AIDS lecturer provokes controversy Hundreds criticize Cameron

_,.:-·. ' _., -~- -: :-.

BY NANCY PRACHT AND DOUG MANDEL

Dubbed the most dangerous man in America by the U.S. Surgeon General, Paul Cameron debated sex­ual preference and safe sex with nearly 500 members of the Ithaca College community last night in Textor 102. Prior to the presentation, Cameron said he hoped "to embarrass those who feel that education will stop the threat of AIDS.

Cameron repeatedly used the word children when referring to individuals he said were transmitting the AIDS virus, which confused members of the audience.

"Right now a group of rebellious children are demanding the right to do what they want, when they want," Cameron said. "If you give too much attention to rebellious children they become spoiled. Spoiled children de­mand the attention of society ... What right do these disturbed children have?"

IC ranks second in survey Ithaca College was ranked second

percent ranked Ithaca in th~ top ten. Villanova University received the highest rating, with 48 percent voting in its favor, while third place went to Rochester Institute of Technology.

The brief description of Ithaca that accompanied the rankings made

special mention of the College's "highly regarded physical therapy program." The other eastern com­prehensive institutions were mention­ed as having strong engineering pro­grams, cooperative education pro­grams and strong liberal arts cores.

strip, entitled Leatherman. After reading and explaining the comic strip in great detail, Cameron added that parents · are · opposed to children behaving in "that manner." In his description, Cameron also told of homosexual men meeting and engag­ing in immediate sexual activity without utilizing precautions.

Cameron said that AIDS and the HIV virus can be contracted by bodily fluids and secretions. He further stated that using a condom or any other method of safe sex would not be effective in AIDS prevention.

"He [Cameron] thinks that homosexuals share only sex," said Friedman. "That's not true. There's love involved also."

At this point, memebers of the au­dience became disruptive, heckling the speaker. One individual repeatedly chanted, "Faggots and dykes and bi's, oh my." People cursed, stamped their feet, and laughed. One person even at­tempted to distract the speaker by blowing soap bubbles. Cameron, although forced to interrupt his presentation at one point, maintain­ed complete composure.

"There is no evidence that shows that any AIDS prevention programs work," Cameron continued. Tens of billions of dollars has gone into drug prevention literature, he added, "and it never did any good." He quoted three unidentified studies which he said have proven that "kids" who are involved with drug education pro­grams are more apt to experiment with drug use.

Friedman, however, said Cameron "completely misquoted data, and you can look in any book and find out that drivers, sex and drug education is effective."

"He began his speech by stating there was no one qualified to debate him," added Susanne Morgan, facul­ty adviser to the Prevention Network and associate professor of sociology. "His tactic is trying to get people to

Based on the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement- of Teaching classification system, the comprehen­sive category refers to institutions that award more than half of their bachelor's degrees in professional fields. There are 124 eastern colleges and universities included in that category.

In the survey, college presidents na- · tionwide were asked to select the IO schools providing the best undergraduate education from among those classified in the same category as their own.

debate him. And when they refuse, he states that no one is qualified. Most responsible academics won't debate him."

Fatal virus In 1982, the American public was

introduced to this fatal virus, Cameron said. At the time, experts on this issue felt that the best way to cur­tail AIDS was to educate the public, he continued, adding that every year the number of people infected with the virus has doubled.

The best method of preventing the further spread of the disease, Cameron said, is to use a "soft quarantine" approach in which those who have AIDS wear a tatoo--either on their forehead or hand- to infonn others of their status. Cameron also mentioned another quarantine ap-

Valenti: no regrets

"I took a move I've never regret­ted," said Jack Valenti, president of the Motion Picture Asociation of America (MP AA), as he delivered his speech on October 8 in Philips Hall. The "move" was to become the third person to hold his position with the MP AA, an organization consisting of nine of the largest film producers and distributors in the world. He also holds the position of chairman of the Motion Picture Export Association of America and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers.

Valenti began his speech with a short autobiography of his career, starting with his work as an advertis­ing and political consultant executive with an agency he co-founded in 1952. His work as a political consultant gained him a position on former President Kennedy's staff. Tragical­ly, Valenti was present in the motor­cade in Dallas when Kennedy was assassinated. In the time following the assassination, Valenti was asked to become President Johnson's special assistant, assisting the president with speechwriting and dealing with the media. He served the Johnson ad­ministration from I %3 to 1966. Valenti spoke fondly of this time in his life and of the late President Johnson. · It was during his service at the White House when Valenti was first approached by the leaders of all the major studios, and was offered the

i job of president of the MPAA. At first, Valenti refused, but this made the studio leaders redouble their ef­

The next issue Valenti addressed was the expected decrease in the number of movie-goers due to rented vi~~ tapes. He gave two reasons why this 1s untrue as people are still being drawn back into the theatres. "You feel like you're in the movie. You are in Vietnam in Platoon. "We're mak­ing better movies," said Valenti He stated that the quality of a mo~e's presentation on large screens and more sophisticated sound systems is superior to watching a movie on television. His second reason is that the aspect ratio of fihn is different from television's. A movie shown on television is not as good because the amount of picture seen on a television screen is less than that on a film screen.

Valenti concluded the lecture part of his speech and opened himself to questions from the audience.

"Do friends and connections help and are union memberships needed to make it in the movies?" asked cinema major Cliff Kominski. ''Yes of course connections can help you, but if you don't have talent - forget it," said Valenti. Valenti then advised the au­dience that talent in writing is the most successful way into both movies and television. "That [the writing] is the 'open sesame' way into the entertain­ment industry," Valenti suggested. He also stated job positions for writers ar(! the only ones movie or television studios have trouble filling. Valenti praised writer Stephen Bochco for his latest wrok on the new television series Hooperman staring John Ritter. ~ale?ti described the series as being,

... hfted by the quality of the writing."

"What about colorization?" asked Business Management Major Ross Yigran. V?1enti showed some fatigue m addressmg this controversial ques­tion. With a very heartfelt, sorrowful reply he stated the two sides of the problem. He compared a movie to a work of art, a painting for example. "If someone changed the colors or added colors where there were none on a Monet or Van Gogh it would mean pilfering the artistic choiced of the ~st," he explained. The argu­ment m favor of colorization was strictly_ on_ a monetary scale. Sadly, Valenti said that, "TV stations are

· willing to pay seven times more for a colorization [copy of a movie] than for the black and white copy."

L~ctures address aging -problems BY GABRIELLE GAROFALO The last thing on most college stu­

dent's minds is growing old and gray, but statistjcs say t1u\t one of every nine Americans is 65 years of age or older, and by the year 2010, the statistics will increase to one out of seven; by 2030 that number will be one out of five. Now, more than ever before, the old are getting older. Not only are people living longer, but the frail elderly (75 years and older) are living longer as well.

Last April, Dr. George L. Maddox, the renowned gerontologist of Duke University, started the Gerontology Lecture Series. This lecture series was created to help increase the awareness of all people, not only about geron­tology, but also alx>ut the many career opportunities that are available in this field. This year Ithaca College spon­sored two talks on Gerontology. The first was· Janet S. Sainer, the Commis­sioner of the New York City Depart­ment for the Aging, and the second was Dr. Harvey Stearns who is the director of the Institute for Life-Span Development and Gerontology at the University of Akron. "Services to the Aging: Where are

'· we going?" Janet Sainer spoke on "Services to

the Aging: Where are we going?" She feels that ."aging in America is chang­ing, _and there have bee1,1 radical transformations in the 20th century." yet there is a desperate n_eaj for more changes to occur. The gmwth of sick elderly is increasing every. week. In NYC between 1970-1980 the actual n}ilnber of the elderly decreased, but iil i that same amount of time the number of elderly over the age 85 in­creased by 81 percent. Something must be done to help the grandparents and great grandparents of America says Sainer; "It is an important role, indeed a responsibility, of both public and private sectors of society to care for their elderly."

