Court overturns impeachment, new E&R member;By LISA CAPELLIn the confusion of charge and counter¬charge regarding the operations of theStudent Government (SG) the Student -Faculty Administration (SFA) Court hasbeen summoned to attempt a meditation ofthe various disputes. Their most recentdecision Tuesday night overturned the im¬peachment proceedings of Election andRules committee chairman Ron Davis andestablished three-man arbitration courts toinsure the democratic process of the up¬coming general elections.The introduction to the decision is “Thecourt views this case as most of the casesbefore this court this year, as arising out ofthe essentially political actions of the StudentGovernment Assembly partisans, who useproblems in procedural matters to achievepolitical ends. Therefore, the court hasdecided to act to insure that the maximumpossible democratic process of StudentGovernment is allowed to occur.”The direct intervention of the court inelection proceedures consitutes a departure for the court. The policy up until this timehas been to hand back to the Assembly thesepolitical disputes but the most recent caseprompted the court to intervene. Arbitrationcourts composed of three members will be oncall and have the power to decide disputes onthe spot. Their decision is binding unless thefull court overturns it. Morever, courtmembers have been attending all meetingsconcerning the prosecution of the elections.The last decision was in response to a pleaby Davis that he desired an honest election.In light of the dupious Assembly proceedingsMonday night which unseated Davis, thecourt decided that the elections were theprimary consideration and could be bestserved by reinstating Davis whileestablishing “adequate safequards”.According to Paul Collier, chief justice ofthe SFA court, the Assembly is so befuddledand so mixed up that it would be absurd todecide who was right or who was wrong;besides, it is not the court’s business todecide that. Collier feels that the court has amandate to hold honest elections and in light of the partisan fight going on it had to takeaffirmative action.Codlier’s philosophy revolves around adichotomy of roles, roles he calls Solomonicand Draconian. The former role “looks forthe spirit of what’s going on” and is con¬cerned with the general environment. Thelatter “is a very strict interpretation of therules and the application of absolutepenalities,” commented Collier.The Dra conian interpretation can providea deterrent. Collier cited a meeting Thur¬sday morning where two parties quarreledand Collier and the arbitration court in¬dicated their decision would be harsh. Thetwo quarreling groups went off for hour or soand when they returned the issue was set¬tled.Pat Mayers, another court justice, feels“the court position by virtue of its largerconsitutency is saying you’ve got to worktogether to get out of this bind.”Myers feels the role of the court" iscoalescing or mediating force requiring thecompeting political factions to live up to their larger responsibility to the community.”In general, Collier defines the court’s roleas“set up in my mind as the body to whichstudents and student organization can have ahearing to protect their rights as studentsand as student organizations.”Mayers feels that “we have had to dealwith the in’s and out’s of a tremendous ac¬cumulation of distrust and we have had tofind some way around this accumulation ofdistrust. But the court has been prettyunited. I feel good about the workings of thecourt."As the Maroon went to press, the SFACourt, in a new decision, ruled that theseating of new members of the election andurles committee was invalid.The court, making the decision withouthearing any arguments, cited irregularitieson the part of student government in itsdenial of seats to the three new com¬mitteemen The Court promised to issue afull written opinion next week.Speaking to the plaintiffs, one justice said,“The Court will not babysit for you.”The Chicago MaroonVolume 81, Number 51 The University of Chicago Fridav AdmI 27 1973University may lose $4 million aidBy JEFF ROTHPresident Richard Nixon has repeatedlyinsisted on the need for cutbacks in federalspending, and the budget for fiscal 1973-1974which he proposed several months agoreflected such a philosophy. That budgetincluded major cutbacks in the areas ofhealth, housing and education. If theCongress approves them, the President’sproposa’ ’ stand to cost the University somethree to four million dollars in federal sup¬port, with a million to a million and a half dollars of that loss coming in the area ofstudent aid.The federal budget is presently underconsideration by the Congress, and manyDemocrats are attempting to prevent thecutbacks in programs which they considervital. There is still no indication of when thebudget will eventually be approved or ofwhat its final form will be. Because of this,college aid offices have been forced to baseplans for the upcoming school year onconjecture.

U S District Court Judge RichardMcLaren did not prevent Korshak frominvoking the fifth amendment privilegeagainst self-incrimination, but said the“court has to look at the facts and see if theclaim of the privilege is supported afterexamining the material involved.”Despres told the Maroon that the IRS has’ IHtlllKlllilHIlHHIhhllllllttHMOiillIUl. * t h ’ I n; ‘ • |: I) i j f-c»: 11 * i i c!: \ * v: r I filed a civil suit against Sidney Korshak,brother of the collector, to recover taxes withpenalties. The alderman believes thegovernment action against the com¬mitteeman relates to the IRS suit. Despressaid Korshak and his brother are businesspartners and the IRS is interested in SidneyKorshak’s business taxes.When questioned about the possiblyscandalous and illegal financial dealings ofcity council majority leader Thomas Keane,Despres said that until Keane is indicted he“doubts he will consider himself in muchtrouble.”Also under investigation is John (Bunny)East, Republican Committeeman for thefifth ward. The federal grand jury hassubpoenaed his list of precinct captains,along with those of several other com¬mitteeman (including Marshall Korshak) inits investigation of vote fraud. “This is the first year to my knowledge thatwe on April 15 do not have one word fromWashington as to what we can offer studentsin the College in the way of federalassistance for next year.”The Nixon budget affects a variety offinancial aid programs for undergraduates.The Supplementary Educational Op¬portunity Grant (SEOG) program, whichprovides grants of up to a thousand dollarsper year for students from low incomefamilies, has been completely eliminated.SEOG has been replaced with a programcalled Basic Educational Opportunity Grants(BEOG). BEOG is scheduled to use $622million of the $896 million proposed for Officeof Education Student Aid Programs. Thenew program has been highly touted by theAdministration as a means whereby everystudent in the country would be eligible forgrants of up to $1400 per year, if he metthe guidelines. The only difficulty is thatunder the proposed guidelines most studentswould be ineligible.Under Administration guidelines, theactual amount of a BEOG grant would be$1400 minus the expected family contributionor half the cost of the student’s education,whichever is greater. “Expected familycontribution” includes student earningsalong with parental contribution. Parentalcontribution would be determined differentlythan aid offices normally do so. According toO’Connell BEOG as proposed would “help thereal poverty ease but that’s about all.”He has recommended that the guidelinesbe altered to eliminate what he considersinadequacies in the program. Student socialsecurity benefits should be included withfamily income when parental contribution isdetermined, and not designated as studentincome. This is necessary because at lowincome levels the family generally dependson the student’s benefits to cover livingexpenses. The guidelines should also bechanged, he urged, to permit greaterflexibility in the treatment of family assets,to take differences in the cost of living indifferent parts of the country into con¬sideration, and to permit an appealprocedure for the student.At O’Connell’s request, Fred Brooks,Director of College Aid, made a study of theeffects a change from SEOG to BEOG wouldhave on 20 students in the College currentlyreceiving the Educational OpportunityGrants. Of the 20, 10 would be ineligible forany assistnace at all, 6 would be eligible forawards averaging $250 below the grants theycurrently receive, and only 4 would beeligible for the full $1400.Brooks estimated that the switch inprograms would lose $60,000 in EducationalOpportunity Grant funds alone ifBrooks estimated that the switch in programs would lose the University $60,000in Educational Opportunity Grant fundsalone if the BEOG is accepted as proposedCurrently, the federal government provides$121,840 in such funds for 187 students in theColiege. “If the BEOG replaces SEOG thatwill primarily hurt low income familieswhich are very dependent on Social Securitybenefits, children of small farmers, andsmall businessmen,” Brooks stated.The old Supplementary Educational Op¬portunity Grant program has been criticizedbecause its effects are limited to familiescontinued on page threeSeniors to speakat convocationPresident Edward Levi has accepted a setof recommendations from the Committee ofthe College Council that will permit studentsto speak at the June Convocation. At thesame time he reiterated his selection of Deanof the College Roger Hildebrand as theprincipal speaker at all three sessions of theSpring Convocation.According to the committee recom¬mendations, two or possibly threegraduating seniors will be selected to speakfor five minutes each at the Convocationsession at which seniors will be awardedtheir degrees. A selection committee hasbeen formed which includes one studentfrom each of the five Collegiate DivisionalAdvisory Committees, one student fromDean Hildebrand’s Student AdvisoryCommittee, and two students from amongthe original group petitioning for studentspeakers. Four faculty members have beenappointed by President Levi to sit on thecommittee. Loma Straus, Dean of Studentsin the College, has been asked to act as anadviser to the committee and supply supportservices.The names of most of the members of theselection committee have already beenannounced.

Applications for the positionshould take the form of a letter to ChalresO’Connell, Dean of Students and should besubmitted to his office by Monday, May 7th.The Ombudsman is a part-time salariedofficer of the University. He may be either aman or a woman, but he must be a currently registered degree candidate, with a superioracademic average. The candidate must bewilling to take a reduced academic programduring his term of office. Among undergraduate candidates for the position,students entering their senior year will begiven preference.The Ombudsman is not a representative ofany party or group, and his qualifications foroffice should be of a kind usually associatedwith the judicial, rahter than the legislativeor executive functions: independencedisinterested-ness, and fairness.The Ombudsman must provide an internalcheck on the fairness and efficiency ofUniversity procedures, thus he must alreadypossess these qualifications to a great degreeand be willing to cultivate them further.

