MUSHROOMS GROWING IN LIBRARY
Do to the marvelous construction of MCC the library
rugs are rotting away do to
leaks.
Mushrooms have sprouted
up in the decaying rugs. The
MD suggests we process and
sell our new found windfall —
thereby creating revenue to
repair leaks.
Good's News
o
By John Kngels
Ernie Pintoff's "Dynamite
Chicken," one of the most talkedabout films on college campuses
throughout the United States, will
be shown at Monroe Community
College on Tuesday, March 14. The
humorous. 70-minute flick, which
reflects, among other things
current protest themes such as
black militancy and draft
resistance, will be shown in room
9-100 at 1:30 p.m. and in the pub at
4 and 8 p.m.
Produced, written and directed
by Pintoff, a native New Yorker,
"Dynamite Chicken" was created
primarily for u n i v e r s i t y
audiences. The humor is hip and
pointedly anti-Establishment.
In this multi-media movie, clips
from old film.s. featuring James
Cagney, Pat O'Brien and
Humphrey Bogart can be seen.
Joan Baez, a folk-singer will
appear with her husgand; Richard
Pryor, a black comedian, will
offer several witty comments; and
Ron Carey, dressed as a priest,
dances on the steps of St. Patrick's
WWVMIIE
CWCREN
Cathedral in New York City.
In a recent review, Paine
Knickerbocker of the San Francisco Chronicle said: "Dynamite
Chicken" is lively, unpretentious
and enjoyable — a constantly
changing and amusingly disrespectful glance at the world
around us."
In the film can be witnessed a
series of quick-flashed events on
the screen, giving a unique collage
effect. In one instance, a playful
nun strips, with a mischievous
twinkle, and a fat man becomes a
bore with his gross sounds over
numerous phone calls.
Other portions of the flick are
hysterically dominated by the Ace
Trucking Company, Allen
Ginsberg, Leonard Cohen and Paul
Krassner.
The title actually has nothing to
do with the movie theme because
there is no single theme. It merely
indicates the satirical content in
Pintoff's semi-masterpiece.
Pintoff. a 39-year-old satirist,
contends that there is no message
in "Dynamite Chicken" and no
real script. Communication
through live action is stressed,
with dialogue and animation
utilized to a certain extent.
The staff of the Monroe Doctrine
has invited me to contribute a
column on a semi-regular basis.
We hope to accomplish two things.
First. I will try to discuss with the
readers matters of current concern to the college community.
Second, I will try to dispel the
illusion that I do not exist.
A current topic at the moment is
"tuition". I believe it would be
helpful to explain very briefly how
a community college is financed
so that the amount of tuition can
appear in its proper perspective. A
community college under the State
University of New York system is
a fairly autonomous institution as
compared to the State operated
units of SUNY, such as Brockport,
Geneseo and others.
We-are operated by an independent Board of Trustees appointed by the Governor and the
County Legislature and get our
money from three sources, rather
than one. such as the State
operated units. The amount called
"tuition" at the State operated
units is really money collected to
amortize the costs of buildings and
does not go to operating costs, and
is one of three sources of income.
The State of New York in a normal
year pays 40% of our operating
costs, subject to a complicated
formula.
In any case, the State while
agreeing to pay 40%, will not permit its 40% to rise more than $35
per student in any given year. The
student contribution in the form of
tuition is subject to three restrictions. One, the student's contribution in the form of tuition may
not exceed one-third the cost of his
education. Our tuition, which is
now $500 means that the cost of
education of each student is approximately $1500 per year.
As costs rise, this one-third is
subject to increase. The one-third
restriction is also subject to
change by the State Legislature.
Two, the tuition charge may not
exceed the charge at the State
operated units, which was $550 this
year but will go to $650 next year.
This does not mean that our tuition
will go to $650 next year.
It only means that this is a
ceiling which we may not exceed.
If we. accidentally, collect more
tuition than the one-third, we must
use it to reduce the students' share
next year. Three, we are not permitted to submit a budget to SUNY
which contains a student surplus,
i.e. more tuition income than onethird of the budget.
The third source of funds for our
operating comes from the County
of Monroe. This year, the State of
New York paid 40%, the County
27% and the students 33%. The
Education Law indicates that the
County of Monroe, our sponsor, is
responsible for the balance of the
budget after the students have paid
one-third and the State its share.
Since our operating costs will
rise each year, the student's onethird will rise according to the
formula explained above. Because
of several unknown factors yet to
be determined by the State
Legislature, it is difficult to state
what the one-third will be next
year but I would suggest that it
will not rise by more than $25 to
$30 for a full-time student per
year.
I would welcome your
suggestions as to topics which I
might discuss with you in this
column.

