(For The Maroon's opinion on pulchritude, see editorial on Page4.)VOL. 76, NO. 33 CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 13, 1968 8 PAGESChicago ReceivesHalf Million in ArtMr. and Mrs. Joel Starrels ofChicago have arranged to give theUniversity a $500,000 art collection,President Beadle will announce to¬day.The collection includes over 200paintings, sculptures and litho¬graphs, together with a number ofrare books on art and severalpieces of marble furniture.Among them are paintings byRoualt and Matisse, and about 80sculptures by artists such as De¬gas, Lipchitz, and Moore.The collection will move into theDavid and Alfred Smart Gallerywhen it is completed sometime in1970. The gallery will be part ofthe new Center for the Arts, onthe northwest corner of 56th St.and Greenwood Ave., adjoining thesite of the “student village” hous¬ing complex.The collection will be named the“Joel Starrels, Jr., Art Collection,”in memory of their son, a BeverlyHills attorney who died last year.The younger Starrels attended theCollege and in 1950 received a J.D.from the Law School.Art Department EnthusiasticProfessors in the Art Departmentexpressed great enthusiasm overthe gift. Harrie A. Vanderstappen,chairman of the Department,called the Starrels Collection “amarvelous group of works. Thiscollection is vital to our programs.”Joshua Taylor, Willieam RaineyHarper professor in humanities,said the collection is “somethingthat can become a very integralpart of our program here.”The Starrels had already com¬mitted several works by the Brit¬ish sculptor Henry Moore to theArt Institute of Chicago, Taylor said, but the great bulk of the col¬lection will go to Chicago.Starrels Sr., a member of theChicago Board of Trade since 1924,is a benefactor of the Art Institute.Starrels said that when he heardof the plans for the Smart Gallery,“we immediately decided to offerour collection to the University.“We hope that this also will in¬spire others to help in buildingwhat we believe is an importantnew cultural asset for the city ofChicago.”Graduate students in art fromtime to time will be able to studythe collection in the Starrels Chi¬cago apartment until the SmartGallery is completed, according toTaylor.‘Rich in Sculpture’Taylor says the collection is“particularly rich in sculpture.”Besides sculptures by the familiarartists Degas, Lipchitz and Moore,there are works by the Englishabstractionist sculptor Barber Hep- worth, an associate of HenryMoore’s.There are also sculptures by Ger¬maine Richier, whose works aredescribed by Taylor as bizarre.“They are strange headless vege¬table shapes,” he says, “whichhave a wonderful groping sense.”Represented among the paintersis Mario Sironi, a major Italianartist between the wars, whoseworks, Taylor says, appearstrangely archeological, as thoughthey had been dug up. Sironi’spaintings are “figurative, strong,monumental, and moody,” Tayloradds.Other buildings included in thecomplex, which was announcedearly last academic year, are theCochrane-Woods Art Center; amusic building including auditoriaand practice rooms; and the Cor-inne Frada Pick Theater.The Starrels gift is part of Chi¬cago’s three-year $160 million Cam¬paign for Chicago.SDS To Protest IDA InvolvementStudents for a DemocraticSociety has announced it will holda protest against the Institute forDefense Analysis (IDA) this after¬noon to coincide with a meeting ofthe Council of the University Sen¬ate.At this meeting the report of theGoldsmith committee investigatingthe University’s relationship withIDA will be presented to theCouncil.The protest is to begin at 3 p.m.in front of Business East, wherethe Council meeting will take place.If the weather is cold, the protestis expected to move inside.SDS hopes for a showing of about 200 people who will wait in Busi¬ness East until the Council meet¬ing is adjourned. The protest willinclude picketing, a speech by SDSmember Miles Mogelescu, and thereading of a congressional speechabout IDA.SDS had requested either thatthe meeting be open or that stu¬dents be permitted as spokesmenor observers. These requests weredenied by Secretary of the Univer¬sity Senate Charles O’Connell.Mogelescu charged that since theCouncil of the Senate is not ex¬pected to make a decision on thereport today, it is stalling on thequestion. The Maroon — DAVID TRAVISODD COINCIDENCE: The Midway Hotel is one of many buildingsslated for demolition that have gone up in smoke. Plaisance Hotel,housing several students, is at left.Students Force To FleeAs Midway Hotel BurnsAn estimated 200 persons tem¬porarily fled their homes during afire in the Midway Hotel earlySunday morning. Most of the refu¬gees were Chicago students fromthe Plaisance Hotel, a University-owned building at 1543 E. 60th St.,and elderly Woodlawn residents.The Plaisance was not seriouslydamaged by the fire, although itwas strong enough to warrant asecond alarm to be issued. Accord¬ing to Lawrence Berg, manager ofthe Plaisance, the only damageoccured when smoke and waterseeped into the building from thehotel next door.According to David Aiken of TheMaroon