Predicting sex of unborn child

Staff Writer

ratio of one

The ability to predict the sex of an unborn child
been little more than a dream until now.
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.

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

human genetics, has raised serious ethical and moral

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

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.

political forces could use sex predetermination to

society would be controlled by an intellectual elite.
Random selection which results in a genetically

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.

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

acknowledgement of this new classification of Collegiate faculty.

�Athletic bubble
may be coming
to Amherst
by Don Fwenmmnn
Spectrum

Staff Writer

An air-supported athletic bubble has
been proposed as a temporary solution to
the lack of recreational facilities on the
North Campus. 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

Funding the project, of course, is the
major obstacle facing the committees now

State picking up some of the cost, which is
expected to run somewhere
between $25,000 to $30,000 a year,

“If' everything went right,” Mr. Hunt said, It
would take six months to a year to put the program
into effect. He described several of the agencies that
would have to approve the new system before it
could become a reality. It would have to go to
Albany, the Council’s Office and be approved by the
State University of Buffalo’s Executive Council. He
indicated that the process would be both painstaking
and time-consuming.
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.

“On the local level, responses to the Watergate scandals

-Donald Ross, director of NYPIRG

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.

Yearbook
To the Editor.
This is an open letter to all seniors:
Recently, a letter went out to all seniors from
the 1974 Buffalonian, urging the students to have
their pictures taken for the yearbook and of course
to buy the book for three lousy dollars. I asked
election procedures and financing to insure more
equitable practices all answered, “Why should I

bother? Nobody puts their picture in the yearbook.”
if everyone has that attitude, of course nobody
will put their picture in the yearbook. So let’s
change that attitude. I am going to put my picture in
the yearbook and hopefully my friends will follow
suit. Get your friend to follow you. If we all put our
pictures in the yearbook, nobody will ever be able to
use that ole apathy excuse again. Let’s do it.

I would appreciate the opportunity to offer two
observations about your critical editorial on the
recent proposal to return to a five-course load. 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

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.

hideous, as well as inflationary costs necessary to
gain exposure on this campus, I find myself in a
discouraging situation. At a time when our national
government is reviewing its election procedires and
financing to insure more equitable practices by
candidates and parties, our own student elections are
not following this initiative. Student election costs

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. That’s why we’ve got to get
worms like Rising exposed and fired in a hurry.
Revolution and socialism arc the final solution to
universities that appoint racists like Rising as

‘Basically nonsense’
The dangers of population engineering are
“basically nonsense,” according to Ronald Davidson,
head of Pediatrics at Children’s Hospital. Dr.
Davidson cannot sec any need to be upset over the
theories of eugenics “because our knowledge of The
entire human genetic makeup is so thin, and the
human organism is so complex, that it would be
impossible to select genetic traits carefully enough to
actually produce a genetically predetermined human
being.”
“Even if sex predetermination were used,” he
continued, “and attempts were made to chart the
unborn, the people always tend to revert to the
mean.” For example, Dr. Davidson suggests that
people who are intelligent and in turn marry
intelligent spouses, will not nneccssarily have bright
children. The tendency, aside from almost infinite
genetic combinations that can occur in reproduction,
is for those children to tend toward the mean, or
middle intelligence level, he explained. 'The genetic

“Not to be taken seriously”
“We are constantly trying to get around our
genetic endowment,” Dr. Davidson commented.
“Every time a person gets a shot, his genes arc
altered. Insulin alters the makeup of diabetics.
Wearing glasses is intervening with natural genetic
endowment.”
Prenatal genetic studies and other genetic
research are not harbingers of a future age in which
population engineering will be practiced, Dr.
Davidson believes. 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. He ended up with the leaves of a radish and
the rbots of a cabbage.”

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 &amp; 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.

�Main St-Amherst

If you have some extra time

IT you’ve been feeling tired, droopy, or just
plain fat lately, some recreation may be just what
you need to' get back into shape. Clark Hall is
waiting to trim your fat.
Clark Hall is open for student recreational use
by all students from 3-10 p.m. during the week. If
you’re aquatically inclined, the pool is open from 7
p.m. to 10 p.m. Monday to Friday. The facilities are
sometimes closed for basketball games, swim meets,
and scheduled intramurals. So if you don’t want to
find yourself belly-flopping in a swim meet, check
first.
For hard-pressed study-bugs with more time
available on weekends, Clark Hall is open from 9
a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday, and 12-10 p.m. Sunday.
The pool is open on Saturday afternoons from 1-3
and Sundays from 2-5 p.m.

Recreational ice skating time is available this
year at the Holiday Twin Rinks on February 16,and
March I and 2. Buses are provided and skates can be
rented.
If you like to plan ahead, a squash tournament
is scheduled for March 6-14. Entries are due on
February 29. Each team is allowed a maximum of
eight players. Perhaps you’d like to try for the
Paddle Racquets Championship in early April.
Back to February. The handball tournament
starts February 4 and lasts through the 13th.
Basketball intramurals will continue through March
7, and coed inncrtube water polo starts on February
8. Coed basketball began last Friday.
With all this exercise awaiting you, there’s no
excuse for sitting in front of the television night
after night.

“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

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

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.

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.

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

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Committee

Resolution gives Colleges veto
over sixfaculty appointments
by Gary Cohn
Campus Editor

The Faculty-Senate passed a resolution Tuesday
giving the Colleges veto power over the six faculty
appointments to the Chartering Committee which must
approve every existing College by January 1, 1975. 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.”

“The American people cannot win the

“but for the first time the people are
refusing to believe statements issued by the

‘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

Committee of the Colleges] have not been widely read at
all,” Mr. Dandes added.
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.

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.

No-fault insurance
starts in NY State
by Marc Jacobson
City Editor

i

New York State today
becomes the eleventh and largest
state in the country to implement
a no-fault insurance plan for
motorists. 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

and

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

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.”

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

University moves from a system of
paternalistic
dictates to

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

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

On Wednesday, January 30, President Nixon
presented his annual State of the Union message
to the Congress of the United States. Although
what he said might differ slightly, the copy of the
speech that I was able to obtain is the genuine
with only slight distortions and lies.

Without further ado, let me proudly present the
President of the United States and what he really
meant to say.

fellow Americans, (and those
subversives that refuse to acknowledge my
November mandate), this has been a year full of

To the Editor;
,

I feel that putting a number on educational
quality itself is a crime, but to reduce educational
quality by forcing students to further divide their

time between more classes is more of a crime.
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.

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.

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. Now I will expose them to the
1
American people, for they are sitting beside me
mocking me
making naughty gestures.
ALGER,,, ALGER,,, talk to the people

them the truth, tell them. JERRY,,, HELEN,,,

Postscript; After this speech Mr. Nixon
resigned to the privacy of his San Clemente
retreat, the Key Biscayne manor, and the solitude
that he so richly deserves. Mr. Ford became
President and his first act was to organize all of
the American people into football leagues. The
supposed images that Mr. Nixon imagined to be
sitting next to him were not seen by any other
human being, although a banner and a book had
mysteriously appeared upon his lecturn after his
speech. The book was a copy of Macbeth while
the banner read: Would you buy a used car

Misconcep tions

To She Editor:

To the Edit of.

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 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.

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

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

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

&amp;

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.

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

conscientious and reliable, but rather seek to inform
consumers of potential pitfalls when purchasing

�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.

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.
This problem pops up jarringly in Funeral Tango too, as well as in a

�From gore to supernaturalism
those chilling tales of horror
by Bill Maraschiello
Spectrum Staff Writer

Note: This article is the first in a four-part series
on the history and significance of the horror film.

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.

But the nocturnal fiend hunting for you, and
you alone, is much more unsettling than just being
one of the crowd fleeing the Giant Whatever. It's

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.

with a European tour to begin February 6, including
stops at major cities in France, Great Britain, Italy,
Spain, Portugal, Germany and Poland. The group
will return to Buffalo in March, when they will
perform an "Evenings for New Music at the
Albright-Knox Museum on the 31st.
The Center's Creative Associates have been

composer Lukas Foss, former conductor of the
Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra; Lejaren Hiller, a
pioneer in computer music; and State University of
Buffalo professor, Morton Feldman, another
well-known composer who will accompany the
group on tour.
Renee Levine, the Center's managing director,
has been invited to Poland to negotiate the
possibility of bringing the group back to that

The void
and silence
ofBeckett's
'Waiting for Godot'

Photos by Kirstein

Page twelve The Spectrum Friday, 1 February 1974

�by Michael Silverblatt
Contributing Editor

When Waiting for Godot was first performed in
in Miami, in 1956, it was billed as the laugh
sensation of two continents; winning. 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.

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

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

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.

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

out humming 'The Last Revolutionary" and spent
the rest of the night looking for my stolen Mercedes.

Critic pans Elaine Rollwagen's
Guatemalan Indian photography
by Bob Muffoletto
Spectrum Arts Staff

Last week I had the opportunity to view the
photographs of Elaine Rollwagen in Norton Hall's music
room. 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.

'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

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.

Amnesty International called upon the United
Nations last Friday to send observers to Chile to
investigate the continued reports that the military
junta is guilty of murder, torture, and other
violations of International Law. Spokesman Frank
Newman based this call upon findings of a three-man
fact-finding team for Amnesty International that
visited Chile last November. The team estimated that
two-thirds of those held in detention camps will
continue to be held without trial.
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

�Legal Dope
by A. 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. If any registered students at this
University desires assistance in interpreting a contract or in any other
legal hassle, they can visit the Student Legal Aid Clinic located in
Norton Union, Room 340.

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
&lt;■'
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.

Grant monies are now funded by two major sources
the University Fund and the President’s Discretionary
Fund. Grants arc awarded once each semester. About $250
for prospective PhD’s and $150 for those seeking an MS,
MSW or MBA degree will be awarded this spring. The total
amount of grants awarded may reach the $9000 plateau.
In addition, the faculty has donated a $250 award to
support the program. The Graduate Research Honorary
Society, Sigma Xi, shall be the recipient of this grant of

The awarded grants are determined through a
screening process by the Research Council. Anyone
interested in screening is requested to leave his name and

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

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.

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.”

�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.

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.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Gelbaum and AAC urge return tofive course load

A return to the system of granting “one credit hour for one contact
hour of course work,” or the five-course load practiced at this University
before 1968, has again been recommended by Academic Affairs
vice-president Bernard Gelbaum under the auspices of his advisory Academic
Affairs Council (AAC).

�Faculty levels criticism at Gelbaums recent actions
Dr. Gelbaum in his present post,” said the
editorial in last Friday’s The Spectrum.

by Richard Korman
Spectrum Staff Writer

“I think it’s an abuse of administrative
power, part of an attack on progressive

education.” This was the reaction of
American Studies professor Elizabeth
Kennedy to the cancellation of 16 College
E courses by Academic Affairs
vice-president Bernard Gelbaum last
Wednesday. 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.

“I’ve criticized Dr. Gelbaum before,”
noted Harold Segal, professor of Biology,
“and I would like to see him replaced

the right to attempt to eliminate courses

However, “his actions were high-handed

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.”

cold our dog won’t go in it. 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

own family’s habits from criticism when he told of his

His home has central air-conditioniing for all nine rooms,

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

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.”

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

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.

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

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.

laxity. It is not my practice to talk about right or
wrong in art, but to speak of being more or less
successful in achieving a desired result. My students
did not feel I was excessively lenient and felt their

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

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

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

I cannot help but be incensed by Jay Boyer’s
attempted critique of the movie PapiUon. Whether
he likes a particular movie or not is of no real
consequence
to me, but the obvious and
unforgivable deletion and absence of facts is.
Especially when these facts are so pertinent to the
film and its message that without them, no critique
can justly be called a critique.
Mr. Boyer speaks of this movie as Frank
Schaffner’s extravaganza, filled with sensationalist
“baddies” (as he calls them) that seems to be saved
only by the presence of Steve McQueen and Dustin
Hoffman. (Really now, is Dustin Hoffman a “hot
new item?”) But what The Spectrum’s Arts Editor
fails miserably to mention is that Papillon’s story is
true. Yes folks, there really is a Papillion, and a
Dega, and a Julot. Furthermore, all the “baddies”
that Mr. Boyer listed were very much a part of the

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.

�Breisblatt, a member of a committee of students who are
investigating the possibilities for recreation, was optimistic
that money to fund such a project would be found. ‘The
Student Association is paying at least $15,000 a year that
the state should be covering in terms of facilities rental,”
said Breisblatt. 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.
While plans arc not yet definite, a bubble-domed structure
will most likely be constructed on the north campus.
'The reason for this [the construction] is because of Bubble to be built

state, students to pay
Breisblatt elaborated on the plans. ‘There are two
possible plans,” Breisblatt disclosed. ‘The first one calls
for the state to pick up the rental fees. 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.”

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.

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.

John (Jack) Herman, a familiar face and figure in Norton Union,

is

retiring from his supervisory position on Norton Hall’s Maintenance
Staff after 14'A years at this University. 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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

�children.
Some tutors try to advance their
largely backward pupils by practicing
reading and writing with them;
however, the power of ordinary
human warmth and friendship is
relied upon as a rewarding means of
opening up a child to unfold her or
his potential. 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. The project allows variqus
majors, especially those in English,
Art and Sociology, to apply their
skills to a unique teaching situation.

Tonawanda Indian Action Program
Indian children are a minority in the
Buffalo public schools. 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.
The volunteers should realize that
once a committment is made by them
that only through consistent and
sincere involvement will they succeed
in obtaining any degree of satisfaction

Alternative Education
This is very
different than the first two. We are
looking for people who are interested
in exploring alternative education in
Buffalo and the United States. We are
organizing possibilities for beginning a
newsletter, a workshop for children,
fund raising, and other ideas people

have.

In the area of education and special
education, we require that people commit
themselves for an entire semester and that
they work twice a week to that there is
some continuity between worker and
child. It is necessary to state what days
and hours you wilt be available, so that
staff members and children can arrange
appropriate placements and activities.
Plans are being made for seminars and
coffee hours for all people involved in all
areas, in interest to assemble is expressed.
The contact names and programs

They can work within a

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.

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

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

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

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.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

New 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

“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;

—professors

“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.”

Rezoning controversy

W

Common Council set to vote
on fate of historic mansions
The fate of three Victorian mansions on
Delaware Avenue is now in the hands of the Buffalo
Common Council. 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

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 &gt;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.

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&amp;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

substantial financial aid to a projected

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

A family with a net income of $11,000, for

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.

Similarly, at the University of
Oregon, where in past years
ROTC facilities had been the
target of bombings and burnings,
administrators have not reported

Statement on thefuture of the Colleges endorsed
Editor’s note: The following is a statement
about the future of the Colleges under the
proposed Reichert Prospectus, prepared by
Concerned Women’s Studies Students and
endorsed by the Collegiate Assembly.
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. The

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

stupidity?
(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

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

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

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

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

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.

�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

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.

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.

has been cut approximately 20% from a

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.

themselves to vital student interests as well
as pressing social concerns. The approval of

would not only seriously curtail further

invalidate our past goals, and ultimately
transform the entire nature and spirit of
the Colleges.

mechanical hierarchical education, and our
concerns for integrated study and pressing
social problems. Throughout the nation
there is a backlash against gains made in

this perspective; it is not that .the Colleges

they have been effective, and as such are

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.

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.”

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?”

“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

Bulk face tough challenge to
qualifyfor national tourneys
by Bruce Engel
Contributing Editor

Recently Buffalo’s wrestling team added two
victories to their impressive record by defeating
Georgia Tech and Kent State. However, more
significant to the Bulls wrestling future were the
remarks of the opposing teams' coaches.
Both Georgia Tech mentor Lowell Lange and
Kent State coach Ron Gray are members of the
prestigious rules committee of the wrestling coaches
association. As such, they are involved in the
administration of all aspects of the sport.
Following the Georgia Tech match, Lange

Eastern independents qualify wrestlers for the

number of qualifiers next season. This March the
annual Cincinnati event will still send three wrestlers
in each weight class to, the nationals, but next year
only the top two will go.

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. We could have had a ten or twenty
lead.” The Bulls were able to stop Gilbert in the
second half, limiting him to just four points. “We
didn’t let the ball go to his side of the zone,”
explained Hill.
Wednesday evening, the Baby Bulls will play
host to St. Bonaventure, as they try to avenge an
earlier 91-76 loss to the Bonnies.

Baby Bulls triumph in close
competition against Big Reds

Century

*

The Cincinnati qualifier has been under attack
for several years. 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.
Obviously, it will be tougher for any of the Bulls

Bulk fall to defeat inface of

by Dave Geringer
Spectrum Sports Editor

Skating in seemingly endless waves,
Canton, N. Y.
St. Lawrence broke open a one-goal contest by pouring six
goals into the Buffalo net in the third period of Saturday
night’s contest .at St. Lawrence. 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

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

attempts
to cancel
16
College E
courses

by Gary Cohn
and Richard Korman

October, and has frequently clashed with members of the
Collegiate Assembly.

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.

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.

�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.”

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. Dr. Gelbaum added that all the 16 courses

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.

�Grievances

New procedure seen
as very successful

The undergraduate grievance

procedure,
a
procedure by which students can
appeal to impartial sources when
they feel they’ve been treated
unfairly by a faculty member, has
proven quite successful. 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.

Action Committee attempts
to solve various problems
by Linda Moskowitz
Feature Editor
&lt;

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. Action Committee is

Hospital as lab assistants, companions to

parks and playgrounds.
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

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

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

companions are always needed to spend

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

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.

American support aids continued Viet escalation
by Paul Krehbiel

Staff Writer

January 27 marks the first anniversary
of the signing of the Paris peace agreement
to end the war in Vietnam, but the United
States is still fueling the flames of war.
$800 million from American taxpayers’
pockets goes toward military aid for the
Saigon regime. 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.

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. All
interested students and community members are urged to
attend.

Aodmic Affair, vice-president Bernard
Geibaum's wholesale cancellation of 16
College E courses Mo weeks Into the
semester is unfortunately quite typical of the
man's narrow conception of education and
repeated insensitivity to students. 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,

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

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.

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

became an ogre (though I blush to admit
it). I went out of my way to denigrate the
book, making such venemous remarks as:
"Jonathan Livingston Seagull? Sure, I
know it. I spent a month reading it one
afternoon." or "JLS? 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

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.

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.

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. And a short sequence with a not-quite-right mirror
was gorgeous when the Marx Brothers first tried it in Duck

The Golden Road Great Talas of Fantasy and the
Supernatural, edited by Damon' Knight (Simon and

Schuster.

$8.95)

There was a footprint in his soap.
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

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

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.

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.

Nail Young Time Fades Away (Reprise)
"Hey, Steve, be careful. This alarm system is
sensitive," Graham whispered.
"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.

"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.

Dance," Steve remembered.
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.

�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.
All of us can understand
The Blues and their exponents have the quality of

us about the good times, those times that are going to end
up as our memories. 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. Help them to make their retirement easier:
send an old Bluesman to camp

Strangler Lewis was a fighter, not a writer, Bronco
Nagurski was a football player, then a fighter, not a writer,

writer, Jack Johnson was a fighter not a writer, William

not a fighter. Darnel Defoe was a writer not a fighter. Gay
Talese is a writer not a fighter. I guess the only ones who
are both fighters and writers are Norman Mailer, Mickey
Spillane, and Jimmy Breslin.
In any case Gilbert O' comes up smelling like a tiny
buncha four leafs when you get down to contradictary
musical pugilism: like how does a guy give off the pazzazz
of a potato and still come up with hit after hit. It's not
because he looks like Burt Bacharach, it's not because he
can play the piano, it's not because he's a good writer.
Maybe it's because he was the first one to set Camus to
music. "Aone Again Naturally" is this generations ode to
existential glory—and it's all so subliminal that you don't

Actually, Gilbert O' and this new release "I'm a
writer, not a fighter" aren't all that bad. At least it's a step
and a half above the soap—opera yawn—out things like
'Tie a Yellow Ribbon" and "Knockin' on the Devil's

the same last name as John L. or Barry, but because he
reminds me of that "Darby O'Gill and the Little People"
movie I saw when I was knee high to a toad stool. Darby

by Bob Muffoletto

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:

will show it.) To add salt to my distilled
water, I attended an opening at the Gallery

Gallery for attempting to show
photographic work and second to Mr.
Drisch for being a fine technician and
commercial photographer. His product

averaging in size of about 20 x 40 inches.
The series contains several heads of

including many peppers. Mr. Drisch

without hesitation.

Realizing the financial problems of a.

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.

(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

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

Mexican Foods

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.

Note: The following is a copy of a letter sent to the
Buffalo Courier Express:

■

The review of Gallery 219 in Monday’s The
Spectrum was written by Audrey Brooks. 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.

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.

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,

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

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

possible that future Olympics contestants might

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

CAMPIS INREST

by Gem Colucci

‘vs*-w

minds are aware of what would happen without some kind
of order at large meetings, and procedures to insure order
are essential. 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

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.

SUNYAB housing
Mr. Madison Boyce, Director of Housing at this
University, said it was “virtually impossible” to have
a segregated dorm on this campus. 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

chances for that happening are very small.”

In order to eliminate the segregated dormitories,
the State Education Department will negotiate with
the various colleges, attempting to have them

Department’s ruling. Ultimately, should a particular
school not comply, various administrative or
economic sanctions could be imposed upon it. The

Martin Sostre, Black political prisoner from Buffalo, was
transferred to New York, from the Clinton, New York Correctional
Institute, to testify at a prisoners’ trial there hist month. This is the first
time Mr. Sostre has been taken from solitary confinement in 14
months. Mr. Sostre is still held in prison awaiting the court’s action on
a writ asking for a new trial. Mr. Sostre, the owner of a Black liberation
Bookstore at the time of the 1967 Black rebellion in Buffalo, was
allegedly framed on a narcotics charge, and sentenced to 31-41 years in
prison. The main prosecution witness, Arto Willians, has admitted that
he lied about buying drugs from Sostre, in a statement presented to the
courts about two years ago. The Courts have stalled since that time,
and Sostre has now spent six years in prison.

that abortion was constitutional.
Last year, the state legislature

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.

Sanford commented: “I expect a

we’ll do well.” Backstroker Bill

been pretty close to ours, so it
should be a good match.”

Did you ever wonder how a hockey coach
decides to match up lines or why a basketball coach
switches from a man-to-man defense to the zone
defense? 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

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.

�Victory over RIT a warm-up
for the St. Lawrence game

ROCHESTER The hockey bulls tuned up for
tomorrow’s encounter with powerful St. Lawrence
Wednesday night as they took a 7-2 decision at
Rochester Tech. 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.

Record

Major test
The Bulls will face St. Lawrence tomorrow in a
major test. 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).
They’ll probably dump the puck in and forecheck.”
Wright was undecided as to whether to start
Maracle or John Moore in the Bull nets: “Right now,
that remains to be seen.”

Charlie Wright’s second tie in
three matches iced the meet for
the Bulls. Wright complained after
the match that a shoulder injury
took away some of his repertoire.
“Under the circumstances, I was
lucky to get what 1 got,” Wright
said. His 190-pound bout was the
most interesting of the match,
featuring a slapping match (which
resulted in a penalty against
Wright), a stalling penalty to
Charlie’s opponent (Kent State’s
Bob Shamakian) and the eviction
of Buffalo’s cheerleaders by
referee Bob Jacobson.

The game became rougher as the contest went
on and the Bulls’ margin increased. Referee Tom
Scheg handed out 58 minutes in penalties, with the
Bulls receiving 30. As a result, only one of the nine
goals was scored while both teams were playing at
full strength. Buffalo notched two power play goals
and a shorthanded tally, while scoring their second
and third goals of the contest when both teams were
short one man. Buffalo exchanged goals with the

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

the sami
specific conservation measures to save coal, electricity and gasoline.
Dr. Kctter has asked individuals in the University to assume
personal responsibility for helping the campus conserve energy. Steps
taken by the Administration in response to federal and state calls for
energy conservation include: 1) cutting off all fresh air fans, exhaust
fan systems, and air-conditioning units after classes each evenings and
on weekends; 2) modifying automatic doors so they operate manually;
3) lowering all campus thermostats to 68 degrees; 4) reducing corridor
lighting; 5) replacing time-clock controls on automatic lighting with
photo-electric cells; 6) turning off all lights when cleanup crews have
finished in the evening; 7) limiting state vehicles to 10 gallons of gas
when they fill up at University pumps; 8) placing “Conserve Fuel”
stickers on all University vehicles; and 9) taping warning reminders on
University vehicle speedometers at the 50-mile-per-hour mark.
Gas squeeze
“The administrative actions that are presently feasible have been or
are being Uken. Now we need the responsible cooperation of every
student and faculty and staff member to increase the University’s
energy savings,” Dr. Kctter wrote in his monthly report to SUNY
Chancellor Ernest Boyer.
The state has asked this University to cut its energy consumption
by 20%, but “there will be difficulties,” explained Burr C. Foils,
assistant vice president for Physical Facilities. “Gasoline cutbacks at the
University should reach the desired state level,” said Mr. Foils. “But, if
necessary, gasoline consumption could ultimately be limited to service
vehicles such as snowplows.” The use of state cars has presently been
limited to local transportation, and deliveries using state vehicles have
been curtailed where feasible. Furthermore, state vehicles are being
limited to a maximum of 10 gallons when receiving gas at University
pumps.

ft*.

&gt;c&lt;

..&lt;•

Storage space needed
Another problem, Mr. Folts emphasized, is that Unive.
facilities can only store 500 tons of coal at one time; during peak usage,
this amount could be used up in one day. A search is currently under
way to find adequate facilities to store coal to insure its availability
when needed. The current shortage of natural gas and oil has also
prevented the planned conversion of heating facilities on the Main
Street campus from coal to gas.
“Success depends on all who use the campus,” Mr. Folts
emphasized, adding that the measures taken so far have been
“well-supported by everyone.” A reduction in campus consumption of
heat and electricity by 10 to 15 per cent has bden achieved through
voluntary efforts.
Students could curtail their usage of electricity by turning out
unnecessary lighting when rooms are left or not in use. Electricity for
the campus is supplied by the Northeastern power pool, which serves
much ofKew England and New York State. In times of heavier demand
from other areas, such as New York City, the University is sometimes
requested by Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation to reduce its
electrical use even further.
,

Glass buildings undesirable
Long-range planning for the efficient use of energy by the
University is the concern of John Telfer, vice president for Facilities
Planning. When constructing new buildings, Mr. Telfer explained,
certain heating priorities must now be considered. Glass lets heat escape
in the winter and lets it in during the summer; a building with a lot of
glass is thuse not very energy-efficient and requires a heavier heating
and air-conditioning load.

originally designed as an all-electric campus, since the electric supply

around the world, claims Mr. Anderson.
Based on the papers supplied him, Mr. Anderson has
charged that the Arabian-American Oil Company
(ARAM-CO), fearing nationalization of their Saudi
operations, continually pushed for price increases
throughout the year, “to squeeze out more profits before
the takeover.” In 1973 the cost of crude oil shot up 470%.
ARAMCO is a consortium of four U.S. corporations
Exxon, Mobil, Standard of California, and Texaco, plus
the Saudi Arabian government, which produces about 90%
of the oil taken from Saudi Arabia. Presently it is the
world’s third largest producer of petroleum, the largest
Middle East oil producer and the largest exporter,
surpassing in recent years both Venezuela and Iran.
—

Price agitation
According to information Anderson claims to have
received from “sources inside ARAMCO who have access
to its most secret files,” the giant combine began early last
year “agitating for higher prices.”
Through a tax loophole designed to encourage U.S.
oil companies to operate in foreign countries, ARAMCO
benefits in two ways from the price increase. First: the

42 gallon barrel of crude oil is about 12 cents. In contrast,
the posted price hit an all-time high of $11.65 a barrel on
January 1, 1974. This price, besides representing a
mark-up of allmost 100 times the actual cost, is also
fictitious, claims Anderson. The actual price of a barrel of
crude upon arriving in the U.S. is now closer to $9. But it
is the posted $11.65 price that is used when computing
royalties, and eventually tax write-offs, the documents

reveal.
Anderson reports that “the confidential tables also
indicate that ARAMCO gets a pay-back from Saudi Arabia
for its technical help in developing new industries, such as
salt production.” Though the information is not totally
clear, Anderson says that “it appears that the proportion
of the pay-back increases as the price of oil goes up.”
The documents reveal that ARAMCO is changing its
method of operating in Saudi Arabia because of the
increasing threat of nationalization. “Because the Saudis
are expected to take over the oil at the wellhead,” says
Anderson, “the company is preparing to take its profits
from refining and marketing. In the past it has been the
other way around.”
The initial results of this change? Well, as Anderson

the
only under graduate course
offered by the Department of Higher
Education, provides a different and
flexible, student-centered

approach.
The "254" section of the
course will consist of an initially
conceptual orientation to the growth
and
transformation
of
higher
education coupled with an intensive
group investigation of the present
state of American higher education.
The first phase of this section
involves establishing a learning
environment in wich the participants
are encouraged to share personal
values, attitudes, and experiences
brought with them to the classroom
as well as opinions and criticisms of
commonly read materials and case
studies. The second phase involves
individual learning

The
“255" section is
intended to allow the more highly
motivated,

or
participant, to conceptualize, refine
and execute research based on his
personal interests in higher education
or those shared with others acting as
a research team. The commitment,

are
negotiable in this section.
Evaluation in HED 254-5
will consist of 3-4 progress evaluation
sessions and a wrap-up session at
which the instructor and participant
will arrive at a consensus regarding
the latter's progress as measured
against the
pre-arranged learning
agreements. Grading options include
letter grades, pass/fail, or SW (i.e.
written evaluation).

To the Editor:
Last Friday was an interesting day, for me at
least. I entered rny Psychology 101 classroom
expecting approximately 50 minutes of reasonably
intelligent lecture. Upon arriving, however, a group
of people were there distributing a “newspaper”
claiming that the CIA was infiltrating or at least
manipulating Psychology Departments, nationwide,
into becoming population control centers and
through these centers, obtain their ultimate desire of
cornplete domination.
After circulation of the leaflets, a spokesman for
the group, name unannounced (because of
paranoia?) and unknown, began speaking, over the
of
Dr.
protests
Barnette,
the instructor.
Approximately four to five minutes elapsed during
which the speaker made his points and the class
assumed he would leave and normal instruction
would resume. This was far from the case, however,
as the speaker continued on at great length about
this “serious threat” to cur social well-being,
neglecting to mention his sources of information and
attempting to rouse the class to action .on his and his
paper’s words alone. Dr. Barnette’s ultimate
disposition of the problem, after calling Campus
Security and repeatedly asking the speaker to leave,
was to dismiss the class, the only solution to a
situation which by then had deteriorated into a
yelling match.
If such a CIA plot does exist, and I do not deny
the possibility in view of today’s political situation, I
for one, don’t need a screaming fanatic, to tefl me
about it. I am more than capable of discovering it on
my own. One of the major points I’m sure the
speaker is opposed tq is the use of captive audiences
in college psychological studies. Yet was not his
technique the same? Commandeering a classroom of
206-300 students who had to sit and listen, solely
because they assumed that a regular class would
follow, sounds like just that type of action.
To the speaker: If your point is so valid and you
are as dedicated to it as you would have us believe,
speak openly in public and CIA view so that those
interested may listen, and those that reject your
hypothesis are not forced to against their will. Using
the methods you did last Friday afternoon
immediately alienated 90-95 per cent of the class
and the 5-10 per cent that might have listened,
would probably attend an open forum, IF you’ve got
the courage of your convictions enough to present
one. If you do not, kindly stay out of any
classrooms and allow the poor, deluded psychology
students the opportunity of discovering this plot for
themselves, as you undoubtedly had to do.

by Clem Colucd
Everyone

must have heard by now that
Howard Cosell’s not-so-secret
ambition is to be a United States Senator. The
1974 New York State race is out because
incumbent Jacob Javits is too hard to beat, has
political convictions reasonably close to Mr.
CoseU’s own and is a fellow N.Y.U. alumnus. So
the first opportunity will be the 1976 race,
I don’t think it’s a bad idea at all: Senator
Howard Cosell, D.—N.Y. Why not? He was a
lawyer before he went into sports broadcasting,
specializing in labor law. He also claims a fair
knowledge of constitutional law and the
Pentagon.
And in this age of political
obfuscation, Mr. Cosell’s directness would be
more than merely refreshing. But the question of
his merits is only secondary. Cosell in the Senate
would he fun.
Imagine him on the Senate Watergate
Committee. As it was, that committee had every
Senator with television appeal but (for obvious
reasons) Ted Kennedy. With Cosell, possibly to
replace the uncharismatic Joseph Montoya, it
would have been a television tour de force.
Sen. Cosell: (Since everyone in the world
does a Howard Cosell impression, albeit badly, I
suggest you read these passages aloud) Mr.
Mitchell, witnesses have testified before this
committee that you personally approved the
break-in at the Democratic headquarters in the
Watergate Hotel, that you, the highest law
enforcement official in the nation at that point in
time, having sworn to uphold the law and the
Constitution of the United States, did knowingly
and deliberately direct a man in the employ of
the White House to commit a criminal act of

Conspiracy charged
To the Editor:

An Emergency National Commission of Inquiry
has been rapidly forming in order to protect
internationally significant evidence regarding the
security and integrity of the United States
Government and Constitution. This evidence has
been uncovered by a special deprogramming team
under the supervision of Mr. Lyn Marcus.
Mr. Chris White, a leading member of the
International Caucus of Labor Committees (ICLC)
was brainwashed, tortured and programmed by
British Intelligence MIS for the CIA in order to
assassinate L. Marcus and other leading members of
the ICLC. The successful deprogramming of Mr.
White and discovery of other brainwashed victims
has placed in the possession of the National Caucus
of Labor Committees (NCLC) direct and
overwhelming evidence implicating the CIA and
NYC police in a direct attack against the national
interest. It has been determined that the British
Govemrilerit, on reviving information that - Mr.
was deprogrammed, would issue an order for
the activation of a random squad to accompish the
assassination of Lyn Marcus, Mr. Chris White, and
Mrs. Carol White. According to Mr. White’s program,
the test British Intelligence would use to determine
if Mr. White had been deprogrammed would be a
message he would be incapable of recalling until
brought out of the programmed state. Detective
Finnegan of the New York Police Red Squad was
specifically identified by British Intelligence as the
officer in charge of the random assassination squad.
There is irrefutable documentation that the CIA
intends through assassination and other means to
destroy the principles, in this case of international
espionage, who, constitute irreplaceable evidence in

the national interest.
The Emergency National Commission of Inquiry
is demanding that the evidence in possession of the
NCLC be protected and submitted to the
examination of competent press, legal and
psychiatric experts. If L. Marvus, Chris White, Carol
White or any other of the principles involved are
legally or illegally arrested, abducted or murdered in
the coming hours and days everyone will know that
the sole purpose of this would be to keep this crucial
evidence from public scrutiny and investigation.
There is no free press willing to cover and
investigate these events. The magnitude of the

national news blackout of these world-shattering
events could only have been organized by the CIA.
We have, in fact, been informed by members of the
press in Boston that known CIA operative Andrew

took it upon yourself to decide what the

President of the United States should or should

power of the President to make decisions by
allowing yourself to be the judge of what
knowledge he would have on which to base his
policies. You are, therefore, an accessory to a

Ramsey Clark

ooking In
It is an unfortunate feature of our
Constitution that impeachment proceedings must
begin in the House of Representatives because
that deprives us of the opportunity of seeing
Senator Cosell in action there. In some small
consolation, though, the Senate dops get to
approve Presidential appointments. Senator
Cosell at the confirmation hearings of Gerald
Ford:

Sen. Cosell; Mr. Ford, people say you are a
decent man, a hard-working, honest family man
who has raised three fine sons and a daughter. No
one in this Congress lacks confidence in your
personal probity. But they also say that you’re a
lightweight, that you have no grasp of foreign
policy, that you have no sense of America’s
pressing domestic needs, that President Nixon is
choosing you as impeachment insurance, that a
Ford administration, if the necessity should ever
arise, would be in face a Kissinger-SchleisingerShultz administration, that you could not escape
being dominated by these three heavyweights
the Muhammad Ali, George Foreman and Joe
that you cannot even

walk and chew gum at the same time. In view of
all this, why should this body confirm you as
Vice President and put you a heartbeat or an
impeachment and conviction away from the
Presidency? America is waiting to hear it, Mr.
Ford. What will you tell them?
And for the rest of you sports fans, it’s
another open secret that New York Knicks
forward Bill Bradley has political ambitions. The
rumors about his knees may or may not be true
but it is likely that his basketball career will not
last past 1976 no matter what the state of his
health. If the Knicks win the NBA title in 1975
(without Willis Reed or Earl Monroe they may
have trouble getting past Boston, let alone Jabbar
and Co., so this year is out) he can retire from
basketball and run for Congress in his district the
following year. He’s a Democrat along with most
of his district and is very likely to win, especially
coming from a championship team.
With Howard Cosell in the Senate and Bill
Bradley in the House (he’s young and can move
up to a Senate seat later) it’ll be a great one-two
punch for New York State. Sports fans, and.New

To the Editor.
Former Attorney General Ramsey Clark is in

the process of organizing a campaign for the United
States Senate, and we are looking for students who
are interested in working for Clark’s nomination and
election.
Clark is going to run an innovative campaign,
concentrating on issues instead of following the
usual hand-shaking, soap-selling type of procedure.
There will be no 30 or 60 second media “spots;” all
television and radio time will be of greater length in
order to enable Clark to discuss issues. Also, no
contributor will be permitted to give more than
$100 to the campaign, because Clark believes that a
campaign should be funded by large numbers of
small contributors, rather than a small group of large

contributors. A candidate should be able to get
elected without having to pay homage , to wealth.
The campaign will therefore be funded by small
contributions, which will be solicited by volunteers.
There are but a few of the important differences
between this campaign and more conventional ones.
Clark’s record of honesty, and his advocacy of civil
liberties, civil rights, and peace will also be
emphasized. We intend to stress that Ramsey Clark is
a man of integrity, whose record shows that he has
been in the forefront of the fight for freedom and
justice for all in America.
Any students interested in working in the
campaign should please notify: Jim Grossman, 804

Kopkind himself has been ordering certain local

There is no police protection. There is no free
press. There is no justice. There is only the CIA
conspiring to tamper with and destroy this evidence.
Since these basic institutions either are in complicity
with the CIA or else have failed to defend the
national interest in the face of this CIA insurrection
against the Constitution. There is nothing but the

Who writes theater ads, anyway? That

and his state championship team.
Actually, if they had foregone the salient
“electrifying,” the blurb would have pretty
much established the play’s premise. Briefly,
it’s the story of a high school basketball team
and its coach who gave their provincial
Pennsylvania town something to brag about: a
championship season. The play is set 20 years
after the championship as the team members

five characters simultaneously. By rounding out
the spirit of each one in concise terms (concise,
not constricting), he forces us to remember
each of them as a distinct entity.
The characters are slightly larger than life,
but still life-like; their roots are in life. Miller
wrote a play with life intensified and honed to
two hours. Perhaps he developed his ability to
think with acuity vis-a-vis characters through
his own experience as an actor. (Incidently, he

Wherever he grasped this skill, Jason Miller is
able to neatly define the entire cast: (1) a

Tom Daley; (3) Tom’s toady brother, James;
(4) a mayor named George Sikowski; and (5)
Phil Romano, a rich Italian. With the addition

In That Championship Season the men have
had no real fathers, no families. Phil Romano
had a father who worked so hard at “da

Tom and James Daley had a father who was so
pitifully cripped that James had to “wipe his

them is unfulfilled, and since none of them has
much else, they can’t break away from it.

Fitting: the man whom the “orphans” must
conquer represents “family.” In fact, the way
they propose to beat him is through his own

narrow town that the Jew’s uncle was a

The orphans care about their pseudo-family

�Only when they were on that team during that
Championship season did they feel a part of
something. Since the Jew embodies what they
aspire to (a link with the past), they hate Jews.
The team may feel like a family, but they must
finally admit it is a contrived and unnatural
relationship. There is a father figure, but no
common mother in whose womb they grew.
Since they were a winning team, their
victory and their town’s acclaim gave an absurd
objective validity to their basketball family.
Winning was only important in reassuring them
of their artificial family’s validity.

“actor’s play,” and so it’s up to the actors to
bring to the stage the sense of family the script
exudes.
For instance, in a scene near the end of the
play, James, short-changed by his fellows, is
about to betray them. The Coach “commands”
him not to, and he ceases. “Why did James
stop?” a friend of mine asked. It was a good
question. Why should an ex-basketballer follow
orders from his old coach after 20 years? But, if
we had been shown that it was not so much a
basketball team as a close family, then the
question would not have been raised. It is easy
to see why a man with nothing else would not
betray his family, especially if his father

Jason Miller’s updating
a bad word, but
there does not seem to be a better one
of
Arthur Miller’s style takes two forms. The first
is that obvious freer use of rough language. The
second change isn’t so obvious. While Arthur
was concerned with the crumbling family unit,
he was able to present the notion with
characters who were members of crumbling
families.
The very fact that Jason has discarded the
family in favor of a basketball team is a
comment on modem society. Nowadays, with
the specter of overpopulation, the convenience
of birth control methods, and the increasing
acceptance of abortions, families are getting
smaller. With greater travel opportunities, the
keen emphasis on education (“going away to
school”), and the large number of working
mothers, the family as the center of one’s life
has taken a beating. Peer groups with or
without some “older” figure in charge have
taken over part of the family’s role.

�JV Bulls

score first

victory of the season
by Paige Miller
Spectrum Staff Writer

The junior varsity basketball
Bulls began the spring semester by
defeating St. John Fisher 86-71
Friday night at Clark Hall. It was
the Baby Bulls first victory in six
games this season.
The victory avenged an earlier
69-68 loss to the Cardinals. In
that December 14 game, the Bulls
led most of the way. In the last
nine seconds, Buffalo had several
shots at the winning basket,
including a lay-up by John
Ruffino, but none dropped
through.
Friday
night, Buffalo
dominated the contest, opening
up a 17 point lead at one time.
The Cardinals, led by K.J. Hamill
(32 points) fought back, switching
to a full-court press. Bulls coach
John Hill commented: “It [the
full-court press] hurt us because
we didn’t look up the floor when
we were bringing the ball up. We
tried to dribble through a
double-team instead of hitting the
open man.” The Cardinals were
down by only five points with

about three and one half minutes
remaining, but came no closer.
The Baby Bulls were led by
guard Gene Henderson and
forward Jim Peterson. Both had
been sent down by the varsity to
obtain more playing time.
Henderson contributed 2S points
and seven assists, while Peterson
had 24 rebounds, high for a Baby
Bull in one game this season, and
17 points. Cardinal coach Steve
Fitzgerald remarked: ‘That
number SO [Peterson] is a good
ballplayer.” Fitzgerald added:
‘That’s been our \trouble all year
when we play against teams with
more height than we have. We’ve
been getting out-rebounded by
twenty rebounds a game. Hill also
praised Peterson: “He helped
quite a bit. We needed another
rcbounder.”
Buffalo’s 86 points represented
their season high. “I thought we
worked the ball really well on
offense,” said Hill. “We took only
two bad shots in the first half.”
However, Hill indicated that the
team’s defense needed some work.

Victorious

Epee fencers win fifth straight
with tremendous assistance from sabre director

by David J. Ruben
Spectrum Staff Writer
Buffalo’s fencing team extended its winning
streak to five matches with victories over Oberlin
and Case Western Reserve, 23-4 and 16-11 last
weekend in Ohio. The wins give the Bulls a 5-1
record this season.
Friday night Buffalo swept past the Huns in a
mere 75 minutes, dropping only four bouts along the
way. The Bulls won all three events, scoring 8-1
decisions in foil and epee and posting a 7-2
advantage in sabre. It marked the fourth loss of the
year for Oberlin, which has yet to win. 3-0
performances by Tom Giblin in foil and Marty Schiff
in epee led the Bull assault, and freshman Larry
Siegel added an upset win in his first varsity bout as
he tripped up John Lucas, Oberlin’s top fencer.

Afterwards, Munz observed: “This has to be one

touch brought thunderous applause from the sparse
Buffalo supporters as Case dropped 13 of the last 14

performances of Munz, Forman, Giblin, Gately and

lead and missing two lay-ups that could have given the
Buffalo an eight point lead before the Panthers cracked the
scoring column. Showing the cod of a nationally-ranked
contender, Pitt calmly pulled away from a 17-17 deadlock
by outscoring the Bulls 16-2 over a six minute stretch
midway through the first half. Knight tallied eight of the
sixteen points in that streak, and 'Pitt’s Mickey Martin,
game high scorer with 26 points, tallied four as the
Panthers sped away to a 49-29 halftime lead.
First victory?
The Bulls host Cornell tonight in what promises to
be a tightly played contest. The Big Red, under the
tutelage of second year coach Tony Coma, currently has a
2-10 record, with one-point wins coming over R.P.I. and
hapless Columbia. Only one letterman is back from last
year’s 4-22 squad, 6-7 forward Lynn Loncki. “If we play
well, we could have a chance at them,” predicted
Richardson. “They have more experience and height than
we do, and we just beat them by three last year (72-69)
out there. It’s a toss-up. Anybody could win it.” The Big
Red’s shortest player is 6-1, and due to an Ivy League
regulation, Cornell has no freshmen on the varsity roster.
The game will start at 8 p.m. tonight at Gark Hall, with
the Baby Bulls facing the Cornell frosh in the preliminary.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Monday, 21 January 1974

ContributingEditor

Every existing College will be required to win

approval before a faculty-dominated “chartering
committee” by January 1, 1975. Those Colleges
failing to win approval will cease to exist.
That proposal is the central point in the
majority report of Jonathan Reichert’s Colleges
Committee. The report also recommended: prior
approval by the Division of Undergraduate Studies
(DUS) for every new College course; increased
faculty involvement in the Colleges; a long-range
financial committrrient by. the Administration to
assure the funding of adequate planning and
development; a “Pass/No Credit” grading option;
increased authority for the new Dean of the Colleges
(formerly Director); a workshop program to develop
new Colleges; and increased communication between
the Colleges, the faculty and the Administration.
The report will be considered at tomorrow’s
meeting of the Faculty-Senate.
Destruction feared

Roger Cook, graduate student on the Colleges
Committee who dissented in a minority report, fears
the majority report “will be used to destroy the
present Colleges.” Mr, Cook opposed the proposed
faculty-dominated makeup of the chartering
committee because it contains no representatives
from the Collegiate Assembly, as recommended by
tire--External Evaluation. He also objected to the
proposed DUS sanction of experimental courses and
to several of the proposed governance procedures.
The proposed chartering process for establishing
the new Colleges is a difficult one. The Reichert
Committee cited the view expressed by the external
evaluating team: “The easier it is to establish a
College, 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.”

President Robert Ketter is expected to
announce the appointment of Irving J. Spitzberg,
Jr. as Dean of the Colleges within the near future.
Dr. Spitzberger, 32, a graduate of Columbia
University and Yale Law School, is presently
serving as a Fellow at the Institute of Current
World Affairs.

this elimination of experimental courses would
curtail the more innovative aspects of the Colleges.
Dr. Reichert denied this charge: “In the past year,
not one course has failed to be approved by DUS.”
Because the so-called abuses of the Colleges have
been identified with the experimental courses, Dr.
Reichert explained, placing course approval in the
hands of DUS will help to “legitimize” the process.
Should DUS fail to approve a substantial number of
innovative courses, the Faculty-Senate could change
the course approval process at a later date.
“The new process is better politically for the
legitimacy of the Colleges at this point in its
history,” Dr. Reichert concluded.
In the chartering process, each proposal for
College status would be expected to include: the
intellectual purpose of the proposed College; the
educational style of the College; course descriptions;
and a list of College personnel, including, but not
necessarily limited to, the participating faculty. Also
required will be a statement of how other
participating faculty will be chosen; a resume of thq
proposed administrative officer or master; evidence
of substantial faculty participation in the College;
governance procedures and membership
requirements; an evaluation procedure for courses
and instructors; a statement of budget processes and
fiscal controls; and finally, a specification of the

‘Legitimacy’ sought
The rigorous nature of the chartering process
will increase the “legitimacy” of the Colleges, Dr.
Reichert claimed. Under the proposed guidelines, all
current Colleges will be granted continuing status
until January 1975. During this time, each of the
present Colleges must apply for “official status.”
Charters for any College will first be submitted
to the Colleges’ dean and the College Council, a new
body to replace the Collegiate Assembly, for their
advice and suggestions. Within one month, the Dean
will submit the proposal to the chartering
committee. The chartering committee will then
recommend that the charter be adopted, rejected or
modified.
The charter would then be submitted to the
vice-preSident for Academic Affairs, the Dean of the
Colleges and the Dean of the Division of
Undergraduate Studies (DUS) for their independent
recommendations to the President.

Collegiate Assembly excluded
The proposed chartering committee would
include six faculty, three students and one member
of the Academic Affairs Council. “The primary
responsibility for initiating and dissolving academic
program rests with the faculty,” explained Dr.
Reichert.
Representatives from the Collegiate Assembly
would not be included on the original chartering
committee. Dr. Reichert added, because of.the
conflict of interest in having College reps voting oh
their own initiation, the “defensiveness” of College
personnel and the “clique” among members of the
Collegiate Assembly.
Every new College course must be approved by
DUS, according to the majority report. Previously,
many experimental courses had a one-semester trial
period. After the one-semester trial, the course
would undergo evaluation by DUS.
Many College members have expressed fears that

To promote increased faculty involvement in
the Colleges, the report recommended that the
Colleges receive funds to compensate regular
University faculty by “purchasing released time from
their departmental responsibilities.”
The report also recommended that the

Colleges.” For instance: “Department chairmen

Designed to facilitate the development of new

SA moves against departments
and instructors with late grades
by Richard Korman
Spectrum

Staff Writer

Student Association (SA) is beginning a class action
legal suit against departments and individual instructors'
who have not submitted grades on time.
The suit is in response to the continued failure of
some faculty members to submit grades before the January
4 deadline and because this University “has the most
ridiculous late grade policy in the country,” according
SA President Jon Dandes.
A recent SA telephone survey revealed that the State
University of Buffalo has the least stringent grade
deadlines of all the schools polled, including the other
state universities. Grades here are due within 14 calendar
days of the semester’s end. At the University ofMinnesota
at Minneapolis, the largest institution in the country,
grades are due 72 hours after the instructor’s finals. Within
SUNY, the deadline at the State University at Albany is 48
hours after finals, and 72 hours at Stony Brook and
Binghamton
Fair warning
Since July 3, SA has sent eight letters to provosts,'
department chairmen and deans informing them of the
seriousness of the late grade problem. Mr. Dandes
informed the Faculty-Senate on December 4 that legal
action would be taken if all grades were not in on time.
A November 1973 memorandum from Charles
Ebert, dean of the Division of Undergraduate Studies
(DUS), to department chairmen, deans and provosts,
requested that final grades be submitted “as early as
possible” but no later than the January 4 deadline. “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,” the memorandum stated.
There were 3000 late grades this semester covering
130-course sections, said Mr. Dandes. “The English and
Political Science Departments, along with all the Colleges,
had
worst record of late gradeSj he said , Th e English
Department had the greatest number of late grades with 31
separate sections failing to meet the deadline, according to
'

»

“I’m rather disappointed and surprised,” said English
Department Chairman Joseph I. Fradin. Dr. Fradin was
under the impression that his department had done rather
well this semester. He said his administrative assistant
reported to him that all the grades were in and a few may
have been submitted late.
Along with the class action suits being filed, SA is
aiding students who are working through the University
grievance procedures. One student filing a grievance could
not register for law school because a faculty member, who
is also a department chairman, had not registered his
grades.
SA will ask the Office of Admissions and Records
for the names of the guilty instructors, and is confident it
will comply. However, assistant director of Admissions and
Records James C. Schwender claimed Mr. Dandes already
had the names in his possession when they met Friday
morning. The names were not obtained from Admissions
and Records, he stated.

kOO)A*t*V

Mr. Dandes met Friday with Ron Stein, associate
director of Student Affairs, to discuss the initiation of the
suits. SA Attorney Richard Lippus is already preparing
legal briefs, Mr. Dandes reported. “We wanted to make
sure that we were not being capricious. We’ve reached a
point where we have to take very decisive and very strong
action,” the SA President added.

Program prepared forreform of State government

by Marc Jacobson
City Editor
Terming the response to the Watergate scandals and
its “local equivalents” as “long on indignation but short on
constructive action,” Donald Ross, director of the New
York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG), has
issued a comprehensive political reform packet.
The packet, prepared by NYPIRG staff attorney
Nancy Kramer, analyzes the obstacles to serious citizen
participation in New York State governmental affairs, and
recommends a number of appropriate, specific and
concrete legislative remedies.
Consisting of four major categories and seven
specific proposals, the packet has been sent to every state
legislator. The major categories are Disclosure; Money,
Influence and Responsibility; Public Education; and
Enforcement. The lobbying arm of NYPIRG, the New
York Citizen Lobby (NYCL) is prepared to actively
mobilize New Yorkers who feel the need for such reform.
They intend to use their citizen sympathizers as well as
those legislators who support the packet’s ideas to
convince others that “it is essential for their survival that
they support this legislation.”

candidate’s

background and qualifications, coupled with statements
from the candidates.
The final portion of the packet concerns
enforcement. To solve the problem of enforcement, it
advocates establishing a “Political Practices Commission,”
independent of any governmental agency, to respond to
complaints generated by violations of the other sections of
the packet. At present, NYPIRG feels that “existing laws
are frequently rendered meaningless because of inadequate
enforcement provisions.”

('

Timing is critical
NYPIRG is enthusiastic about the program and its
chances for success. “We have no individual sponsors'as yet
for the packet,” said Ms. Kramer. “However, we are
seeking sponsorship from the leadership or a coalition
group, not one particular legislator.” Ms. Kramer pointed
to the simplicity of having resolutions introduced into the
legislature, noting that over 15,000 bills had been
introduced last term alone. “Getting a bill introduced is no
problem; the problem is getting the bill considered on its
merit. The most important facets of a successful reform
packet would be introduction by the right people, and at
the right time,” she continued.
“The chances for passage are unknown at this time,”

�Labor Committee

Psych class disrupted
as protest against CIA
by Qem Colucci
ContributingEditor

Representatives of the Buffalo Labor
Committee disrupted Leslie' Barnette’s
Psychology 101 class shortly after 1 pjn.
Friday as the first local effort in" an
international campaign aimed at “exposing
behavioral psychology as quackery” and
stopping an alleged Central Intelligence
Agency (CIA) brainwashing drive they
claim is to precede a CIA-directed military
coup in the United States.
Two men carrying literature entered Dr.
Barnette’s Psychology class a few minutes
after he had begun his lecture, loudly
denouncing Psychology Departments
throughout the country and claiming they
were controlled by the CIA. The two men,
who burst in on the class without Dr.
Barnette’s permission, were joined by four
or five others. Spokesmen for the Labor
Committee placed the total number of
demonstrators at seven.
The purpose of the demonstration was
to attack psychosurgeons, Skinnerian
psychologists and behavioralists by
“making it impossible to conduct their
classes,” according to Labor Committee
representatives.
Students angered
i Dr. Barnette asked the demonstrators to
leave, but they refused. Labor Committee
spokesmen termed the reaction of the
approximately 300 students in the class
“extremely irrational and extremely
parochial.” The students overwhelmingly
demanded that the disrupters leave. The
students were “irate,” said Dr. Barnette.
When the demonstrators refused to
leave, Dr. Barnette called Campus Security
and dismissed the class. A handful of
plainclothed Campus Security officers
arrived at the scene and several uniformed
officers follower! shortly thereafter. The
disrupters were warned that any further

such incidents would result in their arrest
for illegal trespass.
The Labor Committee intends to
continue and escalate their planned
disruptions of classes. While they refused
to release the names of potential targets for
disruption, informed observers expect that
Psychology professor Edgar Vinacke and
Philosophy' professor and editor of The
Humanist magazine Paul Kurtz might
expect their classes to be disrupted.
Law will prevail
Regarding the Labor Committee’s plans,
Campus Security Director Patrick Glennon
said: “If they continue these disruptions,
the law will take effect.” Involved students
will be dealt with under Board of Trustees
regulations and non-students will
immediately be arrested and charged with
criminal trespass.

Dr. Barnette plans to use the democratic
process to handle any further disruptions.
He will ask the students to vote as to
whether they want the Labor Committee
representatives to address the class.
•

The disruptions are part of an
international effort known as “Operation
Nuremberg.” Labor Committee spokesmen
claifVi to have proof that the CIA is
carrying out a worldwide operation for a
military takeover of the United States and
Europe within the year. This effort,
“Operation Orpheus,” supposedly involves
widespread brainwashing of Americans and
Europeans and assassinations of Labor
Committee members.
The plot revealed
The attack centers on psychologists like
Nathan Klein and B.F. Skinner who have
developed the behavior modification tools
needed for the massive brainwashing that
will precede the CIA’s alleged military
coup. The current energy crisis is an
example of massive brainwashing, said

members of the Labor Committee.
Government officials are trying to convince
people to “degrade themselves” and
compete for gasoline and heating oil when
they know perfectly well that there is
plenty of fuel to go around, according to
the Labor Committee.
The committee also alleges that former
Gov. Nelson Rockefeller and his
Commission for Critical Choices is working
with the CIA to plan this international
coup. They claim the issue is a choice
between behavior modification and . “a

of mind based on human
creativity.”
The Labor Committee reports it has
evidence to prove the truth of these
accusations. However, the evidence is not
forthcoming. In the meantime, they intend
“to intervene in any class which is teaching
behavioral modification.” Since behavioral
modification constitutes a large part of
modern psychology, potential targets for
disruption at the University are numerous.
The next few days may see at least a few
classes broken up.

full-scale famine hit the city just before
Christmas Day, when many stations were
closed for the holiday and others had

allotment from the oil companies. At the
few stations that remained open, cars were
lined up for many blocks. Many desperate
motorists wasted their precious gallons
combing the streets for an open station.
An informal form of rationing
stations limiting purchases to $3.00 or

Drivers at a Staten island station asking
to fill up were told: ‘There’s a $2.00 limit;
$4.00 if you get your car washed here.”
The Internal Revenue Service activated
men for holiday duty to investigate the
proliferating complaints of price-gouging,
and a random investigation found a large
number of stations selling gas at an illegal
price.

the situation got worse each successive
day, as more stations exhausted their
December allotment and were forced to
close. Only one topic was being debated
and discussed by ail New Yorkers, each
with their own story to tell. Many
considered the gas shortage as designed by
the oil companies to jackup prices; others,
particularly those who needed their cars
for work, were simply worried and
frustrated. Headlines blared-: Gasoline

As even the remaining stations closed on

dealers were told they would get 85 per
cent of the gas they got in December

1972,

and they were told the dates it would be
delivered. But how they allocate it, how
many hours they remain open, that’s their
decision.” A Mobil spokesman said; “If a
dealer wants to sell it all in the first hour,
that’s his business.”
The drought got so bad that traffic was
disrupted all over the city. Riding down
any main street or avenue, one could spot
the gas stations blocks in advance as lines
of 100 cars or more congested streets and
backed up traffic. Extra traffic policemen
were stationed near open gas stations to try
to clear at least one lane of cars waiting for
gas so thru traffic could pass. While some

collected four dollars from each driver and

�Oil crisis

Buffalo escapes severity
by Michael O’Neill
National Editor

The nation’s oil shortage has made itself
felt in nearly every phase of life, leaving no
part of the country untouched. Long lines
at gas stations, gasless Sundays, and the
ever-present threat of fuel rationing have
brought the crisis into plain view for the
consuming public.
The Niagara Frontier has largely
managed to escape the brunt of the crisis
so far, due to the presence of major oil
refineries in the vicinity, but minor
inconveniences may be a hint of possible
severe problems for local residents in the
future. A study released by the Erie
County Savings Bank showed that more
than 100,000 Buffalo-area residents would
not be able; to get enough fuel to drive to
work if the standby federal gasoline
rationing system is adopted.
Local refineries help
Two major oil refineries in New York
State (Ashland Oil on River Road in
Niagara Falls, and Mobil Oil in Buffalo) are
located on the Niagara Frontier. These two
producers supply gasoline and other
petroleum products to the Western New
York region via a network of wholesalers
and distributors. Because Federal
Allocation provisions allow for the
distribution of fuel in areas close to the
refinery at the expense of outlying
districts, the Buffalo area has managed to
get through the crisis with only a minimum
of cutbacks.
The two refineries distill No. 2 heating
oil and other light-grade heating oils, as
well as gasoline products. Buffalo also
receives a daily flow of more than 100,000
barrels of crude oil from Canada. The only

m

'&lt;

f&gt;

major problem in this part of-the country
has been the shortage of No. 6 heating oil.
No. 6 oil is a heavy residual oil used
primarily for heating large industrial plants
and some older schools and hospital
buildings.
The Canadian government imposed an
embargo on the export of this oil last fall.
Local industries had feared a situation that
would result in a marked decrease in
production and widespread plant
shutdowns. The crisis was eased only after
local representatives in Washington
intervened to persuade Canadian officials
to have the fuel shipments delivered.
Natural gas, which is used to heat a large
number of homes in the vicinity, is ih short
supply. Reduced stockpiles and
uncertainty over whether future shipments
would be delivered prompted the Public
Service Commission to restrict several
companies from selling gas to new
customers. The purpose is to insure that
the needs of present customers will be met.
Spokesmen for the Iroquois Gas Company
said that they are accepting new customers
while continuing to meet the needs of their
present clientele. Since Iroquois Gas is the
largest supplier of natural gas in Western
New York, the problems of new customers
seeking deliveries has not reached major
proportions. However, Iroquois Gas has
asked its customers to conserve fuel by
lowering their thermostats by six degrees.
The most serious threat at present is the
specter of the federal standby gasoline
rationing program. Large numbers of
workers commuting from the outlying
areas of Erie County to downtown Buffalo
would Jbe faced with the problem of not
being able to purchase enough gasoline to
drive to and from their jobs.

Dylan didn’t disappoint. From his spirited rendition
of “Most Likely You Go Your Way and I’ll Go Mine,” he
mesmerized the crowd with three hours of incredible
music. And he didn’t do it alone. While the crowd had
come to see Dylan, The Band’s musical perfection was
absolutely overwhelming and they stole the show several
times.
Dylan’s voice was strong, clear and expressive as he
played rhythm guitar and sang the lyrics which had
inspired a generation. After a new song, he did “As I Went
Out One Morning,” his raspy voice in control, The Band
providing excellent back-up with Richard Manuel plunking
out a syncopated piano. Next was an electric, upbeat
version of “Lay .Lady Lay,” which Dylan sang in a
different, faster style, accenting the last word of each
phrase. It didn’t have the serene beauty of the studio
version, although the fast tempo did seem to please the
crowd.
Biting lyrics
The musical energy hit a peak during “Tom Thumb’s
Blues”: Manuel playing brilliant piano; Levon Helm laying
a solid foundation of bass; Garth Hudson producing a
heavy organ; Robbie Robertson, masterful on lead guitar
throughout the concert; and Rick Danko, a simply
phenomenal drummer, punctuating the song with

The crowd was ecstatic as Dylan walked over to the
piano, played some very familiar chords and sang “Ballad
of a Thin Man.” Manuel switched to a second set of drums
and The Band was musically tight, but all eyes were on
Dylan as he sang his story with feeling and emotion. He
sang expressively, movingly, pleadingly; melodramatic at
times, snarling and sneering at the right words, as he
screamed his penetrating lyrics;
You walk into your room with your.pencil in your

Dylan bowed to a tremendous ovation and left the
stage, leaving The Band to perform a set. Any feeling of
letdown the crowd might have felt was intantly dissipated
within five seconds as they rocked into “Stage Fright.” It
was such a tight, perfect reproduction of the song one felt
he must have been listening to a giant stereo and not a live
performance. The vocal versitility of The Band came into
prominence as Levon sang lead while Danko, Manuel and
Robertson backed him on harmony. Every instrument was
in balance-strong drums and bass, pretty guitar, and when
Garth went into a powerful organ break, each instrument

�followed him
Danko’s powerful voice rang out on “The Night
They Drove Old Dixie Down,” with the others
harmonizing on the chorus. The result was a beautiful
mixture of rich voices, and Robbie’s guitar was precision
itself. Manuel played pedal steel guitar or; “King Harvest,”
and next was a fantastic verson of “This Wheel’s on Fire.”
The bass and lead played in measured opposition to each
other, the drums set a powerful beat, and Robbie as the
floor leader enabled the five individuals to mesh as one
unit. Richard Manuel then went over to the piano (the
versatile group was constantly switching instruments), and
in slow, measured beauty, his high-pitched voice rang out
with Dylan’s “I Shall Be Released.” Once again, the
beautiful harmony was captivating.
Captivating musk
Manuel then switched gears to a syncopated piano
and The Band broke into “Cripple Creek,” with Levon
singing lead. By now they were really cooking and the
crowd felt it; they weren’t just playing songs up there,
they were making music. They had played well for Dylan
too, but his presence had overwhelmed the crowd.
Everyone was a little in awe of Dylan, while The Band
seemed like five regular guys they could relate to. Now
The Band’s mature blend of instruments and voices was
captivating the crowd by itself.

Dylan came back for “All Along the Watchtower”
and his presence immediately dominated the stage again,
his voice in complete control. He wore no hat this time, his
black curly hair flowing above his dark glasses, his intense
demenanor carrying him through a new song into a mellow
rendition of “Knocking On Heaven’s Door” from his
movie soundtrack. The Band sang harmony with Dylan on
the chorus, and the six musicians left the stage with the
crowd in a state of shock.
Coffeehouse flavor
The break between sets is usually for the musicians,
but this time it was the crowd that needed a rest. But only
a few minutes later, as everyone was still recovering from
the first set, Bob Dylan walked out on stage, strapped on
his acoustic guitar and adjusted his harmonica.
The next twenty—five minutes alone were worth the
price of admission.
Suddenly it was just you and Dylan, and it could’ve
been a Greenwich Village coffeehouse in 1962, for here
was one man and his guitar making music. He opened with
“The Times They Are' A’Changing,” then sang a poignant
version of “Don’t Think Twice, It’s Alright,” clearly
pronouncing the biting lyrics. He emphasized different
words, using different accents and inflection than on his
albums, and this gave it the flavor of being alive and
spontaneous. He then sang an overwhelming version of

“Gates of Eden,” spitting out the bitter lyrics, powerfully
strumming his acoustic guitar, masterfully utilizing the
harmonica. The audience sat transfixed.

Relationships of ownership
They whisper in the wings to those
Condemned to act accordingly
A nd wait for succeeding kings
And I try to harmonize with songs
The lonesome sparrow sings
There are no kings inside the gates of Eden...
The kingdoms of experience in the precious winds
.

they rot

While paupers change possessions
Each one wishing for what the other has got
And the princess and the prince discuss
What is real and what is not
It doesn't matter inside the gates of Eden...
After “My Love She Speaks Softly,” Dylan provided
possibly the most intense five minutes of the night: a
hauntigly powerful version of “It’s Alright, Ma.”
Adjectives fail to describe his intense, raspy voice emoting
the story and spewing forth each word in a fast but
articulate sequence, against a repeating progression of
acoustic chords. He was totally absorbed in the music; the
audience was entranced. It was nothing less than hypnotic.
The crowd heard what they camt to hear, the message of
their spokesman.

Temptation's page flies out the door
You follow, find yourself at war
Watch waterfalls of pity roar
You feel the moan but unlike before
You discover that you just be one more person
crying.

\

Disillusioned words like bullets bark
As human gods aim for their mark
Make everything from toy guns that spark
To flesh-colored Christs that glow in the dark
It’s easy to see without looking too far
That not much is really sacred.
So don’t fear if you hear
A foreign sound to your ear
It’s alright, Ma, I’m only sighing.
While preachers preach of evil fates
Teachers teach that knowledge weights
Can lead to hundred-dollar plates
And goodness hides behind its gates
But even the President of the United States
Sometimes must have to stand naked.

Mama Rag,’* rekindling the rock mood, followed by
“When You Awake.” Manuel, now sporting a Toronto
Maple Leafs jersey, played pedal steel on “The Shape I’m
h)” and the others joined in harmony. Danko found the
balance between a driving beat and sophisticated drum
fills, and Robertson wielded a flashy guitar. Manuel played
a full, rich piano and vocal harmonies filled the air during
“The Weight,” with Rich and Levon trading verses.
Dylan then returned and played two new songs with
The Band. Then the lights came on, the crowd stood and
clapped in rhythm during “Like a Rolling Stone.” Dylan’s
raspy voice led the music, but the sound of 10,000 people
shouting “How does it feel?” in unison created an intense
feeling. The musicians returned for a fast-paced encore
with the opening song, “Most Likely You Go Your Way
and I’ll Go Mine,” a freewheeling rock-out which was
somehow perfect for that moment. And then it was all
over, the crowd filing out, shaking their heads in disbelief.
They had seen the legend in concert. They had discovered
The Band as a superb musical force. And they had become
re-acquainted with Bob Dylan. The legend did not
disappoint them.

In a sense, Bob Dylan, now 32, a family man with
five children, is playing a part on his current nationwide
toiir. Moving from his beginnings as an inspiring'folk artist
and songwriter in the early-sixties “Blowin’ in the Wind”
days, Dylan became so popular that he realized he could
create just about any kind of music he wanted. He
gradually moved into rock and folk-rock, which alienated
many folk “purists” but brought him a widened following
and broader means of musical expression. He was
immensely popular in the mid-sixties, but, when he
stopped touring after his motorcycle accident in 1966, he
was deified, like The Beatles, into a virtual myth. Moving
through different musical phases, from the countrified
Nashville Skyline to the mellow New Morning, Dylan
always transcended the labels critics tried to pin on
him—“rock,” “folk,” “country,” and so on.
But Dylan continually showed his dislike, often

paranoia, for his fanatical fans and the persistent press in rock phenomenon-David Bowie, Alice Cooper, visual
his quest for seclusion after 1966. He publicly rejected the effects, etc.-a group that just stood there and played
role of generational spokesman, taking the “I’m just a guy might not be appreciated. But they’ve been exceptionally

Gallery 219 has collected the work of eleven Buffalo
craftsmen in a show effective both in the immediateness of
the strong color and in the subtlety of design. The
materials in the raw are themselves suggestive in a visual
and tactile sense-clay, wood, yarn*feathers, silk—and it is
with this in mind that it is possible to feel with the
craftsman the formulation from material to idea to design
to object. American crafts are enjoying much more than a
revival, they are being re-evaluated in terms of their
limitless potential of expressivity and growth.
Everyday, mundane“crafts” such as knitting,
crocheting, stitchcry and weaving are being seen in a new
aesthetic light. Some craftsmen have expanded ideas from
the realm of what is termed “fine art” (i.c. abstract
expressionism, hard edge, art nouveau) through their use in
craft design. Discovery of synthetic materials by industry
has also played a role. For example, weaving is now
rubber,
new yams
of varying
utilizing foam
unconventional thicknessess, new glazes for pottery, etc.
The fundamental foursome
basically four crafts are represented in the Norton
exhibit: textiles, ceramics, enamel and wood. Each of the
craftsmen has extended the possibilities of their materials.
These fascinating new directions they have explored make

the show exciting.
C. Jackson Brockette, a professor at Rosary Hill
college, machine- knitted his piece called Five Knots and
stated that “it is a first in Buffalo.”Tangled in the yellow
stuffed knot are red and purple stripes; from the end a red
feather extends to the right while yellow wool hangs
toward the ground. Another brockette piece is an
experiment in a technique which uses the sun’s rays to
photographically develop an image on muslin cloth.
Brockette bolsters the resulting image with machine
stitchery and stuffing.
Mary Jane Randall was interested in macrame when
she began to discover that her essential interest was in the
rope, she found larger and larger rope pieces in antique
and naval surplus stores. Randall brought the rope to the
Gallery to arrange it but emphasized that how it is set us is
not crucial. As is readily seen at the Gallery, the point is its
presence.
Nancy Bclfer’s velvet wall quilt is kinetic in the use of
color; the very quality and texture of the velvet enhances
movement and creates light patterns and shading which
continually changes. Kathy McGuigan’s weaving is
significant in the beauty of its execution. They are
explorations of fairly-traditional loom techniques, the
exhibition runs until January 30.

Financial Aid applications for 1974-75 are now available at the Financial aid
office, 312 Stockton kimball tower. Financial statements must be sent to the College

will be published this year,
despite severe financial problems and decreasing
interest in such traditional collegiate endeavors as
yearbooks. Following the heavy debt of last year’s
edition of the Buffalonian, many had speculated it
would be discontinued.
Sub-Board 1, Inc., publisher of the yearbook last
year, was reluctant to provide financial backing for
the publication unless an income-offset budget was
presented to the Board. (An income-offset budget
has all anticipated expenses balanced by anticipated
income. Since the project breaks even, it costs the
backers nothing.)
Buffalonian editor Gayle Watnick said no
yearbook could be produced under such terms and
therefore approached various photography and
printing firms to obtain funds. One firm, Delma
Photography Studios, agreed to shoulder the expense
of printing the yearbook in return for the contract
to take senior portraits. Since yearbooks generally

recieve a rebate from the photographers who take
senior pictures, the firm can make money on the
deal if the yearbook agrees to forego the rebate.
Free offer...really
Photos will be taken between February 4 and
March 1. All who sit for pictures will get six color
proofs free which will be suitable for passport.

The Buffalonian will be mailed during the
summer to all who order it. The hardcover yearbook
will cost $3.50. Anyone who wishes to donate
photos of campus scenes and events is welcome to
do so. Those with an artistic bent may try their hand
at a caricature of President Robert Ketter. The best
entry will appear in the yearbook.
All labor including the editor and her staff is
being donated. Clubs and student organizations can
buy full or half pages at cost. Any inquiries should

A noted publisher in Chicago
reports there is a simple technique of rapid reading which
should enable you to increase
your reading speed and yet
retain much more. Most people do not realize how much
they could increase their pleasure, success and income by
reading faster and more

According to this publisher,
many people, regardless of
their present reading skill, can
use this simple technique to
improve their reading ability
to a remarkable degree.
Whether reading stories,

books, technical matter, it becomes possible to read sentences at a glance and entire
pages in seconds with this
method.
To acquaint the readers of
this newspaper with the easyto-follow rules for developing
rapid reading skill, the company has printed full details

A front-page story in Friday's Courier generally
made the current efforts to transform the Colleges
sound like a last-ditch attempt to save the Colleges
from wild-eyed students teaching courses like
lesbianism. The story, as will his upcoming series,
focused completely on questionable courses and
abuses in the Colleges and while the writer said he
thought there were many good courses and Colleges,
he regretted that space limitations prevented him
from emphasizing them.

Buffalo community's negative image of University
students. Snide comments by a local radio DJ about
drug use by University students and press stories on
the immorality of co-ed dorms only serve to
reinforce the outdated student stereotype held by
many in the community.
The student-community antagonism which
reached its peak during the 1970 disorders is long
past. Students are now a positive force in Buffalo;
both the Community Action Corps and many
College programs send students into the community
to help hospital patients, disadvantaged kids, the
mentally retarded and other needy people. Yet
activities such as these, while not as eye-catching as
lesbianism courses, receive relatively little coverage.
Certainly abuses must be reported. But we hope the
local media will recognize its responsibility to paint

I want to express my appreciation for the way
in which Campus Security handled my particular
campus parking problem.
My car’s battery was dead and as a result of
impossible timing with classes and garage mechanics,
the car was left in Michael lot for two nights.
Through the understanding of the Lieutenant on
duty, 1 was able to move my car from the lot

Fight racism
To the Editor.
Larry Williams, BSU president and a leader in
the fight to maintain the EOF program, was harassed
and arrested last semester by racist campus cop,
Gary Kalisz. Larry was found not guilty of all
charges in Buffalo City Court Still, he has to pay
$ 1000 in legal fees and has lost time from his school
work. We think that the Student Association must,
in the best interests of ail students black and white,
take action in support of Larry and other EOF
students, and against university racism.
Rather than merely bemoan the poor state of
race relations on this campus, the SA should take
concrete action against UB racism;
Move to make UB reimburse Larry Williams
for legal expenses,
and until such time as this is accomplished

accompanied by increasing unemployment affecting
students, their families and faculty. EOP and black
students are the first targets in plans that will

leading the struggle against deteriorating conditions.
The SA will not be able to stop anticipated

To the Editor.
At the faculty-senate meeting this Tuesday
(2:30—5:00, Diefendorf 148), there shall be a voice
leading the conservative position on this campus, by
George. Dr. Reichert’s document has sufficient
conditions to yield the reputed claim of grave
hierarchical leanings by the faculty senate executive
committee. The necessary direction that
amendments eliminating phrases like “or an
alternative” will push the colleges can be imagined.
First, the chartering requirement will be used to
eliminate all currently active programs except
women studies, College B (without Dr. Sapp) and
paraprofessional Colleges H and Z which will be
given a short charter. This delay will be used to force
the latter to conform with programs
now—nonfunctioning and those having made special
arrangements with other units of the university,
sucsh as the law school, Dr. Ketter, or Dr. Gelbaum

(who realigned funding to college D), or to coolly
them out.
The assembly is dissolved
period. The only
control over the collegiate director is, of course,
from above. Democratic governance is inappropriate
for a “liberal institution" like a state university, ihe
director has an advisory council with no real power
like the current faculty senate.
Each college will be run by a master (the old
plan) with full responsibility to the director for his
unit, but supposedly with no autocv tic power, i.e.

The final slap is the total elimination of

In The Spectrum of December 7 it is stated that
President Ketter reported to the Faculty Senate that
Philosophy is one of three departments that have
responded to his request for a recommendation as to
which Faculty it wishes to be a part of in the new
organization of the University. This is incorrect. The
President’s office confirms that the Philosophy
Department has not yet been asked for its

recommendation on this matter. The issue is still
being discussed at the level of the Academic Affairs
Council. It is my understanding that the Provost of
Social Sciences and Administration will ask the
Philosophy Department for its recommendation
after a methodology for considering the matter is
agreed on by the President and the Provost.

To the Editor:

In regard to the front page of the latest issue of
The Spectrum we feel it necessary to comment. It is
our assumption that the intention was to depict how
commercialism has detracted from the true meaning
of Christmas. However, it is our concern that to
many students it came across as a mockery of Christ.
We believe that to many students today, it i$
true that Christ is no more to them than a Raggedy
Ann doll. They have either never considered His
deity or His relevance to their lives, or they have
rejected the possibility of His being relevant.
To us the true meaning of Christmas is that God
gave man the gift of Himself
to bridge the
separation between God and man. And the Bible
says that by accepting this gift, by accepting Christ
as our personal Saviour, we can experience a
personal relationship with God.

When the communists handed our Government
lists of the POWs to be repatriated, they also gave us
the names of 60 Americans who “died in captivity”
and whose bodies were to be exhumed and sent

Yet, Washington has been strangely silent about
the neglected repatriation of these dead, about the
fate of the men previously classified as POWs, and
about the hundreds of other “missing” men who did
not come home.
If we are to have true “peace with honor our

a copy of the letter I sent to
I am
Josef Albers, at Yale University, New Haven,
Connecticut, regarding UB’s copy of his useful book,
The Interaction of Color. It is my understanding that
this is one of many similar problems students have
with our efficient but parochial Art Library. Perhaps
your publication of this letter will encourage more
students to do what they can to make school
facilities more accessable to themselves.
enclosing

Dear Prof. Albers.

I am writing to you about a very unfortunate
situation which exists at the State University of New
York at Buffalo where I attend school as an art
student. I came to this school as an undergraduate
transfer student from the Cleveland Institute of Art
to live with my husband who is employed in Buffalo.
While I was a student in Cleveland I used your
exciting, helpful book Interaction of color in many
of my design and painting courses. I purchased the
small paperback copy of the text for my own
personal use but found it only minimally helpful
without the plates in the complete edition to which I
had access in the Cleveland Institute’s art library.

My problem here at Buffalo is this - the school
library owns a copy of the complete Interaction o)
Color. This copy is kept in a special reserve library
not even to use in
and is not available for students
the library proper. Agter I talked and pleaded with
-

the head Librarian of the Art Library, Mrs. DaLuisa,
and the head of the Art Department, Mr. Don
Robertson, and several art faculty members, the
book was made available by special request only to
graduate students.

Of course, I understand Interaction of Color is
very valuable, especially since there aren’t going to
be more editions made. But isn’t a book most
valuable as a tool? And isn’t a tool created to be
used? The tragedy is that the book is being saved and
protected for posterity while students now are being
denied the chance to see and learn from it.
As I have exhausted all avenues of appeal here, I
am writing to you in hope that you might think it
not beneath your notice to drop a line to Mrs.
DaLuisa, or Mr. Robertson, or Mr. E. Smith, urging
them to allow your book to be used as I believe you
meant it to by art students.

�INTERNATIONAL
Thailand students protest CIA
More than 7,000 students demonstrated outside the
U.S. Embassy in Bangkok last week demanding that the
CIA get out ofThailand. These were the strongest protests
since students helped overthrow the pro-U.8. rightwing
regime October 14. Thailand has been the main base area
for the CIA and other U.S. operations in Southeast Asia.
The country contains the largest concentration of
warplanes outside the U.S.; more than 400 planes at six
bases. It was from these airbases that many bombing raids
were carried out over Viet Nam, Laos and Cambodia.

NATIONAL
WoundedKnee trials begin
Jury selection is taking place in St. Paul, Minnesota in
the federal conspiracy cases against six leaders of the
American Indian Movement for their occupation of
Wounded Knee. The defendants include Russell Means,
Dennis Banks, and Clyde Bellecourt. (The seventh federal
indictee, Pedro Bissonette, was killed in October by
Bureau of Indian Affairs agents on the Pine Ridge
reservation.) More than 130 have been indicted in
connection with the events at Wounded Knee, and 150
more arc under grand jury investigation. The National
Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression, 150 Fifth
Avc.. room 425, in New York, N.Y. 10011, is conducting a
mass campaign of sending postcards to the Interior
Secretary Rodgers Morton protesting the trials and
expressing support with the defendants.

Richard Nixon. “1 took part in the subsequent coverup.-.I
shall continue to subvert the institutions of government by
unlawful means.” What’s this? the President admitting to
crimes against the American people? Well, not exactly.
It sounds real enough, but in fact the recording is an
altered version of Nixon’s August 15 speech in which he
denied any involvement in, or knowledge of, the Watergate
break-in and cover-up. The record is -a cleverly edited
version of the Nixon speech made by New York recording
engineer 15. Tcibcl.
Teibel, 35, heard Nixon’s innocence speech and,
amidst the controversy around the presidential tapes,
decided to make his own version of the speech to prove to
students in his tape editing course at the New School for
Social Research how easily a tape can be altered. The
Teibel version of the speech involved making 140 splices a
minute.
“I certainly wasn’t out to challenge the President,”
said Teibel in defense of his work. “I’m basically apolitical
I’ve never voted in my. life. I just wanted to demonstrate
that tape is infinitely flexible and that if you accept a tape
for evidence, you’re asking for trouble.”
When Teibel’s tape was first issued as a 45 RPM (with
the original speech on the flip side for added laughs) not
surprisingly most radio stations refused to touch it.
Word-of-mouth news of the record traveled quickly,
though, and it is now in its sixth printing. Teibel’s mail
order business has received orders from all over the
country, some asking that it be sent in a plain brown
wrapper.
‘The Altered Nixon Speech,” as the record is called, is
selling best in Washington, D.C. Teibel has received a
dozen orders from Capitol Hill staffers and a record store
near the White House reports that they can’t keep it in
stock.

yean arid his political obituary, for use at a moment’s
notice.

Nixon has said on more than one occasion that he will
stay in office “as long as I’m in good health,” and
newspaper columnists have suggested that this statement
could provide a way out.
When Nixon was hospitalized for viral pneumonia last
summer, it was reported that he had been coughing blood.
Although Nison’s personal physician denied the report
New York magazine says that the source of this account
was none other that White House advisor General
Alexander Haig.
If Nixon decides to hang on until impeachment
proceedings begin. New York reports that the Ford
Foundation may be setting aside funds to pay for live
television coverage by the Public Broadcasting System.

Firearms banned
The presence of firearms has been barred at the
Buffalo State College, 1300 Elmwood Ave.
Until recently, that school’s top three or four security
men had been allowed to bring personal, licensed pistols to
the campus as a “standby measure.” However, “current
regulations prohibit possession of or use of firearms
without the expressed permission of the chief
administrative officer,’’stated Buffalo State President E.K.
Fretwell on January 11. Any weapon that could be carried
must be both state-owned and approved by the college
president.
“No privately owned weapon may be carried onto or
utilized on campus,” stated Dr. Fretwell. ‘Therefore, if

University of Buffalo,
President Robert Ketter has not allowed the arming of
campus security officers, despite' the Committee on
Internal Security’s recent recommendation for selective
arming. Dr. Ketter has already received recommendations
from the undergraduate student Association and the
Faculty Staff Senate, but the Faculty-Senate has as het
taken no action on the matter, according to Tom Crainc,
has as yet taken no action on the matter, according to
Tom Craine, for some more input,” Mr. Craine said.

YOU GOTTA FRIEND!
Monday,

21 January 1974. Th# Spactrum. Papa ninataan

�by Louis Harris
By 48-40 per cent, the American people feel that
President Nixon "should be impeached if Judge Sirica were
to decide that the the President was negligent in the care
he took of the Watergate tapes.” There is little doubt from
the latest Harris Survey that Mr. Nixon’s handling of the
tapes issue has seriously damaged him and has cast a deep
shadow on his continued tenure in the White House.
Here are some key findings on the tapes issue from a
survey of 1,460 households nationwide, conducted by the
Harris firm from January 7-10:
—By 58-23 per cent, a majority of the public “does
not believe President Nixon when he said that two of the
nine taped conversations Judge Sirica wanted were never
recorded in the first place.” This result marks a slight
increase in the number who doubt the President’s story
from the 55-23 per cent majority who felt that way back
in November.
-By 59-22 per cent, almost 3-to-l, a majority feels
that “the 18 minutes missing from the tape of the
conversation between President Nixon and H.R. Haldeman
were deliberately erased because they would have proven
Mr. Nixon’s involvement in the cover-up.”
-By 60-21 per cent, the public simply does not
believe the claim that the 18 minutes on the disputed tape
“were erased by mistake by the President’s secretary, Rose
Mary Woods.”
-By 55-22 per cent, a majority now believes that
“the two missing tapes were ordered destroyed because
they would have proven Mr. Nixon knew about the
Watergate cover-up.” This result is considerably higher

n

poll

than the 47-27 per cent plurality who felt the same way
November.
-By 46-42 per cent, most Americans now feel thai
“people should not give President Nixon the benefit of the
doubt in the missing tapes controversy.” Late last year, the
public felt he sould be given “the benefit of the doubt” by
46-43 per cent.
The real doubts the American people have in the
President on the tapes issue are summed up in the 82-13
per cent majority who give Mr. Nixon negative marks on
his “handling of the Watergate tapes." At stake is not only
the believed slipshod manner in which the President h
dealt with the tapes, but the basic question of just what
involvement, if any, he had in the cover-up of the
Watergate case.

Since last May, the number of people who have
become convinced the President knew about the cover-up
while it was going on has risen from 50 to 67 per cent of
the public. Despite his repeated denials that he possessed
knowledge of the cover-up, the majorities doubting his
word have mounted.
The deterioration of the President’s credibility on his
cover-up claims has coincided with deep public doubts and
criticism of his handling of the tapes. There is no doubt
now that in his behavior on the tapes, Mr. Nixon has gone
a long way toward losing his trial by public opinion over
Watergate. Put bluntly, the people think the President has
not been forthcoming on the tapes, and the only reason
they can give for his action is the growing suspicion that he
cannot afford to reveal his conversations on the subject of
Watergate during 1972 and 1973.
Throughout the long months during which the
Watergate controversy has raged, it has been evident that a
missing link in the case against the President was any
specific charge which could leveled against him. A finding
of negligence in the handling of the tapes by Judge Sirica
clearly would trigger a public reaction in favor of
impeachment. That is why die tapes have become a central
part of the drama now taking place on whether this
President will remain in the White House for his full term.

Realignments
and altercations
The hockey Bulls defeated two Division II
opponents while winning six of nine contests during the
Christmas recess to upgrade their chances for the playoff
tournament in March. Buffalo’s latest conquest was t
methodical 8—3 decision over New England College at
Holiday Twin Rinks on Friday night. The Bulls had
defeated another Division II squad, American
International, 4-3, in the final of the latter’s Holiday
tournament. Buffalo’s record stands at 11—8 (3—0 in
Division D). Buffalo also defeated Lake Forest twice,
dropped two games to Western Michigan and split a pair at
Ithaca during the vacation.
The Bulls who had IS Division II opponents on their
schedule at die start of the season, found that number
reduced to seven when the ECAC issued a mid—season
release which announced the reinstitution of a Division III

games), Rochester Tech (two games) and Framingham

Wright refused to allow the the Bulls to begin the
secoifd contest when told that Perry and Sylvester could
not play. “Under NCAA rules, they were eligible to play,”
said Wright. “They called Fred Jacoby, commissioner of
the CCHA, who informed me that under CCHA rules
players receiving game misconducts for abusive language
were ineligible for the following game. I told him that
there was no way that we were going to play under those
conditions, so they agreed to play the game under
protest.” The Broncos won the contest, 5—1. nullifying a
possible protest.
The Bulls resume their schedule Wednesday night at
AIT prior to visiting St. Lawrence on Saturday.

Bulls attend forum
in ‘sunny’ Florida
by Steve Lustig
Spectrum Staff Writer
Crammed into two vans, the
swimming Bulls trekked to sunny

Ft. Lauderdale, Florida during the
mid-semester recess to participate
in the Ft. Lauderdale Swim
Forum. The forum consisted of
130 college squads. Buffalo
participated in three workouts
each day, occupying a good
portion of their time. Coach Bill
Sanford,
who was the
Secretary-Treasurer of the swim

Contributing Editor

Buffalo’s wrestling Bulls were crushed by
national power Clarion State 32-6 last Wednesday,
but then rolled over a weak Georgia Tech squad on
Friday, 45-3. Buffalo had downed Brockport 30-9
on January 12. This brought Ed Michael’s grapplers
to 13-1 for the season.
The contrast between the Clarion and Georgia
Tech matches went beyond the reversal of scores and
difference in the caliber of opponents. In Clarion,
the match was viewed by 4000 excited,
wrestling-hungry central Pennsylvanians bent on
revenging last year’s loss to Buffalo, the only blemish
on Clarion’s 1972-73 record. The Yellowjacket
contest took place Friday afternoon before a few
hundred listless fans in Clark Hall. Despite a sign
hung by Clarion’s cross-country team calling for
revenge against Buffalo, Golden Eagle coach Bob
Bubb claimed that the match was not as big as it
might have been. Last year, after the Eagles lost in
Buffalo, Bubb was anxious to see the Bulls come to
Clarion. However, the Eagles had already lost two
matches this year on an upgraded schedule that
included a recent western trip with six matches in
eight days. “Our program is geared for the national
championships,” Bubb commented. Bubb has been
very successful: Clarion had three national titlists
last year and five in the last two seasons.

Eagles fired up
Bubb might have played down the match a little
(by contrast, Bull coach Ed Michael told his team
that it was the opportunity of a lifetime since
Clarion is ranked first in the east and the Bulls fifth),
but his wrestlers would have none of it. They came

matches and were only beaten once. At 134 lbs.,
Buffalo’s Jim Young dominated Jack Davis, 15-5,
avenging an earlier loss to Davis in a holiday
tournament.

The Bulls realized that the Golden Eagles had
three national champs in the lineup and hoped to
win by exploiting Clarion’s weak spots. It was ironic
that Jerry Nowakowski and Wade Schalles were
introduced before the match as the 158-pound
opponents, when in fact the Bulls would not waste
their star against the two-time national champ.
Nowakowski would be pushed up a weight class to
167 and Schalles would wrestle 150-pounder Ron
Parker, if anyone. Michael even toyed with the idea
of a strategic forfeit to Schalles.

Major upsets
All the strategy in the world would not have
helped as Buffalo suffered major upsets in three
bouts they had to win. Nowakowski suffered his first
loss of the year against Chris Clark, and at 190 the
still unbeaten Charlie Wright had to settle for a tie.
But the biggest defeat occurred when a tie was taken
away from co-captain Bill Jacoutot by a stalling
penalty with only seven seconds left. In fairness to
Jacoutot, the situation should have been ruled a
stalemate and the match a draw, but Jacoutot had to
win and a tie would have helped little.
After the match, Bubb concluded that his team
had been strengthened by their grueling western
swing. “It got us in shape and accustomed to good
competition,” Bubb said. Similarly, Michael saw
some benefit in Buffalo’s otherwise dreary loss. “A
lesson in humility never hurt anyone,” Michael
concluded.

‘‘They (FBI officials) told me quite frankly that the
(Bureau) informers within the Black Panthers had been
told to align themselves with either the Cleaver faction or
the Newton faction and intensify the split," one college
professor who had consulted with Bureau official recently
told the Boston Pkbenix.

FBI documents detail campaign
of disruption aimed at New Left
WASHINGTON (LNS)
Under pressure of a
Federal court order, the FBI has released documents which
detail an extensive three year campaign by the Bureau to
“disrupt and otherwise neutralize the activities of the
various New Left Organizations, their leadership and
adherents.’* The document
directives from then-FBI
director J. Edgar Hoover to regional offices were made
public after a 26- month court battle waged by a Ralph
Nader legal group on behalf of NBC newsman Carl Stem.
The two documents released were the directives in
which Mr. Hoover first set up the “Counterintelligence
Program,” called COINTELPRO, and later discontinued it.
The Freedom of Information Clearing House won access to
the documents in court and the FBI chose not to appeal
the decision and handed over the two documents.
In the first memo from Mr. Hoover, dated May 8,
1968, the director announces; “the Bureau is instituting a
Counterintelligence Program directed against the New Left
movement and its key activist.” Mr. Hoover explained that
“the purpose of this program is to expose, disrupt and
otherwise neutralize the activities of the various New Left
organizations, their leadership and adherents.”
-

Frustrate efforts
The memo explains that the goal of the program
must be to “frustrate every effort of these groups and
individuals to consolidate their forces or to recruit new or
youthful adherents.” Mr. Hoover stressed that “no
opportunity should be missed to capitalize upon
organizational and personal conflicts of their leadership.”
Among the suggestions Mr. Hoover offers to do the
job is to use “the cooperation of reliable news media
sources.” He also warned that when using the press in this
manner, caution must be taken that “the source will not
reveal the Bureau’s interest or betray our confidence.”
The memo indicates that this was not the only such
activity conducted by the FBI but rather would serve “to
complement and stimulate our accelerated intelligence
investigations.” Mr. Hoover did warn, however, that this
mission was particularly sensitive and stressed that “the

nature of this new endeavor is such that under no
circumstances should the existence of the program be Kent State plot?

He stressed that “law and order is mandatory for any
civilized society to survive” and again emphasized that
“the importance of this new endeavor cannot and will not
be overlooked.”
In a much briefer memo issued on April 27,1971, it
was announced that “to afford additional security to our
sensitive techniques and operations, it is recommended the
COINTELPROS operated by the Domestic Intelligence
Division be discontinued.” That memo reported that “at
the present time this Division operates several
COINTELPROS directed at the NEW Left, white hate
groups, U. S. Communist Party, Black extremists and
Socialist Workers Party. The memo states that “although
successful over the years” these programs should be
discontinud “for security reasons because ot their
sensitivity.”
Appropriately timed
The Hoover memo announcing the program was
dated May 8, 1969, about one monthe after the
Assassination of Martin Luther King (with the black
rebellions that followed it) and in the midst of about one
month after the assassination of Martin Luther King
University. The memo terminating the program “for
security reasons” was issued on April 28, 1971.
The events of that brief three year period were
significant for the legt. Major splits occurred in the
Students for a Democratic Society and the Black Panther
Party. Campus rebellions peaked the left. Major splits

Such information has led people like Peter Davies,
the author of The Truth About Kent State ,to speculate
that the killing there were a calculated effort to clamp the'
lid on student protest. Davies suggests that future
historians may find “that Kent State was the worst can of
worms in the Watergate era.”
The “secutity reasons” for why the program was
dropped can also be examined in terms of events of that
time period. The termination memo was dated April 28,
1971. A little more than a month earlier March 8, 1971
a still unknown group calling itself the “Citizen’s
Commission to Investigate the FBI” broke into the Media,
Pa. office of the FBI and tdok all files, bulletins and
memos in the office.
Three weeks later they began to mail copies of
selected documents detailed the Bureau’s policies of
political repression. Some of the documents come under
unapprehended
the heading COINTELPRO. The still
Citizens’ Commission continued to send out documents
for the next several months.

Buffalo swordsmen shine in

Hobart bout despite vacation
replied matter-of-factly, “Of course.”

by David J. Rubin
Spectrum staff Writer
Despite the three-week vacation layoff,
Buffalo’s fencing team thumped Hobart 19-8 at
Qark Hall last Wednesday night. It was the third
straight win for the Bulls, upping their recond to 3-1,
while Hobart’s mark slipped to 2-2.
Bull assistant coach Jules Goldstein was
confident of victory before the contest, but
expressed concern over the long layoff. Goldstein
commented: “If 1 had to fence after three weeks
without practice, 1 know I‘d be in trouble.
Sometimes with these boys, two or three touches
can bring them around. I hope we can do it.”
Hobart, on the other hand, had a full week of
post-vacation practice under its belt. When asked if
his squad would win, Hobart’s coach John Burke

EDDIE KENDRICKS

The Statesmen got off to a solid
start, scoring victories in two of the first three sabre
bouts. Buffalo came back with two of three bouts in
epee and a sweep in foil, and went on to win
convincingly. The Bulls were surprisingly quiet after

the win. Goldstein remarked, “I knew they would do
it,” and co-captain Howie Forman observed, “I
expected sabre to do better.”
The Bulls provided some outstanding individual
performances. Gerry Manna continued his leadership
as the top Buffalo fencer as he won all three of his
foil bouts. His record is now 9-2. Forman also swept
three bouts in epee. Tom Giblin, Tom Gately, and
co-captain Steve Munz also had perfect nights. The
Bulls swept all three events, winning sabre 5-4, epee
6-3, and foil 8-1. Buffalo’s “B” team also upset the
same hooart squad by a score of 15-12.

This course will provide students with a framework for understanding the development of technology in an historical
and unplanned change might have on the environment
and value of change, as an aid in planning. The first half
areas such as the history of technological change, the
crisis, prediction as a tool for planning and the Delphi

and economical framework, defining the impact that both planned
(social and physical) and developing tools for measuring the impact

periods will focus on a view of man as a religious being not provided for in other courses, the view of anthropology,
philosophy/existentialism, theology and sociology. We will be concerned with questions of psychology, human emotional

CB 170-A; SEMINAR IN RESIDENTIAL EDUCATION
Thursday evenings, 5 7 p.m.
Piano lounge, Clinton Hall (North Campus)
Registration No. 131166
R. Oliver Gibson, Clifford Wilson, instructors
-

This is a seminar devoted to issues concerned with management of residential collegiate activities so
that intellectual inquiry thrives. Education will be viewed from various perspectives, with special emphasis given to a view of
management as drama in which the script is collaboratively written and performed as a way of developing shared
understandings. The seminar is intended to promote conscious analytic attention to the evolution of residential collegiate life
in College B. The course is most likely to be of interest to those College B students who are interested in participating in the

governance of College B or who wish to gain a deeper insight into residential education or who are interested in gaining an
initial acquaintance with the field of administration, particularly as it applies to the College and university; however, all
students with an interest in the field are encouraged to participate.

Special Note:

There are NO openings remaining for the College B Music lessons for
spring semester. We hope to provide an expanded program of lessons in various
instruments for the fall semester, 1974.

�Vietnam

War in Indochina is officially
over, but can peace survive?
by Marc Jacobson
City Editor

It had been nearly a year since the signing of the
January cease-fire agreement that ended American
involvement in the Vietnam “conflict.” Henry Kissinger’s
stepping stone to the Nobel Peace Prize was met last
January with a feeling of euphoria in this country and
around the world. By signing an armistice, we ended the
civil war that had plagued that little country in Southeast
Asia for 14 years.
Or so we thought. ‘It has always been clear,” as Dr.
Kissinger himself said, “that a lasting peace could come
about only if neither side sought to achieve everything it
had wanted, indeed that stability depended on the relative
dissatisfaction of all the parties concerned. And therefore,
it was clear that whether this agreement brings a lasting
peace or not depends not only on its provisions, but pn the
spirit in which it is implemented.”
The return of our POW’s, the withdrawl of all
American troops and the subsequent end of the draft
caused us to be ecstatic. But slowly, in bits and pieces, the
agreement began to deteriorate. In April, the exchange of
civilian prisoners between the Saigon government and the
Viet Cong broke down. Mistrust and irreconsilable
positions have dominated the negotiations in Paris
designed to establish free elections in South Vietnam. The
negotiators have not met for the last eight weeks.
The joint military commissions designed to make the
cease-fire work have been marred by numerous accounts of
non-cooperation. The four-power international
commission designed to supervise the cease-fire, whose

Province, one day after the Communists’ most spectacular
attack since the cease-fire, a raid on South Vietnam’s
largest petroleum depot just outside Saigon. The rocket
attack destroyed 18 million gallons ofpetroleum products,
which represents as much as 45 percent of all civilian
stocks in the country.
Saigon is maintaining that the recent Viet Cong
attacks on the Central Highlands and on the oil fields
indicate a major Communist offensive is in the works. But
the South Vietnamese army under the direction of
President Nguyen Van Thieu, has not adopted the usual
defensive posture before an expected offensive.

discontent with theThieu government.
President Thleu has moved with deliberate slowness
in allowing non-Communists and neutralists into his
government, has silenced opposition newspapers and held
thousands of political prisoners in Saigon jails; these
repressive actions have not helped his popularity. The
question is whether the South Vietnamese army and air
force, with the civilian leadership handicapped by
domestic problems, will be able to repel the Communist

offensive.

at this time, the United States was
preparing to launch a major bombing offensive designed to
end the war and bring the Communists to the bargaining
table. The UJS. destroyed dikes, hospitals, people, and
roads, and ultimately withdrew from the conflict.
But with these recent developments, the rationale
behind the January cease-fire becomes dear. President
Nixon, under intense pressure to win his re-election and
implement his “secret plan” to end the war first pledged in
his campaign of 1968, wanted to get out of Vietnam.
His plan was to remove American troops from the
conflict, proclaim peace in Southeast Asia, and ‘let the

summer, has proved totally ineffective.
Obviously, then, the diplomatic peace mechanisms
established by our Nobel prize-winning Secretary of State,
and his counterpart Le Due Tho (who refused the Peace
Prize on the grounds that true peace had not been
achieved), have collapsed. It is interesting to note that the
cease-fire Dr. Kissinger established for the Middle East is
also breaking down.

50,000 killed
The war itself had become as brutal and deadly as
before the US. pullout. The Saigon Government claims
11,233 of its soldiers have been killed and claims to have
killed 40,082 Viet Cong, a figure generally beleived by
experts to be inflated fourfold. The South Vietnamese Air
Force, supplied with United States bombers, is continuing
a steady stream of attacks on Communits positions,
making 124 bombing raids in one day last week.
News Item: The United States aircraft carrier Midway was
maneuvering into position off North Vietnam in the Gulf
of Tonkin, it was reported last weekend. Additionally, the
Midway was reported flying reconnaissance missions over
the country, despite warnings from Hanoi that such
“obvious” acts of provocation would probably lead to a
resumption of intense hostility.
President Nixon has frequently warned Hanoi that if
it flagrantly ignores the Cease-fire agreement, the U.S.
might resume aerial bombing of North Vietnam, although
Congressional legislation forbids this and any attempt
would be sure to ignite an intense domestic debate.

Feature

Vincent Copeland has written a book entitled The
dime of Martin Sostre. In describing the July 1967
incident, in which police claim they saw Mr. Sostre sell
heroin, he reports that according to one of three youths
who were in the store at the time, a policeman pulled a
package out of his pocket and exclaimed “Aha here it is!
See what we found, Marty?” This package was later found
to contain 11 gins sine envelopes of heroin and was used as
evidence at Mr. Sostre’s trial.
In his book, Mr. Copeland discusses the possibility
that Martin Sostre was a drug runner. A drug pusher would
never work for two years at a steel plant, as Mr. Sostre did
at Bethlehem Steel to make money to support his store,.
Mr. Copeland commented. ‘T And it utterly impossible to
imagine a human being deciding to work an extra year at
this kind of labor after he has already established a front
for illegal (and physically easy) operations and is set to
begin them,” he wrote.
Mr. Copeland further believes Mr. Sostre was
wrested because he was a threat to the existing power
structure. Eleven months after the arrest, Buffalo Police
Cbmmissioner Frank Felicetta appeared before the House
Un-American Activities Committee in Washington to
testify about the 1967 uprising in Buffalo’s ghetto. Martin
Sostre was charged with arson and riot originally, but these
charges were dropped. Mr. Copeland wrote that
Commissioner Felicetta “revealed that he too understood
the real crime of Martin Sostre, but that he had arrested
Martin for it, not the narcotics charge. Strangely enough,
he devoted considerable energy and attention to the
charges that had been withdrawn in the Sostre case.”

Bound and gagged
Mr. Copeland also noted that the narcotics charge or
the issue of heroin addiction was never even mentioned
daring the Committee’s session.
Martin Sostre and Geraldine Robinson were arrested.

Mr. Sostre’s bail was originally set at $50,000 and later
reduced to $12,500. He had. a great deal of difficulty
obtaining a lawyer because of the controversial nature of
die case. Eventually he acted as his own counsel, and
contested the fact that he was tried before an all-white
jury, as well as the fact that he could not adequately
prepare his case while he was in prison. His bail was never

Maximum security
The police offered to let Ms. Robinson go if she
pleaded guilty. HOwever, because this would have implied
Mr. Sostre’s guilt, she refused and served her sentence.
Mr. Sostre was placed in Attica Prison for one night,
but according to Ms. Fischer, they refused to keep him due
to the unstable atmosphere there after the 1971 riots. He
was then transferred to Green Haven Correctional Facility,
a maximum security prison, where he was placed in
solitary for a week and then told by the warden that this
was a warning of what could be done to him, Ms. Fischer
reported. After spending two months in the prison
population, he was again placed in solitary for “practicing
law without a license,” after he tried to mail a legal
certificate to Ms. Robinson.
Before and after this second trial, he was transferred
to Walkill Prison. Mr. Sostre attempted to form a labor
union among prison workers there, and was then moved to
the Auburn Correctional Facility. After two weeks, Mr.
Sostre succeeded in organizing another labor union and a
strike soon broke out among the workers in the license
plate shop. He was then put back in solitary confinement
on November 7, 1972.
Specter of brainwashing
In a retort to claims by Assemblyman Arthur O. Eve
and a civil attorney and State University of Buffalo law
professor Herman Schwartz that Mr. Sostre was put in
solitary as .harassment for his labor activities, Auburn
Superintendent Robert J. Henderson said in a press release
that “Sostre has been placed in ‘special housing’ because
he refused to shave off his beard,” after being given three
weeks to do so. His beard is reportedly one-quarter inch
long.
On December 19, 1972, Mr. Sostre was moved to
Clihton Prison, where he has remained in solitary ever
since. Mr. Sostre and his lawyers felt that he was placed
there pending completion of the Adirondack Diagnostic
and Treatment Center being built in part of the

second-degree assault. “The victim gets charged with the
crime,” Ms. Fischer commented on this event.
If Mr. Sostre is convicted on this felony charge, he
may face a life-imprisonment sentence under the recidivist
statute for three-time felony offenders. Mr. Sostre’s first
felony was a narcotics charge in New York City in 1952,
which got him a six-to-twelve year sentence, of which he
served all twelve years, as well as four years in solitary for
trying to obtain rights for Muslims in prison. Although he
is no longer a Muslim, Mr. Sostre was once a member of
the nation of Islam.
Ms. Fischer claims Mr. Sostrc is being denied the
right to see a minister, which violates his constitutional
right to freedom of religion. He is also not permitted visits
from members of his defense committee or a lawyer,
which Ms. Fischer claims violates his right to legal counsel.
‘They’re throwing the book at him,” she said, “and
they’re throwing out the whole United States

Constitution.”
Official support
Several Federal and State Congressmen have tried to
intervene in the case. Among them are U.S.
Representatives Charles B. Rangel, and Herman Badillo,
State Assemblyman Arthur O. Eve and State Senator
Robert Garcia. However, it is extremely difficult for these
officials to help Mr. Sostre for several reasons.
Federal officials have little power over state
correctional facilities, as they do not control the funding
for these institutions, according to a spokesman at
Representative Rangel’s office. The spokesman added that
the most an official can do is request an investigation of
prison conditions. These investigations are conducted by
the prison officials themselves, however, who are not likely
to report controversial findings. “We try, but we have been
able to do nothing so far as the New York State prison
system goes,” the spokesman said.
Another spokesman at Mr. Badillo’s office claimed:
“We don’t have the staff or resources to undertake major
investigations. Prison reform just doesn’t have a big
constituency. We’ve been trying to push a prisoner’s bill of
rights, but there’s not much constituency for it.”

First, the ‘big’ issues

Although some reform measures have been
introduced, such as the ombudsman program co-sponsored
by Rep. Rangel, which would provide an impartial legal
advisor for prisoners, Mr. Rangel’s spokesman said: “Right
now much of minor legislation in Congress is being
subordinated to big crisis issues, such as Watergate and the
energy problem.”
Martin Sostre has limited support at this time, but
despite his lengthy imprisonment, he has accomplished a
great deal for his cause. He is currently being backed by
Amnesty International a prestigious, worldwide,
non-political organization for the defense of political
prisoners. The group has consulting status with the United
Nations and Ts a member of UNESCO. Among the
members on their Board of Directors is William F
Buckley. They have chapters in 63 countries.
Amnesty International usually doesn’t back
prisoners from the United States, as Americans usually get
some semblance of a fair trial as compared to other
countries. They would not back Angela Davis. However, a
spokesman said: “We became convinced that Martin Sostre
had been the victim of an international miscarriage of
justice because of his political beliefs.”
Mr. Sostre’s case “is one of the most appalling
injustices in history, and he will never get out unless
people start supporting him, demanding an end to the
conditions of his imprisonment, as well as an end to his
imprisonment altogether,” Ms. Fischer said. She urges that
anyone interested in supporting Martin Sostre contact the
Sostre Defense Committee (Box 839, Ellicott Station,
Buffalo, N.Y. 14205) for more information. Letters of
protest may be sent to the following addresses; Nelson A.

�IQ tetto

What do they really measure?
Editor’s Note: On Friday and Monday The Spectrum
published a two-part series concerning die debate over
whether genetic or environmental factors were more
responsible fen individual differences on IQ- tests. Either
the environmentalist approach, that some
argument
be
groups may
culturally deprived, or the Jensen/Shockley
that
blacks average 15 points lower than whites
argument,
assumes that IQ
because they are genetically inferior
tests are accurate predictors of general intelligence. Much
evidence, however, suggests that the IQ tests built into the
school system may be nothing more than an Anglo
yardstick.
-

-

Standardized tests have become as much a part of the
school system as textbooks and number two pencils. As
the current crop of college seniors is wading through the
GRE’s, LSAT’s, and MCAT’s, just as high school seniors
are grappling with SAT’s, the public school population is
being measured with what used to be called IQ tests,
although they now have more euphemistic names. But IQ
tests operate on the croneous assumption that there is a
single phenomenon called “general intelligence,” argues
John Garcia, professor of Psychology at the State
University at Stony Brook.
‘The designers of IQ tests built into them some
intrinsic assumptions that make them useless for
comparing the intelligence of biosocial groups,” explains
Dr. Garcia. Tracing the history of tip classic IQ test, the
Stanford-Binet test, he explains how Stanford University
professor Lewis Terman modified Alfred Binet’s test in
1916 to insure standardization from an American school
population of widely diverse ethnic backgrounds. ‘Terman
restricted his choice to items from the school curriculum
that school authorities deemed important: reading,
writing, arithmetic,” explained Dr. Garcia.
Narrow measure
“The traits manifestdd in Picasso’s art, or those
separating a master-mechanic from a ten-thumbed
apprentice, were pushed aside into the “special-abilities”
category,” he observed. If items from the machine shop,
music class, art class, and other areas had been included,
“concepts about what and whom to regard as intelligent
might be broader than they arc.” Thus, “to insure validity
the testers included in the group
in the standardization
only the children of white, English-speaking parents. The
Stanford-Binet became an Anglo IQ test,” Dr. Garcia
concluded.
As time went on, the testers built in controls for both
age and sex, but not for cultural backgrounds. They
accounted for the maturing intellect by divising an
Intelligence Quotient (IQ) derived by dividing a subject's
mental age (raw score on test) by his chronological age. A
person’s raw score increases until he is about 17, then
begins to decline slowly. Dr. Garcia explains: “A person
who is out of school is not quite as adept at school items
as when he was in school.” IQ’s of persons who remain in
school past age 17 continue to increase, and “while a
person’s ability to deal with the rest of the world often
improves,” said Dr. Garcia, noting that insurance
companies think men over 25 become lower-risk drivers.

Mercer’s method of holding social background constant.

Similarly, “we could easily treat other biosocial
subgroups in the same way. When Chicano children score
lower than Anglos on a test made of Anglo items there’s
no need for debate about hereditary and environmental
factors. All we need to to is to write some items that favor
Chicanos and blend them properly with Anglo items,”
explained Dr. Garcia.
Agreeing that the IQ test is “unfair” when it is used
on minority groups, psychologist Jane R. Mercer wrote:
“A large number of minority persons who can cope very
well with the requirements of their daily lives are being

In tests on minority children. Dr. Mercer found that
Chicano children who did well on IQ tests “were more
likely to have mothers who expect them to get some
college education, have fathers who grew up in cities and
who have completed at least ninth grade, and come from
home-owning families in which English is spoken most all
of the time.” In the same experiment with blacks, she
reached the same conclusion; “Black children who have
the highest IQ’s also come from families that share
characteristics of the average Anglo-American family. What
the IQ test measures, to a significant extent, is the child’s
exposure to Anglo culture. The more “Anglicized” a
non-Anglo child is, the better he does on the IQ test,” Dr.
Mercer concluded.
Controlling the IQ scores of blacks and Chicanos by
holding constant cultural variables, she found black and
Chicano IQ scores to be virtually identical to Anglos. But
when she didn't hold social background constant, she

Breeding equality
Psychological tests have revealed that males and
females score differently on different types of items. In
1937, the Stanford-Binet designers remedied this problem

“Recently, Arthur Jensen, William Shockley and
Richard Hcrmstein have put forth claims that they have,
with IQ tests, found genetic deficiencies of ‘intelligence”
in minority groups,” wrote Dr. Garcia. “They write as if
these deficiencies were real manifestations of the biological
world; they present IQ data as if it were an unbiased
measure of real general intelligence. They have tilted the
IQ minor so far that the original biases are magnified in
their own distortions.”
Dr. Garcia added; “The IQ was not designed to be

In 1971, Willie Griggs, a black worker in North
Carolina, sued the Duke Power Company for refusing to
allow him and 12 other black employees to be promoted
to better jobs unless they got a high school diploma or
scored will on a pair of intelligence tests. The U.S.
Supreme Court ruled 8-0 that no test or educational
requirement can keep a man or woman out of a job unless
the test measures the specific talents needed to do that
job. The result was millions of dollars in back pay for
minority employees. The school system, however,
continues to use “aptitude” tests to determine who is
placed in “faster” and “slower” classes, and who gets into
various colleges and universities, and eventually law and
medical schools. The entire Jensen/Shockley argument
presupposes that IQ tests are an accurate measure of
intelligence. Instead, explains Dr. Mercer, “IQ tests are
Anglocentric; they measure the extend to which an
individual’s background matches the average cultural
pattern of American society.”

�Rocky’s resignationaimed at Presidency?
New York (DPI)
Governor Nelson A. Rockefeller
announced yesterday he will
resign from office next Monday,
December 17, to devote his full

Governor Rockefeller. 65, said
his resignation was not aimed at

�FSA land

Proceeds from sale to be
put in fund for Sub-Board
by Ian DeWaal
Campus Editor

The Faculty-Student Association (FSA) and
the verge of an agreement on the
disbursement of proceeds from the expected sale of
the Amherst land soon to be sold by FSA. Under the
proposed agreement,' the monies realized from the
land sale would be put in a trust fund administered
by a third party chosen by FSA. The revenufrom
this trust fund would be given to Sub-Board 1 as long
Sub-Board I are on

as

FSA. If the FSA Board of Directors decides that
Sub-Board I is not representative (presumably by a
majority vote, although this is not stated in the
agreement), then the general membership of FSA
may be convened if thirty days’ notice is given. It
would take a 2/3 vote of that body to divert the
funds from Sub-Board. Under any circumstances,
however, it is required that the proceeds from the
trust be used “for the benefit of students.” “This
gives a lot of assurance that the money will be going

to students,” said Mr. Blumenkrantz.

that organization remained “representative” of

the student body.

Tax refund?

Agreement was reached after successful
negotiations between Sub-Board Executive Director
Steven Blumenkrantz and FSA Secretary Charles
Balkin. A by-laws change to incorporate the proposal
will be presented to the FSA Board of Directors at
tomorrow’s meeting. “It’s not a controversial
proposal,” said Mr. Balkin. “We have just gotten
together on the wording.’

In a matter related to the Amherst land, former
FSA Secretary Tom Schillo presented an oral report
at the last FSA meeting on the tax status of the
Amherst land v Mr, Schillo was asked to prepare the
report after it was alleged that FSA had failed to
take advantage of a Town of Amherst ordinance
allowing landholders of more than 100 acres who
agree not to develop their land for five years, to
claim a 25% property tax exclusion. It was also
claimed that FSA had paid taxes on 534 acres since
purchasing the land in 1964, even though the
organization claimed it owned only 505 acres.
Mr. Schillo attributed the discrepancy to the
methods of land measurement used for the land
transactions in New York. According to Mr. Balkin,
it was reported that it is not the practice to measure
land by acreage but rather by boundaries. “The only
way we know how much land there is is if we have
an exact survey taken,” said Mr. Balkin. “We are
currently having such a survey .”

"

Earlier objections
Earlier in the semester, it appeared that
Sub-Board I might oppose the establishment of a
trust fund whose revenue could be redirected away
from Sub-Board I at the sole discretion of FSA. The
proposal drafted by Mr. Blumenkrantz and Mr.
Balkin meets this problem by including a special
provision for notice of the meeting at which the
change will be considered.
Under the proposed by-laws amendment, thirty
days’ notice must be given before a special
membership meeting could be convened to consider
a by-laws change. This would give Sub-Board I time
to meet with the members of FSA and lobby for its
position, according to Mr. Blumenkrantz.
The proposed amendment states: “For so long

investment income from the separate Fund

Nevertheless, a petition seeking such redress will be
filed with the Amherst Town Board. Originally, it
was reported that the announcement oflhe tax relief
program had been mailed with the tax assessments.
However, the Amherst Clerk’s office denied that this
had been done. “They then said that public notice

anybody on the Board is an avid reader of that

Regents scholarships
forfeited outside NY
The Supreme Court has unanimously upheld the law requiring
New York State Regents Scholarship monies to remain inside the
state. Regents Scholarship winners will still forteit their awards if
they attend college outside New York State.
The law was challenged by a Princeton University student who
qualified for a Regents Scholarship in 1971 but received no award
because he chose to attend college in New Jersey
In drafting his own appeal to the high court, he claimed he was
denied equal treatment with other scholarship winners who
attended New York schools and that this restricted his
constitutional right to interstate travel.
A three-judge district court originally denied the student's
request for damages and an injunction against the scholarship
limitation. It maintained the State’s “historic objective” of
strengthening private education in New York as an alternative to
low-tuition public schools has not been outdated. The Supreme
Court unanimously affirmed this ruling, contending that the
scholarship money should be invested in New York to help its
Colleges meet their operating expenses.
Between 1972 to 1973, 66,000 Regents Scholarship winners
wed their Regents Scholarship. Their awards totaled $283 million.
Last year 7,200 students declined the awards which average $450.
Thoogh some of the awards were declined by students not attending
college, roost of those refusing assistance went to out-of-state

Committees concentrate on
maiden name recognition
by laoqid Schock
Spectrum

Staff Writer

Any woman who tries to retain or regain her
maiden name after getting married quickly becomes
aware of overwhelming bureaucratic and social
obstacles to using any name but her husband’s.
Only Hawaii has a statute specifically requiring a
woman to assume her husband’s name. In every
other state, the common-law that one has the right
to assume any name one chooses, provided there is
no fraud intended should prevail.
In New York a wife is free to use her own name.
There are no New York laws that require a woman
to re-register her automobile or get a new driver’s
license when she marries. According to the New
York Law of Domestic Relations, “Upon entering
the marital status, the wife becomes entitled to use
her husband’s surname. Her use of his surname is
discretionary, and in this day of woman’s
participation in commerce, art, industry and the
professions, it is not rare that married women retain
the use of their maiden names after marriage.”

“Women all over the country have difficult) in
using their own names after marriage. The
[present-day] purpose of die league is to educate
women to the fact that they are legally entitled to
use their own name, since a great many women still
aren’t aware of this,” explained Roby Lyle,

of retaining one’s own name is gaining momentum
through such organizations as the Lucy Stone

The Lucy Stone League was founded in 1921,
after the passage of the women’s suffrage

“obsessed” with the right to use her own name. The
League’s motto was coined by Ms. Stone: “My name
is the symbol of my identity which must not be

of a married woman to use hew own name.
Ruth Hate was a New York journalist who in
1917 married Heywood Broun. If anyone addressed

by Bruce Engel
Contributing Editor

By the last day of my Plimptonian insanity, the
whole thing was starting to dominate my mind. There was
a feeling, not really nervousness (I wasn’t very nervous
because I had nothing to lose), but a great and pervading
sense of difference.
All of a sudden I was a wrestler, or at least, I would
be wrestling. 1 was part of a strange new world. 1 felt apart
from my friends as we sat down to a midnight
Thanksgiving feast the night before the match. I kept
saying to myself: “What am 1 doing here? I have to wrestle
tomorrow,” just as if I were a real athlete in serious
training.

I ate so much turkey, stuffing and
I-don’t-know-what-elsc that I woke up the day of the
match feeling hung over, even though I hadn’t had a drop
to drink. After a light breakfast, I noticed the first of two
bad omens. The night before, one of my friends, now fast
asleep, had pulled his car in the driveway, blocking my
car’s acess to the street, had pulled his car in the driveway,
blocking my car’s access to the street. God was telling me
not to go ahead with this. Instead, 1 just got my friends
keys, pulled the old switcheroo and was off.
Before describing the rest of my eventful day, one
on which I could have gotten arrested for impersonating an
athlete, two loose ends should be tied up.
Light or heavy?
First of all, I had come to the conclusion that 1
could justify to myself, as well as others, cither shaving or
not shaving for the match. So I figured 1 might as well
keep it, seeing as how that’s what I really wanted and it
seemed so silly to hsave. I was little concerned I really
wanted and it seemed so silly to shave. I was little
concerned been asking when I would shave.) I was a bit
disturbed at first to find that no one really cared. Not a
soul said a word about it that day or since.
And after I’d been nearly traumatized by it! Slowly,
1 came to realize that this is how it should be; it never
should have been an issue.
I have yet to mention who my opponent would be.
This had been a touchy point all week. In fairness to me,
Michael was trying to determine who on the team would

weakest possible wrestler on the team. And it had to be
someone reasonably close to my weight. If I were to
wrestle someone heavier, even if he were really bad, 1
would be both out-wrestled and out-weighed, a double
disadvantage. But if 1 were to wrestle the worst of the
lightest guys (118-pounders), it would not only look silly
but, on the slim chance that I did something right, 1 might

A“ few names were kicked around, but the final
selection was Mace Coleman, a 134-pound,freshman from
suburban East Aurora. Without a weigh-in, Mace would
come it at about 140 and I’d only have 20 pounds on him.
Frankly, Coleman is not very good. However, Coach
Michael warned me, he was aggressive and wouldn’t hold
back against me. When he came into the locker room to
get dressed, Michael said: “Are you psyched, Mace?”
Coleman didn’t reply. “Mace won’t need to be psyched,” 1
said, and he didn’t.
I drew my uniform from the equipment room, right
before alumni wrestler Ted Lawson. Lawson, a superb
142-pounder, knew me from last year when he graduated.
“Are you going to wrestle?” he asked.
“Yeah. It kind of cheapens the experience, doesn’t
it?" I replied. Lawson Just laughed a little, the same laugh
as the time he beat me for three bucks in a poker game.
1 had to go back and get a shirt, as it was not
included in the original uniform I received. That was bad
omen number two. 1 had forgotten how much there was to
a wrestling uniform jock, socks, tights, shirt that buttons
under the crotch, shorts that go over the tights, headgear
and warm-up suits. Sometimes I think wrestling should be
an outdoor sport. It felt good to wear the tight-fitting,
bright blue outfit. I looked pretty good in it. At least 1
thought so. 1 could feel eyes looking at me as if I were
someone important.
—

On deck
1 got a feeling of team spirit as we started to warm
up before the match. It is customary for a team to warm
up to music in front of the crowd. Scott Stever, class of
’70 and alumni captain, had brought in some tunes from
several years back for the alumni to warm up to. By this
time I was so much in my own little world that 1 didn’t
even hear them.
My match was the last on the program. I tried to
keep warmed up. During the week, Michael had impressed
the team with the importance of a vigorous warm-up, and 1
was determined to be as prepared as possible. In the back
of my mind, in my hope of all hopes, was the thought that
this could increase my chances from none to slim. I did
numerous calisthenics, stretching exercises and
high-kicking sprints, designed to relieve the soreness in my
legs
My team spirit got stronger and stronger, especially
as some of' the guys 1 knew took the mat. Roy Guarino,
John Kopalck, Lawson, Stever, Eric Knuutila, and finally
the exciting Bert Ernst, who had a close match with the
varsity’s Charlie Wright. After Bert’s match, just two
before mine, I became absorbed in my own thoughts and
hardly watched Tony Policare’s heavy-weight match.
•Stay off your back’
Our coach, former varsity mentor Bob Wilson,
wasn’t much help, 1 asked him if he had any suggestions.
He told mt to stay off my back. I had figured that much
out for myself, though I was skeptical of my ability to last
for the duration of my impending three-minute bout.
As Policare’s match ended, 1 started to shed my
warm-up suit. 1 wanted to look cool, so 1 went out on the
mat a fashionable few seconds after Mace did. I ran out to

the encouragement ofmy teammates, only to notice that I
had forgotten my headgear. I guess I was more mervous
than 1 thought. After 1 went back for the headgear, we
shook hands and the match began.
The actual match was an anticlimax. For all that 1
knew and all that I had learned during the week, I did very
little. Jim Young’s advice, that as an inexperienced
wrestler I should be defensive on the feet and let my
opponent shoot a takedown first, stuck in the back of my
mind. I was scared to initiate a move for fear of being
countered. I only realized after the match that this was the
wrong attitude. I was doing this for the sheer joy of trying
something, and as it turned out, I tried very little.
Missed pancake
1 didn’t have to wait long before Mace shot in on me.
I held my own for the first two of his offensives. The
secon;time 1 even started to set up a pancake, a spectacular
move in which one slams one’s opponent down to the mat
right on to his back. It’s a risky move, however, and
During the week, Michael had impressed the team with the
importance of
A few seconds later, Mace got ahold of my left leg
and was not to be denied. Seeing he had me this time, I
went to go out of bounds before he could finish the move
and be awarded the points. But he received two points for
a takedown just before I struggled out of bounds. I looked
up at the clock. What seemed like an eternity had only
been 38 seconds. I was two points down, in the bottom
position and starting to get tired.
I spent the remaind :r f the match in the bottom
position, trying vainly to escape or crawl out of bounds to
stay out of trouble. But the only move I knew well enough
to try was a simple standup, control his hands and run.
Before 1 could stand up, Mace hooked my left leg with his
right and then broke me down to the mat. It was hard
enough to work up to my knees, and impossible to get my
leg free to stand up. I felt helpless.
From wrestler to reporter
With about ten seconds left in the second period, the
inevitable happened. I can proudly say I was fighting it all
the way, but once he started to roll me over, 1 was
through. 1 thought maybb 1 could last till the end of the
period. Then 1 would be on top the last period and could
probably avoid getting pinned. But it was not to be. notice
that I had forgotten my headgear. 1 guess I was more
nervous than threw a tantrum. I took off the headgear and
threw it down violently. I walked around gloomily, kicking
things every now and then. In a few minutes, I calmed
down. I was made, not at having lost, but at having done
so very little. What a waste all the practice was if 1 was
going to wrestle like that.
The match being over, I resumed my role as reporter.
I only had one question for one person.
Reporter: “Mace, were you insulted when the coach
asked you to wrestle me?”
Coleman: “Well, I’m realistic about it. The coach has
been fair. He gave everyone the same chance. I know
where I stand on the team.”
I knew where I stood too.

�Op art

New York’s aesthetic art
by Erich E. Rassow
Spectrum Art Critic
New York
Vacation time is usually spent with at
least one day designated for sludging
around and visiting the art galleries in the
city. Everyone can just about predict the
effect of making it to the main line
museums, buying a few post cards and
other ditties, and perhaps indulging in
contemplation at one of the museum
restaurants.

Relaxed by the sound of the water
fountains at the Metropolitan or stilled by
the quiet imperturbable position of
statuary in the sculpture court at the
Modern, this potential Zeitgeist of food,
thought and art is usually subsumed in a
mixed confusion of cafeteria clatter, prices,
table space, and the momentary loss of
visionary involvement connected with the
details of either getting out of the city or
find the next place listed on the travel
agenda.

To cure these highway blues, here’s an
itinerary that will take you uptown and
down and which might give you a taste of
the variety of things which are in New
York. Get involved in the art and not in its
externalities.

They are still not, nor will they ever be,
in the complete hit or miss situation of a
true downtown gallery such as O.K. Harris
(more miss than hit) but they do extend
themselves toward the idea of thought art.
The Albright-Knox bought a couple of
monuments from them, the glass room of
Lucas Samaras and the recent, aggressively
bristling, sculpture by Dubuffet. In other
words there is a kind of assurance in doing
business on that street which both

Photographers see in this movement a

Nothing can be further from the truth The
limitations of photography are so clearly
pointed out by these paintings that any
comparison, except on the most superficial
level, is really at best a misconstrued source
of second hand information or at worst a
kind of picture politiking.
Claude Monet was, in his way, a
photo-realist. He taught us to see natural
light effects as clusters of light reflectors
making up individual objects. Another
artist, Joseph Raffael, who was exhibited
at the Nancy Hoffman Gallery last month,
took these ideas and gave palpable
substance to reflective quality. His “water"
paintings make you feel the density in the
swirling eddies of water of streams and
ponds; the recognition of which is usually
camouflaged by environmental distractions
such as smell.

Jerry Ott at the Meisel Gallery takes
another step using the scientific visual
method of photo-realism to capture the
internal luminescence of reflctive materials.
In addition to the commanding presence
and stature of the figures, we quickly start
concentrating on the reflective objects
within the painting. The drapped clear
vinyl sheets strung from a clothes line or
the stretches of metal which back the
figures emanate as if photons of energy are
sensuously cast about within the contained
skin of the material. The direction of
energy is lateral to the picture plane and
we get a fast luminescent sliding motion,
making for an extremely labile perceived
reflection.
Try and make visits to these two
galleries. They could be encouraging
institutions for the state of art and maybe
yourself.

Took many cooks...
It is no cheap exaggeration to
say that the people involved in
making the film are similar to the
fellows in Hart’s study-group.
Each of them has a different idea
of what the movie is about.
Instead of making harmonious
music, their notions blare with
aimless dissonance.

Run-in
He wants to make all kinds of
theatrical decisions that arc in the
director’s domain. The reason that
he does not simply become a
director is easy
he can’t. By his
own admission, he is too
unfamiliar with the form,
technique, and grammar of film.
Instead of taking time to learn his
craft, he sees producing as a
short-cut to directing.
Formerly, it was as if the
director conducted the
“orchestra” while the producer
footed the bill for the
instruments. Now, producer and
director struggle on the podium
for the baton. And, by the way,
Thompson has a producing
partner (a Mr. Paul) so it is really
a 3-way fight between the two
producers and director Jim
Bridges.
As if this weren’t bad enough,
the film is based on a book by

‘Tim, your acting has a very

Most of this might have been
forgiven if the movie had been

of what people and their world is
about like in (dare it be said?) a
work of art. Instead of worrying
about whether to make a film for

would tell you it’s an apt rubric

�High School prisons
The public school system thinks it has a
monopoly on education. While boring and
alienating its students
actually prisoners
are legally forced to be in school with
rules and regulations, piles of meaningless
facts to be regurgitated, and a rigid diet of
five subjects, the system cannot conceive that
learning could actually take place outside
its walls. Knowledge is force-fed by teachers
and textbooks to adequately prepare
students for the real world. Why, then, does
preparation for the "real" world exclude any
actual experience in that world?
Several logical and
proposals
for improving what is now a high school
prison system have been made by the
National Commission on Reform of
Secondary Schools. Pint, they recognize that
the rigid
school curriculum, designed for
a uniform mass of acquiescent zombies, must
be made flexible
to meet individual
needs. Criteria must be loose enough to allow
individuals to explore diverse areas and
determine their own interests and abilities on
an independent course.
They advise that students be allowed to
receive credit for out-of-school experiences
and job training. While many traditional
educators are sure to detest the idea, what
could be more educational than actual job
experience? Employment laws should be
revamped to allow younger students to work
for school credit, and dropouts should be
able to earn diplomas by receiving credit for
work wpcricnc6
An entire college education, not just two
years as recommended, should be guaranteed
every student who wants one, although two
years would be a good start. But college is

career direction and are basically in school

credits in hand, and find no better
alternatives than when they entered.
One way to correct this trend is to offer
comprehensive, individualized vocational
guidance at the high school level. Students
should be made aware that their purpose in
school is to find a meaningful field for
themselves, not simply to fulfill
requirements, pass the Regents and go on to
the next level. Everyone shouldn't go to
college
vocational schools would be a far
better alternative for many than plodding
thrombi to a meaningless liberal arts degree
and those that do go on to college should
have some idea of the areas in which they
want to concentrate.
—

—

Independent study and flexible courses at
both the high school and college levels will
leave many options open by enabling a
student to determine his interests far better
than the present rigidity of "requirements."
Integrating job experience and out-of-school
endeavors with standard classroom fare can
only make education that much more real
and relevant.

Lowering the compulsory school age
from 16 to 14 (as recommended) is a good
idea in theory; but instituting it at the
present time would in fact place thousands of
kids on the streets, unable to find jobs but
unwilling to tolerate the mind-numbing
conformity of high school. But if the
essentially exciting process of learning can
become more flexible and individualized, if
the rigid high school classrooms which now
stifle any creative thought can be reformed
and expanded
then the "compulsory"
school age might feasibly be lowered. The
fact that our high schools have become
custodial institutions for adolescents whom
we must force to attend only underscores the
urgent need to reform an antiquated system.

Nothing could be further from the truth.
Fighting in Vietnam has steadily risen until it
now surpasses the level of pre-"cease-fire"
hostilities and is ominously approaching
all-out war. But as the Vietnamese, however
violently, attempt to resolve their own
problems, ostensibly without American
interference, remember this; South Vietnam
President Nguyen Van Thieu is an
American-supported dictator. He has silenced
all opposition newspapers, and is holding
thousands of political opponents prisoner in
brutal tiger cages, built right here in the
U.S.A. and shipped to Saigon for Thieu's
perverted uses. Gen. Thieu rules by sheer
force with an American-financed military
machine.

other reactionary military regimes supported
by American business interests, the
dictatorship in South Vietnam is not
surprising
except, perhaps, if you believed
the myth that the reason 45,000 Americans
were killed, thousands more were wounded
and populated cities were bombed daily was
to preserve democracy in Indochina. Tens of
thousands of young people who refused to
kill for their government are in exile, in
hiding or in jail this Christmas. No
reconstruction funds to rebuild Bach Mai
Hospital and war-tom Vietnam ever passed
Congress, but U.S. shipments of arms and
tiger cages continue unabated
so a
U.S.-supported dictator can "fight
Communism."
Gasless Sundays and chilly apartments
are the central American worries this winter.
If mass destruction didn't give them
indigestion after Christmas dinner last'year,
this year's human suffering
Asian or
Anrjerican doesn't stand a chance.

People kwe to look the other way. By
simply refusing to acknowledge reality, they
can avoid accepting any responsibility. This
characteristic was highly evident
most of the years of the Vietnam War. Since
the mass destruction was being inflicted on a
tiny Asian nation thousands of miles away,
there was no need to dwell on it. If reports

Watch Cloael

Last September I paid my I R C. dues ($26, 1
recall), and now 1 am wondering what these dues
paid for. Or rather, what benefits I am receiving that
non-members are not.
To attend an I.R.C. sponsored movie, one must
be an I.R.C. member
or the ‘guest’ of one, so I
wouldn’t really need a card for that. I attended an
I.R.C. movie recently, and no-one even asked to see
my card anyway. Paying for the movies would total
less than $26.
I.R.C. sponsored functions
other than movies
seem to be few and far between. The I R C.
discount flights seem to be poorly organised, if not
non-existant. I noticed an ad in The Spectrum (Dec.
5) stating that the Student Association is offering
discount flights for Christmas. What then, is the
purpose of I.R.C.? Are there things going on that I
don’t know about?
Where did my $26 go?

Recycling helps
To the Editor.

Efforts mentioned in

President Nixon’s

proposals to meet the ever increasing energy crisis
embodied ideas of reducing present use of energy
crisis embodied ideas of reducing present use of
energy supplies and increasing alternative energy
supplies. Unfortunately, almost all measures to be
taken are directed against the individual
not
corporations or commerical enterprises. Many
-

measures advocated will increase the destruction of
our environment. The assumption that President
Nixon is making, is that in the short and long haul,
preservation of the environment and sufficient
energy supplies are conflicting goals. Therefore he
has chosen such courses of action as strip mining and
use of higher polluting fuels.
The Environmental Action Committee believes
that preservation of the natural environment should
be of the utmost concern and sound alternatives to
energy supplies be created which are cohgruent with
this goal. Solar heating is one potential alternative
which has been used in the South to both heat and
cool homes. A G.M. plant in Detroit burns more
unrecyclable paper for heat or electricity. Moreover,
it is wise to employ many more recycling techniques
It takes twenty times as much energy to produce
aluminum ore as it does to remelt it and recycle it. It
takes 1.2 tons of coal to produce one ton of steel
This figure could be reduced through the use of
scrap steel.
On a smaller scale, we encourage individuals to
effectively use the glass or paper recycling centers on
Campus, recycling aluminum at the Coca Cola plant
on Milens Road or National Can Co. at 8800 Main

�PLP Guest Editorial
To the Editor.
When the students at Staten Island Community
College shouted down William Shockley and ran him
off the campus because he advocates genocide, The

Deny racists a free hand
To the Editor.

After students at Staten Island Community
College stopped the racist Prof. Shickley, The New
York Times had an editorial titled “Mobs as
Censors’.’ which began “The disruptive
demonstrators who prevented Dr. William Shockley
from addressing a public forum
are guilty of
subverting the Bill of Rights and academic freedom.”
The mere fact that the N.Y. Times (Number one
U.S. ruling class mouthpiece) went to the length of
printing this editorial shows how worried they and
their masters are about the “concerted nationwide
campaign” to fight racism. Far from criticizing racist
theories, the N.Y. Slime has been a major force in
building them. They never call Shockley a racist, and
they have been printing Arthur Jensen’s racist
...

garbage every chance they get.

As for the nonsense about the Bill of Rights and
academic freedom:
The rulers of the U.S. never nesitate one second
to violate their own Bill of Rights and academic
freedom when it comes to attacking the workers and
students of the world:
1) What did the government have to say about

“academic freedom” when they burned, bombed,
shot, tortured, and imprisoned millions of
Vietnamese, Cambodieans, and Laotians? They
obviously considered their needs to dominate S.E.
Asia more important.
2) What did they have to say about the Bill of
Rights after machine-gunning, beating and jailing
black people in rebellions throughout the U.S. in the

1960’s.
3) The U.S. backed generals in Chile squelched
ALL freedoms with U.S. supplied weapons.
This business about “Academic Freedom” for
racists is a cheap government sponsored fraud to
disarm the anti-racist movement. We are only given

as much “academic freedom” as the ruling class
decides they want us to have at a particular time.
But at this point, some people may still insist
that even if “academic freedom” doesn’t really exist
for us, why should we ourselves deny academic
freedom to anybody?
Well, first of all we are not just denying
academic freedom to “anybody.” We are denying it
to those who would use it as a cover to popularize
racist theories which have nothing to do with science
or honest academic research whatsoever. In spite of
the fact that Shockley has a Nobel Prize for the
transistor, Stanford University had to admit that he
had no credentials in the field of genetics and
therefore couldn’t teach his racial theories for credit.
The rebuttals of many authentic scientists against
the lies of Shockley and Jensen have somehow failed
to get the publicity and endorsement of the
government and mass media which has been given to
Shockley and Jensen.
We are attempting to reverse the present efforts
of the rulers to build racism by stopping their
propaganda machines from functioning, i.e. racist
professors, textbooks, magazines, etc. Certainly
debating and academically exposing racism and racist
theories is crucial, but allowing the racists a free
hand to organize is quite another thing.

Students for

a

Democratic Society

Buffalo

New York Times screamed “Mobs as Censors” and
The Spectrum warned of a “Frightening Trend.” We
in Progressive Labor Party hail those students and
call for more of the same wherever racist organizers
show their faces.
The N. Y. Times and The Spectrum can shout all
they want about Shockley’s right to free speech, and
about the “fascist tactics” of the radicals, but the
fact remains that the ruling class is quite openly
using professors like Shockley, Jensen, and
Herrnstein to establish racism and genocide as
“viable alternatives” and “legitimate scientific
theories” within the universities and among
intellectuals. And its not because there’s been any
“new research and data’ discovered, but because
U.S. imperialism is declining and it needs racism to
carry out more and more wage freezes, budget cuts,
and greater profit making attacks on the working
class, the same way the German capitalists split the
working class with anti-Semitism in the 1930’s.
The ruling class has set in motion the first phase
of an enormous racist propoganda campaign using
the Big Lie technique Hitler invented. The Big'Lie is
that blacks are either genetically or environmentally
an inferior race. There is absolutely zero evidence for
this. (Since- Prof. Rising at UB says there is such
evidence, we challenge him to a public debate
anytime he wants.) But lack of evidence didn’t stop
Hitler, and its not stopping the U.S. rulers from
inundating us with “blacks are inferior” articles in
scores of magazines including the Harvard
Educational Review, Psychology Today, Atlantic
Monthly, The Humanist (published by U B. Prof.
Paul Kurtz) and the New York Times Magazine.
Prof. Jensen and his disciples like Shockley, who rely
exclusively on doctored up “data” (Jensen actually
lies about the source of his data-) and scientific
doubletalk to “prove’ balcks are genetically inferior,
are being hailed as great scientists by the Wall Street
Journal, and the New York Times. The Big Lie
technique is to parade these proponents of the
Master Race theory before the entire public. The
strength of this kind of propoganda, however, dear
defenders of free speech for racists, depends entirely
on stressing to the public that Jensen, Shockley and
co. are not just crackpots, but fully respectable
scientists from prestigious university faculties
scientists whose theories are politely listened to at
university symposiums, debates, etc., whose theories
are published in scientific journals and even in
—

textbooks used by their colleagues at major
universities.
It is very very foolish to believe that when
Shockley and co. publish textbooks and give
speeches at universities, that they arc simply trying
to win some debates before some raltiyely small
college audiences. Of course they wouldn’t mind
convincing their immediate college audiences, but
their PRIMARY purpose is to be publicly identified
as full fledged and respected members of the
academic community; whether they win the local
debate or not is, from the point of view of the
national propoganda campaign, IRRELEVANT to
them!! They want the master race theory to be
respected as a scientific hypothesis worthy of
discussion in the best universities. Once this is
accomplished, the mass media will do the rest by
publicizing the racists and ignoring all the true
scientiests who disagree.
Free speech for racists (and NOT “winning
debates”) is the KING PIN of the whole Big Lie
technique. That’s why the ruling class owned N.Y.
Times has already had several editorials frantically
attacking PLP and defending Shockley’s right to
speak on campuses (and not even calling him a racist,
by the way).
If the Shockleys and their racist textbooks are

tolerated whatsoever in the universities, it will be a
tremendous victory for the ruling class effort to
legitimize racism in the eyes of the public at large.
When The Spectrum argues that “In time Jensen’s
and Shockley’s theories of genetic inferiority will be
scientifically exposed” (as if they hadn’t already] if
only free speech is allowed to prevail for the racists,
they show their complete ignorance of how a Big Lie
propoganda campaign works.
Those who clamor about freedom of speech and
“fascist tactics” should ask themselves if they want
to defend the actual implementation of a national
racist propoganda campaign that would warm the
hearts of Himmler and Goebbels. Because defending
the “right” of racists to parade their filth as if it
were scientific research is exactly what the ruling
class needs in order to get their racist campaign off
the ground. Why in the world should we help
them?????
The ruling class will pusluracist propoganda and
carry out racist atrocities NOT until they are
“proven womg,” but until they are physically
stopped by acyions like the students at S.I.C.C. took

against Shockley, and

ultimately by a violent
of workers and others to destroy the
capitalist ruling class and every scrap of their racist
propoganda once and for all.

Bananas in the ear
To the Editor.

After a period of time of observing the grand
for freedom of expression by radicals,
reactionaries, liberals, and what have you, one
common element seems clear: Everyone has bananas
in their ears. These are metaphorical bananas, of
course, but they are bananas none the less. The latest
example of this has been the PLP, whose ears are
plugged with racist bananas. Try to tell them about
the effectiveness of open debate in destroying
Jensenism. Try to tell them why we can’t treat
Maddox like he’d treat us. It won’t get through. The
only thing that penetrates those bananas is the word
“racism,” so that’s all they hear. Similarly, many
people in government (now including Nixon’s Court)
have sexual bananas in their ears. (Don’t let any
psychiatrists read this.) Tell Atlanta about artistic
fight

merit in Carnal Knowledge, talk about sprawling
lines waiting to see Deep Throat in Buffalo (those
people must not have been part of the community so
they had no standards to be offended), or even try
to read them the Bill of Rights (remember that
funny looking yellow wrinkled paper), its all going
to filter through those bananas as “sex.” Of course,
the insidious thing about all these bananas is that no
one will listen to you if you tell them. After all, you
can’t hear anything with bananas in your ears. There
are other bananas (cosmic bananas, sacred bananas,
political bananas etc.) which I don’t have room to
mention. Everyone has them, and, like 1 said, are
blissfully unaware of their presence.
In conclusion, an old song comes to mind, “Yes,
we have no bananas, we have no bananas today . . .

We call on all prisoners to join in a nationwide
prisoners boycott of the traditional Christmas
dinner.
The Buffalo Attica Defense Committee is
helping to organize this feast. We urge you all to give
up a small part of your Christmas and share it, in the
form of a donation, with the Attica Brothers. We
will have a table set up in Norton Union on Tues„
Wed. and Thurs., December 11-13. We will be there
to collect your contributions and to rap to you
about Attica.
On Monday, the 26th of November, Martin
Sostre was again brutally beaten deep inside the
walls of Clinton Prison. This time there were sixteen
guards in the goon squad to force Martin to submit
to the inhuman rectal examination. Seeing all these
goons and fully knowing the consequences, Martin
once again refused to submit to this dehumanizing
and degrading policy of the Rockefeller prison
administration. Martin was being taken to court in
Plattsburg by ‘mistake’’ because an assistant District
Attorney placed another prisoner’s letter (requesting
to be brought to court for assignment of counsel) in
Martin’s file. They are no longer content to beat him
on his regular court appearances, now they make up
excuses to get him.
On Thanksgiving morning, one of the Attica
Brothers, Otis McGaughy, was severely burned in his
cell in Auburn Prison due to improper actions and
incompetence of the guards. Sixteen of the indicted
Attica Brothers are being illegally held in the solitary
confinement section (euphemistically referred to by
Rockefeller’s prison administration as the Special
Housing Unit).

At about 9 in the morning a fire of mysterious
origin broke out in Otis’ cell. The average cell in a
solitary unit is about 5 feet by 7 feet with 3 solid
walls and a barred front wall. Otis tried to put the
fire out himself but was unsuccessful and he
screamed for help. Instead of letting him out of the
cell and then putting the fire out, the guards did it
the other way around. They showed their racist and
inhuman opinion of prisoners by leaving him inside
of the cell to burn while they tried to put out the
fire. At .first they tried to use one hose but it was too
short, so they had to run for another and hook it up

and then deal with the fire. Meanwhile, Otis was
forced to stay inside of the cell for IS minutes and
roast. This is the third fire in SHU since Dec. 1972.
What kind of people keep other people in cages
and don’t even have the proper facilities to prevent
them from burning alive inside their cages! What
kind of society calls for this kind of treatment in the
name of rehabilitation! When he finally was let out,
he was locked in another cell for another 10 minutes
before he was taken to the inadequate prison
hospital. The flames never touched Otis but the heat
was so intense that he has third degree burns over
40% of his body, tine of his ears is almost totally
destroyed. Otis is a very gifted and creative artist and
he may never paint again because of the severe burns

to his hands.

ecitations

clarified

To the Editor

For the sake of clarification, I felt it necessary
on the article “Former students to
instruct recitations” in .the December 3rd The
Spectrum. On just the superficial level, the title, as
well as the author’s use'ST tense, implies that the
Childhood and Adolescensc Student Teaching
Program has not yet begun, while in fact the
Program was instituted at the initiation of this
semester’s classes. As for my role, I am coordinator
of the Program, that is I keep things moving as
smoothly and accurately as possible, and am not the
“coordinator of the teaching assistants,” who are
quite capable of their own coordination. As for
“keeping tabs on each section to make them as
uniform as possible,” my function is primarily one
of basic organization, such as time met and
scheduling of lecturers and films, while Dr. Solkoff
reviews the quality of the sections, of which he is
quite satisfied, based on written reports submitted
weekly by each of the teaching assistants.
Furthermore, Dr. Solkoff and all of the TAs meet
once a week to discuss their experience and
hopefully improve the quality of their methods. The
author states that Dr. Solkoff and myself felt that
the current bases for selection of the assistants is
“insufficient” and that in the future there will be
interviews “used to screen qualified applicants," as
well as a reduction in the number of assistants.
However, he failed to note that such statements were
made in respect to a similar program being
established for Abnormal Psychology next semester,
the issues of which tend to be more delicate than
those of Childhood and Adolescence, and require
extensive knowledge, practical experience, and
finesse on the part of the teachers. The evaluative
comments made at the end of the article are based
V .,
f f'T
i’m r .jriTt-; i\’
to comment

Page fourteen The Spectrum Wednesday,
.

.

on responses from less than a dozen students; quite
an improper sample from a population of over 400.
In order to make such an assessment of the Program,
proper sampling techniques with a targe enough
sample from the total population must be utilized,
otherwise such an evaluation is invalid and
inaccurate. A proper qualification will be made once
the final evaluation questionnaires are assessed.
In an educational system where learning and
creativity have been sacrificed to fierce competition
and dehumanization, a program such as ours is
essential for the individual student to maintain a
feeling of self. There is no doubt that the crowding
of 400 students into a lecture hall three times a week
can be a horrifying experience. The program was
established to resurrect the learning experience
one of the more beautiful aspects of the program is
that the environment in each recitation section is a
function of the individual assistant’s teaching
method, as well as the individual needs and desires of
the students. Each section is therefore unique
a
comfortable, hopefully exciting setting is provided
differently in each section. The program is the first
of its type for such a large class; furthermore, the 15
sections are optional, and exist for the individual
student and teacher to delve deeper into the subject
matter and explore aspects of childhood psychology
not covered in the lectures
hence the experience
allows for impromptu creativity on the part of both
the teachers (who are undergraduates), and students.
All those involved thus play vital roles in dynamic
inter-personal relationships, i.e., the sections were
designed for 15 students per instructor. Our primary
aim then, is to bring the presently stranded student
out of the claws of competition adit anonymity and
free he/her to achieve that which is important for
re-establishment of self.

Smear tactics?
To the Editor.
The December 7 The Spectrum contained an
account of the exclusion of members of the
Revolutionary Communist Youth from the Attica
Brigade’s presentation of a slide show on modern
China. Your article quoted a Brigade member as
saying, “They (the RCY) always try to disrupt our
meetings ans wreck everything with their political
debating.”
This is the standard tactic of smear and
falsification to avoid politics which we have come to
expect from the Attica Brigade. The RCY does not
disrupt meetings. As the Attica Brigade knows we
always agree to abide by the discipline of the public
meetings we attend.
The Attica Brigade however presentes us with
the spectacles of a political organization which seeks
to avoid political debate. Their statement indicates
their real motives for the exclusion of the RCY;
rather than defend themselves politically they
attempt to isolate political oppdnents physically.
This reflects their inability to provide a socialist
alternative to the crisis of capitalist society.
The RCY understands the necessity for the
fullest possible debate of the issues facing the
working-class movement. This is the only method by
which the workers movement can achieve maximum
political clarity on its historic task of socialist
revolution. It is this fact which the hackneyed New
Leftists of the Attica Brigade must deny in their
attempts to pass* off warmed-over liberalism as
revolutionary socialism.

take place Sunday, December 16 at 7 pm. in the
Campus School Auditorium of Buffalo State College.
Admission is free.

Food

service will no longer
reimburse groups that organize
meal fasts. In the past, food
service has refunded one dollar for
each student who had board

(JSU) recently used this technique
to raise money for Isreali meidcal

By allowing such practices, the
University may be “overtly
showing partiality to one side,”
according to Ed Doty,
vice-president for Operations and
Systems. “Where do you draw the
line as to which cause is worthy
and which isn’t?” Mr. Doty
questioned. “This [decision]
keeps the University from winding
up in the middle by avoiding
taking sides.” “This is a real moral

government are also included in the bill. More voter
information in the form of ballot pamphlets,
complete campaign financing disclosures by
legislators and the establishment of a political
practices commission are also part of this reform bill.
Similar reform bills have either not passed
committee or have come out of committee so
watered down and compromised as to be virtually
unrecognizable. Mr. Atlas hopes that the
development of strong voter support for the NYCAG
reform bill will save it from the fate suffered by
similar bills.

Returning the power in New York State to the
people is the primary objective of the New York
Citizens Action Group (NYCAG), a non-profit,
non-partisan organization headed by Steve Atlas, an
associate of Ralph Nader.
Ralph Nader first discussed the feasibility of
state-wide citizen organiztions last spring. During the
summer of 1973, Mr. Atlas spoke with New Yorkers
all around the state and concluded the state’s
citizens want and need an organization like NYCAG.

�Judy CoUins concert
the mood was mellow

—

Kleinhans Music Hall proved to
be the perfect atmosphere in
which to experience the
mellowness of Judy Collins last
Saturday night- Her beautiful
voice was enhanced by the perfect
accoustics of the theater.
Wearing a floor-length black
velvet gown, she picked her guitar
and immediately began the show
with a song from her Who Knows
Where the Time Goes album.
After her introductory number,
Judy began talking to the
audience. She was very happy to
be back in Buffalo and equally
pleased about the snow weVe had
this weekend. New York City has
evidently been having a warm
winter; she remarked jokingly that
we might as well blame that on
Mr. Nixon along with everything
else.
After this interval die sang
Steve Goodman’s “City of New
Orleans” plus a couple Stephen
Stills songs. The band backing her
up did a fine job. The five
members played piano, guitar,
banjo, pedal steel, a third bass
guitar, drums and harmonica. This
was Judy’s sisth year at Kleinhans
and marked a certain triumph for
her and the group: Kleinhans has
now become convinced that they
are not a rock and roll band, and
for the first time in six years has
allowed them to use its treasured
grand piano.
Judy’s voice is of the sweetest
quality and she seems to sing as
easily and naturally as someone

else would speak.
On her return to the stage for
the second half, shejeft die group
backstage and performed solo,
first doing some Leonard Cohen
songs on the guitar, then
switching to the piano for another
four or five numbers. Judy plays
piano very well and the audience
was quite pleased.
ThC second half of the show
went over just as well as the first,
with the audience hardly waiting
for her to finish a song before

breaking into a tremendous
applause. They literally loved her.
For the last two songs, both
Joni Mitchell compositions, the
band rejoined her and again her
admirers could not restrain their
applause. During “Chelsea
Morning” die got quite lively and
afterwards left the stage amidst a
standing ovation. She returned to
sing Leonard Cohen’s “Like a Bird
on the Wire.”

During most of the concert the
mood was mellow. Only once or
twice for a few seconds did she
actually “whale” out a note or
two. It would have been that
much more enjoyable if she had
used the full force of her resonant
voice on just one or two songs.
She chose, however, to keep the
mood soft and even, which
evidently pleased most of die
crowd immensely and probably
pleased her as well.

�Harriman concert

Pnumbral Raincoast
to brighten your day
Are you one of those
unfortunate though exceptional,
courageous but probably unhappy
individuals who will be staying in
Buffalo during the upcoming
holiday? Why so unhappy? My
unfortunate friend, you are
actually very fortunate! Not only
will you be able to experience
Mother Nature’s elements in their
most perverse confession, but you
will also have the opportunity to
witness and join seven explorers
on the Pnumbral Raincoast.
The Pnumbral Raincoast is, in
terms of geographic location, a
space characterized by the unique
ability of both expansion and
contraction. Recently it has been
generally stable with the western
boundary at East Lansing,
Michigan, the eastern boundary at
Pittsfield, Mass., Washington, D.C.
on the southern boundary, and
both Buffalo and Albany, N.Y.
bordering the northern limit.
The contracting process, in its
latent form at the present time,
will become active around
December 26 and the Phumbral
Raincoast will reach a high point
of density on December 27 at 8
p.m. in Harriman Library (facing
the foundation area across from
Foster Hall) on campus.
First wave
Among the people committed
to exploring this space is Amy
Jenes, who has recorded a possible
moment on the circumference of
the Raincoost during its upcoming
contraction process. She has
entilted this projected moment.
Station. Ralph Blauvclt, who has
been experiencing a pronounced
pulsating movement betwen the
northern boundary of Albany and
the eastern boundary, will present
magnificantions of the sounds of
objects that have been moved
loose by the pulsating movement.
This information is classified No.
19 and includes an entertaining
vocal dissertation by Frances
Riley.
In his attempt at creating a
viable myth, John Driscoll, after
fishmg around at great length, has
discovered in tfic cerebral recesses
of the collective consciousness of
the Pnumbral Raincoast the tale
of Cicero’s Bath, which reveals the
secret of how long it takes nine
frozen bluefish to ,melt at a poker
game.
It seems that no space, physical
or psychical, is without its

perception. It will be piped in
through rubber hoses, bathing all
present with the luxurious
sensations of ultrasonics. It’s a
real Soaker.
Martin Kalve has observed of
the Pnumbral Raincoast what a
great cloud of dust each small step
makes. In the inner mind, as on a
forest lawn, there are many who
go and are there creating each, his
et
own wave of dust. Et puis
je
est-ce
puis...
que
puis? is
simply a game which all are
compelled to play. There are
many ways in which the game can
be played and each person must
decide how he will play. The
specific choice that each person
makes will change the rules of the
game.
Everybody involved is young
and has new and exciting ideas in
art which he would like to share
with you. There is no admission
charge and refreshments will be
served to help smooth the edges
you carry in from the outside. If
you’re not planning to be in town
on the 27th, give this article to a
friend who will and he’ll have
more to tell you about when you
get back to Buffalo than how
miserable the weather was, how
much sleep he got . ..

this area with an as yet

Rubber hose treatment
Through the medium of
electronics, Ralph Jones has
entered an area of the Pnumbral

unaware because of the
limitations of our biological
auditory mechanisms. Jones,
however, presents to our

Today almost everybody is getting into photography
And it’s not the snapshot variety. People are doing
sports stories, nature stories, portraits—you may
even have a friend who's doing photographs through

a microscope. Or a telescope.
You also know that everybody has his own idea
about which camera is best. That's why it’s important
for you to know about the Canon F-1. Because it’s the
system camera that's fast becoming the favorite of
professionals. And the new status symbol among
photography enthusiasts.

The whole F-1 system includes over 40 lenses and
200 accessories. It’s capable of doing virtually
everything in photography So whatever idea you
have for a picture, the F-1 has the equipment to make
sure you get it.
Because it was conceived from the beginning as a
system, it works as a system. All the elements are
quickly and easily interchangeable. No matter which
lens or accessory you use with the F-1 body you won’t
have the feeling that something has been
“tacked on.”
What’s more the F-1 is comfortable to handle.
Years of research went into the design of the F-1 body
and placement of controls so your fingers fall
naturally into place. You'll appreciate this comfort
when you’re on assignment. It’s also an important
thing to keep in mind if you’re investing in a camera
you plan to keep a long time.
Canon has been in the optics industry over 37
years. We make microscope equipment, amateur and
professional movie cameras and TV lenses. It’s this
experience that helps make our still cameras the best
selling cameras in Japan. In America, it's just a matter
of time.
See your dealer for more information. He'll also
show you Canon’s other SLR cameras, like the FTb
and TLb. Both of which offer accurate metering, easy
film loading, a wide range of lenses and the same
standard of engineering that goes into the F-1.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Vol. 24, No. 42

Editor’s note: This is the second of a two-part series on the
issue of IQ, race and heredity. This part examines the
controversial Jensen Report and the reactions it has
generated in the scientific community.

Heredity vs. environment
conflic t regarding IQs

Why do blacks, as a group, score significantly lower on

IQ tests than whites?

i

For years, social scientists insisted that the 10-to-20
point disparity between black and white IQ scores is
caused by environmental differences. This assumption was
the prime force behind most of the educational reform
programs of the sixties, according to Tufts University
professor Norman Daniels ( Harper’s Magazine, October
1973).

Then in 1969, psychologist Arthur Jensen suggested
that differences in genes were the primary reason for the
gap between black and white IQ scores. The Jensen Report
immediately became one of the most widely discussed,
hotly contested and frequently misunderstood documents
of the last century.
The Jensen Report suggests four major premises: (1)
tests
measure a general trait, intelligence; (2) about 80
IQ
per cent of individual IQ differences are genetic in origin;
(3) genes are responsible for up to 80% of intelligence
differences between blacks and whites and between social
classes; (4) differences in job and school success strongly
correlate with, and are caused by differences in
intelligence.
However, Dr. Jensen cautioned; “Let me stress that
none of the research I have discussed allows one to
conclude anything about the intelligence of any individual
black or white person.”

IQs unreliable

“It is absolutely crucial to Jensen’s arguments that a
person’s score on an IQ test does in fact indicate his
intelligence,” Dr. Daniels commented.
Some social scientists have maintained that IQ tests do
not measure intelligence per se. “IQ is a score on a test,
subject to enormous amounts of unreliability and error,”

Rape

Lack of aid to victim
keeps criminal free

Although one woman is raped every 21 minutes,
according to FBI statistics, onjy one out of every
five rapes is reported to officials. “Our criminal laws,
upon which we depend to protect society from the
violence visited by outlaws, have failed us miserably
in this area,” said Justice Lawrence Cooke, Thursday
in the Moot Courtroom.
A member of the Appellate Division of the State
Supreme Court, Justice'Cooke called for repeal of
the laws requiring corroboration of a complainant's
testimony in rape and other sex crime prosecutions.
“Far from acting as a deterrent to the crime of rape,
our laws have had a history of permitting women in
this society to be raped with relative impunity and,
due to their widely recognized inefficacy, they may
even be accused of encouraging rape.”

There

are

now 35 states in the U.S.

corroboration requirement

no

for rape

charges. New
York is one of seven states considered to have the
most difficult-to-convict rape statues. Justice Cooke
felt that if these strict laws are repealed, people will
report more crimes because of a greater chance for

successful prosecution. Too often cases are dismissed
police stations due to, lack of evidence for the

at

corroboration requirement, Mr. Cooke explained.

expressed in the words of Lord Chief Justice Hale,
that rape “is an accusation easily to be made and
hard to be proved and harder to be defended by the
party accused, tho’ never so innocent,” quoted
Justice Cooke. Arguments against the repeal of the
corroboration laws center on this belief that false
rape charges are frequently made. “According to the
commander of New York City’s Rape Analysis
Squad, only about 2% of all rape and related sex
charges are determined to be false, and this is about
the same as the rate of false charges of other
felonies,” Mr. Cooks said.

Mistrusted women
“What has justified it (the corroboration
requirement] and continues to justify it is the ‘gut’
feeling that women as a class cannot be trusted to
tell the truth, even under oath,” according to Justice
Cooke. “Needless to say, this hypothesis is patently
absurd and richly deserves once and for all to be

relegated

to

inhumanity to

the

unhappy

history

of

man’s

man.”

Underlying the whole situation, said Justice
Cooke, is blatant sex discrimination: “Women are
outside the effective protection of the law and
criminals know it. Women dare not move about in
public unescorted after dark. If the phrase ‘equal
protection of the laws’ means anything, then I say
the
time has come for the repeal of the

corroboration requirement.”

Evidence unavailable
Until 1972, New York law required that
corroboration of the victim’s testimony extend to
every material fact “essential to constitute the
crime,” including any alleged assault, explained
Justice Cooke. “Corroboration was required as to
the identity of the alleged rapist; as to penetration of
the victim; and as to lack of consent by the victim.
Th« law has now been amended to eliminate the
need to corroborate the assault. It is readily apparent
that since few rapists attack their victims in the
presence of witnesses, such corroborating evidence
was simply not available in most cases, despite the
presence of other credible proof of crime,” he
maintained.
Recent statistics for the first half of 1972
indicate that of 613 cases involving serious sex
offenses, 342 were dismissed outright and only 9
convictions were obtained on the original charge.
“This situation is far from sat sfactory, and I think
it is appropriate that we examine the laws under
which such a situation exists.” Justice Cooke
commented.
The brief that a rape charge is difficult to
disprove can be traced to English Common Law. as

Changes must be made in order to relieve
of the emotional horrors they now
experience in reporting a rape, demanded Justice
Cooke: “Unless we can have a situation where
women will no longer fear the humiliating and
intimidating process of reporting a rape almost as
much as the rape itself, we will make little progress
in effective law enforcement.”
A Rape Analysis Squad has been formed in New
York City, which Justice Cooke feels is a step in the
right direction. Hospital personnel and police must
also'be made aware of the “special need for sensitive
and humane handling of tape victims, rather than the
coarse treatment to which these unfortunate women
are too frequently subjects,” he said.
“In order to insure that the process of reporting
rape will not be an exercise in futility, we must
remove the corroboration requirement as a needless
obstacle to effective law enforcement,” concluded

Justice Cooke. “To those of us who believe in
effective law enforcement, the need for change in
the law is apparent. But more importantly, to those
of us who believe in equal justice for all, regardless
of race, religion or sex, the need for reform is
imperative.”

Dr. Nichols
continued. “Animal breeding studies” also lend support to
Dr. Jensen’s theories, he asserted. Through selective
straining, scientists have been able to breed both dull and
bright rats. However, he cautioned 'that one cannot make
definite assumptions about the intelligence of human
beings on the basis of animal studies.
Dr. Nichols also noted a “dramatic case study” in
which a girl raised in a room by schizophrenic parents
“devoid of any socialization" was discovered at age five.
They had kept her locked in a room and fed her under the
door. When she was transferred to a “fairly benign
environment." she exhibited “apparently normal
intelligence.” This study by Harvard professor Jerome
Kagcn lent support to the theory that “fairly extreme
deprivation” docs not permanently affect intelligence. Dr.
Nichols stated.
”

Similarly, an indmdual's IQ cannot permanently be
improved by environmental programs. Dr. Nichols
maintained. “Small-scale attempts to improve intelligence

by intensive instruction has had relatively little

effect,” he

claimed.

“It is not easy to influence intelligence by correcting
for environmental factors," Dr. Nicbok concluded. This
argument has frequently been advanced by proponents of
Jen sen ism when arguing against various Head Start and
compensatory education programs.
In short, because IQ is a heritable (genetically
determined| trait, learning ability cannot be significantly
improved through compensatory programs. Dr. Jensen
believes.

Dr. Jensen argues that genetic factors can explain the
I0-to-20 point difference in the mean IQs of blacks and
whites and the 30-point difference between the average

IQs of lower- and upper-class persons.
MwMbJi or yn|whlinw?
“The fact that IQ is highly heritable within the white
and probably the black population- docs not by itself
constitute formal proof that the difference between the
populations is genetic.” Dr. Jensen wrote in Psychology
Today (December 1973).
“However,” he continued, “the fact of substantial
hcritability within the populations does increase the a
priori probability that the population difference is partly
attributable to genetic factors.”
“To go from individual to group differences is a big, in
fact fatal, leap, since hcritability is defined only for
.

differences.” Dr. Daniels countered.
Dr. Jensen responded to such criticism: “Biologists
generally agree almost without exception throughout
nature, that any genetically conditioned characteristic that
varies among individuals within a subspecies (i.c.. race) also
individual

varies genetically between subspecies.”

Opponents have also criticized Dr. Jensen because be
did not study IQ scores from large numbers of black
people. Instead, most of the IQ data analyzed by Dr.
Jensen were from tests of Caucasian Americans and
Europeans. In his study. Dr. Jensen postulated that
because there was high heritabiUty Cor white people, there
is probably high heritabiUty for black people.

Many psychologists claim that IQ tests themselves ary
biased against certain ethnic and social classes. IQ tests are
based primarily on the language, knowledge and cognitive
skills of the white middle class, they argue.
The sampling groups used to standardize the
commonly-used Stanford-Binet and Wechsler Intelligence
tests, for instance, did not include black or
Mexican-American children, according to Jane Mercer and
Wayne Brown.
“By omitting black and Mexican-American children
from the standardization samples of these tests, the test
designers have implicitly set those children outside the
tethnic and socio-cultural boudaries of the population,”
explained Drs. Mercer and Brown.

Minorities omitted
They concluded: “The differences between the
average IQ test scores of children from the three different
ethnic groups [black, white, and Mexican American] we
studied could be explained statistically by differences in
their environmental backgrounds.”
Responding to criticism that the IQ tests themselves
are “culture biased” Dr. Jensen stated: “Surprisingly,
blacks tend to perform relatively better 'on the more
culture-loaded or verbal kinds of tests than on the
culture-fair type.”
As evidence, he

cited the widely-used Wechsler
Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC), on Which “blacks
do* better on the culture-loaded subtests of vocabulary,

general information, and verbal comprehension than on
the nonverbal performance tests such as the block design.”
Dr. Jensen also suggests that job and school success
strongly correlates with, and is caused, by differences in
intelligence. This so-called “meritocracy” thesis has been
advanced by Harvard professor Richard Hemstein. This
theory states that blacks, with their lower average
have low educability and therefore are found
disproportionately on-the lower end of the working class,
according to Dr. Daniels. Taking issue with this theory, he
asked rhetorically; “Does low IQ explain racist wage
differentials or ‘last hired, first fired’ policies exercised by
many companies?”

IQ poor predictor

There is little reason to assume that success in school
or on the-job is much related to intelligence, he added
“Other things, like class background and number of school
years completed, correlate even better with such
achievement than IQ does. Independent of these other
factors, IQ is no good at all as a predictor of ‘success in
life’,” he maintained.
Was Dr. Jensen “responsive to evidence in his
scholarly approach,” as Dr. Nichols asserts? Or was he
making reckless assertions on the basis of poor research, as
some social scientists have claimed?
“Intelligence, personality and special abilities are all
susceptible to modification by genetic as well as
environmental factors,” wrote renowned geneticist
Theodosius Dobzhansky, “And recent! sensational and
inflammatory pronouncements about the genetic basis for
racial and socio-economic differences in IQ make
mandatory a critical consideration of ,thc subject.”
Environment vs. heredity; nature vs. nurture. The
controversy is as old as science itself. The Jensen Report,
with its emphasis on genetic factors, has pleased some and
infuriated others, but it has not stilled the controversy.
The debate rages on.

Ra id transit

Forum to discuss

overhead station
Will there be an overhead train
line on the Main Street campus?
An open forum to discuss the
proposed Buffalo-Amherst rapid
transit line will be co-sponsored
by the Civil Engineering
Department and the Community
Action Corps (CAC) on December
12 from 3 to 5 p.m. in the Norton
Conference Theatre. A panel of
the major contributors to the
rapid transit decision-making
process will be available to answer
questions pertaining to the
alignment and its impact on the
university community.

Focusing on a “basic exchange
of information” between
students, faculty, community

participants'and the panelists, the
forum was organized in response
to conern over the station

location on the Main Street
campus, according to Robert
Paaswell, Associate Professor of
Civil Engineering who has been
instrumental in arranging the
forum. While panelists may give a
brief formal presentation on the
planning -process of the rapid
transit line, Dr. Paaswell said the
bulk of time will be spent in
receiving input from
University community.

the

Informed panel
The panel will consist of
Kenneth Knight, project director
for the Niagara Frontier Transit
Authority (NFTA), C. McGee
from Bechtel Associates
(engineering consultant for
NFTA), John Telfer,
Vice-President of Facilities
Planning, and Dr. Paaswell, who
has recently studied
transportation problems for the
City of Buffalo under a grant
from the Federal Department of
Transportation. Also tentatively
scheduled to be present are Marti
Horne, representing (CAC),
University councilman Bill Price,

a representative from the
University Heights community

and

group.

Although an overhead transit
structure will defintely be built

Amherst campus, no final decision
has been made on the type of
rapid transit facility that will serve
the Main Street campus. NFTA
has narrowed the alternatives to
either an aerial station near
Diefendorkrf Annex or an
underground station on Main
Street Opposite Hayes Hall.
University officials would
prefer an on-campus overhead
station with a network of
enclosed walkways connecting
various academic buildings. They
feel this set-up will be more
convenient for passengers
travelling to the Veterans Hospital
and dental clinic, as welt as the
campus. Additionally, if the main
pedestrian flow is above ground, it
will allow for freer movement of
vehicular traffic below, explained
Mr. Telfer,
Campus expressway
Opponents to an overhead line
contend congestion and noise
from the trains will disturb
outside activities. They also claim
the structure will “resemble an
expressway through campus,”
detracting from the collegiate
atmosphere. However, the
structure is a “modern-looking
ribbon of concrete” and any noise
will be cushioned by a four-foot
sound barrier wall, according to a
NFTA spokesman. The new trains
will not be as noisy as the old
New York City “el-train,” he
added.
Students and faculty who are
interested in helping to determine
the location of the transit line are
urged to attend the forum. “We
would like the final plans to be
made in the presence of university
opinion,” Dr. Paaswell stated.

Report urges more flexibility
in nation’s secondary schools
High schools must become more flexible.
This is the primary finding of a report to be -m!
issued next month by the National Commission on
the Reform of Secondary Education, urging the
nation’s high schools to make both curricula and
attendance requirements more flexible.
The study will make 32 recommendations
intended to alleviate what it called the
“beleaguered" conditions of the secondary schools.
The report’s most controversial proposal is to lower
the age of mandatory school attendance from 16 to
14. One educator feared such a change would result
in “five million youngsters on the streets, instead of

School, not prison

In arguing for lowering the compulsory
attendance age, the report states: “If the high school
is not to be a custodial institution, the state must
not force adolescents to attend.” The commisssion
advocated the development of new programs for
14-year-olds including complete revision of the
employment laws and increased-on-the-job training
programs.

&gt;

The study was conducted by a 21-member panel
which included educators, legislators and students.
Some of its other recommendations included:
“Receiving diplomas for out-of-school experiences
that will enable students to earn their diploma

requirements.
competitive sports, and the elimination of racial and
ethnic bias in texts, counseling, and in the hiring of
school personnel.”
..

Two free years
They also emphasized job placement programs,
also stressed universal access to college:
“Congress and the state legislature should insure free
public education for two years beyond high school.”
The president of the Buffalo Board of
Education, Joseph Manch, has been an advocate of
secondary education reform. “Education should not
be confined to the four walls of a classroom,” he
said, adding that Buffalo has been a “leader” in the
educational reform. Buffalo was “the first city to
include black history in the regular curriculum” and
the “first to put students on curricular committees,”

said Dr. Manch. Asked whether he would support
the mandatory age lowering from 16, to 14, Dr
Manch replied he had “mixed feelings.”

section describes the Suicide nevennon
and Crisis Center, and some experts’
comments on preventing midde.

by Eve Meye***
Spectrum Stuff Writer

The Suicide Prevention and Crisis
Center “works with both adolescents and
adults who have any type of social,
emotional or interpersonal crisis,
according to its own description. *ln some
n*e* the person may have suicidal thought.
However, most of the individuals
contacting the Center are not suicidal but
rather emotionally concerned about a
problem which has caused them some
degree of difficulty and personal concern.’
The Center offers a wide range of
services and programs opened to all
residents of Erie County. Among these is
24-hour telephone services “designed to
give immediate assistance or conmltatkm
to individuals who are suicidal or
concerned about a personal or
interpersonal crisis.” The Center’s
telephones, at 854-1966, we manned by
“individuals especially trained and selected
and trained to talk to people in crisis.”
The Center runs a clinic which provides
short-term intensive psycho-therapy for
both individuals and groups “for people
who desire face-to-face contact with a
therapist for assistance in resolving their
difficulty.”

They also operate a 24-hour Crisis
Outreach Service, which is oriented to
offering emergency mental health services
to people living in Erie County: Outreach
offers “therapeutic contact with a person
in a critical situation where the police or
rescue squad are inappropiatc and other
resources are lacking,” a spokesman
explained. The primary abjective of the
outreach team is to “keep individuals out
of the hospitals and. when necessary, to
refer the individual to appropriate agencies
for help or therapy.” When hospitalization
is required, voluntary admission, as
opposed to involuntary, is the objective.

The Suicide Prevention and Crisis
Center, Inc. it located at 560 Main Street,
telephone 854-1966.
All the suicide prevention facilities
mentioned in this scries differ from each
other in small but important ways. There
are the more discernible differences such as
the money and resources available to each.
And there are the less obvious differences
such as the vocabulary (the way something
is defined), approach, and techniques
employed by each agency in dealing with
depression and crisis. All these factors
point to an attitude the individual agency
holds
in pther words, how the agency
perceives itself and its relationship or role
to the person who utilized it.
-

Suicide: not preventable?
Ideas and theories presented n a
“fancy” or scientific vocabulary are not
necessarily more valid than the less

formalized articulations of
“non-professionals.” Even some “experts”
admit that the dynamics of self-destructive
behavior is one facet of human behavior
that hasn’t yet been adequately
understood.
This is not to imply that crisis
counseling is of little or no value and could
be done away with, but that counseling
services aren't necessarily going to prevent
certain behaviors from occurring. And this
leads into another area of discussion: Why
do people commit suicide, and how
effective is counseling in preventing

self-destruction?
Recently, Newsweek (October 29,1973)
said there has been “no demonstrable
success anywhere in lowering the suicide
rate, regardless of the kind of therapy
offered and regardless of whether it was
long-term or short term, private or
institutional, voluntary or involuntary.”
And Thomas Szasz, who Newsweek termed
a “radical psychiatrist,” said: “The whole
anti-suicide thing is a racket."
The biggest obstacle in suicide
prevention counseling seems to be,
according to sociologist Donald Light Jr.,
that “most people who call in are not
suicidal, and most individuals
contemplating suicide do not call in.”

Despite the fact that main
attraction Freddie Hubbard failed
to appear for a Black Student
Union-sponsored

concert

November 18, no refunds will be
issued because ticket stubs were
never distributed.
“We didn’t know Freddie
Hubbard wasn’t going to be there.
I was never informed by phone,
telegram or anything that he
wasn’t coming,” maintained BSD
president Larry Williams. The
reason ticket stubs were not given
out was because BSU was afraid
people would throw them out
windows to “freeloaders,” Mr.
Williams said.
However, in a Letter to the
Editor in the November 30 issue
of The Spectrum H. Pye
complained: “I was refusejl stubs
at the end of the program, when it
was first mentioned that the main
attraction had not shown.”
Nevertheless Mr. Williams
contended that the concert ended
so late it would have taken all
night to return ticket stubs. The
two other groups on the bill did
perform, he added.
Student Association (SA)
Treasurer Ken Unker felt the

incident was “unfortunate” even

though the SA was not directly
involved. Refunds could not be

made because stubs were never
given, Mr. Unker agreed. Freddie
Hubbard and BSU are considering
holding a free concert in the
spring.
Mr. Pye’s letter outraged BSU
and Mr. Williams. “We put on two
days of smokin’ concerts and
because one dude doesn’t show up

we’re called the Bull Shit Union,”
Mr. Williams said. ‘The University
doesn’t care about blacks and
fought us like hell about putting
on the concerts,” he added.
In addition, Mr. Williams was
very critical of The Spectrum. “\
don’t see how that letter was ever
printed,” he said. “If we called
the Jews racist pig mother
fuckers, it would never be
printed.”

�Sostre dehumanized in prison
after he allegedly wasframed
.

Editor’s

note: This i the first ofa two-part report on the
events surrounding the imprisonment of Martin Sostre.

by Linda Moskowitz
Feature Editor

m

legal certificate to Geraldine Robinson, his co-dcfendent in
his original narcotics case. The National Civil Liberties
Committee brought his appeal before Judge Motley, the
only black woman on the Federal District bench.

In prison they call it “the box.” At least the
do. The more formal name is solitary
confinement. Albany officials now refer to it as the
“segregation unit” or “special housing facility.” Martin
Sostre is currently in “the box” at Clinton Prison, serving a
25-30 year prison term for possession and sale of heroin.
Every time a male prisoner is moved from his cell in
any solitary confinement unit of a state maximum security
prison, suph as Clinton, he must submit to a rectal
examination by guards. Mr. Sostre has contested this rule
as unconstitutional. However, the prison authorities
uphold the examination as legal, claiming it is necessary
for security.
Mr. Sostre continues to resist this practice, however,
and has suffered innumerable beatings by prison guards as
a consequence. The most recent case of such action was
related by Mr. Sostre in a letter to his Defense Committee
on November 26:
“I was taken to Plattsburgh Court by 'mistake (?)
■ this morning when an assistant D.A. placed another
prisoner’s letter in my folder. Before I went to court, I was
again assaulted for refusing to submit to the dehumanizing
rectal examination. This time they had sixteen guards in
their squad! Why they had so many, I don’t know. Perhaps
it was due to some misguided notion that sheer numbers
would terrorize or intimidate me into cooperating in my
own dehumanization.

“What dreadful crimes the oligarchy has committed that
they fear the voice of one man.”
-Ruchell Magee

“Although the conditions Sostre endured were
severe, we cannot agree with the district court that they
were ‘so foul, so inhuman and so violative of basic
concepts
of decency,’ as to require that similar
punishments be limited in the future to any particular
length of time.
“However contrary such prolonged segregation may
be to the views of some experts,” the court added, Mr.
Sostrc’s long confinement was not “cruel and unusual.”
Mr. Sostre was confined for the reasons asserted by
Warden Follette and not for his political beliefs, the Court

During this trial the following testimony was given
about Green Haven’s solitary unit:
Only one other prisoner was confined to solitary for
four months when Mr. Sostre was there. A second prisoner
who was assigned to solitary committed suicide the day
after he was brought there. Mr. Sostre was denied second
portions of food and all desserts as punishment. He was
allowed only one hour Of recreation per
in a small'
'enclosed yard by himself, which he refused because he did
not wish to be subjected to the mandatory “strip frisk”
and rectal examination required every time he left his cell.
The testimony continued;
He was permitted to shave and shower with hot
water only once a week. He was not permitted to use the
pnson library, read newspapers, see movies, or attend
school or training programs. He was not allowed to work

Martin Sostre’s political beliefs seem to be central to
this case, despite his conviction of drug possession. Mr.
Sostre claims he has been framed. The main witness for the
prosecution, then-heroin addict Arto Williams, who
testified in 1967 that he bought heroin from Mr. Sostre,
has since recanted his testimony, aftir taking part in a
rehabilitation program in California.
In an affidavit, Mr. Williams stated that he agreed to
cooperate with police officials by acting as an informant.
The police asked him if he knew any drug pushers in the
area, and after offering several names, he was asked about
Martin Sostre. Alvin Gristmacher, then a sergeant in the
narcotics division, allegedly told Mr. Williams: “We are
very interested in Sostre because we believe he was the
cause of the riot in 1967.”
The riot referred to by Mr. Gristmacher took place
in Buffalo’s black ghetto in the summer of 1967. At that
time, Martin Sostre was running the “Afro-Asian
Bookstore” in that area, which he opened in January 1965
at 1412 Jefferson Avenue. The majority of books in his
store dealt with black liberation, socialism and leftist
politics.

’

In any event, those sixteen guards strengthened my
resolve not to submit to the dehumanizing and \degrading
policies of the Rockefeller prison administration, for they
comprised living, objective proof of the power of the spirit
of one man in the struggle rights. Nor was the fact that one
man can tie up sixteen lost on the rest of the. prisoners
one 50-year old man at that!”

Slowly beaten to death
The Martin Sostre Defense Committee (Box 839,
EUicott Station, Buffalo, New York 14205) claims that
this is “only one more example of the harassment Martin is
forced to endure in prison.” But more importantly, they
are worried about Mr. Sostre’s health.
“Right now he’s slowly being beaten to death, and
it’s taking a toll on his health,” remarked Sharon Fischer,
coordinator of the Defense Committee. “His life is at
stake, and it’s not an exaggeration to say this. He is very
dependent on outside support and we urge people to
demand an end to his conditions of imprisonment.”
The conditions of Martin Sostre’s imprisonment have
been condemned by a district judge, Constance Baker
Motley, when a suit was filed by Mr. Sostre against Gov.
Rockefeller and State Commissioner of Corrections Paul
McGinnis in 1970, when Mr. Sostre was in Green Haven
Prison. He was placed in solitary there for 13 months for
“practicing law without a license,” after he tried to mail a

judge Motley ruled: “punitive segregation under the

was

Rulings overturned

She also ruled that before a prisoner is put in
solitary, he has a right to a hearing with a lawyer, the right
to call witnesses and deny the charges made against him.
Legal mail should reach the prisoner in sealed envelopes,
she added. Mr. Sostre was denied these privileges at Green
Haven. Judge Motley also awarded him $13,000 in
damages against the warden and New York State

of Corrections.
However, the majority of Judge Motley’s rulings
were later overturned by the United States Court of
Appeals in 1971, which claimed: “To place a punishment
beyond the power of a state to impose on an inmate is a
drastic interference with the state’s free political and
administrative processes.

Plainclothed harassment
Prior to the riots, plainclothes detectives and FBI
agents visited Mr. Sostre several times. Police cars often
parked in front of the store, which Ms. Fischer claims
“tried to intimidate people from going into the store.” She
said government officials would drop by and attempt to
harrass Mr. Sostre with comments like the following: “Oh,
nice place you got here, Marty, what are you doing behind
this front?”
“1 was given to understand if I helped the police in
convicting Sostre, it would aid me in my case,” Mr.
Williams stated in his affadavit. He claimed “Chief Mike
Amico [Erie County Sheriff) said in substance that he
would get me released without bail.”
After he agreed to cooperate with the police, Mr.
Williams said he was put on probation, released on his own
recognizance, given money by Sgt. Gristmacher, and told
to meet the police later that night when they went to Mr.
Sostre’s store together. At the recent trial where Mr.
Williams changed his testimony, he said he spent the
money given to him on drugs immediately after leaving the
Erie County Jail. He claims he took some of this heroin
and concealed the rest of it.
His affadavit continued that when Mr. Williams
arrived at the bookstore with the police, he went inside
and asked Mr. Sostre to hold some money for him, which
Mr. Sostre agreed to do. Mr. Williams then left and gave
the heroin he had to the police.
Following this transaction on July 14, 1967,
approximately a dozen policemen entered Mr. Sostre’s
store and allegedly assaulted Geraldine Robinson, a store
clerk. Mr. Sostre then claims he rushed to her aid and was
beaten himself with blackjacks by the police. Mr. Sostre
was later charged with assault for this in addition to the
drug charges.

Grievance procedure
Any faculty or’Non-Teaching Professional (NTP) who feels he has been subjected to
unfair employment practices may utilize the United University Professions (UUP,
formerly SUNY/United, grievance mechanism). Grievances must fust be recorded with a
UUP divisional representative. After formal notification, the party will be allowed to
settle the grievance “informally” for up to 45 days, (longer upon mutual agreement
between concerned parties). If informal procedures fail, a formal “Step 1” grievance may
require up to 35 days for settlement. If the grievance is not satisfactorily resolved at Step
I, the executive board of the local chapter of UUP may recommend action to UUP
Central. For additional information, please call University Co-Chairman Herbert Reisman
at 3944.

�Claim Governor
will resign office
Governor
Nelson
Rockefeller will resign his post
and
allow Lieutenant
Governor Malcolm Wilson to
assume
the New York
Governorship, The New York
Times reported Friday.
Mr. Rockefeller’s
resignation will be announced
before Christmas so that Mr.
Wilson will have time to
prepare a State of the State
message for the recorivening of
the State Legislature. The
Times reported, speculating
this would give Mr. Wilson the
inside track for the 1974
Republican

gubenatorial

nomination.
“The decision of the
65-year old Mr. Rockefeller to
resign after IS years ended
months of soul-searching in
which he weighed, first,
whether to seek a fifth term
next year, and then whether to
resign before his fourth term
ends, to give Mr. Wilson
maximum exposure and the
advantages of an incumbent in
year’s gubernatorial
next
election,” The Times said.

Choices convinced him that
“the Governor has something
entirely viable with
the
Commission and it’s something
he’s going to throw himself
into
he avily.” The
Commission, designed to study
the problems facing America
in the 21st century, is viewed
as a springboard to the 1976
Presidential nomination Mr.
Rockefeller is seeking.
The possibility of defeat in
a re-election bid for a fifth
consecutive term as New York
Governor was mentioned as a
factor influencing Mr.
Rockefeller’s decision. A
defeat in New York would
certainly tarnish his image and
hinder the Governor’s chances
for a Presidential victory in
1976, as New York carries 46
electoral votes. Similarly, a
defeat for Lt. Gov. Malcolm
Wilson in a bid for the New
York Governorship could also
be interpreted as a blow to the
prestige of *his sponsor, Gov.
Rockefeller.
Were the Governor to
resign, and Mr. Wilson decides
to run for a term as Governor,
he faces strong opposition
from the Speaker of the House
of the State Assembly, Perry

One source close to the
Governor said it was possible

�The fish: practice with the real
guys is nothing but pain and pins
This is the second of a three-part series
detailing the adventures of Bruce Engel, the poor man’s
George Plimpton, during the week he spent with the
varsity wrestling team. Mr. Engel is a self-described "fish
or a wrestler who can t wrestle.

Editor’s

note:

”

by Bruce Engel

everybody work so hard. But, I learned a valuable lesson
that afternoon. The only thing more boring than going
through a wrestling practice is having to watch one.
From the morning of the third day until two days
after it was all over, my thighs reached the height of bodily
agony. Things like standing up, sitting down, or climbing
stairs were excruciating. 1 longed to be able to sit all day

and dreamt of elevators that would never be.

Contributing Editor

The first day of practice had been easy enough. My
legs, which always get sore after unaccustomed vigorous
activity, didn’t feel half as bad as I thought they would.
Eventually, they would feel twice as bad as I thought was
humanly possible.
Tuesday was going to be a hard practice. I had
resolved not to wear sweat clothes anymore. (Overheating
had given me a headache the day before.) Unlike the real
wrestlers, who have to make weight before each match, I
had no need to keep my weight down. I also resolved not
to be very upset about being late to practice because of an

Day four

By Thursday the cold had subsided and I was feeling
pretty strong. 1 even decided to leave class a little early and
take in the whole practice. That plan was ruined by the
necessity of taking a physical now that the doctor was
making his weekly visit to the gym. Several times I left
practice to go up to the training room, found a long line of
ailing athletes, and returned to practice.

I was in a very bad position. Then I got a brainstorm:
I could break this hold by running out of bounds.
Unfortunately, I wasn’t very subtle about it. Referee Jim
Young penalized me a point for intentionally going out of
bounds. I said it was the only alternative I had. Co-captain
Bill Jacoutot, watching the match, agreed that I did the
smart thing.

Two-ref circus

Later on, Hershman was in the process of pinning me
when Jacoutot decided Young could use some help in
refereeing. The two of them got on either side of us then
switched sides by jumping over Hershman and myself.
Now that it was a circus, I saw no need to resist and let
myself be pinned. Our refereeing twins smacked the mat in
unison. Hershman stood up and I just left the room.
Jacoutot and Young met me outside after a couple of
minutes. I found it hard to stay mad at them when they
began giving me pointers and explaining what I had done
wrong. Unfortunately, I was too disheveled to understand
much.
I went upstairs to wait for the doctor. By the time he
gave me a clean bill of health and told me what I already
knew was wrong with my knee, practice was over.
Before practice 1 spoke with Joe Piscotty in the locker
room. He wished me luck in the match the next day and

afternoon class.
All I missed was the calisthenics and a few drills.
Drilling is the basis of a wrestling practice. Wrestling is a
series of procedural techniques cleverly called “moves.”
Drilling means practicing gn individual move by
performing it repeatedly on a passive opponent. It’s a
deadly boring procedure, but the only way to learn to
sport.

Mauled by the manager
After warming up for a few miutes I entered the drills.
I thought 1 had it made, working with Gary Edwards, one
of the managers, and the only available body for me to
work with. Here was a guy just as out of shape as 1 was and
about 20 pounds lighter. 1 was even a lihle offended at
having to practice with the manager, even if he was at my
level.
I doubt drilling has ever been sloppier. It had been
several years since Edwards, a marine veteran, had wrestled
in high school, and he knew little more than I did. It was
getting thrown around or trying
no fun on either end
vainly to perform a certain move correctly.
To my sruprise
and eventually to my utter
Edwards got the better part of the
frustration
scrimmaging that followed. Even in a situation designed to
make it easy for the offensive wrestler, his defense against
me Was successful. I nearly held my own at first, but as
time went on, I won fewer and fewer of these brief
encounters. In the final set he was escaping from me at
will. Once he didn’t even try to escape. He just tensed up
and dared me to bring him down. 1 couldn’t even budge
him, but I was cool. 1 just patted him on the ass, backed
off and said: “Okay, 1 don’t want to move either.” Gary
looked tired, but compared to me he was fresh.

Paralysis of the thighs
The conditioning period that followed did me in even
more, until my bad knee buckled after a sharp movement.
I walked it off and sat out the rest of the practice. After
that, I had the knee taped for practice.
That night, parts of my body 1 never knew I had were
telling me the error of my ways. Several of the guys later
told me that this practice had been a particularly hard one,
but that did little to soothe my mind and body. That tight,
heavy feeling in the thighs was developing rapidly. It was
very discouraging to be so utterly exhausted, to get kicked

around by the team’s manager, but most of all
three more days to go.

to have

The third day
“Cold? Why, half the guys here have colds. You’re just
pussying out.” These words of encouragement came from
167-pound Erik Drasgow, who sat next to me during a
break in his workout. His words bothered me only because
I was starting to think he was right.
I had told Coach Michael before practice that I had a
cold and didn’t want to infect anyone. He recommended I
sit out so I’d be stronger the next day.
I guess I really wanted to sit out for myself, or 1
wouldn’t have brought it up in the first place. Michael saw
through this and figured my conscience would bother me
if I was goldbricking. 1 tried to tell myself I did the right
thing, but I felt pretty guilty sitting there watching

As soon as I finished my calisthenics, a big guy in a
black rubber sweat suit grabbed me to do the drills with
him. We were doing takedowns that day and he threw me
around like putty. None of the wrestlers knew exactly who
he was, just that he comes down to work out every now
and then. He turned out to be a bartender who wrestled at
a junior college before flunking out.
Scrimmaging for the day consisted of two
eight-minute matches done in shifts with some of the
non-wrestlers refereeing. I reffed a few matches (my real
future in the sport), almost scared to insult anyone by
asking for a match. Finally Michael got 150-pound starter
Mitch Draina to take me on.

knowledge, Joe was the only one in the gym who came
specifically to watch me. My only fan.

The hairy dilemna
The fifth and final day was my only full practice
session, and physically the toughest one for me. After
practicing pinning combinations, which I’d certainly have
no need for, everyone was to have four three-minute
matches. For me this meant getting beaten, battered and
torn apart in every conceivable manner. Larry Bachman,
called pretzel man by his teammates, was particularly
trying. He twisted my limbs and torso in ways I never
thought they could be contorted. Against Tom

The NFTA is deliberating whether to build an overhead

No one who has ever seen (and heard) the New York City

Freedom of speech is a textbook ideal; academic freedom

been fired, demoted and repressed in a conservative backlash
to the late sixties, resulting in a cautious attitude among
liberals, lest they be too outspoken in the face of
conservative political winds.
In the repressive climate that permitted both Watergate
and Kent State, liberals have two choices: they can fight for
their beliefs without prostituting their principles, or can
"fight fire with fire" and try to repress the other side. Since
repression is indiscriminately used by the racist
Establishment, and we oppose racism, some argue, we must
fight back by using the enemy's tactics and silencing the

opposition.

Except that when liberals use suppression in support of
an ideological cause, they lose any claim to criticize the
opposition for doing the same. By adopting fascist tactics,
they condone their use.
To suggest that blacks score tower on IQ tests because
they are genetically inferior is outrightracism. But to suggest
that people with abhorrent or extreme ideas not be allowed
to speak is racism too. Some care little for the tactics
employed as long as the end

because this newspaper has publicized the theories of Jensen
and Shockley, we are unwitting dupes playing into the hands
of racist propagandists.
This is utter nonsense. Silencing Dr. Shockley will not
affect racist government policies; convincing people he is
wrong in public debate, however, might cause people to
change their thinking, and subsequently, their government.
Jensen ism must be publicized; not to support any illusory
freedom, but to expose it as political propaganda hiding
behind the camouflage of "science."
The antiwar movement helped turn the country against
the Vietnam War, but focusing on the immorality and racism
of the mass murder of Asians changed more people's thinking
than the violent takeover of buildings. Spotlighting the
racism of the war forced people to stop looking the other
way. Similarly, how many people know of Shockley's mass
sterilization plans? Only by publicizing his racist mentality,
not by

Racism is a deadly disease that has infected our society.
People did hot learn their racism from Dr. Shockley, but
from stereotypes, generalizations and myths. If it were

in the world were sterilized tomorrow, many people would

Dececco (a deciple of Jensen, who presents Jensen’s
“findings” as gospel) is used here. And now The
Spectrum editorializes that when political parties
and student governments militantly organize to stop
the propagation of such views, that it is a
“frightening trend.” This is precisely the kind of
cooperation that Shockley is looking for.
Shockley ought to be sterilized and Jensen hung
up by this toes. Their racist “theory” is even now
being used to justify genocidal practice. Both have
ignored the scientific refutation of their lies, and
only militant action by students, teachers and others
will put an end to their desemnation.
As communists, we in PLP realize that racism
and its apologies will not be wiped out until
capitalism is destroyed; we know, too, that the
racism that divides the working class is the biggest
obstacle to socialist revolution.

Concert Consolation
To the Editor

It seems that Mr. H. “Black Cultural
Appreciating," “Jazz loving,” Punk (correction) Pye
was very upset about not having a chance to see one
of our great Black musicians in action. I think that
the poor boy was really upset, I bet he just went
home and cried, then afterwards sent a letter to his
uncle Punk (correction) pye, informing him that due
to mismangement of money his motza supply was
short and that he was a month behind on his J.D.L.
dues so he needed some money desperatly.
His uncle 99 out of a 100 chances is the
landlord of at least one of Hr. Huberts family so I
guess Mr. Pye his mother and who ever else was
involved with him got there refunds in spades.
However I do sympathize with Mr. Pye, because
Poor Mr. Pye didn’t get the chance to cream on his
self while listening to Blackness in motion and sitting
among all those beautiful black people.
So for Mr. Pye I have a sonsolation. If Mr. Pye
would kindlcome to the B.S.U. office before Dec.
20th I will give him a personally autographed dildo
and a years supply of aphrodisiac motzas. When he
arrives all he need do is ask for Mr. F. U. Daily.
Thank You.

of Kicking your ass.

In the bowels ofHarriman Hall, where 1 spend
much of my time, there exists a vending machine.
One of the vast legion bf machines which seize
money and occasionally render up merchandise. The
machine in question is one of the potato chips,
pretzel, and cheese twistee etc. kind. And therein lies
this particular tale of man’s madness and strange
behavior. In a microcosm of the world doth all this
unfold.
y
In the beginning, vending changed distributors
and bought the cheese twists they put in their
machines from a new company. And they put all
these packages of ndw kind of cheese twistees in this
vending machine, and you know what? They don’t
come out so good. They arc too big, these packages.
They have to be tugged, pulled and cajoled to come
out of the machine, and they frequently rip in the
process.
It may be that there in the basement of
Harriman, we have the only vending machine on
campus with a narrow orifice, so to speak. And that
only there is a difficulty in extracting things from
machines which the machines decide to reluctantly
yield. It may be. Forgive me if 1 doubt it, but
perhaps one should be optimistic to the end

(Wasn’t he just inaugurated as Vice-President? No,
that’s Mr. Clean.) You know, before Christmas, New
Year’s, Sober-up Day, Credit Card Bill Receiving
Day, and all those critical days of celebration and
festivity. Speaking of critical, that is what I seem to
be being. Exactly why I am not quite sure. My
assumption is that I am being defensive. But that
is almost a reflex, 1 always assume that 1 am being
defensive. Which would be all right if I wasn’t
usually right.
Anyway, what is there to get defensive about at
Christmas time? Well, for one thing, wait until you

me-

CmnMt

/*•/*

Ho, Ho, Ho? Or how about Happy Ides of March,
everybody?
Suspicious, very suspicious. No one goes about
being at any other time of the year. Why should 1
believe it now? You’re going to do it, do it for 365
consecutive days and I might, just might, allow
myself to tentatively believe it. I mean, can you give
me a reason why I should start to believe something
which under the very improbable probability that
I should deem it safe tb believe anything like that
could lead to all sorts of anxiety-provoking
experiences? Doesn’t it make much more sense,
efficiency-wise, to simply get anxious now, rather
than later? I thought you would see it my way!
Another anxiety-provoking experience for me is
the annual controversy about whether or not to get a
Christmas tree. The fantasy runs something along the
lines of: Suppose you were standing there in the
midddle of a crowd, not going anywhere, not
bothering anybody, just digging on the rest of the
people around you, and some tree walked up to you,
walked around you, yelled, “Here’s a nice one,
dear,” and proceeded to cut you off below the knee,
and carry you home to be stuck in a bucket of
water. Merry Christmas, tree.
Fertile imagination or not, it does seem wasteful
to me. What 1 would really like is kind of a tree in a
tub that could be picked up and carried inside and
used for a Christmas tree. Then I could go bananas
and hang all my apples and oranges and lemons and
limes on the tree and get turned on by the odor
without feeling guilty about the tree. Wherein lies a
basic key to my makeup: Long hours are spent
trying to figure out how to get what I want without
feeling guilty about it. Usually without such great
success, but what the hell, it keeps me occupied.
Saw them hauling trees into the Union on the
3rd, I think. The 3rd of December! Poor tree does
even have a chance to let its branches sag and look
ugly. (You think all those trees really look that bad
when you go out to cut your own? Try going back in
January, you wouldn’t believe the difference.) Here’s
your fresh Christmas trees, folks. Guaranteed not to
have been cut before the first of October. Maybe we
should just put tinsel on a pumpkin. Mumble, gripe,
bitch, complain, growl!
Alright already. Merry Christmas and Happy
New Year. May all your marks be A’s, and may you
not have to return a single Christmas present. And if
you start to feel weird, you might let it occur to you
that the other person just might feel the same way
that you do. It’s a tough time of year for many of
us. Take a Holiday-phobic to lunch over the
vacation. Take care, come back well. Pax.

a tournament that featured

final at St. John’s Arena Saturday
night.
Central Michigan defeated
American University
in the
tourney opener, coming from
behind for a 93-90 victory. The
second contest pitted the Bulls
against the host Barons. Buffalo
had taken an early lead against
glue-fingered Steubenville squad,
who would rather pass than shoot.
Leading 30-23, the Bulls had a
chance to increase their lead to
nine but missed a shot and the
cashed
Barons
in on the
opportunity to score and pull
within five at halftime.
Brawley puts Bulls ahead
Steubenville battled back in
the second half to command a
four-point lead (4440) with threy
minutes left. Then the real fun
began. Horace Brawley turned
into a one-man scoring machine,
cashing in on two field goals and
five of six free throws to give the
Bulls what appeared to be a
winning cushion of 4948 with ten
seconds left and the Bulls
retaining possession of the ball.
Tom Tobias then missed an
easy layup, grabbed his own
rebound and turned the ball over
on a traveling violation with five
seconds left. The ball was put into
,

play and the Barons’ Jim Garrigan
was fouled by Ken Pope with no
time remaining on the clock.
Garrigan coolly dropped both
charity tosses through the hoop,
giving victory to the undefeated
Barons.
“All 1 can say is 1 didn’t do it,”
said Pope about his foul. “I saw
him coming and I jumped away
from him. I played close to him
all game and kept his shooting
down (Garrigan, the Barons’
leading scorer, was 2 of 14 from
the field). You’ve got to give him
credit. He made those two shots
under pressure with no time left
on the clock,” Pope added.
The Bulls lost another close
contest Saturday, dropping an
85-76 decision to American.
Buffalo, down 44-42 at the half,
fell behind quickly after the
halftime break, and the Eagles
never looked back.
Bulls to settle on starters
“1 think we’re getting better,”
remarked
Richardson. “We’re
beginning to look like a basketball
team. Right now we’ve got to
settle on a starting five and work
on that. Right now that five
would be Goss and Pope at
guards, Dickinson and Brawley at
the forward spots and either
Tobias or Jones at center.”
One bright spot for the Bulls
was Brawley’s improved play
during the tournament. Brawley
was runnerup in the MVP voting,
won by Steubenville’s Tim Hirten.
Hirten was instrumental in the
Baron’s championship contest,
which saw only one field goal
attempt (by Central Michigan) in
the first ten minutes of the second
half. “1 thought he (Brawley)
looked like himself again,”
observed Richardson. “He showed
a lot of leadership out there
tonight (Saturday).”

Sudden death
by Dave Geringer

An ECAC ruling cost Boston University’s hockey squad the
services of freshman star Dick Decloe last season and several victories in
which Decloe participated. The Terriers also would have lost the
services of sophomores Bill Buckton and Pete Marzo had they not sued
the ECAC and NCAA recently for the right to return to intercollegiate
competition. A preliminary injunction issued several days ago granted
Buckton and Marzo the right to play for Boston University until the
case is decided, probably in 1974.
The precedent for the ECAC’s ruling against Buckton and Marzo
was set when the ECAC declared Decloe ineligible last season and
ordered Boston U. to forfeit the games in which Decloe participated.
The ECAC ruled that all “foreign” hockey players who receive “salary,
educational expense, or any expense in excess of actual and necessary
travel expenses” had forfeited their eligibility. IN addition, any player
competing in Tier One Junior A hockey would be ineligible. The ruling
also stated that those players competing before the 1971-72 season (the
rule was passed in 1971) would not be penalized had they played Tier
One Junior A hockey before the 1971-72 season.
Decloe played for the London Knights during the 1970-71 season.
While playing with the Knights, Decloe s team paid an education tax
for him. Decloe’s experience in Junior A hockey and the fact that his
tax was paid for him by the London team were held against him by the
ECAC.
Understandably, the athletic department at Boston University did
not want to repeat the Decloe experience. Therefore, when an
investigation by Boston University disclosed the fact that Buckton and
Marzo might be ineligible, athletic director Warren Schmakel declared
that Buckton and Marzo could not play hockey. The ECAC ruled
Buckton and Marzo ineligible in August. However, Buckton and Marzo

retained a lawyer, and when subsequent evidence showed that Buckton
and Marzo had violated a rule which was repealed in 1971, Boston U.
declared them to be eligible. The ECAC refused to follow suit. The
court suit which gave Buckton and Marzo the right to play hockey
followed the ECAC’s refusal.
Buckton and Marzo had received money for travel, room and
board expenses. As Judge Joseph Tauro said; “There is no difference
between what they received and what someone would receive at
Andover Academy.” Certainly, American players have received more
than Buckton and Marzo did in the form of scholarships at prep schools
like Andover Academy. Scholarships covering tuition, room and board
have been issued many times to Americans who have continued to play
hockey in college.
The ECAC has always used a “double standard”
applying one
rule to Americans and another to Canadians and other foreign players.
A ruling that Canadian Junior college transfers had to sit out one year
after transferring (unlike players from American Junior colleges who
are immediately eligible) cost the hockey Bulls the services of Les
Teplicky and Dale Dolmage for one year each. These rules should be
revised so the “double standard” policy is ended.

The Buckeyes, who showed
that they had lost none of their
fire-power despite losing four

graduation, turned a 3-2 game
into a 5-2 contest with a pair of
goals shortly before the end of
their first period Friday night.
The Bulls trailed the Buckeyes by
only 2-1 after the first period of
Saturday’s contest, but a pair of
goals forty-one seconds apart and
then another pair ten seconds
apart in the middle period gaveOhio State a 6-1 lead after two
stanzas.

Two lines did most of the
damage for the Buckeyes. Captain
Ray Meters’ trio, with Steve
Pankiw and Bill Davidge tallied
eight times in the two games. The
line featuring Bruce Allworth and
Cecil Jacobs, which was centered
by Paul Davis on Friday night and
Hugh Prentice Saturday, scored
nine times against Buffalo.

have,” said Farkas. “I knew that
they were powerful. They were
scoring almost all of their goals
from the slot,” Farkas added.
Bull coach Ed Wright was
dismayed at the fact that the Bulls
had been outscored 4-0 in the
second period Saturday night.
“We played two decent periods of
hockey and, as usual, had one bad
period,” said Wright. “Hopefully,
before the season’s over, we’re
going to put together three
periods of consistent hockey.”

Walford acknowledged that the
Buckeyes had gone out in search
of skaters last year. “We’ve got to
have kids that can skate,” said
Walford. “That’s definitely the
prime requisite.”'
Bull goaltender, John Moore,
who turned aside 40 of 47 shots
in Saturday night’s contest,
compared . the Buckeyes to

Green sets up better,” analysed
Moore. “Ohio State tried to break
out with one man and have
someone follow up and look for
the rebounds. They (Buckeyes)
didn’t waste any time
they
looked for the open man in front
of the net. They get their shots

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

inferiorityShockley silenced in N. Y.
Editor’s note: In 1969psychologist Arthur
Jensen published a report suggesting that
blacks scored lower than whites on IQ tests
because of genetic factors. This ignited a
national controversy and caused Dr. Jensen
and proponents of his theories to be
branded by maty as “racist. ’’Part I of this
series deals with the obstacles facing
proponents of so-called genetic inferiority,
most recently encountered at Staten Island
Community College, and describes the
alleged curtailment of their academic
freedom. Part 2 will examine the scientific
basis behind Jensenism and explain what
opponents and proponents have to say
about Dr. Jensen's conclusions.

William Shockley, the Nobel
prize-winning physicist who has become
embroiled in the controversy over race,
heredity and intelligence, rose to speak to
the crowd at Staten Island Community
College. He was greeted by a clapping,
whistling, shouting group of students
intent on preventing him from speaking
because, as one student said: “You don’t
let racists talk.”
The Shockley incident occurred two
weeks ago, four yean after psychologist
Arthur Jensen Tint published a report
suggesting that the IQ deficit of blacks
on the average about 10 to 20 points less
than whites on most intelligence tests
could be attributed predominantly to
hereditary differences in genes.

Branded ’racist’

Jrt**y

logy Today,

The Jensen Report challenged the
long-standing doctrine that all men are
created equal, regardless of race. Outraged
academicians and non-professionals alike
attacked the Jensen Report as “racist” and
“unscientific.” Proponents of Jensenism,
particularly William Shockley and Richard
Hermstein, have also faced charges of
“racism” in their attempts to explain the
difference between black and white IQ

.-H—

Dr. Shockley, a Stanford University
physicist who won the Nobel Prize as the
co-inventor of the transistor, became
interested in the relationship between race
and heredity shortly after the Jensen
Report was released. He is well-known for
his controversial “bonus sterilization clan,”

under which both blacks and whites with
sufficiently low IQs would receive cash
incentives if they agreed to be sterilized.
This sterilization plan has been
advocated by Dr. Shockley because of his
fear of dysegenics which he defines as
retrogressive evolution through the
disproportionate reproduction of die
genetically disadvantaged.
Simply stated, dysegencis is an
undesirable change in the gene pool. If
implemented on a large scale, this
sterilization plan would amount to a mass
breeding of society in which persons of
lower intelligence would not reproduce.
Additionally, Dr. Shockley has frequently
described blacks as “genetically inferior,”
according to an article by Berkeley Rice in
the December 1973 issue of Psychology
Today.
Clapping and shouting
Dr. Shockley was one of four scheduled
speakers at Staten Island Community
College (SICC). He was originally the only
speaker, but after initial protest to his
invitation, three other speakers of opposing
views were invited to “balance” the
program. The first two speakers, Thomas
Sever and Marc Lappe, attacked the
Shockley/Jensen argument. As Dr.
Shockley began his presentation, a small
group of students began their clapping,
shouting and blowing of police whistles.
Frances Welsing, a black psychiatrist and
fervent opponent of the Shockley doctrine
appealed to the crowd to let Dr. Shockley
speak. Although most of the crowd
apparently wanted to listen and some
argued with the demonstrators, the
disruptions continued.
The number of demonstrators was
estimated at between SO and 100, out of a
crowd of about 1000 people. There was an
“organized effort” to stop Dr. Schockley
from speaking, according to Fred
Armentrout, editor of the News Ferry,
Staten Island’s student newspaper.
“Stop Shockley’
Contrary to news reports, explained Mr.
Armentrout, the demonstrators were not
operating out of “a Progressive Labor Party
[PLP] power base." Instead, the student
government was the prime force in
organizing the demonstration, according to
Mr. Armentrout. The “stop Shockley”

William Birenbaum, S1CC President,
halted the program after 25 minutes of the

disturbance, and later said Dr. Shcokley
was "outraged” because his “ability to
speak had not been implemented.” Campus
security officers had lined the hall but did
not move against the demonstrators
because they had been instructed to act

only to maintain physical order.
“Dr. Shockley was ready to be pinned
to the wall by the other speakers,” said Dr.
Birenbaum. “Fear, paranoia or dosed
minds” may have been responsible for the
demonstrators’ action' he speculated.
The demonstrators gave three reasons
for their vehement effort to prevent Dr.
Shockley from speaking. First, they
claimed his ideas have already resulted in a
cutback in government funds for Head
Start and compensatory educational
programs: “Why try to help someone by
altering their environment when genetics
have already determined their outcome?”
the demonstrators’ attitude was explained
in the Village Voice.
Secondly, they claim that Shockley’s
theories are scientifically incorrect. Finally,
the “stop Shockley” coalition believes that
“low IQ propaganda threatensblacks with
imminent oppression as inferiors, and must
therefore be stopped without worrying
about free speech,” the Voice reported.
‘To be against racism is a very idealistic
thing,” commented Dr. Birenbaum. “But
to be for the First Amendment [freedom
of speech] is also a very idealistic thing.”
Couldn’t teach course
This is not the first time Dr. Shockley’s
stand on IQ and heredity have immersed
him in controversy. In 1972, Stanford
University refused to allow Dr. Shockley to
teach a course on genetics, explaining that
such a course would be “polemical” and
that his qualifications to teach the course
were “subject to doubt.” Although Dr.
Shockley is a renowned scientist, critics
have contended that his lack of formal
training and research render him
unqualified to teach in that area.
Additionally, the University of Leeds
recently rescinded an honorary degree
awarded him for his work in electrical
engineering because of his views on race.
When the Leeds Speakers Association later
announced his scheduled appearance at a
debate last year, a group of outraged
students “blocked” his invitation,
according to Duke Weiss, a State University
of Buffalo student spending a semester at
Leeds. And when Dr. Shockley recently
appeared on British television, a fight
erupted in the studio audience between his
opponents and those who supported his
right to speak.
A similar public outcry greeted the
1969 Jensen Report and its author, an
educational psychologist at the University
of California at Berkeley. “Almost
overnight I became a cause celebre, at least
on college campuses. 1 had spoken ... ‘the
unspeakable.’ Too many Americans, 1 had
thought the unthinkable,” Dr. Jensen
maintained.

Eight educational psychologists from
this University rebutted in a letter to the
Harvard Educational Review:
“While it might be desirable to have
access to the commentary and criticism of
Jensen’s article when discussing it, it is not
in the best scientific or academic tradition
to insist that a scholary product must be
ringed-about by interpretations before it is
circulated further within the scholarly
community
Your policy.appears to be
at best anti-intellectual, and at worst a
form of censorship.” Under mounting
pressure and criticism, the Review finally
reversed their position and agreed to
distribute reprints of the Jensen Report.

Called ‘obscene’

The next obstacle to the Jensen Report
the Society for the
Psychological Study of Social Issues
(SFSSI). They released a statement calling
Dr. Jensen’s report “unwarranted by the
present state of scientific knowledge.”
The SPSS1 also set up a commission to
study the Jensen Report, consisting of 11
members
one of whom had previously
called Dr. Jensen a “white supremacist;”
another who had termed his article
“obscene;” a third who had labelled his
report “academic manure.” Another
member of the commission concluded that
the Jensen Report contained “53 major

have to think twice about addressing
students again," concluded Dr. Eysenck.
Harvard professor Richard Hermstein,
another proponent of Jensenism, has met
with similar opposition: “Radical groups
disrupted his classes and lectures, and
generally made his life unpleasant,” Dr.
Rice reported in Psychology Today.
The Harvard Crimson, the student
newspaper, stated in an editorial that the
“threat of Hermstcin’s ideas is more
dangerous than the threat of the radical
groups that had disrupted his classes.”
‘In some cases,” wrote the Crimson,
“when theorists become policy-makers, the
distinction between ideas and action
vanishes. In such cases, the phrase
intellectual freedom no longer applies and
academic community can no longer offer
...

sanctuary.”

“White supremacist’
The Jensen Report became the subject
of stories in Time, Life,, Newsweek, The
New York Times and other national
publications. These stories “played up the
racial aspect of Jensen’s article, rather than
his complex analysis of the relationship
between heredity and intelligence,”
Berkeley Rice commented in Psychology
Today.
An “outcry to fire Dr.' Jensen”
immediately followed the Jensen Report,
explained Norman Solkoff, professor of
Psychology at the State University of
Buffalo. Irate students at Berkeley
clamored for his dismissal, SDS handbills
labeled him as “Berkeley’s white
supremacist,” and student demonstrators
interrupted his classes, prompting Dr.
Jensen to move his seminars to secret
meeting places.
The Harvard Educational Review, which
published the Jensen Report, halted sales
of reprints of the report amidst the public
furor. They decided to withhold further
distribution of the Jensen Report until
they could solicit comments and opposing
viewpoints. The Jensen Report “presents a
view of intelligence that we feel must be
read in the context of expert discussion
from other psychologist and geneticists,”
the editors.

Friday,

The American Anthropological
Association has also condemned the
“racist, sexist or anti-working class theories
of genetic inferiority” of Dr. Jensen, Dr.
Shockley and Dr. Hermstein as “dangerous
and unscientific.”
False label
‘The civil rights movement that gained
momentum into the 1950s ‘required’
liberal academic adherence to the theory
that the environment was responsible for
any individual or racial behavioral
differences, and the corollary belief in
genetic equality in intelligence,” Dr. Jensen
maintained in an article in Psychology
Today (December 1972). ‘Thus, when I
questioned such beliefs I, and my theories,
quickly acquired the label racist. I resent
this label, and consider it unfair and

inaccurate.”
Dr. R,ice continued: “Jensen and

Hermstein have questioned our society’s
social and academically accepted belief in
Perhaps the liberals,
genetic equality
who normally would be the first to defend
intellectual freedom, failed to do so this
time because it meant freedom to question
one of their own cherished beliefs.”
“Their commitment to intellectual
freedom may hold only so long as their
own ox is not gored," he concluded.

Coupling and uncoupling, a

Can the legal formality of marriage help secure
a relationship? Marriage and other alternatives were
discussed by a panel of eight at the final human
sexuality lecture sponsored by Life Workshops.

two grown-up children who are leaving home, is
“struggling to work out a relationship without

“kinds of loyalties one has to one’s mate if two
people are married or simply living together. At the
time when I got married, the thought of living
together never really entered my mind, and it
would have definitely freaked out my relatives,” he
said.

Body and mind
Sex was the major factor that sparked his
marriage, Jerry explained, because he “needed his
wife’s body and mind. “After sex wasn’t as

�Professors endeavor to inititate
Office of Teaching Effectiveness
by Cassle Roberts

As the age-old controversy over teaching versus
research continues to be debated across the University,
several professors are trying a new approach: they are
seeking to establish an Office of Teaching Effectiveness.
“That’s how things get done in this University,” said
Allen Kuntz with a smile. “It starts with someone who
cares.” Since 1970, Dr. Kuntz has been organizing and
working with various committees concerned with
monitoring and evaluating the effectiveness of teaching at
this University. There is a subliminal pressure in this
University on teachers to publish, noted Dr. Kuntz.
However, “excellence in teaching” is the primary factor in
determining the quality of a school, he believes. The
director of the Student Testing Service, Dr. Kuntz, is
heading a committee which will investigate the possibility
of establishing an Office of Teaching Effectiveness. Such
an office will enable both students and faculty to have
input into the methods of evaluating and examining the
effectiveness of teachers and teaching methods at this
University.

More feedback sought
The person largely responsible for determining how
such an office would operate is Bruce Francis of the
Survey Research Center. He presently views it as “an
operation within Student Testing and Research." In
gathering information about how the program would
work, Dr. Francis and other members of Dr. Kuntz’s
committee have concentrated their efforts in three areas:
-An analysis of courses and teaching. This involves
the use of the ACT (Analysis of Courses and Teaching)
forms distributed in the classrooms, in which students tell
what they like and don’t like about their instructors and
their courses. However, this feedback is only “half the
job” as it offers no means by which teaching can be
improved, said Dr. Francis. Research in this area indicates
that “student evaluations of teaching effectiveness
when
based on properly-designed questionnaires and when
properly evaluated
can provide a valid, reliable gauge of
teaching effectiveness," he explained. An Office of
Teaching Effectiveness would seek to eliminate “faculty
suspicions of the validity of these evaluations.”

development programs. These efforts would
aim at offering various opportunities to improve faculty
skills primarily in teaching, but also in research. This could
be accomplished through the use of reading materials,
which the Office of Teaching Effectiveness would provide,
and seminars and workshops which “could provide faculty
with an opportunity to interact with one another in
discussing good teaching,” explained Dr. Francis. The
Office hopes to provide more widespread incentives for the
improvement of teaching at this University. This could be
achieved by offering public recognition for good teaching;
in the form of contract renewal,
personnel advancement
in which teaching effectiveness
promotion and tenure
would “be given more weight than it has been up to. this
time;” and monetary rewards such as salary hikes and
merit raises.
In the area of research and development, the Office of
Teaching Effectiveness “could act as a source of funds for
faculty members who wish to experiment with innovative
teaching styles,” he commented, hoping that this would
encourage a more creative approach to teaching.
-Improving the method of evaluation. Present

Financial aid

Possible consolidation of programs
by Ian DeWaal
Campus Editor

Consolidation of all the existing programs of student financial aid in the state
under one agency has been recommended

by the New York State Senate Committee

on Higher Education.
Citing the fragmentation of existing programs of college financial aid, the Committee concluded that the system “has lost
touch” with, the needs of the students it is
intended to setve. They recommended the
creation of a Higher Education Services
Committee as an umbrella organization for
financial aid.
Senate Majority Leader Warren B.
Anderson, who endorsed the report, said
he had been alerted to the problems of distributing financial aid in his own district
when two students living on his block, each
with a father employed by the same com-

pany and with similar incomes, applied for
loans at different colleges in the State University of New York (SUNY). One student
received an award while the other was
found ineligible.

‘100 times over’
“If such inequities exist within our
State University, it is not difficult to
imagine that such cases are magnificed 100
times over across the State, with its vast
public and private university complex,”
said Sen. Anderson.
When asked if there was a detrimental
lack of coordination among the various
financial aid programs in. the State,
Director of Student Financial Aids for
SUNY Central Administration Martin
Lcfkovits said: “Very definitely. Not only
is there a multiplicity of applications, but
the criteria are different, sometimes only
for the reason that the programs were
created at different times,” he said. ‘There

an overlapping of programs, not
they were planned that way, but
it just happened.”
Committee found that different
agencies consider economic status, social
condition and academic performance when
granting aid, but that the standards for
each agency are so varied that the system is
not only confusing but inequitable. “A
sensible, uniform and simplified balance of
the three broad concerns” should be
“incorporated into the State’s effort in
student financial aid,” he addqd.
New York State directly supports 16
separate aid programs, including
scholarships, grants and loans, according to
the report. In addition, non-state
governments, private businesses,
foundations and other agencies support
over 70 separate aid programs involving
scholarships, grants; work-study and loans.
“The existing and emerging non-State
programs with their varying eligibility and

is also

because
The

awards standards make the State’s Higher
Education Assistance efforts even more
complicated,” the report stated.
Mr. Lefkovits agreed that some sort of
centralized administrative agency would
benefit the financial aid programs in the
State: “Any administrative mechanism
which would at least lessen the number of
applications a student had to complete
would be a favorable result.”
No final reaction is forthcoming at this
time from SUNY Central Administration,
reported Mr. Lefkovits. “We have received
a copy of the report and have started going
over it.” Central Administration as well as
any other group must make their responses
by January I. After that date, the
Committee will begin drafting legislation to
implement its findings.
‘The particular mechanism they tthe
Committee] are suggesting may or may not
be the proper one,” said Mr. Lefkovits. “I
am not ruling it out, we just haven’t made
a final analysis yet. It is in the right
direction,” he continued. “Specifically

Although college students are
the most suicide-prone group, the
number of suicides reported on
this campus is low, according to
Lee Griffin,, Assistant Director of
Campus Security. There have been
no reported attempts this year
and only one is on record for last
year. Although state law requires
Campus Security to be notified, it
is possible some suicide attempts
by students on campus have been
handled by other organizations
such as Sunshine House or the
Suicide Prevention and Crisis
Service. “Even if there were a
large number of attempted
suicides and they weren’t
reported, we would have heard
about them through the
grapevine," Mr. Griffin
commented.
Some rural schools might have
more of a problem with
depression and suicide due to the
the complete change

environment for the out-of-town

Incarceration

Nine states in the US. still
maintain that suicide is a criminal

offense, but New York State is
not one of them. Suicide and
suicide attempts in this state are
covered under the Health Code,
which in turn, under Federal law,
mandates that every state must

provide mandatory psychiatric
hospitalization of three to fifteen
days for any person attempting
suicide. The actions required of
Campus Security in attempted
suicides can therefore be viewed
not as punitive in nature, but
rather as necessary so the person
in question receives proper
counseling.
But many critics familiar with
the nature and practices of
psychiatric hospitals find this
hospitalization provision
objectionable. Critics of the
Federal law also point out the
contradiction of a person being
forcibly incarcerated for a
non-criminal offense and the
tremendous power this gives
psychiatrists when they are legally
able to commit a person to
months or years in a hospital
without the person’s consent and,
many times, without court review
of the case. Once a person
becomes a patient in a psychiatric
or mental hospital, he is stripped
of his legal rights; the protections
afforded the individual under the
Constitution and the Bill of
Rights are tossed right out the
window. An American citizen,
once incarcerated after a suicide
attempt, becomes something less
than an American citizen. In the
last couple of years, however,
efforts have been made to insure
that the confined patient retains
his legal rights as a citizen.
Empathizing with the caller
“Most of the suicides we get
are not going to be terminal, that
is, not completed. Most people
can be talked out of it once they

crisis center located at 106
Winspear Avenue, is available not

In training their own staff,
Sunshine House volunteers are
given no concrete ways of dealing
with crisis calls or situations.
Instead, the training program is
designed to give the volunteers
“ideas of good psychological
methods” to use in crisis
counseling. These “methods”
emphasize “tuning into the
caller’s emotions and empathizing;
relaxing and calming him down,”
explained the spokesman. In a
number of indirect ways,
volunteers try asking callers the
question: “What’s bothering you?
What would make you want to
commit suicide?” He continued;
“Motives are the hardest thing to

My own junior high school career, of course, was as
fishy as they come. After I was cut from the basketball
team, the wrestling coach (also my football coach) talked
me into going out for wrestUhg. Practices were long, hard,
hot and hopelessly boring. As a fish I grew accustomed to
getting pinned, wrestling’s ultimate disgrace. Seven of the
losses in my 0-8 record were by the pin route. I even
developed an infection bn the small of my back due to
such constant exposure to the mat. Only a callous
disregard for what pride I have left, as well as the passage
of time, allows me to admit to such a hapless career.
Nonetheless, something about the sport appealed to
me, and though I never went out for the wrestling ttam
again I studied the sport as a fan and enthusiastic gym class
participant. Last year, while writing about Buffalo's varsity
squad, I would work out with some of the guys from time

Rule 1 Section 11 of the N.C.A.A. wrestling
regulations reads as follows: "Contestants shall be clean
shaven, free of mustaches, sideburns trimmed nff lower
than the ear lobe and hair trimmed and well groomed.
Because of the body contact involved, this rule has been
approved in the interests of health, sanitary and safety
measures." There are further stipulations as to the length
of hair. Before this rule was liberalized several years ago,
no sideburns at all were allowed and hair on the top of the
head was kept even shorter. Even in its present form,
however, the rule is pretty archaic.

Gum chewer exiled

To the Editor.

An incident occuring this past week in a
first-level music course should be called to the
attention of not only the students in Baird Hall, but
also students in various other departments of the
University. One student was quickly and
unnecessarily ejected from a large lecture class
because of the professor’s dislike for gum-chewing.
This move seemed to be not only unnecessary and
personally offensive to the student involved and the
class, but also an uncalled-for disturbance and
infringement of a personal freedom. It must be
noted that this particular student was seated in an
unobvious spot, and not likely to cause a distrubance
within the class among such a large group.
This attitude toward such personal habits is
practically obsolete even at the high school level, and
a total absurdity at a public University. This letter is

Throtigh the
ooking Glaee
by Barry Kaplan

Karl Marx wrote the major critique of classic
capitalism in the 19th century
a century that
had witnessed the cruel horrors of emerging
industrialism. In his major opus, Das Capital, Marx
painstakingly indicted capitalism as the basic
mechanism of economic exploitation and the
resulting economic misery in England. Although
the legacy of Karl Marx has been revised and
updated, it has resulted in little more than an
attempt to shore up weak ideological concepts
rather than a major revision of Marxism itself. This
patchwork revision has resulted in the sad scenario
of impressionistic parroting followers, attempting
to use any outdated analytical tool upon a system
that needs new, rather than old, methods of
analysis.
The idea that Marxism, as an intellectual
system, no longer has validity in our modern
world, should not come as any great shock. Every
era in time has its own unique characteristics and
flavor, defenders and detractors. Adam Smith,
Herbert Spencer or other great intellects of their
time are not accepted as the gospel in our society
due to the rapidly-changing societal conditions
which have made many of their ideas obsolete.
There is no doubt that some of their ideas are still
valid, but these have been tempered by time. Yet
Karl Marx and many of his philosophic colleagues
have been accepted as dogma by people whose
brain processes are too lazy or slow to afford the
luxury of original thought. The young campus
radicals are attempting to critique a system that no
longer exists in reality
only in the mind of the
Marxist.
These campus radicals place upon the feet of
this supposed capitalist system all the ills of
modem society. Capitalism accounts for racism,
inequality between the sexes, imperialism, worker
alienation, and almost everything else under the
sun. According to these misguided Marxists, once
the capitalist system is removed, then these
symptomatic ills will also disappear. Unfortunately,
the ills of society will not disappear when
capitalism is* removed; capitalism, in the form that
Marx critiqued, died a long time ago. In countries
that are supposedly socialist or communist,
whatever your definition, the supposed ills of a
capitalistic society are quite apparent. Racism, class
inequality, pollution, drug abuse, worker alienation,
et. al. arc found wherever a modem society exists
not just in capitalist countries.
Supposedly capitalists countries have moved
far away from the crude model of Adam Smith
and Karl Marx. American capitalism, allegedly the
bulwark of the entire capitalistic system, is no
longer capitalistic, but a mixed
socialistic-capitalistic system. A factor that Marx
did not totally foresee was the growth of a
professional, self-perpetuating bureaucracy, far
removed from the hurly-burly of national limelight,
yet totally in control of all modem countries.
Capitalism reformed itself and corrected its worst
abuses, thus undercutting the main thrust of early
radical criticism. As capitalism reformed, it took a
closer resemblance to the systems of so-called
socialist states, and within 20 years there will be
no discernible difference.
In order to comprehend the weakness of a
Marxist critique, one must first understand the
system that he was rebelling against. This system of
classic capitalism propounded by the Manchester
school of thought called for free unrestricted
economic activity, unhampered by government
control. The problem of supply and demand was to
be regulated by a callous and unfeeling “iron
hand,” which would keep economic activity at its
qpper level. The key factor in this system would
be the profit motive and all other considerations,
either human or intellectual, would have to take a
back seat. The capitalist' would be motivated by
this profit motive, and since he controlled his
business, he could react to changing market
conditions. The workers were looked upon as a
piece of machinery to be used when necessary and
-

discarded when no longer of any necessity. The
classical economists did not really envision the
worker at the mercy of the capitalist, for they

assumed the “iron hand” would work in the
workers’ favor as well.
This classic capitalist system reached its
powerful place in the sun at the same time that the
Industrial Revolution occurred in England. Because
many of the advocates of capitalism attributed the
success of the Industrial Revolution to capitalism,
the misery that attended this transformation have
also been laid at the capitalistic doorstep.
Marx was not the first critic of capitalism, nor
was he the first socialistic thinker. His great
contribution to society was the ability to tic
together the confused mass of socialistic thinking,
while liberally sprinkling his own genius upon the
package. In Das Capital, Marx used the older
notion of surplus value to show that capitalism
could not function unless the worker was
exploited. In revealing the basic flaws in the
capitalistic system, Marx actually created his own
economic system which he hoped would replace
and destroy the exploitative capitalistic system. In
addition to his purely economic writings, Marx, at
time in conjunction with Engels, wrote essays upon
the meaning of work, alienation, on the dialectic of
history, and in essence, created an alternative
philosophic, as well as economic, system.
Yet the time has come to realize that the
Marxian model has reached a point of no return
it cannot critique a system that no longer conforms
to the model’s basic
Philosophically, the
system has no limits as the Frankfort school has
shown us, but economically it has very little value.
The United States, the major capitalist country, is
no longer ruled by a market economy. The
bureaucracy of this country sets prices, wages and
industrial regulations. The capitalist has been
replaced by the huge conglomerate, in which he is
just the hired hand of an entity that seems to have
its own life. The government has assumed basic
functions providing for the welfare of the
its ability to provide these functions
population
is not as important as its acceptance of them. The
dog-eat-dog capitalist mode) of competition has
been replaced by a few large units wishing to
maximize long-run profits rather than short-run
gain. In essence, the system that Marx disliked so
intensely has been replaced by a more sophisticated
and possibly more dangerous system.
Marx envisioned the State assuming the
functions that the American government has now
assumed, but he did not foresee it would remain in
the hands of the middle- and upper-classes. He did
not foresee the ability of the capitalist countries to
reform and compromise so the basic ideology
remained the same while the structure changed.
Marx would shudder at the measures taken in the
U55.R. in the name of socialism. It would seem
as if the economic structure of both Russia and the
U.S. has assumed similar basic characteristics.
This common form assumed by the U S S R,
and the U.S. is based on a need for a strong
every facet of modern
centralized state to
life, in order to meet the problems created by an
advanced technological society. One
historian-economist, Calvin Hoover, has predicted
that in a few years the economy of Russia and the
Unitedj States will be almost identical. This
changing structure has nothing to do with
capitalism .or socialism
it is a result of great
technological innovations which render previous
ideologies obsolete.
If we accept the notion that capitalism has
changed drastically, we must also assume that any
critique of capitalism that is based on an older
model must be rendered dysfunctional. What is
needed is a new critique of this economic-political
system based on present reality rather than past
beliefs. Let us acknowledge our debt to great
thinkers like Karl Marx, but let us move further
into the present and develop our great thinkers. If
we continue to utilize outmoded analytical tools,
we will be unable to see the causes of our present

The
Pete Hamill Column
(c)

by Pete Ham21
1973. New York Pott

New York now resembles some forlorn, shabby provincial
capital last night, as Richard ‘I’m not a crook’’) Nixon has gone on
TV again to rally us ‘round his latest plan for avoiding justice. Times
Square was even seedier than usual; the great office buildings were
black monoliths rising to the moonless sky; a chill wind, smelling of
fear, depression, and corruption blew down the streets. Something
is dying here, right before our eyes; it is as if our capacity for hope
has been insulted one too many times.
Nixon has a lot to do with all of this. The one thing that a
cheap yegg cannot do is hustle New York forever; this town is wise
to Nixon now, and nothing he says will ever again be taken
seriously, unless it involves the threatened destruction ofNew York.
Last night, he asked for dictatorial powers to deal with the energy
crisis, and masked the request with a lot of fear-mongering,
deception and kindergarten economics.
He called on us to cooperate with him in “the spirit of
discipline, self-restraint and unity” that has made America a great
country, blah blah blah. But this was Richard Nixon saying these
things; a man with so little discipline he has allowed the worst
collection of hustlers in history to work in this administration; a
man with so little self-restraint that he allowed any means to be
used for his personal ends; a man who has done more to demolish
national unity than anyone in this century.
He asked for a IS per cent cut in gasoline usage, the closing of
service stations from 9 p.m. on Saturdays to midnight on Sundays.
He would impose a maximum speed limit of SO mph across the
country (55 mph for buses and trucks), limit home oil supplies, and
end ornamental lighting. The last item means that Times Square
practically will go dark, possibly for years; it means no more
Christmas decorations in downtown Brooklyn, or Rockefeller
Center, or around private homes from Bensonhurst to Fordham
Road. It means, in short, lhat Nixon wants an America and a New
York that is as dismal, spiritless and dark as Nixon himself.
Imagine what this will mean. First of all, the quality of life in
djies will go even deeper into the American darkness. ‘It will
mean,” Nixon said,”
spending a little mote time at home.” He
smiled a little when he said it. We have to remember that this is a
man who" spent four years in New York in absolute anonymity, a
man who hides out in tiny offices, or in walled fortresses in
California or Key Biscayne.
But New Yorkers like to use their city. They like restaurants,
saloons, theaters, movie houses. They are not packrats; they are
citizens. They don’t want anyone to tell them they have to stay
home. But Nixon might succeed in making that happen, for the
simple reason that there will be fewer and fewer places to go to, as
this man spreads his schlocky plague. The closing of the gas stations
will severely damage the Broadway theater; movie houses will suffer
badly and so will the restaurants and other night places that feed off
the theater and movie crowd.
Tourists will simply stop coming to New York. The skyline and
Times Square are our great symbolic glories, but Nixon’s wonderful
management of the country will close them down for a long time.
New Yorkers, already intimidated by crime, will also stay away in
increasing numbers from the darkened streets of Manhattan. Well
become like those hulks of cities out in America’s heartland: dead,
empty, haunted.
Nixon, as usual, did not name the real villains of this- mess.
They are not simply the Arabs. We don’t really need Arab oil, and
could easily resist their cheap blackmail. The villains are the
American-controlled oil companies. We have supplies of natural gas
and shale oil in America to last, by some estimates, 100 years. But
the oil companies won’t go after those deposits until the prices are
higher. Nixon didn’t say that last night. Instead, he called for
“sacrifice.” Not from the oil companies; from working people.
...

Well, maybe it doesn’t matter. In the Bronx, youth gangs which
had one short bright season when they fought heroin and created a
sense of community for themselves, have gone sour now, raping
young girls, mutilating and murdering a transvestite. Arthur Logan,
a good, brave man, dies after a fall from a viaduct, and you cannot
believe it’s suicide. Three other New Yorkers killed themselves
yesterday. In Spofford House, New York kids, fight guards, and are
beaten down, engaged in spring training for later lives of violence
and barbarism.
And we sit in a dark city, with a cold wind blowing, facing
three more years of Nixon, four years of Abe Beame, in a time of
soaring prices and plunging stocks, confidence splintered, wallowing
in criminality and mediocrity. There are more things going out
around here than lights.

Editor's note: This interview with artist
Gil Kane begins The Spectrum's
expanded coverage of what's going on in
the wonderful world of pulp: comic
books and comix books. In the future,
in addition to interviews with the artists
themselves, we will be instituting a
comic book page, which will not only
attempt to establish a critical language
for comic books, but also act as a kind
of consumer guide for those interested
in purchasing such material. The main
emphasis of this section will be on the
works of the underground press. AH the
books mentioned in the future, whether
undergrounds or Marvel's, DC's and
EC's, are available at Queen City
Comics. Queen City has two stores, one
on Bailey Avenue and another on
Delaware Avenue. These are the only
stores in the city with a steady supply of
past undergrounds and new releases The
prices are fair and the management is a
bunch'a nice guys. For those interested
in the collectors end of it, all you
fanatical collectors should take a romp
on down to Marvel-ous comics on
Elmwood Avenue and see Tony Anello.
Queen City also has a gigantic supply of

Joe Fernbacher

Buffalo's fir-st comic book
was undoubtedly a success,
at least.from the fan-eye point of view.
All the pleasures inherent in shuffling
through piles and piles of ancient and
not-so-ancient comic books were fully
displayed by both youngsters and
oldsters alike. Artists spoke, met with
their fans, signed autographs and
generally had the attention and respect
they so justly deserve for their abilities
in the world of ink and color. Tony
Anello deserves a helluva lot of credit
for bearing up under the constant
organizational pressures that such an
event necessitates. He's already planning
the second annual Marvel-ous
convention for next year, around
Halloween, with a costume parade
around City Hall. The excitement of
pulp-hawking and fantasy-walking is
here to stay.
Off all the events during the four
days, the one which seemed to gain the
most attention was the arrival of artist
Gil Kane. He is a silver-haired, tall man
whose opinions never cease to flow,
whose articulations on the art world and

convention

its perpetuators are succinct and to the
point, no hemming 'n hawing from this
dude.
Q; What was the first complete comic
book that you did?
A: You mean book, or script?
Q: Book!
And then it began:
"Well it took a long time. Actually,
the whole idea of books didn't come
into ..
people didn't do complete
books. They did complete features.
Most features being either 6 or 8 or 10 or
12 pages in the beginning. And "it's only
now, since about the mid-fifties that
they moved into the complete book.
But I did Western features like Hopalong
Cassidy;, Johnny Thunder; and
superheroes like Green Lantern and the
Atom, who, incidentally, I made up.
They had a character by that name who
was five-foot-two, he was just a short
fellow, and they called him the Atom.
And that was about 20 years ago. when
I thought about having the Atom as a
really miniature figure, and there was a
very successful strip about 20 years ago
called the Dollmah, which has always
been one of my favorites. And I gave
them that. And to a great extent I
helped them pull together the Green
Lantern. The truth of the matter is this:
The field itself is a field that develops
people with intense skills with a kind of
limitation. There is very little content in
most of the material. There are very few
artists that have a quality, a range, a
scope in American comics. One of the
reasons for this is that American comics
are done under a factory system. They
keep breaking up the pencilling, the
inking, the writing; as a matter of fact,
all of these things reflect the editor
more than they do the individual artist.
And as a result, volume becomes the
most important thing for the artist in
order for him to make a decent living at
this stuff."
Do you think that with the advent of
the bigger, more complex
black-and-white magazines the artist will
have more freedom?
"Yes, I agree. I think that by degrees
it's already happening. Because you see
manifestations of it. However, I do
believe it's very hard for the artist not to
be involved in. the writing and really
develop a complex style. The only thing
that happens primarily, when the artists
aren't involved in the writing, is that
they become technicians, better than
technicians, they have a quality but it
never becomes more than a bravura
quality, a kind of external quality, it's
like the color red, it's hard to resist, but
really, not subtle enough, and it
becomes monotonous after awhile
because there's no range to what they
can do."
Do you think that the

artwork is fashioned nicely around the
pulp styles of the forties
angular, with
the cinematic stylization inherent in Bogart
films and all other crime films of the day.
This one is especially reminescent of
Edward G. Robinson's "Little Caesar"
film.

This one begins with yet another
adventure into the violent world of that
master of vindictiveness: The Viper. A
direct antithesis satire on the forties, and
on DC's current eerie crime-fighter, the
Shadow, the Viper is the master
grime-fighter, feeding on people's
continuous state of paranoia fear. Like a
sordid, soiled version of Mr. Clean, the
Viper amuses himself by interrupting and
occasionally completing acts of extreme
violence and vileness sort’a like sumthing
we'd all like to indulge ourselves in. This
Vipersode is entitled: "The Sub-Teen
Snatch-Snatch."
The story: a group of losers, led by Gus
"Grey Matter" Goldberg, kidnap a rich
miser's niece and demand the usual sum of
money for the pisspot's return. Naturally,
the Uncle gets up tight and his strained
vibrations harken unto the ever-sensitive
ears of the Viper
who's just finishing up
a neet little hatchet job with a knife. The
Viper seeks out the Uncle and then seeks
out the brat. He scares the mob away. He
returns the niece and unknowing Uncle
offers him a reward. No way. As the Viper
spits out: "The Viper valks alone ... he's a
mean motherfucker." Snuff. No more

Next is a Caesar Steele mystery called,

Wilson under the 1947 moniker of Howard
Arnhearst. Suffice it say that S. Clay is at
his sordid best here.

"Real Pulp Comics No. 2" ends up with
mildly futuristic tale of political
inevitability: "Violent Funnies," drawn in
a style which combines fluidity with an
overriding sense of dry wood by Charles
Dallas, tells of .street fighting, cop-snuffing,
drug-daath and mind freeze. Actually, it's a
morality tale about how gotod always
triumphs over evil because that's the way
the comic code says it's gotta be. Captain
America makes a cameo appearance and
kicks the innards outta some drug-crazed
fool who thinks his manhood is a
high-tensioned wire. It's a great story and
the book is definitely one you should have
in your collection, even if it is a little old.

Photojournalism exhibit shows
clear window of past realities
by Bob Muffoletto
Spectrum Arts Critic

Our existence is a cubical house and our sensory
perceptions are only windows to the world. The vehicles
which determine our understanding of the human
experience are strongly directed by a few individuals.

Our insight to the ancient Greeks is through their art,
literature, and physical remains. What Renaissance man
was, is what he left us to see. By no means is that what he
really was. What does exist are abstract realities and
emotional myths about a romantic past.
Our knowledge of the present is guided by peering
through our cleanest window
the news media. The
oldest assimilator of the now is the mosaic pattern of the
newspaper. Only in thy last 40 years, with the rapid
development of the printing process and photo
reproduction by use of the half-tone, have news photos
had an influence on our daily lives. (Evidence of half tone
reproduction goes back to Goya, who made prints by relief
half-tones.) In 1880, a New York newspaper ran the first
cross line half-tone in a dpily newspaper.
—

Subjectivity

As a writer can only describe the event within his own
photographer presents the event: out of

syntax, so the

context, ambiguous, and formalized. From The Picture
Press is a current exhibition at the Albright-Knox Art
Gallery, edited by John Szarkowski and circulated by the
Museum of Modern Art, New York. The exhibition and
accompanying book explores the news photograph in the
context of “a chapter in the history of visual
communications
a phenomenon of importance in the
development of the visual vocabulary of the past
—

half-century."
It points to a difference between early documentation
and its style, and that appearing after the second decade of
the 1900’s. Szarkowski points out; "They were, or
seemed, unimpeachably frank; they revised prior standards
of privacy, and the privileges of anonymity; they dealt not

with the intellectual significance of facts, but with their
emotional content; they directed journalism toward a
subjective and intensely human focus." Contained within
the framework of the images are classifications of cultural
roles: good guys, bad guys, winners (everybody likes to see
a winner), losers, dissenters, and even (believe it or not)
good news.
'

,

Shocking news
Before they are news, the photographs are images.
Szarkowski leads us to the water by stating in his book
From the Picture Press, which accompanies the exhibit,
"As images, the photographs are shockingly direct, and at

the same time mysterious, elliptical and fragmentary,
reproducing the texture and the flavor of experience
without explaining its meaning."
The exhibition should not be missed. Images-are taken
from the media (which are objects that we are exposed to
everyday). These then become our reference point to a
reality that we may know little about. The photographs
are contextually ambiguous, formalized and elliptical.
Their ambiguity forces the observer to give meaning to the
images. Only the visual information is supplied.
The caption gives a definite meaning to the image. For
your own experience, try looking at a news photo without
reading the caption and see what happens. Was the woman
a crying victim, captured wrongdoer, or suffering from
hay fever?
The formalized picture press is limited by its tools.
The camera and lighting have a direct effect on what is
displayed within the boundaries of the rectangle. Most
news coverage is set up in advance. Great pains are taken
to set the stage for the press. The limits of the speed
graphic and flash were more formalized than those of the
35mm. and video camera of today.
The idea of being elliptical pertains to a circle. The
photograph of a beauty queen is always the same; only the

face differs. What ever makes the news has made it before;
just the images are different. Take 100 high school
yearbooks; they're all the same, just the people are
different. And in that ideation the images are transparent
and the event itself is universal.
If you are concerned with the visual dialogue, you are
then confronted with the question of your understanding
and relationship to the work. Your response, emotional or
intellectual, is but a reflection of yourself.

Two teachers weep at the Hotel Washington early yesterday morning after the United
Federation of Teachers decided to obey a court writ and order strikers back to the
classrooms. New York Daily News April 13,1962.

Fireman Michael Maye attempts to revive Cynthia Alvarado, 2 months,
after the and her brother, 2, lost consciousness in a fire in their home.
Both children died despite valiant prolonged efforts by a team of

�Claire Ball exhibits
serial photography
and Xerox images
are ninety-one similarly produced,
temporarily related frames along the walls or Gallery
219. Actually, there are six serial works push-pinned
to Gallery 219 walls, where the person "Ken"
appears on most of the frames (competing) with a
Coca-Cola serial work, that has been stretched along
the Gallery's East Wall.
The reason behind this is photographer Claire
Ball's interest in serial images which she produces by
means of serial photography and the Xerox process,
which are both reproduction processes. Rather than
only solving the technical and aesthetic problems
inherent in th6 single image in photography, she
consistently works with the problem of time...Each
of her frames (in one work there are 104 frames)
relates to the one before it and the one following it.
Her time concept in serial photography has been
extended to the production of serial images utilizing
the Xerox Process.

There

Xerox art
The particular Xerox machine she uses, she said,
projects the moving image (from 35mm or 16mm
film), onto an electrically charged moving drum, that
has been created with thermal plastic particles of the
opposite charge. These particles are heated and fused
onto paper (which is the opposite charge of the
particles) that is moving over the drum. Other types
of Xerox machines are able to infuse images on
acetate and cloth and enlarge it up to at least sixty
inches, Ms. Ball reported.
Ms. Ball likes the early works of Andy Warhol as
well as the movies Eat, and Kiss. Another artist
whose works she enjoys is the filmaker Michael
Snow. The movie Wavelength by Snow, takes the
viewer through the space of the room to a
photograph on the wall with a constant, slow zoom
action.
Her photographs also capture this zoom action.
From the inside of a van she photographs a figure
that is slow!

these sequential images onto one long sheet of paper
by the Xerox machine.
Time and photography
A work which Ms. Ball feels is particularly
representativeof her experiments in serial
photography is "Untitled No. 1". The photograph is
composed from thirty-six frames which were cut
into strips of six each and were made into a contact
print. The subject matter is the relationship between
time and picture taking. The entire picture was taken
in three minutes with a five second interval between
each shot. Each frame contains a darkroom timer
and Ms. Ball taking a picture of the movement
through time in a mirror.
Also exhibied is a series of slides of "Ken"
jumping and a movie of Ms. Ball standing and
turning and taking a movie of Ken walking around
her. The most important aspect of the movie is the
structural similarity between the parts. Ms. Ball said:
"There is an isomorphic relationship between the
movement of the subject being filmed, the
movement of the camera while filming, the physical
structure of the film [that is, a film loop], and the
movement of the film during projection."
Claire Ball graduated from UB in 1972 and is
now working towards a MAH degree concentrating
on Media Studies. This is her first one-woman show.
Previously, she has worked in the Whitney
Independent Study Program..
The Gallery 219 exhibit points out a
relationship between technology and art. It
demonstrates that technology which is being used
for the purpose of reproduction of images, mass
communication and the processing of information of
reproduction of images, mass communication and
the processing of information can be originally
applied to art forms.

Two minutes into the movie

two injured, and the mind

of

Do yourself a favor; stick around
for the entire movie. Charley

Charley Varrick is a small-time
bank robber, content with the
little robberies to sustain himself
and his wife. This one day,
Charley
(Walter
however,
Matthau), while trying to mind his
own business, comes up with a fat
heist of over $750,000 from a
small town bank that had no
business having that kind of
money. Charley is no‘'fool; he
reasons that it's Mafia money and
now he has to dodge the Mafia to
save his own skin.

whose facial
expressions dramatize his style as
well as his speech. In the film
Matthau is clever, romantic,
funny, sad, serious, and he does it
all well.
Joe Don Baker, who despite a
very moving performance was not
celebrated, for his role as Sheriff
Buford Pusser in Walking Tall,
plays the part of Molly, the Mafia
hit man. With his cowboy hat and
John Wayne frame, Molly tracks
murdering
Varrick,
down
Charley's partner on the way,
with a smile forever planted on his
face. Molly is your typical
American hit man; big strong,
dumb, and sadistic, abounding
with joy everytime he breaks
someone's neck or pokes his eyes
out. He's a million laughs at
cocktail parties.

Easy Come

No time for popcorn
The movie progresses nicely.
There are no lapses or "popcorn
breaks" during the movie. It's a
continual guessing game. Will they
get Charlie? Oh, they’ve got him
now! This is one of those
s i t -o n -t h e -edge-of-your-seat-type
films.
The film is a bit unrealistic, but
fantasizing is often beneficial. My
last American hero was shot
through the head some ten years
ago in Dallas, Texas. Since then,
the American Dream has gone
from bad to joke to absurd.

Producer-director Don Siegel
deserves applause for this film. His
usage of setting is quite unique.
Instead of the typical night-life,

chooses open spaces and broad
daylight to carry out this
underworld chase.

For all those who don't know already,
Judy Collins is going to appear at Kleinhans

Music Hall tomorrow night, Dec. 8. Judy has
been around for close to a decade, but it is
unlikely her voice will be any worse for it, as
she is one .of the sweetest, fullest singers
around today, and there are plenty to choose
from. But Judy Collins is something special,
an old folky who moved over to
electric-folk-rock after Dylan made everybody
do it. and her sound improved about ten
times as a result.
As fotksinger, she (earned to play guitar
pretty nicely, not Jimmy Page, obviously, but
not Segoyia either. Somewhere in the middle.
•

perhaps. Her back-up band it always first rate.
When she had just gotten started, Steve Stills
was the guitarist at her gigs. Chances are the
show will make you feel pretty damn good,
sittin' in the middle of this beautiful vocal
sound. If you really don't know who the is.
then you probably don't know who Joan
Baez is or even that John Lennon and Paul
McCartney once played in the same band
(God rest their souls).
But if you know her, there's no need to
go into intricate detail. Judy Collins
tomorrow night, Dec. 8. You can't miss, I

The Eye of the Lens by Langdon Jones (Collier Books, N.YJ $1.25
peperbeck, also evailafale in hardcover $6.96
not jus* the shape, but
If one could see what one is looking at
everything about an object, one would possess the sight of a lens* eye.
A lens is objective in its act of viewing and draws out all details
meticulously. Worlds can be reduced to machine movement where the
slight turn o.' a gear producing the sudden fury of hurricane motions
are all seen, all heard, all felt by the staring camera. Silently, emotions
are swallowed up by a living tongue of film, digested and then stored.
The system cannot be stopped once it is begun; even when the film
runs out, the camera stares, merely unable to store what it sees. Though
often it sees only the darkness beneath a Ians cover, space and time are
never lost to its view. Broken, ground to a fine powder and scattered,
the individual molecules represent the ever watchful eye of time.
Cameras are directed the objects they view are decided for them.
They see all aspects of the things they are shown, they always see time
and space. The hand of Langdon Jones does little directing and instead
allows the cosmos to pass before the camera with its own ponderous
trudging steps. Jones' virtue is that he does not direct, he allows the
camera to view the time and space between events as well as the actual
occurences. The universe is vast and to view its entirety necessitates this
inclusion of apparent emptiness.
In order to view a time one needs to have a new time from which
to stand. This, in respect to the first time, makes the viewer atemporal;
a starchild in all the infinite extensions of 2001. The next higher
species of man may well be humans embellished with this sort of
insight for it combines the idea of All-Self with Non-Self and does not
create Nothingness. Langdon Jones was, certainly, a next-higher species
of writer.

Was?

Doesn't sound logical, does ft? There is really nothing wrong with
the statement. Since Jones is not a prolific writer this book contains
stories from 1965 to 1969, many of which appeared in the magazine
New Worlds except in countries where it was banned.
The years 1965 to 1969 just happen to be in the past. The five
stories found in this book were written then by an author who was a
very strong competitor, struggling on the highest rung of the
evolutionary scale. Unfortunately, several masked marvels swooped
down and Jones was essentially forgotten. It was only months later,
after everyone rushed out and paid exhorfoitant prices for the marvels'
books that their masks fell off and the top rung was vacant. So Jones'
stories have been republished and, while they do not represent all of his
work, they are a fine example.
They are on time; however late, they discuss time with crystalline
beauty, yet the book is really not a discussion. It merely presents
images, the reader does all the talking while the author watches.
To recount any of the stories would defeat t$»e very basis of the
book because that would necessitate subjectivity and a selection of the
details to be mentioned. Let it suffice to say the stories all concern
in
time as a system of measure, as an occasion or repeated
the sense of a sentence like "this has happened many times", as being
ahead or behind it, as something to be gained or lost, to be shared as
one shares computer time
The lens views machines and people on an equal level without
giving them humanoid characteristics. From this, the reader is forced to
create things, ideas, opinions and emotions. Soon, he finds this form of
creation amazingly easy. Page upon page of meticulous scenes of
mechanized movement are not as boring as expected. Indeed, they
literally become, marvels of creation.
Jones does not "write." He sees.
Machines know no time and this is where Jones ties it to humans,
concentrating on the human orgasm as a brief period of "timetessoess".
This is also why he was banned. Most people are criticized for their
inability to see connections, Jones was criticized for the opposite.
Utilizing literary film technique is not the high point of his style.
Jones also includes drawings that overlap or coincide with the sentences
between which they lie. He shows the reader a story concerned with a
composer, throws in some of the music and then proceeds to write a
poem to it, for it, and in time with it.
While all of the stories are over a few years old. the book bilb
Jones as one of the "New Wave" science fiction writers. This b not a
misnomer, at least not in the sense of time. The term “New Wave"
refers to experimental science fiction or anything that doesn't fit the
categories of the dissected science fiction; fantasy, hard SF. soft SF.
etc. Anything that was ever banned and may be looked down upon by
the science fiction literary audience seems to fall into thb "new”’
classification, although it has nothing to do with being new.
Bruce Franklin, on campus November fifth, lecturing on "Politics
and Science Fiction", said New Wave authors do not know what they
are writing about. However, Jones and others wrote science fiction,
something which often discusses the unknowable and which the most
famous science fiction writers have been unable to satisfactorily define.

Waring; and a Mini-Festival of Classic Plays, directed
by Don Sanders.
In addition, Steve Adler hopes to direct a
production of Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot in
Harriman sometime in late January. The play will be
co-sponsored by the Student Theater Guild, which is
tentatively set to co-sponsor two other presentations
with the Theater Department next term.

While most of us are at the point of wishing the
vacation would start, the Theater Department is
presenting two cast productions for the almost
expired fall semester. The first, a play by John
Webster called The White Devi/, will be staged by the
Center For Theatre Research and directed by
Gordon Rogoff. It will be at The Courtyard Theater
December 5-8 and 11-15. The play is a Jacobean
tragedy written in the early 17th century.
James Waring will be choreographing two new
ballets for the second production, Nightpiece, with
music by Frederic Chopin, and Eternity Bounce,
which features ragtime music by various composers.
It will be in Harriman Library Studio Theater,
December 6-9 and 13-16.
The White DeviI is a major effort by the Theater
Department to professionalize, explained Steve
Adler, production coordinator for the Center for
Theater Research and the Department. The play will
feature three faculty members Saul Elkin, Beverly
as well as five
Wideman, and Morton Lichter
University graduates who are currently working as
fellows of the Center for Theater Research.

On the move
"In two years, the Theater Department has
come a long way," Mr. Adler said. 'The faculty has
doubled, and the theater production schedule has
tripled. The Center for Theater Research offers more
opportunity for the people in the Department as
well as bringing in good outside people."
Mr. Adler thinks the Theater Department is in
the process of taking on a more professional
direction, although academics will still be stressed.
"Graduates of the Department will be getting a BA.,
which will be the equivalent of a B.FA. as far as
training and theater experience," he said.

listening to the Jazz Crusader s new album.
Sounds funky. So funky, in fact, that the
first song came and went and it seemed like
the intro hadn't even ended, but that's how
it goes with these tight modern-day
arrangements. The title of the album is
important so you'll know not to buy it if
you see it, though I've heard only two
songs now and I'm presuming of course
that you wouldn't buy Issac Hayes either,
so the title is Unsung Heroes.
It should be pointed out that there are
no vocals, so there is the essence of a pun
somewhere between UN and Sung. We all
know that heroes die sloppily. It's electric
and funky and is good background music
to not listen closely to, but wait
there is

seem so familiar? The second side is like
the first and I have no desire to get into it,
just makes me hungry. More water, suh.
Joe Sample used to play for the Jets, and
Wayne Henderson is Joe Shorter's brother.
No offense. This second side marks the
return to serious listening, an exercise in
control. They're good. They don't create,
but they play really well, and suppose
this is where Billy Cobham learned to play

"Georgia," but he ain't raunchy enough,

incredible energy. This isn't music to get
cerebral over, it's more like situation
music, but in the same way so is Trane. I
mean, Leroy, and I don't mean Leroy
Blades who I met two, three, four, maybe
five years ago at the Welfare Center, wotta

what I got from him is to ball to Trane, so
that's situation music too. But think again
there's no talking gonna be going on, and
you NEVER talk when Trane Is on.
In a way. I’m reminded of Funk, INC.,
but the Crusaders don't have a southern
fried sound at all. Still, it must be such a
trip to play in that band, like a soul band
with sax, ielectric piano, trombone for horn

everything?
On other cuts, Trane survives and
sounds good n' thick like he used to, even
though this was before then, but he also
gives the blues too. And Miles playing out

I
he's so skinny and young, what
in? 1955! Holy cow! Bird was still the king
and Miles sounds so little and hung up, so
cool but he really didn't want to be, he
wanted to be a bopper, like Mick dagger
always wanted to be a Beatle, but he
couldn't cut it. Bird just felt sorry for him,
so he tried to act cool to protect his
ego-sized peanut and wore shades and
didn't look at anybody in the eyes like he's
so cool he don't even have to look to know
they're there. But he was too sensitive and
too afraid to play with human emotion, so
he went and started a different attitude,
the birth of the coo/ stemming from peer
rejection, and tried to hide the fact that he
was human and had feelings, but he
couldn't. And so everyone was overawed at
his emotional power through his attempts
to hide exactly that, so he got rich and
famous and bought a fancy car.
Then he went out and bought Coltrane
and later he went and bought Cannonball
and Bill Evans and Red and Paul Chambers
and Philly Joe and later even Wayne
Shorter and Herbie and Tony Williams and
Ron Carter, but it was cool because Miles
was hip after all.
What can you say about Miles Davis that
hasn't been said already? Handsome? Yes,
very. Excellent shape for a forty-year-old.

The changes. Coltrane was so little then,
'55, jes a keed. Trane! He sounds so, soo,
so, like it's so obvious he's getting an
education. Third cut, "Sweet Sue Just
You," and he gets a solo, and gee he's
working so hard to make all the notes right
even though he sometimes puts them
together like wow you know, but he's
struggling all the same like Miles in 1943
(how's he get out of the army?). So
struggle on and on, and halfway into his
solo, with short bursts which don't sound
exactly right, he gets a little groove, then
FLU Bill he missed and then, barely
audible, comes a little tiny groan
'OOOOOOHHHHHHH' and it's Trane
because he missed and he's frustrated, and
I swear it's there. It took about ten
listenings to catch it, but it's there and in
all the discographia of the Masters there
has never been anything like it, not even on
all the out-takes of Miles with Bird when

song called I am the Sea," which is the'sound of the sea
crashing against the shore as the four main themes are
introduced.
As the waves die down Roger Faltrey sings under
them: Can you see the real me, can you? Can you?
This explodes into 'The Real Me," a real rocker
which is as authoritative as any hard-rock song of the last
decade. Lyrically, Jimmy is recalling his lack .of success
with psychiatrists, preachers and his parents in his attempt
to communicate to them his real self.
This segs into the title track, "Quadrophenia" which
is the overture of the album. Beginning with "Bell Boy,"
the theme centered around drummer Keith Moon, the
group progresses through piano progressions with
Townshend occasionally flicking out some tasty licks.
Then, almost majestically, a resounding note on the
mellotron with Townshend plucking out the "Is it Me?"
theme. This theme, giving the listener the first taste of
elegance contained on the album, centers around bassist
John Entwistle and represent the romantic aspects of

Quadrophenia Pater Townthend (Track Music)

"

After four long years, Peter Townshend has finally
found a focus for his creative genius; the result being the
musical triumph called Quadrophenia.
This new double-album by the Who transcends the
group's earlier works, overshoadowing even Tommy as an
overall expression of art.
Whereas Tommy, the deaf, dumb and blind pinball
wizard, was basically unidentifiable to the general listener,
Quadrophenia is based around the characteristics of an
English teen, named Jimmy, during the Mod/Rocker days
of the mid-sixties.
Remember the Mods and Rockers? The Mods were
the ones who hung round the soda shops, dressed casual
but sharp, and packed ballrooms to dance the night away.
The Rockers were the coffee-house types, leather clad with
dark turtle-neck sweaters,- usually feared by the Mods

was too much.
He steals a boat and heads out towards a great rock,
getting off on the thunder in the distance and the drone of

Jimmy.

Homs follow, going into the "Helpless Dancer"
theme, a steady, driving melody characterizing the tough
guy aspect of Jimmy's character, this being reflected by
Roger Daltrey.

A slow piano into and then the mellotron breaks
into a dynamic violin oscillation, backing the "Love, Teign
O'er Me" theme which is Peter Townshend's.
The song ends with the sound of the sea and it is
amazing how far you have gone in such a short amount of
time. I mean, it's only the middle of side one.
Townshend comes out on vocals for "Cut My Hair,"
assisted by Daltrey on the choruses. Here Jimmy is
rationalizing his actions as a Mod:
Why should care
If I got to cut my hair?
I've got to move with the fashion
Or be outcast.
Move with the fashion he does, but he begins to doubt his

•'^5^E888BS2a5i8^EBS8Bpi*3
?’

(unless overwhelmingly outnumbered).
Jimmy is a Mod living in that era and Quadrophenia
attempts to weave his character around four main themes,
each theme representing a part of Jimmy's character, each
character part reflected by a member of the Who.
Through the use of photographic essays and an
autobiographical narrative on the inside cover, we glance
into Jimmy's life. He is at the point where everything is
depressing him faster than his supply of leapers can avert.
His parents had let him down, rock had let him down,
women had let him down, work wasn't worth the effort,
and school, he felt, wasn't even worth mentioning. And
now, even being a Mod was getting to him. The struggle

Side three opens with "5:15" the song with the most
Who-ist arrangement. Belted out vocal harmonies by
Townshend and Entwistle compliment Daltrey's lead. In
this song, Jimmy question his concern over his own
generation.

other actions

Zoot suit, white jacket with side vents
Five inches long
I'm out on the street again
And I’m leaping along.
I'm dressed right for a beachfight
But I just can't explain
Why that uncertain feeling is still
Here in my brain.
The song closes with a radio
broadcast concerning a mob of Mods chasing two Rockers,
'The Punk Meets the Godfather" is another hard
rocker. It's supposedly a mini-opera in itself. Townshend
realizes that much of the material on this album is suitable
for a live concert, so he accentuates his driving guitar
chords and makes the song more exciting by overdubbing
enthusiastic applause to simulate the live concert
the engine (aided, a bit, by the Gilbey's gin he has been
drinking on top of the leapers).
When he stops the engine and climbs onto the rock,
the heavenly music ceases and he experiences a great
come-down. The boat has drifted away, it's raining very
hard and he realizes why he has come to the rock.
His life is flashing before his eyes. Only it isn't
flashing, it’s crawling. Slowly.
This, then, is the essence of Quadrophenia. To
capture musically and lyrically these last minutes of
Jimmy's life.
Appropriately enough, Quadrophenia starts with a

Side tWo continues the song cycle with Townshend
vocalizing "I'm One," a song that uses lyrical ambiguity
against the theme of the whole.album. Can a schizophrenic
no, not simply schizophrenic, but a quadrophrenic state
so boldy that not only is he one but he is the one.
Roger's theme, "Helpless Dancer" vocalizes Jimmy's
drifting away from the mod scene and the dance halls as
his observations of his society cause him tagrow more and
-

more irate.
"I've Had Enough" reiterates and reinforces Jimmy's
break from his lifestyle';

"Sea and Sand" recalls the time he slept on the
beach with the girl he loved, only to see her later
arm-in-arm with a friend of his.
Keith's theme, "Bell Boy" featuring Keith Moon
himself on vocals, concerns and lunatic bell boy Jimmy
'used to follow back in '63" in "those crazy days."
"Dr. Jimmy" opens the final side. For
eight-and-a-half minutes we see the interchange of the
"tough guy" and the romantic, each struggling to break
loose.
This brings everything back to the present upon
"The Rock" where the four themes are again heard for a
brief climactic moment. The quiet sound of the sea
follows, opening the finale "Love, Reign O'er Me" (Pete's
Theme). This is Jimmy's finale and Daltrey sings his heart
out. The simple lyrics are backed with the
now-recognizable, mellotronically-produced violin
segment. The song progresses to a crashing ending with
Daltrey screaming: and then
silence. That's how the
album ends, and if that isn't enough, as you read along
with the lyrics, opposite the words on the last page is a
photo of the rock out in the water with Jimmy standing
just at the shoreline. A natural turn of the page as the
album ends and we see the same scene sans Jimmy. Just
the rock.
Quadrophenicaa is the culmination of ideas that Pete
Townshend created. "O'reilly, My generation," and "We
Won't Get Fooled Again" could easily have fit into the
mood of Quadrophenia. But the quality of the songs on
this long-awaited album has left me with the notion that
this could definitely be considered a real classic. It is
certainly one of the most enjoyable albums to come out in
a long while. The Who have made up for their 26-month
silence (discounting solo efforts); this new album is a true
tribute to rock music.

