Getting The Bird

SURPRISE, SURPRISE, and early in the morning. Thomas “Tom” McGrath, associate professor of biology walked into his office early one morning and found this unusual version of an inter-office memo on his desk. It could be a project from a student, but McGrath would make no comments on this. The bird is a frigate bird perched on a piece of coral. The container is a well-known piece of lavatory equipment.

Student Gov’t Reverses Vote -
Reinstates Two Ousted Officers

Offers Public Apology To Walls And Mayer
In an unprecedented action, Student Government has reinstated impeached SG President Rosanne Walls and Secretary Allison Mayer.
The action came after SG member Bruce Hurd, speaking of the impeachment proceedings of the week before, called the impeachment an “illegal action.” Hurd, who had voted for the impeachment, termed the action as “not conducted in a manner reflecting credit on Student Government.”
Hurd publicly apologized to Ms. Walls and Ms. Mayer at the meeting and called for Student Government to reinstate the deposed officers and apologize for the manner in which the impeachment was handled.
SG Senator Loren Wolfe said that the impeachment was no mistake, and said that the temporary guidelines under which Student Government has been operating covered the situation.
Wolfe said the impeachment was a legal process. He said “to run things by emotion is a poor way to run any business.” He compared Hurd’s action to “Monday morning quarter-backing,” accusing other members who spoke in favor of reinstatement of feeling sorry for the impeached officers.
Ms. Walls, asked to speak before the SG body, had a letter read to the group. The letter, printed in the April 8 issue of The Crier, stated her defense, answering the charges made at the impeachment proceedings.
The letter was read by Dave Ludwig, who had read the impeachment charges against Ms. Walls and Ms. Mayer. Ludwig was elected president by SG to replace Ms. Walls. Ludwig commented that he was beginning to know how Ms. Walls felt during the impeachment proceedings the week before.
Blane Bacon stated that
Third Sexism Workshop Planned
Another Institutional Sexism Workshop is going to be conducted, Wednesday and Thursday, May 5 and 6 from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily, at School III, Room 202.
This will be the third such workshop this semester. Similar workshops were held in January and March and were termed “overwhelmingly successful.”
The workshop will deal with institutional sexism at CCC as it exists in policies, practices, prejudices, punishments, rewards and behaviors.
All faculty and staff are welcome at the workshop being coordinated by Ron Hofsess and Delyte Frost.
the impeachment should not have been handled like a “money request” The procedure, he said, was “really a disgrace,” and added that “we have learned something from this. I think the procedure was wrong.”
Asking advice about legality of Dr. Robert T. Giuf-frida, the group was told that since they did not elect the officers, they could not unseat them under the present circumstances. Dr. Giuffrida said they could give a vote of no confidence, but the officers had been given no time to prepare a defense, Student Government had acted hastily. He suggested that a vote be made to return the impeached officers to their positions and vote a return to “status quo,” the
position Student Government was in before the impeachment action.
Hurd then motioned that Student Government be returned to the position it was in as of April 1, and that the officers be returned to office. The motion was seconded and carried by a vote of five to one.
Student Government also agreed to make a public apology to the reinstated officers. The apology will be published in The Crier, on recommendation of SG Senator Bruce Hurd.
Wolfe, commenting on the current legal standing of Student Government while operating under guidelines, moved that activities be suspended while the new constitution was studied and accepted.
LOIS STALVEY ON CAMPUS
Lois Stalvey, author of Education of a WASP (see page 4), will be in Coming and on campus Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, April 17, 18 and 19. Her son, Spike, will accompany her.
Ron Hofsess,	rac-
ism/ sexism counselor, describes Stalvey as “an excellent resource as a white who has become aware of her own racist conditioning and the effect of such conditioning on	other
whites and Third World People.”
The main event open to students and the general public will be a convocation Wednesday, April 28,
at 1:30 p.m. in the Main Dining Room of the Commons. Sta Ivey’s topic will be “White Racism in Education.” A question and answer period will follow at 2:30 pm.
Other activities planned for Stalvey’s three day stay are as follows:
April 27 A meeting with Coming area school officials.
April 28 - 8:55 - 9:30 Millie’s Comer radio program on radio station WCLI.
April 29 - 9:30 - 11:30 Meeting with Communications Division.
11:30 - 1:30 Meeting with the Black Cultural Center.
NI6HI CLUB BRINGS PACKED HOUSE
(More Pictures Pages 6 & 7.)
Starting at seven and lasting until two in the morning, ICC’s Spring Night Club packed the Main Dining Room of the Commons last Saturday evening.
The standing room only crowd of students, faculty and guests enjoyed the performances of Airway, a local band from Coming, Fate, a rock band from New England, and piano-playing comedian John Valby, whose off-color humor seemed to grab the audience and hold them.
The Night Club, planned and executed by ICC President Bill White and his staff, turned out to be just
and Stories on
that — a night club. All through the evening the guests seemed to be enjoying themselves and the entertainment.
It was a well-planned and well-executed happening and nothing went wrong. The only complaint heard was the lack of room for all the guests that showed up for the event. This turned out to be a minor complaint as the evening event wore on and people began to relax and enjoy themselves.
Bill White and the staff of ICC can be proud of the job they did in producing the Spring Night Club.
2 THE CRIER, THURSDAY, APRIL 15,1976
Our Side:
A Couple of Items
Student Government
Last week The Crier set its editorial policy against Student Government’s method of impeaching its president and secretary.
We termed the action “unlawful and illegal” because Student Government did not give the two officers sufficient time to answer the charges placed against them. We said that we considered Student Government to be an unlawful governing body on campus and that we would not recognize them or their actions.
We meant every word of it. It wasn’t an easy decision to make. Student Government has the power to freeze our budget and stop official publication of The Crier. But we had no choice if we were to remain an honest newspaper. We were ready to fight this issue down to the last comma and period, even if it meant making The Crier a mimeographed underground newspaper.
But Student Government beat us to the punch.
In the person of Bruce Hurd, Student Government moved for and approved reinstatement of the two officers, admitting that the method of impeachment was illegal and offering public apology.
We would like to take credit, but we can’t. Members of Student Government never knew we were going to take that stand. The action was taken before The Crier reached Student Government. The idea and action for reinstatement and apology was all theirs.
Admitting a mistake and apologizing in public is never easy. It was a hard decision for them to make. But they made it. We congratulate Bruce Hurd and Student Government — some people with a lot of guts.
We withdraw our editorial of last week. We can support people like Bruce Hurd.
Come, Be Enlightened
The administration has termed the past sexism workshops as “overwhelmingly successful.” While this may be true for the few people who attended, they cannot be called such for the institution at large. The main reason being the lack of participation.
The Crier would like to urge more faculty and staff, especially division heads and people in key positions, to attend the May 5 and 6 workshop.
Institutional sexism cannot be counter-acted until the core of the college becomes involved in the process.

Jim Kull is our Art Director and cartoonist. And I owe him an apology.
Last week when I was putting the Crier together, I found that the cartoon he drew for us no longer fit the situation. I wanted another one about Student Government.
But Jim had already
Sometimes I wonder if anybody at CCC really cares about the college. If they do, they certainly have strange, and apparently secret, ways of showing it.
Out of about 2000 students enrolled here only 108 voted at the last Student Government elections. No wonder The Government has problems.
One might say, “Yes, but it wasn’t publicized.” Unfortunately this is very true. Student Government did not publicize the elec-

Well now, how am I going to start this? The academic standards committee has a problem and may soon develop an inferiority complex. Whenever Dean Robert A. Chapman wishes to express any ideas he has to the committee, he sends an impersonal memo or directive to the committee from the standpoint of an outsider — when he is supposed to be just as much a member as anyone else on the committee. He addresses the committee as “your committee,” and he seldom shows for the meetings which he is expected to attend as a full and responsible member of the group. Some other members of this group could probably think of things that they would rather do instead of attend these meetings, but they do attend them.

