A CCC Student Publication Vol. 18, No. 3, September 22,1977 Stud. Govt. Seeks New Room Students of CCC, we need your help!! We have been battling for four months -all summer long - to move our Student Government Office to a functional location upstairs in the Commons Building. But all we get is the runaround, while everyone else gets the offices they need in the Commons but Student Government is always the last to get anything, especially information. We are here for one reason and for one reason only - to serve you. But we cannot do that if you don’t know where we are or how to get to your student leaders. We do not sit in the office all that much — most of the time the Executive Board is walking around speaking with you. But once we get your opinions and feelings on issues of importance, they then must be put on paper to be submitted to Student Government. We MUST have a suitable place to work. Our present location is. downstairs in the Com- mons in what we call “A hole in the wall.” No one should have to put up with the intense noise levels from the juke box in Spencer Pub, and the rat problem we finally settled by plugging up the many openings in the walls. During the winter months, that office has ice crystals on the wall - the heat has not worked in there for years. We th'ink that it is about time that Student Government stood up and took its rightful position of responsibility on this campus. We cannot do this if they put us way out in the middle of nowhere. We have the right people, the experience, and many others who give a damn. Now what is it going to be - do we fight or do you want us to do nothing? If you’re concerned, and we hope that you are, tell your senators which way to vote. Respectfully, George C. Fogarty President Of Student Government Vandals Wreak Havoc In Commons Vandals tore up the men’s bathroom downstairs in the Commons during the APC Social, Friday, September 9. The damage was discovered by Security Officer Gil Daggett at 1:30 a.m. He had last checked the bathroom at 12:45 a.m. The vandals tore toilet paper dispensers off the stall walls and broke the plastic gratings off the lights over the sinks. They then tried to flush everything down the toilet. Three ceiling tiles were also damaged. ‘‘This vandalism makes me sick. It is something you expect from junior high students not college,” said James Chapman, Director of Campus Security. “If this happens again, we may have to consider posting security in the bathrooms during events on campus. I hope we don’t have to do this." APC Means Entertainment Our main purpose is to provide the students of this institution with a means of relaxation and a course of entertainment, as well as other services. We accomplish this by bringing you daytime entertainment. This is held in the Large Lounge between 12-2 p.m. If anyone is interested in this committee please contact Rick Bie-sanz in the Nursing Building. We also put on the socials (kegs). Our first one of the year was held September 9th. We felt that this event went over rather well. Our next one is scheduled for October 21 in the main dining room of the Commons. We would like to see a lot more people there — admission is $1.50. If any student has a band they would like to see up here contact us in the APC office - located on the backside of the Commons downstairs; or leave a message in Box 2A in U208. We have one other major service to the student. This area consists of tickets to concerts, Corning Cinema, Grand Prix, and others that might come up that we feel that would be of interest to the students. Presently all tickets are being issued from the used bookstore. These tickets can be purchased at the following times: Monday 10-11;1 Tuesday 10-12; Wednesday 10-11; Thursday 1-3; and Friday 10-11. There is one policy con- cerning our socials. No beer is to be taken out of the Main Dining Room. Also, there is a college policy that permits all students to bring one guest per student to our events. London Trip Meetings Two information meetings have been scheduled for the London Theater Trip sponsored by the Communications Division at CCC during mini-mester (Dec. 29 - Jan. 20.) Michael Gilmartin, Associate Professor of English and coordinator of the excursion, will be in the Small Lounge of the Student Commons on Campus on Tuesday, Sept. 20 from 12:30 to 1:30 and Wednesday, Sept. 21, from 1:00 to 2:00 p.m. He will explain the trip when taken for course credit (TH 200) and answer questions on passport procedure, air accommodations, lodging and stateside transportation. Any area residents interested are invited to attend the information meetings or contact Prof. Gilmartin at the college for an ap- pointment if unable to attend. Notice Absolute last call .. Students enrolled in HS-100 Achievement Motivation - Section 01 the week of Sept. 30, must report to Joe Hanock - in Room N 304 by next