Volume XI—Number 11 CORNING COMMUNITY COLLEGE November 30, 1971 Draft Expert Lands at Corning ‘Beach’ Land-locked Les Rosenbloom strikes a nautical pose while discussing his sailboat at the "Meet the Professor” series November 16. Photo by Dan White " Six-Pack ' Arlo Tatum, Conscientious Objector, Discusses Draft by DEBBIE PRICE CRIER STAFF REPORTER In this weeks "Meet the Professor Series,” Les Rosenbloom. Assistant Professor of Business Administration, talked on sailing on the Finger Lakes. This was presented by Rose Ann Ewanyk of the Commons Committee in room 209-210. Les’ first love was sailing, which he learned on the Charles River when he was living in Boston. He doesn't sail for speed or competition, but merely for pleasure. When Mr. Rosenbloom was deciding to buy his first sailboat, it was a normal procedure with questions as to what kind, how big, and which one suited him best. After limiting the number down to about two or three, he chose the one boat with a cooler built in it. This is how he got the name of “the six-pack sailor.” Since he only sails for pleasure, he’s all set with his In the Crier Campus Colloquy . . p. 5 Classified Ads .... p. 5 Columns...................p. 4 Crossword ................p. 5 Editorials ...............p. 2 Gort......................p. 5 Readers Reaction ... p. 3 Sports....................p. 6 equipment, a nice day. and a six-pack. Mr. Rosenbloom continues telling the group about some of his experiences with the faculty. One such experience being on Seneca Lake, near Sampson, with Jack Wills, who after being with Les for awhile, was ready to get off the boat. They seemed to run into some difficulties trying to get off the boat. They seemed to run into some difficulties trying to get out of the harbor. Another more recent experience occurred on Keuka Lake with Dave Frank. Other members who have accompanied Les were Clark Maloney, Bob Finlay, and Ron Hoffess. Whether bad or good experiences, everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. At this point, the group went outside to view the twelve foot sailboat. Les gave some details about his boat, such as. it’s having a wide beam, therefore would be very difficult to overturn and the sails being eighteen feet high with an area of ninety six square feet. The boat is controlled by two things: 1) the sheet, which controls the sail, and 2) the tiller which controls the steering. He also showed some of the different things the boat is equipped with, besides his cooler. Mr. Rosenbloom now says he is ready to sell his beginner boat and go on to something bigger and more challenging. A large group was fascinated and gathered around to see the boat. It was a very interesting topic. by PAT JONES CRIER STAFF REPORTER Arlo Tatum, who is a draft expert on draft law and a long time conscientious objector, spoke to interested students at C.C.C. on Friday. November 19 from 11 to 12 p.m. in the large lounge of the Commons. Mr. Tatum is more well-known as the National Secretary of CCCO, an Agent for Draft Counseling, and author of Handbook for Conscientious Objectors and Guide to Draft. This program was sponsored by the Student Government, ICC. Home-front, and the Commons Committee. Mr. Tatum discussed many areas which included the new draft law and its ramifications to the students at C.C.C., the new regulations, the lottery, and also, the different classifications of the selective service system. In the area of classifications, the ones that brought about the right to appeal to council were thoroughly explained. Some of these included 1-A, 1-AO and 4-G. If you had a son. father, or brother who was killed or missing in action in the Viet Nam war. you will be classified as 4-G. which enables you not to be drafted. This has been in effect since December 30, 1959. New changes in classifications WASHINGTON (LNS) — “For campus militants who tried to destroy ROTC." asserts Dr. George C. S. Benson, Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Education, "they may have won a few skirmishes — but they lost the war.” And in fact it seems that way. According to a recent U.S. News and World Report, there are more Reserve Officers’ Training Corps units on college campuses this fall than ever before despite 400 anti-ROTC actions in 1969-70 and 110 in 1970-71. Only 11 universities have voted to end ROTC and 15 new units have been formed—seven at predominantly black colleges. "Of the 11 colleges which voted us off campus," said Benson, "all but one were in New York or New England. The exception was Stanford in California. Most of them are private and elite. We didn’t lose a great deal in Harvard, Yale and the like. which will come into effect at the end of December were also fully explained. These included: 1- Y which will be eliminated at the end of this year. 4- F brings about a re-examination. After this re-examination. if you pass you become 1-A, if you flunk, 4-F is your classification. 