Volume 21 No. 19 Monday, April 20,1981 corning community college Policy adopted with special forum By Barbara Sutton The Mental Health Players made one point clear about sexual harassment at last Wednesday’s forum-no one should have to tolerate it. The 12:30 p.m. program which formally introduced CCC’s new sexual harassment policy was designed to heighten awareness of the topic, according to student coordinator Marla Huette. President Donald Hangen addressed the forum prior to the players' skits explaining that the new policy was “unique, broad and general.” Hangen said the new policy applies federal guidelines for sexual harassment to students pursuing educational or other activities at CCC. “This policy doesn’t specify simply because the area is difficult to define,” said President Hangen. The college recommends a variety of people including students and faculty members where the student/faculty member can go to discuss the problem and bring about action. Hangen noted that the forum was also designed to brfng to CCC’s attention those actions which may or may not be considered sexual harassment. Four members of the area Mental Health Players performed mock sexual harassment situations after which the audience was able to direct questions to the characters. John Edwards, leader of the players, explained that sexual harassment was very subtle. This speculation was illustrated with a situation between a manager and his female employee. The man requests the woman to accompany him on a “business trip” to New Orleans without telling her the nature of the traveling and urges her to "give a little, play the game.” This situation provoked much response from the audience who questioned the male character’s ethics and gave possible solutions to the brewing problem. A teenage homosexual was the subject of the following skit who found himself propositioned by his instructor after school when he requested scholastic help. The discussion which followed dealt with personal relationships between students or other individuals and those who execute power and authority over continued on page 5 Sunfest activities coming together The Sunfest budget was upped by $6000 last week with the Faculty Student Organization’s decision to grant the additional money. , The new budget stands at $20,000.

He noted that student tickets, priced at $6, will be sold before general admission seats for an exclusive one-week period. Non-students may purchase tickets for $8, and at the door tickets will cost $y. Steve Thurston, foods coordinator, announced that a clambake will highlight the concessions, with tickets being sold in advance. Still tentative is a beef roast to function similar to the clambake. A variety of specialty events are being considered, among them are a hot air balloon race, a sky diving exhibition, a kite flying contest and a motorcycle show. Many games will be held; some designed for the handicapped, such as a wheelchair race. A karate demonstration, juggling and mime workshops will also be included in the day’s activities. Sunfest t-shirts will be sold prior to the event, and publicity chairperson Robin DeLill announced they will be light blue with a black logo design.

McCracken will close out the Visiting Scholar Series at the college Wednesday, addressing the Coming community in the gym at 8 p.m. Formerly a member of Presidents Nixon and Eisenhower’s Council of Economic Advisors, McCracken is the current president of the assembly on U.S.-Japan economic policy.

A Friday Farewell The Crier Page 2 Budget request vetoed Students educationally active A $762 finance request was vetoed by the Student Government Editorial Board last week, the first veto enacted during the 1980-81 school year. Surprisingly, the veto was not overriden but upheld after some discussion on the senate floor. A proposal by Joe Poteat was presented to the senate two weeks prior to the veto which requested $1500 for a CCC finance class to visit New York City. The senate slashed the request figure to $762 a week later. The Editorial Board immediately decided to veto the request, said President Bulent Melezoglu. “We didn’t have the money to fund the trip,” he said. “with the N.E.W.S. proposal coming up, we preferred to give what we did have left to them.” Melezoglu explained that the board would rather fund an active organization than a class which has not contributed much to benefit other students. “We’d really like to give the finance class the money,” he said, “but the limited budget calls for priorities; we're not a bottomless pit here, we can’t just hand out the money to everyone. First thing you know everyone would want money." At last Thursday’s meeting the Editorial Board explained the rationale behind its veto to the senate, which upheld the decision. The findings of a recently completed study indicate that Coming Community College graduates remain educationally active. Dr. Gunars Reimanis, dean of instruction, who directed the study, said, “A five-year follow-up reveals that 70 percent of those who graduated in 1975, have continued their education.” About 60 percent, he noted, of those who continued, have obtained four-year degrees. 6 percent have obtained master’s degrees and 20 percent are still enrolled in universities and graduate schools. About one-third of the graduates, who did not continue their education immediately after graduation, are now planning to pursue further study. Of ail of the 1975 graduates, only 5 percent are unemployed and looking for jobs. Area business and industry accounts for one-third of the em- ployers for the 75 graduates, while another 18 percent work in area hospitals and 15 percent at educational institutions. With salary ranges of up to $30,000 per year, it was understandable that 90 percent of those surveyed expressed satisfaction with their jobs. They also credited the college with providing the foundation for their present status and remembered it as an enjoyable experience. Security Relations Racial Awareness topic A program designed to heighten racial awareness was held at CCC’s Off Campus Day Care Center on March 19 and 26 and April 2. Each of the three sessions, which lasted between one to two hours, was a workshop for development of staff members, most of whom were CCC students. Led by Ron Hofsess and Robert Fredericks, the program taught how racism relates to us and how we can combat it. The workshop also dealt with how racism is seen by our present day society and how it may affect young children. Overall, the program was described as bringing better understanding of ourselves and the world around y i , i~y ccc y HOUSING BY Carol Anderson Most students are unaware ot the function of College Security. The College Security Guard, with the exception of two, is an unarmed civilian with neither the rights nor authority of a peace officers. His job is to patrol and maintain order on CCC campus and he does related work as required. A few examples of his work are such things as to investigate thefts, break-ins, assaults and other reported violations of laws and college rules. Most students think Security’s only job is to patrol the parking lots and issue tickets--this isn’t so-they do a lot of other work that we don’t see or hear about unless something happens to us. For example, on campus they respond to emergencies, are first on the scene of most reported crimes, and do their best to protect the college from vandalism and theft. You can follow these simple crime prevention tips: 1. Think of your purse or wallet as if it were a portable safe. Handle it as such for maximum safety. 2. Lock your cars, remove the keys and keep all valuables out of sight. 3. Check and recheck your office doors and windows to make sure they are locked. Help your Security Force to help you.

