Volume 78, Number 29 The University of Chicago Friday, January 16, 1970Council Considers SG Observer PlanIN THE COLD: Visiting a friend behind the glass. By Gerard Leva!Four members of the student government(SG) assembly went before the Council ofthe faculty Senate at its Tuesday meetingin Business East 106 to persuade that bodyto permit student observers to attend itsmeetings.The decision to request permission tosend participating student observers to themeetings of the Council was made unani¬mously last quarter by the SG assembly. Atits last meeting of the quarter the assemblyelected three representatives and an alter¬nate to go to the Council and present SG’sreasons for requesting the right to send ob¬servers.The four students who addressed theCouncil members were Connie Maravell,graduate student of business and presidentof SG, Bill Griffith, a graduate student inmathematics, David Bensman, 70 and al¬ternate Jonathan Rosenblum, 73. Follow¬ing the reading of a statement by Bensman,the members of the Council questioned allfour students and expressed their own opin¬ions on the observer proposal.In his statement Bensman outlined theproposed functions of observers, saying,“They will participate in discussion andconform to the Council’s standards of con¬fidentiality. We do not request t iat studentsbe given a vote.” He then enumerated thereasons for the request that students beallowed to participate in Council proceed¬ings. He emphasized that “students haveexperience in some areas that faculty maynot have,” and also saw student participa¬tion on the Council as enabling students to“gain insight into faculty decision-mak-Moratorium Honors King's MemoryConspiracy 7 defendent. David Dellingerand Illinis Black Panther Bobby Rush high¬lighted the list of speakers honoring thebirthday of Dr. Martin Luther King, JrThursday night at Rockefeller Chapel.About 1000 persons attended the tribute,given as an observance of the fourth monthof the moratorium against the war in VietNam. The program included speeches byEd Reddick of Operation Breadbasket, andSidney Lens of the New Mobilization Com¬mittee, and a choral tribute by the McLinensemble.Speaking of Dr. King, Dellinger observedthat the real test of our devotion to a manis our devotion to the things that moved him, and challenged the audience to carryout King’s ideals. Dellinger warned againstturning Dr King into a saint or a god, whileignoring his works and not continuing tofight injustice.Dellinger stated that Dr King’s nonvio¬lence did not blindly sanction law and orderor the status quo. “They didn’t kill him be¬cause he peacefully and nonviolently ac¬quiesced in poverty and inequality. Theykilled him because he protested againstthese things, and his protest included non¬violence.”King’s nonviolence was a positive force,Dellinger said, yet King had struggledagainst having his non-violence turned into law and order and cooperation with thestatus quo. “Today we need a synthesis,”he said. “Both non-violence and ‘old vio¬lence’ have failed.”Dellinger suggested that the creation of aholiday for King was more appropriatethan a holiday for George Washington, andcalled for an end to the violence built intothe assumptions of our society.Rush, heir apparent to the leadership ofIllinois’ Black Panthers, was surrounded byfour black-hatted members of the groupand began his speech with an emotional“All power to the People.”He said that it was an honor for the Pan¬thers to participate in the tribute to King,but wondered how many people in the au¬dience had made commitments to the workhe undertook. “If you’re just going to allowyourself to- participate on holidays,” hesaid, “then Nixon will give you all the holi¬days you want.”Rush said that he agreed with King’sideals, but not with his tactics and saidKing was killed “not because the pigs inthe power structure were so strong, but be-casue we were so weak.”Rush added that although great leaderslike King and Malcom X had lived anddied, the injustices still continued and theonly alternative is for the troops to mobi¬lize.The Panther leader made clear his dis¬trust of the Nixon administration. “I knowthey imported Agnew from Greece to fosterfascism here,” he said. “I think TrickyDick is trying to play German and I’m go¬ing to tell him that the black people are notgoing to play Jew.“War is politics with bloodshed, and poli¬tics is war without bloodshed,” Rush con¬tinued. “The black people ain’t free be¬cause blacks ain’t never had no politics and ing.” In concluding, Bensman urged theCouncil to accept student observers “as amove away from political confrontation, to¬wards a community governed by reasonedjudgment.”Following the presentation and sub¬sequent discussions, the SG members leftthe Council, whose members went on to dis¬cuss other business without coming to a de¬cision on the observer issue.Refusing to answer questions immediate¬ly after exiting from the Council, the fourSG representatives issued a brief statementevaluating the meeting. In part the state¬ment read, “We feel that the meeting withthe Council was an example of what it willbe like to have participating student ob¬servers. We didn’t feel that the argumentsagainst us were convincing, but this doesnot mean that the Council will approve themeasure.”Several members of the Council of thefaculty Senate later volunteered their com¬ments on the presentation and substance ofthe student observer issue. Richard Lewon-tin, professor of biology pointed to the sym¬bolic nature of the SG request. “A symbolicchange in power relationships in the Uni¬versity is what the students seem inter¬ested in. Such a change can lead to nothingless than the writing of a new social con¬tract for the University,” he said.Elaborating on this idea, Lewontin wenton to say, “The issue for the faculty is notfear of students, rather it is indignation atthe writing of this new social contract.”Also viewing the SG request and presen¬tation as symbolic, Ira Wool, professor ofphysiology and biochemistry, saw some sig¬nificance in the initial effect of having stu¬dents address the Council. In describingthis he said, “The Council in effect lost itsvirginity Tuesday with regards to this mat¬ter, and it wasn’t so painful.”Wool expressed his personal belief thatthere should be students on the facultyCouncil. He further stated that he thoughtthat the minutes of the meetings should bewidely circulated and made available toanyone who might wish to read them.The ambiguity of the role of observersand the impracticality of the SG requestwere stressed by Karl Bemesderfer, presi¬dent Edward Levi’s assistant and not amember of the Council.

Yet the lotterywas hailed by many as an important firststep in the reform of the draft.Now, six weeks after the December firstlottery, what is the reaction of studentshere to this event, which may greatly affecttheir futures?On the night of the lottery, students clus¬tered around televisions sets and radios allover campus to hear the results of thedrawing. The lucky ones rejoiced and thelosers tried to forget it, but every manknew his number. The next day, mengreeted one another with, “I’m 156, howabout you?”HI! The lottery doesn't effect him. He'slucky. One student, who scoped a 279, said, “Atfirst, there was an initial ecstacy, I’m nolonger ecstatic. My close friends and myfamily were more happy with the number Igot than I was myself. I think the lotterywas a plot on Nixon’s part to exploit theunlucky.”Another student said, “The lottery madeit better than it was, (the draft) but I don’tthink college students should have to worryabout it. There are still the same hasslesfor most students — if you get out, you getdrafted. I haven’t heard anyone who thinksit was such a good idea.”Students who scored both high and lownumbers condemned the lottery; it doesn’tseem to have had the effect of changingattitudes toward the draft, the war, orPresident Nixon. On the other hand, menwho scored high express a “psychologicalrelief,” while those who were unlucky areoften “glad to know where they stand.”It is impossible to determine how manystudents are turning in their 2-s defermentsand taking their chances with the draft thisyear. From random investigation, however,it seems that fewer students are turning indeferments than expected. Though manytalked about it after doing well in the lotte¬ry, the higher draft calls for the firstmonths of the year have scared manyaway.Mrs. Ruth Regan, selective service advi¬sor for the office of the Registrar, said,“It’s not necessary to send a statement ofregistration every quarter to the draftboard.” Thus there is no way of knowinghow many students may be turning in their2-S’s.On the other hand, many students whodid not have a 2-S and did not fare well inthe lottery have been applying for a state¬ment of registration from the University.MODERN DANCE CLASSES4,30 to 6.00Mondoy • SotvrdoyBoffet, Rock 4 Jon tovgkf.Allison Theater Dance Center17 N.

They don’t have to tell uswhat their status is.”Ben Blaney, a draft counselor for theAmerican Friends Service Committee(AFSC) in Quaker House noted a like in¬crease in concern among University stu¬dents over the draft resulting from the lot¬tery.‘There are a lot of people who keep put¬ting it off, (talking to a counselor) puttingit off. Then all of a sudden, there are peoplewho are below number 250 realizing thatthey have to face up to the draft.“The first week after the lottery, we hadthree to four times as many people comingin. At the present time, we are still gettingone and a half to two times as manypeople coming in. . .“The draft is the same as before, butmore people are jolted and are trying to getdeferments. The conclusion I draw is thatNixon’s policy has gotten more people toshirk what he would consider to be theirresponsibility.”On the other hand, Blaney does not thinkthat the lottery has gotten many people offthe hook with the draft: “Even before thelottery, the boards, especially in middle-class suburbs, were drafting people down tothe age of nineteen and a half. So thatmeans they’re going to draft everybodyanyway.”It was postulated at the time of the lotte¬ry that it would be effective in breaking upthe draft resistance movement, a form of“divide and conquer,” the men with high numbers would be less likely to be vervradical. yJeremy Mott, one of the foremost organizers of the Chicago Area Draft Resisters(CADRE) disagrees. He believes that thelottery has had little influence on the resis¬tance movement. Mott was recently inHyde Park at the First Unitarian Churchfor a conference on draft refusal and nonre¬gistration. He is a Quaker and was recentlyreleased from prison where he served timefor draft refusal.“There have been two effects of the lotte¬ry,” Mott said. Objectively, there has beenvery minor change in the draft. There is achange in the order of I-A induction. Theindividual has the same five alternatives -service, a conscientious objector, a defer¬ment of some kind, leaving the country,and jail. The only important thing about thelottery is that certain men with high num¬bers can be I-A and not drafted.“The psychological effect is that menwith high numbers think they will not betaken and men with low numbers knowthey will be taken. Many of them will bethinking about resistance.”Blaney agrees with Mott: “It (the lotte¬ry) is forcing guys to come in to us beforetheir induction order, which isgood. . .After the first week of the lottery,people with high numbers realized thatthey weren’t as well off as they thought.”So it seems that the lottery, instead ofbringing relief to some and certainty to therest, is forcing many students to think se¬riously about the draft. The net effect of theDecember first drawing has been to strikehome the reality of the draft to many whohad hidden behind the safety of a 2-S.Most students don’t trust Nixon anyway,and have reacted to the lottery suspiciously(one called it a “hoax designed to screwpeople”). Rather than viewing it as a movetoward reform, they see it as “serving tocover up the situation.”In short, the lottery has backfired.2/The Chicago Maroon/January 16, 1970Mxrvlki *1" nw,* v (*4441 CenturionSpace-age magnesium alloy framewith tensile strength of over tll.lMMIfounds per -quaie inch allows open1 hroai const na tion.Vou get greater velocity with less eltort.One-piece fiame has no laminations,rivets, or hollow areas for exact weightami balance coat ml.You get the weight and balance you need.St rune conventionally with gut, in recessedIT moves around tip- head allowing for equaltension thrnujrfiout the face and near thefiame.You get great control, a lull "sweep spot."Contoured grooves protect the -flingsstrinirs don't touch the irmiind when racquetis dropped.You get assurance ol less string breakage.Oval" head design with open throat for mini¬mum ail-resistance, maximum acceleration.You get a quick stroke that is quicker.fairway Grip made in Fnglalid,wrapped offine quality -oft leather with special tackyfeel to minimize handle slippage.You get a grip that's comfortable, sure.Frame clocked for surface flaw- hy thefluorescent penetrant technique used in theaem-pace industry.