�Memphis Group The Mg's (Stax)
Booker T. and the Mg's might've been the best house
band ever conceived for any rock emporium. They
specialized in an infectious brand of tight, highly
structured funky-musak. Their instrumental renditions of
things like "Abbey Road" and "Hello Mrs. Robinson,"
combined with their original sounds "Hip-Hugger,""Green
Onions," etc. made them one of the slickest pieces of
organized musical talent ever presented
at least for
awhile, that is. Eventually everyone else caught up with
'em, but none of them had that special magic that Booker
T. and the boys had. With thrf combined musical moxey of
one of the finest Fender players ever, now
Steve Cooper
just a was-been; Donald "Duck" Dunn on bass, Al Jackson
and what drums, perfect pitch and
Jr. on drums
exquisite style, you could never get bored listening to him.

they swim thdt cold AtlanfTe Oceah They geT eaten aflve
like so much shark bait
This Ip, which was recorded in flash time, was
rush-released by the Warners' people, and they even tried
one more time to get a hit single off it, this time it was a
looney toon called "My Friend Stan." A good lip sheer mit
salt 'n vinegar an de hole wurks, but it just lays there like a
limp wrist waiting to get caressed by sum noticing
passerby.
Sladest is a compendium of Slade singles which never
made the do here in Amerika. The whole shebang-do-wah
gets underway
unsequentially, of course with a "live"
studio version of "Get Down and Get With It," a song
which has been known on occasion to have immobile
objects like bolted-down seats, necks, and wabbly three- to
twelve-inch stacks, lobbied like so many ancient towers fo
Babylon. Sweaty, blurring visions of sexual arousal an'
simple rock fuck. An interesting thing to take note of is
the fact that this song is the only one that is given the
correct spelling. (Spelling being important because it is so
fastidiously hammered into American teenhood.) Maybe
that's why they can't make it in the States, we're all too
spelling-conscious. Like wasn't it everyone's high school
dream, besides losing your sexual innocence, to win the
spelling bee in front of the whole school literary orgasm.
So why not a national teacher's conspiracy to stop all this
misspelling malarky by a bunch'a mutant limy boys? Why
not? It could be the answer everyone is searching out.
And it's produced by ex-Animal Chas Chandler he
the dude what discovered Jimi Hendrix for all you history
festishoids out there in the print void. First of all, he
discovered these boys with their skin heads and tight blue
jeans wailing away in a local pub, olaying that infectious,
driving bar noize so commonly needed when you're on a
Lost Weekender. He recorded them on an Ip called Play It
Loud and you should, especially when they do "Shapes
of Things to Come," which was first punched out in the
bbb-bad/good movie Wild in the Streets 'member it was
done right after everyone got wiped out in front of the
White House, Max comes on the screen looking like a
cross-bred test tube.terror combination of Marlon Brando
and Johnny Ray

now he's busy producing people like Al Green nice work
if you can get it; and last, but never least, was good old
Booker Green Onions hisself Tee on the organ. Now
Booker is bogged down in silencing Pricilla's boogie, which
means he's only playing self-complacent organ, which is
just jive, just pick up on Booker T's and Pricilla's
Chronicles Ip, which has Dylan guest hosting on Ijp organ.
Yeech, these boys should've gone far.
So that was de hip-huggers themselves. Alas, or all-ass,
the Mg's split asunder like most good groups that never go
anywhere. But, hold on, what's this, yup, another Mg's Ip,
this time minus the Crooper, Booker T. talents of old. My
hopes were initially high, like the rest of my well-worn
psyche, when this record was first thrown at me in my
crystal-isolation cage. Then I made one important mistake.
I played it. They haven't been able to calm me down sinze.
I've attacked myself twice, and eaten at least half the
record
sheer rage, then I realized in a flash of yawn-out
that I should just fall asleep again like usual. No way is this
record really any good. Like it says on the back cover,
"Left Over" (Bucafamanga)
whatever that means. Lean
pickings from a once-great influence. Floatsom in the
maelstrom of messy-messy. A shell vision conch-out.
Rating: who cares?

So for awhile Dave, Noddy,

Jim and company

shrugged their muscular shoulders and went back into the
pit of pubs. Then they went and did "Stayed" with a
continued reference being made to the cinema of America

HHllC dWwwlments are "Cum on FeeFthe Noize"
the
tender truth' about how your ears really feel when you
play muse-ikk in a rock 'n roll band. The battle cry for the
deaf hoipoloi out there in the audience where the entire
concept of music transcends traditional conceptions and
takes on a new, more sinister meaning. The age of sonic
dehydration is here to stay. Then another venture into
self-imposed illiteracy called "Skweeze Me Pleeze Me"
I'm beginning to think all limies are funny spellers. This
again is a musical dip into septic tank visions of mechanical
car fuck. What do you get when you cross a 1957 Chevy
being, being, do-wah-ohhh come on
with a 1973 Mazda
skweeze me tailpipe and I'M grease your axle. Ho-hum.
"Mama Weer All Crazee Now" depicts the ontologies
onerousness prevalent in this continuing melange of
cross-cut images we call life
what's life? It's a fucking
game that you can buy for about ten bucks, but it ain't as
good as Monopoly or Stanley Cup Hockey, so go screw a
West Indian Mind Rat, ya turd.
"My Friend Stan" has a lot of local appeal 'cause it
should've been used as the campaign song for Stan "de
man" Makowski, it would've been nice to hear some
acknowledgement of our music from the upper echelons of
local government. I'm sure Stan teh Man has heard of the
Carpenters, so why not Dave Hill from Slade, they're all
androids anywhohow.
I don't know, I guess the only thing that'll make it
possible for Slade to make it in the States is if they repeal
the 1 **w which made it legal to suck booze again. With that
kiriv of nationwide dryness, maybe a little rock 'n roll cum
juice might make a little sense
huh.

Mystery to Me Fleetwood Mac (Warner Bros.)

This is unmistakably one of the nicest records I'Ve
heard in a long, long while. No, that sounds too mundane
untrue to form, as it were. Let's see
let's try it again:
Unquestionably, this record is the solidity in a monstrous,
even occasionally depressing, sea of rock n' diarrhea the
quintessential differentiation aftermath of congenital
constipation as opposed to pre-birthday apathy
huh
Screamin' Jay Hawkins, besides being the genius who
wrote "You Put a -Spell on Me," was also the penman on a
song dedicated to the rigors and disillusionment of
constipation called "Constipation Blues," and it was about
the first time in his life that he couldn't pooh-pooh when
he wanted to, it upset him so much he wrote a song about
it, it was banned in the States for a long time, but you
could probably pick up on it at your local drug store
anytime. It's a great toon which predates all that Robert
Downey sittin'-on-the-shitter imagery seen in his infamous
cineoid climax called "Cahffed Cheeks," or was that
"Chaffed Knees," or was it "The Heartbreak of Psoriasis in
the Lower Physiogymy Of the West Indian Dwarf Flea"
What's more, Christine McVie is one of the best
femrockers in the business, bar none, not even Wayne
County can hold a snatch to her, and the reason for her
success is the fact that she is able to transcend the
over abundant sense of manhood most femrockers are
forced to adopt in order to make it in the male-conceived
rock n' roll structure. Christine maintains an overriding
sense of delicate femininity, despite the constant pressures
of being in an all-male group (all-male, that is, besides
herself). She's the best rawkin' bitch goin' and I'd
well,
I would if I could but I can't so's I’d might as well rant and
pant about, after all it would be unfair if I were to deny
my own sexual imbalance, now wouldn't it?
Fleetwood Mac has always been one of the most
consistently enigmatic groups around. Throughout their
history they've been solid hard-core musicians in the way
that only the British can raise hard-core musicians.
Ignoring, or better yet supplementing, the awe most white
musicians feel for the classically-oriented black blues
idiom, Fleetwood Mac did more for the white bri-teesh
bluze than any other group. They paved the wave for all

Nobody really knows why Slade hasn't hit it big here
in the States yet. They've got the hype; they even switched
from Polydor to Warners', which has the most efficient
hype machine ever conceived, and still they can't seem to
break that line and run for the touchdown they so
obviously deserve. It's a shame 'cause they play rock 'n roll
like there's no tomorrow, and we all know there isn't.

Tonight and tomorrow night,
coffeehouse will be presenting a fine example
of a country person educated and living in the
city, retaining her deep respect for the songs
she learned from family tradition. Hedy West
was bom and raised in Georgia, her family
being mill workers, and before that small-time
farmers. Hedy's father, Don West, is a
well-known poet, author, and commentator
on the Appalachian people. Hedy learned
songs that her ancestors brought from the
British Isles to the Southern Mountains, as
well as some of the union organizing songs her
father was living and experiencing first-hand.
Although Hedy attended Columbia
University, and has lived in England for a
time, she's been traveling to many places with
her music. She has retained the authentic
sounds and songs of the rural folk that she
knew as a young woman. During the 1960's,
she was an active part of the so-called folk
revival scene, with two albums on Vanguard.
Since then she has published a book of her
song material. The Hedy West Songbook, and
recorded for some small record labels devoted
to traditional types of music. Ms. West brings
to Buffalo a unique type of music, without
the "Hee Haw" hillbilly redneck entrapments.
Hedy renders the old songs in performances
and brings them to modern urban audience.
Her songs include the well known "Old Joe
Clark," "Gambling Man," and songs from her
father like "Shut Up In the Mines at Coal
Creek."
Enhancing the evening's entertainment
will be two local talents, Eric Levine and Al
Shank. There will be one performance at 9
p.m. Tickets are on sale at the Norton ticket
office.

Q: I live off campus in

an apartment.

Where can I obtain

personal property insurance?
A: Applications for personal property coverage are available in
the Off-Campus Housing Office on the first floor in Goodyear Hall.
This insurance is written through a national organization. However,
many insurance companies offer tenant insurance policies. We suggest
that you investigate alternative policies. When deciding upon an
insurance policy, be sure to understand the amount of coverage
available, the items and risks which are not covered in the policy,

under your coverage how much is deductible, and whether

You have two years to remove the incomplete. After two

Q: I am scheduled for three exams on one day. Is there any way
to change one of the exams to another day?
A: The Division of Undergraduate Studies agrees that it is not
desirable for a student to take more than two exams on any given
day and encourages faculty to be flexible in resolving such conflicts.
Therefore, first check with the professors in the courses involved to
see if one of the exams can be rescheduled. If the problem cannot be
resolved after discussi the matter with your professors, contact the
Chairman of the departments or the directors of undergraduate
studies within the departments and explain your problem. As a last
resort, if the matter has not been resolved, contact Dr. Ebert, the
Dean of the Division of Undergraduate Studies.

and the underground books. So, I think
the underground press is losing its
difference. The only thing that made it
viable was its difference, and now with
the obscenity laws and everything else,
there is really nothing to separate them

"Yes. I think it's sensational. As a
matter of fact, I think we're in a
transitional phase. What you're really
seeing is the end of mass marketing. It
was possible at one time for 30
publishers of comic books to mindlessly
turn out anything they wanted to, and
have it sell. It was never questioned.
They used to sell 70 to 90% of what
they put out. They used to have a
monthly sale of 360 million magazines.
Now, they have an annual sale of that
number. They're selling one twelfth of
what they used to sell. But now that the
comic book form has been accepted, for
instance. Marvel has magazines that sell
and don't sell. The same people work on
them but obviously the readers are more
selective in what they buy. He won't
support the entire line. As long as they
wouldn't support the entire line and
they're becoming selective, it means that
individual magazines have more value

than a line."
"National is doing real badly, they've
been hurting now for years, and haven't
made any profits because most of their
magazines don't sell. There is a very
strong possibility, that an outfit like
National may have to do something
drastic in order to regain its position.
Either they will sell off their characters
or drop out. I think it's really the end
for mass marketing of comics, one:
because newsstands are closing all over
the country, and two: there's no way a
20-cent comic book can make a profit
unless you sell 3/4 of your print order,
and that's not happening, so they're
jumping the price to 50 cents and a
dollar. I don't think people are going to
pay a dollar for what they've bought for
20 cents. At any rate, they are at a point
of crisis now, and its possible for new
people to come in with real value and, I
think, make inroads into the field."
An end to the factory system in the
comic industry and the steady influx of
new talent will be the future for the
comic book, at least that's what Kane
believes, and why not believe what he
says; after all, that is his biz. See ya
'round Halloween at City Hall.

Buffalo’s wrestling Bulls lost
only three matches to a stubborn
team of Colgate wrestlers
Wednesday night. The meet was
somewhat closer than the 31-9
final score would indicate, as five
of the ten matches were decided
by three points or less. The
victory ran the Bulls record to
5-0.
Coach Ed Michael was gratified
with his team’s performance,
under the circumstances. The
Bulls arrived at Colgate’s
Huntington Gymnasium at 7:15
for the 7:30 match. They were
told to be dressed and warmed up
in twenty minutes so that the
match would not start more than

a few minutes late
It appeared that the close
timing would not affect the Bull’s
performance very much, as Ron
Langdon destroyed John
Graziadei 17-6 in the 118 puond
match. However, Langdon’s
performance was a bit sloppy.

Young, Jacoutot hold leads
After that, the Bulls won on a
shoestring for a while. Jim Young,
at 134, held on to an early lead
through an eventful third period
in which 12 points were traded.
Neither Bill Jacoutot nor Youjg
were able to dominate therr
matches as they have in the
previous meets. “It’s the sign of a
good wrestler when you can be
bad and still win,” said Young,
bestowing a backward

How you express yourself
depends upon your camera

compliment on himself and his
buddy.
Ultimately, three pins ided the
meet for Buffalo. Freshman Bruce
Hadsell recorded his fourth pin
and fifth victory at 142 to lead
the team in both categories.
Hadsell had the strength to ride
Colgate’s Jim Webb with a cradle
for over a minute until he could
pin him.
Ed Hamilton (190) had
another fall victory for Buffalo,
his third in as many matches. The
Scrambler’s opponent, Fran
Delaurentis, was in trouble as
soon as Hamilton got the opening
takedown, something Ed rarely
does. “I don’t know what I’m
doing,” said Hamilton. “I got a
takedown in my third match this
year. Last year it took six
matches.” With Ed’s unorthodox
style, getting takedowns is of very
little importance.
Bulls to face Army
Tonight and tomorrow at West
Point, the Bulls will get their best
test of the young season, facing
four tough teams-Army
Princeton, Montclair State (New
Jersey) and Gettysburg. The
team’s flawless record, as well as
the undefeated streaks of Young,
Jacoutot, Hadsell, Hamilton and
190 pounder Charlie Wright will
be seriously challenged.

Today almost everybody is getting into photography.
And it's not the snapshot variety People are doing
sports stories, nature stories, portraits—you may
even have a friend who s doing photographs through
a microscope Or a telescope
You also know that everybody has his own idea
about which camera is best. That s why it's important
for you to know about the Canon F-1. Because it's the
system camera that s fast becoming the favorite of
professionals. And the new status symbol among
photography enthusiasts.

:

smom

:

The whole F-1 system includes over 40 lenses and
200 accessories It s capable of doing virtually
everything in photography So whatever idea you
have for a picture, the F-1 has the equipment to make
sure you get it.
Because it was conceived from the beginning as a
system, it works as a system All the elements are
quickly and easily interchangeable No matter which
lens or accessory you use with the F-1 body you won't
have the feeling that something has been
"tacked on.”
What s more the F-1 is comfortable to handle.
Years of research went into the design of the F-1 body
and placement of controls so your fingers fall
naturally into place. You'll appreciate this comfort
when you're on assignment. It's also an important
thing to keep in mind if you're investing in a camera
you plan to keep a long time.
Canon has been in the optics industry over 37
years. We make microscope equipment, amateur and
professional movie cameras and TV lenses. It's this
experience that helps make our still cameras the best
selling cameras in Japan. In America, it's just a matter
of time.
See your dealer for more information. He'll also
show you Canon s other SLR cameras, like the FTb
and TLb. Both of which offer accurate metering, easy
film loading, a wide range of lenses and the same
standard of engineering that goes into the F-1.

J.V. basketball Bulls

Bulls face Ohio tonight
by Dave Geringer

Hamilton, Ontario had been skating with left wing
Bill Davidge and right wing Dave Ratko earlier this
season.

Sports Editor

Spectrum

...

The hockey Bulls wind up the home portion
of their first semester schedule by hosting powerful
Ohio State tonight and tomorrow night at Twin
Rinks. The Buckeyes, beaten by Bowling Green for
the Central Collegiate Hockey Association’s
championship last season, have left the CCHA this
year and are independent.
Ohio State, which could skate as fast as the
wind last season, has been held to just 3.56 goals
per game by nine opponents. A combination of
injuries, losses due to graduation, ineligibility and a
severe schedule have hurt the Bucks.
Buckeye skipper Gerry Walford agreed that
Ohio State had lost some of its fearsome scoring
power. “We’ve tightened up defensively this
season,” said Walford. “Whether our scoring punch
is there, we don’t know. We’re not panicking,
though. The goals will start to come eventually,”
forecast Walford.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Vol. 24. No. 40

Student Judiciary to handle all
non-academic violations cases
by Larry Kraftowitz
Campus Editor

A unified Student-Wide Judiciary, intended as a
major step toward due process and the advancement of
student rights, was approved for one year last week by

President Robert Ketter.

Beginning next semester, the student court, the first
ever to encompass graduate, undergraduate and night
students, will hear cases involving violations of
non-academic conduct regulations and will have the power
to impose punishments and various “losses of privilege

consistent with the offense committed.”
Unlike its predecessor, a skeleton student judiciary
consisting of five undergraduate representatives, the
Student-Wide Judiciary will be composed of 18 judges
representing the undergraduate, Graduate and Millard
Fillmore College Student Associations. Each case will first
be heard by a panel of three judges, two of them from the
defendant’s constituency. Defendants will be able to
appeal decisions to another three-judge panel, again with
two judges from the defendant's constituency and the
third judge from the constituency excluded at the first
level. Finally, the defendant may appeal to a “Supreme
Court” consisting of the chief judge and a justice from
each of the other two constituencies.
Complete system
“The Student-Wide Judiciary is a complete judicial
system including all three student governments and
providing peer review at the appeal level,” explained Ron
Stein, associate director of Student Affairs and a major
impetus behind the formation of the new student court.
The concept of a Student-Wide Judiciary had its
roots in 1969, when Dr. Stein perceived the need for an
“umbrella” judiciary system to deal with conflicts among
student governments, as well as those between them. After
four years of deliberation with numerous student leaders,
Dr. Stein submitted a final proposal to Preindent Ketter
last May.
After extensive scrutiny by John Leach, attorney for
Dr. Ketter and Walter Rolihan, the State University of
New York (SUNY) Vice Chancellor for Legal Affairs, a

revised resolution was sent back to Dr. Stein
The student governments had originally sought the
right to subpoena any member of the University
community, including faculty, staff and students, and the
right to fine anyone who refused to comply with the

subpoena, according to SA Student Rights Coordinator

Cliff Palefsky. However, a clause was later discovered in
the University’s contract with the Senate Professional
Association which restricted students from hearing
misconduct charges against faculty members.
Charter amended

The Judiciary charter was thus amended so only
students would be compelled to pay fines if they refused
to comply with a subpoena. The fines would be tacked
onto a student’s account in the Bursar’s office so those
failing to pay would be unable to register the following
semester. Although no such fines exist for faculty
members, the Judiciary can enforce faculty subpoenas by
appealing to Dr. Ketter.
Another area of dispute concerned Dr. Stein’s and
the student governments’ insistence that a defendant must
be found guilty “beyond a reasonable doubt.” Although
Mr. Leach strongly recommended that this wording be
changed to read “substantial evidence,” the terminology
was left unchanged at Dr. Stein’s urging. This would give
students te benefit of the doubt, since they were the ones
most often on trial, Mr. Palefsky indicated.

Momentary delay
For the moment, the Judiciary does not have the
authority to impose disciplinary fines because that issue is
still being discussed in Albany. However, Dr. Stein soon
expects to be receiving final authorization from Harry
Spindler, SUNY vice chancellor for Business and Finance.
Once this measure is approved, students would be eligible
for fines of up to $50 for not obeying a subpoena and a
maximum charge of $200, dependsng upon the offense.

However, tlre"JHBIteihry may impose an unlimited fine in
“restitution” cases, or those where there has been a
destruction of property.
Nine of the 18 justices have been elected to for one
year and the remainder for two-year terms. In the fut re

Ron Stein
all judges will receive two-year terms to ensure that three
out of every six judges from a single student government
constituency will be newly-elected every year. “We did this
to keep people of experience and maintain continuity of
the court,” Mr. Palefsky explained.
The chief justice is elected by the 18 judges from
among themselves. In addition to designating the
three-judge panel for every case, he presides over the
Supreme Court, the highest level of appeal.
In approving the Student-Wide judiciary. Dr. Ketter
maintained the revised proposals adequately responded to
“the majority of concerns expressed. I suggest you now
proceed with implementation of the by-laws and
procedures on a provisional one-year basis,” he stated last
week in a letter to Dr. Stein.

Chancellor says no to extended vacations
by Amy Dunk in
and Ian DeWaal
ALBANY Winter vacations will not be extended as
a result of the energy crisis at State University of New
York colleges and universities, according to SUNY
Chancellor Ernest L. Boyer. Dr. Boyer answered questions
from SUNY student newspaper editors and ratio station
news directors at a press conference in Albany last Friday,
organized to improve communications between the central
administration and SUNY student media.
However, Dr. Boyer will allow individual campuses
to either revise their calendars or lengthen intercessions as
dictated by local energy shortages. Additionally, each
campus has been directed to institute specific
energy-saving measures to reduce usage 10 to IS per cent,
including
lowering
of building temperatures and
extinguishing unnecessary lights.
These immediate steps should not cause any real
hardships, said Dr. Boyer. If the crisis intensifies, however,
he suggested more severe “Phase II” measures which would
involve altering the statewide calender, rearranging class
schedules and consolidating classes into fewer academic
buildings to conserve heat.

business-oriented research groups such as the Committee
for Economic Development, which recently recommended
that state tuitions be doubled over the next five years.
Students should not be forced to pay more for their
education, the Chancellor feels, emphasizing he is not
contemplating any tuition hike. There is no intention to
increase or decrease tuition for out-of-state students, he
added, although the legitimacy of “two-level tuition” is

*

Apocalypse
Noting that educational institutions will not receive
priority in the event of drastic fuel shortages, Dr. Boyer
said a “Phase HI” would be “apocalyptic.” “We may have
to rethink patterns of education" whereby students
would engage in more off-campus independent learning
projects, he indicated.
The country did not prepare for the energy crisis,
said Dr. Boyer, because “we were told our grandchildren
would freeze and it wouldn’t bother us. We are destined to
wait until problems roll in like waves. I would like to see
the universities get ahead of social problems and look at
options; to become more rational in the business of
survival,” he explained. The SUNY Board of Trustees has
recently been authorized t name a statewide emergency
committee, which will include two student representatives,
to study standby alternatives.
Referring to the possibility of SUNY tuition
increases. Dr. Boyer does not accept the philosophies of

tested in the courts
SUNY is presently conducting studies to increase
financial aid to students. “Our goal is to cover
middle-income students more adequately in scholarship
money,” Dr. Boyer said. He urged full funding of the
federal Basic Opportunity Grants to increase allotments to
$700 per student and make them available to sophomores
and juniors as well as freshmen.
Addressing himself to the arming of Campus
Security officers. Dr. Boyer commented that “statewide
regulations assign to each campus president the right to
determine how firearms are used.” He continued: “We
have worked 4Vi years to develop a security program
consiste t with university goals, and chose to have
employees under the general authorization of the
University rather than own police. By and large, security
officers are not armed.”
Last month two legislative proposals, clarifying the
status of University “peace officers,” were approved by
the SUNY Board of Trustees. ‘The Board redefined and
sharpened the training program. It made explicit that
peace officers may be authorized to carry protection
without risk, stopping short of firearms,” Dr. Boyer
explained. It is necessary to establish intermediate steps
for arming security officers instead of sticking to “all or

currently being

nothing,” he said.

Dollar dilemma
State Universities cannot provide all the health
services that are “reasonable and convenient," Chancellor
Boyer said. Contending there must be an establishment of
priorities, he asked: “If resources are curtailed, where do
we put our dollars?” He supports minimum health care to
cover students in emergencies.
Finally, asked about state support for intercollegiate
sports, Dr. Boyer said: *i played class B basketball until I
failed to grow.” He then added: “We have not been able to
get money from the State specifically identified for
intercollegiate sports.” However, “I would like to see some
moderate support. I have talked to one legislator with a
favorable response. However, it will be a year or two
before we see some results,” he concluded.

long-awaited Student-Wide Judiciary has finally become a
reality. While many students tend to ignore accomplishments
of this type, the establishment of an all-student court where
students accused of non-academic violations can be fairly
tried by their peers is a vital step toward complete student
self-government.
Like the recently-enacted undergraduate grievance
procedure, which provides channels for redress when a
student feels he has been treated unfairly by a faculty
member, the passage of the Student-Wide Judiciary by this
year's Student Association is the culmination of two years of
struggle by former students and past SA's. Ron Stein,
associate director of Student Affairs, must be commended
for his patience and untiring efforts in overcoming two years
of bureaucratic hurdles in both of these important
breakthroughs.

...

—

Students new to this University cannot realize how much
of an improvement the new court is over the Hearing
Commission on Campus Disorder. Established after the 1970
disturbances by the SUNY Board of Trustees, that court,
nicknamed the "Ketter Commission," employed two
administrators and two faculty members (plus two students)
to hear every case of student infraction of State University
rules.
Unfortunately, while most student cases seem to have
been going to the student courts, the Hearing Commission is
no footnote in history: it still exists and it still hears student
cases. While technically, the Student-Wide Judiciary is
designed to try University infractions and the Hearing
Commission State University infractions, the overlap is
obvious. If one student assaults another in the Union, or a
group of students block a faculty member's office in protest,
to which body does the case go? Dr. Ketter or his designee
makes that decision, and the potential for undermining the
Student-Wide Judiciary's effectiveness by bypassing it on
i
importynt cases is distressing. ,
The Hearing Commission is an anachronism. If this
University is truly trying to move out of the era of in loco
parentis (the school legally acting as the student's parent),
.then every student must be treated as an adult and is entitled
to a trial by his peers, not to be judged by faculty and
administration in a blatantly paternalistic court.
is smoothly
Judiciary
Once
the Student-Wide
functioning, we urge that an amendment be presented to the
SUNY Board of Trustees, detailing why the Hearing
Commission is now obsolete and should be abolished. While
that body might once have been justifiable following campus
strife and in the absence of any student court, it is now
neither acceptable nor needed. Students, just like faculty
members or the citizens of this country, are entitled to the
due process of peer review, a fundamental constitutional
right.
The new student court represents an important step
toward complete student self-governance. But it can be
rendered impotent if it can be bypassed at the
Administration's pleasure. The broader issue is whether
students, who pay taxes, can vote and can be drafted, are to
be treated as adults. The students who rioted in 1968—1970
were demanding a stronger voice in determining their own
future. The new student court represents a responsible step
in that direction; it would be- ironic if a reactionary
outgrowth of the 1970 disorders now served to block or
student

diminish
self-government. A court in which administrators and faculty
try students should be relegated to the same fate as dorm
curfews, fraternities and visiting hours.
Once the Student-Wide Judiciary has proven its worth,
the anachronistic Hearing Commission must be abolished,
and with it, the last vestiges of University paternalism toward
students.
Like the grievance procedure, the Student-Wide Judiciary
is likely to go unnoticed until a student is in a predicament
and needs to utilize its services. But when that time comes
for a student accused of an infraction, his fate will not be
determined by either a hostile Buffalo city court or in an
administration/faculty-dominated hearing. Instead, his case
will be fairly considered by his peers in an all-student court.

.

I’d like to comment on one of the “internal
contradictions” in the Extramural Evaluation of the
Colleges which I pointed out at the recent open
meeting of the Faculty Senate Colleges Committee
iss e is;
(The Spectrum, Nov. 16). The question at
Who besides “regular University faculty” is
qualif ed to teach and/or supervise teaching?
On one hand, the Evaluators declare: “The
colleges, much more than the departments, have the
potential to make good use of those who lack
normal academic credentials, but who nonetheless
may have riches to offer.” On the other hand, these
perhaps,
same Evaluators insist (and not surprisingly,
college
since four are full professors, the fifth a
president, and all were commissioned by a
committee of the Faculty Senate): that “University
faculty members teach or directly supervise all
courses,” that the “head” of each College “be a
member of the University faculty,” and that ‘at
be
least three members of the University faculty
involved” in each College. What gives?
Simply, I think, that despite their
acknowledgement that in the case of certain
instructors, “formal credentials would not matter,
the Evaluators have hardly risen above the prejudices
they tend to identify
of their profession
“teachers” with “University faculty.” To such an
extent, indeed, that: 1) the headings “Teacher
Competence” and “Teacher Diversity” appearing in
the version of the Evaluation printed in the
Reporter, were “Faculty Competence” and “Faculty
Diversity” in the original (mimeographed)
publication; 2) according to the Evaluators,
“University regulations require that every

.

“just isn’t true.” (The regulation applies only to
undergraduate instructors, not to graduate students
or people from the community.)
Since in their plan for “transformation” of the
the criteria of faculty
Colleges only those which
involvement mentioned above would be approved,
the Evaluators have as much as said that if no
University faculty member is interested in teaching
or directly supervising a course, it’s not worth
taking, and that if a College can’t find three faculty
members who are willing to be “involved” in it and
one who is willing to “head” it, it isn’t worthy to
exist. What arrogance!
First of all, it is by no means beyond question
that professors know more, even about the subjects
they profess, than anyone else. Second, it is even less
certain that they can teach (or supervise the teaching
of) those subjects better than anyone else. Third, it
is rather unlikely that they are the people best
qualified to “head” colleges where, for instance,
“such seemingly anti-intellectual or non-intellectual
pursuits as work in crafts, studies of purported
parapsychological phenomena, or examination of
mystical experience, can provide a valuable means of
engaging student interest in the application of
critical judgement.” Indeed, it seems to me that the
position of “regular faculty member” would tend
precisely to disqualify a person to head one of those
particular Colleges which are, as the Evaluators
observe with approval, “meeting needs to invoke
alternative points of view in economic, political and
cultural aspects of society that do not appear
adequately represented within regular University
fare.”

Political theater lauded
To the Editor.
This letter is to acknowledge my appreciation
and admiration for the Living Theater production
and the people who conceived of the idea.
I was glad to finally see a production come from
UUAB that not only stimulated the people in the
“audience” as a form of entertainment, but also
stimulated them intellectually, emotionally and
hopefully confronted them with a little bit of

themselves. The Living Theater brought something
special to UB and it felt good to know that there are
people who care about other people and arc willing
to dedicate their lives to bettering the conditions of
humankind through political enlightehment. Let’s
heed the message of the Living Theater and put our
beliefs into practice through the formation of
political theater groups.

So you think the energy crisis is bad? Check

out these recent news items:

BENGASI, Libya (UPI)
Libya’s foreign
minister today announced that Libya would
place an embargo on all shipments of hashish to
the United States and all other countries
supporting Israel in the current Middle East war.
The Libyan official said the first step in the
embargo would amount to a 15% cutback in
exports of Libyan hash and “will be cut back
further unless these nations discontinue support
of Israeli aggression and demand that she return
all territories stolen during the 1967 war.”
Libya accounts for an undetermined but
large percentage of the hashish smoked in the
United States. The Netherlands, already suffering
under the Arab oil embargo, will be especially
hurt because it produces almost no domestic
hashish.
-

ROTTERDAM, Holland (Reuters) Here in
Holland, Dutch drug users are beginning to feel
-

the pinch from the Arab drug embargo. Holland
produces almost no domestic hash and is
dependent upon Middle East sources. An
announcement by U.S. Secretary of State Henry
Kissinger that the United States was willing “in
principle” to aid the Netherlands brought little
consolation.
Jan Hofmeyr, a sophomore at the University
of Utrecht, typifies the attitude of many: “It’s
really got me strung out, man. I’m dropping more
acid now than I have in the past year and I’ve
snorted so much coke the blood vessels in my
nose are ruptured.”

Special to The New York Times

WASHINGTON, Dec. 5
A spokesman for
the State Department said today the United
States “will not knuckle under to blackmail” and
is considering “appropriate, strong retaliatory
measures against the Arab countries” if the
newly-announced Libyan hashish embargo is not
lifted immediately. The spokesman warned all
Arab leaders that any country joining the hash
embargo would “meet with determined resistance
from the United States.”
Press Secretary Robert J. McCloskey refused
to comment on reports that the United States
would place an embargo on all exports of
more popularly known as
methaqualone
“qualuudes” headed for Arab countries.

About the arming pf Campus Security
It’s my
understanding that when Students Against Arming
Security was formed, their “leadership” made
statements to the effect of “we’re an apolitical
group,” and “political groups on campus are
welcome, but we don’t want them bringing in their
politics.” They apparently felt that the issue of
whether or not campus cops should be given guns
was somehow devoid of any political consideration.
By so discouraging a basic analysis of why there
are moves being made to arm Security, SAAS in
effect discourages the people on campus from seeing
the situation for what it really is. Preparations are
being made to create a situation in which people on
campus will be afraid to effectively express outrage
ovdr current and future developments in the power
structure’s consolidation of a fascist state in the U.S.
When BSU president Larry Williams was
harassed and busted, off campus, by Campus
Security on bogus, trumped-up charges, and forced
to part with plenty of money for his legal defense,
that was a clear case of political harassment. And it’s
not hard to guess what’s in store if and when

WASHINGTON (AP)
President Richard
Nixon is meeting with his top drug advisors to
work out specific proposals on the hash crisis.
Mr. Nixon will make a television broadcast
Thursday at 7 p.m. (est), outlining his proposals.
Sources indicate the President will seek to
relax restructions

camel dung and mud, open up more Federal land
for marijuana production and implement
allocation programs to direct hash to schools and
hospitals. ;
j-.

for students, but, rather, will serve the

interests of the administration. More guns on campus
will only increase the chances of violent
confrontation. It will be used against all students,
particularly politically active and Third World
students. At Wittenburg State, for example, a

student was shot dead by CAMPUS SECURITY
GUARDS when he was seen on a ledge of one of the
dorms trying to visit his girlfriend. This example and
the experience at Kent, Orangeburg, Southern
University, and Jackson State leaves a bitter memory
in the minds of most students, and it cannot be
easily forgotten. Guns in the hands of campus cops
means anything but security.
As a result of the 1969-70 demonstrations,
where a number of students were shot, Ketter began
to study ways to tighten up on security. Of all the
proposals, only one has been accepted, the one
which enables the guards to carry guns. The

administration has propped up the crime issue. We
did not ask for additional “protection” nor were
there mass complaints about it. Crime has decreased
38% in the last year and it is not a pressing problem
here at U.B. The students have shown overwhelming
opposition to the arming of security as indicated by
the S.A. referendum, the S.A. itself, The Spectrum,
and the Students Against Armed Security. It is the
demand of the administration to give campus guards
guns, not that of the students.
Ketter and the administration want control over
guns on campus. This accounts for their desire to get
rid of Brinks guards, who guard the payroll, and
replace them with his own armed guards. This is a
ploy to get the guards armed. Once this happens it
will be harder to disarm them. If Ketter is so
concerned about our security, why does he try to
create hostility and disunity among us. During a
meeting with Ketter he told us that the Black
students had asked that security be armed. This is a
vicious lie.

Our security and strength lie in each other and
that is what Ketter is so afraid of.

“The political realities [of the

technical aspects. If there are no

Mr. Telfer, who views the forum
as an outlet for a constructive

noted, because “if the main

Mr. Riszko dismissed the apparent atheism of

atheists on this campus and I don’t feel that they are
a threat to our program dying out.” Furthermore, he

While described as “exciting and relevant,” the
Religious Studies program suffers from a lack of
funds and therefore, publicity.
Describing the birth of the program, John
Riszko, Religious Studies Program director, said the
program arose out of student interest in religion, the
need for expanding consciousness, and students*
search for meaning in their present existence. In the
1971 spring semester the first religious studies
courses were organized at the University under a
single program.
At the time, the program was not incorporated
into the Collegiate Assembly because “The Women’s
Studies College was more politically organized and
the campus was more sensitive to its arguments than
ours,” according to Mr. Riszko. He noted that
presently the Religious Studies Program enrollment
surpasses that of the Women’s Studies College. There
are 4S0 students in the Religious Studies Program.

Baby Bulls lose on defense
by Paige Miller
Spectrum Staff Writer

Defense was the key factor in
the junior varsity basketball Bulls’
loss to Canisius, 102-69, Monday
evening. The junior varsity has
now lost both of its games,
allowing over one hundred points
in each contest.
Canisius’ tough defense did not
allow Buffalo to penetrate.
Consequently, the Bulls had to
settle for low percentage shots.
Buffalo
John
coach
Hill
commented: There was too much
dribbling. “We weren’t aggressive

enough [off the boards]. We got a
lot of second shots , but they
weren’t going in,” added Hill. The
Bulls shot only 28% from the
floor, while their defense was very
leaky, allowing many layups.
Canisius coach Bill Bennett
also thought defense was the key
to the game, but for a different
reason. Bennett was not satisfied
with his team’s 1-2-2 zone, so he
switched
to
a
man-to-man
defense- “We weren’t running
enough,” Bennett
remarked.
“When

that point the Golden Griffs blew

after last year’s 0-17 record.
Sanford, in his 2Sth year as
Buffalo’s
swimming
coach,
reflected on this season’s squad:
“This is a building year. The team
is looking better and with a little
added strength we could be a
team.
We were
contending
constantly converting the kids to
fill needs [different events in each
meet] Sanford added.
”

The Bulls are hoping for help
from the many freshman and
transfer students that dominate
the squad. Ritz described the
freshmen as anchoring file Buffalo
squad in the freestyle event. Five
members of last year’s squad,
including divers Tim Leo and A1
Thompson, are returning.

continually worked to support
Israel. In addition to supportive
articles, its staff has organized
fund-raising activities. In the
month of October,' Art published
an emergency issue in addition to
its regular monthly issue to
express feelings and attitudes on
the Middle East war. Art’s staff
maintained a booth in the center

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950).

Exodusfrom situ to suburbia
increasing rapidly in Buffalo
by leatmieLewis

Spectrum Staff Writer

My neighborhood has been often described as “the
panic zone.” Unless you are a very observant passerby, you
may not notice or fed the panic. It’s a quiet, middle-class
residential area within easy walking distance of the
University. It’s an attractive area, dose to two shopping
plazas, with schools as near as any parent could wish. It
would seem strange that most of the people in this
neighborhood are in a mad rush to sell their homes and
flee the city of Buffalo as fast as they can.
What’s happening here is a microcosmic example of a
general trend all throughout Buffalo and, on a larger scale,
throughout the country. The news media has recently been
devoting a great amount of attention to the exodus from
the cities. It’s not easy to understand how it feds to watch
neighborhoods empty themselves if you live in a booming
suburb or come from a small town. During the last three
years I’ve watched it happen on my street and it’s an eerie
sensation. The panic is contagious. My parents, who
darted their married life in the suburbs and moved to the
city because they hated the inward-looking isolation of
suburbia, are now contemplating where to move.

Anyone who is on the streets in downtown Buffalo at
five o'clock can watch what happens. People pour out of
the office buddings and head straight for their cars. The
stores remain open but are empty of shoppers. By S :30,
the streets are empty, the traffic is headed out on the
thruways and you’re one of the few people left. And you
know you better evacuate soon, too, because if something
were to happen, who’d be there to help? The downtown
restaurants are craving business and more than half have
either doaed completely, geared their hours to the business
day or have moved to suburbia. The after-hours drink.

formerly a tradition at a nearby bar, is now had
somewhere far away from downtown.
The city isis rapidly becoming a place where people go
to work or to attend classes. Afterwards, they return to
the sanctity of the periphery. The statistics which attest to
this fact aren’t very pretty. In 1960, the federal census
showed a population of 532,751 within the city limits of
Buffalo. In 1970, this figure was 462,768. The overall
population of Erie County increased by almost 49,000
during this ten-year period. Judging from this inverse ratio,
two conditions are present: the exodus from the city has
been massive, and Buffalo has a lot of empty houses.

Flight to the suburbs
1 have talked with some of the people who used to live
on my street but have since made the move to the suburbs.
One man works for the Fire Department. He said he
couldn’t stand the city anymore because at the station
where he worked, the fire alarms were constant and the
actual fires almost non-existent. He found himself arriving
at the scene from which the call originated only to be
jeered at by groups of kids who thought it was entertaining
to watch firemen show up expecting a fire. He siad he
tolerated the situation for years and finally decided to
move out of the city where he could do his job. If isn’t
funny, he explained, if there is a real fire and all the
engines are out on false alarms.
One woman said she moved her family to West Seneca
because she felt she was putting money into her home here
for nothing. People don’t want to live in the city anymore
because they’re afraid, she explained; she knew if she
waited any longer to move she’d lose money on her house.
The property values in the suburbs are steadily rising; in
the city they’re falling fast.
Crime up, values down

complex in my area. 1 know a family who lives in that
complex and they’re moving to the Riverside section.
Some of their children are grown but they still have two
young teenagers. The mother says she doesn’t want her
daughters raped or mugged. The parents don’t want to
leave the city entirely and they consider Riverside the
safest place to go that they can afford.
The unspoken fear in many of the cases is the influx
of blacks into previously all-white neighborhoods. Parents
fear theft, the exposure of drugs to pre-adolescents, and
plummetting property values. Racial strife in Buffalo’s
high schools are just one indication of a growing trend of
violence and gang warfare in the city. Whether or not the
white parents’ fears of the increasing numbers of
minorities are justified, to them they are compelling
reasons to leave the city.
Recently, a little card was circulated around my
neighborhood. It said that our neighbors at such-and-such
number were selling their home. Would we know of any
“suitable” family who might want to join our
neighborhood? There is no “For Sale” sign up at the
house. The people there said they’re hoping they can sell
privately to get the price they’re looking for. They’re old
and they’re afraid.
No longer shocking
Within the last two years, there have been three
reported rapes at the comer of my street. The first time
everyone was hysterical. Now people just shake their heads
and wonder. No one is on the street after dark, and that’s
pretty early in the winter months. No one waits for the
now-scarce buses. Few pee walk their dogs. Calls to the
neighborhood police station have more than doubled, and
false alarms constitute a great number of these calls. If you
think bicycle theft is bad at the University, try keeping a
bike in the garage behind your own house.
People mention Detroit as an extreme example of the
residential deterioration of a city. It’s happening here and
it ’s happening fast. It won’t be long before the most
desired place for students to live will be on the Amherst
campus. The University is making its own move to
suburbia, and the Main Street campus will shortly become
a relative calm in the middle of a big storm.

Trek ideas
Nimoyfeels ‘Star
by Richard Lippman
Spectrum Staff Writer

‘There is too little exploration taking
place in television drama today,” Leonard
Nimoy told an overflow crowd in the Moot
Courtroom on the Amherst Campus.
“Most of the work that’s being done is
derivative work,” explained the former
Star Trek actor. When a program is chosen
to go on the air, tleevision executives will
cover themselves by “taking aspects of
other successful shows and building them
into this new show,” Mr. Nimoy said.

However, “when Star Trek was conceived,
it really was an exploratory idea, because
true science Action was missing from
television.”
The former Mr. Spock said Star Trek
producer Gene Roddenbury deserves much
of the credit because he fought a constant
battle against derivative work in his show.
For instance, when Mr. Roddenbury
“conceived of the idea of having a
pointed-eared individual as one of the
heroes of the series, the specific verbal
response that he got from the network
programming head was: ‘television series
must have characters with whom the
American public can identify’.” This kind
of response typifies the “rigid, channeled
kind of vision which denies the creative
process in television," he said, and a

revolution would have to occur in
television to get creativity operating.
Still contemporary
Mr. Nimoy said he is currently doing the
voice for the Star Trek cartoons, which he
Woflld prefer to call “animated shows.”
When they first asked him to do the sound
track, he said; “1 got sick.” However, he is
satisfied with the cartoons, although he
does not feel they are up to the caliber of
the original show. ‘They have made a very
sincere and quite successful attempt to
maintain a certain stature,” he said, “and
they are nothing at all like the shows that
surround them on Saturday morning.”
When Star Trek went off the air, Mr.
Nimoy said, he expected it to quietly fade
away after three years of reruns. Now,
however, he realizes he was totally wrong
about the show’s life span and believes it
will go on forever. “The scripts still hold
up, and somehow as each year goes by and
new scientific and political developments
take place, the show seems to be very
contemporary.”

Reruns make money
“In Los Angeles,” he continued, “we’ve
got a bunch of real hard core Star Trek
junkies.” In one instance, a young man
“came up to me and said ‘Man, I watch
Star Trek every day, it’s on at six o’clock!”
Mr. Nimoy responded: “But you miss the

six o’clock news," to which the young.man
“I can believe £far 7&gt;ek„fl*h’t
believe the news,”
Will Star Trek be coming back?;, Mr.
Nimoy seemed to think not. About two
years ago NfiC decided maybe it should,
and approached Paramount, which owns
the rights to Star Trek he said. Paramount
turned them down because “they are
making a lot of money off the reruns.”
Paramount feels if it were to put new Star
Trek episodes on the air, it would lose the
money it is making from the reruns, and
result in deficit financing. However, if
people lose interest in the reruns in two or
three years, Paramount might consider
making new Star Treks, Mr. Nimoy

explained.

Scientifically realistic
‘There’s been some talk in the last few
mon ths about making a Star Trek movip, a
feature for theatrical release,” Mr. Nimoy
said. No decisions have been made
regarding production and casting, but “it's
possible,” he commented.
The Enterprise, the space ship used on
Star Trek, was designed by the Rand
Corporation, he said. Rand attempted to
predict the different types of energy that
might be used in the 20th and 21st
centuries. “There was a sincere effort on
Gene Roddenbury’s part to keep Star Trek

within the limits of scientific feasibility,”
Mr. Nimoy explained. Its emphasis was on
the science of science fiction, rather than
science fantasy.
Mr. Nimoy sayed he enjoyed doing Star
Trek and he was “more into it than Mission
Impossible, although Mission Impossible
was not as hard work.” He is undecided as
to what he will be doing in the future. He
is writing his second book, and is deeply
into black-and-white photography. “I’d be
glad to do science fiction again, as long as
the script is good enough and it’s
challenging,” he said.
The former Science Officer of the
Enterprise said he began his acting career
when he was eight years old in a local
neighborhood theater in Boston, “because
I was a lousely baskeyball player, so the
best thing to do was to start acting right
away.” By the time he was 17, he had done
several children's plays. At 17, he was cast
in a play about “a Jewish family in a
tenement neighborhood and that was my
family. The kid in the play said things I
could have said myself, and I became very
much involved in the idea of drama as a
social way of expressing myself.”
When asked at the end if he would sign
autographs, he said he would be delighted
to. However, when warned that he would
never be able to leave, he suggested that he
could “transport out.”

(FSCC). However, opposition is expected
from many faculty members who maintian
that allowing students to be present at
tenure discussions would violate the
principle of peer review. “Discussions
should be carried on exclusively among
peers,” contended George Hochfield,
Chairman-elect of the Faculty-Senate. “1
don’t believe students are competent to
make tenure decisions.”
‘Extremely qualified’
Strongly disagreeing, former GSA
President Joe Poveromo said the proposal
as passed by the FSCC called for two
“extremely qualified” students to serve on
the Tenure Review Board; a senior
undergraduate who has been active in
University affairs and a graduate in the
PhD program who was familiar with
research and has an “excellent awareness of
professional requirements.” “It still will be
peer review because students will have a
non-voting status, apd. will not in any way
dilute the tenure process,” Mr. Poveromo
emphasized.
“How could two students sitting reading
dossiers offer any significant advice?” Dr.
Hochfield questioned. Reviewing an
instructor’s credentials requires a “certain
kind of knowledge,” he stated. Instead of
continuing to “bark up the wrong tree,”
Dr. Hochfield suggested that students
increase their input.by making sure that
SCATE books (student evaluations of
teachers) were published frequently so
departmental faculty could better assess
student opinion of instructors. Tenure
decisions receive the strongest influence at
the departmental level and the Presidential
Review Board is not such an “all-powerful
body,” Dr. Hochfield said. ‘In a certain

Voice for students

Executive Committee Member Mark
Scechner strongly supported allowing two
non-voting students to serve on the Board.
“The whole notion of peer review itself is
medieval,” Dr. Scechner said. “The entire
educational community has got to have
some voice in how that community should
be structured.”
Criticizing the Presidential Review
Board system as a whole, one spokesman
said it made many “gratuitous” decisions
which were lacking in educational
rationale. An unofficial quota system
existed, he said, which “took the form of a
tendency to deny early tenure,” making it
extremely difficult for instructors to

(Instructors can teach at this University six
years; after that, they are either granted
tenure or released.” Having two students
on the Tenure Board would be a “quality
control measure,” to ensure that the board
wasn’t manipulated by extraneous forces
like pressure from quotas, the spokesman
maintained.
As qualified as anyone'
While supporting the proposal in theory.
Executive Committee member Micheal
Metzger indicated there were “problematic
aspects” with regard to the contract
between the professors and the Senate
Professional Association (SPA). The
contract specifically states that academic
advancement decisions are to be made by
peer review. Dr. Metzger explained. "The
question is whether this means it should be
exebtsivet
4

A student serving on the Tenure Board
might even hamper student interests. Dr.
Metzger suggested, because a faculty
member who was refused tenure might
claim it was denied because of student
opposition and proceed to file a grievance
against the University. “It’$/ not a
black-and-white issue, but I’ve sat on
important committees with students and
they are as qualified as anyone,” he
asserted. “I’m absolutely for it in theory,
but there may be ramifications that I
haven’t thought about.”
Reaching more members
the proposal on
After hearing
Wednesday, the Faculty-Senate Executive
Committee can either act on the resolution
and send it to President Robert Ketter, or
send it directly to the Faculty-Senate for a
full vote. Stategy considerations may
dictate whether it ends up in the full
Senate, one informed source claimed.
However, if the Executive Committee
approves it but the opposition protests
loudly enough, he feared it would be sent
to the full Senate, where widespread
opposition is expected.
Although he would not take a stance on
the proposal. Faulty-Senate Chairman Gil
Moore favored sending the resolution to
the full Senate even if the Executive
Committee rejected it, a procedure which
would probably then be welcomed by
students. However, he said this might not
be possible because under Senate by-laws,
the Faculty-Senate can review only those
issues that have been sent from an official
Fac-Sen committee. Although the FSCC
has accepted the proposal. Dr. Moore said
the rule may not apply because the FSCC
is only an ad-hoc committee. “But the
Executive Committee can at times operate
somewhat independently and can send
things to the Senate,” he surmised.
While stating that Dr. Ketter favored
“student input on all levels as evidenced by
his past actions,” Mr. Poveromo speculated
that the President would follow whatever
recommendation he received from the
Faculty-Senate The committee reportedly
stands 3-1 against the resolution, but Mr.
Poveromo
said
this was
due
to
misinformation about the proposal.
“But unless we reach more Executive
committee members before Wednesday’s
meeting, the proposal is in some trouble.”

�NYSA to fight state’s
strict marijuana laws

by Marc Jacobson
City Editor

Although the effects of New York State’s new
drug law have been widely publicized,.little attention
has been focused on opposition to the law. The New
York Student Association (NYSA) formed in the
early weeks of September is fighting the present
status of the New York marijuana laws.
Originated by Ithaca College students Andy
Telsey and Kenny May, the group has spent the last
three months organizing two major conventions,
establishing a charter, and fostering communication
among various New York State colleges and

universities.
“We are planning a second conference at Hofstra
University on February 1,” said Mr. May, explaining
NYSA’s future plans. “Because of Hofstra’s
proximity to New York City (the school is located
on Long Island), we hope to get major media
coverage of the convention.
“Howard Samuels [unannounced Democratic
candidate for Governor] has already said he would
attend.” At the last conference, held October 12-14,
State Minority Leader Jeremiah Bloom (D.,
Brooklyn) spoke in support of the students’ effort.
Permanent organization
Although the NYSA was created in reaction to
passage of the toughest drug law in the nation, both
Mr. May and Mr. Telsey plan to establish a
permanent organization. Once the NYSA becomes

organized,

such
student-oriented issues as repealing the sales tax on
textbooks and increased aid to independent schools.
At the present time, however, they are focusing their
efforts on the decriminalization of marijuana.
“I think we can be successful,” Mr. May said.
“With the proper media coverage and a large turnout
at the February convention, our effort will really get
off the ground.” Following the convention, Mr. May
the group would begin concentrating their
three-pronged attack on the marijuana laws, with the
ultimate goal of a statute similar to the one passed in
Oregon in November. The new Oregon statute
said

reduces a marijuana
to a status similar to a minor traffic
violation, with a maximum fine of $ 100 attached.
The assault

concentrate on lobbying in the State Legislature.
“Once we establish the number of people who we
are actually representing, then the legislators will be
more receptive to our lobbying and we will also be
better aware of who we are speaking for.” The group
is seeking further recognition from other highly
visible people besides Mr. Samuels, and has been in
contact with the National Organization for the
Repeal of the Marijuana laws (NORML) in this
regard. NORML sent Frtmk Fiormante of the New
York division of NORML to the last NYSA
conference. NYSA has also been seeking contact
with Ramsey Clark, former Attorney General under
President Johnson, who recently filed suit in
Washington, D.C. to decriminalize the federal
marijuana laws.
Part two of the attack will focus on obtaining
sufficient signatures on petitions to place the
question of decriminalizing pot on the election
ballot as a referendum next November. This will
require a huge effort and a great deal of manpower,
but Mr. May seems fairly confident the objective can
be achieved.
The third portion of the attack would simply
concentrate on a massive letter-writing campaign.
Mr. May described two alternatives: “We can either
print up a standard form letter which the legislators
might throw out, or ask that individual letters be
written to all the legislators in the hope of generating
personalized responses.” The printed letter would
create the most volume, but individual letters would
have the greater impact, Mr. May noted.
Twelve regions
The state has presently been broken down into
twelve regions, each containing ten schools. Within
each region is a coordinating school which serves as a
communication link between the region and the
policy board, located at Ithaca College. According to
the NYSA charter, policy decisions will be made in
Ithaca by a policy board, elected from the members
at large, and disseminated to the various schools.
No specific timetable has been established for
the drive to decriminalize marijuana. At the
moment, explained Mr. May, the primary focus is to
“maximize attendance” at the February meeting. A
more exact timetable will be established at that
meeting, as well as the determination of specific
goals and priorities.

addition, the number of assistants

them to work more closely with

�Middle East peace
talks are dissolved
The Egyptian-Israeii military talks on the Cairo-Suez road have
disbanded in disagreement. The talks dissolved Friday after only an

hour of consultation when the two sides failed to reach agreement
on the crucial issue of the disengagement of troops.
Even as the talks were in progress, machine gun and mortar fire
was exchanged two miles up the road. The firing, which was
described by observers as heavy, lasted approximately thirty
minutes. United Nations observers reported that the Egyptian
troops opened fire with machine guns and the Israeli positions
responded with mortars. The gunfire was clearly visible from the
tent where Israeli General Aharon Yarive and Egyptian Major
General Mohammed Gamasy were conducting their talks.

Nothing new
The two men were unable to reach an accord on the pullback
of Israeli troops. The Arabs demanded unconditional withdrawal to
the pre-1967 lines while the Israelis maintained their earlier
emphasis on the disengagement of troops in the Sinai. Neither side
was able to come up with a new proposal, and no date was set for
further military discussions.
Despite the breakdown in negotiations and the new outbursts
of fighting, officials in Washington expressed confidence that the
scheduled Mideast peace talks would get under way in Geneva in
mid December as planned.

Black experience

Digesting‘Coin’ A Buffalo’

Ed Smith, director of this weekend’s Harriman
Theater offering Coin' A Buffalo hits it right on the
head when he advises: “Do not try to digest (the

Director Smith has gone to painstaking lengths
to bring us a complete picture of a time in the life of
the black experience. The audience is treated to
some sweet sounds from a combo called the

cutbacks

by Louis Harris
By decisive margins,
the
American people are prepared not
only to go along with the
demands put upon them by the
President in the energy crisis, but
are willing to go well beyond
current sacrifice if called upon to
do so. The only major suggestionwhich was rejected by the public
was “to put higher taxes on
gasoline, so that people will use
less gas in their automobiles,”
opposed by a decisive 78-17
percent margin.
In a special Harris Survey
just before the President spelled
out his energy program on
national T.V. a cross section of
1,459 households interviewed in
person between November 12 and
15 reacted this way to specific
energy shortage problems and
solutions:
By 77-19 percent, a sizable
majority favored lowering the
speed limit on the nation’s
highways to 50 miles per hour.
By 73-23 percent, almost
three in every four people were
willing to have the temperature in
their places of work lowered by as
much as 10 degrees and 6 degrees
in their homes.
By 51 -42 percent, the people
support
the proposition of
“prohibiting the use of outdoor
advertising lights,” a more
stringent rule than the one which
will now be in effect.
By 74-19 percent, the people

The

to
key
public
unwillingness to sec gasoline
prices rise as a means of cutting
consumption is that the public is
willing to undergo cutbacks in its
use of
gopnlinp
but is patently exposed to
measures which use hikes as a way
to control usage. Basically, this
means that ultimate rationing of
gasoline and fuel oil will go down
better with the American people
than will any system of cutting
demand
by manipulating the price. The
reasoning of the public is that
raising the price would help the
rich and penalize the poor, and
-that naything which adds to the
cost of living is hard to stomach in
these times.
The results also point up an
important and significant insight
about the American people. Many
government people have assumed
that with the absence of a
wartime situation, the public
would be in no mood to make
sacrifices, Yet what the Harris
Survey has found points precisely
in the opposite direction: the

The only problem with the International Food
Tasting Festival Thursday night was that the paper
plates ran out too soon. Only thirty minutes after
the first people were let into the Fillmore Room, the
paper plates were gone and hungry late arrivals
wandered about looking for foods that could be
eaten with the fingers.
The food didn’t last much longer than the
plates. Soon after the plates ran out, the only items
left were the Raita, a very spicy Pakistani dressing
for beef kebab, and the judiciously-parceled Italian
ziti and Brazilian feijofda-a thick, strong, black dish
spooned out over laranjas, a Brazilian rice.
Delicacies
The International Food Tasting Festival was
sponsored by the Student Association (SA) office of
International Affairs and the International clubs. SA
International Affairs Coordinator Dave Sancho said
it was decided to make the food-tasting into a single
event, rather than continue the former practice of
including it with individual international club
activities.
The festival represented over one dozen
countries. Although the Middle East is in turmoil,
Israel and the Arab nations managed to work in
a meat and
peaceful co-existence. The Arab fteer
went quickly, as did everything the
vegetable pie
Israeli students served.
Since everyone likes Oriental food, the Chinese
and Japanese foods were gobbled up. And nothing
was left of the Vietnamese Goi Ga and Cha Gio.
Whatever the Iranian students served was
immediately consigned to history as everything from
food to signs to servers disappeared quickly.

Gobbled up
Whatever Greek baclava is will aslo remain a
secret, because none was left after the first few
minutes. German lebkuchen, pffemeuse and
chocolate cake also vanished quickly. Spanish pailla

Latin American food didn’t last long, either. The
Polish students, in colorful native costume, served

The reported opposition of the Faculty-Senate executive
committee to the SA-GSA proposal to place two non-voting
students on the Presidential Tenure Review Board would be
understandable if not for those two key words: non-voting.
Since the undergraduate and graduate who must be
"extremely qualified" to be selected
would not be able to
vote, they would assume the role of observers. While they
would presumably offer vocal input, their non-voting status
will not interfere with peer review as the sole determinant of
tenure decisions (as mandated by con tract). While it is true
that students should seek greater input at the more
important departmental level, through letter-writing and
SCATE forms, there is no reason why students should be
denied a voice at high levels as well.
Faculty members who seem somewhat paranoid about
these two students should remember they will be non-voting
observers. If tenure considerations are really above-board
procedures where "deals" and personal manipulations have
no place, there is nothing to fear from two student observers.
But if the Fac-Sen executive committee proves itself

To the Editor
The recent showing of the film “A Question of
Torture” in Norton Conference Theater prompted
me to write our two Senators to protest use of our
tax dollars to support foreign police forces (esp. that
of South Vietnam). Senator Buckley, who seems
more concerned with protecting the unborn than the
genuinely living, has ignored my letter, but Senator
Javits responded very sensibly (to say the least). I am
sure that Senator Javits would not mind if you were
to print his letter along with this one.

The following is Senator Javits’ reply
Dear Mr. Corcoran
Thank you for your recent communication
concerning political prisoners in foreign nations and
United States-assisted public safety programs. I
understand and appreciate the deep concern that has
prompted you to write.

Assistance Authorization bill

rejected.

Political prisoners, and United States assistance
to foreign policy forces are matters of deepest
concern to me. In the Foreign Relations Committee,
of which I am a member, I supported Section
2702(b) of the Foreign Military Sales and Assistance
Act (S.1443) to prohibit the use of any funds for
“any police training or related program for a foreign
country.” The Senate passed the bill containing this
prohibition on June 26 by a vote of 50-42, and it has
been sent to a House-Senate Conference Committee
to resolve differences between the House and Senate
versions of this legislation.
I co-sponsored an amendment to the Foreign
Aid bill stating the sense of the Congress that the
President should deny Chile assistance until he finds
that that regime is protecting the human rights and

civil liberties of all Chileans. This amendment was
adopted by the Senate on October 2. I also
supported an amendment to the Foreign Aid bill,
declaring it to be Congressional policy to bar funds
that would assist in maintaining the present status of
Portuguese colonies in Africa.
I have made repeated inquiries and
representations to the State Department and to
South Vietnamese officials regarding political
prisoners in South Vietnam. You may be sure that I
will continue to do all 1 can on behalf of the civil
liberties and human rights of politically oppressed
persons everywhere in the world.
Thank you for taking the time to write and give
me your views.

�Student participation and great
flexibility urged in the colleges
Editor’s note; The following article, detailing former
Colleges Director Konrad vonMoltke’s report to an
educational planning conference in Paris last January, is
presented amidst the on-going evaluation of the Colleges
by the Faculty-Senate Colleges Committee. The Colleges
Committee is currently grappling with many of the
es dealt with by Dr. vonMoltke especially Those of

faculty involvement, budgetary matters, administration
control and participatory planning.
-

by Gary Cohn
Contributing Editor

“Participatory planning is neither an alternative nor
a separate form of planning. It is a necessary element in
any rational planning for large, complex systems of
education.”
That assessment of higher education was made by
Konrad vonMoltke at an educational planning conference
in Paris last January. Dr. vonMoltke headed the Colleges
from fall 1970 until spring 1972, when he resigned.
Participatory planning, according to Dr. vonMoltke,
“restricts itself to developing a procedure by which
initially undetermined outcomes may be achieved.” It
enables those individuals lowest in the hierarchial ranking
to be both autonomous and contribute to policy.
Free schools were cited by Dr. vonMoltke as a basic
example of participatory planning. In the open classroom
atmosphere, students are allowed to “determine their
individual syllabi on a day-to-day basis cooperatively with
their teachers.”

Co-opting
Dr. vonMoltke contrasted participatory planning
with “prefigurative planning,” which “assumes that
potential objectors can be co-opted into acquiescence with
the planning process.” For instance, “parent-teacher
and
organizations”
“most
schemes for
student
participation in school or university governance” fall into
this category, he explained.
The largest of the experiments in participatory
planning is the Collegiate System at the State University of
Buffalo, Dr. vonMoltke noted. Other examples include
Empire State .College, Evergreen State College and the
School of Education at the University of Massachusetts.
Describing the original formation of the Colleges, Dr.
vonMoltke stated: “Instead of creating academic units
with specific plans and procedures, the Faculty-Senate of
AB
the, ujfjprecedeflted step of defining a
procedure,
for the establishment, operation and
disestablishment of short-term academic units on the sole
initiative of groups of faculty and students.”

SU^

Five characteristics
By delegat ng “substantial planning authority” to
College participants, the University created a
framework for participatory planning within the
University structure, Dr. vonMoltke explained.
However, because the University did not delegate
any authority regarding the “definition and accreditation
of degree programs,” students could take only elective'
credits through the Colleges.
Within two years of its-inception, there were 16
individual colleges with an enrollment of about 3500
students each semester. Various colleges were added,
the

College

phased out or

changing needs.

modified in an attempt to keep pace with

Five characteristics were cited by Dr. vonMoltke as
“typical elements in the Colleges;” (1) lack of
predetermination; (2) dependence on high levels of
commitment; (3) rapid change and great flexibility; (4)
lack of identification with any traditional department or.
discipline; (5) willingness to experiment.
Demonstrators ‘major factor’
Dr. vonMoltke paid he was surprised

at the
willingness of the Faculty-Senate to constitute the kind
of open-ended experiment
which the Colleges

represented.

Student demonstrations on campus when
the issue was before the Faculty-Senate was a “major
factor” in the Senate’s ratification of the Colleges,
contended Dr. vonMoltke.
The Collegiate Prospectus (by-laws) passed by the
Faculty-Senate “created a significant realm of freedom of
planning and action for any group of students, faculty or
staff, rather than specifically authorized delegates of the
student body or faculty or officers of the University.”
However, a “number of implicit institutional
controls” imposed by the Administration became focal
points of controversy in the development of the
Colleges.

Catch-all phrases
For instance, the Faculty-Senate had included the
phrase “within SUNY policies” in detailing operating
procedures for the Colleges. According to
Dr. vonMoltke,
the Administration occasionally used this phrase as a
“catch-all” under which “the authority of the president of
SUNYAB could at any time be reasserted.”
Such clauses were used to limit experimentation,
said Dr. vonMoltke, “when attempts were made to
introduce self-evaluative procedures for individual
students, or in the single instance where the Assembly
moved to authorize the establishment of a College unit the
Administration considered insupportable.”
Budgets were a further point of contention between
the Colleges and the Administration. The Colleges
were
“continually underfunded,” the former Collegiate director
maintained. The Administration threatened to cut off
funds from individual units at various times, he added.
'

Split develops
The Colleges’ success in “preventing any attempt to
a means of exerting systematic external
program control” was the “critical point” in the budgetary
disputes with the Administration, Dr. vonMoltke said.
Faculty involvement in the Colleges created a
fundamental conflict between the Colleges and regular

use the budget as

academic departments, Dr. vonMoltke explained: “By
transferring part of their teaching activities to College
units, the faculty members were effectively criticizing the
ability of departments to provide them with optimal
teaching environments.” '
A split developed, and several departments either
“demanded reimburseme t of faculty effort dr refused to
count faculty work in the Colleges as part of their regular
teaching load,” added Dr. vonMoltke. These observations
are interesting since recent criticisms have focused on the
lack of faculty support for the Colleges, while others

Mathematics and Biology
In MAS 273 we will apply math to biology, primarily by the evaluation and design of
mathematical models of biological processes. In recent years modeling techniques
(including computer simulation) have been used in a wide range of medical and other
biological research problems. Our emphasis will be on these applications, and not on
rigorous mathematics.

He also announced a new policy of increasing the
U.S. naval presence in the Indian Ocean.

Nixon’s secretary coached
Rose Mary Woods’ lawyer, Charles Rhyire, says she
was rehearsed for “some hours” by White House lawyers
before testifying about missing Watergate tapes. The
charge by Mr. Rhyne in Judge Sirica’s court on Thursday
contained a clear suggestion that President Nixon’s private
secretary thinks she may not be totally responsible for her
testimony.

It had all the earmarks of a new defense line by Miss
Woods, who appeared to be cutting at least some of her
White House moorings in an effort to justify her own role
in handling the controversial tapes.
When reporters asked Mr. Rhyne if Miss Woods was
in trouble, he would only smile and say; “If you guys can’t
figure it out, you’re dumber than I thought you were.”

CIA employs journalists

newspaper said the names of about 40 full-time reporters,
free4ance journalists and trade publication correspondents
were listed in the agency’s files after a review ordered by
Director William E. Colby two months ago.
Colby was said to have ordered a cutback in
CIA-foreign correspondent relationships after getting a
report on the extent of the situation. The Star-News said
about five full-time staff correspondents representing
general circulation organizations, who had served as CIA
undercover contacts and were paid on a contractual basis,

Students lose rent case ■*
SYRACUSE, N.Y. (UPI)
State Supreme Court
Justice Stewart F. Hancock Jr. has denied a bid by S4

temporary housing in which they lived while their
university-built apartments were being constructed.
The students were among about 500 who were
scheduled to move into a new apartment complex at the
start of the academic year.
The displaced students had been housed at area
motels and in university housing while their apartments
were being finished. Hancock denied the students’ motion

Debate over prof giving all A’s
by Guy Lewit
Spectrum Staff Writer

Binghamton math professor who
guaranteed A’s to all of his 563 students
who attended class regularly has become
immersed in a controversy over academic
A

standards.
David Klamer, who teachs a lower-level
mathematics class at the State University at
Binghamton, decided to give his entire class
a uniform grade of A to alleviate the

pressure-filled competitive atmosphere.
He originally wanted to grade the class
on a pass/no credit system. However, he
did not present this proposal to the
administration in time for registration, and
students signed up for normal grading
options. The students were subsequently
unwilling to change their grading option to
pass/no credit, Mr. Klamer explained.
Each student should extract from the

course what is relevant for him and not feel
compelled to memorize insignificant facts
for the sake of a good mark, the math
professor maintained. “How do you
evaluate what students learn? You cannot
measure it objectively,” said Mr. Klamer.
He feels classes need to go through a
series of changes, and mentioned he was
“sort of groping around” for the proper
way to teach math.
Although Mr. Klarner said he was
sensitive to students’ needs, demands and
capabilities, some students said the course
turned out to be farcical. While recognizing
its potential worth, they cited several
obstacles which blocked its success. Their
major complaint was that Mr. Klarner
moved too quickly from topic to topic.
“He assumes too much,” explained one
student. Mr. Klamer directs himself toward
people with extensive training in math, and
doesn’t take into account the many
students who have no math training past

the high school level, the student added.
Consequently, many have become bored
and frustrated because they cannot grasp
the principles he is trying to get across.
While his ideas are interesting, complained
another student, Mr. Klamer was unable to
mesh any of them together into a single
concept.
Students also criticized the large size of
the class, and found the noise in the room
distracting, believing it affected the
professor’s ability to teach. During one
class, Mr. Klarner even walked out to
protest the noise.
All those interviewed agreed that Mr.
Klarper was sincere, interested in his work
and able to effectively teach at least one or
two concepts from his lectures, although
not everyone attended lectures regularly.
While most
students admitted his
“idealistic”
grading
system
was
noteworthy, the consensus was that it was
unworkable. They admitted, however, that

Pleads naivete
Mr. Klarner said he is becoming
increasingly aware of students’ problems,
after initially receiving minimal feedback
from the students and misinterpreting that
which he did receive. He now intends to
slow down his teaching pace in accordance
with the students’ desires and cover only
one main idea a day.
Offended that the course has been
termed “trivial” and “boring” by some, he
stated: “Anyone who takes it seriously will
find it damned hard.”
When questioned why he did not take
into account how many students would
take the course for a free A only, he
pleaded naivete. Having realized his
mistake in assuming students would enroll
out of pure interest, Mr. Klarner has now
instituted an attendance rule. Every
student must attend three out of four
classes per week.
Despite the free A, he insisted his
students still gain some mathematical
insights from his lectures: “Just come and
listen,” he said, “and get what you can.”

The hockey Bulls tuned for a series against Ohio
State this weekend by defeating Division II foes RIT
and Brockport last weekend at Twin Rinks. Buffalo
whitewashed the Tigers 5-0 Friday night and
annihilated Brockport 13-1 on Saturday.
Rochester Tech goaltender Marty Reasoner kept
the Bulls from running up a huge margin Friday
night as he stopped 40 of 44 shots before leaving the
game late in the third period. The Bulls failed to
score in the first period despite testing Reasoner 20
times.

Eagle goaltenders Steve Flanders and Ron
Glaslow were bombarded with 52 shots Saturday
night as Buffalo tied a record with nine goals in the
second period. Flanders and Glaslow would have
been hard pressed to guard a cage half the size of a
regulation net as the Brockport defense did an
excellent job of avoiding the puck. The Bulls scored
with their first four shots in the second period
before Glaslow was credited with a save.

Bulls hungrier
“I think that the difference was the fact that
they were going in tonight and they weren’t going in
last night,” observed Bull coach Ed Wright. “In
addition, I thought that we played a hungrier type of
game around their net tonight. Another difference
was the caliber of goaltenders. Reasoner is a real
good goaltender," Wright added.
The Bull forwards were paced by captain John
Stranges’ line against RIT and Brockport as Stranges’
trio combined for eight goals in the weekend series.

twice on Saturday. Andre Poirier also tallied three
times against the Eagles.

Buffalo lost right wing Mike Dixon and
defenseman Mike Perry for Friday night’s opener
against Ohio State. Dixon was ejected from Sarurday
night’s contest when he engaged in a second-period
fight with Eagle defenseman Charles Wrobleski,
Perry followed Dixon to the showers when he was
tossed out late in the third period for swinging his
stick at Brockport’s Mike McCadam. Game

“I didn’t try to hurt the kid,” reflected Perry. “I

my head,” Perry added.

Dougla s attacks unchecked
growth of corporate control
by Clem Cohicci
Spectrum Staff Writer

The longest-serving justice in
the history of the Supreme Court,
William 0. Douglas, ticlced off a
detailed list of ‘Toints of
Rebellion”
from corporate
influence in government to US.
before
policy in Latin America
a near-capacity crowd in Clark
Hall Tuesday evening.
The 14th Amendment to the
Constitution, originally designed
to protect freed blacks, has been
twisted to protect corporations
from governmental regulation,
said the controversial 77 year-old
associate Justice. Heavily-financed
corporate lobbies have turned the
government into a government
“of the corporations, by the
corporations and for the
corporations,” Mr. Douglas said.
While he doesn’t think
corporate influence works in a
“venal or corrupt way,” he added,
Federal advisory commissions
have traditionally been dominated
by industrialists and commercial
leaders. Corporate interests work
behind the scenes by “identifying
the public interest with corporate
prosperity,” Mr. Douglas said. He
tolfl the crowd he “would rather
trust the common sense of the
people in this room, not the
‘experts’ who are conditioned by
agencies and corporations.”
The effect of corporate control
has been particularly harmful to
the environment. Having grown
up in the unspoiled wilderness of
the Pacific Northwest, Justice
Douglas has long been active in
conservation and environmental
protection.; -r*'

Unsolved problems
The rapid spread of nuclear
power facilities must be stopped,
the Justice said. Citing examples
of the unsolved problem of
radioactive waste disposal, Mr.
Douglas said the risks of nuclear

power development far outweigh
the potential benefits.
The Supreme Court member
laid the blame for the current
energy crisis on the doorstep of
the corporation heads on Federal
advisory bodies, who over the
years have allocated only 1% of all
research and development money
in the energy field to developing
alternative sources of power.
The energy crisis is
“self-inflicted,” Justice Douglas
explained. Not only have “tax
concessions financed the
destruction of the environment,”
he explained, but the current oil
shortage is ‘‘the old trick of
monopoly keep the supply low
and prices high. Claiming that the
25 leading oil companies also own
most of the coal, natural gas and
uranium in America, he said the
“fuel monopoly” has discouraged
the development of solar power
and hydrogen fusion energy
two promising energy sources that
cannot be monopolized. The “fuel
monopoly” has dictated policy by
contributing to both political
parties and “brainwashing the
public” through the media.
Many Federal projects
injurious to the environment have
a need to keep such
resuUed_fj
bodies as the Army Corps of
Engineers employed, he added.

Secrecy deplored
In the spirit of Watergate and
the secret bombing of Cambodia,
Mr. Douglas attacked secrecy in
government. When he was with
the Securities Exchange
Commission, he recalled, he had a
“secret’s stamp, but he never used
it. He said a secret stamp was “a
good way to cover your tracks for
10 or 15 years,’’ to “keep the
bureaucrats ahead of the hound
dogs.”
Elaborate precautions were
taken during the Pentagon Papers
controversy, Mr. Douglas
explained, to make sure no one

would see the contents of the
papers other than the
Justices of the Supreme Court.
Though the government insisted
the information in the papers had
to be kept secret for the sake of
“national security,” Mr. Douglas
said: “I read all that stuff and
there wasn’t anything in there I
didn’t already know.”
secret

Right to know
Indiscriminate use of the secret
classification power “dilutes the
right of the people to know,” the
Justice said. But not only does the
government prevent the people
from learning what it is doing, it
insists on learning what they are
doing. Mr. Douglas revealed that
when he and his wife wish to
discuss something especially
private, they go for a walk, the
implication was that in our
Watergate society, they were
afraid to have an intimate
discussion in their own home.
The practice of searching mail
and wastebaskets was widespread,
Mr. Douglas said, so he tries “to
put something in every once in
awhile to keep these guys going.”
Turning to the field of
international affairs, Mr. Douglas
criticized American policy in the
tertfTiemisphere. TJJS. policy
has tended to support poverty and
dictatorships in Latin America, he
said. The only answer is massive
economic development and an
end to American hostility toward
reform and revolutionary
movements in Latin America.
Mr. Douglas said his friend, the
late South Vietnam President
Diem, was murdered by the CIA
at a cost of $24 million
because he opposed the
introduction of American forces
into his country. The liberal
Justice also spoke of a secret
“CIA-financed war in Laos,” some
tactics of which “apparently
spilled over onto the domestic
scene.”

Aid in learning researching

Yoram Szeieky

The long-awaited Undergraduate
Library will open its doors Monday.
While it will initially be used as a study
hall, the Diefendorf Annex library will
eventually aid students in learning research
methods and provide undergraduates with
additional copies of important books.
Sixteen thousand volumes, mostly in
the humanities and social sciences, will be
housed in the new library. The bulk of
these books are gifts to the University and
will be available for circulation when
classes resume in January 1974.
Additionally, the 3S00 undergraduate
volumes now on reserve at Harriman
Library will be moved to Diefendorf
Annex.
“We hope to make it easier for students
to leant about libraries and to learn
research methods that will aid them when
researching in a more complex system,”

said Yoram Szekely, head of the new
venture.

The library will contain a “two-track”
system for student input, Dr. Szekely
indicated. Besides having a bulletin board
for questions and suggestions, there will be
printed request slips for specific' books at
the circulation desk.
Books will be available on a two-week
renewal basis. The purpose of the short
loan period, explained Dr. Szezcly, is to
curtail the common practice of borrowing
books that are needed for only a short
time, but kept for the entire semester.
Faculty as well as students will be subject
to these borrowing regulations. This system
should make more books availably for

browsing.
Staffing the library will be Dr. Szekely,
five professional librarians, four civil
servants and several student assistants.

There will also be a photo copier available
for use. The Amherst Campus will
eventually have an undergraduate library to
share one of the two expected major
facilities, Dr.Szekely indicated.
Dr. Szekely needs volunteers for an
undergraduate advisory committee for
the
library to meet regularly to discuss
problems and policies. All interested
students should call 831-3414 or
831-3416.
The schedule from Monday until
December 22 is as follows:
Monday Thursday 8 a.m. 2 aan.
8 a.m. midnight
Friday
9 a.m. midnight
Saturday
2 p.m. 2 a.m.
Sunday
Summing up his thoughts about the new
undergraduate library, Dr. Szekely said:
“When I first came here, there was nothing.
Now we have a library.”

�Williams’ controversial court
Shots at Stony Brook case ends with his acquUm
-A sniper fired seven bullets
the ground floor dorm
room of an Irving College
resident at the State University
at Stony Brook last week. No
one was hurt in the incident.
David Lever, a 24-year-old
mathematics graduate student
was in bed at 3:30 a.m. when
he was awakened by the sound
of a bullet piercing his
window. He heard two more
shots shortly after. Mr. Lever
quickly crawled out of his
room and called Campus
Security. Thirty-five minutes
later, Suffolk County Police
arrived on campus. During this
time, the gunmen apparently
fled.
into

Police said they were
studying the case and had no

other information except that
given them by Mr. Lever and
other residents of the ball. Mr.
Lever had no idea why anyone
would want to shoot him and
said the gunman who fired was

crazy
“some
probably
person.” Only five bullets were
recovered by the police. Three
entered the room through the

window, one hit the aluminum
screen framing, and, one hit the

Legal Dope

Clark Gym, and lecadedseeinghim atCityCowl on

Black Student Union President Larry Williams
was acquitted in Buffalo City Court Tuesday on
charges of harassment and resisting arrest. The
incident began on October 25, when Mr. Williams
was stopped two Modes from campus on a routine
license check by Campus Security officers.
According to Mr. Williams, the arresting officer,
Gary Kalisz, accused him of using verbally abusive
language during the search. After showing the officer
his license, registration and insurance card, Mr.
Williams maintained, he was grabbed by the Security
man, “who tried to flip me.” He was then
handcuffed and taken to Precinct 16, where he was
booked.
During Tuesday’s trial, the District Attorney’s
office was admonished by the judge for introducing
improper testimony which related to an incident Mr.
Williams was involved in as a minor. One observer
noted that these records were supposed to be in a
closed file, and there was uncertainty as to how
much information was obtained by the prosecutor.
Referring to Campus Security, Mr. Williams
commented; “This has been one of numerous
attempts where they tried to discredit me through
student and city courts. I feel this incident was a
clear case of harassment.”

The Court of Appeals has established regulations permitting the
study of law in a law office, in conjunction with at least one year of
law school, that when complied with, qualifies one to take the Bar
Examination. (The provisions of the laws in N.Y.S. governing
internships have been tightened this year, despite the recognition across
the nation of the inadequacy of the legal system’s capacity to meet the
widespread trend towards ‘‘law’ and order.”). Now iiftfcew York State,
one must attend “a duly approved law school as a matriculated student
for at least one year.” :Fhen, if you determine that law school'is not
fulfilling your educational needs or is inconsistent with one or all of
your principles, social or political, you can “pull-up stakes.” Often the
decision is necessitated by. econoinics;JaW school is very costly and
financial aide is scarce. At that time, when you have made such a
decision, check out the provisions of section 53 of the Judiciary Law.
If you decide that clerkship is the route for you, the next step is to
find a firm that will employ you. You must be employed in a law
office, under the direction of an attorney, for a continuous three-year
period during regular business hours. At a glance, this seems very rigid,
but in practice it can be rather flexible. You would have to file a
simple, one-page document, known as a certificate of commencement,
with the Court of Appeals and you are certified for clerking. If at any
time the firm that you are employed by folds, you simply follow the
same procedure with your next employer. Depending, upon the firm
you are employed by, as a clerk, you can do anything short of
representing someone in court or dispensing legal advice. The economic
benefits of this program are rather obvious, but more importantly,
clerking permits the opportunity to witness the legal process,
first-hand. Your involvement in the system, therefore, provides an
enriching component to your classroom knowledge. This dimension of
realism is invaluable to one lost amongst the endless volumes of
“legalese.” The extra year put into .the clerkship, foqr years as opposed
to three years of law school, is compensated'by the aforementioned
factors, mainly, remuneration and actual participation.
The “clerkship” route does require strong discipline to
satisfactorily prepare for the Bar Exam that must be passed before you
can be licensed to practice law. Past applicants to the Bar that have
clerked with no law school experience (no longer possible under the
new law), have sought other people in similar positions and have
formed study (groups, led by a willing attorney, or have audited law
school classes when possible, and have done a great deal of cramming as
preparation prioir to taking the Bar Exam.
Careful thought should be exercised before pursuing the clerkship
route. It is important to understand how you intend to utilize, in a
thorough and socially meaningful way, the skills you will acquire as an
attorney. If you would like to check the Judiciary Law or to discuss
the problems touched upon in this brief discussion, stop by the Student
Legal Aid Clinic, Room 340 Norton Hall, during the regular business
hours.

other flavors “stick” to it, and subsequently soybean
protein must be literally drowned in gravy or

used. Long cooking times are not recommended
because any flavor the manufacturer managed to
“make stick” will be dissolved. Overcooking will
make a soy protein product so tough and dried out
that it simply will not be edible.

than ten years ago, many farmers
considered the soybean merely a cover crop, to be
planted and then plowed under to restore the soil
Today, however, soybeans are in great demand both
at home and abroad, and prices have soared from
$2.25 a bushel to as high as $12 a bushel during
periods of greatest demand. American farmers grow
85% of the world’s supply of soybeans.
Soybeans are in demand primarily for cattle,
hog and poultry feed, because they are richer in
protein than any other feed sold at a comparable
price. Herds of these animals have increased
tremendously throughout the world in the last five
years, especially in the United States, Australia and

The soybean originated over 4000 years ago in
China and the Chinese still devour vast quantities of
soybean curd, which they call “meat without
bones.” Soybeans are remarkably high m protein
(soybean meal is 44% protein) and a sixty-pound
bushel yields about eleven pounds of oil and 47
pounds of meal, with only two pounds lost in the
processing. Most of the oil goes into cooking oil,
margarine and shortenings, while the soybean meal is
fed almost exclusively to livestock and poultry.
However, the soybean is slowly but surely finding its
way into many human diet* as well. Nutritionists are
looking to it as an answer to the worlds protein

Cortland Gay Service to be
allowed meetings on campus
Homosexuals are still struggling for their rights
at the State University College at Cortland (SUCC).
In a recent controversy, SUCC President Robert
Jones failed in his attempt to prevent Cortland Gay
Services (CCS) from using campus facilities for their
meetings.
Allowing such use could “place me in an
untenable position,” explained Dr. Jones. He based
his position on New York State law which prohibits
“consensual sodomy,” defined as “sexual contact
between persons not married to each other
consisting of contact between penis and anus; mouth
and penis; and mouth and vulva.” Another law holds
State University of New York (SUNY) Presidents
accountable for the misuse of State funds on their
campuses.
Position reversed
Dr. Jones reversed his position on November 5
after receiving a legal opinion from the SUNY
Counsel’s office advising him to allow Cortland Gay
Services to use the desired facilities.
The purpose of CGS is “to increase knowledge
and understanding at Cortland College,’’ admitted
President Jones. “It allows open membership to all
students, faculty and staff regardless of sex and
sexual orientation.”
However, his original decision would only have
allowed CGS “freedom of speech and assembly.”
The only distinction was between “permission and

assignment,” explained Dr. Jones in refusing to allow
the use of campus rooms to the group while
permitting them the right to assemble and distribute
literature.
Dr. Jones defended his original stance by
drawing an analogy between a situation where he
would not stop a person from shooting someone in
his office and one in which he would order someone
to fire the gun. In the first instance there would be
no legal responsibility, while in the second, he would
be held legally accountable. He felt he would be held
liable if he took an active part in allowing CGS to
use campus facilities.
Still opposed
Claims that Dr. Jones has adopted his position
in response to three pending lawsuits were denied by
Student Senate President Larry Summers: “Dr.
Jones was opposed to Gay Lib on campus even after
the issue became moot [after the receipt of the legal
opinion]
However, a lawsuit to prohibit the use of state
facilities by Gay Liberation groups is being initiated
by the State Taxpayers Association (STA). No
representatives of that group could be contacted for
comment.

A screening and vaccination
program for rubella will be
initiated on campus under the
supervision of A1 Campagna,
Health Care Division Director of
Sub-Board I.
Rubella, also known as
German measles and the three-day
measles, is a contagious disease
that is very mfld in adults.
However, if a pregnant woman
contracts it during the first three
months of pregnancy, she may
have a spontaneous abortion or
her child might be still bom or
congenitally defective.
The service, available free of
charge to students, staff, faculty
and their families, is the result of
a new attitude towards providing
campus health care. “Health care
should be delivered rather than
people coming to get it,” said Mr.
Campagna. It is “foolish for
people to take a chance especially
when we offer this service for
free,” he added.
The program began with a
general .pre-registration drive
intended to give Sub-Board an
idea of how much equipment will
be needed for the actual tests.

explained.
It is estimated that 17 to 20
per cent of the adult population is
succeptible to rubella. “There is
no cure for it,** Mr. Campggna
said. “Therefore, we must stress
prevention.” Although rubella
drives usually receive ah
overwhelmingly female response,
the contagious nature of die
disease makes it just as important
for men to be vaccinated as
women. “It is important for the
male to assume some of the
responsibility for disease
prevention,** said Mr. Campagna.
He urges everyone to take
advantage of this program to help
save lives.

Self-inflicted crisis

by Barry Kaplan

After using it to combat his political troubles for over a
year. President Nixon is employing his favorite weapon
to obscure the avalanche of problems now
rhetoric
threatening to bury this nation.
Only the man who speaks of peace in Vietnam, where
sporadic war is now building toward full-scale mobilization,
could describe the current energy crisis as temporary. Only
this master of double-talk could promise "tough, strong
action" and propose such half-hearted measures as closing gas
stations on Sunday. The President has yet to take either the
necessary immediate steps or initiate longer-term plans to
develop alternative sources of energy.
Even if there had been no Middle East war and no Arab
oil embargo, there would still be an energy crisis; the
diminishing world oil supplies and the rising industrial
demand dictate a continuing squeeze. Why, then, didn't the
Administration foresee this trend? The answer, as Supreme
Court Justice William O. Douglas told a campus audience
Tuesday, is that the energy crisis is "self-inflicted." Oil
conglomerates, which also own the coal and gas companies,
refuse to report on their supplies, maintaining a fuel

Britain’s star rose in the horizon along with France,
and it has been these powers, along with their
European neighbors, that have charted the waters of
international power politics. In this century we have
witnessed the revival of Russian power, and only
recently realized that China again will soon be a
major power in world politics.
In this picture of rising and falling great powers,
it has always been difficult for most contemporary
observers to notice when a star was rising or when
one was in the process of falling. Europe, with
England, France and Germany, always seemed to
strut upon the pages of history; threatening,
blustering and posturing as their continuous power
struggles devoured the lives of countless millions.
Now, their time is over! Although most diplomats
have realized that Europe’s significance has declined
greatly since World War I, the craven capitulation of
these former powers has shown the rest of the world
how low they really have descended.
These former powers, now allied in the
Common Market, have shown their haste to please

countries, and could possibly result in new directions
in the future.

friends and allies by blackmailing them with an item
that is as “necessary as bread,” do they really think

lifestyles which would be beneficial to the American

If the Arabs did this ten years ago, the European
powers would have invaded their oil fields and seized

countries refuse to comply, will the Arabs cut off all

capitulated to Arab demands and renounced their

confrontation, there is no doubt that -the Arabs
decision has confirmed the declining position of
Europe in world politics. It is also an action that will
ironically result in a massive attempt by most
oil-dependent countries to find alternate sources ot

mutilated, a matching number stumbling through the

Across the country, slaughter became
commonplace. The dike was broken, and the river
contained Richard Speck, his knife slicing nurses in
Chicago, Charles Whitman carrying his rifle to the
tower in Austin; Charles Manson’s savage family
crawling through the bushes in California, to rip and
destroy. The numbers escalated. How many people
was Juan Corona convicted of killing? How many
damaged boys were pulled from the sand of Houston
and Galveston? Three young crazies killed 19 people
in California, and it is a two-day story in the
newspapers. In New York,- 2000 are killed every

Intramural irregularity
To the Editor.

As a former referee I can criticize something
that is terribly wrong in intramural football, for
those who cannot see it. On Monday, the playoffs
began and Brian Manfre, one of the three people in
charge of the referees, played for one of these teams.
Manfre proceeded to intimidate the referees into
making bad calls and being afraid to call others. The
referees for intramurals are not outstanding, but for
$2 an hour they do their job as well as possible. All
semester long referees played on teams. Manfre and
the others have attempted to keep away from the
officials during gametime. On Monday, Manfre
continuously attacked the officials while his team
failed to put together an offense. Of course the refs
were intimidated; Manfre kept telling them what a
poor job they were doing. His behavior left much to
be desired. Manfre provided a terrible example of
leadership in order to get to the refs; 1 didn’t care
who won. In this case, it’s a matter of how the game
was played. This letter might evoke responses from
the referees of the game and even Manfre’s
teammates; I just think that Manfre should have used
discretion and let his team decide how the officials
were doing. Either the people in charge of intramural
referees should not participate or they should
criticize the refs for doing their mediocrejob.
Thank you.

Editorial policy is determined by the Editor-in-Chief

Another Thanksgiving and 10 years gone. Gangs
in the South Bronx drag 13 year-old girls away and
rape them repeatedly. Nixon is on TV, shouting to
America: “I’m not a crook!” And adding that it
might not be bad if Air Force One crashes, because
“then they wouldn’t have to impeach.”
I know all that was wrong with the Kennedy
Administration; how Kennedy was a cold warrior,
how the Bay of Pigs set up a lot of other criminal
acts; how the first steps into Vietnam came under
Kennedy; how it was Kennedy who hired Johnson,
Rusk, MacNamara, Bundy, Rostow and the others. I
know that Kennedy was timid in confronting
Congress over civil rights and poverty, and that he
did not do what he really could have done during his
thousand days.
*

*

*

But, hey, wow, did I feel better about being an
American when John F. Kennedy was President. His
press conferences were fine things to watch, full of
irony and wit, and the spontaneity of a confident
man. He was comfortable in his body, and made all
who watched him feel more graceful, more full of
possibility, somehow glad to be around, in America,
in a time of ascendancy.
It could not last. The darkness came up and
overwhelmed the day. Debased, empty men now rule
the nation; the Congress swoons in cowardice. Every
day, Richard Nixon walks through our skulls, jn his
plodding mediocre style, defensive and dangerous,
lashing out, pleading innocence, leader of the most
corrupt administration in the nation’s history. In the
future, there is only more cowardice, debasement,
lawlessness and murder. Another Thanksgiving, and
10 years gone. Excuse me if there is nothing this
year for which to be thankful.

Non-sexist advisement
To the Editor

1 am writing this letter to correct a few errors in
Wednesday’s story regarding the “Students Stand On
Arming.”

The article quoted me as saying that the report
was unworkable since it did not provide security for
the Amherst Campus. It then goes on to say
“However allowances for Amherst were added to the
sub-committee’s final recommendation.”
What my response to Dr. Ketter does say is that

“The recommendations make provisions for

two

guns per shift, not specifically, addressing the fact
that the security force is responsible for protecting
three different campuses.” That statement is made
because, contrary to the impression given by the
story, the only mention of this problem in the
sub-committee report is a statement that says “We
recognize the growth in population of the North

Campus may require
modification of this
recommendation in the future.”
The objection stated in my reply was not to the

lack of security it provided for Amherst, but rather
to the previous vague, open-ended statement that
could suddenly change a two gun recommendation
to a four or six gun recommendation.
Another mistake falsely attributed to me is the
make up of the security force. The security force has
a total of five (5) investigators who work almost
exclusively during the day, not five (5) per shift.
where the “two

An adequate reading of our statement and of
the arming guidelines could have eliminated these
errors from what was otherwise a real good story.

Friends, foreigners, foes alike. We are all
involved in a fine ideologically advanced university
where each day it is possible to enjoy a new learning
experience offered only by UB. Take for example
the experience I have recently had which I will share
with all of you.
You see, it all started with a girl (lovely, 1 may
add), and a housing room contract and me. I was
going through my normal daily routine of working
(soft, easy desk job), attending my one course a day,
socializing with UB’s lovelies, and getting a bit
“wacked” out in the interim, when this previously
mentioned girl (i.e. woman) asked me to marry her.
Well, I wasn’t doing anything special that day and as
I mentioned she was quite lovely, so I quickly
accepted. She was wildly enthusiastic at my response
and not because of my blue eyes and endearing
maturity. You see I had just solved her problem. My
“I do” was all that was needed for her to check the
appropriate box entitled, “MARRIAGE” on the
University Housing’s “reasons to break housing
contract.” It is not enough to simply ask to relieve
oneself of the burden of living in the dorms. That
doesn’t make cents$ to this University. Personal
choice and desire doesn’t matter once you have
signed on that dotted line. Woe be it if there are a
few empty beds in the dorms! Empty beds mean

reference. This is the same logic that allows placing
three students in a room designed for two under the
guise of different costs for the unlucky three. This is
what makes cent$ to them (who is “them”?). True,
it does set a terrible precendent to allow students to
live where they choose. After all, if they allow
everyone to escape from the housing contract,
everyone will escape. And that doesn’t make cent$
to our progressive school. It is much better to have
students living where they don’t want to, so that
everyone is happy. Right?
And that gets me back

to my impending
marriage. 1 can’t decide whether to wear my blue

work shirt with the snaps or the one with the
buttons. But what’s this? She is telling me it doesn’t
matter! We’ll go through everything except the work
shirt and the “I do.” Oh, 1 get it, we get married but
not married married. That makes sense. I mean after
all, why would you want to get out of one contract
to go right into another one (marriage, that is).
Oh yes, by the way fellas, when I said
everything except the work shirt and “I do,” I meant
it. It was awfully tough to decide though whether to
consummate (and that’s not the soup our “contract”
in Niagara Falls or in some low cost housing project
with Norton looking in).

�A racist arrest?

No show

To the Editor.

Editor ’s note: This letter is a complaint about
Freddie Hubbard’s failure to show up for a
scheduled concert the week before Thanksgiving.

After a three-hour trial in City Court Nov. 27,
Larry Williams (the BSU President) was found NOT
GUILTY of all the charges (harassment and resisting
arrest) brought against him by U.B. campus cop
Gary Kalisz. Kalisz and another campus cop with a
dog pulled over Larry’s car off campus just after
Larry and 40 other BSU members confronted
administrators in Hayes Hall demanding the long
delayed E.O.P. checks for 238 students.
Kalisz claimed in court that he “thought Larry
was driving without a license” (even though Larry
had, weeks earlier, shown the campus police his
license, and asked them to stop “checking him).
During the license check, according to Kalisz, Larry
suddenly started swinging at him, thus forcing him
to throw Larry to the ground, handcuff and arrest
him, while the other cop stood on top of Larry.
Larry and another witness explained what really
that Kalisz told Larry he “had a big
happened
mouth” (Kalisz had been in Hayes Hall during the
BSU confrontation just hours earlier) and then,
failing to provoke Larry to a fight, he grabbed Larry
and threw him to the ground. Kalisz’s lies were so
inept (for instance, he said Larry struck first with his
right hand, but Larry, quite inconveniently, turns
out to be left-handed), and he was so visibly nervous
on the witness stand that Judge Roberts was forced
to choose between ruling Not Guilty or blowing
what’s left of the court’s facade of “justice” in front
of the numerous spectators supporting Larry.
Defense witnesses also brought out that cop
Kalisz is a long standing racist: Once Kalisz brought
phony charges against Larry and when the student
judiciary didn’t go along with him, he blew up and

eyes to tell the difference. Kirk, who is blind, refuses
to play with white musicians, and occasionally walks
out if there are any whites in the audience. Please
don’t tell him how much I love his music; he might
retaliate.
After Hubbard did not play, the students,
mostly black, filed out of the gymnasium merely
mumbling. 1 guess once you have been ripped off by
the big white Dick you don’t mind be ng ripped off
by a few little black ones, especially when they are

Well, at least they mumbled. I thought I even

Williams told me Hubbard had not been paid and
that their lawyer was acting on the matter. I’m sure
the lawyer will get paid, so that must be where my
money is going; to some lawyer who may buy some
more Arthur Fiedler albums with it. Williams also
stated that no stubs were returned to ticket holders
because they are passed out the windows to
freeloaders. Does this explain why I was refused
stubs at the end of the program, when it was first
mentioned that the main attraction had not shown.
Williams said that the profit would remain with the
BSU, and when questioned if there would be any
sort of reparations, such as a free concert, he stated,
“Maybe. Click.”

I would like to point out some inaccuracies in
the article “Emergency Services Tested in Fake
Crisis.” First a minor point, there were 36 victims
not 35. Also the simulation was originally planned
by the VA hospital and the school then joined in.

The neighboring communities and all emergency
personnel were informed before hand of the
simulation. Another thing was that several people
were killed, not just two and others suffered
additional injuries because of improper attention.
The most ill-reported item was the quote that
the city was void of all ambulances. Places such as
LaSalle ambulance and other private ambulance
services, and hospitals such as Mercy, were on call in

Note;

I would like to respond to your editorial
entitled “The Right to Choose.” The writer claims
that “Pro-Life” groups wish to impose their morality
on others and calls them ’’self-righteous.” I am also
anti-abortion and admit that I would like to impose
this bit of morality on others. But this is my reason:
I feel that a fetus is a human. I feel as if all the
aborted babies are helpless brothers of mine, and I
imagine that they want me to help them. I am
compelled by conscience to fight for these lives.
If my views are wrong in your eyes, argue with
me. But why do you refuse my right to fight for my
ideas? Why call me “self-righteous” when you know

for life

It seems to me that any article defending the
validity of abortion (including yours
Nov. 14)
inevitably avoids one issue
the inherent huitianky
of the unborn fetus. Obviously, you must avoid this
issue to support your position, since to fact it can
only lead to one conclusion.
If you have taken high school biology, you
know that even at the moment of conception, the
human embryo contains all the genetic material
necessary to define its individuality. You also know
that within a few short weeks, the fetus has already
developed life functions. It is impossible and illogical
to deny that a human fetus, at any stage of
development, lacks humanity.

Once this fact is recongnized, all arguments in
support of abortion are superfluous. Since a human
fetus is an individual life, to end its natural
dvelopment is wrong. Call me emotional if you must,
but it is murder.

in a nation with a skyrocketing birthrate. Abortion,
ideally, should be a last resort if other means of
contraception fail, but the last resort and its
emotional trauma will be more frequently necessary
if preventive measures are not encouraged and taken.
It is indeed ironic that these groups call
themselves “pro-life.” In arguing, as Right to Life
does, that “potential life has more rights than actual
life,” it becomes obvious what little regard is held
for a human being who has grown to maturity, has a
family, responsibilities, and committments. To state
that a fetus several weeks old has more rights is
absurd.
It is not a selfish attitude to want children only
when they will be loved and cared for and can grow
into loving and caring adults. That should be every
child’s birthright. We’re pro-life, too, you see, and
we view your stand as totally contradictory to your
misleading titles.
We urge strong opposition to any attempts to
amend the Supreme Court ruling and deny respect

Responsible

We’re pro-life too
These people who call themselves “pro-life”
should stop and reconsider what respect for human
life truly means.
It means that each child deserves the right to be
born to parents who will love and want him and
deeply care that his potential to contribute to and
save this society will be developed.
It means that we must respect life enough to
realize that this small planet is polluted and crowded
and will only hold so many more people before we
committ mass suicide.
It means that being respectful of life, we do not
want to see lives shattered by birth rather than
enriched, or see children venting emotions of hate
and resentment rather than learning to love.
The Catholic Church in particular apparently
cares more about the quantity of life rather than the

yelled that he’d “get” Larry in City Court. On
another occasion, Kalisz threatened Larry and other
black students that one day there would be a
confrontation between black students and Campus
Security and when it came he, Kalisz, would “come
running with bells on my shoes.”
Racists like Gary Kalisz and James Britt are
deliberately kept on the force at UB to harass black
students, especially when they fight back against
things like the delayed E.O.P. checks. Repression of
black students is an attack on ALL of us. The
delayed E.O.P. checks are only the spearhead for
budget cuts and tuition hikes that are wrecking all of
our lives.
It’s the UB administration that is GUILTY of
racist harassment that has cost Larry Williams a
$1000 lawyer’s fee which still needs to be paid, and
UB should pay it!! Let’s get our organizations like
SA, GSA, etc., to demand that UB pay up. And in
and students and faculty
the meantime the SA,
individually should donate to the Defense Fund (c/o
BSU., Box 0, Norton Union). If the SA can afford to
give Lester Maddox $1500, it can give money to
fight racism too.
Now more than ever we need to unite
black
and fight for 1) no racist budget cuts
and white
and tuition hikes; 2) no guns for campus cops
no
more racist harassment Fire Kalisz and Britt; 3) no
racist textbooks which “justify” racists like Ketter,
Kalisz &amp; Co.
As communists, we say it’s going to take a
violent revolution to totally wipe out racism, budget
cuts and worms like Kalisz. It’s going to take unity
of all races of workers and students. But the time to
start fighting racism at UB is NOW!

Finally, I feel that in good conscience I must do
what I can to end abortion in our society. Abortion
is yet another example of the insensitivity and
un-humanness that so characterize our society and
our times. My horror over abortion is no more
emotional or righteous than my, horror over My Lai

by Erich E. Rassow
Spectrum Art Critic

Two thoughts come to mind when looking at
Hryvniak now
being displayed in the Music Room of Norton
Union. The first involves that aspect of recognition
which depends on stored memorizations In
contradistinction td the visual implications of the
first, the second thought is,
slid: T
"Memories tend to be remains, not of past
sensations, but past verbalizations".
Experiments have been done *ith the scientific
purpose of exacting a mechanism for determining
how we not only recognize classifications of things
but also how we are able to clearly differentiate the
particular class as we do when we distinguish one
person from another.
The most common dilemma cajoining verbal and
resolution
occurs
when
a
imagistic
"face-reconstruction artist" must sketch a missing
person or wanted criminal from the collected
information of witnesses
Typically the artist must show the witness
pictures of various facial structures (eyes, nose,
mouth, etc.) and piece together a total portrait from
the visual identification selected. This picture is
modified during its construction by verbal
commentary which becomes much more, rather a
para-language of intuition, until a fair pictorial
representation is reached.
the photographic exhibit by Joseph

summate to a verbal means of recognition,
Implicit in Joseph Hryvniak's photographs is
thj$ process of gradation, but it's explicit verbal
corollary is not at all clear because the dissolves and
other techniques present an image which we identify
yyjth things outside the process he works in. They are
images, abstractions, which refer to designs,
accidental associations and muted impressions which
do not as Rosalind Krauss says "map themselves
onto tf, e reality" of the materials
Mneumonic image

They are separated by a veneer of reference
which is traditional to the typical photograph not to
the advances he is attempting to make. That is, he is
moving things around to create an image which
alludes to a memory of other things.
As an example of this kind of work, look at the
small drawing by Sol LeWitt, lines from the right.
It's simplicity is not the affection we gain from a
smile or an illusion of unadorned "trueness" or the
small detail which opens the eye to a myriad of
associations. It's simplicity is the self-evidence of the
lines which "trail" from right to left. Its logic
unfolds right on the paper as our eyes trace the
outcome and intention of the "squiggly" lines at the
same time.
The work is generated from qualities inherent in
the penclLand paper. The work is external to any
hidden reference; verification is immediate and the
strength of any art has always been in the immediacy
of experience we gain.
Joe Hryvniak's photographs were chosen from
an earlier period in his art development and probably
initiated his more innovative film applications. In all,
what was presented in the Music Room set the stage
for ideas which demand discussion. In that light, he
merits criticism of the most serious nature.
.

Eye-witness blues
The problem is that few people, unless they are
trained, can
verbalize satisfactory
specially
appearance descriptions. Even experts, who can
describe facial structure by pointing to similar
features on other portraits (i.e.
the thin aquiline
nose of John Lennon), usually present only a
—

far-fetched likeness of a person.
To define image recognition, a series of
retrogradive techniques are used on an image to

Lotsa Luck is actually a Betty Crocker TV pilot
recipe card that was never taste-tested or improved
before it was put on the air.
The creators of the series must have believed
that by meshing the recipes of various past hits,
they'd come out with a blue ribbon winner too.
They combined a bus driver's uniform from The
Honeymooners, an unemployed live-in relative from
AH In The Family, and the writers of That Girl to
concoct a main course called Lotsa Luck. What they
lacked was lotsa luck. What they gained was a show
which appears weekly with at least one table filled
with food.
The show is about a lower-middle-class family
comprised of a mother, grown son and daughter, and
the daughter's husband. The son, Stanley (played by
Dorn DeLuise), is the sole supporter of the family.
He works in the lost and found department of a bus
company, having been previously promoted from a
driver.
The characterizations are poor, although it is
difficult to tell whether this is the creators' fault or
the actors'. The players overemphasize their accents
and end up dragging their lines. They are always
dressed in the same outfits, forcing them to appear
Ozzie's Girls
(Rick-less and Dave-free)

oh, how we just love nostalgia.
Nostalgia
People, supposedly fed up with the 70's have turned
to the good old 50's (McCarthy, Korea, Nixon
what a lovely era!) for music, movies, and now
television.
Remember when you were just a little tot, back
in the late 50's and early 60's? Once a week, Ozzie
and Harriet delighted us with its "homey" comedy.
How cay we ever forget Ricky and David Nelson, so
blah on the tube? They had us wondering whether or
not they were like that in real life (we have since
then discovered they were). And what about Wally,
that fat buffoon, who looked more like 35 than
college-age and whose jokes brought roaring laughter
from the electronic audiences and lowly grunts of
disgust from us? Wow, what a mind-blower of a
show!
Ricky and David Nelson have departed but
Ozzie ,and Harriet linger on. Harriet, discontented
with knitting sweaters and buying groceries, and
Ozzie, fidgeting because he had nothing at all to do,
decided to revive the show. Ricky and David were
gone, so the Nelsons brought in two college girls, one
white, the other black, to live with them. A touch of
nostalgia, a touch of modern relevancy; call it
Ozzie's Girls and you've got a hit!
How bad can you get, Oz? Good comedy? The
Brady Bunch seems like the Marx Brothers compared
to this show. Brenda Sykes and Susan Sennet appear
—

—

as role players rather than authentic people. For
example, Arthur, Stanley's unemployed
brother-in-law, is always seen in a bathrobe. His wife
is perpetually in hair rollers.
These are fine getups for a Schick Hot Comb
commercial or one for Lady Clairol Electric Curlers,
but not for "real" people. After all. what woman
wears curlers when she sits at a kitchen table all day,
has nowhere to go, and has a hudband who can't be
separated from his robe?
The show is witty and often has creative plots.
Several weeks ago, the family was forced to sell its
cemetery plot to the city because the lot interfered
with the new highway construction plan. As a result,
their father's remains had to be moved to a new site.
A controversy resulted: should they buy new sites
for all five members of the family, or should they
allow Arthur to will his body to science and-use his
plot money to buy a color TV? As this documents,
The show moves
the stories are often unusual.
very quickly because the writing is sprinkled with
puns and an occasional chuckle.
However, the Lotta Luck recipe is lacking the
necessary seasonings. Unbelievable characters make
any situation unbelievable which, in turn, makes the
show unbelievable and unpalatable. The net result is
a television show which, come January, will be
scratched from the NBC menu.

out of place here. They seem to be thinking to
themselves: "How would Ricky or David have acted
in a scene like this? Just as dumb, I guess." Ozzie
and Harriet seem to think they're living legends and
all they have to do is smile and the audience will go
bananas. Sour grapes maybe, but no bananas.
Ozzie produces and directs the show. It's easy to
see, now, why he never had a job. The plots (if there
are any) are horrible and the only climax occurs
during the commercials when you try to solve the
mysterious question of why you're watching the
show in the first place.

True,

the

Nelsons

had

little

time for

preparation. ABC called them a few minutes before

the new season and said, “Say, Oz. we need some
junk to fill up the Friday 7:3D8 P.M. time slot. We
want your show. We don't have a chance in the
ratings so we thought we'd call you" Rumors have it
that Oz went out and bought a new cardigan sweater
to celebrate.

Seriously, fans, the Nelsons are not actors. They
are not comedians. They are just two warm, friendly
people, who would be better off sitting in their won
living room and watching T.V., rather than acting on
it.

A possible thought for salvation: ABC could try
putting Ozzie's Girls on Sunday mornings,

sandwiched between church masses. On second
thought, forget it. The competition would be too
tough.

�Spectrum Billy Cobhem (Atlantic)

Zappa it right: all this guru stuff it a lot of shit
flown in from the east. More of the ot' religious jive
all it ever gave us,
that extinguishes and pacifies
besides too title sex and fear of masturbating
born with just a body that thinks and breathes and
hears on its own, the only choice of action we
innately have is whether we'll jerk off when we're
horny it's fun and we always carry it around, pure
entertainment that religion immediately bottles up
till we wonder about having a good time of the
planet instead of doing it .. . well, the only positive
thing it gave us was some mighty fine gospel singers,
all that funky sex wailing out ... now today is
electricity and the sounds that escape the temples
are birds of fire being kicked in the ass by Cobham's
funky drums.
I was at a concert last year on LSD and Jerry
Goodman was doing a solo but I couldn't figure
anything out so I closed my eyes and became
absorbed by the total sound and vibrations. As if
from a quiet planet I first heard the music and
understood its extension of silence without caring
no labels, music ain't
about the components
technicians and twenty years of study, it's noise.
There isn't good noise and bad noise, no more than
there's good colors, or bad blades of grass. There's
this little guy following me around telling me Joni
Mitchell's lousy ’cause she always uses demented
fourth chords, but she sounds fine to me, so chalk
up another reason for pleasure.
('ll get to Cobham yet. When I was young my
father would beat my ass with his leather belt cause I
was always owing my teacher's conduct. We both
knew I really wasn't much different from the other
students, but I had a reputation as a trouble-maker. I
think my teachers talked about me in the teachers'
room and drew lots not to have me as a student.
Occassionally the teacher of the smart class (6-1,
Room 212) got me and we've had 'em fooled for
years. My father, who's so puritanical I think he was
a virgin when he was married, said I had to accept
the fact that the world had labels and kept hitting
me in hopes that I wouldn't be one of them. It kinda
gave me a head start in realizing what nonsense labels
-

from all hit influences to make the album; I just
never dug tome of hit influences. He wrote all the
songs like those CTI albums he played on harmless
themes that you wait to end until the solos can
begin. Jan Hammer does some sounds I like and
there's a guitar player (Tommy Bolin) who pleases
me-Joe Farrel is there and Ray Barreto
I saw him
at Newport between Archie Shepp and the Art
ah, all of that is fill-up
Ensemble of Chicago)71
space for Cobham. He's he's he's rat-a-tat BOOM, a
machine with feelings, ke-BOOM, and he plays
electric drums, they really did it, and they even
skipped a few steps in the development and hooked
it up fb a moog, moog-amoog ka BOOM. Otherwise,
the album's not so great. You should catch Cobham
with the Mahavishnu Orchestra, even if McLaughlin
did make Goodman get a hair cut. I don't know who
first developed this drum style, maybe Jack
DeJonette, maybe Cobham, but there's now Lenny
White, who used to sound like Tony Williams, and
Alphonze Mouzon, and it's visual and alive and screw
all religion cause I never saw any priest make music
like Charley Parks.

(Atlantic)

This is Daryl Hall and John Oates' second
album. Their first one. Whole Oates, is one of the
very few albums that tried to reach a goal and made
it. Hall and Oates realized this and are now out to
reach a new goal.
Whole Oates is a mixture of folk and a bit of
rock in the purest form. It combines the fantasy of
life with the innocence of childhood in both the
music and lyrics.'lt is a relatively simple album, but
in this case, simple sure as hell doesn't mean bad.
Whole Oates is one of the sweetest, nicest, and
easiest to listen to albums of the past few years. It is
one of those very few albums that if you were not in
a mellow mood before you listened to it, you
certainly were after you finished.
Abandoned Luncheonette reminds me of a child
going through puberty. It's lost something
(innocence and some sweetness) but it's also gained
something (a new sense of awareness, and quite a bit
of complexity). It is much more slickly produced
than Whole Oates and the music isn't as sincere.
The first time I saw these guys in concert, it was
just Daryl Hall on keyboards and John Oates on
acoustic guitar. Once in a while they did a rocker
and were supported by a backup band, but this was
just as a change of pace. I saw them again a few
months ago and their hair was styled short (of
course, both of them are wearing superstar sunglasses
these days), and they were continually supported by
a backup band. As good as this backup band is (and
it really is fine), it still detracts from the simplicity
and purity of Hall and Oates' music.
The question is: Do you want some of the best
folk around or some good rock and roll? Well, I'll
tell you. if I were you, I'd take the folk. If you think
about it, there's so many damn good rock and roll
groups around today that we ought to let them
develop their talents instead of creating new ones.
Now think of a few really fine folk groups. See the
point? If Daryl and John play their cards right, they
just might turn into the Simon and Garfunkel of the
i
70's.
There are good cuts on this album. "Las Vegas
Turnaround", "She's Gone", and "Abandoned
Luncheonette" are really jazzy songs with Joe
Farrell playing fine alto and tenor sax. "Everytime I
Look At You" is a great rocker (but there are loads
of those nowadays) and so is "I'm Just A Kid (Don't
Make Me Feel Like A Man)". SO WHAT? The only
song on the album that gets me mellow is "Laughing
Boy." Marvin Stamm plays a really nice flugeihorn
on this cut and Hall's voice is astounding.
This album is reminiscent of the film The
Candidate. At the beginning of the movie, Robert
Bedford was as sincere as a person can be. After
deciding to run for senator and to run a simple,
straightforward campaign, he became less and less his
own man and more and more his campaign

However, the more he lost his own sincerity and
honesty, and started telling the people only what
they wanted to hear, the more the public accepted
him. Maybe at first Daryl Hall and John Oates are
going to give the public what it wants or what it
thinks it wants and then, when they start to gain a
following, return to their own rich style of folk.
Shit, I sure hope so. They've got what it takes to
turn a lot of people on to some awfully good folk

music.

opponents from the armed forces and drafting a
policy statement outlining Greece’s future course.
Government sources said the military leaders,
who opposed ousted President George
Papadopoulos’ limited attempts to moderate his
strongman regime, were expected to release the
policy report Wednesday.
Sources close to the new rulers said Brig. Gen.
Dimitrios loannides, the military police chief who
masterminded Sunday's coup, has completed a
shakeup of the armed forces.

Yacht mothballed to save gas
WASHINGTON (UPI)
The White House
indicated today the presidential yacht Sequoia
would be temporarily mothballed to conserve fuel,
but that President Nixon would continue to travel
“when it’s necessary.”
Deputy press secretary Gerald I. Warren said
that the yacht is undergoing “normal maintenance”
and will not be used “in the foreseeable future.” One
of the reasons, he said, was “the energy shortage.”
The Pentagon meantime said there was no truth
to a rumor that it would extinguish the eternal flame
that bums constantly atop the grave site of President
John F. Kennedy. He said the flame burns 2200
cubic feet of natural gas a month at a cost of $37.

Ford approved by Senate
Vice-Presidential nominee Gerald R. Ford was

His nomination is expected to win approval by the

The three opposing votes were cast by Senators
Thomas Eagleton, of Missouri, William D. Hathaway
of Maine and Gaylord Nelson of Wisconsin, all
Democrats.

The administration’s crisis strategy does call for an

Daylight Savings Time for two years
The House of Representatives passed a measure
putting the nation on daylight savings time in a move
to conserve energy. The vote was 311 to 88.
The bill was one of a series of measures
introduced by the president in order to conserve
energy. It is estimated the move will save 95,000
barrels of fuel a day or 3 percent of the nation’s
estimated energy shortage. Representative H R.

Regan: front runner
Sen. James L Buckley,
R-N .Y., agreed Wednesday with a statement
California Gov. Ronald Reagan is the Republican
Party’s conservative front-runner for the 1976
presidential nomination.
“That’s a fair statement,” the new York
conservative said in response to a question following
his weekly news conference in his office here.

said in describing Reagan, who many Republicans
and political observers feel is the party’s leading
contender for the nomination. “He’s qualified to
take on any responsibility,” said Buckley.
On other topics, Buckley described New York
Mayor John V. Lindsay, who switched from the
Republican party to the Democratic camp, as
potentially a “formiddable opponent” in the 1976
senatorial race. He said a Lindsay senatorial
candidacy would be “something to be concerned

Q. I have not paid my entire bill for tuition and fees yet. What
happens if I don’t get it paid before the end of the semester?
A: Your University bill must be paid before the end of the
semester otherwise you will be unable to register for courses for the
spring semester. Unless your account is cleared, the computer will
check-stop your registration. We suggest that you pay your bill
immediately to avoid having to register after everyone else with the
possible narrowing down of course choices due to classes being filled. If
you have ever been closed out of courses, you will be sure to get your
bill paid.
Q; When is the last day to drop a course?
A: Today, November 30, 1973 is the last day to drop

a

course

Q; When can I pick up registration materials?
A: The schedule is posted in various places, including Norton Hall
and Diefendorf. It goes by class and is alphabetical by last name. The
process will begin on Monday.
Q: Can non-recognized student groups make room reservations in
Norton Hall?
A: Technically, the answer is no. However, a student group can
receive
temporary recognition for six weeks until permanent
recognition is granted. In any case, for the complete information we
suggest that you go to Room 223 in Norton Hall.

Q: I am thinking of taking a year off from school at the end of this
semester. What should I do?
A: There is no official leave of absence from SUNYAB. You must
fill out a resignation form which is available from your DUS advisor. It
must be signed by your advisor and taken to Admissions and Records.
If you are going to return, fill out a Special Action Request form at the

16-

A: The answer is complicated and depends on your individual case.
We recommend that you see your DUS advisor in Diefendorf. Your
academic advisor can discuss this with you and review courses you have

already taken, departmental requirements, prerequisites, etc.

Q: 1 need a letter of recommendation and, unfortunately, I did not
get to know any of my professors well enough to ask them for such a
favor. Is there any way of getting such a letter from the University?
A: Our first suggestion is that you see your academic advisor and
ask him or her. They are more familiar with your academic work. If
you don’t feel free
o do this then there is another alternative. Please
feel free to come to the Office of Student Affairs and Services in 201
Harriman. A member of the professional staff there will be glad to
interview you and to review your career at the University with you, and
then to write a letter of recommendation for you.
Q: If you take a semester off from school, does this count in the
eight semesters of the Regent's Scholarship?
A: You can get up to two years’ leave from school and still have
the Regents cover you for eight semesters. The two years does not have
to be taken all at one time, e.g. You may take off one semester now,
another semester two years from now, etc. This applies only to the
Regents Scholarship and not to the Regents Incentive because incentive
awards are granted on an annual basis. A simple letter to the Regents
Examination and Scholarship Center, 99 Washington Avenue, Albany,
New York 12210, should suffice. Be sure to include your scholarship
number and make a carbon copy of the letter for yourself in case there
is a problem.

Q: When will the Undergraduate Library open?
A: The Undergraduate Library will open December 3rd in

Diefendorf Annex. The facility will be open from December 3rd until
Saturday, December 22nd to provide additional study space. No books
or jouma s will be available. It will reopen for full service on
Wednesday, January I6th, 1974. The schedule until December 22nd is:

pvteon disturbances
ELMIRA, N.Y. (UP!) New York state police
-

have begun an investigation to determine whether
any criminal charges should be made in connection
with the second inmate distrubance in four days at
the Elmira Correctional Facility.
A statement issued by prison officials said 22
inmates and one prison guard received minor injuries
Monday during a one-hour disturbance involving
between 20 and 40 of the inmates at the
rnedtum-security facility.

The statement said the guard was injured when
he was hit by a weight thrown by one inmate at
another.

A Department of Correctional Services
spokesman said the altercation began while 130-200
of the facility’s 1100 inmates were taking a

recreational period.

High crimerate at SUNY
(CPS)
Persons attending the State University
at New York (SUNY) for-four full years have one
chance in two of being a crime victim, according to
figures compiled by Albany’s School of Criminal
Justice.
The high risk rate is due to a recent Upsurge in
reported criminal offenses this fall on the campus.
622 offenses have been reported so far this fall, a
30% increase over last year.
Police Director James Williams said some of the
increase may be attributed to more students
reporting thefts that would normally have been
unreported, and that they may be reporting thefts of
smaller items than before. “Simple minded people”
often reach the conclusion that “half the students
here are criminals,” but, in fact, much of the crime is
committed by transients from the surrounding

Winter signals the return of intercollegiate
basketball to Buffalo. And although it may not be
well known information, Buffalo has two basketball
teams; a vanity and a junior varsity.
This year’s junior varsity (JV) squad will
resemble the varsity in many ways. Its coach, John
Hill, is beginning his first year at the helin and only
one starter is returning to the squad. The varsity
faces similar problems.
At this writing. Hill had not selected his starting
lineup. He was impressed by several of the Bulls,
such as John Ruffino, the only returning starter
from last year’s JV team. Ruffino is a sophomore
guard who led Buffalo in scoring with 19.5 points
per game last year, and is “the team’s best outside
shooter," according to Hill. Ruffino, a native of
Buffalo, was also termed “the team’s best defensive
playerer.”
A possibility for the other guard slot is freshman
Tom Marable. “Marable is our best guard on the fast
break,” commented Hill. “He can really take it to
the basket.”

And that’s just the beginning.
Since the language barrier constitutes
the preponderate difficulty in succeeding at a foreign school, the Euroihed
program also includes an intensive
12 week medical and conversational
language course, mandatory for all
students. Five hours daily. 5 days per
week (12-16 weeks) the course is
given in the country where the student
will attend medical school.

Riding a two-game winning streak, the hockey
Bulls will play at home for the fifth and sixth times
this weekends Buffalo hosts RIT tonight and
Brock port tomorrow night.
These Bull opponents are among the weakest
members in ECAC Division II. RIT and Brockport
also compete in the Finger Lakes Collegiate Hockey
League, with the Golden Eagles the defending
champions.
The Tigers

are led by goaltender Marty
Teasoner, whose 60-save performance last season was
instrumental in RIT’s narrow 7-6 overtime loss at
Oswego. Reasoner was bombarded with 53 shots in
last year’s Buffalo 10-2 victory, and was KO’d in a
13-1 win at RIT last spring.
The Bulls lost two forwards during
pre-Thanksgiving action. Center Ron Maracle will
miss the remainder of the season due to ineligibility,
while left wing Tom Schratz will be out of action for
a month after suffering a knee injury against
Oswego.

“I got word from the admissions office about

Maracle,’* reported Wright. “An eligibility
check revealed that he was only carrying ten hours.
(Twelve is necessary to be a full-time student and
thus eligible.] Tom Schratz has a severely strained
medial ligament. His leg has been placed in a cast for
two to three weeks, apd then it’s a matter of
rehabilitation. Hopefully, he’ll be ready for the
(AIC) Tournament. If not, we’ll give him the extra
rest until we go to Lake Forest,” Wright added.
Following their loss to Clarkson before
Thanksgiving, Buffalo blanked Kent State 9-0 and
downed Oswego 8-6 at Twin Rinks. The Bulls had a
7-2 lead over Oswego with 9:14 to play, when the
Lakers yanked starting goaltender Pete Weimer in
favor of Steve Paluseo. Buffalo got off a shot on
Paluseo immediately, and one more during the rest
of the period, while Oswego took 24 at Bull
goaltender John Moore during the third stanza. A
successful penalty shot by the Bulls’ Andre Poirier
helped Buffalo build up a 4-1 first period lead. Tom
Farkas, who whitewashed Kent State, will face RIT
op Friday night, with Moore in goal against
Brockport on Saturday.

Scant practice hours

The Bulls have been having
some difficulty getting ready for
the season. Neither Schwartz nor
assistant coach Jules Goldstein are
full-time teachers at Buffalo. As a
result, practices are held at night
and are limited to just three hours
per week. Schwartz shouldered
some of the blame, explaining
that more and better training over
the last few weeks might have
resulted in better swordsmanship
by the Bulls. “We haven’t been
practicing hard enough,” he said

expected starters have not
practiced often enough. Forman,
who chooses the starters for each
meet, has indicated that good
attendance at practices is a
pre-requisite
for fencing in

competition. As a result, there has
been much confusion as to who
will be starting tomorrow in
Ithaca.
The epee competition figures
to be the Bulls’ forte this season.
Schwartz observed, “All
experienced men are fencing
epee.” Forman will be the number
one epee fencer, with Terry
Reisine leading off at foil and.
Steve Munz opening on sabre. The
team is young, with an abundance
of freshmen and sophomores. The
flatly.
general feeling is that this will be a
However, there also appears to rebuilding season even though

Cornell. Coach Sid Schwartz does
not appear too optimistic about
Buffalo’s chances against the Big
Red. He commented, “If there’s
an earthquake in Cornell and their
right arms fall off, we’ll have a
chance.” Last year, the Bulls were
overwhelmed by both Cornell’s
varsity and freshmen squads.
Schwartz was relatively
hopeful about the Bulls’ chances
for the remainder of the schedule,
Though he doesn’t expect Buffalo
to match last year’s 12-6 record,
he is confident that the Bulls will
win more than they lose. Captain
Howie Forman echoed Schwartz’s

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Although overshadowed by Watergate and the
Middle East crisis, the issue of amnesty is slowly
coming to the public’s attention.
A small but enthusiastic group of people
gathered at the United Methodist Church in
Kenmore last Wednesday to hear the amnesty issue
debated between J. Edward Cuddy and Richard
Scott. Dr. Cuddy, a professor of History at Rosary
Hill College, argued in favor of total, unconditional
amnesty for war resistors. Mr. Scott, a lawyer and
former captain in the Army, favored amnesty only
for those willing to perform alternate service.

Morality question
Dr. Cuddy’s argument centered around the war’s
morality. Most Americans have come to realize that
our involvement and activity in Indochina was of
debatable morality, Dr. Cuddy explained. Noting
that the legality of the war has been raised in many
circles, he asked; “Is it right to punish those who
believed the war was wrong several years ago?” He
strongly advocated total amnesty, arguing that the
best course of action would be to forget the
differences of the past and work constructively to
heal the wounds of the war.
Mr. Scott, who served a tour of duty with the
Army in Vietnam, argued that those who decided
not to fight in the war and took it upon themselves
to break the law rather than be inducted into the
Army should now be willing to pay the penalty for
their actions. References were made to past instances
of civil disobedience involving men like Martin
Luther King Jr. and Ghandi, who, Mr. Scott pointed
out, paid the price for their transgressions.
The issue of the war’s morality was the topic for
much of the debate. Neither Mr. Scott nor Dr.
Cuddy believed the war to be just, but they
disagreed on whether that fact should have any
bearing on the amnesty problem. Anyone who acted
illegally by avoiding induction into the service was
wrong in breaking the law, Mr. Scott maintained.
‘‘The morality of the war,” he said, “does not
change the fact that the law was broken.”
Weak Congress
Dr. Cuddy, together with many of those
attending the debate, discussed the legality of
American involvement in Southeast Asia. Mr. Scott
dismissed the argument of ai) illegal war by pointing
out that Congress'“had, "at all times, the power to
•

end the war, but never exercised the option.”
Both speakers made reference to amnesties
granted in the past. Some form of amnesty has been
granted after every war this country has fought. For
the most part, these pardons were conditional and
required the men to return to their units or perform
alternate service. Total amnesty was granted to Civil
War resisters, but not until 1899.
Historical precedent exists for the form of
conditional amnesty he advocates, Mr. Scott
concluded. Dr. Cuddy emphasized the difficulties
which has arisen from those limited measures,
stressing particularly tjie inequity of the review
board procedure to determine the fate of each
resistor. During the amnesty hearings after World
War II, 15,000 cases were reviewed with an average
of three and one-half minutes allotted for each case.

Displeasure with Nixon
The review board envisioned by Mr. Scott would
not determine each case on its own merits, but
rather serve to determine which cases would be
prosecuted further. This process would be designed
to find those who were unable to serve because
criminal charges were pending against them, and to
insure they do not reap the same benefits as those
who resisted the draft for moral reasons.
Mr. Scott is opposed to total amnesty because it
would imply that those who broke the law were
right. The system he envisions “would not be
punishing those who resisted,” he said. Instead, it
would only “exact the service due by law to the
country.” This viewpoint differs with the total
amnesty advocates who want the government to
forget the actions of those who dissented against
what they consider an immoral war.
The audience was receptive to both points of
view and raised many questions to both speakers.
Several people stated their displeasure with the
Nixon Administration, because while the audience
argued over various degrees of amnesty, President
Nixon and Congress did not even seem to be
seriously considering the issue.
Both men,;were questioned on the prospects of
success for the‘amnesty campaign; neither was overly
optimistic. As long as those in exile and facing
indictment insist they were right and the government
was wrong, there is little chance that they will be
granted amnesty, Mr. Scott believes. Dr. Cuddy
expressed his belief that the issue would be resolved
only when the American people were made more
aware of the problem and Congress was forced to
act.

Kleinhans

Spirited Doobie s wail
9

In a super-sonic melange of musical
pyrotechnics, the Doobie Brothers crossed the
vast wasteland of American and settled their
rollin’ bones into Kleinhans Music Hall last
Wednesday night. Hailin’ and wailin’ the different
contortions of China Grove: the not so mythical
land of super-bad weed and excessive mellow. The
Doobies were anything but mellow. In a blast of
wall-noise, they slashed through a spirited
collection of Doobie toons. Including their ode to
dirt—Jesus: admittedly not as good as the Byrds

Jesus Loves Us, yeah
version but good enough
he do, or was it sumthin’ like Jesus is just alright
for me. Suffice it to say that it was one helluva
evening, despite the weather and its resultant
bleahhhhh. Also appearing on the bill was the
delicate pianist, Billy Joel, who is no relation to
ex-Bills fullback Billy Joe. Tinkling his ivories,
Joel, or shall we call him Billy, made with a lotta
throatasms and was especially effective on this
current hit “Piano Man.”

�DITORIAL

Trains off campus
The latest absurdity in urban planning has been revealed.
It is an overhead train station, and it may be built right in the
middle of this campus. Within three years, if some people
have their way, students and teachers in classrooms may have
to divide their attention between the ongoing class discussion
and the D train passing by outside the window.
The amazing thing about the proposal is no one seems to
know about it. Nevertheless, and despite the fact that an
overhead station would affect everyone on the Main Street
campus. Facilities Planning vice-president John Telfer has
made no plans to conduct an open hearing on the subject. He
feels an above-ground station in the center of campus would
be an "excellent" location, for it would be close to academic
buildings, and he prefers it to the alternate route underneath
Main Street. While he views proximity to campus buildings as
a convenient advantage, common sense dictates that the
eyesore such a station would create, and the noise distraction
for people trying to work or study (this is, after all, a
university) far outweighs the saving of a short walk.
’

This is a reflection of an increasing trend in American life
for important decisions that affect many to be made by few.
The energy-conservation steps being taken by this campus are
timely and needed, but one wonders why speed limits are cut
to 50 MPH and people are asked to lower their thermostats
while no curtailments are made err Gov. Rockefeller's
limousine fleet or Mr. Nixon's fuel-costly jaunts to Key
Biscayne and San Cremente 1n gas-gulping luxury jets. One
also wonders where the government was for the last five
years when it was clear a squeeze was coming; perhaps
sky-high oil profits were too nice a sight to tamper with; far
easier to ask the working-class slobs to make sacrifices.

This, then, is why there is no open meeting: faculty
would vociferously oppose an overhead station; many
students with vivid memories of the noisy New York City
subway system wpuld veto it as well. The_ "guarantees” that
padded walls would cushion the sodhd from the outside is at
best suspect; even if that were true, two, or three years of
wear and tear and the rumbles and vibrations wilt get 4ouder.
and ldlid5r‘.“The ito1&amp;Td]Fy~6T‘tlTre ‘pjopps?ris~tRat, tRefe^isTa
simple, available and preferable alternative:' building the train
station underneath Main Street. Trains are meant to be
underground, where they can best serve their essential rapid
transit function but bury their noise. Above-ground stations
are only being built in Buffalo where architectural
complications render a subway impossible.
That is not the case here; there is no sensible reason,
except for the convenience of a few administrators, why
students and faculty should be subjected to the
sound-and-sight discomfort of an overhead rail line. If you
agree, write tetters to this newspaper to unequivocally
demonstrate that the people of this campus oppose an
overhead line because a subway is a far better alternative.
Rapid transit will be a welcome addition to Buffalo; an
overhead campus train station will not. Speak up before your
voice is drowned out by the next passing train.

Vol. 24. No. V

One of the problems with talking, or writing,
too much is that you wind up speaking, or
scribbling, when you ought to be listening or
reading. I was muttering in this vicinity around the
same time last week about about people not being
easy on themselves. It was a general statement that a
little self-tolerance might be helpful at times. A little
too general, apparently, because I found it very
difficult to remember what I had said when it might
have proved useful.
Played in a card game the other night. Well,

�Streisand and Redford

Chaff probes being human

‘

Barbara Streisand and Robert Redford, two of moviedom’s
favorites, are now starring in The Way We Were, playing at the
Eastern Hills Mall, Seneca Mall and the Plaza North theaters. What
are you waiting for?

Rally protests arrest
of BSU’s Williams
Representatives of the Black
Student Union (BSU) and the
Progressive Labor Party (PLP)
rallied outside Haas Lounge
Wednesday in support of
recently-arrested BSU President
Larry Williams. Mr. Williams was
to appear in Buffalo City Criminal
Court Thursday morning to face
charges of disorderly conduct and
resisting arrest.
[The trial has been postponed
until November 27 because Mr.
Williams and his lawyer needed
additional time to organize his
defense.]
The charges, resulting from a
Campus Security check on Mr.
Williams’ driving license oh
October 24, “are a blatant case of
political harassment by campus

cops,” said PUP member Charles
Reitz. There was no reason for
stopping Mr. Williams, he
maintained, relating the incident
to discussions at “BSU meetings
with Ketter on October 23 and
24“ in which “students demanded
delayed EOP [Equal Opportunity
Program] checks.”

Chaff is not entertainment
probes the depths of that peculiar insanity we label
“being human.’’ As if reflected in an funhouse or
perhaps more accurately horrof house mirror, the
projection is enlarged, distorted, and horrifying; yet
it speaks the unspeakable truth.
Contemporary in setting, Chaff uses the cliched
“generation gap" as its outermost shroud; it defines
the shape of the play, but its significance is only
secondary to the larger theme. A man and woman

something crazy." the couple is to work together as
a team to try to establish communication with the
actors and prevent rash actions.
The “actors” are sullen, disillusioned youths
who meet regularly to disavow their connection with
humanity: “There’s no hope of ever being right if
you’re born human.” To achieve thier goal, the
groups pump speed (methadrine) into their bodies at
regular intervals.

Opposing stories
After the BSU leader allegedly
attempted to strike one of the
officers, Mr. Kalisz declared him
“under arrest.” When a second
blow was attempted, a small tussle
ensued and they both fell to the
ground. Campus Security
maintained. Mr. Williams was
subsequently handcuffed and
booked.

In another account, Mr. Reitz
said the BSU leader was followed
by Security shortly after the
October 24 EOP meeting. When
he turned on Lisbon Avenue, his
car was boxed in from the front
and rear by two Campus Security
cars, including one filled with
police dogs. Mr. Williams was later
“knocked to the ground by one
cop and punched in the stomach,”
Mr. Reitz said.
Mr. Williams described the
State University of Buffalo as a
“micro-America” and charged the
University’s Administration with
“trying to squeeze blacks out of
school. White middle-class
students will be next,” he warned.
ML Williams urged students to
“work within the law,” although
this would not protect them from,
harassment.

Despairing, the man turns to the audience with
bitterness and says, “They think

Gradually, everyone is drawn into the national
pathways of futility and delusion. The bounds
separating the couple bom the youths begin to

Their reluctance to do so measures their inability to
reach the youths. It becomes apparent that the
relationship between the “actors” and the couple is
symbiotic, destructive, and entirely dependent.
At the climax, the couple braves the necessary
sacrifice; this, however, does not resolve the conflict,
it merely stops the violence. There is no reaohrtion,
there is only suspension. The characters, action, and
plot cease; the audience bears the crisis with them as
they leave the theater. THIS IS IT. THIS IS LIFE:
AMBIVALENCE HUMANITY.
In short. Chaff has a lot to say; its scope is

have embellished their message on his blank
slate. They have molded his thoughts and values into a unique, distinct
personality. These influences continue throughout adulthood as well.
Whether we realize it or not, consciously- and unconsciously, societal
influences shape our very way of thinking, both about the world and
ourselves. The process by which society molds and shapes human minds
is called socialization.
In this issue of dimension, the feature magazine of The
Spectrum, we have taken an in-depth look at the various processes of
socialization. Socialization affects every aspect of our lives. If we don't
understand how its pervading influences work, we become like mindless
clay in the hands of a sculptor. We can be "bent out of shape by
society's pliers," as Bob Dylan tells us. But if we carefully study its
effects, we at least obtain an insight into how modern society shapes its
citizens. And as citizens of an increasingly large and faceless corporate
state, that's an insight we most definitely need.

Commenting on the books themselves, she

Where's the problem?
Why do writers have such a hard time
dealing with women? Partly because few
people seem to perceive that a problem
exists. The women's movement gained
momentum only recently, and the effects
of its impact are just beginning to be felt
Much of the overt radicalism and
conspicuous publicity which characterized
all political liberation movements of the
late sixties has now faded. But feminist
groups are actively, if quietly, putting
pressure upon those parties responsible for
the sexist socialization of children.
Joan NichoJson is the coordinator of the
Task Force for Women in Media, which is
affiliated with the-I mage Committee of the
National Organization for Women.
Referring to the extent of change so far in
the media's portrayal of women, she said:
"Thprg has not been very much change at
all. Aside from small indications here and
there, it is very stow to change." She is
dissatisfied with the current state of the
media; 'There is a blatant failure to
understand the issue" by those responsible
for programming, she maintained.
Gloating over floor wax

The National Association
of
Broadcasters, who set up the guidelines for
television and radio programming, were
recently challenged by Ms. Nicholson and
the Task Force on their use of language in
the guidelines. In the present code, there is
very general treatment given to race and
sex. The Task Force wants them to
specifically address the issue of racial and
sexual stereotyping in the media. The NAB
has claimed that they "agree in spirit" with
the group, but according to Ms. Nicholson,
they "are not willing to go any further."
Ms; Nicholson also described the censors
who deal with broadcasting standards as
"notoriously self-righteous." They simply
claim that there is no problem. Women in
the media generally continue to play the

role of "side-kick," as Ms. Nicholson
termed it. 'There are a poor number of
women heroines doing anything other than
traditional roles," she added.
Television commercials are perhaps even
more sexist than the programs themselves.
Women are seen gloating over newly-waxed
floors, and gleaming with pride over
freshly-laundered clothes. Housework is
not a chore for these women, but a
delightful task which they accept with joy
We see brides floundering around in
laundry rooms and fumbling over pots,
while the more experienced housewives hip
them to the tricks of domestic life.
Commercial after commercial, woman is
shown hard at work with the single goal of
pleasing her family.

One big fairy tale
Or her men. If it's not household
products they're selling, it's cosmetics. Soft
music and exotic scenery surround her as
she takes baths with skin softeners, or
washes, dyes and conditions her hair, or
moisturizes her skin, or paints her face, and
on and on and on. Making oneself beautiful
is oh so sensual and pleasurable; almost as
much fun as making lunches for the kiddies
or dinner for their daddy, after cleaning,
scrubbing and shopping all day long.
Domestic life in the media is one big
fairy tale come true. Little girls just live for
the day when their prince will come
charging into their lives and sweep them
away to a split-level house in suburbia.
They can hardly wait to wear make-up and
change their hair color. But the pity of it is
that many of these girls will grow up trying
to live up to these roles, and will suddenly
find that someone lied to them. Doing the
laundry and cleaning the oven will turn out
to- be one big drag. Making oneself
physically attractive will prove increasingly

�i

difficult after spending so
much time doing housework.
And for those children
whose immediate fives
contradict what the media
presents to them as reality,
the problems are that much j
greater.

entire line of soups for men: ‘The
Manhandlers": hearty, beefy, chunky
soups, so masculine. Tobacco companies
also prey upon the 'sexy loner who can
attract the demeurest of females simply by
offering her a Tiparillo.
Men serve one more function in
television and radio commercials, and that
is to reconfirm and explain what the
women demonstrate. They are the voice of
expertise. Actors sit behind desks in white
coats and the public, especially children,
accept them as authority figures. They are
doctors,
the
lab technicians and
businessmen who supposedly really know
what's going on. Male announcers always
have the final word, despite the nature of
the product.

Miss Suzy: helpless
These are the ways in which the adult
world is depicted to children. The schools,
too, aid the process of perpetuating such
sexual myths. Most children's books outdo
the TV commercials when it comes to
presenting the sexes. "Miss Suzy” is the
of one book found on the shelves of a
children's library. It was written in 1964
by Miriam Young and published by the
Parents Magazine Press in New York. And
it is flagrantly sexist. Here Is a short
synopsis;

Miss Suzy is an innocent little squirrel
who lives alone at the top of an oak tree.
She cooks, cleans and sings, and aside from
that, doesn't seem to do much else. But
one day, the cruel world invades her niche
of stability, when a band of red squirrels
(the bad guys) drive her from her home,
sadistically breaking her broom and eating
all her acorns. Suzy is left to combat the
elements as she is left alone in the forest.
She soon stumbles upon an old house
where she finds a doll house in the attic.
Suzy enters cautiously and the first
thought that springs from her housewife
mentality is: "My, what a lovely house! It
is fit for a queen. But it needs a good
housekeeper, so It is just the place for me.
It must be good to feel needed every time
you see a little dirt and disorder. Suzy
requires no food, no companionship, no
mind stimulation, just a mop and a broom.

"

Male machismo
Upon further exploration of her new
dwelling quarters, Suzy discovers a band of
toy soldiers hidden in a box. Suzy invites
them to share her new home. But Suzy is
still unhappy because she misses, her oak
tree, so she proceeds to inform the soldiers

wrong
the
committed against her. The captain and his
men set off to avenge her. And with noble
gallantry, the captain finds the red squirrels
and proclaims: 'This is Miss Suzy's house,
will you go peacably or must we fight?"
Scared out of their wits, the red squirrels
furiously make their escape, while the
soldiers never life a finger, let alone a gun.
So Suzy gets her house, and some new
friends, and they all lived happily ever
after. Woman the homemaker; man the
protector. Is that the way God planned it?
What happens when a parent or teacher
wants to offer children literature which is
of a more realistic nature? In the past year,
many organizations have been working to
compile lists of non-sexist books for
children. The Women's Action Alliance at
370 Lexington Avenue in New York City is

non-sexist approach to early childhood
education. Their materials include toys,
games, books, records, as well as suggested
reading lists and curriculum guides for
adults. Descriptions are available upon
request and hopefully, by September 1974,
the materials themselves will be generally
available.
Other organizations which can be
contacted for non-sexist learning tools are

another area currently under attack. This
group, however, appears to be interested in
modifying their products to accommodate
changing values. The Association of Toy
Manufacturers, who represent 900 toy
manufacturers across the country, meets
annually every December in New York
City. The Association came to Ms.

group
Nicholson's
and asked them to make a presentation on
sexism and toys at the next meeting.
Ms. Nicholson has agreed, but remains
skeptical about the motives behind their
request. The toy manufacturers claim that
"they are socially aware that a problem
exists." Ms. Nicholson, however, thinks
economic factors may have provided the
motivation. By taking the sexual stigma off
certain toys, the manufacturers 'could
enlarge their market and sell more toys.
The
manufacturers maintain that
"economics is not the issue," but Ms.
Nicholson has said that "this doesn't sound

right to me."
Image
the
Ms.
Nicholson and
Committee are concerned with the
packaging and advertising of toys. They
want to "get away from pictures of little
girls and their dust brooms, and boys with
mechanical sets." While girls' toys have
traditionally emphasized cosmetics and
domestic tasks, toys for boys are more
complex and more interesting. Items such
as chemistry sets show girls in the
background watching, while the boys do
the work.
Enlightening the kids

The

Women's Action Alliance has
developed several toys which discourage
such restrictions. They now run four
day-care centers in Manhattan which use
these toys. Children can play with six-inch
figures on wooden stands of both men and
women in community roles, such as police,
postal workers, nurses, doctors and
carpenters. The figures are also multi-racial.
There are puzzles which show men and
women in non-stereotyped roles. Fathers
are portrayed while involved in domestic
duties and child care responsibilities. In
addition to these innovations, the Alliance
has developed lotto games, flannel board
sets and photographs which are non-sexist.
Barbara Sprung is on the program staff
of the Women's Action Alliance and is
playing a big role in the development of
educational programs.
non-sexist
Questioned about the effectiveness of the
new materials, considering the numerous

sexist influences the

'

child encounters outside of school, she
recommended that teachers have children
focus on these things, urging them to “use
the media as a curriculum tool." Ms. Spring
suggested that teachers point out that the
women on floor wax commercials are
merely actors, and are smiling only because
they are making money, not because of the
shine on their linoleum. "It has been proven
that pressure really works," she said, and
further suggested that children write to
advertisers and television stations to protest
sexist broadcasting. "Children must learn
the politics of pressure," Ms. Sprung
asserted, "and be made to understand that
this is how things get done in our society."
Expensive crusade
Pressure politics may work, but justice
is an expensive process. Ms. Nicholson
claims that each time a broadcasting
company is challenged, the legal expenses
can run as high as $10,000. First, the FCC
must determine to hear the case. If the
charges are deemed valid, the case is
brought to court. The legal grounds which

the feminists base their cases upon relate to
of
employment discrimination, "lack
ascertainment of community interest," and
a federal law entitled the Fairness
Doctrine. This doctrine states that public
communication channel?, regulated by the
FCC, must show two sides of a
controversial issue. The problem here is
that the NAB evades this point by refusing
to acknowledge sexism as a political and
social issue. Sort of like Catch 22, isn't it?
Change isn't easy. The past decade has
taught us that. This is especially true when
it applies to changing something so basic as
sexual role patterns. But if men and
women are ever to reach their full potential
as human beings, we must break free of the
old restrictions and rigid sex stereotypes
which inhibit growth. Children have been
denied choice for too long. Today's world
calls for more than simple role-playing by
its population. There is nothing to lose,
and only freedom to gain.

speech for days. The show may be "live," but it might as

Just George and me
In my TV childhood, there were reruns of the Burns
and Allen program. Sometime during every episode, old
George would isolate himself up in his den and start
talking to the audience about the events of the plot. Then,
when he would return to the story's action, I felt great. It
was as if he were acting on my behalf, under my orders.
We had conferred in the den so when he went back to the
story he was doing things we had discussed. I felt like a
participant. Sure, it was bogus participation, but it was
better than none at all

Clearly, in the live theater there could (and can) be

Ironically, a commentary on a TV news program
demanding an end to apathy encourages apathy by just

them who observed and eavesdropped on the viewing

films (called the most "democratic" art) may, as a strange

Most children, however, will become
interested in some line of work associated with
their parents' occupations. According to Curt
Mettlin, assistant professor of Sociology at the
State University of Buffalo, the child might
learn about professions by either observing
models of behavior, or by having the nature of
the world defined by others. (Parents are
perfect examples to follow or identify with at
an early stage of development.)
The amount of contact or exposure one
has with a member of a vocation will have a
great deal to do with his interest concerning
that line of work. The child who has seen the
mailman nearly every day of his young life
(and who has never heard of the practice of
law) might want to grow up to be a mailman
Parental influences will naturally'prejudice the
child. For example: "My daddy's a baseball
player and I'm gonna be one too!" There
might also be a negative reaction to an opinion
given by a parent; "My mommy says that TV
repairmen are crooks; I'm not going to be a
crook when I grow up."

Professionalization
Only when children are exposed to other
sources does this parental influence shift. Dr.
Mettlin was involved in a case study in Iowa

where the occupational aspirations of school
were observed. In this study, the

children

�an American aristocracy
teachers

defined

the educational and
occupational goal for the students. With new
models and structural definitions to guide him,
the child is able to decide for himself what will
be the most realistic goal to pursue in the years
ahead.
Those who ultimately decide to enter the
practice of law or medicine will experience
some transformation in professional school.
For some, the transformation will be slight;
but if a student's personal background is at
great variance with his current environment,
problems may arise. If a student's parent is a
physician, the student has already been
well-professionalized.

Professional socialization has to change
knowledge about one’s self. Dr.
Mettlin stressed. A student must have a certain
ability and a sense of authority acquired in
school. Only after the student realizes the
institution is a more powerful force than he,
can the institution act to shape and influence
the individual.

personal

The 'pro'
The criteria of a professional has been
pretty much determined before the student
becomes a doctor or lawyer. People outside
the professional circle already have their
preconceived notions of what they expect
from the "American Aristocrat." His is an
expertise;
based
on
the
occupation
professional is the best at what he does. With a
set salary for the service he provides, he is not
involved in making a profit. Professional work
is a full-time activity, but because it is of an
autonomous nature, the professional is
answerable to no one but himself. The
existence of a professional code of ethics is the
Good Housekeeping Seal in which the public
must place their trust.
This criteria may not be difficult to
follow, but dedication is an absolute must.
Any shirking of responsibilities could mean a
loss of faith by those who hold the
professional in high regard.

are made, the concept of class hierarchy
working-class factory slobs, blue-collared civil
servants, highly-touted corporate executives
is inevitable.

—

-

Who's that doctor?
Finally, the process of mystification will
generally come into play. The public's
perception of a doctor or lawyer is generally
about the same. The professional steps into a
stereotype; it might also be referred to as a
"front." A man dressed in white and carrying a
black bag is probably a doctor. Someone
leaving a courthouse, wear ng a gray flannel
suit antjcarrying an attache case, is most likely
a lawyer. Once again, the professional cannot
escape his image. He may either strengthen or
refine it, but he can hardly denounce the
factors that have given him his high status.
And as Charles A. Reich notes in The Greening
of America: "In a world where men are
recognized only by their credentials, to lose
credentials is to cease being a human being."
Are law and medicine the only practices
that can be characterized as truly professional?
At the very least, they serve to act as a
prototype for every other occupation. Dr.
defines
as
professionalism
Mettlin
a
"continuum," that is, there is a varied degree
of inherence to the professional model.

Titles
Evidently,

a worker from any other
would like to be considered a
professional since the word means "well
done." Might there also be less ambiguous yet
similarly important classifications in the
United States? Nurses and pharmacists might
be considered marginal professionals, since
their training and criteria is not much different

vocation

from the professional's.

Americans have always looked up to the
professional breed of men. Now that lawyers
may also use the title "Doctor," the only way
to distinguish the difference between the two
prototypes is by the service they perform.

Professionalism has three distict functions,

Of course it was all absurd, but one can see a
clear connection between the fantasy life of Sandra

wasn't sex
or lack of it. People have shacked up,
sometimes openly, for centuries and it is even
common now for people of both sexes to live
together platonically. The issue was sexual politics,
cohabitation as a political act. Though Ms. LeClair is

POLITICS AND PROTEST

the ’50s
by Clem Colucci

Most talk about the alleged return to the '50s
concerns politics and protest. With the end of The
Riots, Why Are the Campuses Quiet? becomes one
of the Great Questions of Our Time. Answers range
from the Kent and Jackson State murders, to the
slowing down of the economy and its resultant job
pressures, to simple apathy.
Some call it a sell-out to the Establishment;
others call it cynicism, still others call it common
sense. I don't know what it is, but I know what it is
not. It is not a return to the '50s. Both the '50s and
the '70s are distinguished by a lack of violent
political activity, both the '50s and the’'70s see
Richard Nixon in the White House. The analogy is
compelling, but it is false.

commentators

say.

are playing after the rebelliousness of the '60s is a
regression to the '50s is bilge, resting on a superficial
understanding of what has happened.
To see what is really going on, we will examine
the role of Youth through some capsule social
histories of sex, politics, religion, drugs and other
phenomena in mid-century America.

DRUGS
A veteran member of the drug scene, someone
who smoked before it was fashionable, once told
me: “Bah, everyone smokes now." He spat it out
with the contempt of an aristocrat who sees a poor
boy attending his exclusive prep school on a
scholarship.

In the '50s, drugs were restricted to the poor
and a small group of musicians, literati and
intellectuals. In the '60s drugs hit the middle class
and became another of,, the Great Issues. Now

The '70s see the institutions battered but
standing. They are, however, dead horses that few
people seriously want to waste energy beating. But
the Youth of the '70s does not accept the norms as
its predecessors in the '50s did. They no longer defy
them; they simply refuse to take them seriously. The
institutions are so clearly invalid that reforming
them takes a place on the agenda somewhat below

attitude we will call Irreverence.

pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America

Political indoctrination of the young is generally associated
with totalitarian countries. The American vision of a Communist
classroom is one in which students dress alike, blindly chant party
phrases, and are injected with political dogma. Our way is the only
way of life, they are told. The capitalists are racist, imperialist dogs.
Textbooks are censored in accordance with the rigid party line,
which the young generation quickly learns to parrot.
Against this harsh stereotype, the American classroom is seen as
one in which all points of view are espoused, students are
encouraged to think, controversial viewpoints are examined. But
this description is as inaccurate as the Communist stereotype. For
American classrooms have a vested interest in krcializing the young
to embrace the "American" way of life, to believe that ours is the
greatest country on earth, to support democratic values.
Our first graders may not memorize phrases from Mao's little
red book, but they do recite the pledge of allegiance every day and
sing songs like the national anthem and "My Country Tis of Thee."
In later years, they must regurgitate a textbook-version of world
history in which the USA does very little wrong. And although
socialization to politics is a complex myriad of interacting factors,
no one can deny that the school plays a higly central role.

The youth groups attempt to occupy all of an individual's time,
thus precluding alternative sources of influence or large blocks of
time to think and question. In Taiwan, where there are few student
protests, researchers found that students there undergo a
socialization process that emphasizes security, resignation and
passivity. In China, where creation of the Rad Guard actively
involved youth in the Cultural Revolution of the 1960's, youth
groups are effectively used to transmit political dogma and foster
support for regime-level values.
Do organizations like the Boy Scouts serve a similar, if less
overt, function in the United States? This is debatable, but
influences both in and out of school are designed to bolster feelings
of anti-Communism and stress the virtues of democracy, political
participation, voting and constitutional freedoms. While Dr. Jaros
observed that "outright jingoism is probably on the way out,"
authority figures from teachers to camp counselors to scoutmasters
may subtly convey support for democracy.

Manipulating minds

War not questioned

"Politics in the modern world has sometimes been described as
the battle for men’s minds," says Dean Jaros in Socialization to
Politics. "Political behavior is governed by norms, consciences,
beliefs and values." The institutions of our society, as in any
society, are ruled by influential men with a vested interest in
preserving the status quo. They do not want students to doubt or
question our society's values. Such questioning is dangerous: it
produces people like draft resistors and anti-Vietnam demonstrators.
So the schools encourage mind-numbing conformity and the
perpetuation of established norms and values. "Presidents are not
respected, laws are not obeyed, taxes are not paid, political stability
does not prevail unless people believe," Dr. Jaros observes.
What role should the schools play in the socialization process?
Richard M. Mereiman describes the alternatives in Political
Socialization and Educational Climates: "Should the schools
encourage life adjustment or uses of the intellect? Should they
emphasize the acquisition of factual knowledge or the ability to
manipulate ideas? Should they prepare students for college or for
vocations?" And should they encourage automatic support for the
system or a healthy questioning of its values? Certainly, these are
=
n»w questions.
Various nations approach the problem differently. Totalitarian
countries quite blatantly and systematically use their classrooms for
the political purpose of encouraging support for the regime. In the
Soviet Union, the state-run education and child-care systems "show

Schools intentionally avoid frank discussion of moral issues, as
a sizable portion of the public believes treatment of political and
moral values should be left to the family. Fearing the hostility of
conservative groups and protective parents, many teachers may
teach to avoid pursuing controversial subjects. So a teacher may
teach about all the wars this country has ever fought, emphasizing
dates of battles and terms of treaties, without ever raising the moral
question of war.
This is just the way the rulers at the top want it: less
questioning of the morality of war. more unblinking soldiers for the
war machine. But unlike totalitarian societies, children here are
exposed to alternative influences, such as the media. And so
textbooks which glorify war may not hold much weight against the
gore of nightly color telecasts from Vietnam.

th« faith the Soviets maintain in the possibility of manipulating
minds while they are yet young," Dr. Jaros explains. While formal
schools advance the purposes of those in authority, party youth
organizations such as the Little Octobrists, Young Pioneers and
Communist Youth League are skillfully designed to instill loyalty to
the regime.

Suparpewarful authority
Socialization in this country consists of far. more than
schooling; it includes family, pears and mass media. The first
influence is, of course, the parents. Psychologists suggest that the
young child views his parents as omnipotent and all-powerful, in
control of the world; he might even ask them to make it stop raining
or produce lost toys. Soon, however, ha realizes his parents are not

"Not only are parents toon seen as subject to natural authority,
but to tocial authority as well. Man-made restrictions such as traffic
laws restrain parents; children quickly learn this. Authority figures
such as police become visible. Again, the formerly omnipotent
parents bend, this time to the will of other men or the institutions
of men. The new superpowers are political authority."

Children also greatly idealize the President, who it
superpowerful and superfoenevolent. Similarly, they hold a very
positive image of their father. The child perceives his parents as
all-powerful, since they are the dear source of all gratifications and
punishments in his young life. Having no retaliatory resources of his
own, being confronted such a superbeing is highly anxiety-arousing
for the child, because of the superbeing's tremendous destructive
potential. Since entertaining that this superbeing might have evil
intent would produce intolerable anxiety, children love their parents
and hold an elevated image of them.
When the child becomes aware of greater superpowers in the
form of political authority, the familiar anxiety returns. 'The
response is similar; the child reacts to the supreme power of political

figures in the same way that he reacts to parental power
elevates it and loves it to avoid the anxiety of contemplating its
hurtful potential," explained Dr. Jaros. "Children literally must love
both parent and President."
Further, there is a cultural norm to shield children from harsh
reality. Adults try to shield children from all manifestations of
human conflict. Or. Jaros believes: "Divorce, lawsuits, crime and
war are probably among the phenomena that tend to be
whitewashed. Politics in general may well be. too." Youthful
idealism and admiration of the President is eroded during
adolescence, as the individual becomes more aware of abrasive
reality and more cynical about politicians. Watergate has shattered
many myths for young children about the sanctity of their
government and President; one wonders if its effects may spawn an
even younger generation of cynics.

At age five, school, peers and media begin to compete with
parental influence. Significantly, "children come to know quite
early that they are boys rather than girls, blacks rather than whites,
poor rather than rich, Protestant rather than Catholic or Jewish,"

writes Dr. Jaros. By the time an American child is six years old,
"membership in the political community United States has joined
the rapidly-lengthening list."

All these distinctions may become blurred, as young children
confuse religious rituals and patriotic exercises. 'The similarity

Propaganda: it depends whose side you're on

'The leaders of Communism,
who are mainly the leaders of the
Soviet Union and Communist
China, and nations controlled by
them, have one strong single
purpose. That purpose is to spread
Communism throughout the
world until Democracy has been
wiped out. The leaders make.jt

and widespread propaganda
that they intend to make this a
Communistic world at any cost.

What is propaganda? We have
all been taught since childhood
that Communist countries
indoctrinate their pupils with
propaganda, while the strong suit
of democracy has been the
freedom of information and ideas.
But as the above passage might
indicate, our students too are
inundated with the superiority of
the democratic system and the
"American way of life." two
countries encounter in trying to
reach a common interpretation of
to such matters as American
imperialism. Our seizure of land
from the Indians, the French, the
British, the Spanish and the

was "manifest destiny." Our
atomic bombing of Hiroschima
was heroic and in the interests of
peace. How will future history

to advance the cause of world

Of course
it must be
remembered that most of these
texts were very old, and many
probably not in use. But their
Cold War doggerel underscores the
need for vigilance regarding the
material we expose impressionistic
young children to. Early
impressions and prejudices can
last a lifetime. Fortunately, the
Buffalo Board of Education is
aware of this problem and makes
yearly efforts to replace outdated
textbooks with updated, modern
versions.
"We have ongoing textbook
committees and we continually
evaluate," said Joseph Murray,
assistant superintendent of the
Board.
"A student/teacher
committee reviews books in every
field each summer. Of course, a
teacers' cupboards may stilt have a
few outdated texts, but we
discourage their use," added Mr.
Murray. On the specialized
committees which review texts
every summer, "we try to get
teachers who are teaching the
subject and students who have
taken the subject," said Mr.
Murray. 'They review what they
have, what they don't like, and
what they do like." These
committees also review the lists of
available new texts, and order new
editions where they deem
necessary. "We have not run into
any funding problems," he added.
"Books are being updated
constantly," said Ray Fahey,
director of Social Studies for the
Board. Although
teachers
sometimes retain old books
around the classroom, the annual
committees are constantly picking
out new books to order, he
explained. "We try to order
paperbacks as well as new texts to
keep abreast of whet is
happening," said Mr. Fahey.
"However, it's also the teacher's
responsibility to elaborate on
material that's not in the book,"
he added. With things changing so
fast in today's world, today's facts
become tomorrow's fallacies. For
this reason, the teacher's role in
elaborating arid integrating new
information with readings is even
more important than ever before,
Mr. Fahey feels.
He added that the state
presently reimburses the school
system for the purchase of
textbooks in grades 7-12. If Gov.
Rockefeller signs a bill presently
in legislature, that reimbursement
practice will be extended to
elementary schools as well.

Somerset Maugham, 1958

From the time a child is very young, he is taught that
things cost money. Kindergerten kids are given a dime a
day as an allowance so they can learn the value of money.
"We can't get a color TV or go on that vacation this year
like Tommy's parents, because we don't have enough
money," parents explain. The teenager and his
rapidly-expanding material needs quickly learns that it
doesn't grow on trees.
It's not money that is important, of course, but what
you can buy with the green stuff. Rent, food, warm
clothes
instead of bartering for these essentials as in
ancient societies, we use the all-purpose commodity of
money. Vacations, college educations, televisions, cars,
all these
stereos and records, a guitar, a movie, a date
things cost money. But in our capitalistic society, money
has transcended its utilitarian value as a purchasing
commodity and attained an intrinsic value all its own.

Fat bank books
Thus people who have more than enough money on
which to live strive fervently to make even more money. A

fat bank book seems to provide fervently to make even
more money. A fat bankbook seems to provide that
security too, but what good it it if one mutt spend
thousands on protective alarm systems and still get robbed
every year anyway? People at one time bought cars for
their transportation value
now a vinyl roof, power
windows, bucket teats and color-coordinated seat covers
are the main factors to consider. Once people have enough
money to live comfortably, status becomes the new game
in town
using that money for extravagance, flaunting
one's wealth.
Those who sing the praises of capitalism and free
enterprise ignore its crucial side-effect: that the impersonal
value of competition for money has eroded, if not
replaced, human feelings and interpersonal values. The
result is a dog-eat-dog society where friends rip each other
off, with everybody "looking out for Number One"
because you can never trust anybody nowadays. The
open
values which are so essential to free enterprise
competition
have permeated our social lives so that our
interpersonal values are capitalistic top. This leads to
marrying for money, suing your husband for divorce for
beating out
everything he's got, soaking your

"Influential" people who can open the right doors for you.

acquaintance is no longer of any use to you, you discard
Reducing human emotions to a game of Monopoly
where the object is to stay out of jail and cream the other
guy and inflate your money pile: this is the social result of
a society which virtually runt on the green stuff. And if
you're looking for the younger generation to change
tilings, don't; they have embraced their parents'
checkbook values, and even the ones who still pay lip
service to the principles of equality do so while driving
their air-conditioned cars and listening to their expensive
stereos- Money is God in America, and as long as we
continue to worship the dollar, we wif continue to
conduct ourselves like petty capitalists: treating profit as
The Goal, buying and selling friendships like rising or
falling stocks, putting all cultural values up for sale.
Nothing remains in America that doesn't make a profit:
Christmas is commercialized: pleasure is fdsricatad; sex is
for sale: craftsmanship and quality have been sacrificed for
what wHI sell. So if you're wondering why America seems
to be a land of depressed, compulsive, problem-laden
neurotics, miybe it's because we are so socialized to
money that we are incapable of enjoying any feeling or

�Racism competition and cut-throat Little Leaguers:
,

Sports
reflect
society

by Bruce Engel

The myth of the purity of sport has been practically destroyed by
various books and studies in recent years. It is now common knowledge
that athletes use drugs to build muscle and enhance performance. At its
highest levels, sports is a big business run much the same as the
production and sale of automobiles. Racism and sexism are as rampant
in sports as in any other aspect of life.
Obviously, sports is not to be worshipped as a savior for society
and a bastion of unspoiled virtue. Nor should it be unduly condemned
for the evils it may contain. The plain fact is that sports, of all forms
and at all levels, cannot be separated from its environment. The
negative aspects of sports do not serve to corrupt society; they merely
reflect it.
Sports certainly did not invent racism, even though it has not been
much of an aid in destroying it. Racist players did not learn their
intolerance from sports. Neither did racist owners, administrators and
fans. But the physical nature of athletic competition served as a very
convenient means to continue discrimination. The feeling was that a
black needn't be intelligent to succeed athletically. Just as blacks had
made good slaves on the plantation, they made good hired hands on the
fields or on the court.

dHaWnud pri mtdiMg
They still couldn't marry the boss' daughter or live or play where
they wanted. But sports, unlike slavery, provides blacks with the
opportunity to become a star, much to the chagrin of some white fans.
Jackie Robinson and the other early breakers of the color line certainly
bore the brum of the most blatant racism, but it is still visible today in
isolated incidents, such as the threats recently made against Henry
Aaron and Reggie Jackson. Racial prejudice within sports began to
subside only after both civil rights and black power became major
political movements.
t

Similarly, the idea of equal athletic opportunities for women had
lagged sadly behind the women's liberation movement until very
recently. Previously, this society's ideal of housewife-and-mother meant
not only keeping females out of the office, but keeping them out of the
gymnasium as well. There have always been some activities commonly
performed by women, however, because they were socially acceptable.
One such activity, more show biz than sport, is where the female is
subservient to the male teams in the role of morale booster, such as

cheerleaders and baton twirlers in a half-time show.
Secondly, the most popular women's sports have been those that
are individual in nature and essentially aesthetically pleasing to the
male eye, thereby fulfilling another of chauvinistic society's image of
the female. Such activities as gymnastics, figure skating, tennis and
swimming can be interpreted as an athletic extension of girl watching,
emphasizing grace and style rather than the strength and speed that
typify male athletes.

Wtadini out the lames

In sports, society has found an institution that not only utilizes the
leisure time created by industrialization on an economically productive
basis, but also supposedly builds character in the process. The research
of some psychologists has found athletes to possess high degrees of
maturity,' independence and competitiveness, generally considered
positive values in our society. But they interpret sports not as a
developing factor, but rather as one which weeds out the poorer
specimens.

Indeed, sports is a selective process far tougher than the road to
any medical or professional school. Thousands of students will get into
medical school this year, but only a few hundred rookies will make the
pros in all the major sports combined. Millions of kids across the
country play Little League baseball. Only Q00 men play in the majors.

With a very few exceptions, those weak in character as well as those
weak in body will be dropped by the wayside somewhere along the
line.

.,

That American dream
Nonetheless, the American dream persists: the idea that anyone
can be President or play center field for the Yankees. Millions of kids
from 6 to 15 play in organized age group leagues all over the country.
The kids just like to have fun. The parents, however, like to see their
kids win. They think the kids are learning responsibility, teamwork,
pride and all those other wonderful things. Just ask any parent that has
a child in midget football or Little League baseball. They'll tell you it's
the best thing that ever happened to little Johnny, even if he can't
stand the game, doesn't play because he isn't good enough, or gets
kicked around because he refuses to hit back. Feelings of depression
and rejection can be tremendous in an eight-year-old who doesn't play
because his friends are bigger and stronger, or one who loses when
winning is so all-important.
Society interprets sport as a good outlet for natural aggressive and
competitive behavior. This attitude fits well into a competitive free
enterprise economy that places a high value on success. Is competition
really natural, or does our society encourage ft? Sports Illustrated
recently ran a series on sport in China. Traditionally, Chinese society is
not a very competitive or a§gj$ssiye one. The Chinese people say they

Note: A trip to the doctor's office can underscore the

respect and deference we accord the man of letters, the
"professional," the expert. Do we unconsciously behave
this way toward anybody wearing a white coat?

"Yes?" was all I answered
'The doctor will see you now.'
There was nothing wrong with me. I felt as fine as
someone in a doctor's office can feel. Bones in place. Let's
see. In rising, I bent just a little too forcefully in order to
take inventory. All fine tend dandy. I knew that any sample
taken of me, including the silly urine sample, would reveal
a body in perfect health. Doctors, with their probing hands
and perpetual bedside manner, made me feel displayed.
Simply talking to the fearsome, omnipotent medicine man
would expose me to a flock of inspections and subtle
detections.

Through the flimsy, jack o' lantern door I ambled
and down the brief corridor to a selection of other doors.
Some of them were open, some shut, and some struck
compromises between the extremes.
"In here,” said a room, and I followed the advice.
Washing his hands was a trpubled-looking gent in a white,
smock-like affair with matching white shoes. I was
impressed by the apparent casualness that he displayed in
going about his work. "Don't sit down," he told me. Right
away my worried eyes sought each chair in the room,
expecting to see the slimy remnants of some gruesome
experiment placed thereupon. But the chairs were just
chairs, and I admit, I was disappointed. "Don't sit down;
we'll go to my main office and sit there." He wiped his
large fumbly hands. Then he placed his right hand against
mine and the two hands shook. "How do you do? I'm Dr.
Welby."

Could it be they mean that the doctor has never
overcharged them? Certainly not. It could be a judgment
based upon the doctor's general reputation and bedside
manner. An unclear notion of the likeability of the man
could be all that they founded their assessment upon.
Clearly, a doctor's skills are somehow more than all this.
People form unsound judgments based on extraneous
information. I have considered the possibility that the
assessment could be based in relation to the doctor's
success in treating the individual who makes the statement.
That is, if Shell goes to a doctor with a wart on his right
foot, and if the doctor succeeds in removing the wart and
restoring Shell to relative good health and spirits, then
Shell feels he has a good doctor. This is an unreliable way
to judge a. doctor, since the maladies which inflict the
average patient are of such a common sort that they do
not really test the skill of a medical man. And, it must be
remembered, owing to the peculiar style and disposition of
each individual's body, that even the best doctor could fail

difficult sickness.
So many people feel qualified to make the
near-impossible critical judgments of physicians. And,
when it comes to judging a film or a book or other spawn
of the arts, even those who shirk at judging doctors, even
the least qualified observer, feels up to the task of making
some assessment. Hmmmm
Still, I could not help feeling impressed by that
garish display of Certificates adorning the office walls.
Because of this childish notion, the citing of the doctor as
a founder of a medical society helped to put my mind at
rest. My confidence was short-lived, though, for I later got
a chance to study the certificate more closely. I discovered
that the society he had founded was, basically, a social
dub which had been in existence for a grand total of two

My overlong legs jutted out and across the grassy
floor pointing the way to the friendless chamber where the
old doctor worked and sipped coffee between liver
inspections. The pointless gla» partition that interrupted
the panelled wall between our respective rooms was
checkered with translucent sequins of variegated light
patterns. Through this I could vaguely discern the rough
shadow of a prissy woman in a bleached uniform. She
spoke either into her left hand or a telephone. Then she
put it down, threw aside the glassy partition and called my
name.

I found that it listed the doctor as a charter
member of the Western Divisional Association of Medical
Scientists. A FOUNDER. This impressed me in a vague
sort of way. Not being even remotely aware of the skills
with which a doctor must be intimate, I find it almost
impossible to realistically evaluate the merit of this or that
physician. People are in the habit of saying, "My doctor is

Anthony's hand greeted Bobby's at the door with the
traditional grip. They walked into Bobby's room and fell
into the two heavily-padded black vinyl swivel chairs.
Bobby snapped a tape cartridge into place and music
blared from the speakers in the four corners. He turned the
illumination knob on the wall and lowered the lighting by
half. Then he fell back into his chair.
“It was really a scenario today," Bobby said.
"Definitely was," Anthony agreed. "A long,

"Really?" said Bobby. "Well, I'm a hero for a day."
"For a season, I hope. I'd love to see you play on the

"You're not alone."
"I was talking to Joanna," said Anthony, changing the

subject.

"The one who goes to Hooton? Where did you see
her?"
"In the hall. We had a good talk."
"How does it look?"
"Real good. I'm going to ask her to cut school and
come over my house one afternoon."
"She won't cut."
"She's almost thirteen, Bobby. She doesn't care. She'll
do it."
"Think she uses anything?"
"That's her problem." They both laughed. Abruptly,
Anthony reached into his pocket and produced two green
pills.

"What are they?" Bobby asked.
"They're Number Twos," said Anthony, swallowing
one.

"I told you that you didn’t have to bring anything."
"It's cool."
Bobby took the other Two. He swallowed; his head
rose, slowly at first, like a balloon, and then faster and
faster, like a jet. The wind rushed through his body.
Finally he leveled off, sailing like a bird. He raised his fist
in the gesture of approval.
"What a rush," said Bobby.
"They're really good," agreed Anthony.
"I wish my mother worked," Bobby lamented. "It's
fuccin' great having the house to myself."
"It must be definitely ungood having her around all
the time," said Anthony.
"Ah, she doesn't really bother me. She just sits around
and watches the video all day. When my father comes
home he talks to her about the office. When they have
friends over, they sit around and smoke grass and watch
the video. That's her life."

Bobby shrugged. "The county assigned her to do

don't really talk to her about anything important."
"Can't do any Threes with her around."
"That* for sure." The New Move symphony had
ended. Bobby put in another cartridge, and took two blue
capsules from within a rolled-up sock in his underwear
drawer. He tossed one to Anthony.
"How long is it?" Anthony asked, checking the clock.
"It's an hour," said Bobby. "We got these from Pete."
"I knew they looked familiar," said Anthony,
swallowing one.
Bobby ate his capsule. His mind whirled; bright colors
unfolded across the. room like silent fireworks. Balance
yielded to a floating sensation, like a drifting leaf riding
the air currents.
He heard Anthony's voice, projecting from afar. It,
too, sounded strange. The colors rotated wildly like a
phosphorescent pinwheel. Anthony was talking again.
Bobby tried hard to listen.
"You should turn your Mom on to one of these," he

me if I know anybody who does Threes."
"What didja say?"

"That I don't associate with that type of people."
They broke up laughing.
"They don’t even suspect that everyone's doing

the bad ones. And certainly not in public school," he
added in an exaggerated high-pitched woman's voice.

These objective permeate every school, educational

Role definition
In order for a society to exist as a functioning
unit, certain roles, status positions, and "jobs" are
defined and then filled with individuals. The first
serious effort directed-toward this end can be seen in
high school, where students feel their first real
pressure to make a career decision. Grade schools,
however, only direct people into general roles: male
vs. Grad schools, however, only direct people into
general roles: male vs. female; fast vs. slow; popular
vs. unpopular. The first concerted effort to recruit
individuals for preconceived job slots occurs in the
high school experience. Higher education then finds
itself cleaning up the spillover of those who were not
ready, or refused, to be categorized.
The college years coincide with adolescence, a
time when the individual physically matures and
begins efforts at becoming a socially-defined
"adult." The individual is ripe for substantial
influences from society through its educational
system and accompanying experiences. Long periods
of unstructured "play" time are still available.

-Charles A. Reich in The Greening of America

Failure needed
Each year there are many drop-outs from the
rocky educational ladder. Society could not survive
without these drop-outs. It needs people whose
motivation has been destroyed. This creates a class
of citizens who will be realtively willing to perform
the menial talks required by society. Society kills the

The typical American college is geared for

confidence."

Public IQ scores
Because numerous students have
undoubtedly lost confidence as a result of
similar experiences, the schools have begun to
place greater stress on the individual student's
progress, rather than on comparisons of students.
This awareness may have led to the abolition of
I.Q. tests, where each student's intelligence was
numerically ranked on a vertical scale. Sometimes the
scores were read aloud in class, to the embarassment
and shame of those who were rated poorly.
Joseph Manch, Superintendent of the Buffalo
school system, explained his philosophy as one that
emphasized the "development of the individual." Local
schools are striving to improve an individual student's
accomplishments, not in comparison with others, but in
accordance with his own potential. Dr. Manch said. 'Too
much competition can destroy certain children by making
them feel like failures," he commented.
"We must expand our efforts to meet the specific
needs of students through programs of identification
enrichment, counseling and guidance, and alternative
methods of education," Dr. Manch stated in Goals 1973.
"We believe in individual development... but we cannot
forget that competition is a fact of life," he added.
A fact of life. To the student who climbs into a
professor's office to steal an examination. To the
politician who values winning above all, whatever the
means. To the seven-year-old shortstop who can't hit as

Fatherless families!

and emotional effects

parents play

The Boston Strangler, Lee Harvey
Oswald and Lieutenant William Galley all
came from fatherless families. One should
not of course assume that paternal absence
is necessarily the stepping-stone for a
career as a mass murderer or assassin.
Nevertheless, over the past 10 years, a
significantly high proportion of criminally
diseased individuals were discovered to
have passed the first crucial years of life
Without a father.
The effects of father-absence range from
minor disruptions in social and emotional
to
development
"gross
forms of
psychopathology," according to E. Mavis
Heatherington, professor of Psychology at
the University of Virginia. Because most
socialization theories emphasize the role

in sex-role deviations, one of
the most extensively-investigated
consequences of father-absence has been
the sex-role development of fatherless
children.
Stereotyped sex roles
Sex typing. Dr. Heatherington said, "is
the process by which children acquire the
motives, values and behaviors regarded as
characteristically masculine or feminine."
Although some changes have occured in
sex-role standards, she felt recant studies
illustrated that both children and adults
still maintain stereotyped traditional
concepts of masculinity and femininity.
"Males are expected to be independent,
dominant, assertive and competent in
in the
dealing with problems
environment," Dr. Heatherington surmised.
"In contrast, females are viewed as more
submissive, nurturant and sensitive in social
situations."
Studies have shown that boys reared by
warm, dominant and masculine fathers are
more inclined to be masculine themselves
both in overt behavior and in preferences
for sex-typed activities. H.B. Biller and L J.
Borstelman found considerable disruption
in sex-typing when the mother played a
more assertive role in the decision-making
process. Because mothers by necessity
assume a more dominant, decisive and
instrumental role in the fatherless family,
these disruptions will occur more often
when there is paternal absence.
—

Behavioral variability
Children who became fatherless before
age 5 have been described as less aggressive,
more dependent and having less masculine
self-concepts and game preferences than
children whose fathers were present at the
same age level. The extent of these
abnormalities will depend on what type of
support is available from relatives, friends
and
other father substitutes.
Socio-economic status, race, presence of
siblings and length of separation will also
modify the disruptions
in a child's
upbringing.

In some cases, however, boys whose
fathers have frequently been absent since
infancy will exhibit excessively masculine
and assertive behavior. In their research on
Norweigan families, where many fathers
were sailors and had to be away from home
at least nine months a year, DB. Lyn and
W.L. Sawrey described this .“compensatory

a powerful force in the shaping of feminine
behavior," said Dr. Heatherington. Thus,
while few differences have been found
between
f ather-present and
paternally-absent girls in pre-school years
(as is the case with boys), distinctions

gradually emerge as age increases and
become clearly present at puberty.
Adolescent father-absent girls were
found to have two marked disruptions in

heterosexual behavior in research by Dr.
Heatherington and Jan L. Deur, research
consultant in the Madison, Wisconsin
public school system. Their behavior was
described as either promiscuous and
"inappropriately assertive" activity with
mate peers, or as severe sexual anxiety,
shyness and discomfort around males. The
latter syndrome appeared more frequently
when separation was the result of the
father's death, while the former was found

or desertion. Father absent girls have less
opportunity to acquire "appropriate skills
necessary for appropriate heterosexual

father-absent children. Scores on Scholastic
Aptitude Tests (SATs) were generally
lower for students whose fathers were
missing two or more years, reported
Sutton-Smith, Rosenberg and Landy.
Effects on mothers
The loss of a husband can adversely
affect a wife in her performance as a
mother. She may become more hostile
toward males, feel guilty about her
behavior as a wife, or experience financial
pressure. "Separation may [also] lead to a

according to Dr. Heatherington.

"Whether this is a cause or effect of
father-absence is unclear," maintained Dr.
Heatherington. "However, the implication
is that the children in these homes will be
subject to a greater degree of stress than
children from normal homes." These
mothers may place more emphasis on
obedience, politeness and conformity and
less on encouraging masculine behavior in
their sons.
Despite the fact that many recent mass
murderers hailed from broken homes, this
obviously is more the exception than the
rule. But growing up without a father does
affect a child, and the more research can
document these effects, the better
equipped single parents will be in raising
their children.

Tuckman and R.A. Regan determined
there are more clinical problems from
separated and divorced homes than from
widowed homes, a finding consistent with
the interpretation that separation and
divorce are usually more often precipitated
by intra-family conflict than is the death of
a parent. Similarly, an unhappy, intact
home may be more detrimental than a
home broken by divorce.
Paternal absence occurs more often in
homes of lower-class and black families,
the same groups which are more often
associated
with lower academic
achievement. Because father-absent
children will also have significantly fewer
cognitive skills even among the same race,
Deutsch and Brown suggested the lower
performance of blacks on IQ tests may be
attributed to inadequate home conditions.
In a well-controlled study, they discovered
that fifth-graders from intact families
performed higher on these tests than did
fifth-graders who had been bombarded
with the cumulative effects of
father-absence. Children from homes where
a father was not absent until after age 5

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Communication lines
A full-time faculty member in
the Colleges is necessary for
communication between the
Administration and the Colleges,
said Bob Kolb, Student
Association’s Academic Affairs
coordinator and member of the
Colleges Committee. “Many
faculty were frightened away
from the Colleges by the riots of
’69 and ’70,” explained another

since the college
demonstrations of the late 1960’s,
the Buffalo area will be playing a
key role, Mr. Siegal said. Henry P.
Smith, Congressman from the
37th District, is a Republican
member of the House Judiciary
Committee. That committee is
presently investigating Mr.
Nixon’s conduct in office and will
recommend to the entire House
whether it should vote for
impeachment. The committee,
with 21 Democrats and 17
Republicans, is presently voting
along party lines. But the issue is
not a partisan one, Mr. Siegal
emphasized, and to persuade Mr.
Smith, a Republican to vote in
favor of impeachment could be
critical. He urged students to
become involved in the process
and to write letters to Mr. Smith
to inform him of student opinion
on impeachment.

The external evaluation
contained a number of internal
contradictions, said Burton Weiss
of College F. The report praised
the use of “outside” community
members who have no formal
teaching qualifications, and yet

Confidence restored

A plan to “restore confidence”
in the Collegiate system was
Offered by George Hochfield,
professor of English and next
year’s Faculty-Senate chairman.
He suggested creating yet another
commission which would guide
the Colleges through a “transition
stage.” The Colleges “should not
represent small platforms
inhabited by tiny bands of
zealots,” said Dr. Hochfield. The
Colleges “belong to the
University,” and should cater to
the University’s goals, he added.
In contrast, another person
insisted that the University
belongs to the students and
should cater to their goals.
The Colleges have generally
claimed they are more interested
with individual development than
the University. Replying to a
so-called “lack of confidence” in
the Collegiate system,one College
“I have great
student
confidence in my College classes.”
Dr. Hochfield distinguished
between the residential and the
solely instructive Colleges, calling
the residential Colleges “far and
away” the most important. Five

master should be appointed to

committee member. With tenure
so difficult to obtain, he added,
many faculty would rather
concentrate on research rather
than volunteer their services to
the Colleges for little reward.
“The problem of obtaining
faculty members,” one College
member said, is “they have to
work an overload with no extra
pay.”

The philosophy of the Colleges
“non-academic,” said one
College member. The goal of the
Colleges is to help the students’
personally, he said. Claiming that
all the compromises with the
Administration have gone against
the Colleges, he said
reorganization will stiffle the
innovative spirit of the Colleges.
The problems of irregularities
and abuses of the Collegiate
system were recognized by the
external evaluation as “part of the
package" and must be accepted
by the University, noted one
College Z representative.
Committee Chairman Jonathan
Reichert said the committee has
“interacted and will continue to
interact with many factions of the
University” before making its
final report on the future of the
Colleges, which should be

If a college education is so necessary to insure a good
salary in later life, why have income distributions for high
school and college graduates become remarkably similar
over the past few years? “Education: Are There Really
Alternatives?", part of the Fenton Lecture series
sponsored by the Office of Cultural Affairs, discussed
these and other topics last Monday evening, in the Norton
Conference Theater.
The surprisingly large audience was welcomed by
Robert Fisk, professor of Educational Studies, who
introduced the guest speakers for the evening. They
included Loren Baritz, Executive vice president of Empire
State College; Harold Hodgkinson, Human Research and
Development at University of California at Berkeley; and
Maxine Green, professor of Education at Columbia
University. The panel was moderated by Leslie Fiedler,
professor of English at this University.

sense recipies explain why things happen. ‘There are a
great number of realities interpreted in a particular
cognitive style,” said Dr. Green.
“Each experience from our own vantage point is
located differently in the common world,” Dr. Green said.
We take for granted that we are all inhabitants of an
identical world, where all meanings are pre-defined. Those
who think differently from the conforming masses are
often thought of as “deviant, rebellious and often

disadvantaged.”

,

If alternate methods are to be used, she warned, we
must “work for the rejection of the world that is given.”
Both teachers and students should be conscious of their
own consciousness: “If teachers and students are
submerged in a reality, they cannot question,” she
stressed. ‘If students have lost touch with their own
perceptions, teachers can work with students to pose all
kinds of questions.” Dr. Green called educators the
“custodians of objective reality.”
Therefore, the individual must review his own
perspective of bureaucratically-controlled institutions, said

Dr. Hodgkinson began his lecture praising the State
University of Buffalo for “rising above” the standards of
its city. He said that alternatives were being looked for
now because Of adeehmng market of college students.
There will be a marked fall downward of 18-21 year-olds
attending college by 1980. He explained; ‘These are not
projections, 'we have a pretty good idea how many will go
to college then.” Since 1968, college enrollment of high
school graduates has dropped six per cent. ‘The
commitment of our youth has changed,” said Dr.
Hodgkinson.
The current selection criteria for determining who
has the talent to “make it” in the outside world is a
“fallacy,” said the Berkeley professor. In a study
completed last year, no relationship was found between
grades in school and success in later life, according to Dr.
Hodgkinson. “We can do better than our current grading
system,” he commented. Credits only measured how many
hours a student spends in class; a degree should not be the
criteria for employment, he said. ‘There must be a better
definition of merit “for describing the multiple talents of
children, he believes.

As little as possible
“Universities train people for work in the
professions” which are naturally assumed to be doctors
and lawyers, explained Dr. Baritz. But in reality, the
meaning of the word “profession” is “any activity that
provides money. Universities mean to teach the student as
little as possible,” he commented.
Vocational education is the model Dr. Baritz
advocated because “it has everything to do with the
particular ambition of the student.” Vocationalization

Fenton Lecture Series

Alternatives to education

Alternative systems
Dr. Hodgkinson described alternative methods to the
usual system currently being employed. A network of
small colleges radiating from one large university has been
an experiment in several large cities, he said. The idea of an
“education conglomerate” in which a college, a museum, a
bank and other useful services are merged to create an
entire mini-community is also a “definite although not an
immediately forseable possibility,” he suggested.
In addition to alternatives to departments and
committees, he advocates the formation of a credit bank
through which a running record of credit hours earned
would be tallied. This would enable a student to leave
school for a time without being penalized.
Advocating individualized instruction for every
student in college, Dr. Hodgkinson said the advisor was
becoming a new professional role and could not be
dismissed as lightly as it has been in the past.
New course structure
Changes in course structure were emphasized, such
as one intensive course taken every five weeks. An
integrated freshman program is another possibility, said
Dr. Hodgkinson, proposing “an environment you’ll be
invited to take part in.” The important thing to consider is
the value added to each student, he said.
Dr. Green admitted she was deeply concerned about
“what’s happening to the consciousness of human beings.”
Too many people take for granted what exists, she fears.
Even racial discrimination was once considered normal or
natural, she explained. Teachers have the responsibility to
help the individuals alter the present structure of learning
in colleges, said- Dr. Green. They should “arouse the
individuals out of their submergence of reality” and “act
in concert to remake their worlds.”
Noting a sense of “powerlessness,” Dr. Green said
educational institutions are bound to be a service of
society, and therefore must bureaucratize themselves.
‘Inequities and injustice cannot be removed by the
banishment of structure,” she said. The system must be
transformed to create learning situations. “A changing
consciousness thrusts toward and not away from the
world,” explained the Columbia scholar.
The world has been imposing patterns upon our
experience, both perceptually and conceptually, she

“Alternatives must be continually created and act in

Green’s closing remark.

•Only kidding'
Dr. Baritz generated the most response from the
audience. Sustaining a dry, comedic tone throughout his
speech. Dr. Baritz described the three common functions
of a liberal arts and sciences college; to teach the student
to think, be critical, and live richer and fuller lives. He then
said that he was “only kidding.’’
In an admittedly exaggerated fashion. Dr. Baritz
described the two pure models of a liberal arts and sciences
curriculum. The disciplinary form has a body of literature
the student must master; the non-disciplinary form is for
the student who learns, ‘Now then,” said Dr.
Baritz,
tongue-in-cheek, “the disciplinary model says the
non-disciplinary model has no standards and the
non-disciplinary form says the disciplinary fprm has no
interest in students.” They are both wrong in their

in this system. ‘The undergraduate curriculum should be
openly vocational,” he said.
He offered the student two-fold advice: find out
how to earn a living, and find out what you need to learn.

explained: “Society demands people to be trained for
work,” but there should be “more training of value-free
technicians. Knowledge is its own reward,” he concluded.
Debate discarded
Dr. Fiedler, noting that he had learned something
from the speakers, said it was impossible to hold them to
their 20-minute time periods. There was to be a discussion
between the panelists about the content of each lecture,
but none of the three speakers ventured comments. Sooner
than expected, the floor was opened to questioning.
Due to the poor acoustics of the room; most of the
questions were inaudible. Each answer was merely a
reiteration of what had been talked about earlier. Only Dr.
Fiedler added a fresh viewpoint: “The University is not an
eternal institution... Well need another institution to
carry on higher learning, but it may not occur for another
five centuries... Let’s make it a little bit better now.”

BOU

Wanted: by-laws committee Open university
a new British idea
by Gary Cohn

Faculty-dominated Colleges could mean the end of
many of its experimental programs, contend several
College observers.

Contributing Editor

The future of the Colleges is on the line.
For several years, the University has been
evaluating the Colleges, both formally and
informally, with little actual effect on the Colleges
themselves. Reports have been written, criticisms
have been made, recommendations have been
advanced, but little has happened.
The on-going evaluation by the Faculty-Senate
Committee, however, appears to have transcended
the empty rhetoric of past evaluations. Indications
are that the Colleges Committee will act decisively in
determining the future of the Colleges.
The Colleges Committee was formed during a
time of Collegiate crisis. The Colleges have been
without a permanent director for some time now,
and without adequate funding for even longer.
Additionally, faculty distrust and student apathy
towards the Colleges has been steadily increasing.
Under the chairmanship of Jonathan Reichert,
the Colleges Committee has actively and swiftly
confronted their task of evaluating the Colleges and
making recommendations to the Faculty-Senate.
Dr. Reichert has worked diligently to establish
the independence of his Committee and to assure all
segments of the University community significant
input into the decision-making process. However,
several obstacles must be overcome if the Colleges
Committee is to be successful.
The just-

released

Open door policy?
As the external evaluation stated: ‘The Colleges
have the potential to make good use of those who
lack normal academic credentials, but who
nonetheless may have riches to offer.”
At Tuesday’s open meeting, English professor
George Hochfleld, next year’s designee as chairman
of the Faculty-Senate, expressed his belief that all
the Colleges should have at least five faculty
instructors and a faculty master. The Colleges
Committee must deal with Dr. Hochfield’s
suggestion, and those of others, in an impartial
manner, carefully differentiating between notions of
faculty supremacy and definitions of instructor
competence.
2) The Reichert Committee must operate
openly in all phases of their work. Thus far, the
Colleges Committee has actively sought input. But,
they have not informed the University community
of their thinking on specific issues.
One Colleges Committee member explained that
the committee would not issue any specific
statements before its report is released to the
Faculty-Senate. Although Dr. Reichert’s explanation
that “it’s difficult to write a document publicly” has
validity, even honest “behind-closed-doors”
interaction may be seen as questionable by some

Additionally,
various members of the Colleges Committee had high
praise for the report.
The Collegiate Prospectus, a constitution of
by-laws written at the Colleges’ inception, will expire
at the end of this academic year. Therefore, the
Faculty-Senate must create a new prospectus.
Potential faculty bias
In its endeavor to complete its work by January,
the Reichert Committee has moved rapidly, often
meeting several times each week. Dr. Reichert has
actively sought input from both the Colleges and the
Administration. He arranged for immediate
publication of the external evaluation report, and
held an open meeting of the Colleges Committee
Tuesday to generate additional input from students,

poverty areas, Ms. Hagberg emphasized. “If poor
people have a lot of children, they have little chance
to get out of the poverty pocket,” she said. “It’s
these children who suffer in large families.” Neither
the poor nor the non-poor want many children, she
added.

Another problem of family planning concerns
the single parent. In one local high school, 100
pregnancies were recorded out of a total enrollment
of 600 students. “This is not unusual,” Ms. Hagberg
said, “but it’s also the 13, 14 and 15-year olds.” She
had no statistics for abortions for this group, but last
year 15,800 abortions were performed in Erie
County. The number of abortions has almost
doubled; in 1971 there were 8971. “Perhaps the
number of abortions will level .off,” she suggested,
although “this year there may be metre.” She added:
“Abortion is not a method of birth control, but with
all the methods available, why are people still getting
pregnant?”
■
Briefly discussing birth control, Ms. Hagberg
said “tubal litigation is on the rise because of early
bad publicity of the pill.” However, the levels of
hormones have been lowered in the pill and it is
“fairly safe at this point.” “There is a higher chance
of blood clotting during pregnancy than with the

told the enthusiastic audience. She stressed the
importance of sex education, especially in the
schools, but indicated that parents also required this
education. Sex education in schools was limited in
Buffalo, she said, because “the Board of Ed doesn’t
want to get involved on account of the parents.”
Some parents even “regard sex ed films as some sort
of porno,” Ms. Hagberg added.
‘The unwanted child is a problem in our
society, because it is prone to child abuse,” she
explained, again stressing the need for family
planning. One-third of the births in the United States
are unplanned, she said, which means there was no
rational decision to have a baby at a particular time.
However, “just because a baby is unplanned doesn’t
mean it’s unwanted,” she stressed. The United States
ranks 15th in infant mortality rate, she noted-

but when taken with alcohol, it causes gastric
problems and very red eyes. “Now the big push is for
vasectomy,” she said. With valve vasectomies, where
the vas deferens can be opened or closed surgically,
“the sperm have been able to find their way around
it. However, doctors are working on this,” Ms.
Hagberg indicated. The ultimate objective for a male
contraceptive is to find a blocking agent for the

pill,”

she said.

Planned Parenthood is overwhelmed by its
amount of work, and there is a waiting list of three
or four weeks for its services, she said. Planned

Parenthood is not federally-funded, but relies upon

voluntary

donations. However, “loads of federal

money for birth control” is allotted to the Family
Life Program of Erie County. These organizations
“have to be accepted by the community,” she said,
but “in Buffalo until 1969, public health nurses
couldn’t discuss birth control.”

Ms. Hagberg stressed that Planned Parenthood’s
objective is to reduce the number of abortions
through the use of birth control and education.

A college degree is no longer the guarantee it
once was in securing a good job. More and more
graduates are being forced to settle for jobs totally
unrelated to their major field of study. Throughout
the 1950’s and most of the 1960’s, a college
graduate was virtually assured several job offers, even
if his major was in East Podunkian Renaissance
Literature.
But as the job market has dried up, especially in
the overcrowded social sciences, holders of the
once-mighty BA have been forced to look for work
outside their major field of study; even many PhD’s
are waiting on tables or pumping gas.
At the Republic Steel mill in Buffalo, there are
BA’s and even some MA’s working alongside or
under those with considerably less education. A
commercial artist with a two-year degree runs steel
billets into the furnace. One 26-year old married
man only a few credits away from a Masters in
History works a jackhammer in the yard gang.
Across the country, Sociology majors are working as
office receptionists. Psychology majors as clerks,
English majors as store salesmen. There are more and
more instances of white-collar trained college

graduates working in blue-collar jobs.

Social sciences in trouble
According to the College Placement Council’s
nationwide study of 1972 graduates, 82% of the
education majors indicated they were working in
education-related jobs; 75% of those with degrees in
engineering, natural sciences and “other fields” said
they were currently in directly-related work; 62% of
the business and commerce graduates had found jobs
in their respective fields.
However, 41% of those majoring in the
humanities and social sciences were unable to find
jobs related to their major field of study. The reason
given by 43% of the men and 61% of the women for
not being in work directly related to their training
wasi simply that they “could not find a job in their
field.” Only 17% of the men and 10% of the women
said “better pay or opportunities” had lured them
into another field.

Many students unaware
Despite these trends, many State University of
Buffalo students are walking around campus, busily
writing papers and cramming for tests without giving
much thought to the end result: how useful or
useless their BA may be. Poor planning; apathy from
all levels; over-specialization; and uneven priorities
among the departments fighting for money from
Albany and often foresaking students’ needs these
are the main reasons for many graduates’ inability to
find employment in their respective fields. Students
should be made more aware of vocational choices
and opportunities available to them. Many critics
feel that this University’s departments have distorted
priorities and expectations concerning college
training and its purpose once the student leaves the

outside world are those from their departments.
These graduates are easier to evaluate, measure and
categorize as to their usefulness in the job market.
These “realists,” such as the pre-med pragmatists
aiming for the white coat, are sure society needs
more scientists, doctors and technical experts to
move ahead.
“It is part of an age-old controversy,” said
George Davanel, director of placement and career
counseling at Queens College. “There has always
been- an argument as to whether college should be a
place to train for a specific field or a place for overall
development through a general liberal arts
education.” Just because a graduate finds a job
unrelated to his major field of study “does not mean
that his education has failed him,” Mr. Davanel
noted. “A problem is the liberal arts graduate who

On one side of the plane, many faculty members
in the humanities and social sciences feel that the
purpose of education is education itself. Though
their argument is aesthetically sound, it has little
bearing on students in those fields who do not want
to pursue a PhD, write countless boring texts that
gather dust and become famous professors at great
university centers. Some want to implement their
educational skills into less visionary and more
mundane pursuits in work related to their field of
study. Some even want to provide for families and
pay taxes in the real world, and it is no secret that
there are fewer and fewer jobs available for those
majoring in the. Overcrowded social sciences and
liberal arts.

who label themselves “realists.** They feel that the

stands there with 128 credits and doesn’t know how
to fuse together all that training. He might have been
better off in a job-related field.”
Hard to gauge
But attempts at vocational guidance entail their
own set of problems, explained Ernest Schaebele,
director of career counseling and placement at City
College of New York: “There is no assurance of a
job in any field. Who would have thought back in
1964 that there would be unemployed physics
majors in 1973? It is better to let people do their
own thing.”
Should the university encourage vocational
training or educational fulfillment? How does one
define “education?” What this University needs is
not a thorough revamping of the institution,
explained
Gene Martell of this University’s
Placement Office, but “a proper definition of the
University,” its relationship with itself, and its
usefulness to
the communities outside its
boundaries. To say that any one major is more
important than any o her is as wrong as believing
that education for the sake of education will put
bread on the table. Every segment of the university
is vitally needed. Its priorities should be directed
“somewhere in the center of the plain,” Mr. Martell
where aesthetic value and mundane
usefulness can be fused together to provide a link
between the university and the community.

�DITORIAL
The real criminals
There is an ironic connection between two important
meetings held in Buffalo this week. The New York Civil
Liberties Union met Wednesday night to plan a grass-roots
drive to engineer Richard NixonV impeachment. And several
peace-oriented groups joined forces last weekend to plan
strategies to achieve unconditional amnesty for all draft
evaders and deserters.
What is the connection? During the last few years of
Vietnam, more and more people woke up to the fact that we
were being "sold" on an imperialistic war, one in which we
supported a corrupt dictatorship against a people's
movement which certainly threatened us in no way. People
began to see the inherent contradictions in killing for peace,
began to realize that no obscure political doctrine could
justify the aerial obliteration of a small Asian nation. The
same people who woke up to the moral crimes of Vietnam
received a second rude awakening during Watergate. Many
secret bombings, tapped phones and burgled offices later, the
naivete is gone; the administration in Washington is seen for
what it is: a morally bankrupt den of criminals.
These gradual realizations have changed the
black-and-white outlook which dictated that "draft dodgers"
were spineless, unpatriotic cowards who betrayed the
country to save their own skins, while our POW's, who were
after all professional, aerial death-dealers, were being admired
as fallen heroes But we have seen what blind, unquestioning
patriotism has done to our country; we have learned it is
sometimes more honorable to say "no" to the government
and follow the dictates of one's own conscience. Thus it
should be clear that those who resisted the draft were saying
"no" to an inhumane death machine; their crime was
refusing to kilt.
Today Richard Nixon, who publicly castigated those who
resisted his draft of death while secretly bombing the
peasants of a neutral country, faces impeachment for his
crimes. Yet the thousands who refused to kill in Indochina
for moral reasons are still in exile, in hiding or facing trial. It
is the ultimate paradox. Congress has passed a war powers
bill; thernightmare of Cambodia is still vivid; everyone now
decries the immorality of the Vietnam War. Yet those who
refused to kill are still being persecuted because they saw
before everyone else that the war was senseless and immoral;
they are being tried, as in Feiffer's cartoon, for "premature
morality."
This country has had a long tradition of compassionate
amnesty after every war dating back to the days of George
Washington. Only twisted Nixonian logic could warp that
tradition by branding the sons of our country as enemies and
driving them into hiding.
Congress has the opportunity to atone for its moral
idleness during ten years of death and destruction. It can
grant total amnesty to those who refused to kill for the
government of Richard Nixon, a government Congress is now
denouncing and challenging at every turn. Should Mr. Nixon
veto the
Congress should be no less resolute in overriding
that veto than it was in reasserting its war-making
responsibilities. But once again. Congress will be cautiously
eyeing public opinion before taking such a step.
For months Watergate was a purely domestic matter, but
when the secret bombing of Cambodia was revealed, people
were forced to realize that government lying extended to the
war also; that if the government lied about who it was
bombing, maybe it was lying about why we were there and a
few other things as well. Even now the lies continue: they
talk about peace in a country at war; they talk about
democracy in a military dictatorship; they talk about
freedom while the tiger cages used to torture political
prisoners captured by South Vietnam are built in America
and then shipped to Saigon for General Thieu's pleasure.
But most of all, they lied about those who resisted the
war. These people were not villains but heroes; they were not
cowardly but courageous; they were not selfish but morally
conscious while the rest of the country looked the other
way. They did not oppose the government, only the
government's inhuman, repressive destruction. Instead of
blind patriotism of the Haldeman-Ehrlichman variety, they
were true patriots; for they loved their government enough
to see what was dreadfully wrong with it, to follow their own
consciences and peacefully dissent. The real criminals are in
Washington, not those who resisted the Pentagon death
machine. To continue to hound these persons because they
believed in moral, human values at the wrong political time
would destroy any last vestige of humanitarian tradition in
this country.
Amnesty... now.

‘FILL 'ER UP, CHECK THE OIL, AND REMOVE THE BUMPER-STICKER!'

Xtirougti tlie
Looking GlaeB
by Barry Kaplan
In a moment of temporary insanity, the people
of New York State voted down a proposed
transportation bond issue that could have marked
the beginning of a rebirth of rapid transit in our
urban centers. Although the bond issue was not
priniarily concerned with rapid transit, with most of
the money to be matched by federal funds and used
for our highways, the little money earmarked for
rapid transit could have launched a new era. We have
watched our cities decay
we have polluted our
land in our frantic search for new energy we have
slipped into an automobile society that, if left
unchecked, will destroy the beauty of traveling, and
we have just watched it all happen.
Most Americans don’t seem to realize that
America once had the finest system of rapid transit
in the world. Although its birth and growth were
marked with repeated scandals, and its physical
facilities tended in many cases to be shoddyi by
1900 most major American cities were linked by a
fast, efficient rail service that made traveling an art
not a chore. The cities themselves were bound by the
iron rails of the electric trolleys
trolleys that cost
five cents a ride and reached almost every part of the
city. Los Angeles, before the automobile age made it
into a sprawling mass of smoggy jello, had the finest
transit system in the country. What happened?
The Automobile, in its ruthless ascent towards
dominance, undermined the older transit systems
and totally revised the urban landscape. While the
older American cities were spatially smaller and
more concentrated, the new urban geography, as
typified by the suburbs, is spread out and accessible
only by automobile. The Automobile needs parking
thus we bulldoze one-third of our city in
space
order to provide parking areas. The Automobile can
traverse long distances, but has trouble in our older
streets (which were not built for its gargantuan
proportions), so we abandon the old and built our
ticky-tacky suburbs. Our entire life has been
spatially directed by the car and its need for space.
As the automobile became a necessity due to
unceasing advertising and peer group pressure, the
perceived need for rapid transit systems slowly
declined. Even the poor had to have a car, even if it
meant going without other items
like food and
education. As this trend accelerated, it created a
servomechanism more cars, less rapid transit less
rapid transit, more need for cars. The airplane
effectively destroyed the passenger transport
function of the railroads, while the truckers
weakened its freight-hauling potential. This
double-barreled attack on mass transit was aided by
the development of the gas-powered bus as a
supposedly more economical way of travel. As the
gas-powered bus replaced the electric trolley,
another nail was driven into the coffin of rapid
transit.
As we stand in the remains of once-proud cities,
breathing polluted air, awaiting possible fuel
shortages, and bemoaning the impersonality of
modern life, we have the Automobile to thank. As
-

more and more shopping plazas open, with their
sterile atmospheres and canned gaiety, we have the
Automobile to thank. We lament the fate of
American suburban architecture, yet top kudoes
must go to the Automobile. Have you ever
attempted traveling in our new suburban/urban areas
without a car? Without that expensive monstrosity
you are doomed to oblivion, and in the case of many
loneliness. Supposedly one of the
aged people
reasons
for
the Watts riots back in the ’60’s
major
was the lack of mass transportation, which could
have aided the isolated black community in reaching
jobs in primarily white areas.
Our lives have been shaped by our method of
so many modern problems can be
transportation
traced to that lethal behemoth which kills at least
50,000 people a year. Americans decry the lack of
communication in modem society as they cruise in
their metal capsules insulated from other humans
and from the space upon which they travel. Our air
is fouled by exhaust pipes
Our land disfigured by
our economy is based
parking lots and highways
upon the ability to sell cars to Americans so that the
demand for rubber, glass, steel, etc. remains
constant. At least if the automobiles produced were
sturdy, economical to operate, safe to drive and
small enough to serve the function of transportation,
then criticism would be harder to justify. Yet
American cars are expensive to run, cheaply made,
and big enough for an elephant to sit in.
So America decries the fuel shortage
lowers
speed limits and prepares to ration gas. Our President
and our technological leaders plan on relaxing
hard-won environmental regulations so we can better
exploit and destroy our land. We speak about
increasing our fuel supply, but we don’t analyze
whether we really need all of that energy. Why not
spend $56 billion of federal money to construct
inter-and intra-urban systems of rapid transit? W
have spent that much so far on our system of
interstate highways, and in the long run, it would be
a lot cheaper on our society.
If we built a complete modem system of rapid
transit and remodeled our existing ones, we would
be taking a giant step towards solving many of our
urban problems as well as aiding in ameliorating the
fuel shortage. Rapid transit could revitalize many
cities, break down excessive reliance upon the car,
cut pollution, cut energy demands, dispose with
impersonality of modem travel, revise our
now-excessive waste of land space, and generally
make transportation a function of life
not a status
symbol or way of life. Transportation should be
inexpensive, not one long struggle to meet car
payments before engineered obsolescence wins out.
This country has grown too fat and has
developed a rear end almost as big as the one that
can be found on most Americans. Our life style is
unhealthy for this nation and for the world. We must
radically change if we don’t, we will probably all
wind up bumper-to-bumper on a road that never
ends. We need the car but right now we need rapid
transit even more.

�The Pete Hamill Column
may well have lied to America more than any other
President in our history. When Nixon tells the people
of America about a fuel shortage, he should also tell
them the names of all the oil and gas people who
contributed to his campaigns. When Rockefeller tells
us to cut down on speeds and save energy, he should
also remind us that his family billions came from

Now they’ve even taken away our akyline. It
had been ours since that day in 1945 when we all
raced to the rooftops of Brooklyn to see those
million lights blink on again, dazzling, joyous,
triumphant and unbelievably beautiful, signalling to
us that the war was over. 1 remember a woman
crying on the rooftop that time, knowing that the
long night of the Second World War was finished,
that New York was blazing again with its electric
beauty, that blackouts and dimouts were behind us,
that the troopships would soon be home. The New
York skyline; ours forever.
And now it’s gone again. Moving along the city’s
highways, there is a joyless sense of defeat and loss
in the town. It’s as if the malignant hand of Richard
Nixon had reached out from the bunker in Camp
David and pulled the lightswitch on all of us,
spreading his personal darkness. The Empire State
Building is a blinking red light in the dark. The great
pile of downtown buildings, Truman Capote’s
“diamond iceberg,” is a hole in the night sky. Only
the lights of the World Trade Center still burn and

because he cannot function without an enemy. He

because big business interests want detente to create

Now he can create the image of the Arabs strangling
America.

And all of it is a phony. The fuel crisis is still
another Nixon strategem and we can measure its

Dear Dr. Ketter

I have just read-in the Sunday New York Times
that the arming of campus security is again a hotly
debated issue at UB. As a recent graduate who
remembers fighting that issue while a UB student, I
feel compelled to write, for what little it may
accomplish, to urge you as University President to
reject this request for guns by campus security.
Introducing firearms on campus seems now, as
two years ago, an unnecessary hazard to the entire
UB population. Even in grave circumstances, I would

expect a University to be the last to initiate such
extreme police measures. It is difficult for me to
understand how the Administration can seriously
consider this escalatory action at a time when
campbs crime is substantially lower than previously,
for such reasons as the force’s “morale” and self
image. It is certainly not a question of whether the
force is “qualified to assume the responsibility.” It is
whether the assigning of such a responsibility is in
fact necessary in this particular community. I submit
that it is not. There must be less jeopardous ways to
bolster the force’s morale.

Whoever coined the saying, “two wrongs don’t
make a right" spoke more truth than they realized.
And those people like the woman who wrote a letter
to the editor in The Spectrum ofOctober 26, would
be well-advised to ask themselves if it applies to their
pro-abortion stand. Previously the Women’s Lib
crackpots relied on the feeble argument that a
woman had the “right to control her own body,” (as
though the right to control her body included the
right to murder the life within that body). Now,

statistics are brought into the argument to try and
justify this savage murder of the unborn. No statistic
can cover up, justify or excuse murder that is dear
to every rational person. To those people interested
in trying tp justify this monstrous practice, I say
this; those of us who are opposed to this callous,
brutal practice will no longer sit on the sidelines and
surrender to your philosophy of death. The forces of
life, of compassion, of Christian love, are on the
march. Please write your Congressman and ask them
to support the Helms-Buckley Pro-Life Amendment.

‘Raising a healthy plant’ advice
available at The Plant Parlour
A unique experience awaits any plant lover who visits
The Plant Parlour which abounds in plants not only from
this area, but in species indigenous in South America,
Africa, Southern United States, and Asia. This garden of
earthly delights is located across the U.B. campus at 3236
Main Street and is owned by Kathy and David Southall.
Ellen Greenfield, a former University student, has
been working at The Plant Parlour for a year. For a person
who likes plants, a store such as this is a must, she said. Mr.
and Ms. Southall set up shop two years ago when no florist
or other store that sold plants could satisfy their needs.
Available to the Buffalo community now is a diversified
selection of plants, With advice on how to care for them.

No flies
The miniscule Venus Fly Traps sold by the store
thrive on acidy soil and are packed in sphagnum peat.
Contrary to popular belief, Venus Fly traps don’t like to
eat flies, said Ms. Greenfield. In fact, many times the
plants will die if they are fed flies. “Normally they eat
dbout one or two flies a year, even if they’re mature,”
commented Ms. Greenfield. They are, however,
mositure-loving plants who thrive on high humidity and
water. Another tip Ms. Greenfield related; most plants
should be in small pots because most of these plants’ root
systems grow well in tiny spaces and this in turn promotes
the growth of the external part of the plant. Furthermore,
water a plant thoroughly until it drains from the bottom
and don’t water the plant again until it needs it, she
advised. Misconceptions about plant life can be cleared up
by any of the workers at The Plant Parlour. If you are
unsure of your own particular plant’s needs, consult any of
the employees. The store is open from 10 a.m.’to 6 p.m.
daily except Sundays.

Good advice
After browsing for about half an hour, one customer
came up to Ms. Greenfield and began asking questions
about the plant she held. She had picked up an Echiveria, a
plant with soft, light, green poplar-shaped leaves, about
five inches tall and exhibiting both horizontal and vertical
growth. The customer was advised to give the plant quite a

a

')

completely dry. In the winter, when the sun rays are less
direct the Echiveria probably becomes dormant and should
also abstain from water. If this precaution is not taken, the
plant will rot, warned Ms. Greenfield.
Perhaps more important than the purchase of plants
or their aesthetic enjoyment is the process of keeping them
alive. Mike, a former University student and Plant Parlour
employee stressed the importance of knowing the best
soils to use and the advantages and disadvantages of

Various insecticides.
No potting soil

He strongly advised against buying potting soil from
stores and refuses to carry them in his store. This type of
soil is too heavy and drives air away from the roots; it isn’t
reliably sterile, it doesn’t dry out well and is too expensive,
he warned. Instead, he recommends a mixture formulated
ten years ago at Cornell University. It contains sphagrum
peatmoss and'perlite, the ratio 2:1 is good for most house
plants, while the proportion 1:1 is recommended for cacti
and other succulent plants, he said. Besides being an
excellent medium, it inhibits the growth of fungus, he

added.
Second on Mike’s blacklist are aerosol spray bombs.
Freon-based spray bombs are not very effective as an
insecticide and kill the newest growth, he said. Raid and
other aerosals are also ineffective.

Plant prescription
The treatment recommended for sick plants is not
very complicated and can be simplified to four chemical
compounds. The first remedy is a homemade solution
called nicotine tea. It can be made by collecting already
smoked cigarettes. Then remove the filters which contain
nicotine. When hot water is poured over the filters and a
few drops of detergent are added to the solution, applied
to the infected leaves, is particularly effective against
aphids.

Another Plant Parlour-recommended remedy is
kelthane for use against mites. Spider mites are' a year
round pest, but this time of the year is a particularly bad
time because after the first cold spell, they migrate indoors
ought in on clothing, he said. Kelthane kills the

adult insect but- infrequently affects the egg stage
Malathion is a control against mealybugs, scale, and aphids,
but mites become immune to it.
Nicotine tea and the Kelthane and Malathion
compounds contain chemicals which pass through the soil
when the plant is watered. Another group of insecticides
called systemic insecticides (e.g. Isotox) are longer lasting
because they are absorbed by the plant. While all
insecticides should be used with caution, he warned,
systemic insecticides are particularly toxic, he advised.
This should be kept in mind particularly if one has
children or pets.

The above is an excerpt of
Desmond Morris's introduction to
his book The Naked Ape. When
the book hit the market, it caused
a great deal of controversy for
two reasons: one, it was an
explicit

study

that offended many people; and
two, it was highly erotic.

Movie looking good
with Sellers in lead
by Howie Ruben
Spectrum Arts Steff

Peter Sellers has indeed had his ups and downs in the acting world.
He is an extraordinary actor, however, able to play a variety of roles
with equal success. His latest role in the Sagittarius production. The
Optimists, is about Sam Hall, a former musical star who now roams the
streets of London playing his banjo and singing for pennies. It may well
bring him an Oscar nomination.
Sam Hall has seen better days. Now, with his dog Bella (that's
Italian for beautiful), he occupies a shabby, run-down, condemned
house. He lives in the past, constantly recollecting his old musical acts
and singing them aloud to Bella, his faithful companion.
Hall of fun
In the same part of town are two children, a girl about twelve and
her younger brother who is six. Their mother works in a factory and
only has time to care for a third child, a little baby. The father, also a
factory worker, is on the job every day of the week for extra pay. His
desire to move out of their basement flat into something a little nicer is
his incentive for the overtime work. The girl (Oonna Mullan) and her
brother (played quite adorably by John Chaffey) have to find their
own fun and they find it in Sam Hall.
Hall, unlike the kids' parents, opens their curious minds to
adventure and make-believe. Living in a lower-working class
neighborhodd is oft-times too real and harsh for young children. They
look for an escape route, someone or something to latch onto. For
these kids it is Sam Hall, curious and private, also seeking something
secure, trying to hang onto his outdated and unloving world.
Boy meets dog

The film has it's bad points; at times it drags. Not much really
happens in the film until the little boy decides he wants a dog. Hall
buys a dog for him and everything is fine until Mom and Dad find out.
The father demands that his children get rid of the dog, but they're too
fond of it, so they run away.
Stereotypical, some will say. The typical mother and father, so
caught up in their everyday struggle to make something of their lives,
that they forget about the minds and emotions of their own children.
Agreed, it it very typical. But the surrounding incidents involving the
differing personal relationships are, indeed, quite adult in nature.
There's no violence or sex, or even much profanity in this film. It's

The freaks in the novels of West (Miss Lonelyhearts)

sea environment from which something terribly
tender, often artistic awareness itself, tries to

Someone once wryly noted that no one ever
loses money underrating American intelligence.
Someone was right. American culture, American
taste, American literacy
these cannot on any
economic market be too heavily devalued. Publishers
have been known to justify the shit they shovel to
the market with "It's-what-the-public wants" smiles
on their faces and "It's-what-the-public-will-pay-for"
dollars in their pockets. The American public is no
longer a reading public. Television, film and other
cliches often found in this kind of article ordered in
a list and separated by commas have won the central
position in a field once dominated by the novel.
Post-McLuhan yawns here.
It seems to me that publishers are now in the
ideal position to prove their integrity. Faced with an
audience of disinterested faces, the publisher has the
opportunity to prove his devotion to language, to
reading, by establishing values and quality in a
cultural void. I think of those singular monks in the
Dark Ages who illuminated their manuscripts and
preserved their texts against siege, against disease,

In the years I've been reviewing books, three or
four houses have always struck me as bastions,
Knopf, Farrar Strauss &amp; Giroux, Viking and
Harcourt Brace Jovanovich (formerly Harcourt Brace

and World
houses that particularly impress me. They've
published a healthy assortment of first novels, kept a
wise eye on the avante garde, and when they've
published books for "everyone," they've done it
with taste. For example. Holt, Rinehart and Winston
publishes Micky Spillaine; Knopf prints Ross
MacDonald.
Two weeks ago I received Viking's new
catalogue. Viking is a fine house, especially for
fiction. They've published novels ranging from
Joyce's Finnegans Wake to Pynchon's Gravity's
Rainbow. They've re-released books which they
(rightly) feel should not be forgotten (they
re-released Grace Raley's perfect collection of short
fiction. The Little Disturbances of Man). I opened
Viking's new catalogue eagerly. I am a happy,

"Now comes a novel so offensive, so disgusting, so
raunchy, so profane, that it could only have been
written by the author of Little Augie's Lament In
Lucky Shuffles, Mark McGarrity, whose hard-nosed
satire is Swiftian and ruthless, insults blacks, women,

homosexuals, Slavs, the American way of life and
Dartmouth. He tells how B.O. Fasdick (of the jowls).
Geo. Moore (the fifties’ only black Yalie), Hank
Murphy (who dallies magic wands on the breasts of

mirror). Miss Cakes (of the syncromesh arse), Randy

Corporation by virtue of impredictability,
mediocrity, and a penchant for rape, bullying and
lewd displays. This sorry tale, peopled by go-getters,
hot-shot good guys, and mean, low-down bastards, is
narrated by a furious D.W. LaRocks, whose razor
rash looks like psoriasis. MARK McGARRITY is
hiding in Europe from his critics, one of whom said
Little Augie's Lament "exhibits an extraordinary
talent for characterization, for organization, and for
style" and "rich and offbeat language," while
another complained that it is "strident, depressing,
artificial.. vicious, pathological."
.

It is as if the Viking people are so dizzied by
their success with Gravity's Rainbow that they've
signed every novel with funny character names and
vulgar incidents that's come their way. Couldn't they
see that Pynchon's brilliance is .in his architecture,

his prose style, his all.-inclusiveness and not in his bad
taste which is a glut on the literary market-place.

There is no one so offensive as the person who
tries to offend. True pathology, like true genius,
comes without strain. I am horrified and fascinated
by Raskolnikov, by Chichikov, by a whole cast, in
fact, of Russian night-terrorists. Their obsessions ring
true, the reader experiences a mind intimate with the
terrors. Their prose style can be likened to a long

philosophy to reconcile human existence. The wink
is at the reader who, presumably, shares this
fascination with the vulgar.
It is essentially a new style Gothic that
emigrates from Europesans literacy exams. From the
hunchback and the ogre, American writers derive the
over-weight middle-class monster and the dandruff
sufferer.
Modern American literature traces a fascination
with the grotesque. For example, the freaks in those

This is publicity from a respected house? What
can possibly be at issue here? That human existence
is miserable and absurd? That banality and squalor
can be funny? Did we need telling? There are six
other first novels that sound like these two. They are
all the same. I will not read them. Or rather, I have
read them all too many times.
Thunder La Boom is "a wild and witty novel,
including vice-squad
with a cast of thousands
detectives, arsonists, crazies, carpet salesman, lechers
galore, lawyers and even priests giving an insider's
look at contemporary America from a very special
point of view."
Chances are we'll do nothing more than meet
these folks. The author introduces a cast of
characters both so enormous and so much larger
than life that the novel becomes a series of freaky
introductions and somewhat awkward handshakes
much like a bad party. And, like a bad party, too,
several perfunctory party games will be played. The
author plays ring-around-the-rosie with his
characters. They all fall down. Finished. Two
hundred pages.
There is serious, dangerous, important new
writing going on in the United States, in South
America, in Africa, in Europe. These Viking books
are clearly dead weight. Wit has gone by the boards,
and with it sensitivity, sympathy, love.
Replacements are vulgarity and ruthless cruelty. It is
as if these first novelists cower so at the notion of
the "sensitive first novel" that they turn their backs
on the sensual, the sexy and present us with the
razor-edge fuck; they abandon the heart and its
manifold hardenings and leave us with rigor mortis.

fo* the music's stateside failure.
One fact isthet Americans can't dance to reggae not
even dn Soul Train. Consequently, it isn't making it in the
nation's disco scene, an influence so pervasive that in less
than one summer it's already entrenched In the
predominantly white local bar scene. And it certainly isn't
coming across on the radio.
Reggae is too out of step with American culture to
take a purely imperialistic view. It cannot stand up to
something as intense and driving as Eddie Kendrick's
Truckin' or the Isley's That Lady, and it's simply too
kinetic for the more mellow things that Al Green and
Marvin Gaye have recently produced. But somehow that
doesn't answer it all.
Americans can and do dance to anything they want,
especially on Soul Train. Perhaps reggae is out of step with
the American consciousness, dancers and just plain record
buyers alike. I say this because reggae is not simply a form,
because for most part it's admittedly distinct formal
appeal is overpowered by it's incredible contextual vitality.
The music is about social change.
Roger Gorman, an auteur of biker and necrophilic film
genures and the American distributor of Perry Henzells,
The Harder They Come, predicted that there would be an
incredible explosion of reggae music across the nation this
fall, along with superstardom for Jimmy Cliff.
Gorman, referring to the success he expected Cliff to
glean from the film, claimed reggae would be solidly
instituted in American music by the winter. None of that,
you may have noticed, occurred.
The film bombed it's first run in Buffalo ( and
everywhere else ) and similarly, five months later when it
played on this campus was seen by less than 300 people.
Furthermore, it's not surprizing that as a black
exploitation film, as it was originally distributed, which
suggested political analysis, overthrow and ultimately self
sacrifice as worthwhile values rather than cynical and
gratuitous self
engrandisement, it was destined to fail.
Additionally, white audiences, drugged into complacency
by belief that any political system that can eliminate the
ugliness and oppressiveness of a Richard Nixon from their
daily lives must be okay, found little relevance in a film (
or any piece of art ) that attacked the nature of a class
structured, imperialist society.
Reggae is too vital to function in a bourgeoise culture.
Only when it's stripped of it's political associations can it
be safely assimilated into our experience. Cases in point
are J. Geils reggae hit "Give It To Me," or Paul Simon's
"Mother and Child Reunion." Good stuff, but is it reggae?
The lyrics needn't have direct political meaning, or be
explicitly political. It's the context, not the content which

Burnin' The Wailen (Island)
This is an album you should buy because you've read
a review where someone has earnestly asked you to try it.
For most of us, black or white, there is no precedent for
listening to reggae
the rock mutant of Jamaica. It is as
alien to our ears as a music from another culture can be
while stilt being based on American early rock and roll and
sung in a dialect of our language.
The Waiters remain the most interesting of the reggae
artists America has heard. Aside from Desmond Dekkar
and Jimmy Cliff they are the only Jamaican musicians
since ska music to receive even a minimum of exposure
and distribution here and that mostly via Great Britain,
where the pop music of other cultures continues to
flourish.
Bumin' is the second album to be released here. The
first, also on the Island label, entitled Catch A Fire began
selling this summer after it's winter release due to the
success of The Harder They Come. Catch A Fire was
poignant and exciting cuts like "Kinky Reggae" stand out
and remain favorites for those who've heard them only on
occasion. But while Catch A Fire was as engaging as it was
exotic, Burnin is aggressive, involving, and in some ways
alien.
There is a development between these two albums
nearly as dramatic as those one notices running between
the three Jimmy Cliff albums. Cliff's albums move from a
position of political interest, through involvement, to what
could best be regarded as reverie. ( Some reviews list his
latest album as lifeless, too slick and decadent. When one
recalls the immediacy and vitality of his first two, such
judgements are not too far off. ) The Waiters' work,
bowever;1s becoming more seriously and directly political.
It now comes out, they are Rastafarians, spiritual
underlings of Emperor Haile Selasse of Ethiopia, and
consequently, subscribers to one of Jamaica's most
effective anti imperialist movements.
Last week The Waiters quit the Sly and the Family
Stone tour to return to Jamaica. Sylvester, it seems, was
too cynical about his audiences and too, too decadent. As
Bob Marley, a central member in the band said: “America
for us is babylon mon, we come back when it fall down.'
All this suggests to me at least that there are deeper
reasons why The Wallers and reggae itself aren't making it
here in Babylon.
It was fairly surprizing to open the latest copy of
Rolling Stone and find two articles on reggae and the
Waiters respectively. The coverage itself was not strange at
all, they've been covering the music off and on since the
summer, but what was really strange were the conclusions
it reached. The general opinion was that reggae music has
more or less passed on through the ravenous cultural
appetites of America's music scene, gone the way of all
new product
such as glitter, satanism, and very soon
country innocence.
One sensed a certain disappointment in these articles,
with the culture's failure to embrace this new 'trend'
especially after the eight pages of coverage Jamaican
culture received in a summer issue of Stone.
And still there aren't any rude boys and Johnny
Too Bads running through the nation's suburbs smoking
ganga and dancing the reggae. Aside from pointing up
Rolling Stone's naive presumption that it somehow still
manages a vital function in the music business as a
mediator of taste and consciousness, the articles

Wake of the Flood Grateful Dead (G.D.)
Well kiddies, the new Dead album is outlll But don't
be in such a hurry to get your favorite lady and bottle of
Pisanno to do a little mellow down
easy on an off
night. This is a loner's album. It's polite; it's mellow, and
above all,- it's different from the Dead you're used to.
Pigpen's gone. They buried him with a tombstone called
"Bear's Choice." The Dead have moved on, leaving their
gutsy lyricism and those "layed

in

The Dead are on a new road and Wake of the Flood
sets the mood for new experiences. They have established

Musically, the album is teh tightest of all previous

complement each other at every change. The juxtaposition
of the chordings lend an even mellower fullness never
before heard on any Dead outing. Anthem of the Sun was
a foreshadowing of Wake of the Flood. It seems that in
this musical showcase there is no musical competition

extraction of a single lyric to demonstrate Marley't talent
would be too tedious; it would be so arbitrary an act They
not only produced this album, but for Jamaican
consumption, pressed their own records. They are
oonsumate revolutionary artists. They, and reggae also
seem to be what this culture is crying for. Why then does
Rolling Stone suggest they've peaked? Mora importantly
why do they have cause to?
If you need a last word of pure criticism I might
mention the production. Wallers' music is very progressive
reggae. While admittedly it's hard to make such
observations about a music which is so vital and
developing, their music does stand apart from the more
traditional "fundamental reggae" of Desmond Dekkar, The
Melodians, The Gaylads or the incredibly funky Maytals. I
would argue that the distinction primarily lies in the
Wallers' and Chris Blackwell's production. A reasonable
comparison might be the production values that Jimmy
Miller brought to the traditional sound of the Stones.
If you buy Burninn' ( you should ) and it sounds a
little too alien, pick up the Harder They Come soundtrack,
that seems to be the transitional event for most people.
But more importantly stay close to the spirit in which it
was made, and listen

makes it reggae. Reggae stripped of it's political history,
it's emergencefrom the Kingston ghetto, isn't reggae;
anymore than rock and roll that ignores it's growth out of
struggle is really rock and roll.
It reminds us of what we easily forget whenever Liza
and Alice cut a new disc or the Allman's total a $2,000
Norton, that rock and roll is folk music which was
nurtured by and grew out of social struggle. Even the
music celebrated erotic connotations of rock derive their
potency from struggles with the repression. All that good
stuff from dancing a slow grind with your baby at the high
school to the weird threatening sensations you feel when
Alice Cooper "Deep Throats" a boa.
The music itself, on this album obviously has to take a
back seat to my rantings on the entire issue. That’s largely
because the album is flawless; it permits such rantings.
Bunny Livingston, Bob' Marley, Peter Makintosh, and
Carlton and Aston "Family Man" Barrett are the finest
rock and roll band in existence. Theit lyrics, music and life
objectives are more compelling and exciting than to
.

masses.
The Dead's lyricism has always been their forte. There
is a great change in evidence here. With the passing of
Pigpen, whose ad-lib, lyrical genius will never be equaled,
the Dead rely heavily on the images of innocence, love and
purity. We will never again hear about "women out in red,
on the streets today." Those women are gone. The Dead's
new "Ladies" would rather contemplate desert sunsets and
Wordsworth's symbolism than drink Old Crow and get it
on.
Well, Dead Freaks, hope you're not disappointed with
Wake of the Floodd. It's a good album; well—organized,
well—recorded and well—produced, but it's a long way
from "Good Morning Little School Girl" and I think a lot
of us are going to miss "that" Grateful Dead.

considerable proportions for the space of their first three

having bought the first Loggins and Messina album the day
it came out and played virtually nothing else for months;

some would say that
yes,
I am not the one to judge Full Sail objectively. On the
other hand, there are those who say you don't really know
a thing until you know its history, in which case I'm just
right.
Now I bet you're thinking, "Well, I don't have to read
the rest of this, she's obviously going to say this is the
album of the century." I wish I could. Unfortunately,
depending on the viewpoint, it's great, it's by no means the
best thing he's ever done, it's the worst. He is definitely
"prostituting" his music for the sake of popularity; still,
it's the classiest dame you'll ever see. It's commercial (I

equally well. He knows how to play with and expand a
melody line in just the right places, and is always a joy to
listen to. He also has a knack for writing the type of songs
that stay with you all day. The other musicians in the
group are also of exceedingly high caliber (Al Garth, the
violinist/horn man is my favorite back-up man). However,
I cannot help but feel that Messina is the one who pulls it
all together.

Such a song is "Lahaina" ("In Lahaina, the mango is
sweet/But the centipede he crawl all over your feet").
Complete with steel drums, recorders, Carribean-accented
vocal and that overall, overwhelming AM sound. I ask
myself why such crud is allowed. They can't need the
money that badly (Lord knows they must be raking it in).
Maybe it's a goof. Luckily, there is only one other song in

speakers.
To explain. "My Music" is the new single I'm sure
you've all heard by now. The chorus goes:

"God knows that / love my music
Ain’t never gonna change my tune."
This certainty seems to be true. The song is very obviously
made from the same mold as "Your Mama Don't Dance"
(rock and roll beat, tinny guitar break, dance tempo, etc.).
’ "A Love Song" ■ "Lacy of My Heart"
"Danny's Song."
(Starts with acoustic nylon-string guitar and Kenny doing
one of those melodious, beautiful vocals with an incredible
range all the way to the bass coming in just on the last
chorus, replete with three-part harmony in the
"Same Old Wine"
background.) "Pathway to Glory"
with the heavy electric jam of "Angry Eyes" inserted in
the middle. An on and on and on. In this sense, there is
only one "new" song on the whole album. That is "Sailin'
the Wind," a very mellow song that conjures up the open
sea on a calm day and leaves you very peaceful.
The question at this point is obviously, if all of the
above is true, why bother listening to this at all?
Answer: it is always worthwhile to listen to musical
genius at work. Admittedly, this is the most commercial
point yet hit by the group and Messina. Still, some things
remain constant.
The key to enjoying this album is concentration. If
you listen while talking to someone else, or playing cards,
or getting stoned, it will sound like the other albums, and
it may bore you. Shut off the lights, close your eyes, put
the volume dial at five o'clock and stretch out comfortably
(not in that order, or you'll have some problems) and it's a
whole 'nuther smoke. Of course, this is a problem that
most popular artists/groups face. The sound that makes
them popular is the sound they stick with to stay popular
(choose anyone from Joni Mitchell to Cream), and all their
albums consequently sound the same from a distance. I
refuse to pass judgment on this at the present time.
At any rate, I think the success of this particular
group is due to Jim Messina's many-faceted talents, all very
subtle, which is why you have to listen closely. Being able
to know exactly how he's going to play, arrange,
orchestrate, engineer and record a song while he's writing
it gives him an immense advantage. What all that means on
this side of the fence is: a) every phase reinforces the
others and gives the work a very unified structure; and b)
you can enjoy the music on whichever (or all) of those
levels you are on, because it's all done with the same
amount of expertise.
Any song provides a good example, but I'll use "You
Need a Man" for now. The mood is deep purple (the color,
not the group). It's in a rapid 4/4 timing, with horns, bass,
guitar and drums all opening the song with different
rhythm patterns, all recorded at different decibel levels.
The overall effect makes your body twitch unless you tap
your foot or rock your body or release the energy through
some specific channel. Kenny Loggins sings the lyrics (with
his usual degree of expressive, dynamic excellence), which
are of the "me Tarzan, you Jane" variety, but which also
undisputedly enhance and fit the music.
"You need a man
One who is long enough to last
And likes to take it slow and easy ..."
Then comes the break. OUCH! (soo subtle). Realty, this is
one group where a sensitive stereo is a necessity
there
are tracks that are so faint they're not even meant to be
heard (just kind of felt). He has to use at least a
sixteen-track board. He shifts the lead from some reed
instrument (I haven't figured out yet whether it's an alto
flute or an oboe) to harmonica so smoothly you don't
even know it's happened for two bars. Then he does the
same thing from harmonica to violin. All the while, in the
background, all sorts of tone colors are floating around
(but never conflicting) various percussion instruments,
horns, guitars, piano, achieving an extremely deep,
three-dimensional sound. Just when you start getting
bored, Messina and Al Garth go into an energetic double
lead (guitar and violin) that really makes you sit up. After
that, a few smooth modulations, a radical change in tempo
and well, we'rs into another song by now.
I guess all you Kenny Loggins fans must be pretty
riled up by now. OK. Loggins is definitely a top-notch

this category; "Cornin' to You," which is very reminiscent
of 'Thinkin' of You," which is another song I can't believe
they recorded willingly.
However, as I have said, even if the other songs have
some really great things about them, they all suffer from
the same problem in some degree.
If this review has confused you, at least you know
how I feel. You hear a heavy bass line. You laugh (you've
heard it so many times before). You think, "What, is he
kidding?" Just then, a mean-as-hell horn riff blasts you out
of your seat. You hear Kenny Loggins singing, "I want to
sing you a love song." You think, "Oh, God, how corny!"
Five hours later you're still humming the tune. Even a song
like "My Music," which is obviously 100% calculatedly
aimed at -the teeny-bopper population, right down to the
lyrics (" .
hey, little girl, will you meet me at the
school-yald gate . ..")

would be at a loss sometimes, erupting with hell-bent
screams, voraciously attacking all the material world, but
in the end always returning to the peaceful way.
In the band helping create that music were Lonnie
Liston Smith and Cecil McBee, both inherent in the sound.

Page fourteen The Spectrum Friday, 16 November 1973
.

Lonnie developed a technique of ringing out every note in
the fullest, richest chords, creating a cushion of sound, and
Bee, super bassist, was equal as an innovator
just ask
Stan Clarke. Together with Pharaoh they revolutionized
music, and with his guidance they came to comprehend it.
Recently they split, Cecil going with various bands like
Music Incorporated and Norman Connors' original group,
Lonnie travelling with Gato Barbieri. More recently,
Lonnie put together a group called the Cosmic Echoes,
which included Bee. That was two years ago. Now there is
a first album, called AstraI Travelling.
It's a beautiful piece of art. It sounds exactly like
(almost) Pharaoh Sanders, not surprisingly, but there is a
difference, a certain sophistication or cosmic awareness,
like a lack of humor, which in its own way helps
compensate for the fact that Pharaoh does not make a
guest appearance. In his place is George Barron, who is
impressive in his ability to retain his identity, not se easy
considering the context. Imagine playing with McCoy,
Jimmy, and Elvin on Psalm and trying not to sound like
Coltrane. Yet he succeeds easily and contributes heavily to
the total sound and direction. His restraint from delving
into typical bop runs makes much more sense than most of
his contemporaries. Pharaoh and Frank Wright excluded.
Cecil's playing is perfect, as he is perfectly suited for
this type of music, and he serves as Lonnie's third hand.
Lonnie, meanwhile, runs the gamut of different textures
and moods, making use of the wall of percussion available
in Mtume, Sonny Morgan, David Lee, and Bada Roy,
whose wife adds the tamboura, a touch of Eastern
mysticism with its transcendental drone, notably on In
Search Of Truthh a mellowed-out minor sway in utmost
sensitivity. None of the songs serve as a forum for
individual solos, rather they are conceptual structures
contrasting different textures, weaved together by the
piano, flowing gently in waves that trickle and caress.
Lonnie Liston Smith's style is truly unique, and would be
universally loved if people would only listen. He's so pure,
a force of totally positive energy, that no one even
approaches his sound.Astra / Travelling is one of his compositions, and its
presentation here is more peaceful, more special than on

Play is analogy ofRichards
by Stephen Aminoff

rungs on a ladder. And what of those who get killed
or destroyed? As Nixon himself once put It,

Spectrum Ant Staff

Now that the Watergate monster has shown
itself to truly strike at the core of this country's
political system, the alternative theater has been
running a desperate race against the headlines to put
it all into perspective. It seems that shows like New
York's recent off-off-Broadway offering The
Watergate Follies of 1973 need constant re-writing
with each passing day of revelations.
Hence it would be apparent that a play about
the political life of Richard Nixon which opened on
October 18 should be disastrously dated by this
writing. However, the Toronto Workshop production
Richard Third Time succeeds because it energetically
deals with the man's thought patterns, admirably
depicted as an invariably important factor in all of
the President's decisions.
Richard Third Time is first and foremost an
analogy between the political existences of Nixon
and Richard II. Writers Steven Bush and Rick
McKenna have skillfully interwoven Shakespeare's
text with some of Dick's own remarkable script from
over the years.
Living with THEM

McKenna recalls how the idea came to him: "I
was discovering my acceptance of (political) external
controls; that I would be manipulated as long as I
allowed myself to be. (I need THEM to run my life
because I am irresponsible . .) My point is that it
cannot happen if we don't allow it but we are still
.

allowing it."

In the best Bretchtian sense, the characters of
this play recognize the dramatic function which they
serve. The action proceeds like a huge comment on
things we have seen on television or in more
capsulized versions such as Emile de Antonio's
fascinating documentary, Milhouse.
The play opens with a seemingly divine
inspiration coming to Richard that a great "Commie
scare" campaign would be his stepping stone to
power. Names like Jerry Voorhiss, Alger Hiss and the
NUAC hearings, Helen Gahagan Douglas, the
Rosenbergs are looked at by Richard as so many

"Political positions have always come to me because
I was in the right place at the right time. It all
depends on what the times call for."

Powerful puppet
Eisenhower is seen as a puppet dangled on
strings by men in dark cloaks at the 1952 Repulican
National Convention. The famous "Checkers
Speech" is shown to be little more than a vaudeville
routine. Even John Kennedy is held up for criticism
in the play. There was clearly a rare kind of analysis
and, perhaps, courage at work in the building of this
show.
The production itself was a rather tight piece of
verbal and visual choreography. Director George
Luscombe keeps everything very economical in the
theatrical sense of the term. The stage was set with a
simple blood-splattered rake which was imaginatively
used for everything from a coronation to a
nightmare sequence.

Political demands
This sort of production, paced very tightly,
made very particular demands on the actors which
Alan Royal as Richard and Len Doncheff as
Buckagnew fulfilled extremely well. They were able
to achieve the quick, terse quality of political
intrigue without sacrificing their own believability.
Other actors in the cast fared less welt within this
admittedly rigorous framework and the audience
received political cartoon characters.
This play, which includes a no-nonsense look at
Nixon's relationship to Big Business and the Mafia,
needs to be thought of as a very Canadian approach
to a man whose position has a daily effect on their
lives. It's a ruthless, probing examination and one
which needs to be made by people everywhere.
Incidentally, Richard Third Time is an excellent
example of the quality alternative theater which the
Toronto Workshop has been offering for 15 years.
Even though this fine show has closed, any trip to
Toronto will be enhanced by a visit to their theater
just off Yonge Street, right in the heart of things.

Exciting plays for children
by Shelley Grosiberg
Spectrum Arts Staff

Anyone sitting in Little Daemon Theater

(situated on the Rosary Hill College campus), is
surrounded by the squealing and laughter of
"little people," aged 5-tO; the prevalent mood is
one of restless anticipation. Out of the audience

written by Brian Way.
,

Theater of Youth (TOY) Company is a
group of actors (former Rosary Hill students)
who are concerned, about the quality of, and
opportunity for young people to encounter
professional entertainment. Their goal is to
expose children to good theater at an early age
by presenting background of progressively
sophisticated productions. Hopefully, the
Children's Theater appreciation is subsequently
developed on an individual level, rather than
tnrough hackneyed pseudointellectualism.

Dreamy team
The Mirrorman is a delightful fairytale which
is complex in both theme and educational
theory. Principally, it speaks of the value of
cooperation. Interspersed throughout the play is
the demand for audience participation. Various
actions and phrases are used throughout the play
to build a repertoire of "plunk-ocf, pom-pom,
hmmm," etc., yielding both the climax of the
plot ard reciprocity between actors and
audience.
Children are really excited when there is
occasion to aid grown-ups. Uninhibited, kids
shout from their seats to help the actors. This can
sometimes, of course, cause problems; a child
may tell the actors something they are "not
supposed to know."

"You have to be really quick," said Margar

For germ from the

Legal Dope
by Hilary Lowell

MP'r i»,

•

Last Sunday I awoke to the ringing of my telephone. The
answering service from the Student Legal Aid Coinic had called because
they had received an emergency phone call from a student named Eric.
I called Eric and he rather frantically explained that his landlord was
giving him and his two roommates until 3 p.m. to get out of their
apartment. The alternative was that he would physically throw their
belongings onto the street.
According to Eric, he and his roommates had given notice, on the
second of the month, to their landlord, Mr. B., that they would be
moving out on the 30th of the month. Eric continued that if they
couldn’t vacate by 3 pjn. that day, the landlord would let them remain
only if they paid $175 rental rather than their usual $100 rental. As I
have learned by handling numerous cases in the Student Legal Aid
Clinic, landlord/tenant disputes are often clouded by anger in which
neither party can visualize the other side of the coin.
Mr. B. was indeed an angry man. Before I finished explaining who I
f
was, he was already telling me of the “filth these boys live in,’ of the
and
more.
He
ripped wallpaper, damaged furniture, piled up garbage
claimed that he needed 30 days to get the apartment back in rental
condition, and that he wasn’t going to lose a month’s rent because of
the present tenants.
The landlord and the tenants were both legally wrong. A tenant
paying on a month-to-month basis, without a lease, must give his
landlord notice of his intention to leave a full 30 days before the end of
the last month of their residence. Therefore, the duty of the tenants
was to pay rent for an additional month because they were delinquent
in providing the landlord with notice of their intention to vacate.
More importantly, though, the tenants had a responsibility to
maintain their apartment and return it in the same condition they
received it, minus reasonable wear and tear. The landlord could not
legally raise their rent without giving sufficient (one month) notice.
Furthermore, the landlord would be liable for his actions if he evicted
the tenants without following certain legal procedures, which would
take at least three weeks. Barring all of these legal facts, I managed to
get the crisis settled in a rather practical manner.
The landlord, realizing that a lawsuit to collect for damages would
be more expensive then paying for the damages himself, agreed to let

the boys remain until the end of the month. In return the tenants
promised to clean up the apartment and to repair whatever damages
they could
Cases such as this one are a rarity. As a rule, the Student Legal Aid
Clinic handles no problems over the phone. Annually 3500 cases are
handled by the Clinic and of this number, approximately 30 per cent
deal with landlord/tenant problems. Other messes that students have
managed to get themselves involved in range from automobile accidents
and court procedures, to marriage, divorce and custody suits, to petty

t larceny,

drug arrests, and assault. In instances where a student gets
arrested, the Clinic maintains a 24 hour-a-day answering service and a
bail fund. The services of the U.B. Bail Fund are offered on a limited
basis to students whose bail monies cannot be raised any other way.
Hopefully, through the provisions of the UJ8. Bail Fund, a University
student will not have to undergo the anguish of time spent in jail. Also,
students will not be forced to miss classes.
The Clinic operates to assist students with legal problems which do
not require the immediate retention of a lawyer. Should a lawyer be
necessary, the Ginic is prepared to refer the client to a local
professional whose area of expertise includes the particular problem
involved. Additionally, arrangements can be made through the Ginic
for free consultation with a member of the N.Y. State Bar Association.
This professional works very closely with the Clinic’s ten-member staff
and is responsible for the high degree of success and acceptance that
had developed in the recent past.
A portion of the Clinic’s staff is comprised of students from the
University’s law school. One of the functions of these law students is to
prepare and present the defense of students who have been summoned
to appear before the Student Judiciary or the University (fearing
Commission. They, like all members of the Cjinic’s staff, are
responsible for completion of extensive research projects. Thus far,
these research projects have resulted in the publishing of a*“Drug Law
Fact Sheet” and a “Buffalo Housing Handbook.” Both of these
publications are available in the Ginic (Room 340, Norton Hall) and
are distributed free of charge to any member of the University.
The Ginic now has the additional service of a Notary Public. He
will be available free of charge to all students during normal Ginic
hours.
If you have any questions or need “legal Hist aid,” do not hesitate
to call the Ginic it 831-5275, or drop by Room 340, Norton Hall.

One such article appeared in the through the Open University
Educational Significance of the merits our respectful attention.”
Future Magazine. As the Shanes
“Although it will be a struggle,
wrote after their interview with in a mobile and flexible society,
Mr. James: “What is taking place we must build in new educational
flexibility,” Mr. James stated.
There are four pilot programs
being developed to see if the Open
University method can be related
to the American credit-hour
system. Rutgers, University of
Maryland, University of Houston
and California State University at
San Diego all have open programs
in existence.
Power systems
Americans may be hesitant to
enroll in such a university. “In the
United States, there is a distinct
advantage to having graduated
from certain ‘name’ schools, much
like having gone to your Oxford,”
said Mr. James. “Do you see this

as a disadvantage to the Open
University graduates?” asked the
Shanes. ”1 think all societies have
their power systems,’2 replied Mr.
James.
However,' Mr. James sees a
trend to break-down the
prestigious school systems: “We
are moving into a world where
universities other than your Ivy
League institutions provide the
vast number of well-qualified
persons.” He continued: ‘The
stranglehold of the old systems is
disappearing. Furthermore, our
highly motivated, extremely
dedicated part-time adult student,
who has to organize his studies
with his work life and with social
and domestic responsibilities, will
have little trouble in being seen as
superior to the full-time
18-to-21-year-old student at
conventional universities.”

Lines to be juggled
Bull coach Ed Wright plans to
juggle his lines for the Clarkson
game in an effort to get mote

Today almost everybody is getting into photography
And it’s not the snapshot variety. People are doing
sports stories, nature stories, portraits—you may
even have a friend who’s doing photographs through
a microscope. Or a telescope.
You also know that everybody has his own idea
about which camera is best. That’s why it's important
for you to know about the Canon FI. Because it’s the
system camera that's fast becoming the favorite of
professionals. And the new status symbol among
photography enthusiasts.

The whole F-1 system includes over 40 lenses and
200 accessories. It s capable of doing virtually
everything in photography So whatever idea you
have for a picture, the FI has the equipment to make
sure you get it.
Because it was conceived from the beginning as a
system, it works as a system. All the elements are
quickly and easily interchangeable. No matter which
lens or accessory you use with the FI body you won’t
have the feeling that something has been

"tacked on.”
What's more the FI is comfortable to handle.
Years ofresearch went into the design of the FI body
and placement of controls so your fingers fall
naturally into place. You’ll appreciate this comfort
when you're on assignment. It’s also an important
thing to keep in mind if you're investing in a camera
you plan to keep a long time.
Canon has been in the optics industry over 37
years. We make microscope equipment, amateur and
professional movie cameras and TV lenses. It's this
experience that helps make our stiH cameras the best
selling cameras in Japan. In America, it's justa matter
of time.
See your dealer for more information. He'll also
show you Canon s other SLR cameras, like the Fib
and TLb Both of which offer accurate metering, easy
film loading, a widerange of lenses and the same
standard of engineering that goesinto the F-1.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Right-to-life amendment faces abortion in House
by Linda Wagner
Spectrum

Staff Writer

The abortion controversy is far from over. In the face
of a Supreme Court decision last January legalizing
abortion throughput the United States, anti-abortion
forces are now mobilizing to overthrow that decision by
passing a Constitutional amendment.
Other forms of anti-abortion legislation, most of
which limit abortion practice, have been introduced into
the House of Representatives and the Senate.
In the Buffalo area, both anti-abortion and
pro-abortion forces are making grass roots efforts in the
renewed battle. Their main strategies are to encourage
people to contact their legislators and to “educate” the
public by presenting their positions in public forums.
Thirteen states have passed resolutions urging
Congress to pass a Constitutional amendment prohibiting
abortion. While there have been over 20 separate bills
introduced in Congress calling for a Constitutional
amendment, three main proposed amendments are
receiving the most attention.

busing; controversies which continue to rage in states
despite a definitive High Court ruling.
Senate hearings on all the proposed anti-abortion
legislation are expected early next year. After these
hearings take place, the bills will be sent to sub-committees
for review, placing them in essentially the same position as
they are now, according to Mr. Landes. If a proposed
Constitutional amendment was passed by both the House
and Senate, it would still require ratification by
three-fourths of the state legislatures to become a law.
“Until the talk of impeachment broke, there was more
correspondence to Capitol Hill about abortion than any
other issue,” said Mr. Landes. The large majority of this

‘From conception on’
A “right-to4ife” amendment sponsored by Rep. Larry
Hogan (D., Md.) seeks to insure that due process and equal
protection are offered to an individual “from the moment
of conception.” Mr. Hogan has introduced a “discharge
petition,” which would move his proposed amendment
directly to the House floor, bypassing review by the
judiciary committee, and taking priority over all other
business. This petition requires 218 signatures (a majority
of the House). It has received approximately 35 signatures
to date, and faces a December 1974 deadline.
Senator James Buckley (Con., N.Y.) has proposed a
Constitutional amendment that says the word “person” as
uaed in tho Fifth and Fourteenth amendments shah apply
to all human beings, “including their offspring at every
stage of their biological development.” This amendment,
co-sponsored by seven other senators, allows abortion only
when “continuation of the pregnancy will cause the death'
of the mother.”
Some can refuse
A third bill sponsored by Virginian Rep. G. William
Whitehurst says that nothing in the Constitution shall bar
any state “from allowing regulating, or prohibiting the
practice of abortion.” This amendment would return
jurisdiction over abortion to the states, essentially the
same policy that was followed before the Supreme Court
decision last January.
Hospitals or clinics can presently refuse abortions on
the grounds of conscience. In accordance with the Church
Amendment to the Health Programs Extension Act, any
hospital or health care facility can refuse to perform
abortions or sterilizations if these procedures are against
the beliefs of medical or administrative personnel.
An amendment to the Legal Services Corporation bill,
passed by the House and awaiting Senate action, prohibits
legal aid lawyers from representing a woman suing a
hospital for refusing her a non-therapeutic abortion. Also,
a proposed amendment to the Social Security Act would
prohibit Medicaid payments for abortions except in cases
of medical necessity. It has been argued that these
proposed bills, if passed, would make it difficult for a
woman with a low income to obtain an abortion.

Discharge petition
No success in the near future is foreseen for the Hogan
bill, according to Paul Landes, legislative assistant to Rep.

said.

“We want to be called ‘pro-life’, not ‘anti-abortion*,”
said Helen Greene, chairperson of the Western New York
Right to Life Committee. Although the NRLC is not
specifically backing one bill, “States’ rights won’t answer
anything," said Ms. Greene. “We are eager for hearings on
any bill to protect all life, including that of the fetus, the
elderly, the mentally retarded,” she added. Noting her
group’s exceptional success in the Buffalo area, Ms. Greene
said: “The greatest majority of people in this area are

pro-life.”

The people’s voice
Both the pro-life and pro-abortion groups are
depending on popular support for their positions. “It’s got
to be the voice of the people. The law must be a reflection
of what the majority of people feel,” said Ms. Greene.
While the various Right to Life groups are autonomous,
they “were forced to gather together as one on a national
level in the face of the Supreme Court decision.”
“We’re not trying to be spectacular, loud, or nasty,”
said Ms. Greene. “We can only influence those legislators
that we vote for,” she added. Ms. Greene said she did not
know of any pro-life lobbying groups in Washington.
Most Rev. Edward D. Head, Bishop of Buffalo,
released a statement from the National Conference of
Catholic Bishops in late October reaffirming its
commitment to a Constitutionalamendment granting fetal
rights, and urging early hearings on the amendments
pending in Congress. The statement encourages individuals
to contact their legislators and suggests the development of
“public information programs on the subject of abortion.”

Funding questioned
There have been disputes about the funding of the
pro-life forces. “We’re quite sure they’re funded by the
Catholic Church,” Ms. Bettencourt said. “We are not being
supported by any organization,” Ms. Greene responded.
“Right now we don’t have a penny.” However, she
explained that the New York State Right to Life
organization has just written to the Bishops of the United
States and to various rabbis asking that they financially
support the pro-life forces. “This is the first time we have
asked for help from anyone,” she emphasized.
Asked about the source of income for the
pro-abortion movement, Ms. Bettencourt answered:
“We’re not really funded. We’re pretty broke. We finance
it ourselves individually.”
Ms. Greene explained the basic argument: “We are
protecting life
the life of the fetus, of the aged, of
mongoloid infants, of those about whom the claim is made
that they do not have a meaningful life.”
-

Yes or

no

“We are talking about the life of the child, as a whole
person,” she continued. “There either is life or there is no
life. An unborn child is not fully developed. But neither is
a paraplegic. Should a paraplegic be denied his legal rights
because he is not fully developed? As long as there is life,
we have to protect it,” she concluded.
Pro-abortion advocates consider abortion as part of
every woman’s right to control their own bodies, Ms.
Bettencourt explained. The Right to Life groups argue that
“potential life has more rights than actual life,” she said,
ignoring the rights of the mother as to whether or not she

wants to have a child. Explaining that laws prohibiting
abortions were originally devised to protect women from
unsafe abortions, Ms. Bettencourt added; “Abortion laws
never prevented abortions. They only prevented safe
abortions. Many women died or were maimed in the
process of nondegal abortions.”

Citizen fetus
The psychological difficulties and higher delinquency
rates among unwanted children, and the reduction of
maternal deaths resulting from childbirth, are further
reasons for permitting abortions, Mr. Bettencourt said. In
addition, granting the fetus equal protection under the law
would create a new sphere of legal difficulties with regard
to the status of the “fetus citizen,” said Ms. Bettencourt.
Regarding the Church amendment to the Health
Programs Extension Act, Ms. Bettencourt said: “How can
an institution be allowed to set a policy against abortion
for all of its employees when only tome of them are
anti-abortion?” She does not believe that this legislation
had significantly restricted abortion practices in Buffalo.
Little action in Congress is expected on the proposed
anti-abortion amendments until next spring when he»ri«»g«
may be held. Meanwhile, it appears that the battle between
pro-abortion and pro-life forces will continue to rase for a
longtime.

Assassination a conspiracy?
by Richard Deep
Spectrum

Staff Writer

“It is our contention that Lee Harvey Oswald was not
the lone assassin. We feel it is extremely unlikely that he
fired a single shot. It follows then that the Warren
Commission’s report can be branded ‘political truth’ and
that their conclusions are plainly and simply a lie,” said
David Williams at the unveiling of a most provocative series
of slides and Him on the assassination of John F. Kennedy
in Dallas, Tecas on November 22, 1963.
Using information compiled by various independent
investigators and visual evidence provided by the
Washington, D.C. Committee to Investigate Assassinations,
Mr. Williams and his partner Harvey Yazijian intrigued,
astounded* and captivated the more than 600 persons
gathered in*the Moot Courtroom of O’Brian Hall last
Friday. As part of a larger organization called
Assassination Infromation Bureau based in Cambridge,
Massachusetts, their purpose is to generate (or re-generate)
questions in people’s minds as to the validity of the Warren
Commission’s report on the Kennedy assassination. That
report, officially accepted by President Lyndon Johnson,
concluded after ten months of study that Lee Harvey
Oswald and Jack Ruby had each- acted alone and the case
appeared closed.

Fatal day

targets, with as much time
as they needed to aim their first shot. Only one agent
could even fire the three rounds required. According to the
Warren report, Oswald had eight-tenths of a second to aim
his first shot!
The Secret Service tried the same thing in Dallas from
the spot where Oswald fired his first shot. It was
discovered that his view of the car from the Depository
window was totally blocked by an oak tree.
Messrs. Yazijian and Williams continued to strengthen
their theories corrections with appropriate slides. A photo
of the Book Depository window from which Oswald
allegedly fired revealed a blurred object. “This photo was
taken two and one-half seconds before the shooting,”
narrated Mr. Williams. “A photo-optic analysis of the
object by ITEK Corp. proved conclusively that the object
was a box.”
The scene changed to a diagram of President Kennedy
and Governor Connally in the limousine. A red line
indicated the trajectory of the bullet the Warren
Commission claimed passed through President Kennedy
and injured GovernorConnally.
“As we can see,” said Mr. WilliamsWcasti'cally, "fired
from above the President, the bullet enters his neck at a
slightly upward angle, takes a right turn, goes downward
into Connally, breaks his fifth rib, his wrist in seven places
and lodges in his thigh. Truly an amazing bullet!”
Messrs. Williams and Yazijian utilized over a hundred
slides to point out unexplained events, conflicts in stories
and improbable incidents.
Mr. Williams elaborated on a picture of Oswald, where
he is shown holding the supposed murder rifle and two
pro-Communist newspapers. “Strangely enough,” he
noted, “there seemed to have been two suns in the sky
that day.” The shadow that Oswald cast went one way and
the shadow of the stairs he was standing next to went the
other way, Mr. Williams explained. In Oswald's own words,
“that’s my head but that’s not my body.”

Oswald’s, at larger, non-moving

J.f.K.

Starting with a brief slide summary, Mr. Williams
recreated the events that took place on that fatal day in
Dallas. President Kennedy went to Texas at the urging of
his Vice-President Lyndon Johnson and Texas Governor
John Connally to strengthen his marginal political base
there. His plane arrived at Love Field at noon. A
motorcade, with the President riding in an open-top
limousine, proceeded through the streets of Dallas enroute
to a luncheon speaking engagement at the Dallas Trade
Mart. While passing through Dealy Plaza, shots rang out,
killing President Kennedy and wounding Governor
Conhally. The apparent origin of the gunfire was the Texas
School Book Depository.
At 1:16 p.m. in the Oakcliff section of Dallas, Officer
J.D. Tippit was shot and killed in pursuit of a suspect. The
suspect was apprehended in a Texas theater at 1:50 p.m.
Lee Harvey Oswald, a reputed leftist known to have spent
time in Russia, was charged with the Tippit slaying.
Immediate assurances came from Washington that his man
had acted alone in the assassination of JFK.
Two days later, before a national television audience
and despite tight security, Oswald was shot to death by
night club owner Jack Ruby. Ruby told police he didn’t
like the smirk on Oswald’s face and wanted to spare Jackie
and the kids the ordeal of the trial.
The Warren Commission concluded from the events
that occurred on November 22 that three shots were fired,

their origin was the Texas School Book Depository, all
three shots came from behm ;he President, and one bullet
had passed through President Kennedy and injured
Governor Connally.
Ten minutes into their hour-and-a-half program, Mr.
Yazijian set into motion the long-suppressed Abraham
Zapruder film, twelve seconds of “the most important
piece of p'ictographic evidence” ever filmed. “It is a
bootleg-film in the true sense of the word,” explained Mr.
Williams. “It is a copy of a copy. The grain quality is very
bad.”
The film started with the Presidential motorcade
moving down Elm Street. Mr. and Mrs. Kennedy were
seated in the rear of the first car, Governor Connally and
his wife in front of the Kennedys. The viewers lost sight of
the car as it disappeared behind a highway sign. When the
car emerged, John Kennedy was starting to reach for his
throat, the first indication he had been shot. Con~ i! y.
yet showed no reaction. As JFK’s hands reached his
throat, Connally started to turn to his right. Then he
abruptly turned left, the first sign that he too had been hit.
As the President started to slump into the arms of his
wife, he was hit by the fatal bullet. The film showed very
clearly the right front side of President Kennedy’s head
exploding into a mass of blood and skull fragments
shooting six feet into the air. His entire body was thrown
backward with the force of the impact. Finally, Secret
Service agent Clint Hill climbed onto the back of the
limousine as it sped out of camera range to Parkland
'

Hospital.

With almost blatant disregard for those with weak
stomachs, Yazijian re-ran the film several times in
slow-motion and stop-action, concentrating on the fatal
shot. Their purpose was two-fold. By utilizing the
mechanics of the camera, it was possible to determine the
length of time between the first and final shots. It was also
possible to determine the general direction from which the
shots were fired by the movement of the President and the
Governor after they were hit.

Impossible feat
“Knowing that the camera moves at 18.3 frames per
second, and that the entire assassination took place in
about 93 frames, the total time was therefore about five
seconds,” explained Mr. Williams. They contended that
Oswald, who was a rather poor shot at best, could not
possibly have fired those shots in the allotted time with
the supposed murder weapon. The rifle, an Italian-made
Mannlicher-Carcano, was a bolt-action model owned by
Oswald and commonly called “the humane rifle” because
it could never hurt anyone. In addition, Oswald’s gun had
a bad scope mounting.
Sharpshooters with capabilities far beyond Oswald's
tried to duplicate his feat in an FBI re-enactment. They
were unsuccessful, shooting from a position half as high as

In the question and answer period that followed, the
obvious question came: “Who was responsible?” Messrs.
Williams and Yazijian said they didn’t know. They
suspected a conspiracy, but did not have enough evidence
to name anyone in particular. When asked if they
suspected Richard Nixon, Mr. Yazijian replied; “I’m not
going to tell you that President Nixon was involved until I
have proof up to here,” stretching his arm to its full length
above his head.
Conclusive evidence has been almost impossible to
obtain because 15 of the 18 key witnesses to the
assassination are now dead. Based on their average life
expectancy, the odds against this happening are one
hundred thousand trillion to one. Of the fifteen who died,
five were murdered, three died in motor vehicle accidents,
three from suicide, two of natural cuases, one from a slit
throat and one from a karate chop on the neck.
People came from as far away as Rochester to listen
and see who killed John F. Kennedy. Judging from the
almost two hours of questions, if the aim of Messrs.
Williams and Yazyian was to generate questions in people’s
minds, they accomplished it.

Students stand on no arming

“The students of this campus
are unequivocably opposed to
guns of any sort, in any number,

sometime ago at a meeting when

A proposal for student

The resolution, calling for one

according to former GSA

the faculty's

contract with the state makes it
illegal to have students voting on

questions of tenure and
promotion, Mr. Poveromo said.
‘Their bargaining agreement calls
for peer review, and voting
students do not constitute such

procedural argument,” it would
initially be more important to
“have articulate people there to
sway votes,” he said.
Faculty opposition
Dr. Ketter is reportedly
unopposed to the idea, but
opposition is expected from the

approved, GSA and SA would
submit a list of nominees to
Resident Ketter, who would then

for the arming of two
plainclothed Security officers per

Security force consists of five
plainclothed investigators per
shift, two uniformed lieutenants
and one plainclothed captain.
Since the guidelines stipulate that
investigators will not be armed,
only one plainclothed captain
would be available for arming.
This solution is “hardly an

said Mr. Palefsky. He believed the
subcommittee began its
deliberations with the faulty
premise that “guns are needed on
this campus, when it appears from
the recommendations that none
of the sub-committee members

Mr. Palefsky stressed the

since the original subcommittee
convened almost three years ago.
The campus crime rate is down 38

still on the increase, he explained,
crediting the decrease “to the

has done.” Specifically, he
attributed the change to policies

A study of the university

“The doctrine of racial supremacy is with us
again. New studies claiming to demonstrate
‘scientifically’ the old notion that black people are
inferior, have been rapidly spreading in professional
literature, texts and respectable popular magazines.
Even more ominously, it is now being taught as fact
in classrooms across the country."
This is the opening paragraph of a resolution
against • racism, signed by five of its University’s
faculty members. Professors James Lawler
(Philosophy); Ann Haskell (English); Roger Woock
(chairman of the Department of Social Foundation);
Curtis Mettlui and Sidney Willhelm (Sociology)
signed the. statement along with a number of
distinguished scholars from across the country.
Conference on racism
The resolution is associated with a conference
on Racism and the University, being held at the
Loeb Center of New York University this weekend.
The conference will include both speeches and
workshops on topics like I aand Genetics; The
Culture of Poverty and Inequality of Education.
Racist philosophies which the universities
allegedly espouse through teaching will be studied.
The conference will also focus on racism within the
structure of the universities themselves: issues like
admissions, hiring, curriculum and teacher training.
Finally, the discussions will study the rationalization
and justification of racism in certain government
policies such as economics, medicine, social welfare
and the law’s relation to the media.
Several of Buffalo’s signees are expected to
attend the conference, designed to develop methods
to combat the propagation of racist ideas. Dr.
Willhelm feels the new “racist studies” are
“one-sided in that intelligence tests show whites to
be mentally superior only because the tests are
designed solely by whites.”
The doctrine of racial supremacy is with us
again. New studies claiming to demonstrate
“scientifically” the old notion that black people are
inferior have been rapidly spreading in professional
literature, texts and respectable popular magazines.
Even more ominously, it is now being taught as fact
in classrooms across the country.
The leading contemporary protagonists of this
theory include Artnur Jensen (Berkeley), Hans
Eysenck (London), Richard Herrnstein (Harvard),
and William Shockley (Stanford). Basing their
conclusions on the results of aptitude, achievement
and I.Q. tests, these theorists claim that black or
other oppressed peoples are genetically endowed
with less intelligence than the dominant group. They
sweep aside the fact that tests of any oppressed
group in a stratified society measure only that
group’s social rejection and not its relative
intelligence. Jensen asserts: ‘There are intelligence
genes, which are found in populations in different
proportions, somewhat like the distribution of blood
types. The number of intelligence genes seems to be
lower, overall, in the black population than in the
white.” (The New York Times Magazine, 31 August
1969, p. 43). And Shockley iclaims, “Nature has
color coded groups of individuals so that statistically
reliable predictions of their adaptability to
intellectually rewarding and effective lives can easily
be made and profitably used by the pragmatic man
on the street.” (Boston Sunday Globe, 12 September
1971, Sec. A, p. 6).

untenable by the evidence of human history: every
population has developed its own complex culture.
Contrary to the supremacist view, the peoples of
Africa and Asia have, at various times, produced
civilizations far more advanced than those existing
simultaneously in Europe. Moreover, the constant
geographical shift of centers of culture is in itself
proof of the equal capabilities of all peoples. It is
nonsense to suppose genetic superiority wandering
about the world.
The doctrine of racial inferiority is thus
unscientific as well as socially vicious. Its sole claim
to objectivity rests on a veneer of scientific
techniques that covers distortion and false
assumptions.

Indeed, the current “master-race” ideas are once

again being discredited in the scientific literature (cl.

R. Lewontin, Bull Atomic Set. March 1970; S.
Searr-Salapatek, Science, 174:4016; 178:4058; C.
Brace, et al. Anthropological Studiet, No. 8. Am.
Anth. Assn.). Nevertheless, the generators of this
new racism persist in their bigotry. Their theories,
despite their academic garb, do not differ in their
scientific character or their social effects from those
advanced by American slave-owners, the Nazis, or
the advocates of apartheid in South Africa. Racist
ideas, if it were not for their political and economic
role in justifying oppression and exploitation, would
long since have joined phlogiston and geocentric
theories of the universe in the mausoleum of science.
The resolution against racism reads in part:
Our common human heritage has endowed all
groups of people with equal intellectualabilities. Of
course there are secondary physical differences.
Nobody denies this. But they have nothing to do
with intelligence. Research involving these
differences must not be misused to support theories
ofracial inferiority.
Racist theoreticians have recently sought
sanction and protection in the concept of academic
freedom. This is a subterfuge. It is true that
academic freedom protects the right to free inquiry
and to the expression of controversial ideas. But it is
not license to justify oppression. It was no more
intended to protect racism than verbal assault or
libel, with which racism has mpraih qommpn fitqrmt

Executive

Regan on county functions
by Richard Korman
Spectrum

Staff Writer

“People have no idea of county government.
County Executive is a dumb name; it should be
regional mayor or metro-mayor,” said Erie County
Executive Ned Regan, summarizing his opinion of
how people view county government. Mr. Regan
discussed a wide range of topics involving county
government in an informal seminar with University
students and teachers Friday night in Foster Hall.
The role of county government, especially in the
city of Buffalo, was scrutinized. “We arc emerging as
the area government and it is increasingly clear that
the county government is more important. It’s
bigger, has more money, and is an umbrella-type
government,” Mr. Regan explained. Erie County
employs 9500 people and has a $300 million budget.
‘I’m trying to condition people that the phrase
‘county-city’ is archaic,” the Republican explained.
There is no uniform pattern of local government

throughout the country, according to Mr. Regan. In
Erie County there are 44 cities, towns and villages,
and the county government brings a lot more to bear
on the everyday quality of peoples lives than any
individual city government, he noted. “We govern in
the city of Buffalo,” Mr. Regan asserted.
Speaking of his fellow county executives, he
said: “We think the whole idea of the ‘Big Six’
mayors and all their lobbying power in Washington is
pretty funny.” Mr. Regan expressed his willingness
to work with Buffalo Mayor Stanley Makowski;
“I’m in and out of his office all the time.” He and
Mayor Makowski have had similar experiences in city
government, he noted, and are on very good terms:
“All of that kind of phony protocol simply does not
exist between Mayor Makowski and myself.”
Mr. Regan described his long-rage ideas for Eric
County. “We’re moving toward a metropolitan
government and a two-tier, county-community
system. We set. ourselves up as a kind of background
technical government, and then we encourage
decision-making at the local level,” Mr. Regan said.
“You should not have a large, depersonalized
government deciding which kinds of community
recreations there should be,” he continued, “or you
have this gradual sifting and sorting of government
services.” Unified services between the state and the
county arc necessary, Mr. Regan believes, because
“we can’t afford to pay for what ‘Uncle Nelson’
can.

