Morgenthau,UC professor political science.Speaking on "The Crisis in Amer¬ican Foreign Policy” at BillingsHospital Wednesday afternoon,Morgenthau remarked that the lo¬cation of his lecture was appropri¬ate because United States foreignpolicy in Southeast Asia cannot beexplained in rational or objectiveterms but must be viewed as a‘‘case of abnormal personal psy¬chology.”MORGENTHAU ASSERTED thatthe models for our foreign policywere established after World War11 and have since been interpretedas universal dogmas and generalprinciples, and applied to situationsthey do not fit.Chinese ExpansionChinese expansion, according toMorgenthau, is not marked by themovement of troops across bor¬ders. Rather China has offered apolitical and psychological threat toher neighbors which relies not somuch on arms as on the "attrac¬tiveness and superiority of Chinesecivilization.” He maintained thatmilitary containment works onlyagainst a military threat and is ir¬relevant against the more subtleand prudent expansion of China.In addition, he pointed out thatthere are no strong Asian countriesto cooperate with. They are all ei¬ther ‘‘young and unviable or oldand weak.” AssertsChina’s expansion is peculiar inthat she does not try to destroy hervictims, Morgenthau said. Rathershe connives to make them indi-1rectly dependent. She has actedwith “extreme caution and pru¬dence” compared with her arro¬gant public statements. Morgen¬thau claimed, too, that China’s [aims of conquest are not purely jCommunist, but reflect Chinese na¬tionalism. Mao’s goals, Taiwan andthe offshore islands, Tibet, and theIndian border, were formerly pur¬sued by Chiang Kai Shek, Morgen¬thau said.HE EXPLAINED the contrast!between China's extremist threats jand her actual moderate behaviornot as proof of her virtue but mere¬ly as an indication that she is cau- jtious because she is weak.The U.S. views aggression, Mor-gentbau asserted, as the use offorce by any country in pursuit ofgoals that we do not agree with. Hepointed out that virtually all gov¬ernments “use force in differentways When they can to get whatthey want,” and that one nation jcannot claim to be the only inter¬preter of the good and the just.“We confuse our own interests with ithe objective truth.” This confusionis not only intellectually erroneous jand morally wrong, he said, but jdangerous too because it disallowscompromise.Morgenthau noted with concernthe propensity of the Johnson ad¬ministration to "equate dissentwith treason.” He charged that formonths he has watched the growthof a new kind of McCarthyism in¬volving the harrassmemt of individ¬ual dissenters.Big Government Reduces Individual Role,Charges Massachusetts Atty. Generalby Michael HaigMassachusetts Attorney Gen¬eral Elliot Richardson, attack¬ed the bigness of Americangovernment and the loss of aplace for the individual, in theannual Musser Lecture Wednesdaynight at the Law School.RICHARDSON declared, "Thegovernment will have failed whenit fails in its responsibilities to thelittle people. The democratic socie¬ty must be governed from the bot¬tom up rather than from the topdown.”He asserted that the "challengeof the human condition” is to cre¬ate an environment for man that is jphysically safe, aesthetically pleas¬ing, provides the maximum devel- jopement of human capacities, al¬lows man dignity in his actions, jand provides a maximum role forthe individual in the first four.The role of the individual has dis- jappeared said Richardson, asAmerica has evolved into a “mass,society” and as urbanization and |technological developement haspushed toward bigger government. j vidual in criminal due process. He ;foresaw similar legislation guaran-| teeing the individual a role in gov¬ernment prbgrams such as neigh¬borhood education and the poor arole in the poverty program. Suchlegislation would “seek to involve ;people in a role of significant par-!tic ipa Lion.”Richardson sees the lawyer, the ■! law enforcement officer, and theneighborhood councilor as provid-1ing an essential bridge between the jindividual and the mass agency.In outlining solutions, Richardson jemphasized “for one thing, we,can’t go back. We can’t have a so- jlution like GolcLwater’s where we iall go off to our own little Marlborocountries.”EYE EXAMINATIONFASHION EYEWEARCONTACT LENSESDR.

Mann of Hyde Park.“Till now the state of Illinois hasbeen little more than a conduitthrough which federal funds haveflowed,” Mann said in a Maroon!interview last Saturday. “Asidejfrom public housing, which is 95per cent financed by the federal jgovernment, the state has no pro¬grams to meet the housing needs of jthe poor.”MANN is chairman of the Legis-1lative Commission on Low Income iHousing that recently completed atwo year study of housing condi-,tions of the poor.

He con-| tended that such legislation “woulddrive students to the underworld”by making criminals out of thoseWho merely used it and were notselling it.Mann s<aid that he is supporting abill to establish a commission tolook into the drug problem and re-i port back to the next session of the! legislature.IN ANOTHER area, Mann ha*,j introduced a bill to establish a sixj year moratorium on the death pen-; aRy in Illinois. “I have been askedhow I can support the abolition ofthe death penalty after the Speckcontroversy,” he said. “I see thatcase of proof of my position, .sinceit diid not act as a deterrent.

It would setpolicy on some matters which mostdirectly affect students, though theparticular areas were reportedlynot specified. On other matters, itwould have an advisory role.THIS STUDENT affairs commit¬tee, the Page committee is said tourge, could pass on suggestionsfrom students or student groups,and present proposals to the mostappropriate councils or officers ofthe University.The Page report also recom¬mended that students should bemembers of committees, both pres¬ent and future, which look intosuch problems as student housingand facilities.Other committees which dealwith the University’s relations withvarious segments of the communi¬ty, such as the neighborhood, orthe federal government, should atleast consult with students and tryto involve students on a continuingbasis, the report suggests.Range of InvolvementIn discussing student involvementin academic policies, the Pagecommittee reportedly presented arange of possible means by whichstudents can participate, leaving itup to each department to choosethe most appropriate way. Thesuggestions reportedly range frommeetings of groups of students w ithindividual faculty members, up toelection of student representativesto sit in faculty meetings in eachdepartment, or on various ap¬propriate committees of the depart¬ment.A number of suggestions forways of encouraging closer infor¬mal faculty-student relations werealso suggested. These includedmore lounges which could act as meeting places, renewed supportfor small student-faculty dinners,and all-university dinners in Hutch-ingson Commons.Blum: Report 'Inadequate'Commenting on the Page com¬mittee’s report, SG president JeffBlum said, “The report is basicallyinadequate. It approaches adequa¬cy only in a section on full open¬ness of decision making.”Blum said that the faculty mem¬bers on the committee could notsee the validity of his concept ofstudents as equals of faculty in dis¬cussions of all aspects of the Uni¬versity, including academic policymatters. “The two groups had fun¬damentally different conceptions ofthe University,” he said.Although he was pessimisticabout the possibilities of studentparticipation in academic matters,he said the faculty members on thecommittee appeared willing to ac¬cept more student involvement insetting non-academic policies.JERRY HYMAN also expresseddisappointment at faculty resis¬tance to full student involvement inacademic decisions, but felt that; “in the long run, say the next fiveto ten years,” some of the moreradical proposals of the studentsmight be put into effect.Hyman noted that, at a meetingof the seven-member Committee ofthe Council of the Senate last weekat which the Page committee’s rec¬ommendations were discussedmost of the questions to Page in¬volved details of the recommenda¬tion for the student affairs commit¬tee.Members of the Committee of theCouncil did not seem to be interest¬ed in discussing the full implica¬tions of the Page report’s recom¬mendation of full openness in deci¬sions which, Hyman said, would in¬volve disclosure of all tentative pol¬icy decisions, on everything fromcriteria for tenure to developmentof new academic programs.SUMMERLANGUAGEINSTITUTEFRENCHGERMANRUSSIANSPANISHUniversity of CaliforniaSANTA CRUZJune 26 — September 1, 1967Living-learning language pro¬grams for beginning students.Intensive ten-week summer ses¬sions in-residence at Cowell Col¬lege, UCSC - Audio-lingual meth¬od - Native-speaker informants- 15 units University credit -Application deadline: May 1 -Cost: $580, all-inclusive.For further information, please write:Mr. George M.

