he Chicago Maroonlume 79, Number 40 The University of Chicago Friday, February 26, 1971Deficit will reach$6.5 million, saysLevi in messageSteve A ok i■ forDWARD LEVI: In a rare interview with the student media Thursday, the Presidentiscussed his “State of the University” message, the budget and other topics withiree students. The interview will be printed in Tuesday’s Maroon and broadcast overHPK Monday at 8 pm. The University will experience a $6.5 mil¬lion deficit this year, President EdwardLevi confirmed Wednesday, but throughcareful management, its academic ex¬cellence will continue to be its main asset.Speaking before the faculty senate in hisannual “state of the University” address,Levi explained that the University took intoaccount variable factors of endowment in¬come, restricted or non-restricted funds,enrollment, and federal funding in its $151million budget.In an interview with the Maroon andWHPK Thursday afternoon, Levi discussedthe budgert; situation, a tuition-deferralplan proposed by Yale University, hisopinions about higher education, the after-math of recent protests on this campus,and other topics.The interview, which will be printed isTuesday’s Maroon will be broadcast onWHPK, 88.3 FM, Monday at 8 pm. The textof the address will also appear in Tues¬day’s issue.This was the first major interview Levihas held with student media since his in¬auguration in November 1968.Levi said that the deficit will be metthrough a change in investment policy ofthe endowment that would place more em¬phasis on current income.These increased amounts of usable in¬come “should help us maintain ... the aca¬demic excellence which is our main asset,”he said.He reported that more than $31 million incurrent gifts and pledges was received in1969-70, some $250,000 more than the pre¬vious year.Levi acknowledged that he devoted muchof his speech to the budget “contrary tothe advice which I have received fromsome faculty colleagues I greatly admire.”V colloquia discuss changing media“Taking over the telecommunicationsmedia would be the most effective catalyst|for change in the country today.”Foster Chanock, ’74, program directorthe third Beardlsey Ruml colloquiumwhich begins today, believes that people in¬terested in changing the nature of Ameri-■ can society should get involved in changingTV.Chanock worked last summer for BlackEfforts for .Soul on Television, a Washing¬ton-based lobbying group trying to open uptelevision to minority groups.Working with Chanock on the colloquiumare Jackie McGlamery, ’74, and JerryDahlke, ’72.“It’s a topic,” says Dahlke of tele¬communications,” that is characterized bya lack of serious academic analysis.” TheUniversity, for instance, offers no courseson the social effects of electronic massmedia.Titled “Telecommunications and its Im¬pact on Society,” the colloquium comes ata time when revolutionary changes are tak¬ing place within the television industry.Recent developments in video tech¬nology, in particular the development ofcable television systems, will give the tubea greater role in everyday life.The diversity of control and ownershippossible with cable will make feasible com¬munity and minority controlled stations.Home sets receiving cable TV will be ablem pick up more than 100 channels, and thecheaper cost of cable transmission will freetelevision from the control of the big threenetworks. At the same time, dissent has been grow¬ing over the role current broadcast tele¬vision plays in the society.“People are realizing that broadcastersare not living up to their legal responsi¬bility to serve the public interest, includingthe diverse social groups making up thepublic interest,” Chanock said.All the colloquium speakers and panelistsare actively involved in changing the tele¬communications media.Anthony Brown, who will deliver the key¬note address tonight at 8 pm in Kent 107, ispresident of the National Association ofBlack Media Producers and executive pro¬ducer of “Black Journal,” which is shownin Chicago on WTTW.Brown has been an outspoken critic oftelevision’s policy towards blacks. In a re¬cent New York Times story, he said:“Right now, I think television is on thebrink of a revolutionary change. Blacks allover the country are rising up and chal¬lenging stations that aren’t meeting theirneeds, and the sta;ions are changing — notbecause they like black people, but becauseblack people, too, own the airwaves andare forcing them to change.”Panelists participating in the three pan¬els of the colloquium include William DWright, national coordinator for Black Ef¬forts for Soul on Television, who has orga¬nized community groups to petition theFederal Communications Commission todeny licenses lo stations nut serving thepublic’s needs; and Irving Kahn, presidentof Teleprompter corporation, who wasrecently indicted for bribery in his efforts to open Johnstown, Pa to cable television.Also, Ralph Lee Smith, a member of theSloan commission and a national expert oncable television; Gilbert Mendelsohn, amember of Unity House and the CitizensCommunications Center in Washington,who recently published a critical study oftelevision ratings; and Scott Craig of NBCin Chicago, who has won nine Emmyawards for his specials, will participate inthe panels.“We really want students to come to thepanels and participate,” said Chanock.“The pebple have to understand the broad¬casting structure, the government struc¬ture, and how the FCC laws have to beenforced to protect the public, not thebroadcasters.“This colloquium affords an opportunityto educate students to the nation’s primaryinformation source. The potential for stu-d e n t oriented programming is reallythere,” he added.The colloquium opens today at 4 pm witha reception for participants and students inCobb hall’s Bergman gallery. Wine punchwill be served.Following is the full agenda for the two-day colloquium:Today, February 264 pm: Reception in the Bergman gallery, Cobb hall.8 pm: Keynote address by Anthony Brown.

We are interested innew knowledge.He continued, “I am suggesting that re¬search and undergraduate instruction arenot natural enemies, that the attempt toexplain can be a helpful contribution to thescholar’s own understanding.“This University, in part because of itssize and balance, provides a favorable set¬ting in which to share with graduates andundergraduates the craftsmanship of dis¬covery and recognition.”TV PRODUCER TONY BROWNBeardsley-Ruml keynoterQuaker house draft counseling serves manyBy JIM HAEFEMEYER“The spread of draft counseling is cer¬tainly one of the most alarming changes inAmerica as it relates to the draft rightnow,” Selective Service director CurtisTarr told a house special subcommittee onthe draft last summer.“The people in our state headquaxterssay that this effort is spiraling in a threat¬ening way .. . There is a concerted efforton the part of many people to wipe out thedraft by emphasizing in the courts the non-legal nature with which we do our work.”During his first year as draft director“Doctor Tarr” (as SSS publications callhim) has used a heavy dose of public rela¬tions to try to heal the gunshot image thatGeneral Hershey left with the system.Tarr has expanded local boards and in¬stigated a centralized computer informa¬tion bank, to smooth the gait of the limpingsystem. He has used a “youth advisorycouncil” to give a rosy complexion to hisown policy proposals.And he has hired as public informationdirector a 23-year-old Air Force ROTC ca¬det named Timothy Kelly, who seems to bepushing the idea that draft calls very soonwill fall to zero, and who has sent to highschools a biased and perhaps inaccurate“Curriculum Guide to the Draft.”All in all Tarr has tried to turn draft-agemen away from draft-counseling by saying“the system works.” He must turn themaway, because draft counselors such asthose at the Hyde Park Draft InformationCenter in Quaker house are the backbone ofa new and growing anti-draft movement.Reaching to large numbers of menbeyond the white middle-class college stu¬dents that have always opposed the draft,the new anti-draft movemenet underminesthe system by working within the system —at least up to the point of induction.Instead of refusing to cooperate, thesemen either seek the help of counselors ingaining deferments or conscientious objec¬tor (CO) status, or they turn perhaps mis¬takenly to lawyers who promise to free weany-Sue LothQUAKER HOUSE: Students discuss draft counseling here. The anti-draft movementhas moved towards working within the system at least up to the point of induction.them for a fee on the grounds of proceduralerrors common in the draft system.Since last spring and Cambodia, moreand more men have come for help to Quak¬er house, 5615 Woodlawn, perhaps the onlydraft counseling center in the city that op¬erates evenings.According to Ben Blaney, a chemistrygraduate student who directs the center, atleast 30 or 40 men per week come to see acounselor and at least another 15 or 20come Wednesday nights to see a doctor.In addition, Blaney and another personcounsel Thursday nights at Kenwood highschool in cooperation with the local Parent-Teacher Association. And Pat Burg, a Midwest Draft Coun¬seling Center counselor, operates a newNational Black Draft Counselors organiza¬tion from Hyde Park. Blaney said that sixor seven black counseling centers haveopened on the south side, and he hopeseventually to turn Kenwood high counselingover to blacks.