The purpose of this march is todemand the renaming of Flint House toSmyrd Hall, after Wallace FranciscoSmyrd, the notorious University leche(lechery is the theme of the dance.)In the past. President Beadle would greet the marchers on the porch of the Presi¬dent’s house and pledge to continue thefight against those nefarious interestgroups, who always opposed Smyrd. Lastyear Dean Wayne Booth continued the tra¬dition and the pledge. This year’s estab¬lishment figure has yet to be chosen.For the first time in ten years womenwill be charged the price of admission,slightly less than that of men. According toJeff Saffle, chairmen of the Smyrd ball,“The price of lechery has gone up.” By Stan GoumasA winter attack against landlords is beinglaunched by the student government (SG)tenant union project (TUP) in a massivecampaign that includes the mailing of 8,000questionnaire — leaflets to apartmentdwelling University students next week.TUP is part of a nationwide movement, in¬cluding both students and adults, to securemore bargaining power and control for ten¬ants.Members of TUP discussed plans for thewinter campaign at a meeting Wednesdayalso attended by organizers from the HydePar k-Kenwood Community Conference(HPKCC), the head organization affiliatedwith TUP.The immediate purpose of the tenantunion is to secure more power for tenantsin their dealings with landlords and realestate agents.TUP has organized three buildings nearcampus, two at 53 St and Kenwood, and oneat 5462-70 Cornell.The tenant union of the HPKCC, whichhas existed for about 9 months, has madecontacts in 62 buildings, of which 15 arewell organized, according to Rick Geiger,an Organizer. Most of these are victims ofbuilding code violations.In addition, a new tenant union for mar¬ried student housing will hold its first meet¬ing Monday night at the Picadilly, 5107Blackstone. This union is also a branch ofHPKCC.While complaints of inadequate heatingor poor maintenance and high rents are nu¬merous, tenants are often afraid to orga¬nize against their landlord, for fear of retal¬ iation and harassment, according to someTUP members.This fear, they maintain, is an illusion.While HPKCC provides lawyers, and whilebuilding code violations are an objective,legal fact which can be checked, it mayoften not be necessary to file a suit againstthe landlord at all. Stan Goumas, ’72. aTUP regional coordinator, said “dramaticuse of Chicago newspapers and mass mediacould force him to yield to our demands.”Mass-picketing of the landlord’s church onSundays is one such possibility, he sug¬gested.A mass rent strike is one of the mosteffective means of putting pressure on thelandlord, according to Frank Day ’70, TUPchairman. Day said the landlord is unlikelyto attempt eviction, because the legal costswould exceed his loss from allowing therent-strike to continue.One member, in comparing the nation¬wide movement to the black and thirdworld liberation movements, said “Oncethe slaves are convinced they can throw offtheir chains, the act is as good as done.”SG began work on the tenant unionproject last quarter. The project, backedby Con-Con delegate A1 Raby, a graduatestudent in the University, was a majorproject of this year’s SG. Under Day’sleadership the project has received thebacking of many important student or¬ganizations and community groups includ¬ing the Hyde-Park Kenwood CommunityConference.The project is still seeking to contactany group of tenants who wish to form aunion in their building. Any interested stu¬dent tenants should contact Day throughthe SG office.Five Journalists Examine the Urban SituationURBAN JOURNALISTS: From loft: Udloy K. Pearson, Roger T Flaneriy, Bettie Washington, and John Harlow. At top: Whittier Sengstacke.By Sue Lothi Five young journalists with an interest incity problems have just finished their sec-! ond week of classes in a six-month programdesigned to help them better understandj the urban news they report.The five, appointed as associates to theCenter for Policy Study (CPS), will workwith urban field faculty and outside special-i ists, auditing coyrses and attending weeklyseminars on urban affairs and problems.They will work with such community orga¬nizations as the Woodlawn Mental HealthClinic, the Woodlawn Child Care Center,the Urban Education Project, and the Man-del Legal Aid Clinic. They will also partici¬pate in CPS conferences and projects spon¬sored by the Center for Urban Studies.The program, now in its second year, is“considerably more ambitious” than lastyear’s, asserted program coordinator PaulGapp. This year’s associates will be askedto submit a research paper on a specificproblem or group of problems, which willbe considered for publication by the CPS.The papers will serve to focus each associ¬ates’ program and provide a possible start¬ing point for future articles when the jour¬nalists return to work from their leaves ofabsence, Gapp said. The scope of the program has also in¬creased, Gapp said. “We’re going beyondthe campus and neighborhood to put theassociates in contact with people involvedin all manners of urban problems — every¬body from city planners at City Hall toblack militants,” he said.“The program, as last year, will have astrong academic focus,” Gapp said.Of the program’s aims, Eddie Williams,vice-president for public affairs and actingdirector of the CPS, said “We don’t try toenhance their writing skills. We try to af¬fect their minds, to show them the prob¬lems, to help them avoid the glib answers,the hasty generalizations ...“It seems to me to be in the public inter¬est to have the underlying causes and ef¬fects of the problems shown.“In the media there are not that manyopportunities to enhance this knowledge. Sowe’re trying to help fill the vacuum.”The Associates Program, one of aboutfive in the country, was conceived after theCenter for Policy Study’s “The Media andthe Cities” conference.Participants in the conference, held inMay, 1968 as part of the Center’s two-yearproject on urban problems, admitted theneed for reporters who could put urbannews in a sharper perspective. The Cen¬ ter’s first two associates Constance Harperand Daniel Sheridan, won grants to studyhere the first two quarters of 1969.The Ford Foundation now funds the pro¬gram period.This year’s associates, who range in agefrom 25 to 33, are:• Roger Flaherty, a former priest nowurban affairs reporter for the Lerner pa¬pers, in Chicago;• John Harlow, a native New Zealanderand news editor of the Associated Press bu¬reau in New York City;• Ladley Pearson, a recently wed report¬er for the Newark News, Newark, New Jer¬sey;• Whittier Sengstacke, Jr., a native Chi¬cagoan now associate editor of the Tri-stateDefender in Memphis, Tennessee; and• Mrs. Bettie Washington, a reporter andfeature writer for the Chicago Daily News.President Edward Levi has described theCenter for Policy Study founded in 1966with University and private support, as aforum “to reexamine problems and ideas ofour times ... not only within the context ofparticular disciplines, but head-on with theproblem or idea as the focus of the dis¬cussion, with many disciplines contributingto the examination.”Among the Center’s other projects have been the 16-month study of China, MiddleEast seminar on the eve of the six-daywar; and urban conferences on “ShortTerm and Emergency Measures to AvertUrban Violence”, the inequality of publiceducation, race and unemployment, citybuilding, and Model Cities. The Center’slecture series has also included such speak¬ers as Jimmy Breslin, Ramsey Clark, Rob¬ert Kennedy, Theodore Sorensen, and Whit¬ney Young, Jr.* i . • . - . i • <•,<« • • IJanuary 1&, 1970/The Chicago Maroon/3FOTA 70 Are you interested in the arts?Do you enjoy working behind the scenes?Is organization your bag or do you have ideas?If yes is your answer to any or all of the above, why don't you become partof the most significant happening of the year-THE FESTIVAL OF THE ARTSContact any of the staff members or coordinators below for furtherinformation on areas of interest or, if you prefer, contact the chairman andcreate a new program.

They claim the lottery numbers as¬signed to youths in the last six months ofthe year have a lower monthly averagethan for the first six months. The mixingprocedure for the capsules containing thedates was allegedly insufficient.Federal judge James Doyle of Madisonagreed to hear a test case on the lottery,but refused to issue the restraining orderagainst inductions on the basis of evidenceso far presented. One WDSG member,Students To HearPolitical SpeakersStuart Ball Jr. of the Conspriacy defenseteam and representatives from the Weath¬ermen and the Black Panthers will speakat the organizational meeting of the LawSchool Students To Release All PoliticalPrisoners Monday at 8 pm in the GreenLounge, 5848 University Ave.One member who asked to remain ano¬nymous said the new group was “formed inresponse to the lack of political interestaround the law school.” Anyone is welcometo this first organizational meeting, he said,but “it will be a law students’ thing.”Guest speaker Stuart Ball Jr. son of theformer president of Montgomery Ward wasordered out of the Conspiracy trial court¬room last Decergber 16 when Judge JuliusHoffman accused him of laughing at one ofthe judge’s remarks.Although Ball and others at the defensetable denied the truth of the accusation andseveral people admitted they were the oneswho had laughed, Judge Hoffman refusedto rescind his order.Stuart Ball Sr. later testified in behalf ofhis son, saying Ball Jr. never lied and wasinnocent of this act. Judge Hoffman stillrefused to reinstate Ball Jr. who is no long-er sitting at the defense table. James Rissman, is in the Chicago area togive information and raise money forbringing in the expert witnesses that arenecessary to press the case.The group is quite optimistic about thecase according to Rissman and sees it asjust the first step in their fight to end thedraft altogether. “We hope to focus nation¬al attention on the deception involved in thepresent draft system in time for the Senatearmed services committee hearings on thedraft scheduled to begin in February 10,”Rissman said.In addition to incompetence regardingthe new system’s randomness, the groupalso charges that far more than the prom¬ised one third of the draft pool will becalled, in some areas as many as 95 per¬cent. And if a local board runs out of menfor that year, as seems likely in someareas, according to the group, men fromprevious years may be called, con¬tradicting Nixon’s one-year-only promise,they charge.More information is available through theChicago Area Draft Resisters (CADRE) of¬fice at 519 W North Ave, phone 664-6967from noon to six pm Monday through Satur¬day. Several thousand dollars to finance thecase are needed immediately. A represen¬tative will be in Mandel Hall Corridor start¬ing today. Checks may be sent to WisconsinDraft Study Group, P.O.

