MODERN PHARMACY

Michael Krugman

Since the primary cause of emphysema is unknown, it's not possible to prevent

it in an absolute sense. However, more and more doctors are be­coming convinced there are at least four specific things you can do to help stop emphysema before it starts. First, stop c(ga­rette smoking. or if you don't smoke now, don't start. Second, do whatever you can to avoid polluted air. Third. don't allow colds or other respiratory infec­tion to linger for weeks on end­see your doctor for such ail­ments. And fourth, it may be worthwhile toget as much vigor­ous exercise as possible. One of the most hopeful pieces of re­search now being done on em­physema is the attempt to dis­cover its genetic code.

BETHLEHEM

Police stories: meanest thief and an honest man Two items on the Bethlehem

police blotter last week would alternately sicken and gladden community-minded residents.

Police are looking for a red pickUp truck driven by the meanest thief of 1978. Bethle­hem detectives have broadcast descriptions of the vehicle and the driver. Here's the story:

Two young visitors from Milan, Italy, on a hitchhiking tour of the U niled States. were on Rt. 9W near Ravena at 4 a.m. Friday when a pelting rainstorm drove them to seek shelter under a bridge. Here they were offered a ride by a

h driving a pickup truck. offered him $5 for gas for

a ride to Albany. He drove to the Petrol station in Glenmont and the passengers paid the attendant.

A mile down the road they stopped for a snack at the

y

(

Glenmont diner. The foreign visitors entered the diner while the driver waited in the truck. Suddenly he drove off with the visitors' three bags and knap­sach in the truck.

Police said the bag of Stefano Cagliari, 21, contained his passport, a plane ticket to Zurich, Switzerland, clothing. a flute. a clarinet and a sleeping bag, all of which he estimated as worth $465. Giovanni Adami, 20, who lost his clari­net, clothing and a sleeping bag. valued the contents at $620.

Bethlehem police took the travelers to headquarters and turned them over to the Inter­national Center in Albany to arrange for transportation to continue their trip to Boston.

In an unrelated incident in another section of town, a Selkirk woman. shopping at

Hamagrael fourth graders in Mrs. Teddy Archer's class line up to buy Applefest goodies baked by Mr. Copeland's fifth grade, who had a day of picking at Indian Ladder Farm, On the cover: Lynn Kaplan, left, Tania Stasiuk and Maura Schnurr wore their Applefest outfits for the event.

Delaware Plaza. loaded several bags of groceries into the trunk of her car and drove home. When she arrived. she realized she had left her pocketbook, containing her wallet, in the folding seat of the shopping cart in the parking lot. She quickly drove back to the Plaza but the cart was empty.

At Bethlehem police head­quarters she reported the wallet contained $20 in cash. the pocketbook another $260 in cash in an envelope. a diamond ring valued at $300, and per­sonal items for a total value of $580.

A day later she called police to report that an Albany man had returned the pocketbook the following day with the con­tents intact.

NIMo warning Shooting power line insula­

tors is a criminal act that can spell deep trouble for the offen­der and cause serious disrup­tions in electric service to entire communities. This warning came from Niagara Mohawk Power Corp. officials as the fall hunting season got underway in upstate New York. "Making targets of power line insulators is one of the most senseless. irresponsible and potentially lethal actions that a shooter can take," a company spokesman said. "A person places himself in grave danger of electrocution if the line should come down. and it causes immeasurable damage and cost through need­less interruption of electrjc ser­vice. Power to hospitals, schools. homes. businesses and vital traffic signals can be knocked out by such vandal­ism."

BETHLEHEM

Town budget inches higher

The cost of running Bethle­hem's town government in 1979 will be about 12.3 percent higher than this year. accor­ding to the tentative budget now in the hands of the town board.

Appropriations requests from department heads and other administrative officials are included in a tentative budget of $2,711,897, ajump of some $297,000 over the current year. Supervisor Tom Corrigan and Comptroller Martin Smith declined to translate these figures into a tax increase, but a rough calculation would indi­cate a rise in the town tax, somewhere between $1.05 and $1.30 per $1.000 valuation.

These figures could change, and probably will, before the governmental arithmetic is pre­sented to the voters at the annual budget hearing on Nov. 9. Bethlehem taxpayers cur­rently pay $25.54 per thousand for the general town and highway tax. Next year's bite, however, will be augmented by the Albany County legislature, which will also be dipping into local wallets. A modest rise of approximately 1.3 percent in Bethlehem's total assessed val­uation is countered by higher costs in town services.

