each parental chromosome (with alleles in question) would have to carry the dominant and recessive alleles for anerytherism and albinism (or vice versa) for your claim to be true. But, there is also crossing over which could possibly give rise to the Snow. If only the dominant or recessive alleles for these traits were on the maternal and paternal chromosomes of the parents, then it would actually increase the chance at Snow (actually, only Snow and 66% Possible Double Hets would result without cross over).

This was all done at the top of my head, so I hope there are not too many mistakes. Again, the aforementioned possibilities are only true IF these genes were linked.
