Q-2.-1'-... 4 X 1 X AFT vs. New jersey Are you going to graduate on time? For months, seniors at the 8 state colleges in New Jersey have been asked that question. No one seemed to answer. A strike was set for Monday, Feb. 4, by the AFT and called at midnight. About 15 minutes later, GSC heard that it had been postponed one week until Feb. 11. A meeting in Tohill Auditorium on Feb. 4 revealed that they did indeed make great strides with the state after many long and frustrating hours of work. Dr. Rose Glass- berg, president of AFT Local 2373 and Albert Taylor, chief negotiator for the local, pre- sented a list and explanations on what was acceptable to both sides. They also presented some remaining issues yet to be negotiated. AFT meeting pictures, page 20.

ERGY CRISIS Do you regret that eight cyclinder gas hog that you sunk all of your hard-earned dollars into? ls it getting harder and harder to even find a gas station open to fill that tank? Do you shiver at night under icy covers in a 68 apartment or do you sneak out and turn up the thermostat and pray for heat? Sound like you? Welcome! You're a victim of the Energy Crisis. The crisis seemed to start back when the Arabs launched an embargo on oil shipments to the U.S. lNasty, nasty Arabsj. This explana- tion seemed sufficient until leaks from both press and oil companies reported that U.S. oil storage tanks were full, while the number of full oil tankards anchored off the eastern coast had increased. According to newsman Howard K. Smith, the embargo was leaking like a sieve. William E. Simon, head of the Federal Energy Office, said We fthe U.S.l have been on a collision course in energy requirements and demands for many years. ln 1970 pro- duction peaked . . . but energy needs will double between 1973 and 1990. This year Americans suffered not only gas and heat shortages, but a dark Christmas. The use of outside lights was discouraged by the Nixon Administration and a majority of citi- zens cooperated. Other energy sources are being looked into according to Federal Energy officials. Some of these are new ones like solar and nuclear energy as well as the revived interest in the use of coal, which only goes to show there's no fuel like and old fuel. T XTA