A new item this time is an allocation of $60,000 toward the cost of a townwide property re-evaluation as a vital step toward complying with 'ihe state requirement for assess­ments based on full market value by 1981. A portion of the cost of the re-evaluation will come back to the town via state funding.

NEW SCOTLAND

Village seeks a tax break

New Scotland town board members are grappling with a sensitive issue: should Voor­heesville village residents who also are taxpayers to the town of New Scotland be excused from sharing in certain town highway costs?

Shortly before they made public the 1979 tentative town budget last week, board mem­bers received a request from the Voorheesville village board for tax relief from Items 2 and 4 in the town highway budget. namely, appropriations for bridge repair work and for snow removal. respectively. The portion of the bridge bud­get 10 be raised by local taxes in 1979 totals $2.400, the snow removal item $72,750,

The village request came to light at the town board's regular monthly meeting last Wednesday, at which a tenta­tive town budget of$321.706.28 was presented. The tentative budget. which is a first draft subject to modifications before being finalized, calls for a boost of $2.01 per $1.000 assessed valuation from the current for­mula.

But the Voorheesville re­quest could change that. if granted. Supervisor Steve Wal­lace said the increase would jump to $4.88 for residents living outside the village if the board adopts the relief pro­posal.

There was no indication what action, if any, the board would take on the village request. Wallace scheduled a morning work session on the

budget for Oct. 16 at 9 a,m" and indicated "there'll be one or two more after that before we're through." The annual public hearing on the budget will probably be held as usual sometime during the first week of November, he said,

If the tentative budget sur­vives the work sessions rela­tively intact, it would carry the first town tax increase in New Scotland in several years. A year ago the budget increase over the previous year was $7.750. this year the jump is $23.233. In 1978. however. the tax rate dropped 13 cents per thousand. due to an increase of $311.000 in the town's total assessed valuation. This year the combination of a townwide evaluation increase of only $139.683 and sharply rising costs has dashed any hope of holding the line.

Town hall sources blame the rise on spiraling inflation. par­ticularly in insurance rates. Town employees will get no sal­ary raises in the new budget.

Two members of the Bethle­hem .planning board and the board's fulltime secretary will attend one day of a two-day New York Planning Federation seminar at Monticello next week. Chairman William R. Weber. board member Marcia Nelson and secretary Alice Cir­illo will attend the session on Oct. 16.

SLINGERLANDS

Residents prefer park to be green

A large village green area with as much of the land as possible "untouched" seems to be the most popular idea for the proposed Slingerlands town park. About 50 residents came to a meeting of the Slingerlands Homeowners Assn. to see a slide presentation on several possible park layouts and to voice their own suggestions for the kind of park Slingerlands residents want.

Sylvester Bower, president of the association, stressed that popular opinion would deter­mine what was done with the 4.14-acre vacant parcel of land fronting on New Scotland Rd. and Bridge St. "It (the park) will be what you want it to be," Bower emphasized, before a slide show by Ed Kleinke, con­sultant for the town planning board.

Kleinke showed various lay­outs of possible set-ups of a "walking-to park and not a driving-to park" that would attract youngsters of all ages as well as grownups. He suggested a park with a play area forchil· dren. several tennis courts and a large area for jogging or playing football or baseball.

Many of the residents were skeptical of Kleinke's tailored proposals. Parking was one of the major concerns, as one man observed, "In this day and age

you people are going to drive." Others preferred a mainly level stretch of land, a village green concept with trees and a large flat field for unsupervised acti­vities.

Supervisor Tom Corrigan and Mrs. Ruth Bickel, a mem­ber of the town board, agreed the consensus at the meeting favored the village green pro­posals, with a small playground area for children. Corrigan said drainage pipes would be laid before the winter sets in, and that grading of the area would be completed in early spring preparatory for seeding.

Preparing for Halloween

Police officers assigned to the Bethlehem Police Youth Bureau will visit St. Thomas School and all public ele· mentary schools in the Bethle­hem Central district the week of Oct. 24-31 to present a special Halloween safety pro­gram. Printed panmplets on Halloween safety and other subjects are available to children and parents at the police youth bureau, 118 Adams St., second floor.

Lawns vandalized Bethlehem police are track­

ing a vehicle and driver sus­pected of causing extensive damage to lawns and gardens at the Farm Family Insurance Co. building and the Glenmont elementary school grounds the night of Sept. 29.