AikenThe Page ReportREVOLUTIONS ARE NOT made by committees.That seems to be the lesson of the Page Committee report onstudent-faculty relations, the substance of which was communi- jcated to us this week.Appointed last May, just after the administration buildingsit-in, the “student-faculty committee on student-faculty rela¬tions,” as it is officially named, met frequently since last fall.Its charge was to study the problems of communications be¬tween students and faculty. The most pertinent aspect of “stu¬dent-faculty relations” of course, is the role of students in theformulations of policies which are under the jurisdiction offaculty bodies.From what we know of the Page report (which has not beenofficially released to anyone except the President and Provost),it does not go too far in making specific, concrete proposals forstudent participation in the actual decision-making process. Itdoes recommend a student-faculty committee on student af¬fairs, which could make the final policy on some matters, butthe scope of this committee's authority is necessarily left com¬pletely unspecified in the report, and it would presumably berather limited. The long-range goal, as we see it, wocld still befor students and faculty to set final policy on all extra-curricclar matters, with the Dean of Students relegated to thetask of carrying out such a student-faculty committee’s man¬date.THE PAGE COMMITTEE also listed several ways in whichstudents could enter into discussions of academic policies with¬in each department and school.On the other hand, there were considerations of the atti¬tudes of many faculty members, who wished students would“stay in their place,” so to speak.In this context, the Page Committee held numerous long, jnecessarily a compromise between widely divergent view-hard discussions. As in all such situations, the final result is;points. That is taken for granted. The question is whether the'compromise retains any semblance of meaning, whether the >recommendations will really change anything.From the indications we have, the possible changes that may;be brought about under the recommendations of the Page |Committee would be limited, but nevertheless real.PERHAPS THE MOST important change would be one ofattitude rather than a substantive alteration in the pattern ofdecision-making. This is the change that would result if thecommittee’s recommendation that all important policy deci¬sions should be made only after full consultation with all inter¬ested parties, including students, is everywhere accepted. Re¬grettably, they felt they could not specify any single best wayto involve students.Essentially, the Page report is a compromise which has man- jaged to contain some proposals for real changes. It does notcompletely satisfy our desires for really meaningful participa¬tion by students in discussing and forming policies related toacademic affairs and extracurricular activities. It will probablynot appeal to all those who oppose any change.It does however stand a chance of acceptance by the facultyas a whole. We hope it will be readily adopted and speedilyimplemented by the faculty council. This will be a step in theright direction.The OtherThe Other is dead. Perhaps it will be resurrected next year,perhaps not. A brief obituary seems to be appropriate.They were not the best paper the campus will ever have—and they knew it. It was understandable. They lacked the man¬power and the resources to do professional reporting, like anypaper just beginning to make a go of it. Too often, especially intheir earliest days, the Other would consist of public relations .press releases, usually not even editted.FOR ALL THAT, they did the campus good. They managed !to affect a tongue-in-cheek style which kept all of us fromtaking ourselves too seriously. Towards the end of its life, theOther found its true metier—feature articles. The near-weeklycolumn on popular music and the fine story on campus book¬store owners touched on aspects of campus life which the Ma¬roon has neglected.And, in a general way, it was a fine thing just to haveanother voice on campus, one with different interests and opi¬nions. We are sincerely sorry to hear of the Other’s demise,and we wish its staff luck in engineering a come-back. rM The UC Faculty Couldllg^u Use A Little Psyching OutSeveral events of the past fewweeks suggest that perhaps it’sabout time somebody tried topsyche out the faculty aroundhere.One indication that there issomething that needs studying isthe reaction to the disclosure by ahistory instructor of a documentwhich' allegedly suggested unfairtreatment of an applicant for ad¬mission to the College by thepresent director of admissions.For reasons of their own, thisinstructor’s colleagues turnedagainst him. put pressure on thepresent chairman, of the Collegehistory group to rescind the ap¬pointment of the man as his suc¬cessor, and managed to makethings so unpleasant for him thathe is reportedly likely to seek em¬ployment elsewhere, even thoughhe is not likely to be fired.A SECOND event which hascaused concern among severalstudents was a recent incident inwhich several faculty memberson an admissions committee of agraduate department reportedlystrongly objected to proposed fel¬lowship aid for some applicantswhose only sin was that they hadtaken part in SDS activities dur¬ing their undergraduate days. Re¬portedly, there was no question ofthese applicants’ academic abili¬ties, only of their activist tenden¬cies.Happily, it can be reported thatthose who raised such objectionswere in the minority, and the ap¬plicants were accepted and of¬fered fellowships. It took a spirit¬ed defense of their right to en¬ gage in such activity by a moreenlightened member of the com¬mittee to block the efforts of theprotesting professors, however.FINALLY, a number of people,both students and some (relative¬ly enlightened) faculty members,are anxious about what receptionthe Page committee's report willreceive from some of the “cur¬mudgeons’’ spotted here andthere in the corners of various de¬partments.From the students’ point ofview, the Page report is moderateto a fault. Its primary recommen¬dation is that decision-makingwithin the University should befree and open, unless there aretouchy matters which must bekept private. The Page committeechose to gently suggest a varietyof possible means by which stu¬dents can enter into discussions ofacademic policies within each de¬partment. Instead of pumping forany one means, as the studentswanted, the committee decided tolet each department pick andchoose.Presumably, the gentlenesswith which the Page committeechose to put forth its recommen¬dations arises from a fear thatassorted curmudgeons will snapat some insignificant aspect of thereport and thus manage to barkaway at the whole report until itssponsors retreat in defeat.THESE INDICATIONS suggesta picture of the faculty in which,in some if not all departments,there is a small number of “cur¬mudgeons,” who strongly resistany attempts by students to playany part in the department’s af¬ fairs. Students should quietly dotheir research or take their lec¬ture notes, and be se' n infre¬quently, if at all in faculty offices.These faculty members’ mam in¬terests are their own books, re¬search projects, etc.On the other end of the scaleare a few lonesome faculty mem¬bers who support students’ effortsto be heard in their departments’affairs. Typically, h<fwever, theycannot exert too much forceagainst the mushy mass of thosein the middle, who are willing toat least talk with students sym¬pathetically, perhaps even taketheir advice, but would really bejust as happy if students weren'tquite so pushy about things.One might assume that theyounger faculty are most likely t0sympathize with students, andolder faculty less likely. Granted,the more notorious student -sympsare young men, without tenure. Itis possible, however, to findstrains of student-symp attitudesin the upper echelons of tenuredom.Conversely, some of the mostunsympathetic faculty are theyoung, untenured members who,naturally enough, want to rise!The system, however, requiresthem to guard against too muchstress on collaborating with thestudents, and put most of theireffort into writing. It is possiblethat a degree of intense competi¬tiveness among such facultymembers within each departmentgrows out of the requirements ofthe system, and that such compe¬titiveness is at the base of effortsto get rid of colleagues w’ho rockthe boat.David H. RichterA Word on the ParanoidStyle in Campus PoliticsThe facts are recent; they havebeen discussed so thoroughly thatmany of us are sick to death ofthem. Nevertheless, they fall intoan all-too-familiar pattern.Item one. After a strenuouscampaign by Students Against theRank to force administration offi¬cials and the Faculty council toaccede to their demands, the Uni¬versity announced that a maleclass rank would no longer becomputed. SAR respondedimmediately with a mimeo¬graphed flyer accusing the facultyof conspiring to buy off the leftwith half-measures (after all,transcripts were still available;the all-school rank was still reck¬oned).SO FAR AS I have heard, thepossibility was never consideredthat the faculty had acted on prin¬ciple-granted that the principlewas not SAR’s. The decision toend the rank was viewed as aphony, compromise response toaction by the campus left-nothing more.Item two. An assistant profes¬sor in the history department(who, by gentleman’s agreement,has remained anonymous) leakeda story to SDS that CharlesO’Connell had written prejudicialcomments into the record of anapplicant to UC. SDS immediatelydemanded O’Connell’s head, re¬jecting as evidence both Mr.Vice’s humane defense ofO’Connell’s remarks andO’Connell’s own long and unblem¬ished record as a talented andfair-minded administrator. Todate, no one has brought out anyproof that O’Connell’s ill-chosen words actually affected the stu¬dent’s admission.Despite all of this, the adminis¬tration has been accused of tryingto “tamper” with the character ofthe entering classes, of attempt¬ing to weed out all those whodon't hold the proper allrightnikviews. Another conspiracy?Item three. Another assistantprofessor of history, Jesse Lem-isch, has failed to have his con¬tract renewed. Lemisch is knownfor his leftist political views andactivities. The immediate as¬sumption of the student left wasthat the latter caused the former.In an extraordinary public de¬fense of the history department’saction, during which chairmanWilliam McNeill strove mightilyto convince student activists ofhis good faith, campus leaderRusti Woods talked of a “credibil¬ity gap,” while others wondered ifperhaps Lemisch’s personal viewof history might not have in¬fluenced his tenure committee todrop his contract.Now, I do not wish at this timeto offer my opinions on the actualmerits of the cases—what inter¬ests me is the style of the campusprotest, which consists of irre¬sponsible naivete born of para¬noid fear.In six years at this university, Ihave lived through a great manyprotests, and most of them werehonest and honorable. The 1962sit-in over racial discrimination inhousing and the 1964 protest ofpoor dormitory conditions wereresponsible movements: theycharged, as I recall, stupidity, ar¬ rogance and neglect—but they ac¬cused no one of devious conspira¬cy.But the tone seems to havechanged. All campus protest sincelast year’s housing sleep-in hastaken on an aura of fanaticism.Right or wrong, the demonstra¬tors’ ears are closed to argument,explanation, even the last defenseof human fallibility. It’s usagainst them, and the Marquis ofQueensbury’s rules have no rel¬evance to the life-and-death strug¬gle for democracy.ALL OF THIS would be just asad joke if the paranoid style ofcampus politics did not neglectreal moral and intellectural is¬sues. Take the Lemisch case, forexample. In all the blather aboutthe tenured historians’ prejudiceagainst Lemisch’s politics andhistorical method, Lemisch’s trueclaim on the university—his ex¬cellence as a teacher—has notbeen pressed. Where does thiscome in our radicals’ rhetoric?By pushing hardest where theirideas will bear least scrutiny, bycharging plots and conspiracieswhere the very notion of them isludicrous, and, by thus burkingdialogue on campus issues, theleft has chosen to isolate itselffrom the main body of campusopinon—faculty and administra¬tion as well as students. As theissues grow clouded in the mist ofcharges and countercharges, wedraw near to Yeats’ vision of di¬vided Ireland, where “the bestlack all conviction, while theworst are full of passionate inten¬sity.”6 • CHICAGO MAROON • April 28, 1967k'TCA.iThe Chicago Literary ReviewVol. 4 No. 5 May, 1967A Voice from the Projection BoothThe Fetch, by Peter Everett. Simonand Schuster, Inc. $3.95.The Fetch is an absorbing andreadable psychological novel, re¬markable as a twentieth-centurycorollary, with respect to style andinsight, of Dostoevsky’s Notes fromUnderground, or possibly Crimeand Punishment (minus the Epi¬logue).Psychological fiction’s power toconvince seems to depend on thewriter’s ability to provoke a specialparticipation in the r e a d e r—perhaps because thoughts and ac¬tions must be stated separately andcan only be related through thosedimensions which, though intuitive¬ly apprehensible, lie outside theboundaries of the articulate. Mr.Everett has such ability. When he isat his best, we find ourselves ab¬sorbed intellectually as well as emo¬tionally; and he is very much incontrol of our participation at bothlevels. This control is the triumphof his style, and deserves close in¬spection.First, we might look at the stylefor itself. The Fetch is written inthe second person—in Everett’shands, a straightforward and pow¬erful medium of expression. The ex¬periences of “you” are always spe¬cific, the unique property of onepoint in the time and space of“your” psychological process. Thesort of generalization by which“you” so often degenerates into anawkward detour around the imper¬sonal “one” is entirely absent. Butfurther description seems useless;we would do better to look at thebook.You are a cinema projectionist.You wonder if they ever think oLyou in your box, except whenthere’s a break or a hitch. Itdoesn’t matter. You’re alone...Only the film matters. .. Imagesbegin to sound, and the sounds be¬come images; there are a thousandpossible ends and beginnings. Youbecome diffuse, unorganized andself-conscious—an amoeba; youhoard without having to give any¬thing. . .You are thirty-two yearsold; there’s grey in your hair. . .The collar of your shirt isfrayed—looking at you now your fa¬ther would certainly have a fewthings to say: the old things thatused to make you feel so inferiorand unworthy to be his son, whichmade you hate him, the smell ofhim, his size, the scent of hisclothes, the hairs on his hands, hisvoice, the colour of his dyed eye¬brows and beard.\ou have a letter from a lawyer “toinform you that your father diedfive months ago... You’ve inheritedtl>e country house... Now you tellyourself thht it is going to change... You have somewhere togo; the childhood place.”At the station you are met byChilders, the gardener, who was al¬ways devoted to your fine, uprightfather. When you are in the house,you discover that your Uncle Elia,whom you have never met, arrivedtwo days ago and has appropriatedyour room. You protest. You arethen in bed, in your father’s room,for two days, having passed out—the strain of the journey, you sup¬pose. The only person to come inthe room has been Jane, Childers’sgranddaughter, to bring you foodand books.You hear them moving in UncleElia’s furniture, but find you aretoo weak to get up, which makesyou furious. His door is alwayslocked, and he won’t answer. Onemorning when you know he’s gone,you climb out on the roof and in hiswindow, to snoop around the room.You hear his key in the lock, andare unable to move; Uncle Elia en¬ters. “Older, yes; more dissipated,but certainly your father’s brother.Even the way he holds his head;questioning, forceful, with the sametactless directness of the eyes.” Hecomes home drunk, and you helphim to his room. “ ‘You’re a dog,’ hetells you, ‘I can teach you morethan you know... you’ll go down onyour knees and thank me someday . . . I’m your university.’ ” Hetakes to slipping notes under yourdoor: bits of useless information,semi-philosophical paragraphs, tipsabout erotic stimuli, poetic phrases. Like every good university, UncleElia possesses the combined virtuesof a scholarly scrap heap, worldlywisdom, and general dissipation.Jane tells you your Uncle Elia isa fetch. “ ‘My mother used to use it.Some people mean a ghost whenthey say it. But it means a ‘double’ ”You prefer to call her “Elf.” A sex¬ual relationship develops betweenyou and her—your first real one.Childers suspects it, and violentlydisapproves. “ ‘I’m your kin... Iwant nothing happening here,’ hetells her. ‘No trouble... You’ve al¬ready had one little lot. You under¬stand?”’You force the matter of thenotes to Uncle Elia, who then stopsthem, but you have discussions withhim. “You never have time to pre¬pare for his pounced questions—which are either in the form of acatechism or, worse, an interroga¬tion.” You visit your father’s grave;Elf keeps fresh flowers on it. “‘Youcould at least have prayed!’ yourUncle Elia tells you.. .‘Your behav¬ior shows a deep-rooted tasteless¬ness. It makes many things clear tome. I would never have believed itof you.’ ” You and he and Childersgo into town for a drink; you drinktoo much. As you return from thelavatory, Uncle Elia says to the oth¬ers, “Now, I’d imagine Bruno herewould know something about it’...laughing loudly... ‘He’s probablysexually excited by funerals.’ Hetouches your shoulder. ‘Eh, Bruno?A bit obsessed by death?”’ He in¬ sists upon helping you to yourroom. “ ‘Just leave me alone!’ youtell him.” He says, “ ‘You’re pert,my boy.I only seek to assist you.We’ve both come a long way.’”“You fall into these absurditiesand this feeling for ambiguity andparadox because you’re unable toact. Your failure to act is only anoutcome of fear, and always hasbeen.” You visit Elf. “‘You neverleft this house,’ she tells you. ‘Yourwhole life is an act of going back, ofretreat.’ ‘Neither of us seems ableto take a forward step.’ ‘It’s stillpossible for me, she says. ‘I’ve gonemuch farther than you. But wheredoes one find the true experiencewhen none of your partners isreal?’ She seems opposite, extreme,frightening, desirable... You knowthat she believes in what she says,and you have nothing to answer—filled only with a sense of your owninadequacy.” You brush her hair,etc. Back in your father’s room,“thickly, close, obscene, your uncletransforms himself, acquires moreof the image, the authority, until hebecomes almost indistinguishable.”You decide to kill Uncle Elia.“Some people use firearms everyday, you tell yourself.. .You hold it(Continued on page two)wmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmTABLE OF CONTENTSBiography:Mr. Clemens and MarkTwain, by Justin Kaplan .. .6Current Affairs:The Arrogance of Power,by J.

