LiWell, ;r«>-fassor at the Chicago TheoloeioalSeminary. “Although the Jewishtexwbooks show no prejurlioe of theland we are here concerned with, itseems to me that . . . they do dis~ck**? a genuine crisis of seif-idea-cXy,” Uttell reported.As for tiie Catholics, studies byjriests and a nun showed “the ma¬terials ratted very high in getter 11references to out-groups, but fellstrikingly in specific references toJews and Protestants.” Jews get“negative references” for rejectionof Christianity, the crucifixion, andthe Pharisees, while Protestants arecited for their doctrinal differenceswtth the Roman Catholics, the Re¬formation. and such areas of mod¬em conflict as Protestant missionary-work in South America.THE PROTESTANTS themselvesdiffer from denomination to de¬nomination, of course, in their at¬titudes toward other faiths. On the attitudes toward use of the “cruci¬fixion event ... as a tool ofrecrimination” of Jews, the studiesfound the “fundamentalist and neo-ortixxdox curricula rate considerablyhigher than either liberal or classi¬cal conservative at this point,” Lit-tell said.Warns of 'spiritualunderground'Littell also warned against the“new Nativists” who attack the re¬ligious co-operative agencies. “Therecould hardly be more concrete evi¬dence that we are on the righttrack than the constant attacks . . .by Carl Mclntire, Billy JamesHargis.

E. B. DuBois ciub refused recognitionUNM rejects group as Marxist'by Doug BrowningCallegiof* frill SarvicaALBUQUERQUE—The Universityaf New Mexico administration hasturned “thumbs down” on an appli¬cation by the Albuquerque chapterof the W.E.B. DuBois Clubs ofAmerica for recognition as a bonafide student group.The action came several weeksafter New Mexico President TomL. Pope joy announced the groupwould be denied recognition if itever applied for it because F.B.I.Director J. Edgar Hoover had de-nounced the national DuBois groupas a “Communist-spawned Marxistyouth organization.”Dean of Students Sherman E.Smith, who announced the decisionafter receiving a formal applicationfor recognition from the president ofthe local chapter, said, “The F.B.I.,in matters of this kind, is to be be¬lieved.”Morris Janowitz, professor of soesjf- prejudiced latke roast at the HkUalogy and director of the Center tor House, beginning at 10 pm. SMITH SAID, however, that thedoor was not completely closed to the club. He indicated the school’sadministration would be willing toreconsider its decision should theclub be able to refute Hoover’scharges.He also indicated the administra¬tion might be willing to reconsidershould tlve New Mexico student gov¬ernment approve the DuBois charter.James A. Kennedy, president ofthe Albuquerque DuBois chapter, ina prepared statement called for dejure and de facto recognition of theclub as a Legitimate student group.He said the constitution of thestudent government specifically stip¬ulates that “No students shall bedenied full and equal rights in thestudent community for reasons ofrace, nationality, sex, religion, orpolitical beliefs.”“THIS IS NOT ... just a batdeover the recognition of the DuBoisClub,” he said, “but rather a fightfor students over the right of stu¬dents to organize and participate onthat basis as well as others in stu¬dent Life. U is a fight fur freedom of speech and communication, free¬dom to disseminate ideas, freedomto organize and of assembly as stu¬dents in the university community,by all students whatever their poli¬tical or social views.”Kennedy said “at Least one facultymember “wrote Abty. Gen. Nicho¬las Katzenback asking for fulldocumentation and evidence ofHoover’s charges. He said Katzen-bach’s reply was that all such ma¬terial in the Justice Departmentwas classified material and not opento public inspection or inquiry.“We are thus denied access toany evidence that might exist—ifany does—against us either to de¬termine its nature or to clearly dis¬prove it,” Kennedy said.He said he thought it fair to askthe administration to follow thetradition of allowing a group to beconsidered innocent until provenguilty.Earber. Kennedy said his groupis socialist in nature, but is not con¬nected with the Communist Party. f?: 4EDITORIALPunishment given RooseveltSix editors of the Roosevelt Torchwere “suspended from organized stu¬dent activities” by Roosevelt presi¬dent Robert J. Fitchell last week. Thisaction followed a furor over a “bulle¬tin” printed in the edition of theTorch which was supposed to havebeen distributed a week ago last Sat¬urday.The “bulletin” quoted