That cartoon looked, as Jim so aptly put it, “like it was drawn by a two-year-old.”
That wasn’t bad enough --
I put that thing under Jim’s name. Unforgivable — but I hope he does forgive me -- we need his talents around here.
The original artwork was Jim’s, but the crude tracing was all mine, and I’m not bragging.
Sorry about that, Jim.

tions.
The Elections were held in the lobby of the Commons, however, a place where at least 90 per cent of the student body passes every day. At this election less than 10 per cent of these responsible people stopped and gave their precious time to our governing body.
If you don’t care why should Student Government. Maybe they don’t. Maybe that’s why they have been having so much trouble functioning lately.
Another point, why should you care where your Activities Fee goes? The Student Government Budget Committee approves all the activities’ budgets.
But that’s okay, it’s only your money. It’s only money.
Until you get involved, personally, in our government you can’t expect it to represent your interests.
But then, judging from the attendance at convocations and club meetings, does anyone on campus have any interests?
Don't Squeeze The Sharman

Academic Standards Committee Developing Inferiority Complex
in problem would have to be lack of communication. This was exposed in the double writing of the policy of “academic motivation,” first by the sub-committee started one month a-go based on a student’s proposal last fall, and the second by Dean Chapman, which was submitted one day prior to the Academic Standards Committee meeting last week.
Because of Dean Chapman’s actions and lack of action the Academic Stand-
ards committee is starting to ask questions. Why is the Academic Standards Committee in existence? If Dean Chapman can make all of the “proper” decisions on his own without ever consulting the main body of the committee why bother with a committee? Dean Chapman seems to regard the Academic Standards Committee as a child incapable of making decisions and not important enough to deserve common courtesy and respect.

THE CRIER, THURSDAY, APRIL 15,1976 3
By DAVE MIKEL
The Race Is Getting Weird
The computers were wrong. Last Tuesday, I sat up watching the returns from the New York and Wisconsin primaries, and after listening to Walter Cronkite tell us that Morris Udall was going to win, I went to bed elated. Next morning, the first thing I heard on the radio was that the computers had made a mistake. That Bible thumping, two-bit, anti-politician with the mouthful of teeth had done it a-gain.
But, as a right-wing extremist friend pointed out, at least I was happy for a few hours. The final tally was; Udall, 36 percent and the peanut farmer, 37 percent. The New York primary was won by that idiot conservative, Scoop Jack-son (he’s decided to call himself liberal). Although the arrogant candidate was predicting a landslide victory, he didn’t get it, Udall took the wind out of his sails.
This race is definitely getting weird. I don’t see any way that Carter can get the delegates to win on the first ballot, and after that you’ll see all hell break loose. All kinds of strange people will be nominating themselves, and from this chaos, Humphrey hopes to emerge as the nominee.
But there are signs that HHH may be changing his strategy. He’s getting itchy, so rather than wait for the nomination to come from the floor of the convention, he may decide to enter some of the late primaries.
I’m just going to set back and wait. I would dearly love to see the delegates run amuck at the convention. Who knows may be even Gene McCarthy could get it. McCarthy in ’76.
The Vikin/Vockroth Debate:
Vockroth Says Stereotyping Offensive For Both Sides
I would not want to turn the Crier into a forum for faculty debate, but feel that Joe Vikin’s letter in the April 1st issue calls for a response.
Whatever we might consider characteristics of the American Indian stereotype, most certainly in-decisiveness is not among them, contrary to Joe’s allegation. This is precisely why this ethnic group was chosen for the cartoon on decision-making, as the essential element of this type of humor is its incongruity, of which I am a member, and indeed we often act as depicted.
It is interesting to note, r however, that while Joe objects to the stereotyping of Indians as indecisive he suggests that designating white males as such would be less offensive! Why are some stereotypes more acceptable than others?
Joe also cites research showing women as constituting 47.06 per cent of the U.S. population, making them eligible for the definition as a minority. According to the Statistical Abstracts of the United States, 1975, the 1974 population of the U.S. consisted of 102.9 million males and 108.4 million females, mak-
ing this sex a 51.3 per cent majority.
I see no reason, however, to associate the degree of suffering or injustice imposed upon an individual with population percentages, and find particularly inappropriate the currently popular premise that discrimination is justified provided we periodically alternate victims.

Likes Vikin
Gentlemen:
I’ve read with great interest the column by Joe Vikin, “Exploring Science.” The two recent articles, “Do We Need Food Additives” and “Who Needs Organic Chemistry?” have given me a new perspective of science. Not only have I found these articles to be informative, but also very thought provoking.
I hope that you will continue to publish articles such as those mentioned previously, as I will continue to look forward to reading your every publication of such.

Asks 'Politics '76' Writer To Justify Accusations On Clubs
To Dave Mikel, the self-proclaimed traditionalist:
In reference to your Politics ’76 editorial on Student Government, I ask you for the justification behind your editorial accusations which are as follows:
(1) The Vet’s Club and the Tech Club are special interest groups that are trying to build a power bloc to protect their organizations at the expense of the rest of the student body.
(2) This is the second time the Tech Club has tried to climb to power and at present it looks like they are succeeding.
(3) Tech Club leadership is incredibly naive. They also display a frightening uncaring attitude for the total concerns of the student population. Perhaps as we finish up this semester they will develop more maturity and responsibility.
While on the subject of maturity and responsibil-
ity, your position as a Crier reporter requires both and at this point I question if you have either of these qualities. Your criticism on the conduct of the Student Government Senate is well founded but your biased attack on the Vet’s Club, Tech Club and Tech Club leadership was not only malicious but totally unjustified
Both of these fine organizations have no reason to protect themselves and have nothing to gain in any power struggle. Vet’s Club and Tech Club both sponsor scholarships for needy students on campus. They help in any campus activity they can and make many sacrifices to help others. The Vet’s Club also sponsors the Red Cross Blood Drive on campus. I ask you to name any other two clubs on campus that do more.
Dave base your criticism on facts not on prejud-
ices. As a Student Government senator who belongs to both of these fine clubs, I can state that neither the Vet’s Club or the Tech Club had any part in the impeachment proceedings.
Yes, Dave, I am a Student Government Senator and I did vote in favor of the impeachments. I was wrong and I publicly admit so and I have done what I can do to correct this injustice. I stand without defense for my conduct at the April 1 Student Government meeting.
All I ask is that you confine your criticism to those of us that deserve it. Do not unjustly accuse any of the fine organizations on campus of wrongdoing simply because they have Student Government Senators for members.
Bruce W. Hurd Senator, Student Government
Calls Students 6Idealistic Pansies9
The students of Corning Community College are a bunch of idealistic pansies. I think that if a secretarial student really wanted to be a secretary, that she would be pounding the door of Student Government to gain experience as a secretary in Student Government. This is not the case. There is not one secretarial student involved with Student Government.
The same goes with the Accounting Department. If I was an accounting student wanted experience in keeping neat, accurate records, Student Government would be an ideal area in which to obtain this experience. The accounting student is more on receiving good grades and recognition by his professor or instructor. The rewards and experience of Treasurer of Student Gov-
On fPolitics ’76’
Observing the characteristics of “Politics "76” in the context of venereal disease (often referred to as a social affliction); the principles of “lesser of two evils” is more lethal than ludicrous! In either case, Id rather defer sexual intercourse than get diseased by perilous politicians.
The essence of freedom is to be mutual, and the lesser cannot produce anything greater than itself.