DOCTRINE
To the Editor:
How can women fight in wars,
support families, pay alimony, do
heavy labor or even serve equal
prison terms when they a r e
reduced to being the second sex?
Really, how can such tasks be
performed by chicks, the inferior
sex and flakey women who should
be seen and not heard?
From adolesence a woman in
America is taught to develop and
have her existence depend on her
physical exterior. You become a
slave to vanity, your whole being is
geared towards appearing or
seeming to appear as a "creampuff." In the meantime her intellectual capacities, intelligence
and ambition are surpressed. Why
she'll never "get a man" if she
uses her intelligence or ambition
for a career or future of her own.
Women like Gloria Steinem,
Betty Frieden, Kate Millet and
Germaine Greer are not "braless
dykes." They are intelligent and
well educated women. Being the
leaders of their movement, they
have assumed a radical viewpoint.
Their demands are of course
radical with the idea of gaining
momentum and getting people to
listen. These women are leaders in
fighting stereotypes, forced
morality and assumed roles.
Womens liberation is a complex
movement. It covers every social
aspect. It's motive is change and
the main underlying factor is sexual politics. A woman's body is her
own, why is it men are forever
making rules and guidelines for it?
A classic example is, since when is
a woman's uterus property of the
U.S. government.
So before such uneducated words
as "flakey women" "chicks" and
"bra-less dykes" get thrown
around I suggest some reading.
Try a little Sexual Politics or The
Female Eunuch.

To the Editor:
With regards to your editorial in
the February 24, 1972 Monroe Doctrine, I'd like to first apologize for
the fact that the film "Viva Max"
could not be shown in room 9-100.
The reason behind this is because
the day before the sound system in
9-100 blew a photo-resistor. Since
the movie was not originally a
silent film I felt that showing it in
the Pub would be much better than
not showing it at all. As far as
advertising goes, we didn't have
enough time to inform students of
the change in location.
Mike. I'll say this, I myself have
not been completely satisfied with
the professionalism of showing
films in the past. Though this is not
directly the fault of the pro-
jectionists, I can give you no excuses for not having the projection
equipment in proper operating
condition. Since I have been newly
oppointed to the position, my first
and main concern has beeen to
straighten out the technical
problems.
Thanks to Mr. Les Weatherbee
of the A.V. department, 9-100's
sound system has been repaired.
Projection equipment is being
checked and registered for consistency in showing quality. In
addition, Jim McBride and myself
have scheduled another Pub film
orgy in the near future, and we
plan to have a much more versatile and dependable sound
system than in the past. I hope you
can enjoy the MCC Flicks to the
best advantage possible in the
future.
We will be showing some films
in cinemascope this semester,
(wide-screen).
Sincerely,
Len Barish
Film Com. Chairman
Dear Mr. Niedermaier,
Your most recent column concerning Women's Lib acted as the
proverbial last straw, and compels
me to make several observations
concerning the column.
Considering the Women's Lib
article in particular, I must say
you are of that very legion you've
deemed "braless dykes", although
"braless" in your case is through a
lack of necessity. The same
brainless accusations, the same
sexually bigoted attitudes, and the
same mindless labels pervade
your lip service rhetoric, as they
do that of your supposed enemies.
You both do indeed walk down the
same tactical lover's lane, hand in
hand, and feed together upon the
same passionate, distorting hates,
inspired, I suppose, by an equally
irrational experience of pain in
your formative years.
In relation to the column in
general, I find that your very valid
and solid structure of comment,
born out of intelligent observation,
to be undermined by the ultimately impotent force of a sensationally affected outrage. It
would be genuinely more valuable
for you to cast a more dispassionate glance at your subject
with a pen less given to wise ass
assininities which, in the end,
serve no constructive purpose.
Sincerely,
John Conley
Ed. Note. Thank you John — I am
not sure I understand what you are
saying. But I feel that it is exactly
the kind of muck I threw.
Ph. 2713685
To the Editor:
To Dr. Good and every member of
the Monroe Community College
Family,
It is still hard for me to believe
that my little Pontiac will not be
going around the parking circle
and turning into #38, but it was
very nice to be met on the day of
my reception by Mr. Belle Isle
from Security and be given a
special parking place on that
special day!
I would love to have the time to
write each and every one of you to
thank you for the warmth of your
reception and for your thoughtful
consideration in creating a
scholarship in my honor. As you all
know, s c h o l a r s h i p s for t h e
students has been my "pet" since
the college began and also it has
been my pleasure to work with the
Board Scholarship Committee to
make the fund grow. The College
has such a wealth of opportunity
for young people, it seems a shame
that any aspiring student should be
denied the privilege of attending
because of financial need.
After meeting all you nice people, my fiance, Tom Hickey, said he
knew now why I said I enjoyed so
much my ten years' association
with the college. Your cheery
greetings, friendly chats and
offers of assistance whenever
needed all add up to personal
friendship. What more can one
ask?
Tom joins me in saying "Thank
you" for everything!
Very sincerely,
Kay Weston
An Open Letter To
The Administration
This is to voice my vehement
complaint about the registration
procedure for evening school
students. An Intolerable situation
has been allowed to continue
semester after semester with no
intelligent action being taken to
correct it.
It is impossible to believe that
the administration is unaware that
hopeful registrants stand hour
after t o r t u o u s hour, often
fruitlessly, certainly needlessly, to
accomplish what could probably
be done in a matter of minutes by
mail.
One further runs the maze in
trying to direct a complaint to the
proper department.
It is disturbing to think that an
institution which is dedicated to
the promotion and development of
intelligent human beings and
ideas, is in practice its very
antithesis.