What’s your “Drinking Thinking” attitude towards alcohol? The Student Health Service, Coming Area Council on Alcoholism and the Steuben County Family Service Society are jointly sponsoring a three-day seminar, April 20, 21, and 22, to give a better understanding of the problems resulting from alcohol abuse. The seminar, which has full support from the administration, will take place each day from 11 to 2 p.m. in the Large Lounge of the Commons. Titled the “Womb and Tomb" informational seminar, the event will begin with an overview of the activities given by David Morsch of the Steuben County Family Service Society, followed by a discussion on “Survival Skills for Responsible Drinking”. Next on the Monday agenda is a film titled “Until I Get Caught" and then a rap session to close the day’s activities. Tuesday’s first presentation will deal with “Fetal Alcohol Syndrome and Alcohol-Related Birth Defects.” Two films will follow, and then a Reaction Panel will discuss the topics on which will be seated Norma Spaker and Pat Haughey from the Coming Area Council on Alcoholism. Again, the activities will be closed with a rap session. “Alcohol’s Effects on Young Adults/Families” will kick off Wednesday’s discussion followed by review from panelists Mark Frank and Father Phil Billotte. Next on the schedule will be “Family Sculpture” followed by a wrap-up of the events given by Arlene Updyke, CCC’s college nurse. The Nursing Office urges student participation because “your attitude towards alcohol will affect your decision about drinking, and. even those of your friends.” This program will make students more aware of what they can do to improve their drinking attitudes.

The Crier Page 4 CANDIDATES IN PROFILE The Student Coalition for a Better and More Responsive Student Government By Margo Cornish The candidates forming this coalition would like to make clear at the outset that this is not a group with one specific platform, or endorses this group as a whole. We feel that each of the candidates should run and will run for offices bases on individual experience and merits. We feel that, in this way, we can offer to the student body a cross-section from which to choose those persons best suited for their respective positions. This coalition was formed for communication purposes only and in no way endorses a specific candidate. As a group, we do have many shared concerns in specific areas and if the student body feels that we would serve better as a group, we leave this decision up to them. GENE DUNN (33) is running for the President of the Student Government. He is a husband, father of three, and a student. Gene moved to Elmira from Nevada in 1973 and was in combatant status in Viet Nam from 1968-1971. He is a Volunteer Fireman in Breeseport, where he now lives. He is on the Board of Directors for the firehouse, is the past secretary and is now the Captain of the Fire Police. He is a Battallion Sergeant in the Army Reserve.

He is on the Learning Resources Committee, a Student/Faculty committee that considers teachers’ advance schooling, sabbaticals, etc. He is the Chief Magistrate of the Judiciary Board of Corning Community College and is an active member of the Veterans’ Association. “I would like to see a more mature Student Government Executive Board,” says Gene, “if only for the fact that I’m tired of seeing the childish antics going on; the laxity ... not fulfilling the duties as to the Constitution which they revised! There is a lack of professionalism and they conduct their meetings like a kindergarten. There is no permanent place for the Student Government meetings. “I would like to see more dissemination of information from the Student Government to It the student body, and the expansion of organizations, clubs and committees on campus, and more involement of senators in the Student Government. I would like to see an Open-Door Policy so that anyone of the student body at large with questions or ideas is allowed to pursue them. 1 would also like to see an expansion to the school newspaper with more advertising so they can pay for their own work study. I feel WCEB has a very limited output and this is a matter worth delving into. In addition, due to higher tuition, you are finding more people attending two-year schools instead of four-year schools, so we need better programs to meet these needs." STEVE THURSTON (21) is running for Vice-President. A graduate of Notre Dame in Elmira, Steve now lives in Elkland, Pa. In high school, he was the Business Manager of the yearbook and the photographer for both the yearbook and the school newspaper. He has been a Senator for one semester here at CCC and is the Vice-President of The Law Society. He was active in the planning and execution of the “Snow Ball" and is the Chairman of the Food Committee for Sunfest. Outside of school, Steve works for the Grocers’ Inventory Service as an auditor. “I feel, through my relations with other organizations, past and present, I am capable of fulfilling the job for the betterment of the students in regards to their needs and wants. I feel there is an extreme need on campus for better relations between the Administration and the Student Government as a body, and the student body as a whole. This should be accomplished through more mature negotiations which will leave room for better interaction in coming years. There should be more chances, possibly a forum-type atmosphere, where students can bring questions, concerns and problems to the Student Government. I am also pushing for programs geared more for students of all ages.” Volunteer workshop A “Workshop on Voluntary Agencies in International Development” will be held at the Ithaca, NY, campus of Cornell University, in association with the Peace Corps, on April 24 and 25, 1981, to look at and discuss the role of voluntary agencies in Third World Development.