and The Chicago Sun-Times, there were actually twofires in the Midway. One of theseoccurred Saturday at around 5p.m., while the next one wasspotted around 6 a.m. Sunday byBerg, who reported it to the FireDepartment.Aiken, who lives nearby the Ho¬tel, cited two possible sources ofthe fire: either it was set by van¬ dals or vagrants seeking to staywarm, or it was set by demolitioncompanies.Accepted Practice?The Midway was condemnedand vacant and its burning cameas no surprise to long-time resi¬dents of the neighborhood. Onestudent said, “It seems to be theaccepted practice for buildings inWoodlawn to burn between thetime they are vacated and thetime they are demolished.”Berg agreed. “Before they de¬molished those buildings, we hadfour or five fires in the buildingssouth of us. That’s the way theydo it: when the buildings are va¬cant and ready for demolition.“I don’t know who’s in cahootswith whom. . .”Berg implied that the demolitioncompanies were attempting tosave costs by destroying buildingsalready slated for demolition.According to the Fire Depart¬ment, firemen reached the sceneat 6:30 a.m. and declared the fireunder control by 10:30 a.m.Unlv. of Chicago LibrarySerial Rec* Dept*Harper M22ii, 60637 u. s.

There was abelief the American community hadenough people- of good will in itand that this decision would per¬form a kind of moral rearmament.It didn’t.” He quoted reports thatshowed integration in Americanschools had not improved markedly | since 1954.To solve the inequality betweenrich suburban and poor inner cityschools, Kurland urged that pres¬sure “should be put on the statelegislature, the state executive, thenational legislature ...” instead ofa decision emanating from theCourt.Levi predicted that if the situa¬tion was not remedied, “By1980, of the 20 largest cities in theUnited States, with the exception ofLos Angeles, more than 51 per centof the population will be Negro, which is not serious. But that popu¬lation will have, as to 45 per centof them, incomes of $3,000 a yearand less ...

Booth. Inmild to strong terms, graduates ofthe Class of 1967 asked for the re¬tention of general educationcourses as they knew them, withthe most praise being to the His¬tory of Western Civilization and themost criticism reserved for the lan¬guage courses.The letters were received in ans¬wer to a request by Booth for in¬formation about how the graduatesfelt about the College after an ab¬sence of six months. “How do youfeel about the general education re¬ quirements How does your majorfield look to you? Which teachsrsseem to you to have been mosthelpful?” and other questions wereamong those asked by Booth thatdrew the largest response.Western Civ ApprovedWestern Civ drew unamimouslyfavorable replies. “By far the bestcourse I took in the College. Isaved it for my last year; it wasa great way to finish.”Another student wrote: “The onlyway the latter (Western Civ) couldbe destroyed would be to burndown our entire Western heritage,and Mr Weiniraub (Karl J. Wein-traub, Thomas E. Donnelley As¬sociate professor of history) alongwith it.” Weintraub was not the onlyteacher to win praise, however. “Ihad heard many students speak ofMr. Mackauer (Christian W. Mack-auer, William Rainey Harper prof¬essor emeritus of history); conse¬quently I made it a point to sit inhis class. It was an experience Iwill not soon forget. Western Civwill always be associated in mymind with this extraordinary man.”Comments on the teaching oflanguage at Chicago were consider¬able less flattering. Several respon¬dents felt that, while elementaryFrench taught reading well enough,it was at the expense of writingand speaking the language.Gen Ed UsefulIt was the notion of abolishingStagg Field II Work Begins in Spring general education courses thatcame in for the heaviest attacks.Said one graduate: “More thansix months out of college I meas¬ure the lasting results in the follow¬ing terms:• An unquenchable curiosity in awide range of subjects;• The ability to reason effectively;• Familiarity with a fundamentalbody of knowledge; and• Self discipline and awareness.”The author attributed the firstthree characteristics to the gener¬al education courses. Another stu¬dent, in commenting upon thechange to the “common core” fromthe older gen ed sequence said.“Idon’t like it.”He continued: “It channels peo¬ple off into different sections en¬tirely too quickly, and makes it harder to change over from pro¬gram to program; if not materiallyat least psychologically ....“It doesn’t seek out and fillin the student’s weak points in hisgeneral background as well as theold ten-subject placement test usedto.”Another student viewed gen edfrom a different perspective. “Ithink that for me those courses didfulfill the purpose of teaching meenough about a field so I couldlater read general material aboutit with some understanding.”MOST COMPLETE PHOTCAND HOBBY STORE OrTHE SOUTH SIDEMODEL CAMERA13-42 E. 55 HY J-925-.Student DiscountsConstruction of a new Stagg |Field will begin this spring, withcompletion scheduled for the fallof 1968, according to a speech byWalter L.