FLOWER POWER: A daisy marks the spot where a car will sit.$100,000 Given for Hospital WingThe construction of the north wing exten¬sion to Billings Hospital took another stepforward last week with the presentation ofa $100,000 check to University PresidentEdward Levi by the Gastrointestinal re¬search foundation. The new north wing hasbeen designated as the future site of theUniversity’s center for the study of diges¬tive diseases.Although moving to new quarters, theGastrointestinal Institute has been in exis¬tence for nearly ten years. Headed by DrJoseph Kirsner, professor of medicine, theinstitute has conducted extensive gas¬troenterological research over the years. The Gastrointestinal Research Founda¬tion, which subsidizes to a large extent allof the institute’s activities, is devoted solelyto the purpose of supporting Dr Kirsner’swork. According to Mrs Terese Denov, of¬fice manager of the Gastrointestinal In¬stitute, the foundation has virtually “built”the Gil library and has provided much ofthe financial resources for the section’sequipment fund.

They are wrong. An example willmake the point clear. If a man injures hisleg there are two alternatives. First, he canbe glad he still has another leg (accept thereport) or second, he can try to fix the legno matter how painful (reject it).If the report is accepted, an extremelydangerous status quo will be established.Not only does two students out of sevenmembers allow the disciplinary committeeto function without students, but in any votestudent’s views would always lose unlessthey could sway two of the voting facultymembers. In short, students would be le¬gitimizing the same type of disciplinaryprocedures that they have been objectingto.Article 15 of the student bill of rightsclearly states “The right to fair and impar¬tial trial with all due process of the law inall disciplinary matters, with right of ap¬peal to the student-faculty-administrationcourt in such matters judged in part or en¬tirely by students.” Yet on page seven of the Wegener reportit states that the article “has not and doesnot apply to decisions of disciplinary com¬mittees.” This is only because studentshave never served on disciplinary com¬mittees! Further, recommendation ninesets up a review board which is illegal.Once something becomes formal it is dif¬ficult to change it. Now the University is ina state of flux. Positions have not been so¬lidified since the sit-in. If students acceptthe report now, they will be closing the is¬sue prematurely.The Maroon implores students to provethat they are trustworthy. Why should stu¬dents have to prove this? Why are studentsbeing judged guilty by their fellow stu¬dents? A priori, there is no reason why thesame burden of proof be put on the faculty.The Lucas committee decisions certainlyindicate that the faculty does not behaveimpartially. Reconciliation is desirablebut it is not possible in the present atmos¬phere because the students themselves donot feel they have the right to ask for a fairsettlement.

It is always a little pa¬thetic when the political system reaches outand impinges on the apolitical or those whoare merely trying to survive within it bydoing what’s right.Certainly it must be acknowledged thatany state must have the right to insure itsown survival by enforcing its laws. Butwhat we see in this case, as in the con¬spiracy trial, is a society struggling desper¬ately to protect itself. It is being threatenedbecause its institutions are morally shaky.Instead of examining itself, or re-eval¬uating itself, it snaps back at the opposi¬tion, threatens it in turn with its own powerto punish, like an unthinking parent with anaughty child. It reacts like a paranoiac la¬beling and conceiving of all opposition interms of “conspiracy.” It tries to preserveits respectability which renders its citizenspolite without being kind.Surely abortion rings can be organized bycriminals who prey upon the unfortunate.But Rabbi Ticktin’s intentions were, I sus¬pect, not criminal. When Nora in Ibsen'sStrike Issues Meet Student ApathyBy David BensmanThe American laobr movement is unitedas never before in defense of 150,000 work¬ers in 14 unions striking against GeneralElectric. Among students, who considerthemselves the most socially concernedsegment of American society, the GEstrike evokes indifference, or at most,vague sympathy. Why is this so?The GE strike involves issues that thelabor movement sees as vital to its surviv¬al. They say that GE has adopted a pa¬ternalistic attitude towards its workerswhich says “Big Daddy will decide what isbest for its stockholders and its workers,and then will explain patiently to everyonewhy Daddy knows best”. No collective bar¬gaining, an attempt to subvert the unionleadership — in short, Boulwarism. Thecourts have already found GE’s bargainingtactics illegal, but the legal process tooknine years to do its work. The GE workerscan’t wait.Of course, the other central issue is mon¬ey. GE workers earn, on the average,33.25/hr., a takehome pay of $5000 a year.While GE profits rose 78x/2 percent in tenyears, its workers’ wages increased only 25percent. Yet GE has dared to blame in¬flation on high wages.These issues, so vital to the labor move¬ment, just do not appeal to the moral senseof students. Students do not remember, orknow of, the days before the rights ofunions to represent workers and bargaincollectively in their interest were estab¬lished by law. They see union members asfat-cats, controlling wealth and power al¬most on the level of the giant corporations.Further, They see unions as concernedonly with money, devoid of all social vi¬sion. Images of gangsterism a la JamesHoffa, and Tony Boyle, bigotry— “But la¬bor voted for Wallace” — and militarism“Labor supports the WAR —, further di¬minish student support of the labor move¬ment.In a sense, one should not be surprisedat student disapproval of organized labor.Students, after all, are middle-class; at el¬ite universities, most are upper-middleclass. To a large extent, disapproval ofworkers and their unions is a manifesta¬tion of class prejudice based on the senseof moral superiority which is the essenceof the upper-middle-class.“Workers just want money.” Yes, theydo want money, because raising a familyon $5000 a year is no easy matter, andcertainly not a comfortable one. It is mucheasier for a student coming from an upper-middle-class background and looking for¬ward to a comfortable professional careerto disdain pecuniary motives than it is for GADFLY“Workers are organized into bureau¬cratic, manipulative, institutions”. Yes,workers are organized, and depend onstrong leadership, but in the face of strong,superbly manipulative and determined cor¬porate enemies, workers have learned thatthis is the only way to defend themselves.“Besides, workers are gangsters, bigots,and hawks”. Such a statement is obviouslybased on class prejudice. Workers did notvote for Wallace in large numbers; in fact,a smaller percentage of union membersvoted for Wallace than did young voters.And unionists do not vote for the war; theyvote for doves as well as hawks, and nevervote for a hawk Republican rather than adove Democrat.This brings us to another central point.Not only are students prejudiced againstunions, they know very little about them.This is not surprising, considering that themass media and public schools are domi¬nated by capitalist ideaology. But to thinkof union members as fat cats, when theirearnings range largely from $4000-39000 ayear, and that only because of overtime, isto have succumbed much too strongly tocapitalist lies from Life Magazine and theNew York Times. To think of unions aspwerful and sold-out is extreme naivete;there are 14 unions working for GE be¬cause GE has asserted its strength to keepany one union from getting too large. Prof¬its have risen so high compared to wagesbecause GE has had the power to resistwage increases. GE has the power andwealth to print full page lies in newspapersall across the country. Tie unions have solittle money they can pay strike benefits ofonly $12 a week, and can’t even considerpaying the capitalist press for ads to tellthe unions’ side of the story, even when thewhole labor movement has joined togetherto support the strike. GE has powerful al¬lies who can tell the American people thathigh wages are the cause of inflation, theunions can’t even get the story of a massdemonstration in support of the strike intothe New York Times.Still, some students have come to thesupport of the strike. There are some whocall GE imperialist, cite its production ofwar material, and try to kick GE recruit¬ers off campus. Some way to support thestrike! Besides the fact that most workerswould prefer not to have this kind of sup¬ port, and in fact, have refused to permitrevolutionary students on their picketlines, this approach does nothing to helpthe workers prolong their strike. And theworkers need help.The youth committee to support the GEworkers has taken a different tack. Thecommittee, endorsed by the internationalunion of electrical workers, the largestunion striking against GE, has asked theunion how students could help defeat GE.The committee is currently raising moneyon campuses across the country, to godirectly to the strike fund, and is organ¬izing picket lines and leafleting in supportof the consumer boycott, which the unionshave called against GE. Students acrossthe country will hold a student day of sol¬idarity January 17 in support of the GEworkers. In Chicago, an IUE spokesmanwill address a rally at Reynolds Club Southat 11 a.m., and then students will picket atMarshall Field’s in support of the GE boy¬cott. Perhaps the solidarity day will markthe beginning of improved relations be¬tween the labor movement and studentmovement.David Bensman, ’70, is a member of theYoung People's Socialist League.Editor: Caroline HeckBusiness Manager: Emmet GonderManaging Editor: Mitch BobkinNews Editor: Sue LothPhoto Editor: Steve Aoki, Phil LathropFeature Editor: Wendy GlocknerAssociate Editors: Con Hitchcock (Managing),Steve Cook (News), Chris Froula (Features),Mitch Kahn (Sports), Rob Cooley (Copy).Assistant Business Manager: Joel PondelikSenior Editor: Roger BlackStaff: Judy Alsofrom, Paul Bernstein, NancyChisman, Allen Friedman, Sarah Glazer, PeteGoodsell, Stan Goumas, Gordon Katz, SusanLeft, Gerard Leva I, Joseph Morris, Tom Moss-berg, Ellen Sazzman, Audrey Shalinsky, DavidSteele, John Stevens, Carl Sunshine.Photography Staff: Mike Brant, Steve Current,Richard Davis, Monty Futch, Ben Gilbert,Mark Israel, Jesse Krakauer, Jerry Levy,David Rosenbush, Paul Stelter.Founded in 1892.