Representatives of such state and private universities as SUNY Albany, SUNY Binghamton, SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry (Syracuse), Columbia University, the Pratt Institute and Cornell University itself« also have been invited to attend and participate.

I’ve been involved with the Student Government Senate sinoe the beginning of this semester. I’ve decided to take an active interest in the activities on campus. I have noticed that many students at CCC are unaware of the influence that the Student Government has on the effect of campus activities. “If elected to the position of Student Government Vice-President, my primary objective will be to make the students at CCC realize that the Student Government is here to help the students. I would like STudent Government to have closer ties with the Student Body so that we, the Student Government, can represent you more effectively.” GENEDUNN STEVE THURSTON • .Mil TERR Y CANNON WALLA CE TERRY CANNON WALLACE (26) is run ning for the Board of Trustees. Although he now lives in Corning, he previously lived in Ocean Beach, Cal. and was raised in Champagne, Illinois.

He is a peace-time Vet, having worked on a sub on the Admiral’s staff in the Navy. He has worked in many management positions. Being brought up in Champagne, a town of 60,000 students, bred him with student politics and their effects. He is a very active member of the Veterans' Association. Says Terry, “My interests lie in the finances and uses of not just the student activity monies and tuition, but how they are dispursed. I would like to see the students and the administration work together in the allocation of these monies to fulfill the needs of the students, the community and the educational system. “Student Government sessions are closed-door, at present, due to a lack of control and professionalism in the present format. As a representative, a collateral responsibility is conducting meetings in a fahsion that is productive. “As a direct link between students and the administration, I feel a primary responsibility to the students in conveying their needs to the Board. Of equal importance is the conveyance of the Board’s needs to the students.” DEBBIE BAUMAN DEBBIE BAUMAN (26) is rurtning for Secretary. Although she now lives in Painted Post, Debbie is originally from Ithaca. The divorced mother of one little boy, she is an Executive Secretarial student and a member of the Secretarial Club.

Debbie says, “With my ultimate goal as an executive secretary, I feel my studies will enhance the position of Secretary of the Student Government. My past and present occupational positions have involved the secretarial field. I am willing to do any work it takes to better the quality of the Student Government. “I would like to see more interaction and involvement of students with the elected body. As a reward to myself, I would be able to use this position on my resume as an extremely valuable experience.” “In searching for candidates for Treasurer and Auditing Treasurer, we are interviewing to find the best possible choices ... as in the case of our choice for secretary, we want people who will both serve and benefit from the experience. By this printing, those candidates will have been announced.” (Coalition) a festival of t\je arts Apri l 17-30 ^WctLTWS, MS LE.WCW3!