There will also be abaseball diamond, east of thetrack, for intercollegiate varsitygames.Completion Date QuestionedSome of the coaches are con¬cerned that the track will not be ,finishzd on schedule. One of the Imajor problems seems to be aquestion of whether to seed thenew track or to sod it, becausewhen the soccer and footballteams work out, the surface of thenew field will receive a beating.Haydon was not worried aboutthe completion date, however.

David E. GumpertDaniel HertzbergEditor Emeritus David A. SatterHo HumThe Festival of the Arts (FOTA) died a particularlyquiet, almost completely unremarked death sometime thisquarter. (It was so quiet no one knows exactly when itwas.) The cause of death was not lack of money. This is,after all, a very rich University, and money had alreadybeen appropriated. Neither was the cause lack of talent.This is also, we are told, a very good University.No, the cause was lack of interest. FOTA died be¬cause not enough people were interested in emergingfrom their grey Hyde Park holes to extend themselvesenough to organize a festival to bring together a fewartists for films and plays and concerts.Presumably there would have been interest enough,once the festival had been organized. The UniversityTheater has been sold out for every production this quar¬ter, and Doc Films is jam packed three times a week.There would have been plenty of people around toconsume a Festival of the Arts when it was on its feet:they were simply too busy to produce it.They were too busy getting into graduate school.Too busy writing a masters thesis so they can begin ona doctorate. Too busy lining up a teaching post in thegreat outside world.They were too busy sitting in their holes, complain¬ing about the lack of community around the University.Complaining about the bookstore (though the Bookstoreis having trouble finding student consultants to advisethem on what books to get.) Complaining about the curri¬culum (though no one showed up last week at meeting todiscuss changes in the Social Science curriculum). Com¬plaining about the lack of a forum for student expression(though the quasi-official student literary magazine, Phoe¬nix, is moribund because of lack of contributions).And so FOTA dies. And four freshmen edit the sen¬ior year book. And everyone makes plans to go home dur¬ing the break for the Liberal Arts Conference. Ho hum.GratitudeJust as we are begin to concede each February thatthe sterile, etherialized, academic atmosphere that per¬vades this campus really IS all that exists in the world,the Wash Prom committee comes along each year to re¬affirm the basic carnality of man. To be sure, in this, thehaven of intellectuality, the lascivious are forced to takerefuge in vicarious or outwardly respectable pleasure.But no matter how well masked, the essence cannotbe hidden. Vibrant, pulsating, and slyly erotic, those sixpersonifications of pure maidenhood in flower bring outthe dirty old man in countless students who had long ago'given up their Playboy for Aristotle.And so, for countless drooling males who will spendlong hours of solitary pleasure as they contemplate thosesuggestive forms, The Maroon would like to express itsheartfelt gratitude to the Wash Prom for resurrecting (orshould we say erecting) the ancient, pagan spirit of St.Valentine’s Day. And for the ambitious who find the vicar¬ious unsatisfying, we can only repeat the spirit in whichthis and all elections are held: vote, and the choice isyours; don’t vote, and the choice is theirs. The University's IDA Ties:A Sorry Political StatementThe Committee of the Council ofthe University Senate has post¬poned deciding on the University’srelationship with the Institute forDefense Analyses (IDA). The typeof work done by IDA—devisingmethods for U.S. troops to use onrevolutionary movements abroadand on student and ghetto upris¬ings at home—should by now befairly well known. That the Uni¬versity would unquestioningly ac¬cept such contracts is a sorrystatement of its politics.But there is far more to the IDAcontracts than that. The questionof government intrusion on thecampus can no longer be ignoredon any less than a strict morallevel. Recent disclosure that thegovernment had infiltrated eventhe prestigious Institute for SocialResearch at the University ofMichigan should serve as a shock¬ing reminder as to just whoseagency IDA is. One facet of theCIA infiltration of Michigan wasstrictly for the purpose of keepingtabs on student and faculty activ¬ism—no euphemisms of basic re¬search. no “research for defense,”just manipulation and control ofthe citizenry, plain and simple.THOSE WHO argue “Michigan always was a big research school”miss the point—the only reasonthe Michigan disclosure stands outis because of its aggressive stu¬dent newspaper. CIA/governmentinfiltration of the purely manipula¬tive sort must now be consideredthe rule rather than the exceptionof daily life in the university.Indeed, it is often argued thatprivate research is generally moreefficient than that done at univer¬sities, and that the main purposeof the extremely widespread gov¬ernment-university grants is to in¬sure a bond between Washingtonand as many universities aspossible.This is clearly an intolerable sit¬uation. Unless our universities areindependent from all governmentpresence they can no longer beconsidered free, and a universitythat is not free is not worth hav¬ing, is indeed a detriment to theestablishment of a free society. Ifthis University is unable to freeitself from a so obviously manipu¬lative and reactionary agency asthe Institute for Defense Analysesthen where, indeed, is it going tostart?