In putting all theblame for this on the administration, how¬ever, the editorial ignores an importantfactor: the absence of “vitality” in our stu¬dent body.As the editorial itself implies, it is unrea¬sonable to expect the administration togrant students more power unless it is con¬vinced we have enough vitality and devo¬tion to wield the power effectively and re¬sponsibly. And when we look at the facts,we find one of the dullest, most lethargicstudent bodies in the nation.A glance at a few past issues of the Ma¬roon will show that the majority of newsstories deal not with student “extra¬curricular” actions and accomplishments,but rather with administration-faculty ac¬tions and matters, or guest speakers. Withthe exception of the Vietnam moratorium(now defunct) and the SDS “free-meal” ac¬tivities (reported ad nauseum), it is diffi¬cult to find any significant student actionsat all this year.In case you don’t value the Maroon, con¬sider some overt facts. The moratorium,while continually flourishing on othercampuses, is officially dead here; Barnett,the SG president, resigned midway throughhis first quarter in office; SG is notoriousfor “doing nothing,” and is elected by lessthan 30 percent of the student body; theTenant Union project, while flourishing onother colleges, never got off the groundhere; last year, the sit-in lost nearly all itsstudent support in less than two weeks, andthe ensuing “amnesty strike” in April waseffective only a few days; finally, as theeditorial itself admits, non-voting studentmembers of disciplinary committees in thepast have “resigned.”How is the administration to be con¬vinced that such dead-beat students, if giv¬en power and votes on disciplinary com¬mittees, would not quit from boredom, or,more dangerously, side mechanically withthe accused student point of view due to ahabitually inadequate assessment of the sit¬uation?If we want to get more power on dis¬ciplinary committees, we must stop lookingat their present make-up and rather con¬ceive of future actions and ask, “why not?’’Stan Goumas, 71McNeill and MaroonOne more comment on the faculty wives’show for this year and perhaps we canbring this silly discussion to a close. In asense, I feel responsible for the whole thingsince I was the producer of the show andselected the writers and approved thetheme.Mrs McNeill said, and I quote, “I refuseto consider the subject of women’s rights asanything but humorous (and possibly old-fashioned)”. If Mrs McNeill conveyed toyou the impression that she finds the wom¬en’s liberation movement humorous or fun¬ny then that is strictly her opinion and not■necessarily the opinion of all the other“faculty wives”. I do not presume to speakfor all these other women, but I do knowmany of them personally and most of themdevote a great deal of their time and ener¬gy to many causes in this community, in¬cluding women’s rights, civil rights, abor-Continued on Pag* ^“The Plan One Glimpse of AmericaBy Mark J. SolomonTHE OLD MAN REFERS TO IT only as “my farm”though he doesn’t own the land anymore and hasn’t seenthe place in six months, not since the welfare departmentthreatened to have him committed if he didn’t move intothe County Home. “He’s a little senile” the lady tells us,“and we had several complaints from his neighbors. Itwasn’t right for an old man like him to be living all aloneout there. When we brought him in he had an abcess onhis hand that could have poisoned him. And that housewas a scandal. It was filthy. A pig pen. No plumbing, noelectricity, he couldn’t tend for himself anymore and hewas just getting crazier and crazier out there.”He devours the newspapers and magazines we bringhim, scrupulously handing over the old pile in exchangefor the new. He is particularly fond, he says, of the NewYork Times because there are “more words than pic¬tures.” “They print poetry with the editorials,” he tells us,“poems about flowers and the land. I used to send themmy poems sometimes. They never printed any, but I didhave some letters from them thanking me anyway.”Visiting hours end at four. Always he glances at thelarge wall clock and, a few minutes before the hour, lap¬ses into silence. He never says goodbye, but stands lean¬ing on his cane watching as we leave. A tiny old man,barechested beneath his baggy flannel robe, silent andexpressionless except for the pale blue eyes which followus to the door and out of the building.Finally, almost after we have given up on ever doingit, they allow us to take him out for the day. “His healthis better,” the lady says. “And an outing may do himgood.” We are obliged to bring him back by four and notto let him eat anything. He accepts the news quietly,smiles and says he’ll be glad to get out of the building andout of the town.It is a fine sunny April day when we pick him up,almost two weeks after our first trip. He is ready to leaveimmediately. Greeting us impatiently, he is out the doorand stepping unsteadily down the muddy walk before wehave signed the day-pass book. We catch up to him at thecar door, where he waits politely, blue eyes and smileover the buttoned up collar of an oversized tweed coat.What kept you?” he laughs, “I was all set to leave with¬out you.”In the car, riding to the farm, he is mostly quiet. Helooks out at the countryside with interest. Commentingoccasionally about the ownership of a place, the locationof a long gone school house. “I’ll show you two” he says,“how we used to do it. Where we smoked the hops, andhow we stored it over the Winter.” Further from town weh^gin to pass open fields covered by new growth, quicksprouting poplars and scrub. His mood seems to changeand he mutters to himself, eyes to the fields. “Weeds” hesays, “all damn weeds.” M. L. Carlebach and Michael Lloyd Media, LtdThe county highway is macadam. We turn off it onto anarrower gravel and dirt road, which, without warning,becomes a still narrower strip of dirt and mud. The carbottoms over the humpbacked middle, rocks striking themetal underside and rolling out behind us. Five minutes ofrocking and banging and we arrive.We pass by the house, forlorn and boarded up againstintrusion and use. A single unshaded incandescent bulbhangs from the porch roof, jerryrigged and connected to anewly placed utility pole several paces down from thehouse. Though it is daylight the bulb burns, lighting un¬necessarily the sign posted beneath it on the wall of thehouse. “WARNING: NO TRESPASSERS. VIOLATORSWILL BE PROSECUTED.” The notice is signed by theFish and Game Association who, we were told, had pur¬chased the property for back taxes. “They waited to takeit over” the lady had told us, “until he was finally out.”“Anyone who wanted to buy it could have and they couldhave just thrown him off, but the boys felt sorry for himand they let him stay. I don’t think he ever knew that theplace wasn’t his all those years.”We walk into the barn and stand watching the cattle aneighbor is keeping there. A dozen head feed quietly onhay stuffed in feeder troughs along both walls. They are obviously well tended. Their stalls are clean and waterruns through a concrete basin on the floor. The smell andwarmth of the barn are mildly intoxicating. “That’s realgood,” he says, “Let somebody use the barn. She’s a goodbarn for cattle and I’m glad he can use her.”Walking through the back door we find ourselves on asmall rise, overlooking the fields. From the road to theline of hills at the border is perhaps a quarter of a mile.“It was a lot of plowing,” he says and moves off from ustoward the hills. Fifty feet away he stops and slowly sur¬veys the land stretched out before him. Then, head downfor a few moments, he studies the ground at his feet. Hishand goes to his face, wiping something and he turns backto face us. “Stop holding up the barn with yer backsides,”he calls out. “She’s stood this long without your help andshe don’t need it now. Come on over to the house withme.” Heeding him, we stop leaning against the barn walland follow down the incline to the path he walks towardthe house.Where the path winds behind the house the ground iscovered with tiny pieces of glass, shining cold and brightin the late afternoon sun. All the rear windows have beenbroken out and are now covered over with boards. As westop the glass crunches beneath our feet, and the sound isunpleasant. Beneath one window he stoops to pick some¬thing from out of the mud. It is a dented and rusted beercan and the sight of it disgusts him.Angrily he looks for someplace to dispose of it, butthere is none, and with resignation he lets the can fallfrom his hand. Absent mindedly he wipes his hand on hiscoat, and for the first time he looks tired again and out ofplace, an old man bent over a twisted wooden walkingstick.The ride back to town is longer for his silence. Per¬haps it was a mistake to bring him back out here. Per¬haps it was crueler than we knew. In the back seat he isalmost hidden within the folds of his coat, his old eyes arehalf closed and lost in the deep folds and wrinkles of hisface. He is tired and looks half asleep. We pass all thelandmarks without comment. The fields, now youngwoods, fly by and he doesn’t even bother to curse the“weeds.” Then, just outside of town, he seems to waken.He leans forward, his head over the seat to talk to us.“Now don’t tell anyone,” he says, “but next time I wantyou to bring some things with you. I’ll give you a list. I’llneed glazer’s points, a pound of putty, a glass cutter andsome plate. A man can’t live in a house with two by foursfor windows.”“The Plan” is an excerpt from a photographic andprose study of the new northern poverty of displacementby Mark Solomon and Michael L.