No better than animals, theyhave no regard for those sacred in¬stitutions of showers and deodorant.These are only a few of the notionsassociated with the Hell's Angels.Now at last someone has set usstraight.Hunter S. Thompson's report, if itis not indeed biased in favor of so¬ciety or the Angels, deserves anaward for the best written accountof one of the most feared twen¬tieth-century outlaw gangs. Asmany as two hundred bikes on onerun, a rolling zoo on wheels withbeards dyed green, the ever-presentcolors of a winged death’s headwith “Hell’s Angels’’ written above,the swastikas and oil-soaked levis,these are the “one-percenters,” andthey are every bit as real as the re¬cord shows.The Hell's Angels have done al¬most all of the feats attributed tothem.

For one thing, most ofthese “misguided youths” are intheir twenties and a few are in theirthirties.

Comingpredominantly from the lower class,with fathers who were also unskill¬ed laborers, these outcasts find areal sense of belonging in being anAngel. For them, there is no otherway than their strange fraternal so¬ciety with rituals and codes.One of the hardest things to un¬derstand about the Angels is theirbrutal beatings. But when you areagainst society and the Main Cop, everyone is a threat to your securi¬ty. The Angels have a total retali¬ation ethic and the club’s motto is“All on One and One on All.” No¬body ever picks a fight with justone Angel. They are sheer muscleand guts, and if you are going to doanything you had better be able totake it. Pity and a hospital bill forthe man who puts up a front andthen can’t muster enough supportin the time it takes to break a beerbottle or unravel one of thosechains the Angels wear for belts.One of the book’s most interest¬ing discussions shows the extent toProjection Booth(Continued from page one)as a weapon should be held, elatedby the knowledge that you havegone some of the way towards themastery of it.” You shoot throughthe ceiling. Uncle Elia and Elf raceup the stairs. “You aim at the opendoor... where you judge his heartwill be... He stands frames in thedoorway... You pull the trigger.”He is not dead; you grazed hisleft arm-pit. He and Elf scurryabout, “trying to convince Childersthat is was all a pre-arranged game,ending in an unforeseen accident...The sudden comedy of it takes youby surprise. You laugh until yourthroat aches. You wonder whereyou have been. But it no longer oc¬curs to you to ask who you are. Insome odd w?ay, you seem to have in¬vented yourself by your act.”So addressed, the reader is pro¬voked to a double response. Emo¬tionally, he is involved with Bruno,and shares in his experience of suf¬fering and grow th. But at the sametime, in a kind of self-defense, hewithholds from complete identifica¬tion with Bruno. This last is ex¬tremely important, because it pre¬vents the reader from being blind¬folded by Bruno’s limitations. Lack¬ing integrity himself, Bruno cannotappreciate it in others. For him, hisfather, his mother, Childers, Janeand Uncle Elia are little more thanseparate collections of detailsclumped around a mysterious supe¬riority that in the men threatensPICTURE CREDITSBeiita Lewis Page 1Sarah Burn* Page 3Bob Griota Pages 6, 7him, and in the women promisesprotection. The reader, wheneverother people appear, finds it natu¬ral to depart from Bruno longenough to arrange the same detailsinto much more meaningful person¬alities. He can then make sense oftheir gestures toward one anotherand Bruno; he sees what they meanto each other, and what Brunomeans to each of them. He partici¬pates intellectually, understandinghow Bruno’s development is theproduct of these interrelationships,which are chaos to Bruno. Dostoevsky, in the nineteenthcentury, wrote of men sucked intoChaos by their own overweening in-tellectualism. His success, as inCrime and Punishment, restedlargely in his ability to preserve theinvolved reader’s sympathy for sucha character; and when this failed,as in parts of Notes from Under¬ground, positive feeling vanished,and the reader now finds himselfwading through dull and difficultwordiness.In the twentieth century Everettwrites of a man drawn from chaostoward spontaneity and self-respect.His success with the involved read¬er depends upon his ability to pre¬vent complete sympathy; and whenhe fails, as in the opening of thefirst bedroom scene, intellectual ac¬tivity vanishes, and the reader isplunged into pornography. Theseare brief moments, few and far be¬tween, hut they are costly, and forall but the most sophisticated read¬ers will obscure much that is of realworth.Dostoevsky, along with many pro¬found thinkers of his day and ours,sees a presumptuous modern civili¬zation toppling over in the quake ofunheeded natural forces. A symbolfor this is St. Petersberg, built on aswamp at the expense of peasantlives, and lull of rootless people. Hefelt that the reality of the irrationalMan must bring to confusion allintellectual constructs. Peter Ever¬ett tells another story. He remindsme of the movement in post¬existentialist philosophy that callsfor “a new optimism.” The notionsof chaos implicit in his novel—thecollection of sense experiences andmemory fragments, the dissolutionof individuality into energy fluxand of personality into relationship,the sexual function that Freud un¬covered in every manifestation ofhuman energy—and what he buildswith, not against, or even upon.With them he builds a statementabout integration of personality andspontaneous action, maturity andwisdom and control. Here in em¬bryo is a human construction thatjust might stand up to the tribunalof irrational forces.Betty ArnholtMiss Arnholt is a second-year studentmajoring in English at Valparaiso Uni¬versity. which the press has influenced thegroup.

Much has been writ¬ten about Burroughs’s “themes”and rightly so, for one can derive ahard-fisted abstract revolutionaryoutlook from his work. Burrough’sessential social outlook is modeledafter narcotics addiction: total needand dependence on the part of thejunkie and total control by the drugand the pusher. But the real proofis in the reading, and Burroughs’many literary effects demand atten¬tion. He is an extremely talentedwriter, and to read him is an incred¬ible experience. <Allen Ginsberg in his boyish waycalled Naked Lunch “an endlessnovel that will drive everyonemad.” But Norman Mailer comesclosest to explaining what Bur¬roughs is really about, describinghis writing as:attaching a stringent, mordant vo¬cabulary to a series of precise andhorrific events, a species of gallowshumor which is a defeated man'slast pride, the pride that he has, atleast, not lost his bitterness.Burroughs’s principal effect is hu¬mor, surreal, black, satirical, or amixture of these, always scornful.He is a great imitator and parodistof American argots—regional,scientific, bureaucratic, journalistic,and even foreign slang from GradeB cinema. In his huge vision of de¬cadence, of addiction and control,the types he parodies frequentlymerge with relics of street life, theliving symbols of the degradationman permits and often unknowing¬ly perpetuates. Burroughs’s enor¬mous cast of characters is full offreaks and perverts. Among others:Dr. Benway, mad medico whomassages a patient’s heart with asuction cup, an amoral pure scien¬tist who tries to keep a woman aliveon a diet of sugar.The County Clerk, example ofSouthern brutality and ignorance,who ‘soften spent weeks in the privyliving .on scorpions and Montgom¬ery Ward catalogues.”,The academic pedant who inad¬vertently shows that “nothing canbe accomplished on the verbal lev¬el.” ............ . ■ • VThe capitalist exploiter of foreignmarkets who comments: “Nice folk,these Arabs.', .nice ignorant folk.”Unscrupulous tycoons, liars,bores, junkies, “orgasm addicts,”and more—the refuse of civilizationpiled so high that one is in dangerof suffocating. Burroughs is con¬temptuous of them all. He wouldlike to see the mess eliminated and(hides society for standing still inthe face of it. Burroughs’ prose is limited to thebarest kind of description:Slunk traffickers (“slunks” areinfant calves trailing the after¬birth) tail a pregnant cow to herlabor. The farmer declares a cou-vade, rolls screaming in bullshitThe veterinarian wrestles with acow skeleton. The traffickers machinegun each other, dodgingthrough the machinery and silos,storage bins, haylofts, and mangers of a vast red barn. The calfis born. The forces of death meltin morning. Farm boy kneels rev¬erently—his throat pulses in therising sun.In the space of a paragraph the en¬tire mood of a preposterous scenechanges dramatically. The languageis not melodic, yet its brutal modeof expression achieves such rhythmthat contempt, humor and pathosstand out in bold outline. Bur¬roughs always writes to the point;his nonfiction is excellent journal¬ism. And to compound the mixture,he often expresses sober social, po¬litical and scientific ideas throughthe mouths of his villains in theirstereotyped speech patterns.Since his first book, NakedLunch, Burroughs has written threenovels: The Ticket That Exploded,The Soft Machine, and Nova Ex¬press. Each was done in what hecalls the “cut-up or fold-in method”which consists of actually splicingstrips of manuscript together. Theensuing associations areconstructed—consciously or bychance. Consequently, much moredepends on the reader’s dynamicsthan on the author’s careful crafts¬manship. Invariably the result ismore rapidfire cardstacking of sen¬sory, humorous, and intellectual ef¬fects. Man’s enemies are symbolized in surreal and fantastic comic stripepisodes by the “nova criminals”(“nova,” of course, is the astrophysi-cal term for an exploding star).These cover a wide range of charac¬ters, from absurd and hideous bad-men to fantastic crab-like insectivaland reptilian monsters. Their weap¬ons against freedom, besides mereverbal untruths, arise from unre¬stricted manipulations of science¬like the “writing in” of another per¬son’s existence, using real or imagi¬nary biochemical and biophysicalmethods. They distort reality al¬most beyond repair. (Burroughsclaims a technical justification forcertain of these who have collabo¬rated with him in writing.) Howev¬er, apocalypse, or “nova,” and “thecolorless no-smell of death” can beaverted by recognizing the enemyand using appropriate counter¬measures. Hence symbolic war occa¬sionally breaks out between theNova Mob and the good guys, theNova Police:The Reality Film giving andbuckling like a bulkhead underpressure and the pressure gaugewent lip and up. The needle was . .edging to NOVA. Minutes to go.Burnt metal smell of 'inter¬planetary war in the raw noonstreets swept by screaming glassblizzards of enemy flak.Burroughs justifies the cut-uptechnique (of which the above, inci¬dentally, is not an example) by hisneed to give language immediatemeaning, to chop his verbal medi¬um into its most expressive units.As he says in Naked Lunch: “Theword cannot be expressed direct...It can perhaps be indicated by mo¬saic of juxtaposition like articles abandoned in a hotel drawer, de¬fined by negatives and absence... ”Burroughs is fascinated with thepower of language as the substanceof conscious existence. The uses of“the word” are manifold. Newspa¬pers, political statements, commonopinion, and direct experience areactually different spheres of con¬sciousness based on the way theyuse language. Each describes thesame objective fact and yet thatfact seems different in each case. Apertinent contemporary example isthe Vietnam War which is signifi¬cant in at least two ways: what itmeans to the threatened Asian peas¬ant and what it means to the secureAmerican. But while there aremany points of view, there is onlyone real war in Vietnam—the mili¬tary operations which actually takeplace. Burroughs is always after theimmediate act, the real process ofbeing in immutable space and time.Then he applies his inflexible mor¬ality to each case. One individual’stime may be false to another. Whenone allows alien interference, he isthe prisoner of a “time monopoly.”One must not accept false time orany other falsity: to be immobile inany dimension is to be a slave.Unfortunately, the haphazardstructure of the “cut-up,” thoughbrilliant in spots, is occasionally an¬noying. At times the result is closeto arhythmic gibberish. But accord¬ing to statements made by AllenGinsberg before his February po¬etry reading in Chicago, GrovePress will soon be coming out withnew Burroughs material in astraight narrative Western form. Inaddition, Ginsberg said Burroughsis now' working on a book of “anti¬brainwash techniques.” If this ispublished, we may have somethingunique in comtemporary Americanliterature: a social revolutionarywith a programmatic ideology.The purpose of my writing is toexpose and arrest Nova Criminals.In Naked Lunch, Soft Machine, andNova Express 1 show who they areahd what they are doing and whalthey will do if they are not arrest¬ed.