Advertising increases sales in twoways, by changing tastes and by providinginformation, according to Philip J Nelson inthe second lecture of a series on Advertisingand Society sponsored by the GraduateSchool of Business.Associate professor of economics at theState University of New York in Bingham¬ton, Nelson defended the “Economic Value of Advertising” and laid his emphasis onadvertising as information. Saying thatadvertising changes tastes, Nelson assertedthat “There is little more to say.” Con¬sumers must choose to either have theirtastes changed or curb them.Advertising allows one to say something,and “lack of information breeds an im¬perfect market,” said Nelson. Two types ofinformation advertise two different types ofgoods.More direct information is included inadvertising for search goods which can beinspected prior to purchase: information about the products must be more detailed forthe discriminating consumer.For experience goods, more indirect in¬formation is included in advertising becausethe consumer discriminates between themby his own experiment. Repeat purchase isthe consumer’s control over this type ofcommodity, and consumers seek to maketheir experience less costly. Indirect in¬formation, while less complete, does relatebrand to function correctly, he concluded.The more advertising a product receives,the more likely the consumer is to try it.“The consumer is right in assuming thatCannon: chances for student aid dropcontinued from page onewith incomes below $9000. According to FredBrooks, however, SEOG has been a veryeffective program, although he pointed outthat “we have never received as muchmoney as we could have used under theSEOG program.” He indicated that hebelieves that Congress will reinstate thatprogram and make other changes in theNixon proposals. “I can’t believe that theproposed guidelines for the BEOG won’t bechanged and that the present program(SEOG) won’t be funded to some extent,” hesaid.Other undergraduate aid programs havealso been affected by the new budget. TheCollege Work-Study program, through whichthe federal government and educationalinstitutions cooperate to provide em¬ployment opportunities for qualifyingstudents, has had its funding reducedslightly. At the same tine an increasingnumber of institutions have become eligibleunder the program’s guidelines. “Thereduced amount of money in Work-Study willhave to be divided among the greaternumber of students and institutionseligible,” Brooks predicted, and thus theamount available for individual studentsand institutions will decrease.Changes in Work-Study and EducationalOpportunity Grant funding will affectdirectly only lower income students, butproposed changes in the federal loanprogram will affect a much larger group.The National Direct (formerly Defense)Student Loan program has been eliminated.That program is being replaced by FederallyInsured Loans, which, although theoreticallymore plentiful, have higher interest rates.The University has already indicated that itwill continue to use repayments being madeon past National Defense Loans to operate arevolving fund from which loans can bemade under NDSL conditions, but such loanswill be restricted to a much smaller numberof people than in the past.Last spring Congress voted a sup¬plemental National Direct Loan ap¬propriation of $23.6 million. The Presidenthas impounded those funds, and there are nocertain indications of when or if the fundswill be released.The wave in cutbacks in undergraduate aidprograms has produced an immediateoutcry on the part of some in college aidoffices. Fred Brooks cautioned that “it’sreally too early to say exactly what’s going tohappen...Many financial aid offices arelegitimately upset but too often wave the redflag at the wrong time.” He pointed that theproposed aid guidelines are still underreview by thp Office of Education and theCongress, and that there is some question ofthe legality of the new Nixon proposals, sincethey seem to violate the requirements setforth in the Education Amendments of 1972.Those laws specifically require that SEOG,NDSL and Work-Study be maintained atcertain minimum levels.Despite the cutbacks affecting un¬dergraduate aid, the parts of the Universitythat will be most affected by the new budgetwill be the graduate divisions and one of theprofessional schools. The federal Title VIprogram, which supports students as well asresearch and administrative support in threelanguage and area centers, has beeneliminated.The cutback affects Balkan and SlavicStudies, South Asian Language and AreaStudies and Far Eastern Language and AreaStudies. Title VI currently supports 65students, mostly in the Humanities andSocial Sciences graduate division. Theprogram provides tuition for 4 quarters and astipend. The loss of funds for student aid URETZ: Professor mentions budget cuts'effect.alone will be $335 thousand. The total loss isexpected to end up between five and sixhundred thousand dollars. “Title Vi’s makepossible a considerably enriched program inthe teaching of languages,” Humanities deanRobert Streeter noted. “We’ll have to cutback to essentials.”The part of the University that willprobably be hardest-hit by the federal cut¬backs will be the Division of the BiologicalSciences. The Nixon budget eliminatesTraining Grants, which provide student aid,equipment and supplies, as well as somesalaries of young faculty members involvedin research. O’Connell reported that atpresent “the Biological Sciences studentsare 98 percent supported.”Commenting on the effect of the cutbacks,Biological Sciences deputy dean RobertUretz predicted: “It’s going to be severe.”According to Uretz the cuts will affectseveral hundred students. The elimination ofthe grants will be phased over a period ofseveral years, so that the full effect will notbe felt immediately. There have been some promises that some of the loss may be offsetby other grants but Uretz stated, “Thatremains to be seen.” The eventual loss to thedivision may very well run to $5,000,000.dollars.In 1971-1972 the School of Social ServiceAdministration received a large block grantfrom the Department of Health, Educationand Welfare. The grant came in three parts:student aid, instructional costs and research.HEW has informed the University that nonew student aid awards will be made nextyear. This will essentially cut the number ofstudent traineeships in half. Associate deanJohn Schuerman also stated that SSA ex¬pects “substantial reduction in the in¬structional part (of the grant).” He wouldnot reveal the amount of the loss involved butindicated that it will be “very substantial.”Summarizing the effects of the proposedfederal budget, William Cannon, VicePresident for Programs and Projects,stated: “the federal input is a diminishingpart of the University’s total revenues.”Cannon serves essentially as a liaison bet¬ween the University and the federalgovernment. He noted that although federalsupport for research and development andacademic work is up 4.7 percent for 1973-1974, there have been significant shifts in thenature of that support. “The problem is thatthe balance of federal support is shiftingtoward applied research,” he said. TheUniversity, of course, is instead directedtoward basic research.“The chances are that student aid,especially at the graduate level, will be downsubstantially for ’73-’74,” he continued “Itreflects the fact that the government isshifting its pattern of support away fromgrants and fellowships and towards loans.”The changed aspect of federal support willforce the University to make some long-needed changes in its sources of funds.Charles O’Connell put it this way: “It issimply unrealistic for a private university inthis day and age to depend on thebenevolence of or the good sense of thefederal government for student aid.” advertised brands are better ... It pays toadvertise winners rather than loosers.”Nelson asserted, and consumers can tellthem apart. Consumers act in self-interest inresponse to advertising which provides abasis for intelligent responseNelson refuted two current accusationsagainst advertising, that it increasesmonopoly power and that it wastesresources.Providing the consumer with productdifferentiation as a result of changing tastes,advertising informs the consumer aboutsubstitutes to monopoly power and decreasesmonopoly power over price by presentingmore alternatives. While it is true that ad¬vertising drives less efficient firms out ofbusiness, it makes entry to the market easierfor highly-advertised new industry andproducts, he said. Investors are apt to putmoney into advertising a good new productsince advertising depends on future sales,not past ones. Elimination of inefficientfirms does produce greater collusion,Regarding the waste of resources, Nelsonaffirmed that evidence is as yet too vaguethat too much money is spent on advertising.More research is needed on the question.However, purchases support more ef¬ficient firms and returns of advertising mustexceed the cost to the firms. On the other sideof the coin. Nelson elaimec that marginalvalue to consumers of advertising is nogreater than the small time-price of theconsumer is seeing the advertising Advertising is not a product that people pay for.according to Nelson, “advertising makes fora more competitive market ”The amount of deceptiveness in ad¬vertising is exaggerated today and theconsumer power of repeated purchasingminimizes fraudulent advertising. Fraudlaw's are important, however, because theyencourage the availability of more directinformation for consumers, not becausetheyreduce deception I a the realm. Nelsonadmitted that there is room for improvingadvertising's performance.“Exaggeration makes advertising morememorable”, ana memorability makes itmore efficient Nelson said Elimination ofexaggeration by the Federal Trade Com¬mission would mean eliminating much of thememorable repetition especially in indirectadvertising.Nelson believes that the FTC should notplay a role interfering with advertisingInstead, Nelson suggested that the govern¬ment serve as an impartial authenticatingagency for products because it would becheaper to authenticate, thereby eliminatingthe need for policing deception.Reforms of advertising are proposed bythose who do not understand the two im¬portant functions oi advertising, impartinginformation to the consumer and en¬couraging a competitive market. Nelsonconcluded.Guru grants salvation in 90 daysBy CD JACODisciples of the 14-month old perfectspiritual master, the Guru Googoo-Gee, haveannounced the founding of a Yogi Ashcantemple on campus. The temple, to be locatedat 5855 University Avenue, will “...serve thespiritual needs of the semi or un-enlightenedat UC,” according to Hart Wartly, head ofthe campus Spiritual Adoration Society.Said Wartly, “We’ve grown from 6 to 6million in just one year. Now try us for 90days, there’s nothing to fear.” The newtemple, whose motto is “Salvation in 90Days,” will be constructed under a grantfrom the Pipeline to Godhead Publishing Co.,a corporation of Bombay business con¬sultants.According to Wartly and FranklinMalbranche, financial consultant for thetemple, the Guru Googoo-Gee was born inFebruary, 1972 in a village in the remotenorthwestern provinces of India. “Eversince then,” said Malbranche, “the Guru hasbeen spreading his Divine message. When hewas 6 months old, our Perfect Master curedan entire village of leprosy.” Malbranchediscounted rumors that the “cure” had beenperformed with the assistance of napalmstrikes by the Indian air force.Malbranche went on to say that the Guruoriginated the Salvation in 90 Days plan twomonths ago, and that since then, mem¬ bership has grown to over 6 million. “TheGuru,” he said, “practices a form ofenlightened asceticism. What this means isthat his followers renounce worldlypossessions in order to gain completeenlightenment. Since the Guru is alreadyenlightened, all of the possessions are givento him so that he may contemplate God in Hismany forms.”The 14-month old master is said to haveperformed a series of miracles in the last fewmonths, including the end of the VietnamWar and the disappearance of HenryKissinger’s pimples. According to hiscampus spokesmen, the Guru will be touringthe United States “....within a few weeks”and will probably visit the building that is tohouse the new temple on campus. The date ofhis exact visit is still uncertain, butMalbranche said that notices would beposted well in advance.Wartly and Malbranche said that amakeshift temple will begin operating oncampus next week. The procedure for joiningthe temple will be simple; the initiate willsurrenger all of hie possessions at the door,and reclaim them when he is enlightened.“Unfortunately,” said Malbranche, “theenlightenment wash-out rate is pretty high.”Wartly urged student interest in theproject, saying “Put down vour first payment and iollov ire crowd: kiss theskirts of Googoo-Gee and cry ‘God’ out loudPut down another pa vmem and in 9«. .lays, nojoke, your soul will go sLaighi heaven,even if your body gees broke ”Friday, April 27, 1973 - The Chicago Maroon - 3AMOTIONPICTURETH \TCF J ORATEST JE TIMELESSr awiUGINALtilMOCENCE.Franco zensrau HIS F IKS 1 f MSISC [ K( )M[ O \ |( Ilf“aroTHcrsun sisi arMOorrPG Tf( MS ( ('X(W PANAMSION* A PARAMOCM Pl< -i.4|i ENT!mm wmmm iCARNEGIE YDRKTOvVNQNEMA DRuth at Oak ] Lomhr jFOR SPECIAL SVJDENT/GROUP RATES CONTACT:Canv qie • Andy: 341-1200Yorktown • Mr. Zirkelbach: 495-0010 •sBRIGHTONIlnentcSPRING TIRE SALE$ Tires III Foreign Gars' V p E PRICE FET LOADRANGE600 - : ru. 20.50 1.35 E600 - 3 . 21.50 1.51 B615 - 1 • 21.50 1.31 B560 - Lr 20.50 1.50 B560 - 15 ' . 19.50 1.52 B600 - 15 : . . 22.50 1.71 B600 - 15 20.50 1.69 BRadials f c*; U Tsreign GarsS I ZE L TYPE P r ICE PET LOAD165 HR 15 TT714 3 L .

Was it. we wondered,really different from the Soviet Union? Anddid it offer a useful social model to westernradical movements? Some groups arguedthat China stood in the vanguard of worldrevolution. Others vehemently denouncedChina for abandoning Marxism. Most of usshrugged our shoulders, read Fanshen (abook by William Hinton about life in aChinese villa?- in 1949), and said “it soundsgood but I sunt- v. ish I could go take a look atwhat’s going on low."That was in late I960, when the first phaseof the Cultural Revolution was drawing to aclose, both at lTC and in China. TheAmen in government forbid us to travel toChina and the Chinese still weren't anxiousfor [< :eign guests. We could only subsist onthe CIA’s monthly report of Mao’s imminentdeal and hope for more substantial news inthe future.1 mes changed. In the summer of 1971 theAmerican ping pong team floated into Chinaon a raft of undercover diplomacy'and theAmerican media’s blockade of China wasabruptly lifted. In January of the followingwinter Nixon himself strode through theportals of Peking’s Forbidden City andappeared on TV toasting Chiarman Mao’shealth.The doors to China swung open forAmericans and I estimate that since theeummer of 1971 about 1,000 Americans(excluding the presidential entourage) havevisited the People’s Republic. This year I gotmy “look at what’s going on now” and just amonth ago I returned from a month’s travelin China, becoming (as far as I know) thesecond UC student to visit the People’sRepublic in recent years.Our delegation got together briefly in SanFrancisco and then flew to Hong Kong viaTokyo. On February 21st we crossed fromHong Kong colony into the People’sRepublic. In the course of the next month wevisited people, places, and institutions in thecities of Canton, Peking, Shanghai, andChangsha and lived for a few days on a ruralcommune in north central China.We traveled as guests of the ChineseScientific and Technical Association whichmet the costs of our trip inside China. Abouthalf of our time we spent investigating thingsand people directly relevant to our interest inscience, and about half the time we visitedsites of more general cultural, historical, andpolitical interest.It’s difficult to summarize four weeks ofI- intense and diverse experiences in the spaceallotted here, there are so many sharpcontrasts between life in China and in ourown society. 1 will try to illustrate the kind ofdifferences that exist taking university life-as a brief example.We spent one whole day at TsinghuaUniversity on the outskirts of Peking.Tsinghua is China’s leading school of scienceand engineering and was the scene of violentstruggle during the Cultural Revolution(described in another book by Hinton,Hundred Day War: The Cultural Revolutionat Tsinghua University). We visitedlaboratories and classrooms, ate in a studentdining hall, toured the library, and sat andtalked with students in their room in awomen’s dormitory. We also spoke at lengthto Liu Ping, the administrator in charge ofday to day activities around the university,and to Chur Huong-ling and Ma Ying-xiang,who had participated as student red guardsin the Tsinghua struggle.One of the deeply impressive things aboutChina is the number of friendly easv-goingpeople you meet who hold high ad¬ministrative positions. On the whole, Chineserevolutionary mayors, managers, anduniversity administrators are free of thestuffed shirtedness and overbearingdemeanor that characterizes people withsimilar standing in the US. Mr Ping, in fact,shared almost exactly the gentle helpfullively personality of a man we had met a fewdays before, Mr Sen, a leader of Red Staragricultural commune outside Peking.

As our student friends summed up thesituation: The professors thought only“Exams, exams, exams.” The students only“Marks, marks, marks.”This situation exacerbated a tendency forstudents from worker and peasantbackgrounds to fall by the wayside, whilestudents from intellectual city backgroundsclimbed much the way their parents hadbefore the revolution. This reflected agrowing tendency throughout China forcertain party members and a section ofscientists, engineers, and other professionalpeople to separate out as a class above theworkers and peasants. The CulturalRevolution put an end to all this and to for¬mal education altogether for a few years.At Tsinghua the students rose and suc¬cessfully overthrew the small number ofadministrators consciously pursuing theGADFLY“revisionist path” or “capitalist road” ineducation. Then began a long process ofeducation in which the students strove toconvince the bulk of professors and ad¬ministrators that their former practices hadbeen separating the university from theneeds of the Chinese people. Serious disputesarose among the students as to which facultymembers could be counted as friends andwhich enemies. Factions formed andeventually engaged in armed struggle.Now there is an emphasis on recruitmentof worker and peasant students. Exams are“open.” The questions are given to studentsahead of time. Students are encouraged toassist in the preparation and updating ofteaching materials. Each week students andteachers engage in sessions of criticism andself-criticism. Students spend 15 percent oftheir time in political study. We visited aformal political study course in whichstudents were commenting on Mao’s 1945article on the Chungking negotiations bet¬ween the Communist Party and Chiang Kai-shek. Another 5 percent of the students’ timeis devoted to farming (they help grow theirown food) and “learning from the People’sLiberation Army.” The remaining 80 percentof their time is devoted to study which in¬cludes experience working in industriesrelated to a student’s specialty. Tuition, food,board, and textbooks are free for allstudents.Professors are also strongly urged tospend time in factories. The Red Guards toldus of one professor who at first resisted goingout to work with industrial workers. Heeventually came around after longdiscussions. Later, on his return fromvisiting the US with a group of Chinesescientists he brought American cigarettesfor his fellow workers at the factory. If thechanges I’ve outlined seem trivial, try toestimate for a moment the number of packsof cigarettes that President Levi or theBoard of Trustees are likely to carry back tothe workers at UC from their jaunt in Chinanext week.Tuesday night (May 1st) I will show slidesfrom the trip at Ida Noyes and speak in moredetail about this and other experiences inChina.