still-unidenti¬fied “sources” to the effect thatPitched had been “unofficially fired.”The sources also evidently felt thatRoosevelt might fall as an enterprisewithin the next two years, because ofa large debt.While the sources have not beenrevealed to anyone outside the Torcheditorial board, the editors tell usthey are perfectly certain of their sources’ reliability. We are willing toaccept their word on this question.There is still the question, ofcourse, of whether it was wise toprint the article in the first place. Wedo not presume to advise them inprint; they already realize that thething backfired, that any chance thatPitched would be fired was greatlyreduced by telling the world about it.Pitched has not helped his owncause very much, though, by decidingto suspend the editors from theirposts even before an investigatorycommittee which was set up last weekwrites its report. The Student Activi¬ties Board (SAB) at Roosevelt, whichis in charge of appointing and firingTorch editors, also disapproves of Torch editorsPitched’s action. At its meeting Fri¬day, the SAB unanimously passed aresolution suggesting that he shouldhave waited till ad the facts were in(The wSAB includes six faculty mem¬bers and six students).Pitched told a Maroon interviewerhe ready didn’t think it was a goodidea for the Administrative Councilof the deans to order ad the copiesof the Torch seized w hen the originalissue came out. But the next day, heordered much stronger action affect¬ing the other activities in which someof the editors participate, such asthe Student Senate. His professionsof concern for student liberties sound¬ed fairly convincing before the sus¬pension ; they are less so now.While the article probably did, as questionablePitched charges, violate some of the“canons of journalism” set up by theofficial regulatory board for theTorch, we question both the necessityto take such punitive action at all,and the necessity to issue an officiallist of rules and regulations for the“free” student press.One rather important note on theaffair is that Roosevelt Universityhas traditionally had as strong acommitment to student liberties andfreedom of thought as has UC. Thedifference is that Roosevelt has avery powerful board hovering everits student editors, which has thepower to dismiss editors. The Torchcase is the result. (Anyone for a“communications board” ?)Letters to the editor\ . -v v:-. V , ■ 5 •Wick on student affairs:autonomy the keyTO THE EDITOR:Perhaps I should call this essay,Know Your University, Part Two:Student Affairs and the Board ofTrustees. It may be regarded as acompanion piece to my commentsop the Levi proposals, which youprinted last Friday with minoremendations of my text. Thatcould have been entitled. Know YourUniversity, Part One: The Formu¬lation and Enactment of EducationalPolicy.In the first place, you “must bemade to realize” (to borrow the feli¬citous phrasing of your Friday edi¬torial) that unless some of its mem¬bers happen to read the Maroon, theBoard of Trustees is not aware ofWUCB’s hopes for an open-channelFM license, or of Student Govern¬ment's proposals for a general com¬munications board. There is there¬fore little point in speculating, asvoir editorial does, about the Trus¬tees' wishes concerning matters thatare not before them.In the second place, you “mustbe made to realize” the normalorder of procedure. If the Board ofTrustees is to be asked to assumelegal responsibility for a student-operated FM station, someone mustdesign an institutional arrangementthat will both ensure WUCB-FM'sproper freedom of programming andalso make the station accountablefor its exercise of the responsibili¬ties delegated to it by the Board aslegal licensee. When an arrange¬ment has been worked out that Iwould be willing to recommend, asthe officer directly responsible forstudent affairs, as meeting the de¬mands of the problem, I will trans¬mit my recommendation to thePresident. If he finds it acceptable,he may then present it to the Boardwith his own comments. In short,there is a lot of work to be donebefore the Board of Trustees be¬comes concerned with WUCB in anyfashion.IF YOU WERE unaware of thesepoints when you wrote your editorial, you could have asked about them.They are not secret lore.Since this is the way things stand,why don't I simply lay down myprescription for a piojxxsal that Iwould be willing to recommend?The least important reason is thatI do not have a ready-made list ofconditions at hand.A far more