As an electoral groupthey must file a financialreport on campaignexpenditures, must make alist of all their candidates,and designate a treasurer.Six SG assembly candidates,most of whom are associatedwith WHPK, had petitionswith a majority of commonsignatures.Outgoing SG presidentStuart Sweet threatened toinitiate action in the SFA (Student FacultyAdministration) courtearlier in the week, callingfor the classification of thealleged WHPK candidates asa fully constituted party onthe election ballot.In response to the suitthreat. Noer and SFA courtchief justice Katie O’Brien,decided that the six “othercollege” SG candidates willappear as members of asingle electoral group, theStrange BedfellowsThe members of TSB areLarry Goldbaum, JaneGinsberg.

The Daily News teamwas challenged by See YourFood two years ago afterRoyko had derided “effeteHyde Park softball” in one ofhis columns. The visitingDaily News players wentaway with a hard-fought 10-9decision. “That ended thatfucking challenge,” Roykotold the Maroon. Bob Yovovitch and his SeeYour Food teammatesrecently managed to reachthe News players at the BillyGoat Tavern, and theirdemand for a rematch washonored.Advised that thechallengers are taking thematch rather seriously,Royko denied any greatconcern. “I’m bringing myreal team this time; in thefirst game, all my playerswere hung over, so I had tobring a bunch of spastics andguys who never playedbefore.”Royko added that his teamis training hard for thecontest. “I told the guys toavoid all carnal contact withtheir wives for three daysbefore the game. Otherbimbos are OK, bui. not theirwives.”Access cards replacecameras at Regenstein Royko refused to be pinneddown on any predictions. “Ifit’s the same bunch ofweirdos we played last time,I think we’ll probably win.Still, you never know whichway the wind will blow. Thereal problem playing inHyde Park is the spectators.You get distracted, trying tofigure out what they are,watching them fall out oftrees and everything...”Aside from Royko’scelebrity appeal, the gamepromises to be a rareexhibition of quality softball.Like da Mare, the WaterTower, and Royko himself,16-inch slow-pitch softball isa unique Chicago institution.The game is considerablydifferent from baseball oreven the 12-inch softball thatis played everywhere in thecountry but Chicaguh.Needless to say, spectatorsare welcome, both at thegame and at the traditionalpost-game “sherry hour.” “- * Several candidatesappearing on the ballot,although not TSB partymembers, are also on themembership list.Other petitions also hadcommon signatures butbelonged to candidatesrunning from groups whichalready had declaredthemselves as parties. Thetwo other declared partieswith candidates running forSG are the New AmericanMovement and theSpartacus Youth League.Jane Ginsberg, programming director ot WHPK.maintains that there is noreal party and that it is not aresult of a conspiratorialaction that the petitions havenearly the same signaturesGinsberg asserts that theallegations “don’t make anysense,” and that it is“natural for students activein one organization to getinvolved in SG,” particularlyconsidering the size of theWHPK membership, whichnumbers 85.As a countercharge.Ginsbe’-g claims that Sweetinitia ed the original suitafter she refused to exerciseher influence in support ofhis candidates.Sweet partially denies theallegation. “My major pointhas been to see that thisyear’s elections are fair, andthat all have a fairopportunity to run.”In addition.