Looking like ayoung, Jewish Gabby Hayes, he slumpedback in his chair and looked at the ceiling.“Well,” he sighed, “it’s almost done. 40 to 60hours a week for the last three months ndit’s almost done.” “It” is a video tape, 'hename of the video tape is “Sit-In” and--guesswhat?--it’s subject is the 1969 sit in.A video tape seems innocent enough, butwhen the tape concerns an episode mostadministrators would like to forget, thingsbecome complicated. Landsman, an ex-University student, came back to Chicago afew months ago with an interest in videotape, some spare change, and a lot of gall.Since then, he has borrowed video tapeequipment from several Chicago video tapegroups, rented equipment from others, andpaid all production expenses out of his ownpocket.The tape, which he labels a “docufantasy”,is not entirely a documentary. “Toward theend,” said Landsman, “it lapses into fan¬tasy. I guess you might say that I construct a few metaphors. The entire purpose of thething, outside of the artistic, is to start peoplethinking again. Most of the people on campusweren’t around when the sit-in happened,and aren’t really aware of what went on. Inthat sense, they’re not really aware of thereal nature of this university.”Landsman said that “...circles close toPresident Levi” had become worriedbecause the tape might be critical of theUniversity. “The tape is critical,” he said,“but it’s critical of everybody involved.”The “circles close to the President” seemto be more than just worried. A spokesmanfor the University of Chicago Video Com¬mittee (UCVC), a student organization thatis sponsoring the showing of the tape, said“We had planned to show the tape on thenight of April 30 at Ida Noyes and at noon onMay Day in Reynolds Club. However, wordhas come to us that some of the powers-that-be are a trifle upset, so we cancelled the on- campus showings. We’re going to re¬schedule the thing, maybe at the Gargoyle.We’re not sure of the exact time yet.”Last year, one of the statements made inthe Report of the Committee on Broad¬casting to the President of the Universitywas to the effect that television was a meanstoward “...the suppression of literacy.” Anumber of professors and administrators, itwould seem, -still feel this way, especiallywhen the subject matter is the sit-in.David Affelder of UC’s HumVideo, said“I’ve seen parts of the tape. It’s not the sametype of tape HumVideo would have made,but it’s good and deserves to be seen. The useof editing in the tape is sophisticated, andquite advanced.”The editing, direction, filming, andproduction have been a one-man effort with,as Landsman says, “A lot of help from myfriends. Video groups on campus, at Circle,and around Chicago in general have been great. I couldn’t have done the entire thingmyself; dozens of people have volunteeredtime and equipment.”A video tape on almost any other subjectwould probably have been produced andshown without much fuss. But the sit-in islike a scab on the forehead of the life of themind; every time it gets rubbed, it bleeds alittle.The “true nature of this university” mayhave already been explicated without ashowing of the video tape, which is a shame.Analogies between circles close to Levi andcircles close to Nixon might be a little far¬fetched. But then again, they might not be,especially to anyone who was here in 1969.“I think the tape will be shown.” saidLandsman. “Maybe at the Gargoyle, maybesomeplace else.”Everything comes to him that waits, sokeep waiting. Maybe this campus will get tosee itself on tape after all.CALENDARFriday, April 27FILM: "The Go Between", DOC, Quantrell, $1, 7:15 and9:30 pmSHERRY HOUR: History Sherry Hour, Social Science TeaRoom, 4:00 pm.PLAY: Struggling Upwards, Blackfriars, Mandel, Students$!, Others $1.50, 8:30 pm,DISCUSSION: Israel at 25, Israel, Past, Present, andFuture, Israeli students discussion, Hillel, 5715 S Woodlawn,8:30 pm,LECTURE: Prot Robert A Fernea, U of Texas, Austin,"Public and privatedimensions of life in Marrakesh", SwiftHall Commons, 4 pm.LECTURE: Dr Frederick Foos, Ph D "The ancient scienceof soul travel", Disciples of Christ Church, 5655 University,8 pm.LECTURE: "South Korea: New Dictatorsnip" An eveningwith Kim Dae Jung, Lutheran School of Theology, 8 pm.Saturday, April 28WRITING EXAM: English writing exam, Quantrell, 2 pm.BASEBALL: Maroons vs Lake Forest, doubleheader,Stegg, 12:30.JAZZ: Spring jazz festival, Malcolm X College Jazz Bandplus Maelstrom, Lutheran School of Theology, 1100 E 55th,Gen'!

IM Softball gotits season underway on Monday the 23rd.With a total of 63 teams spread aroundbetween grads, coeds and undergrads, thereis no lack of enthusiasm, nor has MotherNature been particularly harsh (ignoringthose games piayed in the swamps on theMidway).It is difficult to predict anything in the zanyworld of IM sports, but let the following serveas a preview of sorts.The Men’s Graduate Division breaxs downinto four leagues. In the Red League thereappear to be no super teams although neitherMeninges nor Opinion Colonels have piayedas of this writing. While the Maulers, a well-traveled 3rd year Law team, and SSA wontheir openers, they weren’t impressive onoffense or defense.The Green League ‘sports' those ref-abusers, Back Row. as perhaps their besiteam. This group of 3rd year Law students,widely known for their loud squawks over thequality of IM refs, must be recognized as asottball power, having squashed Matthew-House, 26-0, in their opener. Skip Lariats FatCity Nine, winning over the BedazzledBananas 20-3 on Monday, iost to BacK Row,13-50. on Tuesday, in what amounted to theleague championship.n the Blue League, two Law school teams,•txican Madness and the 60lh Street Bom¬bers, look, strong, but it is too early todiscount the Penguins-Schaeffer Laing, andthe rest of the graduate chemistry depart¬ment.The Divisional White League is in a classby itself due tc the presence of See YourFood, last year’s all-University champs asall-Universitv Ajax Scavengers and odds-onfavorites to repeat. Nevertheless they navestiff competition from Wilson’s Wizzards andZap.In the Undergraduate Division, the groupto watch is the White League, which containsthe three strongest teams of last year Hit¬chcock West, last year’s Undergrad champs,return thoroughly transformed from lastyear's juggernaut, but they are still strong asevidenced by their 13-12 win over Shorev onMonday. Psi Upsilon, Hitchcock's onlyserious competitor last year, has lost muchthrough attrition and the new IM rule ban¬ning all varsity lettermen from participatingin major IM sports. Shorey rebounded fromMonday’s defeat with a resounding 29-7 winover the Upper Rickert on Tuesday. Theirnucleus has returned from last year andshould be enough to put them in the playoffs.Henderson will field a strong team, though itis untested as of this date.The Under grad Red league has strongteams in Hitchcock East, Dodd/ Mead, andThompson North. Thompson has an excellentnucleus of ballplayers. Hitchcock is countingheavily on its associates and if they show up.this will be a tough team to beat.Organization is a problem here as is the‘amed Hitchcock ego. Dodd/ Mead won theiropener and looked good against a decidedlyInferior Greenwood team. Salisbury is a darkhorse.Vincent and Lower Rickert appear as solidlearns in the Undergrad Blue leagueChamberlin and Thompson South areplaying, but are definite underdogs.The Undergraduate Independent leaguewill be dominated by the Brothers El Gulcho,the same team that has led that independentleague all year. David Clardy s SoftbaiiTeam may provide a challenge, but that isuniikely.Undergrad Coed Softball is almost com¬pletely unpredictable, but the Maroon teamlooks strong in the Blue league and Shorey,under the remarkable leadership of BeckyChasgrasulis will probably do well in the RedLeague. Salisbury might also be tough here.The undergrad champ however, stands littlechance of winning the All-U Coed Cham¬pionship.The Divisional league will be dominated byEast Your Food, the coed counterpart of themen’s See Your Food. They stand littlechance of being beaten. Led by Ann Clark, asuperb slow-pitch artist, they were lastyear’s All-University Coed Champs andshould take it all again in the Coed In-tramurais. ILETTERS TO THE EDITORInternational HouseIn response to the Maroon article of April13th I would like to correct certain inac¬curate impressions about InternationalHouse and its residents. Any of thestatements made can be simply verified. Nospace has been allotted for opinions orsecondhand information to obfuscate thedata.There is little doubt after 38 years that theInternational House interior needs to beredecorated. House council, in collaborationwith the administration, has advanced plansfor extensive refurbishing of public areas ofthe House to take place this summer. Clearlythis will brighten the “general atmosphere.”Is it into this newly redone atmosphere that*he new foreign student enters? To assume aiimly lit hall or signs of wear and tear im¬pose a general atmosphere of gloom iswrong. Among all residents of InternationalHouse the physical environment alone doesnot determine the general atmoshpere. Ifdepression prevails in the minds of a few it isnot due to any lack of activities sponsored bythe House. Such weekly social functions asfree movies, sherry hours, popcornsocials,and less frequent events such ashouse parties, international dinners,speakers, and international folk festivals.Individual residents can’t be forced toparticipate in House activities. HouseCouncil and the administration can onlymake them available.When a new foreign student enters In¬ternational House he is greeted by the Housepersonnel who tend to his immediate needsregarding his settlement and initial ad¬justment in his new home. All new foreignstudents are encouraged to see the ad¬ministrators, Mr Utley and Mr Brown,whether or not they have any specific reason-merely to get acquainted. I have never heardof a case when their doors were closed or theywere inhospitable. Many of the problemsbrought out in the article reflect “worldproblems” and it would be extremely naiveto think that their solutions can be found anymore easily in International House than inthe UN. The nationwide scope of thedilemmas and difficulties confronting foreign students studying in AmericanUniversities was discussed in a special ar¬ticle in Newsweek magazine a few monthsago.The International House Residents Councilis a favourite topic for all. I welcome thediscussion. The House Council is composedof students from many different countries.Meetings are open to everyone. There is nolack of foreign representation. The councilfor spring term is comprised of 11 Americansand 11 foreigners. The Vice President andthe Treasurer are from France and Belgiiim,respectively. The aims and achievements ofHouse Council could be expressed in amultitude of ways. It is sufficient to say thatthe great commonwealth of human societyshall not be the loser through it It will takegreat care to put into the common fund morethan it takes out.There are long-range goals at I Housemany have been implemented already.International House has traditionally beenone of the most open and friendly places oncampus and it will remain so. Life here is notas problematic as the article states. Com¬munication is not lacking. Is life so wret¬ched0 Isn’t rather your hands which are toosmall, your vision which is muddied?Jim LandfieldTerm papersThe Maroon received the following letterfrom an advertiser:Paul BatesBusiness ManagerThe Chicago Maroon1212 East 59th StreetChicago, Illinois 60637Dear Master Bates:Today we received your notice saying thatour account was in arrears by $17.52 andthreatening us with “intense actiol” if we didnot pay within 10 days.I am not sure what you mean by intenseaction, but it sounds faintly legal, and Paul, Ithink you are pursuing the wrong line ofaction For legal action at a distance of 900miles does not seem very threatening, butPaul, if you threatened us here with taking usCORSO cornerFOTA 73presentsApr. 29 Ralph Vaughan Williams Commemorative Concert52 piece professional orchestra45 member chorusSoloists - Arnold Brostoff, CSO violinist- Sheldon Skolnick, concert pianistLarry Mendes - conductorRockefeller Chapel 3:30 p.m. FREEMay 1 Opening Ceremonies - NoonMay 2 Stephanie Rothman Film Festival"The Student Nurses" "Group Marriage""Velvet Vampire"Quantrell, 7:30 p.m. FREEMay 3 Stephanie Rothman Film Festival"Bikini World" Discussion with Ms. RothmanQuantrell 7:30 p.m. FREETHE MUSIC SOCIETY PRESENTSTHE MUSIC SOCIETY TRIO: Jonathan Leight, violinGary Brownfield, celloMarcus Berger, piano**************************************VARIATIONS ON "ICH BIN DER KAKADU OP. 121 -L. von BeethovenTRIO #1, OP. 28TRIO IN D MINOR.

Sincerely,Warren E Wonker•r and ask himif he s still as much of an ass as when I was inhis seminar.Since Autumn Quarter the Maroonhas discontinued running these ads notfor moral reasons but for financialreasons. Not one of the term papercompanies paid their bill. Moral issuesaside, the above letter and the fiscalirresponsibility is comment enough onthe integrity of such organizations.—Paul BatesStudent GovernmentI am an elected representative to StudentGovernment of the class of 76. I was electedfor approximately two weeks for the purposeof deciding whether or not Ron Davis shouldremain as Chairman of the Election andRules Committee. This, in itself, puts me in aunique position. Without having becomeentagled in the passions connected withStudent Government this year, I have beenable to observe and take part in this im¬portant question. I would now like to sharesome of those observations with you.There are primarily two opposing factionsin Student Government this year--0BS andnon-OBS members. The feud between thesefactions has caused Student Government todegenerate into a controversial but largelyineffectual organization. Student Govern¬ment is a political stalemate with each sidetrying desperately to politically out-maneuver the other side. This has been inoperation since the farcical freshmanelections and culminated in the im¬peachment proceedics against Ron Davis,This latest action has resulted in a con¬tinuation of the stalemate with no immediateend in sight.It should be made clear, I feel, despite theeloquent assertions of the opposing factions,that both sides are at fault. A reporter of thisnewspaper commented to me the night of theimpeachment proceedings that this was a“$50,000 joke.” I agree, but I feel it is more than that. It has degenerated into a jokebecause both sides consider the entire Affaira game, a trial of skill and endurence. BothRon Davis and Tom Campbell have refusedto compromise, cooperate, or work with eachother and have chosen to work against eachother. The reason for this clash goes fardeeper than I can ever hope to see. Yet onlyneed read the newspapers or attend an SGmeeting to observe the consequences. Bothsides are ignoring what is right and what isethical in order to promote their own causeand defeat their opponents Both sides refuseto give in. This is a very sad state of affairs.Yet now, the curcual consideration lies notmerely in these events but in the motivationunderlying these events.No doubt many people, regardless of theiraffiliation with Student Government, haveformed unshakeable opinions on this tipic.Racism is charged on both sides of thequestion. I think that racism is a very in¬teresting but futile question Only TomCampbell or Ron Davis or an yother memberof SG can truly tell whether their actionshave been motivated by racism. But theimportant note to consider is that when tworaces form tow homogeneous and seperatepolitical parties, their differences, par¬ticularly race, will be grounds for contention.It is impossible for white students to joinOBS. Therefore, when OBS asserts itselfpolitically, many whites feel their onlyrecourse to prevent domination is to fightOBS. That some whites have felt forced intothis position, I think, is the ultimate sadnessof Student Governmnet; for the observingpublic and those immediately involved areforced, as a result of nature of the politicalrealities, with a situation that can be. and is,constructed as racist, when in fact it may beonly political. Everyone must realize thatthis year, two races, black and white, havefound it impossible to peacefully coexist inStudent Government. Are the emotions ofcommon bond and affection for fellowstudents out of place at a high-pressuredintellectual atmosphere0 Can two differentraces exist within the framework of aStudent Government without both lettingthose racial differences becoming strongerthan the bond that unites them0 I thought Iknew' the answers to these questions.Chuck HanrahanWith TWA itpays to be young.Armed with just your TWA Bed andBreakfast* Plan, and a pack on your hack,you can get a lot more of Europe1 for a ^lot less with TWA.Here are some ways we helpBed and BreakfastTWAs "Bed and Breakfast^gets you guest houseaccommodations (at theleast) in 47 European cities,breakfast and extras likesightseeing or theatre ticketsall at really low prices.Europe Bonus Coupon Books.Take your boarding pass to any TWATicket Office in London, Paris, Rome,Frankfurt, Madrid, Athens or Amsterdam,C0lT-& and you’ll get a book of bonus coupons goodBONUS ; CCUF0S for absolutely free things, as well asCOUPON;—discounted extras like bicycles, theatreBOOKS [coupon S tickets, sightseeing, meals and lots, lotsmore.