Meaningful relationship
A successful University-county relationship
could be beneficial for both, Mr. Regan said. “My
goal is to take the talent at this University and use
that as an asset. Universities can attract industries,
and industries mean jobs, and that’s very healthy.
University members, including Academic Affairs
vice-president Bernard Gelbaum, were trying to
generate spinoffs that could help provide
technological information to nearby businesses.”
Mr. Regan claimed he was genuinely interested
in the University, but that contact was difficult
because many students are disinterested in
community affairs. “I read The Spectrum we send

Women’s Voices is a campus publication that is
difficult for many people to find. The staff of Women’s
Voices has published five issues dealing with problems
encountered by modem women since theproject was bom
in the Women’s Study College in the summer of 1972.
The editors of Women ’s Voices have been successful in
involving community women of varying economic and
ethnic backgrounds, as well as students, in their coalition.
In an effort to become more broadly-based, the magazine
moved its office to Norton Hall last summer (where it still
has no permanent room). The editorial staff undergoes
changes each semester, and any woman wishing to
participate is welcome.
Women’s Voices is very much a collective effort. While
individual articles express personal opinion, the magazine
merges many points of view into a cohesive whole.
However, most of the women have overlapping priorities
and interests, which they feel is true of the women’s
movement as a whole.
Women’s interests
There is room for disagreement though. Editor
Carolyn Holt feels that Women's Voices is feminist, but
“not stridently or aggressively so,” while fellow editor
Gloria Beutner thinks it is aggressively feminist and “this is
a positive thing.” They both agree the magazine seeks to
work with all women’s interests, and is not against
reformism, which advocates altering or adjusting the
existing structure of society.
Women's Voices
ks to print articles by women with
a positive attitude who are trying to break out of
traditional feminine roles and stereo-types. The magazine

-

Inadequate funds
Like the other special interest publications on campus,
Women’s Voices is funded by Sub-Board. The editors
contend they are not getting adequate funds and have
requested additional money. However, there has been no
action on last May’s request for a larger budget. They also
want Women’s Voices re-classified by Sub-Board, because
women, though technically considered a “minority” on
campus, constitute too large a part of the student
population to be labelled a “special interest” group.
Women’s Voices aims to become a broadly-based and
self-sustaining publication. The editors are presently filing
to incorporate on a non-profit basis. They want to initiate
legal and financial actions on behalf of women, and would
like more feedback from both women and men on the
contents of their magazine. They have not received any
letters from men, thus far, but the editors are more than
willing to print them in the correspondence box in each
issue. Letters addressed to Women's Voices should be
deposited in Box M in Norton Hall.
Exceeding demand
The present circulation of Women’s Voices is 3000
copies, hardly enough to meet the demand on and off
campus, which seems to be growing with each succeeding

issue. It is free on campus and available at the information
desk in Norton Hall, the lunchroom at Ridge Lea, the
Women’s Studies College at 108 Winspear, and the Law

School at Amherst. The magazine sells for fifteen cents
off-campus and can usually be found at the New Women’s
Center and the Y.W.C.A.
Women can submit fiction, poetry, and photography
to Women’s Voices. Any woman interested in working on
the magazine should come to Norton 337 Tuesday
mornings from 10 a.m.—noon. Women’s Voices is also
sponsoring an open discussion, “The Politics of Ageism,”
at the Buffalo Women’s Center, 264 Franklin St., on
Saturday, November 17 at 2 p.m.

�DITORIAL

Pass the proposal
A proposal to place two non-voting students on President
Ketter's tenure review board has been approved by both SA
and GSA. The one graduate and one undergraduate would
be non-voting because faculty contracts mandate exclusive
"peer review" and because a proposal for voting students
would have little political hope of succeeding. However, the
mere presence of two students on the influential tenure
board would be an important step toward true student
participation in decision-making at this University.
As we have noted before, a prestige-conscious University
often places undue stress on publishing prowess and many
excellent teachers get canned in the process. When this
happens, it is students who must pay the price of an inferior
education. Students must have input into the tenure process,
simply because they are the individuals most affected. The
argument that students cannot properly evaluate faculty
members is paternalistic hogwash and an insult to today's
sophisticated students. While the actual vote will remain in
faculty hands, the two students would make sure procedures
were above-board and register vital input on behalf of the
student body.
The proposal is now headed for the Faculty-Senate
executive committee; if they approve. Dr. Ketter will almost
certainly acquiesce. One obstacle is the closed-shop attitude
exhibited by many faculty members who want no student
infringement on their tenure prerogatives. While hard-headed
faculty members scoff at there students attempting to
evaluate the job they're doing, more open-minded professors
recognize how valuable student feedback is in maintaining a
quality faculty. A Fac Sen rejection.of this proposal would
be a severe setback to student participation and any sense of
faculty-student
solidarity. We strongly urge the
Faculty-Senate to face reality and recognize that students
must have a voice in determining what professors remain at
this University to try to educate them.

The right to choose

"Pro-life groups, to use the popular misnomer, haven't
accepted the Supreme Court's legalization of abortion last
January and are attempting to pass a constitutional
amendment to outlaw abortion. As the law now stands, safe
abortions are available to those who have no desire to bear a
child, who are not financially or emotionally prepared to
raise a child; in short, to those who want them. Just as no

one is forcing those who find abortions morally wrong to

others?

which preyed upon people's fears of Hell for centuries, is
backing the movement. But although abortions were illegal
for thousands of years, women resorted to homemade
remedies or unsanitary backroom quacks. Before 1970, those
with money had easy access to illegal abortions; the poor did
not. Legalizing abortions simply made them universally
available. Outlawing abortions would actually mean
outlawing safe abortions; the rich can always "find a
doctor," while lower-income wornfen would be forced to
choose between unsanitary hack jobs or the burden of
unwanted children.
The question of whether it is better to abort a fetus or
allow an unwanted child to be born and suffer through the
miserty of either poverty, having no father, being raised out
of wedlock, inattention, or the resentment of parents who
didn't want him is essentially a moral one. No Government
or church or outside authority can answer that question for
people; it is the woman who must bear the child; it is the
woman' and her partner who must decide. The pro-life
moralists fail to consider personal choice, individual liberty,
the human miserty of an unwanted child for both the infant
and the parents. Their "fetal rights" platform conveniently
ignores the rights of the mother. If anyone were to tell the
crusaders with the color fetus slides that they could or
couldn't have children, they would be outraged; yet they
attempt to dictate morality to others, to substitute their
self-righteous mandates for individual choice. Three years ago
this state emerged from the Dark Ages with the passage of a
sane, humane abortion law; one year ago the Supreme Court
ratified it. We must not allow any political coalition to

CIA

fantasies

To the Editor
As a black man and a studnet, I object to the
letter published from one Clara English of NCLC on
CIA fascism.
First, everyone knows Clara English is a phoney
name used by the Buffalo Labor Committee to hide
behind. They’re afraid to come out and be seen for
the racists they really are.
Phoney Clara talks about Imamu Baraka and
Newark. What does she know about Baraka, Newark
and the ghetto? Clara and the rest of the BLC never
saw the sun set in the ghetto and go home every
night to the comfort and secwrity&gt;of their old man's
home after playing revolutionary all day.
Has phoney Clara ever been to Newark? I have,
and I can tell you Baraka has done more for the

people than the NCLC who run around chasing thentails and having nightmares about the CIA. Baraka
has brought pride to the people, pride in the black

nation.
Let the NCLC with their CIA fantasies try to
stop Baraka. They will be met on every front. Any
expose will only show the NCLC to be the racists
they arc and increase the pride of the people.

“I Haven’t Run Into Anything Like This”

by Clem Cohicci
As you probably know, Secretariat made his
farewell appearance last week. Now the Triple
Crown-superhorse will spend the rest of his days

in stud to the tune of over $6 million in fees. It
speaks ill of our sports entrepreneurs’
imagination, since they haven’t seen the obvious
oppbrtunity to extend that logic and make a pile.
Our beef barons should give serious consideration
to extending this sensible breeding practice to
human athletes.
LOS ANGELES (DPI) Five-time Olympic
gold medalist Mark Spitz and his managers today
signed an unprecedented $11 million stud
contract. The swimming star will provide services
for a record 47 female swimmers annually over
the next 15 years, with the number dropping
after that by four annually to keep pace with
Spitz’s “declining reproductive abilities.”
Lawyers for former Indiana University
swimming coach James Councilman, now head of
the Spitz stables, said the signing did not mean an
end to negotiations aimed at working out a
breeding agreement between Spitz and Australian
swimming star Shane Gould. The Gould interests
are reportedly holding out for $2.5 million, their
pick of the litter and freedom to “pick up a little
action on the side.’’ The disagreement, according
to sources close to the negotiations, is the last
condition.

This letter it in reference to your article of
31 October 1973: “Comprehensive
health system being planned.”
There appears to be tome misunderstanding as
to what I meant by a “centralized health unit,” in
my interview with your reporter. I feel that it is
important that I clarify my position on the
implementation of a comprehensive health care
system for students at this university.
I fylly support Dr. Donald A. Larson’s proposal
for such a system. My version of a centralized unit is
essentially the same as Dr. Larson’s version of an
ambulatory care center. I basically said the same
things in different words. Now let me explain what I
meant by the “geographical impossibility” of such a
unity. At the present time, the physical limitations
of the Main Campus will not allow the centralization
of all health care sectors into one geographical
location. This does not mean that I am opposed to
such a unit. It is my hope that when the space
becomes a reality, that the center will also become a

today’s action.”
RC; “Here comes Billie.”

of Gloria Steinem, Bella Abzug and Margaret

with Billie Jean’s husband, Larry King. Take it

myself, as a student representative, slip into a

angles. First my position as Minority Affairs
Co-ordinator which kept the majority of my time
with people, trying to solve those personal and

who I felt would assist myself in following out my
ideas.
Second, my main purpose for being here at this

load and I feel very dedicated to these studies to a
point where I must put all things off in order to keep
myself in well academic standing. This conflicted
upon my position as oo-ordinater

became wrapped up inside them, they taunted my

It’s true that I had become disenchanted with
the Student Association from little pressures that
grew out of S.A. and the foolish attempts of others
(J.S.U., UUAB, Speakers Bureau) who put me on the
spot by accusing me of committing monies I hadn’t.
I tell you B.S.U. and what I committed was a
misinterpretation on my part. To rectify it now

I feel very much part of this University and I
plan to help shape this University from my position

from Clarion State. Hamilton has been nicknamed
both “Crazy Ed” and “The Scrambler” for his
unorthodox style on and off the mat. He often
forsakes the finer points of wrestling, literally gives
away points, and risks getting pinned himself, in
order to pin his opponent. Ed’s pattern is to start
slowly and then explode, using his own special series
of moves, which involves dragging the opponent
back over his (Hamilton’s) own body. The results are
always exciting, usually resulting in a pin victory for
Hamilton.
Charlie Wright takes over at 190 lbs. following a
year of ineligibility after transferring from New York

mat and likes to use the brute strength that helped
him as a heavyweight in open tournaments last year.

Starting combinations unsettled
“We could start two or three
different
combinations,”
continued Richardson. “It all
depends on how well they play
together, and the type of team
we’ll be facing.” One of the
combinations Richardson has
been impressed with thus far in
practice has featured a pair of 6-3
forwards (senior Horace Brawley
and junior Bob Dickinson) with
6-2 junior Otis Home playing the
pivot. At guard, Richardson has
had
6-1
sophomore
Gary
Domzalski paired up with 5-10
senior Ken Pope, replacing last
year’s top tandem of Bob
Vartanian and A1 Delman. Also
seeing action will be senior
Rayfield Goss, a 5-10 crowd
pleaser from Detroit.
If Brawley is moved to a guard
spot to pair up with either Pope
or Domzalski, the gate will be left
open to start a pair of top recruits
on
the
forward line ,with
Dickinson. The man who could be
trying to fill Blackmore’s big
shoes could be junior Tom Tobias.
Tobias, a 6-5, 220-lb. transfer
from Neosho County Community
College in Chanute, Kansas,
averaged 16 points and 16

Bulls to run
Richardson plans on moving
away from the set offense
practiced during the last couple of
years. “We aren’t going to get the
second shot
we don’t have the

mentor. “We’re going to have to
run. We’ll use a basic open
offense, a passing offense, with
possibly a shuffle. I’m hoping to
play 10 men a ballgame, and that
we’ll be in the best condition to
go all out the full 40 minutes.”
Hoping to increase the Bulls’
scoring over last season to about
85 points per game, Richardson
will institute a pressing defense.
“The key to our winning will be
the success of our pressing
defense,” said Richardson. “We’ll
try to press all ballgame, either

has had-much success with the
running, pressing game as his cage

Savannah

a break-even season seems a
realistic goal for Buffalo’s 73-74
cagers.

Harassment charged
To thfEditor:

VOU PROUD OF 'WHO TlMAHOE?' HE

’‘OH, DADPyf AREN'T

The arrest of BSU President, Larry Williams, is
another case of racist and political harassment on
this campus. It exposes the real function of the
campus cops: to single out militants and sock it to
them.
Ketter knows that pretty soon we are all going
to be fighting for our survival at this school, (i.e.,
against budget cuts and tuition hikes, etc.), and he is
moving now to arm his cops precisely to be able to
enforce these cutbacks. Ketter wants to get rid of
guys like Larry Williams because he is scared to
death that other students will follow his lead and
FIGHT BACK.
The administration counts on racism to keep
black students isolated; it knows that as long as
students are divided along facial lines, it has got us
under control. One way to defeat the racism that is
Ketter’s No. 1 weapon against us all is to come to
the defense of Larry Williams (City Court, Part 9,
9:30 a.m., Thursday, Nov.' 15th) and to support the
present struggle of the BSU against the delays in
financial aid checks.
Out longer range outlook must be to build a
multi-racial, international movement among students
and workers that will be able to take on the racist
rich that rule this country and profit from the
welfare cutbacks, wage freezes, tuition hikes,
inflation, etc., etc. that means deteriorating living
conditions for us all. As a revolutionary communist
party, PLP is attempting to build just such a
movement: to smash this government and build
socialism.

Stick it out, Mr. President, you can do it. Don’t
let the Media which is out to get you get you. I
know this letter won’t have a lot of company on
compared to the pile of letters telling
your desk
you to quit. But I say, stay alive
stay in the office
you belong in.
I know I’m in the minority on this, but 1 don’t
care. I’ve always been in the minority, it seems to
me. I remember back in 1962, I took a similarly
unpopular position on a matter of public interest. It
was during the reign of our Late Beloved President
Kennedy, when he was trying to show he was more
of a “man” than the Soviet Premier, and threatened
the destruction of the world if Khrushchev didn’t
back down immediately. Well, I know 1 was in the
minority then, too, when I petitioned Congress, the

before we all perished. I did it for personal reasons.
Ithaca, that fall, was beautiful; the autumn had done
wonders with the foliage life was good to me, and
I wanted more of it, not less.
I guess what I admire most in you as a President,
is that you’re so “up front.” Let me explain:
You see I am a radical by disposition, and 1 have
over .a
been trying to pursuade people for years
decade that Democracy in America is a sham, that
the rich and powerful rule like Kings, paying off
politicians to get What they want, that all the plus
homilies uttered by politicians are employed to

beguile the masses of simple people
there is no real justice in this country.
I’ve had evidence to back up what I have been

what’s evidence when someone wants to believe his
President. Occasionally, a student of mine will come
to appreciate what I am saying, but then time goes
by, he graduates, gets a job, marries, has kids, settles
down, as they say, and soon all my efforts are for
nought. Until recently, it has been depressing.

New York Times reporters, CBS News Reporters,
Harvard Professors, and even National Security
Council members, and even other members of the
Administration, and even people talking to the
President himself. The people doing the tapping are
themselves tapped. And them? Maybe now the
people of America can see what the First
Amendment to the Constitution meant when it
excluded infringements on speech and assembly.
You, Mr. President have been able to show, by
carrying it to its obvious, but absurd, extreme, what
we have been saying.
And another; We have always realized that
politicians have used the faith of the simple man to
their own advantage. But when you stand exposed as
a lying, cheating fraud, and then get on the TV and
continue to lie and cheat and then have the audacity
maybe now they
to ask the citizens for prayers
can see how their simple faith has been exploited
over the years.
And another; When push comes to shove,
Americans have almost always been willing to accept
the recommendation of their President that Wars
must be fought. Now, when you stand before them
and speak of the Middle East Crisis, and the
necessity for some “Cuba Missle Crisis” type
confrontation, everyone watching you realizes that
you have created this international crisis to solve
your own domestic political difficulties. People are
not so stupid, that they cannot draw the obvious
conclusions that this has been done before.
And finally; I guess the greatest lesson of your
tenure in office has been the exposure that there is
no justice. It was not sufficient that Blacks suffered
from Benign Neglect, that you ignored massive
protests against the War in Vietnam, stopped
but
integration, unfunded education, and all that
most people continued for years believing that there
was some sort of crude Justice. You have shown us,
by firing Cox, that there isn’t. The man who would
have been able to indict you for crimes, you fired,
and were remarkably “up front” about why you
fired him. Because he was going to sue you in court
for not producing the Tapes.
These have been your accomplishments, and
they have been an enormous accomplishment for the
radical cause, which hopes to show people what is
really going on in this country. Much of course is left
to do
the supposed freedom of people to read
what they want, the notion they have that
corporations are benevalent, that the government
can arrange an orderly progress into the new
technological age, the faith people have that their
environment won’t be raped for private profit, and
so on. These naivites must be exposed, but I am fully
confident that given a chance to finish your term
in office
you will be able to expose these simple
naivites, and help the American people understand
who runs their country and to what end, and maybe
then, they will realize that a revolution is a necessity.
Mr. President, please stay and finish the job. I
have, now, complete confidence in your ability.

Her art recaptures

personalized reality
by Erich E. Rassow
Spectrum Art Critic

In an article last summer, I tried to
describe my affection for an exhibit by
Lisa Steele in Toronto. It was a situation
where the viewer and artist were cast into
an immediate compact so that any kind of
sound would tend to lessen the feeling for
the elements of the art arrangement.
The exhibit created an environment
with intensely biographical material,
almost forcing one to reflect on the
contrived de/a vu quality of the so-called
process environments where people are
jumping up and down, dancing, making
faces, while a camera records the activity.
Even more significant is that Toronto has a
very significant women’s art movement.
I call it a women’s art movement
because its concern for the personal is
dearly unproblematic as contrasted to
un-women’s art and the formal historical
line of criticism which is preoccupied with
personal anonymity.
For example, we can look at the
intrepid stare of Van Gogh’s self portraits
and get the specified abstract feelings of
fear, madness, and fright rather than a
concept of a person.

Distinction

t

It was these thoughts that caused me to
reflect on Toronto, women’s art, and an
artist in Canada, Mary Janitch, who evoked
die distinction between the personal and
the anonymous.
Canada seems to have an almost frontier
expression in its art. Technical interest not
withstanding, the striated, quiet white
expanse of Tim Whitten’s graphic in a
September Norton Hall exhibit, spoke
about those empty snow fields far up past
the tree lines of Northern Canada. His
tusked wood and leather sculpture was part
toy and part tools reminiscent of an

Eskimo artifact.
David Bolduc, with all the formalistic
venue of an Olitski or Bannard, painted the
auroral quality of the artic lights glow,
when the intermittent mix of the setting
and rising midnight sun stretches luminous
bands of orange color across the horizon.
His other undertoned speckled canvas
could have been the belly of a salamander,
frog or fish.
In this setting, the men are the hunters
and gatherers squinting into the sunlight,
while the women are home darning the
socks. One group engaged, at those
moments of reflection, in hallucinatory
abstraction while the others engage in
hallucinatory reality.

Abstraction application
It is here that the word parochialism
applies to abstraction 'rather than reality
because someone or something remains
integral while, to use a definition,
abstraction considered apart from any
application to a particulat object, forever
illusively conceptual, suffers if
attitudinized with an exact reference; be it
a sunset ora salamander.

The ersatz thought, the proxy of
feeling, is fixed in the.mind from which the
depth and profound mystery or life of the

idea cannot be retrieved.

Now everyone dwells on the personal

reference, the artist by' summoning up

intuitive

an

complex of personal forces which
results in a chosen object Or Idea and the
viewer who. ammasses constantly new and
changing interest in a certain work based
on his own perceptual experience which
cao. .be ejected by even the smallest

matters, such as the time of day.
French artists have a French character;
who but Dubuffet would resurrect the
primitive almost primeval imagery of the
Lascaux caves with the collected wings of
butterflies. The move of America to the
lead positiorl in art is fully characterized by
the restless, wandering, painting energy of
Pollock and the self-willed independence of
David Smith’s sculpture.
The point is: the refential sensibility of
Canadian art has in most cases, weakened
the claim for being considered major
international work, while at the same time
fortified the realism of women artists an
expression that may well lead to a major
change in artistic aesthetic consciousness.
In particular let’s consider Mary Janitch,
whose work is just coming into
recognition.
Mary Janitch was part of a show held
last month at the Carmen Lamanna
Gallery. In effect, she was the artist in the
show because her draped hanging materials,
made from cheesecloth, twigs, hair, dried
blueberries and other recycled personal
items, completely “ephcmcrized” the
gallery.
The corners, the walls, the floors,
appeared to be in direct correspondence
with the hanging material and encompass
the entire room environment. Each hanging
object acted as tactile mental store, as the
mind constantly returned to the material
for a kind of resusitated perception.
To put these thought about the person
and anonymity in perspective, consider the
completely different character of the
combine painting Bed from Robert
Rauschenberg and Sleeping Place II Tree of
Mary Janitch.
-

Hiway
The Rauschenberg esthetic, which Brian
O’Doherty termed the “vernacular glance’’
consists of signposts, short-term sensation
collectively apprehended in the same
manner as you might moving through a
New York City street-scene. The Bed, his
bed, quilted cover pulled down below the
pillow, splattered and streaked with paint,
red, green, black, and set up vertically as a
painting has all the anonymous nightmare
and reality of any bed.
This bed need only be glanced at and
the store of instances, your instances, can
be understood mote clearly away from the
painting. The detachment provokes your
own sense of participation. The anonymity
of the work becomes a secret in the mind.
Its devised frankness is devoid of
commitment to the person and insinuates
abstract anonymity. It defiles with a quick
glance.
Sleeping Place II Trees is a “central
reminder.’’ Your eyes, like the strange
forces returning to the hanging materials,
are reminded of a visual resting place by
the almost mental like images of the
photographs lined against the wall to the
right of the vertically hanging bed.
The pictures show the bed as situated
when Mary Jahitch used it as an actual
sleeping place. Th&amp; mental reminder
(photographs) sends your return to the
sleeping [dace for renewal in personal
proximity. The reality explored, the eyes
venture off to the extremes of the
environment but return to the constant
source: of personal energy; again and again
constantly exploring and re-exploring the
personal reality of Mary Janitch.
As she states it:
“The sleeping place was my bed,
-

thesmeU of this bed."

�JUST MR FUN
by Eggman
“Watergate-type tactics are sure to Alter down to the local

level.”

Jama McCord
After six months of scandals and
March IS, 1976
confusion, Sub Board has introduced a resolution to
abolish all the student governments, so as to facilitate the
most money-making for students in return for their
mandatory fees. Considering the confusion of recent
months, The Spectrum would like to present a brief
history of the scandals to date.
-

—

It all started when Ronald Loophole, a former UB
student and secretary to Dr. Gelbaum, leaked a copy of
the new Master Plan to The Spectrum. The Administration
had claimed the report contained a “vocationally-oriented
priority shift” in education. Printed by The Spectrum in
serial form, the report actually revealed a 5-year plan to
phase out all social sciences and divert all monies into
engineering and math. Dr. Ketter issued a statement calling
the theft of the plan “reprehensible” and Dr. Somit said he
was “disgusted.” The Spectrum continued to print the
report in serials until a court injunction ordered it to stop.
The report then went underground: other sections turned
up on one-page mimeographed sheets, hawked around
Norton Union by former SDS members. The
Administration’s credibility was called into question,
although they claimed the report didn’t phase out social
sciences but altered them, and that it was a response to a
U.S. Government request for more engineers.

Loophole arraigned

Ronald Loophole was taken to the Student Judiciary
by the Administration, for he had broken the law by
leaking the documents. He claimed he had acted out of a
sense of patriotism for UB, for he felt the school might be
destroyed and students had a right to know about the
plan. He became something of a folk hero among the
undergraduates, although certain pipe-smoking graduates
branded him a criminal and the GSA almost voted to
censure him.

The big story broke a few weeks before the election
for SA President, which was between SA Vice-President
Richard Vice, a political huckster; a local candidate, Tony
Tonawanda; and a liberal idea man, John Noble. A paid
hireling wearing a VICE IS NICE button was arrested at 4
a.m. in an attempt to bug John Noble’s Norton Union
office when a Norton Hall night manager perceptively
noticed his foot sticking out of a door. Noble’s office was
in the second floor bathroom, Stall No. 3 to be exact,
since Union space was tight at the time. The bugging
incident became known as theBathroom Affair.
Vote for Vice
Vice denied that he had planned the bugging, but the
hireling’s VICE button led many people to believe so, and
a Student Assembly subcommittee was appointed to
investigate the matter. To proclaim his innocence in the
bugging. Vice wrote an emotional letter published in Ethos
pleading that since he had no mechanical knowledge, he
could not possibly have planned the bugging.
In the ensuing few weeks, Tony Tonawanda’s
candidacy was finished when a remark attributed to him
was published in Ethos calling New Yorkers “a bunch of
flaming assholes.” John Noble received widespread
sympathy because of the bugging, but lost soundly because
his liberal ideas were too far ahead of the electorate such
as his complicated plan to give each student back $ 10 from
his mandatory student fees. Although tarnished by the
bugging suspicions, Vice was elected SA President.
After the election. The Spectrum reported that the
Student Judiciary’s sitting judge in the Gelbaum Papers
trial had been offered a lucrative position in The Brub by
then Vice-President Richard Vice. This started a new storm
of controversy and investigations. Although he was now
President, Vice had a difficult time governing and the
Student Assembly resisted all his legislative initiatives and
-

constantly overrode his veto.

Wiretap plan
As investigations into the bugging continued, spurred
on by media pressure and The Spectrum’s top investigative

reporter, Bill Muckrake, disclosure after disclosure poured
out. It -was revealed that Vice could plant statements such
as die Tonawanda remark, in Ethot because his sister,
reputedly a “great lay,” was the mistress of a top-level
official of Ethot. A plot to wiretap Dr. Setter’s office was
aborted when three Campus Security undercover agents
were discovered in a closet disguised as two hanging shirts
and a mop. They were laden with electronic equipment,
and claimed they were there “to fix the phone.” It was
suspected that Richard Vice had dispatched them to bug
Setter’s office to obtain valuable information, which he
could use against the President to secure a Law School
recommendation despite his 2.7 average.
Vice also had an “enemies list” whose offices were
rarely cleaned by Maintenance and who received a
preponderance of parking tickets even when their cars
were parked legally. The Director of Campus Security, L.
Patrick Gray, said his office had resisted political directives
for parking tickets from SA.
The Bathroom Affair worsened when it was revealed
that President Vice had bugged his own Norton Union
office, Room 205. Although he refused to release the tapes
of these conversations, it was rumored they contained a
detailed shopping list of Dr. Ketter’s, statements by several
SA coordinators admitting to smoking grass, confessions
by two key aides of serious hominess, a plea by a
Spectrum reporter, “Give me some quotes, I need 30 lines
for a story,” and three off-color jokes by Dr. Sigglekow.
Critics claim that any discussion of theBathroom bugging
may have been edited out.
The entire scandal exploded

when Sub Board
introduced its resolution that student governments should
be abolished, since they “don’t know shit about business,”
and all power should be vested in the Sub Board I
Corporation. SA President Vice quickly supported the
plan, creating some doubts that he may have been a Sub
Board puppet all along; that the Board was behind the
bugging and other tactics insured to elect Vice so he could
then support their plan. These suspicions were intensified
when Bill Buckrake of The Spectrum printed a secret
memo in his weekly column, Inside Shit. The memo was
from Vice to Sub Board Treasurer Cindy Hotlips,
commending her on her great oral abilities. Ms. Hotlips has
spearheaded the drive to abolish the student governments,
and throughout the year has demonstrated an uncanny
ability to get several key government officials to change
their votes about five minutes before voting time. At this
time, a new investigation is being launched into possible
Sub Board connection with the Bathroom Affair. Recall
petitions are also circulating for Richard Vice.

The Spectrum disavows any responsibility for this piece of
fantasy. Any similarity to reality is purely unintentional.

Papers requested
A three-page term paper will be due from all students taking The Spectrum i
journalism course on December 10. The paper should evaluate the educational experience
of working on a campus newspaper with respect to these areas: 1) what you learned about
reporting; 2)what you learned about newswriting; 3)how the couise might have been
improved; 4)other insights gained into journalism, the workings of a newspaper, what
constitutea news, interviewing, etc.; S)whether you felt learnlng-by-experience was more
valuable than a classroom format would have been.

International
Kissenger takes a snooze
PEKING (UP!)
Secretary of State Henry A.
Kissinger, so fatigued he dozed off during a ballet
performance in his honor, took a brief respite
Monday from U5.-Chinese talks that might be on
the verge of achieving new agreements.
Kissinger, who received a long memo from
President Nixon over the weekend, paid a return visit
to China’s ancient Temple of Heaven today, guiding
Chinese Vice Minister Chiao Kuan-hua, who had not
seen it for 25 years.
Observers said the Nixon memo apparently
contained new instructions that might lead at the
very least to a broadening of Sino-Amcrican
'
exchange programs.
The secretary of state, who arrived in China
Saturday after a hectic Middle East peace tour, was
to meet later today for the second consecutive day
of talks with Chinese Premier Chou-En-lai.

:

Ask a college student why be or die is
attending college and one of the primary
reasons given will be, “To insure getting a
better job.” The Bureau of Labor Statistics
of the Department ofLabor has confirmed
Uiis by showing that the average college
graduate can expect to earn over $200,000
more, in the course ofhis lifetime, than the
average high school graduate. Academics,
however, have misgivings about equating
the college degree with financial success.
Clark, Kerr, chairman of file Carnegie
Commission on Higher Education,
appeared to tone down the question of
financial rewards of a college education

community."

But the fact remains that a college
education and greater potential earning
power are often equated. Parental and
student expectations are such that people
are willing to make the necessary financial
sacrifices to obtain the college degree
which some have called, “the key to the
good life." For example, in a study
completed by the American Council on
Education, when the question was asked
what were the most important reasons for
students in deciding to go to college, the
highest response was "to get a better job."
This response far exceeded others which
included "to gain a general education,” to
learn; more about filings of interest,
parental encouragement,” and, "to earn
mpTe money.” Yet there we signs while the

moreover, that:

seem inevitable that the supply of the

Adams points out that it &gt;1 be yean,

of the broad age distribution of gndnate

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

McCarthy, Nixon made statements he must

Note: Dwight Macdonald, the author of
Politics Past, has been a well-known writer,
literary critic and political essayist for
decades. The editor of his own magazine,
Politics, in the 1940‘s, Mr. Macdonald is

University, teaching courses in American

“Nixon’s need to create crises so he can
surmount them has become addictive and

Macdonald, the noted political and literary
critic now teaching English at this
University. Questioning the President’s
strange actions under the pressure of the
last few weeks, Mr. Macdonald believes Mr.
Nixon has lost touch with reality and is no
longer a politician.
“Prior to the ’68 election, Nixon used
unscrupulous and
to be a politician
dirty, yes, but a politician. Just look at
Voorhis and Helen Galiagan
Jerry
Douglas,” he explained. But after he
became President in 1968, “Nixon became
one whose
more and more of a solopsist
world begins and ends with himself. He lost
touch with people, and could see no
difference between his own needs and
wants and those of the outside world.” The
Haldeman-Ehrlichman palace guard, Mr.
Macdonald explained, enabled Nixon “to
isolate himself and retreat into his own

Watergate gradually grew out of an
expanded concept of the Presidency which
began with Franklin Roosevelt during the

New Deal, Mr. Macdonald explained.
FDR’s expansion “lulled the liberals,” he
said, “and each administration ‘except

In the field of world affairs, Mr.
Macdonald was not hesitant to label the
United States “the most reactionary force
in the world.” He compared modern-day
America to Czarist Russia between 1815
and 1848, when the “gendarme of Europe”
sent troops to any country where
democratic uprisings were creating trouble
for the old established regime. Citing the
intervention' on behalf of the Greek
monarchy in 1945-46, and the Korean
conflict of 1950-53, Mr. Macdonald said
that with President Kennedy we became
convinced of “some global mission to
democracy,” leading to the

Leaky lifeboat
Shielded by the palace guard, Mr. Nixon
“tried to preserve his solopsist fantasies
that whatever he wanted was OK.” His
firing of special prosecutor Archibald Cox
showed the President “had no sense of
public reaction,” which was a one-week
barrage of 275,000 telegrams eight times
as many as Capitol Hill had ever received.
If he had consulted the leaders of his own
party, they would have advised that the
firing was politically unfeasible
but no
longer being a politician, he did not bother
tp consult, Mr. Macdonald explained.
He feels the trend against Nixon is now
“irreversible,” and compared the state of
the Presidency to “a leaky lifeboat with
Nixon frantically trying to patch things up
but each patch he applies makes a bigger
hole.” Expressing his belief that Mr. Nixon
is now mentally unstable, he said; “His
state of mind itself is grounds for
impeachment.” Of the recent emotional
press conference where the President said
“the tougher it gets, the cooler I get,” Mr.
Macdonald said: “It’s like a madman who
proclaims frantically, Tm not mad.’ If he
was cool under pressure, he wouldn’t have
and certainly not
had to say it

Backing repression
“We always intervene against popular
forces; we’re always on the side of the
undemocratic, privileged ruling class.”
Citing ITT’s anti-Allende role in Chile as
the most recent example, Mr. Macdonald
believes that “because of American

the side of the status quo.” Fear of
Communism is the rationale for supporting
repressive regimes; “If Communism is a
totalitarian threat to borgeois democracy,
you can support anything against it.” Since
it’s easy to fill a vacuum, “If the U.S. is
the
supporting ' a repressive regime,
U.S.'S.-Rt can go in and appeal, to the
repressed people, and vice versa.’’ China,
on the other hand, consistently supports
people’s movements, Mr. Macdonald noted.
But America and Russia always line up
on opposite sides because “they’re both in
the business of competing for influence in
client states. Detente is limited to the
mutually beneficial areas of trade and
avoiding nuclear warfare, but it means
nothing in world strategies, as we can see
from the Middle East.” The trend may be
moving away from American global
intervention, however, “because the
Vietnam experience was so traumatic,” Mr.
Macdonald added.
We’ve gotten the “raw end of the deal”
on U.S.—Soviet detente, Mr. Macdonald
believes: "We’ve gotten no guarantees from
Russia. When dealing with this kind of
closed regime, how can we trust them to
carry out their end of the bargains?” He
agrees with Sen. Henry Jackson that
favored trade status “should be linked” to
free emigration for Jews, but also to

Spectrum

Staff Writer

“The ghetto is not a testing ground for Harvard
sociologists. Children’s lives are being ruined there. The
infant mortality rate in Harlem is twenty times that of
Scarsdale. I’m asking you to help us fight a battle big
enough to matter, small enough to win.”
As part of a nationwide campaign to combat racism,
Jonathan Kozl, noted author and educator, spoke to
nearly one thousand enthusiastic people in the Fillmore
Room Thursday night in an appeal for solidarity. After a
damning indictment of public school indoctrination and a
convincing argument that free schools are the only hope
for many ghetto children, Mr. Kozol asked the audience to
help save the free schools which are now facing extinction
due to a lack of funds.
“I’m here to ask you to take action. Thanksgiving Day
1973 will mark the first major national action in three
years,” he said. He is speaking at colleges across the
country and asking students to refuse to eat Thanksgiving
dinner when they go home for the holiday. “I’m asking,
you,to look across the, turkey and cranberry sauce at your
parents and tell them, ‘I can’t eat that knowing that ghetto
children are starving and being denied an education.’ I’m
asking you to persuade your parents to open their
checkbooks and write a fat check to help keep free schools
alive. I’m asking you to put your bodies on the line,” Mr.
Kozol said.

Depth of committment
“We expect 10,000 kids will fast on Thanksgiving, and
we hope to raise one quarter of a million dollars. The fast
will serve as a protest against racism,” he explained.
Twelve simultaneous rallies are scheduled for Thanksgiving
across the country, he announced. Picket lines will march
in front of the Harvard Club in Boston, N.Y.U. in New
York City, Tulane University in New Orleans, and in other
cities. Additionally, a conference on racism will take place
at N.Y.U. on November 17 and 18. Other notable organizers
for the Education Action Fund include Benjamin Spock,
Dick Gregory, Ossie Davis, Julian Bond and Noam
Chomsky. “When gutless liberal hop from one movement
to another, a lot of controversy, books and articles are
generated, but no one who was in pain is in any less pain
after it is over,” Mr. Kozol said. He asked the audience to
examine their depth of committment and support the
nationwide action by fasting on Thanksgiving, persuading
their parents to donate money to keep free schools alive,
and participating in the protest rallies.

School indoctrination
The socializing function of American public schools is
actually “disguesed political indoctrination,” said Mr.
Kozol. Formerly a “permanent sub” at a ghetto school in
Boston, Mr. Kozol’s first book, Death At An Early Age,
described the atrocities he witnessed being committed

read a poem called “The Landlord” by black poet
Langston Hughes to his all-black fourth grade class, which

Public Schools Louise Day Hicks fired Mr. Kozol,
explaining that the poem he read was on an eighth grade
level. “I was fired for curriculum deviation,” Mr. Kozol
explained. He added: “1 wonder if Langston Hughes
intended the poem to be read only by eighth graders?”
Death At An Early Age, as most of the writing in the
1960’s was sincere but naive, Mr. Kozol said; “gee whiz”
could summarize the book, he said. He ascribed this
naivete to the conservatism carried over from the ’50’s.
Furthermore, school activists were naive to go to Louise
Day Hicks or Richard Nixon and say, ‘The school system
is turning out bloodless, cold, heartless people like . . .
you. Could you please give us a grant for our innovative
program?”
Dehumanization
‘The function of a school in a ghetto neighborhood is
to turn out toilet cleaners and janitors to clean the toilets
in Great Neck, and welfare mothers for Harvard
sociologists to study,” Mr. Kozol said. The American
public school system is “twelve years of mandatory
dehumanization,” he emphasized. “Public schools are
scared stiff of using the first person pronoun.” He mocked
Harvard sociologists as never saying “I think,” but rather,
“it would not be unreasonable for one to assume . . ”. An
American classroom is merely a “room full of third
persons,” he added. “Nobody says I.” However, “there is a
method to the madness in our public schools. Revolution
is not starjad inthe. thmTperson.”
/Shortly following his dlsmi&amp;al by Ms. Hicks,
Kozol sfirted 3 free school fai the basement of a Roxbury
church. With the help of many community mefnbers, the
school became a success, and the'free school movement
subsequently gained momentum throughout the country.
Mr. Kozol considers free schools the only viable alternative
to indoctrination in public schools, citing Harlem Prep, a
free school for dropouts in New York as “one of the finest
examples”. However, the Federal Government has cut
back funds available for free schools, and Harlem Prep will
be forced to close in two months. Harlem Prep has a 98%
college admission rate, well above the national average of
60%, “amazing for a school whose students are public
school dropouts, explained Mr. Kozol.
“We expect 10,000 kids will fast on Thanksgiving, and
we hope to raise one quarter of a million dollars,” Mr.

Free schools are facing extinction due to a lack of
money. Jonathan Kozol’s visit here is part of a
nationwide tour to raise money to keep those schools
alive. He urged that students going home for the
holiday refuse to eat Thanksgiving dinner unless their
parents write a big check to help keep free schools in
existence. Whether raised through cajoling, persuasion
or coercion, money should be sent to:

495-5526 during the day or 445-2844 at night. The
nationwide rallies are expected to be the largest
national protest in three years.
-

Kozol said. The fast will serve as a protest against racism.
Twelve successive rallies are scheduled across the country,
Mr. Kozol announced.
‘The sixties were a time for do-gooders,” Mr. Kozol
continued. “White liberals would go into the ghetto and
pat black kids’ heads. Well, the black community doesn’t
need any more ‘head patters’.” What they need, he added
is cash to stay alive.
Mr. Kozol emphasized the gravity of our political
situation; “Let us consider the seriousness of the problem
we face. We live under the shadow of potential military
men and
takeover. It’s time for us to fight together
women, black and white, rich and poor. We need each
other . . . We need each other.
In the question-answer session that followed, members
of the National Caucus of Labor Committees lined up at
the microphone and several aimed accusations at Mr.
Kozol, all of which he denied while the audience
applauded. “You can’t even draw 25 people into a room
for one of your speeches; instead you can only interrupt
other people,” Mr. Kozol told them.
—

”

Give Xmas money
“Let’s go upstairs for coffee,” Mr. Kozol said, and an
informal discussion followed on the second floor of
Norton Union. One student suggested that a continuing
effort should be made to raise funds beyond Thanksgiving.
She proposed that students donate their Christmas and
Chanukah money to the Education ACtion Fund.
‘The national media perpetuates the myth of student
apathy,” said Jonathan Kozol. “At every college I’ve
spoken at, there’s been an audience twice as large as
predicted even in Waterville, Maine. It’s no accident that
the press is purposely dishonest about student feelings. It’s
a perfect example of a managed society where the media
creates a false sense of reality.” At one college in
Wisconsin where he spoke, Mr. Kozol explained, students
were upset over the firing of an English professor for
radical political views but didn’t know what to do about it.
—

Media Manipulation
“Students are just apathetic nowadays,” one student
told him. “How do you know?” asked Mr. Kozol. “1 read
didn’t you see it?” came the earnest reply. ‘They
it in
had to turn on the TV to find out how they felt,” Mr
Kozol observed. When he asked the students what they
thought, not what the media told them they thought,
enough emotion was generated to stage a protest of the
firing the next day.
Mr. Kozol feels that liberal, leftist faculty have been
dropped from colleges all around the country in the past
three years, and at this University as well. “And what are
the reactions? The racist department heads don’t care, and
the gutless liberals watch it all on TV,”
Some reform can be accomplished through working
within the system, Mr. Kozol said, if teachers ’’stopped

who advocate working within the system: “If it weren’t
for alternative schools, you’d have no place to go when
you get fired.”
When the campaign began last week, Mr. Kozol said,
‘They” told us, “The kids are dead. The kids are
apathetic. It’s too big to fight.” He looked around the
room and said: “Show us the kids are not giving up!”

xternal report

Many fear manipulation of
Colleges system evaluation
by Gary Cohn
ContributingEditor

...

Skepticism towards the Administration’s role in
carrying out the “transformation of the Colleges,” as
recommended in the just-released external evaluation
report, is mounting amidst generally favorable
,
toward the report.
Specifically, members of the University
community have expressed fear that the
Administration may manipulate the report, or the
forthcoming report from Jonathan Reichert’s
Faculty-Senate Colleges Committee, to dilute the
Colleges. “I’m always skeptical of people deciding
our fate, based on past experience,” said Elliot
Smith of the new College of Modern Education.
“Who believes the Lord of the Manor when he says
he’s going to give you a present?” he asked
rhetorically.
Dr. Reichert’s Colleges Committee will weigh
the external evaluators’ recommendations, seek
input from the University community [there will be
an open meeting tomorrow at 4 p.m. in Diefendorf
148], and eventually submit its own
recommendations for the College’ future to the
Faculty-Senate for approval. Anr" changes must
ultimately be ratified by President Robert Ketter.
Dr. Reichert expressed optimism that the
Administration would accept the recommendations
of the Faculty-Senate. He has received “no signals”
that the Administration would interfere in the
decision-making process, he said.

Independent Committee
Many College personnel expressed confidence in
the “independence” of the Reichert committee.

token participation. He’ll listen, but not agree, even
with members of his own committee. Then, when
well, he holds all the
it’s time to write his report
cards.”
The externa! evaluation itself received praise
from many segments of the University community.
Terming the Colleges “too valuable to lose and too
chaotic to survive,” the report recommended
immediately initiating “a process to transform the
present Collegiate system into a new Collegiate
system without killing the essence of life in the

process.”
‘Anti-homosexual bias’
“Basically, the suggestions were good,”
commented Keith Klopp, acting administrative
officer of the Colleges.
Academic Affairs vice president Bernard
Gelbaum said the report was a “carefully thought
out” document which was “just and equitable,”
However, Dr. Gelbaum disagreed with the report’s
assessment that any subject matter would be suitable
for College courses. For instance, a course on the
“methods of torture” would be inappropriate, he
maintained.
College F instructor Burton Weiss charged that
the report contained an “anti-homosexual bias.”
Specifically, Mr. Weiss objected to the following
statement from the report: “When Plato was studied
in College F, the partisian defense of homosexuality
generated interpretations of the text that were
patently wrong.”
Mr. Weiss could not understand “how an
interpretation could be patently wrong.” He asked
for and received an apology from Thomas Gould, the
external evaluator who was partially responsible for
the statement.
Unintended implications
“It was not our contention that you were
attempting to persuade anyone to take up any
particular sexual life and you falsified the text
deliberately for such a purpose .. Your enthusiasm
made you hope that the text meant something that
[in my opinion] it could not mean,” wrote Mr.
Gould in a letter to Mr. Weiss.
Mr. Gould, a professor of Classics at Yale
University, said he had read Plato “in the Greek”
and therefore gained an understanding of the
material that Mr. Weiss did not have. He emphasized
that the controversial statement was not intended as
an anti-homosexual slur.

Mr. Michaeli has misquoted me twice in his

the deadline is not met.
I had made it very clear to Mr. Michaeli that 1

1 therefore object to the tone of the article which
pictures the imminent move of the Record Co-op to

to think of services to the student body in general
and it is in this context that the issue of the Record

Time forjnput
Many seniors feel they've learned more from the
few College courses they’ve taken than from the
regular academic fare at this University. In the wake
of the external evaluation recommending a
transformation of the Collegiate system, the Colleges
are at the crossroads. Jonathan Reichert's College
Committee will weigh the evaluations and input

from all interested parties and make its
recommendations for the future of the Colleges.
The Administration has long desired to dilute
the Colleges or alter them into "straight" units.

Vocal support from students for the Colleges to
retain their vital experimental function, as
recommended by the evaluators, is needed. An open
meeting will be held tomorrow at 4 p.m. in
Diefendorf 148 to solicit this input. For those who
care about the future of the Colleges, attendance is
mandatory. An alternative means of expressing input
is by writing letters to this newspaper. If you sleep

These are the kinds of questions Jonathan Kozol
was asking here Thursday night. When liberals hop

"a lot of controversy, books and articles get
generated, but when it is all over, nobody who was

educator/writer. We have had enough of "gutless
liberals" who decry social problems at cocktail
parties but watch the whole thing on TV, he said.
What we need now is real committment.
Mr. Kozol delivered a damning indictment of
the public school system as a nationwide network of
political indoctrination. Anyone who has read
Kozol's Death at an Early Age is familiar with how
the Boston public school system destroys the hearts
and minds of black ghetto children. This is no
Boston phenomenon; it's the same story in every
slum in every city in America. Most people believe
that ghetto children attend inferior schools because
of lack of money, poor planning, or any of a
thousand "liberal" explanations. Not true, Mr. Kozol
explained. Ghetto children are treated the way they
are because society needs people to clean the toilet
bowls in Great Neck, needs welfare mothers for
Harvard sociologists to study, needs cheap tabor for
the ruling class to exploit.
Consider for a moment who sits on the board of
trustees of every public school, junior high, high
school and university in America. It's the rich elite,
the GE, IBM and General Motors executives whose
children go to segregated private school out in the
suburbs. These men have a vested interest in the
coninutation of a privileged ruling class which profits
at the expense of the exploited lower class. These
men promote racism, because if people can be
brainwashed into believing the myth that blacks are
genetically inferior, all attempts at equalizing
education will cease. And so in our managed society.
Harvard publishes racist sociology, and the media,
also controlled by the power structure, puts out

generation that turns on the TV to see how it feels, a

class of doctors and lawyers, scientists and engineers.

system.

Selective mourning

The Max Lerner Column

To the Editor
As a Jew, I wish to pose a question to all those
who attended the Wednesday night memorial to the

Israeli war dead. Is it proper to mourn the death of a
select nationality (such as Israelis) when lives have
been lost on both sides. I for one disagree. I mourn
the death of all those who gave their lives to the
senseless tradegy of war.

much talk &gt; of President Nixon as an
outcropping of a new “caesarism,” of his hunger for
power and (in the latter-day commentaries) perhaps
for money. Fortunately, the ancient drive for
tyrannicide, still present in the hearts of free men,
has been transformed into a passionate insistence on
,
the rule of law.
President Nixon’s own emphasis, since his
hapless blast at the media at the end of his press
conference, seems to be oh due prdcess'of media. At
one phase, it was also true of Spiro Agnew, and
perhaps Mr. Nixon has taken a leaf from his former
Vice President in the art of putting the media on the
defensive. For my own part, 1 should welcome the
pressure to be careful about the words 1 write, and I
should think that Walter Cronkite and Eric Sevareid
would welcome it too. Between due process of law
and due process of media, there need be no
contradiction, but only the happiest of marriages.

impeachment process, once it gets started, is the

To the Editor:

In reading The Spectrum of November 7,1973,1
came across a very disturbing comment by a
“Concerned Dorm Resident” in one of the letters to
the editor. In criticizing Arthur Gordon and the IRC
Executive Committee in their choosing of the IRJ
judges, this resident makes a veiled and
unsubstantiated accusation that the judges were
picked because they were Jewish.
Being a former dormitory resident and also
having been an acquaintance of most of the present

Executive Committee, I can say that IRC has always
followed a non-sectarian policy. No matter what the
shortcomings that IRC has, the Executive
Committee has made an honest effort to provide
services to all resident students.
The only conclusion that I and other reasonable
people can make is that the creditability of this
anonymous student be questioned in light of his
irresponsible charge that religion is one of the main
criteria in the selection processes of IRC.

Spectrum Staff Writer
Forest Lawn is not just another
cemetery. Although adjacent to downtown
Buffalo, Forest Lawn Cemetery is far
removed from the noise and traffic of the
city. Forest Lawn combines the pensive
refinement of a burial ground with the
lush, natural beauty of a park.
Once inside Forest Lawn’s tranquil
270-acre expanse, Buffalo seems miles
away. Approximately 7000 trees shade, the
cemetery’s lavish grounds. The 157
varieties of birds observed there make
Forest Lawn a paradise for bird watchers.
Scajaquada Creek, which flows through
Forest Lawn, was originally named for
John Ken-jock-e-ta, an Indian Chief who
lived on its banks for many years.
Constant work
The Cemetery is perfectly manicured by
a crew of twenty full- time groundskeepers,
said Theron B. Miller, a counselor for
Forest Lawn. “They are constantly
working to maintain the beauty of the
cemetery,” he added.
The original tract of land comprising
Forest Lawn was purchased from the
Seneca Indian Nation by Captain William
Johnston, a retired officer of the British
Charles E. Clarke, Esq.
Army.
bought eighty acres of the land for
Reverend James N. Granger and his brother
Wayne Granger for express use as a buria
ground. The grounds contained “equal
quantities of forest and lawn,” thus giving
rise to its present name.
A private organization gained ownership
of the cemetery in 1855 under the title
“Forest Lawn Cmetery Association of the
City of Buffalo.” By 1864, a community
feeling had developed that the “great
cemetery of the city should not be held by
a private corporation, subject to (financial)
vicissitudes.” Thus a new organization was
formed entitled the “Buffalo City
Cemetery Association.” “Forest Lawn” is
not the legal, but rather its peopular
designation.
‘The” cemetery
Forest Lawn is now a non-sectarian
cemetery. This was not always so, as a
book published in 1879 by the Buffalo
Historical Society states: “It is the
cemetery of Buffalo; and is especially so
far all those who are not attached to the
Romish or Jewish Faith.”
The first funeral train rolled into Forest
Lawn on July 12, 1850, carrying the body
of John Lay Jr., son of a prominent town
merchant. Approximately 170,000 people
are buried at the cemetery, according to
Helen Sims, Assistant Treasurer of Forest
Lawn.
In addition to the aesthetic beauty of
Forest Lawn, a number of memorials and
points of interest are well worth seeing.
Standing near the Delaware Avenue
entrance is a memorial to the Seneca Chief,
Red Jacket. A forceful orator, his Indian

name, Sagoycwatha, means “He Keeps
Them Awake.” Red Jacket advocated
peace with the white American citizens and
was awarded a silver medal by President
George Washington for his efforts.

Fillmore buried there
Millard Fillmore, thirteenth President of
the United States and first Chancellor of
the University of Buffalo, is buried within
the confines of Forest Lawn. A original
stone bearing only his initials “MF” stands
in his family burial plot. Since his death,
more grand, imposing memorials have been
erected to mark his grave. The Blocher
Family Memorial, carved in Italy, is
nationally famous. The milk-white marble
figures shine impressively inside their glass
housing. The huge memorial was carved
from a single piece of marble.
Frank B. Baird and Jacob Schoellkopf,
for whom Baird and Schoellhopf Halls
were named, rest in peace at Forest Lawn.
Cremation facilities were installed at
Forest Lawn in 1932 to meet its growing
demands. A “columbarium” was built for
the cremation memorial urns. Cremation is
accepted by nearly every faith. “About
thirty cremations a month occur at Forest
Lawn,” reported one employee.
Mausoleum to open
A mausoleum is also under construction
fdr people prefering above-ground burial.
It is scheduled to be completed by
Thanksgiving, said Mr. Miller. He added:
“It will have room for nearly 1300 coffins
and cremation urns.” Many individual
family mausoleums and “more modest”
sarcophagi are scattered about the
Cemetery grounds.
Excellent foresight by pasf trustees is
evidenced by the 1,500,000 square feet of
undeveloped land still available at Forest
Lawn.
The famous poem by Joyce Kilmer,
which begins “I think I shall never see, a
poem as lovely as a tree,” was inspired by a
walk through Forest Lawn, claims Charles
H. Keitsch, a former groundskeeper at the
Cemetery.
Forest Lawn is a fascinating place to
visit, but 1 wouldn.t want to lie there.

A letter from a group calling itself “The
Symbionese Liberation Regional Youth Unit”
claimed responsibility for the murder last
Tuesday of Marcus Foster, the 50-year old black
school superintendent, and the wounding of his
38-year old white assistant, Robert Blackburn.
The Liberation Army said in its letter to a
Berkeley radio station and a San Francisco
newspaper that Foster and Blackburn had been
marked for death “by a court of the people.”
The three- page letter said the men were guilty of
“crimes against children” for allegedly furnishing

Sirica metes out judgment
Washington Judge John J. Sirica sentenced three
participants in the Watergate break-in to minimum
prison terms of one year each, apparently assuring
their release by Christmas since they have already
been in jail almost a year. On Friday, Judge Sirica
meted out the heaviest sentence to E. Howard Hunt
who was given a two and a half to eight years
sentence and fined $10,000.
Another leader of the break-in, James W.
McCord, received a one' to‘‘.five-year sentence, : the'

Consumer advocate Ralph Nader and three
members of Congress, brought a suit to force acting
Attorney General Robert H. Bork to reinstate Mr.
Cox and also to reinstitute Cox’s office which Bork
abolished at the time he fired Cox on October 20.
Mr. Cox was hired under an order issued by former
Attorney General Elliot Richardson which stated the
special prosecutor could not be fired unless he
committed “extraordinary improprieties.”
In a related development, C.G. (Bebe) Rebozo,

Soldiers vs. generals
The attorney for the men, Donald G. Schultz, in
a plea for leniency, said: “The question is how much
more punishment do you mete out to soldiers in this
affair while the architects, the generals have not yet
spent one day in jail.” Sydney Sachs, Mr. Hunt’s
attorney, stated his client’s health is deteriorating
and that forcing to spend any more time in jail might
“do further harm to him.”
Mr. Barker’s daughter, Maria Jdoffett, told
reporters after the sentencing that it was “totally
unjust that Hunt gets 30 months and a pawn like my
father gets 18 months. Of course, with what he
(Hunt) is going to give them (the prosecutors),
they’re going to get Mitchell, Magruder and
ultimately the President of the United States.”
In another federal courtroom, U.S. District
Judge Gerhard A. Gesell, agreed Friday to rule
whether the firing of Archibald Cox as special
prosecutor was lawful. Mr. Gesell gave government
lawyers until Friday to submit any legal arguments
they want to make before he reaches a decision, to
be reached this week.

Nixon confident
■ The President said on national television
Wednesday night he was confident he could reassure
Americans in the months ahead that he had not
violated the trust of his office and White House
officials have indicated consideration is being given
to several possible ways to do this. The Senate
Watergate Committee wants to arrange some type of
meeting of at least a delegation of members with Mr.
Nixon to question him. Presidential aides have given
no indication that Nixon would agree to such a
session. The Senate Committee suggested an
informal meeting with no suggestion that Mr. Nixon
be under oath.
Former Attorney General Elliot Richardson said
that despite his resignation over differences with the
President or Watergate, he believes Mr. Nixon has
been fully truthful in denying complicity in the
scandals. Both Mr. Richardson and William
Ruckelshaus have urged full disclosure on the part of
the President regarding the Watergate affair.

Ed Tichi, a graduate student in the
Department of Educational Administration at
this University, knew of Mr. Foster’s reputation
while they were both in the Philadelphia school
system in 1970. Mr. Tichi said Mr. Foster’s
reputation was “excellent” and that he was
“highly spoken of by students, and he could do
things for them that couldn’t normally be done.
He was popular and well- liked.”
The school at wnich Foster taught wls
predominantly black, giving him what Mr. Tichi
termed a new edge in student-administration
communication. The office of Congressman
Roland V. Dellum (D., Oakland) also had no idea
what the motive behind the murder was. A
spokesman for the Congressman said there had
been talk that records t&gt;f peddle had been kcjh;
since they were two years old, but this was not
substantiated as a factor in the murder.

In a rather bizarre incident last week, the
Superintendent of the Oakland public school
system was murdered, and his Assistant
Superintendent wounded. The men were
apparently caught in a cross- fire of a shot-gun
and a revolver. Investigators have been unable to
establish a motive for the attack, but they did
indicate it was a planned execution.

Uganda praises Nixon

KAMPALA (UPI) Ugandan President Idi Amin Thursday praised
President Nixon’s handling of the Watergate scandal and said a weaker
man would have resigned or committed suicide.
“I wish to congratulate you and compliment you most sincerely
for this courageous stand,” Amin said in a telegram to Nixon. “I am
sure any other weak leader would have resigned or committed suicide
after being subjected to so much harassment because of the Watergate

Call for Israeli withdrawal

Sen. J. William Fulbright (D., Ark.)
WASHINGTON (UPI)
Friday called on the United States and the Soviet Union to persuade
and pressure Israel to give up Arab territory conquered since 1967 in
exchange for a superpower guarantee of her security.
Fulbright, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee',
said the precise terms of a peace settlement for the Middle East would
have to be worked dut in protracted negotiations.
“But the general requirements are clear,” Fulbright said in a Senate
speech. “The recovery of lost lands by the Arabs and security for
-

Israel.”

Fulbright said: “It is up to us, and up to the Russians, working
through the United Nations, to apply whatever degree of persuasion we
can, or whatever degree of pressure we must, to bring about a
compromise peace based upon the principles of the Security Council

Resolution of November, 1967.

WASHINGTON (UPI)
The AFL-CIO Thursday asked its 13.5

immediately.
The labor federation, launching a nationwide campaign, released a
bill of particulars giving what it considers grounds for impeachment.
Among the reasons listed were charges that Nixon has
“consistently lied” to the American people, that he has “used the
office of the Presidency for personal enrichment,” brought dishonor on
the office, violated the Constitution and caused “an erosion of public
confidence in our democratic system of government .”

Turkeys more expensive
WASHINGTON (UPI) With consumers having gobbled up more
turkeys than usual during the year because of high beef and pork
prices, Thanksgiving shoppers will find their traditional holiday fare
more expensive, this month than they did last year.
Although turkey production this year is slightly larger than a year
ago, Agriculture Department economists reported Thursday in an
“Outlook Digest” report, lower slaughter weights have offset the
increase and left consumers with about the same number of pounds of
turkey as last year.

State
Nader and Rockefeller dash on energy
A spokesman for Gov. Rockefeller Thursday termed President
Nixon’s recommendations for meeting the energy crisis as
“constructive” and noted the state had already begun moves in many
of the suggested areas. In an interesting contrast, consumer advocate
Ralph Nader criticized President Nixon’s energy conservation measures
as hitting consumers too hard.
Nader said the President’s proposal would have the consumer
not the oil industry or the utilities
make the sacrifices. He said
industry uses 70 per cent of the energy in the United States and that a
“great deal of it is wasted.”

Campus
Ministry to present films
The UB Campus Ministers is presenting a series of films concerned
with several religious, ethical and moral issues. They have already
shown two films concerned with the struggle of the American Indian,
and are planning to explore views of the Black experience, the
challenge of violence, criminal justice, economic survival, ecology and
the future. Chosen for their relevence to those topics, the films are
short and discussions on their content by the producers, or people
familiar with the subjects and someone from the ministry, will follow
their screenings.
The Ministry hopes the showing of these films will stimulate
awareness in the existence of the UB Campus Ministry, and
simultaneously expose the students to issues that are pertinent to their
relationships with people of different values and backgrounds, and
society as a whole. The Ministry feels the exploration of these issues
may enhance a growing awareness of religion from not only the
viewpoint of an individual to his God, but the understanding of other
people.

Mideast settlement

Six-poin t proposal accepted
hy Israelis and Egyptians
A

new

six-point

Mideast

cease-fire

plan

proposed by Secretary of State Henry Kissinger was
agreed to by Israel and Egypt on Friday.
The plan was aimed at easing the current
tension, resolving the immediate military difficulties,
and setting the basis for prompt peace negotiations.
Dr. Kissinger completed the plan while
conferring with Egyptian President Anwar el-Sadat
in Cairo. A draft of the agreement was forwarded to
Tel Aviv where it was approved by Israeli leaders. Dr.
Kissinger left Cairo shortly afterwards and continued
his diplomatic mission through the Arab states,
heading for meetings with King Hussein of Jordan
and Saudi Arabia’s King Faisal.
Details revealed
Exact details of jthe agreement were not
announced until Dr. Kissinger made them public late
last Friday. It contained the following points;
-Both sides agree to observe the cease-fire
mandated by the United Nations Security Council
on October 22.
-Israel and Egypt consent to immediate
discussions aimed at resolving territorial disputes and
disengaging forces along the cease-fire line.
—The town of Suez will receive daily supplies
and arrangements are being made for the evacuation
of all wounded and civilians.
-Israel will allow non-miLtary supplies to be
sent to the east bank of the Suez.
-U.N. observers will replace Israelis at the
checkpoints on the Cairo-Suez road. The Israelis will
be allowed to participate with the U.N. forces to
ensure that no military supplies are getting through-When U.N. observers take their positions, an
exchange of prisoners will begin.
-The Egyptian blockade in the Gulf of Suez
will be lifted immediately.
The news of the peace proposal was well
received in Tel Aviv. The moodl of the Israeli leaders
was described as “ebulient optimism.” It appears
that both sides will now cooperate to bring about a

Monday,

prompt end to the current hostilities. The peace
proposal was described by one Israeli official as “the
best chance for a lasting peace that we have had in
the last 25 years.”

Optimism shattered
The optimism generated by the agreement was
shattered briefly on Friday when Cairo announced it
had shot down two Israeli jets over the Suez. The
Israeli commrjid acknowledged the loss of a
reconnaissance plane, claiming it had been shot
down by Egyptian surface-to-air missiles. The
incident caused some friction, but it is not expected
to negate the peace agreement.
The agreement is only between Israel and Egypt.
Neither Jordan nor Syria have come to terms with
the Israelis. Officials in Tel Aviv do not appear
worried about this, maintaining as they have all
along that the other Arab states will follow suit once
an agreement is reached with Egypt.

U.S. stockpiles to be increased
Secretary Kissinger departed from Riyadh after
speaking with King Faisal and headed east for a
scheduled meeting with Pakistani leaders in
Islamabad, Pakistan. It was believed that Dr.
Kissinger had tried to get King Faisal to agree to an
easing of the Saudi Arabian oil embargo, but was
unsuccessful. Dr. Kissinger described his talks widT
President Sadat as “extremely constructive.” “My

missiles, ammunition, and transport planes to
establish a larger weapons stockpile. The need for
this increase was made obvious by recent losses of
American equipment in the October Mideast war.
The additional request would be added to the
original Defense Department budget of $79 billionf&gt;

Sociology Club helps
majors with problems
The undergraduate Sociology

several years of virtual inactivity.
The purpose of the club is to help
sociology msqors plan curriculums
and sequences for their degrees
and assist with other related
problems.
The club intends to acquaint
majors with various graduate
programs and meet other students
with similar interests. The
organization plans to provide job
opportunities information and
occupational advice. Club
members will have the
opportunity to become active in

is variously used from the seemingly simple black

more technically complex S color design by the
artist D’arcangelo. The silkscreen ‘Remembrance’
by Norio Azuma is thought provoking and subtle.
It is composed of rectangular forms whose edges
mesh into each other and into the dimensions of
the silkscreen. The feeling of deep and shallow

a feeling of receding and advancing space. In the
collection are also images by Josef Albers, Andy

the Albright Knox.
A silkscreen has been set up to demonstrate
the technique, the image being used is a brass
rubbing of medieval figures that was transferred
onto the silkscreen by a photographic process.

�Hockey

Goal barrage drowns B alls
by Daw Ceringer
Sports Editor

Powerful Bowling Green handed the hockey
Bulls their firt two losses of the season last Friday
and Saturday at Twin Rinks. The undefeated
Falcons won their second and third games of the
young season with 8-3 and 8-4 scores, while
dropping Buffalo’s record to 1-2.
Bowling Green broke the first contest open by
tallying three times within a span of 4S seconds,
Linemates Bob Dobek, Sieve Ball and Doug Ross
scored to increase the Falcons’ lead from 2-1 to S-l.
On Saturday night. Bowling Green scored three goals
within 47 seconds in the fitsfcperiod, and came back
to lock up the victory with three unanswered
second-period goals after the Bulls had closed the
gap to 3-2.
“HarcJ work, that’s what it takes,” offered
Falcon coach Ron Mason. “Last year, when I was at
Lake Superior, we beat Ohio State and we beat this
team [Bowling Green] 4 times the same way,”
Mason added.
-

&lt;

Falcons capitalize on opportunities
Buffalo played a stronger game Saturday night,
but tight forechecking enabled Bowling Green to
capitalize on seemingly every opportunity to score
eight goals. The Falcons would undoubtedly have
scored more than eight times Friday night had Bull

netminder John Moore not foiled the Falcons on
four breakaways.
Buffalo’s power play resulted in eight goals
during the two-game series, three for the Bulls and
five for Bowling Green. Both Buffalo power play
goals in Friday night’s contest came directly after
faceoffs in the Falcon zone as Buffalo was
repeatedly denied opportunities to set up their
power play attack by the Bowling Green
penalty-killers.
“Well, I think that we showed that we do have
pride and dignity,” asserted Buffalo coach Ed
Wright. “We indicated shade of such as we didn’t die.
We played a much better game tonight, but we were
playing a real good team in Bowling Green.”

Wright disappointed
Wright was somewhat disappointed with the
Bulls’ play. “I think that defensively, we showed
that we haven’t improved as much as we hoped,”
said Wright. “In addition, we need to forecheck a
little more, and we’ve got to start playing the body
more. Bowling Green played the body very well,”
added Wright.
The Bulls will journey to Clarkson Friday to
face a squad that has consistently been a powerhouse
in ECAC Divison I. Buffalo will then return home to
face Kent State Sunday after noon before hosting
archrival Oswego next Tuesday night at Twin Rinks.

Evaluation urges reforming
and pre serving the Colleges
by Gary Cohn

Contributing Editor

“We regard the Collegiate system as an instrument of
high intellectual and social promise, a resource whose most
significant uses have only begun to be perceived.”
This assessment was found in the long-awaited
external evaluation of the Colleges, a 25-page document
released Tuesday. Detailing both strengths and weaknesses
of the Colleges as a whole, the report recommended
transforming the present Collegiate system into a new
Collegiate system “without killing the essence of life in the

process.”

The report, which was reprinted in yesterday’s
Reporter, culminated a thorough investigation of the
Colleges by a team of five distinguished scholars from
various universities.
The external evaluating team cited five
characteristics of the Collegiate system as “most worth
preserving”: (1) motivation and enthusiasm; (2) attention
to slighted perspectives and values; (3) sense of
community; (4) fostering of social awareness and
involvement; and (5) experiential and interdisciplinary
learning.

Zeal and enthusiasm
“A sense of zeal and crusading search for new
educational and expressive forms permeates some of the
Colleges,” stated the report in discussing
students and faculty. “This concern has persisted even in
the absence of substantia] support from the University,”
the report continued.
It cited the “freedom-movement vitality of the
Women’s Studies College, the sense of effectiveness of
those engaged in community action
CP. Snow College and Rachel Caf
search for scientific excellence in College D and the
residential congeniality of College B.”
The expression of “alternative points of view on
economic, political and cultural aspects of society” was
cited as a strength of the Colleges. Specifically, the report
mentioned Social Sciences College and Women’s Studies
College as expressing viewpoints “that do not appear
adequately represented within regular university fare.”

enthusiasm,” sated the report, giving a course in palmistry
as an example. However, the report cautioned against
assuming that all courses in “trendy” or “pseudo-scientific
subjects” were being taught by unqualified instructors. If
an instructor’s enthusiasm led to a “mastery of the ..
subject,” then a “lack of formal credentials would not
matter.” For instance, the courses in parapsychology “are
taught by instructors who are well prepared,” according to
the report.
.

Partisan persuasion
“Partisian advocacy” was criticized by the
evaluators: “A teacher who feels passionately about his
theories will try his best to persuade the students of the
or, in a few cases, go beyond
correctness of his theories
persuasion.” For example, “when Plato was studied in
College F, the partisian defense of homosexuality
generated interpretations of the text that were patently
wrong,” the report explained.
Discussing the alleged lower standards in College
courses, the report stated: ‘The general suspicion that
undemanding courses are more numerous in the Colleges
than in the departments may be justified.” However, it
cautioned that “this type of course may not really be
typical of the Collegiate system as a whole.”
While acknowledging that “lazy, untalented, or
unscrupulous students may use the Colleges to earn their
degrees with less intellectual effort or with a higher
...

abuses curtailed only if its critics can acknowledge its
virtues, its advocates .can acknowledge its abuses, and all
parties can come to understand the relations between
those strengths and weaknesses,” stated the report in a call
for accommodation.
The Collegiate system can never be made completely
free from flaws, the report stressed. “The possibility of
abuses is a price worth paying in return for the presence of
virtues,” it asserted.
The evaluators called for “collegiate autonomy”
while insisting upon procedures to insure “academic
integrity.”
All instructors teaching courses should have the
“rrequisite competence,” the evaluators strongly
recommended. “One who knows a subject well may teachit badly, but one who does not know it well will surely
teach it badly,” they reasoned.
The report also suggested incorporating the talents
of those “whose competence is not judged on the baas of
normal academic credentials” with those of regular faculty
members.
‘There is no subject matter that is intrinsically
unsuitable for academic inquiry,” the report asserted.
Specifically, the report mentioned the value of teaching
“seemingly non-intellectual pursuits” such as crafts,
mystical behavior and parapsychology.
The evaluators stressed the importance of continual
experimentation and assessment: “Innovative enterprises
should be encouraged, and the inhibiting effects of fear or
failure should be mitigated by a spirit of
adventuresomeness.” Appealing for adherence to the
“canons of honesty,” the report explained: “Grades may
be used or not. They should not be abused.”
Individual Colleges can assume a variety of forms,
and should not be restricted solely to residential Colleges
,

Learning-by-experience
The report also praised the “sense of intimate
community and shared intellectual and social concerns” as
highly conducive to learning. A further positive aspect of
“community” cited by the report was “the participation
of students in the policy-making and administration of
academic life.”
Involvement in real community problems can add an
important dimension to learning and can increase student
motivation, according to the report. “Particularly striking
examples include CP. Snow College and College Z in their
studies and activities in legal aid, ho
and urban studies; Rachel Carson College in its address to
environmental problems; and Women’s Studies College in
its interest in seeking equal rights for women within the
University and on a wide frontier.”
The report described various
learning-by-experiencing programs found in some of the
Colleges as “valuable.” It particularly cited the College Z
program involving students in current courtroom cases and
the Rachel Carson environmental action program involving
students in local pollution control enforcement.
Weaknesses noted
The weaknesses called “most important to combat”
by the external evaluators were: (1) Bad faith in regard to
agreed upon rules and procedures; (2) Lax standards in
selecting instructors; (3) Tolerance of partisan advocacy;
(4) Disregard for University standards regarding work and
grades: (5} Lack of adequate financialand faculty support;
and (6) Lack of healthy relations with the rest of the
University.
As examples of “bad faith,” the report noted the
“not uncommon” Collegiate practice of repeating or
slightly changing an experimental course without
submitting the course to the procedure for regularizing it.
College E was specifically criticized for psing this
procedure.
“Some of the controversial [College] courses are
taught by people whose only qualification seems to be

grade-point average than they could have done otherwise,”
the report maintained that distribution requirements and
the requirements for various majors make it impossible for
students to take more than a few “undemanding” courses.
No transcript stigma
Disputing the contention that College courses on a
student’s transcript adversely affect his graduate school
and job acceptances, the report stated there is no
“convincing evidence that graduate schools, professional
schools or potential employers have become wary of
Buffalo graduates because of the Collegiate system.”
The report also noted “woefully inadequate financial
support” by the Administration as a weakness besetting
the Colleges. Inadequate budgets often guarantee “not
only barely reputable projects, but also a hostile outsider
mentality.”
A flrfal weakness cited by the report was the
“ruinous confrontational relations” between the Colleges
and Administration. The present Collegiate Assembly
“reflects and magnifies” these bad relations, forcing the
Colleges into “intransigent, amateurish arguments “and an
authoritarian role.”
Virtues override abuses
The evaluating committee outlined a series of
recommendations under which the Collegiate System
could be reformed. “Its virtues can be preserved and its

as originally conceived, the report stated.
Finally, the report called for a “reallocation of
University resources” to provide support “at a level
adequate for the programs of the Colleges.” The
reallocation should include both “direct funding of
Collegiate activities” and “new financial incentives” to
reward academic departments whose faculty commit time
to the Colleges.
The evaluators recommended that the University
“initiate immediately a process to transform the present
Collegiate system into a new Collegiate system in the spirit
of changing one living organism into another without
killing the essence of life in the process.
Specifically, the report recommended a five-step
process for carrying out the transformation, to be
completed by the end of the 1974-75 academic year.
First, the report advocated the creation of an ad hoc
i committee to carry out the transformation of the
Collegiate System. This committee should consist of the
faculty and student members of the Faculty-Senate
committee on the Colleges, two College students and two
masters/coordinators elected by the Collegiate Assembly,
plus the Ddirector of the Colleges.
Secondly, the report recommended a new Collegiate
prospectus which would clearly state the “criteria which a
College must satisfy.” This prospectus should detail

Feigelis, Susan Collins and Emily Brown proposed
the institution of more cooking facilities, coin
changers, a place to cash checks, a ticket office for
Main Campus events, health services, study rooms,
more buses to shopping centers, pinball and air
hockey, a dark room and keeping the Law Library
open until midnight. More vending machines should
be installed, suggested Jeanne Perry, mail service
should be improved, mail should be delivered on
Saturdays, and bus shelters should be erected now
for the bad weather. Another student suggested that
North Campus residents be permitted to use the
Audubon Amherst Recreation Center located near
the campus. Its facilities, which include an ice
skating rink, are presently open only to residents of
the town of Amherst.
Other suggestions included basketball courts,
dances, coffee houses, a bar, a trampoline, an
exorcise room, a crafts center and a whorehouse.
Students- also suggested improvements which have
already been instituted. Complaints from the Main
Campus were minimal, mostly centering around the
lack of adequate cooking facilities and a quiet place
to study. Many students seemed temporarily content
while planning to move off campus next semester.

should describe “educational objectives, programs and the

form this transformed Collegiate structure, the new units
need not coincide with existing College units one for one;
the report encouraged different Colleges with a “common

In approving these proposals, the ad-hoc committee

The evaluators rejected a proporsl that the Colleges
be separated into “the good and the bad” with good
Colleges receiving increased support and “bad” Colleges
being phased out. This was similar to a proposal advanced
by Academic Affairs vice president Bernard Gelbaum,
which suggested slashing the present number of Colleges
by two-thirds.
“We find it not possible to make a clear separation
of the Colleges into the two groups. Rather, we find in
practically every College that which is admirable as well as

Ending the most confusing piur of acronyms in

memory, the’ Student Association

of the State

University, Inc. (SASU) and the State University
Student Assembly (SUSA) have merged into one
organization. The metgbd organization, to be led by
SASU chairperson Brian J. PetraitiS, was voted into
existence at the SUSA meeting in Albany last
weekend, following months of questions regarding
the need for both groups.

The original idea for a state-wide student
organization resulted from student disenchantment

Chancellor, Dr. Boyer said he did not know enough
about SASU to make a decision. A committee of ten
student presidents was selected to periodically meet
with the' Chancellor to discuss the matter. At the
outset of these meetings, Dr. Boyer made it clear
that he was unwilling to designate SASU as the
official student governance body because it was an
“independent corporation over which the Chancellor
could exert no control.” The Chancellor also
objected to the dues SASU charged its member
student governments.

Independence required
For its organization to be truly politically
independent of the State University, SASU felt,
financial independence had to be guaranteed.
Therefore, it depended on the students it
represented for operating funds.The impasse was broken in December 1972
when SASU, believing that the Chancellor would
never officially recognize it in its present form,
proposed a “dual” organization to act as the
“representative” and “service” arms of the student
body. After several months of negotiations, this
proposal was agreed upon by all concerned. SUSA
was created to act as the governance body on SUNY
affairs, and SASU continued to represent student
concerns to the State Legislature and other agencies
external to the State University.
Last . weekend, the two organizations were
consolidated 1 into an “umbrella” group called the
“Student Association of the State University of New
York” (SASU).
The “new” SASU has the Student Assembly as
the policy-making body, and SASU, Inc. as the
“teeth” of the organization.
Mr. Petraitis, now chairperson of the umbrella
organization, compared the arrangement to that of
the Student Association and Sub Board 1 on this
campus.

with the method used by the State University of
New York (SUNY) Board of Trustees in selecting
L. Boyer as Chancellor of SUNY in the early
Ernest
summer df 19701. Hie five student government
presidents, who formed the nucleus of the dissenting
group, felt the appointment had been made without
sufficient consultation with students.
Student government leaders gathered in Albany
iif October 1970' for the, first session of the
newly-formed SASU.;By-lawi adopted at the first

Recognition lacking
During the next two years, student support of
SASU solidified and its operations became ’more
professional. However, it was unable to obtain
formal recognition from the SUNY Board of
'

Trustees.

Acting on the recommendation of SASU leaders
in spring 1972, Chancellor Boyer proposed in .the

1972 SUNY Master Plan that a University-wide
for the
“student delegate body
be designated
purpose of formulating and communicating to the
Chancellor the views of all students."
In September 1972, SASU urged student
governments of all SUNY schools to go on record to
support the designation of SASU as this official
representative organization.
When student presidents proposed this tofthe

...

“This move guarantees that State University
students will have one, unified student representative
voice,” Mr. Pet rail is explained. “Additionally., it
guarantees that valpable student services will
continue to be provided and that students will have a
representative organization that will be fiscally
independent of the State University.”
SASU is involved in thre main areas of student
representation. It is a legislative body, dealing with
appropriation of student activity fees and tuition. Its
wire service to SUNY (chools provides the latest
information on campus and SASU. Jnc. events. In
addition, it offers student services such as “Purchase
Power,” insurance policies and travel discounts.
rWhen SASU Inc. was independent, a
membership fee was chaiged to all schools. The fee
wgs based oni the number of full-time students
enrolled in each school. SUSA, on the other hand,
was financed by the Board of Trustees. When the
two joined, many felt that' any fee could be
eliminated.
Reflecting sentiment, that to be truly
independent, SASU, Inc. must be financially
independent, Mr. Petraitis asserted that the fee
would -remain. “All schools are entitled to
membership in the Student Assembly at no cost.
Membership in SASU, Inc. is strictly voluntary,” said
Mr. Petraitis. He added that almost all schools do
belong to SASU, Inc.
In the recent SASU-SUSA elections, the same
candidates ran for positions in both organizations.
This added to questions about the need for both
poups. When asked what will be done with the
election results now that the two groups have
merged, Mr. Petraitis answered; “In only one
instance was there any conflict, and that problem is
being worked out.”

�Election ’73

Democrats sweep
county and state

I

Democrats in Erie County swept to an avalanche victory
in Tuesday’s election.
Mayor Stanley Makowski defeated Republican challenger
Stewart Levy by nearly a three-to-one margin. With 418 of
467 election districts reporting, Mr. Makowski led Mr. Levy by
77,569 to 24,423. Mr. Makowski said it was a “scary feeling”
to have so many people vote for him. Earlier in the campaign,
he had expressed the hope that the election would be close.
In the race for University District Councilman,
Republican incumbent Charles Volkert suffered a resounding
defeat at the hands of Democrat Bill Price. Mr. Price won by a
margin of nearly two-to-one. Incomplete totals gave Mr. Price
7,241 votes to Mr. Volkert’s 5,309. Mr. Price credited his
victory to a coalition of “young and old; all races and ethnic
groups.”
The Democrats increased their hold oi» the Erie County
Legislature as Susan Lubick ousted Republican Kevin
Brinkworth. The Democrats missed electing Harold Izard by
250 votes, which would have given them the necessary votes to
override any vetoes by Republican County Executive Edward
Regan. At present, the margin in the Legislature will be 13
Democrats and 7 Republicans.
Republican Charles Brietel obtained a comfortable
majority in the upstate areas and resisted a large surge of
Democratic New York City votes to defeat Jacob Fuchsberg
for Chief Judge of the State Court of Appeals.
The $3.5 billion Transportation Bond issue was also
defeated, primarily by upstate opposition outside Erie County.
The proposition carried both New York City and Erie County,
but was defeated by nearly a 2-to-l margin elsewhere in the
state. The proposed Buffalo Convention Center was defeated
by a close margin; vote counts were unavailable at press time.
Sheriff Mike Amico swamped his Republican challenger,
Sam Giambrone, by a total of 185,682 to 84,993. Democrat
Joseph Tauriello was elected State Senator for the 55th
District over Republican Peter Fiorella,and Democrat Edward
Cosgrove was the victor in the race for District Attorney.
An elected school board, to be chosen in May instead of
November, was approved by Buffalo voters by 35,049 to
27,841. Final figures were unavailable at press time, but
Democrat Abe Beame seemed headed for a sure sweep in the
race for New York City Mayor, with the other votes divided
among the other three candidates. Democratic mayors were
elected across New York State, highlighted by a ninth
consecutive term for Albany’s Democratic mayor. Republicans
suffered widespread defeat across the nation, which many
observers interpreted as a result of widespread voter
disenchantment with

72 election invalid

One year after his landslide
defeat by Richard M. Nixon, Sen.
George S. McGovern called the
197 2 Presidential election
“invalid” because “it Was not
based on all the known facts.
“The covcr*up was too
successful,” he said, “and if the
American people knew a year ago
what they now know about this
Administration, I’m convinced
that Mr. Nixon would have been
voted out of office no matter who
his Democratic challenger would
have been.” Sen. McGovern
Nixon would, resign
predicted

Mr. Nixofl" received; support
from 81 -year-old Sen. George L.

Aiken (R., Vt.) who urged the
President not to resign and said
the House of Representatives
should set a deadline by which
time it should either impeach Mr.
Nixon or declare that he is guilty
of no impeachable offense.
“Either impeach him or get off his
back,” Sen. Aiken emphasized.
In another Watergate related
development, Mary Woods,
President Nixon’s personal
secretary for more thah 20 years,
was expected to testify in the
Watergate tape bearings this week.
Douglas Park*;, one of the
President’s attorneys assigned to
the hearings, said the White'House
would make no objection to her
testimony. U.S. District Court
Judge John J. Sirica ordered Ms.
Woods Tuesday to appear before
him to answer questions about the
tapes after White House Aide
Stephen Bull revealed she has had
possession of fourteen tapes sided
late September. Ms, Woods has
been reportedly transcribing
conversations on the tapes.

Key objecthfciB ■
Judge Sirica reoutlined his
three key objectives at the
opening of the third day of
hearing Wednesday. The court is
attempting to establish the chain
of possession of the tape
recordings, to find out how they
were guarded and who had access
to them, and to ascertain the
reasons that might explain the
non-existence of tapes of two
Watergate-related conversations
by the President, people whose
only qualification seems to be
enthusiasm,” stated the
Wednesday that President Nixon
should agree to drop all claims of
executive privilege in the
investigations of the Watergate
scandals. “I see no other way at
this juncture of providing the

reassurance necessary to the
Congress and the American people
that the special prosecutor can get
to the bottom of all these

matters,” he stated in an
appearance before the Senate
Judiciary Committee. “We have
reached the point where it seems
to me any further conversation
about privilege ought to be
eliminated,” Mr. Richardson
added.

Job finished

Wright is back; home in Texas

stages. The first, effective immediately, requires
government agencies to reduce the temperatures in
federal office buildings by 8 degrees to
approximately 65 degrees, which Mr. Nixon claimed
“would make us all more healthy." This reduction is
to be coupled with a SO mph speed limit for all
federal government vehicles. Prior to the speech, Mr.
Nixon conferred with state and local leaders from
accross the country and asked them to take similar
measures. All Americans must do what they can to
“meet the challenge,” he said.
Again emphazing a joint effort, the President
called for staggered working and school hours and
the formation of car pools wherever possible. If “we
join with the spirit and the determination of the
American people, then half the battle will be won,”
Mr. Nixon said.

Extending Daylight Savings
The President conceded that the crisis may
worsen due to the unstable political situation in the
Middle East.. To cope with this possibility, he
detailed a series of further contingency proposals to
be put into effect if necessary. He urged Congress to
pass an Emergency Energy Act before its December
recess so that the Executive branch would be
empowered to take emergency measures if the need

Won’t walk away
The President’s strong appeal for all Americans
to unite implied that Mr. Nixon was going to be the
one to lead this effort. He dealt specifically with the
question of his ability to retain his office after listing
his proposals. Noting that it was one year ago that he
was re-elected by an overwhelming majority, the
President said he had made “great progress in
achieving the goals I set forth in my re-election
campaign.”
Mr. Nixon made a brief reference to the
“deplorable Watergate matter,” but maintained his
ability to secure the “confidence” of the American
people and stated outright that he had “no intention
whatever of walking away from the job I was elected
to do.” He expressed his hope that future months
would prove he had “not violated the trust” of the
American people, pledged to do everything possible
to be “worthy of that trust in the future.”
Terming his energy policy “Project
Independence,” and comparing it to the massive
wartime effort of the Manhattan (atomic bomb)
Project, the President stressed the need for a
“strength of self-sufficiency” that would allow the
US. to meet its energy needs without the aid of
foreign nations. Mr. Nixon said his goal Was to
develop the capacity to meet our energy needs
without foreign aid by 1980.
Mr. Nixon called for prompt approval of the
Alaska pipeline without “burdensome and
unnecessary restrictions,” an increase in research and
development programs, and an effort to tap
yet-unused natural resources.

announcement.

“It was my secretary who told
me,” Mr. Wright said. “She said,
’You won’t believe this, but two
of the tapes don’t exist. You
should hear it from us before
hearing it on the radio’.” Mr.
Wright did not know whether the
two disputed conversations had
ever been reporded, but was
willing to accept the White House
statement that they had not been.
“I believe my colleagues, 1
believe the-&gt; President,” he said.
But he added that if it turned out
the two tapes had existed and
then been destroyed, he would
withdraw from all participation in
the White House case.
MeaVwhile, former assistant
Attornhy General William
Ruckelshaus, who spoke at this
University Monday, revealed' that

Once again a slight technicality
has gained enough momentum to
create major difficulties for an
individual at this University.
Thomas Wolfe, assistant
professor of Geography, was
informed in June of this year that
his three-year contract would not
be renewed in September 1974.
The only explanation offered, he
indicated, was that his Ph.D had
not been completed. Since he
expected to receive his doctorate
shortly from McMaster University
in Hamilton, Canada, Mr. Wolfe
was not pverly concerned at the

October 3, “Dr.” Wolfe requested
that he recommend contract

Internships offered
for State Legislature

interns will be expected to
participate in Political Science
431 (“Legislative Internship”) and
a weekly legislative seminar
discussion. Attendance is optional
in two other Political Science
courses dealing with the Congress
and state and local governments.
Finally, each intern will be
required to produce a
bibliographic essay from the
available literature on the New
York State Legislature.
In order to complete their
investigation, each intern will be
assigned to work with a group of
legislators and their staffs. The
internship work is expected to
require nearly 40 hours per week.
Commitment to SASU
Interns will have a
responsibility to SASU in addition
to their academic responsibilities.
Besides satisfactory completion of
the program, students will be
expected to organize and
coordinate the annual SASU
legislative conference. Interns will
contribute to the bi-weekly SASU
legislative reports, the SASU press
service, and the monthly SASU
newsletter, Update.
Evaluation of each intern will
be based upon their completion of
the academic requirements, not
on the internship experience
itself. Grades will be determined
by each intern’s supervising
faculty member. However,
recommendations and evaluations
of the SASU supervisors regarding
the duties performed for SASU
will -also be considered in
awarding final grades.
Application deadline for the
SASU legislative internship
program is November 26. All
those interested must secure the
necessary information and
application immediately, either by
contacting the Political Science
department at 4238 Ridge Lea or
Ray Glass, the SASU legislative
director, at 109 State Street,
Albany, N.Y. 12207, or call (518)
465-2406.
Applicants will be selected on
the basis of writing, research,
speaking ability and various other
criteria. Applicant interviews are
scheduled in Albany for Friday,
November 30. Final selection of

candidates will be conducted on
December 1 and 2.
Selected interns will be
encouraged to attend the second
meeting of the State University
Student Assembly (SUSA)
scheduled for December 7-9 at the
State University College at
Buffalo. Those selected will also
be expected to attend a 2-3 day
orientation program in Albany
which will take place in late
December or early January.
A legislative internship
program at Albany is being
sponsored by the Student
Association of the State
University (SASU) for the spring
semester of 1974. This program
will be open to all students who
are attending any four-year school
of the State University of New
York (SUNY).
The intership program will
allow those students seeking
experience in legislative
government to do so in a full-time
program combining work and
study, according to Ray Glass,
legislative director of SASU.
Working directly with the State
Legislature, each intern will do
legislative research, draft
legislation, find sponsors for bills
and prepare testimony in support
of legislation. The program is also
designed to increase
communication between
legislators and students by
developing accurate information
on legislative issues which are of
student interest.

Academic credit
Six interns will be chosen to
work and monitor the daily
activities of the 1974 State
Legislature. The students will be
required to live in Albany and pay
their own living and traveling
expenses. Credit for the program
will be arranged either through
the student's home campus or
through the Albany State visiting
student program.
SASU’s legislative interns will
be restricted to issues specifically
relating to students and higher
education. Participants will
analyze specific legislative issues
or some aspect of the legislative
process in consultation with a
supervising faculty member. All

The BSR 810 and 710 have their brains in

holding eight precision-molded cams. When
the cam shaft turns, the cams make things
happen. A lock is released, an arm raises and

the arm is lowered, the arm stops, the arm raises
again, it swings back; another record is dropped
onto the platter, the arm is lowered again,
and so on, for as many hours as you like.
Deluxe turntables from other companies do
much the same thing, but they use many
more parts—scads of separate swinging arms,
gears, plates, and springs—in an arrangement that is not nearly as mechanically

considerably more vibration, and is much

Reorganization of the
University was considered at the
Faculty-Senate meeting Tuesday
by President Robert Ketter, who
offered three reasons why the
present system was being
questioned.
The recent Middle States
accreditation report evaluating
this University “found it virtually
impossible to see who was
responsible for what,” Dr. Ketter
said. He has received “hundreds of
complaints from deans, vice
presidents and provost? asking
what they are supposed to do and
what responsibilities are theirs,”
Dr. Ketter explained. Finally, “it

hospitals, Health Sciences tends to
lose touch with the rest of the
school, Dr. Ketter explained.
President Ketter suggested
several changes in the present
system. An office could be
created for long-range budget
planning to insure that the goals
originally set for the school’s
factions are not being forgotten.
This would prevent departmental
goals from being controlled by
budget allotments and insure that
it works the other way around.
Other systems that might be
instituted, according to Dr.
Ketter, are similar to the present
one at SUNY af Stony Brook
graduate school in which the
university is divided into four
schools; health science,
mathematical and engineering
sciences, sociology and behavioral
science (including education and
law), and humanities (including
history and philosophy).
Faculty will decide
Dr. Ketter conceded the
present system might prove to be
the most efficient. “It is
undesirable to switch systems
unless the change would benefit
the University,” said Dr. Ketter.
“Is the trauma of reorganization
worth it?” The question was left
for the faculty to decide.
Admissions policy is also
undergoing a change. The
Faculty-Senate Admissions
Committee formed last summer is
considering a new plan for
admissions. The plan was

amendments were suggested and
debated. A new admissions
category for special achievement
is being considered by the
committee (see page 6].
President Ketter explained the
reason for his recent trip to
Korea. Last August the president
of Kyung Pook National
University in Taegu, Korea, came
to the US. to observe several
universities. When he returned to
Korea, he wrote a letter to
President Ketter requesting him to
consider a cooperative between
the two universities. After much
thought. President Ketter
concluded that “there are some

g gar
sisterhood relationship.” The
University of Kyung Pook is said
to be the most up-and-coming
college in the Orient. The students
are of high caliber and most speak
English.
The agreement between the
two schools includes: an exchange
of professors between the schools;
an exchange of students;
cooperative research projects;
exchange of research materials;
and pursuit of other projects of
mutual interest. President Ketter
noted that the exchange of
American and Korean students
would not take place until the
facilities abroad were improved.

The Colleges
After years of the criticisms, counter-criticisms, polemics and
dissension that have plagued the Colleges since their birth, a rational,
objective assessment of the Collegiate system has now been completed.
Following an internal evaluation that was essentially favorable, five
distinguished scholars from other universities have completed a 25-page
document which deteils, with profound insight, perspective and
sensitivity/ the strengths and weaknesses of the Colleges and
recommendations for improvement.
This is not just another bureaucratic report, for the external
evaluation, highly-touted by the Administration, is the freshest, most
comprehensive look at the Colleges in years. The report applauds the
strengths of the Colleges, which have long been obvious to Collegiate
supporters but minimized by the Administration. Noting an enrollment
of 6000 after four years, the report praises the Colleges' motivation,
enthusiasm and sense of community. The community action programs
of Z, C.P. Snow and Rachel Carson received special mention, but the
Colleges overall were praised for their attention to slighted perspectives
going
and values; interdisciplinary learning; and social involvement
beyond mere classroom analysis of social problems into active studies
of housing, legal aid, urban, environmental and transit problems.
The external evaluators also shot down the myth that College
courses blemish a student's transcript in the eyes of grad schools and
employers. They agreed with the long-standing College complaint that
the Colleges are not adequately supported by the Administration,
either financially or through sharing faculty with academic
departments. The report thus called for accommodation between the
Administration and the Colleges, rightly noting that while the Colleges
lack leadership and internal cohesion, bad relations force the divided
Collegiate Assembly into defensive arguments and the Administration
into an authoritarian role. This adversary relationship must end.
No one has ever claimed the Colleges are perfect, and the report
detailed several weaknesses. These included inadequate evaluation of
experimental courses (experimentation was encouraged; so was
academic scrutiny of those experiments) and dubious standards for
selection of instructors. They ask that undergraduate, graduate and
non-faculty instructors be supervised by a University faculty member.
This is a faculty-supremacy suggestion which falsely assumes that
otherwise-competent instructors must be wet-nursed by faculty
members. However, the report rightly noted that while enthusiasm may
not equal proficiency, a tack of formal credentials does not necessarily
mean an instructor is unqualified.
They criticized the high proportion of "undemanding" courses in.
some Colleges, noting that students opting exclusively for these courses
may earn a degree through less effort and with more A's than
otherwise, but indicated that distribution requirements make it
impossible for a student to take more than a few of these courses. The
criticism may be valid, but unstructured, unconventional or
experimental courses are not necessarily undemanding, a false equation
advanced by some administrators.
Fortunately, the report noted that the Colleges can never be made
completely free from flaws: and its virtues outweigh its abuses. They
completely free from flaws; and its virtues outweigh its abuses. They if
procedures ere established to insure competent instructors and a
standard of academic integrity for every credit-granting course. They
encourage both teacher diversity and experimentation, explaining there
is no subject matter unsuitable for academic inquiry. Grades and credit
should be de-emphasized and not abused; experimental courses should
be objectively evaluated; obsolete ventures should be gracefully

terminated.
The report rejected such plans as Dr. Gelbaum's proposal to slash
the number of Colleges by two-thirds. Instead, it called for a
representative ad hoc committee to create a new Collegiate Prospectus
and transform the structure of the Colleges into a new structure. Each
present College can apply for membership in this new community, or
similar units can merge and apply.
The aim is to lend legitimacy to the new alignment, with the ad
hoc committee approving the new structure and Administration
ratification "expected to be the norm."
The report's examination of Collegiate strengths and weaknesses
should provide the Colleges with an invaluable guide for
self-improvement. In accordance with the report's recommendations,
the Administration must financially support the Colleges without
resorting to paternalistic dictates. The recommendation for a
transformed structure which would retain the life essence of the
present structure is a sound one. There are three dangers: that the
report will not translate itself into practical reforms; that the Colleges
will react over-defensively to the report's criticisms; and that the
Administration will act on certain recommendations and ignore others.
The Colleges must attempt to achieve internal cohesion, academic
integrity and viable procedures for its valuable course experimentation.
But both the Colleges and the students who take their courses must
fight to insure that this excellent external evaluation it fairly and
comprehensively considered, not manipulated for partisan purposes.

travel the boroughs, or return to the black or
Puerto Rican ghettoes, where he campaigns so
lustily for Governor. He is now campaigning for
President. And he does that act in another
country.

The other day, he brought his new act to
Phoenix, Ariz., where he pandered for the future
votes of the Goldwater Republicans. Rockefeller
remembers them: they screamed and booed and
shouted filth at him in 1964. He remembers these
people all right. He remembers them in
California, when they made the midnight calls,
heaping abuse on his wife. He remembers how
they denied him the nomination for President.
And now he is going to them, joining up with
them, embracing the whole rotten country club
system of bigotry and money that spawned
Haldeman, Rehnquist, Ehrlichman, Nixon and
Goldwater.
•

“We are going to have to be a tougher
people,” Rockefeller said, winking', cajoling,
performing for 1300 Goldwaterites at the
Phoenix Trunk ‘n’ Tusk dinner. And the
Goldwaterites cheered and whistled. Oh, yeah,
let’s get tough. Let’s get those Neegroes and
Portareekins offa the welfare, boy. Let’s get
tough with everybody. Beautiful.
And, Of course, he talked about welfare.
Nelson Rockefeller never worked for a buck in
his life; he was born to inherited wealth. His
audience was made up of those people who
would do almost anything to get rich. Naturally
he talked about welfare. But you can be certain
those people never had to fight rats or roaches in
the night, understand the humiliation of a
welfare office, worry about clothes for their kids
when school opens, or think about where to get a
tree when Christmas arrives. This was a meeting
of the Old Rich and the Cowboy Rich, and
Rockefeller was telling them what they wanted
to hear. About how tough he was.
He told them about how he made welfare
recipients start picking up their checks in person,
and thus cut the rolls by 23 per cent. Real tough.
“They didn’t show because they either had a job
or they had an account or they lived in Puerto
,
Rico or some other country or some other
state,” he said, and in the words of The Tima, he
was “smiling along with his audience.”
This is not to say that there have been no
abuses in welfare, or that it isn’t necessary to
,

liberal Republican, goes before a gang of
Goldwater Republicans and starts bragging about
such things, then he has abandoned his
commitment to New York and is running for
President with die rightists. I think a guy who
lives in Bensonhurst, and earns 133 bucks and
change a week, can complain about welfare; but
not a guy like Nelson Rockefeller who was a
millionaire the day he was bom.
Rockefeller also told the Goldwater people
that part of the problem he had as Govenor was
that some people had a philosophical view that
welfare was “an opportunity to develop a new
method of redistributing wealth.” This is in
contrast, I suppose, to the Rockefellers, and the
Nixon people, and the whole Goldwater country
club crowd, who have been engaged in the largest
program of redistributing wealth in American
history. Only it is being redistributed from the
poor to the rich.
There are some warnings here for New
Yorkers. When Rockefeller starts moving around
with the Goldwater people, his focus has been
distorted. It has to be. The needs of New York
are simply not the same as the needs of Phoenix
or Scottsdale. Those country club people will
take advantage of the superb welfare programs
instituted for the rich; they are not really
interested in the needs of the poor. Anywhere.
But certainly not in New York.

If Rockefeller has really gone that .way, then
he should remove himself from the Governor’s
chair in Albany, and, be that “new” Nelson
Rockefeller on a full-time basis. He can wander
around the country, telling rich people how he is
going to build a greater U.S., and they can cheer,
and he can wink, and pump their hands, and they
can all laugh together at other people’s human
tragedy. But he shouldn’t be doing that as
Governor of New York.
Those people Out There have been sponging
off the wealth of New York for too long. We
send the federal government billions and get back
a pittance, because our money is building their
highways, their housing, their fortunes.
Rockefeller should know that his bottom line

Mr. Wolfe should be Dr. Wolfe.
This may seem trivial, but Dr. Wolfe’s contract
has not been renewed; allegedly because he doesn’t

tried to remedy the situation by submitting to Dr.
Ketter and the Provost’s office proof that he has
obtained the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, but no
action has been taken
A correction in Monday’s The Spectrum may

transportation.
According to former Secretary of the Interior
Stewart L. Udall, the American people are “energy
pigs” and the nation is operating on the misguided
assumption that the energy crisis is a short-term
problem. According to Mr. Udall, Americans can
expect “the first cold shower in about sixty days,”
and while supplies are becoming increasingly
inaccessible, demand continues to rise. Mr. Udall
noted that prospects for increased domestic supply
are dim; America is the most commercially explored
in the world. We now import ten percent of our oil,
and if we continue to use oil at our present rate, we
will have to import 35 per cent by 1980.
The present Arab oil boycott, besides ironically
underlining the fact that the former colonial powers
are now at the mercy of their former colonies, also
highlights the unstable nature of our future foreign
oil reserves. If the European countries capitulate,
which they will, then there is no telling where Arab
demands will end. If people assume that the Arabs
will not use their oil weapon again for different
demands, they are greatly mistaken. The United
States cannot afford to be at the beck-and-call of
third-rate nations whose only claim to recognition is
the vagaries of geography. America has reached the
end of an era in which energy was cheap and the
standard of living was high.
Have the American people and their government
begun to plan for the future, now that we realize
that our supplies of oil are decreasing? In this case
the future is not one winter or one year the future
is the coming decade. Has the government
committed itself to mass transit? Has the
government begun to investigate new sources of
power besides oil? Has the government cut down on
its reliance upon the automobile and slowed its road
building program? It seems as if the government does
not realize the enormity of the situation, and
continues to' propose but hot implement stopgap
measures which sound severe, yet only perpetuate
file ideology that created this crisis.

Would it insure future economic growth if the
government began to ration fuel, lower speed limits,
and utilize other necessary but essentially short
range concepts. What the government has to do is
lead the American people into the realization that air
conditioners are a luxury that utilize energy which
could be used for a more essential purpose. The
government must commit itself to mass transit in
order to provide a viable alternative to the
now-obsolete automobile. As the situation now
stands, people drive to places only because the mass
transit and inter-urban rail systems are so poor.
These new systems would use far less energy and
move people far more efficiently than the
automobile. If the government does not provide for
a nationwide system of mass transit, the cost of
automobile ownership will make the car a plaything
for the upper classes without providing any
alternative to the poor and middle-income groups.

As of this writing, there has been no action to
conserve or reduce the amount of gas used by this
country. The speed limits are still the same, gas has
not yet been rationed, people are still acting as if this
was only a sham some sort of governmental game.
Maybe in these turbulent times Americans have
learned to adjust to crisis situations without getting
overly excited. Yet America has never really suffered
materially, and when the squeeze hits the
complacent middle class, there will be hell to pay.

It is very difficult for this columnist to
understand that the way of life that 1 have grown
accustomed to will soon be a thing of the past. The
car, once such a focal point in teenage life (see
American Grafitti) will be replaced by other status
symbols. If gas costs a dollar a gallon rationed or
not, there will be very little cruising or just trucking.
I guess it’s hard to envision the end of a lifestyle
most people probably just don’t want to think about
it. Unfortunately, the age of cheap fuel is over and
like good economic children, we will have to adjust
accordingly. After all, there isn’t much choice.

‘

meeting
was
Last ' Tuesday’s assembly
highlighted by a crucial vote on the approval of Cliff
Palefsky, Student Rights coordinator, as one of the
members of the Personnel and Appointments
Committee. The vote (19-17) in favor of Mr.
Palefsky left serious doubts in the minds of
Assembly members as to what should be the
function of the student assembly with respect to the
Executive Committee.
The functions of the' Executive Committee have
been well defined in the constitution, “To supervise
the execution of legislation .
However it appears
as if the sentence should read, “To subvert the
execution of legislation.”
The most important arguments against Mr.
Palefsky sitting on the Personnel and Appointments
Committee focussed on the Student Assembly’s
desifp- to become a responsible and credible
organization. The only way this can be done is to
alloy? assemblymen to participate in the functioning
of
government by allowing them to get
involved in the decision-making processes. The
education and. experience that can be obtained by
the above cannot be realized with having Executive
Committee members who are already extremely
qualified, experienced, and have the duties of their
respective'.Offices to Tiilfill, taking a seat on a
standing committee that'should be reserved for an
rssvr
wweca
•'

.

Jon Dandes has called for an end to the
pettiness of the Student Assembly in their vindictive
attacks against the power of the Executive
Committee. It appears that Mr. Dandes and some of
the other members of his Executive Committee are
suffering from a severe form of disillusionment, i.e.,

a persecution complex. Evidence of their paranoia
can be seen by looking at their votes cast on crucial
issues that threaten their “Divine Rights.” The
Executive Committee will vote in solidarity for
themselves and the assembly just the opposite.
It has become all to obvious that the continuing
partisanship is extremely detrimental to the proper
functioning of student government. Jon Dandes and
the rest of the Executive Committee have forgotten
that they were elected to represent the needs and
desires of the student body and not to cater to their
own selfishness and immaturity.

The only solution to the problem is for the
Student Assembly to create an urgently needed
separation of powers by removing the Executive
Committee’s right to vote as student assemblymen.
Student government cannot function without a
balance of power. The Student Assembly has been
trying to make important strides in becoming a
responsible and credible organization. The time has
come to stop Jon Dandes from subverting our goal.

Why, they'd even go so far as to pick up ornamental

pretty pass, I would say. People don't celebrate
Halloween anymore. They kind of just tolerate it.
I think this has come about, to a large extent,
because of the early arrival of Christmas. Each year,
department stores and such have begun displaying
Yuletide wares earlier and earlier. A gigantic
conglomerate Holiday has sprung up consisting of
Christmas, New Year's Day, Thanksgiving, and
(oddly enough) Monday Night Football. Halloween
just doesn't fit the mood of this Megaholiday and so
it is out. And no one is expected to say Boo.

�appy sounds on
hammered dulcimer
A unique American band will be performing in the Union
Board coffeehouse this Saturday evening. The Fennig's All-Star
String Band combines piano, flute, fiddle, guitar, banjo and the
hammered dulcimer to create some of the best old-time country
music available. The hammered dulcimer predates the piano. It has
no real relationship to the mountain dulcimer that Jean Ritchie
plays. The instrument is presently experiencing a revival from folks
like Howie Mitchell, and via Howie, Bill Spence who plays with
Fennig's All-Stars.
The sound of the instrument is so fresh that each and every
time the music is heard, people seem compelled to stop and ask
about the instrument making all those bright, happy sounds. The
All-Stars were In Buffalo for the.Jpolk Festival last May and did a
workshop on country dances in thte Fillmore Room.
The band specializes in instruction of English country dancing,
a combination of contras, longways, circle and quadrilles. This
Saturday the area for dancing will be limited in the cafeteria,
however those folks wanting to organize some dancing will be
encouraged to do so. The Irish, Scottish, English and American
fiddle'tones the band plays are sure-fire smile-getters.
Bill Spence, in addition to being the band organizer, operates a
recording studio, builds his own hammered dulcimers and has
interests in media studies.
-The Fennig's band has recorded one album for the Spences'
own Front Hall Records. Each time the record has been played,
people ask; "Who is it? What is it?" and "Where does it come
from?"
All questions can be answered when you come to the first
floor cafeteria on Saturday at 9:00 to hear the Fennig's All-Star
String Band featuring Bill Spence. You can bring your mother to
the coffeehouse with no fear of having her assaulted by anything
except the sounds.
On Friday evening the coffeehouse tries something unique by
presenting nine area musicians. There are few places in Buffalo for
a gal or fella to show their stuff. Well, that chance is here. The
range of talent is wide, including traditional songs and
contemporary writers. Tickets for Friday and Saturday night are
available at Norton ticket office.

Once on stage Muddy Waters lets loose with a
mellow barrage of classical bluze feelin'. Telling all
those sordid tales of desertion, mean women and

supreme master at letting his voice worm it's way

can set 'em and let ’em low, low down. No matter
how he tells it, all you have to do is lay back, shut

Hound Dog's a thin, gaunt looking man who
speaks with a rare tenderness when he slashes away
at his tremelo geetar sounds. He is reminiscent of a
real funky Duanne Eddy, the absolute master at
twang guitar. The essential thing to note about
Hound Dog, and even Muddy's band, is their
unconscious tribute to blues great Freddy King.

'Eagles'

Nazies, spies and love
in enjoyable war film
So you don't like war movies. That won't stop you from enjoying
Eagles Over London a World War II movie in which espionage far
outweighs the battle sequences.
The film is about a group of Nazi spies who infiltrate England in
order to destroy that nation's radar stations. They enter the country
disguised as part of the British Expeditionary Force during the famous
1940 Dunkirk evacuation. Their operation is geared to the Day of the
Eagle, the day when the air'force will be wiped from the skies, thus
leaving the British Isles defenseless to a Nazi invasion.
Beyond the excitement of the plot, the film makes strong
statements about the organization of war. The Armed Forces are
depicted as a mammoth bureaucracy which can only be surmounted by
having friends in the right places. For example, the lead character has
trouble rousing the Army's attention to the Nazis' scheme once he
discovers it.
Dangerously leaky

The audience learns about military security leaks and the harboring
of information that could prove detrimental to England's allies. An
English officer protects a Nazi spy and gives her British military
strategy.because she consistently goes to bed with him.
The film exposes the insignificance of individual lives in a war
situation. Director Castellani shows this by depicting various airmen's
deaths through the repetition of the same scene. F urthermore, German
spies are taught that their lives are minuscule in realtion to the cause as
a whole. In one scene, a Nazi agent kills his lover while kissing her
because her identity has been discovered, making her a threat to her
comrades. The loss of individual lives in battle is unimportant if the
struggle is ultimately won.
Italian "Eagles"
Eaglet Over London is an Italian production made for an American
market. It stars Frederick Stafford and Van Johnson. Both are miscast
as are a majority of the other players. Stafford has an Italian accent
even though he plays an English captain (Paul Stevens) of Hungarian
descent. This comes across as effectively as Fernando Lamas playing
the part of an All-American boy.
Van Johnson is not convincing as an Englishman either. The Nazis
have English accents, causing one to wonder why they weren't cast in
the British roles. This dialect mix-up make the movie auditorily
ludicrous.
The film'* special effects are poorly done. In many instances, one
can practically see the model glue on the "fighter planes." An aerial
view of a city under bombardment also looks phony. It appears as a
map that is illuminated with red light and puff* of red smoke whenever

Somewhere among the cobwebs lies an old

As for Hawkeye and Trapper John, their work
takes them from South Korea to Tokyo (to perform
surgery on a general) to the football fields
(M*A*S*H vs. a U.S. Army division). Gould and
Sutherland are constantly challenging strict Army
rules, which the commanding officer disregards as
often as they do. They come to surgery straight from
the golf course, they argue (and win) with their
dumb colonel and they blatantly drink champagne
on the base.

situation in which such refinements as plot,
characterization, and all of the other elements of a
filmmaker's craft may be seen as relatively superfluous
aspects of a venture begun purely to rake in the dollars,
rarely results in the type of atmosphere conducive to
much artistic creation. But then, maybe artistic
creation is not the most important thing here either.
Whatever it is, the film works beautifully, almost
without exception.
The Way We Were tells of the relationship that
develops between two strikingly mismatched graduates
of the college Class of '37, following them from a
chance meeting at a New York City bar during World
War II through another meeting in the same city some
twenty years later, Katie Huboski (or something like

The whole business has been worked through with
style and intelligence, which prevents it from becoming
an overwhelmingly sentimental ode to lost innocence
(theirs, ours, and the age's). Robert Bedford plays a
noncommittal character non-committally; he does not
really act here at all, but rather drifts along in a
casually amiable way. Barbra Streisand repeats, for
what will be far from the last time, her stereotype of
the loud, pushy Jew from Brooklyn. Her role is refined
a bit more each time, but can't she play anything else?
However, the film needs these apparent drawbacks

Half-baked cool
It has all been done before. Unfortunately, it
has all been done better before. Kirk Douglas, the
actor, was great, but not Kirk Douglas, the director.
He attempted a camp and slapstick comedy. There
was one big problem: it wasn't funny. The cool was
overdone, the attitudes unrealistic, and the acting
half-baked. The sound effects during the fight scenes
resembled the noises my grandmother emits from
the bathroom. Albert Mace was responsible for the
screenplay. He will be lucky if he gets off with ten
years and a small fine.
Consistently funny and well-timed, the parrot
stole the show. Never did he say: "Polly want a
cracker." The mule appeared when he was needed
and the ram had the key move of the film. Kirk
Douglas is great, but not worth seeing in this film
unless you really love him.

Good Neighbors and Other Strangers Edgar Pangborn
Collier Books Paperback 1973 $150 also in hardcover

'

Edgar Pangborn won the International Fantasy

Award for his 1955 novel A Mirror for Observers and
was a Hugo nominee ten years later with his adventure
piece entitled Davy. Obviously the man has been
getting some attention, and many critics and authors
have commented upon his works. Sam Moskowitz,
author of several tours into the history of science
fiction and well noted for his patience, claimed
Pangborn wrote in a "pedestrian pace" as "a leisurely
Olaf Stapeldon with limited ambition." These
comments appeared in Seekers of Tomorrow, one of
Sam's productions, and are equivalent to ferocious
attacks. If such opinions do exist there is a reason, and
it ties in Pangborn's style.
Science fiction is not typically examined as a
possible stylistic achievement since most of its major
contributions are notoriously preoccupied with plot
and have characters who are merely manuevered in to
fill the requirements of that plot. There are exceptions,
such as the satirical havoc of George Alec Effinger,
James Tiptree's inability to write sentences that
correspond grammatically to what he is saying, or the
wonderful poetry of Paul Anderson. However, the
majority of science fiction appears overly scientific.
Science fiction does recognize its tendency, to fall
easily into categorical files, the giant pigeon-holes in
the brains of most people. Two categories are usually
acknowledged: hard, or scientific fiction; and soft
fiction, which tends to spend more time on human
aspects. Fantasy is a whole different thing and is
exemplified by the "sword-and-sorcery" novel.
Originally the word "fantasy" applied to all soft
science fiction, and that is why Edgar Pangborn was
first considered a fantasist. With the change in meaning,
however, a few know exactly what type of writer he is.
Good Neighbors and Other Strangers is a collection
of ten short stories which are stylistically similar but
which prey upon diffent elements in life, death, and
anything before, during, or after the two. "Good
Neighbors" is the first story involving the escape of a
pet from an alien craft and the reactions of the United
States to its harmless but tearful wanderings. The pet is
large enought to cover Times Square, Herald Square,
and the New York garment district.
Running like a Japanese film with an intellectual
snicker barely audible in the background, the story is
told with the aura of ignorance and understatement
characteristic of all the authpr's work. This ignorance is

while there is a little breeze and some small shaft of
light falls on the paper, but quickly fades away. If one
musses the story's meaning, it becomes very difficult to
go back and find it, for the door is often locked.

to other authors because it-is difficult to say anything
original about him. This'book itself is not original The
stories and ideas are Pangborn's creations, yet they are
not new. Good Neighbors and Other Strangers contains
the story with which he first gained notice when it
appeared in the June 1951 issue of Galaxy.
The story is titled “Angel's Egg", dealing literally
with the title's subject. Here we have an early example
of the creature later elaborated by Robert Silverberg in
Nightwings. Pangborn's handling is delicate to the
extreme, rendering it inhuman.

producing an emotional response, it is unconvincing.

Even while reparing the pedal, the attendant does not
notice the oddity of the occupants of the pickup for he

them. It is a statement on materialism as well as on
man's attention to the gods and greater forces, depicted
in a manner that outdoes John Barth.
If anyone is keeping count, that makes it nine
stories down and one to go. Of the nine, most are
decidedly below par and often worthless. The last
story, however, is different. Nowhere is "science

Totally entertaining, 'The Ponsonby Case" is the
tale of a man forced out of his apartment by a door

Thera is good science fiction being produced, but
none will flow from Pangborn. One wonders if

Surburbia by Bill Owen* (Straight Arrow Books, 1973, $5.95)
This book is about my friends and the world I live in."

This is the opening statement by Bill Owens in his book entitled
Suburiba. It is a book about people, about us, the world we have
created around us, our extensions. It exposes and verifies what we
already know. Suburbia is more than a photographic reflection, for the
people that were recorded wrote about themselves.
This adds another dimension to the interpretation of the image and
the total statement. You could say that the book is the total image,
which would make it the entire statement. We learn how the people
understand themselves in their created environment. One image has a
couple sitting in their garage with their car, boat, two motorcycles, and
a transistor radio. Accompanying the photograph are the words, "We

One of the most thought-provoking images is a three- or
four-year-old boy on a plastic three-wheeler cycle, cowboy boots and a
toy rifle perched on his hip. Accompanying this image are words by his
parents, "I don't feel that Richie playing with guns wilt have a negative
effect on his personality (he already wants to be a policeman). His
childhood gun-playing won't make him into a cop shooter. By playing
with guns he learns to socialize with other children. I find the neighbors
who are offened by Richie's gun, either the father hunts or their kids
are the first to take Richie's gun away and go off and play with it."

enjoy having these things."

Hopefully these two extractions will give you a general feeling of
what the book is about. It is important after experiencing the book to

realize that Owens is penetrating beyond just a re-representation of
what he saw and photographed. He is dealing with the morals and
values of the people who live “out there." Throughout the flow of
images and words (which create their own images), there is a feeling of
individuality and
independence,
yet at the same time an
interdependence upon each other.
We are exposed to a Fourth of July block party, a Tupperware
party, fund-raising party, and social gatherings. This adds up to a
reassociation with the functions of city life. Another image depicts a

couple sitting in front of a cut-out painting and saying this about
themselves: "I find a sense of freedom in the suburbs. . You assume the
mask of suburbia for outward appearance and yet no one really knows
what you really do." This space is your and yours alone
strech out
your arms and breathe the fresh air. Is this the dream of the Suburfoian
—

Dweller?

In short. Bill Owens gives us a directed view of the American
Dream, as acted out by those fantastic people in Suburbia.
The bookSuburbia can be seen as a symbol of a trend in the
photographic medium: to photograph what is "out there" and expose
it through the book form. What we see is Bill Owens' suburbia, what he
saw and how he interpreted it. The images were edited, put into a
sequence, and the words were taken out of context and presented in
relationship to an image. We are left with one man's understanding of
an experience. This must be kept in mind, for when viewing a body of
work you are seeing themaker's experience and at the same time you
are experiencing it through your own frame of reference.
The eye sees, the mind records and interprets, and the camera
records light. A well-known camera distributor stated in one of its ads,
"How you express yourself depends upon your camera." How do you
express yourself, how do you relate what you feel or perceive in your
inner self to those around you? Man has striven to express himself from
the early depths of time. A cave painter put color on his hand and left
his mark / AM. We look at this now and know that he was. He had
expressed himself.
During the I850's, the masses were recording themselves and
making an attempt to express their inner drives. One of these outlets
was the photographic process. Also during this period, the
"cate-de-visite" (a photograph mounted on a 4-by-2’/2-inch card and left
as a calling card) became popular. As our cave painter left his mark, so
would a caller leave his. In the 1860's the "cate-do-visites" were put
into fancy bound albums, the forerunners of the present-day photo
album.
Throughout the last 130 years, image-makers have been expressing
themselves. Their tools (cameras, etc.) have been what the technology
and the image-maker's need at the time required of them
The early photographers' difficulties were, immense compared to
those of their contemporary counterparts. Tim O'Sullivan travelled the
Colorado River in 1871 with the Wheeler Expedition. He made 300
negatives on an 11-by-14 inch view camera and processed them on
location. Compare that to your handy-dandy 35 mm camera.
The important question is whether the photographer is able to
materialize what he sees and feels, his thought and ideas. Thoughts are
not linear, they are forms. A visual image may be closer to the actual
thought than a linear description of it. Think of the word car, now
think of a cat
do you sense a difference? A camera is only a tool
which limits or expands the boundaries of your work. Your ability to
express yourself depends not on your tools but upon your ability to
recognize, decode, and understand what you see. It is not the camera
that dictates what you express; it is yourself.

On the Road Traffic (Island)
j
I learned to play basketball listening to Stevie
Windwood on records. He's the greatest all-around
player: I wanted to shoot jump shots like his lead
guitar; his ability to rebound on organ was wildly
exciting (Hendrix knew it); he passed for so many
assists on bass; and backed it all up with a tight
defence on his arrangements and songs. And best of
all, he was always going to be young.
Stevie was only sixteen when he made it to the
pros on the Spencer Davis team. From the beginning
it was clear he owed a debt to Ray Charles and Jim
"Bad News" barnes, and he was fortunate to come
up with Davis, who slowly brought him along to help
him keep his head together, the way LA guarded
Jerry West when he first came to the NBA. The quiet
life quickly ended for Stevie when "Gimme Some
Loving'" led the league in 1966, before the
powerhouse Beatles regained a solid grip on first
place.

What team do you think the little kids will
remember Wilt Chamberlain playing on? The
Warriors? or perhaps the 76er$, maybe the Lakers?
Even San Diego??? Well, what I'll remember are the
two great championship clubs—the '67 76ers and the
'72 Lakers. On the first he handed out assists as
smooth as Stanley Clarke, on the second he earily
beat out Keith Erickson for the rebounding title.
Now how about Winwood—what team will he
represent in the Hall of Fame? Spencer Davis?
Traffic? Blind Faith? I'm sure the average cop on the
beat would say Traffic, with perhaps a few nods for
Blind Faith, leftover memories of that super team
(just keep in mind that the year Chamberlain, Baylor
and West played together they didn't win at all).
Yeah, T raff ic all the way.
Stevie formed Traffic in an expansion draft, and
was able to sign his first two draft choices: Jim
Capaldi, a real heavy, and Luke Jackson, whose size
effectively filled up the middle on defense and
drums; and Chris Wood, who everyone thought

�*

"R*
But he wm

really a disappointment. Chris has
managed to stay with the team, but doesn't get so
much playing time these days. Wally Jones pulled
the same shit on Philadelphia, until everyone realized

that he only got hot when the team was up by thirty
points, or when the record was almost over and hecould chip in on the finales.
When Traffic dissolved and Stevie joined Blind
Faith, he knew his chance had some. He was finally
playing with the big boys on the block, and his
enthusiastic singing and playing were sparkling.
Unfortunately, after, a successful exhibition season, a
thief broke into their lacker room and stole the only
copy of the official game plan. Disappointed and
reluctant to start it all over again, the group broke
up. Yet even without having played a regular season
concert, their golden record in pre-season play will
make them unforgettable.
Stevie went into a short retirement and kept in
shape by playing ifl the local schoolyards. He
returned to re-form Traffic, full of new ideas and a
larger team concept. He pulled a Branch Rickey
when he signed Rebop as Jackie Robinson. Just
recently he traded for David Hood on bass and
Roger 'Mawkins oti drums. Roger's rk»t a Billy
Cobham or a Julius Irving, but he is a good driver.

album have been heard before. Stevie dug playing
them and just forgot that they're not new. They
were racordrd on a barnstorming tour of Germany,
and I even heard that the Harlem Globetrotters
played a preliminary game before Xrafftcrbame on,
and groups like Sha Na Na could sure pick up some

at mid-court. The first' quarter was played very
slowly (lethargic is how Marv Albert reviewed it) in
low spark, and it looked like it would be a long
evening. When the song ended and nobody
appluaded, Stevies decided to concentrate on offense
and picked up his guitar. The fans got excited when
he hit a few jump shots and Hawkins set some fine
picks on drums. The big play came when Stevie took
a lead pass from Wood and dribbled the whole length
of the court, switching hands and time and hanging
in mid-air before he made a spinning dunk shot as

the first'side ended. Stevie looked up and saw that
most of the team had picked up his rhythm and
followed him all the way down court, and frombis

smile you knew that the second half would follow.
Apparently the jump ball to start the second
half was premature, Stevie was alone on the floor
practicing his vocalchords while the rest of the team
got high in the locker room. Stbvie was singing
uninspired, but a series of give-and-goVfrottv Beckett
warmed him up and his guitar shots were hitting
from everywhere. Even Chris Wood Stayed out of
foul trouble as Stevie gave the fans a real show.
Everyone's 1 drugs hit them as the fourth quarter
started and there were plenty of excellent plays.
Stevie felt so secure with the lead that he let- some of
the bench warmers get in and the game became
much closer than expected. Capatdi hasn't been the
same since he tore his achilles tendon, like Dick
Barnett, and can't play drums anymore. He tried to
carry the team to the final buzzer and very nearly
lost the ball and kept calling on the rest of the team
for help, while Stevie consistently hit from the
outside. There was a slight anti-climax as many
time-outs were called in the last two minutes
without very much action, but the slowdown barely
detracted from the generally fluid movement of the
game.

This is a good chance to hear Traffic at their
current best. They've been around for a while and by
the end of the season may be tired out. They
certainly don't have the explosive offensp of the
Celtics or the Mahavishnus, but Winwood is exciting

Sufficiently Breathlessly Captain Beyond (Capricorn)
Like Tennyson,, the rock group Captain Beyond
but $ays it beautifully. The
has nothing (o say
album is excellently reopided and mixed down. A
pri?e should go to Joe Petagano and Carl Ramsey,
who were responsible for the cower illustrations.
They're able to steal my attention long after the
music has lost its sway.
"It's not that the musicians are technically
impoverished", cried Egbert, for with Lee Dorman
(former bass player with Iron Butterfly) at the helm,
thgy show admirable technical ability. Their
improvisations, though with the exception of the
pianist, go nowhere.
The Beyond sound is strongly rhythm-oriented,
with bass and guitar often used to accentuate the
beat. Dorman, while responsible for all the song
writing, gets by with as little lyrically as possible.
The form of the pieces are linear in conception,
given over to individual improvisation, (the epitome
of this style in the pop music field being Cream). It's
too bad that with the aforementioned exception of
Reese Wynan's piano, no one is able to use that time
,
meaningfully.
r
In keeping with past tradition, lets now take a
melodic stroll down side 2.
"Starglow Energy" opens the side in lockjaw
common time (there being
little rhythmic
-the
irregularity throughout
Ip) together with an
absolutely callous disregard for dynamic shading,
why shouldn't I be bored?
"Distant Sun" opens with a bass ostinoto, again
4/4
time. This track is bit more inventive, with a
in
piano transition that was .’.. well, it was funky. Yes,
fans, glorified funk.
Guile Garcia, on tombalis, shines throught the
vinyl, with this track in particular illuminating his
gift. The lyrics which were audible struck me as
blase. At least I can't fault them for what I feel to be
the two most common pitfalls of pop lyricists
self-indulgence and pretentiousness. The lead singer
is seemingly in the twilight of a mediocre career.
"Voyages of the Past Travelers," besides' being the
lp‘s most intriguing number is also- the shortest at
1-30. The spoken introduction is modulated to art
extremely low frequency, giving it a suitable eerie
quality ‘(sounds like Alfred Hitchcock with a bad
head cold). The organ, continuously weaving in and
out, heightens the mood.
Alas, though I couldn’t follow any logical
progression in the piece, nor (my debt acknowledged
to John Cage) any illogical progression.
The best track, "Everything a Circle," is saved
till last. It's intriguing that the title also mirrors in a
broad sense, the Moslem concept of life.
Surprised they're finally using both dynamics
and rhythm to good effect. Additionally, the song is
graced with a memorable melody to enhance it.
The vocal effect is intriguing, with the backing
vocals spliced in such a way as to sound fractionally
behind the initial vocal track. It's a sad case of too
little talent that doesn't justify the very grimy little
hands.

Oil cutback effects
Joseph C. Swidler,
ALBANY, N.Y. (UPJ)
chairman of the state Public Service Commission, has
disputed federal claims that Arab oil cutbacks could
result in only a six per cent reduction in U.S.
supplies, saying the East Coast would be hard hit and
that New York City oil supplies might be cut in half.
In a letter to John A. Love, federal director of
energy policy, released Tuesday, Swidler took issue
with the reports, saying ‘The true impact of the
Arab oil embargo is double this figure.”
Swidler appealed for the national imposition of
“extended daylight saving time and reduced highway
speed limits,” saying the programs “will not prove
sufficient to offset the existing and potential
interruptions of oil from Arab states, but without
them the shortages will be much worse.”

People ask what has happened to the "flower-power"
generation and the love and peace movement that began
with San Francisco's Haight-Ashbury and the Beatles and
spread across America capturing the hearts and minds of
the young people of this country. "RAINBOW BRIDGE” is
a movie made to answer just those questions; a film that
details the changes that have been going down in the youth
culture often unnoticed by the mass media and general
public. It is a film made from within the culture by people
who have lived the changes that have taken place, but it

Bulls versus Falcons
in hockey rink tonight
by Dave Gcringcr
Sports Editor

The hockey Bulls will face
major tests tonight and tomorrow
as they confront possibly their
toughest opponent this season.
Powerful Bowling Green, victors
over Guelph 11-0 and 12-0 last
weekend, will invade Holiday
Twin Rinks for a two-game set.
“It’s hard to figure out an

angle,” said cautious Falcon coach
Ron Mason. “We played two
perfect games last weekend, and it
looks like we can score goals. Now
we’re going to see if we can do it
against a little better competition.
We haven’t had any problems yet,
but I don’t think that Guelph was
as good as they could have been.
That’s probably one of the
reasons for the large score,”
Mason added.

Age twenty six The Spectrum Friday, 9 November 1973
.

.

Mason admitted that all of the
Bowling Green forwards showed
well against Guelph. “Our scoring
was pretty much spread out,”
reported Mason. ‘Two of our
lines looked particularly good. We
had John Stewart centering for
Rich Magai and Bruce
Woodhouse, and Woodhouse got a
hat trick the first night and Nagai
the second night. (Bob) Dobek’s
line also looked good. Dobck got
five goals in two games.”
Falcon defense shows ability
Mason was satisfied with the
play of the Falcon defense,
previously thought to be a trouble
spot in the Bowling Green
pre-season outlook. “Our defense
showed good ability, and 1 hope
that it is an indication of things to

come,’* said Mason. “But you’re

not going to play shutout hockey
all season. Our goalies all showed
well, though. I have two freshman
goalies (A1 Sarachman and Mike
Liut) and Don Boyd is our
returning letterman. Ill definitely
use two goalies in the weekend
series, but I don’t know yet which

two I’ll bring. I’m impressed with
all of them,” affirmed Mason.
The Bulls will nominate John
Moore, who stopped thirteen of
fourteen shots in the first period
at Kent State last Friday, to stem
the Falcon attack. Moore will be
facing a Bowling Green squad
which bested Ohio State 8-1 in
the Central Collegiate Association
playoffs last season. Ohio State
conquered Buffalo 9-4 and 11-3
last year.

Ruckelshaus

Not sorry for his actions
Editor’s note: The following are excerpts from an
exclusive interview and the press conference remarks
of William Ruckelshaus.

by Howie Kurtz
Editor-in-Chief
“No, I don’t regret my decision. The result of
Elliot Richardson and I resigning was a massive
public outpouring that in effect caused President
Nixon to release the tapes in his possession.”
With those words, William Ruckelshaus
explained why he was not sorry for refusing to fire
Special Prosecutor Archibald Cox and quitting as
assistant Attorney General even though the President
agreed to surrender the tapes 48 hours later. “What 1
was asked was fundamentally wrong and 1 refused to
do it,” he said. “Never in Congressional memory
except perhaps for Cambodia
has the public
poured so many telegrams, letters and pleas into
Washington as after Archie Cox was fired,” said Mr.
Ruckelshaus. “Clearly, the President’s decision to
release the tapes was literally forced by public
opinion.”
The events following his resignation have
convinced Mr. Ruckelahaus that “when public
outrage is expressed vociferously
and
effectively,” results
immediately follow. “If the
people speak loudly enough and
with enough clarity, they can
move the government,” he said.
Asked whether the “tapes
compromise” was a pretext to fire
Mr. Cox for pursuing his
investigation too vigorously, the
former assistant Attorney General
said: “We can speculate endlessly
about the President’s motives. I
suspect that like most human
actions, his motives were mixed.”
The President wanted to wrap up
the tapes issue, Mr. Ruckelshaus
said, “and if in the process Cox
was fired, it wouldn’t displease
him

“If people speak loudly
enough, with enough clarity and
conviction, they can move any
branch of government,” said
William Ruckelshaus Monday
afternoon in a speech to the over
1000 University students who
surrounded on the front steps of
Norton Hall. Throughout his
speech, the recently-fired assistant
Attorney General stressed his
faith in -the “strength and wisdom
of the American people” and their
ability to cause governmental
policy changes.
The massive reaction of the
people to the firing of Special
Prosecutor Archibald Cox and the
subsequent resignations of
General Elliot
Attorney
Richardson and himself “also
gives us great confidence that the
system does respond,” Mr.
Ruckelshaus said.
Clarifying the reasons for his
departure from the Department of
Justice two weeks ago, he
explained that Mr. Richardson
had agreed when confirmed by
the Senate last spring to appoint a
special prosecutor who would: 1)
have the right to oppose any
Presidential claims of “executive
privilege;”
2) receive no
interference from the Attorney
General; and 3) be fired only for
“gross improprieties.”
Light, not heat
When President Nixon asked
Mr. Ruckelshaus to fire Mr. Cox,
Mr. Ruckelshaus simultaneously
resigned and was fired. “I would
do the same again, because I
believe the committment entered
into by the Attorney General was
binding not only on him but on
me as his successor."
Mr. Ruckelshaus began his
speech with a disclaimer that he

would hot take any position
concerning Mr. Nixon’s possible
resignation or impeachment, due
to his personal bias from his
recent
dispute with the
Administration. “I don’t want to
add heat” to the present crisis by
talcing a personal stand,” he said,
“but I would rather add light” by
speaking more analytically on the
causes of Watergate.

tapes the White House now says are missing, Mr.
Ruckelshaus said: “If they were missing, it should
have been revealed the minute it was known.
Because the announcement was so belated, it was
almost beyond belief, and this only fuels public
mistrust of the President and the White House.*’ If
they were not missing, he doesn’t know what had
happened to them: “Maybe put through the paper
shredder,” he joked.
The President’s credibility has been severely
damaged in recent weeks, the former assistant
Attorney General believes, and can only be regained
if Mr. Nixon takes certain actions. First, he should
appoint “a truly independent prosecutor,
independent of the executive branch if necessary.”
Second, Mr. Ruckelshaus recommended “full
disclosure by the White House of every single
document regarding any of the investigations. This is
the only chance for regaining credibility.”

Demand replacement
If Mr. Nixon acts to block the new Special
Prosecutor from getting all the evidence, “the people
will not accept it they will demand from Congress
that the President be replaced.” Mr. Ruckelchaus
added he did not think the groundswell for

impeachment until now was strong enough to force
Congress to act.
There was “no pressure” on former Attorney
General Elliot Richardson to recommend leniency in
the case of former Vice President Spiro Agnew, Mr.
Ruckelshaus explained. “Mr. Richardson felt it was
in the public interest for the Vice President to resign.
When the investigation was peaking, all the

commentaries and editorials
whether they though Agnew was innocent or being
persecuted, they all agreed let’s bring it to a head
and get it over with.” Mr. Richardson noted that
“with a weakened President, it was essential to have
a Vice President capable of taking over. The specter
of a Vice President sitting trial and being next in
line, or.even inaugurated for the Presidency, made it
in the overriding public interest that the charges
against Agnew be resolved quickly,” Mr.

Ruckelshaus continued.
Acknowledging a “difference of opinion” within
the Justice Department over whether or not Mr.
Agnew should have gone to jail, he explained: “The
other argument, of course, was the people would get
the impression that if you rose to the Vice
Presidency, you were immune from prosecution. If
we hadn’t made the deal, the Vice President would
not have resigned, and would have continued his
campaign to discredit the Justice Department. Mr.
Richardson’s sole consideration in making that
difficult decision was: What was in the public
interest? As long as my superior is asking himself
that question, I’ll support his tough decision, even if
we don’t agree.”
Some people undoubtedly regard the Agnew
deal as an example of privileged justice, Mr.
Ruckelshaus conceded, while others understand the
reasons behind the agreement. “One thing people arc
overlooking is the real punishment visited on the
Vice President. By pleading nolo contendrc to a
felony charge, he went from one heartbeat away
from the Presidency to a private citizen who resigned
the Vice Presidency in utter disgrace,” he said.
Asked if the Justice Department’s evidence against
Mr. Agnew would not have sent most men to jail,
Mr. Ruckelshaus said: “Yes, it would have.” Total
disclosure of the case against Agnew was part of the
deal, for “people would have said it’s a frame-up, he
was drummed out of office, unless we laid before the
American people all the evidence we had against
Agnew.”

Improper action
Mr. Ruckelshaus said he “didn’t know” whether
Mr. Nixon’s offer of the FBI directorship to Judge
W. Matthew Byrne while the Pentagon Papers trial
was going on was an attempt to influence that trial,
but said; “It was clearly improper. Especially in such
a visible and arguably political trial, no approach
should have been made for any federal job while the
trial was continuing.” He doesn’t think his old office
has been demoralized as a result of the recent
shake-up because “the Department of Justice is
greater than any one member.”
Acknowledging that the Justice Department has
been gradually “politicized” for decades, the former
assistant Attorney General said; “Mr. Richardson
attempted to remove the politics from Justice, but
you can never remove the politics completely, nor
should you.” An elected President should impose
“the will of the people” on the Justice Department,
he explained: “For instance, the President should be
able to tell Justice. I want more efforts into the area
of organized crime.”

long run, “institutions must prove themselves, not
by rhetoric but by performance,” he said.

Talked through Haig
Explaining how his resignation came about, Mr.
Ruckelshaus said Mr. Richardson had returned to
their office after resigning when the phone rang.
Presidential assistant Alexander Haig then told
Ruckelshaus to fire Cox: “Your
Commander-in-Chief is giving you an order.”
Ruckelshaus refused and was fired as he was drawing
up his letter of resignation. But the scenario
describes something fundamentally wrong with Mr.
Nixon’s handling of the matter, Mr. Ruckelshaus

explained:
“He wouldn’t sit down and discuss the matter

with his own Attorney General. He could’ve said, T
want to fire this guy Cox, what do you think?’
Instead, he didn’t talk to Richardson until 3:30

Harriman

by Linda Moskowhz
Spectrum Staff Writer
At one time, Room 67 S was just another
classroom in the basement of Harriman Hall. But last
November, some of the people at the Student
Counseling Center decided to transform it into a
much warmer place, where students, faculty or even
campus visitors could share their feelings with
others. Dr. Dorothy Adema, who supervises the
activities of 67 S, believes “this is a place where it is
okay to be yourself.”
Unlike the regular Harriman counseling service,
no appointments, commitments, or identification are
necessary in Room 67 S. These are some of the
reasons the new service was created, to cut down on
the formality associated with visiting a counselor.
There is also no waiting time involved here; room 67
S operates on a walk-in basis. A diverse group of
individuals staff the room; from a freshman in
engineering to a full professor in English.
The room serves mainly as a drop-in center for
the campus, and it is not necessary for a person to
feel “deep-rooted anxiety” or have a specific
problem in mind when they come. Dr. Adema said
many people who utilize the servjce are “simply
dealing with uncomfortable feelings.” “People may
just feel lonely, or be upset about a letter they got
recently, or may be uptight about grades and studies.
We deal with everything. Even good feelings people
may wish to share,” she added.
Comfortable environment
“I guess 1 believe anxiety is a part of growth,”
Dr. Adema continued, “but there are times when
anxiety gets so heavy that people can’t function and
there are times when they need to talk to somebody,
and we are here for those times.”

First anniversary
The staff, who are all volunteers, undergo little
special training before they begin working in the
room. Instead, staff meetings are held every
Tuesday. At this time, the staff members work with
each other as a group, and as Dr. Adema states “we
learn experientially how to relate to other people.
We never shut the door,” she continued, “and
anyone can come and go as they please. We train by
doing.”
This month marks the first anniversary of the
project, and during this time, almost 430 people
have taken advantage of the services offered.
Presently, the main concern of the staff is to involve
more people. Dr. Adema believes the staff is utilizing
the room to their own advantage, but she said: “We
feel selfish not sharing the room with more people,
and the room is here for everyone.”
Room 67 S holds the same hours as the

expand the hours of the room to more nights and

Staff Writer

Proponents of Arab' and Israeli

sentiments locked horns Friday in
a debate over the Middle East war.
The two main panelists were S.C.

El-Behairy, professor of political

science

from

Buffalo

State

College, supporting the Arab
position and Robert Samberg, a
pro-Israeli professor of political
science from this University.
“My opinion is that the
conflicts of the past 25 years are
the
conflicts
of two
nationalisms,” said Dr. Samberg
about his position. ‘There has
been no peace in the Middle East
because the Arabs still live with
the dream they can destroy Israel.
I believe in the right of the state
of Israel to exist among eighteen
Islamic states as a Jewish state.”
“It is further my belief that the
opportunist Soviet Union has
fanned the fires of this conflict by
providing the Arab nations with
billions of dollars of weaponry,”
Dr. Samberg said. “Israel desires
peace, but the real problem is the
unwillingness of the Arab states to
give up their dream of destroying

Israel,” he said.

Dr. El-Behairy countered Dr.
Samberg’s statements, asserting:
“The Arabs have indicated they
would like to negotiate with the
Israelis, not destroy them.” It is
acceptable for Israel to have her
guns facing Egyptian cities, he
said, but if Israel is concerned
about their security, they should
also be aware of Arab insecurity.
Citing statistics used by former
Israeli Premier Ben-Gurion on
Jewish immigration and describing
the historical development of
Zionism, Dr. El-Behairy discussed
what he called the “roots” of the
problem. He concluded the three
main problems facing the Middle
were the problems of
“refugees,
borders and
Jerusalem.” “I hope we can look
ahead to the future, when there
a
viable
will
hopefully be

East

settlement, one not based on
insecurity and subjugation,” he
added.
‘The Jews have been in
Palestine since 1900 B.C., and
they have not driven the Arabs
out,” said Dr. Samberg. He
described the massive Arab
emigration to Israel in this

-

century.
The possibility of a bi-national
state for Israel and the credibility
of both Arab and Israeli rhetoric
dominated the open discussion
from the audience. Dr. Samberg

dismissed the possibility of a
bi-hational state, noting the U.N.
had rejected such a proposal in
1947.
“Israeli Arabs have fared a
helluva lot better than Jews in
Arab countries,” he said. Dr.
El-Behairy
allowed for the
possibility of a bi-nationalist state.
In addition, he personally does
not believe there is anti-Jewish
feeling among the Arabs.

Several speakers believed the
solution to
the Middle East
conflict
lies
in building
of
communism throughout the area.
Dr. Samberg attacked them for
blaming some of Israel’s present
woes on “that Marxist shithead”
David Ben-Gurion.
Arab statements calling for the
“genocide” of the Israeli people
were read by several people. Some
Arab students noted there were
similar Israeli sentiments. The
students read from a Newsweek
article which quoted a Israeli
radio broadcast as saying; “We
will crush your bones and turn
your days into night.”

When Arab students challenged
Samberg's solution to the
conflict, he countered it would be
in the best interests of the
Egyptians to build up their own
country and stop making war. Dr.
Dr.

El-Behairy

contended

that

negotiations on the key issues
were a must and the Palestinians
and Israelis must settle their own

problems.

BSUdenies pressure tactics
by Gary Cohn
Contributing Editor

Black Student Union (BSU) President Larry
Williams denied allegations Monday that BSU
pressured Rob Williams into resigning his post as
Student Association (SA) Minority Affairs
Coordinator.
However, the BSU President acknowledged that
Rob Williams had “failed to accomplish the goals
and expectations” that BSU held for the SA
Minority Affairs office. “Rob Williams tried to do
what he thought was best for the Black students,”
Larry Williams explained, but black disenchantment
mounted as “BSU saw no results” from the SA
coordinator.

Expectations
“Rob Williams made a number or committments
which he could not live up to,” the BSU President
added. He refused to say exactly what those
committments were.
However, one SA officer said Rob Williams had
promised BSU $13,000 for a series of special events
when he had only $7000 in his budget.
Rob Williams was not available for comment
According to the SA constitution, an election
must now be held to fill the vacant Minority Affairs
co-ordinator’s position. Larry Williams said BSU
hoped to support a candidate for the post.
He maintained BSU was eager to work with the

Student Association through the Minority Affairs
coordinator. The coordinator should serve as a liason
between BSD and SA, and should attempt to
improve communications between the black, Puerto
Rican and Indian student organizations, Larry
Williams explained.
Turning to the problems facing black students,
the BSU President charged the University with
attempting to “drive the Black students from the
University.” The University is “seeking to kill the
Equal Opportunity Program,” he claimed.
Genocide
“Elimination or reduction of EOP would be
financial genocide,” said Mr. Williams, “because a
majority of the black students attend the University
under the EOP program.”
However, Richard Siggelkow, vice-president for
Student Affairs, last week denied that the state was
phasing out the EOP program, explaining that the
State University of Buffalo awards the largest grants
of all the state schools. Sharply denouncing what he
termed the “stigma of BSU as a violent, racist
organization,” Mr. Williams was hopeful of working
with the SA to overcome the problems facing black
students. “We’re not a bunch of radical black
Panthers,” he said.
However, Mr. Williams warned that “BSU would
use any means available to prevent the black student
from being driven from the campus.”

Educating prisoners
It is common knowledge that this country's prisons are
far from "correctional" institutions. Instead, the high rate of
prison recidivism demonstrates that our prisons simply
incarcerate inmates in mind-numbing conditions, providing
little or no vocational or educational training. When the
embittered prisoner is released, he is no better equipped to
get a job than when he entered jail; the unending cycle which
led him to crime in the first place has not been broken.
The new college for prison inmates just announced by
the State University of New York is a welcome and
innovative step toward breaking the crime/prison/crime cycle
by enabling inmates to study for two-year degrees in liberal
arts and sciences, as well as providing vocational training.
SUNY should be applauded for this giant step which may at
last alter the destructive pattern of prisons like Attica and
return to prisons their original function: rehabilitation.

To the Editor

"If the people speak loudly enough and with enough
clarity, they can move the government."
William Ruckelshaus at Monday's speech

To all who are interested in the events
connected with our proposed merger; on October
30, 1973, in a meeting chaired by Professor Thomas
Kavanaugh, the graduates and undergrauduates of

Is this quote as outmoded as the ancient populist slogan,
"Power to the people"? Can plain, ordinary people actually
influence big, grey, faceless institutions? The pessimist can
certainly make a persuasive argument that common people
can't dent the power structure.
The power of the vote is becoming increasingly
meaningless as voters are asked to choose between identical,
mediocre candidates with pat, rhetorical answers to issues;
they are thus robbed of any real choice. No one trusts
politicians anymore; Watergate has fostered the cynical
apathy of "they all do it." Three years ago students were
leading nationwide protests against the Vietnam War; now,
when they should be in the forefront of the drive for
impeachment, today's college youth are busy studying,
smoking dope and listening to stereos.
The civil rights movement is dead. Social legislation is
continually shelved or castrated while the overkill defense
budget balloons by leaps and bounds. Government on every
level has grown into an impersonal bureaucracy that is totally
unresponsive to the needs of people; perhaps even
uncontrollable by those who supposedly pull the strings of
power. Surveillance has crept into our lives, eroded individual
civil liberties, generated paranoia. The law has increasingly
become a tool used by one class of society against another.
In the face of these disturbing and seemingly irreversible
trends, how can the individual citizen influence his own
destiny, let alone government?
But there are some encouraging signs. Groups of citizens,
even formerly politically powerless minorities, have learned
to organize, lobby, get their message across. For all the evils
Watergate has exposed, in most other countries it would have
been swept under the rug; here, in typical masochistic
fashion, we insist on extracting the truth. The
environmentalist lobby is no longer a political non entity.
Every federal project must now be accompanied by a
statement of its impact on the environment. John Gardner
and Common Cause lead the citizen's lobbies, Ralph Nader
and college PIRG's lead the consumer lobbies. Not much, but
a start.
The most effective lobby is "ordinary letters from
ordinary people," Jack Anderson believes. The most graphic

example by far was the avalanche of telegrams which
bombarded Capitol Hill after Messrs. Cox, Richardson and

Ruckelshaus were ousted. In less than 48 hours, this public
what months of subpoenas and
outcry achieved
investigations could not: they forced President Nixon to
surrender the tapes. If public outrage is sufficent, it may well
force his impeachment or resignation. Certainly, such
dramatic examples are more the exception than the rule, and
barring public outcries, government bureaucrats more or less
do what they want. But it is encouraging to know that the
sound of a million voices speaking with one voice can
occasionally move a mountain. Government bureaucracy is
like an uncooperative machine; it doesn't give a damn about
you, but if you kick it hard enough
So which version is correct? Are people more powerless
than ever against insensitive institutions, or is there some
hope after all? We're not sure. The pessimistic version
certainly seems stronger and more frightening. But we're
stuck in this society for the rest of our days. We can accept
things as they are. Or we can try to change it, and even if we
fail miserably, we can say we tried.

Bus complaints
To the Editor.
On Monday afternoon T voluntarily subjected
myself to visiting the Amherst campus. Upon arrival
at Diefendorf Annex, I consulted the posted bus
schedule and noted a bus would leave in five
minutes. After fifteen minutes and no bus, I awaited
a departure time of another ten minutes. That bus
was five minutes late in arriving.
The return trip was even better. Following a
barrage of sarcastic remarks from the bus driver to a
simple question by a fellow passenger, we left
nearly on schedule. Soon after reaching the
intersection of Maple and Millersport, we pulled off
the road to await a new driver, because ours was to
—

be relieved. When the driven had switched, there was
again a delay because the bus would not go into gear
Finally, we were herded into another bus and
were able to reach the Main Street campus in the
record time of thirty-five minutes.
I am told Mr. Dewey Bush is in charge of bus
scheduling and relations with the bus company I
wish to suggest that he re-evaluate his scheduling and
his choice of companies.
Meanwhile, Mr. Bush has been chosen as 1st
runner up in the “Able to Successfully Induce
Nervous Breakdowns in Students” category. But
then again, how can a man compete with SARA!

To the University Community:
The Tiffin Room has been the object of much
attention in the last week. Both an article in The
Spectrum, and a week of Happy Hour specials have
increased “attendance” at Happy Hour, and a
helluva lot of people have left the room rather
happy. However, there are some problems that
deserve consideration.
Waitresses in the Tiffin Room are paid
sub-minimum wage. As such, the difference is to be
made up in tips. Common practice, around the
world, dear students, indicates that a 15%
MINIMUM tip should be left following every order.
Bar orders are traditionally higher, approaching the
20% level. At the present time, people are leaving
tips averaging about 9%. Last Friday, a group of
people left a tip of four dollars, on a bill
approximately eighty dollars. This is approximately
5%, and is god-damned annoying.
You should take into consideration that the
waitresses who serve you are students, like
yourselves, and are working their way through
school. A 5% tip is not going to pay for tuition.

sometimes, (and in -the future hopefully more often)
good service is reflected in the size of the tip.
Also, folks, we really understand that you are

(We’d be there toovif we weren’t working.) We really

Maddox speech praised
To the Editor.

I would like to publicly congratulate the
Student Associations Speaker’s Bureau for bringing
Lester Maddox to the UB campus. In bringing
Maddox to Clark Hall, the bureau accomplished two
very important functions. First, it protected the
right of Mr. Maddox to express views which he
believes in very firmly. No matter how popular or
unpopular, he has the constitutional right of
freedom of speech.
The second function was rather ironic. In my
opinion, Maddox’s trip to UB acted to strengthen

the pro-integration point of view. After hearing
Maddox speak, I would contend that unless one is
against truthfulness, clean politics, apple pie and
motherhood, there is very little controversy in what
Maddox said. The question and answer session was a
complete farce and if anything, it allowed enough
time for Maddox to make a fool of himself. This
man who campaigned for governor of Georgia as an
avowed segregationist and who has repeatedly
demonstrated his prejudiced views in the public eye,
flatly denied that he was a racist. Hypocrisy indeed!

has become the latest figure involved in the

missing Watergate tapes controversy, according to
sources close to the special Watergate
prosecutor’s office.
According to informed sources, Kowalski,

found two tapes in the White House garbage the
day after President Richard M. Nixon informed
U.S. Circuit Court Judge John J. Sirica that two
crucial tapes were missing.

Kowalski, who owns a tape recorder that
uses similar tapes, told Justice Department
officials he took the tapes home with him hoping
he could use them. But Kowalski subsequently
mislaid the tapes and so far has failed to produce
them for the prosecution team.

Congress: people's voice
To the Editor:
The major problem that the people who support
the impeachment of the President will face is evident
from Rep. Thomas O’Neil Jr.’s statement in the
October 29 issue of The Spectrum. O’Neil says, “I
do not believe that the new prosecutor will be
acceptable to the Congress and the American
public . . .” If it is not acceptable to the American
public, it should never be acceptable to the Congress.
The statement implies that the prosecutor must meet
the demands of both the public and the Congress. If
the public supports an issue, an appointment, or an
impeachment, the Congress should also support it,
because the Congress is supposedly a voice of the
people. Congress should have no free choice, no will

of its own. Unfortunately, however, it does. For this
reason, even if Nixon's impeachment if favored by a
majority of the peop’e, the Congressmen may or
choose
to
initiate impeachment
may
not

proceedings, depending on their own individual
beliefs. I feel that the time has come to remind the
Congress that their opinions must reflect the voters’
opinions. In exercising impeachment powers, a
Congressman must act according to the wishes of the
people he represents, and not according to his
personal wishes.
A Congressman is better if he is a responsive

follower than if he is a strong leader.

by Jonathan Kozol
The Spectrum

Special to

Early last year, during an education conference
the South, I had a startling conversation with
Edgar Friedenberg. An author known to many of us
during the 1960’s for books and essays'on the ghetto
schools and the youth revolt, Friedenberg seemed to
have arrived at a disheartening point of personal
surrender.
‘The black struggle,” said Friedenberg, “is no
longer a significant issue . .’’Today we are involved
in

.

more sophisticated issues; “institutional
questions, structural difficulties, the analysis and
function of the educational apparatus in and of
itself.” The civil rights struggle of the 1960’s, in
Friedenberg’s view, “was a legitimate matter in its
own time. It is, in this, a little like the moment of an
infant’s parturition: it happens once. You deal with
it once. Then you go on to something new.”
Friedenberg’s words, his slick and anesthetic
tone, above all, his willingness to relegate the issue of
black people to the slag heap of outdated matters, is
neither unfamiliar nor unprecedented in this decade.
There is in public school an almost standard

with

sequence of the kind Friedenberg exemplifies.
The idea takes hold in us that we have done A
Real Thing by the ritual of petition and refusal; that
we have thereby lived up to our dream, to our
vocation, or to our mandate as good people, and
now may go on to The Next Thing. The next thing
may be our class play, a rock-concert, “Pep Club,”
or summer in Vancouver; at the hip (and college)
level, it is “a new bag” to be “into”; at the adult
level, it is another research project, the discovery and
definition of “a new oppressed minority, a new
movement, a new ideological position, a New Thing
To Try and Fail At. From this experience of
non-stop locomotion, there emerges, I believe, the
familiar and unsettling phenomenon that appears to
many European observers of the U.S. Left as

“Ideological Promiscuity,” movin’ on, as the
folksong has it, from one moment of impotent
advocacy to the next one. A friend of mine has
suggested the following definition of a Fashionable
Movement in the U.S.A. in 1965 or 1970: “Ask, try,
plea, fail. Write an interesting pieces for The New
York Review of Books on the subject of your
failure. Go on to a new movement.”
I don’t believe that this is totally unfair, but I
think that in stating it in this way there is the chance
that we can miss the real point. This is the notion

that “to ask” and “to ask and fail” is first described

to us in school, and then experienced by us in our
adult lives, as the moral equivalent of Having Done a
Real Thing. It is for certain, a low-cost way of telling

Page eight. The Spectrum Wednesday, 7 November 1973
.

ourselves that we are not bad people, and yet and
still of obviating all deep, solemn, or risk-taking
action. I think that school, the press and media go to
some extremes to let us make this kind of
substitution. School says to us: “You did a Real
Thing. You had your class-discussion about race and
ethics. Now go on to your next subject.”
In the literary world, there is the same idea;
“You did something by writing a book of protest.
We did something by reading what you wrote. We
went even further by giving you a good review. Now
get on to the next issue . . .”
In somewhat the same way, we hear ourselves or
one another say;.“We had a Civil Rights Movement.”
Theye is the hallucination almost that a human need
was answered by the very idea, like a cloud up in the
movement In a sense
sky, of the "having” of
perhaps it was : a need was answered: not the human
need that it was supposed to be about, but our own
need for a plausible activism. It is remarkable
sometimes to observe with what success young
people can be manipulated by the press and school
and TV -to keep moving forward in this manner. It is
even more remarkable that we are so easily
of
persuaded
our own volition in this
forward-motion. “We’re into a New Thing” I hear
the high school students say. “We’re into Ecology,”
or “into Women’s Liberation” or “into communes.”
It isn’t that each of these items might not be a thing
worth being “into,” but it is the idea that these
students often have (a) that they are freely choosing
for each thing that they go “into,” (b) that to be
“into” something only for the length of time it takes
to try and fail at it is of any real worth to other
*

human beings.

The forward motion from one surrender to the
next, within the present period, is characterized by a
dizzying progression of “concerns,” each of which is
tried, consumed and traded-in almost like' new
clothing-fashions or new models of a TV: a civil

rights, peace, ecology, pollution, women’s liberation,
welfare rights, the pathos of the white and

unrespected middle-class, the American Indian, the
Mexican-Americans in the Southwest, Puerto Ricans
in Manhattan, overworked pupils at upper-class prep
schools in New England, and so forth and so on,
with each cause imposing claims upon us in
unceasing sequence, but always with shorter and
still-shorter periods of concentration and of
perseverance.

Each of these movements is legitimate. The
question is not the substance of each movement, but
the character, of our forward ambulation. We move
forward not from completion to completion, but
from one incompletion to the next. The discovery
by the intelligent wife of a Manhattan millionaire
that she too is oppressed, first because she went to
an oppressive prep school that was not like
Summerhill, second because she is a woman and
cannot go down to Wall Street like her husband,
leads her to the final step of equating her oppression
with that of the victim of the slum. The problem is
not only that this is a vicious and dishonorable
equation (her children are not bom brain-injured in
unsterile delivery rooms; she is not starving; her
children do not chew lead-infested paint; her
sickness, cancer, epilepsy, heart-disease, does not go
unexamined and untreated) but also that by such an
equation neither form of oppression will ever be
dealt with in a conscientious way. Each will produce
literature, controversy, talk-shows, a New Thing to
Be Unto, a Special Issue of Transaction or of the
Partisan Review. Nobody who is now in pain will be
in less pain when it is all over.
“Purity of heart,” write Kierkegaard, “is to will
one thing.” This is at least one thousand light-years

�r

on the tame subject. It gets the same kind of
attention at the first one; it is handled and contained
in just the same way.
The same ritual takes place also among the
people from whom I work within the Free Schools.
There is a characteristic way in which some us learn
not only to “consume
acquire” and “possess”
each book or fashion, innovation or idea, as it is
published or put forward, but also to exploit the
very sequence of these offerings in such a Way as to
provide us with a constant pretext for the inward
action of surrender and betrayal.
There is a familiar process, for example,
whereby each new book, each new name and each
new fashion serves not as a strong and vigorous
passage of rededication and regeneration of the sense
of struggle with which we first began but rather as a
justification for desertion of those things which we
have undertaken. In such a way, the exercise of
ideological consumption is tied to the parallel
process of inevitable obsolescence. Each “New
Thing” provides not only instant titillation, fodder
for the talk-show and the magazines, and visiting
lecturers for the university; it also provides a
constant pretext for the act of ethical betrayal.
We meet, Within Free Schools, extraordinary
numbers of young people who seem to be able to
take up, exploit, relish and reject new books, new
notions and new allies almost with the same rapidity
and ease as they would “take” or “drop” new
college-courses. The types of serious, well-intending
but inconstant men and women I now have in mind
hip in appearance, radical in words, but
desperately well-programmed in behavior
discover
each year the work of someone new and brilliant and
remarkable and highly interesting, read it with relish,
digest it with uninhibited appetite but then make use
of this new ideological appropriation as a persuasive
reason to move on from where they are to something
new.
They read Illich and they come back- and report
to the mothers and the fathers of the children they
have known that “school” as an effective concept is
out-dated, square, archaic. They read John Holt and
they report to the mothers and the fathers of their
students you cannot “teach” formal skills in any
case: so you should not waste time in even trying.
They read Charles Silberman and they report to their
co-workers that “joy” and “joylessness” are the only
words we need to think about or use in our
discussions and disputations. No need, then, to be
troubled about books or math materials or Building
Code. They read Black Power writings
scrupulously selected, as I often find
and they
announce, in what they take to be the dialect of the
slum, that “the white man” ought,.to go away and let
“the black man” get himself ’‘together” and do hi*
dwn “thing.” (They say this even in the midst of
sessions taking place at strong, successful, integrated
Free Schools.) The conclusion of all of this is to
pack up their books, lock up their conscience, put
away their dedications and their skills, go into the
woods and build a whole new set of ideals and

distant from the kind of ambulatory dedication that
encouraged by the schools and by the press and
media. During the high school visits that I make
from time to time, I often hear kids saying things
like this: “We used to be into that race and
consciousness bit ... We’re into a new bag this
is

year

...”

There is a kind of hollowness, an empty ring,

about the whole thing. It sounds less like an achieved
serenity than like disguised surrender. It happens in
very much the same way with, large numbers of

a good thing in itself, but “moving on’’ is not a good
thing if it is a way of thinning us out, of spinning out
our worth or squandering our capability for love and
for vocation along a boardwalk of inadequate
completions. We go along beside the games of
chance, trying and losing, and moving on to try the
next game. As at a boardwalk, there is much
commotion, little industry, but few rewards.
The obsessive character of this routine of
endless
navigation
from one moment of
uncompleted passion to the next is seen in almost
every area of intellectual and moral aspiration. It is
seen in our capability to take up, savor, relish and
digest new movements, new ideas, new dedications,
then to shift gears and leave behind those visions and
those short-lived passions. It is seen as well in the
disturbing way in which we learn to praise and
purchase, honor and esteem new books on deep and
solemn subjects every year, then neatly slot and
channel them into the proper boxes for cold storage.

and reflection, into some of those things that I have
done before and into some of those real-life needs
that still exist right here in the South End.
There is for each of us the need to learn and
grow
and grow, of course, in terms of our own
consciousness of what “school" is about. There is,
however, an even deeper need to find one solid core
of concrete action and specific dedication in one
neighborhood, or in one city, with just one group of
allies and with one set of loyalties and with one deep
dream of love and transformation.
This it the kind of challenge that I know my
wife and I will face within the years ahead. I walk in
our neighborhood alone on many nights, and 1
wonder whether we will be here $till within this
neighborhood or within this struggle, ten years
hence. It is easier, in many ways, to drive to the
airport and fly to Mexico City than it is to walk to
Peter’s house two blocks away and sit and look
straight in his father’s eyes. This is the struggle also
of the Free School movement. It is the struggle,
the whole youth movement in this nation
at the present time. It is the struggle of those of us
who have been- trained for twenty years to be
nonstop consumers, and now must pause to teach
ourselves how to be loyal to one thing that we
believe in.

loyalties.

The question, however, that we need to ask
ourselves is this: What kinds of loyalties can be
constructed on a groundwork of desertion? There is
a black child that I know in Boston who has now
gone through four generations of white teachers,
organizers,
drifters, VISTAS, O.E.O.-supported
revolutionaries and what he calls, ‘The Hippie
People,” all in the course of six years. Peter can list
the names of all the young white men and young
white women he has known. They give him supper
and then buy him shoes and take him out on hikes
and sit down on the floor and play with the
Cuisenaire rods for one summer and one winter, and
sometimes for one spring and for one summer once
again. They they switch gears and they are into a
New Thing. They cancel him out, or rather they do
they cannot quite do that
not “cancel” him
but
situate him rather in a slot of history or in a place of
pain known as “the race and conscience bag.” They
make new friends and read new books and find a
whole new set of words, and they are off to a new

dedication.

Peter, however, does not live within the “race
and conscience bag.” He lives on Columbus Avenue
in the South End of Boston. He is a real person and,
after they are gone, he is still here.
nonstop
The
instinct
for
the
forward-locomotion
that I speak of here is
something which is present in almost all men and all
women I know. My wife and I know very well that
we would not be so disturbed at shifting loyalties
and transient dedications of this kind if we did not
perceive the strongest impulses of this nature in our
own lives. It is very, very tempting to keep moving
onward. It is extremely hard to stay in one place and
to follow through on one thing. I like very much to
read the works of Ivan Illich. I like even more to talk
and argue with him. I like most of all ,to travel to
Cuernavaca and sit down upon a lovely terrace and
have lunch with Illich, or else to walk out on the hill
above the monastery and to stroll along that
mountain road and talk of things that might be
possible one day. I also feel the need, however, to
amalgamate these kinds Of new and deep and

Maybe the way to change the world
is to Join a large
We don’t make a lot of noise, but this is wheVe it’s
really happening. You see, a large corporation like Kodak has
the resources and the skill to make this world a little more decent place to live. And we intend to do what we can to see
that this is exactly what happens.
Thke our home city, Rochester, New York for example. We cut water pollution in the Genesee River by using
natural bacteria to dispose of unnatural wastes. We cut air
pollution by using electrostatic precipitators in a new combustible waste disposal facility. We helped set up a black
enterprise program in downtown Rochester, and we’ve been
experimenting with film as a way to train both teachers and
students—including some students who wouldn’t respond to
anything else.
And we didn’t stop with Rochester. Kodak is involved
in 47 countries all over tire world. Actively involved.

Why? Because it’s good business. Helping to clean
the Genesee River not only benefits society... but helps protect another possible source for the clean water we need to
make our film. Our combustible waste disposal facility not
only reduces pollution... but just about pays for itself in
heat and power production and silver recovery. Our black
enterprise program not only provides an opportunity for the
economically disadvantaged... but helps stabilize communities in which Kodak can operate and grow. And distributing
cameras and film to teachers'and students not only helps
motivate the children... but helps create a whole new market.
In short, it’s simply good business. And we’re in business to make a profit. But in furthering our business interests,
we also further society’s interests.
And that’s good. After all, our business depends on
society. So we care what happens to it.

New prosecutor approved

by Louis Harris

By 57-21 per cent, a majority of the American
people prefer “a new special prosecutor” for the Watergate
investigation, who is “completely independent-of President
Nixon” and “appointed by the courts or by Congress,”
rather than a man who would serve under the President in
the Justice Department. Thus, by better than 2 to 1, the
public has come down against the President who just last
Friday said he wanted another Special Watergate
Prosecutor who would be part of the Justice Department.
A majority of 58-21 per cent thought the President
“was wrong to fire former Special Prosecutor Archibald
Cox” last week and 55 per cent thought both former
Attorney General Elliot Richardson and former Deputy
Attorney General William Ruckelshaus were right to leave
their offices in protest.
Basically, the American people lay great store on
what Judge Sirica will find in the 9 tapes President Nixon
has agreed to turn over to him. By 56-21 per cent, Mr.
Nixon was viewed as “doing the right thing” when he
changed his mind and consented to hand over the tapes.
However, by 56-30 per cent, most people also felt he
agreed to turn over the tapes “only because he knew he
would be impeached if he didn’t.”
By 63-23 per cent, a solid majority feel that “if the
tapes show he was involved in the Watergate cover-up,
President Nixon should resign or be impeached.” But by
an almost identical 64-23 per cent margin, the people also
think “if the tapes show President Nixon was not involved
in Watergate, then the country should join behind him in a
show of national unity.” By a relatively narrow 41-32 per

cent a plurality expressed disbelief of the statement that
“Nixon would not have handed over the tapes unless he
had altered or fixed them to eliminate all evidence
damaging to himself.”
After the hectic events of the past 10 days, the net
shift in public opinion has been a gross feeling that
Richard Nixon’s continued tenure in the White House rests
squarely on proof or disproof of his involvement in
Watergate or its cover-up. The number who think he
“should resign if it is proven that he knew about the
coverup” has risen from 50-39 per cent in late September
to 55-33 per cent as of last Monday. Comparably, “if the
U.S. Senate Watergate Committee decides that he was
involved in the Watergate cover-up,” a 52-34 per cent
majority thinks “Congress should impeach President
Nixon,” up from 47-39 per cent who felt that way 5 weeks
ago.
Between October 26 and 29, a cross section of 1007
adults who had been previously interviewed in Harris
Surveys were reinterviewed by telephone. They were
asked: “Do you think the Watergate investigation should
continue under the supervision of Henry Petersen of the
Department of Justice, or should a new special prosecutor,
freely independent of President Nixon, be appointed by
the courts or by Congress?”

Brooke calls for Nixon’s resignation
Senator Edward W. Brooke (R., Mass.), became the first
Republican to openly call for President Nixon’s resignation Monday.
Mr. Brooke said he had “reluctantly” come to the conclusion that the
President should resign “in the interests of this nation” as Republicans
and Democrats sought to assess the impact of a sharp decline in public
support for Mr. Nixon, as measured by the Gallup Poll.
A spokesman for the President said Monday that the President has
“absolutely no intention of resigning.”
Time magazine, in its first editorial in its 50 years of publication
called on the President to resign. Senator Henry Jackson (D., Wash.)
said Mr. Nixon should appear before the Senate Watergate investigating
committee and “lay his cards on the table.”

The government said Friday plans to ration heating oil and crude
oil stocks are under White House consideration.
Nelson was critical of both government and business policies on
fuel. He said the United States wastes as much fuel as Japan, the
world’s third biggest industrial power, consumes.
“It’s not the consumer’s fault that only 10 per cent of the fuel
burned by our automobiles ends up doing useful work,” he said.
Call for 1974 Presidential election
UPI
NEW YORK
Democratic Rep. Bella S. Abzug, in a move
she said “removes a potential partisan charge” from the problem of
presidential succession should President Nixon resign or be impeached,
outlined plans for legislation that would provide for a special
presidential election before 1976.
Speaking at a news conference at her New York City office, Mrs.
Abzug said she planned to introduce a bill in Congress next week that
would call for a special election in November, 1974, when all of
Congress and a third of the Senate is up for election.
She cited as a precedent a statute written in 1792 which she said
was recently discovered by a group of constitutional lawyers.
The statute, drawn up by members of the Second Congress,
provides for national elections in the event of simultaneous vacancies in
the presidency and the vice presidency, Mrs. Abzug said.
She also said that the Constitution provides that the speaker of the
House assume the presidency only on a temporary basis, therefqftT
requiring a special presidential election if the regularly scheduled

election is too far away.

finish line also repeating a 1972
triumph.

The cross-country Bulls closed
their 1973 season Saturday with a
thirteenth-place finish in the New
York State championships at
Fredonia. Buffalo scored 317
points in the sixteen-team race,
well off the pace set by Colgate.
The Red Raiders won the meet
for the second straight year with
39 points. Dave Moller of
Rochester was first across the

Buffalo’s performance at
Fredonia was only mildly
disappointing, despite their low
finish. The Good Scout, a report
on New York collegiate track,
picked Buffalo to finish
fourteenth, but coach Jim
McDonough was slightly more
hopeful, commenting, “We should
be able to do better than that.”
Just prior to the race, he forecast

a twelfth place finish for Buffalo,
After the meet, McDonough
observed, “I suppose we did as
well as we could have.” None of
the Buffalo runners ran especially
well. As usual, Captain Bruce
Tuttle led the Bulls with a 44th
place finish in the field of 109.
Buffalo finished with a 6-11
record for the year, and although
McDonough is not happy with
that mark, he has reasons to be
optimistic. Only Tuttle will be

first professional baseball season,
ex-Buffalo shortstop Rick Albert

batted .263 with six home runs
and S7 RBI's to achieve selection

as all-star shortstop in the Western
Carolines League. Albert had been
named as all-star shortstop while
playing for the Braves’ Wytheville
rookie league affiliate in 1972.
“I had a fair to good year; it
could have been better,” reported
Albert. “I had a bad August. The
bus rides every other day got to
me, and the weather was very
humid and hot. When it came to
the end of the season, everybody

was drained.”

Albert said his season at
Greenwood had been more
difficult than his rookie year at
Wytheville. “The weather was a
big

Albert. “In addition, there were
longer bus trips, and we had to

Albert.
Albert recalled his manager at
ex-knuckleball
Greenwood,
pitcher Hoyt Wilhelm. “Playing
for him was definitely an
experience,” stated Albert. “It
was his first year as a manager,
and he had a lot to leam. He had
been sitting in the bullpen for
twenty years and didn’t have the
experience of coaching third base
or making managerial decisions.
When it came to the ptiching
angle, he was good. He knew how
to handle pitchers, and he knew
the right time to take them out,”
said Albert.
Albert will report to spring

camp next March in hopes of
earning a promotion to Atlanta's
Class A A farm team in Savannah,
Georgia.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

speech must not be “put on the shelf.” Less than one per
cent of the student body lacked courtesy and respect in all
of his other speaking engagements, he said.
Without further interruptions, Mr. Maddox shared his
personal background with the audience, from his
childhood days selling peanuts on the streetcorners of
Atlanta to his first term as Governor of Georgia. Even
while his family was poor and underprivileged, he was still
pround of “our great country.”
‘This is the most difficult and threatening time in the
history of the Republic,” said Mr. Maddox, beginning his
assault on the hypocricy and dishonesty of the American
society and government. There is no “generation gap” as
long as honesty and truth prevail, said Mr. Maddox, telling
the audience not to “practice what my generation
practices, instead of what it preaches.”

months before he agreed to release them.
‘The big shots ought to get it,” said Mr. Maddox, not
the “little shots,” the hired Watergate burglars. He called
for Mr. Nixon’s resignation for bringing “disgrace and
shame to the highest office in the land.” Referring to his
own further political ambitions, Mr. Maddox said: “I’d
rather be successful than President.”
In his closing remarks, the speaker challenged the
“Now Generation” to be “real and honest.” He urged;
“You have the power to make America stand or fall and I
hope you’ll make it stand. The applause was polite but
hardly enthusiastic.

Mr. Maddox appeared certain the present

Co-c-d

SUNY to enroll inmates
by Jacqui Schock
Spectrum

Staff

Writer

A new college for prison inmates is expected to
be approved by the Trustees of the State University
of New York (SUNY). The proposed college would
be the first of its kind in the nation, announced
SUNY Chancellor Ernest L. Boyer and Corrections
Commissioner Peter Preiser.
The program will enable both men and women
inmates to enroll in full-time study for two-year
associate degrees in liberal arts and science and
Bedford Hills Correctional Facility in Westchester
County. The men’s division of this facility has been
closed for renovation sonce last April to prepare for
the expected 200 student-inmates.
Tomothy Healy, Vice Chancellor for Academic
Affairs at the City University of New York, is taking
a leave of absence to become co-chairman of a task
force to plan the college. The task force will also
study higher education programs at the 24
correctional facilities in the state.
Serious business
“This is an attempt to make serious the business
of rehabilitation,” Dr. Boyer said. ‘The college will
have a liberal arts curriculum because the prison
system already has vocational programs. The
problem is not so much to prepare inmates for jobs
as to educate them in the broader sense and give
them a better self-image,” he continued. He termed
a correctional
the proposal “a unique experiment
facility which also serves as a separate campus.”
“We believe the proposed programs will make it
possible for more prisoners to move bake into
society and lead productive lives,” said Dr. Boyer
and Mr. Preisner in a moint statement. Existing but
presently-unoccupied facilities at Bedford Hill would
be used for the male inmates, while the females
would receive instruction in an adjacent facility
which they currently occupy.
The male prisoners at Bedford Hills will be
selected from among the 13,000 inmates confined at
failities throughout the state, explained Edward
El win, deputy commissioner for program services in
-

the Corrections Department and co-chairman of the
task force. Fifty inmates at the women’s division of
the Bedford Hills facility will be enrolled into the
college, depending upon their qualifications, a
spokesman announced. About 350 women are
confined in the prison, the only one for women
operated in the state. “People with college ability
will be screened and then chosen,” a spokesman
explained.

Diploma required
An inmate-student will be required to have a
high school diploma or an equivalency certificate,
which can be earned through the prison system’s
educational program. “Classes for men and women
will be separate at the beginning,” Dr. Boyer said,
“with the professors going back and forth between
the two facilities.”
Prisoners who become students must have
sentences ranging from at least one year to life.
Students may enroll regardless of the offense for
which they were convicted. Pending approval of the
State Legislature, the additional costs of running the
institution will be paid by SUNY, and maintenance
will be handled by the Department of Correctional
Services.
The colleges will be the only tuition-free unit
within the SUNY system. Students will be
guaranteed the right to transfer their credits to other
SUNY colleges pending their release from Bedford
Hills.
“The Bedford Hills campus would serve as a
pilot program in a possible network of inmate
educational facilities,” Mr. Preisner said. “We hope
to develop a kind of master plan which will lead to a
more rational and better-coordinated education
program for inmates. Bedford Hills would be a key
project in this education network,” he added.
The decision to start the college apparently grew
out of the studies undertaken to improve the prison
system which followed the uprising at Attica in
September 1971, in which 43 persons died. Plans for
this new college will be submitted to the State
Legislature for consideration during the 1974
session.

Demands for President Nixon’s
resignation or impeachment
intensified over the weekend as 60
per cent of Americans in the latest
Gallup poll expressed disapproval
of Mr. Nixon’s conduct of the
Presidency and Congressional
Republicans were discussing ways
of telling the President that he
should resign.
The White House said Friday
President Nixon would make
available to the federal courts a
memorandum he made of his
conversation with former White
House counsel John W. Dean HI
on April 15, 1973. This and
another conversation were
supposed to be contained in the
tapes the President surrendered to
Judge John J. Sirica, but are now
missing.
Presidential spokesman Gerald
L. Warren said Nixon dictated
recollections of the meeting
shortly after the conversation
took place and this record was
still in existence. Warren said he
did not know whether a similar
memorandum was from the other
missing

tape conversation,

a

phone call to Mr. Mitchell made
on June 30, 1972.
Nixon knew five weeks ago
Stephen Bull, a presidential
special assistant, testified Mr.
Nixon knew at least five weeks
ago that two of the nine secret
Watergate tapes which he agreed
to surrender last week to the
courts were missing. Mr. Bull also
told the court that “perhaps two
or three, perhaps more” other
taped presidential conversations
may be missing. The While House
announced this past weekend it
had “just discovered” the tapes
were missing.
As a result of the missing Dean
tape, Government attorneys are
planning to subpoena yet another
White House tape. They are now
seeking the tape which recorded
the Oval Office conversations of
June 4, 1973, a day on which Mr.
Nixon spent about 10 hours
listening to tapes of his meetings
with Mr. Dean. They believe the
June 4 tape may show whether or
not Mr. Nixon listened that day to
the disputed April 15 Dean
the tape
conversation tape
which the President now says does
not exist. Mr. Bull testified Friday
that he thought the June 4 tape
"quite possible” could have
picked up what the President
heard when he listened to all the
tapes of his conversations with
Mr. Dean that day.
However, Watergate
prosecutors said Friday the White
House had not proved the two
secret tapes never existed and
they would conduct a complete
examination to find out what
happened. A lawyer for the

Watergate Special Prosecuting
force said the American people
“expect and are entitled to" an
explanation regarding the missing
tapes.

In order to answer questions
about the missing tapes, the
prosecution said it will call former
White House Chief of Staff H.R.
Haldeman, former Haldeman aide
Larry Ligby, assistant Attorney
General Henry L. Peterson, and
Federal Aviation administrator
Alexander P. Butterfield, the man
who revealed July 16 existence of
the President’s secret tapes.
Machine ran out of tape
Additionally, a Secret Service
agent once in charge of President
Nixon’s secret tape recordings
testified Thursday he just doesn’t
know whether the recording
machine really ran out of tape last
April 15 just before a crucial
presidential conversation about
Watergate. Another witness. White
House archivist John C.Nesbeth,
testified he made a rare revision of
the President’s minute-by-minute
diary for that date several months
later on the urging of Mr. Nixon’s
Watergate lawyers.

Adding to the confusion
surrounding the missing tapes was
the fact that a box in which tapes
of the April 14-15 weekend were
stored, introduced into evidence,
bore the notation ‘Tart I,”
indicating it may once have been
only part of a larger collection for
that weekend.
Raymond C. Zumwalt, a Secret
Service custodian of the tapes,
responded with a simple “no”
when the Watergate Prosecutor
asked if he knew whether Mr.
Haldeman had been given the
disputed tape. Fred Buzhardt,
Presidential attorney, told
reporters he couldn’t recall if Mr.
Haldeman was given the tape to
review.
In a related development, Sen.
Sam Ervin (D., N.C.) introduced a
bill today that would give the US.
District Court jurisdiction over his
Senate Watergate-related tapes.
Sen. Ervin’s bill would give Judge
Sirica’s court jurisdiction over the
tape. Through a parliamentary
maneuver, Sen. Ervin arranged for
the Senate to vote next week on
the bill.
Concerning Mr. Nixon’s
nomination for special prosecutor
(Leon Jawaroski), Sen. Ervin said
he was a competent attorney, but
he thinks “a lot of the members
of Congress are not altogether
happy with the selection. I don’t
think you can give the special
prosecutor independence as long
as he is subject to the Justice
Department and the White
House,” he concluded.

Peter J. Fiorella is the Republican Party’s
nominee for the office of State Senator of the 55th
District in Buffalo. These are his positions:
Abortion: Mr. Fiorella claimed he had no
answer for the abortion question. He called the issue
very controversial, but stated: “I am not in favor of
repeal of the present law.” Mr. Fiorella, a Catholic,
said he “would lean toward keeping the laws as they

Marijuana:

feels

that

the

present laws concerning pot are “too stringent,” and
repeatedly emphasized his change in attitude. “At
one time I didn’t feel that way, but I changed my
attitude, and I credit the younger generation for that
change.” He does not favor legalizing the drug, but
did say: ‘There shouldn’t be a crime attached to the
use of marijuana.” That attitude should go “hand in

hand” with creating more “lenient” penalties for
possession.
Transportation Bond Issue: Mr. Fiorella favors
the bond issue, even though he feels it has its “good
and bad" points. “No one understands it... it is
complex
but it has more good than bad.” In a
related issue, Mr. Fiorella said he does not support
overhead transit in Buffalo, and quickly supported
the transportation bond issue, while opposing
....

overhead transit.
Sales Tax: Calling Gov. Rockefeller an “astute
businessman" who created a budget surplus in an
election year, Mr. Fiorella said the surplus money
should be used for education, or for the “tunnelling”
of the proposed transit line in Buffalo.
Mr. Fiorella mentioned that the Off-Track
Betting Corporation will bring an additional S3
million into Erie County, and suggested the
possibility of repealing the sales tax with “that kind"
of revenue. The Republican is in favor of legalized
gambling, and feels it will "come all over the state.”
Responding to the argument that legalized gambling

could result in severe loss of income for low-income
families that tend to gamble, Mr. Fiorella said:

“Gamblers are gamblers; they will gamble regardless
of their income.”
Education: Mr. Fiorella is not in favor of
doubling tuition at public institutions of higher
education. He does favor increased aid to the SUNY
and CUNY systems. In regard to the Committee on
Economic Development’s recommendation that
tuition at public institutions should be doubled, Mr.
Fiorella said; “CED is not anticipating the needs of
the people. 1 could not have made it through school
without loans, and they are becoming increasingly
more difficult to obtain.”
Student Lobbies; “I will listen to them as I
listen to anyone else,” he said. “Students should not
be pushed aside just because they are students. I
changed my opinion on marijuana because of
students; there is no u ison why that can’t happen
again.”
.ong feelings”
Drug Law: Mr. Fiorella has
about the law. “I don’t think that other programs
have worked, and I don’t have the answer.” Mr.
Fiorella recognized that a 21 or 22 year-old may be
put in jail for life and feels this is unwarranted. “As a
lawyer, I feel the law is unconstitutional because of
cruel and unusual punishment, and the equal
protection clause. We should give it a year to see if a
pattern develops, and then look at it more
intelligently. Then if necessary we can modify or
repeal

it.”

Arming of Campus Security: There is “no need”
for such a move, Mr. Fiorella said. “It is only for the
self-protection of the campus police force. There are

threats from students.”
Penil System: The present penal system should
be “revised and looked into,” Mr. Fiorella said.
we
“New York is lacking and lagging behind
should modernize the penal system . . . Attica should
not have arisen.” Mr. Fiorella opposes building
additional institutions for the incarceration of
convicted criminals; he advocates more progressive
types of prison reform.

carrot the Governor is dangling in
front of the voters. ”1 am opposed
to the way in which the
proposition was handled, but if it
is the only way to get mass transit
for the Buffalo area, then I favor
the plan.” Mr. Tauriello believes
that mass transit was absolutely
necessary for the Buffalo area.
Student Lobbies; The
Democrat said he would certainly
sit down and listen to the student
lobbies present in Albany, and if
he agreed with them, would push
their point of view in the State
Senate. ‘The problem is there
aren’t enough people in office
listening to the people they’re
supposed to represent. Students
deserve more input into the
system, and I for one, have
learned a lot from students.”
Penal System: Mr. Tauriello
feels the entire penal system
should be revamped, with
emphasis on the rehabilitation
aspects. “If a person is convicted
by a jury of his peers, he should
go to jail. However, we should
train him to do something when
he gets 9ut. The present
vocational programs are totally
inadequate.” Mr. Tauriello did not

Joseph Tauri ello, a
representative for the Eighth
District of the Erie County
Legislature, is the Democratic
candidate for State Senator from
the 55th District. Here are his
stands on the issues:
Abortion: If Gov. Rockefeller
were to leave his post, and Lt.
Gov. Malcolm Wilson were to take
his place, Mr. Tauriello said he
would support Mr. Wilson in
repealing the present liberalized
abortion law. He “doesn’t favor”
the legislation as it now stands,
citing “personal reasons” for
adopting this stand.
New Drug Law; It is too early
to “pass judgement” on the new
law, said Mr. Tauriello, but he is
confident that the law “would be
challenged.”

‘The guy they should hang” is
the pusher, he said, not the person
who simply has possession of a
drug. Although one section of the
law mandates a jail sentence for
marijuana users convicted of
possession, Mr. Tauriello
maintained: “It’s a good law.”
Tuition doubling; Mr. Tauriello
was
firmly opposed to the
doubling of tuition at public
institutions: “I don’t think
students should have to pay more
than they already do.”

If elected

Erie County Sheriff Michael set up. This unit was created as a
Amico, widely known for his new section of the department,
hard-line position on narcotics
offenders, is seeking another term
in office in tomorrow’s election.
Mr. Amico, who bagan his term of
office on January 1, 1970, claims
he has “highly professionalized
the sheriffs office.” His campaign
literature has characterized his
first term in office as “the most
progressive and productive in the
history of the Erie County
Sheriffs Department.”
Mr. Amico is “quite proud of
expecially of the
his record
95% conviction rate which the
department has obtained against
drug peddlers.” Although many of
the Sheriffs critics, including his
Republican opponent Sam
Giambrone, have accused him of
arresting large numbers of young
people bn petty drug charges,
rather than the big suppliers, Mr.
Amico maintained he is doing an
“adequate” job in this area of law
enforcement.
‘This accusation is absolutely
untrue,” the Sheriff asserted. “My
department has sought to arrest
all drug peddlers, regardless of
race, creed, nationality, or age. We
have arrested many large
suppliers, but it is sometimes
necessary to apprehend smaller
peddlers who will hopefully lead
us to the major sources of drug
traffic.” Sheriff Amico’s
department is ' credited with
making “64% of the 1,165 arrests
for possession or sale of illicit
drugs in Erie County in 1971.” It
should be noted that this
department is only one of 29 jaw
enforcement units ih the'county.
...

Narcotics Unit established
To help the Sheriff carry out
his campaign against illegal
narcotic users and distributors, a
15-man Narcotics Task Force was

and its manpower was not drawn
from the ranks of the department,
as many incorrectly believe. This
unit has “helped the department
to multiply efforts in narcotics
investigations at least five times
more than in the past,” said Mr.
Amico.
Another of the Sheriffs
innovations is the “Narco-Van,” a
27-foot long mobile unit which
circulates throughout the county
for preventive and educational
purposes. Various drug samples

equipped with an extensive library
of anti-drug films. Trained
deputies deliver lectures on drug
abuse and the public is invited to
view the films and exhibits.
Mr. Amico has also extended
his efforts to areas outside of
drug-related crime, and does not
want the public to believe that
narcotics investigation is his only
area of concentration. The Sheriff
established a special task force to
combat crime in the county’s
parks, which Mr. Amico claimed
—continued on page 13—

Samuel Giambrone is the
Republican-Liberal candidate for
Erie County Sheriff. Mr.
Giambrone has been involved in
police work since 1953, when he
was appointed to the Buffalo
Police Department. Since that
time he has worked as a detective
on the Narcotics Squad, served as
a liaison between the Buffalo
Police and the Federal Bureau of
Investigation, and held the post of
Under Sheriff for Erie County
under his present Democratic
opponent, Mike Amico.
Mr. Giambrone is reputed to be
a good law enforcement man and
helped to coordinate activities
within the Sheriffs office while
he served there. Among his duties
was the direction of a program
designed to maintain surveillance
on suspected radical elements
within the county. This
surveillance involved him in the
politics of the State University of
Buffalo, where he coordinated
undercover infiltration of the
“subversive” elements in the
University.
Overemphasizing drugs
Since leaving the Sheriff’s
office, Mr. Giambrone has been
highly critical of the way that
office has been run. He has
accused Sheriff Amico of placing
“far too much emphasis on drugs,
while neglecting the other duties
of the office.” He questioned the
effectiveness of Mr. Amico’s
highly touted war on drugs,
characterizing it as an attempt to
go after the “small-time user.” Mr.
Giambrone equated the war on
drugs with a “war on youth.” If
elected, he indicated he would
concentrate his drug control
efforts on the big-time dealers and
“go after the dealer before it [the
drugs] hits the street.” The
amount of effort being put into

to
shift priorities

the drug campaign is “way out of
proportion” with the other efforts
of the Sheriffs office, he feels,
and has “decreased the
effectiveness of the office in
prosecuting other offenses.” While
the Sheriffs department was
responsible for 65 per cent of all
the drug arrests in Erie County,
Mr. Giarobrone claimed it was
responsible for only 12 per cent
of the burglary arrests.

Manpower poorly deployed
Mr. Giambrone’s view of the
role of the Sheriff differs

drastically from that of the
incumbent. Since many of the
outlying areas of the county have
no police force of their own, he
feels the energy of the Sheriff’s
office should be concentrated
there. He advocates positioning
100 out of 176 deputies in these
areas, having them serve as a
full-time police force. The current
deployment of manpower in the
outlying regions is inadequate,
said Mr. Giambrone, and leaves
these districts without a police
force.
The policing of county roads is

largely the job of the Sheriff's

men, since there are only a few
state troopers on patrol in Brie

County. Mr. Giambrone claims
that the current administration is
not doing a sufficient job, noting
that 19 people died in highway
accidents in Erie County during
August 1973. This was the highest
fatality rate of any county in the
state. He claims a federally-funded
highway safety program known as
“Fatal Accident Reduction
Enforcement” was a “total
failure” under Sheriff Amico.
“During the three months that
this program was in effect, the
number of highway deaths was
higher than the same period a year
earlier,” the Republican candidate
said. Sheriff Amico defended the
program by saying “not a single
fatal accident occurred in the
areas that were covered as part of
the program,” and blamed the
lack of success on “inadequate
funding.”
Mr. Giatnbrone announced his
[dans to emphasize highway safety
and contrasted his strategy with
Mr. Amico’s: “I intend to save
lives, not ruin them.”
The Erie County Sheriff is
responsible for policing the entire
county. Mr. Giambrone feels
Buffalo and some of its suburbs
(such as Amherst) have good
police departments and do not
need the Sheriffs aid. “The
residents of these areas are
entitled to adequate police
protection when they travel to the
extremes of the county,” he said,
asserting he would take steps to
see that they received such
protection. Sheriffs deputies
working in areas with their own
police forces are “duplicating
effort,” he maintained, and in
certain cases, they confuse police
functions rather than making
them easier.

people, but rather are an effort to enforce

The race for Erie County Sheriff, the
law enforcement post in the
county, is being contested by Democratic
incumbent Michael Amico and Republican
challenger Sam Giambrone. The man who
holds that post is responsible for
maintaining the jails, ensuring that a
system of law enforcement functions
properly throughout the county, and may
assume control of any police unit that he
feels can no longer function effectively.
The office of far more than a figurehead;
voters should bear this in mind when they
go to the polls tomorrow.
The election has received a good deal of
publicity because of the reputation that
Mr. Amico has earned as a “crime fighter.”
Much of that reputation stems from the
publicity-grabbing arrests mady by the
Sheriff’s office in the last four years. Mr.
Giambrone has found fault with the
quality of these arrests, rather than the
quantity. A large number of these arrests
involve young people who possess small
quantities of marijuana, the challenger
maintains, and are ruining the lives without
having any major effect on the crug
problem in Erie County. Mr. Amico
contends that his arrest are helping to
remove drugs from the streets by making
people think twice before using them.
These .arrests are not aimed at young

Re-ordered priorities
Whatever Mr. Amico’s intentions, he has
placed a large number of young people in
jail without achieving any noticeable
reduction in drug use. His reputation has
been earned through the sheer quantity of
his arrests. These arrests have not resulted
in a marked decline in Erie County crime
statistics, nor have they warranted the
amount of publicity they have generated.
The philosophy advanced by Mr.
Giambrone would result in an emphasis on
patrolling the outlying areas of the county
where the Sheriff’s office is the only, police
force available. It would seem logical that
the city of Buffalo, with the highest ratio
of policemen-to-residents, should be able
to maintain the law without the assistance
of the Sheriff’s office. As travel from the
city to the surrounding areas increases, the
need for an ever-present police unit
becomes more obvious. Perhaps it is time
for the priorities of County Sheriff’s office
to be altered to suit the needs of the entire

highest

the law, Mr. Amico contends.

Lack of alternatives

The drug problem will remain with Erie
County, regardless of how many arrests are
made by any law enforcement agency. The
need for enforcement of the drug laws is
obvious, but that enforcement should be

aimed at the major source of the problem,

not applied indiscriminantly to small-time
users. When the drug problem is turned
into a matter of political expediency and
attention-getting publicity, no one involved

true issue is the lack of alternatives the
public will be faced with tomorrow.

No choice
In spite of the minor differences
between the candidates over methods of
law enforcement, they are very similar
people. Sam Giambrone has already served
under Sheriff Amico’s administration in
two top positions. These two men appear
to represent the same ideology, a rather
conservative one. The voters of Erie
County can select which area of law
inforcement should be concentrated on,

but they are not being offered an

can really profit from the enforcement of
those laws.
But the tnte problem in this election is
not even the issues themselves; at least not
those issues which have been so
superficially presented to the public by the
candidates in this race. A shift from
enforcement of drug laws to another area
does not necessarily imply a progressive
attitude towards law enforcement. The

Mr. Amico is the better political
campaigner, with his flair for publicity, and
perhaps Sam Giambrone is to be

drug law enforcement policies. Yet is seems
that both men have already had their

It is difficult to fully endorse either

candidate in this race. Maybe Mr.
Giambrone is worth a chance, because the

McFarland, Cosgrove
vie for D.A position
.

Although quite sure he is the better man for the job.
Republican candidate for District Attorney James McFarland is not
as confident the electors will think so.
Honesty is one of Mr. McFarland’s main concerns. With the
“credibility of the Republican Party sinking fast,” he is trying to
maintain “an image of honesty and integrity.” He would like to
extend the Republican Party’s voice in the Eric County
government, and is very open about it.
Questioning his opponent’s promise to make a non-partisan
choice of assistant D.A., Mr. McFarland said; “It would be taxing
credulity to say the [D.A.’s] office would be totally non-partisan.”
He hopes to include women and younger people in his
appointments. Mr. McFarland reminded voters that he bucked his
party once when he thought they were forfeiting principle for
party interests. His was elected State Senator on the Independent
line.
Mr. McFarland was a co-sponsor of the much-criticized new
drug laws. He also advocates capital punishment and views it as a
deterrent to rape and murder.
Plea bargaining is an important part of the judicial system,
according to Sen. McFarland. Police can often over-iridict, and plea
bargaining reduces charges, he said. When asked if he thought that
plea bargaining pressured defendants into giving up their
constitutional rights, Mr. McFarland said; “It is a problem, but it
serves in the interest of justice.” He cites former Vice President
Agnew as a classic case, explaining that through plea bargaining, a
possible six-month trial was avoided.

� ����

The District Attorney’s job should be non-political, according
to Edward Cosgrove, Democratic candidate for the position. He
feels political inclinations must not affect the handling of cases that
arise. In appointing an assistant D.A., Mr. Cosgrove vowed to ignore
political affiliations and concern himself “with the person most
qualified for the job.”
Mr. Cosgrove approved of the new drug laws, hoping they will
focus on the arrest and conviction of hard drug pushers rather than
those who are “just flirting with marijuana.” Police should show
more discretion in arresting people, and should hand out tickets
requiring appearance in court instead, suggested Mr. Cosgrove. He
supports the principle of “innocent until proven guilty,” and would
like to see it be accorded more widespread use.
Mr. Cosgrove is opposed to plea bargaining, although he
conceded instances where it is necessary. He referred to it as
“giving up something to get something,” saying it can be an easy
out for a bad lawyer. As D.A., he would limit the number of times
plea bargaining can be used. ‘The case should be prepared well
enough to get a conviction without resorting to that,” said Mr.

Fuchsberg breaks tradition
Mr. Fuchsberg’s candidacy is a marked break
with tradition. He has never been a member of the
judiciary, and threatens to infiltrate the closed circle
of the Court of Appeals. His bid for election has
come under considerable pressure from the
traditional centers of judicial power in the state.
Several of the state’s Bar Associations and many of
the leading figures in the Judiciary have thrown their
support to Judge Breitel;some have even questioned

Mr. Fuchsberg’s qualifications for the job.
Under normal circumstances this lack of support
would be severely detrimental to the Democratic

candidate’s campaign. But by undertaking an
ambitious advertising campaign, Mr. Fuchsberg has
succeeded in making himself and his positions
known to the public. His ads, combined with the
press coverage of the June primary, have
overshadowed the efforts of Judge Breitel.
Judge Breitel has always maintained that his
experience as an associate justice on the Court of
Appeals makes him more qualified than his
opponent for the job. It appears Mr. Breitel has
chosen to lay low and allow his campaign managers
to do the job for him.

One might thus conclude that Mr. Fuchsberg is a
man of the people white Judge Breitel is a judicial
elitist. To do so would be a grave injustice to Judge
Breitel. The differences between the two men are
not as simple as their campaign literature implies.
The question of whether a “non-judge” should
be allowed to become the Chief Justice in the state is
a crucial one. To exclude Mr. Fuchsberg solely
because he has never been a judge would be unfair.
His experience in the field of law demonstrates that
he has the background to act effectively. His promise
to bring new and “badly needed” ideas to the Court
of Appeals seems to be valid. His presence may serve
as a catalyst f?&gt;r long-overdue court reform in the
state.

Fuld and Breitel disagree
Judge Breitel’s major claims to the office are his
judicial experience and the tradition of accession
through seniority. It would be difficult to find fault
with Judge Breitel’s past record. He has proven
himself to be a knowledgeable and effective judge.
To vote for him in anticipation of a continuation of
the progressive policies of Chief Justice Fuld,
however, would be a mistake. Judges Fuld and
Breitel have not always scon eye-toreye on the issue
of civil rights. Judge Fuld has a long history qf civil
rights advocacy. Mr. Breitel has not always been in
agreement with Judge Fuld, having dissented on
certain critical cases.
Judge Breitel’s approach to court reform varies
drastically from Mr. Fuchsbcrg’s. He advocates a
program that would bring the courts under
centralized jurisdiction. Mr. Fuchsberg puts the
emphasis on each individual judge and wants to
make them directly responsible for a set number of
cases.
If Judge Breitel is not elected, he will retain his
position in the Court of Appeals, where his opinion
will continue to be heard.
Mr. Fuchsberg offers a new voice and a pledge
of reform. His knowledge and famijiarity, combined
with a fresh approach to judicial problems, should
make him the better man for the job.

�$3.5 billion

Transportation bond issue
focus of concern, confusion
by Rich Deep
Sepctrum Staff Writer

New York voters will be asked tomorrow to
approve or reject the $3.5 billion Transportation
Bond Act.
Despite widespread debate on the bond issue,
many voters don’t know how to answer. And if the
nearly one million blank votes cast in 1971 on a
similar transportation bond issue are any indication,
many may not respond again this year.
The major thrusts of the proposal are the
funding of essential capital investment programs for
transit and commuter facilites and the financing of
completion of critical highway projects. In addition,
it also includes programs to provide bikeways and
improve marine facilities.
After voters rejected a $2.5 billion transit bond
issue in 1971 by a nearly 2-1 margin, particular care
was taken this year to assure “something for
everyone.” A carefully low-keyed campaign for the
bond issue has been run by Raymond T. Schuler,
transportation commissioner, who has undoubtedly
recalled the prime complaint of two years ago that
too much money was spent on a high-pressure selling
job.
Fixed fares
A big plus for the bond issue this year is the
increasing concern over the energy crisis and
environmental pollution. One of the provisions of
the issue is the fixation of one-way transit and urban
bus fares at 35 cents for the next two years
throughout the state. The bus is more efficient than
the private automobile in terms of passenger miles
per gallon of fuel and produces only about one-tenth
the pollution. Commuter railroad fares will also be
stabilized at the July 1,1973 level through 1975.
The bond issue will apportion $2.1 billion in
state funds for public transportation capital
improvements and $1.4 billion for highways,
bikeways and acquisition of abandoned railroad right

of ways, according to Commissioner Schuler.
Expected additional Federal funds will boost the
total capital program to $12.5 billion.
“We don’t want to leave the impression the
bond issue will serve only to relieve transportation
deficiencies,” the Commissioner said. “We also plan
to carry out recreational and beautification projects.
We will build bike paths in programs co-ordinated

with the State Office of Parks and Recreation and
local groups.”
Opposition to the transit bond issue has come
from many sources. One of the most vocal groups
has been the Citizens Public Expenditures Survey
(CPES). The taxpayer group charges that too little
information has been delivered concerning how the
money will be spent.
According to the New York State Department
of Transportation (NYSDOT), any transportation
projects carried out with bond proceeds must be a
part of, or consistent with, the approved statewide
Master Plan for Transportation. Projects must be
submitted to the Legislature and receive specific
legislative authorization.
One alternative proposal to the Bond Act was to
use an increased gas tax to fund the ghihway
projects. Such a tax, according to the NYSDOT,
would increase the price of gasoline by six cents a
gallon.
Questions have been raised as to why a new
bond issue is needed if funds are still unused from
the 1967 Transportation Bond Act. The few funds
which remain are not “unused” according to the
NYSDOT. They are committed to specific transit
projects under development.
NYSDOT’s only reply to questions about raising
the state’s level of per capita debt, is that in
comparison to other states, New York has one of the
lowest levels of per capita debt. In the past however,
New York has made substantial capital investments
using bond financing.

Money uncertain
State Comptroller Arthur Levitt, while trying to
remain neutral, also has some criticisms of Schuler's
explanation of the bond proposal. “For example,”
one member of Mr. Levitt’s staff explained, “he
[Schuler] says over and over again that it is
impossible to estimate with any acuracy how much
federal money the bond issue will generate.”
“Yet, Schuler says that $1.15 billion in state
bond money for improvements to the New York
City subways will bring in $920 million in federal
money.”
However, in a statement issued by Mr. Schuler,
he assured the comptroller: “It is not our intent to
use bond funds if we cannot obtain the matching
federal aid. The bonds would remain as paper on the
shelf until such time as federal aid is available.”
Labor, which stands to gain millions of
man-days of work from any large building program,
has come out strongly in favor of the plan. The
state’s largest labor organization, the more than two
million member state AFL-CIO, was an early
supporter. In recent days, the Civil Service
Employees Association has also backed the plan.
But the final fate of Proposition Number One,
the 1973 Transportation Captial Facilities Bond Act,
will be decided at the polls tomorrow by the nearly
ten million registered New York State voters.

Progress or disaster
with ConventionCenter
Buffalo voters will decide tomorrow whether or not a $14 million
convention center should be built downtown.
The proposed convention center, which has generated widespread
controversy, has found support among various Buffalo politicians.
Democratic Mayor Stanley Makowski and Republican challenger
Stewart Levy both favor building the center. Mayor Makowski believes
the center will produce additional revenues for the Board of Education
and street repairs, as well as for other city functions.
Lower costs
Mr. Levy favors tHe center, but claims he can reduce its projected
cost from $14 million to $9 million by moving it to a site three blocks
away.

In the race for University District Councilman, the candidates arc
split on the issue. Incumbent Republican Charles Volkert agrees with
Mr. Levy’s position that the Convention Center should be built on the
alternate site. The center will help develop businesses in the city, create
jobs and bring more money into the area, Mr. Volkert believes.
Democratic challenger Bill Price opposes the center, rejecting the
$2.5 million required to purchase the land as too high. He said the
center will benefit only downtown business interests at the expense of
the neighborhoods, which he claims were not adequately consulted on
the issue.
Congressman Jack Kemp, Republican from Hamburg, has endorsed
the center as “an important investment in our community’s future.”
Like other supporters, Mr. Kemp says the center is needed to make
Buffalo “ready for the I980’s.”
Opponents of the center say the $14 million estimate is unrealistic.
They point to the recently-completed center in Niagara Falls which was
expected to cost $4.5 million, but eventually cost $40 million. The city
of Buffalo is also only $40 miljion short of the state-imposed debt
limit, opponents argue, and if the center faces a cost over run, most of
the city’s borrowing capacity will be used to finance the center.
Since Niagara Falls, which is currently undergoing much
rebuilding, already has a new convention center, opponents say the
competition between the already-cmpleted Niagara Falls center and the
proposed Buffalo center would cut revenues. Advocates of the center
point to the convention center recently built in Seattle to help spark
that city’s economy after cuts in aerospace development led to massive
cutbacks at the local Boeing plants.

Campaign of fear
Republican Charles Volkert's campaign for University District
Councilman has degenerated into scare tactics and misrepresentation.
As a result of The Spectrum's editorial endorsement of Democrat Bill
Price as the superior candidate for Councilman, a white sheet is now
circulating: "Student Radicals Back Opponent Price." The Spectrum.
"an ultra-liberal student newspaper," it says, has "revealed Price's
sell-out to the student activists in several recent editorials." Quoting
phrases out-of-oontext to the point of distortion, citing labeled
commentaries as "fact," the sheet tries to portray Mr. Price as aligning
himself with "student radicals" to take over the district.
Ironically, this newspaper's editorial support of Mr. Price did not
describe him as a student-oriented radical, although he is sensitive to
the University's problems, but noted his creative solutions to
community problems. It is truly regrettable that Mr. Volkert has
demeaned himself and his campaign by dredging up old fears of student
riots and attempting to exploit both University and community
emotions. As in 1971 when he accused his opponent of being for
busing," Mr. Volkert has ignored the issues and instead tried to appeal
to people's basest fears and instincts. We believe all the voters, not just
students, should elect Mr. Price tomorrow on his stands on the issues.
Mr. Volkert's last-minute scare tactics should only reinforce that
conclusion.

crisis of leadership in this country has changed. Throughout the months
of hearings, investigations, and disclosures, the central question has
been: "What did President Nixon know, and when did he know it?"
But the depth and magnitude of Mr. Nixon's involvement in the
scandalous activities of his Administration is no longer the central
question ... and it is fast becoming irrelevant.
Instead, the problem has evolved into a crisis of confidence; a
situation where nothing the Chief Executive says is believed. The issue
is no longfTIWT. TtftSSh's guilt, it is his inability to govern. The result of
that inability is that the federal government has grinded to a complete
standstill. This is not only evident on the home front, where the Justice
Department has been ruined, the FBI, CIA and IRS politicized and
demoralized; but poor judgement has created difficulties in foreign
affairs as well. As a result of the U.S. overreaction to the supposed
Soviet Mideast threat with a worldwide nuclear alert, our European
allies are now seriously mistrustful toward us, since we did not bother
to inform them of our plans. And if the Mideast confrontation did not
adequately explode the myth of detente, the recent references to
impeachment possibilites in the controlled Soviet press, which had
conspicuously avoided mentioning Watergate until recently, clearly
indicates the top Soviet leadership is hedging its bets on Mr. Nixon.
In a sense, Watergate has turned into a circus of moves and
counter-moves, of desperate political gambits, but the public's moral
sensibilities have been so shellacked, any shred of Mr. Nixon's
credibility has so completely evaporated, that the political strategies
have degenerated into a theater of the absurd. People still take note of
each new disclosure, each new outrage, but only in the vague sense of
keeping score, for any real meaning has long since vanished. It is so
typically American
instead of purging the government of these
scandalous injustices, we have turned it into a TV show. And while the
orgy of recriminations continues, no constructive purpose is being
served
because the issue is no longer Richard Nixon's guilt but his
total incapacity to govern effectively. It is for this reason alone that he
should be removed from office.
The tragedy has emphasized the shortcomings of our system of
government. Impeachment, the Constitutionally-designed remedy for
misconduct in office, is regarded with awe and apprehension. In stark
contrast, a parliamentary system like the British one provides for the
swift removal of a chief executive in whom the people and the
legislature have lost all trust; a simple vote of no confidence. Under
such a system, not only would Mr. Nixon have been voted out of office
long ago, but President Johnson could have been prevented from
unilaterally continuing the Vietnam War when public and Congressional
opinion turned against that senseless conflict.
Even in a totalitarian state, Mr. Nixon's ouster would have been
engineered much earlier. Only in our unque but cumbersome system
can a President remain in office who no longer enjoys the people's trust
or confidence. This is the situation today; although 60% of the people
think Mr. Nixon has mishandled the Presidency and 33% feel he should
he
be impeached
not to mention his credibility rating of zero
remains in office. Fear of impeachment has been replaced by an even
greater fear of continuing government chaos. Not only The New York
Times but several conservative Midwestern newspapers have called on
Mr. Nixon to resign. Washington politicians are privately hoping he will
resign when Gerald Ford is confirmed as Vice-President. Republican
Congressmen are even discussing how to tell Mr. Nixon he should step
down.
But the Nixonian psychology of “toughing it out," even at the cost
unless
of ripping the country apart, makes resignation unlikely
impeachment proceedings begin or Mr. Nixon realizes that his
impeachment is inevitable. All the time, energy and money behind the
network of Watergate investigations is being misdirected, as the issue of
Mr. Nixon's guilt or innocence became tangential long ago. Congress
and the public must now face the consequences of Mr. Nixon remaining
in office a complete lack of moral and political leadership. Mr. Nixon
and only the
has been forced into every concession he has made

Labor parti/ stance
The Spectrum i Oct. 29 coverage of the Buffalo
mayoral campaign is the kind of Watergate-style
cover-up job one expects from the Buffalo Evening
News or the New York Times To portray
.

Republican joke candidate Stewart Levy as a serious
opponent to Makowski is to deliberately obscure the
point of why Makowski has had to run a “low-key
non-campaign.” Makowski does not campaign
because his only significant opposition, the U.S.
Labor Party campaign of Ira Liebowitz, threatens to
expose him should he ever dare to step out in front
of a working class audience. In both Buffalo and
New York City, Labor Party campaigns have
wrecked Rockefeller's plan to keep the elections
cool and uncontested by imposing Makowski and
Abe Beame as “unity” candidates, the faceless
administrators of austerity bridging all capitalist
factions. The Labor Party’s bold organizing initiative
interventions into Common Council meetings,
public confrontations with Makowski, and militant
marches through ghetto and working class
neighborhoods
(all of which went unreported by
the “objective” Spectrum ), have successfully stirred
up ferment around the real campaign issues.
—

-

These issues include Rockefeller’s latest moves
to take over the city government through an

expanding network of domestic CIA
counterinsurgency operations. The recent
installment of an admitted Army Counterintelligence
operative, Captain William GwizdOwski, as head of
the Union-busting Gestapo-like “no-show job”
Probe, confirmed our charge that Makowski is a
mere stand-in while Rocky and his agents in the
government intelligence apparatus consolidate their
control. Engineered over a period of years by the

“former” CIA agent Aifreda Slominski, the Probe is
a
capitalist
scheme for spreading a
turn-in-your-neighbor self-policing psychology
among Buffalo’s working population. Makowski
implements the other half of Rocky’s anti-labor
onslaught. It is a notorious scandal in Buffalo that
1,000 welfare victims arc being forced to, work at
city jobs to replace attrited unionized workers at
below-union pay and that they are used as scabs in
the steel, auto, and other private industries as well
Add to this Makowski’s acting as Rocky’s
mouthpiece in pushing the transit and convention
center bond boondoggles, looting working class
taxpayers of billions of dollars in debt payments to
the banks (at least $4 billion in interest will be paid
on the transit bond alone!) and who can doubt that
Makowski is Rockefeller’s puppet?

mention that the Edward's Building, presently on
the proposed site, yields an annual revenue of
$140,000 to the city; it would also need to be
demolished. The center could be constructed at a
site already owned by the city, near to the proposed
location, at a considerable reduction in cost.
Additionally, the Buffalo convention center would
have to compete for business with the successful
Niagara Falls convention center.
Buffalo has only to borrow $40 million more
before it exceeds the state imposed debt limit.
Should this money be spent on a facility that would
primarily serve business interests? C.A.C. feels that
the city’s priorities should rather be in the areas of
education, low cost housing, pollution, parks and
other human needs. With this in mind, we urge all
Buffalo voters to vote NO on the Convention Center
Bond Issue, Local Issue I.

To the Editor.
On November 6, 1973, Buffalo city voters will

have the opportunity to vote upon a Convention
Center Bond Issue. According to those who urge its
passage, the proposed convention center will cost
only $14 million, create 1,000 permanent jobs and
provide needed revenue for the city’s coffers.
Community Action Corps believes that this is not an
accurate representation of the issue.
As noted, the proposed center is estimated to
cost $14 million. However, there is no ceiling on the
money to be spent on the project. In other words,
inflation and externalities may bring the cost of
construction far above that figure. For example, the

I would like to make a few comments on the
appearance of Lester Maddox Thursday night. In his
presentation, Maddox used a familiar technique
employed by individuals speaking before a basically
unsympathetic audience. This was to turn the whole
affair into a carnival to express his views in a series
of “jokes” with the aaim of getting his listeners off
their guard, and making otherwise repugnant
positions seem more palatable to them. An example
of this was his response to a question about the
“ax-handle” incident, in which he replied that he
had used pick-ax handles rather than ax-handles,
since “ax-handles are too light and you can’t get
nothin’ done with ’em.” The audience roared with
laughter, apparently not bothering to visualize the

I would also like to comment on the
performance of the so-called “left” on this campus,

groups did not even bother to show up, at a situation
in which over a thousand people were listening to
Hitlerite ideas. Those that did show up confined
their activities to shouting comments, or holding up
banners denouncing racism. No one from these
groups got up during the question period to present
a principled criticism of the views that Maddox was
espousing. In the absence of this, Maddox was able
to easily manipulate the questions of smart-alecks.

the frame-up of the Labor Party
mayoral candidate, Ira Liebowitz, and Labor Party
organizer Donald Roth. At the height of the Labor
Party’s exposure of the CIA activities in Buffalo,
Rockefeller sought the aid of helpful “Communist”
Party police informers in securing
13-count
indictments against Liebowitz and Roth, including
charges of “inciting to riot,” felonious assault, and
possession of dangerous weapons. One of the
“Communists” pressing charges is Donald Sullivan,
an employee of Makowski’s Human Relations
Commission planted in the CP!
Nationwide battle lines are being drawn between
the socialist organizing of the Labor Party on the
one hand and the capitalist-CIA enforcers of
depression austerity on the other. The Labor Party is
building a working class machine to defend workers’
living standards beyond the present elections and to
establish a socialist government in the 1970’s. We
urge all students and faculty to get out and vote for
the Labor Party candidates, Ira Liebowitz for Mayor

�The Max Lerner Column
by Max Lemer
Americans are now thinking the unthinkable.
That is the psychological breakthrough
experienced in recent days and weeks.
Impeachment was for a long time only an outside
possibility. It has now become a probability.
It may well soon reach the point where it is
all but irreversible. That point will be reached not
when the House Judiciary Committee releases its
impeachment report, but when most of the
American people grow convinced that nothing
President Nixon can say or do will ever put
together the Humpty Dumpty pieces in which his
credibility now lies shattered.
How did this happen? It was long in
preparing, but the denouement came swiftly. The
firing of Archibald Cox, the framing and
abandonment of the scheme centering on Sen.
John Stennis, the backtracking on whether to
surrender the tapes to the courts, the shift on
appointing another special prosecutor, the angry
Nixon attacks on the media, the leaking of the
story of Mr. Nixon’s pressures in the ITT case,
the revelation that two crucial Nixon tapes had
not been “recorded”: These items have added up
mightily in the public mind.
What may happen soon, if it has not
happened already, is that most people, their
capacity for belief stretched beyond tolerance by
the battering of unbelievable events, will fall into
utter disbelief.
This will spell the start of the irreversible

To the Editor.

To say the least, I was somewhat dismayed to
read your editorial endorsement of William Price for
University District Councilman in today’s The
Specturm.
Particularly disturbing was your citing of thee
Buffalo Evening News in a context which would
indicate that paper’s lack of support for incumbent
Councilman Charles A. Volkert. As you must know,
but have neglected to tell your readers, the News last

week endorsed Mr. Volkert’s bid for re-election.
Your omission of that information is misleading and
can only be labelled irresponsible.
in your editorial, Mr. Volkert is cast as a villain
for having spoken in favor of the housing ordinance
in March, T972. But should he really be so severely
castigated for having spoken that way in the wake of
the student riots of the late sixties and early
seventies, at a time when the town-gown rift was far
more acute than it is today? His stand of tha issue
hhas after all, softened since, and he is genuinely
concerned about the students who are now being
exploited by absentee landlords.
As for terming Mr. Volkert’s record for the past

process. How it will end is another question. The
managers of the anti-Nixon case in the House will
have to find something other, and more, than the
firing of Cox as proof of Mr. Nixon’s “high
crimes and misdemeanors.” While politically
tricky and morally indefensible, it was probably
within the President’s constitutional powers.
Instead, the anti-Nixon managers are likely
to pile up a roster of charges, such as the leaked
story about Mr. Nixon, former Atty. Gen.
Richard G. Kleindienst and ITT. If there are
enough of them, their combined weight may
more than counterbalance the reluctance to

plunge the nation into an impeachment struggle.
Meanwhile, the digging continues, and some
single flashing charge may emerge to make all the
rest coalesce into a total unified case.
On the President’s side there will be five
influences working against the thrust of events 1
have described. To use abbreviations for each,
they are forgetting, Ford, foreign policy, media
and divisiveness.
-On forgetting: There is the recognized fact
that just as public thinking has a capacity to get
inflamed by a roster of outrages, so it has the
capacity to forget to go blank by too much of
it and fall into a kind of numbness and cynicism.
There have been widespread signs of this

advantage.

The recent editorial endorsement of William
Price for University District Councilman can only be
characterized as a masterpiece of mendacity and an
indication of the bad faith which has distinguished
Howie Kurtz’ regime as editor.
To begin with, Kurtz’ savagely irrational
indictment of incumbent Councilman Volkert
totally fails to note that 1) the Councilman’s
insistence upon housing ordinances is motivated by
concern for the health and welfare of area residents,
including students; 2) his attendance and
participation record as a councilman is one of the
best in the Council and evidences a full-time
commitment to his responsibilities; 3) his business
involvements show him to be a man of civic concern
rather than the arch-ogre capitalist dreaded by the
editor; and 4) his service to his constituents is more
aptly recorded in the pages of 'community
newspapers than in the ignorant diatribes of said
editor.
Especially- reprehensible on the part of the latter

two years “dismal,” nothing is farther from the
truth. His attendance record for coucil meetings has
been over 95%. Moreover, while his opponent has
been busy trying to peddle his utopian dreams,
Councilman Volkert has gotten things accomplished

for all segments of his constituency for the welfare
of the University District as a whole.
One final point should be mentioned. You say
of Mr. Volkert: “His idea of co-operation with
|U.B.| is to make occasional contact with Dr.
Ketter’s office.” Early in September, Mr. Volkert
was scheduled to give a non-political, informational
a talk which
orientation talk in the Haas Lounge
had to be cancelled because of a disappointingly
poor student turn-out. Yet here was the perfect
forum for any dissatisfied student to talk with the
councilman in an informal setting.
I am confident that Mr. Volkert will continue to
work dilligently on behalf of University District
residents if re-elected, and I urge students and other
members of the U.B. community to support him in
Tuesday’s election.

To the Editor.

Gerald Ford, when his nomination is confirmed
and if Mr. Nixon is impeached, will prove a weak
reed on which to rest the awesome burden of
presidential responsibilities. This, too, can
operate in Mr. Nixon’s favor.
-On foreign policy crises: There will be
many who feel that, with the Mideast crisis and
the difficult years ahead in relations with Russia
and China, there will have to be a strong,
knowledgeable team running foreign policy.
Otherwise, we may find ourselves with an
unconscionable President out of the way by
impeachment, but with a foreign policy in chaos.
-On the media; Mr. Nixon is clearly trying
to use the method that Agnew used effectively,
both early and late in his Vice Presidency, in
rallying the widespread, latent antimedia
bitterness to his support. This is dangerous for
the nation, but he may be desperate enough to
use it.
—On divisiveness: Even if a majority of the
people decide to go along with an impeachment
resolution by the House, the nation is bound to
be thrown into turmoil in the process a turmoil
that could in turn be used against it by internal
demagogues or by the Soviets.
I don’t find these adding up to a conclusive
case against impeachment. But I have set down
the trends that may move irreversibly to
impeachment, and also the forces that Mr. Nixon
can still use. If we are to act, we need to face the
probable consequences of our actions.

opposition to the Councilman’s re-election, when
actually the News has endorsed Mr, Volkert. Here
Mr. Kurtz is simply a malicious liar, one somewhat
akin to the candidate he has been supporting

Out of the closet has bounded Mr. Kurtz,
trailing clouds of bad faith promises behind him, to

Bill Price, who grandiloquently

Halloween dying?
To the Editor

On behalf of my roommates, several friends and
myself, all of whom noticed and were distressed by
this problem, I would like to express our collective
disappointment over what seems to have happened
to the fine holiday of Halloween.
This is the first year I am living off campus. In
the middle of October, I realized this would be my
first Halloween in my own house and I really started
to get psyched for it. I bought the biggest pumpkin I
could find and my friend went to great pains to
skillfully carve it into a Jack-o-lantern. I also bought
enough candy bars and lollipops for an army ofkids.
Halloween night came and we waited, waited,
and waited. Finally at 9:30 our first trick or treater
came. The little fellow must have been about 3 years

old. His mother was with him, if for no other reason
than the fact that he wasn’t tall enough to ring the
bell. We were so glad to see him we must have given
him half a dozen candy bars and lollipops. But his
was the last painted face and constumed body that
we saw.
It just seemed to my friends and I what a shame
that today’s kids should be missing thi£ wonderful
experience, which we always enjoyed so much. Of
course we do live close to Main Street and it is
possible that some mothers told their children to
keep away from that big, nasty road. However, no
one we spoke to had a very big turnout. It just seems
that the holiday is dying and it’s a damn shame.
Of course pur pumpkin was thoroughly
destroyed which we completely expected. At least
one thing about Halloween hasn’t changed.

�Marriage

Focus on special problems
by Bruce Engel
Contributing Editor

Editor’s note: This is the second of a two-part series on the
lifestyle of the married student athlete. Today’s
installment is a case study of the only married athlete on a
Buffalo varsity team, wrestler Jerry Nowakowski.
“We were married on September 2 lait year, and
school started the fifth, so we came right to Buffalo. 1
didn’t have a job, Cheryl didn’t have a job for three weeks.
The first three months were really terrible. We have to live
on lawn furniture for a while.”
These were Buffalo wrestler Jerry Nowakowski’s
comments regarding the first few days of his marriage to
his high school sweetheart Cheryl. The first two years of
wedlock are being complicated by Jerry’s studies, as well
as his wrestling career. Nowakowski was an Eastern
Regional champion last season. They were married after
Jerry’s two years at Allegheny Community College.
Cheryl, 21, went to work right after she graduated high
school in Harbor Creek, Pennsylvania. Jerry, 22, is now a
senior physical education major, :
At the start, until Jerry started working, it was pretty
tough. He owed money and it was si* months before they
were in decent shape. “I guess we were living on love
then,” said Jerry. “We didn’t have much else.”
“The best part about it is that it’s behind us,” added
Cheryl.
,

.

More money, less rent
The Nowakowskis’ financial situation has improved
considerably since those early days. Cheryl’s job in the
Master Charge billing department at Marine Midland bank
brings home nearly $400 a month. Jerry manages to
supplement that income by working IS hours a week in
the Clark Hall equipment room and another 15 hours
teaching physical education at Gateway House, a school
for mentally and socially disturbed children.
Nonetheless, the Nowakowski’s have decided to move
from North Buffalo to an apartment downtown, not far
from the Peace Bridge. Their old home was only slightly
larger and very hard to heat. ‘The neighborhood is not as
good and the place is a little smaller, but in the winter
months, the r$nt and heat should come to half the old
place/’ rtldTeisy.
Socially, the Nowakowskis find it easy to relate to

their married friend* in Harbor Creek, Jerry’s tingle
teammate*, the people Cheryl work* with, and even Jerry’*
friends from the motorcycle racing circuit. Racing his bike
is rapidly becoming Jerry’s favorite pasttime. Cheryl
enjoys the sport, and doesn’t worry as long as she can see
him. “It’s fun and it’s different,” she said.
They manage to go out every weekend until the
wrestling season starts. During the season they can’t,
however, and Jerry is often away on weekends. “It bothers
me a little not to go out,” said Cheryl. “But I know it
[wrestling) is important to him. Of course, I don’t sleep
real good when he’s gone.” Last year she stayed with Sue
Policarc (former wrestler Tony’s wife) on extended road
trips, but since Tony’s graduation, the Policares have
moved.
Cheryl doesn’t mind supporting her husband and
would no doubt be working anyway. Both of them want
to save money to purchase land in a few years. However,
Cheryl looks forward to the future and a more stable life.
“Actually it doesn’t bother me as much as last year, when
things were so tight. We both grew up a lot last year.”
Wife biggest fan
Rather than wishing that Jerry didn’t wrestle, Cheryl
is undoubtedly his biggest fan. She actually gets mad at
him if he does something wrong on the mat. “I’m very
proud of his wrestling until he messes up, like if somebody
reverses him or something,” she said. Despite what seems
to be an Evil Knievel complex (Jerry not only wrestles and
races, but polevaults as well), Cheryl insists she never
worries until something actually goes wrong. “I don’t
worry much, but I do get terribly excited. When your
husband is out there, you can just sit and watch,” she
added.

Jerry is convinced that both his wife and his marriage
have had positive effects on both his wrestling and his
school work. “When I’m on the mat I don’t want to look
bad in front of her. And it’s nice to have someone to come
home to who understands my problems.”
Regarding school work, Cheryl has proved to be both
an incentive and an aid. “If I wasn’t married, I wouldn’t
care about good grades,” Jerry conjectured. “I’d probably
just go out every night. But now I know I have to get good
grades and get a job.” His wife also lightens his burdens by
doing some of his typing and paying the bills, he stressed.

It

seems

the

Nowakowskis have handled

their

problems and are thriving in what might have been a very

hard life. Jerry likes the Buffalo area and would enjoy

teaching here after he graduates, while Cheryl would prefer
to go back to Pennsylvania. Realistically, Jerry will have to
accept the best job he can get, wherever it is. He would
definitely like to coach wrestling. Jerry is also considering
working with disturbed children or doing some graduate
work. Ultimately they’d like to have 10 or 15 acres of land

somewhere to settle down.
Commenting on the coach’s view that marriage can be
a stabilizing experience, although it may be very hard to be
a student athlete and married at the same time, Jerry said:
“It depends on the people. Cheryl really knows what
money is. Getting married when we did was a lot to ask,
but it worked out all right.”

praised the University’s Law

the progressive aspects of prison

that much of his staff holds

Commenting on problems at
the State University of Buffalo,
Mr. Amico said the school “was
the center of substantial drug
activity some years ago,” but he
believes “the problem has now
resolved itself.” He further
believes the school is now
“substantially drug-free,” even
though a short time ago there
were many drug peddlers on
campus. At the present time there
are no investigations of drug
activity being conducted at the
University, but if a complaint is
made, the Sheriffs Department
will step in.
Along with a decrease in drug
activity at the University, Sheriff

�H ockey Bulls win
se ason opener, 7-4
by Dave Geringer
Sports Editor

KENT, Ohio Repeating last
season’s opening victory, the
hockey Bulls started their
1973-74 season Friday night with
a 7-4 victory at Kent State.
Buffalo bested the Clippers by an
identical score last year.
The game was not as close as
the score might indicate, with
Buffalo drawing to 4-1 and 6-2
leads after the first and second
periods, respectively. Three of the
four Clipper goals came on power
plays, none lasting longer then 49
seconds.
“1 know our power play was
good,” agreed Clipper coach Doii
Lumley. “We only worked on our
power play and penalty killing
two days this week.” It’s all
mental on the power play
you
have to keep your guys in a box
(formation used against power
plays in the defensive zone). If
your guys get sucked out of
position by the puck carrier, it
kills the box. Your guys got
sucked out and ours didn’t,”
Lumley added.
Buffalo coach Ed Wright
reported that lack of work had
hurt Buffalo. “It’s [penalty
killing] something we haven’t had
a chance to work on. We looked
very bad on man short
-

-

situations.”

Soccer

Officials Norm Schuette and
Lou Cote overlooked countless
penalties, calling only six until the
final five minutes of the contest.
The tempo of the game became
increasingly rougher, nearly
breaking into brawls in several
instances. “It makes me feel good
that right now I don’t think we
can be intimidated by anyone,”
assessed Wright. “Since hockey is
a game of intimidation, you’re at
an advantage if you are the
intimidator. I think this kind of
game does something for your
confidence,” continued the Bull
coach. ‘To be involved in a rough
contest and to know that you can
handle yourself when the going
gets rough Will help.”
Wright praised the play of the
Chuck Davies-Rick
Wolstenholme-Mike Klym line.
‘The gold line played excellent
positional hockey,” affirmed
Wright. ‘They utilized their wings
and used the total ice surface.”
Right wing Mike Klym, who
tallied a goal and three assists
attributed his new style of play
(emphasizing passing rather than
shooting) to televised hockey
games. “I watch the games on
TV,” said Klym, “and I say I
should play that way.” The Bulls
will put their 1-0 record on the
line against Bowling Green Friday
and Saturday nights at Twin
Rinks.

’72 roles reversed
In a reversal of their 1972
roles, the top-seeded Albany
soccer team scored a 3-1 decision
over the Bulls, dashing Buffalo’s
hope of annexing the 1973
Chancellor’s Cup. Last year,
top-seeded Buffalo opened the
first annual SUNY Center
T ournament by knocking off
fourth-seeded Albany, 3-1.

area before
the ball» was kicked, apparently
negating the goal. The violation
went unnoticed by the referees,
however, and the “discussion”
that followed between the
officials and Buffalo head coach
Sal Esposito resulted in Esposito’s
early exodus from the playing

Binghamton’s host Colonials
opened the day’s action with an
unimpressive 4-0 victory against
third-seeded Stony Brook. Playing
under clear skies, but on a damp,
sloped field, the Colonials, 9-2 for
the season and ranked eighth in
New York State, tallied a pair of
goals in each half to advance to

‘These officials had no guts at
all,” commented Esposito
afterwards. “I came here to win a
ballgame, not for two officials to
mess up our efforts. I would have
been less than fair if I hadn’t said
what I did.” Esposito’s other
remarks were less than

Buffalo dominated play early
in their contest and opened the
scoring just five minutes into the
game. Jim Young stripped an
Albany halfback from the ball at

midfield and broke in all alone on
Danes goalie Henry Obwald. The
goal was Young’s ninth of the
season and marked the fifth
consecutive game in which he had
scored; both are school records.
The goal seemed to ignite Albany,
as the Danes fired nineteen shots
at Buffalo goalie Frank Daddario,
scoring with less than ten minutes
left in the half to knot the score
at

1-1.

The Danes, assisted greatly by
a series of poor calls by officials
Ed Daub and Bruce Theobald,
took the lead for good just eight
minutes into the second half on a
disputed penalty kick. Buffalo
halfback Chuck Santa Maria had
apparently stolen the ball from
Albany right wing Pasquale
Petriccione, but the officials ruled
that Santa Maria had tripped the
Danes forward in the penalty area.
On the ensuing penalty kick,
the Danes’ Wayne Garroway

entered the penalty

area.

complimentary regarding the
quality of the officiating.
Albany coach Bill Schiesselin’s
opinion of the officiating
concurred with that of Esposito.
“I think the quality of officiating
in the first game was much

better,” said Schiesselin. The Bulls
faced Stony Brook in Saturday’s
consolation game, followed by the
A lb any-Binghamton
championship game.

Awaited EOF checks arrive
after quiet protest of BSU
by Larry Kraftowitz
and Amy Dunkin

A large number of students in
the Equal Opportunity Program
be
receiving
(EOF)
will
long-awaited financial grants this
week, culminating a week of quiet
protest by the Black Student
Union (BSU).

BSU first became aware of the
funds shortage on October 16
when several students complained
they had not yet received any
money and would probably be
compelled to leave school. At a

students
organized a committee to find out
what had caused delays in the
grants of 238 black students.
“We felt this was part of a
financial genocide move to push
blacks off this campus,” claimed
Larry Williams, head of BSU.
Later that day, 40 students
went to Hayes Hall to present a
list of verbal demands to President
Robert Ketter.
The demands were:
Immediate payment of EOF

Immediate action by the
Search Committee to find a new

Administration liason
With Student Association (SA)
President Jon Dandes serving as
liason between the Administration
and EOP students, an additional
meeting was arranged last Tuesday
between Mr. Williams, Dr. Baumer
and Dr. Somit. The administrators
acquiesced to the BSU demand
that the Search Committee find a
new EOP director by December 1,
with one representative from BSU
and one from the Puerto Rican
student organization (PODER)
serving on the committee.

in
choosing a new EOP director. Dr.
Somit said that under the state’s
Affirmative Action Equal Job

was required to be posted tor

the application period had ended
and hoped the research committee
would designate a permanent
director by December 1. However,

Additionally, an agreement was

reached whereby EOP students
would be allowed to form a
representative body to speak
solely for EOP students, even
though BSU would still remain a

member of SA.

Request rejected
The Administration rejected
the students’ request that they be
allowed to set up a committee to
search through pertinent financial
records to see what had caused
the mix-up. “They wouldn’t know

‘The Financial Aid records are

Despite their highly favorable
internal evaluations, “most people

�BSU leader
arraigned

Black Student Union (BSU) leader Larry Williams was
arraigned' in court Wednesday on charges of harrassment and
resisting arrest.
Mr. Williams was stopped for a routine search by a Campus
Security officer on the night of October 25, and he became
verbally abusive, according to director of Campus Security Pat
Glennon. When the officer insisted on seeing his license, Mr.
Williams allegedly attempted to strike him. The officer repeated his
request and Mr. Williams lashed out for the second time, Mr.
Glennon said. Mr. Williams has denied this version of the incident.
Conflicting stories
Mr. Williams claimed that after showing the officer his license,
he asked him if there was anything else he wanted. The officer then
threatened to arrest him for harassment, and Mr. Williams said he

started “walking away from him. There was no reason to stay
because I couldn’t win,” Mr. Williams said. “As I was walking away,
he came up from behind me and tried to hold me down. We had a
tussle and when I fell to the ground, someone stepped on my arm.”
Mr. Williams said he was then handcuffed, arrested and booked at
the 16th precinct. He was booked at the 16th precinct and bailed
out later that night for $250.
The Progressive Labor Party (PLP) protested Mr. Williams’
arrest at a rally Friday, accusing the Administration of racism and
“financial genocide.” PLP members contended the Administration
“wants to get rid of guys like Larry Williams because it is scared to
death that others will follow his militant leadership.” However,
several administrators have insisted that Mr. Williams’ arrest was
not connected in any way to either racism or his involvement in the
Educational Opportunity Program (EOP) dispute.

Sexuality: pervading component in us all

“Sexuality is part of a person’s total
identity. the male/female sexual being is
inextricably woven with a person’s
activities
even the way we walk and
talk,” said James Serpiglia, clinical
psychiatrist at Meyer Memorial Hospital.
This talk was the second in a series of
workshops on human sexuality sponsored
by the life Workshops. Ann Loretan, head
nurse of a mental health ward in Meyer'
Hospital, assisted Dr. Serapiglia in a
discussion of the psychological aspects of
human sexuality before a near-capacity
crowd in Norton Union Tuesday evening.

Serapiglia showed how heavily influenced

Parents, as agents of culture, rear
children to adhere to societal norms. The
male part of sexuality is often equated
with aggressiveness, while the female part is
associated with passivity. “Direct teaching
by parents reinforces distinctly masculine
or feminine achievements,” said Dr.
Serapiglia. Of primary importance is the
sexual adequacy of the parent who
provides the model for the sexuality of the
child of the same sex,” he continued, citing

The presentation focused on sexuality,
as opposed to sex; how attitudes toward
sexuality are formed; and how these
attitudes are changing. Dr. Serapiglia
defined sexuality as “a component of a
person’s identity which pervades a person’s
experience of himself.” Thus, he explained,

situations which are not

More awareness

Oriental view, by contrast, “sees sexuality
as an art.”
More specific ways in which culture
conveys attitudes toward sexuality can be
seen in the structure of the language and
the relationship Of parents to their
children. “English,” said Dr. Serapiglia,
“shows the difficulty with which we deal
with sexual activities and feelings.” On the
one hand, we have words which graphically
describe the act, portray it as obscenity,
and convey the attitudes of “dirty” and
“bad.” The more “proper” terms are often
long and difficult to pronounce, and not
usually found in the vocabulary of the
layman. Dr. Serapiglia also noted an
absence of verbs to portray sexuality, and
the use of the passive, rather than the
active tense, in describing sexual axts. The
audience laughed in response to his

maintained
that
neither
heterosexuality nor homosexuality is
abnormal. Both can be normal or abnormal
depending on how well the behavior and
relationships of the individual are
integrated into the person’s perception of
self. Normal sexuality exists when sexual
feelings and behavior “are consistent with,
and flow smoothly from, a person’s
perception of self.” It involves a
relationship “between consenting adults

citing the recent integration of professional
courses concerning sexuality with medical
programs. Previously, the family doctor
had only his own experiences to rely on,
“which could amount to anything.” Noting
the existence of seminars dealing with the
topic, she pointed out to the audience:
‘Ten years ago you probably wouldn’t
have been sitting here.”
Increasing numbers of articles in the lay
press reflect interest in, and changing
attitudes toward, sexuality, said Ms.
Lorenton. The Christian attitude has
undergone a recent change in viewing
sexuality as a way of showing warmth
toward others and desiring to feel needed
by others, she said. Previously, procreation
had been viewed as the only legitimate
value of intercourse in marriage.
The “workshop” aspect of the evening’s
program came at the end of the
presentation. Three smaller groups were
formed-to enable members of the audience
to exchange personal views concerning
sexuality, or to react to ideas presented in
the lecture. Resourse people were present
in each group, to facilitate discussion and
answer any technical questions.

Appropriateness questioned

“Should the entire wall on the first floor be a
market place?” is the question being considered by
House Council director David Simon. The coat check
room, although presently unused, is a “prime space
in Norton,” according to Mr. Simon. Therefore, any
decision about ‘Appropriateness” should be made
carefully, he feels. House Council is considering
asking a group from the Environmental Design
Department to examine the space and determine its
optimal uses and how the space will be transformed.
Other groups such as Schussmeisters Ski Club,
the Norton Ticket Office, the candy counter and
others have also asked for the space. A gallery might
also be an appropriate use of the space, suggested
Mr. Simon. “We don’t want to keep the Record

Increased service
“We want to expand so that we can provide a
full service to students, like any record store,” added
Mr. Parker. The Co-op plans to increase their stock
when they move, as well as offer classical records,
used records and tapes. In addition, the operating
hours will also increase so that services can be
extended to Millard Fillmore College students and to
weekend shoppers.
“Our business suffers because we are out of the
mainstream,” said Mr. Parker, referring to the
Union’s heavy first floor traffic. “However, we
foresee at least a tripling in our volume if we move.”
An increase in volume would enable the Co-op to
reduce their album prices for $3.40 to $3.30 or
$3.25.

Timetable
Nixonforbade ITT appeals

President Nixon personally ordered former
Attorney General Richard Kleindienst not to press
several antitrust actions against International
Telephone and Telegraph (ITT), The New York
Times revealed Tuesday.
Mr. Nixon telephoned Mr. Kleindienst in 1971
and directed him not to appeal an ITT ruling to the
Supreme Court, sources quoted by The Times
allegedly stemming from secret Kleindienst
testimony, indicated. Stopping the appeal resulted in
an out-of-court settlement between the Government
and ITT generally regarded as favorable to the
conglomerate. This settlement followed an ITT
agreement to help finance the 1972 Republican
convention with gifts reportedly ranging from
$100,000 to $400,000. This is the first time that a
Government official has said Mr. Nixon personally
intervened on behalf of ITT in the antitrust case. Mr.
Kelindienst refused comment on The Times report.
'Ultimate cover-up’
Decrying the leak of confidential information as
“inexcusable,” the White House said President Nixon
had every right to intervene in the ITT case due to
his legitimate interest in directing “antitrust policy.”
Meanwhile, fired Special Prosecutor Archibald Cox
said Mr. Nixon’s refusal to turn over additional
Watergate tapes or documents would constitute a
“cover-up” of possible wrongdoing. Asked during
Senate testimony whether that could be called the
“ultimate cover-up,” Mr. Cox said: “I have no
quarrel with your characterization.”
Both Mr. Cox and acting Attorney General
Robert Bork have said that any new special
prosecutor appointed by Mr. Nixon must have full
authority to seek Presidential documents and tapes;
Mr. Nixon maintains the new appointee will not have
the authority to sue the President for those
materials. Opinion polls reported the public favored
an independent special prosecutor, apart from the
executive branch, by a 2-to-l margin. Mr. Nixon

Vulgar names
According to The Times sources, Mr.
Kleindienst received a call from former domestic
advisor John Ehrlichman in 1971 asking that the
Justice Department stop its appeal in the ITT case.
Mr. Kleindienst responded that he could not stop the
appeal because it had been recommended by the
department’s Antitrust Division and approved by the
Solicitor General. A short time later, President
Nixon called and, after calling Mr. Kleindienst a

�Charle D. Breitel is running on the Republican

Thomas Dewey in the Manhattan District Attorney’s
office.
Unlike his Democratic opponent. Judge Breitel
did not have to battle through an expensive June
primary for his party’s nomination. He has often
expressed his displeasure with the necessity of
campaigning for a judicial post. Mr. Brcitel’s
approach has been deliberately low-key; he has tried
to let his judicial reputation speak for itself.
Emphasizing the need for familiarty with the judicial
aspects of the law, he claimed that his position on
the Court of Appeals makes him “eminently”
qualified. He has already had experience in the
workings of the Court, he stressed, and has proven
his ability to do the job.
Breitel has cross party support
Judge Breitel interprets his widespread
cross-party support as an affirmation of his ability.
Conversely, he sees the meager support afforded his
opponent as verification that he is not the man for
the job. Expressing concern that the election would
be determined by high-pressure campaign tactics, he
has strongly opposed such practices. He has,
however, stepped up his advertising in the last few
weeks in an effort to compensate for the large
amount of publicity generated by last June’s
Democratic primary.
Judge Breitel’s approach to the issue of judicial
reform is to update the entire court structure. He
advocates combining the Surrogate, Claims, County

and Family courts with the State Supreme Court in
order to form a more workable unit and lend
prestige to these lower courts. Mr. Breitel spoke
about the widely-publicized reforms instituted in the
Civil Courts of the City of New York in his. recent
speech at John Lord O’Brian Hall. Those reforms
were designed to make every judge responsible for a
set number of cases and took measures to insure that
those cases would be heard. Praising the reforms for
enabling the Civil Court to erase an immense backlog
of cases, Judge Breitel qualified his support of the
system: “Quicker justice is not necessarily better
justice.” He would adopt that program elsewhere
only if he were sure it would not compromise the
standards of the courts.
Supports non-partisan commission
Most of a judge’s work is done outside the
courtroom, Judge Breitel stressed. “Long hours are
spent researching material and reviewing matter
placed before the court,” he said. ‘The number of
hours actually spent in the courtroom are not
reflective of the amount of effort being put into the
case by a judge.” He is not an “apologist for the
court,” Mr. Breitel said, but he “knows” what is
wrong with the courts and would take action to
correct those mistakes.
Mr. Breitel supports a “non-partisan”
commission to examine judicial appointments as well
as a review board to examine misconduct charges
against judges. The review board would have the
power to take disciplinary action.
When questioned whether someone other than a
judge would be in a better position to affect change
in the courts, Judge Breitel replied: “Are you going
to have the nurses run the hospitals and perform the
surgery?” Judicial and governmental experience is a
must for any reformer, he claimed.
Judge Breitel’s experience does not include
court administration. The function of running the
courts is the responsibility of the Court
Administrator, he noted, who is appointed by the
Chief Judge. Mr. Breitel estimates that the Chief
Judge would spend about 80 per cent ofhis time on
matters directly related to court proceedings.
Administrative experience is only a secondary factor
for the job, he said.

Fuchsberg provides
lawyer's perspective
Jacob Fuchsberg is the Democratic candidate
Chief Judge of the New York State Court of
Appeals. Mr. Fuchsberg spoke at John Lord O’Brian
Hall on October 15. He has become a controversial
figure over questions of campaign tactics and judicial

qualifications.

A New York City-based trial lawyer specializing

field and has amassed a large personal fortune. In
addition to his practice, he has published several
widely-used legal texts, served on the Legal
Committee of the Office of Economic Opportunity
for eight years, and presided over the New York
State Trial Lawyer’s Association. Mr. Fuchsberg has
gained exposure in the past through some of the
controversial cases he has handled, among them the
famous case of Baby Lenore. However, he has not
held a judgeship in the past.
Mr. Fuchsberg has attempted to portray himself
as a “Chief,” a man who is capable of taking charge
of the situation and getting things done. He is
seeking to institute reforms that he considers
desperately needed. Responding to the allegations
that his lack of judicial experience should disqualify
him from the job,Mr. Fuchsberg noted the judiciary
has been slow in bringing itself up to date, remaining
idle while the problems of the courts grew
continually worse. He considers himself “new
blood” that would rejuvenate the courts. Regarding
the necessary qualifications fo. Chief Judge, Mr.
Fuchsberg said; “The experience y .m need is in life,
in law; not sitting on your hind quarters for thirty
years while things just drifted.”
Small time spent in court
Mr. Fuchsberg looks at the problem of court
reform from a lawyer’s perspective. He pointed to a
recent report, which stated the average daily amount
of time spent by judges in one of New York City’s
courts was only three hours and twenty minutes, as
one of the major causes of tie-ups in the courts. He
favors the establishment of a review commission
which would examine the record of each judge
periodically and weed out the “lazy” and
“incompetent” ones. The Democratic hopeful
supported his plan by referring to the practice of the
Civil Court of the City of New York, where a
program making each judge responsible for a set
number of cases succeeded in clearing up a backlog
of many thousands of cases.
Mr. Fuchsberg has not received the endorsement

of any of the state’s major newspapers, nor has he
gotten enthusiastic support from most leading
Democrats. S6me Democrats have gone so far as to
throw their support to the opposition candidate.
Many of the state’s Bar Associations have opposed
Mr. Fuchsberg, and some have even questioned his
credentials. He is, however, supported by the New
York State Trial Lawyer’s Association, which is one
of the largest legal organizations in the state.
Mr. Fuchsberg has countered his difficulties
with a large personally-financed advertising campaign
aimed at the voting public. This campaign has made
the general public aware of the race for Chief Judge
and familiarized theih with the Jacob Fuchsberg’s
name. His opponent has accused Mr. Fuchsberg of
trying to sell himself “like he was a bar of soap.”

Dignity questioneed
Many leading figures within the judiciary have
taken offense at the Democrat’s campaign tactics
and deemed them unbecoming to the office. Mr.
Fuchsberg maintains that his opponent’s charges
regarding the “dignity” of his campaign is merely
“sloganeering.” His advertisements have listed his
qualifications and past experience, he emphasized,
claiming that his aim is to inform the public. He has
never come out and said “Vote for Jacob
Fuchsberg,” he stressed, but rather gives reasons why
people should vote for him. Mr. Fuchsberg said his
opponent’s judicial philosophy is, “judges should be
seen and not heard.”
Lacking the backing of any political “machine”
state, Mr. Fuchsberg has resorted to using his
the
in
own personal money to finance his election. He is
proud of this fact and said; “This shows that 1 am
not responsible to any political bosses.” He claimed
his opponent is receiving financial backing from Gov.
Rockefeller as well as several regional political

leaders.

Mr. Fuchsberg’s view of the election is summed
up by the importance he places on the fact that the
people finally have the opportunity to select the
Chief Judge.

Every Tuesday night there is a poetry reading in
Norton Hall. The WBFO (88.7 FM) studio is the
home of The Ten O’clock Muse, an hour-long
program hosted by Janice Mackenzie, in which
students and faculty read their poetry before an
audience while the show is broadcast live to the
Buffalo area. Ms. Mackenzie, a graduate student in
the special humanities program at this University is
herself an accomplished poet and teaches a creative
writing workshop in the Women’s Studies College.
Another grad student, Marty Cohen, first
conceived of the idea for The Ten O Clock Muse and
began broadcasting his version of the program over
WBFO in July 1972. He brought on well-known
poets and taped a half-hour interview and a half-hour
of reading for later broadcast. Among his guests were
Alan Feldman, a doctoral student at the University
and author of The Household, Basil Bunting, a
contemporary of Ezra Pound and author of Loquitur
and Briggflatts, and Max Wickert, professor of
English here, who read some of his own poetry plus
his translations of Georg Trakl, the early German
expressionist.
In his own right
Marty Cohen hosted the show until November
1972, when he and his wife Mindy Aloff, also a
well-known poet in Buffalo, moved to another city.

Lillian Robertson. David Ignatov, a well-known poet
and author of several volumes of verse, made a
surprise appearance earlier this month and read for
half an hour.
During the summer, Ms. Mackenzie played tapes
from the WBFO library of famous poets who had
previously appeared here, such as Carolyn Kaiser,
John Logan, Robert Creeley, Robert Bly, and Allen
Ginsberg.
Feedback from the show is unpredictable.
Occasionally, Ms. Mackenzie will receive a letter or a
phone call from a listener, but more often than not
the only comments she gets are from the faculty and
students in the English Department, who apparently
catch the show more often than other groups. People

Usually from 15 to 20 people come every week

No one believes

It is a measure of this country's loss of confidence that
people are seriously discussing Richard Nixon's mentaf
stability.
Throughout the first few months of the Watergate
scandal, the besieged President was the tough, battling,
calculating politician. At press conferences he gave stellar
performances, handling the tough questions, skillfully
evading the hostile ones, maintaining the upper hand. Last
Friday's conference was in marked contrast: Mr. Nixon
literally blew his cool, lashing out at the media as if they
were the cause of his troubles, abruptly stomping off in the
middle.
In addition to his usually-evasive answers, he applied a bit
of truth-twisting, falsely relating a historical episode about
Thomas Jefferson "withholding" evidence from Chief Justice
John Marshall, when in fact he must have known that
historians would immediately repudiate his self-serving
account. Why, then, did he offer it? Many pundits have
interpreted responses such as these as evidence of Mr.
Nixon's deteriorating judgment.
Even more amazing was Mr. Nixon's quantum jump from
characterizing the U.S. Army worldwide alert, against the
alleged Soviet threat of sending troops into the Mideast, as
the worst crisis since the 1962 Cuban missile scare, but then
calling the chances for Mideast peace "the best in 20 years."
The same Tllogic surfaced in Mr. Nixon's insistence on how
well U.S.-Soviet detente was working, despite the worst
exercise in brinkmanship in a decade. Many immediately
likened the worldwide alert to the dictatorship tactic of
making a bold foreign policy move to elicit national unity
and divert attention from domestic troubles. Others simply
called the U.S. response a severe miscalculation of Soviet
motives.
Meanwhile, evidence that Mr. Nixon himself engaged in
influence peddling is growing. Although former Attorney
General John Mitchell and former Commerce Secretary
Maurice Stans are facing trial for impeding a federal
investigation in return for campaign contributions, and the
extortionist tactics of former Vice-President Spiro Agnew are
now well known, Mr. Nixon had asked us to believe that an
out-of-court antitrust settlement favorable to ITT, coinciding
as it did with a $400,000 ITT contribution to underwrite the
1972 Republican convention, was merely coincidental.
However, former Attorney General Richard Kleindienst has
testified that Mr. Nixon personally ordered him not to
pursue an appeal on the ITT case, leading to the dubious
out-of-court settlement. This one act by itself is an
impeachable offense. It doesn't require a very fertile
imagination to see why milk support prices were raised
following a hefty campaign contribution by the dairy
industry.

'Through the
Glas©
by Barry Kaplan
As the storm continues to rumble and swirl
around a weakened and defensive President, there
cannot be any doubt that an historic trend has been
stalled or possibly temporarily reversed. This historic
trend has been the growth of the executive branch of
the government at the expense of the judiciary and
legislative branches. This growth of Presidential
powers had been applauded by previous generations
because its increased powers had been used to
expand the social welfare functions of the
government, as well as cutting through a generally
conservative obstructionist Congress. The expansion
of the role of the Presidency usually brought cheers
from the “liberals” for these reasons. The
conservatives generally opposed the growth of a
strong Presidency, ostensibly due to fears that a
strong President might assume dictatorial powers. It
now seems ironic that a conservative President is
attempting to manipulate the Presidency in the
direction of a dictatorship, while the liberals are now
monopolizing the former conservative arguments.
This fear of a strong centralized executive can
be traced back to early American history when the
people of this country attempted to establish a
working government. The first attempt at complete
self-government came under the Articles of
which
had
emphasized
Confederation,
de-centralization and states rights, as compared to a
centralized, national state. This experiment in
government seemed unworkable to many leaders
who saw anarchy and chaos in this arrangement. The
Constitutional Convention of 1787 faced the
problem of attempting to walk a tightrope between
the centralized monarchial executive, and the chaos
and anarchy that supposedly occurred under the
Articles of Confederation.
The result of this tightrope act was the
Constitution of the United States, which attempted
to provide for a central executive and at the same
time create some form of decentralized power and
control. Thus the idea of checks and balances
between the three branches of government was an
essential feature, one which was solidified by a series
of judicial cases. This form of government, conceived
on paper, was given life and form by the realities of
everyday politics.
While the three branches were theoretically
equal, the executive branch slowly grew in power
and size due to the growing needs of the nation. The
Presidents who history has glorified have been the
so-called strong Presidents
Presidents who
expanded the powers and prestige of the Presidency,
who led not only the nation, but the other branches
of government as well. We remember Andrew
Jackson, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln,
Teddy Roosevelt, Woodrow Wilson, and of course,
FDR, while Millard Fillmore and his ilk are relegated
to the dustbin of history. These great Presidents are
remembered for their contributions to American
society
they filled the gaps left by the Founding
Fathers.
—

-

More than any other President, FDR symbolized
the great growth of the Presidency by his unilateral
actions in the field of domestic and foreign policy. It
was in the rarified ai; of the New Deal that the
concept of a powerful Presidency became accepted
by a majority of the American people. Of course, the
conservatives who opposed the reformist social
legislation of the New Deal raised the same specter
the fear
that haunted the founders of our country
of a Presidential dictatorship. Thus a split between
liberals and conservatives occurred over the role of
the modern-day Presidency, and the role it was to
play in guiding the country’s future.
No one can deny that due to advanced
communications and technology, the role of the
a
President had to change in the modern world
role possibly far removed from the one designed by
the Founding Fathers. Yet the principle of the
separation of powers is one that cannot be broken
without it we are at the mercy of one man’s whims.
The President is accountable to the Congress and the
judiciary and cannot set himself above the other
branches. When FDR attempted to pack the
Supreme Court, even many of his most ardent liberal
supporters realized that it would create an unhealthy
precedent if it was successful. It seems as if we have
now reached the limits of Presidential growth due to
the misuse of power by our current President.
The power to make war was invested not in the
President, but in our Congress. The judiciary was
entrusted in dispensing justice and punishing the
' tresspassers of the laws. Nowhere in the Constitution
does it say that the President can ignore or obstruct
the law
nowhere in the Constitution is there the
slightest hint that the President can consider himself
above the law. Unfortunately the precedents that
were set by Presidents interested in the welfare of
the country have been prostituted by a man whose
main concern is to hold on to the reigns of power.
What those old conservatives and the Founding
Fathers feared has come to pass
a President who
considers himself above the laws that created his
position the laws of democracy.
Whatever results from the recent revelations
concerning the misuse of Presidential power, one
thing is clear: the trend toward a powerful
Presidency will be halted. America will look in 1976
to a man who will not use the awesome power of the
Presidency to the fullest. After Mr. Nixon, America
will not trust one man with the powers that were so
eagerly bestowed upon previous Presidents. We
might see the Presidency evolve for awhile into a role
which is less dynamic and less visible. The sins of Mr.
Nixon are sins that occur when too much power is
entrusted to one man
the arrogance of power can
corrupt the most sincere and honest man; with Mr.
Nixon, it wasn’t difficult.
Let us hope, however, that if the Presidency
does revert to the earlier model which was so
obvious during the Gilded Age, it will only be a
healthy temporary response to contemporary evils.
Modern America does need a strong and dynamic
leader, but we must also walk that thin tightrope
between centralized power and decentralized chaos.

Impeachment ad scored

The Pete Hamill Column

To the Editor:

by Pete Hamill

I would like to voice a strong objection to the
ad on page 16 of The Spectrum, Friday, October 26.
The ad pushing Dan Creed Chevytowne by
pushing impeachment is in highly questionable taste,
regardless of one’s political beliefs. It is a cheap
attempt to sell cars by capitalizing on what Mr.
Creed believes campus political sentiment to be. I
would have found the ad less objectionable had Mr.
Creed’s picture been included along with Agnew,
Nixon and Mitchell. His reputation is certainly as
suspect as Mr. Nixon’s arid his frequent TV
appearances are considerably less tasteful.
I doubt that you will publish this letter since it
takes a considerable amount of courage to back an
advertiser, but sense of fair play compels me to write

It seems to me quite possible that training of

give all needed security and avoid the risk of
accidental killing involved in their being armed with

good use of those arts. On one occasion they used
them successfully to disarm a hijacker. At any rate it

To the Editor

I

think I can answer for caucus members in
to Friday’s article stating that an

answering

apparently apathetic Assembly passed the $217,000
athletic budget without a single question. To the
charge that some soul-searching should be done,
there was a great deal and it was decided by an
assembly causus formed several days previous to the
meeting, that the budget should be passed. Faced
each year with the problem of hurrying through a
thousand-line athletic budget, the Assembly took the
initiative and formed a caucus. The caucus accepted
the view of two finance committee members and
informed caucus members that cuts to the budget
would just be detrimental to this year’s athletics and
not solve the real problem; so they drafted a motion
calling for a solution of this yearly budget problem.
This motion, acceptable to the president, treasurer
and dissident caucus members, passed quickly.

If the reaction in New York yesterday was any
example, there is nothing more that Nixon can do to
save his hide. He has finally bankrupted whatever
reservoir of respect and honor comes from the
simple fact of being President, He is perceived now
for what he is; a man trapped in a bunker, lashing
out, making plans and then cancelling them, seeking
advice from mediocrities, flailling around for
something large enough to scare Americans with, so
that his own acts will pale by comparison. After all,
what are some altered tapes compared with nuclear
holocuast? What is a burglary at the Watergate
compared with 100 million dead?
The planes are back in the hangars, for the
moment, and Nixon will no doubt go on TV and tell
us how firm and steady and tough he was under
pressure. But it’s a phony. Anybody could look good
solving a phony crisis. Especially if you have the
willing cooperation of your opponents. The audience
doesn’t always know what they’re seeing, but Nixon
is now so suspect that the audience is looking to yell
at him even before he goes in the tank. It’s all over.
It’s a bad act. And it’s time to get it off the boards
forever.

Parking complaint
Note: This letter was sent to the Commissioner of
the Buffalo Police Department.

1 just got through talking on the phone to one
of the police officers at theSUNYAB campus about
a parking ticket 1 was given this morning. 1 told him
I didn’t think it was fair because 1 was a visitor to
the campus attending a job interview. He said 1
should have parked in one of the 20 or so spaces
reserved for visitors. I replied that those spaces were
already filled and 1 was very confused by the
enormity of the campus and so did not know where
else to park but the Lockwood Faculty Lot which is
below the visitors’ parking lot.
He replied that I should have called his
department and told them I was illegally parked.
(Now really, how was 1 supposed to know that
there was no sign indicating that.) 1 said I was calling
him now to tell him and that I could give him the
name of the person I interviewed with and the hours
1 was there. He replied that that was like calling after
the burglary was committed. I quite hotly responded
that I was neither a burglar or a law breaker, but that

General Haig handle it for you?
“Why believe him now?” a friend of mine said.
“I mean, he’s in such bad shape now he can’t even
keep his press conferences or make his speeches.”
We’ve gone so far these days that when the
President of the United States takes actions that
could be the prelude to nuclear war, you look for
some angle that involves domestic criminality.
Clearly, Nixon would prefer to control the agenda of
his next press conference, and have the reporters
play his game with him, asking him about the Middle
East and the Soviet Threat and all that jazz.
Anything as long as they don’t ask him about the
real reasons why he fired Archibald Cox, about ITT,
the wheat deal, Rebozo’s hundred grand. It was no
accident, I would presume, that Nixon’s 3 a.m.
decision to place the American armed forces on
general alert came after the early editions of The
Washington Post carried a story about Bebe Rebozo
and $91,000 worth of stolen securities he is alleged
to have cashed, knowing they were stolen. Nixon has
done worse things in his life than faking a crisiss.

the proper number of parking spaces needed for
visitors was not provided.
I said I would not pay the ticket. He said I could
wait three months and go to court (!) and tell the
judge my story and that if the judge found me guilty
and I still refused to pay a fine for a crime I did not
commit, then the State of New York would refuse to
reregister my car(!&gt;.
This all sounds like something out of Orwell’s
1984. It seems to me that if the Police Department
wants to prevent law breakers, they ought to create
more flexible and human laws, not to mention more
visitors’ parking spaces in an area which is obviously
short on them. 1 wouldn’t mind paying a parking
meter even, but I do resent the black market price of
$5 for 2 hours worth of parking.
Enclosed is my check since it’s clear that by
your rules I’m a law breaker. But I would appreciate
a written response about what you’re going to do
about this problem for other visitors to the UB
campus.

Sincerely,
Barbara Ferraro

God knows what Americans think out there in
the Beloved Heartland, but here in New York, it was
some wierd day. Nobody I talked to believed what
Nixon was doing. The details kept leaking out:
Nixon meeting the National Security Council at 3 in
the morning to respond to what turned out to be a
rumor that the Russians were coming to the Middle
East. The planes sent into the skies. Kissinger getting
on TV with his usual exercise in ambiguity,
explaining that Nixon was sending the planes into
the air and placing troops on alert as “a precaution”
and then trying to assure us that Nixon wasn’t really
serious. It was like having an inside look at
Creedmoor.
The trouble is that Nixon’s little Presidential act
is over now, and nobody will ever believe him again.
Walking around Broadway yesterday afternoon,
before the peacekeeping details were worked out at
the U.N., you saw life go on. Nixon could tell you
there was a Mongol horde on Forsyth St., and you
wouldn’t bother taking a look.
The New Yorkers I talked to yesterday didn’t
really care. They’ve given up on this character. Some
of them were just worried that he doesn’t pull a

with him. It could happen. After all, this is a man

Rachel Carson College view with dismay suggestions
that more land be paved over for the automobiles.
Open, green space around institutions is important
to the city, and we object strongly to losing any
more land on campus to parking lots, especially
when the parking problem will be relieved in a few
years with the move to the new campus. As interim
measures, we suggest the following:
1. More stands for bikes.
2. No parking permits to anyone who lives close
to campus and can walk. For example, Clem Colucci,
a Spectrum Feature writer, in his “Outside Looking
In” column of October 17, complained that it took
him 40 minutes to find a parking space one day, and

wound up parking on the street where he resides,
Lisbon Avenue, which is two blocks from the
Winspear entrance to campus. Why should anyone
living so close drive in the first place?
3. Change the visitor-faculty lot to a preferred
lot with plenty of spaces for any car with more than
one person. This would encourage car pools and the
picking up of hitchhikers who carried a sign where
hitchhikers could congregate to get rides from again.
4. If the parking situation gets worse, a free
jitney service in the immediate University area would
probably cost less than a new parking lot.

Heavy Traffic is Michael's movie of Michael's

theme of helpless existentialism in the Bigtown.

Cleveland Quartet
memorial to Casals
that's what it was. The Cleveland Quartet walked
135 in memory of Pablo Casals. This solemn, sorrowful
movement perfectly expressed the feeling of unrecoverable loss
experienced when Casals died last week. A profound silence filled Baird
Halt at its completion.
So began the fourth concert of the Slee Beethoven Cycle. The
opening was a memorial to Casals' death; the rest of the program was a
tribute to his life and creative spirit. First on the program proper was
Beethoven's Quartet No. 11, Op. 95, in F minor. This key had dark
associations for Beethoven and the piece as a whole conjured a
sensation of struggle and of searching.
After the intense questioning of the first three and a half
movements, the presto finale resolved the strife much too easily. In this
search for truth, the composer found that truth lies not in the final
arrival but in the search itself.
Spiritual

-

onstage Op.

Bittersweet

Next was Quartet No. 6, Op. 18 No, 6 in B-flat major. The
Cleveland Quartet did a stunning job on this rhythmically animated
work, especially in the confounding syncopated third movement and
the brilliant coda of the fourth. Melancholy, represented by a four-note
motive in the last mvoement, is triumphantly overcome.
Quartet No. 15, Op. 132, in A minor completed the program.
Contrast is a bsic element of this piece. The first movement plays
humor and intorspection off one another. Subtle irony and inner
conflict are both recurrent themes in Beethoven's work and the
Cleveland Quartet has a finely honed feeling for expressing them.
Profound lyricism and child like simplicity are juxtaposed in this
piece and the overall effect is cosmically encompassing. The greatful
serenity of the convalescent Beethoven was explored in the Lydian
mode movement. All these contrasting emotions present quite a task
for the interpreter but the Cleveland Quartet came through again to
spark the audience to gushing applause.

Critic

"What did you like bast about it?"
"Well, it was so well done, didn't you think so?"
"Yeah. The only thing that bothered me was
that not much happened."
"Sure, but wasn't it well done?"
"If it was scr well done, how do you explain
them putting a plug in for their next movie right
when you think you're about to part with them?"
"Well, even the Swedes gotta make a buck some

way."

This conversation may have been a common one
about six months ago. The film being referred to was
The Emigrants, a Swedish import directed,
photographpd, and edited by a very talented man
named Jan Troell. It even was nominated, along with
four other movies, for the Academy Award for Best
Picture, only to be gunned down by the Italians and
The Godfather.
Plugged-up 'Emigrants:

What concerns us here though, is not necessarily
a flashbakc of "what were you doing in early 1973,"
but that little plug which was put in at the end of
the epic. That ad has now materialized into a
two-and-a-half hour sequel to The Emigrants, and is
playing at the Holiday and Maple-Forest Theaters.
Yes, The New Land has arrived.
"Where The Emigrants left off. The New Land
begins" could have been a very catchy slogan if not
for the obviousness of the situation. The New Land
takes up the struggle of Karl Oskar and his family in
1850 Minnesota, where they had just arrived last
time we saw them. No matter what you thought of
the first film, one must admit that this sequel comes
off rather nicely. It, too, is very well done.
There is a believable air to this pioneer study.
Indians do not constantly massacre settlers, but are
subtly present either in the form of distant
campfires, or in brief face-to-face encounters
featuring settlers giving what could be construed as
peace offerings in a mutually suspicious atmosphere.
'

There are no large conflagrations which destroy
the hard up-hill fight. Survival here is portrayed as a
hard long struggle, but one which is neither
impossible nor is a snap with all of the Hollywood
predecessor.

Well done but gloomy movie

Fortunately, increased interest is not bartered
away at the cost of quality. Jan Troell is truly a
master at his craft. His very simple, no-fancy-effects
photography style once again enhances the richness

and falvor of the film. Scenes of children innocently
playing in the fields, frontiersmen hurling their axes
into the plush woods, and life in general pacing along
have the same "no strings attached" air, which was
so distinguishable also in The Emigrants.
Follosing the Oskar family's struggle through
the first twelve years in their new home, though
interesting, is also depressing. Why Troell's films
must have a depressing air to them is beyond me. It
is a rather pessimistic outlook on life, if sadness is
added in to keep things within reality. But it would
be unfair to dub the whole film a "down-and-out"
experience. Karl Oskar (Max Von Sydow) and his

wife Kristina (Liv Ullman), through hard work, do
manage to reap in the benefits, and through the
years the farm is shown to expand from a simple log
cabin to a multi-story house, a barn and many crops.