2- S is being phased out. This is the college deferment. Those students who qualified from being in college before may be deferred. Freshman students will not be able to be deferred. 2-A is almost the same as 2-S except it concerns students in two year colleges and trade schools. The qualifications for deferment are the same. 1-H begins in January. Unless you are physically handicapped which is evident, you are then classified as 1-H. 5- H over A will be eliminated. This affected Mr. Tatum. They may raise standards for preinduction. Mr. Tatum then discussed the lottery numbers and the cut off for the year. The registrants above the cut off number stay 1-H, numbers below the cut off point receive a classification questionnaire which is filled out “We have several new units in what are predominantly black colleges and I would really rather have them than Harvard and the others. In the first place we need black officers. In the Ivy League there are tremendous pressures on the black students — militant pressures. In the black colleges, a lot of that pressure is missing. They realize that the Negro still has to fight his way forward and the armed forces have been the fairest arena in U.S. life.” ROTC enrollment figures for the 1971-72 school year are expected to equal last year’s 114,950 but that figure is down severely from the 218,466 cadets enrolled in 1968-69. The Pentagon points to changes pending in the draft laws, and to the many schools who have dropped compulsory ROTC (only 32 colleges now make ROTC compulsory) as the reasons for the drop in enrollment. And they have some schemes up their sleeve to change that, namely more scholarships, doubled subsistence payments and and processed. This year the cut off number was between 100 and 125. Mr. Tatum predicts that next year, the cut off will be between 75 and 100. Also mentioned was the new 150 which is a new application form that has 4 pages and 22 questions to be answered. There is also hope that a new CO form spreads word requirements. The political aspects were discussed. A main question mentioned was: How do you scale down the size of volunteers and in the face of volunteers, keep the draft going? Answers he gave were by offering discharges 5 months early, or by refusing to permit vets to reenlist. Mr. Tatum spoke about the growth problem and finally what this year’s election time had to do with what was being done about the problem. To end the program Mr. Tatum asked for questions, objections and discussions. He got a very good response and advised many students about what would be the best bet with their lottery numbers and their classifications. Afterward many students went forward for a personal talk with Mr. Tatum. This program was very successful and interesting and the response of the audience proved it. compensation to the schools for out-of-pocket expenses they incur in supporting the units on campus. Two of these improvements — pay and scholarships—are pending in Congress now and if passed in this session, would go into effect in the 1971-72 school year. The number of scholarships available each year to the Army and Air Force would be raised to 6,500 — an increase of 1000 per service and the number alloted to the Navy would be 6,000—an increase of 500. The value of these scholarships, depending on the school, ranges from $500 to $3,000 a year with the average around $1,600. Subsistence pay to scholarship and nonscholarship cadets would be boosted from $50 to $100 a month. All in all, if the money is approved by Congress, the ROTC budget will rise from its present $129 million a year to $168 million in 1973 and $187 million in 1976. ROTC Stages a Comeback Editorially Speaking The Pomposity of Labor by JAMES WILLIS MANAGING EDITOR In an attempt to thwart President Nixon’s economic strategy, unionized labor has threatened to walk off the pay board set up primarily for Phase II. Naturally, George Meany, the AF of L-CIO leader, is one of the major forces perpetrating the dissension. This time, however, Meany faces tough opposition among his own ranks if he attempts a coup d’etat of sorts that is meant to undermine the new economic programs. United Auto Workers President Leonard Woodcock and Teamsters President Frank Fitzsimmons, two of labor’s five members on the fifteen-man pay board, are making no plans whatsoever for a walk-off, much to Meany & Co.’s chagrin. Meany does not want to see a disunited labor and his refusal to remain on the board may help to accomplish that. It must be realized that Meany, a highly bombastic