Edwards concluded that any intimate activities between student and teacher, proposed by the latter, is indeed sexual harassment. The final situation involved a secretary whose boss had made several propositions and then a pass at her. The discussion focused on the secretary’s dress code at the office: “just how much thigh is exposed.” Some said that a person should be free to dress as they wished without worrying about being attacked. Others said it is a person’s responsibility to dress professionally on the- job and avoid looking like he/she is going to a night club. Most participants were pleased with the group’s presentation, and the two-hour program was hailed as a success by its coordinators. Many people who came in late were surprised to find out that the situations were not real events which had taken place. Where have all the choo-choos gone? Somewhere back in its history America swallowed the concept that what works in Europe won’t work in the United States. Disregarding the fact that most European countries were making use of nuclear power while America was guzzling up oil, this theory can be toppled to the ground with two words------mass transportation. The Reagan administration’s attempt to cut federal transportation spending is a giant leap forward for promoting the sale of automobiles and securing sales for the oil companies. But, for the good of the average commuter, the move is leaning toward the dark ages of a mass transit system. The U.S. has never been able to secure the groundwork for a large-scale national transit system. Conrail and Amtrack are on the verge of being dismantled and the city bus systems across the nation are on the bankruptcy borderline. But. instead of building these fledgling institutions up, the government is trying everything possible to tear them down. What happens when the price of gas reaches the unaffordable point? Take the train? What train is that? A few years ago Coming, itself, tore up most of the aged railroad tracks around the city. I can see the city doling out more money in a few years to lay them back down. In Great Britain, for example, even the smallest of towns is complete with a national bus depot and a Britrail terminal. These comprehensive systems are in constant usage; the English people simply cannot afford the cost of gasoline. I realize the United States is greater in magnitude than the small European countries, but it would not be impossible to install a national railroad system. The American people have to leam to make concessions. We can no longer drive where we want, when we want to. Sure we have less “go as you please” freedom on buses and trains, but we also have the security that we will reach our destination without run- ning out of gas or getting held up in traffic. Already, New York City’s transit workers are making threats about Reagan’s proposed transportation cuts; and you remember what happened to New York City last spring when the transit workers went on strike. For years America’s motto was “bigger is better” as we bought our Lincoln Continentals, which were almost a permanent appendix to the American drivers. A time will come when these appendixes will no longer move, and the good old American ramrod will sit immobile in his driveway. GUEST EDITORIAL BLOOD BANK CONFLICT SOLVED By Margo Cornish Two issues ago, I wrote a letter to the editor thanking the school nursing personnel and the RedCross for their work. I was then informed by the Veterans’ Association that they had been sponsoring the blood banks for three years. For over a week now, I have been getting conflicting comments and complaints as to my “correction” in the last issue. Finally, to settle this issue, I went to the source. I called Charlie Woodhouse of the local chapter of the Red Cross, and he told me that the blood banks at CCC are co-sponsored by the Student Nursing Club and the Veterans’ Association, and have been, right along. A member of the Nursing Club said that it was her understanding that the reason there would not be another blood bank at CCC this semester was because of the lack of participation at the last one, on Feb. 12. Being involved at the time with the Heart Clinic, there were only a few student nurses available to volunteer their services. According to Mr. Woodhouse, this is a misconception. “They wanted to set up one for the beginning part of May and the dates considered conflicted with other dates already scheduled. The one in particular, May 19, was when we would be doing an area high school and we can’t do both in the same day. It is not due to lack of participation. We are very pleased with the outcome of the last set-up. We got 103 units of blood ... three units over our quota. And we are looking forward to returning in the Fall, on Nov. 11, for our next blood bank.” So, ladies and gentlemen of the Nursing and Veterans’ organizations ... I thank you ALL! You do good work. The Crier Page 6 editorial On Thursday and Friday when you ready yourself to leave the campus think of what you forgot; not your car keys, your books or your chemistry lab report. If you’re like the majority of CCC’s students, you forgot to vote in the Student Government elections. It is during this time of the school year that the current officers usually lose their enthusiasm and drive to really make a change in the way things are run. Amidst this quiescence, the thought of a better Student Government for next year is perhaps the only bright spot that students can hold on to, and they should. No matter how many times you’ve heard it or how many ways no been put; it’s up to you to establish the student administration that works best for the college. It’s up to you to elect a group of people you believe will not slack off next year at this time. If you ve ever walked by the Student I______________________________________________ Government office and have seen or heard things you did not approve of, this is your opportunity to act on your disillusionment. If you were pleased with an event or a decision of this year’s Student Government here’s your chance to show your approval by voting for someone active in the policy thereof It’s absurd to make an excuse for not voting; the outcome will affect you one way or another. Even if you will not be here next year, you owe it to the incoming freshmen who don’t have the opportunity to vote for their student leaders to use your familiarity with the candidates in choosing the best man or woman. You can sit for an entire semester making trite Student Government jokes and criticisms all you want, but that’s not going to change things. The ballot does wonders, try it out and see. The Real Deal by Riccardo Gaston The Reagan Administration has been selling a lot of “woof tickets” to the Russians lately. It makes great press, but it is a very foolish thing to do. A “woof" (as in the bark of a big dog) is a verbal challenge. To sell a “woof ticket” is to verbally challenge someone with the implicit threat of violence. To buy such a ticket means to accept the offered challenge. For reasons of their own the Russians have chosen to ignore the President's posturing. However, the rapidly deteriorating situation in Poland may soon force them to purchase every ‘Woof ticket” the President can sell. Do we have some weapons system that the Military is keeping secret? Are all the reports of our military problems a huge smokescreen to sucker the Russians? Is there some secret pact within NATO that assures us of allied aid in a confrontation with the Soviet bloc? Or is it some kind of display of Hollywood bravado designed to Drove America is tough again? As a youngster I got into a fight one day with two brothers once. After receiving a thorough thrashing, I told them I was going to get my cousin who lived across town. Before I could get across town those boys beat me every way from Sunday. 1 learned an invaluable lesson that day. I learned to keep my mouth shut about my intentions until 1 was prepared to act on them. If we are militarily capable of doing battle with the Russians, then the President should tell us so. He shouldn’t be using military inferiority as a scare tactic to gain support for tremendous increases in defense spending. If we are militarily inferior, then the President owes it to the country to scrupulously avoid placing us in a no-win situation. I would like to see the President develop a variation on the famous statement and "Speak softly until you carry a big stick.” On Beinq Free RICHARDSMiTH steal?