Theseprecautions are part of aneffort to prevent the rash offires which plagued thelibrary last month.During their two weektenure on campus, thecameras sparkedcontroversy among regularusers of the library. Dean ofstudents Charles O’Connellhas referred to them as “abust.” Their departurebrings to an end theprocedure of photographingeveryone who entered andexited the library.The new procedurerequires the patron to writehis name on an access card,indicate his status, andpresent the card withvalidated Universityidentification to the controldesk personnel. A time-stamp records the exact time of entry on the card,which the patron mustsurrender at departure.The library is stillsearching for an effectivesecurity system, accordingto O’Connell. The universityhas not accepted theassessment of professionalsecurity personnel that 500agents are required to keepthe library “secure” fromthe possibility of arson.Dean O’Connell told theFaculty-Student AdvisoryCommittee on Campus Stu¬dent Life that the camerasonly generated moderateprotest. He also noted that itwould take some time todevelop the photographs ofpatrons after a fire. He wasoriginally told that resultscould be made available intwo hours.The search for a moreeffective system iscontinuing, but O’Connelldoui ts that a fool proofsyste n can be found. Painted Pub opens tonightThe Pub reopened lastevening after a ten dayshutdown caused by a flashfire. A more formalreopening is planned fortoday and tomorrow.Charles O’Connell, dean ofstudents, personallyintervened in the tavern’sreopening. He told membersof the Faculty-StudentAdvisory Committee onCampus Student Life onThursday that there wouldbe no fire hats or an“arsonist special” duringthe weekend festivities. Thedean found those proposals“tasteless” and said therewas “no levity in the fire.”There had been plans toreopen the Pub earlier thisweek, but they werescratched when it wasdiscovered painters hadcovered three-fourths of theupper half of the walls withthe wrong shade of maroon paint. The original contractdeadline of Thursday,though, was met.Juanita Rosenberg, whooperates the Pub and theFrog and the Peach with herhusband Gilbert, had only high praise for thecooperation of the paintingcontractors and the plantdepartment.Today’s reopening willbegin at 4 p.m., the regularopening hour. Though plans were incomplete at presstime there will definitely belive music both tonight andSaturday.

April 25, 1975 - The Chicogo Maroon 3FSACCSL deals with press and dogsYesterday, at a meeting ofthe Faculty-StudentAdvisory Committee onCampus Student Life(FSACCSL) a disputedeveloped over the groundrules for invited press andthe role of studentcommittee members. Afourth year College student,Kelly Kleiman, criticizedCharles O’Connell,University dean of students,for making comments ordiscussing topics but adding“that’s not for the Maroon.”In other matters, nostudents have applied forseats on FSACCSL for thegraduate humanities andbiological sciences/ medicalschool seats. The deadlinefor submitting nominatingpetitions is today.O’Connell, who sits aschairman of the advisorycommittee’s meetingsapologized to Kleiman andthe Maroon for keeping adiscussion of C-Shopalternatives “off therecord.’’ That incidentoccurred several weeks ago,before the new format at theMandel Hall eating spot hadbeen adopted The deannoted that he had onlywished to keep certaincomments out of the pressRegarding other subjectsthat have been put “off the record’’ in the past,O’Connell told committeemembers that he desiredfrank discussion with themand felt he would besomewhat inhibited andmore formal if all hisremarks were subject toprint. He also noted thatrepresentatives from bothcampus papers and studentgovernment were invitedguests at the sessions.After some discussion,Maroon editor Tim Rudy toldthe committee he usuallyrespected the ground rulessince he was an invitedguest, but that his finaldetermination was alwaysbased on editorial judgment.The editor also noted he hadviolated the ground rules onone or two occasions.Kleiman brought up thesubject after O’Connell andthe law schoolrepresentative HaroldKaplan, had argued forseveral minutes aboutRegenstein library securityprocedures. Kleiman told theMaroon afterwards that sheis “not even really mad atO’Connell, but at the finesseof the administration ..let usadvise and let us talk.”“I have been threateningto kick up shit for the lastthree meetings,” Kleimanlater said, “and I’m going towe CHARTERSmake arrangements for all types of charteiU-travel, inc.Call 667-3900KIMBARKLIQUORSWINE MERCHANTSOF THE FINESTIMPORTED ANDDOMESTIC WINESFeaturing our direct imports,bringing better value to youlTHE ONLY TRUE WINE SHOP IN HYDE PARK53RD KIMBARK LIQUORS, INC.12141. 53rd St.53-Kimbark Plaza HY-3-3355With This Ad OnlyUsed Desks *15Used Chairs *5&uPNew Chairs *25"cash and carry"t brand £ UIPMENT&UPPLYCO8600 Commercial Ave.Open Mon.-Sat. 8:30-5:00RE 4-2111 continue to kick up shit.” Shealso criticized the lack ofpreparation andorganization of studentcommittee members and thecontrol of the agenda andchairmanship by the dean.“If we went in there withsome idea of FSACCSL andwhat we wanted to do,”Kleiman thinks thecommittee would do a betterjob.Kleiman admitted that“FSACCSL is probably notgoing to change.