Cass Hill gets road treatment

The residents of the 14 houses strung along Cass Hill Rd., Clarksville, have a new lease on life. Road crews from New Scotland's town highway department have been doing some ditching work for the past two weeks in response to citizen complaints that their road has been neglected.

Presence of the trucks and equipment on Cass Hill last week resulted in the town board holding the first regular monthly meeting in six months without a delegation of Cass Hill residents in the audience.

Town highway superinten· dent Peter Van Zetten said his crews had cleaned out the ditches on the lower portion and on the steepest part of the hill. "We're scraping the road with the grader, we're going to rip up the pavement, roll it and put oil on it," he said.

Although there will be no new blacktop this year, there were indications at town hall that Cass Hill Rd. would be on the 1979 repaving schedule. Van Zetten declined to make a commitment, but indicated the "chances are good." New Scot­land has been budgeting repav­ing of approximately six miles of town roads per year in the first two years of a $500,000 five·year road program, and is expected to allocated another $100.000 next year.

Town board members didn't get away from the October meeting last week without a highway complaint, however. John Lyons, a homeowner on

Spore Rd., voiced a complamt about icing conditions and drainage problems on his road. "It's been in Pete's (Van Zetten) lap for two years and nothing gets done," he said.

Two days later the Altamont Enterprise carried a letter·to· the·editor praising Van Zet· ten's performance as superin· tendent. It was signed by Bill Chattin of Clarksville.

School pickup denied by board

When Mrs. Stephen Fryer registered her daughter. Bren­da, for kindergarten class at the Clarksville School, she came away with the understanding that her child could ride the school bus both ways, like all the other children.

But the Bethlehem school board has declined to'pick up Brenda in the afternoon at her grandmother's house, where she stays while her' parents work at daytime jobs. Mrs. Fryer says she may be forced to appeal to state Commissioner of Education Gordon Ambach.

Brenda's grandmother, Mrs. Mary Myers, lives on Upper Flat Rock Rd. The Fryers live on Bennett Hill Rd. Both are in rural sections of the Clarksville area near the outer reaches of the Bethlehem Central school district.

"They (the school board) told me it would be a five-mile difference to pick her up at her grandmother's," says Mrs. Fryer. "I don't know why they're hassling me. Both my husband and I work and have to go home to drop her off. The other day no one was around to take her to school. so my sister had to ride her over on a bike. I'm not through with them yet."

Mrs. Fryer's request for special service was rejected by the Bethlehem board of educa­tion in a 6-1 decision last week. Board members were reluctant to establish a precedent against school policy.

Lawrence A. Zinn, superin~ tendent of schools, said that of about 55 requests for special transportation, 10 children have been granted two-way transportation on pre~estab­lished bus routes and five, as in Brenda's case, were granted one-way transportation. Zinn says about 40 requests were denied because "sitters" wert not on pre-established routes. thus requiring rerouting.

A main concern of the school board was to "maintain a situation that we have now where buses are dependable,"

says Zinno "My worry is that one request leads to another."

Robert R. Zick, a board member, echoed Zinn's con~ cern, saying, "We're not run­ning a taxi service. This accep~ tance would open a Pandora's box."

School board member Sheila Fuller, who cast the only dissenting vote, said that as a Clarksville resident and a kin~ dergartener. Brenda deserved a bus ride. "It's an unfortunate situation. It's a little ridiculous because if another kindergar~ tener lived on the route it would be no problem. I think we should go up and get her."

Jailed In larceny

Charles A. Shufelt, 17, Dela­ware Tpk., Clarksville, was remanded to Albany County jail last week pending a court appearance on a charge of grand larceny, second degree. Bethlehem police arrested Shu­felt Thursday on a bench warrant issued by Justice Roger Fritts following an investiga­tion by Officer Paul Roberts into the theft of a 1977 Yamaha motorcycle from Bethlehem Terrace apartments last July 25. Richard Blake, owner of the bike, valued the machine at $1,500.

Police snare 2 in speed chase

Two teenage fugitives are back in a Rensselaerville reha­bilitation facility this week fol­lowing a brief escape in a stolen van and a half-mile high-speed police pursuit in Delmar.

Officer Paul F. Roberts spotted the van at 10:30 p.m. last Thursday as it sped east on Delaware Ave. near the Beth­lehem town hall. He gave chase in a Bethlehem patrol car as the van sped through a red light at Four Corners. narrowly mis­sing two cars. In front of Gochee's garage the van swerved to the right. grazed a power pole and halted as the passenger fled on foot.