“In general our increase has been inpeople from the community coming in,”Blaney said. “We’re getting more peoplefrom the south suburbs, and more peoplefrom the black communities and other mi¬nority groups.“Three or four years ago when this cen¬ter was started by the Hyde Park Anti- Draft Union, there seemed to be morepeople coming in for counseling who wereinto resistance, but for some reasonaren’t getting that kind of personmore.”“Now we are getting more of the type ofguy who wants to work within the systemand yet not go into the military, ratherthan the person who is more interested inmaking his actions more political and well-known, say by burning his draft card.”Blaney said that many who come in fromblack and other minority communities areseeking 3-A hardship deferments or 1-Yphysical deferments, but a few seek COstatus.None of the centers’s counselors couldsay for sure how many of their counseleessucceed in beating the draft, since theyrarely return to the center after they gettheir deferments, or give up and go into themilitary.Blaney said that while the center makessure counselors are qualified, it does nottell them what to say. And if counselorsdiffer, they differ most in their pessimism.,or optimism about beating the draft.Marki LeCompte, an education graduatestudent and one of the more experiencedcounselors, warned against the kind of op- vtimism spread by lawyers who say theybeat the system every time. |“If a guy starts early enough and works ; -,hard enough the chances are about 30 per-cent that he’ll get a deferment,” she esti-'mated. ;||C|“A lot of these lawyers who say they *-’have a perfect batting average only take a?the cases they can win,” she said. “There,are an awful lot of incompetent draft law-^tayers.”She advised that lawyers are often unnec-*;$?essary, and that draft counselors can best ">tell men when to go and where to go for a fgjlawyer.Another counselor, law student Frank ru!Easterbrook, said, “It’s almost always posyifsible to beat them in court.” •-Easterbrook said the procedural errorsContinued on page 3 iFAT CITY AGAINWHAT IS FAT CITY?A dance, festivity, flea market, fair and whathaveyou.Two bands, freebies, games, people. 1300 came to our Icy Wall dance last quarter.WHAT CAN I DO?As an individual you can come and enjoy yourself, April 10th.Or, if you enjoy organizing and running things, you can offer to set up and run a game, concession, freebie, or otheractivity at the FAT CITY that night.

He can also refer men to specialistsknowledgeable in writing letters to the sys¬tem.Blaney said that after losing a court casebased on procedural errors, “They’ll cor¬rect the procedural error and go on fromthere.”However, Easterbrook said that it is rarefor them to run a man through the millagain after he has won in court.The counselors differ, too, on their optim¬ism about those who do not appear for in¬duction. The Selective Service System inChicago reported last month that as manyas one-third of those called did not appear.Easterbrook said that Chicago, along with Berkeley, Rochester, and northernNew Jersey, is unusual in the number ofmen who fail to appear.He said that locally, of 100 who fail toreport each week, only 10 to 15 are in¬dicted. With the current court backlog, aman will not face indictment for about twoyears after he fails to appear.Blaney said that many of these men gofree until they apply for jobs and their po¬tential employers realize their draft statusis faulty.LeCompte said, however, that failing toappear is definitely “not a viable alterna¬tive,” since those who fail to appear willeventually be arrested.Then, she said, it becomes more difficultto defend them than it would be if they hadmade a statement of conscience, such as arequest for conscientious objector statusand a formal refusal of induction.“With the reduction in deferments,people are trying to ignore the system orthey’re having nothing to do with it,” shesaid. In many cases that she has comeacross this indifference is a ‘denial of real¬ity.’ ”In any case, no one should rely on gener¬alizations like “see a lawyer and you’re out” or “just don’t show,” because despitewhat Tarr thinks, dealing with the system— yet protecting your rights — is so diffi¬cult that men need individual and indepen¬dent counseling. and proposed new legislation which wouldprohibit the Army from engaging in anyfurther domestic spying.In addition to the threat such activitiespose to the civil rights of individuals and tothe integrity of official decision-making,Mikva charged that such surveillancebrings discredit upon the Army itself andadds to the “crisis of confidence” in Amer¬ica.The second-term Congressman disputed arecent assertion by Secretary of the ArmyStanley Hesor that the Army’s spying ac¬tivities were necessary because of their re¬sponsibility to protect the states from do¬mestic violence.“If that is to be the justification for do¬mestic snooping, the Army could similarlyjustify arresting and trying criminal sus¬pects in order to relieve the crime problemthreatening our urban areas,” he said.“The Army is not a national police force— yet. It must not be allowed to becomeone. The country either runs the Army orthe Army runs the country,” Mikva stated.In his statement yesterday, Janowitz out¬lined the historical perspectives behindarmy intelligence. “The main purpose ofmilitary intelligence, as it evolved, con¬cerned foreign and external militaryforces,” he stated.“In principle and practice, the armedforces were to exercise surveillance overtheir own members only.“However, during the last half century inthe absence of clear directives to the con¬trary, from either the President of theUnited States or from Congress, there hasbeen a gradual, persistent and long-termintrusion of military personnel into domes¬tic surveillance and police work,” Janowitzobserved.Janowitz proposed additional research bemade on the extent of surveillance activi¬ties plus Congressional legislation clearlydelimiting the boundaries of military in¬telligence activities.SFA denies appeal by CORSOThe student-faculty-administration (SFA)court has denied the appeal of the com¬mittee on recognized student activities(CORSO) in its suit with the National Stu¬dent Association (NSA).The court decided last month that COR¬SO could not cut $1150 from NSA’s $12001968-9 budget, and must provide funds fordelegates to go to its convention this sum¬mer.CORSO argued in its appeal to dismissthe case that the nominal plaintiff for NSA,John Siefert 71, had resigned as a memberat the time of the hearings, and thereforehad no standing to sue.It also charged that court sessions werenot announced, that participants were notfully notified of the issues and charges, andthat the court failed to publish copies of its majority opinion.The court refused to dismiss, on groundsthat such an appeal had to be made within10 days of the original filing of the suit,according to rule three of SFA court.The court in its original decision hadagreed with NSA’s argument that such adrastic cutback violated the student gov¬ernment constitution which specifies that“CORSO shall be guided by previous activi¬ties budgets and shall not initiate majorchanges which would be detrimental to theexistence of any organization.”According to Skip Landt, director of stu¬dent activies and member of CORSO, anew appeal is being drafted. It will againcharge that Siefert was not in a position tosue, and therefore that the suit was techni¬cally never filed.WE'D LIKE YOU TO JOIN OUR RAPIDLY GROWING FAITHORDAINED MINISTERWITH A RANK OFDOCTOR OF DIVINITY'And ft thoM know fho troth and tho truth thatlmake you free' John 8:32We wont man and woman of all oges, who believe o* wa do, to joinut in tha holy march for Truth.