I am asking all of you that drive cars and pass by students trying to get a ride up Spencer Hill to stop and think for a moment. Would you like to stand and watch obviously empty cars drive by?

COLLEGE POETRY REVIEW The NATIONAL POETRY PRESS announces The closing date for the submission of manuscripts by College Students is MAY 1st ANY STUDENT attending either junior or senior college Is eligible to submit his verse. There is no limitation as to form or theme. Shorter works are preferred because of space limitations. Each poem must be TYPED or PRINTED on a separate sheet, and must bear the NAME and HOME ADDRESS of the student, and the COLLEGE ADDRESS as well. MANUSCRIPTS should be sentto the OFFICE OF THE PRESS. NATIONAL POETRY PRESS Box 218 Agoura, Ca. 91301 Perhaps it is an indication of the malaise that seems to be affecting the body politic of America. Apathy and not caring about your fellow man or woman seems to be a part of American life today. This apathy makes itself felt at Coming Community College by the almost general refusal to pick up college students at the bottom or top of Spencer Hill by other, more fortunate students. There is something extremely maddening about seeing someone driving by in a car all alone while you freeze your ass off waiting for a ride. The women driving by I somewhat understand, especially if they look like they were raised on Reader’s Digest. I’m sure you all have read their stories about the dangers of hitchhiking and picking up hitchhikers. The people who disgust me the most when they pass by me and other students trying to get a ride up the hill are those young men and boys who drive by all by themselves. Surely, they don’t exoect me to try to rape them. Wnat makes them think (if they think) that they have anything of value that I want to WCEB retorts letter To the Editor, In response to “name withheld”, 4-3-81. We at WCEB FM 91.9 are a bit hacked off, irked, or whatever appropriate language is necessary, about the general comment we have received this semester on our performance as a station. Generally, there is little support or interest in the station as a whole. We are rarely aired in the Commons, and I would dare say that many students do not even know WCEB exists! Hey, people------your money is supporting WCEB and other organizations which exist to serve YOU! It follows that it is your duty to let us know what you want to be done. We have the abilities to do public service announcements, information. campus events and news items that you, the college, might wisn to explore. We have a request line, 962-9360, for the purpose of playing what you want to hear. We have received complaints about what we play, yet the problems are not ours, they’re yours. If you want something else, let us know. We aren’t too much different from any of you other students out there. Program hailed except that we devote, on the average, four hours per week serving you! Of late, we have had numerous problems with equipment failures, and poor attendance with people who sadly will not accept the responsibility that running a radio station demands. All 1 can say is, those of us who really care about WCEB are working our hardest to get things going as they are expected. So, to those of you out there who have criticisms for the work we do here at WCEB, there is plenty of space in our “on air” schedule to do what you think might improve our standards. Radio is much more than playing records-----it s a lot ol work. So, if you would like to be a part of WCEB, c’mon down and see what goes on. Then, when you can demonstrate to us that you can handle the responsibilities of being a D.J., be prepared to work! Thanx from WCEB. To the Editor, For once, I took advantage of an opportunity, and am I happy that I did. In last week’s Crier it was announced that tickets were available, free, to CCC students to attend the performance of “Elijah” last Sunday evening. Students in the CCC Choir were to join with the Corning Philharmonic and Chorus, along for with soloist William Warfield, this event. It was beautifully done and well-attended, a most enjoyable evening. I wish I had seen more CCC students there. Thanks to those responsible for making the opportunity possible.