Friday, Sept. 23rd. Rape Expert Here Lt. Carol A. Kope, Director of the Bureau of Sex Crimes for the Westchester County Sheriff’s Department, will be at CCC on September 29 in a series of day-time workshops and for an 8:00 p.m. convocation at East High School. Members of all law enforcement agencies as well as area residents are invited to attend the sessions without charge. In 1974, Lt. Kope was successful in implementing years of research into rape with the establishment of the Bureau of Sex Crimes Analysis in Westchester County, the first in a suburban, countrywide law enforcement level in the country. The Bureau offers especially trained female and male Sex Crime Invest- igators to assist local police in securing the necessary information with the least amount of trauma to the victim and her family. Working with the Westchester County hospitals, Lt. Kope helped establish special operating procedures beneficial to both the victim and the police. At her urging, the hospitals obtained the Sirchie Rape Evidence Kits to be used during examination of rape/sodomy victims. These kits maintain the chain of evidence necessary at the time of trial. In addition to her investigative duties, her educational and training programs for law enforcement agencies throughout the state, her appearance on documentaries, and collab- orating on two books on rape, her most recent venture has been the establishment of a volunteer psychological panel. The panel of investigators and psychologists meet monthly in the hope of developing a psychological profile of the sex offender. She has successfully combined a career in which she personally has handled over sex crime victims with a career as a wife of a special education teacher for fourteen years and the mother of four children. The Arts and Convocation Committee at CCC will entertain special requests from law enforcement agencies in the area for specials sessions with Lt. Kope. 2 THE CRIER, THURSDA Y, SEPTEMBER 22, 1977 VANDALS MAKE US SICK The people who vandaliz7 ed the downstairs men’s bathroom in the Commons make us sick. We were under the impression that the students on this campus were adults. We wonder why people who are paying for a college education would destory college property. The days are past when your parents paid for vandalism costs through their school taxes. The people who pay for vandalism on a college campus are the students. College is expensive enough without having to pay for the mindless destruction of college property by a group of cretins. Our reaction to this unnecessary and criminal destruction of college property was anger followed by the thought of “bulls—t.” We think that is the most appropriate word to describe these actions. These actions are the actions of juvenile minds that have no place in college. The actions of these few students make it rough for the rest of the students who wouldn’t even think of, let alone commit, an act of vandalism. If these atrocities continue to be commit- Thrust And Parry By JOHN T. OLCOTT Managing Editor I Like . . . After spending three issues telling you things I do not like, I think it is time you know about a few things I do like. Besides the fact I promised myself that I would be nice and bland for a change. You knt)w, when you are a con-terversal genius like me it is hard to write nonthought provoking prosaic pieces but I will try. Let us see now, what do I like, hmmmmm... I like rats At least I like domesticated ones. They are smart, cuddly and affectionate. Unlike the guinea pig, rats are not timid. They make great pets. Buy your kid sister one, she will love it. I like girls with long black hair. I like theater. Where else in this world can you make a complete fool of yourself and be applauded for it? Besides, I get a kick out of wearing makeup. I like eating squid. I have had it heavily spiced and in a soup. No joking, squid is really good. Serve it to your grandparents, but do not tell them what they are eating until they are through. I like girls with short blond hair. I like Bert Lance. At last somebody is striking back at the witch hunters. Pity he is not a Republican. I like Western Civilization. Where other cultures have stagnated and collapsed, Western Culture has remained flexible and adaptive. Because of its structure we have built the greatest civilization and culture in world history. I like Darth Vadar. He was by far the most impressive creature in what is by far the most impressive film in the last decade. I like girls with mediums length red hair. I like Corning Community College. I think it is one of the greatest (snicker) institutions of higher learning (He, He) in New York (Ha!) I like the United States. I like it better Bhan any other country except East Krogs-tad. Come to think of it, I like girls, period. As you have probably guessed by now, I did not really have any idea for an