aSHORTSEECO-OP6 More than 11,000 of us—Members of the Hyde Park Co-op —welcome you, students and teachers!!!*• c If you’re coming back for 1982-83, you probably already knowabout us—-but you may be unaware of some of our services.If you’re here for the first time, we’d like to become yourfriends.. So we’d like to talk a little about ourselves.We own three stores in Hyde Park, the University of Chicagocommunity: a supermarket at 55th and Lake Park (the streetthat runs alongside the railroad tracks east of the campus); aconvenience store—the short Stop—at 53rd and Lake Park; anda furniture store named Scan at 52nd and Lake Park.The fact that we’re a co-operative simply means that ourshoppers, your friends and neighbors, are our owners. You canshop in the Co-op stores without being a member and no onewill push you to join, but most of our shoppers do buy member¬ships for these reasons.— If we make a profit, we distribute it to members, partly onthe basis of how much shopping they have done and partly onthe basis of how many shares in the Co-op a member owns.—Members decide our policies—we’re probably the mostresponsive store you’ve ever seen because our customers ownus.—It costs only $10 for a single share to join.We’re the largest in Hyde Park and we’ve assembled under asingle roof an array of services unmatched anywhere hereby.Here’s a list:—We offer the biggest selection of Groceries—We have a home economist on our staff who will adviseanyone from a beginning housekeeper to a gourmet.—We have a credit union (this one is for members only) thatenables you to save or will make you a loan when you need one.—We have a post office branch and a branch of one of HydePark’s two banks.It’s the value of conveniencestores to charge more for thegoods and service they offer.Ours is no exception in that itcosts a little more to shop therethan it does in the supermarket;but we charge less than other con¬venience stores and we’re openlonger hours, to suit busy people. Our modern furniture store’smanagers literally travelthroughout the world to findbargains in both quality andprice.Whether you need a single pieceof furniture to make your roommore comfortable or whetheryou’re setting up an entire newhousehold, just compare our of¬ferings with other stores!2—The Chicago Maroon—Friday, September 24. 1982volume92. no. 7 Table of Contents ©Copyright 1982Who’s who in the U of C Administration page 4University bureaucracy a-mazing page 4New dean of the College juggles tasks page 5Hyde Park Security: words to the wise page 7Sources of financial aid scarce but available page 8Strapped students seek part-time employment page 9Real U of C Students eat Quiche page 10Getting the most from a U of C education page 11Student Health offers range of services page 12Religion on the Quadrangles page 14Shopping in Hyde Park: from linen to liquor page 15A Tradition of Change: a history of the College page 16A Taste of Hyde Park: from cheap to chic page 19Bookstores cater to diverse interest page 20Autumn sports season begins pages 26,27Passing the bar exam page 28This is the special orientation issue of the Chicago Maroon.

September 24, 1982—3The AdministrationWho’s who in the U of C administrationHanna Holborn Gray, President of the Uni¬versity — Everyone at the University knowswho she is and what she looks like but fewstudents actually meet her. Occasionallyshe mingles with students — at her annualparty at Ida Noyes Hall or at the Homecom¬ing football game — but for the most partshe is up in her office on the fifth floor of theAdministration building or meeting poten¬tial contributors across, the country. Run¬ning a major university is a very demandingjob, and hence she has little time for studentaffairs. It is possible to see her, however,and she has attended a sherry hour in thedorms. To make an appointment with Presi¬dent Gray, you must first speak to F. Gre¬gory Campbell, her special assistant, whowill usually refer you to someone else. SinceCampbell coordinates Gray’s calendar, youmust tell him far in advance about any func¬tions at which you desire the presence of thePresident.Charles O'Connell, Dean of Students in theUniveristy — Virtually every decision con¬cerning student life passes through his of¬fice, from admissions to financial aid tohousing to disciplinary action, even thoughO’Connell may not have first or final word inthese decisions. His office is also responsi¬ble for overseeing student activities. Be¬cause O’Connell has so many responsibili¬ties (he is now also in charge of alumniaffairs) and is sought by so many persons,your chances of reaching him about a trivialmatter are slim. You are more likely to bereferred to one of his assistant deans. Youcan try going through the Faculty-Student-Administration Committee on Campus Stu¬ dent Life (FSACCSL) which he chairs, butthat committee is not noted for swiftness orefficiency.Hanna GrayDonald Levine. Dean of the College — Hejust took office this month after serving asmaster of the Social Science Collegiate Divi¬sion for two years. Levine coordinates un¬dergraduate academic programs at the fac¬ulty level. Although he probably will not beable to help students with their individualacademic plans, he is making an effort toget his office more involved in student ad¬vising and student life. He is also trying tomake himself accessible to students. How¬ever, with the Karl Committee report on theorganization of the College on his desk, thenew dean will certainly have his handsfull. Richard Taub, Associate Dean of the Col¬lege — Levine created this position for hisfriend Taub in order to bridge the gap be¬tween student administration and academicadministration. Taub will control student in¬formation processing which involves keep¬ing track of students’ grades, majors, ad¬dresses, and other basic data. Furthermore,the dean of College admissions and financialaid reports directly to Taub. Since this is anew position, it is not clear yet how muchcontact Taub will have with the students.Charles O’ConnellUniversity bureaucracy a-mazingMost students who spend time at the Uni¬versity of Chicago encounter at least oncethat labyrinth known as the University bu¬reaucracy. If you have an error on your reg¬istration card, a request to leave the housingsystem, a complaint about a bad grade, anidea for an individualized major, or a pleafor more financial aid, you will have to seekthe help of a member of the administra¬tion.Knowing precisely to which administratoror faculty member to go can save muchtime and effort. However, students must re¬alize that every administrator has a limit onwhat he or she can do. An understanding ofthe complex power structure of the Univer¬sity helps a great deal in a student’s battlewith the red tape.While most of major administrators arecentralized in the Administration Building,decision-making and power, especially con¬cerning academic matters, are diffuse, re¬siding primarily in the hands of the faculty.Through the Faculty Council and the Com¬mittee of the Council, the faculty exercisesthe dominant influence on the formation ofacademic policies. Furthermore, the deansof the divisions and schools and the depart¬mental chairs are all faculty members.They have immediate charge of Universityprograms.Faculty within a department have almostcomplete control over what courses are of¬fered in that department. The faculty workswith the departmental chair in decidingwhich professors to hire. Although the pro¬vost has the final decision on firing and ten¬ure decisions, recommendations of the de¬partmental chair carry tremendous weight.The chair is responsible for the reputationand quality of his department.Except for introductory and common corecourses, individual professors have virtualautonomy over how their courses are taughtand graded.Most faculty members also serve on oneor more committees which design and im¬plement programs for each of the CollegiateDivisions under the guidance of the Colle¬giate Master. Each Collegiate Division setsits own overall requirements and curricu¬lum, such as the number and nature of therequired general education courses.Faculty members make the most impor¬tant and far-reaching policy decisions on ac¬ademic matters for the whole University inthe Council of the Faculty Senate, a repre¬sentative body of the University faculty.Acting as a steering committee for the 51- member Council is the seven-member Com¬mittee of the Council. The Committee con¬siders everything that is to be discussed bythe Council as a whole, and reports its rec¬ommendations for discussion.The President and the provost are ex-offi¬cio members of the Council. While they donot vote, they have considerable influenceand can initiate consideration of matters bythe Council. Their positions give them con¬siderable clout when they want a proposalapproved by the faculty.In addition, the College has its own Col¬lege Council and Committee of the CollegeCouncil which exercise the same authorityin the College.As in any institution with such a complexadministrative structure, personal influ¬ence often outweighs the University’s statu¬tory set up Some faculty members, in par¬ticular, gain clout through friendships withadministrators. Professors with greaterreputations or more force of personalitytend to become part of the corps of influen¬tial “insidprc ”Trying to coordinate the departments arethe deans of the graduate Divisions, theDean of the College, and the deans of theprofessional schools. The deans act as medi¬ators between the desires of the facultymembers and departmental heads withineach division or school and the necessitiesdictated by the councils and administratorswho determine how much can be spent forwhat purposes. The deans, like departmen¬tal chairs, hold a delicate position — theyneed to satisfy the members of their divi¬sions, but sometimes have to step on toes toaccomplish what needs to be done, such asreviving a stodgy department, or setting upa new program.The provost acts as the official liaison be¬tween the faculty and the administration.He serves as the principal director of all ac¬ademic affairs, and has final authority onquestions of hiring, firing, and tenure. Inthis regard, the provost is ultimately re¬sponsible for the oversight of faculty quali¬tyWith the recent appointment of Anthropol¬ogy Professor Robert McCormick Adams asprovost the role of the provost has changed.Adams’ predecessor, Kenneth Dam, now USdeputy secretary of state, had a strongbackground in economics and henc3 dealthimself with a majority of budgetary deci¬sions. Dam had chief responsibility for theUniversity’s $380 million budget.Adams, however, has little budgetary ex¬ perience and will probably concentrate onacademic programs and policies.President Hanna Gray is the chief admin¬istrative officer in the University. Unlikeher pioneering predecessors such as Wil¬liam Rainey Harper and Robert MaynardHutchins who helped shape American edu¬cation, Gary is not an innovator. Her role aspresident has been as manager, concerningherself with only the more urgent problemsof the times. Most of the President’s effortsare devoted to alleviating the University’sfinancial burdens. Gray travels extensivelyaround the country meeting frequently withbusiness leaders and potential big contribu¬tors.Below the President are about a halfdozen vice-presidents. Unlike the Presidentand the provost, most of the vice-presidentsare not faculty members. Each concen¬trates in a particular area of administrationsuch as finance, development, and commu¬nity affairs. Students rarely, if ever, comein contact with the vice-presidents. Theirjobs are almost exclusively non-academic.The individual powers of the vice-presi¬dents are not divided by the position somuch as by the individual. Authority is dele¬gated to suit the abilities and talents of theperson, not the position.Overseeing the entire operation of theUniversity is the Board of Trustees, which islegally the body responsible for the exis¬tence of the corporation known as the Uni¬versity of Chicago.While the trustees do not attempt to inter¬fere with academic operations, they play anactive role in planning and fund-raising,which indirectly affect academic matters.Although most of the approximately 80trustees play only a ceremonious role, theBoard is the final legal authority at the Uni¬versity.Nevertheless, members of the Board ofTrustees are among the wealthiest and mostinfluential figures in Chicago. Included areIllinois Sen. Charles Percy, chairman of theSenate Foreign Relations Committee; Kath¬arine Graham, publisher and chair of theboard of the Washington Post; David Rock¬efeller, retired president and chairman ofthe board of the Chase Manhattan Bank.Because of their vast wealth and influ¬ence, contributions they make personallyand others they solicit through their person¬al and corporate connections provide thenecessary cash for the operation of the Uni¬versity and for the continued health of its en¬dowment. Herman Sinaiko, Dean of Students in theCollege — Sinaiko’s office deals with aca¬demic problems affecting undergraduates.Sinaiko can help you with extraordinaryregistration problems and curricular ques¬tions your advisor cannot answer. However,since Sinaiko is new at this job, you may bebetter off going to one of the more experi¬enced, assistant deans Katie Nash or NancyO’Conner for some of your more specificproblems. If you are transferring or drop¬ping out, Sinaiko may meet with you to tryto change your mind. His office also deter¬mines eligibility for the Dean’s List and aca¬demic probation. Since Sinaiko intends tofocus on student life, he is likely to offer sug¬gestions to student organizations. He is alsoa popular humanities professor.Edward Turkington, Director of StudentHousing — If you are sick of your house andwant to move to another dorm or if you aresick of the dorm food and want to get out ofyour meal plan, Turkington is the man tosee. You will also get to see him if you arecaught blowing up toilets or doing someother harmless dormitory prank. Turking¬ton administers the residential housing sys¬tem for both graduates and undergraduates,and in addition to the tasks described above,his office also helps arrange interhouse so¬cial programs. And if the two Marks, thetwo Johns, or the two Kathys in your houseare all roommates, it probably was not bycoincidence.Jonathan Kleinbard, Vice-President forUniversity Sews and Community Sews —Kleinbard oversees the operation of the Uni¬versity’s security force and serves as theUniversity's liason to community groupsand businesses. Your questions about thecampus security force should be brought tohim He is also one to whom requests to seePresident Gray are often referred. The Uni¬versity has a long history of playing an ac¬tive role in Hyde Park and nearby commu¬nities, dealing with housing, crime, andurban renewal; much of this activity is coor¬dinated by the Community Affairs office.Dan Hall, Dean of College Admissions andAid — Financial aid is an essential part oflife for many students and Hall’s office hasthe sometimes pleasant job of informingstudents how much — or how little — moneythey will have on which to subsist. All thedifferent aid programs for undergraduatessuch as scholarships, Federal grants, loansand work study are administered throughthe Financial Aid office. If you go to the Col¬lege Aid office with a plea for more assis¬tance however, you will probably end upseeing the assistant director of College Aid,Eleanor Borus.Herman SinaikoIrene Conley, Director of the Student Activi¬ties Office — Conley runs the office (SAO)which probably has the most direct effect onthe quality of student life on campus, notthat it is her fault. Besides providing manyactivities for students, from Eclectic Edcourses to formal swing band dances, Con¬ley and her office serve as a valuable sup¬porter and assistant to the groups doing awide range of activities on campus. If youare a active member of a student group or ifyou want to start a new group, you will endup meeting Conley. Most will find her avaluable friend and ally4—The Chicago Maroon—Friday, September 24, 19824The AdministrationNew dean of the College juggles tasksBy Anna FeldmanOn a table by the door of his new office,Donald Levine keeps three juggling balls.He picks them up carefully, though not ti¬midly, and tosses them into the air one byone. At first he winces slightly with eachthrow, but after a few tosses he becomes ac¬customed to the rhythm of the balls in airand keeps them going in a circle.Running the Office of the Dean, he says, ismuch like juggling. “There are so incred¬ibly many things to be concerned about,” hesays, but only a few can be dealt with at atime. Levine hopes to be able to limit thenumber of concerns that come up at once.He can juggle three balls together, but asyet he is unable to master five. In the sameway, he is hoping to keep administrativeconcerns under control.If his performance as dean of the Collegeis as skillful and impressive as his perfor¬mance as a juggler, the College is in goodhands for the next few years.Levine has entered the deanship with fouryears administrative experience. As found¬ing master of the Social Sciences CollegiateDivision (SSCD) in 1965, he served until1968, then resumed his position as the divi¬sion master from 1981 to 1982. His enthusi¬asm for the new position reflects his eager¬ness to accept a challenge.“I see the College becoming, for the firsttime in the history of the University, a realcenter of University life,” says Levine.“More faculty from more parts of the Uni¬versity will be active in the College than be¬fore.”Envisioning a “strong image” for the Col¬lege, Levine says, “We are going to have theresources and the energy to make it real ex¬citing.” Levine points out a shift of focus inthe University given enrollment rising in theCollege and declining in the graduateschools. He sees this as a positive shift, but “not.... if people view it as a threat to theseriousness of the University.” Levine saysthat an active faculty in the College does notimply a relaxation of research efforts.Among Levine’s long range goals for theCollege is to increase the number of facultymembers teaching undergraduates. Duringhis term as master of SSCD last year, thenumber of common core and civilizationcourses taught by faculty rose from 50 per¬cent to over 70 percent.Donald Levine relaxing“I know that I’m going to make mis¬takes,” Levine says. “That’s a normal partof the process, nothing to worry about.” Le¬vine hopes “to encourage an atmosphere ofopenness” among members ot the facultyand administration, one in which he will consult others before making changes andwill take the advice of others into considera¬tion in making decisions.As a long time Hyde Park resident and aCollege graduate, Levine has definite ideasabout problems in the College. A very majorarea of concern, he says, is the quality ofstudent life on campus.Students coming here, says Levine, “are afairly serious bunch, coming often at a sac¬rifice and looking for a good education.”They tend to excel in their academic studieswhile generally they have little experiencein non-academic areas.Levine encourages students to becomemore involved in activities and “to promotethe sense that this is an okay thing to do.”He says that prevailing attitudes towardextra curricular activity have not changedmuch since the time he was a student andthat such attitudes are the result of some“deeply rooted guilt” to devote all of one’stime to one’s work.In hopes of improving the quality of stu¬dent life, Levine is planning several largescale events on campus. Homecoming fes¬tivities, a winter carnival, and the appoint¬ment of “advisor fellows” for all dorms areamong the social activities to be sche¬duled.Levine himself participates in several ac¬tivities outside of his job. He enjoys tennisand has a brown belt in Aikido. (He hopes toearn a black belt sometime while serving asdean.)A real music enthusiast, Levine playspiano, violin and viola. “I once thought I'dbe a musician,” he says adding that bothmusic and chemistry were his earliest am¬bitions. In addition, Levine enjoys writing,and, above all, teaching. “Of everything,”he says, “I enjoy teaching the most.”Levine is originally from a small town inwestern Pennsylvania. He finds living in Chicago exciting, and says that he still getsa “charge” out of seeing the city’s skyline.When he was college age, he applied for ad¬mission only to the University of Chicago,was accepted, and graduated in two yearsPHOTO BY DARRELL WUDUNNLevine and his predecessor, JonathanZ. Smithwith the Class of 1950. He was the first post¬war exchange student to Germany. For oneyear he studied at the University of Frank¬furt, and did research in Berlin for his thesison conformity and deviation among Germanyouth.In 1954, Levine earned his master’s de¬gree in sociology, and in 1957, his doctorate.After doing research in libraries of Parisand Rome, Levine spent three years doingfield work on the Amhara people of Ethio¬pia, work which led to his first book. Waxand Gold: Tradition and Innovation in Ethi¬opian Culture Other publictions by Levineinclude Flight from Ambiguity, a collectionof essays on social and cultural theory; andin 1981, his dissertation, published 24 yearsafter its submission.In 1971, Levine received the QuantrellAward fcr excellence in undergraduateteachingnoc70Hmv><o-n-tlmon-nnmo■nHImom>zo■nXmnorrmo ADVISORS 266 Sheila Putzel 252 Ethel Deutsch272 Jean Treese 264 Sonia Jacobson 273 Audrey Gryzwinski270 Lewis Fortner 262 Carol Jones 271 Jeffrey Barton268 Doreen Herlihy 254 Suzanne Ivester 238 Emily Ooms—« ' * • >—V j252 | | 242 23P 232 | (1 a lto Financial Aid-*CollegeDEAN OF STUDENTS OFFICE281 Herman Sinaiko. dean of students267 Katie Nash265 Nancy O’Conner l239 —u—1237 1JL- . -1 j.243 235DEAN OF THE COLLEGE247 Donald Levine, dean of the College251 Richard Taub, associate dean250 J.

Crowds of children played in thestreets, people sat in small conversationalgroups on neighborhood porches and a slow,easy sense of time pervaded. The undergradwas headed for home after a long day ofclasses, the last one until Fall quarter. Shewalked slowly, savoring the warmth. To¬morrow would be Saturday and she had al¬ready made plans. She opened the vestibuledoor to her building just as a young man,dressed as a college student, walked brisklyup the steps. He asked her to hold the nextlocked door open. It was a beautiful day andshe felt neighborly toward the man she as¬sumed was a new resident.As the two entered together, he asked poli¬tely if he could use her phone. Since helooked all right and he probably had not hadhis phone installed yet, she agreed. Sheknew what the phone company could be like,she said to him.She opened the door to her apartment.None of her roommates had returned yet.The phone was near the door so she pointedto it and it was then that she saw the gun. Heraped her.Hyde Park’s otherwise calm summer wasmarred by a frightening series of sixrape/robberies, all committed, say the po¬lice, by one man. Steven R. Jackson, 25, of11660 S. Lowe, was apprehended by Lt. LeeCaldwell of the University Security Depart¬ment September 7 at 3:30 p.m. while walk¬ing down Greenwood Ave. near the fieldhouse. He is being held by police on fourcounts of rape, five counts of armed rob¬bery, and other charges of home invasion,residential burglaries, and deviate sexualassault.Police say that Jackson, who has a pre¬vious record of armed robbery in the area,used the same basic style with his victims.He would either wait until they had enteredtheir buildings and force his way into theirapartments or ask them to let him in on apretense. Three of his victims were Univer¬sity students and one, who has not yetpressed charges, is a member of the facul-This terrifying series, which RobertMason of the South East Chicago Commis¬sion (SECC) said has been halted by Jack¬son’s arrest, serves to illustrate an impor¬tant point about living in Hyde Park: safetyis up to you. Whether you are seven feet tallor just missing five, your own well-being de¬pends on your caution, your forethought,and most of all, your good sense.There have been other rapes and rob¬beries in Hyde Park but not many comparedto other Chicagoland communities, say thestatistics. Too many if a friend, relative, oryou are raped.The Hyde Park community boasts one ofthe lowest crime rates in the city of Chicagoand the University itself has one of the larg¬est police forces in the state. But the bestprotection is to know your limits, know yourescape routes, and know yourself. By beingconscious that there is a danger and that itcan affect you, your years at the University can be safe as well as challenging and mo¬bile.A PERSONAL SYSTEMBuildingsWhen looking for a place to live or wheninvestigating your new dormitory, makesure that the front of the building is brightlylit. Lighting along the inside hallways and inthe entryway is also important. It is easy forpotential crimes to occur in a dark vestibulewhile you are opening the building door.Check the locks to verify that they arestrong and cannot be forced or jimmied withsomething as simple as a driver’s license.Lock your own door at all times. If yourbuilding does not have a burglar alarm sys¬tem, hang bells on the doors and clutterfragile objects on the windowsills.When approaching your building at night,be aware of recesses and dark alcoves.Have your keys and whistle out. If there is alaundryroom or empty stairwell inside, askthe landlord to keep it lit. If your buildinghas an elevator, avoid using it if a strangerhas entered ahead of you. Only board if youknow your companion. If you are already onand feel uneasy, get off or push other but¬tons so the elevator will stop severaltimes.But most importantly, know your neigh¬bors. Apartment life need not be a contin¬uous interrogation of the young fellow whohappens to live the next door down. Intro¬duce yourself and share concerns w ith themabout building safety. If the intercoms donot work, ask guests as well as neighborsnot to admit strangers when they enter. Andif a suspicious person has been hangingaround, ask about him. He might just bewaiting for a friend — or he could be waitingfor you.Walking PatternsCommon sense could dictate your wayhome from the library or to the bar. Theseprecautions hold in any modern Americanhamlet from New York City to Pescadero,California.Avoid w'alking alone at night. If it is poss¬ible to go home in a group of more than twopeople, do so. Several group muggings haveoccurred in the past, one in a crowd of fivestudents. If everyone else has gone home,take the mini-bus. If the mini-buses havestopped running, you still have a friend tosee you to the door if you call Security. A carwill come to your starting point and followyou to your door. This umbrella coverage isgood 24 hours a day, but avoid calling whenthere are other options like buses andfriends, avaiable.Familiarize yourself with your neighbor¬hood as soon as possible. Watch traffic pat¬terns and street use to determine the beststreet on which to walk at night and avoidthose with dark play-lots, alleyways, orparking garages. Streets should be well-lit,have security phones, and preferably havestores open late.The Point is not the best place to go afterdark alone. Security cars have no real juris¬diction to go to the lakefront and are hesi¬ tant to do so even when there is a call. Chi¬cago police are busy dealing with otherneighborhoods, so a walk on the Point is awalk into a grey area.It is also unsafe to take walks south of 60thSt. after dark or north of 47th. Security cov¬erage ceases at these boundaries, so thereare no security phones or patrolling cars.Body language is always important on thestreet. A potential assault can be thwartedwith an alert look, a confident and briskwalk, and a obvious sign: the whislte outand clearly visible in your hand. Backpacksnecessary and, with luck, upon searchingthrough your Core papers and half-eatenlunch, the attacker will give it up and leaveyour treasures intact.If you encounter a situation in which youare being verbally abused and being threat¬ened with physical abuse, ignore it Temperis not a healthy emotion when you are out¬numbered or outweighed. If you expect to betouched, move away to the other side of thestreet or to the middle of the street. If physi¬cal contact is made, react. Do not be passiveunless it is obvious that the attacker is car¬rying a weapon. Throw whatever you have(Yes Virginia, even your dissertation; youshould have made a copy anyway), scream,do anything to distract him But do not waitto be grabbed. Often, with a careful yetquick look down the street, these situationscan be spotted far in advance. Do not be shyabout asking another student to accompanyyou and do not feel hunted because youchose to take another route. Caution isworthless after that attacker has movedin.ExerciseRunning along the Point and in the HydePark area is safe in the daytime, taking intoaccount all the same precautions aboutwalking in the street. But contrary to popu¬lar belief, many incidents do occur betweenthe hours of 4 to 7 p.m. and during the morn¬ing rush hour. If you feel like biking or run¬ning to the Loop, be aware of hot spots, suchas the 47th St. pedestrian bridge where per¬sons have been mugged, their bikes stolen,and their pride injured. Maneuvering on anexpensive bike is not as easy as you thinkwhen faced against a gang of youths. Aswith walking, find a partner.A PUBLIC SYSTEMThe University has invested a large for¬tune in its Security system but unfortunate¬ly a proportionate number of students andfaculty to not take advantage of it. This isnot to say that by using the security systemto its fuli extent, one is guaranteed the fulluse of all one’s nickels and dimes. But theaverage student has a much greater chanceof buying that extra beer if he is smart abouthis options. wiseCampus BusesThe best way to get around campus atnight is to use the free mini bus service.There are four routes leaving from Regen-stein library. Service runs every half-hourbetween 6 p.m. and 1 a.m. A map is postedright inside the front door at Regenstein andthey can be picked up at the bookstore, IdaNoyes, Reynolds Club, and many moreplaces on campus. The buses have particu¬lar stops on their routes, but most will stopat the end of any block if you flag themdown. There is also the Shoreland Shuttlewhich runs in the mornings and at mealtimes, and is also free.In addition to these buses, there are three>ay buses run by the University which reacha wider area, including the neighborhood ofSouth Shore. You have to buy tickets to ridethese buses: you cannot use cash. The farefor the South Shore route is 80 cents; ticketsfor the two Hyde Park routes are 45 cents.Monthly books are available. These busesrun only during morning and evening rushhours. Tickets and route maps are availableat Reynolds club.Finally, for those wishing to get out ofHyde Park altogether, but who wish to avoidthe more dangerous public transportation,the Student Government is running a bus upto the North Side on most Friday and Satur¬day evenings this quarter Watch forMaroon ads for more details.Umbrella CoverageAny student wishing to travel across HydePark, who feels nervous about walkingalone can get an escort from campus securi¬ty. under a service known as Umbrella Cov¬erage. Students, male or female, need onlycall security, from a white security phone orfrom a normal phone at 753-2211 or 962-8181,and security will come by to escort the stu¬dent. A study done by the Maroon lastwinter showed that the average responsetime by security was six minutes, and thatresponse time improved after 10 p.mSecurity is suppose to only follow the stu¬dent. but many times rides are offered tocallers. This, too increases with the latenessof the hour, and also with the other factors,such as weather and whether the student ismale or female. But there is no official poli¬cy about giving rides to any student. Stu¬dents who are walking on the streets and seea security car can also flag them down inorder to get coverage.Security PhonesThe white phones located around campusare emergency phones directly connected tothe University police. Between 56th and theMidway, Cottage Grove and the IC tracks,there is one on every corner, as well asmany other locations in the rest of HydePark. If you are being chased, just take thephone off the hook as you run by, and securi¬ty will be alerted and send cars to the areaBut you should be aware that just openingContinued on page 15The Chicago Maroon—Friday, September 24, 1982—7Campus security cars patrol neighborhood.

The two exceptions were Pell Grantsand the Guaranteed Student Loans (GSL);the latter was originally to have suffered abudget cut of at least $59 million, but is nowlooks as if this cut will not materialize. Onechange which did take place is that the Fed¬eral Government will no longer guaranteethe GSL, but has handed this duty over tostate agencies. In Illinois, only the Universi¬ty of Chicago and Northwestern Universitystill depend upon the government as aguarantor.Almost any student in need can qualify forthe GSL, but students whose families havean income of less than $30,000 per year qual¬ify automatically. The low-interest loans(up to $2500 per year for undergraduatesand twice that amount for graduate stu¬dents) are made by a lender (bank, creditunion, savings and loan association) and areinsured by the guarantor. The total debt anundergraduate may carry is $12,500 and fora graduate student it is $25,000.Citibank has announced that it will handleloan applications for University of Chicagostudents applying for Federally Insured Stu¬dent Loans, and that students will be able toconsolidate FISL and GSL loans.Another loan program which has been inthe news lately is the National Direct Stu¬dent Loan (NDSL). The University of Chi¬cago is one of only 3340 colleges which par¬ticipates in this program, having reenteredafter withdrawing in the early days of theprogram when it was known as the NationalDefense Student Loan and required studentsto sign a loyalty oath. The NDSL programmakes available low-interest loans which students must begin repaying six monthsafter ceasing their education, whether bygraduating, leaving, or dropping below- half¬time status. The student may take up to tenyears to repay the loan.Recently stories of persons defaulting ontheir loans, including lawyers, physicians,and celebraties, have been in the news.Some people are even being sued for theamount of the default. Also, a new regula¬tion requires an institution with a defaultrate of twenty-five percent or more to em¬power the government to make collections;if the institution does not do so and the de¬fault rate does not decrease, the govern¬ment has a right to cut off NDSL funding.In 1981 a new loan program was startedwhich is not based upon income. Called theAuxiliary Loan Program, it allows parents,independant students, or graduate studentsto borrow up to $3000 a year at interest ratesbased upon the average U.S. Treasury billinterest rates.Another option that the government hasopened to students is grants, which unlikeloans do not need to be paid back, with orwithout interest. The best known is the PellGrant, until recently called the Basic Edu¬cational Opportunity Grant. Often the firstsource of aid, Pell Grants are especiallymeant for those students whose familiesearn less than $12,000 per year, and awardsare made using a standard formula. Stu¬dents may apply w-ith the free “Applicationfor Federal Student Aid,” and can receiveup to $1800 a year (increased from lastyear).Another federal grant is the SupplementalEducational Opportunity Grant (SEOG),which is managed by the financial aid of¬ficer of each school. The government giveseach school a sum of money each year todistribute as it sees fit, but when the moneyis gone there will be no more for that schoolthat year. Students may receive up to $2000a year under this program. For University of Chicago students thereis good news and bad news regarding theSEOG. The good news is that the Universitywill receive about $30,000 for this year andthe bad is that this money will probably beused to cover a deficit in the University’s as¬sistance program.Work/study is another form of govern¬ment-subsidized aid which colleges and un¬iversities may provide for their students.Undergraduate and graduate students canapply for on- and off-campus jobs to offseteducational expense. At the University ofChicago work study people are generallypaid well over the minimum wage but mostjobs were filled in the spring and there is awaiting list. Also, the government has notincreased work study funds for the 1982-1983school year.A press release distributed by the U.S. De¬partment of Education states that thechanges and cutbacks “reflect an effort toreturn aid programs to their original pur¬pose, which w-as to help students cover thecost of a college education — not carry thewhole burden.” It continues that “A suc¬cessful return to original intent will help en¬sure the survival of these aid programs forfuture students.” This sounds very noble,but probably is not very heartening to pres¬ent students.There is hope. The Financial Aid Office(now located in Harper 205, the old Dean ofthe College’s Office) has a file on outsidesources for grants or loans. Some of theseare quite specific in nature, requiring thatthe student be majoring in a certain field orbe a graduate of a certain high school. Thefile is worth checking into, because younever know for what you will qualify, butmany of the organizations require ninemonths for processing of the application, sostart now for next year. Many of theseawards, like the scholarships and grantsthat the University itself distributes, arebased upon need and academic standing. Another option is to go to the Office of Ca¬reer Counseling and Placement and inves¬tigate what jobs it has available. Most of theUniversity-based jobs require typing skillsand the ability to assure the employer youwill be there for several hours at a time, butnot all do. Keep checking back; the jobscome and go rather quickly.Also in the office is a binder filled with off-campus job listings. Some are downtown,others are in Hyde Park, and they vary frombartenders and waitresses and sales repre¬sentatives to household help. Many parentswant responsibile students to act as babysitters afternoons and evenings, and theJewish Community Center needs skilledpeople (arts and crafts, gymnastics, swim¬ming, etc.) to help out in its after school pro¬grams.Another place to look for jobs is in theChronicle, which prints a list of full-timeand “student” (part-time) jobs available.The classified section of the Maroon occa¬sionally lists job openings as well. Youshould keep your eyes and ears open aroundcampus, too; coffee shops and copy centersare staffed by students, as are mailrooms oncampus. Both Faculty Exchange and dormi¬tory switchboards employ students part-time.A last alternative is to work full-time andgo to school part-time, or to take time offfrom school completely and work for themoney needed for tuition. Those who havetaken either of these options say that theyhave learned from their experiences andhave come to appreciate their educationsmore.One worry facing male college studentswho are in need of financial aid is a recentamendment to the draft authorization billwhich would bar them from receiving feder¬al financial aid if they have not registeredfor the draft. Recently passed by Congressby an overwhelming margin, the amend-Continued on page 15LIFE IS UKE A RIVER?There is an ancient Hassidic tale of a great Rabbi who was dying, and as we all know, deathbed wisdom isthe best.

