National Unemployment—17% WASHINGTON (LNS) - Unemployment was almost three times higher last year than official government figures showed, according to the Senate Subcommittee on Employment, Manpower and Poverty. Subcommittee economists found that 15,000,000 workers, (more than one out of every six in the national workforce) cannot make a living by working. The researchers compared government unemployment figures to a 68-volume special survey made by the Census Bureau in 1970 in the slum areas of New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Detroit, Washington, and 45 other cities. They found that the government figures fail to include three groups of workers in need of jobs: 1. Workers who have got so discouraged at not finding work that they have dropped out of the labor market. 2. Part-time workers who want and need to work full time. 3. Workers with full-time jobs whose earnings put them below the government’s poverty level of $4,000 for a family of four. The first two catagories alone, according to a United Electrical Workers study, bring the national jobless rate to at least 10%. The third catagory would make it even higher than the 17% estimated by the subcommittee, since the U. S. government Bureau of Labor Statistics says that a family of four needs more than $7,000, not $4,000, per year to maintain a “lower level” standard of living. The Administration particularly hushes up the massive unemployment among black peo- ple, who make up a large part of the population in the areas covered by the Census figures. This cover-up in the employment figures is not new with this administration either. A similar study by President Johnson's Secretary of Labor Willard Wirtz in 1966 found very similar conditions. The government’s false unemployment figures don’t just help cover up a big problem. They also cut down the amount of money it has to pay out in unemployment benefits, even to workers it officially admits are unemployed. In each state, these figures determine how many weeks of benefits an eligible worker can get. States with official unemployment rates below 6.5% cannot get federal money for 13-week extensions. In July, unemployed people in New York, California and other states lost these thirteen weeks of payments because the misleading figures indicated that, they were not plagued with high unemployment. Nixon Hits Up Corporation Management WASHINGTON (LNS) - Nixon’s head fundraiser, Maurice Stans, apparently unfazed by charges of direct involvement in the bugging of the Democratic National Headquarters and illegally concealing the source of GOP campaign Student The Student Government meeting of October 19th saw the appointment of several members to various Faculty Committees. Appointed to the Curriculum Committee were Al Moyer and Rudy Bomarc. Bob Taggi and Margaret Walls were placed on the Academic Standards committee.

The following students will join the Faculty Student Association; Vince Ware, Joannie Burke, Kathy Kelley, Cindy Ackerman, Bob Taggi, Jude Stoddard, Doug Gardener, selves are prohibited by law from contributing to political campaigns. “For those of us who have made our career in business, ” wrote Stans in a typical soli-citation-this time to management at the department store Steve Demonstoy, Rick Pautz, and Pam Steams. Bob Taggi will also Join the Parking Board. Other developments during the meeting included the appointment of Denny Calderone to the Student Government Senate, and the naming of Jude Stoddard to be the Student Government Representative to I.C.C. chain Montgomery Ward-”... it is to your self-interest to ensure an administration in the federal government that is philosphically dedicated to maintaining and building the system in which you have invested.” Stans’ message must have hit home in the executive suite of Montgomery Ward because a corporate vice president, Richard Abbott, wrote an accompanying letter marked “Personal and Confidental” to " all key management persons in our entire company.” “ The business corporation, by law, cannot make poli- tical contributions,” wrote Abbott. " However nothing prevents our making individual contributions through the good offices of our company... for those of us who do wish to-contribute, there can be great benefit in giving Mr. Donnell ( Edward Donnell, president of Montgomery Ward) the opportunity to personally present all of our checks together to Mr. Stans.” Anderson reported that a similar appeal for funds had also been distributed by the Democrats-but significantly without the corporate seal of approval. Govt. Appointments Republicans f or McG. Organize Republicans across New York State have formed more than a dozen committees to work for the election of Democrat George McGovern as President. Republicans for McGovern committees have been formed in Rochester, Buffalo, Otsego County, Newark, Madison County, Long Island and Westchester County, and additional groups are being formed. In working for McGovern, the Republicans aim to "reassert the old Republican principles of freedom of opportunity, the right to dissent, privacy, and honesty in government, "ac- cording to an open letter to President Nixon sponsored by the state Republicans for McGovern organization. Concerned Republicans, facing the candidacy of Richard Nixon, have been "placed in the untenable position of being asked to support those who offer the favors of their offices only to the powerful elite,” said Gilbert Colgate Jr., a New York City Human Rights Commissioner who is state coordinator of Republicans for McGovern. "Nixon is just too cozy with giant corporations who can buy influence at the White House,” said Carney Rhinevault, co-chairman of Otsego County Republicans for McGovern and chairman of the Environmental Association of Delaware and Otsego Counties. “Clearly, when President Nixon is faced with a choice between preserving the environment and doing favors for greedy corporations, he forgets about the environment," Rhinevault said. Rhinevault’s co-chairman is Keith Gourlay, an Oneonta attorney. “Nixon hasn’t levelled with us,” he said. “He promised us peace but he’s given us more war. He promised to reduce unemployment but unemployment has nearly doubled. He promised us property tax relief but only George McGovern has come up with a workable plan for it. He said he would put people on payrolls instead of welfare rolls, but here in New York welfare rolls have doubled and 545,000 New Yorkers are out of work.” In Rochester, Monroe County Republicans for McGovern have been organized by Lynette Schuler of Greece and William Weegar, a former Perinton town attorney and Republican committee-man. About 40 county Republicans have volunteered to work with them and tell other Republicans why they feel President Nixon should not be re-elected. Republicans for McGovern have been organized in Newark by Thomas Gilmore, an attorney and former public defender, and in Buffalo by Charles Jamieson, an unemployed physicist who formerly worked for a Niagara Falls aerospace firm. Jamieson blames Nixon for the fact that unemployment “is common among physicists these days."