George Braziller. $4.00.The Sense of an Ending, by FrankKermode. Oxford University Press.$5.75.Ned Rorem made the best-sellerlists a few months ago with his Par¬is Diary, a book widely admired forits candor—which is to say Roremdid not hesitate to reveal his sexualvirtuosity. It was a non-book,though interesting for its gossip andfor Rorem’s presentation of himselfas an accomplished, if now well-known, musician able to move easi¬ly in artistic and aristocratic circles.The price for this social successwas, paradoxically enough, that hismusic was ignored. But Rorem wasprobably encouraged by the recep¬tion of his last book; so this newone, Music from Inside Out, may bean attempt to w'in the reputation hissocial forays could not achieve.Frank Kermode, on the otherhand, enjoys a well-established rep¬utation as a literary critic. He hadarrived long before Rorem beganmucking around in Paris. He is list¬ed in Bateson, and this new book,The Sense of an Ending, w as origi¬nally written for the Mary FlexnerLectureship at Bryn Mawr Col¬lege—a series which has in the pastincluded such thinkers as Breasted,Whitehead, Richards and, most re¬cently, Henri Peyre. Kermode andRorem are clearly out to prove dif¬ferent things.In one sense, however, Kermodeand Rorem think alike. There is theobvious difference in subject mat¬ter, and the fact that one book isthe product of a skilled and widelyexperienced critic, while the otheris not; but both writers work from asingle critical assumption. Conse¬quently, the discussion of music orof literature, of the hard fate of thenovel or the art song, expresses asingle aesthetic.Kermode’s procedure is to workfrom a discussion of fiction in gen¬eral to a more particular discussionof the novel, and finally to offer hisjudgements and prophecies on thefuture of the novel in English. It isa logical progression, but it ob¬scures Kermode’s real subject: thefunction of the novel (to “mitigateour existential anguish”), and thefailure of most contemporary fic¬tion, especially French fiction, tofulfill its obligations. This is a rath¬er lengthy argument, perhaps thedefinitive English answer to thenouveau roman and the heresies ofRobbe-Grillet, but it can be brieflysummarized. Fiction is defined in terms of itsproducer and its audience, and Ker¬mode gives a peculiarly moderntwist to this old neoidealistic formu¬la. Placed in the context of a con¬temporary audience, fiction be¬comes a means of soothing our col¬lective anxiety; it is a consolationprize for “the utter difference, theutter shapelessness, and the utterinhumanity” of the world; its para¬digms are to be found in the Chris¬tian Bible, in Genesis and Revela¬tion, in the form that can be givenreality by the imposition of begin¬ning and “the sense of an ending.” Of all fictions, the novel is both themodern apocalypse and the re¬sponse to a prevailing apocalypticmood. It is a way of controlling our“eschatological anxiety.”And since these are the uses offiction, there are two specificabuses against which Kermodeargues. Fiction must not degenerateinto the rigidity of “myth,” normust it fall into the pure formless¬ness “of the cut-out writers, and thecard-shuffle writers.” Any attemptto impose a coherent form on anessentially incoherent reality will produce a fiction. The novel, howev¬er, must always attempt to achieve“concordance,” defined as an orga¬nization of reality in terms of a be¬ginning, middle and end.The mythical novel, apparently,assumes that its fiction is literallytrue. It takes its formalization ofreality (the foundation for its ownexistence) as reality itself, and con¬sequently becomes “false” either byexplaining too much or by imposing(Continued on page ten)Sophisticated PrimitivismThe Savage Mind, by Claude Levi-Strauss. University of ChicagoPress. $5.95.There are apparently only two re¬quirements for reading this recentcontribution to the field of philo¬sophical anthropology: first, to haveread the author’s preceding workon Totemism (1963) and Sartre’sCritique de la raison dialectique(I960) and second, to keep an una¬bridged dictionary on hand at alltimes. The former is, in effect, rec¬ommended by the author himself,who w arns in the preface that “thereader should know what is expect¬ed of him. . .: that he acquiesce inthe negative conclusion wrhich thefirst volume reached in regard tototemism; for, once it is clear why Ibelieve that the anthropologists offormer times were prey to an illu¬sion, it is time for me to exploretotemism’s positive side.” He con¬tinues with an illusion to Sartre’sview of the “philosophical funda-ments of anthropology”—withwhich he disagrees.The second requirement stemsfrom the author’s extensive use ofterms relating particularly to histopic, or having obscure anthropol¬ogical connotations. This vocabu¬lary can be distracting (not to saymaddening) to the uninitiated, butits value lies in precise expressionof otherwise vague or illusory ideas.For example, in concluding a dis¬cussion of familiar animal names,he says, “If, therefore, birds aremetaphorical human beings anddogs, metonymical human beings,cattle may be thought of as meto¬nymical inhuman beings, and racehorses as metaphorical inhumanbeings.” (p. 207) The logic of thestatement is supported by preced¬ing paragraphs, but its purport isnonetheless amazing.Levi-Strauss’s bold appropriationof concepts from ordinarily unrelat¬ed subjects for the formulation ofhis own intricate ideas demandsclose attention. In learning to un¬derstand his unusual usage, howev¬er, we are exercising our mentalfaculties for the more difficult taskof penetrating the construct hemakes. The question is this: havingarrived at the weighty pronounce¬ment of the metonymic and meta¬phoric relations between animal and man, do we know why and howa hound came to be called “Rover”instead of “Jonathan Jo”? Perhapsafter a second reading.The organization of The SavageMind is designed to frighten awayall but the most hardy (stubborn?)readers. After making the ominousremarks about the two other booksupon which this one is based, Levi-Strauss plunges into a chapter ofphilosophical groundwork that canbe overcome only with utmost per¬sistence. The process of getting intoit is rather like jumping into aswimming pool—the initial shock isdeterring, but after a short time the“cold” becomes “cool” and stimu¬lating. The middle chapters aremore concerned with “case histo¬ries” which are, predictably, moreinteresting, or at least a trifle eas¬ier to read. Throughout the book,the author copiously illustrates histheories. Unfortunately, these ex¬amples are sometimes less pertinentthan they might be, and trying tounderstand their relevance is aproblem.In his discussion of the “mind inits untamed state as distinct frommind cultivated or domesticated forthe purpose of yielding a return,”the author explores the problem:“to what extent thought that canand will be both anecdotal and geo¬metrical may yet be called dialecti¬cal.” (p. 245) Without some back¬ground in anthropology or psychol¬ogy, the arguments are difficult tofollow. Even a novice in the field,however, could find the book fasci¬nating, if only for some of the inci¬dental comments.After an unemotional descriptionof the individuality of personalities,for instance, Levi-Strauss con¬cludes: “When the loss of someonedear to us or of some public person¬age such as a politician or writer orartist moves us, we suffer much thesame sense of irreparable privationthat we should experience wererosa centifolia to become extinctand its scent to disappear forever.”(p. 214) Can he be serious? And hisfootnotes, strangely enough, areespecially interesting and oftenamusing. Perhaps as a relief from his sometimes stilted style, he letshimself go at the bottom of the pagewith an ironic or divergent remark.Simplified references are madewithin the text and expanded in abibliography in the back, so tediousnumbered notes are avoided withno loss of accuracy. The method isvery efficient and not at all distract¬ing.If the first part of the book maybe instructive for an amateur, it becomes painfully obvious in the finalchapter that at least a passing ac¬quaintance with Sartre is necessaryto understand the basic concepts.The language is technically philo¬sophical, and the content is a refu¬tation of previously stated argu¬ments. The last page, reached withonly the greatest endurance, is—incredibly—just a place of depar¬ture.Mary Sue LeightonMiss Leighton is a second-year stu¬dent in Russian Civilization at TheUniversity of Chicago.BESTSELLER!150,000 in print"An invaluable antidote tedie official rhetoric of govern-’ment.*—mux viumkil, iron*page.