important reason isthat I believe—and I think StudentGovernment believes—in the princi¬ple of student autonomy and initia¬tive in the management of studentorganizations. As I understand thatprinciple, WUCB and Student Gov¬ernment should apply their intelli¬gence and their energies to the taskof devising a proposal that theyjudge to be adequate to the problemat hand. When they have done so,I shall be glad to examine it withthem listening sympathetically totheir reasons for thinking it suffi¬cient.To propose that ‘‘the administra¬tion” should say what it wants ina student organization would he tosubvert the whole rationale of stu¬dent self-government.If this much is dear, I shouldlike to correct what is at least afalse impression given by your newsarticle about the draift proposal fora communications board that lastTuesday's Assembly meeting re¬ferred back to committee for re¬drafting. I did not ‘‘turn down” theproposal, for I have neither thepower nor the inclination to makedecisions for Student Government.It was clear to everyone that thehastily rewritten and much watered-down draft was an absurdity, andwas even inconsistent with itself. Togive but one example, one clausegave the proposed board the duty ofensuring that WUCB-FM ‘‘operateaccording to the regulations” of theFederal Communications Com¬mission; while the very next clauseforbade it to consider any questionother than alleged libel or failureto make public a person’s claim tohave been misrepresented. The veryable officers of Student Governmentdid not need my opinion in orderto be aware that the draft was notworth voting on. YOURS FOR A more informedelectorate.WARNER WICKDEAN OF STUDENTSDamns edit (or‘damning’ trusteesTO THE EDITOR:There is - something curiouslycharming about reading a Marooneditorial couched in terms of dog¬matic absolutes. For example, theone in the November 20th editionsagely commends ‘‘SG's realization”that a publications clause in theCommunications Board resolul ionwould be improper. As the authorpiously states: “They have seen thelight. . . .”I agree that such a clause wouldnot be in the best interests of ourstudent body. I will even assume,as does the editorial, that the Uni¬versity board of trustees is likely toprefer a communications board thatwould have some control over theMaroon and the Cap ami Gown Ifthat is so, interested students cer¬tainly should try to change theminds of trustees.THE UNIVERSITY trustees areonly going to endorse student inter¬ests if they respect the spokesmenof those interests. To be frank, stu¬dents must be on favorable termswith the trustees in order to havetheir way. The author of this edi-oria] is botching that job with hisinsultingly righteous pronouncements:‘‘The solution, obviously, is to con¬vince the trustees to relent. Theymust be made to realize that thecreation of checks on publications isinconsistent with past as well aspresent University policy. They mustbe made to realize that time Is ofthe essence for WUCB’s FM applica¬tion. Finally, they must be made torealize that SG’s decision reflectsprevailing oanupus opinion and thatit would be foolish and unjust to actcontrary to it.”Not wishing to savor this tiresomeprose style, I only suggest that westudents are more likely to have ourway by tempting the trustees withour own interests, not by damningwhat might appear as their interests.Such haughty talk of University poli-N ADSPERSONALTHE SOCIAL RULES COMMITTEE ISWAITING FOR GODOT.S G.

I would have thought that aperson as experienced in the con¬duct of such drives as Fast chair¬man Dick Schmitt—chairman of UCCOR.E. SG CRC Chairman, and headof POLIT — would have exercisedmore foresight.The first administrative blunder RH&C's contribution. This allegationis supported by the fact that manypeople spent at least a dollar to eatat restaurants or drug stores; in ef¬fect, they spent a dollar to send50r to Mississippi. Wouldn't they havepreferred to give this dollar directlyto the drive for the convenience ofeating in the dorm? But they thoughtthey were giving $1.60 to the Fast!But even after his fir.-t two blun¬ders, Mr. Schmitt could have re¬deemed himself. On the night afterthe Maroon announced that RH&Cwould give only 50c for my mcaJ, Icalled Mr. Schmitt and asked if n>yname could be removed hv»m thelist; he replied that there was nochance of tliat. Unsatisfied, 1 con¬tacted an SG Representative wix>called Miss Kay and had my nameremoved from the list; 1 ate mydinner at B-J anti contributed adollar to the Fast.