ARTICLE I Name: The name of this club shall be the Apathy Club of CCC. ARTICLE II Purpose: The purpose of this organization is to provide a dub for those students who couldn’t care less about joining a dub. ARTICLE III Meetings: Meetings will not be held the fifth Tuesday of every month. They will not be held in the gym at 1:00. ARTICLE IV Membership: This dub will be made up of those students who have shown themselves to be outstanding in the field of apathy. Qualifications are as follows: (at the first meeting which will not be held, those students wishing to become members will apply by presenting their qualifications.) 1) cannot be registered to vote 2) must establish that he or she is not aware of who the candidates for President are 3) must show that he or she has failed to attend any convocations, dub activities, or any other school or civic function in the past six months 4) must prove that he or she has read nothing more significant than Mad magazine or the CRIER in the past two years. 5) must miss the aforementioned meeting which will not be held. ARTICLE V Attendance: Any member who shall attend one or more meetings in a row will be promptly judged unfit for membership. ARTICLE VI Activities: Current plans for the coming weeks indude: 1) On November 10th there will not be a keg sponsored by the Apathy Club. No band will be featured and nobody cares who attends. 2) On November 7th the Apathy Club will picket the polling places in Coming in an attempt to keep the vote down. Of course, all members who have enough interest to partiri-pate will be demonstrating that they are unfit for further membership. ARTICLE VII Other Features: The dub will choose an “apathetic student of the week” each week to honor the students who have shown disinterest above and beyond the call of duty. Our first choice is Stephan Stanley Stegmaier, a dropout from Chester, West Virginia. When notified of the honor, Stephan said, “Big deal." His picture was not available at press time because he failed to show up to have it taken, as did the photographer, a charter member of the dub. Stephan's outstanding achiev-ments indude a failure to report to school this fall and the amazing feat of forgetting his wedding day. He is currently a hermit on a mountain in Southern North Dakota or Northern South Dakota. He receives a subscription to the New York Times which he faithfully fails to read every day. For his efforts Stephan will receive a can of warm Iron City beer, a certificate, and a television set which shows nothing but Howdy Doody. Congratulations Steve and keep up the good work. ARTICLE VIII Motto: The motto of this dub shall be “apathy now, apathy forever.” For those truly loyal members who will not take the time to memorize that we have the ever popular alternative, “who cares?” Open Letter An To the Students: In a very few days the American people will select either Richard Nixon or myself to be President for the next four years. Yet many people have grown so suspicious of government and so cynical toward politicians that they believe the choice doesn’t make any difference. They are wrong. It makes a difference to the people of Southeast Asia. For them it is the difference between four more years of ruthless bombing, burning villages and terrified children and an immediate end to these scenes of horror. It makes a difference to our prisoners of war - the difference between four more years of agonizing captivity and the freedom that will only come when this war is finally over. Unfortunately, it no longer makes any difference to the 20,000 American soldiers who have returned from this madness not in glory, but in death, since Richard Nixon took of- fice on a pledge of peace. For them his secret plan for peace will remain a secret always. I will end this war immediately. Richard Nixon has not and will not. It makes a difference to the millions who languish in poverty in the richest nation of the world. It makes a difference to their children who may be condemned to another generation of empty stomachs, wretched health and broken dreams. It is the difference between compassion and neglect. I will commit whatever it takes to give every American the chance for a full life. Richard Nixon has not and will not. And it makes a difference to all of us who look to the Supreme Court for justice. Richard Nixon’s appointments to the Court have demonstrated his contempt for our nation’s Constitution. Two of his nominees were so poorly qualified that the Senate re- fused to confirm them. Yet Justices Rehnquist, Powell, Blackmun and Burger will be with us for the rest of my life and for a major part of yours. I will nominate Supreme Court justices worthy of the position. Richard Nixon has not and will not. During the debate over the California delegation at the Democratic Convention, Assemblyman Willie Brown of California electrified the delegates with his plea: “Give us back our delegation.” As this campaign comes to a close, I say to the wiretappers and the warmongers and the powerful private interests that have seized control of our government: "Give us back our country.” I am asking for your help in these final days. Without it I cannot win. With it I definitely can. I stake my hopes on November 7 in large part on your energy, your wisdom and your conscience. George McGovern Coaches To the Editor: I would like to personally thank the team, coaches, referees, and players for their great participation and support in this year’s Flag Football Intramural program. Special thanks to Coach Bulkly who provided assistance when needed and especially to Coach Craumer who helped us all to make this years program the great success that it was. Much credit is due to Veterans of the Vietnam War and earlier conflicts today accused Richard Nixon of “abandoning” returned veterans who urgently require the help of the federal government to successfully reenter society. John Rowan, a former sar-geant in the United States Air Force (6990th Security Squadron, 1965-1967, Vietnam) charged that: The unemployment rate for Vietnam veterans in New York City is 16.5% (Bureau of Labor Statistics, 7/72). Only 3,000 of these men are receiving unemployment compensation while more than 13,000 are on welfare. Nixon slashed aid for unemployed veterans by 76% in 1971. Due to concerted pressure the V. A. in New York is now treating only 1300 addicted veterans. This is a shocking evasion of responsibility as there are upwards of 30,000 addicted veterans in the city. Mr. Rowan, New York State Coordinator of Veterans for McGovern/Shriver, emphasized Praised the Crier for their outstanding coverage and photography on this season's games. Congratulations are also extended to Steve Avery's Heads for their fantastic performance in the playoffs and in winning the 1972 Flag Football Championship. Ralph Palmer Student Supv. Intramural Flag Football Nixon that the most tragic failure of the Nixon veterans policy concerns medical care. Mr. Rowan noted that the V. A. medical program is operating at its lowest personnel level in four years, despite the fact that it has its highest medical caseload in history. In 1970 alone the V. A. refused to treat 40% of the one million veterans who sought medical care. In the present fiscal year the V.A. has proposed to lower still further the number of available beds. This cutback in services is also seriously threatening World War II veterans, many of whom are in the 45-65 age bracket and increasingly in need of medical assistance. Mr. Rowan also pointed out that since World War II the cost of attending college or trade school has risen by approximately 500%, but yearly allowances for veterans education benefits have increased by only 40% - “an incredible gap in benefits which prevents veterans from receiving an education.” "Whenever Senator McGov- ’In response to Senator McGovern’s charge that the President does not care enough about Israel, White House gardener Saul Sternberg said today . .." Veterans ern and other Democratic leaders propose to establish benefits for Vietnam vets on parity with World War II era benefits, Mr. Nixon calls this ’highly inflationary' - but he does not similarly question wildly escalating costs for weapons and warmaking,” Mr. Rowan stated. "For example, in 1969 the Senate proposed a 46% increase in veterans education benefits. Mr. Nixon fought to hold this to 13%. Judging from the evidence, it seems that Mr. Nixon’s only concern for veterans is to increase their number.” Mr. Rowan was joined at the news conference outside the Veterans Assistance Center, 529 - 8th Avenue, by Dave Donaldson, an ex-addict veteran now working with Project RETURN, Mike Gold, a veteran-student who works in the Brooklyn College Veteran Counseling Office, Steve Deluca, an outpatient at the 1st Avenue V. A. Hospital, Harry Behret, a veteran doing research on veterans’ unemployment and welfare problems for Queens Borough President Donald Manes, and Jerome Cohen, former National Commander of the Jewish War Veterans.

