major, thought she’d be the last person to experience such a and phenomenon. The friendliness vivaciousness' of the villagers rather overwhelmed her at first, and this can sometimes be frightening to volunteers. “It takes a good three months to adjust,” she explained. “But once I got adjusted, I really enjoyed it.” “It’s not really until the second year that a volunteer begins to make positive contributions,” she said. “You’re just getting into the language and culture then, and beginning to know the town.” Kerstein was the only Peace Corps volunteer in her town, but was no more than 20 minutes away from other volunteers by way of public transport. Peace Corps and Expenses paid Most West African countries speak either English or French, but there arc also Susan Kerstein her. Culture shock could not afford this, and although Ms. Kentein would sometimes supply her class with materials, she herself never had more in material goods than did her students. “You’re trying to live at the level of your counterparts,” she explained. “You’re trying to work within the framework of the culture. If the kids can’t buy paper, you shouldn’t go out and buy it to show them how much more you have.”. which is a bus or pick-up truck. The money-bus which could take her to the capital city of Monrovia, nearly 300 miles away, was actually a pick-up truck which also carried goats, chickens and other animals along with its human transport on the 14-hour trip. Language emphasis One of Ms. Kerstein’s main tasks as a teacher was to teach her students English, which is now the national language of Liberia. The students learn English as a second language, since Liberia is a nation of several different tribes, each of which has its own language. The English language is considered necessary for global communication, and by adopting a colonial language, tribal favoritism and factionalism is av6ided. As compared to American schools, those in most Third World countries are radically different. The main reason is, of course, economics. Such countries do not have the money to equal American facilities and learning tools. There is also a lack of trained personnel, and more importantly, education often takes a secondary position to agriculture. Most of the poor farmers depend on their children for labor. Supplies scarce Parents are usually traditionalists, and find it difficult to accept modern Western values often taught in the schools. But an education is still a symbol of status and a thing to be proud of, and if the parents can spare their young workers, the children will go to school. Ms. Kerstein taught in a school built of mud and cement. There were few books, and these were often Western-oriented and therefore not used. There was often no paper or chalk. Copybooks could be bought for five cents, but many students 27 tribal languages spoken. Ms. Kerstein learned Gbandi, which was spoken in her village. “You are totally immersed in the culture during training, and this makes it easier to get into later on,” she said. Most training now takes place in the country in which the volunteer is placed. Health needs are all free and provided by the Peace Corps. Volunteers receive a weekly living allowance, which varies with the volunteer's location, and are also entitled to a 48-day paid vacation. Readjustment allowances are provided for the worker when he or she finishes work overseas. Ms. Kerstein speaks quite favorably about her experience and is now working recruiting ACTION’S office in in Rochester. If you are interested in her experience and wish to discuss it further with her, she will be on campus next week the Norton Union. Check The in Spectrum's Backpage for exact time and location. VISTA Why not lend a helping hand? During the past several years, volunteer programs sponsored by the federal agency ACTION have coalesced into a variety of well-defined jobs, attractive and available to many college and university students it graduation. Perhaps the best known of these programs are VISTA and the Peace Corps, of which there are currently 12,000 volunteers in the states and abroad. This week, ACTION representatives, who are returned VISTA and Peace Corps volunteers, will visit this campus to speak with interested seniors and graduate students. On February 19-21, they will be in Norton Union’s Center lounge from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. A representative will also be in the placement office at these times. Skills needed Most of the programs sponsored by Peace Corps and VISTA request applicants to have either a specific degree or a professional skill. Areas emphasized are business, architecture, )agriculture, education, law, social services, and engineering. There is a great need for doctors, nurses and other medical professionals. Generally, the volunteers are recent college graduates, though many have related work experience. Yet the emphasis of volunteer requests from overseas countries aqd communities within the states is on the ability of the volunteer to do a specific job to teach high school physics, to develop an adult education program or perhaps to train nurses or accountants. — Education The Peace Corps’ largest program centers on secondary school education. Volunteers work as teachers or substitutes, train teachers, develop curriculum and sometimes prepare textbooks. To work in such programs the Peace Corps seeks experienced teachers, supervisors and college graduates with degrees in English, secondary education, education, math, chemistry, physics, industrial arts and physical education (also French majors). Graduate degrees in science and primary education are much needed. VISTA needs primarily majors in elementary education, adult education, special education, guidance, vocational education, recreation, especially those fluent in Spanish. Neither Peace Corps nor VISTA requires a language, but, knowledge of Spanish proves more than helpful for VISTA. Health core workers Peace Corps does provide language training to each volunteer. The language training program normally consumes three months, overseas, prior to the initiation of the two-year volunteer term. The second major area in which both VISTA and Peace Corps volunteers work is health. There are positions for doctors, registered and practical nurses, dieticians, sanitarians, physical therapists, occupational therapists, home economists, health educators, dental technicians, French-speaking biology majors, and some BA graduates with an interest in health extension and immunization programs. There are a variety of positions for seniors and students with degrees in civil engineering, architecture, urban planning, construction, business, accounting, economics, and others. graduate Urban planning For example, in Sierra Leone a large group of volunteers with BA’s in secondary education and general education are implementing new science and math curriculums in secondary schools and promoting this to fellow teachers through workshops and regional meetings. In Morocco a group of Peace Corps architects and urban planners perform town planning functions related to low-cost housing, public construction, urban planning and tourism development. They collect data and train technicians and local officials. Similar programs exist in Iran, Afghanistan, Tunisia, Honduras, Peru, Malawi and other countries. In Brazil volunteer MBA’s function as business consultants to cooperatives affiliated to various agencies. They provide technical assistance in implementing effective operation of the cooperatives. Their work sometimes involves the establishment of business standards, development of courses in business management or writing articles on management techniques. Representative on campus Throughout the country VISTA projects involve socially committed volunteers in referral agencies, counseling programs, emergency food and medical relief programs, special and adult education, day care centers, dental clinics, credit unions, and cooperatives, recreation programs, community newspapers, researching housing codes, building or reconstructing low-cost housing, legal assistance, etc. Additional information and applications are available in the placement office throughout the year. Seniors or graduate students interested in programs in which they might participate should contact the Peace Corps/VISTA representative on February 19-21 at Norton Union. A representative will also be in the Placement Office these three days and at the Ridge Lea Campus student cafeteria, February 20, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. The evening of February 19 there will be a meeting of interested people in 232 Norton Union, 7:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. Friday, 15 February 1974 The Spectrum . .

"/f is no accident that the ardor of the campus anti-war movement cooled in lock step with Jhe reduction of the draft and ended with the advent of the volunteer army." —Joseph Califano, former assistant to President Johnson The Volunteer Army has been a failure. The Army has consistently fallen short of its manpower quotas, despite the increased bonuses and benefits being offered. An increasingly disproportionate number of blacks have been filling the Army's ranks since the draft ended, raising the prospect of an increasingly all-black army led by white officers, waging war for middle-class America. And although the Army is conducting a high-pressure sales campaign and spending $1200 for each new recruit, it has been accepting a disturbing number of low-intelligence volunteers, both black and white. Although the Army's original ceiling on "category fours" (low-intelligence) men was 18%, it has had to accept about 30% just to meet its monthly quotas. Only 41% of its new soldiers have been high school graduates in the last three months, as opposed to 67% in pre-Vietnam 1964. The implication is obvious: if the All-Volunteer Army is not working, a supplemental draft, or perhaps even a full-scale return to conscription, may ... be around the corner. Many in Congress are starting to reach that conclusion. Subjects like the draft, the military and the war we continue to finance in we spent $284 million in military aid to Vietnam South Vietnam this year, only we didn t spend have faded from the front pages. American bodies But a possible renewed draft will once again create a fervor in middle-class America as their sons' lives may once again be on the line. Perhaps the campus antiwar protests were motivated more by the threat of personal involvement than by deep-rooted pacifist sentiment; the moral outcries have become a faint whisper since yellow bodies were substituted for white ones. But the specter of a renewed draft should force us to ask the long-overdue crucial questions: Do we want an army of poor, lower-class, low-intelligence soldiers to wage war at the whim of middle-class politicians? Or is that preferable to a draft which forcibly coerces young men into military service? Or would a universal draft be fairer than a volunteer army which only attracts the bottom of society's barrel? These are extremely difficult moral questions, but they must be answered. For if the present volunteer system is not improved, it will not be long before the lives of all the nation's young men are once again at the mercy of an annual lottery. — — and nuclear brinkmanship In the nuclear age, what kind of Army do we want? How much conventional manpower do we need? After Vietnam, should we continue to see our Army as the world's policeman? As the maneuvering, in the Middle East war proved, we continue to view the U.S. Army as a tool of international political action against the Soviet Union. U.S.—Soviet detente has proved illusory, as underscored by both the Mideast and the Soviet dissident Aleksandr explusion of author Solzhenitsyn. The Soviets want our trade and technology while they continue their massive - military buildup. We must deny them economic assistance until they begin working for peace (they encouraged the Arabs both to fight Israel and to continue the oil embargo against the U.S.); and ease the repressive tactics and opposition to free expression most recently displayed against Mr. Solzhenitsyn, who would have been jailed and not exiled if not for Western public opinion. Perhaps using our economic pressure against the Soviets is less dangerous than trying to maintain a worldwide military equilibrium. The facts are these: the U.S. Army has 13 divisions, compared to something like 80 divisions for th Soviets. Only 15% of our 2.2 million soldiers are combat-ready; the Army is top-heavy with generals and office workers; the divisions in Western Europe are ill-trained, ill-equipped and far from ready for combat. And the result of this manpower imbalance against the USSR's 3.4 million soldiers is an increased American reliance on nuclear weapons. Avoiding all-out nuclear war is based on the principle of mutual deterrence; you will not strike first because if you do, you will also be annihilated. But the Defense Department is pushing for a whole new family of low-yield nuclear weapons, including nuclear shells for small guns and "mini-nukes" which could kill by neutron radiation. Army generals are talking of these as if they were ordinary weapons, and want them for U.S. troops in West Europian countries bordering the USSR, where U.S. nuclear bombers are already on 15-minute glert near the border. The chances of war in Europe are remote. But the possibility of these low-yield nuclear weapons provoking a nuclear war is frightening. (Remember how we felt when Soviet missiles were aimed at our head from Cuba.) Meanwhile, Defense Secretary Schlesinger wants U.S.-based nuclear bombers re-targeted at Soviet military sites as well as cities, to give the President an option to respond to a Soviet nuclear attack on our bases, without blowing up Soviet population centers and thus dooming our own cities to nuclear annihilation as well. The option for a flexible response may be desirable in the era of nuclear brinkmanship. But what all these proposals mean is that nuclear war, once inconceivable, is becoming thinkable. This is an extremely dangerous trend. Throughout human history, whenever new and dangerous weapons were invented, which mankind thought could never be used, they eventually became a common part of warfare. Now, for the first time, mankind possesses the ability to destroy the world in a matter of hours. Will the outcome be the same? The United States, for its part, must thoroughly rethink its foreign policy, the needs for its conventional Army, and its contingencies for nuclear response. We must simultaneously push for arms-conrol agreements with the Soviets to deflate the spiralling arms race. Playing around with small nuclear weapons and targeting theories may upset the balance of mutual deterrence, the only thing which insures that nuclear war remains unthinkable. Page six The Spectrum Friday, 15 February 1974 . . The 4-course load is under attack again, which means that we who cherish learning, as opposed to processing, ought to reiterate what learning is all about. First, learning is not enterable, like bookkeeping. An eminent British scholar once asked me, after I explained our credit-hours system to him, “Are you afraid to let your students into the library?” His point was obvious: given the proper structure more learning can go on outside the classroom than in it. Which is precisely why I had to explain the course-load system to him in the first place; it is unknown at Oxford and Cambridge, unimaginable at Heidelberg or the Sorbonne. For that matter, it is a system only lately introduced here in the land of cost-accounting. Harvard, Yale and Princeton (to mention but a few of our sister institutions) have a 4-course load without any “credit hours” attached to them. Sixteen courses qualifies you to graduate. I have yet to hear it argued that the education of Harvard undergraduates is thought deficient because of this. In fact the entire credit-hour system is only a contrivance developed to assist the calculations of bursars and bureaucrats. It nurtures their superstition that units are interchangeable, that knowledge is quantifiable, that the hording of “hours” is equivalent to the acquisition of insight. As such it illustrates superbly Max Weber’s famous dictum that “the rationality of the parts is the irrationality of the whole.” Those of a more brooding nature might see this equation of credits and learning as exemplifying Marx’s hypothesis that in a capitalist society means become ends in all areas of human endeavor: just as the predominance of capitalism leads men to suppose that having more means being more, so these little photocopied numerals on a transcript come to have a vitality of their own superior to that of actual experience. But surely it is the function of the University to combat rather than to reinforce such delusions, to insist that a system for recording things is not equivalent to the things recorded. Secondly, any speed-up in the educational process is counter-productive. Students should be given more, not less, concentration. The four-course load does not guarantee depth study (nothing can) but at least it does not inhibit it. The added burden of an extra course crammed into the same finite period of time only dehumanizes those who are forced into it. I do not doubt that some of the advocates of an increased load really believe that they might thereby upgrade the quality of education at our university. We should gently but firmly free them from this delusion and point out that the way to increase quality is increase standards. This is admittedly more difficult than to follow the absurd bureaucratic calculation that more abstracted units, when summed, equal more education. But it is the only intelligent reform to pursue. Students, having that elastic adaptability which has enabled humanity to survive, may well be able to live with a five or even a six-course load. But it is stupid, irrational and pernicious to succumb to the Thought patterns behind the drive to abolish the four-course load. That is the fundamental reason we must fight to preserve it. 'William Sheridan A lien Professor of History The University Machine To the Editor. Lately I’m beginning to wonder about the function of a university. It seems that breeding grounds for the American “Machine” extends even to an institution of higher education. Institutions that are supposed to look at Knowledge and Truths objectively. It seems that Knowledge for Knowledge sake is a taboo in the educational system. Department requirements just keep right on emphasizing competitiveness. The “Machine” has accomplished the goal of perpetuating itself. Students continually and traditionally fall into catagories set up by big business or other equally dangerous institutions. The “Machine” persistently gets its supply of laborers, businessmen, technicians, politicians, and ruling class all by endlessly exhorting the same values and ideals, namely competitiveness: Ergo; and then Money, Power, Sex or Status controlling the means to them. Does getting an education mean getting a job, trade, status, classification or life style? What category are you in? The “Machine” must know so it can create a lifestyle for you, and along with that life style go a certain “type” of hopes, fears, expectancies, course of action, associations, limits, — etc. The questions concerning the Colleges seem to be those of Ideas and Interests. Does the University cog help keep turning the Wheel of the American “Machine”? Do new Ideas and Interests get a right to be heard without an authoritarian body passing judgment? The University higher-ups are using their power to make decisions affecting the very growth of the nation. Manipulation no matter how subtle is still manipulation. As slowly as values and ideas change on the university level, the slower they change on the national level. The University should promote the destruction of worn out myths, stereotypes and rules, while at the same time consciensiously expanding its fields to new interests, such as are offered in the colleges. An untimely but concerned student �'I could drink a case of you, and still be on my feet.. / by Sheldon Kamieniecki Spectrum Music Critic So what can I say? Only that you out there in recession land (at least most of you) missed the finest performance ever seen at Kleinhans Music Hall last Monday night? Her majesty, the princess of music culture (Judy C. has to be the Queen), Joni Mitchell was at her people best. People swarmed and buzzed before the concert like bees flying around honey. Tom Scott and the L.A. Express came on to warm things up on that snowy, cold night. At first they sounded to me like studio musicians trying to make it. Their first couple of songs (all were instrumentals) sounded like the backround music for a detective or lawyer you know like "serious" show on TV progressive pop. The band was tight and very aggressive - perhaps a bit too aggressive. They were really into (and I do mean really) trying to please. The Coltrane number was done well, however, as Mr. Calloway hit some beautiful, mellow notes on the electric piano. Max Bennett on bass also did a terrific job that night.

The Day of the Dolphin, produced by Joseph E. Levine with director Mike Nichols, explores this notion of dolphins' speech with its various implications. The movie lacks the outmoded Vietnamese-World War III theme of the book written by French author Robert Merle. The plot is thus reduced to its most basic elements with only hints of the complicated background which was wisely omitted since this novel's espionage would have appeared najye after Watergate. Instead, the "genteel" double-bugging by alternative factions within the government seems somewhat plausible. George C. Scott portrays the politically naive, purely scientific Dr. Seville, who has achieved the impossible task of teaching the art of human language to a non-human species. The surly, anti-anything-but-research attitude independent, snugly fits Scott's character. Just as in hTs role of General Patton, nothing can get in the way of Scott's truth. On a secluded island where he conducts his secretive experiments, the elder Dr. Seville lives with his young, beautiful wife Maggie (Trich Van Davere) and a few other researchers including the "traitor" David. It is the dolphin Pha (Alpha) who from birth is taught not only to follow human directions, but to answer them back with morphemes through his spiracle a respiratory organ on his back. This film's dolphins summon nostalgia for the long-gone TV series Flipper plus the triumph of the great white whale over man in Melville's Moby Dick. The cetaceans are shown for long intervals with majestic Bachian music to accompany their smooth, sleek bodies as they dance in and about the water. It is touching to see the love of Alpha when he is introduced to his mate Bi (Beta), thus averting a growing Oedipal complex involving his "Ma" Maggie. One might wonder if Nichols wanted to create a submerged version of Jonathan Livingston Seagull. For any but the most violent mammal lovers, the footage might seem to drag. And, although the idea is fascinating, it isn't easy to understand the dolphin's bleated words, even when restricted tp — — The Duke as 'McQ' —a forgettable movie by Howie Ruben Spectrum Arts Staff John Wayne is above everyone else. He always was and he always be. Produced and directed by John Sturges and Lawrence Roman, McQ is as typical a John Wayne flick as you can get. The only difference in this one is that he plays a cop and not a cowboy. Wayne is a "bear," almost non—human. He is honest, dedicated, and loyal, while at the same time being liberal, rebellious, and his own man the Wayne trademark. The film is about drugs; so what else is new? After Wayne finds out athat his partner on the force has been murdered, he goes out and beats up a big racketeer, even though he doesn't know who killed him. Make sense to you? A drug theft then takes place. First, the big mobster and his boys are suspected. Then the police department is in question. No way, fans! It's Wayne's partner’s wife, played very unemotionally by Diana Muldaur. will — Holes in Wayne The script in McQ has so many holes in it one begins to wonder if the movie isn't an updated version of Batman. The acting is to s y the least, pathetic. Only Robert E. Mosley as a pimp and Colleen Dewhurst as an overworked barfly provide relatively good performances. Eddie Arnold, as a police chief, is normally an excellent actor. In this film he appears lost and forlorn without Lisa Couglas, his farm, and Arnold the pig. John Wayne never has been and never will be a good actor. Because of his "personality" and so-called "charisma," Wayne has been able to remain a box-office star Tor what seems like decades. Watching him on the screen, he reminds me of someone trying very hard to do a John Wayne impression. Never a sign of emotion, never a scar on his massive frame. About as emotional as Wayne gets in McQ is "How about a drink?" Superman vs. the flies Endowed with superior intelligence, brawn, and guns, Wayne pounces on and destroys other people as if they were flies. Everyone else falls short of Wayne, the superman. Like other films of this nature, McQ has numerous chase scenes. Some are quite humorous. Following a truck with heroin in it, Wayne is detoured by an exact replica and almost shoots the head off of a laundry employee. "You're nuts," he says calmly, gets back into his truck, and drives away. Harry Straddling, Jr., the director of photography, made a boo—boo. Wayne is in a house and lays some cocaine on the arm of a chair; &s he gets up from the chair, the cocaine falls off. .When Wayne returns to the cocaine, there it is, resting on the arm of the cchair. Minute, I know, but this is big-time cinema, remember, all you Wayne fans? The movie McQ is 100% John Wayne. There are thousands of Wayne lovers all over the world and this flick will satisfy their tastes. I'm sun The promotion reads, "McQ he's a busted cop, his gun is unlicensed, his methods are unlawful, and his story is incredible!"

No names are mentioned, so which President is to be sabotaged is left up in the air. I won't discuss the implications of the faction's plot. This improbable scheme rings false, leaving one with a bad taste in the mouth. No one seems to ask why talking dolphins are necessary to blow up a ship, especially ones who can verbally testify to the crime. The films of the last decade have pointed out man's inhumanity to man. The Day of the Dolphin exposes a crueler exploitation the Deceptive use of innocent creatures to bring about man's destruction. The communicative use of speech, a major characteristic of man's superiority, is transmitted to the dolphins. There are several effective sequences in the film where the voices of the characters are omitted. This raises a question of who is the more human, not to mention the more intelligent. The dolphin is said to have once been a land-dwelling creature who, for some mysterious reason, returned to the sea. There he found his rebirth. Alpha and Beta's “return to land" through man Is tragic. They believe man is good because he is smooth like themselves, and their trust of man overrides even their own instincts. Buck Henry, who wrote the screenplay, emphasized a naive innocence which disappears in the novel as the cephalans are used to kill the "friendly" homo sapiens and thus realize that man is bad. Day of the Dolphin will appeal to the sentimental. I'd recommend it for one's younger brothers and sisters. Although the idea is a little more sophisticated than the Walt Disney fare, the same emotional appeal is present. Perhaps the closing scene will bring a tear or two to the eye, if one is not too skeptical. One might leave the theater angrily, not because of the wasted money on a maudlin put-down of scientific research, but because of the likable dolphins who have been abused. — Who's inferior?? There is no deep plot or action-packed sequences, although man's ego is dealt a stunning blow as he is shown up as stupid and senseless by an "inferior" species. If you like drama and suspense, this hasn't got too much to offer; unless the rescue scenes of Rin Tin Tin of Lassie excited you, since the dolphins' attempt to save the world mimics these animals' antics. "With what porpoise?" said the Mock Turtle to Most of the movie, despite what previews may Alice. show, is involved with uncovering the secrets of "Don't you mean purpose?" said Alice.

An inkling of an idea is imptied when a huge bulldozer is caressed with "OK sweetheart, destroy!" An appropriate phrase for a machine that levels and annihilates everything in its way. If a bulldozer had a soul, what would it become? Killdozer, a made-for-TV movie from the short story by Theodore Sturgeon (shown Saturday at 8:30 on ABC), attempts to answer that question. A rock with an intelligent life force from worlds beyond sends a blue light source into a bulldozer, thus making it a rampant killer. Once again man is being destroyed by his own creation a la Frankenstein, but this time with the help of an alien. Odds could have been taken on who went next as, one by one, the struggling men were killed. Man alone can't fight his mechanical devices. The battle Maude (Bunker Kin) And then there's Maude the counterpart of AH In The Family's Archie Bunker. Maude was first introduced to the — television world as Edith Bunker's liberal cousin. The two shows are diametrically opposed in both setting and character. Maude (played by Beatrice Arthur) is a middle-aged, thrice-divorced woman who is now married to fourth husband, Walter Macy). Each program presents a new confrontation between Maude as "staunch liberal" with set ideas on how to continue being so, and a world which resists such an approach. Various issues such as racism, divorce, and remarriage have been treated in the series; many of these are related to more controversial topics (for example, sexual (played a by Bill relations, abortion, etc.) Bull-headed, sarcastic, but very much her image, Maude is an atypical television personality.

Are machines man's best friends or his worst enemies? As science fiction becomes more and more recognized' by the general population and film stars such as Charlton Heston, James Franciscus, Gregory Peck, and Yul Brynner deign to accept roles in SF flicks, many such questions will be explored for quality entertainment.

How about a Science Fiction Movie of the Week? — Ellen Klauber Donna Reed, she is not beautiful, young, patient-housewife-and-mother. or the Unlike the more recent Mary Tyler Moore, she is not entirely liberated and free. Maude is a product of years of not-always-pleasant experience. Still, she is unsinkable, perky, and ever ready to fight. Her wit (or that of the scriptwriters) glosses over what could be a very boring niche in life, creating a winning and attractive character. The result; a program which, for once, offers a portrait of middle-aged womanhood that is less than bleak. Maude is an individual. However, there are faults to be found with Maude. As in any situation comedy, there is annoying contrivance in the progression of events; it's very predictable. With the exception of Florida, Maude's maid (played by Esther Rolle), the suburban setting and characters in it are truly overdone. Yet, despite these problems, Maude is spirited, in some respects unusual, and generally worthwhile. concerned with ABC television is moving in the right direction.

Kramer has tried to present the trials in the most unique and authentic way and then, as the show progresses, leaves the answers and mysteries of what occurred up to the viewing audience.

The acting was excellent to say the least Judgment (Verdict: Incredible) director-narrator — the U.S. government of treason and espionage and sentenced to the electric chair. The TV trial was handled as authentically as possible, but was emotional enough to keep the viewer awake. Herschei Bernardi played the Rosenbergs' lawyer and Brenda Vaccaro, the role of Mrs. Rosenberg. Allen Garfield also appeared as a key witness in Throughout the TV trial one wonders; "Were they really guilty of spying for the Russians or were they merely scapegoats for the Communist-fearing Americans?" to This is Kramer's main objective and questions curiosity, raise arouse — uncertainty, and to open up our minds to controversial events which seem to fade as time goes on In the weeks to come. Judgment will be presenting the My Lai Massacre trial, a U.S. trial of a high-ranking general in the army following World War II, and Japanese others. Kramer wanted to present the Angela Davis trial, but on second thought decided that this season is just a little too soon Judgment on ABC is a provocative, controversial, and incredibly entertaining program. For those viewers who are sick of 90 years of Lucy or the one-millionth showing of Gunsmoke, Judgment will provide a nice change of pace. Director Stanley Kramer is incredible. So is his show.

Page nine �} Monsters and ghouls of classic American films by Bill Maraschiello Spectrum Arts Staff Note: This article is the third in a four-pert series on the history and significance of the horror film. Poor Jack Palance. Playing Dracula is a task I would wish only on my worst enemy. It takes more than Palance, Christopher Lee, John Carradine, or just about anyone else can muster to derail an authentic myth. "It is useless to debate whether he is a good actor or not: Lugosi was Dracula." (Clarens, Illustrated History of the Horror Film). Tod Browning directed Dracula in 1930. Its biggest defect by far is that it was based not on Brim Stoker's novel, but on a 1929 stage adaptation whose success spawned theWIm. Consequently, most of Dracula is slow, static, and nothing appears on film uncinematic that could not be communicated on the — stage. But the film does take full advantage of the potential of the opening sequences at Dracula's castle. There is no music during the film proper, but no score could be more effective than the castle's stony silence, broken only by Lugosi's voice. His ambiguous accents lend foreboding to everything he says ("Have some wine I never drink ... wine.") A ... Bride and, The scenes between the Monster and a kindly blind hermit who takes him in are simultaneously poetic beauty and satire, especially when the hermit prays in tearful gratitude and the Monster, also weeping, claps him sympathetically on the back. Whale's approach is full of irreverence, with grave-robbers bitching working conditions ("This is no life night... of the about "Children wolf howls: a What music they make!" Lugosi intones, for a murderer"); the Monster tied to pose; a crucifixion in pole by villagers the the sweeps theater. the chill of chills and "wedding night," with the The Count was the only great role of and the stroking his bride's arm, Monster, gently moment of career; that one Lugosi’s with hisses and screams. greeted greatness was enough. First Frankenstein The first Wolf Man, with Lon Chaney, Jr. as the cursed Lawrence Talbot, was more successful, especially when wizened old Maria Ouspenskaya warns us: "Even a mart who is pure in heart, and says his prayers by night/ Can become a wolf when the wolfbane blooms and the moon is full and bright." Instead of running a roil call of the well-known films I haven't mentioned. I'll just say that I passed over them for a variety of reasons. Some were painfully unclassic to the modern eye. Others were more properly placed in other genres sci-fi, adventure, ordinary suspense (I admit the distinctions are sometimes fine ones). Sadly, there are some I missed (Mamoutian's Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, said to be a masterpiece). But I hope that nobody seriously thinks that House of Frankenstein or House of Dracula is worth more than a rueful groan. Monstrous movie The free-wheeling attitude of Bride drew complaints from several sources, not the least of which was Karloff, who thought the Monster had been made "too human to be frightening." Thus, Son of Frankenstein consciously reduced the Monster to an automaton, with Karloff's final turn as the Monster not up to the level he had previously established. The lack of classic werewolf story may (Next: a glance at 1950's sci-fi; Roger explain the absence of a really Corman; Hammer Films.) picture yourself in an oil painting by Jeffrey C.

My recent indisposition (called in the medical textbooks “unemployment") has given me plenty of time to think. Just what is this life all about anyway? Is it, as some say, a trip to the grocer's? No, I just can't see my way clear to agreeing with that. Is it a drama with the whole world as its stage? No, it is a big oil painting hanging over there in the corner. Do you see that little splotch of blue there? That is you. And the little green splotch bent over the picture of a typewriter? That is me. You can see that what I am doing is writing stuff that doesn't pay anything. This stack of little green splotches no, over here in this corner.. this is a stack of money.

She promised to make a canyon, and she is still hard at work at it, after all this time!

The place is not important; let us call it "Africa." Once off the plane, he struck out on foot. Eventually, he came upon a giraffe. "Here," he said to himself, "is a horse that was born with an enormously long neck. If I could get this back to America I could make a fortune exhibiting it as a freak of nature. Freaks of nature are always good investments." He bought the giraffe from a native for a Kodak camera. (The native was too smart to tell the man that he didn't own the giraffe, that it was a free agent.) He took the giraffe back to America, smuggling it aboard the jet with his luggage. He began to exhibit the giraffe as a freak of nature, but was dismayed when a scientist from a local university told him that such creatures were as common in Africa as horses are in America. "Why is it," he asked himself, "that all horses in Africa are born with long necks?" This set him to thinking, and he finally figured out that he should pay the scientist (Dr. A H. Arborn) not to say anything. And that man's name was Charles Darwin. Sometimes I think that life is just a dream. (Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily.) Other times I think that a dream is life.

I �w Isaac Singer: ofPolish shtetl and traditional old-country tales by Michael SllverMatt Contributing Editor Isaac Belshavis Singer is a small man with very white hair. There is a Jewish way of growing small, it comes with age. As my grandmother grows older, she grows shorter; my grandpa grew very thin and small. Singer is compact, foxy. He shakes hesitant small in that way fingers to modulate assertions. He brings jaw and neck forward to listen carefully. He is seventy, I think, though before he arrived someone had told me he was eighty and the day after he left someone else said ninety-two. He is a sprightly fellow; he dances somewhere between those ages. a modern literary school of haters, of writers who use language viciously, of writers who remember a holocaust physical or spiritual, historical or familial, whose fiction lives among charred bodies. Pogrom or dinner table in Brooklyn, hiding from the Nazis or hiding from the Mom has there really been a difference in. modern Jewish fiction? — - Jewish writers I'd only recently begun to read his work. I think I'd been afraid to read another Jewish writer. Philip Roth, I find, offers a kind of hate I fear and know too well. Bellow's Mr. Sammler’s Planet is another hater's book, only here the hatred springs from fear. Malamud, I've never read. In Singer's work I find the fictive stuff I love; ghosts, dybbuks, obsessions; the stuff I find in my grandmother's stories, the fascination in nineteenth century fiction, the transfixing power of folktales. Singer tells stories; of the Polish shtetl Manhattan cafeterias, two or three are about the Jews in Argentina ("Have you read my story 'Hanka' in this week's New Yorker?" Singer asks. "I think it is one of my best.") He writes about Polish Jews, he doesn't write about American Jews, he doesn't understand them well enough. ("Aren't there any goys in your novels?" Dwight "They're Macdonald asked. "Oh, there are goys, but for comic relief," Macdonald finishes off the sentence. "They are minor characters," Singer smiles. The issue is —" closed.) And so, though I'd only read his very recent work, I wanted to meet I.B. Singer. He is a writer who succeeds in bringing Jewish tradition to his work, he is idiomatic but his language is crystalline, never awkward. I had thought that being a Jewish writer meant being allied to Dinner with Singer I spoke to members of the Jewish Student Union who were bringing Singer to the campus and arranged a dinner with him. Invited to the dinner were Dwight Leslie Fiedler, Ruthven Todd and a few of my friends. The dinner was "officially" an opportunity for Singer to meet members of the English Department. Singer is a vegetarian. He told us that he is against "even human slaughter," thought of what he'd said, and amended his phrase to "humane slaughter". Kosher butchery is butchery too. We brought him to the Blacksmith Shop, Buffalo's makeshift answer to a vegetarian restaurant. Heavy snow, Buffalo's makeshift response for climate. We went to the University Manor to get Singer. When I enter Singer's motel room he is already speaking to Dwight Macdonald; "You are teaching Poe. A genius. In America, they invented him, they do not think he is a genius, but where I come from he is a genius." Singer says he doesn't like the poem about the crow. Over-rated. Questioning reveals he means "The Raven" and Dwight agrees whole-heartedly. Over-rated. These two are clearly friends. "If I had power," Singer says, "I would give you a medal for teaching Poe." He stops and seems to consider the idea ridiculous. In the tone of voice that vocally approximates a shrug, he adds: "But I have no power." I am introduced. Singer latches the door of his motel room and turns to us. He smiles impishly. "Let us go down my way. This is the door the demons use." He motions us to follow and he leads us into the bathroom. No door. He turns around. "I am thinking of a different place. Come." He leads us back to the door, unlatches it. He shrugs. "The demons will follow us." In the car there are five. In the front seat my friend Terry, sitting next to her Owight Macdonald. In the back seat, a tight squeeze, me, Isaac Singer and Ruthven Todd, the poet. The snow allows no vision but, occasionally, a lampost's light. Singer is to speak in the Tillmore Room in two hours. "You will agree with me, he says, "If I get an audience tonight, there is a God. Laughter. ‘I turn to Singer. "Mr. Singer, I read your most recent book, A Crown of Feathers, and I think it is your best. It made me float." I am speaking, I am aware, in the way I speak to my grandparents. Slowly and without any assumption. Clearly Singer knows the name of his book, I needn't tell him. "My young friend," he says, "I wish I, too, could float If I could float, after my speech I could float home." Everyone laughs and I feel foolish. Practically my last speech for the evening. At dinner. Singer speaks about fiction. He doesn't like The Painted Bird. Too much violence. When a novel has that much violence and sensationalism it is something else, not a novel. Not aesthetic. He dislikes solipsistic fiction. He does not beliefe a writer should write about another writer. Or about famous people. Even Tolstoy, he says, could not describe Napolean. The novel is about people, not about masses. He loves Madame Bovary but Flaubert fails in Salambo. Babel's "Taras Bulba" is a disappointment. The novel and the story are about individuals. You cannot write about the incineration of masses, it is too strong, not artistic. m Originality someone "I agree with you on that about Wiesel, said "If you will agree with me about Wiesel, I will agree with you about anything." Elie Wiesel writes only about " the holocaust. Although Singer is a writer whose stories are apparently simple, I realize that he is a careful craftsman who understands his subject and his limitation. When he was young, he said, he loved Aleichem and wrote a Sholom Aleichem story, he loved Knut Hamson and wrote a Knut Hamson story. "Now I am an old man, I write my own stories." Singer's wit, his intelligence, his naive pleasure in the things around him made melting him thrilling. There must be a God, at least for Singer: when he entered the Fillmore Room, there was an audience of five hundred to applaud his remarkable speech. >tere« $ens by Mark Tobak "best buy" items.

The intro to "Taxi" was greeted by a thunderous round of applause. Her rich, full, high-pitched voice filled every corner of the hall. She displayed tremendous control over her voice throughout the concert as her vocal chords changed octaves and she accepted them warmly. "All I Want" and "Blue" were done with tremendous feeling. David Crosby said once that Joni Mitchell is the best songwriter he has ever known. "A Case Of You" demonstrated her writing talents as it also proved her ability to reach high notes without the slightest sign of strain or crack in her voice. Scott accompanied her a number of times on flute, recorder, clarinet and sax. Joni told an interesting story about her "get back to nature" days. She described the cabin in which she was living before her house in the woods was completed. Joni said that she always kept three chairs in her cabin; one for herself, one for company and one for society. Her grand finale was "Raised On Robbery," and what an amazing number — it was. The combination of her rythmic guitar-playing, her sweet, rich voice and her vibrant energy were both musically captivating and totally mesmerizing. Like the completely engrossed audience, I was in awe throughout the entire concert. She came back for an encore after the deafening standing applause. It was a well-deserved ovation for a superlative and talented live performer. Thank you, Joni. 'Maraschino Cante/oi A moody visual barrage of Eye Feastin 'pulps magnificent student dances galore at the Duck Question: What's a Maraschino Cantalope? From Pants a Plenty to Books a lot. That's the story of the conversion of a spacious store across the street from campus. The name of the place is The Bearded Duck and what they've got to offer you can't refuse. First of all they have every kind of comic book you'd imagine from the ancient pulpathons of old like ‘The Human Torch" to the bloody adventures of Corian the Cimmerian. Not only that, they've also got a1 complete line of current magazines ranging from Wrestling World to Ms. Tony Anello runs the place and he says that he'll stock anything we want. All we have to dp is let him know there is a demand for it. So ifin ya get bored with school, and who ain't, truck on over and feast an orb-load on the pretty pictures. The only thing I can't seem to figure out is why they wanted to call it The Bearded Duck why not the Bearded Armadillo, or the Bearded Goose, or the Bearded but why a Duck???? The answer is simple; It’s what an elephant puts on his hot fudge sundae. It was also an evening of recent (and student-choreographed generally student-danced) work presented by the Theater department on February 7—10. It was also magnificent. Maraschino Cantalope was a series of dance offerings involving various numbers of dancers and types of music. It was not something out of Basic Dance 101. It was done professionally beautifully. and Difficult positions were held gracefully without wavering, the actions were-precise but smooth, and the choreography was excellent. A short displayed segment a "Greek-flavored" dance that would even have made Anthony moods. The moods were enhanced by the music (or lack of it), Quinn envious. occasional special effects, and a pieces fantastic lighting arrangement.

It was a visual barrage of grace and beauty. The choreographers were Wendy Biller, Janice Birnbaum, Francis Maraschiello, Susan Rosen, and Leslie Satin, They and the dancers deserve considerable acclaim for their excellent work. The intrinsic beauty of Maraschino Cantalope was that you didn't have to know anything about dance to appreciate it. The general opinion of the sellout audience was: "I can't say I understood the symbolism, but I know what I like and I liked this. It was beautiful."

Blackjack, roulette, dice and other casino games were to be featured. In essence people would be gambling for money, which technically is illegal. However, these overt types of gambling are carried out by many churches and other non-profit organizations (which include S.A. IRC). The money raised was going to the music room to purchase a new stereo (the old one was stolen). The administration (Ron Stein, student legal services; Ray Becker, food service; Cliff Wilson, Rick Scholkopk and Pete Gulley from housing) all felt that it was in violation of Buffalo Laws, State Liquor Authority regulations and University rules. Investigative work done by Student Rights Co-ordinator, Cliff Palefsky revealed, (after speaking to the Buffalo police) that as a rule they “look the other way” during these events and would do so for Monte Carlo Night. The State Liquor Authority concurred and would do the same. The administration, however, would not budge from their obviously ridiculous position. If everyone else would have “looked the other way,” why not the University? j) £ i & , — Malcolm Kuim The Spectrum 1974 Howie Kurtz — Janis Cromer Dave Simon Gerry McKeen Advertising Manager Production Supervisor Joel Altsman Manager — — — The Spectrum is served United Press International, College Press The Service, The Los Angeles Times Syndicate, Publishers-Hall Syndicate, Chicago Tribune-New York News Syndicate and the Intercollegiate Press by Bureau.

Somewhere under the of charges, countercharges, lies, morass and ego-tripping, distortions, the real circulation-expanding yellow journalism, issue has been obscured. Throughout the wearisome rhetoric, the role and meaning of education in modern society has been evaded by personalizing the issues; and making it a plaything for third-rate aspiring campus politicos. The question has nothing to do with grades, course hours, course descriptions, instructor credentials, or the division of power between equally myopic factions it has to do with our society’s conception of education. People go to college to “get” an education the assumption being that education is like a loaf it is of bread. Thus education is “gotton” affirmed by the diploma, and recognized by society in the form of appropriate status and income. Education in this conception divides life from school you learn in school, but as soon as class ends, so does “education.” Education from kindergarten to graduate school thus is divorced from life, made a burden that is imposed by society and parents upon an unwilling child. Education is measured by the game of credit hours, quality points, standardized exams, reports, and other measurable quantities. This type of education results in all sorts of deceitful tactics ranging from plagarism to courses, that are seen as an instant A, rather than as an education. Education actually is the process that accompanies the individual from birth to death; it cannot be measured. It includes school but it is also various jobs, late-night raps, realization of “wrong” acts, and all of the other facets that comprise one’s life. Education in the formal sense is a valuable tool, if used in a comprehensive manner, to further enlarge the boundaries of maturity and understanding. It is part and parcel of life; it cannot be separated or ignored. Henry Adams, in his famous autobiography The Education of Henry Adams described his composed of life as a process of education both the formal and informal methods of learning. Life according to Adams, was “education,” and school a tool and methodology to be utilized in order to comprehend facets that add to one’s vistas. The debate over the Colleges is actually one aspect of the division between formal and informal education. The Colleges, like many other institutions before it, have attempted to remove the division between the two branches of education and to make so-called institutional or formal learning as enjoyable and exciting as informal learning. Thus many of the courses are conducted by “relevant,” deemed “nonqualified” instructors, graded contrary to the rules of formal education, and taught by formal education calls that techniques unstructured. This is not to say that all College courses are like this, only that the aspects that have been denounced have emphasized these points. It is truly unfortunate that there is definitely — gear.” — 2'//^ — to me that these fellows are acting obnoxious children. They are denying approximately 900 people an enjoyable evening and a stereo to the music room, for no good reason. The argument of illegality is totally absurd as the outside authorities will not bother us. I tried to explain this to Mr. Stein, but he just reminded me that the organizer (myself) would face being taken to court, expelled, and fined, all of which he would recommend and prosecute. Faced by these overly severe consequences and mamouth hassles, Monte Carlo Night, unfortunately has been cancelled. 1 would now like to thank all those people who were going to work as dealers, croupiers, cashiers, etc. for the time and effort they put in. Maybe there will be a Monte Carlo Night in the future when these “children” of the administration grow up and “get their heads in Managing Editor •t 2 — It seems Friday, 15 February 00 00 •i — like Vol. 24, No. 55 1 £ To the Editor: Business am?

I oeiCR SAIP (T lf5 (JOT MV I josr WAUIEP IS fc some truth to the charges that have been leveled at some of the Colleges. The largest proportion of late grades come from the Colleges, many of the courses are utilized as gut courses, many of the instructors are incompetent and couldn’t teach my dogs to excrete, and many of the courses have no structure, no framework, no pattern of discovery. Many courses range from idiotic to the absurd. I might feel there is merit in most of the courses, but a course like “The Lev Course” does make me wonder about the ability of some of the people in College E. These statements are based on my own experiences, people that I know who have taken College courses, and my own attempts to create a learning experience within the classroom. You don’t need a Masters to teach, you really don’t need any degree to teach, but you do have to understand that teaching is an art, a desire, a relationship nourished by time, work, and consideration. Many students, twisted by early learning experiences, take advantage of courses that are geared to learning in an informal manner. The Colleges have been a victim of these students, plus the dogmatic and myopic defenders who cannot admit that the Garden of Eden does contain snakes and apples. The Colleges are admirable in what they attempt to do, yet due to the division between formal and informal education, they face a precarious existence. The Colleges are ensconced in a system whose values, goals, methods and techniques are antithetical to those of the Colleges. Both are dedicated to learning, to the concept of education yet they are defined in different terms. There is no solution, but the Colleges should not be destroyed, they should not be diluted, they should not become part of the fiefdom of official administration, yet the Colleges must cleanse themselves. If the goal is to combine “education” with life, then the Colleges can instruct and guide a person who wishes to learn and grow intellectually. Yet the division between education and life is so strong that the Colleges are perceived as a threat to the system that perpetuates that difference. If the Colleges wish to survive, then they must purge themselves of those parasites that are sucking at their vitality. Structure, goals, plans, and other manifestations of institutional learning are helpful if used properly. Those instructors that use the Colleges for ego trips, paychecks, or in order to promote a various idea hurt the majority of the courses that contribute to education. Of course these problems are not, endemic to the Colleges, but in their attempt to combine education and life, the Colleges have fostered many abuses. Save the Colleges. Yet remember what education should be it is not a free A, nor is it a weekly rap session in which a student gets four credits. If some of the more controversial courses are dropped and their students were really into learning, they would continue the course without but realize its the credits. Save the Colleges but understand why flaws. Save the Colleges but you want them saved. Save the Colleges purge and cleanse their weaknesses from within. — - — — — Friday, 15 February 1974 . The Spectrum . Page fifteen �Legal Dope by Peter Califano One day my roommate. Bob (the names have been changed to protect the guilty) found out he had to leave Buffalo due to an emergency at home and told me that he would be gone approximately three months. I reminded Bob that he still had a legal obligation to our lease and would thus be required to pay rent for the three months that he would be gone. Bob understood this and the next day he found a subletter, Tony, who was a close friend of his. I then questioned Bob on whether he had put the three-month subletting agreement into writing. Bob reassured me that Tony was a close and trusted friend and therefore there would be no trouble in getting the rent paid. But I insisted, since I had also signed the lease and thus had an obligation to it, and I wanted something signed between them for my protection. After a brief debate on this subject. Bob agreed to draw up a simple written contract. The contract between Bob and Tony is called an express contract since it is an agreement that is expressed in words, writing or speech About two months after Tony had signed the contract, he came to me with surprising news. Tony revealed to me that he was moving out for some odd reason. When I questioned him about the rent for the next month, he told me that he couldn’t afford it and saw no reason to pay it since he was moving out. I then went to Legal Aid and told them the entire story. They informed me of Tony’s legal obligations and the possible legal recourses that were available to me if Tony remained obstinate. I then approached £ony and disclosed all of my information calmly but firmly to him. After a few days of bad feelings, Tony finally agreed to pay his portion of the rent. Of course, the agreement between Bob and Tony in the above situation is called a contract. Unless a statute requires a particular form, contracts may be oral or written. EVen if it is not required as in the case above, there are many situations where it would be sensible and very desirable to reduce an oral contract into a written one. Although purely speculative, the fact that Bob had a written contract with Tony, probably saved us a trip to Small Claims Court which would have been our only legal recourse ifTony refused to pay his rent. When a person decides to form a simple, written contract, there are specific content requirements to be met in writing up the body of.the contract. They are: 1. Date and place of makihg the contract 2. Names of the parties. 3. Obligations of each party, including the subject matter and conditions to be met. 4. Any specific requirements or conditions such as- alterations, repairs, and notification of any change in address. 5. Signature of the party who assumes the obligation. This is the “party to be charged.” One should always be sure to have contracts that are required by the Statute of Frauds to be in writing, are in fact written and include all terms. But whenever possible, seek the advice of a lawyer in the of an important contract. This advice and other simpler questions can always be answered at the Legal Aid Clinic in Room 340 Norton Union. Although it.takes some time and your friends might seem taken back at your suggestion “to put it in writing,” simple written contracts provide insurance for the protection of innocent parties when an agreement becomes “questionable.” Simple written contracts can ultimately save time and aggravation; after all, there are a lot of more finer things to occupy our time than with hassling. 309 Townsend at 2:00 p.m. Open to the public Sponsored by: Councilon International Studies w the evolution is coming! returns the body to But don't hold your a natural posture and induces a more breath waiting.

Check local radio �Soviet Union Peaceful relations with other nations by mutual cooperation by Paul Krehbiel Spectrum Staff Writer Editor’s note: Paul Krehbiel recently returned from a two-week trip to the Soviet Union in January. He was one of 34 young people from the United States who participated in a tour sponsored by the National Council of American-Soviet Friendship. In this final article of a three-part series, Mr. Krehbiel examines the Soviet Union and its relations with other countries and peoples. The Soviet Union feels that the Soviet-American summit talks have helped in easing world tensions to avoid the possibility of nuclear war. The Soviets also envision the developing of peaceful relations among countries with opposing social systems, as well as mutual cooperation on problems that concern all people, such as the preservation of nature and the eradication of widespread diseases. In the area of cultural exchanges, our gfoup Was among the "90,000 foreign youth visitors to the Soviet Union each year, while about 70,000 Soviet youths travel abroad. The strengthening of human bonds strengthens the bonds of peace between nations. Since the Soviet Union made such tremendous human and material sacrifices in the war against fascism, with deaths totaling 20 million, they made it clear that they highly valued world peace. In Leningrad, we were shown pany buildings that had been destroyed by the Nazis, and many streets where the dead piled up for months. We were told that practically every family in Leningrad suffered a loss in the war. They fully realize the incalcuable losses that would result from a nuclear war today, and have pushed for a ban on nuclear weapons in the United Nations since its first session in 1946. This socialist consolidation is carried out through trade with other socialist countries, which comprises almost two-thirds of Soviet foreign trade. The Council for Mutual Economic Assistance (CMEA) links Bulgaria, Cuba, Czechoslovskia, German Democratic Republic, Hungary, Mongolia, Poland, Romania and the USSR in mutual economic aid. With only 10% of the world’s population, this economic community produces nearly one-third of the world’s industrial output. The USSR also trades with and gives aid to the Democratic Republic of Vietnam (North Vietnam), and the Korean People’s Democratic Republic (North Korea). cooperation This is extended the through development of socialist integration, which integrates the economies of the socialist world. This presumes an the spheres; through ideological struggle; and by renouncing the use of war. The Soviet Union sees the major contradiction in the world today as between imperialism (capitalism expanded on a world scale), and socialism; they clearly oppose capitalism and imperialism, and firmly believe in world socialism. But socialism isn’t going to be “exported” to any country, because socialism can only develop through the efforts and desires of a country’s own citizens, particularly its working-class. ’ Classless society seen Their foreign policy calls for the consolidation of the socialist world and the building of conditions for the development of communism: a classless society of the future, where all people will consciously live by the maxim, “To each according to his needs, from each according to his ability.” countries and the United States. International trade is encouraged by the USSR because it will aid the economies of many countries, including their own; they believe the socialist mode of production will show, through example, that socialism is more efficient and beneficial to serving human needs. In the struggle against colonialism and imperialism, the Soviet Union supports and gives aid to national liberation movements in developing countries. Of special importance is the support and aid given to the Vietnamese in their struggle against U.S. domination. Soviet students in Moscow told me there were Vietnamese students studying at Moscow University, learning skills that will help their country. I was also told that the Soviet people held rallies in support of the Vietnamese, and that workers would volunteer to work overtime on days off to supply Vietnam with additional supplies. Helping national liberation Le Duan, First Secretary of the Vietnam Workers Party, said in the Soviet Union in July 1973: ‘The Vietnamese people will always remember that Soviet workers, collective farmers and intellectuals gave all the warmth of their hearts, and their creative labor to making For ten years weapons and other products for Vietnam now, Soviet specialists have been working in all parts of North Vietnam, ignoring hardships and privations, helping the Vienamcse people with all their hearts in construction of a new life.” The USSR also gives aid to the national iberation movements in the African nations of Guinea, Angola, and Mozambique others, in their struggle for independence. Demands that the Portugese colonialists and the racist regimes in South Africa and Rhodesia be removed have been backed by practical aid to the popular ... movements. One of the most explosive spots in the world today is the Middle East. The USSR supports the U.N. resolution 242, passed in 1967, calling for Israel to return to its pre-1967 war borders. While defending the existence of Israel, they oppose her military policies against the Arab people and the occupation of Arab land. Capitalism vs. socialism The foreign policy of the Soviet Union is based on the Leninist principles of peaceful co-existence between states with differing social systems, equality of nations, and struggle against colonialism, imperialism, and all forms of national oppression. Under the policy of peaceful co-existence, the territorial rights of all countries arc to be respected, and differences between nations are to be resolved through the social, economic and political .dairy plants ih Guinea, with the industries being owned and controlled by the recipient countries. The USSR, also has trade agreements' with most Western European What imperialism? Support and aid has gone to Cuba, and to Chile under Allende, as well as to other developing countries in Latin America. Support is going to the persecuted Chilean people, but all relations have been cut with the military dictatorship. Muscovites greet the envoys from the Democratic Republic of North Vietnam. international division of labor, whereby one socialist country produces a great amount of a certain product to be exchanged with other socialist countries which produce a great amount of other products. Aid to developing countries We were told that Hungary produces a great amount of busses for mass transit, so the USSR doesn’t produce many. Socialist countries jointly participate in drafting forecasts, in planning research, and in the actual production and exchange. Work brigades from other countries are working in the USSR and vice-versa. The Soviet Union also encourages economic cooperation with developing countries. Among other things, Soviet assistance goes towards steel production in India, power plants in Egypt, oil production in Iraq, and Because of their relations with many foreign countries, the Soviet Union is sometimes criticized as being the same as the United States: dominating smaller countries, and even being imperialistic. Cuban Prime Minister Fidel Castro said at the Conference of Non-Aligned Nations meeting in Algeria in September 1973: “How can the Soviet Union be labeled imperialist? Where are its monopoly corporations? Where is its participation in the multinational companies? What factories, what mines, what oil fields does it own in the underdeveloped world? What worker is exploited in any country of Asia, Africa or Latin America by Soviet capital? The economic cooperation that the Soviet Union provides to Cuba and many other countries comes not from the sweat and sacrifice of the exploited workers of other peoples, but from the sweat and efforts of the Soviet workers . . . without them, the end of colonialism and the balance of power in the world that favored the heroic struggle of so many peoples for their liberation, wouldn’t have been possible.” uu HEY BOZO'S STEAKS Friday February 22 (Sat. , • & Sun.)

The Eagles extended a slim 4544 margin at intermission to a commanding 6245 edge, and Staff Writer The cage Bulls extended their losing streak to six with a 103-89 loss to Brockport State in the “friendly” confines of Clark Hall Tuesday night. The win ran the Eagles record to 12-8, while Buffalo dropped their 19th in 21 decisions, including three losses in Clark. The Bulls have dropped all but two games at home in the past three yeart. “We got beat bad. Nobody for us played as good as he could play,” assessed Bulls mentor Leo Richardson. In contrast, Buffalo assistant coach Bob Case observed, “Every kid for them, except Gilliam, played above his head. We’ve seen them play two or three times before, and this is the best they’ve ever played.” coasted in from there. Despite a definitive 5643 board advantage, which included 17 missed tip-in attempts, the Bulls were constantly outmuscled and outfinessed by the quicker Brockport front-liners. Buffalo center Mike Jones, who had his finest offensive night of his career with 23 points (10-19 from the held) and 14 rebounds, was constantly burned by Eagle centers Willie Sanders and Kevin Williams. “Jones didn’t play as good as he can play,” observed Richardson. “Everyone he covered was effective for Brodcport.” Williams was particularly effective coming off the bench for the visitors, pulling down eight rebounds, The lack of defense for the Bulls was again in evidence as their opponents surpassed the century mark for the fourth time this season. Turnovers and fouls plagued both teams, as 48 fouls, including 12 offensive fouls, were whistled, $nd 45 turnovers were commited. Buffalo threw the ball away 15 times en route to 24 turnovers. Particularly puzzling were seniors Ken Pope and Rayfield Goss, who were counted on for stability for the young Bulls. The senior back courtmen combined for half of the Bulls turnovers, including key miscues whenever the Bulls would come back to within six points (four times in the second half)“They were just too quick for us,” recounted Case. “I just can’t figure out why they haven’t got a better record than they have.” “They came to play,” said Richardson. Our kids just didn’t think they could play. Even though we’ve been telling them all week they could play, but they just didn’t believe it.” The Bulls face a tough Gencsco squad tomorrow night, and unless they decide they can indeed play basketball on the same court as their weaker State University sisters, it could again be a long night for Buffalo basketball fans.

The breakthrough climaxed a citizens-action effort by 33 students, spanning three semesters of a task force seminar taught by Beverly Paigcn. Information released Beginning in January 1972, the first of these classes compiled a list of companies which were producing an excessjye amount of particulates (dust and sulfur dioxide). They discovered that the coke ovens at Bethlehem Steel, Allied Chemical and Donner Hanna accounted for 23% of Erie County’s total air pollution. Bethlehem was creating 1800 approved which guaranteed that information given by industries to Air Pollution Agencies would be made public. Soon afterward, Rachel Carson College published an unprecedented list of 100 of the major polluters in Erie County. “Each year, the Eric County Air Pollution Agency puts out an annual report,” Dr. Paigen said. ‘This was the first time ever that the public was actually made aware of how much [pollution] each company was putting out.” ‘Dirty dozen’ Directing its assault toward the “top twelve” companies, the Task Force soon determined that nine of the “dirty dozen” were already in the process of building or planning anti-pollution devices, and decided to direct its efforts toward cleaning tip the coke ovens at Bethlehem, Allied and Donner Hanna. ‘‘The existing pollution law pertaining to coke ovens was so weak it wasn’t even a law,” Dr. Paigen contended. “It permitted the companies to put out so much pollution that they weren’t even putting out as much as they were allowed,” she said. As the investigation intensified, the group uncovered evidence that the three companies had annually bypassed" the Slate of New York’s hearings on air pollution by testifying that the available technology was not sophisticated enough to reduce After interviewing experts in the steel industry and corresponding at length with the Federal Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), several of the students initiated a public hearing and testified that existing technology could be harnessed to make the air cleaner. Successful efforts, they reported, had already surfaced in Germany and Japan. pollution. tons of wastes annually, while Donner and Allied were producing 300 tons each. Before laying eyes on any pollutions statistics, however, the Task Force had to battle against an Erie County Law which prohibited the release of such data, despite the existence of a federal statute which made it public information. After successfully arguing their case before Erie County’s Air Pollution Agency and Management Commission, the students went directly to the office of: County "Executive Edward Regan. Largely through his efforts, the group was able to present its case before the Environmental Task Force of the County Health Department. As a result, a new regulation was Final nudge Again the students prevailed. A hearing officer from the State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) ruled against the coke companies, and within three months, new regulations went into effect mandating Bethlehem, Allied and Donner to submit plans for constructing anti-pollution devices by October of that year. “1 think the state wanted to pass a new law about coke ovens but we were the type of citizen pressure that gave them the final nudge to do it,” Dr. Paigen said. “We dug into a lot of information they didn’t know about, like how the stuff coming out of coke caused cancer. We found medical records that employees at the three companies had the highest cancer rate in the entire county. I would say that the law was changed as a direct result of our testimony at the hearing,” Dr. Paigen added. .� .The matter was far from resolved, however. Several months later in February 1973, the Task Force .contacted DEC and learned that the companies had still not submitted plans for pollution control.

But the tragedy of the Vietnam-era continues to be a stark reality for vast numbers of young Americans who refused participation in the war in Indochina They were forced into federal pententiaries, forced underground, or into exile in Canada or Sweden. Today, there are hundreds of thousands of draft resisters, military deserters and Vietnam veterans with less-than-honorable discharges whose lives depend on our I.F.

Because the Selective Service is issuing no longer induction notices the problems of these men appear to be isolated instances that will not be repeated. In fact, the entire mechanism of the Selective Service is still intact and capable of being put back into action as soon as Congress grants the right to issue induction orders.

Such a system was abandoned two years ago when pressure from other student organizations prompted the administration to delete the fee from the bill. However, collection of the fee by the Bursar is hoped to “assure adequate funding for activities and services at 3 separate regions,” a very high priority for IRC. Tighter financial controls were also suggested for IRC. To increase financial responsibility and accountability, the report recommended that the IRC treasurer work closely with Lcn Snyder, vice president for Auxiliary Enterprises, to implement regular bookkeeping procedures. Autonomy maintained Closer working relationships in activities planning with Student Association and UUAB are recommended, although the report cautioned: “IRC must be autonomous to best represent the dormitory community.” IRC should actively seek input front the resident advisors (RA’s) who are in day-to-day contact with the problems of dorm students, the report also stated.

Complete evaluation The Task Force was initiated two weeks ago when IRC called for a complete evaluation of all its operations. Chaired by former IRC president Gary Cohn, the meeting was attended by IRC officers and reps, House Council officers, interested dorm residents and former IRC officers. At that time, rumors of an IRC disbanding were laid to rest and committees were formed to investigate certain problem areas and suggest resolutions. Those committees included: financing, IRC structure, Amherst campus, activities, dorm facilities, security and food service. Additionally, a complete evaluation and future plan for IRC Businesses, Inc. is being carried out by Sanford Kimmel, a former member of the IRCB, Inc. board of directors. IRCB, Inc. currently operates two cooperative grocery stores, a travel bureau, a refrigerator and bicycle rental service and radio station WIRR. Thursday’s meeting will be held at 9 p.m. in Goodyear Cafeteria. All interested dorm residents are urged to attend. The Inter-Residence Council (IRQ will meet Thursday to take steps for the restructuring and expansion of the organization. The preliminary report of the IRC Evaluation and expansion task force will serve as the starting point for the sweeping revision of IRC and its non-profit service corporation, IRC Businesses, Inc. (IRCB). The task force report recommended a restructuring of the IRC Executive Committee, replacement of dorm House Councils with broader-based Area Councils, and expansion of the services provided through IRCB, Inc. Specifically, the report suggested that four IRC officers President, vice president for Activities Planning, vice president for IRC Businesses, Inc., and treasurer be elected each spring and that IRC representatives, and Area Council officers and reps be elected in early fall. — — Pollution victory against a corporation, the group chose to sue the state of New York for not enforcing the new law under the provisions of the Federal Clean Air Act of 1970. Sixty days before the suit was to have begun, the Task Force filed a letter of intent to sue with both the EPA and DEC. As a result, the state immediately took steps to enforce the law. A compliance schedule was formulated, outlining how and when anti-pollution construction would get underway. Before the agreement became legal, however, the Rachel Carson students insisted on another public hearing so they could scrutinize what had transpired between New York State and the three companies. Said Dr. Paigen; “We wanted to know what was in that order, and we wanted to have our say as to whether it was a good agreement.” As expected, the compliance schedule was found to be blatantly unsatisfactory. “We thought the coke companies were getting away with murder,” Dr. Paigen asserted. ‘The state was literally selling out and several loopholes had been written into the document which were unacceptable.” Deciding to concentrate its efforts against Bethlehem Steel, the major polluter, four students from the Task Force testified against Bethlehem at the spring hearing. They attacked the inadequate use of available technology and the ambiguity surrounding the timetable for anti-pollution construction. ‘The compliance schedule only specified a vague ending date June, 1977” said Dr. Paigen, “so by law the companies really didn’t have to do a thing in between. If they failed to build adequate pollution controls, they would be given three more years to ‘try again’.” — ‘Atrocious’ To prove that the State’s lawyers who had negotiated the agreement “did not know anything about coke companies,” the Task Force again sought the aid of outside experts. One of these, a lawyer named Marvin Fein, had already succeeded in negotiating much tougher agreements with coke companies in Pennsylvania, according to Dr. Paigcn. “Mr. Fein felt the agreement was atrocious,” she maintained, “and testified that New York State was being taken for a ride.” Another “expert,” an engineer who had been in - . . STUDY IN —continued from page 1— GUADALAJARA, MEXICO Fully accredited University of ... charge of enforcing coke oven control in heavily-industrialized Pittsburgh, agreed with Mr. Fein. During the course of the hearing, indicated Dr. Paigen, “the other side didn’t say a thing,” presumably because the state had assured that the hearing was being held only because her group Had" so demanded, and that nothing would be changed. Nevertheless, as a direct result of the Task Force’s testimony, the. state completely reversed its position, withdrew the compliance order, and took the case out of the hands of the original lawyers. The matter was turned over to David Van Epps, a Buffalo resident who is regional attorney for the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation. Another hearing “Van Epps did a wonderful job,” Dr. Paigen said- “He came up with a very tough compliance schedule.” Predictably, the coke companies refused to sign the new agreement, and the matter went one step further to an “administrative hearing” last month. Similar in many respects to a court trial, decisions at administrative hearings may be appealed to the regular courts. Upon hearing both sides, the hearing office submits his recommendation to the head of DEC, who will then write out an order which becomes law. For the first time since the Task Force had decided to crack down on pollution, it was excluded from the actual testimony because administrative hearings are formal legal agreements that “have nothing to do with the public,” according to Dr. Paigen. Instead, her class acted as legal consultant. Although rebuttals had been expected, Bethlehem Steel did not contest most of the evidence. With its back firmly against the wall, the company pledged to spend $40 million toward pollution control over the next three years. The Rachel Carson College Environmental Task Force, it appeared, had finally won its war against local pollution. The hearing officer still must submit his recommendation to Albany, but Dr. Paigen is virtually certain of a favorable ruling. Additionally, she expects Allied and Donner to follow the example of Bethlehem Steel. ‘There are no legal loopholes in the new compliance order,” said Dr. Paigcn. “Bethlehem Steel will be clean by mid-1977.” Page two The Spectrum Wednesday, 13 February 1974 sgol . rmnt'jsqS ariT M 1?!

Dr. Borst became embroiled in controversy last July when he led a successful effort to establish Clifford Furnace College as an autonomous unit by seceding from the Collegiate Assembly. The residential status of the College, he believed, placed it in basic disagreement with the other Colleges. “We have completely different there is nothing we purposes than the other Colleges not oppose,” Dr. Assembly does can do that the Collegiate Borst said on July 21. At that time, Collegiate Assembly representatives had strongly opposed any split by College D from the Assembly, maintaining they had never attempted to dictate policy to College D or hamper the College a freedom. Furnas College’s Borst arise by Larry Kraftowitz Campus Editor ... Lyle Borst, master of Clifford Furnas College (College D), resigned Thursday night. Dr. Borst has refused to comment on his resignation. However, several members of Clifford Furnas claimed that Dr. Borst, 61, resigned because he wanted to “take it easy” after leading the College for six long years. Spokesmen Collegiate system from both the residential College have also speculated that his departure may have been prompted by the recent passage of the new College Prospectus by the Faculty-Senate for “The Reichert Prospectus made no Colleges to exist external to the Colleges Council,” said Keith KIopp, acting administrative officer of the Collegiate System. There has been some question, he s?id, as to whether independent Colleges will be allowed to continue functioning outside the Collegiate structure through some other type of reporting relationship. Restraint “I personally didn’t think withdrawing from the Assembly was such a good idea," Mr. Klopp maintained. “Apparently Lyle felt he was under too much restraint physically, financially and administratively, and didn't want to be burdened by the rest of the Colleges.” Mr. Klopp said the operation of Clifford Furnas had always contrasted with the administration of other Colleges. “Most of the original units had a significant amount of student direction in coordination and administration, while Lyle has been the driving force behind College D,” he asserted. “1 think there was conflict in the past over who had the right to do what,” added Mr. Prior dispute “I can’t really relate Horst’s resignation to the Faculty-Senate’s action,” said a member of College E. He said Dr. Horst had threatened to quit on two previous occasions, possibly because of conflicts with students over College D’s policies. “Horst is a freaky dude,” he added. “He’s always going against his own College. He’s a wierd man to like likeable in his eccentricity but not really , Klopp. -> friendly.” While agreeing that the Reichert Prospectus may have threatened Clifford Furnas College’s independence and provided some impetus for the resignation, one College D spokesman insisted Dr. Horst was not disliked within the College. “He built up the College from nothing and was a guiding force, so as far as people not liking him from within the College, it just isn’t so,” the spokesman maintained. “It was merely coincidental that his resignation came at the same time the Reichert Prospectus was passed,” contended Alan Koslow, a member of the residential College D. Dr. Borst had been planning to leave for two years, but Mr. Koslow said, students had unanimously asked him to remain with College D a while longer. “Dr. Borst’s decision was somewhat surprising,” he added, Dr. Lyle Borst because the College had voted overwhelmingly independent status only three days before. Own mind ' to retain its College D President John Grace declined to discuss the matter until the students had an opportunity to explore it at length with Dr. Borst. “1 can’t really say why at this Mark Erlebacher, a former resident of College D, surmised that Dr. Borst had run things in a fairly strong manner. “I’d say Borst took input from the students and that he encouraged follow-up on many students’ ideas which are now physical realities because of tak endorsement,” said Mr. Erlebapher. “But he did exercise ■ certain amount of influence by vetoing ideas he thought were not helpful to the College,” he explained. “There’s always been a lot of speculation that the reasons Dr. Borst has given for doing things are not the real reasons,” said another College D insider. Dr. Borst’s charade of resigning, he claimed, may therefore have been a “facade for his being fed up with things.” In a brief telephone interview with The Spectrum Sunday night, Dr. Borst refused to comment because of The Spectrum’s “poor coverage” of College D. “1 don’t think The Spectrum writes objective stories,” Dr. Borst said. Although the reporter from The Spectrum said that his sole reason for calling him was to get his side of the story and thereby heighten objectivity, Dr. Borst hungup on him. More to offer than just a bunch of old mummies by Rich Lapping Staff Writer Spectrum When was the last time you saw a mummy, or gazed at the vast spacial mysteries, or whispered sweet venom to a tarantula? Regardless of your scientific interest and orientation, the Buffalo Museum of Science contains scores of exhibits guaranteed to capture your undivided attention. A towering Peninsula Giant Bear awesomely greets nearly 1000 visitors daily. Once safely beyond the entrance, Marchand’s Cavern is a convenient first stop for refuge. This simulated cavern was named in honor of Paul Marchand, who designed many of the displays throughout the museum. The .cave is amazingly with realisitc; scattered abundantly and stalagtites stalagmites. Stonehenge models The museum has a huge collection of mounted (stuffed) animals. All the mounting is done in the museum itself, by taxidermist Jim Dorr. Mr. Dorr also did the backgrounds and foregrounds for most of his exhibits. A freeze-dry unit has recently been added to the museum for quicker preparation in mounting animals. The mounted bird collection is very impressive. The multi-colored, feathery beauty of the Indian Peafowl alone is worth a trip to the museum. The Hall of Civilization contains highly detailed dioramas of past cultures. These intricate models depict lifelike scenes of Stonehenge, the Oriental Rice Culture of Luzon, and the com culture of the Hopi Indians. These particular exhibits will most assuredly send.toy sokUer fanatics from childhood into a tearful moment of nostalgia. The Hall of Astronomy is now being remodelled. The past exhibit was outdated, according to Ruth Schmidt, Editor of the musuem’s publications. Ernst E. Both, Astronomy Curator, and Dale Ransom, Senior Proprietor, are designing the new display. After three years in planning, it should be completed by this summer. This exhibit will “do the justice that textbooks miss” in the study and understanding of astronomy, Mr. Ransom said. Observatory open The Kellogg Observatory is open to the public every Friday evening. Additionally, the museum has a solar observatory which employs a stationary refractor telescope. It operates on a two-mirror light system, and projects the sun approximately three feet in diameter, on a wall in an adjoining bone fracture suffered by the unidentified room, Dr. Both explained.