Roberts subdued the driver after a brief struggle while onlookers searched nearby streets and picked up the second youth. The .driver. 15, and his companion. 14. both from New York City. were taken to police headquarters and turned over to David Kranz of Delmar. director of Camp Cass. Rensselaerville. The vehicle was returned to (he camp. The facility is operated by the New York State Division for Youth.

got married while they were working in a Boston resaturant called Dante's. They kept think­ing of the world beyond restau­rant tables, the kitchen and the city's busy streets, so they saved their money for a trip to Cal­ifornia.

Last Sept. 14 they set out for the West Coast with a horse, a mule. a two-wheeled cart mounted on a sulky frame. loaded with camping gear, and high hopes for adventure. Last week the entourage passed through Bethlehem and New Scotland. with an overnight stop in a field in Normansville beneath the Delaware Ave. viaduct.-

"We're doing the whole thing for fun and kicks." they told an inquiring resident Wednesday night as they moved leisurely down the historic yellow-brick pavement winding downhill to the Normanskill gorge. "We used to work for horse trainers. so we both know animals."

A 14-year-old Boy Scout, Ricky Kittrick, found them accommodations for camping. Ricky who lives on Rockefeller Rd .. Normansville. went up to get milk and found the travelers stopped near the Tastee Freeze.

"We got talking and they were looking for a place to camp that had water and grass. I told them about the creek," Ricky said. He suggested a field owned by Miss Isabel John­ston. his next-door neighbor.

who gave permIssIon for an overnight stay. Ricky. a ninth grader at Bethlehem Central High School. is a first-class scout with Troop 58.

"We didn't know much about camping, and it was hard at first, but things are a lot smoother now," Rocco said.

The sulky had a broken wheel when they arrived in Delmar. but Ray Patterson at the bike shop in Delmar fixed them up with a new wheel.

Thursday morning was damp and there was a chill in the air when they headed out Dela­ware Tpk. for Clarksville and the hill towns to the west. They'd been making five to 20 milesa day on U.S. Rt. 20 from Boston, but leaving Delmarthe road is uphill and narrow. The highway surface is hard on the horse's feet, Rocco said. dis­playing a piece of cm-up tire in place of a horseshoe.

They figure on making Cal­ifornia in about six months. The nights are colder now. but their spirits are unOagging ... although ...

Schools placing accent on nature

Pupils in the Elsmere and Glenmont grade schools will learn first·hand about autumn and its changing colors as they venture on special nature trails guided by trained parent volun­teers.

The Elsmere School Com­munity Organization (ESCO) has announced that Oct. 11-19 have been declared "Nature Trail Days" for Elsmere School students.

Walks on the school's own nature trail will be led by par­ent volunteers who will use "Real Estate Worries of the Pioneers" as their theme. The students will be asked to look at the land as the pioneers did to find out what can be obtained in their own backyard. Edible plants will be pointed out and

experimented with through a series of recipes. Trees and shrubs will be examined to find out how each wood was used for different implements by early settlers.

The Elsmere nature trail was developed over the past several years on the school grounds. This year. the annual c1ean·up was held on Sept. 23 with 20 adults and 17 children helping to remove the debris of summer from the pathways.

The Glenmont school, which is developing plans for its own school·year nature trail. will hold nature classrooms Oct. 18-20 at the Five Rivers Envi­ronmental Conservation Cen· ter, Game Farm Rd., Delmar. Throughout the five half-mile trails the children will examine animals, trees and wildflowers, taking care to "walk, watch, look and listen" to what nature has to offer.

NEW SCOTLAND

Town puts arm on game farm

The New Scotland town board has drawn the line on picking up trash and refuse from the Five Rivers Environ­mental Center on the weekly collection day.

In response to taxpayers' complaints that 14 to 2S bags of trash and garbage from the center are set out on the road­side for the town compactor on the average week. the board last week voted unanimously to cut off the service. The final pickup will be made this week (Friday) at the state-owned facility on Game Farm Rd .

Supervisor Steve Wallace said' the board would draft a letter to the State Dept. of Environmental Conservation. which operates the Five Rivers facility, offering to resume the service on a contract basis.