More and more stu¬dents are looking to employment as the wayto scrape together that much needed cash.Many opportunities to work on or nearcampus exist and all finding a job takes is alittle perseverance.There are other good reasons to workother than to pay one’s bills. The Universityswears by its statement that students whowork from 10-15 hours a week generallyhave higher GPAs than those students whodo not work at all. If higher GPAs are notenough, then perhaps just the opportunity toget away from one’s housemates will aid inkeeping a level head in the tangled existenceknown as college. In any case, the followingis offered as a tool for pulling in to focus theterm-time employments picture.Probably the most extensively used Uni¬versity student employment service is theCollege Work/Study program. Funds fromthe program come from the Federal govern¬ment and from the University departmentswhich hire Work/Study students. Approxi¬mately $520,000 has been earmarked by thefederal government for U of C Work/Studyprogram. This makes up about 60 percent ofthe total Work/Study budget with the re¬maining 40 percent or approximately$345,000 to be contributed by the University.Students eligibility for the program is deter¬mined when a student applies for financialaid and funds are awarded as part of theUniversity’s aid package. Unfortunatelysince funds are so limited the program is notable to help all of the students in need. Jobsthrough the program range from clericaland receptionist-type positions to highly co¬veted research and lab assistantships.Dorothy Harris, the College Work/Studycoordinator, expects that “approximately 620 will be able to be placed through theWork/Study program and nearly 420 ofthose will be undergraduates.’’ She advisedthat “students should come into the officeearly in the year, like the first two weeks,because that’s when all of the highly desir¬able jobs are available,” and cautioned stu¬dents that they “should not become dis¬couraged that they cannot find a job whichinterests them, but instead should keepplugging away at it until something turnsup.”While College Work/Study accounts for alarge part of the students who do work;there are still jobs for students who are eli¬gible for funding or who cannot find any¬thing suitable in the Work/Study listings.The Career Counseling and Placement Of¬fice which runs the Work/Study programalso has a listing of off-campus jobs whichare called in by prospective employers. Astudent just has to leav through the bindersin the office which contain the job listings tofind a job he likes. If a student does indeedlocate a job he is referred to the employerby the Career Counseling and Placement Of¬fice. Students who are ineligible forWork/Study should make a point to visit theoffice to fill out one of the work forms foremployment.A third program run under the auspices ofthe Career Counseling and Placement Of¬fice is the On-Campus employment bulletinboard. Each day the board is updated withnew on-campus employment opportunities.Again a student must be referred to the jobby the Career Counseling and Placement Of¬fice.“If a student does nothing else, he shouldbe sure to check the bulletin board on a dailybasis because these jobs go quickly,” Harrisadvised.If after exhausting all of the University’sresources a student is still without a job it isa good idea to look for work on one’s own.There are many places where a student can look that are on campus. The library systemhires its own employees and does hire alarge amount of students. Student workerscheck out books, monitor the library to keepit a quiet place to study, and work in thestacks cataloguing and restacking books.If working in a library is not appealingperhaps working in one of the dining halls ofthe dormitory system is a good alternative.Students in the dining hall may aid in cleanup, serving, or taking meal cards. The payin a dining hall may aid in clean up, serving,or taking meal cards. The pay in a dininghall is good and many times a free meal isthrown in along with the salary.For students interested in earning somespending money without working regularhours in Rockefeller Chapel as a tour guideor usher can be a lucrative venture. In addi¬tion to good pay ushers at the Chapel alsoget to see concerts for free.The list for on campus jobs goes on andincludes coffee shop attendants and papergraders. The jobs one may find are limitedonly to one’s imagination.If working off campus, away from all ofthe worries of academia, is attractive jobscan be had in the Hyde Park area. As a stu¬dent ventures out into the area of the realworld to find a job, appearance becomessharply more important. While a coat andtie are generally not required for on-campusinterviews, they are strongly recommendedfor off-campus job hunting. In addition, jobdescriptions are not handed out at inter¬views. The student must know the job be¬forehand and be able to confince a prospect¬ive employer of his abilities. Finding a joboff campus is not easy, but the challengemay be inspiring to some.There are certain places one might checkwhen looking for off-campus employment.Restaurants are abundant in Hyde Park andfrequently hire students as Waitstaff, andkitchen staff. Many times jobs in restau¬rants require experience, but it never hurts to apply. In addition to restaurants, HydePark has a thriving business communitywhich should be combed by every jobseeker. Many businesses exist along 53rdSt., in the Hyde Park Shopping Center and inthe Harper Court which may be able to usestudents in a variety of tasks. If you are in¬terested in a job be sure that you are able topresent your abilities clearly to your poten¬tial employer. There is nothing more da¬maging to an interview than an applicantwho is not clear about what he can do or anapplicant who is overly modest about hisabilities or accomplishments.In addition to Hyde Park employment onemay also investigate part-time employmentin the Loop or along the North Michiganarea. Many large department stores willhire students on weekends and their dis¬count policies are an outstanding way forstudents to purchase much needed clothingat sharply reduced prices. In addition to de¬partment stores some brokerage houses areagreeable to hiring students as part-timerunners on the floor. The pay is not as goodas some other jobs, but what it lacks in mon¬etary rewards it pays back as an invaluablelearning experience for those interested inthe investment world.Students may also find Andy Frain Inc. agood way to earn money. Andy Frain is Chi¬cago’s leading employer of ushers and thefirm ushers at most if not all of the culturalevents such as the CSO and the Lyric OperaWorking restaurants in the Loop/North Mi¬chigan Ave. area is impossible for anyoneunder the legal drinking age of 21.Students should check out all options be¬fore deciding to work uptown. Although themonetary compensation may be greater, afew’ logistics such as commuting time andsafety factors involving transportation mustbe considered.If one is not able to locate a job and stillwishes to work during the school year thereContinued on page 15MedkiOn 57th Famous Burgers &Pizza for Over30 YearsWE ALSO DELIVER667-7394 The Medici Is Pleasedto Announce That itWill Soon BeOPENFORBREAKFASTHours:Breakfast: 7:00 a.m. - ll:30a.m.M-FSat. & Sun.

The guy from U of Cheads straight for the door.“At Harvard, they taught us to wash ourhands after going to the bathroom,” the fel¬low at the sink says with an affected ac¬cent.The guy from Chicago stops, looks at himfor a second, and says, “At Chicago theytaught us not to piss on our hands.”One should be wary of self-flatteringhumor, but in this case, the joke is apt. Chi¬cago’s education, with no attention given tosocial graces or modern forms, is underhan-dedly practical.But persons should be aware of the sacri¬fices they are making when they undertakea Chicago education. Try to find a Chicagoold boy’s network. Try to get a job in Wash¬ington with a Chicago degree. With a Har¬vard degree it’s easy. Not so from here.The rigor and integrity of a Chicago edu¬cation are undeniable, but we should be eva¬luating the costs of a noble education in aworld where nice guys finish last.I asked some of my friends who had beenhere for a few years what suggestions theywould make to a student who wanted thebest of both worlds, to graduate sociallywell-balanced as well as intellectuallyenriched. Here are some of the suggestionswe came up with:Don’t be a seminar baboon — In everyclass there’s at least one student who willmonopolize discussion, beating on his intel¬lectual chest, thereby displaying the intelli¬gence which, in his own mind at least, cata¬pults him into the firmament of thisunversity’s greatest stars. That will be theperson who informs the class that Aristotlewas an idiot for making such simple errors.That will be the person who lectures the pro¬fessor on his misanalysis of Hume’s empir¬icism. That will be the person who nods vi¬gorously when the professor says somethinghe already understands. Do not let that per¬son be you. Enthusiasm is one thing — ego¬tism another. The competent professor canshut the baboon up in a hurry. Usually, aslicing rebuff will suffice. I have known oneprofessor who would stand behind the ba¬boon while he was pontificating and makefunny faces, a la Chevy Chase. Other profes¬sors try to reason with the baboon. It rarelyworks. Baboons are as thick as they are longwinded.Don't try to write yourself onto the sylla¬bus — Great books classes often ask you toanalyze flaws in the writings of Plato andother five star philosophers. Come Spring,you will probably have written enoughpapers to discredit every major thinker inthe western tradition. From a wise profes¬sor come these words: “If you think he’smade a mistake, you can bet you don’t un¬derstand what he means.” When wTiting apaper, it is worth it to look before youleap.Go see Chicago as often as possible.If you want good grades, take classes witholder professors — As a general rule (em¬phasis on the equivocation), the older a pro¬fessor gets the more leniant he allows hisgrading policy to be. He is more sure of him¬self and competes less with his students. Hewill still give Ds and Cs, but the Bs startcreaping up with A-s.If you want close student/faculty relation¬ships, take classes with Harper Instructors— Harper Instructors are professors whohave just finished their doctorate at Chicago and get to teach here for two years beforehaving to look for jobs in places like TheCommunity College of Oshkosh. Generally(again, counterexamples exist), these arethe hardest working and most accessibleprofessors on campus. Like Rocky, theyhave got the eye of the tiger. With the moneythey get — something like $13,500 — theycannot help but be hungry.Prepare for winter — You have all heardabout it and you probably think you can takeit. You probably can but it will not be fun.It’s not the biting cold everytime you stepout the door. It’s not even the unremmitinggrey. Nor is it the fact that you can go formonths without seeing the sun. It’s the rou¬tine. It’s so easy to hibernate through thewinter, following the same dull pattern.People sleep more. Grades drop. Relation¬ships break up. No matter what the weatheris, it’s important to get uptown at least oncea week. Buy comic books. Build modeltrains. Play nerf basketball inside. Watchsoap operas. All Fall you should be storingup diversions like busy, little squirrels.Be prepared for winter snow.Don't hesitate to see a professor in his of¬fice — It’s part of a faculty member's job tobe helpful when you visit him in his office.Those who are chronically cold or unavail¬able are bad teachers. By attending hisclass you are automatically worth his othertime.A friend of mine once approached a pro¬fessor’s office door in Gates-Blake. Heheard whistling and papers shuffling inside.When he knocked the whistling stopped andall was quiet. After a few seconds he lookedthrough the keyhole and found the officeempty. He hung around for a while peeringthrough the keyhole. Eventually, he saw theprofessor emerge from his closet and returnto his desk. Fortunately, this professor whohides in his closet was offered a prestigiouschair at another university.No matter what your age. go out drinkingoften — This is not a plea for alcoholism,merely diversion. It’s up to you to chooseyour favorite spot, but if your underagethere are a few things you should know. Onweekends, Jimmy’s cards faithfully. Duringthe rest of the week you might get in if youare in a small group and you are discreet.The Cove by the Shoreland is more leniant.The Falcon and the House of Tiki on 53rd arehit or miss. Tiki, by the way, stays openlater than anyplace else in Hyde Park.Among liquor stores both Cornell Liquor on55th and Kimbark Liquor on 53rd are goodbets, though both card occasionally. Unfor¬tunately, most bars uptown are strict.Go to the Quantrell Awards Plaque whenchoosing professors — On the first floor ofHarper outside of room 130 is a plaque whichlists all the winners of the Quantrell Award.The award is given for excellence in under¬graduate teaching. Since the professor is 60percent of the class, it behooves you to picka few classes from these professors, regard¬less of the subject matter.Of course not all excellent professors havewon the Quantrell. In the sciences, the view•• Vv* -. -■ • ’•►■"J . •• • v *v - a U of C educationof courses gives an excellent description ofmost of the professors one is likely to have.In the humanities and social sciences, how¬ever, the coverage is pathetic. It might beuseful, therefore, to list a few of the profes¬sors in those divisions whose courses arecertain to be outstanding: Snyder in Art;Mast in Film: Bloom and either of theKasses in Humanities; Flemming in Philos¬ophy; Booth, Bevington, Wasiolek. Rosen¬heim, and Kinahan in English; MacAloon,and Zonis in the Social Studies; Smith in Re¬ligion; Levi in PERL; Karl, Weintraub,Gray, and Joynes in History; and the Ru¬dolphs and Cropsey in Political Science, this is hardly an exhaustive list. It only repre¬sents the prejudices of the many persons Ihave talked to. Nevertheless, if you takeenough courses with these professors, youwill graduate very well educated.Have fun — It may sound like silly advice,but because this is first and foremost a grad¬uate institution, there is a built in biasagainst certain types of fun, like singing,dancing and getting silly drunk. Anythingthat crosses the narrow path of education isapproached with caution. Even films, theentertainment hub of the University, are an¬alyzed as educational opportunities.FAREASTKITCHEN1656 E. 53rd. • 955-2200Tues. - Sun. 11 a.m.— / a.m.Closed Mon.Cantonese, Szechuan, MandarinA Full Bar,Including Our Own FamousTropical DrinksSPECIALTIES INCLUDE:• Kung Pao Chicken (hot, spicy)• Mongolian Beef• Szechuan Scallops• Sa Dea Beef (spicy)• Duck & Noodles• Hot & Sour SoupMotor Credit Cords AcceptedThe Chicago Maroon—Friday, September 24, 1982—11.*v-J*HealthStudent Health offers range of servicesPHOTO BY DAN BRESLAUIf you have time to be sick, the University Health Service offers most medicalservices. Students can also take advantage of the Mental Health Clinic and Gyne¬cological Clinic.By John CollinsThe University boasts an extensive healthcare system designed to meet the medicalneeds of its students and their dependents.University Health Services handles all stu¬dent health problems ranging from minorills to major medical crises. As a studentyou are entitled to free routine medical careat the Student Health Clinic, the StudentMental Health Clinic and the GynecologyClinic.The medical clinic is located on the cornerof 59th and Ellis on the first floor of BillingsHospital and is open Monday through Fri¬day from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Students areseen in the clinic on both an appointmentand walk-in basis. Students whose medicalneeds are not pressing would be well ad¬vised to make an appointment to see theMedical staff rather than wait with thosewalk-ins who are seen on a first come-firstserved basis. The wait to see medical per¬sonnel can be long and very tedious so bringa good book to read.The clinic serves as the treatment areafor most of the ills of the University commu¬nity and should be the first place that a stu¬dent with a medical problem visits. If treat¬ment other than what the health service canprovide is required the clinic will send stu¬dents to the appropriate areas and will takecare of the tangle of red tape that often ac¬companies a hospital visit.Staffed by a large and competent staff ofnurses, doctors and nurse practitioners, themedical personnel of the Student HealthClinic include specialists in dermatology,endocrinology, gynecology, clinical nutri¬tion, and orthopedics.The Student Mental Health Clinic locatedat 5743 S. Drexel Ave. is open Mondaythrough Friday from 8:30a.m. to 5p.m. TheMental Health Clinic is staffed by a team of psychiatrists and psychiatric socialworkers. The service is designed to help stu¬dents work out the various problems thatstudents have in adjusting to a new environ¬ment, coping with life at the U of C and withlife in general. The service is not meant tohelp students with severe mental problems,but instead to aid the mainstream of the stu¬dent population. Those students who havesevere mental problems are usually putunder the care of a psychiatrist.Use of the facility as with all of the ser¬vices of the Health Clinic is a private matterbetween a student and his/her doctor. Stu¬dents who have used the facilities have gen¬erally found it to be a helpful.The U of C Hotline is another service pro¬vided for students who may need someone totalk to. The Hotline is run by student volun¬teers who have undergone extensive train¬ing in listening and crisis intervention. Theylisten to student problems, provide under¬standing and also refer students to thoseservices which are needed most. They areavailable from 7 p.m. to 7 a.m. everyday ofthe week. In addition to providing an earthey also give out information about Univer¬sity activities and Chicago activities. Allcalls are kept confidential.The Gynecology Clinic helps women withthose problems associated with the femalebody and also offers courses for women andtheir partners about birth control. The clinicis located in The Chicago Lying-In Hospitalroom 100.If a student becomes ill at a time when theStudent Health Clinics are closed there isalways a doctor available to deal with stu¬dents. The Physician-On-Call can bereached by calling the Billings Emergencyroom, University Telepage, the U of C Hot¬line or Campus Security, which also pro¬vides transportation to and from the UCHC if desired. The doctor on call will be able togive you instructions, reassurance or even apersonal visit. If your illness is serious thePhysician-On-Call will be called into theEmergency Room at Billings Hospital to at¬tend to your needs.The University of Chicago Hospitals andClinics is ready to help you in any of yourmedical needs.

Security will respondto such a call usually in less than a minute.A student who sees suspicious persons orsigns of a crime occurring should also pickup the nearest white phone. The phones canalso be used to contact security if someoneis ill or injured and needs to be taken to thehospital, or for such non-emergency situa¬tions as getting into a locked Universitybuilding, or to call for umbrella coverage.WhistlestopAt all times, students should carry a whis¬tle to alert others and the police if a crime isoccurring. If you hear whistles, blow yourown whistle or, if you are near a phone, callSecurity or Chicago police at 911. The whist¬les are sold at Reynolds Club and IdaNoyes.Public TransportationThere are three means of public transpor¬tation between Hyde Park and downtown:the Illinois Central Gulf <IC> commutertrains, the elevated trains (the El), and citybuses.Of the three, the IC is the safest, the quick¬est and the most expensive. The two stationsnearest campus are at 55th-56th-57th streetsand 59th St. Because the 59th St. station is astop for both local and express trains, while57th is only a local stop, you are likely tohave a shorter wait for a train at the 59th St.station. However that station has been thesite of a series of rapes and muggings. Itwould be best to get a schedule, and not ar¬rive at the station much before the train.One disadvantage of the IC is that it goes nofurther than Randolph Street in the Loop; ifyou want to go up to the North Side, you willhave to pay again to take a city bus or El.The $1.25 IC fare will remain until Febru¬ary.The El is the least safe way to get in andout of Hyde Park. Two El lines serve theSouth Side — the Jackson Park-Howard lineand the Lake-Dan Ryan line. The JacksonPark-Howard line is the closest to campus;its nearest stop is on Garfield Avenue abouta mile west of campus. The Lake Dan Ryantrain stops at Garfield and the Dan RyanExpressway, a couple of miles farther weston Garfield. To reach either station, take the55th St./Garfield Bus — neither stop is asafe walk. Try not to travel on either alone,especially at night, and take the Dan Ryantrain when possible. Make sure that you areeither on the B-train of either line, or a trainthat makes all stops, especially when com¬ing back from the city. Otherwise you willovershoot your stop. Fares are now 90 centsfor the basic fare, and 10 cents more for thetransfer for the bus to get to the station.Financial aidContinued from page eightment affects Pell Grants, Federally InsuredStudent Loans, and Work/study as well asseveral smaller programs. Schools may bepressured to persuade students to complywith the amendment.Eleanor Borus, associate director of Col¬lege Aid at the University of Chicago, saidthat her office does not use Social Securitynumbers but relies on the six-digit studentidentification numbers. She did say that allfederal loans are processed in an office inCalifornia, and “all Selective Service wouldhave to do is get their (computer) tapes.”Early reports said that the Selective Servicehad planned to match its records with thoseof the Social Security Administration, but aspokesman for the latter said that the SocialSecurity numbers are strictly confidentialand that the information would not be“simply handed over” unless certain lawswere changed.The amendment has sparked a furor withchallengers saying that it forces learning in¬stitutions to act as law enforcement agen¬cies for the federal government while thesponsor of the bill argues that there is “noreason why persons should benefit from thegovernment when they are not willing toregister.”It should be noted that you can always askfor Conscientious Objector status should adraft begin, and that the first cases againstpersons who did not register for the draftwere resolved against the defendent. City busses are relatively safe and cheap,if you have the time to wait for them. Cutbacks have made it more and more difficultto move in the city using them. Most expressbusses, such as the Jeffrey Express fromHyde Park to the loop, are still running, butcost 10 cents more for a return trip from theLoop. Student employmentContinued from page nineare still ways to work and gain personal sat¬isfaction by volunteering one’s time. The Uof C has many opportunities for volunteerwork. Those students interested in medicineor in just helping may benefit from the Uni¬ versity of Chicago Hospitals and Clinics vol¬unteer program. Volunteers are requestedto work at least 3-4 hours per week anytimefrom 8 to 12 midnight. Another volunteerbureau is the Blue Gargoyle. The Gargoylehas positions for tutors, recreational aidsand many other services. Students who areinterested in volunteering their time oughtto contact one of these agencies...

MarilynCarlstrom of the lab summarized the find¬ings.“We found that most students are at leastopen to discussion about religion. This con¬tradicts the stereotype of their being too in¬tellectual, not interested, or 'above' reli¬gion.” Carlstrom added that campusministers here are “more than happy to dis¬cuss religion, intellectual, and personal sub¬jects. They have a lot to give.”Along with their active clergy, campus or¬ganizations offer a wide variety of facilities,service programs and social activities.Campus organizations include:Baptist Campus Ministry5600 S.

Ellis Ave.924-4520Saint Stephen’s House is an ecumenicalmulti-purpose center open to students, fac¬ulty, and staff of the University as well asthe community at large. It is a center ofspirituality with planned “Quiet days,” re¬treats, and “Days of Reflection.” Periods ofsilence are set aside for people who wish tospend a quiet period. Morning and EveningPrayer and a Eucharist is said daily in theHouse Oratory (chapel). The House is avail¬able for meetings, discussions, and as acenter of hospitality.

And, although certain items may beavailable only downtown or further north,it’s always a good idea to check out thestores in Hyde Park first, where you’ll findthe following and a lot more:Banks: Unless you already have a Chica-go-area bank account you should open one;Midway Travel, for one, will not accept out-of-town checks. You can let the accountsstay open over the summer even if you willnot be around, which eliminates having toopen a new one every fall. The Bursar’s Of¬fice offers student accounts, but there is nochecking so you have to draw out cash topay for everything. A better idea is to open achecking account at one of the two HydePark banks that offer this service. The HydePark Bank and Trust Company, on 53rdStreet and Lake Park looks as if it has beenbrought in from the last century but has thelatest in banking, including drive-up win¬dows, a Cash Station, and an office in the Co-Op. Many students prefer the UniversityNational Bank, however, because it re¬quires a lower minimum balance and iscloser to campus (55th Street and Ken¬wood). It also has walk-up and drive-in win¬dows, but with shorter hours, and generallyshorter lines.Bicycles: If you can avoid the infamousholes in the roads and your roommate doesnot object to youi storing your three-speedin your room, a bike can be a good way toget around. Just be sure it is well chainedand covered if you leave it outside. To buy orrepair your bike go to Art’s Cycle and HobbyShop (1637 East 55th Street) or The Spokes¬man (5301 South Hyde Park Boulevard),which is not only larger but will rent bikesand skates for an hour or a weekend.Cards: If you almost-but-not-quite forgotyour roommate’s birthday or Mother’s Day,you can try the University Bookstore, whichhas a fairly varied assortment of cards. Forgreater variety try The Card Nook (1456East 53d Street), Doralee Ltd. (1538 East55th Street), or the House of Cards (1301East 53rd Street). All are Hallmark stores,and you can get a gift and wrapping paper atthe same time.Clothing: While most students come fairlywell supplied, it can be helpful to knowwhere to go if you suddenly need a suit,warmer outerwear (you can never have too(much in Chicago), or jeans to replace theones that are beyond patching. There aremany places go go in Hyde Park, from Wool-worths to second-hand shops to clothingstores like these: Cohn & Stern (1502 East55th Street), the largest men’s store in HydePark, can outfit guys from head to toe inshirts, blazers, tweed jackets, flannel pants,jeans, down jackets, gloves, and a vast se¬lection of sweaters and shoes. Next door isFritz on 55th (1500 East 55th Street) whichcarries women’s apparel including coats,suits, dresses, blouses, skirts, hosiery, lin¬gerie, and hats. Both of these are in theHyde Park Shopping Center with City Girl(1536 East 55th Street), which carrieswomen’s coordinates, sportsclothes,dresses, sweaters, lingerie, hats, and lots ofaccessories.Further east are D.W. Dress Street <1703East 55th Street) and Emily’s Smart Shopfor Women (5500 South Lake Shore Drive);the latter carries casual and dressy clothingin misses sizes, including suits, coats, andknits. The Betty Helen Shoppe at 1512 East53rd Street carries some contemporaryclothing and also sells blouses, skirts andother items from twenty years ago andmore.Cookware: Freehling Pot & Pan Company(5210 South Harper) has an incredible arrayof cookware from tiny cookie cutters andtart pans to steamers and bread bowls.Copies: There is always the U of C CopyCenter located just behind the Bookstore, aswell as smaller places in the Social Scienceand Classics Buildings and the ten-cents-a-copy machines everywhere. Or you can goto the Harper Court Copy Center at 5210South Harper, which offers a full range ofcopying and printing services, and is oftencheaper, to boot.Drugs: Illegal and/or illicit drugs areyour own business. Over-the-counter and prescription drugs can be bought in severalplaces, such as the University Bookstoreand Woolworth’s, which also sell toiletriesand cosmetics, and most of the food storessell aspirin, cold remedies, toothpaste,andso on. For prescription drugs and a betterselection you should go to one of HydePark’s many drug stores, the closest ofwhich are the Walgreen’s at 55th Street andLake Park and the Hyde Park Drugs at 1207East 53d Street, which is fairly small. Thereis also the Katsaros Pharmacy (1521 EastHyde Park Boulevard) and Kim VillageDrugs (1527 East Hyde Park Boulevard),the biggest in the neighborhood. You canalso get prescriptions filled at Billings for astudent discount, but the prescription has tohave been written by a staff member.Dry Cleaners: There are basically two inHyde Park, Wright Laundry (1315 East 57thStreet) and Exclusive Cleaners (1309 East57th Street, 1442 East 57th Street, 1340 East55th Street, and 1553 East Hyde Park Boule¬vard). There is also Quad Valet Shop at thenorth edge of Hyde Park at 1649 East 50thStreet.Fabric: Woolworths has some sewing no¬tions and patterns and sells fabric in two-to-three yard lengths. The recently renovatedSewing Circle (5225 South Harper) has beenslow to return to its well-stocked prime.Florists: The best place in Hyde Park isMitzie’s Flower Shop (1308 East 53d Street)which sells both cut flowers and plants. Thesalespeople tend to be brusque and theprices are steep, but they will send FTD ar¬rangements. The other major florist is S.Y.Bloom Florist at 1443 East 53 Street. Plantscan be had at Plants Alive (5210 SouthHarper) who can probably tell you what todo for a sick plant. If you are short of moneycheck out the Co-op and Woolworth’s, expe-cially when they have a sidewalk sale.Groceries: This is for the lucky ones with¬out a meal contract or for anyone who wantsto cook on Saturday night or stock upagainst midnight munchies. The best placesin terms of selection and low cost are theHyde Park Co-Op (55th and Lake Park) andMr. G’s (1226 East 53rd Street). The Co-opgets very crowded on Saturday morningsand after 4:00 p.m., but early Sunday it isalmost empty and it is less crowded mid-af¬ternoon as well. There is an outlet of theHyde Park Bank and a Post Office in thebasement. Mr G’s is smaller buts so are thelines. It’s a family-run place, hence a bitsmaller and friendlier than the Co-Op. Bothstores offer check cashing cards.PHOTO BV DAN BRESLAUCampus FoodsFor a quick, slightly more expensive bagof groceries, try Campus Foods (1327 East57th Street), Harper Square Food Mart(1455 East 57th Street), Melody Finer Foods(1600 East 53rd Street), Pete’s Food Mart(1646 East 55th Street), Poullman Flowersand Food (1467 East 53rd Street), Short StopCo-Op 1514 East 53rd Street), Stop & SaveGrocers (1742 East 55th Street), and theThai Oriental Market (1656 East 55thStreet), which also sells Asian food snacks.The Short-Stop Co-Op is a subsidiary of theHyde Park Co-Op. but the hours are better.If you just want good produce try the standunder the IC tracks at 51st Street. Fresh fishand seafood can be had at Jesselson’s Fish &Seafood House (1548 East 55th Street).Framing: We are not referring to local po¬litical practices, but to the Great Frame-Up(1428 East 53rd Street), where with a littleluck and guidance you can frame anythingfrom your sheepskin to a full-sized poster ofDarth Vader.Gifts: For last minute gifts or a browsethrough the eclectic, shops include AcasaGift Store, Inc.