Calif. 90034 Page 3-THE CRIER-Nov. 3, 1972 THE CRIER-Nov. 3, 1972-Page 4 View From the Hill by IVAR PAUR Two issues ago I wrote on the Urban Renewal plans for this area and how industry and commercial interests were to dominate the project. I presented an argument for the need of community facilities. A map accompanied this article and depicted the project building by building, more industry, more stores and innevitably more bars. I interviewed residents of the area and found that there was a desire for a community center. I interviewed the Asst. Director of U.R. here in Coming and found that a community center was possible but only if somebody made some noise. In short, I put the whole thing together and presented it to you the reader in hopes of stimulating a little response. Well that is exactly what I got, a little response. Out of the more than 900 students who are residents of Coming, four (4) students signed and returned the petitions presented with the article. These petitions asked the Common Council for a public hearing dealing with the construction of a community center along with the other construction proposed in the U. R. plans, I can’t help but wonder what happened to all those students who keep throwing aroung those cute little phrases like ‘power to the people.' They really missed their opportunity. The opportunity to stop talking and start acting, but maybe that's all it is, talk. At first I interpreted the results as a lack of intelligence, but then I realized that not one faculty member bothered to respond, (if that really means anything). Then I fell back on the old apathy rhetoric, but that too proved to be wrong. It was just too incredible to imagine college students so unconcerned about their immediate community. This left me with the painful conclusion that I failed to present a convincing enough argument. I want to try another angle, another reason why this over-industrialized city needs a community center. At Founders Pavilion (the long term care section of Coming Hospital) in room 329 resides Mr. Jerry O’Bryan. Jerry is 29 years old and at age 23 he was paralized from the neck down in an accident. Jerry is very active despite his physical handicap. Of late he has been involved in organizing a club for the handicapped, something already established in other communities like Elmira and Bath. Meetings and other activities have already been scheduled, but due to the lack of facilities, these meetings will take place in various makeshift locations. This situation is not unique. Community fa- cilities in this area have always been restricted to make-shift and temporary locations. This is due to an improper balance in Urban Planning, a slow but sure process which will eventually drain this community of all intellectual persuits. The apathy that already exists is a result of this industrial de-sease. With the expansion of industrial concerns comes a shift in political priorities. The local administration becomes more responsive to industry and the people become a second concern. The construction of the Coming Inn on Denison Pkwy. is the first of a series of commercial concerns to be erected. The Leader has stated that the site will indude such ‘public’ facilities as a banquet area, a swimming pool, and retail shops. The Market St. area is in for a massive face lift, stores will be rebuilt and new ones erected. The River St. area will receive a new shopping center. Painted Post will build a new shopping center. I think that dearly shows my point. Coming is being cheated of its first real opportunity to turn the tide and try to even the scales. As it stands now the aftermath of all this massive reconstruction will leave Corning with the same miserable excuse of a movie theater, the glass works center (a passifica-tion attempt by Corning Glass), lots of bars, and an industry orientated administration. Many of you figure that your residency in the community is only temporary, and others are satisfied with the great variety of bars, and therefore the lack of concern. But what about Jerry and all the other Jerrys of the community? What about all those kids that are stuck here and have to survive in this kind of an atmosphere? Still don’t care? Well how about those good times you can have at demonstrations and rallies? What ever your motives are I’m asking you to lend a hand. There will be no petition to accompany this article. I’m going to make it super easy for you to help. I’m going to post petitions around the school and all you have to do is sign your name. The next Common Council meeting is about a week away and maybe you would like to attend, it should be quite noisy. I am also going to ask for volunteers, people with ideas, people with imagination and the desire to become involved. If any of you have a little time to spare please drop by the Crier office and let us know, we need the help. If you haven't got the time the least you can do is sign. Power to the people?