creature, would like to put one last tin medal on his chest before retiring to bring the U.A.W. and the Teamsters under the protective wing of the A.F. of L-C.I.O., thereby creating a labor monstrosity having no limits that would answer to no one but itself. It would, in effect, bear a strong resemblance to Meany himself. George Meany and his cohorts are remaining blind to the fact that the President’s two-phase economic plan has been successful above expectations. Interest rates have fallen substantially, benefiting businesses and consumers alike. Unemployment has dropped from 6.1% to 5.8% and is continuing its decrease at a steady rate. Prices on the wholesale spectrum fell again in October. Rents and wages are at a standstill. Industrial output, retail sales, and the auto industry have been booming since the original freeze began in mid-August. Last week, Miami set the stage for Meany’s attempted walk-off as the AFL-CIO held its biennial labor convention. Democratic presidential hopefuls were to lead a parade of an anti-Nixon-ism and opposition to the pay board, but Nixon surprised everyone by his appearance at the lavish affair. Nixon was treated badly and unfairly by the caucus, probably in an effort to reiterate Meany’s protest against the board: “. . . if we cannot achieve our objectives we will not co-operate.” Meany. whose oratory has been aptly described as a cross between William Jennings Bryan and Casey Stengel, has not only disenchanted his followers, but more than likely lost TRUTH INTHE NEWS Truth in the news—but truth tempered with mercy, decency and humility. Truth in the news — which encompasses telling fairly and intelligently what the news means, the background, not just parrot-like recording. Truth in the news—which can encompass hatred of tolerance and oppression or pushing folks around. Tell the facts. Truth in the news—but truth dedicated to high ideals, community service, national service, with a first obligation the readers' right to know. That’s our first and eternal job and responsibility. That’s what I mean by responsibility of the press. This I believe. Roy A. Roberts Former President Kansas City Star George Meany his hope of a tin medal, for after Nixon’s rough treatment, Teamsters President Fitzsimmons made a cordial invitation to the President, assuring him that there would be no AFL-CIO-type of harassment. Meany appears to have lost his “magnetic” genius to bring labor together. His outcries that Phase II will permanently abolish the operation of collective bargaining are falling on deaf ears. Perhaps it is time for George to take a hard look in the mirror and realize that the ‘little plumber’ is just not reaching his constituents and that a united labor can and should become only as powerful as the people will allow it to. Labor has now reached a rung on the ladder of power that is one step too high for its own good. This is my opinion.

Credit Congratulations on the fine job you and your staff are doing on the Crier. I have read this publication ever since it started at C.C.C. and the issues this year are far superior to any of your predecessors. In my opinion, you present both ends of a question fairly—with objectivity and intelligence. Keep up the good job. You are a credit to C.C.C. Sincerely, Frederick W. Parsons Corning with a feeling of great satisfaction and knowledge that her talents were appreciated to no end. Keep up the good work. KIDS, what this college needs is about 2080 more people like you. Then we can rename the school as Corning Community Nursery. Sincerely. Sally Chamberlain Vikin Speaks Members of the Southern Tier Chapter of the American Society of Certified Engineering Technicians heard a discussion of “The Perils of Growing Technology" at a dinner meeting Friday, Nov. 19, at Lowery's Restaurant, Big Flats. Mr. Joseph Vikin. Associate Professor of Chemistry at Corning Community College, was the guest speaker. Arrangements for Prof. Vikin were handled through the Faculty Speakers Bureau, a community service of the Division of Continuing Education at the College. Movies Unfair To the Editor: After driving from Horseheads to Corning for three Sundays in a row, we have been unable to attend the movies offered to CCC students. We realize that one purpose of this college is to serve the community, however, we feel that the first responsibility is to the students. The policy of making campus films open to the townspeople has severely diminished the service to students. We have found that the seats that should be available to the students are filled with Corning citizens. The seats should first be filled with the students of CCC and their guests, and then the remaining space to non-students. Thank you, Dave Neely Debbie Wolfe