ernment is only a myth in their fantasy world ideologies. To the accounting students, I say that your rewards are nothing but grades decided by your professors, which isn’t a hell of a lot.
When an industry is looking for a man to hold management position in his company, education in management means very little to him. What your boss wants to see is experience and leadership capabilities. What better experience can you offer than being president or vice president in Student Government or other campus affairs.
Advertising Manager Sought
The Crier is seeking a person for the Advertising Manager’s position. The Advertising Manager will procure ads from local stores and businesses in the Steuben, Schuyler and Chemung counties. He or she will be paid on a commission basis in a manner and at a rate schedule decided by the Business Manager and approved by the Editor-in-Chief.
For further information contact the Crier office, Trailer #4, behind the Commons, or call 962-9339.
The students of Corning Community College resent getting involved in those aspects of Student Government and other organizations that allow them to gain experience in leadership and management. I personally conclude that you, as a student, are not worth holding positions that you are working to obtain.
My final blame is on the faculty and administration of the college. As professors and instructors of this college, you have not illustrated the importance of experience. You avoid importance of experience. You avoid encouragement to participate in those areas on campus in which students can obtain valuable experience. The faculty of Corning Community College are so power oriented, or afraid of superiors being against their actions that they rob their students of this vital experience.
The difference between my getting involved and your students getting involved is that my Technology Advisors not only take the time to realize the value of experience but orient students to its importance. It is to bad that students do not receive this type of leadership in their own departments, and that the advisors in our department have to be hurt for realizing this importance.

THE CROWDED FINGER LAKES
By JOHN STEVENSON JR.
Now that spring is officially here, there are those of us who will be looking forward to the warm weather and relaxing days spent at the cottage. For those of us who do own cottages on any one of the numerous area lakes, there will be plenty of fishing, swimming and boating ahead, not to mention just sitting back and enjoying the solitude.
Yet what about the majority of residents who are not fortunate enough to own cottages on these lakes? It seems for them it is just too bad! Unless they can find a cottage to rent, which requires money and a bit of luck, or unless they are satisfied with the crowded, littered and often polluted public beaches, they are out of luck.
Our most serene and beautiful waters, the Finger Lakes, are a good example of this situation.
Their shores are so crowded with private cottages that he who does not own land on their shores cannot really enjoy them. Unless one's grandfather had money enough to buy waterfront property, one might as well invest in a swimming pool. The State of New York should have retained more land around these lakes as parks and reserves before parcelling this land to individuals and allowing such overdevelopment. Rightfully, these waters should be open for the enjoyment of all, and yet the shortsightedness of our forefathers has prevented this. Accordingly, the vast majority of area residents are not able to enjoy their lakes, and yet what can be done today?
There is no easy answer
Commercials:
The Real America
A REVIEW OF JEAN SHEPHERD
By DAVE SHARMAN
Jean Shepherd (an author; a radio, television, and campus humorist, a Broadway performer; and a voice man for television commercials) believes commercials reflect the “real” America.
Shepherd appeared at CCC a week ago and totally destroyed the audience.
Speaking on commercials, he pointed out the surrealism of their content. His illustrations included the “Tidy Bowl” commercial in which a lady looks in a toilet and sees a little man yachting in her toilet and isn’t surprised.
He went on to tell about being tricked by Little Orphan Annie into drinking Ovaltine. He spoke about his family. He commented on one of CCC’s wandering dogs. But most of all he made everyone laugh.
I could continue expressing my delight in seeing
to this question, though we might learn a thing or two from the British.
In developing their waters for recreational use, they have introduced a type of zoning and established a strip of public land around lakes to be used and enjoyed by all as a park. This land, usually well shaded and well kept, suffers less from the noise, crowds and litter that characterize so many public waterfronts in America, since the people are not all jammed together. Private landowning is permitted outside these perimeters.
There are Environmental benefits to this system, also. Since British shorelines remain less disfigured by cottages, they suffer less from improper drainage, sewage pollution and the erosion that occurs when man destroys vegetation and alters the land. Observing the many private structures perched on the shorelines of Seneca and Cayuga Lakes, one must wonder at what cost to the lakes they were built.
Of course, to re-develop the finger lakes in such a manner would be a costly and involved operation, not to mention the heated arguments that would ensue. To be sure, no thorough studies have been made on the subject and no one is certain of what is involved. In any case, at this point in time it may be all academic.
Yet before dismissing the issue altogether, we might give a little thought to future generations and indeed, to the futures of the lakes themselves. Perhaps more is at stake here than the enjoyment of solitude.
band forms in this area that is a step above all the rest. The Elvira Marphite Blues Band is one such band.
Elvira Marphite consists of six people. Steve Peao, Jim Murphy, and Mary Cel-li do the guitar work, with Peao and Murphy handling most of the leads. Bob Sem-entelli and Tere Sommers, bass and drums respectively, make up a strong rhythm section. Last, and certainly not least, is Tom Gonta who plays electric piano. A versatile unit, these six play in many different combinations throughout their act.
At the Student Government keg, the band had trouble warming up. P.A. difficulties, bad acoustics, and, at the beginning, the lack of a responsive crowd plagued the band. However, after a few songs, they began to cook.
One of the high points of Elvira Marphite’s show is their rendition of “A Memory of Elizabeth Reed,” an Allman Brothers classic. In this instrumental we get a chance to see each member of the band step out. There is a fine contrast be-
Book Review:
tween the three guitarists in the band. Celli’s solo is laid in back and serene. Murphy is a speedy guitarist; his leads assault you. Then Peao’s seasoned guitar comes into light. Peao has command of his music. His playing dips, dives and finally rises to a climax. The contrast between Peao’s lead style and Murphy’s lead style gives the band a healthy balance.
Gonta's keyboard work provides some fine background. He takes stabs and
chops at the keys and then he flows up and down the keyboard. Sementelli goes into a good bass solo which is complimented by Sommers’ drumming. This rhythm section is a winning combination. They do not only provide background, but they do some very interesting things.
The last solo is a great drum solo done by Sommers. “Elizabeth Reed” is a fine song when the All-mans do it and Elvira Marphite adds some very nice personal touches.
Vocals are a weak point in many bands. Such is not the case with Elvira Marphite. There are many fine harmonies throughout the
set. In an original song written by Peao, “Just Round The Bend,” Peao sings leads while Celli, Sementelli and Sommers supply beautiful harmonies. Peao’s voice is very powerful and he proves it again with the vocals from “Spanish Johnny,” a Bruce Springsteen song. Celli has a chance to step out in a low-down blues number, “Fever.” Celli has a low, husky voice. In “Fever” she gets the message a-cross well;
In a review there will always be things overlooked or differences of opinion. For the few things I’ve been able to hit upon, many important things have been left out. Perhaps you shouldn’t agree so easily when I say that Elvira Marphite is the finest band in these parts? Or when I say that they have more class than the other bands in the area? Or even when I say that the kind of music they play is better than the usual, typical rock and roll that is being played by most bands?
Maybe you should see Elvira Marphite sometime and decide for yourself. It’s worth it