If Mr. Schmitt hadtaken time to check the facts, hewould have found that RH&C hadgiven only 61c per student in Febru¬ary. A second article which quotedSchmitt as ‘dismayed” and repeatedtlie figure of $1.60 showed that theFast chairman had still not checkedthe facts.The results of these blunders areobvious.

Itsci-vdo seemed to be “Anything signi¬ficant can only be hinted at.” Assuch, it provided a welcome contrastto Lees’ Second Symphony (“Anycliche is worth repeating until youfind another”) which Martinon hasbeen vigorously championing.Constant’s major gift is orchestra¬tion. The sprawling instrumentalforces (including eight percussion-els) are delicately handled with aminimum of lushness. Moaninghorns, an extended passage for di¬vided double basses, five drummersslamming away at once, a timpan¬ist hitting his timpani with mara-cas: these are just a few of thesounds in Constant’s tonal prism.AND YET IT NEVER degeneratesinto a catalog of tone colors orvirtuosity per se. Rather, it seems: series of frustratingly rapid glimps¬es into an opiatic world, disturbedonly occasionally when the Stravin-sky influence takes on so obviousa character as to approach quota¬tion.The orchestra seemed to knowwhat was going on, but not to caremuch about it. Shostakovich’s Symphony No. 1,written when the composer was onlynineteen, is historically a tragicwork: tragic because it promises somuch, heralding genius which wenow know to have been unfulfilled.It is, in fact, one of the toweringmasterpieces of the twenties, pre¬cisely because, unlike Shostakovich’slater works, it makes no attemptto tower; because it refuses to takeitself too seriously. It is the unpre¬tentious expression of the confusionof a young man facing a world inboth musical and political flux: ajuxtaposition of youthful sarcasm, ir¬reverence. and tongue-in-cheek ban¬ality, with an undercurrent ofsearching despair.Quote of the day“Style is bad grammar usedconsistently.”— P. Rabinowitz,noted music criticIn the Brahms Double Concerto,Miller provided the juicy tone andsense of dedication and involve¬ment which have made him (justi¬fiably) one of the orchestra’s mostpopular members.

Satire, Tragedy, and Ab¬surdity — these are the ele¬ments of the current Tonightat 8:30 Series, continuing thisweekend at the Reynolds Club Thea¬ter. Combined in one program, theyprovide an interesting and worth¬while theater experience.Tie University Theater’s StudentWorkshop has traditionally producedmodern plays, and continues thecustom this quarter with threeFrench one-acters.Because of the differences’ be¬tween the plays, the choices provedvery advantageous, each piecehighlighting another aspect or thea¬ter or acting ability.TIIE FIRST PLAY, Supplementto the Voyage of Captain Cook byJean Giraudoux, gave both actorsand director an opportunity to reallyhave a laugh on our “civilized” .so¬ciety, which unfortunately neitherused.The “behind the scenes” storyeasily turns into a sarcastic, buthilarious, commentary on the Eng¬lish (or American) “way-of-life.”UC student Marc Cogan’s originaltranslation is genuinely funny, andnot even the “just fair” acting ofsome cast members could quash thedeserved laughter.Tiomas PuchaLski, as His Maj¬esty's rather stuffy taxidermist, andRichard Roberts as Outouru wereprobably the best actors in a mere¬ly adequate cast, and their discus¬sion of “Work! Property! and Mo¬rality! !” was the highlight of com¬edy. THE FINAL PLAY, Ubu Roi, wasa riot. Written by Alfred Jarry intiie late 1890's, the piece is an ob¬vious forerunner of the contem¬porary Theater of the Absurd, andJohn Lion was correct in directingit as a grand caricature.The story of the comic-strip melo¬drama deals with Pere Ubu. Cap¬tain of Dragoons, and his nefariousplot to murder the Polish king andset himself up as ruler. With hisoutspoken spouse, Mere Ubu, hecommits ghastly crimes, battles theCzar of Russia, and is finally de¬posed.. Lion's ideas were carried out well,both in scenery and props, andamong the actors.THE CAST BROADLY and enjoy-ably hammed their way through theburlesque. Both Gillian Schwarzmanand Robin Heiss stood out withespecially good performances, andDonald Swanton as Pere Ubu ran avery close third.The only unfortunate aspects ofthe production were the frequent andrather uncoordinated scene changes,and the feeling that there was sim¬ply too much going on. By the end ofthe play the audience was mentallyexhausted because of the franticmovement on the stage. But in spite of these difficulties, Ubu Roiwas fun.It is de Ghelderode’s play, Escu-rial, -however, that deserves themost attention. Unlike the other two,this is no comedy. Both actors anddirectors have united their outstand¬ing talents to make this a trulyfascinating and moving drama.The first glance at the stage ablyreadies the audience for what willfollow. In a dark, decaying castle,his throne high on a dais sits aking seemingly grieving over thedeath of his queen.VICTOR ROSTOW GAVE AN as¬tounding performance as the king.He had absolute control over hismovements, and used every gestureto emphasize some aspect of theking’s tortured personality.This group of plays, and Escurialespecially, merits the supiJort of tiieuniversity community.Joan TapperMODEL CAMERAQUALITY 24 Hr.DEVELOPINGEXPERT PHOTO ADVICENSA DISCOUNTS1342 E. 55th HY 3-9259 BOB NELSON MOTORSImport CentreM.