Being No. 1 Scores Low NEW YORK (LNS) — According to a poll solicited by the Wall Street Journal, a "sizeable minority of the American public just don’t care whether they're No. 1 in everything. More than 30% say that, as a general concept. the idea of the U.S. being No. 1 in the world simply isn't important to them." 67% supported the concept while 3% had no opinion. To some of those interviewed, in fact, the idea of being No. 1 was more than not important—it was repugnant. An Aspen. Colorado newspaper editor voiced the views of nearly two thirds of the dissenters. “I think it’s a great mistake to try to be first. The people of the world have to live together without the thought of who's supreme. It’s a very bad attitude. Rather than trying to be first, we should try to be more civilized —to get along with our neighbors and allocate money to pressing domestic issues.” An analysis of the survey by age groups showed that among those 30 to 39 years old, 76.6% wanted to be No. 1 while among those 20 to 29, only 60.8% shared that view. Some people, including yourself, may not think you are talented. We do. Join us. Give us a chance to prove your worth. We are the Crier. Gayle Barr Plays by PAT JONES CRIER STAFF REPORTER On November 15th and 16th, the commons Committee presented their coffeehouse which featured Gayle Barr. Gayle made a morning appearance at 11:30 and afternoon appearance at 1:30, on both Monday and Tuesday, in the large lounge of the Student Commons. Miss Barr has played and sang in many areas all over including a circuit in Boston and Ithaca. The songs that Gayle sang varied in types; however, most of the songs she sang while at C.C.C. were from past hits, written by past performers in the musical world. An enthusiastic response from the large crowd that attended, was given to Gayle at each of her four sessions. The coffeehouse started in success, and was a great success right to the last song. Gayle Barr enchanted the Corning students Tuesday and Wednesday. Photo by Dan White JOIN THE CRIER STAFF Draft Counseling Are you having problems with the draft? JOSEPH J.

Eve’s Rib Column Right! In Defense of Defense by JOAN ROZENGATA CRIER COLUMNIST The weekend of November 13. might possibly mark the beginning of an interesting election year. In Albany, a conference, "Women: A Political Force," urged women to actively enter politics. Rep. Bella Abzug, D-N.Y., advised women to take the initiative and elbow their way into the political ring, because no one else will do it for them. Recommendations for legislation were put forth at a workshop held Saturday. Random examples of the recommendations were: income tax deduction for child care and the return of rights (e.g. voting) to convicts who have served their sentences. Sunday, the 14th, was devoted to a "school for candidates" for the political hopefuls that are new to the games of political campaigns. Also on Sunday, congresswoman Shirley Chisholm announced her presidential bid. Stating she had support from every faction—black, white, young and old. she commented, “of all the candidates ... I am the best thing going right now." Although she sounded as if she had her eyes on the history books when she said everyone would "remember Shirley Chisholm was at Miami in 1972." it was putting her thoughts into action—or as she put it. “while other people are busy moping.” It's extremely doubtful she will even make the Democratic nomination, although there are organ-zations supporting her in 27 states. With the current wave of women's rights and the renewed interest in the female role, it will be interesting to watch how she does in this political race of national prominence. Black on White by JIM STYLES CRIER COLUMNIST Power, brothers and sisters! Hats off to and proudly salute CCC's Spark Students of the Month; Suzanne Randall and Dyke Driscoll. Suzanne hails from Bronx (yea) N.Y. and is 18 years of age. Her interests when she is not deep in a book are dancing, reading and as she informs me “partying". She graduated Salutatorian from Laurinburg Institute in her hometown, wow, and after she finishes her studies in the legal secretary's program at CCC she plans to go even further and become a lawyer, and I can dig a woman lawyer. Right on! Dyke Driscoll, an avid athlete, come to CCC from Orlando, Florida, where he graduated from Apopka Memorial High School. Dyke's goals after attaining his A.S. degree at CCC are to continue his education at Morgan State University, with hopes of playing football at that college in mind. He tells me his love interests don’t as yet include a steady girl, "But I am looking”. In Dyke's own words. "Power to the Brothers at 245 Denison Pkway and at CCC." Beautiful. Dyke and Suzanne, keep up the good work.