William Fulbright. RandomHouse. $4.95 and $1.95.Words of wisdom come so infre¬quently from the United States Sen¬ate tha'. one is loath to questioneven a reasonable facsimile—especially where foreign policy isconcerned. But Washington bepraised! Here at last we have a Sen¬ate committee chairman telling usthat perhaps the Cuban Revolutionwasn’t so bad, either for us or forthe Cuban people (who, after all,live only a hundred or so milesfrom the American-supported dun¬geon of Haiti). Here at last we havea man of power telling us thatAmerica should look at China withlove, not hate and fear, and shouldbe ready to help her when she isready to accept it. And here at lastwe have a senator of long tenuretelling the American people theyare, in fact, shamefully anti¬revolutionary and cannot hope tounderstand the needs and wants ofthe rest of the world well enough totell it how to live.The senator, of course, is J. Wil¬liam Fulbright, chairman of theSenate Foreign Relations Commit¬tee and the Washington establish¬ment’s most outspoken critic of thecurrent Vietnam policy. But hisbook is more than a criticism of theVietnam war—it outlines the sena¬tor’s view of the American mind onforeign policy.Fulbright talks first of the “arro¬gance of power—a psychologicalneed that nations seem to have inorder to prove that they are bigger,better, or stronger than other na¬tions.” This need, he feels, is thebasic underpinning of America’sdrive to world military commit¬ments. As the world’s strongest na¬tion, the United States seems “pow¬erful, but not self-confident,’’ andso must use its power to build self-confidence. Further, America “maybe drifting into commitmentswhich, though generous and benev¬olent in intent, are so far-reachingas to exceed even America’s greatcapacities.” These commitments,Fulbright explains, are based large¬ly on America’s desire to protectother nations from the ugliness ofCommunism as she understands it.The senator traces the long histo¬ry of Arnerica’s self-image as cru¬sader and puritan. He writes of theintervention in Cuba in 1898, and ofWoodrdw'Wilson’s intervention inMexico^—rboth instances of the Unit¬ed States’ benevolent but misguidedmeddling. Fulbright believes therewas a strain of puritanism sur¬rounding the Korean War also; butthough our missionary zeal was em¬ployed to save South Korean free¬dom, he comments that now “Amer¬icans little know or care’’ about thestate of South Korean politics.Then he turns to Vietnam. Forthis sore case he proposes a generalcease-fire, a U.S. promise for even¬tual complete withdrawal, electionsin the south to include the NationalLiberation Front, and an all-Asia conference to arrange a nation-widereferendum on reunification. Theinternational conference wouldguarantee general elections andwould subsequently “undertake tonegotiate a multilateral arrange¬ment for the general neutralizationof Southeast Asia.” He concedesthat the achievement of this last ob¬jective is “very doubtful.” Finally,if agreement cannot be reached toend hostilities, Fulbright urges U.S^withdrawal from the war in its cur¬rent form and recommends the sub¬sequent establishment of militaryenclaves.So much for Vietnam. He givesno legal history of the involvementthere, which is just as well, as it hasbeen raped enough already. Butmost of what he says here he hassaid before. Yet his “plan” is vague,general, and unready for applica¬tion to the complexities of the pres¬ent situation. Fulbright does not of¬fer a full story of the forces that ledus there in the first place; nor doeshe consider what could happen thenext time a brush war breaks out.What Fulbright tells us is that wereally didn’t mean it. Vietnam wasall a benevolent misconception:The official war aims of the Unit-ed States government, as I under¬stand them, are to defeat what isregarded as North Vietnameseaggression, to demonstrate the fu¬tility of what the communists call“wars of national liberation,” andto create conditions under whichthe South Vietnamese people willbe able freely to determine theirown future.I have not the slightest doubt ofthe sincerity of the President and ,the Vice-President and the Secre¬taries of State and Defense in pro¬pounding these aims.Fulbright then destroys the ideathat the war is, in fact, one ofaggression from Hanoi. He tells usthe domino theory is not relevantand certainly not worth the cost. Fi¬nally he indicates that “guaran¬teeing South Vietnamese” freedomis uncertain by present methods,and under those circumstances, notworth the cost in either Americanor Vietnamese men and money.Fine. But it seems rather strangethat the Chairman of the SenateForeign Relations Committee can,on the one hand, tell us that he nowregrets the freedom given the ad¬ministration by the Tonkin resolu¬tion, and, and the other, that hedoes not for one minute have “theslightest doubt” about the adminis¬tration objective of free elections inthe South. Is he, in his position,really convinced that the Johnsonadministration is willing to let theViet Cong into the government? Ishe also convinced that Johnson isconsidering peace terms in the bestlong-run interests of the Viet¬namese people, or rather of his ownadministration at home? Fulbright’sstatement exonerates the adminis¬tration, but his oversimplificationleaves us in doubt. For the senator appears to havebent over too far to establish the“sincerity” of the American peoplein all this. If one is going to under¬take an analysis of the character ofa nation, to explain why that nationforms its foreign policy the way itdoes, then it would seem one shoulddo just that. Fulbright wandersfrom the point. For example, in themidst of an explanation of thewell-meaning American messian-ism, Fulbright finds it necessary toexplain why the Rusk-Johnson AsiaDoctrine is not relevant to Ameri¬can security considerations. In themidst of telling us that America’s“honest purpose” in stamping outleftists in Latin America “is the ad¬vancement of development and de¬mocracy,” he must also explain thatthere was no national security justi¬fication for intervening in SantoDomingo or for nearly blastingCuba into the stone age. It wouldseem that in stringing together aseries of speeches on a highly com¬plex topic, the senator has passedover some of the more obvious butless tasteful emphases.And so he concludes:TTiere are two Americas. One isthe America oi Lincoln and AdlaiStevenson; the other is the Ameri¬ca of Teddy Roosevelt and themodern superpatriots. One is gen¬erous and humane, the other nar¬rowly egotistical; one is self-critical, the other self-righteous:one is sensible, the other romantic;one is good-humored, the other sol¬emn; one is inquiring, the otherpontificating; one is moderate, theother filled with passionate intensi¬ty; one is judicious and the otherarrogant in the use of great power.Unfortunately, there are otherAmericas. One is paranoid aboutworld Communism and has beensince 1945. To that one Fulbrightoffers a new understanding of Com¬munism. One is a munitions manu¬facturer who grabs up generals withPentagon contacts as fast as theycan retire. One is an advisor to theDominican intervention with clearinterests in Dominican sugar cane.One is a general in Vietnam whotells the London newspapers about“zapping the Cong.” One is a mid¬dle-class Californian who demandslaws to keep the “yellow peril” outof his state, and who certainly careslittle about napaiming a few moreof them in Vietnam. These Ful¬bright passes over.And in passing them over, the de¬bunker of myths refuses to do hisjob. As chairman of the Senate For¬eign Relations Committee he wasadmittedly laggard in searching outerrors and shortcomings in adminis¬tration conceptions of the war; hecontinues to do less solid reportingthan he could.To Senator Fulbright, the Ameri¬cans who compose our mind on for¬eign policy “cry out against povertyand injustice,” but somehow havebeen misguided on the realities ofworld politics, Communism, and so¬cial revolution. Perhaps the senator,if he is going to do a serious analy¬sis of the American mind on foreignpolicy, might stop treating the American reaction to Communismas an isolated phenomenon andopen his eyes to “those who cry outagainst poverty and social injus¬tice” in Arkansas, or Mississippi orHarlem.What he conveniently neglects isthat our actual foreign aid is only$3 billion in the first place, if that.Does “benevolent messianism” of¬ten offer seventeen times as muchmilitary as economic gospel?“Mistakes” like Vietnam don’tjust happen because Abe Lincolnlost out to Teddy Roosevelt. Theyhappen because a whole spectrumof forces came into play to send usthere. Each of these strains mustbe, in its turn, explicated and com¬batted.

Therevival of interest in Twain has never been higher; there isa crying need for a really top-flight biography; enough ofthe laborious ground work has already been covered in schol¬arly articles and monographs; and a rash of books treating ingreat detail limited areas of Twain’s life have come out andbeen thoroughly evaluated. Access to great quantities ofmaterial in the Mark Twain Papers has been much sim¬plified of late, and will be even easier as the Universityof California Press continues publishing them. The timeis ripe for the great literary biographer to step in, sift,evaluate and synthesise all this into a magnificently read¬able and accurate definitive Life.Justin Kaplan must have felt pretty sly six years agowhen he “set aside an editorial career” (as the dust-jacketblurb tells us), to work on his “long-planned” biographyof Twain. He would sweep the field. And by commercialstandards it would be hard to say he hasn’t done just that.Tht 'took had a fine publisher, a large advertising budget, anenormous sale; and last month Mr. Kaplan walked off withthe crowning glory—a check from the National Book AwardCommittee for writing the year’s best book in Arts andLetters. Imagine! The biography of Twain has arrived!Except it hasn’t. Mr. Kaplan deserves congratulationsfor writing a book which sells a lot of copies, no smallachievement, especially since it is his first. But for all that,he has not written a very goodbiography of Mark Twain.As one might guess fromthe title, Mr. Clemens andMark Twain is a biographybased on the assumption thatits subject was in some sensea split personality. There isMark 'Twain, the literary fig¬ure made famous in RoughingIt, Innocents Abroad, and onthe lecture platforms of thelyceum circuit throughout the1870’s. His character is a famil¬iar part of the 19th centuryAmerican scene, and has per¬haps contributed more thanve realize to our national self-image. We all recognize him—ihe small town boy grown up,boisterous, colorful, viciouslyself-reliant, bawdy-mouthed,probably homeless and smelly,given to nostalgia, and muchless worldly than he thinks.Imagine the great grandfatherof the hippies and you havehim.Samuel L. Clemens was sucha man in his youth, a factwhich would now have onlypassing interest except thatClemens also fixed the spiritof such men in literature. Peo¬ple loved it, and Clemens wascaught, stuck to his persona,and forced to write and lecturein the character of MarkTwain, which was enormouslyprofitable but sometimes quite(Continued on page twelve) The Fixer, by Bernard Malamud.

Wemight like to think that this incomparable novel would re¬ceive the reception it deserved, but probably the journalis¬tic criticism would have fallen into a familiar and predict¬able pattern. The novel is too heavy, some would say. Whatpoint, others would demand, has all the interminable philo¬sophizing, the endless desputes on the nature of God andMan in this tale of parricide? Finally, still others woulddismiss it as a transparent La Vida: A Puerto Rican Fa—San Juan and New York,$10.“In the course of my anand family life in Mexico,” <tion to La Vida, “a number (delicately suggested that I 1own country, the United Stis a first step in that directiroman a clef, a fictionalizedtreatment of the Ilyinsky mur¬der case, and as such unworthyof serious critical attention.Surely this is preposterous— naturally nothing like this■would be perpetrated on anovelist of Dostoyevsky’sstature. Or would it? For thereception of The Fixer was ofjust such a patronizing andprejudicial nature. A fine andmoving book, infinitely aboveanything the author had pre¬viously produced, one whichstrikes chords which remind usof Kafka and (yes!) Dostoy¬evsky — and, for all that, anovel which seemed upon pub¬lication to be fated for theoblivion to which so-so fourthnovels are inevitably consignedThe National Book Awardfor Fiction may, hopefully, save The Fixer, for this is anovel which should not lie buried upon remainder tables.One of the chief obstacles to its recognition was probablyits historical nature. The book is based upon the MendelBeilis case, a particularly loathesome anti-Semitic trial whichtook place in Russia on the eve of World War I. The Fixerroughly parallels the Beilis trial, in which a Jew outsidethe Pale was accused — and convicted — of murdering aGentile boy to obtain Christian blood to mix with flourfor Passover matzos. That the charge was absurd was appar¬ent to all but the most fanatical anti-Semities, but theprosecution was successful because it was politically advan¬tageous for those concerned that Beilis be convicted., Admittedly, if The Fixer contained only this sort of sub¬human hatred, bigotry and injustice, it would have beenneither better nor worse than similar expositions like MeyerLevin’s Compulsion or Donald Mankiewicz’s Trial.

Though we must ultimately read this book as a spiritualodyssey of the victim, handyman Yakov Bok, The Fixer’svision takes in the entire Russian scene from a worm’seye view. The harsh and livid light of Bok’s consciousnessilluminates, at its widest focus, a political scene where theforces of liberalism and reaction are at war — the prize beingthe control of Russia through the weak Tsar Nicholas II.

The volume contains eighteen poems,all of which sustain the subtle confrontation characteristicof the poet’s approach to the individual in general andhimself in particular—an encounter guided by the moralityof a promise-keeper and poetry-maker.In one poem Merrill explains his constructions:The rough pentameterQuatrains give way, you will ob¬serve, to...Interpolations, prose as well asverse.A constant affirmation is inherent in his impeccable form,although previous critics have found it obscured by vividvocabulary and pretentious underlying meanings.

It isthis dance I knowthat cracks the pavementThe pavement of his poems—often cracked by grandiosedistraction, chiselling caesura, humiliating recourse to thedictionary, or the heavy tread of genius quoted verbatim—remains enticing. An author so willing to admit and, infact, able to parlay his “weaknesses” into a National BookAward Prize Winner, must clearly be met on his own ground.That his poetry “smells of the lamp” is actually vital tothe world of Nights and Days that Merrill would show us:The lamp I smell in every line.Do you smell mine?