Get your moneys worth at Tallman's Dept. Store PAINTED POST N.Y. - Habitat It seems that America’s Airlines are out to give us the shaft again. This time its in the “misleading ads” department. The “Airlines of America” have been running an ad headlined "No Smoking..", in which they give themselves 10 points because they are eliminating smoke producing engines. What they don’t say is that behind the non-smoke screen lurkes a lot of gremlins Wet Goods like Nitrous Oxide, unburned hydrocarbons and Carbon Monoxide, all very toxic. So, it turns out that the smokeless engine is just another pretty curtain to hide what really goes on. What really goes on is that the new engine actually does more damage to life by dumping invisible pollutants into the air than it does by smoking us to death. How long do large corporations and the federal government think they can keep pulling shitty deals like this one on us? A question. Why are the airlines willing to spend cash on eliminating smoke from engines, while leaving toxic gasses? Airlines reply that the technology doesn’t exist to do this. But NASA is developing an engine with greatly reduced emissions. I feel that the airlines don’t really care about what their chemicals are doing to us. All they want is to get us to “fly the friendly skys." It’s more like flying the deadly skys! Also, the government is backing the airlines! They refuse to admit that a real danger exists; does this mean that the F.A.A. is calling experienced environmentalists and scientists liars? There are a lot of heavy questions here. What we need is a lot of heavy answers. It’s a good idea for us to get them -before we suffocate. Cantata Group To Sing Sunday Elmira College The Cantata Singers of Elmira will perform the rarely-heard “Dance of Death” by Hugo Distler in a concert at the First Presbytarian Church, West Clinton Street and Rambler Road, Elmira, Sunday, November 5th at 8 pm. The Program will also include a Brahms motet and the Missa Brevis of Mozart. Members of the Elmira Little Theater will perform with the Cantata singers in the Distler work, which calls for a series of spoken passages alternating with musical portions. Distler based his concepts for the “Dance of Death" partly on medieval stained glass windows in the church of St. Mary in Luebeck, Germany, where he was organist, and partly on a medieval morality play. The piece has been described as a kind of choral drama. In it the central figure of Death calls on individuals from every-day life— a doctor, a child, a business manager, an old man, and others, and invites each to “dance with him.” The dialogues between Death and those he has called, with their musical counterpoints, form the dramatic tension of the work. The Cantata Singers are an ecumenical group of Southern Tier vocal artists devoted to the performance of Major Works of sacred choral music. The 60-member singing group is headed by Robert D. Herrema, Elmira. The staging and lighting for the Distler work are under the direction of Mrs. Nathan Epstein, Elmira, of the Elmira Little Theater. Rev. E. M. Esler, minister of the First Presbyterian Church, will perform one of the speaking parts. Admission to the concert is free. Music Festival Former Army Capt. Charges: Army Suppresses Heroin Report WICHITA, Kansas (LNS) - A former Army captain recently charged that the U. S. military has been suppressing a 1971 report he worked on which he revealed that possible up to 44% of all lower ranking enlisted men were heroin users. John Eric Engstrom, said the report had been prepared in April of 1971 from a survey of two Army divisions as well as a two-day drug rehabilitation workshop, The survey involved 25 companies of the 25th Infantry Division and 3,103 members of the 23rd Infantry Division and showed that “a range of heroin use between 10%-44%." The two day conference, involving doctors, psychiatrists and others from the Army, Navy and Air Force “established the gutfeeling,” according to Engstrom, “that heroin addiction among lower ranking enlisted men was about 25%.” Engstrom said the report, ♦BUDWEISER ♦GENESEE Frank D’Andreo Inc. 89 W.