Yes, a trial.Why not? There is a vaild publicinterest in the choreographed move¬ments of judges and marshalls,.lawyers and witnesses, plaintiffs anddefendants. They perform beforeaudiences but. like university lec¬turers and other serious perform¬ing artists, measure their successagainst a professional standardrather than the approval of the spec¬tators. They have even achieved ahardcore body of regulars, like theballetomanes of another aestheticpersuasion, who attend the courtsdaily to witness whatever is inter¬esting — most of them retired oldmen and unemployed middleagedmen who would rather seek livedrama and scandal than watch thetoo-credible fabrications of televi¬sion. We should like to nominatethe trial, especially the criminaltrial, as a legitimate performingart. a subject fit for evaluation byUie amateur reviewer.Aesthetic potentialWe particularly recommend it be¬cause we have recently attended thethree days of a trial which exem¬plifies the aesthetic potentialities oftlie juridical art. This trial, held onNovember 9th, 10th and 12th be¬fore Federal District Judge JuliusHoffman, took as its theme die fu¬ture Life of a young man who badflagrantly defied the Selective Serv¬ice laws.THE DEFENDANT. Robert WardSwitzer, formerly a student atShimer Colloge in northern Illinois,was charged with refusing to beprocessed for induction into ttieArmy, and also with failing to oarryIris draft caids. He was found guiltyon both charges.Switzer had made no secret ofhis acts. He burned his draft cardsin front of the Federal courthousein Miami (where lie was participat¬ing in a Canada-to-Cuba peace walk)early in July, and wlien his Giicagodraft board pressed a new set onhim, he burned them again at tlieFederal courthouse in Chicago aftertwo weeks of anti-conscription pick¬eting at the courthouse and his draft board. Early in August, whenhis draft board ordered him in¬ducted — Switzer thinks in retalia¬tion for the dramatic protest — heappeared with a letter explainingwhy he would not cooperate withinduction, and refused W fill out alJof the forms.Thus the outcome of the trialshould have been inevitable. Thedefendant, a pacifist and opponentof conscription, was guilty becauselie wanted to be guilty. He hadcommitted public ‘‘civil disobedi¬ence'’ — as Thoreau called theprocess of conspicuously violating alaw which is morally offensive —and he expected to pay the penalty.He had not even planned to be rep¬resented by a lawyer.Had Switzer’s intentions remainedfirm, the trial would not have beena worthy subject for this review.However, three developments inRobert Switzer’s life between thefirst week in August, when his actsof protest were completed, and thesecond week of November, when hewas tried, made the trial moving —and the verdict troubling to thesereviewers.FIRST, THE 23-year-old pacifist,after more than six months of publicand unhesitant protest against “con¬scription and militarism,” heedednumerous indications of serious emo¬tional disturbance and began treat¬ment with a psychiatrist. In theprocess, he began to regret thehaste with which some of his de¬cisions were made.Second, in mid-September hemarried the girl friend who hadstood with him through his protest(she had held the match with whichhe lighted his draft cards on July31st), and began to experience amore settled and emotionally satis¬fying way of life.Baby on wayThird, in late October he discov¬ered that a baby was on the way— welcome news, but for the factthat he had burned his draft cardsbehind him and a jail term loomed.His perspective dianged; prison didnot seem so welcome. He offeredto perform alternative service asprovided in the draft laws for con¬scientious objectors — which he hadpreviously rejected as cooperationwith the “militarism” he opposed— but the government refused: theUNIVERSITY THEATRETRYOUTSTODAY, TUESDAY, NOV. 24thWILUAM WYCHERLEYS’THE COUNTRY WIFEDirected by James O'ReillyProduction Late in JanuaryTODAY from 3 to 5 and 7 to 9 p.m.Third Floor, Reynolds Club Theatre isSINAI TEMPLEFORUM5350 SOUTH SHORE DRIVEpresentsOTTO PREMINGERWORLD-RENOWNED MOVIEAND THEATRICAL PRODUCER AND DIRECTORWEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 28:15 p.m.