EDITORIAL
There will be many people who will be sorry to see the snow
dissappear this year. These unfortunate souls are the many
commuters to MCC. You may not have consciously noticed, but
think about it. Wasn't there a lot more parking on the days when
the lines in the lots were covered with snow? You bet there was!
It was because the people parked according to the space instead
of the lines.
It is really a shame that the parking lots were divided with
spaces so large. It seems to me that one could park cadillac
limosines next to each other, and freely open both same side
doors completely without a scratch. To the parking lot planners it
was a mere technicallity that most students own compact cars.
So now, when spring comes, we can all look forward to
getting our cars towed away. Because like sheep, once the lines
become visible we will all have to park within them. Even if it
does mean that only half the parking space will be filled. And the
unfortunate students who have to park after the hour of nine A.M.
will just have to walk. If only the snow would stay until May!

Black Awareness
Climax Month
The Bottom of the Bucket, but .
Monday and Tuesday, February
28 and 29, saw the climax of Black
Awareness Month at MCC. Events
were scheduled during the entire
month of February, geared toward
promoting awareness of the Black
man's cluture among the entire
student populace.
A hand-clapping, foot-stomping
crowd settled in the Little Theatre
on Monday night to take part in our
Gospel program. Contemporary,
as well as traditional Gospel songs
will be included in the program,
featuring four superb local groups
and two soloists.
Harmonettes, Church of God in
Christ Sr. Choir. Mass Gospel
Choir, Eli Wilson & Co.
The high point of the evening
was Eli Wilson who hails from
Colgate Rochester Divinity. Eli
did a solo performance while
playing the organ, and received a
standing ovation from the crowd.
His Gospel rendition of "Bridge
over Troubled Waters" and
"Amen" bordered on jazz productions when he played them
magnificently, and elicited comments and yells of approval from
the audience.
Every group in the program
made an attempt to involve the
audience, and the suggestion was
well accepted. People emerged
from the theatre singing, clapping,
and begging for more.
Bottom of the Bucket, But!!!
And to provide the absolute ultimate of climaxes for any
schedule, the Bottom of the
Bucket, But !!! dance troup performed Tuesday night in our Little
Theatre for a capacity crowd.
Dancers swirled, leaped, and ran
across the stage in a sensual,
passionate rhythm, each revealing
the excellent dance technique
typical of hard work and disciplined practice. The audience
sighed when the opening group of
female dancers set the mood for
the night with seductive body
movements, seemingly beyond the
capabilities of the human torso.
And then, with a sudden onrush,
the male dancers streaked across
the stage keeping up the fast and
steady pace with muscular bodies.
Garth Fagan, from Brockport
S.U. organized the troup from a
bunch of interested students at the
Cooperative College Center
downtown. For 2 years of hard
work the dance group is in
magnificent form.
The various dances centered
around many different themes, but
all dealt with the Black experience. Music was chosen by
Garth and consisted mainly of
heavy rhythmic beats and liberation songs by Black artists.
Says Garth — "We celebrate our
illustrious cultural heritage —
Africa, West Indies, Mississippi,
Harlem, etc. But must also deal
with the vital and explosive issues
of today and through discipline,
research and experimentation
maintain the true and traditional
place of Black art and Black artists — way out front."
The highlight of the evening, as
far as the crowd was concerned,
was a one woman show by Pricilla
Scott, who portrayed, the complexity of the Black woman in this
society - titled "Four Women".
Miss Scott rendered a superb performance and received a 2-minute
applause from the crowd for a job
extremely well done.
WINE BOTTLING ANYONE?
A NEW CHEMISTRY COURSE
Students are needed to bottle
wine that was fermented from
Canandaigua grape juice last
semester by CHE 110 students.
Bring your own bottle. All former
and present CHE 110 students have
first priority and all other students
on a first come, first served basis.
Contact Robert Flanigan or Myron
Cucci of the C h e m i s t r y
Department.
Contemporary Chemistry, CHE
110. is a new chemistry course
designed to meet the needs of the
nonscience major.
Contemporary topics, such as
environmental pollution, drugs,
food additives, megavitamin fad.
and organic gardening are correlated with basic principles of
organic
chemistry
and
biochemistry. Field trips to
Widmer's Winery in Naples and
the Monroe County Conservation
Council's Delta Laboratory are
also included.
In summary, the Chemistry
Department recommends this new
course in conjunction with CHE
100 or CHE 101 for fulfilling degree
science requirements for liberal
arts nonscience majors.
Further information may be obtained from any member of the
Chemistry Department.

