Dormitory rates increase againBrues named to UN groupDormitory room and boardrates will be increased nextyear, announced AssistantDean of Students James E.Newman recently. Room rates in(lie “conventional dormitories’’ willgo up $15 per quarter for every¬one, and rates in the apartmentdorms will rise $10 per month. Thecost of board will go up $10 perquarter in dormitories where thereare board contracts.According to Newman, the in¬crease is recessary because “thedorms are just aot breaking even.”“There is a limit to the amount(hat can be put in for subsidy,” hecontinued.This is the second year in a rowthat rates have increased. New¬man stated that the cost probablywon’t go up again next year.Last year, Pierce Tower showeda deficit of $49,851.76; Burton Jud-son showed a deficit of $16,967.29,and New Dorm showed a net in¬come of $12,552. The total deficitof all tiie residence halls and com¬mons was $67,658.92.According to Weston L. Krog-man, busines manager for the Uni¬versity in charge of campus opera¬ tions, expenses have gone up thisyear. He attributed this in part tothe cash-cafeteria meal systemwhich replaced bhe oontract systemin New Dona and Pierce and inpart to the loss in summer incomefrom New Dorm which will resultfrom the opening of the new Centerfor Continuing Education. NewDorm used to take in money fromnumerous summer conferencesheld there.Contracts at PierceAs a result of the money lostbecause of the cash cafeteria sys¬tem at Pierce, compulsory mealcontracts will be reinstitued nextyear.The current rates for “conven¬tional dormitories’’ are as follows:Pierce Tower, $130.50, for doubles,$140.50 for singles; men in NewDorm $130 for doubles, $140 forsingles; “I really don’t know whythere is a 50c difference betweenthe cost for men at New Dorm andat Pierce,” stated Newman); wom¬en at New Dorm $125 for doubles,$135 for singles; (men get maidservice once a week, accounting forthe difference between men’s andwomen’s rates); Burton-Judson, $140.50 for singles, Snell-Hitchcockrates range from $120.50 to $135.50for singles, $105.50 to $130.50 fordoubles.Rates in the other dorms are asfollows: $57.50 per month for adouble in Blackstone, $70 for asingle; $49.50 per month for asingle in Laughlin hall. Rates rangefrom $43 to $64 a month in 5400Greenwood; $50 per month fordoubles at 5518 Ellis, $75 forsingles.Board rates are currently $175 hiBurton-Judson including breakfast;$163 without breakfast.

They expected aspeech. After being mobbed byphotographers. Fanfani’s only com¬ment was “Basta” — enough.At a reception held for the Ital¬ian premier, Beadle said that the University hoped to construct anappropriate memorial to Fermiwhich would be ready for the 25thanniversary of the atomic age.Fanfani replied that the Italiangovernment was prepared to com¬mission a major work of sculptureby a leading Italian artist for theStagg field memorial honoring En¬rico Fermi. It is hoped that thesculpture will be ready in 1964.In addition, Fanfani suggestedthat he would seek the approvalof the Italian Parliament to parti¬cipate in the financing and con¬struction of two scientific researchcenters. One would be built at UC,the other at a major university inItaly.UP meets, condemns POLITThe University Party at its should be offered a complete board qualified athlete.

The new rates,especially those of the apartmentdormitories, are outrageous to saythe least.Three and one-half room apart¬ments at 5400 Greenwood will nowrent for S140 a month; two roomapartments, for about $100 amonth. Two-room apartments atBlackstone Hall will rent for about$130 a month. These prices arepractically double those of apart¬ments which are two and threetimes as large and equally closeto campus.Further, when the Universitylakes over commercial buildings,like 5400 Greenwood or BlackstoneHall, and converts them into stu¬dent housing, the University is notrequired to pay taxes on the resi¬dences, as was the former owner.What we cannot understand, then,is how. with the advantage of notaxation, the University can jus¬tify such gigantic price increasesas it has effected in these apart¬ment dormitories. At 5400 Green¬wood, for example, a three andone half room apartment whichwill now rent for $140 a month,rented at $80 a month under tax-paying commercial management.It would seem that gross in¬efficiency on the part of the Uni¬versity is responsible for thesemammoth price increases, andthat the students who happen towant the privacy, increased loom,and cooking facilities of apart¬ment-dormitories are suffering asa result.ClassifiedsROOMS.