There are also many steps to be

themselves. An example.of this is a 12 session curriculum being set up with lectures for the elderly. Some of these lectures include "Prescription to good Life," which will take a close look at the elderly's pharmaceutical needs and how to deal with the high cost of medicine. Another is "Getting Better All the Time," which deals with sex after 60. These lectures are structured to increase awareness of the elderly and to let them know that they are not helpless, and in fact they can learn to help themselves.

Sainer closed her lecture by saying that the elderly are people to be con­cerned about. The more advances that are made now in 1987 to help the pro­grams along, the easier it will be to continue with help.

"Aging and Work: A Look . Toward the Future"

The second speaker that Ithaca College sponsored was Dr. Harvey Stearns. His lecture was on "Aging and Work: A Look Toward the Future." Stearns feels that with the ever-changing times of technology and autonomy, elders are being left behind. ,

People are always complaining that the old lady's who are cashiers at Woolworth's are too slow, or the old man at the gas station takes too long to fill the tank says Stearns. Whatever the complaint may be, it is up to us to help educate these older people so that when they do get jobs, they feel comfortable with the materials they'd be working with.

"Aging· and working need to be looked at as lx>th changing together" instead of working against each other or in opposite ways stressed Stearns. He goes on to say that "normal ag­ing does not affect one's ability to work." Unfortunately, too many employers do think that aging affects the ability to work or at least work well.

Stearns is in search for new and bet­ter programs to help train and re-train

taken to help the elderly hels the elderly who do wish to work. HI reminds us that America is supposedl) the "land of opportunity." This says nothing about that opportunity being taken away because a person is old. What ever hapened to the old being -respected and looked up to for wisdom?

Old isn't ugly Tom DiMatteo, a professor who

teaches gerontology here at IC, has some feedback. He feels too many people practice agism. Agism is the prejudice against people becuase they are old. He goes on to say that this prejudice is unlike all other types of prejudice; "With racism, people who are white don't wake up black and with anti-semetic, people who aren't Jewish don't wake up Jewish, but with agists, some day we all wake up old."

DiMatteo feels that within the last couple of decades, especially now in 1987, the idea of being old is associated with ugliness. He cited ex­amples from television; "wash that ugly gray out of your hair," "wipe those ugly age spots away." The ex­amples never end. There is a desperate need to start educating about geron­tology in grade school asserts DiMat­teo. This "is a way to face the process, of aging with a healthy outlook" in­stead of dreading one's 60th birthday. He feels the more we learn, the easier it will be to shatter stereotypes like those about "dirty old men," "old bag ladies" and those like "old peo­ple can't have sex."

What's Next? Speakers to look for in the spring

series are Dr. Butler, the founder of the National Institute on Aging, and Dr. Arthur Fleming, who was the Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare under President Eisenhower. For any information or questions about the lecture series or about pur­suing a gerentology minor, contact Thomas DiMatteo at 274-3355.

"How can a man honestly close his mind and want to stamp out an en­tire group of people who just want to live and love life without hurting anybody? This man is sick," com­mented audience member James A. Bond, of Terrace 11.

The presentation closed with a question and answer period. This was met-by the observers with hostility and animosity. Both questions and answers were consistently interrupted, with people using this session to vent their personal anger at the speaker.

One student seized the opportuni­ty to attempt to discredit Cameron by charging that the speaker was, "spew­ing diarrhea" out of his mouth.

Members of the audience reinforced this statement by laughing and ap­plauding. The question and answer segment continued in turmoil.

President of GALA, Cameron was expelled from the American Psychological Association (APA). Gorenstein also said Cameron claims he believes his expulsion was caused by his failure to respond to cor­respondence from colleagues who were protesting an anti-gay and les­bian march that he took part in.

"It takes more than disbelief in the APA'sviews to be expelled,'' Gorens­tein countered. "That information, unfortunately, is confidential to everyone, including members of the APA."

Although Cameron's appearance stirred controversy, ."There was pro­test and a lot of negative feelirigs," said Marieke Van Willigen, Coor­dinator of the Prevention Network. "These feelings were mostly based on the history of violence against

IC security creates visible force in room

2ameron marked the presence of nwnerous members of the Ithaca Col­lege Safety and Security. There were uniformed officers both outside the lecture hall, as well as inside. Atten­ding the lecture were Louis Withiam, Director of Safety and Security, and Norman Wall, Assistant Director of Safety and Security. Seated on op­posite ends of the second row, were two plainclothes security officials. Oneofthem, David Stanton, was ask­ed why he was at the lecture. He denied comment. There were also members of SASP present.

Withiam, although not expecting any violence, said he felt it necessary to staff the room with security. Robert Glicker, Treasurer of Young Americans for Freedom, stated that there have been previous cases of violence in past Cameron speeches.

There had been no hate mail or threats against Cameron last night, Glicker added.

The presentation, which lasted about an hour and 15 minutes, ap­parently went off with no actions taken by security.

A personal view. • • BY HYNDA SCHREIBER

Entering Textor, I knew this would be no "normal" speaker coming to Ithaca College. As I approached the room, I was -bombarded with leaflets from The Gay And Lesbian Alliance (GALA), The Prevention Network and Young Americans For Freedom (Y AFF). Looking around I was amazed to see that so many people had shown up. • '

Members of "protesting" groups were present but there was no scream­ing and fighting as I had imagined. The room began to fill up. There was tension in the air. All around me were people "guessing" what was going to happen. I began talking to members of the sponsoring organizcuion (Y AFF) to find out what their thoughts were, as well as to members of GALA.

The room was packed. There were hundreds. Hundreds. And there were people in the hall they wouldn't even let in. "The Most Dangerous Man in America" was introduced. The audience fell silent and a few people clap­ped. Very few. Cameron began speaking about "rebellious children" and how they should be "controlled". I was confused, and wondered what he was trying to convey. Then he pulled out "Leathennan" (an explicit, homosexual cartoon strip). As I sat about seven feet away, he described each and every frame of the cartoon. I didn't un~erstand what the purpose was. My objectivity began to fade away, and I began to wonder what kind of per­son he was.

For 45 minutes I sat, constantly looking around the room at peoples faces­-most expressing disgust. One onlooker, a man in a wheelchair in the back of the room, chanted "Fags, Dikes and Bi's oh my ... " blowing bubbles with bubble soap. Another yelled riot; the whole room turned to look. And yet, another yelled to Cameron that she did not feel people engaging in "high risk" activity should be called children, ripped up the literature Y AFF had handed out and left; others followed.

When Cameron finished "talkingac us" (a term I might add he himself used), he took questions. Before this he had even stated "Any of you could have accepted my offer to debate me but, no one did." He was so cocky. The crowd went wild! People screaming at Cameron, at one another, and people just screaming. Cameron tried to hand pick individuals whose ques- · tions he would answer-But there was no order. Someone would say something. Sometimes someone would shout something. Then everyone would start shouting. People were walking out. People were walking in. It was just chaos.