DIANA LEIFERAssistant Business ManagerState of the UniversityThe bad news is finally in, and to no one’s surprise, the Universitywill show a $6.5 million deficit this year, and one is likely next year.As if this isn’t bad enough, tuition is going up $150 next year andfor the next few years after that, reports that the budget will be slashed10 percent rumble ominously in the background, federal grants arebeing cut left and right... the list could go on forever, and it is enoughto make one think that the University is on the brink of collapsing intoa heap of gothic rubble.The facts are not encouraging, but in context, they are not sobleak, either. Private universities across the country, even those oncethought invincible, are experiencing budget deficits, trimming and cut¬ting as they struggle to make ends meet. At Columbia in New York,for example, the deficit will reach more than $15 million this year, andmany say it is only a matter of time before Columbia becomes a stateschool.Likewise tuition costs are skyrocketing at many colleges, withYale having proposed a $350 tuition hike and another $150 rise inroom and board. Chicago is unfortunate (if that term may be applied)in that its tuition level is comparable or just below similar private uni¬versities, but this is still small consolation to the students who are try¬ing to get an education, especially in a time of recession.Deans are juggling their budgets, trying to hold on to as much asthey can as pressures to cut back mount. Everyone is anxious to knowexactly how the deficit will affect them, something no one has beenable to detail at this point.The state of the University message contained no new or startlingknowledge. Rather it was a hard recital of long-dreaded facts, putforward in as succinct and direct a manner as possible.Obviously the University cannot handle a deficit every year andstill hope to survive. Programs will have to be cut, faculty membersmay have to be “terminated,” and costs will continue to rise.Going through hard times is a mixed blessing in that it forces theinstitution to re-assess its priorities and give special emphasis to thosethings vital to its “mission” of intellectual excellence.As a result the Unversity may emerge a better place, its valuesstrengthened and its identity certain. We are hopeful and confidentthat it will do so.TV colloquiumAcademics have long been loyal to the print media as a primarysource of information. Indeed, print has an integrity uncharacteristicof the newer forms of electronic media.Nevertheless, 70 percent of the population depends on televisionas an information source. Television as an entertainment form dominatesthe lives of most people in the country. Recent studies imply that newand different modes of thought and perception are the result of tele¬vision. Children and the urban poor are particularly dependent ontelevision for information about society.Blacks, students, women, and other maligned minorities have astake in gaining access to the video medium. New changes in technologyare opening up television to these groups, but it is important that theyfirst understand television’s limitations and possibilities.Fortunately, this year’s Beardsley Ruml colloquium is bringing tocampus some of the people who have been actively involved in reform¬ing television to respond to the needs of a changing society. The collo¬quium has been designed to provide as much student participation aspossible.We urge you to take some time off this weekend to check out thespeeches and panels taking place on campus A fun agenda appears intoday’s bulletin of events.4/The Chicago Maroon/Febrnary 24, 1171 Jackson says Supreme Courtwill give him a favorable rulingAfter his speech a week ago, Contribut¬ing Editor Carl Stovall and Editor SteveCook interviewed Rev Jesse Jackson, di¬rector of Operation Breadbasket, in theBlue Gargoyle.Monday, the Supreme Court refused tohear his plea for an emergency ruling onhis suit appealing the Illinois board of elec¬tion commissioners’ decision requiring 58,-000 signatures on Jackson’s nominating pe¬titions. Therefore, Jackson will not be onthe mayoral ballot April 6.Wearing his “mayor’s uniform’’ — asnazzy blue suit — Jackson would not com¬ment on his campaign plans, but he hadsome interesting things to say about uni¬versity students.Mr Jackson, are you now definitely inthe running for mayor?At this point all we are saying is that westill seek to qualify. In seeking to qualify, ifthe Supreme Court rules in our favor, andwe believe that it will, we will have laid thegroundwork for a new political party,which is our real concern.Where to now, in terms of organizing athird party in Chicago?Where to now is to get into the streetsand organize that constiuency that feelsalienated from both the Democratic andRepublican organizations, and that wouldbe concerned enough about change to signup.Today we are already getting petitionssigned by the thousands, a good indicationthat once people are willing to put theirnames on a piece of paper and to risk thatkind of public identification, they are will¬ing to publicly stand up and demandchange.Do you foresee this as a long, long fight?Well, any struggle worth winning is along, long fight. But it could very wellcome from our taking it over or it couldcome from our being able to take the partyin power out of power. It can come one ofseveral ways.Do you think the kind of student organi¬zation Eugene McCarthy put together canbe effective in changing Chicago politics?Yes, if we can stop students from escap¬ing. That is, the students here want to fightabstract things.For example, students can get allaroused about Laos and North Vietnam,but can’t get excited about North Kenwood.Now that is a contradiction. To get all firedup about North and South Vietnam and de¬mocracy, but not get excited about de¬mocracy in North and South Carolina —that is rather contradictory.Over there you can fight moral abstract¬ ions against the American imperialist enemy. But here, some of these students aregoing to have to fight their mommy anddaddy, but they won’t really change thecountry. They are not willing to go that farThey think that being rude to their par¬ents constitutes a revolution. But it reallvdoesn’t.Would you like to see all the constitu,encies of independents like Aldermen Sing¬er, Despres, Cousins and your constituencytogether in a formal political party?Well, that’s what we’re in the process oftrying for formulate now. I think thepeople’s convention was a movement inthat direction.Do you consider the students at the Uni¬versity of Chicago to be ultra-radical interms of Chicago politics today?Well I was once a student here and I readabout it in the Maroon, but I didn i seemuch evidence of it. I mean I didn’t seethem getting (Alderman Claude) Holmanout of the 4th ward, and part of the Univer¬sity of Chicago is in the 4th ward.I did not see them working too vigorouslyto really support TWO. Those who wereagainst the University and those who wouldpay lip service to TWO remain in the Uni¬versity living off all of its prerogatives dayin and day out. So I am just not too com¬mitted to falling prey to revolutionary rhet¬oric.I mean the fact is that if this Universitywould use 300 or 400 students in Kenwood-Oakland to knock door by door, apartmentby apartment and begin to deliver candi¬dates who represent the best interest of thepeople, I would consider that radical. Any¬thing short of that is just rhetoric.Will there be a place in the new thirdparty for students who are serious aboutbringing change to the city?Well of course it will be designed for per¬sons who want to bring changes, and con¬crete changes. You see, not only changes ina house but in housing, not changes in whatcolor money is going to be but in the distribution of money. You understand what Iam saying?To me, see, change in the final analysishas to be practical. You go through a rath¬er infantile notion of abstract, moral, heav¬enly kind of change. In the final analysisCastro has to deliver a new agriculturalsystem. He has to run Havana. He has topump water. He has to build houses andhospitals and provide accomodations.Now the notion that once was of a newCuba glowing with lights, where you did nothave the imperialist hogs and pigs and go¬rillas has to finally give way to concretework.No black house progress madeNo progress has been made between theUniversity and the Organization of BlackStudents (OBS) in negotiations to form anAfro-American cultural center with a$295,000 University grant.Charles O’Connell, dean of students andWalter Walker, vice-president for planning,said they plan to meet with OBS memberssoon to discuss other possible ways of allo¬cating the money if no agreement can bereached on the cultural center.The University had previously offered tobuy the Church of Our Redeemer, 5558Blackstone and to turn it over to OBS forrehabilitation into the cultural center.OBS members claim that $295,000 is aninsufficient amount to sufficiently developthe Redeemer into a cultural center andproposed that the University buy the Tenth Church of Christ Scientist, 5610 Blackstone,which OBS members said could be con¬verted with a grant of $225,000 to $240,000.The University rejected the counter pro¬posal saying “it was not prepared to nego¬tiate about anything except the Redeem¬er.”Walker told OBS members that the Uni¬versity was assuming an obligation to theneighborhood to bring the long vacantRedeemer up to city code standards.The idea of a black students’ culturalcenter was endorsed by the Harris com¬mittee in 1968, a committee appointed bythe council of the University senate to aidin expanding the University’s commitmentto blacks.The need for a center was restated byblack students last spring.Ruml colloquium schedule setContinued from page 1Skornla, professor of radio and television at Universityof Illinois, Circle campus; Robert Pauly, former presi¬dent of the ABC radio network; and Robert Bennet, pro¬fessor of law at Northwestern university.11:30 am: Press conference In the second floor lobbyof the Center for Continuing Education, 1307 E 60th St.1:30 pm: Panel on "Cable and the CommunicationsRevolution."