Draft evaders... draft is far from impossible. The initially-disappointing statistics on the Volunteer Army provide a dark omen for the return of mandatory railitray service. Thousands in Canada The threat of a revived draft should be enough to center attention on the problems which persist from the last inductions. Several years ago, the number of Americans living in Canada to military avoid service was estimated as high as 100,000. That figure has recently been toned down to about 15,000. About 2,500 war resisters applied for landed immigrant status in Canada during a brief grace period which ended in October 1973. The official Canadian government estimates indicate another 13,000 had settled there between 1964 and 1971. This puts the number of American exiles in Canada at a conservative 15,000. The resisters who have remained underground or changed their identity add considerably to this figure. Tracked down by FBI The last Americans to be drafted are still in the service. Their two-year tour of duty still has about ten months left. Amid the publicity arid advertising of the volunteer army, they have been all but forgotten. The problems of a draftee in an army that sees itself as “All-Volunteer” can be extremely frustrating. It is not just the draftees that are discontent with their position. Hundreds of young men enticed into enlisting in the service upon graduating or dropping out of school have found the situation unacceptable and feel deserted. Surprisingly, the number out the best possible solution to their problems. For reservations to the CAMPUS MINISTRY CONFERENCE Please call 834-2297 — — ■ .

When the center is informed of the arrest, they put the young men in touch with a lawyer. Under such difficult circumstances, the best they can do is make sure all possible options are left open. The number of American exiles arrested upon re-entering the country is amazingly high.' One of the Draft Counseling Center’s counselors told of a young man who was arrested at the Peace Bridge one Saturday night when he tried to visit his girlfriend in Buffalo. He had assumed his presence had been forgotten. Most exiles are not aware of how closely their movements are followed by American authorities. Arrest at international airports when flights are blown off course and forced to land in the U.S. is another common occurence. Tight Federal surveillance results in a large number of arrests under such seemingly chance conditions. Well over 50 per cent of the FBI arrests last year were related, to draft and military violations. Federal authorities have not been as qyick to forget as the rest of the dountry. Their enforcement of now-dormant draft codes should serve as a reminder to all of the, dishonorable discharge can be avoided. Unless they are able to win a honorable discharge a slim chance the young man’s military record will plague him for the rest of his life. The Buffalo area, because of its proximity to the Canadian border, must deal with a distinctive set of problems. In addition to the servicemen and draft evaders from the local area, they must deal with the exiles returning from Canada who are picked up by Federal officials at the border. Blemished for life Once a soldier has been away from his post for 30 days, he faces the possibility of a long jail sentence. When they find their way to a counseling center, they are routinely advised to turn themselves in, and informed of the base where they will be treated with the greatest leniency. Once a deserter has surrendered the counseling agencies do their best to secure him a discharge on the most favorable grounds. With a certain degree of luck,and under circumstances, the a right ' —continued from page 1— of enlistees that go A.W.O.L. is higher than the draftees. After a period of 30 days, these men are put on the Federal Bureau of Investigation “wanted” files and tracked down as criminals. Once again, a general lack of awareness on the part of the public makes them . unsympathetic to the problems and difficulties facing these men. Groups such as the Vietnam Veterans Against the War, Winter Soldiers Organization and the Central Committee for Conscientious Objectors (CCCO) aid these men and help to work * - TICKETS S3QO • • • • • J • �Student coalition Existing College system revised from new Reichert Prospectus The recently-approved Reichert Prospectus for the Colleges will bring about a sweeping revision of the existing College system. Every current College will be required to win approval before a “chartering committee” by next January; any College which fails to win approval will cease to exist. Near-unanimous approval of the new Prospectus by the Faculty-Senate last Tuesday culminated months of work by Jonathan jReichert’s Colleges Committee and many hours of heated debate in the once-serene Facility-Senate. The chartering process is the key,point of the new Prospectus. The chartering committee will include six faculty members, three students and two Collegians. The Senate amended the original report to give the Colleges veto power over the six faculty appointments to the Chartering Committee and granted a similar-veto to the Faculty-Senate executive committee over the two College appointments to that Chartering Committee. Two Collegians added Extensive debate among faculty, students and Collegians highlighted discussion over the make-up of the proposed Chartering Committee. The Reichert Committee had recommended that no members of the current Collegiate Assembly be included on the Chartering Committee. They had recommended that members of the new College Council (which will replace the Collegiate Assembly) be included in the chartering process only after the first new College was approved. Alternatively, the Colleges proposed an amendment that would have given equal representation to faculty and Collegians on the Chartering Committee. The Faculty-Senate eventually adopted an amendment providing for two Collegiate Assembly members on the Chartering Committee during the interim period until the new College Council is operating. Advice and suggestions The proposed chartering process for establishing the new Colleges is a difficult one, dnd its rigorous nature is intended to increase the legitimacy of the Colleges. Under the guidelines in the Prospectus, all current Colleges will be granted continuing status until January 1975. During this time, each of the present Colleges must apply for official status. Those changeover dates must now be formally approved by the Faculty-Senate at next Tuesday’s meeting. Charters for Colleges will first be submitted to the new Dean of the Colleges and the College Council, the new body to replace the Collegiate Assembly, for advice and suggestions. Within one month, the Dean will submit the proposal to the Chartering Committee. That committee will then recommend that the proposed charter be adopted, rejected or modified. The charter will then be submitted to the Dean of the Colleges for his independent recommendation to the President, whose formal approval is necessary for implementation of the College charter. Detailed charter Faculty-Senate overruled the Prospectus’ for independent recommendations from the Academic Affairs vice president and Dean of Undergraduate Studies as well as from the Dean of the ' ' The provision Colleges. Colleges; a workshop program to develop new Colleges; and increased communication between Collegians, faculty and Administration. To promote increased faculty involvement in the Colleges, the Prospectus recommends that the Colleges receive funds to compensate regular University faculty by “purchasing released time from their departmental responsibilities." The Prospectus also recommended that the Administration recognize, reward and value teaching excellence when it is demonstrated in the Colleges. Explanations for the decline of faculty members teaching in the Colleges have ranged from a lack of rewards for faculty to the fear of losing tenure to the questions-of legitimacy in the Colleges. Any prospective College, with the exception of currently existing units, must begin with a one-semeater trial as a workshop. Proposals for workshops can be made by any faculty or student directly to the Colleges’ Dean. Designed to facilitate the development of new programs, “workshop” status must be held for a minimum of one semester. Workshops may offer non-credit seminars and other activities. After one semester, a Workshop may also offer courses for credit, following approval by the Dean and DUS. Funds will be made available to Workshops out of the overall College budget. No Workshop can exist for more than three semesters. After this trial period, the Workshop must apply for charter status as a new College or disband. ■• In the chartering process, each proposal for College status would be expected to include: the intellectual Pass/No credit option purpose of the proposed College; the educational style of The Reichert prospectus further states that the the College; course descriptions; and a list of College director of the Colleges should be renamed Dean and be personnel, including, but not necessarily limited to, the given authority equivalent to that of a provost.

The Prospectus also calls on the Administration to make a financial commitment to long-range funding of the 10% experimental The new Prospectus permits each College to offer 10% Colleges. The document suggests a minimum of six of its courses on an experimental one-semester basis. The residential and six non-residential Colleges, each sufficiently funded to be able to support substantial Colleges Committee report originally recommended that all College courses be required to gain prior Division of faculty participation as well as special programs and Undergraduate Studies (DUS) approval. normal operational expenses. A “Pass/No Credit” grading system will be instituted The “10% experimental” provision was a compromise between the Reichert argument for added legitimacy in the in the Colleges in addition to the normal grading Colleges and the Collegiate view that elimination of procedures. This system provides for greater flexibility in experimental courses would curtail the more innovative the more innovative programs. In courses operating under this system, students will be able to opt for the “Pass/No aspects of thp Colleges. The new Prospectus also calls for increased faculty Credit” system as well as normal grading procedures. The self-proclaimed aim of the new Prospectus is to involvement in the Colleges; a long-range financial commitment by the Administration to assure adequate create “strong, independent, intellectually respectable and viable Colleges that will have a significant impact on the planning and development; a “Pass/No Credit” grading undergraduate education of many of our students.” option; increased authority for the new Dean of the Deadline extended imenstedstudents, faulty worhty with student First time, full-time students who are in financial need may still apply for Basic Educational Opportunity Grants from the Federal Government, Health Education and Welfare Secretary Caspar W.

As every sixth-grader knows, corporations hold all the aces government influence, great sums of money, scores of loophole-wise lawyers against the feeble protests of powerless consumers. There are jokers in the deck for the consumer, however; onfes that are rarely used to their fullest extent. They are the environmental protection laws, and knowledgable citizens can wield enough clout with those legal tools to make even faceless corporations sit up and take notice. In an unprecedented example of legal ability and unyielding perseverance, three semesters of students in Beverly Paigen's Rachel Carson College class have struck a blow for clean air against the giant Bethlehem Steel corporation. For two years. Dr. Paigen's students had engaged in frustrating legal skirmishes against Bethlehem Steel, which produces 60% of the air pollution in Buffalo and Lackawanna. At first they couldn't even obtain Bethlehem's pollution statistics, although this data is public information by Federal law. Even after suing the State of New York under the Federal Clean Air Act of 1970, victory remained elusive during one legal run-around after another. Through persistent hard work, the students finally forced the matter into an "administrative hearing," which Bethlehem couldn't stall, evade or manipulate, and the steel corporation did not contest most of the evidence presented. As a result, Bethlehem Steel has pledged to spend $40 million over the next three years to curb air pollution. This is no small victory; to coerce a major industrial corporation such as Bethlehem Steel to spend$40 million on air pollution is nothing short of a major consumer breakthrough. For all the abuse aimed at the Colleges lately, this accomplishment should underscore their viability as a productive force for social action. Certainly Dr. Paigen's students received an unparalleled legal education in the ins and outs of corporate warfare. But the results should be heartening to the"powerless" consumers that Ralph Nader and PIRG, John Gardner and Common Cause, and so many other activists are trying to mobilize. People can move institutions occasionally, especially when armed with the right legal tools. In the battle against air pollution in Buffalo, Rachel Carson College has written a new chapter. — — What kind of Colleges? • The time has come for some serious thought and extensive dialogue about the future of the Colleges and education itself at this University. The hard-fought battles over the Reichert prospectus and the legislative details of the Chartering Committee have polarized the campus and obscured the more central educational questions which must now be faced. What kind of Colleges do we want? What factors will the Chartering Committee weigh most heavily in deciding who gets chartered and who doesn't? While the answers must await the formation of the committee, the new Prospectus only requires a detailed statement of methods of operation. A dialogue is most sorely needed between students, faculty, Collegians, administrators, the new committee and new Dean of the Colleges Irving Sptizberg to determine the minimum standards that new Colleges must meet. Those rigid regulations only standards must be flexible enough yield dull conformity to accommodate a broad diversity of Collegiate programs. The danger we have often warned against is an obsession by the committee with the number of Ph.D faculty teaching in each College, to the exclusion of valuable assets like professional community people and strong student interest. Many Colleges have been unable to attract faculty due to lack of funds, and the lack of any reward for Collegiate teaching for promotion-minded instructors. The Reichert Prospectus recognizes this by proposing released time and merit bonuses for Collegiate teaching. But to exclude progressive Colleges beforehand for having few faculty, without giving them a fair chance to attract them, is like castigating the poor for having no money. The need is for open-minded persons on the Chartering Committee, and perhaps the veto granted Collegians and faculty over each other can keep each side honest. But the larger need is for an extensive dialogue on the Faculty-Senate to delineate a flexible floor, in SA forums and elsewhere view of what's expected of the new Colleges (hopefully not a long list of Ph.D's), so as to give Colleges of every academic and political shade a fair chance to become chartered. — — — — — ftige six The Spectrum Wednesday, 13 February 1974 . . *WIUw Oil, MIT DON'T YOU NAVI Far from the truth To the Editor. In regard to your editorial of Feb. 11, 1974, “Give PIRG a chance,” your claim that S.A. allocated WNYP1RG only two thousand dollars ($2000) this year because “altering budget allocations in the middle of the year would have been too difficult.” Once again, Spectrum, you’re quite far from the truth. Difficulty played no part in PIRG’s allocation, rather impossibility did. You see, Mr. Editor, once S.A. budgeted its funds last May, it’s absolutely financially impossible to alter those allocations. The only budget which remained to be passed by the Student Assembly at the time of the PIRG question was the Athletic budget. Originally, Athletics was preliminarily budgeted for two hundred and twenty thousand dollars ($220,000), PIRG was made aware of the fact that the only available remaining money in the S.A. budget at that time would be if the lowered the Athletic Department allocation. Subsequently, the Assembly passed an effective Athletic budget at two hundred seventeen thousand, six hundred and seventy dollars ($217,670.00). Following this decrease given to Athletics, two thousand three hundred and thirty dollars ($2330.00) was reallocated to PIRG. So you see Mr. Editor, there was no bureaucratic obstinance involved here as you so blatantly point out. It seems that perhaps in your zest for fairness, you have misrepresented some very important facts. We would all agree that students do not know all they should about how their money is being spent. But rather than clearing up any misconceptions, you .have magnified them. My question now to you is whether you sincerely practice in future issues what you preach in past? Assembly Kenneth linker. Treasurer Student Association Outdoing Gelbaum The only problem with Or. Gelbaum’s proposal is that it doesn’t go far enough. If a class goes for 50 minutes three days a week, that is only 150 minutes or 2H contact hours per week. Obviously then, only 2.5 credits should be given #ot the course. Then we can progress to the polrit where University education should be the six-course load. — - To the Editor Ass kisser Defend against reactionaries To the Editor Gelbaum’s recommendation for a five-course load reflects the administration’s low regard for student intelligence and a continuing trend to hamstring progressive and experimental thought. Under the four-course load, students take responsibility to study in depth and more fully comprehend subject matter. Uridcr the five-course system, students are pressured to write less researched papers and become more oriented to examinations. The quality of education, of course, decreases. The idea that students will not devote more time to individual studies and need to be tutored, lectured, and conditioned to choices a, b, c, d is an insult to our intelligence. Furthermore, this five-course load, mind-conditioning system defeats the purpose of a university. This University should aid students and faculty to develop their personal capabilities to deal with their- subject matter ana develop their ability to affect personal and social growth. ■. Five courses would necessitate hiring of more professors who would probably be conservative and reactionary, as Ketter’s past appointments attest Beyond this, these extra professors would require additional funds. These funds are probably available for the state, or Gelbaum would not recommend the course increase. We must demand these funds, but use them for the fund-starved library, health care, and other services. Instead of using these funds to reinforce reactionary course load- systems and reactionary professors, these funds should be used the for progressive and experimental education Colleges. It is our fight to defend vibrant education against static reactionary methods. Come to the rally Thursday at one o’clock in the Fillmore Room. , - Daniel Cusimano Clarification To the Editor. I would like to clear up some misunderstandings which have arisen over the past week concerning elections coverage in the publications. In an article dated February 4, 1974,1 was misquoted concerning last year’s coverage of the elections. This quote, along with editorial comments concerning premature news coverage, have been viewed by many people as a jab at other campus publications. At this time I feel it best to clarify and possibly rectify this situation. The intent of my statements concerning election coverage was not to accuse any publication of wrong doing in the elections. I said that in the eyes of many candidates the elections coverage in one of the publications, was biased. The deletion of these words totally changed the content of my statement. Candidates running for office cannot be considered the judges of editorial endorsements by a newspaper, and in my own knowledge I would feel confident in saying that Ethos is judiciously following this year’s elections guidelines. The objective coverage given to election reforms this year by both publications was good and their intent deserve to be commended. I am confident this good intent will be carried over into this year’s elections and hope no hard feelings will develop over elections differences between the publications. David Saleh Executive Vice-president Student Association �Outside ooking In • by Clem Colucci Editor’s note: This is true. We were sitting on the Jamaica Avenue “L” smoking a joint with Fred, a Riker’s Island veteran on his way to the Bronx on his way to commit a Crime. Somewhere over South Brooklyn, Fred, a 6’2” black man in his early to mid-twenties, had come from the car in front of us, Larry and I were the only ones in the car, everyone else having gotten off at earlier stops. Fred entered the car, looked back over his right shoulder into the car from which he had come, walked to the right front door to look out the window, crossed the car with a pronounced sway, looked out the left front door and stopped about six feet in front of me. He reached into the left-hand pocket of his long, brown army surplus greatcoat and pulled out cigarettes, matches, a joint and a nasty looking pocket knife about five inches long closed." He palmed the joint, lit it and a cigarette, returned the pack to his left-hand pocket, opened the nasty-looking pocket knife now roughly nine inches long hefted it and, looking satisfied with its deadliness, placed it, still open, into his right hand pocket where he could whip it out and kill anyone he pleased including us. We sat transfixed, armed only with unbrellas, as Fred stood barely six feet away toking on the joint in his right hand while holding the burning cigarette in his left. It was ten minutes of sheer terror. I had visions of a wild duel me and possibly Larry with our umbrellas against Fred and his knife. Larry had a somewhat more realistic vision of a knife plunging into his gut. This continued for some time as Fred swayed with the motion of the train, smoking an illegal drug on a public train. Then we saw a body of water out the window. Larry identified it for me as New York Harbor. Then Fred turned and looked straight at me. “Oh no, we’ve offended him,” 1 thought. He walked slowly to my seat. I yas about to drop to, my_ knees and beg for my ‘Hfe wfieh he offered me the joint. 1 took it and toked deeply. It tasted soapy but I wasn’t going to complain. ■' He motioned 10 me to pass it to Larry, which I did, and he sat down next to us.

I wish to compliment The Spectrum and Marty Markowitz for publishing the article “Unauthorized use of phones uncovered by billing error,” which is .exceljpnt. example pf investigatory reporting tojwhich'vvilbbe of real benefit to the entire University community students, faculty, staff and administration. Contrary to the impression of some members of the University community, the University does not have an unlimited drawing account on the State Treasury to pay telephone bills. The University must pay for telephone service from a fixed appropriation which also covers the cost of instructional supplies and materials, equipment, books, postage and so on. To the extent that this appropriation is used to pay for unnecessary telephone service there is that much less available for the educational and research, programs of the University. - Charles Batkin Assistant Vice President for Business Affairs & Controller The Spectrum Vol. 24, No. 54 Wednesday, 13 February 1974 Editor-in-Chief Managing Editor papers.” The incident recurred in our conversation all through that day and on the Q-5 bus to Larry’s home, he said; “I’ve lived in New York for 20 years and never saw anything like that.” “It must be the kind of people 1 attract,” I replied. Silly little games To the Editor In the February 6th issue of The Spectrum , there werfe two articles I’d like to comment on. The first was an article on tenure by Renee Ryback. There is a current trend in the academic community and elsewhere to get away from titles that describe people on the basis of their sex rather than their function or position. Ryback uses the term spokesperson to refer to females and spokesman in referring to males. The purpose of a word such as spokesperson is completely nullified when a person becomes another synonym for female. The second article was by Clem Colucci, and appeared on the editorial page. I would like to think this article was a joke, but as it was presented in a fairly serious manner, I feel compelled to respond. Colucci’s so called new etiquette is bullshit. The “proliferating liberation movements” are seeking to tear down arbitrary rules and regulations which confine people to limited overly well defined roles. The whole point of liberation is that what is proper for women is equally proper for men and vice versa. Colucci suggests a series of silly little games based largely on what’s proper for males as opposed to females. If we have need for an etiquette book, and I sincerely doubt that we do, it should teach people to be considerate and honest good manners require — nothing more. Tiki Jalomck Howie Kurtz — Business Manager conveyance with a complete stranger, and he began to talk. We learned his name was Fred and he was going to meet a friend in the Bronx to do him a favor. The friend was starting a band and wanted Fred to play lead guitar. Fred, who seemed a nice obliging fellow, readily agreed. But there was a problem: Fred didn’t have a guitar or amp. He also didn’t have any money. So Fred would meet his friend in the Bronx and pull a “sting.” They were going to rob a music supply store. That’s what the knife was for. The owner would be no problem, but the guard dog was another matter. “He gon’ get one of us,” Fred said, “but the other gon’ slit his back open quick.” Larry, who seems to like dogs better than people, cringed. Fred was on parole. He had been sent up to Ricker’s Island in June after being charged with burglary. The charge was thoroughly unjust, said Fred, because he had neither stolen property nor burglary tools. The most they could have gotten him for was illegal trespass. Oh yes, and possession of marijuana. His case was shuffled around for a few months, reaching State Supreme Court, and he eventually went to the Island for possession. He didn’t mind his stay because as soon as he got there he scored some dope and stayed high, quiet and well-behaved enough to be paroled for Thanksgiving. Now, out on parole, Fred was smoking marijuana in a public train and on his way to commit a robbery. So much for the American correctional system. Fred was a man of advanced political opinions: “This damn Nixon, man, he’s drivin’ me crazy.” Fred told us the energy crisis was responsible for his taking a train to the Bronx instead of driving to the scene of the crime. We all got off at the Chambers St. station, Fred to his next train and we to City Hall, exchanging cordial farewells and mutual wishes of good luck. “Who does better crime coverage,” I asked Larry, “the Times or the News ?” ‘The News," he answered. “Well have to get tomorrow’s issue and see if Fred made the — Janis Cromer — SARB loses Dave Simon Gerry McKeen Advertising Manager Production Supervisor Joel Altsman — - Backpage Campus City Composition Asst . ., Jay Boyar Raodi Schnur . .

N.V. The Spectrum Student Periodical, Inc. Republication of any matter herein without the express consent of the (c) Editor-in-Chief is strictly forbidden. Editorial policy is determined by the Editor-in-Chief Bruce Engel was quick to point out my political affiliations in his article in Friday’s The Spectrum concerning the Student Athletic Review Board. Yet Mr. Engel failed to print the real reason why Frank Jackalone was originally named to SARB and the real reasons that led to his resignation, one which I feel I must accept. As Mr. Engel well knows, Mr. Jackalone was probably one of the most active and concerned members on the Future of Athletics Committee. Not only did he show a true concern for Athletics, but it was Mr. Jackalone who was in great part responsible for the new guidelines to SARB, which I feel should definitely increase SARB’s effectiveness and its viability. To say that Mr. Jackalone is a highly qualified candidate for the Athletic Review Board is almost an understatement. In fact he probably would have been the most qualified candidate on the board. I find it truly unfortunate that I must accept his resignation. To say as Mr. Engel does that I have violated the spirit of the resolution in order to pick Frank Jackalone for SARB is almost an absurdity. And to have Mr. Engel further imply that I am responsible for playing politics with the board is even further ridiculous. The real people who played the politics are those who are afraid to see Frank Jackalone on SARB because of his political inclination to run for S.A. They are afraid that because Frank Jackalone truly cares for Athletics, a position on SARB would allow him further press coverage due to the work that he has performed on behalf of Athletics. All that I can say, and here I agree with Mr. Engel, the students come out the loser, for a good person was forced to resign from SARB. Warren Breisblatt Chairman, SARB Wednesday, 13 February 1974 .

Assistant conductor Robert Cole, who was to have made his Symphony Series debut in the second half of the program, assumed full conducting duties. Beethoven’s Seventh Symphony was substituted for Ms. von Stade’s intended vocal works. The confusion surrounding the program was not at all reflected in the performance. Opening the concert was Henry Purcell s “C ha cone in f minor,” scored for string ensemble. Cole and the orchestra members handled the of this shifting textures seventeenth work century smoothly. But the real proving ground was the next work, the vibrant Seventh Symphony of Ludwig von Beethoven. There was no way that the Orchestra could have had time to adequately prepare it with Mr. Cole. Yet, the players responded to him as if guided by telepathy. Entries were sharp and clear, a tribute to the abilities of both the conductor and the performers. Tempo Cole took the opening movement rather too slowly but gave a dynamicism to the movements that remaining ■ brought shouts from the floor. The dolorous Andante crisply offset the dance-like third and fourth movements. Ives Charles Second Symphony occupied the second half of the program. Ives is the father of the American experimental tradition in music. One of the things for which he is famous is his ability to dissolve fragments of popular tunes in the fabric of his music. The Second Symphony is a collage of Americana containing bits of “America the Beautiful Bringing in the Sheaves, My Maryland and “Columbia, Gem of the Ocean among others. ” ' The Philharmonic displayed an intimate rapport with this piece. Especially effective was the interplay between the percussion section and the tuba players, a producing raunchy, effect.

In addition, the administration’s educational rally which has grown out of a developing coalition Editor’s of students and various campus groups to raise the issues of economic cutbacks and harrassment of radical, progressive educational programs. The organization of a coalition group began on February 5 when supporters of the Colleges walked out of the Faculty-Senate meeting where the new Collegiate Prospectus was being considered. This was the third such attempt to cooperate with that body to reach some sort of fair agreement. However, the Senate procedures and chairman gave explicit preference to Senators, and debate was limited. At one point in the meeting, a non-faculty woman in a highly publicized incident, was interrupted by the chairman as she tried to show the underlying causes and consequences of an amendment and to relate these to broader concerns affecting the decision. She was ruled out of order and the vote was taken as she continued to talk. This incident and the Collegiate struggle are only part of the harrassment and cutbacks taking place at SUNYAB. The University’s financial priorities are quietly eliminating whole groups of people from this campus. Over the past few years, tuition at the State University has steadily increased. When the new Amherst campus is fully operating, it will have thousands of white, middle-class students. Third world and lower-income students won’t be there because financial assistance programs that give them the money to pay tuition, buy books and afford housing and food are being cut back or eliminated. If the students somehow do get there, they will be denied necessary services and facilities. There is no space designated at the Amherst Campus for the Black Student Union and space for the Colleges has been seriously reduced.

He was one of 34 young people from the United States who participated in a tour sponsored by the National Council of American Soviet Friendship. This is the second in a series of articles dealing with the Soviet government and youth participation. The Soviets of Working People’s Deputies form the political foundation of the Soviet system and young people play a significant role in that system. On the highest governing body, the Supreme Soviet of the USSR, composed of Deputies to all soviets are elected on the basis of a universal and direct vote with secret ballot. Nomination of candidates Candidates for the soviets are nominated by trade unions, youth public organizations, organizations, Communist party organizations, and general meetings of workers at factories and institutions, and of service persons in the military, and of farmers on collective farms. Candidates can be nominated for local soviets at age 18, for Republic soviets at 21, and for the Supreme Soviet at age 23. Citizens can vote at age 18, and both party And non-party candidates are popularly elected. The first step in the election process is .’ISfiEsi 1517 deputies, 281 (18.5%) are young people between the age of 23 and 29. In the local Soviets across the country, a full one-quarter (25.7%), or about 500,000 young people age 18 to 29 are deputies. A standing committee on Youth Affairs exists in all soviets, and initiates special legislation pertaining to youth. One law tips, and. that was proposed by passed, called for setting up special preparatory courses for youth working in industry, agriculture and in the military service. This law aided these young people in gaining entrance to Universities and Institutes. Youth deputies also succeeded in sponsoring legislation establishing youth clubs, cultural centers, and sports and recreation facilities. Democratic and representative But young people themselves reported that the most important feature of the soviet system was that it was democratic and representative of Soviet society, and that representation in the government is based upon where people work or study. Workers and farmers engaged in daily production make up over 50% of the deputies in the soviets, and one-half of the Supreme Soviet represents the national groups in the USSR, which number about 100. Soviets exist at various levels of society. The smallest are the district Soviets (part of a city), then city Soviets, regional Soviets (comprising many cities and villages in the area), republic Soviets (in each of the 15 republics), and the Supreme Soviet of the USSR. Each republic is a national sovereign State, having its own constitution based on the constitution of the USSR. Each of these soviets have administrative power in their respective territorial area. for public meetings to be held for the purpose of nominating candidates. A number of meetings may be held, and candidates give their qualifications, and answer questions that the public may have. There may be 1, 2, 3 or more nominees, then a vote is taken to choose one. The person with the highest vote is that 4tSfrict’$ candidate. On election day, the voters go out and vote for the person, or against him, by crossing his name out. 25.7% that are young people, 14.8% are members of the Young Communist League. However, the large number of elected non-party members are not necessarily in opposition to the Communist party. A technician in a Leningrad plant, who wasn’t a member of the Communist party, but was in support of the party, told me he hadn’t joined because he didn’t have time to take up party responsibilities. There are two houses in the Supreme Soviet; the Soviet of the Union and the Soviet of the Nationalities. Each have equal rights, and equal power to propose legislation. A law is passed if both chambers give a majority vote. The deputies in the Soviet of the Union are elected, one for every 300,000 people. The deputies in the Soviet of the Nationalities are comprised of representatives of the many nationalities in the USSR. Various nationalities In the Soviet of the Nationalities, deputies are elected from the 15 Republics, each of which have their own nationality. Representation is not based on size or population, but gives equal representation to large and small Republics. For example, the Russian Republic has 132 million people, while the Estonia Republic has about 1Vi million people; yet both have 32 deputies in the Soviet of the Nationalities. Also represented are smaller nationalities living within a larger nationality. Autonomous republics, existing within a Republic, have 11 deputies. Autonomous regions, which are smaller groups, have 5 deputies each. The Jewish autonomous region is one of these. The smallest division is called a national area, usually comprised of national groups living in remote areas. The Yakagirs group is the smallest national area, having about 500 people. They have one deputy in the Soviet of the Nationalities. The role of the Community Party is to give leadership to the entire country. Its members are in all organizations: trade unions, youth groups, professional groups, the organizations. However, the is from separate Party Communist government, though its members have been elected to many ofits leading positions. Working people arid youth, through the economic planning committees, and through their representatives in the Soviets, help plan and regulate the economy of the science country. The basis of a socialist economy is that the means of production are owned and controlled by the public. Individuals own their own personal items, house, car, etc., but no one person or groups of people can own the land, productive processes, or natural resources. Economic plan The Communist Party draws up a rough draft for the economy for the next five years. This goes to thousands of workers’ meetings throughout the country where it is discussed, and suggestions are added to it. It then goes to the State Planning Committee, which is made up of specialists in economics, the appropriate scientific field, and trade unionists. Here the final plan is hammered out, with trade unionists insuring the proper work speed, working conditions and benefits. Then the plan is taken to the Supreme Soviet for acceptance or rejection. The plan is accepted and made into law upon a majority vote in the Supreme Soviet. I was told that the Supreme Soviet is very conscious of what they pass, since it will be the plan that they themselves will be working under for the next five years. The Soviet Union is now in the middle of their ninth five-year plan. The final article of this series will discuss the Soviet Union and their relations with the world around them. Sometimes two 1 was told that in some districts with a heavy concentration of industrial workers, two candidates may be chosen. Practically every candidate receives a majority vote, which is required for election. In 1973, only 80 candidates failed to receive a majority vote out of over two million elections. In these rare cases, the nominating procedure is repeated. A similar procedure is carried out at all levels. All campaign expenses are paid for by the state. Everyone I asked, explained the election procedure the same way, and everyone 1 spoke with felt that it is a fair and just method. Of the 1517 deputies elected in June 1970 to the Supreme Soviet, 481 (31.7%) are workers engaged in daily production. 282 deputies (18.6%) are farmers. These, and all elected working people, get time off their job, with full pay, to go to government sessions. Here they propose legislation, and pass it into law with a majority vote. 463 deputies (30.5%) are women. 27.7% are non-party members. Women and non-party members In the local soviets, 36.5% are workers; 28.8% are farmers; 45.8% are women; and 55.5% are non-party members.

The Chatgers, who dropped their fourteenth contest in 21 starts, have won two of twelve in Division II play. New Haven had been shocked the previous night when their backup goaltender, Joe Defelice, was badly injured in his first start of the season. “He [DeFelice] stood up on a high shot, and he got hit right in the throat,” reported New Haven Director of Sports Information Bob Cornell. “He suffered a fractured larynx. We were lucky that he didn’t die on the ice,” Cornell added. “I expected a competitive game," said Bull coach Ed Wright. “1 didn’t expect things to get out of hand the way they did. The fact that they had a goaltender almost get killed Saturday night played on their minds. I’m sure a lot of them didn’t want to get dressed for the game,” Wright added. - - Davies notches four The Chargers first-string goalie, Buddy Heaney, was sidelined with mononucleosis, so the Bulls whipped fourteen goals past third-string netmindcr Paul Skarainski before he was mercifully replaced four minutes into the final stanza. Chuck Davies, who shifted from center to left wing prior to last weekend’s game, paced Buffalo with four goals against New Haven Davies attributed his scoring outburst, which doubled his season goal total to ten, to increased playing time. “I’m suddenly playing more,” remarked Davies. “1 feel a lot more confident now, maybe the sitting docs that to you. Now I’m playing wing regularly. Before 1 was just playing erratic shifts,” Davies continued. The Bull forward had been playing center on the fourth line before this weekend’s action. Right wing Mike Klym, who scored three goals against A1C and two at New Haven, received honorable mention for the ECAC’s weekly all-star team. Defenseman Mike Perry also received honorable mention. The Bulls resume action by faring Ithaca Saturday at Holiday Twin Rinks and facing Brockport Sunday at a figure skating rink in Rochester. Buffalo downed Brockport at home last semester by 13-1, while splitting a pair of games at Ithaca in December. You are invited to a lecture on Christian Science given by Harvey W. Wood, C.S.B.

Benjamin, the Bulls one man cheering section, is not noted for perfect execution of thr butterfly. Sometimes, in the last SO yards, he has trouble raising his arms above the water. But this doesn’t discourage Scott from jumping and yelling, and swinging his towel in all sorts of gestures to cheer his teammates on. Then, there is sprinter Sam Konigsberg. “Flash,” as he is known to his teammates, did not acquire this title because he is rivaling Mark Spitz. However, Konigsberg gives everything he’s got. Against Albany on Friday, “Flash” was so psyched for the 50-yard freestyle that he made a false start. He is still hoping to get his time low enough to qualify for the regionals. Small crowds, little compensation The fact that the Bulls have not been winning makes it that much more difficult on the team. Swimming before small crowds, there is little compensation for the Bulls except personal satisfaction. Competing with others and knowing they have given it their best is their only reward. The Bulls will face Fredonia this afternoon in their last road meet of the season. This will "not be an easy match as Fredonia has just come off an impressive win against Niagara. JV Bulls guard pace; victory over Hilbert by Paige Miller Spectrum Staff Writer Returning to Clark Hall after a disastrous three game road trip, the junior varsity basketball Bulls defeated Hilbert College, 87-75, Saturday afternoon. The Baby Bulls now stand 3-10 on the year, With all three victories coming at Clark Hall. The Hawks arc now 7-12. � A major factor in the game was the Hawks height advantage. , Center Mike Merrill, who stands 6-7, neutralized Buffalo’s 6-5 Norm Weber. Hawks assistant coach Jerry Falgiano remarked, “Merrill rebounded well but his shooting was off. He played good defense.” Merrill pulled down 17 rebounds, including five in the first minute of the second half. He held Weber to just one rebound in the first half. The rest of the Bulls front line was equally ineffective. While Buffalo’s forwards were ineffective due to their lack of height, Buffalo’s guards played exceptionally well in spite of their lack of height. John Ruffino led all. scorers with 25 points on a 11-21 shooting performance. Gene Henderson of the Bulls, who stands only 5-10, was credited with 12 rebounds, high for the Bulls. Henderson was responsible for breaking the Hawks’ press late in the game. At one point, the ball Henderson brought upcourt leaving three would-be defenders strewn behind him, drawing a roar from the small crowd. Rid ell shines Perhaps the best performance to of the game belonged substitute guard Dave Ridell. Rid ell, easily the smallest man on the court at .5-8, pulled down seven rebounds. Ridell shot 6-for-6 from the field and duplicated this at the freethrow line, while accumulating six assists. Buffalo’s guards also played well defensively. Don Zucarelli, who usually runs* the Hawks offense, was held to a sub-par performance. “Zucarelli wasn’t calling out plays like we wanted him to,” said Falgiano. “Of course, we had a game last which doesn’t help.” night, Saturday, the Baby Bulls resume their six-game homestand against Geneseo.

Monday, 11 February 1974 State University of New York at Buffalo aft evaders prosecuted by Michael O’Neill false impression” and times when he gave “bad National Editor information” to the jurors. The report also took exception to the method of presenting a package f six cases at a time to the grand jury. It concluded that the deliberation failed to distinguish individual cases and onptted pertinent information in many instances. Nevertheless, the decision to dismiss the cases left’the door open to further prosecution. The judicial report failed to drop the indictments with prejudice, a move that would have meant that the defendants would have gone free. The option to press the charges again was left up to U.S. Attorney John T. Elfvin. After a period of deliberation, Mr. Elfvin’s office sent notice to 125 of thedefendants and their attorneys that they had the option of “enlisting in a branch of the armed forces or face re-indictment.” The remainder of the cases were dismissed by the prosecutor’s office because of either a lack of evidence or a poor chance of attaining another -v indictment. Editor’s Note: This is the first in a series of articles on the military, the draft and Vietnam war resisters. A large number of the 153 local defendants whose draft evasion cases were dismissed last week because of a grand jury investigation which “seriously infringed upon the rights of individual defendants” now face the risk of being reprosecuted by the U.S. Attorney’s office for the same charges. Letters were sent to 125 of the defendants stating that if they “did not enlist in a branch of the armed service by February 19th,” they would be prosecuted on draft evasion charges. The remaining cases were dropped by the prosecutor’s office for various reasons; none of these men will face further prosecution. The original indictments were dismissed two weeks ago by Judges John T. Curtin and John 0. Henderson, citing what they termed the “hasty presentation” and 'shotgun approach” of the Erie County Grand Jury. A 35-page report issued by the judges affirmed that the November, 1973 hearings were characterized by “a lack of preparation in individual cases” which deprived the men of their “protection against false accusations.” — - Year’s worth of draft cases During one three-hour session, the grand jurors were presented with 60 cases, allowing an average of only three minutes of deliberation for each case. “The time given for consideration of each indictment demonstrates little regard for the rights of defendants,” the judges wrote. The jury deliberations were an attempt to review more than a year’s accumulation of local draft cases from the year 1971. The evidence in the 153 cases was presented to the grand jury between November 14 and 17, 1972. Assisting in the review of the cases was Col. William I. Silverberg, a retired Army officer and Selective Service official. “Col. Silverberg’s presence cannot be justified as an attorney for the government,” the judges stafed. “There is also the possibility that the presence of Col. Silverberg influenced the testimony of the Selective Service Board employees.” Elaborating on Col. Silverberg’s presence, the report said: “There were instances when he left a « - More irregularites seen Indictments may not be handed down in all cases after the jurors re-examine them. “There is a chance that several of those who seek acquittal through the courts will succeed in establishing that the previous Grand Jury investigation had prejudiced their cases,” Mr. Elfvin said. His office also extended a grace period to those who could demonstrate good faith and an intent to enlist in the service but at a laterdate. The cases could become more complicated than they already have. Stan Callessano, a defense counsel for several of the men, said: “There are more procedural irregularities that have yet to be brought up.” He indicated that these irregularities Would be used by the defense if the cases are reopened. If the cases are reopened and new indictments are handed down, it will be a long time until the defendants actually come to trial. The average delay between offense and indictment is 32 months. A postponement of this extent would leave room for a motion of dismissal on grounds of undue delay. While legal negotiations and preparations are carried out by prosecutors and defense counsels, the fate of almost 125 young men remains in doubt. Charges of draft evasion continue to hang over their heads long after American troop involvement in Southeast Asia and military conscription have come to a halt. Expected to house 3250 students, the Ellicott Complex is slated to open its doors in September. Ellicott Complex: an isolated but exciting living-learning center by Amy Dunkin Campus Editor At first glance, the huge, labrynth-like Ellicott Complex, tucked away in the remote northwest comer of the Amherst campus, appears to have been deserted by civilization. With a closer examination, however, the area is bustling with activity as workmen prepare for the grand opening in September. Described by many as a has about five times as much complete living-learning center, the Ellicott Complex is divided into six residential quadrangles, interconnected by a central academic spine. The buildings, which vary in height from three to ten stories, are all scheduled for completion for the fall semester. The Ellicott Complex will accommodate approximately 3250 residents. There are 447 single rooms, 304 doubles, 231 triples, 350 fours and 17 sixes the interspersed throughout complex. Housing expects to fill approximately 1200 beds in the fall. Cliff Wilson, assistant director of Housing, projected that the residential space would be fully utilized in three years. parking space as the Governor’s Residence Halls. The ground floor levels of the dormitory buildings will house cafeterias, lounges, game rooms and some faculty offices. Food Service Director Raymond Becker specified that the cafeterias were designed with U-shaped counters, similar to the one at Ridge Lea. Although Food Service has not determined the type of meal plan it will offer, Mr. Becker said at least one board contract and one cash line will be operated. University plaza The second floor of the Ellicott compound was described by Mr. Wilson as “an attractive, bricked-in plaza that meanders Supply and demand through the entire complex.” Mr. Wilson indicated that more People are free to move outside as single and double rooms were well as inside on this level with built in response to the large the aid of paved walkways passing demand, but cheaper through grassy courtyards. costs accounted for the abundance of The center of activity will be multi-person rooms (three or the Fillmore Collegiate Center, more people).

While all drugs may be dangerous if misused, these three are a special threat in that they arc unpredictable. We advise you to be cautious. Two of the pills are bootleg (street made) “quaaludes” which are mainly made up of Toluidin. The effects of these quaaludes are two-fold. Irritation of the bladder has occurred in a large proportion of users. This irritation may lead to ulceration of the bladder which causes internal bleeding. A symptom of this ulceration is blood in the urine. You are advised to see a doctor if this occurs. The following are descriptions of the pills; I) Small (smaller than an aspirin), white, other through the center): 2) Small, brownish, round, pill: no markings. The third problem is a capsule which is being sold on campus and in the local high schools as an amphetamine. The price of the capsule is about $.75. In reality, this capsule is Pronestyl, which is cardiac depressant. A cardiac depressant has the effect of slowing down the heart. This can be fatal if the user has any heart defect (such as heart murmur) or if the capsule is combined with alcohol. The capsule is yellow with “Squibb 758” written on both halves of the capsule. If anyone has questions concerning these, or any other drugs, please call Sunshine House at 831-4046, or stop by at 106 Winspear Ave. Equivalency Diploma seen more favorably interpretation.

This University began accepting students with the Equivalency Diploma four years ago, and those now enrolled “are doing very well, because they are highly motivated,” he explained. “Although only a small amount of High School Equivalency students are accepted two or three per to day school there is a larger amount year accepted at Millard Fillmore night school, 40 to 50 per year,” Mr. Shellum explained. ‘This is due to the day school requirement, for all' •applicants','* *to*‘earfi .a satisfactory score, according to University standards, on both the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) and the Regents Scholarship Exam.” James Schwcnder of the Office of Admissions, explained: “High School Equivalency students do not usually score as high as most regular day school applicants, simply because they do not have the same educational backgrounds. But they arc readily accepted at Millard Fillmore because Millard Fillmore requires only a satisfactory score on the Equivalency Test or a high school diploma. After a student enters Millard Fillmore, he may apply to day school as a.transfer applicant.” — — to listen and to try and help ’ experienced workers receive additional training in order to remain as qualified as possible. Sunshine House still maintains its full drug program, which may include identifying some inknown drug, or reporting on the effects of a bootleg drug available in the area. As part of their “OUtreach” service they also might rush a person to the hospital suffering from a overdose or other medical problem. SEveraT of the current group of 45 volunteers give lectures at local high schools and some are receiving first, aid medical training. ALthough no two calls arc handled in the same way, workers are trained to get right to the problem by encouraging the person to talk about what’s bothering him. They also maintain a large referral file of hundreds of agencies which might be of wervice to the callers. New training programs will begin on February 22-24. Sunshine House is located at 106 Winspear AVenue. The phone number is 831-4046.

In recent months, volunteers manning the Sunshine House from ID a.m. to 3 a.m. daily have an increasing number of individuals disturbed by personal or emotional problems not related to drugs. People foundering under the pressure of school, distraught over losing a girlfriend or boyfriend or simply unable to cope with the demands of life, are now among the majority of callers, while the number of people calling with drug-related problems has declined. Of about 250 calls a month, only about me-third are now drug-related. The Sunshine House staff instruction presently with a three-day intensive program in role paying, counseling, and sensitivity training and explores the medical and legal aspects of drugs. Afterward, potential workers received on-the-job training working with an experienced member until they’re competent to handle calls on their own. Even ' Day school requires 230 The Equivalency Test is composed of five sections: one testing English Language Usage, especially grammar and expression; one testing mathematical skill; and one testing reading interpretation in social science, physical science and literature. In order to enter this University’s day school, a score of 60 on each section is desirable. In order to enter night school, a minimum cumulative score of 225 is required of all five sections. The Buffalo Board of Education has designed a successful program which gives an individual the preparation he needs to pass the Equivalency Test, now offered at several high schools and community centers in the Buffalo area. This program is designed to instruct an individual m three areas; language usage, mathematics and reading Buffalo program successful Jerome Yavno, project administrator of Adult Basic Education, said the Board of Education’s program is a “highly sophisticated and highly successful program. Eighty per cent of those who have taken our program pass the Equivalency Test.’- The* -pMgranf provides anindividual with personalized' instruction, allowing him to leam at his own pace. Each person is given an Initial Diagnostic Test which determines his level in reading and math. He is then placed into a small group which would help to strengthen his particular weakness. In addition to individualized instruction, each person receives a guidance counselor who assists him with his long-term plans for college entrance or job orientation. All these services are free at the, Community Centers alone. All programs connected with a public high school are self-supporting. There arc also quite a few veterans now enrolled at this University who have the High School Equivalency instead of a regular high school diploma, Mr. Schwender noted. After earning their Equivalency Diplomas, men and women in the armed services overseas have the opportunity to take college credits by correspondence, or by classroom instruction, affiliated with the University of Maryland, the University of California and the University of Wisconsin. These credits are honored by the State University of New York, and those with these overseas credits arc qualified to apply to the University as a transfer student. Those laboring under the illusion that the High School Equivalency Diploma is somehow inferior to a regular high school background are mistaken. There is evidence within this University alone that those who have the Equivalency Diploma are just as capable of successfully completing a University-level education. ’ �Nuclear power considered more favorably for energy Commission (ABC) and from private industry. A tour of the facility quickly reveals both its complexities and dangers. Anyone entering the Center must sign in with the receptionist, an AEC regulation. Before proceeding further, you are given an identification badge and a radiation detection packet. The detection packet, which resembles a shirt pocket pencil case with two large fountain pens in it, records the amount of radiation to which a person is exposed. by Richard Deep Spectrum Staff Writer In the wake of the current energy crisis, the term “nuclear” is fast becoming a household word. Although conservationists and paranoiacs fear environmental harm and mass destruction may result from nuclear waste, m6st scientists believe nuclear power represents the wave of the future. The largest nuclear reactor in upstate New York is housed on the State University of Buffalo campus. Formerly the Western New York Nuclear Research Center, Inc., it has been re-named The Nuclear Science and Technology Facility. The facility’s primary interest is in the areas of nuclear research and student education, according to Charles Thomas, the center’s director. “In addition, we conduct industrial research and do Carbon-14 dating for faculty members,” Dr. Thomas explained. Eerie glow The only access to the reactor part of the building is through a personnel air lock. Once inside, the lock seals behind you. The reactor itself consists of a large, high-density concrete box. Submerged beneath twenty-five feet of water is the reactor core, where the radioactive material is actually kept. While running, the reactor emits an eerie blue glow. Extending from the control platform down through the water are long-handled control rods and test capsules. On either side of the water filled chamber are air-filled chambers for dry experiments. The remainder of the reactor building contains laboratory and support facilities. The Center also handles almost all the radioactive waste materials from the Buffalo area. These are carefully packed and labeled according to AEC specifications and shipped to the West Valley disposal facility. What about the danger of nuclear explosion? ‘There is no way we can have an explosion,” emphasized Dr. Thomas. “The worst we could have is a nuclear Special major The University presently offers a variety of courses in the nuclear field either from the Engineering Science Department or as a special major. This year, there are only one or two students enrolled in the special major program. Beginning this September, there will also be a program in Nuclear Technology in conjunction with the School of Medicine. One of the major problems facing the Nuclear Research Center is a lack of money. “I need more personnel and some building improvements. The rooms are too small for teaching or lab work,” Dr. Thomas said. The Center is not totally state-funded. Additional monies come from the federal Atomic Energy ‘L/L/AB*****-**** PROCTOR TICKETS Undergraduate students presently have an opportunity to reward faculty members for excellent teaching through nominations for two types of State University of New York (SUNY) awards.

Slim chance It is virtually impossible for a nuclear excursion to occur. An outside fuel container would have to be dropped precisely into a running reactor and the fuel situated in a specified way. The only way fuel can be added to the reactor is with a special set of “thongs,” which are locked in a cabinet while the reactor is running. The supervisor is the only one with the key. ‘These people are experts,” said Dr. Thomas. “They’re trained and they know their jobs. They would never allow a potentially dangerous situation to develop.” Upon leaving, visitors are subjected to a radiation count check. They must stand on a machine that looks like an old fashion weight-and-fortune scale, placing their arms and feet in certain marked slots and wait as the machine ticks off the radiation count. Most of the readings are either zero or one. The maximum tolerance range is between eight and twelve. Tours of the facility can be arranged by calling the Nuclear Research Center. “We want to make students aware of the programs we have here,” said Dr. Thomas. “We’re more than willing to conduct tours.” Outstanding teaching awards BERGMAN “The better of the Firesign Theatre that in an excursion the reactive material simply melts rather than explodes. In an instance like this, known as “the maximum credible accident,” a small cloud of radioactive gas is released. Should this occur, the reactor room seals itself shut in a matter of seconds.

A distinguished teaching professorship is a rank above the professorship and is expected to have the same prestige as a university professorship, distinguished professorship or a distinguished service professorship. In addition to the honor of the position, the distinguished teaching professorship holds very real advantages: granting of tenure (if not already attained) and a salary increase of $2500. Accordingly, such positions will be granted only rarely to those who have demonstrated superior teaching competence over a period of some years. To be eligible, a candidate must have attained the rank of associate professor or professor and must have completed at least three years of full-time teaching on the campus that recommends the appointment. Nominating process To obtain nominations for the awards, President Robert Ketter appointed two committees one of students and the other, faculty. These two committees operating separately will submit a list of - nominations to a Screening Committee chaired by Academic Affairs Vice President Bernard Gelbaum. Composed equally of faculty and students, this committee wijl send the final nominations to President Ketfer. Dr. Ketter will then submit all the nominations (and supporting evidence) of the with his own Committee Screening recommendations to the Chancellor’s Office. Nomination consists of a letter to th? committee containing the courses taken with the candidate, why that candidate is deserving of an award, which award the nomination is for, and the' student’s name and student number. The following criteria will be used to judge nominations: -positive evidence that the candidate performs superbly in the classroom. —evidence of the candidate’s mastery of several teaching techniques. —a flexible instructional policy which adapts readily to student needs, interests and problems. —the candidate must be a broad-gauged scholai who keeps abreast of his own field and who uses th relevant contemporary data from his own field ano related disciplines in his teaching. -the candidate must serve willingly and ably as an academic advisor. He must demonstrate a continual concern with the intellectual and social growth of individual students. —the candidate must set high standards for his students and help them to attain academic excellence. Nominations should be sent to Jon Dandes, 205 Norton Hall by this Wednesday. Any questions or requests for more information can be directed to any member of the committee or to the SA office. Students are encouraged to participate in this important part of the nominating process. The Chancellor Awards for Excellence in Teaching will be more numerous and relatively easier to obtain. Nominations for these awards will be accepted throughout the next three weeks. Monday, 11 February 1974 The Spectrum . Page three . �i * *.

Governor Malcolm Wilson’s voluntary alternate-day gas rationing plan for New York State goes into effect today. If the last digit on your license plate is an odd number, you can buy gas today, February 11, or any other odd day of the month. If your license plate ends in a 0, 2, 4, 6 or 8, you must wait until tomorrow or any other even-numbered day. At least that’s the way it’s supposed to work. Byt many gas station owners in Buffalo said they wduld not go along with Gov. Wilson’s voluntary plan: many emphasized their commitment to serve their “regular” customers whatever the day. It remains to be seen how many local dealers will comply with the plan. Ironically, Buffalo has had | little or no problem with gasoline supplies, because ; many major companies refine gasoline in the area, ( and the city also gets fuel from nearby Canada. The alternate-day rationing, which does not help conserve gas but only makes it easier to obtain, is perhaps much better suited to Albany and N§w York City, where chronic gas shortages and phenomenally long lines at gas pumps have plagued motorists since December. The alternate-day rationing sustem is viewed by Gov. Wilson as a stop-gap measure. The problem, he says, is the Federal government's failure to institute an allocation program to insure New York gets its fair share of gasoline supplies. Federal energy chief William Simon has ordered round-the-clock deliveries of gasoline to the gas-starved states of New York and New Jersey, but no relief has yet been felt in hard-hit areas like metropolitan New York City. Mr. Wilson said he felt the state was bearing “an inordinate share” of the fuel shortage. He asked service stations not to set limits on gas purchases “except to alleviate exceptionally short supplies” and asked motorists not to engage in “panic buying” of gasoline if their tanks were more than half full. deal in -jou>n- 6jot> -3SS Page four .

One student, an observer at a recent medical emergency at the North Campus replied: “Whatever you do, don’t call Security. Call an ambulance, or call a taxi, but not Security.” The above student was recalling a medical emergency on ,the North Campus where Security had taken charge. He remembered how the Security men did not know the fastest way to move the victim from the building to the -ambulance and how they did not know how to work the emergency elevator in the building. He pointed out that the victim had to be carried down the three flights of stairs and wheeled outside in the midst of a snowstorm, to the ambulance, with .nothing more than a sheet covering him. He noted the confusion and uncertainty underlying the entire procedure. Other students who were present at the incident expressed similar apprehensions. “The best we can” “We do the best we can; where we are, with what we’ve got,” said Kenneth P. Glennon, director of Security. “All of our men are trained in basic first aid and many have had advanced first aid, but they are not doctors.” “Students object to Security men patrolling the corridors,” said Mr. Glennon when asked why Security did not know the fastest exit from the building or how to use the elevator. He said Security officers usually restrict their patrol to the first floor and the lobbies, and therefore don’t know the shortcuts of the building. “The confusion was probably due to the inexperience of the Security men,” said Garry Soehner, Residence Hall director of the North Campus. “In most cases, there has been a very good response from Security.” Mr, Soehner feels that the forementioned incident was atypical of Security’s overall performance. Adequate health facilities? Campus Security officers are called to bring sick to the Michael Hall health facilities or local hospitals when medical personnel are not on duty at the North Campus.

She is equipped to handle can minor complaints, colds, fever, upset stomachs, etc. A sample of students on the North Campus were asked: “Is there a Health service on campus? Where is it located? What are the hours?” None of those interviewed answered all three questions correctly. Most knew that there was a health service, but few (only two) knew its location, and nobody knew the correct hours. Health service info “When students are well, they don’t pay any attention to Health Service,” said Paul F. Hoffman, director of Health Services, explaining the lack of publicity. To remedy the situation, Dr. Hoffman is Health Service. He also feels “there should be a sticker on every phone in the residence halls with emergency numbers (Security, Health Service, Fire Department, etc.). “Ideally,” said Dr. Hoffman, “the Health Service on the North Campus should be open 24 hours a day.” He explained that five people are necessary to maintain one position (24 hours a day, 7 days a week) and that the State Legislature has not granted the funds for a new Health Service position in the past five years, despite the growth of the j Students and Collegians rallied afternoon in angry response to the Faculty-Senate’s approval of Jonathan Reichert’s Colleges Committee report. Both faculty and students expressed dissatisfaction with the Faculty-Senate’s approval of the new Prospectus, which many part believe is of an Administration policy hostile to the Colleges, minority students, and political dissenters. Much of the rally was devoted to exchange of ideas and strategies for countering Administration policy through a broad based coalition and political actions. Along with College members, from the representatives International Students Union, the Black Students Union, Attica Brigade and Progressive Labor Party were in attendance. Several spokesmen alleged the existence of an overall plan of the Ketter Administration to remove minority working-class and students from this University and destroy the Colleges. Others claimed that Administration policies were in keeping with a plan to do away with progressive education and perpetuate elitist control in America. Thursday University’s population. Limited staff “There are only two nurses available, on the night shift, for the entire University, and they have to be where the beds, facilities, bulk of the population are,” said Dr. Hoffman. “We can’t take a nurse from where they can be busy to where they will do nothing but wait for an emergency. Next year, Health Service will move from the Governors Residence Halls to the new Ellicott Complex and once again, we will staff according to need.” As of now, the North Campus Health Service is open from 8:30 to 10 a.m., from 3 to 5 p.m., and from 10 p.m. to midnight (except Friday and Saturday nights) for a total of 5 l h hours a day. Three different nurses handle the three different shifts. How were these special hours chosen? The first shift (8:30-10 a.m.) is covered by a nurse on her way to work on the Main Campus. This is for the benefit of anyone who falls sick overnight. In reality, however, almost nobody has shown up for treatment on this shift. No resident doctor The second shift is covered by the Ridge Lea nurse on her way home from work. “Most students think there is a doctor present on this shift, but there is none,” said Patricia Telaak, registered nurse on the second shift. When Ms. Telaak was asked about the lack of publicity, she said; “1 ordered signs to be placed in all four buildings,” and added that each Resident Advisor (RA) was given all of the information about the Health Service, with instructions to pass the information on to his constituents. None of the RA’s interviewed knew the correct information. The third shift (10 p.m.-midnight), which just began last week, is covered by a registered nurse who lives in the dorms. This shift is not supported by University Health Service, but by University Housing. What should you do if you don’t feel well on the North Campus? 1) If it’s during nurses’ hours, go to Room I 1 7A in Roosevelt, or call 2155! 2) If it’s not during nurses’ hours, and there is no emergency, call 831-3316 (Main Campus Health Service) for advice. 3) In case of emergency, there are three alternatives: (a) call Security 831-5555; (b) call the campus operator “0” (she will know who to call doctor, ambulance, Security, etc.); (c) call Main Campus Health Service 831-3316. “I think students out here [on the North Campus] are getting very good health care,” said Ms. Telaak. However, many of the Amherst students have their doubts. — — Monday, 11 February 1974 . The Spectrum .

Most educational institutions, as well as factories and other work places, have a wide range of clubs and cultural activities, ranging from scientific clubs to drama groups. Sports programs, which they call physical culture, are strongly promoted at all levels, with many schools and factories having their own sports facilities, some including their own arenas.

Soviet young people enjoy many of the same things we enjoy. They have parties in their homes, listen to music and dance, and go to cultural events like movies, musical performances, the ballet, art exhibits, the circus, sporting events and plays. We went to a number of parties in people’s homes and in public halls. Rock music was heard from western socialist countries.

Members are devoted to their socialist country, and work to build communism. Primary YCL organizations are formed around a person’s place of work or study, and among youth in the military. A number of schools and work-places in an area make up a district, of which there are 50 in Moscow. Each school or workplace has their own meetings and activities within their institution. One person I met, Alec, was a student at the school of Finance where political economy is studied. 3000 to 4000 students attend, and most or all are members of the YCL. Periodically, there are district meetings, where each school and workplace sends representatives, sometimes numbering 1000 for a district. When there are city, regional, republic, or national conventions, representatives are sent from the various districts.

Page seven �Misquoted infancy mandated that expensive campus gymnasiums were utilized. Now, however, each individual school may decide whether or not to retain the requirement. \ The overcrowded gym classes here are a registration nightmare. Every semester, hundreds of graduating seniors get closed out of gym classes full of freshmen and sophomores, and must spend weeks cajoling instructors and the heartless computer to get into a section. In a school with no other academic requirements, no administrator has adequately justified why a student can't graduate without taking two semesters of gym. Health School Dean Harry Fritz's assertion that the problem is created by seniors waiting until their last year to take gym totally misses the mark; if the University requires gym for graduation, it is the University's responsibility to insure easy access to those classes. But the requirement itself is outdated and unreasonable. One can only conclude that the requirement is designed to insure the jobs of the Physical Education instructors. But many schools that have dropped the Phys Ed requirement have found that gym enrollments have actually increased due to both more innovative and recreational course offerings and interested students taking a large number of courses. Phys Ed instructors could also teach in the rapidly-expanding area of health. In short, with a little imagination, their jobs need not rely on this hardship requirement. Even so basic a course,, as English Composition is not required at this University. It is childish nonsense to take college students by the hand and say, "You must exercise for two semesters." The gym requirement is indefensible; it has produced a very real obstacle to graduation for hundreds of graduating seniors who just can't get into a course. Let's abolish it. survey, supermarket price-comparison survey, and safe toys campaign which resulted in the passage of a new state law, have already benefited students. But for the still-skeptical, NYPIRG director Don Ross has offered a valuable compromise: If SA kicks in a one-shot allocation of about $20,000, NYPIRG will match it with a smaller grant. After a one-year trial, SA can decide whether membership was worth it and whether to increase its financial commitment. In this age of consumer rip-offs, a group particularly that fights for consumers is invaluable. Ralph sfudenfconsumers Nader has accomplished much with his network of campus PIRG's; this University should not be left out. February is a very political month for candidates for SA office. Voters should demand to know whether prospective* candidates will make a firm commitment to fund WNYPIRG with at least $20,000 for a one year trial. If SA cannot find $20,000 for an effective consumer organization out of a budget of almost $800,000, then their priorities need more they need a complete than a "re-ordering" overhaul. — — — Leaderless economy The news is not that the economy is in terrible shape and getting worse the news is the government's complete inability to do anything about it. The most blatant example is provided by the nationwide truckers' strike. Instead of negotiations being held between Washington and the angry truckers, who are being virtually squeezed out of fuel costs, business by skyrocketing Pennsylvania Governor Milton Shapp had to assume responsibility for working out a settlement. Unemployment is spreading like cancer General Motors alone has said it will lay off 55,000 workers this year but there are still no plans for public employment projects or increased benefits for victims of the energy crisis. Instead, Washington only makes vague promises about spending more if the recession gets worse later in the year. But it is reaching epidemic proportions now, and given the six-month time lag for government programs to affect the economy, if Washington waits any longer to stimulate jobs and purchasing power, it will be far too late. For every unemployed worker has little money to spend, which means even healthy businesses will soon be crippled by the lack of consumer spending. Add to that the extra $10 billion in purchasing power that will be leaving this country to meet higher oil prices, — — — and the true depths of the recession become clear. Major cities are starved for gasoline; in the Midwest, schools have closed and mail deliveries halted because there is no gas for school buses or mail trucks. New York City and New Jersey have been extraordinarily hard-hit, but despite federal promises for more equal allocation, increased supplies have not materialized. Six states have resorted to gas rationing. In this .state. Governor Malcolm Wilson's alternate-day gas-buying plan is a senseless political exercise to make it look as if he's, doing something. It might help alleviate long lines of panic-buyers in fuel-starved New York City, but is unnecessary in Buffalo, where much gasoline is refined and supplies have not been a problem. Most local dealers have openly said they will ignore the odd-even gas-buying plan unless it becomes mandatory. unemployment, trucking, In every area states, cities and towns gasoline, prices have had to scramble for financial survival because of the utter lack of economic leadership from an impotent President Nixon. While thirty White House staffers are working on his Watergate defense, the economy is slowly crumbling and that seems the most impeachable offense of — — — all. Page eight The Spectrum . Monday, 11 February 1974 . Your article on “Predicting the sex of the unborn child,” (Feb. 4,1974) contains many errors of fact and interpretation. None of the direct quotes attributed to me are accurate. Mary Meisler Biochemistry Department — Give PIRG a chance This year, the Western New York Public Interest Research Group (WNYPIRG) got screwed. In a well-publicized referendum last fall, undergraduates voted against raising the $67 mandatory student fee by $3 to fund the consumer organization, but did vote 3 to 1 that Student Association should "re-order its priorities" to fund WNYPIRG. Despite this overwhelming endorsement of one of the most valuable groups on campus, SA allocated WNYPIRG a measly $2000 with which to operate this year. They claimed that altering budget allocations in the middle of the year would have been too difficult. Such bureaucratic obstinance made a mockery of the the referendum and ignored clearly-expressed desires of the students SA Is supposed to be representing. . The problem is that to join New York PIRG, the state-wide parent organization, and utilize its valuable staff and resources, member schools must allocate the equivalent ! of $3 for every student. Three dollars times 14,000 students is a lot of money, and SA fears it will not get an adequate return on that investment. This is untrue; valuable WNYPIRG projects such as the drug-pricing To the Editor: bleery or, blues called the night Late got-into-my-stat-homework and realized only very late that the column was not yet done syndrome. And now something has to be strung together at least semi-legibly to fill a hole in an editorial page on Monday the 18th of February. It gets hard around the edges to fill space when the day has been crowded with a fair amount of real stuff. Fighting with the woman I hang out with about how to go about meeting each other’s needs, and who can do what differently in order to facilitate that process some, is something that it is hard to avoid as seeing, and feeling, as being substantive and solid. Which is hard to break down in terms that go onto paper easily. Does it do anyone else any good to hear thgt I found out, again, that I am a hard person to try to give things to sometimes? That I can get so scared and so tight that everything shuts down, and I dig myself a hole and crawl into it far enough so that it is really hard for me or anyone else to get me out of it? What use can you make out of the fact that I get so scared that I have to work my ass off at being competent? Have to try and give yourself an edge somehow, and the greater the number of things you do well, the higher the possibility that you can keep byStotK somebody around by being useful to them. Misery loves company, anyone? It isn’t all bad, or at least it doesn’t feel that way. The contact that I can occasionally make with people is worth it, because somewhere at the bottom it is what makes the world, or at least my part of it, go around. It is a source of considerable bemusement to me how easy it is for me to keep hiding my vulnerability to other people. The major target of this effort, is, of course, me. 1 work at it, apparently, consistently and constantly. Albeit the process seems to be entirely out of my hands or is it my mind? I write from where I am, but it is clear that I am unconlfortable writing from a place that is as close to the core of some things about myself I keep weltaampflagtd if not hidden. I am a closet poet but then, aren’t most’of us? One of the major problems 1 have is with the use of metaphors. My ability to reduce the world I experience to metaphors and similies is sporadic. Every once in a while one pops up in my head of sufficient worth to be polished to a warm glow through constaht use, but mostly I have trouble letting people have the necessary distance. There is a poet dead, now, but he still is a poet. Name of Robinson Jeffers. You don’t hear much about him. He was, for the last half of his life, a gaunt, hard, old man who lived in Big Sur, an incredibly beautiful and- still rather wild and only somewhat tamed area on the Pacific Coast. His poems are largely naturalistic, having to do with the ocean, the mountains, and animals. His bleak view of humanity in-general is what made him a critically unpopular poet, at least in my eyes. He didn’t sec World War H as anything much more than the current in a series of wars, with more on the way. The upshot of it being that he is unfashionably direct and uncompromising. Much of his poetry reads as though it had been hammered out of the rocks he frequently wrote about. Not many metaphors, not many levels, mostly efforts to convert naturalistic experience into comprehensible words, and draw a moral therefrom. I have trouble with his views on people. His wife died early and it seems to have left him a lonely old man. He has a poem about a crippled hawk that can’t fly anymore and is waiting to die, that could well be more about him than he would have chosen to admit. My projection is that he was really scared of people, that he could be incredibly sensitive to his natural surroundings, but that he retreated from the world of people because of his own vulnerability. Which is a hard thing not to have to do on many levels. Caring about people is not easy. Either you wind up hurting them, or they wind up hurting you, unless you are really, really lucky or is it careful? No, careful doesn’t help much, because you can’t tell much about the people you fall in love with. Or maybe you can, but 1 can’t. Post-hoc some of the places I have gotten hooked in look really crazy, others were places that were real, and valuable, and caused much scar tissue when .they ended. Which always makes it hard, either through accumulation or immediate pain, not to do what Jeffers did to retreat. But hiding doesn’t make if for me... and I won’t even try to evaluate that, it just is - The grump - - - — — — I would like to winter in Big Sur sometime. To see it in the winter when there are fewer people and those left are those who need to be there for them, and not for a few days of poking around the edges, as I usually have to be. But when I do that it will have to be with somebody. For which, at least at the moment, 1 don’t even need to apologize. I need at least the one focal person around me, scary as the process of approaching that may be. Maybe if I can get that engraved in stone in my head, and remember it, I wouldn’t have to do so damned much approach-avoidance crap. But that too is probably wishful thinking. Thin-skinned I am, and that way will I probably remain. Almost everything has its costs as well as its rewards. Sensitivity tells you what’s happening, and over the long run makes it really hard to forget about it. Enough. As I wondered earlier, does this really do anything for you? If it helps to know that there is somebody else walking around scared, take that and welcome. If not, to hell with you, you could have stopped reading a while ago. Pax. Take care. �Throu.gh t lie; ooking Glass “Chief, We’re Picking Up Some Nice Comment? About Your Statement In Favor Of Individual Privacy” by Barry Kaplan Once upon a time in a mythical land of make-believe, there once roamed giants upon this earth. These men and women were heroic, good-looking, kind and never exhibited any bodily functions. The men wore white hats, carried pistols which were used only for good, and the women wore skirts and rouge in the middle of the desert without once ruffling their coiffeured hair. Of course, in this land of make-believe were bad men and women they were easily distinguished from the good guys cause they had black hats, if they were men, or if they were women, they usually were found in bars, smoking butts and parading their charms. These giants filled the plains of the American West, creating a morality play as uniquely American as Richard Nixon. When times get tough, Americans respond by looking for easy answers, for a villain, for a hero who will rescue us from our own folly, and in a contemporary Christ-like way sacrifice himself for us. After years of ceaseless indoctrination, the frontier is seen as all that is good in America, all that is pure and unspoiled - something that even the dimmest person can comprehend. John Wayne against the Indians, Gene Autrey and his horse living in sin as they fade into the sunset, Gabby Hayes and his numerous buddies eschewing women for the beauties of male companionship, and the wistful, pretty, strained faces of the female character as her man leaves to right some wrong these are stock images that all Americans seem to cherish and revere. The climactic scene at the end of each tale was usually the same; the Lone Ranger and Tonto exposing the bad guy, the seventh calvary arriving in the nick of time to save the wagon train, Gary Cooper fearlessly shooting the enemies of justice, the righting of wrongs and the punishment of — — evil. Closed out of gym — To the Editor the article concerning physical .,"r . Regarding education enrollment, I, too,, was closed out of the gym classes I applied for. In one sense, it is not such a critical situation, for I am a freshman and still have three years to acquire the credits. However, the credits were immaterial towards that particular phys-ed choice. The ballet class was one 1 anxiously wanted, and I was angry to find that only seniors were being force-registered into the course. There were approximately 30 other people also closed out. Contrary to what most people knew, the dance studio was able to provide for another class at another time. According to. Dr. Fritz, “The problem is created by waiting until their last year.” This problem was caused by small appropriations of money for faculty. Consequently, students are forced to wait until their junior or senior year, when they are finally accepted into classes. Fredda Cohen The Spectrum Vol. 24, No. 53 Monday, 11 February 1974 Editor-in-Chief — If the American people hold these truths to be self-evident, it is quite possible that our leaders also ascribe to such fantasies. It was only last year that pudgy, Germanic Henry Kissinger revealed in an interview that he imagined himself as a lone man upon a horse the Vision that encompasses the ingredients of the American West. If Henry Kissinger has his fantasy, it is quite possible that Richard Nixon also sees his present struggle in terms of the black-and-white of the old American West. In this script, Richard could play the part of John Wayne attempting to lead 50 wagons across towering peaks, arid deserts, lonely wastes, while battling Injuns, desperadoes, claim jumpers and assorted trash that did not contain any Anglo-Saxon blood. Let us return to thdse days of yore and write an updated version of that old standard, “The Trapped Wagon Train.” It is the final scene: the Winnebagos, oil trucks, cars and protesters surrounding the White House are massing for a final charge. Dick and his company had been unprepared for the assault. After crossing six previous crises, his adopted son, John, who was in love with his virginal daughter Julie, had stolen weapons from the isolated band in a jealous rage and defected to the enemy. Dick didn’t discover the loss until the next day and, realizing the serious nature of the situation, he bagan to roll his wagons into a circle, erase all previous conversations with his adopted son from his mind, and begun to prepare for the siege that he had expected so long. One by one his trusted and faithful companions were mortally wounded by the renegades encirclinghis defenses. Fighting to the end, his plumbers were ambushed by a ragged band of outlaws and they fell declaiming the virtues of God, Country and Immunity. Mitch, Emil, Harry, Erlich the Smiling Dutch cook, Stannie and the rest of the boys were captured and tortured until they were broken men. Ah yes, poor Rosemary, ravished by those savaged by those savages until she was a shadow of her former self, yet staying loyal to the group until the shameless end. The siege had lasted for months and it seemed as if the brave band could hold out no longer. The small ambush on the plumbers was expanded into an attempt by his foster son to remove Dick from control of the wagon train and kidnap Julie. The original band was reinforced by the followers of the feared income-taxers, oil erased shortage, personal tapes, false expenditures, and the . chief of them all the mass media-ites. For months the small and lonely band had held its positions; the superior breeding and training given to the executive branch and the incompetence of the opposition had prolonged what seemed to be on the surface an unequal struggle. Yet superior numbers had taken their tolli, disgrace and jail lay ahead; the final hour had come. Dick gathered his few trusted followers around his wagon, in somber tones he painted the grim picture. He asked for a volunteer to ride to the fort to bring help that Could possibly save the wagons. Henry, his faithful aide, quickly volunteered to ride to the fort and bring the calvalry. His departure heightened the gloom, Henry was always one for the rapid quips, and he was a valuable negotiator who once sold the Indians the royalties to Trish’s book iff return for California. Dick, always sensitive to opinion, realized that he must speak to his dwindling — followers — to give them hope, give them confidence. Before he could rally his forces, the attack came, the fighting was hard and furious the bodies of Cox and Richardson, two fierce opposition leaders, fell to the ground a recipient of Dick’s excellent aim. Yet they kept on coming through a breach in the defenses — — — they poured through killing and raping as they cause looked hopeless and then could it be the sound of a bugle? Was Henry and came. The help on the — - way? Tune in next week for the next installment of ‘The Wagonmaster.” Progressive education lives To the Editor. Progressive education will not be served by maintaining an adversary relationship between the University and the Colleges. Some of the Colleges have viewed attacks on their academic quality as attacks on their ideologies. The Reichert Committee, on which I was the undergraduate member, wrote a Prospectus concerned solely with the need for academic quality and increased faculty participation. Some members of the Colleges view these two needs as threatening to the future of innovative education on this campus. The chartering process does not favor ‘straight’ colleges over ‘radical’ones. Instead it provides the necessary mechanism for the existing units to justify their academic integrity. Only after such justification takes place will the Colleges receive the funding and respect imperative to fulfill the promise of alternative education at this University. Robert Kole.