UP on Stagg scholarshipTO THE EDITOR:Next week the student body willhave the opportunity to make itsopinion known to the Universityadministration. How much the re¬sults of the Stagg scholarship re¬ferendum will affect the admin¬istration of the award is not known.However, this is far from theonly unknown quantity in the Staggdiscussions.Guided only by prejudices, ig¬norance, hearsay, and the Maroon,some UC students have vigorouslycondemned the administration’s“talent hunts,” “athletic awardsdinners,” and “plot to return UCto the Big Ten.” Last week, Uni¬versity Party sponsored a meetingat which Dean Wick and CharlesO'Connell informed students thatthe Stagg scholarship was neitheran evil plot nor a disgrace to edu¬cation at UC (in which they alsobelieve).We take the administration attheir word when they tell us thata Stagg scholar will be at leastthe intellectual equal of his fellow students, and will not be obligatedto participate in athletics. (Unlikegenuine athletic scholarships, if hebreaks his arm, his grant will notbe withdrawn.) We applaud Mr.O’Connell’sefforts to maintain thescholarship entirely on a needbasis, talking the alumni downfrom an extravagant carte blanche$3,000 award to two tuition grants.Certainly the administrationshould continue its efforts to helpevery student according to hisneed. Students often complain overthe size of scholarships, but thereis only a limited amount of moneyavailable. Do these students wishto reject $3,000 a year because itwill bring to the campus two stu¬dents who have been interested inathletic activity?

In fact, withineach of the four sections there waslittle noticeable change at all, thew’ork seeming almost eneirely sta¬tic. With the exception of the sec¬ond movement, which created afeeling of intense loneliness (al¬though the music itself was not in¬tense), the entire work seemed mo¬tionless and emotionless, existingwithout reason.Perhaps this was because the eartrained on the music of Mozart,Wagner, Scriabin, and Bartok wasunable to follow the complexity ofthe contrapuntal and rhythmicalelements of the score, thus missingthe essence of the music. Further¬more, the acoustics in Mandel Hallwere definitely detrimental to theperformances. Only further hear¬ings should, of course, be en¬couraged.The concert opned with theFantasy, Intermezzo, and Varia¬tions for Piano by John Perkins,instructor in music. This was a farmore rewarding experience. Com¬plex as these works may be froma technical viewpoint, they con¬tained a great deal on other than a purely mechanical level. Filledwith moments of an almost Debus-sian quality, some of great beauty,the music seemed as alive as theBlackwood did static. It leaped,took unexpected turns, flew off andreappeared again. The listener waskept fascinated until the conclu¬sion, which was too soon (mostgood music, if you’ll notice, endsbefore you want it to.)Between the Perkins and theBlackwood were two works Jorunaccompanied flute, the Sequenzaby Luciano Berio and the Monody,Op. 43, by Perle. The best onecould say about the former wasthat if was not as dull as it couldhave been, but was really littlemore than a collection of stuntsseemingly without a definite goalor purpose. Since the work is basedpartially on the whim of the per¬former, it will never be heard quitethe same way again; thus thecritic is, at least on this work, satefrom the scorn of future genera¬tions. The Perle was shorter, lesstense, and no more interesting.After the second half of the con¬cert, however, nearly all that hadgone before seemed superfluous.For forty-five minutes, Blackwoodstormed his way through the Sec¬ond Piano Sonata of Charles Ives,the most difficult works of pianoliterature and an undeniable mas¬ter work.Almost everything happens inthis work. Towering passages ofdissonances are strung together inLisztian fashion, interspersed withsimple folk tunes and dances; awood block is used to depress alarge number of keys simultane¬ously; a passage is played with anincreasingly furious slapping ofhands and ending in a tumultuouspounding of fists; and then, thesimple, exquisitely beautiful clos¬ing, which employs a few notesfrom a distant flute.Yet from the most dramatic andviolent passages to the sectionswhich literally had the audience inhysterics (for Ives is one of thoserare composers with a sense ofhumor), to moments of quiet phil¬osophical meditation, everythingseems to fit; each part makes acontribution to a clear whole.Blackwood’s performance wasliterally beyond belief, it was oneof the most exciting piano perform¬ances that this critic has everheard. And he played it irommemory, too.PETE RAB1NOW1TZIraqi students strike govtThe National Union of Iraqi Students (NUTS), joinedby teachers’ organizations and the national women’s organi¬zation, has called an all-out student strike against the Kassemgovernment. * "NUIS last week declared a sit-down and hunger strike in the ad¬ministration building of the na¬tional university in Baghdad. Thegovernment retaliated by arrestinghundreds of student in a militaryattack on the university. Numerousinjuries were reported.Since the strike began, the lead¬ers of many student, teachers, andpatriotic organizations have beenjailed, and many other teachershave been transferred to otherparts of the country.NUIS says that if expects at least40,000 of the students at the 70,000-enrollment national university toboycott the mid-term examinationsnext week, thus declaring their op¬position to the dictatorship.NUIS charges that the Kassemgovernment has kidnapped manystudents from their homes andforcibly taken many from theirclassrooms to the jails. NUIS also charges that the government hasgone so far as to arrest the parentsand relatives of student leaders.In a curious development, theCommunist-leaning General Unionof Students of the Iraqi Republic(GUSIR) has called for student co¬operation with the government andan end to the strikes. NUIS hascharged that GUSIR has betrayedthe student and popular elementsof the nation and is playing intothe hands of the dictatorship. \UT presents 'Dwarves1University Theatre will resumeits reading-discussion hours tonightwith a reading of Harold Pinter'splay, “The Dwarves.”The program will begin at 7:30p.m. in the Reynolds Club SouthLounge.