RED TAPE

Associate Editor
America, the most affluent
country in the world; but so what?
There are many people who hold
this fact as though it were merely
a statistic, as though it had no
bearing on their life. But it affects
them every day, if only in the fact
that everyone has more material
goods, so each individual works for
more compared to the rest of the
world. "Failure" comes unless
one can provide a high level of
luxury for his family. Now it
should be clear, that this higher
level of satisfaction (or greater
cause of dissatisfaction, depending
on your perspective) must certainly set our very life style apart
from that of the rest of the world.
Where most people will settle for
comfortable survival, Americans
strive for excessive luxury.
Still, most people accept this
trend as a niceity of our properous
land, and to a small extent it
surely is a benefit. It is nice to
know that our fellow countrymen
are well fed and cared for. But this
same productivity that cares to
well for us, is also sending us to the
grave.
As I stated before, our high
living standards cause proportionately high standards for
satisfaction; and as the general
affluence raises our material
wealth, our satisfaction needs
swell also. The ensuing trend is
very damaging to our society.
There comes a point in the consumption of goods, where one has
nearly all he can use. In the
balance of his energy between the
provision of his wealth and its
enjoyment, he must divide his
time. So his ability to enjoy is
limited. And once he has acquired
enough goods to fill his time, no
addition of goods, regardless of
quantity, can substantially add to
his happiness (which is supposedly
what he was after in his work).
But still we see most people
trying to ease their troubles by
buying another thing, or by seeking
another unit of entertainment, or
another stimulation (like a
sandwich or a beer). What these
people don't realize, is that their
consumption beyond a certain
level actually gives them less
satisfaction than they expect, and
so it dissappoints them — actually
degracting from happiness.
There's a restaurant opening in Rochester that 1
thought you'd be interested in hearing about. It's
called STEAK & BREW. It's located at 4831 W.
Henrietta Road beside the Sheraton Gatehouse Motor
Inn. And it opens Wednesday, March 8th.
There are 28 STEAK & BREW restaurants all over
the east coast, many in college communities. For
some reason the STEAK & BREWS near colleges seem
to be our most popular locations. It could be because
with every entree you get as much draught beer as
you can drink and all the salad and bread you want.
Or because the prices are moderate, starting at
$2.95. Or maybe because the atmosphere is casual
and friently — it looks like an olde English Pub. What
ever the reason — STEAK & BREW is definitely a
favorite!
To make my point clear, take the
example of the changing American
attitudes toward food. The three
meal a day tradition has been all
but buried by the advent of many
delicious and easy to prepare
snack foods. With this general
affluence of foods, the average
household needs a greater quantity
of foods to be merely satisfied. The
average American has been turned
into an all day eating, crunching,
and snacking machine.
But is he any happier for it? No,
I would say that most Americans
are either boared or disgusted by
their constant eating. But they still
look to more and better eating as a
source of happiness. So clearly
then, with foods, we have reached
the point of satiation. And the
same is true with many other
goods.
The fact is that Americans have
to a large extent provided too well
for themselves. They can find very
little "extra satisfaction" beyond
the point of material satiation.
This does not mean t h a t
Americans must suffer for their
wealth, that is rediculous. What it
does mean is that we must balance
material pleasures with a good
measure of real life experiences.
Our senses cannot always be kept
feverishly whirling. To truely enjoy, we must always suffer to
some extend also. There is no
eternal formula for material happiness. Consumerism has distinct
limitations. So American society
must soon learn the practice of
moderation, or it will bury itself in
its throes of pleasure.

ART IN
CONCERT
By Rosemary Sherman
Each MCC student had three
chances to see Art Evans in concert this past weekend: Friday at
college hour, Friday night 8 to 11
p.m. or Saturday night also 8 to 11
p.m. (this was also "Wine and
Cheese Night" with a fifty-cent
admission price covering the first
three glasses of wine). To anyone
who could have attended but
REFUSED TO, you really struck
out!
Art Evans has been around the
music business long enough to sing
as though he is oblivious to the fact
he is not singing to close friends on
the front porch back home. He was
that smooth a singer. Despite a
rather awkward setup in the
Forum West, Mr. Evans did not
seem to be bothered too much by
it. The fact that the bulk of his
audience was on his right and left
and not in front of him didn't seem
to hamper his style at all once he
got started.
After a brief introduction, Mr.
Evans set the crowd at ease by a
few short jokes and funny tales.
Then he got warmed up and the
heat really started to radiate from
his music. Mixing moods
beautifully, he sang songs of
various themes without pausing
for more than a few seconds
between songs. Brief instrumental
endings to his serious songs such
as "Dirt Bomb" seemed to keep
the audience as magnitized as the
lyrics did. These endings gave
everyone a chance, if only for a
few fleeting seconds, to reflect on
the lyrics. During these endings
(believe it or not) you could have
heard a pin drop in the crowd — it
was that quiet. Once the last note
had been struck, the simutaneous
applause was, I felt, genuinely
eiven and earned.
Oh yes, Art Evans is Black
However, I doubt that fact occurred to very many of those people in the audience once they heard
his music and the messages it
contained. Music is a universal
language that makes all barriers,
whether they be racial, political,
religious or because of nationality,
melt at least temporarily in the
mind of each listener. Everyone
gets his own message out of music.
Art Evans just made those
barriers melt a bit faster and the
messages a bit more universal. He
also may have made those barriers
a bit harder to put back up.
Granted, he doesn't have a hit
record on the top twenty and he
didn't sing like a James Taylor or
have the voice of a Don Potter or a
Bat McGrath, but Art Evans is one
performer who will go on for years
to come. He has the ability to
convey the happenings of everyday
life and of his own life through the
magic of his music in a unique
way.