Page nine �f — Bunch AU fired of garbage To the Editor: To the Editor. In reply to the Progressive Labor Party’s letter of Feb. 4,1 wish to describe that letter as a bunch of garbage in the following respects. 1) Maybe Shockley and his gang are right and maybe they’re not about blacks being genetically inferior. But you commies wouldn’t listen to what the man would have to say if he did accept your challenge to a debate. You punks only know one word, “racist.” Anybody who isn’t a commie is a racist. That just goes to show how narrow-minded the PLP is. 2) Shockley, Jensen, et al. have approached this issue as scientists. The PLP has approached it as a bunch of loud-hiouthed little brats. Why don’t you shut your big mouths and listen for a change. You might leam something. 3) The sterilization law in Ohio has come about as a result of people like commies who want everything given to them instead of working for what they need. State budgets are only so large. They cannot afford to foot the bill for illegitimate children who will probably grow up to be criminals or commies because of a warped childhood, in which case they are better off not being bom in the first place. That would be a waste of money, wouldn’t it. We have way too many commies in this world now. CO OJ « up We don’t need any more! One final message to the PLP. Step down off your high horse, commies. You can’t get lard less’n you boil the hog. You are living on borrowed time, because the day you try to overthrow our fine government is the day you will die! The U.S.A. made a mistake when we didn’t let General Patten kick those bolshies clean back to Siberia. This world would be a much better place if he did. Say your prayers, commies. This world is getting tired of you.! Anon Narrow-minded reactionary To the Editor. Dr. Gelbaum’s attitude toward the Colleges and the four-course load is in keeping with that of the narrow-minded academic reactionary he has shown himself to be. Two years ago myself and other representatives of the Ad Hoc Committee for Jewish Studies met with him to discuss the need for a Department of Jewish Studies on this campus. Not only did Dr. Gelbaum feel that no such need existed to any appreciable degree, but he also said that “Zionism was a source of much of the friction in the Middle East today.” If this is how Dr. Gelbaum, himself a Jew, treats his own, any actions he might take in his position as vice president for Academic Affairs are completely understandable. Eric Lehman Editor Ari , The residents of Clinton Hall of the Governor’s Residence complex have been plagued with repeated fire alarms at very late hours. The problem is unfortunately nothing new to this particular dormitory. In the fall semester there had been many incidents of petty arson with the burning of posters off walls, lounge furniture, kitchen facilities and student utility rooms in addition to missing fire extinguishers. This semester, however, the two out of three fire alarms have been false and make many of us wonder whether the alarm system is at fault. In any case, we fear many people are no longer taking the alarm seriously and may jeopardize their own lives by not responding to safety measures. The seriousness of these happenings does not seem to be reflected Editor’s note: The letter in question focused on the exorbitant thoroughly investigated to the satisfaction of the students living in the hall. For example, there was an incident where two Security officers argued with students over the validity of smoke fumes in a particular suite. Security said that the fumes were due to marijuana smoke and not a fire. This was completely untrue. When a student investigated, a thermostat was found to have been tampered with in such a way that it caused a back-up of heating fumes on an entire floor. We, the undersigned, would appreciate more substantial security and safety precautions to assuage our very real fears. If no action is taken, we may be provoked to set our housing contracts aflame. 104 residents of Clinton Hall Enraged at IRC To the Editor IRC has done it again. At its Saturday night beer blast, IRC’s admission policy for guests of IRC fee payers was totally unfair. What it amounted to was IRC telling its fee payers who their friends were to be. To be sure, an IRC fee payer could bring in a only under a certain condition. The was that the guest was not a dorm condition resident. Whether the guest was a member of the student body or not, it made no difference, he got in, if he did not live in the dorms. This, to me, is one of the most high-handed acts I have ever seen. To tell a person, who by the way is paying for the event, who he can bring in as a guest and have as friends is the most dictatorial act IRC has ever pulled. guest, but Gym problems An Enraged Dorm Student they had known, due to a limit set on the number of To the Editor. entries. Programs in which small numbers of students use the gym for long periods of time, or in which gym space is simply not used at all, represent very poor planning. It is pretty damn bad that a university this size has a gym facility on par with some local high schools, while many smaller colleges have facilities much larger than ours. It is even a worse situation when the use of the limited facilities is not planned with maximum student participation uppermost in mind. On occasion we have found the gross feel this is a understatement intramurals.” We and the article sadly misleading. It should have read gym empty but unavailable because the program that “the facilities are usually closed for basketball was scheduled had ended prematurely.

Tuesday, Feb. 12, 7:30 p.m. Another challenge To the Editor: In your letter to the Reporter Nov. 29 you defended the racist lie that blacks are genetically less intelligent than whites. Referring to Professors the leading Jensen, Herrrstein and Shockley proponents of the “black genetic inferiority theory” you wrote “Jensen et al are not racists. They have approached as scientists extremely sensitive subjects and found data that support what they themselves have stated are unattractive conclusions.” Those are very strong words, Prof. Rising. Can you back them up? The “unattractive conclusions” include Prof. Shockley’s plan to sterilize blacks and Prof. Jensen’s call for reducing the already meager budgets of black schools. Hitler had his Master Race theory, and he had his “scientists” and “data” too. It was all just a Big Lie. But you say its different with “black genetic inferiority,” that there is real data discovered by honest scientists. OK Prof. Rising, where is that data which can stand the scrutiny of public debate? We, the undersigned, challenge you to produce ONE IOTA of such data in a public debate, any reasonable time and place of your choice this semester. You have already refused a request to debate.

Providing a collective voice for University’s problems by Don Eisenmann Spectrum Staff Writer The new University Assembly, bogged down until now in organizational details, hopes to get off the ground at its February 28 meeting. The University Assembly was established to serve as an ongoing. University-wide advisory body tlftt would deal with campus-wide problems. Its 87 members include University professionals, graduates, undergraduates, night students, faculty, alumni and Gassified Employees. ‘There were a lot of different voices, some stronger than others, with little cooperation among the various groups,” explained Assembly chairperson Marjorie Mix. This made it difficult for President Ketter to get a collective opinion from the University, she said. “Hopefully the University Assembly will provide the President with this collective voice. If there is a crisis,” she added, “the University now has one on-going University-wide group to deal with it.” Evolution The University Assembly is the product of three years of hard work. It was initiated in 1971 when President Robert Kctter set up a task force to investigate University government. A University Governance Committee was then formed to draw up “Articles of University Governance.” The articles were ratified last spring by the constituent groups. The Assembly was designed as a persuasive body, Dr. Mix pointed out. Although the Assembly is an advisory body, it is unlikely Dr. Ketter would oppose the Assembly’s resolutions, since he had an active role in its formation, Dr. Mix said. An Executive Committee was elected last September. Headed by President Ketter, the committee convenes biweekly, and decides what matters will be put before the general Assembly body. However, resolutions may also be introduced from the Assembly floor. The Assembly hopes to deal with problems facing part or all of the University community. The only issues not under the Assembly’s jurisdiction are curricula and evaluation, which by law, arc under the exclusive control of the Faculty, Dr. Mix maintained. Doubts Undergraduate Dave representative Saleh, supported the Assembly’s intent, but was doubtful about its future. ‘1 had hoped the Assembly would become the chief advisory body and take some of the responsibility away from the Faculty-Senate, but because of its slow progress, I’m doubtful it will ever get off the ground,” Mr. Saleh said. Other representatives felt the concept of the Assembly is basically a sound one and hoped it would not evolve non-functional of the into a show-piece administration. Dr. Mix admitted that progress has been slow. “We have to be deliberate and careful to,ensurc what we do is solid and lasting,” she said. She believed that future actions of the Assembly will prove its worth. “If it doesn’t work, it means it wasn’t needed,” Dr. Mix said.

They also work on committees that are set up to meet with foreign visitors, having students meet students, trade unionists meet their counterparts, and so on.

Many told me that it is considered an honor to be in the Party, and that only the better workers and more advanced people backbone of socialist societies. But it is also important in the various organizations, particularly the most political ones. For example, YCL members write a paper at the beginning of each new year, analyzing what they had done the previous year, and what they plan to do in the coming year. Included is what theoretical works they had studied by Marx, Engels and Lenin, and what works they plan to study in the new year. The Soviet people also study other philosophers and writers, and many from the west. But they emphasize Marx, Engels and Lenin because they feel those thinkers have given the clearest, most scientific and thus most accurate analysis of the history of human development. Not once did 1 feel that the Soviet people were trying to impress their ideas upon me, and in fact, it was usually through my questions that we talked about various political issues. The level of political understanding sometimes varied, according to one’s area of work or study. Those in the natural sciences, technical fields or arts, may not be as politically astute as those in history, economics, philosophy and other social sciences, though there are exceptions.

Saturday, the Bulls left Ohio for the third time without a win, dropping a thrilling 90-89 decision to Youngstown State. The finish was almost a replay of the Bulls 50-49 loss to Steubenville, when Buffalo guard Ken Pope was called for a foul with no time remaining and the Bulls ahead - 49-48. This time, it was forward Otis Home whistled for a foul on an attempted steal with 10 seconds left and the Bulls on the long end of an 89-88 score. Penguin forward Phil Gaston missed the ensuing free throw, but the ball bounded right back to teammate Mark Nichols, who had an easy jumper for the winning basket. Bulls argue call “No, of course I didn’t foul him,” responded Horne, who missed a last ditch shot from midcourt with four seconds left in an effort to pull the game out for the Bulls. Buffalo mentor Leo Richardson also was in strong disagreement with the official’s verdict. ‘That last foul call on Home was atrocious,” replied the Bulls first year coach. “He didn’t just foul him. On that last free throw, we had them in the right places, but the ball just bounced wrong, and their guy INicholsj was there for the rebound.” The Bulls were hampered in their stretch run attempt by the fouling out of freshman center Mike Jones. ‘The officials were real bad,” lamented Jones when all was said and done. “One time, I got so- mad, my lip started shaking.” Jones pulled in 17 rebounds, leading Buffalo to a 56-42 board edge. “Those last two calls on him weren’t fouls,” reflected a disappointed Richardson as his squad dropped their sixteenth game in eighteen decisions, including 12 losses away from home. 'The officiating was just lilce Akron. Had I not promised I wouldn’t take a team —off the floor, I would’ve done it tonight. It was just Scorers Women’s basketball squad thumps the Golden Eagles by Bruce Engel there was no reason to stop, and eventually she was looking for the ball as her teammates were more than glad to fped her. Contributing Editor Sue Patterson’s 19 points and strong rebounding by Ann Trapper led the Women’s basketball Bulls team to a 46-26 triumph over Brockport’s junior varsity squad Wednesday night. “Brockport is the UCLA of the state,” said coach Carolyn Thomas, explaining why she had requested Brockport to bring an abbreviated edition of their varsity squad. A mixup resulted in the Golden Eagles bringing their junior varsity squad instead. The contest was a non-league event. *ub-par officiating was nothing new to the Youngstown crowd, who have reportedly suffered through poorly officiated games all year. ‘That’s typical of the officiating we’ve been getting all along,” reflected Youngstown Sports Information director Greg Sbaraglia. Trapper, Larusch post low totals Patterson’s play went a long way in making up for the low point totals of Trapper and guard Denise Larusch. Trapper, who usually scores in double figures, only had seven points, sitting out much of the action due to a bad knee. However, Trapper and Pat Dolan dominated the boards by combining for 27 rebounds, Larusch, described by Dr. Thomas as a hot and cold player, had a frustrating first half but recovered somewhat in the second to finish with ten “Their varsity is out of our league,” Dr. Thomas commented. However the Bullettes contest with points. Because the game was not official, the teams Brockport’s JV was equally one-sided. Buffalo jumped off to an 11 -0 lead before the visitors scored decided to run the game themselves, as Dr, Thomas, who was in favor of the experiment, sat quietly in late in the first quarter. Patterson, a 5-6 forward, got most of tier game the stands. Denise Esposito was placed in full charge, high point total on outside shooting, largely from receiving input from several team members. She the foul line area. She hit three in a row towards the made all the substituting and organized the team end of the first half and nine consedative points at effort. the start of the second. ‘That was my first 'wifi hsVddach,” Said Ddriise “This was my best game ever” said Patterson after the game. “It was great.

Coaching was so much fun.” '? , -The “It’s been real bad all year long.” The Bulls’ problems were typified by the time Jones fouled Nichols, the Penguins’ poorest free throw shooter at 52%. Gaston stepped to the line in his place and hit both ends of the onc-and-onc situation to put YSU ahead 68-67. Things should improve for the Bulls this week. They face Brockport'State tomorrow night in the first of a three game home stand in the more friendly confines of Clark Hall. The Bulls play only six games in the “pit” this season, the fewest number of games on campus since Clark Hall opened. The Eagles enter the game with an 11-7 slate behind them, including wins over Buffalo rivals Albany (77-73) and Geneseo (94-91 in overtime). Brockport was hard hit by graduation, losing^-Bull Ron Gilliam’s name. However, Ron’s younger brotifcr, Dan returns with his 15 points per game average and another ex-Buffalo eager, Guy Vickers, also returns for the game at Clark. Game time tomorrow will be 8:30 proceeded at 6:30 by a Buffalo-Brockport JV contest. * JV Bulls experiencing defeat in road by Paige Miller Staff Writer shot Road games continue to stymie the junior varsity basketball Bulls as they dropped a 83-74 decision to Canisius at Koessler Athletic Center Thursday evening. The loss marked the eighth time that the Baby Bulls have lost an away match. They have yet to win on the road and are 2-10 overall. Canisius had beaten Buffalo earlier this season by a score of 102-69. Tom Pleto, who had 19 points for the Golden Griffs in the teams’ first meeting, was held to just four points in Thursday’s contest. The slack was picked up by forward John Sommers, who scored 24 points and pulled down II rebounds. Steve Hill, a reserve forward, came off the bench and helped Canisius open up a large lead, with a 7-for-7 shooting performance. Canisius coach Bill Bennett remarked-: “Steve’s a good shooter. He tends to throw the ball away so we try to get it to him and just let him shoot.” scoring was a poor 31-for-80 from the floor. Spectrum Buffalo’s games more balanced. Nine players entered the scoring column, but none played an outstanding game, as the Bulls Bulls fail Early Canisius picked to capitalize in the second half, center Bernard Walker up his fourth personal foul. Bulls coach John Hill commented: “We tried to go inside to [Jim] PetcrSon more.” The idea didn’t work as Peterson missed several inside shots. The Bulls did manage to gain an advantage on the boards, where they pulled down 58 rebounds to Canisius’ 44. The Baby Bulls have been averaging more than ten rebounds more .than opponents this year. After the game, their Bennett praised the Buffalo squad. ‘They had better talent,” Bennett said, “but we outfoxed them.” Hill echoed the same opinion: “We are a better team, but we weren’t up for the game. It was like a pick-up game.” could Hill give no' explanation of why the Bulls continue to lose on the road.

Rubin Staff Writer Spectrum Buffalo’s long two-month to a halt last as Penn State Bulls out of The loss was Buffalo’s first since the season opener against Cornell and drops the swordsmen’s record to 7-2, The Nittany Lions, coming off from a tough loss to Army, now stand at 4-2. Everyone expected a close match. Neither Buffalo Coach Sid Schwartz nor State headman Maxwell Garrett believed either team held any advantage. Last year, Penn State defeated the Bulls, 15-12, and Buffalo was hoping that good practices and high spirits would put them over the Howie top. Co-Captain Forman observed, “We have a great team. I think we have a good chance.” Garrett, in his first full year at Penn State, has done wonders with a team that has only three returning starters from last year. However, he was still wary of Buffalo: “We’ll have a fair season, but this will be a tough hayride screeched Wednesday night blew the fencing Clark Hall, 21-6. match.” the fencing began, the Lions took quickly control and held it the rest of the way. Only Bull Co-Captain Steve Munz was able to post two wins for Buffalo as Penn State, led by Captain David Berger (3-0), Chris and Hoppe Andy (2-0), (2-0), Night angle powered through the Buffalo lineup. Terry Reisine had the only Bull victory in foil. The Bulls and the Nittany were extremely Lions both at the surprised thumping. Schwartz observed, “I’m disappointed. I expected the foil team to win eight and they lost When Nittany eight.” Nightangale explained, “We fenced really well. We were psyched for this meet because we lost to Army.” Buffalo now faces a long layoff until February 23, when the Bulls invade Tech, but Rochester practice sessions will undoubtedly be geared for. the big home meet on March 2 when tough Notre Dame and Wayne State join ,R1T and Binghamton in a five-way extravaganza. That match, the last of the year before post-season play, will determine just how good a season Buffalo will have. Monday, 11 February 1974 . The Spectrum .

Buffalo then spoiled a fine effort by allowing the Yellowjackets to score six of the next seven goals. The result was Buffalo pulling out a 9-8 near-disaster in a contest that should not have been close. Right wing Mike Klym scored a three goal hat trick to boost his team leading goal total to 28. Klym tallied the last two Buffalo markers, with the latter one breaking a string of four straight Ycllowjacket goals to give the Buffalo squad a 9-6 lead, six minutes into the third period. - Stranges new leader The Bulls had forged a 6-2 first period beating lead, AIC goaltender Gary Newbert as regularly as clockwork. Buffalo captain John Stranges capped the first period outburst by tallying his 20th goal of the season with IS seconds remaining in the opening stanza. Stranges' three assists enabled him to take over the team scoring lead. The Bulls met another Division II rival, New Haven, yesterday afternoon before returning home to face Ithaca Saturday night.

There is no way that we can play worse than we did in the third period tonight,” Wright added after the game. Wright was baffled by the third period developments, which saw AIC outshoot the Bulls 21-8 and outscore them four goals to one. “If I had an explanation for it, it wouldn’t occur again,” remarked Wright. “1 don’t.think a panic set in. I think for our young team, this was our biggest game of the f "Vear. The fact that we had two quick goals scored against us (in the first three minutes of the third period) made us be extra careful.

Before passing the Reichert Prospectus by a 47-1 margin, the Senators voted to permit each College to offer 10% of its courses on an experimental one-semester basis.- The Reichert report had recommended that all College courses be required to gain prior Division of Undergraduate Studies (DUS) approval. The Senate also passed a resolution providing for persons hired exclusively to teach in the Colleges. An amendment Collegiate Assembly representatives. As amended, the Colleges will have veto power over the six faculty members. Any College which fails to win this body’s approval will cease to exist. Early in the meeting, Faculty-Senate chariman Gil Moore stated that although the heated debate this week would be reserved for “substantive issues in order to expedite business.” He cautioned speakers to “stick to the point.” The successful amendment permitting a College to offer 10% of its courses as experimental for one semester, and then be subject to the evaluation of the Dean of the Colleges after onq term, was proposed by William Allen, professor of History. A second amendment which would have asking that Workshops be permitted to offer credit-granting programs for three semesters was defeated, as was a proposal to increase the limit on experimental courses to 25% of.a College’s total courses. The walk-out occurred when Cheryl Gordon, a member of the Attica Brigade, was ruled out oforder because she was not addressing her remarks to the amendment on the floor dealing with the Workshops. Under the new Reichert Prospectus, every existing College must be approved by next January by a Chartering Committee • fr ' three ' 8 February 1974 percentage of experimental courses to one-quarter was defeated. The Reichert Prospectus did not originally include a provision for experimental courses to be offered for one semester, as has been the practice up to now. “Experimental courses should be permitted; there are a number of Colleges against whom the charges of abuse are argued Dr. Allen. “If untrue t experimentalism is going to take place in this University, it will have to happen here,” he added. “We arc simply saying that justification is warranted,’’ asserted Dr. Reichert, speaking against the amendment. “Are we asking that experimental courses be ended through justification? We are not. I have followed The Spectrum very closely on this, and what the editors failed to note was that the Divsion of Undergraduate Studies Curriculum Committee is over half students, including , well-known ‘reactionaries’ like Debbie Benson.” Countering Dr. Reichert was Beverly Paigen, chairperson of the Colleges’ internal Program Evaluation Committee. Only 7 out of 124 College courses are categorized as experimental, excluding Colleges E and H, Dr. Paigen noted. College E offers 29 experimental courses out of a total of 70, she said, with the possibility that some of those 29 could change to increased the “ permanent status. The History Department has more unapproved courses than the Colleges, Dr, Paigen said. “The ten percent would be good if applied to the Colleges as a whole,” she explained. ~.nd —continued on page 4— niors are still equired gym ---no ■»■» dosed classes, he noted, while “there were 20 graduating seniors closed out of every course 1 tried to get into.” Although 78 gym sections arc being offered this semester, Dr. Fritz admitted that “more people have suffered from closed classes than before.” However, he hinted that the number of seniors who were closed out may have been exaggerated. The Phys Ed Department is in the process of compiling statistics on the class standings of students already registered in Phys Ed courses. .a ‘g Y m if II Some favor elimination If Phys Ed was made voluntary for everyone, explained Walter Kunz, associate dean of Undergraduate Education, many students might elect not to take gym and the program might have to be eliminated. However, Dr. Kunz said there is “some feeling among the faculty that the gym requirement should be eliminated.” The Faculty-Senate would have to initiate action on the gym requirement, with final approval coming from President Robert Ketter. Tracing the history of the gym requirement, Dr. Kunz said it was instituted through the belief that college graduates should be well-rounded, physically as well as academically. “A number of colleges around the country have found that when they abolished the physical education requirement, enrollment actually increased,” said Russ Gugino, assistant to the SUNY Chancellor for student affairs. This is because once gym was no longer required, the departments started being innovative; ‘They began offering what the students wanted, not what the teachers wanted to teach.” Courses in areas such as skin diving, horseback riding, billiards, ping pong, scuba diving, etc. were added and were a big attraction: “They emphasized physical education as recreation not just can get sweated up,” said Mr. Gugino. Some schools in the SUNY system have abolished the gym requirement since the option was given to individual schools, he reported. The physical education requirement is “the only SUNY requirement ever mandated by the Board of Trustees,” Mr. Gugino explained. The reason? “Years ago, the first construction approved for SUNY was expensive gymnasiums. The Board of Trustees had to make sure these gyms were used, or it would have been a political embarrassment,” he explained. Hence, a two-semester gym requirement. exercise so you �; \ ■ .. Workshops to explorefamily roles in contemporary society by Marty Markowitz Spectrum Staff Writer Two innovative workshops which will explore modern approaches to social relationships have been established by Carol Hennessey, Program and Student Development consultant for University Activities. The workshops, entitled, “Enriched Living,” and “Simulated Experiences in Marriage and Its Alternatives,” will be partially funded by Sub-Board I. The leader of both workshops is Mary Cleesattel, a social worker who has served for 28 years as a counsellor and district officer of the Child and Family Services of the United Fund in Buffllo. A member of the American Group Psychotherapy Association and the Group Psycotherapy Association of Western New York, Ms. Cleesattel believes the impetus behind these workshops is “the need for a preventive program leading to family enrichment rather than a pathological family situation.” Combined concepts The workshop in “Enriched Living” will combine concepts of Transactional Analysis with Gestalt exercises. Transactional Analysis is a theory developed by American psychiatrist Eric Berne, based on the notion that man is composed of three ego states: the parent, the adult and the child. When man interacts within a social context, the communication is transmitted from the ego state of one individual to an ego state of the other individual. Another important aspect of this theory is the assertion that for man to grow, mature and function, he must have attention, be it physical, psychological, or spiritual. This need for recognition and attention is universal and takes many shapes and forms. Transactional analysis helps an individual deal with the demands of attention in relation to himself and those he meets in a social context. The Gestalt exercises will aid the group in developing self-awareness and awareness of others. It will relate the concepts of transactional analysis toward* comprehending various social situations. The major aim of this workshop is to free “the adult” from the roles of “parent” and “child” that one often slips into. Ms. Cleesattel hopes the participants will become more authentic in their interpersonal contacts by understanding the needs and motives of others in their environment. Fun and games The marriage-workshop will question the concept of the traditional male-female relationship. The study will consist of simulated games where members, at the start of the first session, will choose a spouse, lover, or any other to a more open form, a more open relationship," she heterosexual or homosexual relationship. Through these concluded. simulated roles, the group will examine the failings of the The marriage workshop will investigate the nuclear traditional marriage form and search for options that will family structure, innovative pairing relationships (both give the individual a more fulfilling life. committed and non-committed), parenthood, and natural ‘The traditional marriage form is not holding up,” Ms. vs. surrogate childrearing. Ms. Cleesattel emphasized that Cleesattel said. “A primary reason for this is the inability she will not impose her ideas or values on the group of the relationship to meet the needs of people.” Noting participants. She is only interested in an objective that women are no longer tied to the pursestrings of the inspection of various lifestyles in the search of a “better men, she said: “With the advent of effective birth control, way.” the number of children within the family has decreased, The “Marriage Workshop” will meet on Tuesdays in giving the woman a greater chance to pursue an Norton Hall between 3 and 4:30 p.m. beginning February independent undertaking." 19 and continuing through April 30; The “Enriched Life” Ms. Cleesattel continued: “With each change in life, a Workshop will meet on Thursdays between 9 and 10:30 person's desires change.

Reinstated Colleges courses Analysis SA rep withdraws from consideration by Bruce Engel Despite his high qualifications, SA representative Frank Jackalone withdrew his name from consideration for the Student Athletic Review Board (SARB) Tuesday afternoon at the Student Assembly meeting. The behind-the-scenes politics that necessitated his withdrawal sheds much light on an unfortunate situation that stifles both the efficiency and fairness of student government. According to the new guidelines of the SARB, the board will contain members from SA, one from GSA, two from the varsity teams, two from the SA finance committee and three representatives from the student body at large. Further, the guidelines stipulate that the SA representatives on the board shall not be from the Executive Committee. Jackalone was only one of two SA representatives; the other being Stan Morrow, to apply for the two SA spots on SARB. However, he was rejected due to the fact that he is considered according to the SA constitution a full member of the Executive Committee. Mr. Jackalohe represents the Student Assembly on the Executive Committee. “He is as much a member as any coordinator,” said Student Rights coordinator Cliff Palefsky, who first raised the objection. Next step in our little melodrama was that the Assembly appointed Sal Napoli to the other SA spot despite the fact that he is also a member of the SA finance — committee. Then SARB chairman Warren Briesblatt appointed Jackalone to the board as an at-large student. Technically he is allowed to do so, although it violated the spirit of the guidelines. Now, of the three members of the Board that are supposed to represent the student body. at one is Jackalone, who should definitely not be considered an average student, one is The Spectrum sports editor Dave Geringer, with his own institutional tie, and the third is a young lady named Charlene O’Neil. The result is that there are no unaffiliated, males on SARB at all. At • this point, Jackalone withdrew his name, in fairness to the students that applied for the at-large posts, the only ones they were eligible for. However, the morning after the meeting, Mr. Breisblatt gave indications that he would not accept Jackalone’s resignation, that Frank is extremely qualified for the post and that he was sick of people large, playing politics with his appointments. People of different persuasion were quick to point out that Briesblatt is Jackalone’s campaign manager, his bid for SA President. The shame of the whole affair is that while those in student government play politics, the student body as a whole is the loser. In this case' they will either lose Jackalone as an extremely qualified member of SARB; or, if Jackalone remains, they lose one of the only three spots that are open to the average student.

' Campaign spending limited by Student Assembly vote by Sparry Alzamora Spectrum. S{aff Writer the Assembly that independents would not be allowed to pool their resources together and run collectively. Such ait action would The Student A«$eihhly voted Tuesday to place ajiijii t dn campaign expenditures for all candidatjtei'm the upcoming Student Association election. This ceiling on excessive campaign spending was one of the many revisions passed from the innovative program of election reforms proposed by the SA Elections Committee, In order to check the amount of unlimited spending that occurred in last year’s election, the Assembly approved the following sliding scale: Ticket of four persons: $124; Ticket of five persons: $144; Ticket of six persons: $164; Ticket of seven persons: $184; Ticket of eight persons: $204; Ticket of nine persons: $224; Ticket of ten persons: $244; Ticket of eleven persons; $264. Originally, the [dan called for limiting a ticket of four to $200; that limit was extended $20 to $2S for each additional member. (The absolute limit was $350 for a ticket of eleven.) However, there was a feeling that these allowances plight create more headaches than intended so the new amendment was seconded and passed mirror a situation directly opposite to what happened'last year, when candidates from a major party could easily outspend their independent rivals. A $60 spending limit for independent candidates was adopted, An amendment to reduce the expenditures on media advertising from two-thirds to one-third of the ticket or independent’s total spending limit was suggested. The founder of the proposal said that it would give smaller tickets an “even chance” against larger parties, since “interviews, campaign coverage and editorials” constitute much of the representation in Ethos and The Spectrum. But this sentiment was not echoed by those who felt one-third for advertising was “not enough;” the amendment was rejected, ' , : • y.'-,:' > * Auditing problems Everyone agreed that accurate records and receipts of spending be kept, members differed over when they would be subject to audit. A recommendation requiring two before and after the election audits was soon forgotten. One Assembly member said that “accurate records” were easy to keep, and that at least one candidate of a party be responsible for their ready availability. The question was never resolved and a ruling will be made next . week. On the question of reporting violations to the Elections Committee, Mr. Saleh said that there had been “no enforcement of — More for independents Some members suggested that the $60 limit for independents remain unaffected. “Independents can’t run a decent campaign without at least $50 or $60,” said vice president Dave Saleh. One Assembly objected: “Three independents would have more to spend than a ticket of four” if the sliding scale was utilized. Mr. Saleh assured - , -•m - r Ji • _ p . election guidelines” before this year. He said the Committee would judge all violations which are punishable by fines and/or suspension or complete expulsion of a candidate or ticket from the ballot. “What if a candidate is found guilty of a violation after the election?” someone asked Mr. Saleh. ‘The election could be nullified,”' he responded. Others were convinced that any infractions that might occur may never be reported. Mr. Saleh, however, was confident the system would work: “All fines levied against violators of these guidelines shall be paid within 72 hours.” Otherwise, automatic suspension is inevitable, he said. A less biased ballot structure, consisting of full lines of independents randomly selected by the Elections Committee, was approved. Mr. Saleh termed it a “fair way” of combatting last year’s problem of placing only major candidates on party lines. One new rule was created by a concerned member and stated; “Any candidate can’t beat up another candidate during the election.” He added that this rule was never mentioned in the original program of reforms and violence would have remained legal if never stated. A rule against “buying votes” was also suggested. Mr. Saleh changed the wording to read: “No physical or monetary coercion may be used.” This rule, along with most of the election reform proposals, was passed by voice vote. Urge suspended Canisius paper be reinstated Capisius .publications .board voted Tuesday to retain the student "editors of , The The Griffin, and recommended that the suspension of the newspaper be lifted. However, publication of The Griffin will not resume unless Michael Langan, vice-president for Student Affairs at Canisius, formally approves the publication board’s recommendation to lift the suspension. Dr. Langan indicated Wednesday that he was not entirely satisfied with the publication board s ruling, and said a final decision on lifting the suspension of The Griffin would be made after further “consideration and consultation.” Canisius College officials had suspended publication of the student newspaper and ordered the editors to appear before the college publication board because the latest edition of The Griffin contained a nude cartoon of the college president, the Very Reverend James M. Demske. No censures No sanctions or censures will be iji ■ i ■ ■ .. ■ ■ imposed against The Griffin editor-in-chief Alphonso Davis II and managing editor G.J. Ebert despite a 3-2 ruling by the publication board that the editors had violated publications guidelines, as stated i. i f‘’a" r Information at Canisius, said the publications board felt the editors realized their mistake and that the student editors should be allowed to learn from their error. Mr. Donlon added that he cast the lone > •'» • Mr. Davis had- charged that the real reason Canisius officials suspended the paper and ordered the editors to appear before the publications board was because of editorial positions they had taken on controversial issues. However, Mr. Donlon reported the controversial topics an editorial criticizing Canisius College for not providing blacks with academic assistance and a front page cartoon satirizing a tuition hike passed while students were away on were not even discussed at the vacation publications board meeting. — — CANISIUS COLLEGE, BUFFALO, NEW YORK 14208 in the Canisius College student handbook. Specifically, the publications board stated that the editors should have submitted the controversial centerfold to the publications board for approval before going to press. Dr. Langan’s request to submit the “questionable centerfold” to the publications board was disregarded by the editors. Patrick Donlon, director of Public dissenting vote against retaining the editors because of the seriousness of the violation. Editor satisfied Editor Davis told the Buffalo Courier-Express that he was satisfied with the board’s decision but added that he didn’t think he erred in refusing to withhold publication of the centerfold until the publications board was consulted. In related developments, the board called on the faculty advisor to The Griffin to work closely with the staff and set up a student committee to draft new by-laws governing The Griffin. A central issue is whether Canisius College, as publisher of The Griffin, should determine the content and editorial policy of the paper. The Griffin is funded primarily by the Canisius administration through the student government.

In a meeting Monday evening at WNYHRG’s Norton Union office, Donald Ross, director of the parent New York F1RG, quelled many of the disputes regarding the purpose and philosophy of WNYPIRG. According to Jill Siegel, newly-elected Administrative Assistant of WNYPIRG, the organization had been plagued by “lack of organization and a lack of structure. We didn’t have much unity on our projects, and there was a lack of communication between project heads as well as a lack of publicity.” The meeting Monday night was the third in two weeks designed to eliminate internal discord. The previous two meetings met with failure because of basic philosophical differences between the state wide NYPIRG and WNYPIRG. Ms. Siegel said the problem was “not knowing what NYFIRG as a parent organization, wanted from WNYPIRG.” Referring to the projects, Ms. Siegel said: “We were unsure whether they all had to lead to legislative reform or not. Mr. Ross said they don’t have to be legislatively inclined.” Buffalo is key In an attempt to lure WNYHRG into the can be the parent organization, Mr. Ross proposed projects According to Mr. Ross, deal for the Student Association. For a with a or university-oriented, communitygroup the sole purpose of raising public PIRG to join NYPIRG, the state $3 allocate with PIRGs to requires schools consciousness on various issues. $3 a for every enrolled student. Since activities the student mandatory increase in Building strength With concrete goals established for the fee was voted down last semester, projects, the group then began to discuss WNYPIRG is exploring alternative their structure and organization. The possibilities to obtain funding. Mr. Ross by-laws were written to giv* the proposed that SA make an initial grant to organization’s members some recourse for WNYPIRG to be matched by a grievances and an understanding of how proportionately smaller grant from WNYPIRG works. Ms. Siegel termed the NYPIRG. After the first year’s trial run, [but] pretty SA would determine whether it was worth by-laws “still incomplete it to continue or expand the existing much on its way.” Mr. Ross described the purpose of the WNYPIRG allocation. Students might local and state-wide PIRGs as “two-tiered.” support this because they voted last fall for Essentially, each local PIRG is given SA to “re-order its priorities” to fund additional credibility in the community WNYHRG, but not to raise the fee. SA has when it becomes a member of the state been leery of granting a large sum of group. It can then take a stand on a money to WNYHRG for fear of not particular issue and gain the support of the getting enough in return. Mr. Ross feels the entire state PIRG organization. However, matching allocation will eliminate this ... the local PIRGs arc encouraged to embark upon projects of purely local significance. These projects may originate within the local organization, or may come from other PIRGs across the state, in a process Mr. Ross termed “reverberation.” With membership in the state organization, the local group also gains access to the full-time and part-time staff available in other PIRG offices, as well as hiring their own staff to work locally. As a PIRG hires a staff, community input is generated, and Reichert report. were to the contrary, Colleges Committee chairman Jonathan Reichert insisted; “It would be a serious mistake to allow a group of unchartered people to each for more than three semesters.” The Workshop amendment was defeated as nearly the entire gallery of observers filed out of the meeting, many of them remaining right outside. Senate proceedings were hindered breriefly when those outside the door shouted their disapproval of the Reichert Prospectus and University administration, and chanted derogatory phrases in unison.

The group is also seeking to increase the effectiveness of the ongoing recycling project by expanding the dorm aspect of the project, where it has been found to be most successful. A major state-wide project which has received coverage in The New York Times is the Legislators Profile Project. Approximately 100 students across the state, including about 16 from this University, arc preparing profiles on all the 210 New York State Legislators.

We are only as far west as Syracuse now,” Mr. Ross said, “and with an office in Buffalo, and a budget of around $200,000, we can have some real impact in the state.” WNYPIRG is also seeking faculty legislators. involvement in their projects.

Citing a “proliferation of courses without substance,” Professor of English George Hochfield asked the Senate to reject the amendment, adding; “Let’s try to respect the integrity of the Reichert Prospectus and the Colleges Committee as the Committee of this Senate.” The ten percent amendment carried by a vote of 29-22. The amendment calling for credit-granting workshops to be offered for three semesters before being subject to review was proposed by Carlos Kruytbosch of the School of Management. To encourage new programs and develop new Colleges, Workshops many offer non-credit seminars for one semester and credit-granting programs for two more terms if approved by DUS. After three semesters, a Workshop must apply for Collegiate status or disband. “I think that Workshops should be encouraged through a system of more reward sooner,” said one >• local doctor has also agreed to write prescriptions to facilitate the purchase of tb« wore restricted drugs. the base of support for the organization expands from the campus exclusively to the city or community at large.

A middle point has been reached with the Prospectus and the Colleges can live with ft, Dr. Paigen said. Dr. Paigen termend the walkout of the Collegiate delegation a “very unpleasant * scene” and “a mistake on the part of the Colleges.” ‘The woman [speaker Cheryl Gordon] was out of order and it was not sufficient cause to express dissatisfaction with what had gone on.” ‘The mood of the Senators was with them previous to the walkout, but it created bad feeling among sympathetic Senators she added. It was reported that Dr. Allen refused to introduce another amendment he had prepared out of anger of the walkout. It was also learned that many members of the Collegiate System were upset with the walkout and the bad feelings it may have ” created.

This segment explores alternatives tq the tenure system. r ,. by Renee Ryback Staff Writer Spectrum To safeguard the academic freedom of non-tenured faculty at many colleges and universities, “elaborate quasi-judicial procedures’’ have been established. Because these procedures have often been effective, many educators wonder why they aren’t utilized on a universal scale, thus eliminating the inherent deficiencies in the tenure system. Proponents of tenure claim there is too fine a line between academic freedom and professional incompetence to justify such a policy. At Bloomfield College, a private school in New Jersey, an explosive decision was made last June to abolish tenure. Faced with enrollment drops and a widespread financial crisis, a radical move was necessary for the survival of the college. “We came' to the conclusion that the tenure system is an inhibitor of change,” explained Sociology professor William A. Sadler,. Jr., who:headed Oft' dOftinintfei fhat pthpbSid fhe reforms, “A tenured faculty member doesn’t have to defend what he’s doing,” he said. Censure list The American Association of University Ptofessors (AAUP) has filed suit against Bloomfield, and “is considered a cinch to make the AAUP’s list of censured institutions next spring,” reported The Chronical of Higher Education. In comparison the to recently-approved tenure quota of 50% at City University of New York, which opponents have termed “arbitrary,” the percentage of tenured faculty members in each of the faculties at the State University of Buffalo is as follows; Faculty of Arts and Letters - 62% Faculty of Educational Studies -65% Faculty of Engineering 65% Faculty of Law and Jurisprudence 72.7% Faculty of Natural Sciences and Mathematics 62.5% Faculty of Social Sciences and Administration 65% William Gill, provost of the Faculty of Engineering felt these figures should be qualified by recognizing that this University is in an “unusual position” nationally. “We are looking forward to increasing our faculty size as we move to Amherst” at a time when most universities are leveling off their enrollments and faculties, said Dr. Gill. “Continuing appointments,” as tenure is called at this University, are granted on a University-wide basis according to guidelines put forth by the SUNY Board of Trustees. When a non-tenured faculty completes probation, he is evaluated at several levels, explained Robert Paaswell, chairman of the Faculty-Senate Committee on Tenure. - — — - mender 1'liSf* Initially, tenured faculty from the candidate’s department go on record for or against their colleague utilizing input from students and non-tenured colleagues.

The blow was softened by granting the there is now some Colleges a veto over the six faculty appointees hope those faculty may be somewhat open-minded.

They have tried to attract progressive faculty to support them, but 1) there are few progressive faculty on this campus; 2) the tight job situation has scared even progressives with tenure and promotion in mind away from the Colleges; 3) the Colleges have no money. Of course straight Colleges like B and D will bo able to attract faculty. But, the more progressive Colleges' main assets dedicated grad students, professional are likely to be community people and large student enrollments ignored by the Chartering Committee. Unless that committee is extraordinarily open-minded, their insistence is likely to be on the number of credentialed faculty.

Who has never felt like' a spirited and well-intentioned individual living by his wits, scampering about some solid structure like a more innocent Sgt. Bilko? Ossian Flint, the hero of Studio Arena Theatre's February production is such a character but with a weird twist. Instead of seeing him in his prime, aglow with youthful promise and spanky ideas, we find Flint in his seventies. He's gotten by on charm and wit for many years, and is just confronting one final calamity with the irony and irascibility of age and rogue caught up - experience. His particular situation (and it could have been anything from the police force to the army to an income tax bureau to a school system) is the Anglican church in which ho is a vicar. Through the years his antic personality ha* threatened to turn the "dying institution into a chronic farce." And yet, more through fear of damnation than anything else, Flint has maintained a peculiar love for the church which pushed him into its service despite parental objections. "Don't go into the Church," his mother used to say. "God isn't fun." Wedlock Flint is fun, but he's been married since his youth to a prune of a wife (how? who knows?) who. has remained a virgin (how again?). As Flint is sexually alive, he has had to find female companionship, wherever he could and when you're a vicar, this takes no little'guile. At seventy, Flint is still lusty, but he is "a tower of with creaking bones. I'm not so lust much a body," he admits, "as a relic." The plqy by David Mercer forces us to rtWke a rather moral judgment for or against Flint and once we opt in his favor, we're implicated in everything he does. We've got to admire his spunk and wonder how in heaven's name he ended up where he did. Playful people like Flint don't create friction in isolation; it's only when they brush up against steel-plated institutions that things get hot. His frolicksome spirit, encumbered by that wife, the conventions of religion, and old age, burns on. — — — Two key aspects determine the play's chance to succeed. First, there is the character of Flint. For it to work, we've got to love him and it's not atl that easy. He's an irreverent viear who, in chasing young girls, runs the risk of seeming like a dirty old man of the cloth. — Blazing star Kenneth Mars, as Flint, is entirely lovable and refreshing. He knows where to pause to smooth his silver locks, how to ramble with mock concentration in his leering eyes, and when to just "kid around" as he sings and flaps his scarecrow limbs. Familiar to moviegoers as the nutty Nazi in The Producers, he has also appeared on the defunct television series He and She as the resident fireman. Like a wry, human benediction he holds the production together. Stylization is the other important aspect Clever, stagey, and highly stylized, the trick with a show like this one is to be artful without getting gimmicky or hokey. To do this,' the stylization must be justified in terms of the story, yet it should not be predictable. Also, in order to remain surprising and interesting, it must never be excessively salient; fringe hokeyness is not hokeyness at all, but rather, stylization. of the play. For example, the walls of the stage are actually tarp-like drapes behind which (out of view) are projectors of some sort. These projectors flash the scenery on the tarp like a magic lantern might, so that a change of sceneis as easy to effect as a change of film slides. One moment, we're in the vestry, the next we find ourselves in the vicarage. This works because we don't expect it. The set looks solid to the point that you begin to admire the stained-glass windows. Our attention is riveted on the sets, not on the set changes, so when the lightning metamorphosis occurs, it's fun. Surprise! At the play's conclusion when the scene shifts to Flint on a motorcycle traveling around Europe, the tarp-projector method is used to display a host of European scenes. At this point the device fails; it becomes gimmicky as it is made to focus our attention instead of remaining a fringe effect. Lovable Mars himself uses a piece of business where he pulls from his picket a huge box of matches, lights his tobacco, and then places the lighted match back into his pocket. As his name is Flint, and as he is under suspicion of arson at the time, the move is appropriate, but as it is done in a very off-hand manner with the dialogue kept as the center of interest, it is a very good and, yes, even subtle move. — — Kudos Cast members Maureen Hurley, as Flint'* unsettlingly manical sister-in-law, and Bob Moak, as the bishop, succeeded in giving us this type of surprising characterization, with the important quirks beautifully underplayed. Especially effective is Tom Mardirosian in the role of Mr. Hodge, a beefy choirmaster. His ire at the choir is grand totally inappropriate to the and loud situation. Yet it is this inappropriateness that makes the characterization particularly effective and comic. How, you — might ask, can a swaggering, puffing, hollering character like Mardirosian's Hodge by anything but hokey and obvious? Well, because it is unexpected it is not obvious. Furthermore, bear in mind that as he is playing the scene with a choir of children, it is the kids who immediately steal our attention (just as the show-biz expression would lead us to expect). He is automatically on the sidelines, so he can bluster all he wants. And he knows it. Not confined to the set and characterizations, this sense of surprise is mirrored in the plot. There is one scene (you'll know which one) deep in the second act that is enormously shocking due to atmosphere of controlled hysteria. Final bows Giving fine, solid performances are Richard Neilson (Dr. Colley), Niki Flacks (Flint's girlfriend, Dixie) and absolutely endearing Geoff Garland (the inspector). These actors do not create especially imaginative characters, but they're sure enough and good enough in their own ways. Maybe some helpful words from the director could turn these roles into minor masterpieces. Too predictable and obvious are Lance Brilliantine (as Flint's foil), Betty Lutes (as Flint's wife) and Ray Hill (as the bishop's secretary) A random comment; the play's second act runs on much too long and, as the plot stops moving about midway into it, nothing really saves it from being just talky. Flint is a kind eulogy for organized religion and, finally, for Flint himself. He's the last human vicar, gleaming as long as possible before a new desperate gust of disinterest and mechanical efficiency blow his flocker from the candle of faith. "There are many paths to grace," he posits. "Irreverence may be one of them." Flint is fun. Flint is fun, mostly. Friday, 8 February 1974 The Spectrum Page nine . . �% . Red Stawart/Facet Overatures and Beginners (Mercury) V When Rod's harsh vocal ramblings lash out in the recording studio what you with all the resultant pod-twirling and cognac-sipping eventually come up with i$ a slick, extremely polite, almost dandyish look into England's answer to America's if not occasionally rowdy obvious lack of social grace. That's all in the studio and that's all fine and good, but put these delicious crumpets into the coffee cup of touring and live performance and they immediately crumble. From the sublime to the slovenly. And it has a lot to do with their obvious much the same as the inability to match their own musical statement Beatles when they became total slaves to technology and began creating on a level unsuitable for live performance. This can be seen in the strain hence no more put into the rooftop performance in Let It Be might something have to do with the right of an Beatles. Why? Well, it audience to hear material live that ha's the same quality of the studio recording. Electronic trickery always seems to muck up the works. An exarttple of this inability to keep up with the pace of the technocracy can be all too harshly heard in Rod Stewart and the Faces latest release, Overatures and Beginners. Which immediatefy sets up an annoying fit of schizophrenia within my soul. Why? Well, Rod (now this is from the fans-eye view, mind you) is so polite and has a certain kind of delicate sensuality that makes you all weak inside. Maybe it's just the fact that I get off on ugly, skinny guys with thick British — — — — -*■ — accents. Okay, the production is good, but it-suffers from a lack of musical substance which is so desperately needed when you undertake a live recording. That's the main trouble, with live recordings, they lack the jneat to mak§ the sandwich. On occasipn Rod's sublime throat is able to transcend the mediocrity of the musical background and send chills up my spine This happens specifically in the "Borstal Boy/Amazing Grace" nine-minute extravaganza. Aside from Rod the Mod's lung power, there are a few nice moments of slide guitar but nothing virtuoso. Certainly nine minutes is a bit overindulgent. — "I'd Rather Go Blind" is nice, but I'd rather go blind rasp on Rod. Side One is where all the trouble begins. "It's All Over Now" is a song which I used to dance to in the bars. Done here it's like a cold shower brrr: or even better a pair of dirty underwear un-sexy. "Cut Across Shorty" is such a great song that it can't possibly be ruined, even in the context of this vinyl shortage. Needless to say they do "Every Picture Tells a Story," and needless to say it's still as boring as ever. As a matter of fact, there is really no sense in going on because I didn't like the album, but I do like Rod and it's impossible to figure out when the twain shall meet.

Ya see, if you start out by really disliking an album by a group you've sweated for, then it might take you just a shade or two longer to dig in behind what is actually going on between the grooves Those bad boys from Beantown are on the prowl once again, continuing their monomaniacal obsession with the ressurection of a rapidly fading r&b motif especially that of the late fifties and early sixties, Arlester Christian's soulful dialouge and Otis Redding's sheer prescence of body, to be exact. J. and the boys are goosin' with the ooglie one mo' time. To be perfectly honest, it's a relief to see that someone's taking the time to preserve that kind of slick-footed sloshing music. Remember the Walk and Mickey's Monkey. This whole record conjures up all the sweat James Brown got rid of in the TAMI Show "Plezzzze Pleezze me." It is also one of those rarities that make you like it despite your initital disappointment. This is the kind of vinylathon that gets more exciting as the days, minutes, hours, pass and the loose-juice flllowvwvwsss. The band hasn't really progressed that much musically, but that really isn't necessary so long as they get their conceptuality back in gear. "Full House" was a stacked deck and totally incongruous, and caused them a lot of damage by forcing them into a fixed touring something they obviously couldn't maintain and still keep up stance with their development as R&B artists. Bibod shot was a step back in the right direction, but failed because of t&e resultant boredom set up by the "live" Ip. As you get'on tp Ladietwhvftdd, you realize that the Beantown-bombers are back on the right track. If'n ya don’t believe me, squeeze an earlobe onto a song called "Chimes."

Whether you’re still in medical school with the rigors of three to five years of graduate medical education still to be faced, or arc already a practicing physician, it’s our opinion that the Air Force can offer both professional and personal satisfaction hard to duplicate in civilian life. An overstatement? -Not if you consider the specifics. Take the problem of graduate medical education. It’s a period of your life the Air Force can make considerably easier with comfortable salary and living conditions. Creature comforts aside, the Air Force offers professional advantages. Besides receiving training in your own specialty, you’d be in contact with physicians in all of the medical specialties. You’ll function in an environment which is intellectually stimulating and professionally challenging. Not afl physicians pursue post residency fellowships. But if you are interested, the Air Force con- ducts them both in-house and atcivilian institutions. The physician already in practice can look forward to other things. If you want training in the practice of the medicine of the future, you’ll find it in the Air Force. For example, there’s emphasis on group medicine and preventive medicine, and the growing specialty of “family physician.” Whatever your interest, there are few specialties which are not being practiced in today’s Air Force. The physician starting his practice in civilian life has to take into account the cost of setting up an office. The physician commencing his practice in the Air Force docs not. He finds his office established for him. Supplies and equipment readily available. He has many options available to him when treating patients. For example, he can consult with Air Force specialists. He also has referral to other Air Force facilities via aeromedical evacuation. Last, but not least, are the satisfactions that come with having the opportunity for regular follow-ups, and a missed appointment rate that is practically nil. Whether you are already a physician, or soon to become one, you might find it extremely interesting to find out what the Air Force has to offer. We think it could be a real eye-opener.

In rural areas of the country, mail order has long been the accepted method of purchasing items not obtainable nearby. For the city dweller who has numerous audio shops within easy reach, mail order still offers several advantages to recommend it, despite some considerable drawbacks. Most mail order houses do not have demonstration facilities or salespeople. They don't usually pay high rent for a prime location. Mail order houses, can therefore afford to offer very low prices, prices matched only in cities where tight competition keeps profit margins slim. A short list of prices at typical mail order houses includes; AR XA Turntable: $99 list, $63 mail order; Shure M91 ED Cartridge: $55 list, $17 mail order; Dynaco SCA80Q/A Amplifier; $250 list, $164 mail order; AR 5 Speaker System (pair): $350 list, $240 mail order; Tax (on local or in-state mail order): $52 list, no tax on out-of-state mail order, mail order Shipping Charges are about $20 on mail orders. The total charge for these components comes to $806 for list prices, $504 for mail orders. If you examine the.figures you'll note that choosing a mail order house in another state offers a second financial advantage; you are not required to pay sales tax. In New York State this means an additional 7% savings. Nearly all mail order houses wilt expect you to pay the freight on your purchase. This does not generally amount to much if you pick a mail-order house near your home. Unfortunately, mail prder denies you some of the conveniences offered by local outlets. Most dealers will replace a new component if it is defective (though I've heard of instances where the customer must wait for repairs). If any equipment in your mail order shipment is defective, you must seek warranty repair youself. In most cases, this is not as difficult as it sounds. Many local dealers are authorized repair centers for various manufacturers. These dealers can perform warranty repairs and are reimbursed by the manufacturer for their services. Even though the dealer didn't make the sale himself, he should be willing to repair warranted components as part of his function as an authorized repair center. In some cases you may have to return a defective component directly to the manufacturer. Most companies are both polite and efficient about repair service. Some, like AR, are willing to pay the entire freight. Others usually pay half. In any case, remember that virtually every name brand audio component is covered by some sort of warranty. A major consideration in mail order purchasing is selection. Many major brands (mainly price-controlled lines) are not carried by most low-price mail order houses. Fair-traded items are also sometimes more difficult to find. Another drawback of mail order is the potential of damage to your equi ipment while it is in transit. Insurance claims must be filed with the carri ier and replacements are sometimes long in arriving. An important point for many people is the instant gratification offered by guying in town. If you purchase locally, you can listen to your system the day you buy it. Mail order obliges you to want at least a week A much more serious concern in mail order purchasing is reliability. The largest number of complaints received by consumer agencies refer to mail order purchases that never arrive. For this reason it is wise to deal with only long-standing and reputable houses. Rather than be accused of favoritism, I shall refrain from mentioning any names here. An experienced and knowledgeable friend should be able to guide you on this point. One note of advice; Some mail order firms may claim to be "radical alternatives" to high local prices and poor local service. My research has shown mail order prices at one widely advertised house to be substantially higher than some less "politicized" organizations. Furthermore, the highly refined catalogs issued by this house often feature "heartfelt" endorsements for products that are basically high mark-up items. <. o o D s?2? 3v CHINESE FOOD STEAKS CHOPS • • • o • • I Air conditioned Free Parking 12 midnight Open 7 days a week 7 a m.

The film flows particularly smoothly in a sequence involving a card game between Gondorf and Lonnegah, where one is never quite sure what will happen until it does. Scenes like these add touches of levity to the action. There are those films which are put together, edited, and sent off in plain paper bags. Then again, there are those films which show that extra care has gone into their production. Producers Tony Bill, Michael and Julia Phillips (The Marx Brothers incognito) have put together a film with class. The Sting fits into this latter category.

One extraneous angle in the development of this relationship was the Cat Ballou- ish introduction of Newman (the saviour who is going to settle accounts) soused to the gills.

Over the past year The Sting, Paper Moon, and perhaps even Sleuth have dealt with the game of deceit. All three were supported by good acting, which enhanced the effort, but I can't help wondering what will become of similar films in the future if the acting is not up to par, and if the "smart guys" out here get smarter through over-exposure and end up one step ahead of the action on the screen. The result may be that films like The Sting will be reduced to nothing more than Dutch Schultz films, and the American romance with the con will then be over. by Tom Lansing Spectrum Arts Staff America is facing a very real dilemma these days: it is disillusioned with professionalism. In these days of corrupt politicians, indicted lawyers, malpracticing doctors and inhumane science research, where is a soul to go? But alas, there is still a profession which has held up in these hard times; in fact, its general position has improved in the eyes of America. What, you may ask, could that possibly be? Answer: the field of professional companionship. The film industry has helped to unravel a love affair between the American public and the con man. Americans have great respect and a general inclination towards anyone who can pull anything over them;’ sort of like, "Yeah, he's got to be smart. He even fooled us smart guys." Sure, in real life there are a lot of big con men, but don't think that the movies of late haven't offered us anybody better. You have these guys Nixon, Erlichman, and dames like Woods, and they're alright and all that, but they really aren't fooling anyone. Take, however, people like Ryan and Tatum O'Neil in Paper Moon or Robert Redford and Paul Newman in The Sting, and you've got some real lovables. This latter pair is of more interest since the O'Neils were small-time operators, while Redford and .Newman deal with the big stuff (but haven't promise, always running away they always?). Stinging the underworld Developed from the screenplay of David S. Ward, The Sting deals with a "drifter" con, Johnny Hooker (Robert Bedford) and his connection with a real pro, Henry Gondorf (Paul Newman). Their hitch-up has the ultimate goal of putting the "sting" on a big underworld character called Doyle Lonnegan (Robert Shaw) in order to avenge Lonnegan's bad treatment of Johnny. The setting for the film is no less than greater Chicago, circa 1936. Now if that doesn't add to • the American public's romance, nothing will. Friday, 8 February 1974 . The Spectrum Page eleven . �II The Chameleon Corps ft Other Shape Chengers by Ron Goulart (Collier Books $1.50) An incredible amount of balance is needed to become a bird. Birds come in many styles. One must choose between eagle or starling, a diet of mice or worms, between singing or chirping. The crucial question, however, is life versus death: dead bird, live bird, old bird, new bird To answer such questions, mental balance is of utmost importance. This is the problem that besets any member of the Chameleon Corps, a subdivision of the Political Espionage Office of the planet Barnum. Even without Bailey, it is all one big circus tight-rope usually nothing more than the workings of that idea. His adventure tactics, used in The Chameleon Corps, produce stories of poor plot and poor style. In the remaining stories, however, the style is brisk due to the lack of plot; for they don't need a plot, only the gimmick. For example, there is the story of a town whose entire population is slowly transforming itself into cats. Then there is a fantastic actress who has gotten ... * act. Three cheers for ABCI The second season for TV, has brought us a good situation comedy show. (Did he say. good?) Tuesday nights from 8-8:30 ABC has seen fit to bring good ole nostalgia to the tube. Happy Days is a teenage look back into the mid-fifties when guys were guys and gals were gals, or something to that effect. The show, an offshoot of that incredibly good movie American Graffiti, is real and honest. Nasty mommy letters are already coming in, saying how awful and immoral the show is. An irate mother is quoted by a local critic: "After Ronnie Howard practiced unfastening an empty bra, and then started on the girl, my husband turned off the set in disgust. Tell me what has happened to our sense of values in family TV. Where are we heading as a nation when we offer our youngsters such a cheap and filthy TV diet?" Wow! Come on lady, you've got to be joking. Happy Days is about as filthy and cheap as the Reverend Billy Graham! The writing is brilliant (Rob Reiner wrote the first show). Enough said. Ronnie Howard and his buddy (played very well by Anson Williams) seem like they've been friends since way befora Happy Days was ever conceived. Howard, now 19, has that perfect face that fits comfortably into anyone's living room. And Tom Bosley, as Howard's father, portrays the middle-class father who's biggest tfirill is seeing Uncle Miltie and the men from Texaco, BoSley is adequate Happy Days is light, very funny, and above all it's honest. That's a lot more than can be said about it's competition on CBS (the highly-rated Maude). Honesty, not over-sophistication, is where comedy is headed today. I hope Happy Days knocks that CBS attempt at comedy right out of California and into fhe ocean. If you enjoyed American Graffiti, you're bound to enjoy Happy Days. Like the cat said, "Rock and roll is here to stay."— Howie Ruben Remember when Sean Connery suddenly became Roger Moore but James Bond still remained James Bond? Well, it is that quality of sameness despite changeability that creates an agent of the Chameleon Corps. The agents are highly trained in decision-making and self-defense yet they often tackle problems that never would have existed for them had they not had the ability to change. One of these problems is the question dead bird or live bird. America today has grown up on changes: Plastic Man, Tom Terrific, Felix the Cat and his magic bag. Superman and his telephone booth. Always considered To be so young, America has been going through an identity crisis. Ben Jolson, Goulart's Chameleon Corps agent, does everything that America as a country has ever done and more. It is all a little satire set in a background of political turmoil and underground intrigue (just like everyday life). It is very easy to assume that everyone in America wants’ to change something. Goulart assumes this and takes it one step further: he attacks the problem of what to change that something into. He recognizes that it is easier to remain on the same relatively straight path than to branch out or retreat, so he creates the character of Ben Jolson. Jolson is constantly forced to change his physical appearance and alternates between trees and television sets, humans and birds. But he hates changing. He has the power to change into anything he wants, and in typical science fiction humor, he points out a fallacy in the American dream of becoming something: what? Ron Goulart is a celebrated satirist in the science fiction field. On the whole, this seems to be a forced role in which he takes little pleasure, for he has produced relatively few works. His novels number less than a dozen, which is only a grain of sand when you view it against the 150 and more books of Isaac Asimov or the prolific libraries of Edgar Rice Burroughs and Robert A. Heinlein. In such a desert, Goulart is tost. But he has thrown out a variety of works, such as The Sword Swallower, The Fire Eater, and A Talent For the Invisible. Sometimes his talent is invisible, but not in The Chameleon Corps. All of the Corps stories have appeared in The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction. There are six stories also in the book entitled "And Other Shape Changers" which come out of the dusty pages of If and Galaxy. The combination of the two halves makes a most unique view of the psychology of change and identification, and Goulart is aware of all the symbolism he has mustered. He doesn't play upon hidden meanings in the stories themselves, but his introduction shows a great deal of literary introspection the introduction the most valuable part of the entire book. To prove the point, he splatters the first page with quotes from Erik Erikson and proves that they are actually intelligent, despite the opinion of college psychology courses. Happy Days (Oh, There are smiles) Kojak (Shiny) so used to the technique of truly living her parts that she finds she cannot live without them. One unusual story is about a little girl who lost her teddy bear in a forest. When she returns to look for it, she finds a creature that is an exact duplicate of the teddy bear toy, only it is bigger and much more alive. She makes the creature her pet and finds that it can change into anything it sees. Upon becoming engaged, she decides that she can no longer take care of her pet and tells him that she must leave. The animal is heartbroken, goes away and returns in the shape of a man. This does not change her mind, however, for she soon realizes that her pet is incapable of any thoughts other than those it has witnessed in the speech of writing of humans. One of the weirdest tales Goulart spins is that of a hopeful lover Who turns into an elephant on national holidays, which immediately shows where his political support is. Goulart's support, however, is shaky, for he represents the world state as corrupt to the highest degree. Goulart doesn't see the world any differently than most people do, except that he What can you say about a bald detective who sucks on lollipops? Plenty, if he happens to be a N.Y.C. copy named Theo Kojak. After the forceful performance Telly Savalas gave in the Emmy-winning T.V. movie, "The Mareus-Nelson Murders," producer Matthew Rapb and Writer Abby'Mann teamed upr-to create a.series focusing on Detective-lieutenant Theo Kojak. What makes this show different from the 15 or so other cop shows? Well for one thing, excellent scripts provide fast-moving and believable drama (but then, anything is plausible in N.Y.C.). Secondly, there is Kojak, or Telly Savalas take your pick. Savalas has that intrinsic quality to be able to characterize his role so well that it becomes hard to discern between the actor and his role. In the case of Kojak, his head is as herd as it is hairless; he is resolute to the point of obsession. He has one other shining quality that is very rare in the police sensitivity and a keen sense of. justice. His force these days philosophy is perhaps best summarized in a line from the T.V. movie "Where there is no justice, there is violence." Kojak adeptly uses his head and very rarely his gun to attain this end. Jerry Esposito — — — — BUFFALO PHILHARMONIC TONIGHT!!

I 11 Ml HIM II —i �Hockey Bulls hit with suspensions byDaveGcringer Sporti Editor Three member* of the hockey Bulls were suspended earlier this week by Central Collegiate Hockey Association tCCHA) Commissioner Fred Jacoby. The suspension affects only CCHA contests and will not affect the participation of John Stranges, Mark Sylvester and Mike Perry in this weekend’s crucial Division II series at American International and New Haven. According to Jacoby’s ruling, the three Bulls must ait out their one-game suspensions against Western Michigan when the Bulls host the BronCos March 1. The Bull trio was suspended after receiving match misconducts in* the January 12 , contest at Western Michigan, won by the Broncos 7-5. “It involved the captain, John Stranges, striking an official; and two other players, Sylvester and Perry, receiving match misconducts for abusive language,” explained Jacoby. “This is a CCHA rule any player who uses abusive or obscene language is subject to a match penalty. Any player receiving a match misconduct is subject to suspension for a game,” Jacoby added. — Mitigating circumstances Jacoby reported that Stranges’ enforced leave was not as lengthy as the maximum provided by CCHA rules. ‘That’s covered under another rule,” remarked Jacoby. “Any player who makes intentional physical contact with an official is subject to suspension for the remainder of the season. However, captain Stranges was very apologetic and helped to control his teammates, so we felt there were mitigating circumstances,” Jacoby continued. Bull coach Ed Wright was disturbed after receiving word of Jacoby’s decision. “John Stranges, Mark Sylvester and Mike Perry were given misconducts plus game misconducts,” stated Wright. ‘The reasons for the game misconducts were not announced or given to me in a copy of the game statistics. John Stranges’ penalty does not appear in my copy of the game statistics. I interpreted their dismissals as a result of arguing with the referee’s decision.” ‘The officials {Saturday night) came out late,” continued Wright. ‘They checked with the scorer’s table, called over John Stranges and informed him “that Stranges, Sylvester and Perry” could not play because of the previous night’s disqualifications.” Wright unaware of charge “I was not aware of the charge of John Stranges striking an official until Saturday night,” reported Wright. ‘The incident was no more than John, in a gesture, pointing his finger at the official who knocked John’s hand away, possibly thinking it an attempted blow,” Wright added. The Bulls will take on a squad they-defeated earlier this season (AIC) and a squad they have never met (New Haven) tomorrow and Sunday. AIC, after starting the season with several impressive victories (against Merrimack and Bowdoin) has been in a slump and currently shows a Division II mark of 8-13-1. New Haven is 2-8 after dropping a close (6-4) decision to Salem State, a probable high seed in the Division II playoffs. Buffalo will face good goaltending this weekend in their bid to increase their Division II record to 5-0. The Yellowjackets will start Gary Newbert, the man with the golden mask, tomorrow night. Newbert stopped 34 of 38 shots in the Bulls’ 4-3 win over the Yellowjackets in the AIC invitational tournament December 29. Nothing goes right AIC coach Pete Esdale confirmed that his squad’s slump could not be linked to the play of goalies Newbert and Ray Belisle. ‘They’ve been holding up well,” noted Esdale. “We’ve had a lot of injuries, and we’ve had a couple of games where nothing went right. We hit the post a lot, and they [the opposition] capitalized on everything that we did,” said Esdale. The Yellowjackets have added defensemen Sam Quaranta and Tony Scaringi and forward Ken Woodkey this semester in a bid to improve their lot. Buffalo will shoot at New Haven goalie Buddy Heaney in Sunday’s game. “Heaney is a super goaltender, he hasn’t had that much in front of him,” commented New Haven DSI Bob Cornell. “Many a game we’ve been outshot 2-1 and won. A lot of coaches here think he can play Division I hockey,” Cornell added.

The Baby Bulls put together a to psyche him up,” said assistant coach Scott Stcver. “We told him he was a senior and;this was his chance to be a hero”’ Pure guts Hill pleased Hill was pleased with his team’s performance. “We played together and hit the open man,” remarked first-year coach. “We’re the improving every game. Our guys are getting more playing time and more experience.” Hill singled out Henderson and forward Don Weiss for having excellent games. rare “Gene’s improving, but he’s not halftime lead, 34-31. The Bulls used to playing the point,” Hill fell behind in the second half by commented. “Weiss played his as many as 12 points, and were best game all year.