There arealso hair stylists scattered all over greaterHyde Park who will do anything from a lighttrim to hair weaving: Arnie’s Hair Design(1525 East 53rd Street), East Park TowersBarber Shop (1648 East 53rd Street, former¬ly Hyde Park Barber Shop), Hair Perform¬ers (1621 East 55th Street), Hyde Park HairDesigners (1620 East 53rd Street, formerlyElizabeth Gordon Hair Designers), HydePark Hair Salon (1464 East 53rd Street, for¬merly Cain’s Barber Shop), The LookingGlass Ltd. il515 East Hyde Park Boule¬vard), Mildred’s Beauty Salon (5100 SouthCornell), New Faces Beauty Salon (5226South Harper), Paul’s Beauty Salon (5305Hyde Park Boulevard), Randell BeautySalon (5700 South Harper), Stylist BeautySalon (1635 East 55th Street), and the Win-demere Beauty Shop (1642 East 56thStreet).Hardware: Woolworth, Walgreen’s andthe Hyde Park Co-Op have a small, generalsupply, but the real place to go is Anderson’s Ace Hardware (1304 East 53rd Street),which also sells housewares and duplicatekeys. You can also try Berman’s Ace Hard¬ware & Paint* 1377 East 53rd Street) or theProgressive Paint & Hardware Company<1643 East 55th Street), but Anderson's se¬lection is the largest.Health Foods: House of Gandhi NaturalFoods (1457 East 53rd Street) is the mosttalked-about, but there is also SunflowerSeed Health Foods at 5210 South Harper.Laundromats: Most dorms have facili¬ties, which are usually in the basement anddo not always work, but have the advantageof 24-hour accessability. There are also sev¬eral laundromats around Hyde Park: Crys¬tal Brite Instant Laundry (1611 East 53rdStreet), Harper & 53rd Launder Koin (5230South Harper), Hyde Park Norge TownLaundry '1455 East Hyde Park Boulevard),and Kimbark Plaza Launderette (1218 East53rd Street). If you go to the College Laun¬dromat on 57th Street near the IC tracks,you can buy groceries, look for records, geta snack, read a pamphlet, or buy a few sec¬ondhand books while your clothes spin anddry.Liquor: Unfortunately, if you're an under¬grad, there's a good chance you're under¬age. For grads, however, this is no problem.Foremost Liquors at 1531 East Hyde ParkBoulevard is low priced and offers a wide se¬lection. There are also Lake Park Liquors(1526 East 55th Street), Lincoln Liquors(1516 East 53rd Street), Kimbark Liquors(1214 E. 53rd. St.) and the Wine and CheeseChalet (1505 East 53rd Street). The Co-Opalso sells liquor and Jimmy’s will sell coldbeer and other packaged liquors in case youwant a bit of something to keep you warm onthe way home.Money: Assuming you have a checkingaccount, you can pay for many things on-campus with a check and proof of matricu¬lation (i.e. a valid ID). To get cash, you cango to the Bursar’s Office in the Administra¬tion Building and cash a personal check (nota paycheck) for up to $50.00 with a servicecharge of 25c If you bank at the Hyde ParkBank or University National Bank, you arebetter off going up there for money. It iswise to get rolls of dimes for copiers androlls of quarters for laundry and vendingmachines and for those electronic gamesthat bleep in most dorms’ basements. TheHyde Park Co-Op and Mr. G’s offer check-Continued on page 26Checking the check policiesEven if you are on a full scholarship withroom and board and free laundry service,you are going to need money for the littlethings in life like vending machines, elec¬tronic games, and Saturday night uppers.This is where a checking account comes inhandy, and it is even better to have a Chi¬cago or Illinois checking account becausesome places (Midway Travel, Betty HelenShoppe, Emily’s Smart Shop for Women)will accept only Illinois checks. On campus,you can pay for many things with a checkand proof of matriculation (i.e. a validUCID).Many Hyde Park shops will accept checksfor the amount of purchase only with one ormore of the following pieces of identifica¬tions valid UCID, driver’s license (someshops insist on Illinois licenses), and amajor credit card. By “major” they refer toMasterCard, American Express, or Visa.Be sure to check before you write yourcheck, because some stores have differentpolicies. For instance, the House of Gandhiwill not accept checks and at the BettyHelen Shoppe the check must be for over$5.00. The Walgreens in the Hyde Park Shop¬ping Center will accept checks for theamount of purchase only (not exceeding$25.00) with two forms of identification.If you are food shopping, both CampusFoods and the Harper Square Food Martwill accept an Illinois check for the amountof purchase with a valid UCID or an Illinoisdriver’s license At Mr. G’s you can applyfor check cashing privileges; after a waitingperiod of two to three weeks you can write acheck for the amount of your purchase up toa certain limit. It is somewhat close¬mouthed about its exact policy, and asks fordriver’s license, major credit card, and proof of address; a valid UCID can be usedThe policy at the Hyde Park Co-op is some¬what more complicated: to apply you mustpay $3.00 and show three forms of identifica¬tion. That day you may write a check for upto $20.00 worth of groceries, and every weekafter that you may write one check for theexact amount of your purchase or up to$50.00 in cash. This continues through theapproval period (usually about six weeks),at the end of which you will receive a check-cashers identification card and may write acheck for the exact amount of your purchaseand cash a check for up to $50.00 every day.This policy also extends to the Short Stop Co¬op. and the card works there too. but youmust apply at the Hyde Park Co-op.You can also get cash (usually not morethan $10.00 > at a few other Hyde Park storesif you are a regular customer and registerwith the management A few which providethis service are Jimmy’s Woodlawn Tap,Hyde Park Office Supply, the SunflowerSeed Health Food Store, and Cooley'sCorner. Remember that a bad check at anybusiness not only costs you $5.00 or $10.00 inservice charges but will probably get youblacklisted.For the student on campus the easiestplace to get cash is the Bursar’s Office in theAdministration Building; it will cash a per¬sonal check (not a paycheck) for up to $50 00with a 25c service charge, provided youhave a valid ID If you bank at the HydePark Bank or University National Bank,you are better off going up there for money.And it is always a good idea to get rolls ofdimes for copies and rolls of quarters forlaundry an vending machines and for theelectronic games that beep and blip in mostdorms’ basements.The Chicago Maroon—Friday, September 24, 1982—15University HistoryBy Darrell WuDunnThe first and most important, as it seemsto me, is to found a great college, ultimatelyto be a University, in Chicago. We need inChicago an institution with an endowment ofseveral millions with buildings, library, andother appliances equal to any on the contin¬ent.Frederick T. Gatesa founding member of the Universityof Chicago, 1888When Gates, William Rainey Harper, andThomas Goodspeed approached John D.Rockfeller for money to help establish whathas now become the University of Chicago,Rockefeller was skeptical of the viability of equipped college. Eventually he would do¬nate nearly $35 million of his “surplus” tothe venture.Harper’s UniversityFor Harper, however, the idea of a collegehad already developed into the idea of a uni¬versity. Harper, a professor of Hebrew atYale who had received his doctorate thereat age 18, was appointed by the Board ofTrustees as Chicago’s first president. He in¬sisted that the institution be a full universi¬ty, with a faculty and facilities sufficient forthe pursuit of advanced studies and re¬search.In June of 1890, the University of Chicagowas incorporated as a co-educational insti¬tution. The articles of incorporation spokeStudents taking comprehensive examinations en massea major university in Chicago.After all, an earlier ‘University of Chica¬go' had existed for only 30 years before itsfinancial collapse. Incorporated in 1857 andlocated on land donated by Sen. Stephen A.Douglas on Cottage Grove Ave. near 35thSt., it conferred a total of 312 degrees beforeclosing its doors in 1886.Eventually Gates, Harper, and Good-speed convinced the oil entrepreneur thatthe American Baptist Education Societyshould establish a strong college in Chicago.If this plan were successful, then the estab¬lishment of a full-scale university could beconsidered later.Students at Regenstein“So many claims have pressed upon me. Ihave not really needed a University to ab¬sorb my surplus,” Rockefeller wrote in aletter to Harper. “Of late I had rather cometo feel that if Chicago could get a College,and leave the question of a University until alater date, that this would be more likely tobe accomplished,” he wrote.Hence Rockefeller contributed $600,000 ofthe initial $1 million endowment for a well- not of just a college but of a “University, inwhich may be taught all branches of higherlearning.”Thus the College was founded as just onepart of an entire university. Unlike mostother institutions which begin as an under¬graduate college and then expand into a uni¬versity with affiliated graduate and profes¬sional schools, the University of Chicagowas born as a center for both graduate andundergraduate education.During the first years of the University,undergraduates attended two colleges — atwo-year junior college and then a two-yearsenior college — collectively known as theColleges of Art, Literature, and Science.Harper viewed the traditional freshman andsophomore years as really an extension ofsecondary school education. Under the fixedjunior college curriculum, all students stud¬ied languages, science and mathematics,and most students studied English and his¬tory. Electives were very limited.In the senior college, students began tospecialize and prepare for graduate study.During his years in the senior college, “thestudent gradually changes from the Collegeatmosphere to that of the University. Dif¬ferent motives incite him to work,” accord¬ing to Harper.Harper also introduced the Quarter Sys¬tem in which four graduation ceremonieswere held each year. He believed that a stu¬dent should “receive his diploma not be¬cause a certain number of years had passedand a certain day in June had arrived, butbecause his work is finished.”In 1907, Harry Pratt Judson, the first deanof the College, succeeded Harper as presi¬dent of the University. Judson placed moreemphasis on pre-professional training thandid Harper. He envisioned a one-year, gen¬eral education junior college followed by athree-year senior college for specialization,but his plan was never realized. Judson did not believe that vocationaltraining would conflict with the concept ofgeneral education. It is “quite possible toobtain a general culture in a collegecourse,” he said, “and yet plan a good partof the work so thhat it will lead directlytoward a profession already chosen.”Troubled TimesHowever, like Harper, Judson viewed theUniversity as primarily a graduate institu¬tion in which research was most important.During his administration, graduate stu¬dents began teaching in the College. Facultyinterest in the College was virtually non-ex¬istent. In the period from 1918 to 1920, atten¬dance at College faculty meetings averagedunder ten. Teaching students declined as aresult.The 1920s saw a dismal decline of qualityand organization of the College curriculum.Courses offered by the different depart¬ments were uncoordinated and hence stu¬dents took a combination of courses with nocommon foundation of basic general educa¬tion.“Generally students didn’t discuss intel¬lectual matters because they didn’t haveanything in common to talk about,” saidAaron Brumbaugh, a former dean of theCollege.The quality of the College declined to thepoint to which its dissolution was being dis¬cussed. The College continued, however, be¬cause, as Chauncey Boucher, dean of theCollege during the late 192Qs, explained, itprovided the departments with an opportu¬ The Hutchins CollegePreceding the adoption of that plan, theadministrative structure of the Universitywas reorganized. In 1930, one year alterHutchins took office, the College, and thefour Divisions of the biological sciences, thephysical sciences, the social sciences, andthe humanities were founded.The ‘College’ however covered only thefirst two years of work, formerly the periodof the junior college. The graduate divisionstook over from the old senior college and thethird and fourth year curriculums weremore closely linked to the graduate pro¬grams.A separate and antonomous College facul¬ty was established. Each College course hadits own staff which would plan and teach it.Independent study was encouraged andclass attendance was made voluntary.Hutchins introduced his universal schemeof education to the College curriculum.“Education implies teaching. Teaching im¬plies knowledge. Knowledge is truth. Truthis everywhere the same. Hence educationshould everywhere be the same.”The course of study in the College consist¬ed of “the greatest books of the WesternWorld, and the arts of reaching, thinking,and speaking, together with mathematics,the best explainer of human reason,” saidHutchins. Such a curriculum would “endurethe elements of our common human na¬ture.”Under the new plan, uniform comprehen¬sive examinations were instituted. Studentscould proceed at their own rate and couldWMmA TRADITION90 years of ttnity to select promising research students,it brought in revenue which helped pay forresearch and graduate education, and it at¬tracted contributions from its alumni, whotended to be wealthier than the graduateschool alumni.Judson’s successor as president, ErnestDeWitt Burton, wanted to separate the Col¬lege from the rest of the University by mov¬ing it south of the Midway with own faculty,facilities, and budge. The plan was debatedextensively and it was not until Burton’ssuccessor took office when the decision wasmade to keep the College as an integral partof the University.During Burton’s tenure, the College’s firstsurvey course evolved. Dean of the CollegeErnest Hatch Wilkins introduced “The Na¬ture of the World and of Man,” a two-quarter sequence featuring lectures by lead¬ing scientists. Its success spurred otherdepartments to design similar programs.Comprehensive ExaminationsIn 1928, President Max Mason appointedBoucher as chair of a committee to studythe reorganization of the undergraduatecurriculum. The committee’s recommenda¬tions were drastic. It called for the abol¬ishment of the credit system under whichstudents graduated after completing a cer¬tain number of course hours. Instead stu¬dents would have to pass comprehensive ex¬aminations. Junior college students wouldbe required to take exams in English, aforeign language, science, mathematics, so¬cial science, and an elective comprehen¬sive. To earn a degree from the senior col¬lege, a student would need to pass an examin his major field and one in a minor.The day before the faculty was to discussthe Boucher committee report, however,Mason resigned as president. Three yearslater, a “New Plan” similar to the reportwas adopted for the ColLege under Chancel¬lor Robert Maynard Hutchins. take an exam whenever they felt ready forit. Graduation from the College requiredpassing seven exams: English composition,biology, physical sciences, humanities, so¬cial sciences, and two elective sequenceswhich represented a second full year ofwork in two of the four general areas. Math¬ematics and a foreign language were alsorequired but most students fulfilled those re¬quirements from high school. In fact in¬struction in mathematics was not even of¬fered in the College; students could meet therequirement only through the home studydivision.In 1933, jurisdiction over the final twoHarper Library during midterms week of |mam16—The Chicago Maroon—Friday, September 24, 1982toa<5O.(t(tn^ University Historylast two years of high school and the twoyears of college) was officially recognizedas the ‘College.’A faculty curriculum review recommend¬ed in 1936 further undergraduate require¬ments. Fifteen comprehensives were need¬ed to graduate. Three in humanities, threein social sciences, three in reading, writingand criticism, three in a combination ofphysical and biological sciences, one in phi¬losophy, and two in electives. Furthermore,I students had to show proficiency in mathe-. matics and a foreign language.t Enrollment declined during World War II.^ This decline, however, did not stop the facul¬ty from once again instituting changes in theundergraduate education. In 1942 the two( and four year programs were combined and. a “Hutchins BA’’ was awarded upon com-h pletion of the two-year general education re-n quirement.At this time, mathematics, History of, Western Civilization, and general languagen courses were introduced., The two year “Hutchins BA,” however,!’ did not survive long. Other colleges, when^ considering applications to graduatee schools, could not view the two year BA asrepresenting more than two years work.Students who had spent three or four yearst_ at the U of C were not being given credit fors their extra time. Enrollment dropped signi-d ficantly as a result. quickly countered with its tutorial studiesand professional options programs, bothstill exist today.The Filbey Report met much student op¬position. Students demonstrated throughout1954 in front of Kimpton’s home and outsideof the faculty senate meetings. Despite theprotests, the report was enacted.Four years later yet another modificationof the College was made. Based on recom¬mendations of a Kimpton-appointed com¬mittee, the College was established as acomplete four year institution consisting oftwo years of general education, one year ofspecialization and one year of “free andguided elective.” Concentration require¬ments were limited to two and a half yearsof work.In addition, the College faculty regainedits power to determine the degree require¬ments for its various programs and to actu¬ally award the degrees.When Alan Simpson became dean of theCollege in 1959, he declared “we have bal¬anced the claims of specialized trainingagainst those of general education. We haveweighed the claims of individual choiceagainst an earlier faith in uniformity.”When Simpson took office, he immediate¬ly reduced the number of comps to ten, leav¬ing two years for each of humanities and so¬cial sciences, one year for each foreignlanguage, English composition, mathema¬tics, physical sciences, biological sciences,and two quarters of the history of WesternCivilization.Ar AUAM^CUr v/MANijithe College WMI Kimpton ends Hutchins BAIn 1951, when Lawrence A. Kimpton wasnamed chancellor, he said that the problemj with the College was that it was not relating[ to “the total American educationalprocess.” He soon decided to stop awarding, the Hutchins BA.In 1954, the Filbey Report, composed byVice President, Emery Filbey, added oneyear of specialization to the 14-comp BA pro-> gram. According to the report the bache-- lor’s degree was to be awarded jointly bythe College and the divisions thereby reduc-i ing the College’s autonomy. The CollegePHOTO BY WILLIAM MUDGEf past Winter Quarter. The Levi PlanIn 1965, however, Simpson resigned to as¬sume the presidency of Vassar, leaving thedeanship of the College vacant. Provost Ed¬ward Levi served as acting dean of the Col¬lege until a successor could be named.Although Levi was only supposed to act asan interim dean, he initiated some of themost radical changes in the structure of Col¬lege and its curriculum. He spent much timemeeting with faculty, students, and otheradministrators and discussing their views ofthe College.As a result of his deliberations, Levi pro¬posed a reorganization of structure of theCollege. He proposed that the College be di¬vided into five “collegiate divisions,” eachwith its own “master.”Levi aimed at providing a way for stu¬dents’ programs in the College to be moreclosely related to graduate problems. Hefelt tht general education must be integrat¬ed with specialized education. He wanted toprovide a machinery that would foster thisintegration, and in which graduate facultywould be attracted to teach at the under¬graduate level.Levi, based on the recommendation of afaculty search committee, appointed WayneC. Booth, professor of English, as the nextdean of the College. In turn. Levi and Boothappointed masters of the collegiate divi¬sions. Together they began to design a newcurriculum which would meet the goal ofgreater integration between specialized andgeneral education.Developing new general education se¬quences was first on the agenda. The LeviPlan called for “a year in common,” to en¬sure that all students shared some commoncore of experiences. It did not specify justwhat should be common.Booth and the masters developed a se¬quence known as “Liberal Arts I” which Mortimer Adler teaching humanities seminar. Adler began teaching in the Collegewhen he was 27.emphasized the broad latitude of materialsto be covered and of the teaching methods tobe used. This proposal was debated exten¬sively during the 1956-66 school year. Even¬tually the College Council, the policy mak¬ing body of the College faculty, decided on acompromise based largely on what had al¬ready existed.The curriculum established in 1966 has ba¬sically endured to the present. Four com¬mon core sequences — social sciences, hu¬manities, physical sciences, biologicalsciences — are required. The collegiate divi¬sion in charge of each common core se¬quence decides which courses are to be of¬fered.In addition, each collegiate division re¬quired two more extradivisional sequencesfor each of its students. Courses within thestudent’s major and electives made up theremainder of his degree requirements.The College TodayComprehensive examinations weredropped in favor of the credit system. Eachcollegiate division decided how manycourses were needed for graduation.Proficiency in a foreign language was nolonger required by students in the socialsciences collegiate division. Only this yeardid the social science division reinstate thatrequirement.As a result of the changes, facultymembers who previously only taught at thegraduate level began teaching undergradu¬ate courses. The once (or twice) antono-mous College became fully integrated intothe University. Today over 80 percent of theprofessors teaching in the College hold jointappointments in the College and graduateDivisions.Although the curriculum implemented in1966 has remained basically the same (com¬mon core sequences have been altered), theCollege faculty has never officially ratifiedit. The curriculum was originally adoptedon a one-vear trial basis. According to Jonathan Z. Smith, whostepped down as dean of the College thismonth, reorganization of the College’s ad¬ministration and perhaps of its curriculumis the major task facing the College facultyand new dean Donald Levine. “The politicalprocess of getting the faculty directly re¬sponsible for the College is the job ahead,”he said.Lorna Straus teaching Mammalian Biolo¬gyLevine will be given some direction thisfall when the committee on the organizationof the College, headed by Barry Karl, pres¬ents its report to the faculty.Students in dorm“The real job of the new dean,” Smithsaid, “is how to define in the College theequivalent of a departmental way of doingbusiness. The College does not recognize theexistence of departments. ' When the gradu¬ate English department decides that Shake¬speare be taught, “it damn well gets it,”Smith said. This is not true in the College.Levine, who received his Hutchins BA in1950 at age 19, will also be concerned withthe political process of the curriculum.“Getting it into open discussion,” Smithsaid, “getting a ratification of it” if indeed itis what the College faculty wants.Exactly what new developments will ariseduring the next few years cannot be antici¬pated. The changes proboably will not be asradical as those made in 1966 or during theHutchins era. One thing is certain, however,the College will be changed; it is a part of itshistory.MMThe Chicago Maroon—Friday, September 24. 1982—17meA<^<>KAGreek & American FoodOpen for Breakfast-Lunch -DinnerSouvlaki Mousaka PastitsioDolmades SandwichesSteaks Chicken & Chops20%Offwith purchase of $3 or wore per personoffer good thru Oct. 1519821335 E. 57* St 947-8309(Comer of 57th & Kenwood) 1mJ^ SQUAR5—=4FOOD & SPIRITSOpen for Breakfast-Lunch-DinnerSoups—Salads—AppetizersMore than 15 Colossal Sandwiches17 Entrees—Beverages—Desserts|$1 $1 off with purchases of $5 $1 jor more per personoffer good thru Octl51982| $1i lcoupon/visit $1 |Beer—Wine—Liquor(Old Style & Heineken on tap)1501 East 53rd St. Chicago.

Over the summer the Flying LoxBox, Cafe Enrico, and The Court Househave all closed, and there are those who stillmourn the passing of the Hyde Park CoffeeShop, the students’ 24-hour haven.However, over the past few years the vari¬ety of restaurants has increased. Now in ad¬dition to Chinese and Greek food you can getLatin American and Thai, and if you gettired of stuffed pizza you can go out for friedfish. The restaurants run the gamut fromclassy to grungy and from pricey to student-affordable, so there is a good selection tochoose from on a Saturday night, Thursdayafternoon, or Sunday morning.The following reviews cover the newest,most famous, and best restaurants in HydePark, and are probably as biased as the re¬views you would get from someone else. Ifyou want to go to a restaurant, the best wayto find out if you will like it is to check it outfor yourself!The Agora (5700 South Kenwood, enter on57th): Despite poor word-of-mouth thisplace is as popular as ever. Mostly Greekand American food, with good omelets andstiff prices. The only place in Hyde Park fortake-out gyros.Bonanza (5239 South Cottage Grove):Unreviewed.Buttone’s Ice Cream (1713V2 East 55thStreet): This tiny basement shop is a goodwarm-weather stop on your way to the Pointor when returning to the Shoreland from theReg. It’s a small place that mostly sellscandy, ice cream, hot dogs, and Buttone’s T-shirts.Butler’s (1411 East 53rd Street): In whatused to be Cafe Enrico, this new restau¬rant/bar has not been open long enough tobe reviewed.Casa Segunda (5211 South Harper): Thisrestaurant is owned by the same person whoowns the Medici and early reviews havebeen good. The cuisine is Latin American,and you can wash it down with one of 18beers or pitchers of sangria or margaritas.Chartwell House (4900 South Lake ShoreDrive): Located in the Hyde Park Hilton,this classy place has regular “StudentNights’’ which are not much help to thosetoo young to drink. The decor is pleasant,though the food may not be worth the highprices.Edwardo’s (1321 East 57th Street): Thefirst place in Hyde Park to offer stuffedpizza and a lot closer to campus than otherpizzerias. The stuffed spinach pizza is a le¬gend in its own time, and the managementprides itself on growing its own herbs. De¬finitely a place to try at least once a monthfor lunch or dinner, and if the front is toocrowded there is an alley door for take-out.Delivery is available for a nominal chargein the evening.Far East Kitchen (1656 East 53rd Street):If you are in a hurry get take-out; the ser¬vice is slow here. The American offeringsare skippable in favour of the best Chinesefood in Hyde Park, consistently excellent.Do not be put off by the tacky exterior; thefood is worth it.PHOTO BY DAN BRESLAUMorry’s DeliGiordano’s (5311 South Blackstone):Purists still insist on going to the north sidebut this place is quite good. This is the origi¬nal stuffed pizza, and there have been hotdebates about whether it is the best.Harold’s Chicken Shack (1346 East 53rdStreet): When Harold goes on vacation, theentire chain (this one is #14) shuts down. Take-out only, but the best chicken in HydePark. You can get light or dark meat or acombination, with fries, and there are sideorders of gizzards or livers. A Hyde Parklandmark.Harper Square Restaurant (1501 East53rd Street): The layout is careful and so isthe food. A good family place.Hemingway’s (in the Hyde Park ShoppingCenter, 55th Street and Lake Park): Chroni¬cally under-patronized, this restaurant hasbeen closing almost yearly for renovationsand a name change. This incarnation hasnot been reviewed, but in the past the onionsoup has been good.House of Chin (1607 East 55th Street):Very small but the food is good, especiallythe Egg Drop Soup. You can buy fortunecookies to eat on the way home. Very clean,which is more than can be said for the Houseof Eng (1701 East 53d Street, and no rela¬tion).Orly’sJane Lee Restaurant (1316 East 53dStreet): The popular (if expensive) egg rollsmake this one of the two most popular Chin¬ese restaurants in Hyde Park with Universi¬ty of Chicago students. Typically small andtypically worth a try; get a take-out of theegg rolls for late-night munchies.Kentucky Fried Chicken (1513 East HydePark Boulevard): Very inferior to Harold'sbut so USA it is almost red-white-and-blue.Mallory’s (1525 East 53d Street, 10thfloor): Elegant and expensive — a goodplace to bring your parents or to celebrate.The supper entrees are excellent and theSunday brunches are the best in Hyde ParkMallory’s has won raves from many Chica¬go reviewers.McDonald’s (1344 East 53rd Street): Stillcounting.Medici Pan Pizza (1430 East 57th Street):The atmosphere in this U of C institution isdark, cozy, and college-pubbv, and it is quiteobvious that people ignore the signs forbid¬ding carving up the furniture and walls.Known only slightly less for its burgers thanits Chicago-style pizza (eat in or take-out),they also have weekend brunches that havepeople lining up for fresh criossants andsqueeze-it-yourself orange juice. The mochaice cream pie is addictive.Mellow Yellow Restaurant (1508 East 53rdStreet): Word-of-mouth reviews are mixedabout this place, which is known for itsvarious crepes and traditional-style Frenchonion soup. It is surprisingly bright andcheery for a Hyde Park restaurant.Morry’s Deli (5500 South Cornell): A big¬ger version of the one on campus but just ascrowded at lunchtime. You can slso getbreakfasts here or mix up some dried-fruitand granola to much on. Here the mid-after¬noon special is a double dog with chips andan ice cream cone from the tiny soda foun¬tain on the south end. On Sundays you canbuy bagels and lox for brunch. A must.Morry’s Fried Fish Place (1603 East 55thStreet: This was the original Morry’s, whichclearly outgrew the tiny space. An averagedinner runs about $6, so it is a bit steep formost students’ everyday consumption, butworth a try if you like fried seafood. Nicky’s Pizzeria and Restaurant (1208East 53rd Steet): The pizza here is fondlyknow as “grease-soaked frizbees’’ and takesa lot of napkins to handle. New York stylethin crust, and they will deliver.Original Pancake House (1517 East HydePark Boulevard): Great for carbohydrateloaders, this is another International Houseof Pancakes and serves pancakes and waf¬fles plain to fancy.PHOTO BY DAN BRESLAUSalonicaOrly’s (5495 South Hyde Park Boulevard,enter on 55th Street): Elegant and with amenu that varies in both selection and price,so you can come with your parents, a date,or a group of friends. Be warned that thewait can stretch to an hour when it is busy.Prof. Popcorn’s University Popcorn Shop(1616 East 53d Street): What it says.Rainbow’s End (1453 East 53d Street): Atfirst all you see is the cookies, candy and icecream, but they have other things too andthere is a loft where you can sit to eat. Thefrozen bananas are excellent and this is theonly place outside of Marshall Field’s thatsells Swedish fish.Ribs ‘n’ Bibs (5300 South Dorchester):Some of the best ribs ever, cooked over real fo chicniCKory logs, or you can order chicken.

Take-out only butthere are benches to sit on while you wait.The shop is smoky and the prices are gettinghigh but it is long been in the Top Ten, so trvit.Salonika < 1438 East 57th Street): Long un¬derrated and trapped in the small, dirtyplace next door, they have now expandedinto the shop on the corner. Its Greek cuisinehas been good and inexpensive, and if theykeep that up they will outstrip the Agora.Seafruit (1461 East Hyde Park Boule¬vard): The fish may be overpriced but ac¬cording to a Sun-times review it one bf thebest seafood restaurants in the city.Tai Sam Yon <1318 East 63rd Street):Under no circumstances should you go herealone, and it would be better to take a frat orthe football team along This place is reallyin Woodlawn, so if you drive make sure thecar is insured. It has been called one of thebest Chinese restaurants in the city, so theprecautions are well worth the reward.Tipsuda Restaurant (1649 East 55thStreet): Not yet opened, but will featureThai cuisine, which is not for those withfaint stomachs and sensitive tastebuds.T.J.’s Restaurant (5500 South Lake ShoreDrive): Run by two men whose first initialsform the name. There is a separate bar.dark and cozy, and the dining room faces anoutside pool.Valois (1518 East 53d Street): The cafete¬ria's cafeteria, with food that is long onquality and short in price, which only pointsup the inedibility and w aste of the dormito¬ries’ food.

It follows that in the rari-fied atmosphere of Hyde Park there are noless than seven bookstores. Surprisingly, de¬spite overlapping stock and sometimes li¬mited space, each one has a very distinctpersonality, a particular one may appeal toyou but all are worth checking out. Somewill not carry textbooks, while others, par¬ticularly the Phoenix and Powell's, carryused texts and should be checked before yougo to the University Bookstore.The cat and friend at O'Gara’sThe Book Center (5211 South Harper):This store is geared to the tastes of HydeParkers; cards placed in each book and re¬moved when the book is purchased help thestaff to keep track of which books are in de¬mand and which ones people are not inter¬ested in. A fairly new computer system alsohelps. Some popular and recent fiction is inracks at the front, but only that which theowner, Jack Masoff, thinks has a redemp¬tive quality.The Book Center is fairly small and stocksmostly paperbacks, but has substantial sec¬tions of psychology, black history and litera¬ture, art, children's literature, and cook¬books. Its sections of mysteries and sciencefiction are very extensive, with complete ornear-complete lines of many authors. It alsostocks a number of classics (which Mosoffcalls “the old standards no one wants to giveany space to anymore’’) and there is a ubiq¬uitous section titled “reference.”You can be sure to find daily newspapershere, including The New York Times, and itstocks The Christian Science Monitor andthe Chicago Reader Starting in midsum¬mer. there is an extensive stock of calen¬dars. from Garfield to Boris. And it willplace special orders if you ask.• * *Joseph O’Gara’s Bookstore (1311 East57th Street): This is the oldest bookstore inChicago and home of Lady Jane Grey, HydePark's most famous and educated cat. Li¬brary-quiet and well organized, O’Gara’scan overwhelm you with the sheer size of itsstock. It is especially strong in academicareas, although the managers do not like tocarry textbooks, but you can find an ampleselection of paperback fiction from classicto trashy and there is an ever-growingscience fiction section that includes vintageissues of Analog.It is easy to lose yourself among the ceil¬ing-high stacks of books (ladders are pro¬vided so that you can climb up to retrieve aparticularly likely-looking volume) and thestaff is pleasantly tolerant of browsers. Al¬most every section is large and complete,but the American History section has beenparticularly noteworthy. This is not to slightthe other sections: art, biography, blackstudies, cinema, comedy, drama, history,psychology, sports, women’s studies; thegourmet can find shelves of cookbooks andbooks on wines.Even if you do not go into O’Gara’s on aregular basis, be sure to walk by and look at the displays in the large windows; the westone tends to have modern books while theeast one usually shows antique volumesfrom the rare book section of the store, oftensupplemented with photographs or prints.And if you want to sell your old books,O'Gara’s will buy them for one-fifth thecover price.* * *The Phoenix (basement of ReynoldsClub): In its second incarnation this non¬profit student-run organization seems to bedoing well. This is the first place to go forcourse books, especially for the Corecourses, as they have a healthy selection ofused books in stock. The books are dividedby subject and arranged more-or-less alpha¬betically by author. They also stock fictionand non-course material, and will buy yourold booksBesides books, the Phoenix stocks avaried array for records priced well belowlist and usually below other record stores.These are not used records, either and thePhoenix will place special orders (at theregular price) for any record you want. Itsstock generally includes blues, classical,folk, jazz, pop. and women’s music.As you walk in you will see a sampleWHPK T-shirt hanging over the desk, andon your left is the stock of war and fantasygames and their supplements. You can buynot only the basic games and books but diceand miniatures. It has also tried stockingtyping paper, notebook filler paper, graphpaper, pens and pencils, so you may want tocheck this out before going to the UniversityBookstore.* * *Powell’s BookstorePowell’s Bookstore (1502 East 57thStreet): A paradise for bibliophiles in theguise of a cluttered and disorganized attic.There is a system to the chaos, but it isalways changing and only the staff reallyknows where anything is. The only thingthat is easy to find is the box of free booksparked outside the door; even the cash reg¬ister may be hidden behind piles of books.This is a good place to start looking fortext books and related academic material,but do not stop there. Sections of theology,psychology, literary criticism, feminist stu¬dies, and business history are strong, andthe sciences are also well-represented. TheEuropean section not only includes thou¬sands of volumes in the major Europeanlanguages but an intricately-divided sectionon the different countries and historicalperiods. With some looking and help fromthe staff you can find books on almost any¬thing from Albanian history to zoology.That does not cover just academic areas;Powell’s has a surprisingly good fiction sec¬tion which has been divided up into popular fiction, mysteries, science fiction, and west¬erns. The latter section is a rarity and con¬tains a large number of titles, while thescience fiction section often includes everyone of the Star Trek books.Not all of Powell’s books are really used;some may be damaged or otherwise imper¬fect new books at used-book prices. It willalso buy your old books for one-fifth thecover price.* * *Seminary Cooperative Bookstore (5757South University, in the basement): Thestaff is smart; maps are posted every¬where. At first glance you may wonder whyanyone would need one in such a tiny place,but as you work your way farther back andfind more rooms and more shelves, you willbe glad they are there. Classical musicplays quietly as a fitting background to thevast shelves of literature, textbooks, andreferences.Many professors, particularly in the Hu¬manities or Social Sciences, have begunusing the Seminary Co-op more and more toorder textbooks for their classes, as it tendsto be more efficient and reliable than theUniversity Bookstore. The textbooks are allin a separate room, arranged somehow bysubject and alphabetically in a way that isas confusing to the neophyte as the generallayout. Several staff members are usuallywhom you can ask for help and who willshow you how to place special orders.Out in the general labyrinth you can findbooks as diverse as a cookie cookbook, achildren’s book in the original Chinese, andSylvia comic books, as well as esoterica likea Hawaiian dictionary. In the back is a wallcovered with the complete Penguin library,and a niche near the front holds film, femin¬ist, and gay studies. The history section islarge and has been subdivided into sectionsby subject and location, and there are size¬able sections in anthropology, linguistics,literary criticism, philosophy, and theology.It also carries some popular paperbacksand tends to have an extensive range of artcalendars.University BookstoreYou can purchase a share in the SeminaryCooperative Bookstore for $10.00 a share.This entitles you to such benefits as ten per¬cent off each purpose and the ability tocharge your purchases (due on the fifteenthof the following month). You also get ashare in any profits the bookstore makeseach year, and can special order any book inprint. If you no longer want to become amember, you can sell your shares back tothe Co-Op for the full price you paid. * * *Staver Booksellers (1301 East 57thStreet): The character of this place is aca¬demically-oriented but oozes refinementand culture. Not a place for textbooks, but ifyou want some of the more obscure andhard-to-find reference materials or mathe¬matics texts this should be your first stop.Many books are related by country and feware recent with the exception of very schol¬arly and esoteric tomes.Do not let this dissuade you; Staver’s is afine place to browse. The staff will even letyou unwrap a book if it is still in its heat-sealed plastic cover. There are quite anumber of classic children’s books here, aswell as some that should be classics, and arevolving rack holds an ever-changing sup¬ply of Dover’s exquisite coloring books. Youcan also get the complete Tintin and Asterixseries here, as well as fantasy-gaming sup¬plies.Grown-ups can find any number of bookson art and film as well as some film scripts.Classical, historical, and literary booksabound, and there is a section on Ameri¬cana. Even the fiction and mystery shelvesreflect the quality of the rest of the stock,and as a final emphasis they stock the NewYork Review of Books, the Times LiterarySupplement, and the daily London Times.* * *The University of Chicago Bookstore (5750South Ellis Avenue, entrance on 58thStreet): You will become familiar with thisplace whether you want to or not. Textbooksgo for top dollar here, which can mean listprice and then some. Better check a usedbookstore or watch for upperclassmen whoare selling off old books. If you do go to buyyour textbooks here, and make the mistakeof doing it the first few days of school, youhad better have a long temper and a lot oftime. The crowds are largest at this time,and the lines of people waiting to get theirchecks approved often interlaces with thoseof people trying to pay, clogging the aisles.If you are smart you will get only what youneed for the first week or two, and return forthe rest when things quiet down.Sharing the second floor with the textbooksection are the departments for school sup¬plies, toiletries, and U of C memorabilia.Here you can choose from a wide array ofcolors and sizes of ring binders, file cards,pens, and staplers, and you can choose froma dozen different types of typing paper,from el cheapo yellow newsprint to Disser¬tation Bond. You can also buy cards for alloccasions, stationery, toothpaste, shampoo,band-aids, U of C clothing, and more. A sep¬arate room houses the typewriter, camera,and electronics sections.The first floor, across from Morry’s, isrun by Stuart Brent who also runs StuartBrent Books downtown. For some reasonthis is where you have to come for referencebooks and bilingual dictionaries, not up¬stairs in the textbook section where youwould think to look for them. A number ofother scholarly subjects are well represent¬ed, particularly psychology and the Arts. Italso carries almost everything the Universi¬ty of Chicago Press has produced.The children’s literature section is verylarge, and the fiction section is undescrib-able. At first you may only see the wall ofpaperbacks — column after column of popu¬lar novels and science fiction novels andanthologies — but a bit of looking will un¬earth the classics and an unbelievableamount of hardcovers. By the doors is arack well stocked with all types of periodi¬cals, from newspapers to quarterly maga¬zines.The sheer size of the stock and peculiarsystem may send you running for the staffmembers, but they will not only help youlook but special order a book if it is not instock. Beware: the special orders are some¬times as chaotic as their organization.20—The Chicago Maroon—Friday, September 24, 1982WELCOME BACKTO MORRY'S DELI!—OUR NEWEST STORE LOCATED AT 5500 S.