editorial. You have not experienced panic until you are an hour before deadline and still have no editorial. Well, with a little bit of luck it will not happen a-gain. P.S. I just got finished reading Ric’s editorial. Well, that just proves that great minds think alike. Notice however he stole my idea! ted on our campus, the administration may have no choice but to post Security in the bathrooms just like in junior high school. Wouldn’t that be nice? We hope the college is never forced to take actions of such serious nature. We hope that the mindless dolts who com- mitted these atrocities a-gainst college property, our property, that outrage and enrage us are caught, expelled from school, and prosecuted to the full extent of the law. It is the brainless few that ruin things for the great majority of students that attend this fine school. 0*N*I5* MAN’S OPINION By RICHARD I. SMITH Editor-in-Chief Thoughts I think I’m going to steal an idea from my illustrious managing editor, John T. Olcott, and lay a short summary of my thoughts on some subjects on you. Hopefully these will elicit some response from you. ‘It really does not matter if Bert Lance is guilty of breaking the law. He is almost undoubtedly guilty of unethical practices that pose questions about President Jimmy Carter’s administration. ‘The American radical left is dying, if not dead already. The surrender of Mark Rudd, Jerry Rubin’s religious conversion, and Abbie Hoffman’s run from the law on a cocaine bust has destroyed the leadership of the 60’s. ‘Television commercials cause mental sterility. Someday, we will all own Veg-o-matics and Elvis Presley’s greatest hits. *1 hope a Democrat wins the New York Mayoral race but I would not want the job if I had any political hopes for the future. ‘Marxism is a political philosophy that has no relevance to today’s world. It has never worked the way Karl Marx predicted and leads to totalitarianism. *1 admire G. Gordon Liddy for his loyalty and refusal to make money from Watergate. I detest him for refusing to admit he was wrong. ‘Ronald Regan is a dangerous man. If the United States ever elects him president I am leaving the country. ‘Farrah Fawcett is not a pretty girl. She looks glamorous but she is not pretty. There is a definite difference. *1 wonder if there is a lot of deaf-mutes on campus. Ev-erytime I say hello to people they don’t even blink let alone answer my greeting. I would appreciate any information on the subject. *1 sometimes get the feeling that I am practicing mental onanism when I do this column. Well, that is all I can write today. This is the easy way out of a column. Especially when I’ve got a giant writer’s block. Thank you. THE CRIER, THURSDA Y, SEPTEMBER 22, 1977 3 Parry From Fred » Concerning those crackpots (the painfully sad group) who, being otherwise brilliant people, can not wait for the end of the world: First of all, the pain in that group is usually their own. They truly are “painfully sad.” Sad to the extent that it hurts and the hurt produces a longing for the end to the pain. Hence the vision of heaven. The fact that these folks are brilliant is not at all inconsistent. For brilliant people can see through a lot of the claptrap which occupies so much of our consciousness. They see through the facades. They see through the busy work. They see beyond the rhetoric. Brilliant people don’t cover up the pain, or run from it, or pass it off, or drink it out of their minds. Brilliant people face it. And it hurts. Some of them refuse to accept the pain as a given - a normal -part of life. They fight it with all they’ve got. They screw up the courage and attack all those things which would hide it and keep it from being addressed and eliminated. For their efforts they all too often get labeled “crackpots.” Others can’t find that courage. So, facing the pain, hurting inside, and unable or unwilling to avoid it, they long for heaven - some hope of a fair shake which isn’t evident in their present lives. (By the way, most of those who do have the courage to find it because they are sure of some rewards greater than those handed out to the less brilliant non-crackpots who play games with human pain but do nothing to eliminate it.) At any rate, although “heaven is my home theology (my term) never was attractive to me, it is most certainly understandable and deserves a better label than “claptrap.” As to how to deal with those “crackpots” — easy!! Take a-way their pain. Work your fool head (and other parts) off at this place getting some skills and knowledge that will make you a useful and effective part of the effort to eliminate human pain. Once we are rid of that we are rid of our crackpots and claptrap.

Yes.” Mike De Pumpo, Corning, Sophomore “In the Library. Generally, sometimes a little loud, depends on where you sit.” Dave Kuran, Corning, Freshman “Library or Large Lounge.