Student-Faculty Athletics
By Jeff Hill
Many students and faculty at
MCC think a formal classroom
atmosphere stifle's any informal
relationships between instructors
and students. Now, the students, in
conjunction with the faculty, are
trying to do something about it.
One of the areas we're working on
is sports. Mel Bauman, an English
instructor, is initiating the action.
With several students he is setting
up a student-faculty, doubles,
single elimination paddleball tournament that will begin Monday,
March 13 and is open to all male
and female faculty and students.
With the help of George Monagan,
Joyan F o r s y t h , and Dick
Slomkowski and other members of
the Physical Ed. Department

MONROE DOCTRINE
I AM
Monolith: Making it
in Rochester
Late last April four quiet, introspective, rather nervous
musicans walked into the Alley to
play the late gig from 1:30 to 4:00
in the morning. Totally unknown,
the out-of-town musicans surveyed
the packed room of sweating people digging the Powerhouse Blues
Band. The audience was deeply
into the heavy blues sound, almost
somnambulistic.
"They'll hate us," someone
commented. "It'll be like dropping
Led Zeppelin into an old person's
home."
Dressed in rumpled work clothes
and hauling their own equipment,
the group was hasselled by setup
men and mocked by groupies from
the other band. The audience hardly noticed them as they walked on
stage; they didn't even look like a
band.
What happened next was like
something out of a surrealistic
dream. Today, eleven months
later, people who were there are
still taling about that fantastic
night at the Alley.
The group opened with Grand
Funk's Paranoid, and the audience
literally went berserk. They
charged the stage 30 seconds after
the song began, tore their shirts
from their backs, danced on
tables, screamed and jumped
about. The group, terrified at first
by the wild freeks leaping from the
smoke-filled shadows, ripped into
Paranoid by Black Sabbath, More
screams. Fists raised. "Right
On!" "Right On!" They played
continuously for 2Vz hours without
a break; the audience wouldn't let
them stop.
Rochester had discovered
Monolith.
The following week, the president of a Rochester booking agency heard Monolith in a studio
recording session. He booked the
new group into the Attic in
Brockport.
They Alley scene was repeated
at The Attic. The manager of the
Brockport club said no band had
ever gotten the response Monolith
did in his room. Word of the two
room-busting gigs spread. People
were asking, "Who the hell is that
fantastic new group?"
It took a while for most people to
actually see Monolith. The band
had been quickly adopted by the
freak crowds at The Alley and The
Attic, but other booking agents and
club owners remained unconvinced. Musicians, however,
hearing about he group went to
The Alley to check them out. The
owners of the Alley, realizing that
they had a good thing going, raised
Monolith's price from $50 to $75,
and put them on a program warming up for Rain.
Rain dug the new group and
helped spread the word. Monolith
was booked by Jay Artists to warm
up the Club for The Buddy Miles
Band and almost a thousand more
fans were converted. The next big
break came as Rain and North
convinced Red, White and Blues
productions to allow Monolith to
play warmup for them at a U of R
concert. Over two thousand people
responded to the new group by
giving them a standing, screaming
ovation at the end of their act. By
the next Rain-North-Monolith concert, at the Fairgrounds, the group
got a standing ovation before they
even started to play.
Today, Monolith is recognized by
everyone as one of Rochester's
hottest and best rock groups. They
are paid up to ten times what the
Alley originally gave them for a
gig. The group has had two local
TV shows, one on Channel 13 taped
at the Club before it closed, and
the more recent Odyssey program
on Channel 21. In the future they
will be doing a live concert on
WCMF-FM.
They have recorded enough
material for an album but do not
plan to release it since it
represents the early development
of the group. Their new origiinal
material is far stronger and they
have passed a couple of recording
contract offers because they want
to develop even further before
breaking nationally. In the meantime the group has joined the
strong Jay Artists agency and have
excited audiences across the state
- In Syracuse, Ithaca, Lake
Placid, Saranac Lake Albany, and
Buffalo.
Yet, in spite of their success, the
group's heads have remained virtually unchaged. They're still
super humble and introspective.
According to bassist Tom
Barone, "There's a wall between
many bands and the people. The
bands come on, and deliverately so
as it they were a little better than
the average guy or chick in the
audience. You know the type of
rock musician I'm taling about.
He's just a little cooler; he's
dressed more stylishly' he seems
distat d i s t a n t , almost unapproachable or idolistic. I'm not
putting that down. It's a special
trip, part of the act, so to speak.
He's the kind of performer that
continues to perform even
offstage, as long as the audience is
around."