Knopf. $8.95.In an attempt to synthesize diverse views of the Enlight¬enment, Peter Gay offers a two-volume comprehensive in¬terpretation of its cultural climate and central ideas. Whilehe describes himself as leaning toward a liberal view, heexpresses dissatisfaction with those who would uncriticallypraise the period, as well as with those who castigate theEnlightenment as the source of evils of the modern age. Inhis first volume the author examines the historical originsof the Enlightenment and the dialectic between the pre¬vailing structure of society and the radical ideas of En¬lightenment philosophers. He deals with the outcome of thestruggle he had delineated in the second volume, “The Pur¬suit of Modernity.”In defining the Enlightenment, Gay acknowledges thatthere was no strict organization or uniform set of ideas tobe applied to every philoso¬pher of the Eighteenth Cen¬tury. The association of think¬ers might best be describedas a family — pursuing a com¬mon cause, exchanging ideas,debating, presenting a certainunity without losing theidentity of individuals. Thesource of unity for the En¬lightenment was an attitudeof criticism pursued in theloneliness of freedom. In de¬scribing the Enlightenment asthe development of “modernpaganism” the author indi¬cated two basic elements ofthe age: its affinity for class¬ical thought and its oppositionto Christianity, which wasidentified with an uncritical,myth-oriented mentality.Enlightenment philosophersdiscussed four principal pe¬riods of history: the great rivercivilizations, the age ofGreece, the Christian millen-ium, and the Enlightenment.The philosophes consideredtheir age parallel to the civili¬zation of the Greeks. Whileearlier civilizations had madescientific and cultural advan¬ces, they were still bound toa mythical view of the world,content to explain their ex¬perience in terms of magic-and mysterious powers direc¬ting man’s life. The primaryGreek achievement was thedevelopment of an inquiring,objective attitude toward re¬ality. To the Enlightenment ph:a development of the Greek thrust toward a critical mentality-The philosophes regarded the Christian era as a regression to mythic thinking. They described Christianity aflourishing in a decadent age, feeding on the decaying Romaiempire, finding support among the ignorant. The Christiaipreoccupation with God an^ salvation allowed certain classiauthors to be preserved, but only when forced into a Christian mold and divorced from their native context. Th<(Continued on page nine)Puerto Rican Poverty(Continued from page seven); '1the individual has a profound feel¬ing of “marginality, helplessness,dependence and inferiority.” Theinstitutions and values of the cul¬ture of poverty are consequently re¬sponses both to economic depriva¬tion and to this sense of alienationand frustration. Lewis’s theory isparticularly interesting because itclaims that, in any industrial orquasi-industrial society which satis¬fies certain conditions, an identicalset of quite specific culture patternswill arise. The culture of poverty is,in other words, international.Among its characteristics Lewisfinds a strong sense of community,a compulsive gregariousness, enor¬mous emphasis on sex, mother-dominated families often based onconsensual unions, authoritarianismon the family level, female aggres¬siveness, and a general impulsive¬ness.The book, itself it seems to me,admirably supports Lewis’s analy¬sis, there is no evidence that thefacts are arranged to fit any kind ofthesis. The book is composed of aseries of long tape-recorded conver¬sations, a technique which was usedin Lewis’s best-known book, TheChildren of Sanchez, a classic studyof a Mexico City slum family. Hefirst turned to the intensive studyof family life, he explains, because“It seemed to me that descriptionsof a way of life on the abstract levelof culture patterns left out the veryheart and soul of the phenomenonwe were concerned with, namely,the individual human being.” Whole-family studies, he says,“bridge the gap between the con¬ceptual extremes of culture at onepole and the individual at the other;we see both culture and personalityas they are interrelated in reallife.”The members of the Rios familyof San Juan are the mother Fernan¬da, her three daughters Soledad,Felicita and Cruz, and her son Sim-plicio. For the average middle-classreader, the story of these lives isfrom the beginning an intense,shocking, disturbing, profoundly re¬vealing experience. It is revealingnot only for what these people, intheir amazingly candid and vividdiscussions, tell about their own so¬ciety and values, but also for whatis implied about our own.Here is a world of brutality, vio¬lence and promiscuity, where wom¬en cut each other with razor bladesand turn their husbands in to thepolice; where children are beatenroutinely and learn the rudimentsof sex almost before they can talk.Husbands and wives, parents andchildren, neighbors and comradespursue and flee each other, loveand suffer, in a grimly colorful, ani¬malistic dance. The Rios family liveconstantly searching, constantly un¬fulfilled lives. But they are alsolives of warmth, color, laughter,and generosity. It is this aspect, thecourage and the flamboyance withwhich these people struggle againstcrushing conditions that preventsthis book from being depressing.But it is not optimistic either, be¬cause so many of these people areAnna GrigorievnaDostoevsky gave theSoviet State Archivesa white tin case......containing 15 notebooksfor Dostoevsky’s novels.in 1921 the case wasopened...now the firstthree have beentranslated into EnglishCRIME ANDPUNISHMENTFyodor Dostoevskyedited and translated by Edward WasielekWritten during the lonely andexultant moments of the crea¬tive process, these workingnotebooks record the unfoldingof Crime and Punishment.

The book pre¬sents, all in all, a relentlessly tragicpicture.We soon see how irrelevant ourown moral standards are to suchlives. The fact that Fernanda, Sole-dad and Felicita each went intoprostitution to support their chil¬dren can only be evaluated in thetotal context of the relevant cultur¬al and economic factors. The cul¬ture of poverty is a matter of lifeand death; and culture itself be¬comes only the most generalizedtool in the struggle for physical andemotional survival.That a certain amount of repeti¬tion and tedium should appear inthe course of this book’s 670 pagesof autobiographical reflection isperhaps unavoidable. Lewis doesnot have a novelist’s discretion inarranging and inventing his mate¬rial, because his aim is to present ascomplete and honest a picture aspossible of life as it is actually livedin the slums of Puerto Rico andNew York. But the longueurs, I be¬lieve, are justified by the book’smany intense moments and fine mi¬nor touches. There is Fernanda atthe age of ten forbidding the neigh¬borhood bartender to give her fa¬ther any more rum; there is Fernan¬da recalling her first frightened,guilt-ridden night as a prostitute;there is Soledad telling of the shoot¬ing of her favorite husband, a thief;or Felicita, generally accused ofneglecting her children, thinkingabout her future:Since Georgie left, I haven’t beenable to go back to work or any-thing.

This isthe optimistic side of books like LaVida. Nor need one, like Marx,adopt a gloomily deterministic in¬terpretation of economic substruc¬ture and cultural superstructure.One might just as easily rejoice inthe variety and ingenuity of thesemultifarious modes of living. Eventhe German death camps could notstifle a rudimentary cultural organi¬zation.Yet a sensible cultural pluralismneed not refuse to admit the presence of greater or lesser degrees ofhuman misery in various environ¬ments. Sometimes the struggleagainst despair is lost. Though hedeclines to moralize about the ethi¬cal standards of the Puerto Ricanculture of poverty, and does notdeny the real opportunities for hap¬piness that it provides, Oscar Lewisnevertheless concludes,On the whole it seems to me that itis a relatively thin culture. There isa great deal of pathos, sufferingand emptiness among those wholive in (it). It does not encouragemuch support or long-range satis¬faction and its encouragement ofmistrust tends to magnify helpless¬ness and isolation.He feels that in the United Statesthe members of the culture of pov-erty(six to ten millions, he estimates]are a relatively small percentage olthe total population of the poor dueto peculiar features of North American civilization. This fact is a positive sign, since there is evidencethat “the elimination of physicalpoverty per se may not be enoughto eliminate the culture of poverty,which is a whole way of life.” Soledad Rios has fainting spells in heiNew York apartment.

Man’s character is the onlyrelated meaning that cannot be per¬ceptively divided; it remains color¬less and black even in Merrill’sglassy and shimmering world. Ifhe, like Psyche or any human soul,should light the lamp on this seem¬ingly unequivalent union with bodyand mind (or Eros); if there wereany light capable of penetrating theprism of man’s personality and re¬leasing the spectrum of humanity; ifwe were to see truth apart from theobstacles and obscurity—the “giltwash”; might we, like Psyche, notalso despair at the curiosity andEnlightenmentChristian orientation dominatedevery phase of society. Philosopherslike Rousseau and Condillac main¬tained that medieval thought washostile to the advance of science.The preservation of Christianizedclassic literature in Medieval timespermitted the Renaissance examina¬tion of classic antiquity. The Re¬naissance was viewed by the En¬lightenment as a transition periodwhen the critical mentality could berevived as Christian institutionswere questioned. Although evensuch admired figures as Locke andNewton were identified as Chris¬tians, the age represented a movetoward the realistic, eclectic men¬tality so highly valued by the En¬lightenment. The tension betweenChristianity and the philosophicalmind became more apparent as ele¬ments of Stoicism became associat¬ed with Christian thought. Scholarssuch as Grotius and Locke attempt¬ed to place Christianity on a ration¬al basis, preserving some centraltenets and discarding peripheral, su¬perstitious elements.In tracing the historical trendswhich made the development ofmodern paganism pr 'sible, PeterGay displays ? sympathy for thosein every age "•'ho tended toward thecritical mentality and rejection ofmyth. Yet he admits that the Eight¬eenth Century philosophes in theircriticism of Christianity were oftenexcessively harsh, and guilty of mis-r>ading history,Mr. Gay’s extensive bibliographynot only lists his sources but dis¬cusses them in a bibliographic es¬say.

And when that happens,“we are yielding to an irrational¬ism; we are committing an erroragainst which the intellectual histo¬ry of our century should certainlyhave warned us. Its ideological ex¬pression is fascism; its practicalconsequence the Final Solution.”Alternatively, the novel must notmove so far away from form that itcannot communicate: “As soon as itspeaks, begins to be a novel, it im¬poses causality and concordance,development, character, a pastwhich matters and a future withincertain broad limits determined bythe project of the author.” A bookwhich did not contain these ele¬ments, for example “a set of dis¬continuous epiphanies” such as Sar¬tre has seemed to propose, couldnot be a novel. Even if it could com¬municate something, such a bookwould not provide the consolationsfor existence which Kermode offersas the ultimate criteria for fiction. the *InyThis is an oversimplification of acomplex argument, but it is accu¬rate in its main outlines: Kermodebegins by describing the relation¬ship between fiction and its envi¬ronment (both producer and audi¬ence), and then uses this descriptionto provide a prescriptive base forhis discussion of the novel. In thehands of a critic of Kermode’s intel¬ligence and imagination, this meth¬od produces a richly suggestivebook. But to begin a discussion ofart with an examination of its audi¬ence, and to make everything hingeon the audience’s response is a dan¬gerous practice. For one thing, itbecomes possible to talk at lengthabout nothing at all without everbeing aware of it. Kermode doesnot fall into that error, but his mu¬sical counterpart does.Ned Rorem is of course ham¬pered by the fact that he is poorlyinformed. He thinks, for example,that Stan Kenton and The Beatlesboth play jazz—which is like saying that Wagner and Rudolph Frimlboth wrote opera—or that lyric poe¬try is not popular among contempo¬rary American poets. His book, sofar from being “music from insideout,” is not about music at all, butis a sustained lament over the in¬difference of the public and thelack of recognition and money giv¬en to composers. But the book isvaluable to the extent that it illus¬trates the weaknesses in a criticalapproach like Kermode’s.The fundamental difficulty withthis approach in both books is thatit tends to lose sight of the art formitself while it is busy talking aboutartists and audiences. In Rorem,this produces a vague psychologismcombined with pseudo-profundity,as in his apparently gratuitous ad¬aptation of Wordsworth: “Compos¬ers and painters, in retaining initialfancies, stay children.” This mightbe charming at a cocktail party, butit doesn’t tell me much about mu¬sic. Kermode eventually does getaround to discussing the treatmentof time, character, plot and so forth.But these discussions are not sys¬tematic, and they are carried to analmost impossible degree of abstrac¬tion. Kermode’s referents somehowget lost. And Rorem, except for afew vague comments on fittingwords to tunes, has almost nothingto say about music at all. The bookdoes not reach the level of the col¬lection of demonstration-lecturesBernstein has put together from hisTV scripts. And it comes nowherenear Andre Modeir's book on jazz.Music, for Rorem, is so abstract aterm that it doesn’t seem to applyto anything in particular.But since the art is expected toproduce a particular kind of re¬spouse, these critics are forced totake a conservative position with re¬gard to the forms appropriate to it.For Rorem, this means giving an¬other beating to what I had thoughtwas the quite pulverized corpse ofJlpfce $ark 9uto7646 stony island 734 6393MBAVimv wIMtomsan imommutm BOIES mum||il miMsumm $>mm bujes mfm M.■ FOIH J3J.UE5 .• ;Thoughts that breathe.. .Words that burn£These, my friends, are the rea) folk blues.Available in both Mono and Electronic Stereowherever records are soldSend tor free Catalog MlwChess Records ... Chicago, Illinois 60616 program music. There is a lot of sil¬ly talk about the importance ofart-song, and the incomprehensi¬bility of John Cage. None of this isimportant, but it is interesting thatKermode should think in terms ofthe same opposition between a falseliteralness (program music or myth)and what he takes to be pure form¬lessness (Cage or Robbe-Grillet). Ev¬eryone can agree to the case againstprogram music or myth, eventhough it is overstated. But it is nottrue that Robbe-Grillet rejects form(I cannot speak for Cage). What hedoes reject is the “false” distinctionbetween form and content. The nov¬el, then, becomes nothing but itsform; it is a complex “imitation,”having certain relations to its pro¬ducer, the world and its audience,but never entirely defined by anysingle one of these elements. ButKermode is interested in form onlysubordinated. And it turns out, fi¬nally, that Kermode is not so mucha formalist as he is a critic who iscapable of recognizing the validityof only certain kinds of form.This limitation is the direct re¬sult of his primary decision to de¬scribe fiction in terms of an audi¬ence’s response. Clearly fiction re¬quires an audience, but Kermode’sextension of this point has resultedin a subtle argument for the gratifi¬cation of that old symbol of decadence, the aesthetic emotion. Botlihe and Rorem expect this gratification. It is the consolation of art. Ro¬rem is sorry that so few experienceit: “art... is an aristocratic affair."Kermode is afraid that the meansfor its arousal will die away in amad scramble for new experimental techniques.There is no answering Rorem.but it is surprising that Kermode r »could follow Collingwood as far ashe does and still talk about a re¬sponse so generalized and abstrac tthat it becomes peculiarly “aesthetic.” Emotions are held to be muchmore particular and specific in mostneo-idealistic systems (and Kermodeis a neo-idealist). And even outsidesuch systems it seems clear that ourresponses to fiction are more variedthan Kermode suggests. How, forexample, does Lear “console”? If Iwere a sinner, to what extent wouldRevelations control my “eschatological anxiety”? And in any case, howmuch would the answers to eitherof these questions explain theseworks as works of art? It is likelythat contemporary French criti¬cism, perhaps even the criticism ofRobbe-Grillet, by placing its empha¬sis on the thing itself as opposed tothe response of a hypothetical audi¬ence, will produce the more coher¬ent aesthetic for the novel of today.Michael I.