Well, from what I can gather, not irtuch. I see many familiar faces and a lot of freshmen with potential. Potential for what? The student leadership of this campus depends on you, the new student, to get involved and eventually take the reigns. Now to the “behind the lines” news ... Your money, through activities fees, puts on the kegs, establishes a legitimate racket in the middle of the afternoon, and more kegs of beer. What is all of this? Shouldn’t there be more - more for you. I question why all our money must go for alcohol and foolishness!!! It is an activity but so are education and club functions. The education part really costs us money - straight from the pocket. The activity money is for our own use. and the way to get at your money is through club trips ( a real growing experience) and organized club functions. The people that help with this is the Inter Club Council (ICC). They help plan, organize, and finance these clubs. Is this not a more constructive way to use the money that you have already paid? Well, that brings me to the real problem at hand! Since I landed here about two weeks ago, I’ve heard that the budgets were cut. After much questioning and hours of studying the aftermath (or wake), I’ve gone to bat for YOU! I’ve rattled the Administration, shook up Student Government, pressured Activities Programming, and stomped on ICC. I can see why and how the budgets have been cut and formed, but I’m not going to accept a student rip off!! We are in this together and I’m going to the line. I need your help. So far I’ve met with the presidents of all major organizations and a working atmosphere exists. What we need is a few line changes to move some of your money from the other organizations back into the Inter Club Council so our clubs can have the support needed. Today, one week ago, the heads of Student Government, ICC, and Activities Programming met at 0700 in the Spencer Pub. The result of this and several other meetings is being presented to the Senate body today. I ask each and every one to stand hehind your senators, and if you don’t know who they are - then there are several alternatives: Speak your mind by: Suggestion Box; Crier (Trailer #4 behind the Com- mons): Senate Meeting (Thursday 1:00 - U210); Trustees Mail Box (1-E); Petitions: Demonstrations.

Appointments are not necessary but may be made by calling the Student Services Office on campus. Walk-ins are invited. The demise of James Bond movies is a cruel hardship that audiences and hard-core fans of 007 will have to prepare themselves for, if they see this misadventure. When Roger Moore inherited the secret agent role from a weary Sean Connery in 1974 “Live and Let Die,” I, at first was unwilling to accept the replacement since it seemed to be a catastrophic eror, but the beguiling film didn’t fold under pressure and turned in an eye-popping profit. Then came 1975’s “The Man with the Golden Gun,” with Roger Moore upstaging a hapless midget villian no less by stuffing him into a trunk. So much for those past dramatic 007 films which left us exhilarated. “The Spy Who Loved Me” leaves an imprint that the James Bond series has depreciated beyond repair. Bond (Roger Moore) is summoned, along with a Russian Agent, (Bombshell Barbara Bach), to share a mission designed at stopping Stromberg. (Curt Jurgens), who nabs nuclear submarines of any nationality. Stromberg’s henchman, some indestructible, gargantuan named “Jaws,” (Grunted by Richard Kiel), who bites open people, shards, and blocks of wood, menaces our hero throughout the movie. Clearly these ho-hum shenanigans aren’t clever, funny or purposeful. Screenplay writers Christopher Wood and Richard Maibaum butcher- ed the original Ian Fleming novel because they felt his story was trite and disconnected. Obviously, they should have let well enough alone. (Jaws?) Marvin Hamlisch’s music, which takes off wonderfully thanks to the opening song by Carly Simon, is this film’s saving grace, and it deserved a better fate. Barbara Bach and Curt Jurgens give perky performances, compared Roger Moore’s GI Joe doll impersonation. This is the tenth 007 movie, dating back to James Bond's debut in 1961’s “Doctor No.” “The Spy Who Loved Me” is an exercise in coarseness.