The first being the Coral Concert which was Wednesday, the twenty five at 8:30 p.m. And excellent presentation was given by the world famous Mira Chords who have just came back from and extensive tour in Europe. These presentation included four numbers with selections from such artists as Bach, Poulenc, and also Rand Letonpsson. Also giving a superb soprano solo was the excellent Miss Hel en Pletsch.

Pollution-free dreams of the 60’s have been transformed into the Nixon battle plan for the 70’s” - 1972 Republican Campaign Fact book NEW YORK (LNS) - A television campaign advertisement shows Richard Nixon signing environmental bills amid scenes of smoke-belching factories and dirty waterways. The president speaks: “With your support and with the help of Congress, we can reclaim and preserve the natural beauty of America.” While that is their campaign line, Republican dreams of pushing Nixon as an avid environmentalist may have vanished into polluted air recently when the president vetoed the $24.6 billion Federal Water Pollution JOIN THE CRIER BRUNSWICK Corning Bowl 373 Woodview Ave. Coming, N.Y. Control Act — the most far-reaching environmental bill passed during his administration. Within two hours after Nixon refused to sign the bill into law, the Senate voted 52 to 12 to override the veto, and the House followed later, 247 to 23. Both votes easily surpassed the two-thirds majority needed to override a presidential veto. In 1970 Nixon made nationwide headlines by calling for “funds to help states build the necessary capability” to deal with environmental problems. Since then, however, Nixon’s actions have had little connection with his words. While the administration has sent some 25 environmental bills to Congress, Nixon has not actively supported many of them.