ISAACSThe Big Bertolucci Blow-up is on, and promises to goon for quite a while. Time, Newsweek, New York. NewYorker, the New York Times, the Village Voice:everybody’s jumped into the wrangle. The fight, ofcourse, is over Last Tango in Paris— Bertolucci slatest effort, starring Brando (49), Maria Schneider(21), and .Iean-Pierre Leaud (eternally 23). Ber¬tolucci. as everybody must by now know, came on thescene at age 22 with Before the Revolution (which Ihaven't seen), and continued with Spider’s Stratagem(made for Italian TV) and The Conformist. Earlier heworked as an assistant to Pier Pasolini.With Last Tango about to open in Chicago. I’d like torecur to Bertolucci’s previous film, The Conformist,this for several reasons. In the first place, that filmhas been badly understood and generally underrated.Second, at least five shots in Last Tango refer back toThe Conformist— Bertolucci himself invites thecomparison. Third, Bertolucci’s last three films allhad explicit political content, making their relation toLast Tango somewhat puzzling. Of course it might justbe that there is no relationship between his earlierwork and Last Tango, but that would render thereferences back to The Conformist even more inex¬plicable.The one critic most responsible for the success ofLast Tango in this country has been Pauline Kael.Furthermore, it was Kael who produced the mostperceptive essay on The Conformist when it opened atthe New York Film Festival in 1970 (that review isreprinted in her latest collection. Deeper Into Movies,available in Kegenstein). But this is not to say verymuch. On the whole her review reduces to the ob¬servations that The Conformist is a brilliant, if flawed,period piece with great costumes, and that Trin-tignant (one of her favorites) does a fine acting job.Kael is one of the few critics in this country who hasever seen the whole of The Conformist. Sad to say, theversions released to the theatres have been trimmed.In particular, Kael mentions a party of blind menwhich appears in none of the prints I have seen. This isreally too bad, as I suspect that the scene would evenmore support to what I shall propose below. Ad¬ditionally, I have seen stills with the frame numberson them which do not match any scenes in theAmerican version. But this is getting to be a tired oldstory with regard to both domestic and foreign filmsreleased in this country (e.g. Straw Dogs and DiscreetCharm of the Bourgeosie).The Conformist began as a novel by AlbertoMoravia. The novel was a psychological study withstrong Freudian overtones of a young man whobecomes a Fascist. Bertolucci has largely followed thenovel with respect to antinn character motivation even dialogue. At the same time, he changes somecharacters’ names, invents others, and completelyrearranges the ending. Curiously, he also drasticallyplays down Moravia’s Freudian aspects. I say“curiously” because in interviews Bertolucci likes tothrow around a goodly amount of Freudian .largon. 1suspect that the reason he underplays this aspect ofthe novel is because he wishes the conformist to belargely responsible for his own fate, his own badchoices.Timidly, hesitantly, I would like to put forward thefollowing suggestion: The Conformist is thematicallybased less on Moravia's novel than on Plato'sRepublic. Specifically, the film is intended as a con¬temporary illustration of the life of the tyrannic manas described in Books IX and X of the Republic. Ifyou’re still with me, I hasten to add that this thesiswas no a priori conception, and that it has forced itselfupon me by necessity, not desireThe Conformist is the story of Marcello Clerici(Jean-Louis Trintignant). Shortly before his marriageto Giulia (Stefania Sandrelli) he is recruited into theFascist party on the basis of a scheme he has dreamtup to gain the confidence of his old philosophy teacher,Professor Quadri. Quadri, in exile in Paris, is theleader of an underground anti-Fascist movementconsidered to be a danger to the regime. Clerici goesto Paris on his honeymoon, but his orders are changeden route; he is to arrange the professor’sassassination. Upon reaching Paris, Clerici gainssome measure of the professor’s confidence, whilefalling in love with the professor’s young wife, Anna(Dominique Sandra, sigh...). In due course, he betraysthe professor and, inadvertently, his wife—they arehideously killed on a mountain road as Clerici wat¬ches.When Clerici first visits Quadri’s apartment he istaken to the study. There he and Quadri quote backand forth at each other the famous Cave Allegory ofthe Republic, the topic of Clerici’s aborted doctoralthesis. The shifting lighting of the scene, provided bythe opening and closing of the shutters, is a strikingvisual counterpoint to the dialogue. Here, aselsewhere in the film, Clerici is most often in shadows.The opening credits roll by over a shot of Clerici lyingon a hotel bed, intermittently illuminated by flashesfrom a neon Sign outside the window. In the closingshot he sits in a Rome alley-way, staring numbly at aflickering fire.Earlier in the film we saw Clerici enter a large,almost bare, marble hall (reminiscent of the library ofCharles Foster Kane’s dead guardian), the office ofthe minister from whom he receives his mission. Inthe background workmen carry past huge stone bustsof Mussolini. Their weight so obviously dispropor¬tionate to their size they seem to float hv They cannot fail to remind us of the cave prisoners who see only theshadows of men carrying “statues of men ..wroughtfrom stone.”Clerici is clearly a prisoner of the shadow-world ofthe cave. Still, he has been partially freed - he is not soblind as his truly sightless friend who delivers a radiospeech on the “Latin image of Hitler and the“Germanic side to Mussolini.” Clerici is not taken inby this sort of polemic. It is worse, he is a law untohimself.But this is far from all the use of the Republic madeby Bertolucci. When Clerici and Guilia visit theQuadris, a large dog leaps up at them from theapartment door. Frightened. Guilia takes off down thestairs. Previously, as Clerici made his way to hismother's villa, a similar dog jumped up at him frombehind an iron fence. Safely protected by the bars hefeigned a return attack and bark. This time, however,he pats the dog as Anna Quadri calls down the stairsthat everything is alright, that “he never bitesfriends.” Recall the guardians of the Republic, named“noble dogs” because they are “gentle to their ownand cruel to enemies.”The character in the film who fits this description isSpecial Agent Magnaniello, sent to accompany Clericion his mission. Magnaniello is, as he explains in thekitchen of a Chinese restaurant, loyal to the familyand the state. Clerici, scared about his participation inthe impending murder, corrects that order ofpriorities, but it is clear that his insistence onideological exactitude is no match for Magnaiello’s,well, doggedness. His very lack of a questioning in¬telligence makes him the truly noble dog; he is firstand foremost a soldier for his country.The tyrannic man is described in the Republic as asodomist, incestuous, and as hesitating at no foulmurder; Clerici admirably fills this bill of particulars.His mother, addicted to morphine supplied by hergigolo chaufeur, hints at an Oedipal relationship whenfirst we meet her. In flashback, Bertolucci shows usClerici as a boy, rescued from a gang hazing by achauffeur, Lino. He allows himself to be lured, andthen is forced, into Lino's room by the promise of apistol. At first attracted by Lino’s long hair whichcomes tumbling out from under his cap, the boysuddenly grabs the gun and fires about wildly, leavingLino in a pool of blood on the floor.Of the utmost importance is the fact that Moravianever mentions Plato at all in his novel; everythingalluding to the Republic is Bertolucci’s own creation.Furthermore, the character of Clerici as latenthomosexual, Oedipal, and a murderer, is much more ablack-white matter to Moravia than to Bertolucci. Iwould say that Bertolucci also sees the grey half-(Continued on page 10)Friday, April 27,1973 - The Chicago Maroon - 9Blackfriars Lear at Mundane DramaBy DEBORAH DAVISONSpring and its theatre season come late in Chicago,but now, finally, you take a look around, and theflowers are up and blooming; so too. the next fewweeks are positively bursting with promisingopenings, locally and around the town. So, lest it alltake you too headily by surprise, I offer up anotherquarterly panoramic view, snatching a brief look atwhat’s slipped past, and making a stab at tydying upthe raucous horizon.First are some thoughts on the King Lear brought tous by the National Shakespear Company this pastSaturday night, courtesy of FOTA 1973. The house wasfull and brimming into the aisles, and the productionwas, overall, very well-received -quite un¬derstandable given to see one is a real treat. Greatactors and directors spend years saving up the energyand inspiration needed to put on their version ofHamlet, and usually it’s strictly a one-shot deal forany single company or star.But there is an obvious reason for this last whichshould not be lost sight of. regardless of how lucky onefeels at having the chance ‘to see life breathed intothose immortal words there on the verv stage' etc.Shakespeare’s plays are formidable, almost im¬possible, challenges to directors and actors because oftheir purity and integrity. And NSC has come alongand canned the purity and canned the integrity andbrought it to college campuses all over the country.Canned, you say? Yes, when Shakespeare’s linesare recited in near-perfect meter; when his old men(Lear, Glosteri are played for laughs; when Edmundthe evil bastard son is switched from antagonist tonarrator, his lines glossed from the plot into an ironicrunning commentary; when heroes turn hippy(Edgar, the valiant son. seemed a dull-witted versionof Arlo Guthrie, while The Fool slouched around thestage as if he were Abbie Hoffman’s adolescentbrother); and when, of all things, the archaic style ofspeech is ridiculed by an actor, who in so doingcompletely obscures the actual meaning of the linesfrom the hapless audience; when all these devices aresubstituted for even the most meager attempt at acoherent interpretation of the text, well then you’vegot canned Shakespeare, universally digestible and able to be efficiently distributed, but neverthelessthoroughly lacking in the energy, commitment, orsensitivity which alone matches actors and directorsto this caliber of play.In sum. this production deserved an audience, but itdoesn’t deserve critical acclaim, as there is, rightly,something distasteful about King Lear’s possiblybeing a money-maker’, ‘a big draw’, especially whenthe production is thoughtless and haphazard as thisone was. FOTA’s heart may be in the right place, butthey should beware of confusing high class materialwith high quality productions.* * *Meanwhile the weekend coming up brings us aBlackfriars show in a considerably lighter vein.Music, slapstick, and the triumph of good over evil arethe meat-and-potatoes of this original musical-comedv extravaganza, all satisfying fare on a warmspring night. The show opens tonight, 8:30 pm, atMandel Hall, and will run Saturday and Sunday April28-29, and also Friday and Saturday May 4-5; ticKeis$1.50.The show, Struggling Upward, is based on HoratioAlger’s Luke Larkin’s Luck, and features a cast of 50to help fill the spicier scenes, innovations which werebeyond the scope of Alger's fertile but neverthelessstrongly Victorian imagination. Marc Dorf stars asLuke Larkin, with Paul Helms as Linton Tomkins,Luke’s proverbial Best Friend; also Peggy Newcomeris the love interest, Peggy Finerty plays the mother-with-the heart-of-gold, and Dennis Navarra and RickRavfield portray the villanous banker and son. Someof the more expectable cameos are Bonnie Eggers asMelinda Sprague, the village gossio. Steve Holiday asJay Madison Coleman, the big-city sleazo who at¬tempts to divest the boy of his spare cash, PeterMeehan as a Chicago hotel clerk, and Dean Krone andMark Johnson playing Lucky Luke’s Benefactors.Blackfriars is something ot a local tradition in theseparts; back in its heyday, from the twenties through tothe war, it drew crowds from all around the city to itshigh-stepping shows. Sobriety befitting the onset ofWorld War II brought an end to the production, but in1955, after several unsuccessful attempts at revival, Blackfriars again appeared on campus with a newaddition—female cast members— and has put a showon annually ever since. Of this year’s production MikeDorf, its author, has said, “Not since the multi¬thousand dollar productions of the 1920’s has a Black¬friars show promised to be as much of a hit asStruggling Upward.” If history can repeat itself, hemight well be right.* * *University Theatre’s big month is May, with no lessthan five productions going up between the 10th andJune 3rd. On the weekend of the 10th through the 13thUT will open Harold Pinter’s The Caretaker, co¬directed by a group of University and communitypeople and starring UT notables Nick Rudall, KennethNorthcott, and Pat Billingsley. The joint directorshipof faculty by students is a highly innovative idea, andthe fewr glimpses I’ve gotten of the play in rehearsalsuggest that the finished product will be a refined,highly polished, and carefully interpreted piece,definitely worth planning to see.Following Caretaker are a series of student-directedproductions: Steve Menscher is directing a children'splay, The Phantom Tollbooth, to be presented themorning of May 19 in Hutch Court; the weekly actingclass will be performing scenes worked up during theyear in Reynolds Club on evening of May 19. LorenaKozan has written and choreographed a play entitled‘The Maids,’ or ‘Chaconne’, which will run May 24-27,and Roger Dodds closes the season with his productionof Beckett’s Endgame, to run June 1-3. All in all it’s arich harvest of promising shows, and all the veryneighborhood too.* * *The latter is actually quite a lucky thing, as thetheatrical pickings look slim in the Loop andelsewhere for the rest of the spring. Some shows,however, seem worth catching. Second City is stillrunning Tippecanoe & DejaVu, a collection in reviewof their best bits over the past few years. It’s veryfunny, and the acting is refreshingly frenetic for aauasi-slick theatre, so if you’ve never seen SecondCity, this production is definitely worth the money foryour first timeConformist: Political Tract and Pop Philosophy?(Continued from page 9)tones, were it not for the fact that The Conformist hassome of the richest, most sumptuous use of color everbrought to the screen.One conventional response to the Republic is that itpresents a Fascist, totalitarian scheme. Bertoluccihas the intelligence to realize that the Republic isreally a detailed analysis of the problem of thecommon good—more a yardstick than a proposal. Heknows also that precisely where the Republic seemscleareast is where the world in which we live ismurkiest. In a way, The Conformist might be looked atas an effort to blur those thoughts which in Plato arecast in high, exaggerated relief, the object being toillustrate the complexities of a concrete situation. Onthat score, it is notable that there really is not oneperfectly good or perfectly evil character in TheConformist.The professor is a hunchback and is portrayed as avariation on the theme of the impotent intellectual(though not nearly as strongly as in the book; thesame is true of all the other characters). He may be aprofessor of philosophy, and he may be presentlyengaged in political action, but he in no wayrepresents that coincidence of philosophy and politicalpower which is the philosopher-king. In exile with amimeograph machine and a band of earnest youngmen, he is tainted by nothing less, and nothing more,than a rather touching naivete. His killing imitates thetragic mode—he is stabbed to death as if he wereCaeser. In reality he is a pathetic, guileless man—thevictim of a pathetic, but guileful regime. Quadri maytheoretically be on the side of the angels, but hepresents the sorry spectacle of virtue unwilling orunable to use the sword.Anna Quadri is another of the damned. Shegenuinely loves the professor, who is ’wice her age, 'but her passions are obviously beyond the powers ofthe professor to satisfy. She is first drawn to Clerici by10 The Chicago Mproon Friday April 2V 1973 an animal recognition that he. like herself, is acreature operating outside of law—both beasts ratherthan gods. Her real interest turns out to be Clerici’swife, but she stands ready to sell her body to Clerici inexchange for his promise not to harm her husband.She is finally a victim of her passions.Clerici himself is, as they say, utterly withoutredeeming social value. He is a latent homosexual,Oedipal, manipulating, and completely unprincipled.The driving force behind him is a relentless desire fornormalcy. He wishes desperately to conform to hissociety; as it happens, that society is humanly per¬verse. For his initiation he must commit murder,betray his old professor. Clerici, however, seems bornto betrayal and cruelty. He marries a girl he does notlove. On his honeymoon he commits adultery. He w'hoearlier flouted the church is seen at the regime’s fallteaching his child her prayers. Immediately af¬terwards he goes out to meet the one friend left him,the blind man mentioned earlier. Despite the latter’spitiful cries for help, Clerici denounces him in thestreets and abandons him to the marching mobcelebrating Mussolini’s fall. He almost fitsMachiavelli’s definition of virtue; “to kill one’s fellowcitizens, betray friends, be without faith, without pity,without religion.” But Machiavelli expected that thesethings would bring one to power, if not to glory; Clericiturns out to be a coward and a failure.And so it goes. Clerici’s wife turns out to be no virgin(having had an affair from age 15 on with a 70 year oldman) and also a latent homosexual. Special AgentMagnaniello, defender of the corrupt regime, urinatesat the side of the road during the killing and complainsabout cowards (Clerici), Jews, and communists—allscum. The priest to whom Clerici confesses beforemarriage is not shocked at Clerici’s evil deeds, butonly that he never before felt the need to confess hissins—and absolve; him when he learns he is a Fascistagent. In fine, Bertolucci is telling us that Italy is rotten.Italy received Plato through the Romans and even¬tually came up with .Machiavelli. They murderedCaeser in great times; they play at murdering Caeserin lesser ones. The regime is corrupt. The church iscorrupt Even the people are corrupt; those busts ofMussolini which once floated past are finally draggedthrough the street on chains. Those who yesterdaycheered II Duce on are no doubt the very ones whocome marching through the streets in celebration ofhis downfall.To return to less philosophical levels, it must be saidthat The Conformist is much more than a politicaltract topped by some pop philosophy. To begin with, itis a beautiful to watch. Bertolucci has a very personal,very compelling sense of a film’s rhythm. Thephotography is of the first rank and the colors aregorgeous. All this has been edited by a master hand.The music is so well suited to the action that it is hardto believe that Bertolucci didn’t compose that too. Andthroughout there is a sinse of humor, wryness, andirony that seems fresh each time I see the film.Trintignant, Sanda, and Sandrelli are each a joy towalch. Even here a good deal of credit must go to thedirector. For an apt comparison one has only to seeTrintignant and Sanda sleepwalk through WithoutApparent Motive, under the hack direction of PhilippeLabro. On second thought, don’t bother.Last Tango In Paris opens May 3rd at McClurgCourt. On April 28th, the Playboy's midnight show' willbe The Conformist. Especially if you plan to see LastTango, do yourself a favor; take a nap, pop some no-doz, and trak on up to the Playboy tomorrow night. Ifnothing else, you’ll be able to pick out those scenes inThe Conformist used in Last Tango. Hint: the firstscene of The Conformist is worked into Last Tango,and the first scene of Last Tango is taken from TheConformist And when you figure out what theirconnection is, do let me know.Howard Stein Gets Out Your Ya-YasBy JUICE AND THE STARLast weekend, your ’umble concertreviewers endured two consecutiveevenings at Howard Stein's KineticPlayground. For those of you luckydevils who have managed to avoid it,the Kinetic Playground is Chicago’sstomping ground for the city’s fifteenyear olds that need desperately to gettheir ya-ya's out Unfortunately, thePlayground is the Midwest's futileattempt at a Fillmore of sorts: one hasno choice but to attend if he wishes toview rock and roll in the grey city. TheKinetic is a large, seat less box, whichecnos the performing band, and themore boisterous members of theaudience alike.On Friday night we were heatedand/ or treated to a concert byFrampton’s Camel and King Crimson.The third band on the bill, Spooky Toothapparently had cancelled at the lastminute. The concert began late withFrampton’s Camel, an offshoot ofHumble Pie—one wonders why twobands are now in existence to produceessentially the same sound in fact,Frampton often retraced his solo guitarlines from his days with Humble Pie;and we found ourselves waiting to hearold Pie songs, such “I Don’t Need NoDoctor.” The best we got was a treat¬ment of the good fuck and his back-upband’s “Jumping Jack Flash” We'lltake the good fuck anytimeTo compensate lor Spooky Tooth, whohad been extracted from the bill, theKinetic introduced an one and onequarter hour intermission. Theaudience was left to contend withdowner freaks, overflowing Johns, andan Easter Bunny, while the crewprepared the stage for King Crimson. As »he air-conditioner was not inoperation, the atmosphere of theKinetic approached that of a saunabath.King Crimson finally arrived. Theyare presently a vastly changed groupfrom “In the Court of the CrimsonKing” era, with only one of the originalmembers of the band King Crimsonnow features guitarist Bob Fripp. the‘original member'; Bill Bruford, for¬merly of Yes, on drums; John Wetton on:-.ax and vocals, formerly with Family;and Dave Cross on violin, viola andorgan. Their newly-acquired per¬cussionist did not perform with thegroup in concert King Crimson’sconcert -(insisted of a lengthenedversion of their new album. “LarksTongues in Aspics” and one nr two ofthe older songs which brought KingCrimson to public attention. As a whole,‘Larks Tongues in Aspics” is a syn¬thesis ot rock, and tree-form sounds,which is held together by intricaterhythem patterns.Less one fifth of their new ensemble,King Crimson demonstrated anamazing ability to duplicate thematerial from their new album. Theirmost melodic number. “Exiles” wasperformed with expertise; as was thetitle track from their new album.“Larks Tongue. Part l" Their encore,“Twentieth Centruy Schizoid Man” was:nc only acknowledgement of days ofold. and brought the stoned audience totheir feet. Perhaps on their next visit, toChicago. King Crimson will have tocontend with the marvelous Ampitheatre, rather than ’.he sweatyKinetic.We returned to the Kinetic onSaturday to view Hick Roberts.Trapeze, and Steve Miller This was undoubtedly the most ill-matched bill toplay Chicago, since the Eric Anderson,Mott the Hoople, the New Riders con¬cert last December Rick Roberts, anex-Burrito Brother, is a fine counfrv-rock talent. Accompanying Rick wasSneaky Pete, another long, lost Burrito.on steel pedal guitar. Rick Roberts’tightly delivered set was highlighted by“Deliver Me”, from his album “Wind-miils”. Sneaky Pete proved worthy ofhis title, as he managed to slip inseveral polished, guitar solo’s.Trapeze, yet another “up-and-climbing” English Band, played anunusually long set. Basically, it was alive rendition of their most recent ef¬fort “You’re the Music”; and con¬tained ’races of every prominantBritish Band in existence today. Gerryand the Pacemaker’s were con¬siderably more original.Having started off well, the eveningended with a roar as the Steve MillerBand hit the stage. The audience, in¬cluding yours truly, was on their feet assoon as Miller was announced—andwith good reason. The man really rocks.Moving from “Space Cowboy” and“Super Babe” to “Living in the USA”and “Blues With a Feeling”, Miller andhis band produced tight, lucid music.His set included a good “Crossroads”,and an acoustic version of “Going to theCountry”. His performance almostjustified our spending two nights at thePlayground.Perhaps last weekend typified !hestate of rock music in 1973. If “sow athousand seeds and get one flower” canbe applied to rock concerts, one gets thebasic idea. If you’re willing to play withthe odds, or you don't know anythingabout statistics, a trip to the Kineticmight be worthwhile. Carry some downers, and spare change, and youtoo. will have the opportunity to mergewith the mindless crowd.Juice and the StarHANDEL MALL8 ?0 RM.APRIL 17, 28,29MAY f,5based orv-tKeHoratio Alger novelLahkihs Lu*** students n-OTKERS $1S0Tickets at Handel SaxOffice & Student ActivitiesOffric*.book, lyrics, and wist*-- bvntkC DsrYHare Prin\aclcPaul Krutv£nid Richer University of Chicago Festival of the ArtsPresentsVauotian HJilliauis Gala ConcertDona Nobis PacemFantasia on 104th PsalmLark Ascending Serenade to MusicVvfestival ot 'lie nits Chorus and Professional ArchestLARRY MENOES.