SG hopes to submit one ormore plans to a student referendum byfifth week of the quarter.Under an activities fee plan, studentswould pay one fee to attend events spon¬sored by student organizations.Problems to be resolved include theamount of the fee, the mechanism for col¬lecting it, the allocation of the funds, andthe decision as to which events and organi¬zations would be covered.SG representatives plan to clear their fi¬nal plans with the University adminis¬tration before holding the referendum. Thisapproval would be necessary if a proposalprovided for collection of the fee by theUniversity bursar’s office.Dean of students Charles O’Connell has said that he is not opposed to a voluntaryactivities fee in principle, but would wantto know the details of a plan before endors¬ing it.Consumer conferenceA conference on consumer class actionswill be held today at the law school, 1111 E60th St.The conference, which will include amorning and afternoon session, will give in¬terested people an opportunity to explorevarious aspects of class actions for con¬sumers.Philip Schrag, consumer advocate in the New York City office of consumer affairs,will open the morning session, 9:30 am to10:30 am, with a speech entitled “Class Ac¬tions: The Need for Additional Legisla¬tion.”Arnold Shure, Chicago attorney and alaw school alumnus, will ask, “Is the Ex¬perience In Stockholder Actions Relevant?”The conference will resume in the after¬noon, 2 pm to 5 pm, with a speech by Ferdi¬nand Zeni, associate general counsel, Mont¬gomery Ward and Company, Chicago, on“Consumer Class Actions — Experience ofDefense Counsel.”The conference is open to the public with¬out ticket and without charge.BULLETIN OF EVENTSChicago Premiere!Robert Bresson’sAU HASARDBALTHAZAR Doc FilmsFridayFebruary 267:1549:30Cobb Hall$1Alain Resnais'GUERNICA Friday, February 26DISCUSSION: Bag-lunch discussion, "Uganda" withMrs. Paula Foster, African Studies Grdup, Cobb402, 12 noon.SEMINAR: Geophysical Sciences Seminar, "Atomicarrangements in inorganic crystals: geometry orchemistry?', speaker Dr. Paul Schlichta visitingprofessor University of Southern California, room101 Hinds Laboratory, 4 pm.BEARDSLEY RUML: Reception in Bergman Gallery,4 pm.FLICK: Au Hasard Balthazar and Guernica, Quantrell,7:15 and 9:30 pm.DISCUSSION: "Mass Communications: A New Form ofCultural Imperialism?", with Robin Lester, CrossroadsStudent Center, 5621 Bfadkstone, 8 pm.BEARDSLEY RUML: Keynote address by AnthonyBrown, Kent 107, 8 pm.MUSIC: Church and Chamber duets, 17th-19th cen¬turies, Ellen Harris, soprano, Margaret Murata,mezzo-soprano, Ruth Solie, piano, Lexington Studio,8:30 pm.THEATRE: Peer Gynt, Mandel Hall, 8:30 pm.

For five weeks now I’vepoked around in several different li¬braries and talked to professionals,professors and amateurs in an effort toreach some understanding on the sub¬ject. I have learned that the only thingcertain is that cable TV will be upon usin ten years. How heavy it will be is amatter which defies forecast.Cable TV or CATV (Community An¬tenna Television), was implementedbefore 1950. Its initial purpose was toassist outlying, valley communities inshagging good television signals. Alarge hilltop antenna was constructedand the transcribed TV signals weresent down in the valley on cables. Thecables were run under the street or onthe phone poles, and could carry threeto five channels. Later in the chain ofdevelopment, a CATV operator boughthimself a camera and used an emptychannel for continuous weather. Assoon as he built a studio, he added newsand a talk show, and made the firststeps towards cable-originated pro¬gramming. More businessmen beganchecking their wallets and going intothe lucrative battle. One man spent$500 and 15 years making $22 million inCATV. Technically creative people be¬gan playjng at their workbenches tocome up with increased channel capac¬ity systems (capacity is now above 20,soon it will be above 40 channels; 300channel systems are not faroff.) Someone else thought of rebroad¬casting FM signals, and several groupsstarted to work on man-to-computer systems that could move a mountain ofinformation into the home. As CATVdevelopes, installation of urban sys¬tems seem increasingly plausible. Rur¬al areas need improved reception, butcities need improved markets, in theeyes of business sharks.The land rush has begun, as manyindividuals and interests rush to gettheir hands on cable franchises. In thetwenty years since 1950, the number ofcable subscribers has gone from 14,000to 3 million. Installation fees are $10and up. Monthly rates are $5 and up.That CATV revenues are so greatcomes as a surprise to few, especiallythe cable owner. The rate of returnis usually enough to have CATV sys¬tems in the black in seven years, andthe rip-off potential in this industry ishigh. Perhaps the big operators havebeen given just enough calbe to chokethemselves on, for last month, IrvingKahn, president and chairman of Tele¬prompter (one of the top five CATVsystems) was indicted on charges ofconspiracy to bribe members of theJohnstown, Pa. City Council in order toobtain the city’s cable franchise. Othercogs of government have been oiled ina similar manner in an effort by cablecompanies to obtain fat little fran¬chises.Because the opportunities for plun¬der are so high, people and govern¬ments have turned their attention toCATV. The Federal CommunicationsCommission is responsible for thebroad control of CATV. The granting offranchises is left to the state and localgovernments. CATV is a common car¬rier operation and is being handled bygovernments as though it were autility.Cable TV has created a whole seriesof interesting legal effects. CATV oper¬ators don’t pay the regular TV stationsfor the shows they receive and dis¬tribute to their subscribers. The Su¬preme Court has ruled that within theframework of the current copyright legislation, CATV translation of broad¬cast signals does not constitute aperformance; the cable apparatus isconsidered an extension of the sub¬scribers’ television sets. All partiesagree that CATV systems ought to paysomething for the privilege of runningbroadcast signals, but all parties in¬volved have failed to reach a mutualagreement on the copyright problem.CATV can import distant signals andoriginate its own program material.That could put a dent in the currentmarket operations of a lot of TVstations. The FCC has reached but atemporary decision in the distant sig¬nals matter, though its intent is toallow CATV operators to import out-of-town broadcasting with the consent ofall parties involved.The FCC has already managed toblow the whistle on some of the moreoutrageous business combinations in¬volving CATV. The telephone com¬panies and the networks have alreadybeen told that they can’t stick theirfingers in the cable pie. Despite thewrath of the government, though, atleast some control has been retainedthrough parallel ownership of cablestock. No action has been taken onlimiting CATV ownership by othermedia. Newspapers, conglomeratesand other far-reaching informationgiants have their hands in the cablefuture. Teleprompter, one of the coun¬try’s largest cable operations, is con¬nected to Howard Hughes. Hughes whoalso owns broadcast holdings, elec¬tronics firms, and Hughes Aircraft willsoon begin construction of Canada’sdomestic satellite system. The handsContinued on Page FourBy David AffelderDustin Hoffman and Faye Dunaway laugh in “Little Big Man.”PENN’S TALEof Big MenThese days, if you’re going downtown to see apicture, the choice isn’t difficult. Arthur Penn’s LittleBig Man (at the United Artists) should be seen,discussed and enjoyed by everybody. Penn’s pre¬vious directorial credits include Alice’s Restaurant,Bonnie and Clyde, The Chase and the MiracleWorker; Little Big Man is a honorable addition to thecareer of one of the most important filmmakers tocome out of the past decade.Little Big Man, adapted by Calder Willinghamfrom the comic-epic novel of Thomas Berger, openswith an interviewer asking 119-year old Jack Crabbabout Custer and the West. Crabb, violently im¬patient with the questions, volunteers the mostextraordinary story of his life.Crabb (played by Dustin Hoffman) was or¬phaned by Pawnees and adopted by Cheyennes at ayoung age. From that point on, he bounces back andforth between the humane civilization of the Indiansand the institutionalized insanities of the whiteworld. He never can accept, nor be accepted by,white society, but then the late nineteenth centurywas not the most fortuitous time to be an Indian.Crabb’s story is the tallest of