Monroe DOCTRINE "Respect All, Fear None" Volume 10 Issue Seventeen March 9, 1972 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. Dr. Good LeRoy V. Good, Pres. Page Two March 9, 1972 Monroe 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. Corinne Atias 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.

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!

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. VOTE TODAY vwwwwwww.

FOR INFORMATION WRITE TO: COLLEGE PROFICIENCY EXAMINATION PROGRAM ROOM 1924 NEW YORK STATE EDUCATION DEPARTMENT ALBANY, NEW YORK 12210 !3i RED TAPE by Rich Mallory 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. MCC Students 2 0 % — Present I.D. House of Better Living Health Food Restaurant Located at 11 Gibbs St. Vegetarian Gourmets MONROE DOCTRINE Page Four 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.

March 9, 1972 Page Five 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.

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. By June Felice Page Six March 9, 1972 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 emergency fund. All students are invited. 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 registering for a Spring Semester here. In February we had the largest 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 Voters" to be shown on college campuses throughout the country.

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.

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.

MONROE DOCTRINE Page Eight 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.

N V I4S3 Austin Snead hit for 15 points and Murphy and Fryer each added 10 yet all three shot under 30%. MCC eoach Shapiro offered no excuses after the disappointing loss. The dejected Shapiro simply said, "It was our worst shooting night of the year. Any respectable shooting percentage and we would have been in the ball game." Monroe, thus finishes with a 16-8 overall record including an 11-0 mark as NYSJCAA league champs. The team, small by most standards, hustled and fought its way through the whole season. The "Big Game" however, seemed to elude them.

They deserved better. 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.