• • •Despite the general uselessness of the McCarthy “peace” cam¬paign, it has served the functionof bringing out the best in theJohnson administration. McCar¬thy, who is running on LBJ’s 1964platform and who has presentedno ideological opposition to U.S.presence in Vietnam, is facingLBJ forces first in New Hamp¬shire. There administration forceshave been handing out numbered“pledge cards” for registeredDemocrats to sign and to returnto the state machine files and theWhite House, showing that theywill, in fact, write-in the Pres¬ident’s name on the March 12ballot.To cap the Johnson drive for re-election, LBJ’s New HampshireGovernor John W. King has beentelling the voters it would be “un¬patriotic” for Democrats not tovote for the President. “They’vegot a little list, and you better notbe missed,” goes the song.(Editor’s note: Mr. Wasser-man, a first-year student in theDepartment of History, was aneditor on The Michigan Dailyand currently is a correspon¬dent for Collegiate Press Serv¬ice.)MICHAEL SEIDMANUniversity Interview Policy:Easily Biased, UnnecessaryNow that tempers have cooledafter last year’s admissions con¬troversy, the time has come totake a hard and dispassionatelook at Chicago’s admissionsprocedure.One year ago this month, theadmissions committee was begin¬ning its consideration of one ofthe many applicants interviewedby then Director of Admissionsand Aid Charles D. O’Connell. Abitter controversy began threemonths later when a member ofthat committee leaked the con-ents of O' Connell’s interview re¬port which allegedly indicatedpolitical discrimination in consid¬eration of the candidate.At this late date, it is not ofmuch relevance whether or notone particular candidate was dis¬criminated against. But what con¬tinues to be of vital importanceis whether or not the admissionsprocedure is systematically un¬fair to applicants. Specifically, astudy should probably be madeto determine whether a personalinterview with the applicant pro¬vides a sufficiently accurate in¬dication of acceptability to be in¬cluded in the admissions proced¬ure.A number of factors suggestthat the interview could easily bedispensed with. Chicago alreadygives considerably less weight tothe interview report than to moreobjective criterion such as the ap¬plication, grades, and boardscores. Moreover, a number ofmajor colleges have already dis¬pensed entirely with the manda¬tory interview, and most gradu¬ate schools seem to be quitesuccessful in choosing applicantswithout a face-toface confron¬tation.SAYING THAT ' Interviews could be easily done away withor that other schools do withoutthem does not, of course, in itselfdemonstrate that they are unfair.But when one examines the na¬ture of the interviewing processas it operates at this and otheruniversities, it becomes appar¬ent that interviews can be unjusteven under the supervision of themost fair-minded interviewer.University of Chicago interview¬ers generally talk to large num¬bers of people each day with onlya few minutes between interviewsto jot down what have to besomewhat haphazard impressionsof the applicants. One does nothave to be a member of SDS con¬vinced that the University is insecret connivance with the estab¬lishment to see how under theseconditions an interviewer mightwrite down an impression of anapplicant which, with a little moreconsideration, he might havekept to himself.MOREOVER, even if we ex¬clude the biases which any inter¬viewer necessarily has and theproblems of making a meaning¬ful evaluation of an applicant inthe few minutes devoted to writ¬ing the reports, there still re¬mains the serious question of howaccurate an indicator even themost objective interview can be.The way a high school senior per¬forms under the extreme pressureof a face-to face interview fre¬quently has little or nothing to dowith his academic capabilities.To be sure, the interviewing ofapplicants does serve a usefulfunction, but it is a function un¬related to admissions. When theapplicant interviews the inter¬viewer instead of the other wayaround, a face-to-face meeting can provide useful informationabout the University—informationthat a prospective student mightnot get from reading the catalog.Under the present system, abouthalf of the average interview isdevoted to such questioning bythe applicant. But because theapplicant is aware that the inter¬view is used for admissions pur¬poses and because he knows thatthe kinds of questions he asks willmake an impression on the inter¬viewer, he is apt to take up histime asking the “proper” ques¬tions while leaving problems thatreally concern him unexplored.AS SUPERINTENDENT ofSchools James Redmond recentlyrecognized in abolishing inter¬views for registered substituteteachers, the interviewing proc¬ess lends itself too easily to cap¬rice, poor judgement and hastydecisions. While other aspects ofthe admission procedure are im¬perfect as well, none of them isquite as susceptible to distortionby a single individual. As the manwho probably knows more aboutadmissions than anyone else inthe University and who himselfwas victimized by a too hasty in¬terview report, Charles O’Connellis the man who should be leadingthe fight against this subjectiveand capricious practice.[he Chicago Maroonounded in 1892.