Malbranche Strikes BackHYDE PARK CAN BE a lonely place during winter break.It can also be a lonely place over spring and summerbreaks. It can be a lonely place between these periods.But over Christmas it’s usually worse. All school buildingsclose, there is nobody around, and you don’t have classesto take your mind off your problems, even if classes is oneof your problems. All you really can do is read, go tomovies, and listen to Nixon. There are, of course, otherthings, but that is about the legal limit. And when you aresubjected to such circumstances, you become involved inthem, and your paradymes become limited to your sur¬roundings, at least while your surroundings remain stag-nent at a given level. (I forgot to mention you can alsodelve into pop psychology.) Anyway, when you see mov¬ies, you tend to place them somewhere in a list, goingfrom the best to the worst. And when you listen to Nixon,you tend to do other things. But his speeches do get toyou, and set you in a way of thinking.This is the end of a decade, as you may have noticedby digging deep into media publications, and this givesyou a chance to publish your clumping together of neb¬ulous groupings. Putting all this together then, I amabout to give a list of movie reviews. I have chosen,however, not to give a list of the best or worst movies. Inlistening to Nixon, I have learned that it is not good to goto extremes. For this reason, I am going to give a list ofMiddle Movies for Middle Americans.(Unfortunately, an even number of movies were shotlast year. This has resulted in no movies being in theexact center. Therefore, the list starts with 5(4 on thegood side of "enter, down to 5(4 on the bad side of center.’One line, first, of clarification as to what a Middlemovie is. It is one you wouldn’t really go out of the way tosee, but once you are there, it is hardly worth the effort toget up and leave it before it is over.+ 5(4 EASY RIDER, This is a very happy, catharticmovie, which is very pleasant to middle America. Every¬thing works out well in the end. The hippies are killed,and the South is made to look bad. Chicago isn’t draggedinto the conflict at all. For this reason, it is very easy tokeep from becoming involved in the flick, and just sitback and groove on it.-j- 4(4 TOPAZ. Another in a long line of Middle works by Hitchcock. It is great fun to watch Hitchcock flicks, totry and guess when he will appear. It is similar in effectto watching Johnny Carson. In this flick, Hitchcock appearsin a wheelchair. This may have deep symbolic meaning,but it is not the sort of thing you should think about whilewatching a flick. It is based on a book by Leon Uris. Thatis something else not to think about while watching theflick.-f- 3(4 THE DAMNED. This is a very dark picture, andmay be hard to get involved in unless you have definitefeelings about Nazis and or queers. If you feel any wayabout either of the two groups, you might dig it. I foundhowever, that because of the darkness, it was hard to reada book while in the theatre. It was also hard to tell thedifference between red and orange gumdrops. The blackand yellow ones stood out, and I hate green, so I took allof them out before I went into the theatre.-f 2(4 LA FEMME INFIDEL. I fell asleep during thisone, so it must have been alright.4- 1V2 TELL THEM WILLIE BOY WAS HERE. I reallylike horror flicks, so I made a point of seeing this one byPolansky. However, it was the wrong Polansky. I didn’trealize that till the end, however, so I sort of missed whatwas going on. Watch out for that when you see it.4- 1(4 STALKING MOON. Another flick which I saw inthe wrong frame of mind. Peck is a cowboy, not an astro¬naut, and it is not science fiction. The white man beats theinjun again, so it is worth seeing. The Indian is particular¬ly hateful, so you feel good when the cowboy, with twelveslugs in him and a few pints of blood missing, is able toclimb Mount McKinley (another Middle President) in onehour and twenty minutes, using one hand, and then wrestlethe well rested Indian to death.— (4 ALICE’S RESTAURANT. Another good movie tosee if you are from Chicago, as it does not take place here.Hippies again get their comeuppance, as it proves thatthere Utopic visions are for shit.— 1(4 JUSTINE. This is not a flick of the book bySade. This sort of thing should be checked out well inadvance of seeing a flick, as it always leads to grossdisappointments.— ZV2 WILD BUNCH. This was shot in a very nicescreen ratio. It beautifully blends in greys, blacks, and whites, giving the effect of people walking across ascreen. It is a remake of the Chicago Convention in awestern setting. If one is not careful, one might get in¬volved, and so it is put on the side of middle. Ward Bondshould have been in it.- 3(4 DEATH OF A GUNFIGHTER. Someone namedSmithee was supposed to have shot it, but I have it ongood account that T.C. Fox took over direction of it mid¬way through. It shows the typical T.C. touch, so the rumoris very easy to believe. The gunfighter, a symbolic Weath¬erman, is killed at the end, as the title would seem toindicate. The fact that there is no tensipn involving theending, and since you want the guy dead anyway, it is avery pleasant flick to see.- 4(4 KING KONG ESCAPES. A Viet war flick, donein a sci-fi atmosphere. Some of the best filmed sequencesof any flick shot during the year. In the touching climaxKing Kong and the equally gigantic King Kong Robot fightit out to the death while the townspeople in the foregroundstare in horror out at the audience.- 5'4 THE MIDNIGHT COWBOY. This flick was abig disappointment. It is a remake of The Graduate, withRatso only Benjamin a few years later, after the fulfil¬ment of his dreams. Co-star Jon Voight bears a strikingresemblance to Kathrine Ross. Could this have been acoincidence? I doubt it.Finally, I would like to give my pick of the mostMiddle flick made during the past twenty years. This isthe sort of thing that very few movie critics are willing todo, but I am willing to risk my entire career. It is TheMagnetic Monster, staring the Magnetic Monster, and it isnot to be missed. Doc Films has steadfastly refused toshow it, and this is a gross unfairness. Nobody should bedeprived of the knowledge of its existence. If a hue andcry is raised, however, I am sure that they will give in toMiddle taste. Without a doubt, many of the worlds press¬ing problems would be solved if more people saw thisflick. It would be worth the effort to get it shown aroundhere. If Doc Films won’t, maybe the Administration will.Watch for The Broken Promise, a flick based on theChicago Conspiracy, with Peter Fonda as Abbie Hoffman,and Henry Fonda as Julius Hoffman.Frank MalbrancheTheUniversity of Chicago PressAnnouncesthe Winner of theLaing Prize 1969Music, the Arts, and IdeasPatterns and Predictions in Twentieth-Century CultureLeonard B.

The camera zooms into hisface as he begins to tell a fabricated story. We immediatelycut to a flashback that illustrates the chief’s remarks. Inthis film that is cluttered with flashbacks we suddenly arefaced with one of the rarest things in the movies — aflashback that lies. We know it is a lie because we haveseen the sequence in an “objective” section early on inthe film. Costa-Garvas continues using flashbacks illustrat¬ing events we have not seen objectively and what is mostinteresting is that we do not doubt the veracity of thesemoments. The reason is that the “good guys” and “badguys” have been clearly defined and we are quite happyto accept that the good guys will tell the truth and that thebad guys will lie. This allows Costa-Garvas to break aconvention and to still use that same convention imme¬diately afterwards.If this were merely a minor thriller, on the level ofthe anti-Communist films of the fifties or the anti-Nazifilms of the forties, then this lying flashback would merelybe a cinematic curio and not a problem. But Costa-Garvasinsists that his movie is a political one and so does themovie itself. After all, any film that flashes a title cardreading “any resemblance to any persons living or dead ispurely Intentional” and then goes to tell the story of themurder of a leftist leader by a police plot is certainlyasking for something. It is a political film then with near¬ly everybody neatly defined as either good or bad. Mem-Wednesday is W.C. Fields in Million Dollar Legs.(How do you do his accent in print?)

(Costa-Garvas has wisely given him noflashbacks yet it would probably have been most inter¬esting — since we do not know how far to trust him;would we trust a flashback of his?)But what are Z’s politics? Certainly they are not veryradical. The pacifists in the film get beat up upon andkilled, even when they greatly outnumber their attackers,yet when the most radical of the group suggests that itmight be time to stop being pacifist, (or at least to be¬come resistant in their nonviolence) the most moderatemembers seem to prevail. In fact, it is exactly what themoderates say that happens. Trust in the laws, it is ouronly hope. And despite the fact that the police itself hadcommitted the murder, it is a government lawyer whowrecks havoc upon the government. Is this then the politi¬cal lesson to be gained from Z — trust in the laws for aman of integrity will always pop up?And what about the aftermath of Z? Costa-Garvasclearly links the Lambarkis affair with the coup-d’etatthat has turned Greece into a blatant police state. If theactions of the film lead to a police state then clearly Z isnot meant to be exemplary. Had the film not divided itselfso neatly into goodies versus baddies) and this is where theflashback problem becomes important) then it would havebeen possible to discuss why a population let a coup de’tattake place. Besides the homosexuals, what of those otherright-wing workers who help the assassination take place?What do they feel, how do those pressures work in realterms, in the terms of their lives. Can we be made tounderstand them rather than simply condemning them?The hysterical sequences with the first informer’s motherand sister might have shown this, but instead Costa-Gar¬vas played it for low comedy and lost the chance of mak¬ing Z a true political tragedy.Costa-Garvas is one of the recent young Europeanfilmmakers who see scenes in terms of complete entitiesand this style further hinders the effect of his film. Costa-Garvas gives himself a situation and then tries to findwhat things might be going on in that situation. He thensplices them together in the most visually interestingmanner and that is the sequence. Opposed to this is theidea that single shots have semantic meaning — that eachshot itself is a point and that a sequence follows a certainlogic made up of these individual meaningful moments. Inthe latter case a sequence has a logic and a meaning. In aCosta-Garvas film a sequence never can go far beyondwhat is on the surface. In terms of Z, this means thatnecessarily the film will be divided into goodies vs. bad¬dies because the audience is not invited to go beyondsurface realities.Why then is Z getting the enormous popular reaction ithas? I would suggest that Z is more a sociological docu¬ment than a film. It is certainly watchable. (It would bedifficult for a film photographed by Raoul Coutard not tobe watchable) and it affirms values which many of ushave come to believe. Cops are bad — they murder pacif¬ists in Marshall Plan Greece and Black Panthers in Chi¬cago. Resistance to bad governments is good. When Z isapplauded it is not because it has given us new insights oreven because it is a potential organizing document — it isbecause it affirms in spirit that which the audience feltwhen they walked in.T.C.

Those who do know the songson this incredible album tend to be not a little bit hys¬terical in their devotion. A friend of mine once found her¬self walking down 55th street singing “Dark Illumination’’and was rushed at by a kid screaming “that’s Ivers, youknow Ivers!” It’s the kind of stuff that communion ismade of.Ivers can come on strong and it is something of aTHEATRE surprise that he did not choose to make this album, hisfirst, the kind that would immediately turn audiences on.He has sacrificed the force of direct recording for micro¬phone pick-up and, since almost every rock album we areaccustomed to records directly and utilizes overdubbing,the sound is a bit foreign. Once into the album, it becomesapparent that this was the only way to record this band,for the basic musical principle of this record is in¬tegration. To quote Ivers from the (unusually informative)liner notes, “There are layers of sound in this music ...and I try to maximize the tension between layers to getwhat I think of as a sophisticated, back-alley sound.Avant-garde textures are played against Chicago blues,and the blues against classical textures ... the horn sec¬tion of harmonica (Ivers), oboe (Henry Schuman), andbassoon (Steve Kowarsky) has a laughing, medieval soundthat cuts and scars at the melody ...”The effective result of this integration is to rid themusic of any vestige of gimickry. Joe Seale’s inter-modulatar is played like the musical instrument that it is,instead of the electronic noise flooding our ears.

It has all theoriginal music, which will be performed by members ofthe Collegium Musicum, and the text has been newlytranslated for this production by Lawrie Dean and DinahStevenson, carefully preserving all the oiiginal naive bu¬colic dirty jokes. It is utterly without redeeming social importance, and will probably be very funny, since thecast contains such local vintage hams as Don Swanton.Barbara Bernstein, Bob Heinrikson, and (perhaps) a fewsurprises.

Theyare purged of any sentimentality (Mayer, in a song notincluded in this album, once spoke of the “first, worstlight of day”). Mayer knows that song lyrics should notpretend to be poetry and writes with the difference well inmind. Each lyric is built around a simple dramatic situ¬ation. The title song (of which a section is included above)is a girl standing above a boy who has passed out —dead? from drugs? simply asleep? — it is not of con¬sequence. The songs reach out from these simple settingsto Mayer’s obsessions — an undiscoverable ProtestantGod, treacherous illness, and most of all the lights of anAmerican landscape. An example (from “Showroom Mod¬el,” ostensibly about the unveiling of a new car):Built the placards say toDecorate your drivewayPollinate your parkwayElevate your highwayLiberate your freewayAre these songs rock? I don’t know nor do I muchcare. Mayer started writing lyrics (and Ivers composingwith him) for his visionary theatre productions and Iwould venture to suggest that these theatre songs have agreater ability to stand by themselves than anything sinceCole Porter. They have the urgency which is the essenceof rock and the honesty necessary for all good things. Forall their sophistication they are straight ahead, speakingas much to the pelvis as the head.