The town has a $3.000 con­tract with the state to permit trash and garbage from the John Boyd Thacher state park to be dumped in the New Scotland landfill on Upper Flat Rock Rd .. but the town does not make the pickups at the park.

SOCCER

Every game vital for Be booters

With contenders for the Suburban Council soccer championship bunched like Panama bananas. every game is critical for Bethlehem Cen­tral's slick-passing team.

Eagle thinclads are looking up

After several seasons In obscurity, Bethlehem Central's cross country teams are making waves. The largest turnout in the school's history greeted Coach John Nyilis' first call at the start. of the season, 23 boys and eight girls, and they're having their best season in a long time despite a rash of InJunes.

Bethlehem's girls' team won the Gloversville Invitational with 53 points, upsetting Co­lumbia High's Sectional champions who had 77. Leslie Warren. one of the state's outstanding scholastic runners, won the trophy, Judy Parker came in third and Trisha Mor­ris sixth.

"There are no patsies in this league," observed Coach Dale Walts, crossing his fingers every time his booters take the field. Last week. after a com­parative breeze with Scotia. the Eagles were pressed to take Shaker by one goal, a team they had calcimined. 5-0, earlier. Meanwhile front-running Co­lonie was held to a tie, Nis­kayuna is getting better each time, and four other teams are muscling each other around.

This week the Eagles were facing a rugged test at Guild­erland Tuesday, play at home today (Thursday) against dan­gerous Niskayuna. and enter­tain Shenendehowa Saturday_ They don't make schedules any tougher than that.

SOCCER

Morale stays up for Be booters

Two more soccer setbacks have failed to dampen the spirit of Voorheesville Central's soc­cet team. according to Coach Dave Cady.

The Blackbirds dropped a 5-2 verdict to Catskill at home and lost Friday, 2-1, to a strong Cairo team. "We snapped out of our slump in that game," Cady remarked. "We played well. Cairo didn't expect us to be that tough, and they had to work to beat us."

Fullback Roger Ellis and halfback Dave Raynsford con­tinue to play steady soccer. Cady also is pleased with the performance of Joe McCarty,a sophomore wing who is emerg­ing as a real comer. "He's fast. and has a good right foot on a cross," the coach said.

Waterford, one of the league's powerhouses, comes to the Helderbergs for a 4 p.m. date Friday. The Blackbirds have two on the road this week at Germantown and Maple Hill. Next week they travel to Averill Park Monday and close out the home season with Heatly Wed· desday.

The Pee Wee Division Vul­tures will host Burnt Hills in the first game at I p.m. The local Pee Wees lost on a rain-soaked field at Brunswick last Sunday. 6-0. with most of the action between the 35-yard lines.

weeks ago. in the lackluster game against a mediocre Burnt Hills team. The Eagles were shoddy on defense and sloppy on offense. but the visitors gave them three touchdowns on fumbles. This week they will have to play football forthe full 48 minutes.

Last week's 28-0 sledge­hammer job on a strong Guild­erland team gave BC one of its finest wins in nearly a decade. .. It was a very satisfying vic­tory." commented Ritchko in a masterpiece of understatement. "They completed only three passes for less than 2S yards. and they're one of the best passing teams in the league. They have a good running game. but we stopped them cold'"

BC put so much pressure on Guilderland the Dutchmen were in the hole all afternoon. Steve Nowak threw for touch­downs in each of the first two periods. a 43-yard scoring play to Jim Giacone and a 9-yard flip to Buddy Nevens in the end zone. Mike DeAngelis carried for the other two. one on a 35-yard excursion up the middle after Nowak had hit Bill Hann­mann for a 25-yard shot.

Ritchko. the archdeacon of hit-em football. praised the

Tim Houck

defense. but tossed the bouquet to his specialty team. "The kids who went down under the kicks. Paul Howell. Tim Houck. David Morrell. did a heck of a job putting pressure on them (Guilderland) with hard tackling and hard hitting. and they forced one fumble .. '

Physically the Eagles came through flying. Karl Danckert. a tough lineman. was in for a few plays to test his ailing knee. and should be ready for She­nendehowa. Adam Herman. a defensive end who plays tackle on the offense. sprained his toe. but no fracture showed in the X-ray and he'll be on the firing line Saturday.

FOOTBALL

Blackbirds prime offensive pumps

Voorheesville's football Blackbirds are putting in a

UDUS week of drills to beef their offensive thrust. A 6-6 at Fonda against an unde-

team last Saturday ,lol,k"d good on paper. but not

great on the field.