Had Buffalo remained in the Clark Hall, performance against Purple Eagles, enjoying a solid Quick and sudden upsets and the unlikely hero are two. of sports most exciting themes. Wednesday night Buffalo 158 pounder Mitch Draina combined the two while providing the major spark in the wrestling Bulls 24—16 triumph over a tough Cleveland State squad. Draina, who rarely loses by a big margin but frequently loses nonetheless, was down 4 to 2 to Viking star Bob Anger in the middle of the third period. Draina’s biggest asset is his physical strength and Anger had the strength to match him. It appeared as though Draina was in for another close loss. Then on the edge of the mat Draina got credit for a takedown, but paid dearly for it. He twisted and sprained his ankle in the process, and was forced to take a three minute injury timeout. “That three minutes rest he got gave us a chance the Displaying great courage Mitch hobbled on to the mat to resume the watch, his ankle heavily taped. It would have been too much to ask for Draina to hold Anger down for the rest of the match, and in short order Anger escaped to gain a 5-4 lead. It appeared that the gimpy Draina would presents AL HIBBLER and Jp’s TRIO at THE IVORY TOWER 460 Michigan Ave. Frl, Sat, Feb 15, 16, 10 pm-3 am Sun, Feb 17, 8 pm-1 am Tickets on sale at Audrey A Dels, 350 Broadway; Chess Kings, Main Place Mall; Norton Ticket Office; and The New Image, 460 Michigan Donation advance—3.00 door—3.50 Special Student Menu Sweet <S sour broccoli Roast sesame chicken Haddock poached in milk Vegetable tempura Vegetable scallops Liver & brown rice Chopped sirloin steak Boneless sirloin steak (9 oz) Eggplant parmesan Rice & raw veg. salad meat......

Waited for headlock After the meet Draina admitted that he was discouraged and in pain but never gave up. “I had too much adrenalin going to give up,” he said. “I was just waiting for him to throw the headlock and then I’d roll him with it. It was my only salvation. He was bigger than me and when we tied up 1 couldn’t shoot.” Jacoutot and Jim Young, the Bulls low weight stars, had performances difference as night and day. Jacoutot looked sluggish and was just not himself in losing to Gary Sorace. Young conquered the best opponent he has ever faced, Tony DiGiovanni. DiGiovanni was a small college All-American last season. When Young is sharp he looks like a buzz-saw and he ripped through DiGiovanni for a 9-3 win. Cagers dropfifteenth game at Niagara Convention Center by Dave Hpath Spectrum Staff Writer - CARR!-CL UB-BEA N settle for the loss, and still do the team a favor by saving the three point difference between a decision and an injury default. Suddenly, with ten seconds left in the match, Anger tried to take Draina down with a headlock and Draina reversed it, picked up two more points for a near fall, and pulled off an inspiring upset under tough conditions. A stunned crowd roared its approval and Co-Captain Bill Jacoutot met Draina coming off the mat and carried him half way back to Buffalo basketball fortunes continued to fall as dropped their fifteenth game of the campaign, 93-81, to the Niagara Purple Eagles Monday at the Niagara Falls Convention Center. The win broke a disasterous two-game losing streak for the Eagles, now 10-8 for the year. The Bulls started a five-forward line-up, with no players shorter than 6-3 nor taller than 6-6. Buffalo coach Leo Richardson moved forwards Horace Brawley and Bob Dickinson, both 6-3, into the the Bulls backcourt, and shifted center Mike Jones to forward to complement Otis Home, 6-6 and 6-4 respectively. This left 6-6 sophomore Jim Slayton as the starting center, and Slayton, who sat out the last few games after being weakened by the flu. The results of his illness showed; he went scoreless in his 11 minutes of play against the taller Eagles. Layden counters strategy Niagara coach Frank Layden countered the Bulls strategy by rotating 6-8 centers Mike Hanley and Bruce Watson, with 6-6 Cleve Royster, familiar to Buffalo basketball followers after last year’s melee at Erie CC in the Eagles 79-77 win, at forward. The Eagles front line accounted for 49 points and 34 rebounds, outplaying the shorter Bulls line, which produced only 21 points and 16 rebounds. Buffalo was down by only eight at the half, 45-37, thanks to a 7-8 shooting performance by guard Ken Pope. The Bulls went cold in the second half, and Pope was affected along with the rest, failing to hit on seven attempts from the field and winding up with only 15 points, high for the Bulls. Niagara, led by freshman guard Chico Singleton’s 10-16 shooting and 23 points, won the game on their field goal percentage, shooting 57 percent against the Bulls 36. The Eagles enjoyed as much as a 24 point lead before the Bulls scored the final eight points to make the score respectable. “I’d rate them [Niagara] right up there with Syracuse and Pitt,” assessed Richardson. ‘They came out ready to play, and there was no way anybody was going to beat them tonight. They had just come off two tough losses, and they were ready to win one.” Layden felt quite differently about his team’s performance, however, keeping the Eagles in the locker room more than an hour after the contest had concluded. Bulls go west The varsity cagers travel west once again tomorrow, looking for their first road win in eleven attempts at Youngstown State. The Penguins have dropped their last two games, both on the road, to Akron and Mount Union, running their season log to 10-9. Youngstown’s leading scorer, forward Anthony Mitchell, is averaging 20 points per game, but scored only two points in the Penguins loss to Mount Union. YSU showed their depth in guard Terry Moore, who, along with Mitchell, is one of the many freshmen seeing action for the Penguins. Moore came off a 24-point performance in the JV preliminary game to score 28 points, hitting on fourteen of twenty field goal attempts. The Bulls can look for another tough contest unless their shooting eyes develop quickly.

Tenure Criticism aimed at new quota systems Editor's not The following is the first of a two-part series dealing with the issue of tenure. This segment traces the history of tenure and the recent upsurge in tenure quotas. by Renee Ryback Spectrum Staff Writer Having stood the test of time for more than half a century, the ' of tenure has recently been subjected to attacks from administrators, faculty and students. Much of this criticism has centered around the notion of “tenure quotas.” Any examination of this issue must begin by determining how and why the concept of tenure came into existence. Basically, tenure developed because American teachers have not been free to act either within the boundaries of their civil rights or professional responsibilites, according to Robert R. Sherman of the University of Florida, an American Federation of Teachers (AFT) representative. As society evolved from simple towns, to a more complex industrialized and/, technological community, tenure provided an incentive for attracting' more qualified individuals to teaching by promising job security in return for better training. This, in turn, created more stimulating environments in which to teach. The need for tenure then can be summed up in two words: academic freedom. concept Socrates says After the Civil War, the push for tenure steamed full speed ahead. ■*< From the 1870’s through the turn of |he century, a milieu of groups' spring up in support of tenure legislation. The founding of the American Association of University Professors (AAUP) in 1915 provided the necessary impetus to make tenure a reality.-As [tennis O Brien, Dean of Middlebury College, recently summarized: “It would seem that the authorities had finally seen the wisdom of Socratej’... . —continued on page two— �■ • r ■ - ■ . : I enure... __ —continued from page one— notion of providing free meals for life to society’s inner critics.” Rapidly expanding college enrollments through the 1960’s enhanced the need for increasing numbers of faculty, and the granting of tenure at most schools became almost automatic for those who had survived their probation years. In today’s academic marketplace, however, the supply of talented PhD’s far exceeds the demand. Because many of those tenured during the last decade were young fa’culty, some colleges face the problem o< having nearly half of their present faculties “locked in” until the end of the century. As a result, administrators are actively searching for alternatives to tenure to allow greater flexibility for growth. One highly controversial policy which has already been put into practice is the system called “tenure quotas. ’’ Tenure quotas October 29, 1973 marked a watershed in the history of tenure. On that day, the City University of New York (CUNY) became the university to numerically restrict the proportion of nation’s first tenured faculty. According to the new policy, once a majority of a department’s members have received tenure, “specific justification” is required for the granting of tenure to others. The new regulations would provide more flexibility by generating “a more rigorous scrutiny of academic and professional capabilities of each City Univerity faculty member by his peers and college president,” explained CUNY Chancellor Robert J. Kibbee. ‘This is not a quota system,” said one spokesperson for CUNY. “A quota of 50% implies that once the 50% mark is reached, no one else can be granted tenure. The possibility of tenure shall continue here,” she asserted. Exceeding the limits The majority limitation will be exceeded in cases where the loss of an individual’s services would be more damaging than making an exception, she explained. However, “there are no provisions for probation extensions” in cases where tenure is denied, the spokesperson maintained. Figures released by the Board of 'Higher Education reveal that 4060 of the City University’s 8698 tenure-eligible faculty members (about 47%) are already tenured. As might be expected, CUNY’s adoption of the new policy launched a fresh chapter of controversy regarding tenure, and more specifically, tenure quotas. -The Professional Staff Congress (PSC), bargaining agent for CUNY’s faculty and staff, vehemently opposes the new system, believing it would devastate “the morale of our present staff. our City University’s competitive position in recruitment . . . its national reputation, and the well-being of our students.” . ., Cheap labor policy “A tenure candidate’s merit would be subordinated to other considerations, such as the degree to which the candidate agrees with his or her supeiTOfT,”"5QTiinsea PSC President Belle Zeller. Another PSC spokesman maintained the plan should be viewed in economic terms as a “cheap labor policy,” intended to “replace experienced teachers with, who would start at minimum f Maraschino | , - Canteloupe , Maraschino Cantaloupe, an evening of student choreographic work, will be presented in Harriman Theater Studio on February 8,9 and 10 at 8:30 p.m. Admission for students is $.75, others $1.00.

Dr. Zeller felt City New York City’s grocery stores, delicatesens and University’s rules already provided the necessary flexibility to remove probably most important, its ball parks. tenured faculty members. “Professors may be dismissed when the On February 1, more than 200 employees began university can show that there is not enough money to pay them, when too few 'students enroll in the professor’s courses or because of a sit-in on the Rheingold brewery located at 36 Forest Street, Brooklyn. The sit-in began after professional incompetence of moral turpitude,” he said. Federal District Court Judge John H. Bartels denied Equal standards i a petition by the workers to keep the brewery open “They should apply the same standards in all cases,” maintained for another week so that contract disputes could be Jordan E. Kurland, Associate General Secretary of the AAUP. He cited worked out. Later that same day Bartels reversed his inconsistencies in “a department of 10 where the candidacy for the decision and granted a stay to union locals 3 and 46 fifth tenured position is to rest primarily on peer judgement, while the that put off dosing at least until midnight, Sunday. candidacy for the sixth position is to require vigorous presidential support.” Committee A (on academic freedom) of AAUP has gone on record against tenure quotas: “Foreclosing promotion to a tenured position because of a numerical quota is unacceptable. Establishing fixed quotas may deprive the profession of a large part of a generation of scholars and teachers which currently populates the non-tenured positions at our colleges and universities.” The committee suggested a “long-term approach” whereby a graduate decrease in tenured faculty would result from a natural attribition. Further alternatives to tenure have been proposed or implemented at various institutions. Even the AAUP has acknowledged that tenure is not the sole means of guaranteeing academic freedom and job security.

PepsiCo, which recently bought the Rhektgold operation, contends the brewery lost 9 million dollars in 1973 and it would lose an estimated 15 million dollars in 1974 if the brewery remains open. Approximately 1500 workers will lose their jobs if the plant is shut down. The brewery produced 12,000 31-gallon barrels of beer a day. No additional Rheingold could be shipped into the metropolitan area from Rheingold plants outside the city due to contracts between the New York City Union and other unions that work outside the City. One settlement that has been proposed so far, is that Pepsico agree to pay employees a total of two million dollars in back pay.

The board consists of five members: facult y advisor Paul Dowling, publications director Pat Donion, Buffalo Evening News managing editor Glwood Wardlow, Mr. Davis, and student government president Jim McLain. The duties of the publication board, as defined in the Canisius studept handbook, are: (1) to interpret College policy in reference to student pulications;(2).tohear complaints and arbitrate disputes that may arise between student publications and individuals or groups within the College community, and to take whatever remedial action it may judge necessary; and (3) to censure, when necessary, and even to remove a staff member or student editor should sufficiently serious cause warrant such action. \lt>Tit V VI If / ±11 VVVI it Burt?

Dr. Langan, said Mr. Davis, has .already told him that he wants him “O-U-T, out.” He added that, the; -administration controls three of the five votes on the publication board; Dr. Dowling, Mr. Donlon and Mr. Wardlow. He also said that the only contact he has had with Canisius officials was one phone call and one memorandum to set up the meeting. Mr. Wardlow was appointed to the publications board a year and a half ago, and he explained that the board has conducted “no business” since that point. ‘The real issue,” managing editor Ebert said, “involves the right to print. Just because we go to a Jesuit school, we aren’t allowed to print certain things.” Librariesfacing problems by Phil Samuels Spectrum Staff Writer The management of the University’s libraries is thf %ystejn’.s defects in hopes of prawning nfcra etf£j*i«nf tts patrons. “There are two main problems aside from money;’<• explained,,- MiUicenl D>m Abell,, associate director- of, Libraries. First, the University libraries are spread out over the Ridge Lea, .Amherst and Elm-Bell campuses, as well as the four corners of the Main Street campus. This lack of centralization, which Ms. Abell termed “the dispersal of clientele," presents a great inconvenience to students and faculty. Lack of space is also an overriding concern; “We’re crowded everywhere, except the Law Library," Ms. Abell said. presently tackling * New homes The North Campus will provide solutions to both problems. Three new libraries will be situated there in tjie pear future; the Central Library, the Joint Library and the Law Library (which is already operating). All the present libraries will be in the center of the action,” said John Vasi, assistant to the director of Libraries for Facilities Planning. “The distance between libraries is only a few minutes walk,” he added. Additionally, the new libraries will provide plenty of shelf and study space. For two years, funds for the Central Library on the North Campus have been denied. According to a recent issue of Library News, however, Gov. Wilson recommended an million immediate $20 appropriation by the State Legislature, so that work can begin in the spring on the construction of the Central Library.” If this request is approved, actual construction will begin, with completion expected in 1977 Hours criticized Library hours have long been the target of much criticism. “People will complain as long as there is anything short of 24 hours,” Ms. Abell said. According to Yoram Szekely, head of the Undergraduate Library (UGL), beginning February 19, the UGL, located in Diefendorf Annex, will remain open 20 hours a day (maintenance insists on a four-hour closing), 7 days a week, from 7 a.m. to 3 a.m Mr. Szekely emphasized that this schedule is on a ‘"trial basis” until March 31. There will then be a review of library use during the late hours, and a decision will be made as to whether or not to continue this schedule. Ms. Abell said the present schedule for the libraries was based on past use. A copy of the composite schedule for the libraries is available at the circulation desk of all the libraries, she added.-. tyhat should yojr ;do about your complaints > about "the libraries? There are many alternatives. If - - *,* the complaint deals with a specific branch, see the person in charge of that branch. If you are not satisfied, contact the central administration at Lockwood Library. Ms. Abell, available at 83 1-4205, is "gager apd anxious to hear students' comments.” * . * \ * r. , . * Student feedback Another alternative is the Library Feedback •> Booth at Lockwood. All complaints and questions are considered and answered. Ms. Abell said the idea for a 20-hour day at UGL sprang from students' comments at this booth. One student wrote. "Why do you send periodicals out to be bound without keeping a set of duplicates in the library? Binding takes months!" The reply stated: "Last year, Lockwood alone spent $87,918 on periodicals. We can’t keep up with inflating subscription prices, let alone duplicates. It normally takes no more than 4-6 weeks for binding and we attempt to send materials during low-use periods (e.g., intercession). To leave them unbound might make students happy this year, but not next.” In reference to the total number of volumes, Ms. Abell said the University has “far and away more volumes than any of the other State University Centers.” She added: “But we have to, because we have many more people.” However, statistics show that the University spends less per full-time equivalent student (for library materials) than any of the other centers. “We are not as well off” as the other State University Centers and many other state-funded universities across the country, Ms. Abell conceded. Visible changes William Allen, professor of History and an outspoken critic of the libraries in the past, has changed his opinions radically. “They [the libraries] have overcome most management problems,” he noted, adding that he was “profoundly pleased” with the progress, “I’m convinced if we give them the tools they’ll do the job,” said Dr. money Allen. “Management shows both a high degree of understanding of students’ needs, and a willingness to deal with them.” When asked his opinion of the - - proposed increase of UGL hours. Dr, Allen said; “Most students are night owls anyway, and don’t need any sleep.” His major concern is finance, and he hopes this problem will also be overcome. Most students interviewed did not criticize the libraries. One student said of the UGL: “This one’s about the best.” Another said: ‘This is a great place to catch up on my studies.” Lockwood Library was criticized for both its lack of space and not enough studying hours. ‘The libraries have improved dramatically,” said Dr; Allen. “But we have a long way to go before we’re a first-rate university library.”Then he added: “But, we’re on our way.” —Barouch STUDY IN GUADALAJARA.

This statement was confirmed by Dr. Calkin, professor of Geology at SUNY at Buffalo, who added, “the present accumulation was caused by a natural process of freezing and thawing, which caused large cunks of rock to detach from the ledge. This process is also a slow one. The entire escarpment Would take ten thousartd years to crumble.” The International Joint Committee (1JC) of the United States and Canada claims the accumulation of rocks at the base of the American Falls is ugly, and must be removed.

Opposition to the measure has centered around the problem of early morning highway fatalities. The alarming number of accidents involving school children in every The emergency adoption of Daylight Savings Time (DST) for the winter months may soon be abandoned in failure. Many of those who supported foiling back the clocks in December are now having serious second thoughts. Energy surveys indicate that the amount of electricity and fuel oil saved since Daylight Savings began has been nowhere near the level expected. This disappointment over fuel savings is compounded by the growing realization that school children travelling to school in the now-dark pre-dawn hours arc a traffic hazard. No complete set of statistics has yet been compiled, but increasingly widespread reports of traffic accidents involving students waiting for buses in the dark indicate that pre-dawn school schedules have placed children in danger. The pre-dawn deaths of seven schoolchildren in central Florida in the last two months prompted local legislators to place that part of the state on Central Standard time. This meant setting the clock back one hour and negating the hour lost to Daylight Savings Time. Too dark to walk Across the country, many parents have begun driving their children to class, rather than having them wait for buses along busy highways in the dark. Two young students in Michigan recently wrote their Congressman: “Our parents have to drive us to school because it is too dark for us to walk or ride our bikes. That wastes gasoline. We have to turn on more lights in the morning to get ready for work or school and that uses more electricity than normal.” Supporters of the Daylight Savings proposal passed by Congress last December had hoped it would result in a considerable decrease in the nation’s energy consumption. Some estimated that as much as 150,000 barrels of oil a day might be saved. It was this promise of substantial fuel savings which prompted Congress to quickly act on the measure and ultimately pass the bill which put DST into effect during the winter for the first time since the Second World War.

(at Colvin Theatre) : • • SKI Local option In many regions the decision has been left up to the various individual school boards and principals. The Erie and Niagara County Board of Supervisors met early in January to discuss the problem. They decided to leave the decision to local officials, believing them to be in a better position to determine the needs of their communities. But although local principals have had the power to take action on adjusting the school day for over a month, only two of them have expressed any interest in taking action. Public School 72 in downtown Buffalo moved the starting time of its first session back an hour from 7:30 to 8:30 a.m. The quick action was taken because of the school’s split session. If the schedule had not been altered, students would have been travelling to school an hour-and-a-half before dawn. Genessee-Humboldt Junior High, also an inner city school, adopted a resolution to move the first class back 20 minutes to compensate for DST. The 20-minute adjustment was expanded to 45 minutes by the Central School Board and subsequently rejected by the representatives from Genessee-Humboldt. The situation there is not as crucial as in other places, because many students walk to school and all are junior high school age. As of now, none of the other school boards, principals, or parent associations in Erie County have taken action. Nearby Batavia pushed the school schedule back an hour just after DST went into effect. The large majority of Batavia’s students travel on buses and wait for rides along unprotected country highways.

School superintendents have pointed out that since spring is approaching, children will be travelling to school in the dark for only another month.

The most effective response to the problem has been the distribution of reflective safety tape to schools by local savings banks. The lack of pressure from local groups has not carried over to statewide and national organizations. The executive committee of the New York State Parents and Teachers Association sent a letter to President Nixon to cancel Daylight Savings Time for the winter months “when it means children will go to school in the dark.” Senate Majority Leader Mike Mansfield (D., Montana) introduced a bill in the Senate last week calling for the suspension of DST pending further study of the benefits and drawbacks of the measure. Officials suspect the energy saved is nowhere near expected and fear that the number of highway fatalities will far outweigh any fuel-saving advantages. A growing number of Senators are reportedly now in favor of repealing Daylight Savings, which they feel was hastily enacted by Congress in December when the full extent of the energy crisis was unknown. Illegal Unauthorized use of phones uncovered by billing error by Marty Markowitz Spectrum Staff Writer What began as a humorous error involving Ma Bell, the U.S. Post Office, State University of Buffalo Law School, and two Amherst students has raised questions relating to the waste and misuse of funds for telephone expenses. Last week, two students received a $9,772 telephone bill belonging to John Lord O'Brien Hall. However, the actual charges incurred by O’Brien Hall telephones for the billing period between December 15, 1973 and January 15, 1974 came to fexactly $4,867.80. The remainder was the amount that “should be disregarded if already paid.” The bill received frorq the telephone company was divided into sub-totaled bills for each phone number in O’Brien Hall. A close examination of these bills revealed some interesting statistics. Private calls Four telegrams were charged to the private number of one law professor, for a total of $96.25. Other bills were as high as $65, with calls to such places as Pompano Beach, Florida on December 26 and Aspen, Colorado on December 31. Both places are known as vacation spots and both calls were made during the winter vacation. The total bill for long distance calls and telegrams, and overhead expenses was $932.08. Overhead expenses include the tie line, a communications link within the state of New York. By dialing a certain series of numbers, one can call anywhere in the- state without charge. This supposedly is a means of saving money since the University feels a large amount of intrastate calls are required for faculty and staff to function. In O’Brien Hall the tie line is not being used consistently. Thirty-one per cent of the amount charged for long distance calls could have been saved if the tie line had been used. A system exists within the Law School that allows professors to declare and later pay for personal phone calls or those essential to their position as a faculty member, according to Audrey Koscielniak, Law School office manager. There are members of the faculty who do not give a complete evaluation of their calls and neglect to reimburse the Law School, she conceded. Tie line tied When asked about the tie line, almost every member of the Law School staff gave the same response: “It’s difficult to get through with the tie line.” A memorandum dated September 15, 1973 to all Provosts, Deans, Directors and Department Chairmen at the North Campus from Michael Day, Assistant Accountant of the Chief- Accountants Office, stated: “Effective immediately and until further notice, all tie line calls from the North Campus should be placed by the University operator. You should be able to return to direct dialing within a week or two weeks, but we will keep you informed.” At the present time, tie line calls from the North Campus can still be placed by the campus operator. Although there can be a delay of up to 15 minutes, the tie line is operable and can be used. Similar problems are faced by such campus groups as the Community Action Corps and The Spectrum. Both offices have tie line phones, yet unauthorized intrastate calls appear on their phone bills because impatient callers dial directly instead of using the tie line.

Thus, newspaper is actually the newspaper being staffed by students. The Administration of Canisius College has suspended publication of the student newspaper. The Griffin, for printing a centerfold nude drawing of the college president, the Very Reverend James M. Demske. As publisher, the Administration was within its legal rights. But some hard questions are in order. One, why was the publication suspended if the subject of the drawing. Father Demske, commented that "humor is something we alt need" and that those offended should "grin and bear it' ? He obviously isn't suing anybody, so legal responsibility is not in question, only good or poor taste. Second, considering the Reverend's good-natured reaction, was The Griffin suspended because of the centerfold, or because, of other editorial content viewed with disfavor by the Administration? The controversial issue also contained a front-page cartoon satirizing a tuition hike passed while students were on vacation., and an editorial demanding academic assistance for black Canisius stduents to help them compete with "a better prepared white student." If the centerfold was just an excuse to remove student editors who dared to criticize the college Administration, then Canisius officials don't really want a student newspaper, but a strait-jacketed. Administration-controlled house organ. Finally, if the matter is to be decided at a hearing of the Canisius publications board, why was publication of The Griffin suspended before that body (which hasn't met in 114 years) reached a decision? Isn't that a violation of due process and an automatic presumption of guilt? Or was the Administration afraid of more unflattering editorials? People who don't blink an eye at genocide in Indochina, starvation around the world or racism and repression at home seem to get instantly outraged when someone pokes fun at religion. Tolerance, even of someone who makes fun.of your beliefs, is a basic religious principle. Canisius officials will be showing precious little tolerance if they remove the student editors for an offense which exceeded the bounds of their good taste. Darkest before the dawn As doomsday predictions about the energy crisis proliferated in Decembe'r, Congress rushed to enact what seemed a simple and painless way of saving fuel: Daylight Savings Time. Hard facts about the energy squeeze are still in short supply, but one thing has become clear; the fuel saved by turning back the clocks has been marginal far less than expected but the pitch-black mornings created by the time-change are endangering the safety of the nation's schoolchildren. Every morning, young children are either walking to school or waiting for a bus in the dark. The traffic hazard created by unlit mornings is now quite clear. Seven children have died in Florida in traffic accidents since Daylight Savings began; accidents have become more frequent all across the country as well as in Erie County. The county school board here is allowing each school to deal with the situation as it sees fit; the obvious remedy would be to push back school schedules so the first class begins after sunrise. But with a few isolated exceptions, most schools have either ignored the problem or cited the administrative difficulties in ordering a schedule change. Such bureaucratic obstinenceJs hard to fathom when the safety of children is at stake. How can administrative considerations outweigh child safety? Must we wait until some child is run over by a bus in the predawn darkness before there is a public outcry for action? The argument that dark mornings will end in another month or so is a mere excuse: Daylight Savings was legislated to run through Spring 1975, so the problem will still be with us next winter. Because of the growing number of predawn traffic accjdents and the only marginal fuel savings, more and more Senators are leaning toward repealing Daylight Savings. But our local schools should not wait for the sluggish Senate to protect its children. Pushing back school schedules one hour, even if just for the rest of the winter, is the only sane decision. If just one child's life is saved by letting the sun light his way to school, it will be worth it. — — Page six The Spectrum Wednesday, 6 February 1974 . .

IRC supported this, at least until the service improved, by circulating memos telling students to write “Negotiate” on their board contracts.

As you know, the relatively recent severing of the connection between sexual expression and pregnancy has created the potential of greater freedom and richer lives for many, especially for women. Still many lives include tragic events directly traceable to lack of knowledge or lack of availability of contraceptive devices. How many potential philosophers are now at home taking care of children who were never wanted? How many children are without the love and care that they need to become creative adults simply because they have more brothers and sisters than their parents wanted or could reasonably be responsible for? On the occasion of the 1974 Campus Planned Parenthood Campaign, 1 would like to suggest two actions which each of you can easily do. First, you could make yourself aware of the range of services available from Planned Parenthood ao that you can become a source of information. For example, did - you know that Planned Parenthood gives advice on vasectomies and tubal ligations? Second, you could make a contribution, no matter how small, to the vital humanitarian work of this organization. By the way, there is recent scientific evidence that "intelligence” is inversely related to family size. In particular, the average “intelligence” of persons from families of a given size is greaterthan that of persons from larger families. Moreover, within a given family size, the older children are on the average more “intelligent” than the younger. These results are based on a samply of 400.000 than the younger.

John Corcoran �ing In Outside by Clem Colucd Editor’s note: Vast and tapid'changes in society and human relations in the last several years have taken their toll on countless institutions Especially outdated in this age of counterculture and its proliferating liberation movements is that system of amenities we call etiquette. Amy Vanderbilt and Emily Post are out of date and those who would be well-mannered must turn elsewhere for guidance. What follows are excerpts from my forthcoming book on etiquette for the new age. These excerpts deal with the problems caused by changes in relations between the sexes. Men, Women and Others Without doubt, the thorniest problem for those who would be well-mannered is the women’s liberation movement. The nub of the difficulty is not that the movement has started but that it has not finished. Before the movement started, tradition was well established and problems were few. After the movement has succeeded and passed into history, new systems of etiquette people opening their own doors, lighting their own cigarettes, etc. will take care of any questions. But for us, caught as we are in the middle of the revolution, matters are in a state of flux. No one can be sure who is liberated and who is not and vary one’s manners accordingly. The problem is most severe with casual acquaintances. A man who knows a woman well knows if she prefers to open her own doors, but what does one do with a casual acquaintance? The goal of etiquette then, is to prevent embarassment in this ambiguous age a goal not noble, perhaps, but necessary. - - ■ — Not our fault To the Editor. In his letter of February 4, Danny Rosenfeld complained of the high cost of campaigning fprS.A. office. Ill particular, he mentioned that he was “dismayed” to leam the prices that University Press charges for publicity work. Nobody .ismore dismayed abopt t,be high costs df puijfcity, «•*».' aim to provide the .best possible work at the lowest possible costs. But in this age of inflation our costs, too are rising. Paper costs have skyrocketed over the past year and continue to, with no relief in sight. In some cases our staff members are working for one-half the salary they could get “on the outside.” Yes, prices are high. But unpleasant as that fact is, it seems to be an unavoidable one. We believe that an equitable way must be found to help all candidates meet the costs of bringing their ideas and goals before the general student body. Regardless of how the issue of campaign financing is resolved, University Press will continue trying to hold the line on prices, while insuring the production of work consistent with our standards of quality. ‘ Mary E. Warner Buildings: All persons, of any sex, when entering or leaving a building, should briefly hold the door for the person behind, whether man or woman. A man should tarry somewhat longer if the person behind him is a woman, but neither long enough to expose himself to the charge of being a sexist pig if the .woman is liberated, nor briefly enough to expose oneself to the charge of being an ill-mannered boor if the woman is not liberated. A woman who wishes to may hold the door as long as she desires for anyone of any sex. v. CareuSince one cannot unobtrusively open a car door for another, this presents more of i problem. A liberated Woman would' be wise to relieve the befuddled gentleman’s anxiety by getting to the door first and opening it herself. As this is not always practicable, it would be advisable for the gentleman always to lock the doors (a prudent practice in this crime-ridden society). He may then either enter the car from his side and unlock the passenger’s door or unlock the passenger door from the outside, -after which no one can object to his opening it. A dear friend of mine who makes her living dancing on stage while wearing as litTle clothing as the New York State Penal Code allows once complained to me about “how guys stopped talking to you and started talking to your tits.” Whether a woman chores to gob raless is a matter of comfort and discretion. It does, however, create a problem that was well, if earthily, stated above. There are, of course, the terminally uncouth who will always stare and drool at any revealed portion of a woman’s body. But many men who mean well enough will unthinkingly focus th«r gaze about a foot lower than they ought to. It is bad manners to correct another’s bad manners without extreme provocation, so unless it is obvious that the man in question is staring at the woman’s chest because he’s an ill-mannered chauvinist pig, the well-mannered woman would do well to avoid remarks like: “I have a face too, you know.” Keeping in mind that it takes time for people to get used to these things, the well-mannered woman should avoid letting the man'know she knows what he’s looking at while alerting him to what he is doing. Such devices as squirting flowers can be highly effective. Miscellaneous 1. The age-old controversy over who walks where on the streets can now be ended.Some used to say that the man should walk on the outside to protect the woman from getting splashed by cars. Others argued that the man should walk on the inside a. custom dating from the days when people threw garbage out of the window. In this half-liberated age, the simple solution is to ignore the question entirely and walk as you please. 2. Lighting cigarettes: Here one must take a stand on principle despite the objections of feminists. Anyone who looks will find that men light other men’s cigarettes all the time, so it is entirely proper for a man to light a woman’s cigarette. Women’s liberationists who wish to make a point should not start a political discussion but simply light the man’s cigarette at the first opportunity and without comment. 3. Sex: In an age of sexual liberation one is free to indulge in sexual intercourse with anyone who consents. For the man this simply makes things easier (men being the beasts they are). For the women this eliminates the obligation to refuse someone’s advances if she finds him attractive. On - — thfe other’KaSid, thertf is no obligation tb-fomicate, either, so the woman may refuse as she wishes. If the man and woman are merely casual acquaintances, explanation of the refusal is necessary unless the woman chooses. It is also bad manners to make a detailed and moralistic explanation. Above all, avoid explanations like: “I’m saving myself for my husband. The most precious thing I can give him is my virginity.” Anyone who seriously believes that is probably right.

STATE Natural gas in Upper N.Y. State AUBURN, N.Y. (UPI) A private, seven-member consortium is negotiating for a 28,000-acre natural gas field in Texas and for two additional fields in the Southwest, Paul W. Lattimore, mayor of this central New York city, said Sunday. None of the fields, now owned by independent businessmen and not controlled by major gas or oil companies, is now being pumped. Lattimore said a geologist his group hired called the field “a hummer,” or one with very high pressure, indicating a large amount of trapped natural gas. “Many of these fields exist, but the major oil firms are sitting on them,” Lattimore said. If the purchase comes through, be said, the average daily output of the 850 wells planned for the land would be 31.3 billion cubic feet. - Boycott of Israeli Benefit game ROCHESTER, N.Y.(UPl) Three black University of Rochester basketball players said they will not take part Monday night in their team’s benefit exhibition game against the touring Israeli national team. Funds raised by the game will be used exclusively for athletic facilities and equipment for Israeli athletic teams. The three players, Ken Carnes, Damian Upson, and Gordon Turner, said that several student and black campus groups convinced them that the game has political - overtones. The players, all starters, said they believed the university was violating its neutral stand in scheduling the game against the Israeli team. The three are the only black plqyers op the team.

The Spectrum Wednesday 6 February 1974 . g^e- �Proposed hockey rink at Amherstfaint possibility r. by Dave Geringer Sprts Editor A v take something else out. We decided that we would not put the rink in. There is an ice rink almost adjacent to the campus [Amherst Recreation Center], and an ice rink almost four miles down the road [Clearfield]McIntyre added. proposed rink that was to be constructed on the Amherst campus sometime in the future has been put off indefinitely. The possibility that the rink will ever be built has become more remote. “We didn’t recommend it,” said Associate Dean Martin McIntyre in explaining the decision. “However, it is quite possible that eventually we will have a rink.” Dr. McIntyre cited cost as one factor in the decision. “A rink is terribly expensive,” stated Dr. McIntyre. “It occupies an awful lot of space, and we were told that our phase two [the entire gymnasium facility which would have included the rink] had to come within 143,298 square feet [the approximate area of the rink], you have to _ Rink a profit-maker? Dr. McIntyre also indicated that a rink might not be economically successful. “You assume that it’s a real profit-maker. That depends on how much hockey practice, intramurals and recreation would take out of it. Any rental fees accrued would not go into the athletic department till. It goes into a general hind for receipts,” added McIntyre. Dr. McIntyre felt a less expensive building could be constructed. “When you put it [the rink] into an area with bricks and stone, it is much more expensive,” said McIntyre. “It stands to reason that an Lackluster swimming signals Bulls’ defeat Spectrum Staff Writer In a match that saw the Clark Gym pool quieter than Lockwood the Cortland Red Library, Dragons defeated the swimming Bulls 61-52 on Saturday, Both teams performed .with similar blandness as Cortland coasted to their second victory, while the Bulls dropped to 1-6.

Buffalo coach BiU’Sartlford thought that one of the reasons the Bulls did not win was their lack of spirit.” It’s hard to get a team up when they think they’re lose,” commented to going Sanford. “They look at the previous times of their opponents, and when they know they can’t win, they turn in mediocre performances,” Sanford added. Buffalo also continued to do well in- the- -106 and 200-yard events Burt freestyle as Zweigenhaft scored easy victories in both races. Ralph Hoffman kept up with the leaders for the first 100 yards, but faded in the final half. However, Hoffman had only swam the 200 for the first time this year on Wednesday night against Alfred. Coach Sanford “Hoffman is first remarked; learning how to swim the 200. He has to leam to pace himself.” This afternoon the Bulls face the Bulls drop medley again As had been the case in their previous meets, the Bulls dropped the first event, the 400-yard medley. The two relays in a meet are very important because the winner is awarded the maximum Additional rinks? Dr. McIntyre explored the fact that other -SUMY schools (Geneseo and Cortland) had built campus rinks without a hockey program [Cortland has instituted a program]. “I think that, being a university center, we should have more than one ice rink,” stated Dr. McIntyre. “I want to build a competitive rink, an instructional rink and a curling area. Those schools [Cortland and Geneseo] don’t serve a projected student population of 40,000 and their community doesn’t have a population the size of ours. The facility at Geneseo wouldn’t suit our needs, while Cortland has a student population of eight to ten thousand and a community of 12 to 15,000. Also, their rink was started long ago when money wasn’t as tight. We are now in the tight money episode,” added McIntyre. Dr. McIntyre also discussed the difference in the programs. “We have a program that other schools don’t have,” stated Dr. McIntyre. “We are the only state Wright displeased Bull coach Ed Wright was far from pleased with the decision to eliminate the rink from the building that would house facilities for wrestling, fencing and gymnastics and several swimming pools, among other items. ‘The fact that it [the rink] is being eliminated now is indicative of the department’s feeling on the priority of the hockey program,” commented Wright. ‘The fact that the student government is being asked to foot the bill for facilities rental where the state was going to foot the bill in building the rink indicates a wide diversity of opinion. There should be some student input. I can fully understand the necessity of the rest of the facility, but it appears that the building has frills. If the hockey program needs any impetus, it needs it now with tuition waivers gone. What is planned is needed, and what was eliminated is also needed. It’s just a question of priorities,” concluded-’Wright. Fencing total, of 7 points while the other evfents arc ‘scdred in sequence of 5*3*1. The' problem for Buffalo in the medley has been the butterfly, where the Bulls have had constant problems. Against Cortland, butterflier Bob Kane was easily the best in the medley, i One of the Bulls strong events has been the breaststroke.

The Bulls next home meet will be Friday night, when Buffalo hosts Albany. Bulls defeat Hobart easily by David J. Rubin Spectrum Staff Writer The fencing Bulls made it seven wins in a row as they beat Hobart for the second time this season 18- on Saturday. Buffalo had beaten the Statesmen 19- in the first meeting on January 16 in Buffalo. The Bulls’ record now stands at 7-l and Buffalo is reaching its peak while heading into the difficult part of the schedule. Although Buffalo won handily and fenced fairly well, there were no truly outstanding performances, Co-captains Steve Munz and Howie Forman, who swept three bouts each in the first match, won two matches before being benched in favor of less experienced fencers. Hobart’s Bill Goldberg swept 9ab#e..boutfc-Geidh«tg..Mr.g9aW*? earlier meeting. The most surprising performance came from Bulls’’ftpshman Kevin Crane. On January. 24,. he made his first varsity performance at Brock, where he tallied a 3-1 record. Saturday, he scored two solid wins on foil as he was touched only’three times. The scoring of the bout was virtually the same as it had been in the first match against the Statesmen. The foil team lost only once as Terry Reisine was the victim again. Epee won six and lost three for the second time as Marty Schiffs nine bout winning streak was stopped. Pluffe notorious Sabre dropped from 5-4 to 4-5 due in part to directing of Arthur Pluffe. Pluffe made many questionable calls, particularly in sabre, yet the Bulls agreed afterwards that he has mellowed a bit since * a8t y ear Once again, Hobart did not particularly scare the Bull squad.

CAREERS IN ENGINEERING The Role of Chemical Engineers in Meeting the Challenges of the Future The rapid growth of technology, which has vastly improved the quality of life of a significant fraction of the world's population, has also brought mankind to a confrontation with many problems of immense proportions and crucial importance. We have come to realize that our world is finite. Our reserves of oil and natural gas are decreasing each year. The wastes from our industrial society remain with us, polluting our air & water. The evergrowing world population requires more and more food, and the pressures of living in closely populated areas take their toll on our health. These are problems which cannot be escaped; they must be solved.

Wednesday, 6 February 1974 The Spectrum Page nine . . �Pictures talk. Some little boys don’t. Some inner-city ghettos have special schools. For little boys who don’t talk. Not mute little boys. But children so withdrawn, so afraid of failure, they cannot make the slightest attempt to do anything at which they might fail. Some don’t talk. Some don’t listen. Most don’t behave. And all of them don’t learn. One day someone asked us to help. Through Kodak, cameras and film were distributed to teachers. The teachers gave the cameras to the kids and told them to take pictures. And then the miracle. Little boys who had never said anything, looked at the pictures and began to talk. They said “This is my house.” “This is my dog.” “This is where I like *c> to hide.” They began to explain, to describe, to communicate. And once the channels of communication had been opened, they began to learn. We’re helping the children of the inner-city. And we’re also helping the adults. We’re involved in inner-city job programs. To train unskilled people in useful jobs. What does Kodak stand to gain from this? Well, we’re showing how our products can help a teacher—and maybe creating a whole new market. And we’re also cultivating young customers who will someday buy their own cameras and film. But more than that, we’re cultivating alert, educated citizens. Who will someday be responsible for our society. After all, our business depends on our society. So we care what happens to it.

Scientists, however, are now conducting experiments which are bringing this dream closer to reality, and hold profound implications for the future of genetic research. Three German geneticists have been able to separate the two chromosomes in sperm which are responsible for determining the sex of the fetus. Whereas women only produce the female-producing, or X chromosome, male sperm contains chromosomes for both sexes: the X chromosome and the Y chromosome, which is necessary for the birth of a male. The scientists suspended the sperm in analbumin solution and those sperm cells containing Y chromosomes settled to the bottom of the solution. The concentration of these cells was 85% pure. Therefore, when one of these sperm cells is joined with the female ovum, there is an 85% chance of producing a male. Fewer faculty are f WM J 0 Artificial insemination necessary This means of predetermining the sex of an unborn child is still in its early stages, and pregnancy must be induced by artificial insemination to guarantee specific results. But such a discovery, as well as other research being conducted in the field of human genetics, has raised serious ethical and moral 11 wm w —* by Gary Cohn Campus Editor Why isn’t there significant faculty involvement in the Colleges? Since its inception, the Colleges have offered courses taught by community lecturers, graduate students, undergraduates and a rapidly diminishing number of faculty members. Various explanations have -been offered for the relatively small number of faculty teaching in the Colleges. They range from a lack of rewards for faculty to the fear of losing tenure to the questions of legitimacy in the Colleges. Substantial faculty involvement in the Colleges is a top priority cited in the recently-released Colleges Committee report. The report calls for a sweeping revision of the existing Collegiate system. “It is to be the norm that regular University faculty will actively participate in each College program,” the Colleges Committee report stated. To promote faculty involvement, the report called for “funds to compensate these faculty by purchasing released time from their departmental responsibilities” and “other forms of compensation,” which may include merit raises and recognition for Collegiate involvement. Traditional reward structures Currently, faculty teaching in the Colleges are not paid for their work nor released from teaching any of their regular departmental courses. “The Colleges are not tied into the traditional reward structure of the University,” explained Beverly Paigan, chairperson of the Colleges’ internal Program Evaluation Committee. Additionally, Ms. Paigan said that untenured faculty teaching in the Colleges may be jeopardizing their chance for tenure or reappointment. “At least two departments have told their faculty members not to teach in the Colleges,” she maintained. Jonathan Reichert, chairman of the Faculty-Senate Colleges Committee, agreed with Ms. Paigan that the lack of tangible rewards, overload of teaching responsibilities and fear of tenure difficulties were the primary factors inhibiting faculty participation in the Colleges. “High degree of nonsense” However, Dr. Reichert added that there was “no hard evidence” that any faculty member had been denied tenure because of involvement with the Colleges. George Hochfield, chairman-elect of the Faculty-Senate, disputed the assertion that a lack of tangible rewards was the primary force keeping faculty out of the Colleges. “The faculty don’t want to be involved in the proliferation of amateur course offerings,” Dr. Hochfield said. The “high degree of nonsense” and “built-in bias” against anyone with credentials keep many faculty out of the College system, Dr. Hochfield explained. Comparing the situation to Gresham’s Law, Dr. Hochfield said that “bad courses and incompentent teachers have driven out the faculty.” Authentic qualifications However, he said that once the present system is out of the way and “strong and viable” Colleges have been created, many faculty will want to be active in the Colleges. He added that College courses should be taught predominantly by University faculty and a “very few” individuals without “authentic” qualifications. The requirement for non-credentialed instructors, he said, “should be stringent.” Dr. Hochfield also said that released time and academic rewards for —continued on page 2 — questions concerning its application.

Spectrum has • Monday, 4 February 1974 «»«n j±ui people. Although some fear the misuse of such techniques by certain political forces, Dr. Meisler thinks “there are easier means to control behavior than to attempt to restructure the genetic makeup of an entire society. Psychological control is much more realistic because the human brain’s centers for various feelings have been fairly well mapped out. By planting tiny electrodes within the brain,” she continucd,“certain behavior patterns can be reinforced and others sublimated. If control is the desired effect, it would be more easily achieved in the stimulation and sublimation of parts of the brain.” Biological deformhiess Dr. Meisler believes that much of the work being done today in genetics must be considered from a standpoint, including moral the process of amniocentesis, which involves the injection of a fine needle into the amnionic fluid of the womb where a fetus is developing. When the gene sample taken in amniocentesis is examined, it is possible to determine the sex of the fetus, and whether the baby will have any gross biological deformities., This process is only used when the possibility of deformity is already known. ui nature take its course, he feels. However, “the power inherent in Hie ability to determine sex could be extremely dangerous in the wrong hands,” he cautioned. Using what he conceded was “an extreme of the results of sex extrapolation predetermination,” Dr. Ettinger said, “unethical political forces could use sex predetermination to build a nation of strong, dumb men and beautiful women” through inbreeding and control, and “this society would be controlled by an intellectual elite. Random selection which results in a genetically heterogeneous society must be retained.” Serious social ramifications “A massive use of sex predetermination would have serious social ramifications,” said Miriam H. Meisler, another member of the University’s retarded children, she is given the option of this study performed on the genetic mmaterial of the fetus. If the fetal material shows that the baby will be bom retarded, the mother may have a therapeutic abortion. Dr. Meisler quickly pointed out that this complex amniocentesis, which can be of help to families who know they face the possibility of having a deformed child, is performed only in cases in which this medical information is more having needed. Abuse of information “The process of charting several genes of the unborn child could be severely abused,”Dr. Meisler fears. Parents could choose to abort the fetus if they prefer a child of a different sex. Amniocentesis could —continued on page 10 — �Fewer • • • Poetry reading Collegiate teaching was essential to keep faculty in the Colleges. Most College members and Dr. Reichert disagree with Dr. Hochfield’s belief that a “lack of credibility” has been the single biggest factor keeping faculty out of the Colleges. Conflicting ideologies For instance, Roger Cook, author of the Minority statement to the Colleges Committee report, believes that the lack of rewards and released time from departments have prevented faculty involvement. Mr. Cook, representing Social Sciences Colleges, also explained that his College takes an “alternative theoretical position” from faculty in the social sciences departments (Psychology, Sociology, Anthropology, etc.) and thus it is difficult to find faculty interested in teaching Social Science College courses. He added that faculty with Socialist, radical or Marxist theories are not encouraged at this University. Economics professors “Three faculty critical to our program” Raymond Boddie and James Crotty and History professor Thomas were either denied tenure or not reappointed, Mr. Cook Rainey noted. Dr. Rainey, said Mr. Cook, claimed that one of the reasons he was denied tenure was because doubts about his sserriousness as a — WBFO presents a weekly poetry program entitled The Ten O’Clock Muse every Tuesday night at 10 p.m. in Room 327 Norton Hall. This week. The Muse will feature Barry Gifford and Ray Neinstein. Barry Gifford is a poet-and novellist from San Francisco, whose book A Boy’s Novel was published last year to high praise by young writers, among them Tom McGuane. Ray Neinstein is a graduate student in the English Department here. He has done considerable research on the regional novel, the sense of American place. His poems have been published in Rapport, Red Buffalo and Ethos. Changes sought by IRC as dissatisfaction increases scholar arose from his involvement with the Colleges. Music lessons for all Communications College coordinator Claire Loprese expressed her belief that “improper channels of communication, a lack of rewards, and a lack of caring” prevented more faculty from becoming involved in her College. College B representative Bonnie Spaner said that “no compensation” thwarted College B’s efforts to attract more faculty. Maureen Busher, also from College B, added that some faculty from the Music Department were sponsoring students to give music lessons through the College because the Music Department does not offer lessons to non-Music majors. Biology professor Hal Segal said the Colleges have discouraged faculty from becoming involved and that the rewar d system failed to adequately acknowledge productivity in the Colleges. Further complicating the issue is the Colleges’ attempt to provide for a new class of faculty College faculty hired specifically to teach in the Colleges. This group would consist of community lecturers with expertise in a particular topic as well as professors from other universities. The Colleges plan to introduce an amendment to the Reichert Prospectus at tomorrow’s Faculty-Senate meeting calling for acknowledgement of this new classification of Collegiate faculty. — - HORROR CLASSIC OF THE SILENT SCREEN LON CHANEY in PHANTOM OF THE OPERA accompanied by Art Melgler at the also on the same program CHARLIE CHAPLIN in THE TRAMP Mighty Wuriitzer — reorganization and expansion of IRCB, the non-profit service corporation owned by IRC.

The air shelter, similar to ones used in some areas for indoor tennis courts, is one of several possibilities presently being considered by the Student Association (SA) and Facilities Planning to try to provide the residents of the activity-less North Campus with an athletic facility. It is hoped that structure would accommodate tennis, basketball, handball, a small track and possibly even a weight room, shower and locker room. The air-supported structure is by far the most glamorous of the recreational proposal and is receiving the most attention. It would have about 43,000 square feet of floor space and a 50-foot ceiling. It is supported by a small pressure difference between the outside and inside of the structure, maintained by a system of blowers. A structure of this type, with appropriate safety and emergency measures, is considered completely safe and functional and is favored because of its relatively low cost and short erection time. Amherst residents complain Dwane Moore of Facilities Planning explained that they are presently in the process of getting bids for such an air population one-tenth the size of the structure made locally by Birdair. He is school’s present enrollment. Hillard Warm, president of Lehman also investigating the possibility of a Butler Building (similar to the annexes on the Hall, one of the four North Campus dorms, Main Campus) and a “Wonder Building,” a was quick to affirm the dissatisfaction of type of Quonset hut.

Funding the project, of course, is the major obstacle facing the committees now studying the project. The prospects of the State picking up some of the cost, which is expected to run somewhere between $25,000 to $30,000 a year, appears pretty dim, but all those involved are still optimistic of obtaining some sort of gym facilities for the Amherst Campus by the target date of September 1974. • Starts Today! • �Cutbacks mean fewer flights and employees The airline industry has felt the impact of the energy crisis, and Buffalo International Airport and the airlines serving it arc no exception.

Mr. Palefsky expressed hope that President Ketter will okay the proposal in the very near future. ‘There are two other schools in the SUNY organization with the same system*” he mentioned. Expressing a different opinion was Bob Hunt, chairman of the Traffic Control Advisory Committee. He seemed a bit annoyed with Mr. Palefsky’s proposal. When asked if he was in favor of President Ketter agreeing to the measure, Mr. Hunt responded: “It doesn’t make a whole lot of difference to me one way or the other.” Mr. Hunt added that it was “an unfortunate programmm. . . discriminating, not fair or just” — - - — — - SKI — ‘Painstaking and time-consuming' “If' everything went right,” Mr. Hunt said, It would take six months to a year to put the program into effect.

Mr. Hunt said that the program could not possibly be acted upon as swiftly as Mr. Palefsky wished. In any case, the fate of the Committee’s proposal now rests with President Ketter.

So I went in my room and put on the earphones. You can’t watch a Nixon speech anyway, with me around. All I can do is fume and sputter and bellow at the tube. The whole thing does in fact seem ridiculous, but he does get to me on some i primitive level which leaves me impotently gnashing my teeth. *|*| The only reasonable conclusion 11|0 seems to be that I get nervous about being like him. 1* is not hard to internally (inillln conceive of being a I# —. The laundered money and flagrant abuses in national elections, so fully exposed by Watergate, should sensitize us to the flaws in our local political system. To lend the greatest possible legitimacy to our elected Student Association representatives, we must cleanse the process by which they are elected from the abuses which have plagued it in past years. First and most obvious is the need for a ceiling on campaign spending. The amount spent by candidates in past years has greatly increased. This reduces the election chances of poorer students, tips the whole process in favor of those with more money to spend, and leaves the door open for a wealthy student to virtually "buy" an election by expending great sums on publicity. Spending ceilings are one facet of the election reforms SA vice-president Dave Saleh will present to the Student Assembly tomorrow. We favor his proposal for a sliding scale that would allow an independent candidate to spend more ($60) than one on an 11-man ticket ($32 per person), but we think those numbers are too high. We prefer ceilings of $45 on independents and $24 for each candidate on a full ticket, making the ticket's total ceiling $265 instead of $350. The candidates' stands on the issues as published in the campus media, and not how much publicity they can afford to buy, should determine their electoral success. A rigid spending ceiling is an immediate necessity. The rule that campaigning cannot begin until 11 days before the election, often violated in the past, must be strictly enforced by fines and suspensions, with appeals possible to the Student Judiciary. All other campaign rules must be impartially enforced in this manner by the Office of Elections and Credentials. To prevent political manipulation by having the incumbent SA President choose the Director of Elections and Credentials, that person should instead be selected by the Student Assembly in late spring, almost; qjoll yew »n advance of the next year's elections. This wouidfbe preferable to having the post elected, which might encourage political hopefuls seeking an 'in' for the upcoming election. No election advertising in the campus media can be allowed until the 11-day campaign period begins; sanctions should be taken against candidates who violate this rule. A strict ceiling on advertising spending is vital; receipts from all ads must be filed with Elections and Credentials to prevent over-spending, over-advertising or free ads by a campus publication for its favored candidate. These reforms would prevent the ambiguous circumstances which surrounded one candidate's publicity in a campus publication last year. The campus publications themselves should act in good faith and not publish premature publicity, often disguised in the form of news stories --or opinion polls, before the campaign period starts. While we do not favor letting student government determine the fine line between news and disguised publicity, we hope the publications will responsibly refrain from such unprofessional journalism. Voters who see a candidate getting an unusual amount of "news coverage" a few weeks before the election should conclude that the publication is trying to "push" its candidate. Endorsements splashed on the front page, rather than on the editorial pages where they belong, should be similarly viewed. Finally, while we do not favor abolishing tickets, we oppose the listing of tickets in a straight horizontal line. This discourages students from considering each candidate on individual merits and encourages them to blindly flick their finger down a straight line. The inevitable result is the "good dragging in the bad," since each ticket always has its share of mediocre candidates added to round it out. Instead of horizontal listings, a lottery should randomly determine each individual candidate's spot on the ballot; under his name would be his party or "independent." Although an SA constitutional amendment would be nice, the votes would be hard to get and a Student Assembly resolution would serve just as well. We therefore urge the Student Assembly to carefully consider the reforms Mr. Saleh will propose and to act on them tomorrow, in time for this month's SA election. Unfortunately, we cannot legislate the most needed reform, which is getting more than a fraction of the students to vote in the SA elections a puzzling fact when $3/4 million of their money is at stake. We can, at least, clean up the election process itself. — Page six The Spectrum Monday, 4 February 1974 . . mealy-mouthed, plati tude-spouting, ' ;.'

My comments should not be construed as an endorsement of a mechanical one contact hour: one credit formula. (In fact, I think the most sensible suggestion, provided it is administratively feasible, is that of variable credits as attributed to Dr. Ebert in your front page story.) First, I seriously question your assumption that the four-course load actually results in more intensive concentration on particular subject areas and/or in more independent work by students. You assert that the four-course load has been “very successful,” and that the f“four-credit unit has proved a sound idea.” Where is this proof? Has the work load of each course grown? Have students really devoted more time to each remaining course or to independent research since contact hours were reduced by twenty percent? In short, are undergraduates devoting as much total time to their studies, defining “studies” as broadly as you like, as f the eventual outcome of whicty is determined by the ability of the involved individuals to withstand the psychic stress of outwaiting each other). (See above.) The Philosophy Department might make a valuable contribution by studying the implications of the brilliant conceptual leap involved in the final solution to this problem as proposed by Nestor (“Bull”) Morton et. ai. involving the controlled application of a massive, blunt Object (i.e., baseball bat, crowbar, etc.) to critical portions of the anatomy of the opposition. I have heard rumors that College A may present a rather naive alternative involving the use of multilevel parking tots, but this may be disregarded as a rather primitive and typically irrational approach, emphasizing, incidentally, the fundamental illegitimacy of the various colleges in an institution of higher learning. when they were required to take five courses? Absent any hard evidence to the contrary, I find the assertion implausible. It is certainly inconsistent with my personal impressions. Second, you totally ignore the value of breadth in undergraduate education. Your hypothetical history major may benefit from the extra time given to his psychology course (if he in fact expends it), but might he not also benefit from an additional course in music, drama, or biology? There is a lot to be said for a student gaining systematic exposure, even if that exposure is somewhat more superficial, to a wider variety of subjects in his undergraduate career. It may well be his best (and perhaps only) opportunity to become acquainted with intellectual fields which will spark his interest throughout life. And to extoi the virtues of scholarly depth rather than breadth is to assume that the undergraduate student has had a sufficient chance to explore his options respect with to later academic concentration. I very "much doubt that this assumption is warranted. Howard G. Foster Associate Professor L. Travler The Spectrum Editor-in-Chief Campaign costs the average student. Elective choice should be based on cohesive, intelligent platform, not on an innundation of colorful and expensive posters. I was dismayed to leam the prices that the University Press charges for printing such posters. I believe that an equal number of flyers, if flyers and such material must be used, should be made available to all ensure equitable exposure. Intelligent debate speaks for itself when not swamped by posters dependent upon the individual finances of each opponent. While I am talking about campaign practices, it is important to point out, that in the past, many things were said around campus during campaign time, but did not seem to mean much after that. If students want student government to be effective then they will have to take an interest, so as to avoid what is happening this year: attempted abolition of the colleges, attempted arming of security, a recent attempt at initiating a five-course load, and other less publicized issues. In my experience as an SA representative this year, and as a student for the past two, I have noticed that the SA, for the most part has kept out of the fling and has let other interest groups do the fighting. I hope people will take a good look around them, and reassess what is going on, and for God’s sake take an interest. Danny, Production Randi Schnur . . Ronnie Selk . . Amy Dunkin Larry Kraftowitz .

Capitalists push racist lies to stay in power and turn workers and students against each other. The Nazis said “blame the subhuman blacks.” In Ohio a law has been proposed to sterilize welfare recipients after their second “illegitimate” child. Rising is helping these Nazi laws get passed. (Join us in demonstrating against this law March 2 in Columbus, Ohio.) Rising’s propaganda, like Hitler’s, will kill not only its immediate victims, but millions of other workers and students as well.

He said that trying to engineer the makeup of an unconceivcd person is not really to be taken seriously, now or for the future. “With our slim knowledge and the innumerable possibilities involved in genetic combination,” he thinks that “attempting to combine specific male and female genes would be as ludicrous as the man who wanted to cross a cabbage with a radish so he could eat both together.

With all this exercise awaiting you, there’s no excuse for sitting in front of the television night after night. by Steve Lustig “really psyched up” the Bulls according to coach Bill Sanford. Buffalo then captured the 200 yard Individual medley and the One Meter Required Dive as Doug Van Dorsten and Keil Wurl scored victories for the Bulls. Van Dorsten, who missed last Saturday’s match against Brockport because of medical reasons, was followed by Carl Gabauer for a 1-2 Buffalo finish. Shaberly thought “Buffalo did an excellent job. I’ll admit that we haven’t swam as well as we could, but that doesn’t take anything away from Buffalo. The man who really surprised me was Bemseley,” added Shaberly. Bemseley said after races of the 50-yard freestyle: “I knew I could do it physically but I was worried I couldn’t psyche myself up for another race.” Buffalo assistant coach Craig Ritz noted, “We still have a long way to go. Some other teams are already peaking but our times should go down for a while. We may beat some of those teams that beat us earlier in the season at the New York State Championships,” Ritz added. Commenting on the Bulls chances against Rochester on Wednesday night Ritz noted that Rochester had only swam in one meet and “We should have the upper edge. We look good in the 50, 100, and 200 freestyle but we’ll be at a disadvantage being away from,” said Ritz Saxon’s victory edges Bulls Spectrum Staff Writer Alfred University’s 400 yard freestyle relay team raced home in the final event to secure the win as the Saxons defeated the swimming Bulls 60-53 on Wednesday in Clark Hah. The score had been tied before the relay was run. The relay climaxed a fiercely competitive match that was delayed due to a rerun of the 50-yard freestyle. The Bulls Mark Bemseley apparently had scored Buffalo’s first victory. Alfred’s Paul Strauss complained that he had caught his foot in the false start rope which was still in the water. The referees ruled that Strauss had a disadvantage and that the race should be run again. When it was rerun, Bemseley won by about the same margin he had won on the first race. Referee Ray Johnston explained: “He definitely hit it (the rope). It was against the wall and he just hit off of it.” Alfred coach Mike Shaberly felt that the rope “probably didn’t make any difference but the kid (Strauss) felt he could win the race if it was , rerun”. < Bulls aroused The fact that Bemseley won the 50 in.the rerun Bikeway proposed west of Millersport A civil engineering student has a proposal for a bicycle pathway between the Main Street and Amherst campuses. Edward Coleman has designated an area just west of Millersport Highway where the bikeway would be constructed. The bicycle path would run parallel to Millersport Highway instead of along the highway itself, Mr. Coleman explained. The Niagara Frontier Transportation Commission (NFTC), whose duty it is to coordinate regional transportation, has suggested that campus bikepaths be connected with any existing bikeway introduced systems. Possible hindrances Several factors could hinder the implementation of this plan, First, the bikeway would not be funded by Amherst or Erie County (it’s rather indefinite who would fund it) if there was not a great demand. Presently, there are few cyclists commuting between campuses. The civil engineering group plans to conduct a survey of students on both campuses to determine how many of them have bicycles. Secondly, obstructions like sewer gratings and the crossing of major highways may complicate things. Doug Philip, a spokesman for Faciilities Planning, explained: depends on the final “It and report engineering the transit of configuration system between the South and Amherst Campuses.” Crossing the Youngman Expressway with a bicycle seems a rather difficult task, with cars speeding by at 55 MPH. Pobert Hunt, Director of Environmental Health and Safety, suggested that an underpass be constructed allowing bicyclists to cross safely. Two Civil Engineering groups arc currently investigating the bikeway proposal. One group is studying roads and designs, the other is looking into bikeway legislation. Only if all the specifications are developed and the (dan is deemed feasible will it become a matter of concern for the governmental bodies. Need copies of anything? That's right, anything!

He robbed me three or four times, and he robbed Johnny by Dave Gerrfaiger Sports Editor HAMILTON, N Y. - The hockey Bulls struck out in their final attempt of the season to gain a victory an ECAC Division I team Saturday night. Buffalo’s 8-2 loss at Colgate’s Starr Rink was their third without a win against Division 1 opposition this year. Buffalo is 12-9, while the Red Raiders arc buried at the bottom of the heap in Division I (712-1) The game was much closer than the final score indicated, with Colgate outshooting Buffalo by 34-28. However, Colgate capitalized on seemingly every opportunity, while the Bulls were thwarted almost endlessly. Raider goaltender Chris Grigg did most of the thwarting, allowing goals with all the frequency of a solar eclipse. Grigg was outstanding, stopping 13 of 14 Bull shots in the second period when Colgate increased a 2-0 margin to 5-1. Scoring opportunities missed Buffalo missed at least as many excellent scoring chances in the opening period as Grigg foiled. The Raider netminder allowed only Mike Klym’s 25th goal of the season when the game outcome had been long decided. Klym’s goal just 45 seconds into the middle stanza was followed by A1 Forslund’s slap shot marker just six seconds later which restored the Raiders’ two-goal margin. [Stranges] also,” Klym added. Bulls coach Ed Wright also praised Grigg’s play; their “We didn’t have any lick around the net goaltender stopped us cold. That’s what a goaltender does to you, he constantly frustrates you. If you keep shooting at a goaltender and he constantly frustrates you, it throws your game off. It’s like a form of intimidation. Yes, for the shots we took at him. I’d have to say that he’s the best we’ve faced,” Wright continued. — Raiders have speed, defense The Bull skipper also praised the Raiders: “Colgate is the best Division I team that I’ve seen this year. They had a better defense than Clarkson. They were very fast and they just kept going on those wings,” Wright added. Buffalo will enter the crucial part of their season this weekend, traveling to American International and New Haven for contests Saturday and Sunday before journeying to Oswego for another crucial two-game set two weeks later. The Bulls defeated AIC earlier this season, 4-3, in the finals of the AIC tournament. New Haven is 6-10 after dropping a 6-2 decision at Oswego Saturday night. Both weekend games are in the “must win” category if the Bulls are to rate a chance for selection for the Division II playoffs which begin March 2. Grapplers take two wins in double dual meet Saturday Saturday, at that he is wrestling above his SYRACUSE House, the wrestling normal weight class. “At 167, Field Manly - Bulls ran their season record to 18-1 with victories over Cortland, *38-5, and Syracuse, 27-9.

Not the least ofNowakowski’s problems is ENVIRONMENTALISTS everyone is just as strong as he is said assistant coach Scott Stever. Tlut at 158 Jerry can overpower ” jpeople.” The Canandaigua boys, freshmen Ron Langdon (118) and Bruce Hadsell (142) had two key yips within an hour’s time in the round robin style meet; “I could really feel myself getting tired in that second match,” said Langdon. Jim Young (134) and Charlie Wright also won twice for the Bulls recording one pin a piece. Wright remains undefeated at 13-0-2, while Young has only one loss against 17 wins. - Courses still open: RCC 332 Man in the Garden; Environmental aspects of literature - Reg.

Russi, who weighed in at 298, almost got pinned himself 'first.T‘1 scared myself there,” he said. “I forgot to grab his [Syracuse’s Tom Morgan’s) arm when I pulled him down and he landed on top of me.” Russi squirmed out of trouble and promptly did it right. Both meets featured a lack of takedowns. Stever attributed this to the high level of competition and similarity in coaching styles. “It’s very difficult to get a takedown when both wrestlers are trying the same things,” Stever said. Michael cited the reluctance of a wrestler to give a takedown in a short six minute match (regular matches last eight minutes) and the short frames of most Syracuse matmen as factors in the shortage of takedowns. Overall the Bulls can attribute their wins Saturday to very tenacious riding, their best to date. More of the same will be needed if Buffalo is to defeat Cleveland State Wednesday night at Sweet Home High School. Cleveland State was one of only two teams to best the Bulls last year.

The Senate granted a similar veto to the Faculty-Senate Executive Committee over the two College appointments to that Chartering Committee. Meeting before an overflow crowd which alternately cheered and booed while listening to the extensive debate on amendments to Jonathan Reichert’s Colleges Committee report, the Senators also voted to ask only the Dean of the Colleges to submit an independent recommendation to President Ketter on College~charter proposals. The Reichert report had called for independent from recommendations the Academic Affairs vice president and Dean of Undergraduate Studies as well as the Dean of the Colleges. More Collegians rejected The Senate also rejected a proposal to increase College representation on the Chartering Committee from two to four members. A resolution to give any member of the University Community the power To initiate proceedings to dissolve a College was also defeated. The amendment giving the Colleges veto power over the faculty appointments to the Chartering Committee was based upon a rationale first expressed in the Reichert report, which stated that representatives from the faculty should not come from those openly hostile to the ‘ Colleges." Dr. Reichert supported the amendment, as did faculty Senator Bernard Greenblat, who urged his colleagues to give “some semblance of recognition to people who have been investing their energy, enthusiasm and competence” in building the Colleges. The Colleges were given a similar veto power over appointments to the external and internal evaluations conducted during the past year. Beverly Paigen, chairman of the Colleges’ Program Evaluation Committee (PEC), cited the internal and external evaluations as evidence that the Colleges “will not misuse the veto power.” , Veto ‘important gain’ Harold Segal, professor of Biology, spoke against the veto power resolution, calling it a “delegation of veto power to an outside agency.” Urging a reform of the Colleges in line with the Reichert Committee, Dr. Segal asked the Senate to “rely on the Faculty-Senate Executive Committee [the body charged with making appointments to Committees] to be judicious.” Roger Cook, the author of the minority statement in the College Committee report, called the veto power an “important” gain for the Colleges. He added that it assures that a faculty representative to the Chartering Committee will not come from those faculty openly hostile to the Colleges.' The successful amendment to mandate that independent recommendations to the President over chartering proposals come only from the Dean of the Colleges and not from the Dean of Undergraduate Studies or Academic Affairs vice president was introduced by Senator David Hollinger. ‘Crippling abdication’ “There’s no reason to give them special clout,” Dr. Hollinger said.. He explained that the DUS Dean and Academic Affairs vice president were already involved as non-voting members of the Chartering Committee. The unsuccessful amendment to increase the College membership from two to four on the Chartering Committee was proposed by William Allen, professor of History. Proponents cited the statement prepared by Women Studies College students and endorsed by the Collegiate Assembly, that increased representation “takes into account the experience and acquired wisdom of experimental education possessed by those currently working in the Colleges. This should not be seen as a bid for control of the committee, but rather as one for continuity between the current system and the proposed one, one that gives us a significant role in the shaping of our future,” Arguing against the amendment, Dr. Segal said increasing the number of College representatives would be a “crippling abdication of faculty responsibility.” The amendment was rejected by a 48-19 margin. Experimental courses next The Senate also passed a resolution cutting the terms of Charter Committee members from two years to one. The Faculty-Senate will reconvene next Tuesday at 2:30 p.m. in Diefendorf 148 to consider various other amendments to the Reichert report. The most important amendment still pending before the Faculty-Senate involves experimental courses. Under the present system, experimental courses may be given by the Colleges on a one-semester trial basis. The Reichert report does not include a provision for the continuing of this practice. Therefore, all courses will have to receive prior approval by the Division of Undergraduate Studies (DUS) Curriculum Committee A recent College statement asked that experimental courses be continued because they “provide for short-term commitments in dealing with interesting but untried ideas, and provide for a growing edge to curriculum as a sound basis of experience.” budianskt develop new Colleges, the role of the master of each College, and funding of the Colleges. The once-serene Faculty-Senate meetings have become a forum for debate among students, faculty and Collegians since consideration of the new College Prospectus began. Tuesday’s meeting by the was highlighted of several uniformed Buffalo policemen who came to speak about the merits of College Z. College Z has initiated programs through which students work with policemen to develop an awareness of the role of the appearance police. No longer serene Other proposed amendments to be discussed at next Tuesday’s meeting deal with the role of faculty participation in the Colleges, the proposed Workshops to Lt. McDaniels, the head of the Tactical Police Unit (TPU) which was called onto campus during the 1969-70 student demonstrations, spoke about the development of student-police interaction through the College Z program. Nader: Oil companies have ‘turned the screws’ to create energy squeeze by Michael O’Neill National Editor “There is no energy crisis. The giant oil have created it with either production and refinery cutbacks, advertising propaganda and falsified reserve reports.” These charges were leveled companies against the oil industry and the government Nader in a speech to students at Niagara Community College on Wednesday. Mr. Nader, the long-time consumer advocate, issued a forthright challenge to the oil companies. He accused them of manipulating the present situation to create circumstances most favorable to themselves. The Department of the Interior and other government groups charged with monitoring the oil companies were called by Ralph Ralph Nader “little more than a private real estate and accounting firm for the industry.” His criticisms were sharp and to the point, but his speech went beyond the realm of verbal accusation. Refusing to believe “The American people cannot win the propaganda battle,” Mr. Nader conceded. “but for the first time the people are refusing to believe statements issued by the industry and their government counterparts.” Interpreting this as a ray of hope, Mr." Nader asked: “Are the consumers of this country going to allow the oil companies to continue unchecked?” Although the task is immense, Mr. Nader outlined a plan of action that would make Congress take steps to break away from the oil interests and represent the people of the country. “Make the energy issue a number one priority and put pressure on your representatives to check the large companies,” he urged the crowd. We will be forced to pay with our dollars and our health if the stampede of industry is allowed to go on,” he cautioned • ‘ Turning the screws The present shortage of heating and fuel oil, he said, is a reality. Available petroleum is at a dangerous low, but Mr. Nader emphasized: “This does not mean there is a shortage of oil available for production. The world is drowning in oil.” It is the oil companies that have made oil a valuable commodity, Mr. Nader charged: “It is within their power to turn the screws —continued on page 18— �Recreational employment WmM The Buffalo Youth Board is accepting applications for penons interested in part-time employment as Recreational aides.