News From The Transfer Office Well, here we are with three full weeks of the academic year under our belts. For some it is the first three weeks of a college career and for others it’s three more weeks along the road they’ve been traveling for some time. The drop-add slips have mostly been processed and the welcoming activities on campus are beginning to give way to “business as usual,” and planning for the next step on the road to what we hope will be intellectual acumen and gainful employment. All in all it is an appropriate transition point for me to introduce myself and my services to those of you who I have yet to meet. Let me begin by lending my voice to the chorus of welcomes that have already come your way, and that being done, let’s get on to what services I can afford you here at the college. My job here is heading up the Office of College Transfer and Job Placement which has recently acquired the caption Office of Exit Services. To an extent it is the antithesis of admissions. Functionally this office offers counsle-ing, information, and assistance to a student as he or she plans for exit from Coming Community College. Most students leaving the college follow one of two paths: transfer on to another educational institution or entry into “the world of work.” And, for many the future may hold both. It is preparation to pursue one, or both, of these two paths that the Transfer/Placement Office is concerned with. In the area of college transfer we can assist students in a variety of ways as they form their plans. With the maze of different types of institutions who welcome CCC students as transfers, many of you probably have questions regarding the nature of various colleges, types of programs, how to make applications, etc. While it is often preferable to drop into my office for a one-to-one chat about your individual plans, one of the purposes of this column in future issues will be to keep all CCC students abreast of visits to our campus by representatives from other colleges, important deadline dates for applications, and other items of information that would be of value if transfer is being considered. For many students who may wish to transfer to another school this January, plans need to be developed as quickly as possible: and for others it may only be an early exploration of what possibilities exist. Whichever category you may find yourself in, I hope you will feel free to drop in and get your questions answered. College transfer is an area where it is really never too early or too late to begin your consideration: so whatever point you may be at in your program here at CCC - this service is available to you. The following colleges have already scheduled visits to our campus to talk with first or second year Corning students who might be interested in investigating transfer to their institutions. Notices will be posted around the campus a few days prior to each visit. In general the college representatives will be in the front lobby of the Commons from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. on the listed date: September 28 - SUNY College at Utica/Rome October 5 - Clarkson College of Technology October 7 - St. John Fisher College (Rochester) October 18 - Milwaukee School of Engineering October 26 - SUNY College at Geneseo October 31 - Rochester Institute of Technology November 2 - D’Youville College (Buffalo) November 10 - United States Marine Corps (10 a.m. to 2 p.m.) November 11 - SUNY College at Oswego November 17 - SUNY College at Fredonia November 28 - SUNY College at Brockport. Be sure to watch this column in future issues of the Crier for additions to the above list or date changes. The other half of my concern here in the Trans- fer/Placement Office is to be of service to those students that are looking toward entry into the job market, and here again we have a variety of services available to CCC students. For those students that are now only exploring career options this office can be a beacon to relevant literature and information about the nature of the work, prospects for future employment opportunities, and required training for all types of occupations. Many of you are, of course, further along the road and have already focused on the occupation of your choice, charted your course, and have nearly completed your training. For you we can afford counseling and assistance in such areas as resume preparation, job searching, interviewing, etc. Throughout the year a number of different delivery systems will be explored and pursued to provide you with information on these topics in the most effective and expeditious manner possible to meet your needs. One such delivery system will be future articles in this column which will address specific elements of an effective plan to search out and secure the job of your choice. And last, but not least, there are those of you who are in need of a job now (or very shortly). For you the Transfer/Placement also can be of service. A file of current part-time and fulltime jobs openings that have been listed with this Office is available to you. You can come in and go through the file and obtain all the information needed to apply for as many of these jobs as you feel meet your needs. For your convenience many of these jobs are also passed on and listed in a classified section of the Crier. A classified job listing of this type is included in this issue. Further, you can fill out student employment cards in the Transfer/Placement Office that will enable us to contact you directly about any future job listings that match your interests and background. As the year goes on we will also be making arrangements for many companies and agencies to interview on our campus with students who will be graduating from our various programs. Dates for these interviews will be brought to your attention in a variety of ways as they become firm. The Transfer/Placement Office is located on the first floor of the Administrative Building and I invite you to investigate further any of the services we offer, and give us YOUR suggestions on how we might expand. these services in the future.

Photos By Da ve Swan 6 THE CRIER, THURSDA Y, SEPTEMBER 22, 1977 Security Beat This column is devoted to publishing the doings of Campus Security. Remember they are here for your protection. When a young, coed, allergic to bees was stung, Officer Dolan rushed her to the Corning Hospital, literally in the nick of time. According to doctors at the hospital, a few minutes later and the coed would have been dead. Officer Dolan was commended by James Chapman, Director of Security. Security helped a student get his pickup truck out of a ditch. Security is investigating three motor vehicle accidents, one occuring on campus and two just off campus. They are also investigating two hit and run accidents that occurred on campus, one involving a faculty member and the other involving a student. In an effort to broaden their services, security has taken to jumping batteries. They hope to continue this service. On four separate occasions security have helped out students who have locked their keys in their cars. Security found a very sick girl by the Crime Lab on Marland Road. She was observed falling down. They took her to the Corning Hospital and notified authorities. Officer Dolan foiled two attempted burglaries. One involved breaking into a car and another incident an attempted break-in at the Nursing Building. Both incidents involved high school students. Security put a Honda Civic back in its parking spot after it slipped out of gear and started rolling across the parking lot. Students were apprehended drinking in their car at the APC Social and were asked by security to leave the campus. At the APC Social a student gave an underage person his ID card. When caught, the underaged person was asked to leave the campus. The student will be dealt with by the Dean of Students. Reminder - Vehicles must be registered. Stickers may be obtained at the Business Office in the Administration Building. If cars are not registered violators will be ticketed and a hold placed on their grades until they pay the fines. 10% Discount To Student For Purchases Over $5 -Just Present I.D. Card t>] E.