This week the Blackbirds get back into the Southern Con­

scuffle with a Friday under the lights at Chat-

m. The home team is 2-0 in he league. "We'll be working

on our offense. trying to get better execution." said Coach Tom Buckley, which is his way of saying the attack could have been smoother last week. "The defense did an excellent job, they were really hitting."

The crusher at Fonda was a 50-yard drive by Voorheesville in the second period climaxed by a 6-yard pass from Greg Hawkins to Craig Gleason in the end zone that was called back for a holding penalty and the drive stalled. Fonda had a 6-0 lead at the half. but the Blackbirds slammed the door on any further mischief and tied it in the third quarter. The payoff was a 6-yard scamper by Hawkins on an option keeper.

Medically the Blackbirds came through the defensive struggle at Fonda in good shape. Commented Buckley: "The only injury was to our ego. We felt we had a good shot at winning. The boys were a little down on the way home. but they'll be ready to go Friday night."

Media Rare An occasional Spotlight commentary on the world of radio, TV and newspapers

by Perry Galt

Innovation locally

An intrepid entrepreneur who gave upa promising career as a university sociology pro­fessor for the dangerous world of business has embarked on his most intrepid venture yet­a women's magazine.

On the newsstands this week is a new slickly-designed pub­lishing face. a striking pure­black cover with sophisticated white graphics forming the logo. "Woman Locally." It·s an ambitious venture created by an aggressive investor with a biblical name, Christos Apostle.

"Can a man publish a wo­men's magazine?" asks the opening promotional press release. If the combination ofa forceful. strong-willed pub­lisher, a carefully planned concept and a youthful staff comes through, the answer is Yes.

But the real answer won't be known for some months. per­haps a year or more. The key is. of course. capital: can an ex­pensive publishing venture stay alive until advertising and sub­scription revenue is built up to the crossover point with pro­duction costs, and how long will that take'?

sive venture. Christos Apostle tells his staff to answer: ··Oh. some crazy creep with a lot of money." The suspicion could be Christos himself. with or without a host of monied angels or magi following a star.

Christos Apostle is 42. came from Yorktown Heights in Westchester to earn a doctor­ate in sociology and taught at SUNYA from 1965 to 1968. His curriculum vitae tabs him as a property developer with interests in Albany, Westches­ter and Minneapolis. The Albany interests inciLide a restaurant. an advertising agency and something called the Knowledgeable Press in Castleton. The Westchester interests involve another women's magazine. and the M'innesota interests real estate and land development.

His associates say he has the quick mind of a business execu­tive. an important resource In

his present realm. Christos is off to an impres­

sive start. The maiden issue is strong on graphics, has pleasing typography for eye appeal. and plenty of material for the targeted audience. Woman Locally is patterned after People magazine. the format short. informative articles, informal black-and-

"This is a springboard," says Annie Schermerhorn. an Apostle disciple who staffs one or his several related enter­prises. Effective Advertising. in Albany. "We want it to help other women by offering expe­riences in an informative, and hopefully, an entertaining way. By having it written primarily by women in the area who are knowledgeable in their fields, we hope to have intimate dia­logues in print that mean some­thing to local people."

The staff is youthful and female. Donna George, a news­pa per veteran not yet 29, is managing editor. Donna, a Delmar product and a graduate of Bethlehem Central, took a month's leave from the Albany Times Union to guide the first issue of Locally to the presses. This week Donna moves to the magazine's staff at 97 Columbia St. full time. She joir.ed the T-U as a feature writer seven years ago after a stint at a fashiona academy in New York City, and most recently has been assigned as a reporter in Southern Rens­selaer County. Now she is liberated from town board meetings in Schodack and environs.

With her are Kristin Sekora. an Albany free-lance writer, at 32 the senior member of the staff; Robin Reich (rhymes with beach), 22, of Suffern, an editorial researcher who has worked with emotionally disabled and handicapped chil­dren, and Barbara Argay, 22, of Troy. who designed the logo and does the layout.

Backing up this quartet is an editorial advisory board, re­cruited by Chris and his entour­age from a wide cross-section of the Capital District. No fewer than 20 women attended the second board session, and the third is scheduled for Oct. 17 at the Brass Kettle Pub on Pine St., Albany, another Apostolic enterprise.