Special Student Menu & .... Loaded to the gills ‘The Effects of Alcohol on Goldfish” is one of the experiments being conducted at the Research Institute on Alcoholism. Research Institute opens for nation s greatest drug problem by Phil Samuels Staff Writer Spectrum The country’s first state-funded Research Institute on Alcoholism officially opened last November in Buffalo. Funded by the New York State Department of Mental Hygiene, the Institute is provided with facilities and faculty members by the State University of Buffalo. A staff of 50 now occupies the former Federal Offices Building on Main and North Streets, which was given to the state for the purpose of alcohol research. Of the 50 staffers, 25 are researchers brought to Buffalo from all over the country by Cedric M. Smith, director of the Institute and professor of Pharmacology at this University. The interior of the building is being remodeled to accommodate labs and offices. The institute will be dealing with all facets of alcohol research. ‘This is not a narrow program of research,” said James J. Wood, a research scientist at the Institute. Dr. Wood will be dealing with educational research and the evaluation of various social experiments. He described the program as “multidisciplinary,” dealing with the pharmacological, behavioral, social, physiological and psychological effects of alcohol. The Institute was set up “to get some answers” to the questions: Where are rehabilitation centers needed most? How many people must they accommodate? How to convince the abusive “social drinker” to seek help? What is the best way to treat the problem drinker? Alcholic rats A number of projects have been proposed. One possibility is to study entire populations to see if there is any genetic link to alcohol tolerance. This might help explain the high rate of alcoholism among Irish-Americans and the among Jews. Ifhe Researchers are also testing effects of alcohol on succeeding generations by feeding alcohol to mother rats. A noticeable concentration of alcohol was found to be contained in the mother’s milk. As the infants mature, they are tested for alcohol preference and tolerance against a group of controlled rats, and comparisons are made. Another experiment already in progress is ‘The Effects of Alcohol on Muscle Spindles,” which will shed light on how alcohol affects coordination and other nervous system functions. Gettingfish drunk The first research paper issued by the Institute was called ‘The Development and Loss ofTolerance ‘Problem drinkers’ Exclaiming that alcoholism is “the number one to Alcohol in Goldfish.” This experiment studied the drug problem in the country,” Dr. Wood likened factors affecting tolerance and where the alcohol is problem drinkers to drug abusers.

Introduced by Assembly members Michael Pierce and Frank Jackolone, the motion carried by a vote of 14 to 8. Arguing for the proposal Mr. Pierce spoke on the importance of supporting the Colleges. The proposal was later amended to include a resolution calling for SA to issue a statement of support in favor of the Minority report. — The resolution to hold a referendum on the Minority Report of the Faculty-Senate Colleges Committee is being sent passed by the Student Assembly Tuesday back by Student Association (SA) President Jon Dandes. The referendum proposal was passed in the wake of a stormy meeting of the Faculty-Senate earlier in the day, where several Student Assembly members claimed the Colleges were being “annihilated.” ‘The proposal is ridiculous,” asserted Mr. Dandes, who, by sending the proposal back to the Assembly for reconsideration, is exercising a form of veto power permitted under the SA constitution. - — Absentee input Characterizing the Assembly’s action as “too little loo late,” Mr. Dandes felt the Collegiate proposals were inappropriate for students to vote upon. “Questions of academic policy are not for referendum. If the Assembly wanted student input, they should have been at the Faculty-Senate meeting speaking to the Senators,” Mr. Dandes said. “The issue is very complex with many ramifications,” continued Mr. Dandes. ‘To ask for a referendum five days before the Faculty-Senate meeting precludes any effort that might be made to educate the public as to the reasons for the referendum. As of now, the majority and minority reports [of the Faculty-Senate Detract from election ‘.‘It won’t accomplish anything,” claimed Assemblyman Warren Breisblatt. “It would have been enough to pass a resolution in favor of the Colleges and send a strong letter to Gil Moore. The Majority Report, with one or two revisions, is going to go through no maker what is done,” he said. A referendum would detract from the upcoming SA elections and lower the election turnout at the polls, Mr. Breisblatt maintained. Work on the referendum should have started three weeks ago to allow for substantial student input and a complete educational process of telling people about both the majority and minority reports,” reiterated Mr. Dandes. Citing the Assembly’s habitual inaction regarding leaflet printing and letter-writing campaigns, the SA President said: ‘The SA has a bad history with referendums.” In the midst of a controversy over the proposed arming of Campus Security last year, less than 1000 students out of a total of 14,000 undergraduates voted in a referendum on arming. - - Jon Dandes In other business, the Assembly agreed to establish an election reform committee, with a temporary chairman to be appointed sometime in the immediate future. “We’re hoping for a limit on SA campaign spending and possibly on the number of column inches of advertising; and that violation of these rules will result in disqualification of candidates or fines with a 72-hour limit on payment,” explained Executive Vice President Dave Saleh. “We can’t wait any longer; if they want any changes, it will have to come this week,” Mr. Saleh emphasized. University Plaza has become the location of attempted rapes The sixth attempted rape within the last year in the University area was reported to the Amherst Police on January 22. This latest attempt was thwarted when the victim, after two full minutes of silence, apparently* overcome by shock, screamed, and frightened the attacker away. The previous five attempts did not result in rape, but did result in sodomy. (Sodomy is a lesser charge than rape, and consists of anal intercourse or oral intercourse, or almost every form of intercourse other than face-to-face.) No pattern is evident, the Amherst Police reported, but the assaults all occurred in the evening between 7:45 and 10:30 p.m. All six occurred on week nights. Event witnessed The University January attack was witnessed by a State of Buffalo student. She saw the attacker come from behind, grab the victim, tie her hands behind her back and drag her into the bushes. After two minutes, she screamed, and the attacker ran off. The witness did not notice any weapons on the assailant, but was surprised at how tightly the victim’s hands were bound behind her back. The witness said the police think the attacker is a student at this University, and do not know if the victim was a student. All of the attacker’s victims have been between the ages of 16-24, and all the rapes have occurred in the area behind the University Plaza, The January 22 attack occurred at Princeton and Windemere Streets, and the previous attack was on Springville, near Brant. The Amherst Police said four detectives are concentrating solely on this case, but as yet they have no leads on the man, other than the composite picture shown here. If you see this man, do not attempt to apprehend him; contact the Amherst Police at 632-1110.

Bicycle cage decreases thefts Bicycle thefts on campus have dropped dramatically thanks to the Student Association’s (SA) construction of the bicycle cage behind Lockwood Library, indicated Lee Griffin, assistant director of Campus Security. The bicycle cage has had a great deterrent effect on prospective bicycle thieves, affirmed Cliff Palefsky, SA Student Rights Coordinator. According to figures supplied by Mr. Griffin, there were 18 bicycle thefts on campus in August 1973 and 12 thefts during a similar period in 1972. After the opening of the bicycle cage last September, only one bike theft was committed that month. Efficient procedure Mr. Palefsky explained the way the bicycle cage security operation works. Students who wish to register their bicycles [free of charge) withSA must fill out an index card with the serial number of the bike. Someone is hired to sit by the entrance of the bicycle cage with a file of all registered bicycles. To reclaim a bicycle from the cage, the owner must match the number on his index card with the one on the bottom of the bicycle. SA is currently issuing identification license plates for the rear fender of each registered bike so the owner does not have to turn it upside down to check the serial number. With over 1000 registered bicycles, the operation is working so well that additions to the cage are being considered. Mr. Palefsky suggested that racks be set up to accommodate motorcycle helmets and other small items. Mr. Palefsky also hoped lights could be installed around the bicycle cage, but explained it would cost close to $4000. He is hopeful the administration will realize their responsibility to aid in this security operation and will help to finance the installation of the lights. etitions for Student Association positions available beginning Wednesday, January 30 in room 205.

Affecting about seven million rpbtorists, ' no-fault insurance applies to all motor vehicles except for privately operated motorcycles, electrically driven invalid chairs, vehicles on rails or tracks, and snowmobiles. The no-fault insurance law will bring about “prompt payment of economic losses to persons injured in auto accidents, regardless of fault, be they motorists, passengers or pedestrians,” according to the New York State Insurance Department. The new law will also eliminate lawsuits for bodily injury, “thereby easing the burden on our courts,” as well as reducing insurance premiums New York motorists must pay, the Department said. Insured to $50,000 Effective today, all New York State motorists must buy insurance coverage providing for the payment without regard to fault of at least $50,000 in economic losses sustained by any driver, passenger of pedestrian injured in an auto accident anywhere in the State. In return, all accident victims automatically will lose their right to sue unless their medical expenses exceed $500, or unless their injuries result in death, dismemberment, significant disfigurement, etc., or thieir economic losses exceed their no-fault protection. A person injured in an auto accident may receive only 80% of lost earnings under the new law, unless he is receiving benefits from another source such as Workman’s Compensation or Social Security Benefits. The no-fault law describes benefit* as “all reasonable and necessary - - medical and rehabilitation expenses, lost earnings up to $800 a month for three years, and up to $25 a day for other reasonable expenses incurred as a result of the accident.” Collision not included Insurance companies are also offering a wide variety of addf mal 'end thr basic no-fault package in the event of an accident outside New York ■state. Private agents and brokers are urging policyholders to request additional coverage to protect them during out-of-state travel. In order to protect themselves from a lawsuit, New Yorkers must still purchase minimum liability insurance, which was mandated prior to the no-fault law to provide $10,000 of insurance in the event of one injury or death; $20,000 in the event of two; and $5000 for property damage. They must also buy coverage to protect themselves against uninsured motorists in this state. ■ Other coverage such as medical payments, collision insurance and comprehensive coverage against other damage is not required by law, but is generally part of a typical auto insurance policy. The New York law provides for a 16% annual saving on the cost of combined liability coverage and no-fault personal injury protection. An additional 5% saving is provided by law for drivers who elect to absorb the first $200 in no-fault benefits themselves. - - 30-day limit Another key feature of the new no-fault law is that losses will be paid as they are incurred as medical bills are received and as earnings would be paid. The insurance company is required to make payment within 30 days after you supply proof of loss. If it fails to comply, it must pay 2% interest per month on the unpaid amounts, and reasonable legal fees, if it was necessary for you to retain a lawyer in order to collect a valid claim. Motorists with questions about obtaining or maintaining a policy in New York State may contact their agents or brokers as well as the parent company for further information. The New York State Insurance Department has also established a toll-free number to answer questions, Monday to Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.: 800-522-6837. Information is also available by writing the Department at 123 Williams Street, New York, N.Y., 10038, or 324 State Street, Albany, N.Y., 12210. — tate of the Union Ten-point legislation proposed Declaring that “one year of Watergate is enough,” President Richard Nixon delivered his fourth State of the Union message Wednesday since taking office in 1969, the first delivered in person since 1972. Mr. Nixon proposed a ten-point plan of legislative proposals ranging from helath to energy, from welfare to foreign policy. Speaking forcefully and dramatically, Mr, Nixon vowed “there will be no recession in 1974,” insisting that Congress pass his plans to “break the back of the energy crisis.” This country will attend an urgent meeting called recently by the Arab states, he said, as a result of the Middle East peace agreement, to lift the oil embargo on the United Spates. The President reiterated his stand that the United States “will not be coerced” regarding the purchase or sale of oil; “Let’s do everything we can to avoid rationing in the United States of America.” His legislative energy package included legislation he claimed would prevent windfall profits by the major oil companies. The plan would authorize expenditure of $10 billion in five years on energy research by the government. He claimed private industry would spend $200 billion in the same five years on energy development so that “we can meet the enerygy crisis head-on.” Power to the people Aside from his energy proposals, Mr. Nixon proposed a plan for “high quality health care that all Americans can afford.” As with his energy legislation, there are alternative plans in Congress for comprehensive national health insurance. He urged state and local governments to become more responsive to the needs of people, and cited progress in moving Federal authority and money “back from Washington to the states, local governments, and the people of America.” He urged that Congress vote to improve public transportation, explaining: “Mass transit is essential to improving life.” “our children should have the best education,” Mr. Nixon stated. He proposed that Congress adopt his plan for advance funding, when colleges and schools know a year in advance what their federal allocation will be, so that they might plan their budgets more carefully. The President also proposed an expanded loan and grant program for college students so that a college education would become more accessible “to those who can least afford it.” Responsibility in Indochina Stressing the need to reform the welfare system, Mr. Nixon said “cash assistance is what low-income people need most,” not housing and food subsidies, so they, not government, could determine what their needs are. He suggested a “negative income tax” or any other form of direct cash assistance to the poor. The President also promised a “historic beginning” in legislation to protect the right to personal privacy. He also proposed tax reform, transfer of Bureau of Indian Affairs programs to Indian tribal control, and a big increase in defense spending in a federal budget that will rise 529.7 billion to $304.4 billion. Mr. Nixon made a strong commitment to maintain American involvement in Indochina, noting that we must not let our relief at military extrication from Vietnam lead to “washing our hands of the whole affair... men and Women are still dying there,” he said, emphasizing that the U.S. had “a responsibility” in the area. Mr. Nixon forcefully pledged that he would “never allow America to become the second strongest nation on the earth.” He pledged to continue his past policies of using American military force “to keep peace, not break it, and defend freedom, not attack it.” He promised “full accounting” for the men missing in action in Southeast Asia, his first-reference to those men in quite some time. ‘The right way” to establish inexpensive health care for the entire nation, Mr. Nixon said, would be to “build on the strengths of the present system. a partnership, not paternalism.. . Government must make sure the doctor works for the patients not the Federal Government.” In his opening remarks, Nr. Nixon asserted that “America is the single greatest force for peace anywhere in the world. . . This is the first time in twelve years that the United States has been at peace with every nation of the world.” He delineated the accomplishments of the five years of his administration: ‘The prisoners of war came home on their feet, not on theirknees. peace has been returned to the cities and campuses... the crime rate has been cut in half. . the rate of new heroin addiction is decreasing. .. and for the first time in years, young men today are not faced with conscription.” .. .. Mr. Nixon seemed to display a conciliatory tone toward Congress. He frequently mentioned cooperation between the executive and legislative branches. In an interesting end to his speech, he said in a “personal note” that “I have provided all the documents 1 think are necessary to the Special Prosecutor. . . 1 will cooperate with the Judiciary Committee consistent with the responsibilities and duties of the President of the United States.” However, Mr. Nixon did offer a limitation on his cooperation with the House impeachment inquiry, which he said was the limitation governing all Presidents from Washington on.: “Never do anything to weaken the office or impair the power of future Presidents to make decisions.” He repeated that he has “no intention of ever walking away from the job he was elected to do.” He predicted that 1974 would be “a year of unprecedented progress toward lasting peace in the world and prosperity without war.” Senator Geroge McGovern (D.,S. Dak.), interviewed after the speech, said: “Few Americans share the confidence he has. . . he failed to come to grips with the crisis of the Presidency itself. . . it is difficult for him to provide leadership.” CBS commentator Dan Rather termed the speech “a masterful performance by a skilled orator,” although “some may think it was a bummer.” Friday, 1 February 1974 The Spectrum Page flee . . �~Thr\ Sim'iii To Ihm* Tlirir Own Uiilioniij” S\i.|rm” controversy over the Colleges is that the once-dull Faculty-Senate has become a forum in which students, faculty and administrators can debate their educational ideas. Although this University is still far from anything resembling a democracy, an open exchange of ideas and viewpoints is far better than the Administration's usual decision-making behind closed doors. Thus far the Colleges have twice succeeded in amending the Reichert Prospectus in important ways: by adding two Collegiate Assembly representatives to the Chartering Committee which will judge every College; and by giving the Colleges veto power over the six faculty members who will sit on that committee. The "veto" amendment passed Tuesday raises some hope that the Colleges may be judged by a somewhat open-minded panel, rather than one loaded with faculty blatantly hostile to the Colleges. The Colleges' responsible use of their veto power over the internal and external evaluators proves they will not abuse that power, but exercise it only to keep the committee free from hostile partisans. It would be even more encouraging if the Faculty-Senators were to recognize the dangers of stifling administrative control of course curricula, and amend the Prospectus to permit the continuation of a one-semester trial for experimental courses if they meet basic academic standards. The danger of the Too little, too late with document's obsession "legitimacy" was highlighted last week when Academic Affairs vice-president Bernard Gelbaum cancelled 16 College courses in mid-semester because the instructors did not have B.A.'s. With certain safeguards, experimental courses must be given at least a one-term trial to prove themselves, after which they would still require formal DUS approval. But to require prior approval by an administrative bureaucracy will lead to many more instanced of innovation being squashed at its source because some bureaucrat doesn't think the instructor has the proper "credentials." The Faculty-Senate will be considering many important academic issues the future of both the Colleges and the four-course load among them in the coming months. When the Administration doesn't ignore the Senate, it is a valuable vehicle for faculty input into academic policy. Students, unfortunately, have no formal input into University decisions (the fledgling University Assembly notwithstanding) although they must bear the brunt of academic policies. Until real student input becomes a reality until this University moves from a system of paternalistic dictates to democratic we hope at least the participation Faculty-Senate floor will becorrie a place where opposing views especially the oft-ignored concerns of students can be freely heard. — — — — — - Referendum sent back Note: The following is the memorandum sent to the Student Assembly by SA President Jon Dandes: In their enthusiasm to join the battle over the Colleges, the Student Assembly excitedly passed an ill-conceived resolution to hold a referendum asking undergraduates if they support the majority or minority report of the Faculty-Senate Colleges Committee. Although some type of referendum might have been a decent idea a few weeks ago, to hold a one-day referendum on Monday with barely 24 hours for publicity would probably attract about 300 voters and prove a severe embarrassment. As student representatives, the Student Assembly should take a stand on the Colleges issue on behalf of students whether through a letter to President Ketter, an endorsement of the Minority Report, or urging those who would vote in the one-day referendum to provide direct input by showing up at the Tuesday Faculty-Senate meetings. But to belatedly order a last-minute referendum after the Faculty-Senate has considered most of the — — - important amendments is to abdicate responsibility as any kind of voice for the • student body. A referendum is only suitable for taking the public pulse on clear-cut issues and even last year's dramatic choice of, for or against the arming of Campus Security drew barely a thousand people. A referendum between complex legislative proposals with their technical subtleties when very few students have even read the Reichert report is an exercise in stupidity. Many Assembly members apparently haven't read the report either; one Assemblyman quite seriously asked why next Tuesday's Faculty-Senate meeting couldn't be postponed until after the Assembly's referendum. SA President Jon Dandes has made the only rational move by sending this short-sighted proposal back to the Assembly. All anyone who really wanted a referendum on the Colleges has to do is go to next Tuesday's Faculty-Senate meeting and deliver their vote in person. — — — State of the Presidency Because of a situation which I believe will lead the ultimate detriment of Student Association, 1 am sending back the piece of legislation passed by the Assembly at its meeting of January 29, 1974 calling for a referendum to be held on Monday, February 5, 1974 concerning the Colleges. The reasons are the following; 1) There is insufficient time for Student Association to publicize such a referendum. educational responsibilities 2) The which Student have in informing the student body about such an issue would be too complex to deal with in four days. 3) A complex educational issue such as this should be dealt with by an informed student body and not on the basis of a referendum to be held within four (4) days. 4) The opportunity for direct student input is available to everyone at the Faculty-Senate meeting itself. The indirect method of referendum would dilute the impact of students speaking directly to the Faculty Senators. 5) Previous student responses to referendums would preclude us from making any realistic assessment of student sentiment. It is my hope that the desire for real student input into the Faculty Senates decision is such that to the Assembly would, not abdicate responsibiHPVj by not taking It is a sad spectacle when a U.S. President eyeing his personal finances and dubious tax must use the State of the Union message as a deductions and are expected to order Mr. political "fight" speech. Yet despite an array Nixon to pay a large sum in back taxes, And over a dozen Watergate-related civil suits of warmed-over legislative proposals and Ralph Nader's milk suit, the Mitchell-Stans inexplicable ovations from the Congressmen trial, the subpoena of Mr. Nixon to testify at who would rather face the 1974 elections John Ehrlichman's trial promise that the without him, Mr. Nixon's umpteenth attempt legal ramifications of Watergate are far from to put Watergate behind him was merely a over. — its legislative stand. To foist a referendum on the student body without any chance for proper and full debate is wrong in my view, when in fact it is the responsibility of the Student Assembly to speak for the student body and when in fact the possibility of direct input is so obvious. a Jonathan A. Dandes, President Student Association — staged illusion for the television audience. Even as he vowed never to resign, the House Judiciary Committee was hammering out the ground rules for impeachment; if Mr. Nixon tries to rewrite the Constitution's clause by withholding impeachment evidence, he may trigger an immediate vote to impeach. The committee is trying to find some way to obtain access to the evidence compiled by Special Prosecutor Jaworski, who is investigating areas such as ITT, milk finances; major indictments and are imminent. The intentional, manual (and sickeningly obvious) destruction of taped evidence is being scrutinized by the FBI, as the circle draws tighter and tighter, around the President. Congress and the IRS are v P^e£^.1T^^B§g^uqi,. Fr?d ay J \^pbi;5«rY 1 1 , The Judiciary Committee will almost certainly recommend impeachment. 79% of the public believes Mr. Nixon is guilty of some type of criminal complicity. Half the nation would like him to resign, although many still shrink from impeachment. But every day, new evidence makes corporate collusion, influence peddling, obstruction of justice, destruction of evidence, perjury, fraud and so on that much more obvious to the court of public opinion. Whether a House impeachment vote makes the State of the Union address Mr. Nixon's last hurrah remains to be seen but that he is a corrupt, crippled President for the remainder of the term he is desperately clinging to is excruciatingly clear. — Grad aid snafu To the Editor.

Just because most of the other universities in the state system run on, the 3-crcdit, 5-course system, doesn’t make it a better system. “One credit hour for one contact hour” is even more ridiculous. If we are going to quantify education, let’s not do it arbitrarily. Instead of using the magic number “3” or “4”, we could give courses credits according to their content. Courses which aren’t as difficult (but valuable) can carry two credits, while really difficult courses like Organic Chemistry for example, where students spend IS hours a week out of classroom working, should be given 4 or even 5 credits. If we’re going to quantify educational quality, let’s at least do it right. Jody Fran Burns Recreation: inaccurate To the Editor. It behooves us to correct certain inaccuracies in Dave Geringer’s article concerning the building of a recreation facility on the North Campus. It is irresponsible to state, as Mr. Geringer does, that the Amherst Campus will probably have a recreation facility next year. At this time the idea is still in its infancy, nothing is definite and the concerned parties in the Student Association, Administration, Facilities Planning and Housing Offices are merely exploring the possibilities. We are still far from the actual structural planning of the facility. Similarly, the funding question has yet to be answered. It seems that the only thing that has been agreed a place where upon is the need for such a structure students, particularly those 3000 who will be in residence on the Amherst Campus next year, can go for exercise during the winter when outdoor recreation is impossible. If built the structure will not be a palace, but it will serve the much needed function of providing recreational opportunities until the new gymnasium is completed. Only a few short weeks ago, due to certain problems, the idea seemed doomed to fail. However, of the the understanding and cooperation administration, as well as the Facilities Planning and Housing officials have given us renewed hope. - Bruce Engel Russia after the Second World War. Inflation is only rising 10 to 15 per-cent per year, while unemployment is still lower than the period from 1930 to 1939. Our armed forces this year did not, let me repeat that, did not lose a battle as compared to the previous years of my predecessors. Due to wise policy on the part of my advisors, we have managed to cut fuel consumption by such an extent that if any country or countries attempt to cut off our fuel supply we will avoid any crisis or panic. During my previous tenure as President I brought peace to Southeast Asia: our boys and our equipment returned home, while those who wanted war were stifled by my brilliant action. Now that peace reigns in Asia, only 50,000, give or take a couple of thousand, gooks are being killed every year. Enough of the good news; as strong resolute Americans we must look at the dark as well as the bright side of life. Through the past year I have been assailed by spiteful, vindictive, sore losers, and these creatures have spread nasty rumors concerning my personal finances, my involvement in the so-called Watergate matter, my mental stability, and other inconsequential matters. Let me make one thing perfectly clear: I never have, or never will be, or for that matter never plan to be, implicated in anything that is contrary to good taste, Amy Vanderbilt, Country and Flag, Mom’s apple pie or the Johnny Mann singers. Now that I have cleared up my involvement with the planning or coverup of that alleged Watergate incident, I would like to discuss the so-called tape controversy. United States, I As President of the instituted a tape system designed to record my place in posterior, excuse me, posterity. This ingenious system, built around a complex and a complicated Sony recorder, which only cost the taxpayers one thousand dollars, was used to record all sounds made in my Oval Office. Now concerning the tape matter. It is very difficult to explain what happened, for I am a very shy person; however my Quaker heritage dictates that I tell the truth. You see it was not a “mysterious force” as the late General Haig so ironically stated, it was only the product of unbridled passions and lust. My children, unknown to me, had been using the Oval Office as a trysting place where their desires and passions could be satisfied. Upon the discovery of the tape system, those involved attempted to cover up their actions by erasing the evidence of their lust and sin. We now have in custody all of these violators of my little girls, and all two thousand will be tried as common rapists. This fact now can explain my so-called enemies list which has been bandied about by the liberal press. I have also been threatened by many people who state that I have “subverted the Bill of Rights, secretly bombed Cambodia which violated the Constitution, tampered with the courts and the due process of law, violated the spirit and law of the electoral process, illegally impounded funds, and neglected to use Scope and Bodyall.” I categorically deny ail of these charges; is this the face of a crook? There have been rumors that my health is not good that I get up in the middle of the night and play the piano, or walk around the house muttering: “Out, out, damn tapes.” This is untrue, for only last night while talking to Ike, I remembered that my wife Pat disliked my fondness for solitude, so I called her from the maid’s quarters and allowed her to sleep at the foot of the bed where she could verify that I do not have trouble sleeping. Of course the press is out to get me, I understand that there is a plot which has been concocted by Walter Cronkite and Irv Weinstein. This is not to say that I’m against the press I’m only attempting to uncover distortions and lies which, if believed by the American people, could reduce the value of my Presidential papers. What has happened is that my enemies have assumed ghostly form and have been sabotaging all of my efforts at peace and prosperity. They were the ones who planned the Watergate affair, they were the ones that misled my daughters who thought they were doing a patriotic duty [see last week’s Through the Looking Glass], they were the ones that subverted my accountant’s mind, . have been responsible for the they . . . not me havoc of my reign.

The sophomoric article by a Mark Tobak, Stereo Sense, requires some response. His lead sentence is that of a typical pseudo-authority, with no documentation other than his own sweeping generalities. Perhaps he would like to demonstrate his expertise by conjuring up a better loudspeaker than the Advent, for less than $102.00. His “all salesmen are crooks” attitude is an unwarranted reflection on sales people in general. Perhaps he should spend a little time on a sales floor where he would learn rather rapidly that a professional salesman does not survive if he has the attitude Tobak implies In our business we have good and bad sales people, just as others do. Tobak’s obsession with the dealer making a reasonable profit is the typical bleating of the “I want something for nothing” clan. If demonstration, display and service facilities are worth nothing to him, let him buy by mail, cash in advance, pay the freight, wait, then assemble the equipment. When he has a service problem,'! suggest he crawl in a mailbox and mail himself to his “discounter” for the answers. The comments on imports and discontinued items are as inane as the rest of the article, since many people enjoy, exotic or unsophisticated equipment, which is their privilege. Discontinued items are frequently a good buy in this business, as In regards to an article in your paper on Friday, January 25, 1974, entitled “Stereo Sense,” written by a Mark Tobak. in many others. Finally, I suggest to Tobak that he: 1) Change his column name to Stereo Nonsense. 2) Leave his upcoming untitled volume untitled. 3) Sell it only by mail so he won’t have to pay a spiff or percentage to a bookstore. 4) Sell it at cost since I’m certain he would not want to make a profit on it. F.M. Sound Equipment Corporation Robert F. Clifford, Manager - 1. Who is Mark Tobak? and what qualifications does he possess to write such an article? 2. Has Mark Tobak ever worked in a retail store? 3. Does Mark Tobak own a Stereo System and where did he obtain same? Where does Mark Tobak live? and for how , 4. long has he been in Buffalo? These are only a few of the questions that arises after reading an article that is derogatory, demeaning and utterly ridiculous. From the first sentence to the last, Mr. Tobak shows his ignorance about a profession that is no different than any other business. It is just that Mr. Tobak thinks he is a maven about the sound business. There is no business in the world that can succeed without making a profit. Every businessman is entitled to make a profit so as to pay expenses which include: payroll, utilities, insurance, rent, freight, maintenance, advertising, etc. The amount of profit depends on the services performed. It is evident that Mr. Tobak does not know what he is talking about when he talks about large profit margins. Most businessmen are competitive and try to stay that way. Most Buffalo area businessmen and all members of the N.F.H.D.A. have legitimate business expenses I listed above. All have service stereo equipment. All member merchants of the N.F.H.D.A. have sound rooms that require elaborate and expensive switching boxes so as to demonstrate the floor models which by the way cost the same as stock merchandise and which the manufacturer does not give away or even give a discount for display. This all costs money and therefore the merchants have to realize a profit on his investment. After all, he could close up shop and put his money in the bank and get Dealers Association to purchase stereo equipment. We would like to publicly retract the phrases involved, since Buffalo is no better or no worse a place to buy audio equipment. The same selling tactics that may be employed in Buffalo occur throughout the country, and in many industries besides hi-fidelity. In summation, we do not seek to to organize. Local Harvey S. Kardaman, President Niagara Frontier Hi-Fidelity Editor’s note: A recent The Spectrum article, /entitled Stereo Sense, has come under some fire from local hi-fidelity retailers. Their basic objection was to the first paragraph, which singled out Buffalo as an especially poor place workers in their attempt & It is people like Mr. Tobak who expect the local merchant to show and display the merchandise to him and then sends away for same. What does he think the local merchant is? A Museum? As for the other problems in buying mail order, I can only point to the Courier Action article in the Buffalo Courier Express on Sunday, January 6, 1974, It proves that it costs people more money in the long run than it saves. Mr. Tobak better enroll in the Business, Marketing and Merchandising classes offered at SUNY. He needs some consuling as he just showed his ignorance and proves he has no common sense when he penned his article. departments that require expensive test equipment Support your cafeteria sponsored pays. and knowledgeable service technicians. It is evident that Mr. Tobak has never required service to his STUDENTS!!! Ad 7 to 8 per cent profit or he could invest into long-term bonds. Mr. Tobak, in his article, shows his ignorance by forgetting about these expenses. Mr Tobak also shows his misconceptions about private label speakers. The reason a dealer handles private label speakers is the same as a supermarket carrying brand name food items. The quality and profit margins remain the same but the consumer like Mr. Tobak can save money by not paying for brand name, fancy box and fancy packaging material. The house brands also may be grade A, but not extra fancy. For this reason the merchant is justified in comparing a higher priced brand name with a speaker that is basically the same but with a lower price tag. As for the alternative of mail order purchasing, Mr. Tobak should realize that- most mail order concerns don’t have to display, demonstrate or stock merchandise. Because they work out of apartments and post office boxes, they don’t have the expenses a legitimate local businessman has. Also, mail order concerns get their money before goods are shipped and therefore deposit the money and start earning profit before goods are delivered, which in some instances are weeks and sometimes months long. Also, there is freight added which the consumer condemn Buffalo retailers, many of whom are conscientious and reliable, but rather seek to inform consumers of potential pitfalls when purchasing paid for by audio equipment. 66, Hotal and Raataurant amployees and Cafataria workers.

JAflMESEHIKERS by yotfo - 874-5705 - �The play's the thing; except in this case when it's all music by Jay Boyar Spectrum Arts Editor If you haven't seen Jacques Brel Is Alive and Well and Living In Paris, you may find it hard to believe that the play consists of 25 songs but, unlike most musical plays, there is no attempt to connect the songs using a plot-line or dialogue. Still, it is not as if a producer sad ones, happy ones, other ones grabbed a batch of tunes wrapped them together, and called them a play. The show, in spite of its dearth of literal unity, holds together as a play in the best sense of the word. It is cohesive; themes run throughout it. the show's Brel (or, at any rate, Eric Blair and Mort Shuman translators and creators) is full of irony. It is this attitude which gives the songs the added dimension of being a play. Brel is ironic about practically everything: war, death, politics, bull fights, and the Salvation Army. He even leers at the very songs he is writing and at the stage conventions he adopts. In fact, the only "sacred cow" he sometimes recognizes is the theme of "love," which is not very deep, and for which he appears to want to apologize. Really, he seems to wish he could be thoroughly ironic about love, but it's too human and has torched him too closely to, keep his mocking mask forever in place. When he is sincere, he is so by default. — — — Well-ordered His usually-mocking tone is what gives the play life; the grudging concession to love is what gives it heart. Because it seems to demand that it is only entertainment (like most popular songs are) and yet creates a simple moving theme in spite of itself, it succeeds as a beautiful evening of theater. When director Douglas Maxwell gave himself the task of bringing a play to Mr. Anthony's Restaurant, he was faced with some sticky circumstances. Mr. Anthony's is a rather swanky restaurant on Transit Road (between Sheridan and Maple) that has adopted the practice of showing a play after serving a buffet dinner. Problem was, after eating a dinner at a restaurant, some people would prefer listening to music (so they can talk to friends and not watch things too closely) while other people would feel cheated if their after-dinner entertainment was anything less than a legitimate play. 2 birds w/stone T t F D i a' a fl 4 S' # y It would seem, then, that Jacques Brel would be the perfect production for the restaurant. If a patron wishes to listen to music, he can do so without missing any plot; if he prefers a play, then by listening closely to the lyrics, the songs become one. Under ideal conditions, this might have been marvelous. The trouble is that while Brel has this love of irony. Maxwell and his cast fail to see it. Since the irony is not especially subtle, their missing it is even worse than it might have been. Without it, the production falls apart as a play and becomes just a series of isolated songs. Maxwell has approached the project as if it were an Ed Sullivan Show: little entertainments which follow one another. The only concession the songs make to one another's existence, in this particular production, is that if song "A" is a happy, up-sounding song, then song "B" must be sad, and song "C" happy again. We have contrast, then, but no cohesion Egg in face Because the songs exist alone without an ironic dimension, some unfortunate choices are made. For instance, the show contains a song called "The Statue" in which a statue curses the man that erected him and wrote on the plaque what a virtuous man the statue's subject was. Actually, the statue's subject was something of a scoundrel in life, and considers the statue-maker a self-righteous bastard. Clearly, this is a comic idea, but the thing is played throughout for stark, intense drama. The show's creators wouldn't want the actors to poke us in the ribs and grin, but at least we should be allowed to laugh.

Ghoulies and ghosties. Long-leggedy beasties and things that go BUMP in the night. Vampires. Werewolves. Kid stuff, discarded with sleepers, Maypo and tonsils. Right? Wrong. In his Illustrated History of the Horror Film, Carlos Clarens observes: "Horror films have been called all sorts of names, ranging from incitement to crime to psychotherapy of the masses." The same analytic minds that wax ecstatic over what the worst Westerns reveal about human nature dismiss the brilliance of Metropolis or The Bridge of Frankenstein as "Above average for this kind of trash" that average apparently being quite low indeed. The hoary old gag about God loving bad whatever's because he made so many of them can certainly be applied to the horror film; the field has produced more than its share of absolute dogs. But even this hardly justifies the lack of attention horror films have received. Their popularity alone (the form goes back as far as Georges Melies' work at the turn of the century) should prove them a fit subject for — As man learns how to accomplish more and more things that were once thought impossible, he picks up more of the powers that were once reserved for God. At no other time in history has there been a stronger argument for atheism than now. But even as we resent being under the dictates of theology, we don't like to believe that you're horn and you die, and that's it. Surely there has to be something, something that denies rational explanation but still exists, something that Man Was Not Meant to Know, something supernatural And it goes both ways, too. It's no good to believe in God if you don't have the courtesy to believe in the Devil. (How many people do you know who’ve neither read nor seen The Exorcist 7) Filmed science fiction covers a lot of this same ground. But any dramatic work, to get into someone's psyche, requires personal involvement that the bug-eyed monster just can't provide. If Godzilla destroys the entire world, the scope of the enterprise implies that someone (e.g., you) is going to be overlooked. Even if you do go, you'll have lots of company. ...

Fillmore Room - Norton Hall Admission is free �'Don'tLook Now'is in Buffalo; advice don't go see mystery - by Randi Schnur Assistant Arts Editor The secret life of the mind — the almost-undeniable power of forces over which few people outside of novels and films can have any control has always fascinated those of us who grew up with the more down-to-earth, - non-nonsense variety of brain. Unsatisfied or bored with the natural and the conscious, we search the supernatural and the ultra-conscious for answers, excitement, or whatever solutions we need most... and we end up with religion, ouija boards, and films like Don't Look Now, based on a Daphne du Maurier short story. John, an architect doing preliminary studies of a Venetian cathedral he has been commissioned to restore, and his conspicuously unproductive wife Laura are discovered drinking wine in the den of their English country home while their two young children play near the lake outside. John spills a curiously bloodlike drop of wine on the slide he is examining (the first of many examples of director Nicolas Roeg's misguided love for sophomoric symbolism) and immediately runs out of the house, alerted by some instinct he refuses to acknowledge, to find his son crying over the body of the little sister whose breath has stopped bubbling up from the lake's floor. There follows a great deal of screaming, shouting, and beating of chests and suddenly we are having lunch in Venice, six months later. ... Sightless seer In the restaurant, Laura meets Wendy and Heather, two middle-aged sisters from England. Heather is blind, but what she lacks in "first sight" she more than makes up for in second. She sees little Christine, she tells Laura. The dead girl is "laughing, she's as happy as can be." Heather knows what we suspect but Laura won't find out for another reel or so that Daddy will be up to see her very soon. Laura meets the weird sisters again outside the cathedral, where she decides that contacting her dead daughter would be much more fun than watching John crawl around on the walls. Instead of bringing the hoped-for news about how much she is enjoying life in heaven, however, Christine issues a stern warning to her father: Venice means death. He, of course, remains an incredibly imperceptive doubter through all the complications and — sub-complications of the plot, until about five minutes before his bloody-and-gory end, when he suddenly and quite inexplicably embarks on his own search for the lost child. No peaking What strikes one most about Don't Look Now, apart from the oppressive air of chic which almost suffocates it, is that the main characters really don't look. Although director Roeg pours enough shriekingly obvious symbolism over our heads to drown us all, his actors refuse to recognize even one of the dozens of hints and references to doom he provides. (Perhaps he intended them to be for our eyes alone; after all, having John comprehend enough to actually leave Venice would have left Roeg with only half a movie.) When Laura first described how John seemed to sense Christine's tragedy. Heather remarked that he definitely shared her extra sense. This news must have come as a big relief to her, for without it he would apparently have had no sense at all. All of the suspense and excitement that this film should have had was buried forever by Roeg's obvious love of overstatement. His camera lingered forever on every object it found, making ominously sinister whole rooms full of things that were never seen again and had no importance whatsoever. Only Hilary Mason, as the blind Heather, is really interesting. As their liaison with the secret world which fascinates Laura while it leads her husband to his death, she wears a wide-eyed, all-seeing stare which draws us into it as surely as it does the two of them. Flag warning Dolly shot This has been a big year for Venice in American films. Several months ago, Paul Mazursky celebrated it as a city for lovers in Blume in Love probably for no other reason than his own love of its calm, ear less medevial beauty. Roeg's motives are, as usual, more obvious; where but in the City of Water could a drowned girl have such influence over so many people? Trying disastrously to outdo everybody all over the place, he finally succeeded in topping at least the gorgeous photography of the earlier film. Photographer Anthony Richmond makes the bridges, cathedrals, and canal-side houses of Venice infinitely more interesting than the story itself, even though the beautiful complexity of the city's exteriors cannot quite compensate for the lack of it inside Scenes like the one in which John finds a discarded baby doll at the edge of the Grand Canal and carefully picks it up, pouring water out of every joint, must have been conceived as being profoundly symbolic; but they instead have the ultimate effect of mocking the drowned Christine and nearly everyone else in the movie. The screenplay by Alan Sott and Chris Bryant fits in well here; the film is extremely talky and slow, especially near the beginning of the Venetian segment, and whatever interest it might possibly spark is hammered right out of us again by Roeg's constant visual restatements of each line. Julie Christie and Donald Sutherland, both fine actors, are prevented from making the film work (a feat which — either *of them could conceivably have performed single-handedly under more favorable circumstances) by a framework which limits the development of Laura's and John's characters to the point where we can see them only as very loving, very clothes-conscious, very boring, and the characters. Don't Look Now is a slick, lavish, and ultimately unsatisfying film. Nicolas Roeg has overloaded it with enough good and bad ideas to fill up several less ambitious projects, and a little bit more simplicity might make his next work seem a lot more intelligent. pretty dumb.

I'm sure one of Beckett's rare wan smiles. "I began to write Godot," Beckett says, "as a relaxation, to get away from the awful prose I was writing at that time." Waiting for Godot is Beckett's first play. When he began to write it he had already completed the novels Murphy and Watt, his trilogy ( Malloy, Malone Dies, The Unnameable), had published a book of early poems, and a book of short fiction. More Pricks than Kicks. America, Approaching death After the novels, the plays are important steps toward what seems to be Beckett's goal; silence, the isolation of the self, the soul at peace. Philosophy can be considered a meditation on death; to die well, to die honorably, to yearn to die, to fear death, to fear dying. In his work Beckett had contemplated almost every attitude toward death and sees it as a moment for which all life is a preparation. The preparation begins with isolation, the movement toward silence, the readiness to dispatch with the body, total peace and then, the Act itself. The plays foolow one another in progression. If Godot is a play about waiting. Endgame is a play about ending. Play by plaV Beckett sculpts, eliminates wastes, deletes the immaterial. Godot has five characters. Endgame four. Beckett writes a one-man show; a man, Krapp, talks to himself, records his last tape, reminisces his past, taped reminiscences. Beckett proceeds to immaterialize materiality itself. New plays follow. Plays with voices but without bodies the radio plays. Plays of the body without its voice the Estragon(Gogo) and Vladimir(Didi). A Master, Pozzo, and his slave. Lucky, happen by twice. The tramps consider hanging themselves from the tree, twice. Twice Godot's messenger comes to announce that Godot is indisposed, can't come, will come tomorrow. The tramps talk and wait. The missing guest And who is Godot? The critics (the dankest opprobium Gogo and Didi can find when they begin calling each other names is a triuphant "crrr—itic!") have wagged tongues endlessly. They notice, imagine, that there's God in Godot, they speculate, is a capital Dee'd Death. I am a trusting sort. I do believe that if a man is sane he is searching for something very much like his soul. I have a facility for smelling blood on the printed page. I believe that the true artist sweats to tell us what it is he knows. Beckett has said that if he knew what Godot was he'd have said it in the play. Godot would come. I believe the artist passionately. Godot is that for which we wait. Last week, a productionn of Waiting for Godot was presented, directed by Steven Adler, a member of the Center for Theatre Research, It was a creditable production, far from flawless, but consistently intelligent and right-minded. Andre Gregory and his Manhattan Theatre Project presented Endgame last year with a cast of approximately twenty (a four character play!). Punchlines were punctuated with pig—bladder thwacks. A son to his mother: Why did you bear me? Mother: I didn’t know it would be you. Thwack. I saw it and wept. I think that for Beckett's plays there exists a perfect, almost Platonic, mental production, toward which physical productions can only aspire. This production, directed by Adler, rates high for its sensitive aspirations. — — great commedians there've been. Each moment must be plotted, placed, timed. The two acts of the play are symmetrical; the staging must be planned to a hair-pin calibration. This is nearly impossible, but when has Beckett written or requested anything but the impossible? The acting in this production, with one touching exception, is on the whole rather bad. Gogo and Didi have been (perhaps too facilely) identified with the split between mind and body. This production seems to accept that interpretation. Thin, philosophical Didi; lumbering, hungry Gogo. Thin haggard Lucky, vocally corpulent, expansive Pozzo. The actors As Gogo, Steve Heisler displays an extraordinary talent. For all his bulk he is stunningly graceful. His comic sense is so precise it is hard to believe he is a student in a Theatre Program. I was delighted by him consistently. Didi, though, is played by Sam Drago, and it is hard to imagine a less considered performance in this role. He is too younng, both physically year-wise and emotionally actor-wise to understand the pain this role involves. To give Didi a character, he constantly emphasizes the odd word in each line an old actor's trick, to give the illusion of consideration and competence, swing the cadence off, reaccentuate the organization of the line. Unfortunately, I know of no writer who pays more attention to cadence than Beckett. The actor must lean in, give himself to Beckett's unique rhythm. Drago's odd line readings throw the meanings off, make him (he has a pleasant enough voice) a chore to listen to, and focus our complete attention on his partner Heisler, who, as I've said, is everything we'd want of a Gogo. Steve Adler's Lucky succeeds in reducing to mush the verbal texture of Lucky's thinking speech. Yes, it is gobbledyguck, noise, to us but it was once central to Lucky, everything he ever took seriously. Steve Classman's Pozzo is interesting for a while, but finally hollow and totally postured. The acid test is that when Pozzo returns, still vain, but blind and thoroughly pathetic, I felt no pain. A mistake w s made in casting a young woman in the role of the Boy, Godot's young son or attendant. Beckett's is not a male world, but it is a mono sexual world. The intusion of a woman(or of a man, in an all female production) throws off the balance. I will not judge her performance, likeable enough, it is the director's error. Steven Adler's direction shows a sensitivity to the play, it was, for all its flaws, a very honest production. — — Comic pain pantomimes. Some general comments though; Beckett's play, Finally, last year we encountered Not /; a spotlit mouth for some ten minutes sang its body's life's history. though about the void,-is a precise, exacting piece. It gives Beckett writes incessantly of the necessity for silence, for an actor stripes, it lashes. The humor is timed, with the the cessation os speech. After the novels, the plays come extraordinary timing of a Keaton, a Chaplin. Its humor, with the silences, pauses, blank spaces built in.

Many of the best recipies, however, are everyone the reader meets in the narrative. As a within the scope of the average kitchen and cook confirmed Wolfe-addict, I find this book to be one with a little care, patience and planning ahead. Be of the less brilliant in the canon.

February 1974 " �m ) Freddie Hubbard Keep Your Soul Together CTI What's a great writer like me doing record reviews? other guys create books you There's no future in it never forget, but who cares about reviews, much less the album being reviewed? Well, let's look at this record and maybe. get the job done Freddie Hubbard, damn, FREDDIE HUBBARD! He's the fuckin' greatest trumpet player in the work). He's fooling around on his horn and he's in control. But of course he's in control there's nothing happening around him to shake him up. Ah, but Freddie Hubbard. I saw him, live, stood ten feet away from him, and he played his horn, that's what it's all about. His pants leg was caught in his patent leather high-heels, and I was really worried he'd trip and fall right off the stage and just before he began I motioned to him and he looked down, probably to see if his fly was open, then he saw his cuff caught on his shoe and he laughed and played the next solo for me so sweet and blue and funky, like Picasso painting my self-portrait or Muhammad Ati landing a combination to my forehead. Freddie could make me listen to the national anthem (like you know who). Before he goes any further, he should really say something about CTI, the record company that produced this album. CTI has a habit of making sure their records live up exactly to expectations. There are no amazing discoveries in sound in the Trane tradition, and he's also sure they'll be excellently recorded and sound — ... - professional, oh let him think of some good analogy, like watching the Knicks beat Cleveland by fourteen points that's CTI if you're interested in good basketball. CTI also has a set of great musicians. They keep them chained in their dungeons and occasionally let them up to play on each other's records. So they get up into the studio and feel great about seeing each other, but they've been locked up so long none of them are anxious to break any rules or they'll be sent right back down to the dungeons for thirty lashes. Apparently most of them have died or escaped. For this album Freddie was forced to use his regular night club band. They're good musicians, and Junior Cook on tenor and Ralph Penland on drums were keeping things moving. But this is Freddie Hubbard's album, and the way he always plays makes it hard to forget it. In the sixties two monster jazz albums were made; Free Jazz, by Ornette Coleman and Acsension by Coltrane. Lots of other things happened in the sixties too, but only Freddie Hubbard played on both of those records. They're wild, searching albums and helped propel Freddie to the forefront of modern trumpeters, with all apologies due to Miles. Since then he's been a leader, and he's grown funky, and confident, blowing an amazingly full sound and doing things that are the envy of other horn men. I don't know if there is any place else to go with a trumpet minus electricity. I remember some fool (probably Hentoff) saying he could listen to Coltrane practice all day. But what was * M w Hr • ? v /** -231 H i*i'«l'4.irwi»< even more amazing about Trane were the compositions he wrote. Freddie puts together some fine songs, but they really aren't new, just good. This album sounds a hell of a lot like Red Clay, which is a hell of a criticism, since that's such a great album, but I guess I expect to see some movement on the part of my musicians. Ah fuck it I don't own Red Clay, and now I've got Keep Your Soul Together, and I'll most probably do just that. — — Jeffrey Benson Black Russian, gin and tonic.

So this was Charles Octet. I too had read the of being stayed away, afraid posters disappoihted at another slow gig. I grabbed a quick gin and tonic (the girl had apricot brandy) and we settled down along with the rest of the audience to hear what the band had to offer. The first song was called Orange and Red. Slowly the guitarist built a pattern of colors, the bass began to collide notes below, the drums, the organ, the sax, they kept building. There was a melody, then another, two sounds in the same place. I ordered a whiskey sour. This was no ordinary music. The song ended. I turned to the girl, who was itching to dance. Unbelievably the next song was a dance tune, and we glided to the dance floor hand in pocket, and swung to some flying rhythms. Everybody seemed to be having a good time. I generally don't like bars. The band kept smiling at each other. I don't blame them. I was anxious to get the girl to a more horizontal plane. We ordered another round, along, with a bowl of potato chips that kept sticking between her teeth. The band said "Last Revolutionary" and burst into this heavy rocker that had more speeds than my Mercedes. The sax soloed wild energy. The guitar and organ fought back. It was a sound wave chase to the last revolution. Charles Octet had come alive. I had go. My / r--------- Back and forth they went. Singing, rocking, swinging, but they were so young. I could see the influences. Hendrix, Pharoah, Cobham, and yet there was something else. Surely another big name. They said Charles Octet wrote all their songs. I'd have to see it to believe it. The band played two more numbers, and the girl and I exchanged funky glances over th£ bar. We danced to this song called “Schmaltz" and were layed back quiet by "Moonfull." The band said that was it, but the people yelled more and they played another for them, and had them dancing and laughing so their own parents couldn't have recognized them. This time they called it quits for good. I ordered a black russian to fill up the space and the band left. , I went up to talk to the musicians. Got their names. Norman Salant on tenor sax, Chris Locascio on clarinet, John Nicolas played bass, Chuck Hammer worked over a Les Paul, and Frank Post pounded the skins. All young guys, working hard. They complained about the small crowds it's an art for people to hear and push the musicians. They brought up the concert they'll be doing with the Firesign Theatre on February 22. That'll be their big chance and you can bet they'll play on fire. — I went back to Jhe girl. Her head lay resting on the wooden bar. She had finished my black russian and a shot of prune whiskey. Big girl. The music had left her stranded, murmuring Charles Octet. Well baby, maybe I'll see you on another day.

Later that day I had the golden opportunity to meet Elaine and discuss her work. I must admit that upon first viewing her photographs I was disenchanted. The print quality and its visual layout (mounting, spotting) was below a level that is usually shown in the music room. Yet iooking at her work, I felt a certain enchantment. The more I looked and began to see, the more I became involved with her photos of Guatemala. They seemed to me to display a youthfulness that was on the verge of maturity. And it was this bridge that attracted my eye. Elaine spent a year in Guatemala and has taught art in an American high school in Mexico City. She is presently here in Buffalo working on her M.A.H. degree. First explorations During her stay in Guatemala, her friend Marilyn Day (a photographer from the V.S.W.) convinced her to start photographing. Elaine, despite her art background, had never explored herself through the photograph. So this was her first directed use of the recording eye and its product. We talked about her photographing experiences, and one important idea she insisted upon was that she did not want her camera to be intrusive, to enter into the people's normal midstream. In her observation of the Indians she wanted, in a sense, to be a silent recorder. There was also a need to know the people whom she was shooting, to interact with them and learn from them. To Elaine, her photographs revealed the presence of the Indians' own special dignity. She strongly felt that her images exposed the difference between the American and the Indian, especially concerning the female aspects of the culture. In fact, the images reflect her understanding and the reality that she saw and understood. Breaking new ground My own feeling about the work is that it is exploratory. Do not look upon it as ground already conquered but as the photographer's exploration of a new map, showing only part of the territory. Before making a judgment, you must experience the work through your own filters. Elaine brought up the fact that the artist had no say on how the work would be presented to the public. I am sure that we are all capable of understanding the importance of the position of each work in relation to the rest of the show and its effect upon the viewer. I wonder if this ignorance of the artist's wishes is normal policy in the gallery? We must remember that the name and the reputation of the artist is determined by the public's reaction to the work. Being new in Buffalo, Elaine had the feeling that there should be a place where people in the field can get together, show their work, and meet people with similar interests. Just that is happening. At 3051 Main Street (near Minnesota Avenue), a non-profit organization is starting to get its feet wet. Its name is CERA, Center for the Exploratory and Performing Arts. The center is planning to have a photographic and related media gallery, and to hold photography, filmmaking, creative writing (led by local poets) and crafts classes. It will be opening in mid-February, and at present is looking for volunteers, equipment, and people interested in teaching in certain areas. For more information call CERA at 837-0195. FOR ALL 'Jacques Brel'... number of other songs. An even more disturbing tact is taken by the company when they actually recognize some of the more obviously funny portions in Brel, and play them for comedy. Almost without exception, they turn it into BROAD comedy with wily winks, embarassing "funny" facial grimaces, and smiles that shine like a studio "laughter" sign. Subtlety is completely abandoned in favor of burlesque. Check The principle offender here is George Magill; he looks like a more demonic Ron Hunter. Everything he does is entirely cutesy and contrived. Too bad actually, he has an interesting face which goes to waste everytime he moves. Joshya BoDaniel is just as guilty as Magill, but BoDaniel's soft, sad eyes and lamb's wool-like hair give him an endearing quality that usually saves him from looking too foolish. Alice Evans has just slightly better luck than the rest of the company at coping with Brel's irony, but she succeeds by throwing up her arms, resolving to do the best she can with the individual songs, and then going right ahead making each tune a beautiful, rich world in itself. She has such enormous control, class and experience (at least, ease) that she twists a song into something complete and her own. Also, she is fortunate in being spotlighted in some of Brel's more essentially — —continued from page MA/j^ m 9— Would you like to serious songs which don't demand much of a recognition of the unifying ironic intent The fourth member of the cast, Neva Rae Powers, doesn't really express much depth, but she is personable and that is about all. Oh yes, she has a nice, rich singing voice. In fact, each of the four members of the cast has a good voice; the quartet's tones blend smoothly together like the ingredients in a creamy milkshake. My objection is not that Mr. Anthony's is presenting something that is only entertaining. It is, rather, that they have selected a play that could be so much more than just entertaining, but it is sold down the river. Had they selected a show that was obviously and thoroughly a piece of fluff, and had they done it well, I would have no complaint. While this review may appear largely unfavorable (it is), that does not really matter very much because, in spite of everyting else, the show is entertaining. Since all that most people expect is some kind of entertainment, then this show should please them. Brel’s songs are often comic and occasionally very touching. Perhaps his most famous tune in this country, If We Only Have Love, has been played a zillion times on AM radio. And since music is always so much more vital and exciting at a live performance than on the radio, Mr. Anthony's production of Jacques Brel Is Alive and Well and Living in Paris is worth a look. While it fails as theater, it has limited success as night club entertainment. O meet some other couples? Have i- some fun, fellowship, and m c/) —I JO > > food?

He urged them to get the facts on how the oil companies operate by pressuring their representatives and cooperating with consumer investigative groups, such as the Western New York Public Interest Research Group (WNYPIRG). Public apathy will allov the industry to ignore pollution controls and jeopardize the entire country for their own narrow interests, he cautioned. He ended with both a warning and “If you don’t act, no one will” encouragement: ‘if the American people get behind the effort to make the oil industry accountable, the Congress will be forced to take measures in that direction and the problem could markedly improve in as short a period as six months.” — — Chile (Setting an Sbuortum by Allan Schear it active for several months, adding and withdrawing as usual.

That same week, a delegation from the Women’s International Democratic Federation, which recently returned from Chile, reported at a U.N. press conference that at least 80,000 men, women and children were slaughtered in cold blood by the Chilean junta in the weeks after it took power on September 11, 1973. Group spokeswoman Margot Mrozinski said that up to 50% of all families in Chile have been directly affected by arrests, torture or killing. foreign issue. Domestic critics of the Chilean junta have called for the withdrawal of all U.S. aid to the junta, and that political opponents be free to leave the country! A month after the coup, the Communist Party of Chile, a member party of the Popular Unity government, issued a statement to the people of Chile from the underground. This statement was reprinted in full in the December issue of Political Affairs, the theoretical journal of the American Communist Party.

Rick Feuerstein Student Legal Aid Clinic This article is the first in a series of four articles that concern Contracts and Legal Promises. Contracts are the promises between two mutually agreeing parties that have the characteristic of being a consentual relationship that is enforceable by law. One week ago Tuesday, some friends and I took a taxi to Shellkev’s Seafood for a quick dinner. After this delightful departure from my usual Grape-Nuts and milk dinner (quite economical), I began to wonder what the legal aspects of this night on the town were especially in the area of ordering the meal, quickly devouring it and finally paying for it. After many painstaking hours of perspicacious research, 1 narrowed down the area into a specific topic of law. The action I involved myself in, unknowingly, was that of a simple or informal contract; particularly an informal-implied-in-fact contract that met all of the requirements for making this contract valid. Confusing? The terminology sounds complicated especially when ordering the dinner was so simple, however the elements of this agreement are actually quite simple when explained. The area of implied contracts is one where the agreement is inferred from the conduct of the two parties involved and not specifically from the words stated. To qualify this, we can generally say that most people who engage in this form of contract don’t realize that a contract is actually present and is enforceable by law. The reason for this is that usually it is such a simple matter we engage ourselves in every day (like getting on a bus and paying as we leave) that we don’t think of it as a legal obligation. The rudiments necessary for forming a simple or informal contract are relatively basic. An informal contract is one that derives its binding effect from the substance of the transaction and from compliance with the requirements for a binding contract. Most contracts are of this kind. The first element is the offer. The second is the acceptance or promise. The two elements directly relate to the area of “mutual assent.” This simply means an agreement between both parties that pays homage to the basic nature of a contract as a relationship between the parties established by their consenting to being bound by the terms of an arrangement they have agreed upon. The third essential element is that of “consideration.” Consideration is a kind of price one party pays for the binding effect of appther’s promise. It can be money, but in general, it is the conduct or promise of conduct of one party given in exchange for the conduct or promise of conduct of the other party; similar to when you enter a taxicab and say “follow that car.” If the cab driver is on duty and follows it, then he has given the offer substantial consideration. When this type of contract is made, you, the patron who got into the cab, actually says: “I will pay you whatever the bill amounts to if you will follow that car.” The payment is implied as soon as your offer is transmitted. The contract is completed when the element of “performance” has been adhered to, and the promise of conduct expected is “performed.” This transforms the contract into one that is executed because it is completely performed. An executory contract is one that has not been completely performed and arises when partial completion of the promise has been given due consideration. To explain my eventful Tuesday evening at Shellkev’s and the contract that followed, we can see that the contract was created when I entered the restaurant, ordered the meal, and then consumed it. Even though I, the patron, nor Lou, the waiter, never used the words involved in a contract such as “offer, accept” or “promise,” a contract to pay the price of the meal was entered into and was enforceable by law. The contract was sufficiently performed by Lou and, therefore, when I paid for the meal, my end of the bargain was performed and the contract was completed. To explain how the contract could have been breached by the chef, we could hypothetically cite a case where, if I had specifically ordered a hamburger, medium rare, on a sesame roll, and received due to some error on the part of the management, a cheeseburger, well done, on a rye roll, with chopped onion. In this case I wouldn’t have received what the offer denoted and, therefore, would not be liable for payment (my consideration) of the subject delicacy. On the other hand, if 1, due to some mistake in transmitting the offer to the waiter, had ordered something I didn’t want, then it would hlave been my own negligance and I would be liable for payment. This area of contracts is, as its name implies, simple and informal. The law implies that there is or is not a valid contract from the words and conduct between the two parties. Let us not however confuse the simplicity of this form of contract with the enormous area of formal or written contracts such as checks, promissory notes, leases (written), etc. This area of contracts is one that can be extremely confusing and intricate especially in terminology and interpretation. Many questions arise from these kinds of contracts that affect almost everyone, because of this we must be very conscious of the stipulations within these before we commit ourselves to one.

Amtrak Anotherlook at the railways in the days of the energy crisis by Seth Baskin inter-city cruisers is enough to make entire towns gasp. As the cost of fuel increases and airlines are forced to cut back services and raise their fares, the Amtrak rates which officials say will remain constant will look even more appealing to travelers. The railroads arc currently enjoying a wave of popular approval and romantic admiration that would have made their 19th century critics role over in their graves. New York Times columnist Tom Wicker recently devoted his column to the benefits and drawbacks of a train ride between Haven, N.C. and Washington, D.C. Ticketing and reservations services could be improved by adopting more efficient means of keeping track of records, he said. The stations, which he called rememberances of a period of architectural grandeur characteristic of a bygone age, were well-kept and courteously staffed. Schedule arrival times were fairly accurate. The equipment used was “mediocre” while food and service en route were termed “favorable.” Spectrum Staff Writer America’s railways have begun to play an increasingly important role in passenger and freight transport since the energy crunch developed into a crisis last November. With their present equipment they have the resources to save fuel, reduce noise and curb air pollution emissions. They also provide a reasonable money-saving alternative to air travel. The nation’s inter-city rail links were organized into a federal corporation known as Amtrak nearly two years ago. The purpose of the new set-up was to coordinate and improve rail service wherever possible and to promote new services wherever feasible. As the threat of fuel rationing and increased gasoline costs grows greater, Amtrak may be playing a more important role in student efforts to travel home for the holidays and see the country during vacation <■' periods. If the inter-city rail lines are to be successful, they must be able to compete on equal terms with the airlines and buses. Cost will be a major consideration. - ‘ Air vs. rail A round-trip flight from Buffalo to New York City costs the passenger $69 27. If he chooses to go first-class, the fare increases to $89 The present youth fare discounts will be discontinued as of May 31. Approximate travel time on the Buffalo-New York air route is 50 minutes. However, when you include taxiing time, luggage pick-up, and travel to and from the airport, the time can add up to several hours. Round trip Buffalo-to-New York on Amtrak costs $41. The savings is approximately $30, and after several trips a year, the savings can amount to a substantial sum. The major drawback to rail travel is the time factor. A train ride from Buffalo to New York will take over eight-and-one-half hours. The train passes through numerous small towns and villages, stopping at stations whose names have vanished into the texts of New York Central Histories. The scenery ranges from objectionable in the industrial centers of the western part of the state to the breathtaking beauty of a trip down tracks delicately carved between the Catskills and the Hudson River. Appealing rates Bus service also involves a long ride. The price is comparable to Amtrak, but the seating arrangements are often cramped, the scenery consists of Thruway periphery, and the noxious emissions of the Quadruple efficiency The energy consurtaptioufactor in rail travel arc a prime consideration. A recent report listed trains as four times more efficient than automobiles in fuel used per passenger mile, and five times more efficient than airlines. Railroads also account for a considerable amount of long-distance freight carried. In 1970 they transported about twice as much freight as inter-city trucks. Because they are able to carry larger loads, trains spend less actual time travelling. This factor alone has had a dramatic effect on the environment. Recent studies indicate that trucks use four to six times as much fuel and produce substantially more air pollutants that railroads carrying comparable payloads. Long-distance rail travel still presents a number of problems. Most of the inter-city routes are operated with diesel engines. These engines represent an outmoded technology and emit considerable air pollutants. The alternative would be electric locomotives. Less than one per cent of this country’s railroads are electric, compared to roughly 37% in Europe and Japan. Locomotives running on electricity produce virtually no air pollutants. The power plants supplying the electricity to the rail lines produce far less carbon monoxides, nitrogen oxides and and hydrocarbons than diesels (per unit of fuel consumed .) The cost of converting to electricity was beyond the means of the independent privately-owned rails. With the formation of Amtrak, there is the hope that steps will be taken to provide even more beneficial service to the environment. Educational projects created for local residents by CAC We in the education area of Community Action Corps have been working on some major changes. Since 1965, CAC has had volunteers working within ten tutorial projects. Over the span of 8 years, the needs of the community have expanded greatly, while CAC’s awareness and contacts have remained virtually the same. During the past few months, we went full force into developing contacts, programs, and organizations facilities that deal with educational services. We believe that we have built the beginnings of a “Resource Center” which would allow for a range of interests and involvements from students from the departments of Occupational Therapy, Physical Education, Teacher Education and Speech and Hearing. We also feel that this type of set-up provides for a constant ongoing search for new ideas from both community contacts, students and the children we work with. Friendship House in Lackawanna, Tonawanda Indian Action Program and Creative Learning Project at UB have a core group of people working collectively in teaching children with various learning problems. This semester for the first time as an experiment, people working in Creative Learning Project will not only be working with children, but will also be required to participate in a weekly seminar that will deal with different aspects of learning, teaching, tutoring and the schools, so that volunteers begin to have a broader awareness of each child’s life as a whole rather than simply an understanding of his other learning disabilities. We Friday, are working on getting students deserved credit for their work and commitment. Along with these 3 large established projects, we have lists of people in Buffalo who are looking for interested students to fill positions in several areas. In educatipn we have contacts assisting in high school equivalency programs, elementary remedial reading classes and after school programs. In special education there are openings in working with mentally retarded, emotionally disturbed, physically handicapped, learning disabled, and speed impaired children in classroom, recreational and clinical settings. In alternative Education, people would be assisting in teaching various skills and activities in free schools. We meet with volunteers to discuss specific interests so that we can appropriately place them. All placements have been visited beforehand to make sure that adequate supervision will be provided for people who have not had the opportunity to develop skills in working tfith children. We have been working on developing a resource library of books, magazines, pamphlets and addresses of materials which certain information, ideas and awareness into a deep understanding of the complex workings of children who are trying desperately to survive in a world where so little is geared towards them.

NOTE: Today, February I, 1974, is the last day to initially register without the Dean ’5 approval. It is also the last day to drop courses without financial liability and without having an “R assigned. ” Q: 1 am interested in the Visiting Student Program. Can you give me some information about it? A: The Visiting Student Program enables students to attend other universities or colleges on a semester basis or for a year without really transferring out of SUNYAB. You must apply to the school which you would like to attend and be accepted. Until recently, you would register for DUS 485, a special course which kept your enrollment at SUNYAB active. This is no longer in effect. Now you must fill out a Special Action Request form which will enable you to register for courses at SUNYAB once you return. It is strongly recommended that you see your academic advisor in Diefendorf if you are interested in this program. Q: What is the train schedule from Buffalo to New York? A: Amtrack has four (4) trains a day two in each direction making the Buffalo-New York run. Eastbound, trains leave Buffalo daily at 8:25 a.m. and 1:15 p.m. The 8:25 train arrives in Albany at 1 ;55 p.m. and in New York at 4:55 p.m. The 1:15 p.m. train arrives in Albany at 6:50 p.m. and in New York at 9:50 p.m. Westbound, trains leave New York’s Grand Central at 8:30 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. The 8:30 train arrives in Albany at 11:20 a.m. and in Buffalo at 5:00 p.m. The 1 p.m. train arrives in Albany at 3:50 p.m. and in Buffalo at 9:30 p.m. - — Q: Why can’t you get a transcript if you haven’t paid your tuition? A: The biggest reason is that it is one of the few ways in which the University can collect its bills (esp. when the student has left). A transcript is one of the few things that you may need from a school. Therefore, there is a strict policy that no transcripts will be sent unless all bills are paid. There are few, if any, exceptions to this policy. Q; Can you give me some information about the Undergraduate Grievance Procedures? Who should I contact? What should I do? A: As stated in the Grievance Procedures for Undergraduate “A grievance shall include but not be restricted to a complaint by an undergraduate student; (1) that there has been to him a violation, misinterpretation, or inequitable application of any of the Regulations of the University, Division of Undergraduate Studies Faculty, or Department or, (2) that he has been treated unfairly or inequitably by reason of any act or condition, which is contrary to established policy or practice governing or affecting undergraduate students.” There are various levels at which a grievance may be filed or appealed. Copies of the grievance procedures are available in the Student Association office, 205 Norton, or in the Office of Student Affairs and Services, 201 Harriman. For further information or help, contact Dr. Ronald Stein or Ron Dollmann in 201 Harriman, 831-3721.