If something should happen whileyou're here, you can go to G. W. Optome¬trists (1519 East 55th Street), or to Dr. Mor¬ton Maslov (1510) East 55th Street) or Dr.Kurt Rosenbaum (1200 East 53rd Street).Pets: You can usually get away with fish,turtles, and small animals that do not needwalking in a dormitory or if you have a no¬pets lease. It is a good idea to check withroommates about snakes, reptiles, and al¬lergies first. Basic supplies (including ge¬neric dog food and kitty litter) are availableat the Hyde Park Co-Op. For more particu¬lar needs or the actual animal try CanineCastle System, Inc. in Harper Court. If yourpet is sick the Hyde Park Animal Clinic isright next door; like most people doctorsthey are not open on Wednesdays.Photography: Hyde Park offers a numberof good opportunities — doesn’t everyoneneed a personal picture of Rockefeller Chap¬el, the Point, and the Main Quad? Not tomention such colorful student activities andgroups as IMs, MARRS, and E.F. Clown. Onthe second floor of the University Bookstorethere is a Photo Department that carriesmost major camera brands as well as acces¬sories and darkroom supplies. Able Camera(1519 East 53rd Street) is convenient tothose in north or east Hyde Park, and offersa fair range of equipment. By far the bestand most complete is Model Camera at 1342East 55th Street, which is a full-service cam¬era store offering equipment, accessories,and processing, and like Able can do on-the-spot passport photographs. Walgreens sellsfilm and does processing.Post Office: The one in the Hyde ParkCo-OP can only sell stamps and weigh pack¬ages. There is a station at the corner of EllisAvenue and 57th Street, but it is not our offi- cal office and does not provide any moreservices; plus, the attendants sometimesget nasty if you ask about packages or for¬warding address cards. The two offical PostOffices for most University of Chicago peo¬ple ~e the Jackson Park Post Office (60637)on st Street and the Hyde Park Post Office(60bi5) at 4Bth and Cottage Grove. Neitherone is in a good neighborhood, so go withfriends if you have to go. There are postboxes all over, including in the Shoreland,the Social Sciences Building, and the Ad¬ministration Building (under the stairs).Spin-lt record shopPrinters: All of these are pretty good;many favor the Harper Court Copy Center(5210 South Harper) which offers both copyservices and printing while others say thatthe fastest and cheapest is Maranatha Press(1745 East 55th Street). There are also Quik-Cross Printers (1525 East 53rd Street). JackE. Schwartz & Co.(5000 South Cornell), andthe U of C Printing and Copy Center behindthe University Bookstore. For personalizedstationary and engraved invitations, go tothe House of Cards (1301 East 53rd Street).Records: There are three good places inHyde Park, one of which, the Phoenix in thebasement of Reynolds Club, is student-run.For a small place their selection of books,records, and fantasy games is quite goodand their prices are very reasonable. Spin-lt guideRecord Shop (1444 East 57th Street) has awide variety of all types of music and willplace special orders. They regularly adver¬tise sales but there are unannounced bar¬gains lurking about and a box behind thewindow is full of posters that are free for theasking. Second-Hand Tunes (1701 East 55thStreet) buys and sells good used records ofall kinds, and sometimes you can come upwith a real find.Repair: For radios and TVs, try Ameri¬can Radio and TV Lab at 1300 East 53rd'Street or Havill’s Radio and Appliance at1368 East 53rd Street. For shoes go to Cor¬nell Shoe Service at 5244 South Cornell orHyde Park Shoe Rebuilder at 1451 East 57thStreet.Second-Hand: You never know what youwill find, or in what condition it will be.From Donny Osmond records to a wintercoat, from a back copy of Analog to a wig,you can find almost anything with somehunting. Just be sure to check for imperfec¬tions and come back often. There are fourstores on 53rd Street, but only two give ad¬dresses: The Hyde Park Resale Shop (1469East 53rd Street) and The Scholar Ship (1372East 53rd Street), the proceeds of whichbenefit the Lab School. The two others aresituated next to each other at about 1312East 53rd Street; one is creepy and dingybut the other is full of clothing and worthgoing through. Only the Scholar Ship has adressing room.Shoes: Woolworth has a good supply of in¬expensive sneakers, slippers, sandals, andso on. For boots and leather shoes try Cohnand Stern, Inc. and the Shoe Corral, both inthe Hyde Park Shopping Center on 55th andLake Park.Typewriters: If you want to buy a new orused typewriter or if your old one just needsfixing, you can go to one of two places inHyde Park. In East Hyde Park is A-ActiveBusiness Machines, newly located at 1633 E.55th Street. The University Bookstore also Bob’s News Emporiumhas a department which sells and servicestypewriters. Both establishments are fairlyinexpensive and very reliable.Yam: Needlepointers can get suppliesand have the finished work blocked,cleaned, and framed at Wild and Wooly(5210 South Harper). There is a $10.00 depos¬it on framing, but it tends to be reasonableand you get your choice of styles. Those wholike to knit or crochet can find some suppliesat Woolworth’s but all the yarn is acrylicand can be pretty cheap in both price andquality. For a real selection go to the YamBoutique (1747 East 55th Street); they stocka number of synthetic and animal hairyarns and pattern books.Miscellany : Harper Court Sports (5225South Harper), Hyde Park Office Products(1456 East 53rd Street), Linen World (5225South Harper), University Lock and Key(1656 East 55th Street) and the locallyfamous Big Jim’s Tobacco Shop (under theIC tracks at 53rd Street) are all pretty self-explanatory.Famous not just locally is Bob’s NewsEmporium at 51st Street and Lake Park.Greatly expanded in recent months, it hasthe most extensive periodical selection any¬where, from children's to XXX-rated, andhomesick New Yorkers can buy the SundayNew York Times here at midnight Satur¬day. Bob’s also sells paperbacks and otherthings and his News Emporium is a greatplace to browse through.mm SPECIAL BACK TO SCHOOL SALE!VE ON HYDE PARK’S FINEST SELECTIONS OF FINE WINES, CHEESES and IMPORTED BEERSSALE DATES: September 24th thru September 30thAll items listed below are 750 ml. unless stated otherwise.

In campus cafeterias, the sau¬sages are green, and the personnel statethat the meat is older than they are. If youeat in them, you have probably heard upper¬classmen (and women) refer to the food onthe same terms.For those of you wishing a more satisfying(or at least more identifiable) meal, or whowant a snack when the cafeterias areclosed, or who need a friendly place to getout of the snow, here are a few sugges¬tions:The Bakery: Freida has reigned here aslong as anyone can remember, although stu¬dents take over the evenings and on week¬ends. On the first floor of Ida Noyes Hall,this place serves about two dozen differenttypes of pastries, plus breads and cookies.Wash it down with coffee, tea, or milk, orsnack on yoghurt or scoops of Haagen-Dazsice cream in front of the color TV. Beware ofgoing in at mid-afternoon, however, whenthe area is overrun with Labbies.Blue Gargoyle (5655 South University):Still around despite rumours of closing thepast few years, you can get a reasonablypriced vegetarian lunch here. The menuchanges daily, but the soups are alwaysgood.Cobb Coffee Shop: As bleak and invitingas a surgical ward, this place is convenientto most classes and tends to get very crowd¬ed in the ten minutes between classes. Youcan get granola, pasteries, Paul Bunyancookies, sandwiches, yoghurts, cold drinks,milk, coffeee, and herb teas, and it is theonly place on campus that offers honey foryour tea. Cox Lounge : Home of the “General Hospi¬tal” groupies and located in the basement ofthe Business School. This sandwich shop isquite popular especially among businessschool students. Pastries and bagel-and-cream cheese sandwiches are served atbreakfast and sandwiches and giant cookiesare served for lunch, with assorted hot andcold beverages. Go early for best selection.C-Shop: Located across from the Reyn¬olds Club Box Office and meeting place formany, many people. Due to budgetary prob¬lems, the hours and menu are slightly hardto predict right now, but you can usually getin a lunch and dinner times for hot sand¬wiches, pizza, entrees, salads, munchies,pastry, and ice cream creations. Generousorders of french fries and the only place oncampus for soft pretzels.Divine Salvation: A dark, crowded placein a remote basement corner of Swift Hall,but a treasure worth hunting for. Aside fromthe usual pasteries, sandwiches, yoghurt,coffee, and a selection of teas you can selectfrom a wide variety of fruits, candy, andmini-cheeses for the long nights ahead.Ex Libris: Student Government’s trou¬bled moneymaker, this shares space onReg’s A-Level with vending machines andoffers a natural alternative to the vendedsnacks. Homemade breads and granola,juices, pastries, cookies, yoghurt, herb teas,and coffee are usual; you can also getcream cheese for your bread and sometimesfind unusual candy or gums. The adjoiningroomful of chairs and tables is popular forstudy breaks, vocal studying, or roundtablediscussions on the philosophy of IMs.Frog and Peach: Now under new manage¬ment (as is its sister, the Pub) and nobodyknow what changes will be made, if any. Inthe past the notoriously greasy burgershave been balanced by excellent entrees,fruit salads, and rice. The new manager campus eateriesowns Medici Pan Pizza and Casa Segunda,but has not commented on what he will do toto the two Ida Noyes establishments.II SSL..-.!Hutchinson CommonsHutchinson Commons: To the right as youwalk into Reynolds Club off of 57th, thisroom evokes the University of Chicago’searly elegance, and the atmosphere eitherreflects or enhances the good food. There isa varied menu for breakfast (beginning at7:00 a m.) and lunch, when Hutch is usuallymobbed.International House: You can get threemeals a day here, and according to reports the food is adequate and inexpensive. Sup¬posedly it also reflects the varied tastes ofthe inhabitants. To get in you have to pick upthe telephone and ask the person at the deskto let you in. Arrangements can be made forgroups.Morry’s: (at the bookstore) The customerarea is barely two people wide, so at lunch¬time the line spills into the hall and someonewalks down the line taking orders. On thefirst floor of the University Bookstore andserving not just basic deli food but yoghurt,ice cream fruit, cookies, frozen yoghurt, anddrinks, with a mid-afternoon special (hotdogs at 35C). Mysteriously, as at all Morry’s,everyone but the manager is Oriental.Nonesuch: Way up on the fourth floor ofWiebolt, this is deep in English Departmentterritory. You can munch breads andcheeses and drink coffee and tea, and if youtake the stairs you will see some fascinatingrubbings of medieval brasswork.Social Science Tea Room: Well hiddenfrom all except some office personnel, pro¬fessors, and graduate students, this room isreminiscent of an old, wood-panelled li¬brary. There is always a thick cloud of ciga¬rette and pipe smoke and a permanentgrouping of Plant Department guys, but ev¬eryone is friendly and you do not get thrownout until early in the evening. Pastries in themorning with cookies and brownies in theafternoon as well as coffee, tea, juices, andbagels and cream cheese all day. Becausethis is the only place on campus that brewsits coffee instead of drip perking, they offerthe best brew on campus.Weiss Coffee Shop: If you are studying inHarper you would do better to go out on thestairwell to eat, because this place on theMezzanine looks like an offshoot of Harper’sNorth Reading Room. The fare is basic: cof¬fee, tea, pastries, sandwiches, yoghurt.

Haslam is atransfer student from Texas A&M and whilein high school, Haslam was an all-districtplayer in Texas. He will be joined in thebackfield by Bill Jankovich at fullback, andrunning backs Bob Dickey and RogerMcCann. Jankovich rushed for more than600 yards last year to lead the team.McCann holds the school record of 92 yardsfor a kickoff return.Haslam’s receiving corps will includeDave Vucovich who has moved from quar¬terback to wide receiver, Reggie Mills, EricEllefson, tight end who led the team in re¬ceiving last year, and freshman Brian Don¬ovan.The offensive line has two returning let¬termen in Tom Lee at guard and MikeMarietti at center, and three freshmen,tackles Marty Salvino and Paul Gibbons,and guard Gary Vacha.Returning lettermen dominate the defen¬sive line. At tackle will be Steve Kapotis andJim Coy. Dave Rispler and John Steedmanwill start at end. All three linebackers,Bruce Montella, Todd Sandstrom, and Stew¬art Marin, are freshman. The other defen¬sive backs include Jim Josefowicz, DennisWerner, Gene Fador, and Da Kim, an Ober-lin College transfer and brother of four-yearMaroon starter Do KimIf Chicago is going to improve on lastyear’s record, it will have to recover fromits 0-2 start. In both of its games this year,the Maroons have been outgained in totalyardage and they not have held a lead in agame yet. Still remaining on the scheduleare Lawrence, a Division III semi-finalistlast year, and Ripon. a favorite for the Mid¬west Conference title.In order to have a successful season, theoffense will have to develop a balanced con¬sistent attack, something it lacked in theKnox game, and the freshmen will need toimprove in the positions they fill, especiallythe defensive backfield, where they predo¬minate.26—The Chicago Maroon—Friday, September 24, 1982 Spikers seekbetter recordBy Cliff GrammichLosing just two starters since last season,this year’s U of C volleyball team is lookingfor an improvement over last year’s disap-pointig 9-17 record. Those who are returningfrom last year’s young team will be joinedby at least six freshman players, all ofwhom were either recipients of or appli¬cants for the Dudley and Wilson scholar¬ships. In addition, two new second yearplayers will be joining the team this year.In volleyball, the play of a team consistsof defending against another team’s attack,setting the ball, and then attacking the set.Last year’s graduating members wereplayers who were defensive specialists. Re¬turning to the team are two setters whichCoach Rosalie Resch called among the bestin the area. Those who filled the role of at¬tacking players last year will also return.Also returning is a co-captain from lastyear’s team who was a defensive special¬ist.Coach Resch is enthusiastic about theteam’s prospects this year due to the team’sadded experience from last year, the strongadditions to the team, and what she calledgood pre-season practices.The Maroons should have some idea with¬in the first week of their season as to howrgood they will be this year. On the first date of the season, Chicago will face the IllinoisInstitute of Tecnology, which Coach Reschcalled exceptionally strong this year. At theGeorge Williams College Invitational onOct. 1 and 2, Chicago will oppose ElmhurstCollege, last year’s state champion and cur¬rently ranked number five in the nation, andOhio Northern, a perreninial power in Ohio.These tough tests within the first weekshould give the team some indication as tohow well it has improved since last year andhow well it will play this year.PHOTO BY DARRELL WUDUNNBig yardage gain for the Maroonsagainst Knox on Saturday.However, the blame for this incident cannotbe placed totally on the IM directors. Alarge part of the problem in that incidentwas the attitude with which the players en¬tered that contest.There seem to be two equally valid and di¬ametrically opposed views on the proper at¬titude towards intramurals. One states thatIMs are for fun, a chance to enjoy a breakfrom the pressures of the daily academicstruggles; the other states that IMs are aserious competition to be won. The conflictbetween these two philosophies is real. Inmy house last year, many good friendshipsw'ere strained or even broken over thisissue. I am not going to state which is right,nor am I going to advise you which way top’ y; what I will say is that I participatedand officiated many of the IM sports lastyear, and plan to do so this year because Ihave found great satisfaction in the pro¬gram. I also suggest that you try it. If you donot play any sport go out and watch yourhouse’s games. Watching your friends playis more enjoyable than watching your highschool play, and often you can help yourteam achieve victory against all odds. Playball. Team keeps hopeBy George SukulowskyAfter their first two games, the ChicagoMaroon have failed to match last year’s 1-1start, losing 27-15 in the opening game toGrinnell, and 17-3 in their home opener withKnox.In the Maroons’ opening game with Grin¬nell, Grinnell scored a touchdown almostimmediately at the beginning of the gamewith an 87-yard pass. But just 13 seconds leftin the first half, quarterback Don Haslamcompleted a 21-yard pass to freshman BobDonovan to tie the game at 7 at halftime.Grinnell scored two touchdowns rushingin the third quarter to take a 21-7 lead afterthree quarters. Just over a minute into thefourth quarter, Chicago scored on a safetyto cut the lead to 21-9. Donovan again scoredon a pass from Halsman for a touchdownwith just five minutes left in the game. Theconversion kick failed and Chicago trailed21-15.Grinnell iced the game with a touchdownwith three and a half minutes to go.Chicago’s rushing game was led by RogerMcCann, who gained 119 yards on 27 at¬tempts. Haslam’s leading receivers wereDave Vucovich, who gained 81 yards on fivereceptions, and Donovan, who scored bothMaroon touchdowns and gained 75 yards onsix receptions. Grinnell’s attack, led byReid who gained 214 yards and scored threetouchdown, was too much for Chicago, how¬ever.Last Saturday, Chicago hosted Knox atStagg Field in its home opener. U of C haddefeated Knox last year, and was trying toonce again win its home opener, which it didlast year with a 22-21 victory over Mon¬mouth. Knox scored first when, late in thefirst half, running back Rick Brown scam¬pered 45 yards for a Knox touchdown to takea 7-0 lead. With just 28 seconds left in thefirst half, Chicago kicker Bob Dickey con¬nected on a 28-yard field goal to cut Knox’slead to four at 7-3.However, less than five minutes into thefourth quarter, Knox expanded its lead toseven with a 25-yard field goal. Knox put thegame away with a 13-yard scoring pass.Vucovich again had a good game for theMaroons, gaining 100 yards on five recep¬tions. However, the Maroons had very littleother offense, and Knox, led by Brown’s 153yards rushing, dominated the game throughits offensive rushing attack.Chicago’s next game is on Saturday at1:30 p.m. at Stagg Field against Concor¬dia.serious funBy Andy WrobelBecause so many different intramuralsports exist at Chicago, they have becomean integral part of many students’ lives. Inthe fall, many students participate in touchfootball, ultimate frisbee, the Thanksgivingturkey trot, swimming competition, tennistournaments, and various other sponsoredprograms. The value of these activities can¬not be overstated. They are an outlet for ac¬ademic frustration and a chance for smalleror less talented students participate insports. IMs serve as a rallying agent formany houses on campus. However, as an IMparticipant in the past, I observed someproblems in the IM system which should beaddressed.Inside IMFor many sports, most notably football,basketball, volleyball, softball, and soccer,referees are necessary to officiate andmaintain control over the game. In general,the officiating ranges from impeccable toexcellent. While I realize that in IMs, aswith life, we must take the good with thebad, last year there were a few problemswith the refereeing assignments. This prob¬lem was perhaps most evident in a footballgame last fall between two of the top housefootball teams on campus. In this game, theIM office assigned two referees who had notofficiated in the past nor knew all of therules. As a result, the officials were unableto maintain control over these very physicalteams. Consequently, when the game was fi¬nally and prematurely terminated, anumber of the athletes were injured, a fewseriously enough to need medical attention.SportsPHOTO BY MARC KRAMERThe Chicago field hockey team defends against Kalamazoo on Wednesday. TheMaroons emerged with a 4-0 victory in its home opener.Booters in tough scheduleBy Cliff GrammichThe U of C soccer team starts its seasonon Sept. 29 at Stagg Field with a matchagainst Purdue University-Calumet. Thematch will open a fourteen game schedulefor the Maroons, in which they will play Di¬vision I schools such as Northwestern, NotreDame, and DePaul. Chicago will also faceperrennial Division III power WashingtonUniversity of St. Louis. Coach Barry DeSil-va referred to the soccer team’s schedule asthe toughest among U of C’s teams.Last year’s 6-7-1 team lost four starters,including a four-year member of the Mid¬west Conference all-star team However, this year’s team should recover from thatloss rather easily. John Assadi and JohnMcCarthy are among the six remainingstarters. In addition, Daniel Medina, asweeperback from West Point, has trans¬ferred and should help the team. The teamshould also benefit from the incoming fresh¬man players, which Coach DeSilva calledthe strongest group of frosh in five years.With the return of six starters and strongnew additions to the team, this year’s soccerteam could improve on last season’s recordand turn in a winning performance thisyear, despite the toughness of the sched¬ule. Tennis coachBy Caren GauvreauThe 1982 University of Chicago women’stennis team boasts of youth and experienceboth in team and coach. Christel Nicholls,new coach for the Maroons, is multi-talent¬ed. Having received a degree in physical ed¬ucation, she is a former coach of the U of CLab School’s tennis team and a 20-year resi¬dent of Hyde Park. Formerly the physicaleducation director of the Jewish CommunityCenter, Nicholls has played in many tennistournaments herself.Coach Nicholls has always wanted tocoach a college-level team and is lookingforward to working with the varsity squad.Coach Nicholls said “I am impressed withthe caliber of student-athletes and their wil¬lingness to work diligently at long practicesessions.”After several weeks of practicing andplaying challenge matches, the line-up isfairly well established. Playing at the firstsingles position is second year student JaneLook. Elizabeth Fama, also second year,will compete at second singles. Capturingthe third and fourth singles positions wereCaren Gauvreau and Stephanie Falk, re¬spectively, both second year students. Firstyear student Grace Park will play in thefifth singles spot and fourth year studentDayna Langfan will compete in the sixthsingles position.Rounding out the tennis team roster arefourth year student Inga Smulkstys, thirdyear students Klarita Wildhaber and AnneRaider, and second year students LindaMangad and Barb Vlamides.Coach Nicholls is inspired by the potentialof the tennis team. She stresses that it is ayoung team with the majority of top playersbeing second year students. Jane Look, the returning top singlesplayer said, “I really like our new coach asdoes the rest of our team. I feel the strengthof our team will lie in its ability to act as acohesive unit. I really look forward to hav¬ing fun with all my teammates and feel thatwe will have a successful season despite ouryouth.”Coach Nicholls hopes both the singles anddoubles will be strong. She is optimisticabout the upcoming season. Now a memberof the NCAA, the Maroons will be playingmany diverse teams. The season will beginthis week, as the Maroons plays in two dualmeets.Sports CalendarField HockeySept. 25 — College Day (2 games) at Mil¬waukeeSept. 28 — at Lake Forest College, 4:00p.m.VolleyballSept. 25 — Grinnell College, 10:00 a.m.,Field House; Illinois Institute of Techno¬logy. 2:00 p.m., Field House.Sept. 28 — at Chicago State University-Carthage College, 5:30 p.m.; ChicagoState University, 7:00 p.m.Sept. 30 — Aurora College, 7:30 p.m.,Field House.TennisSept. 28 — at DePaul UniversitySept. 29 — Wheaton College, 3:00 p.m., |Ingleside CourtsCross CountrySept. 25 — UCTC Invitational, 11:00 a.m.,Washington ParkSoccerSept. 29 — Purdue University-Calumet, I4:00 p.m., Stagg FieldFootballSept. 25 — Concordia College, 12:45 p.m., jStagg FieldAnother Great Classical Sale From Spin-It!Save on the Entire D.

However, while most studentsdrink at parties to have fun and get drunk,students here hit the bars in order to unwindfrom the pressures of academic life.Beer is by far the popular drink for U of Ctypes, but most bars also serve mixeddrinks. The drinking age in Illinois wasraised several years ago to 21, thereby ex¬cluding most of the undergraduate popula¬tion. However, some places will serve un¬deraged students depending on the day,time, size of group, and amount of facialhair.The following is a rating of the variousHyde Park bars. Understand that althoughit attempts to give reviews that reflect the Uof C students’ tastes, it is unavoidablybiased.Jimmy’s (Woodlawn Tap)55th and WoodlawnA large busy bar which serves over 30 dif¬ferent imported and domestic bottled beers.Jimmy’s is very U of C oriented with a Uni¬versity Room set aside for U of C studentsand faculty. It serves hamburgers, fries andother greasy specialties. Recorded music orradio. No jukebox. Video Games. Consis¬tently the most popular campus bar. ****PHOTO BY WILLIAM MUDGEJimmy’sThe Falcon Inn53rd just east of the IC tracksA new bar trying to fill the large shoes(talons?) left empty by the closing of theEagle. This bar is becoming increasinglypopular with U of C students especially withthose living in East Hyde Park. The selec¬tion of beer is small but the place is cleanand the atmosphere is very collegiate. Itserves an assortment of food from its grill until about 10:30 p.m., after which free butvery salty popcorn is offered. Jukebox.Video games. ****The Cove1750 E. 55th St.Besides the bar there are long tables withmoveable benches on which to sit. The pianois underused but the jukebox has an out¬standing selection of jazz recordings. Thedecor is rather spartan and the music canget too loud. Pinball and video games. ***The Tiki (Cirils House of Tiki)53rd St. and Cornell Ave.The best thing about the Tiki is that it re¬mains open until 4:00 a.m., a good two hourslater than most other Hyde Park bars. How¬ever, there is not much reason to go here be¬fore 2:00 a.m. The small restaurant sectionhas a bizarre menu (supposedly Polyne¬sian) and an interesting approach to interiordecorating. The blowfish chandeliers andthe hanging beads have caused students tonickname it the “Tacky Tiki.” Pay phone.No video games or jukebox. ***The Hyde-A-Way1601 E. 55th St.Hard to describe urban redneck bar butdefinitely does not have a country westernatmosphere. Only a few students frequentthis place. Video games and jukebox. ** v2The PubIda Noyes Hall basementClosed for renovation over the summer,this U of C landmark will reopen under newmanagement. Since the new managementalso operates the Medici and Casa Segunda,the food should be good. We will have to waitand see.Valhalla Lounge1515 E. 53rd St.A decent to good jazz/blues bar that doesnot particularly welcome University types.No games or jukebox but live music onweekends. Not for beginners. **Butler’s53rd between Dorchester and Blackston-eAves.Opened two weeks ago in Cafe Enrico’sold space. No food but fairly good music sofar. Too early for review.The above bars are rated from one to fourstars with four stars signifying the bestHyde Park has to offer in quality and quan¬tity of drinks, atmosphere, treatment of stu¬dents, and price.CalendarFRIDAYHillel: Sundown- Yavneh (Orthodox) Sabbath Ser¬vices 5:45 pm.

Hyde Park Blvd.6 - Chicago Literary Review. Friday, September 24,1982Conjuring Up NothingDjinnby Alain Robbe-GrilletGrove PressTranslated by Yvone Lenard andWalter WellsMuch had been written aboutRobbe-Grillet and the “anti-novel.”Needless to say, a great deal ofthe criticism is far more difficult toread than the books themselves. Inpublication releases we readquotes from respectable authorssuch as John Updike who tells usthat “Robbe-Grillet’s theoriesconstitute the most ambitiousprogram since surrealism.”Nevertheless, to appreciate such abody of work, we must humor it.We must read it in the spirit withwhich it was written.The hero of Robbe-Grillet’s firstnovel, Les Gommes (1953), is adetective who inadvertently killsthe very man whose murder he isattempting to solve. Based on thestory of Oedipus, Wallis canachieve the role that he has castfor himself only by doing exactlythe opposite of what he has set outto do. That is, Wallis is not trulydetective (for he has no crime tounravel) until he becomes thecriminal. As we reach the end ofthe novel, we are both horrifiedand fascinated by this paradoxicalresolution to the doubts ofself-identity that have accompaniedWallis’s agonizing search for themurder: he is himself (detective)only after he also becomes hisadversary (murderer). Thus he isleft with no clear self.In his series of essays entitled Fora New Novel (1963), we aresometimes forced to readRobbe-Grillet as a character fromhis own work. Here he is thetheorist who despises theory, theself-created paradox who attainshis identity only after doingexactly what he argues against.Annoyed by his “reading public’s”misunderstanding of his work, heprofesses to be “impelled by thedesire to convince”' us all of thetruths in his approach to fiction.Yet he refuses to allow thisapproach to constitute a theory. Towrite with a theory, he argues, isto fit a novel into “a pre-existingmold.”...Each novel must invent itsown form. No recipe canreplace his continualreflection. The book makes itsown rules for itself...Indeed, the author himself can havebut one answer to the critics whoask him why he has written hisbook: “ ‘To try and find out why hewanted to write it.’ ” ThusRobbe-Grillet makes us a part ofhis work, he transforms us intobaffled Wallis’s. For how can wetell ourselves not to theorizewithout theorizing on thedestructiveness of theory?But this is the special pleasure ofRobbe-Grillet’s work. He knowsthat we seek answers. Although heallows questions to exist, herefuses to grant them thepossibility of answers. Instead weare left with contradictions. Wenever know, finally, what happens in any of the novels, is the hero ofLe Voyeur merely a voyeur or hashe indeed committed a terriblecrime? In Dans Le Labyrinthe, hisnovel about writing novels, we arepresented with several versions ofthe same story. Yet we never knowwhat the “real” story is. Nor canwe say if the jealous husband of LaJalousie actually has anything tobe jealous about. This ambiguity,we must conclude, is exactly whatRobbe-Grillet seeks. Perhaps, afterall, Robbe-Grillet is truthful whenhe insists that his novels are not“difficult.” Like the world, theysimply exist.Djinn is Robbe-Grillet’s ninthnovel. Of the eight since LesGommes, this is the most like thefirst. The structure is tighter thanits predecessors, and the plot isactua.ly somewhat moreinteresting. We are not weigheddown with numbers; we are notasked to read an endless inventoryof banana plants as we are in LaJalousie. Not once are we told howmany steps it takes for someone toget from one place to another. Yetin style and effect, Djinn of theNoveau Roman. The “new” novel,we come to see with this book, hasreached its thirtieth birthday withrelatively little change.Djinn is presented as the“manuscript” of Simon Lecoeur,known as Boris Koershimen, calledJan (although nobody “could eversay why.”) after the “prologue,”Lecoeur tells his own story. Hebecomes involved with aclandestine organization dedicatedto the eradication of the machine’sgrowing influence over our lives.Looking to earn some extra money,Lecoeur answers a newspaperadvertisement and makes contactwith Djinn in a deserted warehousein the middle of Paris. From thispoint he is sent on a series ofbizarre errands without anyapparent object. Only the ultimatedestination, it seems, will revealthe true nature of his job.The opening chapter of Lecoeur’snarrative is intentionally presentedas a parody of a RaymondChandler-type detective story. Thelanguage keeps slipping as ifLecoeur cannot maintain Marlowe’stough dialogue and cool demeanorno matter how hard he tries. Ourhero is harassed by female thugs.Djinn turns out to be an Americanwoman and true to the genre, sheis a femme fatale of the mostobtainable variety. Lecoeur falls inlove with her voice, butunfortunately she carries a gun.When he realizes that he hasbecome mixed up with a group ofdangerous women, Lecoeurlaments:...girls are no longer the waythey used to be. They playgangsters, nowadays, just likeboys. They organize rackets.They play holdups andpractice Karate. They willrape defenseless adolescents.They wear pants...Life hasbecome impossible.This is, perhaps, meant to betaken lightly as it is written. Butafter this first chapter the onlyperson who reads the story as ifwatching an old movie is Lecoeurhimself. Always fascinated with therole of the detective, Robbe-Grillet loves to turn the tables on hisprotagonist. Lecoeur willinglycomplies with the instructions he isgiven by Djinn and her agents,including little Marie who takeslessons in “lying” at school. Ofcourse Lecoeur never knowsexactly what the purpose of hisassignments are. He is directedfrom one weird place to anotherand encounters strange people whoseem to know him already. Whenan accident prevents him frommaking his first contact at a trainstation, he is told that theappointment had been a “falsetrack, meant to misleadsuspicions.” When Lecoeur stops towonder “Who's supposed to besuspicious?” we suspect that he isnot involved in a plot so much asthe object of one. But then, if lifehas “become impossible'' for him. itis because he has made it that way.Lecoeur has allowed himself to becarried along by the outrageousmaneuvers of the organization'sagents. He willingly assumes thedisguise of a blind man. once againto allay suspicions. Yet this“disguise.” does not allow Lecoeurto see and thus, once aaain.Lecoeur does not know where he isgoing or what he is doing. True, heis superficially disguised. But moreimportantly, the world is disguisedto him. Nor does Lecoeur haveenough sense to object. As if toconvince himself, he tells us that heis just playing a game, and thatDjinn will be his prize if he wins.Ultimately, Lecoeur is brought toa place where he listens to thevoice of Djinn describing thepurposes of the organization. Herspeech is an absurdly phonyMarxist manifesto that blames theworld’s problems on man’s“alienation by the machine.” Djinntells of their plans to end allsubjegation to the “Almighty Godof the Mechanical.” But Lecoeurbegins to realize that theorganization’s manipulations of himhave been “in total contradiction tothe goals it proposes.” He hassacrificed his own “free-will.”Secretly removing his blind man’sglasses, Lecoeur discovers that heis surrounded by other “blind”men, all disguised as he is.Furthermore, Djinn is not there atall. The voice comes from a machineat the front of the room.At this point we are remindedthat we are reading Robbe-Grillet.and that there cannot be anulterior purpose, or design behindthe actions in the plot. Lecoeur issuddenly knocked unconscious frombehind and the narrative is taken up by an omniscient voice whoproceeds to recount Lecoeur s storyall over again. Yet the story is notquite the same. Lecoeur comes backto finish the “second” story in hisown voice and he seems to tell usthat this version of the tale is whatactually might have happenedyears ago. This story foreshadowsthe events that he has alreadynarrated in the first chapters. Themessage seems to be that we arejust reading a story, and that in astory the author can do anything hepleases. We are disturbed by theunexplained events, perhaps, butalso comforted by the reminderthat this is all just fiction anyway.The author of the “prologue” hasalready explained that some of theevents are close to life but thatreally the whole thing is tooridiculous to be true...But this, however, is still toomuch of an “answer” forRobbe-Grillet. Thus we get anotherchapter written by a woman thathas tried to seduce. It reads verymuch as the first part of a dreamanalysis by Freud, as the events ofthe dream day. She tells us all ofthe extenuating circumstances thattook place on the occasion of theirmeeting — each event of thismeeting bearing a crudecorrespondence to the bizarreincidents in Lecoeur’s story. Shereassures us that Lecoeur has awonderful imagination. But we arenot able to forget that her tale isprinted as a part of Lecoeur’smanuscript. She too is probablyfictional. Besides, some of theevents of their meeting areinexplicable to her as well: thestrange blind man who follows her.the knowledgeable little daughterof her cousin whose name happensto be Marie, and the fact that shehas run into Lecoeur in a desertedalley.To destroy all possibility ofrational explanation, we are givena final “epilogue” attached to themanuscript and apparently writtenby the author of the “prologue.”This voice eventually identifiesitself as an agent from theorganization that is perhapsresponsible for the disappearance,in real life, of Simon Lecoeur.known as Boris Koershimen. calledJan. Yet in the beginning, this samenarrator has told us that Lecoeur'smanuscript is too fantastic to be atrue story. Of course the readerwill never know.Robbe-Grillet has told us thatwhen a book is finished, the authormust look at his completed workwith a critical eye. The “writer'scritical reflection will serve himfurther to gain a perspective inregard to it, immediatelynourishing new explorations, a newdeparture.” But we do not findmuch that is new in Djinn. The bookis fun to read, and certainly filledwith interesting, sometimesinspiring, tricks of narrative.Robbe-Grillet retains hisremarkable ability to describespace and objects, his consciousnessof the physical world. But we getimpatient with the lack ofsubstance. We cannot explaineverything; perhaps we cannever explain anything fully.But need we be constantlyreminded of this fact? Onceconvinced that life is mysterious,we must move on and make themost of what little capacity forunderstanding we do possess.—Becky Woloshin RyanChicago Literary Review. Friday.