They passCairo, Illinois, in a fog and, losing theirchance to enter the free states, they have togo farther south into slave territory."So begins the Organic Theater's secondpart of The Adventures of HuckleberryFinn. While the plot of Part I can be summarized in a 50 word program note, thetenor of this, the Organic's most ambitiousproject since WARP, can't be felt in a fewsentences. What problems there were withPart I were stylistic, not structural, andwith another attempt at the same project, itwas widely felt they could be overcome.Huck Finn Part II is by no means a mereextension of a prior work, however. Asdirector Stuart Gordon pointed out in anearlier interview, Mark Twain had set asideHuck Finn for seven years between chaptersCWttOL MUSIC - eighteen and nineteen (the breaking pointfor the Organic production). During thathiatus Twain's already caustic views on"civilization" grew more cynical, his opposition to slavery became more fervent,and his sense of the absurd human conditionmore broad.Coincident with the growth of Twain as awriter came a change in the style of thebook The Organic, whose adaptation istaken directly from the original text, couldnot help but reflect this enormous shift bythe author in their production. To reversethe old Dragnet line: the situation hadchanged, only the names remained the sameto protect the book.Part 11, as the program note explains, stillfollows Jim and Huck down the Mississippi.But rather than the extended use of Huck asnarrator in Part I, Part II introducesstronger characters and a greaterdevelopment of these characters throughaction instead of Huck's own words.For Gordon and the Organic Theater, thisSuperb soprano comesBy Toby Lou HofslundSong recital is practically extinct inChicago, but next week Elly Amelingarrives with accompanist Joerg Demus fornot one, but three, recitals at the Universityof Chicago, thanks to the Arts on the Midway.Why has this art form fatlen on such hardtimes? The reason is obscure. People stillpay big fees for symphony, opera, and pianorecitals, but local impressarios are afraid topresent singers unless they are big namestars like Sutherland, Sills, and FisherDieskau.The tragedy is that there are many firstrate singers who deserve to be heard; highamong them is Miss Ameling. Until now her reputation, at least in this town, has beenbased totally on recordings, of which thereseems to be no end. She is on all the majorlabels, and her list of recordings is as impressive as it is endless. Last year sherecorded the complete melodies of GabrielFaure with baritone Berard Souzay andpianist Dalton Baldwin—works she performed at Aix-en Provence durinq thesummer Most recently, she has completedthe recording of Schumann's "Frauenliebeund Leben" for Phillips If you are one of thelucky ticket holders for Monday, May 5, youwill enjoy the immediacy of her bright,clear soprano singing the Schumann It'sbeautiful.Miss Ameling's personal preference is forSoprano Elly Ameling is scheduled for three rare Chicago area performances, and will behaving discussion sessions with students during her six day campus stay is a blessing in disguise.The major flaws in Park I lay in BrianHickey's inability to cope with the enormityof the role of Huck as foisted upon him by theadaptation of the production from the novel.Part II shows Hickey has arown with hisrole. In the month that Huck Finn Part Iplayed he lost the uncertainty that plaguedhim (and the audience) last opening night.This greater ease with his character and aless awesome responsibility to the entireproduction made Hickey's performance inPart II a more graceful and provoking oneAnd it also lead to a greater contrast between his moments of solitude and pathosand his part in the chicanery that makesHuck Finn a classic in American hunorThe change in the book's style also freesup the Organic to do what it excels at —ensemble. Where Part I was a protractedmonologue, Part II lets the Organic's stableof extraordinary character actors mixfreely. And it also allows Gordon to concentrate on spectacle and moments.