Rubin Staff Writer Spectrum Athletics is Buffalo. Yet fields one of teams in the hardly big news at Buffalo annually the better fencing northeast due, in part, to the efforts of coach Sidney Schwartz. Schwartz, now in his 28th season, has been coaching longer than any active Bull headman. Schwartz has led Buffalo swordsmen to ten North Atlantic Regional championships, far more than any other school. He organized the regional tournament in 1950 and is still the chairman of the tournament committee. Schwartz and fencing go back over forty years to his boyhood in New York City. “I lived in Brooklyn near Madison High School, and the fencing team used to practice in the schoolyard,” he reflected. “1 was an and 1 used to watch them and I thought I’d like it. So, when 1 came to Buffalo, there was a good YMCA group downtown. I took fencing lessons from an old Italian barber. Then I went to the University of Buffalo. They had just started a team the year before 1 went there. I went there in ’36 and was on the team in ’37, ’38, ’39, and ’40, eleven-year old THE ALBOMALOT OF PEOPLE HAVEBEEN ASKING FOR IS AVAILABLE AGAIN! THE SOUL OF A CITY BOY JESSE COLIN YOUNG Soul Of A City Boy has been out of print for six years and in that time has become a collector's item. It is not an old record, it is Jesse’s first record and still one of his best. - (GuattfC') Stuart Kutchins Inverness, California December, 1973 Schwartz takes over After the 1940 season, Schwartz took over the coaching duties on a part time basis. He remembered: “We only went a couple of years after I graduated of the war. We couldn’t get equipment and there were no men in the school. So, they discontinued the sport for four years. In 1945, however, fencing was reorganized at Buffalo, and one year later Schwartz became coach. Schwartz’s squads have compiled an overall record of 342-132. Schwartz has coached four all-Americans, while at the same time holding down a job with the Internal Revenue Service. Schwartz now is the owner of one of the newest, largest, and most beautiful facilities of the McDonald’s restaurant chain. The eatery, located in Niagara Falls, Ontario, is being run mostly by Schwartz and his son Ira. Since its opening last August, Schwartz has been beseiged by heavy work loads and huge bills, but plans to reap the profits soon. “Next summer we should make enough money here to not have the worries I have about financing now,” he predicted. McDonald’s detracts from Schwartz’ coaching time in the same way that his government job did. How can a team which has relatively little practice (6-8 hours per week) consistently win more often than lose? Schwartz explained, “There’s a couple of reasons for that. Fencers are a different kind of athlete than basketball or football players. For the most part, they’re dedicated. For years we had no money for fencing at all at the University. The boys that wanted to fence had to pay their own expenses. The reason we have a pretty good team today is that we get some pretty experienced fencers. People come to us and ask if we can get them into school.” WU1 stay on Schwartz has no intention of retiring from coaching. He said, “I’d like to see them get a full time coach. If they would get a full time coach, 1 would step down and help the coach. In fact, 1 was hoping Jules (Assistant Coach Jules Goldstein) would take it this year, but his job is nights too.” As far as this year’s team is concerned, Schwartz is quite pleased with the Bulls’ 6-1 record. He observed, “I didn’t think we would be doing as well as we are doing. The scores we’re winning are tremendous scores. by [Buffalo has outscored its opponents 147-72 this season.) You usually, don’t find that.” As for tomorrow’s match against Hobart, Schwartz had this to say: “We’ll beat Hobart. We won’t have any trouble there.” Friday, 1 February 1974 . The Spectrum . Page twenty-one �Alumni selling tickets to earn money for Bull scholarships by Dave Geringer Sports Editor v An increase in scholarship monies at Buffalo is the probable result of a plan announced Wednesday by the Alumni Association. 2000 tickets to the Buffalo Braves-Los Angeles Lakers game at Memorial Auditorium Feb. 26 will be sold by the alumni in conjunction with United Auto Workers union local 1173. The proceeds will be donated to the Buffalo scholarship foundation and conceivably be used for basketball scholarships. “We were given the tickets by the Braves management,” reported Alumni News editor Bill Dock. “We get a percentage of the face value.” Alumni Association executive director Dave Michael disclosed the steps taken to arrange the ticket sale: “We had this idea in mind when we were approached by the UAW’s community services director, Leo Lamb. They had the idea that they would sell tickets for a Braves game with the proceeds to go to the scholarship fund. They wanted to play a preliminary game at the Auditorium (local 1173 will face local 774 in the prelim to the Braves contest Feb. 26). They also wanted the community exposure. We went to the Braves and (owner) Paul Snyder, an alumnus, was very receptive.” Hope for future Michael was hopeful that similar arrangements could be made in the future. “Let’s hope it is the start of something bigger,” said Michael. “We’ve got the Braves, the university and the UAW all working together. The more we can do of this, the more we will do everybody wins. The Braves profit from the gate sale, we get scholarship money and the union gets good community exposure.” - Michael revealed several possibilities fo t the future. “We have in the works a concept for a high school all-star football game. They used to have one in Buffalo, but they dropped it. The game would he played right here at Rotary Field, and the proceeds could be twenty to forty thousand dollars, which could be used for research. We would also like to work something out with the Bills,” Michael added. Basketball Bulk drop a pair on road trip Klym —with a puck a record breaker 5 The basketball Bulls ran their FAIRFIELD road record to ten defeats without a victory this week, dropping a pair of second-half decisions to Catholic and Fairfield Tuesday and Wednesday nights. Buffalo was on the short end of a 33-30 score at halftime against Fairfield before dropping an 84-58 decision to the Stags, now 7-o at home this season. Tuesday, in the nation’s capita), the Bulls wasted a 48-41 advantage at intermission and lost a 91-84 thriller to the Cardinals. Catholic, led by forward Bob Adrian’s game-high 28 points, raced back from their seven-point deficit to gain a 71-71 deadlock. The Cards then ran off six points and took an 81-77 lead before Adrian fouled out with five minutes to go. The Bulls pulled to within two at 86-84 and had a chance to knot the score when Ken Pope, who tallied 17 points had a short jumper go in and out with 26 seconds left. Buffalo outrebounded Catholic 49-43 and again tied the school assist record for the third straight game. Buffalo shot a torrid 61% from the field in the first half, winding up at 46% for the game. - Bulls determined The Bulls came out the next night against a far superior Fairfield squad and seemed determined to make up for their poor performance against the Cardinal (4-11). Buffalo came out in a full-court zone press and forced the Stags into ten first-half turnovers, five by co-captain John Ryan. The 6-3 senior guard, who failed to score during the game, handed out eight of his fifteen assists in the first half and made a key steal of a pass from the Bulls’ Gary Domzalski as Buffalo was stalling for the last shot of the half, while down by 3.1-30. Buffalo’s Otis Home scored on a layup midway through the half to pull the Bulls to within 55-44 before Fairfield turned on the Richie O’Connor show. O’Connor, a senior transfer from Duke, sat out last season before being named the Stags’ co-captain without having played a minute in a Fairfield uniform. In the next five minutes, O’Connor outscored Buffalo 13-2 on his way to game scoring honors with 25 points. The burst doubled the Stags’ lead to 22, virtually wrapping up the contest and giving Fairfield a 10-5 season log. Stags control boards Fairfield’s 6-11 center, Craig Moorer, snatched 18 rebounds to lead the Stags to a 55-31 command of the boards. Horace Brawley scored 18 to lead the Bulls’ scoring. Fairfield coach Fred Barakat was overly praiseworthy of the Bulls. “Buffalo’s a good team, they did some nice things out there,” remarked the Stag mentor in a post-game interview. ‘They’re a well-disciplined club. They forced us into 23 turnovers,” Barakat added. What Barakat failed to mention was that thirteen of the 23 occurred late in the second half with reserves seeing most of the action. The Bulls returned home to face Colgate tomorrow night in Memorial Auditorium. Hockey Bull skaters to match blades with Division I foe Colgate The hockey Bulls will make their third and final attempt this season to defeat an ECAC Division I squad when they invade Colgate’s Starr Rink tomorrow night. The Red Raiders are 6-12-1, coming off wins over Clarkson (3-2) and Division II opponent Massachusetts (11-2). The latter victory broke an eight-game losing streak. The key to the Raider fortunes this year has been goaltender Chris Grigg, who has played all but five minutes of the season. “Grigg has been consistently inconsistent,” related Colgate DSI Dave Leonard. “He looks like he could beat any team in the National Hockey League on Saturday night, then on Wednesday night any junior high school team could put the puck by him,” Leonard added. Veteran Clarkson braodcaster Con Elliot analyzed Tuesday’s 3-2 Colgate victory over Clarkson (which conquered Buffalo, 6-2, earlier this season). “Clarkson would have the pressure on and then a guy would take a pass, sneak out, go down the ice and score,*’ remarked Elliot. “They must have had five breakaways against Clarkson. The difference was Grigg. He played very well.” Colgate adapts Leonard reported that Colgate did not use the same style at all times. “We’re adaptable,” decided Leonard. “It depends on the people we play. If we play a close-checking team, we’ll probably dump and run. If we play a team that lays back, we’ll probably carry it in. We just had too much speed for Massachusetts. Our wingers went around their defensemen all the time,” Leonard added. The Bull defense will be bolstered by the return of top rearguard Mark Sylvester, who missed the past three contests due to a knee injury. Don Maracle, whose 48 saves against the Raiders in last season’s 4-3 loss at Holiday Twin Rinks earned him ECAC weekly honors, is the probable starter tomorrow night. “The way he’s played in the last two games, I have to go with him,” said Buffalo coach Ed Wright. ftige twenty-two The Spectrum . Friday, 1 February 1974 . The naming of Buffalo right wing Mike Klym to the ECAC Weekly all-star team last week is another in the series of accomplishments that Klym has achieved in his record-breaking 1973-74 hockey season. Klym has broken five records so far this season and tied another. Klym set three marks by scoring five goals and four assists a 19-6 victory over in Framingham en route to the AIC Tournament’s MoSt Valuable Player award. Klym broke records for most goals and points in a period (four and six, respectively) and most goals in a game (five) while tying the standard for points in a contest (nine). Mike has also taken over the lead in career goal and point races. Klym now has 66 career goals and 120 career points, while his 54 career assists leave him second to Bill Newman’s 60. Klym attributes his success at least partially to playing a different style this season, concentrating on passing as well as shooting. “I’m playing a better style of hockey,” revealed Klym. “Passing was the thing 1 didn’t do much of the last two years now it’s paying off. Also, I’m playing with Johnny (Stranges). Johnny’s scoring goals this year so that adds up,” said Klym. Klym discussed his shooting - style: “Coach (Wright) has been telling me to keep the puck low. I’ve learned how to keep my shot down my first couple of years I always around the was goal tender’s head. As long as you keep it down, the goal tender hasn’t got that much to stop it with,” decided Klym. Klym affirmed that his experience working with Stranges had been helpful. “What I need is a lefthanded center, someone who can give me the puck,” said Klym. “1 played with Johnny last year and we work well together. If I’m breaking, he’s going to give me the puck and vice versa.” Bull coach Ed Wright assessed Klym’s play: “Mike has matured and become a more complete player. He’s moving the puck better, playing better defense and establishing himself as a leader. I think that he has to work on his defensive play and maintaining his position. If he can do the job defensively, his professional chances are excellent,” Wright added. Klym revealed that his plans included pro hockey. “Definitely, I want to try for pro, as soon as possible,” said Klym. “If I can keep having a good year, it is all the better.” It will be all the better for both Klym and the hockey Bulls’ drive for the ECAC playoffs. - IF YOU’RE GOING TO GATHER IN THE AFTERNOONS, WHY NOT TRY “YOUR PLACE” DISCOTHEQUE f formerly The Beehive) 864 Kenmore Aue. 874-6512 FREE play juke box BEER 25c glass, $1.45 Pitcher 50c Cocktails 65c $ 1.00 OFF ON ANY PIZZA!

Arts and Letters Provost John Sullivan said he discussed the issue at departmental meetings, and the majority favored a resolution stating the one hour/one credit system was acceptable provided it was on a University-wide basis and not a Faculty basis. “Some thought courses had not significantly changed under the four-course load system,” he added. while such representation would be inappropriate, “we won’t discuss anything affecting students without inviting students to the AAC. I’m incredulous that he allowed the decision after he verbally told me he’d hold off on any issue affecting students until students could be present,” Mr. Dandes said. ‘The retention of the four-courseload is the most important issue to students on this campus. Dr. Gelbaum’s failure to consult with us is a political move and totally inconsistent with the policy he expressed to me a month ago.” Said SA vice-president Dave Saleh: “1 feel Dr. Gelbaum lied to students in this ‘No reason educationally’ instance.” In the History department, reported chairman Clifton Yearly, the Doesn’t involve students “overwhelming sentiment” was that there “Students will be consulted by the was ”no reason educationally to switch President,” said Dr. Gelbaum when Mr. back.

University President Robert Ketter subsequently reinstated five of the cancelled courses and allowed the others two weeks to comply with University regulations. Student and faculty reactions to Dr. Gelbaum’s cancellations were widespread and varied. In a letter to Dr. Ketter last week, Student Association (SA) President Jon Dandes wrote that it would be in the best interests of the students and all parties concerned if “Vice President Gelbaum [were to] be relieved of his administrative responsibility and be replaced with someone who can deal realistically and effectively with our different academic concerns.” “Any real progress or communication between students and the Administration remains impossible with Administrative ‘monolith’ “Given the tenor of this campus,” commented Dr. Kennedy on the possibility of replacing Dr. Gelbaum, “I don’t think there is anyone else in the administration who. would be any better.” A similar view was expressed by American Studies professor Lillian Robinson: “We have to realize that the administration is a monolith and is not made up of individuals. He [Gelbaum] is not unique in his non-progressiveness, although on this issue it may appear this way. They all act pretty much the same.” Ms. Robinson, however, felt that Dr. Gelbaum’s removal from office would serve a purpose. “Once we don’t have Qclhaum, we can see how much more there is to be done. It would accomplish the limited purpose of letting individuals know the power of public pressure,” she said. Much of the criticism being leveled at Dr. Gelbaum has referred to his past record as Academic Affairs vice-president, viewing the College E course cancellations as the latest in a series of controversial actions. Often cited as a source of criticism is Dr. Gelbaum’s appointment of H. Curtis Bennett, whom the Collegiate Assembly rejected 9-1 as its director, as his Assistant for the Colleges. “I don’t think it was a good idea,” asserted William Stein, professor of Anthropology. ‘Not very sensitive’ According to Dr. Stein, Dr. Gelbaum should have consulted the Collegiate Assembly before choosing Dr. Bennett. Terming Dr. Gelbaum “a man not very faculty, students or sensitive to people Stein said he “wouldn’t Dr. anybody,” shed any bitter tears if Dr. Gelbaum would resign. This University ought to be run by and students instead of faculty administrators.” “I’ve criticized Dr. Gelbaum before,” noted Harold Segal, professor of Biology, “and I would like to see him replaced and 1 think that in due course it will happen.” He continued; “Dr. Gelbaum has the right to attempt to eliminate courses that are inappropriate; those that don’t have sufficient academic substance or that are taught by unqualified personnel.” However, “his actions were high-handed Structure? New proposal to reorganize IRC s policies and duties — - and untimely, and he failed to discriminate between courses that have legitimacy and those that don’t,” he said. Dr. Segal also objected to Dr. Gelbaum’s means of investigation, maintaining that “he should have made sure he was tight in his facts.” “I’m not happy about what has happened, but I don’t think we should start any local impeachment movement because I don’t think there are grounds to impeach him,” said Michael Metzger, professor of German. Dr. Metzger suggested that consideration be given to Dr. Gelbaum’s proposals: “There’s nothing to worry about in his unilateral actions, if he says these things and they balloon, he is still just making suggestions.” “It’s not just Gelbaum; it shows the incompetence of the Administration in unblinkable ways,” said Larry Chisolm, professor of American Studies. ’They had all this time to establish human contact with College E. Instead, they issue an ultimatum, then back up when people throw up their hands.” Instead of pluralistic discussion, he said, “power has been aggregated to a centralized group in which three or four people impose their educational philosophy on the University.” IF YOU’RE GOING TO GATHER IN THE AFTERNOONS, WHY NOT TRY “YOUR PLACE” DISCOTHEQUE (formerly The Beehive) 864 Kenmore Aue, ■874-6512 * FREE play juke box * - - by Amy Dunkin next year,” added Mr. Regenbogen.

A generally negative feeling towards unbearable IRC on the part of its members and a low morale among its officers has necessitated this action, according to Activities Chairman Mitch Regenbogen. “With a voluntary fee organization, people question why they are paying money,” Mr. Regenbogen said. “For activities alone, we spent $2800 more than last year, there were a greater number of events, and we had to plan events on both campuses. And people still complained they weren’t getting their money’s worth,” he explained. An overall dissatisfaction with IRC was revealed in a recent survey: 95% of the IRC fee-payers polled would not pay their fee again next year. Brainstorm needed Tomorrow at 9 p.m. in Goodyear Cafeteria, IRC will sponsor an open forum to discuss ideas for improving the organization. The general consensus among IRC’s executive committee members is that they will delay the March election, if necessary, until some solution is set into action. “Five new people. can’t feel the problems the way the present IRC has in the last 12 months,” said Mr.- Regenbogen. “Something must be done now.” Several ideas to redirect the goals of the IRC have already been tossed around in its Goodyear office.

Mr. the organization will destroy itself. Although he feels Regenbogen was somewhat skeptical of this idea, the only way IRC can work effectively is with a observing that people may not be interested in mandatory fee, he opposes this solution on the running a government that doesn’t handle money. Mr. Rainer recommended that “something be grounds that it would be unfair to dorm residents. with effective SA, guaranteeing an In previous years, noted IRC vice-president Jess arranged Rainer, IRC only had to serve one campus through a government arm for the dorms.” IRC could still centrally-located office in Tower Hall. “IRC only handle the businesses, he said.

Wasteful.” He said a change of lifestyle was needed for the long-term energy shortage, but he wondered “whether a nation that has had it so good for so long can adjust.” New sources of energy are imperative, said Senator Eagleton. Such virtually unlimited sources as solar and geothermal energy will not be economically feasible for 20 years, “nevertheless a beginning has to be made and it has to be made now.” Nuclear power, “not an unmixed blessing,” oil shale and coal would serve as more immediate answers, but only after severe economic and environmental problems were solved. Energy crisis is caused by all by Clem Colucci Contributing Editor With recriminations flying back 'and forth blaming big oil companies, governmental regulation and the White House for the current fuel shortage, Missouri Senator Thomas Eagleton placed the blame squarely on “two hundred million American people” Monday night in Clark Hall. With the political climate such that people can plausibly feel the energy crisis is a diversion, the short-lived 1972 Democratic Vice-Presidential nominee had to assure listeners: “We don’t know the precise dimensions of the energy crisis, but we are short.” “Politicians of both parties, in all walks of life, are held in low esteem,” said Senator Eagleton. But if the reactions of the 2,000 people who trudged through mud and snow to hear him were any indication, he was wrong. There are some politicians from which you would buy a used car, and Tom Eagleton was clearly regarded as one. Senator Eagleton said the energy crisis had two from this winter components: the immediate problem through the end of 1974 and the long-range crisis lasting essentially forever. ' — — Numbers game He recalled that former energy czar John Love had estimated the short-term oil shortfall at 3 to 316 million barrels daily. His successor, current energy chief William Simon, stuck to these figures for a while but then reduced the estimated shortage to 800,000 barrels a day. This smaller estimate is manageable within the voluntary measures the American people are now taking, said Senator Eagleton, but the larger estimate would require more stringent measures. So Congress is “belatedly” trying to get accurate statistics on the real extent of the oil shortage. Though the government has kept statistics on a number of things employment, trade, etc. no one has kept track of energy simply because America has become so used to a seemingly unlimited supply. As a result, people have no accurate information and become confused. Senator Eagleton said he recently spent several days in Missouri wi|h his constituents. He said they had heard that stocks of five out of six of the major petroleum products were equal to or greater than the supplies last year when no one made a great deal of noise about the energy crisis. Missourians proverbially want to be shown, and when they asked Senator Eagleton to “show me,” he “didn’t have a very satisfactory answer.” The long range picture is even bleaker, said Senator — — —Santos Thomas Eagleton Eagleton. The American people have been “gluttonous” in their energy consumption, he said. He did not spare his own family’s habits from criticism when he told of his wife’s self-cleaning oven that uses the energy equivalent of 60 pounds of coal each time Ms. Eagleton flips the switch. His home has central air-conditioniing for all nine rooms, even though only three or four are used often enough to justify the air-conditioning. “One of the rooms is so damn I THE U.B.

Important re-organizational meeting Old Other topics Senator Eagleton addressed himself to other topics to questions from the audience. Asked why he response in voted against the confirmation of Gerald Ford as Vice-President (along with Democrats William Hathaway of Maine and Gaylord Nelson of Wisconsin), he replied’ “Gerald Ford is a decent, likeable man, a man of integrity and if he were being considered in the isolation of the Vice-Presidency I would have voted for him.” But with the very real possibility that he might become President, Senator Eagleton felt Mr. Ford just wasn’t good enough. In 25 years in the House Mr. Ford has had no important part in any significant piece of legislation, said Senator Eagleton. Conscious of Vice-President Ford’s collegiate football career, Senator Eagleton call him “a blocker, not a passer” of legislation. He also mentioned Mr. Ford’s admitted ignorance of foreign affairs and said Mr. Ford’s assurances that Secretary of State Henry Kissinger could handle things was not good enough. Though he had high praise for Dr. Kissinger, Senator Eagleton said no President should hand a Secretary of State a blank check. Asked the inevitable question about the effect of his mental health history on his Vice Presidential candidacy. Senator Eagleton answered: “I don’t think I was ill-treated either by McGovern, the press or the public.” Senator Eagleton rose to emotional heights at only one point in his answers. “We are a crisis-oriented society,” he said: “It isn’t until Lake Erie is a swamp that we get concerned about saving the Great Lakes.” The American people have gotten spoiled, said the Senator. His voice raising to the loudest volume in his talk. Senator Eagleton said: “How many petitions have I gotten from Missouri saying ‘it’s necessary for me to have my car. I’ve waited until 1 was 16 so I can drive.’ That’s success, man. Success American style.” He also answered a question concerning his vote to sustain the President’s veto of a war powers bill Senator Eagleton had originally sponsored. He explained that the bill was altered in the House to give the President the power to commit troops in any amount, at any time, to any place, for any reason. He predicted that “we will rue the day this was passed as we rued the day the Gulf of Tonkin resolution was passed.” H i PLAYING SAT-SUN FEB 2-3-CONFERENCE THEATER Starring James Caan and Sally Kellerman The Spectrum is published three Monday, times a week, on Wednesday and Friday, during the regular academic year; and once a week, on Friday, during the The summer months; by Periodical, Spectrum Student H.

Charles Ebert. “I firmly believe any change-over from the present system must come from the Faculty-Senate, which is charged with determining academic policy.” He continued; “I am totally opposed to going back across-the-board to the five-course load.” Rather than decide on any “fixed load,” Dr. Ebert favors a “more flexible system” of variable credit. Be specific Some science courses involve hours in the lab, while some history professors assign an “enormously heavy outside reading load” of two or three books a week, he explained. “I don’t like an across-the- board solution,” Dr. Ebert said, “we shouldn’t box ourselves in. Instead we should determine the specific value of specific courses.” There are two aspects of flexibility in the AAC proposal, Dr. Gelbaum explained: “For most courses, one credit hour could be given for one contact hour... two contact hours of lab would also be worth one credit hour... some other courses might generate more credit.” Secondly, “should every course be worth four credits? A student may want to combine different numbers of credits until they equal 15 or 16,’ Dr. Gelbaum different 1— weakens our claim for more faculty. Albany’s Division of the Budget, however, said the four-course load is not considered in determining the budget (see story, page numbers of credits until they equal IS or 16,” Dr. Gelbaum 4]Regarding the Faculty-Senate report Total faculty productivity has declined, a to the five-course he believes, as a result of the “ridiculously which rejected switch load last May, Graduate School Dean light load” being carried by some faculty MacAUister HUH said: ‘There was much members who arc “getting away with discussion with regard to the validity of murder.” However, Dr. Ebert does not that conclusion.

Explaining why there had been no vote at the AAC meeting which recommended the switch, Dr. Gelbaum said: ‘There was no dissent after careful consultation with all those present. We generally proceed without a formal vote. We discuss these matters until they have been fully discussed. Unless I hear objections, I take it to be a consensus.” AAC member Dr. Sullivan agreed: “Nobody was speaking up against it. When someone say something and no one objects, the resolution passes.” Some department charimen surveyed, he added, “thought that courses previously given for three credits were not beefed up. This could have been caused by human frailty,” said Dr. Sullivan. Last spring, the controversy over whether to switch from a four- to a five-course load reached an impasse with the AAC supporting such a switch and a Faculty-Senate subcommittee rejecting it. The question has now been rekindled by the AAC; the Facult-Senate- executive committee will determine the next step today as both students and faculty watch very closely. --------------- State budget Albany: 4 credits is nofactor Those who favor the removal of the four-course load have often argued that because it reduces the number of faculty-student contact hours, it reduces the allocation this University receives in the state budget. An investigation into next year’s state budget has proved otherwise. According to Joseph Fernandez of the State Division of the Budget, the State University of Buffalo’s proposed allocation for 1974-75 is $2.8 million greater than the previous fiscal year. The State University at Binghamton, the other SUNY University Center operating under the four-course load, has been budgeted for a $1.4 million increase. “A large portion of the increase is due to very high increased costs for utilities,” said Mr. Fernandez. “However, we base most of the budget on the number of full-time and part-time students enrolled.” Mr. Fernandez said Stony Brook and Buffalo receive special consideration in budget matters because they have Health Science facilities on their campuses. ‘Strictly a campus decision’ When asked about the effect of the four-course load and student-teacher contact hours on the budget allocations, Mr. Fernandez said: “We make no decisions regarding academic programs at individual institutions. That is strictly a campus decision.” Although he is aware of the problems with student-teacher contact hours, he said: “We couldn’t possibly determine a budget on those terms, it is just too big.” A staff member of the Ways and Means committee of the State Assembly said he “had never heard of student-teacher contact hours.” The Ways and Means committee must approve the budget before the entire Assembly approves it. The aide provided the same figures as Mr. Fernandez regarding next year’s budget appropriations, but also offered a further breakdown of the budget. The $2.8 million increase does reflect some cuts, he said. However, none of the cuts were due to the four-course load. Two were reduced rental payments, and one was due to the elimination of two staff members in the nursing faculty because of overstaffing. Responding to the question of whether the four-course load was a factor in determining budget allocations, the aide, who requested anonymity, said: “Definitely not . . . I wouldn’t think . . . that could possibly determine the budget for an individual university.” He said a large portion of the increased allocation was due to the hiring of over 70 additional faculty. - 0 0 0 « 0 D ■ , Cut out and Save!

Serving as a focal points for public attention, the upcoming Wounded Knee trials to be held in St. Paul, Minnesota will bring the underlying tensions of - — contemporary Indian culture to the forefront. The issues and actual charges facing the defendants have gradually been relegated secondary importance. The Federal Government has charged several of the Indian leaders with criminal trespass and attacks upon federal and state officials. Ramon Robideaux, Chief Defense Counsel for the Indians, presented his case Sunday in a speech to students and local Indian leaders in the Fillmore Room. Mr. Robideaux, a Sioux Indian from the Pine Ridge Reservation, has been touring the country in recent months informing the public about both the pre-trial proceedings and subsequent events in the towns of Custer and Wounded Knee where much of to the trouble began. Legal disputes The central argument of the Wounded Knee defendants is that the entire sector of western South Dakota where the 1973 disturbances took place is actually Sioux land. According to a treaty signed in 1896, the cessation of Indian land to outside interests is forbidden with the consent of three-fourths of the adult male population. ‘‘No such permission was ever granted,” Mr. Robideaux stated emphatically. Defense attorneys have entered a motion that all charges be dropped because the alleged infractions occurred on land which is legally under Indian jurisdiction. “Treaties are the supreme law of the land,” said Mr. Robideaux. “Indian agreements are a part of that law; there should be no :v contradictions.” Approximately 50 lawyers are working for the defense. There is no shortage of moral support and volunteers, but financing the court proceedings has been another story. Contributions have primarily been in the form of small sums. The flow of money has been steady, but the lack of any major donations has forced the defendants to raise money whenever possible. An impromptu passing of the hat after Sunday’s Fillmore Room speech raised over $ 130. * . Vicious buracracy The Federal Bureau of Indian Affairs (B1A) is trying to “dominate the Indian mind and his way of thinking,” said Mr. Robideaux. Terming the B1A as the “most colossal failure of all time," he charged them with cooperating with various Indians and half-bloods on the Tribal Councils to perpetuate “a vicious bureaucracy designed to strip the Indian of his cultural identity.” Mr. Robideaux’s comments were made in reference to the upcoming runoff elections at the Pine Ridge, S.D. Reservation. The runoff will be held on February 7 between the incumbent, Dick Wilson, and the progressive candidate, Russell Means. Together with members of the American Indian Movement (AIM), Mr. Robideaux has publicly accused Mr. Wilson of “harassing voters and badgering those who disagree with him.” Mr. Wilson, for his part, has stated that if he is re-elected, “those who fail to comply with my policies will be forced to leave the reservation.” The tribal election is tied closely to the scheduled trials in St. Paul because Russell Means, candidate for Chairman of the Tribal Council, is also one of the defendants. This connection between trial and election raises several interesting questions. Defense attorneys are challenging the right of the federal court to try a Tribal Chieftain. The confusing contradictions between federal/state law and traditional Indian law will have to be given much attention during the trial. A political trial The nature of the trial and the involvement of Mr. Means in the tribal election have caused Mr. Robideaux to say. “The trial is political no question about ... it.” He added: “It is unfortunate that no dark-skinned people will be on the jury,” that the although he acknowledged presiding judge, “is better than any of the other judges in the area that I know of.” The prevailing mood of the defense is one of confidence. Mr. Robideaux pointed out that the defendants’ legal resources are far more extensive than those of the government. The Justice Department has only four attorneys assigned to the case. The trials are expected to focus public attention on the problems of the Indians. Several local Indian leaders have expressed hope that this knowledge of the injustices being committed against them will aid the Indian struggle for cultural identity. The only things that American Indians want is the rights guaranteed to all Americans by the Constitution of the United States, Mr. Robideaux explained. To illustrate his point and sum up his presentation, Mr. Robideaux characterized the goals of the Indian movement by quoting the closing line of the Pledge of Allegiance: “with Liberty and justice for all.. Friendship Committee updates workshops on Indochina news by Paul Krehbid Spectrum Staff Writer To learn more about the current fighting in Vietnam and to map out programs to help bring an end to the continuing war, the American-Vietnamese Friendship Committee of the Western New York Peace Center sponsored an Indochina conference workshop last Saturday. Gareth Porter of Cornell University provided detailed information concerning the current escalation of fighting in Indochina at the meeting at Amherst Unitarian Church. The Saigon regime has repeatedly and blatantly violated numerous provisions of last January’s Paris peace agreement, Mr. Porter explained. He reported that Saigon troops have taken territory held by the Provisional Revolutionary Government (PRG or Viet Cong) and have built new bases there. They have also built bases in contested areas such as the Mekong Delta, in direct violation of the peace agreement, he charged. With these acts, and attempts to provoke the PRG forces into fire-fights, Saigon was hoping to bait the PRG into attacking them, Mr. Porter claimed. Yet the PRG has a tremendous desire to respect the provisions of the agreement in order to avoid military confrontation, and shift the struggle to the political level, he explained. To bring this about, the PRG has been circulating the peace agreement to all those who live under its leadership and has continually pressed for preparations for elections, which are stipulated by the agreements. Media misleads public The American press is misleading the American people by not fully reporting the violations by the Saigon regime, Mr. Porter claimed. The press further distorts the situation by labelling PRG initiatives to gain back their territory “Viet Cong aggression,” Mr. Porter said. “I’ve been unable to find any pattern on the part of the PRG to expand their but Saigon has increased its territory by 5 to territory 10 percent,” he added. The conference then saw a slide show, produced by the American Friends Service Committee, a group operating medical clinics in South Vietnam. According to their slides and text, there were 76,000 casualities in the first six months after the signing of the January peace agreement. Many observers believe that these casualities ... are victims of the Saigon regime, since the Saigon troops are outshooting the PRG by 20 to 1. Millions of refugees are forced into crowded camps,” the American Staff of the Friends Service Committee in South Vietnam reported. They said they heard a loudspeaker in a camp shown in the slides announce: “Attention, citizens. If you attempt to go back to your ancestral homes in Communist areas, you will be shot to death.” The slides also showed political prisoners still being detained by the Thieu regime. Every family in South Vietnam must be photographed. They must also carry l.D. cards with pictures and fingerprints on it. The Friends Committee charged: “Saigon agents force people to join Thieu’s ‘Democracy Party,’ or their l.D. cards are taken.” Slides also depicted Saigon military men mistreating and abusing citizens. They went on to say that South Vietnamese police are now being trained in the United States. Thieu holds prisoners In contrast to the Thieu Regime is the PRG, which governs most of the countryside in South Vietnam, performing administrative functions such as building roads, schools, work places, and health clinics. At the conclusion of the slide presentation, the meeting broke into four workshops. The workshop on political prisoners heard from a representative of a Canadian peace group who recently returned from a visit to Vietnam. She said that the Thieu regime is holding some 200,000 prisoners, many in horrible conditions. After much discussion the workshop decided to build a campaign to free these prisoners by “adopting” them and then writing to them in prison. They plan to correspond with government officials of both South Vietnam and the US. to urge the release of the prisoners. The workshop on medical aid is going to operate a local fund-raising project in Buffalo to collect money to finance a field hospital in the FRG-controlled area of South Vietnam. Among supplies needed will be stethescopes, blood-pressure-cuffs, thermometers, scissors, bandages, tape, antibiotic ointment, a hemoglobinometer, glass slides, and other materials. $884 has already been raised toward a goal of $4600. The workshop on Congressional action is hoping to put enough pressure on Congress people to cut off all aid to South Vietnam, and will press for implementation of —O’Neill Gareth Porter the provisions of the peace agreement. They will be circulating a “peace pledge,” which will be presented to Congressmen seeking re-election. They seek the candidates’ support for the “peace pledge” as a part of each one’s re-election program. v The workshop on American Foreign Policy and the economic crisis is planning to do educational work showing how U5. war policy is linked to the growing economic crisis in America. One major point they will press for is the cut-off of oil shipments to the Saigon regime, which amounts to 22,000 barrels of oil a day. The American-Vietnamese Friendship Committee urges all concerned and interested people in Western New York to join in supporting these projects. They are located at 25 Calumet Place, Buffalo, N.Y.

The four-course load was adopted in 1968 to allow a student to give greater concentration to four subjects a term than to dilute his attention with five. It has been very successful: if a History major takes fewer courses and has more time freed from requirements to spend extra hours on his fascinating course in Psychology, then it is worth it he is learning. The four-course load finally recognized that contact hours do not equal learning, that more sophisticated criteria must be used. Of course, some flexibility is desirable courses with labs or those with exceptionally heavy outside reading or research loads might be worth more than four credits. But aside from extra credits for extraordinary work loads, the basic four-credit unit has proved a sound idea. The Administration cannot decide that Engineering courses are "worth" more credits than courses in Philosophy the student must decide which is more important to him. The final argument advanced against the four-course load is that it reduces faculty work loads and short-changes this University in the state budget. But there surely is a better way to equalize faculty work loads than by revising the credit system, and Albany's Budget Division reported that the four-credit system is totally irrelevant in computing SUNY budgets. Until some hard evidence is produced, the Administration's familiar tactic of invoking Albany to justify its policies just won't wash. Unless evidence more convincing than the useless yardstick of lower GRE scores is forthcoming, the Faculty-Senate, just as it did last May, should reject any departure from the present four-course load. But instead of new evidence, we have gotten a warmed-over version of Dr. Gelbaum's astonishingly narrow educational philosophy of "one credit for one hour." Such a rigid, authoritarian view of education is a definite insult to the intelligence of students and faculty on this campus. If learning is no more than the number of legislated "contact hours," this University is in deep trouble. — — just another adventure story. It is a story of man’s inhumanity to man, and one man’s yen to escape there horros.

It is more than nonsense it is educationally insulting to suggest that learning can only be measured by the number of hours a student sits in a classroom. In the last decade, the entire educational world has realized that independent research, projects, reading and experience are far more valuable than being force-fed knowledge in a sterile classroom with the notable exception, it seems, of Bernard Gelbaum. His computerized mind cannot conceive of learning taking place outside a classroom's four walls, and so to grant four credits for only three hours a week of is to him an listening to a faculty member spout wisdom unbalanced equation, a "devaluation." Dr. Gelbaum has thus proposed a return to the archaic system of a five-course load which would paternalistically grant students one credit for every one hour they sit in class. If we are to. take this giant step backward, teachers might as well take attendance, give mandatory homework assignments, put bars on the windows and label the grades 13 through 16, just like high school. For as every high school survivor knows, being forced to sit in a classroom yields a superficial regurgitation of facts at best, and complete boredom and alienation at worst. Most students came to this University to escape the high school mentality of knowledge-injection for a chance to be creative, to undertake independent study, to experience, to motivate themselves. Ordering them to take five courses a term would yield the same result as the mandating of five major subjects in high school: students whose main concern is short-cuts, evading requirements and "beating the system." High school teachers know compulsory attendance is not the same as compulsory learning. College students pay to go to school so they can explore their own interests, not so they can be ordered how many courses to take and how many hours they must sit in class. Learning cannot be mandated, even by a ten-course load. It can. however, be encouraged by skilled faculty who can stimulate their students' intellectual curiosity. But the educational simpletons who worship the 1:1 ratio would rather give more credits to a student who slept through five "contact hours" a week than to one who spent his semester working in the community or researching a problem on his .

T TOGETHER AT LAST! | ’ ■ - " Criticisms that the Biology Department has failed to offer a genuine opportunity for effective student input has prompted die revitalization of the Undergraduate Biology Association (U.B.A.). Last Thursday, S.A. President Jon Dandes called the first meeting of the hew U.B.A. to order. Mr. Dandes, himself a Biology major, termed the previous U.B.A. “non-existent.” Meetings were never held and the club officers could never be reached, said Mr. Dandes. In the past, the purpose of belonging to the U.B.A. was for “blank-filling purposes,” Mr. Dandes said, referring to the blanks found under the “extracurricular activities” portion of medical school applications. Up to now, students experiencing difficulties with the Biology Department had to confront the Department on an individual basis, often to no avail, said Mr. Dandes. Bio complaints In terms of student enrollment, biology is one of the largest departments on campus. Discontented students brought forth several reasons concerning the nature of the problems afflicting the department and its students. The students complained that ■ faculty members are more interested in research than in fulfilling their teaching responsibilities and that many faculty members expressed either through grading or their direct comments their contempt for the pre-professional student (pre-med, pre-dent, etc.). Also, the lack of variety and number of courses, the limited enrollment standards of popular courses, Seniors being closed out of courses required for graduation, were among the many criticisms voiced by biology students. Mr. Dandes told of resistance to the revitalization plans for the U.B.A. Several posters' and some 250 leaflets were put up announcing the meeting, according to Mr. Dandes. However, only a few of the students at the meeting had reported seeing them. To many, this lent credence to the rumor that the announcements were tom down maliciously. The meeting ended shortly after some students related their own problems with the Biology department. The students present agreed to discuss the meeting’s issues with other biology majors and bring them up at the next meeting, tomorrow at 7:30 pjn. in Norton Hall. your METR0C0L0R Wv mgm|J Starring James Caan, Peter Boyle BEAT THE and Salty Kellerman LEW°LONDON RETURNS ! performing a wide repertoire of traditional and popular music 9 p.m. 1st Floor Cafeteria Norton Union wTbTwblk ~ present NORTON HALL I "GOLD RUSH" Today J I Order your College Class Ring and receive a EDDIE KENDRICKS and special guest stars : THE PERSUASIONS 5% Discount! : Tickets$3.50 students $4.50 non-students and night of show Friday, Feb. 1st 8:30 p.m. Century Theatre Tickets on sale at: • U.B.

If this money could be freed, the Student Association would have more available to contribute.” Come September Plans drawn up for temporary recreational facility at Amherst schools were contacted and asked about the possibility of renting their facilities. However, explained Monkarsh, “because of the energy crisis and the fact that they were consolidating their own programs, they indicated that they had to take care of their own constituents first, so we decided that this plan would not be feasible.” by Dave Geringer Sports Editor Students at the Amherst campus will probably have a recreational facility, possibly as early as next September.

At the same time, the administration would put in some money from their rental budget. Then, the Student Association would have the money to rent this facility (rather than purchasing such a facility). If the state won’t pick up the rental fees, it would mean cither the administration or the students or both putting in more money,” Breisblatt added. Breisblatt revealed the probable design of the bubble. “It is made of hard, rubberized plastic,” stated Breisblatt. ‘There would be four basketball courts, an indoor track around the perimeter, a weight room, and locker facilities,” Breisblatt said. John Telfcr, head of the office of Facilities Planning, was reluctant to discuss the plans. “We’re working on that privately,” Telfer said. ‘We’re investigating the costs of providing such a facility.” i, sports shorts Buffalo right wing Mike Klym has been joined by two other Bulls in receiving mention from the ECAC for their play against St. Lawrence and Rochester Tech last week. Klym, who tallied three times against the Larries and once against the Tigers, was named to the ECAC weekly Division II all-star squad. Defenseman Mike Perry and left-wing Jack Kaminska received honorable mentions. —Wurl Bulls to host Alfred College in tonight’s swim competition by Steve Lustig Staff Writer Spectrum The swimming Bulls suffered their fourth defeat in five starts Saturday as they were downed by Rockport, 74-39 in Clark Hall. Brockport is also 1-4. Buffalo fell behind early, losing the 400 yard medley relay and 1000 yard freestyle events by slim margins. The medley relay team was leading until Pete Mathis of Brockport overtook the Bulls Dave Gaeth in the final 25 yards. Dan Winter was also nosed out by the Golden Eagles Mike Roser for second place in the 1000 yard freestyle. The Bulls top man against Brockport was sprinter Burt Zweigenhaft who returned to action after being out three weeks due to cancer of the tongue. Zweigenhaft captured first and second place finishes in the 200 and 100 yard freestyle events respectively. The Buffalo junior, who had not swam competitively in the three years prior to the current season, feels his layoff set him back. “I’m not in shape to go good times yet,”- said Zweigenhaft. “1 dropped from 155 pounds to 142 pounds because of the operation. 1 just have to get back up to my swimming weight to get my strength back,” added Zweigenhaft. ailment of the intestinal tract). Graduate student Jeff Springston, who was substituting for Brockport’s coach Greg Kinney, observed, “I thought it was a good meet. It’s nice to come in and go out a winner.” “Some of the races were awfully close. It could have gone either way,” Springston added. Buffalo coach Bill Sanford was encouraged by the continued improvement of the squad times: “I’m not disappointed that we didn’t win. I like to win just as much as the next guy but the score wasn’t indicative of how close the match was. We gave them (Brockport) a real run in the relays (losing by 2.1 and 1.5 seconds in the medley and freestyle events),” the Bull mentor noted. Each relay was worth seven points to the winner. Sanford also said that after Saturday’s match the Bulls had qualified many of their men for the Upper New York State Championships to be held March 1-2 at R.I.T. Among those who have qualified on the basis of their times in individual events are Zweigenhaft, Carl Gabaueri in the 200 yard individual medley, backstroker Bill Pericak, and divers Keil Wurl and Tim Leo. The Bulls face another tough assignment as they take on Alfred College tonight in Clark Hall at 7 p.m. Like many of Buffalo’s previous opponents, the ortty thing known about Alfred is their times in previous showings this year. Very often this is not indicative of a team’s strength because swimmers will not push for the best times if they are not necessary * Freshman Eldred Stephens’ fine individual performance paced the Bulls in a weekend indoor track meet at Pittsburgh. Stephens finished third in the 50-yard dash with a time of 5.5 seconds. The Buffalo freshman also finished fourth in the long jump and the triple jump. No team scores were kept at the meet. The Bulls resume their schedule Saturday at the Knights ofColumbus invitational in Cleveland. * BULL'S SPORTS RAP Coach Ed Wright of the hockey possibly some players will be there to talk with you. team & (Everyone is invited to attend Page ten The Spectrum Wednesday, 30 January, 1974 . . � * The Bull bowlers won their first match of the season, besting Erie Community College, 2668-2619 Saturday at Norton Lanes.

Jack came to work at Old Norton (now the building known as Harriman Library) on June 12, 195? as a janitor, after working for 23 years for the National Biscuit Company. jack has witnessed the transition and growth of this school from a small private college to a huge multi-college University. He has serviced every area of this busy student center and has supervised the maintenance staff in covering the cleanliness, room reservations, safety and security of Norton Union. The University, public and student population are rarely aware of the ramifications of a maintenance job. It cannot be dismissed as just so many floors to be washed and waxed, or so many bags of trash to be removed. Norton Hall’s maintenance men have mastered the art of working with people, and understand the many varied needs and problems of those who use Norton Hall. Jack’s hobbies are camping, fishing and wood-working. As we review the years of work of this employee, it is indeed a pleasure to look upon the occasion of his retirement. We sincerely wish Jack and Dorothy Herman much good luck and continued good health as they enjoy the rewards of many years of service. ��Community Action Corps Community Action Corps is an organization of student volunteers. The goals of the organization are twofold: 1. community service 2. independent practical education CAC operates on the premise that the university of effective utilization resources can contribute to the alleviation of .220 Norton Hall 831 3605 831 3609 of our social problems. The integration of theoretically based classroom learning and practical community experience is basic to the full development of a student's capabilities. Commitment by the volunteer worker of time and energy is similarly essential to the realization of these goals. CAC believes that the only way to institute real change within a community is to understand the complex connections between economic, political and social workings. CAC is therefore in a constant state of considering new facilities, services and contacts in the community, allowing us to further grasp the many obstacles that have to be faced in the struggle for change. The organization views itself to be an alive, on-going center for any and all resources, materials, people and ideas. Below are some commonly asked questions about CAC: 1. Can I receive academic credit? Through two bulletin board courses, CAC offers credit to project heads and resource assistants. CAC also maintains a listing of faculty members who are willing to sponsor students for independent many symptoms study. 2. How is CAC organized? CAC is structured into (1) projects, and (2) resource contacts. (1) Projects are ongoing, organized activities in which groups of students identify objectives and act strategically to effect their purposes. (2) Resource contacts are available placements in the community where a student worker can act on his own, and necessarily be a part of an organized group of people who are all working in the same service. Resource aides are always available to help people with problems or simply to hear feedback. Both of these options provide greater possibilities for work. 3. How much time is required for volunteer work? the Although exceptions to requirement can be found, the general time requirement is one semester and four hours per week. 4. Why should I volunteer through CAC? By maintaining the diversified program of community projects and resources, CAC attempts to provide an outlet for students to express their interests via community service. Often, we cannot predict every interest of every student. Consequently, CAC stresses that if a student's individual needs are not reflected by the projects and resources in the brochure, he/she should still contact CAC to volunteer; CAC has contacts or will find the contacts to provide that student with the opportunity to work in the community. Furthermore, since all of the CAC contacts in the community conduct ongoing, well organized, and planned activities, the likelihood of serious mistakes, failures and frustrations is reduced. CAC is geared towards the needs of its volunteers. The organization arranges transportation for students, either by using the CAC bus, arranging car pools, or reimbursing volunteers for transportation expenses. CAC supports the volunteers by coordinating orientation sessions and in-service training seminars; these are to provide some perspective on the nature of the problems in the community. The following are detailed descriptions of the seven program areas of CAC. For more information, or to volunteer, Community Action Corps can be contacted at Room 220 Norton Hall, SUNY at Buffalo, New York 14214; or call 831-3605, 3609 �Action Program If Community Action Corps is to be an effective community force, it must aim a substantial part of its energies towards the goals of awareness of the scope of situations we are dealing with, and of course, positive social change. The task of helping people, whether it is in terms of tutoring a child or caring for the aged, is valid. But, if it is seen as the only goal or the final goal, then CAC has failed even before it has begun. If we are satisfied with looking at surface problems and solving surface problems, we are merely satisfying ourselves, perpetuating a corrupt system, and using the unfortunate circumstances of others to build up our own public image. Action projects are concerned with current issues of the community. Often these issues are complicated in nature and long range in effects. It must be realized that an Action volunteer will not be able to “change the world" in a semester. However, through research, working in conjunction with community groups, internships, and self-initiated projects, students in the Action area seek to more clearly define issues, educate, gain experience in the field, and work towards the goal of affecting positive social skills will be especially helpful in working on this campus and with community groups to promote effective forces which can influence decisions and work towards the creation of a human, efficient, neighborhood conscious transit system. Although the hours needed to work on this project are flexible, it is hoped that volunteers will show commitment and initiative in working on this project. — change. Rapid transit proposal for a With the Buffalo-Amherst rapid transit corridor, many community concerns have come to the front. How will the proposed routes effect the community? Who will benefit by rapid transit? What will be the Students impact? environmental interested in the many facets of this issue are needed to do research work, monitor the decisions being made about rapid educate the student transit, and community as to the implications of mass transit. Volunteers with some organizing Environmental action committee For three years this committee has focused its attentions on ecological concerns of the University community. Glass, paper, and Christmas tree recycling successfully been projects have undertaken. This next semester efforts will be extended into the areas of energy consumption, bike paths, and rapid transit. We are also interested in starting new areas of concern generated by volunteers. The Environmental Action Committee needs students who are self-motivated and interested in doing research and undertaking projects. Time but flexible, are committments attendance at committee meetings is expected. The Environmental Action committee will take on increasing importance in the coming year due to the crucial point we are at with regard to our environment. Tot lots Tot lots are small play areas located in different parts of the city to provide small opportunities recreation for children. These play areas are in danger of being terminated by the city. The purpose of this CAC project is to research the current situation and to help create alternatives to the city's proposed course of action. Students wishing to work in this area will be expected to make community contacts, keep abreast of the situation, write articles, and hopefully plan innovative alternatives to the possibility that tot lots will be curtailed. As with the Rapid Transit project, the hours of work are flexible. CAC day camp The Day Camp committee hopes to realize its goal of establishing an economically and racially integrated day camp for Buffalo area children for the summer of 1974. Although the basic proposal has been prepared, student volunteers are still needed to help detect potential problems, secure funding for the camp, and plan final details. Especially those persons with camp of experience, knowledge grant foundations, and creative ideas for children are encouraged to join this committee. We welcome students faculty and staff. Revenue sharing This is a very new area for CAC involvement. Basically, one or two persons are needed to act as resource aides representing CAC on the Citizens' Commission on Revenue Sharing of Buffalo and Erie County. The concept of revenue sharing has designated that local governments and their people should best decide priorities of how federal funds should be spent. The priorities established by the Citizens Commission include housing, neighborhood services, day care, special education and services for the aging. However, for the 1972-73 fiscal year over $4 million went towards salaries for Buffalo police department personnel and over $5 million to Buffalo fire department personnel. CAC would like student volunteers to keep the University community informed of the issues surrounding revenue sharing and act as a representative in the larger CAC community. The hours are flexible, but �volunteers should be prepared to attend some evening meetings. Women's self help clinic One aspect of the Women's Movement is the establishment of self help clinics which are oriented towards the goal of enabling women to engage in preventative medicine and self examination, especially in the area of gynecology. This idea was conceived to help relieve the feeling of helplessness and submissiveness women feel when a health problem materializes. To be combatted is the myth that medical institutions must have the monopoly in health concerns and sought is a sense of autonomy and a feeling that the individual can activiely participate in self help maintenance. No such self help clinic' exists in Buffalo. In order to establish such a clinic, much preliminary research and work must be done. CAC does not pretend that it will establish such a clinic. with coalescing through Rather, pooling and community groups information and knowledge, perhaps this long range goal will be realized. Volunteers are needed to continue CAC research, make contact with extend and communitty groups, University to the information community. The amount of time to be devoted to this project is at the discretion of the volunteer. However, students are needed that are reliable and committed to this idea. HOME - Housing Opportunities Made Equal This community organization as the name implies works in the area of housing problems. Student volunteers would become a part of the organization assisting in its current work. Possible areas that students should consider working in are; gathering information on housing vacancies in the Buffalo area, to assist in survey work dealing with housing choices open to minority peoples, to act as a test case to determine discrimination. HOME'S activities are varied and changing. It is important that volunteers be committed to fair housing and be flexible in the types of work they do. HOME offers volunteers the opportunity to take an active and meaningful part in relieving some of the many housing related problems of Buffalo. CPAC Center - Community Planning Assistance 25 High Street, Buffalo this community The aims of organization are to foster community based planning and development by making available to community groups the professional expertise and technical assistance needed. CPAC is taking on 2—4 student interns requiring 10 —15 hours a week. Students wilt be taken on as full members of the CPAC team. Working with this advocacy planning group can prove to be a very satisfying learning experience especially for students of architecture, urban studies, sociology and related fields. Tasks will include field community work, research some organizing, and other tasks that may come up with new projects that CPAC undertakes. This project probably more than most Action projects requires aggressive, self-motivated students who can create for themselves a meaning role in the sometimes frustrating and long process of planning. Housihg Assistance Center 1490 Jefferson Ave., Buffalo This center, funded by local agencies, needs a few students' to work in internship positions. The Center provides counseling services to persons seeking housing in the Buffalo area, assists minority and elderly residents to find rental housing, and seeks to promote a more equitable distribution of available housing. Students are needed to answer incoming calls and do preliminary screening. Some student may be asked to do research on rental housing available, provide escort service to prospective renters or buyers, and if qualified, do counseling. There is great potential for learning in this project, an committment, more than a technical skill, is needed. �Day Care Program Projects KIDDIE KORAL learning in this project, and commitment, more than a technical skill, might play 1525 Millersport Highway games with the children, clean up a project completed by the kids, read a story or just generally help the children in Kiddie Koral, a relatively new day care located near the Amherst campus, is a creative learning program geared to the interest level and growth needs of children 1% to 5 years old. The center strives to promote sound physical, intellectual, social, and emotional growth of children during the early formative their various activities. In the two to four hours during which the volunteer will be working during the week, he will feel a sense of fulfillment at having done something that really requires doing and at the same time will get the satisfaction of being needed and years. appreciated. Volunteers are needed at anytime during the morning or afternoon and are encouraged to work at least 2 to 4 hours a week in order to become familiar with the unique environment of the center, staff members and children. Volunteers will take part in a brief orientation to the area of day care in general and of this particular program. Volunteers will work along with qualified staff members in helping to guide and instruct the children in their daily activities. A typical scheducle involves such activities as arts and crafts, music, language arts, math concepts and reading readiness. Through their work, volunteers will learn how to plan instructional programs for children at this age level, and will also gain a greater knowledge of pre-school children, their problems and abilities. There is no formal orientation, just a chance for involvement in the center. can relate. Also, any new and creative activities which you feel will provide enriching experiences for the children will be most welcome at the center.

WALLS MEMORIAL HEADSTART PROGRAM 455 Glenwood Ave., near — Jefferson This program provides a widely varied learning situation for pre-schoolers and equips them with concepts which will be useful and necessary to their later educational experiences. Volunteers are needed to provide additional staff to better allow a one to one contact of child to adult and thus enable each child to receive the individual attention he needs. Objectives can be as far reaching as the individual volunteer wouldlike since he is allowed to take on as much responsibility as he feels comfortable. The situation is flexible and therefore the commitments and attainments can be as flexible as working with an individual child to conducting the entire class in a given lesson or concept. As previously mentioned, the work of the volunteer may vary in each individual case. The center is constantly open to new ideas and suggestions from volunteers and does not simply want babysitters but people who expect to be actively involved in helping to increase the children's awareness. There is an expected committment of three hours or more during which the volunteer can expect a great deal of personal fulfillment. Unlike other centers where volunteers are merely aides. Walls offers the volunteer an opportunity to try out his own ideas and to really get involved with the children. There is no special approach or technique that must be used in interacting with the children the volunteer is given tremendous freedom of expression. The program may specifically appeal to students interested education, child eary child in development or any other related area but is not restricted to any class of students nor are there any special requirements. There will be no training, only a brief orientation meeting. — PROJECT CONTACTS CORNERHOUSE NURSERY Cayuga and Milton in Williamsville Contact Mrs. Drinnan.

Center The Erie County Rehabilitation Center also makes them ask, what is the "real" is there really any difference, that is difference between the man in city hall and the man at 291 Elm? - Night People Drop-In Center (Rehab Center) is a public shelter for the Drug Related Program Project 4590 Amherst Counseling Center 4590 Main Street Buffalo, N Y. 14214 Tel. no. 839-1600 Purpose of the project The purpose of this project is to train volunteers in the setting up of a drug education and preventive program for students. It is to acquaint and train them in the use of the "hot line" to answer questions and give assistance to people in need of help. Purpose of volunteers To carry out the goals and objectives of the project by providing information, personal counseling for youth, adults and families; emergency counseling to help handle "bad trips," violent or suicidal cases, and overdose cases; help the community to develop programs in alternatives to drug use, i.e. more art and/or drama individuals groups; referral services for and families who have problems, questions or concerns about homeless and/or alcoholic men. The clientele range in age between 20-70 years old with a range in personality as wide. From the skid row alcoholic to men who work regularly but have no other place to live. Although alcohol appears to be a major problem, it is not the only one. Also included is a number of "psyche cases" that were either discharged from the State Hospital or through time became one. The volunteer can look forward to a very diverse group of clientele. The CAC project is aimed at providing a non-alcoholic related social outlet for the clientele. Without the volunteers, the social outlets are few, mainly because of the Rehab Center being understaffed due to a poor budget. Though there are only male clientele, male and female volunteers are welcomed. They can help in recreation, which ranges from weekly bingo games to nitely ping pong. Also available will be the use of the gym facilities at the Buffalo State Hospital. This would then add basketball, swimming, bowling, etc. to the recreation program. There is an informal training period present at the center with reimbursements provided for transportation. The times the volunteer can come remains flexible. However, we're trying to get volunteers in time slots close together so we are able to work as a team, with group efforts and results. Since the volunteer program is accepted by the staff, volunteers are welcome to attend or start any activities that they feel might benefit the clientele. A word of caution. Volunteers must always keep in mind that they are limited to what they can accomplish in way of rehabilitation. Because of the somewhat “inadequate" facilities, volunteers must not enter the project with high expectations. The project's main outlet to rehabilitate will come mainly through recreation or whatever type of relationship the volunteer will build with the client. We urge the volunteers to build a "buddy system" with one or two of the clients, so in time of decision, they will have a great influence in the results. Hopefully, with this type of relation, they can be more effective at "rehabilitating" that particular client. Through this type of experience, the volunteer develops a better insight not only to the difference in people but it ... Director: Thomas Kreuder Address; 50 W. Chippewa St Phone: 855-0877 Hours; Wed.-Sun. 9pm-3am The Night People Drop-In Center is located on Chippewa Street in downtown Buffalo. Sponsored by the Area Council on Alcoholism, its main target population is the debilitated skid-row alcoholic. However, a variety of people with a broad of problems might be spectrum encountered on any given night. It's purpose is to provide a non-threatening accepting atmosphere conducive to socialization, recreation (in the form of cards, checkers, etc.), as well as individual and group counseling and referral services. Since there is a small staff (Director, Asst, director, and one part-time counselor) several volunteers are needed nightly in order to run an efficient and therapeutic program. Volunteers are encouraged to be creative and imaginative in the use of their talents. Tasks range from serving soup and distributing clothing, to counseling and assisting people in getting hospitalization where necessary. Hopefully, volunteers will grow in their understanding and sensitivity of human situations and problems, from many walks of life. Night People offers a unique and refreshing approach to a social problem daring the late night hours, a time when most agencies have closed their doors to the public. Volunteers are asked to commit themselves to at least part of one night per week on a regular basis. This provides a certain continuity for the volunteer as well as enabling the staff to depend on their support. An intensive 18 hour training program is offered to all volunteers, as well as on the job supervision. Transportation is helpful, but not absolutely necessary, as other arrangements can be made. Sunshine House Sunshine House deals with some of the more trying aspects of contemporary living. We attempt to help people who are having emotional problems, general problems in everyday life, drug related problems, and drug emergencies. In its birth Sunshine House was an acid rescue center. This was at a time �when hallucinogens were very prevalent in the community and people were having a hard time dealing with the emotional and medical aspects. As time passed we felt that in order to make our services more useful, we would have to expand and continually bend to the community's needs. Today Sunshine House deals with people on a one-time basis. We are here to help with emotional and drug problems that persons encounter in daily living. If it is felt that a person needs, or wants additional help, we make use of our extensive referral file. Most of our services are in the form of phone counseling. Persons who make use of our services will find a friendly helping hand at the other end of the phone. Sunshine House also offers out-reach service in the case of an emergency when the person cannot come to us. Situations such as drug overdose, bad acid trips, medical emergencies, and the like may fit into our out-reach realm. Sunshine House is located at 106 Winspear Ave. (one block east of Main St., near U.B.). The door is open for those who wish to speak to someone on a one-to-one basis in an informal atmosphere. All of our services are strictly confidential. is staffed by Sunshine House volunteers who experience an extensive training program. Training consists of informative lectures and small group interactions. Sensitivity is stressed. Once training, the formal completing volunteers do "on the job training" with an experienced member of the House. Upon becoming a member, persons are required to work a minimum of four hours per week. Persons who are interested in getting involved with people, and who care about others, may be interested in working at Sunshine House. If you have any questions, or just want to rap with someone about what we do, give us a call at 831-4046. Stay happy. Drug and Youth Counseling Resources Besides our listed projects in drug and youth counseling we have numerous contacts with over 20 other agencies in the Buffalo-Erie County area that can place volunteers in a wide variety of environments relating to counseling of youths who have family, legal or drug problems, the openings vary and are not always available so that if you are interested in finding out about these other opportunities, feel free to stop by the CAC office and make an appointment to see the coordinators of the Drug and Youth Counseling projects.

Frequent group trips aid in encouraging the development of such fuller relationships between tutor and child. Other volunteers try to reach out to the children by helping to lead interest groups. Activities such as arts and crafts, cooking and recreation are given every semester. Sometimes groups in photography, dramatics and dance are open to the children. The Center always has a long waiting list of children desiring a tutor. Many of them have to do without, since tutors are in short from the project. Due to the lact of mass transportation to the reservation we are in need of cars. Volunteers who use their cars for transportation to the reservation will be reimbursed for the gas.

For many of them, there is little room to be themselves; they are forced to accept the same goals and attitudes of the majority. A Mentation, lack of interest in school, and falling behind in work are the results of this situation. We at CAC are trying to alleviate this problem in offering academic tutoring to the young Seneca Indians of the Tonawanda Indian Reservation in Akron, New York. The Indians range in age from grade school through high school. After a day at school they come home to the reservation where many of them congregate at the Community House which is a central building under the supervision of Mrs. Ramona (Norma) Charles. The Community House is equipped with basketball courts, a library, and rooms upstairs for studying. This building is where the CAC volunteers interact with the kids. On a separate evening we conduct creative arts and crafts projects with the kids. For arts and crafts and/or tutoring, four hours, one evening a week is required.

CANTALICIAN CENTER FOR LEARNING 3233 Main Street, Buffalo, THE N.Y.14214 purposes and goals: The provide is to purpose rehabilitative, educational and utilitarian - General paramount instruction to the handicapped students so that they may become participating members of their community. Our goal is to help provide these mentally retarded children with a foundation and background of a variety of skills to use and build upon when they graduate. Objective of the volunteer: The to the volunteer is indispensible Cantalician Center for Learning because he can provide the extra rehabilitation and instruction for the child, augmenting that of the teacher. Perhaps the volunteer's individual encounters with the child or his personalized therapies will further increase and stabilize the child's knowledge. The volunteer can attain self-fulfillment and satisfaction within himself after he has worked with a mentally retarded child. It is an interpersonal “giving" process of established between the volunteer and the child. Volunteers are given a variety of opportunities in which to assist at the center. They can work within a classroom, with the class as a whole, or if they prefer, they may single out an individual child on a one-to-one basis. These activities range from learning to distinguish colors or tying a shoe. Those volunteers with specific interests such as speech therapy, occupational therapy, physical |herapy, art, dance, etc. are given an opportunity to do work in their intended field by planning and executing therapeutic methods of their own choice. The specialized therapies in the school include a language department, where the emphasis developing is on and remediating the speech and language of the motor perceptual children; a where development department a combination of physical and occupational skills are used; a creative arts class where dance therapy is utilized as a form of expression for the child; physical education; and specialized remedial reading, mathematical, socialization, and home economic skills are used for training purposes. This project is unique because its emphasis is not that of a public school. The emphasis is not academic but rather a total effort to train the child to perform to his fullest potential. This potential cannot be realized without the'assistance of volunteers. The volunteer is expected to work inimally at least one or two hours per week. Of course, he or she may work more than that if so desired. The school is open from 9am-2pm. CEREBRAL PALSY PROJECT - THE ELMER LUX HOSTEL The Cerebral Palsy Project is located at the facilities of the Western New York Cerebral Palsy Association at 100 Leroy Ave. Rehabilitation and educational here provide instituted programs opportunities for interaction between health care professionals, clients and volunteers alike. Volunteers can obtain useful experience in specific fields of rehabilitation, i.e. physical therapy, work in a classroom setting or in young adult recreational and tutorial programs. It is preferred that the volunteers donate 2 to 3 hours of time in one block per week at the minimum. Work in several areas does require training and reliability is a key factor in the maintenance of a cohesive program. Specifically, pre-K, nursery programs are day care and scheduled from 8:30-2:30, Monday through Friday while the young adult programs run Monday through Thursday from 10 to 4 o'clock. While most of the clients here manifest some physical handicap, even a student not directly interested in such therapy can derive many worthwhile experiences and opportunities to grow as a result of their volunteer work here. Teachers are' helpful and informative making the most "novice” of volunteers feel welcome and a necessary part of the activity. The Elmer Lux Hostel for the Developmentally Disabled is located at 119 Halbert Avenue across the street from the Leroy Ave. Cerebral Palsy Center. This Hostel is a "first of its kind" communal program dedicated to the de-institutionalization of rehabilitative programs. At present 14 clients live at the Hostel while taking part in evaluations and training programs nearby. Volunteers who can devote at least 4 hours at a time to working evenings and on weekends in this unique mutual-learning situation are welcome. MEYER MEMORIAL HOSPITAL 462 Grider Street, Buffalo, N.Y. Purposes and goals: The purpose is to provide teaching learning a and �experience for the student. Volunteers are utilized in all areas of hospital work. The student can learn about hospital work and at the same time help patients. Also, the staff at the hospital continue to have a growing respect for the student volunteers, which helps both the individual student and the entire university community. Objectives: The student, while learning and teaching, can satisfy his/her own needs to help others. Working in a hospital helps many Students to decide upon a vocation for themselves. Many people in the health professions acquired their desire for their profession through volunteer work in a hospital The student can hope to attain a feeling of self-respect and confidence in his/her ability to help others and help himself. (Hopefully, this experience will help the student decide upon his/her career.) As noted, the students are placed in all areas of hospital work. If the student expresses a desire to be placed in a particular area, most likely he/she will be. The number of hours the student works is dependent on where the student is placed. Three hours is about average. This hospital is different from many as it is a general hospital offering a variety of services. A student desiring any type of hospital experience will most likely be able to find it at Meyer. This type of work will mostly attract people with an interest in physical and psychological disfunctions, as well as lab work. The 13-A bus can be used which takes the student to the hospital. This can be picked up at Bailey and Hlghgate. Car pools can be arranged if the volunteers are willing. Other forms of transportation can be provided by CAC. PREGNANCY COUNSELING 343 Norton Hall, SUNV campus General purpose: The purpose is to offer counseling and information on all aspects of human sexuality. Volunteers need to give at least a minimum of three hours a week. The project appeals widely to people with interests in medicine, counseling, and women's rights. The following are required a commitment of at least three hours per week for at least a year; a rubella test (and vaccine if needed); and a training session (minimum 2days). — THE U.B. BIRTH CONTROL CLINIC 343 Norton Hall, SUNV campus The Birth Control Clinic was formed contraceptive to provide care and instruction for the members of the University community at a reduced cost to the patient. Volunteers provide all staff for the clinic and its instructional objective activities. The for the volunteeris to provide an education in methods of contraception and then to provide that contraception to fellow students in a professional clinic setting. As such, volunteers work in the office, making appointments and counseling patients, taking health histories and selling contraceptives. Volunteers also teach classes in contraception and venereal disease, distribute contraceptives and sterilize instruments. The clinic is in the process of organizing a library on contraceptive methods and venereal disease, and much opportunity is available for students with an interest in researching and collecting information on the subject. Volunteers may work generally as their schedules permit, from four hours a week to four hours a month, but due to the nature of the service we are rendering, it is important that volunteers be dependable in their jobs. The clinic should appeal to people who have a desire to help their fellows in a direct and relevant way. Students in the health sciences or schools of nursing, pharmacy and social welfare should be able to find particular meaning in their work as it relates to their major field of interest. Training is provided in specific areas within the clinic by experienced instructors who are themselves volunteers in the clinic. The U.B. Birth Control Clinic is completly separate from the University Health Services, with its own staff and records. The clinic was organized by students and is still an entirety student-directed business. Community Action Corps is our sole source of volunteers. If you're interested in the concept of students helping students, come in. We need you. VETERANS' ADMINISTRATION HOSPITAL 3495 Bailey Avenue across from main campus The volunteer work at the VA Hospital is divided into two programs general volunteer work and the student companion program. Limited positions are available for general volunteers in lab work and therapy work (i.e. OT, PT), as well as openings in escort service. — Student companions are assigned to a "neuropsychiatric patient" on either the psychiatric or alcoholic ward. The student visits his patient 2-3 hours/week at a time they decide upon (they are not restricted to the hospital visiting hours). Hopefully, through this one-to-one relationship, the student and patient will develop a meaningful relationship, which is mutually beneficial/ The Student Companion Program is unique in providing a weekly supervisory meeting. A small group of volunteers meet with a graduate student of clinical psychology to discuss their work, problems and progress, to answer questions, and to receive feedback on the program. This weekly meeting should increase the student's understanding of what it is like to be a psychiatric patient, of hospital services, and of hospital life. This experience volunteer should introduce students interested in health care to the hospital environment. The Student Companion Program appeals especially to students interested in mental health care and counseling services. Participation in an orientation meeting which acquaints the new volunteer with hospital rules and procedures is a prerequisite for volunteering in the VA. WEST SENECA STATE SCHOOL 1200 East West Road, West Seneca, N.Y. At the project in the children's ward at the West Seneca State School, we will bf working with boys and girls between the ages of four to seven. The purpose is a simple one, to offer the children an alternative to watching television, at least for the one night we can spend playing with them. We will be working in the area of recreation, doing different activities each week. The goal is to offer stimulating experiences for the children. Each week we will try to offer specific projects so that the activity can accomplish certain preset goals and be worthwhile to the children. Since we will be working at a state institution, the whole atmosphere will be different from that of private institutions. People who have not had the experience of working at a state hospital will find the whole structure of operations a learning experience in itself. Most of the wards have 25-30 children and 2 nurses at night. The ward we will be working in will consist mainly of mongoloid and mentally retarded children. Anyone interested in special education can gain a good insight into the effects of institutional living. The children are starving for love and attention, and just your physical presence will make them happy. Some of the children have specific psychological and neurological disorders. The nurses' job is mainly maintenance because of the child-adult ratio and we could help out by giving the children some of the attention they desperately need. One thing to stresses the commitment a volunteer is making'to the children once he/she joins this project. Many of the �children mark the beginning of the week by the day the volunteer comes. It is very sad to see a child disappointed because up. their friend didn't show Transportation will be provided and the project will be on either Wed. or Thurs. night from 6-8pm (we will leave Norton at 5:30). PROJECT RETURN Return is a citizen's to dedicated the rehabilitation and social reintegration of emotionally handicapped the to community living. The main goal of the volunteers involved in Project Return is to help and assist the individual bridge the gap and adjustment from the mental hospital to the community. Project organization THE SOCIAL CLUB MOVEMENT The social club allows the ex-patient to move around in an atmosphere of warmth and acceptance. Operation of social clubs for the former mental patient throughout the country has provided evidence that the acquisition of social and improved interpersonal skills relationships pay big dividends in the total rehabilitation of the mentally restored for it assures him a basic foundation on which his further rehabilitation depends. SELF HELP Self Help has no one location but its volunteers will find themselves working at different social functions. Its purpose and center involving goals around handicapped men and women in the community. It is an effort to help them leave their homes for recreation and meetings. There is a group of people who desperately to get together to organize activities and help for the handicapped in the Buffalo area. The the will accompany volunteers handicapped to these meetings and social functions in the hope that they will learn try more about how to deal with someone with a physical handicap. Volunteers must work a minimum of four hours a month. Self Help is the only project dealing with the handicapped living at home. It provides the service of getting them back into the community. SERVICES FOR THE MENTALLY OF ERIE COUNTY RETARDED (SMREC) 2960 Main Street The goal of this agency is to provide a "continuum of care" for the mentally retarded adult or young adult. Any person residing in Erie County, who is or may be mentally retarded, is eligible for service. "Continuum of care" is defined as the proper selection, coordination and use of all medical, educational and social services required by a retarded person to minimize the disability at every point during his life. Many services are opened to the normal individual yet it is the retarded individual, who usually needs life-long care, who is least able to obtain services. SMREC is geared to determine the needs and provide the necessary services. The object of the volunteer is to aid the caseworkers in SMREC by usually being involved personally with providing the services needed by individual clients. There are many different types of services which the volunteer may be called on to do. The volunteer may work in the areas of tutoring, mobility training, socialization, or babysitting. Tutoring a client usually involves helping him in such practical areas as reading newspapers, a menu, or teaching him how to read 'danger' signs.lt could also involve teaching him how to tell time, make a phone call, count money, or find what movies are locally playing. Mobility training usually involves teaching the client how to take a bus to a job or even shopping. The term socialization involves being a friend, by taking the client to movies or to dinner, etc.; in short, to be a personal friend and get the client to take an active part in society. Babysitting services involve being available to the family of a client so that he is not left Usually, alone. the volunteer is interviewed by a social worker in SMREC and then put on a case depending upon his, interests. He is then left on his own, or under the guidance of SMREC to perform the services needed. This agency is of special interest to those volunteers who want to carry out their own interests yet do not want a rigid structure under which to serve. This is a one-to-one service which the volunteer can develop and carry out under his own plan of interests. There is no training program as such given to the volunteer. However, the social workers at SMREC always interview each volunteer and take time to find a client which suits each volunteer. The social workers also take time to explain the case to the volunteer and give advice as to how to carry out the services needed by th client. The social worker then keeps in contact with both the volunteer and client to see how things are progressing. In general, SMREC enables the volunteer to give special individual help to the mentally retarded adult in the areas of interest to both the volunteer and the client. Legal and Welfare Rights Program CAC has contacted or has been contacted by various groups working in Buffalo in the area of legal and welfare rights. Descriptions of these programs are listed below. There are still many groups which haven't been reached, but the development of resource contacts is a continuing process. Once a group has been reached, one of their members is established as a contact person to facilitate communication between it and CAC. When a contact demands a more structured participation on the part of CAC or an internal program needs to be more clearly defined, a formal project is organized. Presently, there are two projects in the realm of the legal and welfare area; the ACLU and WRAP projects are explained below. To clarify the task of the legal and welfare coordination, the following outline is given: 1, To contact and to be contacted by community organizations utilizing staff member; 2. To determine if these organizations are related to the goals of CAC; 3. To publicize this information to non-paid university students; 4. To evaluate community contacts (what work is being done by the students and how the students feel about the work they are doing) and to collect feedback and suggestions for further community contact; 5. To provide training seminars where applicable and to develop a resource library which will contain information on what other cities and states are doing, periodicals such as Clearinghouse Review, Workforce, the Challenger and other useful books and journals. Suggestions and contributions are accepted. To accomplish these tasks, the internal work of Legal and Welfare will utilize people as resource aides for (1), (2), (3), �(5) and evaluators and program planners for (4). If you are interested please contact the CAC office at 3605 and ask for Gary. groups working in the area of legal and welfare rights. For more information on any of these programs contact Gary at the CAC office. Bridge is a community 1.