And it was scary. "What if this man gets some real power, what would happen?". "Are there a lot of people who feel this way?". "Do people I go to school with everyday share these views?". The pit of my stomach felt hollow and I began to get a headache. I thought back to before the lecture . -~hile I was talking to my friend Harvey: I said "Can you believe that only SIX people started all this chaos?" He replied "It only took one in Germany."· I cringed. ·

The Independent Student Coali­tion's General Assembly met on cam­pus for a weekend before fall break to elect new officers and to discuss which public policy issues to concen­trate on this year. Eight schools out of the 117 private schools in NY were represented at the conference. Out of these 117 schools, only 50 are members of the ISC. "One of the big­gest problems are schools that think what's the difference if we pay or not; we' II still get the benefits," says past Chairman of the Executive Board, David Wood.

John Cerveny, full-time Executive Director in Albany, NY, explains one of the main purposes of the ISC: "Our mission is to insure access and affordability to schools in New.York State. The programs in the state aren't doing that job. People are bqrrowing their way into real frnancial trouble."

TV grads give advice BY CHRIS SWINGLE

''Their success stories and career advice mean even more because they all went to Ithaca College,'' said Kim Cardinal, president of the school's chapter of Alpha Epsilon Rho. Rho sponsored Friday's alumni panel and reception, bringing five IC graduates to campus to speak to an audience of 35 students and faculty.

The speakers are now members of the WHP News staff, Harrisburg, PA. They came back to school "to help the current students better prepare for their careers," said News Director Chris Fickes, '80.

Still, she cautioned seniors not to spend all their time worrying about finding that first job.

Anchor/Reporter Liz Guiliano, '82, agreed that much of frnding a job is luck, such as having your resume tape arrive at a station the day they fire a staff member. "Most jobs in broadcasting occur, literally, over­night," she said.

Producer Scott Benjamin, '83, and Sportscaster Kurt (Gregory) Smutko, '84, rounded out the panel. They showed vintage videoclips from their broadcasting as students on ICB-TV, to the amusement of the audience, plus recent'pieces from WHP.

The speakers also advised students

6 THE ITHACAN - • 1 _: !· ! . 1 ~ ~ : • t ·~ t October 29, 19~ -South Hill candidates clash over housing

Dickerson: colleges must build more dorms

Willard Dickerson, the Republican candidate for Second Ward Alderman, held a press con­ference recently at Ithaca College concerning Tuesday's city elections.

Dickerson is a graduate student studying medieval history at Cornell University, after hav­ing graduated from Cornell in 1980. His present campaign is his first move toward politics. Although Dickerson is inexperienced in this field, he feels his qualifications are sufficient. "I work hard and I listen," he said. "Local government does not need self-proclaimed experts." Dicker­son currently supports himself as a part-time minister at a local church.

Of the many issues concerning the Second Ward, Dickerson is paying close attention to the city's contract negotiations with Anlerican Com­munity Cablevision. ACC's contract is due to ex­pire soon, and the city is making demands on the company in order to provide better cable television to the community.

One such proposal includes the installation by ACC of two-way interactive cable capability. This allows the use of cable magazine services in which the consumer can select specific pieces of infonnation. Dickerson does not support the installation of two-way cable, saying that the cost to the community for this service would not be equal to its benefit. Dickerson estimates that the service would be used by only seven percent of the community; he feels the city is being too demanding on ACC and should "give ACC a fair shake."

Other issues raised include the ever-present housing crunch in Ithaca. Dickerson called it a

"landlord's market" and cited three ways in which the city could alleviate the problem of overpriced, unkempt housing. He suggested that the city force both Ithaca College and Cornell University to build more student housing to match their increasing enrolbnents. This need has not been met, causing students to more quickly move to the too few off-campus houses and apartments. As landlords can rent these houses to several students for more than they could to a single family, there remains a shortage of houses available at affordable rates for single families.

Second, Dickerson feel that the city needs to show greater support for services such as the Ithaca Neighborhood Housing Service, a pro­gram his opponent Susan Cummings has sup­ported for years. He also sees a need for the ci­ty to encourage private builders to construct more student-and single-family housing units. He feels that there is sufficient space and need for these structures to be constructed. The taxes amassed from these new units would provide a boost for the economy of Ithaca as well.

Dickerson stated his position on the controver­sial redevelopment of the Stewart Park area and the possible construction of an Octopus over­pass. He supports no significant change to the park area other than an improvement of the bathroom facilities. Dickerson supports the high­im~ overpass but claims he would vote accor­ding to the desires of the community. "Local government should be responsive to its consti­tuents," he stated.

Dickerson concluded the conference by responding to questions concerning both the separation of church and state and his somewhat uneasy relationship with Cummings. Dickerson announced that he would be leaving his position as minister, and would not allow his religious beliefs to enter the realm of politics.

Regarding Cummings, who has continually criticized his political beliefs as.being narrow and

undeveloped, Dickerson suggested that she does not know what she is saying. "Her remarks are based on assumptions that are not true," he said. "She is trying to draw attention away from her

own record'" Seth Farbman

With city elections coming up, Second Ward Alderwoman Susan Cummings had a lot to say about the issues and her opponent in a recent news conference at Ithaca College.

Cummings discussed what she considered the major issue in this campaign: wealth. "Ithaca is an extremely wealthy, prosperous community," Cummings said. Ithaca has the lowest unemploy­ment rate in the state, and both Cornell Univer­sity and Ithaca College have had increasing enrollments "in an era when enrollments were expected to decline," she said.

However, there is a flip side. Ithaca has a high rate of underemployment: That is, many local residents have service-sector jobs that are low paying and unchallenging. "There are high tech jobs, yet not enough people to fill them," Cum­mings said. Another negative aspect is that the growth in student enrollment has put pressures on the community by creating "a housing crunch, parking problems, and noise problems," she said. "These prosperous universities create a tremendous set of burdens on the community."

"The cost of housing is high in the communi­ty," Cummings continued. "It's astronomical compared to the rest of upstate New York." Most housing isn't affordable to the lower in­co.me or poor city residents, and many students ·are paying high rents for shabby conditions.

"People are terrified by the specter before

statemeni. She said she is proud to have been ~: valved in a project that was a benefit to the com. munity in ways such as making more housin available to students and making sure the cit; gets a share of the profits. Cummings alsc strongly agreed with using· federal funds to gel the project underway.

Dickerson, as Cummings put it, "fits the tradi­tional Republican role." Since Dickerson is aJsc a Fundamentalist minister, Cummings suggested his can~~cy m~~ lead to a_ mixture of religion ~d politics. This 1s som~ng that Cumming! said she opposes. Another 1s the "mean spiritec and erroneous personal attacks" Dickerson hai made against her. "It's just stupid," she said.

Cummings believes that city officials must ac­tively seek a strong cooperation between the ci ty and the universities. "Ithaca is a place when we ought to be united through optimism rathe1

than divided by fear," she said. ~nda Lundgm

8 THE OllACAN

OPINIONS/LETTERS The degradation of porn I

Recent weeks have been, to say the very least, politically volatile. With the crash of the stock market, escalating conflict in Iran, and the impending summit meeting, issues such as pornography have been moved off the front pages. These issues should not be forgotten.

The Post-Standard reported this week on a former Syracuse University student whose boyfriend had taken nude pictures of her. The ooyf riend then forged her signature on model release forms, and one of the pictures subsequently appeared in Hustler magazine with the woman's name and residence printed underneath it. Feeling that Hustler had defamed and humiliated her, as well as violated her civil rights, the woman decided to sue the magazine.