The judges: never once uttered the words “Gong ’em” by Madalaine Trice On April 9, APC presented its Second Annual Talent Show from 12 to 2 pm in the Commons’ Large Lounge. It was surprising to see such a number of CCC’s talented students trying out. Many of the acts were music oriented with the combination of voice and guitar. Among various acts were a poetry reading and a female juggler. Three cash prizes and twu honorable mentions were awarded to the winners. Starting at the bottom, the honorable mentions went to Nancy Riesbeck and Ray Stone. Both were guitar and voice solos, and both excellent, I might add. In third place was Kit and the Bobcats who performed a selection from the musical, “The Music Man”: excellent four-part harmony. And for only rehersing the night before tne show, this group illustrated its great stage presence and confidence. Ed Dvorak took second place with his electric piano and guitar. Accompanied by a drummer, Ed gave a fine rendition of jazz pieces and original music. And in first place was the Girls’ Quartet, consisting of Michele Box, Mary Ainsworth, Tammy Wiedmeir and Marge Draper: more four-part harmony. With a flair for having fun on stage, these girls were “In The Mood”. The talent show was judged by faculty members Bill Thompson, Jude Drew, Donalyn Wexelle, Lisa Waters and Charlie Ringsmuth. Sherry Kapp, who organizaed the event, was the Master of Ceremonies. paid—advertisement Dave McDermott Jim Bramble Elizabeth Bril l Debi Miller Darlene Freeman Ed Ober The Crier Page 8 Ultravox -progres rock By Scott Bunt Like contemporaries Gary Newman and Kraftwerk, Ultravox are a hypnotic, synthesizer-based, robot rock band. Unlike the two aforementioned bands, however, Ultravox have never produced a hit as sizable or influential as “Cars” or “Autobahn.” Their latest release. Vienna, is in no danger of yielding such a monumental track, though it is brimming with excellent ideas. From the driving syncopated beat of the single, “Passing Strangers,” to the soaring keyboard artistry of the title cut, Ultravox prove that they are more than capable of relating whatever images they choose. When they work in this narrative context, their songs are poignant and powerful, charged with the electric nature of these futuristic epics. Too often, however, they seem overconcerned with the creation of a mood. “Mr. X” pushes so hard to achieve a feeling of menace that it falls flat. Ultravox fail to realize that the vary basis of these moods lies in the tension of the music itself, as Bowie/Eno once demonstrated on cuts like "Sense of Doubt” and “Neukoln.” When they do wind up their visionary talents, on “New Europeans" and “Western Promise,” they produce some exciting, hook ladden, progressive rock. Certainly, it’s been done before, but Ultravox still do it imaginatively and tastefully. Many events scheduled for Prism Next week the arts will be alive and kicking. Prism, a CCC festival of the arts held annually, will run from April 27 - 30, and all scheduled events are free to students and the community. Coordinated by the arts and convocations committee, the event is funded through Student Government and the Faculty Student Association. Beginning Monday, April 27 and running all week will be a student art exhibit on display in the Small Lounge of the Commons. Works will include paintings, sculptures and ceramics and a “meet the artists” conversation will take place on Monday at 3:00 p.m. with wine and cheese being served. The CCC Chorus, under the direction of Dr. James Hudson will present music selections on Wed- nesday, April 29 in the Houghton Library at 12:00 p.m. The chorus recently participated in the Coming Philharmonic’s presentation of “Elijah” which was described as “brilliant and breathtaking.” It’s certain: you’re in store for some fine entertainment. A Rick Biesanz-type ensemble, “Harmony Grits", will perform in the library on Thursday at 12:00 p.m. to add a little Bluegrass flair to the program. At 1:00 in the Science Amphitheatre, the Two-Bit Players will present “A Taste of Honey”. The production, directed by Ed Dvorak and starring CCC students Mary Nelson, Barbara Brown, Ed Black, Ben Hertel and Raj Louis Nathan will also be performed at the same site Friday and Saturday, May land 2, at 8:15 p.m. Continuing all day Friday and Saturday, April 24 & 25 , will be a ceramic workshop held at School 3. Victor Spinski of the University of Delaware will conduct the program. He is well-known among ceramic artists for his specialty, Raku, a Japanese form of pottery. This technique shapes interesting patterns in the glazing process. On Thursday evening at the Corning Cinema, the Bucknell University Rock/Jazz Ensemble will perform from 8 - 10:00 p.m. and are guaranteed to trigger some “dancin’ in the aisles." Closing out the Prism week will be the “Bottom Of The Bucket But” dance theatre who will perform Friday evening at the Corning Cinema at 8:00 p.m. The theatre performed earlier this year at the Clemens Center in Elmira and were described as “vibrant, dynamic.” Williams 'notguilty' Wnat a black on blonde mohawk hairdo won’t do for you, wearing only shaving cream from the waist up will, or at least it did for the Plasmatics Wendy O. Williams. Ms. Williams finally received the attention she has been striving for, and maybe even a bit more. Ms. Williams, who is commonly known as the Plasmatics Lust Queen, was recently charged with pandering obscenity, in' connection with a January concert at the Agora Night-Club in Cleveland. Williams appeared on stage wearing only shaving cream from the waist up, and making sexually suggestive gestures with a sledghammer and a microphone. A municipal court jury found Ms. Williams not guilty of the charges, which could have held a maximum penalty of six months in jail and a one thousand dollar fine. In her defense, Ms. Williams claimed that what she did on stage was “tame compared with strip shows operating in Cleveland and other (big) cities.” But all is not over for Ms. Williams. With one down and one to go, she now faces similar charges stemming from a Milwaukee concert that took place two days before her Cleveland performance. —Michele O’Heron jSJ 2 El FACES El I stand seeing the faces.