CONCERT IN STEREO
FULL OF SURPRISES
Mr. Morey and group attired
in now band uniforms at concert.
The c o n c e r t p e r f o r m e d
Thursday night, February 24th by
the MCC concert band and
directed by Mr. Charles Morey,
proved to be a far cry from the
typically boring and monotonous
band concert that sometimes lulls
an audience to sleep, for it was full
of variety and a few welcome
surprises.
New band uniforms were the
first noticable surprise and added
to the professionalism and unity of
the group as a whole. The girls
wore gold vests over white blouses
and black skirts, while the guys
wore gold jackets, and black
trousers.
The group of about 50 members
is the biggest in 5 years, and in Mr.
Morey's opinion, has the most
potential for becoming a top rate
group.
The audience of less than 100,
although small, was appreciative
of the content and unique arrangement of music which kept their
a t t e n t i o n t h r o u g h o u t the
performance.
The band was split into sections
that were featured in selections
relevant to their section. The entire band played the first selection
which was a precise march piece.
The 2nd piece was a unique percussion piece featuring the various
percussion and keyboard instruments. The next piece
spotlighted the woodwind section
performing the piece "Arioso"
which was a flowing and moving
piece appropriate for the blended
sounds of the flutes and reeds.
Following that was a selection by
the brass section called "Spanish
Dance No. 4" which displayed the
mellow sounds of the brass
instruments.
After a few selections by the
entire band, an interlude with a
group of 4 band members performed a couple of modern tuens,
utilizing a piano, guitar, drums,
and the voice of Sherri Flanders.The band closed on a difficult
piece, which was previously performed by the Eastman Wind
Ensemble, called "American
Overture"
Although it may seem impossible to have given such a difficult concert after only 3 weeks of
rehearsal, the outcome proved
that anything is possible when people can get together in a common
effort to provide a quality performance to the MCC community.

SPRING REGISTRATION:
LARGEST EVER
The Black Students of MCC are presenting a fashion
show to the tune of Jazz. It's called "Discovery 72' "
Spring Registration in the history
of the school. Over 8.000 day and
evening students were here for
registration.
About two hundred more
students registered for day
sessions this spring, 4,374 students
from 4,196 last spring. That figure
includes another record for a
spring semester. There were 686
new students as compared to 606
last spring.
Proceeds contributed to Discovery program

Did the Spring Registration find
you standing long hours, crushed
by about a million other people? At
the end of the line were you
fighting the computers because the
classes you wanted were already
filled by others? Then, what you
suspected all along was right. You
never saw so many people

The evening session here also set
a record high, 3,714 students, up
150 from last fall. That's the
largest evening registration for
either fall or spring semester in
the history of the college.
Despite the high registration
figures for a spring semester, the
day enrollment this semester actually dropped from about 4800 to
the present 4400.
AUDITIONS FOR
Films
By John Engels
The student activity personnel
have been busy preparing for what
could be the biggest social month
of the school year. Films, guest
speakers and three-week art exhibit are just a few of the events
that will dot the March calendar.
Today (Thursday) at 1:30p.m. in
room 9-100 the film "The Chicago
Conspiracy Trial" will be shown.
The movie features an account of
the events that took place during
the trial of the Chicago 7. Every
word spoken in this unusual film
was taken from the 23,000 pages of
the trial transcript.
Cliff Gorman fills the role of
controversial Abbie Hoffman and
Al Freeman. Jr. plays Bobby Seale
while Morris Carnovsky takes the
part of Judge Hoffman.
The film highlights the major
arguments of both sides and shows
the actual cross-examination of
key witnesses.
The Chicago 7 said they came to
Chicago to express their moral
outrage over the war in Vietnam.
The United States government
contended that they came to incite
a riot. The facts are presented in
"The Chicago Conspiracy Trial.
SEE FIRST BLACK
CONGRESSWOMEN IN U.S.
Starting on Monday, March 13,
the first Black congresswoman in
the United States, Republican
Shirley Chisholm of New York,
will be interviewed in an uncensored video taping "The New

campuses throughout the country.
The program will be aired
periodically from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m.
in the Pub. Brick Lounge, Game
Room and the front hallway of the
student center.
In the discussion, Chisholm talks
about her radical solutions to the
problems of America. None of the
questions in this 50-minute

Boxing Program
Underway
A new activity has been introduced to MCC. On Mondays
and Thursdays during college
hour boxing intramurals will take
place in the wrestling room. Mr.
Kress and Mr. McHugh, two MCC
gym teachers, will be the instructors and they urge that
anyone interested in this type of
phsycial activity to come down and
"start getting into shape!" Insurance wise, full-time students
will be covered but the night and
part-time students may participate only if they have paid their
activity fee.
Mr. McHugh has emphasized
that first of all there will be five
formal instruction periods plus
conditioning before engaging in
any physical contact. After being
taught all the boxing techniques
and the person has been thoroughly
conditioned he is then ready for
action. Kquipment mat win De
used by the boxers will be
headgear, mouthgear and 16 oz.
boxing gloves as compared to 8 oz.
gloves used by the professional
fighter.
If all goes well and enough people get involved we may have a
boxing tournament, a first of its
kind at MCC. According to Mr.
Kress and Mr. McHugh, who teach
combatives during gym class, they
say that "boxing proves to be one
of the most popular activities."