Hustlers opinion, not surprisingly, is quite different. While Hustler · does not argue the fact that the woman did not submit the pictures, the magazine says that it is not responsible for the damages-- her ex­boyfriend is. Hustler claims to have followed all internal procedures before publishing the photograph.

Well, it's tough fighting City Hall-- and organizations like Hustler are getting more and more ''city hall-ish.'' These organizations-- those that deal in the loosly defined business of "pornography" -- make up a multi-million dollar industry that has become as standard in U.S. society as agriculture. It is assumed that because "internal pro­cedures" exist, they are adequate and effective (not altogether unlike in our government). This idea has been proven false time and again, and yet people consistently believe that women in pornography are involved voluntarily.

Let's say that the woman wins her lawsuit against Hustler . Does that negate the degradation and humiliation of having thousands of people pay to see a photograph she considered to be private? Does that mean it will never happen to anyone again?

Pornography is a very complex issue, one that is often associated with the First Amendment, feminism, and religion. Despite widespread arguments against it, it is difficult to find college students who have not been exposed to a lot of porn. People often consider the viewing of pornography to be a matter of personal choice, and perhaps this is a valid point. .

But think about this. When buying a pornographic magazine or renting a videotape, it is not just naked bodies, sex, and a moronic plot that the money buys. It also pays for the destruction of the human spirit, and supports the entrapment of people who do not want to be involved, but become victims of poverty, ignorance, and faulty screening processes.

So if you like porn, and think that porn is okay, be aware of the ideas and choices you are supporting. Figure out what the money is endorsing. It doesn't take much imagination, really.

Whalen has not vetoed debit cash program

To the Editor: I wish to respond to Neal

Greenberg's October 1st letter in the Ithacan concerning the debit cash meal plan. Mr. Greenberg is correct that the administration has been con­sidering such a plan but unfairly disparages President Whalen by in­dicating that he has vetoed it. Such a plan has been under consideration for more than a year but no decision has been made on it. Mr. Greenberg minimizes the complexity of the issues involved. If there is any reason why this plan has not yet been im­plemented, it is because of a genuine concern about whether or not it is in the best interest of all students.

Mr. Greenberg's explanation of how a debit cash plan works is basical­ly correct. The point plan that he recommends at the end of his letter is exactly the same kind of plan utiliz­ing points rather than cash. The unkno\\-n dining hall managers con­sulted by Mr. Greenberg have neither the authority nor the responsibility to decide if Ithaca College will have a debit cash plan. I wish he would have taken the trouble to talk to Anne Humphrey or me as we are the in­dividuals who have been working \\ith the President. -

Some of the problems and concerns for moving to a debit cash program are: I. A new food service contractor v.a, hired etfecfr,e July 1, 1987. It v.ould have been imprudent 10 ask a ne-,\ company 10 jump into a :ocal]:. dif­ferent plan before 1: had ~ome ::>.­perience with the camp:.:;_ 2. Some of the more compk1. !;.~u::; that must be resoh ed are.-

A. The current fo.:ed pn..:e mt:al plan allows families to accurareh forecast that portion of their edu~­tional costs. Under a debit cash meal plan, the cost for each student will vary depending upon his/her par­ticular eating habits. Some students will pay less, some will pay more. \Ve are concerned about what impact a debit cash plan would have on fan11-ly planning for annual financial requirements.

B. Under the current meal plan, it is a known fact that the average number of meals eaten is less than the number that could be eaten. Prices would have to be increased if every student ate every available meal. Under a debit cash plan we must start with the assumption that students will eat the number of meals equivalent to the actual historical average. The results for each person will vary accor­ding to his/her individual eating habits and buying habits under the new plan. The experience of other in­stitutions is that this is a problem for some students because they do no budget carefully.

This problem can be addressed within the debit cash plan but explain-

ing it to students and parents requires special care. We have.been consulting with other schools and working on the information that would havi! to be disseminated so that everyone understands the major difference bet­ween our traditional plan and a debit cash plan.

C. Giving money back could be a problem relative to taxes. However, this is not a major consideration in reaching a decision on a debit cash plan. In all debit cash and point systems, there is a "minimum buy-in level" that provides the necessary funds to cover basic expenses such as building maintenance, utilities, labor, etc. Beyond that level, whether or not students have funds left at the end of the year, depends upon their in­dividual consumption habits. Giving unused money back is an option but \\ e do have some concerns that we may have to charge sales tax because it would no longer be a prepaid meal plan. Most schools resolve the pro­blem by allowing students to buy ad­ditional food at the end of the year if they have unused balances. The ex­perience of other schools is that a small minority of students fall into this category. Mr. Greenberg's allegation that President Whalen vetoed the en­tire idea because of this aspect is simp­ly not true.

In summary, we are working hard to finalize a proposal. I have not even mentioned such problems as necessary computer support, various dining op­tions that might be offered (do we open up the snack bar from 11 :30am to 1 :30pm for debit cash customers?) and possible physical renovations. If \\e do proceed, we want it to be right.

Reagan must be blocked

• again To the Editor:

In viewing recent events, particular­ly the blocking, in the U.S. Senate, of the Bork nomination, it has become clear that Ronald Reagan's right wino policies lack the popular support th; he once thought they had. Regardless of this reality he continues to press on. Now he is pushing for new aid to the Contras in Nicaragua. It is time to mobilize against this latest attempt to belittle the wishes of the American people.

After winning the Bork fight we can not sit back with complacent grins. We must continue to act. That means carefully scrutinizing and possibly blocking the President's next Supreme Court Nomination and halting any new aid to the Contras.

It is already known that "blocking Bork" was a crucial step in protecting our civil liberties and those of others but many still may ask why and ho~ ~hould w~ block C~ntra aid. The why is rather simple. It is because for the

· first time in about a century ;he Cen­tral American ~ations are reaching a ~eace accord without US interven­uon and for once it seems that there

WIMPY~ WIMPY, WIMPQ,

will be peace in that region. The Cen­tral American Peace Plan is a giant step in gaining the sovereignty that the US has been consistently denying them. Also, blocking Reagan's call for more aid will send him a message that the American people do no buy his rhetoric. that the Communists arc securing a beach head in our backyard. Frankly, it is not our business t_o tell the sovereign state of Nicara~ who to take military aid from. It is though, our business to cn­coura~,~d demand human 'right, improve~ents in that entire region particularly in those nations that we choose to ann (such as El Salvador 01

Chile}. I ,t. F ~- i . ."Hf : · Finally, how to achieve this end· it

is not by any means but rather by p~­ticipating in our democratic proccs,. We can do that by writing to our elected representatives demanding that they vote against any new aid to the Contras and by educating ourselves. We must become aware of the situa­tion around us. We must know that a "Bork Nomination" or "Contra Aid" are symbols of a greater danger that permeates our society. To fight it we must be educated and willing to participate in our democratic proces,. In other words we must exercise our right to dissent.

Student Gov't is here for you To the Editor:

It is my experience that people at Ithaca College ·do not really know what Student Government at Ithaca College does. Do people know where the Student Activities Center is located and the purpose of the activities center?

I want to let you know that in ca5e you have any concerns. Some of the student concerns which we are presently working on include parking and lighting as well as academic con­cerns such as the registration proces, and the uses of the Tuesday-Thursday meeting time. All students are welcomed to come to the Student Government meetings on Tuesday nights at 8:15 in the North Meeting Room of the Egbert Hall.

If you can't make the meeting and you want your voice heard, contact a student representative. There are representatives from each resident hall, off campus and each academic school. I hope that you will use the representatives in order to voice your opinions or concerns. The students are there for you, so all students can have a voice to the administration.