A VOTE! As all you Brothers and Sisters realize, election time is drawing near. I have refrained from voicing any opinion regarding the candidates and the issues for the Presidency, let alone any of the other offices that they are running for. Due primarily to the strictly political line this newspaper follows, I felt that my black brothers and sisters should be allowed to view the facts and not be influenced in any shape, form, or fashion by what I believe. Yet the time has come to merely state a few facts about the candidates for the presidency with whom the ultimate fate of all my Black brothers and sisters lie. First of all, one must in all honesty trace the history and results of the Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson and of course, Nixon administrations and what they did to and for whom. Eisenhower, a Republican and an astute believer in the inferiority of the Black man did lit-tle, regardless of his military background to help the black man. If anything, one could only presuppose that he set the cause of equality, integration, civil rights, etc. back at least ten years. Had it not been for Eisenhower’s predecessor, Harry S. Truman, the armed forces would not be integrated, even today. Dwight D. Eisenhower’s administration accomplished little more than fill its already fat coffers with the taxpayers money. Then, what seemed like and was a godsend, his vice-president at the time, Richard M. Nixon, was defeated in his bid for the presidency by a relatively young, virtually unknown face on the political scene; a man by the name of John Fitzgerald Kennedy. A Democrat and a Catholic, Kennedy alienated many stout supporters of the democratic way of politics. As he was inherently rich in his own right, he could not be bought off. John F. Kennedy did much for the Black man, but as we all know, it wasn’t enough. An assassin’s bullet halted that. JFK’s vice-president, Lyndon Baines Johnson, thought of at the time as the most inept of choices to succeeding to the seat of the presidency, comparable to Harry S. Truman, was himself a seasoned politician and virtual senate majority whip before becoming JFK’s running mate in the 1960 election. Johnson, seemingly enough, performed for the Black man feats extraordinary for a southern democrat and some Blacks were almost convinced that finally civil rights were for real. One can only wonder at the totally unrealistic manner in which LBJ, at a time when he could have carved his niche in the annals of history, withdrew from the 1968 presidential race under the guise that "neither would he seek or accept the presidential nomination of the United States” due to ill health. Think about it. Just when the Black man places faith in a president, it’s ZAP, all over! Of course, in my opinion, I think Backs have placed entirely too much faith in what presidents, politicians, lawmakers and the like can do, and labor under the consensus that if and when a civil rights bill or law is passed that it will be obeyed by the "average law-abiding citizen.” Then, to put the frosting on the cake, Richard Milhouse Nixon again returns on the political scene. A man admittedly resigned to never run for public office again, but who vanquishes all opponents in the 1968 elections by an outrageous margin, and who is finally elected Carlin in Concert by KEVIN ROE On Thursday, October 26th, George Carlin let Coming know why he is known as one of America’s foremost entertainers. One spectator at the convocation remarked, “If all the comedians as good as George Carlin held a convention, they could have it in a phone booth.” True. He reminisced about his experiences as a class clown in a parochial school and somehow eventually found himself talking about the seven words one cannot say on television. If Bob Hope had done this routine it would have been obscene. Carlin made it hilarious. The general consensus of the audience seemed to be that Carlin is funny because he talks a-bout things that everyone can identify with. Everyone knows a class clown. Carlin said, “Comedy is not invention, it is discovery." He discovered that a description of the swallowing process can be funny. He discovered that knuckle-cracking can be funny. But the best thing about George Carlin is that when he goes on stage he is George Carlin. He doesn’t need Edgar Winter's flashy clothes to let everyone know he is a star. He doesn't need Alan King’s cigar to accentuate his punch lines. He doesn’t need joke writers because he doesn't tell jokes, per se. He is just naturally, refreshingly, and incredibly funny. Join the president. You waited a long time, Nixon, the others should realize that you’re going to get your money’s worth. President Nixon has done little more for the Black man in his first four years in office than to pass stricter laws to contain them. Vietnam is an everyday word and, granted, there have been many men killed there, Yet, of the total force of troops sent to Vietnam, approximately 45% of all combat units on the firing lines are Black. What are we, invincible? Hell, no! Yet Self-exploration group sessions are being held weekly by the counseling division of Corning Community College TIME: 1 - 2 every Monday.

The self-exploration group sessions are for students who want to explore issues in their due to a lack of educational opportunities, job openings and advancement, the Black man has had little opportunity to do more than join the Armed Forces. RMN’s record generally speaks for itself, he has done more than any other president in history to annihilate the Black race. He is well aware of the ratio of Blacks to white in the Armed Forces and especially in Vietnam. Compared percentage-wise to the population of the country, the amount of Black men’s deaths lives that seem to be hanging them up from being available to themselves, and to assist them in managing their own lives effectively. If you choose to participate, it is important that you attend regularly. Please contact Ron Hofsess individually prior to attending your first session. in Vietnam is ridiculous. We all realize that this is an election year as does Mr. Nixon. Consequently, he and Mr. McGovern, as I have yet refrained from mentioning, will say just about anything to get votes, Black, White, Red, or Blue; you name it. For Black people, one must say, WOW, because to vote for either of the candidates would just be a choice of two evils, or a means to an end. Vote anyway, my Black brothers and sisters. It’s YOUR choice. Some benefits of these sessions are: 1. insites into your own life issues 2. self-management 3. the use of students as resources to other students to help them sort out their own problems 4. development of on-going friendships Self-Exploration Column Left by JIM OLSON “NIXONOMICS . . Alcohol on A quick look at Nixonomics could give the voter a false impression. In his efforts to better the economy, Nixon has botched up just about everything. The fact of the matter is, that the U. S. economy at present is the worst that it has been in over 10 years. A look at some of his quotes and some of his accomplishments look like the script of a slap-stick comedy. But is our economy anything to laugh at? . .so one thing I will do at the Federal level is to stop the rise in prices." (Richard M. Nixon, 1968). The national cost of living has risen 18% in the last four years. "Reduction of the unemployment rate to 4% in 1972 is our goal” (Richard M. Nixon.) That is going to be some trick even for Tricky Dicky, since the unemploy- ment rate is 17% right now. "I will not take this country down the road of wages and price control, however politically expedient that may seem.” (Richard Nixon, 1971. ) 9 out of every 10 requests for price increases have been approved by Nixon’s Price Commission, including a reversal of the decision not to raise dairy product prices when national dairy co-ops came up with $72,500 for the Republican Campaign fund. However, the wages in this country have not changed much since the freeze went on. Nixon’s shopping list: the following is a chart for some everyday meal items, and their prices in 1969 and in 1972, taken from the New York State Department of Agriculture Marketing.