tales, but emotionallyits exaggerations have more integrity and truth thana century of false legends and inaccurate reporting.Indian life is made gentle and decent and verydifferent from the white manner of living. The Chief(played with great dignity, poise, and humor by ChiefDan George), who is Jack’s adopted grandfather,calls the Indians by the epithet, “human beings,” andwe must agree. Custer and his legions are less brutalthan stupid and then finally totally mad. Throughoutit all, Jack Crabb tries out many roles: mule skinner,scout, shopkeeper, gunfighter. But he can never quitesucceed in integrating himself into white society andalways returns to the Indians. Although the political content of the film, with itsbalanced and biased favor of the Indians, is impor¬tant, it is not nearly so central to the film as it wouldbe if the film were seen in isolation. But havingfollowed the thematic development of Arthur Penn, ittakes on more significance as a stabilizing ex¬pression of Penn’s views of the relationship betweenthe individual and society.The particular tension of Alice’s Restaurantresided in the knowledge that an alternative societymust be formed for those who reject “normal”society, and in the observation that the alternativesociety set up in the Stockbridge Church wasinadequate. In Little Big Man, Jack Crabb is restlesswithin Indian society. He wants to make it as a whiteman, but he slowly realizes that to be an Indian is thebest he can do. But the Indians are doomed to die, andJack to live, and to survive the annihilation of whathe values, to live 119 years with the remorse of asocial and political void.The film is episodic, as all of Penn’s recent filmshave been, and seems to confirm Penn’s essentiallack of interest in lighting (the photography ismediocre). His disjunctive cutting, where the imagesare always slightly ahead of the ideas, brutallydriving them forward; is sometimes hard to take, but it forms the basis of his interesting visual style. Asusual, some of the ideas in the picture are dramatizedwith paralyzing literalness, and Faye Dunaway inparticular is very arch as the minister’s insatiablewife. The comic bits always seem a beat or two off,but in its cumulative effect, Little Big Man isnonetheless a triumphantly funny comedy.Little Big Man lacks the tension of working outinternal contradictions that made Alice’s Restaurantso involving, and the romantic excesses that madeBonnie and Clyde so forceful. But there is passion,and anguish, and grace in Jack Crabb’s tale. Mantries desperately to belong to a community, in safety,in conscience, and in the full wholeness of his being.And while he struggles painfully to define himself asa social being with a private moral sense, Deathwaits in the background, as the Law, the Cavalry, asHuntington’s chorea. Penn completely alters theending of the novel when old Grandfather goes up tothe mountains to die, and the change is a brilliant andexciting one. The last shot of the film shows JackCrabb in his 119-year-old makeup, silently staringforward, never having found that day his Grand¬father called “the good day to die.”— Myron Meisel•lung-hingI♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ a new Chinese-American Restaurant in fHyde Park ▲1435 E. 51st St. 4667-1316 ♦Speciai Chinese Brunch Service every Saturday & ^Sunday from 11 to 2 pm. 50* per plate, items on this tlist are.

This manner (of Ibsen’s)continues, with occasional lapses into comedy, as faras Peer Gynt, in which, recognizing its own limita¬tions and pushing lawlessness to its extreme limit, itachieves a masterpiece.”Monstrous . . . heroic .. . lawlessness .. . mas¬terpiece. King Lear. Faust. Moby Dick Peer Gynt.Such loose, baggy monsters offend reason, the clearhead, the intellectual’s ironic detachment. It’senough to make Aristotle writhe in his grave, asTolstoy and Hawthorne writhed when reading thefirst and third of the above exhibits. You don’t seeproductions of Faust very often (has Part Two everbeen produced?), nor of Peer Gynt. To produce it,with amateur actors yet, is an act of courage andfaith, and the large cast and crew of UniversityTheater under Annette Fern’s direction deserve ourpatronage and admiration.Oh, it’s not without flaws, to be sure! Some of theacting in the minor roles is painfully amateurish;those silly trapezoidal movie screens are onlyoccasionally effective; the set isn’t as functional as itlooks; the continuity between the scenes is vague(fade in — fade out music would have helpedestablish fthe sequence of dream-logic); the crowdscenes lack spontaneity; the ending fizzes ratherthan stuns (Peer lies in Solveig’s lap, as the mother-lover softly sings, “I will cradle thee, I will watchthee. Sleep and dream thou, dear my boy!” — thisdoesn’t come off); and at the first Friday perform¬ance (the one being reviewed), the appreciativeaudience was not graced with a curtain call (C’monPeer, where’s your chutzpah?).But don’t stay away for these judgments! Do quaffa draft of the unfettered Ibsen in his pre-closet days, Roger Dodd and Gail Hartmann star in UTproduction.Ibsen the romantic, the mantic, the seeker of Self, theunabashed dreamer! And there are things in thisproduction that call for praise.First, Roger Dodd’s Peer is (it almost has to be) atour de force. He turns Ibsen’s impossible demandson an actor into the possible. Not a great perform¬ance, but a good one (and some times, most of thetime, it is better to be good than great). Then, MarniLipke’s Ase, though at times a bit too petulant andharsh, seemed to be an audience favorite. GailHartmann’s Solveig is inspired casting: lovely,patient, slightly mysterious; Ibsen’s Solveig. EstorGreenfield’s minor role of Helga is just right. AnnBeckerman’s Green Woman, John Tsafoyannis’sMe Ramains UnknownThe Me Nobody Knows never should have beenmade into a rock musical. At best, it’s an inferiorHair. The show, which just opened at the CivicTheater, is based on the writings of ghetto schoolchildren in New York collected in book form byStephen Joseph. Herb Schapiro had the unfortunateidea of making the book into this dramatic enter¬prise.Hair, at least, had some good songs but lyricist WillHolt and composer Gary Friedman have concocted alargely forgettable brew. Except for a couple ofpieces — “How I Feel” about the difficulty of gettingthrough life and “Sounds” which compares theexperience of hearing a concealed rat to the ex¬plosion of TNT — the songs are annoyingly in¬sufficient. You begin to feel as if something mightdevelop and then either the song is over or apromising melody disappears into a collection ofinnocuous notes.Both Hair and The Me Nobody Knows attempt tomake the separate actors on stage an ensembledesigned to bring home a message to the audience.Hair wants us to believe youth is a good thing; TheMe Nobody Knows wants to show us that ghetto kidsare real people. Neither of these platitudes strikesme as very promising material for a play. Of courseghetto kids are real and it’s too bad that The MeNobody Knows doesn’t spend more time showing ussome of these real people in significant relation toeach other rather than attempting to galvanize thetender original work into a sock-it-to-me extra¬vaganza.With this kind of material, the actors don’t havemuch chance. Beside the lack of character and plot inthe play, the casting director had problems withauthenticity. Seeing twenty-year-old professionalactors trying to be elementary ghetto school kids isjust silly. Joe Rifici, Julienne Ciukowski, and Jo AnnBrown are very able and help give the evening somesparkle but their glitter works in spite of the show.Given that the actors were not called upon to act,director Robert H. Livingston’s efforts seem a bitsuperfluous.The only thing that captured me was the staging,created by Claire Dunham, Stan Goldberg andJeanne Livingston, alias Mopsy. A multi-level setwith a striking mixture of projected slides and filmswas great to look at even if it resembled Harlemabout as much as Radio City Music Hall does.The next time somebody molests a perfectlycharming book by trying to cash in on Hair, I wish hewouldn’t.