Green, student chair¬man of the symposium committee,said that interest in mental healthfacilities was stirred when stu¬dents recently visited mental insti¬ tutions. They were impressed bythe efforts of the personnel to pro¬vide the best service possible tothe patients despite over-crowdedconditions and the insufficientnumber of psychiatrists and otherworkers. TTiey also learned of com¬munity reluctance to co-operatewith the hospitals, which severelyimpeded the patients’ opportunityto return to normal life. “In short,’*said Green, “they learned thatthese inadequacies prolonged . . .mental illness.’’Intramural scoreboardUndaunted by the belowzero weather, intramural bas¬ketball went on as usual lastnight.

UC gets Carnegie grantThe University of Chicagois one of 11 major Midwest¬ern universities which will re¬ceive aid from a new $100,000Carnegie Corporation grant de¬signed to promote voluntary aca¬demic co-operation.The formal recipient of theaward is the Committee on Insti¬tutional Co-operation (CIC) whichwas founded by a similar five-yeargrant in 1958. Its program is aimedat strengthening academic cur¬ricula within the II universitiesthrough mutual assistance and co¬operation.The presidents of the universities,who call themselves the Council ofTen, and The University of Chi¬cago, have held conferences to dis¬cuss and outline CIC’s program. Todale, the accomplishments of thisgroup have been limited to ex¬changes of information and ideasabout curricula and finances.Among CIC’s anticipated projectsis a co-operative Far Eastern Lan¬guage Teaching and Research In¬stitute scheduled for the summerof 1963 at the University of Michi¬gan. Another facet of foreign lan¬guage study explored by the coun¬cil is the expansion of study, within the member universities, «f the 26“most critical languages.**In bhe fields of the geological sci¬ences, CIC plans include a co-ordi¬nated field camp for training fieldgeologists and a co-operaitive midwest laboratory foe analyzingminerals and rocks.The spirit of co-operation be¬tween CIC member universities isobserved in their joint planning for“broad graduate training" in bio-climatology and for assistance bycolleges of pharmacy to collegesthat do not have graduate pro¬grams in pharmacy. Other fieldsexpected to be included wibhui theCIC scope of planning are landscape. medicine, architecture,nursing, oceanography, and aluir.ruaffairs.Dr. Frederic W. Heimberger,chairman of the CIC, stated thatthe broad range of activities plan¬ned by the council is evidence ofthe fact that “the CIC is now pastthe experimental stage.” He saidthe CIC had fnifilled a challengein that “the experiment was uniquein American higher education . . .our universities are among thelargest and most comprehensive inthe nation, and their size seemedalmost to defy co-operation.”A careerfor In our experience, superior individuals from every graduate andundergraduate educational discipline find successful careersin a major agency such as the Thompson Company.