Why would anyone wish to know “very much less” about anything, specifically about the racial problems in this country? Because, says Lois Mark Stalvey, by knowing less we can avoid having to discover that it is naive to believe “in Happy Endings” and to believe that in this society “anything was possible if you tried hard enough, long enough.”
In 1960, Lois Stalvey, a young, middle-class, white housewife, ignorant and maybe indifferent about the extent of white prejudice, begins a series of “lessons” in humanity, which by 1968 have turned her into a bitter, pessimistic woman who contemplates the possibility of taking her family to Africa in order to “flee to a country immune to the tempting and contagious disease of white superiority.”
Stalvey’s book. The Education of a WASP, which records her personal experiences over the course of eight years, is a serious, candid, often poignant analysis of racial attitudes and of the formidable inequities and injustices which blacks must tolerate. She recalls, for example, her efforts to locate a larger home for a black surgeon in her own middle-class Omaha suburb. Not only is she unable to find a place for him and his family, but she also discovers the bigotry of the neighborhood people who call themselves her friends. Eventually her husband gets demoted and transferred to Philadelphia because his office disapproves of his wife’s activities.
In Philadelphia Stal-vey’s “education” continues, right through the civil rights clashes of the past decade. By 1968 She has reached the conclusion that “white neurotic need was the only logical explanation I had ever found for the gross stupidity of white hatred. Facts . were useless. Logic was power-
less against deep unconscious fantasy needs that converted so easily into unreasoning terror.”
In 1970, one critic of her book wrote, ‘What is most disturbing about this book is the thought that not nearly enough people are going to read it — especially those for whom it could have the greatest impact.” Lois Mark Stalvey and her 20-year-old son Spike
will be on Campus April 27-29 meeting with groups from the faculty,' administration and student body.
Their convocation topic will be “White Racism in Education.” The convocation will be held Wednesday, April 28 at 1:30 p.m. in the main dining room of the Commons.
There will be a question and answer session after their speech presentation.

Nature Center Opens Fund Drive
Seeks Volunteers and Members
The Spencer Crest Nature Center, Inc., is initiating a fund and volunteer job drive to develop the Nature Center on Coming Community College campus into a nature facility for all area residents to use and enjoy.
The Nature Center, a nonprofit organization, in cooperation with Corning Community College, is also initiating an annual membership drive for students, family, and individual charter members. Also included in the membership charter will be supporting, sustaining and patron memberships.
The Center is a 200-acre wooded tract adjacent to CCC campus. The ecological lands were first set aside for field study in the physical and biological sciences in 1963. The Center presently contains three miles of trails, two ponds --seven acres and four acres in area, meandering streams, observation areas, outdoor lecture areas, and animal feeding stations. There are also wood lots and meadows in various stages of development from young to mature.
In 1974, the college and Coming Rotary decided to expand this facility. Corning Glass Works donated 100 acres of land adjacent to the college lands, and Rotary provided seed mon-
ey, professional assistance, legal aid and genuine expertise to help establish the Spencer Crest Nature Center Inc.
Coming Community College has set aside for ecological study all the lands excluding property on which there are present or future buildings. The college has provided a budget and release time for Professors John Wills and John Brennan to oversee the development of the outdoor education and recreation facility.
The land devoted to the nature center is unique. It exists at a site in New York State where the Zone B Forest with dominant oak, hickory and hemlock stands intersects with the Zone C forest with dominant beech, birch and maple stands. This union, coupled with the 1700-foot elevation, presents a diverse and exciting area.
The site provides living requirements for many different types of plant and animal life. John Weeks, a nationally known consultant in the development of nature centers, has evaluated the present holdings and future plans and is enthusiastic about the opportunities for development.
Future proposals for the center include outdoor lecture areas, observation towers,	photography
Claypool Wins Tech Club Presidency
Mark Claypool has been voted in as the new president of the CCC Tech Club. Claypool, succeeding outgoing president Bruce Schoonover, will take office at the end of the spring semester.
The new vice president chosen at the April 7 elections will be Wade Chilson. Other offices filled were Larry Crandall to Secretary and Dave Cary to Treasurer.
Iced Tea At Coffee Shop
In other business the Tech Club voted to obtain thermos equipment to supply the patrons of the Tech Club Coffee Shop with iced tea. Manager of the coffee shop has been Larry Crandall, recently elected secretary of the Tech Club.
The Tech Club Coffee Shop is located in the basement of the Nursing Building.
Graduating Class Should Be Measured NOW For Their Caps and Gowns
The College Book Store has requested that students who are graduating this spring should come into the store and be measured for their caps and gown NOW.
Book Store Manager Margaret Blackman told The Crier that students should come in before the April (Easter) break. The rental company that supplies the caps and gowns
asks for five to six weeks to select sizes and pack them for shipping.
Late requests could cause delays because many other colleges have graduations the same day as CCC. Mrs. Blackman said that orders for caps and gowns would be taken as late as possible, but to avoid disappointment they should be fitted as soon as possible.

blinds, an enclosed ornithological observation lab, and a natural history museum and educational center. Also on the agenda of future plans are picnic areas, nature trails, a weather station and different types of plant and flower gardens.
The Nature Center is designed for use by individuals or groups from the community. A calendar of events, including special topics of interest, will be pub-
lished periodically.
The Center has been established as a place where people interested in the natural world can observe it in a peaceful manner. Because of this, hunting, fishing, motorized vehicles of any type, fires, and any activity that would disturb this environment will be discouraged.
In the beginning stages of the Nature Center, public interest and support is needed and that support
can be manifested in cash contributions and in volunteer jobs. Talent and energy is needed to make the project a success, and in supporting our natural heritage.
Contributions to the Spencer Crest Nature Center are tax deductible. Donations should be made by check and made payable to: Spencer Crest Nature Center, Inc., P.O. Box 22, Corning, New York 14830.
An Interview With Alli Mayer
By DAVE SHARMAN
As you all know, Rosanne Walls and Allison Mayer were impeached two weeks ago. Since this impeachment was illegal, Student Government was kind enough to reinstate both Alli and Rosanne last week.
I had planned to interview both Rosanne and Alii, but due to some unex-
pected problems I could only interview Alli.
The first part of the interview dealt with validity of the charges.
Alli said that none of the charges were acceptable. She went on to say that is it not the secretary’s job to hunt for people who were absent from meetings to give them the minutes.
Two-Bit Players To Present Double Bill
By SANDIE ELDRED
Rehearsals for the Two Bit Players’ final theater production have begun. Two British comedies will be presented, “The Real Inspector Hound” and “Box and Cox.” All performances will be on May 5, 6 and 7 at 8 p.m. in the Science Amphitheatre.
“The Real Inspector Hound” is a product of the Theatre of the Absurd and was written by Tom Stoppard. It was first performed in London in 1972. The setting is a theater with

two critics viewing ad Agatha Christie-style play. As the play progresses the critics and actors begin to switch roles.
The cast of ‘The Real Inspector Hound” is as follows: Brad Fullagar as Moon; John Orser as Bird-foot; Kenneth Regan as Simon; Barb Nelson as Felicity; Tom Michaels as Magnus and Ed Tangorre as Inspector Hound. Tom McGrath is the director.
“Box and Cox” first appeared in London in 1842. A Gilbert and Sullivan operetta was recently adapted from the original. “Box and Cox” is about a rooming house in which the lady owner rents the same room to two men, one in the day and one at night, without their knowledge.
Bill Gonta and Tim Wagstaff play Box and Cox, the boarders. Jacqui appears as Mrs. Bouncer, the owner of the rooming house.