They place people at Family Court where they work as a link between people at the court who haven't found a legal resolution to their problem and wish to try counseling at the individual centers. Workers talk to the person and make an appointment at the center closest to the person's home. The individual centers also utilize lay staff people. The centers are open to anyone in the area who wishes to discuss personal matters- in a supportive setting. The centers are located in various parts of the city and are open one night a week each.

The volunteer will obtain insight into the needs of the elderly and hopefully will be motivated to take action toward improvement of the elderly's distressful conditions of existence. The experience will hopefully enlighten the volunteer to the fact that if something isn't done, they will have the same pitiful problems in their later years. The volunteer mostly deals with shut-ins and in addition to the idea of providing companionship, can run light errands. The volunteer is expected to work 2-3 hours a week or whatever arrangements they make with the person they are visiting. This is the only program in CAC that exists for the sole benefit of the elderly. Plans for training seminars are in progress and should begin this semester. Transportation is provided through CAC's reimbursement policy and when this project becomes involved with the Perry Project, transportation will be provided for the volunteers through Model Cities Agency's Jitney service.

Work is being done on establishing a girls or a co-ed league. — THE BE-A-FRIENO PROGRAM provides the opportunity to show attention and give companionship to a — child from a broken home. Be—a—friend sponsors sporting games and trips to events, theaters and local sights. On an individual basis, each friend encourages his or her child’s natural interests and tries to introduce new horizons and goals. Volunteers act in a big brother/big sister role. They give the children the benefit of a male or female influence in their lives. It can be truly harmful for a child to have his new "friend" quit after a short period of time. We therefore ask volunteers for a serious committment.

Dr. Ketter indicated. “Procedural irresponsibility to us is if the vice-president were to cancel 20 courses and the President and the Dean were to reinstate them,” said one College member. “The dominant things he has asked for in the courses not immediately reinstated are PEC approval and substantiation of the instructors’ credentials,” replied a College E spokesman. “Since December 3, we’ve met with the PEC six times, and each time we —continued on page 2 — �•W» ni " ■ ■' • V ■ -'i- one don’t I count?” Dr. Ebert said: subvert the students,” said participant. course no other “I’m convinced Dr. Ebert, Who attended the will be cancelled., unless there is last Faculty-Senate meeting as an zero enrollment.” observer, asserted: “I personally feel that everyone had an Subverting students A number of people expressed opportunity to speak.

For example, “the City University of New York last fall became the first major institution to put a numerical restraint on the proportion of full-time faculty members who may be granted tenure.” 9 New model Dr. Mettlin explained that UUP is “developing a new model of representation which we feel overcomes the problems noted above. We are adapting the traditional labor union model to a new form of employee representation designed to meet the unique situation of a by Renee Ryhnck Spectrum Staff Writer Collective bargaining and unions for faculty members are becoming more familiar on college campuses. In the last seven years, union membeiship among college professors, student counselors, librarians and other non-teaching professionals has increased from 3000 in 1966 to approximately 82,300 today. The faculties of 212 institutions arc now organized into some form of collective bargaining arrangement. No faculty has ever abandoned collective bargaining once it has had a taste of it. The passage of state laws granting collective bargaining rights to public employees must precede unionization on any state campus. The absence of such laws in many states accounts for most of the nation’s professors who have not unionized. In NewYork State, the Taylor Law governs state employee relations. Although strikes are illegal, collective bargaining is permitted to negotiate working conditions. university.” ' ■ ' The collegial model has not been abandoned. “We still work in an academic fashion with our colleagues,” Dr. Mettlin emphasized. Grievances of faculty members ate resolved through the process of peer review by a collegial panel, which later makes its report to the President of the University. Working conditions and salary matters are handled by the Office of Employee Relations (OER) in Albany,.but “we meet as a union with the OER to negotiate our contracts, file improper practices suits and contemplate job actions,” explained Dr. Mettlin. The labor union model is followed insofar as professional labor lawyers ate sent by the union to lobby in the State Legislature. Unlike labor unions, however, there is still provision for “discretionary money,” which the administration distributes as rewards for excellence. Dr. Mettlin pointed out that “Article 16 of the contract assures the University that we are not after parity.” Move to the fore Three years ago, faculty members at this University “came to the forefront of the emergence of collective bargaining on campuses,” according to Sociology professor Curtis Mettlin, Membership Chairman of the State University of Buffalo’s chapter of United University Professions (UUP). UUP is comprised of the merged affiliates of the American Federation of Teachers (AFT) and the National Education Association (NEA). UUP boasts 4100 members throughout the SUNY system, including 300 members from the State University of Buffalo. Three key areas of conflict have made many faculty members and administrators wary of unionization. Dr. Mettlin explained. “Some hold that universities and unions by thejr very nature ate incompatible,” he noted. “A university operates on -a collegial model, while a union is based on an adversary model with management and staff set against each other.” He added: “Universities are characterized by people engaged in individual effort, with varied interests; in a union, collective bargaining stems from common interests.” In a university, he continued, “people, get ahead on th£: oasis of meritorious assumption that performance; unions operate rewards are distributed to induce parity between people,” -•wavw- Dr.Mettlin said. />/-/// ,ij0 Possible destruction They may also fear the possible destruction of good and faculty administration, between relationships obsolescence of traditional forms of faculty governance such as senates, the introduction of rigidity into standardization of salaries. decision-making, and > _ Collective bargaining, unions gain popularity on campuses jr-m control of discrimination in personnel judgements. fl9( ... Successful efforts Dr. Mcttlin believes the union’s efforts so far have successful.” They are currently “reasonably negotiating the contract for the next three years, and are concluding the process of obtaining a 6% across-the-board raise from last year. been “Because of difficulties such as these,” said Dr. Mettlin, “the development of union organizations on campuses is controversial.” However, incentives for collective bargaining may outweigh the problems that some people anticipate. According to the Chronicle of Higher Education, collective bargaining is encouraged by the following considerations: —tightness of funds for University budgets and faculty salaries; .1 -leveling-off of enrollments; -poor job market for PhD’s; —shifting of power from local campuses to state-wide bureaucracies; -authoritarian policies of some college administrators; generally —professors are not “independent professionals with considerable decision-making power;” The main problem faced by the union at this point, said Dr. Mettlin, is membership. Because only a small proportion of faculty members belong to the union, “we appear to the state to be a weakened union with little bargaining power, and they take advantage of our newness.” He is hopeful that more people will see the benefit of belonging to the union: “We can only grow. It is not in their [the faculty’s] interest to withhold support from an organization which is negotiating on their behalf,” he said. of faculty unionization vary widely or university involved,” the Times reported. Public institutions as a whole are heavily unionized; however, unionization is correspondingly weak in private schools. “It is too soon to predict a trend,” wrote the Times “but the unions have long known that there is a big gap between a professor expressing interest in a union and actually voting for one.” What is predictable, though, is that “collective bargaining is a catalyst capable of altering the basic direction of higher education.” “The patterns with the type of college , Tenants Union to aid in obtaining student housing A Tenants Union designed to help students choose adequate housing and responsible landlords will begin operating this week.

Consequently, prospective tenants can determine whether there are any necessary repairs which their landlords neglected to mention. Additional information will cover such items as damage and security deposits, pets and whether the landlord is sympathetic, apathetic, or a “pain in the ass,” Mr. Palefsky explained. In addition to providing factual information based on reports from previous students, the Union will advise Tenants students to “stay away from certain landlords,” according to Mr. Palefsky. However, a blacklist will not be instituted. Model leases The Tenants Union will also convince to the attempt Off-Campus Housing Office to implement a policy whereby —Simon landlords who use the services of Off-Campus Housing will be compelled to utilize the Model Lease drawn up by the Legal Aid Clinic. Additionally, the Tenants Union the will pressure Off-Campus Housing Office to drop all sex and age preferences. Presently, landlords are permitted to specify male/female and graduate/ undergraduate preferences in their listings. SA will also sponsor a housing forum with attorney Rick Lippes to assist students with their housing problems. ‘The Tenants Union will make students aware of housing and landlord problems and exert pressure on the landlords to take care of houses. No longer will landlords get away with letting student houses go to shit,” said Mr. Palefsky.

The Council will vote tomorrow on whether to approve a legislative committee recommendation that the present zoning law be altered to permit construction of an IBM office complex, or to retain the current codes and thus preserve the mansions and the estates on which they are located. A legislative committee voted last Tuesday to recomment rezoning of the estates under provisions of a “Special Development Clause” adopted in 1950 and used pnly ten times since. If the Council ratifies the recommendation, IBM will be free to develop the land and construct its planned office building. The present owners of the mansions, the Children’s Aid Society and Catholic Archdiocese of Buffalo, have already indicated a willingness to sell the land to IBM for a sum believed to be close to $600,000. Rezoning an issue Efforts' to save the mansions have centered around the Friends of Delaware Avenue and a recently formed subsidiary, Save the Mansions, Inc. These organizations have battled the plans to tear down the mansions ever since the original proposal was made by IBM. Original efforts centered around an attempt to prevent rezpning and keep the mansions in the hands of their current owners. When this plan failed, an attempt was made to raise funds and buy the mansions through the Save the Mansions corporation. They are planning to solicit stock in their corporation to provide funds to purchase the land, maintain the mansions in their current state, and put them to historical or cultural use. Acreage in question Larry Battista, organizer of the group, has consistently said the attempt to rezone the property is illegal since the zoning codes specify that a plot must be at least ten acres to qualify for the “Special Development Clause.” The three njansions cover 4.6 acres. He is now attempting to have the Common Council delay any action until the spring, when his corporation will have had time to raise funds and make a bid for the property. A new angle was added to the problem two weeks ago when Building Science, Inc. delivered to the Landmark Society of the Niagara Frontier, a study suggesting that IBM construct its office building behind the three mansions. The study said the office and adjacent parking lots could be located on the site without threatening the mansions if the plans were altered. The Landmark Society will present the proposal to IBM before tomorrow’s Council meeting. The University’s Community Action Corps has joined the Friends of Delaware Avenue and various other concerned groups in urging residents to call their councilmen and register their sentiments on the mansion issue. In stock: endless frustration, long lines of Bookstore Long lines at the University Bookstore for unavailable texts have marked the beginning of every semester. Attempting to alleviate the problem of running out of books, some, instructors and departments have often sought out other bookstores. In the past two years, Buffalo Textbook on Main Street has picked up the book orders of 350 insfructors, according to store manager Bruce Brim. The English Department was the first to switch to Buffalo Xextiu.th* .spjf ingof 1V72.VJ’ job for them; after that, the numbers increased,” said Mr. Brim. “We try to follow up on orders and runouts,” he emphasized. The University Bookstore has initiated some reforms to grapple with this problem. The creation of departmental “liasons” is potentially a major step toward improved service. Each liaison is responsible for compiling the orders for its department and getting them in on time. This allows the Bookstore to deal with one representative instead of individual instructors. Realistic needs All orders are analyzed by the Bookstore to the realistic needs of courses. The variables involved in this process are the department’s p >t enrollments, projected enrollment, and the quantity of available used books. A safety margin of 10% is added to the final sum. determine Because instructors usually overestimate the number of books they will need, the Bookstore is inclined to order fewer books, but tacks on 10% to this figure as an insurance measure. This informa on is then sent back to the instructor for a last check via the appropriate liaison. “Service has improved 100% due to this liaison,” said Dolores Georger, assistant to the chairman of the Chemistry Department. EXCEPTIONAL OPPORTUNITY to work in a unique summer However, Bookstore Manager Tom Moore pointed out that all the departments have not created liaisons. In addition, different liaisons vary in their efficiency. While admitting the Bookstore still makes mistakes in its calculations and that some courses are easier to work with than others, Mr. Moore was generally satisfied with the new arrangement. In the event of a runout, the Bookstore attempts .to purchase additional books as quickly as possible. “We’ve tried Norton, Buffalo Text and Everyman’s Bookstore and we’re not satisfied,” said English Department Secretary Debbie Janik. “Our orders are always in way before time, yet we’re not notified in time if a book is out of print,” she added. “This is a big problem for the teacher and it really hurts the students.” Both Mr. Brim and Mr. Moore attributed part of the problem to the publishers. Occasionally, orders are either shipped slowly, misplaced or out of stock. Furthermore, publishers are sometimes negligent in informing bookstores about out-of-print or out-of-stock books. Meanwhile, the long lines and frustrated faces in the basement of the Bookstore continue. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ deepaway program for emotionally disturbed and mentally retarded children and adolescents.

The court will supply a lawyer when necessary Most cases don’t go to court, Mr. Effman noted. At Sattlcr’s department store in the Boulevard Mall, shoplifters are always prosecuted, a security staff member indicated. But Bob Mears from the Record Runner in the University Plaza was the most animated concerning this subject. Although there is little shoplifting at the Record Runner, Mr. Mears did not want to appear as if his establishment is easy prey for the prospective thief. “We we tackle them,” Mr. Mears exclaimed. jump on them Student shoplifting is on the rise again after a sharp drop last year, according to Norm Effman, attorney for the University’s Legal Aid Clinic, and local retail establishments are attempting to curtail it. Shoplifters steal about $35,000 to $40,000 worth of merchandise from the University Bookstore each year, reported Bookstore manager Tom Moore. To counteract this, the Bookstore is planning to implement a security system in the near future, Mr. Moore said. Many local stores utilize security systems that have met with limited success. In their attempts to limit loss, stores prosecute a very high percentage of the alleged shoplifters. P. Edison, head of Security at AM&A’s department store, estimated that 99% of accused pilferers are prosecuted. “It costs us too much money not to prosecute,” he explained. ... Stiff penalties When caught shoplifting at the University Bookstore, an offender must go on trial before the Student Judiciary. If apprehended in a retail business establishment off campus, the accused is arrested by the Buffalo police. Mr. Effman explained the subsequent legal procedures After arraignment for the charge of petty However, those found guilty of “petty larceny” may be sentenced to one year in jail, a $1000 fine, or both. The sentence can be reduced in a plea-bargaining process, where the charge becomes a “disorderly conduct” misdemeanor, similar to a parking ticket. Punishment for this charge can run up to 15 days in jail, $250 fine, or both. For a first offender, however, the punishment can be reduced even further even though he will have a mug-shot and fingerprints on police files. There have been reports of judges who are intent on “cracking down” on shoplifters, students or not, by handing out stiff jail sentences to convicted shoplifters. A judge in Tonawanda has publicly stated his intent to mete out the maximum sentence to anyone caught stealing in that town. Potential thieves take note: The message that security officers and owners of retail stores want to communicate is that they will prosecute shoplifters as often as possible. Tuition assistance New aid program designed to replace Incentive awards A major restructuring of the Regents Scholar Incentive program is likely to be passed next week by the New York State Legislature. Peter J. Assemblyman Costigan, Chairman of the Select Committee on Higher Education, will propose the new Tuition Assistance Program (TAP) in of maximizing access to higher education for all students. TAP would still recognize “scholastic excellence” as determined on the Regents Scholarship exam. Mr. Costigan hopes to foster and maintain a healthy equilibrium between aid to public and private school students. The program has the support of 23 Senators and 70 Assemblymen, including the Assmebly Speaker, Perry 6. Duryea. At its peak during the four year phase-in the program would offer program, substantial financial aid to a projected 81,000 students in private and parochial colleges and universities and 70,000 at public institutions. TAP is basically designed to replace the First Assembly Scholar Incentive awards with more aid to students, due to a more equitable determination of a family’s net taxable income. Students at the State University of New York may still receive awards up to full tuition, while those attending private institutions can receive up to $2000 per year. Mr. Costigan said a “by-product” of the plan would be a “stop to the outward migration of students to colleges and universities outside the state.” At present, Governor Malcolm Wilson has not made any comment regarding the Costigan proposal. However, because of the wide sponsorship of the legislation in both houses, it seems likely to pass. A spokesman for Governor Wilson said he had only allotted $35 million in next year’s for education-related budget state expenses. current Aids middle income families The program as now drafted will cost about $41 million in the first year, and meeting of the Semester $123 million in its final and sustaining years, Mr. Costigan explained. Although the cost appears high, Mr. Costigan said the benefit would accrue to greatest middle-income families who have been unable to qualify for assistance in the past. A family with a net income of $11,000, for example, would receive $1,280 for a child attending private school, while a family with a $15,000 net income would receive a maximum of $500. In a related action, the Nixon Administration has proposed a 200% increase in the Basic Opportunity Grants (BOG) program for the years 1975-76. The proposal came in a message with the theme of streamlining the numerous Federal aid-to-education packages. The message contained a note of conciliation, in sharp contrast to the two vetoes and late passage of education bills in recent years.

A ‘quiet comeback’ to quiet campuses by Guy Lewit Staff Writer Spectrum handing out slickly produced answering brochures and questions some pointed but few hostile from passing students,” the article said. “Cadets themselves report they encounter little antagonism from anti-war elements.” *A : nt OTTlltAnil;.",) — The firebomb attack on the Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) classrooms in the spring of 1970 marked the end of the Department of Defense program at this University. This event climaxed months of violence by SDS activists and students who were protesting U.S. involvement in the Cambodian war. As a result of these protests, new individuals were not allowed to enter the program. Those who were already participating in the program were their allowed to complete here or at commitment neighboring institutions. “As I recall, there were still some individuals participating in the program as late as May or June 1972, but they were the Executive Vice last,” said President Albert Somit. “After they left, the program was officially terminated. The faculty voted to end it then and avoid further possible violence,” he stated. Although there are no future plans to reinstate ROTC activities at the State University at Buffalo, the possibility of such an occurence exists. Across the nation, ROTC is experiencing a quiet but steady comeback. According to a Los Angeles Times article, enrollments have increased at Berkeley and several other institutions. — While the hostility may have abated, ROTC enrollments have still declined sharply, the article continued. In 1970, enrollment reached 155,946 and by last October had dropped to a little over 60,000. During that period, all but 20 of 161 schools with ROTC compulsory programs dropped them. The end of the draft eliminated another powerful ROTC attraction. — Pkge six The Spectrum Monday, 28 January 1974 .

At Stanford, Dartmouth and other institutions that dropped the program, efforts arc being made to reinstate it. Col. Carl F.

For the past five years the Collegiate System has allowed us, as students, the opportunity to take part in the shaping of our educational experience. With this opportunity came the responsibility to take seriously the work and conditions of the Colleges, both present and future. This meant that we suggested courses, and worked with faculty and interested persons from the community on developing them. We have taught and participated in arduous consultations to improve our skills in meeting the educational needs of students in our courses. In addition we devised continuously governance systems and evaluated and revised them to meet both the needs of our severely underbudgeted units and our needs for egalitarian participation. Our governance also had to cope with harassment by a hostile administration. It is because of these responsibilities that it is now necessary for us to speak out about the proposed changes in collegiate organization currently being debated in the Faculty Senate. Under the terms of the Collegiate Prospectus which expires this April, the Colleges have as developed small, decentralized egalitarian programs in contrast to the impersonality of this vast, hierarchially organized University. Equally important, the Colleges have maintained the spirit of educational experimentation so clearly absent in the bulk of the ‘University. The aim of our work has been to add additional dimensions to this University. We are concerned with developing alternative approaches to subject matter taught elsewhere in the University, responding to real social needs, ilnd addressing ourselves to socialproblems. Some of pur accomplishments hwdade. -cdmmunity oriented . law., and , health programs, work in free schools, interdisciplinary approaches to mathematical sciences and social sciences, explorations of the culture and history of women, etc. Due to the new and experimental nature of our system the Collegiate Prospectus mandated that a review of the Collegiate System take place this year. The results of the review were to be considered when the prospectus was examined to see what changes might be necessary for the continued development of the Colleges. The first stage of the review was held last spring when each College was examined by teams of three UB faculty members. The from these committees were reports overwhelmingly favorable. The second stage was held this fall by five educators of national prominence. These educators sat in on courses and talked to students, faculty and administrators. The report saw the Colleges as a valuable and necessary part of the University. It stressed that experimentation involved taking risks and that innovative programs should not be crippled by fear of failure. While stating that a new college system should be chartered, it emphasized the necessity of significant input from the existing units to provide continuity. The Reichart Committee seems to have ignored virtually all the favorable aspects of these reviews when drawing up the Majority Report. There are seven major problems in the report as we see it. If the Reichart report is passed most of the existing programs would be eliminated or greatly transformed. I. Chartering As it is currently amended, the chartering committee will consist of 6 faculty members, 2 members of the college council (or Collegiate Assembly until the College Council becomes functional), 2 undergraduates chosen by SA, one graduate student chosen by GSA and a member of the Academic Affairs Council (AAC). These will all be voting members with 2 year terms. In addition, 3 Vice Presidents, the Dean of Undergraduate Studies, the Dean of the Colleges and the of the Faculty Chairman Senate Committee on the Colleges (FSCC) are included as non-voting members. We object to this composition on the following grounds: A) While the Majority Report mentions in its rationale that it expects the faculty on the committee would not be chosen from those hostile to the colleges there is no written assurance of this. We feel that it is important that the Prospectus be amended to say the members of the committee be mutually agreeable to the Faculty Senate Committee on the Colleges and the Collegiate System. B) Though Prof. Hyman’s amendment to allow 2 members of the Collegiate Assembly to take part in the initial chartering' procedute was friendly to the Colleges it does not go far enough. The Extramural Review Team recommends that 4 members of the present system be on the chartering committee. We feel that this representation or a larger number take into account the experience and acquired wisdom of experimental education possessed by those currently working in the colleges. This should not be seen as a bid for control of the committee but rather as one for continuity between the current system and the proposed one, one that gives us a significant role in the shaping of our future. C) The presence of the Academic, Health Science and Student Affairs Vice Presidents and that of the Dean of Undergraduate Studies is a severe detriment to the Committee. These administrators, by virture of the offices that they fill must uphold conventional criteria of Academic acceptability. As the Extramural Reyiew points out it is a contradiction of the purpose and idea of experimental education to use these standards in judging the Colleges. This should not be taken as an attack on the men who fill these offices, but rather as a realistic evaluation of the pressures initiated by their jobs. II. Faculty Participation The Majority Report requires that the charter of each proposed College include a list of initial faculty and their vitas; a statement of how other faculty will be chosen, and evidence that there will be substantial faculty participation. Additionally, it states that a College can be dissolved because of loss, “without adequate replacement” of key faculty or of the Master or Administrative officer. We object to this section on the following grounds: A) By the Colleges to explicitly define Faculty participation and responsibility, a hierarchy is imposed on the units. The Colleges’ mode of egalitarian organization is severely threatened. Our strength has been the equal participation of faculty, students and community people. By singling out and making primary one segment of the College, the formerly beneficial interaction between faculty and students will be forced into hierarchial modes of interaction. In addition, we fear that potentially beneficial disagreements with faculty will end if their participation is essential to the survival of the unit. B) The Report does not guarantee the Colleges the right to hire full-time faculty. Thus, dependence on faculty participation indirectly at best makes the Colleges dependent on the good will and support of the various departments and at worst makes servants of Colleges the departments. The Majority Report solicits departmental but cannot support, guarantee if. The Prospectus can guarantee the Colleges the right to hire their own fatuity and we wish to see this made explicit in the document. C) The document does not recognize collegiate faculty and minimizes the value and importance of such people. We feel that it is time the University community recognize the valuable contribution of collegiate faculty and defined both departmental and collegiate faculty as important, each in their own right. III. Master An essential theme of the Majority Report is that each college shall have a master. The hierarchy that results from this is detrimental to the spirits of cooperative which allows full government for participation of students, departmental faculty, collegiate faculty and community persons. By institutionalizing the position of Master, by emphasizing that she should be a full-time faculty member and by indicating her salary, the report makes it if not impossible to develop another form. Colleges might as well be departments in this system. We believe that it is not necessary for one person to assume the responsibilities laid out in the Majority Report, that it can be done, perhaps more very difficult effectively, by a committee, group or any other structure that an individual college may propose, as long as one person is responsible for communicating with the Dean. IV. Experimental Courses Presently Collegiate under the Prospectus, experimental may be offered by the colleges on a one-semester pending Assembly Collegiate basis, approval. There is no provision for experimental courses under the Majority Report; all courses will have to go to the courses Curriculum Committee of the Division of Undergraduate Studies for approval before they can be offered by a college. Maintenance of an experimental format is critical for our existence because it provides for short-term commitments for all concerned in dealing with interesting but untried ideas. Experimental courses provide for a growing edge to curriculum as a sound basis of experience. The semester limit before review is a minimum risk for an educational structure presumably devoted to innovation and experimentation. V. Workshops The concept of workshops to test proposals for possible colleges is one of the only progressive aspects of the Majority Report. However, it is hampered by an unrealistic appraisal of conditions and lack pf faith in the colleges. The report calls for the workshops to offer courses on a non-credit basis. It does not take an exceptionally perceptive individual to recognize that any non-credit course added on top of the 16 or 20 hours a student already carries will have to be watered down in terms of workload. And to be realistic, it must be admitted that most students would be forced to make such courses a low priority, and that credit adds validity and reward to a course. In addition, in a period of financial austerity, it seems ironic that tax money and student tuition will be used to finance courses carrying no credit. We recommend that the workshops be allowed to offer courses on an experimental credit-bearing basis. VI. Funding Continually the one constant in the life of the Colleges has been a severe lack of funds. Much of the “inefficiency and irresponsibility,” a permanent fixture in the negative stereotype or the present Collegiate System, could have been avoided through adequate funding commensurate with the amount of work done.

Page seven �'I com S(Jr Wee lUniAL mu Innovation gets cancelled next The casual course-bouncing by Academic Affairs vice-president Bernard Gelbaum has largely been reversed; all the cancelled College E courses have either been reinstated or given a chance to comply with regulations and be restored. This time students cannot fault the actions of President Robert Ketter, who quickly intervened, gave all the cancelled courses a chance for reinstatement, and delivered the message personally to students and Collegians in the Fillmore Room. He and DUS Dean Charles Ebert thus endured some verbal abuse for Dr. Gelbaum's error, in which they had no part; their attempt to correct the situation in person provided a sharp contrast to Dr. Gelbaum's memo writing. Student Association also played an instrumental role in reversing the cancellations, and SA President Jon Dandes has displayed some long-awaited academic leadership by calling for Dr. Gelbaum's dismissal as well as total restoration of the cancelled courses. While Dr. Ketter has not yet reacted to the criticisms of Dr. Gelbaum, for whose actions he has often had to take the blame, some insiders say his granting the three University deans broarded responsibilies is designed not only to decentralize decision-making and facilitate direct communication, but to give the deans a greater role in academic programs and confine Dr. Gelbaum to budgetary matters, where he may communicate with facts and figures better than he has with students. No one should make the mistake of viewing the incident as a partisan battle between students and the Academic Affairs vice-president, however. Many administrators were privately furious at Dr. Gelbaum's unilateral action, and his one-man rule of past years has alienated most of the faculty as well. We feel that if faculty members were also to express their dissatisfaction with Dr. Geibaum, Dr. Ketter would be under pressure from every segment of the academic community to rectify the situation. We urge them to speak up, not out of vindictiveness against Dr. GelbaurW, who coiild surely serve the University in some other capacity, but to Halt M, irtost achieve some tiomrfiuhldatibrV importantly, to insure that the Collages will survive.'

(As a side issue I keep trying to figure out how to respond to such a situation jin terms of what punishment fits the crime."Clearly it is illegal to take such drastic measures as physically damaging the car, and I suspect it is of dubious morality too. Is there such a thing as a citizen’s citation for parking violation? How would they handle it on Kung Fu?) Wherein lies the built-in difficulty. My perception is that anybody who is going to keep coming back to this confusion is going to have at least some rudimentary grasp on what I am muttering about. (Unless they are searching for examples for a mental deviance textbook.) I make an assumption about people which is hard to justify, particularly in the light of reality. Namely that people tend not to do to other people what they do not like having done to them. In the current example, if you have had to drive around looking for a parking space for a long, long time muttering and cursing at the people using up more than one space, then you will tendyVOT’ to use up more than one space. Should you ever see more than one open at a time, that is. Perhaps that is why I tend to watch Kung-Fu on the odd Thursday night that I have free. It is basically an optimistic show, one which begins with a premise that at least some people are basically decent and can be reasoned with. And it is done well enough so that 1 can suspend belief and flow with it for a while. There are, in reality, or at least current 1 z-vzr reality, things which provide me with great doubt There is a built-in difficulty, at least in my head, with the kind of communication that 1 try to reach for here when I am moderately together-leave us kindly leave last week out of this discussion. To wit and namely, if you are reading this you are doing so voluntarily. Which is already some sort of comment on where your head is. The specific point around which all this revolves is the old parking hassle. Here we are back to Administration control over the Colleges. Dr. Gelbaum's action exposed the naivete of relying on administrative "good faith," as supporters of the Reichert Prospectus are urging. In its headlong rush to achieve "legitimacy," the Reichert Prospectus goes much too far in relegating the Colleges to stifling Administrative control. The Senate must find the fine line between safeguards to insure academic integrity for the Colleges, and a degree of autonomy which will permit experimentation, non-traditional and alternative approaches, and input from professional community people who may not necessarily have a string of degrees. Although it is being passed off as bureaucratic confusion, the way in which the 16 College E courses were cancelled is an ironic commentary on who desk-bound administrators view as qualified to teach in the Colleges: They went down the list and cancelled the course of every instructor who didn't have a B.A. No thought for qualifications, expertise, just whether or not the instructor had a degree. experience The next logical outgrowth of this obsession with credentials is that no one without a PhD will be allowed to teach College courses all in the interests of "legitimacy," of course. In the vast University bureaucracy of computerized Chemistry and Engineering departments and standardized requirements, the Colleges have provided students with a chance to experience education, participate in their own curriculum, explore alternative views and approaches to life, whether in yoga, photography, parapsychology, media, radical politics or community involvement. But the Faculty-Senate's conservatism, whether due to the tight Management economy and lack of teaching jobs or mere conventionalism, threatens to put an end to the Collegiate experimentation To the Editor. which has stimulated so many students. Unfortunately, Fac-Sen committee undergraduate Bob Kole has a naive, officers of the the We, newly-elected superficial view of the situation and has blindly endorsed the Undergraduate Management Association, would like Reichert Prospectus. He is not, however, in any way to take this opportunity to welcome and encourage a representative of the undergraduates on this campus. Now strong rapport between the members of the faculty that everyone realizes most of the Colleges may not survive and ourselves. We feel that our job is to close the gap that beyond 1974, students must show up in great numbers at presently exists between students and faculty. One tomorrow's Faculty-Senate meeting (2:30, Diefendorf 148) of the means we intend to employ is to make to refute Mr. Kole and demonstrate their support for the ourselves available to any faculty or student member at any time. We hope you will feel at ease to consult Colleges before they are castrated. — wma& , 1 against Richard Nixon, of the Washington Follies? There is in fact a slight power imbalance here.

OI POfJT 5 rTS)sr r \ MORAL cmce. Missing the point? To the Editor. Everyone is asking why College E does not expose the grudging and self-seeking support ofKetter and Dandes. Tell (teach) me why did Gelbaum cancel 20 university courses. Why is it that and how can Ebert can and did reinstate them? Is this a way to get Baumer in as head of Academics? Is the vice-president position being phased-out for the University-Wide (and proposed Collegiate) Dean positions? Why can’t the Colleges lobby and convince the Faculty Senators on the legalistic points in the Reichert document? Why are the formal procedures of the Faculty-Senate favoring' 90 Faculty friends, and controlled by the Chair? What will happen when George Hochfield the Colleges’ arch-antagonist,-r takes over this chair? Why don’t the Colleges refute the four front-page articles in the Buffalo Courier-Express, defaming and libelling them? “You know that something's happening, but you don’t know what it is, do you Mr. - - - Jones?" That was Dylan’s answer. The above is all a comment on the system, and American corporate in general. If tJhe,CpUegps lapk faculty, legitimacy, and power, it is npt due to procedural irresponsibility. , Bureaucratic control guarantees that power, is in the hands, of the few, with the gteatest Collogasharea diffeaent.process salary, position, and credentials than that of bureaucracy and provide an alternative to that, and this is precisely why they arc attacked. Alternatives arc only possible in an that is, one out pf control, pf one singular force or open system structure. When Joe Ritz of the Courier-Express says “a balanced viewpoint,” he means one controlled by his values. The values provided for by the Colleges range across the spectrum, but the process is clear. It is predicated on the necessary ingredient of commitment and participation. You and the Colleges will only go in the direction in which you choose. If you forego the opportunity for self-determination, the choice will be made for you in terms of the values of those with power, and you will be told what to do. If you are not contributing to courses like those that have been cancelled, and if you have those who oppose these courses make the decisions of approval and cancellation; and if you don’t believe in the Colleges, their then don’t bother going to the Faculty-Senate courses, or choice meeting Tuesday, 2:30 in Diefendorf 148. That is where the decisions will be made, and where you could be heard. Everyone seems so preoccupied with reacting to the bureaucracy that they do not have the energy to cooperate in creating alternatives. - „ - In explaining the original exclusion of Collegiate Assembly representatives from the faculty-dominated chartering committee, (which must approve all the current Colleges), Colleges Committee Chairman Jonathan Reichert claimed that allowing these delegates a vote toward their own survival would be a conflict of interest. Their “defensiveness,” he asserted, would seriously undermine objective discussions. Having a predominantly faculty chartering committee “is better politically for the legitimacy of the Colleges at this point in their history,” said Dr. Reichert. To say the Colleges will reap political benefit not being represented in a decision which may by destroy them is like saying Mr. Nixon’s chances of remaining in office would be bolstered if his supporters in Congress were prohibited from voting against impeachment and if he were denied a defense lawyer. While the quest for objectivity and worthwhile, the Reichert is legitimacy Committee’s battle against conflict of interest and “defensiveness” is being waged only on the Collegiate front. For its goal to be fully achieved, many faculty would have to be similarly excluded from the Chartering Committee due to and their own conflict of interest “offensiveness.” While some faculty sincerely believe the Colleges will be given a new breath of life through the Reichert prospectus, there are many who have never regarded them as anything but a swiftly-spreading cancer, which unchecked, would destroy everything in its path namely traditional education. To an esteemed, tenured professor like George Hochficld, it must seem unh«y^l4e4. r ntpid-boggiing ,|hat an uncredentialed instructor may be capable of imparting' his peculiar brand of expertise to a handful of students who are searching for conventional, other than something condescending wisdoms from a Phi Bctta Kappa PhD Instead of attributing the overflowing enrollment in College courses to their relevance — s and creativity, a better measure of legitimacy, many faculty and administrators still adhere to the archaic notion that departmental offerings constitute what’s best for students. Let us assume, on a more optimistic note, that most of our more distinguished men of letters are not so far removed from present realities. Why, then, has a majority of the Faculty-Senate appointed itself the savior of “high-quality education?” ‘The easier it is* to establish a College,” stated the report of the External Evaluation Team, “the more evaluation and scrutiny will be necessary to sustain it. The harder it is to establish, the more autonomy it will enjoy once established.” The faculty arc insisting on legitimacy; the question is whose legitimacy? The notion that an instructor with few credentials may be as qualified as one with a string of degrees is not easily digested by some Faculty members. Once a respected, tenured professor realizes his long years in school may have been a bureaucratic longcut (except where salary is concerned), he may resent it when individuals who have taken an unconventional path namely College instructors attract more students than they do. Insult is added to injury when departmental faculty discover that students are finding more meaning in a course like College E Pop Radio at the expense of one of their own courses. Shunned by both students and the system and doubting their own legitimacy, the University’s faculty had no choice but to clamor for Collegiate legitimacy. They expounded the notion that given two alternatives, the student will choose the “easier” one, as if by their very nature College courses are in the minor leagues in comparison to big-time “regular” courses. They have attacked the legitimacy of the Collegiate System in defense of their own legitimacy, yet have insisted on tossing around accusations like '‘conflict of interest” and “defensiveness.” Many students have assumed the Collegiate deal}, itji (JeatJi blow at last Tuesday V System, Faculty-Senate meeting, toothing could be further from the truth.

The Spectrum Student Periodical, Inc. Republication of any matter herein without the express consent of the Editor-in-Chief is strictly forbidden. (c) Editorial policy is determined by the Editor-in-Chief To the Editor. I have just finished reading your review of the Bob Dylan concert in Toronto and subsequent . - . Managing Editor . Editor-in-Chief . Vol. 24, No. Emerging from Dylans shadow commentary on Dylan’s present role in music (if there really is any “role”). After reading numerous reviews of the concerts given so far, I must compliment you on the overall scope of your article; the musical performance. I was lucky enough to be at the second Toronto concert, but beforehand 1 wanted to read an account of the preceding shows. I was getting sick reading “reviews” (as well as the recent reviews of the Toronto concerts) that concentrated on the clothes in which the audience was dressed, whether they were clapping too hard or not hard enough and hence might scare Dylan off the stage, whether this poet, the was Dylan the folksinger, or rock hero, the messiah, the revolutionary, the Zionist, etc., etc. (And they wonder why he lives in seclusion and won’t grant interviews.) GoddamnitM, it was just Bob Dylan and the Band playing great music for 2 '/i hours. Why can’t they just stop branding the guy? In addition, I was pleased to see that you did not leave the Band to lag in Dylan’s shadow. I hate to be picky, but since you were trying to give credit where credit is due, I feel I should correct some errors you made. Firstly, it is Levon Helm who is the “simply phenomenal drummer” you refer to and Rick Danko is the bass player. It is Danko who rings the lead to “Stage Fright” and Helm on lead vocals in “The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down.” The Band does not use a pedal steel guitar; it is an electric piano that Manuel plays on “King Harvest” and “The Shape I’m In.” In “Rag Mama Rag,” it is Garth Hudson on piano with Manuel on drums. It is Garth again on piano in “The Weight,” and Manuel on organ. Levon Helm sings the first three verses, Danko the next to last, while they all harmonize (except Garth) for the final verse. Incidentally, “My Love She Speaks Softly” is actually Love Minus Zero No Limit from Bringing It All Back Home. Don’t get me wrong, aside from the personnel errors, 1 think the article was quite good. It’s just that I’ve been into these guys for a long time and would like to see them get due recognition. They’ve been overlooked for too long; and Dylan perhaps, over-inspected. Monday, 28 January Harold Meyrowitz 1974 . The Spectrum Page . nine �CAMPUS UNREST These problems are the refusal of many delegates to do their homework and the refusal of members to let common sense interfere with their self-interest and paranoia. Any Assembly watcher knows that attendance falls off sharply once Certain annual budgetary squabbles ‘(athletics, BSU, etc.) have been patched together for another year. Of course no one expects that any interest all human group will suffer for the common good history shows that this won’t happen. Any exceptions anyone raises are simply proof of this: if these were not exceptional, who would remember them? But it might be worth the expenditure of paper and ink to rail against those who, out of fear or self-interest, fail even to understand what is happening on the floor in front of them. (Before anyone yells at me, let me point out that these criticisms are not personal.) It was a strong commitment to the future of the Colleges and some very real fears for them that made a normally sensible and intelligent person like Elizabeth Kennedy temporarily incapable of understanding the English language. While the usual run of turgid academic-bureaucratic prose is a challenge to the understanding, the point in question was clear enough. That point was the chartering procedure for Colleges under the proposed Prospectus. It was entirely clear to anyone not blinded by fears and self-interest that existing Colleges could be chartered almost immediately. — by Clem Cohicci This is the last part of the series that asks the question: Why don’t the Faculty-Senate and Student Assembly work and why isn’t anyone likely to do anything about it? If what is essentially a willingness' of the Faculty-Senate and the Student Assembly to engage in the political process might solve some of the problems facing those bodies, other problems look nearly beyond solution. If Senators .and Assemblymen realize that it is more important to pass good legislation than to pass it Tuesday, a substantial ftnprovementent may result. I say may result because both bodies are also beset by problems that no procedural changes or institutional tinkering can solve. They are problems of human nature which, as any student of human nature knows, are from everlasting to everlasting. Colleges statement. so request.” Yet, this year College funding has been cut approximately 20% from a funding base line that the Colleges considered a starvation level. How could the existing Colleges improve and prepare themselves for new chartering while they are already facing a severe financial crisis? The Majority Report asks for “additional funds so as to enable more faculty to become involved in the Colleges in the Interim Period.” There is no provision for adequate funds to strengthen student and ... before community participation applications for rechartering. The Colleges propose that the Faculty-Senate endorse unrestricted increased existing funds for the order to prepare colleges in themselves in the way that they consider most valuable for rechartering. VII. Dissolution We feel that this is also a major issue but due to lack of space, we are unable to discuss it at this point. Conclusion At the Faculty-Senate meeting last Tuesday, at least three times Jonathan Reichert before it was clear. ParenQpRgUy, I should note Dr. Reichert’s inability to adjust to tnl manners and protocol of the new age. He drove Dr Kennedy to distraction by calling her “Elizabeth” when everyone else (mostly male) got the professional courtesy of being called “Dr. So-and-so.” His attempt to recoup was little better as he called her “Miss Kennedy.” No purpose is served by ignoring simple courtesy in public debate. The final problem is more severe in the Student Assembly than in the Faculty-Senate. By and large the Senators, being professional educators used to preparing for lectures, know what the rules of the game are and what the proposals before them are about. But the Student Assembly is another story. People often have no idea that there are such things as fee guidelines. Board of Trustees regulations and New York State Laws. Many times Assembly members proposed legislation that was blatantly in violation of all of these things. Also, people make detailed proposals, especially at budget time, with no idea of the needs of the organizations and the resources of the Student Association. But problems like these are beyond the power of mere human beings to solve. They cannot be legislated away, nor can they be circumvented by institutional reform. As always, it all depends on the people in office, an old thought, but one that is none the less true. —continued from page 7— .. devoted to a debate on the Majority Report, we, the Colleges, were in a powerless position to make our voices and explain the points briefly mentioned above. According to Senate make Senators can only by-laws, amendments on the floor, and of course, discussion cannot proceed without that initial step. This procedure had been explained to us; however, the timing of the Senate meeting made it difficult for us to talk fully with Senators before it. Due to the interim break, we had less than a week for preparation. In this short time, it was heard virtually impossible to analyze the Majority Report, prepare our Minority document of amendments, plus get in and touch with Senators and inform them of the and mechanics of the spirit amendments so that they could propose and discuss them knowledgeably. On the Senate floor we heard a lot about the spirit of good faith that supposedly infuses the Majority Report, the spirit could not overcome this technical obstacle to full debate. The chair overruled legitimate proposals to seek a solution to this problem. The issues we raise are too serious to be reviewed and approved without complete debate. It remains faculty responsibility to ensure fair and total hearing of the issues. urge We all Senators to take responsibility to overcome all obstacles to a full and just discussion on the amendments, and not let procedure be used as a weapon. We urge students to support our amendments and to take part in our Collegiate struggle by coming to the next Faculty-Senate meeting this Tuesday at 2:30 in Diefendorf 148, and by keeping informed on issues and related activities. For nearly six years the Colleges provided a space for students to create and participate equally in oqr own educational process. The College courses addressed themselves to vital student interests as well as pressing social concerns. The approval of the Majority Report by the Faculty-Senate yet would not only seriously curtail further of this nature, but also would invalidate our past goals, and ultimately transform the entire nature and spirit of the Colleges. Our present Collegiate System should be recognized as a victory won through hard work and organization. It represents a the by University concession administration to students, criticism of mechanical hierarchical education, and our concerns for integrated study and pressing social problems. Throughout the nation there is a backlash against gains made in the past. The present University’s attack on the Collegiate system must be viewed in this perspective; it is not that .the Colleges work have recently proven faulty, but rather that they have been effective, and as such are antogonistic to repressive forces.

It had been a crazy six weeks out in LA. recording Ringo’s new album. Almost like the old days with T Beatles they had all shown up and pitched in, even if they didn’t all play together. He wondered how the edited tapes would sound. inside, meanwhile, two high-level Apple people Pster Moog, musical consultant, and Julius Bigwig, corporate executive, have just finished listening to the tape of Ringo’s latest effort and are discussing its merits. “Well, what do you think?” asked Bigwig. “I’m impressed,” said Moog, anticipating the familiar next question. “But will it sell?” said Mhog, flicking an ash from his — - / % “Listen, JJL,” said Moog, putting his arm around the $75,000 executive. “You and I both know that the little Help from My Friends,” said Mai. “I don’t think the lyrics are worthy of John, though. I think he knocked it off the day after Ringo asked him to write a song for the album.” They passed the pipe during “Hold On,” a Randy Newman rocker about losing one’s baby to the milkman. Moog liked the guitar break, which turned out to be played by Marc Bolan. “Klaus Voorman does a nice job on bass on this album,” Moog observed. “I think the most outstanding studio man is Nicky Hopkins on piano,” said Mai. ‘That dude just gets better and better on those 88’s.” They gave each other a knowing look during the building, seductive intro to “Photograph,” a Gcoigc-Ringo tune. “Geoige’s influence on this album is definitely there,” said Moog, absorbed by Harrison’s high voice singing in perfect harmony behind Ringo’s lead. But all I've got is a photograph And I realize you ’re not coming back any more .. After a Booby Keyes solo, the intro returned at the end. ‘That’s an old Beatles trademark,” noted Mai. They smoked another bowl during “Sunshine Life for Me,” a weird, twangy country tune by Harrison backed up by David Bromberg and most of The Band. “I don’t like it,” said Mai. “Doesn’t sound like George.” “He probably wanted to show he can write in a different style, and about other things besides God,” said Moog. “Sri Krishna to you, my son,” said Mai. They tapped their feet through Ringo’s rendition of “Sweet Sixteen.” “Y’know, 1 hate old rock standards,” said Moog, “but what saves this one is the incredible harmony by Harry Nilsson,” who was ooo-wa-wa-ing his way behind Ringo’s lead. “I like McCartney’s little sax break,” said Mai. “He was just hanging around during the song and happened to pick up a nearby sax.” They discussed the fate of The Beatles during the next two cuts: “Oh My My.” an up-beat boogie number, and “Step Lightly,” a vaudevillian soft-shoe with backing clarinets. “Why won’t they all play together?” asked Moog. ‘They all have, except for Paul,” said Mai. “Ringo had to call Paul and say, ‘George and John have written me a song you don’t want to be left out, do you?’ Paul and John won’t play together there’s the contract and legal hassles; but mainly their egos are too big.” “But they complement each other so well. McCartney’s doint that commercial stuff with Wings he needs Lennon’s lyrics. Even musically he hasn’t been able . album will sell on Ringo’s name alone. When the public hears that all four Beatles are on the record, they’ll run out and buy it even if it was canned supermarket music.” “You’re right they do with McCartney’s albums,” said Bigwig. They both laughed. ‘The personnel is fantastic,” Moog continued. ‘The most important thing is to examine the quality of the music. One thing we were worried about was Ringo’s voice. How do you thing he comes off?” “Pretty fine,” said Mai, as the former roadie and longtime friend of The Beatles walked in. “Everyone knows Ringo isn’t a great lead singer, but his voice is honest and adequate. He carried himself well.” You know what I liked, Mai?” said Moog. ‘The use of the vocal harmonies. Producer Richard Perry did a fantastic job they’re so well-mixed.” “Harrumph!” Bigwig conspicuously cleared his throat in the executive fashion. “You’re sure it will sell?” “Positive, J.B.,” said Moog reassuringly “All right, then. We’ll release it to the radio stations October 15 with a $500,000 promotional budget.” Sensing the conversation was about to move from his area of sales to the less familar realm of musical expertise criticism, Bigwig walked to the door. “I’ll see you gentlemen later 1 have a conference at two.” As soon as he left, Mai Evans pulled a corncob pipe from his pocket. “Now that Mr. Corporate Finance is gone,” he said, filling the pipe, “let’s do some of this black hash and check out the album again!” Moog smiled. “Doesn’t it sound just like a Beatle song?” Mai asked as “I’m the Greatest” by John Lennon came on. “Well, it’s got three of them,” Moog agreed. “Ringo on drums, Harrison on guitar, and Lennon on piano and harmony. It’s a nice track.” / was in the greatest show on earth For what it was worth Now I'm only 32 And all I want to do is boogaloo Yes my name is Billy Shears,,. . . ‘That’s who Ringo was introduced as on “With a — — — - horizons beyond Krishna. At least, like Ringo, he’s been smart enough to surround himself with good people.” “John’s and Paul’s egos sometimes prevent them from doing that.” “Six O’Clock,” the song by McCartney, came on. “Not bad,” said Moog, noting Paul’s stylish work on piano and synthesizer. “Why can’t he write stuff like this all the time?” Moog smiled at the familar Paul- and-Linda harmony. ‘1 don’t know,” said Mai. “Maybe Linda did fuck his head up maybe he’s just too much of a family man now. They’re all over 30 and have families now, yTcnow. Maybe they’re Just too settled to get as inspired foor songwriting as when they were young, wild, touring the world, and tripping every day.” Maybe we’re all getting a little old, thought Moog as “Devil Woman” assailed his ears, a driving tunc with Ringo and Jim Keltner pounding away at the drums. But you 're like the devil with horns in your head The only way / ’ll get you is to get you in bed . . . Moog wondered whether Ringo wrote the song about a particular femme fatale or a fantasy-woman. Mai beamed during the last set, “You and Me, Babe,” which he helped write with Harrison. “What do you think?” For you and me, babe, it’s the end of our date Me and the band, babe, all though it was great To entertain you, but it's getting late and it's time to — leave Now I wanna tell you, the pleasure really was mine YedH I had a good time, singing and drinking some wine And when the sun sets in the sky, and you close your sleepy eyes I’ll be in some nightclub getting high, that’s no “It’s a haunting tune,” said Moog. “One of the best on the album. That guitar work by George is so tasteful listen to that guitar gently weep.” “And Nicky’s piano complements the lead perfectly,” Moog listened to Ringo thanking everybody on the album. “It’s a good record,” he surmised. “It’s kind of middle-of-the-road, there’s nothing that’s new on it but it’s an up head.” “You’re right. It’s nothing great lyrically. Musically, a lot of the cuts are overdone you know, over-produced, brass, strings just too much. But some tracks are better balanced and have that “clean” sound. It’s no landmark, but it’s nice listening. With so many shitty rock albums coming out today. I’d say it’s all right.” Bigwig walked back in. “Gentlemen, the Board has decided that “Photograph” can be a sure-fire hit single. What do you think?” “George and Ringo singles always hit the top of the charts, J.B. Besides, who are we to argue with the man who picked “My Sweet Lord,” “Give me Love” and “It Don’t Come Easy”? “What’s that funny smell in here?” asked Bigwig. Before they could explain, Richard Starkey walked into the studio, sipping a beer. “Hello, boys. Not bad, huh?” He tapped a few beats on the table-top. “C’mon, fellas,” he said to Mai and Moog, “we’re suposed to meet George at Casey’s Pub in a half-hour.” “But you’re supposed to report to the stockholder’s meeting at 4:00,” Bigwig protested to Moog as they headed for the door. “Make excuses for me. J.B.” said Moog, putting his arm around Ringo. “I’m joining the material world for — — - — - — — - to match the level of McCartney I he’s doing too many sirupy love songs.” “You’re right. And after two great efforts with Plastic Ono Band and Imagine Lennon seems to be that album with Elephant’s floundering musically Memory Band sounded like it was thrown together in a week. Even his lyrics lack their former satiric punch. People are now first starting to realize how well their individual talents blended.” “George has probably struck the best balance musically and lyrically, but he does need to broaden his — awhile.” -H.K Monday, 28 January 1974 The Spectrum Page eleven . . �� . * Sr v *; * ■> I �" ■ ' * r- i �� Extra care in engineering... it makes a big difference in small cars.

Prior to their victory, the Baby Bulls lost to Bryant and Stratton, Monday, 104-88. Joe Jackson scored 36 points for the winners, while John Ruffino was high for the Bulls with 24 points. Buffalo coach John Hill remarked: “We were beaten by a better team,” The Cornell contest could have been won by either team. The Bulls led 40-32 at the half, but hot shooting by the Big Red’s John Gilbert, who scored half of his team's points at the 20 minute mark, kept Cornell in the game. Big Red coach Tom Orth changed his strategy for the second half. Orth explained, “We switched to a fullcourt zone press. It caught them off guard.” The press helped Cornell Ridell excels The Baby Bulls received a fine performance from substitute Dave Ridell. “Ridell did a good job coming off the bench. He hit from the outside well,” said Hill. Ridell was brought in to replace Ruffino, who picked up his third personal foul with ab(out twelve minutes remaining in the first half. Ridell finished with 12 points. Throughout the game, Buffalo were plagued by poor foul shooting. They shot only 5-for-21 from the charity line (24%), Hill commented: “It couldn’t get any worse.

Two years ago, when the Bulls qualified eight wrestlers, no one from the tournament placed in the nationals. Last season, when Buffalo qualified six in a much tougher tournament (two regions had been added), three wrestlers from that regional placed in the nationals. The reduction in qualifiers, as Gray pointed out, is a result of Gray’s own Mid-American conference increasing from six teams to ten and being granted an extra qualifier because of it. Unfortunately the Eastern regional now has at least four new teams, even stronger than the mid-American additions. Clarion State will bring its eighth ranked team and two national champions to the Cincinnati events. Lock Haven, Cleveland State and Slippery Rock State will also be at Cincinnati for the first time. All three have excellent teams and Slippery Rock has a national small college champion, Jack Spates.

The explosion carried the Larries to a 9-5 triumph over the Bulls. Despite being outshot 30—13 over the first two periods, the Bulls were still in the game due to an outstanding effort by goaltender Don Maracle. Maracle turned away many excellent scoring chances while the Bulls had trouble keeping the puck away from St. Lawrence in the Buffalo end of the ice. - Sylvester hurt The Bulls were without the services of their top defenseman, Mark Sylvester, who recently suffered a knee injury. “We’re not exactly sure what the problem is,” St. Lawrence capitalized on two Bulls lapses, scoring reported Buffalo coach Ed Wright. “His knee has not their final period goals in bursts of three.

In a move that has ignited massive protests from University officials and student leaders. Academic Affairs vice-president Bernard Gelbaum has ordered the cancellation of 16 on-going College E courses, stranding approximately 200 students. “The credentials of the instructors are not adequate," Dr. Gelbaum wrote in a January 16 memorandum to Admissions and Records cancelling the 16 courses. Student Association (SA) President Jon Dandes has filed a class action grievance on behalf of the affected students in which he asked for the “reinstatement of all courses that he [Dr. Gelbaum) arbitrarily deleted.” In a letter to President Robert Ketter, Mr. Dandes also requested that Dr. Gelbaum be replaced as Academic Affairs 'Piece of staff work’ “It’s come to my attention that there may have been errors,” Dr. Gelbaum admitted after consulting with other administrators. If some of the courses in question were approved by DUS, then the list was in error, Dr. Gelbaum conceded. Asked why he didn’t investigate the matter himself, he said the list “was a piece of staff work” and acted on it without further scrutiny. “Dr. Gelbaum told me to carefully submit to him the names of all instructors who were not properly qualified,” explained Dr. Bennett. According to one cancelled instructor who spoke with Dr. Gelbaum, Dr. Bennett wrongly assumed that any instructor without a B.A. was an undergraduate without a faculty sponsor and thus ineligible to teach. Dr. Bennett said he had been seeking data on instructors from College E all semester, but had gotten a “run-around.” He said the names he had placed on the list were those without faculty sponsors. When told that qualified community members, unlike undergraduates, do not require faculty sponsors, he replied: “I’m terribly confused I think most of them [the instructors) were checked out.” vice-president. Dr. Ketter, who was not aware of the cancellation until informed by Student Association representatives, reportedly seemed deeply concerned and took immediate action. He asked the three University Deans to act as a “review panel” to determine if some or all of the courses should be reinstated. The peans Charles Ebert of Undergraduate Studies, MacAllister Hull of the Graduate School and Robert Berner of Millard Fillmore College will review the qualifications of each instructor in question and make their recommendations to Dr. Ketter by this afternoon. - ... — Reinstatement possible An investigation by DUS yesterday revealed that four of the cancelled courses two sections of Pop Radio, Professional Filmmaking and Horror Film have already been approved by DUS, and the Introductory and Advanced Photography courses are pending DUS approval. Although the review by the three Deans was not yet completed at press time, Dr. Ebert yesterday expressed his personal view that “those courses already approved by DUS are likely to be reinstated, and we are looking at a number of other courses which also may be reinstated.” Dr. Gelbaum explained that courses may be taught by faculty members, undergraduates with faculty supervisors or community people with expertise in a particular field. He said that he- had not personally reviewed the instructors’ qualifications of the courses he cancelled, but had received a list of “unqualified” instructors from H. Curtis Bennett, his assistant for the Colleges. Dr. Gelbaum appointed himself Acting Director of the Colleges in — - Missing files? Disputing a College E spokesman’s insistence that the instructors’ professional date was located in the College office he uses. Dr. Bennett said he never received the data and didn’t believe the files were in his office. However, an investigation by The Spectrum revealed that the professional files of 9 of the 13 instructors in question were in an unlocked file cabinet in his College office. Of the 9 instructors on file, five were adjunct lecturers from the community, three were undergraduates with faculty sponsors and one was an undergraduate with no faculty sponsor. Of the four missing files, two instructors were community members and two were undergraduates, one of whom had a faculty sponsor, (see box, page 2]. Dean of Undergraduate Studies Charles Ebert said he was not consulted, regarding the cancellation of the 16 courses. He expressed concern for the affected students and hoped a favorable solution would be forthcoming. In general, he has said he did not believe courses should be cancelled once the semester begins and students are registered for them. —continued on page 2 — �Gelhaum cancels A College E spokesman claimed that Dr. Bennett asked him which of the College E instructors had B.A.’s. Dr. Bennett allegedly approved all instructors with B.A.’s and those who he knew personally as “strong” people or teaching “good courses,” the spokesman claimed. The remaining instructors were placed on the cancellation list and sent to Dr. Gelhaum, presumably because they were assumed to be undergraduates and thus unqualified to teach. Dr. Bennett later explained; “1 am simply an agent or clerk for the vice-president. I was never given any administrative responsibilities. Dr. Gelbaum must accept full responsibility for any acts or decisions with regard to the Colleges.” “Gelbaum hired Bennett as a tool to screw the Colleges,” said one College member. “He’s manipulated him so badly that Bennett doesn’t know what’s going on.” “You must remember that there are 80,000 enrollments in this University,” Dr. Gelbaum later explained. “Keep in mind that if 300 people are affected, it represents less than one per cent of the entire University enrollment.” —continued from page I— ... longer being taught.Confused, Mr. Ghiraidini went to see Dr. Gelbaum yesterday. “He told me that Dr. Bennett had given him a list of courses being offered by undergraduate students,” Mr. Ghiraidini reported. “He said Dr. Bennett determined that anyone who did not have a bachelor’s degree was unqualified to teach. He said it was his understanding, or possibly misunderstanding, that the names on the list were undergraduate students, and that it was Dr. Bennett’s understanding that the undergraduates whom he reported were not covered by regular faculty supervisors,” Mr. Ghiraidini added. Harassment charged Dr. Gelbaum explained that any course taught by an undergraduate for which Dr. Bennett had not received a Dandes: replace Gdbaum In a letter to President Ketter yesterday, Mr. Dandes asked that be replaced with someone who can deal realistically and effectively be replaced with someone who can deal realiztically and effectively with our different academic concerns.” The SA President called for Dr. Gelbaum’s removal because of his “lack of sensitivity and concern for students the callous insensitivity of these actions [the cancellations] demonstrates his inability to separate his personal views from responsible administrative action.” In a second letter to Dr. Ketter, Mr. Dandes thanked the President for his “immediate and personal intervention” and formally requested that “the 19 courses cancelled in Dr. Gelbaum’s memorandum be immediately reinstated.” Mr. Dandes explained: the courses were listed in the spring semester Reporter with no forewarning to registering students that they might be cancelled; a number of the courses were approved by the DUS curriculum Ghiraldini said.

Bernard Gelbaum Dropped courses Editor’s note: These are the 16 courses cancelled by Dr. Gelbaum’s memo. Three other courses were cancelled by College E itself.

Dr. Kennedy interpreted the Senate’s action as an indication that many faculty members did not want the Faculty-Senate Colleges Committee, which wrote the report now being debated, to sit on the Chartering Committee. “I think that if the Senators have time to read the document and talk to us, something good may happen,” she said. However, central to this viewpoint was Dr. Kennedy’s assertion that the Colleges had only a limited amount of time to discuss the iisue with; ftcblty because the Senate meeting was held only six days after the new r semester began. , ' _ , .... “The Colleges' were at a disadvantage by not having a way that was official and sound to get their amendments on the floor,” she said. �' 1 ■! ■■ ■ >■ *' ■» ■ Fac-Sen action { 4 'iP \* Amendments are rejected; collegians added to panel current Collegiate Assembly be included on the Chartering Committee. They had recommended that Collegians from the by Gary Cohn Campus Editor The Faculty-Senate amended Jonathan Reichert’s Colleges Committee report Tuesday by adding two Collegiate Assembly members to. the Chartering Committee which must approve every College that is to continue beyond 1974. Under the new guidelines, every existing College will be required to win approval before the Chartering Committee composed of six faculty members, thrhe yet-unformed College Council by January 1, 1975. Since the College Council will not be formed until the first College receives its new charter, the Faculty-Senate voted to allow two Collegiate Assembly members on the Chartering Committee in the interim. Any College which is not approved by this committee by next January will cease to exist. Extensive debate regarding the Collegiate Assembly’s proposed amendment that would have given equal representation to faculty and Collegians on the Chartering Committee highlighted the three-hour meeting. A “balanced” Chartering Committee was first suggested by Roger Cook, a graduate student on the Colleges Committee who dissented from the majority’s report in a separate opinion. Mr. Cook’s proposal was later endorsed by the Collegiate Assembly. The Faculty-Senate rejected the joint representation plan by a 45-12-1 margin despite repeated and often eloquent appeals from students, Collegians and some Faculty Senators. Other Senators, led by Fac-Sen Chairman-elect George Hochfield, successfully argued against the amendment by stressing that faculty must have the primary responsibility for determining academic programs. The majority of the Colleges Committee had proposed that no members of the — — new College Council (which will replace the Collegiate Assembly) be included in the chartering process only after a College was approved. Dr. Reichert explained that excluding Collegians from the initial chartering process was advisable because of the “problems of legitimacy” which he feels has plagued the Colleges. ‘The primary responsibility for initiating and dissolving academic program rests with the faculty,” Dr. Reichert said. Conflict of interest? Allowing representatives from the Collegiate Assembly to vote on their own initiation would also be a conflict of interest, he added. Disagreeing with the Reichert report, Larry Chisholm of American Studies called the joint representation plan a “reasonable compromise” between faculty-based legitimacy and continuity of the existing College programs and input from its members. Alternatively, Claude Welch of Political Science argued that the Reichert report would provide a further basis for student, faculty and administration support for the Colleges. The Reichert report allows for “greater participation” and retains the “vibracy and excitement” of the Colleges, Dr. Welch added. More amendments coming Earlier in the meeting,- which packed Diefendorf 148 with interested students as well as a strong turnout of Senators, the Faculty-Senate narrowly rejected a Collegiate Assembly amendment which asked that proposals for College status should include “a statement firmly establishing lines of aut ity, responsibility Ethoir coppvction- and communication to the Dean [of the Colleges]The Collegians argued that this proposal would have allowed for greater internal governance by the individual College units. The remaining Collegiate Asseobly amendments to the Colleges Committee report will be considered at the next Faculty-Senate meeting. Other key proposals include an amendment that would make “failure to abide by the approved charter” the sole grounds for dissolution of a College. The Reichert Committee had recommended that loss (without replacement) of key faculty, failure to follow University regulations, insufficient student interest and failure to abide by the charter be grounds for dissolution. The Collegians will also propose an amendment that “Colleges may offer experimental courses on a one-semester basis.” The, Reichert Committee has recommended that prior approval by the Division of Undergraduate Studies (DUS) be a prerequisite for every new College course. Experimental courses in the Colleges have been allowed a one-semester trial, after which DUS approval was required. The Collegians are also suggesting that Workshops be allowed to grant credit for their courses. Under the Workshop program, any prospective College, with the exception of the currently existing units, must begin with a one-semester trial as a Workshop. During the first semester, the Workshop may offer only non-credit seminars. After the trial period (one to three semesters), the Workshop must apply for charter status as a new College or disband. The Collegians also plan to propose several amendments dealing with College governance procedures. These proposals call for greater influence for College members in setting internal policy for the Colleges. If the Colleges Committee report is approved by the Faculty-Senate, Dr. Reichert expects that the first new College could be chartered “by June or July.” The appointment of Irving J. Spitzberg, Jt. as the Dean (formerly Director) of the Colleges was officially confirmed at the Senate meeting. Dr. Spitzberg, 32, a graduate of Columbia University and Yale Law School, is presently serving as a Fellow at the Institute of Current World Affairs. He is expected to arrive on campus and begin his tenure as Dean of the Colleges sometime in March. THE — WE’RE SORRY. . . WE MADE A MISTAKE.

First implemented last semester as a method of resolving student academic problems, the procedure now handles one grievance a day. “I think it’s fantastic and very effective,” said Ron Stein, associate director of Student Affairs, who worked with Student Association to implement the procedure. “The student is guaranteed a forum before an impartial panel. All the student has to do is come in and we’ll help him follow it through.” Dr. Stein initially reviews a grievance to see if it can be resolved before submitting it to the grievance committee. He recommends talking the problem over with the faculty member first. Hearing committee Most grievances are generally resolved on this level. However, if no agreement is reached, the grievance is presented to a hearing committee of two students and members. This faculty two committee has already reviewed 30 cases and claims a 90% success rate in resolving the grievance. SA submitted 58 grievances to the committee Wednesday Financial independence, full editorial control goal of paper A growing trend among student organizations in who have concerning teachers recent years has been incorporation.