April 27, 1973 The Chicago Maroon - 1 1The Russians arethe RussiansBy MARK GRUENBERGOne of the most extraordinary collections of modernart ever assembled in one place is currently on exhibitat the National Gallery of Art in Washington.Due to leave for New York after tomorrow, this is acollection of 41 Impressionist and Post-Impressionistpaintings on loan from museums in Moscow andLeningrad. The exhibit is well worth visiting if youhave the time, inclination and money. It will be worthit even more , when it comes to Chicago this summer.The paintings range over the full scope of styles andmoods evoked in the Impressionist and Post-Impressionist periods. Painters represented includeMatisse, Georges Braque, Picasso, Gauguin,Renoirand Van Gogh.For example, through the works of Gauguin ondisplay, one is able to see the progressive liberation ofcolor from form which was later to become charac¬teristic of his Tahitian art. This break was to become akey element of the periods covered, for if color can beliberated from form, can not form be likewiseliberated from conventional strictures? Bothliberations, occurring almost simultaneouslyprovided the beginnings of modern art as we know it.Yet another style shows through in one particularpainting by Renoir on display, Child with a Whip(1885). The exhibition face by drawing it with tightlinearity”Yet another style show's through in one particularpainting by Renoir on display, Child with a Whip(1885). The exhibition pamphlet noted Renoir“focussed attention on the boy’s face by drawing itwith tight linearity” in contrast to the remainder ofthe painting, which is somewhat hazy. Again this set adistinct style which would be later incorporated intoother Impressionist and Post-Impressionist art. Ofcourse, it doesn’t matter that once you do focus on thechild’s face, he looks somewhat dopey. The principleis the thing, and it is clearly enunciated.Cezanne's works in the exhibition were interestingto me for their interpretation of the concepts of per¬spective. Notable wras Mont Sainte-Victoire, painted! between 1896-98. The mountain literal!v looms over the Coming,are Comingviewer (the adjective which came to my mind was“royal”), and this is accomplished by reducing theperspective in a curious effect. The woods in front ofthe mountain are painted so that you think you arelooking at them out of your window, as Cezanne was.Immediately beyond them is Mont Sainte-Victoire, yetone gets the sense that there is nothing between thewoods dominating the foreground and the mountain inback. There should be something there, but Cezannehas removed it, emphasizing the mountain even morethan normally.Cubism is foreshadowed by a number of canvasses,notably Van Gogh’s Arena at Arles (1889), Matisse’sNymph and Satyr (1909) and Portrait of the Artist’sWife (1913) and Picasso’s Woman Drinking Absinthe(1901). Each is characterized by bodily shapes beingsomewhat rigid and geometricized, and set apart fromthe background of each canvas by heavy, thick lines.The figures are still recognizable as human, though,but they are not human figures in the sense that thefigure had been painted previously.It remained for Braque and Picasso to bring Cubisminto being, represented here by the former’s TheChateau at La Roche-Guyon (1909) and the latter’sYoung Woman (1909). The chateau is definitely there,yet the Cubist technique, by leaving the viewer with ageometrical definition of a chateau, and no more,heightens the viewer’s consciousness of it. It forcesthe viewer to look at the chateau anew as he strains topick out a detail.There are other periods and movementsrepresented in the exhibition, but time and spacepermit me no more than a brief mention of some ofthem—Picasso’s Blue period. Flauvism (which Inever understood, save that the representativepainting, Andre Derain’s The Road in the Mountains,was a very curious affair) and finally, cubism carriedto the extreme in Fernand Leger’s Composition(1918). Leger constructed a Cubist painting solely lorits own sake—i.e. there was no subject. Nothing wasrecognizable, and this reviewer quickly becamedisinterested. Many other famous painters and ex¬cellent paintings not mentioned herein are also in¬cluded in the exhibition, and since it covers the periodof growth and development of Impressionsim andPost-Impressionism, it is worth viewing if only forthat fact.Mendes to Conduct Vaughn-WilliamsThis Sunday at 3:30 PM in RockefellerChapel, the Festival of the Arts willpresent a concert commemorating the100th anniversary year of the Britishcomposer Ralph Vaughan-Williams.Larry Mendes (A.B. ’71, J.D. ’74) willconduct. Mr. Mendes is on the musicstaff of Rockefeller Chapel and theChicago Children's Choir. Two yearsago he conducted a performance ofHandel’s Theodora. Last year heconducted the Chicago premiere ofHindemith's Organ Concerto. TheVaughan-Williams celebration is inkeeping with his interest in thepromotion of neglected masterpieces.Ralph Vaughan-Williams (1872-1958)was one of the most important com¬posers in English history. He wasparticularly noted for his extensiveresearch into English folk-music andthe English and German Baroqueperiods. His compositions reflect thisbackground His output includedsymphonies, solo compositions formany kinds of instruments, operas, vocal music, ballet, and choral music.Although some of his works have gainedpopularity, most have not been giventhe exposure that they deserve. This isespecially true in Chicago. The sym¬phonies are seldom performed. Only hischurch music has been given sub¬stantial exposure. Even during this100th anniversary year the ChicagoSymphony Orchestra has notprogramed a Vaughan-Williamssymphony.Probably the main reason for neglectis that Vaughan-Williams is a recentcomposer. An analogous situation wasthat of Gustav Mahler. For many yearsafter his death his works were seldomperformed. Only during the past decadedid they achieve general popularity.Mahler’s time has come. It would nothave come had not conductors such asBruno Walter and Leonard Bernsteinpersisted in programing his worksirregardless of box office appeal.Popular acceptance must be built. Itseldom appears automatically.Through this Sunday’s concert theFestival of the Arts hopes to make some contribution towards the building ofVaughan-Williams’ popularity. Mr.Mendes believes in the merit of thecomposer. He believes that Vaughan-Williams’ time will come.This Sunday’s program includes twoworks that are popular and two worksthat have been neglected. The CantataDona Nobis Pacem is a powerfulstatement for peace. It’s text includesbiblical passages and poetry of WaltWhitman. The Serenade To Music waswritten for sixteen vocal soloists. Itstext is a passage from Shakespere’sMerchant of Venice, the Lark Ascen¬ding is a romance for violin and or¬chestra. The Fantasia On the 104thPsalm Tune is for piano, chorus andorchestra. It is a joyous work similar toBeethoven’s Choral Fantasia.The works will be performed by anoutstanding array of vocalists and in¬strumentalists. The fifty-two pieceorchestra is professional and includesmembers of the Chicago SymphonyOrchestra, Lyric Opera Orchestra, theContemporary Chamber players, and the Grant Park Symphony. ArnoldBrostoff of the Chicago SymphonyOrchestra will be violin soloist. SheldonShkolnick will be the pianist. Mr.Shkolnick has concertized extensivelyhere and abroad. He has performed theVaughan-Williams Fantasia with theHandel Haydn Society and the BostonSymphony Orchestra. The sixteen vocalsoloists include some of Chicago’s mostprominent artists. The sopranos areLethia Bryant, Elsa Charlston, SheilaHarms, and Janice Hutson. The tenorsare Donald Bergeim, Joseph Brewer,Gerald Scott, and Niles Smith. The altosare Mignon Hickman, Isola Jones,Maureen Mullally, and PhyllisUnosawa. The basses are PhillipGraver, David Nisstad, Samuel Sheffer,and Andrew Smith. Mrs. Harms andMr. Andrew Smith will also be soloistsin Dona Nobis Pacem. The forty voicechorus includes members of theRockefeller Chapel Choir, UniversityChorus, Chicago Symphony Chorus, andvarious church choirs.All of this is free this Sunday April29th at 3:30 PM in Rockefeller Chapel.FSACCSL Deadline Today!f Yt'-'WbWtctikbfticirdOn - Frida^/April Tt! ’1973Caesar & Coca Vs. Pop CatastropheBy DAVE KEHRI wouldn’t have believed it if I hadn’tseen it. Television used to be good. TenFrom Your Show of Shows, now at thePlayboy theater, is a compilation of(you guessed) ten sketches from YourShow of Shows, a ninety minute weeklyprogram that ran from 1951 to 1954.Stars Sid Ceasar, Imogene Coca, CarlReiner, and Howard Morris, writersMel Tolkin, Lucille Kallen, Mel Brooks(and some unknown named WoodyAllen) and Producer-Director MaxLiebman somehow managed to put outa new musical comedy revue everyweek for a hundred and sixty weeks,without ever sinking to the level of whatpasses as entertainment of televisionthese days. It’s possible that Caesar andCoca did it all, that there just wasn’tanything left to the medium after theywere through with it. The intensity ofcreativity that must have been requiredto produce a live weekly show of suchquality seems incredible to us now, wewho spent our television-watching yearswith dreck like The Beverly Hillbilliesand My Favorite Martian. The historyof television after Caesar must havebeen one long devolution, each suc¬cessive program neccessarily fallingbelow the one that came before, untilLaugh-in set the lower limit.The ten sketches selected for the filmcover the range of television comedy,from the domestic situation of“Breaking the News”, (Coca tries to tella volatile Caesar that she’s run the carthrough a liquor store) to a Mel Brooksdouble talk interview (Reiner confrontsCaesar in the guise of Professor WernerVon Klopsnagel), the movie parody(“From Here to Obscurity”), and thebrilliant mime of pieces like “TheClock” and “The Sewing MachineGirl”.In one sketch, Caesar arrives late foran afternoon recital. His shoes squeek. his chair creeks, he cracks his knucklesmaking a sound like a man stomping ona bag full of walnuts, while Cocaglowers at him with desperate intensity.He offers Coca a cigarette, snaps thecase down on his finger, and with anexpression lik. a man who’s just seenhis life pass before his eyes leaves theroom with utmost dignity and poise torelease what sounds like the originalprimal scream. He comes back, tries tolight his cigarette with one .of thoselighters shaped like a gun, and shootsthe man sitting next to him. And it getsfunnier, much funnier. Ceasar, juststanding there on the stage, is funnierthan Carol Burnett, or who ever it isthat’s considered the hottest thing onTV now. could ever think of being.Your Show of Shows has been drapedin the shroud of nostalgia by most of thereviewers, who probably find that sortof thing easier to talk about than tryingto get Ceasar's style down on paper,which is practically impossible. There’s no nostalgia about it. The oldKinetoscopes preserve the immediacyand vivacity of the live program almostperfectly. Your Show of Shows mayhave gone off the air when I was twoyears old, but sitting in that theater wasjust like seeing it now, happening for thefirst time. I don’t know if Sid Caesarwas really the funniest man in Americain 1952, but he sure as hell is the funniestman in Chicago right now.Soylent Green seems to have sprungfully grown from the fevered brain ofsome more than unusually neuroticSierra Club disciple.