I chose a mode of transportation out of the fantasy ofthe past: George Pullman’s rolling hotel, the sleeping car.I boarded the Baltimore and Ohio’s “capitol Limited”,ironically, at the Northwestern Terminal. Grand CentralStation, always an overstatement, had finally rotted shut.The six trains it daily spawned wandered over to MadisonSt. My roomette was a gunmetal grey cozy affair, res¬plendent in the modernistic stainless steel of the thirties.The small couch, wedged opposite the toilet was designedto prostrate itself to form a small but comfortable bed. Animpressive bank of buttons controlled every aspect of myrental box. Fresh air and porters could be summoned at ajab or flick. Multiple lights could be turned on in one ofseven different combinations. Foot pedals controlled thebasin water, and squashing a button turned the john into arunning malestrom. The luxury of some years past provedits ability to delight and to be luxurious in the present.The Capitol Limited (limited to six cars, these days)withdrew from the station several minutes late. It lostadditional time negotiating the gordian knot of steel thatbelts the city. The route was less of a grand processionand more of a fearful retreat past the visual atrocities ofa Mid-West gone mad, past the privately owned means ofproducing noxious billows and shining consumer goods.We were more of a scared, tail-tucked dog than a landluxury linner.Indiana went past one-half hour late and more timewas lost sitting in corn-surrounded sidings. The fourbands of steel from Chicago have given way in two, withnumbers of passing and standing slidings. Our train wasamong the unlucky standers in Indiana.My science fiction anthology proved a meager foil tothe fascination of my surroundings. Foreward of my com¬partment was the club-lounge car. I lurched into it andbecame e.ne of the few passengers to use it. My activitieswere limited to lounging; age withheld me from clubbing.I riffled through the thinning “Official Guide to the Rail¬ways” and marveled at the recent depot deaths. I alsoread the days papers: the blood on Fred Hampton’s copyof Lenin moved me back to a plateau of reality. The carrocked and bounced in deference to the perversities of thetrack. This mechanically nervous condition added little tothe concentration of an already distracted reader.As time and the train grew late, I pushed into thedining car, less of an eater and more of a Mecca-foundpilgrim. The complimentary meal was served quickly andthe excellent B & 0 food proved unspoiled by the years.The diner reaffirmed my faith in American capitalism’sability to absorb incredible losses.My stomach was quieted back in my room and I readinto Ohio. By that time, the hyperthyroid sleeplessness offinals week had reminded me of the need for some rest.The bed flipped down with advertised ease and I took abrief snooze. In an effort to see most of the things worthseeing, I left the shade up.The B & 0 runs east into and out of Indiana and Ohiovegetables, but the dinner table side dishes give way to aportion of the underworld that breaks through the earthnear Akron. The Youngstown Sheet and Tube exits steamand fumes in Dante-like fashion. The many sulfur smellsfind easy entrance into the air vents; the glass windowseems dissolved and I am among the underground struc¬tures. The visual vermicelli of industry continues onthrough Pittsburgh. One of Hell’s main levels, denoted asTones and Laughlin, pours out red steel and rolls it flatbefore the sleep-chased eyes of the 2 a.m. — surprisedpassengers. The blast furnaces feed the overly laden airwith soot and disgourge twenty-four hours of slag. A De-Mille army of men and locomotives scurry at the base ofthe monster in an effort to keep it fed and clean. TheMonongahela Inferno finally subsides to the lulling beat ofPullman’s sleep.Dying Cumberland wakes at seven. The sunkencheeked men and buildings stare out at our six car as areminder of a prosperous past. The station-hotel, a marvel<>f the earlier time is visually crushed by the elevatedfreeway next door. A small band of Appalachia presses itsway inside the train and the entourage is off in a flightalmost as fearful as the original run from Chicago.In ten minutes, the blue and yellow procession is rip¬ping off an even sixth. Man’s failure in Cumberland iseasily forgotten as nature’s success, the Valley of the Potomac draws nearer. As we speed East, one of B & O’ssuccesses is revealed: breakfast.The tracks do a windmill dance in out and aroundMaryland, and the two Virginias. Martinsburg is revealedas a railroad town left to its own devices. I have been onthis ride before and I wait for Harper’s Ferry and thejuncture of the Shenandoah and Potomac Rivers.The Santa Fe Railway boasts of the giant Raton Pass,and the Western Pacific is blessed with the Feather RiverCanyon. These are massively beautiful scapes, but the B& 0 achieves its beauty up the Potomac. The Valle/re¬veals a splendor without pretention and a peace thatbelies the war in residence at its mouth. ..One-hundred years ago. Harper’s Ferry was an indus¬trial center. The fast waters of the Shenandoahs wereobliged to turn man’s wheels. Steam did in the wheels andtime has almost done in Harper’s Ferry. The tiny townexists on its hillside by the grace of tourists and theirGrand Army of the Instamatic. Despite the souvenir shopsin sight, the town remains one of the reasons for fore-saking the dubious convenience of standby-flying.From my point of reverie, I am soon rushed into theouter areas of man’s blight. The plastic signs of Rockvillebegin the visual assault in earnest and by the time thetrain breaks the D.C. line, thoughts of the past hundredmiles have been curdled.Detrainment brings reflection on the transition fromMidwest to the East — and on the demise of a once-popular means of travel.Travel is uncomfortable at best. The body is stuffedinto small seats, is breathed upon by fellow stuffeds, issubjected to a procession of cardboard sandwiches and isfrequently deprived of its baggage at terminal points. Theplane just does all of this faster. A suitcase that goes on toMiami is back in four hours; the muscles of tortured backshave only a short time in which to knot, and at least youhave to eat only one meal on board.The automobile remains by far the worst means oftravel, being uncomfortable and deceptively expensive.The bus is to a car as a cattle-van is to a horse trailer.That leaves the passenger train. At once it is as slow asTHEATRE the car and it is often late. The food is expensive and thefellow passengers often conspire to subvert your comfort.The Capitol Limited was once two trains: one for Pull¬mans, the other for coaches. It had dome cars, librarycars and a procession of services to ease the back anddefuse the time. Thirty cars hae withered to six in fifteenyears. The extra cars have been amputated: the domes goto Florida and the lounges go to a scrapyard in Brunsw¬ick, Md. The ride is rough and if all of the passengerswere cabbages, they would be well rotted by the close ofthe ride.Despite the rheumatoid condition of such a means oftransport, the trip from Chicago to Washington remainsan odessey of sorts. You can see the land change fromcorn to industry to marble buildings and you can watchthe earth writh under the feet of America. The people in atrain must often resort to community. A half-sodden sailorbecomes a brother, and after a gradually relaxing conver¬sation with a sullen oil-truck driver from Cicero, he mayoffer you a cigarette. The ugliness and beauty so extantbetween Lake Michigan and the Chesapeake is revealedand not shrouded by clouds of billboards.There is no way to stop the national thirst for efficientspeed. We are intent on ramming through the skies in aneffort to “get there.” In the process, an old friend is fastapproaching its last run into Union Station.W. Z. MerbisctHerod: A Medieval OperaTHE PLAY OF HEROD, now being presented at the Dis¬ciples’ Church by the Allegro Conspirito, is an appealingspectacle from the medieval dramatic tradition. True tothe spirit of the original, it is conceived by its directorsHenry Beale (music) and Margaret Grant (drama) as aliturgical event rather than as an early opera.As sometimes happens with liturgy, the spectacle inthis production is predominant. Colorful, authentic litur¬gical garments worn by the angels compete in brightnessand hue with costumes worn by the Magi, the Virgin,members of Herod’s court, and some of the in¬strumentalists. (The sixteenth century armor worn by He¬rod’s knight is wrong.) More unusual and eye-catching isthe rough-built candelabrum which shuttles up and downthe center aisle to represent the star, dripping a shower ofwax, its pulley, like a tenement washline, protesting everytug of the rope.Another visual treat is the ingenious “house” of theVirgin, ablaze with candles, which is opened at appro¬priate moments to the gaze of the shepherds and theMagi. It is somewhat misconceived, for althought it has the air of architectural authenticity, the candles suggest avotive shrine, a bit kitsch, instead of a medieval image. Infact one of the shepherds goes to the shrine to light avotive candle An more appropriate gesture would be topresent rustic gifts.One is compelled to hope that the Virgin is clad inasbestos robes, for with flames so numerous the shrinesuggests the fiery furnace rather than a rude stable. Themarvel, beyond that of the miraculous parturition, is theabsolute immobility of Marita Kuhl, who plays the Virginwith remarkable fidelity to her own name, considering thecircumstances. She fortunately changes poses between ex¬posures: otherwise she risks being mistaken for a porce¬lain image. She even maintains her impassivity after join¬ing the choir for the final Te Deum. Technically this is anerror in directing, for in the gathered choir dramatic iden¬tities should be shed, and individual identities resumed.But perhaps Miss Kuhl is not a member of the choir.Musically the play is delightful. The vocalists aremodestly skillful, and the overall impression is happily ofa play performed by a choir rather than by individualtalents. At times, it is true, music takes second place tospectacle, especially in the processions. Medieval in¬struments are difficult enough to control in a formal con¬cert, and this control is somewhat sacrificed as the musi¬cians attempt to play while marching. Separated from oneanother, the instrumentalists have trouble with rhythmand coordination. Also, the logical distribution of ramong the vocalists result in a predominance of ‘among the shepherds and angels, making a sound v,light and spare, somewhat lacking in liturgical vig.By nature the liturgical tradition permits onl^dramatic characterization. This text of Herod is ot »ticular interest because it calls for a raging tyrant whostorms about and flings a book of prophecy to the ground.Henry Beale, who plays Herod, and Bruce McKibben, whoplays Archilaus his son, provide the raucous vocal his¬trionics which set this scene off from the calm joy foundat the place of the Virgin. Mr. Beale even provides a bitof melodramatic humor as his unspoken schemes for dis¬covering the whereabouts of the Child distort his face intogrimaces of malicious anticipatory glee.This is the second year in which this group has pro¬duced this play. The present production is even more live¬ly than last year’s, and should be a treat to veterans aswell as to newcomers. The Allegro Conspirito has nowestablished itself in the production of liturgical drama,and when this season is over, the group should be encour¬aged to add new medieval plays to its repertoire.Alan H.