The Student Activities Center is located on the 3rd floor of the Egbert Hall and consists of an area set aside for the use of students. It is a place where student groups or organizations can obtain supplies, conduct meetings or get work done: This activities center is for the students of IC and it is my hope· that students will make use of this area and the students who repre-sent us.

Halloween past and present Enjoy the festivities of the season

. ;

., i t

BY EMILY SPECKMAN Halloween is a festival of Scottish­

Irish origin held on All Hallows Eve, the-night of October 31. Elements of the customs connected with Hallo­ween can be traced to a Druid ceremony in pre-Christian times: The name given to the night of October 31, is the eve or vigil of All Saints. Of all nights .in the year, this is the one upon which supernatural influences most prevail. The spirits of the dead wander abroad together with witches, devils and mischief-making elves, and in some cases the spirits of living per-

"::; tf !Jdew. :

Of all the nights·of the year, this is the one upon which supernatural in­fluences most prevail.

Many of the ancient rites were brought to this country from Europe but they no longer have any mystic significance; what do remain are Holloween traditions. The pumpkin replaced the turnip for carved jack-o­lantems. In the late 19th century the Irish belief was that the "little people"

t,.._~_,,.M.;q,.~-4-~ ;7~),,.,,.,.,.;;_.,,,,_ '\1,11.,_.,,_, ~ ~ '.,._ .

....... _

or "fairies" played pranks on Hallo­ween and led boys and young men to carry out practical jokes on that night. Many of the pranks were disturbing and destructive. In the 20th century a less destructive practice arose. Children dress up in costumes and go door-to-door for "trick or treat." They collect candy or pennies; un­friendly or absent householders may be punished by tricks-customarily mild but sometimes destructive.

Halloween, nowadays, has been associated not with the Druids of Europe, but rather the dreary time of -year. Not only does the sun set earlier, but the chilly air prevails, while the turning leaves rustle in the wind. Children and young adults dress up in the costUII\es of their utmost desire, and scurry through the streets, laughing and smiling. Halloween brings joy to many, while providing mysterioius wonders to others. It is the time to gather with. friends, speak of spine chilling tales and gorge on Halloween treats.

Many of us here at Ithaca College do not wonder where the tradition of

Halloween began, but enjoy the festivities of the season. In the past, residence halls have sponsored parties and awarded prizes for the most original costumes while homes off campus also held parties for their own circle of friends. This year, again, several residence halls will be sponsor­ing Halloween parties, so be sure to check it out with your hall representative.

The Student Activities Board (SAB) of Ithaca College will sponsor Oc­toberfest 1987. Octoberfest will take . place on Saturday October 31 and will be held in the quad behind the new student union. The event will include the popular sounds of The Catch, Fallen l)ero and Exit Party. Each band has its unique sound, so be sure to check it out. Octoberfest will also in­clude Vaseline Twister and Jello Wrestling tournaments. Along with the games, there will be free mugs and food. Octoberfest begins at 2pm and will end at 6pm in time for you to wander the spooky streets of Ithaca.

Other activities will take place in some local bars downtown. The Nines

in Collegetown will be holding a costume party and will provide prizes for the most original costumes. The North Forty will hold a costume par­ty and will award prizes to the best female, male and group costumes. The Waterfront will have a costume party beginning at 9pm and there will be cash prizes for best costume. 4 O'clock Connection will rock tl'ie place and a three dollar cover charge: will be required. The Rongovian Em­bassy in Trumansburg will sponsor a very interesting evening when: , the Glenn Phillips Band will warm up,for Static Cling. On stage, two membet;s of the band Static Cling will tie.the . knot. Yes, an authentic weddirig_~I!, take place on stage. Prizes for best , costume will include T-shirts and · ·- ~ "!

INXS: a band from Australia, will be appearing on the IC campus on Sunday. November l at 8pm in the Ben light Gym. Pictured left to right in the photo: Tim Farm, Kirk Pengilly, Garry Gary Beers, Michael Hutchence, Andrew Farris, and Jon Fanis.

BY JENNIFER LWYD INXS hasn't followed any

tradition-they've created their own. Since their creation in 1977, this group has drawn on influences from around the world, to become the famous Australian band that they are today.

The INXS sound is the result of six talented individuals, each contributing their uniqueness. They are: Michael Hutchence, vocals; Andrew Farriss, keyboards and guitar; Kirk Penqilly, guitars, saxophone, and vocals; Tim Farriss, guitar; Garry Gary Beers, bass; and Jon Farriss, drums and per-

cussion. Starting as The Farriss Brothers, and later renamed INXS, the group line up has remained un­changed to this day. Together, they have made themselves one of the most exciting bands in the world._

On record, the band is remarka1'.lle; on stage, they're phenorninal. Be prepared for a band that is considered by many to be among the best live bands in the world. This talent and energy comes from 300 shows a year, developing a unique sound and style, and earning a reputation for power­ful performances.

The great success of the last INXS

album released in 1985, Listen Like Thieves, was their first US million­seller. Five previous albums each add­ed a new dimension to their sound, those being The Swing (1984), Underneath the Colours (1981), and INXS (1980), which brings them to Kick, the sixth INXS album, releas­ed on October 23, 1987.

Kick began to shape in the summer of 1986 while the band was on tour in the US. Rhythm and blues is much a part of the new albwn, making it almost a blues 'n funk feeling emerg, ing. Hutchence notes, "We're really proud of this one."

·The Nines

BY ERIK SODERBERG The Nines in collegetown was built

originally to be a firehouse, then a bar and finally in 1979, the owners of t'he Chariot purchased it and add­ed a kitchen. Currently, the restaurant half of the operation offers piiza, nachos, ribs and other beer-oriented foods. The new proprietors also began providing seven nights of live music a week, but have brought about some changes since then.

The Nines has been renovated once and will b_e again soon. The music does not play quite as often as it used to, but there is still a strong tradition of live performance there. Bands are regularly there from 10pm to lam, and so is a crowd that is one quarter IC and three quarters CU. It has been voted third best bar in Ithaca by the Ithaca Times readers' poll, and is the only award. winning bar that con­sistently provides music.

Dancing welcomed, no disc jockeys allowed.

A regular jazz show used to occur on Wednesdays, including be-bopper Joe Salzano, but few turned up to listen. It seemed to Panek that peo­ple expected to have their jazz for free, considering that many local acts play without a cover charge. As a result, it is no more.

While talking with Panek, the sub­ject of the Nines lulled and he talk~d about the Ithaca music scene. He srud we are at the end of a five year dry period in the supply of local bands. It appears as if more and more are springing up lately, at least around Cornell and Collegetown, and Panek encourages them. He sees a parallel between this and the increased tension over Ithaca's and Cornell's burst in building development on and off cam­pus, for example, the new apartments

Peter Panek, the music booker for the Nines, tends bar at the Chariot, the sister business. He moved to Ithaca five years ago from Chicago and formed Peter Panak and the Blue Cats which plays the Nines on most Mondays. For Thursday through Sunday, he usually schedules other acts to play; bands that range within many popular and not so popular styles exa:pt full-blown country, hard­core punk, and heavy metal. This variety includes the reggae of lphoria, the Dead of Group Effort, rock from the Shambles, African rhythms from Sammi Te (highly recommended by Panek and the gentleman drinking

"Ain't Got You" lists off all the things that Bruce has got, but hey, he _ ain't got the girl, so how good can life really be? "Ain't Got You" may strike some as slight, but it sets the lyrical tone for the album while still staking out its own tenitory. It details the lack of "love," and the focus of this album is on that; Desire, longing, fear, doubt-Springsteen goes after many facets of the topic, and finds himself each time still searching for an

There is no saxophone here­-Clarence Clemons, Bruce's right hand big-man for 14 years only ap­pears as a vocalist on one track. Max Weinberg is the only band member that appears on a majority of the cuts.