What is the ChicagoMoving Company up to? Where is itnow? And where will it be going? Inshort, is the Chicago Moving Companymoving?But the easiest question to answerconcerns the past, not the future. It’sclear where the Chicago MovingCompany is coming from. Take WUMP,for example, as performed last Fridaynight at the Columbia College DanceCenter. Choreographed by the directorof the company, Nana Shineflug,WUMP begins in darkness, broken withthe electronicesque music of EarleBrown as four dancers stand in onegroup of three, leaving the last dancer,the outsider, standing alone. Stark.Motionless. A burst of electronic musicand a quick burst of movement. Notpretty movement, but a movement ofabstraction and hardened edges. Likethe music, with its sudden bursts offrenzied sound against a background ofsilences, the dancers move in spurts.A sudden and explosive combinationof Teachings and falls, tumbles andreconstructions grows intomotionlessness, itself a movementgiven the particular context and intent.WUMP develops contrapuntally andresolved in an outsider falling into theslow rise and fall of a heap of archeddancers piled together and united bytheir group breathing.Martha Graham, did you hear that?As one of the prime forces in thedevelopment of what is now anestablished form of art—modern dance,Martha Graham has fixed a certainsensibility into the vocabulary of dance.As a technique, her’s was based onbreathing. Let the body follow its ownnatural movements, the na*urai “ebband flow’’, and then build thosemovements naturally into contractionsand expansions. Of course, Graham’sdevelopment of technique was basedaround her desire to express the terror,ecstasy and agony of the human spirit.The technique served as the vehicle forher expression, changing as her ex¬pressive concerns evolved. Not herexpressive concerns but her techniquehas become fixed in the grammar ofdance.The results of this phenomena arepieces like WUMP which employ thenow “traditional” Graham technique.The purpose0 For the technique Itself?Sometimes yes, and sometimes no. In the case of WUMP I would be hardpressed to find an expressive nugget,and certainly didn't feel one. However itis possible that WUMP was an exampleof anti-expression; movement for itsown sake, not out of life but out 01movement. Yet I’ve never reallybelieved in “anti-expression.” LikeCamus’ “non-style”, the bleached,mechanistic and abstracted modes ofmodern dance are their own expressivestatement. In literature Camus’ poweris in his style, with the emotionalmeaning and tone emerging from his“non-style.” In the Chicago MovingCompany, this antiexpressivepossibility wasn't there. There issomething of the classical balletpresence in their “modern” technique.In the final analysis, the power of theanti-expressionist must come from thefull and total negation of present-daymotifs and styles. It must appear to beanti-style if it is to establish itself as the“Correct” style for a new time. In theChicago Moving Company, the groupappears fixed within the present-daymotifs and styles. Hence they can’t beanti-expressive, at least not powerfully.Quartet, another piece performed onApril 20th, is the real give away. Set tothe music of Frances Poulenc, itmirrored the aesthetic stance of thegroup. Poulenc was affected, as weremany of the French of his day (about1920’s) with American jazz. His par¬ticular musical “talent” involved themixing of traditional European musicalidioms with this new“thing”—American jazz. Yet in hismusical output there is a dilletantishquality of the French classicist lightlytoying with chic jazz. This beaux artsGershwin is thin and unrewarding. As amusical object, his output is rathercampy to us today, with a light and oh-so-delicious feeling. But this interest isonly based on the history of style.Similarly, Quartet is of interest only forits comment on style.Quartet is a funny kind of ballet-likepiece. Parody? Paisley tutuish andfilled with ballet-like and classical duetsand leaps, this little piece might beretitled, Ditty. With a prissy kind ofmock drama, the possible humor is inthe re-working of the old sensibility bythe new sensibility. “How funny,” onemight think, “that a modern dancegroup would be doing this ballet stuff.They sure do make it look studpid, don’tthey?”But the plain truth is that they didn’tmake ballet look funny. In fact, theytook on this ballet-like sensibility withgreat ease, embracing the classicalattitude and dancing it out withpassion— ballet passion. That isn’t funny.The result of Quartet is the betrayal ofthe real sensibility of this group andhence their main talent— displayingdance styles. Take Harry Laird forexample. As the featured dancer, ofsorts, he is strikingly handsome and asa dancer handles the stage with ease.But within the context of the“aesthetic” of the Chicago MovingCompany he comes off as a 1973Nureyev. Lovely to look at,breathtaking to watch but depleated ofany guts. Within this company thedancer becomes an object ofstyle—beautiful, no doubt, but as adancer, nothing more.Any hope for more than style weredashed with the performance of Drive.Through its familiar uses of sound inmodern dance, the dancers cris-crossedthe stage on all fours slapping the flooralong with the beat of the tymponi. Thetitle tells all. The drive of Drive was thebeating, over and over, of a stylecement which was INTENDED tosupport the various combinations andcontrapuntal developments within thepiece.When not actually echoing the drive ofthe tymponi, the dancers showed theeffects of the drive with movements youmight imagine yourself doing onceinside a tymponi. This interplay bet¬ween the drive and “being shook”produced a stylishly beautiful piece yetwithout expressive function.This expressive vacumm was bestdisplayed in Protein. Very popular andvery cute, this delightfuly conceivedpiece dances out the formation ofprotein, as revealed to thechoreographer, Lynn Colburn, by herchemistry professor. The simplicity ofthe “literary” content helped the grouprelax within an aesthetic structure ofclear and limited purpose. The piecewas intended to be nothing more than asimple dancing out of the chemicalphenomena. That this project was donewith such relaxed joy and ease made itthe most popular and digestible, as wellas the most telling piece.The Chicago Moving Company workswell when it limits itself to emotionalexpression of movement. Where theyfind themselves most uncomfortable isin the use of movement as an expressionof emotion. Their own work seems bestfitted for pieces like Protein in whichmembers act out different elements. “Iam Carbon.”But would Martha Graham ever playthe part of a carbon atom? She mightdescribe Protein as a recasting of thetraditional ballet sensibility. Ms.Graham was interested in ending thesuperficial, the glib polish and the in¬ nate decorative fluff of dance. She sawit in ballet. We see it in the ChicagoMoving Company. “I do not want to be atree”, she once said, “I do not want tobe a flower, or a wave. In the dancer’sbody, we as audience must see our¬selves; not the limited behavior ofeveryday actions, not the phenomena ofnature, not the exotic creatures fromanother planet, but something of themiracle- that is a human being,motivated, discipined, concentrated.”(Selma Jeanne Cohen, The ModernDance).Martha Graham’s answers to her owncreative problems, her solution indance, has become too familiar and, inthe hands of those who use it for itselfand not for the expression of them¬selves, it becomes a new dance surfacewithout depth. In large part, this is thecase with the Chicago Moving Com¬pany. They are dealing with the styles.Yet they are a beautiful group. HarryLaird dances well, as does LynnColburn. They have the possibility ofgrowing into a vital and importantChicago dance company once theyemerge from their self-consciousconcern with technique and style. Stop“being dancers” when you dance.Search for that bit of truth and honestyinside that will produce its owntechniques. Take that hard, painful stepand re-examine everything you havedone and do now. Re-examine it andask, “Why?”What’s the answer to the mystery, Isthe Chicago Moving Company moving?Yes, in its own way, it is moving. Atpresent it finds itself almost trapped bythe art it practices. And about thefuture? That depends on the force andartistic power of their director NanaShineflug as well as on the artisticconcern of the dancers themselves. Wecan only hope that they will grow,develop their own possibilities, andproduce that which comes from only thehardest of self-determined drives—art.The Stone-Camryn Ballet company willgive its annual spring recital tonight at8:30 and Sunday afternoon at 3 in the St.Alphonsus Athenaeum Theatre onSouthport and Lincoln Avenues.The Chicago Dance Group, directed byElvi Moore, will perform at theColumbia College Dance Centertomorrow night at 8.