—John Del Peschio Kelly Richardson belts out song. Mountain King, Dan Abraham’s Thin Person, andparticularly Donald Swanton’s Button-Molder alsoare well done. Costumes and props and make-up —all good. Troll masks and Wedding Pig beautifullyugly. And, given the overwhelming difficulties, MissFern’s direction is, all in all, worthy. Not great, butgood.So much for the debits and credits. What of the playby the man who inspired, at the beginning of theirwriting careers, James Joyce and George BernardShaw?It’s a dream-fantasy of a man, a character, who,lacking a model of action (his father symbolicallydies young, like Captain Alving in Ghosts), ex¬periments with a variety of astonishing roles in hisdesire to discover and appropriate his true self — the“Gyntian Self.” The Troll-King tells him that for menthe motto is, “To thyself be true,” but for trolls(supernatural beings somewhere between elves anddemons) the motto is, “To thyself be — enough!”Peer doesn’t like this, but, as the Button-MOlder tells-him toward the end of the play, he has lived like atroll. When Peer asks him how selfhood is possible,the answer is, “To be oneself is: to slay oneself.” Andthis odd, Teutonic Vulcan gives him the bad newsthat his life’s reward is that he must be melted downin the casting-ladle, along with all the others (thecompact majority) who did not achieve selfhood. Heflees the Button-Molder in terror. No self! All thelayers of the onion peeled away, with nothing at thecenter! He is with the Opportunitists in the Vestibuleof Dante’s Hell, “those souls who in life were neitherfor good nor evil but only for themselves . . . They areneither in Hell nor out of it. Eternally unclassified,they race round and round pursuing a waveringbanner ...” (Ciardi’s comment). “No word of themsurvives their living season. Mercy and Justice denythem even a name. Let us not speak of them: look,and pass on.”In desperation he seeks an answer for hissalvation. He stumbles on Solveig’s hut, and she hasbeen waiting for him. They are now old. He hasreturned Home. She must have the answer! “Wherewas I?” he asks her, and she answers, with amazinggrace, “In my faith, in my hope, and in my love.”—John R. HoltDANCEAlvin Ailey: Diverse StylesAlvin Ailey’s American Dance Theater, which willperform at the Auditorium Theater on March 3 at8:30, has high ratings with both American andinternational audiences. However, for the pastthirteen years, the company has been on precariousground financially while standing on firm groundartistically in their residence at the BrooklynAcademy of Music, which they share with the MerceCunningham troupe and the American Ballet Com¬pany.Ailey is a very stylish choreographer who brings atouch of Broadway to modern dance with hiselaborate costuming, large numbers, varied music,and popular dance idioms. His use of modern,classical, primitive, rock, ethnic, gospel, and Negrospiritual elements result in choreography with adistinct quality. His repertoire also includes works ofother choreographers, such as Lucas Hoving, Mi¬chael Smuin, and Pauline Koner.Ailey no longer dances, but when he did, about nineyears ago, he turned me on to modern uance. He ha&some smashing dancers in his company. For ex¬ ample, Judith Jamison, his principle dancer, is a 5’10” statuesque beauty who last year performed a soloin “Masekela Language” with dazzling technique atthe Auditorium Theater. Dudley Williams has beencalled one of the greatest modern dancers, andMiguel Godreau is a small dynamo of dancing energywho entrances his audieces.A new piece on Wednesday night’s program is“Flowers” which recently premiered at the twomonth-long Dance Marathon at the ANT A Theater.It’s a rock piece, based on Janis Joplin’s death. Onecritic has called it one of Ailey’s lesser pieces, whileanother has called it a “tour de force.”There are student coupons available at the Maroonoffice, Ida Noyes 304, $1.25 - 2 off the regular prices of$2.50 - $10. (Too bad the Auditorium Theater doesn’thave $2 student tickets for any available seat —“student standby” — like the ANTA, City Center, andBrooklyn Academy in New York and the ChicagoDance Festival in the Civic Theater here.)—Paula Meinetz ShapiroFebruary 26, 1971/Grey City Joumal/3ARTBergmanExhibitsBlack ArtI must admit that I feel slightly ill atease reviewing an exhibition entitled“Black Experience.” Since I have hadexactly no Black experience, beingneither Black nor the product of aBlack-oriented environment, I confessmy inability to judge the exhibition onthis level. The Grey City Journal willbe glad to convey the views of anyonewishing to reflect upon this exhibitionfrom a better vantage point.As explained by Keith Morrison,chairman of the department of art atDePaul University, “Black Ex¬perience” has been designed not toshow similarity, but divergency ofBlack artists. The philosophy behindthis divergency is that there is no suchthing as a common “Black style.”Neither is this exhibition considerednecessarily a “representative” show ofBlack artists. Still, it attempts to bereasonably typical. This exhibition is ofBlack artists because it is recognizedthat the overwhelming number of exhi¬bitions exclude Black artists. The ironyof this fact is that exclusion of theBlack artist is a greater loss to the Black art in Bergman Gallery: sculpture and painting from Black experience. Photos by Scott Carlsonpublic than to the Black artists them¬selves, who will be artists whether ornot a non-black audience is fortunateenough — or educated enough — to seetheir art.The show features the work of RalphArnold, Ausbra Ford, Barbara Jones,Geraldine McCullough, Bert Phillips,and Nelson Stevens — all collegeteachers in the northern Illinois area.Phillips and Stevens are exhibitingpaintings, Arnold and Jones are repre¬sented by prints and McCullough andFord have contributed sculpture.Jones and Stevens are members of the Black artists’ group Afro-Cobra,and they have also exhibited postersattempting to create ethnically mean¬ingful imagery of Black experiences inAmerica. Miss Jones explains that thishas been designated as LiberationMonth and therefore members of Afro-Cobra are trying to reach people togive them a strong perspective onBlack art. She feels that her work canand should be appreciated by allpeople, but that she especially hopes toreach Black students with her educa¬tional artistic message.Ford, the sculptor, finds that shows such as this are a necessity for the .Black artist, since his work has notgenerally been included in regularexhibitions. “There have always beenBlack artists,” he adds, but no one *knows you exist or that you havesomething to say as an artist. Youreally do begin to feel like an invisibleman. Shows such as this will make *people more aware. It says, ‘We arehere; stop and look.’ ” Works from theshow will be in the Bergman Gallery(418 Cobb Hall) and in the Cobb Hall ,showcases through March 20.—Susan LeffCable TV in Chicago: fF/io’s Got the Money?Continued from Page Onestretch across the table many times;the linked arms hold a tight, inter¬locking circle of communications facil¬ities. This is only one of many trustspectors that must be faced, defaced orignored by people and governments.The city of Chicago has decided thatit is time to have cable TV. It hassolicited and received 16 bids to oper¬ate the proposed franchise. The citycouncil has held hearings, often closedand always confused. The hearings area typical Chicago performance; onlysix of the applicants have testifiedbefore the public. The other ten haveyet to be heard from; among theirnumber is giant Teleprompter. Thisfranchise means many silvers to thelucky winner, so there is'every reasonto believe that money will pass underthe table. Pacific Southern Cable hasspent $200,000 to obtain an all-citycable franchise. They have never laidan inch of wire and have retainedMayor Dailey’s son-in-law as generalcounsel. Arthur Rubloff, largest land-owner in Chicago, is more modest in hisexpenditures and desires. He justwants one-fourth of Chicago to call hisown. Concessions to the public will be made, in an effort to keep everyonehappy. A small, but adequate numberof public channels will be set aside, andthere will be some agreements onminority programming and hiringmade.The Chicago situation is more cloudyand confused than one might expect.The city is under fire by severalcitizens groups, including the BetterBroadcasting Council. The BBC wouldlike to see CATV treated like a commoncarrier utility and would have thefranchise supervised by a separatecommission. Such a system couldeliminate installation fees. Publicchannel time could be leased for under$25 an hour. Black Efforts for SjuI inTelevision is another citizen lobby thathas been present on the Chicago scene.They advocate increased minority pro¬gramming and participation, as well ascommunity ownership of the cablefranchise. Campaign against Pollutionis also on the case, to prevent what istermed “pollution of the airwaves.”The champion source of confusion isa question