Have. A
Happy Easter

Regarding the issue of insincerity Alli said that she has worked hard and put in several hours of work into Student Government.
The second part of the interview dealt with the legality of the impeachment.
Alli stated that since there was no constitution and since two public warnings are mandatory before an impeachment, the impeachment was totally illegal.
Part three dealt with their reinstatement
According to Alli, she wants to get the pay that she deserves. She is also unsure if Blane Bacon could do a good job being both secretary and Vice President But one of the things that bothers Alli (and me) very much is that the impeachment got rid of both females in student government that have voting power. If they were not reinstated, the executive board would be made up entirely of white male veterans running an organization made up of only white males.
The fourth part of the interview dealt with the future of the impeachment.
Alli believes that it will be brought up again because of Loren Wolfe. She says that Wolfe is seeking personal power. She is unsure if another impeachment would be successful.
The final part of the interview dealt with next semester.
Alli will not rim for office and Rosanne will not be here. Alli decided not to run because she will be too busy, not because she got impeached. She hopes that Loren Wolfe doesn’t get the power next semester that he is seeking for now.
One good thing brought out by this scandal is that Loren Wolfe was found out. Hopefully his craving for power won’t be fulfilled.
6 THE CRIER, THURSDAY, APRIL 15,1976
JOHN VALBY, billed as “educated in classical music and reared in dirt,” regales his audience with wild songs and excellent piano playing.

Night Club Plays To A Packed House

FATE, billed as New England’s No. 1 Rock Band, features Paul Lirange as Lead singer and guitar, Steve Freeland on vocals, guitar and bass, George Wallace on Keyboard bass, vocals, and Bill Capone on Drums.

THE CRIER, THURSDAY, APRIL 15,1976 7
Airway, Valby, Fate Capture Audience
The Entertainment
The Workers:
ICC, Student Run Business, Security
It started out slow, with people drifting in about seven. By nine the place was alive with people enjoying themselves.
Airway Amazing
The first entertainment was the Airway band.
We termed Airway as good and loud — but mostly good. Being a member of the older generation didn’t stop me from enjoying the solid musicianship of the local rock band.
Lead singer Ray Schmar-der has a good strong voice
— I’d like to hear him sometime without the amplifiers. Keyboard artist Chris Halstead — a wild man on the keys -- backed him up with a good voice.
And then the band did “Touch Me,” and Schmar-der’s clear, strong voice put it across — backed up perfectly by the voices of Halstead and guitarist Jim Kosty. Drummer Tom Dowd plays like a madman
— and maintains a good steady beat.
Schmarder’s rendition of “One Is A Lonely Number” was as close to magnificent as I’ve heard in a long time. His voice, fine enough for any band, is equal to any I’ve heard.
The guitar work of Sch-marder and Kosty, excellent in solos, doubles in quality when they team up, and they play a wild duet. Kosty on solo plays like a trouper. He is an accomplished guitarist.
Fate is “Great”
The second bright piece of entertainment was Fate, rightly billed as “New England’s Number One Rock Band.” With Paul Lirange doing vocals and guitar, Steve Freeland on vocals, guitar and bass, George Wallace on keyboards, bass and vocals and Bill Capone on drums, Fate presented an excellent and well-done show. Keyboard artist Wallace is also writer and arranger for the band.
Lirange as lead guitar has a fine mellow voice on ballads, and it is strong enough to fill the room with his rock melodies. The band keeps a good rhythm and a beat that makes you want to move. It’s wild at times, and easy to listen to. The man on the keyboard is great -- a master at his craft.
Lirange’s clear voice, backed up by the voices of guitarist Freeland and keyboard man Wallace all add
up to a smooth performance. On “Suzie Girl” Lirange gives a fine performance on a good song, backed up by a well rehearsed band. The keyboard is right in there, and there is an excellent beat from the drums.
Fate played “Jessica,” an Allman Brothers song, that showed the band’s versatility and accomplishments. There is good smooth work in the Fate performances. Well done would be the very least you could say about them. The most you could would be great.
Valby Victorious
John Valby, billed as the man “reared in classical piano and cultured in dirt,” was just that.
His piano playing is excellent, and ranges all the way from classical to ragtime and Dixie and back a-gain. Hearing him play rags brings to mind the playing of the music from “The Sting,” but Valby does it better.
Then came his theme, Philosophical Bull - . He managed to work in quite a few names from CCC: there was a joke, not too clean, about Frederick and Maloney, and an especially funny bit about Doctor Giuffrida doing unmentionable things in French and Spanish.
He did a version of “Splish Splash” in good dixieland style, again showing his excellent piano works.
Valby is a crowd pleas-er, and his audience approved of the entertainment he brought them. He finished up his first part of the show with a straight, believe it or not, version of the Mickey Mouse Club song — complete with voices.
Valby appeared on stage ready to go in a white suit, oversized blue and white polka-dot tie, and a black derby. The derby seems to be his trademark.
Valby later said he learned classical piano when he was young. When complimented on his ragtime piano, Valby said he would like to do more, but ragtime was written when the pace was slower. If he played more now, his audience would lose interest.
The entertainment for the Night Club fit the theme of “Night Club” very well. The three sections of entertainment all did their best to make it the success it was.
The ICC Spring Night Club, termed a complete success, packed the main dining room of the Commons. It was a case of Standing Room Only.
The architect of the Night Club was Bill White, president of ICC, and a hard-working crew from the ICC staff.
Besides White, there was Steve Peet, Kathy Wenck, Cindee Frederick, Roger Williams, Bruce Hurd, Sue Cash, Dave Neason, Julie Snyder, and Dr. Robert Giuffrida.
White told The Crier that he would like to say thanks to everyone who helped out. He said he really ap-
preciates everyone’s effort.
Working hard at the Night Club itself was the Student Rim Business People, who made the bar at the Night Club a success. Bartenders John Diveris, Donald Doland and Marc Buchanan did a professional job of keeping the customers served. SRB caters to most parties on campus, and at the Night Club they showed how a busy bar should be run.
And what’s a Night Club without a bouncer? (That was a joke, friends.) Security is required at all functions serving alcohol on campus. Ably manned by Marge Emmons, Harriett
Graham, Mike Messina, Dave Krolak and Malene White, they showed just how such operations should be handled. They were unobtrusive and helpful.
Security was provided from the Criminal Justice practicum, and there was one paid security person. The rest were mostly volunteers who wanted to help.
The nice thing about the Night Club was that they weren’t called on as bouncers. There was no need. It was a social event, not a fall-out.
AN EVENING OF ENJOYMENT as Crier associate editor Dave Sharman takes time out from his many duties on the Crier staff. Rebecca Allen was escorted to the Night Club by Sharman.
Impressions and Highlights
The Managing Editor of The Crier almost lost an arm when she tried to get my notes away from me.
Ran into Dana Keeler about 10:30, drinking ginger ale — he said.
A member of security showed up in what he called his Dick Tracy Hat.
Robbin Warner came in, pretty as ever, wearing a beautiful two-piece gown, white trimmed with gold brocade. She said her mother bought it for her in Greece.
And best of all, my photographers were there taking pictures.
THE EVENING STARTS with the opening of the bar at eight. The bartenders from Stu dent Run Business, from left, Donald Doland and John Diveris. Not shown is bartender Mark Buchanan. Dr. Giuffrida makes it to the bar first, closely followed by Crier Editor Gene Mullen, second from right.
The Guests:
The ICC Spring Night Club was more than a success. Playing to a packed house, the entertainers did what they were expected to do, and they did it well.
The audience enjoyed it and seemed to be having a good time. Taking notes during the evening, I managed to come up with a few observations of the happy patrons.
When the dancing started — about nine — Blane Bacon was up there — sizzling as never before.
Vets Club President Dana Keeler showed up wearing a turtle neck — and
brown blue jeans.
Tim Wagstaff came in white tie and tails — without the white tie. I guess he didn’t want to appear TOO formal. He wore white sneakers to make up for the lack of a white tie.
During the Valby performance, this reporter was asked to take down the words to some of the “better” songs. This reporter firmly answered, “I don’t write that sort of tiling! ”
Jerry Thomas was seen waving a Valby poster with a red ribbon tied a-round it and saying, “I’ve finally graduated!”