Unlike manypoets who weaken with morepublication, his eighth book is just asenjoyable as his first or second.Nemerov establishes his forte early inthe book. His best work is to be found inthe longer poems where he has room toexpand from the specific, usuallypersonal, to the general. His shorterpoems, usually three to six lines long,are only passingly interesting; manyare merely mediocre.The book is divided into four parts;the first section basically concernsitself with the meamng of the arts,creativity, and religion. The first poem,called “Quaerendo Invenietis,” acts asa definition of th- Structure and thepurpose of poetry. Nemerov sees poetryas an integral part of human existence:“Your unthought thoughts are changesstill unread/ In me, without whomnothing’s to be said.’’In “Lines & Circularities,” originallywritten for The New York TimesSpecial Supplement on Records andRecordings, Nemerov explores arelationship which he draws betweenthe universe and the record of Bach’sSixth Suite playing on the turntable. Theanalogy is strained, but the first threelines describe the music well: “Deep ina time that cannot come again/ Bachthought it through, this lonely andimmense/ Reflexion wherein oursorrows learn to dance.” Section 2, mostly short poems, rangeswidely in topic—from writing to thehistory of hair. “On Getting out ofVietnam” likens American involvementin the Vietnam War to the sending ofyouths to the Minotaur, a rather in¬teresting comparison. However, most ofthe poems in this section are just notthat interesting.The best poems in the book are to befound in section 3. An example ofNemerov’s best writing can be seen in“September, the First Day of School.” In it, he leaps from the act of taking hisson to the first day of school to his ownearly life to the ultimate separation ofchild from parent. Nemerov remem¬bers all too well the pains of his earlyeducation, especially for one with hisgifts. (“That dream got him suchhatred of his brothers/ As cost thegreater part of life to men,/ And yetgreat kindness came of it in the end.”But even so, he sees cause for rejoicingin the midst of his pain—his gift hasproven beneficial. Nemerov sees that school can crush,but he realizes the necessity of learningin order that one might ascent to higherlevels. He is not sure how his child willdevelop, but he is hopeful: “I know myhope, but do now know its form....”The poem ends with a note ofparallelism back to the middle of thepoem. Once again, Nemerov sees thenecessity of a painful experience—theseparation of the child’s life from that ofthe parents: “Nor hope to know it. Maythe fathers he finds/ Among histeachers have a care of him/ More thanhis father could. How that will look/ I donot know, I do not need to know./ Evenour tears belong to ritual./ But maygreat kindness come of it in the end.”“On Being Asked for a Peace Poem”is his strongest poem in the book. In it,he rejects the concept of a poem as apolitical force, especially against war.Nemerov destroys the average poet whoattempts to create political poems. It isa straightforward poem, and one thatshould be read. (However, Nemerovalso sees the necessity of the poet beingpolitically aware and active in his shortpoem “Epitaph.”)The last section concerns itself withdying with a slight hint of rebrth. “LateButterflies” is a good example; itreads, “Now there’s the end/ Coming,November/ Coming, storms/ Of iceand snow.” However, most of the poemslack the complex intrigue of section 3.The book is good; there is little doubtabout it. Nemerov knows his trade,and he can write some excellent poetry.I that Gnomes & Occasions is as good abook of poetry as any currently beingpublished Scott Schiff ItFactory AuthorizedDealerSAABL VolkswagenSouth-Shore Inc7234 S.

Inside he felt revulsion atwhat he saw. Revulsion and scorn. Infact he wanted to puke. Then he brokeinto the opening chorus of “StreetFightin Man” and the crowd wentnuts...Bernadine Dohrn looked over thebobbing heads of her generation at thewrithing frail figure of Jagger, givinghead to an electronic engine, dark godof the revolt, ambisexual hero of thepost-pubertv birth pangs of an entireworld ripped on drugs, sex and politicalmadness.

Pig cops learand rut as they smash tender raven¬haired frosh fillies at the co-op...Tenderbruised woman revolutionaries turn toeach other lor warmth and solace, noteven finding what they need in the ruderutting technique of Rudd or Rubin...So Bernadine turned to a sister forhelp, a former high echelon N.Y.groupie who had seen the Women’s LibLight one cold unforgotten night in thebedroom of the highest of the high, thegreatest of the great...one who must goun-named at this time for fear of theinternational repercussions should hisdark secret see the new morning...And so. with a razor blade strapped tothe inside of her thigh this sister- oneLava Lush by nickname—made herway into the inner circle of the greatJagger. where she had always beenwelcome and indeed had spent many aday and hour, basking in the gray lightof that isolated ego who had become astar...Mick was worried because the Stonesweren’t selling enough records. Theirconcerts were successful enough, theywere celebrated figures on both con¬tinents and even into the Orient...But for some reason the fans shied awayfrom laying out coin for the magicplastic pancakes. And if you couldn’tmove product, how could you really be astar? Beatles moved product—moreproduct than had found motion since theinvention of the LP. And God knowseven Zappa could move product, and hedid it without airplay. But the Stones,the number one group in the world nowthat the lads from Liverpool hadstepped apart (Led Zep didn’t count;even tho they moved a lot of product andeven influenced the big rock polls, theyw'ere still third stringers in Jagger’seves), the Almighty Rolling Stonescould not sell records!Mick mused upon these things as hesucked hash smoke through an ex¬pensive hookah that had belonged (itwas said) to liassan Sabban himselfLava Lush lay naked beside him,fingering the flaxen pubic hair of thestar, now fingering the brown rubberyshaft itself that had knowm both bungand vage..

He reached casually forthe girl’s tits. The girl thrust forwardyoung firm breasts with perky rednipples, tanned all over. To Jagger’sjaded eyes the breasts w'ere a pair ofsand dunes tipped by the morning sun.“Baby,” said Mick Jagger, “what apair you have...why do you bother tow'ear a bra?”Lava grinned. “For seductive pur¬poses.

Me, I wouldn’t know Girls don’tlook a bit sexy to me.” (Forgetting thethree nites and days she had spent withBernadine the Bold) She glanced downat her youthful upthrusting tits. “Tits.

I can’t see how anyone wouldfind tits interesting...”Jagger let his eyes roam up and downthe golden tawny perfection of her body.She looked like she’d been dipped inbronze paint—except for the dark red ofher nipples, the lighter red of her lips,and the deep w ide emerald crystals ofher eyes...He didn’t notice the crumpledmasking tape under a flap of theblanket. Nor did he notice the concealedrazor blade moving toward histesticles...He kissed the tawny hollow of herthroat. She rolled and w'rithed beneathhis lips, slowly, sensuously, like a ship rocking gently in an almost im¬perceptible swell. An almost im¬perceptible smell rose to Mick’s nose,and he reached over to flick on StrayCat Blues which lay waiting on theAmpex...“This is pretty silly,” said the girl.“Most of it’s lifted from a cheap pornnovel I bought (sic) at City Lights,”said Mick, squeezing her tight, his sea-eagle talons gripping her like athrashing fish—only she was no coldfish.

P. Dutton, $8.95Richard Stern’s seventh book offers,among other things, political com¬mentary, personality sketches, literarycriticism, a short play, and five more orless autobiographical sketches. All 57pieces are brief (none extending beyond16 pages), and their quality ranges fromvery fine to mediocre.Beyond general, brief discussionsabout Vietnam, there is little that isovertly political in the political essays.When, in writing about a President or Secretary of State, Stern mentions theirpolicies, it is usually only a means ofdescribing their humanity (or lack ofit). For instance, when he attempts tointerview Kennedy and Nixon in theyear before both became Presidentialcandidates, it is “to try to talk...notabout affairs of state but about theirintellectual and imaginative ex¬perience, the books they’d been movedand instructed by.”Some of the profiles of non-politicalpersons share this incompleteness.However, those of the warm, English E.M.

One ofthese is a trenchant two-page autobiography. In the other sketches, helaments the enormous amount ofrevision he must do, describes for ahumanities class how he works out astory, defends being a professor as an“outside job” for a writer, and com¬ments on “the special nature of thewriter’s protest to governmentalpolicy.”“Aurelia Frquenza Reveals the HeartSTUDENT OMBUDSMAN, 1973-74The University is now seeking applicants for the post of Student Ombudsman.Although the Ombudsman’s term of office will not begin until Autumn 1973, heor she will be expected to work with the 1972-73 Student Ombudsman throughthe remainder of the academic year.Applications from individual students are welcome, as are recommendationsfrom individual students or other student groups.

The six shortblackouts of ‘‘Dossier: Earth” revealvarious insanities of public andeveryday life. Although commissionedfor the Lincoln Center RepertoryTheater, one can easily see them per¬formed by Second City.One of the two ‘‘Chicago Exhibits” isa wry recording of two ModernLanguage Association conventions heldin Chicago, but it is the other exhibit,‘‘Chicago: Mostly a Love Letter,” thatproves to be more interesting. Writtenfor The Sun-Times, it describes histransformation from a New Yorkprovincial to a lover of Chicago. Thislyrical portrait of the vitality andseaminess of the Second City contains,amidst other matters, a summary of athirty-five minute conversation withHizzoner.Without a doubt, the best section ofthe book is that devoted to literarycriticism. The essay on the distinctions between art and actuality, and thepractical and creative artists (“Events,Happenings, Credibility, Fictions”) iswell-written, thought out, and to betaken seriously. In his reviews, Sternremains aware of the faults in bookspraised and of the virtues of worksdamned. His approach remains con¬sistently original: unknown works aresingled out for attention, and novelshailed by other critics are masterfullyallowed to destroy themselves—inparticular, Doctor Zhivago, Couples,and Nabokov’s Pnin. It should come asno surprise, though, that Stern hadnothing but good to write of Henderson,the Rain King (after all, Bellow and hehave to exist together on the samecampus).Stern’s criticism is at its most en¬joyable when devoted to the remarkabletrio largely responsible for creating themodern literary era: Eliot, Joyce, andPound. His account of how Eliot“stumbled into modernity” with thehelp of Pound provides a new insight for readers of The Waste Land, and areview of a biography of Joyce deftlysketches some of the complexity andineffability of the great personality thatwas Joyce. But it is Stern’s presentationof Pound that sticks in one’s memory:the tireless editor, discoverer, andhelper of everyone from Joyce to Eliotto Hemingway, the brilliant translatorof innumerable languages, and the exileof St. Elizabeth’s and Italy.Much of the detail appearingthroughout the selection has specialsignificance for past and presentmembers of the University: the footnotethat “A Statement on Students,Discipline, Curriculum, the Universityand Society, with a Postscript on Love”was turned down by a Maroon delugedby statements relating to the sit-in, themention of a poetry reading against theVietnam war held in Mandel Hall, andthe appearance of Vice-President Nixonat the dedication of the Law Schoolserve as examples. Hyde Parkers willbe the only ones able to agree or disagree with a number of statements,such as the ones in “Chicago: Mostly aLove Letter”: “There is a sense here inHyde Park of that ‘Common life for anoble end’ which is neither smug, cozy,nor intrusively collective...” and “Mybiased guess is that it’s as good auniversity as any in the country.”The two major faults that anysignificant number of the pieces fallprey to are triviality and a lack ofanything that is really said. For in¬stance, the first four-fifths or so of “InPursuit of Washington” merely relatethe runaround he received there (nevergetting to interview Kennedy or Nixon),and we see only Nixon, finally, at aquestion-and-answer session with thefaculty. “Storm Over the Universities”is not a statement on student protest,but rather a four-page apology; itsinclusion was a mistake.Nonetheless, most pieces are free ofthese faults. Most of the selections arewell done and interesting; the criticismis especially to be recommended.Curtis JohnsonPHERE'S YOUR CHANCETO LAUGH HYSTERICALLY!"*★★★*★!