The road dips and curves over and around the smallhills heading from Sainte-Marie to Lac Poisson Blanc. We are headingtowards the carnival. This old American car bangs and bucks sometimes, andthe headlights flicker. We drive in silence. I watch your elbow on thewindow, your hand in your hair; I watch a pair of headlights round a bend,straighten out, and drop down to low beams. Red beacons flash, their tipsjust visible over the tops of trees.You reach in your bag for cigarettes. I push in the lighter for you. Youtake my action for granted, and wait the twelve seconds you’ve counted outhundreds of times to pull it out. But the lighter doesn’t pop.“Shit.” You pull it out and it’s cold. “Why didn’t you get this fixed whenyou first noticed it?”“It worked fifteen minutes ago.” You stare at me without patience.I turn my attention back to driving and try to pretend I'm flying. I try topretend the headlights are spaceships, the roads are mazes. I try to pretendthe time is ancient, that men speak different languages. But I keep thinkingof our cabin in the woods and how you get bored there sometimes. If I getbored I just go outside, but you have no patience. You have no patience withme and I show little sign of getting anything done, of going back to school,of writing the story about summer in the shadows of the Canadian Rockies.My family is about to give up on me. Soon there will be no more looking forexcuses, I’ll just be left out of family conversation. But one day I'll go homewith something, you’ll be by my side proud, and I’ll hold it up and say-“Hey, we need more gas.”“Yeah, OK. I’ll get more cigarettes, too, and matches,” I grin. There aretimes when it is hard to tell if my adjoiners are lost on you.You roll down your window and start searching through the tapes on thefloor for something you want to hear. It’s late in the evening, and I pull intoa lit gas station. The attendant comes out shapeless in overalls bearing aname tag that says “Jean”. I get the gas, pick up a few packs of cigarettes,decide to make it a carton, add on about five lighters, plus power steeringfluid, and a quart of oil. I charge it all on an expired credit card. Jeanaccepts the card wordlessly, even smiles. So, what the hell, I add on a sparetire. You think this is funny; it puts you in a good mood. Thinking about it, Idid it for you. Jean waves to us as we pull out. “Merci, merci,” he cries.I suppose I wanted to impress you with my newly acquired command ofthis particular dialect, and get you to say my French is better than yours;but no such luck. You laugh about the tire, open all the packs of Marlboro,throw one of the lighters out the window, then another, and light uscigarettes. I like the rainbows at gas stations: light refracted throughgasoline, or something like that. I’m not interested in that aspect of itanymore. You slide the Pistols into the player, and we smoke and let thewind push through the windows.More miles twisted into the hills, we buck and splutter to a stop at aroadside diner with a neon sign that has two letters burnt out. The parkinglot is rocky, puddles slush against the wheels. Parked cars are wet andshiny like jewels on a necklace around the lot. Inside, a juke box glows inthe corner. High school waitresses smile shyly. I used to adore a shy smile,now they bored me. Pert little nipples brought to attention by an unabashedgaze. My games had changed, but I noticed I still called them games.Hamburgers, french fires, cokes: I let you order. Your French is flawless,but you get a little nervous anyway. I should think it’s cute, but I think it'sstupid.“Mon Dieu, j’ai faim.”“I don’t want to speak French,” I say.“But you should practice.” That makes me smile, almost laugh.“I guess you're right. I just don't really want to right now.”“Who does this sing?” \“Donovan,” I say, trying to shut the juke box off telepathicaly. “Can Ihave a cigarette?”You pull out two and light them both yourself.“Merci, mon chou.”“I thought you didn’t want to speak French, and you I hate that particularendearment. Cabbages stink.”The pert nipples bring our food, their fingers inside our cokes.“I’m glad you’re not getting high anymore.”I roll my eyes. We have this conversation a lot. I don’t want to talk aboutit anymore. I can understand your fear, I think; yet you say I don’tunderstand at all. We always end up in this poignant silence that makes mewant to laugh, but I never do.“Why do you need drugs?”I control the violent urge to roll my eye, to sigh with extremeexasperation. I stare at the striped plastic straws. “Let’s not.”“Let’s not what?”“Talk about it.”“ ‘lt‘? What is *it‘?”“Playing Virginia Woolfe?”“No, and it’s ‘bit’, not ‘it’.”“Foolish of me. How’s your hamburger?”“It’s ok.” You talk with your mouth full, one of my favorite things aboutyou.“Listen, it’s not a matter of need. It’s more like ‘why not’?, or because it’sthere. Also, it’s something all intelligent people are curious about:something that’s becoming if not important, at least highly visible and morewidely accepted. It's an incredible social phenomenon, and it's somethingpeople should at least know about.”“But I’m talking about you.” She crosses her legs tightly; something shedoes when she's mad. She slides one of her rings up and down her fingers,almost pouting.“Listen, it's nothing to hate out of fear, unless maybe you're too weak tohandle it. And that's a problem, most people are either too weak or toostupid to handle it. But don't let fear rule your actions;-that's a terrible wayto live. It's so pointless; it's not living, it's hiding. We have to know about itbefore we can decide! if it's a problem, and certainly before we can solve itif it’s a problem.”“I don't want to talk about it anymore.”“There’ll come a time when we ll have to talk a lot longer and better thanthis.”“I know, just not now.”The juke box is silent; we can hear the waitresses popping gum. They'reall huddled in a corner checking their stockings for runs, counting theirchange, and using hand compacts. They are all fairly skinny for NorthernCanadians, but that was becoming the style here. And something else wastoo, but I couldn’t remember what.Outside I noticed the stars and though how I always noticed them, andhow it was getting to be annoying. Tonight they were just stars, and beingsuch made me feel like I was small at a small diner on a small road, hidingbehind these trees from the preying, prying eyes staring up from a moresouthern part of the continent.“Les etoiles.” you say softly. I wonder why you're in such a romanticmood. “Ou sont les cigarettes?”“Tiens,” I say, holding them out. I take one for myself, and pull one of thelighters from the folds of my pocket. The flame glows over your eyes andnose. It reminds me of the way the jukebox shone.I'd left the waitress a big tip: I had no real use or care for the money, andit was a habit of which I was kind of proud. I pretended it showed myconcern for humanity, or some such trash, but really it made me happy tosurprise people and perhaps restore the littlest bit of faith. She couldsurprise her boyfriend and take him out to dinner, or buy a diaphram. orwhatever would give her the most pleasure. She and her pert little nippleshad waved good-bye. and were now probably at ease. I wondered abouther life; that was more interesting than the stars tonight.“What's going to be at the carnival?”“Oh, the usual things. I suppose: rides, side shows (maybe some freaks!),handicraft booths, smelly farm animals, stuff like that.”“And a roller coaster?” you ask.“Maybe a small one,” I say, loving your excitement. I kiss you. I wonderif you could understand my thoughts at this moment. I'm not sure I do really.I wished we could meet on some astral plane of understanding. I feel thereis a mixture of love and hate, pride and envy, of sureness and confusion: ofHYDE PARK UNION CHURCH5600 S.

Perhaps it’s all too close to understand.“And a ferris wheel?”“With colored lights, and moons painted all over it, and a man and his sontaking tickets.”You put your fingers on the window and trace a line. “Will we have ason?”“We’re not married.”“Well?”“Jesus fucking Christ. I love you.”“I love you, too.”“But I don’t want to get married.”“But you do love me?”“Yes.” She turns her head Pack to the window. Looking out at thedarkness of the trees, “And someday we will have a son?”“I hope so.”She reaches for the radio knob. Flicking past the station, she pausesbriefly on a discussion in French about rabid animals. She stops on static,then looks over at me and turns off the radio. Her hand grips my knee.“How many times will we ride the ferris wheel?”“As many as you want.”“We'll go around and around.”“And up and down, too.”The line on the window is retraced. A straight line.“Will it be this way forever?”“Forever? I don’t know, that’s a long time. Things change. We’ll change.”“We’ll change together.”“I hope so.”Gravel splurted from the wheels; I’d drifted.“Watch the road. I want to ride the ferris wheel.”Back on the road it begins to rain. Wipers make the world slightlykaleidoscopic. She twines some of her hair around an index finger. She isquiet, and I know she’s thinking. All this real talking could now make thisthinking a bad sign. To talk is to add to the thinking, but to not sayanything is careless, not facing up to the situation. I need to find out what’sbothering you, but with you one has more than occasionally to be slightlyroundabout. Start way off the subject, get you to talk about something andeventually it will come.“What do you want to be?” I start.“Younger.”“What?”“Oh, I don’t know. Why do you ask me stupid questions?”“Because I want to tell you what I want to be.”“What’s that?”“A writer.”“But you've been acting for years. Why give it up? You've worked sohard.”“As an actor you’re always saying someone else’s message, spouting offtheir words like a busted fire hydrant. Sure, you add your special touches,you do a lot, but you’re still a mouhpiece.“So what do you want to be. a mouth!” You’re pleased with that.“Yeah, and you’ll be the piece.”“We’re both pretty funny.”“Hilarious. But I’m serious. I don’t want to be an actor. I ant to be awriter...it’s the only way I feel I can do something real with art. I want totranscend artistry so that...so that art becomes necessary, a real factor inreal life.”“Do you believe that?”“Yes, as a matter of fact, I do.”“I’m not good enough for you?”“Yes. Yes, you are, and going to the carnival with you is wonderful.”“But it will not be this way forever?”“No.”She sighed, maybe groaned softly.“I didn’t think it would,” she said. “I did not think it would.” It was thefirst time I could remember she had ever lied.“But I do love you.”Hot and quick: “Love is so temporary these days.”“Only for those with fucked up values.”She brought her foot down hard on the car floor. “Bullshit. For everybody.For your parents, for my parents, for the rich in the hills, for the poor in thecoal mines. You’re so high, so transcendental, you forget about what reallymatters.” Her knuckles were long white, and she balanced tears on the rimsof her eyes. “Why do I love you?” More lights flashed low and high around bends and on the other sides ofhills, but less frequently now. The moon had arched overhead, even slightlyto our left now, following its orbit to no specific end. She touched myshoulder.“How many times will we ride the ferris wheel? As many as I want,right?”“Yes.”“And we’ll go around and around?”“Yes, and up and down, too.”“Then let’s just ride the roller coaster. It does all those things, but faster,so you can’t think about it, just feel it.”—Bill VanderCluteS Before He LeavesHe is standing by the window, his necktieloose around his neck, pointingto the park, where two kiteshover. She thinks he is lookingat the trees, and notices that the leaveshave come out already. The sunlighthas revealed the lines in his face.She looks back at the cupboard filledwith clean sheets and he watchesher profile and wants her closer.She moves to him, to tellhow she wishes she were young enoughto wear clothes like the girls do. His handtouches the back of her neck.She wants him, but feels compelledto move away, to run her fingeraround the window frame,to ask how he wants his eggs.When she thinks of his absence, she seespiles of paperbacks, a creasedquilt.

(1982 -110LIPSTICKBRUISESLeila was half-Persian, beautiful, and hyperactive. Since shecouldn t be bothered with work or school, she had nothing to doall day but make a drama of her life. For this she had the health ofa hellcat (even after a sleepless five-day hitchhiking tour of theSouthwest with a runaway lesbian nun, for instance, Leila’sflawless skin went on glowing underneath the magenta lipstick“bruises” she painted below her eyes).No surprise I fell in love with her, I suppose. I’m a single man, abit lonely, middle-aged, middle-class, disposed toward very younggirls....I went to this club one night the kids had told me about,Can O’ Worms. The place was crowded and I admit rather forbid¬ding in its strangeness, and all I did all night was sit at the bardrinking unitl the music shut off a four am, the lights went up, andthere I was sitting alone in what was really a very bleak little barwith a surprising amount of rubbish on the floor. You know thescene: kids straggling out the exit, cold winter draft, you can’tquite raise yourself from the bar stool where you’ve been sovacantly, peacefully despondent....A damp hand placed itself confidently on my shoulder.“Hi there.”The voice sounded like it got a kick out of playing around withits lowest, most insinuating registers. I snapped my head aroundand saw it belong to a striking little teaser with close-cropped black hair and elegantly thin brown ears. Leila then told me (with aspecial blend of entreaty and audacity which was to becomefamiliar to me) that she was sick and broke and would I drive herhome.Why of course I would.By the time we got to the car eight of her friends were with usas well. Leila lived in a distant dark slum and all her firends hadbeen dropped off when I at last crackled to a stop on the brokenglass outside her building. She asked me if I minded walking herup to her apartment. I wasn’t sure if this was an invitation to sleepwith her because her building really did look rather menacing. Ithad been on fire recently, she explained, and this seemed to beborne out by the carpeted stairs which squished, still soggy fromthe hoses, under Leila’s peeling white go-go boots. The wallswere charred black and gave off the sweet scary smell of a placeup in flames.When we reached her landing she told me I must go back outand buy her a lemon because she had a bad taste in her mouth. Ireturned with a whole bagful of lemons but had to knock on herdoor for quite a while before she answered.“Oh hi...I forgot all about you.”Not very welcoming of her...but not unfriendly either, and even Isuppose rather charming in its rude innocence. The living roomwe stood in was very shadowy; the only light, in fact, came fromtwo aquariums over by the window. Leila’s silver-sDanqled shirtseemed to be positively swimming with the purple glow from thegreat frothing things. I sat down on a blanket—only furniture shehad, far as I could tell. I watched Leila halve a lemon and suck itgreedily with pink pouty lips. Her white teeth seemed oiled to analmost cruel brilliance by the juice from the lemons, and while shetalked about how her father used to inspect her underpants forsperm after a date I couldn’t stop staring at those teeth, andthough she offered me wine I refused because I thirsted forsomething fresh and furious and new as tne water DUDDiiny uppure and cold in her aquariums and...and I was pretty worked up ifyou want the idea.Old FlameWhen she drives,she whistles,or asks, perfunctorily,about my job, the folks“That’s nice,” she says,then breaks off whileshe fumbles for the clutch.She flicks her hairfrom her eyes, not yetused to its newshort length, and apologizesfor not having written,but I'm supposed to know howthese things are. 1 alwaysLast night 1 dreamtthat the car door flungopen at a busy intersectionand I fell out,but that she was toopreoccupied to noticeuntil it was too lateto turn back.

She giggled as she work¬ed and had a delicious way of sucking her upper lip and peepingout her tongue in kittenish concentration.Dawn comes pretty damn’ late in early winter, but the coldshrunken light at last began to thin the purple glow of the tanksand Leila said: “Hey, you better get going. My boyfriend’s aboutto wake up.’’I didn’t see Leila for weeks. I called her, but her phone hadbeen disconnected. A month or so later the phone awakened meat five am. It was she. “Hey, I hope you weren’t crashed out oranything but I have to see you.’’ She sounded sullen and a bitsniffly. “So can I come over now?’’Of course she could.Nothing prepared me for Leila’s face at my door: make-updissolved into mud by tears, blood oozing from fresh wounds. Mypoor darling, what had happened! She said nothing and I sat herby the sink, sponged off the mud and blood, and found her cheekshad been raked with claws. But still she kept silent, my brave darl¬ing, as I dabbed alcohol on her cuts which were not without theirbeauty—bright red veins in the peach of her skin. I asked heragain what had happened and permitted myself to wrap my armaroung her and lightly clench her chill yellow arm. Her bodytemperature, normally so overheated, had dropped sharply. Neverhad she been so slack, so yielding.“That filthy wench, she asked for it,’’ Leila spat out, thrashing toher feet in her over-sized mud-splattered pink raincoat. “Thinksshe’s so rough and ready...I fixed her...but it just makes meso mad that she hurt me!’’What’s that, who’s this, dear?’’She told me the whole story.

Well, they clawed each other,rolling around right on the dance floor to the cheers of the crowd.The girl was so big! Some strapping, milk-fed dairy farmer’sdaughter. “To tell you the truth, I think she beat me,’’ Leila admit¬ted.I could have kissed her. Scrappy little confiding darling!Leila said flatly that she would never see Pretty Dreadful again.She’d happened to catch him laughing as she and the Amazonwere tusselling on the floor. He was so mean, and yet—well, youknow she hated to admit it but she guessed she still loved Prettyanyway. Who’d have ever though she’d be a sucker for anybody?What was she supposed to do?Stay with me forever, I felt like telling her. And so hard not totell her when I could just see my ravishing darling being groundinto the rubbish-y floor of that evil little bar. O, so had not togather her in my arms and take her to rooms she deserved, roomswith light pouring in everywhere through great bay windows,rooms where people were mild and pleasant as the cups of teawarming their knees!I restrained myself, of course, and ruminated on my problemrealistically....Nothing could alter the fact Leila was still underPretty’s spell, and nothing could hurry her disenchantment: she'dhave to see him go up in smoke all by herself.I told her I’d put her in a cab.Out on the street it was just getting light. The air quivered likerising smoke and the streetlights all seemed to have halos oftremulous gold. The wind wasted no time at all ripping openLeila’s buttonless raincoat and I found it very hard to look at herjust then, my battered heroic darling limping along in her skimpyblack t-shirt with the band-aid patch on the breast!The upraised eyebrows of a few passers-by recalled me to reali¬ty and the thought that Leila really could use a good old-fashionedveil just now to hide her beat-up face. But really now, was Iembarrassed by Leila’s appearance? Absolutely not. My parentshave taught me too well to think well of myself and so I do,however sordid and irregular my circumstances are. And then (Ican’t hide it) I realized at that moment just how far Leila hadswung my sympathies. Farewell, middle-class! Farewell,wholesome well-educated well-meaning women with yellow film onyour teeth and hearts like hot cocoa! But the, farewell, Leila, Yes,the cab had come, I was leaning down to kiss her above her pinksunglasses (never had she looked so inscrutable, so torporous),when she said, “Where am I going? There's no place to goanymore.’’Well now, uh Leila, that’s not strictly true here, for you see....Itold her I was going out of town on business and though sheprobaby couldn’t stand the bother of stacking my mail and water¬ing my plants, she...She took my apartment keys and I caught my flight.I returned from my trip early, a whole night early, just like agood old-fashioned literary suspicious lover. And what did I find?Well, to tell you the truth it was hard to find much of anything. Thelights in the hall weren't working for some reason and in thedarkness and my eagerness to find Leila I went crunching overcans which may have been beer cans which probably fell out ofwhat were certainly garbage bags which were clogging the halland which I kicked my way through, in the kitchen I stepped in apuddle of something.I didn’t even recognize my bedroom. There they stood, toweringover everything—how in heaven had she ever moved them here?—the two great aquariums standing there completely fishless,cauldrons cooked free of life. Their purple glow wavered richlythroughout the room, coursing up the walls, brimming at the ceil¬ing. My room seemed to sit inside some monstrous tank. Andthere she was, Leila on my bed, O on my bed\ Mermaid on herrock, her smooth brown back, her human-half, visible above thelilac-tinted sheets.And so I wondered a lot of things. Was Pretty still in the picture?How long would Leila stay in this particular tank? And who washigher on the food chain in these waters—she or I?But—to give you the bottom line—I wondered mostly about justwhen Leila was going to take me down down down into the ink-shot depths where the water seethes at fever pitch and we bothfall foundering to the mossy floor of her dim dizzy fizzy bad badnaughty girl world!Keith FlemingChicago Literary Review.

I was Xeroxing filecards, so I hadtime to think. I thought about the words of the doctor. Arthritis, arthritis. Ihave a second cousin who was crippled by arthritis when he was a youngman. Arthritis, the joints swell with pain, become immobile. I put it out ofmy mind. I concentrated on the position of every file card and the aestheticeffect of the xerox.Later, I was too hurt to think. I had been standing for hours, waiting formy idol to speak. After my patience was rewarded, my knees wereshooting pain. I limped to the train station. I leaned back in the seat, look¬ing out the train window. I wished I had no legs at all. Through the glass Isaw five dozen strangers, with blank, expectant looks. Then it was dusk, Isaw my own old face in the darkened glass.One night I took the train to Dubuque. I had a man there. I wanted tosee the sleeping farms in the hill country. It was a long winter in the city. Ineeded to see a windmill. All I could see was my own nervous face in theglass. The car was brightly lit. There was no mistake about the cleanlinessof this train. I stared at my book, and I stared at the window. I didn'tsmoke because smoke on my breath would kill my lover.1 remember the embrace, the first and last romantic thrill. Dubuque wasdark and snow-covered, like a city in a dream of its own. We were excited,make no mistake about that. Three years of waiting was tiresome. I can ad¬mit now that I made the delay.When I saw the house it was all very familiar. I knew where it all wasand where it all came from. I knew how' important the desk was.

I said I loved him. as though I'd felt that way forweeks. And we made love in the winter, as though nothing could stop thismoment, halt the train. I lay in the dark, facing the one man who wasstronger than myself.Who can say? Why did that one moment under your sister's quilt endthe bitter romance?

September 24,1982 -15JDay Twenty-One: JInspirationDay Nineteen: Plume I was looking at a picture of number six today, he looks like some greatlover, in profile. All my high school friends were jealous of the man in thepicture. They said, Do they all look like that? I said, No. They said, Then itmust hurt to lose a face like that forever. One said, I presume his horsewas waiting outside the tower? I gave her a look, not unlike the look in thepicture. You see, he didn’t want his picture taken. We were having one ofthose fights we used to have. Who cared less about the other.You see, 1 fell in love with him the same night he said. If you really loveme, you would be willing. To take a chance. But if you are not willing, 1will go home. I have a class in the morning. And gave me that look, thatlook in the picture. That’s how number six became number six. He said Iwas number three, and smirked.A friend has told me that number six has become an easy lay. He’s notrespected for his virtue. He’s no longer numbered among lovers. I doubt ihe's lost his looks.A few broken hearts there in the rubbish. I put the lid back on the trash-can, and left them.Can you ever forget a love letter? Even if it's badly spelled and badlywritten and covered with hearts and arrows and details? It's easier to forgetaddresses and dates and parties. But the sight of familiar handwriting in thedays mail. The hours spent on the phone were more like being there, lesslike being apart and in love anyway. I have lost the paper with telephonenumbers, but I just threw the love letters away. The blue and brown andwhite envelopes will be burned in the morning. Whatever escapes the fire isfree to fade.Now the drawer is empty. No nostalgia left.The letters have come less frequently with the years. The last few wereonly postcards of monuments. So everyone from there to here could stealmy thrill. It was even out-of-date. There was another man.But how could I fall in love with such a full drawer?It was ready to be cleaned. The fresh stationery sits there, waiting to betraded in on gossip and cliches and bills and more men. The typewriter sitson the new desk with a new eraser. I still type all my letters.Now. I’ll scrub the toilet. Day Twenty-Three: HopelessI told a man the truth today. He didn’t believe it. And since men have allthe knowledge and all the power and all the money and God Knows all theexperience in the world, I nodded, staring at his unzipped fly.I love the way the truth will get you nowhere in this world. And the liesyou tell are always somehow true. I keep on saying all I know, but that Iknow what I know and I know how I know and I don't know how I knowthey don't know how I know what 1 know leaves me in rather a bindsometimes. So, when I tell the truth. I generally remove a sweater, or ashoe or my truthfully useless glasses before I begin. I've found that baringone breast or a nylon-clad sole generally makes me more reliable in men'seyes. Since I have perfected this technique. I have no name for it yet, mylife has become in a general sort of way, one endless string of opportunitiesto lie. Which just means I have to work that much harder to maintain myintegrity.The other day, for instance. I was telling a man that ! was not a virgin.Well, he wouldn't believe me when 1 took off my glasses and shoes andcoat and jacket. It wasn't until I had discarded everything but a sheet andclimbed onto his table that he saw my point. So you can easily see now,after I have explained to you how I have gained my reputation for honestyand plain-dealing, that telling a lie would have gotten me into a highlycompromising position with nothing to gain and everything to lose.*» nr SWmm t &DioWomenHearaifferent Drummer?“A revelation...

And baked black cake in the oven until it bounced back from theprobing finger. And we made jam until it caught the light, and sparkled inthe window. And we didn’t answer the front door, fearing that a salesmanwould deliver a personalized King James Bible. And brushed our hair untilit flew up to the ceiling and crackled in audible delight. An we swatted fliesin the pantry until we were left alone with the dried apples of summer. Andwe bled every month for a hundred years, wondering if it was caused bypassion. And we sharpened the quills in early twilight, and lit the lamp andsaid our egotistical prayers that we might be humble and began to write forour spiritual daughters.

Day Thirty-Seven: ReignTonight I was trying to figure out whether a tube of tooth-paste is aphallic symbol or not. I had a feeling that it must be a phallic symbol, sinceit is an effective dentifrice. But it reminds me of a vagina, removed fromthe body, the shape intact.

September 24,1982-17Day Forty-One: AgitationSometimes one thing leads to another. Over years and miles, one breathfollowing another and one step following another, one cannot change toomuch. 1 find that one voice speaks again and again, in different rooms and dif¬ferent books and different words. The face is different, almost unrecognizable,but the words hold the same power. 1 know there is a difference, maybe in thetone of voice. Maybe in the heart.And my heart is older. That is different. And what 1 think of love is differenttoo. Having wasted time so many years, 1 see that time is a kind of love. Butlove is not time alone. Tea may be a time for some people, but tea issomething that you drink. One can make it into a ceremony, but that takesyears of your life. One doesn't learn alone.In my parents’ new house, my father has a soundproof study. All his booksline the walls in alphabetical order. All his maps and papers are in drawers ac¬cording to their type and usefulness. The toys we gave hime over the years siton his desk. There is one narrow window that looks at some red cedars. Hedidn’t want the phone extension in his study, so that is in the kitchen. He waitsfor my mother to answer the phone, even when she is asleep. He sleeps inthestudy. He emerges for food and drink and work. His life work is a SundaySchool course. God appears on every other page.When he wants to learn, he goes to conferences and learns a lot. He meetsall sorts of people who are just like him.My teachers are all men. Therefore I am not like them. One thought thattherefore 1 must love him. He thought he could learn to love my money. Day Forty-Four: TranslationIf it was so long ago, why do I think about it now? It takes over my mindand sets me back. I start to cry in public, in front of you. I pull out aKleenex and spill my change on the floor. I say, It is only an allergy. I closemy eyes. I see his face. There are a lot of men who look like him. In¬cluding Hemingway.I wonder if he is the kind of man to kill himself? To own a gun? Or evenback his car into the garage and gas himself to death. I wish he would die,so I could say, I outlive all my enemies.1 hope he learns his lesson someday.I learned mine. That love is something perfect. And dark, which is blindfrom being in the dark so long. And it is so stupid, it casts out fear.If I said that in five years 1 learned his ways, 1 would be lying to you. Inever even learned his middle name. It never seemed important to ask.And he would say, You don’t know? Because I was afraid to ask, 1 neverasked.I said, I love you, do you love me?He said, 1 can’t say 1 love you.Then I learned what he meant by that.WELCOME AND HAPPY NEW YEARFROMHILLEL HOUSE — THE JEWISH COMMUNITY ON CAMPUS5715 South Woodlawn Avenue - 752-1127DROP BY AND PICK U P INFORMATION ABOUT CU LTURAL,SOCIAL, RELIGIOUS PROGRAMS ANDCLASSES FOR FALL QUARTERTHE COMING WEEK AT HILLELFRIDAY -SEPTEMBER 24 -SHABBAT DINNER—6:30 P.M.-Cost: $3.00SATURDAY -SEPTEMBER 25 - CONSERVATIVE(9:30 A M ) andORTHODOX (9:15 A M ) SERVICESSUNDAY — SEPTEMBER 26 - YOM KIPPUR - KOL NIDREORTHODOX —6:00P M - HILLEL HOUSECONSERVATIVE —6:00PM - IDA NOYES HALLREFORM —8 30P M - IDAJMOYES H ALLMONDAY -SEPTEMBER 27 -YOM KIPPURORTHODOX —8:30A M.-HILLEL HOUSECONSERVATIVE-9:30A M -IDA NOYESHALLREFORM —10:30 A M - HILLEL HOUSETUES., WED ,SEPT 28, 29.30 THURS., -BUILD HILLEL SUKKAH -IN BACKYARDTUESDAY -SEPTEMBER 28 - STOP BY THE HILLEL AND STUDENTS FORISRAEL TABLE AT STUDENT ACTIVITIESNIGHT - IDA NOYES HALLFRIDAY -OCTOBER 1 - MEALS IN THE HILLEL SUKKAHSATURDAY — OCTOBER 2 SIGN UP NOW. -$4 00 For Members$5 50for Non-MembersSUNDAY -OCTOBER 3 - OPEN HOUSE FOR NEW STUDENTS- 5:00 P MFREE - YOU MUST MAKE RESERVATIONSISRAEL-JEWISH FOLK SING-A-LONGWITH RIKI LIPPITZ ■ WELCOME HBACK! ■Let the Hyde Park GarageTake Care of Your A uto NeedsMechanical — Foreign & DomesticIndoor Monthly Parking WithPick-Up & Delivery ServiceNeed a Question Answered AboutYour Car?