And with the addition ofnumerous "crowd" scenes in the text butonly one actor to the stage (for a total ofeight), Gordon's flair for special effects getsits most strenuous exercise since the interdimensional travel of WARP.All together Part II is a much morepolished show than its predecessor Themain reason for this is the magnificentperformances by William Norris and JosephMantegna as Twain's charlatans.

Underneath allthat professionalism and cynicism beats aheart of pure gold. He does not enjoy panning a play nor ridiculing a particularly badperformance; quite the contrary. Thegreatest thrill for a critic is to attend a showso electrifying and so penetrating that thejob of reviewing afterwards becomes a godsend. Through his pervasive prose he is ableto lend to hundreds of readers the enthusiasm and excitement of theatre at itsbest.I was dismayed by the UniversityTheatre's Three Episodes appearing lastweekend at the Court Theatre. A dramaticevening with plays by Chekhov and PeterShaffer heading the bill, and the direction ofU.T.'s own Nick Rudall, turned out to be acoarsely drawn caricature of "theatre at itsbest." This poor imitation of stage actingpierced no one too deeply nor set any sparksflying.★★★★★★★★★★Smoking is Bad For You, a one manmonologue by Anton Chekhov, opened theprogram. The title suggests that the play isa dry, scientific lecture on the cursed effectot tobacco. Indeed it is not. Rather it is ahumorous display of the antics and nervoustwitches of a broken down old man forced tolecture on a habit which he himself actuallypractices Ivan Ivanovich Nyukhin is a henpecked husband reduced to "imbecile,""snake," and "hillhound" — to use hiswife's own words. He is a pathetic clown andfool, a man who once had dreams but nowwould be content to live the stand still life ofa .vee or a lamppost. Ivan is in search of abit of quiet peace; his life is a shambles andhe is a lonely defeatest who lectures atcharity functions. Mark Kenmore's attemptat characterizing this pitiful old professorcan be given "E" for effort. His Mr. Chips like protrayal is a mass of histrionicgingerbread. He scratches behind his neck,pulls on his buttons, looks at his watch, pullsup his pants, blinks his eyes incessantly,scuffs his feet, rubs his fingers together,swallows his words — all like Johnny Carsonduring the opening monologue of the TonightShow. Director Lichtenstein should bespanked, however, for permitting him tooverdo this to the extent of boredom.Whatever there might be of reasonabletorment in this sorrowful old man is buriedbeneath this irritating clumsy display.I am sorry for everyone concerned withthe noisy, nonrevel of Peter Shaffer'sPrivate Ear. The script itself is weak andsags at the middle, making for a long anddrawn out performance. The charactersbeing glibly enacted onstage are those thatcomedy writers wouldn't have hesitated toinvent back in the nineteen thirties —Tchaik, the inexperienced longhair; Ted,the wolfish man about town; Doreen, thepretty yet shallow date — and thesestereotypes are matched in their familiarityand vulgarity by the plot, which calls for theyoung, timid music lover to seduce thedense yet nicely endowed young girl in thestyle of the wolfish best friend.The movement and grouping of the actors,the pacing and delivery of the speeches,were simply beneath contempt. The scenerywas just a lot of furniture and plywood,rather like the actors, and the costumeswere mostly what you see nowadays on anystreet, except for Ted's silken ascot, whichseemed the legacy from Gucci. The acting,other than Tom Allen's Ted, was at bestelementary, at worst, ludicrous.As Tchaik, Aaron Filler, an experiencedactor, seemed to be thrashing about in avacuum. Among better fellow actors andwith a good director, this might have been areal performance; as it was, it