In our Sept. 8 issue, we inadvertantly omitted John Savino’s byline from the article entitled “Music Feature - John Hall.” 2. In the Sept. 15 Crier, a letter appearing in “Your Side,” entitled ‘We Need NASA!’, was written by former staff member Jim French, CCC Class of 77. 3. JTO’s visual artistry which graces our “Movies” column, featuring Chris Nichols and Cole, bears absolutely no resemblance to either Messrs. Nichols or Cole, although some people wish that they really DID look that way. Ever since I was old enough to talk, I can distinctly remember two types of criticism: Constructive and Destructive. Constructive is the helpful form of criticism. It is used to help others learn from their mistakes in order that they will not make them again. Destructive is the venomous form of criticism. When used to its full advantage it not only destroys the ego, but brings on consistent anger as well as hurt. I’ve had numerous experiences with the latter. For example, once when I was ten years old, I was playing Frisbee with one of my friends on our street. A tall rather astute individual walked by us and said with a sneer: “My God! If I played like you girls do I wouldn’t know which end was up.” At that remark I became very perturbed and said for both of us, “You probably wouldn’t know anyway, jerk.” Believe it or not, the guy stared at me and said nothing. And all that time I was thinking, “Good for you, Pam. You really put HIM in his place.” Yet, on the other hand, I felt ashamed as well as guilty. I realized that I had not been all that considerate myself. So I hastily apologized to him and him to me. He smiled and went on his way. And we went back to playing Frisbee, OUR way. So beware of Destructive Criticism. It can shatter even the strongest egos.

SEPTEMBER 22, 1977 Motocross: My Favorite Sport By TED NICKERSON Why does man climb a mountain? Because it is there. Why does man fly? He wants to be free as a bird. Why do men strive for records? They want to achieve feats never before attained by any man. Why do men race motocross? Well, there are several reasons, but just ask any of the numerous motocross advocates on campus and most will say it is the thrill of competition'. Now many students may wonder why I’m writing about motorcycle races on the sports page of a college newspaper, namely the Crier. Well, there just aren’t any sports to cover in the fall, which also means there is nothing for students to go watch. Maybe after finding out what motocross is, some people will like to go some Sunday to experience what it’s all about. The season runs from the first week in April until the end of October, so there are plenty of races available to see. If anyone would like to watch, just ask me and I’ll tell you where they are every week. Contrary to popular opinion, racing isn’t just showing up on Sunday and racing. Hours of practice are put in every week to keep the rider’s skills sharp and also to keep him in shape. There is also several hours of maintennace required on the bike each week to keep it in top running condition. Many tedious chores must be performed on the bike, but overlooking one of these chores would lead to a breakdown on Sunday. All nuts and bolts must be continuously checked for tightness, spokes must be checked, tire pressure must be checked, etc. While these duties do become bor- ing, each one is vital to the performance of the motorcycle. Race weekends usually start in two ways for these motorcycle thrill-seekers. Some racers will arrive Saturday evening to check the track out so that they may set up their bikes accordingly. These riders will normally sleep overnight at the track and rise early to prepare their bikes for the day’s races. The majority of the racers however, will normally get a good night’s sleep at home so they they may rise early to leave for the track. A typical race day starts around & a.m. with walking the track to find lines, or the best places to ride. Then the bike is given a final check before it is taken to inspection. All nuts, bolts, and spokes must be tight, the brakes must work, the kickstand must be removed, and the kill Baseball Meeting Planned A meeting for all Corning Community College Students interested in the intercollegiate basketball program for the Spring 1978 season will be held on Thursday, October 6, at 1 p.m. in the Small Lounge of the Commons Building. At this meeting, fund-raising ideas will be discussed and decided upon, to help finance the tentatively scheduled spring trip to Florida. Also, discussed at this meeting will be winter and spring workout schedules. Any student who is interested in the baseball program but cannot make this meeting on October 6, should stop in and see head Coach Dave Clark before that date in his office, U-203 in the Commons Building. Strictly Baseball First of all, I would like to welcome all the freshmen who are spending their first semester at CCC and secondly, welcome back all of the returning students. Contrary to what you may have heard over the summer months, THERE IS