IL 60637. 8/82Chicago Literary Review. Friday, September 24.1982 -19TRIVIAL DETAILSOn Tuesday, Randi forces herself to withstand the last half of her biology labby anticipating how much she would enjoy repotting her spider plants that even¬ing. But when the miserable afternoon comes to an end, she changes her mind.As she flies from the science building to her dormitory, she surmises that waitinguntil Saturday might help make the three days between more bearable.Wednesday, Thursday. Plans for indoor gardening float in and out of her daydreams.On Friday, Randi recollects an incident from her childhood. Her mother, ap¬parently in a hurry to keep an evening appointment, was eager for Randi to getinto bed. Frustrated by her daughter’s objections, she hung a piece of Randi’sfavorite cinnamon candy from the ceiling by a string. It dangled over Randi'spillow. This candy was to be the first thing that Randi saw upon waking the nextmorning. “The sooner you close your eyes and go to sleep,” Randi’s mother toldher, “the sooner you will open them and find your reward.” All night the little girldreamt of trying to pull the candy down.When Saturday finally arrives, Randi is reluctant to do anything at all. Wakinglate, she feels drained of all motivation. After lunch she lays on her bed unable tomove. She pretends that she is a bag of sand slowly losing its contents. Thesand seeps out of her feet, and then her legs. Then her torso, her arms, head.She is weightless. She begins to drift upward, toward the spot on the ceiling thatshe has been watching for the last hour. Higher, higher, until the tile brushes hercheek: Randi sits up quickly, startled by the shadow of her hair falling across herface.She walks to the windowsill. She moves one corner of the curtain aside andlooks out. Several people pass by. More than one disappointed customer of theU.S. Post tries the locked door of the station across the street. Randi sees themall as familiar faces. They are strangers. But strangers always look like everybodyelse she knows.Randi lets the curtain fall back into place. She runs her fingers along the leaf ofa spider plant. College life is no longer very satisfying.Sometimes Randi sits down at her desk with a biology text. Half an hour afteropening the book she finds herself gliding back into consciousness, ocasionallyshe wonders where she has been in the lost interval.At parties, Randi tells her friends that she is bored with school. They exchangeplans for summer amusements. On the telephone, Randi tells her mother thatclasses are no longer relevant to life. They discuss their favorite soap operas.To relieve the monotony of empty weekends, Randi devotes Saturday after¬noons to practical chores. Searching for company at this time of the week is like¬ly to lead to a discussion of Freud or De Toqueville. Someone always needs anidea for a paper. But Randi finds that she no longer has anything to say in herown essays. And without the shadow of Monday morning cast upon her books,she cannot study. Besides, Sunday always provides enough time to worry aboutexams, papers, and lab write-ups.Last week, she washed and pressed the white lace curtains. Now they lookfresher than they were when her mother presented them to her as a “dorm-warming” gift. “No girl,” her mother said on that occassion, “should allow col¬lege to soil her good taste.”Randi assumed that her mother’s “good taste” lead her to Randi’s father intheir college days. As she gathers up her plants, she idly wonders if that samegood taste is not responsible for the new ballet teacher her mother found lastwinter.When she comes back from the bathroom to collect extra pots and her bag ofdirt, Randi glances at the digital clock next to her bed. Four-ten. Frank will comeby or call sometime around five o’clock. Chinese food might be nice for dinner,she thinks. And she can wear her new black pants.She has one hour to repot three plants. Certainly enough time. Perhaps toomuch. Unless she moves slowly. Randi takes great prilarge spider plant that herfather used to have in his law office. His secretary had finally killed that plant byoverwatering it. But its three descendents are prospering. Randi plans to presentone of them to her father for his birthday next month.In the bathroom she spreads newspapers near the sink closest to the window.She places two plants on the sill and sits down on the floor with the third. Theywere just young sprouts when she brought them to college with her. Somehow,they had helped to ease the homesickness she felt for her dog Cinnamon.Randi did not miss the rest of her family. When she came to school almostseven months ago, she left Orchard Hill without much hesitation. She was tiredof her little brothers’ spying. And her parents’ ridiculous rules. What differencedid it make if she came home at two in the morning or five? Just three hours.Besides, her father had promised her a pair of diamond studs for her ears if shedid well during her first semester. “Lord knows,” he explained to Randi beforeshe went away, “medical schools look just as favorably on state schoolgraduates as they do on the hot shots-out of Princeton or Yale.”From September until December Randi worked hard to earn her earrings. Butshe did not think about them much. Instead, she would imagine the joy of sailingthrough the streets in a red sports car just like the one that her mother’s bestfriend Trudy drove.Randi places the plant on the floor and feels her ears. She remembered to putthe studs back in this morning. Once before she lost them. Only luck causedFrank to find them in his calculator case. She must have been very tired whenshe hid them there. Or drunk. But she has not forgotten her diamonds this time.Randi shakes the plant loose from its pot. Then she wipes her fingers on thenewspaper. She hates to get dirt under her nails. Looking at her hand, shedecides that the new color of nail polish, “bronzed cherry”, is not quite right forher complexion. Maybe she can give the bottle away.Linda, who lives across the hall from Randi, walks into the bathroom. She isRandi’s closest friend at college. Her green near-sighted eyes gaze at Randi.Randi smiles and then looks carefully at her friend’s new designer jeans. Shesays hello. "Like your jeans,” she adds as an afterthought.“Thanks."20 - Chicago Literary Review, Friday, September 24,1982 “Just get them?”“Yeah, Mom sent them in the mail today. Sack’s spring sale.”Randi opens the plastic bag of potting soil and begins to pour it into the newpot. Then she places the plant inside this pot and covers the roots with more dirt.Linda continues to look at her. Randi can tell that Linda has something on hermind. Some good gossip would help to pass the time before Frank calls her. Butshe doesn’t want to sound too eager. So she waits for Linda to speak.“But I’m not really sure that these jeans fit,” Linda continues. “They might bea little too big here,” she says as she pulls the waist out. “And here at thehips.”Randi cannot be sure. She likes the jeans. After all, they are Calvin Klein’s. Butnot everyone can wear Calvin’s. She surveys Linda’s figure. “I’m not sure...” shebegins. Linda has a much more boyish body than she does. She can eat pizza,candy, ice cream, anything she wants without gaining an ounce. Some girls justhave that kind of metabolism. But, Randi reminds herself, men like her kind ofbody better. It’s more feminine.“Maybe they could be taken in a hair at the waist,” Randi finally declares.“But I’m not sure that would help this puckering over here,” Linda says as shesits down on the sink and points to a fold in the crotch.“What are you doing for dinner tonight?” Randi asks.“Maybe pizza, but I’m not sure. Mark has been so worried about his complex¬ion lately.” Linda hops off the sink and closes herself into one of the stalls.“I have a pair of jeans that my brother gave me after he grew out of them,”Randi calls out to her friend. “They don’t quite fit me, but maybe you’d like to trythem on.”“Sure,” Linda calls back.“When I’m done with these plants.”“OK. Randi?”Randi does not answer. She is waiting for Linda to continue. “I think this is oneof the most important weekends in my life.” Still Randi does not say anything.She knows that people always divulge more of their secrets when not pressed. Infact, Randi’s mother was able to squeeze the whole story of Trudy’s divorce outof her by calmly eating doughnuts. So she pats down the new earth around theplant and encourages her friend to continue by saying nothing.“Mark and me have to do some serious thinking about our situation.”This is almost more than Randi has hoped for. Talking about sex is sometimesmore fun than having it. Randi stands up and turns on the water. “Is somethingwrong?”, she asks Linda with concern.“No, not at all”, Linda replies as she flushes the toilet. She emerges from thestall and perches herself on the sink next to the one that Randi is using. “I amvery serious today...” As if surprised at herself, Linda begins to giggle. Shestops abruptly and then frowns. “I’ve reached the point in my life where I mustbegin to make adult decisions.”Linda catches Randi’s eyes in the long mirror above the three sinks. Randi istesting the temperature of the water. Linda’s short, blonde hair glitters with thereflection of the flourescent light. Randi still does not say anything.“Where’s Frank?” Linda asks.“He’s at the gym, running and lifting weights. He tries to stay in shape evenwhen he’s not playing football.” Randi shifts her focus in the mirror to her-self.Her lower lip protrudes just enough to give her a slight pout. She wipes a slightsmudge of mascara from the corner of an eye. Next she checks to make surethat Linda sees the expression on her face. Randi does not want her friend tothink that she, Randi, wouldn’t rather that Frank be doing something else. Yet atthe same time Randi modulates the tone of her voice to imply that sheunderstands the importance of Frank’s weekly visits to the gym. Linda must notget the impression that Randi is jealous of Frank’s time. If anything, the situationis exactly the opposite: Frank is jealous of her time.“Mark has chem lab today”, Linda explains in answer to the question that Ran¬di does not ask. “He wants me to live with him next year.”Randi bites her lip and turns up the hot water. Linda was a virgin when she metMark last September. She came to school from an overprotected home and hadnot understood the first thing about life. Randi instructed her on every subjectfrom birth control to clothing to alcohol. What could Linda know about sharingapartments?“But you might want to try the new Chinese place,” Randi continues. “And Ihave a really pretty new color of nail polish that matches your tan trousers.”“That’s an idea.” Linda tugs at her waist again. She leans against the sinksomewhat uncomfortably. “But anyway, no matter where we go, Mark will want tocome to some decision about next year.”Next year, Randi reminds herself, she will have a car. That is, if she does wellthis semester. But she can’t really tell Linda. After all, Linda’s father is puttingthree kids through college at the same time. For Linda, a car is out of the ques¬tion. So Randi has to be careful not to make her friend feel inferior by discussingsuch things.“So,” Linda continues, “I really have to figure out what’s best for us, soon.The dorm registration cards for next year are due at the end of this week.”Randi removes the first plant from the sink and begins to run water for thenext. After taking so much care with the first, she suddenly decides that suchdilligence is unnecessary. The exact temperature can not be that important. Butthe water pressure is too strong and she fills the pot too quickly. Some loose dirtfrom the top spills into the sink with the extra water. “What are you going to tellhim?” Randi asks.“I’m not sure,” Linda replies. “It would be fun to have an apartment...”Sometimes Linda’s naivete bothers Randi: she is so unaware of how much sheneeds to learn. And how can she be sure that Mark is mature enough himself?After all, Linda is so inexperienced. She was not allowed to wear makeup untilshe was sixteen. And her parents always set a midnight curfew. She had nevereven been to a bar until she left home. Someone who had been so shelteredshould probably be required to stay in student housing for at least two years.Randi starts to teil her friend that she shouldn't rush things too much, butchanges her mind. She doesn’t want to make Linda’s decisions for her. “Whatwould stop you?’’ she finally asks.“I guess I’m just not sure enough about our long term plans. What if meetsomebody else?’’“Well,’’ Randi explains, “Of course that’s possible...even likely. Mark’s justthe first guy that you’ve really been interested in. You don’t want to limityourself.”“But I wonder if living together will do that...” Linda rolls up the bottom of herjeans into cuffs and then unrolls them.“It certainly could,” Randi gives her advise cautiously. True, she understandsLinda’s situation better than Linda herself can, but she doesn’t want to hurt herfriend’s feelings. After all, Linda can’t help it if her parents were so strict. Randisits down to work on the last of the three plants.“What about you and Frank?” Linda asks.Randi accidentally spills half of the bag of soil that she is pouring. “Shit!” sheshouts as she quickly stands up to wash off her hands. She shakes them dry andleans against the sink next to Linda. Then she turns to examine her earrings inthe mirror. She pushes her shoulder length, chestnut hair behind her left ear andadmires the effect. Diamonds look so nice> against dark hair.“It is serious between us, of course,” she tells Linda without turning from themirror. Another girl comes into the bathroom and disappears into one of thestalls. “But I’m ready for it,” she declares. “Though I hadn’t expected to findmyself so involved at this point.”Linda nods. “It is a little frightening isn’t it?”“No, not exactly,” Randi corrects her. “But women have to be careful. Wecan’t give up our freedom.”Of course, Randi thinks, she must emphasize these things to Linda even if shedoes not need to worry about them herself. Freedom is not really a problem withher and Frank. Randi will not let him be too possesive, but she can handle that.Linda can’t.“Yeah,” Linda agrees. “I don’t want to get too tied to Mark. If I just settle forthe first thing that comes along, maybe I won’t be able to recognize somethingbetter.”“That’s so true,” Randi nods adamantly. She can not disagree. “My mother’sfriend Trudy is a good example. She married the first guy she ever slept with. Hewas a real possisive creep. Anyway, it took her fifteen years to get rid of him.And even now she’s still guilty about seeing other men.”“So you’re not going to live with Frank next year?”Randi begins to scoop up some of the spilled dirt. She adds it to the last plant.Linda isn't ready for it and probably doesn’t want to see that her friend is. ButRandi can’t blame Linda for feeling bad. After all, she is so far behind for herage. “Do you have any jewelry polish?” she asks her.“No, sorry.”“These earrings need to be polished. Maybe I should just take them to thejeweler.”“Can you do them yourself?”“Maybe. But anyway, I wouldn’t move into an apartment with anyone unless ILANGUAGECOURSESThrough Chicago Cluster ofTheological Schools at theLutheran School of ChicagoProfessional instruction byexperienced teachersand/or native speakers in:FRENCH • GERMANLATIN » SPANISHFees range from $80 for 10 hours of instruc¬tion per quarter to $250 for $50 hours.

I think that having a car mighthelp. So I wouldn’t be stuck there with him all the time.”“Mark thinks that it might be better if we had a third person living with us. If wehad a fight, neither of us would have to break a lease since we could still live inthe apartment with the third person. Even when we broke up.”Randi smiles. “Still, we have to be careful about isolating ourselves.”“Yes,” Linda replies. “Apartments can be so isolating.”“But,” Randi adds quickly, “Daddy’s promised me a car for next year...’’At five-thirty Randi turns off her stereo. She and Frank have decided to go for athick crust pizza. As she shuts the door, she looks across the room and noticeshow nice the plants look in their new homes. Her father will be pleased with hisbirthday present, she thinks. After she locks the door she walks to the full lengthmirror at the other end of the hall. Here she examines herself closely and makesa slight adjustment to her belt.

No, my goal in life is not to go out and save the world.That’s unrealistic anyway. I’m going to make some money. But if you’ve hadeven one course in beginning economics you’d know that with efficientmanagement, the price of stuff goes down, and more people can get it.Everybody benefits.Anyway, where I went to college they had this thing where you had totake a semester of humanities, like it didn’t even matter what your majorwas. It was a total waste of time. I don’t think they do it anymore.I had the wonderful fortune of having the teacher who’d thought up thecourse to begin with. He was a real hardass, Leonard Woodley. He seemedto think you had to know everything or you couldn’t do one little thing, likeyou had to know physics or you couldn’t paint a picture. We had to read allthis old shit that was supposed to be real important because it had beenaround for a thousand years. I didn’t have any use for it. I cut class alot.It was mostly guys in that class. There was one chick who was kind of cute,but before class was even over, you’d see her boyfriend looking through thelittle window in the door, like he was saying, you’re not even going to get achance to talk to this broad. There was one other chick, kind of a dog, whosat next to me. I talked to her a couple of times, but it was like if you werejust a little bit nice to her, she’d start talking and talking, mostly about herold boyfriends, which was probably just wishful thinking. After a while Ijust ignored her as much as possible without being too rude.So I was kind of interested when, maybe a month into the semester, thisreal fox walked into class. She had jet black hair that went all the way toher ass, and big, brown eyes like on a deer. She was dressed like a hippybut with class. She was wearing a guy’s shirt that was buttoned up onlyabout two-thirds of the way, and her nipples were outlined real clear likeshe was coming out and saying tits were made for guys to play with.Dr. Woodley came in and saw her after he put his stuff on his desk. Hesmiled and went, “I see we have a new face today.” I guess he got his Ph.D.from being so observant.“I’m Sharon Gates,” she said, and I just about died and went to heaven,her voice was so sweet. “I’m taking the maximum course-load already, but Iheard so much about this section that I wanted to come and sit in, if it’s allright.”Dr. Woodley kind of pruned up his face and said, “Well, it’s veryheartwarming to find a student so enthusiastic about learning. I wish I couldaccomodate you, but we have a rule prohibiting auditors.”I just had to go, “Oh, come on, Dr. Woodley.” His chin practically fell offhis face and for a second, I thought he was going to kick me out, too. “Didyou tell Miss Gates she could audit this course?” he asked.I went, “I told her I didn’t know, but you probably wouldn’t mind, sinceshe was really interested in the material.” I said it just like that, withouteven thinking. I’m like that. If I have a choice, I’ll go for it, every time.He shook his head and winked at her. “I have nothing against it, but theregistrar better not catch us.”All I could think about that hour was what a cool thing I’d done gettingher into the class and hoping she’d like me for it. Dr. Woodley called on meonce and asked me about the relationship between these two things in abook I hadn’t read, so I said how one was a symbol of the other, and hegoes, “Well that’s a very interesting observation, Mr. Croft, can you expandon this?,” and I go, uh, well, um, and finally he calls on somebody else anddidn’t bother me again. When the bell rang he assigned the weekly essay. Ithink it had something to do with Dante.I made a big deal about getting all my notebooks together so I could catchher as she walked out. “I’m glad you made it into class,” I said. It was thebest line I could think of. She goes, “Oh wow,” and flashed this really nicesmile. “That was very sweet of you. Why did you do that? You don’t evenknow me.”I go, “What the hell, right?. You’re not going to hurt anyone by sitting inon the class.”So she goes, “Well, that was great of you to do that. I’ll have to returnthe favor sometime. Anyway, what do you think of the essay assignmentshe gives? They seem kind of strange.”I went, “I don’t know. I usually don’t even write them down. They don'tcount for much. He says they’re mostly for our benefit. He just hands it backwith a C and says you have to develop your theme better or some B.S. likethat. Most of the grade’s in the final.” Right after I said that I wished Ihadn’t. She was really into school and probably thought I was pretty dumb.Like they say, it’s all in your presentation.She was all I could think about that weekend. The next time I saw her Iasked her out. She said she was real sorry but she was already doingsomething. But she didn’t sound all that broken up about it and she didn’tsay when she did have time. I kind of expected it. She was too smart for meanyway.About two weeks later something very strange happened. I had kind ofwandered into class. I was hungover, l had missed the last session, I hadn tdone the assignment or the reading, you know the story. Woodley was going around class handing back the weekly essay, and he plopped one down rightin front of me. I didn’t say anything about it, because I didn't want to makea big deal in front of the class about the fact that I hadn’t done theassignment. I figured I would just see who it really belonged to and slide itto them without making too much of a fuss. I read what he had written onthe back:Fine work. Too bad you don’t share your insight more often with someof your less perceptive classmates. AI turned it over. On the front was typed Wayne C. Croft. Me!You can probably figure out what happened. It had to be Sharon. She wasreturning the favor I’d done her. Maybe felt bad for not wanting to go outwith me. Besides, she probably enjoyed writing the damn thing. I looked upand when she looked at me I winked. She just looked down, without smiling.It gave me a funny feeling.It kept up like that, every week. I’d stroll into class and get the essayback with a big, fat A. Sometimes in the middle of discussion Dr. Woodleywould go, “I believe Mr. Croft had something to say about that,” and I’d dothe best I could from skimming the paper before class settled down.Sometimes I’d use these words that I didn’t even know what they meant! Iwatched Sharon one time when we were supposed to hand the papers in.She didn't do it then; she must have slipped it under his office door orsomething. Hell, if she tried to give it to him, he wouldn't have taken it;even if he didn’t see my name on it, he’d never take the time to gradesomething from an auditor, god forbid. That's why I didn’t try to talk to herabout it, though I felt like thanking her. If she didn’t want anyone to know,it was fine with me.That spring semester was great. My other courses were a breeze. I wentout for the baseball team and got to play shortshop. In the afternoon I’d gethigh and go to practice. I started going out with this chick I met at the dormparty. We broke up about a month ago.Everything was simply far out until it got close to finals. I needed thathumanities course to graduate. He'd already given the topic of the final, atwenty-page motherfucker due Friday of exam week. That's where most ofthe grade was. I had no idea of what was going on in class. I figured itwould be kind of stretching it to expect Sharon to do the final for me, but Ididn’t know what else I could do. I decided I would have to ask her justwhat the deal was.The day of the last class I was in bad shape. I was at this party where abuddy of mine was making bloody marys with this ethanol he'd ripped offfrom bio lab, and there was this bong going around that never seemed to goout. I told some of my buddies that there was this real looker of a chickdoing all my work in one class because I'd gotten her in for free. They said Iwas bullshitting and we split our sides laughing.I dragged myself through the shower and got dressed. On the way out Iwas trying to figure out what I was going to say to Sharon, when thecolored lady at the front desk stopped me.She handed me this big manila envelope with Wayne C. Croft written on itin these round, you know, the way a chick writes. I ripped it open. There itwas, all typed up, neat and clean, eight whole pages longer than it had tobe, and with a list of sources or whatever at the end.That was it. I was one happy son of a bitch. I didn't even go to class. Iwent to Woodley's office and tossed the paper under the door.I spent that week getting high as a kite. After graduation I was going togo home, make some good money selling Chevys for my dad. hang out withsome of my old high school buddies, and get ready for B-school.A couple days before commencement I stopped by social sciences to see ifmy paper had been graded. There it was, because I had turned it in early, Ithough, real proud of myself.I turned it over, and this is what I saw:Extremely disappointing. Your treatment of the issues involved ishaphazard at best, and your assertions, such as they are. have norevelance to the assigned topic. You also apparently forgot toproofread your work for simple mistakes in spelling and grammar.FOffice hrs tu-th 2-4I started for the door, wondering what the hell I was going to do. There wassomebody coming towards me down the hall. It was that ugly chick who satnext to me in class. When we got close she went, “Got your paper backalready? How did you do?” But she didn’t wait for an answer.—Steve EatonChicago Literary Review.

The film ischock-full of sexual tension, political pole-misism, and a touch of mysogyny. Corrupi-ton, graft, bourgeois amorality; all are sil¬houetted against the bright and hopefulfuture of Adenauer's Germany, rising likethe phoenix our of the ashes in the aftermathof the Second World War.Although similar in tone to Fassbinder'searlier work The Marriage of Maria Braun(these two films together with VeronikaVoss comprise a trilogy) Lola is of anothertexture entirely. Having familiarizedviewers with his general thematic frame¬work in Maria Braun, Fassoinder has freedhimself of the need for overt proseletyzing.Lola is woven of subtlety and nuance and,although there is a story to be told, it is notprimarily narrative, as was its predecessor,but essentially impressionistic.The plot centers around a small Bavariantown whose postwar growth rate of almostmalthusian proportions threatens to radi¬cally shift the distribution of wealth among its citizens. In the name of progress andprofits, a single contractor named Schuck-ert and his cohorts (including the mayor,the bank president, and the chief of police)have devised a scheme for the ultimate realestate deal which would deliver to them virtual ownership of the community.A hitch develops when the Building Commissioner (presumably on the payroll) diesunexpectedly. A successor is hired andSchuckert immediately tries to assess his"receptiveness" to the project. Commis¬sioner von Bohm however, is beyond re¬proach. His cool professionalism permeateshis personality, he is punctual, precise andimperturbable — until he meets Lola, who,unbeknownst to him, is Schuckert's mistress and mother of his illegitimate daugh¬ter.The situation is familiar — and as old asEve herself. Since then the idea of woman astemptress and instigator of man's fall fromgrace has recurred in many forms, from thelegend of the Lorelei to Nabokov's Lolita toHeinrich Mann's novel Professor Unrat, onwhich Josef von Sternberg based his 1930 film classic Der Blaue Engel (The BlueAngel) starring Marlene Dietrich and EmilJannings. Lola however, shares only skele¬tal similarities with these works. The fleshand blood, and the life Fassbinder breathesinto the film, are unmistabkably his own. Asusual his casting expertise is uncannily intu¬itive. Mario Ansdorf as Schuckert is simplya stroke of genius; his bear like physiqueand coarse features suggest the stereotypical Bavarian (pars pro toto for all postwarGermans). He is still provincial, unaccus¬tomed to wealth, and displays a boorishpreference for bordellos cloaked in red velvet.This bordello/cabaret where Lola entertains her customers (she is also a singer) isthe milieu where she and Schuckert aremost at home. There is here an urgent display of bourgeois opulence, immediate gratification and moral bankruptcy. In additionto this rococo environment, Fassbinderbathes the characters in colored lights — hotcolors, red, orange, pink — to underscoretheir sizzling hedonism.In contrast, the interior spaces inhabitedby von Bohm are spare, geometrical, andcooly lit. To emphasize his modern pragmatism, Fassbinder shows von Bohm's apartment as uncluttered and furnsihed withpieces of fine contemporary design. Lighting effects create patches of pastel yellow,tangerine, and green so that several frameslook more like paintings than shots for thecinema. Von Bohm's bedroom, his innersanctum, however, is a deep cobalt blue, indicative of his detachment and reserve. Indeed, von Bohm's face is almost alwaysshown in a bluish light, his blue eyes glimmering with Truth. Fassbinder's most vi¬sually fascinating sequence is shot as Lolaand von Bohm are having a conversationabout corruption while sitting in her redroadster. She is bathed in dusty, rosy lightwhereas he is shot in deep blue; in essence,Fassbinder removes all sense of color fromvon Bohm, and, rendering him in lighter anddarker tones of grey creates a kind ofchiarascuro effect. Initially Fassbindercross-cuts the two shots to emphasize themoral interstice between these two charac¬ters; moments later however, we arestunned to find both characters and bothlighting techniques in the same frame —and we begin to wonder about the extent oftheir polarization.With Lola Fassbinder succeeded in evoking they halcyon superficiality of the 'fifties,when Germany experienced the most remarkable economic resurrection ever witnessed — the Wirtschaftswunder or socal led"economic miracle". From Fassbinder'spoint of view, however, the miracle was notthe result of divine intentions, but ratherbrought about by a diabolical cabal — hu¬mankind.Continued from page 7esting shapes.

After the war, however,technological advances, including smallerand less complicated cameras and faster(i.e. more sensitive) film, made photo¬graphy into a more versatile medium,which heightened its attraction for many vi¬sual artists of the avant-garde.Avant Garde Photography in Germany1919 1939 by Van Deren Coke is a collectionof one hundred twenty photographs (hand¬somely printed full page duotone plates) bythe most innovative photographers workingin Weimar Germany, including Laszlo Mo¬holy-Nagy, Albert Renger Patzsch, ErichSalomon, and Grete Stern. In his informa¬tive introduction, Coke, who is Director ofPhotography at the San Francisco Museumof Modern Art, explains the evolution of thisnew vision, including the socio political,technological and artistic stimuli to whichthe photographers were collectively ex¬posed, and comments with insight on thephotographic styles and preferences of eachindividual.The most important architect of this newvision was Laszlo Moholy-Nagy, a Hungarian who had made his home in Germany. Mo-holy, who worked in a myriad of visualmedia including film, painting, and sculpture as well as photography, was a Masterat the Bauhaus and therefore deeply in¬volved in the innovative concepts of designemanating from Dessau. He was interestedprimarily in the formal qualities of photo¬graphy — most of his work emphasizes thegeometrical nature of his subject, especiallyshapes resulting from heightened angles oroblique lighting. He also made extensive useof the technique of cropping, often shootingfull-frame and then printing only a small de¬tail which he found aesthetically pleasing.Moholy had a particular preference forthe diagonal, as can be seen from the photo¬graph entitled simply "Street” (1928). Al¬though the viewer's attention focuses imme¬diately on the man in the tree — who is he?what is he doing there? — it is apparent notonly from the title but from the prepon¬derance of diagonal lines that Moholy's in¬terest lies not in the man but in the lineswhich make up the street and its surround¬ings. The busy lines of the streetcar tracks,the guardrail, and the row of automobiles inthe upper left quadrant play off the wideswath of pavement bisecting the photo¬graph, as do the diagonals and geometricpatterns which make up the lower rightquadrant. This visual action shifts our atten¬tion from the man in the tree to the rush oflines and patterns before us. Moholy's de¬light in the use of light and reflection is also evident in this photograph. Moholy exposedfor the brightness of the street surface, ren¬dering the man, the trees, and the street-lamp essentially devoid of detail, almost sil¬houettes. These rich blacks, together withthose of the automobiles, juxtaposed againstthe bright almost paperwhite of the street,are also instrumental in bringing our atten¬tion to the form, rather than the content, ofthe photograph.Alfred Renger Patzsch, who never consi¬dered himself an artist, explored anotherslightly divergent avenue of photography.He saw his own role primarily as that of doc-umention, recording reality as it existed,but ultimately created an exaggerated,heightened feel of realism. He photographedhis subjects straight on, with none of the in¬terpretive angles of Moholy, and chose forhis subjects things that could be found in ev¬eryday life, most notably close ups of botan¬ical specimens, photographed in such a waythat the result was almost that of a technicalillustration. The mathematical precisionwas paramount — but often the photographswere strangely beautiful.Renger Patzsch also devoted much of histalent to a then-fledgling profession — thatof commercial photography. As technologi¬cal advances created the capacity for in¬creased production of consumer goods, in¬creasingly sophisticated means formarketing them en masse were needed.Some of his work in this area is stunning inits modernity, especially a lay out for Kaf-fee Hag, where rich ebony coffee shimmersin a white ceramic cup and in the fore¬ground the oily black beans gleam back atthe camera.Although no longer the only viable genrein photography, portraiture continued to bevery popular in the twenties and thirties.Rather than objective documentation, however, these novel photographs were intend¬ed to expose the essence of their subjects.One of the most notable is a portrait of theyoung Bertolt Brecht by Greta Stern. Thephotograph is extremely revealing, comingso close to Brecht's Bavarian roots that, asCoke aptly states, "it smells of brown breadand onions."Also contributing to this great era in pho¬tography was Erich Salomon, a journalistfrom a once wealthy Jewish family, whosestill considerable social stature enabled himto attend, as a gues\ functions not open tothe press. Dressed in formal attire, he wouldact as his own photographer, surreptitiouslysnapping candid shots of politicians and visiting dignitaries virtually unnoticed. Thefact that Salomon felt so at home in this milieu however, was both his blessing and hiscurse. Although his familiarity with theupper echelons of German society permitted him easy access for insightful photojournalism, it denied him the necessary depthof-field with which he might have delineated Renger-Patzsch, "Kaffee Hag", 1925the dangers converging in the background.He did not heed warnings to depart Europein 1933 and, although Coke mentions it onlyperfunctorily, Salomon ultimately perishedat Auschwitz.In addition to photographs, Coke has alsochosen to include several photograms, nega¬tive images which are created by arrangingobjects on photosensitive paper and then ex¬posing it to white light. Again, the most ad¬venturous of these were made by Moholy,using bits of screen and shards of brokenglass to create a variety of textures, densi¬ties, and shapes.Coke is also to be praised for the inclusionof the work of several women. The twentieswere a kind of "golden age" for women inthe arts, where creative urges, long sup¬pressed, were finally allowed to surface.This is evident in the work of Lucia Moholyand her interpretive photographs of Bau¬haus architecture; the fashion photographyof Yva; and the eclectic work of Lotte Ja¬cobi, whose distinctive portrait of Franz Lederer graces the cover of the book.In addition to the introduction, Coke hasalso included short biographies of each ofthe photographers, providing general information on their more recent artistic endeavors. This selected chronology maps out significant events in the history of themovement, showing the development oftrends and throwing light on questions of in¬fluence. The chronology also underscoresthe terrific impact of the political climate onthe artistic community. The selected bibli¬ Moholy-Nagy, "Street", 1928ography is just that. While not exhaustive, itincludes several important books, catalogues, and articles on the period, (someavailable only in German), as well as booksby the photographers, including Moholy'stheoretical work, Ma/ere/, Fotographie,Film, and Renger Patszch's seminal effort,Die We/f ist schon, (The World is Beauti¬ful).r Clip and SaveIIII «I £loI INTRAMURAL SPORTSAUTUMN QUARTER1982ACTIVITYTouch Football (M)Volleyball (M.W)Tennis-s (M.W)Ultimate Frisbee (M.W)Table Tennis-s (M.W)Handball-s (M.W)Swimming (M.W.C)Badminton-s (W)Volleyball (C)Basketball (M.W)Badminton-s (M)Turkey Trot (M.W,C)Photo Contest (M.W.C)Clip and Save ENTRIES DUEOct. 6Oct. 6Oct. 6Oct. 6Oct. 13Oct. 13Oct. 13Oct. 20Oct. 20Oct. 27Oct. 27Nov. 9Nov. 24 312 643-5007 CHAMBER ENSEMBLETRIO CON BRIOFLUTE • OBOE • VIOLAMostly Music Lunchtime ConcertSept. 28 • WBEZ •91.5 FM • 12:15 PM Theses ■ Tutorial Papers ■Notary Public * Resumes -Research Work - MSS - CopyingBirdie Reeve1525 E 53rd St. • 643-9044JOHN p, PANZICA, D.D.S.Generol DentistryToo long since your last check-up?We are conveniently located in theHyde Park Bank BuildingHours by Appointment493-2222 1525 E. 53rd St. Suite 625THE GREY CITY JOU R N AL—F R I DAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 1982-11,t on Adams. . . .to State Street, turn right (north), and descend.We show transfer, get it back.Subway is elevated, we come to our stop, Fullerton, anaIt comes; we board.Cars are dirty but have mapsarnn5309 S.