came acrossa little too brittle and shallow My chiefobjection to the performance was his faulty British accent. If director Baltrukenas hadsituated the play in New York City ratherthan London, and altered slightly certainBritish references, the acting would havebeen more natural and perhaps the actorscould have pulled off the airiness of Shatfer's humor. Instead, the performance wasmore a sex romp than a piece of BritishThe Same Room, by Michael Braude, founda fairly new way to treat a broken manscarred by an unhappy marriage and theNazi concentration camp. The treatmentwhich was theatrical, not medical, andconsisted of physically landscaping histroubled mind and fleshing his uglymemories — was unsuccessful, and it wasbasically unwise. But on such a flabbyplaybill, at least playwright Braude attempted something provocative and attimes achieved something striking, and PatBillingsley was frequently touching in alackluster role.Against Varney Knapp's fine authentic setthe self probing yielded moments both ofsharp fantasy and of sharp perception. Butan ultra-subjective method, which by now isa commonplace of fiction, has no properplace in drama It is not just that dramaworks from the outside in, rather than viceversa, but that such mental voyaging, in thetheatre, is seldom sly, swift, and aberrantenough to seem real, nor cumulative enoughto be dramatic.Choked with method and starved forsubstance, the play offered only apredicament, not a situation, while thesituation that led to the predicament rarelyindividualized the hero or galvanized thestory His were all too familiar aggressionsand hurts and guilts; and he too was only apredicament, not really a person.ThecauJournollm CMICMO It MOO* 5 •Mill U*A/i*f w ctmctui MO rut U'\TO ALL WHO MAY BE INTERESTED eUitgrGage AndrewsThe Student Co-op has purchased a large overstock ofunused imported foreign-language boob, both literatureand linguistics.A special sale on these Hems will begin on Tuesday, April29.

Perhaps it is an obsession withgrades (the most plausible reason) orperhaps it might even just be fun, But, torwhatever reason, the GCJ's policy ofreviewing record albums by giving themletter "grades" is not only highly arbitrary,but patently pathetic and serves no goodpurpose.The obsession that many students at theUniversity have with grades should not bemade to permeate our outside lives andinterests. For those of us who take musicseriously, these "grades" cannot reallyhave much meaning. One is usuallyinterested in primarily in the contents of thealbum, then possibly in the content of thereview; but never really interested in thesubjective "grading" of an album byan obsessed student We have enough of thatelsewhere in this University to satisfyalmost everyone's desires; no more isneeded (except possibly to satisfy thevoracious appetite of the reviewer).Perhaps it might be mentioned that manypeople do not really care about this matterone way or the other, just letting it slide by;a minor affair. Perhaps it is one of manysuch minor flaws thaf are allowed to passinto print. But it is these many small, minorflaws that are irritating and quite irksome.They make one wince (while reading) anotherwise well produced weekly magazineFor these considerations, and numerousothers, I, and possibly many others wouldlike to see an immediate cessation to thishighly arbitrary policy. If the reviewers donot feel this is fair, perhaps their reviewingshould be discontinued and/ or we shouldfind a reviewer who is more interested inreviewing music and not giving out grades.Sincerely,Adam StolerLetter grades are used to help specify therelative quality of the record, and as suchare not a "minor flaw." They permit us toreview more records than would otherwisebe the case, and help to compensate for thecomparative degrees of quality.