What a Very Theatrical CampusWHAT WITH THE VICTORIAN QUARTER, the up-and-coming theatre program, and the usual onslaught of Uni¬versity Theatre activity, the Grey City Journal has beenbeseiged with notices of casting and other goodies per¬taining to actors. The Culture Vulture, who claims to dealwith all local theatrical events, turns up its beak when itcomes to the actors themselves. “I think all actors areanimals,” it squawks, and obstinately refuses to evenmention a casting notice in its flighty column. So, in sym¬pathy with all you “preening exhibitionists” (in the Vul¬ture’s words), here are some tidbits that might interestyou:Casting for The Pelican:Strindberg’s one-act play, The Pelican, is beingpresented the weekend of February 14th for the UniversityTheatre Experimental Weekend. Student director RichardKilberg needs an actress for the part of a 40 year oldwoman in this incredibly dramatic tangle about a middle-class Swedish family. Any actress interested should con¬tact the director at 493-4148.Rosencrantz and Guildenstern:A production of W. S. Gilbert’s one-act farce, Rosen-cranty and Guildenstern, directed by Annette Fern, willbe given February 20 and 21 as part of the Victoria’sWorld program. Annette is now casting the show (5 menand 3 women and a couple of walk-ons), and all actors, ortech people who are interested are invited to leave theirnames and phone numbers in Maroon Box 711. No generalaudition time has been set; instead, readings will be ar¬ranged on an individual basis at the convenience of theactor and the director. The cast is approximately that ofMUSIC Hamlet, although the style is somewhat different; Annette,at least, thinks it’s very funny. Copies of the script are onreserve in the Modern Language Reading Room; inter¬ested people are urged to make their availability knownsoon, since a first rehearsal should be scheduled forJanuary 25 or thereabouts.Acting Workshop:This quarter, as last, the UC extension division issponsoring a scene-study acting workshop once a week inthe Bergman Gallery. The Workshop is taught by SusanSpector, a professional actress with a Masters in Theatreand two years of study at the Berghoff Studios in NewYork behind her. Susan has acted off-Broadway, off-offBroadway, and in summer stock.The class meets from 7 to 9:30 on Wednesday eve¬nings. Although the first class was January 10 (yourfriendly GCJ is a little behind the times here) there willbe no problem for late registrants. UC students pay $10.00for the quarter, and all others pay $20.00.The workshop is devoted to the preparation of dramat¬ic scenes for class presentation to help in the developmentof techniques for building a character. The class is gearedto the student’s individual acting problems. Outside re¬hearsals with an acting partner will be required.Hip Hippolytus:There are still a couple of roles open in T.C. Fox’sblues version of Euripides’ Hippolytus, which will bepresented in the Reynolds Club Theatre during the fourthweekend of the quarter. Any neo-classicists interested inacting in this unusual production should contact the direc¬tor at University Theatre (X3581) or at 752-4497.Happy Birthday, Ludwig!1970 COULD BE A YEAR of many things but one thingyou can be sure of is the celebration of the bicentennial ofLudwig van Beethoven’s birth. All over the country or¬chestras and chamber music groups are rehearsing forperformances of the 5th, the 9th, the Moonlight, the Pathe-tique and all the others. UC’s own University Symphonyis rosining their bows and wetting their reeds for theirend-of-the-quarter production of the 9th.Downtown, Paul Badura-Skoda is performing the com¬plete piano concertos during March and April. Badura-Skoda, who just completed a recording of the completesonatas is artist-in-residence at the University of Wiscon¬sin. Price of the tickets for UC students is $10 for theseries of 7 concerts or $2 each. Tickets can be obtainedfrom the Information Office in the Administration Build¬ing.A non-credit course on the Beethoven Sonata will beoffered during spring quarter at the Downtown Centertaught by James Kidd.‘AlhambraFashions to make vonJed as beautiful ax von ’lllook Finely tailoredoriginals of domesticand imported fabric s.Mod.

I mean hasthere ever been one song that you play over and over andnever seem to get tired of; a song that you play as soonas you wake up and just before you go to sleep at night. Iam currently hooked on the song “Good Lady of Toronto”on the Fifth Avenue Band record. Its lyrics, tune, andinstrumentation lend a mood of easiness and relaxation.The song has an aura similar to that of the old Lo¬vin’ Spoonfuls. In fact, the Fifth Avenue Band is producedby two old Spoonfuls, Zal Yanovsky and Jerry Yester.They have infused the group with the sorely missed good¬time mood of the Spoonfuls’ music. But the Fifth AvenueBand is good in its own right. They wrote all of their ownmaterial and the songs are almost all good. Jon Lind’svoice is a combination of the smoothness of the Spoonfulsand the down-home flavor of the Band. Peter Gallowayalso deserves credit, both for his vocals and his com¬positions, which are the best on the album. Instrumentallythe Fifth Avenue Band is not going to win any medals, butinstrumentation is not that important to their overallsound; vocals and words fill the gap left by inadequatedrumming and bass playing. They rate a listen.SHADY GROVE by Quicksilver Messenger Service (Capi¬tol SKAO-39I):I like Quicksilver Messenger Service. Gary Duncan, amainstay of Quicksilver has left the group but he has beenreplaced by Nicky Hopkins, the well-known session manContributorsSteve Cook is Associate Netws Editor of The Maroonand a third year political science student in the College.W. Z. Merbisc is currently living in an ice cave off thePoint. He is a close associate of Frank Malbfanch and ismajoring in Serbo-Croatian.Alan M.

All interested personsshould contact the editor in fhe Maroon offices in lda_Noyes_HalL^__ whose piano can be heard on albums by the Beatles, Roll¬ing Stones, Jefferson Airplane and Steve Miller Band,among others. He gives Quicksilver a sound quite differentfrom must groups, and combined with the guitar of JohnCipollina makes Quicksilver an even tighter instrumentalgroup than they were before.The title song is a fine example of Hopkins’ addition tothe group. It starts off with an imaginative, surrealisticpiano solo and deep bass which blends into the body of thesong, highlighted by the strong guitar backing of Cipollina.The vocal in the song is, unfortunately, mediocre, which isthe one thing that has probably kept Quicksilver fromreceiving popular acceptance. They excell however, in itsinstrumental sections as in “Flute Sonte.” I highly recom¬mend this album.BOZ SCAGGS by Boz Scaggs (Atlantic SD 8239):Session men can make or break an album. A case inpoint is this record by Boz Scaggs, an ex-member of SteveMiller Band. Scaggs traveled to Muscle Shoals Alabama, torecord his album. The talent of the Muscle Shoal sessionis incredible. You have heard them backing up ArethaFranklin on all of her records, or behind Sam and Dave,Wilson Pickett, Cher and many other performers. AtlanticRecords has picked up these southern musicians and hasmade a huge success of the performers appearing in frontof them. Presently some of the session men are comingout into the front, including Duane Allman who hasformed the Allman Brothers Band; Ronnie Hawkins, asolo performer; and others.Boz Scaggs, however, should not be slighted in exam¬ining his album. He holds his own among these talentedsession men. His voice is first rate and the songs aremostly of his own composition. An interesting note con¬cerning this album is that it was produced by Jann Wen-ner, among others. Wenner is editor of Rolling Stonemagazine. Now what’s all this I’ve heard about journalistsremaining on the sidelines watching everyone else makethe action?LIVE DEAD by the Grateful Dead (Warner Bros. 1830):The Jefferson Airplane plays folk-rock, the Band playsfunk-rock, but the Grateful Dead plays hard, hard rock.Jerry Garcia is the master of the electric guitar. And Iwould assert that he is a better guitarist than any of thosepopular blues guitarists including Winter, Hendrix, Claptonet al. I realize that this is saying quite a lot, but listen toLive Dead before you disagree. He has Winter’s technicalproficiency but he has soul as well. He is as interesting asHendrix, but he is not showy. He is as moving as Clapton,but he is steady. “Saint Stephen” is just one song provingwhat I mean.The music of the Grateful Dead has never been ade¬quately captured cm any of their albums. LIVE DEADcomes closest to catching the raunchiness of Pigpen (amember of the group) and the power of the Dead elec¬tricity. But LIVE DEAD is uneven. The drummers occa¬sionally sound like they have fallen asleep, but they excelat other points.A suggestion might have been to cut this double albumdown to one record and to just have used the best sec¬tions. But the Dead, even when mediocre are better thanalmost anyone else.LIVE PEACE IN TORNOTO 1969 by the Plastic Ono Band(Apple SW 3362):Eric Clapton, how could you? For all of you who areunfamiliar with the Plastic Ono Band, I should explainthat they are our old favorites, John I^ennon and YokoOno joined with Eric Claption and other competent musi¬cians. This is not to call Lennon an incompetent musicianfor all loyal Beatle fans know that he can play and writevery professional stuff. But somehow when he matches hisconsiderable talents with the obscure talents of his wife,the end result is only good for a laugh. However, on thisalbum John and Yokohave decided to let us know thatthey are capable of producing traditional, as well as elec¬tronic music.Side One of the album is a live recording of the Ono Band’s performing debut at the Toronto Rock Festival.They play old-time songs such as “Blue Suede Shoes,” oldBeatle tunes like “Dizzy Miss Lizzie” and some of thePlastic Ono Band’s hits like “Give Peace a Chance.” Themusic is merely ordinary. Clapton cannot be heard onmuch of the record. Though he probably added some lifeto the set, I can’t delect it on the album. John sings on allthe cuts and sounds like himself, nothing more. Yoko,unfortunately, joins in on “Cold Turkey” and makesnoises that I am willing to swear cannot possibly be madeby a human being. Side Two is Yoko doing her thing againas she did on THE WEDDING ALBUM and TWO VIR¬GINS, which merely means that she whines and moansand screeches and groans. If that interests you, get thisalbum. If not, well...FAT MATTRESS by Fat Mattress (Atco SD 33-309):Out of the famous break-up of the Jimi Hendrix Ex¬perience comes Fat Mattress. Noel Redding, who used tosupply bass to Jimi’s strong guitar, has formed Fat Mat¬tress and in the process, switched to the guitar himself.Fat Mattress implies a mattress stuffed with money, sig¬nifying success in selling a lot of records. It seems thatFat Mattress was justified in being so egotistical.Upon opening a record done by a former member of theExperience, it is natural to expect hard, loud rock similarto that of the Experience. After listening to the record, itis obvious why Noel Redding left Hendrix. His associationwith the Experience was hampering his own considerablemusical talent. The music he has composed for Fat Mat¬tress would never have been used in the Experience be¬cause it is not wild enough for Jimi Hendrix. This is Hen¬drix’s loss and Fat Mattress’ gain, for the music is good.The other members of the group — Eric Dillon, JimmyLeverton, and Neil Landon — are all new to me, but theytoo are all good. Landons’ vocals are especially well done.My favorite songs are “I Don’t Mind,” a catchy tune, “SheCame in the Morning,” a song with good lyrics, and“Walking Through a Garden,” a Redding tune whichsounds like it comes out of a fairy tale.Hie Great PumpkinCULTURE VULTUREThe Vulch EndsContinued )rom Page ThreeSalesman, not surprisingly enough about a Bible sales¬man just opened at the 3 Penny Cinema.