Musically, Springsteen has leaped far ahead of where he was with Born. The subtleties here speak volumes for Springsteen's growth· as a musician. He does a lot with a little. Nebraska was too musically desolate to show Springsteen's· ability with a sparse canvas-Tunnel of Love adds just a few more color~ and yet achieves that sense of fragilitY, lµld quiet beauty that Nebraska achieved. He primarily ap­pears alone, and it's a testament to him that the only thing that's missing is the band behind him, not anything musically negative.

Day,'' has its character teetering bet­ween confidence and the utter fear of winding up stranded emotionally: "Is it the cry of the river/with the moonlight shining through/That ain't what scares me baby/What scares me is losing you." As opposed to Bom in the USA, which carefully balanc­ed political commentary and personal politics, Tunnel of Love looks at rela­tionships between two people and discovers that any answers you may find are temporary, and that you'll have to come up with new answers (and questions) at every turn.

In the title track, Springsteen sings, "It ought to be easy/ought to be sim­ple enough/Man meets a woman and they fall in love/But the house is haunted and the ride gets rough/and you've got to learn to live with what you can't rise above ...

Although Springsteen has been fairly revealing in songs past, this album bares a lot more of him than any record he's done. Given the sub­ject matter, that's not surprising. nut Springsteen uses his old lyrical stand­bys to bring out this new perspective on himself, and gives us a closer peek than if he's gone in a coµipletely dif­ferent direction to achieve that end.

The wedding bells that chime in "Walk Like aMan" have rung before in "The River," "I Wanna Marry You," and "Highway ·Patrolman."­What it shares with · those tracks, especially "The ~iver" and " ... Patrolman" is a fairly doubtful view on the whole deal, but like "I Wanna Marry You," it somehow finds the strength to hold out for hope. " .. .I didn't think there'd be so many steps/I'd have to leam on my own/Well I was young and didn't know what to do/When I saw your best steps stolen away from you/Now I'll do what I can/I'll walk like a man." There are dreams in there somewhere, but Springsteen focuses mainly on the pain of love. He's riot bitter, depressed and beaten by it; that's a cop-out he won't accept; what

October l9/i987 THE-ITHACAN 15

Carpenter strays from mad slasher films BY JAMES C. GLADUE peel in the church has the ability to

move objects and possess minds. It turns out to be no less than the son of the devil, trapped for 2000 years in secrecy by the Catholic Church.

The time has come for his re-entry into our dimension, unless he can be stopped by this group, led by Donald Pleasence and Jameson Parker. The comic relief is provided by Denny

Dunn, earlier seen in Carpenter's Big Trouble in Little China, but he can't overcome the burdensome dialogue of writer Martin QuatellI13S.S. The script leaves the audience as confused as the cast, and when the secret is revealed, it doesn't seem worth the relentless suspense.

The special effects should please the Nightmare on Elm Street crowd, but

they are not as gratuitous as those in Carpenter's The Thing. One in­teresting element is the method from which the demon spreads his in­fluence. He travels from host to host through their saliva, an interesting allegory to the spread of AIDS.

Another fascinating element is the concept of transporting video-images back through time. This element is not

adequately explained and is lost in this mess of a horror movie. OUpenter is affective in creating an eerie, tense mood, but it is hollow. It will be eag.. ly forgotten as soon as the viewer leaves the theater.

Prince of Darkness is an above­average horror film, but it is a disap­pointment coming from one who has previously demonstrated his mastery of the genre.

Dark is an appropriate adjective to describe the films of John Carpenter, and "Prince of Darkness" seems like an adequate alias for this horror film master. Unfortunately Prince of Darkness, the film, does not live up to the high standards set by Carpenter's earlier works (Halloween, The Thing, etc.) It is, however, a plea­sant diversion from the mad slasher pictures that flood the theaters.

While being of a more intellectual nature, Prinq? of Darkness pales in comparison to the ~orks of David Cronenberg (Videodrome, The Fly). The flaw in this ftlm is not in its story or effects, but in its lumbering pace. The film is constructed as a mystery, but it is so confusing that the viewer may become impatient waiting for the answers. The repetitious, ever-present m·usi~ pulse just adds to the monotony. What are these characters talk~ about?

4Play: friendship and rock-n-roll

The s_tory concerns a group of stu­dent ·physicists monitering the activi­ty of some strange force trapped in the basement of a church. There is an up­surge of odd natural events resulting in the apparent "possession" of in­sects and homeless bag-people (Alice Cooper is featuring as one of these wmbies). Apparently, the force trap-

Shabbat Service Friday 10/30 6pm

BY ERIC MAIERSON 4Play is a band based on friend­

ship; college friends who play what they like to call good rock-n-roll. In the 2 ½ years that they've been together, 4Play has attracted au­diences to every major club and bar on the Ithaca circuit. The audience, according to the band, has grown louder and crazier each year. Current­ly the band is comprised of original members Pete Wise (drums, vocals), Steve Sternberger (bass), Pete Noetzel (guitar, vocals) as well as former Catch keyboard and vocalist Greg Warnokowski.

Originally practicing in dorm rooms, 4Play became the first band to play the Dugout; a place that soon became home ground. The band now

Shabbat Dinner after service

E. Tower kitchen $3.00

Brunch/Open Meeting Sunday 11:30am

November 1, 1987 Laub Room Muller Chapel

enjoys a repertoire consisting of songs by nearly 50 different groups, most of which are reminiscient of '70s rock­n-roll. Two of these groups include the Steve Miller Band and the Doobie Brothers.

While the band as a unit directs itself toward '70s music, the individual members each have a variety of per­sonal influences that help to give 4Play its own unique sound. These in­fluences range from Steve's country and western tapes purchased at regional truckstops, to Greg's classical piano training. At one point, the band was even playing jazzy originals. But the aim of 4Play, emphasizes Steve, is to please the audience: A desire that the group has tried earnestly to stick to since its conception.

'When confronted with the question of competition among local bands, 4Play is quick to point out that they are friends with other groups. They see each other perform and hang out together when possible. So, there is no real edge between the different groups. Each band has something uni­que to contribute to its respectful au­diences. "It's not like any of us are trying to win out a record contract," jokes Steve.

There even seems to be a lack of ~mpetition within the band. Greg, and both Petes share the vocals equal­ly. This factor makes it possible for 4Play to have no central leader, which allows for a stronger bind amongst its members.

4Play will be playing "Devil's N"ight

Happy Hour" on Friday October 30 at the Dugout as well as playing Hap:".,, py Hour on Steve's birthday, the 13th of November, which will also be at the Dugout. Anyone wishing to contact the band for private parties can call 273-8416.

While the band will probably not stay together after graduation, the members of 4Play will certainly con­tinue to play individually. After play­ing together for nearly three years, how does a band say goodbye? Hopefully by playing the largest part of senior week with all of their friends present. Until then.· 4Play will con­tinue to entertain its · audience as it always has. ·

:"·shopping made fun and inexpensive BYJENND'ERLWYD

We all know how being a college student can force us to pinch pennies. or become very alert to what we arc spending our money on each and every day. Bills, payments, and mon­thly rent mean budgeting - leaving us with a limited amount of money for pleasure.