Film strikes gold
Highlighting the story is a segment which
follows Karl's younger brother Robert (Eddie
Axberg) and his friend's gold-hunting expedition. It
embraces the best of both worlds. Not only does it
depict the short-comings and hardships of the
idealistic California gold prospector, but it
empirically communicates with the audience
utilizing dialogue to the bare minimum. If you want
scenery, it is here. If you want credible action, it is
here. If you want a well-done effort, it is that too.
Yet on the other extreme, there was one
segment, the blame for which has still not been
placed. Originally, The New Land was produced as a
three-and-a-half hour epic. Warner Brothers, the
American distributor, clipped away one hour. This
makes it difficult ot follow the underlying presence
of the Sioux Indians.
Dastardly no longer
For a good part of the film, the Indians are not
shown as a force which occasionally jumps up to
confront the settlers, but rather as an omnipresent
one. For this subtle portrayal of the American
Indian, much credit must be given, since it
successfully breaks away from the old dastardly

Indian stereotype.
Suddenly, however, from this omnipresence and
the occasional Indian discussions among the settlers
(which did seem to be obviously leading to
something), we find ourselves not watching a
Swedish family's fight for survival, but rather a short
documentary showing the historical injustice of the
white man to the Indian. It is true that the Sioux
wars occurred in Minnesota during the time period
being dealt with, but the attempt to enhance the
film by including this fails miserably. A switch of
scenes with subtitles, having nothing ot do with "our
heroes," culminates in the hanging of 38 Sioux,
which actually occurred in 1862.
Sensational gloom
■ Whether this was Warner Brothers' or Troell's
fault is unknown, but it is certain that the
gloominess this scene added-to a film which was
beginning to become very depressing already, was
the equivalent of Ali McGraw's nude dive into a
swimming pool a few years ago in Goodbye
Columbus. Its sensationalism just did not mix.
Uliman. Von Sydow and Axberg, as in The
Emigrants, head an excellent cast. Dialogue (which
was a hindrance since it all had to be dubbed into
English) was not needed to a great extent, owing to
the facial expressions and gestures of the actors,
serving as a more than adequate media.
Even with its shortcomings. The New Land is a
very respectable sequel to its sister film, and like it,
could receive a Best Picture nomination. One thing
for certain is that Jan Troell is the best thing to
come out of the Swedish movie industry in a long
time. American film-makers could really take a
lesson from him. After all, his films are not said to
be "so well done" for nothing.

Enlightened law and order
comes to sunny Tennessee
by Randi Schnur
Spectrum Film Critic

Sheriff

Buford

Pusser

of McNairy

County, Tennessee, knows what's right and

what's wrong

-

knows it so well that no

amount of bribes or shots in the stomach
can ever jolt him out of his omniscience.
Since
the number of similarly
enlightened men in the state appears to be

deputizes those few others and, sensing
corruption in every state official right up
to the Governor, tracks down all of the

people
gambling,
responsible
prostitution, and illegal liquor in the
county. And shoots them.

Is this the stuff of which youth-oriented
films are made? Mort Briskin, who wrote
ahd produced Walking Tall, apparently
believes it is. His assumption has been
upheld by that eminent authority. Rolling
Stone magazine, which voted this the "best
American film of the year."
A film in which a nine-yeal-old boy is
given a rifle for Christmas ("Nothing wrong
with guns, in the right hands,"
philosophizes Buford), in which every
Mink hides two or three more of the
sheriff's self-righteous murders, in which
the mighty cause of "las and order"
becomes a man's sole raison d’etre a film
with all this and more, glorified by Rolling
Stone ? Hey, what goes on here? Something
strange and terrible, that's what.
One possible explanation for this
-

interesting phenomenon is fairly harmless.
The character of the loner, the man
(almost invariably the man, in fact; this
role has traditionally been considered very
unfeminine) who is totally self-sufficient
and, most important, a law unto himself, is
an integral part of the Great American
Myth. Buford Pusser (whose character was,
incidentally, based on that of the reallife
sheriff who served as consultant for the
film) fits the mold perfectly.
Disgusted after a five-year career as a
professional wrestler during which he was
never permitted to win an unfixed fight, he
brings his family home to McNairy County
to buy a house close to his parent'.
Brought to the Lucky Spot Bar by an old
high school friend, Buford (acted by Joe
Ben Barker, who has the looks and all the
down-home sincerity of a heavier Glen
Campbell), starts what turns into a huge
free-for-all by slamming his hands down on
the wrists of a dishonest croupier.
Four or five men finally succeed in
grabbing him, while a thug with a
switchblade slides up the heroic chest
which will require two hundred stitches.

Given: No Bread, An encounter and Dinner for
Fifteen has been a very special and significant
collection of moments in the history of the
University's Theater Department. Some thoughts
linger about a production we may never have the
opportunity to see again.
What immediately arrests one about the show is
the sincerity which one senses has guided it since its
initial impulses some time ago. Mort Lichter's
perceptions are more those of a sensitive human
being than a crafty director. He skillfully avoids
what might easily become camp nonsense, while still
turning an eye backward to yesterday's dreams.

There are dangers involved. When Marx spoke
about building something revolutionary, he realized
the need for a dictatorship of the proletariat which
would eventually dissipate. To that extent, the
hierarchy of a potentially revolutionary Theater
Department must be concerned about becoming too
much of a self-contained structure. The focus must
always be on the work and not on the reputations of
the people doing it. Then you create an environment
where a show like Bread becomes possible.
Mort Lichter said the play's orgins "certainly
devloped out of work which I originally brought in
to explore. From the rather loose improvisational
structure, we extracted the theatrical elements and
began to find the form in which we wanted to say
something. It's clear that improvisation can be used

"You deal with actors who often want to know
"What is it?’ and "Where is it?" Then you have to
pretend that there is one theme, maybe, so you can
help them realize that there/so'f a particular theme.
But initially you could ask yourself, What if there

Producer-monolith Joseph Rapp talks, quite
accurately, about the commercial potential of the
Off-Off Broadway theater. Peter Brook brings his
internationally-composed company and their search
for the universal language to New York. His visit
amounts to little more than rays of sunlight for the

Then there's the theater which has been forced
into the academic institutions by the reality of this
society's economic situation. This is generally a land
of ideas as dusty as the books on the shelves in the
professors' offices. This school, however, and maybe
only a few others in this country, show evidence of

The show has undergone several changes since
its first appearance as a work-in-progress last April.
James Waring has done some choreography which is
wonderfully in tune with everything the show tries
to do. Vanessa James has brought much flavor to the
costumes. Jim Lytras is noteworthy not just for the
music he composed, but also for some of the most
outstanding acting in a group which seemed to be
generally honest and sincere about what it was
doing.

Our Weekly Reader

Malcolm Lowry, a biography by Douglas Day

(Oxford

University Press, $10.00)

Malcolm Lowry wrote one extraordinary novel.
Under the Volcano. It is probably the last in a great
tradition of tragic novels; Lowry believed in a coherent
universal order, in the possibility and the importance of
salvation. Both are necessary to the past century's tragic
vision; both are rare in the modern novel.
The novel is set in Quauhnahuac, a Mexican city that
the Spaniards call Cuernavaca. Two volcanos, Popocatepetl
and Ixtaccihuatl, dominate the landscape. The book
follows the British Consul, Geoffrey Girmin, on the last
the Mexican Day of the Dead. Firmin is a
day of his life
desperate alcoholic on the brink of the abyss. He is a
quester after forbidden knowledge. His death unites the
Sophoclean and Faustian tragic vision.
It is an extraordinary book: the prose staggers and
drunkenly poses, alternately achieving sublimity and
absurdity. At times the language islsimple and stark, at
times language itself is the morass of the soul. It is above
all poetry
a triumph of metaphor, of art.
Malcolm Lowry, the book's author, was an alcoholic,
a suicide. Under the Volcano is considered by many, one
it is
of the five major literary works of our century
ranked with Ulysses, and The Waste Land. Lowry's other
work is embarrassingly bad. Conrad Aiken, Lowry's
mentor, suggested that Ultramarine, Lowry's first book, a
metaphysical sea-novel, be retitled Purple Passage. Later
works, posthumously published, are practically
unreadable.
Douglas Day has written Lowry's biography, a
project he inherited from Conrad Knickerbocker.

responsible.

"One afternoon, during a party in Stern's apartment,
Lowry disappeared. Looking about for him, Stern
opened the bathroom door. 'He was standing in front
of the mirror,’ Stem recalled, 'snorting blood out of
his nose, which he caught in his hands, which he
thrust up to the ceiling and all over the wall, so that
the whole place was red and white. He was in his
singlet, staring at himself and blowing bubbles out of
his nose and laughing to himself.’.. Then, propped

From time to time Lowry would cough weakly and
say, 'Well, perhaps you'd better get me a drink.’
Nothing at all was wrong with him, but it was, all
agreed, a beautiful scene.

’’

Day presents many of these anecdotes, ranging from
the grisly and vaguely comic to the brutal, the pathetic,

the obscene. I assume his picture of an alcoholic, strangely
brilliant, alcoholic, obsessed, alcoholic Lowry is an
accurate one. I was not far into the biography, though,
before I began to suspect Day of a gloating dislike for
Lowry. This dislike is implicit in Day's prose: "Of course,
Lowry began drinking again," "Of course, the house was a
"Predictably . ."Of course, Lowry
whore house
was dead."
Even a cursory, disrespectful reader of Under the
Volcano wpuld guess that Lowry was a serious alcoholic. A
biographer is hardly needed to validate this, and questions
of degree and extent are really peripheral.
To write a biography of Lowry, the biographer must
be convinced, one, that Under the Volcano is a
masterpiece, two, that the failure of Lowry's other novels
..

does not indicate a haphazard, strike-it-lucky-once mind,
but instead reinforces the brilliance of the once central
novel. (A sort of paradoxical point here. The garishness of
Dark as the Grave wherein my Friend Is Laid, Lowry's
posthumous novel, destroys the theory that The Volcano's
interest lies solely in the circumstance of its author. Not
every quirky individual novel by a quirky
alcoholic-cum-mystic will be a masterpiece, or even
interesting.)
Day begins with these two suppositions, but he
seems bent on emphasizing Lowry's destructive, suicidal
aspects. How Lowry could have created Under the
Volcano despite adversities is the question, not the precise
nature of the adversities themselves. The man Day
describes could easily attack his wife, attempt suicide,
hallucinate, fear impotence, tell long and sometimes
fascinating stories. On the other hand, one cannot quite
imagine him possessing the stamina or the skill needed to
write Under the Volcano.
Day's passion is for the terrible truth. Though he is
not to be faulted for this instinct, what emerges from it is

a journalistic sleuth's tendency to make a beeline for
scandal. Lowry was hardly a closet alcoholic. Day's is not a
revelation that surprises. One wants to know just what the
not the
alcohol triggered that produced his subtle art
records of day-by-day alcoholic consumption. Any sot can
drink to excess. Any mind can go to waste. What gave this
sot the odd sanction of grace?
A portrait of Lowry as artist and alcoholic could, I
think, have been produced, but probably not by Day.
Oxford University Press, the publisher, claims that Day
talked to nearly everyone who knew Lowry, and I don't
doubt their claim. The result is a mountain of vivid
anecdotes whose summit is the hospital, the gutter, the
insane asylum. A less exacting interviewer and

himself.

than six pages of epilogue. Deft.
Day is inclined to accept Margerie Lowry's version of
the suicide, "but there are still two or three worrisome
points. For one thing, a visitor to the White Cottage is
struck immediately by how tiny it is: their bedroom was
small, and only a midget would require more than three
steps to cross it in the direction of the hallway. The stairs
which begin just at the doorway to the

bedroom
are narrow and steep. From the bottom stair
to the front door is perhaps one yard. It is difficult to see
how Lowry, even drunk and angry as he surely was, could
have failed to catch his wife before she escaped from the
-

—

cottage."

Worrisome indeed. A more astute literary sleuth
wouldn't indulge these Sherlock Holmes inclinations at
such silly length. Lowry's failure to murder his wife does
not trouble me at all. Day is obsessed with things of this
sort. I want to know the man who wrote Under the
Volcano. I want to know why he believed in an ordered
and coherent universe. How did the belief come about?
Lowry's vision of Firmin (the hero of Under the
Volcano ) as a lapsed "white wizard" does not really
explain Lowry's interests in mysticism from the Cabal la to
Hindu and Indian rites. This sort of lifelong obsession
cannot suddenly be born in the course of writing a novel.
Day's interviews with relations, barkeeps, and friends
tend to trivialize Lowry's mind. Such a crowd of people
offering opinions about Lowry makes the man himself
recede into mists. Day's literary criticism seems on-base,
but nothing new
he points out the levels that Volcano
functions on and summarizes plot at length. Since Lowry
wrote solely about himself, certain factual details Day
turns up create new resonances in the novels.
Day's biographical prose is flat, often hokey.
References to the "rag-and-bone shop of the psyche" and
to Lowry and spouse's search for "fragments to shore
against the ruin of their marriage" do not display erudition
or wit. Rather, they trivialize great poetry. The critical
voice jumps from "I" to "we" to "one," complicated by
indulgences to the reader and footnotes that should be
incorporated into the text.

". .. One is tempted to think of the painting of
Albert Pinkham Ryder, the late nineteenth-cetnury
American eccentric. The parallels are startling: the
chronic eye infections in youth; the stuffy mercantile
fathers; the habit of sitting abstracted for long
periods; the writing of execrable poems (most of
Ryder's were mercifully blown away by winds); the
desire in both men to think of their works as musical
compositions; and their lack of real technical ability.
Neither Lowry nor Ryder was a "natural": it is said of
Ryder that he never mastered his medium, only
wrestled it into obedience; and the same might be said
of Lowry..

A bit of phenomenological reasoning could have
produced something more challenging that "Lowry was
frightened of writing, or frightened of failing at writing;
and drunkenness offered a good excuse for not writing and
so not failing . . Lowry drank in order to avoid writing,
sobered up in order to write, then drank to avoid writing
.

on.”
This kind of rationale is used in an interesting way to
explain Sylvia Plath's cycle of suicide attempts. According
to those who admire Plath (I don't), each suicide attempt
led to a higher artistic sensitivity; the higher sensitivity
despaired of its artistic integrity and gave birth to a greater
death-wish.
Lowry's writing had gone downhill to steeply
he couldn't, or at any
(something Lowry clearly knew

that such a theory of drunkenness-and-creativity cycles
seems beside the point. (Interesting note: The Times has

After a few half-hearted barks at "those who still
cringe at the introduction of psychoanalytic theory into
literary biography," Day's proclamation of Lowry's "oral

nonetheless seems so surprised by his meager gleanings,
congratulates himself so heartily for his psychoanalytic
feats, that I suspect he really regards Freud's work as
magic or voodoo.
The most extraordinary bit of prestidigitation along
these lines, though, involves Day's sudden decision to
compare, using Lowry as a center, the Fruedian and
Jungian attitudes toward the artist. This he does in less

interest is not in genius but in the impediments to it. His
fascination with such impediments leads him to focus on
scandal to the point that when he finally deals with Under
the Volcano, the book seems extraneous to Lowry's life.

�Over the Rainbow Livingston Taylor (Capricorn)
When guitar whiz Dave Bromberg was at the
Fillmore Room last year, (te made a condescending
wisecrack about how he had played the whole set
without once playing James Taylor's favorite (and
much repeated) guitar lick. Bromberg was so
condescending he didn't even mention old JT at all.
He just played us the lick that he didn't play us.
Fellow guitar wizard Happy Traum, author of
multitudinous folk guitar books, wrote a brief
analysis of James Taylor's picking style for ari
anthology of Taylor's sheet music. He calls Taylor's
style "deceptively oomplex"-a phrase that is
confusing, if not deceptive, itself. What Happy
claims to have meant was that Taylor's work sounds
simple but is really complicated. It can be assumed
that Traum got a lot of money from Taylor's
publishers for writing that piece.
Considering that Taylor's repetitious guitar
playing is the direct stylistic basis for most of his
songwriting, he has to be careful not to be a parody
of himself. But brother Livingston has got to try
even harder not to be a parody of James, because he
lacks James' redeeming virtue: a really fine basic
writing talent.
Seen from that perspective, Livingston Taylor's
new album Over the Rainbow is a flop. Most of the
cuts sound like his brother's songs, including the
production and the vocals, most of Livingston's
songs are uninspired.
James and Carly Simon, now the Richard
Burton and Elizabeth Taylor (oops) there's that
name again) of pop music, appear in the opening cut,
"Loving Be My New Horizon." The Taylor family
sings the tune, a dose rip-off of Steve Stills'
"Bluebird," in three-part harmony, and the song just
doesn't lend itself well to that treatment. To make
matters worse, the sound quality of the vocals is
poor. Carly titters for us at the end, sounding like
Joni Mitchell, who didn't take the Taylor brothers
seriously either.
Livingston does a cover of George Harrison's
1965 ditty, "If I Needed Someone," and it's a
definitely bad version. Not a great vehicle in the first
place, the song is robbed of its sparkle by a slow
tempo and a woodwind section reminiscent of
Harpers Bizarre. Who needs cute bassoon lines?
This is not to say there are no high spots on the
LP. His jazz waltz version of "Somewhere Over the
Rainbow", while hardly an all-time great, is bright.
The idea was bright, too. "Rainbow,” after 35 years,
is still a fine song, all the better for its corniness.
"Let Me Go Down" is the best of the remainder,
which are all originals. Like Gilbert O'Sullivan's
recent single, the title is only accidentally
scatological. The production's dynamics have an
effective rise and fall, the chord changes are changes
in more than one way for Livingston, and he doesn't
play guitar on it at all. James still could've written it,
but it wouldn't have been one of his tired ones.
Unfortunately, there is one last anticlimactic cut
after that, "Oh Hallelujah." ft exhibits again all of
the Taylor traits, and is again uninspired in its use of
them. Except for a late-entering electric bass and the
vocal, the only instrument is a piano, played by
someone who apparently forgot to wake up that

you like so you don't fool yourself, until you wake
up with a need and then the real thing will always be
there to loosen us up and clear away questions, for
everything here is an answer in music and life which
better be sweet and clean, or you're too caught up in
parent life insurance dreams until the needle hits the
groove and you hear then sing, that you can only
add to things you know and only take from things
you don't and they dig their music so much they
sometimes sound white, 'cause that ain't worried or
hurried into tempos that don't suit their souls
ALIVE ALIVE are you experienced or can you just
jive about living and love, and can you learn, are you
willing to listen and be swept into their mind, or do
plastic eardrums beat you up till you can take no
more and the alarm rings you to the next station and
train of thought in a frenzy of hows abouts, but
never turning to a friend and saying i care about you.
ARISE ARISE, they label it soul music 'cause
they're black, but nobody knows where the soul is
or what it is about except that it's found between
our feet and hairdos, so they make us wear shoes and
hats and sit in chairs in rows to close in our souls,
and they called us crazy when we burst out and put
some in strait jackets 'cause they know so little, and
think we're crazy in the elbows but the soul always
escapes when you find yourself tapping your foot or
humming along, and there's plenty on this disc to
help you escape from supermarket sounds that rush
you around for stale pretzels and beer, but here it's
quite clear that it's love with a conga and strings, and

it's schmaltz and it swings like sinatra and redding,
but they're young and they're heading on roads that
we know nothing new that's not older than words

near and sure it's square, and sure i hear aretha and
marvin and tammy between songs, but we all come
from somewhere and add just a little, 'cause if you

At Last The Last Poets (Blue Thumb)
The Last Poets are a group of three fast-talking
dudes who claim to be very black, very bad, and very
proud. They have made albums in the past and they
have made one recently and it sucks-a-moose. It's
pure, sure, pure unadulterated corn. Blackness?
There's more black in the Supremes because they
weren't bullshitting, they were an art form, they
were real. The Last Poets! Like no one can come
after them. Somewhere deep inside me I get sick
whenever I hear them advertised
the verbal
embodiment of the nationalist revolt. It's just so
much crap they are the rip-off.
And you can bet I'm not going to be a sitting
duck for all the anti-racist jobs that are probably
fermenting. No, you won't Maddox me. And this
time I will not be misinterpreted. This is truth:
Spring of 1971, David Nelson, Gylan Kain, and
Felipe Luciano (of the Young Lords), along with
three percussionists, came to my high school. They
no, it was the
called themselves the Last Poets
Original Last Poets. They did a set for us, reciting
their poetry to the rhythms of the African drums,
and it was tremendous, a tour de force of Blackness.
It was raw, went through moods and changes,
saddened, laughed, screamed, a total human
experience, all with words. And at the end, they had
something to say to us. It seems that at one time, the
group was much larger. They performed around
town in shit holes and went largely unrecognized,
not the most commercial band of poets in the world.
However, they built up a following, and
eventually, they were contacted by a record
company. Would you like to make a record? Some
said yes, this is our chance, the rest said no thanks,
we don't trust the man and we won't chance getting
our art castrated for marketing by an establishment
company. So there was a split. Some left, the others
remained. The ones who left continued to be knows
as the Last Poets and made the record and got the
commercial push, etc. Cool. BUT
There were now two groups with the same
name. Because of contracts and legalities, this could
not be. So who gets the name; The commercial Last
Poets turned around and sued the original ones
That's the way to treat a friend, right? So they are
now called the Last Poets, and the other ones are
called The Original Last Poets, and if you look
closely at their album (they finally did get a
contract, on Juggernaut records, and the album is
called Right On!) there it is, stamped diagonally
across the name Last Poets
"Original." These
other fellas. The Last Poets (unoriginal), and their
album At Last, is a hunk of shit on the cob.
That's about it, I guess. Who are you going to
believe: Felipe Luciano or someone who's not Felipe
Luciano? I mean he's a goddam hero. The Young
Lords, you know?

The only thing I liked about
Faraday and Co. was one moment
of intriguing musical score that
sounded like a blending of flute,
organ, and electronic sound. But
then, my ears, have never been
too good.

If you're a women's libber,
you'll hate Fred. He drags his wife
around whenever the whim strikes
him. Even worse, she obediently
follows.
So, the advice of the day is:
keep away from Faraday and Co.

Cross-country season ends
by David J. Rubin
Spectrum Staff Writer

The

cross-country

Bulls

dropped a 22-34 decision to

Brockport in their final dual meet
of the season Tuesday afternoon.
The loss gives Buffalo a 6-11
record for the season, slightly
behind the 8-9-1 mark of last
year.
The Bulls were out of the race
very early, even though they were
not defeated* by a resounding
margin. At the half-way point,
Brockport had three runners
leading the pack by a wide
margin. (In cross-country dual
meets, if the first three finishers
are from the same team, a victory
is assured.) At that point, Buffalo
coach Jim McDonough said the
Bulls had their “backs tou the

wall.” Brockport wound up with
four of the top five runners, as
only A1 Vanderbrook was able to
break through for Buffalo with a
fourth place finish.
Favorite’s role uncertain
McDonough felt that the teams
were evenly matched. The race
was the only dual meet for
Buffalo this year, and McDonough
said as a result, “there’s less
competition and more running on
your own.” He expected the Bulls
would have an advantage because
of their familiarity with Grover
Cleveland golf course. However,
after the race, McDonough
observed; “I think they’re better
than us.” But he quickly added,
“We tried our darndest.”
It has been a trying season for
Buffalo. McDonough said at the

start of the year: “Our goal is to
have a winning season and to

improve on our eighth place finish
in the state championships.” The
first goal is now an impossibility,
and the Bulls will have an
extremely difficult task equaling
last year’s performance at the
New York State championships.
McDonough predicted: “We’ll be
lucky if we can beat one third of
the (17) schools.”
One of the reasons for
Buffalo’s disappointing year was
the numerous team injuries. Paul
Carroll, Bob Cohen, Julio Rivera
and Bob Curtis have all missed
action during the season due to
injuries. Curtis will remain on the
sidelines for the N Y. State
Championships tomorrow at
Fredonia.

Fourth&gt; seeded Bulls
are ready for tourney
Buffalo soccer hopes in today’s
2nd annual SUNY Center
tournament weren’t dampened by
the curious pairings released by
Binghamton soccer coach Tim
Schum, director of the year’s
tournament. In a mild surprise,
Albany, with a 6-4-1 record and
ranked 13th in New York State,
was seeded first, and Binghamton,
with aln 8-2 record and ranked 8th
in New York, was seeded second.
“We used the Sahler ‘rating
system’,” said Schum. “We had
147 points, while Albany had
152.”
In a more mysterious move,
Buffalo was ranked fourth with a
4-4-2 record and 124 points, and
Stony Brook, despite a 4-6-1
record, was seeded third with 130
points. Perhaps these seedings
were arranged so Binghamton
would avoid facing Buffalo in the
first round, creating a rematch of
last year’s championship game. “It
should be Albany and
Binghamton in the finals this year,
but the Buffalo team looks strong
and could surprise,” remarked
Schum. “Overall, we’re stronger

EXCLUSIVE SHOWING
MORE imCEhor, m.
oi “Fritz Tha Cat"

than last year’s squad that
finished first in the tournament,”
continued the Binghamton
mentor, “we have a more solid
fullback line, and we’re scoring
more, averaging five goals a game.
We’ve scored 52 goals, and given
up 15, eleven in losses to Oneonta
(5-2) and Brockport (6-0).”

Albany not
Albany has played well lately,
winning five of their last seven
games. The Danes only recent
losses came at the hands of third
ranked Oneonta (2-1) and fourth
ranked Brockport (1-0). “It’s a
young team, with eight freshmen
starting,” said Albany coach Bill
Schieffelin. ‘They’ve matured
quickly against the top teams. Of
our 34 goals this year, 30 have
been scored by freshmen. We have
a well-balanced team, and we can
substitute freely and it doesn’t
seem to hurt us.”
Third-seed Stony Brook will be
led by Alex Tetteh and Scott
Walsh. The Patriots come into the
tournament looking for an upset.
Scott Walsh is the Patriots’ leading
scorer with five goals. Head coach
John Ramsey said, “Our
outstanding player is
wing-fullback Alex Tetteh. Alex
controls the team for us.” Stony
Brook’s top effort this year was a
2-0 loss to Adelphi, undefeated
and top ranked in New York
State.

Title up for grabs
Ramsey feels the Chancellor
Trophy which goes to the victors,
is up for grabs this year. “In a two
day tournament, 1 believe any
team can win. We’re going up
there to win, not just participate.
Attitude and desire will be the
most important factors, and with
a little luck, anyone can win. 1
think it will be a hotly contested
tournament, and I wouldn’t count
anybody out. We’ll play them one
at a time, and hope we win it all.”
“It will be a very tough
tournament, and anything can
happen in a short tournament,”
concluded Schieffelin, who’s first
seeded Danes face the Bulls at 2
p.m. this afternoon Binghamton
and Stony Brook square off at
noon to open the tournament.
The championship game will be
tomorrow at 1 p.m., preceeded by
the consolation game at 11 a.m.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Cutbacks in financial aid programs
and shifts in the types of aid
available have left little support
for anyone except the severely
financially handicapped.
“There isn’t any middle in
America today,” wrote John C.
Raines in a recent issue of The
Christian Century. ‘There is a top
and then there are all the rest of
us pounding along on the endless
stampede, wondering where we
are going.”

Under attack
The major attacks on public
education are coming from study
groups dominated by business
men, most of whom graduated
from private colleges and are
striving to save their floundering
alma maters. The major effect of
drastic increases in tuition would
be felt by the middle-class, since

“Instead of closing the gap
between the price of public and
private institutions, a dramatic
increase in the public sector
would be matched by the private
colleges,” said a recent New York
Times editorial. ‘The result would
be leapfrogging inflation with
middle-class students caught in
the squeeze.”

liberal subsidies to the needy is
likely to founder on legislative

charges will stay high; student aid
appropriations are subject to the
fickle mood of legislatures.”
Such arguments are borne out
by past experience. Two years
ago, when the State University of
New York (SUNY) raised its
tuition to the present levels,
Chancellor Ernest L. Boyer
defended the action by promising
to push the State legislature to
increase the ceiling for Scholar
Incentive and Regents Scholarship
awards. The legislature took no
action.

Tuition increase

Faculty, students organizing
toformally protest any hike
by Amy Dunkin
Campus Editor

Tuitions in public colleges should be more than
doubled in the next five years, the Committee on
Economic Development (CED) recommended in a
report last year. Calling the present system of public
education in which tuitions average “only” around
$600 a year unfair to both private colleges and the
poor, the influential business-oriented research group
echoed similar opinions advanced by the Carnegie
Commission and the College Entrance Examination
Board. Outraged faculty and students have
contended the proposals arc in line with the policies
of the Nixon Administration, which has repeatedly
demonstrated its preference for national defense
over education.

Attempting to formally organize protests against
the possibility of tuition increases as outlined in the
CED report, as well as other cutbacks in quality

education,

the Committee for

Democratic

Development of the University (CDDU) at the State
University of Buffalo has been gathering information
to generate awareness of these problems. CDDU was
formed last year when Mitchell Franklin, a popular
professor of Philosophy here, was told he would not
be rehired because he had reached the mandatory
retirement age of 70. Arguing that such State
University policies inhibit education growth, CDDU
felt the only way to offer effective opposition was
by organizing student, faculty and staff groups.

Middle class responsible
The rationale behind the CED proposals is that
the costs of higher education are rising, and since
middle-class students benefit the most from
education, they should bear the burden of the
financial responsibility, said Philosophy professor
James Lawler. The CED document hypocritical for
attempting to “solve the crisis of private institutions

Lawler said. Foreseeing a sharp decline in college
enrollment if tuition increases, he noted that Millard
Fillmore College, basically attended by working
people, suffered a 7 to 8% drop in enrollment for
that reason.
The CED proposals arc “simply another effort
to return college education to the days when it was
available only to a financially privileged few,” said
David Selden, President of the American Federation
of Teachers. Mr. Selden attacked the report as
“coming from a group of corporation executives
with salaries in excess of $75,000 a year.” The
average person paying college tuition “knows it is
too high relative to his or her family’s income
often more than 20%,” he noted.
already
Other CDDU charges were directed at corporate
-

whose companies “employ college
graduates without having to pay the cost of their
training.” “Under the protection of the Nixon
administration, corporate profits have soared while
inflation eats away at the incomes of the majority of
the population
incomes locked in place by wage
freeze policies,” according to CDDU.

Javits unopposed
Sen. Jacob Javits (R., N.Y.) has stated on
television that he would not oppose the CED
recommendation Instead, he will direct his efforts
to making more loans available by supporting a raise
in interest rates on student loans from an

“unreasonable” 3% to a “reasonable” 5%. Unless
banks get higher interest rates, they will not increase
their loan money, Dr. Lawler explained. However,
CDDU does not accept Sen. Javits’ suggestion,
asserting:. “As job possibilities become more and
more uncertain, more students will begin their
careers saddled with heavy debts.” The CED report
also met with approval by the Association of
American Colleges, which represents 800 mostly
private colleges and universities.
CDDU is calling for “real solution,” to be
applied in such a way that the University does not
appear to be defending a narrow interest of its own,
but the right of the majority of the population to
higher education. “Don’t think the solution is to ask
students to pay more tuition, or even to increase the
average taxpayer’s taxes,” Dr. Lawler said.
Advocating a substantial cut in military
spending, CDDU supports the transfer of the
“enormous resources of this country from the
production of the instruments of death to the
enrichment of the minds and culture of the majority
of the population.” In addition, it demands the
creation of an “Emergency Corporate Education
to tax the “record profits being made from
skyrocketing prices” so that corporations contribute
a fair share to the rising costs of education.

Tax”

Declining enrollment
One CED proposal, aimed at faculty, urged that
no more than 50% of the faculty should benefit
from the protection of tenure. “It is obvious that
higher tuitions will produce declining rates of
enrollment, and this in turn will make faculty more
and more expendable,” according to CDDU. It
therefore feels the most important way to oppose
the recommendations is by uniting undergraduates,
graduates, faculty, staff, along with blacks and other
although the law says
neediest
all income groups are eligible.”
-‘The new ‘Basic Opportunity
Grants’ (BOGs), which were
created to provide a $ 1,400 floor
for
full-time and part-time
undergraduates of the most
backeconomically-deprived
grounds, have received only
enough funds to offer maximum
grants of $452. Moreover, this

grants available this year to
sophomores, seniors, juniors or

them more competitive with public
institutions,” believe Dr. Lawler and CDDU.
Although the proposal specifies that large grants
be available for students whose parents earn less than
$4000 a year. Dr. Lawler said working-class people
in genera] will suffer tremendously. CDDU
emphasized: “Public education is without economic
discrimination. But these grants will not significantly
increase the educational opportunities of the
poorest. On the whole, the doubling of tuition will
make higher education for children of working-class
and moderate-income families a thing of the past.”
“All cutbacks create divisions between people who
fight in common, because middle-class students
think they are losing out to minorities,” added Dr.
Lawler.

minorities.
What impact the CED report will have on New
York State public schools is not yet certain. The
Professional Staff Congress of the City University of
New York (CUNY) has vehemently objected to any
tuition charges in the now tuition-free CUNY. A
spokesman for SUNY Chancellor Ernest Boyer’s
office said before any position is taken by the SUNY
system, the 'CED proposals must be thoroughly
researched. “SUNY would be failing in its mission if

it did not make educational opportunities available
to the most students,” emphasized Richard Gillman
of the central SUNY office in Albany, however.
Referring to the tuition increase of two years
ago, which raised charges from $400 to S6S0 for
lowerclassmen and $800 for juniors and seniors,
Chancellor Boyer’s spokesman said the raise was
implemented solely becuas of increased costs with
no accompanying increase in state aid, thus leaving
SUNY with less money. He asserted the increase was
not designed to make tuition at public universities
and colleges more competitivee with private schools.

A vast majority of law school

The report was based on a

lawyers planned altruistic careers.
Messrs. Becker and Meyers, both

3400 students from the six

students don’t really give a damn
about social services.”
Thirty-one per cent of law
students responding said they
would prefer to do some legal aid

to continue it throughout their

Law students at the State

seem more inclined towards legal

least for a few years after
graduation. Only one of the
students interviewed by The
Spectrum had any thoughts of
making a career out of social
service, but all said they would
work in that area for a few years
after graduation. Of those not

none would work in social service

the French and SIP Departments,
which have been plagued by
internal difficulties. It would
“seem a bad percentage to join

Due to a shake-up last year in
the SIP Department, it has fewer

adding that the proposed merger

both felt the merger would stifle
the creativity and individuality of

Tenure review

SA executive committee
votes for students on board

A proposal to place two students on the
Presidential Review Board for tenure was
unanimously passed by the Student Association (SA)
Executive Committee Monday. The two students,
one graduate and one undergraduate, would be
non-voting members of the committee.
The Review Board, which presently consists
only of tenured faculty members, handles all appeals
on the proposed tenure of an instructor.
1 ‘ Most of the discussion centered around the
“non-voting” clause of the proposal. Asking that the
students have a vote, it was felt, would provide the
grounds for the biggest opposition from the
Faculty-Senate Executive Committee, which must
ultimately approve the proposal. The major
arguments against student representation on the
committee are that they are too transitory,
incompetent to judge faculty requirements, and too
immature to hold the Review Board’s proceedings in

confidence.
Keep them honest
“Non-voting is not a bargaining issue,” said SA
President Jon Dandes. ‘Their [the students’]
purpose is to keep the committee honest.”
The proposal calls for* the Student Association
to submit five or six names of students it would like
to see on the Review Board. University President
Robert Ketter would then select two of these
students. The proposal must now be passed by the
Student Assembly next Tuesday, and ultimately by
the Faculty-Senate Executive Committee.
A back-up doctrine is currently being

formulated to require that all student opposition to
the Board's decisions be presented, in writing, solely
to President Ketter.
The use of Clark HaD for SA-sponsored speakers
was also discussed. Current University regulations
prohibit the use of the gym between October 15 and
March IS for other than athletic purposes.
Stiff fee

In a “compromise” worked out between the
Speakers Bureau and the Office of Facilities
Planning, Clark Hall will be available for speakers
Lester Maddox, William O. Douglas, Leonard Nimoy
and Thomas Eagleton. It will also cost the Speakers
Bureau an extra $200-$300 per speaker for “set-up
and break-down expenses.” The Maintenance Union
will not allow students to do this work.
The executive committee was told by Mr.
Dandes, who was notified by President Ketter’s
Arming Sub-Committee, that they would have until
December I to submit comments and suggestions on
the recommended guidelines for selective arming of
Campus Security. Possible suggestions are presently
being drawn up.
Other matters discussed were this weekend’s
meeting of the Student Assembly in Albany, and
where former Assistant Attorney General William
Ruckelshaus will speak when he visits this University
next week. Suggestions were made to have him speak
at Rotary Field. He is presently scheduled to speak
from behind Norton Hall at noon next Monday,
November 5. No decision was made on Rotary Field.

councilman from the district, Mr. Volkert received a
good deal of favorable publicity. The proposed plans
for the center call for a place where civic and
community groups can meet and organize. Its funds
have been frozen by Mayor Makowski, but Mr.
Volkert predicts that this is only a temporary move
prompted by political expediency. He maintains that
the opening of the center would result in an excess
of press coverage for him, and that the Democrats
have withheld the funds because it would hurt the
chances of their candidate.
Community Involvement: Mr. Volkert sees the
community as the core of city organization. He
favors a strong local organization of interest groups,
but feels that they should remain free from his
influence. He views these organizations as crucial in
the expression of community interest, and feels that
they operate best when free from political control.
Education: The central school board has thrown
the schools of this city into a cesspool,” the
councilman believes. Describing the problems which
he sees as crucial to education, Mr. Volkert feels that
commuiuty
is the best
a
form of education. He is strongly opposed to busing
students across community lines. Buffalo’s schools
have yet to be desegrated along mandatory state
guidelines, which is largely because the state Board
of Education has not drawn up a workable plan. Mr.
Volkert’s solution to the “cesspool” predicament of
the city’s schools is to work to improve each and
every school. He emphasizes the importance of local
education and favors it over any city-wide plan. No
student should be made to suffer the impediment of
an inferior system of education, Mr. Volkert said.
Convention Center: Mr. Volkert supports the
proposed Center, but not its designated site. He sees
the Convention Center as a commitment to Buffalo’s
future and feels the municipal government must take
steps to insure the future of their city. Mr. Volkert
supports the encouraging of business interests within
the city. He sees business as an important factor that
benefits the people by creating jobs and bringing
money into the area. The councilman promised to
work 'closely with the business community for the
betterment of the entire city.

�Bill Price seeks ‘authentic’
involvement by community
Bill Price is the Democratic-Liberal candidate for
University District Councilman. He has said his campaign is
designed to seek “authentic involvement by communities
in decisions directly affecting them” Here are his stands on
the issues.
Mass Transit : Mr. Price feels that underground
transit is the only way that mass transit should be built in
Buffalo. He is diametrically opposed to turning the
Kensington swimming pool and Manhattan Playground
park into a parking lot. Mr. Price is seeking to construct a
transit system that will rebuild and renew the life of the
city’s neighborhoods. He is adamant that the city’s
communities should not be tom up and paved over for the
sake of suburban development, and points to the rejection
of the environmental impact study on the transit system
by a bureaucrat in Washington as evidence of the
short-sightedness in City Hall.
Convention Center. “1 am not supporting the
proposed convention center.” Mr. Price feels that the $2.5
million expenditure for the land is too high. Additionally,
he believes the planners made “no effort” to communicate
with various communities as to their feelings on the
Center. As to the proponents who claim the city’s tax base
will increase by 1980, Mr. Price said: “There are some
communities that can’t wait ’till 1980.” Additionally, Mr.
Price claims that the “downtown power structure” is not
committed to balanced neighborhood development;
instead they are assuming the decline of the city is
inevitable, and are seeking to develop the suburban areas
where the money in the downtown areas comes from, the
Democrat maintained.
University District Community Center Terming the
Iroquois Gas building a “white elephant” that Iroquois Gas
couldn’t sell for three years, Mr. Price found many faults
with the proposed establishment of the community center.
[Mayor Makowski has suspended the contract establishing
the center.] “The building was too small for a district
running from Bailey to Delevan; the city might think it
was released from its obligation to the community by
initiating the center, and the director was Volkert’sman,”
Mr. Price said. However, he felt such a center would be a
way of “closing the gap between people and government,”
and it would, provide a means of achieving “legitimate
commuqjty involvement” that does not come from “the
:

by Marc Jacobson and
Michael O’Neill
Spectrum City Staff
This year’s race for University District Councilman
is being contested between Republican incumbant
Charles A. Volkcrt and Democratic hopeful Bill Price.
Unfortunately, neither man appears to be the ideal
councilman for the University District.
One must recognize that the University is the third
largest economic resource in the entire Buffalo area,

Community involvement could be obtained by
“delegating authority to a more decentralized structure,”
said Mr. Price, suggesting structure should be composed of
community people. The community should define its own
priorities and create community planning boards to
determine those priorities, he advised.

Referring to the question of revenue sharing, Mr.
Price felt this source of funds would be ideal for funding a
new''* community center. In the past, he said, any
community input on revenue sharing expenditures was
lacking. He deemed such input very important for the
University district.
Model Cities. Mr. Price said he was “appalled” by
President Nixon’s lack of committment to the cities, as
evidenced by his statement last year that “the urban crisis
is over.” The Democrat urged additional funding, terming
the overall Model Cities project, even considering its faults,
to be “good.”

University Cooperation: Professors are in a good
position to “aid the situation” in the district by speaking
with
about
both
the
community
groups
University-community relations and the individual
professor’s field of specialization, Mr. Price said. He would
utilize the various campus publications to increase
communication, and when elected would “go immediately
to the Dean’s office and arrange to have three interns work
in my office.”
Busing: “Busing is not an issue in this campaign,”
Mr. Price said. He feels there is no political support
anywhere in the Buffalo community for forced busing.
Blacks don’t support busing any longer either, he
maintained, pointing to the fact that many black
communities are unsure of the proper method to insure a
quality education.
Housing: The University and the City have
apparently made “a deal,” according to Mr. Price, so that
there will be sufficient housing in the city fo students. (A
Buffalo housing ordinance states that no more than two
unrelated persons may live together in the same house.)
The deal is that there will be no enforcement of the codes
in order to facilitate the housing of students. For this
reason, Mr. Price contends, the landlords are packing
students into houses at $75 per person, making 300%

Mr. Volkert has stated that he has worked with the
University in the past, primarily through President
Ketter’s office. Although this cannot be denied, its
effectiveness can certainly be questioned. There are
over 21,000 students at this University, and that
number is increasing annually. To work closely with a

small number of administrators does

cooperation with the majority of University-related
people. Mr. Price has pledged to work closely with the
student body.
Mr. Price has also promised to work with

to represent their interests. He

His proposals to remedy the situation would involve
bringing together a group of students, legal aid students at

solid backing from the students and community, plus the
necessary legal arguments, to create a viable system. “Then

total committment. Mr. Volkert is a realtor, owner of a
modeling agency, and has other business interests as
well. Considering the scope and depth of the problems
facing both this district and the city as a whole, an
effective councilman must devote his full time to his
elective office.
While determined to be a leader in the University
community, Mr. Price seeks to become involved with
issues that are not directly related to the University
District. He is concerned with a great many national
issues, and while it is fashionable to have opinions on
these issues, it is crucial that these not take precedence
over the issues directly related to his office.
The effectiveness of any councilman will be
measured by his ability to work with the rest of the
Common Council. In this regard, Mr.Volkert has shown
his ability to compromise and get his resolutions
passed. Mr. Price is extremely dogmatic about his
stands, and seems unwilling to compromise away any
of the community’s needs or the stands on issues he has
taken.
The positions of the candidates on issues
concerning the University and students should be the
major determinant in deciding for whom an individual
will vote. Students should keep in mind the importance
of developing and maintaining good relationships with
the neighboring community, and cast their vote for the
man who most closely allies himself with these goals:
That man is Bill Price.

Mr. Price advocates upgrading shopping areas
with additional lighting, trees, needed renovations.
He asks that certain police teams regularly patrol the
same neighborhood, to develop an understanding of
its problems, and proposes that groups of citizens be
property trained for block security programs
designed to reduce crime. His stance that "busing is
not an issue" is regrettable, but he has advanced
education ideas such as keeping certain schools open
and staffed at night for recreation and adult
education programs. The Democrat has proposed
property tax reform and strict housing code
enforcement to stem urban blight, but he is quite
sympathetic to the lack of student housing unlike

To the Editor:
In Friday’s The Spectrum there was a letter by
Michael Phillips which asked for student support of
the Inter-Collegiate Athletic program. 1 wonder if
Mr. Phillips could tell us which sports the program
will involve and, of those sports., which are of
benefit to women.
I think women have been contributing to the
support of men’s teams for too long while they have
not received the support necessary to encourage the
development of.their own teams or co-ed teams.
Women may not play basketball the same way
men do, but they may enjoy and benefit from
playing basketball just as men do.

laden with $75,000 executives whose children go to
the finest schools. Their attempt to aid private
schools by inflating public tuition is reminiscent of
President Nixon's tactic of fighting inflation by
vetoing a higher minimum wage and aid to the
handicapped and underprivileged as "inflationary."
Similarly, in the name of equality, these proposals
would place any kind of higher education beyond
the reach of all but a privileged few.
Three years ago the tuition at this State
University was a yearly $400; it is now $650 and
$800 for lower- and upper classmen respectively. No
increase in Regents Scholarship or Scholar Incentive
awards accompanied that tuition hike. Thus four
years of attending the State University now costs
$2,900 instead of $1600. The increase is multiplied
when parents footing the bill must send more than
one child to college. When parental inability forces
the student to finance his education himself, he
either must work while he goes to school, if he can
find a job, or take out large loans which leave him in
heavy debt when he graduates.
What is needed is a greater awareness, in the
State Legislature and in the Congress, of the
increasing inability of the middle-class student to
afford a college education. Financial aid and award
programs for middle-income families are most sorely
needed. While financial assistance for lower-income
students must take priority, the needs of that group
are at least keenly recognized; but since being
middle-class is defined as being financially secure,
legislators have not yet woken up to the altered
reality that college has become an over-priced

The word poverty usually connotes decrepit
houses, little food and unsanitary conditions. But in
these days of rampant inflation and soaring costs,
where a simple bout in the hospital can wipe out a
year of family savings, the entire concept must be
redefined.
Perhaps being poor can be broadly described as
not having enough money to meet all the needs of
one's family. And while food, clothing and shelter
are the ’traditional basic needs, most parents
certainly feel a college education is necessary for
their son or daughter to have a chance of succeeding
in the competitive world. Realistically, sending one's
children to college, once considered a luxury, has
become a basic need,

tough as poor people. But when it comes to higher
education, lower-income students are eligible for a
host of awards and waivers, but for middle-class
students, it's no soap. We do not suggest for an
instant that the awards presently available to
lower-income students be diverted elsewhere those
monies are going where they are most severely
needed, which is as it should be. The refuge for the
middle-class taxpayer's children has become the
low-tuition -pdblic colleges, supported largely by
middle-class tax dollars. But a flurry of misdirected
recommendations, urging that public tuition be more
than doubled to relative parity with private tuition,
threatens to seal off that one remaining avenue.
The argument that private colleges are losing
students to the cheaper public schools is based on
misconceptions. Public universities exist not to
compete with private schools, which by definition
cater to the privileged elite, but to provide a college
education for those who cannot afford private fees.
If private institutions are really in financial trouble,
they might easily dispense with a few extras and
lower their costs to attract more students.
But to argue that doubling public tuition would
divert students to private school is circular;
substantial public tuition hikes would simply prompt

When students living off-campus were harassed
and served eviction notices a year-and-a-half ago. a
contingent of University students argued before
Buffalo's Common Council in March 1972 that the
archaic housing ordinance prohibiting more than two
unrelated persons from living together was not only
unconstitutional and an illegal restriction of
lifestyles, but that its enforcement would aggravate
the already-crucial University housing situation and
place over 5000 students on the street. After several
informative and persuasive presentations. University
District Councilman Charles Volkert stood up and
proceeded to denounce the students living in his
district as irresponsible, disruptive and noisy, citing
numerous instances of garbage infractions and
citizen complaints, and insisting that this behavior
characterized a large percentage of students. Before
students could respond to his many false allegations,
he got up and left the room. Any chance for repeal
had been quashed.
The housing crucnh is worse now; Mr. Volkert, a
Republican, is running for re-election. Now he says
the ordinance is probably unconstitutional, that
students should be allowed to live their lives, failing
to explain why he denounced students and opposed
its repeal at that meeting. It is clear Mr. Volkert is
totally umsympathetic to the problems of University
students. His idea of cooperation with this school is
to make occasional contact with Dr. Ketter's office.
But even for non-University voters, Mr. Volkert's
record is a dismal one. "One of the Council's most
negative and divisive members," the Buffalo Evening
News aptly assessed, Mr. Volkert owns a real-estate
business, a modeling agency, and is involved with
other businesses; in short, he is a part-time
councilman at best whose priorities are dominated
by business. While he advocates improving "each and
every" community school, he lacks any concrete
plans on education, and is similarly ill-equipped on
housing and other community issues.

FUNDAMENTALS OF REALITY 6 pts.

by Janis Cromer

Directions: In the following question, a related
pair of words or phrases is followed by four lettered
pairs of words or phrases. Select the lettered pair
which best expresses a relationship similar to that
expressed in the original pair.

COMPETITION: AMERICAN EDUCATION
a) SAT’s: college
b) LSAT’s: law school
c) GRE’s: graduate school
d) MCAT’s: medical school
The correct answer to the above analogy should
be evident to all. Even if you weren’t part of the No.
2 pencil-laden herd who suffered through GRE’s this
past Saturday or the LSAT’s the Saturday before
last, you could easily recognize that all of the
answers are correct.
Standardized tests are merely a reflection of
American education’s distinguishing characteristic:
competition. Competition is emphasized in school
from the time you bring in a “better” show-and-tell
artifact than the rest of your kindergarten class to
the day you receive yow PhD and start handing
down grade rewards yourself.
As the analogy goes; To get into the college of
your choice, you must not only take the SAT’s but
you must score well. Likewise, to “make it” in the
education world, you must not only compete, but
compete aggressively, sometimes ruthlessly and
;

constantly.
Grade-grubbing and brown-nosing are merely
novice forms of competition when compared to the

tooth-and-nail, fight-to-the-finish attitudes which
obsess LSAT or GRE test-takers.
The combat starts months before the actual test
date. Students usually enter pre-test training by
purchasing a sample test book. With this piece of
equipment, they drill and exercise their brains, their
weapons in the test wars. Prospective test warriors
try to strengthen weaker fronts. In the GRE battle,
English majors review the Pythagorean theorem,
while Engineering students memorize the antonyms
of “peccadillo” and “calumny.”
Some test soldiers, the weathicr and/or more
desperate, enter special training camps. For $100 or
more, the student troops can practice battle
maneuvers in trial test settings. The distinguished
leader of the LSAT camps, Stanley Kaplan,
reportedly gives the most authentic simulation of the
battlefront action.
Peculiarly, as T-day (test-day) approaches, there
is a marked decrease in cooperative feelings among
the troops. The “we’re in this mess together”
sentiment radically changes to an “everyone for
themselves” attitude. Often, test-takers are known to
refuse supplies to fellow students; review books,
training camp information and tips from those
previously engaged in the battle are routinely
withheld as top secret.
When the test day arrives, all participants are
apprehensive. Prior to entering battle, the test-takers
reflect: “The outcome of the next three hours may
change the rest of my life.” As they file into the test
area, they peruse the battlefield, reassuring
themselves by singling out at least one fellow battler
who appears dumber and therefore, weaker than
themselves. As the proctor signals the test start, all

are without allies; everyone is viewed as someone to
beat.
Six weeks later, the victors receive their spoils; a
LSAT score of 670 is socially acclaimed by law
schools and less fortunate test-takers alike.
Erroneously, a recipient of such a score is termed

“smart” or “intelligent” rather than labelled more
accurately

“good

competitor”

or

“successful

conformist.”

Certainly, the high test scorer may be “smart,”
but the high score is more a function of competitive
astuteness than of intelligence.
Standardized tests demonstrate only a small part
of “competition as America’s primary educational
tool.” Grades exemplify traditional education’s
philosophy of pitting one student against another,
rather than dealing with individual minds and
interests.
Some may argue “competition is the American
way.” Conventional theory says competition is a fact
of life which must be learned thoroughly and early
in life.
While this is a sad commentary on American
life, it is true that competition is the lifeblood of this
culture. There is a “rat race” which all must face
sooner or later in life. But imposing a replica of the
rat race into the school system, based on the belief
that early exposure to the “real world” will facilitate
adaptation to that world, makes as much sense as
placing sinners in the pillory to encourage
repentance.
Competition

Should not be regarded
interchangeably with competence. On the contrary,
competition only serves to instill a false sense of
competence.
As John

“Schools give every
encouragement to producers, the kids whose idea is
to get 'right’ answers by any and all means. In a
system that runs on ‘right’ answers, they can hardly
help it. These schools are often very discouraging
places for thinkers."
Not only do exams and grades make students
feel that understanding is, at best, secondary, they
do greater harm by denying that understanding to
the few students who continue to seek it. Students
who are not satisfied with merely the “right”
answers have the most difficult school experiences.
Especially today, no educational system can
justifiably continue to encourage every student to
reach for external rewards such as high GRE or
MCAT scores without sometime facing the fact that
regardless of grades or scores, space at the
educational “top” is limited and many of those
competing students’ aspirations will not be fulfilled.
An emphasis on competition engenders the selfish,
clawing atmosphere which inevitably results in brutal
treatment of those less willing to engage in rivalries
of performances.
Directions: Choose the word or phrase that is
most nearly alike in meaning to the word or phrase
in capital letters.

b) creative learning

Unfortunately, the answer is A.

Oppose merger
To the Editor:
The members of the Undergraduate Society of
Spanish, Italian and Portuguese (USA of SIP) would
like to bring to the attention of the university
community our opposition to the proposed merger
of the French and Spanish Departments.
First we must object to the lack of student

Fall Term: The Meaning of Life. Sex, love, work, wealth,
leisure and ideology are examined as possible sources of meaning,
with attention to the question: What do 70 year-olds know that 19
year-olds don’t?
Spring term: Selected Problems in Living. Emphasized are
taxes, insurance, automotive legal problems, subleases, contracts,
credit, birth control, venereal disease, zoning, local government,
divorce, social behavior, job-seeking and unemployment.”
In all seriousness, this is the kind of course any university must
have. It has been said often that the only thing a student learns
from going to school is how to go to school. In Oregon, students
cannot graduate from high school until they show that they can
perform such elementary living skills as balancing a check book and
understanding various documents like leases and marriage licenses.
The number of students who don’t know the simplest of these
skills is astounding.
Then too, we can’t forget the problem of students without
goals, directions or standards. The nuts-and-bolts considerations of
the second semester of “Fundamentals of Reality” should not be
allowed to overshadow the fall semester. Too many people know
how to survive without knowing how to live. The course should be
a sequence with the first semester prerequisite to the other.
The course can be team-taught with faculty from the
departments of philosophy, law, economics, management,
psychology, sociology, health sciences and just about anything else
incorporated into the lecture schedule. Community people like
hospital administrators, Small Claims Court judges, insurance men.

Motor Vehicle Department personnel and*other state agencies

could serve as adjunct faculty. And since nothing is more important
than life, this should be an upper-level course.
Students should write to the responsible administrators:
President Robert Ketter, Academic Affairs vice president Bernard
Gelbaum and Assistant Dean of Undergraduate Studies William
Fritton. Any faculty interested in teaching the course (several
sections should be needed) should write to me care of this office.
2) Twilight Zone Department: Imagine yourself a political
columnist. Two weeks ago you wrote a column about Spiro Agnew.
Before you had a chance to publish it, the Vice President resigns in
disgrace. A week later you write about Elliot Richardson, and when
it’s too late for you to withdraw the column, you learn he has
resigned, along with half the honest people in the Justice
Department. Wouldn’t you start to wonder?
Maybe I have the power to drive men from office by writing
satires about them. Once in high school, when our underground
paper held a lottery in which the person who guessed the date and
hour when our pregnant librarian would give birth, I asked the

He kept the money and I felt guilty. So I must take somewhat

who gets the most votes will be the subject of a column in the near

Bulls hope to make comeback
by Dave Geringer
Sports Editor

Facing the toughest slate of opponents in Buffalo
hockey history, the Bulls will attempt to rebound from
their first losing season (10-12) ever and return to the
ECAC Division II playoffs. A squad of sixteen American
and fourteen Canadian players will open the home
schedule against Bowling Green next Friday night,
November 9.
“We have the potential to be improved over last
season,” said hockey coach Ed Wright. “We’ve plugged
some of the holes which we had last year, our defense is
better and we have more depth up front. However, as
we’ve improved, so has our schedule. Whether our
improvement as a team is equal to the improvement in our
schedule remains to be seen.”
A strong showing in Division II would be necessary
for the Bulls to make the playoffs, Wright indicated. “I
think that we’ve got to have an excellent record in our
division because we do not play the so-called elite,”
remarked Wright. “We’ll have to play outstanding hockey
against the Division II competition that we do face. We’ll
also have to make representative showings against everyone
else on our schedule,” the hockey coach added.

“We’ve been working with seven lines,” stated
Wright- “The way I look at it, we’re going to dress four
lines. Wait until you see the line with Davies,
Wolstenholme and Klym I think Davies plays along the
same lines as Stan Mikita he has good moves and good
passes. 1 think that they’ve looked the best of our lines so
far.”
-

-

Line changes a possibility
Wright did not rule out the possibility of other line
changes. “At this point, all of our positions aren’t set yet,”
Wright said, “we’re still searching for a right wing on
Johnny Stranges’ line. One or two of our other spots are
up for grabs also. We’re attempting to create a little more
balance this year
last year, if you shut off Klym and
Stranges, you pretty well shut us off.”
Wright likened Dixon to Frank Mahovlich. “He
reminds me of the Big M,” smiled Wright. “He has size,
strength and cannot be moved when he gets the puck in
front of the net. When he gets it oh his wing and leans on a
defenseman, he’s going to the net, no doubt about it.
Bowman started out not seeing much action last year, but

Sylvester mainstay at defense
Sophomore Mark Sylvester, the mainstay of the
Buffalo defensive corps last season, will be joined by
several
newcomers.
Sylvester, who possesses an
shot,
tallied 23 points last season to pace the
outstanding
Buffalo defensemen, while being named to the ECAC
All-Division II weekly squad on several occasions. Mike
Perry, a freshman from Toronto, is also a certainty to play
a regular shift on defense this season. Paul Songin, another
returnee, is battling freshmen Mike Caruana, John Mineo
and Fred Sutton for the two remaining regular positions.

Perry also a key
“We’ve added Mike Perry, who i$ in the same class as
Sylvester,” reported Wright. ‘Terry’s got size, he’s very
quick and he handles the puck well. He doesn’t shoot the
puck quite as hard as Mark (Sylvester), but he has a very
quick shot. Right now, I have Perry and Songin split (each
working with another defenseman). Mike Caruana has
looked good, he hits well and moves the puck well. The
only thing that we have to worry about with him is his
inclination to end up in the penalty box,” Wright added.
Right wing Mike Klym, the Bulls’ leading scorer
(23-13-36) last season, heads the list of returning Buffalo
forwards. Klym notched five hat tricks last season while
working with center John Stranges, the Bull captain.
Stranges, whose 35 points placed him second in the
Buffalo scoring parade last season, has been shifted to
work with left wing Bill Busch. Left wing Rick
Wolstenholme, third among Bull scorers (14-12-2S) last
year, has joined Klym in flanking center Chuck Davies this
season. The right wing post on Stranges’ line is open, with
returnees Mike Kelly, Ron Maracle (centers last season)
and Gary Romanyck battling newcomer Joe McAndrew
for the position.
Doug Bowman, fourth center last season, has been
working with Andre Poirier (12-12,-24) and freshman Mike
Dixon. Returnees Bill Reid and Tom Schratz are current
members of this year’s fourth line, centered by freshman
JeffPearce.

Maracle in battle
Russ French and Don Maracle divided the !
goaltending duties for Buffalo last season, but French
(6.49 goals per game) left schoo. Maracle is being i
challenged for the starting position by freshman John
Moore.
“I’d say, based on what has happened so far, that the
starting job is a toss-up between Moore and Maracle (4.40
goals per game),” decided Wright. “I thought that Donny
performed adequately last season, but Russ did a good job
also. Donny appears to be very confident this season, B
something which can only be a plus factor, in addition to
his experience. John Moore’s got a very good glove he’s
shown very well in practice,” Wright added.
Moore and Maracle will be battling for the staring
job as the Bulls’ pre-season camp ends, with a

Local talent m
With the improvement of the minor hockey
program in the Buffalo area and the curtailment of
foreign student tuition waivers by the State
University system, the hockey Bulls have turned to
local talent in large numbers this season. Buffalo
currently has sixteen Americans on its varsity roster
of 30, a change from the usual complement of

Canadians.
‘This season, we have more Americans on the

team than we’ve ever had before,” said hockey
coach Ed Wright. ‘The fact that my faith in the
American skater has changed and the shakiness of
the tuition waiver program dictated that I go out
and recruit the best possible local talent, i didn’t go
out just to recruit Americans, but when I recruited
in the normal fashion I was impressed when I made
my evaluations. I firmly believe that the individuals
I have are capable of playing intercollegiate hockey.
They have the basics, but some of them are lacking
in experience and in the coaching end. With our
extensive practice schedule and our coaching
techniques, we can improve them to the point that
they can play college hockey,” added Wright.
Faith upheld by locals
Wright cited the play of two local players last
season as bolstering his faith in area talent: “I think

that the hnprovement of Paul Songin, who didn’t

Americans could compete adequately.” ■&gt;,

Wright foresaw the possibility of future
recruiting campaigns aimed almost totally at
recruiting; local talent. ‘*Yes, f would have to say
that the stage is set for our program to swing to this
side of the border,” Wright assessed. ‘The fact that
the tuition waiver is being dropped isn’t hurting our
program as much as some people think. The
development of minor hockey in the Niagara
Frontier is producing a product that is capable of
college competition. The money pinch by most
universities means that programs are going to have
to be more self-reliant,” added Wright.
!

The Bull coach was pessimistic about offering
financial aid in the near future. “No, I don’t think
that I’ll be able to offer any more tuition waivers
unless the money becomes available,” Wright
explained. “It is evident now that scholarships
aren’t going to be available,and that tuition waivers
aren’t going to be available. Our formerly
all-Canadian squad is rapidly changing faces. The
phrase that we are on the verge of a new era is true,”
Wright concluded.

�Lev fights

Law suit over cosmic dog
by Larry Knftowitz
Campus Editor

A warrant of arrest is now out for two students,
Joe Michael! and Steve Meisner, for stealing their
own dog.
The dispute began last May, when the bampus
prophet Michael “Lev” Levinson agreed to take care
of Mr. Meisner’s dog, Franklin, for the summer.
When the two roommates returned to Buffalo in
September, however, Mr. Levinson refused to give
Franklin back.
Fickle canine
“Lev sa(d he had a discussion with Framklin and
Franklin had decided that Steve was no longer his
master,” Mr. Michaeli maintained. N6t knowing
where to turn, he and Mr. Meisner first approached
one-time Presidential candidate Mary Levinson to see
if she could convince her son to return their dog.
However, she apparently told them she “did not
know what her son does.”
Mr. Levinson denies he had ever discussed the
matter with Franklin. “It’s my dog, not their’s,” Mr.
Levinson asserted. “Steve told me that he would
lock the dog in his garage all summer if he took him
home to New York
I said I’d take the dog only if
it becomes mine, and he gave it to me.”
Messrs. Michaeli and Meisner subsequently went
to Lev’s home to retrieve Franklin. As they were
standing in his driveway waiting for someone to
answer the door, Franklin suddenly dashed out of
the backyard and according to Mr. Michaeli, “began
jumping all over Steve.” Mr, Meisner quickly
scooped Franklin up into his arms and the trio drove
...

proclaimed the cosmic rapper. “If I went to address
the Ervin committee, the dog would be at my feet.
Before they stole him, I was teaching him to take
bank deposits across the street by himself.”
Plato, Socrates, Franklin
Although Mr. Michaeli conceded he found the
dog filthy and with fleas, and that he had been in
and out of the dog pound, Mr. Levinson said
Franklin would up at the pound because he tried to
board the Ridge Lea bus to study philosophy and
was arrested. He said he bailed the dog out after one
night in jail, but the same thing happened two weeks
later. “But from then on, the dog learned never to go
near school unless 1 was with him.”
Mr. Levinson saifllFranklin was filthy because he
had found a construction site three blocks from
home and used to play ringelevio with a couple of
other dogs.
Although Franklin is now residing with Messrs.
Michaeli and Meisner, they claim Lev has threatened
to steal Franklin if the door of the house is left
open. “He also said he’d beat Steve ‘within one inch
of his life’ if he saw him alone,” Mr. Michaeli
indicated.

Harassment

Mr. Levinson has recently filed criminal charges
against Mr. Meisner and Mr. Michaeli. The night
before their scheduled court appearance, Mr.
Michaeli said Lev telephoned to ask if they knew
they were supposed to appear in court at 9:30 the
following morning. “He wouldn’t tell us why or
where we were supposed to appear and we thought
he
was bluffing. So we called the cops and told them
away.
we were being harassed. They told us to file a
warrant of arrest for harassment.”
Share the dog
Several days later, they went down to Buffalo
Several hours later, Lev paid a visit to the
eisner-Michaeli home and accused Steve of stealing City Criminal Court and discovered that Mr.

he would have talked it over with him and something charges of petty larceny, or as Mr. Michaeli termed
could have been worked out whereby we could have it, “stealing our own dog.”
The parties met several days later to arrange an

out-of-court settlement. Lev reportedly said he

Apparently, a very intimate relationship had would drop the charges and refile them in small

“Lev really doesn’t want the dog,” Mr. Michaeli

Married student athletes

irresponsible, for a bride can often provide the
needed stability.

Contributing

Editor’s note: This is the first of a two-part series on
the lifestyle of the married student athlete. Today's
installment is an analysis of what seems to be a dying
breed of married athletes, with insights from people
who have dealt extensively with this topic
the
coaches. The second installment will be a case study
of Buffalo wrestler Jerry Nowakowski and his wife
Cheryl.
-

The married student athlete is a man wearing
three hats. As a student, he is busy enough. In
addition, he has the responsibility of practicing and
performing for an intercollegiate team. Furthermore,
he bears -the responsibility of a wife and home, not
to mention the inevitable economic strain. Suffice it
to say his life must be a difficult and trying one.
In recent years, Buffalo has always had a long
and distinguished list of married athletes on its
varsity teams. Wrestlers Tony Policarc and Eric
Knuutila, trackman Bill McCarthy, hockey captain
Ted Miskolczi, swimmer Bill Reeves and basketball
star Curt Blackmore are among the varsity Bulls who
have enjoyed connubial bliss while they competed.
Now all of these married players have either
graduated or are out of the University. The 29
year-old Reeves, a Vietnam veteran, was recently
forced, to q,uit schoqj to support his wife and three
children.
swimmer is presently having
problem* with bis marriage and education, while a
wrestler had to quit due to his recent wedding.
Buffalo’s varsity squads are left with only one
married athlete, Jerry Nowakowski. The trend
appears to be moving away from married student

athletes.
New trends
There are many reasons why today’s collegiate
athletes are not getting married in large numbers.
Some athletes, like their non-athletic fellow
students, have opted to live with their girlfriends
rather than get married. Advances in birth control
and changes in social mores have made marriage less
and less popular among young people. “It’s, related
to national trends for students,” said hockey coach
Ed Write. “Students are aware that marriage is failing
as an institution,” he added. Other coaches indicated
that the “machismo” attitude, which makes it a
symbol of pride to git a girl pregnant, is no longer
prevalent among athletes. What a young man used to
look for in marriage, he no longer has to get married
to get.

Basketball coach Leo Richardson, who feels that
married athletes are likely to be more mature and
responsible, does not agree that there is a trend away
from marriage. “My team is very young,” said
Richardson. “I think it’s likely that before four years
are up, one or two of them will be married.”
Richardson prefers an athlete to get married if he is

Unlike Richardson, there are many coaches that
do not like the idea of married athletes. “A lot of
coaches are down on it,” said wrestling coach Ed
Michael, himself a married athlete throughout his
undergraduate days at Ithaca College. “Actually, it
can be a helf or a hindrance,” he added.
the
“Historically, we have been very fortunate
wives have supported us.” A key factor in the
success of the married athlete is a spouse who is
willing to support him not only emotionally, but
economically, Michael stressed. Connie Michael’s
income as a dental hygienist paid for her husband’s
education. Similarly, swimming coach Bill Sanford’s
wife assisted him while he attended school, though
the Sanfords had help from the G.l. Bill.
—

Wife support
Most coaches agree that marriage can present a
very tough situation, and that there are times when
the married athlete must be treated differently. He
may be allowed to leave practice early, or to practice
on his own. “You have to be sympathetic,” said
track coach Jim McDonough. “He’s got it tough
sometimes.” McDonough remembered his Kent State
days, when he would get tickets for a meet for a
runner’s wife, or help her get a job.
“It’s got to be discouraging for a kid,” said
soccer coach Sal Esposito. “He’s got three things to
worry about. The non-married student only has
himself to worry about.” Esposito also indicated
that while the marriage for a student athlete presents
special problems, it is not immune to the problems
that may affect any marriage. “Even if the wife
works, it's going to be a major adjustment for both
of them,” Esposito said. “There is often the
psychology of guilt if the wife works.”
“Marriage adds a third aspect and the other two
have to suffer,” said Ed Wright. Wright feels that
marriage can be detrimental to an athlete’s career
because he is no longer as exclusively dedicated. But
marriage may also be beneficial in producing a more
realistic, mature and responsible athlete, he
admitted, and one well-qualified for leadership. In
fact, Miskolczi was last year’s hockey captain, as
were Policare and for the wrestling Bulls, Knuutila.

Athlete to seek counsel
Baseball coach Bill Monkarsh requests that when
one of his athletes considers getting married, he and
the girl should seek counsel from experts and get all
the facts. “Marriage is not a bed or roses,” said
Monkarsh, “when it is an athlete who puts such a big
burden on his home life. It takes two very mature
people who are willing to put aside this time so that
the athlete can seek this [athletics] out.”
All coaches agreed that they wouldn’t and
couldn’t discourage anyone days at Ithaca College.
“Actually, it can be a help or a hindrance,”
increasingly against it.

‘Eveningsfor New Music
commemorating the future
9

by Ken Licata

Spectrum Music Critic

You ought to kick yourself for missing this one.
The tenth anniversary celebration of the Evenings
for New Music series presented by the Center of the
Creative and Performing Arts was presented last
Saturday at the Albright-Knox Gallery. Lukas Foss,
co-founder of the Center, directed the action in one
of the most exhilarating concerts Buffalo has seen in
a long

time.

In his opening remarks, Foss pointed out that
the intent of the evening was not merely to
commemorate the first ten years of the series but to
“celebrate the future.” The future of experimental
music is brighter due to the efforts of the Center
members in encouraging, creating and performing
new music forms.
Opening the program was Riegger's “Study in
Sonority” for ten violins, an early (1927) milestone
in the American experimental tradition. This piece
destroys the impression that non-tonal music must
sound harsh. Massive Ivesian tone clusters and
vibrant Stravinskian rhythms contributed to the
fabric of the piece. Each performer had difficult
passages with which to contend but executed them
masterfully.

techniques. Eberhard Blum, the flutist, had passages
where his voice and flute sounded simultaneously.
Harmonic glissandi and microtonal phrases were
required of cellist David Gibson. The piano part,
brought to life by Thorkell Sigurbjornsson, entailed
strumming of the strings and use of a metal slide
(like a blues bottleneck) to alter their pitch along
with the conventional digital manipulation of the
ivories.

Waves
Heightening of vision of the sea as a foreign
world was the disembodiment of the instruments’
sound. Rather than emanating from the instruments
themselves, the notes emerged (via microphones)
from speakers on either side of the stage. This
electronic delivery sustained the notes longer than a
natural acoustic presentation and allowed for a more
evident interplay of overtones.
Infrequently there appears a work which
literally screams that it is destined for lasting esteem;
this is such a work. Messeurs Blum, Gibson and
Sigurbjomsson are hereby strongly recommended to
record “Vox Balaenae.”
The finale of the evening was a work which is
considered by some listeners to be at the root of
experiemntal music; Stravinsky’s ‘L’Histoire du
Soldat.” It is radical in its treatment of the ensemble
instruments as individual voices and personalities.
A sparkling performance was given by U&gt;e seven
musicians and the readers of the text, Max
Seymour* Knox and Edward Regan. Ironically, tire
recitation by three of the community’s most
and powerful leaders concerned the demise of a
soldier who consorts with the devil for wealth. The
piece, a Foss translation of the C.F,. Ramuz text,
took on a tongue-in-cheek disposition. The
standing-room audience rated the performance its
marvelous.
Immediately following the concert a party was
held for the audience and performers in the
Albright-Knox sculpture court. Music was provided
by Imani, a Buffalo rock group. There is something
surrealistic about boozing and dancing among the
works of Henry Moore and Pablo Picasso.

concerning
Two reasons for supporting a
comprehensive health care system
were cited by Vice President for
Health Sciences' F. Carter Pannill.
“Students deserve quality care
and they are not getting it now,”
he said. However, the major
advantage of such a system would
be its educational potential, Dr.
Pannill stressed. For students in
health-related fields, it will
provide a valuable experience in
patient health care and teamwork.
In addition to offering health
services, Jpus system will strive to
educate students about vital
health matters like nutrition, drug
-

abuse and general hygiene. Dr.
Larson agreed that the essential
issues are appropriate health care
for the members of the University
community and providing an
academic environment that would
aid the State University of Buffalo
and its students.
Renovating Michael Hall with
elevators and ramps will be the
first phase of an attempt to
increase efficiency and access to
health care. Although facilities
will be developed on both the
Amherst
and
Main
Street
the
campuses,
more
comprehensive facility will be at
Main Street where most of the
health professionals are presently
located. However, A1 Campagno,
director of the Health Care
Division of Sub-Board I, preferred
a centralized unit. As it stands
now, noted Mr. Campagno, the
dual system is “geographically
impossible.” He hoped something
could be worked out on the new
campus.
Jon
Student
Dandes,
Association President, termed the
Administration’s and committee’s
commitment to improving health
services as “total.” The attitude of
everyone involved is “positive,”
he added, and this is an “action
committee willing to move and
take
a
stand. I’m really
impressed,”
concluded
Mr.
Dandes.

An asset to the soccer team

Cross-country Bulls
end eighteenth in meet

by Dave Hnath

by David J. Rubin
Staff Writer

Spectrum Staff Writer

Spectrum

A welcome addition to the Buffalo soccer Bulls
this season has been junior Jim Young. Young, a
transfer student from Middlesex County Junior
College in Edison, N J., has been rudely awakened in
coming to Buffalo where athletics do not receive
wide student attention.
“It’s been a change for me,” reflected Young.
“I’ve never played with a .500 team before.” In his
two years at Middlesex, Young’s teams compiled
records of 10-4 and 11-3 respectively. “It was hard
for me to adjust to the lack of interest from the
student body,” continued Young. “The junior
college I played for had only 7000 students, but
we’d always get at least 200-300 spectators at our
games. Here, there are 24,000 students, and they’re
supposedly opening up one of the biggest campuses
in the country. Yet, we only get 25 or fewer people
at our games
there’s something obviously wrong
with this situation.”
The 5’-6” forward from East Brunswick, NJ.,
sees no reason why the athletic department couldn’t
be upgraded without hurting academics. “I
understand that the school is primarily known for its
academics, and that’s the reason I’m here. But the
junior college I attended was both academically and
athletically oriented, and the two coincided without
any difficulty. In fact, the two have brought
recognition .to the school. On a campus this big,
there is room for both academics and sports, and the
athletes, students, and community will benefit from
it.”
-

Young* star
Despite a slow start in the 1973 campaign.
Young has become a full-fledged star in the last few
contests. T’m happy that things are starting to work
out for me,” commented Young. T can honestly say
that I’ve scored eight goals, but in the process of
scoring those eight. I’ve missed 3-4 times that many.
I’ve had a lot of hard luck this year. I’ve hit the post
in four games.”
XIn his late season surge, the “Blonde Bomber”
has broken six school records, and tied two more.
With two games remaining on the slate, his eight
"

goals, nine points, and 55 shots are all season

records. His 14 shots against Geneseo also set a new
gpme standard. His consecutive game scoring streak
of four, and his three gaols in one half are also team
records.
Jim feels that the Bulls’ developed a positive
team attitude. ‘The guys come out to practice, and
they work hard. Those 15-16 guys we get out at
practice are all aware that soccer is only in its second
season, and they practice and play with the hope of
bettering not only themselves, but the soccer
program as a whole.”

Turning point
“I look to next season as a turning point for the
Buffalo soccer team,” continued Young. “I feel with
the guys we have now, and the guys we will have out
(recruits, players ineligible in 1973), well have one
of the best teams in New York State.”
Young is optimistic when he considers the Bulls’
chances in this week’s SUNY Center Tournament at
Binghamton. “I think we’re going to surprise a lot of
people. Well get the second seed, and if we play the
way we’ve been playing the last three games (2 wins
and a tie), we’ll bring home the trophy. It would be
a great reward for the team, and especially the
coach, who’s proven his dedication to the athlete,
the team, and the school.”

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

While the controversy surrounding the proposed
arming of Campus Security continues here, a similar
controversy is raging at the State University at Stony

Security. A small gathering of students watched the
burning behind Norton Hall; a scheduled mass rally
against arming never materialized.
The question of arming at Stony Brook arose
October 11 when the Stony Brook Council, the local
governing body, recommended that its Caftipus

Arming delayed
“Under present circumstances, I have decided
that firearms should not be issued,” President Toll
stated. “If the situation changes, the option of
issuing arms is open in light of the fact that some
security officers are already licensed for gun use,”
Mr. Toll also said.
“The campus situation is changing,” said T.
Alexander Pond, Stony Brook Executive vice
president. “There is an increasing amount of
incidents that draw concern and require us to take
precautions,” said Dr. Pond. “We must have options
for future policy.” Despite such statements from the
administration, the Polity Student Council and the
Faculty Senate urged President- Toll to “do
everything in his power to discourage the use of

firearms.”

Security be trained in the use of firearms. The
Council adopted a resolution which did not call for
file immediate arming of Campus Security, but asked
that security be trained “if such arming should later
prove necessary.”
Campus opposition
Both the Polity Student Council and the
executive committee of the Faculty Senate at Stony
Brook have opposed the resolution. In a unanimous
vote, the Student Council voted to oppose arming
and arms training; they were later supported by the
Faculty Senate’s executive committee. “We want to
get the entire student body involved in this issue,”
said Polity President Cherry Haskins.
Stony Brook President JohnS. Toll came out in
support of the Council’s resolution on October 16.
He would begin to implement the recommendations
immediately, he said.
Oh October 18, however. President Toll reversed
himself and refused to commit himself either way on
the question of arms training. Instead, President Toll

Guidelines for arming
In May of■this year,the Board ofTrustees of the
State University of New York (SUNY) adopted
guidlines for the use and storage of firearms oh
SUNY campuses. This has provided any SUNY
president with the authority to arm CampUs
Security.
An informal survey conducted by The
Statesman, the Stony Brook newspaper, indicated
that while students generally agree that something
must be done about campus crime, they reject the
arming of Security as a solution. “Something must
be done to stop the stealing on campus, but I don’t
think guns will help,” said one student. Another
student agreed; “There should be better
enforcement on campus, but I don’t think guns are
the answer.”
The Stony Brook Council’s proposal came as
part of ten overall recommendations on campus
safety and security. It has been noted that its
recommendations are really a legal mandate to arm
because the New York State Education Law gives
responsibility for campus security and safety to the
Council.

Closing is averted as
athletic budget passes
Dr. Thomas. “In addition, we
want to be able to have some
flexibility within our budgets.”

by Dave Geringer
Sports Editor

The closing of Clark Hall was
averted Friday morning when the
athletic coaches voted to keep the
gym open and attempt to resolve
any future budget problems.
“There was agreement by the
coaches that since programs have
been initiated, we would carry
on,” said women’s basketball
coach Carolyn Thomas. The
action came after the Studeht
Assembly finally passed the
athletic budget last Tuesday.
The coaches issued a statement
calling for the establishment of an
advisory committee within the
Department of Physical
Education. The committee would
attempt to iron out potential
problems concerning future
budgets.
The statement also reiterated
the coaches’ desire for input into
their own budgets. A provision
proposed that the Athletic
Department be given the
prerogative to determine
line-by-line items in their budgets.
“We want to establish an
adivsory committee within the
department to work with Athletic
director Dr. Harry Fritz and Dan
Daniels and to work with the

�Women achieving political power (slowly)
by Renee Ryback
Spectrum

Staff Writer

“Everyone assumed I must either be sleeping
with or paying off somebody. How else could a
woman achieve such a high political position in this
country?”
So quipped Jean Westwood, former
Chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee,
as she spoke to an audience or more than 100 people
in Moot Courtroom of the John Lord O’Brien Law
Building Wednesday night. Ms. Westwood’s speech
centered around “Women in Politics,” although she
also discussed the current political scene.
Regarding the Watergate controversy, Ms.
Westwood said that one woman, a reporter, had been
paid to travel with a Democratic candidate and relay
information to the opposition. She expressed
concern that “this is typical of the kind of role a
to look for dirty
woman is asked to play
housekeeping secrets.”
...

‘Time of confusion’
Terming the current political situation “a time

of confusion between the parties,’' Ms. Westwood
named four analogous times in the history of the
United States. “In every one of those cases, a strong
but we always
third party sprang up temporarily
came bouncing back to the two-party system,” she
said. “The vast majority with unmet needs have
managed to put together a platform which
represented those needs
forming a new
coalition. This time I hope that women will be an
important part of that coalition.”
Addressing the issue of political dishonesty, she
philosophized: “Candidates don’t have to lie
they must determine where the boundary is between
being responsive to their constituents and being
leaders to their constituents,” which she felt are
often conflicting concepts. The problem now, she
said, is “the Administration is not responsive to the
people.” Conversely, “if we were always responsive
to the people, we would still have slavery.”
Describing her party, Ms. Westwood said the
Democrats welcome everyone. “We won’t solve any
problems by having an exclusionary party,” she
emphasized.
Until 1964, no connection existed between the
national and state levels of the party. At this time,
the state parties are still autonomous except in their
selection of National Convention delegates. She
described the dilemma of this relationship: “Do our
politics consist of 120 state parties in loose coalition
or are there two national parties which impose some
things on the states?”
Because she favored the ideal of women in
politics, Ms. Westwood was asked whether she would
support Julie Eisenhower if she were to run for the
Presidency. Emphatically replying, “no!” she
elaborated that a woman must be qualified in order
to run for an office, just as a man must be. She also
advocated day care facilities be instituted in
Congress to allow more women the freedom to run
for office.
Ms. Westwood strongly believes: “Our major
priority for the upcoming election is to maintain the
Democratic majority in the Senate, and achieve the

“shoo-in” in 1976? “Not if the Democratic Party
looks just like this Administration,” replied Ms.
Westwood. “The polls bear me out
the
Republican Party is down but the Democratic Party
is not up
only alienation and distress with all
politicians has grown.”
...

...

’No dearth of candidates’
Asked to speculate about future national
leadership possibilities, Ms. Westwood was hesitant.
“If I had been asked in the spring of ’69, I would
have said Ted Kennedy. I never would have thought
of George McGovern,” she explained. There is “no
dearth of candidates,” she said, but named Henry
Jackson as the probable frontrunner at this time,
followed by such Senatorial celebrities as Birch
Bayh, Edmund Muskie, and Walter F. Mondale. As
for Hubert Humphrey, “I don’t think he’ll run again
butT may be wrong,” she surmised.
Ms. Westwood discussed the good which she felt
has come about as the result of George McGovern’s
candidacy. She said the war in Vietnam was pushed
toward an end, and Watergate was brought to light,
“if you want to consider that a good point.”
Additionally, “many people were brought into the
he was their vehicle,” Ms.
political system
Westwood maintained. In essence, she said, “he
enumerated today’s problems, and somebody had to
initiate that important dialogue.”
Ms. Westwood gave a history of women’s role in
American government and politics. “It took women
72 years from the founding of this country before
they even asked for political power (in the form of
suffrage); it took another 72 years to get it,” she
said. “The first women to speak politically were
those involved in the anti-slavery movement, and, in
this case, they were not speaking for their own
rights,” Ms. Westwood continued.
At the end of the Civil War, women were
granted property rights and the right to custody of

Congressional hopeful

Westwood plans election bid
A staunch supporter of an open party, Jean
Westwood, former Chairwoman of the Democratic
National Committee, is planning to put some of her
own political ambitions into action. “I have spent all
my life working for progressive Democratic
candidates and an open party that regards the
interests of many people," she said.
Ms. Westwood, who feels it is very important to
increase liberal representation in the Senate and
Houste to override conservative vetoes, plans to run
for a seat in either of those two bodies in her home
state of Utah. Based on the results of joint voter
surveys, Ms. Westwood and Utah Representative
Wayne Owens (who is up for re-election) will
determine who has the best chance of winning each
seat.

Jean Westwood

“•Too often liberals run against each other and
then count each other off, letting the conservative
win,” she complained. If Mr. Owens decides to run
for the Senate, she will not oppose him but instead
opt for his vacated House seat. However, as of this
date, it appears she is a candidate for Senator.
Matter of law

Questioned on the present events in Washington,
Ms. Westwood observed the problem is'“not a matter
of whether one man is guilty but whether we live
under a system of law or not.” Noting she never felt
“the tapes would incriminate Nixon personally,” she
said there are many important papers and documents
which were made unavailable to Archibald Cox. “It
is an issue of the right of executive privilege,” die

“and if the House starts impeachment
proceedings, it will go ahead and get the necessary
documents.”
“Emphasizing that Watergate does not provide
an automatic advantage for the Democrats in
upcoming elections, she said: “The polls show
alienation and distrust of all politics.” The success of
the Democrats depends on the candidates, the issues,
and whether they maintain an open party, Ms.,
Westwood said.
Ms. Westwood is strongly in favor of the Equal
Rights Amendment, although she does not think it
will be ratified by the required number of states this
year. Proposed as the 27th Constitutional
Amendment, it mandates against any discrimination
on the basis of sex. If the right woman runs, there is
no reason why she shouldn’t be elected President,
Ms. Westwood said, and the fact she’s a woman
should not stop her. However, she was unwilling to
suggest a possible female Presidential candidate..
She explained why the Women’s Coalition got
shafted on the abortion issue during the McGovern
campaign in 1972: “He [McGovern] always felt
abortion should be decided by the courts or within
the individual states because of cultural and religious
differences, which affects how people react to it.”
Adding that “people automatically assumed he was
for every issue,” she said: “McGovern didn’t take his
stand in Miami and people suddenly realized
abortion was never part of the campaign.”

Good teaching sacrificed
“What makes a good teacher?” is the faculty
equivalent of “How do you measure learning?” in
the grading controversy. The qualities of a good
teacher are personal, individual
he might be
dynamic, insightful, stimulating, or simply a catalyst
for good discussion. Above all. there is a certain
rapport with his students, without which little
learning can take place.
Since the qualities of good teaching are so
individualistic, they are difficult to measure by any
objective yardstick. Publishing, however, is quite
different. A faculty member with a stack of
published books and articles can point to concrete
testimony of his professional competence, externally
verified. And it is for this reason that classroom
skills are so much more difficult to measure than
published output
that good teachers are often
overlooked when tenure is granted at this University.
Publishing is undoubtedly a vital and important
pursuit for a professional educator, and doing
research and keeping abreast in one’s field can
certainly strengthen one’s teaching abilities. But it
must be recognized that teaching as well as
publishing requires a large committment of time and
energy; and while strength in one area cannot totally
compensate for incompetence in another, strong
teaching abilities should be granted equal weight in
tenure considerations. In the past, unfortunately,
good teaching was often all but ignored. As this
Univesrity sought to bolster its “prestige” in the
academic world, an overemphasis was placed on
publishing to the detriment of students.
Almost every undergraduate at this school has
taken a course with a brilliant professor, a top
graduate of Harvard, a widely-published scholar with
renowned expertise in some area or another and a
boring, ineffective teacher. All the published articles
in the world are no help to the student who has to
sit through a semester of boredom. On the other'
hand, the last few years have seen many popular
instructors, whose courses were habitually filled with
the largest number of students, be denied tenure
to the disappointment and disillusionment of the
many students who enjoyed his teaching.
Things are slowly changing

remains the difficulty in measuring teaching ability.
First, we see no reason why instructors up for tenure
aren’t regularly observed in the classroom and
appraised by their colleagues. Trying to evaluate a
teacher without watching him teach a class is like
trying to review a book without having read it. The
it makes teachers uncomfortable, it’s
pat answers
awkward to judge colleagues are not good enough,
fter evaluation should be made a mandatory part of
tenure evaluation. Until it is officially instituted, we
urge those departments that care about the quality
of their teaching to perform such evaluation on an
informal basis.
—

-

Another method does exist, however, through
which students can influence the tenure process in
favor of good teachers, and it is a grossly underused
one. The simple process of writing a letter to the
department chairman, evaluating a teacher either
positively or negatively, is a vital source of student
input that does carry weight. And yet students
hardly ever take the trouble to do it, probably
because they feel it would have no effect. But letters
from students are read at the meetings of the
tenured faculty, who must decide which of the
eligible instructors in their department should be
granted tenure. With little other guide as to teaching
ability, complimentary letters from students are
seriously considered and a mass response from his
students will obviously weigh heavily in the teacher’s
favor.
The time to write those letters is now, as each
department is beginning its review of this year’s
instructors eligible for tenure. An instructor can
teach six years at this Univesrity; after his sixth year,
he is either granted tenure or he is released. Fruitless
complaints always arise after a popular and qualified
teacher is denied tenure, but the time students can

Lerner Colum

'

The United States is an imperial democracy, with far-flung stakes
of power abroad and the imperatives of the equal rule of law at home.
Richard Nixon has relished the role of imperial President, but he has
carried over the quality of the imperious into his dealings at home and
seems never to have learned the meaning of the rule of law as the first
citizen of the republic.
The result has been a schizoid Presidency, presided over by a
deeply split man, who is at his best in power struggles of foreign policy
but gets into messy tangles and turmoils at home that have reduced his
credibility to a new low
President Nixon has shown himself richly power-oriented, badly
equality-oriented. None of the studies of his life, including the
psychobiographies, have gone far to explain why.
Most of us have a desire to prove ourselves to friend and foe alike,
and to ourselves. It usually comes from inferiorities felt and hurts
suffered early in life.'The abrasions he experienced in the struggling,
stressful life of the storm-tossed little Nixon family in California must
have stayed with Richard Nixon the rest of his life. Certainly one of his
deepest drives has been to prove to supporters and detractors alike how
he can seize history and build that proof into history.
There is in him the constant temptation to go too far. “The Road
of Excess leads to the Palace of Wisdom” wrote William Blake in his
“Proverbs of Hell.” It has been used variously in the cults of drugs and
sexuality, but most notably in history by the governmental practice of
power-drunk leaders, and each time has proved a hellish proverb.
The Elizabethan concept of the overreacher was of a man beset by
a tragic hubris. Nixon has periodically overreached and, unfortunately
for him, his overreachings have seemed at times to pay off, as with the
bombing of Hanoi, which didn’t interfere with his reception in
Moscow. The resulting heady sense of triumph doubtless spilled over
into other efforts at overreaching. One can see how Mr. Nixon
would think of it as a daring
instead of regarding it as overreaching
way of turning history to his purposes.
This reached some kind ofclimax in his Tiring of special prosecutor
Cox. The intent was to take events by storm, the method pretty
devious. Its deviousness was reinforced by Mr. Nixon’s about-face on
the tapes when the impeachment storm broke and when the threat
grew that Judge Sirica would hold him in contempt of court.
Who can tell whether Mr. Nixon planned it that way from the
ptart, to get Cox out, or whether he miscalculated on the intensity of
the storm and retreated before it? My guess is that an element of each
entered. His primary goal was to rid himself of Cox, his secondary one
to submit the tapes in a way that might pass muster without wholly
surrendering them. When the secondary one failed, he scrapped it.
He then- scheduled a talk to-the people and scrapped it again,
presumably because of the Middle East, more probably because his last
effdrt' W a speech to the people had been a disaster, and a press
conference however dangerous might possibly fare better.
George Meany, who not so long ago preferred Mr. Nixon to George
McGovern, has blurted out the charge that Mr. Nixon is “emotionally
unstable.’’ It is a feeling that evokes echoes from others around the
country. What feeds it is the evidence of the vigils at Camp David, the
explosive actions that almost inevitably follow them, the deviousness,
the backtrackings, the self-destructive bent in a man who, only a year
ago, seemed to have it made in every way.
But I read the signs differently. An emotionally unstable man
could not conduct foreign policy with the coolness and precision that
and Secretary Kissinger under him
has used in the
Mr. Nixon
Middle EAst war and cease-fire. But the piling up of Mr. Nixon’s
personal troubles
on the tapes, the taxes, the houses, the Rebozo
SI 00,000-cache, the charge of a secret investment fund has made life
a purgatory for him and turned him into a desperate man.
No amount of further deviousness and of elaborate public
explanations, at press conferences or in speeches, will rescue him from
that. Only the pursuit of the truth, by the due process of law, can
resolve the questions that plague the people and the problems that
beset the President. .

Disappointing candidates
Buffalo voters who must choose a Mayor on
November 6 face a difficult choice. The difficulty
arises not from a close race but because neither
Republican candidate Stewart Levy nor Democratic
Mayor Stanley Makowski are offering creative
solutions for this city’s growing problems; nor are
they convincing people they will be able to halt its
deterioration.
In possibly the most low-key non-campaign in
recent urban history. Mayor Makowski has been
content to lay low, skirting the real issues facing the
city, trying to project the image of tending to
business; white Mr. Levy has fashioned a campaign of
criticizing the Mayor, but has offered few if any
positive solutions of his own. Perhaps these strategies
are mandated by the fact that Mr. Makowski, the
incumbant after succeeding Mayor Frank Sedita in
March 1973, is a Democrat in a 2-to-l Democratic
city and expects an easy win; Mr. Levy as a relatively
unknown challenger, is forced into the posture of
underdog attacker.
But regardless of campaign strategies, the issues
in this campaign have been glossed over, averted and
buried with rhetoric, and one can only assume that
neither candidate has the positive ideas this city so
sorely needs from its next Mayor. Mr. Levy has
criticized the police department, the education
system, how City Hall is managed, but he has been
short on concrete suggestions. At least he takes a
hands-off attitude on the restrictive Buffalo housing
ordinance prohibiting more than two unrelated
an ordinance whose
people from living together
enforcement would throw the already-critical
student housing situation into chaos. This legislation
of lifestyles is surely unconstitutional, and it is a
point in Mr. Levy’s favor that he, unlike Mr.
Makowski, does not support it.
But his unimaginative answers on other

he was a last-ditch candidate for the Republicans,

Executive Edward Regan, have put a great distance
between themselves and Levy’s futile Mayoral
campaign conveys the same impression.
Mr. Makowski, on the other hand, has offered
very little in the way of positive solutions in his eight
months in office. His "War on Blight,” while a
needed step, is a flashy detraction from his lack of

housing.
Revitalized housing, not merely demolition, is
essential if we are to reverse the middle-class exodus
from Buffalo. He provides little leadership on
education, instead stressing “outside consultation”
and the Board of Education’s responsibility; he has
yet to find the money promised the striking teachers
in September’s settlement.
A party man all the way, the Mayor is a
administrator;
a
low-profile,
competent
self-described “plowhorse” who places much
responsibility in his staff. Mayor Makowski will more
or less preserve the status quo; but because we feel
Buffalo’s mext Mayor should bring creative solutions
and positive programs to City Hall, we are unable to
endorse either of the two candidates.
We believe that Mr. Makowski is better qualified
than Mr. Levy to run the city government, and
would suggest voters elect the Democratic Mayor for
that reason alone; although, for the reasons
previously enumerated, we cannot make an
unqualified endorsement. One thing is clear: it is
truly regrettable when one candidate can be said to
have the election sewn up in advance simply because
he is a Democrat. What has been conspicuously
absent in these campaign months, perhaps because
they are lacking in the candidates themselves, is a
frank, serious approach to the issues. Voters must
dig beneath the rhetoric and inspect the candidate’s
stances; and if one votes for Mr. Makowski, one
should scrutinize the other races on the ballot and
attempt to choose the best candidate, not vote a
straight Democratic line. An election is the tim«. f or
debating the issues. When party considerations
obscure the issues in an election, the issues remain
obscured after that election and beyond, and
everyone is a loser.

You may have noticed a letter, or something, in last
Friday’s The Spectrum with my name at the bottom. What
happened was that a tape recorder that I had recently
received after a waiting period of several months was
stolen. It was, and is, an extremely upsetting, and
illuminating, event. I finally begin to understand a little of
what it must be like to live in a place which has recently

There is at least a illusion in my head that madness in

suddenly I am forced to deal with reality. Having worked
at Attica 1 should know that there arc in fact reasons to
protect one’s person and things under certain
circumstances. At Mariposa this summer U. Utah Phillips
made the observation that one of the codes of being a bum
or hobo was “that if you put something down, you must
be done with it.”
Basically I’m pretty disorganized. There is a hole in
the floorboard of my car which needs to be patched, my
room is a state of semi-controlled chaos most of the time,
but all in all 1 get by. Part of getting by is to push myself
into doing things on the basis that it won’t be as bad as I
thought it would, that the positive feedback thus gained
will somehow loosen me up to try more things, which will
enable me to stick my neck out somewhere else, etc. This
system has certain difficulties connected with it. Such as

Spending money on myself is a hard thing to do. Whatever
the hell that is all about I’m not sure, other than not
having much money to spend, ever, on one hand, and that
the best thing to do with anything extra was to hide it, on
the other. It is much easier to impulsively spend money on

Buying a tape recorder was thus a very risky thing, on
several levels. First it had to be justified. Which was
basically on “professional” grounds. A psychologist,
apprentice or otherwise, really needs a tape recorder
nowadays. (Rationalization is a wonderful tool.) And as
long as I was getting a tape recorder, it would obviously (?)
be more sensible to buy one with an FM radio rather than
buy a converter or something for my car.
Having completed this stage of internal negotiations, it
then became necessary to figure out what I wanted, and
how to get that in the least expensive way possible. I
would be too revealing to admit how long it took to make
a selection of the right tape recorder. Finally allowed
myself to pick out a JVC model with a two speaker
monaural system. This was a splurge, a luxury, and
admission that I really wanted to be able to make and play
cassettes of my favorite records.
Being forced to deal with the fact that I was being

wanted, it was then necessary to shop around to get the
best price on it. Wound up sending away for it. Which,
through nobody’s fault, took a long, long time to come in,
finally arriving about two weeks ago. And now it is gone.
Leaving me aware that I really am a possessive son of a
bitch. Apparently one of the reasons 1 have stayed away
from having a lot of things is that it is really easy forme to
get trapped into having and protecting possessions. 1 think.
The anger at having some thief casually stroll through
the place 1 work and steal my tape recorder is clear. That
is, the anger is clear. I said earlier that it feels as if my
personal space has been violated, and it seems that this is a
trigger to much of the feeling. (In some really removed
way, it feels as if I can touch a piece of what it was like to
be raped, to have not only your space, but your body,
violated. I run out of words and sit and shudder.)
My ability to move in the world has much to do
insisting that 1 am paranoid, and things aren’t as bad as I
am afraid they are. I say this again because it is an
extremely baric piece of reality for me. There is enough

My response is to start distrusting everybody, to perceive
strangers as nothing but another threat in any instance
where they start to get near me. The feeling is something
along the line of being able to trust no one but yourself, or
having to maintain a constant state of alert. It feels awful.
It does not seem to me that I really require that much
space, that it has been difficult for me to fit my space
needs around other peoples. But from wherever it came it
seems that I do feel better when there is an inviolable

Having something ripped off

really safe. It is easy to cover the anxiety and fear by
talking about existential philosophy, about how the whole
thing is a gamble anyway, so that it should be possible to
calmly recognize the fact that safety doesn’t exist, except
on a probability basis.
It isn’t a calming thought to me, that the potential for
getting stung for something is an actuarial reality and one
can reasonably assume to lose X amount of money in
losses to people whose work is based on picking up what
other people put down. I was fuming when 1 offered twice

Bureau has invited Mr. Lester Maddox
to the UJL campus and (2) that efforts are being
made to have the S.A. sponsor a conference of
racism. I feel compelled to express my opinion about
each of these proposed events.
First, I should like to express my aversion to Mr.
Maddox’s presence as a SA. sponsored speaker on
thU campus. Providing a forum for Mr. Maddox, it
seems to me, is not unlike providing a forum for the
anti-intellectual anti-semitism of the Nazis: nor are
the social conditions in the U.S. unlike those in Nazi
Germany where racism was a tradition and where the
political, economic and intellectual (including
the

“scientific” eugenics) climate gave racist ideology
the impetus it assumed.
I cannot imagine medical students of sound
judgment invg and paying a “no-nothing” quack
doctor to expound on the health issues of our time
certainly
let alone on the virtues of disease
freedom of speech would not be raised in the
defense of such a “doctor”. Since Mr. Maddox has
never analyzed the dimensions of racism nor the
social condition’s which influence it (on the cpntrary
he has perpetuated both) the comparing of Mr.
Maddox to the quack doctor seems appropriate.
Secondly, I should like to express my support
for a conference on racism and indicate my
willingness to help make this event a success.

The planned appearance of Lester Maddox is no
joke. He is coming to UB for the purpose of
whipping up racism and encouraging racists. Some

We demand that the Student Association cancel

�Editor’s note; This b the first in a series of articles covering the
upcoming state and Buffalo elections. Today’s articles describe the
positions of the two major candidates for Mayor of Buffalo. The
Spectrum invites comments on these articles, and urges all students to
vote in the upcoming election.

Makowski
Buffalo Mayor Stanley Makowski took office in March 1973
following the resignation of Mayor Frank Sedita. Mr. Makowski, a
Detnocrat, is seeking to retain his job and is a heavy favorite to extend
his tenure for four more years. These are Mr. Makowski’s stand on the
issues:

"

jVv

Convention Center: the Mayor fully supports the proposed Convention
Center and its suggested site: ‘There is a real need for additional
revenues. The net result of building the Convention Center would be
added revenues for operations and maintenance for the Board of
Eudcation, street repair and other matters.” Mr. Makowski also feels
that the full cost of the proposal is warranted. If voters should approve
the center in the upcoming referendum, it will be built on its planned
site. The site was determined by the consulting firm hired to draw up
the plans, Mr. Makowski pointed out.
Diminishing population of the city: Mr. Makowski feels the Convention
Center and his “War on Blight” will bring people back into the city.
Terming the new lakefront housing development a “gem,” Mr.
Makowski said that the basin-marina plans coupled with the
construction of the Holiday Inn and Erie Community College will help
to restore vitality to the downtown area. Mr. Makowski favors “more
green-space for recreation, culture and safety.” Most streets in the city
are safe, he said, although the public may not perceive them as safe.
Although not primarily interested in attracting people into Buffalo, Mr.
Makowski plans to focus his attention on “changing attitudes and
satisfying the 460,000 people presently living within the city. The
middle- and high-income people are moving out, leaving the poorer
people and senior citizens. The senior citizens comprise 55% of the
city’s population,” he observed.
Housing Codes: The Mayor has already begun his “War on Blight” with
“mass demolitions, individuals and non-profit organizations taking over
deteriorated property, supported by bank loans for rehabilitative
purposes.” Mr. Makowski said 1,000 houses had already been
demolished. Only those that could not be rehabilitated, however, are
tom down. Mr. Makowski supports “uniform administration of housing
codes” as well as the ordinance prohibiting more than two unrelated
people living together. He did not state his reasons for supporting this
ordinance.
Thirteenth Judgeship: “No comment” because it is presently in
litigation (statement made before final appeal failed]. The Mayor
insisted that a thirteenth judge for housing cases is necessary for the
war on blight to be effective: “The cancer of urban blight needs a
--H.j
'
full-time judge.”
West Side Highway: The Mayor favors the construction of the
Highway. ‘The Puerto Ricans are suffering there because of poor
buildings and vandalism.” Were the Highway to be built, he said, the
city would assist the residents of that area in finding better (Mayor’s
emphasis) homes than they are presently living in. A decision on the
construction will be made by next spring.
Rapid Transit: A rapid transit line in the Buffalo area has been the
Mayor’s “dream.” Terming it a “critical” issue, the Mayor personally
favors an underground system, but if a compromise is needed to
implement the plan, he would favor the compromise. Mr. Makowski
mentioned the possibility of using a monorail, as is used in Seattle.
Sanitation; The Mayor feels that sanitation efforts are “doing well, and
I hope we improve as we go along.” He feels that recycling is a good
idea, particularly in light of the shortage of space available for disposal
of garbage. Mr. Makowski also feels the state will have to lend
additional help to improve the sanitation situation.
Busing and East High School; “I am against forced busing,” said the
Mayor. At East High School approximately 12 students have refused to
attend the predominantly black school and requested to be bussed to
another school. The Mayor refused to comment on the East High
School controversy, charging that it was a matter for the Board of
Education to handle. However, he added; “No parent has the right to
keep his child from school. The parent should send the child elsewhere,
because education is so vital.” The Mayor does favor voluntary busing,
however, and suggested the East High students transfer to another
school.
Education: Education here is in need of “improvement,” and Mr. Mr.
Makowski feels a realistic look at the operation is needed: “We should
consult with outsiders to see what can be done.” The Mayor proposed
that each teacher be accountable for each of his students. This
accountability would require teachers to be directly responsible for
their students’ progress.
Women and Blacks: Mr". Makowski would like to accelerate the number
of minorities employed by the city government. He enumerated the
minority group members employed by the city, commenting that they
were doing a good job.
No-ahaw 'Jobs: Following the .firing of Jim Donahue, Lt. McDonnel is
now investigating the problem: ‘We are continuing to operate an
absentee investigating unit and will seek out those who are slack in
their work,” Mr. Makowski said.

�Levy

s.

Republican candidate Stewart M. Levy is facing an uphill battle in
November’s mayoralty election. Mr. Levy is presently vice-president of
a Rochester management and consulting firm and is running an
under-financed campaign. His stands on the issues:
Rapid Transit: Mr. Levy feels the portion of the rail line planned for
the city should be underground, and feels this arrangement will benefit
the city. Concerning the controversy over the section outside the city
that is planned as an overhead line, Mr. Levy feels it would not hurt the
environment, but, because he is running for city office, he is not
especially concerned with the fate of the suburbs. Generally, Mr. Levy
gave his support to the entire rapid transit system.
Housing Codes: Mr. Levy feels there is a desperate need to “re-vamp all
the city ordinances regarding the housing situation.” “We are dealing
with antiquated codes, enacted in 1909. We need more flexibility.” Mr.
Levy does not support the ordinance stating that no more than two
unrelated people can live together in Buffalo: “I can’t be God and tell
anyone how to live their lives. If people want to live together, then let
them.”
Sanitation: “We have to put people on the garbage runs who work,”
Mr. Levy said, implying that part of the sanitation problems are closely
related to the no-show scandals in City Hall. Mr. Levy pointed to the
high rate of absenteeism as contributing to the fact that people don’t
know when garbage is to be picked up. Mr. Levy feels there is no
particular need for additional pick-ups: “Just get the people who are
supposed to be working back to work.”
Thirteenth Judgeship: Mr. Levy feels that the creation of a new post is
“unneeded,” and that using one judge from the existing twelve as a
housing judge would be more economical and equally feasible. A new
judge would cost the city over $100,000 annually, Mr. Levy contended.
Model Cities; “Some programs were good, some were clearly bad, and
others were rip-offs, but the intent of the program was great. The
problem was in poor administration,” he claimed. The candidate would
like to see some new experimental programs begun, and some of the
older, better-established programs reinstated. “Innovation is
important,” Mr. Levy noted.
Convention Center: “I favor the Convention Center as a concept, but 1
can probably build it for $9 million instead of $14 million by moving it
tliree blocks.” There is available land there that is not producing any
revenue, Mr. Levy said. He also feels that the referendum on the
November ballot will indicate that the convention center will be built
at its proposed site because of a concurrent Common Council
resolution. The resolution states if the Convention Center referendum
is approved by the voters, it will be located where it is presently
planned.
Crime: Mr. Levy called for the re-training and refurbishing of the Police
Department to “re-equip them for human relations.” We have the
largest per-capita police force in the nation, Mr. Levy claims, and there
is no reason they shouldn’t be well-trained.
West Side Highway: The highway plan has no direction, Mr. Levy said,
and is presently just a dream. It will eventually become a reality, he
said, but he feels the highway would be unnecessary if the planned
rapid transit line were implemented. However, the area “must be
rebuilt, and deterioration and demolition stopped, until the fate of the
area is certain,” he said.
Busing: “According to federal and state law, busing is not mandatory,
is voluntary,” Mr. Levy said. “If busing is on a voluntary basis, a
student can be bused anywhere within his zone.” Asked whether the
city will lose federal subsidies for not integrating the schools, Mr. Levy
said: ‘That is a matter for interpretation.” Whatever decision is reached
in the East High School controversy, Mr. Levy said, will affect
everybody, not just the twelve families involved.
Women and Blacks; Appointing minorities to City Hall jobs would be
based on ability, not party affiliations, said Mr. Levy. “Motivation of
people is the most important aspect” of determining whether an
individual is qualified to perform a specific job, the Republican
candidate said: “We need the kind of people that come to work.”
Referring to no-show investigator Jim Donahue, who was recently fired
by Mayor Makowski, Mr. Levy said he was dismissed “for doing his
job.”
Minimum Wage Veto; Mr. Levy accused Mayor Makowski of running a
“showboat” campaign, exemplified by Mr. Makowski’s letter to Buffalo
Congressmen urging them to override the President’s minimum wage
veto. He “would not lobby” for an increase in the minimum wage, he
said, because that is a Federal matter, and did not concern him as a
Buffalo mayoral candidate.
Diminishing City Population; ‘There are two major factors
contributing to people leaving the city. One is
standards,
and the other is unsafe streets.” Young families are not attracted to live
here because of inadequate education and increasing costs, he believes.
Additionally, the city as a whole is behind in reading levels, but we are
spending more than any other comparable city on education. ‘The
mayor has nothing to do with the Board of Education,” Mr. Levy said.
However, he proposed that there be a full accounting procedure before
presenting the education budget, with emphasis on individual line
accounts, not lump sum expenditures. Operating statements received
on time, not a year late, as was done this year, would also save money,
Mr. Levy said. Additionally, the capital improvements on schools
already paid for should be made.

Communication

New faculty-student forum
by Guy Lewitt
Spectrum

Staff Writer

The Student-Faculty
coordinating committee was voted
into existence at a recent meeting
of the Faculty-Senate executive
committee (FSEC).
The proposal was implemented
to “bring the students and faculty
members into closer contact,”
said Student Association President
Jon Dandes. “There is no real*
communication between the
FSEC and the student body,” Mr.
Dandes said, and he hopes this
committee will correct that
situation.
Several problems termed
“minor” in the past will be
discussed and acted on in future
Student-Faculty Committee
meetings, Mr. Dandes believes.
Referring to the events of last
year’s FSEC meeting concerning
faculty majors, Mr. Dandes said
students indicated general desire
to change the declaration of
majors from specific to general.
Instead of a student indicating
Biology or Chemistry as a major,
the student would simply write
“natural science.” As a result of
that meeting, the heads of each
department were asked to compile
a report concerning the issue. The
deadline set for the reports was
September 1973. However, only

that the extra-terrestrial visitor, animal or person,

Mount Airy, North Carolina, Wednesday night and

different lights and shapes, before they disappeared
at high speed.
Belton said he and Snow drove out to
investigate a report by a rural resident, Daniel Dean,
who said: “There’s a flying saucer that went down
here at Buck Shoals Pond.” The deputies reported
seeing a strange light along the Arrarat River south
of town when they arrived, with the object emitting
a strange, high-frequency humming noise..

Throughout the country there have been
numerous sightings of UFO’s
unidentified flying
objects. The descriptions of these ominous visions
have ranged from bright lights moving across the sky
to actual “spacemen,” clothed in luminous suits
complete with antennae projecting from their heads.
Such observances were reported by police, newsmen,
and scientists as well as the genral public.

Ms. Westwood then described the period of
World War II, during which “women’s involvement
while the men were away finally brought them a new

these women were widows with children to raise,

“The third phase,” as Ms. Westwood described

Attica Grand Jury Aik* Move
. ROCHESTER, N.Y. (UP!)
Attorneys for five men
indicted by the special grand jury probing the 1971 Attica
prison riot have asked the Appellate Division of state
Supreme Court to move the trials to New York City.
The five were indicted by the Wyoming County grand
jury last August in connection with the rebellion that took
43 lives. Lawyers for the men argued Tuesday that since
their clients come from the New York City area it would
be easier and more convenient to prepare their cases there.
Former Attica inmates indicted by the grand jury last
December have had their trials moved from Wyoming
County to Erie County. At that time, the grand jury
handed up 37 indictments naming 60 n^en.

Discrimination against men?
WASHINGTON (DPI) The Supreme Court, which

On Tuesday the. court granted a hearing to a Miami
widower, Mel Kahn, who is challenging part of Florida’s
tax law. The statute grants a $500 property tax exemption
to widows but not widowers.
Kahn contended he was denied the benefit of the law
solely because he is a man. The case will be heard in the
high court in the next few months.
At the same time the court turned back to a lower

Judge Drops Charges Against Attica Inmate
State Supreme Court
BUFFALO* (N.Y.) UP1
Justice Carman F. Ball has dismissed two of the four
charges against former Attica prison inmate Richard Bilello
in connection with the Attica prison rebellion.
Bilello, 43, of New York City and six others were
charged with two counts of coercion and two counts of
unlawful imprisonment in an indictment returned by the
special Wyoming County grand jury investigating the 1971
prison uprising.
Ball’s action was the first dismissal of any charges
against the men indicted by the panel, which is still in
session. Bilello is currently serving a life sentence in
another state prison and is also named in another
indictment charging him and others with 34 counts of first

Sexuality workshop begins
The first in a series of workshops entitled “The
Dynamics of Human Sexuality” got under way Tuesday
evening at 7:30 p.m. in room 231 Norton Hall. Originally
offered as a course available only to students in
health-related fields, the workshop is designed to facilitate
a better understanding of human sexuality among all
interested members of the university community.
Tuesday’s workshop on “Human Sexual Response”
focused on a discussion of the body and its response to
erotic stimuli.
“The Dynamics of Human Sexuality” is sponsored by
the Life Workshops and will be held every Tuesday until
the end of November. Various aspects of sexuality will be
presented by specialists in related fields followed by small
group discussions. Future workshops include:
“Psychological Aspects of Human Sexuality,” October 30:

�Soviet Jews

Scientist’s family persecuted
Editor’s Note: Joseph Merrick,
professor of Microbiology here, sent us the
following letter describing the difficulties
experienced by a Soviet Jewish scientist
because of his desire to emigrate to Israel
To the President of the American
National Academy of Sciences, Dr. Philip
Handler;
To the President of the Royal Society,

Dr. Alan Hodgkin;
To the Universities which have
honoured me by inviting me as a Visiting
Professor;
To all those scientists
concerned about my fate;

who

are

Dear Colleagues and Friends:

You have already shown deep concern
about my family’s and my own fate, for
which I am very grateful. That is why I am
sure that this appeal of mine will be heard
by you as well. At present, I am asking for
more than your support; help me save my
son. More than fifteen months have passed
since my family and I applied for exit visas

to Israel. Since then we have gone through

all kinds of harassment and hardship. We
have been suffering various persecutions, as
is known to many of you. You may be
aware that on May 8th, a meeting of the
Chemical Department of the Academy of
Sciences was held, with the question of my
expulsion from the Academy being
discussed. I was officially alleged to
damage this country by my “unworthy
behavior.” This, however, turned out to be
insufficient; for my son, Evgeny Levich,
25, an astro-physicist, Doctor of Sciences,
was seized on May 16th in the street while
on the way to the hospital, where he was
sent by military authorities for a medical
examination.
As has been officially confirmed,
instead of being admitted to this hospital,
Evgeny Levich was drafted as a private
without any medical examination
whatsoever. That same day he was taken
away to Eastern Siberia. There is now some
information about his being sent out to a
military unit, located on the shores of the
Arctic Ocean, with extremely hard
conditions of service. He is cut off from

any kind of communication with us.
Meanwhile. Evgeny Levich is seriously ill.
According to medical data available, he has
been suffering from ulcerous colitis and
multiple diverticulosis of the bowels.
Moreover, and this is the wont, a burner
was recently found in his rectum. Its
nature is not yet known, since the
examination being performed by the
Moscow Cancer Dispensary was interrupted
because of the events described above. It is
quite obvious to anyone that Evgeny is
seriously ill and that his detention in such
harsh conditions creates a menacing
situation.
Dear colleagues and friends, the very life
of a young man is at stake and this is
caused by the fact that my family and 1
have dared to express an intention to
realize the most fundamental of human
liberties, the liberty to choose the country
of one’s residence. I have appealed to my
colleagues, foreign and soviet scientists of
high rank, for help. 1 have appealed to high
authorities of this country. All my requests
to observe principles of hamanism and
legality have been in vain.

1 believe that is within your possibilities
to convince the top authorities of this
country that the cruel, inhuman actions
described above, should not be put up with
in a civilized society, and can hardly
contribute to die development of mutual
understanding and friendly cooperation
between the world’s scientific community
and that of the USSR. I appeal to you to
use all your influence possible in order to
save the life of a young scientist.

-Professor Benjamin Levich,
MOSCOW, May 25. 1973
Footnote by Prof. D.B. Spalding,
Imperial College, London, SW7, who
received the above message by telephone
from Moscow:
It is now known that Evgeny has been
sent to Tiksi, in the Arctic. No place more
remote and severe could have been chosen.
The abrupt and extraordinary manner of
Evgeny’s apprehension (the trick order to
report to a hospital; the kidnapping on the
street; the instant transportation to
Siberia) demonstrates at once the punitive,
furtive, and illegal nature of the operation.
Telegrams to Mr. Brezhnev, with copies
to the President of the Academy of
Sciences of the USSR, are the best means

ofprotest.

�Polled voters indicate Republican Party mistrust
The

By Louis Harris
The sagging political fortunes of the
Nixon administration are having a
devastating effect on Republican prospects
for Congress in 1974. A recent Harris
Survey of likely voters shows the
Democrats with a wide, 53-31 percent lead
incurrent
preference between party
candidates in next year’s contests for the
House of Representatives.
This is a drop of 8 points in the
Republican column from a comparable
survey taken last Spring. Periodically, the
Harris Survey has asked a nationwide cross
section of likely voters: “In the election
next year in 1974, for Congress here in
your District, if you had to decide right
now, would you vote for the Republican or
Democratic candidate for Congress?”

The 22-point Democratic lead in the
the House is based on
in-person interviews in a recent nationwide
sample of 1,491 households. It is the most
sizable margin the Harris Survey has
recorded in a decade, and far surpasses the
Democratic showing even in the landslide
year of 1964. It contrasts, for example,
with the 56-44 percent margin by which
the Democrats carried Congress only a year
ago.

Most serious for the Republicans is their
relatively poor showing in the Midwest and
in the West. If current Democratic leads
were to hold through November, 1974, the
G.O.P. would suffer heavy losses in their
Coiigressional delegations in those regions.
Equally serious is the weakness of the
Republicans among older voters, normally
strong for the G.O.P. but who now seem
more shocked by the Watergate and Agnew
disclosures than any other segment of the
electorate.
These results offer ample testimony to
the damage that the events of the past six

Since 1968, voter loyalty toward the
Democratic party has slipped some, but no
more than 3 points, down from 51 to 48
percent. The hard-core Republican vote,
meanwhile, has dropped by 5 points, from
32 down to 27 percent. The Independent
category has been the beneficiary of the
losses of the two major parties, rising from
17 to 25 percent of the total electorate
over the past five years.
The Democrats, however, are still close
to holding an absolute majority in the
country, while the Republicans are not

‘We have to run,
Richardson says
by Dave Hnath
Spectrum Staff Writer

With the Bulls facing their
toughest schedule in Buffalo
basketball history, coach Leo
Richardson enters his first season
at the helm with a giant rebuilding
job ahead of him. Replacing four
graduated starters will be no easy
task, but Richardson feels he has

holder of many of the scoring and
all the rebounding records at
Buffalo. “Right now,” said
Richardson, “we have three
possibilities for the center spot,
listed in this order: Michael Jones,
Thomas Tobias, and Jim
Slayton.” Jones, a 6-614 freshman,
and Tobias, a 6-5 junior college
transfer from Kansas, are both
newcomers to Buffalo. Slayton
returns from Richardson’s junior
varsity squad last year, where he
started at center much of the
latter part of the season.

The cross-country Bulls split
their five-way meet last
Wednesday at Niagara. Buffalo
scored 15-48 victories over
Canisius and Gannon, but
dropped matches to Buffalo State
and the Purple Eagles by 22-35
and 15-50. Niagara nosed out the
Bengals 28-30 to sweep the meet.
The split gave Buffalo a 6-10
record this season.
Freshman Angelo Rivera
surprised with his twelfth-place

captain Bruce Tuttle who finished

third and fourth runners were
Bengals, and Niagara was holding
the seven remaining spots in the
top ten. Afterwards, McDonough
admitted that the Bulls were
really outclassed: “I wasn’t
expecting us to beat Buff State or
Niagara too much, anyhow.” The
race marked the second time this
season that Buffalo has lost to the
Bengals and the Purple Eagles.
One of the most interesting
events this season took place
during the race. After the first
handful of runners had crossed a
pair or railroad tracks on the
course, the gates came down and
many of the remaining runners
were forced to stop and allow a
train to pass. This was by no
means the first time that a train
had held up a race at Niagara,
observers noted.
Injuries continue to haunt the
Bulls. Bob Curtis is still missing
from the lineup due to a shin
injury and is not expected to run
in tomorrow’s home meet against
Brockport, but McDonough is
hoping that he will be ready for

Championships at Fredonia on

Though Coach Jim
McDonough ventured no pre-race

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

The

but broaden its inquiry into the

“proceed full steam ahead” with
its impeachment inquiry, said its
chairman, Rep. Peter Rodino Jr.

Racist practices condemned
“You can’t get rid of racism when the ruling
class depends on it.”
This assessment, by Robert Leonhardt of the
National Committee of the Progressive Labor Party,
helped launch the Student Association’s all-day
Teach-In on Racism Wednesday. Expounding on the
interdependence of racism and capitalism, Mr.
Leonhardt told the Conference Theater audience:
“Under capitalism there is a need for a reserve labor
corps, with blacks at the bottom of the labor force.”
Fighting racism is a matter of material interest to
everyone, Mr. Leonhardt maintained, and “only
under socialism can the basis of the profit system be
ended.”
Black Student Union member Hugh Basset said;
“In 1973, black people should not be concerned with
racism; genocide is a brand new ball game.” He cited
the plight of American Indians as an example of the
same “systematic” genocide currently affecting
blacks.

Equality abanoned
Mr. Basset was unable to see any workable
alliance between blacks and whites, pointing out the
white student movement’s abandonment of racial
equality in favor of protesting the Vietnam war.

to Huey Newton, Eldridge Cleaver and
Martin Luther King, he said blacks are without
leadership roles because the ruling forces attack any
black leaders “once they step out into the
forefront.”
The public school system came under heaviest
attack for its “psychological killing,” a process of
twelve years of brainwashing. IQ tests were viewed
by Mr. Basset as instruments for subordinating
blacks. He contrasted the abundance of free birth
control devices with the lack of free medical benefits
in the ghetto as another example of genocide. “It is
too late to reverse the trend,” he contended.
‘To crush racism, we’ve got to destroy this
whole goddamn system,” affirmed Sylvia Dick of the
Progressive Labor Party. However, she disagreed with
Alluding

Mr. Basset’s pessimism regarding black-white unity.
Racism in the classroom is “a vital, controversial
issue in education today,” said Roger R. Woock,
Chairman of the Department of Social Foundations
of Education at Buffalo. He predicts that the 1970’s
will see a “counter-attack” against the liberal, free
school education of the ’60’s.” A general critique of
the various institutions in the ’60’s produced this
counter-offense. Dr. Woock claimed.
One method of implementing stricter societal

guidelines is by establishing racism as a biologically
scientific fact. This is done at The State University
of Buffalo course through the use of racist texts, said
Charles Reitz, head of Buffalo’s Progressive Labor
Party, who read what he considered racist passages
from many current University texts.

Anit-bUck bias alleged
The Psychology of Learning and Instructions by
DeCecco is a standard educational psychology text
presently used at this University. This book
contained many fallacies and half-truths, claimed Mr.
Reitz. In one part of the text it states, “We shall
frequently refer to intelligence and intelligence test
scores as I.Q.,” Mr. Reitz quoted from the text.
‘The book then goes on to correlate blacks’ lower
I.Q. scores with lower intelligence,” said Mr. Reitz.
Dr. Woock indicated that this correlation was
another means by which the present society
maintains its power and control.
Foundations of Psycholgy by Dr. Vinacke,
currently being used as a basic Psychology 101 text,
was also condemned for containing racist bias.
“Cultural deprivation” is the reason given for the
blacks’ “lack of intelligence” in this book, said Mr.
Reitz. As indicated on a Students for a Democratic
Society (SDS) handout regarding this text: “Vinacke
implies that some people are inferior, i.e., less human
than others. These theories of cultural deprivation
are nothing but racist lies. Far from having damaged

Soviet drops Mideast role after U.S. Army alert

The United States ordered thousands of
elite troops and Air Force units throughout
the world, including some nuclear bomber
crews, on “precautionary” alert yesterday
after getting word Soviet troops might be
sent to the Mideast for peace-keeping duty.
Military sources said they could not
remember an alert so widespread since the
Cuban missile crisis of 1962. It affected
virtually every American military base
around the world to some extent.
The alert was issued after Moscow
delivered what Senator Henry M. Jackson,
(D., Wash.) described as “a rough and
brutal note” regarding the possibility the
Soviets might unilaterally send troops to
police the cease-fire.
But following the worldwide U.S.
military alert, the Soviet Union announced
it would not insist on sending Soviet troops
to the Mideast as part of a U.N.
peace-keeping force to police the cease-fire.
The Soviet announcement late yesterday
assured passage of a U.N. resolution to
send a peace-keeping force to the Mid east,
but one which would exclude troops from
v

permanent
members of the Security
Council (U.S., U.S.S.R., China, Britain,
France). Egypt requested Wednesday that
the US. and Soviet Union send troops to
police the Mideast cease-fire, but the U.S.
rejected
any
form of superpower
involvement, suggesting instead that a U.N.
force excluding the Big Five powers be sent
to the Middle East.

Alert ‘precautionary’
“The United States has no intention of
sending troops into the Middle East. We
hope no other outside parties will send
troops to the Middle East.” Informed
sources sa id Secretary of State Henry
Kissinger had told Soviet ambassador
Anatoly Dobrynin it would be unwise for
the Kremlin to act unilaterally to police
the cease-fire. This followed demands by
non-aligned nations that the U.N. send a
peace-keeping force to the Mideast, and a
note from Mr. Dobrynin to Dr. Kissinger
regarding the possibility of sending Soviet
troops to the Mideast.
Dr. Kissinger said’ yesterday the United

States is opposed to introduction of any
troops from any major power in the
Mideast. He conferred earlier this morning
with President Nixon, then joined in a

briefing for Congressional leaders before

the alert was issued.
House Speaker Carl Albert stressed
afterward
overwhelming
that
“the
emphasis” was on a diplomatic solution to
the Mideast war and that the alert was

precautionary.

Egypt asked Wednesday that a U.S.
Soviet peace-keeping force be formed, but
the United States quickly responded that it
had no intention of joining in such a move.
American sources said this was because
the administration wanted to avoid any
risk of a situation where troops of the
superpowers might face each other in a
combat situation. Several non-aligned
countries called for the U.N. Security
Council to create “immediately a U.N.
emergency force under its authority”
yesterday, and asked Secretary General
Kurt Waldheim to report within 24 hours
-

of the resolution’s passage on steps taken
to set it up.

The United States reportedly sought to

amend the resolution to have the U.N.
cmbergency force exclude permanent
members of the Security Council.

Yesterday the Soviet announcement that it
would not insist on sending Russian troops
seemed to assure passage of the amended
version.
The U.S. move was seen as another ploy
by Washington to prevent the cntcry of
Soviet troops into the Middle East. It

coincided with an alert of U.S. armed
forces in response to reports of Soviet
troop movements.

“The United States believes that what is
needed above all,” Dr. Kissinger said, “is a
determination of the facts of who is in
what position and who is doing the
shooting. Then the Security Council can
take action on the violations.
“It is inconceivable that we should
transplant the great power rivalries into the
Mideast or that we should set up a great
power condominium over the Mideast.”

up, he said. ‘That will only be possible after several

Dr. Reveal also said he believes, ‘There is no

my colleagues. But that is not a unanimous

note: The following article was reprinted

from the University ofMaryland’s Diamondback.

Anybody who has been arrested for a marijuana
violation might be able to get off scot-free, thanks to
a recently-surfaced legal controversy over exactly
what constitutes illegal marijuana.
A defendant was freed in Florida state circuit
court last April by pleading that only one vareity of
marijuana, Cannabis sativa, was prohibited by law.
The marijuana the defendant was caught with, the
defesne said, in State v. Wilcox, might be any one of
several types of marijuana, all of which are
indistinguishable from each other.
However, a similar defense was recently rejected
by a New York federal court, which ruled that
Congress intended to prohibit use of all varieties of
marijuana, and therefore the type of defense used in
State vs. Wilcox was inadmissible.

Confidential

Health excuses only
accessible to students
Have you ever missed an
exam because of illness, only
to receive a skeptical look from

your professor?
A new Health

Service
“excuse
policy,”
enabling
students to obtain written
verification of an illness, will
take effect this semester.
Previously,
any
faculty
member demanding proof of
an absence could phone or visit
Health Service' personally to
verify that a student had
actually gone there on a certain
date.
However, said Student
Rights
coordinator
Cliff
Palefsky, the old policy was a
“violation of confidentiality,"
asserting:

“Anyone

who
identified themself as a faculty

member in person, or even over
the phone, could obtain what
is
sometimes
privileged
information pertaining to a
student patient.” In a letter
addressed to Paul Hoffman,
director of University Health
Service, Mr. Palefsky asked
that only students be allowed
to obtain verification of their
visit by requesting it in person.

Confidences respected
Reluctant to institute the
change. Dr. Hoffman did not
feel that informing a teacher of
a student’s visit to Health
Service

violated

any

confidences. Referring to the
American
College
Health
Association Guidelines, he said
the faculty is entitled to
receive information of this
sort.
Dr.
Additionally,
Hoffman predicted it would be
more trouble to “ask a student
to sign a paper in person to
back him up because he missed
an exam.”

At the urging of vice
president for Health Services

Carter
and
Pannill
Mr.
Palefsky, Dr. Hoffman issued a

memo outlining
the
new
procedure: “No information,
including the fact of a visit,

may be transmitted outside of
the Health Service without the

written consent of the student
patient.” The memo also
specified that “with permission

of the student, a nurse may
transmit the fact of a student’s
visit, and a physician may
transmit the particulars of an
illness.” However, it added;
“Even with the student's
permission, no detailed medical
and absolutely not psychiatric
information will be transmitted

for evaluation purposes.”
Supporting this change,
Dr. Pannill said: “A student’s
rights should be respected. The
University is not anyone’s
parent or guardian.” He added:
“It is the student’s business to
tell someone he went to seek
care.”

How many kinds?
Whether there is more than one variety of
marijuana, and whether current laws ban only one
vareity, are subjects “of considerable controversy at
the moment,” according to Roger Canaff of the
federal Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA).
The law in Maryland defines marijuana as “all
parts of the plant Cannabis sativs L, whether
growing or not; the seeds thereof; the resin extracted
from any part of such plant, and every compound,
manufacture, salt, derivative, mixture, or preparation
of such plant, its seeds or resin ..except for
certain limited legal uses.
The federal Comprehensive Drug Abuse
Prevention and Control Act, the Washington, D.C.
marijuana law and the laws of many other states
employ nearly identical language.
Five types
There is some contention, however, that
Cannabis sativa is only one of five separate species of
the weed, expalined James L. Reveal, assistant
professor of botany at the University of Maryland.
These five types are: Cannabis sativa, which
today grows throughout Jthe world; and four types
which grow mainly in Asia, Cannabis indica.
Cannabis gigantea, Cannabis ruderalis and a yet
unnamed species from Afghanistan.
Cannabis sativa is the weakest hallucinogenic of
the five species, Dr. Reveal said, but it is the one that
grows most widely in the United States.
“Cannabis sativa, in the strict sense, is not
particularly hallucinogenic,” he explained. “You can
go and pick half a ton of the stuff and maybe,
maybe, get a high.”
Mexican Cannabis sativa is said to be more
potent a hallucinogenic than the American species,
Reveal continued, but he speculated that the
difference might be caused by the different climate
or by the fact that the plant is not sativa at all, but
the more potent indica.
“Cannabis indica is exceedingly hallucinogenic,”
Reveal said, while Cannabis gigantea, which grows to
be. 20 feet tall, is probably the most potent species.
Cannabis ruderalis, which is recognized by the
US. government as a variety of marijuana, has never
been studied for its hallucinogenic properties. Dr.
Reveal said, but he added that he suspects it is a
fairly mild plant. The Afghanistanian species, he
continued, is about as potent as indica.
“There is no way in the world to distinguish

His opinion was countered by Mr. Canaff of the
DEA. ‘The majority of the botanical community
regards this (marijuana) as monotypic (of one
species)” Canaff said. Nevertheless, Mr. Canaff
added, “Some change will have to be made in the
statutes.”
As long as the US. government recognizes
Cannabis ruderalis. Dr. Reveal explained, a
defendant charged with illegal possession or sale of
Cannabis sativa might be able to claim that his
product is indistinguishable from ruderalis, which is
not illegal. This was the defense used in (he Florida
case of State v. Wilcox.
If the prosecution cannot prove that the
defendant’s marijuana is Cannabis sativa, a claim that
might be accepted if the prosecution can show that
the marijuana comes from the US., the court would
have to throw out the case, Dr. Reveal said.
But if the action of the New York federal court
is upheld, he continued, and courts continue to
declare inadmissible evidence based on the
assumption that only sativa is illegal, the Wilcox
defense would be worthless, he added.

EXPIRES Nov. 2nd 73

Censure proposal rejected
by Larry Kraftowitz
Campus Editor

In the tension-filled atmosphere of Haas Lounge
Tuesday, the Student Assembly overwhelmingly
rejected a motion to censure chairman Dave Saleh
“for neglecting his duties as vice president.”
IN a 4-41-3 vote, the Assembly rejected
allegations that Mr. Saleh, Student Association
Executive vice president, had failed to run SA
meetings impartially and supply the Assembly with
“proper information in due time.”
The censure proposal was drawn up at a meeting
of a Student Assembly caucus on October 19. At
that time, several caucus members had strongly
criticized the Executive Committee as being a closed
clique which refused any sort of input from the
general Assembly body. They accused the executives
of dominating Assembly meetings because Mr. Saleh,
as Chairman, would allegedly recognize only those
members who agreed with Executive Committee

attempting to censure Mr. Saleh before taking less
drastic measures. “We brought up a censuring
motion, but we really didn’t go t6 Dave Saleh and
try to straighten things out,” Mr. Jackolone said.
“When it comes down to cooperation between the
two groups, we should talk things over instead of
immediately censuring anyone.”

‘Pressure psychology’
Dismayed at the overwhelming support for Mr.
Saleh, despite reports that more than 20 votes had
been “lined up” against him before the Assembly
meeting began, one caucus member said: “Everyone
in here copped out. It’s a prime example of pressure
psychology.”
IN addition, the Assembly finally approved the
much-delayed Athletic budget at $217,669 by a vote
of 40-4-2. Treasurer Ken linker chided the Assembly

decisions.

Allegations
After the motion to

censure was read by
Assemblyperson Leigh Lachman, stiff opposition
erupted from several Executive Committee members.
Adamant in her support of Mr. Saleh while
extremely critical of the caucus. Student Affairs
coordinator Judy Kravitz said: “I don’t think
anyone’s worked harder at this school than Dave
Saleh. He’s here from 8 a.m. to 1 1 p.m.”
“Why don’t you go to an Executive Committee
meeting before you criticize?” Ms. Kravitz told the
Assembly.
Responding to this remark, Assemblyperson Joe
Michaeli said Executive Committee meetings were
merely a formality and that questions of policy were
actually decided far in advance. “Regular” Assembly
members felt they would have no clout even if they

did attend the meetings, he indicated.
Contending the Executive Committee was
receptive to the Assembly, SA President Jon Dandes
berated caucus members for closing its own meetings
to “members of the Student Assembly because they
were supposedly connected with the Executive
Committee."

Once a week?
“There’S rto one on campus who works harded
for the general student body and who works harder
at what they do than the Executive Committee, and
Dave Saleh is among them,” Mr. Dandes said.
“Meanwhile, the Student Assembly comes in here
once a week? All that shows,” he continued, “is that
we have an Assembly that’s not interested in finding
out anything and one that’s not concerned with
students.”
Executive Committee member Frank Jackolone
took issue with both the Assembly and the
Executive Committee. While admitting it was
necessary for the Assembly to take a “new
direction,”
he criticized caucus members for

for its apparent apathy toward such a large chunk of
students’ mandatory fees. “Frankly, I’m a little
incredulous at what happened here,” Mr. linker said.
“You just passed a $217,000 budget without asking
me one question. Some people out to do a little
soul-searching in this place.” .
Mr. linker’s remarks spurred further discussions
on the Athletic budget. It was discovered that the
motion passed by the Assembly actually reflected a
budget “as approved by the Finance committee.”
Student Rights coordinator Cliff Palefsky
indicated the Finance Committee recommendation
had been amended by the Executive Committee to
eliminate the annual Athletic banquet and transfer
its $1400 allocation to another budget line. The
approved motion was amended to reflect this

transfer.
In other business, the Assembly voted to send
telegrams to several legislators, calling for the
impeachment of President Richard Nixon.

�Science museum intrigues
by Laurie Yankus
Spectrum Staff Writer
Regina sat on the seat of a bicycle pedaling with
boundless energy, yet not moving an inch. The
purpose of this activity was not to cover distance;
Regina’s mechanical motion was being turned into
electronic energy through a generator. Attached to
the bicycle were three lights and a tape player. A
sing above Regina’s head indicated if she pedaled
hard enough the lights would go on and the music
would begin to play. She pedaled with all her
strength and the lights began to glow and the music
played on. A grin of innocent pride brightened her
face. This activity is part of one of the many exhibits
at the Ontario Science Center where children are
allowed to explore concepts through their senses of
touch, smell and hearing.
Friendship House, a tutorial organization.within
Community Action Corps (CAC), sponsored a trip to
the museum for its children. The children involved in
the tutorial program come from a designated poverty
area of Lackawanna. CAC financed the excursion
because it offered beneficial and educational
experiences to the tutors as well as the children.
Mark Wywatta, project head of Friendship House
explained: ‘The kids love the museum. With so
many things to see, to try, and to leam about, they
cannot help but have an emjoyable and rewarding
&gt;..*
.
time.”,

Independent children
The children managed to explore the museum
on their own. To them, the. museum was an
enormous labyrinth with buttons to push, peepholes
to spy through and switches to manipulate.
Although all the exhibits were fascinating, the
children had special favorites. The Hall of Life was
appealing because of the live animals displayed.
Three generations of guinea pigs offered the child an
introduction into genetics. A fish exhibit illustrated
selective breeding. Another project showed the
dependence of all lifeforms on plant's for oxygen.
“Environment Earth” captured the interest of
most children because of its ecological values. There

were photographs of leaves damaged by air
pollution. A life-size model of a future city car was
also exhibited here. The car was built as a' possible
solution to the problem of road congestion in cities
and towns. It will carry four people and travel at 40

miles per hour.

Musk hath charms
The Science Aroade was perhaps the most
fascinating area for the children. Electronic organs
were placed in several booths for the public’s use. A
poster above each organ described the process of
electronic music. The Science Arcade also had a
section on the system of levers and pulleys. The
children would place themselves on a large lever and
it would record their weights.
One exhibit all the children explored was titled
“Light and Shadows.” In this exhibit one would
stand against a phosphorescent wall, a strobe light
would be triggered and the person’s shadow would
remain on the wall after he moved.
In the Hall of Communications children played
a challenging game of Tic Tac Toe with a computer.
As the museum guide said: ‘The exhibits in the Hall
of Communications make it clear that the computer
is nothing more than a tool of man.”
Elevator lovers
Throughout the day, children were absorbed in
pressing buttons and watching extraordinary things
happen. They were equally excited by the rides up

and down the elevators and escalators which moved
them throughout the museum.
One child was disappointed because the wax
monsters she was expecting to find in the museum
were “missing.” Another child felt the museum
would make a good gym because of all the space.
She was very contented to play hide-and-seek.
Debra Petrillo, volunteer for Friendship House,
summed up the importance of the trip; “It showed
children the practicality of science instead of the
abstractness they learn about in school. The Science
Center taught science in a-fun way.”

�Alternative view: humanism
The Humanist Manifesto II is a
controversial document offering
humanism as an alternative world
view to deal with such urgent
problems as the rise of totalitarian
regimes and “the continuance of
unyielding racism.” The drafts for
this work, which has received
widespread attention in both the
American and foreign press, were
written by Paul Kurtz, professor
of Philosophy at this University
and editor of the bi-monthly
magazine. The Humanist.
An attempt to update the

1933 and signed by philosopher
John Dewey, the Humanist

�Make your voice heard
On Wednesday we stated at length, as we often have
before, why we believe President Nixon must be impeached.

Now we must stress, over and over again if necessary, that
without widespread response from the public, impeachment
talk will fade from a cautious Congress.
Fortunately, a stong public demand for Mr. Nixon's
impeachment has assailed the Congress in the last few days in
the form of letters and telegrams. Several Congressmen,
including ones on the House Judiciary Committee which is
now broadening its inquiry into the grounds for impeaching
Mr. Nixon, reported that their offices have been deluged by
mail overwhelmingly in support of impeachment. This
University must add its support to that response.
Many groups, both local and national, are already
mobilizing for rallies and united action to support
impeachment, but the single best vehicle for influencing

remains
a massive
letter-writing campaign. Write letters, send telegrams, or mail
in the coupon from Wednesday's The Spectrum to your
Congressman or House Speaker Carl Albert. Anyone wishing
a copy can obtain one at 355 Norton Hall.
Mr. Nixon's veto yesterday of the Congressional war
powers bill is just one more example of his disregard for the
Constitution which invests the legislature with that
responsibility. Fortunately, few people were satisfied by Mr.
Nixon's forced surrender of the tapes, recognizing the
whitewash he accomplished when he fired Mr. Cox: the
investigated firing the investigator. It is also obvious that the
entire tapes "compromise" was a sham, a pretext to oust Mr.
Cox, after trying to impede his investigation in every way
possible, because Cox was too close to blowing the whistle
on other illegalities as well.
Inaction means you endorse this one-man rule. Send
those letters to Congress right now; Congressmen are
measuring the response; it will have an effect. Together we
can make our voices heard.

The surprise move on Tuesday by President
Nixon concerning the release of the presidential
tapes caught many observers unaware; however, a
careful study of the past year’s events would uncover
a pattern of obstruction and delay in which this
action by the President, although shocking due to its
rapidity, would find its own niche. The last 12
months have witnessed the gradual unfolding of a
all related in style and
conglomerate of scandals
seemingly leading to the Oval office of the White
House. To many analysts, it seems as if the White
House has attempted to obstruct or render
ineffective any investigation that might lead to the
arrest and conviction of criminals in high places.

Despite the frenzied objections of various radical groups
and so-called anti-racists, former Georgia governor Lester
Maddox will speak at this University this Thursday.
For the past few weeks, an intense letter-writing debate
over whether or not Mr. Maddox should be permitted to
speak here took place on the editorial pages of this
newspaper. The basic argument advanced by those fervently
opposed to the Maddox speaking engagement was, quite
simply: Maddox -is a racist, he should not be permitted to
pollute students' minds, we should not use Student
Association funds to pay this man, no free speech for racists.
We certainly attempt no defense of Mr. Maddox's
political prejudices. The man is a self-admitted racist; no one
is denying that fact. But to deny this man, whatever his
views, the same right to freely express those views that
everyone else enjoys is to apply the same fascist tactics of
which people are accusing him. Many students on this
campus have no idea who Lester Maddox is; even more are
probably totally unfamiliar with his views. The cause of
anti-racism would undoubtedly be far better served by
allowing Mr. Maddox to speak here and permitting the
students to see just where this man stands.
Outraged radicals are obviously blind to their own double
standard when they argue that Mr. Maddox's views are such
that he doesn't "deserve" the right to free speech. For all
their diatribes against fascism, they attempt to apply fascist
logic in suppressing the opinions of an extremist. This is as
bad in its own way as the Nixon administration's
ostensibly-aborted 1970 plan for bugging and burglarizing
domestic radicals.
Speaker's Bureau chairman Bob Burrick has attempted to
bring interesting, controversial figures to this campus. They
have ranged from liberal Supreme Court Justice William O.
Douglas to
Mr. Maddox. We find Mr. Maddox's views
abhorrent, and for that very reason insist that people should
be encouraged to hear what he has to say and make up their
own minds about him. The same logic that would allow the
misguided "anti-racists" to bar Mr. Maddox from speaking
could be applied in repressing students, burglarizing political
dissidents or censoring newspaper editorials. "I may not
agree with what you say, but I'll defend to the death your
right to say it," said Voltaire. Free speech is for everyone
extremists included.

Wednesday morning, October 24, about 11:40
or so somebody walked off with a tape recorder
from the Student Counseling Center. It was a JVC
Cassette AM/FM radio. I had had it for maybe two
weeks. It is hard for me to know quite what to do in
such a case. It is extremely difficult for me to spend
money on myself. I shopped around for a tape
recorder and in order to save a little money, waited a
really long time for it to be delivered. It doesn’t feel
as if it was a total extravagance. 1 needed to be able
to make tape recordings in the process of being a
psychologist and it seemed to be all right, in that
case, to buy a good one that I could also use for
music. So I .left myself vulnerable. I bought
something of value. And somebody ghosted through
and grabbed it. I don't have a hell of a lot of money,
and with caution. Living in a

world where relaxing your guard for ten minutes
costs you something you can ill afford fucks me up
badly. I’m sorry that everybody in the world can’t
have tape recorders such as the one that was stolen,
but I cut comers and did without other things to get
that one. I want it back. It’s worth about a hundred
dollars. Having worked in a prison I find them
almost totally ineffective and places of punishment
rather than rehabilitation. It is.an indicator to me of

how angry and scared I get . . I don’t need more

less, too. If anyone is interested, drop me a note care

Accept abortion
To the Editor:
“I may not believe in what you say, but I will
defend to the death, your right to say it.”
This statement should be applied to the current
controversy over abortion, in that women must be
allowed to express their beliefs on abortion. Pro pr
con must be allowed to exist. If the current bill
allowing abortion is repealed, the women who are
pro-abortion, who might desire an abortion, will be
forced to submit to the rape and torture of the
anti-abortionists. The existing law permits both
opinions to exist. If you don’t want an abortion,
don’t have one!
ABORTION; THE RIGHT TO LIFE. These are
two conflicting sentiments that viciously chase each
other in a never ending circle, which is drawing ever
increasing debates into it’s emotion charged vortex.
A statement that women’s rights must be protected
invokes an empassioned appeal for the rights of a
fetus. Conversely, an attempt to state that abortion
is a form of slaughter, is righteously denied. Where is
compromise?
it does exist
The Population Explosion
there are too many people. Projections that Buffalo
will lose 97,000 in population, by the year 2000,
have dismayed Mayor Makowski, as he feels that
“the projection could well discourage future business
but he has enough
developments in the city
confidence in the city’s future to believe that the
trend of dropping population can be, and will be,
reversed.” Supposedly we need more people to
increase business. This seems ludicrous in view of the
FACT that “six per cent of the world’s population
(the United States) is consuming fifty per cent of the
world’s dwindling resources.” Abortion, a form of
birth control, must be accepted in the United States.
We the American people, cannot be selfish. We must
reduce our population before the Technology we
have so proudly erected, for the benefit of mankind,
crumbles, as it’s basic raw materials, vanish.

who ever died to make this a free republic. They
might as well take sledgehammers and go through
the military cemeteries, knocking over gravestones.
In his sleazy way, that is what Richard Nixon is
doing right this minute.

that is a naive statement. But I believe it. I believe*
that when those men fought Hitler, they were
fighting the secret police. They were fighting for the
idea
America was a nation of laws, not men, a
nation with a Constitution, not a fuehrer. In his
recent actions as President, Nixon has been spitting
on the graves of all those men who will be
remembered across the country today.
Earlier this year, Nixon through Elliot
Richardson, assured the Senate Judiciary Committee
that Archibald Cox would be allowed to go wherever
Watergate took him. Of course, that was before the
existence of the tapes became known. In the middle
of Friday night, Nixon double-crossed the Senate.
Today it is clear that those tapes must prove Nixon
is a criminal or he would have obeyed the Appeals
Court order.
Instead he reverted to character. He announced
a unilateral “compromise,” a contradiction in terms.

Clearly, this man Nixon must be impeached. All
Congressmen and other politicians must make this
move now. Republicans must lead the way. Nelson
Rockefeller, Jacob Javits and James Buckly no
longer can afford silence or timidity. They claim that
Watergate was not a Republican conspiracy. Now
they can act on that belief. Today, with three
lawmen gone, it is more clear than ever that Nixon is
the gang-leader, and the White House crime wave is
his personal responsibility.
The Democrats must also act. Their first move
should be to meet in caucus tomorrow and have Carl
Albert step down as Speaker of the House. Albert is
a nice man, but he is not a President; he drinks too
much, and has minimal intellectual and political
stature. But the Democrats could make Wilbur Mills
the new Speaker. He is apparently honest. He is
conservative enough to obtain respect from
Republicans. He is not an ideologue or a foreign
adventurer. He understands economics and might be
able to rebuild the economy that has been destroyed
by Nixon and his power happy gang of nihilists. Mills
would make a good interim President; he could even
choose Cox, or a leading Republican as Vice
President.

It is Veterans Day, and after all those wars, we
find ourselves living in the latest reel of “Z.” Doesn’t
anyone remember why all that blood was spilled on
Omaha Beach? Or why all those young men left Red
Hook and Fordham Road and the Village, to die in
the sand at Tarawa? Why did those young men die at
Saipan or get machine-gunned in the Belgian forests
in 1944? Why did they die at Anzio? Why are the
hills dense with crosses in Arlington? Why the hell
did all those young men die?
I know this: they did not die so that a person
like Richard Nixon could defy the courts of this
democracy. They did not die so that the secret
police could come in the night and seal the files of
Archibald Cox. They did not die so that a Richard
Nixon could pollute the institution of the
Presidency, staff the White House with criminals,
obstruct justice, wage secret undeclared wars,
authorize extortion in the raising of campaign
money, stash secret funds in safe deposit boxes, and
transform his private property at San Clemente into
a tinhorn Versailles. They died for better things than
Richard Nixon has given us.

Karl U. Smith, professor of Psychology at the
University of Wisconsin, cited an experiment in
which arbitrary test scores were randomly assigned
to students in the beginning of a semester. Their

teachers were informed of each student’s score, the
scores being totally unrelated to the student’sability.
It was found
that students’ and teachers’
expectations for the student during the rest of the
semester, based on the arbitrary scores, interacted to
actually cause the student to do either well or
poorly, depending on whether the student received a
high or low artitrary score on the sham test.
In the same way, lower achievement by blacks is
produced by ingrained bias in the exams they take
and by lower expectations on the part of the
teachers, Dr. Smith explained.
When he controlled the psychological tests of
prisoners, Dr. Smith said, he found that he could
fudge the results to varying degrees and no one
would discover the data manipulation. That same
fudging could occur in any kind of psychological
testing, he maintained. ‘Testing is the center of
academic fascism, of academic racism in this
country,” Dr. Smith stated.
Science which fragments studies into abstract,
unrelated, unintegrated pieces must be replaced by a
science which fully integrates knowledge into a more

Today almost everybody is getting into photography
And it's not the snapshot variety. People are doing
sports stories, nature stories, portraits—you may
even have a friend who s doing photographs through
a microscope Or a telescope
You also know that everybody has his own idea
about which camera is best. That s why it's important
for you to know about the Canon F-1. Because it's the
system camera that s fast becoming the favorite of
professionals And the new status symbol among
photography enthusiasts.

The whole F-1 systerh includes over 40 lenses and
200 accessories. It’s capable of doing virtually
everything in photography So whatever idea you
have for a picture, the F-1 has the equipment to make
sure you get it.
Because it was conceived from the beginning as a
system, it works as a system. All the elements are
quickly and easily interchangeable No matter which
lens or accessory you use with the F-1 body you won't
have the feeling that something has been

“tacked on."

What's more the F-1 is comfortable to handle.
Years of research went into the design of the F-1 body
and placement of controls so your fingers fall
naturally into place. You 'll appreciate this comfort
when you’re on assignment It's also an important
thing to keep in mind if you re investing in a camera
you plan to keep a long time.
Canon has been in the optics industry over 37
years. We make microscope equipment, amateur and
professional movie cameras and TV lenses. It's this
experience that helps make our still cameras the best
selling cameras in Japan. In America, it's just a matter
of time.
See your dealer for more information. He'll also
show you Canons other SLR cameras, like the FTb
arid TLb. Both of which offer accurate metering, easy
film loading, a wide rapge of lenses and the same
standard of engineering that goes into the F-1.

Photography:
a persona/experience
to be shared

c

To enter a circle, to be part, to be one with the
whole; involvement, experience it and do it; these
words and concepts are becoming the catch phrases
for many of the visual arts. The experience will take
form and the involvement will differ with intensity
and velocity for each media.
Paul Weissman had a one-man show in the music
room at Norton Hall. The show included a series of
Paul's photographs dealing with an idea. I found the
image quality and direction in the work fulfilling. I
returned a few times to re-experience the prints and
to come to terms with what Paul asked us to do
upon viewing his work.
This brings about a point for thought. Next to
the first image Paul had this note: "These
photographs do not have titles, as I feel it is alien to
their purpose. Their end: to recreate the excitement
felt when my eye arrived at the place where the
photograph was taken. Their purpose is to be looked
at closely." When looking at images, the image is
what stimulates the thought. The thought becomes
the experience. The object was photographed and
printed when Paul's eye arrived at the place (I
wonder if he was there before his eye.).

Misguided friends?
The print becomes, for the maker, the total
experience. We as viewers can only relate to the
visual form forced upon us by the image maker.

Indians. Which was stupid. I knew nothing about
them and immediately realized that I was much too
white and too naive. I stopped any notions and
decided to let things happen."
Camera at personality
To let things happen. To experience the process
of change. Of course, being there with your camera
does affect the situation. At times, it acts as a
catalyst between you and what's out there. There is
a difference between knowing what you want to
record and letting the process of seeing happen. It is
only through time that one becomes aware of this.
When a viewer looks at a show, sometimes the
idea of how the maker may feel about it appears.
About her feelings, Jerry said: "I feel very close to
them, my work. When I was in the darkroom making
the prints I would become very excited, so that I
would jump up and down and even sing a little. To
see the image of a person coming out of the tray that
I've been close to would cause so much energy that I
would be very happy."
Looking at the photo of a very close person

time it happens, think about it. Try to understand its
relationship to the moment. And if you record it,
does that feeling follow through or is it lost on the
contact sheet? The more we talked about her
experience, the more excitable she became. Jerry
told me about the people, things she did with them,
and what they were like. The more we talked the
more I understood her work to be of her
experiences, the reliving of a time through a print.
"But, I wasn’t shooting all the time," Jerry
continued. "At times it was very cold, my film
would rip, shutter would freeze, I just had a lot of
mechanical problems. At times it wasn't the right
time to photograph. Let's say, respecting the
people." A photographer intrudes with a camera,

recording moments in the lives of an unsuspecting
people. What is his responsibility to them? Jerry said
it well; "Respecting them."
Returning with all that film and all those
images, what happens? "When I came back. I went
through a lot of head trips and still am. I'm not sure
I should show the work. They are very private
photographs to me, they are part of me. I've been
told they are more of me than of them. I feel they
are both. They are very special to me and I know
they are going to be interpreted in many different
ways. So, I've become protective of them. I don't
what them to be misinterpreted."
Anyone who has created anything puts himself
into it. It becomes you; you have exposed yourself.
To realize that about yourself, to live with it, do you
really want other people to see you?

From that form we create our own experience. For
I
experienced," is absurd. We experience only the
work. After seeing the series of photographs and
reading the comments left there in a
historical-monumental notebook, I realized that very
few of the friends of photography experienced
anything but the niceties of writing their comments
in a 3%x5 spiral recorder. Possibly that could be the
true experience of Paul's work.
If an image maker wants you to experience what
he recognized and thought about, then he must grab
you and pull you into that image, make you become
involved completely. Take a deep look at Adams'
and Weston's images and experience their feelings. If
you are visually receptive at all you will breathe
deeply and have nothing to say. It is hard to
verbalize about a visual experience.

Another artist
Still thinking about the maker-object-viewer
relationship, I recently talked to Jerry Zbiral about
her show opening in Montreal, Canada next week.
Jqrry is a graduate student in photographic studies at
the Visual Studies Workshop in Rochester, N.V. (this
university’s extension program). Most of our
discussion centered around her experience and not
her prints. To talk about her images would be a
waste; they are to be viewed and not verbalized.
The work has become the visual proof of her
experience. Whether or not it is the equivalent of the
experience is another matter. What does matter is
her intent. Her work deals with two separate visits
with the Chee Indians at Fort George in Northern
Canada. What Jerry relayed to me was her
experience with the people.
I approached her first to ask how she went up
there. Did she have a preconceived idea of what she
wanted to photograph? Jerry responded, "I went up
there with a preconceived idea of photographing the

Parting questions

What was her intent, her visual statement? She
made it very clear to me what it isn't. "It's not an
anthropological, photojournalistic, geographic
documentary. That stuff doesn't go beyond the
surface. For me this was an experience. That's what
I'm relating to you point-blank. The work represents
a really fine, warm experience with these people. It
does not show how they hunt, or play with their

kids. I am showing you my experience with them,
that's all."
Jerry felt that the difference between a
documentation and an experience was that she
didn't show a complete aspect of their lives. Her
"my interaction with the
experience is just that

these
the street, to film a love, to record a party
are all experiences. To record and show these images
could be one of the strongest statements you can
make, if those are the terms you present your work
—

—

It then comes down to "what is your work
about, what is your visual statement, and what are
the terms you are working on?" In the case of Jerry
and her work on the Chee Indians, they are her
experience of a place in time and space. If you have
the opportunity to see the show in Montreal, you
will see what Jerry saw and chose to show you. You
cannot experience what the image maker does; you
can only experience in your way and at your own
level of understanding.
Here are two photographers. One asked you to
experience the excitement of what his eye saw and
the other to look at her experience. Tjhey are very
much the same, yet at the same time, very different.

�'Hit'

Fast paced and believable
That long-used and most often-abused theme of
vengeance comes out once again in Paramount
Pictures' new release. Hit. Written by Alan R.
Trustman and David M. Wolf, the story line is a good
one. Billy Dee Williams stars as a man working for
the government (most like the FBI). His fifteen year
old daughter dies from an overdose of heroid and
Williams wants revenge.
He's intent on going right to the source; in this
case, the biggest drug dealers in Marseilles, France.
Of course, he can’t do it alone, so he scouts around
the country, gathering together six people who, like
Williams, would give anything to see the big dealers
put away.

Williams is the type of cop whose only concern
is to "get the job done," whatever the circumstances.
In this case the obstacles are his superiors, who insist
'that a venture like this would simply strain
U.S.—French relations too much. So Williams and his
cohorts become a vigilante group, taking the law into
their own hands, because the government won’t.

each one of them has a hazy background, but we
find out that they are people too; possessing all the

The film is extremely long (over two hours), but

Hit is for a particular audience: one that likes

Acting makes a hit
If nothing else, the acting is very adequate. Billy
Dee Williams once again proves himself to be an
excellent actor. He’s the leader in this wild goose
chase and his persistent qualities of determination,
sincerity, and manliness are never in doubt. Richard
Pryor, one of the gang, is definitely on his way to
becoming a superstar. At times he's very comical,
and just like that his face can change into a deadpan
image of morbidity.
Pryer deserves more speaking lines in this movie.
His talent is not wasted, but neither is it used to its
fullest potential. Paul Hamptpn, Gwen Welles,
Warren Kemmerling, Janet Brandt, and Sid Melton
round out the remainder of Williams' mob. None of
them are outstanding in their roles, but they are the
type of actors who are needed as support for the
film.
Unlike other police stories. Hit displays a fresh
cohesiveness, not only among the actors, but with
the camera work too. This is not very surprising, as
director Furie, producer Harry Korshak,
photographer Alonzo, editor Argyle Nelson and
actors Williams, Pryor, Melton, and Hampton all
worked together in Lady Sings the Blues.

i

Dean Stockwell does a much
better job as the werewolf than as
the press secretary. He looks as if
he's spent the last two years in
prison. His face is tired and drawn
and so is his acting. He couldn't
convince the Arabs that Israel was
their enemy.
Jack Whittier (Stockwell), as
the werewolf, terrorizes the
populace of Washington, D.C. The
actual filming of the werewolf's
murders was done well. Each one
is shown in slow motion with
some haunting special effects.
Especially effective is a scene in
which the werewolf attacks the
editor of a Washington magazine.
The audience is given a full view

The film is well put together. Director Sidney J.
Furie works well with this familiar theme, mainly
due to the fine camera work that's used.
Photographer John Alonza does a superb job with
moods and scenery. The film is much more
authentic-looking than most cop stories in which
there is so much perfection that credibility is often
questionable. Hit appears to be more like a film
newsclip than a staged setting.
Believability is doubtful during the planned
murders. All nine murders depend precisely on
perfect timing. Williams and his mob succeed, but it
appears so simple a job that one begins to wonder if
maybe a bunch of ten-year-olds wouldn't pull it off.
Even though this may be the weakest part of the
film in terms of credibility, the fine acting and
direction seem to make up for this one weak spot in
the story line.

reviews by those people who criticized my first
draft, hoping that if I copy their style, they'll like
what I write. But that won't work.
What I've got to do is drop out of this rat race.
Run away and escape. Take off with one suitcase
and overcome survival problems as they come. I'll

permission to take the rest of the day off; he never
comes back. Charlie joins the new subculture, the
spiffily-dressed, swinging crowd who rip off my dad
and yours.
He joins the group who have imitated the
beatniks of the '50's and the hippies of the '60's by
picking themselves up and throwing their
committments into the local litter basket.
The beatniks had beards and art. The hippies
had pot and music. This group has waterbed motels

tab at restaurants by fleeing through the kitchen
exit. They've also collected $1300 in cash from an
out-of-court settlement after they stopped short,
forcing a spanking-new, tailgating Lincoln to ram
their Mustang. All Charlie and Mike have to do to
collect is to wear some whiplash neck braces that
were prescribed by a doctor who sucks lollipops
during office examinations. Ever try going to a
massage parlor that accepts credit cards while you
have whiplash? They do.
There's one problem. Charlie has guilt feeling
about leaving Betty alone to look for furniture in
L.A. He constantly calls her but is always

Mike Robinson is one of the leading characters
in this movie I'm trying to review. QHe’s got a pensic
set up for life so he'll never have to worry where his
next buck is coming from. He's got no ties or
committments so he can always pick up and run
when things get too rough. Until then, he does
pretty well. He's got an apartment on the ocean (in
LA.), drives a T-bird, and throws wild parties.

Charlie thinks he's great and that he's mastered

him. He becomes short-fused and loses his cool. He
becomes a monster-like failure (like the one who
destroyed Dr. Frankenstein), and blows every
attempt at beating the system.
Mike can't stand him any longer and leaves him

�Money, money everywhere
apparen tJn art galleryauction
by Erich E. Rarrow
Spectrum Art Critic

For a moment I thought I was witnessing the
storming of a palace. Outside the crowd crunched
forward with the demonic ugliness of a snake. Inside
the pedicured repose of velvet and gilded arabesque
issued catarrhs of dust.
Defiantly exercised; everyone had the angry and
envious, "I am me" look.
What was to be a night of nights at the Sotheby
Parke Bernet galleries was just now a flash-back to
the Pop Art happenings of the early 60's and the late
50's. It was the scene-, it was a $2,242,000 art
auction of Pop Art.
The connection between art and reality has
always been an important consideration for
understanding and demythicizing the complex, yet
imperturbably mute existence of painting and
sculpture.

The reality of this sale was money, pure and
simple, money. What was to be a sale laden with
historical value judgements, jingoistic worries about
the flight of a national treasure, and interest
centering around the motives and erstwhile response
of the man who put the items up for sale; were
practically forgotten.
Who buys?
These questions were finessed with the turnover
of the art from Robert Scull, the energetic collector,
who was in on the market early. Other private
collectors arrived later. The new purchasers for the
most part were speculators; dealers who can swing
the cash and stay with the waiting period, or a
monied few who have figured out that pictures not
only have a high appreciation value but can be
looked at as well.
This is said because, on the entire list of
purchasers, there is a total of only one museum
which has successfully bid on a work, one painting
out of fifty paintings and sculptures that had been
offered for sale. And this painting, the very fine
White Fire II by Barnett Newman, purchased by the
Kunst Museum in Basel bears the blight which
speculators both fear and scorn; a small damage on
the margin between two stripes of paint.
However, this point may be overrated. Some
may think the feature of a Barnett Newman resides
in the iconic tension of color that exists from the
exact interaction of the margins.
Second-hand “Fire"
Well, Fire can be touched up without any loss to
it's visual properties, the matter is one of scholarship
not art. But to certain people it's like buying seconds
from a discount store.
Perhaps, museums relying on public funds
should hire people expert enough to buy, or more
properly recognize, art quality before it enters the

dog fight of the auction arena.
The fact is that museum people were there en
masse and those from Europe had come to spend
money. It was just too much money, sums which
would freeze their collection.
A museum buys for keeps and cannot look at its
purchases with the flexibility of private investors.
Museums buy with a sense of reason and not with an
anticipation of investment success based on changing
taste or economic fluctuations. They try to establish
a basis of quality that suits the needs of their
particular museum. That is, most of the works in the
auction were priced beyond any real concern for
their conceptual value as art.
The auction itself established a number or
record sale prices. Jasper Johns' Double White Map
wwas sold for $240,000 and his small sculpture of
bronze ballantine ale cans went for $90,000.
Fundamental idea
Johns' is the father of conceptual ist and post
conceptualist thought; a fact which cannot be
overstated. Additionally his basic concern for
establishing objective criteria art from within an
expressive source spawned the hard edge and optical
abstractions of Stella, Noland and Poons.
Marcel Duchamp with his dada impulse to place
readymades in a gallery context, his harrowing
substitution of mechanical parts for human sensory
organs and the general hysterical sterility of his
work, were all done as a view to consider the
perceptual reality of art.
Jasper Johns fashioned his targets, maps and
objectified objects by hand; he examined the
perceptual source of reality.
Both Johns and Duchamp raised the same
questions as to the nature of art but like the two
sides of a coin, their answers were mental
complements but opposite actualities.
In total Johns' work was sold for over half a
million dollars. The $240,000 paid for the double
white map was the highest price paid for a painting
by a living American artist.
It's interesting that the purchaser, Ben Heller
would choose such a work because he, as a private
collector, recently sold Blue Poles, a late work by
Jackson Pollock for two million dollars to a museum
in Australia.
Both Johns' and Pollock's works are considered
to be painting examples that came about years after
the artists' supposed great period had passed.

done white "ghost" versions of other things before
but Double White Map is of the greatest
monumentally.
All things being relative, the early Larry Poons
op painting Enforcer, burning glows of blue dots on
a red field, was a good buy for $25,000 and the
Rosenquist Early in the Morning ($45,000) was one
of the most poetical things he has ever done.

The most obvious result of the Auction was an
increase of Rauschenberg's, Newman's and Johns'
stock, white strangely suspending thought on the
excellent sculpture of John Chamberlain. The
sure-fire auction advice is to buy low and sell high.

�Doc Watson

The best of guitar picking
It really doesn’t matter what
your musical preferences are; Doc
Watson is going to impress you
with his musical ability, his
humanity, his professionalism,
and his down-home humor. It has
been my personal experience to
witness people, not previously
familiar with the man's music,
(and not liking 'folk' music) to
come but of a Watson
performance shaking their heads
and sparking off about how the
man impressed them. That's
mainly because Doc is the very,
very best of his breed. Watson is a
traditional singer functioning in
the modern music scene without
compromising his root; he learned
many of his songs from his father
and uncles.
Good ol' Arther 'Doc' Watson
and his son, Merle (named for
Merle Travis) will demonstrate
their musical talent in Clark Hall
this Sunday at 7:30 and 10:00
p.m. Watson excells at all kinds of
guitar playing, both flatt-picking
and finger-picking in the famed
Merle Travis style. Furthermore, it
isn't all just bluegrass or country
picking. Doc is well acquainted
with all styles of music. He
listened to all the Old Carter
Family records when they were
coming out on 78's following
right along with Maybell Carter.

He is also fond of Jimmy Rodgers'
songs: When it's peach pickin'
time in Georgia/lt's gat picking
time for me. On the old Gershwin
chestnut “Summertime" Doc
proves he could be a great jazz
guitarist. Time magazine recently
noted Watson is a "regular
country-music Segovia." Hell this
music ain't nothin, Doc would
say. No high-minded Segovia in it.
You see Doc was not much of
a "professional" musician when
he was found by the folklorist
(and ex-Greenbriar Boy) Ralph
Rinzler in the early 1960's. He
was just another old ol' boy doing
his picking. He was well known in

his community but he wasn't
traveling all over the world, Africa
and such, with people making
over him about his playing and
singing. In fact, when Rinzler
"found" him. Doc was giving up
the oldtime music for the music
of a country swing band (or
maybe we'd say rock-a-billy),
playing electric guitar. So when
Watson sings Paxton's "Last Thing
on My Mind,", no one should
scream "compromiser!" It's not a
valid criticism of Doc. He sings a
lot of old family songs, but he has

You know how it is when you find a group or an artist nobody
else knows about. You hear them somewhere at a friend's house, on
the radio, in a record store and it's some of the greatest music you've
ever heard. So you run out and buy the album and play it (to the
horror of your more rational friends) overandoverahdoverandover until
you know every riff of every instrument and all the words on every
song. After a month or two or three you can't help but get a little
bored of whoever it is, so you only play the disc once a day

once every two weeks three weeks... Then one day,

your friend from home who you haven't seen in six months comes up
to visit. You just happen to put on your old favorite. You start to talk
to him, but your foot keeps tapping to the music. He's telling you
about ehe Way It Is Back Home when all of a sudden he sits up, his
eyes clear from their dope-filled haze, and he says: "Hold it. Who is this
guy?Tve never heard him before. He's great!"
You can't beleive it. You can't accept the fact that after all you've

knew you so well has no idea about this small part of your life.

A Song for Juli Jesse Colin Young

(Warner Bros.)

Although it's very well produced and arranged and has excellent
musicians on it, Jesse Colin Young's new album, A Song for Juli is
singularly unimpressive. In fact, it's a disappointment. When he was
with the Youngbloods, Young's music had something special. He had a
very wide spectrum, ranging all the way from the sweet and mellow to
the get up-and-dance music. On A Song for Juli his music still
encompasses a broad range, extending from fair to saccharin, with a
few shades in between.
Young s arrangements are well done, and his production work is
quite good. This is Young's second solo effort, and was recorded at his
own Owl Mountain Studios. Even though there are fourteen musicians
on the album. Young remains in full charge. He's got his own sound
which comes through clearly. He's in full control, which may be the
reason this is such a personal album. He's trying to offer a glimpse of
the way that he lives, and this constitutes the main bulk of the lyrics. If
you re interested in how Jesse Colin Young feels when he's on tour, or
how Jesse Colin Young feels about the music industry, then you'll find
this to be a very interesting recording. But I wasn't interested in this,
and Young failed to make me feel interested. If he made me feel
anything, it was disgust tinged with boredom.
This failure is very evident in "Ridgetop." The message that the
song is trying to get across is just how mellow Young is getting. It tells
all about how much he likes his ridgetop retreat, in good country with
a dean sky. Neat. The third verse is pretty indicative of the rest of the
song, and also the rest of the album:
"Now when built my house
/ cut six
trees to dear the land
But there's thirty or more left
/

And you know they're gonna stand

It's a squirrel sanctuary
And they think this woods is their home
And as long as I'm here
I'll make sure people leave us alone."
The song preceding this on the album is the title track, "Song For
Juli." This opens with an instrumental, which is quite good. But then
when Young starts to sing, the effect is ruined. I haven't come across

Well, my friends, I find myself in a similar predicament. I know
it's probably true, but it is incredibly hard for me to believe that the
majority of UB students who are into music have never heard of Doc
Watson. Must I explain who he is? Well, in short: Doc Watson is
possibly the best blue-grass geetar picker alive. What qualifies him for
that: Oh, just that he has the fastest, the cleanest and the tastiest style
in the field. I suppose I also ought to mention that he has accomplished
.
'
all this despite being blind.
Here we have The Essential Doc Watson. It's part of a series of
Vanguard "twofers" (twofer the price of one). The idea of a twofer
album always makes me a bit leery. It implies that the album's not
good enough to be sold for a double-record price. However, this is not
the case with The Essential Doc Watson.
Actually, the album is just what it claims to be
the essence of
Doc's music. It contains some of his best stuff: the fast-pickin'
instrumentals ("Black Mountain Rag,'' "Beaumont Rag," "Blueridge
Mountain Blues"), the old-time country traditional ("Little Omie
Wise," "Froggie Went a-Courtin," "Groundhop"), and the slow country
blues ("St. James Hospital," "Blue Railroad Train," "Country Blues").
It shows all his various talents story teller, expert banjo picker, harp
player, and of course, master of the acoustic country guitar. My
favorite on the album and in general is "Alberta," a beautiful mellow
song, to which his tasty little side riffs add a touch of immeasurable
class.
However, for a "best hits" album, there is a slight flaw. All the
cuts were recorded live at the Newport Folk Festival, 1963 and 1964.
The Doc didn't really get a start until the folk revival of the early
sixties, so this is all relatively "early stuff.'-' Some of his best songs are
sorely missed; notably, "Tennessee Stud," "Sweet Georgia Brown"
I
could make a very long list if I kept it up. Also, the quality of the
recording could be better.
Of course, the best (and maybe the only right) way to enjoy Doc
Watson is to see him live (which is possible this Sunday night and
should not be passed up). I mean, just watching that guy's fingers move
is a trip and a half! This makes the idea of buying his records rather
futile, but after all, something is better than nothing.
If you're a Doc Watson freak already, don't bother with this one.
You probably have most of the songs on other albums he's put out. But
if you don't have any of his records, or you've never heard him play

lyrics as trite as this since I stopped reading Rod McKuen.
"Miss Hesitation" is a conglomerate of tiis own song and Hesitation
Blues. It almost makes it, but doesn't quite come off. I think that the
strings spoil it.
He does another medley on the album. It's a combination of a
Lafayette Waltz and Jambalaya. The Lafayette Waltz half of the song is
boring at best. It sounds almost like easy listening music. Jambalaya is

nice, but he's no Hank Williams.
My favorite song on the album is a-T-Bone Walker song, called
"T-Bone Shuffle." There's nothing really spectacular about it, but it's
reminescent of the Youngbloods more than any other song on the
album. Maybe it's Earthquake's harmonica work, which I'm partial to.
All told, Young has potential, which can bee seen in his production
and arrangement work. I know that he can come out with a better
album than this. I just hope that he does.

�Anti-,

Skiiers assay effectiveness
by Joyce Blindenhofer
Spectrum Staff Writer

A study to determine the
of Anti-friction

Devices (AFD) on ski safety is
by
conducted
being
Schussmeisters Ski Club, Inc.
Directed by Jasper Shealy of the
of
Department
Industrial
Engineering at Rochester Institute
of Technology, and a former
graduate student at the State
University of Buffalo, the study is
being sponsored by various ski
equipment manufacturers and the
Safety
Product
Consumer

Commission.

Executive directors of the Ski
Salvatore Napoli, Ellen
Maurer and Mike Caputi are
participating in the study, and
approximately 1S00 Ski Club
members will be randomly picked
to try AFD’s.
To curb the risk of skiing
broken

casualties,
particular, ski experts have
developed devices designed to
prevent (and hopefully eliminate)
these skiing accidents. A common

explained
emphasized the importance of an
immediate release in case of fall to
prevent a leg fracture.

Tibias saved
This problem has motivated

of
the
the
development
Anti-friction Device. The prupose
of the AFD is to “limit the
buildup of friction between the
top of the ski and the boot sole,”
said Mr. Napoli. With friction
eliminated, or at best reduced, the
anti-friction device “enables you
to get a release instead of a
broken tibia,” he explained.
the AFD is located on the ski
under the ball of the foot or ski
boot. There are many kinds of
AFD’s which work on various
principles. For example, the Ski
Safe pad is a Teflon pad set into a
polyurethane casing, while the
Cubco Skidder is an AFD which
needs lubrication and has a

stainless steel top.
‘To date, no study has been
conducted to determine the
value of AFD’s,
long-term
although they are presently
available to the skier,” Mr. Napoli
noted. He feels that the upcoming
season should provide sufficient
time in which to assess the AFD’s
value. ‘They definitely reduce
friction between the boot and
ski,” he said, asserting his
enthusiasm for the devices.
Problems studied
The study will concentrate on
problems associated with the
AFD’s, such as proper installation
and maintenance. Dr. Shealy’s

source. The masters’ thesis won
the 1973 U.S. Ski Association
award for best ski injury-related
research of the year.
In Ski Club’s contribution to
the experiment, the “Binding
Workshop,”
participating
members will be asked to report
on their experiences with regard
to binding or anti-friction device
problems at the season’s end. To
encourage participation in the
final reporting phase, a drawing
will be held from those who
.respond. First prize will be a pair
of top-line skis or boots; second
through fifth prizes will offer a

choice of new bindings. There will
also be about 30 other prizes of
ski-related equipment.
For those wishing additional
information about skiing safety,
Gordon Lippe, technical editor of
Skiing Magazine will be speaking
Nov. 7 at 7:30 p.m. in the
Fillmore Room. Mr. Lippe is the
author of the series “Know Your
Bindings,” developer of the
“Lippe Slider” and co-developer
of “Burt Bindings.” Anyone with
questions should call 831-2145 or

Soccer Bulls shutout
Cardinals on Monday
Led by the shutout goaltending
of Frank Daddario, the soccer
a
three-game
Bulls snapped
winless streak Monday with a 3-0
win over St. John Fisher College
of Rochester. The win brought
Buffalo’s record to 3-4-2 and
dropped the Cardinals to 3-5-3.
The
Bulls
were
missing
sophomore Jim Baker, injured in
the Potsdam game Saturday. In
addition, several other players,
including high-scoring forward
Jude Ndenge, were absent due to
the team’s new “no-show” policy.
The new edict states that if a
player doesn’t come to practice,
he doesn’t play. With fewer
players and more spirit, Buffalo
dominated first-half play, finally
breaking the scoreless deadlock on
a goal by freshman Mike Pietrasik
midway through the half. Jim
Young, incensed over losing an
assist when Pietrasik’s shot went
in off one of the Cardinal
fullbacks, came back 90 seconds
later to tally his fifth goal of the
season. The goal was the third in
three games for Young, a school

record.

Daddario gave the Bulls and
head coach Sal Esposito a scare
late in the first half as he let a

weak shot trickle through his

shutout of the season (also a

school record), Daddario was
called upon to make only ten
saves, as the Cardinals were
outshot 38-24. Buffalo played a
shaky second half, unable to score
again until Tom Ardary fired in a
penalty kick with three minutes
remaining to give the Bulls their
final 3-0 margin.
Though Buffalo had trouble
scoring in the second half, they
had little trouble having players

Defenseman Paul Marcolini was
thrown out for the second time
this season midway through the
second half, and halfback Chuck
Santa-Maria followed five minutes
later for “verbal abuse of the
referee.” It was also the second
ejection of the
season for
Santa-Maria.
The Bulls play host to Geneseo

their record at .500 (4-4-2) and
capture the second seed in next

The decision had the effect of staving off a
flood of impeachment resolutions which hit the
House floor as soon as Speaker Carl Albert’s gavel
called the House into session at 2 p.m. yesterday.
But in a dramatic reversal late yesterday,
President Nixon agreed to surrender the Watergate
tapes for judicial review by Judge John Sirica, as he
had been ordered by the Court of Appeals. Mr.
Nixon’s lawyer, Charles Wright, told Judge Sirica the
President had hoped his compromise offer on the
tapes would satisfy the court order and avert a
constitutional crisis, ‘‘but events over the weekend
made it very apparent that it would not.’’ Mr. Sirica
said he was “very happy” that Mr. Nixon would
dy with his original August 29 order to release
tapes to him, which Mr. Wright said would be
in “a matter of a few days.”

Lawlessness is worse
Although actual impeachment proceedings must
await the committee’s inquiry as to whether
such a step is warranted, a number of Congressmen,
mostly Democrats, demanded that impeachment
proceedings against Mr. Nixon begin immediately.
Calling for impeachment, Senator Edmund Muskie
(D., Me.) said yesterday that only one adequate
forum remained, and that was the impeachment
process. He added: “The prospect of impeachment is

A consensus seemed to be developing that as a

Unacceptable proposal
Mr. Cqx said Saturday he
thought the WhiW House had

deliberately submitted a proposal

on the tapes controversy that

was

known to be unacceptable to him.
White House statements sought to
picture Mr. Nixon as having
yielded considerable ground in his
compromise offer, which must be
approved by Federal District
Judge John Sirica. The White
House is contending that a written
summary of the tapes, to be
verified by Senator John Stennis

“satisfies”
the
(D.,
week-old Appeals Court order
that Mr. Nixon release the tapes

themselves to Judge Sirica. Many
legal experts had concluded that
Mr. Nixon’s decision not to obey
the Appeals Court order, and not
to appeal to the Supreme Court,
was in defiance of the court order.

Cox reached the same
conclusion; and for refusing to
obey the President’s directive that
he, as a member of the executive
branch, cease court action and
future legal moves to obtain White

by organ and guitar music with a

All Americans should have complete access to

There diould be flexibility in enrollment

families bear a greater portion of the cost of their

Diverse programs must be adopted that widen
opportunities for higher education for adults, high

Financial subsidies ought to go directly to

“Affirmative action” hiring practices,

The Commission favored internal action by the

proposed changes. It argued for selection of
“activist” college presidents, and also advocated
increased input from students, trustees, and faculty.

Change, a magazine dealing with higher learning,

negative views of the Carnegie reports. They will
criticize the Commission’s report as too narrowly
pragmatic, and will say the panel did not advise
colleges and universities on what role they could
play in repairing the damage already inflicted on the
country’s social and political structure.
Senior editor of Change Sinlea Morris described

the other as “intermittently an attack.”
of the Commission’s members, who wished
to remain anonymous, said: “I am afraid we copped
out on the really tough questions of what people
should learn and how. Instead we asked who should
learn and where. Also we were long on prescriptions
but short on analyzing the financial, organizational
and administrative consequences of our
recommendations."
President of the Carnegie Corporation Alan Pifer
replied to such criticisms that they had not grappled
with the issue of content. The Commission, he said,
“simply decided it was not going to tackle that
question.” He said the main purpose of the report
was to provoke thought and discussion.
Because of the extreme wide range of the
reports, commented State University of Buffalo
Executive vice president Albert Somit, it would be
impossible to predict how any one of the
recommendations will be used. He noted that some
of the recommendations would naturally be more
acceptable than others, but as a whole, the report
will serve the purpose of instigating discussion and
exchange of ideas about higher education. It remains
to be seen whether that discussion will be translated
into concrete change.

explained.

However, through the 19th
century, court records show that
cases of morality were not of
much concern to the courts or
public. This was due not to a
behavioral change in the public,
but to a change in priorities of the
courts, Mr. Friedman stressed. At
this time the country was
concerned with economic growth
and the protection of property;
hence, economic issues were
prevalent in the courts.

in gaining

access to the courts. The courts
were becoming more and more
crowded and less and less willing
to hear all the cases brought
before it. Cases which concerned
negligible amounts of money were
either dismissed or delayed.
Delaying of litigation was
important since it discouraged
court cases.
“Law in the 19th century had
become “impersonal, remote,
clinical and forbidding," said Mr.

Friedman. This created what he
termed a “zone of immunity,”
meaning that the individual was
immune from minor infractions of
the law. Discouragement in
seeking court action was believed
to be in the best interests of
society, because litigation was said
to have bad side effects. However,
it was soon apparent that this
policy often denied justice to the
poor and powerless.
In discussing the 20th century,
Mr. Friedman stressed the
importance of immigration. Many

people feared immigrants as a
threat to their jobs and customs.
This fear provided the impetus for
many reactionary laws. The
present century brought a retreat
to the moral control of the 18th
century, he explained. Laws were
passed forbidding cigarette
smoking, horse race betting,
profanity and indecent gestures.
As the century progressed,
interest groups and lobbyists
became important factors in
law-making. For this reason, we
see today an open conflict and
straggle between the deviants and
oppressed who are opposed by the

dominant and rich, he explained.
While not sure what will become
of this conflict, Mr. Friedman
stressed the importance of
keeping tabs on the history of
justice in America.

B ehaviorpatterns of elderly
examined at Washington U.

Older people like to think they can “beat the
odds"- by outliving and outperforming the expected
average of behavioral decline, claims Jack Botwinick,
professor of Psychology and director of the Aging
and Development Program at Washington University
in St. Louis.
Speaking in Cheektowaga Monday
at a
symposium on adult learning psychology. Dr.
Botwinick agreed that the elderly “arrange and
should arrange their lives in accord with this
(philosophy),” as long as they did not totally ignore
the odds.

with his friends might not think his failing vision is
as terrible a loss as the person who likes to spend his
time reading, he said.
The elderly are constantly reminded of their
losses and inadequacies because they are continually
experiencing new ones, Dr. Botwinick asserted.
Gradual loss of hearing, the other senses, and the
ability to discriminate between colors constitute a
heavy burden for old people to bear, he insisted.
New evidence

Although “slowness in the elderly” was once
attributed only to muscle deterioration and
breakdown of the peripheral nervous system, Dr.
Botwinick said there is now substantial evidence that
the central nervous system also plays a major role.
“Because most reflex time is taken up by the central
nervous system
it may be possible to manipulate
conditions experimentally to speed up responses of
older people,” he indicated.
Those with a high degree of “function” in some
areas maintain and often surpass that function in
later life, said Dr. Botwinick. On the other hand,
there is often a decline in manipulative skills,
perceptual functions, the ability to integrate new
information, and those activities that never reached
too high a proficiency.
When stimuli are weak and ambiguous, Dr.
Botwinick maintained, older people fail to respond
because they do not want to appear uncertain. “The
cautiousness they exhibit might be more in the
nature of avoiding problems than in dealing with
them timidly,” he suggested.
...

Sex for octagenerians
“Sexual activity in the elderly is often thought
as being non-existent, but this is untrue,” continued
Dr. Botwinick. It is biologically possible to maintain'
sexual potency until very late in life, but the
frequency of widowhood has placed severe
-limitations on such sexual activity.” Widowed
women stop having sex nearly a decade earlier than
men, Dr. Botwinick emphasized, because older men
find it easier to remarry if their spouses die.
Depression rates among older persons are higher
*

overall

Although a person’s behavioral competence
sharply declines with age, “we are not totally
without some ability to help,” Dr. Botwinick said.
“Great hope for the future lies in research,” he told
doctors and
the audience of prominent

academicians.
Losses
losses
Dr. Botwinick cited two difficulties that often
arise in later 'life: decreased physical ability and a
changing environment. In addition to a loss of
sensory function, psychomotor speed (reflexes),
memory and other abilities, old persons are
confronted with the “loss of income and jobs” and
the loss of a husband or wife or friends through
death.
"How each loss affects an individual depends
upon how important and relevant the loss is,” Dr.
Botwinick surmised. A man who often sits and chats

those for younger

Botwinick said, because older individuals often feel a
“sense of hopelessness” because they occupy the
lowest possible position in society. They know they
have nothing left for them, Dr. Botwinick stressed.
Although a combination of poor health and
depression seems to underlie the correlation between
increased age and suicide rates in white males, the
same could not be said for females and non-white
males, he.explained.
Dr. Botwinick concluded with his hope that
more research would be conducted on the elderly
and their behavior patterns. These studies, he said,
would hopefully allow the aged to play “an

�All-out war shatters
Mtde asteease -fire
Blaming each' other for'flagrant violations of the shaky United
Nations c6asc-fire, Israel and Egypt resumed full-scale fighting
yesterday along the Suez Canal. The two nations had agreed to a U.N.
“in-place” cease-fire resolution, a joint United States-Soviet Union
proposal, and the fighting was scheduled to cease as of 12:30 p.m. EDT
Monday. But if there ever was a cease-fire at all, it lasted barely 12
hours.
Syria, which never agreed to the cease-fire, accused Israel of
launching air and artillery attacks on the northern front. Both Israel
and Egypt reported full-scale combat along the 102-mile Suez Canal
less than 16 hours after the shaky cease-fire was to have taken effect.
Meanwhile, U.N. diplomats were reported working on plans to police
the now-deteriorated Middle East cease-fire. Because available United
Nations forces are too small for the job, it has been suggested that the
United States and Soviet Union send units to the Middle East as truce
?

policemen.

China veto foreseen
China, however, is likely to veto any such use of those troops,
since she has taken the attitude that the two superpowers are seeking to
perpetuate a “no peace-no war” situation in the Middle East. Israel
predicted that the now-violated cease-fire will actually take effect in a
few days after all. According to the UiN. agreement, both sides were to
occupy the land they now hold pending a peace conference to be
arranged under the “appropriate auspices.”
The Israeli command said its tanks and warplanes went on the
attack yesterday “following the consistent violation of the cease-fire by
Egyptian forces during the [Monday] night and this [yesterday]
morning.”

“Our planes are attacking Egyptian troop concentrations on both
sides of the canal and Israeli armor forces are attacking the Egyptian
dispositions west of the canal,” a spokesman said.
The Egyptian military command said the all-out fighting began
when “enemy tanks and forces opened fire in several sectors of the
front in violation of the cease-fire resolution.”
The Cairo command said “our forces returned the fire” and battles
were raging at midmorning along the waterway.
Another violation
“Enemy planes bombed our positions west of the canal and this is
regarded as another violation of the cease-fire,” Egypt said.
Israel reported “numerous clashes” with Egyptian forces along the
cartal since the truce went into effect Monday evening on the 17th day
of the fourth Middle East war in 25 years.
A military spokesman in Damascus said an estimated 60 Israeli
warplanes bombarded civilian targets north of the Syrian capital
yesterday and clashed with Arab jets in numerous dogfights. He
reported 11 Israeli aircraft shot down in the clashes.
The proposal came about through the efforts of Secretary of State
Henry Kissinger and Soviet Leader Leonid Brezhnev. The two men met
in Moscow over the weekend and hammered out the details of the
agreement presented to the United Nations Security Council on
Sunday. The Council which was called into an emergency session
passed the resolution by a vote of 14-0.
Peace conference talks, scheduled to begin almost immediately,
will be extremely important to the preservation of the truce. U.N.
General Secretary Kurt Waldheim is reportedly willing to serve as a
mediator in the talks, which will include all of the middle east warring
parties.
The People’s Republic of China abstained from the voting
claiming that the U.S. and U.S.S.R. were trying to push through a
proposal that would result in a state of “no war no peace.*’
-

Immediate acceptance

acceptance of the UN. resolution came almost
immediately. Their acceptance was conditional upon a reciprocal Arab
agreement, an exchange of prisoners, and a solution that would leave
them with defensible boundaries.
Egyptian President Anwar el-Sadat announced his acceptance of
the resolution in a Monday morning radio broadcast over Cairo radio.
In a brief statement, he ordered his troops to abide by the cease-fire
deadline, and instructed his commanders to end the hostilities provided
the Israelis took similar action. •■j,r c
Mr. Sadat accepted the cease-fire plan after he had consulted with
fellow Arab leaders and received assurances from Moscow through the
Russian ambassador in Cairo.
The cease-fire resolution relied heavily on the U.N. Security
Council resolution of November 22, 1967. This 1967 measure called
for the withdrawal of Israeli forces from “territories” occupied in the
Six-Day War. The question has been moot for six years whether the
Israeli

;

resolution meant complete withdrawal from all occupied Arab
territories or a partial withdrawal. This ambiguity is also present in the
newly agreed upon resolution.
Strengthen holds
Israeli footholds on the west bank of the Suez Canal were enlarged
over the weekend. Heavy reinforcements were sent across the Canal to
bolster the troops that had been fighting deep within Egyptian territory
since the middle of last week. The Israelis were able to put most of the
anti-aircraft missile bases along the Suez out of operation and drive to
within 20 miles of Cairo. Despite heavy casualties, the Israelis had
succeeded in reasserting their control of the skies over the Sinai and all
but eliminated the threat of a last minute Arab thrust.
The Egyptian defense of their capital had stiffened and it
appeared that the Israeli drive would have been halted short of Cairo.
The Egyptian army absorbed high losses both in men and materiel, but
their determination remained strong.
Fighting in the Golan Heights continued in full force as the
Monday deadline approached. The Syrian government withheld
comment on the cease-fire, but it expected that they would comply
with the agreement. Israel recaptured Mt. Hermon from the Syrians and
solidified its position on the Heights over the weekend.

Q: Where can I cash a personal check 7
A: Students may cash checks on the Mezzanine of the Bookstore
between 8:45 a.m. and 4:30 p.m.. Monday through Friday, Saturday
from 11:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., and Monday and Thursday evenings
from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. Personal checks may be cashed only if the
student has a current 1973-1974 ID card and his name is imprinted on
the check. The amount is limited to $25 per student, per day, and a
S.l 5 fee is charged on each check. Money orders up to $50 may also be
cashed.

Q: What is the difference between a double major and a joint
major?
A: A joint major involves combining the subjects of two
departments as an area of concentration, i.e., psychology and
sociology. A double major is when the student completes all the
requirements within two departments. Joint and double majors must be
between departments leading to the same degree, i.e., a student may
not have a joint major between engineering (BS) and sociology (BA).
Appropriate faculty within each department concerned will assist in
planning a joint or double major. If you are interested in a double or
joint major, see your academic advisor in Diefendorf.

Concluding the piece was an airy, gracious rondo which spiritually
connected this work to the Haydn Quartet. The abundant use of fugal
and imitative passages also joined the Hindemith Quartet with the final
work on the program, Mendelssohn’s Quartet No. 2, op. 13. The
program was an organic unit.
Characterizing the Mendelssohn quartet, aside from the pervasive
fugal writing, was its intense Romanticism. Passionate weeping,
suspenseful nervousness and desperate galloping are all elements of this
work. Mendelssohn composed this piece entirely in the minor mode
except for one section in each of the third and fourth movements. This,
coupled with the quartet's Romantic tone was reminiscent of the
amplified lamentations delivered by various lovestruck characters in
Shakespeare’s early comedies.
Several curtain calls were asked of the Vermeer Quartet and their
eloquent performance certainly warranted it. This young quartet is well
on its way to a position of high regard in the musical world.
The next concert in the Buffalo Chamber Music Society series is
on Tuesday, November 27th. Featured are Alexander Schneider, Ruth
Laredo, Walter Tram pier, and Leslie Parnas performing the Brahms
Piano Quartets. Student tickets cost SI.SO and are available at the

�The case for impeachment

White House tapes.

Mr. Nixon's belated agreement to surrender the tapes was exactly
like every other concession he has made he was forced to do if. His
"compromise,", by which he himself would have provided an edited
summary of the tapes, perhaps editing out infromation on the Eilsberg
burglary and political wiretaps as injurious to "national security"
a
proposal he knew would be unacceptable to Mr. Cox was laughable.
Senator Stennis, the man who publically urged Mr. Nixon to "tough it
out" during Watergate this spring, could hardly have been accepted as
an impartial arbiter. And perhaps most importantly, there are several
important criminal procesutions pending
many against Mr. Nixon's
former associates
and any "edited summary" of the tapes would
obviously have been inadmissable evidence. And many defendants
requesting other White House tapes as evidence may go scot free as Mr.
Nixon abuses his Presidential prerogatives to shield this vital evidence
from the courts. This is clearly obstruction of justice.
Not only did Mr. Nixon repeatedly withhold the nine controversial
tapes until yesterday, but frustrated Mr. Cox's every attempt to obtain
other papers and documents of his aides by placing them in
"Presidential files," thus concealing the evidence under a blanket of
executive privilege r precisely what he promised the public he would
not do. His use of the FBI as a totalitarian secret police, which
descended on Mr. Cox's office and prevented him and his staff access to
their files and personal papers, is not at all uncharacteristic. Indeed, Mr.
Nixon's entire concept of the Presidency is one of a monarchial ruler
exercising his own prerogatives, unrestrained by the law which governs
ordinary citizens. The deal he engineered in which Spiro Agnew traded
his office for his freedom was the most recent example of the Nixonian
concept of privileged justice. Even a superficial examination of the
illegalities this man has committed in office should shock the most
stalwart conservative or disbelieving skeptic.
—Attempting to defy two court orders was not Mr. Nixon's first
attempt at obstruction of justice. When he learned of the break-in at
Daniel Ellsberg's psychiatrist's office, he sat on that evidence for 39
days. And while the Pentagon Papers trial was going on
a trial in
which the government had an obvious political interest he asked the
sitting trial judge, W. Matthew Byrne, if he would like the FBI
directorship after the trial was over. This was a sickeningly obvious
attempt to influence the trial
Judge Byrne threw the case out due to
government misconduct, and he didn't get the job. In a slew of other
purely political trials
the Berrigans, the Panthers, Angela Davis,
Gainesville 8
the government has either lost its transparent case or
had the case thrown out of court.
—Not only did Mr. Nixon involve the CIA, FBI andSecret Service
in illegal activities, he set up his own secret spy force the "plumbers"

the 1970 "domestic security" plan, which approved buglaries, bugging
and surveillance of domestic radicals, was actually put into effect in
1970. No memo rescinding that illegal plan has ever been produced.
-Illegal wiretaps, too, have been the hallmark of the Nixon
Administration, and recent evidence indicates that wiretaps remained
on two members of the National Security Council months after they
had left the government and joined Edmund Muskie's campaign. Other
taps on newsmen and persons with no responsibility in foreign affairs
clearly demonstrates the political ends to which wiretapping was
applied.

-The systematic subversion of the 1972 election, during which the
President's re-election committee bugged the Watergate, bugged Larry
O'Brian, attempted to but McGovern offices, had the Secret Service spy
on McGovern, had paid informants spy on Muskie, forged embarassing
letters on Muskie stationary, forged telegrams of support after the
Haiphong bombing, and perpetrated a host of other unethical and
illegal activities, leads to the conclusion that Mr. Nixon's campaign
illegally influenced a Presidential election. To argue that Mr. Nixon did
not know what his subordinates were doing in his name is a politically
naive view

—The illegal bombing of Cambodia, during which Mr. Nixon loosed
almost 4,000 B-52 bombing raids on a neutral country, makes the
Watergate accusations pale by comparison. In the process of secretly
annihilating hundreds of Cambodians, Mr. Nixon repeatedly lied to the
American public on national TV, lied to Congress, and approved the
falsification of reports that the bombing had actually taken place in
Vietnam.
-Mr. Nixon's re-election campaign was illegally financed', many
contributions were simply not reported; many were illegally extracted
from large corporations in a manner not unlike the Agnew method. Mr.
Nixon paid an extraordinarily low income tax in 1970-71, never
denied; and each new look

Perhaps the magnitude of what Richard Nixon has done can be
measured by-those moderates and conservatives who have supported
the President through these many months of scandal and disclosures,
but who have now felt compelled to call for his impeachment.
Time and again, Mr. Nixon has sought to place himself above the
law, beyond the reach of Congress, the courts, the press, and the
public. Throughout the many months of Watergate, Democrats in
Congress have only whispered about impeachment, for fear of being
accused of manipulating Watergate as a partisan issue; but Mr. Nixon's
actions have virtually forced them to confront the issue. And during
the peak of Watergate testimony this summer, while three-quarters of
the public believed Mr. Nixon guilty of criminal offenses, only
one-quarter advocated impeachment. Perhaps they were justified, as
impeachment is a long, divisive, bitter process. But the public, too, is
being forced to the painful conclusion that there is a moral defective in
the Oval Office.
To quell the raging charges of "cover-up" last spring, Mr. Nixon
nominated an impeccable Attorney General in Elliot Richardson, and
assured the Senate and the American people, through Mr. Richardson's
promises, that an independent special prosecutor would be appointed,
with complete freedom to investigate Administration misconduct in
Watergate and to oppose claims of executive privilege. The Senate
would not have confirmed Mr. Richardson without these promises of
independence, for no prosecutor could fairly investigate the
Administration of a President to whom he is subservient. And yet, Mr.
Nixon did not hestitate to directly order Archibald Cox to cease his
efforts to obtain the tapes and other documents; and when Cox
refused, he fired him.
The subsequent resignation of Mr. Richardson in protest, and the
ouster of assistant Attorney General William Ruckleshaus, provided one
painful conclusion: independent-minded men cannot survive in the
Administration of a President who uses his office to purge
independence from the executive branch and supercede court orders.
Mr. Nixon's shocking breach of faith in canning Mr. Cox should not
obscure an even more central illegality: he had refused to comply with
orders, from the District Court and the Court &gt;of Appeals jo release the

Nixon.
We fail to see how even this partial list represents anything other
than a systematic subversion and perversion of the balance of our
government and of the sanctity of our laws. Enemy lists, tax audits,
and screwing political enemies need not even be mentioned. Seen in
this perspective, Mr. Nixon's attempted defiance of two court orders,
and the firing of the man he assured the public would independently
investigate his Administration, is appallingly consistent. If Mr. Nixon.is
allowed to remain in office, future Presidents, future officials will know
that they can capriciously flaunt the law and escape punishment. We
therefore advocate the impeachment of President Richard Nixon for
high crimes and misdemeanors in office.
Impeachment is a distasteful alternative; it is a long, hostile and
polarizing process. Yet by insisting on one-man rule, by consistently
ignoring the law in favor of his own prerogatives, Mr. Nixon has loft the
Congress,- and the nation, with no choice. Even his staunchest
supporters a few months ago have recognized that no law or justice can
be obtained while he remains President. Simply because there is no
other way, short of resignation, we urge Congress to impeach Mr.
Nixon.

,1

But Congress, being a skeptical, cautious body of lawmakers
continually seeking re-election, is hesitant to opt for impeachment
unless it is convinced that public opinion demands it.,We therefore urge
every American who cares about this country to take a minute to fill
out and mail the coupon opposite this page to their Congressman or
House Speaker Carl Albert. Let us show Congress where we stand. Let
us blitz the House and Senate with these telegrams of support for die
impeachment of President Nixon. Do it now!

�Even if President Nixon has committed dozens of illegal acts and deserves to be

Dear Congressman;

I strongly urge you to vote to initiate impeachment procedings against President Nixon. His latest
action, in firing special prosecutor Archibald Cox, whom he had promised Congress and the American
people would have complete independence in investigating his Admisistration, is a clear obstruction of
justice. His concession to release the tapes came only after he saw he would be unsuccessful in attempting

place himself above the law. If not for the adverse public reaction, he would

Paranoid about photos
To the Editor
I really think that the campus press has a
responsibility to check into the pictures taken by
Campus Security. Photogenic I’m not, but anybody
is free to take my picture; the only thing is, I.d like
to know where that shot winds up. I’m not a
Communist, and I don’t particularly like their style.
However, I do reserve the right to talk to anybody I
want to, and I don’t want to get turned down from a
government job ten years from now because of some
forgotten conversation in Rathskeller.
Probably Security just uses the pics for toilet
paper, dartboards or paper planes. But it’s the job of
the press to find out.

Scene: A television studio in Washington,
D.C. with dozens of outlandishly dressed,
screaming, hysterical viewers waving madly at the
camera. A voice from off-camera speaks;
‘Tonight, one of these lucky people will get a
chance to win immunity, suspended jail
sentences, light fines and a publisher’s contract
for his or her memoirs worth one million dollars.
It’s time for the American government’s favorite
game show, Let’s Make a Deal. And now, here’s
the star of Let's Make a Deal, Elliot Richardson.”
A cultivated-looking man bounces down the
aisle in an impeccable $300 pinstriped blue suit,
old school tie and large, hom-rimmed glasses.
“Hello and welcome to Let’s Make a Deal
the show that let’s you plea-bargain, seek
immunity, beg, borrow, steal or cheat your way
to fame, fortune or survival. Now, who wants to
make the first deal?”
Crowd: “Me!” “Me!” “Pick me, Elliot!”
ER: “You, the one with the ‘I want to
squeal, let’s make a deal’ sign. What is your name,
please?”
“Jeb Magruder.”
ER: “OK, Jeb. My lovely assistant Henry
Petersen is bringing a box down the aisle. It has
three drawers. Two of them contain prizes and
the third contains
a zonk. You can pick as
drawers
as
many
you want. Do you understand
how it works?”
JM: “Yes, sir.”
ER: “All right, then, open the drawers."
The tension mounts. Mr. Magruder opens the
first drawer
ER; “Congratulations, Jeb. you’ve just won
partial immunity and a lecture lour contract
worth $100,000. Do you want to pick another
drawer?"
Crowd. “No! Yes! Go on! Stop! Don’t take
a chance! Do it!”
JM’ “I’ll go on.”
Crowd: “Yeah! Whistle! Cheer! Applaud!"
ER: “He's going to pick another drawers,
folks. What a man."
He opens a second drawer. Out pops a
stern-looking judge. A collective “Aw" rises from
the crowd.
ER: “Too bad, Jcb. you’ve been zonked.
This is John Sirica and he’s taking away your
speaking engagements, for a consolation prize,
though, you gel to keep your limited immunity.
Thank you for playing Let's Make a Deal. Now
who do we have for our next deal?”
Crowd; “Me! Me! No, me! Over here, Elliot!
I’ll sell my grandmother if you pick me!”
ER: “All right, you three with the
construction helmets and the money in your cars,
let’s make a deal. Henry has just brought a
six-pack of Coca Cola down the aisle; why don’t
you tell the folks about it, Henry.”
HP; “Glad to, Elliot. This is a six-pack of
Coca Cola in the new 16-ounce size. It’s made by
Coca Cola bottlers, who once retained the law
firm of Nixon, Mudge, Rose, Guthrie and
Alexander. Remember, things go belter with
Coke.”
ER: “Now, what were your names again?
“Hammerman."
"Katz.
Contestants:
“Wolff.”
ER: “Sounds like a contractor’s firm. Well,
here’s the deal. The three of you have a choice
between the six-pack and you know we always
have something in it
or the box where the
lovely Sally Harmony is standing. What’ll it be?"
Hammerman: ‘The six-pack.”
Katz: ‘The six-pack.”
Wolff: ‘The six-pack.”

‘They all went for the six-pack, folks.

“Right, Elliot. In the box was a contract

on closed curcuit TV. However, the TV’s were not
working. By that time, groups of irritated students
returned to the Main Floor Cafeteria to listen and
were prevented from doing so by Campus Security.
Verbal confrontations erupted between students and
security as a result of poor planning on the part of

SA.

It appeared that in view of the widespread
publicity of Mr. Serling’s appearance and under the
specific circumstances, SA should have taken
immediate action. The Main Floor Cafeteria
equipped with microphones would have been
sufficient.
Finally, this brings up the whole notion of an
open university. In theory, an open university is
good. However, when the campus does not have the
facilities to accommodate even the students whose
fees ($67.00 per year) subsidize activities, then SA
should act to have activities open only to students

cause of these inconveniences must be examined. Of
primary importance was the inability of Speakers
Bureau to obtain a room large enough to handle it.
The only facility on campus capable of maintaining
more people than the Fillmore Room is Clark Hall
(Gym). However, by a 1972-73 edict of the Facilities
Planning Committee, The Gym cannot be used for

non-athletic events from October 15th through
March 1st of any given school year. Thus, the
current mechanism provides no way for the Speakers
Bureau to use the Gym. The only relief that can be
provided is the video presentation of a speech in a
such as Haas Lounge. (This was done on Wednesday
night). The Bureau cannot however insure that no
technical problems will be encountered.
However, a solution may be in signt. Speakers
Bureau Chairman Bob Burrick is currently in
negotiations with facilities planning to enable the
Bureau to have use of the Gym. My apologies to
anyone inconvenienced by the facility problem-rest
assured that all that can be done, is being done.

To the Editor.

We have the distinguished honor of being on a
committee for raising five million ($5,000,000)
dollars fc placing a statue of Richard M. Nixon in
the Hall of Fame in Washington, D.C.
The committee was in a quandary as to where to
place the statue. It was thought not wise to place it
beside the statue of George Washington, who never
told a lie, nor beside Franklin D. Roosevelt, who
never told the truth, since Nixon could never tell the
difference.
We finally decided to place it beside Christopher
Columbus, the greatest new dealer of them all. He
left, not knowing where he was going, and upon
arriving, did not know where he was. He returned,
not knowing where he had been, and did it all on
borrowed money.
Over 5000 years ago, Moses said to the Children
of Israel. “Pick up your shovels, mount your asses
and camels and 1 will lead you to the Promised
Land.” Nearly 5000 years later, Roosevelt said, “Lay
down your shovels, sit on your asses, light up a
Camel this is the Promised Land.”
Now Nixon is stealing your shovels, kicking
your asses, raising the price of Camels, and
mortgaging the Promised Land. If you are one of the
fortunate people who has any money left after
paying taxes, we will expect a generous donation as a
contribution to this worthwhile project.

To the Editor

In response to the review given by Howie Ruben
on the movie ‘Time to Run,” in the October 19,
1973 issue of The Spectrum.
I would just like to mention that my feelings
toward the movie were the complete opposite.
Perhaps being a new-born Christian influenced my
opinion.

order from a firm called "Research Assistance, Inc.”
This is the same organization that is currently
advertising in other publications, both on this and
other campuses.
It is the avowed policy of The Spectrum not to
accept advertising from concerns which publish or
make available term papers or other research projects
for direct student use. Research Assistance, however,
claimed that "our research material is sold for
research assistance only.’ We took this for what it
was worth, and immediately sent for the offered
catalog to verify their claims. In the meantime, we
held their adverlisment in abeyance.
Ax promised, (heir catalog arrived in short order.

The article titled, “Residents Hit by Problems”
in Wednesday’s The Spectrum (October 17), was
largely inaccurate and totally biased with respect to
the IRC. Although the reporter did interview
knowledgeable persons able to give him the actual
facts, the article only included the uneducated
opinions of uninformed parties. Here are a few
points of clarification:
1) The IRC has been operating effectively and
efficiently. Saleh’s absurd remark about IRC being
disorganized and SA “stepping in to lend a hand” is
totally unsubstantiated and, in fact, impossible for
the IRC is an independent organization with SA
having 0.00 input. For this we are thankful.
2) Since the beginning of September, the IRC
has made every effort to have our activities occur
jointly on both campuses. Our weekly movies are
shown on both campuses, and for every bus provided
to a concert from the Main Campus, there has been a
bus provided from Amherst. IRC has already

Keep O'Brian Open
To the Editor
Let’s keep O’Brian Hall open ’til midnite. There
are 800 students on North Campus which need a late
nite place to study. The Governor’s Residence
Complex is totally void of study facilities, in winter,
driving to and from Lockwood from North Campus
takes a lot of valuable time out of a student’s

night-time studying. This is especially true for the
large number of students who ride the bus. The loss

of time for them is much greater for they have to
wait for the bus before they go anywhere. And God
help the student who should have to make two trips
in one nite to the library; for that poor soul will
spend more time in transit than at the library.
Keeping O’Brian open ’til midnite by no means
meets the total demands of the study facility
problem for North Campus; however, it’s a good
start!

proceedings would have to originate in the House
Judiciary Committee, where 20 of its 40 members
reportedly favored moving an impeachment bill to
the Hous c floor. A majority vote of the House
(one-half plus one) is then required to initiate
impeachment, roughly the political equivalent of a
grand jury indictment, against the President. The
Sentate would then turn into a court, presided over
by Supreme Court Chief Justice Warren Burger, to
weigh the charges and decide whether they
warranted conviction.
“Impeachment resolutions are going to be
raining down like hailstones,” said Representative
John B. Anderson (R., 111.), the third-ranking
Republican in the House. About a dozen members in
the House indicated they would introduce
impeachment resolutions, including Paul McCloskey
(R., Cal.), Parren Mitchell (D., Md.), and Ogden Reid
(D., N.Y.). Rep. Waldie introduced a bill to the
House yesterday to impeach Mr. Nixon: “Obstuction
of justice is a crime where I come from, and that’s an
impeachable offense,” he said.

John McFall of California said: “Congress cannot
allow Nixon to defy the courts. We should look very
seriously at beginning impeachment proceedings.”
Opening the doors
Mr. Nixon did find some support among
conservative Republicans. Senator John Tower (R.,
Tex.) said he thought the President had acted
properly “to forestall a constitutional crisis” and did
not believe there were grounds for impeachment.
Vice Presidential-designate Gerald Ford (R., Mich.)
said Mr. Nixon had “no other choice” than to
dismiss Mr. Cox, who “was after all, a subordinate”
who defied an order. Despite widespread speculation
in Congress that JAi. Ford’s confirmation hearings
would definitely be delayed pending the outcome of
the present controversy, Democratic leaders decided
against delay. THe White House issued a statement
which said it believed Congress would not initiate
impeachment proceedings.

Rep. Thaddeus Dulski (D., Buffalo), predicted
an impeachment move by Congress, and said; “Up to
now I have been against impeachment, but this guy
has opened the doors.” Two local pro-Nixon
Republicans, Heps- Jack Kemp of Hamburg and
Barber Conable of Alexander, broke ranks with the
President and supported creating a Congressional
committee to continue the Cox investigation. Justice
Department officials “don’t have the credibility to
do it,” said Mr. Kemp, adding: “No man is above the

law and it is up to Congress
the office of the President.”

Compromise a ‘sham’
Senator Birch Bayh (D., Ind.) a member of the
House Judiciary Committee, said he would introduce
a bill for the creation of a new special prosecutor’s
office by the U.S. District Court. Mr. Bayh said: “If
this last option fails, we have no alternative but to
impeach the President and replace him with one who
recognizes that even Presidential power must be
controlled.” Many other Congressmen supported the
idea of Congressional action to create a new special 2500 to 32: impeach

Soviets to order soybeans
WASHINGTON (UPI) The Soviet Union may place
new orders for American soy beans before the end of
1973, an Agriculture Department report predicted
Monday.
The report by George Wanamaker, a specialist who
recently toured major Soviet farming areas, said the
Russians are harvesting a “good” sunflower crop this year.
But production is likely to fall about one million tons
short of meeting Soviet needs for vegetable oil and protein
meal for livestock feeding, he added.
Wanamaker said a decision to import U.S. soybeans is
expected after Soviet officials get a final reading on the
size of their 1973 sunflower seed crop, sometime before
the end of this year. Russian officials have estimated the
crop at 6 million tons, but U.S. experts think the net yield
could be about 5.3 million tons, still the best since 1970.

Tough line on guerrilas
President Hugo Banzer
LA PAZ, Bolivia (UPI)
threatened to mount a “military operation” against a band
of Tupamaro guerrillas Monday unless they accept a safe
conduct deal and release five hostages from a hijacked
Argentine airliner.
“We will put a military operation in march to avoid
the killing of people,” Banzer said at a hastily called news
conference in his home.
Banzer gave the Uruguayan guerrillas until 6 a.m. EDT
to release the hostages and accept safe conduct out of the
country. He said guerrilla demands for a getaway plane
would be refused.
The jetliner, hijacked over Argentina Saturday, is too
big to take off frpm the short airstrip and authorities said
it was a miracle it landed safety.

Phase IV calls for gasoline stations to, post the octane
rating of the gasoline and Diamond noted that using the
average “research-motor” rating as opposed to a straight
“research” figure resulted in most owners using a
higher-rated gasoline than actually needed.
Because the higher-rated octane gasolines contain
more lead, Diamond said, lead emissions are higher, the

Under the law, creditors can take no action during the

The surging cross-country Bulls picked up their
fourth win last Wednesday as they finished second in
a three way meet against Gannon and Edinboro. The
Bulls were defeated by Edinboro, 15-50. However,
the Bulls demolished Gannon, 20-40. The split gives
Buffalo a 4-8 record for the season^.
Senior Bruce Tuttle led the Bulls, finishing tenth
in the field of 25. However, it was balance that paid
off in the end. Six of the seven Buffalo runners
finished between 10th and 18th place, and ran
together throughout the race.
Coach Jim McDonough was satisfied with the
Bulls’ performance. He had not expected the Bulls to
beat Edinboro. He noted before the Vace: “Edinboro
is gonna win no matter what they do.” (Edinboro
had nine of the top ten finishers, even after their top
five runners had been scratched from the race.)
However, he was surprised at the ease with which the
Bulls beat Gannon. He commented: “I thought
they’d be much tougher.”

Unique course
The outcome of the race was not nearly as
interesting as the course itself. It was run on Presque
Isle in Lake Erie, just outside Erie, Pa., not on a golf

Golf

Bulls’ season not up to par
by Steve Lustig
Spectrum Staff Writer

The golf Bulls finished a season highlighted by
both excellent and disappointing play last Thursday.
The Bulls ended the year with an 11-2 record and a
tie
for 4th
place at the ECAC Qualifying
Tournament.

Jim Gallery and Rick Buczynski were welcome
additions to this year's squad. Gallery, who did not
play last year because of medical problems, and
Buczynski, who transferred from Miami of Ohio,
were consistently the Bulls’ best shooters. Gallery
shot his best round of the season at Fredonia where
he carded a three-under-par 69. Buczynski was the
Buffalo's most consistent golfer, shooting three
straight 77’s at the Bulls’ home course.
Buffalo had trouble in tournament play where

course or an open field. The race was run on
pavement, swamp, grass and beach. Along with the
high winds and occasional rain that prevailed during
the meet, the race was a trackman’s obstacle course.
As McDonough investigated the terrain, he surmised,
“Well, it’s not what we’re used to running on and
therefore it’s unusual.”
Edinboro coach Doug Watts was not as
encouraging. He termed the course “worthless.” In
spite of the coaches’ criticisms, most of the Buffalo
runners enjoyed the race, though they indicated that
they wouldn’t like to run it too often. They were
dissatisfied with the sandy beach. Many runners took
off their shoes and ran through the sand barefoot,
but they then had to run an additional three miles of
varied surfaces shoeless as well.
This afternoon the Bulls will be in Niagara to
face Canisius, Gannon, Buffalo State and Niagara in
what is probably the key meet of the season. Buffalo
figures to beat Canisius and Gannon, but needs to
upset both Niagara and Buffalo State to have a
chance at a .500 season. Both the Eagles and the
Bengals have already beaten Buffalo once this year,
but McDonough is hoping for an upset. “I don’t
know how we can get Buffalo State or Niagara,” he
remarked. “But Buffalo State is very thin. If they
don’t have one of their men, maybe we can get them
that way.”

some of their normally consistent players did not
play up to par. Gallery, who averaged 74.7 shots per
round, shot two 77’s including one at the qualifying
tournament. Buc/.ynski had an 80 at Brook Lea
Invitational while Marty Fink had inconsistent
rounds of 75, 82, and 84 in tournament play. These
poor showings and rounds of 86 and 88 by Jim Batt
and Steve Miller led to a ninth place finish at the
Tri-Slate Tournament and a seventh place showing at
Brook Lea where the Bulls had been defending

champions.

While the Bulls played only mediocre golf in
other tournaments, they played well at the ECAC
tournament in Syracuse, missing a trip to the
nationals by just two strokes. Buffalo was the only
team with all five players scoring in the seventies.
However, the Bulls’ failure to shoot rounds in the
low seventies (73 or better) hurt their chances.
Buffalo had already defeated the qualifiers from the
ECAC Tournament, Syracuse and Canisius during
the season by 20 strokes and a single diot
respectively.

Coach Bill Dando said: “I thought wc had a very
good season. 1 was disappointed we didn’t do well in
the tournaments, however. Wc had better golfers
than we showed.” Dando also noted that this year’s
squad was superior to last season’s team which did
far better in tournament play.
“As far as the qualifiers go, we beat Syracuse by
20 strokes here but lost to them at their home
course,” Dando continued. “The chances of Buffalo
hosting the regionals are slim because they usually
select a site that is centrally located. However we
might be able to get some tournaments during the
(spring) season at River Oaks,” Dando added.
The spring season is a short one for the Bulls
due to the end of the school year falling so early in
the golf season. The Bulls have scheduled four
matches and are planning to play in the Miami
Invitational Tournament at the University of Florida
during the Easter vacation.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Small Growth

Scholastic housing is
discovering set-backs

Friday, 19 October 1973

by Richard Korman
Spectrum Staff Writer
For at least the next few years, Scholastic
Housing, Inc. will have to content itself with a
program of small, year-by-year growth. This is a
result of Student Association (SA) and Sub-Board’s
recent decision to fund Scholastic Housing solely
from the remaining $3S,000 of its original

allocation.
According to SA Executive vice-president David
Saleh, the Student Assembly was faced with the
philosophical question of whether to allocate a large
amount of money to a project that might not utilize
the money for months or years because of lengthy
from students’
expansion. Money allocated
mandatory fees would very probably not be used for
additional houses until after those same students had
graduated.
Gradual growth
The Student Assembly feels that the remaining
$35,000 along with incdmc gained from rents and
other means, will allow Scholastic Housing to obtain
an additional 4 houses in the next S years, Mr. Saleh
said. Although Scholastic Housing had projected its
growth rate at S houses in the next S years, Mr.
Saleh minimized this difference; “The hope is that
Scholastic Housing will grow slowly and eventually
become self-perpetuating.”
Sub-Board 1 has adopted a similar position
toward Scholastic Housing, and will continue to
disperse funds to Housing out of the remaining
$35,000. Business manager Lester Goldstein
maintained that Scholastic Housing would have
sufficient “equity" and income to grow slowly.
According to Mr. Goldstein: “if $70,000 (the
original allocation) is enough, there is no need to

spend $90,000. And $70,000 is enough.”
Mr. Goldstein admitted that the question of
how Scholastic Housing spent its money led back to
the question of who has final control. In the case of
Scholastic housing. Sub-Board has final control over
the purchase of real property.
Additionally, the Housing Corporation submits
a general budget to Sub-Board. Within this budget,
the corporation has a free hand in most minor
expenditures, but most major expenses must be
submitted to Sub-Board for review.
Tight money
Questioned as to how long it would be before
the remaining $35,000 was allocated. Mr. Goldstein
replied: “There is no time period on the
committments.”
Housing’s only hope for additional funds was an
application pending before the Department of
Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for SI.275
million in federal funds.However, President Nixon’s
freeze on all federal housing grants has virtually
eliminated any chance that the application will be
accepted.
The decision not to grant any new allocations to
Scholastci Housing has all but eliminated any
aspirations to purchase apartment buildings instead
of large houses with many single rooms, according to
Sub-Board treasurer Jennifer Washburn. Cooperative
living in apartment buildings has been a goal of
Scholastic Housing almost since it began, she
explained. It almost negotiated the purchase of an
apartment building in 1972. “We were close to
closing,” said Ms. Washburn, herself a member of the
Scholastic Housing executive committee at the time.
“But ‘close’ was the difference between $50,000 and
$350,000,” Mr. Goldstein added.

Project provides link between
prisoners and community
by Jacqui Schock
Spectrum Staff Writer
The Attica Build Project is one of a number of new
Community Action Corps (CAC) programs designed to
increase student involvement in the community. Formed by
“Bridge,” an organization concerned with increasing
interaction between the prison and the outside community,
the Attica Build Project was one response to the glaring
weaknesses of the prison system publicized during the
aftermath of the 1971 Attica riots.
According to CAC Social Services
coordinator Elise Chayet: ‘The expressed interest in the program.

would greatly aid this re-entry
process.

Preparation for release
For two years, “Bridge” has
recruited and trained volunteers
to help the inmate prepare for his
release from prison. In keeping
with its goals, ‘Bridge” would like
to involve the student population
for the first time in its work at the
Attica and Albion Correctional
Facilities. Student volunteers are

“Bridge asks for a six-month
committment from the volunteers
in order to insure the stability
required in such a relationship.
Ms. Chayet also mentioned
other new CAC projects. “We arc
looking into the question of
public open space for recreational
areas in Buffalo,” she said. “We
research the project, find funding,
look into staffing, and find

manpower to construct it.”
Housing Inspection is another
recently-developed CAC program.
Action coordinator Marti Thome
explained;
“Many
students,
members of the working class and
minority groups have been taken
advantage of by landlords due to
inefficient laws.” She pointed out
that Housing Inspection “involves
initial research into the legal
process and zoning laws, and
possibly introducing bills to alter

bad laws.”
The Fair Hearing program
enables a person to be represented
in court if he feels he is being
cheated in any way. “CAC wants
to find officials or lawyers to
teach people at the State
University of Buffalo about
welfare laws, so they can actually
go into the community and assist
in these kind of cases,” Ms.
Chayet said.
Anyone interested in special
education can help retarded
children in speech and hearing by
working
classrooms,

after-school
or
programs,
children’s hospitals. Additionally,
students are needed for remedial
reading seminars. CAC will
arrange to place a student in one
of the various centers by

CAC also needs volunteers to

"Rather than throw volunteers

Carlin. “Ms. Thome added:
‘There’s plenty of room for
initiating ideas and innovations."
She noted CAC wants to start

other projects in addition to their
already-established programs.
Ms. Chayet said: ’‘If people are
interested and want to participate
this interest, CAC will provide an
area in which it can be executed.
Although CAC did not start all
the projects, it has resource
contacts with many community
projects."’

Staff

Writer

His wife has described him as an “over-the-hill
constipated Sicilian prizefighter,” but Rod Serling is
better known to television audiences as the man
from "The Twilight Zone." Mr. Sorting has
admittedly spent “eighteen years building up the
image” of a tall, ageless and grim man with a look
“capable of strangling small children.” Last
Wednesday evening, those same small children of
yesteryear crowded Norton Hall’s Fillmore Room to
listen to Mr. Serling’s pontificate on the “Absurdities
of the Twentieth Century.”
Mr. Serling, President of the Television
Academy of Arts and Sciences, eased into his address
with several humorous remarks about the rigors of
the lecture circuit, noting that he had slept a total of
four hours during the last three days. After he had
successfully loosened up his audience, Mr. Serling
began his assault, first centering his attack on
television. He described this media as “the bland
leading the bland,” particularly condemning the tube
for its “violence and redundancy.”
Euphoria, not reality
Occasionally, he conceded, there is “a flash of
creativity”. Mr. Serling displayed great pessimism
regarding the fact that while the Watergate hearings
were on television, too many people wanted their
soap operas back. According to the writer, the
audience’s “tastes run to euphoria rather than
reality.”
Both the profit-seeking networks and insipid
commercials were denounced by the speaker as the
cause of television’s current dilemma. ‘There’s at
least one commercial for every three minutes of
news,” said Mr. Serling, which range from
“pseudo-funny to downright stomach-turning." He
added: “You could easily go from the agony of

Vietnam to the heartbreack of psoriasis.”
The Supreme Court ruling on pornography was
discussed next, as Mr. Serling said that “dirty"
movies were not new, they were simply called “stag
films” a few years ago. “Sex is part of our times,” he
explained, but is it to be “an act of love or the right
of gratification?"
Who should censor?
As a writer, however, he finds censorship
“uniquely menacing.” “Who has the right to
censorship?” asked Mr. Serling. While sex films are

being closed down, television violence continues to
flourish. “No one worries about the psyche of the

young,” he commented.
Mr. Serling paused briefly to warn the audience

that the next “absurdity” might offend and shock
certain people. He then denounced the current
Washington administration the “most
corrupt .incompetent and immoral administration in
the history of the republic.” After the applause
subsided, he expressed a distrust for those occupying
high offices. Mr. Serling refered to the events of last
Friday as a “circus” when President Nixon
“annointed” Gerald Ford to the Vice-Presidency.
However, he praised “those two dogged courageous
for bringing
reporters from the Washington Post
Watergate out into the open.
”

Give a damn

Quite abruptly, the tone of his address changed.

Mr. Serling said he was confident of the good on
earth, and that now was not a bad time to live. His
dream is that all men be “content” while the earth
“rights” itself. More importantly, he stressed, it is
imperative that all men “do care, do commit, that
we all give a damn.”
Mr. Serling was then honored with a standing
ovation by everyone, including those in the back of
the Fillmore Room who were unable to hear the
speaker. This problem plagued much of the
audience, who interrupted the address to express
their dissatisfaction. Mr. Serling appeared
sympathetic, but nothing could be done to alleviate
the diffuciilty.
The floor was then opened to questions, which
mostly concerned Mr. Serling’s television career. He
could not remember his opening “shriek” from The
he
Twilight Zone. “This is the fifthdimension
recalled, but he had trouble from there. His ideas for
the show came from the far reaches of his
imagination, but he clearly does not practice what he
preached: “I have to turn on the light when I go to
the attic.” He vows he will never go back to
television, however.
Someone then asked why he appeared in so
many commercials if he was so opposed to them.
Mr. Serling did not really answer the Question, he
merely expressed the hope that whatever he
appeared in was not too offensive. When he was
requested to speak at the North Campus, the speaker
asked if it was a bar. You are no leaving the Twilight
Zone.

More dissatisfaction
Dissatisfaction with the alleged growing power
of the executive was also reflected by the election of
Assembly members to the Executive Committee.
The nominees were called upon to identify
themselves and, if they desired, to tell why they
want to serve on this committee. The nominees
expressed doubts as to whether student interests

were being effectively represented, and voiced fears
that the Assembly would become a “rubber stamp”
body. Suggestions for the development of a “ruling
clique” drew no response. Assembly members Mark
Humm, Frank Jackalone and Mark Carlin were
elected to the Executive Committee.
The Assembly also approved the appointment of
three undergraduate student judges and three

The Jewish question
A motion lor recognition of Jewish students as a
group, making them eligible for such
benefits as additional funding by Minority Student
Affairs, was defeated. Assembly member Sam Prince
termed it “an injustice to Jews of this campus .
that they are not recognized as a minority.” Mr
Palefsky replied that the University has set standards
for the recognition of minority groups, and that
Jews do not meet the established guidelines. He did
not elaborate. Mr. Palefsky called the move foi
recognition as a minority group “ridiculous.”
A move to revoke recognition of SUSA (State
University Student Association) at the next SASU
meeting, and to push for a stale-wide boycott of
SUSA, was rejected. Delegate Paul Kade fell that
since the representatives for both organizations were
the same, the continued existence of SUSA would be
"adding a legitimate voice to SASU ."
C hairman Dave Saleh called attention to the
problems of students on the North Campus,
particularly the lack of activities and disappointment
in the Inter-Residence Council (IRC ). He called for a
committee to begin functioning on the Amherst

Fueling the conflict
As supporters of both the Israeli and Arab causes in the current
Mideast conflict become further entrenched in political dogma and
“just" causes, one thing is forgotten: a tragic, bloody war is going on.
No matter who is "right" in this dispute, people are being killed,
maimed and wounded. Whether one sincerely believes that the Arab or
Israeli position is justified, supporters should be praying for peace, not
the annilhilation of the enemy.
There is no doubt that Israel was attacked. Tel Aviv knew the Yom
Kippur attack was coming, but chose not to strike first so the world
could clearly see who was the aggressor. For a country with an
increasingly military image, this was a wise political choice, although
the price was paid in lives. Egypt's recent cease-fire offer, with the
provision that Israel return the Arab lands occupied in the 1967 war,
makes clear that Egypt and Syria's surprise offensive was designed to
gain a foothold in the occupied territories and then press for a peace

settlement.

To Arab supporters who denounce "Zionist expansionism," Israel's
refusal to yield the territories seized in 1967 seems unreasonable. Yet it
must be remembered that tiny Israel, surrounded by hostile neighbors,
has had to fight for its survival ever since its creation, in 1948, 1956,
1967 and again in 1973. It desired to keep the Arab territories not out
of expansionist desires, but as a buffer zone against Arab aggression. If
Israel could be assured of military security, it would be far more willing
to part with the seized lands, but Tel Aviv is understandably sceptical
of recent Arab statements that they do not desire Israel's annihilation.
Any ountry that has been invaded by neighbors as often as Israel
would naturally be wary of assurances from opponents who have never
Egypt
recognized its very right to exist. These two conflicting desires
and Syria's desire for the return of occupied lands, Israel's insistence on
secure borders
are at the heart of the Mideast war. Any compromise
solution will have to satisfy both demands, perhaps through a partial
return of Arab lands accompanied by some form of international
peace-keeping machinery. The United Nations, though, has been
appallingly ineffective throughout the crisis.
The biggest danger of the localized conflict, of course, is its
escalation to include outside powers. Unfortunately, the war has
underscored the fact that detente is more shadow than substance, and
that mutual restraint by the two superpowers of conflicting ideologies,
as pledged in recent U.S.-Soviet agreements, has not yet materialized.
The resulting situation is that a war which might have exhauseted itself,
through heavy casualties and depletion of war materiel, could
conceivably continue indefinitely as America and Russia fuel the war
machines of the opposing combatants. Predictably, both sides are
blaming the other for lack of restraint, but the U.S. "decision to
resupply Israel was clearly forced by the massive Soviet airlift of
weapons to the Arabs. The U.S. initially hesitated, hoping for mutual
Soviet restraint, but when the magnitude of the Russian airlift became
apparent, the American commitment to Israel’s survival mandated
against allowing a change in the military balance in the Middle East.
One wonders why the Soviets, who had even overlooked the
mining of Haiphong harbor in May 1972 in their eagerness for
improved U.S. relations, would decide to so blatantly back the Arabs
and risk the technological and trade benefits of detente. Perhaps they
are unsatisfied with the tangible benefits to date, as favored tariff status
has been blocked by a Congress responding to American public opinion
on Soviet domestic repression. And perhaps they felt the leverage of
Arab oil, now being applied in monthly 5% reductions aimed at the
U.S., would force the U.S. to pressure Israel into a settlement favorable
to the Arabs.
If so, the Soviets underestimated the American commitment to
Israel's survival, and the fact that Tel Aviv makes up its own mind. And
perhaps the relatively mild 5% oil cutback reflects that the Arabs want
to emphasize their ability to use oil as a political weapon, but
understand that any large-scale embargo would be interpreted as a
"hostile set" and wreak serious consequences. The U.S. has stood firm
on the oil question: we will not be blackmailed, as history repeatedly
has taught that capitulation to blackmail only invites more of the same.
In the midst of this human tragedy, peace-loving people can only
hope that Egypt's willingness for a cease-fire, plus recent diplomatic
initiatives between the U.S. and the Soviet Union, will provide the basis
for a compromise solution acceptable to both sides. But while these
diplomatic peace making efforts continue, the U.S. must continue to
support Israel. VVith a Soviet Union strongly fueling the Arab cause, an
American "even-handed" approach would actually mean the
abandonment of Israel. Only by offsetting the Soviet escalation and
maintaining some semblance of balance in the Mideast can we convince
the protagonists that military victory is both costly and impossible, and
that cease-fire negotiations are the wisest route to resolve this bitter
conflict.

by Barry Kaplan
This past Tuesday night the American television
audience was treated to the first showing of a new
series entitled, “I’m Just an Innocent Victim.” This
show was based on the best programs that television
used to offer: The Fugitive, The Lone Ranger, and
of course, the beloved Checkers Show. This week
our protagonist was beset by cowardly, sniveling
enemies hiding behind the twin pillars of Law a
charge of political corruption, and the plot revolved
around how he would deal with such charges. As
true to the format of all Greek tragedies, the
protagonist presented himself as a man tragically
wroned, but a man who would rise above the
pettiness of his enemies and sacrifice himself upon
the sutt«fe of “National Good.”
As is the case with most modern dramas
attempting to revive and utilize an earlier stylistic
form, this one suffered from a slavish imitation to
style rather than an emphasis on content. The notion
of a hero suffering from the slings of outrageous
fortune has seen its day on television, although it
enables the American viewing public to re-acquaint
themselves with half-forgotten people like Lincoln,
Washington and James Garfield. As a drama, it was
definitely exciting, due to the excellent acting of the
lead character, although the set decoration and props
were definitely inferior to similar productions.
After months of publicity and excitement, the
producers were finally able to present this program;
although the groundlings, who admire this actor as a
hero in real life, wished to postpone it till right after
the ABC Monday night football game to attract a
larger audience. However, all of this hoopla came to
naught on Tuesday night due to a week script and an
incredibly cliched dialogue. The script constantly
contradicted itself, and although it was an attempt
to elucidate important points in our hero’s defense,
it raised more questions than it attempted to answer.
In our protagonist’s opening remarks, he
attempted to dispel any image that he was engulfed
in “a paroxysm of bitterness,” yet the entire script
dropped innuendos and charges that our hero was
being railroaded. In fact, although our leading man
praised the “deity in charge,” another critic noted in
The Nashville Banner that the God in charge
supposedly threw our hero to the dogs. This
description of pressure and abandonment from
above does not fit the script as it was presented to
American viewers.
The script was based on the common premise
that the protagonist was completely innocent of all
the charges presented, and that his only reason for
resigning was to save the country from the “ordeal
of division and uncertainty... subjecting the
country to a further agonizing period of months
without an unclouded successor for the Presidency.”

Very little mention was made concerning a 40-page
legal brief which disclosed in detail the substantial
charges that the Republican prosecutor had
accumulated. The specter of a leading male character
actor being intimidated by “false” allegations raised
the question of sincerity and truthfulness. How
could he admit to a petty little income tax charge
unless he did have something to hide? Although the
money might not have been put to “personal use,”
the implication was that it had been used for
campaign purposes.
The script utilized the concept of a “new
post-Watergate political morality” in which our hero
and
fund-raising
admitted
that
his
contract-dispensing activities might have been
“unethical and unlawful.” The script-writers are
under the assumption that laws have been changed
since Watergate, and as we all know, they have
remained the same. Therefore, what was illegal then
is illegal now, and verbal acrobatics and mental
convolutions do not change this fact. To insinuate
that our'hero was a babe in the woods, is to remake
Greek drama into a video version of Dondi. It seems
that the script-writers, in their effort to return to the
style of Greek tragedies, have forgotten that the
unfortunate Greek hero usually did something that
displeased the Gods, and as a result, was afflicted by
tragedy.
Our protagonist does fit the description of a
tragic figure, but he due to a weak script and an
incredibly cliched dialogue. The script from the war
dead while the headers plunder whole cities. His
attempt to wear the trappings of a mythical leader
a towering figure above the hurly-burly of petty
nonsense
is outdated and not in the true National
Interest. To revive the tragic Greek drama of a
mythical hero sacrificing himself for the good of the
country is not only a bore to more sophisticated
viewers, but poor style and taste. This show might
have been better in a game format and scheduled
along with the Dating Game, To Tell the Truth,
Hollywood Squares and other shows of public
interest.
Now that the program has finally hit the old
boob tube, there is no doubt that sequels have been
planned by the producers. The trend in television is
now toward the revival of old shows, and there are
rumors about that the star of the old “Checkers”
show is planning a comeback. Since the Greek
tragedy style has been utilized by the show just
reviewed, there is considerable debate over what
format this sequel should use. However, whatever
the format, there can be no doubt that the quality of
acting will be of the highest caliber, and great use
will be made of props and ceremonial articles.
Hdpefully the show can be previewed at the earliest
possible time, for there are many people in this
country who are anxious for its debut.

�Female ‘Maids'

Production of Genet's
play has shortcomings

The

Theater

Department's

production of Jean Genet's The Maids

Harriman Theater was an
and
experiment in role-playing
role-reversal. The female cast
performed Genet's emotionally brutal
and perverse drama about two French
domestics, Solange and Claire. They
play a continuing game whose object is
the murder of their mistress.
Genet's play itself, for all its
emotional impact, never seems to go
anywhere. From its opening lines,
when Claire, acting the role of
Madame, declares, "Everything that
comes out of the kitchen is spit!" the
theme of servant/master exploitation
and hatred is merely repeated and
never developed. This is one of Genet's
many weaknesses as a playwright.

Clutter and confusion

Arts staff

Psycho-drama,

meta-theater, the
French homosexual-criminal Jean
Genet's work The Maids was presented
by the Theater Department, last week
in Harriman Studio. It was performed
with two casts, one female and one
male, each playing on alternate nights.
Playwright Jean Genet pioneered a
of
somewhat statling philosphoy
theater which entails a truth paradox.
He believed that for an actor to play
his role, he must play it false. That is
to say, the actor must play his role as
an actor, not his character, because the
character is merely falsely acting out
some stigma set by society. To attain
truth in this manner, the phoniness in
acting must be recognized by the
actors and directors. Otherwise the
becomes, one

of
inadequacy instead of art.
Unfortunately, the almost male cast
appeared to more like the latter, and
not without the help of fate. Director
Elizabeth Axelrod intended to field a
totally male cast, but was unable to.
The cast consisted of three members:
Claire and Solange, (played by Patrick
Mruphy
and Theresa DePaulo,
respectively) who are sisters and maids
for the same madame (David Balsom),
a wealthy society woman.

The actors' energies appeared to me
misdirected. Many fiery exchanges
lacked true emotion. The script itself
was cluttered
with profound
statements that flew by faster than
they could be examined. Many of the
images were unclear and most of the
sarcasm missed. Director Axelrod
should have paid more attention to the
contrasts and differences between
characters than to their similarities and
interchangeability.

Sexual overtones in the production
were skillfully handled. The play
opened with an allusion to Solange
having a fettish for rubber gloves. The
tactile nature of the characters, their
strange love-hate relationship builds to
an emotional orgasm by Solange. She
finally explodes at Claire, playing the
Madame, and beats her with a riding
crop. This was the point of the fantasy
game to begin with, which reality, in
the form of an alarm clock, previously
interrupted.

This time the game ends with
reality, the death of Claire, who
purposely drinks poisoned tea that was
to be the vessel for the
Madame's murder. Reality quickly
vanishes as Solange believes the
Madame is dead, not Claire. A false
sense of freedom overwhelms her.

production best: "I should have read it

through her pretense df Claire. Claire,
in her pretense of the Madame, is
beaten by Solange (playing Claire). A
sado-masochistic relationship develops
as they are constatly flashing back and
forth between reality and the game.
Their fantasy also involes a plot to
discredit the Madame's husband and
murder the Madame.
Out of a hatred for their job and
the low, closed social position it places
them in, the maids' fantasy develops.
Using a male cast enhances the theme
by making the players transvestites.

presentation reveals its own intriguing
view of transvestism. An attempt to
present the show with Claire and
Madame male and Solange female can
only lead to confusion.
In a play where fantasy and reality
switch back and forth and with actors
popping in and out of different
characters, it is necessary for the actor
to adapt a subtle means of cluing the
audience as to which character they
are playing at the moment. Patrick
Murphy failed to do this to any great
extent and Theresa DePalo was barely

It seems that Solange’s and Claire's

The roles they play when acting
imperceptibly blend into their real

realizes it. The play culminates in
Claire committing suicide while
playing Madame, thus killing her
enemy symbolically as she kills herself
The symbolism may not have been so
apparent to Claire
Marlene Rosenthal and Theresa
DePaolo gave excellent performances
as the two servants, while June Dueli
as Madame was weak, and seemed to

Genet's Madame is about twenty-five.
The staging and direction were
adequate. The Theater Department
deserves credit for putting an obvious
amount of effort into this production,
but it fell far short of good theater,
perhaps because it overplayed Genet's
inherent emotionalism and left the
subtler elements of the drama in
shadow. However, a large part of the
shortcomings of this production can
be blamed on the shortcomings of
Genet himself, and it's difficult at
times to see exactly where the fault
liei.

�Coffeehouse

Country and blues with Kaz
Like many of the artists who have workecf the
UUAB Coffeehouse, singer/songwriter Eric Justin
Kaz plays best before a small audience in an
atmosphere that allows interaction with the listeners.
Those who follow country and blues music will
recognize Eric as the writer of several songs made
popular by some fairly well-known artists. The list of
songs include. Bonnie Raitt's "Love Has No Pride,"
Tracy Nelson's
"Mother Earth," and Linda
Ronstadt's "I Won't Be Hanging Round." Kaz will
be appearing at the UUAB Coffeehouse, located on
the first floor of Norton Hall, tonight and tomorrow
night.
Although he's known primarily as a writer, Kaz
has performed with a number of successful groups.
After dropping out of New York's Hunter College he
moved to the Village and did time as a backup
musician before hooking up with Happy and Arty
Traum to form a band called the Children of
Paradise. He began playing with the Blues Magoos
shortly after and performed on their highly
successful LP "Never Coin Back to Georgia."
Kaz's talents go far beyond performing. Two of

Nelson, and Ronstadt are just a few of the women
that have recorded his songs and admired his talent.
Eric Kaz's songs are the main thing. His tunes
combine religious fervor with simple elegance and
reflect the long tedious hours of effort that went
into their making. Several of the songs (most notably
"Mother Earth") show definite strain; of Gospel
influence. Many of Kaz's lyrics display an inner
conflict tempered by a firm belief in himself.

applause for Mayall
crowd
\thunderous

Sell-out

John Mayall. I've been listening and following John Mayall for a
good number of years. I've seen him go through a lot of trips in an
ever-changing approach to music. Last Friday night at Kleinhans Music
Hall proved to be no different, as Mayall introduced his relatively new
band and their new record, Ten Years Gone. After seeing a sell-out
crowd (yeah, I was surprised it was sold out, too!) bombard the band
mercilessly with applause, recapping Mayall's unheralded music career
now would be useless. Everyone knows the people he has molded and
the music he has produced. Now he's put together a heavily
jazz-influenced aggregation that can play blues as well as jazz.
“Since everyone wants to hear 'Room to Move' we'll start things
off with that." That fine cut from the Turning Point Ip, with drums
brought to us by Keef Hartley, came across quite nicely. Mayall
delivered some moving riffs on harp, later followed by a good break by
Red Holloway on alto sax. To the delight of the crowd, Mayall
proceeded to carry the melody by producing different sounds with his
mouth. Chicky, chicky wah?
"We're going to do something now, sort of a little jam, but most of
these don't have titles anyway." The song ended up to be a bluesy-jazz
number which featured Victor Gaskin taking a bass break. Shit, I
haven't seen a band sponsor a bass break since Captain Beefheart
appeared at Clark Hall.
No jive! I

"Look, this is no jive. Man, your record collection can't be
complete unless you got a Freddie Robinson album in your collection.
Yeah, now. I'm gonna do one off my album, "Off The Cuff," which is
also called "Off The Cuff." Robinson on lead let fly some beautiful
crying blues notes to start the number off. The band slowly melted in
and together fused into a nice, light jazz movement. Robinson sang as
the band reverted back to a bluesy tempo.
Mayall did a number of songs from the band's new Ip, Ten Years
Gone. "Better Let It Pass You By" and "Driftin’’ sounded tight and
diversified. The rhythms and melodies were always synchronically
changing, adding to the group's intricate and complex sound. "Driftin’’
featured Blue Mitchell on trumpet, hitting some ear-piercing notes. At
one point Mayall, Hartley and Mitchell sat down on the edge of the
stage during "Driftin." Hartley had his drum sticks and was ganging out
the beat on the rim of the stage as Mayall played some nice harp against
Mitchell's trumpet. Then Robinson sat down in front of the drums and
started playing a simple beat. The unrehearsed jam brought the crowd
to a standing applause.

'The Good Time Lady," a good jazz number, and the encore
ended the night. I would like to take some timy out to discuss Mayall's
new image. I've seen Mayall perform many times with different bands,
but I have never seen him appear to be more involved in his music as he
seemed to be last Friday night. He was very active on stage, moving
back and forth and always talking to either the musicians or the crowd.
He seems to have reached his musical plateau, both professionally and
aesthetically.

From Louisberg, Pennsylvania came Fred to warm up the anxiou.s
crowd. They proved to be very good musicians independently, with a
lot of potential under neath their Focus-oriental sound. I mildly
enjoyed their performance, mainly because they drifted tightly from
rock structures to jazz and back to rock again. The lead and bass
guitarists appeared to be quite polished and refined. Fred performed a
pastoral that sounded like the theme song from The Prisoner. A
high-pitched, well-placed, electrified violin stuch out in {he break. The
entire concert made for a quite enjoyable experience.

the word is yesterday. Nostalgia has

swept through the land with 1950's fashions, 1950's
music, and 1950's films like American Graffiti. With
this nostalgia wave in full blossom, the time was ripe
for the re-release of the Merian C. Cooper

production This is Cinerama.
Television was a big blow to the movie industry
early 1950's. The convenience of being

entertained in your own home, instead of in a
distant theater, was slowly being realized; people
were buying more television sets. To compete with
the television menace, the movie moguls began
coming up with new techniques and gimmicks to
re-attract those viewers lost to the tube. Color
productions became more and more common, and
such far-out methods as the infamous "3-D Movies"
and special movie-viewing eyeglasses were a part of
this effort.
The innovation of the 3-lens camera, where each
lens was aimed at a different angle, was successfully
used in creating a three-dimensional effect (sans
glasses). This made the viewer feel as if he were in
the middle of the action.
method called for three different
each capturing one of three angles.
Stereophonic sound was also used, and together with
the awesome picture, it created an arousing visual
and audio experience.
This creation was dabbed "Cinerama," and a
group of men, including newscaster-traveller Lowell
Thomas, met and formed Cinerama Productions. The
organization
planned,
as Thomas said, "to
revolutionize the movie industry" with its
brainchild.
Unfortunately for Cinerama Productions, it was
not the only innovator of wide-screen methods.
Cinemiracle, Cinemascope, VistaVision, Superscope,
and "ultrawide" Todd-AO were among other new
"revolutionizing" techniques employed. Alas, poor
Cinerama's high production costs caused it to be
passed by in favor of far cheaper wide-screen
methods. But, rejoice, nostalgia buffs, for just before
the drowning, ol' Lowell Thomas made a
demonstration film of his method, and it still lives
today, for THIS IS CINERAMA /

And with those historic words, you suddenly
find yourself on a mountainous, snake-like
rollercoaster. The upsy-downsy feeling is not present
to a real extreme, but it is there all right. In later
sequences this demonstration takes you to an opera.
a church choir, and the Vienna Boys' Choir of 1952
to display the stereophonic sound. To show off its
visual effects, the film views a ballet, a bullfight in
Spain, Scotland and Niagara Falls.

Most notable of the Cinerama traits viewed in
this demonstration is the visibility of three chunks of
picture. The three different angles come together in
strangely-pasted-together lines at intervals across the
screen. 'Three dimensional reality" is disturbed
"slightly" with the sight of two-headed,
two-mouthed, or three-armed creatures. Yet, this
aspect of the film has its redeeming value. The 50’s
was an age of new discoveries, crude imitations of
modern equipment, and the continuing process of
"getting the bugs out."
All wet
Though

Thomas originally had claimed the
movie was not a straight-forward travelogue, you
would never know it from his segment on Florida's
Cyprus Gardens. The tour at first radiantly glows
with nature, but soon is snubbed out with just too
much showmanship, including a water show and rich
bits of humor (repeated scenes of an employee who
is constantly late).
However, as logic would dictate. Cinerama is
most affective in short, scenic segments, when it
glides along at the pace at which the viewer's eyes
peruse the big silver screen.
Everything is excused with Lowell Thomas'
narrative tour of the continental United States,
which closes the last half-hour of this Cineramic
experience. The sweeping tour of the Midwest and
the West Coast is worth the price of admission alone.
The rigid mountain cliffs, wavering wheat on a
summer day, peaked mountains breaking through
the clouds, and deep blue lakes, all shown to the
musical accompaniment of America, really gives one
pride in the beauty of this land, in a time when too
much beauty is being obscured.
Aging beauties

It has been twenty-one years since This is
Cinerama was originally released in New York, and
received praise from the excited critics of the day.
But today, the film shows its age. It failed to
revolutionize the cinema.
The Holiday Theater does not have the curling
concave screen which cinerama's backers had hoped
would adorn Cineramically-designed theaters of the
future. To get the maximum three-dimensional
effect, it is highly recommended that you sit in the
first five rows if possible, or right in front of the
screen if you can get away with not being
bombarded by the others who are trying to
experience their Cineramic trip along with you.
Do not be disappointed after viewing This is
Cinerama if you do not get as motion-sick as the last
time you took an Allegheny Airlines flight. After all.
Cinerama does affect different people in different
ways.

So with that warning in mind, feel free to rough
it down to the Holiday Theater in Cheektowaga if
you are interested in seeing a good sample of the
creative mind of yesterday's America.

Our Weekly Reader

Do With Me What You Will by Joyce Carol Date*
(Vanguard Press, $7.95)

I have been following the career of Joyce Carol Oates
with a certain dull fascination. Six novels, four books of
short stories, three books of poetry. What does such
productivity indicate?
Well, to start, Oates' productivity itself has occasioned
snide reactions from some critics who see her as a sort of
machine woman. Truly, a month cannot go by without
encountering Miss Oates in some form or another. Her
field of play includes the Women's Home Magazines, the
Little Reviews, semi-serious mags like Atlantic and
Harper's, high class glossies like Esquire and Playboy. Can
any other writer be said to cover as much territory?
Critics like Alfred Kazin have begun to take Miss
Oates very seriously. Miss Oates takes herself very, very
seriously. A Mister Calvin Bedient covered the front page
of Sunday's Book Review with a vague and rabid review
that ran the gamut from Existential Risk and Zen
Philosophy to D.H. Lawrence and "psyches like prehistoric
organisms, creatures alt spines and terrible soft
undersides." Excess.
While travelling through Europe I found many
Americans (both middle-class tourists and university
is there really any difference?) reading Miss
backpackers
Oates along with other writers: Irving Wallace, Irving
Stone, Arthur Hailey. While it was distressing to discover
Young Americans reading paperback editions of the same
trash their parents buy more expensively from the book
syndicates; it was satisfying to discover that whatever
Oates' own high-brow pretensions may be, her audience
has got her absolutely pegged.
Given the nature of her audience, Oates'productivity
no
more appalling than that of a Simemon. Do With Me
is
What You Will's advertising copy is absolutely accurate
("The story of Elena, seemingly fated to a life of
domination by others, who frees herself through forbidden
love.'') Oates' publishers needn't cheapen or sensationalize
her themes in order to sell her works. This has been done
for them.
Do With Me What You Will is written in four sections.
In the first, Elena Ross is kidnapped by her ex-father from
her school-yard. He lifts up the fence and she crawls
through. She is driven cross-country by this crazed and
cruel man (but his cruelty is of course, isn't it always in
Oates? born out of the extemities of love.) He gets her to
California, dyes her beautiful blonde hair black, imprisons
her in a room where she doesn't care to eat (intestinal
infection) and where cooties and other nasties infest her
because her kind daddy sees that she doesn't like to
shower. This is made logical (in Oatesian logic) because
Leo the daddy has himself abandoned the faucet.
—

Daddy goes to the movies one day and never comes
back. His body is never found. Nor has anyone seen him
leave the movie house. Miss Oates, listen, this is a cheap
mystery. Dickens (who wrote as much as you want to)
killed his characters off in odd ways, too. But he went
bazoo trying to scientifically justify spontaneous
combustions and things of that sort.
Anyway, Elena is found by her mother in a Children's
Hospital. She is taken home. She is turned into a model.
She has rare beauty. She rarely speaks. She looks at things
but doesn't see them. Men desire her wildly. The end of
Part One sees her married off to the older Marvin Howe,
the Most Successful, Strange, and Brilliant Criminal
Lawyer in the United States.
Part Two summarizes the life of Jack Morrissey,
Elena's "forbidden love" lover-to-be. His father, old
Joseph 'Temporary Insanity" Morrissey shoots a man. He
is defended by (surprise!) Marvin Howe. Young Jack is led
by Marvin through an over prepared bit of testimony
which frees his father. Jack decides to become (surprise!) a
lawyer. After several miles of bland description of his work
bet you
on civil rights cases (situations in the South
can't guess a one of them). Jack marries a woman named
Rachel and falls in love with Elena.
Essentially, Parts One and Two have been three
hundred and six pages of exposition.
Part Three is all novel, or should be. It is called
"Crime" and is about Elena and Jack's extramarital affair.
Embarrasssing and over affected Lawrentian passions.
Part Four decides numb, dumb Elena (whose dialogue
in the novel is limited mostly to "I don’t know") to leave
her husband. Hooray, finally existential risk. She goes out
to get the man she really feels Kierkegaardian dread about.
About time.
The whole affair (561 pages) is studded with
flash-forwards to a later, happier time when Elena and
Jack will flash back and tell each other about their lives.
Yeah, this novel is very, very cyclic. It ends and begins
again. This is all tied (isn’t everything?) to some vague
notion Oates entertains in regard to the applicability of
Yeat's cycles to American middle-class family life.
-

novel. Similarly, passion becomes for Oates an excuse for
pretentious language; we hear more about "secret blood"
and "raw, exposed nerve" than we'd care to. In other
words Oates' philosophically metaphysical thematic (Law)
is expressed in pragmatic language ( the unambiguous
precise language of American lawyers.) Her D.H. Lawrence
matrix (passion) is expressed in degraded, cheap language
(the imprecise, sludgy sentimental language of women's
Gothic Romance.)
And yet Oates is not the inept writer so many critics
would like to make her. Her successes are often a product
of her failures.
Joyce Carol Oates writes fiction the way other folks
would man an ambulance. A character signals a bloody
S.O.S. and the novel rushes, sirens blaring, to the scene of
an accident: slit wrists, shot-up bodies, raped women.
Once the blood is stanched and the danger is past, the
ambulance goes cruising till its next emergency call. The
question; can any novel endure one hundred and forty
pages of uninterrupted cruise?

Oates can do something no other writer I've
encountered can do. She can assemble a set of unbelievable
character in impossible situations and by setting not the
scene but the psychic state, she produces a fiction that can
sometimes be psychologically gripping and emotionally
real. Her problem as a novelist is that when obsession and
paroxysm are not generating a force-field, her characters
are revealed in an earthy, demystified state; when they
have to face the light of day they are revealed as
pathologically boring zombies.
Oates is in control of her characters only when they
themselves are wildly out of control. When the world as it
is demands treatment
a world run by gravity, by
her characters become
physical law, by common sense
—

—

implausible, her prose becomes bland, fatty, infuriating.
When the characters are at rest the prose becomes
obsessive. Senseless repetitions, verbal stutters; Excess.
The reader becomes aware that in the absence of the spurts
of "temporary insanity" that make the characters perform,
Oates is trying to hyperventilate language make language
—

The thematic dialectic in Do With Me What You Will
is between the Law (order, dispassion, rationality) and the
"Western religion" of romantic Ipve (chaos, passion,
irrationality). Clearly the thematic suggests an examination
of the nature of guilt: guilt in the eyes of the law and guilt
in moral sexual matters. Oates suggests that in a crime that
crosses illegality with passion (such as rape), the victim
loses innocence as the victimizer acquires guilt.
Unfortunately, Law has become the American
substitute for philosophy. The degraded technical language
of the law replaces true philosophical discussion in the

dizzy and

irrational, out of control.
itself
What can you say about a writer whose every gesture
is half flail, whose characters evince no motivation but
inflate suddenly like strange fish for unpredictable shows
of strength and then deflate and become frail, fragile nerve
centers? Alfred Kazin, in his literary chronicle The Bright
Book of Life, says that Oates writes as if she is in a trance.
He admires this quality. It is a bad state for fiction when a
writer is praised for semi-consciousness.

Spectrum Mutic Critic

Ain't Coryell mature? I mean, he looked so
neat 'n nice, and talked so clear and slow and
gave us information on all the members of his
band, so we'd have more understanding so we
could appreciate even more what was happening
not only on the stage that particular evening but
always for all time on the stage and off, when
nobody's around and it's just a group of men
trying to overcome all the pitfalls and make good
music, did you get all that from him when he
kept
raving
about Mike Mandel, the
keyboard-piano-moog-wiz who can't see and has
more control and ability than anybody I've every
seen on the instrument, tike he played a moog,
not just a piano that can make unique sounds,
and I still can't believe he knew where to hit the
right button all the time like it was second
nature, and to comprehend all the limitless
sounds and textures of the instrument and to
make it fit and enhance and carry the music, it
was perfect, and he's been with Larry since they
were thirteen in school in southeast Washington,
State of (check with Savino to see if I got that
right), and he composes too with stark simplicity
and to the point like a song called "Joy Ride"
that was beautiful and happy and made the set
becalise it was so different like a breath of fresh
air, and Larry wishes people would get hip to
him already and recognize him as a genius
because he is, he is.
Mouzon primitive
And he did the same with all the others too,
like Danny Trifert the bassist who was with
Buzzy Linhart and some others (damn I can't
remember any more), and Al Mouzon the
drummer who's so fuckin' strong and primitive,
loud and powerful like a Frazier hook and what
drive, coming from the original Weather Report,
then McCoy Turner, but this is where he belongs.

in a Larry Coryell rock band where he can hit
hard and mean and sort of kick everyone in the
pants to give them a boost, sort of a common
man’s substitute for spiritual inspiration, and
that's important because if there's one thing
about Coryell that sets him apart from the other
geniuses of our time, it's his commonness.
No godliness guru divinity bullshit, even
though it's not bullshit by any means, but he
chose his own direction, to be what he is and
nothing more. He's just a normal guy with
everyday headaches and his view set on the
ground, and he suffers from the same maladies
headwise as every other neurotic asshole on the
planet that doesn't know any better, and that's
what makes him so different because he doesn't
have flash, stars, or great sex appeal, like being
"too Jewish," though that doesn't really have
anything to do with it and I don't know if he's
Jewish anyway, religion plays no part in his life
as his belief is limited to self-discipline only,
which is the sole true religion to ever have
existed if you think about it.
Even on those terms he is not the most
religious man in the world, but as he has turned
thirty he has decided to get there, and the first
sing has been a change of attitude, as opposed to
former times not so long ago when he showed up
for gigs in no condition to play, now and
forevermore he is determined to make a fresh
start. His playing has improved to a point where
he's satisfied and proud of it, and now he's got
the band, only a month and a half old, and they
played a dynamite set of tight, not overlong,
fascinating tunes. Randy Brecker's playing has a
lot to do with the freshness of the group as
compared to previous Coryell ventures. Randy,
as Coryell announced for our benefit, was an
original member of Blood Sweat &amp; Tears when
A1 Kooper was everybody's favorite FM star,
playing a bop-tinged trumpet responsible for the
jazz tn-the groat jazz rock fusion. Nowadays he's
getting hip to 73 and tlie use of electrichy in

music, and has a pretty fancy hookup to his
horn, making it sound like something else a lot
better and more in the context of what's going

on in the band, so he blends and feels the total
sound, giving it the added depth vital to its
subsistence and he's not a bad player either, by
the way.
In the past he's played with Horace Silver,
and he even performed with Horace Anold at a
free concert two summers ago in a park in the
Bronx for voter registration (the year of the big
Dick), though the outcome of the election
should not reflect on his playing, he's really
good.
Coryell feedback
Of course, only Miles is playing an electric
trumpet, in fact, an electric anything besides
guitar and piano. In other words, he's the only
electric horn to ever have existed and in so doing,
alone embodies the future (Eddie Harris'
baritone is still just a sax with an added device).

Coryell, meanwhile, experimented with the
guitar and gained a reputation for being far out
with his feedback, etc. in the wake of Hendrix,
who he believes to be the greatest natural
musician he's ever known, but surprisingly he
used no feedback and only a minimum of effects
last Friday night. He played it straight, and after
having absorbed McLaughlin (bombarded would
be more like it), his down-to-earth method was
fascinating as he covered the entire range of the
guitar technically and emotionally, he did
everything and still came up with new ideas, like
he kept pushing back the limitations of the
instrument without breaking and going for

effect, but solid.
The music was a bundle of energy, especially
on a song called "Nien," which was casually
coincidentally
an exact replica of 'The
Noonward Race" with a circle at the end where
they all trade riffs like taking fours shorter and
shorter until bam! to the head and out.

Somehow they managed to keep their feet on the
ground, and the earth being as diverse as it is,
interest never waned.
The lone standout was a piece consisting of a
Hagstrom Swede guitar solo called "Gratitude,"
which was 10%' planned and 90% improvised, and
in which everything described before was
happening. Even more amazing was the fact that
the E-string was viciously out of tune since he
had just broken it a few minutes before and new
strings are always out of tune in the worst way,
so in the midst of the most complex runs
suddenly he would reach over and twist that
damn tuning peg and then be back at it with no
break in the continuity, and this happened so
many times I thought it was part of the song,
which gave way to a couple of dancin' tunes.
They have an advantage in having three excellent
writers in the band in Coryell, Mandel, and Al
Mouzon who wrote two at least, including
"Funky Waltz,” which obviously was a funky
waltz, and there were other songs that evoked an
Arabian atmosphere, and for a brief moment

was that Larry Coryell and his band The
Eleventh House began what will turn out to be
the most successful period in their lives because
they've only been a group for a month and a half
and already they've got it together.
Return to Forever
Chick Corea and Return To Forever, though,
is a different story. They are also into the best
time of their lives, but as a rock band they
haven't gotten it completely together yet. Basics,
like the all-important sound system, are at the
beginning stages, and Clark Gym is no place to
show up with inadequate foundations. The sound
was terrible. Nothing was clear, there was no
separation, just a big inaudible muddle. The
acoustics of the room (crater) are the world's
worst anyway, and with the general inefficiency
of KRC, who for some reason could not get the
monitors to work right, resulting in none of the
musicians being able to hear each other, things
were pretty difficult.
Coryell's sound, though far from perfect,
was still good enough, but Chick suffered, with
soundmen constantly running around trying to
fix something that wouldn't get right all night.

were laughing, and peasant listeners enjoyed it
immensely. He's absolutely free. As a songwriter
he rates also, with "After The Cosmic Rain" (as
with Chick, he's heavy into Scientology), which
produced a high in Bill Connors' solo, before he
got completely bummed out by the monitors.
Low in echo chamber
Connors has to be compared to McLaughlin
(an unfair comparison since by no means is he a
McLaughlin), as there is great similarity in tone
avove all, and the styles are similar. The main
difference is that he can bend a note and
McLaughlin, who is not American, can't (Clapton
is the only one who can), and his solo was
powerful and inspiring. And he's so young. And
Stan Clarke's only 22, these guys are a bunch of
genius kids under the guidance of Papa Corea,
genius himself on the piano, playing with crystal
clarity in a very proper mode, classic technique

with hands upright, wrists bent, rhythmically as
precise as a diamond cutter, and the tunes he
wrote for the band are all based on that
precision, especially "Hymn of The Seventh
Galaxy." So it was a pity that the sound was so
bad as to minimize the effect of sharp
syncopations, meant to come out as crisp attacks
but actually closer to a cow in an echo chamber,
and still it worked for most people because they
largely dug the whole thing.
I had a lot of trouble hearing the little things
Chick does when comping and a great
opportunity was missed when they did
"Sometime Ago," which features solos by each
member of the group, beginning with Chick, who
usually opens with a slow piano tapestry that
basically traces the history of the world in all its
colorful phases, but I guess he was a little
bothered by the poor set-up and didn't explore
too much in his very brief intro, then into a
rhythmic semi-head, down again for Bill Connors
on acoustic (Ovation) guitar, but he couldn't get
it together under the conditions and couldn't get
enough volume to balance the drums, so he
passed to Stanley who held the royal flush, doing
it all including "Jailhouse Rock" for a second
gospel bass?

up-tempo and swinging, rocking, and Chick
Corea was playing out-and-out rock music and
digging it, because every time he flicks on the
light electricity flows and it's there for the
taking, so everyone should learn from Miles who
ain't ashamed and Sonny Sharrock who has more
to lose but he ain't compromising his art either,
so get hip to the age.
Chick Corea's getting hip but has a ways to
go. He still hasn’t adapted to the context he's
creating, and as a result there are some extremely
bad moments, as if the plug is pulled for a short
time and all the pressure escapes, like there are
gaping holes sometimes as if they need another
voice or something, but all that will change in
time because the four of them have collective
and individual genius and are young, willing and
able as they say, and for every bad moment there
are twenty good ones, so they'll get there, as
they really did say, and you might want to be
there when they do. Their set last Friday wasn't
by any means bad, in fact it was quite good, and
it was encouraging especially in terms of
audience response, which Coryell took to be a
very good sign, and on that is based a large
amount of optimism about the band, the music,
and his life. Last Friday night in Clark Gym was
the beginning of what many people hope to be a
future of positive circumstance.

Our Weekly Reader

An Exaltation of Stars: Transcendental
Adventures in Science Fiction Compiled
and Edited by Tarry Carr (Simon and
Shuster, N.Y., 1973)
Religion
is science fiction. Any
disillusioned person will tell you that.
Science fiction just happens to be a good
catch-all word to express all that is
inhuman and therefore irrelevant to
mankind. It takes a little strength and the
memories of the great books of the utopias
to read a book on science fiction and
religion. But religion is science fiction in
that it attempts to utilize logical methods
to theorize about the future.
Both of them ask one primary question
Why?

More and more writers are beginning to
ask this question, giving up the pretense
that they know all, and their literature
finds a safe nest in the realm of religious
speculation.
Terry Carr is an editor eager to put his
name to any new trends. He asked many
writers to toss about the idea of "blending

science

fiction

with

transcendental

expedience." This use of a theme supplied
by an editor is a peculiar form of literature
that rightly finds its way to the science

fiction author. It is a process that
underlines the possibility that the writing
may not necessarily reflect the views of the
author.
Primarily designed for magazine format,
short science fiction may be limited to the
scope of a certain issue, so this seemingly

parasitic form of writing may enable some
semblance of coherence. Making a
red-faced editor happy may also give an

author a feeling of satisfaction, so that he'll
go off and write what he wanted to write
about in the first place before the editor
opened his mouth.
So much for the editor. The authors
represented in this book are Robert
Silverberg, Edgar Pangborn, and Roger
Zelanzy. Their stories are not especially
unique, nor are they better versions of old
ideas. Instead, they pick up a relatively
new idea, grind it up and swallow it so that
it seems no more unique than any other
idea, and is as quickly assimilated.
No profound cultural aspects shall be
stirred up, no new religious sects shall go
off to grok the world after reading the
three stories. Only a few thoughts shall
arise, and among those hopefully will be
questions.

Time is spanned from the present to a
future in which life has digressed after the
nuclear powers of men have made their
mark, and continue to, in the many mutant
births. The religions of man and the
religions of the dolphin are considered
respectively and both are viewed through
remarkably human frames. Given such a
wide theme upon which to write, and
hitting such creative minds, one would
have expected a more alien view.
Extra-terrestrial friars would seem just the
type of people upon which a science
fiction writer would love to elaborate.
But the stars do not appear to be

touched by exaltation. They do not even
appear to be noticed. Is man too uncertain
of his own position among the gods to
write about the stars? The authors are too
busy trying to pull logic out of human
Unbelievable
similarities
experience.
abound in the stories, including the saints
and songs chosen to be discussed.
Man is constantly searching for places to
drown himself, to immerse himself in life
and so, in Whitmanian style, become life. A
sense of something having gone wrong in
humanity pervades the entire book, and in
a story of something so familiar as the
canonization of a saint, there is the final
realization that the wrong person was
named.
In Silverberg's The Feast of St.
Dionysus, man does touch the Martian soil,
but it is man and the soil becomes man's
territory, an incorporated food. The
element of transcendental seems to be no
more than the feelings of guilt which
plague the only surviving member of a
NASA Martian landing team. Compare this
view
with V. Zelanzy's
KJWALL'KJE’K 'KOOYHA ILL 'KJE'K,
however, and one is ready to believe that
the Dionysus story was an outspoken
'

religious statement.
In this story, dolphins are said to possess
religion (and one may ponder this), but the
question as to the meaning of the title will
generally take over and lead the mind on a
very narrow track. Dolphin prayer proves
to be play, and their religion a continual
dreamsong, reminding one of the medieval
theory of the “music of the spheres."
Now we can speak about the Pangborn
story My Brother Leopold. To compare it

with the other two would create a mass of
charts and diagrams so interwoven at to
make it Worthless. Suffice it to say that
this is the story of the canonization,
written with a subtlety that the others
lacked, and written by an author who is
considered more of a fantasist than a
science fiction ist.
The little bit of fairy tale that does slip
out is welcomed, as are the parables of the
Bible among its harder preachings. John
Brunner, author of Stand on Zanzibar and
The Sheep Look Up, has expressed the
belief (and hope) that religion will become
an important factor in the future of man
and that it will become noticeable in
literature. Of the many writers who have
spoken on the subject of survival, his
theory is unique, for he professed religion
to be a possible solution to the three basic
crises of man's future: overpopulation,
pollution, and nuclear self-destruction.
While not supplying any outlines for
religion to follow to meet these demands,
he was aware of some power in religion
itself. A transcendental, personal power,
perhaps, but nonetheless existent.
The Pangborn story implies having dealt
with the last of the three crises, that of
war, and religion is a great force in the
post-war culture. Whether it had any sway
during the war is impossible to prove, but
the Brunner theory as to the trend of
literature does seem to hold true.
One's first reaction could be: "Why
religion in science fiction?" Where else
could speculation about the gods reach the
dolphin-reading public as equals?