of jurisdiction. Though theoutcome is clear, all the actors in thislittle battle must execute their roles foras long as possible. There is a lot ofmoney in this thing for the government that grants and oversees the cablefranchise. Once the system swings intooperation, the lucky government gets afive to ten percent cut of the profits.Because this particular franchise willbe in Chicago, the Democratic machinewants to handle the matter. Becausethe franchise is in the state of Illinois,Governor Ogilvie wants his Republicanadministration to handle it. The sameweek in January that the Subcom¬mittee on Miscellaneous Matters of theCommittee on Finance held its hear¬ings for the city council, the IllinoisCommerce Commission was runningits own side show of cable hearings.Needless to say, Mayor Daley will win,for he can get at least half of the StateSenate on his side.There are a lot more problems thatare now plaguing or will certainlyplague the city in reference to CATV.So far, I haven’t been able to get closeenough to define them. Cable TV willrise in Chicago, but the first ten yearsare going to be ridiculous. As a matterof fact, cable development in thiscountry is going to be an exercise inabsurdity. There will be trusts to bustand bribes to pay. The cries of citizenswill be heard, but they will be heededonly slightly. It is close to useless to forecast the •outcome of the present cable turmoil.Many absurd future casts have beenmade, based on imagination and notreality. (When FM radio was opened \up, many thought that the airwaveswould change.) Television was sup¬posed to be an educational tool. It is,but its power to teach has been used to *show people what to buy, how to killand what to eat. CATV will exist, but noone can say what sort of form it willtake. Certainly the next few years will ,be hectic ones. I might add that AT&T,Edison and other massive utilitiesoperated in an outrageous manner formany years. Radio in this country was Jblown from the start, for no govern¬ment wanted to wade in until it was toolate. Increased government control ofCATV will lead to the chaotic develop- tment of the industry. Lack of control bygovernments and the people will lead tothe monolithic development of cableTV. ,The Beardsley-Ruml colloquium ontelecommunications this weekend willfeature many leaders in CATV.

PnrU Rlv/rl955-2229RECORD!Poco and Mama Cass Come AliveDeliverin' by Poco (Epic KE 30209):Live albums have become quite pop¬ular in the past year. There is a vibrantfeel in live recordings that studiorecorded material lacks, but at thesame time, they lack the professional¬ism and tightness that the studioprovides. At least that was what Ithought until I heard this live Pocoalbum. Singlehandedly, Poco has prov¬en that live records need not be unpro¬fessional or shoddy.Most live records play up the au¬dience, even to the point where theperformers sound distant as if youexample, the Rolling Stones record,Get Your Ya-Yas Out. Poco’s livealbum, however, sounds like a studiorecord with the excitement added in.The instruments are mixed perfectly.(Although every now and then a bassline is too loud and the drums are a bitoverpowering in a few lead-ins.)There is no back-up noise, no hissing,no static on this record. All you hear isPoco. Most groups that rely heavily ontheir vocals have trouble duplicatingharmonies on stage. Poco, however,sounds better live than they have in thestudio. Richie Furay sounds particu¬larly good on Deliverin'. His high tenorvoice is perfectly controlled.Poco have included seven new songson this album, another distinction for alive record. Two of these, “Kind Wom¬an” and “Child’s Claim to Fame” aresongs that Richie recorded with theBuffalo Springfield, but after thesenew versions become better known,these songs will be associated withPoco. They embrace this material,developing it far beyond its previousrenditions. Of the new songs, myfavorite is “C’mon”, a typical Pocobouncer with a great vocal job byFuray. The five other songs, fromPoco’s previous two albums, couldeasily be called Poco’s Greatest Hits.But Poco does not approach this mate¬rial with the thought of recreating theiralbum successes. Rather, they redo allthe songs, expanding on them, makingthem more exciting than before.Much of the success of this albumrests with Rusty Young, Poco’s pedalsteel and dobro player. Accomplishedand inventive, he makes the in¬strument sound like another voice inPoco’s intricate harmonies, thenmakes it sound like an organ, or aguitar. He does not fall into the“twang” usually associated with pedalsteel guitars.This very well may be the best liverecord ever released. What a nice thingto happen to such a nice group! Listento Poco. They’ll make you feel happy. Dave Mason and Cass Elliott (BlueThumb 8825:When it became known that DaveMason (who used to record with Traf¬fic, jammed with Delaney and Bonnieand released a great solo album lastyear) was going to join forces withCass Elliot (Mama Cass), late of thesaccharine top 40 hits and televisionvariety shows, groans were heard fromevery corner of the rock press. “Sellout,” they accused. After all, DaveMason was under-underground andMama Cass is the Kate Smith of ourgeneration. Well, hipper-than-thoujournalists, get ready to eat thoseaccusations, for Mason and Cass makebeautiful, happy music; “joyous” isthe word Cass has used to describe herfeelings for the sound, and I happilyagree.Perhaps everyone merely forgot thatCass Elliot is a great, great singer. Inher days with the Mamas and the Papas she cooed and crooned, both inlead vocals and back-up harmonies, sowell that she became the trademark ofthat group. In the last two years, shehas not produced anything to talkabout, but with this record, Cass re¬turns to the forefront of the musicscene.One of my biggest objections to therecord is that Cass is not used enough!This album seems to be a Dave Masoncreation with Cass doing a lot ofharmony work and singing a few leads.But her back-up work is like nobodyelse’s. She sings hard and loud in herharmony work and builds the songsalmost frantically. Her voice has justenough treble in it to sound excited;you get the feeling she really caresabout what she is doing. And when shesings lead, her voice falls into aeasiness and charm that is very remi¬niscent of “Dream a Little Dream”,perhaps her biggest single hit with the Mamas and the Papas. But the brassi¬ness of “Words of Love” is alwayspresent somewhere in the back of hervoice. As the songs develop, she be¬comes more and more brassy until, atthe climax, she sounds more like EthelMerman thatn Kate Smith.Dave Mason is a much better singerthan I had thought. He reminds me ofStephen Stills at times. He captures therelaxed roughness of Stills, but doesnot fall into Stills’ tendency to slur hiswords and use repetitive chord struc¬tures. Mason wrote seven of this al¬bum’s songs and while they are notmasterpieces, they are all more thanadequate. My favorites are “Sit andWonder,” “Pleasing You” and “TooMuch Truth, Too Much Love,” songswith Mason singing lead but whereCass has prominant vocal work.The vocals are so impressive on thisalbum that it takes a few listeningsbefore the instrumentation pops out atyou, but when it does, you will begin tohear nuances, riffs and chording that issuperb. Mason plays guitar, Paul Har¬ris plays keyboards, Russ Kunkel is ondrums and Bryan Garo plays bass.Together they play unobtrusively, butneatly. These songs do not often breakfor instrumental sections, but whenthey do, Mason and Harris especiallyshow themselves to be fine musicians.Dave Mason and Cass Elliot growson you. I hope this alliance lasts a longtime for Dave Mason seems to bepushing Cass Elliot on to new andbetter ground and with a voice likehers, you can never hear enough.— The Great PumpkinA View of Warholian TrashJane and Paul and Joe The hero of 1971’s first really impor¬tant movie is an impotent junkie: JoeDallesandro in Andy Warhol and PaulMorrissey’s Trash (at the Carnegie).Trash is a uniquely Warholian screw¬ball comedy for the ’70’s. All of thecharacters are oddballs, and the film’sdialogue contains a quotient of verbalwit equalled only in the comedies ofPreston Sturges.Joe’s heroin habit has made himunable, unwilling, and/or uninte¬rested in having sex. Trash is apicaresque movie, consisting of Joe’sencounters with people he tries to getmoney from, or people (like a crazedgo-go dancer, Geri Miller, who playedthe same role in Flesh) who want tomake it with Joe.The movie has three sequences thatCulture VultureL>aNCEThe Inbal Dance Theater of Israel.