Those of you who consider clothes shopping as one of your pleasures may have had to almost rid this from your monthly spending altogether. Fortunately, it is not too late to become a smart shopper and find in­expensive yet fashionable clothing

· · 1"',ght here in Ithaca. Unbelievable? No matter what your taste may be, you'll find what you're looking for in four Ithaca second - hand shops.

Bib and Tucker, located at 105 E. Seneca St., carries merchandise com­ing in from donations. All clothes are cleaned so as to be presentable for sale. Bib and Tucker also receives an­tique and vintage clothing occasional­ly which is racked separately from the other pieces. Shoes and fashionable accessories are also available.

Money received from customers is donated to numerous charities and human services, making, your pur­chase even more special. The shop is open Tuesday through Friday, from 10am to 4pm, and Saturday, 10am to 1pm.

BIB & TUCKER: located at 105 E. Seneca Street.

The Salvation Anny, located at 39') Elmira Road, offers great deals and an outstanding selection and runs a weekly tag sale Friday and Saturday. Clothing is just one of the items you can purchase at the Salvation Army. Shoes, accessories, furniture, books, records, dishes, and more, make this store an interesting place to experience.

All money raised at the store is put back into the organization, which pro­vides many area services. Donations are accepted both at the store and at drop-offs within the region. The

· store's hours are 9am to 6pm Mon­day through Thursday, and Friday and Saturday, from 9am to 9pm.

Like the Salvation Army and Bib and Tucker, the Service League Shop,

located on Seneca Street, seUs fashionable used clothing, at affor­dable prices. Availability of clothing at the shop is seasonal, so expect to find fall and winter selections through Maldl. ..

and a small amount of new clothing from New York City.

Most of the vintage items come from Rochester, where owner Trish Squires nins the parent store. Other clothing comes from Ithaca residents

Focusing in on video style THE SERVICE LEAGUE SHOP: located on ~neca St. beneath lhe ·

BY DORA VMNEITO John Orentlicher, an experimental

video artist, was recently featured in the BFA Cross Currents Series on Wednesday, October 21. His record as a video. artist includes exhibitions at the University of Michigan, the Museum of Modem Art in Colombia, the Art Institute of Chicago, the Tokyo Video Festval, Hollywood Film/Video Festival, and many other national and international shows. He is currently professor of video research at Syracuse University.

Orentlicher presented three of his videos, "Agri Culture," "The Mass," and "The Seeker" and explained and answered questions about each video.

_He explained that he often takes a phenomenon of culture and lets the viewers shape their meaning and apply it to their own lives. Orentlicher

.. . He often takes a phenomenon of culture and lets the viewers shape the . meaning.

. described his videos as "stylistically unconventional documentaries."

The first video, "Agri Culture," ex­plored the business and technology of farming. Orentlicher explained that he wanted to show the influence of "technology on farming" and how farming has succumbed to the pressures of economics and hi­technology just as the consumer has. .E~g is not a "down-home" fami­ly way of life anymore, but it has evolved into an "agri-business."

Superficially, the tone of this video seemed mocking. Many chuckles were

machinery· salesman proudly explain­ed the "dream tractor." This video was misinterpreted as being mocking while it was meant only to be critical;

_ this was most likely due to an ig­norance on the audien~'s part con­cerning farming. Orentlicher explain­ed that he had a curiosity about the farming industry and wanted to display how "beautiful and interesting it is.,,

The second video, "The Mass," centered around humble figures and the sale at county fairs and flea markets. Again, the subjects seemed absurd and out of touch. However, Orentlicher insisted that he wanted to present the "medieval vs. the technological side and flea-market vs. state-of-the-art.'' This particular video was characteriz.ed by slow motion, which gave it a dream-like quality.

The final video, "The Seekers," dealt with swinging singles and swap­ping clubs. The subjects in this video

. and their "hobby" seemed ludicrous.

This video had an unmistakable con­descending and mocking tone. At various points, the camera person moved and swayed the camera as if the person speaking was boring and unimportant. The camera also mov-

-i so that the person was almost com­i)letely out of the frame.

All three of these videos seemed as if they were ridiculing their subjects. However, the main reason for this

feeling is most likely due to the fact that the subjects are so unconven­tional and bizarre that most people are unfamiliar with -them: They conse­quently received the wrong message. Orentlicher contended that it was not his intention to entertain on all levels, but to deal with the subjects on a "didactic" level.

Currents Series will be Scott McDonald, a film scholar and pro­fessor at Utica College. he will speak on Thursday, November 5, at 8pm, Textor )02.

Women's Community Jluilding:

Donations are accepted at the Ser­vice League Shop, but most clothing is sold in conjunction with the original owners of each piece of clothing. TwO-thirds of the sale goes to the donor, while one-third is donated to charities. Make your way <Rier for a wonderful selection of warin winter sweaters and coats.

After Eden, located on The Com­mons, is for those who wear used clothing more for fashion than the price. The store stocks vintage, military surplus, new wave clothing,

who visit or call the store about some extra clothes they may have. Hats and many accessories are also available. The store is open Monday through Saturday.

Shopping for used clothing doesn't have to be a "clothing taboo." It can prove to be an exciting and different experience. Once you find the right piece of clothing for you, it will be pleasing to discover you won't have to pay top dollar. Explore these second-hand stops here in Ithaca; you'll be surprised to see what you've been missing.

22 THE ITHACAN

Experience leads IC spikers BY JAMIE STATON

This year's volleyball team, as witness to their 35~ record, is loaded with ~ent. Right in the middle of all that talent are the co-captains, Denise Dewey and Cathy Franz.

Out of nearby Spencer-Van Etten High School, Dewey has now been

playing volleyball for 11 years. She was a two year captain and team MVP her )unior and senior years, and has played in the Empire State Games for four years in a row.

Dewey says she loves volleyball and feels that all the action makes it an ex­cellent sport to both watch and play.

Student-Athletes of the Month

BY KEITH KROEHLER Colleen Skelly and Ken Redmore

have been named the Ithaca College STUDENT-Athletes of the Month for October, as selected by the school's Athletic department. Skelly, a partici­pant on both the women's cross coun­try and track teams, is a senior biology major. Redmore, captain of the men's golf team, is in his senior year as an administration of health services

Red.more, who holds a 3.2 GPA, is a manager of the college's campus center building and a member of the Ithaca College Health Administration Club. He also has diversified his sport involvement to include participation in the school's intramural basketball and floor hockey programs.

-Athletes of the Week--

For the second straight week, women's soccer goalie Donna Glitz.er has been selected as the Ithaca College Female Athlete of the Week. Glitz.er posted two shutouts to raise her season school record to 11. The Bombers edged Alfred and Albany State by 1-0 scores improving their mark to I I-3-I . The senior standout started her remarkable streak the previous week in a scoreless tie with Cortland before blanking Hartwick 2-0. Both schools were in the top 10 in Division III. Glitzer has been as

..,..,, dependable as she has been steady having played in every game this season, after playing every minute of every game last year. With a goals against average of 0.49 and a save percentage of .933 it isn't too difficult to determine the source of much of the Bombers' success.

The Bomber football team boosted their record to 4-I Saturday with a 29-0 victory over Buffalo. A key in-

gredient in the win was the running of senior fullback Shawn Huth. The Bombers' leading rusher gained 68 yards on the ground to go with two touchdowns. Huth has now ac­cumulated 426 yards on the season, averaging 4. 7 a carry, and stands just 27 yards short of the 1,000 yard plateau for his career. The team looks for more of the same from Huth throughout the season, as he has always had his best games when they count most.