Our precincts have been well represented in these brain­storming sessions. Early rosters have included Sally Clayton of Slingerlands, Cheryl Furbeck of Voorheesville and JoAnn Passariello of Glenmont. The next one may have more of the neighbors: it's our understan­ding anyone can go if they have ideas and suggestions on edito­rial philosophy, distribution, format and anything else related to magazine publishing by and for women.

Notable by its absence in Vol. I, No. I is politics. but that is not expected to last. "Politi­calor controversial issues are part of their (women's) lives," says the press release.

If you like People and are interested in women, you'l enjoy Woman Locally. There is ample room in the Capital Dis­trict for this magazine. Here'sa salute to the courage of the investor-publisher, an orchid to his young staff. and God­speed to Woman Locally.

Police and youth

Editor, The Spotlight: On Sept. 29 an incident

occurred which em barrassed our family and OUT teenage daughter in particular.

The local police saw fit to follow two cars from the BCHS parking lot, via police radio. to McDonalds. A short time later they tailed this group (with head lights off) from the restaurant to our house. In front of our home. they flashed red lights and created quite a scene on our quiet street.

After asking the police officer what this group (and particularly our daughter) had been doing. we were told that some members of this group had made noise when leaving the high school parking lot. The noise had occurred full) one hour earlier but the grout: had not been approached until they pulled into our driveway.

We found it difficult to believe that the police would take up so much of their time and create such a scene unless they suspected a serious problem. A visit to the police station. and our best efforts have produced no better

explanation than the noise outside the high school.

We submit that the Bethle­hem Police have done our family and particularly our daughter a great disservice. Further, we hold with the belief that those individuals commit­ting illegal acts are very quief.

Mr. & Mrs. T J. ezerw Delmar

Commissioner of Public Safety Ralph A. Tipple says he wi//, conduct an investigation o/the incident and will make a per­sona/ report to Mr. and Mrs. Czer",. Ed.

Increase class size

Editor. The Spotlight: I

Several weeks ago, I wrote a letter on class size and quality I of education which appeared in the Spotlight. At the time I' wrote the letter, I was under the: impression that class size was a, bargaining point in contract i discussions with the teachers' union. However, Mr. Bertold Weinberg of the school board was good enough to call and tell me that class size and curriculum were two items that the board of education did not' include in bargaining with the union. They. the board. re­served the right to make all decisions on these two items. I am glad to make the correc-tions.

However, under the circum­stances. I can't understand why the board keeps the class size so low, about 23 per class. The study I mentioned in my last letter stated that class size up to 34 had little or no impact on

The Catholic Church What's it all about?

Information classes will discuss: o the mystery of God in our world

• His revelation to us in the Bible o the presence of the Spirit in the Church

o the celebration of God's life in the Sacraments o our response to the presence of God

cademic achievement. These nd other studies were hardly a ecret, and probably the board nd the administrators knew bout them. A possible expla­ation of the low class size is hat some parents and teachers ut pressure on the board for mall classes and the board ave in to the minority pres­ure.

Last year the board sent out questionnaire asking, in

ssence, if economic conditions ade cutbacks necessary, hich programs should be cut ack. Without getting into the etails, 65 to 71 per cent of the eplies were in favor of increas­ng the average class size by 2-3 tudents per class. In other ords, a majority of those nswering the questionnaire ere in favor of a larger class

ize, in spite of the fact that they id not know that class size etween 25 and 34 had little or o effect on academic achieve­.ent. Yet, in spite of this ajority in favor of increasing

lass size. the board keeps tne arne class size. This brings up a uestion, does the board repre­

'ent all the people or just the o percent who want small class ize?

In regard to economic condi­ions referred to in the ques­ionnaire. we all know the

inflationary pressures inflicted on people on fixed incomes, of which there are many in this district. Merrill Lynch predicts a general depression in early 1979, which would indicate that the school board should start planning now to cut back.

To ease the onerous school tax burden (we have the highest per capita pupil cost in the area), I urge the board of education to plan now to increase the limits on class size to 28 in the 1979-80schoolyear and to 35 in the 1980-81 school year. With quality teaching there should be no learning problems, and the instructional payroll, which is the highest item on the budget, can be reduced, and thus insure tax cuts for these two years.

"Stand still, little lamb, to be shorn" seems to be the attitude of the school board to its tax­payers. Our tax dollars are spent on educators and not education. If you are interested in a sensible approach to school spending, call 785-8546 (an answering service), leave your name and telephone number and ask for the undersigned to call back. The taxes you save will be your own.