With Mary Hartman laid to rest and the Monty Python guys no longer syndicated on American television, the funny bones of the “art of the risque” TV patrons are not getting the workout they’ve grown accustomed to. Is there no hope for inventive, witty television comedy? Fear not zany-maniacs, a syndicated half-hour Canadian product which satirizes the small, locally-operated television stations has come to the rescue. “SCTV”, formerly called “Second City TV”, is rapidly capturing a responsive American audience through its 55 syndicated outlets. The program was born four years ago in Toronto, and beginning in May will be incorporated into an NBC presentation entitled “Network 90" to be aired after the “Tonight Show” on Fridays. The seven-member cast of “SCTV” writes its own material and are all from Toronto’s branch of the Second City improvisationa! theatre based in Chicago. These people have been working under the decisive hand of executive producer Andrew Alexander who bought the rights for the Second City name in 1974 and shortly afterwards set up the TV show production in an old firehouse. The characters of Channel 109, the ficticious station whose operator will sell anything through tasteless, impromptu advertising, have developed unique on-stage personalities con- sistently appearing in every episode. Johnny LaRue, played by John Candy, is a talk show host who resembles a chain-smoking impersonator clad in a glittery sequined twelve-dollar tuxedo. During one episode he is stuck with reporting on the streets during Channel 109’s attempt to get in touch with the city. LaRue commentates from a deserted, sleezy streetcor-ner in front of a half-lounge, half-bowling lanes whose proprietor, Mr. Gionelli, is tossed in the gutter in front of LaRue. “And here’s our sponsor now”, adlibs LaRue to keep the attention off the corpse. “Mr. Gionelli, can you hear me? It looks like Mr. Gionelli doesn’t want to say anything; I’ll just read the note pinned to his head.” Candy's other personality, Paul Fist-in-your-face, the host for a children’s program, resembles John Steinbeck’s Lenny from Of Mice and Men. During a scene where Fist-in-your-face hosts a guest from a local zoo who brings bunnies, mice and squirrels on the stage, he convinces himself that the vicious little creatures are out to get him. He suddenly screams, explaining that a squirrel is crawling up his pant leg and precedes to beat the animal behind his back and toss it into a cage: “The little squirrel got tired, boys and girls.” Co-anchors of the station’s newscast, Eugene Levy and Joe Flaherty, who use their real names in the program, continually snipe at each other during their news show, battling for the “gotcha last” insult. Flaherty is more of a straight man, while Levy plays a repulsive, crass newsman whose excuse is simply stupidity. He appears to be a Ted Baxter type but somehow lacks the cutting egotism that made the aforementioned character famous. Dave Thomas is a versatile impersonator who often portrays the title character from “Leave It To Beaver”. In one episode, the cast revisited Beaver’s show 25 years later. His Dad is an alcoholic, his brother Wally is a deranged Vietnam veteran, and the nasty Eddie Haskel is as cruel as ever. Beaver is upset because Eddie tantalizes old Ward with a bottle of scotch and so, with the advice of Lumpy Rutherford, blows Eddie’s brains out with a handgun. “Beaver,” asks his father, “what did you do to Eddie?” “Aw gee Dad,” answers the Beav, “Eddie was a real creep so I shot him in the head.” “Beaver, I'm afraid you’ll have to learn your lesson,” lectures his father, “you’re going to fry in the chair, son, but it’s for your own good.” The crew throws out take-offs on everything from detective series like “The Clog", a police drama about a Swedish detective whose weapon is his clogs and who warns the bad guys, “Stop or III shoe”, to soap operas like “Unnecessary Surgeon", about a beloved doctor who cripples and kills his patients through unnecessary surgery. Along with the regular features the gang adds some science fiction with movies like “The Crabs From Nebula 5” and “There’s An Alien In My Soup”. How well this form of comedy will go over on a major network audience remains to be seen. But even if they don’t knock ’em dead nation-side, there’ll always be a warm place for the “SCTV” company in the hearts of Second City natives. Eugene Levy being his normal repulsive self. Let's Put iResponsibility in Student Government! Interstellar REPORTS April 15, 1981 Epsilon Eridani by Leslie Morgan SCC Public Relations y*u aeT A yuo*j s-w/r th&j Robin DeLiCC FOR president The Crier Page 9 We have been on Epsilon Eridani for two and a half weeks and have discovered a primitive civilization. The people are on a slightly higher level than those found on Lalande 21185. Learning from previous experience, Captain Kenner has not made any propositions to the natives. The planet has a long winter and a very short summer due to their orbit around their sun. The natives, being much like humans in form, weave clothing for themselves using the fur that they trade for irom semi-intelligent rabbits. However, during the time we spent on Eridani, there seemed to be a civil war going on. The intelligent rabbits were complaining that the humans took too much of their fur and didn’t pay enough in return. They were on the verge of open warfare when our resident sociologist, Barbara, came to the rescue. Now