GreeleySchocken, $7.95Less than a decade ago manysavants, such as Harvey Cox in TheSecular City and Thomas Altizer inRadical Theology and the Death of God,were proclaiming the imminent demiseof religion and the death of God. To thechagrin of some and the delight ofothers, that mood has dramaticallychanged to a resurgence of interest inand commitment to astrology, witch¬craft, fundamentalist Christianity(especially the “Jesus People”),Eastern religion, and a wide assortmentof other beliefs and cults that should suitthe “spiritual ’ taste of nearly anyone.How is one to account for this“religious revival” and “quest forsalvation” in what everyone knows is amodern, progressive, and secularAmerica? Andrew M. Greeley’s newbook, Unsecular Man: The Persistenceof Religion, is a direct attack onprecisely this question. His book is anelaboration of his basic thesis that“. . .the basic human religious needsand the basic religious functions havenot very notably changed since the lateIce Age; what changes have occurredmake religious questions more criticalrather than less critical in the con¬temporary world ”Greeley persistently, and somewhatabrasively, challenges the “con¬ventional wisdom” which is one of thesources of the surprised confusion overthe recent rebirth of religiosity. Theconventional wisdom, according toGreeley, is based on the assumptionthat through the process of continual,unidirectional, and irreversibleevolution man becomes more and moresecular and rational. Furthermore,society is progressively being trans¬formed from Gemeinschaft (com¬munities characterized by intimatepersonal relationships) to Gesellschaft(societies based on utilitarian andmerely contractual relationships) typestructures which create a sense ofdehumanization and anomie. Integral tothis process is the relegation of religionto the status of superstition andirrationality. Greeley categoricallyrejects the conventional wisdombecause it is unable to account for theempirical facts of the persistence ofreligion among nearly everyone exceptthe intellectual elite and therecrudescence of religion among theyoungGreeley does not, of course, arguethat change has not taken place in themodern world; however, he argues that this change has made religiousproblems more central and more dif¬ficult. Three changes deserve notice.First, religious pluralism demands thata person make a choice among manycompeting “interpretative schemes” orreligions. Second, religious myths arenot self-evident and illuminating; in¬deed, interpretation is required for themyth to have relevance to one’s life.Third, personal relationships are morecomplex and diversified in modernsociety, but primary ties (such as thefamily and ethnic groups) continue,even in advanced societies, to form thefoundation on which these diverse andutilitarian relationships are madepossible.Greeley is particularly scornful ofintellectuals who, under the guise ofscholarship, view the religious beliefsand practices of the middle class, forinstance, as atavistic obstacles to"progress.” Greeley asserts that thesescholars and their conventional wisdomare simply inadequate to comprehendthe nature of the human condition whichrequires some kind of comprehensivesystem of meaning. Religion persistsbecause it meets basic human needswhich have not changed in the processof secularization and modernization. Hedevotes individual chapters to thefollowing five fundamental functions ofreligion:1.“Religion provides man with a“faith’ or, to use the sociological ter¬minology, a meaning system which-enables him to cope with the question ofthe Ultimate. 2. “Religion provides man with somefeeling of belonging with the communalgroup whose members share ultimatecommitments and through that sharingprovide strong basic support for oneanother.3. “Religion strives to integrate withthe rest of human life the profound anddisturbing forces of human sexuality.4. “Religion offers man a channel forcoming into intimate contact with thePowers that are real, a contact which isfrequently mystical and even ecstatic.5. “Religion provides man withcertain leaders whose role is to provideboth comfort and challenge when manattempts to wrestle with the Ultimate.”Most crucial to the book, in thereviewer’s opinion, is Greeley’streatment of religion as a system ofmeaning Greeley acknowledges thatscience now answers many of thequestions and explains manyphenomena that were once the domainof religion. However, there are facets oflife that are opaque to the scientificperspective. The problem of whatClifford Geertz calls “bafflement” iscentral because man needs to be able tofind order and harmony in his world.Greeley quotes Geertz when he writes:“To explain those things which cry outfor explanation, man lias an ex¬planatory apparatus—the complex ofreceived culture patterns (commonsense, science, pmlosophicalspeculation, myth) that one has formapping the empirical world. Anychronic failure ol one’s explanatory apparatus tends to lead to a deepdisquiet.”The problems of moral evil andhuman suffering are also explicableonly in a system of meaning that is, bydefinition, beyond empiricalverification. “The conventional wisdomis quite wrong.” Greeley charges,“when it says that ultimate meaning isno longer required by secular man. If ithad argued, somewhat more modestly,that secular man—or at least manliving in the contemporary world—hasto go through the agony of elaboratinghis own meaning system it would havebeen much closer to the truth.”Not only has man’s need for a systemof meaning not atropied. but man’s“mythopoetic” proclivities, likewise,are necessary for a meaningful lifeMyth “is a comprehensive view ofreality” which explains and interpretslife and provides the rituals by whichman may maintain contact with reality.Myth, needless to say, does not giveman “historical” truth, but "existen¬tial" truth, truth essential to face theenigmas of life. Greeley summarizesvividly when he writes “Modern man,like his archaic predecessor, needs faith,community, myth, ethics which reflectthe nature of reality, an opportunity toexperience the sacred, and particularlyto understand sexuality as sacred, andreligious leadership which willfacilitate his interpretation of themeaning of life.”Greeley’s relentless refutation of the“conventional wisdom” tends tobecome rather tedious at times.Greeley admits, however, that his bookis a “dissent” from the prevailingtheories of religion and secularization.Altough Greeley's penchant for polemicintrudes at times, it does add vigor andsharpness to the argument. Thisreviewer believes that Greeley’s ex¬tremely long quotations break thesmoothness of his ow n pace, but there isa major compensation for this in that hehas filled the book with extensive ex¬cerpts from the writings of some of themost creative thinkers in the field ofreligion today (such as Mircea Eliade,Clifford Geertz, Robert Bellah.Langdon Gilkey, and many others) inhis attempt to argue for the salience ofreligion for modern man. Few' willagree entirely with Greeley’s con¬clusions, but everyone who reads thisbook will be stimulated to a seriousreconsideration of his own views of thepervasive realities of religion andmodernity.—Lewis R.

Harper in Harper Court- . 383-1800iwomen’s studiesThe Autobiography of Mother JonesMother JonesCharles Kerr & Co., Chicago, $2.95I come from a Pennsylvania farmingcommunity, from a valley which issurrounded by the mining towns inwhich Mother Jones organized. Thefarmers had been there almost twocenturies before the miners arrived,and I imagine there was a great deal ofhostility expressed. As late as twentyyears ago, the farmers would still talkabout any stranger driving through as a“honky,” meaning a non-Protestantnon-farmer from one of the miningtowns. People with names such asSteigerwalt and Beibleheimer, whospoke Pennsylvania Dutch first andEnglish second and with a thick Ger¬man accent, looked down on theBeblavys, Balagoshs and Maloneys whospoke English with a slightly differentbut no more unintelligible accent.It makes me wonder if. had it been Istanding in the doorway of my farm¬house, wiping my hands on my apron,I would have gossiped with Mrs. Mid-dlecamp, cursing the dirty foreignminers and the outside agitators wholed them to strike. Would I have stoodthere cursing the labor organizers whowere the ancestors of the man that themodern me would marry? Who knows?Such are the accidents of history.Mother Jones herself may have beena real accident of history. She was afantastically tough , gifted labororganizer from the 1870’s until her deathin 1930, but she began life as an ordinaryIrish immigrant, married an ironmoulder, and bore four children in sixyears. What probably changed her lifewas the death of her husband and fourchildren, all struck down in a yellowfever epidemic in Memphis in 1867. Theunion buried her husband, her childrenwere carried away on the death carts,and she went out to nurse the sick.Mother Jones soon found herself inChicago, working as a dressmaker,sewing fancy clothes in a shop onWashington near the lake. Mother Joneswas rather vague in her story about howshe got from there to organizing miners,although she did mention that she gotinto union organizing with the Knightsof Labor in Chicago after the Chicagofire.Mother Jones apparently anirrepressible spirit who would facefederal troops or who would lead anarmy of women, singing and beating onpots and pans, in a fifteen mile marchover the Pennsylvania mountains,organize five thousand miners, andhave enough time and energy left overto organize the street car workers sothey wouldn’t haul in scabs.She saw the appalling lives,especially of miners, but also of littlechildren who worked in spinning millswhere an adult would not be hiredunless he or she could bring alongseveral children to work at a quarter of the wages on spinning machinery whichwas especially designed to be within thereach of six and eight year old children.And about mining she says: “Thestory of coal is always the same. It is adark story. For a second’s sunlight,men must fight like tigers. For theprivilege of seeing the color of theirchildren’s eyes by the light of the sun,fathers must fight like beasts in thejungle. That life may have something ofdecency, something of beauty - a pic¬ture, a new dress, a bit of cheap lacefluttering in the window - for this, menwho work down in the mines muststruggle and lose, struggle and win.”Prophetically, in the light of recenthistory of the United Mine Workers,Mother Jones’ last chapter is called“Progress in Spite of Leaders” and isan indictment of self-serving, powerhungry men who would lead the unionsto enrich themselves rather than touplift their class. And when discussingher twenty-three years of organizing inWest Virginia, she says “there is neverPeace in West Virginia because there isnever Justice.” If she were to go theretoday, she would see that little haschanged since 1920.Mother Jones’ life and actions weretruly incredible, almost unbelievable,and yet her autobiography is prefacedby an introduction verifying the fan¬ tastic battles that she fought. Foranyone with a shred of fight and ofidealism left, hidden in some darkcorner of the soul and as yet nottrampled, this book is a must.-Shirley Kistler BakerToward A Recognition of AndrogynyCarolyn G. HeilbrunAlfred Knopf, $6.95Androgyny, as defined briefly in Ms.Heilbrun’s introduction, comes from theGreek roots andro (male) and gyn(female), and “defines a conditionunder which the human impulses ex¬pressed by men and women are notrigidly defined.” Heilbrun cautions thereader against confusing the ideal,androgyny, with hermaphroditism, acondition of having physical charac¬teristics of both sexes. She believes thatthe ideal of androgyny has existedthroughout history in myth andliterature, and that the great creativeminds of the world have recognized theneed for humanity to understand andincorporate into our lives the impulsesnow arbitrarily separated into“masculine” and “feminine”characteristics.The book is divided into three sec¬tions. The first section is an overview of the androgynous ideal as presentedthroughout early history. Heilbrundiscusses only Western history andliterature, except for one or two briefcomments on Eastern thought. Herdiscussion casts interesting and in¬triguing light upon the androgynousnature of many of the classics. Rereadthe Antigone, for example, only swit¬ching the roles of Antigone andHaemon The role reversal results in amuch more conventional plot, ac¬cording to the roles thought appropriatefor each sex by much of society today.Her subjects in this section range fromGreek society and literature (Oedipus,Lysistrata), to Judeo-Christiantradition, the Bible, medieval cults ofworship of the Virgin Mary, Spenser,and Shakespeare.The second part of the book exploresthe literary phenomenon of the womanas here: the major character of novelsfrom approximately the 1880’s to WorldWar II. The woman as hero is the personof truly androgynous character; sheembodies the best of the “feminine”impulses such as gentleness, love, andsensitivity but also contains within herthe best of the “masculine” impulses,such as independence, strength, andassertiveness. This woman is notconfined by conventional female roles,and is seen as the main character ofnovels and plays by authors fromRichardson. Henry James, JaneAusten, and George Eliot to GeorgeBernard Shaw (Saint Joan), Ibsen,Colette, and Proust. Heilbrun’sdiscussion is limited mostly to Englishnovels, with some comments onNathaniel Hawthorne’s The ScarletLetter, which she considers the onlyAmerican novel to have presented thewoman as a hero.The last segment of the book is con¬cerned with the Bloomsbury group,among whose members were VirginiaWoolf, Lytton Strachey, MaynardKeynes, Clive Bell. Roger Fry, DuncanGrant, Vanessa Bell and E.M. Forster.The Bloomsbury group was a closecommunity of friends and colleagues increativity, seen in this book as anexample of an androgynous life styleput into practice. That is, the group ispresented as actively valuing the best ofboth the “feminine” and “masculine”impulses, and acting out in their ownlives the androgynous ideal.Heilbrun, a professor of Englishliterature at Columbia University,writes in a clear, concise style andexhibits a refreshing lack of thepreaching, overstatement and self-righteous condemnation which toomany writers succumb to in theireagerness to win the public over to theirviewpoint. The interpretationspresented of various literary classicsare well-documented and serve toawaken the reader to possibilitieswithout exhausting the subject.—Janet Howe MillerJAMESWAYPETERSONMOVING & STORAGE646-4411rail or forUd" 646-1234 free estimatesCompletePre-Planned Moving ServiceLocal • Long Distance • Packing • CratingImport-Export• Containerized StorageFormerly at General Office55th & Ellis 12655 So.