However, we have recently seenand heard an exception so striking as toprove the exception to the rule. Consider thetwo recent concerts, three nights apart, bythe Chicago Symphony Orchestra and theBoston Symphony Orchestra.On the occasion of Sir Georg Solti's return,the CSO offered a uniquely interesting andstimulating program. It held a Haydnsymphony ("The Clock"), so clean, clearand crisp that it gained momentum andcontinued to its conclusion (you shouldexcuse the expression) just like clockwork;real Haydn, true to style and mood, and anexample of Solti's adaptability and theorchestra's responsiveness.Commanding special attention was thefirst Chicago Symphony Orchestraperformance of George Rochberg's"Concerto for Violin and Orchestra," asubstantial work premiered barely a weekearlier by the CSO solosist, Isaac Stern, inPittsburgh.Rochberg's music is an intriguing collageof the literature for the violin. At times itsounds like Bartok, at times likeSchoenberg, and at times it has all thefragrance, color, and sound of a Chagalllandscape, sometimes delicate andsometimes harsh and ugly. Once in a while itjolts you with syncopations and off beatrhythms sufficient to give you vitality andfreshness. Stern's performance became acontemplative brooding voice that -:ouldscream and sometimes moan withoutoffending more traditional ears. Interestwas sustained by many devices, one ofwhich was chromaticism.There wasn't any French music on Solti'sprogram. But there was something new andexciting. Yet, there was French music forthe listener attending the Boston SymphonyOrchestra benefit for the Ravinia Festival. The Boston Symphony is not presently inthe same league as the CSO when it comesto brass sonority and woodwind ensemble.However, the strings are still very fine, andit was the sheen of the strings coupled withSeiji Ozawa's sweeping approach whichmade the "Daphnis and Chloe" pleasant,and sometimes very effective. The AnnArbor Festival Chorus added measurably tothe work and provided sound and strengthfor Ravel's marvelous climaxes. DoriotAnthony Dwyer's warm fluttery flute soundwas ideally suited to the piece.It was a fine performance. I get awfullytired of everybody putting down every otherorchestra but the CSO. The CSO is a greatorchestra, especially for Mahler andBruckner. But other orchestras, like theBoston Symphony, sound very well in Raveland "Daphnis and Chloe."There may have been difference ofopinion as to the Ravel. But there was aunanimous agreement as to the slipshodperformance of Mozart's "Piano ConcertNo. 2l in C, K 467," which obviously pianistJames Levine had not rehearsed with theorchestra. He played it correctly but void ofall nuance. It was alia bunch of notes.Levine and Ozawa should have stayedover to hear what Mozart should sound likewhen Gina Bachauer played the "Concertoin G Major, K. 453" last week. It was allshape and color, filled with beautiful soundsand the right textures.Not only was the Mozart memorable, butthe Bruckner "Fifth Symphony" showedthat the CSO is a great orchestra when itcomes to German ana romantic music.With all the conductors—Giulini, Abado,Barenboim, Levine—coming into town torecord Bruckner and Mahler with the CSO,it would be a pity if Solti and the ChicagoSymphony would permit their April 18thperformance to be lost. It was toomemorable a collaboration to gounrecorded.SG ELECTIONSANDCONSTITUTIONALAMENDMENTSMonday, April 28-Wednesday, April 30POLLING PLACESRegenstein 12-4 and 6-9 P.M.Reynolds Club 11-2Cobb 9-3VOTERSUNDERGRADUATES: "Other College” and Fraternities(Dorm Residents will have separate elections)GRADUATES: Graduate Divisions(Professional Schools will have separate elections)VOTE! Accessible AmateursBy Minna DavidsonOne of the nice things about modern danceis that it is much more accessible to theaverage human body than ballet; and it isversatile enough so that people can manageto look good doing it even if they do notspend their entire lives building up a solidtechnique.This was illustrated in the concert givenby the U. of C. dance group Monday nightDespite the fact that the choreography hadto accommodate for dancers with variedlevels of technical ability, most of the piecesperformed were interesting andmeaningful. A few of them seemed a bitlong, but that was a minor problem.Because the choreography was tailored tothe needs of the performers, the dancing, on the whole, looked good It would have lookedeven better without stray manifestations ofnervousness — particularly in peoples'faces — but that, too, was a minor problemAlthough the performance took place in aninformal atmosphere, it was presented witha professional attitude and appeared to bebetter organized than the group's Mondaynight performance during last quarter. Itwas a little long to watch without an intermission. All in all, however, 1t was aworthy effort on the part of a group forwhom dance is an avocation and not a wayof lifeThis concert was the second in a six weekseries of Monday night dance events at theU. of C.