�'Jerem

Cello ballet and love make a nice film
,

by Randi Schnur
Spectrum Film Critic

Everybody loves a lover, right? Few Hollywood producers have
ever doubted that homely little bit of philosophy. Though admittedly
not the most philosophical of people, they do know what sells, and
Elliott Kastner has just become the latest to hit the romantic jackpot.
Jeremy, billed as "a different kind of love story,'' is undoubtedly
attracting lines and lines of the same people who saw the original (?)
Love Story six times and still cried the sixth time Oliver watched Jenny
die. After all, it's not that different.
As a matter of fact the only clearly discernible variance involves
the adolescent frame of reference (already used, although less
believably, in Friends). Otherwise, Jeremy Jones is not nearly the
all-American culture hero Oliver Barrett represented; Susan Rollins is
much less tragic and, thankfully, less sarcastic than Jennifer Cavilleri;
but the basic boy- meet-girl-, boy-makes-love-to-girl, boy-loses-girl
theme, which certainly predates the invention of the moving picture by
several centuries, lives on intact.
*

With a tong in hit heart
Jeremy is 16 years old, a sophomore at Bronx Music and Art high
school, who loves race horses, basketball, and his cello. Music, at least
until he meets Susan, is his ruling passion
later on he tells her that
"music is the only time I feel like I'm me" and most of the film's
best scenes show him performing or rehearsing with his cello teacher.
His life and personality unfold in a series of short scenes.
We see him buying his daily racing form before school (he always
picks a winner but never bets; the store owner is convinced that he's
crazy), reading poetry to the dogs while walking through Central Park
each Saturday, and so forth.
A representative confrontation with his father, obviously meant to
speak volumes about parent-teenager relationships in the Age of
Aquarius, wins this year's award for Best Characterization of an Adult
in a Youth-Oriented Film.,
Dad walks into Jeremy's bedroom and berates him for doing
"You'll never succeed in anything if
homework with the radio on
you insist on doing two things at once," etc., etc. Jeremy replies that
he gets straight A's in practically everything, to which his father retorts
"That's beside the pointl" and stomps out of the room.
-

Chalk mark

Things go on like this until Jeremy, sent by a teacher to look for
chalk, sees the girl of his dreams practicing ballet positions in the
storeroom. Sickened by a love which must remain unrequited at least
until he learns her name, he manages to follow her all over the city
without getting up enough courage to speak to her, until his
less-inhibited friend Ralphie finally does it for him in the school
cafeteria.
Amazingly, she wants Jeremy to call her, and the ego boost of a
successful solo in a school concert makes him just reckless enough to

IONITE!

eventually do it. They turn out, naturally, to be perfect for each other.
He already loves her, and by finally gaining the ability to show himself,
instead of hopelessly trying to be the stud Ralphie expects him to be,
Jeremy blunders his way into Susan's heart. (There's a moral there
somewhere.)

Three weeks and four days after their first date, they make love
under the horse portraits on Jeremy's wall. It is their first and last time;
Susan returns home to hear that her father has been transferred back to
Detroit. Two days later, they part at the airport tearfully and
apparently permanently
a symbolic "death" which, for some
unexplained reason, is made to seem as final as Jenny Cavilleri's real
one and Jeremy is left to caress his cello once again.
-

Starry-eyed stars
Robby Benson and Glynnis O'Connor are disarmingly innocent,
frank and sweet in the leading roles, which is just about all that was
expected of them. They are quite attractive and appealing, but they
can't quite manage to transcend writer-director Arthur Barron's
conception of their characters as victims of the adult meanies who rule

the world.
The fault seems to be his, though, rather than either of theirs; films
with this anti-everybody-over-thirty bias tend to have a certain built-in
offensiveness, and to the actors' credit, neither of them seems
particularly well aware of this.
Of the other actors, only Leonardo Cimino, as Jeremy's cello
teacher, deserves mention. As virtually the only sympathetic adult of
any real importance (and thus the only one allowed to develop at all in
the film), he retains his composure admirably through platitudes like
"Music is harsh. Art is harsh," and emerges unscathed.

The
Rolling Stones

Symbol crash

Director Barron has other problems besides his prejudice His big
having Jeremy skip across the roofs
of a line of parked cars after having made love to Susan (literally on top
of the world, automotive and otherwise), only to almost be killed by
one after hearing of her impending move to Detroit the following
afternoon
is as blatant and unsubtle as most of the rest of the film.
Barron has his good moments too, though. A scene in which
Jeremy anxiously waits for Susan to leave her apartment in the
morning and then runs all the way around the block so that he can
appear to bump into her casualty was very well done (and brought back
all kinds of slightly embarassing memories).
The opening scene, in which photographer Paul Goldsmith focuses
on the street outside over the top of Jeremy's cello and then lets his
camera wander lazily around the room, resting finally on the face of
our awakening hero as if to sum up all the isolated impressions we have
just received, is also excellent.
Jeremy is a nice, quiet, little film
nothing special, not a
large-scale tearjerker, maybe just a good little tear or two. If you like
this sort of thing, it just might make you feel good, and for all its flaws,
that alone could make it worthwhile.

The Station was formed early in 1969 and like most
regional bands tread the hard road to the recording studio.
Their first release No BS was recorded back in 1971. The
boys did the punk and toured right after preening oyer the
initial critical responses. Finally, they signed with Big Tree
Records and had their first single release "Let Your Yeah
Be Yeah," a tune penned oddly enough by reggae-star
Jimmy Cliff. Right on up to this release of Yeah.

"Underground All-Stars" but not quite as teenage as the
Barbarians in the TAM show. It's all cross-generational
relative anyhow. Right?
They even manage to add a little zest to the oft used
"Lightning Bar Blues," turning it from the mucous-lined

the bar-room floor. Ciggy butts soaked in gin. Micky

Hard Nose The Highway Van Morrison (Warner Bros.)
"So come on follow me/l'm the pied piper /follow me

room or wait in the sitting room. Shit! I'm really pissed.
(Why?)
You know why?
Joe gets all the hate mail up
here, ya know, on the Dead and others. Howie has to keep
putting in Editor's Notes about him all the time, and it
really pisses me off. Here I am, a music critic for the
Rectum for over two years, and never getting one '77/
bomb your house" letter. A good music critic has to get a
good hate letter every so often. If he doesn’t, he's just not
being critical enough. I'm fuckin' jealous of Joe I really
am.
Hey, do you people see the expression on the old
man's face on the cover of Van Morrison's new album
Hard Nose The Highway ? Well, that peasant is in pain.
Ya see, he knows what's inside the album cover
P-A-l-N
and he doesn't like it one bit. I bet ya he’s saying to
himself, “How come they didn't use me for the Stones'
new Ip?"
I kinda think that Van Morrison really doesn't know
what's cornin' off on his new Ip. Catch this. One of the
songs on the album is called "The Great Deception." In it
he talks about the "plastic revolutionaries taking the
money and running," the drag scenes in all the Big Apples
in the country, how the “so-called hippies take the

Brownsville Station Yeah (Big Tree Records)
And still another band catches onto the Lou Reed
concept, we've already had Mitch Ryder and Detroit doin'

Well, I have just got to tell you. Take the sun from the
sky and if you fill the hole with toothpaste don't expect
anything but your teeth to shine. Well, I'll tell you again.
There's a space between words and notes left for you to
smile and be found. Look immediately at the next
paragraph.
This is SHOOT'S first album. They have neve, been
seen, heard, or plagerized outside of a London studio. I am
the only reviewer in North America writing about their
album. What I say goes. I'll tell you again. Ted Mack and
Bill Graham call me each week. They both want talent
reports. It can be the top or the bottom for SHOOT. What
I say goes.
I've already gotten in touch with ALBRIGHT-KNQX.
The guy who drew the album cover deserves it. Looks like
Napolean Lajoie in the off-season. With a moustache. And
a gun. Peter Max once drew a cartoon of me in a
Diefendorf bathroom. Now he decorates Kellogg corn
flakes. He learned.
Remember Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young? I got
tired of them. They broke up. I got tired of riots and war.
got tired of moon walks, hoola-hoops, and Robert
Kennedy. I got tired of feeling bad and I'm getting tired of

Lou's "Rock 'n Roll." They outshined Master Reed on the
stun-magic of ace-axeoid Steve Hunter. Now, Hunter's
completed the cycle and is working on Lou's up an
coming Berlin album, already being exclaimed as the Sgt.
Pepper of the Seventies. He's also going out on tour with
Louis; hmm, interesting possibilities, let the good times
roll and all that. Then, we had Mott’s version of "Sweet
Jane" which they did with lacey beauty and sublime quiet.

to repeat, quite methodically, a few plucks on the bass, a

�listened to me. They play rock music now and McCarty
tuned his piano to sound like Neil Young. I'm a little
worried. I heard a dishwasher that sounded like Neil
Young last week. This week Neil Young sounds different.
But they boys learned. Put some horns on the album
whenever the dishwasher got too loud. They listed
someone as playing pedal-steel and dobro. Sounds like a
couple of extinct birds to me. But they're foreigners so
they'll need that country music shading.
I wrote the lyrics on the album. The Coca-Cola
company payed mr $500,000. Why? You gotta listen
carefully. Once on each song the word Coca-Cola is said.
Softly. In two-part harmony. You get thirsty listening.
And then you buy our soda. I've been told Brezhnev put
up some of the 500 grand. It makes sense. Some of the

the boys on a Russian tour next fall. Leonid will love 'em.
They’ll be dressed in cowboy suits.
I amy slow down soon. It’s too hard to keep up with
the times. I had a percussion group. Made noise by
munching on granola. Forgot to supply them with
toothpaste and they lost their teeth. Now they've become
Eskimo women. I booked the Jackwon Five until three of
them were killed at the University. At least the school now
has their name and sales are booming down there.

But we all needed money in those days. I was once
rich. Cared about art and creativity then. Had a guitar
player. Sonny Sharrock. But he refused to make a 45. Now
he plays to bums in N.Y.G. parks. I like him. I liked Mary
Hopkins for a week. Tom Eagleton for three days. Merv
Griffin for five minutes. You'll always agree.
SHOOT makes me smile occasionally. I've created a
space for them. For now. By eliminating the competition.
For now. But when crosby's pills and stash for the young

like the Negro baseball teams of the past; stopped in for a
day, played their set, and went on, while the big names
travelled in planes. So he hooked on to the biggest name
he could find, Kate Taylor, and wrote his best songs in the
steam of his breath on the window. He wiped away the
frost for the last time, he told himself, and barely had time
to look out the window when Kate screamed WATCH
OUT!
Leland, the bass player, was sitting across the aisle.
He'd been with more shit bands than Suitcase Simpson, so
named 'cause he never had time to unpack his bags before
he was on the road again. This was flte start, Leland told
himself, thinking of the recording date the next day with
Kate, as he was flung from his sfeat as the bus began a
violent brake.

The lights from the car smashing into the front of the
bus blinded Russ like the first time he stood on a stage
eleven years old and he already knew he was going to be a
drummer and when he knew it he had stopped getting
better and settled for making a living and thought of dying
for the first time as his practice sticks tumbled thru the
crack in the twisted floor of the bus.
Craig was sleeping as usual, so usual that he could start
to trip over a curb and be asleep before he hit the ground.
With the group's equipment already shipped ahead to the
studio, he was awake for the short time it takes to be

The concept also gives Kenny Young license to throw
in all kinds of gimmicky musical nonsense, like Moog
frizzles and zorps and wind tunnel echo, because it's THE
FUTURE! (Oh, and I thought all that echo on his voice
was because it's too weak to stand alone.)
Insight time. Kenny Young wrote "Under the
Boardwalk. It's on the album, slipped in cleverly as a
"nostalgia packet." It starts out with the original Drifters'
version and in the middle of the song, there's a very messy
fade-out fade-in to a new treatment via Kenny Young.
They should have left it the way it was. Aha, you say, but
"Under the Boardwalk" is a classic. I agree. More insight.
Kenny Young also wrote "Arizona" (remember that Mark
Lindsay gem?). That's about the shape of the music on this
record. Catchy, catchy, catchy. He takes one or two
catchy phrases and builds his songs around them. Like
Amanda's love song to Teyo, the Indian, where the chorus
goes "Teyo-ho-ho-ho-ho" (eyech!)
There is one good song (other than "Under the
Boardwalk"). It's called "Light to Light." It's simpler than
the rest, maybe because they realized it could stand by
itself. Just a simple lyrical tune. And the words could
almost be applied to anyone growing up.
Throughout the record, there are some really good
snatches of music. However, this is mainly due to his
illustrious back-up bands. On "Solitary Sing Song," for
example, there's an instrumental opening with a great horn
part. But considering that the horn section is Jim Horn,
Bobby Keyes and Jim Price, how could it be otherwise? I
also want to give credit to Chris Gunning, who every now
and then came up with some realty original string
arrangements. Also Susan Traynor, who sings Amanda in
the song 'Teyo- Starlight Scorpio"
she's got a beautiful
voice and uses it well (too bad her voice is almost drowned
beneath the rest of the song's music). And, of course, Russ
Kunkel, Leland Sklar, Louis Shelton and the rest of the
back-up people give their usual above par performances.
But the material just isn't there, and no amount of talent
behind it can make up for that.
Oh yes. There's also a few paragraphs on the pink
sheet/poster with the lyrics (this is in addition to the little

Danny scrambled to the front of the bus. The driver
kept mumbling something about standing behind the white
line, which he had tried to tell Kate not to do, and she
paid for her inattention by having her skull cracked on the

was thinking of searching her clothes for money,
necromania, and how they wouldn't be recording
tomorrow. All in shock: the driver could do nothing
except keep tightening his seat belt, Leland kept counting
his fingers, Craig cried outside the bus and Russ beat his
hands in rhythm to the police sirens and ambulance doors
shut sharply to keep out the rain.

Last Stage For Silverworld, Kenny Young (Warner Bros.)

There is a very good reason for this little sheet.
Without it, the album would be utterly unintelligible. So
when they say this album brings new depths to the

it really worked, you wouldn't need any little-sheets. Did

�Philharmonic

Fantastic orchestra
season is expected
October 20th marks the opening of the 1973-74 season of the
Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra. Dazzling is the only word to describe
the program they have planned.
On opening night you will be able to hear Richard Strauss’ tone
poem Also Sprach Zarathrustra, part of which is currently known as
the theme from 2001: A Space Odessey. Also on the program is Ravel’s
La Valse
a grotesque waltz which goes out of control like a baby
carriage going down hill. Beethoven's Consecration of the House
Overture and Saint-Saens' Septet complete the lineup.
This season is organized into two sets of concerts. One set is the
Criterion Series which will feature performances of established works.
Alternating with the concerts of that series are those of the
Kaleidoscope Series. Daring new works, little known old works, and a
taste of the classics make up this set.
Each Kaleidoscope concert is preceeded by a one-half hour
recital-lecture-demonstration given by the conductor or guest soloist.
There are two performances of every concert; on Saturday night and
Sunday afternoon or Sunday afternoon and Tuesday evening.
Music Director Michael Tilson Thomas has introduced a trio of
Music-Image concerts this year. They are multi-media presentations in
the Kaleidoscope Series which will involve simultaneous aural and
visual effects. Featured are some interesting new works.
In recent times the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra (BPO) has
been building a fine reputation for performing new music. Lukas Fpss,
a proponent of contemporary music, was the director here several years
ago. Under Foss' baton the BPO recorded several new works including
his own composition Orpheus. Recently, Maestro Thomas signed a
recording contract with Columbia Records so there is now a possibility
of the BPO recording with him.

Combining the sweet innocence of

the social
well, let's not
go into all that verbal sen-sen. The
meat of the matter is that despite
the unkind, unwarranted cutting
comments of the press. Karen and

Karen once said that the only

something materialistic like that
who knows if she's done it or
not, but her attitude is certainly
healthy. So on Monday, October

Modem specialization
Thomas' interest in contemporary music is reflected in his
directorship of the Ojai Festival for the past few years. This festival
specializes in presenting new works. Modern works chosen for
performance by the Philharmonic this year include Trans by
Stockhausen, Berio's Recital, Orpheus by Foss, and Bedford's For 100
Kazoos with Orchestra and Audience. That last one should be a
showstopper and you need only show up to be a part of it.
Please don't get the idea that the BPO plays only new music. Their
wealth of fine players gives them a sound full enough to do justice to
the classics as well. Scheduled for Criterion concerts this season are
Brahms' Fourth Symphony and Second Piano Concerto, Beethoven's
Pastorale Symphony and J.S. Bach’s Brandenburg Concerto No. 3.
Andre Watts will perform Tchaikovsky's Piano Concerto No. 1 in
all-Tchaikovsky
prograrhln November. Next spring the Philharmonic
an
will perform under guest conductor Aaron Copland, one of America's
finest living composers. Information regarding specific dates is available
at the Norton Ticket Office or at the Philharmonic Office (885-5000).
This year, the Philharmonic is having financial problems (what
orchestra doesn't). In part, the Crisis facing BPO is due to the fact that
they are community oriented. During the summer, they played many
free concerts throughout Western New York.
Ticket prices have always been kept down; this year they range
from $3 to $7.50 for each concert. Students can purchase season
tickets (for sixteen concerts) for as little as $36. Individual tickets can
be obtained at the Norton Ticket Office or at Kleinhans Music Hall.
If you're looking for an exciting way to spend an afternoon or
evening you ought to take in a concert. Diversity is one of the biggest
assets of this season's programming. Whether you like Mahler or
Mozart, Prokofiev or Paganini, the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra has
something for you. Even if you don't know what you like, this season
you just can't go wrong. And you might get turned on to a whole new
world of sound. If you've been there before, you khow what I mean.

�The Pete Hamill Column

Workable athletic budget
To the Editor.

by Pete Hamill

The problem of funding a workable program for
Inter-Collegiate Athletics is one that has plagued the
students of this University, as well as Dr. Fritz and
his staff, ever since the State Legislature refused to
fund Inter-collegiate Athletics throughout the state.
With inflation running rampant and the costs for
food, lodging, travel and equipment increasing at a
rapid rate, the Student Association is feeling the
pinch each year to find the money to fund an
athletic program.
For the past three years, the Athletic
Department has asked for an increased allocation of
student funds; a response met with a decrease in the
amount of our allocation each year.
In the advent of our basketball team entering
into Division I, a step that should provide us with
prestige and a chance for athletes to prove
themselves in worthy competition, and the fact that
scheduling contracts are made two years in advance,
leaves the students of this University with a problem.
We must make a decision now on what type of
Inter-collegiate Athletic program we want at this
school and the funding and guidelines we are willing
to commit ourselves to support such a program. The
prospects for finding the necessary funds indeed
look grim; however, the future of the program is
nevertheless in our hands.

Israel ignored?
To the Editor

In the six years now I have been reading The
Spectrum, I have never been so appalled as I was at
Friday’s front page. On a day when hundreds of
people on both sides are dying in a war in the Middle
East, all 1 see on the cover of you t phoney “liberal”
paper is the Rolling Stones! Close to 1500 students
got together Tuesday night in the Fillmore Room
with nothing to draw them except two words:
emergency and Israel. They responded with their
hearts, with their souls and with over $2600 to buy
blood, to rebuild destroyed kibbutzim, and to settle
recently escaped Russian Jews. And not a word from
The Spectrum ! Today, as 1 write this, it is Monday,
and we have just gone over the $6000 mark in cash
in a tremendous outpouring on the part of the
students on this campus. You can continue to ignore
us, but we know: Ahm Yisrael Chai!

suffer everything that prisoners suffer in America,
perhaps more. Agnew, after all, did not have racism,
dope addiction, or despair to excuse his rotten acts.
He filthied an entire country. He helped mortally
wound the fabric of America. He helped ruin basic
democratic institutions, which depend for their very
existence on an act of faith between the people and
the leaders they have chosen.
For these crimes, Agnew should have lain
rotting in a place like the Tombs, while his wife and
kids waited with the others, outside in the rain. He
should have been called by a number, or had the
screws give his cell a midnight toss. He should have
heard the junkies screaming through the night. He
should have spent the years wondering where the
people he loved had gone, and what it was like to
walk down a city street, or run in the surf on a
beach. He should have done time like other felons.
But no: Agnew will play golf. He will keep the
house he furnished with criminal money. He will
write his memoirs. He will make speeches about the
conspiracy against him. He will protest his
innocence, and describe his common act of plea
bargaining as some ultimate act of patriotism.
And Nixon himself will remain free. Nixon
organized a private police force. He waged a secret
war in Cambodia in defiance of the Congress. He is
hiding tape recordings which are evidence in a
criminal proceeding. He had burglars, extortionists,
potential kidnapers on his payroll. Under his
leadership, the White House sank into the deepest
cesspool of corruption in this nation’s history And
now he will pick a successor to Agnew.

(c) 1973,New York Post

Go down to the Tombs and start ripping out the
bars. Go over to Atlantic Avenue and punch out the
glass bricks of the Brooklyn jail. Set the bulldozers
loose on Attica, crushing the walls, demolishing the
guard towers, reducing all of it to twisted steel and
powdered brick. Melt down all the machine guns on
the walls. Burn all the uniforms of the guards. Let all
the prisoners loose. There can be no prisons while
Spiro Agnew is free.
How can society send a kid from Fox St, to the
joint while Agnew is walking the streets? What judge
can sleep at night, knowing that he is sending young
men away to years of steel and bars, while Agnew
sleeps in silk sheets?
The big Washington commentators are all
talking about the “Agnew tragedy.” What about the
Attica tragedy? What about the tragedy that occurs
every day in the criminal courts of this town? What
about the tragedy of America? Waste no pity on
Agnew. He revealed himself in court. By copping a
plea on income tax evasion charges, he in effect
admitted that he took criminal money and didn’t
pay taxes on it. Just like Al Capone
And yet Elliot Richardson is talking about
Agnew as if he were a respectable citizen who made
a little mistake. He thinks that Agnews resignation,
along with the three-year probation and the $10,000
fine, are sufficient disgrace. He sees no need for
Agnew’s “confinement in a penal institution,” which
is the way those people talk about going to the slam.
But this is an outrage. Agnew has, in effect,
admitted that he is a criminal bum. He was the Vice
President of the United States a guy who marched
up and down this land shouting about “law and
order” And every month or so, the guys with the
envelopes would come to his office with cash. He
was on the take, knowing exactly what he was doing.
He was committing felony after felony and they’ve
let him walk.
Until he walked into court the other day and
copped his plea, it was possible to root for Agnew to
fight it out, to not let himself be used by Richard
Nixon as a diversion from Nixon’s own disgusting
stewardship. But once he entered that nolo
cohtendere plea, in effect admitting what he had
done, Agnew should have faced the full majesty of
justice. “If you can’t do the time, don’t do the
crime.”
And for the crimes Agnew was involved in, he
should have died in prison. He should have had to

If the Democrats had any courage, they would
make sure that Nixon cannot do that He cannot
pick the 1976 Republican candidate for President.
And he cannot pick a man of such demonstrated
incompetence that his own impeachment would be
impossible. The Congress should make a list of
people from which Nixon would be allowed to
choose one. And that man should be a Democrat.
The Republicans, with their performance in the past
five years, have for now lost any right to rule
America.

prisoners
should be transferred to mental
institutions. If Spiro Agnew is free, if Richard Nixon
is still treated as a man of honor, nobody should be
in jail anywhere.

Sudden

by Dave Geringer

For the past several years, attempts have been made by a minority
of students to wreck the sports program on campus. Last Monday, the
Student Association was presented with this year’s attempt, a proposal
typed on blue stationery that was apparently written without much
knowledge of the consequences of its approval.
This “blue paper,” which was submitted to the SA by Sub Board I
treasurer Jennifer Washburn, contains many proposals which would
stifle, if not ruin, the intercollegiate program.
One proposal embraced by the “blue paper” stated: “Under no
circumstances will the Athletic Department contract mandatory fee
money for goods or services unless a valid budget is in effect.”
Obviously, Ms. Washburn and the other co-sponsors of the “blue
paper” were ignorant of several facts. All varsity inter-collegiate events
are contracted at least one year, and in most cases, several years in
advance. Money must be contracted in advance if the inter-collegiate
sports program is to continue at this school. It is both impractical and
impossible to attempt to schedule games for an inter-collegiate season
two or three months before the games are to be played unless the Bulls
intend to open -their home basketball schedule against the Alcatraz
All-Stars.
The “blue paper” instructed the SA Executive Committee to take
“appropriate legal action” if contracts are signed in advance of a budget
approval. The only legal action to be taken would be against this
University, if such contracts were made and not honored. The SA
treasurer was instructed to curtail any program if it was not meeting its
income level. Thus, the Bulls might have to drop hockey at mid-season
if the attendance falls off. Lawsuits would then be the least of the
problems
Another point of the “blue paper” covered the allocation for food
budgets concerning road games. The allocation, mandated by the State
of New York as a maximum of $8.50 per day, was to be cut to $5 per
day. In addition, team members were supposed to pay for the meals
themselves, and then be reimbursed individually by the SA. Coaches,
trainers and managers were not to be reimbursed for their food
expenses. It is absurd to expect college students, in the process of
completing an education, to advance money necessary for food for any
extended road trip. It is equally absurd to exclude coaches, trainers and
managers from this reimbursement, as the “blue paper” proposed.
Perhaps one day the majority of students on his campus, who
unquestionably support inter-collegiate sports, will be adequately
represented in the Student Assembly to end these annual attempts to
ruin the athletic program. Until then, we can be assured that foolish
proposals such as this infamous “blue paper” will be made at least once
annually.

“To go to the tournament, we
have to be consistent,” remarked
Monkarsh. “Right now, I feel we
have as good a pitching staff as
anyone in the east.” Monkarsh
stressed the need to limit the
amount of walks allowed by the
Bulls: “We can’t start a game by
loading the' bases with walks. If
we do, a cheap hit, a couple of
errors and we’re out of the
ballgame. A lot of times errors
happen when there are a lot of
walks; the ball is hit to you and
you’re not ready. We can’t walk
we’ve got to throw
the ballpark
strikes consistently.”
-

Hitting below par

Despite the fact that the Bull
hitting was below the level of last
spring’s squad, Monkarsh was
optimistic when questioned about
his team’s run-scoring potential.
“We have the potential to be a
good hitting team,” assessed
Monkarsh. “I feel we have a
different type of hitting team
than we had last year. We won’t
be able to have the big innings
that we had. Well have to run
more, bunt, hit and run, and put
pressure on the other team to
make the plays. We have to get

men on base in order to put
pressure on the other team.”

Monkarsh

finished first and fifth respectively
in the Bull hitting parade. “I feel
that I have to say something
about the job that Jim Mary
(.531) and John Kidd (.378) did
for us,” said Monkarsh. “Jim
Mary gained confidence last year.
He had an achilles tendon injury
in high school, and it took him a
couple of years to come back.
John Kidd, 1 would say, is better
than Mark Stanko [the ex-Bull

professional contract with the
Cubs last spring] at a comparable
time in their careers. He has the
power to hit the long ball.” Kidd
led the Bulls in extra-base hits
with six.
Veterans Gary Cox and Rich
Magliazzo also were among the
Bull leaders. Cox hit .400, while
Magliazzo batted .327 despite a
zero-for-ten start.
A lack of infield depth might
prove fatal to Buffalo’s spring
chances. “I feel that our greatest
weakness is a lack of depth in the
infield,” reported Monkarsh. “If
Gary Montour, Jim Marzo, Jim
Lalayanis or Rich Magliazzo gets
hurt, we are in trouble. 1 really
feel that we can’t afford any
injuries here. If one or two of our
infielders get hurt, like two years
ago, we don’t win a ballgame
down south.” If the Bulls don’t
win a ballgame down south, they
probably won’t be going to the
NCAA Tournament in May,

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Campus lots: No parking anytime
,

by Don Levine
Staff Writer

Spectrum

The University’s parking situation is worse this year
than ever before.
While 28,000 parking permits were issued to faculty
and students, the campus lots can only accommodate
about 5000 cars at any given time. During the late morning
hours, parking spaces are so scarce that people often come
to campus much earlier than they normally would. One
disgruntled student claimed that he makes sure he’s on
campus by 9 am. to make sure he’ll be on time for his 10
o’clock class.
The Student Association (SA) has been fighting for
open parking, which would end the segregation of student
and faculty cars and make all parking spots available on a
first-come, first-served basis. The theory underlying this
proposal, explained Student Rights coordinator Oiff
Palefsky, is that “if students [or faculty] can’t find a spot
and one is available, it should be able to be used, regardless
of where the spot is.” Robert Hunt, director of
Environmental Health and Safety, indicated that “open
parking is good in theory,” but simply won’t work because
there are so many more students than faculty. ‘There are
many professors who don’t have to or can’t be on campus
so early,” explained Mr. Hunt, “and their parking spaces
would be filled.”

Faculty vs. students
Open parking was experimentally tried two years ago
but was scrapped as a failure. ‘The open parking
experiment of two years ago was discontinued not because
it didn’t work, but because the faculty complained that
they couldn’t get the prime spots that they were used to,”
explained Mr. Palefsky. Last month, a Traffic Control
advisory committee established to study the parking
problem rejected a new open parking proposal by a vote of
S-4. The four who supported open parking were students;
the five in the majority were non-students. This alignment
clearly demonstrates that faculty and student feelings on
this issue are diametrically opposed.
Afterthe open parking proposal was defeated, SA
secured a promise from President Robert Ketter to at least
enforce the present ruling, which requires that faculty park
only in faculty lots and students only in student lots.
Tickets are nbw being issued to drivers violating this ruling.

However, SA feels students are still being discriminated
against because faculty members are getting away with
illegally parking in student lots. “We have everything to
gain from strictness,” said Mr. Palefsky, “and as soon as
the Student Rights Committee gets going, members will go
out into the lots and call Security for enforcement.”
Faculty
Recently, some faculty began complaining about not
being allowed to park in student lots. Both the Music and
English departments were highly inconvenienced by the
segregative parking and, as a result, attempted to transform
Quarry Lot near the basketball courts from a student to a
faculty lot. In a very close vote, the proposed switch was
rejected 3-3-1 by the Traffic Committee with one graduate
student abstaining. Many students contended that 'the
faculty were only interested in alleviating their own
inconvenience without regard for student parking
problems.
Mr. Hunt, trying to alleviate the parking pressures of
dental patients and guests (which included faculty and
staff overflow), sent a September 25 to director of Campus
Security Pat Glennon which was not sent to the Traffic
Committee for discussion. The memo suggested that the
Main-Bailey (student) Lot be opened for this purpose. He
claimed that “space [there] is usually available after 10
a.m.” However, many frustrated students have complained
that the Main-Bailey Lot is packed all morning. Mr.
Palcfsky, also a member of the Traffic Control Conun't.
said that Mr. Hunt’s “suggestion to accommodate the
overflow is totally inequitable and would render the entire
[strict enforcement] policy unenforceable.” There was no
reciprocating lot suggested to remedy the student overflow
problem.
Mr. Hunt, concerned with the constant rivalry
between students and faculty, said we must “stop talking
about vested interests and talk about what's best for the
University.”
Alternatives
One suggested alternative to the parking crisis would
be to utilize Rotary Field. Rotary Field is presently being
used by the Bennett High School football team and for
other non-University functions. When Mr. Hunt was asked
if he would support a proposal to open Rotary Field for
auxiliary parking, he replied: “No comment.” When asked

if Rotary Field might remedy some of the campus parking
pressure, Mr. Hunt replied: “I suppose it would be
convenient for one or two students here or there.”
Another parking suggestion was to build a parking
ramp over existing parking lots. However this was declared
unfeasible as it would cost approximately S3,000 per
space.
“Privilege Parking” is another alternative currently
being studied. Privilege parking would give preference to
thos campus-bound cars with four or more people in them.
These cars would be assigned the most desirable parking
spaces, creating an incentive toward forming car pools and
hopefully alleviating some of the auto cramping.
Still another alternative would be for drivers to use
outlying parking facilities and theq to take a bus. Although
the popularity of this system is questionable, new parking
areas are presently being investigated These include
University-owned land at 2917 Main St., about one mile
from the campus, and the University Plaza parking lot.
Additional parking spaces are also available at Ridge Lea
and at the Amherst campus.
Permanent relief to the Main campus parking
problems is only expected when the Amherst campus is
completed and most students will be attending classes
there.

University Wide Tickets
Presently, $75,000 to $100,000 per year is collected
by the City of Buffalo for tickets issued here on campus. It
has been continually suggested that campus tickets be
issued in lieu of city tickets, as was done a couple of years
ago. This proposal was vetoed by Dr. Ketter because it was
felt that campus tickets would be hard to enforce.
Student enforcement of campus tickets could be
controlled by holding back the registration or transcripts
of students who failed to pay their fines. Faculty traffic
violations would either be deducted from their paychecks
or their paychecks would be withheld. An appeals board
would be set up to hear any complaints regarding campus
traffic violations.
Mr. Hunt felt such a system would not work because
“students would end up with a large bill” at the end of the
year which would be a hardship to pay. ‘The less the
University is involved in the enforcement system, the
better off it is,” he added.
University-wide tickets is being tried at the State
Universities at Albany and Stony Brook with some initial
difficulties. But, with the addition of Appeals Boards at
those schools, Mr. Palefsky said, “everything is running
smoothly.”

Resolution under study
for land sale monies

onin

Involved parties continue to
explore the resolution
reconfirming the Faculty-Student
Association’s (FSA) commitment
to use proceeds from the sale of
Amherst land for the benefit of
students.
The resolution states that “for
as long as Sub-Board I, Inc.
represents the students of
SUNY/Buffalo, the income (from
the sale of the Amherst land] will
be turned over to Sub-Board I,
for the benefit of the
Inc
students of SUNY/Buffalo.”
Initially, Sub-Board had
insisted that a binding contract be
signed which would guarantee the
establishment of a trust fund,
administered by Sub-Board, for
the,benefit of students. However,
FSA felt this unnecessary since
the above resolution had been
passed at the FSA meeting of
November 28, 1971, when it was
unanimously approved with one
abstention.

Student housing restric tions
to he looked at by high court
lifestyle, thus insuring that the community will be
structured socially on a homogeneous basis.”

by Ian DeWaal
Campus Editor

The constitutionality of zoning ordinances
restricting the numbers of unrelated individuals
allowed to live together will be decided by the U.S.
Supreme Court this spring. The ruling will have an
important effect on the Buffalo housing situation.
Monday morning, the high court agreed to hear
a case brought by three students from the State
University at Stony Brook and their landlord. The
students are requesting that a zoning ordinance of
the village of Belle Terre on Long Island restricting
the permissable occupancy of a single dwelling to no
more than two unrelated individuals be declared
unconstitutional.
The three students, two of whom have now
graduated initiated the suit in the summer of 1972
after they and three additional roommates were
served with a summons for violating the zoning law
which restricted the neighborhood to one family
dwellings occupied by “no more than two people
not related by blood, adoption or marriage.”

Personal decision
Justice Mansfield added while local communities
“are given wide latitude in achieving legitimate
zoning needs, they cannot under the mask of zoning
ordinances impose social preferences
upon their
fellow citizens.”
...

The decision in this case may have far reaching
effects on student housing in Buffalo where an
almost identical statute limits to two the number of
unrelated individual allowed to live together. As late
as March 1972, The Buffalo Common Council was
immersed in fierce debate concerning the proposed
repeal of the statute.
Action to repeal the ordinance was eventually
rebuffed and students had to rely on the virtual
non-enforcement of the statute. City officials chose
to avoid placing a large number of University
students out on the streets. Buffalo has had a
housing shortage for a number of years especially in
the University area.

Temporary setback
In September, 1972 a U.S. District Court ruled
Belle Terre, had a lawful interest in maintaining the
“marriage and blood related” character of the
neighborhood and could properly do so through
zoning. In that case, Justice John F. Dooling
described such zoning as “simply another of
countless statutes of bounty and protection with
and the federal government
which the states
alike aggressively surround the traditional family of
parents and their children, reaching from family
court laws, through laws of inheritance to tax laws.”
...

The 2nd Circuit of the UJS. Court of Appeals
overturned the lower. court decjsioji this past,
February. Justice Walter Mansfield, writing for the
2-1 majority noted that Justice Dooling had based
his verdict solely on the “interest of the local
community in the protection and maintenance of
the prevailing traditional family pattern.”
“In our view,” continued Justice Mansfield,
“such a goal fails to fall within the proper exercise of
The ordinance has the
state police power
prupose and effect of permitting existing inhabitants
to compel .all others who would take up residence in
the community to conform to its prevailing ideas of

Non-enforcement reassured
This non-enforcement of the law was reassured
during the 1972 Mayoral election by Democratic
candidate Frank Sedita who was seeking reelection
in the face of the new 18-year-old vote.

Monday evening Democratic candidate for
Councilman of the University District Bill Price
stated on a WBFO radio program his desire to see the
enactment of a realistic ordinance which would
answer both community and student needs.
*

Mr. Price expressed concern that landlords are
allowed to “run wild” in filling their
aparta&gt;aaU.-ln.stating his concern forthe prevention
of neighbourhood deterioration, Mr. Price
emphasized; “it isn’t the councilman’s job to decide
what moral values are important or should be
enforced. I am affirming the value of healthy
neighborhoods,” continued Mr. Price, explaining
that his concentration was on the physical
deterioration of homes being overtaxed by excessive
numbers of residents.

“Where you have to use the power of law to
enforce morality something is wrong with the
society,” concluded Mr. Price.

body], then the binding contract
could result in a very bad
situation,” Mr. Doty surmised.

No way of predicting
FSA secretary Tom Schillo
agreed it was conceivable that at
some future date Sub-Board might
not be the most representative
body of students. “I think that
the resolution as it stands is all
that students would want,” Mr.
Schillo said. “But there’s no way
of predicting for all time that
Sub-Board will be representative
of students,” he reiterated.
According to Mr. Schillo, the
resolution as passed would be
subject to review in 1977.
Assistant Vice-President for
Student Affairs Anthony
Lorenzetti also expressed doubt as
to whether Sub-Board I was
representative of students.
“Sub-Board really doesn’t have to
represent students,” Dr.
Lorenzetti maintained. “It
actually is a funnel for monies
money goes in and it disperses
them. When you represent
students you take sides,” he
added, but Sub-Board only
follows the instructions of the
student governments.
However, he said that “if it was
agreeable to the student
governments that Sub-Board
should disperse the funds,” then
Sub-Board could be considered
representative of students.
Dr. Lorenzetti regarded
Sub-Board as only one
organization that “should be in
the field” of those that are
considered most representative.
He suggested that a board of
trustees comprised of students
and administrators could also be
considered as representative, and
one of those “in the field.”
Sub-Board executive director
Steve Blumencrantz appeared
generally satisfied with the
resolution as adopted. He said a
committee was now being set up
to study the “vehicle” through
which the funds will be
administered. Vehicle, he said,
signifies who will administer the
funds and under what conditions
they will be administered.
-

‘Measure of protection’
One Sub-Board source said the
binding contract would have
provided a measure of protection
against FSA’s using the funds to
subsidize its own activities, ‘if
they’re not restricted from
keeping their grubby paws off, the
money will be gone,” the source
emphasized.
Responding to this allegation,
FSA treasurer Ed Doty
maintained that FSA’s using some
of the monies for its own
expenditures was certainly
possible but not likely.” He
continued: “It probably would be
legally necessary if the Bookstore
and Food Service incurred losses,
because we would have to use our
assets to offset these losses. To
that degree the Sub-Board people
are correct.”
The Sub-Board spokesman also
suggested that because the State
had refused to pay for FSA
offices on the Amherst campus,
the funds might be used toward
this end. However, Mr. Doty
labeled this charge “not true.”
Mr. Doty felt that Sub-Board
was representative of students,
but said the Sub-Board proposal
had been rejected because it
would have caused FSA a degree
of inflexibility. “If it was ever
determined at some future date
that Sub-Board was not
representative of students [if one
or more student governments
were to withdraw from that

�Javits speaks

Senator gives his views on
oil crisis and Arab blackmail
by Marc Jacobson
City Editor,.

•

Senator Jacob Javits of New York pledged
Monday to do his best to -hold down tuition
increases at both public and private colleges.
Discussing the energy crisis at what he called a
“town meeting” at the Executive Motor Inn, Mr.
Javits emphasized repeatedly that the United States
“cannot be blackmailed” into political concessions
by radical Arab states threatening a shortage of fuel.
Opposing any form of blackmail, New York’s senior
Senator urged that the oil-consuming regions of the
world (United States, Japan and Western Europe)
cooperate in joint efforts to insure sufficient heating
oil and gasoline for all consumers.
On Long Island, “long standing customers of
heating oil suppliers have already been turned down
on their request for heating oil,” the Senator said.

Noting the quantity of gasoline consumed in our
urban centers, Mr. Javits suggested that if the average
number of passengers per car were increased from
1.5 to two, and Detroit began producing cars with an
average of 20 miles per gallon, gasoline consumption
would be reduced by 60%. Instead, “Detroit
continues to build cats which get even less than 11
miles per gallon, and people continue to drive to
work alone instead of making a conscious effort to
form car pools or take mass transit where available.”
Mr. Javits proposed a “progressive purchase tax” on
automob Bes, based on gas consumption, to
encourage people to buy more economical cars.
Turning to the “tragic” crisis of the Middle East,
the Senator said the United States cannot “become
dependent on oil supplies from radical Arab states.
U.S. policy in the Middle East should not be
distorted and misdirected,” he added, “by the
goading and threats of radical Arab states.”
Senator Javits said there are three “critical”
points around which we, the United States, should
rally. First is the notion of “self-help,” that the
United States should develop to the fullest its own
energy resources. Second, the Arab states are “not a
monolithic group so long as the radicals are not
fomenting revolution in other states.” Thirdly, he
stressed the need for cooperation among the world’s
major oil users. Through cooperation, the Senator
emphasized, all available resources would be used for
mutual benefit, and any necessary sacrifices would
be shared by all nations concerned.
Question and answer period

Jacob Javits
because there are schools on Long Island that do not
have heating oil contracts for the coming winter.”
Oil priorities critical
The system of mandatory allocation of oil
resources recently established by the Nixon
Administration were sharply criticized by Mr. Javits.
He said that in order to be effective, the oil
allocation system “must include priorities, similar to
those created for the allocation of propane gas

previously established.”
The Senator’s remarks seemed to imply that

there will be homes that will not receive adequate
heating oil this winter because of this lack of
priorities. The priorities established for the propane
gas allocation were: first, home heating necessities
(propane is used predominantly in rural areas as the
major source of heat); second, food preservation and
harvesting; and third, hospitals and other public
service institutions.
Mr. Javits stressed the need for national
standards in many areas. Specifically, ne suggested
that the federal government enact building codes to
improve both heating and ventilation systems in all
buddings, with the resulting effect of reducing
heating costs and fuel consumption. He also urged
the investigation of alternate sources of energy, the
passage of the Alaska pipeline bill to bring additional
oil to the Northeast states, and for households to
turn down their thermostats by two degrees during
the day and four degrees at night.

The Senator declined to answer questions about
the upcoming Senatorial election in November 1974.
One reporter asked Mr. Javits if he felt reductions in
UJS. oil supply resulting from the Mideast war might
produce an increase in Anti-Israeli or Anti-Semitic
feeling. The Senator responded that there “should
not” be any increase in Anti-Semitism, but he could
not predict what the American public would do. He
did say that the people of this country “resent being
blackmailed” 6y anyone, in particular the Arab
states, and that the survival of Israel is a critical issue
in the Middle East. He said that Israel deserves to
survive.
In response to a statement by Senator J. William
Fulbright (D.Ark) that “Jews control the Congress,”
Mr. Javits said this was “definitely untrue.” Sen.
Fulbright feels this way because there is a pro-lsrael
sentiment in Congress, Senator Javits said. When the
chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee (Sen. Fulbright) introduces measures in
committee that arc not objective toward Israel, they
arc generally voted down by myself and 13 other
members of the committee, Mr. Javits added.

Will hold down tuition
Mr. Javits was also asked if students at the State
University of New York could depend on him to
hold down tuition increases in light of the
recommendation of the Committee on Economic
Development to double tuition costs at public
colleges.
“I will not give you a pat answer like ‘yes you
can depend on me,’ instead 1 will show you what I
have done and what I will do to insure that tuition
costs remain low,” said Mr. Javits. ‘The Higher
Education Act, for which 1 have been working
strongly, should be funded to its fullest extent; both
the grant sections to needy students and the
guaranteed loan sections. The section of the act that
has not yet been funded, which will match state
scholarships with federal funds, virtually doubling
the number of scholarships available to students,
should also be funded to its fullest extent. And you
have my word that I will use my influence to the
fullest extent to hold down tuition at the SUNY
schools in the near future.”
Other questions dealt with the transportation
bond issue, which Senator Javits said he supports. He
urged all Buffalonians to support the issue as well,
because the per capita aid that the bond issue will
yield is greatest in Buffalo, where nearly one-third of
the total $3.5 billion to be raised will be channelled.
Mr. Javits commented that Judge John Sirica had
been eminently fair in his rulings on the Watergate
tapes case, and was saddened deeply by the
resignation of former Vice-President Spiro Agnew.

Anti-arming

Committee is trying to
publicize their actions
Future
tactics of the
Committee Against Armed
Security were discussed at a
meeting on Monday night. After a
show of hands, the committee
announced it would hold a mass
rally on Thursday, October 27 in
front of Norton Hall. The
committee voted to pursue the
of getting
possibility
Assemblyman Arthur Eve to
address t
rally.
A committee member stated
that 70 volunteers had begun to
work against President Robert
Ketter’s plan to arm Campus
Security, but that much more
student participation was needed.
Dr. Ketter was heavily criticized
during the meeting, and many
students expressed a desire to
“humiliate” him by challenging
him to debate. After much
discussion, the debate suggestion
was tabled
‘Act now’
Some students were divided
over when to act against the
proposed arming, but the majority
seemed to agree with one student
who said: “We must act now
because the longer we wait, the
harder it will be to succeed. Public
activity is good and so are tables
and leaflets in Norton.” Another
stated: “Small things are better
than rally after rally. It’s better to
decentralize and have more things
like guerrila theater and nighttime
marches.”
The students also discussed the

of videotaping
possibility
activities to draw more attention
to their cause. A proposal to stall
cars around the entrances to the
was roundly
University
condemned as “counter-productive.” Among the overriding
concerns expressed by committee
members was the need for
publicity for their activities. They
also expressed the fear of
indiscretion on the part of
Campus Security in using
firearms.
Conspicuous by their absence
were the members of the
Revolutionary Communist Youth
(RCY), who were forcibly barred
for the meeting when attempting
to enter. The reason given by
members of the Committee was
that the RCY members had

“disrupted” previous meetings
and were interested solely in
“propagandizing” for their group.
An RCY spokesman described
their exclusion as a “sham” and
denied they had attempted to
disrupt previous meetings.
He continued. “We always
abide by the rules of the meetings.
This political exclusion is taking
place
merely because the
leadership of the committee
cannot defeat our politics. We
may picket the next meeting.”
The students then formed
committees to discuss the various
tactics they will use in the future
to combat the proposal to arm
Campus Security.

�Mid-East turmoil

Egyptians continue
Suez

bombardment

Israeli positions in the Suez
have been under heavy attack by
Egyptian armored and infantry
units since Sunday. First reports
indicate that the Egyptian
offensive is the largest of the war
and could be a vital turning point
in the struggle.
Both Israel and Egypt have
been claiming successes. The
Egyptian military claims to have
won back large tracts of land held
by the Israelis since the six-day
war of 1967. Israel, on the other
hand, is reporting that they have
been able to repel Arab attacks in
the Sinai and inflict heavy losses
on the Egyptians. Tel Aviv claims
that 220 enemy tanks have been
destroyed and 1000 soldiers killed
in the fighting. An Israeli
communique said: “We are
grinding them into the ground.”
First news of the Egyptian
attack on the Sinai came from
sources within Israel. An Arab
blackout on information limited
the number of reports coming
from Egypt. An official
communique issued by Cairo
listed Israeli losses at 150 tanks
and 24 planes.
Israel controls Golan Heights
On the Northern front, Israel
maintained control of the Golan
Heights and continued her push
towards Damascus. Syrian troops
have begun to dig in for a defense
of the city. Jordanian troops,
which were dispatched by King
Hussein late last week, have yet to
do major battle with the Israelis.
They have been stationed around
Damascus and are serving as a
second line of defense. Military
observers doubt Israel will
attempt to occupy Damascus, but
will instead try to obliterate the
Syrian army and then qoncentrate
on the Egyptian front.
Israel Defense Minister Moshe
Dayan did not seem to be overly
Israel Defense Minister Moshe
Dyan did not seem to be overly
that Israel would concentrate its
efforts on the Sinai front now
that the Syrians had been pushed
back.
The ranks of the Arab nations
were strengthened over the
weekend when an official
broadcast on Riyadh Radio
announced that Saudi Arabia had
entered the war. The Saudi
Arabian army consists of about
35,000 men, with about 3500 of
them stationed in Jordan.
.Israel released its first casualty
list over the yveekend. The report
covered the first eight days of the
war and listed the number of dead
at 656. Names of the deceased
were not released and probably
will not be until the hostilities
end. Among the'dead wefe Mfcj:
Gen. Avraham Mendler, the first
senior officer to die in the battle.
Mendler had won a number of
citations for his part in the 1967
war, in which he led the Israeli
advance across the Sinai and
cleared the Golan Heights of
Syrian invaders.

of State Kissinger met in
Washington on Monday to discuss
proposals for shipping arms and
aid to Israel. There have been
scattered reports throughout the
last week that limited aid was
already being given to Israel. Gen.
Alexander M. Haig, the President’s
chief of staff, refused to comment
on government reports that the
U5. had decided to replace some
of. the lost Israeli tanks and
planes, primarily F-4 Phantom

fighter-bombers.
Mr. Haig did say; “We’re going
to maintain the balance and
continue with on-going
shipments.” Any resupplying
decision may have resulted from
Saturday’s State Department
re-assessment of Soviet arms
shipments to Arab nations from
moderate to “fairly substantial.”
Soviet shipments in the last week
were estimated at 200,000 tons.
The White House withheld

In the midst of renewed fighting in the Mideast,
State University ot Buftalo students are rallying to

the feeling that “Israel must survive.”
Tomorrow, an estimated 800 board students
will not eat dinner in the dormitory cafetetias.
Instead, the money that Food Service would have
spent on their meals will be sent to Israel for medical

one dollar. The boycott is being sponsored by the

the Inter-Residence Council.
Next week, 25 to 30 students are planning to
depart for Israel to work in hospitals and on farms.
Having committed themselves to at least four

Agnew speech

Former VP denies wrongdoing
any experience in politics. He maintained that in most
cases, as in his, contractors were only too glad to initiate
any offers.

by Clem Colucci
Feature Editor

Former Vice-President Spiro T. Agnew, in a televised
address Monday evening, denied allegations that he had
received kickbacks from contractors and participated in
extortion schemes during his terms as Baltimore County
Executive and Governor of Maryland. His voice shaking
and his speech often faltering, the only Vice-President in
history ever to resign under duress said he had resigned in
the interests of his family, close friends and the American

people.
Mr. Agnew decided not to give a detailed refutation of
the evidence released by the Justice Department as part of
the agreement by which the former Vice-President resigned
and pleaded no contest to one change of income tax
evasion in exchange for leniency.
Reading from a prepared text that he reportedly
wrote himself, Mr. Agnew said the news media had
published leaks from “undisclosed sources” regarding the
investigation into charges against him, and the effect of
these leaks was “prejucicial to my civil rights.” He was also
highly critical of the prosecution’s handling j)f his case.
Mr. Agnew said the American people deserve a
Vice-President in whom they can place complete trust and
that “for the last two months they have not had such a
Vice-President.” He had discharged his legal and
Constitutional obligations by resigning and pleading no
contest to the one charge of tax evasion, which, Mr.
Agnew emphasized, he did to save the nation the trauma
of a protracted trial during a “crucial” time for American
domestic and foreign politics.

Question and answer

/

self-confessed
“What is it that makes my accusers
believable?” asked Mr.
bribebrokers and extortioners
Agnew in posing and answering questions about his case.
He asserted that he had not enriched himself at the
expense of the public trust, offering in evidence his net
worth of somewhat less than $200,000, modest for a man
in his position. Mr. Agnew said the case against him made
“no claims of unexplained personal enrichment.”
He asked rhetorically why he had not resigned and
subsequently fought the charges against him as a private
citizen. Mr. Agnew’s legal advisors warned him that a
resignation would create a presumption of guilt that would
make any defense impossible. What he has read since his
resignation he said, has convinced him that the advice was
correct. Mr. Agnew also said it was time to “turn away
from the personal troubles of Ted Agnew and toward the
great tasks of the nation,”
Despite earlier published reports that Mr. Agnew had
said he was forced out of office by President Nixon, Mr.
Agnew had nothing but jjraise for the President in his
speech. Referring to his meetings with Mr. Nixon, to
discuss the investigation, Mr. Agnew said the President
“said to me in private exactly what he has said in public”
that it was my decision to make. He branded as
“completely false” reports that their meetings had been
unfriendly.

Still accountable
But, said Mr. Agnew: “I am accountable to another
authority, that of the American people themselves.” Mr.
Agnew then proceeded to give his version of the events
that led to a Justice Department investigation of his
political activities in Maryland.
Mr. Agnew explained that in Maryland government,
building contracts were awarded without competitive
building because of the professional nature of the
activities. Contractors are always “anxious” to get
government contracts, and often offer campaign
contributions and other forms of renumeration to public
officials in order to increase their chances of landing
lucrative government work.
Mr. Agnew said this practice can “overlap in an
unethical and immoral manner,” but was taken for granted
until the rise of what he called a “post-Watergate political
morality” that was less inclined to wink at such activities.
The Justice Department’s case presented him as the
initiator and “gray eminence” of various illegal kickback
and extortion schemes, the former Vice-President said. Mr.
Agnew branded the charge as “laughable” to anyone with

New challenges
Mr. Agnew then discussed challenges the nation must
face now that he has removed himself from public life. He
said the choice of House Republican leader Gerald Ford as
his successor was a “wise nomination.” “He’ll make an
excellent Vice-President and he is eminently qualified to
assume the highest office” if it should prove necessary,
said Mr,. Agnew.
The former Vice-President expressed hope that his
personal ordeal would lead to reforms in the political
system. He hinted strongly at, but did not quite endorse, a
system of public campaign financing through which
candidates of limited means, like himself, would not be
vulnerable to the corrupting influence of large campaign
donations. Mr. Agnew urged that state and local
governments take action to plug loopholes in their own
campaign laws, and said he had done this to a limited
extent while he was Governor of Maryland,
He asked that prosecutors be subject to greater
control to prevent prejudicial leaks and indiscriminate use
of the power to grant immunity, which Mr. Agnew
described as an “open invitation to perjury” and a Form of
“legalized extortion” for ambitious prosecutors. This last

Good times ahead
Mr. Agnew ended his address on a more hopeful note
than he began it. “America has always thrived on
adversity,” he said, “so I can see nothing but good for this
country.” He cited positive accomplishments of the Nixon
Administration in foreign policy and domestic reform, and
said the system of checks and balances and constitutional
liberties was working well.
Invoking the upcoming bicentennial celebration in
1976, Mr. Agnew said the American people have “an
unusually fine group” of potential leaders in that year’s
election. He closed by recalling what James Garfield, then
a young army officer, said to a frightened group of people
upon hearing of the death of President Abraham Lincoln:
“Fellow citizens, God reigns and the government in
Washington still lives.” Mr. Agnew echoed those
sentiments and ended his public career.

�DITOR

Bumper to bumper
The parking situation on this campus has reached the
level of absurdity. Every day, thousands of drivers ride
endlessly around the campus in circles looking for parking
spots that don't exist. It is no longer a matter of
there
inconvenience, wasted time or annoying aggravation
is simply no place for people to park their cars.
Last year, one could always find a spot in the
Main-Bailey Lot even if it meant a long walk. This year, even
the enormous Main-Bailey Lot is packed solid with an endless
ocean of cars, stretched out bumper to bumper as far as the
eye can see. The reason for the crunch is simple: 28,000
parking permits were issued this year; there are 5000 parking
spaces on campus. As many as 16,000 cars are driven to this
campus, in a single day. And the lack of available space has
been exacerbated by extremely poor planning.
In the past, car owners had to fill out special forms to
receive parking stickers, one to a customer. This year,
parking stickers were sent to every student with his
registration form; and any driver who could produce an I.D.
card and auto registration form could get a sticker from SA
or Campus Security. No records were kept; people could go
back for seconds and thirds, and give them out to friends.
Additionally, instead of trying to fully utilize whatever space
is available, the segregation of student and faculty lots has
meant empty spots sometimes lie unused while frustrated
student or professor circles the campus ten more times.
Students and faculty have been battling each other for
preference, but an end to segregated lots would benefit both.
We urge a return to open parking, by which every spot on
campus would at least be fully utilized. In the past,
segregated lots have really meant open parking for faculty,
since they were rarely ticketed for parking in student lots,
but SA Student Rights coordinator Cliff Palefsky has been
pressuring Security to rectify this inequity. But crackihg
down on students and faculty for parking in each other's lots
totally ignores the real problem, which is a lack of space for
both.
Are there any solutions in this mess? Auxiliary parking
lots near campus are being explored; the most promising
possibility is in the back of the large University Plaza lot
across the street. Commuters who live near either Ridge Lea
or the Amherst Campus are being urged to park their cars
there and take the shuttle bus to Main St. But instead of
closing off Tower Lot so maintenance can store equipment
there, the Administration should be exploring ways of
opening up additional space on the campus. Promises that
“the Amherst Campus situation will be better" are no good
the problem is now. Albany will not allocate any more
money for parking lots; but there are several large grassy
areas that could be roped off, which would be like paradise
to desperate drivers.
Rotary Field, which is not in use most of the time, is
one possibility. Sure, roping off grassy areas is a stop-gap
measure at best, but unconventional steps are needed to
alleviate this crisis. Do we have to wait until frustration
climbs so high that people randomly abandon their cars all
over campus, or park in protest in Dr. Ketter's reserved
space? Open parking and auxiliary lots must be enacted
before the onset of winter, or we will all be walking around
cars abandoned in the snow all across campus.
We also urge a return to giving campus tickets, not city
of Buffalo tickets, for parking violations. This would have
two advantages; tickets could be reduced to $2 and $3 from
the present $5; and the over $100,000 in revenue, instead of
going to the city, could remain in the school (through an
income/reimbursable account) and used to hire attendants,
fix up lots, and build new facilities. With the addition of an
Appeals Board to hear complaints, such a system is now
working smoothly at the State Universities at Albany and
Binghamton.
The Traffic Committee overwhelmingly recommended
campus tickets to Dr. Ketter, but he refused, arguing it didn't
work the first time because it was unenforceable. But now,
not only can delinquent students be forced to pay by holding
back their registration or transcript, but a new Trustees
ruling permits deduction of unpaid tickets from faculty
paychecks, making campus tickets wholly and equally
enforceable. There is no reason
barring allegations of
that the money from parking tickets
community pressures
should not be channeled back into this school where it
belongs. We therefore urge Dr. Ketter to reconsider the
recommendation and restore campus parking tickets.

William S. Allen

Professor of History

25-Year War

1) Executive Privilege, Separation of Powers
and the Twenty-fifth Amendment: If, as
President Nixon and his lawyers maintain, a
President has the power to, at his own discretion,
withhold evidence of criminal activity and if a
President cannot be indicted without first being
impeached, why can’t House Speaker Carl Albert,
who is next in succession to the Presidency,
assassinate Mr. Nixon and Vice
President-designate Gerald Ford, move into the
Oval Office and refuse to release any evidence of
his part in the murder?
Using the President’s own logic, Mr. Albert
would be immune from indictment, could not be
forced to testify, and could order the Justice
Department to stop any investigation into the
assassination. Impeachment, of course, is
cumbersome and would divide the nation. It’s
almost foolproof and I commend the procedure
to any future Speaker of the House.
2) Token Serious Comment on a Major
Campus Issue Department: For some time now,
various Student Association officers have devoted
much time and energy to the issue of open

people.

This is natural because they are the only
people who see you and comment on your work.
We get used to the idea that nobody outside of
those 40 and our personal friends recognize us
and we accept the idea of getting praise and
criticism for a small group of people.
So if a columnist wants to keep in touch
with reality, he or she must get reactions from
different people. The primary instrument for this
purpose is the Nasty Letter.
Now come on, people, you can do better
than this. I’ve been filling this space every
Wednesday for a month now and not one of you
has bothered to send me any hate mail. It makes
a body feel unloved. Hate mail is the lifeblood of
any columnist, the nasty letter is the puberty rite
and the first threat is the literary equivalent of
losing your virginity. Without nasty letters, a
columnist gets very frustrated. Give me a break,
will you?

parking. Hoping to alleviate the gross
overcrowding in campus parking lots, these
students have lobbied for open parking, that is,
ending the practice of separate lots for students
and faculty. While I support this on the principle
that everyone should be screwed equally, this
emphasis on open parking as a solution gives the
illusion of productive action without substance.
The problem is not and never has been
segregated parking lots; the problem is pure and
simple overcrowding. Monday morning, for
example, I spent 40 minutes looking for a
parking space. I was perfectly willing to take the
risks of parking in a faculty lot, but in a
40-minute tour of the campus I found exactly
two parking spaces, both in the Presidential
parking lot by Goodyear Hall. In that same
period, I saw dozens of illegally parked cars.
In desperation I tried to park on Winspear
Ave., Comstock Ave., Highgate St. and Lisbon
Ave., which took me all the way to my house.
Not one parking space was available within a
five-minute walk to campus. Finally, I parked at
the Red Barn and trusted to luck that I would
not get a ticket.
While a decent respect for human equality

demands open parking, that is not the answer.
Open parking will solve nothing and can only
serve to give spurious enhancement to student
leaders’ reputations. Those who trumpet the
cause of open parking as any sort of solution are
guilty of ignorant or willful deception and a
phenomenal misdirection of effort.
3) News That Should Not be Lost to History
Department: In case you’re interested in the way
the Nixon White House works, here’s how UPI
reported that the President informed Gerald Ford
he had been nominated for the Vice Presidency.

Mr. Ford answers the telephone; “Hello?”
Nixon: “Hello, Gerry, this is the President. I
have some good news for you and 111 put A1 Haig

on to give it to you.”
4) Exposition on the Human Condition: The
scene is a dingy, smoke-filled cafe in Paris in the
1920’s. A burly, bearded man drinks disturbing
amounts of whiskey. At his table sits a short

As a result of the demonstration at Hayes Hall, I
was made aware of the tremendous parallels between
the Nixon Administration and the Ketter
Administration. A group of concerned students came
to discuss with President Ketter the proposal to arm
security. They were met with the threat thatif they
did not leave within 15 minutes, they would be
arrested and expelled from the University. Ron
SIbin, director of the Office of Student Affairs,
commented that he felt Ketter’s statement was “a
real possibility.”
His intervention facilitated the agreement made
to allow 12 people to meet with Dr. Ketter. When
the meeting was over and the entire group was
leaving Hayes, their photos were taken by Campus
Security. This is obviously intended for some sort of
file on campus demonstrators. Do we need that kind
of undercover espionage on this campus. How many
files do they have already? Why are they keeping a
file on demonstrators? Furthermore, when this
group of students met to discuss future actions, they
were kept under surveillance by two plainclothes
security guards. Did anyone ever aak why we need
plainclothes guards, and why are they following us?
If you think this sounds like some film about the
FBI or about the Philadelphia Police Dept., you’re
probably right. It is a horror film and you are about
to become the star. Please support the movement to
keep this campus free of armed espionage agents!

Curiosity freed
At the Buffalo Free School children are free to
explore their curiosities to the fullest. No one will be
threatened with remaining after school to wash the
blackboards or scrub the desks one hundred times.
In fact, in the Buffalo Free School, there are no
blackboards and there are no desks.
The Free School, located in the Black Rock
section of Buffalo, is an alternative to the existing
public school system. Founded in 1969 by a group
of professors from the State University of Buffalo, it
attempts to make a child’s education worthwhile and
constructive. Spread out on the two floors of the
Riverside Salem Church, the school tries to combat
the detrimental effects of public school life. The
Free School opposes the disciplinary methods,
rigidity and high level of competition in public
schools.
“public schools cannot even be described as a
regurgitation of facts, because many of the kids do
not relate to what they are learning and many may
not be interested in what they are learning,” said
Doreen Weckerlc, administrator for the Buffalo Free
School. "The child as an individual is not taken into
account,” she added.
Who needs adults?
The Buffalo Free School allows the child the
opportunity to explore what is relevant to him
without the instruction of an adult. Children do not
need adults in order to leant, said Ms. Weckerle. On
the contrary, they leant through their own
explorations
into life and through their
conversations with one another.
Three important aims of the Buffalo Free
School are summarized by Chairman Robert Floyd;
one, to create an atmosphere that recognizes

Rage eight. The Spectrum Wednesday, 17 October 1973
.

individual differences and stimulates individual
growth potential for each child; two, to encourage
mutual respect between child and child, and child
and adult; and three, to promote the development of
a sense of self, and to encourage an acceptance of
self.
Unlike the public school, the Free School steers
away from the sterile classroom. The two floors of
the school are divided into moderately-sized rooms,
bordered by cluttered shelves filled with various
types of paraphernalia. The 19 children present are
free to wander through the rooms at their own pace.
There are two teachers and several volunteers who
work with the children rather than instruct them.
Order from chaos
Although this lack of order may appear chaotic,
many experienced educators feel that this is a better
method to deal with education. They feel it allows
the child to develop his creativity and eagerness to
learn. Public schools have been criticized for
suppressing this development, because of their use of
condescending attitudes, rigidity and competitive
grading.
In order to make education a process of living,
the Buffalo Free School has connected the process
of thinking with that of feeling. "Learning can be
done with no limits to the imagination,” said Ms.
Weckerle. A walk down the street becomes a learning
experience for the children.
While being shown the different parts of a
flower and its functions, the children also learn
about its fragrance and the prick of its thorn. The
physical and social environments have been
incorporated into the child's learning process at the
Free School. Without an understanding of these
surroundings, all other learning may be rendered
meaningless.

�Through the observation of new students at the
Free School, the teaching staffbecomes increasingly
aware of the detrimentaleffects of the public school
system. Ms. Weckede said: "A new kid entering our
school is usually on a power-trip, but the children
usually work things out.” The children easily accept
a new child into their activities. “They just will not
put up with competitive natures,’' added Ms.
Weckerle.
Division into grades., is considered an obstacle to
the child’s learning. At the Free School, children
ranging in age from five to twelve work together, in
groups of their own choice or alone. Ms. Weckerle
explained that many times the older children work
constructively with the younger ones.
The traditional image of teacher is non-existent
here. Rather than having the teacher take the
dominant role in conversation, the child initiates
activity
through questions, statements and
discoveries. “We are on a more equal level with the
kids,” Ms. Weckerle said. “We become their friends
rather than disciplinarians.”

Responsibility fostered
Although discipline exists at the Free School, it
does not become a threatening imposition upon the
child. Discipline here fosters a child’s feeling of
responsibility. He is encouraged to respect his
community, his friends and himself.
Free Schools allow parents greater participation
in their child’s education. “The parents involved in
our school care how their children learn and what
they learn,” said Ms. Weckerle. The parents have the
option of hiring the teachers and requesting that
they work in specific areas with the children. The
parents may also visit the school and participate in
the activities.
Although there are many positive sides to the
Free School, it has its problems. One problem is
relating what the child teams in die school to what
the child experiences in the real world.
Another problem is funding, a dilemma
common to alternative schools. The Buffalo Free
School presently must operate on a sliding scale of
tuition payments which, no matter how the scale is
set, hurts the poorer families.
Finally, the Buffalo Free School is not well
accepted by the community. Much of this problem
arises from the community's ignorance of what a
free school is all about, the staff feels. Local
residents cannot conceive of a successful education
without textbooks and teachers. Ms. Weckerle
concluded: “It is absurd. You do not need a $20
textbook to team. Children are teaming all the
time.”

4. Since 1967, the Israeli government has by its
policy of occupation and annexation, clearly
indicated that it is not interested in seeking peace,
but rather territorial expansion.
5. Finally, the Israeli government has initiated a
policy of terror aimed at demoralizing civilian
populations. The continued atrocities against civilian
populations such as the bombing of refugee camps
in Lebanon and the downing of a Libyan passenger
aircraft, have already been condemned by
international bodies.
For twenty-five years, the Israeli government
has oppressed the Arab masses and retarded the
struggle for a unified Middle East. As a result, the
Arab people, after bringing their case before all
international bodies, were left with no choice but to
retake their land. The maintenance of the status quo
would only encourage the intransigence of the Meir
government.

We call upon the American people to support
our struggle against an intolerable status quo; against
the facile and inaccurate reporting of these events by

against the continued arrogant aggression of the

experimental brainwashing

What is the best way to run a city without
funds? The best way to isolate the employed,
unemployed, welfare recipients, and oppressed
minorities from one another, and terrorize them into
accepting depression conditions: starvation and slave
labor? “Community control” is the resounding
answer of the capitalist class, and its “dirty tricks”
machine, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), to
its pressing problem: how to politically fragment the
working class during periods of mass ferment.
Newark, New Jersey is such a city. Imamu
Baraka (former black nationalist poet, LeRoi Jones)
terrorizes the entire black ghetto under the guise of
“community control,” while his white racist cohort
Anthony Imperiale “controls” the white ghetto. It is
a twin fascist machine, each half feeding off the
vicious racism of the other. The whole operation is a
fraud. In public they denounce one another; in
private they plan over their “hot line” hookup their
next public “denouncement.”
In 1967, following the bloody Neward police
riots, Baraka sat in a Newark jail on charges of
possession of arms
a tramp with no connections.
John Rawlings Rees, for the CIA and Prudential Life
Insurance, (the major slumlord of Newark), visited
him there to make a deal. Baraka accepted a place on
the CIA bankroll, for $75,000 a year. In return, he
became the CIA’s mod-squad frontman. A perfect
puppet clad in dashiki to instill in the ghetto a sense
of guilt, to extract a declaration of repentance, to
make the ghetto believe that it had sinned, and to
turn repentance and guilt into a source of PRIDE for
the mutilated victim. Without that, no stability or
authority could again take root in Newark or in any
'other ghetto in the country. LeRoi Jones, willing to
provide this essential service, suddenly plunged into
political stardom. He was quite frank about his
future prospects. In reply to an interviewer’s
question, “Would you accept money if they offer it
to you now?” he said: “Sure I would. But the only
way they would give me money now would be to do
something they can use against black people.”
How does Baraka run Newark? It is no longer in
the hands of City Hall but in the iron grip of the
nine area boards coordinated by the poverty agency I
the United Community Corporation and supervised
by “Papa Doc” Baraka.
Baraka eliminated the Newark Teacher’s Union,

The only force able to stop Baraka and the CIA
is the National Caucus of Labor Committees. We
have underway in Newark and across the country an
expanding campaign to expose to his victims and the
world that Baraka is a fascist CIA front man; to
expose to the remains of the black nationalist
movement that “black nationalism” is a slave
mentality which teaches blacks to be proud of their
poverty and oppression. Ethnic nationalism of any
color or race is pushed by the CIA because it
fragments a population to fight each other instead of
fighting the government. Newark is the proof of that
fact.
The Revolutionary Youth Movement, organized
by the NCLC, is itself organizing Newark’s black and
Puerto Rican youth gangs, into a united front with
us to kick Baraka and his thugs out of Newark. New

On Friday, September 28, 1973, The Spectrum
published an article headlined, “Buffalo State offers
journalism courses.” I am glad that there is an
interest on this campus in journalism, but perhaps
the article overstates the significance of this interest.
This past summer the Department of Speech
Comrapnication offered a course entitled, “Editing
the Small Newspaper.” Four students signed up. 1

except that when a journalism course was offered,
the response was not overwhelming. Is this the fault

was 10 a.m., which isn’t a bad time for a course. The
place? Diefendorf Annex A is centrally located. Poor

by Louis Harris

Although he runs far ahead of Vice President

in 1976 trial heats for the White House,
Senator Edward M. Kennedy’s Presidential image is
flawed by a narrow 43 to 41 percent plurality who
say “I do not fully trust his integrity.” The essential
weakness of a potential Kennedy candidacy in 1976
can be found in the 43-to-36 percent plurality who
presently disagree with the statement that “he could
give the- country the kind of inspired leadership we
need.”
The Massachusetts Senator did not enhance his
cause by his visit to Alabama earlier this year to pay
tribute to Gov. George Wallace. By 41 to 29 percent,
most people agree with the statement that Kennedy
“was playing cynical politics” when he made his
Southern trip. Significantly, 30 percent of those
blacks interviewed report the appearance with
Wallace raised doubts in their minds about Kennedy.
Senator Kennedy does receive high marks, by SO
to 33 percent, as “one of the few people willing to
take courageous stands on basic issues facing the
country” and 66 percent credit him with “being a
good U.S. Senator.” But people balk at crossing the
crucial line in endorsing his candidacy for the White
House: by 44 to 39 percent, voters reject the
statement that “he has the personality and
leadership qualities a President should have.”
The key to Sen. Kennedy’s problem is not
directly traceable to Chappaquiddick. By 49 to 34
percent, most of the public deny the allegation that
“because of what happened at Chappaquiddick, he
diowed he does not deserve the Presidency." Thus,
no more than roughly one potential voter in three is
prepared to write off Kennedy on the basis of the
Chappaquiddick tragedy. Significantly, however,
there has been no change whatsoever over the past
two years in the public’s view of the event. It has not
grown in importance, but neither has it diminished
at all in public consciousness.

The charge that Sen. Kennedy “has gone as far
as he has because of his name,” consistently beleived
by 56 percent, is more than balanced by an equally
consistent 66 to 16 percent who credit him with
high marks on his performance in the Senate. The
American people clearly think he is an outstanding
United States Senator. But it is equally apparent that
a majority simply will not take the bigger step and
express confidence in Kennedy as a potential
Presidnet.
The over-all results on Senator Kennedy do not
reveal the whole story of the deep divisions which

Senator Kennedy’s strengths and weaknesses
among the electorate stand out in sharp contrast in
these figures. His support is centered in the big cities,
among the young, labor, blacks, and the least
educated. His deficits are most acute among the
rapidly growing affluent voters in the suburbs, the
most educated, and business and professional people.
In a campaign, these divisions would likely become

more acute than they

�A new flu
ATLANTA (UP1)
A new influenza virus against
which most persons have no natural immunity could cause
a flu outbreak in this country this winter reminiscent of
the Hong Kong flu epidemic of 1968-69.
Dr. Robert Rubin, an epidemiologist at the National
Center for Disease Control (NCDC), said the new flu virus,
known as thc-B-Hong Kong-5-72 strain, already has made
widespread attacks in Japan.
The strain, or ones similar to it, also have been
identified in Australia, England and Germany, although it
has not been found in this country as yet.
Rubin said it is too early to predict how extensive an
influenza season the United States will have this winter,
but with the new strain “the possibility exists that the

after the game. “We came out firing, but your goalie
[Daddario] made some fine saves.”

by Dave Hnath
Staff Writer

Spectrum

Buffalo’s soccer Bulls, facing
the Brockport Golden Eagles for the first time in
their short history, found out why the Eagles are
ranked eighth nationally on Saturday afternoon.
Before 3500 vociferous Brockport fans, the Bulls
went down to their third defeat in six games, as the
behind the shutout goaltending of
All-American goalie Jim May, blanked Buffalo 7-0.
“Goliath was ready for David,” said Bull coach
Sal Esposito. That certainly was the case as the
Eagles outshot Buffalo 51-13 for the game.
Brockport tallied early in the first half to take a 1-0
lead. However, except for a score on a penalty kick
midway through the half, the Eagles couldn’t dent
the armor of Bulls’ goalie Frank Daddario again.

Eagles roar
The Eagles, somewhat shocked at the slim
two-goal halftime lead, came out roaring in the
second half. They stormed for five goals against
Daddario and his successor, Carl Gifaldi, to ice the
victory. “I was surprised that we were only up 2-0 at
halftime,” remarked Brockport coach Bill Hughes

The Bulls travel to Buffalo StaK this afternoon
to face a rebuilding Bengal squad. The two teams
enter the game with identical 2-3-1 records, as the
Bengals are riding a two-game winning streak.

Residents hit by problems
The inhabitants of the Amherst campus have
been confronted by a variety of problems, ranging
from construction deficiences to a lack of dormitory
activities,

Dave Saleh, Student Association (SA) Executive
vice-president, is “concerned with the welfare of
students out there,” and pointed out some
“potentially dangerous situations.” The lighting at
the campus entrance, in stairways and on walkways
is inadequate, thus posing a safety problem, he said.
The footing on the walk routes is bad, due to a lack
of sidewalks, tylditionally, he noted that there is no
bus shelter to guard against inclement weather.

Mr. Saleh concluded that there was a “lack of
concern by the administration about what should be
done for the winter” as far as solving the various
problems facing Amherst residents.
John Telfer, vice-president for Facilities
Planning, realized the Amherst campus was
incomplete and posed some hazards, but noted that
“we are doing what we can.”
Lighting obstacles
According to various spokesmen, there are many
obstacles that must be overcome before the North
Campus can be properly lit. For the past two years,
the State legislature has failed to appropriate money
for a water plant that would improve lighting by
providing energy for the available transformers.
Additionally, because lighting standards as
stipulated in the state contract must be adhered to,
meeting all these standards has led to slowdowns and
delays.
Although the construction of a bus shelter has
been overlooked due to a money shortage, Mr. Saleh
was hopeful that the administration would try to
provide the funds for it before winter.
Many students in the Governors’ Complex have

also been dismayed at the lack of activities on the
Amherst Campus, according to Mr. Saleh. He
attributed this occurrence to the “disorganized”
operations of the Inter-Residence Council (IRC), and
said that the SA had stepped in to “lend a hand.”

Activities planned
SA has scheduled an Information Fair this week,
and a Beer Blast Friday night in Lehman Hall. The
Speakers Bureau plans to schedule Supreme Court
Justice William O. Douglas and other speakers at
Amherst. SA also hopes to sponsor tobogganing this
winter, and if the man-made lake freezes well, ice
skating will be permitted. The possibility of athletic
intramurals was also investigated, but there are no
facilities for outdoor games since the ground is
muddy and wet.

Rich Turk, newly-elected President of the
Clinton dormitory, said “it’s beyond the call of
duty” for the SA to organize activities, and “it’s up
to IRC to help us.” The recent dormitory elections
in Amherst were poorly publicized by IRC, he said,
with election notices posted the night before the
election. As a result, only 35% of the Governors’
residents voted, compared to 60% in the Main Street
dorms.

In September, IRC showed movies at Amherst
and provided buses to concerts, but Mr. Turk said
these were “token activities.” However, now that the
dormitory governments are set up and IRC has
allotted $800 per dorm, Mr. Turk hopes activities
will become more effectively organized. IRC is
planning to install pinball machines in the dorms and
provide buses to the Boulevard and Eastern Hills
shopping malls. An IRC-House Council office has
been set up in Dewey Hall with office hours from

2-7 p.m.

One of the reasons for the lack of offense
displayed by Buffalo was the ejection of forward
Jude Ndenge early in the game. Ndenge, who has had
a hand in eight of the Bulls’ ten goals to date, was
thrown out of “an illegal charge of the goalie.” The
call more appropriately should have been “nudging
an All-American goalie with a broken nose,” as the
situation warranted nothing more than a warning
and continuation of play. Buffalo forward Jim
Young remarked: “Poor officiating is one of the
things that hurt us most, especially when Jude was
thrown out.”

Eagle co-captain Tom Gentile praised the Bulls
defense. “You gave us a much better game than
Geneseo did, especially on defense,” said Gentile.
Brockport defeated Geneseo 8-0 (the Bulls host the
Knights on October 27). “1 was impressed by your
fullbacks, but I think your biggest problems are on
offense,” Gentile added.

Gross coun try Bulls
sweep four -way meet
by David I. Rubin
Spectrum Staff Writer
The cross country Bulls closed
the first half of the 1973
schedule by breaking a
season-long losing streak as they
swept a four way home meet
against
LeMoyne, St.
Bonaventure, and RIT. Buffalo
routed LeMoyne and RIT by
scores of 16-42 and 18-41 and
pulled out a 25-30 decision over

McDonough’s expectations.
Before the race, he commented,
“We’ve got our work cut out for
us. I think we can beat LeMoyne,
and if we can beat one other team
it’ll be a great day. It depends on
the kind of race (Bob) Cohen,

Bull runners took five of the

team captain Bruce Tuttle paced
the entire field with a time of

by noting: “I went out slower
today.”

return to McDonough's pre-season
strategy. McDonough has stressed
balance for the Bulls by trying to
get his runners to stay together
and help each other out. This
element was missing throughout
the year. However, in Saturday’s
meet three Buffalo runners stayed
together during the race and
finished in the top ten.
McDonough was happy and
optimistic after the race. When
asked if the win would change
anything, he remarked: “Well, at
least I won’t be so mean to my

wife now that we won.” He also
observed the race “was a real good
effort by the first five
as good
as can be expected.” He then
looked ahead to the last half of
the season and predicted- “If we,

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

receiving a three-year probation and a $10,000 fine.

Ford nominated as Vice-Pres.
President Nixon nominated 60-year old Gerald R.
Ford, the Republican leader in the House ofRepresentatives since 1965, to succeed Spiro Agnew as
Vice-President in a nationwide address Friday night.
Rising to tumultuous applause of government leaders
in the White House East Room, Mr. Ford, a Michigan
congressman for 25 years, said “I am extremely grateful
and I am terribly humble.” If he is confirmed by Congress,
Mr. Ford promised; “I will do my utmost to the best of
my ability to serve my country well and to perform those
with as much
duties that will be my new assignment
accomplishment as possible.”
Mr. Nixon’s selection of the House Republican
leader seemed to assure easy confirmation of his nominee
by Congress. The President asked Congress to act
expeditiously on his nomination of Mr. Ford, the first man
ever nominated to fill a vacancy created by the resignation
of an incumbent Vice-President. Mr. Ford is expected to

required by the 25th Amendment to the Constitution.

Suspense mounts
Mr. Nixon, who enjoyed building up the suspense
prior to his announcement, first spoke of the challenges
facing the nation and the need for strong leadership. He
then outlined his three criteria for a new Vice-President:
the man must be “qualified to be President,” must share
Mr. Nixon’s views “on the critical issues of foreign policy
and defense,” and be able to work with members of both
parties in Congress. When he said his nominee had served
in Congress for 25 years, the room broke into applause
with all eyes on Mr. Ford.
“Please don’t be premature,” Mr. Nixon quipped.
“There are several here who have served 25 years in the
House.” He then named Mr. Ford as his designee for the
Vice-Presidency. No mention was made of Spiro Agnew,

Mr. Nixon made only an oblique reference to the
scandals that have plagued his Administration; he said it is
vital that “we turn away from the obsessions of the past
and turn to the great challenges we face.” A reception for

Mr. Nixon was reported
about 7 a.m. following an overnight stay at Camp David,
Maryland. He met with the House Republican leader at 11
a.m. to discuss procedures for the confirmation of his
nominee by Congress, only telling Mr. Ford “he was one of
those under consideration.” It was not until 7:30 p.m. that
Mr. Ford received a call from the President’s chief of staff,
Alexander M. Haig Jr., with the message that he had been
chosen.
White House informants said Mr. Nixon had come to
depend on Mr. Ford, with whom he served in Congress in
the 1950’s, as his most reliable informant on House
opinion.

Did you know that at this
University you can major in
Urban'Studies, Animal Sciences,
Education,
Health
Science
Journalism or Dance?
These are just a few of the
proposals for majors mentioned in
the “Evaluation of the Special
Major Program” at the State
University of Buffalo that was
released this spring. The study was
compiled by William Fritton,
assistant to the Dean of the
Division of Undergraduate Studies
(DUS) and chairman of the
Special Major Committee of DUS.
A matriculated undergraduate
at this University has the option
of devising his own major “when
the student’s specific educational
or vocational objectives cannot be
fully attained by study within
existing departments, schools or
programs.”
,

Surprising response
By January 1973, 93 such
major degrees had been granted.
Questionnaires were sent to each
of the students who had
participated in the program, and
54.8% returned the completed
forms. The purposes of this survey
were: “to find out how such
students fared in the job market
and what types of jobs they were
now performing; fo find out how
many had been accepted into
graduate schools, what graduate
schools they were in, and what
programs they were following;
and to find out how the students
themselves personally evaluated
the Special Major program they
had completed.”
Mr. Frit ton indicated that he
“really had not known what to
expect in terms of findings” of his
survey. He was surprised and
pleased at the excellent rate of
response. 33 (or 64.7%) of the

respondents were working in jobs whether it had been a help, a

Non-majors limited in arts
by Eve Meyerson
Spectrum

Staff Writer

Undergraduates interested in taking courses as
non-majors in the Theater, Music or Art
Departments may find their opportunities limited.
The University’s “worst aspect is its limited
resources and its
of seeing each department as
alike in their need,” commented Gordon Rogoff,
chairman of the Theater Department.

This policy is extended as far as opening up

auditions for departmental productions to the entire

Buffalo community. The department’s policy
recognizes that “people at age 17, 18 and 29 don’t
know if they want theater,” explained Mr. Rogoff.
He observed that it is more difficult to judge a
person’s ability at an early stage, as is possible in
music or art. People often haven’t had the exposure
or the opportunity to participate in the theater
before entering this University.
Mr. Rogoff continued: “A history of production
work reveals more than SO to S3% of those acting in
our productions were non-majors. Casting is not
necessarily out of the list of majors.”
Admission to class is based on interviews and
the student’s interest. Majors are not necessarily
given priority over non-majors in classes arid the
department is also trying to involve students in areas
other than acting. The literature and history courses
are opened to the entire University, although Mr.
Rogoff suggested that anyone with an interest in the
theater should register for “Introduction to Theater”
(105). It is the only lecture course in the department
and is opened to 250 people. The remainder of the
department’s program is carried oh in the studio,
workshop or in seminars.
Constant striving
“We’re constantly striving to accommodate the
non-major,” said Robert Mols, director of
Undergraduate Studies for the Music Department.
“Any, in fact, every course is available to
anyone who is qualified is eligible,”
non-majors
he said. Dr. Mols added that students must obtain
the instructor’s permission. “Certain specialty
courses such as performance, and small classes such
as theory
simply by the nature of the classes do
have a priority structure. Music majors have the first
option,” said Dr. Mols.
For those students who have had any kind of
musical background, Dr. Mols pointed out that the
Music Department sponsors a number of student
ensembles such as a jazz ensemble, a chamber music
ensemble and a chorus open to the University
community. The only qualification is that the
student pass the auditions for admission to the
particular group. For the student with no
background at all, “Understanding Music" (US)
requires no pre-requisites. The course is designed to
teach the student' such fundamentals as reading
music.
However, Music professor Alan Sigel noted that
while approximately 600 non-majors were taking
music courses in 1968-70, roughly 100 are now. He
believes the Music Department has become too
professional-oriented at the expense of interested
non-majors.

Relevance questioned
Although the department has been growing
steadily since 1953, it is still unable to provide
especially instrumental instruction
instruction
to everyone who asks for it. “Beginning instruction
in performance at the college level has always been
questioned as to its relevancy in relating to college
instruction,” Dr. Mols commented.
The College B program set up in conjunction
with the Music Department has relieved some of the
“performance problem.” The program enables a
student with experience and a certain level of
accomplishment on an instrument to earn credit by
giving lessons to other interested students. Dr. Mols
went on to say: “I think the idea is excellent because
to a large extent it solves our problem and aids the
student as well."
A student can apply for instrumental lessons
through the department but must take and pass the
same audition required of any major. The audition is
“purely advisory.” The student may be accepted for
lessons or may be deferred until a later date when he
or she would be able to auditipn again.
-

Stringent policy
The Art Department has a .stringent policy
regarding non-majors. There are “400 to 500
portfolios submitted each year;” about 50 people are
accepted as majors into the department. ‘The
problem we have is that no professor can handle
more than 25 in a class,” an Art Department
spokeswoman explained. This leaves a lot of students
interested in art and photography unable to fully
participate in the department.
There are courses, however, such as oil painting,
sculpture, drawing and photography, opened
especially to the non-major. Interested students who
find it difficult to get into these courses because of
their popularity are encouraged to pursue similar
sections in Millard Fillmore College. A portfolio is
not required for admission to these night courses,
and thr Competition for available places is less keen
than in the day school.
In contrast, the Theater Department’s policy is:
within the limits of
“Non-majors are welcome
in any course for which they are
staff and space
qualified, and they have traditionally been a major
element in the department’s activities.”
—

-

Similar problems
Each department is faced with similar problems
of setting policy regarding majors and non-majors.
The problem has been handled differently among
various faculties with various budgets, although the
departments seem to share one principle. The
departments seem to favor maintaining high
standards over accommodating every student
interested in that department. In other words, given
the limited funds and resources available, the
departments have chosen “quality over quantity.”

�Conference claims service
to the poor still inadequate
“Legal services available to the poor increased in
the sixties, but it is not enough,” said one speaker at
a conference dealing with the delivery and
distribution of legal services in the US.
The legal services conference held last Thursday
and Friday at the State University of Buffalo Law
School attracted lawyers and scholars throughout
the country. According to Richard Schwartz, dean
of this University’s law school, the conference
sought to “develop the scholarly equipment” needed
to achieve practical results in the area of legal
services. By dealing with academic research as well as
practical results, Dr. Schwartz hoped the conference
would benefit all who attended.
The subject of legal services has long been
neglected but its importance is now being realized,
said Barbara Currau of the American Bar Foundation
(ABF). With the advent of the Office of Economic
Opportunity (OEO) and the great expansion of local
legal aid societies in the 1960’s, legal services to the
poor were greatly increased.
Middle income needs
However, the legal services available to those of
moderate income were in question, she said. In order
to understand this aspect of legal problems, the ABF
undertook a study to discover the complete legal
experience of moderate income people. This study
will not be completed for another 12 to 18 months,
reported Ms. Curran.
Quinton Johnstone of the Yale Law School,
however, was critical of the ABF study. He argued
the cost of the study ($425,000) was excessive for
research that may be motivated by self-interest. He
criticized the study as being no more than market
research analysis of the middle-class for the legal
profession.
Legal services to the poor were improved by
OEO, but, according to professor Harry Stumpf of
the University of New Mexico, it did not fulfill all of
its goals. However, he cited other positive and

unexpected effects of the program. OEO generated
the study of poverty law in law schools and made
others conscious of the nexus between law and social
change. In this way one could “get at the problems
of poverty through the legal dimension.” said Dr.
Stumpf.

�Israelis reinforce

Jordan entered the war Saturday, sending a
detachment of-its “most efficient” troops into Syria to
join the battle against Israeli forces advancing toward
Damascus in the second week of the new Middle East
conflict. Israel said its troops crushed two Iraqi brigades
also sent to the aid of Syria.
An Israeli armored spearhead was reported closing in
slowly on Damascus, after pausing in its advance to smash
a force of 13,000 to 15,000 Iraqi troops. The Syrian
capital was now within range of the 17Smm Israeli
howitzers as the Israeli spearhead inched ahead less than
20 miles from Damascus.
In the Israeli view, Syria’s massive invasion of the
Heights came dangerously close to succeeding. Hours after
the opening shot was fired, advanced elements of the
Syrian army penetrated to within sight of the Sea of
Galilee, inside Israel proper. Were it not for the stand the
Israelis made against 12-to-l odds, Syrian tanks could have
rolled down the Heights across the narrow strip between
the Sea of Galilee and the Mediterranean, and captured the
Northern Sector of Israel.

Military analysts in Tel Aviv said Israel presently
appears to be deploying most of its force against Syria,
with plan to turn its full attention to Egypt if Syria falls.
Israeli Defense Minister Moshe Dayan said Syrian forces
are “running away” and he predicted Damascus, the Syrian
capital, “will be in real danger.” The Israelis reportedly
ordered fresh troops into the offensive, widened to
encompass the entire 60-mile Golan Heights front.
The Israelis said their pilots shot down 29 Syrian
MIGs that challenged their slow but sure advance. It was
decidely the single biggest one-day Israeli “kill” of the
week-old war. An Israeli spokesman siad the first of two

Presiden Hafez Assad.
Syrian officials, however, denied Israeli claims of
advances toward Damascus and maintained the Syrians
were still besieging the Golan Heights town of Qneitra.
They said fierce tank and artillery battles were in progress
and reported they had shot down at least 35 Israeli
warplanes.
Additionally, the official Soviet Tass news agency

said a Soviet merchant ship was sunk by an Israeli attack
on the Syrian port of Tartus and warned that Israel would
face “grave consequences” if such incidents continued.
The Tass statement said the Israeli shelling of Tartus
caused the sinking of the ship, Ilya Medhnikov, which was
unloading equipment for a hydroelectric project. Syrian
government sources reported that although the vessel was
set fire, all crewmen escaped injury.
In Washington, Secretary of State Henry Kissinger
said the United States would take a “firm stand” against
any Soviet actions in the Mideast it feels are contrary to
tension-easing agreements between Washington and
Moscow. Kissinger told a news conference that the U.S.
was unhappy over Russian statements and actions, but so
far it had not reached a point where they would damage
U.S.-Soviet understanding. He added that the principal
U.S. objectives were to end the hostilities as quickly as
possible in a manner “which will promote a lasting

No cause for joy

AOP

1

As if there was some cause for joy in naming a replacement for the
man he hand-picked as Vice-President only to see him resign in
disgrace. President Nixon nominated House Republican leader Gerald
Ford in a feigned atmosphere of celebration.
While we believe Mr. Ford was an excellent choice, and one who
will have no trouble earning confirmation by Congress, the fact that he
was the first man ever nominated to replace an incumbent
Vice-President who resigned is hardly cause for rejoicing.
Meanwhile, the Justice Department released evidence against Mr.
Agnew which painted appalling scenes of men carrying envelopes of
cash into the office of the Vice-President of the United States. The
evidence detailed how Mr. Agnew extorted over $100,000 from
engineering firms in Maryland in return for state contracts, and how the
cash payments continued trough last December.
It depicted the Vice-Presidency as imposing upon Mr. Agnew, not a
wealthy man, a lifestyle he couldn't afford. Unfortunately, a ghetto
dweller in Harlem caught stealing $50 from a grocery store could use
the same excuse. Many p6tty thiefs are sent to jail for years because
they stole money to eat. Mr. Agnew, who espoused the virtues of law
and order and inveighed against permissiveness, has actually been on
the take for years; but his privileged position enabled him to cop a plea
and avoid imprisonment.
As if to explain why the President conspicuously avoided
mentioning Mr. Agnew's resignation, it has been revealed that Mr.
Nixon himself initiated the plea bargaining in which Mr. Agnew traded
his office for his freedom. This lends credence to our allegations that
the Justice Department, whose case against Mr. Agnew was so air-tight
that they could have easily obtained a conviction, was pressured into
the sordid deal by Mr. Nixon to spare himself political embarassment.
Meanwhile, a federal Appeals Court ordered Mr. Nixon to turn
over the Watergate tapes to a grand jury, after editing for relevance by
U.S. District Judge John Sirica and special prosecutor Archibald Cox.
Rejecting the President's claims of absolute executive privilege, the
Appeals Court decision will now send the case to the Supreme Court,
which has traditiinally chosen the middle ground when faced with
wide-ranging constitutional disputes. The High Court will likely order
Mr. Nixon to release the tapes through some compromise formula on
narrow legal grounds. The President's refusal would surely invite
impeachment by Congress.
While the tapes have been regarded as the missing key in a mystery
story, it must be remembered that 1) they may already have been
doctored, 2) they may contain nothing relevant, and 3) a President who
knew his Oval Office was wired would not be so foolish as to make
statements implying his own guilt during taped conversations. Whatever
clarification the tapes provide of conflicting Watergate testimony is
relatively insignificant compared to atrocities such as the secret
bombing of Cambodia. The more basic issue is not what the tapes
contain, but Mr. Nixon's refusal to release them under court order, thus
claiming he is above the law. Two courts have thus far rejected that
Presidential claimflf he refuses a similar ruling from the third, he will
either be impeached, or future Presidents and high officials will know
they can capriciously break the law and escape punishment.

Spiro Agnew’s
resignation, as it survived the
which

now in effect owned up to,
corruptions
but it has been a sleazy chapter in the history of
American public morals. You don’t hit a man when
he is down and now out. But if America is ever to
master its tawdry venalities, it will not be by bowing
our heads in public unction, as most of the
politicians are doing, and saying how saddening it is,
and what a fine fellow and friend Ted Agnew was.
In human terms it is sad, as every fall from high
place is sad. What makes it especially sad is that
Agnew seemed part of the American dream a boy
of immigrant stock, making his way up the greasy
pole of success without being part of the Insider’s
Club, until the Nixon lightning struck him in 1968.
But in civic terms, which affect the body politic, it is
not just saddening but exasperating and desolating.
It leaves so many unanswered whys; Why he did
it in the first place, why he continued to receive
payments (according to the Justice Department
summary) even while he was Vice President, why he
put on the public display of outraged virtue
(“damned lies”) when the charges broke, why he
went through the charade of attacking the men in
the Justice Department for doing their public duty,
why he braved it out and promised he wouldn’t
resign even if indicted.
The answer to most of these questions, one
gathers, is the moldy chestnuf of the so-called tough
that what counts is not what
political professional
you do but what you get away with. By this
reasoning it isn’t venality which is wrong, but getting
caught and clipped for it. You deny, you maneuver,
you shift from defensive to offensive, you appeal to
the public, you try to get Congress to bail you out
and when everything fails, you make the best
possible deal and resign.
It is anything but inspiring. The young people
whom Agnew lectured about morality and
and
patriotism must be pretty dazed today

To the Editor:
Although I do not know whether or not The
Spectrum quoted you correctly, in today’s article
about my resignation, I would like to stress the
following points.
1. I have never passed 'any rules about grade
changes. The procedure for grade changes was set
years ago before I took office. Furthermore, the
“strictness” of my office is adequately reflected by
the fact that between June 18, 1973 and September
18, 1973, we received a total of 384 grade change
requests out of which 7 were rejected.
2. The rules on the dates by which Pass/Fail
options must be set were set by the Faculty Senate,
not by my office.
Since I credit you, too, with open-mindedness
and honesty, I hope you will accept these
corrections in good spirit since your statements given

“Be your age,” 1 hear some of my readers say: “This
is how life is.” Again I make the distinctionbetween
private moral shortcuts and essential civic honesty
and openness. Without trust and decency neither the
public nor private sector can keep from falling apart,
but the public sector is on display and more
vulnerable. Morality must begin in the individual life,
but it won’t stand much chance there unless it is
upheld in its public tests. The Agnew case was such a
test, as Watergate has been.

in 1972 was, if anything, worse. The focus was on
getting someone with whom the South and the
conservativew could feel safe. In 1968, the Nixon
managers may have been too hurried to probe
Agnew’s Maryland record. But that was scarcely a
good reason in 1972, after four years.
Right now, the Democratic leaders in Congress
are worried because the name Mr. Nixon sends up to
them as Agnew’s successor may become a formidable
man to beat in 1976. This is good politics, but
narrow. The thing to remember is that a Vice
President is not only a potential presidential
candidate, but more immediately he is the man who
may succeed to the hot seat.
Don’t play party politics, but pick the man who
could best succeed you: That is my plea to President
Nixon. And my plea to Congress? Don’t reject a
good man simply because he might be hard to beat
in 1976. It is better to have as a potential President
someone hard to beat than someone whose hand will
falter at the helm in a future as stormy as the present

4) The reference in the final paragraph to
getting time cut off “our sentence” is the most
illogical statement in the entire column. No one
“sentenced” anyone to a “term” at this or any

The October 3 installment of “Prism” struck me
as fraught with both logical faults and tired dogma.
I would agree with the Carnegie Commission’s
assessment of the typical student’s experience in the
senior year of high school. However, I think Ms.
Cromer has made a quantum jump in saying “college
is high school revisited.”
I would disagree with the following;
teacher-as-the-fountain-of-knowledge
1) The
image is even more prevalent in the university
setting.
First of all, I do not think profs view
themselves this way; most are willing to concede
ignorance. Secondly, the teacher’s job (as 1 see it) is
to transmit the knowledge and methods of reaching
that knowledge he knows. If he appears as a
“fountain” it is probably more due to the student’s
ignorance than to the teacher’s omniscence.
2) Granted, grades are a form of reward. But
repeating the well-worn phrase “since when will an
A ...” offers nothing as a functional replacement.

3) “Interaction with people and emotions” are
not things to be taught in the academic framework
of the University. I don’t think academe should be
expected to perform this task; the student’s
emotional development is more logically a product

�Natural sciences

Revamping of admissions
approved byFaculty-Senate
A proposal designed to attract higher ability
science and mathematics students to the State
University at Buffalo has been approved by the
Faculty-Senate. Major revamping of the admissions
policies of the Faculty of Natural Science and
Mathematics has met with “great enthusiasm,” said
Provost George Nancollas.
According to the new guidelines, a prospective
student must indicate his scientific interest on the
regular admissions application. These applications
will be screened by faculty members, who then
contact the student and explain the program.
If the student expresses a continuing interest in
SUNYAB, he is invited to tour the University’s
facilities. In this manner, Dr. Nancollas hopes some
of these students might enroll at the State University
ofBuffalo instead of another institution.

Advance planning
“It will take a lot of manpower to initiate the
program,” Dr. Nancollas said, “and much time will
be spent in setting up and conducting the tours.”
Members of the faculty are already being recruited.
Questioned why the changes were made, Dr.
Nancollas stated: “I would like to see the highest
caliber students attending this University.”
The Faculty consists of seven science and
mathematic departments, including chemistry,
biology, geology, physics, statistics, computer
science and mathematics. Besides striving to bring
the science-oriented student in close proximity to
the professors, the faculty advises those students
that are in need of counseling. Dr. Nancollas
indicated. Additionally, several other programs are
presently in progress. Some of these programs deal
with seminars conducted by world famous scientists
while others are tours and lectures.

George Nancollas

�New program
universities have ad-hoc major
programs, and “there is no
program in the country exactly
like ours.”
On December 5, 1968, the
Faculty Senate passed a proposal
that would allow students to
design their own fields of
concentration if they so desired.
The Special Major Program was
officially approved by the Office
of the Provost, State University of
New York, on January 28, 1970,
and the first degrees were awarded
in June 1970.
Coming thing
Fritton
Mr.
continued:
“Recent evidence indicates that
the special major is the coming
thing in higher education. Our
program offers a quality degree,
an individualized degree, to
students who have a serious and
in mind.”
definite purpose
Although the job market cannot
be accurately predicted, he felt
students have designed majors
which are often “vocationallyoriented in the broadest sense of
the term.” The more specific a
major is, the more beneficial it is
for getting a good job.
DUS will continue to compile
data on graduates of the Special
Major Program. It is projected
that a survey of this kind will be
conducted once every two years.
A total of 63 students are
currently enrolled in the program.
The fields of inquiry cover a
broad range of topics from
Rehabilitation of the Deaf to
Photography and Mass Media.
However, not that many requests
for special majors are received by
DUS.
From January through June
1973, 70 proposals were received.

added, is no easy task, but “very
difficult and time-consuming for
the student.”
screening
procedures are as those for regular
departments.

One of the most vital criteria
used in evaluating a student’s
special major proposal is that “the
student must justify the proposal
academically. He must do this by
what
indicating
specifically
educational or vocational goals
the major, is designed to fulfill and
how this cannot be done through
a regular department or division
of the University.”
Procedures for submitting a
special major proposal is outlined
by the Special Major Program
Bulletin issued by DUS. “The
student must have a 2.5 average
overall, as well as a 2.5 average in
courses already taken in his
special major concentration at the
time he submits his proposal. The
student works out his proposal in
conjunction with two faculty
sponsors of at least assistant
professor rank and submits it
[through his academic advisor] to
the Special Major Committee. The
gives
then
its
committee
recommendation to the dean of
DUS, who makes the final
determination on the proposal
and so notifies the student.”
A student may not enter the
Special Major Program before the
end of his freshman year.
Students are advised to decide on
their Special Majors before the
end of their junior year, although,
cases, the committee may
in
consider proposals up until six
months before the date the degree
is expected.
“A basically strong and quite
Mr.
original program” was
Fritton’s description of the
Special
Major Program. His
foundation for this feeling comes
from statements from the special
majors themselves.
“Learning to cope with the
system is not enough," surmised
one special major, “but to learn t»

something
worthwhile can be a basis for a

echoed the opinion of many within the Department
when he said that he felt Mr. Agnew had been let off
die hook too easily.
Mr. Thompson said Mr. Agnew “is a crook, no
question about that at all. If that case had gone to trial
and if those witnesses had testified as they said they
would, a conviction would have resulted.” He added:
“I have never seen a stronger case of bribery or
extortion.”
George Beall, U.S. Attorney in Maryland, who
began the investigation against Mr. Agnew last August,
also felt that. the former Vice-President had been
treated too leniently.
All federal charges against Mr. Agnew have been
dropped. The possibility still exists that proceedings
could begin against Mr. Agnew for tax violations at the
state level. As of now, however, no such action has
been taken. It is unlikely that proceedings will ever get
under way since the statute of limitations in the case
will expire by the end of this month.
Mr. Agnew has remained quiet since last
Wednesday when he “categorically” denied the
bribery and extortion charges to newsmen He has not

vote

Bulls opt for Division One
in NCAA membership poll
by Dave Geringer
Sports Editor

In response to a recent membership poll of the
National Collegiate Athletic Association, the Bulls
have elected to be placed in the NCAA’s Division
One. The Bulls had been participating in the
University (major) Division of the NCAA since 1962.
Varsity football had been granted “major” status at
that time.
‘The coaches voted overwhelmingly to go to
Division One,” said athletic director Harry Fritz.
“Then the faculty committee on athletics met and
voted for Division 6ne. On the basis of the
sentiment expressed, I recommended to Dr. Ketter
that the University cast its lot with Division One.
“You had some small schools who had as much
power as big schools in the NCAA /’.explained Dr.
Fritz. “When the larger schools proposed legislation
that would be favorable to them, the small schools
voted it down. Similarly, the small schools weren’t
able to put in legislation to help themselves. Now
each group will be able to determine its own
bylaws.”
Hockey not affected
Under the terms of the legislation passed by the
NCAA, a school may not play above its division in

football and basketball. However, a school electing
Division Two or Three may decide to compete in
Division One in one sport other than football or
basketball. Hockey, fencing and indoor track will
not be affected by the legislation they will remain
in one open division.
Dr. Fritz felt that scheduling would have been a
problem had the Bulls elected Division Two or
Three. “If we had elected Division Two, we might
have been denied good scheduling, especially in
basketball,” assessed Dr. Fritz. “We probably
couldn’t schedule Brown, Colgate and Cornell, for
example, because Division One will probably require
its member schools to play a large percentage of
games within that division.”
Bull wrestling coach Ed Michael also speculated
about the effect Division Two status might have had
upon his program. “I think that there would be
advantages and disadvantages,” said Michael. “It
would be easier to place wrestlers in the top six
finishers in the college division tournament, but
tougher to get into the nations (Division One
University Division tournament). It also might hurt
our recruiting. I think that a university of this size,
by its very nature and desire to present a top-rate
program, would almost be committed to Division
One.”

to finish fall season
by Steve Lustig

Staff Writer

Finishing their season on a
winning note, the golf Bulls
defeated St. Bonaventure 386-418
at the Audubon Golf Course on
Thursday. The Bulls finished the
fall season with an 11-2 record.
However, this record does not

finishes in several tournaments.
Playing in a match that had

statistical purposes, the Bulls were
to
the
St.

Bonaventure team. The match had
been scheduled to fill a one-week
break
between
the
ECAC
Qualifying Tournament, held last
weekend at Syracuse, and the
ECAC Championships at Sutton,
Massachusetts played this past
weekend. The Bulls were to have
used this match as a warmup for
the championships had they
qualified in Syracuse.
Gallery paces Bulls
As was the case for most of the
season, Jim Gallery topped the
Bulls with a five-over-par 75.

Marty Fink, who shot a 76,
played his best golf of the season
in the last few matches. Fink
barely failed to qualify for the
individual championships. A 74
was needed to qualify. Fink,
Buffalo’s only graduating player
noted: “I missed a two-foot putt
and three putted the 16th at the
finals.” Gallery also commented
on his play at the qualifiers. “I
didn’t like the course and I didn’t
play well. However, the course
shouldn’t make any difference if
you’re shooting well,” Gallery
added.
Bulls Coach Bill Dando stated:
“We had a pretty good year even
though we didn’t do well in
tournament play.” The Bulls
placed ninth at the Tri-State
Tournament, seventh at the Brook
Lea Invitational and tied for
fourth at the ECAC Qualifying
Tournament.
The Bulls have scheduled
njatches for the short spring
season with Bowling Green,
Rochester and RIT. They will also
be playing in the Florida
Invitational during the Easter
vacation.

by Dave Geringer

The determination of the Bulls to remain in Division One in the
NCAA’s new structure was more than just a confirmation of the Bulls’
present status. It was a necessary step that had to be taken if a viable
inter-collegiate athletic program was to be maintained.
Should the Bulls have opted for Division Two or Three, scheduling
almost certainly would have presented a problem. Replacing Syracuse,
Cornell and Colgate on the basketball schedule with lesser-known,
inferior opponents would not have helped the Bulls’ chances for a
tournament selection in future years that might put Buffalo on the
basketball map.
A greater problem was the possibility that Buffalo would have
been able to “play up” to Division One in only one sport if Division
Two or Three was chosen. The baseball Bulls, perennial powers in New
York and always a contender for a berth in the NCAA District Two
tournament, would not have been able to return there. Buffalo has
been selected to the NCAA District Two tournament in two of the past
three seasons. Had the Bulls not elected to “play up” in baseball, they
would have found themselves relegated to the college division
tournament along with a possible loss of several opponents on their
schedule. The Bulls would lose one of the few inducements that enable
/them to grab the cream of the Western New York baseball crop each
year (excepting professional signees).
The wrestling Bulls, also a team without any financial aid, would
probably find themselves in a similar situation. Any wrestlers who
attend Buffalo can be assured of a topflight schedule and exposure in
the NCAA’s major tournament if they qualify. The excellent wrestlers
recruited during the last few seasons might choose different schools if
the Bulls’ status dropped to Division Two.
In addition, the Bulls have sent golfers and trackmen to individual
championships during the past few seasons. The Bulls’ Division One
status will insure that the Buffalo athletes who qualify for these
x,
individual championships will be able to compete.
A proposal almost passed at the NCAA Convention would have
added basketball as a sport in which a school may “play up.” This
would have undoubtedly been tailor-made for a “one-sport” school
such as Niagara, St. Bonavehture or Canisius. These universities could
have elected Division One in basketball and Division Three in other
sports. Such a proposal would not have helped the Bulls in the least.
The fact that Buffalo fields competitive teams in many sports is
one of the strengths of the Bulls athletic program. As wrestling Coach
Ed Michael said: “A university of this size, bjr its desire to present
top-rate programs, is almost committed to Division One.”

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Ebert leaves DUS position
“I never intended to be a career administrator,”
explained Dr. Ebert matter of factly.
Charles H.V. Ebert will resign as Dean of the
Division of Undergraduate Studies (DUS) effective
June 30, 1974.
Dr. Ebert stepped in as acting undergraduate
dean following the resignation of Gaude Welch in
September of 1970. Dr. Welch’s sudden departure
prompted a good deal of controversy at the time,

Dr. Welch said being an administrator was
analagous to “serving time.” Dr. Ebert’s description;
“It’s like shovelling sand with a teaspoon when you
need a shovel.” Most individuals who are familiar
with DUS agreed that a large amount of red tape and
bureaucracy is involved with anything they do.
According to Dr. Ebert, innovative ideas arc stifled
by bureaucracy. As an example, he cited the failure
to implement the faculty-wide major.
Major delays
Originally Dr. Ebert’s idea, the faculty-wide
major would allow a student to have a major field of
study under one of the University faculties, such as
Social Sciences, and docs not have to fall within a
specific discipline. The prospect of faculty-wide
majors has. been passed from one academic
committee to another for a year now. Dr. Ebert does
not expect it to be ready for implementation until
well after his resignation.
Bob Kole, Student Association Academic
Affairs coordinator, felt that at times Dr. Ebert has
been too strict with rules concerning grade changes
and late dates for pass-fail courses. However, Mr.
Kole admits that Dean Ebert faced enormous
problems. “Dean Ebert has made some valid
criticisms. He has not been a progressive force, but
he has been very fair and open.”
In his 20 years at the University, Dr.’Ebert has
been in administrative positions for 12- years and
spent eight as chairman of the Department of
Geography.

Sadness and pride
In a letter to Dr. Kettcr in eayly August, Dr.
Ebert said he reached his decision to retire “after
long and careful review of my own professional and
personal goals and priorities.’’ He continued; “I will
leave the deanship with a feeling of sadness equalled
only by the feeling of pride and challenge with
which I took the position in 1970. Throughout my
deanship, 1 have enjoyed an excellent relationship
with the present administration, with the majority of
the faculty, and, above all, with the student body.’’
Dr. Ebert denied that there was any pressure to
resign. “In fact,” he indicated, “they desired me to

mainly due to speculation that his resignation was
not entirely voluntary. Many people believed that
President Robert L. Ketter had actually forced him
to resign as part of an overall plan to replace those
administrators who advocated liberal academic
policies.
Thus, while Dr. Welch was partially responsible stay”
In a letter to Dr. Ebert, Dr. Ketter accepted his

considered to be markedly more conservative than resignation with “reluctance and deep regret. Efforts

The most interesting conclusion to all of this is
when a customer (he bought from us) brought in a
quote from one of our friendly area "transhipping"
discounters. (Transhipping means that one store buys
from another store in a different area. That's OK
but in the end the customer sometimes will get the
golden screw because the MANUFACTURER refuses
to warranty the product at time of failure because
the dealer the unit was bought from was not the authorized
dealer.) Anyways
back to the interesting conclusion,
we took a long look at this low, low quote from the
so-called discounter and found much to our surprise
that we generally beat this pries on similar priced
"performance" equipment. Compere and THEN make
your own decision. Thank you for reading.

asked that decisions concerning
how the money is spent be left up
to the students, since student fees
paid for most of the Amherst
property.
The
faculty and
administrative members of FSA
said the money should be spent
solely to benefit the students.
However, they hope to maintain
some control over expenditures.
One argument for not subjecting
the money to complete student
control was that while the bulk of
the $786,000 purchase price of
the land in 1964 came from the
student fees, the students who
paid the money are now alumni.

land suffers major set-back
Egyptian artillery arid infantry
units pushed across the Suez last
Saturday, while the Israeli state
commemorated the Jewish Day of
Atonement, Yom Kippur. Arab
attacks were initially successful
and the Israeli defenders were
forced to pull back from the
Line,

their original
defensive position. The line
consisted of heavily fortified
positions that had been erected
after the 1967 six-day war. Israeli
failure to hold the line has been
interpreted as a major set-back.
Arab and Israeli sources differ
on just how far the Egyptian
armored units have pushed into
the Sinai. The Arabs claim that
their forces have the Israelis on
the run, but the Israelis claim that
the arrival of reinforcements has
allowed them to check the Arab
advance. Heavy losses have been
reported on both sides. Unofficial
sources list Eygptian tank losses at
as many as thirty for the first five
days of fighting. The Pentagon has
estimated Egyptian air losses at
several hundred planes.
The battle for the Golan
Heights has been just as intense.
The elevated area commands the
frontier between Israel and Syria,
and is considered vital by both
sides. The Israeli army brought up
heavy reinforcements over the
weekend and has apparently
succeeded in driving back the
Syrian invaders. Qneitra, the only
major town in the area, has been
recaptured from the Syrians and is
now under the control of the
Israeli army.

The war continues to be fought
on two fronts: the Golan Heights
in the Northeast, and the Sinai
coast of the Suez Canal in the

south. Information is slow in
coming because press coverage of
the fighting has been severely
restricted. Neither side was willing
to allow on the spot coverage of
the battle because of the harm it
could do to morale of the fighting
forces. The major source of
information has been official

Town of Amherst and Urban Development
Corporation (UDC) officials continued to indicate
today that the storm raised by disclosures of the
proposed sale of Faculty-Student Association (FSA)
owned land to UDC had dissipated. Questions still
remain as to why such a furor arose in the first place.
The fact that FSA had wanted to divest itself of
its Amherst property had been known for at least
two years. One of the primary reasons for the
divorce of Sub-Board I from its parent FSA in 1971
was to create an independent student corporation
that would represent the student body and could
receive ownership of the land.
Soon after, FSA treasurer Edward Doty asked
for a legal memorandum from State University of
New York (SUNY) Counsel’s office in Albany. The
response explained why the land could not be
transferred to Sub-Board I outright. Reasons offered
included a statement that it was not clear that
student funds had been used exclusively for the
original purchase; that even if only student fee
money was used, it was money from students no
longer attending the school, and finally, a
not-for-profit corporation such as FSA could not
divest itself of a substantial part of its assets without

reasonable

Planned funeral?
It may be that business interests in the Buffalo
area were trying to kill the land deal. If FSA had
agreed to sell the land to a private concern, UDC
would have been forced to lay out an even higher
amount than the $ 1.67 million it has agreed to pay if

compensation.

Strategy altered
The strategy of FSA and Sub-Board then
changed. Both groups agreed that the land should be
sold and that the proceeds should be used for the
benefit of students. Though the last two years have
seen sporadic discussion of an acceptable definition
of that desire, no concrete agreement between the
organizations emerged on the meaning of “benefit of
students.”
FSA felt it should keep control of the assets
derived from the sale of the land. Sub-Board had
different plans. First, Sub-Board argued the entire
gain from the sale should be placed in the hands of
the student corporation. This position later evolved
to the establishment of an independent trust fund to
oversee the use of the earnings.
FSA took the position that the money should
not necessarily be deposited in a trust, but that the
earnings would be distributed to the organization
most representative of students for as long as the
representative.

continued to feel that this was the way the money
should be used.
Plans unsettled

•

Late last year, FSA began actively seeking bids
from interested purchasers. In August, UDC was

informed that its proposal was acceptable and that a
final contract proposal could be drafted. On
September 7, the FSA Board of Directors met in

it decided to buy the land from the new owner at a
later date. Needless to say, this intermediary would
have stood to make a fair profit for its efforts. A
direct FSA-UDC deal eliminates this possibility.
Now that correct information has reached the
parties involved, predictions of an early end for the
transaction have subsided and everyone has adapted
a wait-and-see attitude until UDC chief executive

had serious disagreements concerning the initial
Audubon project which resulted in the signing of a
contract between the two groups stating, among
other things, that taxes would continue to be
assessed on UDC property for six years and any
development outside the authorized areas would
need prior approval of the Amherst Town Board.
“We weren’t going to conclude anything without
consulting the Town Board,” added Mr. Mackin.
The situation was complicated by confusing side
issues which indicated at the time that SSOO.OOO of
FSA money was missing and that 29 acres of land
had been slyly “sold” without any notification since
1964, when FSA originally bought the land. It
turned out that the confusion over the price
recorded in FSA records at $786,000 for the original
purchase and the various lower figures which
appeared in local papers resulted from an inaccurate
compilation of tax stamps on the transfer deeds and
mortgages, from which the sale price was calculated.
It also appeared that the original purchase figure of
534 acres in the local press was conjured up in some
mysterious manner. FSA and Town records have
always shown that no more than 511 acres was ever
owned by FSA.

APPEARING AT THE

sale were still left unsettled.
When the story was leaked to the Buffalo media,
in response to The Spectrum ’j decision to print the
story last Friday, incomplete facts were pieced
together to present an innaccurate picture of the
current negotiation between FSA and UDC.
“We thought a binding contract had been
signed,” revealed AmherstDeputy Town Attorney
John Lane. “We were only aware of what was in the
paper.” At that time, the Town Board had decided
to ask Governor Rockefeller and state legislators to
intervene to revoke the sale. Actually, UDC had only
agreed to draw up a formal contract proposal.

officer and president Edward J. Logue comes to
Buffalo next week to explain the UDC position and
plans for the land. The Amherst Town Board will
make a final decision after that meeting, according
to Mr. Lane.
All parties involved, UDC, FSA and Amherst
now indicate that the situation wasn’t as bad as
originally thought and the deal will eventually be
okayed. The controversy that remains will be the
most inflammatory: what will really happen with the
proceeds of the sale and who will make that
decision?

Consultation forthcoming

agreement with Amherst,” stated UDC public

Cultural gap emphasized
Dr. Staub feels that doctors
and nurses are not the ones to
reach out to the community if a
cultural gap exists between
themselves and the community.
One example of this gap relates to
nutrition. In order for a staff
member to encourage healthy
nutritional practices, a knowledge
of the basic dietary habits of the
community is essential. A worker
from the community would be in
the best position to do such work.
In 1976, the pediatrics clinic

The Meyer clinic is presently
designed to allow for the most
efficient utilization of the space
available. Each room is equipped
to accommodate a baby or an
adolescent. All the equipment
used during checkups is in each
room so children are not left
unattended in the halls. Six
medical students, one resident
from the children’s hospital, and
several student nurses work with

doublecheck the student’s work.
Patients main concern
Nurses are granted much
leeway in dealing with their
patients. Dr. Staub maintained

that this policy allows the staff to
devote as much attention to the
patients as possible. For example,
nurses wouldn’t ordinarily have to
get a special prescription for
aspirin from the doctor if a child
required it. They also offer much
advice to parents over the phone,
such as instructions for bringing
down a fever.
The clinic is open from 8 a.m.
to 11 p.m. The late-night hours
accommodate working parents,
and for those who need medical
help after these hours, the
hospital emergency room is open
24 hours a day. Ambulance or
police transportation can be
arranged in emergencies.

which is affiliated with the

is to raise the level of community
care to that of Meyer.
The staff of Meyer’s Pediatric
Clinic is an example of the current
trend in medicine, as well as other
fields, attempting to deal with the
individual on a comprehensive
basis and to become an integral
part of community life. Dr. Staub
believes that so far the clinic has

the needs of its patients and with
further financial support, the

�•ITORIAL

Student fees,
students' money
The ambiguous actions of the Faculty-Student
Association (FSA) with regard to the sale of its 505 acres of
Amherst land should be causing students to ask some probing
questions.
The FSA is not very representative of either faculty or
students, since neither group has any real power in that
organization. Instead, it is virtually dominated by this
Univeristy's administration: five of the nine on the board of
directors are high-ranking administrators, and University
President Robert Ketter is also the FSA's president. While
three students sit on FSA, they seem powerless as the
Administration bends that body to its will.
Since most students care little about such details unless
the dealings affect them personally, the tendency is to say:
"Who cares?" But FSA is responsible for running the vending
services, the Bookstore and Food service, and these are
enterprises that do affect students directly. While FSA has
not been overtly antagonistic to students, it has traditionally
adopted a paternalistic attitude of we know what's best for
you.
The details surrounding the sale of the 505 acres of FSA
land to the state Urban Development Corporation have been
both confusing and politically tinged, but this could be
attributed to the business tactics and political pressures that
inevitably accompany a land deal of this size. Students could
tolerate these things with the knowledge that proceeds from
the $1.67 million sale would eventually be used for their
benefit. But now that assumption has come into question;
more specifically, exactly what is going to happen to the
money?
A little background is in order. In 1964 FSA was the
depository for student activity fees, and it was largely with
student monies that FSA purchased the Amherst land. The
primary reason that Sub-Board I was divprced from its parent
FSA in 1971 was so that an independent student corporation
could attain control of the land. But a 1971 memo from the
SUNY Counsel's office in Albany, requested by FSA
treasurer Ed Doty, said the land could not be transferred
because student monies had not been exclusively used for the
purchase, and that the fees were from students who no
longer attended the school.
Thus the land transfer was vetoed on narrow legal
grounds despite the fact that without student monies, FSA
could never have purchased the land. There was speculation
that the Albany memo was tailor-made for Administration
desires to retain control of the land. Sub-Board then argued
that when the land was sold, the proceeds should be turned
over to them; this was later modified into a request for an
independent trust fund to administer the money.
At the last FSA meeting, Sub-Board insisted on a binding
contract between itself and FSA that would guarantee the
establishment of an independent trust fund. FSA resisted;
Or. Ketter threatened to adjourn the meeting; FSA finally
passed a meaningless resolution of intent promising to spend
the money for the "benefit of students." FSA said the
money would be administered by the organization "most
representative" of students. They offered no criteria or
elaboration for determining such a group.
Mr. Doty assessed that students want a binding
agreement because "if this is not put into contract form, the
FSA can change its mind as to the administration of the
money in the future." He is exactly right. Why is FSA
adopting such a over-protective stance? How can they insist
on conceding the money to the organization "most
representative" of students and not elaborate any futher?
Sub-Board I, for all its problems, was created as the
organization representative of all students, and by virtue of
its constituency of all six student governments, it is that
organization. Why won't FSA agree to allow Sub-Board to
administer the trust fund?
The reasons are obvious. FSA enjoys the position of
holding onto the strings; it doesn't want to let go. FSA is
dominated by the Administration, which doesn't want to
surrender the $1.67 million to student control, even though
student fees made possible the land purchase and its
subsequent sale. Whether FSA is holding on because it
mistrusts students, is suspicious of Sub-Board, out of
misguided paternalism or a simple desire to keep its hands in
the cookie jar, is beside the point. The proceeds from the
land sale belong to students. We urge FSA to make a firm
commitment to use the money to establish a trust fund to be
placed under student control. Considering that the proceeds
were derived from student fees, this is the only fair decision.

'DID YOU KNOW THAT IN 1970-71 I PAID THI

Arming misconceptions
To the Editor.

In The Spectrum of September 28, 1973 and
October 5, 1973 and in the Reporter of October 4,
1973, there appears a misconception which should
not be allowed to continue to muddy the somewhat
troubled discussions of the issue of arming Campus
Security personnel which have taken place and are
likely to continue.
The misconception revolves around the
difference between the committee’s responsibility to
recommend and the President’s responsibility to
decide. In the public hearing of September 25, I
repeatedly attempted to make that distinction, and I
must take some responsibility for not having gotten
the message across. In particular, my initial
statement that the hearing was intended to discuss
the guidelines for arming rather than the question of
arming itself, that the recommendation to arm had
been made in a committee report a year ago, and
that the decision whether to arm was the President’s
to make and not the committee’s, resulted in an

assumption that an “irreversible" decision to arm
Security personnel (as stated in the Reporter ,
allegedly on the basis of an interview which I did not
give) had been taken. At least once in the public
hearing, I stated that whatever the status of a
possible decision, arming could not take place until
acceptable guidelines had been produced and the
President could change his mind at any time
circumstances warranted it. This comment was
missed by The Spectrum reporter at both the public
hearing and discussion in 290 Hayes Hall on October
3, where I repeated it in the presence of the
President and the students attending.
So long as it is understood that no one is legally
armed on the campus at this time, and no one will be

legally armed until the President orders it, the
discussion can continue on the points at issue
questions
diverting our
without extraneous
attention.

An open letter
The music room/browsing library area has
always been maintained as a place for people to relax
and enjoy themselves. The staff has always tried to
create an atmosphere of ease and friendliness in the
area. Saturday afternoon this attitude was taken
advantage of. The keys were stolen and that night
the music room was robbed. We are now missing the
main turntable, tape recorder, headphones and about
fifty records.
We feel that not only were material goods taken
but also the freedom to maintain the same quality

atmosphere. This rip off is causing us to take stricter
security measures. We are all sad/angry to have to
take these measures but they seem to be necessary.
We are still optimistic about people being able
to use and enjoy these areas in a comfortable
atmosphere. They are one of the few areas left at
this university where a person has access to several of
the good things in life without paying a price. It is
unfortunate for us all that this place will now also
have to feel the effect of the selfishness of a few.

The world has passed judgement on Israel many
times; the United Nations condemns her for her
militancy; the United States, known for “martial
restraint," also does. African countries break off
relations with her, she is referred to as an imperialist
power. And eighty million Arabs choose this country
of two million and a fraction of their geographical
area, this “hotbed of imperialism,” as a means of
attaining liberation and freedom, on the holiest day
of the Jewish year. What true ideals of liberation and
freedom are present when such manical genocide has
been attempted? Where are the condemnations
against those who have chosen to attack in the dark
a fasting people, as the Arabs have done? Or against
the same army for the killing of innocent farmers
and school children, using ceasefire agreements to
have combat not with soldiers but with civilians and
children?

£,

Any condemnation against the Arabs will be
tardy and overdue, if they are indeed voiced at all.
Any action the Security Council, possibly the sole
international body capable of intervention, might
take will affect little change now: the fact that it

chose not to convene until almost two days after the
fighting began speaks accurately of its efficiency.
The reports of U.N. observers seeing Egyptians, not
Israelis, crossing the ceasefire lines will probably not
they
have much bearing on the Council's action
will likely become lost in the diplomatic rhetoric
which is sure to follow.
Exactly what it is that makes the Arabs
confident that their military might has increased so
much since 1967 to the extent that their actions
would indicate is not clear. And what it is that
makes them feel that it is them, and not the Israelis,
who are fighting for a rightful foothold on this Earth
is equally hazy. What is dear, however, is the Arab
governments’ employing the same propaganda tactics
against the Israelis in their crazed effort to “drive
them into the sea” that they have used before; the
manipulation of the Arab masses into believing that
there is a chance for victory, that there is a
justification for their being taken from their homes
and families and being pushed info the desert and
told to fight while their governments play favors
with their oil resources. Freedom? Liberation? Of

“Pass/Fail

Grading by

Undergraduate

Colleges,”

states;

“Where an applicant for admission to law school
submits a transcript in which all, or virtually all, of
his grades are on a pass/fail basis and submits no
other indication of his level of achievement in
college, the admissions committee can make a little
specific use of his college work in predicting his law
school grades. This means that this prediction must
be based on the LSAT score, even though the
committee would much prefer not to place sole
reliance on the test scores in making this prediction.
Even when such a transcript is supplemented by a
narrative evaluation of the applicant by several of his
teachers and deans, the committee can make only
limited use of the college work in predicting
performance in law school.”
Thus, it appears that students have to be very
wary of the means they select for academic
evaluation. Furthermore, with many students
changing their minds concerning their career goals, a
student who would opt for a pass/fail or
pass-with-honors grading system in his freshman and
sophomore years, might later have regrets. This
would also apply to those students who would
choose a pass/fail option, receive their degrees, and
then decide that they wish to enter law school.
There is a growing trend for students to “lay-out” a
year or so after receiving their bachelor’s degree, and
then deciding to return to the University for
graduate study.

None of this is meant to be taken as support for
the present grading system. Rather, it is meant to
underscore what pitfalls may result if one departs
from traditional evaluation measures.

attitudes towards the main problem at that time a-

Jewish immigration. The rise of Hitler accentuated
the problem of Jewish immigration
there were
few countries in the world that wanted to increase
their “Jewish Problem,” so most countries,
especially the United States, turned back the
overwhelming proportion of the refugees from
Germany. As refugees flooded Palestine, the Arab
leaders saw this as a threat to their hegemony over
the Palestinian Arabs, and led by the Grand Mufti,
riots broke out in Palestine from 1936-1939; In
1939 the British in a white paper closed the door
-

of life.

In this case the real losers are the Palestinian
people, for the British made promises to the Jews
involving land that wasn’t theirs and the Arab
landlords sold land that rightfully belonged to the
Arab people. During the Second World War the
Jews actively fought on the side of the British
while the Arab leaders, seeing a chance to free
themselves from the British yoke, aided the
Germans. By the end of the war, the British were
in no position to defend the rest of their empire
and were forced by the United Nations to give up
their territory. The result was a geographical
mishmash which was exacerbated by the desire of
the new Arab leaders to destroy all vestiges of
Western rule, i.c., the Jews.
The fact that a government as corrupt and as

reactionary as the late King Farouk’s could oppose
the creation of a Jewish state on a miniscule plot
of land that did not belong to Egypt, shows that
the war was a tool to keep the suffering Arab
population in line by concentrating their hatred on
Israel and not on Farouk’s government. The
resulting war created the tragic plight of the
Palestine refugees
not welcome in their former
land and manipulated and mistreated in the
—

detention camps of their Arab “friends.” These
refugees have the best case against the Israeli state,
not the quasi-revolutionary or monarchist elites
that rule the Arab countries. The only true socialist
state is the state 6f Israel, and while American
psuedo-revolutionaries call for its destruction, they
are actually playing into the hands of the same old
ruling

class.

The tragedy of this drama is the fact that

recalcitrance breeds recalcitrance and mistrust only
perpetuates itself in the next generation as hate.
Territory seized in one war as a temporary
boundary has a way of becoming permanent
especially when it becomes a useful buffer against
paranoid fears that have some basis in reality. Both
the Arabs and the Jews are people who can least
afford a destructive and costly war. The energy
expended in killing could be used for building
the lives used for loving, not killing. There is no

Your editorial in the October 3 issue of The
Spectrum on grades and the system was most
thoughtful. However, it is well to underscore the
problems that students applying to graduate and
professional schools might face if and when they
choose to be evaluated on a pass/fail basis and
provide no other supporting evidence of their level
of academic achievement. The American Bar

to further Jewish immigration just as the holocaust
was about to descend on the Jews and other
“inferior races” in Europe.
The Jews that were able to get to Palestine
begah to convert what had formerly been desert, as
a result of absentee landlordism and poor agrarian
practices, into a productive and useful land. The
Arab landlords who sold these patches of waste to
the Jews saw that if the Jews’ example was
followed by their subservient peasants, a revolution
along class lines might occur. Therefore, it became
even more advantageous for the Arab ruling elite to
oppose the Jews in order to protect their own way

The recent outbreak of fighting that began on
the holiest of Jewish holy days, Yom Kippur,
underscores the fact that the Middle East has
turned into a chaotic and murky morass in which
tragedy and destruction are the only products.
Twenty-five years of war has eroded common
sense, elevated demagogues into positions of
power, raised emotions and fears, and has resulted
in the continuation of an elite Arab ruling class
perpetuating the long-time misery of the Arab
peasant. There is no right or wrong in this conflict
the initial reasons have been buried by continued
mistakes on both sides
and intensified by years
of propaganda and physical acts of terror.
As Arabs and Jews around the world pray for
victories for their respective sides, only a hermit
can stay away from the emotional and ideological
currents that pervade this conflict. To the Arabs
and some leftist groups, the Israelis represent an
aggressive land-hungry people, stealing land that
belongs to the Arab nations and refusing to
compromise on basic issues. On the other hand, the
creation of Israel is the culmination of a two
thousand-year old dream which has resulted in a
continuous struggle against the elements and
hostile neighbors. As the emotions and tempers
flare on this campus as a result of loyalties to both
sides, we must remember that both sides do have a
point and the constant wars will not solve anything
except bring death and destruction to nations
that have so much in common.
The problem of “right and wrong” lies not
with the 1948 war, but with the British conquest
of the Mideast in the First World War and with the
promises that she made to both the Jews and the
Arabs. The victory over the Turks in the Mideast
was aided by both Jewish and Arab fighters, and as
a result, the British were caught between two
opposing forces. After the war, the British reneged
on both the Balfour Declaration and the promises
made to the Arab leaders, and proceeded to divide
the Middle East along previously-agreed lines. As a
result, the French and British acquired League of
Nation mandates to rule the Mideast and left both
the Arabs and Jews holding the bag.
British rule was perpetuated by a policy of
“divide and conquer” by which the Arab and the
small Jewish population were kept at each other’s
throats. This resulted in constantly-shifting British

Imagine little Shirley Temple. Cute, right? You bet
damned cute. A perfect angel and America's darling. Now
imagine that often it's not that little girl we see on the silver
screen in all her illusory charm, but a stand-in. Further
conjecture that this pseudo-Shirley is not another little girl at
all, but a bleached-blonde midget with a horrible munchkin
voice and practically palsied hands. Think of being confined
with this terror in the seat of a vertigo-inducing ferris wheel.

"How was it?"
People usually ask that very question when confronted
by a pioneer who has seen a recently-opened play. How was
it? Did it shine, they want to know, or did it stink like an
outhouse? How was it? they will always ask.
Almost always. That is not the question folks are asking
about Other Voices, Other Rooms, a play adapted for the
stage by Anna Marie Barlow and directed by Melvin
Bernhardt now playing at the Studio Arena Theater (SAT).
People have stopped asking "How was it?" in favor of asking
"Was it good?"
"Was it good?"
the change in approach is subtle and
important. Somehow, people have gotten the idea that the
play is different from anything SAT has ever done.
Theatergoers have acquired a new kind of curiosity about a
play at SAT. Strangely, the public has dared to hope
in a
hesitant sceptical manner, of course
that something the
well, good. Why
playhouse has offered might possibly be
this change in attitude? Hmmm

Special features

Several factors have united to give a sense of novelty to
the enterprise:
It is a world premiere.
It is based on the first novel of celebrity-writer Truman
Capote.

Rumors allowed that Capote might come to Buffalo to
see the attempt.
The publicity for the play has been immense but,
somehow, tastefully subdued.
t
Alright, alright! Fine! But get on with it: Was it good?
Well, that is not really the most important question to ask
about the play. One thing is certain; it is different.
Now, to say it is different is not to imply that it is
particularly experimental. Some of the theater that is done
off-Broadway and in smaller groups around the country is
head-and-shoulders above this play in experimentation. But it
is an impossibly experimental play for SAT representing,
perhaps, a novel openness in the theater's booking policy.
Capote devotees
This tiny crack in the stolid wall of conservative,
money-making productions is only possible because the name
"Capote" has done much to assure financial security. If this
trend continues, soon SAT may become a forum where any
sort of theater is welcomed, so long as it is good. Pipedream?
Mebbe.
Other Voices, Other Rooms is a play about the twin
worlds of reality and illusion. It is about a young boy
growing up Jn the South who must confront his illusions and
deal with realities. A marvelous scene near the play's
conclusion outlines his problem. Shirley Temple is involved..

Carnal carnival
You are a young, innocent boy linked with the midget as
the ferris wheel spins out of control in the middle of a
frightening storm. Thunder rumbles your soul; the flash of
lightening steals your vision. Below, an infected, doomed dog
howls with pathetic persistance.
And now, if you will, imagine that the pseudo-Shirley
begins to sexually molest you while bemoaning the fact that
"little boys must grow tall," in her ridiculous, haunting
voice. Brrr! Quite a difficult and gutsy confrontation with
the sham of tinsel town, is it not? This very scene highlights
the play's second half. It is a lot like cutting oneself on the
splinters of shattered rose-colored glasses. By the way, that
also happens to Joel, the young boy who is the story's focal

point.

Cast as Joel is David Aaron. Unfortunately, Aaron has
little to recommend his performance except a very youthful
appearance. He is just too much with his dreamy, wide-eyed
visage and wistful drawl. Floating through the play, he begins
to look like a human Soft-Touch Greeting Card.
,

Thespian

John Harkins plays Randolph, a homosexual resident in
the dilapidated nightmare of a house where young Joel is
sent to live/ Hawkins has chosen to play the role as an
apparent, distorted parody of Capote himself. For all its
obviousness, it is restrained and fitting. A commanding actor,
Harkins on stage is the one we watch. When he mutters, "All
children are morbid, it's their saving grace," and then tells
Joel absurd stories that are impossible for us and confusing
for the boy, we do not even notice Joel's presence on stage.
Deserving mention is Lynne Thigpen's portrayal of Zoo,
the maid who befriends Joel. If anything, Thigpen's

Eerie and just plain creepy, the set by John Conklin
looks like a miniature version of Jungleland in the Disney
empire. With its green, lethargic, swampy atmosphere it is
surprisingly adaptable. The same set "plays" everything from
a ferris wheel (which works unusually well) to a horse-drawn
wagon (which doesn't work at all) to a run-down mansion, to
a hovel, to a side-show booth. Clearly, "a great deal of

Once again. Deep Throat is closed in Buffalo.
State Supreme Court Justice Norman A. Stiller ruled Tuesday that
the controversial and profitable sex film was obscene within the
meaning of the law and barred further showings.
Justice Stiller termed the film; "patently offensive, lewd,
perverted and utterly without redeeming social value" after
watching a special showing at Erie County Hall.
The court's order temporarily keeps Linda Lovelace off the
Allendale Theater's screens pending hearing of evidence in a
proceeding for a permanent injunction.
Attorney Michael J. Brown acting in the absence of theater
owner Benjamin Solomon's counsel Herald P. Fahringer, said he
will try to bring such a proceeding today of Monday and attempt
to show the film is not obscene.
Assistant District Attorney Peter J. Notaro, chief of the
appeals bureau, said: "Mr. Dillon (District Attorney Michael
Dillon) and I are happy with the decision."
Justice Stiller ruled the movie was obscene after upholding the
constitutionality of the state's obscenity statute earlier in the day.
'There is no question the movie has not the slightest literary,
political or scientific value," said Justice Stiller; 'The only reason
it was not filthier was because it was not longer."
The judge expects the prosecution to get a permanent
injunction.

'Deei Throat'

Audience gets sucked in

Okay. We've heard it all. I mean how Deep Throat's started porno
flicks on the road to respectability, to multi-million dollar productions
and big-name producers, and how it's the first porno effort with a plot,
with socially redeeming value, and all that jazz.
Well, bullshit. Although it has gotten more publicity than any
single event since the Creation (possibly more). Deep Throat is one
thing and one thing only: a sex movie. A good sex movie. It makes no
bones about it—come see Linda Lovelace and the 100% gulp. Sure, they
throw in a plot, and some good one-liners, and a musical score, but
such niceties are superficial, irrelevant, incidental. They were thrown in

down obscenity rulings and Linda Lovelace is a national idol. Denmark,
where porn was legalized and interest dropped, has learned that
forbidden fruit tastes the sweetest. But in America, we continue to toot
the "morality" line while hiding the dirty magazines under the bed.
Well, enough bullshit! Let's get it out in the open. Americans dig sex.
They are obsessed with sex. Especially two kinds—oral sex and large
mammaries. The only flick that might outdraw Throat would be Big
Bazooms, wherein Miss Nancy Knockers secretly nurses a newborn
infant in her cleavage while walking down the street. This is a country
where an X rating increases a movie's gate by 25%.
Technique, technique
So let’s not kid ourselves about socially redeeming factors, musical
scores and the like. If Deep Throat has one social purpose, it's
educational. One, it's a good release—outlet—sublimation (choose one)
for hardup persons who aren't getting any and want to remember how
it's done. Two, it's good therapy for couples who hit the sheets
occasionally but think that maybe something's missing, or we're not
doing it right, or how come you can't get it in any further? And three,
it's good for the curious bunch of lechers that comprise our nation of
voyeurs. And in answer to those anticipated nasty letters, nobody is
forcing those people who lined up around the block when Throat came
to Buffalo to pay their $5. Those of you who arg morally offended can
stay home and read Love Story. Those who want to see some good
cocksucking—read on.
And now back to our show. You've probably read a thousand
times how Linda Lovelace can't find sexual happiness till this horny
doctor discovers that her clitoris is located in the bottom of her
throat— and proceeds to try to tickle it. In the first 15 minutes which
sets up this intense plot, the acting is atrocious. Then Linda starts
mouthing a few penises and well. . she's very natural. She sucks. She
goes up and down and around. She uses her tongue. She takes it all the
way in. What style, what grace. She shows the females in the audience
some good techniques, and gives the men some good fantasies.
.

Oral turn-on

The camerawork in these scenes in inspiring. The audience gasps as
she downs the inflamed manhood of several studs, none of whom are
small. A couple spurt onto her face, and she licks it up—clearly she
for the Supreme Court and for those who must convince themselves of
the redeeming value of a movie about a fellatress. But for those who
don't have to massage their superegos this way, the flick is pure and
simple; a showcase for the world's most famous cocksucker to do her
thing.

Lines around the block
More on the adventures of Mighty Mouth later. But first a word
about American morality, obscenity rulings, and other related
perversions. This should be no revelation: AMERICANS ARE
FUCKED UP ABOUT SEX. No two ways about it. Look at your
friends. Look at yourself. See? And what is the cause of this
deep-rooted (no pun intended) phobia? It is because we are totally
obsessed but refuse to admit it.
Thus Deep Throat creates lines around the block in Manhattan,
lines of willing, consenting adults just dying to part with $5 to see Ms.
Lovelace in action, and a repressed old judge rules the film obscene. He
has decreed that consenting adults shall not be admitted to a theater to
witness fellatio. His decision is ridiculed, but it becomes law. We
discipline our daughters about short skirts and hide our fuck books in
the night table. We are a sexually schizophrenic nation.
And it is this sexual schiz, this ceaseless fascination with the
forbidden, which produces a nation in which Supreme Courts hand

loves it. For once we see a female who clearly, unabashedly enjoys sex.
No feigned resistance, no rape scenes, no "I have a headache." This girl
digs the cock; it's as simple as that.
There are also varying scenes of cunnilingus, copulation and other
variations on a theme. All in all it's an hour of first-class blowjobs,
free-for-all sex, and a little cute humor (a spreadeagled woman asks her
cunniling-ing lover: "Do you mind if I smoke while you eat?") Deep
Throat is a good sex flick. It's a turn-on, if orality turns you on. It's
hopefully the start of a whole bunch of up-front, unabashed,
maybe-a-little-better-plot sex flicks. That is, if the courts don't totally
ccrack down and deem such films as offending our prurient interests. '/*
whatever they are. Maybe they'll try to hand down a rule against
masturbatory fantasies next. What is this country coming to when ya
can't even take in a good porno film on a lonely Friday night? I bet
even Nixon, Judge Tyler and these other repressive fascists pop a
hardon once in awhile. Print that. Jack Anderson!
But if I read one more review about Deep Throat’s social value. I'll
puke. If the audience went home and tried something new, and if a few
girls learned to give decient blowjobs from watching this film, and if the
sex lives of its viewers improved .002 because of it, that's its value.
Unless Throat is cut before this sees print, Ms. Lovelace is now blowing
at the Allendale Theater. Don't hide your face when you stand on line.

Toma
(Vexin' violence)

This is the year of violence on
television. There are so many
police and detective stories it
becomes extemely difficult to
follow them all. One cop can't
see, another plays cop from a
wheelchair, and still another eats
so much that he leaves only about
one-third of the show for drama
and suspense. Television
moneymakers see the expanding
interest of viewers for these shows
and quickly pounce on the
prospect.

The rate 6f new police shows
now seem to be outnumbering our
annual birth rate. And just like
any other fad or trend on T.V.,
the more that fad is exploited, the
more tasteless and boring it
becomes. However, for all the
Griffs, Barnaby Jones, and
McClouds, there is Toma

He has a lot of friends and

Remember the night Marlon Brando was on the
of
Dick Cavett Show in June? Brando ran the gamut
alternating
between
by
schizophrenic intransigence
moments of utter pretentiousness and sincerity.
Cavett didn't exactly rise to the occasion, but who
besides him would have enough guts to go a few
rounds.with Brando in the first place? He is, after all,
the same guy who played Terry Molloy, Stanley
Kowalski, and Don Vito Corleone all in one lifetime.
Anyway, it was great to see that all America
agreed for one night; Johnny Carson was definitely
little league next to The Godfather\ As a result of
Cavett's insistence on hearing the real dirt behind
Last Tango In Paris, and his obvious inability to deal
with Brando's eccentricity, Marlon came out looking
a bit like the young Brando wo used to ride down
Hollywood Boulevard with a trick arrow through his
head, and Cavett came out looking like Kim Agnew
the day Daddy wouldn't let her march.

public service messages. The majority of the usual
Buffalo enterprises that use television as their most
valuable medium for advertising, apparently felt that
either Cavett could not control a large enough
audience, or the program was telecast too late. It
could have bfcen a combination of both. In any
event, at least we didn't have to deal with Dapper
Dan Creed and his Fly-By-Night Bullshit)
Decent media man
The real issue at hand is this: Dick Cavett
deserves credit! He doesn't have Carson's "Let's eat
peaches and ice cream in bed" flare.... but he
consistently brings worthwhile people to talk about

Boring Baker
Cavett recovered, and went on to do a taped

broadcast from Savage Sam Ervin's Caucus Room,
where the Watergate Hearings are being held.
Weicker was decent, and while Howard Baker just
about bored me to death, Cavett handled the show
well. At that time, I would rather have seen an
on-the-spot interview with Carl Stern, Dan Schorr,
Terry Lenzner, and Maureen Dean. (All you
Watergate freaks take note!)
Thanks to WBEN, which has picked up this
year's option on the Dick Cavett Show, everyone
who was watching saw Dick's season premiere with
his two-night presentation of the illustrious
Katherine Hepburn. That could have been the three
most enjoyable hours I've ever spent watching any
talk show, down through the abbreviated history of
television.
The first show included a ten-minute segment of
video that was rolling before the show was scheduled
to begin, and I would bet that the first portion was
completely candid. Not only is Katherine Hepburn
the most attractive sixty-year old woman I have ever
seen, but her obvious penchant for nonsense and her
good-natured obsession with making everyone crazy
about her, make her utterly irresistable. Even the
cynic would have to say that she just could be the
greatest thing that ever hit Hollywood or
Connecticut. And what cheekbones!

Roll Out

(Roll it up)

Roll Out has all the ingredients
of a racial-humor comedy, but
just doesn't make it. Essentially
it's about the "Red Ball Express,"
which was an Army" trucking
company functioning in Europe
during World War II. The show
stars Stu Gilliam as a "Sad
Sack"-type corporal truck driver.
Along with, him are Hilly Hicks,
Gilliam's side-kick, and Mel Stuart
as the norotious sargeant B.J. The
rest of the cast is also black and
unknown. There are two white
actors in the series; I suppose it's
tokenism.
In fact, there is absolutely no
black/white comedy to the show.
Neither is the show interested in
following through with its
historical premise. Instead we get
a half-hour of one-liners from
Gilliam with the only laughs
coming from the laugh track, and

a story line which is so superficial
that it seems to have been written
after the jokes to give the show
some semblance of form.

There have been good comedy
shows about World War II in the
past, such as Hogan's Heroes and
McHale's Navy, which did a fine
job of intertwining comedy with a
plot which at least had something
to do with the main idea of the
show, but in the case of Roll Out
there is absolutely no correlation.
For all intents and purposes. Roll
Out could be taking place on the
streets of Harlem as easily as in
France during World War II.
It seems like CBS had thirty
minutes to fill on Friday night
before the nine o'clock movie and
Roll Out is what they picked. I
don't think this show will last half
a season. It's an absolute waste of
time to sit and watch it.

which she would never find, she talked about
everything from vandalizing houses when she was 15,
to Hollywood's Golden Years. All this was done with
a seething enthusiasm that made one believe she was
in the living room with Tracy and Bogie. Bogie with
his bourbon, Spencer with hisBible.
Unreminiscent of most other interviews with
Hollywood's finest, there were absolutely no
pretentions, or condescension, .or puerile head
games. It was all out front, and the show just went
so smoothly you began to wonder whether this was
really Dick Cavett and late-night television. There
was none of that let's talk about sex ad-libbing that
sent Carson to the top of Nielson.
Talk about free women, Kate could just about
burn out any man who even talks to her. Cavett
hardly even said a word the whole first show. Kate
just rambled on and giggled, giving a most sincere
display of why she is so admired. There is a strange
mixture of gentleness and defiance that one can't
escape being enamored by; and when she is not too
excited or nervous, and can get all the words out, she
is extremely eloquent. Katherine possesses the rare
quality of being able to project intense feeling by
word of mouth as well as physical presence, which
makes her just as remarkable a person as she is an
actress.

Sponsors cop out
By the way, Johnny Carson entertained the
antics of none other that Don Rickies, Buddy
Hackett, Bert Reynolds, and Carol Wayne just
previous to the Cavett show. They brought Carol out
last. She was dessert. The question remains whether
Carol could last ten minutes off the Johnny Carson
show. Maybe we should set her up with Dick? No,
he's much too small for her!

And Cavett's commercials! Common Cause:
"We want to make the government YOUR
government"
The United Negro College Fund: "A
mind is a terrible thing to waste" The American
Forestry Association: "The most dangerous animal
in the forest is the one with the brains".... And
others in the same vein.
For whatever the reason, it seems the national
sponsors dropped their time slots for the Buffalo
broadcast. WB£N probably could not sell the

usually worthwhile things. The best move ABC ever
made was the shift to his one-every-four-weeks stint.
He's now got the time to do what he wants and does
best, while at the same time not having to sacrifice
his and our intellectual integrity by bringing on
fools. The release from constant competition with
Carson on a day-to-day basis will finally allow Cavett
to realize his potential. He is on his way!
He may not be ABC's prize Nielson package, but
at least we don't have to see Alan King at the
Indiana State Fair every three weeks. What a farce
that was! Just imagine the Dick Cavett Habit being
replaced by the Alan King Thing poking its way into
our bedrooms. Alan King's rap is the Jewish
equivalent of Dicky Betts telling us how he was born
in the back of a greyhound bus.
If anyone can give me evidence that Dick Cavett
isn't one of the most important and overall decent
media figures around, I'll eat my red hat. As for
Katherine Hepburn, who doesn't look a day over 24,
or act a day over 14: God bless people who wear
white dresses and tell the truth. Dick ended his show
by telling Katherine that he had fallen in love with
her at least seven times in the last hour. That's all

Exciting
'Woyzeck'
o pens at Co u rtyard
#

by Randi Schnur
Spectrum Theater Critic

First published in 1838, Woyzeck by Georg
Buchner is a fragmentary but brilliant work which
seems to have set the stage for such
twentieth-century playwrights as Bertolt Brecht and
Samuel Beckett.
Loosely based on a highly controversial murder
case which caused quite a stir in Leipzig 17 years
earlier, Woyzeck is the story of an honest, simple
and rather stupid soldier whose only act of
aggression against the world which has repeatedly
victimized him is the climactic stabbing of his
beloved but unfaithful mistress. The play opened at
the Theater Department's Center for Theater
Research last week.
Franz Woyzeck is an authentic shlemiel whose
inability to rise above the put-downs that his world
constantly delivers leaves him with a terrible
persecution complex. This culminates in the delusion
that he is being pursued by, of all people, the
fraternity of Freemasons. To earn a few pennies for
his mistress, Marie, and their child, he shaves a
captain who taunts him with absurd lectures on the
virtues of being virtuous.
Lettuce for peas
He gets an additional three groschen each day
from a mad doctor who forces the soldier to eat
nothing but peas as part of an experiment to

determine the effect of this diet on his urine. ("How
should the doctor live," asks his friend the captain,
"had not God created man for his use?") Small
wonder, then, that he pessimistically describes the
rays of the sun as "God emptying his bedpan on the
world."
Given these circumstances, we can almost
sympathize with Woyzeck's exaggerated jealous rage
when he learns of Marie's affair with a handsome
drum major. When he finally confronts her, she signs
her own death warrant by screaming that she would
rather have a knife in her body than his hands on
hei. Obsessed with this new idea that she has given

!■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

him, Woyzeck buys a long knife, the only murder
weapon he can afford, and lures her out near the
pond where he stabs her.

Blood/lust

Later, back in town, he tries to seduce Marie's
friend Kathy, who notices the blood he has
forgotten to wash off. Shocked at last into realizing
what he has done, Woyzeck remembers the knife and
rushes back to hide it. Following the floating knife
out further and further into the water, he finally
sinks with it, dying as ignominiously as he has lived.
Buchner's construction of the play makes it very
difficult to stage. The large number of scenes, none
of which is more than a few minutes long, could
have made it extremely hard to follow. However,
Martin Tackel's tight direction held it all together,
and Richard Alongi's very sparse set
a couple of
benches which doubled as seats for actors not
involved in a particular scene
helped to create a
sense of intimacy and closeness which emphasized
the confinement of Woyzeck's world.
—

—

Credit where due
All of the performances were excellent,
especially those of Elliott Burtoff as the tragic hero,
Maria Corsaro as his mistress, and Tommy Koenig in
the role of the captain. Mike Grodenchik, Susan
Wehle, Steve Heisler, and director Tackel (who made
his appearance in voice only) did beautiful jobs as
the supporting characters.
Marty Maniak was particularly fine in a trio of
roles, which included an ominously funny portrayal
of a carnival barker showing off a marvelously clever
played by Burtoff, who cannot, of course,
horse
completely shed his character of Woyzeck.
The Theater Department has gotten the
semester off to a very auspicious start with this first
production. An exciting play with a
more-than-competent cast is certainly always a great
thing to find, and if Woyzeck is any indication, the
Department's new home at the tiny Courtyard
Theater on Lafayette Street richly deserves all the
playgoers who can be packed into it.

Chick Corea

Heavy, friendly rock tonite
by Norman Salant

/

Spectrum Music Critic

Hope you're not busy tonight, and if you are,
hope it's for the right reason, though there's three of
them: John Mayall, Bob Hope, and Chick

Corea/Larry Coryell. Take your pick. Chances are
you already know all about Mayall, and you'd never
waste your time paying and travelling to see Bob
Hope do Chrysler ads. So this is to reveal where
Chick Corea's head is at and why you should make it
to the Gym tonight.
First,
there
have been
these
green
mimeographed sheets tacked up all over the place
CHICK
saying "JAZZII
COREA, LARRY
CORYELL at Clark Gym, Friday at 8 p.m." That
needs explaining. Chick Corea began as a jazz pianist.
He made albums like Tones for Joan's Gones, Now
He Sings, Now He Sobs, Is, generally moving more
and more far out in the way of avant-garde music,
ultimately climaxed in a group called Circle with
Dave Holland (who shaved his head), Barry Altshul,
and Anthony Braxton, and was widely recognized as
one of the best bands around.
New direction

At the same time he got it on with Miles Davis
and was a full-fledged member of his troupe when
Miles was getting electric, appearing also on every
album from In a Silent Way to On the Comer. When
the seventies hit, something happened to Chick
Corea. He began to feeL less and less satisfied with
the music he was playing, as it was basically more
and more introspective, and he began to feel
alienated from the world outside, fearful that the
space would become a barrier to communication.
Circle disbanded, and a groups called Return to
Forever was born.
The music of this band was so warm and
outgoing that it could easily have become your best
friend, it was full of that much personality.
Seemingly very simple, but actually quite complex,
it had energy and spirit, and felt incredibly good. It
was tinged with a Latin flavor and became known as
Light As a Feather, an album released on Polydor
but produced by Foreign Unlimited Productions, an

,

independent company based, believe it or not, on
goodwill and humanism, an attempt to make the
often stifling "business" part of the industry more
personable. That is the kind of head Chick-Corea is
into now. I saw Return to Forever at Max's in New
York City and felt the irresistable aura of the man
and the music.
Rock and Stanley Clarke
However, things are a little different now. For
one thing, the original Return to Forever broke up,
and with it went the Light as a Feather sound. What
used to be a vocalist and flute/sax has become an
electric guitar, the bass is electric, the drums are
rocking and the piano is harsher. Return to Forever
has made a transition from Light as a Feather to
Heavy as a Rock. No, there will be no "JAZZI" at
Clark Gym tonight. It's going to be a night of the
heaviest, most powerful, imaginative rock music
heard in a long time. And the friednliest, because it
can still be your best friend.
The musicianship is about the best anywhere,
headed by Chick, and featuring Stanley Clarke, who
after a couple of years as a pro is now heralded as
the best, most revolutionary bassist of our time.
Then there's Bill Connors on guitar, also amazing but
as yet unknown (yes, another great new guitar player
has arrived), Mingus Lewis on percussion and conga,
and Lenny White on drums. Lenny is second only to
Billy Cobham as a drummer. He spent a few years
with Miles and gained his reputation there, and he's
absolutely incredible.
They're all very young, or young-looking, all in
their twenties, and they got the energy. That's just
one act on the bill. There's also Larry Coryell, who
you all know by now and who is not a jazzman
either except for one album he did with McLaughlin
called Spaces. Coryell is, well, Coryell, as someone
once said about Jerry Gracia a few years back, and
he should do a little stretching out himself as the
evening progresses (with Charles Octet and firedog
not far behind), so you've got to either be extremely
busy, apathetic, sick, or stupid not to make it
tonight, because it’s only tonight and there'll be no
tomorrows tonight. Don't blow it.

He walked around, sighed, and sat down in his

thought, “I'm gonna have sumthing alot more

acquired his first body: sure it was just a minor rock

gold wire, and automatically connected the black

Audience participation
marks Image Theatre Chris Britz's bold work
by Stephen Aminoff

except confusion where a new
kind of understanding should be.
A radio play written for a 1939
listener which speaks about
impending doom at the hands of
some monstrous invader had a
very special importance for. that
audience. To make this piece
work today one needs to be very
careful about how the text is
treated. Sitting around a radio
with the family sometime after
dinner is a very different
experience from a live stage
presentation. MacLeish knew this,
which is why he wrote the play a
certain way.

Spectrum Theater Critic

-e

Good ideas were at work last
Friday and Saturday night when
Tom Fontana's Image Theater
staged an ambitious but somewhat
unsatisfying • interpretation of
Archibald MacLeish's pre-war
radio play The Fall of the City in
the parish house of the
Westminster Presbyterian Church.
Image Theater clearly
recognizes a concept which is
essential for anyone with an
interest in the art form to grasp;
the idea of theater infers a very
special "living" relationship not
just between live actors on a stage,
but also between those actors and
the live bodies out there who the
actors hope to reach with their
work.
Image Theater makes a strong
contribution to this idea by very
earnestly encouraging the
audience to participate in the
action of the play. The idea
wasn't so much for us to join 6
crowd of screaming spectators but
to be that crowd.

Aragon Ballroom

To illustrate the problem
involved, the name of the first
character in the play is "Voice of
the Announcer." Seeing an actor
reading this character's lines from
a podium while trying to imitate
the "Announcer''-style necessarily

dilutes the original intention of
the words.
Generally, the technical acting
was fine with David Domedian's
honest enthusiasm setting the
pace for the rest of the company
including Paul Fontana, Patti
Heisler, Pamela Kilburn, Grant
King, David Kowal, Michelle
Maulucci, Patricia Weber and
Brian T. Whitehall.
Insofar as we didn't know who
was what when we walked in, it
was easy to pick out the actors
once the play got under way, just
by looking for the people who
seemed unusually interested in
what was going on. A little blond
fellow got some of the circulating
free bread caught in his throat.
His coughing couldn't help but
wrest our attention from "the
action," and whoever was working
to ignore it might just as well have
worn a sign: "I am a dramatic
function."
Ultimately, the insensitivity
manifested itself in a general lack
of concern for an audience who
just wanted to know what it was
supposed to be participating in.
To that extent, the evening left
much to be desired. However, The
Fall of the City attempted to
really work with the people who
go to the theater, and in that
sense the evening held the seeds of
some terrific excitement.

Paradise Lost
Indeed, the whole night might
have been quite wonderful had
the actors exhibited the same sort
of sensitivity to the collective
energy of an audience that they
expected the audience to show
them. It's difficult enough to
understand MacLeish's rather
cryptic verse if administered to us
in small doses. When the material
is thrown at us by quite obvious
"plants" (i.e., actors posing as
spectators, strategically
interspersed among the audience).

plays with illusion ofspace
by Erich E. Ratsow
Spectrum Art Critic

I've been scouting around the city, visiting the
local galleries, looking at the Burchfield wallpapers
at State, even went to a country art fair near
Lockport.
Unmistakably, the most interesting things
happening are right here on campus, on the second

floor of Norton Union.
Rather than do a review, I enlisted, the help of
some friends who will give you their reactions which,
hopefully, conveys the sense of excitement and
interest you might get seeing the art works here.
First, the ever-beautiful Appolonia reports on
the Chris Britz showing in Gallery 219, a very timely
exhibit arranged under the direction of Sharon Till.
The Britz work gives people excellent exposure to
the contemporary concerns of process in art and it's
functional illusionism.
Secondly, Rio Ponte turns a few phrases and
adds up his feelings on the small fetching
photographs of Paul Weissman, now being displayed
in the Music Room.
Chris Britz
Is what you see what you see? The Chris Britz
exhibit, now showing in Gallery 219 until October
17, is more than a trompe I'oeil to be sure, but even
at that level the craftmanship can be appreciated.
The exhibit is a skilled transformation of
three-dimensionality into two dimensions on canvas.
The illusion of space exists. Elements of light and
shade after reality via spray gun and shades of blue
and green paint on percale sheets nailed to the wall.
Several drawings can also be examined closely
for effect. The artist's knowledge of perspective is
employed to create surreal environments, plans for
other paintings, speculations and proposals for other
convincing images
These things make you want to go home and try
to do it.
Only to find that there is more
than meets the eye. not
only visually but also in the production.
The possibilities are limitless
The visions are stimulating.
The concept is bold and worth seeing,
or trying to see.

In the earth of memory
The interpolated image, the near passage as
though a series of movie frames and the intersticed
phantom frames were collected as one. A car passes,
will pass and had passed. Strange things happen
when you condense time. A fact emerges that is
without time. It chooses time and interposes itself at
moments to form history. But the fact reappears and
disappears in slight trepidations of memory. Without
locus, without site, we come to sense parameters in
equally unrelated facts. Look at these pictures. A
place moves.

�'Westworld'

Living the ultimate fantasies
has
fantasies.
Everybody
Fantasies are a means by which
we can escape the humdrum
problems of everyday life. There
is a certain fascination in watching
other people experiencing their
fantasies, which were originally
just as far out as our own. Maybe
it is this type of fascination which
makes Michael Crichton's movie
Westworld so interesting.
Crichton, well known as the
author of The Andromeda Strain.
does not wander too far from that
book's formula. It plays upon the
helplessness of man, by pitting
him against some force which he
initially seems helpless to fight. In
Westward, Crichton adds an extra
twist, with the invincible force
being that of man's creation.
Richard

$1000-a-day vacation to Delos,

the
most
amusement park in the world. It
contains three parts: Westworld,
Medieval Europe World, and
Imperial Rome World.

Programmed plot
The settings include robots
which are specially programmed
to act a role in the time setting,
and above all, programmed to
please the vacationer in one form
or another. Brolin has been there
Benjamin
shows
before;
excitement and anticipation, as
this is his first time. This
anticipation

parallels

the

audience's, as our appetite is
whetted with enticing details of
Delos.
The plot itself is simple. For a

good portion of the film, Brolin
and Benjamin are shown enjoying
their fantasies, which range from
winning two gun battles with a
gunslinging robot played by Yul

him?},

Brynner (remember
to
making love with two saloon-girl
robots. Continually the phrase
"Nothing can go wrong" is
repeated, making it obvious that
such expressions of confidence
will
probably
be
soon

undermined.
This anticipation of doom is
"furthered by switching to the
scene-behind-the-scenes
where
technicians continually speak of
small
mechanical
difficulties
developing in the robots, which
get bigger
and bigger. The
complete breakdown of their
operation is inevitable.
Homework in paradise
Stretching a simple
plot
showing a paradise turn into a
nightmare is an old affair, and
could have been quite dull, if not
for the nature of this paradise.
Crichton has done his homework
well for this, his first attempt at
directing. He has developed
Westworld with such believable
detail that it is completely
engrossing to follow this artificial
western society.

For Brolin and Benjamin, the
thrill was being able to control
their environment without having
to accept any of the consequences
for their actions: man's true goal.
You watch with interest as
everything comes out for the
best .. never mind that this will
all back-fire later, this is now!
All along, Brolin keeps making
.

-

remarks to his colleague which all
add up to the joy and amazement
of being able to experience the
imaginary setting to such an
extent of reality. This amazement
continues even up to the point
when he is shot by Brynner, after
hell lets loose, and exclaims:"l've
really been shot," in an expression
which appears to say,"See, they'll
go to any extent to make it seem
realistic."
Helplessly Hollywood

The chase scene between the
robotized Brynner and Benjamin
leaves a certain feeling of
helplessness, which is summarized
by
an
engineer
Benjamin
encounters
excitedly
who
comments;"He'll
get
you
eventually. You can try all you
can, but he's so well programmed
that you don't stand a chance."

At

times

the

chase

included

Hollywood-ish breaks for the
good guy, such as having the
"villain's" gun not work at a
crucial time, or the just plain bad
of
marksmanship
the
evil
oppressor. But all in all, the scene
in
showing
succeeds
man's
helplessness against what only he
could create—a killer.

The film obviously is dealing
with an old issue: although man
thinks he has his creations under
control in a fixed setting, when it
comes down to the real thing, he
does not. A second issue of the
film is that the conquest of one
man over what on the outside
appears to be another man, is the

planned highlight of each visitor's
stay. All three settings have a

with violence, and
a man's coming out as conqueror
in a struggle against other men is
considered a part of his utopia.
Westworld is not at all what
would be called a great artistic
achievement.
The plot is a
much-gone-over one, and its
message can be conceived simply
by looking at the advertisements

preoccupation

with the phrase: "Where nothing
can go w-o-r-n-g." But this is a
movie just for enjoyment. In a
way, it's science fiction, but at the
same time, it's believable enough
to get one emotionally involved.
So sit back, and dream, despite
the nightmare which awaits you.

Jethro Tull Passion Play (Chyrsalit Records)

A Passion Play—Xo be read in a British accent;
I sat waiting for my nails to dry. I thought to myself
what an incredible break it was
what a miracle that
me, a mere cub
Joe Walter Brennan had given me
reporter: working girl
me
two tickets to the Linewll
Theater for tonight. Painting my lips, checking my gown, I
nervously leafed through the program, careful of my
still-moist nails, and tried to compose myself for the
ominous event. What to say? Who to address?
Straightening my seams, mumbling to myself the histories
of Mark Ridley &amp; Co. Suppose I forgot. At least, I thought
to myself smugly, I'll look my best. The bell rang. One last
check in the mirror and I ran down the three flights of
stairs to the car
to meet John) Again I realized how
lucky I was to have John, and what a reassuring force he
was to me on this, my first theater review.
We arrived in the already-darkened theater. I was
determined to see and hear everything. Sitting tensely in
my seat I was as alert as I would have been if I were driving
through a school zone at three o'clock.
And then the first chords of the Passion Play. I
strained to hear. Heartbeats piano music. I tried to match
the actors' faces to their pictures in the playbill.
NO NO
I clutched John's arm feverishly. John,
John I can't see a thing. I fought for composure, thinking
my mascara would run. John John John I CAN’T SEED!
People all around shushed me. Damn dowagers and lords.
Don't you understand? I can't see .1 can't see.
John came to the rescue as usual. Just relax, Deirdre,
remember what the doctor said. Yes yes it was true.: Johr
as always, was right. Nothing left to do but listen as closely
as I could and draw on my other senses so as to witness the
show for my review a review as good as any of the other
critics.
I heard the music, I heard the words, the static, even
the actors' movements on the stage. Scenes from my
childhood passed in front of me in rapid succession. I
broke out in a cold sweat. Was this GOOD? or BAD?
I thought of my responsibility to the public. They
were counting on MEM Me Deirdre MacIntyre, Critic nee
Cub Reporter. And I didn't know what was happening. It
wasn't enough just to hear everything. No, I had to know
what was going on on stage. I had to see it at the same
time. I reached out for John but discovered, to my utter
dismay, that he had gone outside for a smoke. No one
could help me now. I fought to quench the fears that were
rising in me. I would lose my job. I would lose my pride. I
would be blacklisted, maybe even deported. Lines of music
wafted through my thoughts. ba-ba-ba-ba-BOM. I would be
forced to crawl home—a failure in the big city.
Du-du-du-du-du-doop. My parents would treat me like a
child, la-la-la-la-la. I heard the lyrics as if in a dream; "And
your little sister's immaculate virginity wings away on the
bony shoulders of a young horse named George who stole
surreptitiously into geography revision

And then I passed out with my «ieed on the typewriter, a
small trickle of spittle making it* way down tcliffy blotter.
I awoke to find Joe Orson Welle? standing above me.
This was the moment of truth. "Jed," he said, "you're
fired." I mumbled something about truth and how he'd
lost all his ideals since he'd gotten to be a big shot. Then I
left. I had a hangover.
The next afternoon the papers arrived. Still nursing
my throbbing head, I saw the banner headlines:
"JETHRO TULL RETIRES HURT"
I raced through the story. Critics hostile to Passion
Play. Ian Anderson upset over bad response to what he
feels is his best work. Tull going into retirement
forever.. .lack of appreciation.
My head reeled. My God, they really do read their
own notices. Oh, critics of the world, you cause it, you
with your harsh words trying to intimidate the fans and
hurting the artists' feelings so badly that they will never
play again! For shame! But wait. This is not Peter Pan.
Tinkerbell's life does not depend on the audience's
applause. If you believe in Jethro Tull clap your hands.
The light is getting stronger. The poison is defeated. This is
not Peter Pan. This is the Real World. Jethro Tull is going
into retirement. And all because the music wasn't liked,
the Passion Play was left passionlessly abandoned on the
nun's doorstep in March.
But what did you expect? The times are changing.
This Was is great because the music five years ago was
great. And we all heard "My Sunday Feeling" over our
FM's until our ears buzzed. Everyone who ends up
disliking Passion Play was an ardent Tull fan of the earlier
days. Some of my best friends are rock stars. Why would I
insult one if he hasn't gone bad? Well, get it through your
heads that that is insulting. And if you buy a copy of
Passion Play, just remember that food has no taste unless
you can smell it.

What the hell. So I'm on vacation, out in a boat on
some beautiful lake no doubt, soaking in the vibes of a fish
on the line, and what gets into my head? Monk. From
nowhere, right? But no, from here. Yeah, I know it's old,
and I know it was even a long time ago that it was reissued,
but damn, like a strainer it keeps seepin' through. Time
was when a guilty conscience wouldn't affect nobody, so
who cares when it's all over and done with. But still it keep
on seepin'. So doggonnit Rumpelstiltskin and it still keep

there's a definite future in ressurected R&amp;B stylizations,
I've been waiting for the inevitable imitator to show up
finally they have
but guess what? These guys cut Geils
and Co. by a long shot. A Monkey in a Silk Suit is Still
Called a Monkey is the most exciting new record to come
out in a long while.
Immediately they set their theme with Christian's
"Funky Broadway" formula horn backing, truncated
rhythm backdrops, the whole works, blending to form one
heckuva driving mass. Duke's a white boy with long locks,
but his voice is totally immersed in the language of the
ghetto, dirt and rat-infested urinals.
Then they knock the socks off ya with an
instrumental. Class, real class... all done in simplistic
formula style, nothin' fancy but all solid. The song
"Chinese Chicken" might double for a seventies version of
the immortal Black Pearl "White Devil."
Can you imagine a group actually gettin’ away with an
yeah
so
eight-minute cut on their first Ip unscarred
they go and do a song called "Clouds"
no Joni "Tush"
Mitchell puke-out here, just a nice set of rhythm patterns,
searing geetar, shit, this is more and more entertaining as
the minutes fly by
that's a good word for this group,
"entertaining," like whips and black leather stockings.
Anyway, "Clouds" goes for eight short minutes and like all
good long songs it manages to sound like a two-minute
fifty-second speed-out.
And to actually top this, Duke and the Extremes set
you on your haunches with the immdrtal Otis Redding
knife-wound, "I've Been Lovin' You Too Long (To Stop
(Slow)." It's simply enough to state that they accomplish
what they set out to do rock 'n roll.
This is what happens on side one, we’ve still got side
two to go to bed with. Never put this record on late at
night unless, of course, you're playing with your body
chemicals and sleep is useless, this'll get your molecules
loose n' lively.
Just to mention something from side two: keep an ear
out for the harlot hymnal "Ain't No Ladies in the Street
Tonight" and Little Richard's jowl joustler "Slippin and
Slidin;" this might not get King Kong excited, or even
Mighty Joe Young, but Tarzan wouldn't stand a chance
'cause like they sez, A Monkey in a Suit is Still a Monkey.
Hubba, hubba
let’s wag our fingers and strut down the
Boulevard.

review. I got drunk along the way.
Staggering over to the typewriter, I started hunting
and pecking, bottle by my side. I cast away all my doubts
and thought: If this is my only chance, at least I'll say
what I think. Hiccup. I was racing the deadline. I ripped

ff thr ill. "Charii

can ta(l because if you listen real hard and think at the
same time you'll notice that there is not a single thing
missing or lacking, no improvements could possibly be
made, no stretching out like"if only he'd done lob-a-lobaloo instead of be-dah-bne-doo-bra-ping" because he's too
far out to be second-guessed.
It just goes to show that he's a genius and he's still
alive so never mindIJust check out the record and you'll be
doing all right. Especially get into the two takes of
"Functional." A simple blues, but it has that touch that
puts it in an upper stratosphere of expression and
creativity. You could, if you desired, go to sleep at night
to it like I did for a week straight-Monk ain't always
choppy and absurd, sometimes he's painfully plain and
that's when I love him most, because normalcy is
something I can fathom, and he does it so real that it hurts
and soothes at the same time, like all blues should. And to
think he was ridiculed for being avantgarde. It could make
you lose faith in ridiculing. Don't worry, Thelonius, I'm
with you and so are a few other hundred million musicians
of the mind and spirit. And there's nothing dissonant
about feeling that way, is there? No, no, no, we’ve got to

empire of corporate depth, set of twofers number three (or
was that four?) featuring the old Riverside recordings.
Riverside was at one time vibrant and productive with
the sounds of the old ('50's) jazzos, not really so old but
not so recent either, considering what Master Trane
accomplished in the following decade. And anyway, to get
back, there were people such as were Rollins, Wes Guitar,
and so on, you probably know them anyway if the name
Monk opens your eyes—and this isn't going to turn into a
namedropping who's who because everybody's had it just
about up to here with all the jazz elitists running around
proclaiming themselves the disciples of the holy music, the
way I see it, there's music and there's music and after that
there's still more music and it's all different and it can all
do the same thing, just in different ways, so it's really just
a question of style which is superficial anyway since it's
the motivating force and the goal that's important, not the
language used to get there.
Anyway, I'm in this boat looking at the sky and Monk
knocks on my door and so what else do you do when
Monk knocks, you let him in and see what's up. So this is
what's up. PURE MONK. That's right. Pure unadulterated
Monk, alone on the piano during sessions made in '55, '56,
'57, and '59, the bulk of it coming off two albums you
know you'll never find anywhere, Thelonius Himself and
Thelonius Alone in San Francisco. Twenty-one cuts, half
standards, half originals. Dig: "Solitude;" "Functional,"
"Blue Monk," "I Should Care," "Pannonica," and so on.
Solo. A little striding, a little balladeering, not schmaltzy
like McCoy gets on Ballads And Blues, but very clean and
precise, especially on the standards, just plodding along
but he's not really plodding, that's just his style and you

to express the hope that Green

The $20,000 in cash was
generated in an illegal manner and
was given by Matz to Gov. Agnew
in a manilla envelope in Gov.
Agnew’s office on or about June
16, 1968. In handing the envelope
to Gov. Agnew, Matz expressed

and told the governor that the
envelope contained the money
that Matz owed the governor in
connection with that work.
Matz made no further corrupt
payments to Mr. Agnew until
shortly after Mr. Agnew became
vice president, at which time Matz
calculated that he owed Mr.
Agnew approximately $ 10,000
more from jobs and fees which
the Matz firm had received from
Gov. Agnew’s administration since
July, 1968. After generating
$10,000 in cash in an illegal

Matz informed the vice president

No jurisdiction
Colfax, then a member of Congress, is believed to have made a
substantial profit from the shares. He escaped formal censure when the
House Judiciary Committee decided it had no jurisdiction over crimes
committed by a Vice President before he took office. Additional
revelations that Colfax accepted a $4000 campaign contribution in
1868, from a man who had supplied envelopes to the government while
Colfax was chairman of the committee on Post Offices and Post Roads,
took some of the luster from his part in the Cmd&amp;NfcbUiMSjaBdj&gt;L_
But Mr. Agnew has beaten mem all. By plSaBing ISflKWommaefc*
(no contest) to the income tax evasion charge, he has in effect, j
admitted his guilt, and traded his resignation for the Justice i
Department’s dropping of all other charges.
Like the other cases, however, Mr. Agnew’s action further delays
a settlement of the complicated constitutional question of the Vice
President’s (and, by extension, the President’s) immunity from
indictment and prosecution for criminal offenses while in office.

Mr. Agnew’s situation is absolutely without historical precedent.
Only three other Vice Presidents have been vulnerable to criminal
charges, and all three served out their terms without penalty or
subsequent action against them.
Aaron Burr, Vice President under Thomas Jefferson, was the only
Vice President to be formally charged with crimes committed while in
office. Local authorities charged him with murder in the 1804 shooting
of Alexander Hamilton. Burr challenged Hamilton to a duel to avenge
years of political opposition including what Burr felt, not
unreasonably, was a conspiracy to deprive him of the Presidency in
1800. Burr never claimed immunity from indictment but, for political
reasons, his case never went to court and he was not impeached.

I

11 AT THE RIGHT PRICE

!

Agnew’s situation
is unprecedented

Calhoun cleared
John C. Calhoun’s example is more instructive. As Vice President
under John Quincy Adams, Calhoun asked the House of
Representatives to investigate allegations that he had engaged in
profiteering while serving as Secretary of War under James Madison.
The House obliged him and he was subsequently cleared of all charges.
Mr. Agnew referred to this precedent when he requested that
House Speaker Carl Albert initiate a similar investigation into the
charges that Mr. Agnew accepted kickbacks from Maryland contractors
and extorted campaign contributions. Mr. Albert turned down Mr.
Agnew’s request.
The differences in the two cases were that the charges against Mr.
Calhoun were old news and that he was not under grand jury
investigation at the time.
The closest historical parallel is that of Schuyler Colfax, Vice
President under Ulysses S. Grant. In 1872, The New York Sun revealed
that Colfax took a gift of 20 shares from officials of the Credit Mobilier
Company, which had been formed by promoters of the Union Pacific
Railway to divert profits from construction of a transcontinental
railroad to themselves.

early 1960’$. In those days, Matz
paid 5 per cent of his fees from
Baltimore County contracts in
cash to one of Mr. Agnew’s close
associates.
After Mr. Agnew became
governor of Maryland, Matz
decided to make his payments
directly to Mr. Agnew. He made
no payments until the summer of
1968 when he and his partner
John Childs calculated that they
owed Mr. Agnew approximately
$20,000 in consideration for the
work which their firm had already
received from the governor’s
administration.

He probably would have been the

Peterson turned a sizzling lap

His performance gained him the

of pressure on me that I did not
need. I hit .360 away from home,
and only .233 at home.”
Piscotty was signed by the
Pittsburgh Pirates’ organization
several days after being selected in
the major league draft. “After the
draft, they got in touch with me.
Within three days, Joe Consoli
(Pittsburgh scout) made me an
offer. I didn’t get a bonus, and 1
told them I’d think about their
offer. A few days later, I accepted
and Consoli flew up here and
signed me. I think they wanted

Piscotty conceded that playing

differences between professional
and college baseball. “I had to get
used to playing every day,” said
Piscotty. “Even if you were
scheduled every day in college,
there were always rainouts. In
Niagara Falls you had to be able
to play every day.”
Piscotty mentioned- several
other differences in his first year
of professional baseball. ‘The bus
rides were worse, and they didn’t
provide you with meals,” Piscotty
reported. ‘They gave you $5 a
day for meals, which was about
enough to eat at McDonald’s. I
got around that by packing a
lunch, since I was living at home.”
The
ex-Bull slugger
was
optimistic about proceeding to a
higher minor league classification
next season. “I suppose there’s
Charleston,” commented Piscotty,
referring to the Pirates’ class A
South Carolina franchise. ‘The
one good thing that might help
me to go higher is that there’s a
long left field fence in Charleston,
and I am a dead pull hitter.”
Piscotty will have five months to
prepare himself to battle for a
promotion when he reports to the
Pirates’ training camp next March.

Today almost everybody isgetting into photography.
And it's not the snapshot variety. People are doing
sports stories, nature stories, portraits—you may
even have a friend who's doing photographs through
a microscope Or a telescope.
You also know that everybody has his own idea
about which camera is best. That s why it’s important
for you* to know about the Canon
Because it's the
system camera that s fast becoming the favorite of
professionals. And the new status symbol among
photography enthusiasts.

F-1.

The whole F-1 system includes over 40 lenses and
200 accessories. It's capable of doing virtually
everything in photography So whatever idea you
have for a picture, the F-1 has the equipment to make
sure you get it.
Because it was conceived from the beginning as a
system, it works as a system. All the elements are
quickly and easily interchangeable. No matter which
lens or accessory you use with the F-1 body you won't
have the feeling that something has been
tacked on.”
What's more the F-1 is comfortable to handle
Years ofresearch went into the design of the F-1 body
and placement of controls so your fingers fall
naturally into place. You'll appreciate this comfort
when you're on assignment. It's also an important
thing to keep in mind if you're investing in a camera
you plan to keep a long time.
Canon has been in the optics industry over 37
years. We make microscope equipment, amateur and
professional movie cameras and TV lenses. It's this
experience that helps make our still cameras the best
selling cameras in Japan. In America, it's just a matter
of time.
See your dealer for more information. He’ll also
show you Canon's other SLR cameras, like the FTb
and TLb. Both of which offer accurate metering, easy
film loading, a wide range of lenses and the same
standard of engineering that goes into the F-1.

Bulk drop triangular meet

Ym Ml

Bob Cohen, a promising freshman who was
hampered early by injuries, paced Buffalo as he
finished fifth in the field of 25 with a time of 30:59.
Two disappointments in the race for the-Bulls were
Tuttle and Angelo Rivera. Rivera, also a freshman,
has had two bad races after a solid start. He finished
tenth on Wednesday. McDonough, however, is not
overly concerned: “He (Rivera) was looking very
good up until that point (Saturday’s 94th place
finish in a field of 127).
The Bulls 0-8 record is misleading according to
McDonough. ‘This (Wednesday’s) meet is the first
meet against teams on our own level,” McDonough

said.
The next race for the Bulls will be Saturday
morning against LeMoyne and RIT at Grover

Buffalo’s season-long losing streak continued
Wednesday as the cross-country Bulls dropped a
triangular meet to St. Bonaventure and crosstown
rival Buffalo State at Grover Cleveland golf course.
The Bulls lost to the Bonnies 24-31 and 18-37 to the
Bengals. The Bengals won the meet with a 22-23
decision over St. Bonaventure. The win was Buffalo
State Coach Roger Houk’s first in his three years of
coaching.
It was a disappointing race for the Bulls, who
had hoped to finish with at least second place
showing. Buffalo Coach Jim McDonough noted
before the race: “It’s going to be close. I thinkBuff
State is too tough for us, but I think we can catch
St. Bonaventure. I hope we can catch one of them.”
The Bulls’ runners were even more optimistic. Team
leader Bruce Tuttle, predicted: “It should be cold

any pre-meet predictions, but these teams are all

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Spiro

T.

Agnew

resigned

yesterday.
Mr. Agnew pleaded no contest to one charge of
income tax evasion and received a three-year
probation and a $10,000 fine from Judge Walter E.
Hoffman in U5. District Court in Baltimore. Mr.
Agnew’s resignation was worked out in advance with
the Justice Department in exchange for a
recommendation of “leniency” on the tax evasion
charge and the dropping of all other pending
criminal charges. Calling it a “tragic moment in
history," Judge Hoffman said if the Justice
Department had not intervened on Mr. Agnew’s
behalf, “I would have sent him to jail.”
President Nixon will move “expeditiously” to
nominate a Vice-Presidential successor, who is
subject to approval by a majority of both houses of
Congress in accordance with the 25th Amendment
to the Constitution. The White House indicated the
President’s decision will not take a matter of weeks;
some expected a nomination within a few days.

News Analysis

Politics to influence
possible successors
by Howie Kurtz

Editor-in-Chief
The United States is now
without a Vice President.
President Nixon must now
nominate a new Vice President
who must be approved by a
majority vote of both houses of
Congress.

Mr. Nixon met yesterday with
“appropriate national leaders in
and out of the Administration”
including his staff, Cabinet and

House said the President will act
“expeditiously,” indicating that
his decision would not take a
matter of weeks.
Nobody could have expected a
Vice-Presidential resignation when
the 2Sth Amendment to the
Constitution, designed to insure
succession to the No. 2 spot in
case of death or disability of the
Vice President, was ratified in
1967. But the surprise resignation
of Spiro T. Agnew yesterday has
thrust the 25th Amendment into
a politically charged situation in
which a Democratically-controlled

Nixon’s nominee to the position a

threatening to attach a rider to
any acceptance measure of a
successor, stating that the new
Vice President would agree not to
run for President in 1976. They
have admitted, however, that
there may be no way for them to
enforce such a pledge.
“It would be unconstitutional"
for Congress to attach such a
rider, but “doubtful the courts
would interfere," said W. Howard
Mann, professor of law and
consultant
on
the
25th
Amendment. He added: “The
Agnew’s
reason
for
plea-bargaining was to escape a jail
sentence."
One argument previously raised
against Democratic insistence on a
non-Presidential person is that
since the Vice President can at
any moment become President of
the United States, he should be a
man of Presidential caliber. If
Congressional Democrats cannot
successfully insist on a new Vice
President who would renounce his
chances for 1976, the field then
becomes rather vast. Two of the
most-frequently mentioned names
have been former Texas Governor
and Treasury Secretary John
Connally and New York Governor
Nelson Rockefeller.

Shocking letter
The shocking announcement came at 2:0S p.m.
yesterday as a hand-delivered letter to Secretary of
State Henry Kissinger announced the Vice
President’s resignation. A similar letter to President
Nixon was delivered minutes later, but the White
House announced that Mr. Agnew had informed the
President of his decision to quit in a conversation in
the Oval Office Tuesday night. Less than an hour
later, Mr. Agnew pleaded no contest to the tax
evasion charge, which fudge Hoffman said he
considered the "equivalent of an admission of guilt.”
Attorney General Elliot Richardson appeared in
the Baltimore courtroom to announce that the
Justice department had recommended Mr. Agnew
not be imprisoned on the grounds that his
resignation and tax charge conviction served as
sufficient punishment. It appeared that Mr. Agnew
had engaged -in plea bargaining with the Justice
Department, exchanging his resignation and
no-contest plea for a recommendation of leniency
and the dropping of'any pending charges of bribery
and extortion relating to his tenure as Maryland
Governor and Baltimore County Executive. Mr.
Agnew’s lawyers said he had agreed to plead no
contest in order to spare the nation the agony of a
trial that could have continued for years.

Leniency recommended
Attorney General Richardson later announced
that there was evidence of “substantial cash
payments” to Mr. Agnew from Maryland contractors
“as recently as last December.” This was the first
substantiated charge that Mr. Agnew received any
kickbacks while he was Vice President. Explaining
why the Justice Department decided against seeking
indictments against Mr. Agnew for bribery and
extortion, although there was evidence to support
these charges, Mr. Richardson said to do so “would
have been likely to inflict upon the nation serious
and permanent scars.” He added that the case
“would have consumed not simply months, but
years.”

Vice President’s sentence include unsupervised

Cob payments
In his statement to the court in Baltimore, Mr.

Agnew said his decision to plead no-contest on the
tax evasioh charge was made because he believed
“the public interest requires swift disposition of the
problems that are facing me.” Mentioning he had
been advised that his case could drag on for years,
Mr. Agnew said “the intense media interest in the
case would distract public attention from important
national problems to the country’s detriment.”
In his statement to Judge Hoffman, Mr. Agnew
conceded: “1 did receive payments during the year
1967 which were not expended for political
purposes and that, therefore, these payments were
income taxable to me in that year and that I so
knew.” He also admitted that he awarded
engineering contracts in Maryland to individuals who
had made political contributions to his campaign,
and that “I was aware of such awards.” He denied,
however, that these contributions had ever
influenced his actions as a public official. The Justice
Department', however, as part of the plea bargaining
which resulted in Mr. Agnew’s resignation, made
public 40 pages of evidence in the case; the evidence
is expected to support Mr. Richardson’s assertions
that Mr. Agnew had received “substantial cash
payments” as recently as last December.

Capitol bombshell
It was reported that Mr. Agnew filed a false
income tax return in 1967, claiming an income of
$26,099 and taxes of $6416, while his income was
actually $55,599, carrying taxes of $19,967.
Outside the Baltimore courtroom, Mr. Agnew
told newsmen: “1 categorically and flatly deny their
[the prosecutors] assertions of bribery and extortion
(Mi my part.” Mentioning that it would be “against
the national interest to go through a long struggle on
this matter,” the former Vice President added: “I
will address the nation in a few days.” President
Nixon said Mr. Agnew’s decision for reflecting
concern over the national interest, and expressed
hope that the country would extend “compassion
and understanding” to Mr. Agnew and his family.

The announcement hit Capitol Hill like a
bombshell, and immediately ignited speculation as to
who the new Vice President would be. Under the
25th Amendment to the Constitution, ratified in
1967 to-v insure Presidential succession. President
Nixon must choose a nominee for the Vice
Presidency who is subject to confirmation by a
majority vote of both houses of Congress.

New York Governor Nelson Rockefeller, California
Governor Ronald Reagen, domestic advisor Melvin

political circles. [See News Analysis.]
Democratic leaders said yesterday that they
might insist on a nominee who would pledge not to
run for President in 1976. Senator Henry Jackson
(D., Wash.) said Congress would reject a Presidential
nominee which indicated “pure and blatant
partisanship.” Democrats in recent weeks have
spoken of attaching a rider to any acceptance
measure that a successor renounce any Presidential
candidacy for 1976. One official claimed they would

Amherst land sale
in the final stages
by bn DeWaal
Campus Editor

Despite
confusing
and
inaccurate reports in the, Buffalo
media, it appears that little is
standing in the way of the
proposed sale of 505 acres of
Amherst land owned by the
Faculty-Student
Association
(FSA) to the Urban Development
-

Corporation (UDC).

“Frankly, I think it’s all a lot
of talk,” said Amherst Town
Assessor
Arthur L. Graham,
referring to protests on the part of
Amherst Town officials against
the UDC purchase. “I would
rather see controlled growth than
haphazard
development.”
Audubon, the UDC development
corporation which is supervising
development of the new town in
Amherst with the same name,
would also eventually control
development of the FSA land to
the north.
This position was echoed by
University assistant vice president
Charles Balkin, a former secretary
of FSA, who stated: “It serves
nobody any purpose not to go
through with it.” Mr. Balkin
noted, however, that there might
be reasons for Amherst officials to
object to the sale. Since UDC is a
state corporation, “when it takes

over, there will be no more

taxes,” stated Mr. Balkin.
However, a previous contract
between the Town of Amherst
and UDC protects the town from
such tax loss. The contract
provides that the state and UDC
must continue to pay taxes on
UDC lands for at least six years.
The controversy arose early
last Thursday when Amherst
Town Supervisor Allen E.
Dekdebraun was informed by
Audubon officials that secret
negotiations between FSA and
UDC had been taking place and
the sale of the SOS acres was
about to be finalized. The
disclosure came when Audubon
officials were told on Wednesday
that the story would appear in
The Spectrum that Friday, Oct. S.
The story was then leaked to local
papers by Audubon.
Mr. Dekdebraun expressed
dismay that he had been kept in
the dark about the negotiations
and took immediateaction to halt
the closing of the sale, including
pleas to Gov. Rockefeller for
intervention, UDC later agreed
not to finalize the sale until UDC
president and chief executive
officer Edward J. Logue could
come to Amherst and meet with
the Town officials. This should
not delay final action on the sale,

Campus Editor

Only slightly more than half the undergraduates
are satisfied with the present ABCDF grading
system, according to results from last week’s Student
Association (SA) referendum.
The tallies showed that a large percentage of
students objected to measuring academic
achievement exclusively with mere letter marks. One
student observed that “grades are inadequate
approximations based on external standards which

measure competitive performance, not learning.”
However,, it is difficult to interpret preferences
other than ABCDF because the figures are about
equally distributed between the alternatives of
plus-minus or pass-fail honors; and one-quarter of
the voters simply chose “another system.”
Apparently students who are not happy with the
present system are clearly divided as to a suitable
alternative; the 25% who preferred “another system”
to ABCDF were not even sure what a viable
alternative might be..
Bart of the ambiguity in the results may be
attributed to the questions themselves. If questions I
and 2 had been combined to read: “Do you prefer
the present format, plus-minus, pass-honors-fail, or
another system?”, perhaps the numbers would have
been more clearly defined; and students who
approved ABCDF would not have confounded the
results by also choosing an alternative system.
v '
Prefer written evaluations
By an overwhelming majority, students voted
4-to-l and 2-to-l in favor of self-evaluation and
mandatory written evaluations, respectively. Four
out of five voters favored personally expressing what
they derived from a course, through self-evaluation.
Two of three supported mandatory written
evaluations from the professor, elaborating his

opinion of the student in explicit, written terms.
These combined results indicate a strong feeling that
letter grades alone are inadequate.
One observer noted that it would be very
difficult for professors to write accurate evaluations
of students in large lecture classes, where grades are
usually based on objective examinations. However,
as SA Academic Affairs Coordinator Bob Kole
indicated, evaluations could be required in upper
level courses in a student’s major, where classes
usually consist of no more than 35 people.
The other important issue covered in the
referendum concerned funding the Western New
York Public Interest Research Group (WNYPIRG).
The figures illustrated conclusively that students are
against increasing the mandatory student fee by $3
to fund WNYPIRG; but support by 3-to-l a
re-ordering of SA priorities to fund the consumer
research group from within its existing budget.
Where’s the money?
SA is now faced with the dilemma of finding
money for WNYPIRG from within its budget. SA
President Jon Dandes said the Student Assembly
promised money to various clubs and organizations
last May, and five months of programming and
planning has elapsed since then. It would be very
difficult to justify cutting one group’s budget at this
time in order to allocate enough money (about
$20,000) for WNYPIRG to join state-wide NYPIRG,
Mr. Dandes indicated.
Stating that “it would be more appropriate to
talk about joining NYPIRG next year,’’ Mr. Dandes
said: “By that time, WNYPIRG will be ready to
present a budget and everyone will be given an equal
chance at the hearings.’’ He added that SA “could
scrounge up enough money to keep WNYPIRG
operating on a local level” for die remainder of this
year. •

Amherst buses

Inconvenient scheduling
Students living on the Amherst Campus are
being inconvenienced on Sundays as a result of the
Housing Office’s decision to run one bus an hour
between campuses instead of two.
Dewey Bush, assistant director of Housing, said
the decision was based on an analysis of “customer
counts,” or the number of passengers per bus during
the last three weeks. Although an average of 25
people ride each bus during the week, the average
drastically drops to 8.5 persons per bus on Sundays,

the way the schedule is set up, they usually arrive at
classes either half an hour early or a half hour late.

adequate.”

Because the coach vehicles presently in use have
a capacity of 78 and only an average of 44 people
ride them after 5 p.m., Housing has also decided to
use school buses after five. Housing feels it cannot
justify the use oif a coach when a school bus will
suffice, Mr. Bush explained.
Lack of passengers
IRC President Arthur Gordon said that
“statistics demonstrated that the heed [for the larger
vehicles] was not there” and agreed with Housing’s
decision. Both Mr. Bush and Mr. Gordon pointed out
that the lack of passengers was also responsible for
the termination of nighttime bus service between
Amherst and Ridge Lea. An average of only 1.9
people rode that bus at night.
Realizing this would inconvenience a few
people, Mr. Gordon said: “You can’t satisfy
everyone all the time.” The new schedule, he added,
“has established an equilibriun and is the best
possible service they could provide with the money
they have.”

Others have indicated that the bus leaves the Main
Campus ten to the hour, the same time classes end.
This means they must wait 30 minutes for the next
bus. A former Allenhurst resident added: “Last year
there were three buses an hour to Allenhurst, where
only 575 people lived and no classes, yet now there’s
a campus six miles away with classes and 800
residents. Something is wrong, man."
One problem Housing had to contend with,
according to Mr. Bush, was a smaller allocation of
money than had been expected, but refused to
elaborate about specific amounts of money because
it was “outside of his authority” to do so. However,
an IRC official indicated that only $200,000 had
been received from an expected $263,000.
A subsequent request for an additional $40,000
was denied. “If a problem exists, it is in the state,”
said Mr. Gordon. “It’s not within the University
[because] Housing has done a great job,” he
asserted. Mr. Gordon noted the state’s refusal to
install kitchenettes on the new campus at a ratio of
one unit for every 32 students even though such
space was provided.

When police in Chicago, Los Angeles, San

controversial “sick comic” was persecuted, hunted

Respectability

Now, of course, Bruce has become respectable
and it is only fitting that his memory be honored
a college
with the ultimate mark of respectability
course devoted to his life and work. It’s probably
been done before. Some Bruce freak starts a course
somewhere and the graven image is set up for
worship. Rob Peters, who teaches ‘The Life and Wit
of Lenny Bruce” hopes to “get away from that
folk-hero veneer.”
College E offers the course (COE 417,
registration number 000602), which meets Monday
and Wednesday evenings in MacDonald Hall
basement. The course is still open. Mr. Peters said
the course is designed to present Bruce’s material
analytically, discussing Bruce’s different roles as
social critic, societal shaman and satirist.
Mr. Peters is fascinated by the environment that
produced Lenny Bruce a show business, burlesque,
19S0’s jazz culture and growing up Jewish in
Brooklyn in the ’20‘s and ’30’s. He hopes to bring
other topics into the discussion of Bruce’s work,
topics like the uses of slang and pornography in
humor, the effects of obscenity rulings on free
speech and art, burlesque and its influence and the
-

nature of satire.

Seminal influence
Mr. Peters considers Bruce a “seiminal
influence” on performing humor. The rambling,
raunchy style of the typical AM radio rock disc
jockey
even if it is poor humor
is the result of
Bruce’s work.
The course will involve written projects and an
oral presentation. Mr. Peters said no one can really
understand the work of a stand-up comic without
standing up and doing comedy. Those top bashful to
fulfill the requirement will be allowed to substitute
some written humor.'
But Mr. .Peters is “disappointed” with one

“We’re moving the college to
wherever the students are
working,” said James W. Hall,
President of the rapidly-expanding
Empire State College. Unique in
comparison to any other SUNY
school. Empire State College was
created as an alternative approach
to higher education.
The College’s four main
learning centers are located in
New York City, Long Island,
Albany and
Rochester. Two
additional “convenience” centers
are being planned for Buffalo and
Binghamton,
said Dr. Hall.
Smaller “learning units” are
situated at Westchester,
Plattsburg, Utica and New Paltz.
Once admitted, students are
assigned a faculty “mentor” who
assists them in planning their
curriculum. Ms. Hasso said;
“There is no hiding at a college
like this. The students map out a
specific contract for a certain
amount of time, work and
credit.”
Students can take courses at
widespread locations. “Many
mentors have connections in
foreign countries with whom
students can work,” Ms. Hasso
explained. “We even have a
learning
unit in London.”
Commenting on a student who
studied European History and
Psychology in Beirut, she said he
dropped out of a “traditional”
college before coming to Empire
State. He is now working towards
his masters degree at the
University of California. ■

Student gunman arrested
A 26-year old undergraduate student
carrying a loaded gun and allegedly intoxicated
was arrested by Campus Security in the Norton
Hall Conference Theater Sunda/ night.
Responding to the call of SA President Jon
Dandes, who noticed the gun on the indivdual’s
hip as he removed his coat, several Campus
Security officers grabbed the individual, seized
his gun and unloaded it. He was then arrested,
just prior to the Conference Theater showing of
The Godfather.
Witnesses said the student was inebriated and
“acting irrational,” according to Security. The
student has been charged with public
intoxication, but according to Lee Griffin,
assistant director of Security, a weapons charge is
doubtful. Apparently, the student is a
summertime employee of the Buffalo Parks
Department and, according to Mr. Griffin, if he is
still on the payroll, “he has full police officer
powers.” In addition, Mr. Griffin said the gun
appears to be an issued weapon, but this has not

the full $20,000 necessary to join NYPIRG.
Co-chairman Michele Smith, who has been fighting
to obtain funds for WNYPIRG since last spring,
conceded that “the referendum is not binding,
nothing has been changed.”

However, she emphasisjed that “WNYPIRG will
do everything in its power to satisfy the students’
wishes, which we feel are to join NYPIRG.” Ms.
Smith believes “WNYPIRG has the support of the
Student Assembly in securing necessary funds.”

Israel counter-attacked on two fronts Tuesday as its reinforced
units pushed Egyptian and Syrian troops back toward the cease-fire
lines.
Preceded by Israeli air attacks against airfields, missile bases and
other targets deep inside Egypt and Syria, the counter-offensive marked
the successful 48-hour mobilization of Israeli forces. According to U.N.
observers, Egypt and Syria attacked Israel simultaneously on two fronts
early Saturday, causing a rapid military build-up on Yom Kippur, the
holiest day of the Jewish year.
Egypt and Syria had made initial gains across the cease-fire lines set
after the 1967 six-day war. But Israeli strategy has been to concede
initial Arab gains, mobilize quickly, and use tactical air support and
ground troops to surround and push back enemy forces. This is exactly
what Israel has done, and by mid-Tuesday an Israeli spokesman
reported that 90 Egyptian and Syrian aircraft had been downed,
including a dozen troop-carrying helicopters.

information was unattainable on Monday as the
Parks Department was closed for the Columbus
Day holiday. The Buffalo Police Department is
now in possession of the gun and the case in now
under their jurisdiction.
This incident occurred at a time when the
question of arming Campus Security has evolved
into a full-scale controversy. Some have therefore
questioned whether or not this incident was a
setup in order to dramatize the need for an
armed Security force. However, no evidence has
been established to support such a thesis. When
asked if such an incident seemed unusual amid
the controversy about arming Security, one
Security officer remarked: “It happens fifty
times if it happens once a year.”

coordinating a permanent professional staff to direct

In addition, Debbie Benson, Tyrone Saunders,
and Paul Kade were elected as representatives to
both Student Association of the State University
(SASU) and State University Student Assembly
(SUSA). Also, Michael Phillips was elected to fill the
fourth available SASU position.
Only 1700 students out of a possible 12,000
voted in this referendum. The low turnout of
undergraduate students once again leads many to
question the purpose and validity of referendums in
general. Referendums have never been binding; its
only power is that of public opinion. But if more
students were concerned with making their voices
heard on important issues, SA would give more
serious consideration to referendum results. Until
that time, referendums will remain mere formalities,
all too easy to overlook.

The UUAB Film Committee in association with
The Small Animat Administration is pleased to present

Resistance high
Despite conflicting military reports, it appeared Israel had been
largely successful in repelling initial Arab gains and driving them back
toward the cease-fire lines. But the fighting and casualties were heavy,
resistance was high, and many signs point to many more days of
protracted fighting. Meanwhile, in the first raid on a populous area,
Israeli jets attacked the Mediterranean end of the Suez Canal and
unleashed bombs on POrt Said, a city of about 180,000. Egypt
reported civilian casualities and homes destroyed; an Israeli
communique said the attack was aimed at military bases and missile
sites around Port SAid, mentioning no attack on the city itself.
Fighting was particularly intense in the Golan heights, where Syria
amassed a force of 800 tanks and had driven three wedges into Israeli
territory. Egypt reported that its troops had raided the Israeli-occupied
Egyptian oil fields on the Gulf of Suez and set large fires. Egypt also
claimed to have “liberated” El Qantara, a city halfway down the Suez
Canal from Port Said.

Taking the offensive
Israel is determined to “break and destroy” the Syrian -apd
Egyptian forces, Lieut. Gen. David Elazar, the Israeli Chief of Staff,
said at a news conference. Asked if an Israeli offensive would carry
beyond the 1967 cease-fire lines, the general replied: “I have to remind
you that the cease-fire lines are not marked in the terrain.” he added;
“We are attacking the enemy wherever it is necessary. And we shall
destroy them wherever possible.”
It is difficult to obtain independent verification of conflicting
military reports since correspondents are not allowed in the area. But it
appears the critical moment for Israel in the fourth Middle East war
came when their rapid mobilization enabled them to shift from the
defensive to the offensive and begin repelling Arab gains. Meanwhile,
American officials indicated that the Soviet Union shared American
desires that the Middle East conflict be containe; and ended quickly.
President Nixon and Soviet leader Leonid Brezhnev exchanged
messages through diplomatic channels, the White House disclosed.
Secretary of State Kissinger has also been in contact with the Soviets,
the Israelis and the Arabs in diplomatic efforts to stop the fighting.
And the Senate passed a cease-fire resolution calling for a return of
Israeli and Arab forces to the positions they occupied before the
outbreak of war on Saturday.

�DITORI
Polling power

L.

Unlike a state or national referendum, where the results
translate into immediate approval of a bill or proposal, a
referendum on this campus can be all too easily ignored.
Since only a fraction of the students bother to vote in them,
they are frequently dismissed as "unrepresentative." Since
they are not binding, campus referendums are actually more
that is, they are a rough
analagous to a Harris Poll
indication of public opinion.
No one would contend that referendums are as
statistically accurate as random sampling, since they are
biased in the direction of those who bother to vote. But
when students voted 4-to-1 against the arming of Campus
Security last year, even though that ratio might have been
inflated, it's safe to assume that a majority of students
oppose arming. In short, despite their faults and
shortcomings, referendums do provide the best, if
approximate, indication of the feelings of a diverse body of
12,000 undergraduates.
On the issue of the funding of WNYPIRG, the results of
last week's SA referendum are quite clear. By a 4-to-1
margin, students vetoed raising the mandatory student fee by
$3 in order to fund WNYPIRG. But three out of four
students called upon Student Association to re-order its

WNYPIRG.

But as with any situation where allocation of money is
involved, now comes the politics. Finding $15,000 or
$20,000 for WNYPIRG wilt necessitate siphoning money
from other club budgets. This is going to require some
give-and-take from the club members whose budgets will
suffer. In a Student Assembly comprised of interest groups,
conflicting self-interest could welt stymie the attempt to find
that money. Trying to spread out the cuts as thinly as
possible so as to minimize their effect on any one
organization would be the fairest, and most politically viable,
route. We're sure a close scrutinizing look at the inflated
athletic budget (team travel expenses in particular), whose
varsity programs benefit a relative few, could yield a few
thousand.
White clubs cater to special interests, everyone is a
consumer, and WNYPIRG will therefore benefit everybody,
directly or indirectly. But when politics complicate the
attempt to fund WNYPIRG, both the Student Assembly and
SA executive committee should remember one thing: the
students have mandated that they want WNYPIRG funded.
Re-ordering priorities is never easy; but three out of four
undergrads have asked SA to do it.
In the area of grading, the voting results are more
ambiguous. Students were not only clearly divided on
whether the present ABCDF system is acceptable, but were
evenly split on possible alternatives. The plus-minus and
pass-fail-honors options each received some support, while
25% chose "another system." In the absence of any clear-cut
preferences, we urge that much-needed research be done into
graduate school acceptance criteria. Such research would be
invaluable to all those seeking "post-graduate studies, in
determining how much weight various grad schools assign to
scores,
board
grade-point
average,
transcripts,recommendations and the like.
We believe many students shied away from the
pass-fail-honors option because they felt it would be
competitively unfeasible; but there is a pitiful lack of hard
facts in this area. One definite feeling emerged, however:
The
students are dissatisfied with letter grades alone
overwhelming endorsement of self-evaluation and mandatory
written evaluations indicate that students realize that an A or
a B is only an approximate, inadequate label. While it has
been noted that written evaluations would be unworkable in
large lecture classes, they are both quite possible and sorely
needed in the upper level courses in a student's major.
We urge that the Faculty-Senate and other appropriate
bodies begin an investigation immediately into the feasibility
of rpandatory written evaluations by the instructor in upper
level major courses. These are the courses grad schools are
most interested in, and a comprehensive written assessment
would heavily compensate for arbitrary cut-offs and grading
curves. It might also foster closer contact betweenprofessors
who know they must make indiwiduatevaluations and their
students. Besides, it is about time this University offered a
more realistic and comprehensive evaluation of its highly
individualistic students than simply stamping them A,B or C.
Written evaluations would be a start.

obsessed with what is happening to the young.
Suddenly all those books I have accumulated on
shelves
ever since the Free Speech Movement in
my
Berkeley in 1964 on the militants and radicals, on
violence as a form of protest, on campus disruptions,
on smashed computers, kidnapped administrators
and convulsed classrooms, on whether the
generations are natural enemies look yellowed and
archaic. What dim prehistoric past were their authors
writing about?
Everything happens terribly fast in our society;
Even the slowing downs take place fast. We use up
our movements, heroes, villains, shocks, causes

they were kindling wood in a sharp breeze on a

and the next fall you came back and it was no longer
the same campus. You didn’t recognize it.
Here in George McGovern country, where Reid
Buckley and I have been debating at the University
of South Dakota about where the blame for
Watergate belongs, you do recognize many features
of the pre-Berkeley campuses. In fact, the thing to
remember is that the fires of those seven flaming
years of campus violence, from 1964 to 1971,
savaged the Ivy League and multiversity battle
grounds but left heartland America less affected. It
follows that the decelerations, which have been so
sharp at Harvard, Yale, Cornell, Berkeley, Stanford,
Brandeis, are less marked at Bermilion. Where there
was less changed, there is less to change back.
But that doesn’t mean there is a young apathy
rampant in the country. We expected a sizable
student turnout for our Watergate discussion: What
we got was something close to a mob scene, at a time
when Sam Ervin’s own show in Washington was
languishing. Some recent visits during the opening
weeks of other colleges, in Florida and Pennsylvania,
bear out my impression that campuses are far from
somnolent.

wane, but alcohol is moving in as a problem (on
some campuses alcohol has all along been the
problem, even when drugs were on the increase).
Religion is back, both in the form of the New
Primitives, a kind of resurrected fundamentalism,
but also of new efforts to give content to
institutional church forms.
The all-purpose jeans are of course dominant, as
a unisex uniform, but dresses are coming back for
girls, and legs are showing again. There is talk about
fraternities being back, which would trouble me if it
proves true: They were always the dreariest element
of college life. It is also hard to dragoon students
(even as freshmen and sophomores) to live in
dormitories, even with new parietal rules. They have
tasted the new sexual freedoms and want to live off
cim pus, to the dismay of administrators who need
student rents to pay off those construction loans.

There, is great interest in teaching, as the job
openings for teachers dwindle. There is resentment
against the deadwood professors whom the
educational ferment hasn’t yet reached. Any young
teacher with some sparks of fire in his belly gets an
eager following of students. There is a sharp increase
in students wanting to go to law, medical and
architectural schools, not to hang out a shingle and
get rich but to make a living and a life, and do
something for social health.
Career orientation is back, as dating is back, too,
and the dream of a home, mostly (although not
necessarily) with marriage, and of children (two or
three, not more). The women’s movement has
caught on everywhere, but not in its more absurd
forms. On coed campuses, girls arc moving in as
student leaders, and they outorganize as well as
outcharm the boys.
A speaker gets his best response talking about a
realistic approach to power, welfare, technology,
bureaucracies and, especially, values. Liberalism is by
no means dead, even here after the disillusioning
McGovern disaster of 1972. Nor has Watergate
doomed the public service career, although it has
dimmed it. Jeb Magruder tells the young not to go
into politics, but since when has Jeb Magruder been

Activities attempted

Dear Mom,

To the Editor:
Bob Stemfield’s letter in the 9/24/73 issue of
The Spectrum, listing the need for activities and
recreational facilities at the North Campus deserves a
response from the Athletic Department. We are well
aware of this situation and are attempting to service
the students who live in the North Campus residence
halls.
This year, beginning in November, we have
secured the use of Sweet Home High School and its
three gyms two nights a week. This is a very
excellent facility which we used one night a week
last year. Our students conducted themselves very
appreciatively out there last year, which is largely
the reason we were able to get the second night at
Sweet Home this year. Mr. Monkarsh plans an
intramural league of North Campus students who
will come at assigned times at this facility.
Additionally, three or four swim sessions at the
Sweet Home facility are possibilities, and we are
presently planning on bringing the athletic program
closer to the North Campus by staging an
intercollegiate wrestling match at Sweet Home in
February.

There are some rather well developed field areas
across Millersport (behind the band building), and
students on the North Campus are invited to use
these. They belong to the University. Intramural
softball and touch football leagues, exclusively for
North Campus residents, are being planned.
Through the cooperation of Mr. Telfer and the
residence hall people, arrangements are being
completed to establish a recreational storage area at
the North Campus for intramural storage and as a
headquarters for the program.
Unfortunately, the move to the North Campus
comes at a time when the intramural-recreation
budgets have been necessarily reduced from the
requested amount and held to approximately last
year’s level. We are somewhat handicapped in doing
all that we would like to do.
North Campus residents are asked to contact
Mr, Monkarsh, , director of Intramurals and
Recreatipn Service, concerning the program and
facilities for North Campus students. Mr. Monkarsh
plans to meet regularly with representatives of North
Campus students.

As you know, the sit-in was staged to protest
the selective arming of Campus Security. About 40
students, occupied Ketter’s office Wednesday
afternoon and Larry went down to cover the story. I
had to run over with a press card for him in case he
got arrested. Unfortunately, none of us were so
lucky.
When 1 got there I had to pick my way across
Campus Security guards, Buffalo newsmen, TV
cameras, extension cords, University administrators
and other machines. Bob Kole, in the standard
student uniform
faded jeans and a light blue
denim work shirt
was playing mediator for the
cameras.
Larry filled me in on all the gory details. Ron
Stein had just left after communicating Ketter’s
threat to have them all arrested and the leaders (sic)
argued over a compromise to keep from getting
now get this
“causing the
arrested and
leadership to die.” Kole said the administration
would agree to meet with 12 chosen apostles if the
rest of the crowd would sit-in in the waiting room to
“preserve the sanctity of the office.”
While the students argued over the proposal,
Dave Saleh came in very earnestly and repeated
everything that Kole had said. This, apparently, set
the pattern of his behavior for the rest of the “riot.”
Eventually, the students decided to accept the deal
and picked 12 representatives. Needless to say, given
the ideological predelictions of the so-called leaders,
they were not from all 12 tribes.
As I’ve told you before, the opposition to
arming the campus cops comes from a wide
ideological spectrum and the leaders of the sit-in
came close to blowing the coalition to bits. We all
went up to 290 Hayes while I made profound and
clever remarks to the various newsmen hoping they
would quote me on the 6 o’clock news. They didn’t,

While we waited for Ketter, I turned on the fan,
figuring things would get hot enough. Meanwhile,
out of sight and earshot of the major part of their
supporters, the delegation proceeded to re-argue
whether they should present themselves as a united
front of students opposed to arming or as a coalition
of leftist groups. You may think the question is
absurd, but one’s perspective gets a bit warped after

Last week was really eventful for me. Sunday, I
saw Deep Throat, Tuesday, 1 hit President Ketter in
the face with a cream pie, and Wednesday, I
witnessed my very first sit-in. For someone whose
protests against the established order of things was
restricted to scurrilous cartoons in a high school
underground newspaper, the sit-in was a real
education and one hell of a lot of laughs.
If you’re worried about a revolution
don’t. These
overthrowing the government
schmucks couldn’t organize a picnic, let alone a

trying to provoke a worker’s revolution from a
student union. We both know what would happen if
they tried anything in a factory.
The group elected a chairwoman, a girl from my
art class who can’t draw worth a damn, and hashed
over whether to oppose arming or come on like
revolutionaries. Eventually cooler heads prevailed
and they decided to stick to their original intention.
Larry and I watched one representative who we were
sure would blow the whole thing.
I went out to go to the bathroom (Dean Ebert
was kind enough to direct me to it
some
revolution!) and when I returned, the newsmen
outside 290 were discussing something intently. As I
drew closer, I heard them talking not about the
sit-in, but about the busting of Deep Throat.
Then Kctter came into the room, followed by
nearly a dozen newsmen and cameras. The students
put their hands in front of their faces and demanded
that the cameras be removed because “the films can
be subpoenaed in a court of law and used against
us.” By now, of course, they had had their pictures
taken innumerable times. In fact, a Security officer
was snapping pictures with an empty camera just to
see their reactions.
Some of the students demanded that the other
people who accompanied Ketter must go. They
included Vice President Somit, who is in charge of
Campus Security; Dean Hull, who chaired the
committees dealing with the question of arming the
officers; Ketter’s lawyer, and Vice President
Siggelkow, who is in charge of student affairs, which
this affair certainly was.
Through force rather than logic, Ketter managed
to get them to agree that maybe these people
belonged there. Siggelkow, diplomat that he tries to
be, left so the students could save face and took the
cameras with him.
As you can well imagine, the meeting was a
joke. The students had decided to ask Ketter for a
categorical guarantee that there would be no arming
and, if he refused to give it, walk out. In the
confusion of the meeting, they almost forgot to ask
him if he would arm Campus Security before they
walked out and only when Larry and I told Kole to
raise the question was it asked.
Saleh played much the same role in 290 that he
played in Ketter’s office, repeating what everyone
said. Here it was worse because no one said anything
worth repeating.
After the meeting with the 12 broke up, the
students in Ketter’s waiting room left for the night.
They were back marching around the campus the
next day, but by then, the excitement was over.
The farce wasn’t even good theater. Normally, 1
would seize upon it for a column, but I’m not sure
even I can get some real humor out of it
it’s just
too pathetic.
It did have one good effect. I always wondered
what I would do if the days of student protest ever
came back. Now I know I’d laugh.

�Editor's note: Due to typographical errors,
the holiday weekend and the importance of
this issue, we are reprinting the editorial on
the arming of Campus Security from Friday's
The Spectrum.
„

Editorial
No gons-and the consequences
The arming of Campus Security is such
an emotional issue that both sides have been
long on frenzied rhetoric and short on
rational facts. The rightists view arming
Security as a panacea against crime, and the
leftists see arming as an instrument of
political repression engineered by Dr. Ketter.
Both are dead wrong.
We oppose the arming of Campus
Security, selective or otherwise. The Student
Assembly's repeated opposition
the
despicable fact that students on the
committee which recommended arming
the fact that the
rarely attended
committee itself was split
and last year's
referendum vote of 4-to-1 against arming
clearly indicates that students don't want
guns on campus. We agree. The potential
danger of introducing guns far outweighs any
possible benefits.
Selectively arming two officers per shift
to patrol three campuses would be less than
effective; Security admits arming would not
be any deterrent against crime. Instead,
assistant director Lee Griffin says armed
officers would have the "peace of mind" that
"in any dangerous situation, they have a
50-50 chance of coming out." However, as
they have up to now, unarmed officers must
try to avoid direct confrontations with armed
opponents, whereas introducing a second gun
would exacerbate any confrontation and
probably lead to gunfire. If an officer is
unarmed, there is little reason for an
opponent to fire and add armed assault to his
crime; if an officer draws a gun, the
opponent knows he's going to use it. This
will lead to gunfire and possible injury to
student bystanders.
Additionally, many of the Hull
committee's recommendations are now
outdated. In the last two years. Campus
Security has reduced campus crime by 38%,
raised morale, instituted a requirement of
two years of college for officers, and won the
respect of many students all without guns.
In any given year since 1970, no more than
eight incidents of armed persons on campus
have been recorded, so armed confrontation
is infrequent
so infrequent that it cannot
justify the exacerbating and Big Brother
influence that armed plainclothesmen on
campus would bring. Even in dangerous
situations, would giving Security guns place
their lives in less jeopardy? Probably not.
Despite all this, there are hard facts
which cannot be ignored. There is crime on
campus. The University is no ivory tower; it's
a Buffalo community, and what other
community has an unarmed police force? It
is unreasonable to expect unarmed officers to
go into dangerous situations. ''If we're to
have total law enforcement responsibility, we
must be equipped for that task," said Mr.
Griffin. "If not, our role must be re-defined."
—

—

—

His re-definition for an unarmed Security
force would be to remove dangerous
situations.from their area of responsibility.
And this is the crucial question one which
anti-arming radicals have totally failed to
consider: If Security is not armed, who will
handle dangerous situations and armed
confrontations?
Alternative tactics may be of some value.
Security's dogs were originally designed for
danger, but they are unsuitable in crowded
situations (and so are guns); and neither
students nor Security wants the dogs
patrolling the dorms and the Union. Other
non-lethal weapons, such as tear gas, could be
useful, but again in a limited number of
situations. Calling in the Buffalo Police is a
highly undesirable alternative, because of the
time delay and because the city cops have
little sense of student problems and
situations, as Campus Security does.
Finally, there is the option of Security
agents simply refusing to respond • to
dangerous calls. They have frequently
disarmed persons with knives, but would be
totally justified in avoiding confronting
opponents with guns. Non-intervention might
minimize physical danger while accepting
property loss in burglaries, but would leave
the victims of violent crimes tike assaults and
rapes
completely
defenseless.
Overly-paranoid anti-arming students have
not dealt with this problem.
We oppose any form of arming. The
dangers of guns on campus far outweigh the
possible benefits. But if we accept an
unarmed Security force, we must be aware of
the consequences. Those consequences would
be either seeing the Buffalo Police on this
campus or virtually no protection for
students against violent crimes.
Although the Hull committee researched
this problem and decided the only workable
compromise was selectively arming two
highly-trained officers per shift (with more
stringent training requirements than the city
or state police), we urge more research into
non-lethal tactics which Security could apply
in dangerous situations. This is the only
middle road between the detrimental
influence of guns and a total lack of
protection. If we don't want guns, we may
have to accept dogs patrolling the dorms, tear
gas, or other distasteful alternatives. But
these hard choices must be made if we want
any kind of protection on this campus. A
liberal who is assaulted very quickly becomes
a conservative.
Those opposed to arming have now
voiced their concern, but future takeovers of
Dr. Ketter's office will not solve the problem.
Hard decisions are in order. It is not enough
to simply oppose arming. We must weigh the
alternatives and find a solution if we want
both no guns and a safe campus.

President Ketter has decided that Campus

’

implement this program, that is, the intent to which
he has or has not consulted the University
community about this issue, nevertheless, realizing

the present circumstances, 1 fundamentally accept
the manner and extent of armament he has proposed
as stated in the guidelines (published in the

Reporter).

****

Three viewpoints lend support to the current
armament proposals for three separate reasons: The
conservatives might simply maintain that the nature
and frequency of particular crimes justifies selective
arming of specific officers; a liberal viewpoint might
reflect the idea that by minimizing the opportunity
for external control and maximizing the amount of
internal policing we, the UB community, would
decrease potential hassles in the long run. Kent
State, Jackson State and Southern University were
all examples of inappropriate external control.
Finally, a radical might not accept either of the
aforementioned reasons for arms. He/she might,
however, be willing to accept this limited proposal
(even though ideally he/she doesn’t endorse any
arming of security at all), since the alternative, again
looking ahead a bit, could be far more drastic.
I am referring to the rumor of a bill in the NYS
legislature (supported by the union which represents
Campus Security) that would empower campus
police, while on duty, with the same authority that
all police officers have. In other words, rather than
having only two well trained officers per shift armed
(and President Ketter currently retains the privilege
to rescind these officer’s authority to bear arms),
instead all the security officers would be allowed to
carry pistols.

In conclusion, I confess that I am far from
enthusiastic about even selective arming of campus
security officers but given the circumstances (i.e.,
the radical point in particular and to some extent the
other two viewpoints as well) I will publicly endorse
the streamlined proposal as endorsed in the

guidelines.

�To arm, or not to arm?
by Larry Kraftowitz
Campus Editor
Exactly seven days after a coalition of students
occupied the office of President Robert Ketter, the
selective arming controversy continues to gather
momentum and threatens to shatter the silence that
has prevailed on campus since Spring, 1970.
The mere presence of guns on campus will
inevitably lead to violence, contend many of those
opposed to the arming of Campus Security. Unable
to dissassociate lethal weapons from the tragedies of
Kent State, Jackson State and Southern University,
they feat arming will be the initial step in a campaign
to politically suppress student groups who oppose
the Administration’s policies.

Despite widespread and documented student
opposition (as evidenced by last year’s referendum
vote of 4-1 against arming), Dr. Ketter has argued
that in those few instances where unarmed officers
must deal with armed criminals, arming may be
justified. Although* he has yet to make a final
decision on arming, he recently said: “1 would
personally like to see, in some instances, more
people on Security have more control.”

News analysis
Although Dr. Ketter cited two past cases where
Security officers were reluctant to face lethal
threats, assistant director of Campus Security Lee
Griffin said he did “not look to justify arming by
using these past instances. It’s by the unknown, by
what lies out there that hasn’t yet occurred, that we
measure the need for arming by,” Mr. Griffin

undertaken only wider die strictest of guidelines.
Besides calling for mandatory training sessions, the
report demands that those carrying guns have a
working knowledge of the behavioral sciences and an
awareness of “the legal, ethical, and moral aspects of
the ultimate force.”
Additionally, a University Security Review
Board would review investigations ofany instance of
firearm discharge or even “display.” (Display
signifies the actual drawing of a weapon from its
holster). Despite these precautions, the crucial
question left unanswered by the guidelines is: “What
is a lethal threat?”
Sole discretion
Mr. Griffin maintained such a judgment would
depend solely upon the discretion of the armed
call for an ad-hoc
officer. “What do you do
committee while someone is being raped?” he asked.
According to one member of the Students
Against Armed Security, however, the line between
“use” and “non-use” is much too vague. Fearing that
a Security Officer might loosely interpret the
guidelines and use his gun unwisely, he said: “Our
definition of lethal threat might not be the same as
theirs.”
In a much broader perspective, Mr. Griffin
defended arming by stating that he had never heard
of a case where a campus officer had fired at a
student, despite the fact that 85% of the country’s
college campuses have armed security forces.
Responding to allegations that the mere presence of
guns bn campus could stimulate the atmosphere that
led to Kent State, he asserted that it had been
National Guardsman that fired the shots in Ohio and
not campus security officers.
-

asserted.
Interestingly, arming subcommittee chairman
MacAllister Hull has qever hesitated to use the
relatively infrequent incidence of confrontation with
armed individuals as rhe justification for arming; nor
has Executive vice-president Albert Somit. In fact, at
one point during the September 25 Open Hearing on
Selective Arming, even Mr. Griffin mentioned that a
knife had once been pulled on him.
However, many anti-arming students feel that
arming Security would only enhance the possibility
of confrontation because instead of avoiding the
dangerous situation, an officer would feel he has a
50-50 chance of “coming out.” “Futhcrmore,”
added one observer, “a gun pointed to a person in a
desperate, state is only going to increase that
desperation.”
'

First time

Because the arming subcommittee’s report
recommended the use of firearms only in those
instances where there was a “lethal threat," Security
officers would be inexperienced in situations where
guns would be required, increasing the potential for
misuse of weapons. “Anytime a gun is used will be
the first time a Security officer has used one in a
real-life situation,” one student observed.
Superfidally, the subcommittee has gone to
great lengths to ensure that arming would be

own
admission
that
the
Mr. Griffin’s
crime rate
on campus has dropped 38% in die past two years
because of the “high-level performance” of Campus
Security has also been used as an argument against
arming. Quite possibly, any trust previously placed
in Campus Security by students would be eroded if
guns were allowed. According to one student, this
trust was a decisive factor in the effective jolj done
by Security, and if it were diminished, crime might
even go up.
“We won’t pretend that arming will reduce the
crime rate,” Mr. Griffin has stated, “But it will give
Security back-up capability.”
Dedining crime rate
Looking at this statement, it is understandable
why Mr. Griffin favors arming, especially since it will
“even the odds” in the event of a confrontation.
Nevertheless, hard statistics indicate that the crime
rate has declined sharply without arms, and there
have been relatively few instances of armed
individuals on campus within the past few years.

uniformed

To the Editor:
Do students really lack interest in issues that do
not directly concern themselves? Was it a general
student apathy that accounted for the small size of
the group that protested on Thursday afternoon
(Oct. 4th) against the selective arming of the campus
security guards?
As I write this letter, I do not know how many
students participated in the demonstration, but they
passed by me as I was walking across campus (“No
Guns for Cops!! No Guns for Cops!!”) and I noted

the size of the group.
Last night (Wednesday) a few students walked
around the dorms trying to encourage others to
attend the scheduled rally. The matter of the
proposed arming of campus security interests me,
but I admit to confusion concerning its pros and
cons. An important point to consider is, of course,
why decide to arm (even selectively) campus security

now ? Why

not before now? Were iUB campus
security guards ever armed in the past? What were
the consequences of the system(s) that previously

existed?

Perhaps I am unread and uninformed, but if so,
I have lots of company. Last night I asked those
students-that came around, the questions I’ve listed
above. One of them answered me (the others said
nothing) by informing me that the students who
were involved in the campus rallys of ’68 and ’69
had recently graduated. I tried to question him
further, but the group couldn’t stay to talk to me,
because they had to keep walking around, telling
people to come to the rally.
So whatever the real situation is concerning the
arming of campus police, don’t talk about student
apathy. A lot of students just don’t know what’s
going on, even if they think they do.
than

Student patrols?
To the Editor
Friday’s The Spectrum editorial came out with a
statement against the arming of campus cops (which
is good!), but it also contained pro-cop, “Law and
order” warnings about the “consequences” of not
arming Ketter’s personal police force (which are
almost as bad as the guns themselves!).

The article

maintains “there

is

crime on

campus,” and “if security is not armed, WHO will
handle dangerous situations and armed

confrontations?”
There is an answer to crime on campus, and it
does not involve arming Ketter’s cops or calling on
city police. It involves relying on other students.
Past experience has shown that campus cops
respond very slowly (45 minutes to an hour) to calls
about rip-offs in the dorms, and dorm residents
know that they have to mobilize others on their
floor to actually stop a crime. Those of us who live
in other parts of the city know that city cops take
their good old time in responding to calls. IF
“crime” is becoming more of a problem (and
according to The Spectrum, “there have been only
two instances of violence on campus in the last two
years"), the cops certainly aren’t going to do much
about it.
We students have always had to protect
ourselves in the dorms, and now, if necessary, we can
do it in a more organized way. On campus we can
systematically share the responsibility for our own
security WITHOUT relying on “professional” cops
under Ketter’s control.
Campus cops surrounded Hayes Hall during last
Wednesday’s takeover, and plainclothes cops were
crawling all over the fountain area and Haas lounge
“protecting” us during our anti-arming rally. Despite
Security’s “brotherly interest in our safety” in the
face of “campus crime,” it looks like they are mainly
interested in protecting Ketter against campus
“unrest.” The dorms could have been cleaned out by
any rip-off artist during the takeover of Ketter’s
office. If the cops get guns they will be used against
protesting students, not against “muggers” or
“thieves.” The editorial calls anti-arming students
“overly paranoid” for pointing out this FACT. It
maintains that we are “dead wrong” to think that we
will have to protect ourselves from Ketter’s oops as
well as crime. The Spectrum editors forget too easily
that racist campus cop James Britt last year
hospitalized an innocent black dorm student after
calling him a “monkey.”
LET’S GET OURSELVES ORGANIZED FOR
OUR OWN PROTECTION: Flood the campus with
light at night; have students patrol the campus and
have student government pay them for their time; rig
the dorms with alarms on every floor so that the
student patrol can call out an entire building in the
event of crime.
Relying on ouiselves in this manner is a glimpse
of how we can collectively solve our own problems
under socialism. The only person who needs
protection by “professional” gunmen is racist

�May the Dead
rest in peace

Poor taste
To the Editor.

In the October 3 issue of The Spectrum, the
siqall article concerning the Grateful Dead concert
was in very poor taste. Why was a person who says,
“I can't stand the Grateful Dead” assigned to review
the concert or more importantly, why did he go to it
in the first place? The “critic” obviously cannot
distinguish an “uninspired” and “automatic” concert
from a truly professional one.
Granted, the Dead “don’t play the way they
used to;” they have matured and transformed. Their
music today is alive and energetic, and all Qve
members have emerged as genuine musicians. How
can a band “not fit,” as you say it, when they are
the leaders and the mold of today’s music.

To the Editor:

In the Wednesday, Oct. 3 issue of The

members of The Greatful Dead as “just assholes.”
Irregardless of his opinions on their musical
talents, I feel he was completely unjustified in calling
them assholes. The only criteria he used for this
attack on their personal character was his own
dislike for their musical performance. The Dead
come out and play to the best of their ability, and
then they leave. Never have 1 seen them say or do
anything obnoxious that would justify calling them
assholes.
Joe Fembacher doesn’t deserve to be a music
editor. Shit. He’s just an asshole.

The new units, alongside the
non-clinical emphasis in design,
will enable the students to deliver
more efficient care to the
patients. Dr. Feagans felt this was
very important due to the steady
flow of traffic from the outside
community. Another important
change consisted of upgrading the
students’ clinical education by 30
to 40 years, enabling the students
to practice with the latest in
dental facilities, said Dr. Feagan.

Four-handed dentistry
Unfortunately, because of the
lack of funds for
increasing the labor force and the
number of dental assistants, the
clinic will not immediately be able
to handle more patients than they
have in the past.

Prospective teachers may opt
for a revised student teaching
program. The new student teacher
plan takes three semester to
of the

traditional two.
Under the new program
devised last year by Peter Allan,
an instructor in this University’s
Teacher Education Department,
student teachers spend the first
two semesters at various schools,
the
getting to know
administration, teachers and
students. In addition, during this
time, the student decides at'which
school the student would like to
teach and with what teacher he
would be cooperating. The third
semester is spent working with the
teacher and student-teaching on a
full-time basis.
The main difference between
this new system and the previous
program is that both the students
and the teachers get a choice as to
whom they will work with, when
in the traditional manner,
students were simply appointed to
positions with no prior knowledge
of the school or the people in it.
According to Sal Illuzzi, the new
program director, the advantage
of the three-semester concept is
that students are working with
someone they have come to
know, instead of working with a
stranger.

teachers were not clear about the
purpose of the students. Peter
Allan, who is now the assistant
superintendent of schodls in the
Cheektowaga Central School
District, had neglected to write up
a mode] of the program which
would explicitly explain its
methods and goals.

Model developed
The two new directors of the
program, Mr. Illuzzi and A1
Sarnowski, after several weeks of
work, have developed such a
model, giving the idea a definite
structure and outlining its goals.
According to the model, in the
first semester the student takes an
Educational Sociology course
through the university. During the
first five weeks the student will
visit various schools, and during
the second five weeks he will
work with students of all ages
from the elementary grades
through high school. At the end
of this period the student decides
at which school he wants to work.
During the second semester,
students take the TED course
Practicum in Teaching Methods,
and works part-time with all of
the cooperating teachers in his
subject. At the end of this
semester, the students and
teachers make their choices as to
whom they will work with the
next and final semester.
The third semester is divided

�Agnew loses political ground

better education
all previous centers of Kennedy
weakness. Among Republicans, the Vice President runs
ahead by 63-25 per cent, but among independents he is far
behind, by 55 to 28 per cent
A similar result emerged from a pairing between the
Vice President and Sen. Walter Mondale of Minnesota, who
has been mentioned as one of the Democratic party’s “new
faces” who might make the run in 1976. The cross section
of voters was asked: “Suppose for President in 1976 it
were between Agnew for the Republicans and Sen.
Mondale of Minnesota for the Democrats if you had to
choose, would you vote for Agnew, the Republican, or
Mondale, the Democrat?”

by Louis Harris

-

Embroiled in Grand Jury proceedings involving leaked
charges of alleged kickbacks, Vice President Spiro Agnew
has dipped badly in the trial heats for the 1976
Presidential election. He now trails Senators Edward
Kennedy, Henry Jackson and Walter Mondale by wide
margins.

Mr. Agnew himself has strongly implied that his
political future has been all but eliminated by the publicity
surrounding the investigations into government contracts
in Maryland during his tenure as governor.

Between September 23 and 25, the Harris Survey
asked a nationwide cross-section of 1132 likely voters:
“Suppose for President in 1976 it were between Spiro
Agnew for the Republicans and Sen. Edward Kennedy for
the Democrats if you had to choose, would you vote for
Agnew, the Republican, or Kennedy, the Democrat?”

Only as recently as last May, Mr. Agnew was leading

slipped behind Mondale by 24 points. Mondale makes a
particularly strong run among the college educated,
independent voters and voters of the Jewish faith
The widest margin in these trial heats was scored by
Sen. Henry Jackson of Washington, who led the Vice
President by 30 points.
The cross-section was asked; “Suppose for President
in 1976 it were between Agnew for the Republicans and
Sen. Henry Jackson of Washington for the Democrats if
you had to choose, would you vote for Agnew, the
Republican, or Jackson, the Democrat?”

Jackson does relatively better than the other
Democrats in the pairings in the South (where he leads by
53-27 per cent), among voters 50 years of age and over,
among union members, and among persons who voted for
Richard Nixon in 1972 (even here he leads by 41-40 per
cent). Jackson has staked out a harder line than other
Democratic contenders on relations with Russia and on
crime and law and order.
The only group where Vice President Agnew finishes
on top against all three potential Democratic nominees are
rank-and-file Republicans. This fact, however, can have
some real significance in determining Spiro Agnew’s future
in the days of controversy that appear to lie ahead. For it
is likely that the Vice President will use his base of support
among GOP regulars to try to set a backfire. He has stated
categorically that he will not resign, even in the event of an
indictment in the Baltimore investigation.
Nonetheless, these Harris Survey results can only be
labeled as disastrous to the Vice President’s hopes for
coming back as a serious contender for his party’s
nomination for President in 1976. At the moment, at least,
it is obvious that Mr. Agnew has been written off as a
viable candidate by the voters themselves. His loss of
support among such key groups as those who voted for
him and President Nixon in 1972 in the South, in the
small towns, among older voters
has occurred precisely
within the base of Agnew strength in the past.
Of course, should Vice President Agnew either not be
indicted by the Grand Jury now looking into the alleged
kickbacks or if he should be indicted and later acquitted
either by a jury of his peers or in an impeachment
proceeding by the House of Representatives, he might
conceivably make a political comeback. But now the odds
are heavily loaded against Mr. Agnew making it back as a
serious contender for the GOP nomination in 1976.

The students led after the first quarter by a score of 20-16 in a

Bulls maintain their
undefeated record
Despite scoring three earned
runs only twice in their last five
starts,
the baseball Bulls
maintained thfcir undefeated
record at 13-0-1 last week.
Buffalo was held to a I-I,
13-inning deadlock at Niagara last
Thursday that was halted by
darkness at the Purple Eagles’
campus. The Bulls swept Niagara
(13-4, 3-0) and St. Bonaventure
(2-1, 8-3) last Saturday and
Sunday at Peelle Field.
The Bulls erupted for 14 hits in
Saturday’s opening victory over
Niagara and 13 more in Sunday’s
nightcap against St. Bonaventure,
but on the three other occasions
had to depend on strong pitching
and tight defense to remain
undefeated. Designated hitter Jim
Mary led the Bulls’ attack last
weekend, slamming a home run
and five RBIs to maintain a .560
batting average. John Kidd
homered in Sunday’s nightcap and
drove in four runs last weekend.

Pitching remains brilliant
Buffalo’s pitching
staff
continued to shine, limiting
Niagara to a total of one hit in

Saturday’s doubleheader. Jim
Niewczyk, Wayne Fry and Bill
Casbolt combined to no-hit the
Eagles in Saturday’s opener.
Niagara tallied four unearned runs
as a result of eight walks and three

errors.

Niewczyk, one of five Bulls

with an ERA of 0.00, hurled four
hitless innings to improve his
amazing ratio of hits to innings
pitched. Niewczyk has allowed
just two hits in 18 innings, an
incredible one hit for every nine
innings.

The Bulls broke open the
of Sunday
second -g=ame
doubleheader with four runs in
the first inning after tallying just
twice despite collecting seven hits
and five walks in six innings in the
opener.
“I talked to them
between games,” admitted Bulls’
coach Bill Monkarsh. “It’s a long
season and you have to have to
stay in every game mentally. You
can’t make mental mistakes.”
. Buffalo
concludes its fall
baseball season this weekend. The
Bulls travel to Geneseo Saturday
and then to Ithaca Sunday for a
pair of doubleheaders.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

�‘Dollar Bill* Bradley
shoots from the hip
at Clark Hall
by Bruce Engel
Contributing Editor

Relaxed but visibly tired, he
strolled into Clark Hall
Wednesday night and took a seat
near the podium. His imposing
6’5” frame, clad in a light blue
turtleneck and tan blazer, rested
comfortably on the seat with his
long legs stretched far out in front
of him. He smiled only for a
student with a camera who took
his picture. Finally Speakers
Bureau chairman Bob Bunich
introduced him: “Number 24 for
the World Champion New York
Knicks—Bill Bradley.”
The crowd was not really large
but quite enthusiastic. “It is now
easy for me to see, after seeing
this wonderful facility, why there
are so many pros from this school.
If they raised the basket to 14
feet, you’re really going to have
some great shooters here,”
Bradley sarcastically commented.
On the more serious side,
“Dollar Bill’s” brief IS-minute
speech dealt with the future of
the Olympics. “The Olympics
should not continue without
drastic modifications,” said
Bradley. He then outlined five
changes he’d like to see.
Olympic changes
First was open competition

(amateur status would not be a
prerequisite.) ‘There is no such

thing as a true amateur," said
Bradley. “The rule is very difficult
to apply. He cited several
international discrepencies in the
interpretation of the amateur rule.
Second, team sports should not
be included. Instead he suggested
team championships be held in
off-years. “It becomes quite easy
to believe that you are playing for
national glory rather than
personal enjoyment,” he said, a
radical thought when compared to
present movements designed to
enhance the quality of American
teams.
“The United States Olympic

Committee should clean its
house.” Specifically he called for
better coaching and a full
accounting of expenditures.
“Getting them to explain their
expenditures is like trying to get a
tape recorder into a congressional
committee meeting-impossible,”
Dollar Bill observed dryly.

Biggest thrills
Bradley also called for more
emphasis on people. This could be
accomplished by lengthening the
time of the games so there is more
personal contact, spontaneity and
creativity. Bradley would like also
to see cultural pursuits, poetry
readings, art shows, and soon,
held in conjunction with the
games. “This is the only thing that

should be the
permanent home for the games,
Bradley suggested. He called upon
the audience to be aware of these
things and to get in touch with*

changes.
Bradley then opened it up for
questions, first stating that John

Havilcek is the best forward he’s
played against; the most exciting
game he’s ever been in was the
fifth playoff game against the
Lakers in 1970; and that Walt
Frazier was the best guard in the
game. Obviously these were his
stock answers for the most
common questions he gets.

Bradley off the cuff
The Buffalo Braves are the most unproved
team in the NBA. That assessment was given not
by any rabid local fan, but by the starting

forward of the World Champion New York
Knicks. The Braves definitely got the better end
of the trade which sent Elmore Smith to the L.A.
Lakers for Jim McMillan, said Bill Bradley, and
he thinks that Bob Kaufman will be able to do
the job at center and that “Randy Smith is a
great sixth man.” Lacking only a 6’4” shooting
guard to complement Ernie DiGregorio, he feels
“Buffalo is just one player away” from being a
great team.

Regarding Wilt Chamberlain’s jump from the
Lakers to the ABA, Dollar Bill said “he’ll always
do what’s right for him,” adding that Wilt had an
ego which “could never be satisfied.” His most
exciting single game was the fifth game of the
1970 Knick-Laker championship series, in which
Willis Reed was injured but the Knicks still
managed, miraculously, to win. But overall, the
Knicks’ 1973 chamionship was the most
exhiliariating: “It’s more gratifying the second
time.” He’s still waiting to receive his second
chamionship ring, and disclosed that each Knick

made more chamionship money in ’73 than in
’70 despite not finishing first, because the league
was richer. He added that playoff payoffs in
other sports were comparatively higher.
He considered the Boston Celtics a tougher
playoff opponent last year than the Lakers,
adding the Knicks were flat in the sixth Celtic
game and “should’ve won in five.” He thinks he
lost “maybe a step-and-a-half” by going to
Oxford for two years, mentioning that education
there is broader and more integrated than the
fragmented courses here like “American History
322-1860-1900.” A ballplayer peaks at 27 or 28,
he said, and after 31 must make up for lost speed
with experience.
And after his basketball career is over, Bill
Bradley will go into either business or politics,
possibly in his home state of Missouri. He has to
decide whether to return there or remain in the
East, to which he has become attached (he lives
in Manhattan during the season). And yes, John
Havlicek is the toughest forward he has ever
played against, Bill Bradley said, sounding like he
had answered that question a thousand times.

Bradley last minute

fill-infor Frazier

“A lot of girls are going to be
nude at me because Frazier isn’t
here,” said Speakers Bureau
Chairman Bob Burrick. Mr.
Burrick’s disappointment at Walt
Frazier’s last-minute cancellation
was matched only by his gratitude
to New York Knick teammate Bill
Bradley for filling in with only 24
hours’ notice.
Frazier was originally
contracted last April for an
October 2 engagement in the
Fillmore Room. However, a Knick
exhibition game forced the date
back to Wednesday, October 3.
Frazier’s business manager agreed
to the switch.
The Speakers Bureau works
through ait organization called
Program Corporation of America
(PCA). PCA tried to set up the
final arrangements, “Frazier’s
people avoided them,” according
to Mr. Burrick. This frustrating
situation persisted until Tuesday
afternoon at 3 p.m., when Frazier
announced he was not going to
come. The standard PCA contract,
while committing Speakers
Bureau, always gives the speaker
this cancellation option. At Mr.
Burrick’s request, PCA tried to get
Willis Reed to fill in, but Reed’s
manager did not call them back.

Part-time incentives

Perhaps Jack Bunting and MFCSA’s most
notable accomplishment is still in the working.
Throughout his years with the MFCSA, Mr. Bunting
has sought the initiation of a scholar incentive
program for part-time students. Part-time students,
who are charged by the credit hour, pay
proportionally more for their education than
full-time ones. It is possible that an MFC student
could take as many as 11 credits and not be eligible
for state incentive monies.
A proposal for part-time scholar incentives has
been brought before the State Legislature four times
since 1966. Each time it has been chiefly sponsored
by State Sen. Jeremiah Bloom (D., Brooklyn),
recently aided by Herb Posner (D., Queens).
Interestingly, Mr. Posner finished law school as a
night student.

near future. If we pass this, we will have done more
for part-time students than has been done in U.S.
history,” said Mr. Bunting.
The official long-range plan of SUNY is to move
to an all-encompassing, one-university system, Mr.
Bunting explained. When that happens, MFC will no
longer exist and part-time students will have the
same status as everyone else. (Fully one-third of all
SUNY students are part-time). Until that time, Mr.
Bunting is “concerned with the rights of students in
the changeover.” MFCSA’s main gripe, he said, is
still this University’s “9-to-5 syndrome.”
Mr. Bunting lives in Tonawanda and is a factory
employee of Dunlap Tire. He also sits on the Faculty
Student Association and must take time off from
work to attend.
Jack Bunting’t six years as president of MFCS A
will end this May when he graduates from MFC. He
has a joint major in sociology and English. His work
for part-time students will not end, however. He
expects to remain active on behalf of the proposal
for scholar incentive. As he put it: “That’s one thing
that I want to see done.”

�Purchase Power can

save consumer money
Purchase Power, a buyers’ cooperative sponsored by the
Student Association of the State University (SASU), can save
money for students planning to make major purchases. This
purchasing plan guarantees students the lowest possible prices on a
wide assortment of consumer items by offering a massive potential
market to retailers.
Purchase Power works quite simply. An interested student
must first contact a Purchase Power representative, give him the
SASU Purchase Power Identification Number (which may be
obtained from the Student Association office), and then describe
the item he wishes to buy. A buyer’s certificate listing local
Purchase Power dealers and valid for 30 days will be mailed to the
student who then contacts the dealer for an appointment. The
purchase is transacted in private to protect the retail business of the
dealer.
If the identical item can be found elsewhere at a lower retail
price within 30 days of receiving the certificate, Purchase Power
will refund the difference between the costs plus 20%. Purchase
Power has a full-time professional consumer protection staff to
intercede on the student’s behalf if problems arise.
“The agreement between Purchase Power and SASU was
signed last spring... and was operative over the summer with
success” said J.F. Mossgraber, SASU director of Statewide Services.
SASU also offers other services lo students including a
Decreasing Tuition Term Insurance Policy which pays for a portion
of school costs upon the demise of the student’s parents. In
approximately a year, a Health and Accident Insurance Program,
which has special coverage for abortion and maternity costs for
unwed recipients, will be available. SASU is also trying to organize
chartered intra-state travel facilities for students.
For further information on Purchase Power or any other SASU
program, contact SASU Campus Coordinator Paul Kade at 5507.

Pie fight ends with melee
Helen Urban didn’t approve, but the great
between President Robert Ketter and
Student Association President Jon Dandes went on
anyway. Ms. Urban had written a letter that
appeared in Monday’s Buffalo Evening News
decrying the United Fund' Campaign’s publicity
stunt as wasteful and frivolous. Her suggestion that
the food should go to the hungry caused more than
one campus wag to retort: “Let them eat pie.”
So the shew went on Tuesday afternoon in the
Norton fountain area. All that was missing was
Howard Cosell. In the tradition of Ali-Frazier,
Spasky-Fischer and Riggs-King, the two great
heavyweight pic-throwers squared off to promote
the United Way with a well-publicized duel.
The setting was magnificent. A sizable ring was
roped off with a judges table and a cabinet loaded
with whipped cream pies.

The crowd was growing and some spectators
expressed hope that the match would get out of

free-for-all. They were not disappointed.

While the crowd waited for the combatants,

Henry Lawrence of WKBW-TV established beyond
doubt a reputation for zaniness as he taped the end
of his news report. In a staged bit of Theater before
the match, he ducked one pie thrown at him by an
assistant, only to get another right in the face,
according to plan. Optimist that he was, he went
into Norton Hall to wash up before watching the
match.

Then, one-half-hour late. Dr. Ketter arrived.
Flanked by his second. University Prosecutor

battle in his black ceremonial robes. Mr. Meyer and
Mr. Unker traded, allegations as part of the opening
ceremonies. If there had been Academy Awards
given, Mr. Unker would have won Best Actor and
Mr. Meyer would have won Best Costume Design.
Let the record show that- Dr. Ketter cheated.
Given the advantage of a grossly oversized pie, he
fired well before he was supposed to. Then all hell
broke lose.
It was a wild melee as students stormed the pie
cabinet, throwing pies at everyone and anyone. Dr.
Ketter and Mr. Dandes clearly got the worst of the
pie barrage. One student, who claimed to have hit
Dr. Ketter twice in the face, speculated that his
transcript would disappear by morning.
Within five minutes, after the match started, the
whole area was covered with whipped cream. It was
a Keystone Kops scene with people sliding and
falling everywhere, tumbling into the fountain and
tossing pies at by-passers. When the chaos ceased,
high pressure hoses were brought in to clear away
the wreckage and all went on as before.

Amherst community skeptic
on overhead rail line system
The first of a series of community forums
concerning the proposed
overhead
Buffalo-to-Amherst rapid transit line was held
Tuesday night at the Windemere Elementary School.
The meeting dealt with the anticipated impact
of the rail line on the surrounding community. Area
citizens expressed concern over the possibilities of
increased noise pollution, soil erosion and increased
crime rates.
Thomas Lazzaro, Republican candidate for
Amherst town supervisor, quoted his letter;to
Congressman Jack Kemp at the forum. The letter
urged that the rail line remain underground from
Buffalo to Amherst. At present, the rail line will be
undergrown throughout Buffalo, but will go above
ground when it reaches Amherst.

Environmental concerns
Representing what he called “residents adjacent
to the proposed system,” Mr. Lazzaro expressed
their concern for the environment, the possibility of
reduced property values, and the isolation of the
Eggertsville area from the rest of the Town of
Amherst. Mr. Lazzaro said these effects could be
avoided by a “mole” procedure; that is putting the
entire system underground.
Some businesses would be forced to relocate
because of the overhead line, but could apparently
remain where they are now with an underground
route. Additionally, it was suggested that the
proposed drainage system be built simultaneously
with the transit system to avoid dual destruction of
the land.
The rail line is being financed through the
Niagara Frontier Transit Authority (NFTA). The
NFTA is receiving part of the money necessary to
finance the line from government funds. Bechtel
Associates, a San Francisco consulting firm has been
awarded a contract to study alternative methods of
producing the transit line.

�Escape-odes

Houdini Magic Hall
revives the olcjspirit
by Jim Boczarski
Spectrum Staff Writer

Ed Sullivan missed out on his
act, but visitors to Niagara Falls
can recapture a facsmile of Harry
Houdini’s performance by touring

the Houdini Magical Hall of Fame.
Until his death in 1926, Harry
Houdini was considered the
world’s foremost magician and
escape artist. His most famous
achievements included illusions of
walking through walls, making
elephants disappear and escapes
from handcuffs, milk cans,
water-torture cells, coffins and
jails.

Aside from the collection of
books which Houdini
donated to the Library of
Congress, the Houdini. Magical
Hall of Fame has the most
extensive collection of Houdini’s
mementoes, illusions, films, and
apparatus. The museum, which
opend in a larger building in 1968,
has since moved down the street.
Tours that once were given by live
guides are now conducted by a
mechanical voice emanating from
a transistor-radio-like speakers.

Quality leveled
Some museum visitors who
have been to both locations have
found this new arrangement distressing. However,
Jim Middleton, the museum manager -contended;
“This system levels quality.
With the guided tours, you
either had a superb tour or
a rotten tour; now you
have a good tour. It is level
and consistent
Another change accompaning the new location
was a reduction in the
number of illusion secrets
revealed to the public.
Magicians who still include
similar tricks in their act
had objected to the exposure. Once the secret is
known, audiences lose interest, the magicians argued. Despite these innovations which some consider
unfortunate, the museum
contains a significant collection for Houdini enthusiasts.
The tour begins with a
display of the illusions
Houdini acquired from
other majicians and later
incorporated into his own
act. Next, some dvices of
Houdini’s own design are
exhibited, including famous milk cans, straight
jackets, and brick wall.

need assistance when he
attempted the trick with a broken

The tour ends with a magician
performing table-top illusions. If a
visitor asks: “How does that
work?” the reply is; “Very well,
thank you.” The traditional
secrecy of the magician’s tricks
are not revealed until the visitor
buys his own device at the
museum gift shop.

Happy Halloween
Harry Houdini died on
Halloween in 1926. So every
October 31st, the museum holds a
seance in an effort to contact
Houdini in the spiritual world.
Houdini and his friend Joseph
Dunninger devised a plan whereby
the first one to die would try to
contact the other from beyond.
Mr. Dunninger is still alive, and
they keep trying, but haven’t

Most young lawyers never set foot in a

Rosenberg maintained. Additionally, many take the
oath without ever seeing a subpoena.
In the clinical seminar program, students receive
academic credit for working in neighborhood or
school legal aid programs, public prosecutor’s or
defender’s office, or for participating in selected
cases under the supervision of a faculty member.
Six out of nine hours a week, students engage in
their assigned field work. The cases primarily include
family court litigation, discrimination of the sexes
and school-related matters. The remaining three
hours fill the seminar requirement by integrating the
practical courtroom experience with the academic
training of the classroom.

Law first hand

Practical experience
“The essential feature of this program is the
direct faculty supervision and the fact that the
students are asked to take only one other course in
addition to the one given by the clinical program,”
explained Dr. Rosenberg. “The bulk of their work
day is put into practical experience with real cases.”
Since the beginning of the clinical seminar program
two weeks ago, “there have been 25 cases handled
and the students and faculty seem to be genuinely
interested,” he added.
Many clinical instructors have suggested that the
program’s most important value is teaching law
students to recognize the “ethical dimensions of
their practice” and to be aware of their professional
responsibilities, Aflytiipe a, StudSOt is faced with an
ethical problefn, he can immediately discuss it with
his instructor.
According to a recent New York Times article:
“In these and similar courses, the individual

student’s projects are often dissimilar, but in weekly
discover and analyze the
common threads of the legal process. Here law
teachers dissect not the doctrioAAf the law, such as
how property can be transferr«rm trust, but the
activities of the lawyers. Students practice drafting
documents,
examining witnesses, negotiating
settlements, interviewing clients and even lobbying
for new legislation.”
A second-year Harvard law student recently
recovered $3500 in back due payments for a welfare
recipient who never knew she was eligible for
disability benefits.

classes, participants

Passing fad?
Many critics regard the program as a passing fad,
while others feel it is an essential tool in learning the
law. Edmund Kitch, a young University of Chicago
law professor said; “The clinical program can
confront the student with the service obligations of
the legal profession. But if this is an objective of the
program, service to poor clients may not be the best
way to develop it.”
He noted that poor clients are often inarticulate,
and to an unusual degree the burden often falls
heavily to the lawyer to define what it is in fact the
client needs.” Additionally, Prof. Kitch said: “There
is pressure in a poverty office to sacrifice the
standard of service to individuals in the interest of
serving the largest number.” He asked: “Do students
need more than common sense and common
decency to deal with the problems of the lawyer
role? If they lack these qualities, can exposure to
real problems inculcate them?”
Despite these reservations, more students are
being enrolled in clinical programs every year. Their
phenomenal rate of growth in the last five years has
been largely attributed to the Council on Legal
Education for Professional Responsibility (CLEPR),
an institution funded by the Ford Foundation,
which has paid for clinical programs at 90 law
schools. The grant was given with the understanding
that it would not be-renewed with the expectation
that the schools themselves would subsequently
provide the money to continue clinical education.

Chronic, mental patients have long suffered a
lack of contact with “normal” living. As early as

explained the clients are once again independent
members of their community, with the freedoms and
responsibilities that accompany “normal” life.

too large and isolated from surrounding
communities. In 1963, President John F. Kennedy
called for legislation ta decentralize large institutions
and provide community mental health services in
their place.
In 1969, New York State began complying with
this recommendation and Erie County was
subsequently divided into areas called “Catchman
areas.” Each Catchman area is serviced by a mental
health unit that combines previously separate county
and state facilities.

grown

Members of the Placement Team of Catchman
Unit 6 at Buffalo State Hospital, seeing the problems
chronic patients had, originated the “Launchpad”
project. Chronic patients, many of whom have been
hospitalized for 10 to 25 years, are moved into a
community residence at 46 Oxford St.
Lost living skills
E. Kritzer, Placement team leader of Unit 6,
explains: "After spending ten years or more in an
institutional setting, these people have lost the skills
of daily living.” The original illness has become
almost irrelevant. To achieve Launchpad’s goal,
which is to enable patients to live independently in
the community, “training in skills like personal
hygiene, grooming habits, budgeting, meal planning
and shopping is required.”
A study conducted by the Unit 6 Placement
Team reported that "it is impossible to simulate
actual community living experience in an
institutional setting.” Consequently Launchpad
opened its house on Oxford St. in November, 1972,
providing rooms for eight clients at a time (four men
and four women).
Intermediate steps
Launchpad provides the intermediate step
between the institution and a more permanent
placement withih the community. After' a 4tay at'
Launchpad, which averages between two and three
months, the client is placed either in a “family care
home” or in a shared apartment. The family care
home is a private residence which has offered to take
a client into its home as “a member of die family.”
The home must pass fire and health inspections, and
the family may choose the client it brings into its
home. The family is reimbursed for $195 a month
for each client and free counseling services are
available whenever needed.
Ms. Kritzer explained that for those clients who
are “better able to cope with less supervision,”
several clients may choose to live together in a

The Launchpad house has a staff of full-time
employees, all of whom were previously in-care
employees at the State Hospital. Charles Bataglia,
coordinator of the Launchpad program, and his
co-workers at the house act as supervisors for the

clients, whose ages have ranged between 24 and 70
years. While the employees are paid by the State
Hospital payroll, the clients receive a monthly
welfare allotment which pays for their rent, food,
clothing and spending money.
Mr, Bataglia commented; “It’s frightening for
the clients to start all over again. They are reluctant
to leave the hospital setting and it always takes at
least one to two weeks to adjust to their new
surroundings.” Augustine Diji, Unit 6 Chief at
Buffalo State Hospital, elaborated: “We have to take
one step at a time with them. After they have
adjusted to the community setting, the clients find it
upsetting to even think of returning to the hospital.”

Success story
75-80% of those who have lived at Launchpad,
and have been placed in the community have
adjusted well to independent living, reported Dr.
Diji. However, he also emphasized: “Launchpad is
not only for clients who were previously in-patients
at the State Hospital. It is also being used as an
alternative to hospitalization for new patients. It is
basically an out-patient facility.”
At this time, Launchpad is considering moving
to a new location. “The primary reason is that our
present location is outside the Catchman area which
we are serving,” explained Dr. Diji. Other reasons
include a need for expansion and for gaining a larger
administrative staff to allow the present employees
more time to concentrate on therapy.
More families are needed to offer their homes
for family care service. Mr. Bataglia readily admits
that: “Even with the reimbursement and counseling
services, taking in a client Is h sacrifice." The'
Launchpad house itself desperately needs volunteers
to help with-the clients.
A -Placement Team report states: “The
community at large has to take more responsibility
in the treatment of the mentally disabled, accepting
them as individuals in the process of social
integration and not as patients who have to be
segregated within the walls of the State Hospital.”
Anyone who wants to volunteer some time,
contact Rita Rothstein of CAC at 836-0074, or
Charles Bataglia, 46 Oxford Street? 884-7040.
Anyone interested in offering his home for family
care, contact Ms. Kritzer at Buffalo State Hospital.

No guns
and the consequences
—

The arming of Campus Security is such an emotional issue that
both sides have been long on frenzied rhetoric and short on rational
facts. The rightists view arming Security as a panacea against crime, and
the leftists see arming as an instrument of political repression
engineered by Or. Ketter. Both are dead wrong.

~

I’Ve oppose the arming of Campus Security, selective or otherwise.
The Student Assembly's repeated opposition; the despicable, fact that
students on the Committee which recommended arming rarely
attended; the fact that the Committee itself was split; and last year's
referendum vote of 4-to-l against arming clearly indicate that students
don't want guns on campus. We agree. The potential danger of
introducing guns far outweighs any possible benefits.

5$
GONE ALONG WITH TNI TERRORISTS
THAT LEAVE U|T*

Selectively arming two officers per shift to patrol three campuses
would be less than effective; Security admits arming would not be any
deterrent against crime. Instead, assistant director Lee Griffin says
armed up to now, unarmed officers must try to avoid direct
confrontations with armed opponents, whereas introducing a second
gun would exacerbate any confrontation and situation they have a
50/50 chance of coming out.'' However, as they have up to now,
unarmed officers must try to avoid direct confrontation and probably
lead to gunfire. If an officer is unarmed, there's no reason for an
opponent to fire; if an officer draws a gun, the opponent knows he's
going to use it. This will lead to gunfire and possible injury to student

Additionally, many of the Hull committee's recommendations are
now outdated. In the last two years. Campus Security has reduced
campus crime by 38%, raised morale, instituted a requirement of two
years of college for officers, and won the respect of many students
all without guns. In any given year since 1970, no more than eight
incidents of armed persons on campus have been recorded, so armed
confrontation is infrequent
so infrequent that it cannot justify the
exacerbating and Big Brother influence that armed plainclothesmen on
campus would bring. Even- in dangerous situations, would giving
Security guns place their lives in less jeopardy? Probably not.

We oppose any form of arming. The dangers of guns on campus far
outweigh the possible benefits. But if we accept an unarmed Security
force, we must be aware of the consequences. Those consequences
would be either seeing the Buffalo Police on this campus or virtually no
protection for students against viplent crimes.
Although the Hull committee researched this problem and decided
the only workable compromise was selectively arming two
highly-trained officers" par shift (with more 'Stringent training
requirements than the city or state police), we urge more research into
non-lethal tactics which Security could apply in dangerous situations. If
we don't want guns, we may have to accept dogs patrolling the dorms,
tear gas, or other distasteful alternatives. But these hard choices must
be mfde if we want any kind of protection on this campus. A liberal
who is assaulted very quickly becomes a conservative.
Those opposed to arming have now voiced their concern, but
future takeovers of Or. Ketter's office will not solve the problem. Hard
decisions are in order. It is not enough to simply oppose arming. We
most weigh the alternatives and find a solution if We want both no guns
and a safe campus.

America, whose streets were reputedly
paved with gold, has begun to realize that
the inexhaustible hom of plenty is
beginning to have a hollow ring when
feeding time draws near. It came as a shock
to the American people that there were
shortages in materials that have always
been taken for granted. It seems that we
have staggered from one shortage to
oil, beef, metals grains, to
another

Alternative tactics may be of some value. Security's dogs were
originally disigned for danger, but they are unsuitable in crowded
situations (and so are guns); and neither students nor Security wants
the dogs patrolling the dorms and the Union. Other non-lethal
weapons, such as tear gas, could be useful, but again ini limited
number of situations. Calling in the Buffalo Police is a highly
undesirable alternative, because of the time delay and because the city
cops have little sense of student problems and situations, as Campus
Security does. Finaaly, there is the option of Security agents simply
refusing to respond to dangerous calls. They have frequently disarmed
persons with knives, but would be totally justified in avoiding
confronting opponents with guns. Non-intervention might minimize
physical danger while accepting property loss in burglaries, but would
leave the victims of violent crimes like assaults and rapes completely
defenseless. Overly-paranoid anti-arming students have not dealt with
this problem.

bystanders.

Despite all this, there are hard facts which can't be ignored. There
is crime on campus. The University is no ivory tower, it's a Buffalo
community, and what other coimmunity has an unarmed police force?
It is unreasonable to expect unarmed officers to go into dangerous
situations. "If we're to have total law enforcement responsibility, we
must be equipped for that task," said Mr. Griffin. "If not, our sole
must be re-defined." His re-definition for an unarmed Security force
would be to remove dangerous situations from their area of
responsibility. And this is the crucial question one which anti-arming
radicals have totally failed to consider: If Security is not armed, who
will handle dangerous situations and armed confrontations?

This is excerpts from a letter dated
September 23 from Dr. Marvin Resnikoff,
formerly a member of this University’s Physics
Department, presently in Santiago, Chile on a
Fullbright Scholarship.

Dear Joel &amp; Johanna;
We’re OK though it’s still very dangerous
here in Santiago. The military still has banned all
information except that which they hand out. We
get hardly any information from the states. Our
only source is Argentine radio. The number of
dead is over 20,000 though the official count is
244, but the military has a definition for official
dead which generally avoids counting the real
number. All Leftist newspapers, magazines and
parties are banned. The military classifies these as
foreign extremist ideologies, even though the
Communist Party has been here for 50 years and
the Socialist Party for 40 years. All Leftist books

have been shipped to the States, and my records
will be coming to the States the next few days.

all banned, and the book “El Tancazo” is

sort of brutality is so difficult to be rational
about; it is so depressing. And the military itself,

the workers of this country, and then used

violent in that a minority of wealthy people in
this country will never give up their power

going to be a long period of armed struggle in this
country and a lot of lives are going to be lost. It’s
really sad.