This is a near imposs¬ible task, as my own experiences and reflec¬tions could fill several issues of the GreyCity Journal, and being only one gay person,I could not possibly do justice to the variedexperiences of the many gay men and gaywomen in Hyde Park and at the U of C. Instead, I merely wish to convince the readerthat there is a gay presence on campus, andto answer a few basic questions that the per¬son unfamiliar with gay life on this campusmight ask.First of all, who are the gay people oncampus, and just how many are there? Atfirst glance, Hyde Park probably does notlook very gay to anybody. The fact is, how¬ever, that there are at the very least severalhundred gay men and gay women oncampus, and perhaps a few thousand inHyde Park. These people are everywhere inthe community. I know graduate and under¬graduate students, faculty members, highschool students, the woman at the checkoutcounter, a few baggage boys at a grocery, amusic teacher, members of the church aswell as clergy, men working out at the gym— all of whom are gay. Contrary to popularbelief, it is not just the well educated, the ar¬tistic, the overly effeminate males or thebutch females, who are gay. Gays exist alsoon both sides of the all too obvious class barriers in Hyde Park.Why, then, if there are so many gay peo¬ple, are they not more visible, even to eachother? One answer should be obvious, thatnot all gay men are identifiable by limpwrists and short hair, and not all lesbianswear leather jackets. Another reason is thatmany gays choose to try to very discreet,some out of fear of persecution, some tryingto convince themselves and others that theyare so comfortable with their sexuality thatit need not be an issue, some perhaps forother reasons.A few years ago, for example, two menwalked up to the G.A.L.A. (Gay and LesbianAlliance) office and announced to the staffperson that they were students and had beenlovers secretly, in the same dorm, for fouryears. They figured it was maybe time thatthey told at least one other person, and tooka look into what "gay life" was all about. So,they took an issue of Gay Life magazine andleft.I personally feel that this reluctance to"come out" is unfortunate; gays who down¬play the significance that being gay has intheir lives are usually covering up for theirown insecurity in the matter. Also, of all themany gays I have known who led an openlygay life, the vast majority of them havebeen happier for it.Secondly, what is gay social life like here?How do gays meet each other? Well, oneway is universal, at least for gay men —after many mutual stares and awkwardglances one gay man says "hello" to another and they start to talk. Hyde Parkersalso frequently see each other in bars andother gay establishments on their NorthSide outings to Chicago's gay neighborhood.Gays on campus also meet through circlesof gay friends and their lovers, at dinnerparties, at campus films. The ways of meet¬ing and maintaining a gay social life aremany and varied.There are also numerous gay parties oncampus thrown by students and faculty, to GAYS ON CAMPUSwhich everyone is generally invited. Wordof these parties, however, is often spread byword-of-mouth only. To find out about themyou must already know gay people, or go tothe G.A.L.A. office. The Gay and LesbianAlliance also sponsors publicized socialevents on occasion, and acts as the trulypublic part of the social gay network oncampus.Thirdly, how accepting of homosexualityis the U of C campus? How do non gays("straights") react to discovering thatsomeone is gay? Theoretically, acceptanceof homosexuality should be the norm in anacademic environment where enlightenedminds supposedly prevail and acceptance ofcultural relativism is common. Some peopleare almost required by the principles oftheir field of study (e.g. anthropology) to ac¬cept homosexuals. At the University of Chi¬cago, acceptance is the norm. A universityis usually about as ideal a place as one canfind in which to discover and explore freelythe potentials of a gay or non-gay existence.The U of C is not an exception, even though ahighly visible gay community does not atpresent exist or operate here.Reactions of straights upon finding thattheir classmate or dormmate is gay isusually positive. Rarely do friendships suffer severely as a result of one's "comingout." Frequently, non gay people are quiteencouraging and helpful, becoming curious to find out what gay lifestyles are all about.(I once came out to a good friend mine, who,upon hearing me say "I'm gay," lookedbewildered for a second, paused, thenbrightened and turned to me and said, "Boy,you must have a great time taking showersat the gym!")For others, other people's acceptance isnot yet an issue in their lives. Those who aregay and cautious, those who aren't sure oftheir sexuality or are just discovering it,and straights with questions usually don'ttell others about that aspect of their lives.G.A.L.A. offers discreet weekly discussiongroups aimed specifically at catering to theneeds of these people.In 1970, shortly after the Stonewall riotswhich gave birth to gay liberation in theU.S. occurred, a U of C student — I have un¬fortunately forgotten his name — took a dar¬ing step and put a personal ad in the Maroonfor a gay roommate. He was soon inundatedby a torrent of responses, not necessarilyfrom people looking for a roommate, butalso from dozens of people just wanting totalk to someone gay ("you mean I'm not theonly one?"). Thus was born on campus theChicago Gay Liberation Front, the Mid¬wests's first gay organization, ever. TheC.G.L.F., now re-named G.A.L.A., is stillaround, and is reorganizing this year.G.A.L.A. offers discussion groups for peoplewho are just exploring their gay nature for the first time. These publicized group meet¬ings are held in discreet locations oncampus, featuring not only good discussionin a warm, friendly atmosphere, but also re¬freshments. These groups have been enor¬mously popular for students and non¬students in the past, and are still quitesuccessful. For those who have little needfor the above group, G.A.L.A. also has dis¬cussion groups to debate gay-related issues,sometimes bringing in local politicans, lecturers, or people from the North Side andthe larger Chicago gay community.G.A.L.A. is an organization, open to any¬one, dedicated to the needs of the gay andnon-gay communities, to helping them understand and accept themselves and eachother. There are several varied magazinesavailable in the office for perusal by the general public, and G.A.L.A. will hold regularoffice hours this fall, so that the interestedmay read them. Their first general meetingof the quarter will be announced shortly in afuture issue of the Maroon. The G.A.L.A. office is in Room 301 in Ida Noyes, and theirtelephone number, when it is working, is753-3274.I have not directly addressed myself inthis article to the real issues: I have not discussed my gay experiences here, or men¬tioned the all too numerous sources of mygay anger, or talked about my views of thepolitics of being gay on campus. Perhapsthe Maroon and the Grey City will find it fitto feature articles on these aspects of thebroader University community in the fu¬ture. I only hope that I have made readersaware of the fact that gays do exist on thiscampus, and in numbers which make itclear that gay issues must not be ignored.Trimming Currency, 1907 — Where is the herstory of these women?WOMEN WORKINGby Madelein LevinI did not attend a Women's Union meetinguntil my second year at the U of C despitemy intentions of doing so my first year. Everything I heard about it discouaged mefrom going sooner; people said that nothingever got done, that it was a discussion groupthat only held coffeehouses and ERA bake-sales, that the group was crippled by tensionbetween lesbian separatists and liberal feminists. At the beginning of my second year,feeling like I needed more in my life thanstudying and socializing, I decided to go tothe first meeting and see what it was like formyself. What I found was a diverse group ofwomen who came together out of the desire,not only to discuss feminism and act on theirideas, but also to create a special place forwomen on campus where all women werewelcome and all ideas and feelings could bediscussed in a supportive atmosphere. I enjoyed being part of an all women's space, asI had in a women's consciousness raisinggroup in high school, and I became a steadymember of the group.The Women's Union is what the womenwho constitute it want it to be. In the past ithas been focused on different issues and ac¬tivities; the degree to which the group was discussion- or action oriented varied. Wecombined both organization of events anddiscussion last year, but by the end of theyear we spent most of our time on groupprojects, and discussion centered on theissues that were involved in our work. Ourmeetings were not set up as group discussions along the model of consciousness raising groups; instead we evolved a group procedure suitable to political discussion anddebate.The meetings are run in a democraticfashion, true to feminist ideas of groupprocess. Everyone participates by contributing her ideas and feelings; there is a rotating chairperson who's duty is to insurethat each individual has equal opportunityto speak. Following each meeting and thediscussion which invariably arises from it,there is usually critique and self-critique, atime for each of us to comment on our ownparticipation as well as that of others. We alllearned from being chairperson, and feltthat our leadership skills improved immensely.We learned we could get more accomplished in less time when our meetings werewell organized, and worked hard on projectssuch as our newsletter Thrice Born, and the organization of International Women's Dayevents, slide shows, lectures and coffee¬houses. The Women's Union conceived ofthe newsletter as a means of bringing moreinformation to the University communityabout feminist criticism and social com¬mentary. Thrice Born is published threetimes a quarter, and focusses on women'sissues, events and arts, each issue containsa calendar of women's events in the Chicagoarea. We hope that more women will wish toparticipate by editing and writing thisyear.My political interest in feminism overlapped with my academic interests in anthropology, and I began to want to studymore about feminist theory and the positionof women in society. I started reading morebooks by and about women and soon becamefrustrated with the lack of women's studiescourses available here. At a universitywhere academuc pursuit is valued above allelse, the almost total exclusion of the studyof women and of feminist scholarship fromthe curriculum represented a main sourceof my feelings of oppression and alienation.Others in the group shared my interest, andthrough our aiscussions and reading welearned much about how the exclusion of thestudy of women from the academic disciplines has affected their theoretical andmethodological assumptions.Out of these discussions and many hoursof brainstorming, group study, and writing,we produced a position paper to clarifythese issues and to suggest ways in whichthe University could meet the challengeraised by feminist scholarship. We hoped tointerest faculty in joining students to establish a committee on the study of women, inorder to create an interdisciplinary stu¬dent/faculty seminar and a public lectureseries, both of which will address issuesraised by contemporary feminist scholarship.This year will be a crucial one; we will seeif our work on feminist scholarship and thecurriculum will bear fruit. My experienceworking on this project was very importantto my personal growth last year. A largepart of that experience consisted of the supportive and dedicated women I worked with.I believe that it is possible for all women tocreate the kind of experience in theWomen's Union which meets their needs.One consistent characteristic of theWomen's Union is its wide scope, its abilityto change along with the people who are invovled. Any women who are interested inthe seminar, the newsletter, a discussiongroup, or any other issues should come toour first meeting and discuss them withother women who are eager to exchangeideas and feelings. Our first meeting will beon Wednesday, October 6, at 7 p.m. in IdaNoys Hall.THE GREY CITY JOURNAL—FRI DAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 1982—15several blocks on 55th west of Lake Park dem¬onstrate this. That theory rejected the waycities had developed, with an intricate andclose-grained diversity of uses which focusseson street and sidewalk activity.Instead, the planners argued, differentfunctions should be separated from eachother, with commerce segregated from hous¬ing. In particular, the street is a bad environ¬ment for human beings. Crowded, bustlingstreets, full of people and activity, are bad.People are out on the street because they haveno better place to be. (Interestingly, thistheory bore fruit in Hyde Park during thesame years that television came to dominateour social and cultural lives.) Houses shouldbe turned away from the street, facing inwardtoward sheltered greens.So on 55th today you have rows of town-houses — squat, square pillboxes with noroom in front for loitering — replacing vibrantblocks of storefronts. The townhouses, as wellas the University Condominiums, face inward— the townhouses toward small fenced-inplots of grass and private parking, the Condo¬miniums toward a private park. Further weston 55th Pierce Tower and the Lutheran Schoolof Theology also demonstrate this planningmodel.Commerce and housing were segregated byreplacing the multitude of little shops with theHyde Park Shopping Center. This demon¬strates the planners' bias toward the subur¬ban scheme of living. (Indeed, one local real¬tor actually advertises Hyde Park as "TheSuburb in the City.") Shopping centers weredesigned for the automobile, as a place wherepeople could go once a week, do all their shop¬ping, and go home (and watch television). Thekind of street that attracts people, full of littleshops whose distinct functions draw peoplealong the sidewalk — the kind of street whichmakes city life what it is — was condemnedand destroyed.Four shopping centers were built as the Uni¬versity agents enacted their plan for the area.The artists' colony on 57th Street (where the55th and Lake Park before urban renewal University now plans tohouses) was torn down, w»1moved to the new Harper Cartists' colony had mixed rmercial functions, so the c<and bohemians, which inccago's most famous writeiOver 600 small businessby urban renewal — and l€remained in business in HThere are business stripon 53rd and 57th.

First of all, it's commonly per¬ceived as boring. People go to other parts ofthe city for excitement. Second of all, it's anexpensive place to live. Rents are high, andthey keep getting higher.If you're the kind of person who likes to as¬sign blame — let me rephrase that. If you seekan understanding of the root causes of prob¬lems which confront you, you might be inter¬ested to find that the reasons for both of thesefeatures of life in this neighborhood lie in thepolicies of the University of Chicago towardthe community in which it is located.You would think that with a great institutionlike the University of Chicago in its midst,Hyde Park would be an interesting and excit¬ing place to live.Hyde Park is full of fascinating people doinginteresting things. But it turns out that theneighborhood is not very exciting at all.The University's urban renewal program,dating from the fifties, transformed HydePark into a place where the streets are almostdead and where there is almost nothing todo.Look at 55th Street. There used to be 35 barsbetween Lake Park and Cottage on 55th. Thestreet was one of the main places in the city tohear music — making it one of the majorcenters of music in the nation. Any given nightyou could hear performers like CharlieParker, Miles Davis, Muddy Waters, SonnyStitt in a saxophone duel with Gene Ammons,Coleman Hawkins, Lester Young, CliffordBrown, and on and on. "It was boomtown," re¬calls Saul Tannenbaum, who ran the Beehive,one of the city's greatest jazz clubs, at 55thand Harper before it was replaced by Univer¬sity Condominiums. "Every night there wasaction. It was wonderful entertainment."All that started to change in 1952, when theUniversity established the South East ChicagoCommission to fight crime and urban"blight." The immediate reason behind theSECC's founding was a mass meeting follow¬ing the kidnapping and attempted rape of afaculty wife. It's founding also came just afew years after the Supreme Court outlawedthe use of racially restrictive covenants inreal estate sales. Such covenants had beenused to keep Hyde Park white — by some ac¬counts, with the active encouragement of theUniversity real estate office.In the years following the Supreme Courtdecision, the black population of the neighbor¬ hood rose from 6 percent to 36 percent. By thetime the dust from urban renewal cleared, theblack population had dropped by 39 percent.Under the direction of Julian Levi, in the finest tradition of Chicago power brokers, theSECC had city and federal legislation passed,and used strong-arm tactics and clout, inorder to tear down vast stretches of buildings.The effort to stem "blight" — especially theconversion of apartments into smaller units —gave way by 1953 to developing a plan for totalcommunity renewal.The city planning theory that urban renewalwas based on — which still dominates urbanplanning in American — was a disaster.

"And right behind it is an¬other bus...Now these people used to all be inthe street. Not only in the daytime, but twelve,one, two, three o'clock in the morning — ac¬tion. People walking around, talking, throwing the bull, sleeping with this and that."Now you start putting all those kids onbuses, start closing all the bars and late nightplaces...you're bound to lose the life, the activ¬ity."Behind this suburban impulse — shutting allthe nightclubs, destroying the street life —was a fear of "outsiders," often stated expli-city, which derived from apprehension aboutcrime. It was a similar "them" and "us" viewwhich motivated the displacement of many ofthe area's residents.The demolition of housing during urban ren¬ewal was directed at black and working-classresidents. Every census tract which lost morethan 30 percent of its housing between 1960and 1970 was either 30 or more percent black,or 45 or more percent wage earners, andusually both. Between 1960 and 1970, whenurban renewal was in full swing, the blackpopulation of Hyde Park declined from 36 to 22percent. (It has increased since then, to 49percent in 1980.) During those same years, aneighborhood in which wage-earners hadcomprised 65 percent of the population wastransformed into a neighborhood which was 52percent professional-managerial.One thirty-five year resident of Hyde Parkremembers that around 1969 a number ofhouses near 60th and Dorchester "were still ingood shape relatively good shape. The Univer¬sity owned the property. People were still liv¬ing there but they wanted the people out andthey wanted to level everything. Well, peoplewere fighting to keep those places, but theUniversity said 'No, evict them off.' Just likeyou'd see in The Grapes of Wrath, where theyjust plowed everything down on the farms be¬cause the banks took over. That's just the waythey went in there. They used big plows andplowed them down. People tried to stand in the way, but they got them out of the way, andif they had things inside the plow went rightover it."Since urban renewal, the pressure on low-and moerate-income residents has been keptup by spiralling rents, and by condo conversions, which have displaced hundreds, some¬times thousands of residents each year.Anyone looking for an apartment knowshow hard it is to find one. Anyone renting anapartment knows how high rents are. Rent in¬creases are typically ten to thirty percent a .,year. Several recent developments havepushed rent levels way up — especially theconversion of too many condos too fast, so thatthe overflow of unsold condos are rented outby investors, often for rents twice as high asthey generally were before conversion.Even in this articial market, the high cost ofhousing is largely a function of supply and de¬mand. The rental vacancy rate in Hyde Parkis below one percent — far below what the federal government designates as a housingcrisis. ,•.*.«The crisis-proportion rental shortage is adirect result of urban renewal. In the 15 yearsprior to 1970 the University demolished closeto one-third of all rental housing in HydePark.So besides kicking blacks and working peo¬ple out during urban renewal the Universitycreated conditions which continue to make itdifficult for such people to live here.Students were often pawns in this process,since four or five students sharing rent can af¬ford a place that a single-income family, withchildren to feed and clothe, cannot. But every¬one suffered, as much of the neighborhood'sdiversity, and much of the community spirit,was "renewed" away.Certainly many of the old buildings whichwere torn down were in bad shape. Many,however, were far from unsalvageable. Butthe SECC has never played much of a role inforcing landlords to bring building conditionsup to city code levels. This has been left to ten¬ants, who have enough trouble organizing for such purposes, and then must face an entirelyhostile Housing Court. The SECC, to this day,concentrates on having buildings demolished.Indeed, despite the severe housing shortage,the SECC has opposed groups that wanted torehabilitate housing — when it was intendedfor low-income residents.Why does the University feel so threatenedby its less privileged neighbors? Such atti¬tudes are not really out of character for indi¬viduals and institutions of similar station inthis society. More to the point, how does theUniversity's action reflect on its primary pur¬pose, which (lest we forget) is education? Wasit simply acting in its role as institution, as bigbtreiness? What does the University's role inurban renewal reveal about its central func¬tion? These questions are relevant not only tothe history of Hyde Park, but to the idea of education which is advanced at the University.Urban renewal did halt the decay whichplagued Hyde Park in the fifties, though clearly it went overboard. But Hyde Park did survive. Despite the intense pressures for gentri-fication, the neighborhood retains a strongdiversity. And though it takes some effort tohook up with things that are going on, it is cer¬tainly worth it, for there is a lot going on. Lifein Hyde Park can be pretty bleak, but itdoesn't have to be. Much of what is good aboutthe neighborhood, let me add, is due to thepresence of the University. And much of whatis good is in spite of the Univeristy.Thanks to Ken Wissoker, Philip Grew, MarkHalperin, and Andrew Patner, for use of ma¬terials from Haymarket Interviews (Haymar-ket, Nov. 1980, Dec. 1980, and Sept. 1981).Other sources: "Hyde Park Kenwood: A CaseStudy of Urban Renewal" by Val Press (1971,Center for Policy Studies, UC); Jane Jacobs,The Death and Life of Great American Cities,(1961, Randon House); and "Why You Can'tFind an Apartment in Hyde Park" by JohnCameron, Students for Alternative HousingTask Force (reprinted from the Red Gar¬goyle, April and May 1977).

Some of these, likethe Confessional, were not true movementsat all but critical catch-alls that properly de¬scribed none of the poets listed. Others, likethe Fugitives or the Imagists, were moreformal, issuing manifestos, engaging in in¬ternecine warfare and excommunicating re¬calcitrant members.As a movement, the Beats are about mid¬way between these two poles. In fact theyare not often thought of as a poetic move¬ment at all — Allen Ginsburg is well enoughknown, but Jack Kerouac, Ken Keasy andWilliam Burroughs, the best known Beats,are primarily prose stylists. Many of theBeat poets were adopted from other move¬ments — Gary Snyder and Lawrence Fer¬linghetti from the San Francisco poets, Rob¬ert Duncan, Robert Creeley and CharlesOlson from the Black Mountain school.Moreover, the Beats didn't even producetheir own manifests; Charles Olson's essayProjective Verse, which influenced so manyBeat poets, first appeared in 1950 well be¬fore the height of the movement.In Scratching the Beat Surface, Beat playwright Michael McClure issues the long de¬layed Beat manifesto. In a series of essaysMcClure reinterprets Beat poetics, and il¬lustrates his arguments with examples ofpoetry drawn from such "pre-beat Beats"as Blake, Shelley, and Hart Crane and suchstapels of the movement as Olson, Robert Michael McClureDuncan, Philip Whalen, Allen Ginsburg,Gary Snyder, Jack Kerouac and McClurehimself. Althougn this is an impressive listof talent, the voices that dominate the bookare not contemporary at all; they are thevoices of those two quintessential Americanpoets — Ezra Pound and Walt Whitman.In Part One McClure details the growth of BEATEN PATHhis own involvement with the Beats — fromhis first experience with peyote, a seminalreading with Ginsburg, Whalen, Snyder andPhilip Lamantia at Six Gallery in San Fran¬cisco, to his studies with Charles Olson andRobert Duncan. He illustrates his conclu¬sion that "Much of what the Beat Genera¬tion is about is nature" with examplesdrawn from throughout the Beat spectrum.The poetry is dominated by the spirit of WaltWhitman — from Ginsburg's Howl with itslists, long lines and willingness to accept allaspects of experience, even the sordid, to hisown "Poem" and its assertion of his own animal nature:Linked part to part, toe to knee,eye to thumbMotile feral, a blockhouse of sweatThe smell of the hunt'sA stench...My foetorAlthough the Beats assumed manyaspects of Whitman's voice and poetic style,their attitudes differed from his in important ways. Unlike Whitman they could notcelebrate an America they felt increasinglyestranged from. "We saw that the art of poetry was essentially dead — killed by acade¬mies, by neglect, by lack of love, and by disinterest." The clearest example of thedistance between Whitman and the Beats isAllen Ginsburg's Howl, a major portion ofwhich is included in Scratching the BeatSurface. In spite of its obvious stylistic borrowings and thematic similarities, Howl is apoem Whitman could never have written. Itis a howl of pain, a scream of protest againstan intolerable social and political order.What is more it is without hope — Ginsburgis totally alienated from his society. Anypossible redemption will be purely private— spiritual renewal will come wholly fromwithin, not through social or political progress. However alienated Whitman may have been, either as a man or an artist, henever lost his faith in American democracy.By and large the Beats had, and their individual retreats into various forms of naturemysticism are the symbols of their loss ofpolitical faith.As Whiteman guides the poetry of the firstpart of the book, so Ezra Pound, that otherquitessential American, guides the prose.McClure assumes the voice of Pound theteacher, the Pound of Jefferson and/or Mus¬solini and A Guide to Kulchur for "Wolf-Trap", the long, mystical, middle section ofthe book. There is unintentional irony in theuse of Pound's voice throughout this section.Nothing could be further from Pound'shard headed rationalism than "Wolf-Trap's" nature mysticism masquerading asscience. The section is replete with termslike "billionic," "trillionic," and "Quintil-lionic,” and statements such as "All life is asingle unitary surge, a giant organism."This is the rhetoric of pseudo-science andMcClure is using the jargon of the biologicalsciences to compel assent to statemenswhich have nothing to do with science. In the19th Century Whitman confronted scientificdiscoveries in his poetry too. But whereWhitman is careful to distinguish his aimsand methods from those of the scientist,McClure blurs the distinction.McClure's political leanings suffer fromthe same type of blurring. AlthoughScratching the Beat Surface is sprinkledwith such catch phrases of radicalism as"undeclared military state," "war cul¬ture," and "oppressed," McClure is anything but radical. He, and the rest of the surviving Beats are essentially reactionary.McClure defines his own political stance indescribing Blake: "He was not a revolutionary, but a man in revolt." McClure too is aman in revolt without any real conception ofthe possibility of anything beyond individualrevolt.[he Universitynon s’Thursday, s/30 and Monday Tuesday, k/s £(yoodsyecd Hall, 5M5 S.

Still,you will want to be familiar with the place,for everybody spends at least one summerin Hyde Park, and Poplar Creek usually isthe only place to see your fave raves duringthe summer (except maybe for Wisconsin'sAlpine Valley). This summer, for example,Poplar Creek was home to Talking Heads,James Taylor, Crosby Stills and Nash, San¬tana, and all sorts of big time rockers — alsoWillie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, and Engle-bert. Poplar Creek has great sound, but isthe consummate suburban music palace;upon walking into the place for the first timeto see Bob Dylan last summer, my sisterturned to me and said "Uh oh, I think we'reat the K Mart." The main seats are coveredby an orange painted grillwork of ironbeams which looks like a landing site fromStar Wars. And there are lots of refresh¬ments stands, which means that people areconstantly walking in and out to get icecream, beer, soda, candy, etc. It's very dis¬orienting at first — like watching a hugegroup of teenagers who are themselveswatching a bigscreen TV episode on DonKirchner's Rock Concert. But again, thesound is good and it's one of the few placesto consistently book big name acts duringthe summer. So you either go and tune ot thesurroundings or you don't go because youknow you won't be able to tune out the sur¬roundings. It's interesting the first time, butat over twelve bucks per show, plus four forparking (you have to drive there, althoughthere is a bus that leaves from downtown,just like summer camp) I'll take a pass. Thewhole thing just proves that Woodstock Na¬tion was really just a large studio audiencefor a hip version of Hollywood Squares. Pop¬lar Creek is ultimately either ridiculous ordepressing, either of which response is nofun.Auditorium Theater: There aren't toomany rockshows here anymore, and thankGod for small favors. Located in the Roose¬velt University building (70 E. CongressPkwy. — State and Congress) the Auditori¬um is one of the few remaining architecturalwonders in Chicago. Designed by Louis L.Sullivan, and acoustically perfect, the hallseats about 3000 people in probably the mostbeautiful environment in Chicago. Woodfloors, plush seats, wall murals, small ceil¬ing lights — all of which were damaged to adegree when groups like Humble Pie used totread the sizeable Auditorium boards. Now,mostly ballet and classical performancesare scheduled — except for an occasional"safe” performer like Paul Simon or AllJarreau. But whoever is playing, you owe itto yourself to go to the Auditorium, for youwill probably not find another hall like it inthe United States in terms of quality andbeauty.Checkerboard Lounge: This bar is usually every U of C type's introduction to the bluesand the South Side around Hyde Park — notnecessarily in that order. This small and oldbar, part-owned by harp player JuniorWells, is located in a funky part of the ghetto, near 43rd and Cottage Grove. People usea car to get here. People at the Checker¬ board are receptive to students, and alwayshave been (the name shows it: Black andWhite mixing). But the realitiesof urban lifeis obvious — it's tough for Whites to go intothe ghetto, just as it's even tougher forBlacks to go into some of the all-Whiteneighborhoods of Chicago (Bridgeport, Ci¬ cero, etc.). Remember this and you'll saveyourself a lot of trouble. Don't go to proveyour urban funk and political sensibilities.Just go and listen to the blues, and that'senough.Wise Fools Pub: (2270 N. Lincoln) This isthe classic North Side blues bar — whichmeans that everybody in it will be white.This alone does not make it bad, for lots oftimes the Wise Fools will be the only place intown to hear people like Son Seals, for ex¬ample. But it is bad when the audiencebegins to think it's watching the BluesBrothers — which means they yell at all thewrong places and generally act stupid. Idon’t mean to be racist — there is a lot ofstupid behavior at the Black blues bars. Butthe point is that sometimes the music at theFools pub is overshadowed by North sidelife, which come to think of it is probably aproblem wherever you go on Clark and Lincoin Avenues. Another good place to go onthe North side is B.L.U.E.S., at 2519 N.Halsted, which features more local acts, butnow and then showcases someone fantasticlike Jimmy Dawkins. Kingston Mines (2548Halsted) also presents local acts; Biddy Mu-ligan's (7644 N. Sheridan) is way up on thefar North side, but also tends to bring peoplelike Albert King, so you may have to makethe trip north to see some of the greats inblues. But this is worth it, for after a fewmonths in Chicago, the home of modernblues, you'll realize just how lucky you areto have the chance.Cool Runnings: Located in the basementof Stages music club (3730 N. Clark), CoolRunnings is Chicago's only Reggae/Dubclub and it is great. Unlike the Wild HareSinging Armadillo Frog Sanctuary down thestreet (3530 N. Clark), Cool Runnings doesnot feature live reggae bands — it presentstop-ranking DJ's who jam the box (i.e. playrecords) until 4 a.m. with some of the mostdanceable, dub-wise tunes this side of Kingston (or Zion,’ for that matter). The WildHare gets too crowded and the bands are toooften the same — Cool Runnings (namedafter a hit Bunny Wailer tune) offers a largedance floor, a great sound system. RedStripe beer (the best Jamaican import), andpossibly the best inter-racial atmosphere inthe city. The place doesn't really get movinguntil after midnight, and some rude boysmay look strange skanking by themselves inthe corner, but that's alright — any time inthe week is fine to go and dub out, even ifyou're the ony people on the dance floor.Watch for ads in the Reader telling who isgoing to be DJ on which night, because notall of them are dubwise. But Cool Runningsis still a great place to go to drink, dance,and generally relax. Slowly, of course, sincereggae/dub allows your central nervoussystem to slow down about 99%. Listen forthe hit tune "Diseases," a great bouncy hitwith the Uvely chorus "Jah will lick you withdiseases." As l-Roy might say, "WAAAi. . .."—Jeffrey MakosTHE BETTER WAX EMPORIUMS AROUNDby Jeffrey MakosEvery record desire can be satisfied byvarious record stores in Chicago — you justhave to do some shopping. Like most bigcities, there are large stores and small spe¬cialty shops, and both serve their functions.The only necessary element is the desire togo to different stores, check their prices,compare their stock, and have a good timebrowsing.ROCK AND FUNK1) Rose Records (165 W. Madison — best;214 W. Wabash — not bad). Rose is one of thelargest record stores in Chicago, and almostall needs can be met here: rock, jazz, funk,classical, blues, imports. For rock, theprices are kind of high, but their import se¬lection yields many gems, and their upstairssection is a fabulous collection of cut outs.2) Rolling Stone Records (175 W. Washington). Rolling Stones in the classic rock re¬cord store. It's prices are fairly low, thestock is full, it's cut out selection large, it's jazz bins are full.. .and if you look carefully,you may find one or two bootlegs floatingthrough the bins. This store also features alarge group of marked down non-cut out cur¬rent hits, and is the place to find the latestrap records.3)Wax Trax (2449 N. Lincoln). If RollingStone Records is the classic rock store be¬cause of it's wide selection of standard rockhits, Wax Trax is the best rock store because of it's taste and it's selection of obscure imports and used singles. Wax Trax isthe closest thing to a New York collectorsrecord store in Chicago, and might be calleda "Punk/New Wave" store if those titlesweren't passe...But if you want the latestEcho and the Bunnymen (are they still to¬gether?) or rare Sex Pistols or various obscure bootlegs or the original edition ofBooker T's "Time Is Tight" single, or allsorts of other Eurorock and American souland rockabilly goodies, then this is theplace. (But be prepared: they tend to look down on rap, which is bizarre.) Plasteredwith posters in an imitation of early Britishpunk stores, Wax Trax has gone downhill oflate with the tacky addition of a "punk bou¬tique" in the back of the store. But if youwant old Roxy Music singles, or live Iggy, orvarious editions of Orchestral Manouvers,etc., then Wax Trax is the place.4)Second Hand Tunes (1701 E. 55th/2548N. Clark). These stores — plus Dr. Wax,about two blocks south of the Northside Second Hand Tunes — are the place to selland/or buy used records. Prices vary, but italways helps to make the rounds of thesestores, to find those hard to get classics thatyou've been looking for. Singles, as well asJazz and Soul and Blues records, are soldhere, and while It may take time, lookingthrough these bins can uncover a lot ofworthy finds. Just remember to check thequality of the record before you buy it —usually you get no chance to return yourpurchase. (Vintage Vinyl in Evanston is also a good store.)5) Spin It Records (1444 E. 57th). It's inHyde Park, so you won't be able to avoid it.Usually carries the latest hits and has alarge Jazz and Funk section, but watch theirbargain bins for various unseen in-Americarecords and various cut-outs that may notbe found elsewhere.6) The Phoenix (basement of ReynoldsClub). The cheapest prices in Hyde Park,and just beginning to keep a selection of singles (British and American). They also special order, and this can save a lot of time ifyou know something will not be found elsewhere in the city.JAZZ & BLUES1) Jazz Record Mart (11 W. Grand — best,4243 N. Lincoln — new). The owner may be ajerk at times, but this is probably the bestoverall store in Chicago to buy jazz, especially if you're looking for a wide selectionand an attitude towards jazz that is highlyContinued on page 25 4*THE GREY CITY JOURNAL-FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 1982-23MILK.