the rabbits have begun hoarding their fur per Barb’s suggestion. Unfortunately, we discovered the ieason the rabbits had been selling their fur in the first place. If they kept their fur too long, it caused an allergic reaction. In other words, they became violently ill. And the freezing humans weren’t too happy, either. If it hadn’t been for the intervention of Captain Kenner, none of us would have left that planet alive. We are now on our way to Tau Ceti. Hopefully, when we arrive and find some sort of civilization, we will mind our own business. Until my next report, Adio Nunzio’s Nook MARK FIORILLO SPORTS EDITOR The Crier Page 10 American sports fans were given a giant boost with the World Cup victory by Phil Mahre, and a fourth place finish by his brother Steve. Phil snatched first place from the legendary Ingemar Stenmark in the last day of competition. Mahre had a combined time of 2:40.5. good enough for second place, which gave him 266 points at the end of the day. Stenmark ended up second overall with 260 points. Steve Mahre was also impressive during cup competition, coming in fourth with 155 points. '©ie victory was a big one for Steve, b« an even bigger one for skiing in the U. S. For years American skiers have taken the back seat to the European skiers at every competition. The U. S. skiers were labeled as not “hungry” enough for a win. The U.S. has more opoortunities and facilities for skiing than most other countries in the world. Yet, when it came to the Olympics or the World Cup, we were always the last down the hill. 1 don’t think it was because we were not hungry enough, but rather that we were content to be number one only in America. The European countries were always looked at as the powerhouse of the ski slopes. The idea of an American ever beating these giants was absurd. But, with the coming of the 1980 Olympics and the U.S. Hockey team, we saw that we can compete with the powerful ones and beat them. The hockey gold medal and Eric Hieden destroying all in the speed skating events gave us a certain status that made the rest of the world stand up and notice. It was then that our support grew to our skiers as never before. When Phil Mahre took a silver in the giant slalom, we began to point to the future. The future was closer than we thought. What makes Mahre’s victory in the cup even more satisfying was that two years ago Phil shattered his ankle while skiing, and many thought his competitive days were over. But, as more countries are finding out, we don’t quit. Just as the Hockey team was shattered by the Russians weeks before. Phil Mahre left it in the past and came back in flying colors. We now look to the ’84 Winter Olympics. Could there be gold for us then? 1 think so. 1 see Phil Mahre and his brother Steve to start to take charge of skiing events. The U. S. is starting to evolve as a winter sports power. It is not much now, but if we keep the support and cheers coming in all the time, we will be owning both the summer and winter games. Projections You have to admit, I am getting better. Two out of four------that’s .500----not that bad. The Knicks looked as though they didn’t even want to win. In both Chicago victories the Knicks blew a good lead late in the game. Maybe they were scared that they had a chance to win it all? As far as L. A. is concerned, they underestimated Houston more than I did. The Rockets took advantage of an overconfident Laker team. Now the teams move on to the next round. It is now we find out who will have the most momentum to carry them into the finals. Boston vs. Chicago — Chicago was handed their two victories by the Knicks. They won’t have it so easy with Boston. With L. A. out, the Celtics are my pick to win it all. They’ve been playing great as of late, and Tiny Archibald and Larry Bird have been hot: Boston to win series. Philadelphia vs. Milwaukee — — The 76’ers gave themselves a big lift with easy wins over Indiana. The Bucks can play tough ball and will give the 76’ers all they can handle, but Philadelphia is on top of their game and will squeeze out of this one: 76’ers to win series. Houston vs. SanAntonio — A tough series here. This will go seven games. Houston is high after their upset over L. A., but will be brought down to earth by the spurs. San An- tonio has a good chance to make it to the finals: San Antonio to win series. Kansas City vs. Phoenix - Ford and company have had a taste of victory and love it. K. C. will go in with a full head of steam against the Suns. Phoenix will give a fight, but K. C. should cool Phoenix and advance: Kansas City to win series. WHAT SCHOOLS WERE THEY?

CCC’s baseball team was apparently shaking off its doubleheader loss to Erie Community College on Friday which left Coming with a 2 - 4 record overall. The Canadian club ran away with a 10 -0 lead in the first three innings, but the Barons quickly evened up in the top of fourth passing home plate a record ten times, with a total of eight CCC runners reaching base before the first out. Spotlighting the power-packed inning was a three-run homer by Kogoe Boateng and a grand slam homer by Jeff Ayers which tied the score. Ayers was by far the top slugger of the game sending yet two more balls over the fence in the eighth and 10th innings. Boateng also had a solo homer in the eighth which left Coming with a 14 - 12 lead in the top of the inning. But a two-run homer by Seneca evened up the score in the bottom of the eighth.