Kent State

clarified
positively identified as Tom Kelly

To the Editor.
Friday’s The Spectrum reports that David
Crosby uttered these words to his audience at
Buffalo’s Century Theater: “Hey, does anyone know
who Terence Norman is? Well, a few years ago, Terry
was on the campus at Kent State. He was the one
who pulled the trigger. It turns out that Terry was an
FBI agent. Yeah, this just came out.’’
With due respect for Mr. Crosby’s artistic
contribution to the Kent State issue Four Dead in
Ohio, I feel called upon to clarify that statement.
On May 4, 1970, Terry Norman, a Kent State
Criminal Justice major, who photographed campus
demonstrations for the University police and the
FBI, remained close to the National Guard during its
patrol of-the campus. Minutes after the guardsmen
opened fye on Blanket Hill, Norman was observed
brandishing a revolver at some students. Two
University staff members chased him across campus,
through a skirmish line of guardsmen, to a group of
Kent State policemen who confiscated the weapon.
,
Immediately..following. therdwMpgs, foe guard
spokesman claimed that a.sniper precipitated the
guard’s volley, and speculation arose that Norman
may have fired the first shot. That speculation
ended, however, when Norman and the University

police claimed that the weapon was never fired.
Norman told the Akrort Beacon Journal that he did
not draw his weapon until' after the guardsmen fired
and after he was attacked by a student armed with a
knife. Curiously, Norman was not called to testify
before either the President’s Commission on Campus
Unrest or toe Special Ohio Grand Jury.
Statements by two witnesses, newsman Fred
DeBrine and now ex-guardsman Michael Delaney,
indicate that Norman and a campus detective later

admitted that
Norman had fired his revolver. Neither Delaney nor
or
DeBrine stated they actually saw Norman fire
that he triggered the shootings but they did charge
that they overheard Norman and Kelly both say
(when Norman was /disarmed) that the weapon had
been fired. Curiously, neither Delaney nor DeBrine
was interviewed by the Campus Unrest Commission,
the Ohio grand jury, or the FBI. Delaney
who was
was
not on Blanket Hill when the guardsmen fired
the National Guard’s press information officer at
Kent State. He said he issued Norman press
credentials May 4, 197,0, after a University
policeman (later identified as Kelly) told him
Norman was “shooting pictures” for the FBI.
On July 24, 1973, after a Congressional
sub-committee began a probe of Norman’s role in
the Kent shootings, the FBI disclosed that in April,
1970, Norman had been paid $125 for “information
of value to the FBI regarding (the) National Socialist
White People’s Party,” an outgrowth of the
American Nazi Party. More importantly, the Bureau
disclosed that “the FBI laboratory did not examine;
(Norman’s) gun to determine whether it had been
fired (on May 4, 1970) since the gun had passed
through a number of hands before coming into FBI
custody.” The hands referred to belong to Kent
State police.
v
And that’s where it rests with the Terry Norman
case: No proof that “he was the one who pulled the
trigger” and no proof that “Terry was an FBI
agent.” Perhaps Mr. Crosby’s conspiritorial view of
Kent State will ultimately be vindicated. "Until that
time though, haven’t we got enough conspiracies to

The academic community is well justified in a self-examination of
its soul when the President of the institution finds it acceptable to
belittle his office. Though the ill-conceived “pie-fight” between SA
President Jon Dandes and President Robert Ketter was designed to
garner support for a worthwhile cause, this is still a University
community, not a carnival. Fortunately, for those seeking some
“intellectual” exercise from this antic, history provides a useful
analogy.
In medieval and Tudor times, a “King of Misrule” was appointed
each year to direct the Christmas time horseplay and festivities. In his
book Shakespeare’s Festive Comedy, C.L. Barber describes how most
wealthy households in that time would appoint a King (or Lord) of
Misrule from among those who had been brought up in nobleman’s
houses (servants).
Dr. Barber adds that it was very useful for formal misrule to be
used in formal households: “My Lord of Misrule, burlesquing majesty
be promoting license under the forms of order, would be useful to
countenance the revelry of such a group. And by giving way to a
substitute, the master’s own authority was kept clear of compromise,”
adds Dr. Barber.
By this time the analogy becomes clearer. During the one-day reign
of the “Lord of Misrule”, the master of the house would abdicate his
authority with full knowledge that when the 24-hour period was up,
the feasting, mimicking, gaiety and feellr$ of self-importance on the
port of the Lord of Misrule would end, and the master would be
reinstated to his superior position
In the secular life of the Renaissance period, awe for the master
diminished and accordingly the fun of a “Lord of Misrule.” lessened
until its exploitation fell into disuse. That is, until last Thursday when
Mr. Dandes, alias the “Lord of Misrule,” and Dr. Ketter, the ultimate
master, conspired to revive this ceremony on the State University of
Buffalo campus.
That Dr. Ketter occupies the masterly position over Mr. Dandes is
made clear by statements made by the SA President in the last month;
including such wisdoms as there are no differences between the
administration and students at this University, but the only existing
split is between students and faculty.
Students on this campus, especially undergraduates, must question
whether Mr. Dandes has had time between his self-reported 37 sojourns
into the community to improve relations between the University and
Buffalo, to actually inform hiself of pressing campus issues, many of
which pit students against the administration.
Dr. Ketter has authorized the formulation of guidelines for the
selective arming of Campus Security with an eye to the approval of
such guidelines if he finds them acceptable. That students and
administration don’t see eye-to-eye on this issue was highlighted by a
4-to-l undergraduate vote against arming last Christmas and by
Wednesday’s sit-in at Hayes Hall.
For many years the Colleges have fought emasculation by the
administration, and are now contending with a proposal by Academic
Affairs vice-president Bernard Gelbaum to cut the number of Colleges
by two-thirds in order to increase funding to the individual units. Why
isn’t Mr. Dandes instead arguing for an even larger increase in the
Colleges’ share of the pie than that proposed by the administration?
(There must have been some cream left over from the “battle”).
Each year this University must defend its four-course load system
to the decision-makers in the Division of the Budget in Albany.
Criticisms have included the lack of faculty-student contact hours and
the use of the system by the University as a gimmick to receive
additional funds by necessitating additional professors to carry the
course load.
Students have defended the system against such shallow
cost-accounting criticisms for as long as the four-course load has
existed. Instead of fighting these erosions of justification for the
four-course load, Mr. Dandes has now seen fit to publicly join the
attack by agreeing that “a PhD does not justify a two-hour workday”
and “we can’t justify the four-course load because of the lack of
fauclty-student contact.”
Mr. Dandes has also emphasized that his administration has opened
up new lines of communication with the administration: “I am
specifically referring to the monthly meetings that the entire Executive
Committee has with President Kcjter.” Unfortunately Mr. Dandes has
either been misled by the administration or has overlooked that these
meetings Jhave jrgen conducted for at least thijee years now.
Thisl$*me' setting of
priSfTties' that Mr. Dandes
brought to his pie fight with the President of this University. Dr. Ketter
came knowing that his power was secure, that he had an SA President
who would echo his policies when needed and who shared his concern
for the improvement of University-Community relations over all other
matters. In return for this, Dr. Ketter graciously appointed Mr. Dandes
“Lord of Misrule” last Tuesday.
y
During his brief reign, Mr. Dandes was afforded the opportunity to
cover
Ketter with fresh whipped cream. Mr. Dandes’ court, the
participants who bought or stole pies, rounded out the cast for the
ancient rite.
Mr. Dandes’ twenty-four hours is now up. The King is dead. Long

John Renbourn is a double album that had been released originally
as two single albums called John Renbourn and Another
England
in
Monday (recorded in 1965 and 1966 respectively). The two solo
alburris never made it stateside. When the two Ip's were pressed,
Renbourn was heavily involved with the jazz and poetry scene over
there.
The material on the two-record set is wide-ranging. "Ladye
Nothing's Toye Ruffe" has a stately, medieval classical ambience, while
"Nobody's Fault But Mine" is a bluesy spiritual (Jacqui McShee makes
a cameo appearance here on harmonies). Other numbers are nicely
integrated with variant musical strains; the combination of blues
picking and traditional folk patterns comes across in ear-catching
profusion on "Judy," while jazz and folk are similarly harmonious in
"Debbie Ann." J.R.'s early music is a paradigm of the foundation that
was buried deep down in his talented mind.
"Beth's Blues" is a beautiful rythmicy folky-Wues ballad that
exemplifies his quite complicated, yet impeccable, finger-picking style.

Roberta Flack Killing Me Softly (Atlantic)

Betty Boop with her makeup and squeals of glee, tight skirts and cutie
pie lips. Doing things like talking to the artist and dancing swing.
Swing. Get it? It was the swing era, and I thought you watched

television. Late night ads for big boxes of big bands like Artie Shaw and
Glen Miller, &amp; Co., who were only the white half of Basie &amp; Duke. The
Sing Era, so what's new? Like a pygmy. He had to come from
somewhere. Bird didn't just arrive, you know, he grew out of what
came before. He spent many hours listening and copying Lester
Young's every move. And then with his remarkable talents he went one
step further, a very big step.
He changed the music, but it was there before he got there and it
was vital. Prez. Hawk. Duke. Jo, and so many other geniuses. On
saxophone there was Chu Berry, Ben Webster, Vido Musso, Lester; on
trumpets were Roy Eldridge, Hot Lips, Cootie Williams, Buck Clayton;
oh man, too many to bother with. And Benny Goodman was really
great. Just because being white helped him to get recognition doesn't
mean he was bad, or any worse than he was.
He was incredible. He did everything and was full of feeling, more
to my taste than Ella Fitzgerald trying to sound like Rudy
Valentino-check out the way she says you on "All My Life" just like
Harpo imitating Maurice Chevalier. Just a little more society than, say,
Billie Holiday, who sounded like no one else ('cep Bessie). She did a lot
with Teddy Wilson. He had a band that sounded like a big band,but
without the box. Usually just about seven or eight pieces. He played
piano and was a romanticist at heact, and his band sounded great with
the best elements of everything, somehow it always sounded like a big
band, but it only went with rhythm section and a soloist most of the
time, just like the boppers. But they played so fast, it almost sounds
like chaos! Hold on, hold on, listen again to the swingers. For speed,
nothing else. They went pretty fast, regardless of our modern day
standards after hearing the likes of Bird and Diz, and cosmic Trane, all
the above-mentioned thirties men could believe it or not match them at

Roberta's always had it tough. She's older than we think, much
older, and hides her scars amidst hazy photos. She was born Robert
Black, but changed her name cause things were tough enough for a
mellow, female piano player making it on her own. Names just get in
the way, especially Black, like Larry who didn't get to run in the
Olympics so some revisionist Russian has the audacity to be called the
fastest human, but I know Borzov won't get an NFL contract and
Roberta seems to be making a living.
Someone once told me Carol King's Tapestry album sold 25 billion
copies and if placed end to end would stretch from anywhere to
Brooklyn- but what's she got that Roberta ain't? Yeah, King writes
her own songs, but you need more than that 'cause so does Mikey
Dolenz. Well, King has got the white Jewish market cornered, and
that's one fuckin' big corner. It kept Leslie Gore going for years till the
party was over and her boyfriend got drafted and was killed in Vietnam
and she just couldn’t cry about that forever.
But poor Roberta. I've got a cousin in Australia who likes her but
he's too ok) to chew bubble gum so he'll never buy a 45. And if you
want to hear a black woman play some piano listen to Alice Coltrane
bang the funkiest blues on Cosmic Music and send John's tenor into
bebop fits. And there are scores of black women, even lots of whites,
who burn with such soul that few will choose to keep warm around
Roberta's quiet fire. On the River she becomes black again and cries,
"and it do"—but it ain't enough, though it do.
Ah, there's this song Leonard Cohen wrote called "Suzanne," and
Roberta kept me from feeling shit by making it the last cut and doing it
real fine an' personal and anyone who takes that song and messes it up
just ain't a musician. Oh, would I like to hear Shepp do it—get Burrell
to play the right chords and Archie starts it with a scream cause he's

velocity.

So the music's more complex than 'swing' (ugh). Maybe for Trane,
sure, but Bird was blues one/four/five much of the time, or close. But
Big Deal! BIRD WAS GREATIII It's just that Teddy Wilson's great too,
and Lester was also GREATIII You've got to hear Benny Goodman
trying to sound like an electric razor, or Teddy drifting over mountains
and skyscrapers, like the characters in the cartoons they have become
too closely associated with, and of course you are aware that Louis
Armstrong started it all, since he died. Lester's already dead, at a young
age. Bird died young. So did Trane. So did Scotty LaFaro. And Paul
Chambers is dead, too. Ben Webster just died recently, at a ripe old age
and a depleted financial condition. Why don't they get rid of Doc
Severinsen? Duke's still alive, you know.
There's six tracks of Billie Holiday with Teddy Wilson here, which
were supposed to have been already released years before, but I am
unfamiliar with them and my collection is large. They're like the ones
on the box sets that already came out on Columbia, but the quality is a
little lower. Still, you know? More Billie Holiday. Like a blessing on
our age. But the best thing above all was Jonah Jones, a trumpet player,
and Benny Goodman, clarinetist, on "Sailing." The rhythms on the
solos, first Jones', then after with Goodman trying to pick up on it, are
incredible, like thirty years ahead of the time, (either that or sixty
behind), the riffs come off like whips repeating in a rhythmic pattern,
shooting right across the straight four-beat, much in the way Shepp and
Mahavishnu do now, it's incredible. It came out of nowhere, the Swing
era, though the swing era was great because this is the era that
produced, it. Jonah Jones of all people. And I remember Hot Lips
laughing on another album, but Roy Eldridge is on this one and he lives
and breathes through his horn. And it's also kind of cute the way all
the really straight hard basic blues sound so much like "Summertime",
which makes me realize that maybe "Summertime" is where it's really
at and now I'm sure. Everything’s just each person's interpretation of
"Summertime", 'cause that's what it's all about, it all started there, the
root of it all. "Summertime," yeah, just saying it in different ways,
Teddy Wilson's got his. Swing. Alright. But he also realized that you
can't just make the blues swing. You've got to swing the blues. So Roy
Eldridge takes the vocal on "Mary Had A Little Lamb." He's got more
class up his ass, as the saying goes, than most people have in their little
toe. And he sounds so happy but it's still blue somehow. And Teddy's
Face looks so kind and sweet on the cover, but there's something else a

wonders even more than before of the dedication on love. OH, would I
like more to write of love and get so sad when I think of those poor
lovers who must call a woman on the phone to get off more on a voice
when the voices of love, quiet, wild, and mellow, ring on phonos they
can't afford.
Hello
Roberta?
Yes, who's this?
Oh. I'm. I'm ... you have such a nice voice Roberta.
What do you want?
Just to talk to you. to hear you. I've
I'm hanging up, and don't you keep calling or I'll get the police
after
you. Good-bye.
I had my tape recorder going for that conversation and you should
hear it'cause it's the angriest Roberta will ever get. It takes more than a
song to get her really emotional, but if she ever started getting it on and
screamed a tittle you know anti-vigil groups would start checking up on
her records so their children could safely listen to the radio.
Like I said, it's been tough on her. Alice McLeod doesn't have to
worry about finding an audience, especially now that tier last name is
Coltrane. Carol K. has been getting alimony for years from her
ex-husband who used to keep her locked in the oven. But Roberta
struggled on her own and-she’s got it made now, and once Peggy Lee
dies, it will be easy street.

Take, for instance, one of a featured group of
paintings from the Deccan sultanates in India titled
Hindola Raga. This miniature (12 inches in height by
9% inches wide) done in the Hyderabad region
during the mid-ISth century is a musical depiction
of a raga intended to be sung on an early spring
morning. Typically, this classical rehdition is an
arrangement of geometric shapes as would suit the
modal quality and varying tones of a raga.

The best example of the obsequious irony and
disguised perceptiveness of these works is shown in a
painting called Five Mendicants. These wanderers
seem a confused lot weighted ’down with all sorts of
regalia, their picturesque collection of recycled
feathers, ropes, tassels, an English parasol, a Mugal
walking stick, and a snake charmer's pipe, mark
them as.lowly holy men (the more elevated ones are
far less eager for our attention).
Such quaintness appealed as much to foreigners
then (1815 is the date attributed to the painting) as
it does now. Pictures of this sort, along with sets
illustrating native occupations, architectural
renderings, and notable local curiosities were painted
for sale to the British.
The crazy mishmash of nostalgic decoration
appealed to the patrons- of this art who were
otherwise the busy servants ruling colonial India for
England. Active-minded people are often drawn to
such eroded hand-me-down native-type
personality-symbols of passivity, while the more
passive find them reassuringly comfortable. In each
case, they are much for the soul.

The Starlost, an original science fiction
adventure serifs, is set in deep space, 2790 A.D.,
aboard an "ark." Samples of various societies were
put into 56 domes when a galactic catastrophe
threatened the earth in 2285 A.D.
Due to damage on the bridge, these sectors have
become isolated from one another. To make matters
worse, the three million inhabitants on the ship are
headed on a collision course with an approaching
star. Saving the ark is the object of the series.
Our heroes come from a Puritan-type agrarian
society, incongruously filled with advanced
engineering and technology. Valient Devon, played
by Keir Dullea (best known for his role in 2001, A

becomes an outcast. Rachel (Canadian actress Gay
Rowan) adds a romantic touch and creates a triangle
between herself, Devon and Garth (Robin Ward).
These three discover the mysteries beyond their

his fifth-rate direction, Ray Fitzwalter gives the
show a "little theater" aura. Gay Rowan appears to
be reading off idiot cards and her emotions are less
effective than those of the computer. This is typical
of Canadian productions which often fall short of
their expectations.
Highlighting the show is the futuristic
equipment
from the flashing bulbs of life in the
chronic suspension chamber to the automatic
unfolding doors. The best character is the computer
"face" who is Capable of responding to questions
and even gives back video replays. His friendly,
cybernetic visage provides the program with a
slightly more intelligent atmosphere.
If the BBC had produced The Starlost as
planned, and if Harlan Ellison had written the
scripts, the series might have been comparable to
Star Trek. Instead we have something the caliber of
Lost in Space. This doesn't mean you should
completely avoid this series, but do try to find a
better way to spend your Friday evenings.

Meir discusses Soviet Jew transit
Prime Minister
TEL AVIV (UPI)
Golds Meir caUed a cabinet meeting
Wednesday to consider the possibility of
Holland replacing Austria as a transit
center for Jews emigrating from the Soviet
Union to Israel.
Mrs. Meir revealed plans for the meeting
on her return to Israel Tuesday night after
a fruitless attempt to talk Austrian
Chancellor Bruno Kreisky into keeping
open the Schoenau Castle transit camp
outside Vienna.
The 75-year-old Israeli leader said there
was no question of breaking diplomatic ties
with Austria. “Israel does not solve
problems by breaking relations with
people,” she said.
Kreisky said Tuesday in Vienna the
camp was an “absolute security risk,” a
reference to reports of recent guerrilla
plans to attack the facility. He reacted
angrily to suggestions he had capitulated to
the Arab gunmen.

Former Burma Prime Minister advocates
Buddhism
Former Prime Minister U Nu of Burma
challenged the modem minds at the State
University of Buffalo to experiment with
the Buddhist way of life. Speaking on
“Buddhism and the Modem World” at
Ridge Lea Tuesday, U Nu defined
Buddhism not as a religion but a science to
eliminate greed, anger, and ignorance.
He said in most other religions, man
must have faith in a supreme being, but
this does not apply to Buddhism.
According to Mr. Nu, Buddhism recognizes
the laws of nature and the concept of
Eternal Life contradicts them. “There is
nothing such as Eternal Matter. Matter
disintegrates as soon as it is formed,” he
emphasized.
Buddhism teaches that greed, anger and
ignorance can be eliminated during this
present life through meditation and fasting.
Mr. Nu said by concentrating on inhaling
and exhaling, one can control the mind
because in time, these exercises produce
acute awareness of bodily movements and
feelings. Additionally, he pointed out that
through continued mental concentration,

one may recognize the transience of life
and body, thus leading to an abhorrence
for matter.
Acknowledging that his father was his
first teacher, Mr. Nu began his public
career as a Burmese literary figure and was
premier of Burma from 1947 to 1958. His
government was overthrown in a bloodless
coup in 1958. Re-elected in I960, he was
ousted again in 1962. In recent years, he
has been in exile in Thailand. U Nu is
currently on tour of the United States.

A spokesman for the vice president,

�Survey reveals Americans
turning toward impeachment

CAVAGES

•o

been made, and President Nixon is no exception to

by Louis Harris
By 51 to 34 per. cent, a majority of the
American people feel that “Congress would be
justified to begin impeachment proceedings against
President Nixon” if he refused a court order
directing him to turn over Watergate tapes to a panel
of judges.
The net conclusion of a special, in-depth Harris
Survey, conducted between September 23 and 25
among 1475 households nationwide is that with the
passage of time President Nixon is in deeper trouble
over Watergate, rather than the issue receding in
importance. The public, previously reluctant to
contemplate impeachment of the President, now is
actively considering this a real prospect in the offing.

SALE

Here are other highlights from the survey;
By 47 to 39 per cent, a plurality of the public
now believe that “if the U.S. Senate Watergate
Committee decides that President Nixon was
involved in the Watergate cover-up,” then “Congress
should impeach him.” Back in August, a month
-

that rule.
Until the link has been made between an official
charge or finding by the Senate Watergate
Committee, 'or a court, that Mr. Nixon was involved
in the cover-up, or until the President actually
refuses a court order to turn over the tapes in camera
to a panel of judges, no more than roughly
one-in-three Americans are prepared to think he
should resign or be impeached. However, the number
who believe Mr. Nixon should resign has gone up
steadily from 14 to $1 per cent since last May.

Any effort by President Nixon to claim that a
decision by the federal courts is “not determinate,”
in the event a U.S. Supreme Court ruling is less than
clear, is not likely to go down well with the
American people. In fact, there is now serious doubt
that a court decision upholding the President’s right
to refuse to turn over the tapes will remove the
cloud that now hangs over him on the Watergate
issue.

The cross section was asked this question on the
impending federal court decision: “Suppose the
federal courts tell President Nixon he should let a
panel of judges hear the Watergate tapes privately to
decide which information on the tapes sheds light on
Watergate, but the President still refuses to hand
them over on the grounds that executive privilege is
being violated. Do you think if that happened
Congress would be justified or not to begin
impeachment proceedings against President Nixon?”

If Nixon Refuses Court Order to Hand Over Tapes

face of such charges by the Watergate Commiftee, by

a 50-39 per cent margin. The latest results therefore
indicate a sharp turn around by the public on the
impeachment issue.

The American people simply do not buy Mr.
Nixon’s argument that executive privilege and
separation of powers between the executive and
other branches of the federal government justify his
withholding of the tapes. By a substantial 56-29 per
cent, a majority think the President was “wrong to
appeal the decision of Judge Sirica that he allow the
Judge to hear the tapes on Watergate.’’ Although the
normal judicial processes give Mr. Nixon every right
to appeal a District Court decision, nonetheless the
net effect in the case of the President and the tapes
has been to sow in deeper the impression that he is
using legal maneuvers to conceal the contents of the
tapes.
-

A further indication of the worsening of Mr.
Nixon’s position is evident in the results of yet
another question in the latest survey, in which, by
50-39 percent, the public expresses the view that “if
it is proven that President Nixon knew about the
cover-up of White House involvement in Watergate,
he should resign.” In August, an identical question
yielded a 49-44 per cent plurality which though he
should not resign, even if such proof were
forthcoming.

By 60-24 per cent, a majority of the
American people have reached the conclusion in
their own minds that the President “did know about
the attempt to cover up White House involvement in
Watergate while it was going on.” However, when
“i* view of what has happened m the
Watergate affair, should President Nixon resign or
note?” by 56-31 per cent a majority still believe he
should not resign.

Much has been made of the apparent
discrepancy between the number who think the
President should be impeached or should resign and
the number who think he did indeed know about the
cover-up. In fact, there is no discrepancy at all. The
people have become rather sophisticated about not
condemning a man before an official finding has

So a decision of the U.S. Supreme Court on the
tapes and the findings of the U.S. Senate Committee
on Watergate will be crisis points indeed for Richard
Nixon on the Watergate affair. The web of public
opinion in the country has now poised itself for a
decisive stand.

exactly the most exciting work;
it’s more like putting together
nuts and bolts.” “However,”
added Dr. Paigen, “it’s work that
has to be done.”
Upon the retirement of John
HOwell as Headmaster of the
college, a committee of students
and staff mobilized, to keep
things going in the absence of a
permanent director. Dr. Paigen
agreed to take on the position this
fall, feeling strongly that the
college needed one person to
coordinate and direct it’s
activities.
With a mixture of calmness and
enthusiasm Dr. Paigen described
the new ideas a plans that will be
implemented by the college. One
of the most important functions
she indicated, will be to bring
small groups of people together.
Plans are being made for a series
of monthly activities, including
environmentally-related topics;
bike trips, a bike workshop, and a
small group of students, brought
together in homes of faculty to

•

Activities scheduled
Activities will be getting under
way this week. Friday evening,
Oct. 5, from 8-10, a talk will be
given on “Gathering Raw Foods
in Western N.Y.”, in Norton 231.
A bike trip Sunday morning is
scheduled
leave Norton at
8:30. The destination is Akron
Falls, a 45 mile trip. It is open to
any interested students.
Rtrticipants are advised to bring
their own lunch. Next week,
Rachel Carson College will
sponsor a two day bike workshop.
Dr. Paigen feels that these kind
of activities arte in keeping with
the original purpose of the
Colleges; -“to create a more
collegiate atmosphere” within the
larger, often alienating university
structure. Future plans also
include the introduction of six
new courses for the spring

semester.

student knowledge into action by
focusing on community problems.
As an example, she cited
students’ past accomplishments in
the Environmental Action Course.
They compiled a report on the
“dirty dozen”, Buffalo’s major air
polluters. This involved extensive
research, and even changed a local
law, by compelling the industries
to reveal their emission statistics.

Faculty needed
As one of the few faculty
members involved in the Colleges,
Dr. Paigen hopes that her
appointment as head of RCC will
attract new faculty.“But the
Colleges should be able to offer
them something in return,” she
emphasized. Dr. Paigen felt that a

Presently, she feels that RCC has a
lot of faculty support and plans to
use this as a resource. Dr. Paigen
feels that environmental studies
“are important for this University
and can cause much needed
interaction across departmental
lines.” Through RCC she hopes to
implement an inter-disciplinary
approach to environmental
studies.
RCC is presently undergoing an
external evaluation, as are the rest

The controversial porno flick starring Linda Lovelace, which

being shown at the Allendale Theater, 203 Allen St. near Elmwood

raided the theater and seized the film. However, the owner
happened to have a spare reel on hand, and once again began
showing the film. The police will now need a court injunction to
cut Deep Throat. In the meantime, Ms. Lovelace is expected to
attract large crowds to watch her do her unique thing.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Vol. 24, No. 19

Students to vote
for preferred
grading system
by Amy Dunkin
Campus Editor

Pass-fail? Letter grades? Plus-minus?
Undergraduates will have a chance to voice their
opinions regarding the present ABCDF and
alternative grading systems in a Student
Association (SA) referendum today through
Friday.
The most important of the five grading
questions will be the first, which will determine
whether students are satisfied with the present
ABCDF system. The second question poses two
possible alternatives: the addition of pluses and
minuses to letter grades or the institution of a
new system of pass, pass with honors, or fail
(P-H-F). The remaining questions will deal with
self-evaluation, written evaluations by instructors,
and the limit on pass-fail courses.
Although most students and administrators
have found many and varied flaws in the present
grading system, the possibility of replacing it has
met with mixed and even unfavorable emotions.
Commenting on the advantages of pluses and
minuses, SA Academic Affairs coordinator Bob
Kole said; “Students in large lecture classes will
no longer be subject to the pressures of meeting
cut-off points, and any inefficiency in grading will
not result in a big change in dim (cumulative
grade point average).” On the other hand, he
acknowledged that finer distinctions might
increase grade consciousness, an effect most
students agree would be highly undesirable.
Option available
However, Political Science professor Claude
Welch found it hard to imagine grade
consciousness being any higher on campus. Noting
that as a faculty member, there were times when
he wanted to “differentiate between a B+ and
B-,” Dr. Welch preferred a plus-minus system
supplemented by personal, written evaluations.
He pointed out that the option of obtaining such
evaluations from professors has always been open
to students, and he encouraged students to take
the initiative to request them.
On the negative side, one student said the
addition of pluses pid minuses would be “a
perpetuation of the arbitrary discriminations that
comprise grading. A grade is only an approximate
label; to further divide it into pluses and minuses
does not help indicate what the student has
learned.”
Regarding grade consciousness. Dr. Gelbaum
said, “there are people who always try to do as
well as they can and grades are the only
mechanism for reporting their progress. Others
who are naturally grade conscious will be
bothered by the difference of a C or C-,” he
added. Expressing his views on P-H-F, Mr. Kolc
called it a “fine idea to get away from letter
grades and numerical indexes.” He wasn’t certain,
however, how P-H-F would affect graduate school
acceptances from the State University at Buffalo
unless it was coupled with mandatory written
evaluations by professors for all upper level
courses in a student’s major. (Question Nol 4
specifically mentions this proposal for mandatory
evaluations under any grading system.)
According to dean of the Graduate School
McAllister Hull, there is no way of knowing a
student’s capabilities by examining P-H-F grades
alone. He also said that while written evaluations

accompanying P-H-F grades would be very
helpful, “asking for a careful and convincing
judgement is more than you're likely to get” from
faculty members who teach classes of anywhere
from 20 to 500 students. Predicting that grad
school admissions officers would “have to go
beyond grades and depend more on GRE
examinations and interviews,” Dr. Hull did not
foresee any workable alternatives to the present
grading system.

Known vs. unknown
Stating he has yet to see any grading system
that is perfect for mass education, Dean of
Undergraduate Studies Charles Ebert said P-H-F
grades on student transcripts could be a severe
handicap. He asserted it would be almost
impossible to write a meaningful evaluation for
every one of the 15,000 undergraduates unless
they could attend only seminar classes, and that
would create a “chain reaction of problems”
including reductions in class size, hiring more
faculty, etc.
One pre-med student, presently applying to
medical schools, strongly objected to P-H-F,
claiming that admissions officers would rely more
on med-board scores and that would be disastrous
for a lot of people. He said it is a matter of “an
unknown versus a known quantity” and “the
more rigorous the system, the more it pinpoints
the student’s ability.” Additionally, he contended
if the grades were accompanied by written
evaluations,” the paperwork involved in sending a

Wednesday, 3 October 1973

transcript would be so outrageous that an
effective admissions process would take at least
two years.” He thought the advantages and
disadvantages of the present system cancelled
themselves out.
Research needed
In contrast, one English major said P-H-F
would
cut-throat competition for
grades,” although admitting more research is
needed to determine grad school acceptance
criteria and how they would react to a P-H-F
transcript, possibly accompanied by written
transcript.
Question No. 3 in the referendum asks if
students should be allowed the option Of
self-evaluation to supplement their regular course
grades. Mr. Kole said a grade is often based on one
term paper. However, that grade does not indicate
what the student got out of the course. If a
student felt his grade was unjust, he could submit
a self-evaluation, explaining what he read, wrote
and the grade he thought he deserved.
Presently, students may take up to 25% of
their courses pass-fail. The final question enquires
whether students feel this ceiling is too high, too
low, or enough. Mr. Kole personally judged this
system fair under the present grading system.
However, one faculty member noted that
pass-fails are generally disliked by graduate
schools, cautioning students to be careful and
especially not to use the option in their major
courses.

�Student housing planned near Amherst campus
by Amy Donkin
Campus Editor

The availability of low-cost student housing outside
the dormitories will be a primary concern when the State
University of Buffalo makes its final transition from Main
Street to the Amherst Campus.
Students and administration officials from the
University will be increasingly invited to cooperate with the
State Urban Development Corporation (UpC) in planning
such housing for its 2000-acre Audubon “New Community”
under construction just north of the Amherst Campus. When
completed in about IS years, Audubon will include 9000
housing units, commercial centers, parks, recreation areas
and major roadways for an estimated 27,500 residents, most
of whom will be attracted to the area by the new campus.
According to UDC spokesman Wolfgang Rosenberg,
no definite plans have been made for accommodating
students, although there are a number of possibilities that
might prove feasible. Audubon is presently in the process of
constructing its first block of townhouses, almost half of
which will be subsidized through federal and state financing.
Additionally, 20% of the rents in the entire town will be
subsidized. Mr. Rosenberg said students whose annual
incomes fall within a set range could be eligible for this type
of housing.
On-campus housing
He also noted there are several open areas on campus
grounds which have not been earmarked for academic

facilities. Interest has been expressed on the part of
University planning agencies (Facilities Planning, SUNY,
etc.) and UDC to build an on-campus commercial center
with apartments geared specifically towards students. Mr.
Rosenberg said the possibility of such a venture, whichcould
consist of a shopping center, professional offices, a bank and
housing, would depend upon economic feasibility and
whether other planning in the community might affect the
success of thepxgject.
There has been speculation that some development,
possibly student housing, could take place on 500 acres of
land owned by the Faculty-Student Association north of the
Audubon sites, but Mr. Rosenberg denied that any serious
discussion had occurred.

Planning problems
The many problems in planning student housing
account for the fact that little has been done in the Audubon
community. Scholastic Housing, a student group,had hoped
to obtain grant money to develop student housing, but
President Nixon’s proposed new housing program makes no
provisions for such grants, Mr. Rosenberg said. However, he
mentioned that the program provides funds directly to
low-income people and It might be possible to include
students in this category, if the Administration plan is passed

by Congress.
Mr. Rosenberg also pointed out that Audubon would
have to design housing that will suit students but may also be
utilized by non-students and families. The Audubon
Community will contain various amenities that will be

Mr. Rosenberg would like to see Audubon begin to
formalize student input. “Open communication in an
advisory capacity with Audubon and student organizations
(Scholastic Housing Corporation and SA) might be
worthwhile for all concerned,” he said. President Robert
Ketter sits on the Audubon Board of Directors and might be
able to use his influence as a member. Although it has only
met four times since its inception last April, the Board will
be a likely forum for discussing the student housing
situation.
Groundbreaking for the first residential construction
site began during the summer. In addition to townhouses,
Audubon will build a variety of private and semi-detached
houses, and garden apartments for all income groups. All
housing will be open to students, although a large percentage
of it does not fall within a student price range. In an effort to
absorb the impact of the new University, Audubon is
accounting for 15,000 faculty and employees who will move
to the area.

According to Mr. Rosenberg, past concern over
community objection to the Allenhurst apartments and
off-campus housing near the Main Street campus has led
Audubon to question whether it should build scatter or
cluster site housing for students. This matter wil) have to be
discussed thoroughly by both residents and students.

F. Lorenzetti and members of CAC. The ruling came
last spring semester when the Student Affairs Office
questioned the nature of expenditures for CAC
activities.
CAC is funded by mandatory student fees, whose
expenditures must conform to SUNY Board of
Turestees’ Rules and Regulations. Last May 17, Dr.
Lorenzetti, Student Association (SA), Sub-Board and
CAC representatives decided that volunteers’
reimbursements for personal expenses would not be
allowed. The minutes of the meeting explained that
the logic and justification behind the ban was “that
the individuals freely choose to volunteer, resulting in
an opportunity cost to them in time, energy and any
personal expenses incurred in volunteering.”
However, CAC director Mark Carlin objected,
emphasizing that many students would be prohibited
from volunteering due to the repetitive costs of bus
travel, car usage and tickets for cultural or recreational
activities. Furthermore, Mr. Carlin felt “the CAC
activities do fit the Board’s guidelines,” which state
that funds may be used for “programs ofcultural and

What is America’s role in this? The U.S.

Most everyone is tired of Vietnam in
one way or another, yet this is tragic
because the war is not yet over for the
Indochinese or for us and our war-makers.
While overt fighting is still occuring, there
is another war being waged; one which has
received little attention. I am referring to
the treatment given to Vietnamese civilians
by the Thieu government in its efforts to

keeps General Thieu afloat by funding 90%
of his government’s costs. Included in these
are the costs of his police and prison

programs. The Nixon Administration is
presently seeking Congressional approval
for continued funding of the Thieu
government. Over $15 million is explicitly
earmarked for Thieu’s police and prison
programs. This is in violation of the Paris
Agreements and it actually represents just a
fraction of the money which would
actually be channeled into these programs.
The American Taxpayer has unwittingly
become an accomplice to cruel and unjust
acts of dimensions which defy our

unpopularity.

In the areas of South Vietnam
controlled by Gen. Thieu, civilians can be
arbitrarily arrested, interrogated, tortured
and imprisoned without trial. Laws have
been instituted which rationalize these
practices; for instance, a neutralist who
neither opposes nor supports the Thieu
government
is legally defined as a
“Pro-Communist.” Such a person may be a
student, a teacher, a farmer, a religious
leader, a housewife, a small child or an
80-year old grandparent, whose only
“crime" is disagreement with or failure to
support the Thieu government, or being in
the wrong place at the wrong time. These
are the people whose freedom and political
participation are desparately needed if

Vietnam; yet these same people are the
victims of the harshly repressive police and
prison programs of Gen. Thieu.

appreciation.

‘Routine’ suffering?
The Thieu government is going to
increasing lengths to disarm criticism of its
treatment of Vietnamese civilians. Despite
massive evidence to the contrary, in his
recent trip to Rome, Thieu told Pope Paul
that there are no political prisoners in
Vietnam. Many first-hand sources have
reported that the South Vietnamese police
are systematically altering the classification
of political prisoners to common law
criminals.
On CBS’s April 8 Face the Nation, Gen.
Thieu declared that his prison system was
open for inspection, yet one week later,
Detroit Bishop Thomas Gumbleton’s
request to this effect was refused. Thieu
has claimed that the International Red
Cross has given its “seal of approval” to the
living conditions in his prisons, yet this has
been repeatedly denied by the Red Cross.
To say the war is not over is to be a

Funded by U.S. dollars

To get an idea of the enormity of the
situation, it is necessary to speak of
numbers. Reliable sources have estimated
that there are about 200,000 Vietnamese
civilians imprisoned by Thieu for political
purposes. We must remember that each one

nuisance or bore. Perhaps it is as Bishop
Gumbleton relates, that “the accounts of
torture and imprisonment... can become
something quite routine. Our senses
become dulled, and we accept the dullness
rather than the pain.” But, he reminds us:
“For each person there, the suffering, as
suffering always is, is unique and
profoundly personal.”
It isImportant to remember that when a
large segment of the public expressed
outrage over the imprisonment of 600
American POW’s, it became clear that a
political arrangement facilitating their
release would have to be sought quickly.
And in the meantime, public pressure

forced the North Vietnamese to improve
the living conditions of their prisoners.
Commenting on his recent experiences
in South Vietnam. Bishop Gumbleton said:

“I will never forget the pleas of
everyone I met
especially the prisoners'
families and the released prisoners
to
publicize what is happening to them. Their
only hope for some relief is that enough
people will come to know about them and
bring about some kind of public pressure.
It is necessary that large numbers of people
join the effort to bring justice and freedom
to these people. Left to themselves, they
are helpless.”

What to do?
1. Give voice to your concern by visiting, calling
or writing letters to Senator Jacob Javits and
your Congressional Representative. Both Houses
of Congress are currently considering legislation
which would continue to finance the Thieu
government. Urge your Congressman to make
sure no money is given to South Vietnam for

police and prison programs.

Senator Abourezk of South Dakota has
offered two amendments to the Foreign
Assistance Act which, if passed, would block all
U.S. funding of police, prison, and internal
security programs in foreign countries and
prohibit all foreign aid to any government which

imprisons civilians for political purposes. Many
Senators are supporting these amendments, yet
Senator Javits remains silent.

Of the local Representatives, Thaddeus Dulski
has voted most consistently against the War, yet
even he has been silent about ending U.S.
complicity with the Saigon treatment of
Vietnamese civilians.

Vietnam

Political suspects still held
Editor’s note: The following is an excerpt from

"Report on Quang Ngai (Vietnam) province since
the January ceasefire."

There are approximately 2500 civilians
currently imprisoned for political reasons in Quang
Ngai Province. During our two years of work in
Quang Ngai we met and spoke with several hundred
prisoners at various prison facilities. Not once did we
ever meet a prisoner -who had been arrested for
criminal reasons.
In our daily contact with prisoners we
continued to see the same prisoners after' the
ceasefire agreement who were held before the
accords. One particular example is that of a
67-year-old woman prisoner, Phan thi Thi. She was
picked up on November 17,1972 in Mo Due district
of Quang Ngai Province while she was carrying two
pounds of rice on a road that was considered
“insecure.” She was broutfit to the police
headquarters in Mo Due where she was interrogated,
beaten and tortured. During the beating she suffered
injuries to her brain which caused her to be
paralyzed on one side of her body. When we first
saw her on the prison ward of the hospital, she was
lying on cardboard with a hole cut in it through
which she defecated and she wore no clothes.
Besides being paralyzed she was in such an emaciated
and weakened state, weighing about 70 pounds,
that
she was unable to care for herself and the other
prisoners had to feed her.

a subsidy increase of two cents a meal. Presently the
government reimburses the schools $.08 for every
lunch served. The House proposes to raise this to
$.10. New York State schools also receive an
additional $.02 per meal from a state subsidy.
The Senate version of the bill would raise the
federal subsidy to as much as $.12 a meal, with
provisions for additional increases if the cost of food
goes up. Another amendment to the House bill
involves the reduced-rate lunch program, allowing
more children to participate by increasing the
income level for eligibility. Presently the income

also taken into consideration. This way, families
whose income exceeds the federal guidelines but

can qualify for free meals in school. Buffalo has no
reduced-rate programs.

Holding the line
According to Ms. Josephine Rise, the Food
Service Supervisor of the Buffalo public schools, the
Buffalo schools have been able to hold the line on
food costs, unlike some of the suburban districts
which she claims have a harder time maintaining
costs since they get less in Federal subsidies. Several
of these districts such as Lewiston Porter, Orchard
Park and Lakeshore Central have begun contracting
from private food companies. Ms. Riso feels that
efforts such as these to curb price hikes are made at

ECONOMICS LESSON #1

Possible life on Mars studied
Scientists at the State University of Buffalo,
backed by a $120,000 National Aeronautics and
Space Administration (NASA) grant, are trying to
determine if there is life on Mars.
The study is aimed at providing NASA with
information on present and future exploration and
search for life on the planet and the possibility of
bringing back such life to earth for study.
James Danielli, director of the University’s
Center for Theoretical Biology and principal
investigator for the new program, said Monday the
new study was prompted by findings of the Mariner

“Basically, our ultimate purpose is to analyze
the physical state of Mars, while analysing and
incorporating what we know of the nature of life, to
arrive at what form of life should be looked for and
where to look for it,” Dr. Danielli said.
If there is no life, he said, the group will try to
determine “what form of life could be introduced.”
“If there is life,” he said, “should it be left alone
or examined, and perhaps even changed to
accommodate human needs?”

�DITORIAL.

Grades and the system
"The job of the school system is to sort people out; to tell the
colleges end universities, end eventually the grad schools and

corporations, who's reedy for more of the same."
-Richard Sslzer, professor of Education,
State University at Buffalo
&gt;

Today's referendum on grading is really asking: "How to you
measure the value of education?" Ever since our first grade report
cards, we have been indoctrinated to believe that scholastic excellence
should be measured in numbers and letters. If someone got a 90 or an
A, he was a superior student, even if he forgot everything a week after
the final exam. If someone else bombed that final exam, though, with
the resulting effect of a 70 or a C. he was a poor student no matter
how much he learned, no matter if that knowledge served him for a
lifetime.
We have been so socialized to competing for grades that we've lost
the idea that quality education is supposed to teach people to think for
themselves and ask questions. Instead, our public schools demanded
memorization and regurgitation of facts to achieve society's external
rewards: high marks, parental approval, acceptance into a "good"
college. Creativity and contemplation didn't figure in this equation;
arguing with a teacher for a 92 instead of a 91 did.
As we climbed the educational ladder, any concept of "learning"
became more and more meaningless; high schoolers in this state truly
believe that their sole purpose in school is to "pass the Regents" and
"beat out" their college-bound competition. Freshmen who make that
"good" college often try to take a breather, to take courses that
interest them and forget about grades for awhile. But by the time they
are sophomores, they are once again caught in the med school/law
school/grad school syndrome, and grades and test scores loom larger
than ever.
No one is denying that competition for grad schools and jobs, just
like the struggle for college, is very real. But our colleges are more and
more becoming a mechanized system for economic productivity which
process, sort out, label, stamp and spit forth products to be fitted into
slots required by society. Those who successfully play the game are
rewarded with status and better-paying jobs; but the price is the same
only this
conformity, the same endless striving for external rewards
time it's corporation brownie points instead of grades, money and color
TV's instead of A's.
What role to grades play in this framework? Ideally, if every
student knew his professor well, if every course was a seminar of
small-group discussion and outside research, the instructor's written
evaluation of the student's grasp of the course material would serve
admirably. But when classes grow too large for first-name contact, tests
are substituted for first-hand appraisal, and grades are substituted for
more in-depth evaluation.
In this sense, grades are a necessary evil. Where time and class size
preclude a comprehensive evaluation of strengths and weaknesses, the
arbitrary labeling of grading must suffice Tom is an A student. Bill is
only a B student. If Bill had gotten two more questions right on the last
test, he would have been an A student
but would he have been any
smarter? Is it possible a C student who may not take tests or write
papers well could learn more from a course than all those rated A?
Once we get caught up in the competition for grades, we lose sight of
the fact that grades are arbitrary labels

by lanis Cromer

The last year of high school and the first two
years of undergraduate school are often remarkably
similar. Perhaps this three-year span should be
shortened by a year or more.
This is the latest finding of the renewed
Carnegie Commission of Crisis in the Classroom
fame.
Why does it always take an
extravagantly-financed, expert-laden investigative
unit years and years of researching to find out what
every high school or college student already knows
and has been complaining about for generations?
Anyone from age 16 to 21 who has suffered
through the public school tragedy (also known
euphemistically as “getting an education”) can
testify to the uselessness of his senior year in high
school. In traditional education’s terms, the year is a
complete waste. As one representative teacher said:
“Seniors never do their homework, and are
interested only in extra-curricular activities, if they
bother to come to school at all.” He quickly added:
“And the second semester is twice as bad as the
first.”
From a more permissive outlook, the senior year
is probably the most enriching. If it’s true that high
school seniors don’t concentrate on French verb
conjugations, trig formulas or Hamlet essay exams,
then they must be having a pretty good time. They
probably spend more time interacting with their
friends and pursuing their individual interests, right?
Unfortunately, the permissive viewpoint is as far
off base as the traditional perspective. High school
seniors are neither merely goofing off nor are they
relishing their freedom. More than anything else,
not learning.

1 don’t have to go to class unless I want to go. No
more detention hall.” Yet the absence of dismissal
bells and of a seven-period day are only the
superficial differences between high school and
college.
The “teacher-as-the-fountain-of-knowledge”
image is even more prevalent in the university
setting. The teacher, as the theory goes, knows
everything that needs to be known. The major
concern, then, is how to get the knowledge out of
the teacher and into the minds of students.
Therefore, the more students that can be crammed
into one lecture hall within hearing distance of the
all-knowing professor, the more efficiently the
university staff is being utilized.
One seminar can perpetuate a freshman’s
idealism. In the smaller class, a teacher may ask a
student’s opinion. This being a new and flattering
experience for him or her, the student can react in
one of two ways: l)“Shit, finally, someone actually
cares what 1 think” or 2)“Shit, I’d better do the
work for this class. Mow does that professor want me
to answer?” More -than likely the typical student,
pumped full of years of grade-grubbing, opts for the
latter response.
Why not? The greatest similarity between high
school and college is the system of reward. College
grades are held over everyone’s head as the ultimate
sanction, just as they are in hi#i school. Only in the
university, the consequences of a “lousy grade point
average’’ are portrayed as even more drastic. Now,
it’s not “you won’t get into college.” The university
warning is: “You won’t get into law school, med
school” or “you won’t find a job.” (Since when will
an ‘A’ in Psych 101 guarantee employment?)
Grades are still regarded as the student
motivator. Both high school and college adhere to
the philosophy: “Without grades, no learning will
take place.”
Interaction with people and emotions are
ignored in the college setting just as they were in
high school. These concerns, at best, are regarded as

“extracurricular.”
High school is compartmentalized: English
first period; Spanish second period; Lunch third
period; etc. What happened in English bears little
relation to the information transmitted in Spanish.
College is just as fragmented: Monday,
Wednesday and Friday at 10 a jn. Chemistry 201;
at 1 p.m. Issues and Ideologies; 2 p.m. eat lunch in
the Rat; etc. And the fact that you have a major
does little to integrate the various courses.
So, the Carnegie Commission proposes to
eliminate one of these years of schooling. Perhaps
the senior year in high school should go. Or maybe
undergraduate school should end after the junior

year.

However, improving the quality of education
would be a more fruitful change than simply
reducing its duration. (For a start, why not work on
eliminating die built-in competitive nature of the
schools?)
On the other hand, if the findings of the
renowned Carnegie Commission result in getting

Set the record straight
To the Editor:

-In the Friday, September 28 issue of The
Spectrum, the letter by Mr. Joel Altsman charged
the Jon Dandes’ SA Administration with thrdwing
away money. As evidence he cited a figure of “over
$100” which was allegedly used to feed Jack

by Clan Coined

Anderson and members of the Student Association
Executive Committee when Mr. Anderson was in
Buffalo a few weeks ago. To set the record straight,
costs for the dinner did not exceed $60, of which
about half was paid for by the Graduate Student
Association who co-sponsored Mr. Anderson’s
appearance on campus. Two of the SA officials who
attended the dinner that evening had their dinners
paid for by personal means. The editors of The
Spectrum and Ethos were also in attendance at the
dinner. They were invited due to the nature of Mr.
Anderson's field. Spending in this case was more
than justifiable.
The present SA administration, which inherited
an abominable financial situation, can claim fiscal
responsibility as a result of SA treasurer Kenny
Unker putting a handle on the crisis and wiping out
all the debts. It too often happens that people attack
the SA for wrong doings without making sure that
their facts are straight first. I hope that this letter
clears up any misconceptions that Mr. Altsman
might have had.

There isn’t a columnist made who doesn’t
occasionally feel his life would be much easier if
he wrote in someone else’s style. It’s a delusion,
of course, but one that becomes increasingly
attractive after a week of trying to find humor in
John Connally’s Freudian slip, a record squid
catch in California, some Columbus, Ohio English
teachers who saw fit to censor Edgar Lee Masters’
Spoon River Anthology and the Ira Liebowitz for
Mayor campaign (Mary Levinson, where are you
when we need you?). So if you indulge a harried,
tired,.columnist this week. I’ll try to show my
appredation by not writing anything next week.
We could try The Grump by Eric Steese.
Steese is our resident mystery man we’ve found
columns of his back as far as 1965 and we
haven’t stopped looking. How would he deal with
the problem of having nothing to write?
Boredom. Drifting aimlessly in and out of
relationships, avoiding closeness, not getting into
anyone else’s head because you never quite
believe they can be just as lonely as you are. Well,
a little Jack Daniels does wonders when a certain
lady gets on you for feeling so sorry for yourself.
Sometimes it gets to you and you sit at the
typewriter for hours with your stream of
consciousness blocked up. This week I just can’t
seem to get it together. Went to Toronto with a
picnic lunch, two ham and swiss cheese
sandwiches, two corned beef, one bag of potato
chips and three large dill pickles wrapped in wax
paper. And a fifth of Jack Daniels. Huh? I find a
place to stand inside my own head, but it
restricts my movement and I get lost. What am I
doing? What am I saying? Why have 1 done this
for 8 or 9 or however many years it’s been? I
don’t know. See you next week.

Pete Ha mill, maybe?
Here in Queens you see things differently
than they do in Washington. Last night I drove in
from Bay Ridge and went to Clancy’s, an
immigrant workingman’s bar in the Irish section
of Queens. But it isn’t all Irishmen here.
There’s Stan, a second-generation Pole who
drives a beer truck during the day. He sometimes
delivers to Clancy’s; today he dropped off four
halves of Bud, two cases of Harp, six cases of,
Schlitz, a half of Miller and three cases of
Ballantine Ale. Next to him is Spiros
Aganastopoulous, a foreign-born Greek
bricklayer working on a new mall someplace
where he could not afford to shop. Then there’s
Tony, a big, hulking Italian. His father came over
in 1936 because he couldn’t face Mussolini. Tony
has a large American flag in his basement where
he keeps his old Korean War uniform.
So 1 ask them about the Agnew
investigation. These immigrants and sons of
immigrants understand these things. “Huh,” asks
Stan, and I know he means something more than
that. I press on asking question after question.
Finally Clancy comes out from behind the bar
and, while Spiros and Tony hold my arms, he
punches me in the mouth. “Radical weirdo,” he
growls.
Then there was my predecessor in this spot
Harvy Lipman. Those of you
who are juniors or better, remember him. Perhaps
you read his article in last year’s Dimension on
the 1970 riots. If you’ve never read him. it’s
about time you did:
If there’s one thing I hate, it’s writers (?)
who spend a lot of time and print telling you
they have nothing to write. It’s absolutely
sickening. The disgusting aspect of this farce is
that year after year we get the same incompetent,
egocentric, inept and outright dishonest downs
filling blank spaces on the editorial page of this
newspaper (?).
Somebody out there in this zoo ought to be
able to come up with something like grammatical
English prose on a real topic once a week Maybe
it’s the mud and slop of Buffalo, with the most
corrupt city government this side of Chicago and
a culture (?) that would depress even a University
administrator. What this really amounts to is a
plea. A plea to someone who’s not afraid to say
something once a week. A plea for someone to
take over the Wednesday column after I’ve been
here two years. This is getting ridiculous and
we’re not even making an effort.
two years ago

Qi how about Howie Kurtz? He had a
column last year before he became editor. Let’s
see how he would put the problem of having
nothing to say In Perspective:
I haven’t seen The New York Times all week.
Somebody stole my copies of Time, Newsweek
and Psychology Today. But I’ll try to come up
with something.
The Nixon Administration has once again
shown its callous disregard for human welfare.
Don’t ask me what Nixon did
remember, 1
haven’t seen the Times all week but you know
damn well he had to do something. The results of
his latest action will mean further cutbacks in
needed domestic programs and inflation of the
military budget. (So what if it was only
proclaiming National Pickle Week; that’s what
everything he does means.)
As we face a potential nuclear holocaust,
Nixon plays world statesman while the country
rots from within. Psychology Today had an
article with a theory to explain what’s wrong
with everything, but I don’t remember what it
was
my copy is gone. I really wish I could tell
you what Nixon did this week to get me mad,
but I don’t really know. A friend did tell me

Bob Burrick, Chairman

This is in reference to Helen Applebaum’s letter
in The Spectrum of last Sept. 28 implying that I
purposely made a misleading statement concerning
grading policies at other schools.
When I had talked to Larry Kraftowitz (the
writer of the article in question), it was understood
at the time of the interview, that of the schools that
had answered my survey, it was obvious that most of
those schools had an ABCDF system with a pass-fail
option. It it regrettable that the limited nature of the
responses had not been emphasized. The survey was
intended to give the Student Association an idea of
not only what kind of a grading system a particular
school may hive, but the degree of acceptance on
the part of the students and the kinds of alternatives
(if any) that were under consideration.
I would be the first person to admit that my
findings are statistically invalid but it was neither my
intention to develop a statistical analysis nor should
the findings be construed as such.

But enough of this. Perhaps it was a mistake
to do it this early, but I’ve done my obligatory “I
don’t have anything to write about” column,
gotten it out of my system and feel refreshed and
ready to take on the assorted fools, scoundrels
and hypocrites that infest our world next week.

This summer I read Donald Ross’ A Public
Citizen-Action Manual. (Don is the Director of the
New York State PIRGs.) After a first reading 1 am
more convinced than ever that we need a PIRG here.
PIRG’s have the best track going for citizen action

needs, shifting the tax burden, and making

government agencies responsive.
Do not miss the all-important referendum this

consider your three dollars an investment in a serious
movement for truth and justice in our society.
“In our interdependent society, applying our
resources and skills toward a continual elevation of
the human condition should become an integral part
of our way of life. Citizen action is the most
important job in a democracy, and only can fill it.”

the opportunity to vote in referendum to decide
whether or not to assess yourselves a $3 refundable

citizen and consumer advocate I strongly urge you to
vote in this referendum and support the proposition.
There is a serious movement afoot in this country to
put a stop to rampant false advertising, shoddy

consumers we are victimized by them all. But for
such a movement to be successful two things are

The fall semester of the current academic year is
well under way and th.e first meeting of YOUR
STUDENT ASSEMBLY was held this past Tuesday
evening. The problems and issues that have
confronted us in the past remain very much at large.
There are serious problems that must be considered
they range from arming of Campus Security to
academic grading revision. All of these questions
need serious consideration which means student
involvement. Too long has your student government
remained in' a state of semi-consciousneis existence.
Government on any level will fuction only to the
means and extent that people allow.
Your student government is in desperate need of
a student involvement transplant. You are the
government, make your voices and views heard.
After all, you are paying dearly for Government
inaction. This student body is not ready for the
“Geritol” crowd.

Purge PIRG

•

To the Editor:
Having already once been subjected, on another
campus, to PIRG’s purse-string pursuit, I’ve become
somewhat numb going through the same exact thing
here at UB. So it was only the shock and outrage of
seeing my beloved alma mater (Cornell) viciously
slandered by PIRG co-chairman Michele Smith, in
Monday’s The Spectrum, that now moves me to

action, for I am now convinced that PIRG’s
spokesmen are not only incipient demagogues, but
liars as well.
Ms. Smith states in her The Spectrum letter that
NYPIRG “now includes such schools as Queens
College, RP1, Syracuse, Cornell..The implication
is that student boides at these schools have chosen
non-voluntary funding of PIRG, and that we should
follow suit. This is false. In the spring of 1972 I
watched PIRG at Cornell go through the exact same
moves it is going through here. First there was the
proposal for a mandatory fee increase. When
students objected to being forcibly taxed by their
peers (taxation being theft), PIRG proposed a little
box on tuition bills, the trick being that you checked
it if you didn’t want to cough up the dough. While at
UB matters haven’t progressed beyond that point, it
was obvious then (and it’s goddam obvious now)
that PIRG is still relying on student apathy, rather
than interest, to get their money. Why should people
have to act if they’re not interested; why should
they have to go to the Bursar’s Office, or even check
a little box, if they don’t want anything to do with
this organization? Quite simply, they shouldn’t. At
Cornell a positive check-off was finally used (you
checked it if you wanted to pay) and 1973 saw a
PIRG which could barely afford office rent (that was
how much genuine interest they managed to arouse).
It seems that at UB neither The Spectrum not
the SA nor PIRG understands what voluntarism
entails (though it could be better argued that PIRG,
from past experience, knows only too well).
Voluntarism means that if a person wants to do
something, he takes those steps necessary to do it.
He does not depend on would-be non-participants to
extricate themselves from his plans through their
efforts, nor does he hope they will acquiesce to his
plans through indifference or forgetfulness or
apathy. It’s his project; let him do what he can and
it’s
persuade whom he can. The Spectrum,
Monday editorial, thinks that a negative check-off

solves the problem of voluntarism. The Spectrum is
wrong. PIRG claims that a negative check-off solves

the problem, but it knows that this only hides it.
PIRG is right.
The same editorial leaves some other questions
unanswered, among them being the question of just
what the The Spectrum is advocating. The editorial
states, with commendable insight, that “if students
want to approve a $3 increase to fund this valuable
organization, that’s fine." (Bear in mind that the
same column, five paragraphs earlier, reads “we only
object to the way in which WNYP1RG is seeking
through a S3 increase in the mandatory
funding
student fee.”) What about those students who,
because they’re either too dumb or too poor or too
strongly opposed, don’t wish to pay or waste their
time waiting for refunds? What if those students
don’t care that perhaps they’re in an electoral
minority? What if they don’t care to have others
decide these matters for them? Will The Spectrum
•ay “that’s democracy in action?” Will The
Spectrum say “UB/PIRG, love it or leave it?” Or will
The Spectrum add to its collection of blisters by still
one more turn at fence-straddling on an issue?
I began this letter with a reference to the
incipient demagoguery of PIRG leaders and
supporters. I call it “incipient,” because at least for
the time being, it’s kept half-hidden. A previous
letter-writer urges students to “forego a couple of
beers,” when he really means “give me your money
whether you like it or not;” Ms. Smith states that
without a mandatory fee rise, WNYP1RG can’t join
NYPIRG, as if this piece of red tape regarding a
conjoining of acronyms justifies our forgetting the
real issues involved. And so on. The demogoguery is
incipient. It’s so incipient you can smell it.
As a final note, I’d like to consider just what
level of benefits we can expect from this group. Will
it be creative, imaginative, innovative? Consider
these two examples:
a) the recent PIRG pricing survey ends by saying
“we will be expending $200,000 a week into the
surrounding area spend it wisely.”
b) Co-chairman Smith ends her letter with “I
urge you to consider the issues and vote as you see
fit.”
With creative advice like that. I’d do better
talking to myself in my sleep. Oink.

Registration horrors

May I call your attention to a serious and
inexcusable blunder made by the Office of
Admissions and Records. Academic Checkstops were
erroneously placed on the registration of 300 foreign
students.
During the weekend of 9/23-9/24, the Office
of Admissions and Records attempted to complete
its invoice billing for the fall semester. As part of
that billing process, it received the normal and
regular request from the Office of Foreign Affairs to
bill (or delete) 300 foreign students for a special
insurance policy. (This insurance policy gives the
individual additional coverage because of the general
absence of dependents in the U.S.A. or the benefits
special medical policies). This request was completed
on 300 standard ‘Academic Action Request’ forms;
one for each student concerned. The appropriate
box marked ‘Foreign Student Insurance’ was
checked on each form. However, instead of billing
300 students with insurance, the Office of
Admission and Records sought it fit to read the
request forms as ‘Academic Checkstops’ (300 times).
No such action was indicated on any of the
above-mentioned forms.
Ai a result, foreign students collecting their
registration cards early this week have been
disappointed and confused by the checkstops placed
on their registration; not to mention all the timeand
effort that went into the preparation of these forms
before the billing date. The Office of Admissions and
Records is presently trying to recover their
professional esteem by hand-processing the
registration of those affected and 1 could only hope
that everything will be done correctly this time
around.
Alas! We have another ‘horror story* of
academic registration; one that can be so easily
avoided if attention was paid to simple instructions,
written 300,300, 300
300 times.

Germany unification?
East German Foreign Minister Otto
Winzer said Monday that unification with
West Germany will never be possible.
In his first policy speech to the General
Assembly, Winzer took issue with West
German Chancellor Willy Brandt and his
foreign minister, Walter School, both of
whom told the Assembly the Bonn
government would continue to work for
reunification of the two Germanys.
"But what is possible, and necessary, are
good-neighborly relations of peaceful
between

Democratic Republic and the Federal
Republic of Germany in the spirit of the
charter of the United Nations.
“Such durable realtions of peaceful
co-cxistance between the two, German
states will have a beneficial effect not only
in Europe but also in worldwide
international relations and organizations.”
Nixon confers on European trade
President Nixon opened discussions
with European Commission President
Francis Xavier Ortoli Monday on trade and
economic problems between the United
States and the European Common Market.
Ortoli told newsmen on arrival Sunday
he expected to explore with Nixon the
differing U.S. and European points of view
on the new Atlantic charter proposed
earlier this year by Kissinger. He said that
he did not fully understand those
differences.
Ortoli said he did not expect to discuss
the question of Nixon’s proposed visit to
Europe late this year or early next but said
he is interested in learning from the
President the prospects for the trade bill
now before Congress.

police agencies to require immediately that
newly hired policemen have at least one

MIAMI (UP1)
Elliot Roosevelt met

preparation for a Senate subcommittee

Bahamas’ Premier Lyndon Pindling.
The former Miami Beach mayor and son
of the late President Franklin D. Roosevelt

Portugal. He is scheduled to testify

Wednesday in Washington.
“My reason for coming to Miami is to
meet with my attorneys here and attempt
to reconstruct all that I did during the time
when those charges were levied against
me,” Roosevelt said Saturday.
Roosevelt said, however, the allegations
were false. He said Lopara might have
made them because Roosevelt had backed

out of a business deal because of Lopara’s

Contributing Editor

As the baseball season came to a close, Ralph
Houk resigned as New York Yankee manager, while
just as the basketball season is getting underway,
Wilt Chamberlain signed a contract as player-coach
of the ABA’s San Diego Conquistadors. Houk cried
at his press conference; Wilt laughed all the way to
the bank. One man left a position in which he
seemed so secure while the other took a position it
seemed he’d never want.

The much-maligned Yankee skipper seemed to
finally have a winner this year, as the Bronx
Bombers happily rode atop the American League’s
Eastern Division in June and July. It appeared that
the eternal optimist had finally been vindicated.
Within weeks, the bottom fell out and criticism was
leveled against Houk faster than indictments came
out of Watergate. Harry Walker once said it best; “It
is easier to fire one manager than 25 ballplayers.”

Houk was accused of mishandling pitchers,
making bad trades, not playing Ron Blomberg
enough, using Spanky Lyle too much, playing people
out of position and anything else that went wrong.
He has been called “the major” and been thought of
as a hard-nosed tyrant. Strangely enough, if the man
had one fault, it was too much patience. Time and
time again in the last few years, he continued to use
players that were doing poorly, confident that they
would come around. Many never did and it hurt the
club immeasurably.
Optimism vanishes
Last Sunday the optimism was gone, and his
patience had run out. He was convinced that the
team needed another man and it was time to step
down.

There is more than money to Chamberlain’s latest
move, though $600,000 a year is ample incentive to

jump to the American Basketball Association. It is
the fact that the big man will now be a coach that is
so fascinating.

Chamberlain’s early image was that of an
introverted, sensitive, seven-foot superstar. He
wanted to hide from the world but he couldn’t. He
wanted privacy and he bitterly resented the lack of
it. One reporter wrote in the early ’60’s, that if
Chamberlain and President Kennedy would walk
down the street side by side, each wearing a
conservative grey suit, people would stop and say,
“Hey, isn’t that Wilt Chamberlain?”
Insecure and struggling with his identity,
Chamberlain finally found a home in California.
Almost overnight be lost his super-sensitivity and
opened himself up. Suddenly, he found a way to live
with his image and to like it.
Wilt’s million-doUar home is the manifestation of
his new self. He has designed it in his own image
super-big. Instead of hiding and telling the world to
keep away, he built a mansion on a hill and invited
the world to come and see it.
—

Now Wilt is to coach the Young Conquistadors.
He can’t (as Bill Russell did) put John Havlicek in
charge on the floor and let things happen. San Diego
has no Havlicek. Chamberlain has to teach as well as
lead by example. The question is, has he come full
cycle enough from the early days to meet this
challenge?

�Soccer record drops
to 1-2 with loss to Ohio
by Dave Hnath
Spectrum Stiff Writer

Buffalo’s soccer Bulls, traveling
out of state for the first time in
their short history, were blanked
by
of Ohio
the Bobcats
University, 4-0 last Saturday. The
Bulls record dropped to 1-2, as
they failed to win on Saturday for
the fourth consecutive time.
The conditions under which
the game was played were trying.
The match, played at 10 a.m., was
contested on the outfield of the
baseball diamond. “I’m sure the
condition of the field hurt us
some,” remarked Buffalo coach
Sal Esposito. “Part of the field
was on the baseball infield (dirt),
and the rest was on long, uncut
grass in the outfield. We hadn’t
practiced on the field, so we
weren’t used to it. I’m not trying
to take anything away from the
Ohio team. They were one goal
better than we were, but they
definitely weren’t four goals
better.”

Penalty kick crucial
The officials called a tight
game, whistling 19 offsides calls
against the Bobcats, and calling a
crucial penalty against Buffalo as
the first half ended. Ohio scored
on the ensuing penalty kick, taken
after time had elapsed in the first
half, to give them a comfortable
3-0 halftime margin. Esposito felt
the Bulls were also entitled to a
couple of penalty shots in the
second half. “I do believe there
were two penalties we should have
had. One was wlien 'Doug
•

(Leininger) was pushed in front of
the Ohio goal, and the other a
handball that was definitely inside
the penalty area, but was called as
outside. We dominated the second
half, but we didn’t get the

breaks.”
The Bulls, outshot 14?2 in the
first half, nearly opened the
scoring when forward Jim Ypung
hit the crossbar with a head shot.
Ohio then tallied four unanswered
goals. John Felgemacher, who
picked up a goal and two assists in
this, his first college game, said,
“I’m really excited I scored today.
I really wanted a goal today, this
being my first college game, and
against my hometown school.”

SPORTS INFORMATION

LATE
NEWS FLASHES
, President Nixon “specifically” authorized the use of
“covert” tactics by White House officials to obtain
information about Daniel Ellsberg, according to the
grand jury testimony of former domestic advisor John
Ehrlichman.
Mr. Ehrlichman’s testimony made it dear that
President Nixon took a direct, active part in establishing
and supervising the White House plumbers, created to
investigate news leaks. It was undear, however, if Mr.
Nixon authorized or knew about the major “covert”
operation: The September 1971 break-in at Dr. Ellsberg’s
psychiatrist’s office. Messrs. Ehrlichman and Nixon have
denied that the President had any “foreknowledge” of
any illegal acts such as burglary, although Mr.
Ehrlichman has testified the President has the power to
“authorize” burglaries if necessary.
The new testimony lends credence to former counsel
John Dean’s testimony that he was told by head plumber
Egil Krogh that the Ellsberg burglary order came “right
out of the Oval Office.”

WASHINGTON (UPI)
President Nixon today
ordered a mandatory allocation program for home
heating oil and propane in an effort to soften the impact
of threatened winter shortages.
The White House energy advisor, John E. Love, said
the mandatory system of allocating propane gas under a
priority program would become effective immediately.
Love said it was clear the nation “will experience
some fuel shortages this winter and perhaps over the next
few years.”
The scarcity of home heating oil is likely to be most
pronounced in the Northeast and the Midwest, while
shortages of propane will be greatest in rural,
feed-producing areas, Love said.
He said the purpose of this allocation system is to
insure a more equal distributionof available fuels so that
no single area of the country would suffer undue

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Referendum

Wide range of topics covered
by Richard Korman
Spectrum Staff Writer
Undergraduate students will go to the polls
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday to vote on a variety of
issues and questions. The 11-question referendum will
cover the election of SASU and SUSA delegates, new
grading procedures, a usage survey for Aims and concerts,
and the controversial question of WNYPIRG funding.
In an effort to And out which kinds of activities
students prefer, voters will be asked to indicate their
preferences among art exhibits, coffeehouses, concerts,
dance productions, films, speeches by poets and authors,
and video productions. This may serve as a guide for future
Student Association Activities Committee scheduling.

Monday, 1 October

State University of New York at Buffalo

originated in a Faculty-Senate Subcommittee. They were
then examined by the Academic Affairs Committee of the
Student Assembly last spring and their final
recommendations appear in the referendum.
The Western New York Public Interest Research
Group (WNYPIRG), a consumer research organization, is
seeking funding through a $3 increase in the mandatory
student fee. With this allocation, WNYPIRG will join
state-wide NYPIRG and hopes to expand their efforts and
work to the immediate benefit of University students.
Two objections to funding WNYPIRG from
mandatory student fees are that WNYPIRG may be too
community-oriented to be subsidized by students; others
simply object to raising the mandatory fee. The
referendum specifically asks if students would support a

1973

$3 mandatory fee increase from $67 to $70 to fund
WNYF1RG. If they oppose a fee increase a second
asks if students would like Student Association to
“re-order its priorities" and fund WNYPIRG from within
its existing budget.

At all campuses
Voting machines will be on all campuses of the
University. Voters will be required to identify themselves
as students.
On the Main Campus, voting machines will be in
Norton Center Lounge, Diefendorf 147, and Goodyear
Lobby. Polls will be open on the Main Campus from 10
AM to TPM Wednesday and Thursday, and 10 AM to 3 PM
on Friday. Students can also vote at 4236 Ridge Lea and
the lobby of Lehman Hall at the North Campus from 12
noon to 7 PM Wednesday and Thursday, and 12 noon tp 3
PM on Friday.
Many of the issues that will be decided by the
referendum will effect everyone at the State University of
Buffalo. The Student Association is hoping for a large
turnout.

SASU and SUSA

There are seven delegate seats from the two State
University student organizations to be filled by the
referendum. Four seats at the Student Association of the
State University (SASU) arc open. Candidates are Paul
Kade, Tyrone Saunders, Debbie Benson, Michael Phillips,
Drew Presbcrg, Stuart FroWinger, Bill Atchley and Jeron
Rodgers. Three delegates will be chosen for the State
University Student Assembly .(SUSA). Candidates for
those seats include Paul Kade, Tyrone Saunders, Debbie
Benson, Michael Phillips, Drew Presbcrg and Stuart
Frbhlinger. One seat in each of'these organizations is
automatically filled by SA President Jon Dandes.

Five questions on the referendum deal with student
feelings about grading and alternatives to the present
system. The first question asks if students are satisfied
with the present system of ABCDF; the second question
offers other two alternatives. One is the addition of plus
and minus values to the normal letter grades. The
alternative system is a system of pass, pass with honors, or
fail. Also questioned are student opinions on
self-evaluation, written evaluations by instructors, and the
limit on pass-fail courses.
The main ideas behind the grading proposals

WNYPIRG funding slatedforreferendum
by Howie Kestenbetg
Spectrum Staff Writer

A three-day Student Association (SA)
referendum concerning the funding of the
Western New York Public Interest Researcg
Group begins this Wednesday. Hie first
question asks if students would support a
$3 increase in the $67 mandatory student
fee

to fund

the' consumer

research

organization. If they oppose the fee hike, a
second question asks if students would like
the SA to “reorder its priorities” and fund
WNYPIRG from within its existing budget.
SA President Jon Dandes, who has
opposed funding through a fee increase,
said:“We do not have the power to
authorize use of the mandatory student fee
to hire a full-time professional staff of
doctors, lawyers, etc.” Mr. Dandes
explained that the referendum was being
held to provide needed student input on a
fee increase. Several SA Executive
Committee members, opposed to any fee
hike, expressed their preference for an
attempt to fund WNYPIRG from within its
existing budget.
Mr. Dandes objected to the fact that
University of Buffalo “must bear
State
the
die brunt of the firuncial obligations for an
organization that will benefit other
campuses in the area.” He suggested that
SA obtain firm financial commitments
from other campuses before it promises
such large amounts of money.

Emphasizing the importance of
allocating a mandatory fee to WNYPIRG,
Michelle Smith, the organization’s
co-chairman, said that the group will not
be able to join or vote in die centralized

New York State NYPIRG if they are
forced to depend on a voluntary fee.
Without a definite income WNYPIRG will
have to phase out many of its worthwhile
projects, she added.
However, in a recent interview with
The Spectrum NYPIRG director Donald
Ross explained that even if a three-dollar
allocation was not approved, WNYPIRG
would still be able to join NYPIRG with a
one-shot, $20,000 allocation for a one-year
trial run. During this time. University

students could evaluate WNYPIRG’s
contribution and determine whether it
merited an increased allocation (he
following year. Mr. Ross said of this
altemative:“It’s not the best, but it’s one
we’d be willing to work with.”
One question raised by SA Student
Rights Coordinator Cliff Palefsky
concerned the legality of a $3 increase.
According to Mr. Palefsky, New York State
has set a ceiling at $70 for all mandatory
student fees. Because freshmen and
transfer students pay a $3 orientation fee
in addition to the $67 University fee, they
have already reached thefor the WNYPIRG
fee to be legally justified, it can only apply
to sophmores, juniors and seniors.
The Young Americans for Freedom
(YAF), a campus group advocating the
principles of conservatism and free
enterprise, disagrees with the idea of
mandatory fees and would like to end
them completely. According to YAF
member Jim Wilson Support for student
activities should be voluntary, since it’s our
money being spent.”

Refund possible
On the other hand, Ms. Smith noted
that if the $3 raise goes into effect, any

•

student who does not want to become a
member of WNYPIRG will be entitled to a
refund. Critics have argued that any fee
which must first be paid in order to register
is not truly voluntary refund or not: Mr.
Ross suggested a check-off box on the
tuition bill through which students could
waive the extra $3.
WNYPIRG is actually one part of an
overall super-structure of PIRGs on 138
campuses across the country. PIRGs were
originally established to give students the
opportunity to carry out research on issues
of social concern including environmental,
consumer, and other areas deemed worthy
of investigation and change.
Ms. Smith noted that last year,
WNYPIRG successfully completed two
major projects in the Buffalo area. In one,
students inspected various toy and
department stores, cheddng for toys that
did not meet federal safety regulations.
Participants in the survey discovered many
retailers who were selling toys that were
either federally banned or considered
dangerous to children.
Action by WNYPIRG led to the
passage of a New York State law, giving the
Attorney General greater power to
prosecute retailers for marketing dangerous
toys. A copy of the survey was also sent to
the-Consumer Products Safety Commission
in Washington, D.C. Hie Buffalo Office of
the Food and Drug Administration was
forced to take stronger action against

offenders.
NYSPIRG born
In an attempt to organize all the
PIRGs in New York State under a central
office NYPIRG has recently come into

existence. Presently, an ad hoc committee
representing WNYPIRG is applying to
NYP1RG for local board status. However,
Ms. Smith contends that NYP1RG will not
accept membership from a P1RG that is
not funded by mandatory fees, although
Mr. Ross has explained that other
possibilities do exist.
The referendum has a Complex
background. It is the result of an action by
Mr. Dandes, who in June returned to the
Student Assembly its legislation that the
SA should obtain membership with New
York State (NYPIRG)by entering into a
formal contract. Attached to the motion
was a rider that would have raised the
mandatory student activities by $3 and
subsequently turned the money over to
WNYPIRG.
In a letter addressed to the Student
Assembly, Mr. Dandes explained that
although he “firmly believes in the
philosophy of WNYPIRG,” he felt the
action taken by the Student Assembly at
its meeting last May 16 was “arbitrary and
capricious.”
The motion was proposed after the
Assembly had finished reviewing budgets
for more than six hours. At that time,
about one-half of the members walked out
of the meeting, leaving their voting
instructions to proxies. Out of 32 voting
members, 14 were proxies. The final vote
was 25-7 in favor of the motion.
Mr. Dandes commented/‘The
preponderance of proxy votes was
apparent and led me to question the
validity of the actual vote.” Ms. Smith,
however, objected to Mr. Dandes’ decision
on the grounds that the vote might have
been irregular but was not illegal. . .

Prosser rejected for post
Gelbaum’s decision could be overridden. He hopes
for possible “community action” to alter that

by Doug Radi
Spectrum

Staff Writer

Richard Prosser, nominated for the position of
interim director of the Colleges, was rejected
Wednesday afternoon by Academic Affairs vice
president Bernard Gelbaum.
Mr. Potter had been nominated by the Colleges
Council by a nine-to-one vote over Dr. Gelbaum’s

designee, Curtis Bennett.
College sources reported that Dr. Gelbaum made
the rejection saying that he had “checked out” Dr.
Prosser and found him “not qualified” for the job.
He reportedly did not elaborate.
Dr. Gelbaum announced the rejection
Wednesday afternoon in what was described as a
“thirty-second phone call” to Keith Klopp, the
acting administrative officer of the Collegiate
system. Mr. Klopp later confirmed the report that
Dr. Gelbaum rejected Dr. Prosser on the grounds of
being “not academically acceptable.”
Explanation demanded
A Colleges Council meeting was called last
Thursday in which the members voted to request a
full explanation of why Dr. Prosser was rejected. Dr.
Prosser, attending the meeting, said he had not been
personally informed of the rejection and would not
speculate on why he was turned down. He indicated
at one point he had been assured support by Dr.
Gelbaum. The Academic Affairs vice president could
not be reached for comment.
“Dr. Prosser is still the first choice,” a College E
spokesman said, but he expressed “doubts” that Dr.

decision.
There was also speculation that the Colleges
Council will decide to leave the position of Interim
Director vacant until a permanent director can be
found.
Four applicants for the position of permanent
director have been recommended by a search
committee chaired by William Greiner, associate
provost of the Law School. The committee was
appointed to narrow the list of 200 applicants down
to a manageable number for the Colleges Council to
act upon.
Nominees axed
The four candidates are Francis M. Betts HI,
M.D. Laurence, John- Maynard and R. Lewis Piper.
After interviewing these candidates, the Colleges
Council unanimously decided Mr. Maynard and Mr.
Piper were “totally unacceptable” but added that
this does not necessarily mean Mr. Betts and Mr.
Laurence are satisfactory candidates.
The search committee will meet again October 3
to consider additional nominations to be made by
the Colleges Council. College E plans to introduce
women and minority group members in order to get
away from predominately “white, male candidates,”
according to one College E member.
Dr. Posser, when asked about his current status,
said: “1 am still interested in the position of liiterim
Director.” He added: “I also consider myself a
candidate for permanent Director.”

Election slate

Same students vying
for SASU, SUSA
by Joe Micadi
Spectrum Staff Writer

All six candidates running for
the three delegate positions to the
State University Student
Assembly (SUSA) from this
University are also seeking to fill
the four openings in SUNYAB’s
representation to the Student
Association
of the State
University (SASU). Only two
additional candidates are running
for SASU.
SASU is a three year old
student-services organization
composed of representatives from
dues-paying State University of
New York (SUNY) schools. SUSA
is being initiated this year to
provide a'formalized mechanism
for state-wide student input into

(SUNY)

decisions

with

participation not contigent on any
dues being paid.
Some students have
questioned the need for having
both a SASU and SUSA. At least
one Student Association official
has speculated
that the
duplication of dates, which is also
occurring at some other SUNY
schools, may precipitate the
eventual merger of the two
organizations. If that were to
occur, one scenario would have
the representatives to SUSA
becoming the members of SASU,
thereby ousting any elected SASU
delegate who is not concurrently a
SUSA member.

Services explained
SASU’s birth in 1970 was
prompted by an increase in SUNY
tuition and the appointment of
Monday,

Ernest Boyer as Chancellor of
SUNY without any form of
student input. Its aims are tb
provide services and information
to the 20 member schools .Weekly
information packets containing
legislative and important news
from other campuses are sent to
each school.
Besides providing “Purchase
Power,” a mechanism through
which its membership can buy
major products at near wholesale
prices, SASU is making plans to
start a Travel Agency which
reduce costs for students, create
new foreign exchange programs
and provide a variety of insurance
programs.
The fact that SASU has never
been recognized as the official
voice of SUNY students has
proved to be their major problem.
SASU Legislative Director Ray
Glass
said:“We were an
independent organization and
therefore not a creature of SUNY’
We weren’t accepted as die

This year the SUNY Board of
Trustees,
on a
acting
recommendation from Chancellor
Boyer, authorized the creation of
SUSA and recognized it as the
official voice of SUNY students.
Russ Gugino, SUNY Director for
Student Affairs, explained that
the “need for a student
governance body is documented
in the 1972 Master Plan and it is a
real concern of Chancellor Boyer.
Mr. Gugino pointed out that

�College F deals with male fears

Contributing Editor

It could have been an encounter session, a group
or a consciousness-raising experience.
Rather, it was a course on hemophelia
the fear of
sexuality, particularly gay sexuality
and the group of
men and women came because the fear had been realized
and felt and needed to be overcome.
One male spoke of how he had lived in three
dormitories and ap apartment and in all cases, out of fear,
copcealed his gay ness from his roommates. It is this fear of
being discovered and the incessant attempts at keeping
one’s gayness hidden that make homophobia a trap for
countless gay men and women.
Homophobia is one course being taught through
College F, which recently has evolved as the male studies
college. Focusing on male socialization in America, the
College’s list of courses includes Gay Male Literature, Gay,
Straight and Other Male Sexism, Sex Roles in American
Detective Fiction and a seminar in the psychic, legal and
economic trauma of divorce. ‘Multi-dknenstonaT

‘Macho’ males

Interestingly,, one course in the College deals with the

working- class “macho” male. The instructor Works with
men similar to himself, in whose lives violence plays a
critical role. Examining why such men are so prone to
violence, the course is an informal attempt to get people
“to talk honestly with each other, [toj let down some of
the barriers that we put up with all day long.”
Teaching the course on homophobia was a “very
political move” for its instructor, Howard Limmer.
Reflecting on this step, Mr. Limmer Said:
“Two years ago I was totally in the closet and was
sure that I would never be ‘publicly* gay. I realized,
though, that the only way out was to be totally honest
about the way I was rather than conforming to a society of
straight norms. It’s hard, because people do discriminate,

but I refuse any second-class citizenship.”
This course is a “milestone,” Mr. Limmer said, noting
that he hopes to “make people more of what they want to
be, rather than what society conditioned them into being.”

‘Multidimensional'

Combining
comfort and support with the
understanding that “people aren’t to bullshit each other,”
the College is striving to make people more open about
their lives, according to Burton Weiss, an instructor and a
major impetus in redirecting the College’s emphasis from
anarchism to male studies.
Although its major thrust is now on themes on
sexuality and political and social change, the College was
originally structured arOund new left politics and
experimental education courses. The change to male
studies began with a course on Sexuality and Politics, with
emphasis oh getting the class “to talk about intimate
details in their lives in as vulnerable a manner as possible,”
said Mr. Weiss. This approach carried over to a course on
Fascism and led to what has since become critical to the
structure Of the other courses-namely a multi-dimensional
approach
with stress on psychosexual and
historical/political analysis.

Real talk
Last year, Mr. Weiss’ course on Revolutionary Males
was the “jumping-off point” to what has since followed. In
this two-term course, the taping of classroom
conversations was introduced, but mostly where people
delivered lengthy autobiographical statements. Mr. Weiss
strongly believes that the “presence of a tape recorder
somehow cuts down on both kinds of bullshit
[avoidance]-getting off somehow cuts down on both
kinds of bullshit (avoidance)
getting off
He explained that there is a “premium on telling it
like it is” and taping makes an individual “more careful of
the demands of the interpersonal situation.” Of course, the
tapes are subject to the limitations of the individual; “All
we ask is that we can- make tapes and keep them for the
duration- of the course to show an individual’s progress."
One- tape which has been transcribed serves as the
basis for the College’s structure. The transcript is of two
men who recount what it was like coming to terms .with

According to Charles Haynie, coordinator of College
F, the program seeks to reach all groups of men; gay,
straight, divorced, married, alcoholic or drug-addicted. In
addition, he hopes the College can serve returning war
veterans as well as runaway high school males.
Speaking on divorced men, Mr. Haynie talked about
the possible formation of a community project dealing
with men “confronted with the dilemma and insecurity of
not having the security of a nuclear family.” “Marriage for
many men is a crutch,” he said, noting that because of a
male’s upbringing there is a hard and fast need to assume
great amounts of responsibility and control. Without a
wife and family, most men feel useless and wind up

Collective living
Both instructors as well as most participants have lived
in communal" settings. Commenting on his experiences
living in a gay collective, Donn Holley, one of the
instructors, called the arrangement “disastrous.” The
people, he said, “had very little in common and knew very
little about how the other, lived. When we had meals
together, we couldn’t avoid getting indigestion, noting the
overt hostility between the dwellers.
Commenting on this year’s low enrollment figures, Mr.
Haynie pointed out that “if we have to prove we’re a good
College by enrollment figures, we can’t.” As one instructor
put it: “I’d rather have seven or eight in a class and do
sohiething than have 100 students and make no progress.
The College is not a teaching, but a learning situation and
that’s beautiful,”

their gayness as well as involvement with new left politics.
Their analysis of the psychosexual roots of certain failures
in the new left movement and personal accounts of what it
means to grow up male in America today has been “a great
power in making people think about their own lives,” said
Mr. Weiss. The tape, which he termed an “unprecedented”
description of male socialization in America, laid the
groundwork for the College’s current program.

Arbitrary labels
Mr. Limmer also discussed society’s practice of
labeling according to sexual preference. “I want people to
look at me as Howie, rather than gay Howie.” Labels, he
feels, are “often arbitrarily given and sometimes used to
avoid commitment. Some people say they’re semi-straight
rather than semi-gay. Oppressed people like to identify
with their oppressors.”
The problems of collective living is also being tackled
by the College. This course “deals with such areas as sexual
relationships between those living together, groups vs.
couples vs. single people, all males vs. all females, gay vs.
straight and practical problems such as the shit-work and
unconscious power structures, if any.”

�Gas ceiling lift raises prices
by Michael O’Neil
Staff Writer

Spectrum

Retail gasoline prices will rise from one cent io
2.5 cents per gallon as a result of a relaxation of the
retail gas ceiling by the Cost of Living Council
Friday.

The lifting of the ceiling almost immediately
ended a protest by Buffalo area gasoline dealers
which had closed the pumps at nearly 350 stations.
As many as 500 local stations had been expected to
join the snowballing boycott this past weekend to
protest the Phase Four price ceiling. The lifting of
the ceiling will cause an immediate rise in the price

#&gt;■
.

of gas. The Council said it realized that motorists
will have to pay more to fuel the family car, but
added that the adjustment “is designed to minimis
the increase while permitting a fair return to small
petroleum dealers.”
Cars had begin lining up at some local service
stations last Thursday in anticipation of the
expected weekend shutdown. Many gas stations had
imposed a limit on the number of gallons that each
customer could purchase. The United Gas Dealers of
Western New York, which had been coordinating the
shutdown, said they had had commitments from 200
local dealers to shut down and that another 200 to
300 cooperative dealers indicated they might join
the boycott. There are nearly 800 gas stations in the
greater Buffalo area.

Future protests possible

The Council’s decision allows retailers to pass
to consumers wholesale price increases
incurred between May 1$ and September 28. There
was no provision for future wholesale rises, though,
causing some speculation that similar protests might
flare up in the future.
Last Monday President Nixon instructed the
Cost of Living Council to take action to allow a
retail price increase by the end of the week. The
Council took that action late Friday amidst
mounting indignation among gasoline retailers.
Gasoline wholesalers were allowed to increase
their prices in accordance with Phase Four
guidelines, while the retailers were forced to roll
their prices back to the level they were at last June.
along

by Don Levine

Gulf Oil, for example, has upped its price to the
retailers by 1.5 cents. Gulf service stations in the
area have not been allowed to pass this increase on
to the consuming public. The retailers hope that
their current action will force the Cost of Living
Council to allow them to raise their prices. President
Nixon’s statement earlier this week indicated that his
administration favored passing the increase on to the
public. As of now there has been no effort to force a
rollback on the wholesale level.
Many gas retailers in the Buffalo area claim that
they are losing money on every gallon of gas that
they sell. They blame the loss on a combination of
the higher wholesale prices and the increased cost of
maintaining their stations.
Another problem for the retailer is the reduced
allocations from the major oil companies. This
practice has forced many of the independent
operators out of business, since they depend on
excess from the major dealers as their main source of
gasoline. The oil companies are basing their
shipments on the amount of gasoline that was sold
by the particular retailer at this same time last year.
There is very little excess to be sold to the

prices have forced vending

Other items are either
increasing in size by one-third to

chocolate prices have doubled

in candy bars have increased from
10-20%, depending on the item.
Sam Davison, manager of
Vending Service on campus,
expressed his disappointment in
the discontinuation of certain
candy bars including Almond Joy
and

Raisinet freaks are also in for

Vending continued its struggle
to keep coffee at its ten-cent price
by purchasing a six-month supply
of paper cups. “We tied up our

Davison. “Where else can you get
a cup of coffee for a dime?”
He noted that apples may be
somewhat expensive this year as a
result of “bad weather causing
short supplies.”

The onslaught of higher prices
has also taken its toll on vending
machines, which now

anywhere from $1200 for a milk

�Trooi&gt; cuts

Senate votes down proposal

the Senate voted Wednesday against a 40
percent reduction in United States troops stationed
abroad. The vote came just six hours after the Senate
had first voted in favor of the cut.
The first vote approved Majority Leader Mike
Mansfield’s troopcut proposal by a margin of 49 to
46. However, the second vote rejected Sen.
Mansfield’s proposal by a 51 to 44 margin.
White House officials, taken by surprise by the
first vote, quickly organized a counter-attack to
reverse the vote. State Department and White House
members, led by W. Marshall Wright, the Assistant
Secretary of State for Legislative Affairs, rushed into
the Senate to try to convince senators to switch their
votes.

The Administration was successful in getting
four Senators to reverse their votes. They were
Warren G. Magnusen (D., Wash.), J. Bennet Johnston
Jr. (D., La.), George D. Aiken (R., Ver.), and Milton
R. Young (R., Md.). The Administration also picked
up votes from two Senators who were absent during
the first vote
John C. Stennis (D., Miss.) and
Lloyd M. Bentsen Jr. (D., Tex.).
-

Milder proposal
Proponents
of the Mansfield amendment
arranged for Senator Dick Clark (D.Jowa) to be
flown in from Iowa, but his vote was not enough to
overcome the reversed votes obtained by the

Administration. In addition, proponents of the
Mansfield amendment lost the vote of Senator
Weicker (R., Conn.), who missed the second vote.
Soon after the defeat of the Mansfield
amendment. Senator Cranston introduced a “fall
back” amendment calling for a less drastic reduction
in overseas forces of 20 percent by mid-1975.
Senator Hubert Humphrey (D., Minn.) co-sponsored
the Cranston proposal which, unlike the Mansfield
amendment, would include naval forces in the
reduction.

The United States now has 564,000 servicemen
overseas, 93,000 of them on naval ships. The
Mansfield amendment applied to the 471,000
members of the ground and air forces abroad. It
would have required the withdrawal of 188,000 by
mid-1976, with a least 47,000 by next July 1.
The Cranston amendment would require a
in air, ground and naval
forces by mid-1975, with 30,000 of this reduction to
be made by mid-1974.

125,000 man reduction

Tip the balance
The Administration, which was successful

in

blocking the Mansfield amendment, is expected to
have a little more difficulty in defeating the less

drastic Cranston amendment.
Meanwhile, senior Ajmerican military officers
said that large cutbacks in the U.S. forces overseas
could tip the balance of power in Europe. General
Andrew J. Goodpaster, Supreme Allied Commander
in Europe, said that unless cuts in U.S. forces are
accompanied by similar reductions in Soviet forces,
the present power balance will tilt in favor or the
Soviet Union and its Warsaw Pact allies.
A senior NATO intelligence officer said:“A cut
of 25 percent or more in the Seventh Army and the
United States Air Force in Europe could embolden
the Soviet high command to believe that the risk of
massive American intervention had been reduced to
the point acceptable to them. Then they will go for
what they want; the exits from the Norwegian Sea
and the Black Sea.”
Most military commanders agreed that cuts in
overseas troop strength would lead to a greater
reliance on the Navy and the Marine Corps. This
could be in line with the so-called Nixon Doctrine
which calls for greater American air and naval power
overseas and asks the Western allies to provide
ground forces for their own defense.

“We are not serving the needs

associated with the University’s

schools within the past four year.
According
to Dr. Fink, the
response was overwhelming, with
over one-third of the questionaires

Middle class neglected

Dr. Fink contends that the
focus of placement efforts in
recent years, has been on the third
world students, the problems and
goals of third world students.
Although he feels this is justified,
it has been implemented at the
expense
of the “white
middle-class kid, who has an
excellent Grade Point Average,
but
is discriminated against
because he is, well, white.”
The Placement Center and the
Division of Student Affairs is
charged with the responsibility of
serving students while at the
University, and assisting them in
finding a
meaningful
career
following graduation. “This could
mean anything from graduate
school in Psychology or History
to Dental School or Law School

Sweden, which is often cited as
“socially

is also
experiencing difficulty in fitting
liberal arts majors into jobs. Those
that do find jobs are having
difficulty paying back their loans,
which on the average total $6,000
per student, Dr. Fink said.
The student who enters
SUNYAB with little idea of what
he wants to do when he leaves the
University is faced with a problem
of a different nature, said Dr.
Fink. He experiments with various
courses, and may find himself in a
course that is interesting but far

student realized that at least one

The
answers
to
the
questionaire are being used to give
students interested in law school a
reference point. For example, if a
student with a 3.S grade point

law boards wants to find out what

schools other students with
similar qualifications were
accepted to, he would simply
refer to a chart of previous
student acceptances prepared by
Dr. Fink.

Factual information is not all
that was requested by Dr. Fink.
One student commented on the
whole question of applying to law
school; “Make the student be
realistic about his average and
board score. Make it known to the
student that the board scores are
weighed more heavily than his
four-year average.”

Another student seemed to
have the whole system down pat.
“If you are well-qualified, don’t

Nearly all the law schools
agreed the first year of school was
the most brutal. Their opnions
vary on quite a number of other
questions and the advice they give
could most definietly benefit the
prospective law student, said Dr.

Fink. His research endeavors may

prospective law students. Unless a

Give WNYPIRG priority!
WNYPIRG has been, and has strong potential to be, one of the
best organizations on campus. Recently performing such valuable
services as influencing tighter state controls on the marketing of
dangerous toys and a food price survey of University area
supermarkets, the consumer research organization has only just begun.
Like apple pie, almost every politician on campus supports the concept
of WNYPIRG. The organization deserves student support.
However, we only object to the way in which WNYPIRG is seeking
funding through a $3 increase in tfie $67 mandatory student fee. We
believe that fee is too high and is becoming increasingly difficult to
justify. Many students who would otherwise support WNYPIRG in this
week's referendum will probably agree that the fee is already too steep
and oppose any increase. However, there is another alternative being
offered.
A second question on the referendum will ask those students who
oppose any fee hike if they would like Student Association to re-order
its priorities and fund WNYPIRG from within its present budget. We
urge an overwhelming "yes" vote on this question. Many SA officials
favor funding WNVPIRG in this manner, but expect a difficult political
time in. finding the money. If the students mandate that WNYPIRG
should be given priority, this will make it possible for SA to justify the
cuts in other budgets which would be necessary to create a
$15,000-20,000 allocation for WNYPIRG.
The issue has been complicated by WNYPIRG co-chairman
Michelle Smith's insistence that without a $3-per-student fee raise,
WNYPIRG could not join the state-wide NYPIRG. However, NYPIRG
director Don Ross has said that while not as preferable, WNYPIRG
could join NYPIRG for a one-year trial run with a- one-shot allocation
in the neighborhood of $15,000—20,000. He has enough confidence in
the quality of his organization that he is willing to make this
concession, fully expecting that WNYPIRG will so clearly demonstrate
its value to University students in one year that they will support an
increased allocation the following year.
Ms. Smith has attempted to justify the fee hike with the rationale
that since any student can request a $3 refund, the fee is voluntary. We
believe that with any truly voluntary fee, the burden is on the
organization to collect it, not on students to demand a refund. Also,
since no student can register without paying the full student fee on his
tuition bill, the extra $3 would be mandatory in the strictest sense. If
any voluntary fee were to be implemented, we prefer Mr. Ross'
concept: a box on the tuition bill which students could check off and
thus waive the extra three dollars.

With a budget of three-quarters of a million dollars, much of it'
going to programs which benefit a relative few (like the inflated athletic
budget), it would be a case of warped priorities if SA could not find
$15,000 to keep WNVPIRG alive. WNVPIRG has already proven its
value. With a decent allocation to hire a professional lawyer and
researcher, its potential value to student consumers would be
unlimited.
If students want to approve a $3 fee increase to fund this valuable
organization, fine. But for all those students who feel they must reject
an increase because the fee is already too high, we strongly urge you to
vote "yes" on the second question to ask SA to re-order its priorities
and fund WNVPIRG from within its present budget. In this age of
consumer rip-offs, we cannot allow an organization like WNVPIRG to
die. It must be given priority.

About an hour ago, I sat down and wrote a

To \begin with, Agnew must now realize what
most New Yorkers have known for a long time: that

rebuild their city. If Nixon can enlarge upon, or even
simply maintain his hold upon his monarchial
throne, he would gladly see all of us twist slowly in
the wind.
I don’t know what Agnew did or did not do in
Maryland; that will come from the grand jury. But
there is something inherently disgusting about the
obvious White House joy in revealing that Agnew is
now in the process of plea bargaining, like a common
felon in Criminal Court. The official White House
liars deny that the stories are coming from the White
House, of course, but with Nixon’s polluted crew a
denial is tantamount to confirmation.
So Agnew, who sullied his own personal
reputation in the service of Nixon, now has to go to
see Nixon and ask that Attorney General Richardson
drop criminal charges in exchange for Agnew’s
resignation. It’s humiliating, but Agnew must now
know that Nixon and his employers don’t really care
about Americans like Agnew. Agnew is an ethnic, a
child of immigrants, and Nixon’s people have
nothing but patronizing contempt for the ethnics
and the immigrants.
The bargaining process is going on longer than
seems necessary, but that is probably because Agnew
fully understands the treacherous nature of the men
he’s dealing with. Nixon is perfectly capable of
telling Agnew that the charges will be dropped, or
greatly redued, in exchange for resignation; and then
double-crossing him. So that Agnew could resign and

go to jail for the rest of his life. Look at
happened to G. Gordon Liddy, Howard Amt,
Bernard Barker and the others. They’ll still be in the
dam when Nixon i* retired to the $10 million
called San Gemente.
And so, Agnew, like most children of
immigrants, has traveled the downward path to
wisdom. Nixon used him in 1969 and 1970, letting
Agnew carry die war against the press as part of a
complicated strategy of White House survival.

Through Agnew, Nixon pasted on a giant lie: that
the press was Democratic, when it is iniact
overwhelmingly Republican: that the press Was
disloyal, when it was, in fact, Nixon’s crowd that
engaged in widespread subversion of American
principles.

This is not to say that Agnew did not believe
what he was saying at the time. Nixon certainly
recognized the insecurity of the ethnic, the need for
the immigrant’s child to feel that elitist conspiracies
were blocking full enty into the larger society.
Agnew bought the success ethic that marked so
many people in the Nixon mob; the need to succeed
often appeared to have overwhelmed the common
decency of the man himself. Nixon is made of the
same cloth; so he turned Agnew into his valet for as
long as he needed him and then sent him back to the
stable.
•

�

�

Now Nixon is using poor Agnew even more
viciously: he must be gambling that the nation
cannot sustain a double shock, the loss of a Vice
President and the President in a single year. Let
Agnew be axed, and Nixon will somehow drift
through the next three years, rewriting history as he
goes. At the same time, he can choose the next Vice
President
someone like John Connally
who
would insure the continuity of the Permanent
Government in this country: all those owners of
airlines, big businesses, multinational corporations,
gas and defense companies, who don’t care
who is in power as long as they own himlm.m.
It’s a disgusting mess, but I hope Agnew fights. I
hope he stays in office, and 1 hope he remembers
where all the bodies are buried, and I hope he makes
Nixon squirm and choke and shake across the next
few months. Agnew used to pull a lot of tough stuff
with his mouth. But real toughness comes with
action, and now he has a chance to prove himself at
last. I hope he goes down throwing punches.

To the Editor:

Over the past few weeks, it has come to my
attention that many people on this campus do not
know what WNYPIRG is. Hopefully this letter will
remedy the situation.
In 1970, students all over the country realized
that the best way to affect social change was to
channel the energies released in the 1960’s towards
more constructive ends. Seeing this, Ralph Nader
and Don Ross originated the concept of a student
Public Interest Research Group(PlRG). One of the
first PIRGs was in Minnesota, and in that state, as
well as seventeen other states, the PIRG has been
recognized as a major force. Because of PIRGs,
electric rate increases have been stopped in Vermont,
environmentally destructive highways have been
halted in Massachusetts, the jail system has been
reformed in St. Louis, and countless other positive
actions have occurred because of a PIRG.
How does a PIRG work? Student researchers
analyzing issues of social concernf and receiving
academic credit for the same ) in areas such as
consumer hazards, environmental degradation,
corporate
irresponsibility, and government
unresponsiveness. Coordination of this research by a
state wide board of students, elected by and from
each member school, determining policy on state

to bring continuity and expertise to student work,
all hired, paid, and controlled by students. And
-

above all, a local board of interested students on
each campus carrying out projects that will benefit
their immediate community the university and the
surrounding area.
New York State has just joined the roster of
states that have the benefit of a student PIRG. Don
Ross has been hired to direct NYPIRG, which now
includes such schools as Queens College, RPI,
Syracuse, Cornell, Colgate, and others, with a total
student membership of over 60,000. Research areas
on the state level include legislative reform and
consumer affairs, as well as many projects on the
local level of each campus, including sex
discrimination in the University, handbooks on
student rip-offs, student tenant rights, and many
others.
SUNY at Buffalo can and should be a vital part
of this organization. Don’t kid yourself there are a
lot of things wrong in Buffalo that can be changed
with just a little student input. WNYPIRG will
provide students with the outlet to affect necessary
changes. Even if you know that you may never wish
to work directly on a project, the money each
student spends for PIRG will be more than offset
when PIRG challenges the next proposed rate
increase in electric and phone rates.
Your will be asked on October 3,4, and 5 to
vote whether or not WNYPIRG will receive initial
funds to start a real operation in Buffalo. I urge you
to consider the issues and vote as you sec fit.

�The rise and fall
of the Greek frats
by Mark Kirachenbaum
Spectrum Staff

Writer'

Fraternity life is virtually defunct on this campus.
This is not the case everywhere since there are still schools
where Greek life flourishes. There was a time, however,
when Greek houses controlled the social activities at this
school.
The first fraternity at the University of Buffalo was
organized in 1888 by members of the Pharmacy Classes of
1889 and 1890. Although there were medical, dental and
law fraternities before this. Beta Phi Sigma was the first
one to be strictly University-founded.
Beta Chi Epsilon was the first social fraternity, created
in 1916. The first sororities appeared in 1920. As the
university grew in size, students and facilities, the Greek
organizations also expanded.

Unbelievable numbers
The total number of fraternitiesand sororities formed
through this school’s history seems unbelievable when one
looks at the situation totoy. The fraternities and sororities
were each governed by a separate council.Being a part of

these

councils thus affiliated the houses with

university.

the

The Inter-Fratemity Council (IFC) controlled
fraternity functions. The purpose of this organization was
to maintain the standards of fraternity life and
inter-frateraity relationships, to interact with the college
authorities to maintain high social and scholastic standards
for fraternity members, and to provide a forum to permit
discussion about fraternity matters.

In addition to its legislative function, the IFC
performed numerous services for all male members of the
University regardless of fraternity affiliation.
Each incoming freshman was given the annual IFC
Handbook: a digest of all fraternities and a list of their
members.

'

Freshmen were also invitedJo a Freshman Mixer, held

to acquaint them with fraternity members and allow them

to ask any questions they had concerning a particular frat.
1FC also took an active part in intramural athletics in
which it boasted a long and successful record. The Council
ended each year with a formal dance that was restricted to
fraternity members.

Women busy, too
The sororities were governed by the Panhellenic
Council. (Panhellenic literally means “all Greek.”) The
Council was composed of a senior and a junior
representative from each of the campus sororities. In
addition to the supervision of general sorority policies,
Panhellenic also sponsored the annual Pan-Hell ball, the
proceeds of which financed the Freshman Tea, the
Panhellenic scholarship and the Scholastic Dinner at which
the sorority having the highest scholastic average was
predented with an engraved punch bowj. The Council also
made and enforced all rules for the rushing period.
Different cultures follow distinct patterns and
ceremonies. So it was in the time of the Greeks. Rushes,
Homecoming, the Kampus (Carnival and Moving-Up-Day
were scheduled every year.

What a nidi
Rushing included all entrance requirements and
pledges necessary for admittance to a house. It was usually
accompanied by a silent period in which entrants were not
allowed to communicate with frat members, except during
the various pledge ceremonies.
Homecoming was celebrated with a parade (and a
float for the Homecoming Queen), various parties and a
very popular football game. During the halftime,
IFC-sponsored “Greased Pig Catch” was held, in which
freshmen attempted to capture an oiled swine.
The Kampus Karnival was another annual event. The
week before the carnival was highlighted by the “Ugly Man
Contest.” For this event each fraternity selected and
photographed its “Ugly Man.” These pictures were then
displayed in Norton Hall lobby. Students voted for their
favorite hero by contributing money to the frat of the
“Ugly Man” of their choice. The house with the largest
collection won the contest. All proceeds went to charity.
One year. Alpha Phi Omega won a $225 victory.

Rites of spring
Moving-Up-Day was a spring holiday. It was the last
festival before second semester finals and was
characterized by frat floats and MUD parties.
The year was filled with get-togethers and
celebrations. Some of the major ones included the
Homecoming parties, the “Get Acquainted” dances, the
Silver Balls, “April Showers,” and the IFC balls. Each
Greek house also threw individual gimmick-type bashes
such as Chinese parties, sing-a-longs, and raffle parties.
Many functions were held for charity fund-raising.

Homecoming event and ROTC.
Trips were planned so the Greeks could visit other
“brothers” or “sisters” across the nation.
All events were covered in The Spectrum in a column

titled With the Greeks.
Most of the fraternities and sororities did not have
boarders “because the University of Buffalo was mainly a
commuters’ school. They merely kept a headquarters for
social activities. Therefore, although the Greeks flourished,
this University was never considered to be a true
“fraternity school.”
A major blow hit the Greeks in 1967 when a ruling
from Albany banned all fraternities and sororities from
affiliating with the University. The Greeks fought
unsuccessfully to have the decision repealed. From that
year onward, the Greeks lost their power and influence on
this campus.
A listing of some previous Greek organizations at this
University includes;

what SUSA does is “provide the

When asked why SASU
hadn’t been recognized as the

responded that one of the reasons
was SUNY officials felt a school
“Wouldn’t -dtave to pay to be

that because SASU was financed

result there was no way to assure
that SASU would gain and
maintain representative status.”

that since the independence of
SASU makes them accountable

that would make it the “student

SASU would maintain its
independence from SUNY while

added:“Without SASU, SUSA will

of the Buffalo Electric Company, Inc. Mr. Parker has

in

in the past been involved in the construction of
various campus buildings and is a former member of
the UB Council. The University has named Parker
Hall after him.
The money for the scholarships is to be
administered by the Engineering Society of Buffalo,
which has set up a committee for that purpose. The
chairman of the committee is John Elfvin, presently
UJ}. Attorney of the District of Western New York.
The first scholarships will be awarded for the
1974-75 school year. There will be between 15 and
20 scholarships awarded each year for a period of
ten years. Information on applications is not yet
available.
Mr. Parker said: “The scholarships will be

awarded solely on the basis of merit.” However, he
added that preference will be given to residents of
Erie County in relation to other residents of the
Eighth Judicial District which includes the larger
portion of Western New York. Additionally,
candidates nominated by the committee will receive
primary consideration. Students who do not reside
in the Eighth Judicial District are not eligible for the
scholarships.
According to Mr. Parker, the awards will not be
given according to financial need. “The scholarships
are not meant to cover the cost of living since the
student will be living at home. The scholarships are
meant for qualified young men who will enrich their

community,” said Mr. Parker.

Robert Burrick, chairman of the Speakers Bureau, has announced
that either Walt Frazier or his teammate Willis Reed, will make good on
Frazier’s speaking commitment here Wednesday night. Originally
Frazier, the sharp-dressing, hot-shooting guard from the World
Champion Knicks, was to appear in Clark Gym tomorrow. The date
was set back to Wednesday due to a Knick exhibition game tomorrow.
When Frazier could not be reached to confirm the appointment, Mr.
Burrick set up Reed as an alternate. The Knicks 6’10” center came off
a serious injury last season, was shaky for awhile, but ended with a fine
playoff effort. Reed was the league’s Most Valuable Player in 1969-70.
Buffalo’s first annual “swim-a-thon” to raise money for the
American Cancer Society will take place at Clark Pool on Saturday and
Sunday, October 27 and 28. Most of the area colleges and many hi#i
schools will participate. Each student finds a sponsor, and then swims
either 50 lengths or for a half hour. Ninety-five per cent of the money
received goes to the American Cancer Society, with five per cent being
retained by the University.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

The SpecTltylM

Vol. 24, No. 17

Stats University of New York at Buffalo

Friday, 28 September 1973

Agnetv’s case stays in the courts
B. Anderson (R., 111.) offered a more political view: ‘They
won’t bail the Vice President out of his predicament."

Speaker of the House Cad Albert refused Wednesday
to act “at this time” on a request from Vice President
Spiro Agnew that the House of Representatives, rather
than the courts, investigate the allegations of wrongdoing
against him.
The Vice President is under investigation by a
Maryland grand juty for allegations of bribery, extortion
and kickbacks stemming from his tenure in office as
Maryland’s governor and Baltimore County Executive.
“The Vice President’s letter asking for the House hearing
relates to matters before the courts,” Mr. Albert said. “In
view of that fact, I, as speaker, will not take any action on
the letter at this time."
Mr. Agnew’s highly unusual request to move his case
from the courts to the House raised the constitutional
question of whether it Was legally permissible to
investigate or indict a sitting Vice President until he has
been impeached or has resigned from office. In his letter to
the House Speaker, Mr. Agnew, citing what he believed to
be his
immunity from prosecution, said he
would “not acquiesce in any criminal proceeding lodged'
against me in Maiyland or elsewhere.”

Predicts vindication
Mr. Agnew predicted that an investigation by the
House of Representatives would vindicate him of any
wrongdoing. President Nixon asked the American people
Wednesday to accord Mr. Agnew the “presumption of
innocence which is the right of any citizen.”
Mr. Agnew, in his letter requesting the House
inquiry, said: “I am confident that like Vice President
Calhoun, I shall be vindicated by the House.” Vice
President Calhoun was involved in a similar situation in
1826. He was charged with improper participation in the
profits of an Army contract made while he was Secretary
of State. He was exonerated by. the House of
Representatives after a lengthy investigation.
Mr. Agnew complained of “a constant and
ever-broadening stream of rumors" against him. ’The
result has been so as to foul the atmosphere that no grand
or petit jury could fairly consider this matter on the
merits,” the Vice President charged.

Quick decision

Presidential pressure denied

Mr. Albert’s decision came both as a surprise and
rather quickly. It had been indicated the House leadership
would mull over the situation until sometime next week
before making a Anal decision. There was speculation that
the House’s refusal significantly worsened Mr. Aghew’s
chances of heading off a Federal grand jury investigation.
The possibility also remained that Mr. Agnew’s lawyers
would nevertheless ask a Federal district court in
Baltimore to block the grand jury inquiry.
It is possible to circumvent the Speaker’s decision by
having Mr. Agnew’s supporters introduce a bill calling for
the impeachment of the Vice President. By statute, such a
bill would necessitate the beginning of an investigation.
There was no objection to the Speaker’s decision,
commented Re. John J. McFall (O.. Cal.): “I don’t think
the House should interfere with a court action." Rep. John

The White House said Monday that Mr. Agnew has
discussed the possibility of resignation with
President Nixon. Deputy Press Secretary Gerald Warren
said Mr. Nixon had neither encouraged nor discouraged the
Vice President in that regard. Mr. Warren stressed that the
President did not exert any pressure on the Vice President
to take a particular course of action. The President and the
Vice President have met four times since the investigation
into Mr. Agnew’s Maryland political career began.
Attorney General Elliot Richardson said (be
Maryland grand jury would begin its inquiry next. week.
Mr. Richardson said: “As a matter of law, this procedure
should be followed."
Presidential Advisor Bryce Harlow denied that the
White House wants Mr. Agnew to resign. Mr. Harlow said
already

the Vice President’s predicament is “purely a personal
matter.” However, Victor Gold, former press secretary to
the Vice President, said the White House was “not
particularly interested” in seeing Mr. Agnew’s problems
solved.

Career on trial
Senator Jacob Javits (R., N.Y.) was one of the few
senators who commented on Mr. Agnew’s unusual request.
—

Mr. Javits was not present at a meeting where Republican
congressional leaders were asked to refrain from
commenting on the Agnew dilemma. The Senator said the
letter was aimed at placing his “life, his career and his
standing” as the issue on trial.
Mr. Javits speculated that if the Vice President put
his whole life and career at stake, the House would be
more lenient in their recommendation following the
investigation. Were the Vice President to leave the issue to
the courts, the Senator feels it would be more likely that
he would be found guilty. Mr. Javits also said that Mr.
Agnew opted for the “political route.”
Mr. Javits, who is “no ardent supporter” of the Vice
President, said he would not speculate on a possible
successor to the Vice Presidency should Mr. Agnew leave
office. He did say that his “favorite candidate” for
President in 1976 is Governor Nelson Rockefeller. Senator
Javits also said the commencement of impeachment
proceedings against the Vice President would mark a “sad
day for our country.”
In a related development, a Maryland contractor has
told federal prosecutors that he personally gave an
estimated SI5,000 in cash to Mr. Agnew after Mr. Agnew
became Vice President. The Vice President’s press
secretary, J. Marsh Thomson, termed the "newspaper
account as another “inaccurate and unsubstantiated
rumor.” The story said that the money was not solicited.
The contractor reportedly said that he gave the money to
Mr. Agnew became he thought it was “expected” of him.

News analysis

VP s career destroyed
despite final outcome
by Marc Jacobson
City Editor

With speculation flying about what his next move will be the name
of Spiro T. Agnew has become more of a household word than ever
before.
A Maryland Grgrand jury has been investigating Mr. Agnew’s
period as Baltimore County Executive and Governor of Maryland,
looking into allegations of bribery, extortion and kickbacks against the
Vice President.
Amidst leaks, rumors and unconfirmed reports, the grand jury had
progressed in recent weeks to the point where they are ready to weigh
the accumulated evidence and decide whether to issue any indictments
(formal charges of criminal activity.) Following any indictment against
Mr. Agnew, a trial would normally be held to determine the Vice
President’s guilt or innocence.

W01 not resign
Here lies the first question. Mr. Agnew, as Vice President, may be
granted constitutional immunity from prosecution while in office. The
only way the Vice President or the President can be tried, amny legal
scholars way the Vice President or the President can be tried, many
legal scholars indicated that he will not resign, leaving impeachment the
only road to a trial of the allegations against him, if he continues to
daim immunity from prosecution. However, this is a thorny
constitutional question which has never been dearly resolved.
Mr. Agnew appealed to the House of Representative late Tuesday
to begin an inquiry into the charges against him in lieu of a court begin
an inquiry into the charges against him in lieu of a court President
moved to put his whole life, career and reputation on the line. Had the
House decided to begin the inquiry, the grand jury investigation would
have ceased, and Mr. Agnew’s fate would have been in the hands of the
House of Representatives.
In the House, there are no rules of evidence, so any and all subjects
relevant or irrelevant are admissable as evidence and would most likely
be presented. Charged with weighing a man’s total career, rather than
trying him on strict legal grounds, representatives would likely be
politically reluctant to cast Mr. Agnew out of office, and would
probably be lenient in their recommendations.
The focus of corruption in Washington has shifted from Watergate
to Mr. Agnew. Although the Senate Watergate hearings are continuing,
speculation and scrutiny have recently centered on the Vice President,
and pressure has been mounting for Mr. Agnew to resign.

Finally

Buffalo State offers
journalism courses
The long-awaited opportunity
for the study of journalism has
finally come to Buffalo. Buffalo
State College, located on
Elmwood Avenue, will offer
courses in journalism and other
media studies as part of the
College’s Communications Media
Program begun this fall.
Charles S. Olton, associate vice
president for Academic Affairs, is
administering the
Communications Media Program
until a permanent director is
hired. Dr. Olton cited a lack of
adequate fiinds for the delay in
implementing such a program. He
said that state educators were
reluctant to start a third school of
journalism in New York State
the other schools being Syracuse
University and Columbia. Or.
Olton added that their reluctance
stemmed from the advice of
professional newsmen and editors
consulted by the state educators.
Newsmen and editors expressed a
desire for more people with
journalism training. However,
they warned the educators against
“over-training” students beyond-'
the BA level such training being
both “unnecessary and
impractical.”

Among the 40 additional
courses listed, there are studies in
the American cinema, newspaper
editing and makeup, reporting of
public affairs, motion picture film
production, advertising and sales
promotion, advertising design,
graphic design, television
production, radio and television
broadcasting, public relations and
ethics and law in the media. In
addition, there will be several
independent study courses and a
paid internship program giving
students an opportunity to work
full-time under supervision in the
communications industry.
Dr. Olton was quick to add:
“The list of courses in the bulletin
is only a suggestive list.” He said
that students could take courses
at other institutions
from law
courses at the State University of
Buffalo to fashions courses at
Fashion Institute of Technology
in New York City
and have
them counted as part of their
major.
Dr. Olton is being assisted by
two program advisors, William
Donnelly from the Department of
English, and Julia Piquette from
the Department of Speech and
Theater Arts.
At present,
the State
University of Buffalo offers only a
few courses in, or relating to, the
study of journalism. One of the
courses is taught by Lee Smith, an
editorial writer for the Buffalo
Evening News, and will be offered
in the spring semester. In

Before an overwhelmingly hostile crowd
of about 70-90 people. Graduate School
Dean McAllister Hull conducted an open
hearing Tuesday night on the selective
arming of Campus Security.
In his opening remarks, Dr. Hull traced
the evolution of the selective arming issue
through two years of committee hearings
and stated that President Robert
had decided to selectively arm two
plainclothes Security officers on each shift
of duty. He continued that the decision
was reached after careful deliberation and
the surveying of 30 campuses whose size
and circumstance were comparable to the
State University of Buffalo.
After affirming that the decision to
selectively arm the officers had already'
been made and that it was a moot question
to argue against some type of arming, Dr.
Hull faced a barrage of criticism and hostile
questions from the crowd. Loud applause
greeted one speaker’s assertion that “we
reject any proposal for arming.” Dr. Hull “What right do you have to ask us to go up

on to arrive on the scene of a crime in
time, according to Commissioner Thomas
Blair of the Buffalo Police" said Dr. Hull
in response to a query on their availability
as the questions continued.

Two themes
Two main themes emerged during the
hearing; Dr. Hull stated at least three times

that he is not willing to allow the
possibility that an unarmed Security
officer could have to face a person using a
lethal weapon. Mr. Griffin also repeatedly
asked the crowd to either allow the arming
to take place of “redefine our (Campus
Security’s] responsibilities.”
A major criticism of students was that
there wasn’t enough student input into the
arming decision. An unidentified graduate
student on the “Arming Committee”
observed “when we needed students and
their opinions two years ago, nobody gave
a damn.’’ In fact, there was student
representation on the committee that
decided on selective arming.
The most vociferous and alarmed
feelings that students expressed during the
two-hour hearing were their mistrust and
apprehension about the arming of Campus
Security. Many students also expressed
fears that violence will only increase if the
proposed arming is implemented.
Mr. Griffin answered these objections
and fears, declaring “not one Security
officer in this country has shot a student in
the past two years.” He added: “No one is
concerned with the victims of these

crimes.”
The hearing ended on an inconclusive
note, with a student voicing fears that
unless a selectively-armed Security force is
implemented, the State Legislature may
legally mandate the arming of afll Campus
Security officers.

Spectrum Staff Writer

A recent immigrant from Poland with an
extensive background in the Yiddish language will be
teaching conversational Yiddish at Hillel House
beginning October 1. The non-credit course will be
taught every Monday at 7:30 p.m. by Paula
Teitelbaum, a freshman at the University.
Ms. Teitelbaum was born and raised in Poland.
There she attended a government-supported Yiddish
Day School until 1967, when she and her family
came to live in the United States. She had little use
for Yiddish in her everyday life in Poland, employing
it mainly during cultural activities.
However, when she arrived in the United States,
Ms. Teitelbaum found herself in need of Yiddish.
Her family settled in the New York area, and, until
she learned to speak English, Ms. Teitelbaum relied
on Yiddish as her primary mode of communication.
She continued to sustain her interest in Yiddish
while working in a Yiddish theater on the lower East
Side. An active participant in the “Yiddishist”
movement, Ms. Teitelbaum has previously taught at
Camp Hemshekh, a Yiddish-speaking summer camp
in upstate New York.
More than language
Ms. Teitelbaum intends to make this more than
just a class in Yiddish language. Although
development of a basic ability to read, write and
speak are a part of her plan, she also hopes to
include folklore, Yiddish songs, and an introduction
to Yiddish literature, theater and other cultural
aspects. “These are the things that stay with people
longer,” she emphasized.
A description of what Yiddish actually is may
be necessary for those many individuals who are
unfamiliar with it. Yiddish has often been called a.
“bastardization rather than a language,” because all
of Yiddish is borrowed (or stolen) from other
languages.
The language was born in the Rhine Valley of
Germany in the 12th Century. The Jews living there
spoke German among themselves, but when they
wrote German, they used Hebrew letters. Through
the centuries, German words were modified, Hebrew
words were added, and this spoken and written
idiom developed its own syntax. As the Jews moved
eastward, they carried with them this new language,
adding Polish, Russian and Lithuanian words as they
settled in these countries. In fact, wherever Jews
have traveled, their Yiddish has been influenced by
the language of the region in which they settled.
Hebrew differentiated
By the 18th Century, the great majority of
European Jews spoke Yiddish only; Hebrew was
reserved for scholars and praying. Hebrew and
Yiddish are sometimes confused by those who do

language.
In the early years of the 20th Century, Yiddish
was spoken by an estimated ten million people,
living mainly in Eastern Europe and the United
States. The use of Yiddish declined after World War

-^Alvln

Paula Teitelbaum
II. However, there has recently been a revival of the
popularity of Yiddish in the United States and
Canada. Courses like Ms. Teitelbaum’s may help to
preserve it from virtual extinction.
Yiddish has manifested itself in various aspects
of Jewish cultural life. Yiddish theater achieved
artistic distinction toward the end of the 19th
Century. Yiddish newspapers are still published in
cities throughout the world, Including New York,
Paris, Warsaw and Israel. Writers of Yiddish literature
are well-renowned and widely read even today,
including Sholom Aleichem, I.L.Peretz and Mendele
Mocher Sforim. Music, poetry and scholarly books
have also been written in Yiddish. In the United
States there are two Yiddish school systems:
“Folkschulen” (folk schools) and “Arbcitering.”
Ms. Teitelbaum describes Yiddish as “a
beautifully desriptive and warm language. I love
Yiddish. It’s more than just a language to me

All interested students may enroll in the course

French Dept, offers
foreign study course
A study abroad program at the
University of Grenoble, Prance is
being offered by the French
Department for students who are
looking, to improve their French
or just to immerse themselves in a

foreign culture. Thomas Kline,
assistant professor of French who
directed last year’s program, said
it is a “most versatile program”
that allows accepted students the
unique opportunity to take
courses at a foreign university.
Dr. Kline explained that
students are provided with air
transportation from New York to
Grenoble and living quarters with
French families. The program
consists of a semester or two of
studies (16-18 credit hours per
semester), fully integrated into
the undergraduate curriculum,
The student is given the option of
taking literature courses, an
independent study project, a
work-study situation which
provides jobs in banks or hospitals
for credit, and elective programs
in other subjects. Dr. Kline added
that students may also have the
option of teaching at a French
high school.
“There is noway a student can
feel adequate about his French or
his understanding of French
culture” until he actually places
himself into a living situation with
the people of a foreign country,
said Dr. Kline. Only then can they
“sense they are not doing
something artificial,” he added.

Open admission
The Study Abroad Program is
open to every student with a good
scholastic record, including those
who do not attend the State

University of Buffalo. The cost is
equal to that of tuition and
residence hall fees at this
University. The prerequisites are
two or three semesters of
advanced language and civilization
courses, plus two years of

beginning courses or equivalent,
Last spring, about half of the
approximately 50 applicants were
accepted.
Dr. Kline accompanied the
students last year to Grenoble.
“My job was to keep track of
every aspect of the life of a
student,” he said, as well as acting
as professor, guidance counselor,
and dean of students. He met with
the students once a week to
discuss any problems they had.
Tutors were also hired to oversee
the students’ work and make sure
they were getting the most out of
their courses,
The students had normal
vacations during which they were
free to go where they pleased,
Grenoble is nestled in the Alps
with Italy and Switzerland easily
accessible. It is one of the best
skiing resorts in the world. Dr,
Kline said: “It surpassed all
expectations of physical beauty."
During the year, small excursions
were taken to Burgundy or to the
Mediterranean. Although
Grenoble itself is very small, the
city is culturally alive and offers
much in the way of theater.
The deadline for applications is
March IS for the fall and
November 1 for the spring. There
will be a meeting on Monday,
October 1 in Norton Union,
Room 234 for anyone interested
in joining or finding out about
studying abroad.

LSAT deadline
Pre-law advisor Jerome S. Fink urges all students
interested in applying to Law School in the fall to
take the October administration of the Law School
Aptitude Test (LSAT). The deadline for filing for
the test is today. Dr. Fink suggests that students mail
the application, which is available outside the
placement office at Hayes C, Special Delivery. If you
have any questions, you may teach Dr. Fink at

831-4414.

Criticism that the Student Association (SA) has
failed to take strong stands on important issues
marked the first meeting of the Student Assembly
Monday night. With an assessment of what was
termed the “state of the association,” SA President
Jon Dandes outlined the areas of concern with which
his administration has been dealing, to give “a
general idea of where the Assembly is going.”
Specific action arose in response to a criticism

Difficult defense
Mr. Dandes said he had been to Albany and
sensed that the University was having an increasingly
difficult time defending the four-course system. “We
can’t justify the four-course load because of the lack

by members that a major fault of the SA has been its
failure to take definite stands on important campus
issues. An ad hoc committee was formed to voice
student opposition to the arming of Campus
Security, to refuse any decision made on the issue,
and to force the issue back into a committee with
more student input.
A subsidiary committee was formed to discuss
new ways of bringing other important issues to the
awareness of students. Concern was also expressed
over finding more effective ways of bringing student
pressure to bear on the University administration.
Many members felt that the SA has had relatively
little power in policy-making decisions in the
University.
Initiatives needed

Mr. Dandes described the workings of the
present SA administration as a move away from
“crisis management” to a more “initiative” action.
He mentioned the release of a “master plan”
containing a set of priorities and goals sometime in
midrOctober. Citing the “criminal negligence” of
past SA’s in what they perceived as their
responsibilities, he said his administration would be,
above all, “accountable” to the students as their
elected officers.
In response to queries concerning the athletic
budget, Mr. Dandes stated that the question of
funding sports was upcoming and a committee had
been appointed to assess the situation and establish
priorities. The SA has informed the Athletic
Department and is awaiting their itemized budget.
Another issue of concern at Monday’s meeting
was the four-course load. Mr. Dandes maintained
that there was a problem with the four-course load

Immunity at the top?
Spiro Agnew has decided that a sitting Vice President is not subject
to criminal prosecution unless he is impeached or resigns from office.
Such a position on that controversial Constitutional question is going
to yield serious repurcussions for Mr. Agnew, for President Nixon, and
for the nation.
Mr. Agnew has unmistakably chosen "the political route" by
requesting that the grand jury investigation against him for alleged
bribery and kickback charges during his political career in Maryland be
halted, and an inquiry by the House of Representatives be substituted
in its place. Unlike a judicial investigation, a House inquiry would be
conducted without rules of evidence or other legal procedures; it would
consider such factors as Mr. Agnew's integrity and career, which would
be irrelevant in a court of law, and the Vice President's chances for
acquittal would be far greater.
Mr. Agnew's decision to resist the grand jury must in part be based
on the knowledge that there is a strong case against him. Amidst
rumors that Mr. Agnew would resign in exchange for pleading guilty to
a lesser charge, CBS quoted assistant Attorney General Henry Petersen
as saying, "We've got the evidence; we've got it cold." Apparently

Agnew is unconfident that judicial proceedings will confirm his stated

Pernicious proposal

The Spectrum editorial of the nineteenth stated:
“Voluntary means the burden is on the organization
to collect it, not on the students to demand a
refund.” In any case, the question arises as to why
PIRG, if it really is concerned about students’ free
choice, does not rely on purely voluntary
contributions rather than attempt to use the coercive
power of student government. The answer that
presents itself is that those in PIRG know that the
awkvyard process of requesting a refund will result in
them keeping more money compulsorily received
than they could ever hope to get via voluntary
means.
Thomas Jefferson gave the answer to PIRG
many years ago when he saiid; “To compel a man to
furnish contributions of money for the propogation
of opinions which he disbelieves is sinful and
tyrannical.” Every UB student has the chance to

Remark
At the time the first resoituion was distributed,

no
action whatsoever was taken on this.
A second resolution was introduced from the
floor which had the effect of ratifying the action
already taken by President Ketter. 1 don’t remember
its precise wording although it said something like
the following; Pursuant to its charge under its
bylaws, the Faculty-Senate herewith approves the
establishment of a school of Health Education. (The
exact wording will be in the minutes.) This
resolution passed.
My own comments on these resolutions are:
a. The first resolution looks somewhat plaintive,
innocuous and content-free.
b. The second resolution turned a defacto
situation into a de jure one.
I don’t mind The Spectrum reports in which
reporters make clear things they wish had happened.

Lying with statistics
To the Editor.

In a recent The Spectrum article (Sept. 18,
1973), Paul Kade, SA National Affairs Coordinator,
reports on a survey of trends in grading practices.
The reader is informed that inquiries were mailed to
over SO colleges and universities, and that of this
total, ten responses were returned.
Despite the fact that no information is available
regarding the grading practices of 40, or four-fifths
of all schools sampled, Mr. Kade asserts: “It is
obvious from the responses that most of the schools
are on the ABCDF system and also have the pass-fail
option.”
How Mr. Kade was able to move from the study
findings to the conclusions he reports remains a
mystery td this reader. This is particularly puzzling
since reliable computation of mailed survey findings
should be based on the total number of subjects
surveyed, and not on the total number of responses
received. On this basis, one can conclude only that
of 50 colleges surveyed, a total of not more than
nine reported the use of the ABCDF system and of
,
the pass-fail option.

would live there the rest of his life.
He couldn’t remember precisely when it started
to go bad. He would clean the hedges in the front,
and by morning there would be beercans and
newspapers piled in the yard, left by people he never
saw or heard. He and Janie came home one night,
and found the window screen neatly sliced with a
knife; a part of him knew that someone had tried to
break in, and had been foiled by the storm windows,
but he refused to let the night visions take him.
“It was probably some kids fooling around,” he
told Janie. “You know, daring each other, being
bad.”
But that night he couldn’t sleep. In the morning
he had all the locks checked, and they never again
slept with the downstairs windows open. A few
months later, he saw a hole drilled through the storm
window in the baby’s room. He looked closer and
found a hunk of metal buried in the window frame.
It was the lead of a bullet. The cops came, bored and
indifferent, and wrote notes in a little book.
“There’s nothin’ to do about it,” the head cop said.
“It was probably someone foolin’ around in the
park.”
After that, he pulled all the blinds through the
day, afraid of making a target, and Janie had thick
drapes made for all the windows. He found the
garbage bags sliced open one morning, the trash
strewn across the sidewalk. A mailbox vanished rigjit
off the front door. The gas lamp was smashed one
summer weekend, toppled like a tree. And on
another morning, in their second year at the house,
he came out to find that his copper drainpipe, 30
feet high, had been ripped from the wall itself.

1973, New York Post

In the sixth year of their marriage, Herb and

Jaine Troubenstein bought the house in Brooklyn.
Janie had grown up in Pennsylvania and had lived in
houses most of her life. But Troubenstein was a New
Yorker: old-law tenements on East Side, a lot of
in a proud old pre-war apartment
dreamy
house on the Concourse, and the tiny place in the
Village*^overflowing with books and prints and
flowers, where they lived after they were married.
He had become the first man in three generations of
his family to own property. And it brought
Troubenstein great joy.
“It’s a great house,” he would say, sitting
around the art department at the agency where he
worked. “A terrific house, a beautiful, solid, loving
woman of a house.”
He wasn’t really bothered that first week, whenthe new trash cans vanished overnight. Instead, he
blamed himself. “1 didn’t paint the address on
them,” he told Janie, ‘it was my own fault.

Token acceptance
To the Editor.
It seems Norman Salant felt obliged to extend
his discussion of Art Garfunkel’s new album Angle
Clare beyond a necessary review of the subject.
Instead, it appeared that the theme in question was
the homosexuality of Art Garfunkel and on a
broader level homosexuality as a lifestyle.
Firstly, an artist’s work should be judged solely
on its own merit without criticism of the artist’s
lifestyle.
Secondly, the question of homosexuality should
not be dealt with in the light-hearted and trivial
manner of your article. The oppression of
homosexuals by American society (even in these
"liberated” times) is destructive and malevolent.
Additional biased statements by The Spectrum are
not necessary. Actually, the mere fact that the
article was printed indicates a token acceptance of
homosexual oppression.

mistake.”
He started leaving the trash in large plastic bags,
and concentrated on exploring the house. He found
an old set of architect’s plans, dated 1912, and
traced all the basic beams, caressing their exposed
wooden surfaces in attic and cellar, exulting in their
endurance and solidity. He located the old
disconnected gas lines, and had the Brooklyn Union
Gas Co. put a gas lamp in the front yard. On mild
nights, he would climb through the attic to the roof,
to gaze out over Prospect Park, or stare down the
long slope to the harbor, and the glittering skylines
beyond.
More than anything else, he loved the sense of
iron privacy the house provided, and its endless
interior space. There were rooms for everything and
everyone: a room for the baby, a room for guests, a
room where Janie did her editing. He converted one
small bedroom into a walk-in closet, and started
planning a sauna bath for another old closet. An old
bedroom became a library, with a bar, a TV set, and
a wall of bookshelves, where he spent an entire week
sorting the books, putting them in categories and
alphabetical order. It was a house that encouraged
intimacy and an extended sense of time; he hoped he

They spent Labor Day at a friend’s house, but

Janie to wait for a while with the baby. She watched
the lights go on, room by room,&lt;and then there was a
long pause, before Troubenstein came back out on
the stoop, locking the door behind him. Tears
streamed down his face, and his body was shaking
from violation, invasion, and the finality of evil. He
did nut describe the burglary.
“It’s time to move,” he said, and they sat in
silence, not looking at their mutilatied house. After a
while, he put the car in gear, and started driving
down the slope, going away.

Anti-Racist Teach-In? We in the PLP think the
answer to both questions is that for all of us
no
matter what our race
our lives and material
well-being are directly at stake.
Lester Maddox wants to speak here not merely
to convince people that blacks should be “shot and
stacked up like cordwood” (his actual orders to state
troops when he was governor during the M.L. King
Jr. funeral march); nor is he coming to make some
“academic” point about black "“inferiority.” He
wants to speak in order to provide a rallying point
for racists. He wants to prove to other racists in
hiding that it’s “OK to come out in the open," that
even a blatant racist like himself can give public
speeches at a “northern liberal campus” and get
away with it
even get public support like Gary J.
Doby’s recent pro-segregation, pro-Maddox letter in
The Spectrum.
Like George Wallace, Maddox wants to
encourage racists who secretly agree with him to be
bold and more aggressive. That’s why he passed out
ax handles in Georgia with great fanfare. He also
wants to intimidate and demoralize blacks and all
anti-racists by making us believe that we are a
hopeless minority in the midst of racists. How many
people in Nazi Germany really believed all the
anti-semitic crap? Many, many influential people
were Just scared to disagree and stand up for what
they thought was right.
“Maddox might be a dangerous racist, but he
has a right to speak.” Right? WRONG! “Freedom of
Speech” arguments ignore two facts of life about the
real world; 1) political speech cannot be separated
from political actions. Fascist, racist movements as
in Biafra, Ireland, Pakistan/ Bangladesh (where
racism killed millions) don’t spring up full blown
overnight
they’re organized mainly by written and
spoken SPEECH. Maddox’s racist propaganda has
been responsible for more harm to blacks in Georgia
than his few personal ax handles ever could be; 2)
the notion that ideas should compete in a kind of
cloud nine “free market place of ideas” where the
best ideas will win out totally ignores the fact that,
in reality, racist and anti-working class ideas don’t
-

-

-

compete “freely” or on an “equal footing” with
anti-racist ideas. These ideas don’t exist in a vacuum.
They represent the organizing efforts of antagonistic
classes made up of flesh and blood people who fight
for their interests be they “right” or “wrong.” Was
Hitler stopped by a winning, persuasive argument, or
by a massive movement that deprived him of every
freedom? Racist ideas have big money, government
grants, foundations, TV and radio, publishing firms
and university administrations behind them.
The notion of depriving some people of free
speech is not really so “far out.” Everyone agrees
you can’t yell “fire” in a theater. Most people agree
that slander and libel of innocent people should be
prohibited. Its even illegal today. But Maddox and
company are slandering not only an individual, but
an entire race. And the “damage” (to use the legal
jargon) is human misery beyond estimate. Why
should racists be given more freedom than a two-bit
slanderer?
Some people want to be neutral. They argue
“who are you to decide who shouldn’t speak?” Well,
who is Mr. Burrick to decide that Lester Maddox
SHOULD speak (and get SI500 of our money to
boot)? In the real world (which we don’t like any
more than you do, but it’s the one we live in till we
change it), the rich use their freedom to live and
speak without fear and to have a comfortable,
enjoyable life. Anyone who passively allows racists
like Maddox to organize is not being neutral, no
they’re just helping
matter what he or she thinks
the racists to organize. Wallace, Maddox, Rocky,
Nixon
these guys don’t need our active support.
They just want us to be tolerant of them; they’ll get
enough goons and bigots to do the rest. It’s a funny
kind of “neutrality" to sit back and allow
Lester-shoot-em-and-stack-em-up-likecordwood-Maddox to come recruit on campus, and
then pay him $2500, no less.
Some people sincerely fear that “if we stop
racists from speaking, then they'll stop us too.” But
what little “free speech” we have today was won by
fighting for it, not begging for it. If we let the Lester
Maddox’s organize in this country, we’ll have no
more freedom of ANYTHING than the Germans
under Hitler.

The recent exchange of letters in The Spectrum
on the Progressive Labor Party’s response to the
projected appearance at UB of Georgia’s racist
Lieutenant-Governor Lester
Maddox again
demonstrates the bankruptcy of liberalism, either
PL’s or the Student Association’s, to fight racism on
campus.

In keeping with its rightward plunge, PL seeks a
bloc with liberals on the SA (and the not-so-liberal
Jonathan Dandes) by calling on the SA to cancel
Maddox's speaking engagement. Certainly Maddox is
a racist who deserves no public forum. But the way
to fight Maddox is not by giving the SA the right to
decide which speakers get banned from the campus.
In their rush to line up with the liberals, PL forgets
that this creates illusions in the ability of bourgeois
institutions to fight racism as well as providing those
institutions with an invitation to bar leftist speakers
in the future on the grounds of phony
“impartiality.”
PL fights racism by allying with liberals on the
program of liberalism, i.e., pious denunciations of
racism as an ideology (campaign against racist ideas,

To the Editor.

I write with reference to the brief article in
Wednesday’s The Spectrum which exposed the
speeding traps operated by the Buffalo Police
Department,
From reading the article, I got the impression
that its author unquestionably felt that he (or she)

was performing a public service.
1, like the author, don’t wish people “harrowing
experiences” or that they be in the “unfortunate
circumstance” of getting a ticket; yet I don’t believe
that a public service has been performed by an
article which functions to help speeders in their
speeding. (f drivers want to avoid getting speeding
tickets, thin I suggest that they slow down and take
into consideration pedestrians, cyclists and the other
people who live in the neighborhoods they drive

I live in a neighborhood which has little quiet
because of the constant roar of speeding cars. Dogs
and cats are regularly hit and people have been
injured by speeders just passing through. We have a
neighborhood Block Club, which
to ensure the
safety and well-being of people on the block
is
seeking assistance from the police and traffic
departments in the form of a speeding trap and
traffic signal respectively.
Rather than disarm efforts designed to reduce
speeding, the public interest would have been better
served if the University community was reminded
that automobiles are potentially lethal devices and
that the costs of speeding
or any 'driving for that
matter burden more than just the driver.

described that senseless attack. I remembered that
every New York Times article covering a disaster
always has a list of the dead and injured from the
New York City area. The article is found and the list
is discovered anew
what was skimmed before is
devoured now, and on the list of injured is the name
of Henry Leppo. It couldn’t be my friend
his
name was Hank, not Henry.
Y ou read the list three times just to make sure
that is not some horrible mistake maybe the name
will disappear if you just read the list enough times.
The shock hits you
we pledged together five years
ago
poor Hank, he was the only pledge with a car
and he usually wound up picking up his pledgemates
in some God-forsaken place at three in the morning.
I had my first non-dorm meal in Buffalo over at
Hank’s house
of course at the same time getting
lightly drunk while watching the New York Giants
play the Minnesota Vikings on television. Of course
the Giants lost and all of the New York fellows went
home in a blue funk despite the excellent steak.
Hank somehow made it through pledging I’m
still not sure how, but when initiation time came
around we were as tight as brothers and hoping to
keep it that way. Despite the anachronism of
fraternity life, it did serve a purpose in bringing
scared and lonely people together, and then
subjecting them, to similar pressures and problems. It
bound us together, made us one, made us
communicate. That pledging period was a peak for
we could only go downhill in terms of our close
feelings towards each other. As fraternities declined
and as our lives became more fragmented due to the
Buffalo syndrome of isolated apartments and no car,
we saw each other less and less
and each time we
had less to say. Sure, we played football together,
went to parties together, and sometimes just did
nothing together. After a while we had separate lives,
separate worlds
yet the memories of our past
experiences was a bond that nothing could break.
Hank graduated and attempted to get into law
school
but playful Hank who would rather party
just didn’t have the grades and couldn’t get in. But
Hank wasn't the type of guy to quit, so whenever I
saw Hank, which was infrequently, !' always asked
him if he had gotten into law school. I finally heard
that he made a law school, but couldn’t hack it and
left after a semester. Our contact became loss and
less frequent. It had become a tri-cornered
relationship with a mutual friend acting as a
clearinghouse through which we passed information.
The last time I saw Hank was about a year ago
in Norton Hall
I noticed him standing on a line
waiting to get into a movie. He had come up, to visit
some friends and it was just by accident that our
paths crossed.
Hank died this week to his friends in Buffalo
it was an unexpected announcement because we
thought he was getting better. I know people die all
the time
I know that Hank’s death was just one
more in a long series of senseless tragedies. 1 know
that our country in the last decade has brought
death to many Asian and American homes. Yet he
was a friend of mine. The last time we saw each
other we exchanged meaningless pleasantries and
then I said, “Sec ya later,” How else do you say
goodbye to a friend?

He's much better with a band
"As time goes by it's amazing how appropriate
songs become. Hey, does anyone know who Terence
Norman is? Well, a few years ago Terry was on the
campus at Kent State. He was the one who pulled
the trigger. It turns out now that Terry was an FBI
agent. Yeah, this just came out (Pause) Man\ it's
amazing how appropriate songs become as time goes
on." And with that, David Crosby went into the
corwd's selection for his encore, "Long Time Gone."
That's the way it was, Wednesday night,
September 19. David Crosby would talk to the
corwd, giggle for no particular reason, and then play.
Appearing without a back-up group, Crosby's
mellow voice filled every cubic inch of Century
Theater. Generating a great deal of emotion, both in
his guitar playing and his singing, David repeatedly
received thunderous applause after each song.

A lot better with band
As for me, I didn't applaud. No. not because he
was dragging my head down with his music, but
beacuse I couldn't help forgetting his essential and
influential role with the old Byrds and Stills, Nash
and Young thing. Sure he's an exceptional guitarist
and singer, but he works a hell of a lot better with a
band. Steve Stills is like that, too. Stills will never
make it alone and he knows it. He's strictly a team
man and works better in that format.
When he played "Almost Cut My Hair," I
couldn't help feeling how lacking it was without that
electric sound. The heavy electric lead, the bass and
the drums were undeservingly absent. Crosby did
"Wooden Ships" quite well as his quality-controlled
voice ascended and decended at will. Yet I couldn't
help considering if it was the song as much as the
singer which gave it that air of quality.
David did perform 'Triad," from Four Way
Street," in great style. His loud, sweet tone helped to
explain the story of two women in love iwth the
same man and the man loving them back. The
frustration of the situation was brought across quite
nicely by Crosby. Resounding applause broke the
'

hanging silence of the audience after the song calmed
to arTend
A few Charlie Weaver impersonations later,
Crosby picked up one of his four guitars and lilted
out:
*’

Guinevere had eyes of green, like yours.
Mi'lady, like yours.
When she'd walk down through the garden,
in the morning, after itrained.
Peacocks wandered aimlessly.
Underneath an orange tree.
Why can't she see me?
"Guinevere," a difficult song to play live, was
performed in a floating melodious fashion. I could
feel, once again, the different emotions emanating
from the stage. He's very good at expressing his
feelings and getting them across to an audience. His
deep sensitivity, for different ideas, was manifested
beautifully throughout his performance.
"Here’s a song written by my all-time favorite
writer," and he immediately went into "For Free," a
Joni Mitchell tune from the Ladies of the Canyon Ip.
The spontaneous, giggly, lion-faced Crosby also did
songs from his only solo album, If / Could Only
Remember
My Name, which proved to be dull and
1
spiritless. He's got so much talent that he doesn't
really know what to do with it.
John David Souther, a friend of Jackson
Brown's opened the show with a disappointingly
short set. I say disappointingly short because of his
tremendous abilitiy. He performed, by himself, a
number of realty good country folk-blues ballads in
an original and distinct style. His lyrics were tangible
and his melodies were light and moving. Souther
sang quite well as his powerful, full voice held the
impatient audience's attention.
He played a few songs from his only album
along with a few new tunes. John David Souther is
one of the best up-and-coming artists that I've seen
in the last two years. I hope we'll be hearing more
} :?■:
from him soon.

S/ee concert

Quartet provides an
excellent rendition
Monday night the second concert in the Slee series of Beethoven's
string quartets was given in Baird Hall by the Cleveland Quartet. They
performed the Harp Quartet, No. 19, Op. 74, in E-flat major,'the
Quartet No. 2, Op. 18 No. 2, in G major, and the Quartet No. 1 4, Op.

131, in C-sharp minor.
These three quartets represent Beethoven's middle, early, and late
periods of composition, respectively. Contrasting styles in these periods
allow for a well-rounded program that does not become tedious.
Indeed, it is this contrast which enables each presentation of the six
concert series to sound fresh.
Performed first was Quarted No. 19, whose nickname, the Harp,
comes from the abundance of pizzicato in the first movement. It begins
with a slow introduction which is thematically related to the adjoining
allegro. In this allegro, the pizzicato theme is passed around the
quartet, gaining momentum as it goes. The second movement, an
adagio, is a theme and variations, very romantic in nature. Its texture is
dense; a foreshadowing of the Brahms quartets to come years later
(which the Cleveland Quartet has recorded on RCA).
Who's on third?
Third is a scherzo, whose motival theme is the familiar
three-shorts-and-a-long from Beethoven's Fifth Symphony, written at
about the same time. Even the sequencing pattern is similar to that of
the allegro of the Fifth, although in the quartet the motive is much
more rapid. Another theme and variations formed the last movement,
this time in a more classical style.
Throughout this work, as well as the rest of the concert, the
Cleveland Quartet displayed the kind of musicianship and unity which
makes you think that they've been playing together forever. Not only
do they know their music, they know each other.
The second work on the program was the Quartet No. 2, written
when Beethoven was about thirty years old. Its elegant but lighthearted
outer movements make it a logical successor to the quartets of Haydn
and Mozart. More daring is the interruption of the slow movement with
an allegro section.
Grand finale
Closing the concert was the C-$harp minor Quartet, No. 14, a work
which Beethoven considered his finest achievement. A mamoth work, it
consists of seven movements played without interruption, making it
very clemanding on the performers. The Cleveland Quartet proved
themselves up to it in a thrilling performance that brought a good
portion of the audience to its feet. Their entries in the fugal first
movement were clear and the cantabile fourth movement simply sang.
An organic thread which runs through this work and takes on a
different meed or color each time it surfaces. The fifth movement of
this piece is a fine example of Beethoven's sense of humor. It begins
with a loud burst by the cello alone which makes it seem that the cello
started too early.
The whole movement is a series of reiterations and child-like tunes
that race along merrily. Cellist Paul Katz said that the endless repetition
in this movement reminds him of the children's joke about Pete and
Repeat sitting on the fence. That's the kink of spirit that this
movement has.
But the climax came with the finale
a galloping, forceful
statement by the ageing Beethoven. The Cleveland Quartet was very
sharp on the attack and brought out the full power of this movement.
They were called back to the stage several times by the applause which
they had surely earned.

'Visions of Eight'; a portrayal
of the Twentieth Olympiad
by Randi Schnur
Spectrum Film Critic

-

marathon runners, and others, probably including
each shot of every contestant in the entire film,
examine an involvement which sometimes seems to
border on the insane. Asked to comment on the
murders of the eleven Israelis slain in the Olympic
Village, a runner photographed by Schlesinger
changes the subject with the remark that "I'm here
for one thing, and that's to run a marathon,"
Another major preoccupation of most of the
eight was with the reactions of the losers. When an
athlete knew he had done well, he simply waved to
the audience and smiled; those who had failed, on
the other hand, fell over, stomped off the field,
cried, smiled bravely, stared stonily ahead of them,
and showed a thousand other expressions of
resignation or disgust.
French director Claude Lelouch devoted his
whole portion of the film to The Losers, and some
of his longer sequences show the really heartbreaking
pain of athletes whose entire lifetimes have been
leading up to this one tragic defeat.

Behind Visions of Eight is a very exciting idea:
eight international directors gathered at the 1972
Olympic Games in Munich to record their personal

from the diners. Last scene: in bed, of course
the
Oemeure Wife in skimpy silk nightshirt, and Husband with
"tentpole in tunic."
Perhaps it is harsh to say this program is entirely poor;
however, it is entirely trite. For that reason, though some
of the comic scenes are good, they are certainly not good
enough to redeem the rest of the program. Adam’s Rib
does make its points, but one must examine both the
nature of these points and how they are presented. This
particular program is obviously trying to make a statement
about women's plight in today's world, but the issues
chosen (at least in this episode) are very passe. The
characters are annoyingly stereotypical.
All in all, it is but another example of the
Establishment (excuse the expression) adapting and
commercializing a controversial topic, ingesting it, and
spewing forth a very mangled but sufficiently mild

Adam's ftib, a new television series on ABC, is a
romantic comedy based on the Hepburn—Tracy classic of
yesteryear; revised and ruined. The theme: tvyo lawyers
who are vehement standard-bearers in the courtroom, and
earnest spouses in the bedroom. Very cute.
This week's episode was entitled Two Pairs ofPants. It
began with the young couple arriving at Chez Pierre's, a
very "swanky" restaurant, where they are refused service
on the grounds that Blythe Danner (the wife) is
"indecently dressed" (i.e., wearing forgive the Misguided
Woman pants!).
She proceeds to argue, but decides to invoke her
husband (Ken Howard) to share in her disgruntlement and
present him with the priviledge of having "the last word."
(That's liberation.) The maitre d', however, wins his case
with a threat to call the police. This is unfortunate for
both the couple (after all, they were hungry) and us, for
the program, at thispoint, begins.

Of course, here, two "chicks" enter with read-end-low
skirts, which inevitably compels Howard to ogle. But
Danner, being the "open-minded," "far-out" Wife, is not
insulted by his gesture. She does, however, make an
intelligent statement regarding dress: Women wearing
men's clothes are considered "chic," but men wearing
women's clothes are arrested.
The action then moves to the following day; Danner is
at her office, still thinking about pants, and sounding out
her (female) secretary on the matter. After some initial
stillness, Danner receives "divine inspiration" for an
educational experience to convince "hubby" that skirts are
a curses to all who wear them.
Danner goes to her husband's office and attempts to
convince him to wear a new dress she has bought him. She
has carried through her side of the bargain by wearing
men's clothes, and feel he shouls do the same. Finally,
Howard submits, gives express orders to his staff that he
must not be disturbed, and tries on the "new him."

puptll).

First it was Jerry Lewis. Then it was Don Rickies.
Now they're doing it to Sammy Davis Jr. Most of you will
agree that the writers, producers, and directors are the
backbone of any successful TV venture. Take a great singer
like Sammy Davis Jr., give him a lousy script and show
format and what have you got: instant disaster! NBC
Follies, which can be seen weekly at 10:00 p.m. Thursday
nights, is just that. Mickey Rooney co-stars with Davis in
this hourly variety.
The show is a pot-poUrri of just about everything;
from singing to comedy to dancing to circus acts styled
after a gala Las Vegas night club act, complete iwth
dancing girls.
Sammy's singing comprises the only good spots on the
show, since that is what has made him the great entertainer
he is. But Sammy is hardly given a chance to sing. The
hour is mostly abused by poorly-written, childish, comedy
sketches, special guest stars doing dubbed-in songs, and
extravagant dancing routines which, at the most, are
extremely boring.
Comically, the show should be much better; those
silly, time-consuming dance numbers should be mercifully
killed, and the number of songs done by Sammy Davis
should be increased. He has a great talent, why not use it
to its f&amp;llest? But writers, producers, and directors are a
very stubborn lot and usually don't change their original
ideas. I can't possibly see this show lasting more than half
a season, if it lasts that long at all.
It's just one lengthy hour of total boredom
recommended to no one but people who find some remote
pleasure in being bored. As I watched NBC Follies last
Thursday night, I constantly found myself gazing up at the
dock, waiting in great anticipation of something a little
more heartening and entertaining
like the 11 O'clock
news. Too bad about Sammy Davis Jr. It's such a waste of
a great talent.

Calucci's Department

Danner and Howard (finally settling on outfits for
costume party), Howard shifts gears, becomes The Lawyer,
and strides out of his office with the intention of
commanding his staff and getting things done. They are
naturally taken aback and find ti hard to regard his orders
very seriously.
The show finally ends with Howard's concession that
pants are better. The couple decide to try Chez Pierre once
again; Danner is to meet Howard at the restuarant. She
comes to the door, again in pants. As the maitre d' comes
over to turn her out, she does a wonderful strip-tea$e,

business every Friday at 8:00.
Calucci is played by James Coco, the type of actor
who you know you've seen, but cannot place where. He is
involved in a show where the dialogue is obvious, and the
attempt to bring in social relevancy and poke fun at sacred
cows is so phony that it actually is painful to experience.
The plot itself is simple: Ramon (Jose Perez), a Puetro
Rican, finds himself in heavy debt due to betting the
horses (a member of a minority with a vice!) He asked his
pal, supervisor Joe Calucci, to lend him the cash to pay off
the debt. The ensuing debate on what is good living
includes such memorable tines as; (Coco) "A thrilljs
buying your own linoleum, being friends with the
butcher" and (Perez) "I've had a different girl every night
since I was twelve, and it was worth every cent they spent
on me."
From here Calucci decides to meet El Elephante, the
Puetro Rican muscleman coercer, for Ramon. What results
is little more than a moral lesson on the value of
friendship, as Ramon shows up and each man sticks his
neck out for the other and gets the stuffing knocked out
of him. Even this "touching" lesson that a friend is worth
fighting for does not work, as Coco rolls his eyes and the
audience lets out embarassed giggles as Ramon tells his
friend that he loves him for all that he had done. That is
what is called getting a cheap laugh.
Gay lib, high prices, gambling, sex, minorities; and of
course unemployment were all weaved in at one time or
another. And yet, this attempt at relevant comedy mixed
with the same tireless plots of past sit-coms never really
comes off. The plot is thin, the dialogue is predictable, and
the humor is aimed at the adolescent level. This is not to
say that Calucci's Department is the worst show ever seen,
but even the station identification was more original (I
mean, who ever sees a big eye in the sky with letters on its

The New Perry Meson
(Hem Burger)
You've got to hand/it the CBS Any station that dubs a
new series The New Perry Mason and puts it opposite Walt
Disney's Wonderful World of Color has got to have some
mighty high hopes and a lot of chutzpah. The title by itself
brings to mind clear images, even to people who never saw
the original series. So, last Sunday at 7:30,1 chose to miss
Funny Girl for the fourth time and watch instead an
unsatisfying shadow of a series that once was.
Besides the fact that all the old Earl Gardner
characters are back, in name at least, and each episode is
entitled "The Case Of The ..and D.A. Burger (played
well by Harry Guardino) never wins a case, this new show
hardly resembles the old one.
Young Monte Markam plays a rather unconvincing
Mason. The trusting father image of defending lawyers, as
set by both Raymond Burr and Carl Betz, is junked here as
we see Markam jump from the race track to high society
parties that feature fashion shows, back to his plush
furnished office, complete with an attractive blonde
secretary.

This doesn't sound like the old team of Perry Mason
and Della Street to me. Who would ever dream of making
either Barbara Hale or Burr sex objects? The bags under
Markham's eyes are probably due more to hang-overs than
to burning the midnight electricity looking for case
loopholes.

In the courtroom, he really blows it. This Perry
doesn't have either the ability to make a strong, emotional
"Clinton JJudd"-type plea, or the cool subtle confidence
of a "Colombo" which would make the greatest of
criminal masterminds realize they have met their match
and confess to almost anything. However, these
professional baddies do break down, and it all looks
phony.

So far the situations Mason finds himself in appear

"Find me some contemporary situation comedy based
on today’s real problems in believebale settings," cried the
network brass. Riding this wave of "get with it" sentiment,
a couple by the name of Renee Taylor and Joe Bologna
came out with the idea of following the adventures of the
inhabitants of a state employment office, headed by a
lovable supervisor.
This novel idea of setting a sit com in an institution
which admits social trouble gained attention, and along
with executive producer Bob Precht, Taylor and Bologna
pulled the wool over CBS's lone logo eye, slapped the title

equally as forced. In one episode, he is both the key
witness for the prosecution and the defending lawyer. How
does he pull this off? Simple, he is put on the stand and
after being questioned by the D.A., he begins to
cross-examine himself taking the opportunity to draw

some assumed conclusions. The judge has enough sense of
justice to stop the transformation of courtroom to circus.

It's all very sticky and need much work. Still, even if
the scripts turn towards courtroom drama and away from
the "Perils of Perry" situations, Walt has nothing to worry
about.

�Let's Get It On Marvin Gaya (Tamla)
Let's Get It On is as reasonable and
worthwhile a proposition as any of us are
likely to receive this year. Stop for a
minute and think about it. The legendary
Buffalo winter is a few short weeks away.
Soon enough we'll each be swaddled in Air
Force parkas in any of the two available
colors, marching stiffly from refuge to
refuge. We’ll run compulsively to any
cultural events that present themselves. For
instance: An opportunity to relive those
glorious seventies (gag) with the Dead in
the indimace of our own hockey palace
(suffering nuremburgst), or to be totally
freaked and confused by Mott, and the
lovely and talentless New York Dolls
(glittering butterballsl). To this desperate
situation it can only be added that
members of the Allman Brothers Band
continue to smash up all their motorcycles,
not recently resulting in death, yet it all
seems a shame to waste even a near-miss on
anyone with talent and vision, given the
wealth of worthier targets. So, it's like the
man on the radio says, the summer's over,
the days are getting shorter, the nights are
getting longer and students across the land
are wondering how and where to spend
those nights-. The bar scene sucks and even
Billy Altman got bored with Colombo.
Marvin, you see, has an idea. It's like
one of those dippy LSD exploitation
records of the fabulous sixties which had
listening instructions tike "to be listened to
in the dark" or even "for added effect like
this spot." He wants us to put on this
album, stay home and make love. You find
another consenting adult, create a mellow
atmoshphere, some food or wine, and by
side two you should be making whoopee. I
am pleased to report that it works pretty
well indeed, people find themselves in very
mellow and responsive moods. Marvin has
put some sparse and simple liner notes on
the inside cover explaining his attitudes
about love and sex and all the rest. Right
before a realty inappropriate quote of T.S.
Eliot's, something about copulation and
death r~ T.S., we all know, was not much
Gaye writes: "I hope the
of a fucker
music that I present here makes you
lucky." He's too modest, this perfectly
beautiful album provides a really erotic
atmosphere. For one think the Gaye-Ed
Townsend production is remarkably
restrained and controlled. They hold the
production down to a level which is not
flashy or pretentious, but absolutely full
and economical. Throughout both sides the
music is cohesively solid, stressing stamina
over novelty. Do you get the message?
All of side one is essentially a working
out of the title track, which we all know
by now due to all the airplay it's getting as
a single. The opening and closing tracks are

the music is his mode of expressing all the
beauty inherent therein. Question: What is
going on with this music? Intellectually, it
is clear that something is strangely unique.
The theory, the chords, the harmonies, it

all sounds strange but since I don't know
anything about that, it just sounds funny.
But it's right. ATid it sounds like outer
space.
Being an earthman, I have a hard time
relating to it, thinking along purely
earthward lines. For example, I sometimes
imaging John Coltrane, or for that matter,
Mahatma Ghandi, singing Rocket number
nine take off for the planet, to the planet,
Venus! Zoom, zoom, zoom, up in the air!
Zoom, zoom, zoom, up in the air! Or
something like that. But that, too, gets
boring, being purely along earthward lines,
so we go back to side one, and memories of
the gold lamee dancers come rushing back,
along with Ra's own Space Crown. Lord of
Outer Space. King of The Undiscovered
Eons. How thrilled I was when he shouted
in my ear all the names of the planets in a
tenth of a second before he moved on to
the next person. It was a Space Parade and
everyone was very happy except for the
dude who was too cool for outer space,
and we all laughed because we knew that
outer space was cooler than anybody.

.1973

and pretty soon played fine harmonic
variations (on piano) on "Stella By
Starlight" and other ballads. Van Leer
Senior, however, was not very happy to see
a possible Mozart gradually becoming a
probable Billy Evans. Being an
extraordinary flutist himself, he started to
teach young Thijs the intricacies of this old
and difficult instrument.
Thijs met up with Willem Duys, his
manager, which resulted in a single nobody
took notice of. In the late 1960's he helped
form a Dutch rock group called Brainbox.
Here he met Jan Akkerman, a tremendous
lead guitarist in his own right. Brainbox
was mildly successful and helped put Van
Leer on the map.
From here Thijs and Akkerman formed
Focus and became internationally famous
on the merits of Hocus Pocus and a couple
of good solid albums. The group has
accumulated prizes in festivals all over
Europe, as well as the 1971 Edison Award,
and has received an abundance of praise
from certain music critics.
Introspection, an appropriate title I may
add, goes back to J.S. Bach on two cuts
dtled "Erbane Dich" and "Agnus Dei." On
"Erbane Dich," Van Leer's mellow flute is
playing in the foreground and is supported
by a harpsichord and violins in the
background. Letty De Jong also
contributes by singing the melody (no
lyrics are involved) in combination with
Thijs' flute. The cut is moving as different
light melodies follow one another in
perfect coordination.
"Focus Two" is also on
album. The
cut originally appeared on Moving Waves,
the first Focus Ip. Now Van Leer has
removed Akkerman's heavy guitar lead and
has made it more classical in nature by
adding strings in the background. Van Leer
has integrated classical music into his style
in such a way that it treads on
sophisticated pop music. Ron Hunter has
used the cut, interestingly enough, on his
newscast a number of times.
"Pavane, Op. 50" is another good
instrumental on the album. It's also very
classical in style. You can hear the violins,
oboes and horns in the background. Van
Leer's flute is up front, but not for the
entire time. Sometimes the percussion
section will come in with soft taps on the
bells. This cut is very peaceful, like a slow
love ballad. It makes you feel content and
relaxed, as do many of the other cuts.
"Rondo" is a quick tune that features a
pair of clarinets every now and then. Thijs
trades off flute leads with the clarinets.
"Rondo" sounds much like a marching
tune,, but not quite as rhythmically heavy.
Introspection is a fine Ip. It shows Van
Leer's classical training, proves his ability
as a flute player and demonstrates his
remarkable sense of style and form. The
question now is, in which direction will he
go? Does he now consider Focus as part of
'
his past?
/

Yeah,

Space is the place (alright) Outer
space is a pleasant place (rrimm mmm
mmm) Space is the place fya ya ya) Owder
Space Owder Space (don't you know) is a
pleasant place (don’t you know?).

And there is a reason after all. And that
is: What the hell do you think you're doing
here? (prisoners of gravity).
Norman Salant

Introspection Thijs Van Laer (Columbia)
Thijs Van Leer has come a long way
musically and has finally matured into a
respected
composer and performer.
Introspection, his first solo effort, has
separated him from the sound of Focus,
idealistically as well as musically. Thijs
plays only flute, with heavy classical
intonations, on the album, only receiving
help from the beautiful voice pf Letty De
Jong and
orchestra in the background.
Doesn't sound a bit like Hocus Pocus, does
it?
At the young age of three. Van Leer
began playing the piano seriously. When he
was thirteen, he became interested in jazz

I woke up one morning 'cause Zappa

stroking his leg to show him how scared he
was of being gay and he kept pissing in my

was scared of being gay even though he got
hard and insisted on denying he was and
kept on pissing to prove it.

Frank formed his first group by taking
all his friends who had no musical talent
into his basement and teaching them all to

how desperate Frank was to become a

was having its cumulative effect. An

just
so Beefheart
would remain
unemployed and ease the competition.
On the Freak Out album Frank had the
insight to list Eric Dolphy as an influence.
This immediately brought him to the
attention of the editors of Downbeat
magazine who needed a white performer to
idolize and keep the magazine's circulation
up. With all the awards they've given him
he's been able to melt down a sizeable
abount of amtter and press his latest
album, Over-nite Sensation.
With Ruth Underwood in the group,
Frank has let his sexuality really blossom. I
saw them perform last May in Rochester
and Frank's antics on stage had Ruth's
husband Ian furiously jealous apparently
Frank has been paying no attention to Ian
lately, or any other male member of the
band. They all got their pictures printed on
the inside cover, though: Ponty posed with
his violin lest we forget, George Duke looks
like he swallowed his moog which might
explain its absence, Sal Marquez seems to
have been confused with the engineers, and
we all know who Ruth Underwool is really
smiling at.
"Montana" is the longest song on the
album 'cause it has the most lyrics and
Frank does his Rex Harrison imitation,
which is nothing like when he sang it last
May in Rochester and shouted in the
middle: "How do you like that,
gurooooo?" because John McLaughlin
played before him. Frank told me he
hoped to get on the Julie Andrews show
unfortunately the
doing that imitation
show was cancelled a few days after they
filmed the segment with Frank, so he
wrote a song about TV for the album and
hired a few soul singers with megaphones
and laryingitis to wail away on the
choruses and you know Frank still has to
have something to get the girls excited by
singing about dentpl floss.
When I asked Frank about the music on
the album he said: "It's sex that really gets

a punch to the gut going uphill in a
blinding rain, tearing the goggles and tying

"Well podners, ah'm droppin out."
"How come?"
"Ah'm outa gold is how come. 'N ah'm
feelin' kine-o-weary besides. Night y'atl."
"Night Bo."
"Night Bo."
"Night Bp." And went on with the
game. Bo, effervescency placid, face
relaxed, shallow, and slightfy drawn,
watched them. Then someone noticed him.
"Hey Bo, ah thote yo was splittin. How
come yo still here?"
"Don't rightly know. Jes' cain't move."
"Cain't move? Watcho talkin 'bout, Bo?
'Course y'can move."
Bo didn’t reply, just shrugged his
shoulders and blinked slowly.
"Watcho mean, yo cain't move?! Bo,
ah'm talkin t'yo."
"GODDAM ah

said befo'. Ah don't know why. ah jes'

"Weeelltl, if yo wants to set tthere so

So they went on with their game,
paying Bo no mind at he drifted off into
paranoid and egotistical thoughts, and it all
would have been forgotten except that it
was a very tough game.
Jon stood up, leaning heavily on the
table. 'That's all for me. Cleaned out.
Night y'all."
So Ace gathered up the cards
nonchalantly and then, veiy unsuddenly,
they too discovered they couldn't move.
There was no explanation. They just
couldn't move. It was really very strange.
They not only couldn't move, they didn't
want to. They were completely drained of
all energy, totally sapped, and they could
feel their eyes trying to roll up. Then
thoughts began coming, thoughts about
everything in general and nothing in
particular.
JOn wondered what had
become of the tradition of female admirers
and in the next instant was thinking about
his parents. Ace was recreating his eleventh
birthday at the same time as he was trying
to figure out why he couldn't stand up.
Freddie thought of conversion of color to
bleak and white, and Bo, who had been
there and back a dozen times already since
he had a bit of a head start, was getting
warmer when he flashed on how many
times he fell asleep listening to those
Fleetwood Mac records he stole from the
library. Gradually the realization grew that
the Allman Brothers were still on, and he
began to listen more closely. And listening
to the Allman Brothers made his lack of
movement and energy complete somehow.
He flashed again on decadence and
Fleetwood Mac, and for a moment thought
he had the answer but it didn't fit, it was
something else, something that made him
sad and empty. No, decadence was not the
answer, the Allman Brothers were anything
but decadent, but what then?- He drifted
off to visualize gears and pistons, gray
steam, but was brought back when his eyes
felt on Ace's right hand, which held the
deck. At that moment Ace passed out all
the cards fell on the floor, and revealed
their secret to Bo. The deck was stripped.
He saw it. He saw and he knew. The last
thing he heard was Igor, who also know,
laughing vindictively in the corner.

"The massive anti-war demonstrations
of the sixties prompted the FBI to
reconsider and accept Hoover's original

but to allow agents to indentify each other.
The Black Panthers, who were very hip to

handshake as a confusing tactic and
eventually a whole generation received a

"The FBI becam
frustrated in their attempts to infiltrate

was the travelling agent band, performing
FBI agents who could control a huge
audience on- or off-stage. Using the alias of
Marshall Tucker (the real assasin of J.F.K.),
and imitating a well-known group in order
to insure immediate success, the FBI has
moved into the 1970's."

"But without labels you think you’re

But you gotta do more than just change a

Bang the drum slowly
by Mitchell- Lipchitz
Spectrum Film Critic
Bang the Drum Slowly falls into the category
of formula film. From the outset we learn that
the main character has a terminal disease. The rest
of the movie is rather straightforward with few
surprises. All it accomplishes is showing how a
person exists knowing that the end can come at
any time.
Robert De Niro plays Bruce Pearson; catcher
for the New York Mammoths. The success of this
picture is directly attributed to his performance.
Pearson is the one with Hodgkins disease. Unlike
other movies dealing in death where the victim is
handsome, intelligent, and procificent at whatever
he does, Pearson is only the third-string catcher,
not very good-looking, and rather dumb.
It is because of his rather mediocre character
that a light of originality shines through. It also
adds to the pathos of the movie. Realism emerges
when the guy who dies is just another
insignificant part of the populous, rather than
some super-hero.

The buttery
The only person who knows about Pearson's
condition is his roommmate, Henry Wiggens,
played by Michael Moriarity. Wiggens is just the
opposite of Pearson: intelligent, good-looking,
and an ace pitcher. The two of them set up a
relationship like that of “George" and "Lenny"
from Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men. Wiggens takes
care of Pearson, takes him to the Mayo clinic and
helps Pearson conceal his condition from the rest
of the teammates and the manager.
The manager is played by Vincent Gardenia.
You might remember him from the movie Little

'O Lucky Man!' is a
very worthwhile film
by Bonnie Semons
Spectrum Film Critic

Murders in which he plays the father. He's great
in this movie too. Me is instrumental in setting up
the comical scenes in Beat the Drum of which
there are many. Gardenia has a face which he
easily contorts into any shape he wishes. His
acting is alive. While he's making you laugh you
have to ask yourself, "What am I laughing for
when the story is telling me to cry?"
Not a bawl game
Well, you don't get a chance to cry. The
Mamoths are caught up fn a pennant race, and
that's what's important. Twenty-five percent of
the movie takes place on the baseball field. But
the team is plagued by internal unrest. As the
season ends, the teammates are getting on ech
other's nerves and lockerroom fights are flaring
up all the time. Not until the rest of the team
accidentally finds out about Pearson's illness do
they start getting along. Pearson doesn't even
know it, but because of his sickness the
Mammoths become champions.
In the most poignant scene of the movie
(shot in slow motion), Pearson finds himself in a
daze and ready to collapse. The whole team
rushes to him and carry him off the field just as
they have won the game.
Becoming too sick, Pearson has to leave the
team right before the World Series. He says
good-bye to Wiggens at the airport and tehs him
he'll be back for spring training. The Mamoths go
on to win the Series and Pearson dies. At the
funeralWiggens is the only one from the team to
show up. The Mammoth organization doesn't
even send a note of condolences. I guess you
could say that the movie never plays on phony
sentimentality.

0 Lucky Man! may well be Malcolm McDowell's symbolic concept
of his life. It is said that McDowell once did a stint as a saleman; a
capitalist doggedly pursuing success.

Considering the movie, it is very plausibale. The film is a constant
flux and influences and ideas. It changes rapidly from one encounter to
the next, and, although it is confusing at first, the moods and the
methods soon mesh like clockwork.
McDowell (as Michael Travis) experiences heaven and hell, sin and
purity, fantasy and reality. He's the Billy Pilgrim of the modern set; he
tries to conform to and understand this existential world that
fluctuates beyond his naive comprehension.
The voice of sanity, in the film, a voice that is dry and tempered,
belongs to Alan Price. Price's lyrics are truth, his music relieves the
tension of suspense. Together they encourage the feeling that the
audience, too, is on some vague magic carpet ride, with modern
technology providing the current and the direction.
Fortunate flim-flammers
The lucky men, the men that succeed, are the men that fly our
carpet. Politics and technology are their games, glass and steel are their
sanctuaries, manipulation is their method. They are the masters of the
super-swindle.

McDowell spins 180 degrees in this tolm. Beginning his business
career in London, he is an ambitious, optimistic coffee salesman (for a
company that sells processed Nigerian coffee back to Nigeria). He tours
England and Scotland, getting cuddled, cudgled, cajoled, and
contorted. He emerges capitalistic, back in London, but he hasn't even
begun to learn.
Thinking that he has the formula for fame and wealth, he takes up
with Sir James (Ralph Richardson). Sir James, as the kingpin, capitalist,
teaches the game to Traivs, who ;doesn't discover the truth until he is
sentenced to a five-year stay in a London prison.
Cinamtaic crusade
After five years of isolation, our hero rejoins society, determined
to follow his star in the slums of London. Preaching to society's victims
(against a bulletin board backdrop that declares "Revolution is the
opium of the intellectuals"), is too painful and fruitless for Travis to
bear. Film, McDowell j$ saying, is the only medium that the people will
accept as a tool of revolution.
The substructure of the movie is masterful. Each actor (except
MMcDowell) successfully portrays several characters, to further
fry .'A
illustrate the theme of flux.
Jocelyn Herbert is the production designer, an imaginative woman
with The Loves of Isadora to her credit. The suitable beauty and mood
of the film is successfully captured by Miroslav Ondricek's camera
who has some weird opinions about hell and heaven on earth.

'Visions of Eight'
laughter from the audience.
A very different and much more important
tragedy was referred to only in passing. Although the
titles at the end declare that the film was made "in
memory of the eleven slain Israeli athletes, tragic
victims of their time," only two of the eight
directors even seem to have noticed the strong
political
undercurrent running through the
Twentieth Olympiad.
In The Beginning, a section devoted to "the
tension of waiting," Soviet director Juri Ozerov
included shots of the thousands of spectators
"unprepared for the shadow of tragedy," while John
Schlesinger, apparently somewhat bolder, spent
about five minutes on his marathon runners'
comments on the newspaper headlines they could
—

They came very close, though. Perhaps that
"obsession" of which Mai Zetterling spoke was
responsible for the oversight, but it is very difficult
to believe that so many people were so totally
unaffected by the terrorists around the corner.

close-ups of the burning gases swirling aroung the
sun to the lighting of the 'Olympic Torch, is
pretentious but beautiful. However, for much of the
rest of the movie, motion was slowed down, speeded

up, and otherwise distorted so much that the whole
thing gets more than a little bit boring.
In The Women, Michael Pfleghar uses slow
motion to turn Olga Korbut's routing on the uneven
parallel bars into a stunning aerial ballet. Kon
Ichikawa's sequences with short-distance runners,
shot at one-fourth normal speed, dramatically
illustrate his conception of their sport as "modern
man's search for freedom."
Twenty minutes of Arthur Penn's pole vaulters
floating silently in an out of focus got to be too
much, though, as did Milos Forman's speeded-up
decathlon judges. Also, Forman's intercutting of
exhausted athletes collapsing all over each other with
shots of a performance of the Ode to Joy from
Beethoven's Ninth Symphony was rather humorless,
along with Zetterling's comparison of the huge
weitfitlifters with sides of beef.
Still, this is quite a fascinating film. Sports
aficionados should probably wait for reruns of the
real thing, but Visions of Bight is definitely well
worth seeing.

�Psychomat

An open, honest experience

AGTIONLINE
Have a problem? Need help? Do you find it impossible to untangle
the University bureaucracy? In cooperation with the Office of Student
Affairs and Services, The Spectrum sponsors Action Line, a weekly
reader service column. Through Action Line, individual students can
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 Center
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 i this column each week.
Q; When is the deadline for filing a degree requirement card?
A: October 30th for January completion. February 15, 1974 for

May completion.

Q: Can an undergraduate take graduate level courses?

A; Yes, however permission must be obtained within the first two
weeks after the beginning of instruction. You must also meet the
following criteria; (1) junior or senior standing and acceptance into an
academic major or approved Special Major, (2) overall GPA of 3.0
including transfer credits and completion of prerequisites for the
graduate course, (3) written recommendation from the course
instructor to show academic necessity and rationale for taking the
course. Forms are available at the Dean’s office in Hayes and from the
DUS advisors in Diefendorf.

If you need to work things out,
approach difficulties, or meet
people. Psychomat may be what
you are looking for. It provides an
open, informal group experience
with minimal commitments from
participants.

Psychomat is directed by a
supervisory
group
of
“facilitators.” All hough there is
no one authoritative figure,
several corleaders have been
trained to create an atmosphere of
honesty, support and trust. The
co-leaders
were
originally
members of the Counseling Center
in Harriman Library, the Norton
Union staff, or were selected
becaiise they had been active
members of Psychomat.
According to one co-leader, the

main

difference between the
participants and the co-leaders is
that the latter have more
experience in dealing with certain

problems. Explaining that “before
you want to help other people,
you must first take care of your

own needs,” he said he had been
greatly

helped
in “finding
direction” from Psychomat.

Problems discussed
In the past, people have
attended Psychomat sessions to
work out specific family, divorce,
insecurity and school problems.
One divorcee felt that he had
learned to readjust to other
people and find, a new lifestyle by
voicing his frustrations to other
members and then following their
suggestions.

At most Psychomat meetings,
the size of the group varies from
ten to 15 people who arrange
themselves in a circle. Usually the
same core of people attend
regularly, but as one participant
pointed out: ,‘There is a genuinely
relaxed
and
atmosphere

newcomers
are immediately
accepted into the group.” He
added that “people can come and
go as they please which makes
them more anxious to open up to
the others.”
Psychomat was founded six
years ago by members of the
Counseling
Center. Faith
Lebenbaum, a counselor at the

Center, hopes to bring Psychomat

to the Amherst Campus. She
would also like to meet with
resident advisors to organize
groups with facilitators on both
campuses
because
she
feels
moving
Psychomat to the
dormitories may give residents a
greater feeling of unity.

The BSR 810 and 710 have their brains in
their shaft. A carefully machined metal rod
holding eight precision-molded cams. When
the cam shaft turns, the cams make things
happen. A lock is released, an arm raises and

the arm is lowered, the arm stops, the arm raises
again, it swings back, another record is dropped

onto the platter, the arm is lowered again,
and so on. for as many hours-as you like.
Deluxe turntables from other companies do
much the same thing, but they use many
more parts—scads of separate swinging arms,

elegant, or as quiet or reliable; that produces
considerably more vibration, and is much
more susceptible to mechanical shock than

Summerlin founder dies
British educator A.S. Neill, founding and guiding force
behind the world famous Summeihill School, died at
Adelburgh, Suffolk this past Tuesday. He was 89 years old.
Mr. Neill established the Summerhill School in 1924
as a progressive institution designed to allow students to
develop their own approach to education. Although the
school was heavily criticized by more traditional
educators, Summerhill met with widespread success. The
methods developed there were particularly helpful in
dealing with difficult students, many of whom had
dropped out of the British public school system.
Government at Summerhill was centered around the
principle of demoractic participation. School policy was
determined at weekly meetings at which each pupil and
adult was entitled to one vote.
Mr. Neill’s book “Summerhill” was widely read in this
country by both students and educators. Its influence has
been Telt chiefly through the creation of several private
schools based on the Summerhill model.
Desert city proposed
Defense Minister Moshe Dayan
TEL AVIV (UPI)
called Tuesday for the creation of a desert metropolis of
hundreds of thousands of jews in the occupied Sinai
Peninsula seized by Israel in the 1967 Middle East War.
Dayan told desert settlers in the Sinai he envisioned
the Israeli port city would someday outstrip in population
the nearby Gaza Strip., which has 370,000 Arab residents.
Dayan called the city Yamit and said it could serve as
a “strategic buffer zone” between Israel and the Gaza
Strip. He said he hoped the city would have hundreds of
thousands of Jews living in it by the end of the century.
Finance Minister Pinhas Sapir and Commerce and
Industry Minister Haim bar Lev have expressed opposition
to the project on economic and political grounds.

Chilean Junta outlaws Labor Union
The ruling military junta
SANTIAGO, Chile (UPI)
announced Wednesday a “belt tightening” program to
restore the Chilean economy and said it would make
increased foreign investment a top priority.
The junta also outlawed the country’s biggest labor
union, the Central Union of Workers. A decree published
by the justice ministry said it was “canceling the charter of
the Central Union of Workers which has transformed itself

In a telegram sent Tuesday to the U.S. Secretary of
Agriculture and other officials, cattle producer Mike

The decree prohibited any references to the union’s
existence, ‘‘either to the organization or its action," and
banned “voiced or written propaganda .referring to
the existence or function of the organization.

Death penalty reinstated
A bill restoring the death penalty in California on a
limited basis was signed today by Gov. Ronald Regan, who
said he regretted the step, but believed the measure would
save lives
The new law which makes execution mandatory in 11
categories of murder, will be applied only to murders
committed after the beginning of 1974.
The January, 1, 1974 effective date of the bill will be
22 and a half months since California’s last death penalty
law was nullified by the State Supreme Court, and six
years, eight and a half months since the last execution in
the San Quentin gas chamber.

Filling stations mobbed
Motorists mobbed the tanks in California Tuesday
after filling station operators who had been closed for four
days to protest the freeze on gasoline prices re-opened,
pronouncing their protest a “tremendous success.”
An estimated 9400 stations from central California to
the Oregon state line had been closed.
If the government permitted only a token increase, a
spokesman warned, the dealers could shut down again
immediately.

The executive director of the National Congress of
Petroleum Retailers said in Little Rock, Ark., that there
would be no need for a nationwide shutdown to protect
gasoline prices because the prices would run service
stations out of business.
“They’re going broke,” said John M. Huemmrich.
“You can’t continue to lose $50 to $100 a day and stay in
business and that’s what the average dealer is losing.”

Domich, Woodland, Calif., said beef on the hoof is now
selling for 22 cents a pound below the level during the
price controls. And he predicted slaughter cattle would
probably be down to 20 cents a pound by the end of the
week, half the price it was a month ago before controls
were lifted. He noted that retailers “have not materially
reduced their prices for beef.”
Domich said there was a glut on the market because
consumers who couldn’t get beef during the freeze
apparently have not gone back to eating beef.
So, complained Domich, the cattle producers are now
getting far lower prices than they would have gotten if
they had sold their cattle during the freeze.

How you express yourself
depends upon your camera

Today all
everybody is getting into photography
And it s not the snapshot variety. People are doing
sports stories, nature stories, portraits—you may
even have a friend who s doing photographs through
a microscope Or a telescope.
You also know that everybody has his own idea
about which camera is Best. That's why it s important
for you to know about the Canon F-1. Because it s the
system camera that s fast becoming the favorite of
professionals. And the new status symbol among
photography enthusiasts

V

The whole F-1 system includes over 40 lenses and
200 accessories. It's capable of doing virtually
everything in photography. So whatever idea you
have for a picture, the F-1 has the equipment to make
sure you get it.
Because it was conceived from the beginning as a
system, it works as a system All the elements are
quickly and easily interchangeable. No matter which
lens or accessory you use with the F-1 body you won’t
have the feeling that something has been
tacked on."
What’s more the F-1 is comfortable to handle.
Years of research went into the design of the F-1 body
and placement of controls so your fingers fall
naturally into place. You'll appreciate this comfort
when you're on assignment. It's also an important
thing to keep in mind if you’re investing in a camera
you plan to keep a long time.
Canon has been in the optics industry over 37
years. We make microscope equipment, amateur and
professional movie cameras and TV lenses. It's this
experience that helps make our still cameras the best
selling cameras in Japan. In America, it's just a matter
of time.
See your dealer for more information. He'll also
show you Canon's other SLR cameras, like the FTb
and iLb. Both of which offer accurate metering, easy
film loading, a wide range of lenses and the same
standard of engineering that goes into the F-1.

Buffalo’s first singles players

that may have had something to do with it.”

guys came back, when they were down one goal, to
go ahead and play fairly good ball,” said Esposito.
“The halfbacks, which are the key to both the
offense and the defense, corrected serious mistakes
from the Syracuse game, and did a much better job
forking together as a unit, and with the team as a
whole.”
—Pltter

Record breaking effort

Led by sophomore inside forward Jude Ndenge,
the Bulls set one individual and four team records
and tied one other individual record for a single
game. Ndenge scored two goals and assisted on two
others to set a new standard for points scored in one
game (4). The six goals represent the most ever for
the Bulls in varsity competition, as does the five-goal
margin of victory. Buffalo also set a record for most
shots taken in a single game. The Bulls outshot the
Griffs by a whopping 35-8 margin.
Esposito commented: “I think there were about

head shot from in front of the goal.
“Tthink the team is beginning to think as a
whole,” assessed Esposito. “I was pleased that we
were giving a second effort, but we’re still not doing
it enough. A true test of what we can do will come
on Saturday *(at Ohio University). I think the guys
have more pride in themselves, and pride as a unit.
With just six lettermen back, we’re just starting to
put things together and work as a unit.”
“If they continue to play like yesterday
(Tuesday),” Esposito added,. “and continue to
correct their mistakes, I’m sure we’ll be able to give
any team a much better game than we showed

Bulls improved
St. Bonaventure’s coach, Pat

Panzarella, said the Bulls have
unproved a lot since last year.
“Last year we came in here two
deep' (i.e., with two strong
players) and did well. This year
we came in here eight deep and
got beat.” Panzarella added: “You
don’t develop many outstanding
players. It’s just the luck of the
admissions draw.” He cited Hank
Maguire as an example. Maguire,
transfer student playing third
singles for the Indians, nearly
defeated the Bulls Marc Miller,
finally losing in three sets. Miller
commented: “In the first two
sets, I just couldn’t return his
serve. He put so much spin on it.”
The Bulls have reached the
halfway mark in their schedule
and ECAC post-season
tournaments are approaching. The
tennis Bulls, however, are
independent this year. It has not
yet been decided if they will play
in the Division I or Division II
tournament of the ECAC.
Meanwhile, they will travel to

College on Saturday.

Canadian Grand Prix

Bad weather and new rules
made for confusion at race
by Steve Sera fin
Spectrum

Staff Writer

“A mess” is about the only way to describe this
year’s Canadian Grand Prix held at Mosport, Ontario
last Sunday. Fate apparently decreed that the Grand
Prix of Canada should not run smoothly.
Four hours after the checkered flag fell, the
scorers finally emerged from their mass of tapes and
times and declared Peter Revson the winner over two
other claimants for the title, Jackie Oliver and
reigning world champion, Emerson Fittipaldi. The
mass confusion resulted from a combination of bad
weather and a new procedure.
Track conditions last Friday were generally
favorable and the times around the 2.4S9 mile
course were quick, though not record breaking. Rain
and dampness hampered Saturday’s times so the
position of the field was acutaily decided by Friday’s
times. Ronnie Peterson in a John Player Lotus won
the pole position with Revson’s McLaren beside him.
Judy Scheckter and Carlos Reutemann were placed
in the second row.
Course soaked
An hour before the race began, rain came down in
buckets, thoroughly soaking the course. With
everyone shod in rain tires, the field blasted off in a
cloud of spray. Revson faltered at the start but
Peterson got off quickly, only to be passed two laps
later by Nikki Lauda. Lauda found the conditions to
his liking and set the pace, lengthening his lead every
lap. However, it soon became apparent that the track
was drying off as the lap times were reduced. Dry

tires on a dry track can increase the speed of a car as
much as 2Smph over rain tires and Lauda made a pit
stop for a tire change. Pit stops are very unusual in a
Grand Prix race, as anyone who pits is nearly out of
contention. However, a (drain reaction began as
everyone tried to improve their times via a tire
change.

The scorers were overloaded but they still seemed
to have most people in their proper place. However,
on the 40th lap when confusion was still rampant,
Scheckter and Francois Cevert came together near
the third turn. According to a new regulation, a pace
car was to go out on the course in a situation like
this and station itself in front of the leader (Oliver).
Passing would not be allowed and confusion would
be minimized while safety would be maximized.
Confusion reigns
The pace car picked up the wrong car which

threw the scorers into a panic. Bulletins were issued
declaring Ganley in the lead; when, in reality, he was
three laps back. After several retractions, Fittipaldi
was declared the leader, while Oliver’s crew thought

he was still the first. No one even counted on Revson
as a possibility until Fittipaldi had completed his
victory lap and was in the winner’s circle. Then the
word came from the scorers that Revson had won.
Several teams immediately lodged protests.

Revson was finally declared the victor with a time
of 1:59:04. Fittipaldi was second, 32 seconds behind
Revson and Oliver was third. It may not be settled
yet, so look for blood in a few people’s eyes at the
U.S. Grand Prix in two weeks.

Mr. Nixon and the White House, denials to the contrary, seem to
be rather eager for Mr. Agnew’s resignation. Time niagazine alluded to
several reasons; one would be to give John Connally, frequently
mentioned as a Vice Presidential successor, a head start in the running
for 1976. Another would be the resolution of the constitutional
question of whether the Vice President can be tried while in office,
thus easing the pressure on Attorney General EUiot Richardson, who
will otherwise have to make that difficult decision. And naturally, by
diversion, to ease the pressure on a Watergate-weakened President
Nixon.

Political opportunity
To be sure, a resignation by the Vice President would be a most

interesting and opportunistic political event. According to the 25th
Amendment to the Constitution, President Nixon would have to
appoint a successor, subject to confirmation by a majority vote of
Congress. The Democrats have threatened to attach a rider to any
acceptance measure of a successor, stating that the new Vice President
would agree not to run for President in 1976. If they cannot
successfully ensure against a non-Presidential candidate, then the field
for possible appointees becomes rather vast. Elliot Richardson, Nelson
Rockefeller, John Connally, Melvin Laird, Barry Goldwater, Hugh
Scott and others have been frequently mentioned as possible
successors.
If the situation arises where the President must make an
appointment it would well serve the Republicans and their chances in
1976 if he would appoint New York’s Governor to the post.
Not only would Mr. Rockefeller be far removed from the problems
and scandals of Watergate, but he would be a shoo-in for the
Republican nomination in ’76. Mr. Rockefeller would represent the
Liberal north-east in an election against the Democrats, who
traditionally rely upon the Liberal Northeast for a large number of
their electoral votes. Former Texas Governor and Treasury Secretary
John Connally is also an attractive Presidental candidate, but as a
recent convert to the GOP, his nomination to the Number Two spot
could quite likely split the Republican party.
But of course, we must deal with the matter at hand. Spiro Agnew
has moved from obscurity into the limelight since 1968,but now he is
under an intense spotlight. His reputation has been shattered, regardless
of the grand jury’s eventual findings. His political career is ruined. But
as a true hungry politician who has fought his way to the top, he has
decided to fight to the end. It is interesting to note that Senator Hubert
Humphrey feels a bit sorry for the Vice President in these troubled
times. Perhaps the former Vice President knows something about life in
politics and the potential political dynamite of “business deals”.
The game appears to be “Don’t get caught,” rather than serve the
people. Not only have a distrubing number of top presidental advisors
been caught, but now the Vice President is under investigation. Our
system of checks and balances has failed. As Congresseional reluctance
has shown, the long involved process of impeachment is far too
cumbersome for today’s mechanized world; a system of Parliamentary
recall would obviously be far more workable.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Student-Wide Judiciary

Dream soon to he a reality
by Michael Butler
Spectrum

The Judiciary will have three levels
the Trial
level, the Appeal level and the Supreme Student
Court. At each level the case is heard by threy
judges. At the Trial and Appeal levels, two of the
three judges must be from the defendant’s own
constituency, while a Supreme Court hearing would
involve one judge from each constituency. SA.GSA
and MFCSA will provide six judges each to staff the
courts; the judges’ initial terms of office will be
either one or two years.

perpetuating various “crimes,”
including the allegations that “In

The Buffalo Police Traffic Division is very
impressed with the effectiveness of their traffic
control program. Speeding convictions involving
radar are difficult to combat in court because the
traffic court relies more on the accuracy of the
radar equipment than the motorists’ word on
how fast he was traveling.

electronic equipment and computers has already
proved a pain to 21,849 drivers who received

Hunt, the place was “full of

“there was no room for people.”
Food Service officials disagreed
with this assessment. “We were
reasonably certain that the Board

official. “It is Hunt who is holding
it up.” Food Service pointed out
that most of the “junk” consisted
of cabinets that were temporarily

have already been removed,
leaving more room for the tables
to be dispersed.

The changes proposed by Mr.
Hunt surpass the removal of the

stated that needed additions
would include tiling the floor,
constructing a covered ceiling

“The President has indicated the interim director
should be someone the Collegiate Assembly can deal
with,” explained Mr. Klopp.
Alternative choices
Dr. Bennett, a member of the Council of
International Studies, had been introduced as the
Administration’s candidate for interim director at
last week’s Collegiate Assembly meeting. When
members of the Assembly balked at voting without
being offered alternatives, it was decided that the
individual Colleges would nominate other
candidates.
Mr. Prosser was then nominated by College E,
and he and Dr. Bennett were interviewed by College
personnel before the College Council selected Mr.
Prosser.
“Mr. Prosser was very impressive,” remarked
one member of the Colleges. Another explained:
“Dr. Bennett is a competent academician and
administrator... but the Colleges need a more
dynamic personality at this time.”
Responding to speculation that some of the
votes for Mr. Prosser may have been “anti-Gelbaum”

�Agnew doing okay despite scandals
by Louis Harris
At a time when public confidence in the Nixon
Administration was hovering around its lowest levels.
Vice President Spiro Agnew was rated on the job he
was doing by no worse than a 49-42 percent
negative margin. In both 1970 and 1971, Mr. Agnew
was less favorably received by the public.
Significantly, the American people were being
very careful not to jump to any conclusions about
charges which had appeared in the press about his
possible involvement in scandals when he held office

harris
poll

In the summer of 1971, when the Vice President
was leading the clarion call against permissiveness
and protest among young people, he reached a low
point in his standing with the public at 52-35
percent negative. His high point was in early 1970
after his attacks against the Eastern liberal press
establishment. By that fall, when he turned his wrath
against youthful war demonstrators, his popularity
fell sharply.
Since 1969, the Harris Survey has conducted a
number of in-depth studies of public reaction to the
controversial Vice President. In the last survey, the
public was asked; “Let me read you some statements
about Vice President Agnew. For each, tell me if you
tend to agree or disagree. (READ STATEMENTS)

The country would be in real trouble if he had to
take over as President.

These results show that Vice President Agnew
has been viewed as a kind of political maverick,
whose many outspoken statements were likely to
“get him in trouble," but the public found him
different and appealing in style, if not in content.
The public showed real ambivalence on his frequent
criticisms of television and the press. People still
liked his taking the press to task, but there has been
a steadily rising suspicion that Mr. Agnew tried to
“censor a free press” and, obviously, according to
most, that is wrong.

PROFILE OF VICE PRESIDENT AGNEW
in Maryland. A substantial 75 percent of the public
simply would not make a judgement that the stories
about the Vice President allegedly receiving
kick-backs from contractors in any way “disqualifies
him for President.” Perhaps ironically, one of the
lessons the American people have apparently learned
from the Watergate affair is not to draw any hard
and fast conclusions about charges against public

figures until the full facts are in.
Each year since he took over the Vice
Presidency in 1969, the Harris Survey has asked
cross sections of the public, the last among 2,454
households in late August: “How would you rate the
job Vice President Spiro Agnew has been doing as
excellent, pretty good, only fair, or

However, as much as the Vice President might
hold out a certain amount of appeal to the public for
the seemingly refreshing candor, by 41—36 percent a
plurality viewed his assumption of the Presidency
with alarm. By a slightly larger 43-35 percent
margin, most people also denied that his training as
Vice President “qualifies him to serve as President.”
Events
might alter
this Agnew profile
drastically. But up to the time of this survey he
hardly had been mortally wounded by recent press
revelations. Mr. Agnew’s appeal was rooted in his
seeming skepticism of the press establishment,
obviously a popular strain. In return, the public
seemed to want to give him the benefit of the doubt
in the current investigation.

Committee formed to
study athletic funding
The formation of a special
committee to study the future of
athletics at the University jus
been announced by Student
Association (SA) President Jon
Dandes. Mr. Dandes appointed
Bruce Engel, Contributing Editor
of The Spectrum, chairman of the
committee and members of both
the student body and faculty have
been asked to serve on it.
The athletics problem has been
present ever since the State of
New York decided to cut off
funds to intercollegiate sports.
Therefore, the Athletic
Department of the State
University of Buffalo receives
most of its funds from the
mandatory student activity fee
from the fees the Student
Association decides to allocate a
sum for athletics each year. To
compound the problem, athletic
budgets for some sports have not
been approved until after thy end
of the season.
The chaotic atmosphere has
distressed Mr. Dandes and he vows
“not to allow the confusion to
continue.” According to Mr.
Dandes, there have been “no

goals, priorities, guidelines or
rules” set forth by the State
University of Buffalo for the
Athletic Department.

Get it together
Mr. Dandes explained that
bothJhe Student Association and
the Athletic Department must
“stop working in a vacuum.” He
also said it was absolutely

imperative that both
“understand**-and “accept” the
other’s position.
The committee report will
decide how the 'SA and Athletic
Department function .in relation
to one another. Perhaps the most
important topic to be discussed
will be the establishment of
priorities: that is, which sports
will be funded and possibly,
which are to be eliminated.
At the completion of the
investigation, the report will be
presented to Mr. Dandes and
voted upon by the Student
Assembly. Hopefully, the measure
will be passed before the first of
January. The committee’s
hearings will be open and all
students are encouraged to attend.

Tax pollution
‘The key to rational usage is to reflect the social
cost,” said Mr. Crow. This involves the cost of air
pollution, oil spills, strip mining, and the assurance
of energy for future generations, he explained.
Pollution taxes should be instituted as an incentive
to pollute less and corporations should also be
expected to pay for their damages, suggested Mr.
Crow. For example, he feels companies should pay
compensation for miners’ risks and be fined for oil
spills they create. Prices for the use of energy should
also be raised to reduce the wasting of energy and to
decrease pollution, added Mr. Crow.
Herbert Clay, President of National Fuel Gas
Company, posed the question: “Is there actually a
shortage of energy confronting our nation?” He
voiced his opinion: “Yes, there is a problem, but it
hasn’t reached the crisis level yet.” He felt the
problem was evident in many ways. For several
years, his company hasn’t been able to obtain new
gas contracts, he reported. Additionally, Mr. Clay
said there have been restrictions on the sale of gas to
the consumers resulting in the curtailment of the
hours which stations remain open. He also expressed

preventative action. Most people are unaware of the
problem since it has* only been a minor
for them, he charged.
Mr. Gerhard Neumaier, President of Ecology and
Environment Inc., addressed the topic of energy
resource and its effects on the environment. He said
Alaska has been developing its oil supply, but there
is only a one or two year supply. The coal resources
of Nevada, New Mexico, etc. are promising noted
Mr. Neumaier, but there are dangerous
environmental problems with strip mining, and
utilizing the undeveloped desert. In addition, there is
untapped lignite in Texas, and shale deposits in
Tennessee. However, he explained, if these minerals
were mined, hundreds of acres of land would be left
uninhabitable. He concluded that this country needs
a national' system of long and short term fuel
supplies. A method of conservation must also be
discovered and rising prices seem to be inevitable,
said Mr. Neumaier.
“Maybe the government hasn’t been honest with
the people in telling them that there will be a higher
cost involved,” concluded one speaker. But, he
added it is better to have a higher cost for fuel then
no fuel at all.

Government tries
to prevent shortage
In the face of a possible fuel
shortage for the upcoming winter,
the Nixon Administration has
formulated plans to deal with
possible emergencies. The plans
call for allocation and possible
rationing of heating, industrial
and transportation fuel.
The plan has not yet been
formally approved. Officials refer
to the measures as a “contingency
tough many of its
provisions have
already been
implemented.
The
White
House domestic
advisor, Melvin
Laird, stated
that the plan
might be put
into effect if
Congress is
unable
to
propose an
alternative.
The Senate
has already
passed a bill
calling for
mandatory fuel
allocation, but
the bill has been
tied up in the
House
Commerce
Committee.
Fuel
shortages are
expected to
develop during
the fall when
the demand for
oil
heating
increases. Mr.
Laird conceded
that any plan
calling for mandatory allocations
would be difficult to put into
effect, but claimed that the White
House had no alternative if
Congress failed to come up with a
solution
Fuel rationing?
The administration plan
consists of four parts. The first is

an appeal for voluntary fuel
conservation backed by higher
fuel prices. The second centers
around a shift from scarce to
more abundant fuels in certain
industries. In most instances, this
will mean using high-sulfur fuels
which are currently restricted
because of their adverse effect on
the environment. The third
proposal concerns establishment
of priorities and allocations. A
possible fourth contingency
includes fuel rationing for the
public.
Parts of the first three
proposals have already been
enacted by the Administration
They have come under heavy
criticism
from
both
environmentalist groups and
segments of the industries
affected. The fourth proposal is
likely to meet considerable
opposition from the consuming
public if it is ever seriously

The shutdown would not be

Congress of Petroleum Dealers
said that the dealers could no

Locally, Harold H. Izard,
candidate for Erie County
legislator, has urged homeowners
to conserve energy whenever
possible. He suggested reducing
the heating temperature of
buildings by two degrees and the
turning off of lights when not
necessary. Mr. Izard made the
suggestions in a letter to County

The University of California student lobby, for instance, has

influenced the allocation of over $8,000,000, including $1 million to
upgrade undergraduate teachers and courses; $2 million in state student
to replace programs cut back by President Nixon; $1.6 million in
student financial aid last year and $2.6 million for 1973-74. California
lobbyists also established the National Student Lobby to pressure
Congress for more financial aid to students.

aid

The Student Association of State University (SASU), while its
results have not been quite as spectacular, is modeled along the same
lines. The "clout" of student lobbies in 1971, which added one million
young voters to the the 18-year-old vote in 1971, which added one
million young voters to the rolls in California alone. SASU monitors all
student-related bills in Albany and pressures legislators; when a lobby's
constituency poses a voting threat, legislators tend to listen. Whether it
is our Graduate Student Association lobbying in Washington for more
research and tuition grants for grad students or consumer groups (such
as PIRG) influencing legislation in state houses, activism has a new face.
As one Californian lobbyist said of "quiet" campuses: "There are
no more protests because they are no longer effective. Listen, you just
don't get a million dollars by sitting on the Governor's front lawn.
We're just smarter now." Certainly, the students who ring doorbells for
PIRG or stuffed envelopes for George McGovern were just a minority;
but this only serves to underscore the potential of what a mass of
students working together might accomplish. So far the results have
been modest, but the possibilities are infinite.
Strangely enough, even activist students espousing national causes
are Inexplicably apathetic about issues On their own campuses. This is
ironic becaCTSe the opportunity for significant input is present, to a
much greater degree than a few years ago. The Colleges are under
attack, an attack which may prove fatal if vocal and visible student
support is not forthcoming. Open hearings are taking place about the
selective arming of Campus Security. Tenure, grievances, academic
quality there is no lack of issues. A vital referendum on the funding
of WNYPIRG and elections for SASU. and the new state-wide Student
Assembly is slated for next week, but referendums on this campus have
traditionally been marred by extremely low turnout. Trends such as
these must be reversed if students are to stop (nothing empty phrases
about involvement and actually achieve significant results. Students
have made meaningful inroads at the state and national levels. On the
campus level, however, the results have been disappointing. If we
continue to be too lazy to vote in referendums or speak out on
University issues, the Administration will just do as it pleases. If we
make noise, they will be forced to deal with us. Whether the Collages
are castrated or how Security is armed are issues that directly affect us.
The opportunity is there to be heard we need only to seize it.

Let us examine the radically different climate which prevailed
three years ago. Campuses were being shaken to their very foundations
by demonstrations both violent and non-violent. The root causes of
student discontent were the continuing American involvement in
Indochina and a feeling of being frozen out of decision-making
processes at their own schools. Many other factors were responsible as
well, but basically students were politically powerless. They resorted to
violence for the same reason that blacks did a few years earlier and
Indians did a few years later: to make the nation sit up and take notice.

It has by now become cliche to ask what has happened to the
student activism of the sixties. The answer is that it has been

Violence may be reprehensible means to achieve an

which followed the frustrated period of violence. The relatively calm
condition in the universities which followed makes it very easy to
conclude that sutdents have returned to a fifties-style passivity. Yet we
believe such a conclusion is erroneous.

PRIS

by Janis Cromer

If the only summer job you could find was chief
hamburger slinger at MacDonald’s (God forbid!), you’d
have a lot to gripe about.
You could spend, hours complaining about the
_

grease, the noise, the inconsiderate customers and the
other dissatisfied co-workers. Yet, the worst of it would
be the pay.
Workirig 40 hours a week would result in S74 (before
taxes). That’s according to the present minimum wage
standard in New York State $ 1.85 an hour. Elsewhere
in the country, you'd only make $1.60 an hour, the
federal wage level.
Now, $74 is a fairly paltry sum, especially when
compared to the size of the paycheck your friend at the
post office Is getting.TJut then again, $74 a week will buy
a substantial number of albums, some dope (if it can be
found), dnd entrance to a quantity of X-rated films (if
the theaters remain open).
So, all things considered, making Big Macs is better
than no job at all and you tell yourself: “It’s only for a
few months.”
However, if you are making $74 a week and it’s not
just a summer job and you’re expected to buy more than
music, marijuana and movies, the situation goes from
annoyed griping to desperate groping.
A family of four could just as easily spin gold out of
hay as live on a minimum wage diet of $3700 a year. Yet
millions of Americans are expected to eke out a living on
even less money. Needless to say, the rising food and rent
prices affect most those with the least.
Last week, the United States Congress was in a
position to at least slightly alleviate the problem.
Congress could have overridden President Nixon’s veto of
the new minimum wage proposal. Unfortunately, it fell23 votes short of the needed two-third majority.
If enacted, the law would have increased the federal
minimum wage from the $1.60 standard to $2.00 an hour
now and $2.20 an hour after a year. That would have
increased the income of the minimum wage worker to a
whopping $88 a week. Nowhere in this country can -a
family live adequately on $88 a week. Even with the
increase, the annual income is still below the federal
poverty level. Yet, those with the least will also be most
affected by any wage increase. An additional $14 a week
would considerably, even if not adequately, enhance a
minimum wage family budget.
President Nixon, however, chose to deny this
increase. He said the new law would have been
inflationary. (The “inflation" label is Mr. Nixon’s private
weapon against disagreeable legislation.) This law would
have raised minimum wages 38%, complains Mr. Nixon.
He fails to mention that although the last wage boost was
in 1968, the cost of living in 1968 bears little
resemblance to its 1973 counterpart.
Employers must realize that they are saving very
little by opposing a wage increase. As long as employers
refuse to share their record-breaking profits with their
—•

employees, they will continue to pay $19 billion a year in
welfare costs. And they will continue to face increasing
crime rates, a reflection of the number of people who are
driven to break the law rather than work for pittance
Equally distasteful to Mr. Nixon was the inclusion of
domestic workers in the new wage proposal. Under the

new law, domestics would have received an initial wage of
$1.80 an hour, increasing to $2.20 an hour by July I97S.
At present, the $1.60 law applies to domestics, although,
in reality, they arc paid substantially less than the
minimum wage. In 1972, the median annual income for
domestic work was only $2072.
Mr. Nixon perhaps felt, as others have argued, that
including domestics under the wage law would result in a
loss oT available jobs because many households would no
longer be able to afford domestic help. However, over
one million workers have left this sector of the labor
market in the last ten years because of the pitiful wages.
And, as the National Committee on Household
Employment, a worker’s organization trying to demand
rights collectively, has said: ‘if you can’t pay the price
for household help
a decent' minimum wage, thea;*iu
you’d better start scrubbing yotit own floors.”
The wages of the young were also a point of
contention for Mr. Nixon. He favors including a “youth
differential" in the federal wage law. This means,
employers could hire teenage workers at 80% of the
minimum wage for the first six months of employment.
Summer jobs would fall in this category and the aspiring
burger-slinger would makes less-than-minimum wage Mr.
Nixon argues this will overcome the high youth
unemployment rate which is three times the adult rate.
Who would benefit from a “youth differential?”
Surely, Mr. MacDonald, president of the quarter-pounder
business, would make a considerable savings.
MacDonald’s, a $300,000 contributor to Mr. Nixon’s
re-election campaign, employs 70% of its staff from the
“under twenty” ranks.
What would stop employers from firing youth when
their six-month period of reduced rate wages was
completed to hire new, cheaper employees? As the
vetoed bill’s sponsor, Rep. John Dent, has queried: “Isn’t
equal pay for equal work the standard of American
labor?”
A new minimum wage proposal will be passed soon,
one that is more to the President’s liking. First, domestic
workers will not be included. Second, a “youth
differential” will be included. Third, the increase will not
be as large (Ope proposal sets the initial wage at $ I 90
this year, increasing to $2.20 by July 1975.)
If you get stuck working at MacDonald’s again next
summer, you’re going to miss that extra $14. If you have
to finance a college education, you’ll miss it even more.
But its the family of four which is being strangled
between sky-rocketing prices and an outdated minimum

Bigotry revisited
To the Editor:
Student Association President Jon Dandes has
accused the Progressive Labor Party of “bigotry”
because we oppose the upcoming appearance of
racist Lester Maddox. Dandes might do well to
remember just who the bigot in this issue is. It is
Lester Maddox, who thinks that the proper way to
deal with blacks is with ax handles. It is Lester
Maddox, who instructed his police that in civil rights
“disturbances,” cops should “shoot to kill and stack
’em up like cordwood.” And now it is Jon Dandes
who comes to this racist’s defense.

Page eight. The Spectrum Wednesday, 26 September 1973

.

If Dandes were a mere marginal idiot, his
warped logic might be less of a concern; but Dandes
claims to lead the SA, He boasts that he will do
everything he can to obstruct Student Association
participation in the proposed campus-wide Teach-In
Against Racism being organized by Progressive Labor
Party and other members of the University
community. Dandes has clearly sided with the racist

forces on this campus. We feel confident, however,
that the body of the SA will vote to support the
Teach-In and repudiate Dandes racist mis-leadership.

It contains all of Senator Sam’s favorite Biblical
quotations and a guide to their most effective
use. The book is handsomely illustrated with
pictures of the creation, Moses receiving the Ten
Commandments, the Resurrection and Uncle
Sam himself. The companion volume does the
same for Shakespeare and is also abundantly
illustrated. As a special bonus, a copy of the
United States Constitution is included.
4) Autographed pictures of Howard Baker :
Need we explain?
5) The English Language Institute: ELI

language to Presidential Press Secretaries and
other bureaucrats. Now they too can learn to
speak plainly to the American people. Cut those
“inoperatives,” prune those “points in time,”

Tony’s Town: Cops-and-robbers
situation-comedy TV series starring that lovable
Watergate witness Tony Ulasewicz

himself. Those of you who watched the
Watergate hearings (and the ratings show record
TV audiences) know the irrepressible “Tony U”
is a guaranteed laugh-getter. Putting that great
comic talent in prime time will draw even bigger
audiences
a bonanza for advertisers and a pile
to be made for anyone who owns a piece of big

The show will feature the exploits and
misadventures of a New York City detective,
frolicking around the country on fantastically
funny secret missions for the mysterious “Man in
the White House.” This warm, funny, Damon

Norman Lear, producer of the smash hit All in

I read with amusement your editorial of
September 9 entitled Detente and Repression.
Through the past IS years, the U.S. has seen a
protest of disgust and condemnation of the
U.S.S.R.’s treatment of its Jewish citizens
culminating in the Jackson Amendment, the second
time this situation has occurred in American History.
The first was at the turn of the century when the
U.S. cancelled a trade agreement with the Czarist
Russian government because of the mistreatment oif
Russian Jews. Would it be reasonable to renew trade

relations with the U.S.S.R. when these same
relations were broken off because of Russia’s
mistreatment of several minorities, when even casual
observation indicates no substantial change? Surely
60 yeah is enough time in which to solve a problem
of such monumental proportions.
May I remind you that no more than two years
ago, the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. engaged in lengthy
discussions both on a formal diplomatic level and an
informal economic level, resulting in a massive
American effort that kept the Russian peasants from
starvation. During the time of deliberation, a major
topic of compromise was that of the formal political
treatment of Jews and other minorities by the 0
Communist government,
As you. m«y recall, Pravda (the official
.Comitiuqist. newspaper) maintained a consistent
stance on equality for all of Russia’s people*; Even
Premier Kosygin has good friends tint are Jewish
(see Montreal 1971). It was leaked by Western
correspondents at that time that there' was a
noticeable relaxation of visa restrictions and the like
for Jewish petitioners. Isn’t it significant to note that
immediately following the wheat subsidy agreements
of 1971 and 1972, stringent travel restrictions were
again imposed.
You say that the U.S. should give the U.S.S.R.
the trade status it requests without any attendant
conditions. If one were to look at the record
carefully, one would find that the Soviet Union is
not to be trusted in entering into any agreements
without a binding stipulation. They will not be
sensitive to what the people say once the U.S.
government says go ahead and trade without
restriction and the ink dries on the dotted line.
In conclusion, I would like to say that an
education in International Political Science might be
useful before you judge any future detentes leading

Offensive review

Solving Corporate Confusion

To the Editor:

To the Editor

I am writing this letter as an attempt to release
some of the anger which engulfed me upon reading
Norman Salant’s review of Art Garfunkel’s album in
the September 21 issue of The Spectrum. As a gay
person, I found his attitude towanis homosexuality
in the review disgusting and offensive. Why does a
man “preserve his integrity” by refusing to have sex
with another man (which is what the reviewer
unmistakably implied)? Cannot a person engage in
homosexual acts and also be a person of integrity?
Why should one be “embarrassed” to “be caught”
listening to a singer who has sexual relations with
members of his own sex (whether or not Art
Garfunkel fits this description is irrelevant here)?
Sexism and homophobia (the fear of
homosexuality in oneself and/or others) are
entrenched in our society and serve specific
functions—Perhaps Norman Salant felt more “Uke a

Ban on vitamins imposed
WASHINGTON (UP!) Beginning Monday, unless the
courts intervene
It will be illegal to buy massive doses of
vitamins A and D without a prescription.
Heavy doses of vitamins are favored by some health
food advocates, and many health food stores sell them. But
the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which is
imposing the new ban, says the large doses are “clearly
dangerous” unless taken under a doctor’s supervision.
FDA says too much vitamin D can cause retarded
mental and physical growth in children, and too much
vitamin A can lead to pressure on the brain that can mimic
the symptoms of a brain tumor.
FDA is putting even more sweeping vitamin controls
into effect at the end of the year. At least 10 lawsuits have
been filed against the latest order. One, filed by the
National Nutritional Foods Association of Whittier, Calif.,
has been heard in federal court in New York City, and a
decision may be handed down during the'week.

The present Undergraduate Student Judiciary it
a “quasi-legai” court system designed to deal with
“on-campus violations of the University Student
Rules and Regulations,” explained Dr. Stein.
In includes the five judgeships of the STudent
Judiciary to hear appeals several Appellate Tribunals
set up by the Student Judiciary to hear appeals, and
the Inter-Residence Judiciary.
The initial creation of the Student Judiciary
took place in the late 1950’s, under the authority of
the now-defunct Board of Governors. ‘Tt was a
landmark step,” said Dr. Stein, “because it provided
for trial of students by their peers” in matters
relating to the University rules and regulations.

Unlike the old &lt;hys
Since then, however, “the University has

led to the obsolescence of the current Student

size. Second, we have become a graduate school.
Thirdly, Millard Fillmore College has begun to take a
more active role in the University. And fourth, there
is a general' movement toward increased student
governance.”
The Student Judiciary was originally created to
serve the 5,000 undergraduate students of a small
private college, the University of Buffalo, in the late
1950’s. There are today 24,000 students attending

Corporate power in Chile
linked to Attended fall
Editor’s Note: The following is the first of
a two-fart commentary on the reasons for
the downfall of the Allende government in
Chile. The authors, George Robbins, Bill
Covington, Paul Richmond and Vicki
Rauch, compiled the research for Social
Science College 425. This section deals
with the relationship between American
corporations and Chile.
It

is

no

secret

that

US.

many

corporations had enourmous investments

in Chile when Salvador Allende was elected
president in 1970. One of the biggest
investments was International Telephone
and Telegraph, which is now the 8th largest
U.S. corporation with over
1300
subsidiaries.
The Senate Subcommittee on
Multinational Corporations of the Senate
Relations Committee heard
Foreign
testimony from John A. McCone this
spring; He testified that ITT has offered $ 1
million to high Nixon Administration
officials to help finance the overthrow of
the Popular Unity Government because
that government wanted to make Chile
independent of U.S. imperialism. Mr.
McCone said that when he was head of the
Central Intelliegence Agency, he had
received similar offer5 from other
corporations. Mr. McCone even said that he
thought that ITT’s proposal conformed
with U.S. government policy. These
statements are most significant and
revealing because Mr. McCone was not only
Director of the U.S. Central Intelligence
Agency, but also a director of ITT.
Corporate spokesman
Mr. McCone’s connections with the
heights of the American economic and
political structure are extensive. He was a
chairman of tfye Atomic Energy
Commission and Undersecretary of the Air

Force. McCone Enterprises have built
refineries for Standard Oil of California,
Standard Oil of New Jersey (both
Rockefeller controlled), and many other
corporations. It is clear that Mr. McCone is
a spokesman for top corporate interests.
The Central Intelligence Agency
submitted a plan to ITT in 1970 for
creating economic chaos for Chile. A letter
from ITT Vice President Edward Gerrity to
ITT President Harold Geneen said that
banks should not renew credits, that US.
companies should drag their feet in sending
money and making deliveries, and that
America should withdraw technical help.
Senate Subcommittee sources said that
they had sheafs of documents on the
ITT-CIA collaboration to create chaos.

Commentary
For a long time, the Central Intelligence
has been behind an effort to
subvert Chile’s labor unions and deter their
goal of gaining control over the means of
production. With the support of the
AFL-CIO, the U.S. monopolists founded
the American Institute for Free Labor
Development (AIFLD) in
1962. The
AIFLD helped set up a program to
indoctrinate Chilean unionists with the
idea of “responsible” unionism or bread
and butter unionism.
Chairman of the AIFLD is J. Peter
Grace of W.R. Grace and Company
(Rockefeller
controlled). Charles
Brinckerhoff, until recently president of
Anaconda, is one of the other corporate
executives on the AIFLD. Anaconda
(Rockefeller controlled) has made 80% of
its profits in Chile. George Meany is also
one of the heads of the AIFLD. In August
1969, Senator Fulbright revealed that
AIFLD funds, including those budgeted for
1970, came to $28 million.
Corporations backing AIFLD are W.R.
Agency

Grace, Rockefeller Foundation, ITT, Pan
American World Airway* (all Rockefeller
controlled); Kennecott, Standard Oil of
Jersey, Anaconda {Rockefeller
New
controlled); Crown Zellerbach, General
Foods (Rockefeller controlled); Union
Carbide,
United Fruit, Monsanto
(Rockefeller controlled); Sinclair Oil,
Cyanimid, Coming Glass (Rockefeller
controlled);and many more.
The copper companies made a profit of
26% in Chile. The original American
investment in copper mining was $3.5
million, yet millions of profits have been
taken out of Chile to the U.S.
Chilean capitalists have strong bonds
with U.S. international monopolists. Date
on SO top Chilean corporations show that
the top executives have a multitude of
direct and indirect links to foreign
corporations.
For example, Edwards
Eastmen was the president and top
stockholder of the Chilean International
Basic Economy Corporation (Rockefeller
controlled). Eastman owns 20% of a
Ralston-Purina subsidiary. Ralston-Purina
is also Rockefeller controlled. Edwards
Eastman was past president of the
Inter-American Press Association. After the
election of Allende, Edwards Eastman fled
from Chile to become a vice-president of
the Rockefeller controlled Pepsi Cola
Company.

American foreign aid went to Chile
prior to the Allende government, but was
largely cut off during the Allende reign.

The U.S. controlled Export-Import Bank
gave a loan to Chile during the Prei

Administration for expanding copper
production, but with the election of
Allende cut off loans to Chile. Washington
moved to block the Export-Import Bank
credits, by a vote of Congress in 1970, as

soon as it became clear Allende would be
confirmed as President.
The Inter-American Development Bank
has not given any large loan to Chile since
Allende became president. The U.S.
government supplies three-fourths of the
capital for the Inter-American
Development Bank and has virtual veto
power over Inter-American Development
Bank Loans. But during the Allende
Government, the UJS. gave over $12
million specifically to the Chilean military,
but not to be used as aid to thc Allende
government.
Mr. Allende made many significant
changes in Chile during his three years. In
the first nine months of his government,
Mr. Allende raised wages 60%, while
freezing most prices. The resulting rise in
purchasing power created a tremendous
rise in the demand for consumer goods and
services. The government ordered most
industries to produce at full capacity to
meet this demand. As a result, indistrual
production was 35% higher in the first five
months of 1971 than in the same period in
the previous year. The government limited
inflation. Mr. Allende nationalized many
foreign and domestic corporations. The
government purchased 19 of the country’s
26 banks. It nationalized copper, nitrates, &gt;■
coal mines, most of the textiled, iron,
autos, and telegraph companies. The
government purchased a subsidiary of
Bethlehem Steel so that the nation’s
second most valuable export was largely in
Government hands. It nationalized the U5.
controlled companies of Anaconda and
Kennecott. Copper accounts for 80% of
Chile’s export earnings. From all of this we
can see that the Rockefellers and their
allies had every reason to want Allende
overthrown.

Cross-cotintry Bulls
shut out in first meet
The cross-country Bulls were
in their first timed
meet on Saturday against Niagara,
Rochester and host, Syracuse.
They were shut out by all three
opponents. At least five runners
from each of the other three
schools finished ahead all the
Buffalo team. Syracuse won the
meet
handily, shutting out
everyone else, as the first five, and
eight of the first nine finishers
were Orangemen. Niagara beat out
U of R for second place.
Buffalo was paced by senior
Bruce Tuttle who finished 28th in
the field of 49. The Buffalo
trackmen did not run in a group
as they had done last week. After
the first mile resulted in theBulls
bringing up the rear, the
“togetherness” strategy which
coach Jim McDonough has
stressed all season was discarded,
and each runner tried to make up
the lost ground alone. Throughout
the entire race, no Bull runner
cracked the top twenty.

McDonough did not try to
make any excuses for the
disappointing showing by Buffalo,
and he has no plans to change his
workouts or strategics. He said,
“Well just keep abreast of our
workouts and tty to bring
ourselves to a peak in October and
then carry it right on through to
the state championships.
The Bulls have their next meet
tomorrow against Fredonia and
Cleveland State at Fredonia. Bob
Curtis, Bob Cohen and Paul
Carroll, three key Bull runners
who missed Saturday’s race,
should be running tomorrow. As a
result, McDonough is fairly
optimistic and he hopes to beat
Geveland State, but he isn’t
guaranteeing anything. He
observed: “It’ll be rough against

remarked Esposito. “Sure, we’ye got one or two guys
that are aggressive, but the team as a whole has got
to show more aggressiveness.”

Spectrum

Staff Writer

“They took twice as many shots as us, and they
beat us. It’s as simple as that,” assessed Buffalo
soccer coach Sal Esposito after the Bulls’ season
opener last Saturday. The Bulls dropped a 5-2
decision to the Syracuse Orangemen at Rotary Field.
“I don’t think our guys played, as a unit,”
observed Esposito. “We didn’t play. the ball like
we’re capable of doing, and we didn’t take the
opportunities offered to shoot.” The Bulls were
outshot by a 26-13 margin, and most of their shots
were right in the hands of Syracuse goalie Ken
Strauss.
Syracuse opened the scoring early in the first
half, with Wayne Tompkins scoring from directly in
front of Buffalo goalie Frank Daddarid. The
Orangemen struck again, just five minutes later, as
Jim Ryan tallied his first of three goals for the day.
Both Syracuse goals were due in part to the
Bulls’ lack of aggressiveness. “We’re lacking in the
basics, and we’re not aggressive in going to the ball,”

VETERANS
ADVISORS

Bulls break through
The Bulls finally broke into the scoring column
midway through the first half. Sophomore Jude
Ndenge fired in a free kick from directly in front of
the Syracuse goal to cut the Bulls deficit to one, but
Buffalo was to come no closer.
Syracuse entered the game with an 0-2 record.
The victory-starved Orangemen exhibited much
aggressiveness in continually beating theBulls to the
ball. “We were hungry,” said Syracuse coach John
Allen. “We lost two heartbreakers (to Ithaca and
Rochester], and the boys really wanted to win this
one.”
The Bulls hosted Canisius yesterday, hoping to
even their record at 1-1 before traveling to Ohio
University Saturday. This game will be the season
opener for the Bobcats, NCAA quarter-finalist in
1972, and the booters from Athens will be out to
defend their national ranking.

In an extremely dose match on
Saturday, the tennis Bulls were
defeated by Albany, 5 4. The
match was moved indoors to the
Four Seasons tennis courts when
skies
overcast
threatened to
postpone the contest.
The courts were rented, so
both teams had to conserve time.
The teams agreed to play one set,
eight-game
matches and to
shorten the pre-game warmups.
This created difficulties for both
sides, and the style of play had to
be changed. ‘It was only one set,”
explained Buffalo coach Norb

UGL

New library will cater solely

to needs

of undergraduates

by Donald Levine
Staff Writer

Spectrum

A brand new Undergraduate Library (UGL),
completely separated from the Lockwood system, is
scheduled to open in a few weeks. The doors were
expected to open the first day of classes, but delays
due to the late arrival of materials weren't foreseen.
The new library will occupy half of Diefendorf
Annex, which was renovated this past summer.
For the first time in the Univeristy’s history, a
separate library system will exist which caters solely
to the needs of the undergraduate. In fact, this is the
only library on campus where faculty will not have
The UGL hopes to provide a better collection of
books by monitoring the subject areas of
undergraduate courses through instuctor’s book lists
and the student demand.
Wise allocations
The limited funds available were “wisely
concentrated” in the reference area to produce a
highly workable system, stated Yorim Szekely, head
of the UGL. All 38,00 volumes except for those
books on reserve will be easily accessible and subject
to a short loan period of two weeks. Mr. Szekely
hoped that this short loan period “will increase the
contact between students and books.”
The addition of 266 seats is expected to relieve
some of the congestion noticed especially during
exam times in Lockwood library. A lounge is alos
set up and equipped with couches, club chairs, small
tables and a carpeted floor. All furniture is brand
new and “very confortable,” according to Mr.
Szekely.

ter

Last semester the Faculty Senate and University
President Robert Ketter approved the creation of the
new UGL. The faculty was uiged to donate books
and reading lists. Many books came from personal
collections. The faculty of the History Department
also made available many important undergraduate
volumes.

Unstructured borrowing
William Allen, a professor of History who has
been closely involved with the UGL, commented
enthusiastically that Mr. Szekely’s ability to work
with limited funds was the “right spirit” but that
students should “keep up pressure” for the necessary
funds. Most of the paperback books donated will
appear on what Mr. Szekcly termed ‘The Browsing
Shelf.” These books are free to be taken home and
don’t have to be checked out. Students arc urged,
however, to return some books to keep the shelf
alive.
A suggestion can be submitted. Mr. Szekely’s
reply will be posted the next day on the board.
‘This was done very successfully at UCLA,” he
reports.
Conditions are still expected to be crowded
until' the Amherst facility opens up (the
ground-breaking ceremony is scheduled for
November). The Amherst UGL is expected to
occupy two floors of the proposed library with more
than 115,000 volumes and 1300 seats. An audio
room and a records-and-tapes library are also to be
included. The Amherst library, however, won’t be
ready, for mother three years. Until then, the
Undergraduate Library in Diefendorf Annex will
have to carry the load.

‘SummerhilV showing

A new spirit of excitement has permeated the
Inter-Residence Council Businesses (IRCB) this year
in reaction to a carefully-planned, structural
reorganization. “We are here only to serve students
and now we feel that we can do a much better job,”
exclaimed Elliot Mandel, President of IRCB.
Incorporated in 1971 for legal and tax reasons,
IRCB has been continually hampered by problems.
A series of reforms have been implemented this year
which will hopefully eliminate a substantial portion
of their difficulties. The position of IRCB director,
formally held by one person, will now be handled by
four.
Mr. Mandel will set policy, which will be carried
out by Comptroller Neil Raynor, who is in charge of
all fiscal matters; Grocery Division Manager Geoff
Levin, who is responsible for the grocery stores; and
Auxilary Service Manager Fred Spivak, who handles
bicycle rentals,, vacation air flights and refrigerator

rentals for IRC members began this past Wednesday
in Clement Hall. Rentals will soon be available on
the North Campus as well. During the hours of 12 to
8 p.m. on Monday through Friday and 9 a.m. to 8
p.m. on Saturday and Sunday, a total of 20 bikes
will be rented at a rate of $.60 for the first hour and
$.15 for each additional IS minutes. Even though
reaction to this service has been excellent, IRCB
plans to review the operation during the winter to
determine if any changes can be made to improve it.

rentals.

New unity
Mr. Mandel feels that as a result of this new
organization, IRCB is experiencing a unity that was
never present before. Rather than having different
managers doing as they please, everyone will now be
responsible for carrying out set policy. Now, claims
Mr. Mandel, “IRCB will be able to handle changes in
administrations more easily and therefore add the
badly needed continuity from year to year.”
Mr. Mandel added that in the past, IRCB was a
“victim of lack of planning.” This has slowed the
opening of the new Grub and bike rentals in
Amherst as well as the establishment of a new IRC
office which opened only this past Wednesday in
Goodyear Hall. He hopes to fully plan future
projects well in advance of their opening dates.
As a result of the new organization, Mr. Levin
feels he is now free to concentrate his efforts on
improving service in the grocery stores. He has
moved to place tighter controls over the money in
the stores through the acquisition of a new cash
register. Additionally, he has expanded the inventory
and changed suppliers in order to keep prices as low
as possible.

�Council of Student Presidents
creation proposed by Dandes
To insure fuller cooperation among student
governments, SA President Jon Dandes last week
called for the creation of a Council of Student
Presidents. The idea, said Mr. Dandes, came to him
at last Thursday’s Sub-Board I meeting when he
realized “how ridiculous it was that student
governments were not interacting.”
‘The communication and cooperation which
could be derived from such a venture is infinite,”
said Mr. Dandes in a memo to Monte Janson,
President of the Graduate Student Association. He
pointed out that student governments “at some time
or another deal with similar problems,” noting that
student leaders as a body “could legally, if not
practically, speak for all students."
Mr. Dandes noted that reaction to the Council
has been favorable although the idea has never been
tried. Jeff Samek, SA Director of Public
Information, praised the concept as “an attempt to
deal collectively with problems previously met by
each President on an individual basis.”

With a veteran population of

Although the Univesrity has no
open admissions policy for vets, it
does have a preference system
whereby veterans are given a small
break on average for admission.

When asked what their major
problem was, Mr. Dye replied:
“Most vets, if they do suffer any
social problems, suffer from
P.VJJ.: post-Vietnam syndrome.”
Mr. Dye went on to explain the
“syndrome” as the situation the
vet encounters when he reurns
-home, where he is condemned by
half the people for going to
Vietnam in the first place and by
the other half for not winning the
war. Mr. Dye noted, however, that
he detected a less violent social
posture among returning vets than
in the past.

grant will fund the following

the method of teaching used
would be tutorial), largest
universities in the nation to

Mr. Dye stressed the
importance of re-exposure to
education when he said: “This
program will give the veterans a
taste of college, and a notion of
how to study.” Moreover, Mr.
Dye spoke of a job reference
service for vets that will enable
them to seek out jobs consistent
with their experience.
Mr. Dye said he was “excited”
the grant and the
opportunities it offered and stated
that the Univesrity would now
have the finest veteran program in
the nation. He added that any vet
with a question or problem should
contact him in his office in 201

�Seneca Indians secede
from the United States
Indians at the
Cattaraugus Indian Reservation in
Erie. County have declared
themselves to be a sovereign state,
independent of federal and New
York State law.
Meredith M. Quinn,
self-proclaimed spokesman and
legal advisor to the Seneca Nation,
released a statement entitled. The
Declaration of the Seneca Indian
People. In this statement he listed
the various grievances of the
Seneca, and explained the legal
basis for his decision. Mr. Quinn
dted Public Law 88-533, which
Congress passed in
1964 in
support of his action. The law was
aimed at bringing an end to
“federal supervision over the
property and affairs of the Indian
nations and its members," he said.
According to Mr. Quinn, the
law said the Indians would not be
eligible for U.S. citizenship until
they had completed 40 years of
tribal abandonment. He also said
the law permits the Indians to
take legal action to declare
themselves free of government
control. Mr. Quinn said he took it
upon himself to exercise this
prerogative when he issued the
Declaration.
Seneca

First attempt
The attempt by the Seneca to
have themselves recognized as a
sovereign, state is the first such
move to be taken by any of the
nation’s Indians. There is no legal
precedent for such an action and
it is unclear how the courts will
react to such a move.
Mr. Quinn referred to himself
as the “De Facto Legal Advisor”
the Seneca jpeople,.However,
Dot all of the 4600.1nd»nS at the
Qatarrau gus Reservation
supported his moves. In fact, the
legal governing bbdy of the
Reservation, the Tribal Council,
has recognized neither Mr. Quinn
nor his Declaration.
Winifred Kettle, Council clerk,
claimed that Mr. Quinn had not
been retained by the Council in
any capacity and that he
represented a faction of only 48
Indians.
The Council spoke for many of
the older members of the
community when it voiced fears
that the peaceful atmosphere of
the reservation might erupt into
violence as was the .case at
Wounded Knee, South Dakota. A
9&gt;ecial meeting was called for last
friday to allow the many
differences of opinion to be
expressed. Council President Dean
V. Williams stated: “Not a single
Counselor was in sympathy with
Mr. Quinn’s group.”

Several

of the residents at
Catarraugus have accused him of
trying to stir up trouble with false
threats of loss of tribal land to
local townships. Community and
Reservation leaders are
determined to prevent any violent
outbreaks.
No roadblocks have been set
up around the Reservation, and as
of now, there are no plans for
taking defensive measures. Mr.
Quinn indicated that the Indian
lands would be defended if any
attempt was made to occupy
m.

Agnew resignation?

(office.

STUDENT
ASSEMBL Y
MEETING

Indictments uncertain
The increased speculation intensified when the
Washington Post quoted a senior Republican figure
as saying he was “99)4 per cent certain” that Mr.
Agnew would resign, probably within a week. The
man said he spent four hours with the Vice President
last week trying to talk him out of his decision. Mr.
Agnew, who is under investigation for alleged
bribery, extortion and tax law violations, refused
comment on the Post story.
Attorney General Elliot Richardson has sent the
evidence in the Vice President’s case to a Baltimore
grand jury, which must decide whether to issue any
indictments. Mr. Richardson must ultimately
approve a decision to issue any indictments, and
must further grapple with the issue of whether a
sitting Vice President can be indicted without first
being impeached.
Mr. Agnew’s supporters believe that the White
House, with President Nixon’s concurrence, is
actively campaigning to force the Vice President’s
resignation. ‘They’re out to get the Vice President,”
said one Agnew supporter who believes the Post
story was “inspired” by the White House. Mr. Nxon
has been guarded in his support of Mr. Agnew,
claiming “complete confidence”; in him during the
time he has been Vice President. The investigation,
however, centers on Mr. Agnew’s years in Maryland
politics prior to the 1968 election.

Non-presidential person
If Mr. Nixon should be required to select a new
Vice President, said Robert Strauss, chairman of the
Democratic National Committee, he should avoid a
“tricky, treacherous situation’’ by choosing a
“non-presidential” person. Democratic leaders have
acknowledged that there is no legal method by

successors should Vice President Agnew resign.
White House spokesman Gerald Warren has
repeatedly denied the existence of any such list.

List of names
Names most frequently mentioned as possible
successors have included former Texas Governor
John Connally, Gov. Nelson Rockefeller of New
York, Gov. Ronald Reagan of California, Presidential
advisor Melvin Laird, Attorney General Elliot
Richardson, Sen. Barry Goldwater of Arizona and
Sen. Hugh Scott of Pennsylvania. Of this group,
candidates like Senators Goldwater and Scott would
probably have a relatively easy time with Congress
since they are not prospective candidates for 1976,
while someone like Mr. Connally, whose name is
made no secret of his
frequently invoked,
political aspirations.
There is one more factor in the speculation.
Although most political observers have come to
regard President Nixon’s impeachment as politically
unlikely. Congress might stir in that direction if Mr.
Nixon were to refuse to obey a Supreme Court order
to turn over the Watergate tapes. Senators Edward
Kennedy and George McGovern, among others, have
said Congress would have “no choice” except to
initiate impeachment proceedings if Mr. Nixon were
to defy tlie High Court.
Should this come to pass, a new vice president
who was publicly regarded as Presidential material
might make the process more politically feasible,
while a weaker candidate would likely strengthen
Mr. Nixon’s position. This is all speculation at this
point, of course, and everything hinges on whether
Mr. Agnew actually resigns or not. Most White House
insiders feel he would resign if indicted, but would
attempt to fight it out if he can avoid an indictment.
The investigating Baltimore grand jury is expected to
begin hearing evidence in the Agnew case this week
or next.

�Admission policy

How this years freshmen got
accepted to this University
The acceptance procedure for the incoming
freshman class at this University is quite an involved
process.
Eleven thousand applications for freshman
admission were received by the Office of Admissions
and Records this year. Of these, 57% were eventually
accepted.
The selection is made through a three-step
process:
First, all the applicants are rank-ordered by their
percentage rank in their graduating class. Applicants
from the eight western-most counties in the state
had to be in the top 10% of their graduating class to
be accepted, while applicants from outside this area
had to be in the top 7% to gain acceptance in this
step.
Forty-five per cent of the freshman class was
admitted due to their rank on the “Step One” chart.

Regents important
In the second step, the remaining applicants
were ranked by a composite of their academic
average and scores on uniform tests. The Regents
Scholarship Examination is most commonly used.
Approximately 50% of the new freshman class was
accepted due to a high composite rating on this
chart.
In the last possible way to be accepted, the

remaining applicants were arranged by absolute
numerical rank in their respective classes. This was
done to allow students from small schools an
opportunity to gain admittance. The last 5% of the
freshman class were accepted due to a high position
on this chart.

Editor’s note: This is the Step Two acceptance table for this year’s
freshman class. Students who were not accepted on the basis of
their percentile rank in their class are next evaluated in this table
through a composite of their high school average and Regents
Scholarship Exam Score.

Western New York applicants encounter slightly
less stringent acceptance standards than other
applicants. Myron A. Thompson, coordinator of
Transfer Student Admissions, said the Admissions
Office tries to “realize a committment to the
Western New York area.” Half the freshman class is
from the eight western-most counties in the state.

Race and religion are not factors in the
admissions program, according to Dr. Thompson.
Teachers’ recommendations are “generally” not used
in the acceptance process and athletic ability is only
rarely a factor, he said, tries to “realize a
commitment to the Wastern New York area.”

90.5

Admissions policy originates in the
Faculty-Senate Admissions Committee. The
committee, headed by Edward J. Hovorka, is about
to start deliberating about next year’s admissions
policy. Next year’s policy will be affected by the
opening of 3200 additional beds in the complex on
the North Campus. Dr. Hovorka could not be
reached for comment on the impact of this extra
dorm space.

Representative Wilbur Milts cannot see expanding
commercial markets in Russia "if the price to be
paid is the martyrdom of men of genius like
Solzhenitsyn and Sakharov."
In the next couple of weeks. Congress will
consider a vital trade bill regarding the granting of
"most-favored-nation" status, or the lowest
available tariff rates, to the Soviet Union. There is
significant sentiment in Congress, led by Sen.
Jackson, to link the trade agreements with Russia
to freedom of travel, i.e., the unrestricted right of
Jews and others to emigrate freely from Russia.
Secretary of State Henry Kissinger has argued for
unhampered normalization of trade, contending
that linkage of trade to emigration could create
problems in the Kremlin and might lead to
worsened conditions for Jews.
While admitting great concern over the current
Soviet repression during questioning by the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee, Or. Kissinger has
argued against direct governmental interference in
Soviet affairs: ‘There is a limit on how much we
can influence the domestic structure of other
nations." On the other hand, critics contend,
outside pressures would probably strengthen our
bargaining hand and the Soviet Union's willingness
to compromise.
The basic philosophical question, then, is this:
Should the United States press for internal Soviet
reforms by linking trade and technology
agreements to a freer flow of people and ideas? Or
should the U.S. avoid interference in Soviet affairs
and hope that a successful relaxation of

international tensions will improve the lot of
Soviet citizens in the long run?
Let us examine this from a different
perspective. Suppose the Soviet Union were to
refuse to continue arms negotiations in the SALT
talks until America ended racial discrimination by
completing desegregation of its school system? Our
reaction would certainly be one of outrage at such
an attempt to meddle in our internal affairs.
Additionally, how can the U5. adopt a morally
righteous stance regarding internal reforms in the
U.S.S.R. when we continue to support reactionary
and repressive military regimes all around the
world, notably in South Vietnam and Greece?
What about repression right here at home?
It would be totally wrong for the Congress to
adopt such a self-righteous stance regarding

you,” is a hypocrisy of the first order as is obvious
,

Since President Nixon went to Moscow in
1972, relations with the Soviet Union have moved
out of the Cold War into an era called detente.
Based on relaxation of international tensions,
pledges to avoid nuclear war, and negotiations on
nuclear arms limitation, trade and technology, and
troop strength in Europe, the new era has been
widely hailed as a major step toward peaceful
coexistence. But the recent crackdown on
dissidents in the Soviet Union has threatened to
sidetrack detente and has caused many Americans
to wonder whether our desire for peace has
rendered us morally blind.
Recent months have seen a dramatic rise in
Soviet repression, beginning with a mock trial in
which two dissidents were forced to recant in
public, most recently through an intense campaign
in the controlled Soviet press against its two most
prominent dissenters: nuclear physicist Andrei D.
Sakharov and novelist Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn. It
was Mr. Sakharov who warned Western newsmen
last month that detente wholly on Moscow's terms
would provide the U.S.S.R. with much-needed
Western technology and trade, while allowing them
to further suppress human rights and become
"armed to the teeth" behind a veil of domestic
secrecy.
Throughout the recent repression, not a single
word has been uttered by President Nixon, a man
who rose to political power on a hard-line
anti-Communist platform. It is sickeningly clear
that Mr. Nixon's silence is repayment for Moscow's
low-key treatment of Watergate. The
Administration's policy: tolerate anything inside
Soviet borders in return for friendly U.S.-Soviet
relations. Besides the moral abhorrence of this
stance, we may find that technological and trade
benefits for Moscow without the freer flow of
people and ideas which the West is seeking may
indeed yield an illusory detente.
Fortunately, the Administration's silence is
not all-pervading. The President of the National
Academy of Sciences has warned Moscow that
continued harassment of physicist Sakharov might

�Should Maddox speak here ?
To the Editor:

To the Editor:

A recent letter from the Progressive Labor Party
urged the cancellation of the speaking engagement of
Lester B. Maddox, former governor of Georgia. In
typically totalitarian fashion, the composer of this
example of one-sided leftist polemical crap attacked
the former Governor on the basis of his civil rights

The letter by the Progressive Labor Party, appearing
in Monday’s The Spectrum, is a sordid attempt to
manipulate the free speech petition of the First
Amendment. With respect to free speech, the call to
cancel the Governor Maddox talk is ridiculous.
Regardless of his political or social opinions, the
Governor has the same right to speak at UB that
anyone who wants to speak here, has. In fact his
views are the reason why he was invited part of an
attempt to present a differing opinion from what is
generally espoused at UB.
The suggestion that Maddox be given “the
reception he deserves” and that “Death is too good
for him” is dangerous and foolhardy and equally
amends the peaceful assembly line of the First
Amendment. It is irresponsible to the extent that it
is more pervented than anything Governor Maddox
could possibly say.
In closing, the question of whether anyone
agrees with him is of no importance whatsoever
what is important is that he be allowed to speak.

record.
It is always amusing, nothing more, to observe
the blatant hypbcricy that constitutes the rhetoric of
leftist ideologies. While pretending to be spokesmen
for causes which they lable the perpetual delemna of
the “oppressed minorities,” these bleeding-heart
totalitarians find it necessary to deprive thenopposition of constitutional guarantees. It’s a simple
case of paranoia and insecurity brought on by the
realization that their cause cannot survive without
emotional propaganda and will not survive as long as
people have a choice.
Maddox’s “guilt” is that he seems to have the
mistaken idea that an individual has the
constitutional guarantee that he may protect his
personal financial investment in business by catering
to those whom he feels are inclined to be beneficial
to his interests and whom he feels are representative
of a clientel with which he chooses to do business.
After all, it’s only his money, sweat and property.
The ex-Govemor is “mistaken” in that the Supreme
Court of 1964 ignored Constitutional intent and
ruled in favor of liberal lobbies which represented
only select civil interests.
As you “organize” to give Maddox the reception
which you will you do so with consideration of the
rights of those who choose to hear him? I doubt it;
you can’t afford to; too many might listen. You will,
instead, continue to use those very tactics which you
constantly oppose and label “Fascist.”

To the Editor.
Monday’s editorial page (Spet. 17) saw a letter
printed by the Buffalo chapter of the Progressive
Labor Party demanding that Gov. Lester Maddox be
denied his right to speak at UB on Nov.' 1st. The
same week saw a letter in the opposite (?) extreme in
Friday’s The Spectrum by a Mr. Joe McDougal
condeming the PLP as degenerates, lowlifes, etc.
I, for one, am not satisfied with either view, and
neither, I think, are the majority of students on this

campus.
Editor’s note: The following is a letter sent to Sylvia
Dick in response to their request that SA sponsor
an October 24th teachin against racism.

1 will refer you

to page eight

of The Spectrum
of Monday, September 17, 1973, and to the letter
signed by the Progressive Labor Party entitled
“Cancel Maddox.”
1 shall not Sign any requisition for funds
regarding any teach-in, conference or meeting in
co-sponorship with the Progressive Labor Party.
Further, while the Executive Committee may do
as it wishes, 1 will strongly suggest, and will so
instruct Mr. Williams that Student Association shall
not become party to the bigotry, prejudice and
nearsightedness of the Progressive Labor Party.

President,

Socialism

or

Concerning Lester Maddox: Being human, let
alone black, he’s not on my hit parade, wither, but
don’t you think it would be easier to let the man
speak and see if he’s crazy enough to bring out any
racism in the open; that students would see what the
man is? Wouldn’t that help your cause of freedom
better than constantly resorting to the fascism that
you accuse your opponents of?
Which brings me to Mr. McDougal. Mister: Yob
gotta be kidding!!!! Look, isn’t it bad anough to
have one group reacting as poor man’s Mussolinis?
Do you have to come across as such too?
To all sides: Don’t you know by now, the fate
of those who believe that their way is the only way,
and all others are inferior, perverted? That way lies
madness, and if you don’t believe me, observe some
of the high powers going mad even today.

fascism

To the Editor.
The Spectrum of Friday, September 14, 1973,
published a picture of two members of the
Revolutionary Youth Movement (an organization
established by the National Caucus of Labor
Committees) holding a banner; “Liebowitz for
Mayor, Valenti for Councilman, Buffalo Labor
C’ttee.” At the left in the picture, taken at a U.S.
Labor Party rally at the back of Norton Union,
stands Phil Valenti, speaking into a bullhorn
microphone.
The Spectrum staff knows that the L.C. is the
leading socialist organization in the U.S., fighting
capitalist plans for a “planned depression”
the
recycling of human beings. We are campaigning in 9
electoral races around a program of expanded
reproduction
productive jobs for all made possible
through taxing away capitalist incomes in the form
of mortgages, debts, rents, wasteful production and
speculation. Our organization is building the muscle
for this job, to be accomplished in S years, by
uniting unemployed, ghetto youth, welfare victims,
organized and unorganized workers into a single
fighting force with the competence to run the
■*
economy.
-

-

However, the spectre of a Paul Kurtz, U.C.RA.
member and leading academic henchman of UB,
looms too large for The Spectrum staff to report the
L.C. rally “objectively.” They write a muddled,
illiterate caption to the aforementioned picture, an
obvious attempt at slander and distortion of the
organizing activity taking place on this campus and
in the city. Their hysteria and incoherence is the
characteristic disease of liberals in a crisis period; it is
further evidenced in The Spectrum by the printing
of malicious, racist letters submitted by local
fascists. Jon Dandes, who receives his orders from
the Inhumanist philosophy professor, gives the staff
its cues.
The L.C. gives the liberals this choice; they may
continue to ally with growing fascist movements in
this period, in which case they will be destroyed. Or
they can join or aid the growing socialist movement,
now more empowered than ever to turn around the
depression and consequent destruction of humanity.
At this moment The Spectrum has chosen the
former, and is running behind even the New York
Daily News and th e Newark Star Ledger in reportage
of socialist activity.

Clock-watchers
To the Editor:
What’s the matter with the Bookstore check
cashing “service”? Supposedly it closes at 4:30.
Fine, if they held to that I wouldn’t have any
complaints. But I went up there the other day .to
cash a check at, by the Bookstore’s own clock,

4:30:30, 30 seconds past the deadline.
When 1 ran up there I saw someone filling out a
check. My own check was already fully made out
and I would have been through,in no time at all. 1
was told to go away, but the other person would
have her check cashed. Why was therule broken for
one person and not the other? As anyone with any
sense knows, there’s always a rush of business in the
period just before and just after a deadline. Even so
fascistic an organization as the Department of Motor
Vehicles will not cause any trouble if you renew
your licesne a day late. And could The Spectrum
come out if you refused any stories that did not
come in by deadline?
On account of the dock-watching attitude in
check cashing I couldn’t but groceries than night
(with nothing in the house but a can of green beans
and half a kosher salami), couldn’t go to the movies
and had to pass up a quarter-ounce of hash. This is
New York State and no one will hold anything
anymore. Thank you for your time.

To the Editor.

I have received a copy of the September 10th
issue of The Spectrum and want to thank you and
compliment your interest and your efforts in writing
the story of our brewery.
Your story is very encouraging to us. If people

quality products they produce, it will serve a great
purpose for the well being of our country.

The golfBulls are victorious
despite playing poor match
by Steve Lusdg
Spectrum Staff Writer

Newcomer Jim Fleischauer secured the golf Bulb
fourth straight victory of the season by sinking a five
foot putt on the 18th green at the Audubon Golf
Course on Wednesday afternoon. By equaling par on
the 349 yard hole, Fleischauer enabled Buffalo to
defeat Canisius by a score of 470-471. Buffalo State
and Syracuse trailed with rounds of 482 and 490
respectively.
Fleischauer said: “Yes, I was aware that I had to
sink the final shot” td protect the victory.
Fleischauer, who indicated that he was very nervous,
placed his third shot about S feet from the hole and
tapped it in for the victory.
The Bulls played their poorest match of the
season. Jim Gallery, the Buffalo’s top performer.

shot a three-over-par 73. This included a double
bogey 6 on the eighteenth at Audubon.
v Bulls coach Bill Dando was very disappointed by
the Bulls play pn Wednesday. “You can’t expect to
win tournaments shooting the way we did today,”
the Bull mentor observed. However, ‘The Bulls
always go down to-a tournament hoping to win,”
Dando added. Dando would not comment on the
Bulls chances at the Tri-state Tournament in Erie,

Buffalo State coach Don O’Brien noted that the

every opponent he has faced this
year. After crushing his opponent
6-4, 6-0, he said; ‘This is the
best tennis I ever played in
college.” Boardman also indicated
he had his racket restrung, aiding
his victory.
The Bulls dropped all three
doubles matches. After Mr.
Boardman and Jeff Sepp were
beaten in doubles play, Boardman
remarked: “We just weren’t
psyched up enough. It’s a
different feeling when you go in

impossible to win the match.)

The tennis Bulls were beaten
badly (8—1) by Rochester on
Wednesday. The Bulls went into
the match as the underdogs due to
the fact Rochester perennially
boasts a formidable squad. The
loss was the first in three decisions

for Buffalo.
Rochester’s lineup included
three freshmen and two

sophomores, but their relative
inexperience did not seem to
hamper them. The Yellow
Jackets’ top player, Bobby
Fecora, defeated the Bulls’ Paul
Parelli, 7-6, 6-4, in one of the
few close matches of the
afternoon. Pecora boasts an
extremely strong serve, as well as
a variety of shots.
Buffalo coach Norb Baschnagel
commented: ‘This kid (Pecora)
can be beat if Parelli strokes
well.” Later Baschnagel observed,
‘I’m gaining respect for him
(Pecora) as I watch him more. He
has all the shots.” Both players
recorded an unusual number of
aces, and there were very few long
volleys. Buffalo’s lone victory
belonged to junior A1 Board man.
Boardman has easily defeated

think they handled it in a slipshod
manner.”
‘Voluntary’ leave claimed
Dr. Fritz indicated he believed
that Mr. Simon had left
volunatrily. ‘That was my
impression,” stated Dr. Fritz. “His
intention for a long time had been
to obtain a doctorate in Health
Education. I think this was career
rcfoftus on his part. His
appointment in a non-tenured
position had gone on for quite a
length of time,” Dr. Fritz added.
Simon maintained that the
nature of his appointment had
been changed: ‘They were able to
give me a terminal appointment
by changing my status from
assistant professor to visiting
assistant professor. This is one of
the things that I am objecting to.”
Mr. Simon indicated that he had
begun a grievance proceeding
against the state when he first
learned he had been denied
tenure. T am being represented

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

State University of New York at Buffalo

Friday. 21 September 1973

druglaw cause of
scarcity of campus supply
New

Editor’s note: This is the second part of a two-part
series on the new drug law. This part deals with the
law's impact on this campus.

by Marc Jacobson
City Editor

Students at the State University of Buffalo have
been directly affected by the enactment of New
York’s new drug law. Quipped one frequent user:
“Yeah, I’ve been affected; I can’t cop.”
University students are experiencing problems
similar to those of students at other campuses and
non-student drug users. Many campus dealers have
gone out of business as a result of the state’s new
llaw. The New York Times reported. Apparently,
caution is the watchword of the September drug
user.
Unlike this University, administrators at
Columbia, Cornell, State University at Stony Brook
and Syracuse have attempted to educate students
about the new law, through advertising, poster
displays and the formation of discussion groups. The
New York State Drug Abuse Control Commission
has also undertaken an educational program which
emphasizes the treatment aspects of the jiew law.
Anyone seeking treatment should call toll-free

BOO-522-2193.

Habits changing?

■-

A sampling of the students in Norton Union’s
Haas Lounge revealed that none were really affected
by the new law, although all felt it was too severe.
However, it is known that some students on this
campus have changed their habits regarding the illicit
use of drugs. Although supplies are scarce and
penalties are harsher, students are still seeking to
purchase drugs.
The American Civil liberties Union feels the
new law is reactionary. ‘It is a solution for people
who have given up on solutions,” a spokesman said.
“It is throwing a whole section of society into jail.”
If the law were enforced to the letter, the
spokesman explained, the courts would be flooded.
»

The fact that there is little traffic on the street is
merely a short-term effect of the law, he said,
adding: “From a human point of view, the law won’t
work.”
Campus Security at this University has not
changed their policy because of the new law. They
will continue to make arrests, but primarily for
blatant offenses; marijuana is considered a low
priority. Investigator Gerald Denny stated the
Campus Security force attended a seminar on the
new law Thursday, similar to the Police
Department’s seminar.
’Wait and see’
Mr. Denny informed The Spectrum that the
Security will continue to maintain close contact with
Sunshine House, the University’s drug-related crisis
center. Mr. Denny also feels that Campus Security
will adopt a wait-and-see attitude about the new
drug law
'■ v The student Legal Aid Clinic in Norton
Union has prepared a fact sheet about the new law,
listing offenses and ranges of punishment for those
convicted of drug offenses. Richard Tobe, who
prepared the sheet, called the enactment of the law
there’s a lot of garbage in there.”
“a slipshod job

Legislature inadvertently legalized hashish. However,
following the discovery, the law was amended so
that hashish would be illegal. Mr. Tobe feels the law

A critical point about the new drug law,
Turning to extra-legal activity, Mr. Tube feels
apparently widely misunderstood, is that the chances the amount of bribery will increase between police

WNYPIRG

Ross considers financing
There may be altenative ways
New York
Public Interest Group
(WNYPIRG) if students reject a
$3 increase in the mandatory fee
in the upcoming referendum.
This view was advanced by
Donald Ross, director of the New
York State PIRG and a former
Nader Raider, during his visit to
this campus Wednesday.
Surprisingly aware of the
confusion and politics
surrounding the funding of
WNYPIRG here, Mr. Ross offered
some possible solutions to
WNYPRIG’s funding difficulties.
The best .solution, he said, would
be to have a space on the tuition
bill mailed to all students reserved
for the three dollars. Students
could check it off if they didn’t
want to pay the extra money for
WNYPIRG, thus relieving them of

��23 votes needed

Congress falls short of veto
override on minimum wage
by Michael O’Neal
Staff Writer

Spectrum

Congress has faded to override President Nixon’s
veto of the minimum wage bdl, which would have
raised the hourly standard for most workers to $2.20
by next July 1.
The vote in the House of Representatives
Wednesday was 459 to 164 in favor of overriding the
Presidential veto
23 votes short of the required
—

two-thirds. Despite strong lobbying by organized
labor to reduce Republican opposition to the bill,
Wednesday was the sixth consecutive time this year
that Congress has failed to override a Nixon veto.
The White House said President Nixon was
gratified by the House action and called upon
Congress to draft a new, more moderate, minimum
wage bill. Prospects for Congressional action on such
a bill this year are considered in doubt.
Prior to this action, Buffalo Mayor Stanley
Makowski came out strongly in favor of the
Minimum Wage Bill.
In an unsuccessful effort to muster support for
the bill, Mayor Makowski sent a carefully-worded
letter to U.S. Senators James Buckley and Jacob
Javits and local Congressmen Thaddeus Dulski, Jack
Kemp and Henry P. Smith.
The Mayor’s letter cited many of the more
salient features of the bill and pointed out the urgent
need for reform in the minimum wage standard. He
stated that the last federal wage was enacted in 1967
and set the minimum at $1.60. “Since that time,” he
continued, “the cost of living has skyrocketed by
30%. An increase now to $2.00 an hour, and to
$2.20 next year, would not even keep most low-paid
workers abreast of increases in the cost of living.”
Mixed reaction
Mayor Makowski referred repeatedly to the
plight of Buffalo’s lowest-paid workers. He noted
that those workers earning the minimum wage “earn
only $74 for a forty-hour week, or $3700 per year
for a fifty-week year, an income below the official
poverty level.”
Reaction to the Mayor’s letter was mixed

University of New York at

Congressman Thaddeus Dulski supported Mr.
Makowski’s contention that an immediate increase in
the minimum wage is necessary and indicated that he
would vote to override the veto.
Senator Jacob Javits voted in favor of the bill
the first time, but his office was unwilling to make
any statements concerning how the Senator would
vote on the override. Representatives Kemp and
Smith were opposed to the present bill but favored
an earlier draft known as the Earlin-Vorn Substitute.
Smith releases statement
Congressman Smith released a statement
announcing his intent to sustain the veto and
outlining the various drawbacks of the bill. If
enacted, the bill would have brought about an
immediate increase of 37V4% in the minimum wage.
Mr. Smith said he agreed with President Nixon’s
contention that the bill would be inflationary. He
went on to say that the effects would be widespread,
“since the entire wage structure in many industries is
tied to the minimum rate and would have to be
adjusted by an equal magnitude.”
The tarlin-Vorn Substitute was part of the
original draft but was dropped last spring before
coming to a vote in the Congress. The substitute was
more specific in many areas than the current bill. It
provided for lower wage rates for teenagers and
full-time students, set up a separate category for
domestic help, and excluded state and municipal
employees from the minimum wage provisions.
How much coverage?
Supporters of the subtitute bill point out that
extending minimum wage coverage to domestic help
would have resulted in a drastic reduction in the job
market for that group. It is their belief that many of
those who employ domestic help now would release
them rather than pay the higher salary.
There will be a new minimum wage bill passed
in the near future. Debate centers around just how
far the bill will go and how far its coverage should
extend. In the meantime, the 1967 standard of
$1.60 an hour continues to apply.

‘Vital’ changes allow

people’s needs had to be satisfied.

Campus Editor

The first action he took was to
hire a secretary for the treasurer’s
office who would become familiar
with the books and be able to
show each succeeding treasurer
how they work. As Mr. Goldstein
stated; “If there’s change, the

Association
(SA)

Treasurer
successfully erased a $70,000
budget deficit inherited from the
previous SA administration.
Acting upon recommendations
by Sub-Board’s Business Manager
Lester
Goldstein, Mr. Linker
instituted a number of “vital”
procedural changes to establish
tight fiscal
controls over his
office.
According to Mr, Linker, there
was no semblance of order in the
treasurer’soffice when the present
SA executives took over last
March. “Nobody knew what was
owed or what was coming in,” Mr.
Linker said. He feels the confusion
was the result of mismanagement
of budget allocations by former
SA Treasurer Jeff Osinski.
Explaining that most dubs had
no budgets with which to operate
last September, Mr. Unker said
dub directors proceeded to make
arrangements and place orders
with businesses, assuming they
would be reimbursed by the SA.
“When

and January, in many cases clubs

spent," he noted.
Mr,
Additionally,
Unker
pointed out that the Assembly
continued to pass budgets despite
the fact they were told there
wasn’t enough money to cover
them. When the bills were sent to
SA, it had no choice but to pay
the businesses, although
this
resulted in a $70,000 deficit.

Reserve account
Fortunately at the time, SA
had approximately $70,000 in a
reserve savings account which was
depleted to cover the cost of the

deficit. However. Mr. Unker said
the SA is now in a dangerous
situation
without a savings
account to back it up.
To prevent any recurrences of
last year's disorganization. Mr.
linker's primary concern when
elected was to pass all budgets
before the beginning of this
semester. The Student Assembly
accomplished this on May 16.
Id73 when they approved all
budgets
except the Athletic.
Sub-Board ■ and Black Student
Union budgets which, as Mr.
Unker indicated, all have ceilings.
He also attempted to set up
stringent guidelines for all SA
spending, keeping in mind that

change will be orderly.”
In addition, Mr. Linker sent
letters to all businesses the SA had
dealt with in the past, informing
them that they should only accept
purchase
orders
which were
co-signed by SA President Jon
Dandes, an official in the Banking
Office, an administrator, and Mr.

himself.

According to Mr. Unker, the
procedure for obtaining purchase

SA knows exactly how much the

Previously, the Banking Office
handled the SA books and once a
month sent a “trial balance” to
the treasurer. However, the
balance sheets were inaccurate on

Recommending the SA not

that money be set aside for
accumulating a reserve. Mr. Unker
said: “Without a savings account,
the SA is in a very precarious

situation because if a deficit ever

Health school controversy
by Ed Ciancone
Spectrum Staff Writer

supported to insure mutual respect and cooperation
between the President and the Faculty-Senate. The
resolution was adopted.

An action by University President Robert Ketter
to establish a new School of Health Education

without consulting the Faculty-Senate has created a
controversy in that body. In a meeting Tuesday, two
resolutions were proposed and passed to avoid such
actions by Dr. Ketter in the future.
Dr. Ketter gave a lengthy explanation of his
actions. He outlined the “long and tangled history"
of the School from a 1964 report proposing that a
School of Health Education be established up to the
present. Dr. Ketter staled that the need for budget
money and the fact that thirty-plus faculty members
were sitting in “limbo” as to the future of Ihc
School were his main considerations in having made
the decision.
Charles Paganelli spoke out on behalf of the
resolution proposed by the Council of Health
Science Senators. He expressed dismay at the
Presidential election. His disagreement with Dr.
Ketter’s decision was not centered on whether there
should or should not be such a school, “but only
because full consultation was not achieved.” The
main thrust of the resolution was that the Senate
and its Executive Committee should prevent any
such future occurence and that there be a
clarification of Senate by-laws and procedures.
The resolution also stated that the Health
Science School should not interfere with current
programs in the Health Sciences. The resolution was
passed with 17 abstaining and no negative voles.
Reassurance attempted
Again, Dr. Ketter reiterated the reasons for Ins
actions and tried to assure Dr. Paganelli and the
Health Science Senators that the new school would
in no way interfere with existing programs

Mark Shechner introduced a second similar
resolution. Stating that Dr. Keller’s action “raises
serious questions about the participation of the
faculty of SUNYAB in important academic
decisions,” Dr. Shechner called the President’s action
a challenge to the Senate and its by laws which
Ketter has never recognized and supported." Dr
Ketter retorted that no president should be bound
by any faculty by-laws.

Dr. Shechner and others expressed their
dissatisfaction with Dr. Kctter’s feelings about the
by-laws. They stated that the by-laws need to be

Three already created
At a meeting last May, the Faculty-Senate was
forced to put aside a proposal creating a new School
of Health Kducation when it could not muster a
quorum. The Faculty-Senate Executive Committee
then asked Senators, representing the Health
Sciences, to present its recommendations on the
proposed school at the first fall meeting.
Dr. Ketter told the Senate that he could not
wait until fall and asked the Senate to present its
recommendations by July 1 The recommendations
were not ready and on August 14 Dr. Ketter sent
letters to SUNY Chancellor Ernest Boyer and Health
Sciences Vice President F. Carter Pannill establishing
the new school.
He also said he had an “understanding” with Dr.
Pannill when he came to the University last spring
that the school would be established. Dr. Pannill was
out of town and could not be reached for
confirmation.
Dr. Ketter added that three already-existing

�New GSA president

Miller resignation
Editor’s Note; The following are excerpts from the letter of
resignation submitted by former Graduate Student Association
President Alan Miller prior to the GSA election Tuesday evening at
which Monte Janson was elected the new president.
I have enjoyed my five months as GSA President, or at least
most of it. Two of my mqjor goals in my term of office were to
bring the GSA into the public eye, and to help the graduate
students to finance their education. I believe the first has been
attained in the large amount of press and attention the GSA is now
receiving. On the second goal, I believe we have done more than
any comparable group in terms of establishing a functional GSA
Research Council, and through our testimony in Washington on
behalf of all grad students. A third task, that of proper grad student
representation in all departments is currently being studied by the
grad school executive committee. These projects are the type of
things that 1 came into this office hoping to do, and committed to.
Unfortunately, 1 soon found myself involved in other matters from
which 1 could not escape. Quickly after taking office I found
myself involved in a battle with Student Association officers who
were trying to buy a Sub-Board seat with black mail techniques.
After that it was getting the Administration to approve SASU, or a
disagreement over which publication would use which production
room, or the recent ignorance of our S45.000 Sub-Board I

allocation.
I had once again become involved in Norton Hall politics,
possibly the dirtiest outside of Washington, D.C. Student
politicians usually enter office with high ideals and sink slowly into
ego and personal interests. More than one friend has stabbed
another in the back, and more than one student body has been
sold-out by once well intentioned leaders.
For the GSA it is a sad state of affairs when one President has
to step down, partially because of the time Norton politics
consumes. But why is it that one must step down and only one
candidate steps forth,'and for the vacated second spot only two
serious candidates emerge . . One reason for my leaving, and for the
lack of people desiring office, is the time involved. It is impossible
for one person to do the job required of him and still maintain his
academic progress. I’m sure past officers will attest to this. On
return to the Senate one of my first actions will be to move to
create a new line of S800 for four executive assistants at S200 a
piece. These would include two presidential assistants, one assistant
treasurer, and one Exec. Asst, at large; their jobs would consist
mainly of compiling data and preparing reports for the Executive
Committee. They would be chosen by the Exec. Committee and
confirmed by the Senate. One stipulation would be that they are
not past GSA officers.
This brings me (o the next problem, GSA’s greatest asset may
be the reason for a lack of candidates. A core of old guard GSA
officers currently man top committee positions. These people who
I personally asked to serve in those positions do tremendous work
for the GSA. Unfortunately, their dedication, and my reliance on
them, has hindered new blood from entering the executive ranks.
As a recommendation to my successor, I suggest a re-evaluation of
top positions and the encouragement of new participants.
Finally, I thank you for the support you have given me during
my administration. I hope that in' my short term of office that I
have justified the faith that you have placed in me, and have made

a significant contribution.