The mask didn’t always fit;Clemens outgrew parts of his creat¬ed character, married, started afamily, entered a wide variety ofbusiness enterprises, and developedrefined and expensive tastes underthe influence of his new surround¬ings.The conflicts between Mr. Cle¬mens and Mark Twain, so runs Mr.Kaplan’s thesis, enable us to under¬stand the last forty-four years of theauthor’s life. The dialectic works intwo ways: first we look to see whatMr. Clemens did with Mark Twain,how he “explored the literary andpsychological options of a new,created identity. . . ,” and then wewatch how the drives and ambitionsof Mr. Clemens conflicted with andeventually destroyed the quite dif¬ferent drives and ambitions of hiscreated persona.The Twain-Clemens approach tothis author’s life was made familiarin the 20’s by the literary debates ofVan Wyck Brooks and Bernard DeVoto. Now that so much new mate¬rial is available it is right and goodthat the case be re-examined. (Al¬though perhaps it is not so rightand good that this approach be pre¬sented as an original idea; Mr. Kap¬lan cites almost no secondarysources.) Perhaps such a divisionapplies to Sam Clemens more readi¬ly than it might to some other au¬thors; nevertheless, dialectic is atbest a clumsy tool for a biographer,and here it forces Mr. Kaplan alter¬nately to submerge his thesis in fa¬vor of accuracy and exaggerate hissubject to fit his hypothesis.Thus when it is advantageous forMr. Kaplan to see Twain as a row¬dy, even the flimsiest evidence isacceptable, providing it supports histhesis; we are told that once a “lo¬cal editor” in San Francisco calledClemens a “jailbird, bailjumper,deadbeat, and alcoholic” and “insin¬uated” that Clemens had been“rolled in a whorehouse and proba¬bly had venereal disease.” This isfun to read but from such an unreli¬able source that the report is almostmeaningless as evidence for Cle¬mens’ character.Mr. Kaplan’s views of his sub¬ject’s psychological mechanisms areinconsistent, usually far-fetched,and often ludicrous. Shortly afterClemens’ marriage, for example, welearn that his wifehas become an idealized superegowhich frees him from the taint ofadolescent experiments and fron¬tier lawlessness and allows him toexperience a productive tension be¬tween the social order he has be¬come part of and the boyhood reali¬ty he can never leave behind him.... In order to recapture his pasthe must follow a familiar patternof rebirth and become less ratherthan more like his old self.Keen analysis indeed. But consider¬ing that Mr. Kaplan manages to seeall this almost a hundred years af¬ter the fact, I don’t believe it. Ifin such cases one can’t rely onconventional evidence, one canfall back on old standards likeword association: .. . twinship, along with the cognatesubject of claimants of all sorts,also offered Clemens an enormous¬ly suggestive if misleadingly sim¬ple way of objectifying the steadilydeepening sense of internal conflictand doubleness which is suggestedby the two sets of near homonyms:Twain twins and Clemens claim¬ants . . .I leave to the reader to find outwhat happens when Mr. Kaplan ap¬plies his associational logic to MarkTwain’s works. For a start, you canimagine what he goes through toconnect Heidelberg, Hartford, Had-leyburg and Huckleberry Finn. Theanswer won’t tell you much abouteither Twain or his novel, but it’sa lot of fun if you like crosswordpuzzles.In writing the biography of agreat humorist, Mr. Kaplan has la¬bored under the special handicap ofa somber mind. You don’t have toread very much of, say, RoughingIt to realize that you have encoun¬tered one of the world’s biggestliars, and that all of Twain’s auda¬ cious exaggerations have to be tak¬en with a boulder of salt. Of courseMr. Kaplan sees through the mosttransparent lies, but the more sub¬tle exaggerations, the little distor¬tions of personal experience whichmake a better story, the differencebetween a slightly fictionalized ver¬sion and the real thing—these oftenslip by Mr. Kaplan and are present¬ed as fact. When Twain wrote thatBret Harte was “a liar, a thief, aswindler, a snob, a sot, sponge, acoward, a Jeremy Diddler, he isbrim full of treachery, and concealshis Jewish birth as if he consideredit a disgrace”. Mr. Kaplan does notnote that Twain often let himselfloose with the friend (Howells) towhom he was writing, and that theexuberence of such exaggeration of¬ten carried Twain far beyond histrue feelings.Moreover, we learn next tonothing about Twain’s intellectualdevelopment as influenced by hisreading and thinking. Twain had ideas which grew, flourished anddied as regularly as did his publish¬ing house; he built imaginative andintellectual constructs just as hebuilt his Hartford mansion. But de¬spite the fact that Twain was almostconstantly reading in his spare timefrom the time he started out as aprinter’s apprentice, Mr. Kaplan’sbiography gives no hint that booksplayed a significant part in Twain’slife. And the omission does notHere Mr. Kaplan has simply notdone his job.I can’t say it’s unfortunate thatMr. Kaplan wrote his book, but Iwish he hadn’t swept the field withsuch a poor biography. But then, areally fine biography wouldn’t haveall of Mr. Kaplan’s nice racy apocry¬phal incidents. Maybe that’s whatthe National Book Award is allabout.Edward HearneMr. Hearne is a second-year graduatestudent in the department of Englishat The University of Chicago.Die Gedanken Sind Frei(Continued from page six)horrors. The prosecution of Bok hasa certain life within the pre-Revolutionary politics, and we aremade to take sides in the battleover the little Jew.Moreover, we are deeply con¬cerned about Bok’s physical fate. Incommon with other “trial” novels,The Fixer builds up considerablesuspense during Bok’s interrogationand imprisonment. As a Jew ac¬cused of a truly heinous crime, Bokis subjected to the kind of priva¬tions and indignities we associatewith Nazi death-camps. The glaringlight focuses sharply on these ex¬tended passages, so that we, too,suffer almost intolerable agonies offear, pain and ignominy.But surprisingly enough, wecome to care less about Russia as awhole and Bok’s physical tormentsthan about what is happening toBok internally. His spiritual revolu¬tion dominates the novel so com¬pletely in the end that we are satis¬fied even though we never find out“what happens.”In the beginning, Bok is a smallman, almost Chaplinesque. Poor,cuckolded, abandoned, his is a pa¬thetic voice whimpering against theinconveniences of Tsarist Russia.He is alone and content to be leftso. He wants nothing but a job tofree his hands from idleness — hedesires no human companionship,no warmth, no love. Ironically, thefirst step in the train of concidencewhich brings Bok to his doom isbrought on by disinterested love: al¬most by accident, for the most partunwillingly, he rescues a leader ofthe “Black Hundreds” (that’s Rus¬sian for Ku Klux Klan) from freez¬ing to death.But as he is caught in the circum¬stance which trap him and physical¬ly isolated from all human life, Bokbegins to change. Slowly the littlefixer begins to value others’ lives,to understand his old friends andrelatives. His concern builds to¬wards a superbly understated cli¬ max where Bok finds it in himselfto legitimize his estranged wife’sbastard son.The psychological paradox ofBok’s external alienation and inter¬nal involvement rests, oddlyenough, upon a philosophical para¬dox. Early in the novel - during hisinterrogation - Bok recounts Spino¬za’s antinomy on the problem offreedom:“. . . (Spuioza) was out to make afree man of himself - as much asone can according to his philoso¬phy, if you understand my meaning- by thinking things through andconnecting everything up.“H you understand that a man’smind is part of God, then you un¬derstand it as well as I. In thatway you’re free, if you’re in themind of God. Bf you’re there youknow H. Ait the same time the trou¬ble is that you are bound down byNature ... There’s also somethingcalled Necessity, which is alwaysthere though nobody wants it, thatone has to push against.’*“If a man is bound to Necessitywhere does freedom come from?’*“That’s in your thought, yourhonor, if your thought is in God.That’s if you believe in this kind ofGod, that’s if you reason it out. It’sas though a man fillies over his ownhead on the wings of reason, orsome such thing. You join the uni-verse and forget your worries.”“Do you believe that one can befree that way?”“Up to a point,” Yakov sighed.~‘It sounds fine but my experienceis limited.’*Freedom to love, freedom toknow the truth, and, at last, free¬dom to hate. Bok’s is not the hatredof a brute, but that of personifiedJustice. In a dreamlike sequenceright at the novel’s strangely mov¬ing denouncement, Bok confrontsTsar Nicholas himself, this timeBok is the accuser, Bok is no longersmall and pathetic, but majestic inthe power of his mind. The haltingwords are the little handyman’s, butbehind the ironic turn of phrase, thevoice has resonant mastery:“Excuse me, your Majesty, butwhat suffering has taught me is theuselessness of suffering. Anywaythere’s enough of that to live withnaturally without piling a mountainof injustice on top. Rachmones, wesay in Hebrew, mercy, one oughtn’tto forget it, but one must also think how oppressed, ignorant andmiserable most of us are in thiscountry.. . You had your chancesand you pissed them away. . . Your poor bo*y is a haemophi¬liac, something missing in theblood. In you, in spite of certainsentimental feelings, it is missingsomewhere else—the sort of in¬sight, you might call it, that ere.ates in a man charity, respect forthe most miserable. You say youare kind and prove it with pogromsAs for history, Yakov thought,there are ways to reverse it. Whatthe Tsar deserves is a bullet in thegut. Better him than us.I began by comparing The Fixerto The Brothers Karamazov, and.inevitably, I must end by repudiat¬ing the comparison. The Fixer is abig book, but not that big a book,not by a long shot. The Fixer is notpetty, but it fades when placed nextto the really great psychologicaland philosophical novels of our erabecause, ultimately, it is narrow.First, it is too closely tied to thereligion and nationality of its hero.Secondly, The Fixer’s confinedscene and single line of action al¬lows little scope for opposing view¬points, so the novel rests upona single developing argument,not a debate. But most impor¬tant, Bok is narrow himself. Thoughhe grows enormously in staturethroughout the novel, he began asan insect and ends as a man;Dostoyevsky’s world is populated byangelic and demonic creatures inhuman dress, drawn far larger thanlife.Shall we complain bitterly,though, if we have not been pre¬sented with another Brothers Kara¬mazov? Malamud cops out, but onlyat the very highest level. I hadthought Malamud was blithely set¬tled in his groove, but there is nodoubt about it, he has begun toform artistic conceptions whichreach towards the very heights. Heis not yet old; he has time to attainthem.Richard L.