Women Intramural
By E.B.P.
Women's Intramural basketball
started February 28 with six teams
participating. This has been the
biggest turnout ever for women's
basketball in this campus. The
girl's game is not as high scoring
as the men's but it sure is as
exciting. For example in the first
week of playing, Casey's Aces and
Turi's Tigers battled to a 4-4 tie
which went into sudden death
overtime.
The six teams that participate
are: Melanie Smith's team undefeated thus far; Turi's Tigers;
the Road Runners ( a lot of talent
in this team, too bad it isn't in
playing basketball); the Young
Snappers; Casey's Aces looking
very promising with their leading
player Amy Henderberg; and last
but not least The Faculty, this
team is composed of all the talent
from the Women's Faculty of all
around the college, The leading
scorers in the League are Melainie
Smith averaging six points a game
and Debbie McKendrick with eight
points a game,
There is also a lot of laughter in
Women's basketball. In one game
the referee didn't change baskets
during the whole game, while in
another one the referee insisted in
changing baskets every quarter.
The girls will be battling it out
until March 24th in the gym every
Friday college hour,

The scoring list shows Murphy
and Snead are in a deadlock for
12th place overall with a 20.8
average each. In 20 games, the two
have scored 416 points apiece.
Murphy, a 6' Freshman uses his
great leaping ability and deadly
lefthanded jump shot to score
most of his points. His highest
total in a regular season game was
in the recent game against
Cobleskill when he connected for
32 points. Murphy also has led
teams in scoring when he played in
high school. At Marshall High, he
led the entire City League in
scoring as a junior with a 24.3
average. He hit for almost 20
points a game the following year
while attending Monroe High.
Austin Snead is the crafty court
general for Monroe. The former
Sodus flash has an uncanny ability
to drive through the lane against
much bigger opponents. Besides
scoring, Snead averages more than
eight assists per game. His highest
output this year was a 30 point
outburst against Auburn CC.
Like Murphy and Snead, Fryer
has also been a top scorer
throughout his career. The 6*
sophomore guard averaged more
than twenty points a game while
leading Geneva High into the Section V Basketball tournament.
Fryer currently ranks 27th in the
region with a 17.3 average. Often
overlooked is his great defensive
play. Harold usually guards the
opponent's top player.
Only arch-rival Erie CC has two
players ahead of the SneadMurphy tandem and no other team
can boast of thee players in the top
thirty. Calvin Murphy, Erie's 6'7"
Center is ranked 9th on the list
with a 21.6 mean while teammate
Greg McGill (21.4) is close behind
in thetenthslotMcGill and Murphy
scored 95 points between them in
Erie's two regular season wins
over Monroe.

Star Injured
By Tom Batzold
MCC pitching prospect Bill
Muoio suffered a broken arm at
the first workout session of the
Spring baseball squad, last week.
The injury, to his non-throwing
arm should not affect his pitching
in any way according to Head
coach Dave Chamberlain. The
fracture did not require an
operation.
The mishap occurred as the
team was running wind sprints in
the gym. Muoio built up too much
speed and then stuck out his arm in
an attempt to stop himself from
hitting the wall. "I was trying to
beat (Denny) Farrell in the race. I
stuck out my arm and the bone just
snapped," Muoio explained.
Muoio, a Freshman will be able
to resume workouts next week
with the arm now in a cast.
Hopefully, he will be in shape when
the cast comes off about a month
from now. Coach Chamberlain
reflected his feelings about the
injury by saying; "A month from
now if that had happened he would
have been finished. I don't think
the injury will bother him any. We
can't afford to lose a pitcher
because we don't have that
many."
Muoio, a 6' former Bishop
Kearney and East High star is
expected to be one of the starters
on the baseball team this Spring.