The newscaster said that Hanoi radio broadcasted that a cease fire agreement had been worked out between North Vietnam and the United States GERMAN CLUB MEETING THURSDAY - 1:00 COMMONS 209 ALL REGISTERED STUDENTS WELCOME WCBC FM which would be signed on Tuesday, Oct. 31st. I have one question. Why is it that the supporters of George McGovern are unhappy at this news? All I have heard from people in this group is that it will never happen or that it is a political move. I also have heard many people say this cease fire could have been arranged four years ago. To the first statement that I received I have one question. I thought that Mr. McGovern’s supporters were against the war and wanted an end to it as soon as possible. My question is, if what you are really concerned about is an end to the fighting, why be upset at the possibility of political undertones? I can only wonder if politics mean more to you than your ideal for an end to fighting. As to the possibility that this could have happened years ago, I doubt it. It appears to me that Hanoi’s plan is the one being accepted and this cease fire is separated from a political settlement. This reflects a change in Hanoi's stance, not the United States. So unless you can tell me how President Nixon influenced Hanoi, be happy that a cease fire could be a-round the corner. ROCK TRIVIA QUIZ Answers to last week’s Quiz 1. Malo 2. Chuck Berry 3.

At the same time, the 22-year-old youth leader from Lincoln, Nebraska, declared that “we are appalled at the record of Richard Nixon during his first 40 months in the White House.” Creighton, a 1972 graduate of Nebraska Wesleyan University, asserted that the 12 million new voters produced by the recent eighteen-year-old vote legislation “can and will determine who resides in the White House for the next four years.” He called on members of his association on more than 1,000 college and university campuses to back McGovern. The leader of the Student NEA, which is affiliated with the 1.2 million-member National Education Association, lauded McGovern for having "often stood alone in his battles to represent our viewpoints.” “George McGovern was the first man to speak out publicly in the United States Senate a- RESEARCH MATERIALS All Topics Send for your descriptive, up-to-date, 128-page, mail order catalog of 2,300 quality research papers.

He added that McGovern helped open the ceers for our entry into the great American political arena.” He said the South Dakotan is “the only candidate in the presidential election whose voting record on education, health, and welfare reflects his commitment to protecting our rights and our dignity.” Creighton blasted the Nixon Administration, declaring that the President has given indications that the rights and concerns of young people “are unimportant compared to the demands of the military, big business, and special interest groups.” He asserted the President "worked behind the legislative scenes" to block youth partici- by KEVIN ROE The "Two-Bit Players” production of Look Back in Anger promises to uphold the reputation of excellence that past drama productions have established. Many hours of rehearsal will come to an end next Thursday night as Bob Cardone, Mimi Novak, Joanne LaFace, Nick Mizzoni, and Walter Smith take the stage at 171 Cedar Street for opening night. I observed one of these hours of rehearsal one Wednesday night and was surprised at the amount of talent demonstrated by the actors. Director Mike Gilmartin would occasionally glance angrily at the ceiling, but his anger wasn’t directed at the players - they were doing a fine job, especially considering the fact that they were doing the scene without scripts for the first time, with little prompting from Producer Vicki Kichman. He was angry with the room. Due to the sad lack of fine arts facilities on campus, and the destruction of last year’s playhouse, Scene I, the “Two-Bit Players” are forced to perform in a room hardly meant to be a theatre. It’s a beautiful room, with its wooden pation in the electoral process. Creighton expressed particular concern over Nixon’s vetoes of educational legislation, since the Student NEA is composed of college students who are preparing to enter the education profession. The youth leader charged that the Administration had overblown certain events at the Republican National Convention which he declared were designed to give the false impression of overwhelming youth support for the Republicans. In contrast, McGovern “did not bus us around to applaud for him as Richard Nixon did in Miami." “We find it disconcerting,” Creighton continued, “that the Nixon Administration placed an extremely low prioi-ty on youth involvement for 40 months and then in the 6 months before reelection time, that position was reversed in an effort to win another four years in the White House.” Referring to the “now infamous statement” President Nixon was reported to have made, Creighton said: “George McGovern will not refer to this country’s youth leaders as bums, and George McGovern’s vice-president will most assuredly not become a vehicle to stymie youthful leaders.” Everything for the ladies and girls of CCC! Sweaters — Slacks — Sportswear etc. ROCKWELL'S Coming’s Leading Department Store beams and its history as a Knights of Columbus meeting hall. But it has a horrible echo. The British-accented words of the players bounced around the empty room, making it extremely difficult to understand at times, especially when I was behind the speaker, as many in the theatre-in-the-round audience will be. Probably the best answer for the echo is to pack a full house of 200 sound-absorbing bodies in the theatre all three nights (November 9th, 10th, and 11th.) If you care to help absorb some sound and see a fine, relevant play in the process, all you have to do is present 25 cents and a student I.D. card to a drama club member and you will be presented with a ticket. Tickets will also be sold in the Commons and at the door. If you don’t have a student I.D. it will cost $1.00, still a bargain. Since seating is limited to 200 and since drama productions usually play to full houses, an early ticket purchase is recommended. ROOFING MECHANIC to apply roofing part time ...