JEFFERY CRIER COLUMNIST The Defense Establishment has been taking some pretty rough treatment lately and I feel that it is about time we face the issue. People seem to be willing to band wagon and attack thoughtlessly anything nowadays. Money is the main concern of the anti-defense league. They seem to feel that our national security is costing too much. Much of the high cost of armaments is because the workers of America are racing each other to see who can get paid the most for doing the least. When you ask why a jet fighter bomber costs so much, look at your own per hour wage and then it becomes self-evident. The costs of stationing, paying and supplying troops takes another large chunk of money. The income of an enlisted soldier is damn near poverty level and more money should be granted in this area. Need I say anything about why food for these men costs so much. The amount of research devoted to defense is another complaint of the "mouths" of our society. Atomic power is a reality because of defense research as is nylon. Come see the "Craziest Show on Earth" ... a donkey basketball game. That's right. A donkey basketball game! "Stubborn as a mule” best sums up the happening when a group of local men match wits with Bucking Pete. Sugar. Old Tiger. Elvis. Suicide, and the rest of the donkeys that will be in the big game. The game will be played at 8 p.m. Tuesday. November 30 in the Corning Community College Gymnasium. Advanced tickets may be purchased in the Common's Lobby at CCC or at Brown’s Cigar Store on Market St. in Corning. Advanced tickets are $.75 for students and $1.00 for adults. Admission at the door will be $1.00 for students and $1.25 for adults. Shaw Brothers Sports.

It would indeed be nice if killing and hostility were non-existent, but it's a fact. People in the world are out to "bury" us one way or another. We must do our best to be prepared. The money it costs us is also helping the economy and feeding families. The research must be applicable two ways and serve as a boom rather than as a bust. When an I.C.B.M. is bearing down on the fat heads who were always cutting defense down, I would like to see if they told that our preparedness was costing too much then.

Craziest Show on Earth... page 4 the Crier/November 30, 1971 Campus Colloquy: by Jenkin Lloyd Jones CrOSS WORD - - - By Eugene Sheffer The Art of the Possible Editor’s Note: (Editor of the Tulsa Tribune since 1941, Jenkin Lloyd Jones Is also a syndicated columnist whose articles appear in 150 newspapers nationwide. Recipient of the William Allen White Award In 1957, and past president of both the American Society of Newspaper Editors and the United States Chamber of Commerce, Mr. Jones is an expert on world travel, having toured 110 countries in four round-the-world trips, and having authored in 1964 a book titled “The Changing World.”) There is only one thing wrong with young idealists. They haven’t been around long enough to understand the Art of the Possible. They have plenty of righteous indignation, plenty of justified impatience at the stupid things that their elders have done, plenty of causes and zeal. It is at the trade-off where they fall down. Nearly every change in human affairs is a trade-off. There are benefits. There are costs. The automobile is a great convenience. Its exhaust is a cost. An anti-pollution exhaust system is another cost. It makes cars more expensive or less powerful, or both. We must judge how much we want to trade off for an undoubted benefit. We are constantly saying, "There oughta be a law!” A law is an effort to restrain destructive human conduct and force desirable human conduct. It curbs the freedom of the individual, ostensibly for the benefit of the mass. The university radical demands the utmost in personal freedom. He also embraces economic philosophies that require a high degree of regimentation and restraints upon the individual. He can’t have it both ways.