VernonrSMASHING DRAMA, AND CRASHING ITLast year, Remains Theater put on a production of Faustus in conjunction with the TripleAction Theater of England, a group which bases much of their acting methods on JerzyGrotowski's theories. Above, a stage drawing from Grotowski's own production.by Cate WileyDespite the lack of a theater departmentat the U of C (we do have an art department,but nobody knows where it is), there is a sur¬prising variety of ways for students to in¬volve and even immerse themselves in the¬ater. The most well-established and-proud-of it group is Blackfriars, which spe¬cializes in musical comedy. The organiza¬tion is funded by the University and is en¬tirely student run by a board of Abbot,Prior, Keeper of the Jewels, Scribe, andChancellor. Don't laugh at the archaic titles—■ Blackfriars dates back to the 1890's whenit was an all male club which could afford toimport producers from Hollywood. Womenwere only admitted after the second worldwar when there just weren't enough menaround who enjoyed dressing up.Joining Blackfriars is a good way of meet¬ing other students who think they are as ta¬lented as you, and despite the inevitable be¬hind the scenes politicking, they manage toput on two shows a year in Ida Noyes, Man-del Hall, or the Reynold's Club NewTheatre. I enthusiastically recommend see¬ing the "O'Show" on Student ActivitiesNight to get an idea of typical U of C let's-put-on-a show-a I most et the-last-m inutehumor. This is, lest you should ever dreamof forgetting, where Second City took root.(And we all know where Saturday NightLive took root.) And first-year students arealways welcome; I believe they made upabout half the cast of last year's originalmusical All's Fair, the story of a war be¬tween Harvard and the U of C. (Don't sigh,you're here now and you'll have to live withHarvard jokes until you leave.)A closing note on Blackfriars: if you evercare to sneak into the Pub jn the bowels ofIda Noyes Hall, the life sized photo of theGibson Girl is none other than a Blackfriarin drag.The Chancel Players at RockerfellerChapel usually cast a few students in theirsemi professional (which means they'regood but nobody gets paid) classical plays.Last year Everyman, Becket, and Titus An-dronicus were done and although nothing isscheduled for this fall, there will probablybe something this winter. Hyde Park alsoboasts a few dramatic groups that studentscan audition for, notably the Gilbert and Sul¬livan Society and the Jewish CommunityCenter (which does not do Fiddler on theRoof every other year).The only other place on campus wherestudents can produce and direct their ownplays is Court Studio, on the third floor of theReynold's Club. Yes, there is a little stageup there, fire-hazard though it may be. TheStudio has gone through a series of management crises over the past several years andis now fully back in the hands of CourtTheatre. Fledgling Chicago theater compa¬nies have used the space, as well as touringshows, but students are encouraged to submit proposals as well. (A word of caution:you must provide your own designers andtechnicians and runcrew, not always easy tofind.) Productions have ranged from the dean of the Tufts University Theater Department doing Oedipus with puppets to student-directed Shaw to video-adapted NeilSimon. Innovative theater is indeed possibleat the U of C, but don't expect a full house atthe Studio. Audiences of twenty tend to bethe rule rather than the exception.If you want to do technical work withsome of the most respected designers in thecity, Court Theatre is usually looking forvolunteers. (They have also have beenknown to cast students in main-stage prod¬uctions.) And of course, you can alwaysusher. Court's offices are on the third floorof the Reynold's Club; better to go there forinformation than to get in the way at the the¬ater itself, which is a separate building lo¬cated on Ellis Ave.Like all of the extracurricular activityhere, doing theater takes organization(something students are not and never havebeen noted for) and a time commitment. Ihave known a number of would-be directorswho have lost cast members to the pres¬sures of exams, papers, and the other trivialaspects of being a good student. But if youdo have an idea for a show of your own, justdo it. Nobody's going to invite you, but if youhave a plan and people to help you carry itout, somebody will probably let you do itsomewhere. Really, the only way to get inthe door of this particular party is by crash¬ing it.Contrary to coastal misconceptions, the city of Chicago is literally overflowing withgood theater. Granted, we have neitherTimes Square nor the West End, but it wouldbe well-nigh impossible to count the numberof small, fledgling or well-established the¬ater companies between the Loop and Evan¬ston. At least a dozen companies have beenlaunched in the past year and of those thatsurvived, at least half have moved into theirown quarters. Storefront theater is in ear¬nest here; you could go out every week ofthe year and not pay more than ten dollarsfor some of the best theater in the country.Some of what passes for professional the¬ater here is admittedly appalling and onewonders exactly what the word "professional" means, but it doesn't take long to findout that "theatre Goodman" is not the onlyanswer. The Goodman is a fine place to seeBig Names in the American Theater, buttheir classics are often-inferior to our ownCourt Theatre and to some of the older smalltheaters on the north side such as WisdomBridge, the Body Politic, North Light Repertory, and the Theatre Building.The best way to find out what's playingwhere is either the monthly Chicago magazine or the Reader. I recommend theReader, because while its calendar is lessexhaustive than Chicago's, it comes outonce a week and it's free. It also gives theaddresses and phone numbers of every theater in the city. If you are interested inBroadway musicals and Famous Actors,there's the Loop and the Arie Crown and Drury Lane at McCormick Place. The Schubert in the Loop is a favorite, an old buildingin the grand operatic style, but tickets areexpensive and student rush seats are notalways available. The same goes for theGoodman (next to the Art Institute on Michi¬gan Avenue), except that it has a studio adjacent to the mainstage which is cheaperand often a lot more interesting.Like most Chicago theater goers, over thepast few years I have nurtured a list of favorite theaters. A place where you can beassured of exceptional ensemble acting isSteppenwolf, recently moved into a newhome on Halsted Street near the Belmont Elstop. They have taken over a convertedwarehouse (an amazing number of theatersin this city used to be warehouses) vacatedby the demise of the St. Nicholas theater,launched in the mid-70's by playwrightDavid Mamet. While I'm sorry to see the St.Nick fold, it is encouraging that for everytheater which doesn't make it, two morespring up to take its place. Steppenwolf,however, is not likely to go dark for manyyears to come. The company members haveworked together for years and their performances demonstrate this rare quality of togetherness again and again. While theirchoice of material is not always appropriateto the relative youth of the cast (they did adisastrous Shaw a few years ago) their ver¬satility can only increase with experienceAnother ensemble group, both more innovative and less accessible than Steppenwolf,is the Remains Theatre, which usually performs at the Theatre Building on Belmont afew blocks west of the El stop. The membershave an artistic bent towards the unconventional and have been known to venture allthe way into the experimental. Some peopledon't approve of this sort of theater, but forthose who do Remains is the finest in Chi¬cago. Without having seen it, I will breakrules and recommend their version of MobyDick (opening the end of this month), put together from a series of workshops by England's experimental whiz-kid Steven Rumbelow. I spoke to a friend who participatedin one of the workshops, designed to teachthe actor to use both mind and body as a single creative instrument. "It was hypnot¬ic...he (Rumbelow) pushed us to a pointwhere we thought we'd drop and then he gotour bodies to keep going without us." Soundintriguing? Call the Theatre Building for information.Nearly all of the northside theaters usevolunteer ushers, so if you don't mind notsitting front row center, phone the theater ofyour choice and tell them you want to usherand see the show for free. Not a bad deal,since student discounts are becoming increasingly out Reaganed. And remember, itis not really a major expedition to get to thenorth side from Hyde Park. Ask the theaterwhich El stop they are closest to (many ofthem are near the Howard Line which youcan catch either in Hyde Park or in theLoop), take change for the bus and a book toread, and you're on your way.mmmMUSICContinued from page 23serious — in other words, if you don't thinkthat jazz began with Weather Report, this isyour store. Various rare imports show up inthe bins (Miles Davis's rare Panagea hasbeen reportedly seen) as well as a great selection of Blues records. Prices vary, andare usually too expensive when it comes toout of-print records that they have, butoverall this is one of the best stores in thecity, and one which respects the jazz tradition.2) Rolling Stone, Rose Records, Spin It,Phoenix: All these stores feature substan-cial jazz and blues selections, so the thing isto look for the best sales, and above allcheck out the bargain bins (which are limited at the Record Mart, in terms of quality) for choice items. Again, the Phoenix has thebest local prices, and alone must be creditedfor carrying Otis Rush's classic Cobra collection, Moaning the Blues (Record Marthas it as well).REGGAEThis is a tough one. All the major rockstores listed above carry reggae/dub re¬cords, but selection varies from store tostore and from week to week. For example,no store in recent memory has carried thegreatest dub record ever made, Vital Dub, adub on a Mighty Diamonds record. Also, lotsof classic dub is out of print, and can't befound once the first copies are sold — so it'sa weekly search for the dubwise recordbuyer. Rolling Stone Records, surprisinglyfor a rock oriented store, sometimes has thebest selection. But for overall quality, Con¬quering Lion Records is the best — if themost inaccessible to the average non carowing Hyde Parker. It’s located at 849 E.79th Street. If the Lion can’t get it, it justmight be out of reach completely. SALSASurprisingly, one of the best Latin Jazz selections is to be found upstairs at Rose Records, although La Voz de America (4628 N.Broadway) can usually meet the craving forLatin music, which is one of the finest obsessions known to humankind. Of course, sincemost latin bands record for small labels,usually in Nueva York, the records are hardto come by and not always in great shape.But for the standard classics — Puente, Palmieri, Barretto, etc. — Rose and La Voz arethe two best bets.CLASSICALHere, again, Rose Records has the widestselection, if sometimes the highest prices.The best move is to order from the Phoenixif you can stand the wait, because the pricesare so low. Another store is Laury's Discount Records, which has been selling moreRock, but still features a fine Classical selection (201 N. LaSalle in the Loop — Lakeand LaSalle).Various small collectors shops feature nothing but classical, but in this case its bestto consult the yellow pages, make a lot ofphone calls, and pray a lot. The currentstate of classical recordings — regardless ofthe digital hype — is getting worse andworse, as major companies are making itharder and harder to get rare records, not tomention good pressings of these records. Inany case, expect a wait on classical records,and try to order from the store with the bestselection — this will usually mean they careabout classical records as music and not asmere product.The rest is up to you. Various stores aroundthe city have different sales, different cutout bins, and some even have their own section of used records. Obviously, if you'relooking for a copy of the long out of printSoul Men album by Sam and Dave, going toonly one or two places just won't do. Repeated trips are a must — but when you think ofhow this will get you out of Hyde Park, thisis not such a bad thing after all. rTHE GREY CITY JOURNAL—FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 1982-25Doc films (The Documentary Film Group,Cobb 315; 962-8575 for upcoming schedule;962-8574, office) is — lest anyone forget —older than any other student-run film soci¬ety in America — a claim that rival's TheMaroon's (older than the University) andthe University's (older than history). ButDoc is no joke; these students work withsome success to provide plentiful, diverse,and cheap films for a large, diverse, and de¬manding audience. The group typicallymixes its successes and failures, thoughupon occasion one or the other takes clearpredominance (in my opinion, the former inAutumn 1980; the latter in Winer 1980). Butsince Doc shows more films than alt theother campus film groups put together, andsince we've all enjoyed and suffered morethan a few evenings at their expense, thesubject deserves elaboration.The central feature of the group's idea ofserious film is certainly the auteur theoryand, since the group's focus is undeniablyAmerican, especially the auteur theory ascodified by Andrew Sarris in The AmericanCinema (1968), a book those expecting topass more than a few quarters here mayprofitably consult. Briefly, the au-teur/Sarris/Doc view of film tends to em¬phasize a film's formal and stylistic aspectsas an expression of its director's 'vision'.This should not, in theory, privilege form atthe expense of content, since the two aresaid to be inextricably mixed; but in prac¬tice it does, though just how is another mat¬ter altogether. Still, auteurism is credible atDoc, where one encounters a reverential attitude toward the films and the tradition thetheory upholds, however these may be construed by any individual member or thegroup as a whole. I do not mean to suggestthat the theory is without considerablevalue, the films without interest, or the attitude wrong. But it should be clear that theDoc view is one particular manifestation offilm interest among the many which arepossible.The grey city will again attempt to reviewcampus film on a weekly basis, so l will notbore you with my version of this quarter'sattractions, instead, 1 offer some observa¬tions independent of the particular shadowson the wall. Doc is a student-run organization, which means, as it does in all thosewith which I've been associated, that organ¬izational demands are often at odds withsleep, studying, eating, etc. Despite therewards of working in the group (most ob¬viously, seeing films for free), a lot of workcomes down on a few. These people become‘the few at the top' and they do not simply'run' the group; they also do most of thework. That they in particular and the groupas a whole are overworked leads to smallfuck-ups (250 people at the door; one personto sell and take tickets). That they are 'few'leads to big fuck-ups (entire series ill- orunplanned). To complicate matters, the au¬dience responds in a predictable fashion: itderides Doc privately if not pubically forstarting late, tasteless stage announcements, poor reel changes. This has the ef¬fect of further distancing the 'few at thetop'.This relationship is to the benefit of noone; it is also self-perpetuating. Changing itinvolves recognising the obvious fact thatalthough Doc continues to find the films ofAmerican Hollywood directors of primaryinterest, Doc must in addition show foreign,experimental, and expressly political films,or few will be shown. Such has not alwaysbeen the case. In the mid seventies Doc'competed' with Contemporary EuropeanFilms (CEF) and, to a lesser extent, newAmerican Movement films (NAM) until theformer folded ("Too few finally remainedwho were willing to devote their nearly full¬time to the burden." — former CEF direc¬tors) and the latter was forced to submit toDoc subsidy, and was subsequentlydropped. The situation has in a sense im¬proved, since Doc alone now shows morefilms than were formerly shown by the threegroups combined, a change one attributes tothe combination of Doc's virtual monopoly on weekend money-makers, their smartprogramming of these, and an increase inthe film-going audience. But as long as weagree that more alone does not equal better,one may not safely conclude that Doc in itspresent configuration meets all of its in¬herited obligations.The solution should be evident to ail, as itwas to a former Doc member and grey citywriter: "There is no reason why the diverseinterests of films and filmmakers shouldn'tbe reflected by a diversity in the interests ofthe groups that show them. As it is, there isa deplorable tendency on the part of Doc toobscure the individual merits of a PareLorentz documentary, a structuralist filmby Straub, and Borzage melodrama bythrowing them cheek by jowl together." Theway to accomplish this is NOT to split Docup from 'above' or break its monopoly onthe weekend money-makers; it is perfectlyclear that the audience benefits in two waysfrom Doc's weekend programming: first be¬cause we can expect to see just about any ofthe better recent releases at modest cost ifwe wait long enough, and second because ofthe series Doc is consequently able to under¬write on the weekdays. The audience can inno way benefit from competition for money,unless the socialists among us are eager tosee CEF's demise repeated as farce. If any¬thing, Doc's monopoly should be increased:the Summer on the Quads series should besupporting film, not the Student ActivitiesOffice, especially since Doc people do thework anyway.Instead, there needs to develop, withinDoc, a new group of individuals committedto organizing a thoughtful and (to them atleast) desirable program of film. If the Doccore had less to do it would do it better; andif someone else had a crack at the weekendmoney (i.e., power) chances are good thatthey would use it as well as it is now beingused, if differently. As the example of theRenaissance Society's involvement withDoc shows, the time is right for this to hap¬pen.This idea can only go so far, of course,since there is exactly one very real, materi¬al problem inherent in the present U of Cstudent-run film endeavor: Quantrell Audi¬torium. After 'Life of the Mind' and ivy, 'AirConditioned' Quantrell is the University'sthird best joke. Hardly Doc's problemalone; if we start asking now we may get areal, first-class film theater before the endof the century.•Law School Films (LSF; 1111 E. 60th) showsan all star line up of big-budget Hollywoodfilms from the thirties, forties, and fifties,along with an occasional recent release.These are "comfortable classics" and theirscheduling is "repetitive" from year toyear, to quote writers in this space in thelast two years. Let us try to understand whythis is the case.Both Doc and Law School prefer works dfthe American cinema, but their interestsdiffer. Doc emphasizes direction, the direc¬tor's vision (or visual style), and cinemato¬graphy. In contrast, Law School gives rela¬tively more weight to scripting, acting,stars, and music. Since the groups like andshow many of the same films this differencecannot be noted by reference to any particu¬lar film; series differences alone express it.It is absolute in none of the film attributesmentioned; I claim only that the two groupsattend primarily to different things.Unlike Doc's, the Law School's is not an'idea' of film — more like a 'notion'. Were itthe former, the group would not continue, asit does, to show many of the same films yearafter year: they would look for additionalmaterial upon which to practice their under¬standing. Thus the distinction between Docand Law School is not only one of characterbut also and more importantly one of kind:Doc sees film as film, that is to say, as akind of art; Law School sees film as diver¬sion, entertainment.Again, I do not mean to suggest either thatthis does not also happen at Doc, or that en¬tertainment is an inconsequential part of the medium; any understanding of film that ne¬glects its popular appeal is surely lacking.But Law School is no more interested in filmas mass medium than it is interested in filmas script and acting, per se. Instead, thegroup enjoys this sort of film because itenjoys being told what these films tell, overand over again, without change. This obser¬vation merely reaffirms that "Cinema isone of the languages through which theworld communicates itself to itself" (Comolli and Narboni, "Cinema/ldeoology/Criticism (1)", Screen v. 12 n 1). Further ev¬idence that Law School's interest is moreideological than educational or critical:their blurbs. The group loves to quote criticsin support of their programming; Sarris,Pauline Kael, James Agee are favorites;writers at Doc and the grey city are not ex¬empt. This is neither laziness nor a simpleploy to increase receipts. Rather, it expresses indirectly a fear on the group's partthat the worldview it presents in film willfall into disfavor, will cease to reign, will beforgotten. 'See, everybody agrees that theseare great films, even our competition oncampus' they seem to say; 'attend and youtoo will see the justice of our way.' This inspite of the fact that the films are not thereal issue.The films individually are great; whetheror not the schedule as a whole is equally so isdebatable and is best left up to the audi¬ence.•As The Maroon once asked at year's end: Isthere anybody I haven't offended? Yes, andwe can assert nothing unkind of them. TheRenaissance Society (Cobb 418; 962-8670)has presented valuable series of avant-garde and foreign films for several years;their present contribution, in conjunctionwith Doc: the films of Robert Bresson, onThursdays. One wishes the Society contin¬ued success. International House TalkingPictures (1414 E. 59th; program director,753-2274) generally starts late but managesto show several worthwhile foreign films'per quarter; films by Godard, Herzog, andBunuel are typical and awaited. Finally, oneor two films are generally shown by theMen's Crew and Chamberlain House. Theformer exhibits good taste. The latter israther dull, though a spontaneous gatheringoutside has been known to provide the ex¬citement those inside so dearly lack. Signsand cameras are welcome additions.•The Hyde Park Theater (5238 Harper;667-3939) has been compared in this space totheaters in Times Square in New York; itsprojection ("inept"), facilities ("sticky"floors, "everlasting house lights", "occa¬sional rats"), and audience ("screamingbabies", "snoring drunks") have beencited. But this proves only that the HydePark is no Water Tower Place. Previouswriters exaggerate its shortcomings; and,though one of them hints at it, all neglect tostate outright the fact that this theater's au¬dience is predominantly black. Tact, rac¬ism, or both?The Hyde Park currently shows big- andlow-budget American films in their secondrun, with an occasional first-run film, whichchange weekly. The opportunity to seehyped-up and lousy films and decent recentones in 35mm at moderate cost has beenwelcome. But this is not the Hyde Park at itsbest. Imagine a double bill of The BuddyHolly Story and The China Syndrome. Next,several well-timed comments from the audi¬ence giving the lie to Gary Busey and JaneFonda, fine white people that they are. HadI seen these films elsewhere I would havethought more of the films and less of the ex¬perience, I'm glad I didn't.Advice: attend the Hyde Park on week-nights, wear jeans, and change seats if youdon't like your neighbors.Art, revival, and fore*n films in 16mm maybe seen at three not for profit city theaters.The closest, best-funded, and most comfort¬able of these is the Film Center of the Schoolof the Art Institute of Chicago (Columbusand Jackson; 443-3737). The Film Centertakes a self-conciously artistic approach tothe medium; its bias is toward foreign(often, third world) works, though American films are shown with regularity. Filmsfrom the Art Institute's collection are shownfree of charge on Tuesdays at 9 AM. Regularprogramming is series-oriented, involvesearly evening shows of intelligently-scheduled films, and is changed frequently. Cost is modest; print quality and projection,good to excellent.Chicago Filmmakers (6 West Hubbard;329-0854) shows independent, political,foreign, avant garde, animated, and localfilms. Programming is adventurous and,since many of the films are shorts, is oftendesigned around one-evening themes. Costis moderate; print quality and projection,good; seating and projection facilities,spare.Facets Multimedia (1517 West Fullerton;281-4114) shows old and, increasingly, newfeature-length foreign and American filmsfor extended engagements in two screeningrooms. Film selection is in general good,though not as good as in the past. Cost ismodest; print quality, fair; projection,good; facilities (seats, screen, sound), poorto fair.•The Parkway (2736 North Clark; 929-9555),and its associated theater The Varisty inEvanston, are the area's only 35mm revivaltheaters. The Parkway shows anything and,eventually, everything that has ever beenpopular: American, foreign, old, new, bigbudget, cult. Double bills are changed daily.Cost is moderate, considering that this is afor-profit venture; print quality varies;seating, cramped.•First-run foreign films show in three the¬aters. The Sandburg (1204 North Dearborn;944-4430) and The Biograph (2433 North Lin¬coln; 348-4123) present those with the betteradvance press and extend engagements likeany other first-run theater. Both performwell in all regards, though the seat¬ing/screen arrangement is superior at theSandburg. Cost is substantial. The ThreePenny (2424 North Lincoln; 281-7200) showsa preponderance of less well-known foreignfilms in their first run, which change week¬ly. Facilities are decent; cost, a bit less thanthe Sandburg and Biograph.First-run American fiTms show in many theaters. Those in the Loop have the reputationof seediness though the mention of this isfrequently a stand-in for a criticism of theaudience, which is predominanteiy black.These — among them, The State-Lake, TheChicago, and The United Artists — are rightfor some films. Near Northside theaters —among them, McClurg Court, The Carnegie,and The Esquire — generally please in mostevery regard, for which privilege one mustpay.Film information is Abundant. For campusshowings, print media includes the groups'publicity (Doc: quarterly brochure, one-sheet listing, and posters; LSF: one-sheetwith capsule reviews and posters; Renais¬sance Society, International House, andothers, posters). Listings in The ChicagoChronicle are available every other weekand are presumably less subject to typo¬graphical and other errors than those in thestudent-run papers. These conspire to pro¬vide capsule reviews, the grey city for filmsshown Fridays through Mondays; TheMaroon for those shown Tuesdays throughThursdays. On the phone: 962-8757 carriesDoc's recorded program information;753-2150 reaches the Student Activities Hot¬line.The Reader is the best single source offilm information. It is published weekly, isdistributed on Thursday afternoons at sev¬eral well-known campus locations, is free,contains capsule reviews of all but the mostirregular showings, and includes a list oftheater addresses and telephone numbers.The Hyde Park Theater advertises in TheHyde Park Herald, which may be inspectedat the University bookstore. The FilmCenter and Facets publish their schedules,the former every other month in a one-sheetwith capsule reviews, the latter montly in abrochure. These are available for a periodof time following their publication atO'Gara's or Powells bookstores, Spin It, orthe Medici, all a short walk on 57th to theeast. Chicago Filmmakers, in addition toseries posters, provides an entertaining re¬corded message ("...and yes, this is an artfilm.") at 329-0854. Revival and first runtheaters advertise in The Sun-Times andTribune, in addition to their respective re¬corded messages; the Parkway/Varsityventure also publishes an ugly and informa¬tive poster, generally as an insert to TheReader.—David Miller26—FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 1982—THE GREY CITY JOURNALCOMPLETEAUTO LICENSEandTITLE SERVICEOther Services• Checks Cashed(including personal checks)• Money orders, utility bills,CTA tokens, food stamps• Notary, instant trafficbail bond cards6311 Cottage GroveCURRENCY EXCHANGE6311 S.

IV SANYO t OI OR Til IV ISIONS30— FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 1982—THE GREY CITY JOURNALI WAS A TEENAGE HETEROSEXUALby Richard Maternus"Only those who change remain related tome." I scratched this line from Nietzsche's"Aftersong" on my apartment wall. Al¬though the white plaster is drably monoto¬nous and seems at times like a prison cell, aconcrete tunnel, or a basement john (fittingonly when adorned with colorful inscrip¬tions), I don't have a penchant for decorat¬ing my walls with graffiti. What circum¬stances motivated me to perform thissingular action — for this quote alone taintsmy otherwise desolate walls — I cannot recall. I only remember that I was desperate¬ly lonesome and hopefully trying to cele¬brate, or rationalize, an aspect of mycomplex personality — my impressionablenature — which, while at a younger ageseemed in harmony within a secure andstable self, now rose before me, during mo¬ments of contemplation, magnified and ka-leidoscoped into such intense images andobjects that I was no longer able to acceptreality as easily as I once had. And as if of¬fering myself in propitiation to a monstrousdeity, I inscribed that line upon my wall inblood.It is no small coincidence that on that ma¬niacal evening when, using a finger for mypen and the wall for my scroll, I concretizedmy fate as-a wandering and ambiguous soul,I also witnessed a ritual from my past, onethat I had relished and adorned with my en¬thusiasm. Directly beneath my apartmentwindow, in front of a renowned take-outchicken establishment, were twenty-fivemale college students. They wore dull greentrash bags where you and I would wear acoat, and responded to every insult, query,and bitter diatribe with a resounding "It'snone of your affair, sir!" They pronouncedtheir laconic rebuttal irregardless ofgender, race, or creed. It was a quintessen-tially democratic stance from a rather ar¬cane organization — a group of neophytesfrom a local fraternity. One of the street'sindigenous comics, once he had learned theroutine, approached the young man as if ap¬proaching a straight man. All he needed todo was pose the appropriate questions. EvenI, above the scene in my tainted garret,could not restrain the delight and laughterupon hearing the dialogue: "Who do yourepresent?" — "It's none of your affair,sir!" "What do you believe in?" — "It'snone of your affair, sir!" The crowd thathad gathered, arrested by the performance,jeered with delight.The binding, momentary glances castamongst disheveled members restless withhumiliation awakened within me uncom¬fortable memories. Like them, I was oncedriven by the promise of eternal and mortalbrotherly love, a form of companionshipnurtured on the playing fields of one's youthand consummated in the universities, thecorporations, the local bars, or the battlefields. When I was amongst them I wasknown as "Snake," a real fighter on thecourt and quite a charmer with the ladies. Ijoined a fraternity when I was a freshman, agood student looking forward to law schooland sure to start on next year's varsity bas¬ketball team. I was an excellent prospectand I gave them more than was required ininnocence and zeal on the night of my initia¬tion.I would have punched Pig Jackson squarein the face if I had had the chance. Pig wasthe mean and wrinkled fraternity alumnuswho would ask us the toughest and mosttrivial questions during our trial, like "Howmany bricks are there in the fireplace?" or"Who was the secretary of Tau Rho Upsilonin 1955?" He would definitely make us singall the fraternity songs, ^pd might even pissin our hair. When it was my turn (blindfold¬ed and kneeling before my judges) I heardan old man's raspy voice cry out: "O.K. neo¬phyte M , I have a theoretical questionfor you. Imagine yourself on an airplanewhich is going to crash. Your girl friend issitting to your left and a fraternity brotherto your right, and you're holding the onlyparachute. What would you do?" I knewthat it was Pig Jackson: no one else wouldask such a question. I didn't hesitate. "Sir, I would immeidately give the parachute tomy fraternity brother and then fuck thepants off the girl till my blazing death!"They all howled with laughter. I thoughtfor sure that l was in. But then the votecame, and amidst all the approving"Yeahs" there came a single "No." I wasout. All it took was one dissenting vote(Pig's) to transform a young man’s promiseof kinship into the forlorn shackles of ban¬ishment. I clenched my fist and lungedtoward that voice, lunged toward negation.But someone grabbed my arm and I wasdragged out of the court. They all surround¬ed me and gave me the secret handshake. Iwas in. It was all a hoax they told me. Therenever was a Pig Jackson, he was merely acreation of the fraternity's collective imagi¬nation, a rumor, and imitation of life,I left the fraternity within a year, aban¬doned friendships and the corporeal boundsof the straight male society. Because I wasunable (unwilling) to accept the conventionsof the fraternity, the gymnasium, and final¬ly the university, and thus failed to executethe appropriate contracts, I felt bereft of acommon social agreement. But with thisalienation there emerged a knowledge bornof experience. I began to decipher and intuitthe stupid simplicity of our society's sexualdefinitions: the rigidity, bigotry, and totali¬tarianism beneath the guises of freedom,entertainment, and comfortable living. Isought the alternatives (at times, perhaps,too self-consciously), sleeping with men andsuffering with women. Once a "man" whodreamt with horror that he is really a sub¬man, I was not a "sub-man" who dreamtwith hatred that he may still be a realman.Every man in this capitalist mega-state(America) is exploited daily for his skills,knowledge, cooperation, his capital and hislabor. Of course, these encounters are ame¬ liorated within the bounds of friendships —but not completely. All the romantic in¬trigue and consummation which exists between men and women are reproduced inmale relationships which exclude women.Every man — the wealthy corporate head,the priest, the politician, the distinguishedscholar, the common family man and thesportsman — finds himself one day, againsthis conditioned will power, infatuated withmembers of his own sex — the other man. Itdoesn't matter if it is consummated. The in¬trigue remains, and it is exercised most vio¬lently on the psychological level. It took a ritual of hallucinatory and phys-chological violence to forever impress uponmy imagination the truly tragic aspects ofthis (physically, ideologically, and spiritual¬ly) male-dominated society. One night,after ingesting Yage (a hallucinatory nar¬cotic), I saw that hell was not a place but agender incomplete. Standing in mybathroom for nearly half an hour, I watchedthe tiles reverberate with lurid femaleimages. Figures with long, sinewy tightsand heads as large as pins danced like mu¬tant strippers. I extended my hand — assoftly as one breathes on a sleeping lover'sneck I touched them, but suddenly theywere transformed: old women and childrenclutched their now bulbous heads, and Iheard laughter enduring until it became apiercing scream.This intensely morbid vision was partlyengendered by my confused sexuality andits social implications. Sexually and emo¬tionally penetrated by men for the first timein my life, the power structure which I hadenjoyed since adolescence as God-given andsocially sanctioneo was slowly deteriorating. Gradually my mind had entered an am¬biguous circle, an infinitely rapid rotationwhich merged the poles of male and female,just as, when a multi-colored disk is spunquickly enough, the colors of the rainbow in¬terpenetrate and produce white. I was ableto accept more easily my physical desiresthan l was my emotional responses, emotions commonly attributed to women (i.e.the "weak"), vulnerability and passivity.Leaving a male lover, I left confused, uncertain, unmanly. I denied to myself that I washomosexual, or even (that more fashionabletag) bisexual. I thought myself a crippled,guilty hetrosexual. And I remembered thatthroughout hallucination I was obsessedwith the notion of Jesus.There exists, of course, a healthier ex¬pression of homosexual experiences and the(personal/political) process of redefiningone's sexuality. I have heard it expressed byfriends and lovers who believe that happiness is a serious need, a need as final, as inevitable, to the support of human life assleep. I have heard it expressed by writers,scholars, and filmmakers who believe thatknowledge can lead an individual not only toa clearer understanding of one's culture, butalso to personal salvation.But knowledge comes from experienceand books can only help to understand experience. Ironically, perhaps, it was not until Ire-experienced monogamy with a brilliantfemale lover that I began to fully accept mysexuality as wonderfully diverse, confidently bisexual. This says a lot about that particular individual. But it likewise speaks of therewards of consciously reversing, and playfully toying with, the conventions of hetrosexual sex. German filmmaker Frank Ripploh once said with uninhibited celebrationthat "every man has an asshole and heshould use it more creatively than merely asa seat." Finally, through my experiences, Itoo could understand and share in that celebration of superabounding joy in the finitelyphysical.All of us inevitably undertake the processof losing innocence. And there comes a time,no longer adrift, when we glimpse at thechance to consciously complete the cycle,thus completing personality. It is a time foradjusting the working relationship betweenthe present and the past; a time for unlearning, and disentangling ourselves from thecultural givens too often (and tragically)perceived as natural. My sexual experi¬ences and my exploration into the feminineaspect of my personality were not very unu¬sually, born partly out of desire, partly outof curiousity. At times, I have been confused, helpless, and unstable because mycareer has recently consisted primarily inthe unique and in the present. Ours is an ageof containment; we huddle together andshore up defenses; our cultural habits andpoltical regimentation, our public conductand modes of expression, suggest that exposure to experience is certain to be fatal. Butwe must be willing to risk it if we are toescape our common and personal rigidity.THE GREY CITY JOURNAL—F RI DAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 1982—31*sSi^'Saturday 1i:MJ4M
