Syracuse and Buffalo to kick off at same time Not more than. 12,000 to 15,000 fans will pass through the gates of cavernous Rich Stadium at 1:30 p.m. tomorrow when the Syracuse University (SU) football team sinks its cleats into Buffalo soil, Buffalo Bills ticket manager Jim Cipriano said Wednesday. country with a domcjl stadium built primarily for its use. The stadium is being constructed with the aid of a $15.3 million subsidy from the State of New York. Last November, students at this University reacted with a tiger to Governor Hugh L. Carey’s defense of the stadium funding, and his comment that UB students should not resent Syracuse for it because, “Someday, you might find a Syracuse coed to msucry.\ UB Athletic officials are incensed over Syracuse’s plans to play both tomorrbw’s game and an October 27 match in Buffalo on UB home dates. UB Men’s Athletic Director Ed Muto wrote his Syracuse counterpart on -May 21, 1979, noting, “It would seem that in investigating other facilities for your 1979 games, you would have had some regard for fellow NCAA schools and their programs.” But Syracuse Director of Men’s Athletics Jake Crouthamel responded three days later: “The whole idea of Syracuse University not acting in good faith is a bunch of baloney.” Only 6200 tickets—most of them S10 seats between the 40 yard lines—had been sold at press time Wednesday, but Cipriano estimated that a good at-the-gate response could lift the total above 10,000. UB Director of Sports Information Larry Steele said the number was “not very impressive” for the 80,000 seat arena but that the SU game could nevertheless siphon off some fans who might normally attend the concurrent match between Waynesburg State College and the UB Bulls. The Bulls are playing at Rotary Field tomorrow, also at 1:30. • Syracuse, whose quarterback Bill Hurley comes from Depew, has approximately 10 Buffalonians on its 80 man roster, according to Steele, nd the family and friends of those players will almost certainly attend the SU game. Since then, according to Steele, there has been virtually no contact between the two schools over the conflict. “They just don’t give a damn,” he said. Someday Syracuse will be playing at Rich Stadium tomorrow while their new domed stadium is under construction. When it is completed sometime before next season, Syracuse—a private school—will become the first college in ’ the Syracuse will play three other “home” games at sites other than Rich Stadium, including two at Giants’ Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey. —Mark Meltzer Committee formed Wanted: a permanent Graduate School dean A search committee is currently being organized to find a permanent Dean for this University’s Graduate School.