April 25. 1975 - The Chicago Maroon 7 TheGreyCityJournalfheGreyCityJournal IFILM!Many concert close-ups in 'Jams'By Daniel M. RosenthalSeeing a film about Janis Joplin,especially if one has been interested in herfor the past eight or nine years, could not failto be a positive experience no matter whatits quality. One cannot, at the same time,help feeling a trifle disappointed when theresult is as limited in scope as Janis.The film, while it certainly manages toconvey a strong sense of Joplin's style andmusical direction, for the most part fails toprovide any real insight into the personalitybehind the stage presence. There is, in fact,only one scene in the entire film where herperformer's mask slips and the audience isafforded a glimpse, albeit momentary, ofthe real woman. Asked about the feelings ofher high school classmates toward her,Joplin finds herself at a loss for a.snappyanswer and, it would seen, struck by therealization that even ten years is not longenough to erase the pain of being regardedas something of a freak.Hardly ten percent of the footage isdevoted to offstage scenes; after watching97 minutes of Joplin singing every one of herbest and "most important" songs, one is leftwith a strong sense of having made little orno progress toward a more real understanding of the personal and professionalpressures that made her what she was and,ultimately, destroyed her. And even most ofthe offstage sequences are, in the end,irrelevant to the film. Simpering interviewers asking riduculous questions towhich she can only respond flippantly don'tprovide any real insight for the audience.After all, one can hardly be expected to bareone's soul on the Dick Cavett Show or a noisyLondon street corner. Negative impressionsare all that can be gotten from this sort ofpointless footage.Despite the film's marked failure as an"in depth documentary," it has manymemorable moments. Without question thefootage of her performances is among thebest ever released. If only for thesesequences, Janis is certainly a film that is well worth seeing. Capturing the power of aperformer of her calibre as simply as thisfootage does is an accomplishment worthyof great praise. Hearing her voice, watchingher move, feeling the tension and tremendous emotional impact of her performanceon film brings back her live concerts withextraordinary vividness.Great sections of her career have beenoverlooked by the producers, possiblybecause the film was unavailable. Almostall of her work with Big Brother and TheHolding Company was skipped over. RealJoplin afficionados will, therefore, besomewhat disappointed with much of thefilm, or, more accurately, with the largepiece that isn't there. Yet some of the mostdynamic rock film I have ever seen is ineluded. Maybe it would have been too muchif Lou Adler had released the rest of theMonterey Pop Festival film. Like the featured personalities in otherdocumentaries, Janis Joplin emerges fromthis film slightly larger than life. One canonly be thankful that the producers havegracefully managed to avoid over¬capitalizing on Joplin's status as somethingof a cult figure (which is a job better left tothe distributors). Vulgarity of that sort isnot one of this film's flaws. Even the finalsequence of still photographs is reasonablytastefully presented. Most of thephotographs used in the sequence are therefor a clearly discernable and artisticallysound reason. All of the tricks that one hascome to expect from a film of this type havenot been employed with the result that thefilm is considerably stronger than it mightotherwise have been.Making a film of this type without beingtrite is probably the most difficult task thatthe producers had to deal with. As I look back on it, I cannot help but wonder if anyattempt on their part to introduce theaudience to the more pertinent personaldetails of her life would have improved thefilm or made it, in the end, less of a positiveexperience. Certainly the film holdstogether quite well without forcing an ar¬tificial directedness on what is not, after all,a study in personality or an attempt to dealwith the story of her life.As a rock film, as a musical and emotionalexperience, Janis succeeds remarkablywell. Some things have been left out, butperhaps if they had been included the resultwould not have been nearly so simple ornearly so enjoyable. Satisfying theaudience's desire for more in depth per¬sonal detail might only have introduced theelements of a soap opera into what is,finally, a very enjoyable, if somewhatlimited, experience.DdnceRedlich’s BrillianceBy Minna DavidsonAn evening of short pieces was presentedby the Don Redlich Dance company at theColumbia College Dance Center lastSaturday. In