Oranization is Janson goal
The new President of the
Graduate Student Association
(GSA) is Monte Janson. He
replaces Alan Miller who recently
resigned after only five months in
office.
When asked about last week’s
controversy over the failure of
various student associations to
appropriate money to Sub-Board
I, Inc., Mr. Janson replied “I
wasn’t aware” that Sub-Board did
not know the $45,000 GSA
allocation had already been
approved. However, Mr. Janson
acknowledged hearing Sub-Board
Treasurer Jennifer Washburn
announce that only the Millard
Fillmore College SA had made its
allocation to the Board. Mr.
Janson said the problem in
Sub-Board’s “crisis” was that
people panicked who didn’t know
that facts.
Mr. Janson hopes to use his
staff effectively to gather facts
and information about graduate
student problems. He said the
presdient should function “like
the president of a corporation,”
supervising and directing his staff.
The staff and executive
committee should provide him
with information while he
coordinates their efforts. Mr.
Janson expressed confidence that
he would be able to find the
responsible people necessary for
such an administration on the recruiting rather than through
current executive board.

insurance or renting apartments.
At the end of this one-year
trial, both parties could decide
whether they wanted to continue
the relationship. If students
agreed that joining NYPRIG was
beneficial, WNYPR1G would then
be asked to increase its allocation
beyond the initial $20,000.
“1 have enough faith in what
we’re doing to take that risk,”
said Mr. Ross. A $20,000 figure
might additionally be more'
acceptable to SA. He
acknowledged that New York
State presented special problems
for public-interest organizing, but
stressed that the rewards are
proportionately greater. “If you
do something spectacular in
Vermont, who hears about it?” he
asked.
The State University of Buffalo
is crucial to NYPIRG, said Mr.
Ross. Explaining that while in
New York City there were other
schools from which NYPIRG
could get support, in Western New
York; ‘The University of Buffalo
gets in or you’re a second-rate
operation .[it] is the key.” He
said that PIRGs have been
successful in such schools as Rice,
Duke, Vermont, Syracuse and
Texas, “hardly hotbeds of
activism.” It would be tragic, he
said, if this University failed to
take the lead in Western New
York.
In response to the inevitable
..

question whether students would
get three dollars worth of services
for their three dollar contribution,
Mr. Ross said: “Some will get
much more than that, some won’t
get that much directly.”
He said, however, that the
indirect benefits to students
would be far in excess of three
dollars. He cited economic
benefits from P1RG projects that
stop costly, fraudulent practices.
Mr. Ross also pointed out the
educational benefits for volunteer
students by real social problems
and getting real, practical
experience in solving them.
The concept of PIRG was born
when Mr. Ross and consumer
advocate Ralph Nader saw that
there was
a lot of sound and a

none of it was going anywhere.”
Mr. Nader and Mr. Ross saw
that the lack of continuity in
student activism preculded any
sophisticated action, the kind
needed to make basic reforms.
Mr. Nader’s experience with
summer student programs backed
up by a full-time professional staff
convinced them that a similar
kind of organization would yield
the best results, allowing PIRGs to
have the continuity of a full-time
staff and the sporadic bursts of
student activity.
That was in 1970. ‘The facts

‘The PIRG works.”

Sub-committee sets hearing
Selective arming of Campus Security will move
another step closer to reality next Tuesday,
September 25, when the Subcommittee on Internal
Security and Selective Arming will hold an open
hearing on its recommended guidelines. The hearing
called “for suggestions as to possible changes and
amendments to the guidelines,” will take place in
Room 147 Diefendorf Hall from 4 to 6 p.m.
The hearings purpose is to obtain community
input before the guidelines go to Ihe President's
office for final approval. Security must wail for Dr.
Kettdr’s okay before arming can aclually be
instituted. “We are waiting for firm guidelines from
Ihe
President’s
office
before
implementing
anything,” said Assistant Director of Security LeeGriffin.
Security officials as well as the guidelines
emphasize that the use of firearms is always a last
resort and shall he used only if someone’s life is in
danger. Several possible conditions are outlined in
the report, only exception being the killing of a
dangerous animal or one so badly hurt that shooting
it would be humane. Firing as a warning or at fleeing
persons or vehicles is expressly prohibited

Extensive training
Under the plan, the officers to carry arms will
be extensively trained in human dynamics and
relations and cultural factors of the members of the
University Community. The art of self defense and
the use of non-lethal weapons will also be included
in their orientation. Griffin suggested that these
skills could be fully attained by supplementing
material his college trained staff has already studied
in sociology and psychology with special courses
designed by this University’s faculty.

The subcommittee’s recommendation required
that two plain clothesmen on each shift carry
concealed weapons. Griffin anticipates possible
trouble with this stipulation due to a union
regulation that all officers be uniformed. The report
also calls for mandatory written reports from the
officer involved after the displaying or discharging of
a weapon.

“We want our people to be better qualified than any
other law enforcement agency around,” said Griffin.
Speaking of the need for arming Mr. Griffin
said: “The community expects us to protect them. If
we are to do this properly, we cannot be unarmed. If
they don’t want this, then our role should be
redefined," continues Griffin “But we think we
know the community better and would be able to

of arming
Altitudes which must be inculcated or
reinforced in any armed officer include the
feeling of the extreme responsibility incurred in
carrying a weapon, and a number of important
supporting guidelines. Among these is the
responsibility to avoid using the weapon to
threaten an unarmed individual, or group of
individuals, no matter how extreme the
psychological provocation. It is recognized,
however, that on rare occasions an unarmed
individual or group of individuals may pose an
extreme, even lethal, physical threat to the
officer or to others, and that in this instance the
officer may be justified in drawing the weapon in
response. Awareness of a primary responsibility
to avoid injury to bystanders is essential in a
situation which may require the use of the
weapon. A sensitivity to the image of law
enforcement agencies held, whether validly or
not, by various people likely to be encountered
on campus is necessary in providing responsible,
adequate and widely accepted protection for the
university community and its guests.

TAT,

A tragic experiment
The entire country is watching to gauge the effects of nation's
toughest drug law in "liberal" New York State and to see what
implications this law holds for other states.
After only three weeks, conservatives are citing the reported
decrease of hard drugs on the street as evidence of the new law's
immediate success. In reality, the reduced street traffic is probably only
temporary, being the result of initial caution by dealers contemplating
new and safer ways to go underground. Within six months, however,
the deleterious effects of this most reactionary law will become
increasingly and graphically clearer.
When a couple of policemen are shot confronting a desperate
addict who knows he faces life in jail if he's caught, the public will try
not to notice. When a few juries fail to convict young users or pushers
because they know they will be sent to jail for life with no discretion
by the judge possible, regadless of circumstances, the public will stir.
When several massive bribes to law enforcement officials are discovered,
with the realization that when the stakes go up (life imprisonment), so
do the poker chips (bribes), the public will sit up and take notice.
This will only be the beginning. With the virtual removal of plea
bargaining (pleading guilty to a lesser charge in exchange for
information), big-time dealers, who never touch anything but the
money, will be even further shielded. This is the tragedy of the new
law. Far from "getting tough" on big suppliers, its actual result will be
thousands of cases deluging the courts in persecution of small-time or
even occasional users, thousands of ruined lives, but no effect on
behind-the-secnes suppliers.
The politically attractive law may seem to be aimed at the
hard-core criminal addict; in fact it totally ignores the real nature of
drug abuse. When parents see life sentences being indiscriminately
slapped on young people whose only crime was a misguided abuse of
ups or downs or cocaine, young people they know personally, young
people bearing not the slightest resemblance to criminals, then the
repressive aspects of the law will be painfully clear. When our
already-deluged courts become paralyzed by the influx of drug cases,
when our already-overcrowded prisons deteriorate further into seething
hotbeds, people will be forced to relegate the law to the list of glaring
inadequacies of our pitiful criminal justice system.
Paralyzed courts and overcrowded jails will not bother Nelson
Rockefeller of Attica fame. He seeks only to extract the political

can be no doubt that God might have become
seriously overworked. Mohammed, Christ and
Buddha might have been close personal friends of
God, but after they introduced their followers to
Him, I bet ya God decided that he had had enough
of this prophet business.
God tried to knock off some of his flock by
pitting them against each other in Holy Wars and
Crusades, but no matter how many died, they still
managed to reproduce at alarming rates, each time
invoking God’s name at the moment of conception.
It was after the population explosion that God
decided to revamp his organization and remodel it
along modern lines. So although the Guru might
promise that “1 can show you God face to face,”
don’t bet on it.
If you wanted to get in touch with God these
days via the express route, you have to go to the
fundamentalist sects. So Monday.night 1 went to one
of the Guru’s meetings in order to be introduced to
God, face to face. I must confess that I was slightly
nervous due to the fact that I had never seen God
before (in reality, I never really tried), and I really
wasn’t quite sure what to wear. I sat down, began to
concentrate; finally after an hour of blankness, I
yelled out of sheer frustration: “Oh God, I’m
bored!” Suddenly I heard a shrill ringing in my ears,
after a few seconds a metallic voice resounded
throughout my head: “God’s Office, may I help
you?” Before I could respond the voice flatly stated:
“Please hold, I have a call on the other line.” After a
lew minutes, the voice came back and asked me
what I wanted. I replied that 1 wanted to see God
face to face and if possible have him do some magic
tricks for me. I was then referred to the Department
of Miracles and Holy Works where I filled out a
request form for the miracles that 1 wanted. 1 was
then told to come back in three days for a response.
Three days later as I was meditating in one of
Norton’s Johns, the ringing returned and 1 was again
talking to the secretary of the Miracle and Holy
Work department. I was told that God could not see
me for a while due to his busy schedule, and if I still
wished to see him, I should make an appointment
with his appointments secretary. As for the miracles
I requested, it seemed that due to unprecedented
demand, the miracles were closed out for this year.
If any of you guys out there can bring me face
to face with God, please call me. I need someone to
break all of that red tape. God’s appointment
secretary told me that if I wanted to see God, I
would have to go to his territory and I’m not ready
for that as of yet.

THE PETE HAMILL COLUMN

‘Chile could be another Spain

To the Editor.

All I could think of as I read Monday’s The
Spectrum was: “Can’t they see the problem?!” The
student government of this school has control of a
minimum of $1,340,000 per year (assuming $67
from each of 20,000 students). Naturally, with that
kind of money to disperse, they have a lot of power
over every group or activity that wants some of it
and naturally, those with that power are going to use
it by meddling in organizations’ activities and
making “managerial-level decisions.”
So, to meekly come out in an editorial asking
Sub-Board to “not antagonize its groups with undue
interference” and to please “keep its hands out of
policy” is utterly laughable. They are given the
power and the right to interfer the minute they are
given your $67. The only way to change that is to
change the “mandatory” in front of “student
activity fees.” No matter how good the intentions
are and no matter who you elect into the Student
Association, you give up your freedom of choice as
to what happens to your money the minute it is in
their hands, simply because that is their job: to
decide for you what happens to your money.
Sub-Board was accused of slashing certain arts
programs without consulting student surveys. Also,
setting
budget ceilings
and making activities
“income-offset” (i.e., making enough money to pay
for their costs) were named in the editorial as
desirable goals. Isn’t it obvious that the easiest way
to achieve these goals and to halt Sub-Board tyrrany
is by allowing each student to keep his $67 and
decide with his own adult brain what clubs he wants
to support or what concerts and movies he wants to
see on the campus?
If that is too “drastic” a solution, as a
compromise measure, how about allocating the
money to only the group or groups or activities that
the student joins or wants to support? Thus, if a
student joined one group, that group would get $67.
If he joined one group and subscribed to the paper,
the group would get $33'A and the paper would get
$33‘/i. If instead, he joined two groups and
subscribed to a concert or movie series, each group
would get S22V4 and the organizers of the concert
series (i.e., UUAB) would also get $22Vi. The student
could, feasibly, join up to a maximum of 67 groups
under that system without paying additional dues.
The problem with that proposition is it is rather
cumbersome to manage and would undoubtedly
require the setting up of a whole new bureaucracy to
administer it.
In any case, students are getting pretty upset
with this “annual $67 rip-off” and in my view,
ending the “mandatory” aspect of it is the only way
to end their discontent.

None of this- had to happen. Suppose, when
Allende was elected, that Nixon had been outgoing

and warm. Suppose he had traveled personally to
Chile, the way he went to China and the Soviet
Union. He could have done that.
He could have instructed the World Bank and all
the relevant agencies to pour the money into Chile,
to show that the Americans were not paranoid
lunatics about socialism, to prove that we cared
more for justice and freedom than we did for the
continued
profits of a handful of capitalist
companies. We could have cut off the military aid
(Chile, after all, was not threatened by any other
country) and we could have helped Allende build his
democratic socialism.

Another Spain, The words are chilling, because
they remind us again of how much the old American
ideals have been twisted and subverted in the years
since 1936. When Francisco Franco landed his
armies in Spain to overthrow the freely-elected
government of the Republic, he had the backing of
the Nazis. When the armed forces of Chile overthrew
the freely-elected government of Salvatore Allende,
they did so with the blessings of the United States.
We have come a long way.

“There’s nothing we can say publicly about it,”
another diplomat said at the reception the other
night. “After all, we have to live in the world with
you."
Poor Allende probably never had a chance of
making democratic socialism work in Chile. The
Americans leared him not simply because he was
socialist but because he was also democratic
If a socialist country could be built without
crushing the free press, without creating vast prisons
for political opponents, without resorting to Stalinist
murder and repression, the world would be certain
to change. All the stereotypes would have to be
altered, in the U.S. as well as in the under-developed
countries.
So the Nixon government and its big business
affiliates started moving against Allende even before
he was elected. Harold Geneen and other ITT
officials have admitted to Congress that they raised
$1 million to defeat Allende, or to buy him off later.

We did just the opposite. This is, of course, no
surprise. But it confirms again that the U.S. needs a
major internal restructuring before it can ever again
he considered a great nation, or before it can lay
claim to anything resembling moral superiority.
This country simply does not belong to the
people who contributed to Nixon’s campaigns. And
its greatness must be derived from a commitment to
freedom, not to capitalism.
The hard-line Communists will use Chile as an
object lesson to those who still believe that socialism
can be democratic. Nixon and Brezhnev were no
doubt equally cheered by the news from Santiago.
But when those diplomats were sipping their drinks
in New York the other night, and Salvatore Allende
lay bleeding on his couch in Santiago, it wasn’t
socialism that was dying. It was freedom. And there
isn't enough of it in this world any more to ignore
even one small death.

�Two views of violence: exploitation and Truth'
'Manson'

Film exploits violence
by Bonnie Semons
Spectrum Film Critic
Frequently, movies are produced for the
simple purpose of capitalizing upon
popular sentiments. Nostalgia films are a
prime example. This exploitation of the
in
although
unforgivable
audience,
principle, is readily acceptable in reality.
Nostalgia films are fun, and a bit of

romanticism never hurt anyone.
However, a documentary that seriously
exploits and condones the lust for violence
that has long been characteristic of the
American (movie-going) public is a base,
valueless film.
Manson is such a film. Purporting to
explain the truth about the man who
inspired such brutal murders as the
Tate-LaBianca slaughters, the film does the
opposite.
It
deifies
Manson
and
romanticizes his power.
Blender

The film is compiled from home movies,
television films and interviews (taken after
MansQn had been incarcerated). Its focal
points were "Manson's Girls": Sadie Atkins
(on death row for the murder of Sharon
Tate), Pat Krenwinkle, Leslie van Houton
(also on death row); and Paul Watkins, a
flutist who lived and partied with the
family for a period of about a year.
Watkins
left when Manson started
preaching death.
Primarily through interviews of Mr.
Buleosi (the California state prosecutor),
the film expalins Manson's motivation for
the killings. Manson, Buleosi says, intended
instigate a racial war. By murdering
Sharon Tate, the LaBiancas, and Abagail
Folger (an heiress), and intending the
killings to be blamed on the Black
community, Manson hoped a Black-White
to

would be initiated. Manson then
assumed that the weak leaderless Black
force that emerged victorious would have
to call upon him as their leader.

war

Cheesecake
Yet, exposing Manson's motivation was
not the point of the film. Laurence
Merrick, the producer of the document,
instead chose to use the sex appeal of the
three girls (always posed with either guns
or knives). The questions asked of them
concentrated mainly on their weapons, the
answers mainly proved the knives and
weapons to be phallic symbols in the eyes
of the girls. The death trip is seen as the
ultimate orgasm for which all of them
strived, yet none, save Manson, attained,
Manson claimed he died on the cross.
Merrick appeared to be strangely
excited by Manson's self-image. A religious
inspiration for the killings can almost be
seen as an adequate justification in
Merrick's eyes. With every testimony to
Manson's godliness, the film intensifies, the
pitch of the music, and the visual effects
take on extra meanings. An implied parallel
is drawn between the Negev and Death

Valley.

The shortcomings in the film are
obvious to the point of being ludicrous,
Manson's power is often spoken of, but
never explained. The film offers only one
solid statement to "explain" the killings.
Leslie Van Houten states that they are all
"T.V. Children," born and bred on the
violence of our times.
No explanation is offered as to why
these people are unable to separate the
myth of cartoons from the reality of

amateurish, shots are often blurred and
unconnected. The movie is repetitious to
the point of boredom. Save your money.

Political expose

Yankees in Latin affairs
In complete contrast to the disregard
for the truth presented in Manson, I offer
Costa Gavras' new film State of Siege
Following in his tradition of Z,
Costa Gavras has produced a brilliant,
documented expose on the American
infiltration of Latin American countries.
Casting Yves Montand as Phillip Michael
Santore (a pseudonym foi Dan Mitnone),
the American AID official who was
kidnapped and killed in Uruguay on
August 9, 1970, Costa-Gavras reconstructs
the events that took place in the week
before Mitrione's death.
Santore, Consul campos of Brazil, and
Anthony Lee, the American ambassador to
Brazil (who was released the same day),
were kidnapped by the Tupamaros on

Monday, August 3.
The kidnapping was in reaction to the
gradual military take over of Uruguay and

to the censorship of the university. It was
an attempt to free political prisoners. But,
most importantly, it was in reaction to the

American intervention in the politics of
Uruguay, an effort to expose the truth to
the world.

Pen querry
Using photocopies of documents. New
York Times articles, and tape recorders,
the prisoners were interrogated. No
confessions were forced; the prisoners were
well treated. It is fascinating to watch
Santore, an arms expert, squirm when
assaulted with an arsenal of verbal truths.
Hugo (Jacques Weber) interrogated
Santore. At first, Santore insisted that he
was simply an official, sent to help advise
the Uruguayan police in traffic control.
The Tupamaros' documents proved
otherwise.
In 1962, Santore arrived in Brazil, as a

police advisorT on the basis of an official
agreement between the American and
Brazilian governments. In 1964, the
democratic government of Goulart in
Brazil was overthrown. President Johnson

sent his congratulations to the military and
the police even before the putsch was
complete
Hugo read from a New York Times

article: "In Brazil, the United States in less
than ten years, has helped train locally
more
than
one
hundred thousand
policemen . . . Six hundred more police
officials have been trained in the US."
Hugo discusses political tortures by the
police,
and Santore admits to the
knowledge, but implies that the Brazilian
bishops who denounced those tortures
were Communists.

Itinerant terrorist
After Brazil, Santore went to Santo
Domingo, scene of a 1965 army uprising in
which American marines participated.
Then Santore came to Uruguay.
The film is documented
the book,
with the documents, is in paperback
with facts, stolen files from AID (the
American Agency for International
Development) and photographs from the
international police academy. The electric
shock torture that is seen in the movie has
been used, and probably is still being used,
in several Latin American countries (and
who knows where else).
The actu z
uie film is excellent. Yves
Montand portrays the perfect
well indoctrinated fascist. He's snearing,
ironic, sarcastic, and almost impenetrable.
Jacques Weber is strong
his lines, as well
as his characterization, evoke an enormous
amount of intellectual empathy for the
—

Tupamaro's cause.

Costa-Gavras has done an excellent,
in producing, directing and
co-writing State of Siege (Franco Solinas
The Battle of Algiers
had a hand in it
too). Costa-Gavras has beautiful technique;
he carefully focuses fffs camera on the 1
Uruguayan people. He tells us, his camera
tells us, their eyes tell us the truth. The
people see the truth. I wonder what the i
people see in Chile today.

Old blowouts
by wizened aged ones with
jowls and atrophoid bowels can be
excessively depressing if you're youthoid, but
they've got a certain sense of impending doom which
is comforting to many, and sometimes these old
blowouts can jump up on the bar and lampshade
their way to inner bliss with the best of 'em.
Which brings us to the dreaded, sometimes just
plain hated, youthbars. The meeting places of kids
out to waste time and make time and booze and

place is a bar called Mr. Goodbar, the master link for

Enter stage left: a slightly
plump blonde of medium height
with round wire-rimmed
spectacles on her nose and a red
and black wool beanie on her
head. She smiles and chats (in a
British accent) with the audience
as she tunes her guitar. With
strong, skilled fingers, she begins
to play.

with a husky, bluesy voice ("Let's
get together, baby, see what we
can do"). Her eyes are almost
closed and her face looks hard as
she flings the words out at us.
I'm not writing about a duet.
I'm describing one Jo-Ann Kelly,
a female vocalist/guitarist who
chooses to express herself not so
much with pretty tones and finger
picking as with gutsy notes and a
slide bar on her finger. A lady
from across the sea who digs
down into the earthy roots of
contemporary music
from
Robert Johnson to Buddy Holly,
with the likes of John Lee Hooker
and Muddy Waters in between.

Slide wail
And there she was, sitting on
the stage of Norton coffeehouse.
She had two guitars with her (one

six. one twelve) and between

them, she managed a whole range
of back-up sounds for herself.
Strumming up on the high frets
Belongs
for a Dylan number
to Me," her guitar sounded almost

like an autoharp. Playing the
lower frets on open tuning, she
filled the room with full bassy
tones. And with a slide on her
finger, the place jumped. It did
my heart good to see a woman
who had mastered the instrument
as well as so many men who seem
to think that they're the only
ones who can make it wail.
Jo-Ann kept the pace going on
a frisky energy level throughout
the show. Her renditions of
standard tunes like "Come in to
My Kitchen" and "Walkin' the
Dog" kept their original flavor,
but were adapted just to the point
where they had enough rockin'
beat to keep it all moving. The
peak of the show came towards
the end of the night with a
number of her own composition,
"Little Miss Femme Fatale," that
had my whole body moving. Both
her voice and her gpitar sang out
strong, full, and low down.
I have only one regret: Jo-Ann
didn't have anyone else backing
her up. I would've liked to see her

play slide guitar freed from
keeping the rhythm and beat. But

I guess that's what a coffeehouse
is about
less people on stage,
less people in the audience, less
money out of your pocket, more
intimate atmosphere. And after
all, if you're not close enough to
the stage to see a blues singer sing,

A visual STatement

The photograph as history
From the time of Daguerre's presentation to the
of Sciences and the Academy of Fine Arts
(Aug. 19, 1839) to the present underground films
and Earth images from the Moon, man has been
pondering himself and his environment. He has
stepped aside and with a click has captured his
essence in a moment of time. Visually, he has linked
the past to the present with the social document.
At no other time in history has man recorded
himself to this extent. Before the Daguerrotype it
was the world of paint, the artist's conception of the
object; he was limited by his medium. With the
conception of the photographic image, man could
instantaneously see himself as he was. Imagine a
person never having seen himself (mirrors were not
perfected as of yet) being handed his exact likeness.
Social shock
that is me!
Man started to extend himself; he became aware
of a different reality. Brady's photographing of the
Civil War destroyed Johnny when he marched home
again. Tim O'Sullivan's photograph, A Harvest of
Death, Gettysburg 1863 presented to the wordly
audience War and Death.

Throughout the last 80 years, photographers
like Alfred Stieglitz, Paul Strand, Walker Evans,
Cartier-Besson, Robert Frank, Nathon Lyons, Lee
Fried lander and countless others have been
presenting a visual dialogue between their eye, the
world and the viewer. They have recorded the
process to the instamatic syndrome, the yellow

and printed in books.
What is happening with all those Kodak
products? One direction may be to recycle them, to
put them up on walls, poles and whatever, but in the
locations where you recorded them. And hopefully
they'll be gone by noon.
The result maybe a better awareness of
themselves or a place, and yourself as a image maker.
The advantage of the book over prints in a gallery is
that it allows the work to be seen by vast numbers of
people more than for just a short period. As the
work is there on the shelf, it can be picked up at any

A disadvantage may be that you are viewing a
reproduction rather than an actual print. This is
where my interest now lies: in the book as a form

�ART GARFUNKEL Angel Clare (Columbia)
Everybody's got their own Art Garfunkel is a
fag story. This is the one I heard. A few years ago at
Stony Brook, Simon and Garfunkel gave a concert
and people came from all over. A friend of my
sister's, nameless but male, was waiting at their car
after the show so he could catch a look at the two
stars as they came offstage. He did more than catch a
look Art Garfunkel tried to pick him up and take
him in his car somewhere. Of course our nameless
male declined such a request, thus preserving his
integrity when he came back to tell the tale. I heard
it through my sister, who insists she knew the guy
and that he meant it with wide eyes.
Who am I to argue with senstionalist glamor
gossip? Anyway, I almost believe it because after all,
she is my sister and I know when she is to be
believed. All that matters really is my own
credibility, so don't worry about it. Heh. Heh. You
see. Art Garfunkel has released a solo album and the
cover picture is soft as a baby's tooshee. There he is,

stompings.

Now we've got the New Yawk Dollies, the punk
androids of the subway dressed in a decadent
malevolence gnashing their teeth and flipping their
wrists; rhinestone-encrusted switchblades vs. the
grease-ladened bike chains of the ghetto rumble. The
glitter of a failing society bundled up in a neat little
package of rock 'n' joy.
For almost two years the scene in the City
breezed from the cubiclesque Max's Kansas City to
the garrish Continental Baths creating a sub-culture
of bizarreness and decay. Also creating at the same
time a fantastical collection of musical mutants
ranging from the coy boyishness of Jonathan
Richmond and the Modern Lovers (currently being
produced by John Cale); to the blatant rogue-out of
Ruby and the Rednecks; right on through to the
gangly gouche of Wayne County, culminating in the
pinnacle of punknacity, the New York Dolls.

The Dolls, or the Dollies, depending on just how
Continental your awareness is, are a group of young
wild boys lisping n' rawkin' their way into the homes
of mid-American mentalities. Lipstick n' rouge
replacing grease and Vitalis without any conscious
change in attitude.
The Dollies are the first of the New York Bands
to break out of the concrete shell and assault teenage
groinhood. Their first album is a bizarre meeting of
the Philly Freeze and the Lindy—Todd Rundgren vs.
the Dolls in the recording studio (continuing his
trend towards being the first hack genius of the

It had been a rough road and he was forced to
go it alone, but here he is with Angel Clare. He wrote
none of the tunes, which indicates more a state of
mind than lack of talent or a lot of class, so he relies
mainly on standards. Re: Barbara Ann, Travelling

There are string arrangements, and for once I
can't complain. After all. Art Garfunkel is not Jack
Bruce. It sounds nice this way. There are no upbeats
they all have that Bridge Over Troubled Water
kind of fulfillment, like ballads and folksongs that
evolve without speeding up, and there is ample use
of double and triple-tracking so you can hear a
whole choir of Art Garfunkels, with two voices on
each part. IT SOUNDS SO FUCKING SWEET! THE
WHOLE THING IS SO FUCKING SWEET! I know
it's beautiful and it makes me feel so good to be
listening to it, but I'm still too embarassed to take it
off the headphones. (Nobody's ever gonna catch me
listening to Arthur Garfunkel, the dumb fag
intellectual movie star.)

Anyway, the Dollies record is as fine an effort as
any of 'em. It's a tightly packed suppository of rock
'n' roll, sans the added visual gyrations of lead singer
David Jo Hansen, its just waiting to violate some
young boy's sexual identity. It's a record based on
raw power, sheer energy, like all that early Stones
material and the regional mid-sixties genius of the
Shadows of Knight, the Sonics, etc. Pure punk force
making you bend over and take it right up the hiney.
Like the teenage Frankensteins they sing about,

Western pressures for a freer flow

that the agreements of the past

ambiguous maneuvers.”

Doctorate evaluation recommends

ALBANY, N Y. (API)
The State Board of Regents,
governing body of all education in the state, Wednesday
recommended an evaluation of all doctoral programs in the
state to meet standards of “high quality and demonstrated
-

needs.”

Agnew would rather 'fight’
A source close to Vice
WASHINGTON (UPI)
President Spiro T. Agnew said Wednesday the White House
apparently was behind the report that Agnew has discussed
resigning. He said the vice president will “fight” rather
than step down. The source said there were “indications

-

The interest he paid on loans for the purchase of his
homes in San Clemente, Calif., and Key Biscayne, Fla.,
plus a $570,000 write-off he got for donating personal
papers to the National Archives, were more than sufficient
to put him among the 183 persons in the nation fortunate
enough to make more than $200,000 annually and pay no
taxes during those two years.

&lt;

The Regents, in a position paper, further proposed
that all schools in the state which grant doctoral degrees
plan for five-year periodic “self-assessment” of their
doctoral programs and describe the evaluation plan in their
1974 progress reports to the Regents.
The position paper also called on the schools to
“initiate a more rigorous recruitment program to attract
more women students and members of minority groups as
doctoral students.”
On the financial side, the Regents recommended that
following the statewide evaluation there should be an
increase in state aid for all “quality public and private
doctoral-granting programs.’’

POLL

Americans feel threat
by Louis Harris

HAS COUNTRY BECOME
MORE OR LESS REPRESSIVE?

1973 by The Chicago Tribune
The revelations of the Watergate investigation
have had a profound impact on the awareness of the
American people of threats to individual liberty, and
have made the public much more convinced that
specific acts by government have been not only
unnecessary but dangerous. A 52 percent majority
now agree with the statement that “things have
become more repressive in this country in the past
few years.”
Among the key findings of a special Harris
Survey during the recent Congressional recess were:
By 69 to 10 percent, a sizable majority of the
people classify the raid of Daniel Ellsberg’s
psychiatrist’s office by private agents hired by the
White House as “unjustified and repressive.”
By 44 to 34 percent, a plurality feel that “the
arrest and trial of members of the Vietnam Veterans
Against the War for plans to disrupt the 1972
Republican convention” was also beyond acceptable
bounds. Just after completion of the survey, the trial
against the Vietnam veterans’ group was dismissed.
By 68 to 17 percent, a majority feel the same
way about the drawing up of an “enemies” list by
the White House of opponents of President Nixon.
By 83 to 8 percent, the public is massively
critical about the hiring of private detectives by the
White House to spy on the sex life, drinking habits,
and family problems of political opponents.
By 55 to 31 percent, Americans now agree
that the National Guard shooting at rioting students
at Kent State University which resulted in four
deaths was “unjustified and repressive.” Back in
1970, by a narrow 40-39 percent margin, the publiccondoned the Kent State sho tings as “necessary
and justified.”
By 67 to 23 percent, the public condemns the
idea of sentencing a college student to 20 years in
jail for possession of marijuana. Back in the 1960’s a
Virginia student was given such a sentence.
By 50 to 33 percent, the public also rejects
any rationale in support of “court orders and
municipal decrees banning rock music festivals after
tickets have been sold and the audiences have begun
to assemble.”
-

Those interviewed were shown a list of
controversial incidents that have taken place over the
past few years. In only one of the episodes tested,
“the police tactics in Chicago at the time of the
1968 Democratic convention,” did the public give its
approval. By a narrow 42-38 percent, a plurality of
the public still believe that the action by Chicago
police in using violence against demonstrators on
that occasion was “justified and necessary.”
However, back in 1970, a much more decisive
53-26 percent majority gave its backing to the
tactics of Chicago police.

In retrospect, the American people are now
convinced much more than they were a few years
ago that the country has been living through a “more
repressive” period. The national cross section was
asked:
“Would you say things have become more
repressive in this country in the past few years, less
repressive, or not much different?”

Undoubtedly, a number of the disclosures in the
Watergate affair have heightened both public-

awareness of governmental acts which are viewed as
repressive, and also have turned around publicopinion dramatically in raising people's concerns
about repression.
The cross section was asked about these
specifics: "We'd like to remind you of some
incidents and episodes that have taken place in this
country over the past couple of years. For each, tell
me if you think the action was necessary and
justified,
or whether it
was unjustified and

College E has many new courses which appear only in the

Studerfts should consult this catalog each term. Many college

College E finds many of its newest programs weakened by the lack
of student enrollment and participation. For this reason, College E

Buffalo’s new soccer coach, Sal
Esposito, exudes optimism when
discussing the prospects of this
year’s hooters. “I expect we’ll
have a winning season,” claims
Esposito. “We have an extremely
tough schedule, especially Ohio
University (NCAA semi-finalist in
1972) and Brockport (1972
SUNYAC co-champions). I’ve got
to get them (the Bulls) to play
together as a team. If I can get
them playing together as a unit,
we’ll be on our way.”
The 1972 soccer Bulls, despite
having compiled a record of seven
wins against four losses, were
weak offensively, averaging only
2.2 goals per game. The defense
carried the hooters through much
of last season and that could be

Esposito stated. “McBee hasn’t
been out enough for me to get a
good look at him,” added
Esposito, indicating that Daddario
will be the probable starter
tomorrow against Syracuse.
Returning to lead the mid-field
corps is sophomore Jerry
Galkiewicz, a freshman standout
on the ’72 squad. “We’re
depending on him at halfback,”
said Esposito. “He’s got a good
working knowledge of the game
and he’s a real hustler.”
Galkiewicz will be joined at one
halfback spot by Mike Pietrasik, a
walk-on and pleasant surprise for
Esposito. “Mike was like finding a
diamond in a coal bin
a real
gem. I’m much impressed by his
play, and I expect big things from
him.”
f
Newcomers populate the
forward line in an attempt to
generate the scoring punch that
the Bulls often lacked in 1972.
One of the top guns will be Jude
Ndenge, a sophomore who sat out
last season due to an eligibility
problem. “Jude has a tremendous
knowledge of the game, as well as
tremendous ability with the ball,”
said Esposito. Joining Ndenge at
an inside spot will be wither Kolo
Babagama, another sophomore, or
Jim Young, a transfer from
Middlesex CC. Esposito remarked;
“Jim will be used as a utility man.
He can move anywhere up front
he’ll do the job any place 1 put
him.”
Manning one of the outside
slots will be the sole returning
letterman on the line, sophomore
Doug Leininger. “Doug has a
knack for setting up play on his
side of the field,” said Esposito.
“We’ll be counting on him on one
of the wings.” The competition
on the other wing is wide open,
with junior Justus Reeves leading
the competition for the starting

the case again- this year.
Spearheading the defense this
season will be Jim Lienert, one of
the two Buffalo seniors on the
team. “Jim is the key to the
defense,” remarked Esposito.
“He’s a real hustler and he’s got a
big foot.” Flanking Liehert will be
sophomore Jim Baker, who was a
starter last year and Paul
Marcolini, an “extremely
aggressive” transfer from Orange
CC.
Daddario to start
The Bulls have two goaltenders
backing up the defense in
incumbent Jeff McBee, starter
during most of 1972, and
freshman Frank Daddario. “Frank
has a lot of guts. He’s got what it
takes to be a good goalie and he’s
a very serious contender for the
starting position in goal;”

The whole F-1 system includes over 40 lenses and

everything in photography So whatever idea you
have for a picture, the F-1 has the equipment to make
sure you get it
Because it-was conceived from the beginning as a

quickly and easily interchangeable. No matter which
lens or accessory you use with the F-1 body you won t
have the feeling that something has been

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

controversy

funding referendum is slated
by Amy Dunkin
Campus Editor

A Student; Association (SA)
referendum oh October 2,3 and 4
;

hopefully
settle
the
vHll
controversial funding question for
the Western New York Public
Group
Interest
Research

(WNYPIRG).
The referendum is the outcome
of an action by SA President Jon
Dandes, who returned to the
Student Assembly its legislation
that the SA should obtain

membership with New York State
(NYSPIRG) by entering into a
formal contract. Attached to the
motion was a rider that would have
raised the mandatory student
activities by $3 and subsequently
turned the money over to

The purpose of the referendum,
Mr. Dandes explained, is to
determine the opinion of the
general student body on increasing
the mandatory student fee. Any
further action in the Student
Assembly will be based on the
results, he said.
In a letter addressed to the
Student Assembly, Mr. Dandes
explained that although he “firmly
believes in the philosophy of
WNYP1RG,” he felt the action
taken by the Student Assembly at
its meeting last May 16 was
“arbitrary and capricious.”
The motion was proposed after

Asserting that SA cannot give
WN YP1RG the financial security it
seeks, Mr. Dandessaid: “Wedonot

the mandatory student fee to hire a

Additionally, he objected to the
fact that the State University of
Buffalo “must bear the brunt of
the financial obligations for an
organization that will benefit other
campuses in the area.” He
suggested that SA obtain firm
financial commitments from other
campuses before it promises such
large amounts of money.

Mr. Dandes wrote; “The

reached at the very last meeting of
the Assembly as the vpry last item

Meeting during finals week. The
preponderence of proxy votes was

YAF looks at mandatory fees
This semester has been marked
by the reappearance on campus of
a group tjiat has been inactive for
the past several years the Young
Americans for Freedom (YAF).
According to YAF members Jim
—

Wilson and Jackie Davies: “YAF
is a bi-partisan grqup of young
people
that believes in the
principles of conservatism and
free enterprise. Our basic purpose
is to educate people to those
principles through the use of
speakers, films and the like.”

This
semester
the major
emphasis of YAF activities on
campus will be an attempt to end
mandatory student fees, with
special attention being given to
the PIRG
referendum
in
mid-October. According to Mr.
Wilson; “Support for student
activities should be voluntary,
since it’s our money being spent.”
He vehemently added that “the
student government should not
take our money from us and
distribute it without our
consent.”
Due to the newness of the

Buffalo chapter of YAF,
additional plans remain hazy.

Room for dissent

According to Ms. Davies, YAF
members have much room for 1
dissent and
each individual
member is permitted to pursue
whatever program he supports.
On
basic philosophy all
YAF’crs are united behind the
following
I)
beliefs:
the
importance of the individual arid
his freedom and the uniqueness of
the United States as an historical
experiment; 2) the notion that
free market economy is the best
system feasible to preserve the
freedom that YAF believes in; 3)
the premise that the main
function of government is to
ensure an orderly, free society
without growing too large or
having too much power, as it
seemingly does today; 4) the
principle that a moral victory over
Communism and the fact that the
greatest threat to individual
freedom today is international
Communinism should both be
stressed.

added that, “YAF is the only
group that offers a viable solution

today in that it emphasizes less
government intervention instead
of more.”
YAF may face a stormy life on
campus in the weeks ahead.
According to two YAF members,

table and began

literature on the floor of the

drug law. Today’s article deals with how the law

affects the Buffalo area. Friday’s article will focus on
the law's effect upon the University community.
by Marc Jacobson
City Editor

For the past nineteen days, New York State has
had the toughest drug law in the nation. The law,
designed to get the “big-time pusher” and clear the
streets of illegal narcotics traffic, has been immersed
in controversy since its inception. The rest of the
country .is carefully watching to judge the law’s
effectiveness and ramifications.
The general theme
the conversations with
persons knowledgeble about the law in Buffalo was
that the law has had a definite effect upon drug
traffic in the street, but that it is too early to tell
exactly what the long-term and larger effects of the
law would be.
Captain Kevin Connors of the Narcotics Division
of the Buffalo Police Department said Street activity
has either diminished or become more secretive. He
believes the traffic has actually diminished, and that
many of the “big-time, open” dealers have left the
•

State.

Same job for police
Cipt ."Connors feels that the policeman’s job is
still basically the same. His powers for arresting
offenders has not been increased, nor have the
investigatory powers of his agency. However, Capt.
Comiors said that the Police Department will work
closely with the other agencies involved in drug cases
such as the Efie County Sheriff’s Department and
the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
Formerly, drug dealers would openly peddle
their wares on the streets of Buffalo. In the last two
weeks, however, Capt. Connors has reported that the
have resorted to leaving the goods in one
particular place, and retrieving the money for them
in another. This type of activity avoids the
face-to-face contact that often leads to arrest.
In addition to the more surrepititous nature of
drug traffic, the number of transactions has
reportedly decreased. According to Capt. Connors,
pushers are holding back on their narcotics, adopting
the “wait-and-see” attitude which has permeated the
minds of all people involved with the new law
from users to enforcers. This withholding of drugs
has caused fhe price of a bag of heroin on Buffalo’s
streets to dse from $10 a bag to $ 15 a bag.

Decrease in arrests

heroin. When thorough laboratory tests were
completed, it was discovered that none of the
confiscated bags had any heroin in them at all. The
bags did contain substantial amounts of quinine,
and/or milk sugar.
A careful reading of the law reveals that the
penalties for certain drug-related offences are more
severe than the penalties for murder. This raises the
question of whether an addict would be more prone
to shoot a policeman, or some other agent if the
addict were confronted with arrest, and the resulting
life sentence. Capt. Connors responded to this
question by stating that when a narcotics raid
occurs, the arresting officer usually has an entourage
of assistants, most of them armed. “In this situation,
the addict certainly would be the loser, particularly
in light of every policeman’s weapons training.”
However, Capt. Connors added “one person’s guess
is as good as anybody elsc’s.”

Graduate students at the State Holt, was concerned with the

about the law.” As yet, no material has been sent

law to answer the police force’s questions. Capt.
Connors is “happy the authorities aren’t giving up on
the problem. If this doesn’t work, they 11 have to try
something else," he said.
Focusing on the marijuana sections of the law,
Capt. Connors said he was in agreement with the
new law because “we know so little about
marijuana." Capt. Connors said that taking
marijuana causes “loss of reasoning powers and
unconsciousness.”
Patrolman Jerome Mclntee of the 16th precinct
said he thinks the new law is “great.” Mr. Mclntee,
Editor of The Blue Line a Buffalo police
publication, feels the average patrolman is happy
with the law, because it comes down hard on the
heroin pushers, and is still relatively lenient on
marijuana. An immediate effect of the law is that
major crimes are going down, he said, pointing out
that 75% of all crime is commited by drug users to
support their habits.

The Sheriff’s Department has declared the law a
good one, but one that is far from perfect. A

State pays for striptease of
Hayes and Foster greenery
Nudity is the “in look” on campus this year.
You won’t find this fad in Vogue or Seventeen
because the nude look refers to the removal of ivy
from Hayes and Foster Halls.
The nudity is the result of a $94,900 project
granted by the state for the restoration of the two
buildings. According to Richard Sebian, Grounds
Construction foreman for the University, the ivy was
originally planted 40 or 45 years ago after a
campaign to give the school an ivy league-type
status. Over the years the ivy has grown. Mr. Sebian
explained that it adhered to buildings by clinging to
the fissures in stones and mortar. Compounded with
the normal weathering processes, these fissures are
forced to expand, thereby weakening the edifice.
Deterioration has become critical enough to
necessitate repair. Joseph Carlini, foreman for
Raymond E. Kelley Contractors, describes the
situation: “We caught it just in time. If the job were
not done now, it would become a major problem.”
A major repair would involve the replacement of
fallen stones and rebuilding of bulging, weakened
walls. Such repair is extremely costly. Thfe present
job requires pointing (the plugging of masonery that
has been cracked away), and is much less severe.
.

SA votes to fund Sub-Board effect this semester

Executive committee meetin

'Student Association (SA) voted Monday to give
Sub-Board I $280,000 with the possibility of
increasing that allocation by $20,000 for the
Scholastic Housing Corporation. The increase would
occur if Sub-Board ‘dacidps'at its meetip&amp; tomorrow
to continue-funding the corporation.
The $20,000 spurred considerable debate after
Sub-Bcprd

the
housing corporation.
Sub-Board borrowed
Ms. Washburn pointed out that Sub-Board was
forced last year to use the money it had already
allocated to Scholastic Housing for debts incurred by
such financial disasters as the Buffalo Folk Festival.
If the money is not repaid Scholastic Housing could
sue Sub-Board for not meeting its contractual
agreement, she said.
This came as a surprise to most of the executive
committee who had believed that the $20,000 was
intended for new ventures. Some executives
questioned whether the contract between Scholastic
Housing and Sub-Board was binding.
‘

to•

Contract questioned

According the SA Vice-President Dave Saleh,
the contract as judged by the attorney for Sub-Board
is loosely worded and not binding. Conversely,
another attorney said the contract was binding and
could be used “to nail Sub-Board against the wall,”
according to Ms. Washburn.
Scholastic Housing was set up two years ago to
provide students with housing on a cooperative basis.
Since that time it has been funded by Sub-Board on
the basis that it would eventually generate enough
income to become self-sustaining.
Questioning SA invovlement in Scholastic
Housing, Jon Dandes, President, asked the executives
to consider whether they felt it “appropriate and
obligatory” for student fees to be committed for
projects extending beyond their stay at the
University. He also asked if SA should be bound by
commitments made by past student associations.
-

Mr. Saleh, who, along with Student Rights
coordinator, Cliff Palefsky, voted against the
$20,000 allocation, felt the executive committee was
not sufficiently informed about the corporation to
take any action. He therefore suggested that housing
be viewed as a “separate entity“"with its allocation
dependent upon whether Sub-Board continues

the executive committee had been reviewing
the Sub-Board budget all week-before its Monday
meeting. Besides housing, Sub-Board funds

(UUAB) and health care projects, such as the birth

In other action, Mr. Dandes responded to
Monday’s The Spectrum, which some executives said
had contained “unfair and biased” articles.
“Whatever the papers say, we will be able to leave
office next March, look into the face of any student
and say that we did our best to do the things that are
best for students,” said Mr. Dandes.
-

Procedure denied
Commenting on an item in Monday’s The
Spectrum regarding new procedures to remove SA
officers, Mr. Saleh said such a move was never
“seriously considered.” He also denied there was a
committee to discuss this matter.
He continued that SA has initiated many new
programs, including grievance procedures and a
project called “Operation Identification.” In
addition, he felt SA had become more visible to
students along with demonstrating a high degree of
fiscal responsibility.

DITORIAL

Another three dollars?
On October 3,4 and 5, students will participate in a referendum to
decide, among other things, the future of the Western New York Public
(merest Research Group (WNYPIRG). The basic question is whether
students want to raise the mandatory student fee presently $67 by
$3 to fund the consumer organization. PIRG wants to join the
state-wide network of PIRGs which requires obtaining a $3 allocation
-

-

per student.

No matter where people line up on this issue, all seem generally
agreed that the ideas and methods behind PIRG are a welcome addition
to the battle for consumer's rights. They have many valuable programs
planned, but the question students should ask is: Where will its focus
be? Students cannot afford to support a group that is oriented toward
the city, region or state, nice as that might be. PIRG should
concentrate on student services with a University focus. It would be
unfair for this school's students to carry an unfair burden for a
Buffalo-oriented organization without similar commitments from other
area campuses.
PIRG promises great results from a professional staff and large
programs, but can students afford to subsidize a project on this scale?
The same argument has been rightly lodged against Housing and Health
Care great ideas, but can students afford them? It becomes difficult
to justify the $67 fee by telling a student we will acquire 10 houses five
years from now. Fortunately, Sub-Board is taking steps toward making
those ventures income-offset.
A $3 raise in the fee would also only apply to sophomores, juniors
and seniors, since freshmen already pay the SUNY limit of $70. But
there may be other alternatives to funding PIRG. Can it be funded
from within the present fee? It's a matter of priorities, but some SA
officials have expressed interest in that idea. Could it be funded at
$1.50 or $2.00 per student, instead of the $3.00 "required" by
state wide PIRG? Three dollars is a large chunk of $67.
A voluntary fee is another alternative, although PIRG officals have
said people could request a refund on their $3. This is not a truly
voluntary fee, since students cannot register without paying the full
mandatory student fee. Voluntary means the burden is on the
organization to collect it, not on the students to demand a refund.
There is no doubt that PIRG can make solid contributions in the
consumer field, but on what scale can students afford such a venture?
One or two full-time professionals, office and field expenditures and a
bunch of volunteer students should enable PIRG to function as well as
CAC or the Legal Aid Clinic. If students want to part with another
$3.00 in fees to fund PIRG, they will make that decision in the
upcoming referendum. But as a most heavily-taxed group in relation to
their income, we suspect they will insist on a cheaper formula by which
to fund a consumer rights group.

"Everybody on this campus sits around and bitches about social
action. Here's a chance for them to stop mouthing the words and do
something about it."

Monday, that the University is closed on Christian
holidays. I am thinking specifically' of spring

In the past few years, through the efforts of thousands of students,
the Community Action Corps has reached out to help the Buffalo
community in many shapes and forms. With a broad range of programs
spanning diverse areas from tutoring and hospital work to drug abuse,
day care and aid to the mentally retarded, CAC has been our foremost
and most highly visible good-will ambassador to the outside

community.

Students, actively working for social change on a totally volunteer
basis, have done much to alter the city's stereotyped image of the
"long-haired,
drug-using hippie" student. Such a positive
accomplishment cannot be taken lightly when one considers the height
of animosity between Buffalo and the students they saw as invading
their city just four years ago.
But beyond the good community relations they help foster, CAC
projects represent a vital outlet for those who sit around and bitch
about the shortcomings of society to get off their best intentions and
do something. On the whole this University's students have been
commendable for putting their effort where their mouth is. CAC can
almost be regarded as a social indicator, since its effectiveness has
varied with the intensity and amount of student commitment. When
students turn out in large numbers, CAC is able to expand its number
of projects and the range of each program, and the impact of social
assistance, although difficult to fflafture, is greatly increased.
Let us continue to demonstrate the type of commitment to change
that has made CAC the largest organization of its type in the country.

Editor’s Note: This poem came to me in a
dream after I visited the Governor’s Residence on
the Amherst Campus. A roommate, a friend and I
spent 45 minutes looking for Dewey Hall and got
thoroughly lost. Unfortunately, unlike Coleridge, we
were not wrecked at the time.

Your editorial on Nfedia and Democracy
displays that you can abstract yourself from the
technical job of running a newspaper enough to have
a vision of the theoretical foundations of mqdia.

Exploitation and Oppression.
Communication id media is the only alternative
to technocracy, and is the basis of “free” human
relations or politics. (Everything is one in its being
“related to humans.”)
Nevertheless, recognition of the nature of
“political” media can easily make that media
equivocal and doing continuous violence if it is to
any extent stiflingly formal. The press, to be moral,
cannot permit itself to be used by the right or left to
preclude other alternatives (less structured, more
personal)- for dialog. The media can determine, but it

In Amherst land did Rocky Khan
A stately pleasure-dorm decree:
Where Alf the frenzied searcher ran
Through hallways measureless to man
Designed by I.M. Pei
So twice five miles he ran around
Dewey and Clinton he never found:
And there were posters bright on Lehman Hall’s wall.
Where blossomed many an incense-scented room
And here were puddles round O’Brian Hall,
Encircling muddy flats of ugly gloom.
;

But oh! That deep romantic pit which slanted
Where bulldozers and steam shovels go boom!
A savage place! Confusing and enchanted
As e’er ’neath Lackawana’s smog was haunted
By woman wailing for her long-lost room!
And from the halls, with ceaseless searching seething.
As if this earthy labyrinth were breathing,
A cloud of marijuana smoke was forced
Amid whose swift half-intermitted burst
Lost students vaulted like rebounding hail
Or spaced-out chaff beneath the thresher’s flail
And hit the drunken stumbler and the lurcher
It flung up momently the frenzied searcher
Five miles meandering with a mazy motion
Through Roosevelt the frenzied searcher ran,
Then reached the hallways measureless to man
And sank in tears to fill a lifeless ocean:
And ’mid this tumult Rocky heard their tossed
And anguished voices crying out We’re lost!

The shadow from the dorm ofpleasure
Floated midway in the gloom;
Where was heard the mingled measure
From records in each room.
It was a miracle of rare device.
An ill-lit pleasure dorm with room&amp;of ice!
A damsel with a water pipe
In a vision once I saw;
It was a fair Canarsie maid.
And on her water pipe she played.
Singing of Massapequa.
Could I revive within me
Her hashish and her song.
To such a deep delight 'twould win me,
That with music loud and long,
1 would build that dorm in air.
That ill-lit dorm! Those rooms of ice!
And all who heard should see them there.
And all should cry, Beware! Beware!
Alfs desperate eyes, his floating hair!
Weave a circle round him thrice,
And close his eyes with holy dread,
For he on I.M. Pei hath fed,
Choked on the milk of Paradise.

Mr

know, eh? Then read this.

One contestant, an alumnus named R.W. Rasch,
submitted a cover letter with his song. He wrote;
“Time doesn’t permit me to do much of this sort of
thing, but I did knock out a ballad-type song. As for
the name, well, I called it Old Buffalo. The song
begins;
Old Buffalo old Buffalo
AH that we ask may
The years ofyour future
Be as bright as your past.
,

Musician Goodale and lyricist Botsford are not
likely to become a famous musical team like
Bacharach and David or the Gershwin Brothers.
Critical reaction to a copy of the song, arranged
for the University Glee Club by Henry S. Hendy, has
been mixed. A music student working in the
University Archives blew the dust off the song and
tried unsuccessfully to sing it. v
Among students who have seen the alma mater,
the first reaction is generally hysterical laughter.
Even President Robert Ketter can’t remember how it
goes. No one remembers the last time it was sung,
though some suspect that the 1905-06 academic
year, in which Mr. Hendy put the song in the glee
club’s repertoire, was the last.
O say can you see?
Apparently someone noticed that, like The Star
Spangled Banner and other anthems, the Alma Mater
Song (it has no other title) is very difficult to sing.
Various members of the University community
attempted to scratch out the tune for decades until;
in 1955, the Student Public Relations Committee
announced a contest for a new alma mater and a new
football (we had it then) fight song.

Unfortunately for those who disliked an alma

�Undefeated Bulls take
two from Brockport
Jim Mary and Jim Marzo provided
Buffalo’s three runs.
Bull coach Bill Monkarsh was
ecstatic about his pitching staff
after the doubleheader. “See what
a difference a year makes,” said
Monkarsh. “A year of experience
and maturity and realizing they
have the ability to pitch makes a

by Dave Geringer
Sports Editor

Due to an obvious lack of
hitting punch thus far, the
baseball Bulls have been forced to
other methods to defeat their fall
opponents. Three Buffalo hurlers
held Brockport hitless until the
final inning of Buffalo’s 8-3
second- game victory over the
Golden Eagles. The Bulls took the
opener, 3-1. The sweep raised the
Bulls’ fall won-lost mark to 3-0.
Lefthanders Jim Niewczyk,
Wayne Fry and John Buszka had
held Brockport hitless until
Steve
Brockport’s
shortstop
Turner singled off third base to
lead off the eighth and final frame
of the second game. Mike
McDermott’s home run then gave
the Eagles their only earned runs
of the afternoon. The Bulls had
lopg since wrapped up the
nightcap, tallying eight runs on
just four hits as six Brockport
errors led to six unearned runs for

Sabres action
Sabres fans will be given the opportunity to view their team in
action tomorrow. In an exhibition hockey game Thursday,
September 20, the Buffalo Sabres Rookies, plus a few veterans, will
be matched against the Cincinnati Swords. All proceeds from the
game, to be played at Holiday Twin Rinks in Cheektowaga, will be
given to the University at Buffalo Foundation, for use in the
University's general scholarship fund. The donation for all 2800
general admission tickets is $4. A sell-out game will result in a
$11,200 addition to the scholarship fund. Tickets are still available
today and tomorrow at the Alumni offices, 123 Jewett Parkway
and at the Norton Ticket office. Face-off time is 8 p.m.

Buffalo.
The Bulls used the long ball to
come from behind in the first
contest. Buffalo collected just five
hits from Brockport hurlers Steve
Stamer and Kevin Kelly in the
opener, but four of those were
extra-base blows. Home runs by

great difference in a pitcher.”
Monkarsh admitted that the
Bulls would not be able to depend
on their hitting nearly as much as
they did last year. “Instead of
waiting for the long ball, as we did
last year, we have to go to a
different type of offense,”
assessed Monkarsh. “We have
more team speed this year and our
hitters are more of the slashing
type who can run well. As a
result, we have to resort to
stealing, playing hit and run and
forcing the other team to make
the plays in the field.”
The Bull pitching staff will
take its collective 1.33 ERA to
the mound against Mansfield State
this afternoon in the Bulls’ home
opener at Peelle Field. Meanwhile,
the hitters will attempt to
improve their team batting
average of .192 before facing
Niagara in a doubleheader this
Saturday at the Purple Eagles’
campus in Niagara Jails.

Vice-President Spiro T.' Agnew, under
investigation for alleged bribery, extortion and tax
law violations, has held ‘lengthy discussions” on
voluntarily resigning from his position, the
Washington Post reported yesterday.
An unidentified “senior Republican figure” says
he is "99Vi percent certain” that Mr. Agnew will
resign, after spending four hours with the
Vice-President last week attempting to talk him out
of the decision. The official predicted the resignation
may come this week, the Post said, although Agnew
staff members and supporters were highly skeptical
that the Vice-President would step down. Mr. Agnew
refused comment on the story.
The Senate Foreign Relations Committee
approved Henry A. Kissinger as Secretary of State
yesterday by a vote of 16-1. The lone dissenting
vote was cast by Senator George McGovern, who
said it was a “symbolic protest” against die Nixon
Administration’s Indochina policies.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Suh-Board shutdown

Communications gap

yields near-paralysis
by lan DeWaal
Campus Editor

A total breakdown in communication between the
various Student Associations and Sub-Board 1 nearly resulted
in the cancellation of most Board-funded activities this past
weekend. Subsequent explanations of the events leading up
to the crisis late Thursday
afternoon degenerated into Mr. Goldstein reportedly
informed members of the
finger-pointing with Student associations of the
impending
Association officers and crisis at a
special meeting of the
Sub-Board employees laying Board. “We told them that if

Possible breakthroughs in the elimination of
heroin addiction are currently being tested in three
federally-funded studies by the Psychiatry
Department at the State University of Buffalo. Two
of the studies will experiment with new chemical
agents and the third study will examine the results of
various methods of treatment.

-

Methadone maintenance programs for heroin
addicts have been confronted by the problems of
overdose and resale. A heroin antogonist, naltrexone,
is the subject of the first study. This drug is
supposed to provide a safer replacement than
methadone since it does not produce euphoric
effects and is non-addictive. Zebulon Taintor,
associate chairman of the Psychiatry Department
and major investigator of the studies, said naltrexone
may be “another step down the path to achieving
the goal of preventing heroin addiciton.”
Craving gone

Heroin antagonists such as naltrexone act by
the euphoric effects of heroin. In this
manner they eliminate the physical craving for the
opiate. Methadone frees the addict from craving tlje
drug, but unlilcfe naltrexone, it is addictive and can
become just as difficult to withdraw from as heroin.
Naltrexone “seems to be so free of side effects,”
said Dr. Taintor. He explained that naltrexone is
given orally and talien up by “narcotic receptor
sights," particularly in the central nervous system.
Naltrexone blocks the receptor sights, preventing
them from receiving heroin. The heroin in turn is
metabolised.
Dr. Taintor's interest in the naltrexone study is
“to provide people with a way of avoiding the
continued use of heroin. We are looking for a drug
that will have one action, that is, to prevent heroin
addiction."
Presently there are approximately 200,000 to
600,000 heroin addicts. “There is a fashion to
overestimate real addicts,” said Dr. Taintor. “Young
people, especially black youths in the ghetto, no
longer see heroin as the cool thing to get turned on
to.” He added that since 1969 heroin addiction has
decreased. Barbituate addicition has gone up mostly
because there are “no fancy rehabilitation methods
to help this type of addict.”
blocking

Seeking treatment
Approximately 100,000 addicts seek treatment.
“I have seen people on drugs for 20 years and they
suddenly decide to start a family. These types are
motivated towards rehabilitation,” said Dr. Taintor.
“Unless people really appreciate life, they might not
choose treatment so well.”
Dr. Taintor stressed the need for treatment
centers to make the punitive drug law enacted this
September a constructive means of eliminating drug

addiction.
Naltrexone will be part of a nine-month study
to begin in four weeks: The study will be held at the

�Fee dispute

Clifford Furnas wants
to separate from IRC
by Howie Kestenberg
Speitrwn

Staff I Vriter

A battle over activity fees and
benefits is being waged between
the. Inter-Residence Council and
the Clifford Furnace College
(College D) of MacDonald Hall.
The conflict began during the
summer, when a letter was sent by
College D to their new residents,
asking them to pay a S20
activities fee directly to the
College and to boycott payments
to IRC.
College D hoped it could
arrange to obtain partial IRC
benefits for their non-lRC
members in return for a share of
the College's own paid fees.
Warren Breisblatt, financial
resident advisor of College D, said
students were informed that the
boycott would give the College “a
better bargaining position” in

the University is that which goes
to the SA. The SA then told the
College D staff to send a second
letter to its residents clarifying
that the fee was not mandatory,
but merely a request. The College
obliged and mailed out the
correction.
Mr. Breisblatt explained that in
the past College D relied on
outside contributions procured by
its headmaster Lyle Borst, for
funding its own unique activites
such as lectures and trips geared
to its science-oriented members.
However, that type of financial
backing is not certain and could
not provide the College the
flexibility it would like. It was for
this reason that the financial
request was made directly to its
residents.

Eve assails inaction on Attica

Calling Attica state prison both “inhuman” and
“insensitive,” Arthur Eve, outspoken State
Assemblyman from Buffalo spoke Thursday on the

lack of substantial changes at that institution.
Mr. Eve, appearing before a sparse gathering in
Haas Lounge, directed much of his talk to the
problems confronting the inmates indicted as a result
of the bloody rebellion that took place two years
ago. The Assemblyman is one of the few remaining
activists who were originally involved in negotiating
a settlement of the inmate rebellion.

The Buffalo Common Council, in a move which
Mr. Eve called “amazing,” voted to name last week
“Attica Memorial Week.” Intensive drives in the
Western New York area have been initiated to raise
over one million dollars needed to properly defend
the 61 inmates already indicted. Mr. Eve contends
that the State has spent over S3 million in
prosecuting the inmates, not including the salaries of
staff investigating the uprising that are already on
the state’s payroll.
x
During the rebellion, the inmates presented 28
demands to the administrators of the institution. Of
those demands, eight were not implemented at all,
another five were implemented for the entire prison
population, and the remainder were either partially

�A constitutional amendment outlining new procedures for the
removal of Studeot Assodation officers has reportedly been considered
by a special SA committee. Currently, officers may only be removed
when a recall petition containing signatures of 10% of undergraduate
student body is filed with the SA Office of Elections and Credentials.
Coordinators may not only be recalled through that route but also by
an ‘absolute’ majority vote of Student Assembly members supporting
such an action. The change being discussed would eliminate this
desparity while making it easier to remove SA officers.
Executive vice president Dave Saleh has denied that this change
was being seriously considered.

The Collegiate Assembly has expressed its
opposition to Bernard Gelbaum's plan to trim the
number of Colleges by possibly two-thirds. The
Collegiate Assembly said that Dr. Gelbaum’s
proposal is "insufficiently competent in form, tone
and content to warrant serious deliberative action,”
in a letter addressed to the Academic Affairs Council
Executive Committee of the Faculty-Senate and the
Faculty-Senate Committee on the Colleges.
The proposition by Dr. Gelbaum, Vice President
of Academic Affairs, calls for the reduction of the
number of Colleges from the present number of
thirteen to thfee or four “meritorious” units.
Contending that the reduction would increase the
academic soundness of the Colleges, Dr. Gelbaum
said that the Colleges “would operate in the

Grievance lodged
A formal grievance has been lodged with the
Committee of the Faculty-Senate
concerning Dr. Gelbaum’s approval of the request of
Clifford Furnas College to secede from the Collegiate
Assembly. The Executive Committee was asked to
mediate so that the Collegiate Assembly can discuss
with Clifford Furnas College the reasons for its
secession and to find possible ways to rectify the
situation..
The grievance was filed on the basis that the
Administration’s approval of the request to secede
was tat violation of the laws under which the
Collegiate Assembly operates..
Also discussed was Dr* Gelbaum’s chairing of
the meetings. (The laws of the Collegiate Assembly
state that in the absence of a director, the vice
president for Academic Affairs'shall chair the
meetings.)
The letter argued that the College Assembly felt
Dr. Gelbaum had become acting director in all but
title besides chairman of the meetings. A
clarification of Dr. Gelbaum’s status was requested
in the letter.
Dr. Ketter responded that Dr. Gelbaum had his
support to serve as an acting director and that he had
done nothing inappropriate. This matter is unlikely
to be pursued further since an interim director
should relieve Dr. Gelbaum in the near future.
Dr. Celbaum said the Collegiate Assembly had
made it apparent to him that his presence as'
chairman was less than “exciting” to the Assembly.
He said he was looking forward to the appointment
of the new director.

The letter says that Dr. Gelbaum’s proposal
reflects “mere personal prejudices on the part of its
author.” Additionally, it says that the proposal was
lacking in explanation and was essentially “negative
in tone” due tp the brevity of Dr. Gelbaum’s
document.

Internal review
' The Collegiate Assembly asserted that academic
quality already exists in the Colleges, based upon an
interna) review made by a University Committee
headed by John Halstead. The Halstead Committee
said “the Collegiate System, is making a significant
and valuable contribution to the University.”
Finally, the letter to the AAC Executive
Committee pointed out that Dr. Gelbaum’s proposal
was made at a poor time. The Colleges are to be
reviewed this fall by an external evaluation team to
be selected by President Ketter. Fearing that the
proposal might bias the Evaluation Team in favor of
the “meritorious” units, the letter said: “U is our

within hours the bullet riddled

Official reports from Santiago
indicate that Dr. Allende
committed suicide rather than
surrender to his opponents. In the
face of growing opposition from
right-wing groups over the last few
weeks, Allende had stated
repeatedly that he would not
leave office voluntarily.
Control of the government was
assumed by a four-man military
junta comprised of the heads of
the Army, Navy, Air Force and
National Police.
Dr. Allende had completed
only half of his six-year term.
During this period, his policy of
moving the country toward
socialism met with steady
opposition from the Chilean

of foreign industrial holdings

death came when a photographer
of El Mercuric, a prominent
Santiago newspaper, was allowed
to enter the Palace and view the
body of the deposed leader.
Allende supporters continued
to put up resistence both in
Santiago and the coastal port of
Valparaiso. Rooftop sniping and
isolated rebel strongholds
prompted the junta to declare a
“State of Emergency.” A curfew
was put on Santiago and all
residents were warned to stay in
their houses to avoid the shooting
of innocent citizens. Allende
supporters were warned that they
would be executed if caught.
The position of the military
regime was strengthened last
Thuisday when the moderate
Christian Democrat and the
right-wing National Party
announced their support of the
coup. Together, these two parties
polled nearly 64% of the vote in a
1970 election in which Dr.
Allende received only 32%.
In keeping with their pledge to
steer the country away from
socialism, the junta broke
diplomatic relations with Cuba.
Officials in Havana expressed fear

A housing shortage in Buffalo is affecting the
foreign students on campus. This year about 70
foreign students might be literally left in the cold,
due to inadequate housing facilities. These students
have come from as far away as Migeria and Taiwan.
Frances Pruitt, the acting director of the
Foreign Student Office said even married couples are
included in the group. She also noted that if foreign
students were forced to leave the University because
of the housing shortage, a “valuable asset to the
University community” would be lost. Foreign
students make good tenants because as Mrs. Pruitt
says “They are usually serious about getting a college
education and as such, are generally very studious
and quiet.”
In addition many of these students have never
experienced winter conditions before and the
hardships they are now facing will undoubtedly
become more complex with the onset of the colder
weather. None of these students have cars. Therefore
the availability of a bus service or housing within
walking distance of the University is necessary.
On Jamacian freshman who could find
accomodation only in the downtown Buffalo area,
confided that after two weeks he was still finding it
difficult to locate bus routes and transfer stops and
follow bus scheduls that would bring him to campus

Temporary housing
Many returning Foreign Students are being
housed by friends and collegues, but these
arrangements are on a temporary basis and the
eventual housing prospects are reportedly not
hopeful.
The Foreign Student Office has helped foreign
students find suitable accomodations in the past and
Mrs. Pruitt noted that people of the Buffalo area had
responded very generously to this need for housing.
This year the closing of the Allenhurst and Tower
dorms as well as the increase in the number of
University students has made the problem more
serious.
The housing problem does not only apply to
foreign students. The Housing Office admits to a
waiting list of 300 students. In addition 450 students
are cramped into triples this year. But as one student
pointed out, “Adjusting to an unexpected and
difficult situation is made even harder when one is a
stranger and culturally alienated.”
Anyone who can help in any way with providing
homes for foreign students or who have apartments
to rent or to sublet, can call the U.B. Office of
Foreign Student Affairs for more information. The
number is 831-3828.

Reform services availablefor
Jewish High Holiday worship

The High Holidays may take
on a new significance this year for
Reform Jewish college students in
the Buffalo area.
It will be the first time that
Reform services will be available
exclusively for college students on
Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New
Tear, and Yom Kippur, the Day
of Atonement. Previously,
Conservative,
Orthodox and
Chassidic services have been
offered for Holy Day worship, but
options were limited for Reform
students who chose not to attend
these types of services. Although
Reform temples in Buffalo have
always opened their doors to
out-of-town students, many have
felt
uncomfortable and
dissatisfied with this arrangement.

As it turned out, a simple phone call to the GSA
"What's the story with your allocation?"
revealed that $45,000 had been allocated by the
GSA last spring, a fact Sub-Board's high-paid
Business Manager certainly should have known.
However, while Messrs. Blumenkrantz and Goldstein
certainly must bear a large part of the blame, we
must ask why the SA, which provides the lion's share
of money to the Board, has not approved its
allocation by now, in mid-September, when it should
have been done last May.
Most SA members are strongly against
Sub-Board's large monetary commitment to
Scholastic Housing, and there is little doubt that
withholding the allocation was intended as a
powerful political wedge against the Board to
abandon housing. Regardless of the merits of this
argument, fostering a fiscal emergency by
withholding money is not the way to influence
policy. But it symbolizes the fact that both the
student axxociations and Sub-Board operate in their
own worlds, issue memos and talk past each other;

Executive Director Steve Blumenkrantz, one of
the few rational minds associated with the Board,
has stated his goal to make Sub-Board totally

to pay for their costs
by the time he'departs next
spring. Once this is accomplished, the Board will not
need a $16,000 Executive Director, who is
admittedly a very expensive crying towel for
organizations frustrated by the politics of the Board.
To achieve his goal, Mr. Blumenkrantz has
announced that he will take over the day-to-day

hopefully not antagonize its groups with undue
interference.

We are skeptical. If the Board actually does
allow Mr. Blumenkrantz a free hand in running the
show, if budget ceilings are set and internal priorities
are left to the groups, and if the desirable goal of
income-offset is actually approached, then the
money and thus the politics will be taken out of
Sub—Board. Many Sub-Board groups, such as the
publications and housing, are already oh the way to

This is typical of the Board's sticking its fingers
where they don't belong. Isn't it reasonable to
assume that members of UUAB or the publications
have more expertise in their particular area than a
bunch of managerial bureaucrats? Yet the Board's
callous attitude is epitomized by a typical Jenny-ism
'This is a managerial-level decision; we make the
decision, you work out the details."

Sub-Board should insist on fiscal responsibility
from its members, but should keep its hands out of
policy. They should inform each group of its budget
ceiling
how much money is available to them
and allow each organization to set its own internal
priorities. This is the only acceptable route.
Otherwise, petty politics and bureaucratic
intervention which lacks expertise will bring about
the ruin of both the Board and the activities it

November 1. We in Progressive Labor Party demand
that this speaking engagement be cancelled, and urge
everyone to write and phone the Student
Association Speaker’s Bureau to insure that our
student fees are not used to help this racist
propagate his views. If the Speaker’s Bureau insists
on bringing Maddox, we should organize to give him
the reception he deserves.
According to Current Biogoraphy, Maddox first
hit the headlines following passage of the 1964 Civil
Rights Act, when he refused to serve blacks in his
Atlanta restaurant. He supplied patrons,, with
axehandles to chase away three black students
attempting to enter the place and came out waving a
gun. He finally shut down the restaurant rather than
allow it to be integrated and proceeded to sell several
thousand dollars’ worth of “souvenir” axehandles
known atf Phkrick drumsticks “t&lt;$ symbolize the
segregationist’s method of keeping the Negro in
line.” On this platform he ran for governor
supported by the Klu Klux Klan.
Here are a few quotes from this louse: “one
drop of Negro blood in your family could push it
back 3,000 years in history.” “God set up the
boundaries of the habitations of poeple by continent
and I think that our troubles today have been
brought about by integration.” “I’m sure there is
discrimination and that’s part of America's

.

Why has Sub-Board failed to be a successful
coordinator of student activities and disbursing
agent of student funds? Because it ia too political.
During the budget battles every summer, its ugly
political nature is highlighted for all to see:
back-scratching and back-slapping in-fighting. But
what comes forth most clearly is Sub-Board's
megalomaniac desire to set policy for all its
organizations; its distorted view of itself as ann
ITT-like, all-powerful corporation with its octopus
tentacles reaching into every group. Totally ignoring
the fact that organizations cannot effectively be run
from a centralized bureaucracy, Sub-Board has
antagonized every one of its groups by its internal,
infernal meddling.
Sub-Board Treasurer Jennifer Washburn in
particular has systematically alienated every segment
of the student body, including her own political
colleagues. In the name of “management," she and
the Board have tried to tell the publications and
UUAB how to most efficiently operate, despite the
fact that they have no expertise in these areas. This
summer's UUAB budget hearings were a classic
kangaroo court. Instead of telling UUAB that X
amount of money was available, and to adjust its
programs accordingly, the Board slashed five specific
arts programs which were not money-making
because they felt this is what students want. Artistic
merit and student preference surveys were totally

Most students aren't very interested in reading
articles about Sub-Board. Yet if sub-Board had shut
doWrv all activities as threatened last Thursday, they
would have cared: no publications, no concerts and
movies, no craft center, no Norton Hall activities.
Such a situation was narrowly averted late
Thursday afternoons in a crisii which highlighted the
total lack of -inmunication between Sub-Board and
its six constituent student governments. The Board,
$14,000 in debt, had received no allocation from
any SA except Millard Fillmore College's. With no
other funds promised, Business Manager Lester
Goldstein explained, it would be too risky for the
Board to borrow any more money from a bank, and
Executive Director Steve Blumenkrantz thus issued a
memo for immediate shutdown.
Mr. Goldstein was urged to call the SA and GSA
and explain the urgency of the situation, but he
insisted all had been made clear at the last Sub-Board
meeting. Not surprisingly, members at that meeting
claimed that no urgency was communicated, if they
remembered the topic being discussed at all. SA
officials indicated privately that if they had known a
shutdown was imminent, of course they would have
passed an emergency allocation. But rather than
attempt a last-minute reconciliation, Mr.' Goldstein
stood by his "shut it down" memo. He would calmly-

To the Editor:
It is high time that someone drew an accurate
portrait of Student, Association President Jon
Dandes. It seems that Mr. Dandes, in his relentless
fervor for acceptance into medical school, has
become a cringing, psychophantic POLITICIAN
more concerned with his career plans than with
serving the interests of students. It’s a well-known
fact that because his grade are below the average for
med school acceptees, Mr. Dandes' game plan is to
“get tight” with President Ketter to facilitate his
being admitted to U/B’s medical school, the only
[dace where he has even a slight chance of getting in.
Ain Miller was right on target when he spoke of
Ketter and Dandes “shctwing everyone what good
buddies they were.”
Even more alarming is that Mr. Dandes will
probably gain acceptance to Buffalo med school
with a stongly worded letter from Dr. Ketter. After
all, when in the past few years can we rcmeber a
student official so conservative in politics and style
than the present SA President; Such behavior is
welcomed by Hayes Hall, especially by Dr. Ketter, in
the. same way that a strong Presidential
recommendation will be welcomed by a medical
schoool admission’s board.
At the same time, some dedicated, hardworking
and INTELLIGENT student will find himself with a
rejection slip. Is this fair?

To the Editor (in HIS mediator role).

feedback

Underneathe the furious and ironic nonsense
which permeates Barry Kaplan’s Watergate, et. al.
assertions in the form of ultimate criticsm, lies the
soul of a totally Americanized mythological
character. His final assertions, after a wasteful
enumeration of the documented and obvious is to
“restore law to this country.” Of course, his
assumption is that it ever existed in our era, or in
America’s social and economic history.
Di law (justice, social rights, and other western
culture idealisms), exist for Johnathan Jackson, The
Harlem 6, victims and witnesses of My Lai, May Day
demonstrators, American blacks, woemn, gays, poor
whites, socialists, Chicanos, libertarians, and, and,
and? Is there, within the view of American
symbology, mythology, normativism, stratification,
captialism, racism, sexism the most latent prospect
for the recognition and respect for their rights under
law? Not as the laws and norms are presently
constituted. Nixon’s atrocities, now before the
public eye are merely symptomatic of the Utter
impoverishment and decay of the American culture
(based as it is on the economic-social sphere). The
end is nor, should not be to reconstitute law, to
reconstruct the culture, but to detonate our faith in
that culture and build anew on its ashes.
Mr. Kaplan, friends
All of us are victims of
that culture, some moreso than others. To repair the
part we must reconstruct the whole in context and
form as well as in content.

Lemer Column

by Max Lemer

MONTGOMERY, Ala,
Here in the heart of
the heart of the South, a stricken man, target of an
assassin’s bullet the last time around, is both
spending and husbanding his retained vigor, planning
although
to run for governor again next year, and
quite candid about what it means to be a paraplegic
not about to be counted out for the next
presidential round in 1976.
When you pay a call on George Wallace, you
find that the Confederate battle flag still flutters
over the Statehouse dome, as it did when Jefferson
Davis took his oath here in 1861 as President of the
Confederacy. Inside, below the rotunda, is a
memorial to Lurleen Wallace, who was governor
from 1967 to 1968 in her husband’s place.
The whole capital is George Wallace’s fortress
against an outside world which is at once his target
for verbal attack and is caught between its old
skepticism of him and its new wooing. But it is an
open fortress. Politics in the South is a very personal
affair. The outer chamber of the governor’s office is
crammed full of people waiting to see him, to shake
his hand and have their photos taken with him, to
urge his help or hindrance on some bill, to bespeak
his favor as suppliants for some appointive job.
1 started by ribbing Wallace a bit about being
the beneficiary of the detente wifh China because of
the reports that he was having acupuncture
treatments. But it was a lame opening, since his wary
political mind saw the irony, but also the possible
political pitfall for him. His doctor, Jie stressed, was
a Chinese who had long practiced in America, and
besides, he couldn’t be sure whether his
improvement since a recent operation was due to the
acupuncture or other treatments.
After this failed gambit, he went on to his views
about the Nixon-Kissinger detente policies and the
SALT talks, which (not surprisingly) were hostile. I
suspect that Alabama is not a state which will give
Henry Kissinger in his new post his highest
popularity rating, and SALT is a four-letter word
-

here.

Wallace pulled out all the stops; America must
be the first world power, not the second; the
Russians have never made an agreement they have
kept, and only “meaningful inspection” can give
reality to one now; nuclear parity would itself be
dangerous, but, we have actually fallen behind; it is
all very well to try for relations of trust with the
Russians, but don’t turn your back to them while
you do; we won’t get a real meeting of minds with
them until our next generation and the next Russian
generation comes into power which will put
consumer goods ahead of expansion. (He didn’t say

how our new generation would achieve power it the
American hard-liners like himself pave the way for
their Russian hard-line counterparts to win power.)
How did he enjoy having Sen. Kennedy speaking
on the same platform with him at Decatur? Well,
comes the amused reply, much of Kennedy’s speech
read as if it had been written in Decatur. What
strikes a visitor most sharply is his scarcely
concealed, almost small-boyish delight at having all
his old political rivals and enemies wooing him. His
constituents must enjoy this, too.
The way he puts it is always in terms of the
the insulted and
people of Alabama and the South
the injured. It is they who have suffered (their
suffering and comeback is “one of the great epics of
American history”), it is they who were despised by
the liberals and are again being wooed. Wallace’s
sense of satisfaction at the new line of the
Democratic National Committee, and of the Senate
liberals who visit him, comes through strongly.
So does his warning about the party’s future. If
the Democrats again surrender to their “exotic
left-wing noisemakers” they will show that “they
don’t know enough to come in out of the rain.” This
is pretty clearly a strategy for getting out of the rain
himself and coming into the comfort and warmth of
the national Democratic Party. He is proud of the
’

—

inroads he made into the regular
primaries in 1972, especially in a Northern state like
Michigan. He thinks he might have carried even New
York. Hence he isn’t at all surprised at the current
talk of a Kennedy-Wallace or Wallace-Kennedy ticket
in 1976.
I asked why he had resorted to the race issue in
his anti-Patterson campaign for the governorship. He
denied he had ever used the race issue, but had only
argued that the federal government (including the
Supreme Court) was coming into Alabama, trying to
run things. It is hard to know how genuinely he
believes this was not an appeal to the racial feelings
of his followers. But clearly he is off that line now.
He is derisive about the Northern liberal press which
defended the appeal to a “higher law” in the leak of
the Pentagon Papers. The South today, he says, still
feels it has had a bad deal from the courts on the
issue of free choice in schools, “but we abide by the

liiw.”

This is the new George Wallace, still proud of
tradition of which he was part,
the Populist
surprisingly moderate on desegregation and other
domestic issues, a hard-liner on foreign policy, busy
al his job, gallant about what fate did to him,
determined to be' reckoned with, whether in the No.
I spot or the No. 2 spot in 1976.

“I’m Gelling Darn Tired Of Your Wanting
Clean Air
And Clean Government”

Andante
by Stanley Dayan

Social change which benefits the people can
only take place when the people want it. It’s that
simple, it’s that difficult.
All one needs do is think a minute about
modern organization. It’s extremely complex, and its
chains of decision and execution are very involved. If
just the clerks and secretaries of an organization are
against some policy, it is very hard for the higher
level people to be effective. In this case the legal and
established control is resisted by the people who are
supposed to do as they are told. But the case of the
radical without popular support is far worse. He is
obstructed by the lower and the higher levels in his
programs.
It is well to remember that power ultimately is
in the hands of the people. If the people are
brainwashed then the society functions brainwashed.
If propaganda has been effective, a radical who
speaks out against it will be harassed by the very
people he is trying to help. Ergo, propaganda is the
way that our modern socieilies are controlled.
The power struggles within our society
postivitely All the air with lies and manipulative
propaganda. There is no accepted philosophical
starting point. It is not easy to get at reasonably
universal prescriptions. Are we brainwashed also? Or

more likely, are we just an extreme reaction to the
brainwashing?
Lies all around us, complex organization which
requires popular support to even function. The
result? Society is irrational and autonomus, i.e
capricious. We have no solid traditional beliefs any
more by whick we could judge the relative
rationality of an action. Yet the mass is so heavy it
requires quite close agreement among people for it
even to move. We can’t agree on traditional ideas
most are not really valid any more. On ideas rising
out of socio-economic conditions? Obviously, but
who really understands what conditions produce
what idea?
As far as I can discover, no one really
understands what is going on. It seems as if our
society is a crazy autonomous organizm. It is my
newly-arrived-at opinion that if one wanted to
change our society, he would have to create a system
of propositions which would be taken popularly
the truth. Not verbal truth; truth in the sense that
these propositions would be taken for granted.
Can you imagine that: a new set of propositions
which construction workers and schoolteachers and
waiters and nurses would take for granted! It might
happen. But you can bet your bippy no group small
or large has a defintive say. As for the power elite,
they are not teaching the horse to jump a hurdle;
they are doing all they can just to stay seated.

Canadian painting displayed
in Gallery 219; Ron Martins
‘Bocour Red a highlight
9

by Erich Rassow
Spectrum Art Critic

“The origin of color is body. The origin of mind is body.
Can you put a piece of blue sky in your pocket ?
"

Ron Martin is one of the artists included in the group
show Recent Canadian Painting and Sculpture in Gallery
219 of Norton Union. The show, which includes
hand-picked selections of abstract Canadian art and
sculpture, is one of the most important ever to come to
Gallery 219.
On view until September 28, the show of Recent
Canadian Painting and Sculpture includes, in addition to
Martin’s painting, work by these artists: David Bolduc,
Robin Collycr, Graham Coughtry, Robert Hendrick, Robin

What makes Ron Martin so amazing is that he is
definitely not an abstract expressionist, in the traditional
sense, because the overall effect is one of an
undifferentiated intact surface area rather than discrete
runs and placements of energy.
When he began the Conclusion and Transfer paintings,
Ron Martin started his career in earnest. These were
hard-edge color abstractions which he duplicated. All that
was required was that the copy be a faithful representation
of his original painting. In his own words:
‘Conclusion: Non-objective painting.
Being thing that stands on its own.
Appearance
Transfer:
of being thing that stands on its own
as copy.
The discipline he was involved with was that art is art by
virtue of its context. Marcel Duchamp made this apparent
when he placed found objects (ready-mades) in museum
situations. Similarly, the act of painting has an art
significance only when the painting is art and not fire
hydrants or houses.
”

Decision
But this process is arbitrary in that a decision has to
be made as to what constitutes art before the painting
process can be accepted as art painting. Ron Martin
emphasized this by making an abstract painting which
defined the terms of the rendition as art and the process,
therefore, of the copy, followed as art painting. In other
words the Conclusion and Transfer paintings were artificial
knowledge.
This led to the world paintings which explored the
inner dynamics of being and appearance. He noticed that
when he put a thick color mark on paper or canvas and
moved around it, the appearance of mass and shape
changed. The mind created a causation upon which the
body acts. So, too, did relationships change as the body
responded to a given alignment of marks.
Around 1969-70, he was experimenting with a series
of watercolors which dealt with parallel brush strokes. He
placed a set of diverging lines across the parallels and saw
that you could experience them under a directional
perspective like receding railroad tracks, or by moving*
around, the diverging line began to weave in and out of the
parallel lines.
'

Mackenzie, Roytlen Rabinowitch, Gordon Rayner, Daniel
Solomon, Joy Walker and Tim Whiten.
My concentration will be exclusively on this painter

because I feel his presence, as exhibited by the painting
Bocour Red, is an event of special significance.
It affords an unusual opportunity for the people of
Buffalo to become acquainted with a man whose art
presents the most assured attack against the major
problems facing color field abstraction today. In sum, the
broad fields of subtly variegated color abstraction are
criticized because they appear empty of personality and do
not have much visual strength.
Ron Martin is quite the opposite. He was selected by
the arrangers of the show, Jeffrey Wechsler and Sharon
TUI, because his painting is literally scratching through (a
tight rendition of surface interest). We are, finally, stunned
by the energy with which the underlying raw canvas leaps
out as if the scoured markings and knuckle trails welting
the red surface are electrified wire ends piercing accreted
blood.

Division
These observations, changes in shape and perspective,
lent themselves to the complex variability yet simple
structure of (for want of a better analogy), the
meticulously quilted World painting?. Martin categorized
these paintings into stages of progression: the flowering
stage, the transitional stage and the rotting stage.
The only intuitive part of the painting construction
came about before the application of paint, when he
pencilled-in numbers on the boxes which were preassigned
as to color choice and position. What occurs is a very
complex interweaving in the case of the “flowering”
paintings and an apparently random and confusing over-all
effect in those which are “rotting.”
Dualism
Because of the disparate perspective of the individual
boxes, an undulating volume is created that is both flat
and round on the picture plane. These World paintings
concern mind over body because the body orients itself, in
various ways of discovery, to an unassailable mental
system. Martin felt that this relationship is not lasting, for
the intellect should only reflect on the body. This
eventually brought him to the one-color paintings.
The one-color paintings are a confirmation of the
body. Whereas the World paintings were constructed
synthetically eliciting a bodily response, Bocour Red (on
loan from Toronto’s Carmen Lamanna Gallery) is a given
quantity of paint substance that the body explores on
canvas as a process of experience. Mental articulation, in

Bocour Red

—

October 1971

this case, is subsequent to body manifestation. Ron Martin
views color as place and, in fact,_ claims no special
disposition as to choice of color.
There is, however, an uneasy resolve to this color
neutrality because as each color changes in the series a se*
of denoted color expressions emerge. We can also see
certain advantages being gained by using colors which
underscore the marking on the canvas with strong
after-image effects as is the case in Bocour where the
exposed canvas assumes a Rowing green tinge against the
red and creates streaking mental flashes.
Distillation
His distillation of the painting experience has been
extracted still further by his most recent work, his Bright
Red series. The entire series of these paintings is designed
with a rigid operational procedure. Each painting is the
same color, and like the one-color series, the same amount
of materials are being used although the coloring pigment,
bocour red, has been halved.
The size of the painting is still in constant relationship
to the extension of his right arm (84” x 72”) and each one
had a 15-minute time limit for painting completion. The
result of this process has yielded 24 Bright Red paintings
which are an exact record of what took place at the time
of creation.
They are a summation of everything Martin has
agonized with: the synthesis of the real (color used as
physical substance) and ideal, the extended presence of the
body in the world, change as illustrated by the varying
calligraphy of marks, continuity in the way portions of
unpainted canvas puff out unremittingly in a sky scene of
gradual occurence and finally the unified character of the
coloration in the painting?.
Each painting is unique, reflected upon with slight
emendations and undertoned with the coursing blood flow
of life.

The Pocket Back (Bach on Harmonica) GeorgeFields
I found him tying near death in the war-torn streets of Austria,
1944. lohann Sebastian Bach, blood climbing over his chin, his once
creative fingers crushed like tin-foil by the Naze invaders. He gurgled,
churned, cried, prayed, parted his eyelids in a desperate stare, pupils
filmy with yellow pUs. I kicked him in the face;
I hated Bach. I hated henf for what he had let hemself become, I
hated the record companies that made millions off his name because he
refused to end his solitary life as a recluse. I hated my junior high
school music teacher who made us memorize his birthdate. I hated the
girl with the prematurely developed breasts who sat in front of me in
that music class.
But I kept Bach alive, barely. I dragged him to my tent, giving him
just enough food and medication to endure any torture my mind could
conceive. When I beat him he made no sound, screamed no pain. He
didn’t care to live or die, and his expression never changed until the
night he heard music drift intojhe tent from the officers’ club.
The next day I put a scratchy recording of one of his sinfonia on
my victrola; he smiled and looked up just as I put my HOner blues
harmonica to my mouth and amde a useless, out of tune, out of key,
and out of rhythm attempt to play music. He quivered and 1 played
louder, moving closer to him as he strained to concentrate on the music
in the background. As I hit the most dissonant chord on the harmonica,
Bach could endure no longer, he passed
the record started to skip

That was a long
time ago. I’ve bummed
around since then, was
a bartender in Iowa, a
barber in Idaho, a
baby-sitter in Ithaca. I
went to college on the
G.I. bill and in the
Midwest, where my old
harmonica came in
handy on those
unbearable winter
nights, with a couple of
guitars and a six-pack
for entertainment. In
my senior year I
married the woman I
fucked. The next year
the suddenly fell
deathly ill, and due to a
secret life insurance policy she kept, I became independently wealthy.
Now older and lonely, I wanted to leave something behind, a
ffiy basement I set up a
reminder that I wMyheauihn np
sbund sfudio, bought a whole seV oT harmonicas (I later bought the
whole coihpany) and recorded an over-dubbed and well-rehearsed
album of Bach’s works all on my hot honer.
’
There is a major problem though: who’ll buy the record? Classical
music lovers pooh, pooh at harmonicas and what with all the
synthesized Bach goung around today no listener of folk, rock, jazz,
Frank Sinatra, or Stockhausen will want to buy it. I tried to sell it to a
cereal company as a prize they could use in between the cardboard and
oats; they never wrote back. I tried to slip it into a discount rack in a
record store. They thought I was trying to cheat them out of an
expensive sale and had me arrested. I’d call up listener response radio
shows and try to sneak a few seconds off the album on before they cut
me off. They always cut me off.
I console myself with the thought that this is the fate of all unique
artists in an age of mass conformity. I will remain, as my now-beloved
Bach once did, a recluse with my dreams of fame, childhood, and that
girt in my junior high school music class.

Survey shows baseball
fans behind Aaron

by Louis Harris

1973 The Chicago THbune

A substantial 68 per cent of all baseball fans say
they are “rooting for Hank Aaron of the Atlanta
Braves to break Babe Ruth’s record of 714 lifetime
home runs.” Only a small, die-hard 9 per cent “hope
he’ll fall short,” while another 18 per cent “don’t
care either way.”
In a special Harris Sports Survey of 1768
baseball fans across the country, the overwhelming
sentiment of the public is behind Aaron. There is
little evidence of nostalgic resentment over Babe
Ruth’s long standing memory as the “king of swat”
being violated by the Atlanta Braves’ oytfielder and
even less that white fans are averse to a black athlete
breaking the home-run record.
The fans’ opinions on Aaron are sharp and
decisive:
By a massive 87-5 per cent, most agree that
“Hank Aaron has been a great player for years, and
it will be good to see him get his due recognition
when he breaks the lifetime home run record”
Modest and not flamboyant, Aaron has earned a
reputation among fans as “a gentleman” and “a
credit to the game,” as many put it.
By 92-3 per cent, baseball fans also feel that
“nearly all records are there to be broken sooner or
later and the lifetime home-run record is no
exception.” Much as the 4-minute mile before it, the
mark of 714 lifetime homers, most fans feel, was
bound to be broken.
Fans think Aaron has been favored in his
attempt by “longer seasons and a livelier ball to hit,”
a 60-17 per cent margin. The Atlanta
a view held
outfielder has gone to bat over 2000 times more
than Ruth in compiling his home-run record.
By the same token, by a narrow 39 to 35 per
cent fans express disbelief in the claim that “Aaron’s
feat is greater than Ruth’s because pitchers have
much more advantage over hitters today.”
-

—

-

with the statement that they have been “shocked to
hear people are rooting against Aaron because he is
black.” Hank Aaron reportedly has received a
quantity of hate letters expressing resentment that a
Mack might break Ruth’s record.
These survey resuhs clearly show the writers of
such letters are a small minority of all baseball fans,
and are in no way representative of anything
approaching majority attitudes.
The prevailing mood among baseball fans over
Aaron’s impending record-breaking feat is both
charitable and philosophic, spiced with real
excitement that has helped baseball:
By 68-24 per cent, a majority of fans reject
the claim that “Babe Ruth was such a great player, I
hate to see anything make him look not as great as
he was.” Fans simply do not see it as a choice,
testing their allegiance between today’s Hank Aaron
and yesterday’s Babe Ruth.
The heart of fans’ thinking is expressed in the
lopsided 90-5 per cent majority who feel “it is
foolish to choose between Babe Ruth and Hank
Aaron, because both have been great baseball
players.”
Partly as a result of heightened interest in
Aaron’s breaking the record, plus the appeal of the
American league’s designated hitter innovation, and
the tightness of the races in both leagues, there has
been a turnaround in the longstanding drift away
from fan interest in baseball. All 2034 sports fans
surveyed were asked:
“Compared to a couple of years ago, do you
find you are more interested in big league baseball,
less interested, or about as interested as you were
then?”
-

-

Interest in Baseball

-

On the race issue, the fans leave no doubt where
they stand:
—: By. a thumping 76rl3 per cent, baseball
followers flatly deny the allegation that “when
Aaron breaks thp record, the day of the white
superstar in baseball will be just about over.”
By 63 to 26 per cent, a solid majority agrees

Obviously, judging from these results, baseball is
on the upbeat. All baseball needs to top this off is
for Aaron to break the record, a feat he has millions
of baseball fans oting for him to do.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

All Sub-Board I activities will not cease today although orders for
shutdown were in effect as fee as 5 p.m. last night. An immediate crisis
was narrowly averted when'Outgoing Graduate Student Association
president Alan Miller informed Sub-Board that the GSA allocation of
$45,000 had actually been approved last spring.
In a letter to all organizations funded by Sub-Board, Executive
director Steve Blumenkrantz stated late yesterday afternoon that
“various student governments have at the present not seen fit to
allocate funds” to Sub-Board, “with the exception of Millard Fillmore
College Student Association. Therefore, we as a corporation, can not
incur any further debt without any source of funds to operate under.”
Business Manager Lester Goldstein explained this would mean the
immediate curtailment of The Spectrum and elimination of Ethos until
allocations were forthcoming from either the Student Association or
the Graduate Student Association. He also stated that UUAB would
have to eliminate most activities and that Sub-Board employees would
be terminated within a week.

Mr. Goldstein stated that both student associations had failed to
inform Sub-Board of an approved allocation and as Sub-Board was now
$14,000 in debt, all monies had to be reserved to meet contractual and
payroll commitments.
However, a hurried phone call by The Spectrum Editor Howie
Kurtz and Campus Editor Ian DeWaal to Mr. Miller revealed that the
GSA had actually approved an allocation of $45,000 last spring, giving
Sub-Board enough money to operate until November and averting an
immediate crisis. Mr. Goldstein, upon being informed of the GSA
allocation, immediately rescinded the Blumenkrantz memo.

reproter said America has gotten away
from the ideal that: “Those who govern are
the servants of the people and not their

masters.”
After relating stories about Thomas
Jefferson and Abraham Lincoln, Mr.
Anderson described the elaborate trappings
of Presidential power and its effects on the
men in the White House. “After four years

Through a free press, said Mr. Anderson,
the Constitution provided a watchdog to
guard the people from the government;
admittedly a poor watchdog, but the best
around. He again quoted Thomas Jefferson
who, though victim of unfair and scurrilous
abuse from a partisan press, said; “If 1 had

Eith all the evangelical fervor of . the
Mormon missionary he once was, Mr.
Anderson illustrated this lawless mentality
by painting in broad strokes and lurid
colors a protrait of Watergate conspirator
G. Gordon Liddy. “What was a man like
that doing in the White House with a
license to violate the law?” Mr. Anderson
asked again and again. As each detail was
added to this picture of governmental
anarchy, Mr. Anderson repeated the
question, more outraged each time.

Some heroes left
Mr. Anderson unbuttoned his collar,
having already taken off his coat and rolled
up his sleeves, and said most of the press
does not do its job. The White House press
corps missed the Watergate story. Capitol
Hill reproters act like Congressmen, State
Department reporters take to tweed jackets
and pipes. But, he added, there are a few
watchdogs left.

of
information under the rationale of
national security. “Because the
government doesn’t give us a true
definition of national security, we
must define it ourselves. There is a
overdassification
of

information
because
the
politicians in power are afraid to
tell people what’s going on.”
He added dryly: “A guy named
Hitler gassed five million in the
name of national security, too. We
can’t have that kind of philosophy
here.” Those familiar with secret
documents,

Anderson said, have indicated that
“seventy to ninety percent of
wh»t's in these secret documents
should be told to the people.”
Because
of massive secrecy

we don’t report something we

time we should report it. We make
mistakes
but our mistakes are

Describing those who don’t

Movies, murders and Batman
This man in the White House, said Mr.
Anderson, saw a Nazi propoganda film of
Adolph Hitler “in a state of exultation”
and spoke German afterward. This man in
the White House misunderstood some
instructions from JeH Magruder and
thought he’d been ordered to kill Jack
Anderson. This man in the White House
was disappointed when he learned
otherwise. And what was a man who would
“rise up like Batman” from a garage roof
and leap on noisy children, a man who
would slap them around and a man who
would receive their angry parents with a
brace of pistols, doing in the White House?
.Roaring with indignation, Mr. Anderson
asked how a man working for the White
House-«*w)d go to the Justice Department
and talk to the nation's chief law
enforcement officer about plotting crimes
like the Watergate break-in. “They plotted
a crime,” Mr. Anderson -shouted, rising

“Now, you’re beginning to see what
Watergate is. It’s not a third-rate burglary.
It's a trespass on our liberty. It’s a
trampling on our rights. It’s an abuse of the
Constitution,” he said. But Mr. Anderson
was bothered most by people who didn’t
want to hear any more about Watergate
and by those who have despaired for the
system.

The system works
Mr. Anderson said Watergate is proof
that the system works. ‘The Founding
Fathers understood that government by its
nature tends to oppress the people,” he
said. “They didin’t know Richard Nixon’s
name but they knew he was coming.”
His&lt; arms flailing, his hands chopping at

Academic Tower
The opening of the North Campus dorms and
the expansion of the Health Science Library
necessitated the conversion of Tower Hall from a
resident' hall into an “academic” building. The
Health Science Library will occupy both the
basement and first floor of Tower.
According to Joseph Stillwell, Director of
Financial Aid, the move is coming at an opportune
time. Over 8500 financial aid applications were
processed for this year and with the creation of the
Basic Opportunity Grant program and the new
tuition waiver policies, this number is expected to
increase.

To expedite the relocation, the Financial Aid
office will be closed Friday, September 21 and
Monday, September 24. Because of the short
duration of this shutdown and the more efficient
operations that are expected to result, Mr. Stillwell
feels there will be no delay in the processing of this
year’s financial aid forms.

Questioned about the effect of
powerful lobbies on Congressional
legislation, Mr. Anderson replied
that the “rich and powerful have

"we can’t take that right away

citizens’ lobbies such as Common

“everyday letters from everyday
people. If the public would

know how they feel on this and
that issue
if they would simply
keep informed
do their duty
write a letter once a week their
Congressman would listen. This
would be the most effective and

“The press is not monolithic,”
he said when asked who will be a
watchdog for the media. “It
speaks with thousands of tongues.

Expressing dissatisfaction with
the White House press corps, Mr.
Anderson asked “where were
they?” before the Watergate story
were
broke. “These people
covering the White House every
day and they were unable to tell
that anything was going on.”
These same correspondents now
write about Watergate every day
“to try to convince people they
were doing a good job all along.”
His column named Haldeman,
Mitchell and the cover-up, he said,
but now he had “other things to
write about.” Objecting to the
correspondents’ rude demeanor at
President Nixon’s first news
conference in five months, Mr.
Anderson favored courtesy and
not insulting the President. ‘The

becomes an area of hot debate

freshman introductory course.
History 100, a study of World War II, was
supposed to have had a flexible scheduling format
which combined traditional lectures with movies and
optional seminar discussions of the course materials.
SARA was stymied because the movies were to have
been of varying lengths and the seminar was not
required. The result was the creation of a “suicidal”
course in which a student would have had to
apparently spend seven hours a week in class.
•
Actually, a student should have registered for
one lecture and one movie showing a week.
However, the schedule printed in the Reporter failed

New approach
“The normal introduction course in history is
‘Western Civilization’ which is not in a student’s
immediate experience,” said Dr. Allen. “World War
II shaped the world they [students] live in. By
understanding the changes that occured and why
they occured, students might better understand our
present situation,” concluded Dr. Allen.
Dr. Allen emphasized three teaching techniques
that have been employed to vitalize the course:
“First, we will be using 20th century insights such as
psychology and sociology to study the subject.
Secondly, we will be using modern media through
the use of the films,” Dr. Allen stated. “Lastly, we
will be flexible in scheduling of assignments.”
The requirements of the course are indicative of
its new approach. Students will be able to chose
between a term paper on a relevant subject that
interests them or a project that will be guided by the
graduate assistants in the course. Projects could
include photography, poems or art work.
For those whose first attempt to register for the
course was defeated by the confusion in the

to distinguish between the required sections of the
class and the optional portions. Consequently, some
students registered solely for the movies and found
that their class cards listed no credit for the course,
while others registered for the full seven hours of
class time indicated in the Reporter.

Disappointing enrollment
William Allen, the course instructor, had
predicted last spring that “300 people would enroll
in the course.” He now feels that under the
circumstances, it was “a miracle” that 65 people
signed up. “Those people must have been willing to

Reporter, all is not lost. Students have only to

The average required time in the course will vary

the length of the film.

give up everything for it,” commented Dr. Allen.
Ironically, this course was to have been a

decreasing enrollments in history courses across the
nation. The course was one of five at this University

Media and democracy
"The government is classifying, withholding and censoring
information the American people should have."
-Jack Anderson at Wednesday's press conference
We live in a time of government secrecy. It is a time when
information is routinely suppressed under a blanket of National
security, too often a euphemism lor political security. While there are
legitimate instances which require secrecy, such as defense strategies or
nuclear secrets, the bulk of classified information is politically
embarassing material which the ruling politicians would rather keep
from the public.
One prominent example is the Pentagon Papers, which contained
nothing injurious to national security, but revealed enough deception
to embarass three successive administrations. Another is the 1970
domestic intelligence plan for bugging and burglarizing antiwar
dissidents. Had the proposal, supposedly justified by radical violence
around the country, been submitted to Congress for emergency police
measures, it certainly would not have emerged intact. It was therefore
politically expedient to keep the plan secret
what they don’t know
won’t hurt them.
The most tragic instance is the secret bombing of Cambodia.
Despite the fact that American tax dollars were being illegally used to
fuel a clandestine war on a neutral country, the President insisted that
everyone was told with "a legitimate need to know." Did not the
Senate Foreign Relations Committee have such a need? Did not the
entire Congress, which the Constitution assigns the responsibility of
declaring war? And what about the American people? We have
dangerously drifted away from the principle that a democracy is based
on an informed populace capable of making intelligent decisions by
majority rule.
The Constitution which conceived this democracy, however, was
besed on an agricultural America of small towns and face-to-face town
meetings. But although modern technology has rendered that model
obsolete, it also provides us with the tool with which to achieve a
well-informed democracy. That tool is the mass media. Today the
media has become" in effect, the fourth branch of government. Without
the media the government cannot effectively publicize either its
policies or its laws.
The media can create news by providing coverage; it can ignore an
event by determining it is not news. It both reflects public opinion and
influences it. It can publish public opinion polls, investigate
government errors, televise Senate hearings. It can provoke, enlighten,
criticize, interpret. Most importantly, it can refuse to accept press
releases and the mouthings of public officials and dig for the real story.
It can often bridge that widening gap between government secrecy and
the public's legitimate need to know.
The list of media exposes is an impressive one: ITT, the milk price
scandal, the Russian wheat deal, Watergate, the Pentagon Papers,
Cambodia, San Clemente, and so on. When the Pentagon was telling us
no Vietnamese villages were being bombed, correspondents were
counting the civilian casualties. All of this is not to portray the media
as lily-white; it is as riddled with mistakes and misjudgements as any
other institution.
What is of overwhelming importance is that in today's
super-bureaucracy, with the government (and particularly the executive
branch) wielding powers over individual citizens that would have made
the Founding Fathers shudder, the media has emerged as a vital check
and an important balance against the abuse of the State. Its power is
the power of public opinion, whether in the form of editorials or
Letters to the Editor. Its responsibility is to make the government
accountable to the public. Whatever criticisms it may earn on the way,
this is no easy task.
And yet the media's potential remains grossly underused. That the
President can avoid holding a press conference at his whim for five
months is a mockery of democracy: he should be required to hold
them every one or two weeks. Candidates for public office should be
required to engage in an hour of televised debate on important issues
every week for six weeks before the election, instead of manipulating
the media through image-building commercials. Only in-depth news
coverage and documentaries on pressing issues can achieve an informed
society; tomorrow's technology may permit voting and referendums
without leaving one's living room.
The strength of democracy is a free flow of information to the
people. We can be content with soap operas and remain fair game for
government tying; or we can more fully utilize the media to make out
leaders accountable to us. It is the choice between 60-second
commercials and intelligent debate. It is the choice between naivete and
the need to know what our government is really doing. It is the choice
between deception and truth.

Guest Opinion
by Alan Miller
On Saturday, September 8, an orientation program was held for
new faculty and professional staff. One part of this program was a
luncheon in the Tiffin Room, which included welcoming speeches by
President Ketter and the Presidents of the Undergraduate and Graduate
Student Associations. I was dismayed to find that a good deal of the
welcoming speeches of President Ketter and SA President Jon Dandes
were spent telling anecdotes about each other and showing everyone
what good buddies they were. 1 was beginning to wonder whether Mr.
Dandes’ speech would ever take on any semblance of seriousness, wlien
he totally shifted gears and announced that there were no differences
between the students and administration at this University and that the
only split existed between the students and the faculty. Mr. Dandes
then began to attack the faculty on points such as late grade
submission. True, there are faculty members who are sloppy in
handling bureaucratic details, at the expense of the students, and more
important, faculty members who neglect their teaching'and contact
hour responsibility. However, is it a proper way to greet and create
harmony with new faculty members by drawing battle lines?
One must remember that in 1970, the only friends and allies the
students had at this University and in the community were the faculty.
Has everyone forgotten the Hayes Hall 45? One should also question a
student leader claiming total accord with the administration when the
colleges are dying, SASU allocations are iq question, and important
a/' J |r&gt;
appointments are b4ing made without student input.
True, we nottf have excellent relatione With the a&lt;!lmintetrati0h,J}u&gt;’
we do not always see eye to eye.
No, on the eve of the first meeting of the University Assembly, it is
imperative that the students and faculty work together. The faculty Can
be of great help to students, in protecting our rights and helping to
keep this University moving forward. The GSA has shown that students
can be a great help to faculty in matters of tentire and reappointment.
For the University Assembly to be effective, one must have a united
Student-Faculty front. If the students and faculty split, the
administration will be free to swing whichever way they want.
It’s fine for a student leader and University President to get along,
but not at the expense of student-faculty harmony. They say politics
makes strange bedfellows. Well, for Jon’s sake, I hope the President
doesn’t snore, and for the students’ sake, I hope Jon doesn’t talk in his

’

brings youback
to the
nostalgia of ‘62
by Boonle Semons
Spectrum Film Criticc

Take a trip back. Get into a hopper head. Lose the
war, civil rights, and Cuban missiles. Don’t anticipate the
war, the Watergate, and the new dope laws. This trip is
purely amnesic.
j
Oh, nostalgia, (the newest opiate of the masses): the
class of ’62, Camels rolled into the sleeves of their T-shirts,
hot cars, bebopping, and Bill Haley. The rasps of Wolfman
Jack on N the ubiquitous transitor dictated as area of
necking, mooning and good, clean fun.
Ronny Howard (remember Opie Taylor?) and Richard
Dreyfuss star in Universal’s latest romp
American
Graffiti. Cast as two from the class of ’62, about to leave
for some ominous eastern college, the camera follws as
they live their last night in the old town. Dreyfuss, as Curt,
is an easy character to understand. Less a victim of his
society than Steve (Ronnie Howard), Curt’s questions are
those of a maturing young man.

Terry (“the toad”) is back at Mel’s drive-in. He’s
sittin’ in Steve’s wheels, listenin’ to the Wolfman, waitin’
for the waitress to rollerskate out with his cheeseburger
and coke, wonderin’ what he’s going to do with that crazy
blonde next to him. Big John (Paul leMat) is cruising in his

John is ready for a run.

Steve’s orientation is strictly social. He’s the class

queen of the cheerleaders.

American Graffiti is an entertaining, funny movie. The

all over a car. Moons are shot out of windows. Even the
local greasers get equal time, as they (with Curt’s help)

brilliantly endeavor to commit atrocities upon a police car.
Written by George Lucas, Gloria Katz and Willard
Huyck, the dialogue captures the mood beautifully.
Expressions like “goofy,” “little dip,” and “copping a
feel” abound. Director George Lucas kept his actors

relaxed and natural; the characterizations are almost
believable. The acting is adequate, with the exception of
MacKenzie Phillips. She is great.
Although the movie is very obviously a Hollywood
fantasy, designed to capitalize on the latest whim of the
public, American Graffiti is a delightful flick. Put on your
bobby sox and cardigans, squeeze into your black Levi’s,
and go check it out at the Boulevard Cinema.

lighter side too; its whimsical facet. Using
hands as an image is trite, obivous and,
well, cutesy. So, unfortunately, is the play
iri part. Its light side is sometimes so light it
simply pales. But those hands are also clear
and
easily recognizable symbols 'of
humanity. This aspect is central to the
show and almost excuses the employment
of such an inescapeably corny effect.

are beautifully presented. A bizarre, highly
suggestive, and effectively horrible scene of
symbolic sexual abuse is thrown at the
audience with raucous sounds and

frantically-moving people.
When Pippin tries to find a career as a
warrior, we see a scene that underscores
the sorrow, stupidity, and ghastly gutsiness
of battle. Black humor emerges as Pippin
talks calmly with the severed head of an
enemy soldier. Incidently, in the course of
this scene the classical “decapitation magic
trick" is used to create the illusion of a
disembodied head. In fact, throughout the
show, a number of stock magic devices are
employed to weave one effect or another.
An emphasis on magic in both the
dialogue and the stage activities is
particularly impressive in that Pippin’s
aspirations to supernatural life are not

The stage is clearly the domain of the
magician. This is important because the

tension between the illusion of the theater
and the reality of extra-theatrical life is a
key theme in Pippin. At times, this tension
is emphasized as the very structure of the
play visibly breaks down. An actress seems
to take over by singing a song that is not
“in the script.” She is even referred to, in

Pink Flamingos is Frank Waters’ sewer classic. A
devastated look into the lives of under-America, a
searing treatise on filthhood, a pretty good movie,
which makes it totally contrary fo its own intent. If
you’re gonna do a movie about filth then it’s got to
be a filthy movie, right! This one’s too slick.
Essentially it’s about Miss Divine (a three-hundred
pound transvestite), her mother (who’s penned up in
a baby crib and has an insatiable appetite for eggs)
and Cotton, Miss Divine’s traveling companion. Oh
yeah, there’s also Krackers who’s a chicken fucker.
(In the advance promotional material it said that the
actor playing Krackers wouldn’t fuck the chickens
unless he could eat them afterward, otherwise it
would just be sensational waste.) These four losers
inhabit an old unwheeled trailer. They’re hiding
from the law. Miss Divine is a murderess.
Well, it’s all about the Divines (the counterpart to
the Louds?) and their battle with Mr. and Mrs.
Marvel. Both claim they are the filthiest peoplcalive,
so naturally they have a filthy contest.
Mr. Marvel runs around whipping his bazooka out

�Theater Department reveals

program for upcoming season
by Randi Schnur

Spectrum Arts Critic

A group of students, professors and other theater
lovers gathered in Harriman Library’s Theatre Studio
last -Friday for a sneak preview of the Theater
Department’s upcoming season. Although the
meeting gave
chairman Gordon Rogoff an
opportunity to introduce new faculty members and
department policies, “the play’s the thing,” and the
semester’s schedule of productions was first on the
agenda.

The season will begin next month with Buchner’s
Woyzeck, directed by Marty Tackel, and a new
production of Genet’s play The Maids. Staged by Liz
Axelrod, a graduate student in the humanities, the
work will be acted in alternate performances by an
all-female and all-male cast.
Slated to open early in November is a double bill
directed by Ward Williamson, which will include
Samuel Beckett’s Play and a work by Harold Pinter.
Ed Bullins’ Gain’ a Buffalo, directed by Ed Smith,
will be presented at the end of the month. New to
the Department of Theater, Mr. Smith is an adjunct
professor with the Black Studies Department and has
headed its Black Drama Workshop.

achieving
greater
flexibility
for the whole
department and developing a more creative work
relationship between students and more experienced
department members, director Rogoffs cast will
include faculty as well as student actors.

Pliable process
Other new developments will demonstrate even
more flexibility. An effort is being made to bring a
better sense of community into the Theater
Department by using more of its members for each

presentation. Therefore, academic credit will be
given for work in more than just the performance
phase of production. This will also help to offset the
shortage of people with the technical skills needed to
staff productions.

We invited a few friends for dinner
and they helped dean up the Genesee River.
With the aid of a few thousand pounds of microorganisms, we’re helping to solve the water pollution problem in
Rochester. Maybe the solution can help others.
What we did was to combine two processes in a way
that gives us one of the most efficient water-purifying systems private industry has ever developed.
One process is called “activated sludge,” developed
~

by man to accelerate nature’s microorganisih adsorption.
What this means is that for the majority of wastes man can
produce, there is an organism waiting somewhere that will
happily assimilate it. And thrive on it.
The breakthrough came when Kodak scientists found
a way to combine the activated sludge process with a trickling
filter process and optimized the combination.
We tested our system in a pilot plant for five years.

Kodak

I*

■rzt

(At Kodak, we were working on environmental improvement
long before it made headlines.) And the pilot project worked
so well, we built a ten-million-dollar plant that can purify
36-million gallons of water a day.
Governor Rockefeller called this “the biggest volunin support of
tary project undertaken by private
New York State’s pure-water program.”
Why did we do it? Partly because we’reIn business to
make a profit—and clean water is vital to our business. But in
furthering our own needs, we have helped further society’s.
And our business depends on society.
We hope our efforts to cope with water pollution will
inspire others to do the same. And, we’d be happy to share
our water-purifying information with them. We all need clean
water. So we all have to work together.

More than a business.

To the Editor.
Thank you for including our facility in your
edition ofSUR VIVAL 73.
I’d like, however, to clarify a few points in the
article. Under 17, a woman must have parental
consent for the procedure. Abortions can be
performed on a woman
17-21, if they are
emancipated minors.
There is no longer a one-week waiting period.
Usually, a woman can be seen at our facility within
four days of making her appointment.
Some npw programs we have instituted at the
clinic include menstrual extractions and pregnancy
testing. Menstrual extractions can be performed on
women who are S-10 days late in terms of their
menstrual period and have a negative pregnancy test.

“We’ve Got To Hold Things Down”

—

What began with the Vietnam War
escalated as the decade of the 70’s
dawned. What is frightening about
Watergate is not the actual break-in, but
the efforts of the highest branches of
government to cover it up. That a President
of the United States could declare, over
television,
that political
nationwide
espionage and slander did not begin with
Watergate only reaffirms the belief that Mr.
Nixon must have been aware of the
Watergate plank. To blandly state that
“everyone does it” and then assert that his
campaign was never guilty of such
wrongdoings is to assume that the
American people are a bunch of fools
(which might be true anyway).

was one based on slander, illegal acts and
flagrant disregard for normal election
procedure. We forget all too soon that our ,

underscores governmental lawlessness.
Mr. Nixon, how did you pay for your

way, how much did we pay for
improvements for your homes? As of now
we are up to $ 10 million. By the way, Mr. .

Underneath the furor and hyperbole
which permeates Watergate remains the
(indisputable assertion that the lawmakers
and public officials arc probably the most
flagrant violators of the laws.
While every election year the cry of
“law and order” is heard, it’s the same
people who cry the loudest that are in the
forefront of a campaign against our civil
liberties. I’m fairly sure that Sheriff Amico
of Erie County will arrest an abnormally
large collection of drug users in the
following months and at the*same time
discover a trillion-dollar dope ring
operating out of the third stall of the men’s
John on the first floor of Norton Hall.
After the election they will be released on
grounds of insufficient evidence or
violation of the defendants’ civil rights, a la
the famous Allenhurst bust of a few years
back.
The American people don’t really give a
damm about the average crooks who hold
office; if they tried to remove every crook
in government, there would be precious
few politicians left to run the country. We
can handle allegations like the ones facing
Vice President Agnew because greed and
financial corruption are everyday facts of
life. We know that nothing will happen to
them; can anyone really remember the last
time a rich or politically powerful man
went to jail? I said went to jail
not just
convicted and given a 10-year sentence to
be served in the confines of the politician’s
home. What we have in this country is two
sets of laws: one for the rich and powerful,
and one for the rest of us slobs. No wonder
that younger people, seeing the hypocrisy
of our drug laws and other manifestations
of government lawlessness, have no
admiration and certainly no respect for the
laws of this country.
The greatest threat has not come from
the traditional sources of lawbreaking, such
as financial corruption, but from the trend
of the executive branch to regard the other
two branches as subordinate, and an almost
fanatical zeal in destroying our basic civil
liberties. Where is it stated in our
Constitution that a President can cpmduct
a war without the consent of Congress?
Where is it stated in our Constitution that
the President has the right to authorize
burglaries in the homes and offices of
private citizens? Where is it stated that the
Department of Defense can lie to its own
citizens in the name of National Security?
Since everyone but the American people
knew about the bombings, especially the

Laotians, Cambodians and Vietnamese, it
would seem absurd to use the label
National Security.

Although we are not opposed to the idea of free,

these jokes often are embarassing examples
of the triteness and cutesiness of the show.
In fact, much of the play’s humor falls very
flat. Still, the importance of the image and
skill with which it points out Pippin’s
escape from a pseudo-celestial end almost
excuses the problems it entails.
Representing the spirit of the stage and
illusion is a character known only as
“Leading Player.” This personification of
illusion, this living, leering shadow is
played by the impossibly magnetic Ben
Vereen. Vereen is a showman with a clear
and explosive sense of the stage and his
audience. As a mildly malicious spirit, he
commands the scenes he is in and holds the
play in place like a beautiful frame around
a painting.
John Rubinstein, as Pippin, is one of
those actors with annoying familiar faces
which has been seen in innumerable
productions but, in spite of this, is
impossible to place. He is able to carry his
role with a style of “innocence” and fun.
The fact that the entire show is not
completely commanded by the impressive
good
Vereen
is
a
indication that

Slippin’
An important flaw in the acting is seen
in petty Buckley’s characterization of
Catherine, a widow with a small boy. While
she is engaged in most of the dialogue, her
manner is artificial. This is fine since she
does so to highlight the artificiality of the
stage. Problem is, when she breaks from
this stage environment and reaches the
pivotal part of the script where sincerity is
important, she does not begin to sound any
less artificial.
It should be noted that a particularly
comic (and sometimes awesome) job is
done by veteran actor Eric Berry in his fine
portrayal of Charlemange.
Pippin is a musical with tunes and lyrics
by Stephen Schwartz. His style hasn’t
changed much since he did the songs for
Godspell. Schwartz has talent for writing
moving and haunting melodies, but the
lyrics often wax insipid. At best, they are
uninspired. If he wpuld collaborate with a
good lyricist, there might be something
worth remembering.
In total, the show is a fun and happy
effort. It is marred by some poor jokes and
silly lyrics. It is strong in its sense of stage
space, theme, music, and romanticism.

Bulls defeat Geneseo in
spite of difficult wind
by Steve Lustig
Staff Writer

Spectrum

In a match plagued by heavy winds, the
State University at Buffalo golf Bulls
defeated Geneseo Monday at the Audubon
Golf Course. The Bulls were led by Jim
Gallery, who shot a two-over-par 72 over
the 6400-yard course. Geneseo was paced
by Scoft MacEwen, who carded a 76.
Gallery, who covered the first nine holes
with a sparkling two-under-par 33, had to
settle for a 72 when he bogeyed the tenth,
11th and 12th holes. “I putted well for the
front nine, but I had trouble on the back
nine,” remarked Gallery. Many of the Bulls
observed that the high winds had affected
their putting as well as their driving.
Mike Hegeman and Rick Buszynski were
also among the leading Bull golfers.
Hegeman shot a consistent 75, while
Buszynski was two strokes back at 77.
Buszynski, who came to Buffalo as a

transfer student from Miami of Ohio, is a
welcome addition to this year’s Bulls

squad.

Coach Bill Dando observed: “I’m
satisfied with the way we played. However,
I know we can play much better.” Dando
noted the team’s depth to be a Bulls strong
point. “We’te very strong with our sixth
and seventh men. Other teams may be able
to match some of our front liners, but
depth in the sixth and seventh men is what
wins matches.”
Geneseo coach Duncan Hinckley, whose
team trailed badly for most of the match,
is hoping for some improved play from his
young, inexperienced team. “We lost six
men last year including our top three
players,” said Hinckiey. “We had only
some
three returnees so we’ve got
rebuilding to do. We played well, but there
is lots of room for improvement.”
The Bulls face St. Bonaventure this
afternoon in Olean before taking on St.
John Fisher in Rochester next Friday.
Also, Buffalo State has been added to the
Bulls schedule, replacing Gannon on
September 19.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950).

The hassles of living together

by Ron Sandberg
Contributing Editor

An increasing number of unmarried couples have
begun to sound the battle cry and with good reason.
Stigmatized and ostracized, the unwed couple is victim of
a barrage of legal traps that make living together far from

blissful.
Although the courts have dealt with the effects of
couples living together (such as illegitimate children), the
notion of “single couples” has never been acknowledged in
our legal system. In over half the states, there are
cohabitation laws that prohibit an individual from living
with a non-spouse. While this law does not apply in New
York, there are others (hat make it illegal for unmarried
couplet to engage in any form of oral sex or sodomy.
Married persons, on the other hand, are free to let their
imaginations run wild.
When it comes to renting an apartment, the unmarried
couple can be refused for moral reasons. If they lie about
being married and the truth is later discovered, they can be
evicted. Ordinarily, if a couple is not evicted, their lease is
frequently not renewed.

Screening process
Although there is increasing social acceptance of
unwed couples, complex and often snarling legal hassles
still remain. For example, insurance companies do not
have a uniform policy on unmarried couples. “We’ll
underwrite anybody,” said John Peeler of Prudential Life
Insurance Company. “Very seldom do we rate unmarried
couples.” However, insurance companies employ careful
screening processes and will not issue policies until their
clients have been recognized as morally acceptable by
Retail Credit, an investigating agency that checks up on
the habits and reputations of prospective policyholders. As
one insurance agent explained: “If the underwriter is a
fuddy-duddjvhe probably assumes that people who live in
sin may have some sort of emotional problem. At the very
least, they’re insecure and immature, and therefore, a bad
risk.”
Accordingly, one couple, Tim and Sharon, were
denied automobile insurance on moral grounds. Neither
e%er had an accident or a traffic ticket. Moreover, they
were later denied home insurance for the same reason.
When they consulted an underwriter on this matter, they
were told they could get a policy only if Sharon was listed
as Tim’s
maid.

New breakthrough

Businesses as well have insurance benefits that extend

only to the employee and his or her married spouse. At the
New York Civil Liberties Union, this might change,
according to Joan Washington, an employee. NYCLU, she
said, -is planning to drop its present insurance policy in
favor Of one that provides for an employee and his or her
unmarried mate. A major breakthrough, this policy is also
being considered by private firms who have received
complaints from their unmarried employees.
A couple’s decision to live together often leads to a

breakdown in family relations. Parents have clearly
indicated that they are still uptight about such
arrangements. For example, 22% of the parents responding
to a questionnaire on -student-related crimes, felt that
cohabitation should be punished. Their reaction contrasted
sharply with the students, with only 5% responding
similarly. It is interesting that parents and students
differed the most in their views of cohabitation on a list
that also included such crimes as draft card burning, pot
smoking and statutory rape. Surprisingly, parents were
lenient when determining the punishment for fornication.
Only 11% of them felt that it should be punished
compared &gt;vith 3% of the students.

Menacing lifestyle
Cohabitation still represents a threat to traditionally
sacred institutions, such as religion and family, according
to Robert Cabral, a sociology professor. Although not
viewed precisely as a criminal act, living together is
considered “very wrong” in the eyes of many parents.
Many would prefer to see new types of marriage laws,
including three-year marriage licenses, leaving the option
of renewal up to the couple.
When ksked about her parent’s reaction to her living
with someone, Barbara, another NYCLU employee, said
they know “but prefer not to think about it.” As for her
mate’s parents, die said, “they would die if they found
out. They are devout Catholics who have told us they pray
every day that we will not opt to live together.”
Joan, who lives in New York City’s GreenwiClTVillage,
has lived with two different men. “With me, there was no
conscience problem. At the time I left home, 1 was so
alienated from everyone that other people’s opinions
didn’t matter.” in Joan’s neighborhood, couples living
together are the norm. “I haven’t felt the social pressure
that couples do when they live in uptight middle-class
communities.”
Barbara, however, hasn’t had trouble adjusting to the
middle-class milieu in which she lives. ‘They know we’re
different only because we don’t have an Abortion is
Murder sticker on our car. Outwardly, we don’t give them
any reason to be uncomfortable.”

Since the unwed couple has no legal status, there are
no sure-fire answers to the countless problems that may
crop up during the relationship. Major complications can
arise involving child support and custody. Under the
present law, the mother alone is responsible for support of
the child and the only one to have custody rights. A father
must admit paternity during pregnancy or within two
years of the child’s birth to become liable for its support.
If he refuses, he can be brought to court.
To avoid all the legal entanglements, a New England
couple decided recently to draw up a contract that would

take care of their children, property and inheritance. In
addition, their 11-point document also defines the couple’s
relationship to each other. While many couples frown
upon such convenants (saying that if they wanted a
contract, they would have gotten married in the first
place), they concede the necessity for them. Proponents
did not support standardized contracts, however,
emphasizing that they should be designed by the individual
couple.
Tax laws suprisingly work to the advantage of the

unmarried couple unless they have widely disparate
incomes. Since they cannot file a joint return (doing so
involves charges of civil fraud and up to 50% interest on
the unrecorded amount), they will wind up paying more
taxes than the married couple. But, as if to even things
out, an unmarried couple, each person earning $10,000
without dependents, taking the standard deduction will
pay $340 less in taxes than the married couples earning the
same amount; if they have a child under IS, they come out
ahead by $612. Also, the single taxpayer can take a
standard deduction of 15%, up to $2000, while the
married couple shares that amount between them.
Children bom to the couple are deductible as Is one
partner if there is only one wage earner.
Finally, inheritance laws tend to discriminate against
unmarried couples since there are no provisions permitting
them to combine their legacies. Furthermore, only
legally-wed couples can inherit half of the other’s estate,
tax-free. It should also be remembered that if both couples
jointly purchase real estate, there should be proof of this
or else the partner who inherits might be taxed for the full
amount of the property. The unmarried couple should also
be wary of scrounging relatives who might claim their
rights to the deceased’s property and possessions.
Although very few inroads have been made, the
ACLU, along with the Playboy Foundation, have begun to
challenge those laws that unfairly discriminate against
unwed couples. Meanwhile, couples who feel they are
being mistreated should promptly consult a lawyer.

Problems in construction of the North Campus
Law School are gradually being ironed out, although
officials do not expect the building to be entirely
completed until January. While the first day of
classes was delayed for over a week, faculty, staff
and students of the John Lord O’Brien School of
Law and Jurisprudence are eagerly preparing for the
September 18 opening. Aware that “staging and
phasing” problems would develop, Facilities
Hanning urged law school personnel not to move
into O’Brien Hall until January. However, faculty
members felt it would be impossible to relocate the

IRC cites alack ofplanning
Several complaints concerning the occupancy of
the Governors Residence Halls on the North Campus
have been lodged by the Inter-Residence Council
(IRQ)n a tersely worder letter to Richard Siggelkow,
vice-president for Student Affairs, IRC president
Arthur Gordon has accused Food Service of creating
one of the “major hassles" encountered on
September 2, the day the North Campus dornitories
officially opened. Students arriving that day found
that their board contracts were not scheduled to
begin until the following evening.
Intervention needed
Residents found themselves faced with
extremely limited eating options, since the “cash
lin6” was scheduled to close at 4:30 that afternoon.
Intervention by Len Snyder, acting assistant
“vice-president for Auxiliary Enterprises, and Madison
Boyce, director of University Housing allowed the
cafeteria line to remain open until 7:00.
The problem was intensified by the fact the
Vending Service hadn’t completed installation of
their machines and only soft drinks and coffee were
avail- able. “Everything would have been alleviated if
there were at least vending machines,” stated Mr.
j

Gordon.
Originally, vending machines were to be
installed in the four lounges designed for that
purpose. Each lounge, however, could accomodate
six machines and a decision was made that more
efficient service could be provided if the machine
were centrally located. The cafeterias were selected
Unfortunately, this change in

architectural plans necessitated the installation of
new water and power lines to service the new
location andwork therefore could not be completed
before the dorms opened.

lots.

resident hall students protected access to social
activities and library facilities in O’Brian Hall.
Without the fenced-in sidewalk, pedestrians would
be in danger dodging towering earth movers
rumbling along at thirty miles an hour.
Charles Smith, project coordinator of the State
University Construction Fund, said he didn’t have
the contract available that listed the projected
completion date but noted that the sidewalk is not
under construction and “they are busting their asses
to get it in as soon as possible.”
Mr. Smith also stated that lighting in the parking
lots is now under construction. “We had three
temporary lights up but wires hadn’t been run fb
them,” said Mr. Smith. This work is now in its final
stages. Construction of permanent lighting fixtures is
also underway.

Nothing new
Don Bozek, assistant director of Food Service
said that the delayed starting time for board
contracts was nothing unusual. “We didn’t start until
the day after the dorms opened last year either,”
stated Mr. Bozek. However, Mr. Gordon pointed out
in his letter that the isolation of the dorms and the
fact that a high proportion of the residents were
freshmen were known beforehand and that plans
should have been rpade to avoid these problems.
Another problem criticized by IRC was the
failure of the University to complete the sidewalk
between the North Campus dormitories and the Law
Building. This sidewalk was planned to allow

The Community Action Corps (CAC) has a

open in the 48 community projects run by the
organization. In addition, project heads are still

they pay in good faith for goods
or services they don’t receive and
they don’t know what to do. If
you’ve lost money, the amount is

Small Claims Court is a
much-misunderstood and
underused remedy for many of
the small but vexing problems
students face. Aiiy individual (not
a corporation, only an individual
may sue in Small Claims Court),
who feels he or she has been

has suffered a monetary loss, can
go to Small Claims Court for
relief.
The Legal Aid Clinic has all the
information you’ll ever need, but

Second, the clerk sends a
summons by registered mail
notifying the defendant of the
charges against him and warning
that he will lose by default if he
does not appear. If the clerk
cannot reach the defendant by
mail, the plaintiff will be given the
summons. Then the plaintiff must
try to serve the summons
personally. The summons must be
served before the case can be
heard.
Third, once the summons is
served, the defendant may
institute a counterclaim, in which
case the clerk notifies the
plaintiff. If the defendant does
not enter a counterclaim and fails
to appear in court, you win.
If the case proceeds to the
fourth, and usually final step,
both parties go to court. If one
party demands a jury trial, the
case is transferred to the Civil
Division. When the court session
begins, the clerk “calls the
docket”
legal parlance for
checking attendance. If both
parties are present, the judge will
hear the case. First, the judge asks
if the parties prefer to be heard

The court prefers, and in most
cases are adequately served, by
choosing the arbitrator.

Starting October 1, Campus Security will begin
issuing tickets to faculty cars parked in student Jots.
Security already tickets student cars in faculty lots.
President Ketter approved this recommendation of
the Traffic Control Advisory Committee (TCAG) on

June 22.
Vehicles without parking stickers are considered
to belong to visitors and will be permitted to park
only' in the Diefendorf lot. Overnight guests may
park in the Main-Bailey lot if they notify Security
beforehand.
Dumping prohibited

This recommendation came after the Committee

rejected a plan to create open parking throughout
campus. Cliff Palefsky, Student Rights coordinator

and a member of TCAC, commented that “the
student parking situation on campus is ridiculous.
After the proposal for open parking was rejected, the
least we could do was ensure that student lots would
not be a dumping ground for overflows from faculty
and visitor lots,” concluded Mr. Palefsky.
However, this move may not have an effect on
the parking problem. There are between 15,000 and
20,000 vehicles on campus and 6nly 5000 available

spaces.
A second recommendation of the TCAC waste
return to campus parking tickets rather than City of

Buffalo and Amherst parking tickets. Mr. Palefsky
argued that there would be many advantages to this
system. Fines would allegedly be reduced to $5 and.

to collect assessed fines,” Mr. Palefsky said, referring
to an act of the 1972 State Legislature, which gives
University the power to deduct any unpaid fines
from a paycheck of a faculty or staff member and to
withhold a student’s grades and/or diploma if he fails
to pay his fines. The fact that fines could not be
collected from faculty and staff was a major reason

that campus tickets were abandoned three years ago.

Status quo
This recommendation did jnot receive Dr.
Ketter’s approval. Thomas Craine, assistant to
President Ketter, explained that the decision to
reject the motion was reached for two basic reasons.
The Administration still does not believe that the
University is able to ensure that persons ticketed will
pay their fines-and it doesn’t feel that the University
be able to create a functional operation that will
k smoothly and justly. Dr. Craine put it this
way: “We fail to see really legitimate reasons" that
woulckhecessitate a change.
Robert Hunt, chairman of the TCAC, was one
of the dissenting votes in a 7-2 majority that favored
the acceptance of both recommendations. In support
of the Administration’s decision, Mr. Hunt stated
that there is no evidence that this new system would
be more efficient than its predecessor and therefore
he too sees no reason for a change.
■ V
Mr. Palefsky finds the Administration’s stand
“unbelievable.” “|fs position ignores ,fhe fact' that as
a rfesult of the n'eW
from Albapy,
previously faltering systems ip Binghamton, Albany
and elsewhere are now working smoothly and
efficiently,” concluded Mr. Palefsky.

�Nixon contraditions

President reveals twofaces
by Marc Jacobson
City Editor

Richard Nixon has proven himself the master
politician again.
In an attempt to steer the public and the
Congress away from the problems of Watergate, the
President has, in the span of one week, held a news
conference to discuss “substantive issues,” met with
congressional leaders of both parties in an attempt to
coordinate their efforts, issued his second State of
the Union message, and spoke to the nation on
radio.
In his effort to saturate the American public
with nonsense about the economy, the budget and
defense spending, Mr. Nixon has contradicted
himself over and over. For example, Mr. Nixon is
attempting to deal with inflation, the Number One
problem in America, with the following words:
“Americans want and deserve decisive action to fight
rising prices. And they want every possible step
taken now
not a year from now or in the next
session of the Congress.” He is also fighting inflation
with the following action: the lifting of regulations
governing the price of natural gas, so that the price
can arise, and further expansion of production can

President’s second such address
this year, touched upon the issues

and the environment

Watergate ‘unimportant’
In his radio message, the
President asked the people to
prod their ’Congressmen into
holding the line on federal
spending, and \jirged the people to
support passage of his proposed
legislation. The President also Said
that the Executive and Legislative
branches should “seek solutions
that are in the common interest.”
Implying that the Watergate
scandal does not affect the lives of
American citizens, the President
“{Cooperation) means
said:

attention and public debate on

tapes, Mr. Nixon asked that

jeopordize the capacity of the
President, in this and in future
administrations, to carry out his
responsibilities to the American
people.”

Defense cuts disputed
The message, which was made
available at 2 p.m. Sunday, also
warned the people about
defense
tampering with the
budget. Mr. Nixon recognized the
trend in recent years to suggest
funding for domestic programs by
cutting the defense budget by $5
to $20 billion. The President

Tax reform proposed
Regarding the inflation and the
economy,
the President
underscored the fact that
Americans want lower and more
stabilized prices. He is opposed to
a tax increase, but favors a tax
“reform” to taring about a “fairer
and simpler” system of taxation.
While attempting to keep
prices down,' the President has
asked the Democratic-corftrolled
to free natural gas from
regulations which he said have
held prices artificially low and
discouraged
expansion
of
production. He also asked for
approval of the Alaska pipeline, of
strip mining to obtain more coal
for lower costs, and of building
more deepwater ports for super
oil tankers.'
The President seems to feel
that revenue sharing can help
solve many of our problems. He
has proposed that direct federal
grants to education be replaced by
revenue sharing; revenue sharing
should also be the method for

occur.

People to take action
Indeed, his heart is in the right place. Like a
man who has to win back the faith of his business
associates, Mr. Nixon has quietly abandoned last
week’s assessment of Congress. At his press
conference, he called their record “disappointing,”
but has since said that Congress has done a good job
“overall.”
In his radio message, he-appealed to the people
of the country to “help get action.” He asked the
people not to allow the “social planners” in

COMMENTARY
Washington to usurp their right to plan their schools.
He simultaneously proposed fifty programs to be
initiated at the federal level. In the Stale of the
Union message foe restated his opposition to
compulsory school busing, .and proposed tjie
elimination of certain grant programs. But he still
feels that school planning should be done by the
individual school district.
His attitude in both the State of the Union
message and the radio address was one of
conciliation with the Congress. However, he still
maintains positions that are diametrically opposed to
those of the Democratic-controlled legislature. He
said that he .would not hesitate to veto any
legislation that he considered “budget busting,” and
refused to reorder his priorities.
Strip mining to be legalized
Years of complaining,

legal

action

and

legislation at federal and local levels have finally
made some inroads into preserving the environment.
Mr. Nixon is attempting to reverse that trend. In an
effort to hold down prices (our No. 1 priority,
remember?), Mr. Nixon has proposed that
“standards” be established so that strip mining of
coal might be used to add to the energy supply.
Enforcement of the standards would probably rest
with the federal government, since they would be
establishing the guidelines. In the last few years,
most people have lost much faith in the enforcement
powers of the federal government. One wonders how
easily the coal manufacturers will be able to bribe
the appropriate officials so the “standards” might be
relaxed.
The President is very concerned with the energy
crisis. However, nowhere in his radio address or State
of the Union message does he offer a plan for
developing alternative methods of energy
production. There is no mention of the fact that all
the oil companies realized their highest profits ever
last year. Occidental Petroleum leading the list with
profits of over $400 million. He does not respond to
consumer questions regarding the high cost of
gasoline, in light of the oil company’s high profits.
Death penalty to be reinstated
The dismantling of the Office of Economic
Opportunity was declared unconstitutional this past
year. OEO sponsored many projects designed to
benefit the inner city residents. The Model Cities
program was such a project Mr. Nixon has seen fit to
describe the program as “proven failures.” This is
clearly because funding was consistently held up for
the program.
In a return to barbarism, he has proposed the
reinstatement of the death penalty for certain high
crimes. The man must feel frustrated that people are
not dying in Southeast Asia in the same numbers as
the past, so he will try to watch them die here.
Whoever said his attention is focused exclusively on
foreign affairs?

No power erosion of the President
The President said he believed in a “strong
Congress,” but he added. “1 will continue to oppose
all efforts to strip she Presidency of the powers it
must have to be effective ... There should be no
monopoly of power.” Amazingly, he threatens to
veto anything that cuts the defense budget, raises
taxes, or increases the minimum wage too quickly,
but insists that he stands “ready to find workable
compromises wherever possible on solutions to our
national problems.”
The double-talk and double-think that Richard
Nixon epitomizes has finally engulfed us with
nonsensical words and contradictory actions. The
real test of the President’s committment to the
people will come when Congress finally does get
down to enacting legislation.

In response to the

example, the energy crisis. Mr Nixon has asked
Congressional approval of the Alaskan pipeline, free
market prices for natural gas, standards for strip
mining and other legislation, most of which will-have
no effect this winter but will greatly profit the oil,
gas and coal industries.
The gasoline squeeze this summer and
foreboding warnings of possible shortages of heating
oil for homes this winter have shocked the average
consumer into the latent realization that our
resources are not endless. The recent warnings by
oil-rich Arab countries that they will limit oil
supplies to the U.S. unless we moderate our policies
toward Israel has not only complicated the Middle
East situation but made Americans all too aware of
our dependence on imported oil.
In the tong run we must develop alternate
sources of energy, quite possibly nuclear, to ease our
growing, exclusive dependence on oil. In the short
run, no one will argue that we must take necessary.

of competing interests is necessary to resolve the
important areas of conflict between proponents of
energy and the environmentalists.— not a wholesale
renunciation of clean air standards and other
ecological concerns which would negate the progress
of recent years.
Reiterating his opposition to school busing for
integration, Mr. Nixon said he believes in "the right
of children to attend schools near their homes with
friends who live near them." This is a thinly-veiled
description of white friends and suburban homes, an
appeal to racist instincts which his work ethic and
anti-welfare rhetoric successfully exploited in the
1972 election. But his rose-colored declaration that
"the dismantling of the dual school systems in the
south is now virtually complete" is not only too sad
to be laughable; it is painfully typical of an
Administration which makes optimistic
pronouncements in the face of harsh reality.
This is a favorite tactic, whether it is labeling the
shambles in Indochina "peace with honor," the
President unilaterally declaring the urban crisis to be
over, or Earl Butz telling us to eat fish. Another
favorite Nixon ploy is to cry "inflation!" when
Congress proposes the education and social welfare
programs he has never liked, while ruling out any
suggested cuts in the sacred defense budget as
injurious to national security. Certainly we must
keep our military and strategic strength strong on
the eve of SALT—II and troop reduction talks with
the Soviet Union, but to pretend that the inflated
and padded $79 billion Pentagon budget cannot be
trimmed is foolhardy.
It has long been clear that the greatest threat to
America comes not from a foreign enemy but from
within, from the disaffected millions who are at the
bottom of the social ladder. The President mouths
platitudes about the work ethic, but this summer
vetoed an aid-to-the- handicapped bill which
included vocational training as "inflationary." This
week he vetoed a bill to raise the minimum wage
from $1.60 to $2.20 an hour on the same grounds
grossly ignoring the fact the minimum wage-earners
are those hardest hit by skyrocketing prices and
it■''ii V*n»i mi
inflation. 1 '■*He proposed scrapping urban renewal and model
cities programs Monday because they are "proven
failures," ignoring the lack of funds and limited
scope which hampered the projects, much as he
ignored the law in the illegal dismantling of OEO. All
of this describes Mr. Nixon's reactionary social
philosophy which will use any argument, from
inflation to a rejection of Washington paternalism, to
deter social programs for the poor and
disadvantaged. Congress, however, stands ready to
oppose the White House on domestic priorities. That
the courts have overturned the destruction of OEO
and have ruled Presidential impoundment of funds
illegal in every single court test is a relieving example
of our time-tested system of checks and balances.
It is this system that President Nixon has tried
to pervert by ignoring Congress, the courts and the
press; and it is the same time-worn system which
exposed the excesses of Watergate and has produced
a revived Congress ready to challenge a President
who six months ago seemed invincible. One thing
Watergate has made clear is that although
three-quarters of the country believe Mr. Nixon
guilty of personal complicity, the large majority has
recognized that impeachment is simply not feasible
in the modern age. Impeachment is a long, divisive
process which would paralyze the government at"
an
home and abroad for at least six months
unthinkable period.
. Once elected, it seems a President can break the
law at his pleasure and still be immune from
impeachment
a prospect frightening for its
of
executive
abuse. But the power of
implications
the press, which has in effect become a fourth
branch of government, can serve as a check on that
abuse as can public opinion, the legislature and the
courts. Despite Mr. Nixon's attempts to bribe judges,
wiretap newsmen, manipulate the FBI, CIA, IRS and
ignore subpoenas, those institutions remain alive and
well. Just how effective they are will be determined
in the coming months as the once-monarchial
President and the once-dormant Congress lock horns
on the crucial issues facing our country.

■

Six months ago President Nixon behaved as if
the Congress did not exist. Buoyed by a landslide
victory, carving a super-Cabinet of an all-powerful
shielded
isolation by the
in
few,
Haldeman-Ehrtichman palace guard, Mr. Nixon
spoke of grand plans which excluded significant
input from the legislature.
A torrent of disclosures later, his initiatives
blocked by a strengthened and adversary Congress,
Mr. Nixon has now decried enroachments of
Presidential power by the legislature.'Although
Congress has done little more than reassert its
constitutional responsibilities in such areas as the
illegal impoundment of funds and the power to
declare war, such notions run counter to the
Nixonian concept of a Presidency free of any
compromise or restraint, whether from Congress, the
courts, or the press.
The enemy lists and the wiretapping of
newsmen were the first signs that Mr. Nixon believed
in. a Presidency above the law. His assertion that he
would only obey a "definitive decision" of the
Supreme Court to release the tapes typically ignores
the fact that "ordinary" citizens would be compelled
to obey even a 5-4 ruling on narrow legal grounds.
Arguments like these and the Ehrlichman thesis (that
the President has the discretionary authority to
order burglaries)
underscore Mr. Nixon’s
monarchical view of his office.
But when his popularity rating plummeted to a
low of 31%, the king was dethroned. In his place
appears Richard Nixon the politician, scoring
Congress for a "disappointing" record on one hand
and pledging to work for compromise on the other.
HEs idea of compromise, however, is to publicly
denounce Congress for opposing his policies, much
the same way as he used to lambast antiwar
demonstrators as "unpatriotic." But now he faces a
rejuvenated Congress which has its own, independent
idea of budget priorities.
It is in this atmosphere that President Nixon
sent his second State of the Union message to
Congress Monday. The report deals with a wide
range of issues, some so intricate and complex that
there are no clear-cut solutions, despite the i
President's rhetoric to the contfary. There is, for

UPI reported Friday that “Apparently acting on
a tip relayed by a White House source, security
officers at the State Department Thursday
discovered that a little-used room on the third floor
had been the scene of surreptitious sexual
activities ... State Department sources said the
room (was) apparently used to store janitors’
supplies.” The story continued that the General
Services Administration (GSA) was investigating.
Now really! Sensible people may hope that this
policy of harassing Foggy Bottom fornicators will
stop when Henry Kissinger (if, indeed, he wasn’t the
one) takes over. But if there’s one thing sensible
people know it’s that the sensible thing is rarely
done in Washington.
So prepare yourself for intensified efforts to
crack down on screwing in the broom closet. Expect
die President to.announce (if he can’t keep it secret)
the formation of a new “plumbers” unit to probe
into sex in government agencies. This would be a
perfect opportunity to get John Ehrlichman back
into public life.
As you certainly recall from the Watergate
hearings, Mr. Ehrlichman is the ex-Presidential
Assistant so down on Congressional tipplers and
Other sinful Washington types. The possibilities are
endless. Imagine bugged broom closets, wiring for
sound the space behind the file cabinets, setting up
closed-circuit TV in the parking garage to peer into
bureaucrats’ Buicks.
Maybe Secretary of State Kissinger willbe asked
to tap phones of his aides to learn who’s been
leaking sex into foreign affairs. And the change in
Dr. Kissinger’s image will be astounding. Ail his
previous flings with Jill St. John, Mario Thomas and
other women will have to be declared inoperative.
He’ll have to stop joking, drink nothing stronger
than milk, remarry his divorced wife and become a
dedicated family man like all the other faceless,
mindless Nixon aides.
And imagine the expense; thousands, millions of
obr tax dollars going to pay for these hew efforts to
stop “surreptitious sexual activities.” The creation of

Government Operations Committee? Hell have to
hire not lawyers for his probes but Masters and
Johnson. Oh, and if only Alfred Kinsey were still

would be a classic.
This might make Captain Black's loyalty oath
competition from Catch-22 look like kid stuff. The
State Department will ‘demand all employees sign
affadavits swearing to their virginity if they’re
unmarried, the Defense Department will see them
and then require all employees to swear that, if
they’re married, they’ve never had sex with anyone
but their spouses.
State, not to be outdone, will insist on
gynecological examinations to insure chastity. (Of
course it’s discriminatory, but politics is a sexist
game.) Defense will put saltpeter in the cafeteria
food. And the National Security Council will go
farthest, castrating all men in sensitive positions.
(OX., Women’s Libbers, that puts you even for the

on $55.2 million in federally guaranteed student loans.
Under the guarantee program, the federal govenrment had to pick
the
tab and repay the money to the banks and other institutions
up
from which the students had borrowed the money.
Subsequently, it was able to recover only $3.2 million from the
defaulting students.
One big problem has been that, as recently as March, 1972, there
were only three federal collectors for deliquent student loans in the
whole country. There are now 28 collectors and examiners in ten
regional offices, but the collection goal for this year is still a modest
$5.5 million

Scheduling for most sports will be unaffected since
only national championships may change. Hockey
and fencing will be unaffected. Wrestling, baseball
and basketball have everything to gain, whereas the
smaller programs have nothing to lose. It is doubtful
that in the near future, swimming, track or tennis
will produce championship teams of even Division
III caliber. “The local organizations can take care of
them,” said Athletic Director Harry Fritz, referring
to the New York State Athletic Association which
holds post-season championships in these sports.

Coaches prefer Division I
Apparently most of the people in the Athletic
Department want the Bulls to be in Division I.

Cause for optimism
Despite much turmoil and gloom, there is some
cause for optimism. Even before the first
intercollegiate contest was played, the Athletic
Department was issued a budget. The basketball
team is rebuilding with a junior college transfer from
Kansas and an Ohio All-Star. The wrestling team has
recruited two of its best prospects in a long time.
Hockey coach Ed Wright has a dozen local recruits
that he feels can skate well. Baseball still has some of

Despite the lack of scholarship athletes, Fritz is
optimistic that the Bulls can survive in Division I.
“We can be helpful to kids in other ways,” said
Fritz. ‘The best thing we have going for us is the
school itself.”
A final decision will not be made for several
weeks, but all signs point to Division I, a wise move
if for no other reason than the fact that Division II
may not survive. However, it won’t be easy for
Buffalo, a respectable position in Division I until the
Athletic Department achieves greater stability.

The NCAA’s power structure has been changed
to properly balance the divisions. Each division is
free to make its own by-laws pertaining to

scholarships and scheduling, but their regulations
cannot conflict with the NCAA constitution. The
120 schools with a large-scale football program were
automatically placed in Division I. All other schools
have until a date in October (yet to be decided) to
choose their division.
All but one of a school’s teams must play in the
same division with only one playing in a higher

With the cost of agricultural goods
skyrocketing, administration officials offer

weak predictions that the price situation
will improve perhaps in a year. In Buffalo,
however, shoppers who are willing to buy
in larger than usual quantities have an
opportunity to chop 50% from their fruit
and vegetable bills, providing they shop “in

The Bailey-Clinton Market, located at
the intersection of those two streets,
features the produce of over 250 farmers in

Attica “reforms” criticized
Assemblyman Arthur O. Eve, D., Buffalo,
ATTICA, N.Y. (UPI)
said a four-hour tour of the Attica Correctional Facility Sunday
convinced him that only superficial changes have been made since the
bloodiest prison riot in the country’s history happened there two years
-

ago.

Eve, one of the observers during the uprising, told a crowd of
about 200 persons gathered outside the prison Sunday that Attica’s
rehabilitation program is “still very, very minimal.”
The crowd gathered to commemorate the second anniversary of
the five-day insurrection which claimed 43 lives
32 inmates and 11
-

guards.

Eve told the crowd some recreational programs were improved
and a college program that benefits about 30 inmates had been
instituted. He called most of the changes “cosmetic.”

CAMPUS
Amherst land debated
In a very unusual move, the Board of Directors of the
Faculty-Student Association (FSAJ voted to go into Executive session
at their last Friday’s meeting (Sept. 7). “We went into executive session
for the first time in at least-five years,” stated Anthony Lorenzetti,
assistant vice-president for Student Affairs and Board Member.
The Board was to have discussed the future of the over
five-hundred acre plot of land owned by the Board near the North
Campus. Previous discussions on the matter indicated a desire on the
part of the Board to sell the land and set up a trust fund whose
proceeds would be for the benefit of the University community.
However, Board members were unwilling to comment on what
had transpired during the closed session. “I don’t think it would serve
the best interests of FSA to go into it,” stated Dr. Lorenzetti. “I do
however think its a good thing and don’t want to ruin it.”
Student Association Treasurer Ken Unker revealed that though he
had been unable to attend the meeting, since he was a Board member,
he had been briefed on the proceedings. However, he also declined to
make any comments.
There has been speculation that the discussions may have
concerned the final procedures for disposition of the land.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

allow for an expansion of clothing

reasonably-priced items such as
dungarees and sneakers.

Campus Editor

The Campus Bookstore is
sporting a new image this fall.
Summer-long negotiations
between General Manager Tom
Moore; Student Association (SA)
Student Rights Coordinator Cliff
Palefsky, and SA Executive
vice-president pens, paper, and
notebooks, to accomodate early
semester rushes, increase the
efficiency of theBookstore.
In the supply department,
prices on all necessity items were
either retained from last year or
substantially reduced.
Additionally, Mr. Moore agreed to
run promotional sales on
important supplies, including
pens, paper, and. notebooks, to
accomodate early semester
rushed. Reasoning that it is not
necessary to make a large profit
on required supplies, Mr. Moore
hopes the students will recognize
the price breaks and consequently
purchase other goods in the store.
To better define the high
selling items, a financial
distinction has been made
between the clothing and gift

Roomier atmosphere
The external appearance of the
Bookstore has recently been
rearranged to crate a roomier, less
crowded atmosphere, more
conducive to shopping.
Accounting offices, formerly
located on the emzzanine level.
were moved to Goodyear Hall and
the empty area was converted into
usable space. It is also expected
that the new layout will help
reduce pilferage.
‘The new setup was designed
to give the store more flexibility,”
Mr. Moore said. He pointed out
that the installation of gondolas,
rows of shelves on castors, makes
it easy to rearrange the floor of
the store without disturbing the

'

"

merchandise.
Mr. Moore also announced that
he will try to fill all future
part-time vacancies with students
whose schedules fit the need of
the Bookstore.
.

Mr. Palefsky, Mr. Saleh and Mr.

administration took office last
March. Referring to the
cooperation he has received form
the SA, Mr. Moore was very
pleased with “the free exchange
of ideas” that has passed between
them.
The group is presently
investigating new textbook
ordering policies for the upcoming
year. Mr. Palefsky outlines the
SA’s proposed guidelines: “One
individual in each department will
be responsible for obtaining all
faculty book orders and
forwarding them to the Bookstore
as a single departmental ordef.”
He added this “liasion” would
help the Bookstore determine
how many books to order,
preventing surplus or insufficient
orders.
Better book service
Mr. Saleh feels that under this
system, more direct pressure will
be exerted upon the faculty to

meet textbook ordering deadlines.
“By accounting for last minute
changes ip class structure
including capacity changes and
class cancellations, this procedure

will be more effective

Although Mr. Moore generally

somewhat concerned about

Another problem the

concerns the check cashing

incurs

losses of several hundred

dollars each year by cashing bad
checks, it was suggested that such
cases be reported to Campus
Security if an initial “courtesy”
letter proves fruitless. Security has
expressed interest ip this idea.

The Colleges: a short history

Cofltrary to popular belief, the
System was not originated by former
President Martin Moyerson. The idea

according to a recent Collegiate document, are:

academic planning and teaching.
-providing interdisciplinary ways of discussing

L. Ketter,then Dean of the Graduate School.
Since its debut in 1968, the number of
Colleges'has fluctuated between 6 and 17 units,
with new units created and existing units phasing
out. Currently, the Collegiate System at Buffalo
consists of 15 Colleges.
In its current form, the Collegiate System
comprises a wide range of programs. For instance,
Rachel Carson College offers an interdisciplinary
Ecology program, Women’s Studies College
examines the role of women in society and College
Z offers an alternative law program.
College B is a residential unit presently
occupying part of the Governor’s Complex at the
Amherst campus while College F studies social

providing a focus for non-traditional
academic activism.
The Collegiate System has been beset by
problems since the resignation of their Director last
spring; the secession of Clifford Furnas College
from the Collegiate Assempbly; a proposal to
eliminate two-thirds of the current Colleges, and
the absence of a permanent Director (a search
committee is currently considering applicants for
the position).
Nevertheless, College personnel are determined
to improve the quality of their programs. In the
past, students who carefully investigated the
various course offerings were able to find
interesting topics taught in non-traditional formats.

New course probes

Watergate scandal
by Scott Edelman
Spectrum Staff Writer

The Watergate scandal is now
on this University’s list of
academic endeavors.
A new experimental course is
being offered by the Political
Department
Science
in
conjunction with the Law School,
and the History and Philosophy
Departments. The course, taught
by fifteen faculty members is
titled
“Perspectives
on

Watergate.”

According to Political Science,
Department Chairman John Lane,
the course is designed to “separate

the wheat from the chaff.” The
problem with understanding the
Watergate affair is not the lack of
information but rather the
overabundance of it, said Dr.
Lane.
Dr. Lane emphasized that this
is not a course for those merely
looking for an easy “A.” “We will
not spend each week collectively
reciting from The New York
Times," said Dr. Lane. “This
course will not become another
bull session or encounter group
for people to release themselves of
political frustrations.”

Magruder cancelled
Dr. Lane originally planned for
the class to attend Watergate
defendant Jeb Stuart Magruder’s
talk which had been scheduled to
be held on campus October 10.
Unfortunately the talk has been
cancelled following District Court
Sirica’s
Judge

HOW TO APPLY: Applications may be

WHEN TO APPLY: At any time.
CRITE-R1A: All students are eligible, regardless
of how high the family income. Only those with
established need, however, can qualify to have the
Federal Government pay the interest on the loan;
others must pay their own interest. Those seeking
interest-subsidized loans must fill out a needs
analysis divulging income and assets. Such factors as
a large family, brothers and sisters in college, both
parents working and unusually large medical
expenses are taken into consideration. The financial
aid office of the educational institution processes the
application, applying a mandated formula, and
recommends to the potential lender the amount of
the interest-subsidized loan (including a possible zero
dollar recommendation) for which the student
qualifies. Prior to March 1, a student from a family
with an adjusted income of less than $15,000 could
qualify for an interest-subsidized loan, but under
new regulations many students who formerly
qualified are finding themselves ineligible.
SIZE OF LOAN: In general, loans may be for
up to $2500 a year
not to exceed $7500 during an
entire undergraduate career and $10,000 during the
course of undergraduate and graduate education.
The annual amounts and cumulative totals vary,
though, in some states, including Connecticut and
New York.
TERMS OF REPAYMENT: No payment on
principal is required until nine to 12 months after
the student leaves shcool or until after service in th»

New changes made
financial aid program
by lan DeWaal
Carp pus Editor

Even upperclassmen will be
interested in the myriad changes
instituted this summer that are
now affecting decisions on
financial aid awards. Among the
more important changes are the
creation of Basic Opportunity
Grants (BOG), the redefinition of
the Equal Opportunity Grant
program (EOG) and the reworking
of guidelines for New York Higher
Education Assistance Corporation
(NYHEAC) loans.
The BOG system was
developed in response to the
Nixon Administration’s desire to
provide grants directly to students
rather than awarding lump sums
to individual institutions and
requiring them to apportion the
funds. Unfortunately, the
appropriation authorized by
Congress for this fiscal year has
left the program badly
underfunded. Grants will range
from $50 to $452 rather than the

picked up in the Financial Aid
office in Harriman Library.
After BOG receives the
application a determination is
made as to the applicant’s
eligibility. A Family Contribution
Analysis Report is then mailed to
the student stating the amount his
family is expected to contribute
to his education. This card is
brought to the Financial Aid
office where final determination
of the grant will be made by using
a sliding scale provided by the
BOG headquarters. A voucher for
the amount is then sent to the
State University of New York
(SUNY) central office in Albany
and a check will be returned to
the University for the applicant to
pick up.

Colleges controversy...
members, while the extramural evaluation will be
carried out by a panel of distinguished scholars from
outside the University, to be appointed by President
Robert Ketter in the immediate future.

Criteria for rank-ordering
Additional criteria for the rank-ordering “should
evolve from discussions with the Faculty Senate and
the Collegiate Assembly,” Dr. Gelbaum stated.
The final decision on any rank-ordering would
probably be his own, Dr. Gelbaum said, “but only
after consultation with all relevant organizations and
individuals."
Refuting a Collegiate official’s charge that the
rank-ordering would be done on the basis of Dr.
Gelbaum’s “ideological bias,” the Academic Affairs
viccrpresident asserted; “We’re not censors.”
The controversy over Dr. Gelbaum’s proposal is
the latest in a series of disputes between the Colleges
since the resignation of Director Wayland Smith last
spring.

Dr. Gelbaum’f decision this summer permitting
Clifford Fumas College to withdraw from the
Collegiate Assembly set off a flood of objections
from College personnel. Collegiate officials have filed
a greivance with the Faculty Senate Executive
Committee charging Dr. Gelbaum with “acting
beyond his authority, in an administrative effort to
railroad policy past the Faculty Senate.” They also
rlaim that Dr. Gelbaum violated the Collegiate
Prospectus as well as the Faculty Senate Bylaws.
Additionally, Dr. Gelbaum has been chairing the
Collegiate Assembly meetings in the absence of a
permanent Director. Collegiate officials recently
wrote to President Kctter that “Dr. Gelbaum, while
explicitly and competently performing his expressed
Collegiate function as Chairman of the Assembly,
has also effectively acted as though he were filling
the office of the [CollegiateJ Director.” They have
therefore asked Dr. Ketter to explain the “conflict
of interest seen in the VPAA (vice-president for
Academic Affairs) position to the Assembly."

Since the first tankard of Brew was comsumed
in 2000 B.C., millions, if not billions, of poeple have
enjoyed beer and ale. Despite the great traditions of
beer, however, the average college student callously
consumes vast quantities of what seems to him only
a gold alcohol-infested liquid.
Joe College (that’s you) walks into his
neighborhood tavern (the word bar has no class) and
asks (in a quiet place) or yells (more typically) for a
beer. He does not care if he gets the “King of Beers”
or “A little Nip.” He is not cognizant that he is
neglecting the very literal personality that each
brand of beer has unto itself.
You see, during the second half of the ninteenth
century the beer that we drink today was first
formulated. Soon afterwards, German immigrants
brought over their great brewing heritage, combined
it with “the American Way,” and family breweries
sprung up across the States.
Each brewmaster from “the land of
Loewenbrau” imparted centuries-old traditions upon
his brew. Since transportation and large-scale plants
were not developed, almost every major town had its
own brewery (Western New York had at least 20 in
the early part of this century). Everyone was happy
until prohibition.
Cans and television

depression, hot manjr.; bf&gt; the smaller breweries

and particularly the workers give it the flavor of a

Free samples
The pleasant Bavarian brewmaster, Baptist
Schleelein, conducted the grand tour. I felt both awe
and admiration for how grains, yeast and hops are
almost magically converted into a light, carbonated
beverage. Huge copper kettles for brewing, giant
fermenting and aging tanks, and a fantastic bottling
plant make up most of the brewery. They also have
their own refrigeration plant and racking (keg-filling)
department.
Not one of the employees expressed
dissatisfaction with his job. One of the workers said:
‘The family is nice, and they let us drink all we want
as long as it doesn’t interfere with our work.” Not
surprisingly, he told me he had worked there for 22
years. I ended the tour with numerous glasses of
fresh, cool beer.
Fortunately, the Koch brewery is in relatively
good financial shape, despite the free beer. Yet, they
are one of the last of a breed of brewers who are
rapidly becoming extinct. Maybe the next time you
go out to get a beer, you’ll think twice and ask “the
Man” for a beer by name, rather than considering it
any “gold alcohol-infested liquid.”

A threat to innovation
The future of the Colleges is again in doubt. The system
has been beset with problems since its 1968 debut as an
exciting attempt to provide a type of education rerely
possible in the traditional departments. Although some
departments have flirted with innovation, most are generally
limited by large classes, lecture formats and lack of individual
attention, and department majors who insist on following
curriculum for fear of missing something on the rocky road
to grad school.
In this context, only the Colleges have had the freedom
to experiment with non-structured courses, with ideas
ranging from Marxist analysis to residential living-learning
units to photography to working at a radio station.
Far-ranging experimentation has yielded many courses and
even Colleges of questionable quality, but uncertainty is the
price of exploration: some fail, others succeed. Evaluation is
thus necessary to insure high standards
successful ideas
must be retained, while floundering courses must be either
phased out or modified.
Bernard Gelbaum, Academic Affairs vice-president, has
proposed that the 15 Colleges should be rank-ordered,
through intra- and extramural evaluation, and that only the
"top three or five" should be retained for next year. His
reasoning: that a few middle-class Colleges are preferable to a
slate of lower-class ones. We strongly disagree. While Dr.
Gelbaum rightly notes that study after study has cried "the
Colleges are underfunded," castrating two-thirds of its
programs is simply not the way to rectify its poverty.
Many aspects of the Gelbaum proposal have merit. Xis
suggestion to add $100,000 to next year's Collegiate budget
is welcome, and the ddal evaluation now under way can only
help identify strengths and weaknesses. Perhaps, as a result of
evaluation, a few Colleges should be phased out. But to
decide in advance that two-thirds or more must go is to
pre-judge the whole system a failure and severely limit
innovation.
Basically, the Colleges were never expected to subsist on
anything but limited funds, and it was felt that volunteers,
grad studients, those with specialized interests and new
formats would provide the innovation, not money. Money is
needed to hjre qualified faculty, but acting director Keith
Klopp rightly fears the proposal will lead to all faculty
members, and hence an end to the experimental aspects of
the system. It would transform the system from one where
people "take risks" to one both more structured and more
like traditional departments.
A stifling of experimentation would thus be one result of
Dr. Gelbaum's too-drastic proposal. By his own admission,
cutting the Colleges by two-thirds would yield one-third as
much opportunity for innovation. His plan to add "one or
two a year" to reach 15 again in ten years is a rather
backward way to reach the goal of overall quality. We must
work with what we have now to create a viable system. Also,
what criterion can be used to compare Colleges with differing
formats, pholosophies and goals? How can a rank-ordering be
done without bias? Which is more valuable, the History or
Chemistry Department? Educational quality is an undisputed
goal, but the raison d'etre for the diversity of the Colleges is
that there are many ways to achieve it.
A more moderate alternative would be to use the
forthcoming evaluations to
priorities. Programs rated
most unfavorably could be dropped, while the highest-rated
programs would get the biggest increases in funding. Those in
the middle would be forced to make do, as all the Colleges
do now, with limited bidgets, seeking alternate ways of
improving their programs and upgrading their standards. In t
few years more money might become iavaileble to them, but
in the meantime they at least survive.
Dr. Gelbaum's plan is still only a proposal, and the
Faculty-Senate's Colleges Committee to which it was sent
will eventually hold public hearings on his and other
proposals. Students must be exceedingly vocal in their
support of the Colleges, or else the system will be whittled
down to a mere shadow of what it is now. Without strong
support, the administration will assume we don't care. There
is no place for apathy
these issues directly affect the
quality of our education. The Colleges need re-evaluation and
modification not castration.

Joint conspiracy
To the Editor:

All articles thus far on Clifford Furnas College
have admitted the irregularity of Dr. Gelbaum’s
action but have minimally criticized Furnas College.
One must realize the joint conspiracy of these two
parties.

I

Gelbaum certainly has implemented his own
desires in disregard for a pending report on the given
issue, scheduled for the first Faculty Senate meeting
in the fall. Although one news-article cited the
success of Furnas College in being spawned in the
Collegiate Assembly and outgrowing it, it would be
fairer to say that Lyle Borst implemented his own
desires in disregard for an elaborate review procedure
now pending for determining the direction of all the
Colleges. Three-member committees composed
mostly of SUNYAB faculty were to review the
success of and recommendations for each College.
Nearly all Colleges received favorable evaluations and
substantive recommendations from thise critical
reviews. Lyle Borst exempted CFC from such a
Faculty Senate evaluation-committee report by his
alliance with Gelbaum.
The success of CFC or the expediency of Dr.
Borst is also exposed by the following. Daily
business and checks on each College are carried on in
the Collegiate Assembly,
Director’s Office,
Resources Committee, and Program Evaluation
Committee and subcommittees. Based upon this
elaborate governance with various options, CFC has
been reviewed by its peers and assigned an average
budget.
This regardless of little committee
participation, little contribution to College-wide
residential /interest,
and
minimum student
involvement. The number of registrants in CFC
course's could have been little more than 100 for all
of last year. What CFC is, beyond a dorm, wants for
explanation.

Student involvement, evaluation, and vote is not
SO students, with 34 responding:
“Congratulations, you are one of the carefully
chosen student-members of CFC. This is your Master
speaking. I recommend you to vote yes on the
enclosed ballot.”
The success of CFC is getting preferential
treatment from the administration by conspiring
with Gelbaum in the flaunting of power.

Harassment charged
To the Editor.
Jim McGo.urty, a member of the National
Caucus of Labor Committees and an organizer for
the National Unemployed and Welfare Rights
Organization (NU-WRO) was arrested by FBI agents
in Philadelphia on June 26 and charged with
desertion from the Marines. Since the government is
making little effort at the present time to prosecute
alleged deserters, it is clear that McGourty is being
framed for his political activities, not his alleged
desertion from the Marines.
McGourty’s arrest is one incident in a long chain
of "dirty tricks” harassment of the NCLC and of
NU-WRO that has been occurring for the past six

To the Editor.
Ian DeWaal’s assessment of the present Student
Association administration, appearing in SUR VIVAL
’73, is grossly inaccurate. The actions of Student
Association, over the summer and during these first
days of school themselves severely discredit
the
statements made in the article.
However, a more important flaw in the
presentation of the article is the deception with
which it is presented. The article is a reprint of a
piece originally appearing last year. I feel that The
Spectrum should have indicated this by prefacing the

The Jewish Holy Days of Rosh Hashanah, (New
Year) occur on Thursday, September 27 and Friday,
September 28. Since the university is closed on
Christian Holy Days we must assume that failure to
close on Jewish Holy Days as well is only an
oversight.
, Therefore I call attention .to the Holy Days in
1974 which take place on September 17 and
September 18, 1974 and on September 26, 1974,
Yom Kippur, Day of Atonement.
Meanwhile I trust that all Jews remember that
5 since Auschwitz Jews are women
and men, not
gutless lemmings, and that therefore no Jew,
whether or not he "has a religious commitment, will
appear on campus those days.

High Court’s toughest hour
by Max Lemer

WASHINGTON
When the Cox subpoena for
the Nixon tapes reaches the U.S. Supreme Court the
nine judges will have the toughest decision to make
in their judicial careers. The Burger court has already
had some big ones
on abortion, capital
punishment, pornography, the Pentagon Papers. But
in one sense this tips the others: It carries with it a
sharp constitutional crisis affecting the powers of the
Presidency and the courts, and public confidence in
x
each.
There is very little in past precedence to go by:
There is a high stake in the future. It is another
instance of a living Constitution, not a closed, dead
one. It is as if the judges were modern-day Hamiltons
and Madisons, writing a set of Federalist papers as
commentaries on how the optimal republic should
work. U.S. Dist. Judge Sirica, in his-closely reasoned
decision, got the first crack at it. The Supreme Court
will get the last.
Idly conjecturing about American history I have
a double dream
of great Presidents and great
judges of the past, and what each would think about
the issue of the present. As we reckon presidential
history most of the men we call great Presidents have
been strong Presidents. I cannot imagine any of them
getting involved in the moral mess Mr. Nixon is in.
But am I wrong in guessing that from Washington
and Jefferson through Jackson and Lincoln, to
Wilson, both Roosevelts, Truman, Kennedy and
Johnson, most of them would come down (in
principle, at least) somewhere near Mr. Nixon’s
constitutional position? I think not. They all tried to
stretch presidential power to its constitutional limits
and were jealous of their prerogatives.
I also have a dream of great judges of the past.
From John Marshall, through Hughes, Holmes,
Brandeis and Stone, to Black, Jackson and Warren, I
think most of them would come down pretty close
to Judge Sirica’s position. Some would be tom about
it. Holmes, for example, hated taps (the “dirty
business”) and would hate the tapes, but he also
believed unsentimentally in presidential power. Yet
he would resolve his doubts considerably short of
Mr. Nixon’s position. Men like Brandeis and Warren
would never waver for a moment.
From what we know of their past positions
there are two calculable groups in the current court,
each of three judges. Justices Douglas, Brennan and

Marshall are likely to uphold Judge Sirica, while
Justice Burger and Justices yBlackmun agd
Rehnquist will have serious dodbts about his
decision.
This is only in part a liberal-conservative split.
(Note that Sirica is himself a conservative
Republican.) NOr is rt basically a question of strong
or weak theories about the Presidency; Roosevelt
and Johnson, who appointed Douglas and Marshall,
held views of the Presidency rougly like Mr. Nixon’s
who appointed the second trio. It is rather a
question of political attitudes toward the current
crisis, and of total life views.
The deciding votes will come from an
intermediate trio of justices
Eisenhower-chosen
Stewart, Kennedy-chosen Whitt, Nixon-chosen
Powell. Of these three I feel pretty confident that
Stewart will (after whatever scruples) come down
with the Douglas-Brennan-Marshall trio to make a
fourth for Sirica.
The hardest to gauge are Justices White and
Powell. White is hard because he leaned more
strongly than his Warren court colleagues toward a
hard-line attitude on law enforcement. But such an
attitude is a double-edge sword in this case. It may
go with the idea of a tough presidential power,
especially on national security grounds. But equally
it may go with a tough enforcement of the law, as
much against the President as anyone else.
Justice Powell also offers a puzzle. His option in
the Plamondon case was cited by John Erlichman’s
lawyer, John Wilson, in his lively constitutional
exchange with Sen. Sam Ervin, as a symbol of a
reserve presidential power in national security
matters which flows from his obligation to “preserve
and protect the Constitution.” But Powell has also
shown a detachment from Nixon positions, as befits
a secure Virginia aristocrat aloof from the sweatings
and strainings of the insecure White House group.
Either of the two judges could go in either
direction. But the anti-Nixon four (counting
Stewart) would need only one of the two for a
majority, while the pro-Nixon three will need both.
There will probably be a gaggle of concurring and
descending opinions among the nine, but the
hairsbreadth difference between victory and defeat
may lie with that difference between needing one
and needing both.

“There are thousands of
students on the campus who
could profit from the Center if
they knew about it,” said Thomas
Edwards, Director of the
University’s Learning Center. Dr.
Edwards feels the Learning Center
has done an “inadequate job of
publicizing the services it has to
offer.
The Lemming Center’s main
purpose is “to provide basic skills

While the Center used to be only
for disadvantaged students, they
are now open on .a campus-wide
basis with courses to aid reading,
writing, oral communication,
math and other skills. However,
the Center's' purpose is
“misperceived” because of its
original form. “A lot of students
don’t come because they think it’s

students, said Dr. Edwards, “but

Teaching teachers
One of the most valuable
functions of the Learning Center,
in their training of grad students,
is “to teach teachers how to teach
reading,” said Dr. EdEdwgrds. He
feels strongly that we need
reading specialists in the school
system', especially at the
secondary school and college
levels, where they are scare?. “The
schools seem to emphasize how to
read words, and students don’t
develop the higher-level
sophistication needed in college,”
said Dr. Edwards.
“A lot of college students
don’t see reading as a thinking
process, only mechanical. They
can'i read a paragraph and get the
gist or central idea. Their

vocabulary is woefully
inadequate. And they do literal
reading, without interpretation
they can’t read critically and draw

inferences,” he continued.

term “remedial”
because it is perceived as a dirty

word. Dr. Edwards said “remedial

implies

low, and we have
advanced courses in reading and
other areas. It’s for anyone who
wants to improve.”
The Learning Center Utilizes
small classes of no more than IS,

and highly individualized
instruction. Using a method
known as diagnostic teaching, “we
can see what the problems are,
and the instructors write
prescriptions for students. The
students can then go into the lab
and work on their weaknesses,”
explained Dr. Edwards.
The Center services about 200
students of varied backgrounds.
They also provide in-service
training for graduate students,
who get both income and
supervised experience. “When
grads try to get jobs and are told,
‘No experience, sorry, we can’t
hire you’ well, they can get that
experience here,” observed Dr,
Edwards. For th? last two
summers, the Center has also
provided service for two kinds of
Upward Bound students: high
school students who want to take
summer courses, and high school

..■He therefore places a large
stake in training teachers to teach
reading properly. “It’s the
multiplier effect: If I can work
with 10 teachers, each of whom
can work with 30 kids, that’s 300
kids,” explained Dr. Edwards. The
Center sends out brochures to
entice grad students around the
country to come and study at the
Buffalo Center.
Multiplied effect

Understandably, the Center
deals with many students who Dr.
Edwards calls “underachievers.”
He explains: “Some students
come to college and don’t give a
damn about school. They have a
lack of clear-cut foals, and many
are just not motivated; maybe
they’re jUst here because of*
parental-pressure. To compound
all this, they sometimes have a
lack of adequate learning skills
and study habits.” It is here that
the diagnostic skills of the
Learning Center can help students
through individual, help in each
student’s specific area of
weakness. Located on the Ridge
Lea campus, the Learning Center
is open to students “of all levels
of achievement who want to

improve.

Press gets credit for expose
by Louis Harris
By a narrow 50 to 44 percent, most Americans
feel “the press and television have given Watergate
more attention than it deserves.” This marks a
turnaround from the 46-40 percent plurality who
felt in July that time and space devoted to Watergate
in the media was “not excessive.”
At the same time, however, by a decisive p6 tq
24 percent, a substantial majority simply does not
believe the “press is jsut out to get President Nixon
on Watergate.” In fact, the public gives the press
more credit for the expose of the Watergate scandal
than any other source, including the Select
Committee of the U.S. Senate on Watergare.
By a thumping 66-22 percent, two .in every
three agree that “if it had not been for the press’
exposes, the whole Watergate mess would never have
been found out.” This margin has increased since
July, when people felt that way by 56-18 percent.
By a narrow 40 to 39 percent, a plurality also
goes along with the statement that “if Watergate had
not been exposed, the free press in the country
would have been threatened with censorship next.”
The division has not changed substantially over the
summer months.
These results add up to an ongoing and ever
increasing public vote of confidence in the way the
press and television have handled themselves in

covering Watergate. Nonetheless, the feeling persists
that Watergate coverage has passed the saturation

HED 254 (Day)
Critical Issues in Higher Education

'•

Tuesdays from 3 -5 p/m in Diefendorf,
room 307. Instructor, Dr. Curtis Bennett.

ai

The typical elective is alt to often a watered down
version of its sister course offered to majors.
Learning options are frequently confined to term
papers and/or examinations; instruction is typically
via the lecture method. HED 254 provides a
different and more flexible, student-centered
approach

Concerned essentially with the critical issues
generated by the explosive growth of American
Colleges and Universities and their complex
interactions with the larger society, this course is
an appropriate elective for DUS students at any
point in their academic career. Moreover, it is
equally as good an opportunity to apply and test the
validity of one’s prior experiences and knowledge
as it is a place to acquire new perspectives.
Participants are encouraged to share

in a
non-threatening and non-competitive seminar
setting values, attitudes, and experiences relevant
to colleges and universities. The non-competitive
environment is made possible through the
introduction of individual learning agreements
-

designed via negotiation between each participant
and the instructor subsequent to the third class
meeting of the semester. This means that each
individual may bring to the course his or her own
onjectives and methods of study. Except for
participation in the core experience (i.e., classroom
discussions), eveything is negotiable. This includes
work accomplished outside of class and the
evaluation of that work. Since each learning
agreement will differ, there will exist no valid basis
for comparison with other individuals. The quality
of one’s performance in class discussions will not
enter into the evaluation leading to a grade.
Evaluation will consist of 3—4 evaluative sessions
and a wrap-up negotiating session at which time
the instructor and student will attempt to arrive at
consensus regarding the latter’s progress as
measured againsi the terms of the prearranged
learning agreement. Grading options include letter
grades, pass-fail or SW (i.e., written evaluation).

that many people are still looking for Democrats to

However, 10 months after the election of last

Health hot line inaugurated
MOSCOW (UPI) The United States and the
Soviet Union inaugurated a hot line for health last
week to exchange information in their joint medical
[urogram. A communique issued by Caspar W.
Weinberger, the Secretary of Health, Education and
Welfare, said also that the two countries agreed to
add arthritis as a research field in the program. The
agreement on medical science and public health,
signed by Soviet leaders and President Nixon during
his May 1072 visit here, called originally for joint
study on heart disease, cancer and environmental
health. Weinberger and Soviet health minister Boris
V. Petrovsky inaugurated the direct telex hotline to
enable scientists exchange information and data
immediately. The communique was transmitted as

Arab gunmen and the

Saudi Arabian Embassy in Paris flew to an
unspecified destination today aboard a new aircraft
provided by Kuwait authorities. An airport
spokesman said the gunmen demanded and received
a Kuwait Airways Boeing 707. He' said the gunmen
did not spedify where they wanted to go, but half an
hour after takeoff a Kuwait airport control tower
spokesman said “the aircraft is heading toward
Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.” The guerrillas ended their
seizure of the embassy Thursday and flew with their
hostages in a zigzag pattern over the Middle East in a
French-made Caravelle jet furnished by Syrian
President Hafez Assad. Syrian officials said the plane
carried 17 persons, including four crew members.

Cox moves again for tapes
Special Prosecutor
WASHINGTON (UPI)
Archibald Cox moved last Friday to try to get a
modification of an order by Judge John J. Sirica that
President Nixon turn over Watergate-related tape
recordings for the judge’s inspection.
Cox prepared to file a motion in the U.S. Court
of Appeals in the latest of the long and tangled
attempts of the Senate Watergate Committee and the
special prosecutor to obtain the secret tapes.
Cox presumably wants more assurance that the
Watergate grand jury gets a chance to hear the tapes.
The White House filed a petition last Thursday
with the Court of Appeals for a writ of mandamus
declaring that Sirica was “clearly erroneous” in his
order of last week. Sirica said he personally would
listen to the tapes to determine if any should be
turned over to the grand jury as Cox wishes.
The Court of Appeals, seeking to expedite
matters to that the case will be ready for the
Supreme Court when it reconvenes Oct. 1, set a
hearing for tomorrow. It also agreed to Nixon’s
request to hear the case “en banc” that is, that all
nine circuit judges hear the case, instead of a usual
panel of three judges.

The department’s press office said it was not

one would say exactly how they knew the room had
been used for secret affairs.

BAR B Q

Attorney General
ALBANY, N.Y. (DPI)
Louis J. Lefkowitz announced last week that his
office was Investigating several complaints from
ticket holders who sought entry to the recent rock
festival at Watkins Glen, but were turned away
because of traffic conditions caused when more than
half a million persons swarmed into the area.
Lefkowitz said he had received complaints from
30 ticket buyers who alleged they were not able to
get to the rock festival because of the press of traffic
and the general inaccessibility of the rock site.
The attorney general said he had discussed with
the promoters of the apparently hugely successful
festival the possibility of making restitution to ticket
holders who were unable to get to the grounds
because of the traffic conditions.
Lefkowitz said anyone who believes he is
entitled to a refund could contact his New York City
office at 2 World Trade Center.

The Religious Studies Program in the Division of Undergraduate Studies seeks to
introduce undergraduates, at a variety of levels, to the academic study of religion; not
only the socio-cultural environments of the world's great religions, but also a formal
examination of their theological bases within historical and contemporary
perspectives. Enrollment in the following courses is open to all undergraduates.

Since there are no scholarships
or grants-in-aid available to entice
players to come to Buffalo and
tuition waivers for foreign players
have been cut drastically. Esposito
said: “To recruit, you’ve got to
hope some players would want to
come to Buffalo because of
friends or some reason like that. I
would look very favorably on
tuition waivers for foreign
students it would give them an
incentive to play.”
Despite the lack of aid, quality
players continue to flock to
Buffalo, and soccer fans can look

Many aspect of the culture of modem mass society will be discussed, with
special focus on the historical departure these phenomena represents, their
function as a mechanism of social control, and the sharp philosophical
issues they raise. Mass or media culture, broadly conceived, is becoming an
extensive administration of the spiritual life of the population.

This is a course about criticism, blame, and persuasion. Since a public is
educated according to its degree of participation in civic goverance and
since our system survives or founders upon the ability of its citizens to
make informed elections, your readings here will be about various tools
which help to make and to hinder ethical choices.

This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Oregon; top fine $100
Marijuana has been decriminalized in Oregon.
Oregon became the first state to remove criminal penalties for
private possession and use of marijuana last week as Governor
Tom McHall signed into law legislation reclassifying possession of
up to one ounce of grass as a “violation” with a maximum penalty

of $100 fine. Effective October 5, the offender also receives no
criminal record.
The new Oregon law represents a significant shift in public
policy, according to Keith Stroup, Director of the National
Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML). “The
President’s Commission on Marijuana and Drug Abuse reports that
under existing state laws approximately 93% of the
marijuana-related arrests are for possession, with only 7% for
selling. Law enforcement resources in Oregon can now be focused
on the commercial trafficker, instead of the user.”
Scarring penalties
As other states follow Oregon’s lead, Mr. Stroup said, “we
will see a dramatic reduction in the number of young people
whose lives are irreparably scarred by a criminal conviction for
simply smoking marijuana.”
Texas, whose marijuana penalties were the harshest in the
country, recently reduced private possession to a low
misdemeanor carrying 0—6 month jail term and/or a $1000 fine
for up to 2 ounces of grass. The law will free or reduce the
sentences of many of the 700 persons presently serving an average
sentence of 9Vi years in Texas prisons for possession of marijuana.
In the U.S. Congress, Senators Jacob Javits (R., N.Y.) and
Harold Hughes (D., Iowa) have re-introduced a bill to remove
criminal penalties from federal law for private possession and use
of marijuana. According to figures released by the Marijuana

State's new drug law

Stiff penalties effective Sept. 1
by Ron Sandberg
Managing Editor

New York State will be the recipient of the
nation’s toughest drug law come September 1 when
Governor Rockefeller’s program to provide stiff
penalties for drug traffickers takes effect.
Passed after months of debate and controversy,
the law calls for mandatory tife-term penalties with a
system of lifetime supervised parole for possession
and sale of certain “major” narcotics, such as heroin,
cocaine, opium and morphine regardless of the
quantity.
Additionally, the law severely restricts plea

bargaining which in the past permitted a defendant
to plead guilty to a lesser charge, often in return for
supplying information on major narcotics
distributors.
The limitations on plea bargaining, critic* assert,
would not only insulate big-time drug figures, but
would add thousands of trials to already

overburdened courts.
It is expected that enforcement of the new law
will require at least 110 new court parts with each

part containing judges, assistant district attorneys.
Legal Aid lawyers, clerks, stenographers, translators,
custodians and courtroom space.

Commission, over 26 million Americans have smoked grass.
This represents 16% of the adult population and two-thirds of
all college students. More than 200,000 people were arrested for
marijuana possession last year. NORML reports that the following
institutions and individuals have now recommended a
non-criminal approach to marijuana smoking:
I) National Commission on Marijuana and Drug Abuse
2) The Governing Board of the American Medical Association

bearing on the case, Dr. Gelbaum
said: “We are not involved in the

establishment or disestablishment
of an academic unit. This is a
simple realignment of a reporting
relationship, making Clifford
Furnas solely responsible to the
dean of Undergraduate Studies.”
Dr. Gelbaum also disputed the
contentions of Keith Klopp,
acting administrative officer of
the Collegiate System, that he had
circumvented the procedures
outlined in the Collegiate
Prospectus. The Prospectus,
adopted by the Faculty-Senate
two years ago, states; “The
Assembly of the Collegiate
System will be the policy-making
body for the Collegiate System."
The decision to allow Clifford
Furnas College D to leave the
Collegiate Assembly was made
pursuant to a long-standing
request from Lyle Borst, master
of Clifford Furnas College. After
“almost one year” of study. Dr.
Gelbaum became “firmly

convinced” that the relationship
between the Collegiate Assembly
and Clifford Furnas College was
“not a desirous one.”
Extensive consultations
“1 had extensive consultations
with Dr. Borst and former
Collegiate Director Wayland
Smith (who opposed the final
decision),” Dr. Gelbaum
maintained. He also consulted
with President Robert Ketter and
Vice President Albert Somit and
said both had “concurred” with
his decision.
Additionally, Dr. Gelbaum said
that students of Clifford Furnas
College were overwhelmingly in
favor of leaving the Collegiate
Assembly. He cited as evidence a
recent “mail ballot” conducted by
Dr. Borst, sent to the SS returning
resident students of Clifford
Furnas. Thirty-three voted in
favor of withdrawal from the
Assembly; two were opposed and
20 failed to return the ballots.
However, the poll’s validity
was seriously questioned by
Assembly officials when they
learned “a covering letter" from
Dr. Borst was sent with the
ballots, asking students to endorse
the departure from the Assembly.

The officials also considered
the vote “inconclusive” because
only 35 votes were cast out of a
total residential population of 140
(55 returning residents and 85
new residents). Additionally, they

said non-resident students
enrolled in Clifford Furnas
College were excluded from the
vote.

addict is hot capable of dealing with reality, let alone
his own reality. At least if he were given a chance
before having a mandatory life sentence laid on him,
he would be able to come to some important

actions “can injure and permanently maim” others.

�Attica shares strife, misery with nations prisons
by Steve Strahs
City Editor

Another prison flare-up occurred last weekend: this time in the boondocks of McAlester,
Oklahoma, home of the Oklahoma State Prison.
Now there is a new chapter in the saga that
includes Folsom, Attica, the Tombs, Rahway, and
a great many more.
The situation at McAlester was hardly unique
Built in 1907, the prison was
designed to accommodate a
maximum of 1500 inmates,
yet officials admit that only
a few months ago there were
almost 2300 men housed in
Oklahoma State Prison. The
total was in the process of
being reduced when the prisoners resorted to viplence,
yielding the death of three
inmates at last count
The oppressive 100degree heat within the nonair-conditioned facility and
the lack of living space are
said to have been factors in
the outbreak. Like every
other state legislature in the
country, the Oklahoma law
makers are tight-fisted when
it comes to running their
penal system. Caught in the
recent spurt of reform, however, they voted a 100% increase in prison funds,
though acknowledging that
the outlay is by no means
sufficient.

New York State Special Commission on Attica
quotes a headline appearing in The New York
Times in 1931: “Attica Prison to be Convict’s
Paradise.
The article called attention to a new enlightened attitude on the part of penologists. A cafeteria with food under glass, recreation rooms, the
provision of every prisoner with his own room,
and adequate ventilation and sunlight heralded
the new prison concept.

Yet to presiding Supreme

been charged with crimes.
We’re not trying what caused

claims the Governor had reneged on a promise to the

A paradise?
Attica Prison was to be a showcase for the
New York State Prison System. Ironically enough,
it was built as an answer to the wave of prison
riots in the 1920’s, allegedly caused by “inhuman

Jelinek, “turned the court into an armed camp.” A metal

where all legal staff and observers must submit to frisks

scuffle ensued inside the
courtroom resulting in four

question rooted in the minds
of the defense staff and defendants is whether or not
the Wyoming County Grand
Jury will see fit to indict correction officers
accused by inmates of violent harrassment after
the retaking of the prison. The State Commission
in its report recognized that prisoners bore the
brunt of vindictive unlawful acts committed by
correction officers during the search and relocation process.
Judge Ball claims that the Attica defendants
will be treated justly before the law. The defendants and their counsel are anxiously waiting.

The facts at McAlester
clearly relate, to the Attica
tragedy of two years ago this
September. The Oklahoma
affair seems minor, of course,
when compared to Attica,
where 43 men died in the
four-day rebellion. Attica appears to have become a
symbol for many prisoners of
their effort to exercise basic
human rights while under confinement. The obvious similiarities between McAlester, Oklahoma
and Attica, N.Y. should not be startling.

The pre-trial proceedings concerning crimes
allegedly committed during the Attica insurrection have been continuing intermittently for over
a month now in New YOrk State Supreme Court
in Buffalo.
The defense has been hampered by time constraints, the difficulty of meeting with clients,
many of whom are constantly transferred from
one state prison to another, a lack of funds,
geographic limitations posed for out-of-state defense lawyers, the crucial issue of access to important
evidence thus far monopolized by the prosecution,
and alleged bugging and/or
ransacking of the offices of:
Donald L. Jelinek, the defense coordinator for the
Attica Brothers, Gerald
Lefcourt. a prominent leftist

Notes the McKay Commission: “When Attica
opened there was no cafeteria with food under
glass, no recreation room, no automatic signal
system, and no sunlight streaming into the cells.
There was, in fact, nothing but another huge,
foreboding prison.” Attica was only another
maximum-security facility emphasizing discipline,
boredom, and deprivation.

Kid s play*

Day camp offersfun and jobs
A group of two hundred youngsters congregated
on a large field at Bennett Beach Park in Angola,
New York last Tuesday to engage in the frivolous art
of having fun. Surrounded by a number of
overgrown kids, otherwise known as counselors, the
youths engaged in numerous activities ranging from
massive tug-of-war matches to flowing games of
“water worm.”
Yet whether they knew it or not, both the
youngsters and counselors were taking part in the
City of Buffalo’s first official day camp. Initiate;
under the auspices of Mayor Stanley Makowski’s
Summer Youth, Program, the camp has become the
most recent attempt by the city to break the
monotony of Buffalo summers for local youth.
‘This being the first day camp the city has ever
run has made it a new experience for us all,” said
William Buyers, head of the Summer Youth
Program. “It has been a good experience though, and
I’m glad the city got involved in it. It has given us
the satisfaction of knowing that those children who
usually don’t get the chance to get out of the city
will be able to derive some enjoyment from the day
camp.”

of how the community can benefit from the efforts
of University students.
Concerning the camp itself, Mr. Saleh expressed
satisfaction concerning the response from the
community. He claimed the turnout of local youth
for the program has been well above expectations

Good Turnout
“One of our initial concerns,” Mr. Saleh said,
“was a fear that little interest would be generated in
a program that was less than two weeks old, and at
one point I was praying for a 20% turnout for the
first day of camp. Instead we have been running a 50
to 80% turnout, which is above my most generous

expectations.”

“The main things we’re concerned about with
this camp is that the campers have a good time,” said
assistant direct Peggy Span. “We bus them out here
from all over the city, and the campers really enjoy
getting away.
‘‘When the kids are having a good time the camp
doesn’t even seem like work. In fact some of the
counselors who get involved in camp activities seem
to enjoy them as much as any of the campers.”

Social Policy program okayed
by Accreditation Commission
The School of Social Policy and Community
Services has been re-accred by the Council oA Social
Work Education.
In a report to President Ketter, the Council’s
Commission on Accreditation stated: ‘The
educational objectives and the curriculum, in the
process of being examined and modified
give
promise for achieving the goal of preparing
competent social work practitioners.”
Acknowledging the School's substantive efforts
to deal with “major deficiencies” that had been
found in prior reviews, the Commission reported:
“The continued support of the School by the
University’s administration is particularly
noteworthy.”
...

Student participation
However, the report stressed the need for"
increased student participation in school governance.
Additionally, it advocated a more widespread
acceptance of the principle that faculty, students,
and the Dean must share all responsibility for the
creation of a positive learning atmosphere.
The report also requested that the School
develop a system of accountability so its faculty
resources' could be utilized to their fullest potential,
and recommended a more coYnplete development of
written instructional aids and learning resources.
Recognizing that the School was in the process
of rebuilding its program, the Commission said:
‘The renewed vitality and the clear indication of
purposeful direction should auger well for the
realization of the new mission of the School.”
The School was accredited for a three-year
period, but has been asked by the Commission to
submit a report in June, 1976, detailing further
developments in the School and addressing the above
issues.

�Reactionary drug law
In less than one month the most reactionary
drug law in the nation will take effect in New York
State. The virtual elimination of plea bargaining will
frustrate police in their attempts to recruit
informers. Category after category of "mandatory
life" sentences, while politically attractive, remove
any discretion on the part of judges. Two
comparisons tell the story: the same "mandatory
life" penalty for selling a pound or more of a major
narcotic as for possessing two ounces of it; the same
penalty for possessing 1 /8 ounce of heroin and one
ounce of grass. This shocking incongruity fails to
separate the user, usually an addict, from the pusher,
the commercial trafficker who gathers in the profits.
This treatment of the addict as a cnminal is
absolutely deplorable.

Perhaps the public will mistakenly perceive the
new law as "getting tough" on drugs, but the actual
result will be thousands of cases deluging the courts
in persecution of small-time users, thousands of

users can no longer name their contacts in exchange

distortion of reality to say that since addicts have
not utilized state rehabilitation programsfthey must
not want help.

The state's rehabilitation programs are
underfunded and overcrowded, yet still help
thousands. The Governor's "throw'em in jail"
approach is proof that he pays only tip service to
rehabilitation, especially when you consider the jails
he is throwing them in. But politicians do interesting
things when their eyes are on re-election next year as
well as 1976. Mr. Rockefeller obviously cares more
about a "law-and order" reputation of being "tough
on drugs" than about the welfare of the people of
his state. From the man who brought you the Attica

he said, “you can catch the two pieces of ass in the

They stood on their porches, watching and
waving as the processional of cars inched along
Route 14 on the way to Watkins Glen. The residents
of the town surrounding the concert site were
magnificent in their unofficial role as hosts for the
biggest party in the history of the U.S.
Like so many others, we took the
bumper-to-bumper traffic as a signal to begin the
party. Wine bottles Were passed from car to car and
hitch-hikers found instant homes. A couple of hours
and a couple of bottles later, we arrived, greeted by a
hoarse voice shouting, “Beer for dope ... Who wants
to trade beer for dope?”

Watkins Glen irregulars
After a restful night of sleep in the world’s
biggest outdoor dormitory, we awoke to the sound
of marching footsteps. Quickly, we gathered our gear
and fell into line with the Watkins Glen irregulars.
The scene resembled a picture of Washington leading
his troops to Valley Forge. We were fused into one

that a city had sprung up was enhanced. In fact, the
concert site did contain many of the services found
in cities: a mobile hospital; the sheriff and his boys;
a host of vendors. The merchants of our
newly-formed city were not to be outdone. Set-up in
trucks, tents, and even crude wagons, the
merchandise ranged from drugs to drugs. Not quite,
but almost. There were the usual hustling types. The

We stopped around 100 feet from the stage, close

�Albright-Knox storage:
keeping good men down
other works

It was the summer of *72 and I was
standing outside the storage area in the
lower exhibition section of the
Albright-Knox Art Gallery. With me was
Bill Burback, then the assistant curator of
the Gallery, (he has since taken a position
at the Museum of Modern Art in New York
City). Inside the vault, maintenance
personnel were moving out a painting that
I had requested to see: “Summer House”
by Michael Goldberg.
An admirer of Goldberg’s work, I had
found out through researching the
Gallery’s acquisition reports that this
painting was in storage here. It had not
been out on the Gallery'walls for at least
two years. Mr. Burback, a great guy, had
been exceptionally helpful to me in
graciously fulfilling my request to view a
long list of paintings that had not been
shown in public for years.
The maintenance personnel maneuvered
the large piece out of the vault and leaned
it against a wall. On first sight of “Summer
House” many emotions hit the assistant
curator and I at once, but after initial eye—widenings and gapings, Mr. Burback spoke
first. “Wow, what a sense of space,”
(pictorial space) he said, simultaneously
serious and excited. With a few agreeing
nods, and a few more appreciative
comments, we stood looking at the
painting for about fifteen minutes.

not knowing about

by Jeffrey Wedulcr
Spectrum Arts Editor

Unsung, unhung
I suddenly said, “Why isn’t that paintine
up on a wall?” Mr. Burback answered
sympathetically .and with slight
embarrassment (he had no authority as to
what was hung in the Gallery), “I don’t
know.” After a moment of knowing
silence, we both alternately pointed out a
couple of paintings that we thought could
better take up room in the vault to allow
the Goldberg a wall space.
Mr. Burback admitted that • before I
brought “Summer House” to his attention
he did not even know it was in the
collection. But indeed, he did know that it
could not have been displayed in a long
while as it was wedged against the vault
wall under seven other paintings, rendering
it well-nigh inextricable previous to that
day’s concerted effort.
When “Summer House” was returned to
the vault, Mr. Burback had it placed in an
easily accessible position. Therefore, when
the “American Painting and Sculpture
since 1960” show, from the permanent
collection, forced the Gallery to move
much of its downstairs work upstairs, and
‘filler’ was needed downstairs, the
Goldberg was inescapably obvious and the
curator grabbed the now readily movable
work and hung it. Considering that the
painting was too inaccessible before to
even be included in the Gallery’s
“Abstract-Expressionism: First and Second
Generation’’ show, I submitted to a feeling
of public service and personal satisfaction,
for which I must primarily give the credit
to Mr. Burback.
This little story was related to illustrate
a policy which I think amounts to both a
disgrace and an irresponsibility in the
Albright-Knox Art Gallery: infrequent,
inadequate and/or unjustified rotation of
the permanent collection to the point of
virtual loss of certain works to civilization,
often regardless of quality. That additional
item, quality, is especially infuriating when
one views the inordinate' amount of
rubbish which is often given lengthy
presentation.
As I write this, 1 am poring over long
lists of artworks that are probably
unknown to most gallery-goers in Buffalo,
even, avid art enthusiasts. (Consider Mr.
Burback’s situation, an assistant curator

—

and poor rotation.) Let me pick a few
individual examples first, and later proceed
to lists.

Did you know the Gallery owns four
works by Marc Chagall? “Russian Village”
is the one usually up and it is a fine one,
but ‘The Flying Fish” from 1948, a good
painting too, emerged for the first time, in
effect by force, for the “Continental
Painting and Sculpture since 1945” show
last year, and then immediately
disappeared again into the vault.
Chagall’s “Woman and Haystack” was
out for a month or two, startled a number
of visitors by its presence, and sunk out of
sight again, The small oil “Acrobat” has, as
far as I know, not been shown in three
years.
Did you know the Gallery owns two
paintings by Raoul Dufy? I have never seen
either one exhibited. Nor have I ever seen
the Gallery’s small oil by George Grosz.
WeM-known American painters whose
reputations were made between 1850 and
1920 with pieces in the Gallery’s
ownership include Thomas Moran,
Alexander Wyant, William Glackens, and
Maurice Prendergast. 1 have never seen any
of these works exhibited.
American realism from the I940’s is
pretty well represented in the collection
with works by John Atherton, Virginia
Cuthbert, Philip Elliott, Julian Levi,
Reginald Marsh, Abrahanm Rattner, Zoltan
Sepeshy, Walter Steumpfig, Franklin
Watkins, and Karl Zerbe. None of these
have been out for years now. (And I’m
sorry for a list so soon.)
Getting back to individual paintings, I
would guess that few people know the
Gallery owns a second painting by
Abstract-Expressionist Adolph Gottlieb.
“Dialogue” is the perennial display piece,
but “Frozen Sounds II” is a very good
earlier work which was even used as an
illustration in Sam Hunter’s recent book
“American Art of the 20th Century.”
A large painting by Norman Bluhtn, a
major second-generation Action Painter,
was obtained by the Albright-Knox
through a gift no later than 1965. 1 have
been told by Gallery personnel that this
painting was received unstretched, and,
after eight years, that painting has still not
been stretched for display. Incredibly, it is
still rolled up and slashed somewhere in
the storage area.
Present and unaccounted for
That painting by Norman Bluhm might
just as well not exist, for there seems to be
no intention on the part of the
Albright-Knox staff to even properly
prepare the work for public view. Why was
the painting accepted in the first place, if it
was to be ignored after receipt? This is an
insult to the donor, as well as the artist.
An argument may be raised that the
Albright-Knox is simply not large enough
to show everything at once. This is, of
course, trite. Essentially, the real questions
are; How often will works be shown and
for how long?. Then there’s the idea that
works of proven quality should remain,
barring Then there’s idea that works of
proven quality should remain, barring
exceptional circumstances, constantly on
view. Recent removal of most of the
Gallery’s major Abstract-Expressionist
paintings for the Marine-Midland show
demonstrates no adherence to that

principle.

Also, so many inferior works clutter the
lower downstairs gallery walls that one has
difficulty discerning any rationally-based
quality standard for hanging. Two of those
pitiful Argentinian works I mentioned two
weeks ago, including a Spirographer, are up
now. It’s not that I object to these works
ever being hung, but that they are up in

Jimmy Ernst, Paul Nash, and Norman
Bluhm.
Painters like the last four mentioned
usually never get out of the vault except
for last year’s “from the collection” 10th
anniversary shows. But three of the
proceeding artists didn’t make it out
anyhow. And Graves was included in one
show as an Abstract-Expressionist, which
he is not.
Names uncovered
Now, the lists. In addition to those
already mentioned, and taken in categories,
the following are selected artists from the
bulging ranks of those individuals whose
work has been seen, going back at least
three years, only through the “from the
collection” shows (about 85%) or have
remained out for about a month or so
exclusive of such shows (15%). Also, some
of the names to be mentioned have never
been seen hanging in at least three years.
1) American (and 3 Canadian)
Abstract-Expressionist or -imagist
painters, first and second generation, and
related movements: Norman Biuhm,
Paul-Emile Borduas, Joan Brown,
Lawrence Calcagno, Giorgio Cavallon,

are only incidental, they are annoying. That they were not
cut confirms the basic obviousness of the attempt.

Why talk about The Sunshine Boys a current
Broadway play by Neil Simon? In fact, since New York is
hundreds of miles away, why talk about anything on
Broadway?
If the trend toward Simon’s plays continues (and
there is no reason to suppose it will cease), then chances
are that the play will eventually be adapted into a movie
th$t everyone with $2.50 can see. Indeed, the ending of
The Sunshine Boys is so appropirate, in terms of situation
possibilities, that it is even a good bet that the story might
be Simqnized into a television series a’ la The Odd Couple.
So, even if the Big Apple isn’t on your immediate
itinerary, just sit tight...
Neil Simon has never been a great writer. He is cotton
candy and ferris wheels. He’s a comical-commercial hall of
distored mirrors. More than anything else, he’s baggy
pants, snappy lines, pies in faces and double takes. He is
burlesque.
Shticky, slick, and frenzied verbal pratfalls compose
the best parts of his previous work. In watching, say Plaza
Suite, the big laughs are refurbished formula gags where a
wilting wife reacts to her smouldering hubby. The Odd
Couple draws much of its impact from the Abbott and
Costello, Laurel and Hardy, Martin and Lewis antics of
Oscar and Felix. Tossing linguini against the wall with an
off-stage CCCCCRRRRRAAAAAASSSSSHHHHH is only
slightly subtle slapstick.

To decline poise
Sure, burlesque is obvious and maybe this sort of
thing can work in a vaudevillian context. And sure, The
Sunshine Boys is pseudo-burlesque, but it does not work
here. Why? Hmmm
In the play’s plot, Lewis and Clark never do get on
that CBS-TV special because they quarrel too much in
rehearsal. Instead, the network substitutes an old tape of
them doing their act. Maybe we should have had the good
fortune for this to happen with the play itself. That is,
maybe personal problems should have made its production
impossible so that films of old comic routines might have
been shown. And this is not written to be clever or cruel.

,

...

himself worked in burlesque. Type-casting, right? Wrong
Albertson is loveable, endearing and entirely sympathetic
while Willie (his character) is cantankerous, irritable and
slightly inscrutable.
Nothing is wrong with casting against type if the actor
can make it work. Albertson can not make it work. His
temper tantrums, while deliberately “showy,” are foolishly
gratuitous. They appear to be simply glued on to the
character portrayal like .a false mustache.
-

The unshine boys
The role and the play emerge as simply washed out,
tired. In equating age with weariness, Albertson and his
director, Alan Arkin (both of whom should know better),
are sadly mistaken. Spunk, men more spunk!
A1 Lewis, Willie’s partner, is played by salty Sam
-

‘The Sunshine Boys’ by Simon is
burlesque one dimensionally
-

Anachronisticomics
Keeping all this in mind, it is no wonder that Simon
has finally written a play about what he has always been: a
burlesque comic. Or, more accurately, The Sunshine Boys
is about burlesque comics who have outlived burlesque.
Its story goes that A1 Lewis and Willie Clark were a
team of vaudevillian funny men known years back as
“Lewis and Clark, the Sunshine Boys.” and folks, they
were great. A million belly laughs. They had the humor of
their routines honed to a precise'science. Everything was
figured
right down to the size of the breasts on the
blonde nurse in their “doctor sketch”
and everything
was figured for comedy.
One day, after nearly forty years of yukking it up,
Willie and A1 parted on unfriendly terms. Now, as the play
opens almost twenty years later, they meet to recreate
their act t»n a high-paying CBS special commemorating the
charm and humor of vaudeville.

The one-line boys
In writing The Sunshine Boys Simon goes far in
developing a burlesque motif. Not only are the topic and
gags burlesque, not only does he insert part of Lewis and
Clark’s routine itself into the script, but even the very
structure of the play is like an extended gag sketch. Rarely
are there more than two people on stage at a time.
Characters remain only long enough to do their “bit” with
another player, and then leave as a third character enters
and does his bit with the remaining actor.
And so it goes.
This is clever and when you’re writing popcorn and
cotton candy, such slickness is a great asset. Had the
paralleling of burlesque and the play been accidental, it
would have made Simon look like a fool. However, it is so
clearly and consistently designed that there is no doubt of
what the playwright had in mind.
It is unfortunate that after expending meticulous
energy to design the parallel, Simon insults his audience’s
intelligence in finding it necessary to point it out in no
uncertain terms. Lines like, “Willie, your life is just gags in
a sketch,” leave no room for doubt. While these remarks

In viewing such old tapes,, we must excuse the effort
that must be made in placing them in chronological
perspective by substituting nostalgia for immediacy. Then,
if the routines are funny, it is fine. A tape of Laurel and
Hardy, for instance, is not compared with today’s comedy
as much as it is judged for what it is an hilarious routine
from the past.
—

Nostalgianova
Still, Simon does not (and can not) try to literally
re-create burlesque. What he does is to attempt to mold
something new imbued with a love for something old.
In so doing, he adds one more device: a love-hate
relationship of interdependence between two men. This
worked well for him in The Odd Couple so he tries it
again, Sam.
Cast as Willie (who does more than his share of
love-hating) is Jack Albertson. At one time. Albertson

created such Broadway roles as the Guys and Dolls

somewhat better than Albertson. He is not funnier or more

Willie’s nephew, also does a nice, but uneven job.

�The Impeachment of Richard
JWxon. by Leonard Lurie,
Berkeley Publishing ,1973

I Our Weekly Reader

“We have never before had a
President who admitted
authorizing burglary. We have
never had a President who
admitted he obstructed justice.
We have never had a President
who tried to steal a national
election.”
The first of the Watergate
books is out. An amazing facet of
our techno-society is that a book
can be released in July 1973 in
that deals
paperback, ncf less
with events up to June 1973. One
can almost picture author
Leonard Lurie thinking, “maybe
if I wait two more weeks ... ?”
Yet Lprie’s book is not simply a
rehash of New York Times,
Washington Post and Newsweek
articles. Instead, he places the
issue of impeachment in a proper
historical perspective and places
Mr. Nixon’s Presidential conduct
in the perspective of his political
career. The result is illuminating.
Appropriately, Lurie begins
with the Founding Fathers and
their important inclusion of an
impeachment clause in the
Constitution. This was no casual
decision; “They envisioned the
day when some President would
’high crimes and
be guilty of
misdemeanors’ and they meant to
provide for a way to remove that
individual from office.”
Lurie constructs a convincing
argument that while Americans
have come to regard Presidents as
elected monarchs who are above
criticism, this was the opposite of
the Founding Fathers’ intent:
“The very fact that a man who
would be President is forced to
expose himself to the people
before he can enter that office,
and must do so again in four years
if he wishes to remain, is a mark
of the mistrust the Founding
Fathers placed in human nature.”
As George Mason of Virginia said

in the 1787 debate over the
impeachment clause; “Shall any
man be above. Justice? Above all
dial! that man be above it who
can commit the most extensive
injustice?”
Having traced the historical
foundation of impeachment,
Lurie recounts all the ‘past
instances of impeached officials,
including the politicallymotivated trial of Andrew
Johnson by a Senate which
“contained a high quota of moral
a pit in which no
defectives
common murderer would expect
to be judged.” From here, the
Nixon scholar spends several
chapters describing Richard
Nixon’s political career,
convincingly pointing to several
instances where his behavior
should have led to impeachment.
He demonstrates how Mr. Nixon’s
Presidential misconduct is entirely
consistent with his earlier tactics.
Mr. Nixon’s first campaign
against Jerry Voorhis was
“marked by vilification,
obfuscation, smears and lying.”
Accusing Voorhis of voting “the
Moscow line” in Congress, Nixon
always attacked, never giving his
opponent a chance to strike back,
and spoke “only in generalities
when it came to program.” He
urged “true Democrats” not to
spend their vote on this
Communist.
The red-baiting Alger Hiss trials
and the nickname “Tricky Dick”
led to his campaign against Helen
Gahagan Douglas, whom he
labelled “The Pink Lady” and
Stalin’s bedmate. Also distributing
a sheet “As one Democrat to
Another,” his victory led to his
1 95 2 v i c e p r esid en t ial
nomination. During the campaign,

Nixon as Eisenhower’s hatchet
map. Lurie notes he contributed
nothing but discord: “Despite
four years in the House and two
in the Senate, there was not a
single piece of legislation that
bore his name.”
Many scandals later, in the

Dead freaks, that breed of people who have seen the
Grateful Dead in practically every city on the East
Coast, admitted that their heroes were less than
spectacular.

After an initial period of forced enthusiasm, the
crowd remained still as the Dead droned on. Judging
by the reactions of the Glengoers, the Dead were
going downhill. Even “Truckin,” probably the best
known Dead time, failed to work.
While Fillmore East mentor Bill Graham made a
number of medical announcements, the stage crew
set things up for The Band. “Don’t take the pills
being passed around as THC,“ warned Graham.
“They’ve been analyzed as horse tranquilizers.” That
set off a range of remarks from the crowd (“that’s
how they named Buffalo Downs”) and a startled
neighing from a few dazed individuals.
It Ain’t Me. Babe’
While we were waiting, the traditional “Dylan is
here" rumors began to fly. Once again, we were
disappointed. The Band came out playing “The
Shape I’m In.” For more than an hour, lead guitarist
Jaime Robbie Robertson led The Band through their
old favorites, including “The Night They Drove Old
Dixie Down,” “Stage Fright,” Dylan’s “I Shall Be
Released,” “Up on Cripple Creek” and “The
Weight.”

When the rains came, Robinson continued to
play, but he finally succumbed to warnings from the
stage crew to get off the stage and cover up the
equipment to avoid electrocution. For the next few
hours, the rain and The Band took turns. The Band’s
performance was just a bit below the Rock of Ages
standard, but considering the circumstances, they
were more than adequate.

Filet mignon
After the Band finished, we dug in and waited
for what would be the “filet mignon” on the rock ‘n’
roll menu
The Allman Brothers Band. For a
rain-soaked, mud-drenched hour-and-a-half we
waited Tor the Brothers to set up. During the delay,
thousands covered themselves with plastic wrap, and
we soon resembled a city being attacked by a huge
baggie. After an hour, the crowd became fidgety,
shouting to the stage crew to hurry up. Anticipation
mounted. Every time someone approached the mike.

the crowd would begin their rhythmic clapping and
chanting, only to be dismayed again.
Finally, about 10 p.m., a big roar went up as the
crowd, recognizing the lean, blond-haired figure of
Gregg Allman, knew the time had come. Gregg went
to the mike and thanked the people for waiting. Bill
Graham introduced the Brothers, including two new
members, pianist Chuck Leave) and bass guitarist
Lamarr Williams (who replaces the late Chuck
Oakley.) They opened with a song frpm the

Go, Dickie, go
It was good but not great. The brilliance of the
Allman Brothers Band is such that you must listen to
their songs many times to appreciate its subtleties. In
a sense, their full sound makes them a rock
orchestra. The steady rhythm of the two drummers
and bassist state the basic lines while allowing the
organ, the piano and Dicky Betts’ phenomenal guitar
to take off on brilliant solos.
Dicky Betts deserves special praise. If there was
one star of the day, it had to be Betts. The crowd
roared with each guitar solo. Often during to solos
the guitar seemed to jump, appearing as if Dicky
could no longer contain the strength of the music
within his body alone.
The true artistry of the Allman Brothers is thay
they can play with such power and still maintain a
delicate balance and weaving of all the instruments
necessary for a cohesive sound. Far too many bands
are content to just play all over each other. The key
to the Allman Brothers is that they listen to each
other, wishing to be a unit, not six musicians.
'

invigorating experience
The next three hours were magnificent, both
musically and visually. The Allman Brothers saved
nothing. We heard “Ain’t One Way Out,” “You
Don’t Love Me,” “Elizabeth Reed,” “Midnight
Rider” and countless others. It was an invigorating
experience.
Ironically, the crowd had appeared lifeless a
mere few hours before. But with each song, they
became more and more ecstatic, dancing to the
music and roaring as they recognized each song. The
lights drenched the. band in hues of purple and red
while huge beams of red, white and blue lit up the

skies. The lights and music and crowd appeared to
merge into one ecstatic spirit.

Finally, after combining “Les Brers in A Minor”
and “Elizabeth Reed” into an incredible hour, the
Allman Brothers exited from the stage amidst the
kind of ovation usually reserved for the World
Champion New York Knicks. Minutes later, they
responded to the now delirious crowd’s shouts of
“Whipping Post.”
The next day, we read how Sheriff Maurice
Dean viewed the Watkins Glen event. “Everything
seems to be in order. There is no state of emergency
and everybody seems to be having a good time. For
this amount of people, they’re better behaved than
the 80,000 we get for the Grand Prix."
If Sheriff Dean’s words are indicative of a new
trend, namely one of respect between the “freaks”
and the cops, then the Watkins Glen event represents
more than just a weekend of music and highs.

incredible that this kind of

Lurie observes.
All of ths does not represent

the failure of Richard Nixon.
“This is Richard Nixon’s brand of

delineates almost undeniable
parallels between Nixon’s political

but the following should be stated:
To set the record straight, I wish to point out
that the 16 credits for “peddling through Europe”
(peddling was actually spelled this way in the
student’s request for this independent Studies
project) was not awarded through any of the
Colleges as was stated incorrectly in the interview
report by Mr. Kraftowitz. This project was
approved through a regular academic department.

Total disregard
To the Editor.
Summer is a time of subversion. No one is
around. Ketter tried to reshuffle completely
academic structure in the summer of ’71, and was
put off by the Faculty-Senate Executive
Committee. Gelbaum now is trying the same with
the Colleges.
This usurping of faculty responsibility is
carefully calculated by the administration. Ketter's
motive of reorganization of the faculties was to
break the autonomy of the departments, making
them submit to administrative control. Gelbaum’s
motive of authorizing and budgeting Clifford
Fumas College outside the Collegiate System is
likewise an attempt to force teaching personnel to
conform to the political standards of corporate
administrators.
The Colleges are a grassroots, student-faculty
participatory democracy. The University
community must not let the administration’s
tyranny continue. It is the responsibility of
everyone who cherishes academic freedom to
oppose the ruthlessness of the organized few. The
case of secession of College D is pending before
the appropriate governing body
the
Faculty-Senate. Even if the Senate has to conduct
public hearings into the case, the representative

In 1972, women didn’t take much political
power and the coffee they made out-volumed any
female-formulated policy by the gallons.
However, women in 1972 at last got their feet
wet in the mire of party politics. And, at the same
time, they got their toes burned.
Women entered the 1972 Democratic
Convention with strength and support never
expected nor witnessed previously. 1100 women
served as delegates to the August convention in
Miami.
Much of the women’s showing came from the
National Women’s Political Caucus (NWPC) which
had its beginnings just prior to the Democratic
Convention. This organization has vowed to remain
“multi-partisan" with no formal connection to other
women’s groups or to particular political parties.
The NWPC had three goals in regard to the
National Conventions: I) to increase the visibility of
political women by having convention chairwomen,
either temporarily or permanently; 2) to allow white
males no more than 30% of the seats at each
convention; 3) to have S0% of the delegates to each
convention be women.
Needless to say, these goals were not fully
attained. Women, however, were more visible. Utah’s
Jean Westwood was the first woman to be
chairperson of a top political party. Gloria Steinem
commented that the McGovern-Frascr convention
guidelines which allowed for the increased
representation of women and youths, made the
convention floor “look like a country.” Yet,
appearance was all the convention had. Only the
Democratic image had been changed, not the
attitudes of the powerful nor the accessibility to that
power. As Germaine Greer viewed it: “There was not
a queer basher or a law-and-order addict among
them.”
The issue which provided the greatest
controversy as well as the clearest example of
women’s political inexperience was the so-called
“abortion plank.”
In reality, this platform proposal only generally
stated that “the Democratic Party is opposed to
government interference in the reproductive and
sexual freedom of the individual American citizen.”
This “freedom of choice” plan would apply equally
to a man’s right to have a vasectomy and to a
woman’s right to limit her family size.
The delegates (e.g., Shirley MacLaine) who were
for McGovern first and group interests second felt
that “reproductive freedom” was a state matter and
that its inclusion on a national platform would only
hurt their candidate's chance of election. Even
Shirley Chisolm advised voting candidate lines rather
than “feminist dissension."
Some women felt that because a Democratic
candidate was unlikely to win in 1972, the abortion
plank should be included merely to pave its way as a
campaign issue in 1976. Betty Friedan felt that if
abortion had its initial national exposure in 1972,
“by 1976, politics will have developed a way of
handling it more effectively.
However, these arguments were irrelevant. The
issue involved a right, the right to sexual freedom,
not just a political device conjured up by wild-eyed
promiscuous women. The struggle to make this right
a constitutional reality could have been a rallying
point for both men and women. McGovern would
probably still have lost the election, but not because
of this issue alone. And at least some of the intense
principled campaigning that occurred during the
primaries would have carried over into the national
campaign.
The women were split. Should they follow their
candidate or stick to their issues? Unfortunately, the
word came down from the McGovern staff for
delegates to vote against the “freedom of choice”
plank and the women stuck by their man. As
Germaine Greer observed; ‘The women were cards
in McGovern’s harid, to be led or discarded as he
wished.”
McGovern took for granted that women would
'

choice. Unlike the Democratic right wing,'women
didn’t threaten to withdraw support unless their
issues were included on the party platform. They
didn’t have the political experience to try an
alternative move, such as throwing support to
Humphrey or another candidate.
s
The women refused to get tough in their issue
demands and therefore were virtually overlooked.
Women’s activist Florence Kennedy summed it up:
“Honey, if you’ll hick for a dime, you can’t
complain because somebody else is getting a fur
coat.”
The women also failed to stick by their guns in
the South Carolina credentials challenge. The NWPC
demanded that representation on the South Carolina
delegation be proportional to their population; 51%
women, 49% men. The McGovern staff again took
the women’s .vote for granted and instructed the
delegates to oppose the proportional proposal. The
delegates complied, the South Carolina challenge was
defeated and the women felt betrayed.
The women at the Democratic Convention
forfeited a strong stand on the issues they wanted
others to support strongly. They gave in to a
candidate, instead of negotiating with him.
Despite this, the Democratic Convention did
adopt the most comprehensive women’s rights plank
ever to be found in a major party platform. The
Democrats pledged support for the Equal Rights
Amendment and agreed to fight discrimination
against women in education, employment, salaries
and promotions.
The mistakes that women made during the
convention were repeated later in the campaign by
McGovern himself. Just as women forfeited their
issues and were shafted, so did McGovern fail to
capitalize on women’s issues and eventually, was
abandoned by the women.
After the Democratic Convention, McGovern
continued to poll stronger among women than
among men. Yet, by September 1, a Harris poll
showed a definite change; women now preferred the
incumbent Nixon to McGovern, 63 to 29 per cent.
What could account for women’s failure to vote
for the man with a consistently good record on
women’s issues? Certainly, much of the defection to
the Nixon camp may be attributed to the President’s
enhanced imqge as a statesman and peacemaker. The
repeated announcements of “peace is at hand”
surely won over a decisive number.
But could McGovern have lost some female
support simply because he took the women’s vote
for granted? Shifts of stance and underplaying child
care, welfare and anti-discrimination measures play
have lost him some needed votes.
Only one major speech was delivered on child
care during the campaign and that was given by
Sargent Shriver. Welfare was isolated as purely a
racial issue instead of driving home the fact that the
majority of welfare recipients are white and female.
McGovern might have created a more receptive
audience for his welfare measures if he had
emphasized that most married women are only one
man away from public assistance.
Having personally vetoed a child care bill, Nixon
was very vulnerable on that issue
as he was on his
grudging support of the Equal Rights Amendment
and his rejection of reproductive freedom measures.
Yet these issues were never the object of major focus
for the McGovern campaign.
For a running mate, McGovern chose Thomas
Eagleton partially for his ticket-balancing qualities.
He was a Catholic from a border Southern state who
had good relations with labor and was an impressive
campaigner. The runner-up in the vice-presidential
bid, Sissy Farenthold, was also a Catholic from a
Southern state who had accrued over a million votes
in a Texas gubernatorial race. Furthermore, she had
put together a coalition of women, blacks, Oucanos*
and workers, which is exactly the type of litical

�Two Sub-Board I members
reply to UUAB commentary
To the Editor.

Mr. Jeffrey Wechsler’s commentary on
Sub-Board I’s activities or rather that of its
executive members filled me with much joy.
Especially his opening statement, quote; “The
interesting thing about facts is that no matter how
much one tries to deny them, they remain the
facts.” Unquote. Had Mr. Wechsler only followed
through his dissertation on facts, it would have
made for a far more factual commentary. As it
turned out, it only conveyed the naivete of the
individual purporting to have knowledge of such
matters.

He goes on to say that: ‘Through careful
apportioning of its budget, it can provide all these
services, despite the fact that some of these
cultural pursuits, by their very nature, are not
money-making pursuits."
Now, just what is meant by “through careful
apportioning of its budget” is left unanswered. If
it is considered that (1) the existence of a well-laid
plan is the major step toward achieving
coordination, executives are forced to think of the
relationship of individual operations, other
operations, and the student governments as a
whole; (2) that budgets help to restrain the
empire-building efforts of executives; that budgets
broaden individual thinking by helping to remove
unconscious biases on the part of individuals in the

position to make decisions; and finally that
budgets help to search out weaknesses in the
organizational structure. If the administration of
budgets isolates problems of communication, of
fixing responsibility, and of working relationships,
then I wholeheartedly agree. But as it was left
unanswered, I can only presume Mr. Wechsler has
no knowledge of this matter.
Mr. Wechsler further states that Sub-Board 1 is
no longer interested in cultural service to the
campus community. I presume he has asked each

member of the executive committee of Sub-Board

To the Editor:

I would like to reply to Mr. Wechsler’s article
in last week’s The Spectrum, which seemed to
single me out as the “Arch-Villain" of Sub-Board
I did not say at any time that “I know what
graduate students want and they don't want art,

literature, dance or drama.”
I stated that the results of a questionnaire
conducted in graduate departments last spring by
Mr. John Greenwood and myself indicated in a
majority of the responses, the following ranking of

The
"Considering Mr. Janson's letter let me say at the
outset, as startling as it may seem, that i heartily
applaud and commend Mr. Janson on an excellent
example of logical, rational writing. On reading the
letter 1 noticed many thoughtful observations and
important points, and then visited Mr. Janson that
same day. As I somewhat suspected from the
underlying direction of his arguments in his letter,
we are basically of the same mind on the conduct

and result of the Sub-Board I “discussion” of the
UUAB budget and on Sub-Board I procedural tactics
in general. I shall elaborate on this in two parts.
1. Individuals and 'the whole'
On a one-to-one basis, this means that criticism
directed toward an individual should be responsible
in the first place, and the ‘target’ of such, criticism
(i.e. differing opinion) should seriously scrutinize
' and give due consideration to the ideas of others
without taking egocentric or paranoiac attitudes.
As we quickly agreed, neither Mr. Janson or
myself take our commentaries as being “out to get”
each other. (And please, Mr. Kobas, 1 have
absolutely no animosity toward you, and a
re-reading of my article will reveal that if an
“Arch-Villain” is mentioned therein, it is assuredly
not you.)
Any individual in office in any organization
must be considered a part of the organization as a
whole, whether he agrees witbjts actions or not. As
is well evidenced in the letter, Mr. Janson iro« not

agree as an individual with many actions of
Sub-Board I as a whole. For example; “1 do not
embrace a ‘blatant student-be-damned’ attitude and I
resent the fact that any or all questions as to the
propriety of expenditures by anyone cannot be
questioned or reviewed. This would, in my opinion,
constitute a students-be-damned attitude.”

Page

twelve The Spectrum -Ft iday, 3 August 1973
.

and that that is the express opinion of each of
them? I can say, unequivocally that it certainly is
not my opinion, and 1 have never expressed such
to him nor to anyone else. I do not embrace a
“blatant students-be-damned attitude” and I
resent the fact that any or all questions as to the
propriety of expenditures by anyone cannot be
questioned or reviewed. This would, in my
opinion, constitute a students-be-damned attitude.
I would greatly appreciate for Mr. Wechsler to
bring forth any and all evidence indicating that
individuals on Sub-Board I have been dedicating
their lives to amassing funds to the detriment of
others. We, or at least, I may have a different
opinion on material wealth as a means to
self-satisfaction, but that is only a philosophical
question which has no bearing on the facts here
nor is it relevant.
Mr. Wechsler also states that: “Facts and logic
have no place in these people’s lives.” Please point
out to me where facts and logic were used in his
commentary. Data please!!.
Mr. Wechsler, again quotes from another
source, that of Mr. Sargent, stating that he was
amazed at the lack of financial and business
I presume
knowledge and the naive attitudes
meaning members of Sub-Board 1.
I gather that Mr. Wechsler and Mr. Sargent
together could better facilitate the on-goings of
Sub-Board I, if in fact Mr. Sargent made such an
opinion at all. However, I would guess it only was
an opinion with little forethought beforehand.
However, I would more than appreciate any help
or suggestions on how to better meet the needs of
the students by better disbursement of funds.
In light of this, I would like to venture an
opinion not on hard facts. Budgeting is too often
looked upon from a purely mechanistic viewpoint.
The human factors in budgeting are more
important than the accounting techniques. The
success of a budgetary system depends upon its
acceptance by the student members who are
-

priorities: first, was “Health Services” (which
include day care and birth control clinics). Next
was “Housing,” followed by Concerts,
Coffeehouses, etc. This was followed by Literary
and Performing Arts.
Incidently, this questionnaire was conducted
by the GSA, NOT Sub-Boar41. In fact, at the time
the poll was conducted, I was not a member of

Sub-Board I-.
At the present time, this is the only recent
poll of graduate student opinion as to how their
fees are being used that 1 know of.
If Mr. Wechsler has any ideas on how to

affected by the budgets. Attitudes ideally are
cooperative and cost-conscious.
Budgets place individuals responsible in the
spotlight. The natural reaction to restriction, to
criticism, and to control is resistance and
self-defense. The job of education and selling is
overwhelmingly important here. Too many
individuals think that budgets represent a
penny-pinching, negative brand of board members
pressure. To them, the word budget is about as
popular as, say, stipend decrease. Ideally, company
personnel should understand and accept the role
of budgets as positive vehicles for divisions
improvement.

Properly used, it is simply a systematic tool
for establishing standards of performance, for
providing motivation, for gauging results, and for
helping-atudent governments advance toward its
objectives. A budgetary program per se is not a
remedy for weak managerial talent, faculty
or a poor information system.
Finally, to say, and I quote: “When irrational,
unfeeling individuals, refusing input from any
source, try to set themselves up as gods, it is time
for some rational, responsible iconoclasm." I fully
agree with this statement by Mr. Wechsler, Only I
wish he would have elaborated further as to where
he would find such rational individuals, aside from
himself, of course.
I have always maintained that anyone could
ask to meet with me and discuss any matter they
chose, and I would be more than willing to
entertain any factual input. Mr. Wechsler need
only to have asked his editor, Howie Kurtz, if I
had previously expressed this to Mr. Kurtz at a
meeting we had. But of course, who needs all the
small details about factual events?

Monte Janson
Student Affairs Vice President
Graduate Student Association

conduct a more accurate and efficient poll of
graduate students, I would really appreciate
hearing about it. If he bears too much animosity
towards me, 1 am sure that other members of the
GSA would be anxious to hear about it.
s
Mr. Weschler was probably quite angered by
the budget cuts but this anger does not give him
the right to put words in a person’s mouth by the
addition or deletion of pertinent phrases or
statements.

George Kobas
Vice Chairman
Sub-Board I, Inc.

Artseditor responds
As verified in our conversation, this points out
that Mr. Janson decries the close-minded stance
taken by Sub-Board I (ignoring student input,
limiting discussion to ten minutes). Unfortunately,
Mr. Janson could not attend that meeting. If he did,
I feel that a good deal of this travesty and mockery
of administration may have been*avoided.
2. Facts and responsibility
The first part of Mr. Janson’s letter is primarily
a personal disclaimer of the attitudes evidenced by
Sub-Board I as a whole. Now please read the third
and the last five paragraphs of that letter very
carefully. Its essential idea is a plea for something
which Mr. Janson and 1 both think is sorely lacking
in student government: rational, responsible
compilation and communication of the facts.
Facts are as difficult to obtain from student
organizations here, without loss or distortion of
material, as opened soup can lids once they have
slipped to the bottom of the can. There are two
causes involved, the first being poor procedure and
record-keeping. An example is, as hard as it may be
to believe, the Sub-Board I minutes for the July 19
meeting do not include the vole count on the UUAB
budget; it merely states that the budget was passed.
In other words, there is no record of the number
of votes for, against, or abstaining, or how each
individual voted. This seems a nice, easy way to hide
the facts from persons interested in investigating the
matter, (and perhaps ease the voters’ consciences) by
simply not keeping a record of the facts. This is, at
best, administrative incompetency.
The second cause is the egocentric, personal,
and political motives for many of the decisions and
claims made in student-run organizations. As said
earlier, many individuals, when questioned about the
facts will assume the “He’s out to get me” posture,

act irrationally and/or arrogantly, and never consider
for a moment that these questions’ purpose is the
simple inquiry into facts relevant to the good of the

students.
Also, individual irresponsibility (in the form of
personal pet programs backed whether or not they
benefit the campus community as a whole) should
not be tolerated, but have been in the past. All
budgets and programs should be open to extremely
careful questioning and scrutiny. If members of
student organizations don’t like this harder,
responsible approach because it will make them
work (gasp!) for their stipends, they should get out
or be put out.
I believe I may say that Mr. Janson has
apparently experienced as much, and probably more,
disgust with Sub-Board tactics than I. The very fact
that Mr. Janson expressed an opinion on the matter,
writing as an individual not present at the meeting
but part of Sub-Board I as a whole, (especially
considering that not one other Sub-Board member,
besides Mr. Kobas, has deigned to justify their
actions) illustrates a great sense of responsibility,
lacking in many others.
In conclusion, notice in our respective
commentaries that our basic points concerning
student government are absolutely
non-contradictory, and realize that individual names
as vehicles for communicating opinions for the
general good are, once that capacity is accomplished,
irrelevant.
And I am glad to report that both Mr. Janson
and 1 have agreed to do whatever we can (together if
needs be!) to help bring rational responsibility into
the affairs of student organizations. We hope others
will also react to correct this irresponsibility, as
recently epitomized by Sub-Board I’s July meeting.

Impeachment measure proposed
A resolution calling for the impeachment of President Nixon “for
high crimes and misdemeanors” has. been introduced by Massachusetts
Congressman Robert Drinan. Noting that the Watergate affair alone did
not prompt him to submit the resolution, Father Drinan, a Jesuit
priest, said he decided to offer the impeachment measure only after it
was revealed that President Nixon conducted a series of secret bombing
raids over Cambodia for 14 months prior to April 30, 1970. According
to reports, it appears unlikely that the resolution will be acted upon
soon, although there is speculation that the resolution could prompt
reaction from representatives who have so far only toyed with the idea
of impe|chment.

Haldeman challenged
Former Presidential aide H.R. Haldeman was challenged this
week by the Senate Watergate committee regarding his recount of the
secret White House tapes of President Nixon’s Watergate conversations.
Committee chairman Sam Ervin charged that Mr. Haldeman’s
testimony was a part of a “planned action” by the
White House to
report a favorable version of the taped conversations.
Troop amendment defeated
The House voted 280— 130 this week against an amendment
that
would have prohibited American troops from being stationed in any
foreign country that “was spending a smaller percentage of its gross
national product on defense than the United States was.” The
amendment’s defeat, seen as a vote of confidence for the
Administration’s overseas policies, was primarily aimed at lowering the
300,000 troops now stationed in Western Europe.
Nixon to visit Japan
President Nixon is planning a trip to Japan within the next 18
months with Emperor Hirohito visiting the United States sometime in
1974. The exchange of visits is an effort to improve relations between
the two countries which have deteriorated in the past two years
because of economic issues. If the visits take place, Mr. Nixon will be
the first incumbent President to visit Japan. Both visits are expected to
stir controversy in Japan.
Tricia sends her “undies”
Tricia Nixon Cox brings her laundry down from New York to be
done by the White House laundresses. But only her “finer things,” says
a spokesman for the first family. The practice has caused
disgruntlement among some White House servants.
Civilian surveillance denounced
A Senate investigating unit Tuesday condemned what it called
the Army’s massive and unrestrained surveillance of civilians during the
late I960’s. The Senate constitutional rights subcommittee said the
surveillance violated First Amendment rights of free speech and
association and was not authorized by law. Chairman Sam Ervin
announced he was introducing, with 33 senators as co-sponsors, a bill
to ban all monitoring of civilian political activity by military agents.
The subcommittee said that at the height of the monitoring,
the Army
engaged.over 1500 plainclothes agents to collect information that was
placed in scores of data centers throughout the country.

Research grants have been
awarded to seven graduate
students. The Graduate Student
Association (GSA) has granted a
total of $1303 in research funds
under its newly-created Graduate
Resources Access Development
Project (GRAD).
The project was started in
response to the sharp decrease in
federal funding of graduate
students and their research
endeavors.
John Greenwood, GRAD
director, and a Research Council
of 15 graduate students reviewed
14 proposals with $3450 in
budget requests. The project was
given $2500 by the University
Allocation Committee for Special
Funds with which to start funding
student research. The $1200
which was not allocated will now
be combined with $5000 voted by
the GSA Senate for grants to be
awarded in September and March
of the coming sjhool year.
The ceiling on awards is now
$250 per student. However, this
limit may be expanded if award
funds are* significantly increased.
All graduate students who are
completing their degree are
eligible to apply. Special
consideration is given to students
who demonstrate need and have
made prior attempts to seek
resources on their own.

Equipment purchases are given
priority since the GSA will retain
the hardware in a GRAD
Equipment Inventory for
requisiton by subsequent student
researchers. In addition, Mr.
Greenwood said, academic areas
which do not normally receive
research funding will also receive a
somewhat higher priority for
awards.
According to Mr. Greenwood,
the goal of the program is to
enhance the opportunities of
graduate students to produce, high
quality research. He said GRAD is
now trying to establish contracts
with industry and government to
enlarge the award fund and to
place graduates in pre or
post-graduate positions.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;

Delicate dealin s in a nuclear ame of chess
BOlton Note: The recent French nuclear explosion in
the atmosphere at Mururoa Atoll near Tahiti, only-days
after an underground Soviet blast and an atmospheric
test by China, has redirected world attention to the
nuclear arms race. The following analysis attempts to
provide some perspective on the worldwideatomic race.

by Howie Kurtz

Ediior-in-Chief
An accepted tenet of the nuclear age is that the next
war will be the last one. Most people therefore don’t
speculate much about a coming nuclear confrontation,
feeling that if it comes, we won’t be around to worry
about it.
Government officials, however, are constantly
considering such factors as first- and second— strike
capability, multiple warheads, and deterrents. Most
Americans expect that we would not be the ones to start
such a war, since it would obviously lead to the
destruction of our civilization. They expect that we
would only use nuclear weapons if the Soviets attacked
us first.
Such a view overlooks three things. First, the United
States is the only country that has used nuclear weapons
against another country, Jhe annihilation of Hiroshima

and Nagasaki in Japan. Second, history has shown that
every time a new and frightening weapon has been
invented, if has inevitably been used (nerve gas,
biological warfare, torture methods, etc). The UJS. has
perhaps been the worst culprit of conventional atrocities
in the lastdecade.
Third, the emerging multipolar world is one in
which security for the non-nuclear countries means
protection by a nuclear power. Our defense treaties with
Western Europe place them snugly under our nuclear
umbrella. What would the UJS. do if the Soviet Union
invaded Germany and France tomorrow by conventional

meaqs?
It is easy to say that this will never happen, that
Russia knows it would mean the mutual destruction of
our societies if it were to blatantly attack our allies. Yet
the heads of the NATO governments clearly regard such

an eventuality as possible. They regard the threat that
the US. may use nuclear weapons in time of war as the
key NATO deterrent. And perhaps they fear not a
conventional attack as much as subtler, perhaps
economic, pressure.
It is in this light that the recent US.—Soviet
diplomatic manuevering, culminating in the
Nixon-Brezhnev agreement to prevent nuclear war,
must be viewed. The agreement obliges the two
countries to immediately enter into “urgent
consultations” if relations between them or between one
of them and a third country “appear to involve the risk
of nuclear conflict.” The New York Times recently
disclosed that the Soviets tried to include a clause which
would have called for joint intervention by the US. and
U.SS.R. in any world conflict area; in effect, a proposal
for a two-power police role’. The US. rejected the
clause.

Aimed at China
The Soviets tried to sell a similar clause in the
Strategic Arms Limitation Talks (SALT-I) in July 1970,
and experts agree that in both cases the clause, although
applicable anywhere, was clearly aimed at China. The
U.SJS.R. and China share thousands of miles of common
border, as well as mutual paranoia and fear of each
other. There has been much speculation lately that the
Soviets will soon attempt nuclear castration of China
before the Chinese can adequately build up its nuclear
capability to survive a Soviet first strike and retaliate. If
this all seems like science fiction, imagine how the U.S.
would react if a hostile Mexico were about to achieve
full nuclear capability. The Chinese should achieve an
adequate deterrent against a Soviet first strike very soon,
although development of missiles which could reach the
U.S. is years away.
The U. S. resisted the joint intervention clause, and
the agreement as interpreted by Henry Kissinger is a sort
of formal pledge to use the Washington—Moscow hot
line as need arises. Mr. Kissinger described the pledge as
operative in peacetime to help prevent war, but not
limiting the behavior of either country should war break

Abandoned original plan
Realizing funds for construction would not be

original plan and bagan looking at several large
commercial apartment buildings near campus. ‘But
after speaking with many Buffalo realtors, local
politicians, and Common Councilmen, we ran into a
whole string of problems,” Mr. Bealle said.
One such stumbling block, he indicated, was an
obscure City of Buffalo housing ordinance stating
that no more than two unrelated individuals may live
together in an apartment. “We were able to beat the
ordinance,” Mr. Bealle asserted, “by directing our
search towards the purchase of a boarding house that
would have individual rooms with common areas.”
However, many of the available buildings were
either too big, too expensive, or too far from
campus. Finding itself besieged by difficulties,
Scholastic Housing sought help by joining NASCO,
the North American Student Cooperative
Organization.
It was through consultations with NASCO, Mr.
Bealle explained, that the decision was made to
establish a cooperative. “We liked what they said
about the co-op philosophy, especially its
leftist-oriented economic approach,” he said.
After receiving advice from individuals who had
belonged to successful co-ops in Berkeley, California,
Ann Arbor, Michigan, and Baltimore, Maryland, the
housing corporation contacted Monroe Real Estate
and arrangements were finalized to purchase a
building at 252 Crescent Avenue.

�CWfY admissions

Judge halts bombing

doororrevolving door?

Open

Measuring the success or failure of a program,
especially one as large and diverse as the City
University of New York’s (CUNY) open admissions
policy, requires probing beneath the surface
statistics.
Last week it was revealed that over half the
students admitted under open admissions were no
longer attending the college they had entered.
Furthermore, it was predicted that two-thirds of die
first class admitted under the policy three years ago
will drop out before obtaining a degree. Yet, despite
these portentous figures, the program has been
deemed in many ways a remarkable success.
According to CUNY Chancellor Robert Kilbee:
“Even if only 15 or 20 percent of those who
ordinarily would never have gotten a chance to go to
the City University obtain degrees, I would regard
that as a significant accomplishment. After all, we’re
talking about human lives.”

today.

The ruling was the result of a suit by freshman
Representative Elizabeth Holtzman (D., Brooklyn)

and three Air Force fliers based in Guam. Expresaing
pleasure at the “momentous decision,” Ms.
Holtzman claimed H reconfirmed the constitutional
principle that “no American lives can be sacrificed
and
no taxpayers’ money can be spent on a
military effort that is not approved by Congress.”

Coordinator

Richard Cahill said the program cannot be judged
solely by academic standards. Even if a student
drops out after six months, he at least had the
opportunity to.experience college life, he said.

Revolving door?
The open admissions policy guarantees all high
school graduates, regardless of *their scholastic
record, admission to a unit in the CUNY system.
According to Dr, Kibbee, the dropout rates.of
students in this program are in line with national
college rates and cannot be used to .determine the
program’s success. The criteria for judging the
program should be what the college does or does not
do for its students, he said.
Critical to the open admissions policy are
remedial programs designed to compensate for a
student’s lack of adequate pre-college preparation.
But despite these programs, critics contend that the
open door is acutally a revolving door. Responding,
Dr. Kibbee noted:
“We don’t have the secret for taking a freshman
who reads on an eighth grade level and getting him
to the point where he can graduate like everyone
*

else.”
CUNY officials have warned against “simplistic”
interpretations of the dropout rates. Asked one
official: “If a student attends a community college
for a year and then leaves because the program he
has enabled
has taken
say, in air conditioning
him to get a job that he wants, is it fair to say that
the student or the college has failed because he did
-

not stay longer?”

Unfair standards

He also asked why a student who drops out of a
senior college in his third or fourth year is
considered a failure, while a student who obtained a
two-year associate degree from a community college
is regarded as a success.
A study on the policy by the American Council
on Education found that nationally, CUNY had a
higher proportion of students from poor families
with low high school grades. These students are
considered more likely to drop out of school.
Additionally, the lack of financial assistance to these
students while in school often results in them leaving
to go to work.
CUNY’s changeoever from selective to open admissions has brought charges that the new policy has
caused a decline in academic standards. However, the

Council’s study refuted this, stating that “both the
evidence and common sense indicated that there is

about the lowering of standards.”
Explaining that a form of open admissions exists
within the SUNY system, Ray Glass of SASU said
this is carried out in two phases. Community colleges
must guarantee admission to students in their local
area; and in turn, senior colleges must find a place
for community college graduates.

throughout the state for public and private schools.
Commenting on the tuition policy, SUNY Student
Communications Coordinator Russ Gugino said that
“higher education is getting so expensive that it is no
longer possible to think of no-tuition in realistic
terms.” Presently, upstate students are footing the
bill for those attending CUNY schools, he said.
It is feared the tuition proposal will “squeeze
out” middle income students since present forms of
financial aid, such as Regents scholarships and
incentive awards, would be eliminated. According to
Mr. Gugino, financial aid will be determined by a
graduated income scale and will depend on a
student’s need. Most likely only those in the lowest
income groups will be assisted financially, he said. In
addition, some feel the proposal favors private
colleges at the expense of public institutions.
The proposal also recommends a shift from the
state’s current policy of granting funds to schools in
favor of giving them directly to students. The state
feels funds are easier to regulate when given to
students, rather than to institutions, Mr. Gugino
said.
One CUNY official commented that if the new
tuition policy is adopted, open admissions would be
seriously impaired.

The U.S. Government has until 4 p.m. today to

“There is no existing congressional authority to
order military forces into combat in Cambodia or to
release bombs over Cambodia,” said Federal District
Court Judge Orrtn G. Judd in Brooklyn, making the
first judicial decision challenging the President's
power to commit troops to combat without
authorization by Congress. U.S. Attorney Robert

West Europeans fear that the agreement could

Europe was attacked by conventional means. Time
Magazine reported that the nuclear agreement
brought “a collective gasp in Western Europe.
Almost everyone believes that DeGaulle is now

nuclear destruction to defend Europe, or risk New
York to save Hamburg.” West German Foreign
Minister Walter Scheel recently emphasized to
President Nixon German fears that the agreement
robs NATO of nuclear credibility and opens the door
to Soviet blackmail.
At to whether the US. would risk nuclear war
to defend Europe, the feeling is-that as long as our
nuclear deterrent remains adequate, the Soviets

to never have to make such a choice. Conventional

shouldering more of the financial burden for its own The other side
While cold war mentality dictates that it would
be “the other side” that strikes first, nuclear
deterrence renders that irrelevant, since each country
knows it will be destroyed even if it strikes first. To
the Soviets, America is the other side the side that
has already used nuclear weapons in 194S, and the
side that rejected a clause that would remove its
option of using nuclear weapons in wartime. War
with China is also a possibility they live with every
day. From, the American perspective, the Soviet

For most Americans the days of nuclear

While the first two might be vulnerable to a Soviet
first strike, the Polaris submarines, which can reach
Moscow from a range of 2,500 nautical miles, are
virtually invulnerable. The US. is also in the final
stages of placing multiple warheads, which can be

In loco parentis’ rule
facing extinction soon
by Gary Cohn
Contributing Editor

Traditionally, universities have
maintained an in loco parentis
status over their undergraduate
students. However, the era of
parental control by universities to
a dose, according to a report
recently issued by the Coundl of
Student Personnel Associations in
Higher Education.
The author of the report.
University of Georgia professorD.
Parker Young said the 1971
Amendment giving 18 year olds
the right to vote in federal
elections initiated legislation and
court action dealing with a variety
of other rights for 18-21 year olds.
This resulted in a redefinition of
the legal age, and 18 rather than 21
is now considered adulthood in
many states, including New York.
Because almost all of the
nation’s undergraduates fall into
the 18-21 year old range,
universities in these states can no
longer apply the in loco parentis
doctrine to their students.
What this will mena, according
to Dr. Young, is a change in the
relationship between the student
and his university on “almost any
campus activity.”
Contending that colleges
should no longer be permitted to
mail grades and/or disciplinary
reports to parents, Dr. Young
cautioned the Council of Student
Personnel Associations: “There
seems to be no legal justification
for the disclosure of such
information to parents or
guardians unless permission is
granted by the student."
Students may also sue a college
or be sued by a school without
involving the parents as legal
guardians. According to Time
magazine (July 9, 1973), schools
are more vulnerable to legal action
by students themselves,
specifically against professors who
“skip classes or arbitrarily grade,
or administrators who close
buildings as a result of
demonstrations by other

(BUYING
We offer

students."
The concept of'financial aid
may also have to be reworked, Dr.
Young stated. Although financial
aid has long been based on the
“Parent’s Confidnetial
Statement," student may now
claim that only their financial
status is relevant. If this claim is
upheld, financiallindependent
students from wealthy families
would no longer be barred from
obtaining financial aid.

Legal residence
Dr. Young also concluded that
out-of-state students attending
colleges which charge higher rates
for nonresidents would be able to
establish legal residence
independent of their parents,
thereby becoming eligible for
lower tution.
Furthermore, he expects recent
rulings

court

wlych prohibit

universities from compelling
students over 21 to live in
dormitories to be extended to
students over 18.
The State University at Buffalo
does not require students to live
in dormitories. This is due, in
part, to the fact that the demand
for dormitory space has generally
exceeded the number of available
beds.
However, the supply and
demand relationship is expected
to reverse Itself when the
Davis-Brody

dormitory complex

opens on the Amherst campus in
September, 1974. Davis-Brody has
a capacity of approximately 3300
students.
In the past, university officials
have alluded to the possiblity of
requiring lower classmen who
reside outside a local radius to live
in the dormitories, should
available space substantially
exceed the demand for on campus
housing. According to the report,
however, such a requirement may
soon be barred by the courts.
Ultimately, these and other
issues will have to be settled by
courts. But it does seem, safe to
bid farewell to the long standing
doctrine of in loco parentis.

concern on the part of students as to where we’re
going as an institution.”
Interviewed Tuesday by The Spectrum, Dean
Ebert felt that more than ever before, students are
presenting “good facts” and challenging ideas. ‘The .

sophisticated, and demanding than he was a few

years ago.”

saying the Colleges should become departments,” he
said, “because they should be different. But I don’t
see why something that’s different cannot also be of
high quality.”
Dean Ebert said the Colleges were now being
watched more carefully because the University was
developing “a very shoddy reputation” in the eyes of
the Middle States Evaluation team and other
Universities. Recounting how one student was
awarded 16 'credits “to peddle through Europe” as
part of one College’s experimental course, he said:
“Students can no longer do their own thing without
anyone’s accounting as was the case three years
ago .”

Dr. Ebert explained how the emphasis on
different areas of study has drastically shifted in his
almost 20 years as a member of the University
faculty. “During the ’56—’57 period,” he said, “high

Terming his primary responsibility “the

enforcement of New York State Department of
Education rules, the State University of New York
guidelines and the ‘special’ rules and regulations of
the State University at Buffalo,” Dr. Ebert said:
‘The Dean of DUS is directly responsible to the
President’s office for monitoring all undergraduate
student programs.”
As Chairman of the DUS Committee on Degree
Requirements, Dean Ebert oversees virtually all cases
where the satisfactory completion of degree
requirements has been questioned. Many disputes
arise when students unwittingly complete all the
requirements for a major without having applied for
official acceptance to that department, he indicated.

John D. Ehrlichman locked
horns with the Senate Watergate
committee on Tuesday.
Mr. Ehrlichman, former
Presidential domestic affairs
advisor, maintained throughout
his testimony that there was no
basis for- the charges of illegal
conduct directed against him and
the , White House. He bitterly
asserted that John W. Dean,
former White House legal counsel
and chief witness against the
President, had misled the White
House about the Watergate
burglary and its cover-up.
“Mr. Dean’s explanation (of
the pre-Watergate White House
atmosphere) is that we were all
suffering from some advanced
form of neurosis, and nothing else
just some strange White House
madness,” Mr. Ehrlichman said.
Mr. Ehrlichman declared that the
President was concerned that
domestic disruptions
fire
bombings and anti-war marches
would upset delicate foreign
relations.

President outhroized the burglary
of the doctor’s office.
Sen. Sam Ervin, the Watergate
committee chairman, vehemently
challenged Mr. Ehriichman's
conception of the extent of
presidential power. Ervin argued
that nothing in the law gave the
President the right to suspend

Mr, Kbdichroan atgued that die
President was concerned about
civil strife and the Watergate
break-in, but that Mr. Nixon was
nor
neither paranoid
hypersensitive to criticism. He
maintained that Mr. Nixon was
giving “balanced attention” to
both domestic and international
affairs.
“I do not suggest that we were
all just too busy to have noticed”
the Watergate incident, Mr.
Bhrlichman testified. However,
the White, House did rely on Mr.
Dean for “complete and accurate
information” concerning
Watergate and that a “chain of
delegation of responsibility is only
as strong as its weakest link.”
" ,

Usual defense funds
Mr. Bhrlichman conceded
being aware soon after the
Watergate break-in that funds
were being -accumulated for the
criminal defendants in the case.
But he insisted that his
understanding had been that this
fund-raising activity was no more
unusual than the defense
committees’ action in other
celebrated conspiracy cases such
as the Pentagon papers trial.
In addition, Mr. Ehrlichman
said that President Nixon felt it
was “well within -both the
constitutional duty and obligation
of the Presidency” for White
House aides to break into the
office of Dr. Daniel Ellsberg’s
former psychiatrist. He said the
break-in was entirely within the
President’s legal authority to

information from falling into the
hands of foreign powers.
However, Mr. Ehrlichman
maintained that neither he nor the

and to commit burglary.
Mr. Ehrlichman also declared
that there was no White'House
concern that the operations of the
special investigative unit, the
“plumbers,” who committed the
burglary of Dr. Ellsberg’s doctor,
wowW-be disclosed as a result of
the Watergate investigation. He
said further that he had received
no instructions from President
Nixon to see that the Senate’s
inquiry into the Watergate affair
did not divulge the activities of
the plumbers.
Both of these statements
contradict the President’s address
on May 22, when he declared that
he had been worried about
disclosure of the plumbers
activities and had specifically
instructed Mr. Ehrlichman to see
that the Watergate investigation
did not “compromise” those
activities.
Mr. Ehrlichman acknowledged
that he was in over-all charge of
the plumbers’ unit and that he
had approved a “covert
operation” to examine Dr.
Ellsberg’s medical files. He
conceded that he had written on
an August, 1971 proposal for such
an operation “if done under
assurance that it is not traceable.”
However, Mr. Ehrlichman
contended that he did not have
burglary in mind when he
approved the plan.
After he learned of the
doctor’s office break-in, Mr.
Ehrlichman testified, he ordered
that there be no more burglaries.
He did this, he said, not because
they would have been illegal, but
because they would have provided
bad public relations if they were
ever discovered.
In addition, Mr. Ehrlichman
indicated there were other covert
activities of the plumbers’ unit
that have not come into public
attention. However, he declined
to identify these activities because
of national security
considerations.

It boggles the mind to think that the entire scandal
known as Watergate began when the District of Columbia

emerged from the ensuing investigations have provided a
sobering kick in the pants for most Americans. It is no longer
possible to simply and cynically look the other way. It is no
longer remotely possible to write off government misconduct
as "politics as usual" or the havoc of a few overzealous
individuals. The scandal has touched the very heart of

investigate the possibility of impeachment, but most
Washington insiders predict that drastic step won't be taken
unless public opinion demands it. The people, as was
intended by the Founding Fathers when they introduced the
impeachment clause, will be the judge. And the people are
starting to inch toward the painful conclusion that there is a
moral defective in the Oval Office.
The issue of the President's secret tape recordings is in a
sense symbolic of the moral bankruptcy of the White House.
Mr. Nixon, who perceives himself as being above the law, has
thosen to ignore the subpoenas of Messrs. Ervin and Cox,
hiding behind a twisted interpretation of executive privilege
as he has hidden under a national security blanket all along.
"If the President is right about executive privilege," said Sen.
Walter F. Mondaie (D., Minn.), "I would recommend to
every criminal in the country that he get a job at the White
House because then he couldn't be prosecuted."
John Ehrlichman has testified that Mr. Nixon felt It was
"well within the constitutional duty and obligation of the
Presidency" for White House aides to break into Daniel
Ellsberg's psychiatrist's office. He interpreted a 1968 law as
granting the President the authority to authorize burglaries.
Sen. Ervin correctly retorted that "not a syllable" permits
suspension of the Fourth Amendment to allow burglary.
But it is exactly this total disregard for the law, this
sacrificing of lawful means to gain supposedly (or politically)
desirable ends, that spawned not only Watergate, but abusive
drug raids into innocent people's homes, falsification of
records to conceal a secret air war over a neutral country, the
illegal impoundment of $18 billion (7% of the total budget)
earmarked for environmental and social welfare programs,
judicial tampering, authorizing burglary and
breaking-and-entering for a "domestic intelligence" plan
aimed at dissidents, wiring the Oval Office like a record
studio, and lying to the American public with consistent
regularity.
When the Founding Fathers debated the inclusion of an
impeachment clause in the Constitution in 1787, George
Mason of Virginia asked: "Shall any man be above Justice?
Above all, shall that man be above it who can commit the
most extensive injustice?" They decided no and the clause
was included. Today, Americans, despite their fear of the
divisiveness of impeachment and the alternative of Spiro
Agnew, must answer that question for themselves. The time
for looking the other way is long past.

Before discussing a subject like SASU one must

independent of SUNY Central as SASU. It was
through that committee, proposed by SASU persons,
that the Student Assembly became a reality.
The vast majority of the student representatives

Brian J. Petraitis
Chairman, SASU

The June 21, 1973 issue of the Summer
Reporter published an official statement of the
Advisory Committee
to the Educational
Opportunity Program. This statement went out of its
way to “explain” the success of “disadvantaged”
EOF students by implying that they get preferential
treatment from their instructors. The authors of the
report apparently presume the intellectual inferiority
of the predominantly non-white students in EOP,
ahd cannot bring themselves to believe in the fact
that EOP students succeed at UB through their own
efforts. The fact that the median grade point average
of EOP students is 3.0 is viewed by the authors of
the report as a problem:
The problem is to explain, in view of the
imperfect results, nationally reported, of
compensatory programs at primary and secondary
levels of education, how a program in higher
education, affecting students with greater
accumulation of disadvantage, could show such
positive results.

to reflect on more than

students.
to what degree, if any, is
One may ask
there a special inflation of grades for EOP students
on the part of faculty whose social ideals or personal
sympathies may create special standards for such
students?
Such statements serve only to stigmatize the
achievement of EOF students, and are much more
indicative of the racism, rather than any sort of
“preferential” treatment, that EOP v students must
confront every day at UB. This school manufactures
racist ideology through the likes of psychology
professor Edgar Vinacke and others who maintain
that there are racial differences in intelligence due to
“cultural” factbrs, and the authors of the EOF
report use this “academic” racism to justify their
disbelief of the fact that such “disadvantaged”
students could ever achieve a 3.0 average. For the
racist administrators who put together this report it
is evident that EOF students are not failing fast
enough. They find it troublesome that EOF students
do not conform to their low, racist expectations.
Such racist attacks on one part of the student
body are attacks on us all. Theories of “cultural
deprivation" and racial inferiority will be used to
exclude non-whites from the university and to
segregate us from our most militant and
dass-conscious student leadership. We must form a
multi-racial organization to smash racist ideology
and racial oppression here at UB. Join SDS. Fight
back.

Tragedy, non-fiction: An assassination of the arts
Editor’s note: This article is an opinion by Arts Editor
Jeffrey Wechsier on the July 18 Sub-Board I meeting, at

the money which
came from the students in the first place (mandatory
student fees), these individuals have now deemed
themselves the arbiters of taste and cultural exposure for
the students. And this removal of artistic services is, I
repeat, not a matter of spending less money, but
apportioning it in order to annihilate five segments of the
arts from the University.

by Jeffrey Wechsier

Art gratia pecuniae
This smacks of the kind of anti-creative
anti-intetlectualism rampant in the Gelbaum plan, which
places the arts at the lowest level of priorities, the better to
fill the community with fodder for business and industry,
money-minded instead of human-oriented.' Dr. Gelbaum
need not worry about providing the community with more
cash-obsessed people. After all, it is no great revelation to
state that as long as there is money to be made, individuals
will dedicate their lives to amassing it as an end in itself,
even to the detriment of others. Such people exist in the
University already, and a lot of them are voting members
of Sub-Board I, Inc.
As would be expected, facts and logic have no place in
these people's lives. This is best evidenced by some of the
“discussion" at last Thursday's meeting. The results of a
survey complied by Walt Behnke, UUAB President, and
Steve Blumenkrantz, Executive Director of Sub-Board I
(and fortunately not of the illogical ilk of much of the rest
of his organization) were offered as evidence. All segments
of the campus community were polled concerning UUAB
events, i.e.: Undergraduate, Graduate, Medical, Dental,
Law, MFC, Faculty-Staff, and Alumnae. The data on the
Undergraduate and Graduate response is reproduced here,
and is rather self-explanatory.
It is important to report the method of "discussion"
which was practiced at this meeting. It was marked by
sheer illogic, inattention, and inhumanity. As for illogic,
take the example of George Kobis who "represented" (to
keep this report factual, that word must be in quotes) the
graduate students. Mr. Kobis claimed that he "knows"
what graduate students want, and they don't want art,
literature dance, video, or drama. All they want he
claimed is music, coffeehouses, and film.

which the 1973-74 budget for the University Union
Acitivites Board was set. Mr. Wechsier regrets interrupting
his series on the Aibright-KnOx Art Gallery, but believes
that the events recorded below are too great in
consequence and implication to be denied immediate
attention.
Spectrum Arts Editor

The interesting thing about facts is that no matter
how much one tries to deny them, they remain the facts.
Last Thursady Sub-Board I, Inc. held a meeting during
which the budget for the University Union Activities
Board (UUAB) for the upcoming year was considered.
UUAB is the organization which schedules much of the
cultural activity on this campus. It serves the University
community by programming events through the following
committees, listed alphabetically: Arts, Coffeehouse,
Dance, Dramatic Arts, Film, Literary Arts, Music, and
Video. Their various activites are distributed throughout
the year
At last Thursday's meeting, Sub-Board I arbitrarily
diecided that the students of this Univesrity should not
partake of some of these artisic endeavors. Or, to put it
another way, Sub-Board I has decided to dictate which of
the arts UUAB can bring to the student body.
How was this done? It was not done by cutting the
UUAB budget as a whole to a lower amount. Instead, the
proportion of its budget to be given to each committee
was arbitrarily dictated to UUAB. The end result, as passed
last Thursday, was to reduce the budgets of five
committees to such an extent that, for all intents and
purposes, they are non-functional. These committees are
Video. Literary Arts, Dramatic Arts, Dance and Arts. All
have been allocated budgets which are incompatible with
presenting programs comparable with their past
performances.

As an example, the Literary Arts Committee has been

throttled with an 80% reduction in its budget. What is left
is not enough to bring even two flfst-raHk authors to this

campus. Despite the standing-room-only receptions
attained by many of last year's speakers, Sub-Board I
believes that this committee should he made
non-functional.
Why? The reason is rather simple. UUAB has always
tried to use its budget to provide a service to University
students: a well-rounded program of cultural events in all
fields of the arts. Through careful apportioning of its
budget, it can provide all these services, despite the fact
that some of these cultural pursuits, by their very nature,
are not money-making pursuits. Each committee was
allotted enough to do one thing: to provide students access
to cultural events.
But Sub-Board I is no longer interested in cultural
service to the campus community. It is now only
interested in one thing, making money. And, harboring a
pathetically navie pipe-dream concept of the real world of
entertainment financing, and worse yet, embracing a
blatant students-be-damned attitude, it has decided that
only Music, Coffeehouse and Film should survive at this
-

University.
In doing so,

Sub-Board I has decided to pay homage

to principal instead of principle. Using

Miss Jennifer Washburn refused to personally discuss
the matter at hand. A statement by a representative of the
Literary Arts Committee elucidating how literary events
had packed the Fillmore Room, and how that Committee
kept attendance figures including graduate students,
caused (7) Miss Jennifer Washburn to turn partially
around, not in response, but to mutter to the Sub-Board
members: "I move to limit any discussion on this budget
to tne minutes."
The pause tat regresses
The extraordinary arrogance of this remark even
shocked the Sub-Board panel. It took a while for someone
to mumble a second to the motion as Miss Jennifer
Washburn proceeded to duck under the desk again.
Other comments from Miss Jennifer Washburn, during
the rare times that she deigned to show her face to the
public, were: "There's no reason to discuss this," "Let's
finish this up. I want to go home," and her most telling
remark, referring to the token budgets given the five
committees; "If it were just up to me, those committees
wouldn't be here at all."
This utter disregard, indeed, total contempt for
student opinion profoundly troubled even an individual
from outside the campus community. Nick Sargent, the
attorney for Sub-Board I, was absolutely incredulous
during the proceedings, and said that they were a complete
reversal of what he would expect to occur at a University.
It was on campus that he would expect that an educational
and public-oriented stance on the arts would be shown.
Mr. Sargent also stated that he was amazed at the lack
of financial and business knowledge, and the naive
attitudes, that would lead people to believe that
rechanneling all their money behind rock-and-roll concerts
would bring in additional money. Someone said they were
ashamed that Mr. Sargent had witnessed this spectacle of
student government mismanagement. Mr. Sargent could
only repeat that he was quite shocked.

organization

Forgetting someone?
This should seem astounding enough a claim,
especially to the graduate students in art, literature, drama,
etc. It should also seem rather irresponsible in light of the
survey of graduate students reporduced here, wherein
41.5% respondents said they would like more poetry,
42.7% said they would like more art, 40.2% said they
would like more dance, etc. But as I said, facts or the
welfare or wishes of students don't matter to these people.
As for combined inhumanity, illogic, and inattention,
the actions of Miss Jennfer Washburn, treasurer of
Sub-Board I, are the most frightening. The following
(honestly!) is an acual account of her behavior at these
proceedings. Miss Jennifer Washburn, on hearing a
comment emerge from anyone speaking in defense of
not metaphorically, but
UUAB would turn her back
physcially turn her back on that speaker.
I estimate that for approximately 70% of the meeting
Miss Jennifer Washburn was facing backwards from the
room. If she did not simply turn her back, she would duck
under the table to start fiddling with an adding machine
she had set up on the floor, and this retreat would occur
when figures or amounts were not being discussed.

The Arts Committee might be able to run for three months
if it's lucky. The Dance Committee might get away with
two performances. Dramatic Arts, which recently brought
you Proctor and Bergman, may swing two or three shows
total. And don't expect a lot of video programming or
more than two literary figures the likes of Ferlinghetti
again.
Without using more money, UUAB can bring all
varieties of cultural activities on campus by simply
implementing the same procedures it has used in past

years. But Sub-Board I, Inc. has in effect said "The hell
with what students want us to do with their money. We'll
do what we want."
If this precedent isn't checked, we might easily end up
with only one activity each year, based only on the
proceeding year's profit. Petitions for recall of certain
Sub-Board I members will hopefully be circulating soon,
and others are urged to add their voices in protest against
this petty, irrational strangulation of the arts at this
University. When irrational, unfeeling individuals, refusing
input from any source, try to set themselves up as gods, it
is time for some rational, responsible iconoclasm.

�Pinball Wizards The New Seekers (MGM)
It’s threc-on-two with the New Seekers, two females,
and three males, which means that there are infinite
possibilities for fun when the gang is on the road. The two
gals, Lynne and Eve, could be lovers by themselves, which
means that Peter* Paul and Marty might have to hustle up
their own female company when showtime is over. Or,
perhaps, Peter and Paul are cozy, or maybe Peter and
Marty, or Marty and Paul. Or maybe Paul goes out with
Lynne (after all, he does have his hand on her shoulder on
the hack cover). As a matter of fact, Paul and Lynne look
rather chummy on the front cover too, except that Peter is
between them, so maybe it’s just a menage-a-trois plus
two, the two being Eve and Marty. I mean, one of the
Pinball machines in the background is called “Superscore.”
One of the best things about the New Seekers is that
nobody cares if they really are just the old Seekers with a
new name. And with their latest hit, a cover of Pinball
Wizard (hence the record album title Pinball Wizard), why
shouldn’t they be able to do what they feel like? They
could be four Jacks and a Jill, or did “Master Jack” and
what was that one from the Wizard of Oz that got
resurrected in 1967.
The New Seekers are no slouches at spreading the
wealth either. All of ’em sing leads on the album- Eve sings
two (“Reaching Out For Someone” and “That’s My
Guy”). Lynne sings one (“With Everything Changing,” a
lovely ballad that’ll probably be their next single and
another sure-fire hit), Peter sings “Utah,” a captivating ode
to that muchly underrated state and shares the lead on
“Pinball Wizard” with Marty, who does the lead on “Look,
Look,” a social commentary tune with a plaintive but
enthralling message: “Look, look, at the death around
you, people why are you so hard. Look, look at my body
falling, onto the pavement in. the yard.” Marty seems to
have a flair for songwriting, witness his composition called
“Time Limit,” a song that was used as the theme for the
ABC Movie “The 500 Pound Jerk,” which had Alex
Karrass as a weight lifter in love with a Russian gymnast.
I’m sure those of you who saw the film remember the
lilting melody that Alex hummed to his Ruskie honey. Ah,
the language of love.
The band as a whole sings four tunes; “Brand New
Song,” vaguely reminiscent of Jimmy Durante’s “One of
Those Songe” and the latest doublemint commercial.
Quite listenable, and on “Feelin’,” “Somebody
Somewhere” and “The Further We Reach Out,” the voice
of Paul shines through in supportive role.
As if all this weren’t enough, the album was produced
by Michael Lloyd, best known as former producer and
companion to Kim Fowley and the lead singer of the
highly acclaimed but short lived Laughing Wind. Lloyd
plays over ten instruments on the record, including oud
and bagpipes on “TimeLimit.”
Sure this band does some “Top Forty” tunes, but is
this any reason to ignore them? Let’s get off our snobby
high horses and give some true artists a chance for a
_

change.