Sharing the spotlight with Glitzer two weeks ago was cross country star Rich Surace. The Bombers-I runner placed second overall at the Geneseo State Invitational IOK with a time of 33: 11. Surace, a I 986 All America, shattered his last year's tiine by 20 seconds in leading Ithaca to a fourth place finish. Due to fall break and no Ithacan being published last week we would like to notice these winners as well.

weekend. Ithaca came through t,ool play as the number one team after defeating LeMoyne (15-9, 15-6), Elizabethtown (15-13; 15-13), and Ehnira (15-4, 15-5). They ~ed.a bye into the semifmals and were sucressful against Elizabethtown again by a 15-1, 5-15, 15-8 score before falling to state

~&>al Albany in the fmals, 15~, 15-3. The victory over LeMoyne marked the 100th win for Coach Jane Jacobs as volleyball coach at Ithaca. She cited consistent efforts by senior Denise

~ .,>ewey on defense, senior Denise Zieno for hitting and blocking, and junior Dianne Oltz for blocking. Shf also lauded sophomore Kate Thom;: • on offense and sophomore Maria DiAmbrosia on defense for their play in the Elmira win.

On Tuesday night, the team over­~wered Scranton in straight games by scores. of 15-9, 15-11, 15-3. The team's record now stands at 34-6.

J. V. -football

The J. V. football team evened its

record with a 37-12 victory at Buffalo last h1Jay. 1 he oomber:, fell behind 6-3 but scored 19 unanswered points for a 22-6 third quarter lead.

Sophomore James Gibbons (Naugatuck, CI) hit a 28-yard field goal for Ithaca's first points. After a six-yard touchdown run by freshman running back Reginald Bradford put

the Bombers ahead, freshman end Ken Hammel moved into the spotlight. He caught touchdown passes of nine yards from sophomore quarterback Shawn Kriger and 20 yards from Gibbons. 0n the day he

caught five passes for 68 yards to up his team-leading totals to 15 catches for 299 yards,and four touchdowns in four contests. Freshman Bill Santoro scored in the': third quarter on an 18-yard run and freshman back Doug Meagher completed Ithaca's scoring with a ~ne yard plunge in the fou,tth.

The defensive unit played well, forc­ing nine fumbles and recovering four of them while also intercepting a pass.

In her years here at Ithaca College, she has been known for showing her emo­tions on the court. Dewey noted. that in the past, her high level of intensity may have hurt the team. This year, as a captain, she feels it is important for her to be more positive; her effort ap­pears to be a success. For her play against Alfred and Rochester, Dewey earned Ithaca College Female Athlete of the Week award.

According to Franz, the co-captains complement c:ach other well in that Dewey takes a more active leadership ·\ role while Cathy is the silent leader. ·:. "I love setting her," said Franz of Dewey who is one of the better spikers on the squad. ,

Like her co-captain, Cathy Franz :f ·· has some impressive achievements. ~­Out of Eden, New York, she was the ' captain and MVP of her Eden High School team as a senior. She made two all-tournament teams as well as being a Class E-Section Four All Star.

Lonestars falling on difficult times

Lower Buttermilk on Saturday was a scene of much fast and furious rugby as the Lonestars took on a well organized Union College. Fonunate­ly, it was to be a happier day than Oc­tober 7 when the Lonestars' road trip to Syracuse turned sour with a 0-4 loss. Luckily the B-team in swing gave a sturdy perfonnance and managed to pull off a 0-0 draw.

At roughly I :30pm, the Lonestar/Union A-team match com­menced. The atmosphere was ex­tremely bouyant as the number of spectators swelled continually, well in­to the hundreds, and everyone was in high spirits. On the field, the team players were applying themselves whole-heartedly to the game.

The match began without much direction as play shifted from one end of the field to the other until the ball was fed down the Lonestar line and Wes literally burned down the wing. He ran right past the dead ball line, and unfortunately the would-be try was void.

Nevertheless, moments later, the Lonestars ran in two quick tries to have the upper hand at half time. The first of these tries was scored by Steve Zangrey, who continued to make surging runs throughout the game. The second try was run in by Wes, making up for his previous disap­pointment. Both the conversion at­tempts were squandered and the Lonestars led 8-0 at the break.

After half-time, Union exerted more pressure on the Lonestars, but the team rallied and once again, Steve Zangrey further enhanced the team's

. position, running in another excellent try. Soon afterward, the Lonestars gained a five meter scrum from which, in the following pushover, Mark Anderson somewhat angelically squeeud the ball over the line. It was from this try that big Ken Tatovich

kicked the only conversion of the game. The score was now 18-0, a big Lonestar lead.

Union then made a couple of substitutions, which strengthened their line with fresh legs. It was to this ad­vantage, that they ran in their only points of the game: a dodging, weav-ing run past a couple of tackles. The Lonestars had the last play of the game, scoring in the dying minutes to leave with a score of 22-4. Similar to the Lonestars' previous try, the pack worked well on the five meter line .., pushing the opposition back and Eric Ruttatowski fed the ball out to Charles Allen who easily ran in the try.

It now became the B-team's turn to emulate the A-team performance. The Lonestars were extremely anxious to have more action, and as a result the match was a closely fought contest. The game was full of excitement and kept the crowd on their toes. Both sides played attacking football and as a result each team notched up their own fair share of points. Noteable contributers for the Lonestars were Bruce Willis, Matt Cassinaro, William Tumber, and Dave Reilly. Unfor­tunately for the Lonestars, the game was marginally lost with a score of 18-19 and had there been some rather inept kicking, it might have been a dif­ferent story. Full credit should be given to the team effort, it was a most .­entertaining game of Rugby.

Finally, a mention must be made to the masses of alumni who were pre­sent throughout the afternoon and for those who braved play in the old boys match. The game was played in high spirits and all who spectated and par­ticipated had many a laugh, but the outcome did not have any real affect on the price of cheese.

The women's:team will travel to Albany this weekend for a state meet. followed by a trip to Boston on Nov. 7th for ECAC's. Both events will be highly competitjve and serve as a foundation for the next weekend's na­tional qualifier at Saratoga Springs. The National Championships will be held the following week at Hope Col­lege in Michigan. Ware claims that fifth-ranked Rochester will be a team to watch out for. "We'll just have to see.

Tom Knapp was the man of the hour for the Bomber defense. The sophomore, who started his first game only last week against Buffalo, caus­ed and recovered Henry's fumble deep in AIC terr::itory as well as com­ing up with a clutch interception later in the third quarter. "I was told to look for a deep pass by the coaches, and I just was there." Kevin Demer's interception eventually led to IC' s go­ahead touchdown. Daegan Gray once again led Ithaca with 18 tackles, while fellow ILB Joe Marra totaled 12.

IC will travel to Boswell Field to take the Hobart Statesmen this Satur­day. The Statesmen have fell upon hard times after winning their first two games. Hobart has Jost five straight games, hitting rock bottom in last week's 35-0 loss to Canisius. Their top offensive threat is end Frank Fredor­jaka who has 42 receptions for over 400 yards. Although the Statesmen are stumbling, Coach Butterfield is wary of overconfidence on Ithaca's part. "That concerns me more than any thing else. This is the most impor­tant game on their schedule. Our guys might look down their nose, and if we do, we're gonn_a ,be in serious trou­ble." Kickoff is at 1 pm.