Action Committee attempts to solve various problems by Linda Moskowitz Feature Editor < For many of the poor, middle-aged women in Buffalo, the YWCA on North Street is home. With no family or close friends to provide companionship, these forgotten women lead lonely, anonymous lives. The University’s Community Action Corps (CAC) however, has hot forgotten and is now recruiting volunteers who will visit the YWCA and act as companions to these women, reading, talking, and sharing skills with them. CAC is a student-run organization Which serves the Buffalo community by offering volunteer sejyice to various organizations and institutions. Their activities include day care, drug and youth counseling, education, health care, recreation, social services, legal and welfare intervention. Director Mark Carlin also noted that “CAC is always willing to cooperate with students who have new ideas. If someone comes in and wants to work in a certain place, we’ll do our best to set them up.” _ Social change The Action Committee is one of CAC’s more effective components, but its work is not as well-known as the volunteer service. This committee works directly for social change through research projects in conjunction with community groups or government agencies. “We deal with immediate problems and situations,” said Marti Thome, Action Committee Director. Currently, the Buffalo Rapid Transit System is being investigated. In the past, Action Committee has focused on such areas as environmental action. Buffalo Parks Department has considered removing recreational equipment from various “Tot Lot” playgrounds around the city, due to lack of maintenance funds.

The response to Action Committee has not been very great in the past; Mr. Carlin suspects “this is because students may not see the direct fruits of their work. But Action Committee is a vital part of CAC,” he continued, “where we attempt to seek out real causes of problems and propose solutions." by patients. A variety of other programs deal with recreation and social services throughout Buffalo. CAC's Basketball League for community youth which meets Sunday mornings in Clark Gym has been highly will accept students to act as companions to prisoners in Attica and Albion State Prisons. These volunteers will undergo an orientation about the problems and conditions of convicts, and can then visit many of those prisoners who have no family or friends visiting them. The Women’s Prison Project is operated through the Women’s College at the Erie County Jail. Although CAC volunteer work is generally on a non-credit basis, an experimental independent study program is now under way where a limited number of Transportation paid CAC participates in five day-care centers located near the University and in the inner-city. Those in the inner-city are now in need of volunteers. CAC will try to provide transportation by arranging car pools or will reimburse students for any transportation costs. Drug and youth counseling comprises segment of CAC’s activities. Specific programs now exist at the Erie County Rehabilitation Center, a temporary residence for alcoholic men, and Night People, which provides a community center for those on the street with no place to go. Companions are needed for these people to talk, play chess or counsel. The Erie County Rehabilitation Center, which recently acquired a $6 million building, now has little money to spare for staff and supervision. Volunteers are always needed here, as well as at other crisis centets throughout the city. Education projects are conducted for special education, alternative projects, speech and hearing therapy, general tutoring and high school equivalency programs. One of CAC’s more outstanding achievements is the Creative Learning Project for emotionally disturbed children, who are brought to Norton Hall where classes are conducted. Tutoring and adult education projects are underway at the Tonawanda Indian reservation; the Friendship House in Lackawanna’s poverty area provides a community center and another successful. Elderly people are often lonely and have difficulty moving around, and companions are always needed to spend time with them and make them feel useful again. Another successful program is the Big Brother and Sister program, which has just received a six-month grant of $4000 from the Buffalo Youth Board. Children in the program came from broken homes or orphanages and are referred by various social service agencies. Volunteers are required to spend approximately 15 hours a week with their child, and CAC will pay all their expenses. Currently more Big Brothers are needed. BRIDGE, a prisoner rights organization. students may do volunteer work and then relate their experience to academic study, in the form of a paper or project. Fifteen to 25 faculty members have so far agreed to supervise such work, and if the project is successful, the independent study will be open to more students in the future, and supervision will be broadened to a departmental basis. CAC relies on volunteers; anyone wishing to work for CAC can contact them at Room 220 Norton Hall, or call 831-3609. They now work with over 70 organizations and are receptive to all new ideas. Orientation workshops as well as on-going training is provided for all assignments.

This country provides 80% of the cost of keeping the Thieu regime in power Included in this sum is the financing of over 6000 U.S. “civilians” carrying out military activities, according to the 1974 Senate Defense Authorization Hearings. The New York Times of October 28, 1973, put the figure at 20,000. While we suffer an “oil shortage” here, 22,000 barrels of oil per day is being shipped to the Saigon military for planes, tanks and other military operations. Since the signing of the peace agreement one year ago, we have heard numerous reports of fighting, yet it’s often hard to determine who is at fault. intend to abide by the agreement. He has ordered “Communists” entering “his zones” to be shot, and brags that he has captured 400 villages since the cease-fire, according to The New York Times of March 14, 1973. Gen. Thicu opposes the nationwide elections that are called for by the peace agreement, the Post reported last month. According to the American Friends Service Committee, he has also held about 200,000 political prisoners in U.S.-financed jails; he maintains that it is illegal to be a Communist or neutralist; and he forces hundreds of thousands of refugees to stay in squalid camps, all in violation of the peace agreement. $10 million of our tax money for 1973 went specifically to Saigon’s police and prison system. 'Brutal war maniacs’ Cora Weiss of the American peace movement recently traveled to Vietnam and spoke with Le Due Tho, chief negotiator for the Democratic Republic of Viet Nam (North Vietnam). According to her report, Mr. Tho says; “If the war continues to escalate in South Vietnam and Cambodia, it will be due to American actions. That is why it is important to compel the U.S. to carry out the provisions of the Vietnam peace agreement. If the Saigon administration, helped and backed by the U.S., carries on the war, we have no alternative but to fire back. Our people are resolutely acting against these actions of Saigon because this is the only way to compel these brutal war maniacs to carry out the agreement. The situation in South Vietnam is caused by the U.S. and Saigon. They must bear responsibility for it.” This afternoon, from noon until 2 p m., a demonstration and picket line will be held at the Federal Building, Delaware and West Huron, in downtown Buffalo. The rally is sponsored by the Vietnam Veterans Against the War and Winter Soldier Organization. They urge everyone to attend. The organizers are insisting the U.S. force implementation of the treaty, end all aid to Gen. Thieu and Premier Lon Nol of Cambodia, and grant universal and unconditional amnesty to all war resisters. In addition, they are calling for the immediate impeachment of President Nixon. Cease-fire a ‘mockery’ The Washington Post reported on September 30, 1973: “In the past month, military officials say almost 20 square miles of formerly Communist-held territory has been seized ■ by South Vietnamese troops driving westward from Highway 1.” As one high-ranking Saigon official views it: “For us, the cease-fire is only a mockery, perpetrated by Nixon.” Just two weeks ago, the Washington Post of January 5, 1974 stated: “President Nguyen Van TJiieu today called on his troops to attack the Vietcong in their own territory because he said the Vietnam war had begun again.” In reality, the war has been going on since the signing of the peace agreement. Gen. Thieu says openly that he doesn’t Workshop to discuss the continued fighting “As the first anniversary of the signing of the Vietnam Peace Agreement approaches, a sense of its collapse is spreading in the United States. We read of 100,000 Casualties since January 27, 1973, a rate higher than any year of the war except 1968 and 1972. The State Department seeks legal loopholes in the August 15th bombing ban, and the Commander-in-Chief of the Pacific air forces proclaims their readiness to resume bombing in case of a communist offensive. Few reports go deep enough to probe why only the Democratic Republic of North Vietnam and the Provisional Revolutionary Government (PRG) have actively promoted understanding of the Agreement among its people.” The American Vietnamese Friendship Committee of the Western New York Peace Center released the above statement as a summary of the deteriorating conditions that have developed since the signing of last January’s Vietnam Peace Agreement. Over the last twelve months, while American attention has shifted away from Vietnam and towards issues closer to home, thousands of Vietnamese people have died in skirmishes, referred to only as “treaty violations.” There is no peace in Indochina, despite the pronouncements of the Nobel Peace Prize Committee, Henry Kissinger or Richard Nixon. What ‘peace’? The Western New York Peace Center will hold a workshop tomorrow to discuss various aspects of the “peace” and the problems arising from last year’s agreement. According to organizers Rev. Ken Sheynan and Rev. James Meng, the aim of the conference will be to “promote understanding of the Peace Agreements,” and “to educate ourselves and others about the realistic means for achieving peace.” The program will be conducted at the Amherst Unitarian Church, 6320 Main Street, this Saturday, January 26, from 1 to 5 p.m. J. Garith Porter of Cornell University will be the keynote speaker. Workshops will deal with the problems of Political Prisoners under Thieu, Medical Aid to Indochina, and U.S. Foreign Policy.

That Dr. Gelbaum could receive a list of unqualified instructors as a "piece of staff work," and immediately strand 200 students by without checking eliminating their courses is almost into the facts any further incomprehensible. The list was provided by his admittedly "confused" assistant, H. Curtis Bennett, who wrongly assumed that all instructors without B.A.'s were undergraduates without faculty sponsors. Actually, many undergrads did sponsors, many were have faculty professional community people, and four of the courses were DUS-approved. Bureaucratic bungling is not really the point, however; everyone is entitled to make mistakes and even misjudgements. The crime is that Dr. Gelbaum cancelled the courses without a thought for the 200 students enrolled, who, he indicated, were after all "less than one per cent of the University's enrollment." To him, people are just percentage points. We have long opposed Dr. Geibaum's narrow educational views, his obsession with credentials, his opposition to Collegiate experimentation. By contrast, DUS Dean Charles Ebert, also considered a conservative by many, always considers the students' welfare first and would recoil at the idea of cancelling classes once the semester has started. Dr. Ebert was not consulted; neither was President Ketter, who immediately ordered an impartial review by the school's three Deans when told of the cancellations by alert SA members. But Dr. Gelbaum has always been allowed a free hand by Dr. Ketter, and he has regularly abused that power. As the school's top academic official, he has shown a disturbing inability to communicate with students and has been an obstructional force against both the Colleges and the student body. Last year. Dr. Gelbaum released his Academic Plan for the University's next decade, which he singly authored with little input from faculty and absolutely no input from students, who he said would be "consulted" before it was implemented. This accurately reflects Dr. Geibaum's view that students should be taught and not heard, and certainly have no place in determining academic programs. His judgment on the widely-praised 4-course load is that it is "acceptable in theory but not in practice"; he naturally condemns any formula that de-emphasizes formal classroom instruction. Last March Dr. Gelbaum terminated College B instructor Jonathan Ketcham without explaining why. Last August he ignored Collegiate regulations and allowed College D to secede from the Collegiate Assembly, presumably so this "straight" College he likes could get direct funding. Last September he proposed that two-thirds of the Colleges be abolished so the remaining three or five could "operate in the economy of the middle class," an arbitrary pre-judgement that was rightly rejected. Then in October he made the insensitive, self-serving move of appointing himself Acting Director of the Colleges. Even more audacious, he designated Dr. Bennett, who the Collegiate Assembly rejected 9-to-1 as director, as his assistant for the Colleges, somehow expecting the Colleges to work with the man they overwhemingly rejected, Education for Dr. Gelbaum is rigid, he conventional classroom instruction alternative experiential approaches or dislikes or teachers without credentials— and it is no wonder the Colleges mistrust Administration promises of good faith with him at the helm.

His abuse of his sweeping powers, his regular administrative manipulations, his restrictive ideas of what is educationally appropriate, his obsession with credentials, his steadfast opposition to innovative and above all, his insensitivity and Colleges are not often utter disregard for students the that a creative qualities University can afford in the man holding the top academic post. We think it would be in the best interest of the student body and of the University as a whole if President Ketter were to replace Dr. Gelbaum with someone more realistic and receptive to alternative ideas, or if Dr. Gelbaum were to voluntarily resign and return to teaching. Any real progress or communication between students and the Administration remains impossible with Dr. Gelbaum in his present post, " . — — _ . . COI16Q6S Stf3 00160 0 , Advocates of the new College Prospectus and long at Tuesday's argued hard Faculty-Senate meeting that the new structure would not hamper innovation, Their insistence on "good faith" that the Administration would not exercise stifling control was shattered the next day by Dr. Geibaum's wholesale cancellation of 16 College E courses. The Faculty-Senate was unwilling to believe that placing the Colleges under a rigidly-controlled hierarchy of faculty and Administration would stifle new ideas. They were unwilling to believe that most of today's Colleges will not survive through 1974 if a faculty-dominated Chartering Committee must approve each new unit on the basis of faculty members with "credentials" and conventional "legitimacy." They were unwilling to believe that if experimental courses were abandoned to the DUS bureaucracy to be judged by and paper-pushers, desk-bound new unconventional ideas would not survive, Perhaps Dr. Geibaum's action will now make them think twice. He has underscored the twin dangers of Administrative control of the Colleges: the confusion and distance of memo-writing bureaucrats; and the utter insistence on credentials to the exclusion of an alternative approach to education. Tuesday's meeting demonstrated that the Faculty-Senate has become far more conservative than their predecessors who originally created the Colleges. While the abuses of the past certainly warrant significant reform, their obsession with "legitimacy" has caused them to overshoot the balance between academic integrity and the degree of autonomy which encourages student, community and non-traditional input and innovation. Perhaps Dr. Geibaum's casual course-bouncing will sensitize the Faculty-Senators to this danger at future meetings. Colleges, not courses, are next in line to get bounced. If the Faculty-Senate abandons the Colleges to a rigid hierarchy of administrative control, they will merely traditional, conventional, become non-controversial ad hoc departments. W4W Dandes: Remove Gelbaum and restore courses Editor’s note: The following two letters were sent to President Robert Ketter by SA President Jon Dandes. Dear President Ketter. a situation which in I am writing to you at this time to address for the academic well-being of this University. It is my belief that Dr. Bernard R. Gelbaum as the chief academic officer of this University has consistently shown a lack of sensitivity and concern for students, and the general mood of the University. His most recent actions concerning the deletion of nineteen (19) college courses has made a heretofore uncomfortable situation a totally intolerable one. The callous insensitivity of these actions demonstrates his inability to separate his personal views from responsible administrative action. I believe that it is in the best interests of the students of this institution and in the best interests of all parties concerned that Vice-President Gelbaum be relieved of his administrative responsibilities and be replaced with someone who can deal realistically and effectively with our different academic concerns. One who can implement and integrate the varied academic philosophies so often articulated by yourself, the Faculty Senate and the Student Association. We are at a crucial point in our growth as a University. The move out to Amherst, the proposed Collegiate Prospectus, and a myriad of innovative and exciting programs have placed this University at the threshhold of national prominence. We must begin to believe in ourselves and fulfill our potential to become the pre-eminent academic center that we all believe we are capable of becoming. It would be a tragic mistake not to recognize this potential and fail to progressively move ahead by allowing out-dated and rigid constraints to be placed upon us. Moreover, the methods used in applying these restraints are totally inappropriate and ill-conceived. The Collegiate System can represent the progressive and constructive efforts of a University united behind a commitment to academic excellence. Dr. Gelbaum has consistently blocked positive development and maturity of this philosophy. The position which has been taken comes after much thought, extensive deliberation, and has been the source of great personal anguish. However, I am compelled by conscience and commitment to the welfare of the student body to follow this course of action. In full realization of Dr. Gelbaum’s reputation as a fine instructor and as a man of the highest personal integrity, it is hoped tthis situation can be resolved in a manner most beneficial to all my view, has become a serious problem „ concerned. Most Sincerely, Jonathan A. Dandes, President Student Association Dear President Ketter. 1 would like to address myself to the memorandum dated January 16, 1974 from Vice President Gelbaum to Dr. Dremuk regarding the deletion of nineteen (19) courses from the University’s course offering list. You will recall that the Student Association Executive Committee brought this matter to your attention at our meeting of January 23, 1974. Let me first however thank you for your immediate and intervention into this matter. The entire Executive Committee was very much buoyed by your concern and your actions and we are confident that your actions will lead to rectification of the present situation. I would at this time formally request the the nineteen (19) courses cancelled in Dr. Gelbaum’s memorandum be immediately personal re-instated. It is my feeling that the timing of Dr. Gelbaum’s directive would preclude any justification fof his action. May I remind you of the following: 1) These courses were regularly listed in The Reporter for the Spring Semester which were available by December 1, 1973. Students were able to register for these courses without any forewarning as the possibilities of their discontinuation. 2) It is now two (2) weeks into tHe semester, these classes have met and class work has been initiated in most of them. At this time it would be virtually impossible to re-register to make up the four (4) credits lost. 3) A number of the courses had already been approved by the Division of Undergraduate Studies Curriculum Committee. As you know the Committee is comprised of both Faculty and Students, and it has always been my understanding that this body has final judgement over course review. 4) Faculty-Senate discussions concerning the Collegiate Prospectus are at a critical stage where cooperation by all concerned should be the focus. Dr. Gelbaum’s actions concerning the courses in light of these discussions I befieve are inappropriate and pose a definite threat to substantive and meaningful discussions in the future. The potential harm to the students involved is of course my primary concern. There is however another fundamental question, that being to what extent shall Dr. Gelbaum’s action be allowed to destroy the sense of good-faith and trust that was engineered by Professor Reichert’s report and your own constant commitment to positive and constructive actions concerning the Colleges. 1 am confident that your primary concern in this matter will be the welfare of the students involved and more generally the welfare of the University at large. Once again, thank you for your consideration and concern. Most Sincerely, Jonathan A. Dandes, President Student Association w '* * a »'• « « »lYtl tt l �'�'» �4 ! I * -N / the coming attractions.

Gee, I thought they sured that." Anything but funny. I'll now confess, but my madness knew no bounds. No one was safe from me; I was completely invidious. Out of the blue I would phone friends who liked the book just to insult them. I spat at sparrows. Once, I even contemplated dressing myself up like a snozzled seagull and getting myself canned on a morals charge. Surely, things had come to a pretty pass. This couldn't go on forever. One day, and it was really nobody's fault, a publicity release reached my desk it was all over. There in glossy black and white was the awaited asservation that JLS was coming and coming soon, to a theater near me (the Holiday Theateris not especially near me, but distances don't mean one hell of a lot, the movie tells us.)

And, of course, a god he will become. Are we to learn from this that humility is rewarded by grandeur and praise? The last thing a humble man should desire or need isgushy praise. Incidentally, that is the last thing this film should get.

Steve McQueen Dustin Hoffman fill the bill. Also, there are several scenes with countless extras to meet the "cast-of-thousands" requirement for an extravaganza.

Adding the cherry to his sundae of calculation, the movie is called PapiUion. Thus, to buy a ticket is to speak French. You feel like you are ordering a Parisian meal in a fancy French restaurant. You can sneer at people who mispronounce the word, as people who don't need sub titles for foreign films sneer at those who do. You are in on the joke, and especially in if you know what the word means. It is well-worth the price of a ticket to see how a director can manipulate a property to ape daring, yet tasteful; greatness. Objectivity Always I try to approach a movie in an open-minded (and good-natured) manner, but in this case as I had read the book and found it pompous almost to the point of being cocky, and since the book's lines were often lifted intact for the screenplay, there was a good reason to suppose that the film and the book would be of the feather. Since I was initially so anti-JLS, why did I even bother to see the thing in the first place? Well, we don't always see the films we think we will like, y'know. Sometimes, like this time, we go to the movies just to witness the hoopla; to sit with our critical glasses hoping to be pleasantly surprised, but never really expecting to be. Like a newsman at a riot, we get the story first-hand while remaining detached. A critic's domain is a film, and it is usually best to leave the audience out of things altogether. JLS is an exception. The day I saw the movie, there were twelve habited nuns inhabiting the theater, and an undetermined number of plainclothed clergy. I think they were admitted free (something was up, that's for sure) and, finally, I decided it was good business to do so. With all that pious dedication sanctioning the effort, the movie might begin to seem like some zany cinimatic religious experience. A trip to the Bijou becomes a pilgrimage. same Mass The nuns were not the only curiosity; in the audience everyone practically like they "sincere" seemed explipitly just wasn't a movie. thought this bird flick revelation. them, To it was a Grim and determined, they only reflected what the movie provided. The story is presented with a film of real seagulls going through the motions of the plot. When they converse, human voices do the talking (of course, the flick isn't bill-synced). To fill time, in between scenes there is beautiful (read: garish) photography of birds in flight, and a sound-track of Neil Diamond singin' and strummin' his heart out. This sort of audio-visual story-telling with animal characters is much cheaper and easier than thfTpai nstalk' mg afftrtiafi on of a Disney caVtoofi. The impression it makes is so insignificant that you .find yourself — (transcendental or otherwise), discard your cross, or pawn your paintbrush. Actually, is is only a pretentious little movie that tries to convince you it's important by impressing you with phony spirit. It's a bumper-sticker for humility.

The answer was inspired, in a grubby sort of way. Touchy topics Beginning with an average, middle-class, suburban sensibility as a gauge, he found himself a list of "topics" that make such people uncomfortable; Nudity (male and female), rough language, the excretory system, homosexuality, leprosy, and gore. By making the presentation of these boogy-men acceptable to his middle-class model, he hoped to fashion a film that was In its favor, at least PapiUion is seldom dull. As a thrilling adventure-story, it succeeds in keeping our eyes (and occasionally, our mouths) wide open. While we never really care very much about the characters as people, we care about what is happening to them, and in adventure tale, this is sometimes enough. If you've a choice to make, see PapiUion before you see Jonathan Livingston Seagull. While one's as pretentious as the other, at least PapiUion is entertaining and stars Hoffman and McQueen to boot. �' Sleeper' Allen's coherent story fails to save flick from lack of humor by Randi Schnur himself involved in an underground movement to undermine Our Leader, a white-haired, white-robed, grandfather-type sporting a wheelchair and a seeing-eye dog (social comment, anyone?), by uncovering the government's top-secret Aires Project. On the way, he masquerades as a robot, meets Luna (a famous poetess whose work is lauded as "deep and so obviously influenced by McKuen"), has his brain rear-ranged once or twice, becomes Miss America, and so He finds revolutionary Assistant Am Editor Woody Allen's Christmas gift to the world is another chapter in his Portrait of the Artist as a YOung Schlemiel. With Sleeper, he has established himself as perhaps the foremost 90-pound weakling of our time ("I'm not the heroic type," we see him scream, "I was beaten up by Quackersl"), and definitely our most hilarious teleological existential atheist, whatever he meant by that. He is not, however, a comic genius just yet, but he does try hard with his latest efforts in that direction being good for fewer laughs than his previous ones. Sleeper (playing at the Amherst Theater) is the most coherent of the films Allen has directed so far. Unlike, say. Take the Money and Run, in which he loosely strung a series of gags together on one plot strand like sundry beads on fraying twine, Sleeper comes equipped with a story line strong enough to carry the jokes with it, rather than the other way around. This should, theoretically, produce a better movie. But while some of those mixed-up beads shone brightly enough on their own to make the earlier film work. Sleeper's laughs seem distinctly cheaper. — forth. — No strings? There is no cellist in the school marching band, no punishment by solitary confinement with an insurance salesman. In their place, we find a muscle-bound revolutionary accused by our jealous hero of missing an important mission to take his "handsome lesson," and a head of government who now runs the land with his nose only, so to speak, who is advised on the operating table that he "better lay off Armenian women." Relatively slim pickings, these. Sleeper is the story of one Miles Monroe, erstwhile jazz clarinetist and proprietor of the Happy Carrot Health Food Restaurant on Bleecker Street in Greenwich Village. Hospitalized in 1973 for a routine ulcer operation that results in fatal complications, he is frozen in aluminum foil and then unwrapped, bewildered but alive, exactly two hundred years later. Schlamiei gets girl He loses Luna to her "Bolshevik brothers," most notably the muscular Erno mentioned above, but wins her at the end, which leaves Woody Allen with both his first real amorous success and the worst ending of any of his films to date. Well, 1973 was not exactly a vintage year for film comedy, and Sleeper is thus a high point in an otherwise dismal valley. Very few comedians ever actually succeed in knocking their audiences over into the aisles, but we have come to expect just that from writer-director-star Allen and we can only be disappointed when we namage to stay effortlessly seated for an hour and a half. Allen and co-writer Marshall Brickman seem to have thrown in just about anything they could get their hands on, from slapstick to political satire to recurring sight gags to the usual heavy dose of weird one-liners (miles on clean living: "I don't drink, I don't smoke, I would never force myself sexually on a blind person"), but there are too few of those incongruous absurdities that Allen does perhaps better than anyone else. Diane Keaton, who co-starred in Play It Again, Sam, is once again a perfect foil for cosmic lover Allen. As the loony Luna, the beautiful poetess with a Ph.D. in oral sex ("That's great," Miles answers her, "did they make you take any Spanish with it?"), she shows herself to be a fine comedienne after his own heart, working especially well as Stanley Kowalski to Miles's Blanche Dubois in one of the film's funniest scenes. She seems to share her co-star's feelings for the ridiculous, and gets better, as does he, as the circumstances become increasingly absurd. The music, provided by both the New Orleans Funeral Ragtime Orchestra and real-life clarinetist Allen's own Preservation Jazz Band, came close to being the best part of the whole deal. As for Woody Allen, his talent as a comedian is not quite yet in danger of being eclipsed by his musicianship, but he'd better watch out a few more Sleepers just might do it. Copywrong His movements and facial expressions are terrific as usual, but the settings he creates for them are surprisingly uneven. Government Security's constantly backfiring artillary may still have been hilarious in Mack Sennett’s day, but we've all seen it too many times to laugh very hard.

A tiny, but positively human, footprint. How you know the excitement that can run about your brain when you flip the pages of a book edited by Damon Knight. Nowhere does there exist a man so capable of choosing stories this thrilling to include in an anthology. Not wishing to keep you any longer in suspense, let's get back to the story; Exactly what was a footprint doing in the soap? The narrator of this story is at first shocked and he runs off in Robinson Crusoe fashion to prepare his defenses. Then, however, not immediately being attacked by the creature walking around in his soap, he begins to notice a certain daintiness in the curve of the arch and the point of the toes. He concludes that the print must necessarily belong to a female, despite the obvious fact that any print less than an inch long would necessarily be dainty. Then certain connotative uses of soap and its lubricant values pop up in his head. Who does the footpring belong to? Good, clean symbolism John Collier, author of this story which is suggestively called "Are You Too Late, or Was I too Early," creates a small winged nymph to fit the footprint. Someone, most likely the narrator himself, has trampled upon the narrator's cleanliness! Obvious, isn't it? The story's symbolism, unlike that in most science fiction, is easily seen. This implies that the story is not science fiction Damon Knight has labelled it "fantasy" and whishes to get that point fiction and fantasy. Besides, very few people in the science fiction field viction and fantasy. Besides, very few people in the science fiction field would want to be associated with a story about a tiny nymph prancing about in a sopa dish, believing that no one can take the place of Thumbelina, even the upstart Tinkerbell. Not-so-super-natural The title of the book also mentions the supernatural. If you like Hitchcock and Night Gallery, however, you will soon be disappointed. Even the H.P. Lovecraft story which is included is not of his usual sort. While "The Dream Quest of Unknown Kadath" is one of his most famous works, it is not in any way his most representative. This story is indeed a quest, for it searches for a reason for its having been written in the most peculiar places. Kadath is the sunset city seen by Randalph Carter in several complicated dreams. It becomes the desire of his life to reach this city, and, like John Carter of Edgar Rice Burroughs' Martian works, Randalph travels by willing hemself there. With this spectacular command of astro-projection he travels the many middle-earths of the dream world and finally meets up with Nyarlathotep, the crawling chaos. Through him, or it, Randalph learns that Kadath is not a real live city but is instead only the many happy childhood memories he holds of the sunsets over Boston and New —Kirstein 1 Waiting for Godot' as the Orbit series. He also edited the first in the series of Science Fiction Writers of America annual award anthologies; Nebula Award Stories 1965. Award story anthology contributions have little in common except that or runners-up in the same England. One is immediately aware of a difference they have all been winners Knight carries this lack or actual consistency into contest. Lurking as "The others, this and his such story between almost all of his anthologies, including this, his latest. Fear" and "The Haunter of the Dark.” There is one consistency, however, that he and many editors comply with: when a story by Larry Niven is other Science fiction vs. science fact must appear as the very last story of the Science fiction is not absent from The Golden Road, to be included, it this law has bever been written down, almost book. While with Air despi' every anthology I have ever read has done this to Niven, and in his case this is not to save the best for last. "Not Long Before the End" is a poor story far from his Ringworld zenith. Deliciously different Of the, nineteen stories in the book, three were written by females. This is a relatively high proportion when it comes to fantasy and science fiction. Kate Wilhelm, Zenna Henderson and Ursula K. le Guin have each written stories that gave Damon Knight "delicious glimpses into certain realms" not commonly viewed by man. Of the three, Ursula K. le Guin is the only one possessing any degree of consistent good writing. In 1970 her novel. The Left Hand of Darkness, won a Hugo award and last year her novella The Word for World is Forest did the same. The story in this anthology is "The Word of Unbinding," and while it appears to be a typical example of sword and sorcery, it betrays a quality rarely seen in le Gum's other writings; the art of the pun. The tale is about an introverted warlock and it is carried out with the highest degree of intellect imaginable for the printed page But then, le Guin has always been amazing. stories by Arthur Machen and Heywood Broun, there are works by Cyril M. Kornbluth, Alfred Bester and H.G. Wells. There is also the novelette by Robert A. Heinlein which is the second half of another book often seen as Waldo and Magic, Inc. Heinlein is very talkative about Magic, Inc. and he labels it "fantasy," saying that it is based on the violation of scientific fact because it treats magic and astrology as if they were sciences. Heinlein feels that science fiction in the true sense of the word must be based on science fact, thus holding with the Analog school of reasoning. Since his story treats magic as a scientific fact, the story is based on scientific fact and should therefore be considered science fiction. Magic. Inc. has very little in common with what Heinlein compares it to: the Oz books. Heinlein's story has no munchkins, and what is an Oz book without pictures or munchkins in it? Not 'In Deep' enough Damon Knight has tried, though. He is the editor of several anthologies, including In Deep and Far Out, as well - ‘ The Student Theatre Guild and Department of Theatre present Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot at 8 p.m. in Harriman Theatre Studio tonight and tomorrow.

New-found freaks For those unfamiliar with the usual freak crowd of fantasy and science fiction writers, Damon Knight includes stories by Mark Twain and Stephen Vincent Benet. Twain's story is one of the few good ones to be found in the book and it sheds a great deal of light on Twain's character and religious beliefs. Benet's story sheds nothing. It is called "The King of Cats" and it introduces a musical conductor who conducts with his long cat-like tail. On the epic scale there is a piece of literary rambling called "Phantas." It was written by one Oliver Onions; knowing this does not help matters in the least. It is a little paradox revolving around a Moby Dick/Ancient Mariner wave that has a tendency to splash the reader in the eye, thus making him blind for the next five sentences. Allegorical meaning can be suspected, but finding it is difficult. The story was picked by Damon Knight; therefore, the darkness lies in him. This is the usual situation with him, and he shall never really be understood. On the whole, this anthology lacks all the values of synergy that most anthologies thrive upon. The stories themselves are not unusual, nor are they complementary The Golden Road represents nothing more than a feeble attempt to follow the path towards wealth, or at least a little pocket cash. Someone has obviously stepped in Knight's soap. —Linda Michaels �small screen The Questor Tapes (Star Treat) For the first time in many weeks the television presented a program full of humor and sumbolism, and geared toward the adult, intellectual mind. The Questor Tapes a proposed series written and created by Gene Roddenberry and Gene Coon (the executive producers from Star Trek ) parallels in many ways Shelley's Frankenstein. The major difference is that the human-like "monster" (android) Questor, with a bionic-plasma brain, was created especially to save mankind. In the movie, Questor, excellently portrayed by Robert Foxworth, is literally searching for himself and his reason for existence. With the help of his "friend" and maker, Jerry Robinson (played by Mike Farrell) Questor roams the earth looking for his creator, with the U. S. secret service on his trail. He is considered a machine; one step above the level of a slave, liberated to the status of friendship. Questor yearns to feel. he is almost too emotional to be an android. The plot of The Questor Tapes, although fantastic, is feasible. Questor is not a superman, tike man, he is vulnerable and capable of mistakes. The idea presented by Roddenberry is thought-provoking. Imagine a series of beings descendent from UUAlB an android set on the earth by extreterestrial creatures to watch over man until the end of his childhood. Conceive of a world protected from the fear of self-destruction by the human species. The character of Questor was well developed. Consideration was given to his somewhat jerky movements while his voice carries a quality which one might expect from a computer (if it could talk). As a new creation, Questor's knowledge is not complete and incorrect assumptions he makes are often amusing. At times the show was almost too trite or corny, on the level of Marcus Welby. Yet, they can be forgiven for bringing emotions to the screen by the high-quality enjoyment which results.

(M. Wolf) ! Most salesmen use a degree of psychology in their sales pitches. A salesman may come on as super-sincere. He may attempt to you mystify with elaborate technical jargon. He may also play upon your natural desire to please him or your desire to feel that you are making a shrewd purchase. Remember that no matter how knowledgeable a his advice is nearly always based upon a profit motive and, therefore, always salesman v appears, suspect. It is important that if you have equipment which is heavily and readily discounted (such as AR, Dyna, or Sherwood all fine names, incidentally) you will not be allowing the retailer a large profit margin. For this reason it is likely that a salesman will make deprecatory remarks about your choices as a prelude to pushing components that earn him a larger profit. Several types of "pushed" equipment are chosen — 3. Infalted List Prices Many more than quality or component manufacture reputation. If a manufacturer sets an artificially high list price on his equipment, retailers can offer large discounts and still reap a hefty profit The only way to be sure of getting a fair discount is to gauge local mail-order by discounts quotations or the listings in Consumer Guide. attracted are discounts customers by 4. Poorly Distributed Imports A heavily pushed item among some small dealers is the high-priced import (usually European) that has only limited distribution in the U.S. In some cases, namely Decca and Quad equipment, the components are superior and worth the additional cost. But more often, there highly-touted brands are merely the continental equivalents of lower-priced and widely distributed components that are well-known in the States. In terms of price, service, and reliability, the well-distributed item is usually a better buy. examined below: MUS 312 Master Composer TTh 11:30-1 00 p.m. 4 cr. 101 Baird Overview of the symphony, concerto and quartet in Mozart & Haydn (J.

If you receive an overwhelming endorsement for seemingly unspectacular equipment that is neither price-controlled nor house brand, you can assume that push money is behind it.

"David, hand me those wire cutters, will ya?" Steve then proceeded to cut the different colored wires that comprised the burglar alarm system at Macy's. David quietly read aloud the sequence of colored wires that had to be snipped. Graham kept a vigilant look out over the dark, damp back alley. It took Steve almost 40 minutes to finally unhook the burglar alarm. You see, Steve had once played electric guitar, and so he thought he knew all about electrical systems. "Graham, come over here and give me a hand with this door," David whispered cautidbsly. David knew a lot about doors and what holds them you know, nuts and bolts and the like. He used together to be quite a nut himself in his heyday. Graham and David at last were able to dismantle the heavy, iron door that led into Macy's stock room. Steve grabbed his tool chest and followed David and Graham into the cold, dark room. Graham lead the way through the stock room and then on to the first floor. Graham was picked to memorize the floor plan since he was the only one who ever really knew where he was going. Steve barked out the orders: "David, you go to Men's Wear, and Graham, you go to Appliances." "And where are you going?" Graham asked — suspiciously in his English accent. "I'm going to the Jewelry displays, of course," Steve answered in a softer, apologetic tone.

Walsh left Gang to strike out on a solo career, taking with '; ' :, ,n-v' , V’V . ; ■ j!', - . • 'wm. . 1 iVkV&l ’LiJrs^-^Stfkyi "Oh no you're not," David said. "You're going to the Record Department like we planned," Graham said to Steve. Steve stared back angrily, but finally gave in. Steve, you understand, was used to getting his way in the old days. Steve, David and Graham used to be the core of a famous band until the vinyl shortage hit home, and only a few select artists were able to continue to record. Vinyl was now worth millions, and only a very few wealthy people could afford to buy a record. Steve walked into the small Record Department and started to look around. He immediately saw the "Platinum Oldies" sign and walked over to the record stack underneath the sign. Thumbing through the oldies he saw records by the Band, the Beatles, Dylan and others, all in alphabetical order. He finally got down to "Y" and noticed a copy of a Neil Young album. Time Fades Away. Steve took the album out of its place and carefully examined the back. "Wow, David and Graham had helped Nell out on this one. Yeah, I remember this one. I couldn't help out because I was under contract," Steve whispered to himself. "A live album with cuts taken from his concert tour. Kind of a weird album, if I recall. Neil was always a perfectionist and insisted on careful, precise studio work. Then he puts out a live album with songs on it that are more autobiographical than anything," Steve thought to himself. "And Neil was always pretty hidden about things, especially his past, and here he comes on singing songs like "Don't Be Denied" and "Time Fades Away." "L.A." and "Yonder Stands the Sinner" turned out to be only fair him his Jeff Beck stylized guitar ringings and nasal vocal twangings. Walsh's departure paved the way for a refortified group that has added two members to pick up the musical slack created by Joe's absence. Tommy Bolin handles guitar chores, with an occassional assist on moog synthesizer, while Roy Kenner assumes lead vocal responsibilities. Born of this union is the latest James Gang product entitled Bang. Its offerings provide a mixed bag of results which tilt towards the unfavorable. Bang is a plstter of derivative middle American rock 'n roll that serves up more than it can deliver. Bolin's guitar assaults have a certain tastiness which refuses to degenerate into mere offensive gimmickery. Yet too often the songs fizzle into nothing more than vehicles for Bolin's axe exploits, which are fine but, appear to be an easy device to terminate an underdeveloped musical motif. Kenner's vocal renderings possess a fuller sound than Walsh's did, but his voice is ultimately unidentifiable, in the sense that it resembles a curious hybrid of other voices in other rock bands muted into anonymity. "Standing in the Rain" is the cut where everything miraculously jells for the James Gang. Kenner's vocal surges with unexpected energetic enthusiasm, ably complemented by Bolin's flashy guitar bits, which are nicely double—tracked'. Jim Fox and Dale Peters (the original Gang members) provide a raunchy rhythm section that anchors the song with a funky foundation. It's the Herbie Hancock Headhunters (Columbia) Herbie Hancock's latest offering on Columbia records at times tasty and inspired; at times monotonous and insipid, far below the capabilities of such a talented musician. Headhunters is the name and electronic keyboards is the game. Boasting the use of electric piano, clavinet and synthesizer, Hancock reaches into the contemporary bag of transistors and sockets to produce a variance of tonalities and rhythmic interplay that should keep you waiting and wanting. The album and the group use Hancock as the foundation, that is, the group seems to be at its best only while Hancock is the main force behind the musical attack. This album cannot be judged at one sitting. Its impact comes only after the third or fourth listening and even then it's difficult to judge the complexities and simplicities of what you've just heard. Is the sameness of the rhythm section a front for the complex meanderings of the soloist, or is it a complex part of the whole, that whole being comprised of the rhythm section's own melodis, and is a contradiction — f rhythmic, interpretations of the melody? Hancock's approach to the formulation of this album seems to rest in the two-fold interpretation of the title. It wants us to consider the meaning of "head." In the strict, musical sense, the "head" was the melody that was to be played or interpreted by the instrumentalist or vocalist. In common usage, "head" means our concept of self. Hancock has taken and combined these concepts of headhunting «nd has attempted to find our musical head, both melodic and self, with a cornucopia of chordal and rhythmic progressions. He extends this search through the use of polyphonies, two-handed chordal progressions, while the rhythm section attunes itself to poly-rhythmic stabs and flashes. The most blatant example of this approach is the opening tune "Chameleon." As the title foreshadows, the concept of change. Hancock's group changes moods through the use of smoothly polished tempos and chord progressions. This might seem to be an innovation, but the use of these concepts of changing rhythmic and chordal progressions has been happening since the mid- and late-fifties by Monk and Mingus.

All of a sudden all the lights flashed on in the store. Steve immediately dropped down behind the record counter. He clutched Time Fades Away to his chest in anticipation of what lay ahead. His only chance was to escape, he thought. He started crawling on his hands and knees towards the nearest exit door. Suddenly a voice over the PA system broke the empty department store's silence. "Mr. Stills, this is the police. Come to the front of the store and surrender yourself. The store is surrounded so you can't get away. We've already caught your two partners." "Guess I didn't quite disassemble that burglar alarm right," he sadly thought to himself. —Sheldon Kamieniecki perfect number to blare from the battered radio of your '57 Chevy when cruising for burgers. The rapture of the rocking merriment that sweats from "Standing in the Rain" unfortunatly seems alien to the remainder of the disc. "Alexis," a soft, slow ballad that transforms into a guitar rocker, never supplies the adequate tension to justify the mood. 'The Devil Is Singing Our Song'' is reminiscent of Free, but the tune is marred by a forced and predictable psuedo-blues style. A flirtation with a cappella is poorly realized in "Rather Be Alone With You," which falters because the vocal nuances employed are decidedly too pedestrian. "Mystery" flounders in a sea of confusion highlighted by cloying strings and inconsequential moog ramblings. The James Gang's Bang is the attempt by an American rock 'n roll band raised and reared on "Funk 49" to come to some terms with new group identity and changing trends in rock music. It would perhaps be wisest for the James Gang to orient their musical sound with mean, lean arrangements that smoke fire (like "Standing in the Rain") and embellish bhem with vocal layerings and interplays. Their album finally disappoints due to a severe shortage of topnotch material, and the mediocre tunes have only their inoffensiveness to recomment them. As it stands now, the new James Gang album is more of a whimper than a bang. —C.P. Parkas Hancock's addition has been the modernization of these concepts through the use of the electronic modes currently available. A better example of this electronic adaptation of the Monk/Mingus thesis could be seen in that refreshing symphonette / Sing the Body Electric (by Weather Report). Hancock's roots, as is the case for most jazz musicians today, rest in bop. Now if you're going to contend that the last bop solo was the piano work on Charles Lloyd's Forest Flower: Sunrise/Sunset, then give a relisten to Hancock's phrasing and accentuation throughout this album. It flashes back to "Monk's Dream" and emerges in '73 with Hancock's "Headhunt." Headhunters is the continuation of Hancock's journey to find his musical self. When that journey will end, I hope we'll never know, for in that search to find himself, he includes us, and that awareness of being is what this album is all about. It's a statement of intent. It's telling us where Herbie Hancock is going, and what's more, the fact that he's asking us to come along. —Bear �Howlin' Wolf The Backdoor Wolf (Chets) Muddy Waters Can't Get No Grindin (Chest) Well kiddies. Chess has issued two more chapters in the musical lives of McKinley Morganfield and Chester Burnett. The former entitled Can't Get No Grindin and the latter The Backdoor Wolf. Now, what can you say about these two men and their music that hasn't been said before? Usually We get the same questions, answered wi, same pat phrases. We could always do a clinical research essay on before the age of 12. Do these kind of questions reflect the importance of the man or his recorded output? I don't know, simply because most reviews tend to get hung up on their roots and the overall importance thereof. We could always define the blues! So what do you get for your five bucks simple, good old Chicago "electric blues" that basic boogie thgt all those white bands, English and American, have copped? But is it really "Copped" material? Maybe. Shrug. These two albums are the next chapters in the recorded novels of two great blues artists. The problem arises from the fact that musically what we have has been "institutionalized" into what we know generically as Chicago blues. Its the sameness of lyrics and melody that helps us to find continuation of life through this know generically as Chicago blues. It's the sameness of lyrics and nicotine N. alcohol music. It's audioexistentialism. I'm not about to try and convince you that the blues are involved in philosophical nicotine n' alcohol music. It's audioexistentialism. I'm'not about is the fact that these albums, and AH blues recordings, present what is the basis of all music: the emotion of living. The Blues are feelings, and no matter how many times you hear the Wolf using the same melody or Muddy using those patented lyrics, what they're expressing is just another set of emotional remembrances for us to ponder. The Blues and their exponents have the quality of universalim that no other musical form has yet achieved.

That's what these two records are about, the extension of what the Wolf and Muddy have been feeling. Of the two I prefer Backdoor Wolf. There's one thing blues doesn't need and that's electric harpsicord, and the first side of Muddys' Ip has alot of clarinet which sounds just like a harpsicord too bad Otis Spann had to go. Wolf's music has always been rated below Waters' and because of this has developed a certain amount of internal paranoia. I always liked underdogs anyway. They're both good sides solid Chicago blues. Either one will fill your needs. The recordings are good, as far as clarity and mix. Chess has always done a good job in that area. So step on out and pick up on 'em. Remember Muddy and the Wolf ain't immoral and they know it, so they're working extra hard for ya.

Jutt at important, our judgement of work is made in relationship to our catalogue of images in all areas of projection. As it was put to me by a local gallery director: "The purpose of a gallery it to present that Art which is saleable to the public." by Bob Muffoletto Spectrum Art Critic Photography functioning as a in Buffalo is non-existent. What does exist is a long-legged, confused octopus. The trunk containing th« ideation of the word photography. Its arms, which dangle and loom over us like our own transforming shadow, are the far-reaching expressions of the photographic media. Its range is from the professional fancy-dancer to the sixty second wizard. Photography, as a personal expression of a universal concept, has not revealed itself fully in Buffalo. To explain further: experience Dave Heath's slide tape show. Album, (that is, if someone at Media Study will show it.) To add salt to my distilled water, I attended an opening at the Gallery Without Walls on Franklin Street. The images were those of Russell Drisch. First, a round of applause for the Gallery for attempting to show photographic work and second to Mr. Drisch for being a fine technician and commercial photographer. His product being a series of hand-colored photographs averaging in size of about 20 x 40 inches. The series contains several heads of cabbage, celery, a tricycle, and others including many peppers. Mr. Drisch expresses his sensous mental images to us without hesitation. community Hues The objects (mainly colored soft pink To understand that statement would likely make Steiglitz open his own gallery which he did. Photography is not shown because it also is not a saleable item (I am not separating art from photography). As a - result of this, the public is robbed of its truthful shadow.

They lack interest (over time) and fail to say anything coloring different, new or interesting photographs were done as far back as the 1850's, in an attempt to copy nature. (And let us not forget Ed Weston and his peppers.) Interesting work with the coloring of — photographs in this area is being done by Barbara ReVelle, who is presently of the faculty at Buffalo State College. Drisch might do well to speak with her. In an overall context, Drisch’s work with images can represent whatever you think they are. As members of the viewing aucience, it may be time to question what we are Realizing the financial problems of a. showplace, the concern for saleable items is understandable. But there is a need to become responsible, to shoulder the effects and understand the outcome of displaying policies. This responsibility must be shared by the gallery director, the artist and the viewer alike. The responsibility is indeed ours. We must contend with the fact that the Art of today reflects the culture of tomorrow. A giddy mood The anatomy of language starts with letters, then slowly evolves (It has occasionally been claimed that The Prodigal Sun is dull, dry, and lacking in a steady humor department. While it may still be dull and dry, at least we can now boast a regular humor column. Jeffrey C., a UB alumnus, has no pretentions about being a great columnist. "I'm just a regular Joe." he says, "who happens to know more about humor than anoyone in the universe. Than anyone on my block, anyway." —JB) by Jeffrey C. Scofield Spectrum Arts Staff Perhaps you have noticed that a great majority of printed matter is composed of small symbols, called "letters." The function of these letters of the alphabet is to represent sounds. The letter H, for instance, represents the sound of a car door being slammed. Just about everyone has heard by now that we get our word "alphabet" (such as it is) from the names of those first two Greek letters, "alpha" and "beta." The Greek looked upon these little dancing creatures of their alphabet as more than just pets (more like members of the family), and therefore gave these names to them. It is as though we were to call out letters "Alan," "Beth," "Camille," and so on. If we were to use this system, then words would become no more than lists of friendly-sounding names. "Camille, Alan, Thomas," would say the schoolchild learning to spell. "Today we learned all about Susan and Harold," your daughter might tell you, and if you were quick you would understand. In most known languages, words are made up of "roots," with other parts (called "leaves") added on, usually just as an afterthought. For instance, the word "repairman" is made up of "repair," familiar to speakers of English in the phrase "He repaired his car himself," and "man," as in the phrase "Then he had to call the man to come and tow it." Sometimes whole sentences are built this way, bit by bit, as in "Some piano players play player pianos some." Now words were not always in the sensible form that we have them in today, all brushed and neat. People have been hard at work for centuries to bring them into manageable form. Before the dawn of recorded history, all words were begun with a little cough, represented in the alphabet by an asterisk (*). Because of this, the words for "cough" and for "Speak" were the same word. This made it difficult for the doctors of the time to tell when people were too sick to go to work, which resulted in very little actual work getting done. The amount of coughing, however, was enormous. Later, this "cough prefix" was eliminated as too much of a bother, and people really got down to business. And this led to the invention of civilization as we know it, the rise and fall of Rome, and the opaque projector. In her book Water Moccasins Are Not, Moccasins, Elizabeth HeaRtless makes, I think, a similar point when she says "... and the same is true of the so-called 'sea-cow,' which is in fact no cow at all. (It is some sort of fish, t suppose. It must be, if it is to survive for very long at sea.)" Heartless has brought sober reasoning to bear on the difference between what something is, and what it isn't, a distinction much passed over in this day of heavy travel. Perhaps, if we would let her, Elizabeth would lead us by the hand into the 'Land of What Is What.' Then again, maybe she wouldn't. At any rate, it is obvious that everything is something. Further complications are caused when people refuse to say what they mean. Let us say, for instance, that you wish to tell your friend, "John is eager to please." However, just as you are about to say this, you see John coming around the corner in a black mood. Knowing that this is the last thing John wants to hear, you say instead, "John is easy to please," which is just the sort of thing jbL Tippy’s Taco House Mexican Foods S&JfiS~60 oz. pitcher John likes to hear; he is always bragging about how easygoing he is. And the whole system of language, slaved over by scholars for millennia, goes down the drain. For language to work, you have to say what you mean. History records the tragic case of cryptologist Vincent Carstairs, who had trained himself to say "lunchbox" instead of "atom bomb," in the interest of national security. One day he showed up for work carrying an atom bomb instead of a lunchbox. On being questioned, he could not say how he came to have it, and was released. Driving home that night, he missed his turn and accidentally drove his car down a flight of stairs. Although unhurt, he was never again the same man. He was much better, actually. cAURUM HANDCRAFTED AND ANTIQUE JEWHIW of beer $1.2o 838-3900 2351 Sheridan Drive !OS3aAAMOOP>VBMUE/ 883-6786/TUE-SAE/ HOO-7WO/ NATIVE AMERICAN STUDIES COURSE AMS 285—The natural world us, the legal world: an examination of conflicting cultures (Tues.-Thurs. 2-4) is under-enrolled & accepting students-NOTE-that it is desirable, but not necessary to have been exposed to the native perspective in a previous AMS course.

We regret the omission of the reviewer’s name. To the Editor: After I read, reread and reread again your first article on U.B.’s Experimental Colleges, it seems to me that your description is distorted, omitting important aspects of the Colleges. For me to rebut each description (and lack of one) would be to over-extend my allotted space, but I will exemplify my claims. As one of the first students in College A and later co-ordinator after Dr. Snell’s resignation, I have never witnessed or heard of any member of the College “trying to proselyte youngsters in the U.B. area to become revolutionaries.” Your claim that at the time of the “shakeup, members channeled its energies into more community accepted efforts such as helping the handicapped” is absolutely wrong on its timing. As director of Community Service Projects for the College (including those working with the handicapped), I know they began with College A’s inception in 1968, since at that time, I originated the first such program Communicative Creativity Workshop for the Handicapped. What perhaps riled me most about your article is that it left out the most important concept learning, creativity, people deciding what they are interested in and how they can best persue it. As a currerit faculty member in the School of Health Education, and doctoral candidate in Curriculum Development Faculty of Educational Studies, I have had the opportunity of numerous rich and rewarding experiences. However, none has contributed as much to me as a person as my association with the Colleges did. - - Bambii Abelson Kertzman Director of Communicative Creativity School of Health Education Benedict Arnold award To the Editor: I would like to announce the presentation of the Benedict Arnold Award to Jonathan Reichart, chairman of the Faculty Senate Committee oh the Colleges. He has demonstrated the uncanny ability to misrepresent the facts, distort evaluations, lie to colleagues, perpetuate distrust and otherwise subvert the faith that members of the Collegiate System had in his integrity. His unforeseen candor in blatantly disregarding his own pleas for “honesty, cooperation and a common goal” earn him this unusual award. Let him wear it in good faith, and let this achievement be added to his career file next to his “Destroyed Academic Innovation for the Most Brownie Points” award.

All good things will soon come to an end, of by Barry Kaplan The past few months have seen a spate of articles, reports and commentary concerning the “Energy Crisis.” Most of these literary and visual disgressions have centered upon the statistics of the crisis; the usual cause-and-effect mechanisms and the exciting “human interest” angles. A few enterprising journalists, however, have speculated upon the effect of this crisis pertaining to our lifestyle and entertainment habits. A recent article in Time noted a decrease in mechanical entertainment, e.g., motorboats, mechanical games, etc., and the rise of so-called course, Friday, 25 January 1974 Editor-in-Chief Managing Editor Howie Kurtz — — ... — old-fashioned entertainment; Monopoly, walking, et al. One journalist noticed that the demand for birth control pills has skyrocketed since the beginning of the energy crisis. It is the above-mentioned factor that will probably have the most important effect on the American people rich or poor, young or old, we all ball. Now that the energy pretty or ugly crisis has begun to restore to the American people the old-fashioned pleasures, there can be no doubt that this could revolutionize our entire sexual morality. People who used to condemm the joys of sex when the act was not intended to bring a child into the world will soon swing over to the other side when they realize that sex is serving a very useful function for the state. Just imagine . . . instead of Johnny Carson . . . you commit fellatio, instead of electric blankets, you all in the name of have a group-grope patriotism and energy consumption. This increased use of birth control will mean that even the most prudish will do their share in order to keep warm without using precious fuel. Just imagine the new pickup lines at the local “meat markets:” Hi honey, wanna share some heat? . . . Hey baby, wanna fuck for economy: independence?” Now that fornication will meet middle-class America’s innate need to accomplish something, and now that Onan’s seed will not be spilled in vain, sex will have a utilitarian image much like chopping wood for the fireplace or shoveling coal for the furnace. It seems as if sex would be the best way to meet the energy crisis what other form of entertainment can create its own heat (when you ball you could turn down the thermostat), burn up unsightly fat, use no electricity, and allow you to meet people? Of course there will be drawbacks. The electric dildo industry and its allied cousins will take a different plunge; although they might lose money, the lack of these artificial contrivances might help its former jaded users rediscover the nitty gritty of the sex act. In the frantic search for a good partner, many couples might now both looking for a longer-lasting break up mate. Soon the in-status symbol will be the and (of couple that can fuck the longest course) produce the most heat. Most likely some ingenious entrepreneur will dream up the idea of a fornication marathon and hope it becomes an Olympic event. Although Mark Spitz might have disliked training for his gold medals, it’s quite possible that future Olympics contestants might — — 1 ... - - enjoy their training. Of course, Bobby Riggs and fellow Americans In these times of great hardship and travail, your government has attempted to utilize every method possible in order to alleviate the Fuel Crisis. Right now, our scientists have been working day and night in order to devise new methods to cut consumption, and at the same time, create new sources of energy. One night two scientists realized that the solution to this crisis lay right under our very noses. Immediately they invented a new bed, which through constant and rhythmic motions can produce enough energy to power one home. This brilliant device harnessed to the proper machinery could, if used by enough people, produce all of America’s energy needs. However, we need your cooperation in order to utilize this device. Our plan is to set up giant “Fornication for Freedom” Halls of 100,000 beds each, where Americans can come and produce energy.” If this fantasy was put in practice, you can imagine the results. Dick, Pat, Trish, Ed, Julie and of course David, could demonstrate their patriotism on national television. People would be encouraged to ball, stipends could be given to those who gave the most of themselves to the country (blood donors would be relegated to second place), virgins would be considered unpatriotic, and celibacy a crime. Everyone, hetero and gay alike, could mix together freely and show themselves to others. This fantasy, like other American dreams, eventually will crumble and fade soon as reality sets in, and the sexual act looses its mystique. After volunteerism fails as a tactic, the government would probably set up a compulsory schedule for each American citizen above twelve years of age. This schedule involving all Americans would meet all of our energy needs; however, it would soon create new subversive groups. The youth of America, who would probably bear the burden of our energy would soon object to this production, mechanistic national model. They would attempt to get deferments. This movement would soon be aided by effete snobs and impudent liberals who just couldn’t get it up and rationalized their failure upon some bullshit like individual rights and civil liberties. This underground movement would attempt to keep their virginity despite the laws, or make love in private in order to avoid government service. They would demonstrate their opposition in' mass demonstrations where masturbation would be practiced and copulation - Vol. 24, No. 46 middle-class joy and utility can be combined.

The gripes about procedure follow more from This is the first of two parts dealing with the deficiencies of our deliberative bodies, notably the Faculty-Senate and the Student Assembly. As one who has observed academic politics in much the same manner as a medical student regards his cadaver something ill even beyond the ministrations of such creatures as freshman medical students and collegiate journalists I find it interesting that in many respects the Faculty-Senate is no better than the Student Assembly. - — Tuesday’s Faculty-Senate meeting devoted to the proposed Collegiate Prospectus showed that the Senate, presumably a body of greater maturity and intellectual capacity than the Student Assembly, shares with that last-named circus some common problems. The conventional wisdom among too many of my colleagues is that both bodies are stifled by parliamentary procedure which is used to manipulate affairs to the satisfaction of the powers that be. Bunk. More mature Film 9 — misunderstanding and frustration than reasonable consideration. Both the Faculty-Senate and the Student Assembly share three basic problems: First,, both the Faculty-Senate and the Student Assembly are part-time bodies trying to do a full-time job. Second, in both bodies a disheartening number of morons refuse to do their homework. Third, on important issues the fears and emotions of interested parties make a reasonable settlement a task for statesmen of far greater capacity than either body is likely to attract. The debate over a proposed amendment to the Faculty-Senate Colleges Committee’s majority report that would change the membership of the chartering body [for details see the story on page three] demonstrated the futility of trying to hammer out practical, detailed reforms in a mass body composed of individuals with other duties. Although I first spoke in favor of the Colleges’ Conference Theatre proposal, 1 became convinced in the. course of the debate that neither the amendment nor the original proposal was adequate. Several Senators raised cogent objections to specific problems in the Colleges’ proposal. But from experience watching the Student Assembly I knew the sensible course would not be taken. What is the sensible course? It is obviously not trying to work out a fair, detailed, compromise solution in a room full of people who want to go home. A full-time legislative body can indulge in the protracted horsetrading and politicking that is essential to passing reasonable legislation. In a part-time body this is, of course, impossible. In consequence, both the Faculty-Senate and the Student Assembly can do little more than react vaguely to proposals submitted by their relevant committees. At the last Faculty-Senate meeting, the sensible course would have been not to vote at the end of the discussion (Here 1 must compliment Chairman Gil Moore for his good sense in judging when discussion becomes pointless and keeping order while stopping it. I hope the far more abrasive chairman-elect, George Hochfield, can do as well), but to send the Senators and Colleges representatives who raised substantive objections to another room and to tell them to come back in half an hour with a new amendment while the Senate discussed other matters. The same problem occurs year after year in the Student Assembly at budget time. The annual spectacle of the Assembly trying to rewrite a budget on the floor of the Assembly is so familiar and so pathetic that I could report accurately on such a meeting without attending. The point is that the main bodies should not waste time with detailed compromises. The full membership of the Senate and the Assembly should poke holes in the committees’ original proposals and raise ideas that the committee should take back with them when they rewrite their proposals. The committees should then incorporate and reconcile the major objections (after meeting with spokespersons for various positions) and present suitably altered legislation. Reasonable settlements should then be much easier.

However, a spokesman for the Educational Commissioner said such formal action would be “highly unlikely.” A New Paltz public relations spokesman, Charles Pepper, denied the Regents’ charges. “In our view,” Pepper said, “we don’t qperatc segregated facilities at all.” He claimed the Regents report which cited New Paltz apparently made reference to a so-called “third-world dormitory” on the campus. Pepper said the dormitory had some white students living in it The New York State Board of Regents has called for an end to segregated dormitories. The Board called upon Education Commissioner Ewald Nyquist to stop what is termed a “small number” of colleges and universities from segregating minority students in dormitories, as well as in any other “facilities or programs.” The New York Times named Cornell University, the State University at New Paltz, Sarah Lawrence College in Bronxville, and Rensalaer Polytechnic Q; When should I apply for financial aid?

He said Housing makes a “conscious effort to insure that dorms are not segregated.” Additionally, Mr. Boyce said none of the dorms on this campus were predominantly composed of third world students nor other minority students. Mr. Boyce described this University’s housing “Returning dormitory residents get system: preference to the building they want to live in. A certain number of beds in each hall are reserved for new students, who select their preferences on the basis of a lottery.” Mr. Boyce said: “If enough students of one particular group requested a dorm, then conceivably, it could be segregated. But the chances for that happening are very small.” Voluntary complaince sought In order to eliminate the segregated dormitories, the State Education Department will negotiate with the various colleges, attempting to have them “voluntarily comply” with the Education Department’s ruling. Ultimately, should a particular school not comply, various administrative or economic sanctions could be imposed upon it.

About 400 persons stood at the base of the state Capitol’s front steps for more than an hour as state and local members of the “right to life” movement urged passage of a constitutional amendment banning abortions. The rally, and smaller observances held elsewhere in the state, coincided with the first anniversary of the U.S. Supreme Court ruling , that abortion was constitutional. Last year, the state legislature amid a storm of controversy adopted a bill repealing New York State’s abortion law.

Bull hoopsters whip Cornell and put stop to record losing streak Sophomore guard Giry. Domzalski exploded for 22 points, and handed out eleven assists to lead the basketball Bulls to their first win of the season, a 91-76 mauling of Cornell Wednesday night at Clark Hall. The victory snapped a twelve gstae losing* streak, longest in the Bulls’ annals, dating back to last season’s finale against crosstown rival Buffalo State. The The game marked head caoch Leo Richardson’s first triumph as varsity mentor at Buffalo, while the loss left the Bid Red, who were out to avenge last year’s three point loss at Cornell, with an equally disappointing 2-11 record. “I think we’ve played better ball games and lost,” remarked Richardson, “but Tm happy to win.” Buffalo opened an early 17-11 lead, but couldn’t add to it, as Cornell came back to knot the score up at 31-31 with six minutes remaining in the first half. Unlike other games this year, when it was a Bull tradition to collapse after leading and enter the locker room at halftime on the short end of the score, the Bulls outscored Cornell 10-3 to take a 41-43 lead at intermission. Richardson’s “pride and joy”, reserve center Jim Slayton, sparked Buffalo in the second half. Behind Slayton’s seven rebounds and five locked shots, the Bulls opened a lead which grew to 19 points. Slayton played only sixteen minutes in the second half before fouling out. With three minutes remaining, he retired with a standing ovation from the sparse crowd. Buffalo secured a slim 56-54 margin on the boards, Buffalo swimmers led by freshman center Mike Jones’ 13 rebounds. The Bulls tossed in 30 assists, tying their, one game record, and Domzalski’s 11 was one short of the record he shares with three other players. Despite being given fewer free throws than the opposition for the twelfth time in twelve games, the Bulls outscored Cornell from the free throw line. Buffalo cashed in on 17 or 19 charity tosses, including 14 of 15 in the second half as opposed to a 12 for 23 free throw slate for the Big Red. The improvement by Slayton somewhat lessend the impact of losing junior center Tom Tobias for the season. Tobias was declared academically ineligible. The Bulls travel downtown to Memorial Auditorium tomorrow to face a strong (7—4) Albany squad in the first game of a doubleheader. The Bulls lead the series with Albany, 14-1, and hope to carry a two game winning streak into Washington Tuesday to face Catholic University in the first of a two game road trip. Buffalo travels to Fairfield Wednesday before returning home to face Colgate in Memorial Auditorium next Saturday night. could lead to a long week for the A loss to young Bulls, and could mean a long wait for Richardson’s second varsity triumph. Sports rap end two year streak Coaches to discuss strategy by Steve Lustig Spectrum Staff Writer UCLA saw their basketball winning streak broken last Saturday, another streak also fell as the swimming Bulls scored their first victory in over two years. Buffalo defeated Binghamton, 72-41 in Clark Hall. The Bulls last victory was over Slippery Rock on December 15, 1971. Much of the Bulls’ improvement could be traced to their extra work done at the swim forum in Fort Lauderdale during Captain Scott the holidays. ‘The reason we Benjamin noted: because of the workouts won was Florida. We three had workouts in a day and we really worked like hell.” While the Bulls did plenty of swimming in Flordia, the Colonial swimmers had been out of action during the semester recess. While many had expected a close match, (Binghamton won last year by one point), the Bulls won the first three events to pull out to a While commanding 23-2 lead Buffalo cut almost a minute off their 400 yard medley relay time as the team of Bill Perciak, Joe handheld, Benjamin, and Ralph Hoffman scored an easy victory in 4:23.4. Keil Wurl continued his excellent diving as he set a new pool and university record for the one meter required dive. “Excited” would be the best way to describe Coach Bill Sanford and assistant Craig Ritz after the meet. Sanford noted: “I think we’re on our way. We’re in a rebuilding period, but I’m sure this won’t be our last victory. The trip to Florida gave us a cohesiveness that we didn’t have before. We were in much better condition.” The Bulls host Brockport in Clark Hall at 2 p.m. tomorrow. Sanford commented: “I expect a very tight meet.

Students will have a chance to ask these questions and others at the “Bulls Sports Rap.” Sports Information Director Dick Baldwin explained: “The Sports Rap is being set up to give a students an opportunity to meet coaches outside of game conditions. We’d like to get a go-between involving the teams and students. There can be discussions on rule interpretations, offense and defense, and general strategy involving the particular sport of each coach. It will not be limited to their particular team but discussions on the sport in general,” added Baldwin. The “Sports Rap” is being established by the University coaches, students, The Spectrum sports editor Dave Geringer and Warren Breisblatt, sports editor of Ethos. Baldwin noted that the program is starting on an experimental basis and the decision on whether it will continue will be up to the students. He indicated if enough student support was shown, eventually all the coaches would participate in the program. While some of the more popular sports might be discussed specifically at one meeting, that Baldwin said, “There could also be discussions on golf, tennis, swimming and others. Maybe we could also discuss pro sports and women’s sports.” Baldwin also noted that some highlights from previous games might be shown during the sessions. “When we had football here at UB, we used to show highlights on Mondays in Haas Lounge. If there is enough support for the program we might be able to do something similar,” said Baldwin. The first meeting will be held next Wednesday at 12:15 in Room 337 Norton Hall. Coach Ed Wright, of the hockey Bulls, will be on hand to discuss hockey. Also scheduled is Leo Richardson (head coach of the varsity basketball team) who will speak on Wednesday, February 6 at 12:15. Wrestling coach Ed Michael will appear on February 13. All meetings will be held in Room 337 Norton Hall. New extramural program feature 5 local tournaments 9 ‘ An innovative program in athletics, intramural “extramurals,” will take place during the next two months. The program is the brainchild of Buffalo intramural director Bill Monkarsh. The extramural program, bringing together student athletes from Buffalo, Buffalo State, Erie Community College and Canisius will feature five tournaments. Three-man basketball, one-on-one basketball, mixed doubles basketball (two-on-two mixed teams), five-man basketball and coed volleyball will be the featured sports. The preliminaries for these tournaments will be held by the four competing schools, with the semi-finals taking place at Buffalo State. The finals will be held at Memorial Auditorium before and at halftime of Buffalo Braves basketball games. The program is being sponsored by Genesee Beer, who will provide jerseys, trophies and officials for the Auditorium contests. “Schaefer Beer did this with the Knicks and the schools in New York,” said Monkarsh. “1 called Genesee Beer and they went for it and i went to the Braves and they went for it. I think that this is a great thing for the kids and a great thing for the schools. We are looking to have this annually,” Monkarsh added. The program, which is open only to full-time undergraduate students (ID cards will be required), draw its will participants from the Buffalo campus using a variety of methods. Preliminaries for the three-man basketball and one-on-one basketball will be conducted tomorrow. The one-on-one tournament will be split into two divisions (5-10 and under and 5-11 and over). The first thirty-two participants entering the gym for the one-on-one contest will be allowed to compete, while the first sixteen teams appearing for the three-man basketball tourney will be allowed to enter. Coed volleyball and mixed doubles will draw its participants from coed volleyball and basketball leagues which have already been established. The intramural basketball champion will advance to the semi-finals of the extramural tournament at Buffalo State. ***************************** J Republic Day of India (Cultural Program) Fillmore Room — Norton Hall Saturday, Jan. 26 at 6:00 p.m. REFRESHMENTS WILL BE SERVED I Sponsored by the India Student Assoc. and The International Student Committee * There are positions open for student representatives to the STUDENT ATHLETIC REVIEW BOARD.

The victory gave the Bulls a 12-8 log for the season, while RIT squared their mark at - 6-6. The Bulls started quickly, scoring three times in a span of 2:25 in the first period to take an invincible lead. Captain John Stranges scored twice and added one assist to give him the lead in point production for the season. Stranges’ 43 points tops linemate Mike Klym’s total by a single point. Buffalo freshman Bruce Hadsell tangles with Kent State's Denny Fellepelle in the 142 pound match. Fellepelle won 20-10. Wrestling Sometimes an event that doesn’t happen can be more important than one that does. Wednesday afternoon was a case in point when Buffalo’s matmen defeated Kent State by six points 21-15, the margin of a match forfeit. Kent had not brought a 118-pounder to challenge Buffalo’s Ron Langdon. The nine matches that followed the forfeit featured four wins a piece and one draw. The Bulls got off to a good start with strong wins by Bill Jacoutot (126) and Jim Young (134). Kent then won three matches in the middle weights including an upset over 167. Jerry Nowakowski at Nowakowski, undefeated a short time ago, has been upset in his last two matches. However, both matches were above his normal weight class. Faddoul’s comeback Emad Faddoul scored four points in the third period to win the 177-pound bout. The junior’s victory put the visitors in big trouble; nine points down with only two matches left. I ... The Bulls, now 14-1, are ranked fourth in the East in one poll, fifth in another and 20th nationally. There is a lull in the schedule now with matches against traditionally weak Buffalo State tomorrow and Guelph on Tuesday. However, the Guelph match may be close due to the different Canadian wrestling style. The next real challenge will be a much improved Syracuse team next weekend. 1/31 2/22 4/3 coed 1/29 2/1 2/19 4/8 "■ START S Runner an after t|our mix of espresso Sc mellom notes and sounds £ Noui featuring ti|e captiuating sounds of WHAT A SALK! f 'Tucky Demarest" EVERY ITEM IR OC/R STORE L 10% to 50% OFF !

The Larries, who always present a lineup featuring strong skaters, have won five of their last seven contests after dropping nine of their first ten. St. Lawrence, usually a playoff contender in ECAC Division I, may be hard pressed to make the tournament this season after their rough start. The Larries, who demolished Buffalo’s Division II archrival, Oswego, last Saturday night by 9—0, are paced in scoring by right wing Pete Blair. Blair, playing on SLU’s top line, has 23 points in 17 games to lead their scoring parade. St. Lawrence will probably start their top goaltender, Tom O’Connor, an excellent nctmindcr who allows very few rebounds. “We have two days of practice to get ready for St. Lawrence,” said Wright. ‘They’re a very quick team. They probably won’t move the puck as well as Ohio State (conquerors of Buffalo last semester).