After the Ball John Fahey (Reprise)
Pick a number between one and ten, OK? Now tell me
who won the World Series in 1929. For the rest of.you we
have here a new album from John Fahey and his orchestra

call After the Ball.

Imagine yourself very much alone, on a desert or a
summit where it’s only you as far as the eye can see. This
is the kind of space John Fahey’s music thrives in, where
the spirit is released from tether, “in which every detail
stands out clearly against an immense and eternal
landscape” as Gerritt Graham describes Fahey in Fusion
magazine.

Most of the songs on After the Ball are written for the

guitar. Which seems only natural since Fahey's been
playing the instrument since he was thirteen. He's grownup
with it in his hands, With his masterful fingers, while his
ears have been glued to the groundswell of blues and the
classics. Whats come forth is a uniquely varied product of
blues/ clasical/ folk capable of transporting the listener to
tonal heavens via a carpet of-pure harmony. Fahey’s music
is derived from experience that continually transpires.
What Fahey himself observes may best describe his
dedication to his instrument:

“I am quite free with my guitar. But I am not free of
it. 1 myself am no freer than one of the strings on it.”
A list of song titles would mean very little in respect
to what goes on inside this album. The songs are
consummate and primordial, tying together the threads of
confederate and Yankee, black and white music. Melody is
spontaneous with each pick and strum from Fahey’s
guitar, while time seems to stop so that nothing will
interefere with the focus on the notes. With John Fahey
there is no such thing as a paraphrase; nothing can be
treated lightly and first we have to be able to enunciate.
In 1959 Fahey recorded his first album'on his own
Takoma label. The title Blind Joe Death comes out of

The New York Rock Ensemble is not a brand new
group. The average radio listener can remember hearing the
group’s name before, but can’t recall what type of music
they perform.
Their music is a blend of contemporary rock
movements and classical orchestration with dismal pop
lyrics. Yep, they try to cover it all and that’s why they will
always be in an undeserving position of, “Yeah, I’ve heard
of the group, but I can’t remember their sound.” I say
undeserving mainly because their musical talents are quite
superior.

“Credit Card” is the best song on Michael
Kamen-New York Rock. The song is a quick Latin
number that is sung by Dennis Whitted (the drum and
conga player) in good Jamaican fashion. The song is about
this dude who is running out of town after going on a
rampage with his credit card.
‘Must pack my bag and leave the town.
They got my number.
They lookin'for my trail
They got my number.
They after my sweet tail
’

Bright piece of plastic, glowin’ green
Won't you lep me make the scene7
American expressive day.

Please don’t take my card away.
The cut starts out with an ARP Synthesizer and an
English horn as an intro. Then, as the chorus comes in,
they introduce all sorts of percussion instruments against a
steady bass and congas. You can even hear the islanders
screaming in the backround.
“Winter Child” uses a cello and a “Bachian”
harpsichord that combines for a mellow, relaxing sound.
This sad ballad, about an inhibited young child, is sung
very nicely by Michael Kamen. Kamen, who wrote both
the lyrics and music for air the songs on the album,
conveys a sad and lonely feeling both in his singing and
harpsichord playing.

“I Love You” is recorded to sound like an old love
song that could have originated in the 1930’s. Kamen’s
voice is made to sound faded (like an old recording). He

Fahey’s associations with blues artists like Mississippi John
Hurt and others who provided Fahey’s initial impetus to
take up guitar. One hundred albums were pressed and it
took three years to sell them. Fahey also produced Leo
Kottke’s early Takoma outings. Since recording for
Vanguard and Reprise, Fahey now has at least a dozen
albums, many of them underrated, to his credit.
Whosoever playeth the most effortless and effusive
guitar shall inherit the earth. That’s what the book really
means to say. John Fahey has probably traveled as many
roads at night as any Greyhound bus driver, and as Nat

Hentoff puts it, “the man’s a natural resource.” So if

you’ve got any doubts about the communion of blues and
classical guitar, lend Fahey your ears. If it were my
funeral, I’d have John Fahey p)ay the guitar and Bessie
Jackson (alias Lucille Bogan) sing “Shave ’Em Dry.”

These days it seems very hard to look into every thing
that is thrown at us. In school the profs are throwing such
a tremendous amount of knowledge at us each day that it’s
impossible to absorb it all. We are always meeting new
faces every day, so many in fact that many of the good
people are never discovered. Then in the rock world today
there are just so many discs being recorded that we end up
relying on other people to tell us all that we miss. I find

plays a simple, melodic progression on his acoustic while
someone, in the backrouhd, can be heard slapping his open
lips with his hand producing a stuffy popping sound.
The rest of the cuts on the album aren’t worth talking
about. They are mainly love ballads with wishy-washy
lyrics. The music that is put to them seems confined and
forced. I sit there waiting for a change in melody or
tempo, but I end up going to sleep because it never comes.
How dull.

I do want to point out Dave Sanborn’s sax break on
“Hot As The Sun.” The solo is in good Bobby Keys
fashion as he makes his sax cry and rock. Too bad they
didn’t put Sanborn’s sax to better use on the rest of the
album.

�NEW YORK I’ve spent many
great evenings in Madison Square
Garden. All those Knick playoff
games, especially the clincher in
1970, will live in my memory
forever. The Bangla Desh concert,
two summers ago on my birthday,
with George, Ringo, Eric, Leon
and Mr. Zimmerman, was like a
dream. So when 1 went to New
York last weekend to catch the
Allman Brothers Band at the
Garden, there was a little tradition
-

involved.

The tradition was shattered last
Saturday night by six humans
who play music as it is meant to
be played; What distinguishes
superior concerts, in my view, is
the energy levels to which the
band rises. Rather than simply
recreating album cuts, which are
probably better in the studio
anyway, a great live band creates
the music right there, each
musician powering his instrument
to greater and greater heights as
the night progresses.
People always talked that way
about the Dead, years ago when
they played all night, but
nowadays it seems they’re just
going through the motions. The
Allman Brothers are like the new
Dead
they’re a live band, first
and foremost, as Live at the
Fillmore East will attest.
Unfortunately, I’m a latecomer to
the Brothers, coming after the
untimely departure of Duane
Allman, to who many albums
endure as a memorial. Bass player
Berry Oakley also died this year,
so the new band has a new bass
player and a pianist who takes
many of Duane’s lines on the
keyboard. And the new band
sounds like they’ve been together
for years.
They were a little slow getting
started, but soon shifted into
second gear with “Done
Somebody Wrong” and a song
from the forthcoming album
Brothers and Sisters (“It’ll be in
your house in 5 or 6 days,” Gregg
Allman informed us). Dicky Betts
immediately established his

Johanny Johanson and Butch
Trucks on two sets of drums.

Reproducing Duane’s sound
Without slowing down, the
Brothers sailed into their fust
peak, Which they sustained for
almost an hour. It was launched
by a perfect version of “Stormy
Monday,” with Gregg’s organ
swelling like a tide, his voice
strong and familiar, and Dicky
Betts in total control of his
instrument, weaving in and
around the melody line.
Following a piano break, the bass
changed tempo and took off into
a great organ break by Allman,
with Betts playing syncopated
rhythm guitar. Fast, slow or
in-between, these guys can play
the blues.
Without a pause, the roving
bass lines of ‘In Memory of
Elizabeth Reed” launched the
song, each, instrument strong and
distinct, with guitar and organ
usually slightly more prominent.
The band became tighter by the
minute, six minds working as one.

Sky.” They don’t usually do it
because Duane was such an
important component, and there
was a noticeably missing element.
But the pianist played Duane’s
lines, as in other songs, often in
harmony with Betts’ lead guitar.
Dicky also sang lead vocal, with
Gregg on harmony, and his
enlongated guitar break was pure
ecstacy. Flitting his way around
the melody, Dicky displayed
complete mastery while
entrancing 20,000 pairs of ears.
They finished up the first set
with “One Way Out,” also from
Eat a Peach a tight smooth
number with rhythmic drum fills,
and Betts climbing higher and
higher with riffs, picky’s swift
and tasty notes literally leap out
of the song, and he fills each space
perfectly when the band stops.
After a double drum break by
Johanson and Trucks, Gregg’s
voice wails out at the end “Oh
baby I just don’t know” and the
first set ended in an uproar.
During the break, it dawned on
me that this was one of those rare
,

ever seen. In fact, I began to
suspect he was God. He is
incredibly precise, has total
control of the guitar, and displays
a repertoire of styles which are as
imaginative as they are diverse.

“Ain’t Wastin’ Time” featured a
strong vocal by Gregg, whose
organ added color and flavor to
every song, and tasty riffs by
Betts, filling each space precisely.
Next was a new Betts

came a steadily building
cacophony of sounds exploding
into “Les Brers in A Minor,” with
the bass taking off first and organ,
piano, guitar and double drums
following, tight as all hell and
reaching a crescendo of musical
energy.
-

A tumultuous ovation later,
the Allman Brothers came back
for their kind of encore: a
45-minute emotional experience
called “Whipping Post.” They
took it far beyond even the
22-minute Fillmore East version;
it was blues at its best. All six
were in high gear, but Dicky was
in total control, trading question
&amp; answer phrases with the piano
(and later Gregg’s voice), playing
counterpoint to the entire band.
And when he takes off, the band
follows, as his guitar pushes them
to higher and higher energy levels.
Thousands of raised matches and
a 7.9 on the Richter scale called
the Brothers back for a second
encore, a tasteful rendition of
“Mountain Jam,” with Dicky’s
lead notes sounding like a rippling
brook. When the lights finally
went on after 3Vi hours of music
and two encores, the audience was
numb, emotionally drained from
this rare experience.

with superlatives, it’s a frustrated

Know How to Love Him” adds a subtle touch of
beauty to the film."
A s a whole Jesus Christ. Superstar is a very fine
production, but a few flaws are evident. Not the
least of these is in the character of Jesus. Mr. Neeley
has a rock star’s voice which is most fruitful when
shrieking. This characteristic detracts from the
sensitivity of the character and creates the
impression that he is most expressive when he is
silent.
Another of the movie’s faults is the time
contrast. A very effective tool at times, it proves, as
the film progresses, to be more of an idle prop than a
significant factor. Any analogy that Mr. Jewison
attempts to draw between latter-day and
present-day Jerusalem is lost.
Yet Superstar w(ll triumph. Mr. Iscovc’s
correography, considering that his stage was heat,
sand and rock, is spectacular. Douglas Slocombe’s
photography deserves an Oscar, as he worked against
almost insumountable odds, shooting into the glaring
desert sun, and producing some magnificent results.
Jesus Christ, Superstar is a good, entertaining
movie, with a deep, important message (if you look)
and a lot of surface beauty (if you don’t).. It's now
playing at The Eastern Hills Cinema II. Go see it.

Jesus’ first coming
Set in the stifling Israeli desert, this acid
anachronism begins to unravel before our eyes.
Actor Ted Neeley is the first to emerge. He is easily
recognized by his thin bear, white coak, and by the
homage paid to him by all but one man, who slips
off into the dunes.
This man, a trusted aide and friend to Jesus, is
the one who will later betray him. Carl Anderson
begins to portray Judas Iscariot. In an aside to the
audience, he renders a sympathetic aria; “Heaven on
Their Minds” is a desperate plea to Christ to come
down to reality. Anderson’s strong, melodious voice
rings out from the depths of his heart. We can feel
the confusion in Judas’ soul.
Since Superstar is an opera based on the last
seven days of Christ’s hfe, the costuming and the
words to the songs are the only clue to any
background information. Yet, as Caiaphus is
introduced, we are given a visual impression of his

Bike Advice

PRIS

To the editor:
To all of you who ride bicycles on or off
I would suggest that you obey the state laws
concerning such and ride with the traffic flow.
As I do not own a bicycle but have driven a car
for quite a few years, it seems to me that I would
rather have my back to a car and riding my bike in a
safe way and letting the car pass me with care.
I cannot imagine riding against traffic and trying
to watch what the car driver was going to do and not
watch where my bike was going.
Perhaps I may be old fashioned but I try my
best to give a person on their bike a break as long as
they are obeying the rules of courtesy which we
should all do as it has fallen in disrepute.

A Plea
Editor’s note: The following letter was dictated to
The Spectrum over the phone by a blind person. We
are awarding him a free subscription as a gesture we
hope the Common Council will duplicate.
Attention: Mayor’s Committee in City Hall:
On May 31, 1973, 1 submitted a letter to the
Common council advising them that 1 wanted free
transportation for the blind, and ID cards, like the
senior citizens have for discounts to theaters and
amusements, but I was turned down. They notified
me at the meeting (2/26/73) that the cards were
only good for 60 years and older, and the NFT cards
were only good for 55 years and older.
I think that the Mayor’s Committee should give
the same rates to handicapped people as they do to
senior citizens. I hope this will make them
understand the way I feel.

More library hours
To th6 editor.
A well staffed and facilitated library constitutes
an integral component of any person’s academic
career. It. appears, however, that SUNYAB has
forgotten this.
As a presently enrolled summer school student,
I have found the library hours on this campus
extremely limited and most inconvenient. I’m sure
many people would greatly appreciate extended
services, especially on the weekends. I also feel, after
numerous occuring instances, the Lockwood staff
should be reminded that the library closes on the
hour, and not when “the big hand” of the clock is
on the 9 or 10.
Thank you.

Channelling Aggression
To the editor.

I am writing this letter in response to the article
which' appeared last week entitled “War Gamers
Rewrite History”. As one of the founders and
members of the Historical Conflict Simulations Club
of UB (it is not called the Wargames Club), I feel the
article has partially misrepresented what the games
are all about. This is somewhat understandable as in
my experience the uninitiated rarely fully appreciate
how the games work. This has also led to my being
misquoted, which I care to clarify.
As stated the games may transport one back to
another era by recreating its battles, but I (and I
speak for all “gamers”) never “...become
Napoleon, Hitler,.Stalin.” What I tried to convey to
The Spectrum reporter was that one can simulate
being in the position of having to make a decisive
decisioji that could determine the course of history
for centuries. Nobody, I’m sure, who has any sense
of morals would care to identify with the above eyil,
egocentric maniacs.
War games are very simitar to sports, such as
football. However, unlike footbal, there is never any
aggression between players, be it physical, mental or
verbal (as there is in football and other sports). The
aggression (a better word would be contest) is
directed into the abstract, that is, the playing pieces
and the mapboard. Here chess would be a
analogy. Indeed, how much better the world would
be if aggression would be channeled into abstract
forms that bring people together on peaceful
afternoons to play games and have fun.

Editor’s note: The following is the first of a two-part
commentary on “Women as a Political Force. This
section is devoted to the tradition of women’s
participation in politics and the myths which cloud
the facts concerning women voters.
’’

Apparently, many women still feel that they
will choke if they breathe the air of smoke-filled
political backrooms. And more importantly, the
doors to those higher echelons of political life
remain reluctant to open up to female aspirants.
Since 1920, oihly 66 women have been elected
to the U.S. Congress, and over half of these women
had husbands who had served in Congress before
them. Usually, a woman’s face has appeared on the
House or Senate floor because she had a “widow’s
mandate” to serve out her recently-deceased
husband’s term of office. Of course, this meant
voting only according to the departed loved one’s
wishes.
At the lower levels of political life, the state or
local political party organizations, women have been
stuffing
relegated to the most menial tasks
envelopes, ringing doorbells, holding tea or coffee
parties (coffee for the Democrats; tea for the
sophisticated Republicans).
And women, as mere voters with no designs on
political office, have been the topic of much
unfounded conjecture. These are a few of the
inaccurate beliefs about women voters shared by
men and women alike:
—Women are too concerned with home and
family matters. They don’t really want to get into
politics.
y-Women vote exactly like their husbands.
-Women are more conservative than men.
Women’s increasing interest in politics as well as
the greater acceptability of women voters is reflected
in the continual rise in the' proportion of women
who actually go to the polls. In 1920, only a third of
eligible women voted in the presidential election. By
the 1960’s, women’s voting percentage approached
that of men. According to the Census Bureau, 69.9%
of all eligible females turned out to vote in the
Humphrey-Nixon race, compared to 72 per cent of
the eligible males. (Incidentally, more women than
men identify with the Democratic Party. If women
had gone to the polls in the same proportion as men
did in 1968, Hubert Humphrey, not Richard Nixon,
would have been in the White House.)
Well, the women are voting more, but why
doesn’t this voting increase result in more women as
political “activists" and as candidates? According to
a 1972 Harris poll, three out of five women
questioned felt that -women should be more
politically active, but only one in six was actually
aptive. The reason for their reluctance? Involvement
in politics means forsaking their “fixed” roles as
mothers and wives. Women resent being given the
“dirty" work of politics. And one woman in four
believes that women are being actively kept out of
the arena.
More and more evidence is accumulating which
points out that women, contrary to what political
analyst Maurice Duverger has said, do not “accept
political paternalism on the part of men.” Women
are no longer accepting men as “the mediators
between them and the political world.”

•&gt;.

The Princeton class of 1962 was polled ten years
after graduation. A similar poll was sent to the
graduates’ wives. “Politically, the Princeton man is a
liberal Republican,” the study concluded, “and will
accordingly vote for Nixon in 1972.” The wives, on
the other hand, favored Muskie over Nixon by
almost two-to-onc. (When asked if their wives shared
their political outlook, however, a full 88 per cent of
the Princeton men answered “yes.”)
Tn other research, women proved to be far less
accepting of violence and U5. military activity inIndochina and more likely to support peace
movement activities. They also have demonstrated
less support of capital punishment, more support of
gun control, as well as medical treatment for drug
addicts instead of harsh prison terms. Women are
voting differently from men. Pollster Louis Harris
agrees: “Women are more inclined now to vote not
only for their own self-interes", but for the interest
of society, the world and most of all, out of
compassion for humanity.”)
The reputation for women’s conservatism stems
most likely from strong female support for*
Eisenhower. However, the polls indicate the support
came more because of his Korean peace-making
stance than from an image of the “conservative
grandfather.” The Eisenhower tradition extended
into I960, when women voted for Nixon over
Kennedy, 54 per cent to 46 perccent. This fact may
also serve to destroy the long-held notion that
women will vote for the more sexually attractive
candidate.
1964 brought a change to the women’s vote.
Instead of following supposedly natural conservative
yearnings, women voted 68 per cent for Johnson; a
larger percentage than even Eisenhower had received*
Apparently, women were not affected by the “era of
the white backlash” as much as men.
So, if women are not more conservative than
men, and they are interested in politics, and they do
vote differently from their husbands, why are there
so relatively few women involved in politics
expressing these divergent, less conservative views?
Women are still combatting the traditional beliefs
which require politics to be a man’s field. They are
still being educated to spend their lives passively and
children-filled.
Powerless groups need to coalesce if they arc to
gain any power. So far, women’s political attempts
have not succeeded in making the woman in her
kitchen at 210 Maple Street, Suburbia, USA realize
her commonality with the woman in her 60-hour a
week maid job at Apartment 3-G, Urban, USA.
The polls have said: In 1937, 37 per cent of
those polled would vote for a woman for president;
in 1969, 54 per cent of those polled said they would
vote for a woman presidential candidate; and in
1971,66 per cent of the poll sample voted “thumbs
up!” for a woman president. These indicators show
only that people feel they can no longer joke freely
about a female president who they claim would
install lace around the edge of the presidential seal,
proclaim Mother’s Day a national holiday, and win
over the foreign diplomats by her home cooking.
These statistics reveal only how people feel they
ought to respond, not what they will actually do at
the polls. Whereas it is not socially acceptable to
withhold political approval solely on the basis of sex,
it remains an individually accepted and widely
practiced phenomenon.

�INTERNATIONAL
Nuclear tests to continue
France’s Foreign Minister announced this week
that there would be more French nuclear tests in the
South Pacific, declaring that the international wave
of protest “will not prevent me from sleeping well at
night.” So far Peru has broken off relations with
France, asserting that the tests pollute the air, water
and pastures. But the Foreign Minister, announced
that Peru’s decision would not prevent the French
government from going ahead. France did not expect
any other of the Latin American countries that
protested the tests to follow Peru’s lead.
Greece to holdreferendum
Greece’s military-backed government is urging
citizens to vote for President George Papadopoulos’
new republic in a referendum this Sunday. Mr.
Papadopoulos called for the referendum two months
ago when he dethroned exiled King Constantine and
set up a republic with himself as its first president.
Opposing the Papadopoulos regime, a committee for
the restoration of democratic legality said the
referendum is unfair because of the existence of
martial law and the supervision of results by
government workers. They said that a “no” vote,
even it it fails to show in the official results, will be a
moral victory that eventually may bring down the
dictatorship.

year later that the United States was doing nothing
to violate Cambodian neutrality, according to his
classified testimony. When asked at the time about
the United States’ role in Cambodia, testimony
showed that Mr. Rogers had declared: “Cambodia is
one country where we can say with complete
assurance that our hands are clean and our hearts are
pure.”

.

Census shafts blacks
Criticism was levied against the Census Bureau
this week for not counting two million black
persons, most of whom lived in New York City, in
its 1970 census. The National Urban League said the
undercounting meant that in terms of political
representation, the two million blacks lost the
equivalent of five Congressmen. Because the census
figures are used to determine Congressional
representation and allocations of federal funds, the
League sees them as crucial. League Director Robert
Hill estimated that the Bureau’s “deficient
procedures” cost New York State about $15.1
million in revenue sharing funds.

Hospital bombing admitted
A former Air Force officer said he participated
in the planned bombing of a Vietcong hospital in
South Vietnam in 1969. The incident took place
about a month after the United States began its
secret B-S2 bombing of Cambodia. The bombing was
a violation of the &gt;1949 Geneva accords prohibiting
the destruction of hospitals, religious or cultural
buildings. Additionally, international law respected
by the United States forbids the use of cruel or
inhumane tactics of warfare unrelated to normal
military objectives. Sen. Harold Hughes (Iowa) said
he would demand that the ex-officer testify before a
Senate hearing “to make a determination of the
existing circumstances that could have called for us
to deliberately bomb hospitals.”
t

Nixon subpoened
The White House said earlier this week that
President Nixon would abide by the ultimate
decision of the courts in hjs decision to prevent the
release of the recordings of his private conversations
on Watergate. Archibald Cox, special prosecutor for
the Senate Watergate Committee, served subpoenas
to Mr. Nixon, demanding access to tapes and other
Presidential documents. Mr. Nixon has three options
open to him in dealing with the subpoenas; to
comply with, annul or ignore them. As The
Spectrum went to press,, it was unknown what the
President’s decision would be, although one was due
yesterday.

Beef shortages expected

The Cost of Living Council’s Food Advisory
Committee said this week that there soon would be
shortages of beef on the nation’s meat counters. The
owner of a Chicago supermarket chain predicted that
the slaughter of beef would be down 20 per cent
next week, calling it a natural reaction of cattle
owners being singled out by the recent federal food
price regulations. Those rules permitted prices to rise
to reflect increases in farm prices in all foods but
beef. These ceilings will be in effect until September

12.
‘Secret’ bombings never admitted
Secretary of State William Rogers, who
participated in the decision to begin the “secret"
bombing of Cambodia in March 1969, assured the
Senate Foreign Relations Committee more than a

Nixon endorsement not needed
Vice President Spiro T. Agnew said that if he
runs for the Presidency in 1976, he would not need
President Nixon’s backing because “1 really don’t
think that it means a great deal." Mr. Agnew said he
feels “personal relief” at not being involved in
Watergate. He said the President should answer the
charges"against him, but not in “the frantic
atmosphere” of a free-wheeling news conference.

LOCAL
Referendum for Center approved
The Buffalo Common Council unanimously
approved placing on the November 6 ballot a
referendum concerning a $3 million bond issue for
beginning construction of a $14 million downtown
convention , center. Councilwoman-at-large Alfreda
Slomlnski said she “will actively campaign against
the downtown convention center,” noting that when
the Council originally approved the $3 million bond
issue, she was “very leery of this whole, whole deal.”

�Upward Bound

HEW guidelines

Preparation for success

It is easy for people at the University to confuse
the names and purposes of programs for the
educationally and financially deprived. Varied in
content and objectives, such programs are aimed
towards different groups with different needs. One
such University program. Upward Bound, has for the
past eight yean given disadvantaged high school
youths the opportuniy to acquire skills necessary for
college. Critical to the program is that participants
live on campus for approximately two months,
enabling academic pursuits to be supplemented with
the experience of univenity life.
Although many of the participants are initaillly
unsure of their career goals. Upward Bound Director
Robert Baum said that college opportunities once
opened to disadvantaged youth during the 1960’s are
decreasing. ‘There is less support for these students.
For a student to be successful, he has to be
prepared” while still in high school, he said.
This summer, the program consists of 80
students who are divided into bridge and non-bridge
groups. Those in non-bridge groups are currently
enrolled in high school, whereas the former group
are recent high school graduates who will enter
college in the fall.
Although unaccustomed to the college work
load, a majority of students are strongly determined
to successfully complete the program. According to
participant Michael McCalla: ‘There is a whole lot of
work to do, but it doesn’t bother me. I came here to
learn.”

the courses bang offered are
African-American history, computer programming,
photography, philosophy, political science and
psychology. Many students who begins the program
during the 10th grade return during succeeding years
until they begin college, Mr. Baum said.

Although Federal subsidies for many similar
programs have been “drastically reduced,” the fact
that Upward Bound has received an increase in funds
over last year indicates its viability and success, said
Mr. Baum.
To determine its benefits, diagnostic tests are
given to students before and after the summer
program. Many students show improvements in
reading and study skills, but these gains are often not
apparent in their high school grades, Mr. Baum said.
However, “statistics indicate that 75% of former
Upward Bound participants are fully matriculated in
various colleges, with 50% continuing onto graduate
school,” he noted.
Tomorrow, Upward Bound students will
participate in the annual “Ail Scholastic and
Olympics Day” at the University of Rochester. The
event allows Upward Bound students from different
institutions to exchange ideas as well as providing
competition in track and other sporting events.
“Last year UB walked away with most of the
trophies,” Mr. Baum noted, although stressing that
interaction and not competition was the principal
purpose of the games_

sterilization procedures” included
the following provisions:
-The creation of local review
committees to consider and then
approve or disapprove the
sterilization of a person under 21
or legally incapable under state
law of consenting to sterilization.
-The withholding of federal
hinds for such sterilization from
any agency of the department
unless the sterilization is approved
by a review committee.
-If a review committee
approves the sterilization of a
person legally incapable of
consenting, it will not be
performed unless a “court of
competent jurisdiction” rules it to
be in the best interest of the
patient.
—The filing of a report to the
HEW secretary containing relevant
information of all sterilization
programs and projects.
The guidelines call for the
review committees to consist of
five members, chosen by the
program or project authorities,
but not connected with the
program or project. Additionally,
they require that members be able
to deal with the medical, legal,
social and ethical issues of
sterilization. Both sexes must be
represented, with at least one
member of the committee a
representative of the local
interests.
The Montgomery sterilizations
took place under the auspices of
the Office of Economic
Opportunity (OEO). HEW took
over the Montgomery clinic and
similar clinics last June 1. The
recent sterilizations have led to
the disclosure of 80 cases in which
certain of the 3260 federal
agencies sterilized minors.
The girls and their mother
allege that they were not told of
the operation beforehand and
thought their consent was for
birth control shots. The agency,
on the other hand, claims to have
explained to them prior to the
operation. A major question,
however, is whether the agency
should have permitted the mother
to speak on the girls’ behalf, since
they knew at the time she was
illiterate.
The girls’ family has filed a $1
million suit against the agency and
the federal government, which
California Attorney Melvin Belli
will try.
Former chief of the OEO’s
family planning division Warren
Hern said he had drawn up
guidelines which would have
prevented the Montgomery
controversy, but they were never
used. When asked why HEW did
not use the OEO guidelines as
their own, one HEW official said
they were discriminatory because
they included an outright
prohibition of sterilization for
those covered by the department’s
,

guidelines.

with some 75,000 people.
Over 30 cars and some 60-odd

Matras to lumbering Corvettes.
The interest focused around the
two prime contenders for the
World’s Manufacturing

and Ferrari. To date, Matra has
won 4 of the 9 races to 2 wins for
Ferrari, but 4 second-place

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Independence, he said the Founding Fathers had written a

Sptctnim Suff Writ?

Recently-resigned president of the Southern
Christian Leadership Conference (SCLQ, the Rev. Ralph
David Abernathy, told a capacity crowd Tuesday night in
the Fillmore Room that the American people had made a
“mistake” last November by electing Richard Nixon.
Rev. Abernathy accused Mr. Nixon of being
insensitive to the needs of poor Americans by seeking to
destroy all the programs for the poor created by Lyndon
Johnson’s Great Society. Angered that costly space flights

said: “We shouldn't stand man on the moon until we first
stand man on his feet down here on this earth. Agnew
went around passing out moon rocks when he should be
passing out loaves ofbread to hungry children.”
“We have a sick man in the White House; sickness
limited not only to pneumonia,” Rev. Abernathy
continued "WeVe made a mistake, but since we made a
mistake, we’ve got to correct that mistake by seeing to it
that Richard Milhouse Nixon is impeached.”

‘Nation in Crisis’

lie because America has not lived up to its premise of
equality for all.
Discussing the downfall of great civilizations. Rev.
Abernathy warned that we arc heading for the same fate
that befell Ancient Rome, Greece, and in more modern
times, Germany. ‘Their flaw,” he said, “was that they
forgot the ordinary people, the masses.”
However, the 47-year old leader warned that the
problems of society are suffered by the middle and upper
classes as well as by the poor. “Whether you are from
down South or up South, you’re all sinking,” he said. ‘'We
may not all have come on the same ship, but we are now
sinking in the same boat.”
Noting that less than one-fifth of the population
controls over 90% of the nation’s wealth. Rev. Abernathy
called for a more equitable distribution of resources. It is
every person’s right to have a guaranteed annual wage, he
said.

Major Problems

Major Problems
The civil rights leader pointed out that Buffalo and
New York State are plagued by major problems. He said
urban renewal was more like “urban removal,’’referring to
the fact that homes he had seen in Buffalo just a few years
ago had been removed. Touching briefly on the Attica

Also present on the podium was the Rev. Bennett
Smith of Buffalo, active in the black movement for many
years. Me described Rev. Abernathy as a quiet man “who
never aspired for self-exhalta tion in the years he was Dr.
King’s unhearkled right-hand man.”
Speaking of an annonymous letter he received awhile
ago detailing a plan to send blacks back to Africa
(financing was also pledged in the letter). Rev. Abernathy
said: “How the devil can you go back where you’ve never
been. We arc Afro-Americans and America is our home.”
He asserted that until other nationalities returned to
their native homes and America was given back to the
Indians, “I’m staying right here.”
“Black people who now enjoy the fruits of our labors
and occupy high-salaried positions should continue to
contribute to the SCLC,” Rev. Abernathy said in reference
to a widespread apathy that has plagued the black
movement in recent years.
Jails filled by poor
Emphasizing that changes which were made were
brought about by poor people, he said: “Remember, they
filled the jails.” However, Rev. Abernathy was skeptical
whether blacks would ever again invest all their support in
any one personality as they did in Martin Luther King, Jr.
However, he felt that should a leader emerge, he would
probably suffer Dr. King’s fate.

controversy,'he termed it a “shame and disgrace on the
beautiful canvas of the American scene.”
Health care was another crisis labelled as widespread
by Rev. Abernathy. He was disgusted with the fact that
many poor blacks are treated for diseases after it is too late
to be cured. In contrast, he said that while he was in

membership recruitment and general co-op

Although equitable division of labor provides
for the ideal living situation, it’s often a most
difficult and elusive goal. In many co-ops, most work
is done by a small group. This has been attributed to

�Sterilization
of two
black girls
sparks
inquiry
The suit which California Attorney Melvin Belli is
prepared to try states that no adequate explanation of the
consequences of the operation were given. It also charges
that the sisters were sterilized, in part, because they were
black.
The .government, which had permitted the use of
federal money for voluntary sterilization, has cut off all
funds for surgical procedures. In the last IS months,
according to reports, government-sponsored birth control
clinics have sterilized at least 80 other minors. The clinics,
3260 in number, mostly serve the poor.
The Montgomery-based clinic is said to have sterilized
11 girls, all minors, ten of them black and some mentally
retarded. Mary, born with a speech impediment and
without a right hand, is among the retarded. Some have
speculated that Mary and others were sterilized for this
reason. Yet, it is also contended that this was clearly an
example of genocide against black people. However, this
theory is quickly being discarded since the caseworkers at
the clinic were themselves black.
Noting the “particularly difficult ethical and legal
problems,” Alan Guttmacher, president of the Planned
Parenthood Federation of America (PPFA), issued a
statement last week that “unflinching vigilance” must be
paid “when the procedure being considered is sterilization,
and when the patient concerned is uneducated, young,
emotionally immature or mentally retarded.”

Managing Editor

Montgomery, Alabama. Here is where it began. A
black woman refused one day to surrender her bus seat to
a white man and the civil rights movement was born. That
was 18 years ago.
! Mongtbitiery, last week. Two black girls, one of them
retarded; both legally minors, are sterilized by a federally
funded fan&gt;ily clinic. The clinic maintains it had
permission from the girls’ mother. She insists otherwise:
‘They didn’t say anything about giving them no operation.
They told me they were going to give shots.”
Differing stories, serious charges. Who is telling the
truth? Suit has been brought against the agency. Hearings
have been scheduled. But somehow it seems that question
will not be easily answered.
Much is at issue here: racism, ethics and rights. Why
were the girls sterilized? Was the operation, in fact,
involuntary? Was there no alternative?
Mary Alice, 12, had
The two girls, Minnie Lee,
been receiving an experimental, long lasting injectable
contraceptive drug until it was withdrawn from use. Given
tothem every 90 days, the shots were no longer
authorized because some studies indicated they might
cause Adverse side effects.
Pill not suitable
Both sexually active, the girls were in need of birth
control. The agency felt that the girls were not disciplined
enough to take the pill on schedule, nor were ready for
coils. Sterilization seemed the best alternative. According
to the clinic, the mother consented to the operation for
the younger retarded girl by signing her name with a
scrawly “X.” The older girl, however, signed the form
herself since Alabama law permits competent persons 14
years or over to consent to their own medical care. The

Who speaks for whom?

However, the condition of the patient is not the only
factor needing careful scrutiny. What about the parents
and their ability to speak on behalf of the patient?
Two members of Buffalo’s Planned Parenthoos
Center, which is not connected with any federal agency,
felt there was great need for both parent and patient to be
considered. “If the caseworker saw the mother was
illiterate, then it was pretty stupid to let her speak for her
children.” Should the father have been brought in, or
should the matter have been taken to other, more
knowledgeable authorities, they asked.
Speculating about the case, Jean Hutchinson, Public
Relations director of the Buffalo center, tried to put
herself in the agency’s place. “A parent brings in a sexually
active child for birth control! What do you do? You can’t
let a ‘baby’ have a baby. Do you want to give a 12-year-old
child the pill? Some doctors don’t think this is medically
sound. Any intra-uterine device at that age would be

girls’ father said:
“Nobody understood. Nobody understood. The girls
had been getting birth control shots for some time, and the
clinic’s nurses come here and saidd they wanted to give
them some more. But they just took’em away instead and
then taken the life right out of them. Nobody
understood.”
‘There is no doubt in my mind that they all knew
what was meant,” said Joseph Conklin, the agency’s
director. “We explain everything and we don’t use words

Opportunity.
'

As for rules and regulations, most states now permit
sterilization operations for mentally competent patients
“as long as they submit voluntarily to surgery. Some states
allow the sterilization of minors with parental consent, and
a number of states empower courts to order sterilization of
insane or retarded persons.”
In Alabama, a law permitting parents to authorize
surgery for their children is at the heart of the controversy.
However, the law does not specifically deal with surgical
sterilization.
According to The New York Times, Warren Hern,
former chief of program development and project
evaluation for the agency’s family planning division, said
he had drawn up a set of regulations concerning
sterilization of minors and the mentally incompetent “that
would have prevented the Montgomery controversy.”
“After 1 had 25,000 copies printed and was ready to
distribute them, somebody above me in Washington cried,
‘politics’ I could never find out just who and ordered
all of them tucked away in a warehouse. I guess they’re
still there.”
!v
Charging that the federal government did not take
“adequate cognizance of the difficult issues involved where
the sterilization of minors is to be considered,” 14
organizations, led by the National Council of Negro
Women, have demanded a cutoff of all federal funds for
sterilization of minors. Opposing such legislation, officials
from the Department of Health, Education and Welfare
(HEW) argued that this would conflict with some state
laws permitting sterilization of minors in certain cases.

;

Protection of rights
“What we are after is a set of rules that will not
conflict with state laws, but would assure the rights of the
individual,” a department spokesman said.
Suggested was that a special panel be set up to
approve sterilization of a minor. However, guidelines must
be created to deal with mentally retarded patients. As Ms.
Hutchinson pointed out: “Even this must be broken down
into categories, such as are you dealing with
‘environmentally’ retarded children” where a better
solution might be to change their locale.” Additionally,
she asked whether it was permissible to sterilize the
mentally retarded when considering that “a solution to
meotal disorders may be found tomorrow. The mental
problem of today may be trainable tomorrow.”
Citing the “fundamental principles of voluntarism,"
Mr. Guttmacher has called for a working conference of
representatives of consumers, legal, mental retardation and
medical experts to recommend safeguards to protect
against involuntary sterilization. The Relfs are prepared to
testify this week before Sen. Edward Kennedy’s
subcommittee on health. Georgia State Rep. Julian Bund
stated: “It may have been a well-meaning act, but it strikes
us as inhumane.”

�ACLU threatens SA
with pending law suit
The Niagara Frontier Chapter
of the American Civil Liberties
Union (ACLU), on behalf of the
Buffalo Labor Committee, has
threatened to file suit against the
Student Association (SA) for
alleged violations of the
Fourteenth Amendment’s due
process clause.
In a letter addressed to SA
President Jon Dandes, ACLU
council Leonard Klaif maintained
that the SA’s recent expulsion of
the Labor Committee had been
enacted without “written
notification of charges.”
The Student Association
initiated its action after receiving
reports that Labor Committee
members had violently disrupted a
meeting of the Martin Luther
King, Jr. Coalition, injuring
several members of the Buffalo
Communist Party.' Also, Labor
Committee spokesmen indicated
to SA they would use force again
if need be.
At a controversial meeting of
the Student Assembly soon
afterward, a motion to revoke the
Labor Committee’s Club Status
because of a violent ideology
“inconsistent with the goals of the
Student Association” carried by a
vote of 22-5.
Contending that the Assembly
meeting had been too hastily
convened, Mr. Klaif said; “Before
the recognition of a student group
is revoked, [there must be]
adequate time, at least five days,
to prepare for the hearing.”
Additionally, he said the
decision was based on hearsay
testimony at the expense of
eyewitness accounts, a factor
which prevented the organization
from cross-examining its accusers.
Violated guidelines
Defending the SA’s action, Mr.
Dandes said the Labor
Committee’s “public admission of

using violence to get its point
across violated Student
Association guidelines.” While
admitting there was ho written
notification of charges, he
indicated the matter had been
discussed with the Labor
Committee at length over the
telephone.
Student Rights Coordinator
Cliff Palefsky insisted the
evidence was not of a hearsay
nature. "When we spoke to
members of the Labor
Committee, they told us they
would again use force if they saw
fit,” he said. He agreed with Mr.
Dandes’ assertion that such
violent stances “did not fit into
Student Activities Guidelines."
Commenting on the threats of
legal action, Mr. Palefsky said a
court of law could not be
convened until the case was first
heard before the Student
Judiciary and in the event of an
appeal, before President Robert
Ketter. “Before you go to a court
of law, he said, you must exhaust
all administrative remedies.”
Before taking action, Mr. Dandes
said he would await a
recommendation from associate
director of Student Affairs Ron
Stein, before deciding on a course
of action.
Satisfactory hearing?
Interviewed Wednesday by The
Spectrum Dr. Stein maintained
the outcome depended upon
whether the prior Student
Assembly hearing “satisfied the
hearing that was required” and
whether recognition was
withdrawn because of a “violation
of conduct.”
Referring to a recent Supreme
Court case, Healy v. James he
said that by denying recognition
to a local SDS group without a
hearing, the administration of
Central Connecticut State College
had violated the due process
clause of the Fourteenth
Amendment. ‘The key issue
here,” Dr. Stein noted, “was that
the administration’s accusations
were supported only by a fear of
what SDS was saying. There was
no evidence of misconduct.
“We have to see if there was
such misconduct and determine in
our own minds whether the SA
conformed to Healy y. James.”

Blow

up

the world

War gamers rewrite history
by Lenore Tunkd
Spectrum Staff Writer

On a calm Sunday afternoon in 1973, against
overwhelming odds, Napoleon defeated the British
and Prussian armies in the Battle of Waterloo.
According to historical accounts, Waterloo was the
scene of Napoleon’s final defeat by Wellington in
1815. But for two members of the War Games Club,
which meets every Sunday at 2 p.m. in Norton
Union, history was rewritten.
Founded in 1971 by James Venn and Blaine
Mischel, the club gives its members the opportunity
to carefully plan and recreate famous battle scenes
from world history. Members representing a cross
section of society derive their enjoyment from
playing a game that is “an intellectual challenge,”
according to Mr. Venn
Many war gamers, whose chosen fields include
history, math, physics and computer science, are
transformed into historical figures when they play
Waterloo, Austeriitz, Gettysburg, and Stalingrad.For
Mr. Mischel, the games represent “a way for
somebody to transport themselves back in time,
among those making decisive decisions in history
a way to get out of the inundate world and become
Napoleon, Hitler, Stalin.” Although full battle
uniforms are not required, appropriate accents are
often utilized for more historical effect.
...

Swamps and rivers
Some war game groups apparently practice “a
form of hero worship,” Mr. Mischel remarked. A
“German mystique abounds in some areas, and some
clubs are even named after German battalions.”
The games are purchased from both Avalon Hill
and Simulations Publications Inc. (SP1), which
considers itself “the only professional full-time
conflict—simulation-game design firm in the U.S.”
Each game is accompanied by written historical
background, detailing the events which led to the
battle and often includes the actual positions
occupied by the opposing forces.
A typical game board is covered by thousands of
hexagons. Areas are marked according to various
obstacles, swamps, rivers, mountains and deserts.
Each player is given cardboard squares annotated
with symbols representing infantry, weapons, air
power, etc.
The squares are also marked with numerals
representing their contestants various strengths.
However, complications may arise when determining
the probable outcome of a given conflict. In these
cases, additional explanations are often required.
Blow up the world
Players are free to determine their own strategy.
In Nepoleon at Waterloo, the French forces are
outnumbered as they were in actual history. As a
further aid, dice are used in determining the variable
odds.
Realism is important to many war gamers, Mr.
Mischel explained: “In the playing of a game it is
often important to ■ recreate the situations. Real
battles are often lost by human stupidity, which a
real war gamer would be incapable of.”

The realism in some games often prevents a
player from participating. One Vietnam veteran
refusted to play a war game which stimulated the
Easter Offensive by North Vietnam against the
South. He felt it was “too realistic.”
Recent issues of Strategy and Tactics, a
magazine for war gamers, published by SPI, include
articles explaining the effectiveness of armored
weapons and the vulnerability of ships during World
War II. These details, according to Jim Dunningan,
President of SPI, “represent an interesting way to
approach history.”
Players often learn of the recurrence of past
decisions in present-day warfare. According to one
player, “these same decisions are made by generals
today.”
Not all war games deal specifically with battles.
The Origins of World War II is a diplomatic game
utilized by mahy teachers because it provides an

New town by new campus

Audobon given the go-ahead

After four years of planning
and bickering, the state Urban
Development Corp. (UDC) and
the Amherst Town Board
signalled the go-ahead for the first
phase of residential construction
in Audobon, the planned
community just north of the new
Amherst Campus now under
construction.
At a Town Board meeting last
Monday, approval was granted for
plans for a 60-acre section of the
$500 million new town, removing
the last obstacle in the way of
major development. Audobon is
to be a meticulously planned
expanse of 2000 acres housing an
estimated 27,500 residents in
9000 housing units. Construction
will be continued in phases for
another 15 years, according to the
latest UDC estimate.
Action began last February on
the “infrastructure” of the UDC
project, consisting of Clearing,
grading and drainage and pond
excavation. This is in preparation
for the development of roads,
walkways and major utilities to
serve Audobon.

University campus on the south.
Sweet Home Rd. on the west and
Campbell Blvd. and Ellicott Creek
on the east. Included within those
borders is the entire Amherst
campus labelled by planners the
“Campus Extension.”
By virtue of the “Campus
Extension,” UDC reserves the
right to build on the new campus
if it enters into agreement with
the State University of New York.
Arrangements are still in the
discussion stage, however UDC is
known to be eyeing favorably the

prospects for non-University
student housing construction in
specially designated areas of the
campus. There is presently a
paucity of student housing
planned for the Amherst area.
Groundbreaking for the first
residential construction site is
targeted for the end of July, says
David F. Parker, Audobon general
manager. A community center,
plus 314 housing units, are
planned for the section. Almost
half of the first block of housing
will be subsidized through federal
and state financing, however only
about 20% of the rents in the new
town will be subsidized.

Three levels of authority

Subsidies can reduce rental

payments up to approximately
one-quarter of a family’s income.
The lowest annual income allowed
for eligibility is $5400 for one and
from $7500-58300 for a family
of four.

One novel feature stressed by
UDC spokesman Wolfgang
Rosenberg is the structure of
community authority for the
project now in the process of legal
finalization.

Facilities in Audobon will be
subject to one of three levels of
authority: public ownership of
the town, common ownership of
community associations, and the
individual responsibility of the
private resident.

The Senate Watergete
Committee has given President
Nixon “just a very short period of
time” to reply to its request for
presidential tape recordings, and
has indicated that it will subpoena
the tapes if the President invokes
the doctrine of executive privilege
and refuses to surrender them
voluntarily.
The request came after Mr.
Nixon ordered the Secret Service
to withhold all information
regarding the tapes from the
committee. The committee is
seeking the tapes, which recorded
virtually all of President Nixon’s
conversations since 1971, to
verify Watergate-related charges
about possible presidential
involvement. A White House
spokesman asserted that Mr.
Nixon considered the tapes to be
“Presidential documents” and
would withhold them according
to the same doctrine of executive
privilege which the White House
previously inovked in refusing to
surrender presidential papers.
Archibald Cox, the special
Watergate prosecutor, also plans
to ask for the tapes, and since he
is a member of the executive
branch, the separation of powers
doctrine might presumably be
inappropriate to bar him from
obtaining the tapes.

the Secret Service not to describe

tapes are stored or who has access
to them.
As to whether the tapes would
be released to the Senate
Watergate Committee, deputy
press secretary Gerald Warren
said: “I am not able to
comment.” President Nixon is
scheduled to meet with
Committee chairman Senator Sam
Ervin, Jr., to resolve the
availability of Presidential papers
to the committee. The disclosure
of the tapes should widen the
scope of their discussion. Senator
Howard Baker (R., Tenn.), the
committee’s ranking Republican,
said the tapes were “enormously
important” and the committee
should have access to them.

The tape recordings, disclosed
in dramatic testimony Monday,
have thus become the focus of the
Senate investigation as to what
role President Nixon may have
played in the Watergate cover-up.
The basic issue is “what meetings

took place,” said Samuel Dash,
the committee’s chief counsel.
“We kpow that there are records
of those meetings,” Mr. Dash said.
“1 don’t have to draw the line

All of Mr. Dean’s discussions
with the President were said to
have taken place in presidential
offices where recording devices
were triggered “automatically” by
conversation, according to Mr.
Butterfield. He insisted that their
purpose was to make precise
records available “for posterity,

questioning by Senator Herman

Butterfield said the President’s
guests were not told they were

Lies
Credibility gap became a hackneyed phrase a long time
ago. It generally meant inflating enemy casualty figures and a
falsified incident now and then at the time it became cliche.
But for all the public cynicism and downright public
acceptance about government lying, Richard Nixon has
breathed new meaning into the phrase.
The euphemistic "gap" term can no longer be applied to
an administration that has put its own personalized patent on
lying. As the headlines announced that up to 4000 secret
bombing raids against Cambodia took place in 1969 and
1970, the reaction of a public numbed by the torrent of
Watergate disclosures was somewhat less than outraged. So
another administration position had been declared
"inoperative." Yet this comes from an administration which
asked the world to believe, against eyewitness accounts and
photographs from French and Swedish journalists, that it was
not bombing civilian towns or dikes. The world did not
believe. The world was right.
Lest it be said that the falsehoods were the handiwork of
a few rebellious generals, note that spokesman Jerry
Friedheim (the Pentagon's Ron Ziegler) admitted that the
falsified reports to prevent disclosure of the raids were "fully
authorized" by President Nixon. This is the same Jerry
Friedheim who asked us to believe we were not bombing
civilian targets. This is the same President Nixon who is
asking us to believe he knew nothing of Watergate.
The disclosure of sensitive tape recording devices and
tapped telephones in the Oval Office, Camp David and other
locales should tell us something about the man who insists he

was horrified by the bugging of the Watergate. How will he
explain to various Prime Ministers, Presidents and other
heads of state that their confidential summits at the White
House were actually being taped? How will he explain to the
assorted governors, senators, officials and citizens that their
private talks with him were recorded? How can the American
people even hope that he knew nothing of Watergate when
his own phones were tapped, his own office bugged?
They can't, and they don't: 71% of the American people
believe Mr. Nixon was involved in Watergate, at least on the
cover-up level. Yet less than two in ten feel he should be
impeached. This amounts to an endorsement of the most
deceitful President in history.
Any remedies we might recommend are easily rendered
"Inoperative" by Presidential lying. Congress is considering a
vital War Powers bill, but how can it assert its war-making
responsibilities when fabricated reports are sanctioned by the
Chief Executive? How can it be sure that the August 15
bombing deadline will be adhered to when 4000 raids on
Cambodia have already been covered up?
In our world negotiations, must foreign visitors to the
White House feel inhibited by hidden bugs? How will they
regard the word of a man proven time and again to be a
fraudulent liar?

What of federal government promises to the people of
our nation? Americans are discovering that last November
they re-elected a man whose staff systematically subverted a
national election, tampered with trials, burgled offices, spied
on dissidents and harassed political enemies. A man who bugs
his own office. A man who secretly bombs villages. A liar.
After Nazism was cleansed from Germany the citizens
said, "we didn't know." Americans will have no such excuse.
If they allow Richard Nixon to t'emain in office, they will
sanction all that he has done. It will be said, "they knew, but
they didn't care." History is watching.

To the Editor.

Unfortunately, I obtaine; only this week a copy
of The Spectrum of 8 June 1973. Yet, I still find it a
necessity to respond at

this late date to an article in
issue, “CAC projects must benefit the
students,” because the matter is troublesome for all
that

student organizations.
As The Spectrum article correctly pointed out.
Community Action Corps is funded by mandatory

student fees and is therefore subject to SUNY Board
of Trustees Rules and Regulations for use of
mandatory student fees. These guidlines state in
part, that mandatory student fees may be used for
programs of a “benefit to the campus community”
and of “educational, cultural, social, and recreational
value” to students on SUNY campuses. According to
this document, the administration of each SUNY
campus is to designate a person to enfore these rules.
During the spring semester, 1973, Community
Action Corps was singled out for a narrow,
conservative interpretation of these vague guidelines

by the University designee.

Until that time, CAC had not been bothered at
all by the administration; in fact, it even experienced
moments of tacit approval. For example, in
December, Vice-President Albert Somit referred to it
as “the missionaries of the University”; earlier in
1972, President Robert Ketter, on a local television
show, mentioned CAC as an example of what the
University is doing for Buffalo. In March, however,
the expenditures of CAC suddenly began to be
questioned. Under the pretense that CAC was not
spending money directly for the benefit of U/B
students, most of its REP’s were held up. At one
point, CAC was so harassed it could not pay the bills
for its movie program because the REP’s did not
state explicitly that the films were shown in Capen
140.
It is incomprehensible to me why an
administration that, dt one time lauded CAC and still
ostensible supports it (“Dr. Lorcnzetti had great
praise for the good intentions of CAC volunteers
.”) would suddenly reverse
itself and attempt to
curtail the organization’s activities. Rather, we
would expect it to assist us. There is nothing in the
SUNY Board of Trustees guidlines that states that an
organization’s expenditures must be made directly to
the benefit of students. If an admittedly “arbitrary
administrative decision” had to be made why could
...

CAC’s programs bear no relevance to the University
is highly disputable.
It is not at all reassuring to read that Dr
Lorenzetti never sought to place CAC’s budget in
jeopardy. The officers of Community Action Corps
at all times perceived the administration’s actions as
a direct threat to CAC’s operation. It is true, as The
Spectrum*rticle states, that “verbal guidelines” were
agreed upon at a May 10 meeting between myself,
Steve Blumenkrantz of Sub-Board 1, Dr. Lorenzetti,
and several other members of the administration
What is not stated is that CAC was lucky to have had
only volunteer reimbursement and Be—A—Friend
temporarily discontinued. At an earlier May 3
meeting, representatives of the administration were
intractable in their demand that CAC discontinue all
programs that did not fit their narrow interpretation
of the Board of Trustees guidelines. 1 suspect that a
file of letters in support of Community Action Corps
from state legislators, community leaders, faculty
members, and students prompted the administration
to alter its position.
As Dr. Lorenzetti remarked in the article, the
new verbal guidelines will allow CAC to continue
much as it did before, although the focus of several
projects will now be changed. CAC is currently
seeking sources other than student fees for funding
Be—A—Friend and the project will be running in
September. I still hope to convince Dr. Lorenzetti
that volunteerism doesn’t preclude reimbursement
for expenses incurred, e.g., bus fare.
However, I still resent this incursion by the
administration on the autonomy of a student
organization. The administration’s argument that
mandatory student fees must be spent directly for
the benefit of students could conceivably have
meant the end of Community Action Corps as we
know it. It is a indeed a precarious position to be in,
knowing that the administration can Override the
desires of the student body (as expressed by the
number of CAC volunteers and by the approval of its
budget by the Student Assembly) by arbitrarily
invoking its power to interpret and reinterpret an
ambiguous set of regulations on a moment’s notice.

Bogdanovich overcomes built in handicaps

but then, so was Bogdanovich’s first
and white
success, The Last Picture Show. Superficially, it
appears that he is trying to exploit a trick he tried
before. The tendency is to applaud him for his initial
use of the stark effect in Picture Show and then
berate him for laurel-resting in Paper Moon.
Further consideration reveals that this ongoing
use of black-and-white is little more than
coincidence. As Bogdanovich says, it really is “hard
to picture the Depression in
color.” If any period cries for the
drabness of B&amp;W film, it is that.
No, Bogdanovich should be feted,
not faulted, for reusing the device.
A third problem in the film
might have been cuteness. Since
Shirley Temple first buttoned up

frantic efforts to capture cute kids
on celluloid. Children supposed to
be “darling” are zealously coveted
by commercial film makers.

True, the elder O’Neal does not really do a bad
job. He tries very hard to create the
three-dimensional role of a con man with a soft heart
and “an eye for the ladies.” Problem is that such a
character is not meant to be three-dimensional, but
only two-dimensional; 2 lA at the most".

Peculiar person, this Peter Bogdanovich. He
begins with an abominable idea for the film Paper
Moon. The principle components of the project beg
to be developed stupidly; it is as if director
Bogdanovich set out to make a movie with every
strike against him. Beginning* with potentially
trumped-up nostalgia, he combines an old technical
trick and some canned cuteness to produce a film
that seems doomed from the start. Sounds just
awful, doesn’t it?
But Paper Moon is a very fine movie!

handicaps?
Lessee. Time setting is his first trouble. As
anyone who can read a paper knows, a choppy wave
of frothy nostalgia has got this country floundering
in salty seas. Paper Moon is set in 1936: the
Depression. In itself, this is disturbing enough;
practically every third film these days is set in the
era leading up to or during World War II. The sights,
sounds, and mood of the period are becoming all too
familiar.
There is an annoying tendency to include in
such films, relics from the era with the express
purpose of making people who lived through it smile

Editor’s note: This is thefirst of a series of
articles expressing an opinion on various
workings of the
segments of the
Albright-Knox Art Gallery.

that some of the reasoning by Mr. Wood
will seem rather incredible, but the
following really is the undistorted actual
content of the discussion.

by Jeffrey Wechsler

Inferior decorating
I asked Mr. Wood why the Reinhardt is
in the Oriental Art room. He answered, “I
think it looks nice there.” I guess I thought
he was kidding so I continued, “No, I mean
what is the reason behind hanging the
Reinhardt in the Oriental room?” He
elaborated: “Well, the Oriental room is
decorated in orange and yellow. The
Uue-peen painting goes well with the
colors of the room. The sculpture give a
calm and restrained feeling, and so does the
painting, it adds a different, yet pleasing,
color variation to the room.”
I suppose I was still incredulous. I began
thinking up possible valid reasons (at the
edge of validity, to be sure) and offered
them to him. “Is the painting there because
Ad Reinhardt was an avid student of
Oriental art?" I volunteered. “No, not at
all,” Mr. Wood replied. “Perhaps it is
because Reinhardt’s very early style was
somewhat reminiscent of Oriental
calligraphy,” I suggested. “Oh no,” he said,
“It’s there just because I think it goes well
with the room-1 like it there.’’
Yep, the guy likes it there. For the same
reason (hat some artsy socialite might buy
a painting (Oh, that would look marvelous

personal whim presiding over the
positioning of the work of an important
painter. And more instances of the most
tenuous excuses for positioning exist in the
Albrigh-Knox. So, on to the next case.
In the downstairs galleries there is one
room in which the Gallery’s Pop Art is

Probably the most obvious reflection of
curatorial concerns in any museum, to

either the casual or expert viewer, is the
methodology of organizing and displaying
the collection
in other words, how and
where the paintings are hung and the
sculpture positioned. In this article, I shall
discuss this methodology as practiced in
the Albright-Knox Art Gallery, referring
to the visible evidence of the current
set-up in the Gallery.
Let it be known at the start that I
believe there are gross errors of judgment
in many display situations. Encumbent
upon me now is the burden of proof,
which I am prepared to give in quantity.
It is supposedly poor practice to play
one's trump card first, but I will forego
that warning in order to make my point
immediately, using something wjuch has
been a pet peeve of mine for the past three
years. This is the astonishing presence, in
the midst of a room of Far Eastern art, of a

Reinhardt.

That this painting is preposterously
misplaced is blatantly evident to even the
most uninformed layman. Indeed, I have
noticed numerous visitors stop in their
tracks in catching a glimpse of this work,
register puzzled looks, and often utter the
all-too-true “What’s this doing here?”
For an answer, one must go to the curator,
James Wood, who is responsible for the
distribution of the collection. And, in fact,
I did.
Now please believe me. 1 will admit that
the conversation here is paraphrased, and

This particular room, always
Pop-flavored,, is just as unswervingly a
mess of stylistic chop suey. Also currently
swizzled into the Pop is a fine figurative
painting by Richard Diebenkorn and an
odd, spare abstraction by Robert Irwin.
There is simply no rhyme or reason to the
selection for this area at the present

displayed. Usually one may find there

works by Indiana, Oldenburg, Rosenquist,
Dine, and Marisol. The Gallery does own
enough Pop Art to make a very coherent
room. But that doesn’t happen. Instead
works vastly different in content and
intent are used as filler.

Jean Dubuffet's “Portrait of Henri
Michaux” is always shown in this room,
and its inclusion there amounts to an insult
to the artist and/or a startling misreading
of the artist’s meaning. As everyone
knowledgeable in contemporary art relizes,
Dubuffet is involved with art based on the
irrational, the insane, the childlike, and the
‘ugly’. These more spontaneous, free, and
unintellectualized tendencies are claimed
by Dubuffet to be more natural, and
therefore truly valid and powerful as vital
human experience.
So why is Dubuffet in the Pop Art
room? Since Dubuffet viciously hacked
away at his thickened pigment with no
concern for polished results, he produced
figures which purposely suggest the
drawing of a child, And since Pop artists
sometimes deal with child—related imagery
(Marisol’s “Baby Girl,” Dine’s “Child’s
Blue Wall”), a minor and superficial
resemblance in subject matter is seized
upon to make mincemeat of art history.
Cruelty to animals
In the view of this room illustrated here,
one sees two animal sculptures by Anne
Arnold, and paintings by Dubuffet,
Sutherland, and Fracis Bacon. Why is the
Francis Bacon there? Simple! It contains
the image of a dog, and the curator seems
to think that goes just fine next to Anne
Arnold’s cat. Although the
Albright-Knox’s example of this painter’s
work is a weak one, the fact that Bacon’s
art is a horrifying view into the tortured
open wound of modem’s man’s psyche is
never considered. Another artist is insulted.

An easy way to start bringing some
coherence to these rooms would be to

Gallery’s Liberman. This is not yet a
satisfactory solution, but it is a step away

In fact, Paul Bowles is rarely even

book deal with marriage, religion,
professionalism and violence. But
we only see glimpses of a
recognizable humanity that is
hidden benath “what is both
bizarre and wise in the
civilizations in which he [the
author] has settled.”
Each of the stories contain
some needle-like moments of
violence which »r~ masked by a
false understanding and are used
so irresolutely by the author that
one could easily accuse him of
out-and-out sensationalism. All
but a few stories have no ending
or theme worth remembering.
What one takes away from this
book is a smalt case of more sharp
things, all embarassingly
commonplace.
There are some stories in the
book (‘Tea on the Mountain,”
“At Paso Rojo” and “Pastor
Dowe at Tacatc”) which carry the
same aura as the Nescafe Gold
Cup Coffee commerical with its
smiling south American and
African natives gaily toiling over
bushels of coffee beans.
The plagued protagonists have
no idea what the natives are doing
to them, but the author sheds no
light on it either, and in the end
he is mourning for the white man

“Call at Corazon” and “How

There are some more complete
stories: “Under the Sky,” “1000
Days for Mokhtan” and ‘The
Scorpion,” all of which deal quite
admirably with human sexuality
and privacy, and “Senor Ong and
Senor Ha” which is about a
seven-year-old opium dealer. But I
think that my favorite in the book
is “A Distant Episode” (perhaps
for not altogether serious
reasons), which is about a
professor who gets his tongue
ripped out and is taught obscene
gestures and dances in order to
entertain large numbers of
barbaric people.
As entertainment, this book
would probably beat watching
'Dick Cavett, or even going to see
Shaft in Africa. However, one is
left with the sense of a hollow
North American Action. The
obscene and “bizarre” wilderness
for this man is, after all, only the
regular life of other peoples. And
I hardly think that this kind of
reportage is necessary when the
people, especially from Latin
America, have been so eloquently
capable of radiating their own
culture.
Nevertheless, this book which
first appeared in 1950, “has been
critically acclaimed as Paul
Bowles’ most important work, but
has been unavailable for many
years.” So all I can say is; get it
while you can. It may be good for
a lesson in condescencion, or
better yet, for light reading at
night to your Japanese poodle.

�‘The Last of Sheila
abandons a tradition
9

by Bonnie Semons
Spectrum Film Critic

Tis a rare and beautiful art
form
the whodunit movie
that has spanned the finest years
of suspense-filled flickdom. The
breathtaking Basil Rathbone (as
snooper Sherlock Holmes) helped
initiate a tradition that has made
Alfred Hitchcock a veritable
superstar among film makers.
From Warner Olan and Sidney
Toler as the inscrutable Charlie
Chans to Patrick Macnee (in
Sleuth ) as the detective writer
with a bent for the macabre, the
silver screen shines with mystery
and suspense.
The Last of Sheila had the
misfortune to appear while the
sweet memory of Sleuth was still
fresh in our minds. Since Sleuth
was a difficult film to follow,
Sheila may not have been as bad
as it appeared to be. But that is
doubtful, to say the least.
Writers Steven Sondheim and
Tony Perkins were traitors to the
magical mystery tour. The only
thing that was beautiful or arty
about The Last of Sheila was its
cast, and their wardrobes.

producer who spent his talents on
kiddies and commercials. And to
further prove man’s inherent evil,
Sheila featured Dyan Cannon,
Raquel Welch, Ian McShane and
Joan Hackett as not-so-innocent
accessories.
The story centers around
Clinton’s de ire to avenge the
death of Sheila, the only woman
he was capable of loving. Under
the pretext of producing a movie
(to be entitled, appropriately
enough The Last of Sheila ) he
assembled a coterie of
Hollywood’s most beautiful
people. His intention was to
humiliate each of them
for
reasons unbeknownst to mankind
and to cajole Sheila’s killer into
an open confession of the deed.
-

-

But when you’re crying
After the initial ten minutes of
the movie, the cast begins to
realize that they are about to be
subjected to some of the worst
psychological torture of their lives
(well, roles). “Clinton brings
people to their knees, and then
hands out little presents,” says
Dyan Cannon.

feist riffs

Page and Led Zeppelin rock
the And with sound barrage
Zeppelinitis struck Buffalo last Sunday night.
The disease infected some 20,000 young people and
many of them are reported to be still recuperating.
The symptoms are quite unique and contagious.
First of all, you wake up Sunday afternoon to Page’s
heavy, raunchy lead guitar on every radio station
your receiver can reach. Then when you go through
your drawers in search of some underwear you find a
ticket that reads, “Led Zeppeliti/In Concert/July 15
at Memorial Auditorium.” After washing up a bit
you realize what the whole thing means: Tonight is
THE concert.
That’s the way it was for most of the heavy
rockers in town. For me it was just going to check
out a super group that’s been around for a number
of years and I’ve failed to see. I guess, then, I qualify
as an objective observer. I had heard so many stories
about them in concert that I really didn’t know what
,

to expect.

Barrage of riffs
After I entered the Aud and found my seat, I
immediately noticed the immense arsenal of
electronic equipment on the extra raised stage. There
were also three crystal balls dangling from the
scaffolds (we’ve seen that before), a good number of
filtered lights and a large wheel with multi-colored
filters around the perimeter. Very, very impressive,
but can they play well?
“Rock and Roll” and “Celebration” started
things off and I must say that both tunes sounded
slower than usual. Soon after, though, the Zeppelin
put it all together and the entire concert turned into
a most interesting trip.
Jimmy Page let loose a barrage of heavy riffs
during “Dazed and Confused” and then “Heart
Breaker.” He mirthfully danced across both ends of
the stage spinning and turning, playing his axe just
above his knee. With a look of ease on his face, Page
reeled off lightning fast leads that could be heard in
North Tonawanda. The crowd began absorbing the
tremendous energy that was being released from the
stage.

John Paul Jones was featured on the organ
during “No Quarter” which is from the Houses of
the Holy disc. The stage crew turned on the smoke

machines as Jones played an eerie, mysitical lead.
The effect was very swamp-like and spooky as the
smoke covered the entire stage. I generally dislike
these psychadrenic excursions, but the music and the
sinoke effect went together too well for me not to
appreciate it.
During the change of tempo in “Stairway To
Heaven” the crowd rushed the stage as the lights
were turned on the crystal balls. Here again Page let
loose with driving riffs that filled every inch of the
Aud, against a steady rhythmic piano by Jones.

John Bonham did a drum break during “Moby
Dick” which was neither impressive nor depressive. I
can’t stand drum solos because I think they’re just a
cheap time killer that’s used to rest the band. An
audience should never be exposed to that type of
waste. Bonham is an excellent drummer; but fuck
}
the solos please.
The crowd wasn’t as rowdy as I expected them
of assholes who did
throw cherry bombs into the crowd, which is fucked
up, but most of the time the audience listened
appreciatively to the Zeppelin as they performed.
Robert Plant and Jimmy Page teamed up nicely
on ‘The Rain Song.” Page imaginatively utilized a
double neck guitar by playing chords
twelve
string section and leads on the six string section.
Plant’s voice was strong and always managed to
reach the back rows of the Aud.
After a medley of their oldies, Zeppelin wento
into“Whole Lotta Love.” Explosions and fires flared
up from every corner of the stage as they dispensed
every ounce of energy into their music. Additional
security men were rushed in as Plant and company
walked off the stage. They came back and finished
things up with ‘The Ocean.”
Before I split 1 want to say one thing. It’s very
easy to put down groups that use heavy visual and
extravagant sound systems in their acts. One can
easily say, ‘That’s noise
not music at all.” When
it’s done well it’s artistic in itself. It takes
imagination, a good feeling for their own music and
good improvisation to perform in this manner.

We of the Legislation Committee of the Western
New York Peace Center feel President Nixon can’t
be depended on to keep his word on August IS to
end American involvement in Indochina.
Mr. Nixon has stated he will not hesitate to
return to Congress to ask it for the necessary
authority to continue the American war effort after
August IS if he thinks it necessary.
In the latter weeks of July both Houses of
Congress will take action on the Defense Department
Authorization Bill which contains operating money
for continuing air war and an Administration request
for 1.2 billion dollars in military aid for Indochina.
During this month Congress is also schedules to
vote on anti-war legislation:
1) Jhe Church-Case Bill prohibits U.S. military
involvement without prior Congressional approval in
North and South Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia and
also applies to all future appropriation bills.
2) The Foreign Economic Aid Bill limits
economic aid solely to humanitarian assistance. It
chiefly involves amendments limiting the which fund

interrogation centers) as well as scaling down the
total amount of aid.
As stated by Representative Thaddeus J. Dulski
before a House vote on May 8, 1973:
“The only Constitional authority claimed by the
Administration for the continued bombing has been
that of protecting American lives. With our troop
withdrawals this rational is no longer valid.”
“We are jeopardizing American lives by sending
our fliers over hostile territory with risk of more
lives lost and new prisoners taken in another
undeclared war.”
We of the Peace Center are urging everyone to
write their Cojngressmen asking their support for
legislation that ends funding for any war operations
in Indochina.

Frustrating experience
To the Editors of The Spectrum and Ethos.

Vol. 24, No. 6

Friday, 20 July 1973

It is a very unhappy and frustrating experience
to read your publications. I cannot help but believe
that University students are capable of more than
being able to tell one rock group from another

(although this is no mean feat).
All of your writers and artists seem obsessed
with themselves. They appear to have an endless
capacity for self-punishing sarcasm and neo-Holden
Caulfield humor. Not only is this boring, but it is the
heartbeat of what makes America. grate (pun
intended). You should tell them this. With any luck
they will be embarrassed enough to stop.
I usually don’t bother to write this sort of letter,
but after that incredible set of issues with the lame
Mariposa reviews, the silly article a)&gt;out Jon Dandes’
death-serious struggle with WKBW and the
frighteningly callous review of Paper Moon,
something in me collapses.

hidden the Nolde landscape. Ha, ha\"
This Nolde incident is akin to the time
some clown got the bright idea to ignoble
an Oldenburg sculpture by imprisoning it
in the display case of the Gallery’s
cafeteria. Such irresponsibility (and, I
maintain insult) heaped upon the
collection is a pitiable situation.
Can poor placement be avoided in the
Albright-Knox? Some say there isn’t
enough space or enough coherent art to
produce coherent arrangements. This is not
true. There are works in the vault (and
other places) that should make Buffalo art
enthusiasts gasp. This veritable gold mine
of unseen art could easily solve nearly all
the aforementioned hanging problems.
What’s in this amazing underground
horde? Well, that’s another story. Next
week’s story.

What'* wrong with this picture? The gallery-goers first problem is finding it.

�Employment

aid

Educational centers combine
September 1 will mark the beginning of a new
chapter in State University of New York’s service to
the Western New York community when two
existing service agencies, the Buffalo Urban Center
and the Cooperative College Center, will be
consolidated as the Educational Opportunity Center.
The combination of these two agencies follows
recommendations of the State University Master
Plan and is one in a number of similar mergers
throughout the State.
The Buffalo Urban Center opened in 1966 to
provide educationally disadvantaged students with
opportunities to upgrade occupational skills, find
gainful employment, and advance through remedial
and compensatory education.
Since its inception, the Urban Center has
enrolled over 5400 students and helped hundreds of
them toward these ends.
Ryland Melford, assistant director of the Center,
foresees that the new Education Opportunity Center
will offer “the same type of services” as the Urban
Center presently does. Courses offered by the Urban
Center cover a wide range of occupational interests,
from comprehensive secretarial training to high
school equivalency and college entrance preparation,
as well as many areas in between.
“Many of these people find jobs immediately,”
said Dr. Melford. Still others are cross-registered in
both the Urban Center and the University.
Students at the Buffalo Urban Center attend
teg
tuition-free. Dr. Melford described the

services of the Urban Center as being to the
advantage of the entire community and its success
“phenomenal.”
The Cooperative College Center was created in
1970 to help educationally disadvantaged students
reach the academic standards necessary to enter
matriculated programs at two and four-year colleges.
Disadvantaged high school graduates who
successfully complete the College Center’s program
are placed as matriculated students at both private
and public campuses, usually in state-funded
Educational Opportunity programs.
Problems involved in combining the two
agencies may curtail the services offered by both this
summer. In future summers, the new Educational
Opportunity Center should be able to maintain a
level of operation equal to that of the regular
academic year.
Consolidation will also combine the
administrative responsibilities of the Buffalo Urban
Center and the Cooperative College Center. The
Urban Center, previously under the administration
of Erie Community College, will come under the
University, where the College Center has been since
its creation.
The ultimate decision of where to locate the
Educational Opportunity Center lies with the
University’s Facilities Planning Division. This
decision, as well as the selection of the Center’s
director, will hopefully be forthcoming in the next
few weeks.

�A WKBW disc jockey, censured last week for
nuking “scathing remarks” about the University by
Student Association President Jon Dandes, has been
criticized by certain administrators for “seriously
degrading” this campus.
Agreeing with Mr. Dandes that “if these
comments had been directed at an individual, there
would be grounds for libel,” James DeSantis,
Director of University Public Information Services,
said they reflect a lack of knowledge and
information.
Disc jockey Sandy Beach has been making
unfair comments about the University for the past
two years, he said. Accusing Mr. Beach of
stereotyping the University’s students as drug users,
he felt such a picture was misrepresentative.
‘The University is the lifeblood of this
community,” said Mr. DeSantis, and “the greatest
asset Western New York has.
“Students have done more to build community
relations in the past two years than ever before,” he
continued, with over 2000 of them presently doing
volunteer work in the city.

Word games
Mr. Beach, who could not be reached for
comment, is charged with using words from
commercials and records that in the context of the
University were considered offensiv . Mr. Dandes
illustrated this in a letter to the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC). Following a
commercial for a ceramics museum, he said that Mr.
Beach picked up on the words “master potters” and
in an obvious reference to marijuana usage, said
many of them could be found at this University.
In another case, while announcing the future
appearance of a faculty member who was also a
transportation expert, Mr. Beach said this was
appropriate “since there were so many trips being
taken on the campus,” according to Mr. Dandes.
WKBW’s general manager, Thomas Cronk,
seemed to feel that the station’s public service
programs which have often focused on the
University “have a prevailing impact over a couple of
one-liners delivered on a program.” However, Mr.
DeSantis felt that such discussion programs had a

small listening audience. There are four times as
many people listening to Mr. Beach’s broadcast,
contending that his comments do have an effect on
the community.

Negative coveragege
Citing a communication gap between the
University and the outside community, Fred
Tamalonis, director of the Alumni Association,
faulted the media for refusing to print or. say
anything favorable about the University. The media’s
favorite topic is publicizing “negative information”
since this is what attracts an audience.
Mr. Tamalonis said he could cite at least “five
major events” which “never reached the public”
because of the media’s failure to follow through on
press releases.
Noting that there are over 30,000 alumni in the
Western New York area, Mr. Tamalonis said that
“the degradation of the University is damaging.” The
community’s image of the University is based on the
occurences during the 1969-70 riots, he said:
“Inflammatory remarks reinforce what they believe
and they dig it.”
There has to be an “altitudinal change,” he said,
stressing the importance of the media’s cooperation.
“People know that the University is the first or
second most important economic influence in this
area. They have to know what else we do.”
Noting that Mr. Beach was “living in the past,”
Mr. DeSantis said his constant references to drugs
could very well lead to an increased use of them by
his audience, many of whom are high school
students. He explained that jokes about drug use
among 23,000 college students could result in his
audience’s feeling “that if it’s okay for all those
people, it’s okay for me.”
An FCC spokesman said Mr. Dandes’ letter was
received, and an answer is forthcoming. He said that
complaints of this nature fall under the “Fairness
Doctrine” which outlines procedures for personal
attack.
A spokesman for WKBW said that both Mr.
Gonk and Program Director Jeff Kaye, were on
vacation and could not be contacted.

by Dave Hnath
Spectrum Staff Writer

After a successful won-7, lost-4
record in Buffalo’s first year of
varsity soccer play, Coach Bert
Jacobson is optimistic that his
squad can at least equal, if not
surpass, last year’s success.
Despite losing only six players
from last year’s squad, Mr.
Jacobsen was out on the
recruiting trail in Canada and
Europe, hoping to find the
“scoring punch we really didn’t
have last year.” With no
scholarships or grants to work
with, all Mr. Jacobsen had to offer
to those who were qualified were
tuition waivers. After the
wholesale waiver cuts this year, he
has nothing to offer them and
Buffalo “lost at least 15 players,’’
including eight Canadians, who
could have helped the Bulls this
fall. Mr. Jacobsen is still hoping
for 6-8 players who will be of
immediate help this season.
Where the Bulls need help most
could be in goal. With last year’s
starting goalie
Jeff McBee
returning, but not much else, this
is the club’s “thinnest area, but
not necessarily the weakest," Mr.
Jacobsen noted. McBee’s only
back-up is sophomore Mark
Hollenbeck, since last year’s
back-up goalie, Willie Wood, is
transferring to Stony Brook.
Hollenbeck collected little playing
time last year, and should McBee
become injured, Mr. Jacobsen
would be hard pressed for an
experienced

substitute.

Depth needed
Another portion where a lack
of depth might hurt could he at
Halfback. Returning from last
year’s signing .squad ake Jerry
Galkiewicz, a solid player as a
freshman last year, and Heron
Allen, who, along with forward
Alex Terimire, were last year’s
steadiest players. Having lost
co-captain Bob Hayes to
graduation and Gary Anderson to
Buffalo State, Mr. Jacobsen will
have to look to junior college
transfers and walk-ons to bolster
his midfield.
Perhaps
the biggest
improvement this year will come
from the defense. “The defense
had letdowns when they shouldn’t
have last year. Experience, and
getting used to, playing with each
other should help," said Mr.
Jacobsen. Last year’s co-captain
Jim Leinert will move back from
midfield to aid sophomores Jim
Baker, Dave Brennan, and Bob
Case, who carried most of the
fullback load as freshman last
year.
Two new faces will appear on
the forward line this season, Justic
Reaves and Jude Ndenge. Reaves

DJ’s quips deemed offensive

is a transfer from Monroe CC, and
he’ll rejoin right wing Dimitries
Mihalitsas after a year apart.
Ndenge is a sophomore who had
to sit out last year due to NCAA
eligibility requirements. Ndenge
didn’t take the necessary tests to
project a sufficient grade-point
average to play, a requirement
which has since been abolished.
Hurt by graduation
The line was the one area hit
heaviest by graduation, losing
insides Kola Oseni and Don Earl,
and wing Edgar Rojas. Despite the
heavy losses, the forward spot will
probably be the Bulls’ strongest
suit this fall. Joining Mihalitsas in
returning from last year will be
insides Terimire and Tom Schratz,
and wingers Doug Leininger and
Nabil Youssef. Terimire was last
year’s leading scorer, and the
offense will most likely center
around him this season. Though
he didn’t play that much last year,
Mr. Jacobsen feels Youssef has
“unlimited potential’’ and could
be a surprise. Leininger and
Schratz were starters at the end of
last season, and will most likely be
found at left wing and center,
respectively, again thisycar.

The 1973 schedule finds one
team from last season gone,
replaced by two tough opponents.
The Bulls have dropped Gannon
College from this fall’s slate
replacing them with Brockport
State and Ohio University.
Brockport was entered in last
year’s NCAA College Division

champipnships.

,

while ; Ohio

advanced to the
quarter-finals of the NCAA
University Division playoffs,

losing

to

ciiampion St. Loiiis University.

Despite the tougher schedule, Mr.

Jacobsen feels the Bulls “should
be stronger this year
we’ll
continue to surprise as we did last
year. The difference between
good versus a great season lies in
keeping everyone healthy, and the
bench coming through if and
when necessary.”
The keys to winning this year
will be how well the starting 11
works together, and how well the
substitutes work with the starters.
Should they be successful in this,
Buffalo’s hooters could be well on
their way to a successful season.
The schedule for the Bulls
looks like this: Sept. 22 vs.
Syracuse (1 p.m.), 25 vs. Canisius

Oct. 6 vs. Niagara (1p.m.), 10 vs.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

“There is no one plare in Buffalo specifically set aside for
women to congregate in a non-institutional way”
Rose
Roberts, spokeswoman for the organization of a Buffalo
women’s center.

Where does a woman go if she
leaves her husband and is without
a means of financial support?
How can a woman new to the city
find a reputable gynecologist? Is
there some place that gives
instructions to women in home
plumbing?
Rose Roberts and Stefanie
Phillips are two of the women in
the Buffalo community who are
actively planning the creation of a
community women’s center to
deal
with
such
concerns.
According to Ms. Roberts, the
center will not only handle
women’s problems and act as an
information service, but will also
be a place for women to meet for
fun and recreation.
The center, planned to open
some time in the fall, will provide
emergency housing facilities for
women
who
are
changing
residence or who “just need a
temporary
calm, non-hassling
environment.”
It
also
will
organize an information and
referral service to provide a
“central clearing house” for

In addition, a bulletin board
for direct input and exchange
among area women will be
available at die center. Another
goal of the project is to provide
women
encouragement
to

To further “this end, the center
will publish a newsletter to share
women’s creative endeavors and
will perhaps display women’s art
in the center.
Educational aspects planned
for the center include rap sessions,
health teaching and training
seminars and eventually a medical
self-help clinic. Ms. Roberts said
the rap sessions will be “ihore

plans to utilize personnel from the
Women’s Studies College at the
State University of Buffalo in
organizing and leading these
activities as well as drawing from
resources in the city.
Break from academia
Ms. Phillips explained that the
center was a community center to
be established and perpetuated by
Buffalo residents. “Although it is
important to maintain in contact
with the University and its
resources, we want the center to
be somewhat disengaged from the
University atmosphere.”

funded by the state legislature.
Leaders of the Assembly Ways
and Means Committee have agreed
to include funds for the building
in the deficiency budget for the
current state fiscal year, according
to the office of Assemblyman
Chester R. Hardt (R„ Amherst).
With this budget scheduled for
approval early next year, Mr.
Hardt said the Budget Division,
which controls the outlays of
state funds, has agreed to free
money so that construction for
the $23.9 million project can
begin soon.

Vigorous protest
President Robert Ketter had
protested vigorously when the
1973 session of the Legislature
adjourned on May 28 without
allocating the capital construction
funds for the library, despite
assurances
from
repeated
legislatures that money would be
available.
Apparently, it was understood

that the money was to be
included in - the supplemental
budget for 1973-74, approved by
the legislature just prior to
adjournment.
Within the next few weeks,
several meetings took place with
Assemblyman Hardt and State
Senator James McPharland in the
hope of securing the allocation
either during a special legislative
session in July or by the end of
the calendar year.
Stressing the overwhelming
importance of favorable legislative
action. Dr. Ketter maintained: ‘if
this general library, administration

not completed in time, there will
be no such facilities for students
and their supporting faculty and

Fluctuation in prices
Mr. Saunders discovered similar discrepancies
while
going over various other Requisition
Encumbrance Purchase (REP) forms, and questioned
why instead of having set rates for Clark Hall
services, maintenance fluctuated prices with each
individual event. Explaining that the greatest
disparity appeared between black and white groups,
he maintained: “I’m not saying they’re making a
price difference based on race, but the possibility
does exist.”
Attempting to uncover reasons for the cost
discrepancies, Mr. Saunders met last week with Herb
the
Office of Facilities Planning’s
Merrill,
coordinator for non-academic utilization.
Interviewed Tuesday by The Spectrum, Mr.
Merrill said any charges of racial discrimination were
untrue and without substance. He explained that
setup and breakdown costs depended solely upon
two factors: the “time of day” the event is held and
the number and “grade” of crewmen required to
accommodate the event.

Wages doubled
According to him, setup and breakdown usually
occur after 4:30 p.m. when the normal working day
is over, causing wages for maintenance men to
almost double. This could not be avoided because
academic classes have top priority in the use of Clark
Hall and all non-academic organizations must plan

their activities around them. Mr. Merrill said.
Senior maintenance supervisor Vern Larsen
agreed that it was extremely difficult, if not
impossible, to prepare Clark Hall during the normal
working day although efforts were constantly being
made. “We prefer to get in there during working
hours because it’s not easy to get men to work
overtime,” Mr. Larsen maintained.
Referring to the Nov. 30 evening appearance of
Angela Davis, Mr. Larsen said maintenance could not
begin setting up until late in the afternoon because
of basketball and girls’ volleyball practice. “This
inadvertently increased the costs of maintenance

costs at Clark Hall events amidst allegations that
Black groups were being charged unfairly.
The controversy originated late last spring, when
SA assistant Treasurer Tyrone Saunders observed
that maintenance costs for black groups were
consistently higher than those for white-sponsored
organizations.
Specifically, Mr. Saunders found that only
$68.16 was charged for the setup and breakdown of

there were

emphasized.

‘Grade’ important
Mr. Merrill explained how the “grade” of
maintenance men who do the actual setup and
breakdown also contributes to the disparity in cost.
Because of a recurring lack of available personnel for
overtime work, higher-paid supervisors and foremen
will often work the nighttime shifts, significantly
increasing the amount of paid wages.

To better demonstrate how time of
grade

day* and

directly affect costs, maintenance foreman
Chuck Sonntag did a comparative, step-by-step
analysis of three -different Clark Hall events.
Referring to Angela Davis’ evening appearance on
October 2, he said a crew of one supervisor and five
workers worked a total of 24 hours (four hours
apiece) during the regular working day.
“We got into the gym at 2 o’clock in the
afternoon,” so we were able to pull out the east
bleachers and begin rolling the mats out,” Mr.

Bol

BuJie^r
Sonntag said. “Because of this, we only worked 12
hours overtime, so the entire cost for setup and
breakdown was $104.64.”

‘Everything

overtime’

Discussing the April 5 evening engagement of
Chisholm,
Shirley
Mr.
Sonntag ,&gt;surjnised:
“Everything was overtime.” Consequently, the crew
of one supervisor and five men was paid $205.68, or
a total of 30 overtime hours, the only regular-hour
work being the , hauling of 200 chairs from

Larsen said: “Working mostly during regular working
hours cuts your cost right in half.”
Responding to specific charges that the higher
costs were a product ol racism, Mr. Sonntag said:
“We don’t even gel notified who will be appearing in
Clark Hall until the actual appearance,”
“As a matter of fact,” added Mr. Larsen, “Black
groups usually are better controlled such events than
their white counterparts. They have what they call
their own police force so when damage occurs, the
offenders are immediately ejected. There’s never as
much debris or damage among Blacks as among
whiles.”
Mr. Merrill indicated that complaints from past
Student
Association administrations concerning
piaintenance’s alleged exorbitant costs had once
prompted his office to make arrangements whereby
students could work setup and breakdown on a

voluntary basis.

The idea was abandoned, however, when
“students who promised to come didn’t show up.”

Summer orientation for incoming freshmen will
begin its six-week program on Monday, July 16.
Each session will last for two and a half days and will
accommodate approximately 150 students. Their
tiiriFVill be balanced between academic planning
and recreational activities.
Students will be acquainted with registration
procedures, available counseling opportunities and
academic requirements. To consolidate the
enormous amount of information and relieve some
of the confusion, academic advisement and
registration for courses will be completed within one
day, instead of a day and a half as in previous years.
Commenting on the tremendous amount of
information freshmen are expected to digest,
Dorothy Wynne, associate director of advisement for
the Division of Undergraduate Studies (DUS), said it
is hoped students would be more familiar with the
University in the fall as a result of orientation.
Initial contacts
Chuck Klepak, an orientation coordinator
representing the counseling center, said student aides
will be answering questions and helping with
students’ individual problems. ‘The whole program
depends on them,” said Mr. Klepak, because they
will be the students’ initial contacts with the
University.
Other activities intended to insure some
excitement outside the academic realm are being
organized by Student Association. SA President Jon
Dandes said one of the highlights will be midnight
games of Ringaleviio. Jokingly referring to the
“seriousness” at this University, Mr. Dandes asked:
“What better way to acclimate the students to the
university environment than to play a game of
Ringalevio?”

Screwed' by audits

Taxes o

Joes’ checked often

Reactions to the W)\ite House list of political
enemies to be “screwed” by federal agencies,
particularly through tax audits by the Infernal:
Revenew Service (IRS), ranged from anger to
cynicism.

“1 suppose Hitler and Stalin may have had such

lists,” said historian Arthur Schlesinger, Jr., “but no
American President. Nixon saw himself as being
above the law, and those under him acted
accordingly.” Comedian Bill Cosby said he was only
a “token black on the list,” while actor Paul
Newman announced he was “sending Gordon Liddy
to pick up my award.”
It has become clear that various people on the
list had undoubtedly been audited with more than
the usual random frequency by the IRS. Previous
Watergate testimony has made clear that the FBI and
the QA have also been used against political enemies
of the White House.
i
k
'John Dean submitted three White House memos
to the Senate Watergate Committee, one of which
charged that Republican appointees at IRS “lack
guts and effort” and “appear afraid and unwilling to
do anything that could be politically helpful.”
Another said the White House staff was unable
to crack down on tax-exempt foundations that “feed

has been retrieved in the nick of time from the

Newsday senior editor Bob Greene, was audited
in early 1972 after he conducted an investigation of
the financial affairs of Charles (Bebe) G. Rebozo, a
close friend of the President, in October 1971. Mr.
Dean testified that “I got instructions that one of
the authors of that article should have some
problems.” Sen. Walter F. Mondale (D., Minn.), who
has undergone thorough IRS examination in the last
two years, said: “It makes you wonder whether they
were doing anything else over there.”

Ensure re-election
Mr. Mitchell admitted going along with certain coverup operations
to avoid scarring the President and to ensure Mr. Nixon’s re-election.
The coverup was designed to keep the lid on the wiretap story and
White House domestic surveillance activities, he said.
He also said both he and the late FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover
opposed a White House intelligence gathering plan which sanctioned
burglaries in the name of internal security.
Mr. Mitchell said President Nixon ordered the plan implemented
although it was rescinded five days later, on July 28,
to Mr.
Hoover’s opposition.
Mr. Mitchell told the committee; “I opposed the plan for the very
simple reason that in the case of domestic problems I was very much
opposed to surreptitious entry, mail covers and other aspects involved
at that particular time,”
The plan was designed by Thomas Huston,

a former leader of the

Young Americans for Freedom, while he was on the White House staff.
It Called for monitoring telephone calls, opening mail and break-ins as
part of an alleged attack against leftist groups.
A memo from Mr. Huston written at the time cautioned the
President that the plan was “clearly illegal.” Despite this, Mr. Huston
urged adoption of the plan.

-

Quarterbacks and hatchetmen
Some of the political intelligence was apparently
shoddy. New York Jets quarterback Joe Namath was
listed as a member of the New York Giants. Sam
Lambert, former executive secretary of the National
Education Association, who voted for Nixon in 1968
and considered himself a supporter, said; “If I were
an enemy of the President, heaven help the real
enemies, if this is the slipshod way they do their
intelligence work.” Thomas O’Neill of the Baltimore
Sun, who died in April 1971, three months before
the list was completed, was also op the list,
i
Edwin O. Gufttmari, national editor of The Los
Angeles Times, was labelled “a highly sophisticated
hatchetman against us in ’68. It is obvious he is the
prime mover behind the current Key Biscayne effort.
It is time to give him the message.” Columnist Mary
McGrory earned her place for her “daily hate-Nixon
columns.”
Columnist Max Lerner referred to the
disappointment of those who had not been included
on the list: “People scanned it avidly to see who had
‘made’ it, who had not. It was an ‘in’ thing to be on
it.” James Reston of The New York Times said all
you had to do to make the list was tell the truth,
“but you can qualify if you are against the bombing
of Cambodia or keep talking about Watergate.”

Paranoia
Mr. Wicker said: “From the most powerful
institution in the world, did these men have nothing
left-wing political causes” and urged audits to better to do than to gaze, with fear and paranoia, at
uncover information about “leftist organizations outspoken citizens, and call them ‘enemies’ for being
taking advantage of tax shelters.” A Congressional so?"
Mr. Lerner agreed; “A good psychological term

Strict safeguards for Arming

-

Drugs: Moving Backwards
The Administration's recent decision to
cut back funding for drug treatment
programs while increasing funds for drug law
enforcement represents the latest step
backwards in America's retreat to a
law-and-order mentality.
The process is cyclical. In the social
spending phase, money is allocated to
treatment programs amid high public hopes
of success. Most likely a given program will
meet with modest success, a few setbacks and
considerable waste along the way. Expecting
a panacea, the public becomes disenchanted
at the failure to achieve instant results and
begins to clamor for increased law
enforcement. The pendulum swings back the
other way.
This is evidenced not just in the area qf
drugs, but in the country's dissatisfaction
with the social programs of the Johnson
years. So now we are swinging headlong to
the right, spearheaded by calls for the
"ultimate deterrent" of capital punishment.
Centuries of experience in Western society
have proven that capital punishment is
simply not effective, yet frustrated citizens,
satiated with skyrocketing crime, are
demanding its return. When new ideas don't
work we go right back to the old ones that
didn't work either. This myopic vision is now
repeating the past mistake of viewing drug
addiction as a crime, not a disease.
The detoxification and methadone to
drug-free programs have had some effect:
heroin addiction here is declining after
reaching its peak in 1969. New programs
must reach those who abuse soft drugs,
alcohol, ups and downs, as well as hard drug
addicts. And they must be backed up by
psychological counseling and vocational
training programs. We can take someone off
heroin, but- if we can't find him a job.

chances are he'll be back to the needle before
long. The British have had relative success
with a humanitarian approach to drug abuse,
but we've learned nothing from their
example.

Response

JD/PhD

To the Editor

To the Editor
Your June 29 issue carried an unsigned article
on the JD/PhD program. As one of the “industrious
lot” (your words) engaged in the program, 1 would
like to counter some of the impressions created by
your article. If your reporter had talked with more
than (apparently) one student in the program, this
would be unnecessary.
The structure of the JD/PhD program, beyond
requiring four years of course work for two degrees,
does not require a greater effort from any member
student than other graduate programs. The course
load/semester is the same. Where greater effort is
necessary is in combatting the feelings of frustration
and existence of alienation which are at present
structurally inherent in the program.
The student in the program is exposed to two
different socialization processes. Each of these
presents the student with a vision of how she or he
should be. Each uses sanctions (grades, jobs, funding,
etc.) to mold the student to see the world and hurt
or herself through this vision.
The socialization at law school aims at making
practicing lawyers. Whatever you are when you go
in, you are supposed to come out as a lawyer. The
staff recognizes this fact, and most students demand
it. After all, they want to be members of the bar.
The socialization in graduate school differs. A
job in the academic biz is still not the stated premise
of graduate education.
The student in the program is pressured to
develop two different visions of what he or she is. He
or she is pressured to relate to both his or herself and
others through this vision rather than as a total
person, as themself. Alienation is precisely this way
of relating to self and the world.
Normally a student may not be aware of the
process she or he is exposed to. The students in the
JD/PhD program tend to become increasingly aware
of their alienation as the content of the two visions
conflict. The result is a good deal of frustration. You
are damned whether you do or don’t. A further
result (noted by Seymour Martin Lipsett in Political
Mann) is that “Individuals who are subject to
pressures
driving them in different political
directions must either deviate or escape into

Instead, we have Gov. Rockefeller's
tougher drug laws, which promise to lock up
many teenagers and street corner pushers
while business booms for the financiers who
"never touch the stuff." But the public wants
results and street busts make good headlines.
Instead we have innocent families being
terrorized, their homes illegally invaded by
poorly-trained drug agents in their zeal to
fight the war on drugs. It is this same zeal
that has led to everything Watergate stands
for, using crime as a justification for
apathy.”
police-state tactics.
Undoubtedly, drug programs need new
directions; waste must be trimmed, and
additional
research
is
mandatory.
Undoubtedly, steps must be taken to protect
our citizens from crimes stemming from drug
abuse. But overzealousness has led to
terrorizing by the State, a very real danger
with frightening ramifications. And stricter
laws across-the-board, instead of trying to
isolate the suppliers, result in more petty
arrests, clogged courts, overcrowded prisons
in short, a perpetuation of the crimes it's
designed to stop.
—

Misimpre

Strangely enough, in deviation the real value of
the program may appear. What your words of
“innovation, challenging and something extra” do
not convey is that the program’s benefits to the
person develop only after the student places his
or
herself intellectually outside of the program in order
to view the action of the program’s structure and
beings to consciously deal with it.

Strict and enforceable safeguards must be

incompetence to leave such matters to
chance.

I

Last year it was decided that members of
Campus Security would be selectively armed.
The subcommittee charged with writing rules
and procedures for that selective arming has
just completed its report.
While we view the original decision for
selective arming with much skepticism,
feeling introduction of guns on campus may
hurt more than help, we regard the
implementation of that decision with
apprehension and concern. There have been
too many instances in recent years of
downright
irresponsibility
by Campus
Security officers. Documented .instances or
poor
judgment,
improper
training,
over-reactioji to situations and blatant
harassment create serious doubts as to the
wisdom of providing these officers with guns.
If selective arming is to be done, it must
be highly selective. No officer must be armed
unless he qualifies according to a number of
stringent
prerequisites.
Proper

is
important. Just as important, however, is
mandatory training in behavioral science,
interpersonal relations, self-defense with
non-lethal weapons and reactions under stress

not repeated.
Guns should never be fired at a fleeing
person, or used to threaten anyone, but
should be drawn only in cases where there is

The ferry to the Mariposa festival site feels like a
boatful of European emigrants herding themselves
over , the waters to the promised land of the New
World. A vast sea of journeyers crowd around the
gateway to the dock, waiting for the magic boat to
finally arrive and the golden doors barring them
from the pier to slide open.
They grab their babies and blankets, their
knapsacks and sleeping bags, and press their way
towards the open door with fervent and monolithic
determination.
After a brief minute of hope for salvation, the
the mysterious
glass door inevitably slides shut
eyelid of the boat god closing, to weary and helpless
man. Each of them has at least moved closer, and the
back ranks are gradually replaced by new souls who
begin their wait in the taxing summer heat.
As the ferry pulls out of the dock, those on the
stern wave to those still on shore, like the relatives
they left behind in the old country. The
double-decker boat holds several hundred people.
They are revived by the long-awaited transportation,
as well as by the shade and the breeze that somes
swelling from the cool blue waters.
On buses and subways, people are inhibited and
uncomfortable with one another, but there is
something about this boat that makes people
namely, the fact that they’re on it.

Freak-arts
There is much more on the Toronto Islands than
the Mariposa grounds. Most of the land here consists
of grassy picnic areas, woods, and beach. Although
they could be as well publicized to tourists as are
Ontario Place, O’Keefe Center, or the Science
Museum, the city of Toronto seems wisely content
to stick to local residents for the Islands’ clientele.
They come down in family groups to picnic and
swim, to ride the long, canopied miniature trains
around the paths, or to visit the kiddieland

The first-time ferry rider on his way to Mariposa
may think that all of those diverse middle-Canadian
families are going to the folk festival as if the folk

after, instead of being another form of freak arts.
But when the straight folks stream off the boat
in different directions than the freak folks, it is clear
that the vast majority of the eight thousand
festival-goers is drawn from a small minority of the
population. Many are called, but few choose to
come.

Endless legions of the select pilgrims trek
through the picnic grounds to the Mariposa shrine,
relocated this year at a more distant corner of Centre
Island. The old area has reportedly been partially
flooded by the rising water levels of Lake Ontario.

Do no adjust your TV
Several different stages approximately form a
ring around the site. Each runs performances
simultaneously for about ten hours each day, from
Friday to Sunday. Like choosing a television
channel, the audience consults their schedules and
decides which program to watch.
They plop themselves down as near to the
selected performance as possible; but almost always,
a solid wedge of people is already entrenched for
several dozen yards before the stage.
Often, on Saturday and Sunday, the crowd at a
given stage area is so immense that those on the
periphery hear other performances more clearly than
or, hear no music
the ones they are watching
clearly at all.

Knox

Marine Midland’s collection
elicits accolades and concern
by Jeffrey Wechsler
Spectrum Am Editor

compelled to direct primary praise to the work
“Morning Pale” by the French artist Georges Noel.
This painter, long connected with the School of
ftris, has recently met the American art challenge
by moving to New York and exhibiting amongst
his high-flying competitors. Afhis last show, Noel
emerged triumphant, being acknowledged as
successful in steering his art through new directions
-

The relationship of business to the arts has
always been a topic inviting heated discussion.
Action taken in this field by individual companies
has ranged from the inspired to the deplorable. An
interesting example of one concern’s ventures into
the art world is the exhibition of paintings from
collection
of the
Marine Midland

Bank-Western,
Art Gallery for an indefinite period.
One’s curiosity is directed, of course; toward
the kind and quality of the art purchased for an
institutional collection, and also the process and
people responsible for the selection of the works.
Let us first consider the paintings themselves,
though, leaving the other questions for later. As it
turns out, despite certain lapses, the quality of the
pieces is good.
In mentioning specifics, this reviewer is

Noel’s work is simultaneously
complex and calm, and quite
satisfying.
Another fine work is that of
the formalist artist-critic Walter
Darby Bannard. “Chatumec No.
2” presents Bannard’s typically
odd, sweet-and-sour palette
(here lilac, dulled pink, powder
blue and mustard) that he
always measures out in tasteful
proportions to deliver a lyrical
yet solid painterly presence.
Forever modifying his style,
this painting reflects the artist’s
1970 compositional recipe,
based loosely on the theories of
Hans Hofmann. Long thin
rectangles, eroded by variable
hues, float somewhat centrally
in a shifting color field which
alternately hides and reveals

Parker’s earlier bulky, brushy
ovoids. The green and black
forms visually associate to
permit a suggested feathery fall
of the red element. A smallish
work for the artist, it remains a
sensitive one.

illustrates the stylistic progress of a so-called
“second-generation abstract-expressionist,” so
Grace Hartigan’s “Moon Landing” shows us what
changes were wrought on her broadly painted
abstract landscapes. Actual objects, constantly
implied but never completed, now seem to jostle
and pile atop each other. More “detailed”
inexplicable imagery peeps out of the background.
Hartigan’s shapes are deliberately clumsy,
heavily outlined in black, and rendered in muted
and dark colors such as grayed browns, ochers,
terra cotta, deep green and restrained yellow. An
overall impression registers some influence from
Gorky and some from Miro, giving interesting
results with a great latitude for development.
Robert Goodnough’s “Adventure No. 2” from
1963 shows a continuation of his personal
exploration of Cubism, wherein flat collage-like
shapes scramble all over, with layering and
complexities of depth

considerable debt to Picasso enough to insert faces

the master’s witty physiognomic shorthand.
arrangement of the
Goodnough’s cogent
uncomplicated color scheme of mostly primaries
with green and gray gives a feeling of a more
variegated palette.
'

Circular reasoning
Worthy of mention also is the deceptively
simple-looking painting by Alexander Liberman,

consisting of merely a large blue dot on an
incomplete white circle. Everything in “Omega
XIV” pivots on the subtle placement, which holes
the few elements in suspension, as if stopped in
rotation. The blue circle constantly exchanges
visual linkage between the white area and the black
“background” in this example of Liberman’s flair
for taking minimal pictorial incident and playing it
for all it’s worth.
Having noted the superior works in the show,
if is now necessary to scrutinize the selection
machinery responsible for the acquisition of the
Marine Midland Bank collection. In a forward to
the exhibit catalogue, Gordon M. Smith, recently
retired director of the Albright-KnOx Art Gallery,
mentions two names as being the primary arbiters
of choice.
He acknowledges his own advisory role
it has been a privilege to have had a part in
assembling the collection ...” and then declares
that it is
Seymour H. Knox who, through his
enthusiasm, interest and dedication in obtaining
distinguished examples of contemporary art for the
bank, has been the person most responsible for the
current exhibition.”

“

...

the buying power behind the vast majority of the
contemporary art purchases for the Albright-Knox
Art Gallery.
Immediately, and quite naturally, one is
irresistibly drawn to make comparisons of the
relative astuteness of judgement evidenced between
the two collections. It is most unfortunate to
report that given the artists and styles mutually
shared by these collections, the choices for
purchase made for the bank are often better than
those made for the art gallery. Examides, of
course, are in order.
The Albright-Knox owns four works by the
artist Nassos Daphnis. Personally, I have never
thought much of Daphnis’ work and, due to the
low quality of this quartet of works (two small
bland reliefs, an astoundingly vapid sculpture, and
a targe bland painting), I consider these purchases
taken as a whole to be a terrible waste of money.
Four (or fewer) other good works could have easily
been substituted to strengthen the collection.

Daphnis' new deal
However, such is not the case with the
Daphnis owned by the bank. This nine-foot square
painting, presenting a format of arcs radiating
symmetrically from each corner, totally took me
aback with its sheer visual power. Employing
lustrous epoxy paint and an extremely simple
design, this work dates from 1968. The
Albright-Knox’s 98” high epoxy clunker dates
from 1967. The bank, not the gallery, got the
advantage of waiting it out until the artist
crystallized his potential.
Even more painful is seeing that painting by
Georges Noel in the bank’s ownership. Noel
originally made his name with an individual
variation on matter painting, where he scratched
lines into granular paint-paste. Geometry is a
relatively recent and radical shift in direction. Mr.
Knox made a gift to the gallery of a very early
‘hard-edge’ Noel, from right around the time the
style switch was made, and once again the art
institution is stuck with an aesthetic lemon while
the bank chalks up a nice investment.
This is not to say that the bank never got hit
below the vault either A few years ago, Mr. Knox
bought up a whole slew of paintings by
Argentinian artists. These works comprise what is
probably the biggest group blight currently
festering in the gallery’s collection.

Direct purchasing
In a conversation with museum personnel, this
reporter was told that the Marine Midland’s
selection was entirely Mr. Knox’s choice, with a
few counsels from Mr. Smith. This raises some
intriguing roads of exploration, since Mr. Knox
(with somewhat more advice from Mr. Smith) is

"Blue Bar" by Jack Bush

Pandora’s paintbox
With one eye belatedly on American
‘hard-edge’ and optical art, and the other on the
cash register (certainly neither eye could have been
looking at the paintings), a gang of these artistic
unfortunates exploded forth with a deluge of
mindless stripings, dottings and tapings. A few
compose what 1 call the “Spirograph School”
wherein the painters, obviously unconscious of
their products, whip out silly little parodies of the
children’s toy, with decidedly less originality than I
have seen come from young users of the

Spirograph.

"Marlin's Magic" by Paul Jenkins

�But even here the bank is better off. Only two
of these assumed artists. Ary Brizzi and Eduardo
A. MacEntyre (even the latter’s name seems
suspect) got space from the Marine Midland,
whereas the gallery has approximately ten of these
horrors to waste its storage space.
Other examples are also in evidence. Better
works by Jenkins, Dorazio, Krushenick, Pearson
and Sander are present in the bank exhibit. Often
the improved quality is the outcome of simply
giving an emerging artist time to mature, or giving a
mature artist a chance to conquer a new style (e.g.,
Noel).
In the case of Paul Jenkins, the too-early
problem is glaring. His developed style is one of
diaphanous color washes overlapped into loose
amorphous forms. Although popular with the
public, the artist has never gained much critical
favor, including this writer. Jenkins’ canvases often
lapse into unthinking splashes of prettiness with no
formal framework.

A matter of color
With the Marine Midland’s picture, though,
Mr. Knox picked up one of the better works by
Jenkins that I’ve seen. There are even some
passages of sensitive color at the top (in dark
just a
colors!), and the composition isn’t bad
couple of garish hues mess up the bottom.
But for the gallery, Mr. Knox was so early that
he didn’t even catch a painting in Jenkins’
color-wash style. Instead, this purchase finds the
artist at the end of a period of splotchy
tachiste-type efforts. This freeform application
might have become a fruitfully pursued trail, but in
the gallery picture, it is left unresolved. So, zero
points in a risky oeuvre to begin with.
“Chickasaw 2” by Ludwig Sander is in the
bank’s collection and is, I believe, a work superior
to both examples of this artist’s painting in the
gallery, dated 1960 and 1963. The slight diagonal
skew of the lines in the bank’s picture, from 1970,
adds a tension which efficiently enlivens the
surface with something like a subtle centrifugal
force.
This type pf enumeration could go on.
However, I would Jike to include another way the
gallery got dealt a weaker hand. The Marine
Midland Bank owns, as is revealed in this show,
paintings by certain artists that the gallery does not
even have, and that is really unsettling. Prominent
among the omissions are Jack Bush, John Opper,
Camille Graeser and Simon Hantai.

A matter of time
For Hantai, it’s way too late to do anything
now, because this rather bypassed minor artist
produced his series of impressive semi-automist
works more than a decade ago. The Canadian
painter, Jack Bush, however, is now doing his best
work in a vein related to formalist and color-field
painting. Mr. Knox selected “Blue Bar for the
hank, a 1970 piece which catches Bush just this
side of his recent loosening up toward the more
eccentric usage of color and calligraphy for which
he is now famous.
Therefore, given the growing acclaim for this
artist, it is doubly unpleasant to find the
Albright-Knox lacking a picture by Bush. Why the
bank should get the benefit of possession of a piece
by an important artist while the institution
involved with art, the gallery, goes without, is a
question for which any answer would be illogical
and inexcusable.
When a patron of the arts splits his loyalty (or
funds) like this, the best that can result is an
awkward situation. The evaluation of Mr. Knox s
contribution to the Albright-Knox Art Gallery is a
major topic, and cannot be studied out of the
context of all the past acqusitions, whether good

Untouchables, or even Insight, but it’ll do even if it’s a bit sentimental
not like Alice Cooper’s “Desperado” which tells the cold reality of
what an outlaw ‘feels’ like ‘inside’ as he pulls that trigger which sends
lead death inta some poor guy’s face.
And if the record companies are smart, which I’m sure they are,
they’ll release ‘Tequila Sunrise” as the single cause it’s the latest rage

Country Casanova is so like everything else done by these guys that
it makes you wonder if you’ve bought the second Ip or the third Ip or if

Delightful theater experience

by Steve Aminoff
Spectrum Arts R eviewer

Stratford’s Shakespeare Festival has shown itself
to be one of the finest theatrical events on the North
American continent. Accolade upon accolade keeps
coming in from people of all theatrical tastes as to
how wonderful a weekend in this quiet Canadian
town can be.
My personal choice for the sleeper of the festival
just opened last week at Stratford’s “other” theater,
a rejuvenated old vaudeville house called the Avon.
'

the role is neat, clean and polished. Too polished. It
drips with “the handsome young lover” overtones.
Reality is lost.
AD in aD, it’s the theatricality which carries the
day in She Stoops to Conquer and makes one forget
some of the disagreements one might have with the
acting individually. The play has some sparkling
moments and shouldn’t be missed by lovers of this
type of theater.

Also to be noted is the joyful comic Jack Greley
portraying the smooth-talking friend to the family,
Doctor Spigelsky. He illuminates what is essentially
the lackluster dialogue of Andrew MacAndrew’s
translation from the original Russian. Greley has a
lovely, resonant voice and positively magnetic
presence; both of these he uses with optimum
efficiency.

multi-gabled structure which gives an astounding
sense of intimacy for a 2258 seat capacity house.

season.

The stage itself is thrust into a semi-circle of
seating and has many functional features including a
careful masking of the overhead lighting instruments.
Another nice thing about the place is that the people
who work there (and, indeed, throughout the town)
are gentle, efficient, courteous, and generally a joy
to stop and talk with.

She Stoops to Conquer is an old restoration
comedy museumpiece and this season’s revival of last
year’s offering. Written in reaction to the
sentimental comedy which playwright Oliver
Goldsmith perceived was ruining the late-eighteenth
century English stage, the play is a bouncy, if
terribly bourgeois (characteristic of this period of
playwriting) comedy, occasionally rich in wit.
Clearly leading the cast with a careful
performance is Tony Van Bridge who plays Mr.
Hardcastle, the kindly old master of an English
country house. Van Bridge shows great enthusiasm
in what could very easily be. an ordinary, stock
characterization. Alan Scarfe, the young rage of
these past two seasons, showed the prerequisite
amount of energy for a successful portrayal of the
young prankster, Tony Lumpkin.
They love Mr. Scarfe in Stratford and far be it
from me to take away from this potential cultural
hero. However, at times he does seem to cling to his
hand gestures and facial expressions (some curiously
reminiscent of Frank Fontaine’s Crazy Guggenheim
on the old Jackie Gleason Show) as though he might
fall off a cliff were he to even briefly abandon them.
Nuts to soup
A problem with restoration comedy is that some
people are convinced that all you have to do is throw
some tricky bits of stage business into a bowl, add
water, stir and you’ve got a performance. This is the
fate of Marlow (played by Nicholas Pennell), the
slender, blond young victim of Tony Lumpkin’s
pranks. He tries to establish an abrupt little giggle as
a motif for his performance. What he does establish
is a boring, transparent theatrical device.
Hastings, Marlow’s friend and traveling
companion, has a different problem. His handling of

insufficiently cutting the script. The Royal
Shakespeare Company deleted no less than 625 lines
in their production ofOthello this past winter.
Booze brawl booed
William also tries to turn a simple scene between
two men into a Busby Berkeley production.
Othello’s lieutenant Cassio, induced into a drunken
stupor by lago, gets into a swordfight with Montano
after the latter has accused Cassio of being drunk.
All of a sudden everybody and his grandmother
picks up a sword and starts battling with the person
closest to him. The scene docs not work.
The Stratford experience can be an amazing
weekend and a most welcome relief from the grind
of Buffalo existence. If money is a problem, one
excellent way of cutting down costs is by staying at
the Stratford youth hostel on Waterloo St. just off
Ontario St. You can get accomodations there for as
little as 50 cents or $2.50 if you feel you need linen
to sleep comfortably. Have breakfast while you’re

f

there, too.

Right across the street is the Queen’s Hotel. The
prices for everything there .are tourist expensive
except for the
glasses of cold Canadian
draught beer at the “Queen’s Court.” There’s also a
lovely Bohemian-type coffee house called ‘The
Black Swatv” at 31 Market Place. Admission is $1.50
which pays mostly for the folky live music every
night.
Having been twenty-one seasons in preparation,
a splendid time is guaranteed for everyone. The
Stratford Festival runs until October, but do
yourself a favor and go soon.

adjectives to the long list associated with
Watergate. In his words, “Watergate stands
for violence and murder..
Mr. Skolnick, a theorist and head of The
Citizens Committee to Clean up the Courts
in Chicago, advocates that the fatal flight
of United Airlines Flight 553 last
December 8 at Midway Airport, Chicago in
which Mrs. Dorothy Hunt (wife of
conspirator E. Howard Hunt) was among
the 45 persons killed, wasn’t an accident.
He isn’t just taking this from the blue »*.y;
his investigation bares the fact that seven
of the 43 passangers killed had cyanide in
their bodies. There’s a likely explanation
for this: the plastic seat covers in planes,
when they burn, emit a lethal whiff or
cyanide gas. Yet, the pilot of the plane,
Capt. Wendell Whitehouse, inhaled .211
mg/ml, enough to kill nine times as many
people. Even more inconsistent, of the trio
in the cockpit, only Capt. Whitehouse died.
Furthermore, the plane burst into flames
after impact. Capt. Whitehouse died before
they hit.
Perishing with Mrs. Hunt was Michelle
Clark of CBS TV’s “Morning News,” Rep.
George W. Collins, a Democrat from
Chicago, one Ralph Blodgett and one Jim
W. Krueger, legal representatives for the
Northern Natural Gas Company. According
to Mr. Skolnick, Messrs. Blodgett and
Krueger were transporting stock transfer
statements
that would have been
embarrassing to John Mitchell if they got
around. This may or may not be true; the
documents were nevef recovered from the
crash site.
Mr. Skolnick contends ‘it was no
coincidence that just after one-time

on the runway. On flight 553’s second
&gt;proach, word got to Capt. Whitehouse
too late and he never pulled out of his
approach.
(

Mr. Skolnick’s strongest evidence of
foul play is the coroner’s report. There are
other particulars that don’t seem so
incidental. The day after the crash, Egil
Krogh, Jr. was elected Under Secretary in
the Department of Transportation. Mr.
Krogh has claimed responsibility for the
break-in Of Daniel Ellsberg’s psychiatrist’s
office. On December 19, Alexander P.
Butterfield, a military and CIA man and
deputy assistant to the President on
domestic affairs, became head of the
Federal Aviation Administration (which
presides over the National Transportation
Safety Board’s investigation of the Midway
crash). Six weeks after the crash, Dwight
Chapin, a Nixon secretary, started working
in the United Airlines home office in
Chicago. Mr. Nixon’s old personal lawyer,
Herbert W. Kalmbach, has been a lawyer
for United Airlines and Marrior Corp.
(which serves in-flight food service for
airlines).

Mr. Skolnick disclaims most of the
medias’ treatment of the Midway
“accident.” Especially
The Chicago
Tribune's June 14 story which claims Mr.
Skolnick hasn’t produced anything in
writing. “We have
1300 pages of
documentation,” he says. National papers
are branding him “a liar.” The Citizens
Committee to Clean up the Courts has
been in operation for ten years, and
they’ve done just that, erasing some of the
impurities in the Illinois courts, including
the original denouncement of Federal
Court of Appeals Judge Otto Kerner.
As the Watergate investigation floods
our Republic’s shores, most of us can take
and leave what we want of it. In light of
the domino-like fashion that members of
the Nixon administration are falling as the
stain spreads, nothing can be overlooked.
The
appointments of key

lieutenants into the pockets of United
Airlines is just the type of strong-arming
Mr. Nixon’s officials are paying for with
resignations and indictments. To find out

catastrophe we should follow the trail of
blood the culprits left behind.

The more intimate sorts of musical contact are
much rarer than the legend of Mariposa would have
us believe, either on stage or off. One fine example
of it, however, is good old John Jackson, sitting just
outside the fenced-off performers’ area. He plays his
Mississippi John Hurt style guitar for the half-dozen
children (literally and figuratively) who sjt at his
feet, while engaging in a game of peek-a-boo with the
little boy who keeps popping out from behind him.
A greater diversity of folk performers could
hardly have been expected. Bai Konte, for example,

21-stringed harp, the “kora,” is an ingeniously
full-sounding solo instrument.

people to move -to the less well attended
performances.
At other times, the performers must certainly
have the disturbing sounds of other songs come
flooding into their ears. It is difficult test for the
cappella singers to stay on key and on rhythm, and
they met it surprisingly well.

Lions and butterflies

the festival that it is unfair that those who are being

those who pay sit in the heat of the sun.

But although music is clearly the primary folk
medium being presented, there are other colors in
the spectrum of folk arts. Ongoing demonstrations
of ceramics, weaving, leather crafts, instrument
making, glass blowing, and the like are centered in an
area right in the middle of the festival grounds.
Amateur guitar players abound in this region,

filing suit against the Student Association for
expelling the Buffalo Labor Committee from the
Student Assembly. A letter received by SA from the
ACLU on Wednesday, stated that if the Buffalo
Labor Committee was not reinstated to the
Assembly, they would continue to prosecute SA.

COLLEGES
Colleges reviewed favorably
I he Incoming Colleges Committee of the
Faculty-Senate has issued a favorable report on the
Collegiate system. The report was a direct response
to the Collegiate Prospectus’ charge that the
Collegiate System be reviewed ”... under the
auspices of the Faculty-Senate Committee on the
Colleges
within the two years following the
adoption of this prospectus. Since early last spring,
three-member teams of mostly faculty have been
evaluating each of the sixteen colleges. At issue was
the success of each college in achieving its goals with
regard
instructional capability and
budgetary concerns. The teams were also asked to
determine whether the goals and operation of the
colleges were consistent with the University’s goals
and decide what direction should be taken by it in
the immediate future.

�Cagers coach seek
rejuvenating recruits
by Dave Hnath
Spectrum Staff Writer
After a late start, Buffalo
recruiting is finally
getting into the swing of things.
Coach Leo Richardson, in his first
year at the head spot for the
Bulls, has used three of his five
grants in trying to reshape a
basketball program decimated by
graduation.
Mr. Richardson’s recruiting has
been aimed at finding a front line
to replace the likes of Curt
Blackmore and Jim Tribble, as he
apparently feels he has sufficient
firepower at guard returning from
last season’s squad.

basketball

Among the first recruits for the
Bulls this season were a pair of
center-forwards, 6-6W Mike
Jones, a freshman from Akron,
Ohio and 6—5 Tom Tobias, a
transfer from Neosho CC in
Chanute, Kansas. Should Buffalo’s
search for a 6-8 center fail to
produce a candidate for the
middle slot, either of these players
could possibly put in some time
there next season.
Jones, a left-handed shooter
who averaged 16 points and 16
rebounds as a high school senior
last year, was “recruited to play
next year,” according to Mr.
Richardson. Tobias is the same
type player as Jones, but has two
years of JC play under his belt,
and hopefully can provide the
experience that the Bulls vyill be
sorely Jacking in some spots early
in the coming season.

CLASSIFIED

the starting five this season.”
The guard situation looks to be
fairly solid. In a switch from
ment Buffalo basketball past,
there will be some height-in the
Bulls’ backcourt this year. 6-3
forward guard Horace Brawley
appears headed for backcourt
duty this time around, and his
backcourt mate could come from
a pair of 6-3 freshmen recruits;
Kevin Judge, from the Bronx,
N.Y. and Glen Springs Academy,
and Dave Ceisel, a local product
from Tonawands, N.Y.
Judge is “not yet comparable
to Brawley, but has the potential
to be as good as Horace,” said Mr.
Richardson.
A sharpshooting
forward at GSA his senior year
with a scoring average of 20.0 per
game, Judge will most likely be
placed in a guard spot come this
winter.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

WGR-TV’s Dan:
30 days in jail
•

Buffalo television newsman Stewart Dan was
sentenced yesterday to serve 30 days in the
Wyoming County Jail for refusing to answer
questions about the September 1971 Attica prison
riot posed to him by a grand jury.
Mr. Dan was given until 10 a.m. Monday to
obtain a stay from US. Supreme Court, if possible,
by State Supreme Court Justice Carmen Ball. The
WGR-TV newsman, who was inside the prison during
the five-day rebellion in which 43 lives were lost, has
refused twice to answer a number of questions
before the grand jury concerning his actions inside
the prison.
Mr. Dan said his belief in the ethics of his
profession as a journalist “compels me to take this
position.” Prosecutor Frank Cryan said Mr. Dan has
vital testimony about the brutal slaying of two
inmates during the Attica riot.

Nixon vs.

Congress

Antiwar bill is vetoed

—UPI

Dean says Nixon discussed
coverup, clemency with him

President Nixon vetoes Congressional legislation to cut off funds
for American bombing of Cambodia on Wednesday. The Senate
immediately attached the no-bombing amendment to another bill.
Mr. Nixon claimed the bill would “cripple or destroy” chances for
a negotiated peace in Cambodia and strike “a serious blow” to U.S.
credibility elsewhere in the world. Senate Democratic leader Mike
Mansfield angrily denounced the President’s decision and vowed to get
the same anti-war provision attached to bill after bill until
in his
words
the will of the people prevails.” Sen. Mansfield warned that
Mr. Nixon will be responsible for the shutdown of the federal
,
government if he persists in the air war.
The anti-war provision was attached to a $3.4 billion supplemental
money bill for federal agencies. The vetoed bill was sent back to the
House, which failed to muster the two-thirds vote needed to override
the veto. The amendment, which was the first cutoff of funds for
Indochina to clear both houses of Congress, and applied to U.S.
military activity in or over Laos and Cambodia. Despite the veto, as Mr.
Mansfield said, Congress can attach the anti-war rider to bill after bill
until the President is forced to sign it or the operations of government

Former White House Counsel John Dean has
testified that President Nixon knew of the Watergate
cover-up, probably knew of the bugging plans
beforehand, and then lied to the nation in Watergate
statements earlier this year.
In three days of testimony before the Senate
Watergate Committee, Mr. Dean stuck to his story
that Mr. Nixon knew of the cover-up as earl* as last
September and hinted that the President had
probably been aware of the bugging plans even
before the ill-fated Watergate break-in June 17.
Stating that he personally discussed elements of the
covenup with Mr. Nixon in March of this year, the
ex-counsel said the President lied to the nation when
he said in April that he had no first-hand knowledge
of White House involvement in the case. Mr. Dean
told the Senators that he personally had provided
the first-hand knowledge to the President.
The 34-year-old lawyer said Mr. Nixon
personally discussed with him, in March of this year,
hush money for the Watergate defendants, executive
clemency, and plans for blocking various Watergate
investigations. Although testifying under committee
immunity, Mr. Dean asserted he was not seeking to
implicate the President in order to escape
punishment. He repeatedly testified that there was
no doubt in his mind that Mr. Nixon knew of the
cover-up after their meeting in the White House’s
Oval Office last September 15. He was congratulated
by Mr. Nixon and former Chief of Staff H.R.
Haldeman on the way he was handling the Watergate
at that meeting, Mr. Dean said.
Cover-up discussed
Sen. Edward Gurney, Republican from Florida,
tried to get Mr. Dean to furnish something to

support his .charge that he was convinced of Mr.
Nixon’s knowledge of the cover-up following that
September 15 meeting. Pointing to the
congratulations he received for doing a good job, Mr.
Dean was asked by Sen. Gurney if it was possible to
read so much into a single statement. The ex-counsel
said the meeting lasted about 30 or 40 minutes and
included a number of topics, including the upcoming
trial of the Watergate defendants.

When Mr. Gurney insisted that Mr. Dean tell the
committee exactly what the President said, Mr. Dean
fired back; “My mind is not a tape recorder but it
does record the impressions of meetings very well.”
In a rundown of his meetings with the President, Mr.
Dean said he and Mr. Nixon discussed Watergate
cover-up activities on February 28, March 13 and
March 21. At their March 13 meeting, Mr. Dean said
the President told him that convicted Watergate
conspirator E. Howard Hunt had been given
assurances of executive clemency.
-

Mr. Dean also testified that the 1970 plan for
domestic spying by use of burglary, wiretapping and
mail monitoring
which had supposedly been
shelved after FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover objected
was actually advanced when an administrative
structure aimed at overseeing the domestic
intelligence unit was put into operation. Secret
memorandum tending to support Mr. Dean’s charges
were released by the committee Tuesday after it
persuaded the White House to declassify them. The
media has already reported that portions of the
domestic intelligence plans were put into effect
against the Berrigans, the Chicago Seven, the
Panthers and later led to the Watergate and Daniel
EUsberg burglaries.

‘Grotesquely unwise’
“If to him (Mr. Nixon) the bombing of Cambodia is more
important than the functioning of American government, that’s his
decision,” said Sen. Thomas Eagleton (D., Missouri), author of the
amendment. He said such a decision would be “grotesquely unwise.”
Other Senators predicted a Constitutional crisis, but asserted that
Congress will decide when the U.S. will go to war.
After joining the Senate Tuesday in approving the cutoff for U.S.
bombing of Cambodia, the. House turned to consideration of
amendments that would block any new money for military activity.
One proposal would prohibit any new spending for the bombing.
Another would ban use of new spending for any U.S. military activities
in Indochina The vetoed bill applies to use of present and past funds
for bombing
The two new amendments were defeated in the House
Appropriations Committee, although bombing opponents said they
would carry the fight to the House floor. Before the President’s veto
Wednesday, Mr. Mansfield vowed that if Mr. Nixon vetoes the bill, he
will not get the S3.4 billion, because the Senate will not reapprove the
money.

White House political blacklist
The White House kept a list of “political
enemies” consisting of politicians, newsmen,
labor leaders and businessmen so that the
Administration could harass them, John Dean
told investigating Senators Wednesday.
Among a dozen documents containing
information about White House foes which Mr.
Dean submitted, was a June 12, 1972
memorandum to Dean from then presidential
counselor Charles W. Colson. The memo said a
tax audit should be ordered against Harold
Gibbons, a Teamsters Union vice president who
was called an “all-out enemy, a McGovemite.”
Mr. Dean said the enemies list was “extensive and
continually updated” and was part of White
House plans t? p* ftp Internal Revenue Service
(IRS) and othff&gt;ft#Tll agencies against political
Nixon. Mr. Dean put it

Lockwood lot

Bike area built to sfbp thefts

J TheUUAB
Fine Arts Film Committee

A “UB Bike Compound” has been built in a
fenced-in area behind Lockwood Library to reduce a
preponderance of bicycle thefts that has plagued this
campus.
Presently, there is an ample nufnber of bike
racks on campus but complete protection for them
has been lacking. With bicycles becoming an
increasingly popular mode of transportation,
partially due to rising gasoline and car prices,
growing concern for their security has been
expressed by campus bike owners and members of
the UB Bike Club,
The bicycle compound was first proposed by
the Student Association two years ago during the
administration of Ian DeWaal. According to present
SA treasurer Ken Unker, however, “the plans
couldn’t get off the ground until stronger efforts
were made by the present administration.”The SA is
now actively funding the project and campus
security has pledged its support in maintaining a
smoothie operation.
Attendant
The compound will operate Monday through
Friday during the hours of 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. with an
attendant to keep tabs on the bicycles. Cyclists will
be required to fill out two registration cards. One
will be kept on file as the owner’s permanent
registration: the other will be held by the owner and
presented to the attendant when leaving. Observing
that registration will be carefully checked, Mr. linker

Crackdown
However, Mr. Griffin maintained the State
University at Buffalo had “one of the best records in
the nation for preventing bike thefts for the size of
the university.” But as part of the present
crackdown, pamphlets have been distributed to
Campus Security officers detailing the locations of
serial numbers found on different bicycle models.

The only forseeable problem, SA officials feel,
might be a lack of support for the compound by
campus riders. They were concerned because
students may prefer to park their bikes outside
buildings where their classes are instead of at the
centrally located Lockwood lot.
Campus Security is hopeful that the area will be
successful and has advised all bike riders to make use
of it. And as one harried bike rider put it’ “When I
bought my bike 1 never thought I’d be married to it.
At least now I can spend some time away from it
without having to worry.”

Defense Counsel Donald

He claimed that the failure of

�Mothers demand *slow down
to speeding campus trucks

5

A cluster of irate mothers
converged oh the Amherst
Campus’s Bear Ridge Road
entrance last week to do verbal

battle with the drivers of a score
of monstrous, ten-wheel trucks.
For several weeks now, the
trucks have been transporting
massive quantities of soil and
stone to Amherst from the
Niagara Frontier Quarry to
facilitate the laying of four and a
half miles of pavement for the
new campus. Because the drivers
are paid a set rate for each load,
many have been traveling the
largely residentail route at speeds
of up to 75 miles an hour.
Bearing picket signs with the
captions “Let our children play in

No cutbacks expected

Noting that any administrative move will not hinder the station’s
funding. Dr. Gelbaum said: “We certainly don’t propose to curtail the
budget. In some respects it will become more intense.”
According to station manager James Campbell, questions of who
should be responsible for electronic media on campus have been raised
before, “but administrative pressure has recently brought it to a head.”
In the event of a switch, he felt the station could face a dilemma
in the area of staffing. Currently, WBFO is staffed mostly by volunteers
who, Mr. Campbell noted, are strongly committed to the idea of
non-commercial radio, providing an alternative to Buffalo commercial
radio. “A significant change in programming might be unacceptable to
the,” he said, adding that a loss of experienced personnel could be a
major stumbling block to the station’s future operations.
Dr. Gelbaum stressed that everything concerning WBFO is
speculative at this point and that no definite action will be taken until
he receives the position papers on July 31.

passing,” the group arrived at
Amherst vowing to block the
entrance of the new campus until
the drivers agreed to slow down.

Ground shakes
“I shudder

mother to one of several Amherst
policemen that soon arrived on
the scene. “When those goddamn
trucks pass by,” said another,

“

pillow.”

Armed with a petition
addressed to head trucker John
Carredor(i requesting that he
“ensure the safety of the mothers
and children who live on Bear
Ridge Road,” the group
demanded to see him personally.
“We know that these drivers
work on a per tonnage basis,” said
one mother. “We don’t begrudge
them a good living; we don’t ask
that they change their route. We
do ask that they respect the
posted speed limits, the yellow
passing lines and all highway
safety laws.”
“Because they’re contracted on
a ■ per tonnage basis,” reiterated
Mrs. George Mason, one of the
more vocal women, “the more
they bring in the more they get
paid. This is why they break the
law.”
Another was concerned
because there had been a- near

tragedy in the proceeding weeks
when a speeding truck “almost

rammed into a school bus full of
children.”
While major television
networks arrived on the scene and

the trucks continued pouring in
and eM of Amherst, the mothers
waited more than an hour for Mr.
Carredori. Convinced he had
departed just prior to their arrival

and was insensitive to their
complaints, their frustation
mounted. A policeman’s demand
that they leave the area was met
with a barrage of refusals.
Tensions climaxed when a few
of the drivers began taunting the
women by slowing down to a
standstill as they entered the new
campus. Responding at last, a
wave of mothers swept across the
entrance to prevent any other
vehiciles from entering. As soon as
another truck arrived however,
the women retreated to the side
of the road.
Refusing to be ruffled, the
women kept waiting for Mr.
Carredori as the police attempted
to locate him. Approximately two
hours after they had amassed at

Amherst, he finally arrived and
listened to their complaints.

children, Mr. Carredori denied

WBFO faces changes
Concern has mounted over whether WBFO, the University’s
public radio station, will be placed under the direct jurisdiction of the
Instructional Communications Center (ICC).
Sources at WBFO feared that the station’s format may have to be
significantly changed if this shift occurs. Presently, the station is
funded as a department under the Division of Continuing Education.
The decision which will be based on a position paper to be
drafted by both Coninuing Education and ICC rests with Vice President
of Academic Affairs Bernard Gelbaum. Dr. Gelbaum said that as a
result of the decision, programming might change. It is “conceivable”
that a greater emphasis might be placed on “educational programs,” he
added.

Henry Tasca said last year; “The Colonel’s got the
armed forces solidly behind him. That is the story.
Additionally, the military regime received
considerable military aid from the United States, as
well as respectability for its dictatorial regime. In
return, the U.S. was allowed to maintain a military
base in Greece. That military base is the major
American (and NATO) stronghold in the
Mediterranean. However, signs of discontent
surfaced early this year. Students in Athens held
demonstrations, Greece’s booming economy began
to sputter and corruption in the military regime was
reported (although not in the government-controlled
media).
These events set the stage for last month’s
aborted overthrow of the Papadopolous regime. The
proposed coup, according to Newsweek Magazine,
was a “carefully calibrated effort involving the
majority of Greece’s naval units as well as units of
the air force and army.”

The plot called for the navy to seize the island

Constantine Karamanlis, prime minister during the
pre-Papadopolous days, was to have demanded the
resignation of the military regime.
The plan was aborted when a non-commissioned
naval officer brought the details of the proposed
coup to the government. Col. Papadopolous had the
suspected ringleaders arrested and initiated a
full-scale purge of the armed forces. Those arrested
included 35 top-level naval officers and a number of

students joint degrees
in education is hard
come by. On the university
level, students are often required
to follow programs that have
either become outdated and no
longer fill their needs, or are too
strictly defined to allow for any
flexibility. Given the average
course load and its contents, it is.
not difficult to see why students
have become subjects of
frustration and discouragement.
In many cases, dissatisfaction
with one’s courses stems from
their not posing enough of a
challenge. Students are often left
feeling that they are not meeting
their full potential and thus begin
to view their education as
wasteful. In other cases, students,
regardless of the challenge their
present load may pose, merely

Perhaps the latter instance
more appropriately describes the
students currently involved with
the State University at Buffalo’s
Law School’s joint degree
program. An industrious lot, these
students are aiming not only for
their JD degrees, but for their
doctorates in an academic
discipline as well.

Perseverance
“It’s a heavy load,” remarked
Terry DiFillipo, law student and
prospective doctoral candidate in
philosophy, “but it’s the only way
for me.” Mr. DiFillipo reflected
that for him the challenge was a
“necessary”

one, pointing

out

that in addition to pursuing his
law degree and PhD in
philosophy, he is a teaching
atsistfnt and the Graduate
Student Association vice

When questioned on this
unusually cumbersome schedule,
Mr, DiFillipo replied that students
involved in this program do not
have it any easier, but like him,
are determined to see it through.
The program, which was
informally implemented four
years ago, provides for the

Coverups and Blacklists
Last

week we quoted an Opinion
Research public opinion poll which said 41%
of the American people would support
impeachment proceedings against Richard
Nixon if it were shown he had prior
knowledge of the Watergate cover-up.
John Dean has testified that he
personally discussed the Watergate cover-up
plans with President Nixon. According to the
ex-counsel, he discussed executive clemency
for the Watergate defendants, hush money to
guarantee their silence, and ways to block
investigations into the scandal with Mr.
Nixon. Mr. Dean further stated that the
President knew of the cover-up as early as
last September, and lied to the nation in
April when he said he had no first-hand
knowledge of White House involvement; Mr.
Dean said he supplied the President with that
first-hand knowledge.
It must be remembered that Mr. Nixon
has already admitted, in one of his
now-famous retreats, that he ordered parts of
the Watergate investigation curtailed for
reasons of "national security." The Dean
allegations have exposed that ploy as a
convenient rationale. While the ex-counsel's
charges of Presidential involvement are not
the equivalent of hard evidence, the Senate
Committee must determine, with the use of
supporting documents, other testimony and
subpoenaed White House logs, which of his
charges are factually substantiated.
Notwithstanding the White House
campaign of character assassination prior to
his testimony, the Dean track record is a
good one. His leak regarding 35-40 meetings
with the President was first denied, then
confirmed by the White House. His hints of
the 1970 domestic intelligence plans sounded
fantastic, but were later verified. (He testified
in detail how parts of that plan were actually
something established by
put into effect
the media weeks ago.) All this is no reason to
accept his entire testimony as fact, and it is
the Senators' job to weed out the hearsay.
But if a fraction of the charges of Presidential
involvement in the cover-up can be
substantiated, the Senate will have no choice
but to impeach Richard Nixon for
obstruction gf justice.
—

People seem to have tired of the scandal
lately; tired of the endless allegations (and
endless publicity), they rather wish the whole
thing would go away. But such thinking again
ignores the larger questions, not only of the
Nixon incumbency, but of the burgeoning
power of the modern Presidency and the
governmental tactics. And to those who
oppose impeachment because of the

polarization it will tying and because it will
"wreck the system," we ask: Can the
American system look the other way when a
President obstructs justice and still retain a
shred of credibility?
Turning again to the larger questions, we
have already denounced the tactics of
influence peddling (ITT, dairy prices, wheat
deal), judicial tampering (Berrigans, Panthers,
Chicago 7, Ellsberg), wiretaps of government
staff and newsmen, and domestic spying,
including burglary, surveillance and seizure of
mail. The Nixon Administration has sought
to condone many of these police state
tactics, particularly wiretaps, with the
rationale of "national security." One of the
most disturbing revelations of the Dean
testimony, however, has shot that excuse full
of holes and exposed it as "political
security."
Mr. Dean has submitted e White House
list of political enemies of President Nixon,
who were targeted for such harassment
tactics as IRS tax audits. Mr. Dean produced
a Colson memo ordering a tax audit against
Teamsters official Harold Gibbons because he
was "a McGovernite." Conversely; the White
House called off a promising tax prosecution
involving Gov. George Wallace's brother
Gerald after Wallace agreed not to run as a
third-party candidate in 1972.
Others on the enemy list include last
year's ticket of George McGovern and
Sargent Shriver, a host of Democratic
Senators including Kennedy, Muskie and
Fulbright, three pages of journalists including
James Reston, Tom Wicker, Jack Anderson,
Chet Huntley and Daniel Schorr, black
members of the House, businessmen,
celebrities, labor leaders, and just about
anyone else who earned Mr. Nixon's disfavor.
Such blatant misuse of federal
machinery "to screw political opponents" is
astonishing. The preponderance of journalists
on the list lends credence to all past
allegations of a Nixon attack on the free
press, as do instances of tapping newmen's
phones. The preponderance of Democrats
reeks of political tactics American previously
associated with Kremlin purges of
disagreeable Politburo members. Such
totalitarian tactics have no place in a
democracy. We hope the public and the
Senate realize this and will take any steps,
from new legislation to impeachment, to
cleanse our system of these evils. Remember,
if it had not been for a vigorous press, a strict
judge and a few quirks of fate, this would all
be continuing, with an unaware public, as
business as usual in Richard Nixon's White
House.

Stop the Bombing!
Mr. Nixon's veto of the Congressional
bill to cut off funds for the U.S. bombing of
Cambodia vyill, in the opinion of many
Senators, precipitate a Constitutional crisis.
In vetoing the bill, the first antiwar measure
ever to pass both Congressional houses, Mr.
Nixon has forfeited $3.4 billion in
supplemental money for federal agencies to
which the bill is attached.
Mr. Nixon's rationale for the veto
amounts to an updated version of the
domino theory: that without U.S. bombing
Cambodia may turn Communist, in turn
affect the Vietnam peace, in turn undermine
our internaticnal credibility. The hypocricy
of these statements after spending a week
wining and dining the most powerful leader
in the Communist world is evident. But
Congress has made it clear that it does not
intend to acquiesce to continuation of the

Page six. The Spectrum Friday, 29 June 1973
.

senseless human destruction in Cambodia.
Sen. William Fulbright has promised that
Congress will attach the antiwar rider to bill
after bill, until the President is either forced
to sign it or the federal government. This
strategy must succeed. A few months ago,
the legislature might have backed down. But
now that White House credibility and
"clout" have plummeted. Congress has at fast
found the determination to reassert its
constitutional responsibility: to decide when
and where this country will go to war.
Write to your senators, write to your
representatives, and let them know they have
your support in this crucial battle. Mr. Nixon
cannot unilaterally conduct a one-man
campaign of bombing and destruction against
Asians with the tax money of the American
people. In the words of Sen. Fulbright, he
must bend to "the will of the people."

Political sabotage
To the Editor:

Inadvertently, Jon Dande;’ veto of WNYPIRG
has recently come to my attention. 1 am sure this
action has-also come to the attention of The
Spectrum editors. However, the majority of the
student body and the university community are
probably unaware of this action.
’ As in all situations involving political sabotage
(Watergate, Pentagon Papers, etc.), the people are
forced to rely on only one source to give them a
complete and accurate account of what has
occurred. This source has invariably been a free and
active press.
While it is important to know the facts and
circumstances surrounding the issue, it is imperative
that the more subtle implications of this matter be
realized. Jon Dandes’ veto of P1RG brazenly
violating the mandate of the student assembly,
suggests the same kind of pragmatic and totalitarian
philosophy which has characterized the Nixon
administration. That this type of immoral
philosophy has reached the student government of
this University is quite frightening and appalling.
If is now the responsibility of our press not only
to undertake a vigorous and ardent campaign to
expose the facts of the PIRG affair but to make clear
the imminent disaster which results from such
narrowminded and egotistical politics.

This letter is written to express my indignation
over the actions of Jon Dandes concerning PIRG. His
veto is clearly an act of irresponsibility and
unresponsiveness to student wishes. It is quite
obvious that Dandes was leaned on by someone from
the administration. I ask if this is the type of
leadership the students want. Dandes’ actions were
clearly meant to undermine the actions taken by the
Student Association in supporting and funding
PIRG. Because of the timing of his actions, the
Student Association is powerless to take any action
to overrule his veto. By sending our funding proposal
back to the Assembly in September, Dandes has
effectively prevented PIRG’s funding for the fall
semester
a loss of almost $12,000. With this
money, UB would have become a vital, active
member in the state PIRG with the ability and
resources to carry out important projects, take
action on its findings, and organize other schools in
the Western New York area. As it stands, we have
been again reduced to the same position that we held
this year
a struggling student club that has to
devote all its energies to just keeping alive.
The University at Buffalo has already gained
notoriety as the first school in the nation whose
students oppose PIRG. We are convinced that in the
continuing battle, truth, justice, and PIRG will
prevail.

‘Bucking and winging its way around religion

Asst. Arts Editor

vaudevilliam business which often fail, which are
nevertheless integral parts of the mood of the film

how these snowballing mood-inducing production numbers
could have initiated long periods of applause in a stage

performance.

Beyond the sea of acid cynicism, far from the suburbs
of sophistication is a happy, carefree land. It is on the

unabashed outskirts of ostentation, nestled in groves of
gumdrops. Exactly how to find it, very few people know.
But it is there. How does anyone know it exists? Simple.
Just as any other place proclaims its existence, so does this
sheltered land: by its people and products.
Who lives there? Well, Timmy, for one. You know,
Timmy
from the old Louie series. Who else? Well, those
well, probably about half
kids from Family Affair and
the kids on T.V. and in the movies live there.
Who else? Danny Thomas spent a lot of time there,
and Joel Grey and Liza Minnelli. Those paintings of the
kids with the enoromous eyes came from there too. Most
of the world’s dimples arc! made there, and those “Love Is
. ..” cartoons, and well you gettheidea. What is this place?
Surely by now everyone recognizes the celebrated Kingdon
of Cutesy.
It is hard to describe Cutesy to someone who has
never seen it. Although its name implies the contrary,
absolutely nothing in Cutesy is actually cute. Oh, everyone
and everything from Cutesy tries his damnedest to be cute,
but nothing ever is.
-

..

.

Maim that tune
This abandoned, furious, and almost reckless
celebration of the eye makes the contrived charm of the
film somewhat more palatable. Encouraging this wild
mood are the songs of Stephen Schwartz. Some ttye them
are familiar. “Day By Day,” an AM radio favorite with
insipid lyrics, is probably the best known. Some of the
other lyrics are just as insipid. Some aren’t.
The tunes do move along though, and the production
numbers are beautifully staged, with the help of those
sweeping cameras. Songs build to crescendoes which help
us forget how silly some of the words are. It is easy to see

As a whole, the indistinct cast has nice singing voices.
The actor playing Jesus is amply charismatic in his
pseudo-Superman shirt. His betrayer, a bearded and
brown-maned actor, is especially endearing. It would be
nice to see more of this young fellow who almost steals the
show from Jesus.
Bucking and winging its way around religion, Godtpell
will probably be here for a while. If the bumper stickers
that say “Jesus Lives” don’t bother you, and if you like
the ‘Soft-Touch* greeting cards, go see this film now.
Otherwise, you can always catch the late show at the local
drive-in in the kingdom of Cutesy.

Down the drain
Case in point. If an infant just learning to speak points
oonn”, that’s not only
to a toilet bowl and says “NNiixx
true, it’s cute! In fact, it’s damned cute! Now, if the kid’s
father takes a picture of him pointing to the toilet, goes to
work with the photo, and tells all his friends whqt his baby
said, it is no longer really cute. It is still very true and in
fact it may also be funny, but it stopped being cute when
he was searching for the flashcubes.
Get This. If a big movie company hearts about that
man and his kid, and spends millions of dollars to film a
musical based on the kid and his “unbridled and innocent
social commentary” then it is no longer cute or funny. It
may still be true, but what it is more than anything else is
cutesy. And chances are that it comes from the kingdom
of Cutesy.
Cutesy’s latest success story is a little number called
Godspell now playing at the convenient Kensington
theater. It is based on a stage play of the same name which
was based upon the Gospel according to St. Matthew,
which was based on the frolicksome, true-life adventures
of that original superstar, J.C. No, Ed. not Johnny Carson.
Godspell takes some parables from Matthew, mixes
them with some music, and gives them to an unknown
troupe of young actors to schmaltz up. The cast mugs a
lot, does imitations, and piecemeal bits of ancient comedy.
They sing, talk in silly voices, and attempt dialects. It
wants ever so much to be cute. It is cutesy.
—

Needling die threads
For instance, the cast is garbed in ragamuffin clothing.
Now, real people dancing around in grubby clothing may
indeed be cute, but similar antics on film are embarrassing.
Some wardrobe supervisor had to stay up nights thinking
about those supposedly makeshift outfits. “Do you think
another pink patch on the blue jeans would look a touch
too tacky,” he might have asked the director in all
seriousness, “or is it that ‘just-out-of-thc-garbage-can’ look
that we’ve bbeen after?
Is there any way to avoid being cutesy when trying to
be cute in a film? Maybe, but Godspell never finds that
formula. It is clearly and neatly packaged like a box of
undulated staples, and brazenly sold with the affected
charm of a shoe-salesman.
Various churches have tried to take the simple,
innocent teachings of Jesus and bring them to the masses.
In so doing, they employ pomp, ceremony, organs, gowns,
collars and hugger-mugger. Is it any wonder that the simple
message has become perverted? Similarly, by attempting to
deal with the “joy of youth” and the “cute charm of the
gospel,” Godspell ’s product is twisted out of shape.
This film does have a saving grace. Although it was
based on a stage production, Godspell is incredibly visual.
The entire city of New York is its stage, and director David
Greene uses the Big Apple to full advantage. There are
landscapes, seascapes, airscapes, and skylines. Colors and
hopping and dancing keep everything moving. The camera
even zooms in subtly to catch those small pieces of

�RECORDS
Yessongs, Yes (Atlantic)

Ya gottg admit that Rick Wakcman’s cute and like maybe it’d be
fun if your pud did a number on his lips or something like that, besides
he looks a lot like Joni Mitchell after she’s been attacked by the
ferocious Wasp Woman (that’s the one where the broad gets into this
Donnitelli Egg Creme facial kinda stuff and after the mud pack its
“Flight of the Bumble Bee” all over her face) and when he’s
surrounded by all those keyboards he’s like an electric Sabu . ..
“Yes,” it’s a wonder nobody’s wanted to name themselves “No,”
or maybe even “Maybe” but that’s neither here nor where, just like
listening to six complete sices of live’ Yes music. Six sides, the War and
Peace of the record business; and it’s not even
produced by Phil Spector,
what’s goin’ on
Live albums are usually a pain in the butt
cause they usually stink,
‘cept for when their done
by real rock V roll
groups like the Kinks,
Mc5 (small ‘c’ cause they
ain’t done nothin’ for a
lazy I guess),
long time
the Purps or even the
Searchers, and this one
sure lives up to that reputation ‘cause it’s bad.
That’s cause Yes are ‘bad’
ever try and listen to
well, I guess you
somebody read Tristram Shandy or maybe even
get the idea by now, it’s all kinda ponderous
Like if you wanta here “Close to the Edge,” buy the studio record
cause it’s even a worse waste a time, and “Roundabout” just might pass
musically it’s Pepto Bismol cause every time I gotta listen to it, 1
gotta make a trip to number one it, and sometimes even number two it.
You’d think that on six whole sides of record, there’d be
wrong .
ain’t a thing, even
something worth listening to
Wakeman’s excerpts from his Wives of Henry de Eight is dull, like it’s
not up to snuff, can it even compare to Herman Hermits’ “Henry the
Eight” or Charles Laughton’s Henry the Eight, or how ’about the real
Henry the Eight’? No!
But the inside cover paintings are real nice and remind me of all
the Robert Heinlein novels, that kinda kinky Utopian vision of floatin'
away to other worlds and landing, with a cosmic thud like James Blish’s
Spindizzy tales, can you imagine lifting New York City off into space,
well he did, and it’s a great book, ‘Cities in Flight’
The paintings are
almost as good as Gowlik’s Oyster covers, even though these paintings
are much softer in intention, and Gowlik’s are metallically angular just
like the Cult.
Yes, well, not really.

TNT’

Differentfrom the original
by Mitchell Lipchitz

Spectrum Film Reviewer

.Super Fly T.N.T. opens with a cut scene
sequence of retired cocaine hustler Priest (Ron
O’Neal) and his woman (Sheila Frazier) cruising
down a street in Rome in a Lamberguini, to an
armored car carrying weapons somewhere in West
Africa. As Priest makes his way to a private poker
game, the armored car is ambushed and blown up.
What does all this have to do with Super Flyl
This small West African nation (Umbia) is fighting
for its independence and it needs weapons badly. All
they have for capital is uncut diamonds which no
one will accept. It just so happens that attending the
opening card game, besides Priest, is the
representative of the Umbian resistance group,
played by Roscoe Lee Browne. He learns of Priest’s
past escapades and decides he’s the man tp help turn
those diamonds into cash. (Shit! That’s a long way
from Lexington Avenue and “Freddy’s Dead”).
As far as the doctrine of movie sequels goes,
Super Fly T.N.T does not follow through. Instead
of taking the idea of Priest, slick cocaine dealer, and
intensifying it, the studio takes the.same actors, puts
them in their previous roles and uses the appropriate
title, but buys the wrong script and kills the aura
that people remember from the original Super Fly.

Making the scene
Yet the movie has a number of redeeming
qualities. The entire flick is shot on location in Italy

-

-

and SenegaJ, West Africa, creating entertaining and
beautiful background scenery. Ron O’Neal is the
same old Priest: very smooth, very loquacious and
very stoned.
If you can get into watching him groove through
Europe and dig on his quick-witted mind, it’s a lot of
fun. The outfits he wears in different scenes are
great; he’s in the middle of Europe and Africa and he
still looks like he’s all duded up for a night at the
Apollo.
The camera work stands on its own merits tpo.
There’s a couple of interesting ideas in the editing of
the film, especially a nice montage sequence when
Priest is in Africa. It reflects the cultural aspects of
the movie, which tell us and Priest where his heritage
started.
Another really good facet of the movie is the
music, which is all done by Osibisa. I happened to
see this group last summer in Europe. They play a
kind of rock music African style. They’re the perfect
group for this movie because they blend Priest’s
American background with his Africanness and
supply some very good and original sound-tracking.
On the whole, Super Fly T.N. T. doesn’t
compare to Super Fly. But who ever said it had to?
It’s a good entertaining movie with exciting scenes,
glamorous conditions and good music. If you go to
see this one, don’t entirely rely on the original
movie, rather keep it in mind. It’s a different movie
with familiar ideas. Oh yeah, T.N.T. isn’t dynamite,
it’s Priest’s way of saying: “Tain’t Nothing To it.”

Right, Kim! I agree whole heartily. International Heroes just
might be one of of the classics of all time, even though your Love is
Alive and Well is brilliant, and you say you don’t even know who David
Bowie is, but you have these blank periods and you don’t remember
anything, well Kim, could it bbe .
Last tinje I saw Kim Fowley was when he was emcee at a rock ‘n
roll revival in Toronto,
“Yeah, kids, the surprise of the day, there’s
this plane on its way
over the Atlantic
Ocean” so’s there I was
when Kim introduced
the world to the Plastic
Ono Band with Eric
and Klaus and Yoko
and John and Kim tellin’ everybody to light
up their matches and
give’em a warm welcome
“Well, we’re International heroes with
the teenage blues” just
might be in the line of
the year, conceptually speaking it’s a lot better than Aladdin Sane and
Kim’s a lot better than Bowie cause he is thereal David Bowie.
Coming from the histories of the Trashman, Skip and Flip, and
producing everybody, he’s the true rock ‘n’ roll star, the quintessential
punk, and he’s almost ar honest as Wild Man Fischer, but Fischer is
rock ‘n’ roll’s only Moses, “Hey wanna buy an original song for a dime”
now that’s rock V roll, not any of this $20,000 a night Grateful Dead
bullshit.
Kim’s Ip is an example of balanced production, lyrical beauty and
pure form spirit.
International Heroes is already being recorded some place by the
Byrds or at least that’s what I’ve been told and in the age of Kinky
Friedman, the tour possibilities are endless.
See the punk, he is a rock in roll star, he should be famous, they
should suck him off, they should suck him in, they should recognize his
genius. Jeez I like this record and I bought it too

�Sceptics ftryoy Floyd sound collage
by Michael Hudnut
We walk into the Aud Friday
night. I’m feeling skeptical. I’m
afraid I’m expecting too much.
I’m not an easy person to please.
Inside people are standing, finding
seats, playing with balloons and
beach balls. It’s all familar. We’re
a multitude, packed tight as a
corncob. The lights go down low.
I’ve never seen so may pilot lights.
Nick Mason’s drums are
painted with a seascape.
Expansions of amplifiers and
electronic equipment and.speakers

Waters and Wright come out.
They tune for a bit. Their first set
begins, a collage of earlier songs.
John Cage once said he thought
music would reach the level when
consonance could be achieved
with the use of electronics. He
might’ve had the synthesizer in
mind.
They play “Set The Controls
For the Heart Of The Sun”. The
mikes are on echo. Beneath the
banks of multicolored lights

Roger Waters evokes his bass and
voice through waterfalls. He
assaults a gong 360 degrees of
flame. A space suited figure hangs
aloft. The lights are in constant
trajection. I think they’re the care
of Mick Lowe.
“Axes &amp; Comets”
‘‘Careful With That Axe,
Eugene” begins somewhere in
excess of first worldly. Musical
plenty. Rick Wright, only his head
showing above his equipment, is
doing extraordinary things back
there.
There’s an organ and
something much like it, but a
different device, that evades like a
comet. “Echoes.” 1 haven’t heard
the word transversing for awhile.
None of them seem to be setting
the pace. They just fall into step.

like through a tunnel. Music
traffic at rush hour. Intermission.
Somebody yells boogie. People
laugh. The white light seems
strange. It’s time to stretch.
They’re playing “On The Run”.
Pure fever. 1116 action of the
song’s taking place behind the
music. Nick Mason’s drums urge.
There’s the sound of footsteps
running. Meeting a deadline.
Reaches culmination and I picture
engines spitting the exhaust of
ignition that fade and the ill result
is all too evident as the footsteps
spend.

Three black women come on

The Supreme Court’s narrow decision (5-4) to

material will be judged.
As an individual who takes much pleasure in
attending films that display “ultimate sex acts,

“masturbation, excretory functions and lewd

The decision which the Times called “the

Justice Byron White who usually votes with them,
seeks to objectify standards that are inherently
subjective.
Whereas my fellow community members might

Name withheld by request

by Janis Cromer
Whoever heard of women driving cars, smoking
cigarettes, and going to law school? In 1923, these
were preposterous ideas when the National Women’s
Party first proposed an amendment to the
Constitution which would forbid discrimination on
the basis of sex.
Whoever heard of female drill sargeants,
husbands who weren’t the “Breadwinners,” and
married women who preferred their maiden names?
Likewise, these situations are not the popularly
accepted norms now as the Equal Rights
Amendment (ERA) surfaces again into public
attention.
The proposed 27th Amendment, presently
needing ratification by nine states to become law,
simply states: “Equality of rights under the law shall
not be denied or abridged by the United States or by
any state on account of sex.”
On the surface, it appears that this proposal is so
harmless that finding .fault with it would be as
socially unacceptable as calling a Black man “boy”
or eating peas with your knife. However, the
implications of the ERA are (hopefully) more
far-reaching than simply acknowledging the
enfranchisement of women (over fifty years after it
was granted by the 19th amendment).
ERA may mean no longer excluding women
from hazardous occupations such as coalmining, and
banning limits on the number of overtime hours a
woman can work. This does not mean, as some ERA
opponents have claimed, that five-foot-one,
ninety-six pound women would have to work
jackhammers for fifteen hours a day. It does mean
that there will be no law which would restrict a
woman from entering a career in gravedigging if she
wishes. There is nothing innate in women as a class
which keeps them from having the same amount of
stamina as men.
The passage of ERA would relieve husbands of
their legal responsibility to provide financial support
for their wives. Non-support would no longer be
grounds for divorce unless the courts ruled that
women could also be sued for non-support. This
ruling would not result in a surge of destitute women
and waifs. Men don’t support their wives just out of
obedience to a law. Husbands’ support of their wives
is a time-honored custom and (unfortunately) is
going to require a long time to change.
Undoubtedly, ERA provides for many changes.
Yet among these would not be the end of:
sex-segregated toilets, a woman’s (or anyone’s) right
not to work, or the choice to attend a snobbish girls’
private school.
These objections to the proposed amendment
have been repeatedly voiced by ERA’s most
formidable opposition, Phyllis Schlafiy. Bemoaning
the bygone days of chivalry and pedastal placing, she
has formed a “Stop ERA” organization. Mrs.
Schlafiy (she would consider Ms. an insult)
particularly opposes ERA because it might mean an
end to protective legislation for women who (God
forbid!) want to work outside the home.
However, as Michigan Congresswoman Martha
Griffiths has pointed out, protective legislation has
hardly ever protected anyone. Weight-lifting
limitation laws did not apply to hospital or

mercantile workers who were mostly women. And
the federal law barring women from hotel night clerk
jobs did not stop women from scrubbing the hotel
floors as the night clerk checked in guests.
Another area which may change to involve
women more actively is the military. Mrs. Schlafly
contends that women have a right to not be involved
with military operations. If this is true, then men
also have an equal right to not participate. The
reality of the ERA is that by initially making women
eligible for the draft, the pressure for an all-volunteer
army would increase.
The most heated ERA debate has come over the
question of women’s capacity to perform in combat
duty. Women are equally capable to pilot planes and
run naval operations. Technological advancements
such as these are central to the business of running
the military. Tests to measure physical ability could
be legally used to screen out members of both sexes
who are unfit to engage in ground combat. ERA
supporters can justifiably point to the success of
women in the Israeli and North Vietnamese armies.
Mrs. Schlafly, a Roman Catholic mother of six
and a Republican activist who wrote, “A Choice,
Not an Echo” in support of Barry Goldwater’s 1964
presidential bid, is so unyielding in her ERA
opposition that her Archie Bunker polemics become
ludicrous. She accuses ERA supporters of seeking
only to alleviate their own psychological problems of
personal inferiority and contends that one of the
true heroes of the Women’s Liberation Movement is
Clarence Birdseye who devised the frozen food
process. She asks women to praise inventions that
have only reinforced the stereotypes of women as
Betty Crocker cooks, Amy Vanderbilt hostesses and
Beaver Cleaver mothers.
There is another ERA opposition which is just
damaging as Mrs. Schlafly, even if not as
reactionary. One Harvard professor has argued that
passage of ERA would produce more unwanted side
effects than sound solutions to discrimination
problems. Hie suggests increased use of the equal
protection clause of the Fourteenth Amendment and
specific legislative proposals to remedy specific
incidents of discrimination.This critic fails to realize
that individual remedies for specific women’s issues
will be slow in coming out of male-dominated
legislatures.
More importantly, the Equal Rights
Amendment should be regarded as a long-overdue
correction to the UJS. Constitution. It has been no
mere oversight on the part of the founding fathers
(weren’t there any founding mothers?) and present
day legislators that the Constitution and federal laws
state that all men are created equal. The Equal
Rights Amendment simply and at last replaces the
word “men” with “people.”

as

Women, including Mrs. Schlafly, need not fear
passage of the ERA. For if the general amendment is
passed, and the chances for ratification are looking
dimmer every day, court battles will still have to be
continually waged to gain sex discrimination-free
practices in all social and legal realsm. Thus, the
Equal Rights Amendment is neither the “liberated”
woman’s cure-all for sexual inequities nor is it the
housewives’ horror which will take Max Factor,
Drano and EDS out of her life.

�EOF prospects intentionally
perform poorly, claims report
by Lenore Tunkd
Spectrum Staff Writer

Intentional poor performance by high school
students in order to gain admission to the
Educational Opportunities Program has been alleged
by a University investigating committee.
Presently approximately 1290 students are
enrolled in the statewide EOF program at the State
University at Buffalo whose guidelines require
eligible students to be both educationally and
economically disadvantaged. The committee’s
findings disclosed that the requirements for EOP
“apparently induce, among some high school
students, intentional performance under capacity in
order to ‘quality’ academically for the program.”
However, according to Emmitt Lyons, interim
director of EOP, students eligible for the program
did not purposely perform poorly in high school and
on various tests for acceptance into the program. He
further stressed that as a result of misinformation
given by guidance counselors in the high* schools,
students eligible for EOP were informed they were
ineligible based on their academic standing. No grade mess-ups

Lyons stated; “You are not going to tell me that
someone who is doing B work will suddenly mess up
to be considered educationally disadvantaged.” He
remarked that the high school grades of those
students currently enrolled in the program did not
suddenly deteriorate for acceptance into the EOF.
Recommendations for the improvement of EOF
have been" submitted to President Ketter. The
suggestions made by the advisory committee include
the amending of the eligibility requirements for EOF
students.
One proposed change would be to allow up to
20% of the students accepted to EOF to be solely
economically disadvantaged, and not require that
they also be educationally disadvantaged.
Furthermore, the committee suggested that special
funds from the University of Buffalo’s endowment
should be utilized to begin a program related to EOF
if Albany disapproves the initial suggestion. The new.
program would aid only the financially
disadvantaged student.

committee’s findings, “EOP students are not
expected to score well on them. In fact, they are
selected in part specifically because they do poorly
on these tests.”
However, Mr. Lyons explained that these tests
were not suited for the disadvantaged student, and
that “more culture-free tests” were required. In
cooperation with the Learning Center, and the EOP,
new diagnostic examinations which are based on
available material better suited for the
socio-economic background of the disadvantaged
student are being developed.
Research is currently underway to determine
the performance rating of EOP students. According
to a study of Fall 1971 enrollment, 17% of a sample
of EOP students did not complete any courses. To
reduce non-performance by EOP students, EOP
administration officials decided to cut the second
installment of financial aid for those delinquent
students.
Counselor aid
In addition, counselors better acquainted with
the special problems of the disadvantaged student
have attempted to aid and encourage the students,
said Mr. Lyons. The committee suggested the
adoption of a new policy, “concentrating counseling
efforts on students in their first two years,” thereby

promoting, “subsequent independent

judgment in

students.”

Formerly EOF students were channeled into
popular fields which had low employment potential,
said Mr. Lyons. Currently, extensive counseling had
aided students in choosing more job-oriented fields.
•Presently, over 27% of EOF students have declared
majors in Health Sciences, Engineering, Natural

Sciences and Mathematics.
In addition, the median cumulative grade point
average for students in the EOF was disclosed to be
3.00 as compared to 3.08 for non-EOP students.
Therefore, the report states these factors of
“opportunity, personal motivation, remedial help
available (through the Learning Center),
encouragement and support from program staff and
University faculty and stimulation from students
with stronger learning backgrounds has brought
average EOF grade performances at a post-freshman
level nearly equal to non-EOP.
•Culture-free’ tests
The advances made by the program since it was

admission guidelines required students to undergo instituted as the EPIS (Experimental Program in
interviews and standardized tests to determine their Independent Study) in 1968, were applauded by the

Such examinations are valuable in establishing the continued success of the program is dependent upon

The House this week passed a bill to restore
most of the money President Nixon cut from health

to be vetoed by the President, would boost Mr.
Nixon’s budget for the Departments of Labor and
Health, Education and Welfare by $1.2 billion. The
House action would save Office of Economic

local community action agencies, which Mr. Nixon
had planned to close.

from his fear of going to jail because of homosexual

month of May. There were seven arrests, six of
outsiders and one student, other than vehicle and

Highest court rules
on out-of-state tuition

State universities cannot charge
higher tuition to students who
originally come from outside the
state without giving them a
chance to prove that they have
become legal residents, the
Supreme Court ruled last week.
The 6 to 3 decision did not
address the larger issue of whether
public colleges can have a double
standard on tuition, with much
higher charges for students whose
parents live and pay taxes in
another state. However, Justice
Potter Stewart, writing for the
court majority, indicated strongly
that the Court would uphold the
practice of higher out-of-state
tuitions if it comes before the
court in another case.
“We fully recognize,” Mr.
Stewart wrote, “that a state has a
legitimate interest in protecting
and preserving the quality of its
colleges and universities and the
right of its bona fide residents to
attend such institutions on a
preferential tuition basis.”

Connecticut resident and an
unmarried student who applied
from her home in Ohio and then
moved to Connecticut. Both
plaintiffs have Connecticut
drivers’ licenses, have their cars
registerd in the state and are
registered to vote there. For the
last year, they have been required
to pay $625 a semester, compared
with the $175 for state residents.

Increased tax burden
“Standards of due process
require that the state allow such
an individual the opportunity to
present evidence showing that he
is a bonafide resident entitled to
in-state rates,” ruled the court
majority.
Dissenting, Justice William
Rehnquist, joined by Chief Justice
Burger and Justice William 0.
Douglas, predicted that weakening
the Connecticut definition of
nonresident students would
increase the tax burden there. Mr.
Rehnquist wrote: ‘To the extent
that today’s decision requires
students with no previous
A permanent ‘non’
The Supreme Court prohibited connection with the state of
the system used by the University Connecticut to be admitted to

Justice Stewart said.

by John A. Fink
Spectrum Staff Writer

The 1974-1975 budget for the State University
was completed this week by
administrative officials in anticipation of a meeting
with SUNY’s Central Office staff in Albany on June
at Buffalo
28.

This is the initial stage in a vast series of
presentations to various committees before the
budget is approved and passed.
Edward Doty, vice president for Operations and
Systems, explained the complex process of the
budget’s formation, growth and revisions. Mr. Doty
could not reveal the exact figures but he explained

the various increases that were worked into it.
He said the increase requests can be divided into
three major areas:
1) An increase in student aid, especially on the
graduate level, is being sought because of diminishing
federal support.
2) Increases in staffing of the Health Sciences
faculty, particularly the medical and dental schools,
were petitioned because a accreditation reports
stating that the student-faculty ratio was much too
high.
3)

Additional operating funds for the opening
of new buildings on the new North Campus in
Amherst.
Discussions in Albany
The committee which composed Buffalo’s
budget request arrived in Albany June 27 for a day
of discussion with SUNY’s Central staff. Those
committee members making the trip were: President
Robert L. Ketter; Albert Somit, Executive Vice
President; Charles M. Fogel, Assistant Executive Vice
President; Mr. Doty; Bernard Gelbaum, vice
president for Academic Affairs; F. Carter Pannell,
Vice President, Health Sciences; and John D. Telfer,
Vice President Facilities Planning.
SUNY officials, particularly G. Bruce Dearing,
vice chancellor for Academic Programs and Harry K.
Spindler, vice chancellor for Finance, Management
and Business, have already received and read the
budget presentation and will discuss specific portions
of it with the Buffalo representatives. For example,
residence hall costs or salaries of faculty members
will be compared with those at other SUNY units.

At the completion of these discussions,
members of the Central Staff will evaluate the
budget and the Chancellor will determine a “target
budget" for this University. This figure is the upper
limit which SUNY will support and endorse and is
based upon the requests of the other campuses and
the total amount of funds that will be available in
1974-1975.

Target budget
When this total figure is announced, Buffalo
officials will have to reconstruct their own budget
within the parameters of the “target budget.”
The revised budget will then be sent back to
Central Staff in Albany for further review and then
sent to the Division of the Budget.
Early in the fall semester, the Buffalo
committee will return to Albany and again present
their budget to members of SUNY Central Staff.
Budget examiners will conduct a more thorough
investigation, to be preceded by a visit to this
campus in August, to see how last year’s budget was
handled. When the examiners complete their hearing,
they will make any additional adjustments they
deem appropriate and then submit it to the
legislature as part of the Governor’s Executive
Budget.

Legislative study
The budget will be formally proposed to the
legislature by the Governor in early January. It will
then be studied by the Senate Ways and Means
Committee and the Senate Finance Committee.
After both of these bodies agree on further changes,
the State Legislature will vote on the Executive
Budget, sometime prior to March 31.
The 4 973-1974 University Budget was
approximately $70 million from a total SUNY
budget of $600 million. However, with the addition
of research grants, student aid from the federal
government, and grants from the UB Foundation,
the total expenditure rate was raised from the
original $70 million to $110 million.
“The State of New York puts a very high
premium on higher education and we are lucky to be
living here,” commented Mr. Doty. “It was certainly
late in getting into the business of public education,
but it has certainly made up for its tardiness.”

post-arrest procedure in
Cattaraugus County jail. Last

week, Federal District Court

Judge John Curtin told Charles
B. Hill, Cattaraugus County

Sheriff, that it was neither
ethical nor legal to forcibly cut
the hair of arrested suspects.
James R. Hauser brought the
case to court, claiming that it

was the practice in Cattaraugus
County to shear all persons
who could not raise their bail
and were therefore, detained
at the jail. He maintained that
this scissor-happiness extended
even to those accused of mere
traffic violations. The case was
dropped when Sheriff Hill
agreed to discontinue his
barbering business.

Buffalo basketball recriuting has finally begun with the arrival of
Mike Jones. Jones, a 6-6Vi 200 pound center-forward from Akron,
Ohio, averaged
16 points and 16 rebounds in earning
honorable-mention for All-State honors. Leo Richardson, in his first
year as head coach for the Bulls, hopes that Jones can help fill the void
left by the graduation of big Curt Blackmore and Jim Tribble on (he
front line. The Jones family is not unfamiliar with Buffalo sports.
Mike’s cousin, Rovell Jones (’71), was c. football tackle for the Bulls.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Brutality, protests and arrests
invade Attica courtroom here
by Steve Strahs
City Editor

Charges
of state harassment of
defendants, police violence, and unlawful
arrests abounded this week during the initial
phase of the trial of the Attica defendants in
the Buffalo State Supreme Court.
The hearing was the scene of bursts of
pandemonium for the second day in a row
Wednesday, as spectators were marched out of the
court chambers led by heavily-armed Tactical Patrol
Unit officers and sheriff’s deputies.
Proceedings were halted when Justice Carman F.
Ball ordered the court room cleared after more than
100 hundred spectators erupted into applause at
defense claims that Judge Ball was unable to control
the court, and demands that he be removed from the
case. Chanting young people calling for “hands-off”
the Attica defendants were then herded down a
flight of stairs to the revolving doors of the building.
From here they left one at a time while being
surveyed by a band of apparently frustrated police.
Minutes later the trial resumed after defense
personnel and another batch of spectators were
allowed into the court by submitting to an intensive
security check. Donald L. Jelinck, coordinator of the
Attica Defense Committee, refused to be searched,
claiming harassment to be the reason for the
stringent security measures.

It's 8:00 Saturday and Alan has a date
with Mindy. He picks up the phone in a
determined effort to obtain two quaaludes
for the night. After four or five dead ends
he becomes visibly nervous. His hopes of
spending the night with her rest on getting
those two pUls, he thinks. Fortunately the

No college student, unless he's been

Although most Saturday night lude

introduced into this country in 1965, the
first non-barbiturate depressant was
manufactured under five brand names
including Quaalude and Sopor.

Quaalude use, which has become
incredibly popular in the last 18 months, is
now peaking in many college communities
across the nation. According to drug
officials in most U.S. cities, quaaludes have
become the “fad drug” on the streets, third
only to marijuana and alcohol. Patrons like
the tingy, relaxed euphoria produced by
the drug. Like alcohol, quaaludes lower
one’s inhibitions and can make the user
hyper-talkative. Many people like to take
them for going to parties, bars or other
social situations where they feel more
friendly and uninhibited towards others
and find meeting and relating to people
easier.

with any other drug, moderation seems to
be the key. And like Alan in the
introduction, many suitors like quaaludes
because they make one feel like touching
people
and generally lower sexual
inhibitions.
According to medical experts, however,
the drug can be highly addictive and an
overdose can be fatal. While there are few
statistics in this area, there is no doubt that
continual use leads to an addiction from

withdraw. Also, while moV users get very

Several weeks ago, the Faculty-Student

board contracts would probably be increased by
$45. According to Edward Doty, vice president for
Operations and Systems, soaring food costs had
mandated “$42 and $48 increases” for the respective

cafeteria had become the primary source of income.
The fact that all these operations belong to the
same enterprise lends validity to IRC’s allegations
that profits from Goodyear are utilized in offsetting
other losses while dorm residents are being shafted.
Mr. Becker's recent assessment that the number
of students purchasing Board contracts had declined
from 1500 to 1275 to 1100 in three semesters,
supports the contention of many that prices were
frozen because Food Service was simply unable to
risk further reductions in the number of contracts.
Originally, the major thrust of arguments in
favor of a price increase was that it had been
necessitated by soaring food costs. Vet, recent
statements by administrators that Food Service had
been compelled to cut back on certain expensive
items “to offset losses from stealing effectively

In slating it is his "hope and plan to get student

Doly is actually saying that if the amount of
pilferage remains the same, the blame for raising the
price of food contracts may lie with the students.

Whether it can be pinpointed statistically that

other remains to be seen. According to Mr. Becker,
approximate amounts of pilferage can be ascertained
by taking inventories of silverware, plates and certain
food items.

No grades in this ‘town of colleges’
by Amy Dunkin
Campus Editor

Editor's note: In keeping with the recent
interest in the lives of students arouttd the
world. The Spectrum’s traveling campus
editor, Amy Dunkin, who is presently
exploring Europe, filed this report on
academic evaluation and student life at the
prestigious Oxford University.

OXFORD, England
Oxford has no
grades per se, or at least no system of
“continuous assessment.” Students must
take several important sets of exams at the
end of certain terms which are used toward
degree requirements. Exams, incidentally,
are given in a special building and students
dress up in black suits with white bowties,
black shoes and black gowns to take them.
Students work for three years to receive
a BA degree in their area of specialization.
However, since a BA at Oxford is
equivalent to an MA at any of the smaller
British universities, Oxford grads merely
pay 25 pounds at the end of their three
-

years to change their BA’s into MA's (a
400-year old tradition). Degrees come in
several classes and are determined by both
exam marks and courses. Usually a
first-class MA student will go on to post
graduate studies and become a
“professional academic.” Grading is
actually irrelevant if someone holds an
Oxford degree. ‘The grading system is not
a rat race because students aren't thinking,
I've got to beat those blokes’,” explained
one student.

Town of colleges’
Only fairly recently, obtaining a degree
from Oxford has become difficult. In the
1920’s, men attended because their fathers
were alumni and could afford it or because
they “played games.” Now you must work
hard or else “get the Ijpot early on.”
Today, about six candidate’s apply for each
available place. Oxford still requires
knowledge of Latin or Greek.
Oxford is still a “town of colleges” as

while still in school, the students take an

Speaking of student self-government in

student organizations play a
very
important role in the life of every higher
learning institution in the country.
Through their representatives on the
academic council of the institute or
university, in all public organizations, and
in special educational commissions (which
exist for every year and department),
students participate in the solution of
practically all problems of school life.
These problems include: enrollment and
expulsion, job placement, distribution of
stipends, curricula, etc.

�Black Studies

Departmental status gained
Tfie Black Studies Program last week was given
departmental status after President Robert Ketter
approved a recommendation calling for its entrance
into the Faculty of Social Sciences and
Administration

in the running of the University

Student
Association has been received
favorably by both administrative
and bookstore personnel.
Responding to allegations that
“one of the biggest and most
unfortunate problems facing the
bookstore was its image,” General
Manager of the Bookstore Tom
Moore
said

The report stated that one of
the largest problems facing the
bookstore is the ordering of
textbooks. Admitting that in
recent years there has been a
decline in the number of textbook
orders, Mr. Moore felt many
professors
cannot fault
the

bookstore.

Faculty support needed
Agreeing with the report’s
suggestion that textbook orders
should be submitted by the
department rather than by the
individual instructors, Mr. Moore

said delays result when large
textbook orders are submitted on
short notice. However, he added,
more faculty patronage and
cooperation is needed to insure
the success of this plan.
Turning to thefts in the
bookstore, Mr. Moore noted that

shoplifting.” He said the number

of checkouts would be decreased
from six to four and placed more
strategically throughout the store.
As a further innovation, the
service desk will be moved from
the balcony to a one foot level
elevation platform to give staff “a
better overall picture of the

store.” Bookshelves will also be
raised to approximately 54 inches

to further hamper shoplifting.
Stressing the need for mobility,
Mr. Moore said the present

fixtures would become moveable
through the use of devices called
“casters.” These devices would
enable merchandise to be
from one part of the store to
another, and hopefully increase
sales.
Mr. Moore continued that
employee theft is difficult to
constantly
control because
changing shifts make it impossible
to maintain strict security. Store
policy is strict in dismissing any
employee involved in'lhe theft of
store merchandise, he said.

Markup needed
In their report, SA found the
school supply department to be

They
recommended a decrease in the
markup price of certain items.
However, as Mr. Moore explained,
the actual margin of profit in the
supply department is minimal as
these profits offset losses in other
areas. In addition, increased sales
must accompany decreased prices
to insure some profit. As a
convenience store, Mr. Moore
said, the bookstore has neither the
space nor the funds to compete
with larger department stores who
can afford to undersell many of
the supplies offered.

out
that the
Mr. Barbour pointed
Administration has been very cooperative in helping
the program gain departmental status. He noted that
while hard questions were raised concerning the
program, adminstrators for the most part favored its
gaining departmental status.
The soon-to-be department has already
developed a series of courses dealing with Africa,
Afro-American and the Caribbean. A committee is
currently in the process of nominating a new
chairperson to head the department.
Looking to
last semester, Mr. Barbour noted that 400-500
students were enrolled in Black Studies courses,
about 10 per cent of whom were white. Noting this,
faculty member Lillian Williams said she would like
to see more white students in the program “since it
is they who need to be made more aware of black
culture. Black students already recognize that there
is a black culture,
she added.

The decision gives Black Studies a permanence’
in the University that will enable it “to be
competitive and hold quality faculty members who
might otherwise not be interested in associating
themselves with something so uncertain as a
program,” according to acting director Warren
Barbour.
He said that until now Black Studies has had to
rely on a part-time faculty consisting primarily of
graduate students. With departmental status, Black
Studies will begin to hire full-time faculty members
from outside the University, he said.

Mr. Barbour continued that this step will enable
Black Studies “to move on in such areas as
developing research, setting up relationships with
other universities that have Black Studies, and
investigating work being done in Black studies
internationally.”

Consider these facts:

cover-up plot, according to a recent poll by
the Opinion
Corporation.
Twenty-three
per
nearly
cent
felt he knew in advance about
one-quarter
the actual bugging and break-in one year ago.
A Gallup poll in early June said
two-thirds of those surveyed believed Mr.
Nixon had prior knowledge of either the
bugging or the cover-up.
Now comes the clincher: 50% of those
surveyed by Opinion Research favored
impeachment proceedings against Mr. Nixon
if it was established he had prior knowledge
of both the break-in and the cover-up. And
41% said they would support impeachment
proceedings if it developed that Mr. Nixon
only knew of the cover-up itself.
While public opinion polls are less than
perfect,
they
nevertheless provide an
approximate indication of the public mood.
And those who
say
Watergate and
impeachment are media issues should be
quieted by one look at those sobering
statistics. The Clifford plan for Mr. Nixon's
resignation which we advocated will simply
not
materialize. The politically-minded
citizens on Capitol Hill seem to have no
stomach for the long and divisive process of
impeachment. And yet, nearly half the

While virtually every politician in
Washington privately concedes Mr. Nixon

As for hard evidence, the testimony of
Joh Dean, postponed till next week because
of the Brezhnev visit, should provide some
interesting
insights into Presidential
involvement ill the cover-up. Even then, will
anything be done to remove the man who
attained his office by clearly subverting the
1972 election? When American voters learn
soon after an election of criminal activity by
the party in power six months before the
election, do they have any recourse?
They do. A national referendum should
be declared by Congress to determine if it is
the will of the people to add an amendment
to the Constitution providing that, under
certain conditions, a Presidential election
could be invalidated and rerun. To be
enacted, this amendment would require a
by the
Congressional vote, supported
referendum. This suggestion, by historian
Vincent Wilson Jr., would enable each
member of Congress to be "reasonably sure
that he had sufficient support from his
constituents to give his support to the
amendment."
If the results of the referendum were
negative, action would stop right there. If it

My “crime’ was that, as a member of UB-SDS and

organize on campus against one of UB’s most
notorious racist professors John P Halstead of
the History Dept. after Pres. Ketter suspended
me from UB for 2 years and barred me from
setting foot on the campus. Last year, while
passing out leaflets in Norton Union, 1 was
arrested by campus cops for “trespassing and

I once again challenge the cowards who hide

Till MY HOST I ALREADY MIL VIRY MUCH AT HOMI.

�by lay Boyar
A ssistant Artt Ed itlor

A film is a film is a film. It is not a play, a book, a
radio show or a magazine article. Audio-visual experiences
on screen are what makes a movie.
Over the years, the parctice of converting properties
from other genres to films has flourished. Today, it is very
rare that a seriously conceived cinematic offering is not
founded, in some way, on something else. A very real lack
of original characters and plots in the movies is a fact of
life. Economically, the principle is sound. If everyone liked
Sleuth as a play, maybe even more folks will pay to see it
as a movie. If a film is made of Valley of the Dolls, it has a
guaranteed audience of Jacquiline Susann fans. Wince.
When everything is based on something else,
comparisons are almost demanded. If the project being
adapted is one known in relatively small circles, then the
problem of comparing it to the film is small. When a Louis
L’Amour western or a sci-fi story like Make Room, Make
Room is transmuted to celluloid, nobody stops to compare
it to the original because almost nobody has seen or cares
to see the original.
That’s a different story
Wheq the adaptation is of a well-known play by a
prestigious author, then that’s a house of another contour.
Hmmm. .
The house in question is A Doll's House
originally a play by 19th century Norwegian dramatist
Henrik Insen. It brings up the question of how faithful an
adaptation of a previously existing work should be.
drastically different
Two
closely related but
considerations are unearthed by this question. First of all,
there is the case of a new director drastically altering a
long-existing play when producing it in play form. An
ex{iple would be taking Oedipus Rex and changing the
dialogue, the scenes, the setting, and the theme of the
origianl to create a play far different from what the
playwright initially intended.
In cases like this, what is gained by the process? Why
not simply write a new play to develop more fully one’s
new ideas? Why blatantly exploit an “old master” when it
would be more courageous and satisfying to do something
new? Tom Stoppard took advantage of the existing play,
Hamlet to create the new, brilliant production
Rbsencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead. He did not
exploit Shakespeare as much as he used the Bard’s work as
a springboard to new notions.
When a play is produced, the playwright’s words and
.

\

vision of the production can not be ignored. If they seem
drastically opposed to the director’s aims, he sould select
another play. And of course, in the ease of absolutely
brilliant directors, there will always be exceptions.
The secoiid consideration uncovered is the case of
adapting a work from one genre to another. When a book
is turned into a movie, it is obvious from the start that
incredible liberties must be taken with the original work.
No one walks into a movie theater expecting to see each
page of the book flashed up on the screen in sequence.
If a film is made from a book, then the adapted work
is clearly something other than the original. Sure, it is
reasonable to expect a similar theme and some of the same
old characters, but strict adherence is not so important.
Once again, a film ‘by its very nature' is and should be
something different from a play or a book.
When director Patrick Garland set about to adapt
Ibsen’s A Doll’s House, he apparently did not realize just
where his responsibilities to Ibsen and his medium began
and ended. He felt free enough to subtly alter the theme,
but he did not seem to realize that it was a ‘film’ that he
was creating. A Doll’s House is probably the downright
talkiest movie in recent history.

A dull house

From beginning to end, there is almost nothing to
look at. Characters greet, speak to, shout at, whisper to,
laugh about, and babble over each other. Practically noting
mitigates these tediously filmed scenes of Homo sapiens
standing around in conversation. Christopher Hampton,
who wrote the screen-play, and his director should have
given their audience something of interest to view.
The many and glorious effects and scenes that can be
filmed and not presented on stage, are among the strongest
arguments to convert a play to a movie in the first place.
Woven into the fabric of the film should have been those
expected visual surprises. If this would have neant a longer
movie, then so be it. If not some cutting of dialogue might
have been in order.
Scenes that certainly could have stood the cutting
were the early exchanges. Those incredibly fast successions
of entrances become unintentionally comical. In the space
of a few minutes, a doctor, a nanny, a banker, a
moneylender, a long lost friend, and even a small flock of
babbling children enter the “doll house” through various
doors. On stage, this is probably exciting. On film it is
absurd. It gives rise to an almost unending series of
repetitious explanations. Shades of Ozzie and Harriet !
In the respects, the screenplay fails. Still, Ibsen’s

words coupled with the fine performances of the actors
make for a partially enjoyable filnf. The plot deals with a
woman, Nora, who is kept like a little play doll by her
husband Tovald. As the couple meet and face a potential
crisis in their lives, the basic shallowness of the relationship
is spotlighted. Basic, irrenconcilable natures of husband
and wife permit the marriage to go no further. Nora
decides it is time that she became a person.
At the heart of this drama is what is probably at the
center of the Women’s Liberation flap. An essential need
of people to be regarded as people is the fundamental
message. As long as others are viewed as playthings,
puppies, extensions of one’s self, wind-up toys, dolls,
puppets, or petit-fours then relationships with them are
trival and troubled.
Claire Bloom is Nora. Bloom exhibits a great range of
emotional poses in portraying the initially delicate and
eventually iron Nora. Cold, treacherous lighting helps her
to age abruptly, almost unbelieveably. Her transformation
is surrealist if anything, but gripping all the same.
Nailed chauvinism
Nora’s husband, Tovald, is played

by Anthony
Hopkins. Stuffy and ultimately egoistic, this master of the
house is beautifully created by Hopkins. Hopkins breathes
life Into Ibsen’s character by coordinating a patronizing
voice and a mock-imposing body. Fully respectable and
enormously proud, Tovald is entirely a creature of his
times. Because of everyting that he has become, he is
totally unprepared to accept his wife as an equal. He is
sympathy-evoking, and the real tragic character of the
film.
Sprinkled among the members of the cast are some
names reinforced by solid, believable
prestigious
performances. Sir Ralph Richardson plays the dying Dr.
Rank, Dame Edith Evans is an ancient nanny, Denholm
Elliot is powerful as a moneylender, and Anna Massay
plays his old love.

Dark and separate, an enormous scene of revelation
does much to save the talky movie from itself by the
power of words in the mouths of Bloom and Hopkins. In
all, the film is quite beautiful; it could have been
staggeringly gorgeous.
It will indeed be interesting to see what Jane Fonda
does with the version of A Doll’s House that she has made;
it is intended for release within the year. Let us hope she
does not go' overboard. The world may not be ready tor
the sight of 1 Dlh century Nora brazenly broiling her
bandeau.

A printmaker of some national and international
repute, Secunda is an avid experimenter in the
technical aspects of this medium. The brochure
accompanying the exhibit gives some reasons for his
renown: “Noted for his painterly expressionism, his
innovative techniques in printmaking reflect the
sensuous use of pigment and tactile structure of his
paintings.” True enough. The prints show a great
enjoyment of the manipulation of the materials.
The brochure continues: “Secunda has pushed

lithographic plates.” Okay, let’s study this statement
in light of the prints in the show.
First off, some of this methodology is not all
that startling. But this is a minor point in
comparison to the artist’s usage of the methods.
Basically, what Secunda does in his work is to

extend the unusual technical side of his work until it
becomes, to the artist, the primary concern of each
print.

Overworked

It is here that Secunda runs into trouble. How
much can an artist rely on his technical facility,
especially at the expense of the overall effect of the
final proudct? As a good deal of Secunda’s work
demonstrates, the burden technique is asked to bear
may simply be too much. Somewhere along the line,
process and idea must be integrated into a
meaningful whole.
Individual works may best illustrate the problem
here. Probably the most disappointing prints in the
show are those which, it is sad to say, come close to
plagiarism of other artists’ imagery for the sake of
technical tricks. “Windy Day,” a concoction of
spattered swipes and washes, can be nothing other
than a remake of some of the prints of Sam Francis.
What is more unfortunate is that the edge-oriented
compositional format is rather poorly handled, and
the colors, curiously brash yet flat, are quite dead,
especially if compared with Francis’ delicacy of hue.

“Gang” wherein figures of men coalesce bubbling
and splattering out of the splotches, and exhibit a
rather humorous and frenetic movement. Here the

technique is necessary to the image and enriches
instead of overpowering it.

Overload
SecUnda produces both realistic and abstract
prints. In both types, those that fail have the
underlying problem of overemphasis of process. A
new or interesting technique, no matter how unusual
or exciting, cannot be wedged into an uncooperative
and ill-fitting object-image. The object merely
excuse for shallow
becomes a meaningless
showmanship.

In abstraction, technique can be extremely
important. Much recent painting puts a great deal of
stock in process. Yet successful examples of such
work result when the inherent possibilities of a
process,

In “Swiss Mountain” and “Night Castle" he slaps
around the inks and mediums and produces some
luscious trails of resist patterns which finally suggest

Our Weekly Reader Transcends Beatles heritage

Sweetwater by Laurence Yep, Harper and Row, 1973

It’s not a book, like Dune, that is based on the total creation of
another world, nor is it really based on the direction civilization will
take in the future. It is not too strong in its invention of new life
forms, though it is very strong in detailing ways of life. In fact, most of
the science-fiction of this SF novel derives from good old Earth ways.
Even this is done in a fairly undeveloped manner. A young boy
narrates the lifestyle and changes of his aquatic-transport society in a
distant planet’s flooded city. He often forgets to somehow mention
how on Earth (or wherever) some of the machines, inventions, etc. in
use reached his planet, were developed there, and how they operated
in or survived the flooding. He does not neglect to drop hints
concerning the history of his planet, but they are enticing hints whose
gaps are never filled.
The book could have spent a great deal more time in explaining its
raison d’etre, but from the first, we sense it’s not the type of world
which is so unusual and interesting that it would warrant such an
effort in that direction. There are thousands of loopholes but just a
couple of hundred more loops would have been satisfactory.
Understanding that Sweetwater is neither historically complete
nor innovative in designing life different from Earth’s, we have an
interesting point to observe: the book is still successful, captivating,
and unique. Science fiction is only the backdrop for a story of
families, hardships, communities, and growth. Were there a section in
the library for it, this book would be found under the category
“human.”
The main plot is really that of a boy who loves music so much
that hesacrifices his respect and his city in order to learn to play. This
aspect triumphs as the plot largely because the boy so often shows
himself as a very sensitive person, that he achieves a lifelike
atmosphere. As narrator, scholarship is the excuse given him for
knowing and explaining much more than is likely for a thirteen year
old boy, yet his feelings are real and pervasive, and his language is
often a lapse into prose-poetry.
By his narration, he creates a lively vision of his blind younger
sister," and a somewhat more stilted view of his parents. Many
community members, and expecially members of the opposing
mainland community, were seen one-dimensionally. In the latter case,
the mainlanders were only cliches flying about in aircars while
snapping photos.
It was unclear whether it was the author or the narrator who was
seeing so narrowly. These views might be necessary to delineate the
boy’s range of vision. And through the signpost to a very well-develped
character is the feeling of seeing through his eyes, you will find a
personality almost as full when there is indecision between the voice of
the author and the narrator.
The creature who taught the boy to play flute, and the creature’s
race, were sketchily described in the biological sense but abundantly
expressed in character by their conversations. They also stay within
the realm of human characteristics, and are rather like doting
grandfathers. The range of human attitude is large, and Laurence Yep
has a gift for creating the characters he likes.
An abundance of sea life is spoken of, and the ways of life in a
half-flooded city are explored in detail. It is reminiscent of a pioneer
story retold by an artist. Julia Noonan’s few illustrations come close to
capturing the character of the scenes and people of the story. It is
understatedly amazing that in his first novel Mr. Yep has been able to
create people who are substantial enough to have a personality to be
captured.
Mr. Yep is, incidentally, a graduate student at SUNY Buffalo. His
book has been recommended for ages 10 up; I consider it well-put that
no limit has been stated for the “up.” The poetry of language, delicacy
of emotion, the honest-to-goodness people and the “plot that you
would probably never think of were you to write a book” combine to
form a truly unique and sensitive story.

together.
Lennon was, and is, one of the
all-time great voices in rock and
roll. From the bootleg Washington
concert film to the Madison
Square Garden benefit, the sheer
tonal quality of Lennon’s pipes
has been electrifying. And
McCartney, with a rainbow of
tone colors in his throat, was
excellent, too
even Little
Richard loved his version of
“Long Tall Sally.”
But George was never a great
lead singer, although he had the
kind of voice that blended in
harmony beautifully. Predictably,
his solo ventures have featured
great harmonies, but weak leads.
Harrison may be perpetuating his
problem by singing so much of his
material in his highest vocal
ranges, as if he were trying to be
Jerry Garcia. But unlike the Dead,
luckily, he saves all that sliding
around for his guitar work.
George’s lyrics are becoming
increasingly limited in their
subject matter. Out of the eleven
songs on Material Workd, nine are
paeans to God. Interestingly, the
theological specifics now seem to
be exclusively those of Krishna, in
contrast
to
the religious
smorgasbord of All Things Must
Pass, which referred to every
godhead and messiah side of
Zoroastrianism. Although
Harrison’s lines are fairly good for
what they are, the Beatles’ lyrical
inventiveness, broad range, and
unpredictability are missed.
Finally, McCartney’s uncanny
sense of melody was comparable
to that of Richard Rodgers or
George Gershwin. John and
George are both excellent
composers as well, and the force

of the three of them throwing
melodies around at one another
surpasses the potential of George
alone.
Well there’s
the bad
news.. .but here’s the good news.
The high spots on his album
are comparable to anything that’s
come out of Apple Records.
‘Don’t Let Me Wait Too Loi«,”
for instance, is a devilishly simple
gem, and a nearly perfect example
of the Harrison brand of soft hard
rock. My only complaint is that,
true to its title, it’s a little too
short.
The current single release,
“Give Me Love,” has an
irresistable appeal that should
make it do well in the charts,
although I’m secretly hoping that

friend Billy Preston’s release will
be the one to dethrone Paul and
Linda. Any way it turns out, the

Oh, and by the way, speaking
of the Beatles.. .as if you haven’t
been hearing enough about them
thanks to various new and old
recordings, rumors, and reports, as
well as
tidal waves of
Beatlenostalgia both in print and
over the airwaves. 1 almost hate to
say this-not because it’s been
unfair all along to compare
George to the Beatles (its
inevitability supercedes its
unfairness) but because even that
magic word “Beatles” can be a
victim of overkill. Anyway, the
point is that the most Beatlesque
cut on George’s album, ‘Try
Some Buy Some,” also happens to
be the best.
Although the rest of the album
was produced by Harrison alone,
‘Try Some” was co-produced
with Phil Spector. Just like in the
old Phillies Records days, Spector
sure does get that beat across,
simultaneously coming up with an
orchestral arrangement and mix
that is fantastic. Some of the
string lines are doubled by a guitar
played tremola and the effect is
ingenious. (Don’t go into
Roseland and try to order a fried
tremolo what it is, is the way a
string is plucked continuously and
rapidly, like a bouzouki or a
balalaika. And don’t go into the
Polish Village restaurant and try
to order either of them, either.)

The use of a soprano chorus,
which helped Phil to ruin ‘The
Long and Winding Road” against
McCartney’s own wishes, is
effective here because it is mixed
so quietly that is sounds like the
higher overtones of the orchestra.
The song’s production is full of
nifty tricks like those, and the
song itself is real good, too. Just
like the good old days.
The production of the whole
album, as a matter of fact, is
excellent. Every last detail in the
arrangement and the recording
process comes out with absolute
precision.
Nicky Hopkins’ piano work is
leaned on heavily at crucial
points, and is always blessed with
a sense of rightness. George’s lead

talent

can

never

be

overestimated, and it is blessed
with a sense of elegant simplicity.
Like the Parthenon. (I knew I
could come up with a comparison
that has nothing to do with the
you-know-who’s if I tried real
hard!)
Other odd notes: "Who Can
See It” is in 4/4 time, but the
verses begin with one bar each of
3/4, 2/4, 3/8, and 2/4. “(!),” so to
speak. . .1 would’ve like to have
seen George explain that one to
Ringo. One of the pop hymns,
“Living in the Material World,”
runs into a stripper-music ending
as a joke. I’d like to be there when
George explains that to Sri
Krishna. The liner photo features
the musicians at a dignified but
lavish banquet in the middle of a
mansion lawn, playing “Before”
to Beggar’s Banquet’s “After.”
Ringo gentlemanly pours a glass
of wine for himself, as he sits on
both sides of Jim Horn. And who
explained that to Jim Horn?
And one final loose end: yes,
that line in George’s single really
is “keep
me
free from
birth”.. .undoubtedly George and
Patty’s final break with Roman
Catholicism in the
aforementioned concentration on

Hinduism.
In conclusion, the album is

totally predictable, and almost
totally admirable and delightful.
To hell with all the Beatle
comparisons. . .you’ll like it.

feel thwarted by SASU’s,dominance over the

Furthermore, SASU is laboring under the
notion that only it is qualified to deal with

The unfortunate situation which has
developed over theNYPIRG proposal has brought
into the limelight a major problem concerning the
basic structure of the Student Assembly. Long a
target of snide remarks and laughable situations,
this Spring the Assembly has finally made strides
towards becoming a viable organization, acting
more as a responsible-student voice on many
issues, and becoming a vitally important part of
Student Association, for the first time since its
conception^
Despite this, the problem which developed in
the May 16 meeting concerning PIRG’s fee
increase was approved by a vote of 25—7. Yet just
two weeks earlier, a similar proposal was solidly
defeated. Upon seeing the results of the May 16th
vote, I investigated the number of proxy votes
present at the meeting. Of the thirty-two (32)
people who voted on the P1RG proposal, fourteen
(14) were proxies, a number too large to ignore
(44%). In this case, a proposal which would have
had a substantial impact on the students next
year, while setting an important precedent in the
allocation of student monies, was sent through an
Assembly which hasjuost likely unrepresentative
of many student interest.
For this reason, the Assembly was unable to
give sure representation of student opinion on the
matter and now P1RG will go before the students
in the form of a referendum. Obviously there was
no other alternative, and now, the issue may be
settled once and for all.
Yet the problem of the proxy vote still
remains. Therefore, in the Fall, I will propose the
following steps be taken to eliminate the
situation.
A) The reactivation of the Assembly rules to
be up-dated in the first Assembly meeting.
B) An addition to the rules stating that no
assemblyman may pass his vole to any proxy,
except a designated alternate. A designated
alternate will be one person selected from the
Assemblyman’s interest group whose name will be
turned in with the Assemblyman’s petition. Any
other person who attempts to vote in place of an
Assemblyman except the designated alternate will
be ruled invalid.
This may not substantially reduce the number
of proxies voting in the Assembly, but it will
make sure that every voting member of the
Assembly represents a specific interest and will
prevent the arbitrary passage of assembly votes as
if they were pieces of candy.

This brings to mind the question: How
representative is SASU? Its delegates are not
elected as they will be in the Assembly, but
are

by each campus student

handpicked

government president. The Student Assembly

YOU PROMISED YOU WOULDN'T MENTION THATI'

This role has instead been bestowed upon
the newly-created Student Assembly which
unlike SASU will be recognized by Central
Administration as the official organization
through which students will participate in
SUNY governance.
The Student Assembly has been termed
everything from an “Uncle Tom Student
Senate” to a “legal fiction.” Without even
having gotten under way, it has been the
target of much attack and disparagement
from staunch supports of SASU.
At the last general SASU membership
conference, delegates could be heard accusing
the Student Assembly of being a tool of
Central Administration and a device that will
be used by Chancellor Boyer to draw student
support away from SASU. Perceiving SASU
as the more representative of student
concerns of the two bodies, the delegates
vowed they would not let it be made
subordinate to the Assembly.
Striking in these judgments, however, is
that a great bulk of the students lashing out
at the Assembly for the most part knew very
little about the new body. Many were
unaware of how the Assembly and SASU
would differ. They knew only what they had
been told
that the Student Assembly was
merely a puppet of Central Administration
and Board of Trustees and the purpose
behind its creation was to outflank SASU.
A major criticism levied against the
Assembly was that it could serve only in an
advisory capacity and not directly participate
in the formulation of SUNY policy. To get
around this and thus insure its clout in
Albany, SASU has asked the student
governments at each of its member schools to
run only SASU delegates as representatives to
the Assembly. This, they feel, will in fact
make the two organizations one and the same
and thereby undermine SUNY Central’s
original intention of making the two bodies
separate and distinct from one another.
Judging from these strategies, it is clear
that SASU will stop at nothing to prevent its
becoming a mere second-rate organization.
Acting out of what it believes is the interest
of SUNY students, SASU is asserting its
self-professed supremacy by going ahead and

Therefore, to successfully improve and develop both
realms, (teaching and research), it suggested the
deelopment of independent reward systems. Such teaching
reward system has been established by SUNY Chancellor
Ernest
Boyar in the form of two awards: The
Distinguished Teaching Professor, and the Chancellor's
Award for Excellence in Teaching.
The awards were established in the hope that a new
accent would be placed on successful teaching, and not
solely research. As stated in the award descriptions: “Were
this done, it would enable faculty members to concentrate
on teaching (including curricular reform) without fear of
losing promotions because of limited publications or
artistic production."

The awards are available to all undergraduate teachers

the more prestigious, as it offers tenure and a salary

goes into effect immediately upon application for welfare, is to
prevent tax money from being spent to maintain a person at a level

private income. Persons who cannot explain satisfactorily how they
will pay rents or mortgages more than $20 above the welfare scale or

Bookstore leaves dentistry
Freshman students in the School of Dentistry will no longer
purchase dental kits through University Bookstore. Amidst charges of
overpricing and profit-making. Bookstore Manager Tom Moore
announced he had “pulled out” of the dental business. The Dental
Student Association is presently considering several proposals for
selling dental kits to freshman at reduced costs. Of these, it appears
that the most favorable setup would be a cooperative to be “run by
DSA in conjunction with the administration,” according to Tom
Coleman, DSA representative. “We’re all ready to go,” Mr. Coleman
said, “but we must go through the President’s office before we go any
farther.” Additionally, because there appears to be a lack of personnel
within the dental school itself, discussions have taken place with
Sub-Board I, Inc. to acquire additional staff and services. A further
problem is the acquisition of adequate space for the new dental store.
Mr. Coleman was hopeful of securing space in Capen Hall, that was
forrfierly used, and said the entire matter would be resolved within a
month.

New GSA Research Council
offers funds for grad projects
The decline of federal support for graduate
fellowships and research grants has become more
acute in the last year.
Government backing of fellowships at this
university has fallen from an average of 158
fellowships per year to zero, reported MacAllister
Hull, Dean of the Graduate School, in his annual
report. In addition, training grants are being phased
out so that the graduate school will lose about fifty
grants per year for the next four years. The graduate
school has lost over $600,000 dollars in outside

needs. Each proposal is to be reviewed by a majority
of the GSA research council composed of graduate
students from all fields of study.
Mr. Greenwood explained that all the proposals
are in competition with each other, “Theoretically,
he said, “all the grants could be given for proposals
from one department, if those proposals clearly
warranted receiving the grants.” However, the
Research Council hopes to award grants to a

fellowships and traineeships since 1^70.
In light of these grim statistics, the Graduate
Student Association (GSA) has organized a program
which will offer some financial support to graduate

The GSA is currently seeking graduate students
to join the Research Council to review proposals. Mr.
Greenwood said, "We'd like to have the review

the number of members, the more expertise the
Council will be able to employ in awarding the
grants.”

However, Ms. Korner explained
that setting hiring goals is not the

are restrictive and unlawful. They

she continued, “Goals can be

�Grad students revise
grievance procedure
The Graduate Faculty pasted
revisions to the year-old grievance
procedures for graduate students
at their annual meeting last
month. According to Alan Miller,
Graduate Student Association
(GSA) president, the revisions are
aimed at “streamlining and
providing for things we didn’t
think of before” in a generally
successful grievance procedure.
John' Greenwood, former GSA

vice-president for Student Affairs
of the GSA and a co-author of
both the original procedure and
the revisions, measured that
success in several ways; the SUN Y
Faculty Senate used State
University at Buffalo plan as a
model in its proposal for all New
York State universities.
The
Middle States
Accredidation Team applauded
and an
the procedure,
undergraduate grievance plan was
drawn up along the same lines and
passed by the Division of
Undergraduate Studies Policy
Committee.

Few cases
“Another tribute to the success
of the guidelines is the small
number of cases that actually
required hearings,” explained Mr.
Greenwood. Sixteen cases were
heard, and of these, three reached
the Graduate School Level, the
highest level of appeal. “A lot of
students checked out whether
they had a grievance and found
they didn’t, while in some cases
the threat of filing a grievance was
enough to initiate an informal
settlement,” he added.
One of the two main additions
to the procedures states in part
that “principles shall have the
obligation to maintain the
confidentiality of the procedings
and of such materials or
testimony that is presented in
review proceedings.”
This “confidentiality” period
begins when a grievance review is

-•

initiated at a given level and ends
when a decision is formally
reached at that level. According to
Mr. Miller, the revision is designed
“to protect both students and
faculty. We want to stay away
from the spectacular,” he said.

Confidentiality
Mr. Greenwood felt a person
can say anything he likes before
and afterward and that a “breach
of confidentiality” could
adversely affect a case. He
compared the situation to
Watergate where information was
leaked to the press.
An additional clause entitled
“time limits” puts a limit of 14
calendar days on delays at any
stage in the proceedings except in
“extraordinary circumstances.”
Mr. Miller explained this was to
to allow for
give flexibility
vacations, semester breaks, and
other committments of people
involved, while maintaining some
kind of time limit.
Mr. Greenwood experssed the
hope that “as more people
become aware of the proceedures,
they will be more and more
successful. As cases are settled,
they will set precedents that will
allow other cases to be handled
informally.” He also noted that
these guidelines were only for
academic grievances and therefore
only advisory. Under the state
education law, the president of
the" university is the. only
individual with authority, and he
may delegate it as he sees fit.
A final addition to the
grievance procedures states: ‘The
Dean of the GraduateSchool shall
have the obligation to develop
faculty representatives for the
Divisional Panels and to facilitate

arma dllio
Last week we said nobody pays any
lowly armadillo. Not

attention to the
true,

Tucked between Flag Day and
Fathers’ Day the Third Annual
Armadillo Confab and Exposition in
Victoria, Texas attracted .12,000
Armadillo freaks and many of the
nation’s armadilloes. There was a race
for the armadilloes and a "Miss Vacant
Lot” contest for the people. To bring
the two groups together a "simulated
armadillo throw” was held.
|uan de Monte-Longo came in
number one in the armadillo race and
Fred Armstrong, confab chairman,
called him “one swiftce 'dilla” for
breaking all existing records. (We
suspect that no records existed but
|uan did okay anyway.)
Last year’s "Miss Vacant Lot,”
Cindy Hudler (she won for dressing as
an armadillo and dancing around a

vacant lot) passed her crown to Modine
Gunch who claimed to have twirled a
hula hoop on one foot while standing
on one hand. Everyone was too drunk
to deny it.

The winner of the "simulated
armadillo throw" set a new record by 4
inches, but actually the simulated
armadillo was our Armadillo, passed
out from beer, who'came to in mid-air
just in time to curl up into a ball upon
landing and roll the extra 4 inches
but then, who’s counting.
Armstrong organizes the Armadillo
Confab and Exposition as a tribute to a
“creature that just ambles around
doing his thing, never hurting anyone."
Sunday was also the day of the
Mark Twain memorial frog jumping
contest in Hartford, Conn. Blackjack
won with 10 feet covered in 3 jumps,
inches short of the record. (No
armadilloes were entered.)
[Thank you, DPI.]

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Library funds denied again

Guidelines for distributing the
greatly reduced foreign student
tuition waivers among the State
Universities and Colleges will be
released July 1 by the State
University of New York Office of
Finance and Business.
According to SUNY Chancellor
Ernest Boyer, Finance Office
Director Harry Spindler “has been
in intense consultation with the
presidents to determine the least
detrimental means of divvying up
the remaining monies.” In a
related development with
immediate implications, the
SUNY central administration

For the third time in as many years, the
Amherst campus general library, administration and
student activities complex has not been funded by
the state legislature. This action came amidst
repeated assurances from the State University of
New York and legislative representatives that the
project would be included in the state’s
supplemental budget.
“Unfortunately, the singular importance of this
facility to all other construction on the Amherst
campus seems not to have been realized by some
persons,” said President Robert Kctter soon after the
legislature’s adjournment. Having met with Library
Director Eldred Smith soon after the announcement,
Dr. Ketter has already taken steps to ensure
restoration of the funds at the earliest possible date.

Mr. Sancho regarded the issue
as part of a much larger

minimal amount compared to

Sancho stressed.
Insisting his constituency was
being taxed unfairly, Mr. Costigan
brought the issue before the
Assembly Ways and Means
Committee. From there, both
houses pf the legislature ratified
legislation which cut the program
by $4.7 million.
Discussing possible ways of
implemeRtitag the cuts, Mr.
Sancho said they would probably
be divided according to the total
number of foreign students at a
campus or the number of those
foreigners at an institution who
actually apply for waivers. He felt
the latter criteria were more
practical and realistic, because
“out of approximately
1300
foreign students at this University,
only 450 receive waivers.”
Human concerns
Having met with Mr. Spindler
in Albany, Mr. Sancho said they
had discussed “human and
academic concerns” arising from
the budget cuts.
“We’re desperately trying to

�Four-course load maintains

depth and quality of learning
Investigative studies also demonstrated there
was continuing strong faculty and administrative
support for the four-course load at the State
University of New York at Binghamton.
Finally, the report noted that student opinion,
as reflected from the April open forum, “indicates
opposition to a return to the five-course load.”
In offering suggestions for the more extensive
investigation in September, the subcommittee felt
such analyses should include studies of numbers of
formal class hours, recitation or laboratory time and
any additional contact hours. ‘This information
should be assessed by DUS to develop guidelines
with respect to the number of credits for different
kinds of courses in diverse teaching-learning
situations.”

by Larry Kraftowitz
Campus Editor

No evidence has been found by the
Faculty-Senate subcommittee on Baccalaureate
Requirements to support the proposed change from
the four to the five-course load.
A report released May 23 asserted that the
four-course pattern had not resulted in “a significant
decline in the breadth or quality of the BA degree.”
However, because of a “lack of relevant data and
contingencies of time,” the subcommittee urged
each department and program to re-examine its
curriculum beginning September to determine
whether each course was receiving the appropriate
number of credits as “measured against the present
four-credit module.”
“In our opinion,” the memorandum stated, “the
quality of education should always be under active
scrutiny . . [and] we recognize that there is room
for much improvement in the present course-credit
.

pattern.”

Improved learning
According to the report, the four-course load
has led to smaller classes and made available
increased attention to students. Together with a
revision of the curriculum in certain departments,
these conditions have led to “improved learning
conditions.”
This finding contrasted sharply with the
Academic Affairs Council’s belief that the
four-course system had fostered a sharp decline in
the learning process, as measured by lower Graduate
Record Examination scores.
In fact, the subcommittee found the relevance
of GRE scores to the question of undergraduate
excellence “to be so tangential and the results so
multifactored that this argument is invalid.”
Specifically, it quoted the May 2 issue of The
Spectrum in which Educational Testing Service GRE
Program Director Robert Altman warned that
comparisons between scores of students at one
university and the national average are meaningless
and “indicate nothing about the quality of. ..
undergraduate education.”
Additionally, the subcommittee reported that
the low number of graduate fellowships awarded to
State University at Buffalo undergraduates “may not
be significantly lower statistically than those of the
institutions used for comparison.”
‘Insufficient implementation’. ..
While admitting the four-course four-credit
system may have caused some lack of flexibility, the
subcommittee attributed this to “insufficient
implementation by administration when the change
was made . . . and [a] failure to be sufficiently
creative in rethinking curricula.”
The report also lashed out at allegations that
students were receiving only four-fifths of the
education that they did under the five course
system. “All such statements,” it emphasized,
“erroneously assume a 1:1 relationship between
learning and class hours.”

‘Professional expertise’
The report also recommended that “professional
expertise” be sought to gather this additional
evidence. Hopefully, this would “pose questions and
indicate tests which will bear on the quality of
education under the four-course load.”
One such study, the report recommended, might
be a comparative analysis of “two comparable
student groups,” one from a five-course and the
other from a four-course institution, to better
distinguish “the relative student workload under the
two patterns. Finally, the report stressed that the
new evaluation address itself to “the question-of
overall quality of the educational experience at
“piecemeal
SUNY/Buffalo” instead
consideration of specific aspects.”
Although the report was drafted May 23,
President Robert Ketter indicated he still had not
received a copy and would therefore offer no
comment. However, Andrew Holt, associate dean of
the Graduate School, had seen the report and was
extremely critical of the manner in which it was
written.

Misinterpreted charge?
‘They translated the President’s charge to
evaluate the four-course load into an attack on the
four-course system itself,” Dr. Holt maintained.
“And the result of their effortswas along those lines
they concluded the attack could not be
g
sustained.”
unidentified
Faculty-Senate member
An
regarded the subcommittee’s findings as “a slap in
the face of the administration.” He criticized Hayes
Hall for initiating the study without any premises or
preliminary studies. ‘The administration acted
prematurely in attempting to create an atmosphere
of crisis about the four-course load and the burden
of proof is on its shoulders,” he said.
Associate Dean of the Division of
Undergraduate Studies (DUS) Walter Kunz felt the
study had not amply demonstrated whether the
four-course load had sufficiently devalued education.
“If the assumption of that report was that the
Baccalaureate degree has been devalued, we should
have first defined what the Baccalaureate degree
actually is,” Dr. Kunz said.

Placid acceptance and condonement of racial

prejudice seems to be ingrained in the American way
of life. Since the 1954 Supreme Court ruling in

racially segregated schools were inherently unequal,
legislatures, school districts and parents have

Biases fostered
However, it is highly unlikely that the
Education Commissioner or the Board of Regents
intended their decisions to be used to accommodate
truants who refused to attend a school because it
was predominantly populated by a different race.
Provisions for promotional exams are necessary for
those who could not attend or who have studied on
their own because clearly all education does not have
to be transmitted in a classroom. Yet, to allow grade
advancements for students who declined to go to
classes on the basis of the school’s racial make-up is
to support, if not actually promote, racial prejudice.

decision.
The highest tribunal in the country may have
recognized that “separate but equal” educational
facilities are, in fact, never truly equal, but the
majority of Americans have never felt quite so
inclined to accept, let alone implement, the court’s
decision. White America has repeatedly
demonstrated that it is more concerned with
remaining separate than with becoming equal.
Tactics to avoid desegregation have included
state placement of students (white students to one
school, black to another), gerrymandering of school
districts (one ditrict black, one white), and pupil
initiated transfers (whites can be granted changes to
segregated schools, however, transfers to integrated
schools are not provided).
Parental crime
One school board in Virginia in 1964 simply
refused to collect taxes for school funding. All
public schools were closed for five years while
“foundation” schools (for whites only) were
partially funded by the state.
Buffalo is presently condoning similar evasive
tactics on a more limited scale. Anthony Manguso,
Buffalo Corporation Counsel, has decided to drop
efforts to prosecute parents who violated the state
education law by refusing to send their children to
the predominantly black East High School. Even
Richard Slominski, the attorney for the boycotting
parents, admitted that the parents had definitely
transgressed the mandatory attendance law.
Mr. Manguso’s reasoning for discontinuing
prosecution? He said that the twelve parents did
break the state law and that their action was
prompted by a board ruling that prohibited students
from transfering out of the school district. The
parents’ boycott of East High School was clearly
racially motivated. They have attempted to skirt
both the no-transfer policy and the state law in order

to avoid integration.

Commentary

Finals for truants
Joseph Manch, Superintendent of Schools,
objected to the dropping of charges; “It is not a
good example to show other students. I’m concerned
about our responsibility to teach young people
respect for laws.” Yet the issue goes beyond merely
instruction in respectfulness. Mr. Manguso is, by
discontinuing prosecution, setting a precedent for

other parents to ignore desegregation provisions.
Attempts

at

establishing

educational institutions should not be forfeited
simply because a faction of opposing parents choose
to withdraw from the situation and are allowed to go
unreprimanded.
Additionally, Mr. Manguso has not allowed the
prosecution of the parents to be dropped but he has

did not prove the students were not attending
school. However, as Superintendent Manch pointed
out, if the students had been attending school they
would not have needed to request to take final
exams. Certainly this fact alone is a basis on which
to continue investigation of the charges, if not the
prosecution itself. Further research By Mr. Manguso
would most likely result in witnesses who could
testify to

the children’s absence from school.

One more time
When asked, “What if the parents refuse to send
the students to East High School again next year?”
Mr. Manguso’s non-commital and evasive reply was
“We’ll have to come up with something. Maybe start
the prosecutions again.” It should be noted that
prosecution completion and conviction was
distinctly absent from Mr. Manguso’s statement.
Fortunately, the final decision concerning
whether the students will be allowed to take final
exams rests with the Board of Education. And more
fortunately, it appears that the board will prohibit
the administration of exams to the truant students
and may decide to initiate new action against tlu
parents. However, Mr. Manguso was and continues to
be responsible for the prosecution of the boycotting
parents. But rather than aggressively fulfill this
obligation, his actions reflected the “forgive and
forget” white attitude which is so prevalent and so
harmful in racial issues.
In conclusion, Mr. Manguso said: “The parents
have won a battle but lost a war. These kids are the
real losers. They have lost a year of school.”
Granted, the students are definitely suffering the
most from this dispute. But not necessarily because
they missed out on nine months of English
composition, substitute teachers and student council
dances. They have perhaps forfeited changes to
escape from the socializing effects of their parents’
biases, to discover the intricacies of interaction with
something more than a homogenized white clump of
humans and to prove that ‘‘separate but equal” is
not only illegal but unwanted and disadvantageous
for all races.

”

And yet we have had precisely another Vietnam right in
the middle of the all-too-familiar Indochinese landscape.
While closed-eyed Americans are satisfied with our “peace,”
a country is being destroyed. Its name is Cambodia. As in
Vietnam, we have intervened in a war which is none of our
business, which does not threaten our security, and we have
intervened on behalf of the losing side which does not have
the people’s support. It is generally acknowledged that the
Lon Nol regime would have toppled long ago without U.S.
air support, and will probably fall soon anyway. Yet
American planes continue to rain death from the skies on
this helpless country.
And to what end? Can we still believe the myth of
fighting for self-determination of peoples when it has become
clear that this means preventing the choice of Communism at
all costs? Why can we tolerate Communism in Russia and
China, yet are compelled to destroy Indochina before we will
let them choose an alien economic system? Is this selfdetermination? Perhaps it is as Prince Sihanouk says, that
Americans simply do not care about the killing of yellow
people. We have become barbarians in the eyes of the world,
and perhaps in our own eyes as well.

without heroes, our POWs are celebrated. No doubt they

limbs, if they came home at all? And their grief- stricken
families? And those denied amnesty because they refused to
kill for their government? And the Asian people whose lives
have been bombed into daily misery? These are the real
human heroes, the victims of our inhuman government.
-

We applaud the recent actions of the House and Senate in
reasserting their Constitutionally-defined responsibility
regarding where and when this country will go to war. Their
passage of bills to terminate military activity in Cambodia
and Laos was long-awaited, although Mr. Nixon has said he
will continue to bomb Cambodia with or without
Congressional approval. Should he attempt to do so, we will
face a Constitutional crisis of the first order. But just as the
antiwar movement gradually and painfully forced the U.S.
out of Vietnam, our people must now stand united behind
Congress against the mass murder of Cambodians. Write
letters; make your voices heard. It took a decade for
Americans to awake to the horror of Vietnam. Let us not sit
back and let our tax dollars be used for the annihilation of

Cambodia.

smoking ruin, as firemen poked through the rubble
for survivors. A woman whose legs were bleeding
stumps screamed over and over again: “What God?
What God? What God?” Three women had shards of
glass driven into their eyes as the windows at
Nathan’s blew in from the force of the explosion.
The body of Robert Watson, 18, of East Flatbush,
was found with a hole blown through his CUNY
sweatshirt, clutching a single slice of pizza, out of
which he had managed a single bite.
Some of the worst damage was at the New York
Coliseum, where 312 people perished after the
building took a direct hit during the afternoon
session of the Antiques Show. Many smothered
inside, or were burned to death, as fire engines
struggled to get through the traffic. One side of the
Central Park Zoo had been caved in from the impact
of the waterfront explosions, and several lions were
reported roaming the Brambles.
“This is simply another example of the
unspeakable brutality of the Other Side,” the
President said from a bomb shelter in suburban
Maryland. “Their callous disregard for human life is
further evident in this act of historic heartlessness.
But we will not be reduced to a pitiful, helpless
giant. They cannot bomb us into a peace settlement

that would stain our national honor for years to
come.”
In an off-the-record briefing, Ronald
Spokesman, a high White House official, accused the
Other Side of “not playing fair. They had no right
under international law to bomb our cities, or even
to have B-52s. They have never declared war on us.
We have no design on their territory. It is true that
we have dropped more bombs on them than any
natiori has ever dropped upon another. But they are
after all Asians, and they place a different value on
life.”
Even as he spoke, Wave,after wave of B-52s from
the Other Side came roping over the; city. A
spokesman for the Other Side said that they were
only after military targets, to cut off the flow of
supplies to the Americans and theft allies in
Southeast Asia. But as a carpet of bombs took out
the Bush Terminal and the Brooklyn Arm Base, all
of Bay Ridge and Sunset Park, two blocks away,
were turned into flames and rubble. The industrial
plants in Long Island City were destroyed, but so
were Sunnyside and parts of Kew Gardens, Rego
Park and Forest Hills. Another round of bombs
aimed at the George Washington Bridge blew apart
the Cloisters. Brooklyn Heights, Williamsburg,
Cobble Hill and Fort Greene vanished with the
approaches to the Brooklyn Bridge. The Other Side
blamed American anti-aircraft missiles .for the
destruction of the UN and the Metropolitan
Museum, but a Canadian reporter said that sortie
after sortie had been airmed at the buildings.
“As far as losing any sleep over what we’re
doing,” said a pilot for the Other Side, interviewed
at his home base in Cuba, “or how many people we
kill.. .we never see the damage.”

By the end of the first week, New York was in
ruins. There were so many dead that bodies were
being burned in Prospect Park. The hospitals were
sloppy with blood and the screams of the dying. All
subways and buses had stopped running. A few
scattered firemen poked through the nibble of the
Empire State Building, looking for bodies, but all the
water mains had burst and most fires burned through
the night. All radio and TV stations were off the air
and the newspapers had been destroyed.
“Why are they doing this to us?” a woman
yelled hysterically, as she roamed Inwood looking
for her 7-year-old daughter. “Why are they doing
this? What have we ever done to them?”
“Plenty,” someone said. “Plenty.” And looked
around for an air raid shelter, as a tinny
hand-cranked air signal told of another raid.

—Simon

by Jeffrey Wechsler
Spectrum Arts Editor

So what can you say about the Allentown Art
Festival anymore? Just like the southward route
most people take on Delaware Avenue to get there,
the show goes inexorably downhill every year. Why?
The second largest city in New York State closes off
more than five blocks for an annual outdoor art

presentation/competition, has space for 400
exhibitors, offers prizes up to $150 in many
categories as prizes and . . . phhfft . . . nothin’ doin’.
The appeal of Allentown last weekend was
primarily that of being able to walk down a wide
city street cleared of all traffic. It’s a nice friendly
community-type atmosphere that settles over the
area at this event. “Streets for People” and all that.
But the presumptive raisoA d’etre for the whole
thing, the art, keeps getting more and more
incidental, less and less interesting, and just plain
worse.

A good art-producing community isn’t lacking
in Buffalo, though it does often keep its head rather
low. So why do so few artists of merit show up at
Allentown? Well, it may be that a vicious cycle has
set in, engaging a number of gears.
Naturally, one of the evil roots of one gear’s
teeth is money. Allentown is a glittering enticement
for all the schlock-kitsch gift-shop gewgaw hustlers
who see a cheap ground-level aerie for their
hawkings. They move in fast and they move in big,
and this year the excess of enameled, wired, hanging
and bobbing things was nearly smothering.

Flies in the ointment
This harms at two levels. The good, serious,
imaginative craftsmen get lost in the crowd, and
perhaps suffer by association with the others. By
sheer numbers, the hucksters can sour the flavor of
art in the show and may discourage capable
individuals considering entry. And probably worse is
the reaction evoked from many painters, sculptors
and photographers by the dismal neighboring
displays.

To a good proportion of the serious artists, the
event is rapidly approaching a status deserving of the
name, “The Allentown Arts and Crafts Show.” With
pride, professionalism and/or idealism (whether at
times misplaced, exaggerated, or untrue
notwithstanding), they feel that Allentown is simply
no place to present ‘real’ art.
their concerns may lie with the
and/or relevance of the judging. It is
true that a lot of the outdoor summer art shows in
the Buffalo area are notorious for not giving out all
the advertised awards in all the advertised categories,
having obviously incompetent or biased judges

only upon the registered clique of members.

Hey, it’s summer, and what’s the summer for if not riding in your
car with the windows rolled down and munching on a Big Mac
deathburger while the AM radio blares. Except that this summer the
old radio ain’t exactly pumping out the greatest music. And you might
think that it’s because there aren’t any good 45’s around but that’s not
true. I’ve heard a couple of damn good 7 inchers lately, and if they’re
not hits soon I’m gonna rip down some aerials.
Slade’s “Cum on Feel the Noize” (Polydor) has been out for a
while and nobody seems to want to touch it though it’s been numero
uno in England and the band is knockin’ em dead everywhere they go.
It’s probably their most intelligent release yet, a clear answer to all the
snoids that dismiss them as just energy with nothing underneath. “So

American Spring is really Spring which used to be the Honeys.
Two classy females, one of whom is Brian Wilson’s wife and the other
one being her sister Diane. Brian has all but disassociated himself with
the Beach Boys, and he’s devoting most of his time to writing songs for
and producing American Spring. God knows we need girl groups, and
these girls could be the ones to start the ball rolling. Marilyn and Diane
both have nice voices and Brian’s production is flawless. The first
release is entitled “Shyin’ Away,” (Epic) and it’s a conscious attempt
to come up with a summer hit. It’s a song that has to be heard at least
five times to be appreciated and what better place than a car radio to
provide infinite exposure. Light an bouncy, room for singalong, it’s got
everything. Now if only someone will play it
Commander Cody and his Lost Planet Airmen are at it again, with
the Commander taking the lead vocal on the old country classic
“Smoke Smoke Smoke (that Cigarette)” (Paramount). Done up in
“Hot Rod Lincoln” style, it’s a lot of fun to listen to and it’s even got a
message. Bobby Black, Bill Kirchen and Andy Stein all whip out on
pedal steel, guitar and fiddle respectively and the Commander’s voice is
its usual provocative self. The flip, “Rock That Boogie,” is just as good,
with CC pounding theSS’s while Billy C. Farlow does his Gene Vincent
imitation beautifully.
Other goodies lately include Sweet’s followup to “Little Willy,”
(Bell), which should have driven everyone up a wall by now. The
British teen bubblegum faves have come up with a weirdie called
“Blockbuster,” and the siren is better than on Bloodrock's “D O.A.”
Todd Rundgren’s new single from the Wizard A True Star album is
“Sometimes I Don’t Know How To Feel”, (Bearsville) and it’s a real
Charmer with sweet backup vocals that the Philly flash uses so well.
This week’s sure shot on WNIA and mine too. Rock On.

But Allentown is, in general, not guilty of these

NARRATION IN ENGLISH

Lambs among the wolves
Of the successful entries in the crafts category, a
ceramic chess set of original design and fine
workmanship was particularly impressive. Another
good group was the drawings. The most notable of
these were the top-awarded pastel figure study which
was vigorously flashy with whipped-on sparkling
colors, yet avoided prettified tritness, and a small,
carefully selective pencil rendering of houses that
stressed the space between the buildings with
unusual acuity.
The preceding amount of reporting and
comment is more than 1 thought 1 could coax from
this lackluster event. It is unfortunate when an art
event that has potential and, incredibly, business
backing, can be seen slowly fizzling out as far as
quality participation goes. Maybe if it were held
indoors maybe if crafts were in a separate area
maybe if there was more artist input to the
organizers . . . maybe,ad nauseum.
And consider the public. The vast majority of
spectators 1 spoke to concerning the show were
disappointed. (The overall impression 1 got from tinshow was a dull blur.) And recognize the fact that
public turnout seems to be the last remaining thing
that the show has going for it.
Anyhow, something had better change soon or
the Allentown Art Festival will continue its
metaphorical slide down Delaware Avenue until it
qualitatively slips without a ripple beneath the Lake
Erie ooze.

The awarded abstractions gave the peculiar
sensation of -looking all the same, as if one person
had used three different techniques with
approximately the same compositional formula: a
horizontal-tending structure somewhat off center,
with a few diagonal and vertical thrusts moving over
an even or blank background. The deja-vu evoked by
proceeding from picture to picture was frightfully
reminiscent of the effect of the Buffalo Barn School.

As a fri«&amp;d and benefactor of
Bic’s, Barnes is a delight. Peter
Boyle is a diverse actor with a
great deal of flair and talent, and
his flamboyant, self-assured style
is, at times, a welcome comic
relief from Hopper’s serious and
often awkward naivete. Warren
Oates is surprising as the factory
worker who learns how to play
Walter Mitty. Lee Purcell is his
fetching wife who learns how not
to play with Dennis Hopper. And
Janice Rule is Janet Conforto an “actress” friend of Bic from
the past, a woman who knows
how to get what she wants.
But Hopper steals the show
(and the purse). With his gang of
stoned Sioux, the aid of Peter
Boyle, and an enormous amount
of talent, Hopper pulls the movie
out of its depressing theme and
into a frolicksome romp that
makes it fun for all.
Director James Frawley has
created a clockwork orange in Kid

well-timed, and precise, it presents
a very natural fruity look at the
way the West was lost.

RECORDS
The Tin Man Was a Dreamer Nicky Hopkins (Columbia)

Nicky Hopkijjs, as in -the Who_, Kinks, Beatles; Quicksilver, Jeff
Beck, Steve Miller, Rolling Stones. The ace session man whose faceless
talents have been utilized at one time or another by just about every
band in the Schwann catalogue. So here’s his face on an album cover
and no one else’s picture is here except his wife’s, and she looks so
much like him that she could be his sister, but she’s his wife and her
name is Dolly and Nicky wrote a song about her and a whole bunch of
other things too and lo and behold, a Nicky Hopkins album.
Even though it says on it that it’s Mr. Hopkins’ album, it really
doesn’t have that much out front piano on it. Nicky seems most
comfortable when he’s playing around and behind the rest of the
instruments, all those years of backup work having taken their toll, 1
suppose. But the music is pretty good throughout and the songs, all
either written or co-written by Nicky, are pretty decent too.
The record starts off with “Sundown in Mexico” and it’s the only
unaccompanied song on the album. Nicky seems a bit shy playing all by
himself and the melody seems straight out of a soap opera. Great theme
music for The Edge of.Night or maybe Another World. “Waiting for the
Band” is next, and here’s this Jerry Williams guy singing lead, adding a
dose of nondescriptiveness to the tone of the record. Can’t Nicky sing?
Still, it’s a good tune about showing up for a recording date and finding
yourself waiting endless hours for the band to show up. Not as good as
Ray Davies’ “Session Man,” written about Nicky himself, but alright
none the less.
“Edward” is a song Nicky recorded when he was a member of
Quicksilver Messenger Service for a spell. It’s snappy, Nicky shows off
his chops on piano and organ, and Brian Auger could have written this
song. There’s a dippy slide solo by some guy named George O’Hara
who doesn’t play half as well as say, Badfinger’s Pete Ham. If Nicky
knows so many big shots, why did he settle for this washout?
“Dolly” follows and, hey, Nicky’s singing this one! Alright! Not
bad at all. Mister H. Soft love song, syrupy strings, great guitar work by
Mick Taylor (he of the R. Stones), Real Bee Gees sound. Most
keyboard players sing like the Bee Gees. Matthew Fisher did it, so why
not Nicky? The side ends with “Speed On,” with Williams singing again
and this one really reminds me of Todd Rundgren’s “Little Red
Lights.” Same subject matter (cars), same riffing. Another winner.
Side two starts with “The Dreamer,” and it’s too slow and too
dull to make it through the five odd minutes it takes up. “Banana
Anna,” on the other hand, is a scorcher, again a T.R. feel. Bobby Keys
does his usual sax solo and it’s good for about thirty seconds as always.
“Lawyer’s Lament” is another softie, Nicky singing again, more strings,
more nice guitar by Mick Taylor.
“Shout it Out” does Just that, spiffy piano by Nicky once again,
the record ends with “Pig’s Boogie,” which is Just an excuse for being
flash on piano as Beck would say, and it’s short and to the point.
‘Course there was no reason to think that this record wouldn’t
sound good, ‘cause Nicky can play, we all know that. But maybe next
time out, we’ll get a little more Nicky and a little less Williams, O’Haras
and Keys (sounds like a double play combination).

by Walter Simpson
Sometimes called “pineapples,” “guavas”
“rockeyes,” sometimes referred to as
“pellet” or “perforation” bombs, these
weapons are by their own nature
indiscriminate, that is, they necessarily affect
a very large area, and thus cannot be dropped
solely on military targets like bridges, tanks
or trucks. It’s been said that their target is
the will of the people because they have been
designed to maim and cause much suffering
to those within their range but not directly
hit. They’ve been dropped on schools,
hospitals and urban areas where the
concentrations of children, women and
elderly are high. 1 am referring to the
•anti-personnel weapons which the U.S. has
-used extensively in Indochina: they are
designed and produced by Honeywell Inc.
Acting as a representative of the Western
New York Peace Center, and as a participant
in the national campaign against Honeywell, 1
attended
Honeywell’s April 25th
stockholder’s meeting in Minneapolis. I
joined at least 150 people from all around
the country in expressing concern and
opposition to Honeywell’s continued
munition contracting with the Pentagon. This
was my first stockholder’s meeting, and 1
would like to share some of my experiences
or

with you.

—UPI

The Man
he Killed

While we never expected to vote
Honeywell out of the anti-personnel weapon
business, it came as a shock to realize the
overwhelming percentage of shares controlled
by the Board of Directors. A resolution for
Honeywell to cease and desist the design and
production of anti-personnel weapons was
defeated 15,559,000 to 224,775, almost all
of the management’s vote being in their
hands well before the meeting opened its
doors. In the vote for chairman of the board,
the protest candidate (General Thieu) lost to
James Binger, the incumbent decision-maker,
by a vote of 16,000,000-plus to 1500. But,
of course, we didn’t expect to take over the
corporation that easily. For me, it was to be
a learning experience, and 1 was learning.
The meeting lasted through four hours of
our testimony and questioning. Apparently,
James Binger decided (though perhaps the
decision was made by a Honeywell
computer) that four hours was a respectable
time to spend patronizing his detractors:
surely, directing a patient ear to dissenters

must be good for the corporate image.
He was asked about the criteria he and
other directors used in deciding whether or
not to produce any kind of weapon. While
maintaining his courteous and helpful
countenance, he evaded the questioning. Yet
after awhile his answer became clear; the
only criteria he was able to mention were
technological feasibility and the guarantee of
profits. The more chifrch-oriented people in
our group questioned him repeatedly,
searching in vain for moral criteria: they
found none. Asked if Honeywell would
produce overns for human extermination
should Honeywell be able to make them and
have a guaranteed profit from them
he
replied that he already answered that kind of
question; and he had.
As the meeting moved on. 1 learned that
despite the illegality of the weapons and the
war, the Nuremberg principles of shared
responsiblity had little meaning for James
Binger (aside from posing a possible threat in
the unseen and dark corners of his future).
Honeywell accepts no responsibility for the
use to which its anti-personnel are put. Asked
if he knew whether Honeywell bombs were
being dropped in Laos and Cambodia, he
replied that he had “no idea.” The lives of
people are none of his business, while
feasibilities and profits are.
In meeting the Honeywell corporation, 1
was learning about corporate America...and 1
was learning about myself. I am a product of
that America, and simply denying or cursing
it will not extinguish that reality. When I
finally spoke, and shouted and condemned
James Binger and Honeywell, 1 found myself
shaking and afraid. I was deeply angered by
the lie I saw before me. He appeared
well-dressed, polite and decent...in a sense, a
father of the American dream of infinite
well-being and convenience. Yet in fact 1
knew he was at best utterly indifferent to
human life, and at worst a mass murderer of
Nazi dimension
his decisions to fuel the
Pentagon’s huge and varied arsenal being
nothing less than crimes against all humanity.
While angry and trying to get my voice
out, within myself I was struggling to admit
that the tales of my childhood were horrible
lies, that the tales of corporate America as
gracious provider and well-spring of
American worth were dead wrong. This inner
struggle is something that will have to
continue as I grow.

The director general of the United

covered from the 1973 production. “This means that
already at
wheat stocks in the exporting countries
their lowest levels for 20 years
will have to be

felt that the televising of the investigative hearings

that the reputations of innocent people could be
ruined due to a lack of courtroom safeguards against
unsubstantiated testimony. Mr. Agnew’s comments,
the most severe of any Nixon official to date,
pointed to the “incadescent presence” of television,
which he said turned witnesses and senators into
“players on a spotlighted national stage.”

Tucked away in the basement of Norton Union, unnoticed by

extremely limited budget this summer, there are eight staff members
who are conducting workshops in metals, ceramics and leather work.
The metal workshop lasts 3-4 days, costs $2 and covers all the basic

filing, sawing and soldering
needed to be competent in
metalwork and jewelry. The ceramics workshop is free, lasts two days
and covers various pottery techniques. The SI leather workshop lasts
two days and concentrates on belt-making,
“If there’s enough interest, we’ll have a sandal workshop, which
would cost $7.50, since it must pay for itself,” said Mary Robey, the

Administrative practices do not
include the right to board up
buildings at the city’s expense,
said Mr. Whalen, without
authority from the Comptroller’s
office. These run-down structures
become hazards to neighborhood
residents who fear fires spreading
to their own homes.
Need for housing
The Makowski administration
and the Common Council now has
a list of addresses of 336 buildings
to be bid on by June 21. Included
is $411,000 worth of property.
Mr. Whalen assured the Buildings
Committee that sufficient funds
will be made available by the city
for condemnation purposes.
Mayor Makowski is planning to
appoint an assistant corporation
counsel next week to direct his
administration’s effort to uplift
the face of the city. A corps of
college students has already been
assembled to walk through
neighborhoods to identify
hazardous buildings for the
Department of Inspections and
Licenses. There are approximately
2900 vacant structures now in the
city.

The most recent minimum wage proposal,
passed by the House of Representatives on June 6,
provides some long-disputed benefits for household
workers. The measure would extend minimum wage
coverage for the first time to between one-and-a-half
and two million domestic employees.
The initial minimum wage for domestics would
be $1.80 an hour; $2.00 an hour on July 1 of next
year and $2.20 on July 1, 1975. The current basic
minimum wage is $1.60 an hour and that is less than
the poverty level established by the Federal Office of
Management and Budget. However, at present,
domestic workers are paid substantially less than the
minimum wage.
In 1969, 80% of all household workers had an
income of less than $2000 and 57% earned less than
$1000, By 1972 the median annual wage for such
work had risen only slightly to $2072.
No overtime pay
In metropolitan areas, domestic help usually
attracts higher Salaries because there are a greater
number of affluent people seeking household
New York, Wisconsin and
workers. Three states
Massachusetts already have their own minimum wage
laws covering domestic workers.
Yet, household workers are not covered by
medical insurance or workmen’s compensation. They
rarely receive any vacation or holiday pay. Moreover,
even in the minimum wage law amendment,
domestics will continue to be excluded from
overtime pay provisions. Workers who live in the
houses where they work will not be covered under

.

.

domestic help if they are included under the labor
standards law makes minimum wage coverage
impractical. He believes that housewives, who have
no business knowledge, would not be able to
maintain such records. The result, he said, would be
large scale violations of the law.
Several amendments aimed at weakening the
Democratic-sponsored bill were rejected in the
House of Representatives. Seeking to reduce what he
considered the inflationary impact of the measure,
President Nixon had backed a substitute bill which
provided a three-step increase, starting with $ 1.90 an
hour this year, $2.10 a year later, and $2.20 on July
1, 1974. The Nixon-endorsed bill did not include an
extension to domestic workers.

Equal pay for teens
In addition to domestic workers, farm workers
who were covered under the 1968 wage law (only
435,000 who work on the largest farms) will reap
some additional benefits if the House bill passes the

-

the newly passed amendment.
Proponents of minimum wage coverage for
domestics argued that such a bill would reverse the
trend in which over one million workers have left
this sector of the labor market in the last ten years.
A similar bill to amend the minimum wage law to
include domestics was defeated last year.

Household workers excluded?
Although the bill, which passed the House by a
vote of 287 to 130, is expected to also be viewed
favorably in the forthcoming Senate vote, Sen.
Robert Taft, a Republican from Ohio, has sponsored
a substitute bill to again exclude household workers.
He asserted that including domestic workers under
the minimum wage law would not be workable. He
believes that many “marginal” jobs would be lost
because households would no longer be able to
afford help.
A spokeswoman for the National Committee on
Household Employment, which is trying to organize
domestic workers so they can demand rights
collectively, wrote in Ms. Magazine: “I’ve run into
employers who say, ‘But how can 1 pay that [the
minimum wage]?’ 1 sympathize with those people.
But if you didn’t have the price of a car, you
couldn’t talk the dealer down you’d just have to
get along without it. And that’s the way it should be
with household help, too. Maybe if women
employers see it that way, they’ll make more trouble
with their husbands or their own employers, and get
proper pay for themselves and other women.”

Senate. Under the new measure, these farm workers
who now receive $1.30 per hour will get $1 .(SO an
hour upon enactment of the bill; $1.80 oh July 1,
1974; $2.00 a year later, and $2.20 on July 1, 1976.
Extended and heated debate also arose over a
provision in one of the wage law amendments which
would have allowed employers to hire teenage
workers at 80% of the minimum wage for six
months. Rep. John B. Anderson, a Republican from
Illinois, said such a provision was necessary to
overcome the high youth unemployment rate which
is three times the adult rate.

Rep. John Dent (D., Pa ), sponsor of the bill,
said equal pay for equal work is a standard of
American labor and that the so-called “youth
differential” would lead employers to fire youths
when their six-month period of the reduced rate was
completed in order to hire new, cheaper youths. The
youth differential amendment was defeated 215 to
199.

Administration.” SASU, on the other hand, would
concentrate on lobbying and providing services
which were distinct from governance, he said.
However, Mr. Borenstein said that in practice
the Student Assembly and SASU will be one body
since the same delegates would serve on both
organizations. He explained that most student
governments have decided to run their delegates to
SASU for the Assembly. As defined in the Assembly
document, students will elect their representatives
on the basis of one for every 3500 full-time
equivalent students.
Executive committee chosen
In other action, the SASU delegation elected the
following students to the Executive Committee:
Debbie Benson and Tyrone Saunders (SUNY
Buffalo); Larry Summers (SUC Cortland); Charles

Stambaugh (SUATC Alfred); Mark Regan (SUC

Stokem and Steve Gerber (SUNY Albany) and
Sharon Lubitz (SUC Buffalo). Additionally, David
McMorris (SUC Brockport) defeated former SASU
Treasurer Peter Comeau (SUNY Binghamton) by one
vote in a surprise victory.
Addressing the delegation, SUNY Buffalo
Graduate Student Association (GSA) President Alan
Miller noted the importance of having graduate
students involved in SASU and moved that a
graduate student be elected to the Executive
Committee. Although George Haas, the unopposed
graduate school candidate (SUNY Buffalo) did not
receive a majority of the votes needed to win, he was
later appointed by the Executive Committee to
temporarily fill the position until a new election can
take place.

&lt;p&gt;Students at the University at Buffalo launched a new newspaper in December 1950. The &lt;em&gt;Spectrum&lt;/em&gt; succeeded the &lt;em&gt;Bee&lt;/em&gt; (1921-1950) and &lt;em&gt;Argus&lt;/em&gt; (1947-1950). This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum. This award-winning newspaper has been published continuously since 1950, and three times a week it provides news stories and in-depth coverage of campus events and sports.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Funding for the creation of this collection was received from the &lt;a href="http://www.wnylrc.org/"&gt;Western New York Libraries Resources Council&lt;/a&gt; through the &lt;em&gt;Regional Bibliographic Data Bases &lt;/em&gt;and&lt;em&gt; Interlibrary Resources&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sharing Program&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

Assembly action questioned

Dandes rejects $3 fee hike
for funding of WNYPIRG
by Ron Sandberg
Managing Editor
Student Association President
Jon Dandes has returned to the
Student Assembly its motion to
raise the mandatory student
activities fee by $3 to fund the
Western New York Public Interest
Research Group (WNYPIRG).
Contending that the motion
had been “pushed through at the
eleventh hour,” Mr. Dandes
termed the Assembly’s decision to
increase the fee “capricious and
arbitrary.” In an unprecedented
move, Mr. Dandes is asking that
the motion which was brought up
after the Assembly had been in
session for six hours be reviewed,
claiming that half of those who
voted were proxies with vested
interest in WNYPIRG.

feared that a $3 increase would

WNYPIRG defends petition
Responding, Mr. Dandes said
that if a referendum were held in
early September, and the results
favored WNYPIRG, funding could
begin in January. He noted that
even if the Assembly’s motion had
gone through, WNYPIRG would
not have received any funds until
November when the Bursar’s

It took a semester of lobbying,
organizing, letter-writing, waiting
and hoping, but Mitchell Franklin
finally has his reappointment. A
spokesman for the SUNY Board
of Trustees told The Spectrum
that the Trustees decided May 23
to grant the 71-year-old law and
philosophy professor a full-year
waiver of retirement for the
1973—74 academic year.
Dr. Franklin, who is over New

victim of paperwork problems at
the local level and an original
refusal to grant the waiver at the
last Board of Trustees meeting.

granting retirement waivers so the
ruling came as a pleasant surprise

lied in his previous testimony when he claimed to
have purchased heroin from Martin Sostre. This
hearing concerns a writ of habeas corpus which, if
granted, would require the state to release Mr. Sostre
if it failed to grant him a new trial.
Yet Martin Sostre’s case is not merely another
incident of a Buffalo drug raid. The case has
attracted considerable publicity and nationwide
attention. Mr. Sostre and . his supporters claim that
Sostre was framed by police for his radical political
beliefs. As owner of the Afro-Asian Bookstore on
Jefferson Ave., Mr. Sostre sold books and pamphlets
about socialism and black liberation. The Martin
Sostre Defense Committee and Mr. Sostre contend
that after the black rebellion in Buffalo in the
summer of 1967, the police sought to find a
scapegoat for the disturbance and thus, attempted to
“get” Mr. Sostre for his political activity.

and two weeks later Mr. Sostre was arrested on a
falsified drug charge which was not only a more
serious accusation, but also had a greater chance of
resulting in a conviction due to Mr. Sostre’s previous
jail sentence for selling narcotics.

Senate testimony
Three weeks after Mr. Sostre’s arrest, but prior
to his indictment, Buffalo Chief of Police Frank
Felicetta testified in Washington, D.C. at a Senate
Judicial Subcommittee investigating city riots that
Martin Sostre operated a school to teach the
construction and use of Molotov cocktails. He also
said that Mr. Sostre was grossing from $2,000 to
$10,000 a week from illegal drug transactions.
Several of the members of the grand jury which

grtiMendorsed as district councilman

UB

The race for the Democratic nomination for
University District councilman was considered up for
grabs throughout the primary campaign, but voters
in the area apparently failed to take notice last
Monday. William A. Price, a 29-year-old attorney,
and a graduate of the State University of Buffalo and
Columbia University School of Law, overwhelmed
two opponents while capturing a majority of 54% of
the votes cast.
Mr. Price generated his successful primary race
around the need for greater neighborhood
decision-making and a pledge to be a full-time
councilman with a permanent district office. The
final tally saw Mr. Price with 2281, William A.
Smith, a former commissioner of the local Little
League, with 1331, and Pascal V. Mazuca, a

Westinghouse employee, with a total of 656 votes.
“This primary proved that people will respond
to a positive attitude despite the tension surrounding
local issues,” Mr. Price ebulliently declared. The
newly-endorsed candidate plans to present the voters
in November with the same assertiveness and
confidence in the potential for Buffalo to solve long
standing problems that he displayed during the
primary battle.
To oppose Volkert
Though he was the endorsed candidate of the
regular Democratic organization, Mr. Price admitted
that his effort was significantly bolstered by a large
contingent of people working independently of the
Democratic Party. A canvass of Democratic voters.

begun some weeks ago, was undertaken and
completed in all 55 election precincts in the
University District.
Charles C. Volkert, the Republican incumbent,
will be facing Mr. Price in the general election. Mr.
Volkert, a real estate man, the president of a model
agency in Buffalo, and a major shareholder of an
employment agency, has been in office since 1972.
He won the election the previous November by
defeating Henry Stahl, Jr. by 235 votes.
In describing just how far apart his Republican
opponent and he are on prominent issues, Mr. Price
noted that “Volkert represents the banks, real estate
interests, and the Buffalo Evening News, while I
intend to represent neighborhood people, the
element in which Buffalo’s true potential lies.”

To the Editor.

*

■*;,

There have been few projects in the history of Student Association
activity at the University of Buffalo, that have preceded with the
dispatch and enthusiasm that has been at the foundation of the
establishment of the Western New York Public Interest Group.
Immediately following a visit to this campus by Ralph Nader
(Spring 1972) the organization was organized and formed and soon
collected 6400 signatures on a petition calling for its formation, and
indicating a willingness on the part of the signatures to support
financially its existence. Enthusiasm waned with the summer months,
attempts were made to redefine its directions and numerous proposals
concerning its existence were brought forward. It is my belief that we
are now at the crucial point of determining whether WNYPIRG shall
survive as a solid, important fixture on this campus, or if it will base its
future on the uncertainty and unpredictability 6f interpretations of
New York State laws.
I firmly believe in the philosophy that “the purpose of WNYPIRG
is to educate students to the use of research skills and action strategies
to solve problems in the public interest.” It is along this line of
reasoning that I commit myself and this administration to the
perpetuation and functional establishment of the Western New York
Public Interest Research Group. It is my position however, as President
of Student Association, that the action taken by the Student Assembly
at its meeting of 16 May 1973 was an arbitrary and capricious act.
I, therefore, cite Article III, Section 2, Paragraph 8 of the By-Laws
of the Student Association Constitution, “(the President) . . . shall have
the power to send back once, to the Student Assembly, any piece of
legislation passed by that body for repassage.” Be it known that on this
day, 31 May 1973, I send back to the Assembly the following enabling
motion.
“Student Association in the name of the undergraduate student
body, becomes a member of the NYPIRG under terms to be specified
in a formal contract between Student Association and NYPIRG. We r
further move that the Student Association direct the Executive
Committee to formulate this contract with NYPIRG on the basis of the
outline presented at the meeting of Wednesday, 16 May.”
This decision, a source of great personal anguish for me is based on
the following reasons:
a) the decision by the Assembly was reached at the very last
meeting of the Assembly as the very last item of business after six
hours of meeting during finals week. The preponderance of proxy votes
was apparent and leads me to question the validity of the actual vote.
b) It is my firm belief that an understanding such as an increase in
the mandatory fee should be placed before the general student body in
a referendum.

c) It is my position that an increase in fees at this time when we
have fought so hard to keep tuition down is hypocritical.

d) Student Association cannot give WNYPR1G the financial
security it seeks. We do not have the power to authorize use of the
mandatory student fee to pay for a full time professional staff
Sub-Board I, nor the Athletic Department must deal annually with
their programs and then make decisions on staffing.
e) 1 do not accept the fact that the University at Buffalo must bear
the brunt of the financial obligations for an organization that will
benefit other campuses in the area. It is my feeling that we should
obtain firm commitments from other campuses to help financially
before we commit the large amounts of money we are talking about
f) The concession to refund the three dollar fee is one that 1 do not
accept. The burden of collection must be incumbent on WNYPIRG,
not on the students who do not want to pay it.
It is for these reasons that I return this piece of legislation.
May I most emphatically emphasize my support of the WNYPIRG
ideal and philosophy. It would be my hope that we could continue in
support of this ideal by the following proposal:
That WNYPIRG be funded through a voluntary fee in the same

fashion as the Inter-Residence Council.
1 would be most amenable and vociferous in support of this action

raising public awareness and lobbying
one, and the enthusiasm of this campus group has
been admirable. However, SA President Jon Dandes
made the right decision in returning to the Student
Assembly the motion to raise the mandatory fee
from $67 to $70 to fund WNYPIRG passed by that
body amidst too many proxies and dubious
circumstances. The already-expensive fee is slated for
referendum next spring amidst growing feelings of
disenfranchisement among students. It should not be

raised without considerable input from those who
must pay it. The crucial question is: to what extent

would University students benefit from an area
group whose first three letters are WNY. Although
SA has claimed it impossible, we would urge that
they reassess priorities and attempt funding from
within the $67 fee. If not, a student-wide
referendum in September must be held. Although
traditionally marred by small turnout and voter
apathy, this would at least provide some yardstick as
to whether students are willing to part with another
$3 to fund WNYPIRG.

Ruthless Fox

‘Jackal’ rates suspense plus
by Jay Boyar

A ssistant A rts Editor
Back in August of 1962, a clandestine plot by
the infamous “OAS” to kill the late President of
France, Charles de Gaulle, failed. That is about all
the average American may remember about it, if
indeed he recalls that much. A brief news item, a
short commentary, and the entire obscure episode is

forgotten.

Almost. Writer Frederick Forsyth put his
imagination to work. How might this ephemeral
incident

have

come about? What could have
the. several people involved
Hmmmm
So Forsyth wrote his best-selling novel,
The Day of the JackaT, that book is now a
feature-length movie playing at the Boulevard
Cinema.
Edward Fox stars as the Jackal. Before the
film’s final frame flickers, he assumes a myriad of
dazzling identities, ranging from a war-weary
amputee, to a dead baby, to a school teacher to a . . .
maybe that Jackal has a little chameleon blood in
him. These many faces are refreshing, but the
movie’s aim in creating a character like the Jackal
contains some built-in problems.
All we really know about the Jackal is that he is
a mercenary, hired by the OAS to do away with de
Gaulle. He is calculating, cool, and handsome. His
personality is about as human as a type-written
message and as warm as sleet. Running about,
implementing a crafty assassination plan that loojts
much more intricate on film than it really is, the
Jackal is a receding enigma.

...

Jackal-in-the-box
Practically nothing about him is genuinely his
own. This sort of hyper-clever character with no real
essence makes for some shocking and effective
scenes. The problem is to somehow make us care
about a character who lacks an endearing
personality. It is tough.
As the Jackal, Fox (restraint . . . restraint . . .) is

mediocre. Please,
this is no
condemnation of him. While he may be a fine actor,
his role, in spite of all the personality switches, is
basically perfunctory and undemanding. In fact,
although Fox is on camera for most of the picture,
he is nqt exclusively the main character. The
spotlight really belongs to that devious plot and to
one other character, to whom we will get later.
Historical truth is used to great advantage in the
film. It is very important to the flow of our

Gaulle was not killed by a mercenary’s gun in 1962,
or any other time, helps. We know, from the outset,
that the Jackal must fail. At the start, the jig is up.
Since we know a priori that de Gaulle will
emerge unscratched, we are temporarily free of any
moral responsibility or guilt attached to supporting a
murderer. We can root for the Jackal secure in the
knowledge that he can never win. It is not that he is
the underdog or the dark horse; his struggle is not
difficult, it is impossible.
Of course, it may seem that suspense is hard to
come by when the ending is no longer moot, but
through a detached and adventurous concern for the
Jackal, it is maintained. Adding interest to the
fast-paced story is the man who shares the spotlight
with the Jackal: the dowdy police commissioner
who is assigned to capture the Jackal.

domesticated, the small moustachioed comrpissioner
comes across like a European Colombo. Softly and
competently, he goes about his job to tackle the
Jackal. When his fo'olish superiors tell him to do so,
he does. When they abruptly inform him that he is
off the case, he leaves with only a knowing shrug.
Upon orders, he is back again on the trail of the
killer. The character emerges from left field. Little
by little, we see more of his personality and
home-life. Gradually, he comes to be seen as a
nameless little man simply doing a job. He appears to
be just the opposite of the Jackal. Where the Jackal
is handsome, dramatic, slick and flashy, he is portly,
tedious, stuffy and drab.
As we get to know more about this hushed little
man, we want him to win as much as we support the
Jackal. Part of the suspense hinges on our wish to see
him stop the Jackal, instead of someone else doing
so. Also, we wonder, will the commissioner die? Will
the Jackal? Will they destroy each other? Will the
Jackal fail, but get away? The fact that de Gaulle
will survive only eliminates a few of many possible
resolutions. It absolves us of guilt, but it does not

emotions that the story be based on established fact.
In the film, de Gaulle is the rather innocent and
unsuspecting target in an insidious assassination
attempt. All he has done to bring on this merciless
wrath from the radical OAS is to give Algeria back to
the Algerians which, after all, seems fair enough.

The big surprise is that, when the final few
scenes are over, we realize that the commissioner and
the Jackal are mirror images of each other. In all
important and essential matters, they are identical.
Both men work only when paid, neither one will
stop at anything to achieve his end, and both of
them are nameless and faceless agents.
They recognize these qualities in each other and
care about each other. Circumstances make them
enemies, but they are birds of a feather. We know a
little more about the commissioner’s life because
that’s the way the story goes, but this hints that the
Jackal has a life apart from his killing also. Cutting

Killer’s gall
Whether or not de Gaulle was a good man,
whether or not there were valid arguments opposing
his politics, in the scope of the movie, de Gaulle is a
good guy. By no stretch of the imagination does the
film allow us to suspect that he deserves to die by an
assassin’s cruel bullet. The Jackal, however, is cool,
ruthless, and unprincipled.
In spite of this, the sympathies of the audience
lie with the Jackal most of the film. While perhaps
no more than one person in three will admit that
they support the cold-blooded killer, support him we
all do. How is this accomplished?
Well, to begin with, (hat historical fact that de

through the thick walls of their private identities,
stupid bureaucracy and international politics, the
able adversaries meet for a tense tumble.
Perceptive, clever, and ever stirring, the
similarity of the twq opponents makes the film more
than just the adventure story it might have been.
Sure, the lickety-split, slick and tricky action keeps
our eyes open, but it is the theme of similarity that
subtly inhabits our minds.
unimaginative
Notwithstanding
some
camera-work and an annoying tendency to view the
film as only a big-screen version of Mission:
Impossible, The Day of the Jackal makes its point
well and deserves much more than a “hack-suspense”
rating.

To the Editor.
“Student Leaders” triumph again!
The latest sign of irresponsibility in SA office is the WNYPIRG
mess. At the Student Assembly (pronounce: Student Circus) meeting
of May 16, both Dandes and Saleh were there. They saw what was
going on and they knew .damn well that what was going on was wrong.
in their usual manner, they were against motions made at the
meeting to hold a referendum and to restudy the proposal. Only after
Saleh was served a summons to appear before the Student Judiciary did
Dandes and Saleh reconsider the WNYPIRG proposal’s merits and how
it was railroaded through (with their explicit help). Then, after
everyone had gone home and-it was no longer politically dangerous did
Dandes veto it. He is “The President,” you know.

already bulging on this one.

Fed Up

To the Editor.

This letter is intended to make a public record of Jon Dandes’
and state PIRG’s definite intention to contest
that veto in September.
On May 16, 1973 the Student Association passed a motion making
UB a member of New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG).
The executive committee was instructed to formulate a contract with
NYPIRG based on the outline presented at that meeting. Twenty-five
assembly members voted for that motion, five voted against, and one
person abstained. Jon Dandes voted for the motion, yet he terms that
vote an “arbitrary and capricious act.” How are we to have faith in a
Student Association President who condemns his own voting actions?
Jon Dandes vetoed the funding of PIRG because he received
pressure from the administration. Alarmed that a Public Interest
Research Group might become fully equipped to tackle the problems
facing every one of us, (unfair selling practices, discrimination,
inadequate housing, pollution), the administration sent vibrations from
Hayes Hall to the Student Association offices indicating the(r
disapproval of the motion. Intimidated by the voice of the
administration, Mr. Dandes vetoed PIRG’s funding on this campus.
It is imperative that everyone realize the amount of power that
Dandes assumed to make such an outrageous move. The desires of the
student body, his constituency, were voiced in the form of 6,400
signatures and 25 yes votes out of 31 voters in the Student Assembly.
All this was blatantly ignored by Mr, Dandes in order to pacify
President Ketter.
1 can assure this University that Mr. Dandes’ veto will be strongly
opposed by everyone who believes that the will of the majority is
paramount. Mr. Dandes’ action has convinced me and many others
working on PIRG of the crucial need for a group whose sole purpose is
to protect the rights of the people. We are now more determined than
ever to see that PIRG is firmly established at UB.
The only reason that PIRG is not contesting the legality of Dandes’
veto now, is that there is insufficient time to have a hearing before the
deadline for putting a fee raise on the bill. The deadline is June 6 and
one of the judges will be out of town until June 8 making it impossible
to hav? the hearing before the deadline.
Jon Dandes schemingly waited until the students had gone home
for summer vacation before vetoing PiRG’s funding. This indicates his
fear of the students’ reactions. PIRG will simply refresh everyone’s

recent veto of WNYPIRG

.

Counterpoint
,

To the Editor

The concept of Public Interest Research sprang from the idea that
the expertise and know-how in society could at last be used for the
benefit of the powerless sectors of society
those whose control of
their own lives is limited by the manipulations of the powerful. No
longer would big industrial or governmental institutions expect to be
able to do as they please, disregarding the welfare of those affected by
their actions. Public interest research and advocacy places power in the
hands of the powerless by giving them access to the power centres
which have long been the exclusive preserve of the vested interests.
The veto of SUNY at Buffalo membership in the New York Public
Interest Research Group (NYPIRG) by Student Association President
Jon Dandes was made in spite of a mandate expressed overwhelmingly
by a petition of the undergraduate students as well as by a Student
Assembly vote. Over 6400 undergraduates, over 50% of the
undergraduate student body, signed petitions supporting PIRG and the
Student Assembly voted 25 to 5 in favor of making it a reality. Mr.
Dandes’ action serves to underline the need for public interest research
and advocacy to protect the will of the public. Despite a facade of
repeatedly refuted and obviously insincere excuses, the principal reason
for Mr. Dandes' action is the ever increasingly long arm of Hayes Hall
which for several years now has shown itself to address itself to the
demands of institutions rather than the needs of the individuals it
supposedly serves. Mr. Dandes has made himself a tool of this octopus.
The first time the proposal for funding PIRG came to a vote before
the Student Assembly, Mr. Dandes stated that he opposed the motion
merely on the grounds of several legal technicalities. At the time of the
second vote, in which the Assembly approved the contract which Mr.
Dandes has vetoed, Mr. Dandes voted in favor of the contract.
However, as the deadline for enacting the decision of the Student
Assembly approached, indications of opposition to PIRG by the
administration began to increase, and simultaneously Mr. Dandes
became increasingly wavering in his support. At first he apparently
hoped to avoid putting himself in the position of administration lackey
by relying on a ridiculous Student Judiciary case. However, as it
became obvious that this could not succeed, Mr. Dandes received clear
indications that Hayes Hall would insist that he kill the proposal.
Rather than defending the right of students to control their own
futures, Mr. Dandes knuckled under to the Administration, suddenly
offering a multitude of reasons for opposing a proposal for which he
had voted two weeks earlier.
Mr. Dandes is therefore just one of many public officials who put
the interests of a few powerful men above the will of the majority of
their constituency It is to protect ourselves against exactly this cynical
disregard for justice that we form a Public Interest Research Group
to find out why our institutions fail us and to do something to correct
it. Support P1RG when it returns in the fall, and help make the
institutions responsive. Yes, it is possible.

memory in September.
The present executive committee (with a few exceptions) has
succeeded in destroying any illusions that I had about a representative,
fair student government on this campus. Led by Jon Dandes, an
unscrupulous few will continue to put power way above justice on their
list of priorities.
I now leave UB, thankful that I need not spend another day under
the repressive rule of Jon Dandes. I strongly urge all of you, who are
not as fortunate, to use your mouths, your brains, your time and your
energy to shout about what you believe to be just. And don’t stop
shouting till they hear you.

University and its students.
The organization’s operating
budget has never been in
jeopardy, said
Anthony F.
Vice
Lorenzetti,
Assistant
President for Student Affairs. But
it was necessary to make “an
arbitrary administrative decision”
regarding funding for practices
which bore no relevance to the
University.

One of these programs is the
Big Brother program operated by
CAC. “The heartbreaking part of
this is we can’t make gifts to the
community
using
student
money,” said Dr. Lorenzetti. The
issue is not the worth of the
program but rather using student
mandatory fees for a program not
directly benefiting students, he
added.

Another practice he felt could
not be paid for by student fees
was reimbursement of volunteers
for expenses incurred while
performing CAC work. Dr.
Lorenzetti feels this contradicts
the definition of volunteer. “It is
incongruous to us that a volunteer
should be reimbursed,” he said.
At a May 10 meeting, Dr.
Lorenzetti and CAC officers
arrived at what he called “verbal
guidelines” for each of the
programs the organization is
involved with. All agreed that
some
including
practices,
reimbursement and the Big
Brother program, should be
examined and either revamped or
discontinued.
Dr. Lorenzetti had great praise
for the good intentions of CAC
volunteers but repeated that the
question at hand concerns the
proper use of mandatory student
fees. “I don’t want to hurt CAC,”
he said. Yet his office is
responsible for the administration
of fees and he must remain aware
of that responsibility. He feels the
new verbal guidelines will allow
CAC to continue much as it did
before and that he will always be
“open to suggestions.”

farmworkers and signing with the independent

In accordance with Mr. Kole’s proposal, an

sentence which he served first at Greenhaven, then
Wallkill and now Clinton prison.
While in Erie County Jail, Mr. Sostre initiated
law suits against Sherrif Mike Amico and Jailor
Frank Festa which challenged the rule prohibiting
inmates to receives newspapers and
legal
correspondence. He also has prepared a claim on
behalf of women prisoners regarding discriminatory
prison practices.
Currently at Clinton Prison, Mr. Sostre has been
in solitary confinement because he will not submit
to what he considers dehumanizing strip and rectal
searches and because he will not shave off his beard
and mustache.
Arto Williams actually recanted his 1968
testimony almost two years ago. However, he
remained in California until recently and thus
avoided possibly facing perjury charges carrying a
seven year sentence. In May, Mr. Williams returned
to Buffalo and filed an affidavit in which he swore
that he had framed Mr. Sostre by concealing a bag of
heroin on his person before he entered Mr. Sostre’s
bookstore and made it to appear to onlooking police
that he got the heroin from Mr. Sostre.

Righting a wrong
Mr. Williams said that his decision to reverse his
testimony came because he had participated in a
drug rehabilitation program and felt a need to right
his earlier mistakes.
In the affidavit, Mr. Williams stated that after he
was arrested in Buffalo in June, 1967 on burglary
and grand larceny charges he wrote a letter to the
Buffalo Police Narcotics Division and in response,
Alvin Gristmacher, then a sergeant in the squad,
came to visit him.
“He asked me if I knew anyone who was selling
drugs,” Mr. Williams said. Mr. Williams replied that
he knew several and mentioned numerous names
which caused little reaction by the police officer. Mr.
Williams testified that Sgt. Gristmacher then offered
the name of Martin Sostre and asked if Mr. Williams
had any knowledge of Mr. Sostre selling drugs. Mr.
Williams said, “I thought about it awhile and 1 said
yes.”
Mr. Williams claimed that Sgt. Gristmacher said,
“We are very interested in Sostre because we believe
he was the cause of the riot in 1967.”
Released as a reward
“I was given to understand that if I helped the
police in convicting. Sostre, if would aid me in my
case,” Mr. Williams stated in the affidavit. “Chief
Amico [Erie County Sheriff] said in substance that
he would get me released without bail,” claimed Mr.
Williams.
Mr. Williams also testified that Sheriff Amico
expressed the view similar to that of Sgt.
Gristmacher that Mr. Sostre was the cause of the
1967 riots. In addition, he maintained that Sheriff
Amico had assured him of his jail release and that
the following day he was taken to the judge’s
chambers and released on his owh recognizance.
On the evening he claimed to have framed Mr.
Sostre, Mr. Williams said he met Sgt. Gristmacher
and was drivfen to the Afro-Asian Bookstore. He
entered the store with a plainclothes officer who
remained at the shop entrance. Mr. Williams said he

In addition, Trooper Louis Stevenson said that
he saw Mr. Sostre hand Mr. Williams a small bag on
the night of the now alleged frame-up. Under
questioning by Mr. Sostre’s attorney, Paul Chevigry,
Mr. Stevenson said he had not mentioned actually
witnessing Sostre hand a bag to Williams in the
affidavit he prepared three days after the 1967
incident.
As of today, Federal Court Judge John Curtin
has reserved decision on Sostre’s application for a
writ of habeas corpus. Both Assistant Attorney
General Douglas Cream and Mr. Sostre’s attorney
Paul Chevigry are expected to file briefs concerning
the case in the near future. Gary Mucci, law clerk to
Judge Curtin, estimated that a decision would be
handed down in three to four weeks.