The Crier Sports Page 11 CCorning Community College _Nov. 3, 1972 1972-73 CCC Basketball Schedule To Morrisville by JIM JESSUP This past Saturday, the CCC soccer team traveled to Mor-risville. Although highly outclassed, the team managed to hold this powerhouse scoreless for the first half. Just after the second half started, Morrisville managed to put their machine in high gear and mounted an attack that yeilded them five goals. Coming, who is primarily noted for its defense, came through again. Although giving up 5 goals, they time and again stopped oncoming attacks from the powerful Morrisville front line. Marty Pelevic, starting his first collegiate game ever in the crease, played brilliandy for the Barons. He stopped numerous shots, many of them from only a few yards away. Greg Martin, Kenny Klane, and Art Maio continuely broke up Morrisville's short passing attack around and near the goal. Many times unable to hit their own cutting men, they brought the ball up too near midfield and then unloaded long passes to their offense. Coming’s offense has come a long way since the beginning of the year. Mike Petos-ki is leading the way and the team with most points scored, although Jerry Donahoe was very close behind until he was halted with a serious leg injury. Jeny is now coming back and is almost back to old form. Larry Giarardi, “Lawrence of Elmira,” has shown Coach Toelhurst he really wants to play soccer. After being benched earlier in the season, Larry has been popping in goals from all over the place. Although the offense didn't score Saturday, they had many shots on goal, but just could not manage to sneak on by their goalie. Coming who played brilliantly throughout the game, couldn’t put a ball past their goalie and went down to defeat 5-0. Nov. 11 Sat. Alumni 8:00 Nov. 17 Fri.

But we have to remember the large amount of Rookies on the team and the fact that the veterans of the squad only have a year or so of experience. Many of the fans have blamed "No hands Hannah” for the large amount of goals scored against Coming. This is not so. Anyone who has attended any of Coming's losses realize that it was the defensive secondary that enabled two, three, or four individuals to come down by STEVE SPARKUHLE on Hannah and score. I decided to speak with Derrill about some of the problems this year and here’s what he has to say. “Steve, I've been playing goalie for five years, and I think that on our team we really have some good fullbacks; but we’ve played some of the top teams in the nation; take Monroe for instance, they’re No. 2 and look at Morrisville, they’re No. 6. I think Coming has the most "closely knit” team I’ve ever played on. Anyone that’s in our “Own League” we’ve beat and beat bad, but when we’re facing teams with foreigners and players who have ten years experience, what do you think is going to happen? Hell, Spark, if any of our guys had half the experience of some of these other teams, we sure as heck be tougher than we are now!” So fans we must be sure, before we jump on any individual players that we realize what our players are up against. Instead of criticism, let’s get behind them and be a bit more encouraging. Team 1. Heads 2. Rathole 3. Medulla 4.

Alumni Beats Varsity by DAN GRAY One week ago last Sunday started out as a cool autumn day but in several households throughout this area people were getting excited about seeing old friends and putting on Soccer spikes for the first time this year. On that Sunday, Fall Weekend, the 1972 Soccer Team had invited the alumni back for the annual contest of skill and old bones vs. young conditioned athletes. The game started as having most for this year’s team with a well balanced offensive attack and strong defense game in the first half. At half-time after the first 45 minutes of action the alumni were trailing by a score of 3 to 1. Feeling on top of the world and as lucky as can be the varsity completely fell apart as the alumni combined with a seven man offensive attack with every man up front scoring to start the second half. The alumni had the great names of players that have played before at Coming, and also two coaches. The front line consisted of Don T this year’s coach anMb iUFLATioN, | URM.

Anti-McGovern Campaign in S. Viet SAIGON (LNS) - South Vietnamese President Nguyen Van Thieu is letting everybody know just what he thinks of Democratic presidential candidate George McGovern. Radio and television spots, some of which go on for more than 10 minutes, have lambasted McGovern with such epithets as “vile”, "brazen”, “mad dog", and “traitor.” The government-controlled broadcasts began as soon as McGovern was nominated in July but increased in intensity after the Democrat said he expected Theiu “and his cohorts” to flee the country if Nixon lost in November. High-ranking Saigon officials don’t seem to be losing sleep over that possibility but have joined in the attacks nevertheless. “George Meany is right when he calls McGovern an apologist for the Communists,” said one strong Thieu supporter, Senator Huynh Van Cao. South Vietnamese Ambassador to the U.S., Tran Kim Phuong, has accused McGovern of “gross violation of international courtesy” and “bad manners exceeding the limits of human decency.”