The Salem witch-burners really thought they were confounding the Devil. In the 16th century, half the population of Germany died in honest dispute over the will of God. The Terror of the French Revolution was created by men who thought they had the key to ultimate justice. Wisdom is an understanding of the trade-off. The rich record of human experience is a useful guide. The fevered leader who says that “history is irrelevant’’ is trying to burn the maps and throw away the compasses. Older people tend to exaggerate the undesirability of change. They have carved out their niches. They are comfortable. They have lost their creative zeal and fear newness merely because it is new. They need to be shaken up. But because new approaches are not necessarily evil, it does not follow that change must be good. Throughout the history of the world those who burnt the libraries, toppled the lighthouses, gutted the temples and destroyed the seats of learning were all convinced that any change must be an improvement. As we look back upon the dark ages that usually followed the dying fires we know better—or should. A young person is entitled to make mistakes. But no one who has a normal mentality is entitled to be stupid. As soon as one can read one forfeits the right to ignore “Bridge Out" and “High Voltage" signs. Most good things carry penalties. The invention of a sewer system sweetened back yards but fouled rivers. Control of epidemic diseases has produced the population explosion. The unbreakable plastic bottle helps clog the city dumps. The Art of the Possible involves detecting the difference between good winds that blow some ill, and ill winds that blow some good. It involves the difficult and distressing business of sifting confusions to develop a reasonable course of action. It is too complicated to be put on a waved placard. It won't fit into a glib slogan. It requires brain effort. Zeal and passion are useful for getting something moving. But the quality of what is put into motion is the first and overwhelming obligation of the mover. Advertising Farce NEW YORK (LNS)—A recently released study indicates that most environmental advertising is done by industries which do the most polluting. The Council on Economic Priorities studied 1970 environmental advertising in all issues of Time, Newsweek, and Business Week magazines. It concluded that $3.3 million, or over half, of the $6 million spent on such ads was spent by the iron and steel, electric utilities, petroleum, chemical and paper industries. A recent McGraw Hill study named these same five industries as the country’s worst polluters, the Council said. The paper industry was first in advertising volume with seven companies placing 47 of the 289 pages of advertising. Six of these seven companies were named in an earlier Council study as having "distinctly unimpressive environmental records." St. Regis, International Paper, Potlatch Forests, and Hammer-mill, all paper manufacturers were noted as having "the most neglectful histories of all in controlling pulp mill pollution." The report further criticizes both General Motors and Ford for "overstating their accomplishments in controlling auto emissions and underplaying the impact of these emissions on the environment.” While both companies claim 65 to 80 per cent emission reduction on 1971 cars, these figures "apply only to a limited number of proto-type engines," the Council said. The environmental ads of Standard Oil of New Jersey, Texaco, U. S. Steel, and Armco Steel were compared by the Council with news reports of their environmental performances. “The images created by generalized claims are not consistent with those conveyed by specifics in the news," the Council states, “and the public is left unsure of what corporations are actually doing.” ACROSS 1.

Displaying strength in the light and middle weights, the Baron grapplers pounded the TC green and white 39-15. At 118 pounds Coming's Dave Folmar walloped a surprised opponent early and registered a : 55 second pin. Folmar. a classy manipulator from Coming East, showed promise of becoming a top college matman. Last year's stalwart at 118 Dan Bunner moved to 126 pounds for this season and was pitted against Mack Sams, second runner up in Regional III competition in last year’s tourney. Sams, who has an impressive and virtually unblemished record, was more than a match for the tired Bunner. TC’s first six points flashed on the board as Sams nailed Bunner to the mat. The 134 pound class featured rugged Pat Barnes, co-captain and second in the region last year. Barnes, a stylish and aggressive wrestler, overwhelmed his opponent probably more with confidence than actual ability. After convincingly whipping his man, Barnes scored a pin with mechanical coolness. First year man Tom McNerny of Elmira stepped in at 142 pounds and showed some lightning speed in a long, bean pole body. Recovering from a series of what could have been costly mistakes, McNerny piled up nine erratic points and emerged victorious, 9-4. The middle weights. 