Theyoung Afro-Americans are get¬ting ulcers trying to devise newschemes of revenge, after hun¬dreds of years of suffering, phys¬ical and mental beatings thatwe’ve suffered in our great coun¬try, America.Some of the white society girlsare trying to pretend that thingsare really the same as they’vealways been and are saying tothemselves, “ignore those dark¬ies, they can’t do anything any¬way.” “The darkies” are gettingendless pleasure out of tauntingthese people with their I-hate-all-whiteys approach.WAKE UP PEOPLE, black andwhite! Its a waste of time foreither group to concentrate onhate plots and to work hard asthe dickens to ignore the chang¬ing surrounddings by stickingtheir noses up in the air and notlooking to either side. WAKE UPYOU FOOLS, THAT’S NOT THEWAY!As a colored girl I’m not reallycondemning my “brothers andsisters” for knocking the samewhite person’s head you or ourpredecessors used to run from;but I can’t help but pity them.That tactic worked a little bit(but for much too short a time,considering the high cost to what¬ever Negro community was inthe fight). Those of us in theknow realize that it’s not goingto work anymore. THAT TACTICIS NOT BLACK POWER, or theway to get it.Certainly one can draw a par¬allel between the American Neg-* FROM PEKING AND HANOI *|MAO TSt TUNG’S "Quotations"* .md On Peoples War,” both^ famous little red books $1.00 *.1HO CHI MINH’S “Prison Diary ’ .75 i* PEKING REVIEW, *5? weeks, air 4 00* VIETNAM COURIER, 26 weeks 5 00 *VIETNAM (lllustr.), 12 months 5.00 I* send payment with order to j* CHINA BOOKS & PERIODICALS *jUS.

Most of the other min¬ority group’s approaches werecompletely different from someof my more militant members’methods. I’m certain that a par¬allel can be drawn between tworeal black powerites — Hatcherand Stokes, and their rise to thetop, in the mist of Hell and Firefrom all angles — and the Jews.COMPARE: Both are just ascool as ever, yet aggressive inwhatever they do. Both are stead¬ily baining, both developed a realtogetherness policy in their res¬pective groups, both stressed aca¬demic education. Both parties re¬alized that to alienate themselvescompletely from other groups, be they white, black, Christian, Prot¬estant, atheist, or whatever,would be their own destruction.By learning, trading valuesand ideas with others, and ac¬cepting a person as a human be¬ing and yet not degrading them¬selves, some of our “true blackpowerites,” Hatcher, Stokes, W.Young, L. Alcindor, Gregg Mor¬ris (Mission Impossible), etc.,already have what you memberswho find pleasure in getting re¬venge, cursing out the nearestwhitey just because he’s white,may never get.Black power, people, is therefor the taking, but not in the waymy sisters in Blackstone Hallchose to get it. Remember, if wewant it we’ve got to be cool, butfirm; or else Uncle Sam will have our wings clipped before we havea chance to set out.PATRICA JAMESIllinois Institute of TechnologyBackscratchingThere are many who suggestthat the University be auto¬nomous from the federal govern¬ment, and that such links as thatwith the Institute for DefenseAnalyses be cut. Autonomy,though, is a two-way street. Ifwe cut our help to the govern¬ment the job will only be halfdone. Government help to usshould also stop for realautonomy.Members of this University aregoing to have to learn a simplelesson: you can’t have your cake and eat it too. If the governmentgives you money, you’re going tohave to give something in return.The only way you can give noth¬ing is to get nothing.Given this situation, the ques¬tion is can we do it. Can a greatUniversity exist without massivefederal funds, and hence “coop¬eration” with the federal govern¬ment. The answer is NO. Suchis the way things are.ALAN BLOOM, ’68Letters to the editors must besigned, although names may bewitheld by request. The Ma¬roon reserves the right to con¬dense without altering mean¬ing.