Useless Information
Compiled By GENE MULLEN
Late, Late, Late, Late, Late, Late Late, Late, Late, Late, Late, Late, Late Movie Department
Since my second favorite pastime is sitting up nights watching the late movies on TV, it seems reasonable that one of these Useless Information columns should cover the Late Show, and even the Late, Late, Late, Late Show.
So for the past few weeks of watching these epics from Tinsel Town, I have been taking notes, and, lo and behold, managed to come up with a series of useless questions. Unfortunately, the answers are just as useless, which is why this column is called Useless Information. So here, for all the old movie fans and fans of old movies, are the questions:
One. Many movies ran in series. How many movies were in the Tarzan series that starred Johnny Weismuller?
Two: In the movie series about Dashiell Hammett’s The Thin Man, who played the Thin Man’s wife, Nora?
Three: In the 1939 movie, “The Hound of the Basker-villes,” who played Dr. Watson?
Four: Who played the part of Duke Mantee in “The Petrified Forest?”
Five: Who played John Wayne’s wife in “Rio Grande?”
Six: Back to Tarzan. Who first played Tarzan in the Movies?
Seven: For all you children, who played the wicked witch in “The Wizard of Oz?”
Eight: Going way back to the Thirties, What was the name of the group John Wayne belonged to in a series of Saturday afternoon westerns he made?
Nine: Who played opposite Clark Gable in “San Francisco?”
Ten: More for us children. Who is the voice of Bugs Bunny?
11: What was the name of the movie in which Gary Cooper shot Burt Lancaster?
12: Going way back a-gain, how many times did Mickey Rooney play Andy Hardy in that series?
13: In the movie, ‘The African Queen,” who played the Queen?
14: Who played opposite Charlie Chaplin in the 1940 movie, “The Great Dictator?”
15: What was the name of the movie in which Clark Gable set Charles Laughton adrift in a small boat?
16: Who were the three sergeants in the 1939 movie “GungaDin?”
17: Who played the captain in the movie “Mr. Roberts?”
18: Who played the title role in “The Canterville Ghost?”
19: Who got killed by a giant squid in “Reap The Wild Wind?”
20: Who first played Al Capone in the movies?
21: In the movie “Lust For Life,” which ear did Kirk Douglas cut off?
That’s it for the previews. Now for the main attractions — the answers!
Lost and Found
If you have lost books, notebooks, clipboard, gloves, mittens, scarf, glasses, keys, etc. etc. please check at the Lost & Found cabinet, Student Personnel Office, Administration Building, 2nd floor. Cards have been sent out on all items that could be identified.
One: Johnny Weismuller played Tarzan in 12 movies, from 1932 to 1948.
Two: The Thin Man’s wife was played by Myrna Loy. She and William Powell made six Thin Man films.
Three: Sherlock Holmes’ sidekick in that movie was played by Nigel Bruce.
Four:	Duke	Mantee,
gangster and killer, was played by Humphrey Bogart.
Five:	Maureen	O’Hara
played John Wayne’s wife in Rio Grande, and in many other films.
Six: The first screen Tarzan was Elmo Lincoln in the silent film ‘Tarzan of the Apes” in 1918.
Seven: The Wicked Witch was played by Margaret Hamilton, who now sells Maxwell House Coffee on TV.
Eight: Before he got his big break in “Stagecoach,” John Wayne made a series of “C” westerns for kiddie matinees. One series starred Wayne and two other western stars who called themselves ‘The Three Mesquiteers.”
Nine: Gable’s female co-star was singer Jeanette MacDonald.
Ten: The voice of Bugs Bunny was, and still is, Mel Blanc.
11: Gary Cooper killed Burt Lancaster in “Vera Cruz.”
12: Mickey Rooney played Andy Hardy 17 times, from 1937 to 1958.
13: We gotcha. ‘The African Queen” referred to the name of the boat, the “Queen,” which Bogart and Hepburn sailed down the river.
14:	Paulette Goddard
played Chaplin’s co-star. She was his wife at the time.
15: The name of the movie was Mutiny on the Bounty.” Laughton played Captain Bligh, and he made it to land.
16: The three sergeants were Cary Grant, Victor McLaglen and Douglas Fairbanks Jr.
17: James Cagney played the nasty captain.
18:	“The Canterville
Ghost” was played by Charles Laughton.
19: At the end of “Reap The Wild Wind,” a giant squid finished off John Wayne. In another movie, “Wake of the Red Witch,” Wayne got even and killed another giant squid.
20: Paul Muni played Capone (by another name) in the 1932 movie “Scarface.” 21: Neither one. He faked it for the camera. We gotcha again.
The last movie has just gone off and the test pattern has come on. Time to get up and turn off the set. Until tomorrow night, or
next week, or whenever, keep watching that TV. Something worthwhile is bound to come on sooner or later.
The source material for this week’s column was, of course, my TV set, TV Guide, and a book, “The Great Movie Series” by James Robert Parish.

UNITED FARM WORKERS ASKING SUPPORT FOR CALIFORNIA MIGRANT FARM WORKERS
By GENE MULLEN
United Farm Workers, affiliated with AFL-CIO, has initiated its Second East Coast Mobilization in support of California farm workers, according to Bonnie Saland, UFW coordinator for Upstate New York.
Ms. Saland, based in Ithaca, New York, spoke before a gathering of food cooperative operators during a National Food Day conference at Coming Community College, April 8.
She told her audience of the long struggle of migrant and other farm workers in California to gain recognition of UFW. She said the fight between UFW and the large growers is still going on. The large growers, termed “agribusinesses,” have used Chinese, Migrant and other workers to maintain a cheap labor supply.
One such business, Ten-neco, owns land in California equal to two and a half times the area of Rhode Island. _____
UFW’s 10-Year Struggle
The UFW, led by Cesar Chavez, has been trying for over ten years to organize farm workers in California and throughout the United States. As early as 1962, Ms. Saland said.

Chavez was working door-to door to convince people that the only way they could get fair treatment from the large farm businesses was to organize. She said in the 60’s UFW received incredible support from students, the clergy, and from organized labor.
No Power Or Protection Ms. Saland said farm workers in California had no power. Anyone who dared to complain about conditions got fired. The migrant workers, a large section of the farm workers in California, had no voting rights.
Other labor forces are protected by Unfair Labor Practices laws, she said, but agricultural workers are excluded from the protection of these laws. They are at the mercy of the large growers, the agribusinesses.
Working Conditions Speaking of the working conditions, Ms. Saland called them “horrendous.” She told her audience over 800,000 children under 16 worked in the fields. Infant mortality rates for farm workers are 125 per cent higher than the rest of the U.S. population. The average life span of these farm workers is 46 years.