CAGE SEASON ENDS
WITH REGIONAL LOSS
By Tom Batzold
Sports Editor
BINGHAMTON - Monroe Community College has ended its 197172 basketball season on a low note
following a 87-67 loss to Broome
Community College in the NJCAA
Sub-Regional basketball tourney
on March 3rd.
Broome, runnerup in the
tourney, capitalized on a cold
shooting Monroe offense to break
open a close game in the second
half. MCC trailed by only seven at
half (37-30) and later 43-37 before
Broome unleashed a 24-6 blitz to
take complete control.
Monroe, 5th seeded in the
tourney, arrived in Binghamton a
day ahead of game time in a very
optimistic mood. Only ten days
before, MCC had led the entire
game against Broome before
falling 93-80 at MCC.
Coach Murph S+HAPIRO TOOK
NO CHANCES TO BEING
"snowed out" as had happened in
last years t o u r n a m e n t . A
snowstorm forced the team to turn
back on route to the game at Erie
Community. The tournament
chairman ruled that Monroe had
used "negligence" by not arriving
ahead of time and awarded
Monroe's opponent a victory by
forfeit. Ironically, Broome CC also
was forced to stop traveling in the
storm and they too lost by forfeit.
Coach Shapiro's strategy against
Broome was to stop high scoring
forward Greg Baldwin, who had
burned the Tribunes with 27 points
at MCC. Shapiro went with a "diamond and one" defense in which
four players form a diamond shape
zone while top defensive player
Harold Fryer shadowed Baldwin
man for man.
Fryer limited Baldwin to only
tow first half field goals but
another Hornet stung Monroe.
"Bones" Sanders, a 6-2 jumping
jack, played his best game of the
year in leading Broome with 24
points. Sixteen of those points
came in the first half when
Sanders drove in 15 of Broome's
first 26 points.
Monroe shot a horrible 28% (1539) in the half yet only trailed by
seven. The Tribune fastbreak and
provided most of the scoring while
Broome was able to limit Monroe
to only one or two shots at the
basket each trip down the floor.
Austin Snead led Monroe with 10
first half points.
MCC continued its poor shooting
in the second half and finally
collapsed one-third of the way
through the period when Broome
began its rampage. Mark Florack
scored from the corner with 15:05
left and Monroe remained
scoreless until Robbie Murphy
broke the ice with 12:57 remaining.
The freeze continued until Florack
hit another jumper at the 8:51
mark of the half.
By that time Broome had
stretched the lead to over twenty
points and Monroe had lost the
services of high-scoring Robbie
Murphy. Murphy picked up his 5th
foul with 9:10 left and had accounted for only ten points far
below his 20.1 average.
Broome sharpshooter Larry
Lobacz led the hot-shooting
Hornets with 14 second half points
as Broome remained hot from the
field. They finished with almost a
50% shooting percentage as they
knocked in 35 of 77 attempts. On
the other end of the scale, Monroe
finished with their worst shooting
average of the year, just over 30%.
Broome also held a healthy 64-31
rebounding average over the
Tribunes.
The only bright spot for Monroe
was Mark Florack's 19 point performance. Florack hit nine shots,
missed only eight and rebounded
well. Over the last seven games,
the former East Rochester star
has averaged more than twenty
points a game.
1-1 tie and remained tied for the
lead. Both teams have seven
games left including one more
game against each other which
could decide the championship.
Sophomores on the squad include
Nelson Cupello, Ferdinand
Treusacher, Dave Grinnell, Gary
Crykin, Herron Allen, Kip Jordan,
Ed Pagani, Guy Pixley and Tony
Rizzo.
The MCC Frosh are certainly not
a pushover in the league. Despite a
mediocre 3-3 record, the Frosh
could become spoilers in the
cloosing weeks of the season. The
Sophomore team narrowly beat
them (5-4) in one of the best games
of the season. Other losses were
suffered at the hands of the UR
Upperclass team and the strong
Hungarian team.
Freshman students participating
a r e : Craig Reynolds, Bill
Sobolewski, Bill Smith, Einer
Thorarinsson, Lou Malec, Ray
Ingleese, Floyd Schilstra, Tom
Graves and Sergio Burgos. These
players will form the nucleus of
next year's Varsity squad.
Highlight of the Indoor Season
will be a tournament at the UR on
the weekend of March 19th.
Twelve teams will compete led by
strong units from Hartwick, Buffalo State, University of Buffalo
and Brockport State. The two MCC
teams will combine into one
against this stiff competition.
There is also a possibility that
Monroe will send a representative
to a tournament in Akron, Ohio.
Plans for this tournament have not
yet been disclosed.
MCC soccer coach Joseph Mancarella is pleased with the
enthusiasm in the Winter
program. However, he does not

excuses after the disappointing
loss. The dejected Shapiro simply

Soccer Players Get
Their Kicks At U of R
By Tom Batzold
Sports Editor
More than three months have
passed since the MCC soccer team
finished runnerup in the National
Finals in Miami, Florida, yet the
soccer players are still enjoying a
steady diet of organized soccer.
Where can you play soccer in the
middle of winter?
The Tribune soccer players are
currently participating in a unique
experimental soccer league at the
University of Rochester's field
house.
The league, started in early
February, has taken the basic
rules of soccer and revised certain
ones so they are adaptable to inside play. There are two major
differences: first, only six men
(instead of the usual eleven) are
on each team; second, no goalies
are used. To score, the ball must
be kicked so that it hits a small 3'
by 6' area which serves as the
goal. The games consist of two
twenty-five minute halves.
MCC fields two of the eight
teams participating in the league.
One Monroe team consists of
Sophomores and the other is made
up of exclusively firstyear
students. The sophomore team is
currently co-leader in the league
standings. Other reams participating
are:
UR
Upperclassmen, UR Frosh, St.
John Fisher, RIT and two fine
amateur clubs, United, and the
other co-leader, the Hungarian
amateurs.
So far the league has been a
success with keen competition
among the squads. Recently, the
Hungarian team and the Monroe
Sophomores met in a battle of
unbeatens. The two struggles to a
March 9, 1972
coach either of Monroe's teams. "I
let them run their own teams.
Nelson (Cupello) and Craig
(Reynolds) are the Captains and
they run things pretty well. All I do
over there is watch," commented
Mancarella.
Mancarella will follow up the
Winter program with some sort of
Spring Soccer activity. "We have
several possibilities at the
moment," he added. One such
program would be an intramural
program, if "enough people were
interested". Another option is a
Spring tryout program. Players
would work out twice a week and
compete in games against
themselves or in scrimmages
against area colleges. U of R and
Brockport State have already expressed interest in this idea.
No matter what program goes
into effect, soccer will be a lively
part of the MCC athletic scene in
Winter, Spring and in the Fall.
Incidentally, if you are a soccer
fan, the Winter games at UR are
open to the public. Games are held
each Tuesday and Thursday beginning at 7 P.M. No admission is
charged.