From one point of view, itseems that if the University in¬tends to resist appeals for formal¬ization of student participation indecision making, i.e. “studentpower,” it will have to 1) keepalive informal channels for stu¬dent representation and informa¬tion, which Lemisch seems to rep¬resent, and 2) not produce blatantaffronts to student feelings thatshould at least be understandable.Graduate students need great re¬searchers in their professors, bidundergraduates need good in¬structors, and while I’m personal¬ly flattered that the University isthinking so much in terms ofgraduate values, I’m not underthe delusion that those values arefor anyone else. If Lemisch issuch a popular instructor, he de¬serves to remain for that alone.‘Hie alternative to the so-called“democratic university,” which alot of us don’t find appealing, isnot the “feudalized university,”no more attractive.At the same time, before state¬ments of this kind can be madewith confidence, we need to knowif there is a mass reaction to hisleaving or just by a few powerfulstudents, whether or not realchannels for redress exist andhave been ignored, for whichthere are strong indications, andjust what Lemisch’s role has beenin actively encouraging SDS as anoisy lobby in order to make acause celebre and force the uni¬versity to retain him, which is in¬credible behavior if true.I take your own columns to con¬gratulate you on your stand be-Why Can’t YouControl YourMemory ?A noted publisher in Chicago re¬ports there is a simple tech¬nique for acquiring a powerfulmemory which can pay you realdividends in both business andsocial advancement and workslike magic to give you addedpoise, necessary self-confidenceand greater popularity.According to this publisher,many people do not realize howmuch they could influenceothers simply by rememberingaccurately everything they see,hear, or read.

The major problem of an Oc¬tober start was that important ad¬vertising commitments were outof the picture.

I.Thomas: On Social Organizationand Social Personality, SelectedPapers, edited, with an excellentintroduction to Thomas and thegreat “Chicago school” of sociolo¬gy, by Morris Janowitz (Universi¬ty of Chicago Press, $7.50 and$2.95 in paper), with the aboveinformation “dropped” at thephysical production, and naturallyit was impossible to tell that thearticle was about a book. It wouldbe a shame if such an absurd rea¬son caused interested people tomiss this introduction to a greatman (and great UC professor)too little known today.I so hope we can resurrect oth¬er next fall, in an expanded for¬mat, and once again provide a fo¬rum to a diversity of local voices.For those who have asked, the“conservatism’’ that was inferredfrom a number of articles appear¬ing in other did not represent theeditor’s position. I am not nowand have never been an AdamSmith and/or Milton Friedmanliberal; I think the idea of a mer¬cenary military can charitably bedescribed as “vile,” and I’mcrazy about fluoridation.Thanks very much for the spaceand let’s see more of Richter andAiken.TOM BLAUEDITOR, OTHER The Richter ColumnTO THE EDITOR:David Richter’s article, styledin an abortive Kerouac-Salinge-resque fashion, arouses a sense ofoutrage in my (albeit) youthfulemotions. If the enlightened Hip¬pie cannot find it within his intel¬lectual powers to step down a fewlevels and try to communicate areasonably simple concept tosomeone else besides another Hip¬pie; yes, even to a corn belt hick,he ought to turn in his beads.

I was mentionedtwice in that article, yet you-r re¬porter made no attempt to con¬tact me (or any other I.H.C. sup¬porter, it seems) to “balance”what he wrote.First of aM, you said LowerFlint is not represented in I.H.C.This is a lie. I am a duly electedLower Flint I.H.C. representativeand have been serving in that ca¬pacity since October.Secondly, the charge that “AlanBloomdom has spread from SG”made by Mr. Wald of Tufts Houseand quoted by you is absurd. Al¬though much time was wasted atthe last meeting on parliamentarytrivia, this was done mainly by afew Pierce Tower representatives(including Mr. Wald). If anything,I (and most of the other I.H.C.members) have always tried tospeed up the nonessential parts ofthe meeting, but we have oftenbeen hindered by many of thesame people who are our so-called critics. Your greatest injustice, howev¬er, was not against me personallybut against the Inter-House Coun¬cil as a whole. You seemed to in¬dicate that the I.H.C. was break¬ing up. If this is so, then why are23 of the 25 university houses stillmembers of it? Why does theI.H.C. continue to get large quorums at its meetings? The reasonfor these facts is simple: althoughthe Maroon feels the I.H.C. has nouse, the people who live in theHouses seem to feel quite differ¬ently. The Inter-House Councilhas critics (your newspaper hasthem too) and it needschanging—we all agree with this—but it will continue to exist be¬cause the people in the Houseshave learned that only by workingtogether for common goals canthe dorms be made better placesto live.ALAN BLOOMTAl-SAM-VMfCHIN Ml.

But the Blackfriars emphasize that it’s an old show, adaptedby George Abbott in 1938 from an even older play, Shakespeare’s The Comedy of Errors,which is itself derived from aneven older play, Plautus’s M«n-aechmi, written in the third centu¬ry B.C. More important, the cele¬bratory quality of The Boys fromSyracuse epitomizes the traditionalspirit of Blackfriars.AND BLACKFRIARS, as its for¬mer Abbot Allen Bond said in 1940,is “grey and hoary with tradition.” |As Blackfriar Charles Warnertruthfully observes in the programfor Mr. Cinderella (1929), the very'names of its officers (Abbot, Prior, ]Hospitaler and Scribe) “gave theimpression of ancient dust and cob- jwebs” even on that first winter dayit was founded in 1904. But moreimportant than the formal organi¬zational conventions passed onfrom generation to generation isthe preservation of the spirit, soexuberantly expressed in the pro¬gram notes to the first production,The Passing of Pahli Khan:Building on the principle thatpeople would rather laugh thanmourn, rather joy than mope,men in the University of Chica¬go have organized the “Black¬friars,” a comic opera club . ..to furnish amusement for itsown members and ... for thepublic . . . the surest way ofgetting joy is by dispersing alittle joy to others ... In short,the “Blackfriars” have beenorganized seriously for the sakeof creating foolishness.This spirit — the belief in the ther¬apeutic value of laughter, the joyin a happy ending—seems to per¬vade Blackfriars’ productions from• The Passing of Pahli Khan” to thepresent.Although Blackfriars' membershave tended to shy away from theharshly cynical, the entertainmentwhich they produce does not in¬volve an escape from intellect intothe world of mindless rubbish, forBlackfriars’ shows are character¬ized by the wit which goes intotheir foolishness. Robert Maynard Hutchins, former Chancellor of the.University of Chicago, said in theprogram for Patients, Please,(1940), that Blackfriarsrepresents one of the mostcherished principles of our de- jmocracy. The performance weare now to see and hear shouldtherefore bring us a feeling of ireverence for the freedom ofspeech which, if we may judgefrom previous performances, itwill exercise to the utmost.As Hutchins’s statement implies,;whatever the “foolishness” the var-;ious Blackfriars’ wits achieve, se-jlection of subject matter and crea-;tion of dialogue is a completely un-1inhibited process. More significant,; this freedom is traditionally ex¬pressed in a satirical strain run-!ning through Blackfriars’ merrymelodies, echoing a joyous themein a minor key.MOST TIMES, THE satire isfrivolous, as in The Pranks of Pap- Irika (1913).a parody of Viennese joperettas set in Spain, Silver Bellsand Cockle Shells (1960), about what■ happens when a real witch becomesinvolved in Hollywood's filming ofi Sleeping Beauty, and The Road toDunsinane (1964), a parody of,Shakespeare’s ‘ Macbeth.” In the ipast Blackfriars’ satire was fre-1fluently used to deride aspects ofcollege life, as in The Student Supe¬rior (1914) which examined campusactivities and Anybody's Girl(1922), which ridiculed campus!; snobbery. Though primarily comic |entertainment, other shows con¬tained satirical elements worthy ofserious consideration: In BrainsWe Trust (1935) is a satirical treat¬ment of the brain drain on college |i campuses by Washington; Fascistand Furious (1936) burlesques fas-!cist and communist revolutionary jactivities in colleges, making the!custodial staff the instigators of the jrebellion; and Aside from All That,j (1963) parodies class conflict inEngland. But behind even the more ! serious Blackfriars plays is the ba¬sic affirmation of life which gavelife to the organization itself overhalf a century ago.To be sure Blackfriars has under¬gone some changes since 1904. Dur¬ing the Second World War, the or¬ganization disbanded, and did nottake life again until 1956, when, forthe first time, membership was of¬fered to women. The new Black¬friars, without the ten to fifteenthousand dollar a year resources ithad before the War, had to be moreresourceful in other ways. Besidesperforming in the shows, studentshad to assume the positions of pro¬ducer, musical director, choreogra¬pher, scenic designer, costume de¬signer and musician, formerly heldby professionals.NONE OF THESE modifications,however, is substantial enough toaffect the force behind the produc¬tions, the desire of “doffing cowland gown ... to be the clowns insportive play,” to hear “gay laugh¬ter ... mirth and fun”—sentiments expressed in Black¬friars’ song from 1913. On the nexttwo weekends, April 28-9 and May5-6, Blackfriars is presenting TheBoys from Syracuse in MandelHall, where the first Blackfriars’show was performed sixty-threeyears ago this May. The choruslines will not feature Chicago’sfootball team, not only becausemembership to Blackfriars is nowco-ed, but because Chicago no long¬er has a football team. Real girlshave replaced their hairy-leggedsubstitutes. But the long Black¬friars’ tradition of producing hu¬mor still thrives.Joseph H. AaronConnecticut MutualLife Insurance Protection135 S.

We take the time to make it so, because we take pride in tailoringthe component to our customer's needs. If one is considering an entiresystem, price, interest, and taste are all factors to be weighed. The selec¬tion of a single component can be even more involved. Take tape record¬ers: Voice, music, or both? Battery operation? Foot pedal for transcrip¬tion purposes? Synchronization for film? Stereo or mono? Will the machinebe used in conjunction with a system? What is in the system, and are anychanges planned for that system?Because a typewriter generally lasts a lifetime, the selection process shouldalso be most personal: Electric or manual? Portable or standard? What sizetype? Which style? How long should the carriage be? Proportional spac¬ing? What about special characters—diacritical marks, mathematical sym¬bols, perhaps a section sign for legal writing.

Because of this emphasis,the events planned may not seemas exciting or varied as in the past.Nevertheless, they are worthwhile.!Basically we ask for students togive us a chance, to have enoughfaith to participate.” IN CONJUNCTION with the Fes-tial, the UC Concert Band willpresent a concert today, at 12:30 inHutchinson Court.

Burtongingerly coaxes all the petals to 1one side, makes a sour face, andthen forsakes the bath entirely. Butthen, if anyone should give a reli¬able and lusty performance of Pe-truchio—we could expect as muchfrom Burton. He has all the equip¬ment for this role.As for the others—let me just say“well done.” I couldn’t catch a ,flaw, and found many imaginative!touches bo be pleased with—such as !the expansive blonde whore, who iseven greater because she paradedtlirough the streets on 10” stilts.ABOUT THOSE inevitable com¬plaints: ‘‘It isn’t a movie, it’s aplay and should be kept on the1stage”; and the purists who gettouchy when a director takes “lib¬erties” with dear old Will.

The Shrew is indeed amovie—and the movie is what musthave raced through Will’s imagina¬tion when he created it.The Taming of The Shrew isquick, wild, personal drama. It wasnot meant to be ponderous andstudied. Its potential absolutelycannot be realized on the stage.Even if it were physically possiblefor actors to sustain the emotionalhiatus, demanded they are nonethe-;less trapped, suffocated, and isolat¬ed by the boards.The film knows no such bounda¬ries, After five minutes you have |already forgotten that you are lis- S the Women’s Physica, Education DOCfillllS Will PrCVieW 1 5 Feattll* FlIlHSDepartment.