“Farm workers,” she said, “are seven per cent of the work force, yet suffer 22 per cent of fatalities due to work injuries.”
Long History Of Trying Farm workers in California have been trying to organize for the past 100 years, she said. In the 1960’s Cesar Chavez and the UFW dealt with growers who refused to negotiate by using boycotts, urging the public not to buy their products. In 1966 to 1969, one third of grape profits were cut off.
In 1971 UFW forced powerful grape growers to sign contracts with the union.
UFW became affiliated with AFL-CIO and received support from a large section of organized labor. Teamsters Move In Then in 1973 the large growers and the powerful Teamsters Union got to-ether and signed what Ms. aland called “sweetheart contracts.” Sweetheart contracts, she explained, were contracts not voted on by the workers, with the terms set by the growers.
She said that Teamsters sent in gangs of strikebreakers — trying to force the workers to accept the sweetheart contracts — and

that they used brutal tactics to force .UFW out. The struggle is still going on, she said.
“Facing evictions, hunger, jailings, and even death,” Ms. Saland said, “farmworkers have emerged across the country with the courage to stand up for their rights. They have come to ask for our support, the support they will not get in the rural valleys of California, where the growers control everything.”
Boycotts Help UFW is using the boy-’ cott, and have staged boycotts of Gallo and other growers in California. This boycott in the past has resulted in contracts signed with many growers, and in legislation for the protection of farm workers in California.
“The results of the elections,” Ms. Saland said, “were that 69 per cent of the workers voted for UFW, 25 per cent for the Teamsters, and five per cent for no union at all.”
The large growers and the Teamsters have set up a powerful lobby, according to Ms. Saland. They have prevented the California legislators from voting the necessary funds to keep the new Agriculture Labor Relations Board operating. The elections supervised by the board stopped and board offices were closed.
Campaign For Signatures For Signatures UFW is now conducting a campaign in California to get a needed 312,000 signatures of registered California voters to get the issue of the Agriculture Labor Relations Board on the ballot. These signatures are needed before April 28.
If the measure is passed in the November election, the Board will become part of the California constitution and be funded automatically.
UFW has boycott offices all over the country and are stripping those offices to send workers to

The War of 1812:
A NEW SEA POWER IS BORN
This week is a study in great seamanship and excellent gunnery. It is also the story of victory for a son and disgrace for a father.
On August 16, 1812, General William Hull, surrendered the fort and city of Detroit without a battle to the British. It was to be the only time in the annals of the American Army that a white flag was ever raised over continental American soil. General Hull was court-martialed and convicted of cowardice and sentenced to dismissal and death. Only the intervention of President Madison spared his life.
Just three days after the disgraceful surrender by his father, Captain Isaac Hull, a short stout man, sailed from Boston. The ship he commanded, has to this day, been a symbol of strength, endurance and pride to the United States Navy. The U.S.S. Constitution, 45 guns, with a seasoned crew, knifed her way eastward through the waves of a steady sea, her sails bellowing in a stiff wind, sailed to a battle that was to make naval history and set in motion the construction of sailing vessels that ended with the clipper ships. She was better known as “Old Ironsides” as no British cannon could penetrate her hull.
Some 750 miles east of Boston, Hull’s lookouts sighted the sails of the British frigate, Guerriere, 54 guns. Hull was elated at the thought of doing battle with this particular vessel as her arrogant commanding officer. Captain James Dacres, had made threats and taunted the Americans to come out and fight.
Both ships immediately be£an maneuvering for “the weather gauge,” that is to get to the windward of the enemy. Each wanted to be able to rake the other

without being raked. But Hull and Dacres maneuvered with such skill that neither could gain the advantage. Guerriere opened fire at the long range, blasting away with a starboard broadside that fell short. Dacres next wore ship, that is, turned in a half-circle so as to bring his port side to bear. This time his shot went screeching high over Constitution’s topsails.
Suddenly Hull set extra sail and closed quickly on the surprised Dacres. Hull waited until he was within half-pistol shot, 50 feet, and then cried to his crew, “Now, boys, pour it into them!”
“Old Ironsides” forward guns, double shotted with grape (small pellets and scrap iron), roared and flamed. They riddled Guer-riere’s rigging, ripped her sails and reddened her decks with blood. Hull leaned over the rail, eager for a closer look, and split his tight buff breeches down the seam. His men shouted and roared with laughter, and again bent to their guns, giving Guerriere a broadside.
Running before the wind, nearly abreast of each other, both ships exchanged fire. Shot after shot bounced off the hull of Constitution as though the British cannon were half loaded with powder. Gradually the superior American guns and gunnery began to tell. After a quarter-hour, Guerriere was a cripple. His mizzenmast fell overboard just as her main yard gave way in the middle. Slowing with reduced sail power, she allowed “Old Ironsides” to steer a-cross her bow into the coveted raking position. Guerriere now could fire only a few forward guns, while Constitution could bring all guns to bear to blast the Britisher lengthwise. Hull seized the opportunity. He

I think the strongest candidate in the Republican race is President Ford, because Reagan has put his foot in his mouth too many times. Carter has his charisma going, but that’s about all.

Carter is the strongest Democrat, and President Ford is the strongest Republican, so I think the contest will be between them, unless Humphrey or Kennedy jumps in.

raked Dacres with his starboard guns, wore ship, and raked him with the port battery.
Dacres, streaming blood, gallantly ran up a Union Jack on the stump of his foremast - but the battle was over. Her decks slippery with blood, her hull riddled, her masts and canvas gone and her rigging shredded, Guerriere was a helpless hulk dipping and rolling in the sea. Dacres fired a surrender shot to leeward and pulled down his flag.
Captain Hull ordered the prisoners to bring their wounded aboard Constitution where they were treated then ordered a burial service for the dead on the demolished hulk. As the Guerriere was beyond salvage he ordered her burned and dipped his colors as she went under. A final salute to a gallant ship but it was prison for her arrogant captain.
The victory was of such magnitude that it changed the whole completion of the War of 1812. Victories on land and sea increased steadily, privateers that had been plundering both American and British shipping, flocked to the American’s cause rather than come face to face with these new and awesome ships like the Constitution.
Although the capture of Canada was never accomplished, it assured the world the United States would remain a free nation.
After many defeats at the hands of the Constitution and her sister ships the United States and Constellation, the London Times printed its first criticism of the British Admiralty with a headline, “What is Wrong With British Sea Power.”
Government Documents?
By DON VOORHEES
Is Lily of the Valley a poisonous plant? Why is Mars called the “Red Planet?” Can’t answer those questions? You could if you used the Library’s government document collection. The usual reaction to that is “Government documents? I thought those were just statistics and hearings and that sort of thing.” Sure, information of that type is provided by the government, but as a Federal depository the Houghton Library has access to a wide variety of books, pamphlets and special reports prepared by government agencies.
Most material is located under the heading of the publishing agency. Interested in antiques and Americana? Try the Smithsonian Institution’s Publications in History and Technology. For those with a technological mind Woodworking Tools 1600-1900 (SI 3.3:241/ paper 51) provides an excellent survey of the subject. If you’re inclined to something more exotic, the History of the Comstock Patent Medicine Business and Dr. Morse’s Indian Root Pills (SI 1.28:22) is a sure winner.
Everyone knows that the Agriculture Department is interested in plants and food crops, but their publications include a wealth of information on animals, cooking and household affairs. As a sample I might suggest Breeding and Raising Horses (AL76: 394), How to Buy Food (A1.76:443/2) and Shade Trees for the Home (A1.76:425).
Many of the most attractive and useful publications
have been processed into the general collection With the Bicentennial year at hand, many of these deal with historical topics. Two new books, Signers of the Declaration (Ref. E 221 .U78) and The Dye is Now Cast (E 302. 5 . N38) provide fascinating insights on the struggle for independence.
To answer my original question - yes, Lily of the Valley is poisonous. With Spring weather fast approaching, you can find out about this and other plants in Typical Poisonous Plants (Ref SB 617.Y68). For your own information (or for that science project you left to the last minute) the Book of Mars (QB 641 .G55) will tell all you need to know about the “Red Planet.”
Clearly, government documents can tell you more than the population at the last census. These titles are just a few of the thousands available in your Library. Others are always on display on our stairway. Interested? Ask a librarian! We’re always here and ready to help.