The kid, played by JohnnyPutnam, is fantastic and the reparteebetween him, Holly and Joe is hi¬larious. After this, Joe breaks into theapartment of a socialite, Jane Forth, torip off some stuff to sell. But they’vejust moved in. “There’s nothing here tosteal,” Jane whines in her memorablemoan. She tells Joe she’s from GrossePoint, and Jane and her go-getterhusband wind up watching Joe shootup. “This is an educational ex¬perience,” hubby reminds Jane. Thisbrilliant sequence alone is a funner andmore incisive picture of an upper-middle-class Manhattan marriagethan all of Diary of a Mad Housewife.Finally, Holly and Joe decide toapply for welfare, and get a visit froma kinky welfare investigator, who de¬mands Holly’s silver 1940’s shoes be¬fore he’ll put her on the dole. Again, ascene that plays beautifully, with greatdialogue and characters.Holly herself is a garbage freak: “Ifurnished the place with garbage,” shetells the welfare man. The movie itselfis called Trash, but it is infinitely lesstrashy than many other movies of lastyear. By calling the movie Trash,Warhol and Morrissey are making alittle joke about their preoccupationwith the seamy underside of urban(specifically New York urban) life, andthe minimal Warhol production values.Actually, Trash is far more profes¬sional in technique than previous War¬hol productions — the sound is general¬ly clear, the editing and camera move¬ments smooth, and the grainy 16mmcolor creates a kind of pointillisteeffect, especailly when Morrissey iso¬lates parts of objects and bodies in out-of-focus close-ups. In these shots, wealmost ha ve to look at the grain patternof the film.Trash isn’t.—Charles FlynnFebruary 26, 1971/Grey City Journal/5THE W. C.

At the beginning of thefilm, the young Balthazar is adopted by a group ofchildren one summer. He is owned by a tramp,Arnold, during part of the film. The film also dealswith a young girl, Marie (Anne Wiazemsky, Mrs.Jean-Luc Godard) and her first sexual experiences.Bresson probably has the most distinctive styleof any film director: he is fanatically austere. Inmuch of the film, we get so little plot information thatit’s difficult just to figure out what is happening.One of Bresson’s most impressive achievementsin this great film is the striking sensuality andlyricism he obtains with the most restrained tech¬niques. The opening sequences with the children aresimply superb, on whatever level one responds tothem, and the final scene of Balthazar’s death on ahillside among a flock of sheep is extraordinarilymoving.One of the keys to the film, I think, is that we arefar more moved by what happens to Balthazar thanwe are by anything that happens to any of thehumans — even though Arnold dies (after receivingan inheritance) and Marie has a rather brutal sexualexperience with a motorcyclist, Gerard. This isbecause Bresson has concentrated these experiences Anne Wiazemsky as Mariein Balthazar’s own experience, a brilliantly econom¬ical device for summarizing the whole experience ofthe film.Any evaluation of Au Hasard Balthazar mustrecognize the clarity and purity of Bresson’s visualstyle. Cinematographer Ghislain Cloquet (who isresponsible for the lush colors of Demy’s Young Girlsof Rochefort and the extravagant shadows of Penn’s Mickey One) has shot the film in a subtle range ofgrey tones.Bresson shoots scenes in a manner that resolutlydivorces people’s souls and minds from their actions.When Arnold goes to a cafe and gets drunk, forexample, all we see is a close-up of his hand lifting aglass from the bar, and replacing it empty. Theaction is totally separate from the individual.Similarly, when Marie submits to Gerard, all we seeare close-ups of their hands.Bresson also insists on the perversely con¬tradictory nature of the world. The first shot in thefilm is of the newborn Balthazor: A group of childrenask their father if they can take Balthazar home. Thefather replies, “Impossible.” Cut to the childrenleading the donkey home. Arnold announces that heis going on the wagon. Cut to Arnold at the cafe aboutto get drunk.Bresson has made remarkably few films in hiscareer — Les Dames du Bois du Boulogne in 1944,Diary of a Country Priest in 1950, A Man Escaped in1956, Joan of Arc in 1962, Balthazar in 1965,Mouchette in 1966, and A Gentle Creature in 1968. Themajor appreciation of his work in English is SusanSon tag’s essay in Against Interpretation. I think hislast three films are by far his finest work. Au HasardBalthazar and Mouchette, especially, exist alone intheir own very special artistic world. The moreBresson pares away and denies us and himself, themore his films move us.—Charles FlynnDANCEFair Dance in Cramped Quarters“Eros Smith,” which the Judy Joseph, KenBrelsfoard and Dance Theatre Company presentedlast Saturday night at the Third Floor Theater, 22East Van Buren, is a mixed bag. The two Chicago-based choreographers, dancers, and teachers andtheir company ably executed the movements anddrama that the choreographers called for. However,much of the choreography was predictable andrather outmoded.The hour-long story of “Eros Smith,” which hasseven scenes, begins when a prim and proper younglady answers a unicorn-for-sale ad. She’s invited tosee it, writes her mother about it, makes love withEros Smith (the only male in the 11-membe group),writes a poem for Eros and a letter for her mother,and is told by Eros that its all over but “it was anexperience.”During this story, Eros dances with and about‘les girls,’ and his mistress dramatically commitssuicide. She is appropriately costumed in red harem pajamas, while Eros wears green pants and shirt anda silver lame vest. The piece features Eros,portrayed by Brelsfoard; the girls downstairs,danced by Judy Joseph, who is Mrs. Brelsfoard andwho was a soloist with Charles Weidman and Co. inNew York, and the mistress, danced by Sandra CaeGoodin, who has danced with Hyde Parker MaggieKast’s Chicago Contemporary Dance Theatre.The rest of the cast came on in sporadic chorus¬like fashion, and it was a shame that they weren’tallowed to dance more. Sharman Skally, in drag, is agreat mime. She’s “Mother Plum tree” on WFLD-TV’s Cartoon Town and appeared last season withthe Claude Kipnis Mime Theater.The company was hampered by their theater,which was actually a small dance studio — perhaps20 by 4(ffeet — with two poles in the middle, a mirrorand bar along one wall, and low ceiling. The spacewas constricted even more by the 50 folding chairsprovided for the a udience. The dancers utilized the exits and fire-escapedoors for their entrances and exits, and incorporateda bit of narcissus for Eros with the mirrors.Basically, “Eros Smith” is a not-so-hot 1950’snarrative dance theater piece with grand dramaticgestures choreographed in the 1970’s. It even has arip-her-dress-off-and-let-her-dance-in-her-slip-scene.The musical accompaniment includes some rock,Frank Sinatra, and Mantovani, and it ends with“Let’s take it nice and easy.” In short, there wassome disciplined professional dancing, effectivelighting and utilization of a limiting space, but thechoreography and story-line were basically trite.The theater and people are pleasant, and ifyou’re sick of having the box office man snarl at youwhen you’re paying $6.00 to sit in the balcony at theAuditorium Theater, take a look at what’s beingoffered locally. “Eros Smith” will be performed Feb.27 at 7:30, Feb. 28 and March 7 at 4:00 p.m. Studenttickets are $1.