I’m lookingforward to the ‘Three Penny Opera' inspring.”Pursuing an amateur interest in Englishis another of Billingsley's interests. “I liketo write, and I find language fascinating. Ihave sat in on some English courses here,such as basic Old English and Chaucer.‘Beowulf’ is great — it’s linguistically inter¬esting and good poetry, and it’s good to getclose to the people of the time.”He is also a ballad fan. “My head is fullof Scottish and English ballads. There aremany versions of any ballad, but I think theScottish are best. My interest in ballads iswhat led me to take up Chaucer and OldEnglish.”An ex-Naval officer, Billingsley has trav¬elled in many parts of the world, teachingor lecturing in France, Germany and Eng¬land under the Fulbright program, and alsoin Copenhagen and Saint Andrews, Scot¬land. He spent a summer in India — “astrange, interesting, and king of depressingcountry” — and while in the Navy, he spenta year in Japan. But he hasn’t quite had hisfill yet: “I think I’d like to spend anotheryear in England sometime.”In Japan, Billingsley took up judo — “agood way to get to know all types of Japa¬nese people” — and earned a black belt.Always athletic, he was a gymnast in col¬lege and still enjoys running a mile a dayand catching the tail end of the skiing sea¬son during spring break.Billingsley has been at the Universitysince 1958, after getting out of the Navy in1957. He became a full professor in 1967.“It’s marvelous here,” he says. “Fromtime to time we all get fed up with the cityand are sometimes tempted to leave it.

PICKING SHAPIROS: Do you prefer Pi¬casso or Miro?a public teach-out on the environmentproblems of species manBy Chris FroulaWhen the Captam came downstage at thaend of “We Bombed in New Haven” andaddressed tha audience with “I am Pat Bil¬lingsley. I teach mathematics at the Uni¬versity of Chicago”, many of them won¬dered “Is he really?” The answer is yes —he is. and more, for mathematics and dra¬matics are only two of his many interests.Born in Sioux City, South Dakota. Bil¬lingsley attended the US Naval Academyand Princeton University, where he “fellunder the spell of William Feller”, an emi¬nent mathematician, and became inter¬ested in his special field of math: statisticsand probability theory.In his research, he works on fundamentalproblems in probability theory, the purposebeing to clarify its mathematical structureand broaden its range of applicability.“Specific problems and applications, someto mathematics itself”, he explains, “lead PROFILEto better theoretical understanding, whichin turn leads to further applications.”Billingsley’s dramatic propensities ger¬minated early. “I was Robin Hood in thefifth grade,” he recalls. “Then, in highschool we put on an imitation Hellzapoppin.I used to participate in the faculty revels,which unfortunately are defunct.

Hell might be hotter,but Chicago’s got more smoke.”As we all know, Chicago’s air has notimproved with age. In fact, this city stinks.Nowadays, people go inside for a breath offresh air. Clothes and apartments get sodirty that they are almost impossible toclean; the “grey city” does not only referto a state of mind.We in Hyde Park are blessed with livingin one of the dirtiest neighborhoods in thecity, due primarily to the garbage releasedby factories in the large industrial area onthe far south side, Calumet and Gary.One of the local groups concocted tobattle air pollution, the Citizens RevoltAgainst Pollution (euphoniously known asCRAP) recently sponsored a petition cam¬paign against Commonwealth Edison fordirtying our lungs with sulphur smoke fromtheir coal-burning electrical plants. Con Edreplied by buying full page ads in the SunTimes explaining how they were trying todo away with the coal burning in favor ofatomic energy. Anyway, they noted, it wasthe heating fuels in apartment buildingsthat caused most of the pollution.In other words, it’s your landlords whoare poisoning your lungs. Well, that makessense. Everyone knows that landlords aredastardly fellows.A lot of people maintain that the worstpollution comes from automobiles. GM,who in the past have shown they are dedi¬cated to the safety of the American popu¬lace (just ask Ralph Nader), announcedyesterday that it has a plan for a pollution-free car. When will it be sold? 1980. Oh,well, that’s only ten years away. And wehaven’t heard from Ford or Chrysler yet.But I’ll bet their spending a lot more effortthinking up another animal to name nextyear’s stink wagon after than worrying over people’s lungs.The unappealing conclusion is that oursociety is irrevocably committed to pol¬lution just as it is committed to industrial¬ization, the “American Way”, and Spiro TAgnew. Ironically, the people who make thebig decisions about your life and mine liveway out in Winnetka and Lake Forest, farfrom the smokestacks of their factories,And when they come to the city to see “Hair,” they hold their noses and exclaim,“Oh, how can these city people stand to livehere! I’m so glad I don’t have to.”Charlie Brown, a self-proclaimed hippieand Boo Hoo of the Berkely Bag, had thesame idea when he was in Chicago twoyears ago. Also a self-proclaimed prophet,he foresaw the destruction of the cities inAmerica as a result of environmental pollu¬tion. “Get out of the cities,” he told us,“learn to live off the land, for the cities aredoomed!” He was trying his hardest to getout of Chicago, but, as I remember, it tookquote a while to raise the money to gas uphis hearse. I guess he made it; last heardfrom, he was in meditation atop a mountainin Wyoming. But both suburbia and hippiedom are acop-out. At least they seem that way whenyou’re stuck in Hyde Park for four years ofcollege. So, in the mean time, you can al¬ways get involved, if you don’t have any¬thing else to do. CRAP deserves support;their phone number is in the personals. Andbe sure to attend the College forum in twoweeks on “The Politics of Pollution”. Therewill also be an organizational meeting Mon¬day at Searle 161 for a course in environ¬mental pollution to be given spring quarter.Maybe there’s still hope, but in the mean¬time, don’t hold your breath.Steve Cook, (71), is the Maroon's (associ¬ate news editor.Faculty Comment on Observer PlanContinued from Page Onepressed concern that giving students ob¬server status on the Council “is ambiguousand raises expectations which cannot befulfilled. The final change sought by SGmust be having students as voting mem¬bers. Such a change,” he added, “would beanalagous to rewriting the US constitution,it would be extremely complex.”According to Peter Dembowski, associateprofessor in Romance languages and deanof students in the humanities, the Council ispresently debating its role in the Univer¬sity. “It is,” he said, “by itself undergoingchange and revision now anyway.”Although the Council has yet to make itsdecision regarding the observer proposal,SG is preparing further requests of theCouncil. At its next meeting, scheduled forSunday evening at 7:30 in Ida Noyes Hall,the assembly will consider petitioning theCommittee of the Council for open circula¬tion of Council minutes.

At that time a proposalwas passed by a large majority to seatobservors on the council and the board oftrustees. Since then, SG has been delibera¬ting on ways to impliment their proposal.Last quarter, when the issue of theobservor was raised at a meeting of thecommittee of the council, the elected ex¬ecutive branch of the council, it was re¬ported that the issue was dropped withoutany discussion. James Redfield, a memberof the committee, was alledged to havesaid that observors were unnecessary onthe council because faculty members couldspeak just as fairly and accurately onstudent opinion as could students them-selves. This accusation was countered bya written statement from Norman Nachr-tieb, spokesman for the committee of thecouncil, which explained the committee’saction.

He ended his speech withthe assertion that “black people will be freeor black people will level the earth in theirattempts to be free.” He received a stand¬ing ovation from the crowd.Richard BrautigansTrout Fishing The Pill voi'sus InWatemielonin America the Springhill SugarMine DisasterThree “Secret” Bestsellers...two novels and a book of poetry together in one house-likeDelacorte Press hardcover volume ($6.95), or separately,in three shack-like Delta paperbacks ($1.95 each).

Mrs McNeill clearlystated in her letter that the show wasstrictly for entertainment and no messagewas intended — on that point I must agreewith her. We were not “tittering” nor“mocking”. On what evidence do you baseyour assumption that all “faculty wives”are complacent, self-satisfied, ignorant,and go around ridiculing all these causes?Do you know all these women? Have youtalked to them and asked them their opin¬ions and found out what they think and doabout things like this? No, I think you havenot and if so your assertion is inappropriateand I resent it.It’s true — you do lack a sense of humor.If once a year we poke a little fun at some¬thing and have a few laughs, so what? Weare not making a mockery of anything oranyone in particular but are really laugh¬ing at ourselves — a quality which yourgeneration seems to lack. What a pity youkids have learned to fight so zealously for abetter world but never learned to laugh.As far as I am concerned, the whole issueof the Faculty Wives’ show is closed. I’msure we all have more important issues tothink about and work for.Gloria BeckerMrs Becker is the wife of Selwyn WBecker, professor of business.Attacks DayI object to Frank Day’s attack on theUniversity’s special housing supplement. Itis not that the attack was too strong; it isthat the attack was not strong enough.According to the University’s office of public misinformation, the Barnes plan wasendorsed by the student life committee.That is a lie by omission.I served on that committee when it con¬sidered the Barnes plan. The committee en¬dorsed the Barnes plan with changes (con¬veniently forgotten).The Barnes plan must be changed fromthe walled penal colony the University nowplans for its students to something livable.Maybe the faculty members responsiblefor this relocation camp would want to livein it; I suspect not many students will.John Siefert, ’71New Democratic CoalitionAbortion IssueRabbi Max Ticktin will be arrested andextradited to Michigan for conspiring tocommit abortion, when he returns to Chi¬ cago. We must not let the issue of abortiondie down with his arrest, but must carry onhis work and the work of others — coun¬selling women and educating the public.The legal system does not allow womento have control over their bodies and des¬tinies. It is none of the law’s business whata woman decides about a matter as person¬al as bearing children. It is absurd to re¬form the abortion laws. They must bedropped completely. As long as they exist,they must be broken.Further, abortions must be free for ev¬eryone. If not free, the poor suffer — theybear children they may not want at thattime, they become sick or sterile from bad¬ly performed, unsanitary operations; some¬times they die. At the same time we mustalways guard against those who encourageor enforce birth control, or abortion as a means of keeping down black and poorpeople.We are for the creation of a society inwhich individuals will want to live andwant their children to live. So that the rightto abortion will not mean genocide or bethe only alternative for women who wantchildren, we must also have free client con¬trolled day care centers so women may ful¬fill other needs and have a life away fromthe home, provide financial benefit andgive the children a positive experience in acollective situation.We are holding a meeting to discuss ac¬tion about this issue on Tuesday, January20, at the Blue Gargoyle, at 7:30.