150 and 158, were forfeited to the Barons, as TC had no representatives in these classes. Tough Marc Gillespie, a high school sectional champion from Haverling, is the Baron 150 pounder and should show up well this season. At 158. co-captain Phil Schweiger has the strength and raw guts to lead the team to a regional championship. The 167 pound class is the property of Jim Brown, understudy of regional champ Eric Knuutila last year. Brown proved he can play the leading role as well. Looking skillful and confident in the red and white of Corning. Brown handled himself as a champion. An intelligent and plodding wrestler, Brown takes advantage of his opponent's every mistake, as he did against TC when he scored an exciting second period pin. From Notre Dame comes state diocese champion Emad Faddoul at 177 pounds. Faddoul is a very deceiving wrestler, confusing and fooling his man to believe that he has a chance to win. No chance. The Lebonese Wonder is not showy or flashy, but definitely a winner, as he was against Tompkins - Cortland, chalking up a big pin. Faddoul should be a major factor in Cor-ning’s drive for the Regional championship. This year, just as last year, the Barons seem to have a minor problem in the heavy weights. Mark Donahue, a tough and determined Vietnam War veteran, has promise but is rusty from a long layoff at 190 pounds. Donahue battled a hard nosed TC grappler down to the final horn, only to lose in the last 30 seconds, 18-15 (an unbelieve-able score). In the heavy-weight unlimited division, Horseheads’ Paul Tomkins was a pre-season pick to clean up most opponents. However, Tomkins, also rusty after a year lay-off. had a case of the jitters in front of the home crowd fans. Not showing any of his potential ability, Tomkins was pinned in a sloppily fought match. The Red Baron matmen appear to have an inside track to the Region III Wrestling championship. Showing a typically balanced attack and a more typical determination, the Polo Players have the personnel to smother all opposition. The competition, by the end of this current season will be pretty sick of the view of the ceiling. No wrestler really enjoys being on his back. Jackass Game On Tuesday. November 30, 1971. there will be a donkey basketball game held in the Coming Community College gymnasium. The two teams will be composed of the faculty and staff versus the townees.

At the door, they will be a quarter more for both. Come, have a good time, and help. by DOUG STONE (AFS) "He was the best linebacker we ever had on the freshman team,” Oregon State's football coach said. But this spring “he marched into my office and told me he wasn’t coming out. I couldn't believe it. It made me sick to see what I was seeing. He was wearing sandals. No socks. His hair was down to his shoulders. He had a long beard. It was hell for me. The kid just turned my stomach. I recruited that boy thinking he was Jack Armstrong. I was wrong. He turned out to be a free thinker.” Somewhere, way back in the corner of America’s locker rooms, past the tapered torsos, tree stump calves and stretched out jocks, there's a strong odor. It is clearly not the smell of sweaty men and their grubby equipment. It is something more subtle. It’s the smell that something is wrong here among the all-American boys and the system that breeds them. Black athletes know the stench because they grew up with it. Now some of their white teammates are lifting their heads and sniffing the air. The phenomenon has been dubbed the “jock revolution” and is just as evident here in the heartland as it is on the coasts. 100 Schools Hit In all, athletic programs at more than 100 schools have been the target of some sort of protest since 1967, according to Jack Scott, the unofficial leader of the athletic revolution. Scott is also the founder of the Institute for the Study of Sport and Society in Berkeley. Even in such an un- likely place as Wyoming, several high school basketball and football players in two communities quit teams rather than play for a dictatorial coach. Many athletes, including Steve Church, are speaking out and the dozens of loosely organized protests have various goals. Some are seeking greater respect from hardline coaches and doctrinaire athletic departments. Others are protesting specific grievances or practices such as racial slurs or discrimination. "Blacks and whites were separated physically and culturally,” Church said. "The white athletes generally lived in fraternity houses, while the blacks lived in dorms. The black athletes were much more aware of their own dignity than the whites. They began to reject the subservient position coaches put players in. They understood the myth of athletics: that they build character, that they build men, that victory is the highest goal." Church’s political leanings got him into trouble more than once with his white teammates. After he attended an antiwar rally in Chicago in 1969, many players stopped talking to him. Church was labelled "activist" by white players when he worked in a group that supported a black takeover of the campus administration building. The inescapable analogies between the military and the college football structure also began to get to Church. Football coaches, like the Marine Corps, are interested in building "men.” “Warmth was always trying to instill this false sense of manhood in us." Church said.