“CENSORSHIP AND THE ARTS”Admission $2.00For Further Information: BU 8-1600 protest had been too public anddramatic.To those who were aware ofSwitzer’s developing thoughts, tiietrial itself presented a study in ab¬surdity. It took up every fact butthe real ooes — the internal dilem¬ma of a young man, vacillatingbetween the principles in which hebelieves and the life which couldlie before him.Knowing no other way to try toescape the prison sentence he previ¬ously welcomed, he engaged twolawyers. They conducted the onlyform of defense open to them — em¬phasizing the several technical vio¬lations of procedure committed bythe government in the inductionprocess.THIS DISQUIETED Switzer, whohad no desire to see his high prin¬ciples dissolved into legal bickeringabout whether the draft board orthe Army induction center had de¬leted some petty procedure withwhich he had no intention of coop¬erating anyway. What is the im¬portance of “due process" if youhave rejected the entire process?First days undramaticThus, the conduct of the trial,for the first two and a half days,was decidedly undramatic. The gov¬ernment submitted documents asexhibits and called witnesses toverify their correctness. The de¬fense did the same. Hie defensegave its legal arguments and askedthe judge to dismiss the charges:the government answered that thetechnical arguments were insuffi¬cient grounds for dismissal, andJudge Hoffman agreed.But these were the only issuespresented in the evidence. The lastafternoon of the trial, the govern¬ment summarized its case, docu¬menting Switzer's acts in chronologi¬cal older. The defense summarywent back over the technicalities.The judge asked the government toreply to the technical issues. Whenthe defense asked to rebut tlie gov¬ ernment’s remarks, Judge Hoffmanrefused: the defense had had itschance.Without a recess to flunk abouttiie evidence, Judge Hoffman passedhis verdict. He read each chargeinto the record and pronounced tiiedefendant guilty on each. He an¬nounced that sentencing would betiie following Friday.Judge Julius Hoffman is a littleman — little more than five feettall, with a slim build; he has asmooth face and heavy features re¬miniscent of a vaudeville promoter.His age, well past seventy, si lowsin his wizened voice and tte heavy,belittling sarcasm he directed at tiiedefense lawyers at every ojiportu-nity.SITTING ERECT ON his plat¬form, with Switzer standing beforehim and the two defense lawyerson either side of Switzer, the twogovernment prosecutors at one side.Judge Hoffman announced thatSwitzer was “remanded to the cus¬tody of the US marshal.” A defenselawyer pointed out that Switzer hadbeen allowed to remain out of jailwithout bond during the many weeksbetween indictment and trial; heasked if that status could continue.Patriotic indignationNo, answered the judge in anoutburst of indignant patriotic rhe¬toric, this man is a “dangerous agi¬tator.” He would feel remiss in hisduty if he left him free to continuehis efforts to “overthrow the gov¬ernment.” He is “seditious.” Clear¬ly, the judge believed, the nationwould be safer if Robert Switzersfient the eight days until sentencingbehind bars in the Cook CountyJail.The gavel banged. The court hadadjourned.The performance, like the Piran¬dello play currently acted at HydePark’s, new Harper Theatre, was astudy in unreality.