baseball at CCC. It’s true, at one point, baseball had been deleted from the athletic budget but it came back to life and at this point, is alive and well. The enthusiasm being shown for the sport, is very encouraging. New, prospective candidates are-coming into my office and signing up every day. It is this kind of enthusiasm that a coach loves to work with and which could bring CCC its first winning base- ball team in the school’s history. Because of the late decision in deciding tb bring baseball back I decided to eliminate the fall baseball program for this year. However, I am working on bringing CCC baseball a first. That being to take a southern spring trip this coming March. Right now I am looking at the state of Florida but this could change. I will call a meeting of all prospective baseball candidates during the early part of October. The exact date of this meeting has not yet been set but watch future issues of the Crier, and other local news media, for the exact date. At this meeting we will discuss various fund raising ideas to help finance the By DAVE CLARK trip south. It will then be up to each individual to pull his share of the load in bringing in funds to make this trip a reality. The regular spring schedule is in the process of being drawn up now and it will include between 20 and 25 games. Once again, we will be a member of the Penn-York Conference, which includes, besides CCC; Erie Community College, Alfred State College, Hilbert Junior College and Niagara Community College. So I will look forward to seeing any CCC students interested in playing baseball this season at our first organizational meeting in the early part of October. button must stop the engine before the bike will pass. If everything is alright, the bike will pass and the rider will be handed his sign-up slip. After showing all the proper cards, paying the sign-up fee and filling out all forms, the rider is officially signed-up. Now ibis time to suit up. This takes a while since most riders usually wear over $300 worth of equipment. Suiting up is much like any contact sport without the locker rooms. A typical outfit includes specially designed, padded boots, special socks, padded leather pants, shoulder pads, a nylon long-sleeve jersey, a kidney belt, gloves, an approved helmet with a duckbill, goggles and some form of face protection. Also, many big bore riders will wear padded chest protectors. After donning their equipment, one may mistake them for gladiators ready to do battle. Soon, practice begins and the excitement starts. A swift kick on the kick-starter brings the bikes to life, and the riders head to the chute. When the chute is full it is closed off and the first wave of riders roll onto the track. Practice is a special time for the riders as most will look for lines, practice their style, or feel out the track. After a lap or two the individual styles begin to shine as the riders begin to learn the track. This is a good time for spectators as many experienced riders will begin to hot dog a little, knowing that the actual race should be purely racing with no time for fooling around. It is an excellent time for photographers as the riders will pull beautiful wheelies or sail high off a jump into a cross-up position. After an hour or two practice will be ended and the riders will attend a rider’s meeting. After hearing all rules and regulations the riders prepare for the races which will begin in about 15 minutes. Each class of the day will line up behind the gate or a rubber band which will be used to start their moto. The start is the most important part of a race as a bad start will leave, one far behind the leader. When the gate drops or rubber band lets go, around 40 bikes will head into the tight first corner. The first turn is possibly the most dangerous part of a race as 40 bikes will try to fit through a tight corner first. Many spills are taken here and the race is half won or lost right here. After the start, the race is just a battle for about 20 minutes over a variety of terrain. Hills, jumps, bumps, and hard-to-make corners are all part of a motocross race. One exciting aspect of a race is to watch a skilled rider come into a corner at full speed, only to smash a berm and bound off much like a cue ball bounding off a cushion in pool. However, one mistake in using the berm could lead to a disasterous spill. Another exciting part for prospective spectators are the jumps. Many different techniques can be observed here as man and machine launches high into the air. Also, if one likes crashes, many are taken off jumps. After the first moto a rider will have about three hours to prepare his bike for the second race. Most riders give their bikes a quick check, relax a while, and spectate the female spectators. Time flies by and soon the second moto starts the action all over a-gain. The culmination of the day comes with the payoffs; trophies to amateurs and money to experts. After the presentations, the riders are free to go home and wait the long week before the next race.