Crier Dominates Super
To Meet Winning Faculty Team
The Crier has clinched the Super Club competition, taking six possible first place finishes and compiling a total of 64 points after the first week of competition.
The Super Club competitions, which started April 5, was “engineered” by CCC’s Engineering Society. Super Club’s main purpose was to bring about some inter club competition which would hopefully be continued every year by the Society.
By TOM WAY
The competition consists of 11 events in which the individual clubs participated in eight events at the same time other clubs are competing. Three faculty clubs also compete a-mong themselves. After all events have been held, the winning student club will face the winning faculty club to determine the overall Superteam. The winner of the student-faculty contest will have the club’s name permanently inscribed on a three-foot trophy.
The trophy will be displayed for everyone to admire.
The 11 events consist of
(I) rowing, (2) tennis, (3) obstacle course, (4) foul shooting, (5) soft ball hitting, (6) sack race, (7) Euchre, (8) volleyball, (9) Frisbee, (10) tug-of-war, and
(II) arm wrestling.
The Crier, in taking first place in six of the events, came out on top with the 64 points. They meet the winning faculty team for a round of playoffs early this week.

CRIER SPORTS
AROUND THE GYM
By GREG TRANTER
Reds Tabbed To Repeat As Champions
With the baseball season
beginning in the past week, I feel it appropriate to pick my pennant winners.
The American League East looks like a three way battle between Boston, Baltimore, and New York.
If the Bosox plan on repeating, Jim Rice and Fred Lynn are going to again have to be superb. Boston is also going to need good years from Carl Yastrem-ski and their entire pitching staff.
Baltimore really helped themselves, thanks to the stupidity of Charley Finley as they literally stole Reggie Jackson and Ken Holtz-man. Baltimore has pro-_ bably the strongest defense' in toe American League find with Jim Palmer teaming with Holtzman that will be quite a righty, lefty combo. A big boost for the O’s would be Mike Cueller and Ross Grimsley returning to a few years ago form.
The Yankees have the AL’s best pitcher in “Catfish” Hunter, and one of the better catchers in Thurman Munson. They also have speed to bum in Mickey Rivers and Elliot Maddox. But for the Yanks to go anywhere, they will have to find an infield. They have probably toe worst infield in baseball.
My prediction is Baltimore (if Reggie Jackson reports) will rule the roost, followed by Boston, with New York third. Cleveland will end up fourth on toe strength of Manager Frank Robinson. Milwaukee will finish fifth and sad ole Detroit last
The AL West should be a race between Oakland and
Penn-York
The Frontiersmen of Niagara County Community College captured the inaugural basketball championship in the newly formed Penn-York Athletic Conference. Coach Dan Baz-zani’s Niagara team compiled a fine 13-1 record en-route to the championship, losing only to Jamestown CC at Jamestown.
Niagara and Jamestown continued their fierce rivalry at the Region III Basketball Tourney at Monroe CC early in March when they met for the championship. But this time Coach Nick Creola’s team edged Niagara for the regional crown and a trip to toe NJCAA Championships in
Bowling League

Kansas City. The Royals have a dynamite hitting attack with the likes of Amos Otis, John Mayberry and Hal McKae. They also have one of the AL’s best hurlers in Steve Busby. But, for the Royals to win it, they will have to be getting good pitching from the likes of Denis Leonard, Al Fitzmorris, Paul Splithorf and Doug Bird.
Should Oakland not win it this year, Charlie Finley should fire himself after giving away Jackson and Holtzman. But remember the A’s still have Joe Rudi, Sal Bando, and pitchers Vida Blue and Rollie Fingers. If Oakland is going to make a good run, these four will have to have superlative years.
I feel Kansas City will edge out Oakland by a very slim margin. Chicago in their short pants and speed will finish a surprising third. Texas will take fourth as Ken Burroughs will prove he is definitely one of the best fitters in either, league. Minnesota will finish 5 th as Rod Carew will win his fifth consecutive batting title and California will dwell in toe cellar for another year.
The National League East will also be a three team race as Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and the Mets of New York will battle to the wire.
On paper, the Phillies may have the best team in baseball. Nobody can match their infield with two time home run Champ Mike Schmidt, All Stars Larry Bowa, Dave Cash, and Richie Allen. No team can match their power hitters Schmidt, Greg Luzin-

ski (major league leader in RBI’s) and Allen. Where the Phil’s seem to lack is on the mound, but they have two 20 games winners in Steve Carlton and Jim Kaat and ace reliever, Tug McGraw. On paper the Phillies are the best in the NL East but pennants aren’t won on paper.
The Pirates are tough year in and year out and this year is no different. The Pirates have the same old great hitters, Oliver, Stargell, Sanguillen, Sten-nett, and Zisk. But his year they’ve even got some pitching with John Candelar-ia, Jerry Reuss and newcomer “Doc” Medich. The Bucs, as Bob Prince would say, will have many “Bugs on the Rug” and this year they will even have some pitchers “hummin that pill” which may well add up to another NL East title.
The Mets again will be an all pitch, no hit team. This year they have four superb starters in Tom Sea-ver, who is baseball’s best pitcher, Jon Matlack, Jerry Koosman and newcomer Mickey Lolich. But, as you know, in baseball to win you have to score and the Mets don’t do much of that. Outside of Dave Kingman,
the New Yorkers don’t have much for hitters. A big plus for the Mets would be a return to form of former All Star Joe Torre and good years from Ed Krane-pool, Bud Harrelson and rookie Mike Vail.
My fearless forecast is that toe Phil’s will put their paper on the field and win a tight race. The Mets will be a close second, and the Pirates a very close third. The rest of the division will be St. Louis 4th, Chicago 5th, and Montreal last.
The NL. West should be a runaway as defending World Champion Cincinnati is just too strong. The Reds have toe best hitting in baseball with Joe Morgan, Pete Rose, John Bench, (all three have won the MVP award), Tony Perez (leading RBI man in toe majors over the past eight seasons), George Foster, and Dave Concepcion. They have the best fielding with four gold glove winners and the major league record for most consecutive games without an error.
Some say the Reds weakness is pitching. Well for starters they have Don Gul-lett 15-4 last season, and he
sat out two months with an injury, Gary Nolan with 15 wins and a 3.16 ERA, Jack Billingham, the winning-est pitcher in the NL over the last three years, and Fred Norman who is almost unbeatable at Riverfront Stadium. For relief, they have the best lefty righty combo in baseball with Will McEnaney, and Rawly Eastwick. If that’s a weakness, I sure wouldn’t mind having weaknesses.
The rest of the division should be quite a race to see who finishes second. Los Angeles looks toe best, even though they lost Andy Messersmith. They will be followed successively by San Francisco, San Diego, Atlanta and Houston.
In the American League championship series, I feel Baltimore will beat Kansas City in four games.
Cincinnati will again rule the National League as they will beat the Phillies in four games.
Cincinnati again will be Champions of the World as they will defeat the Orioles in five games.
Until next time, this is Greg Tranter, rounding third and heading home.