general, the choreography wasinteresting and well controlled. As isinevitable, however, some of the pieceswere more successful than others.Highlights on the program were Redlich'ssolos, Passin' Through and Earthling.Passin' Through drew the most enthusiasticaudience response. It was what I would callan "Americana" piece, done to a banjoaccompaniment of traditional Americanfolk songs, with a costume which looked likesomething out of the Music Man. Thechoreography was a combination of softshoe, cakewalk and square dance with a fewmovements from modern dance thrown in What distinguished the piece wasRedlich's superb performance. He dancedwith a sensitivity and an appearance of totalcomfort rare even among excellent professional dancers. Everything he did wascontrolled and yet done to the fullestpossible extent He appeared to fit the wholedance perfectly, and because of this, theeffect was dazzlinq.Earthling seemed near to a moderndance version of Afternoon of a Faun. It wasdone to music by Debussy, and in it Redlichrolled and cavorted, using clever, animallike movements. Though the dance was verydifferent from Passin' Through, Redlichalso gave it an outstanding performance.Both dances enabled him not only to ex¬press his artistic sensitivity, but also toexhibit a remarkable and almost singulartechnique. His dancing had a generally fluidquality; he frequently moved so that heappeared to have no bones in his body. Atthe same time, however, he managed to paygreat attention to detail and to execute verysubtle movements with precision. Thisability to keep up the effect of fluidity whileretaining small abrupt movements withinthe overall flow was what made his dancingunique.Redlich has passed this quality to thedancers in his company (though no one elseseems to have it quite as much as he does)and it is stunning in group pieces. Par¬ticularly effective was a piece called"Jibe." In it, the dancers appeared on afairly dark stage, wearing strips of amaterial (clear plastic?) which hung fromtheir arms and bodies and glowed as theypassed in and out of light. The backdrop forthe dance was at first plain and then a filmof pulsing shapes. The dancers undulated,glittered and made sharp edgedmovements. The effect which they createdwith it all was unusual. They almost looked as if they were underwater, and the dancewas fascinating to watch.Two pieces on the program were notentirely successful, however. Cahoots,which might have been subtitled SaturdayNight at the Singles Bar, was a slapstickpiece in which boy stomped on stage, girlstomped on stage, boy met girl, and theystomped around together. It containedseveral funny movements, but the transitions between them were weak. It lookedas if Redlich had thought of a few isolatedfunny sequences and then thrown themtogether with a few more sequences between in order to present them as a dance.The piece, therefore, lacked the continuityof a cohesive whole.Estrange was the other unsatisfactorydance on the program. It was done inshadowy silence; the dancers raced aroundthe stage, passing by one another withoutmeeting until the very end when theytouched and collapsed. The lighting wasdisturbing because it obscured the dancers'faces and the meaning of whaf could be seenwas therefore lost From the sound of thedancers' panting and from what was visible,one could infer that whatever they weredoing was very intense. The lightinghowever, reduced their efforts to exercisesin futility, if not absurdity. Perhaps this waspart of Redlich's "point" in this dance — theaudience was estranged from the dancersby the lighting as the dancers wereestranged from each other by thechoreography. Even if this had been thecase, I would have liked to have seenwhatever it was the dancers were workingso hard to produce.On the whole, the evening was verysuccessful. Redlich's choreography wasinnovative and skillful. His own dancing wasbrilliant and his company's performancewas of high quality.Bob Ashenhurstat tha pianoLive BandDancingMaditarranaan FoodWinaTicket*$8.50par parsonavailable:Book CantarBook NookDai PradoU.C.

In other Chicago performances,he appeared in countless walk ons —breathing life into what would otherwisehave been meaningless five line characters.But as the rascally Dauphin who does"mostly anything — long as it ain't work,"Mantegna finally gets to stretch himself onstage.Bruce Taylor delivered a performance onpar with his Part I Jim. Refusing to UncleTom Twain's runaway, Taylor portrays Jimas a compassionate and sensitive (if a trifleunenlightened) man. However, while thecharacterization itself doesn't falter, Taylorexperiences a severe problem with lack ofarticulation. Unfortunately, this ratherbasic flaw costs him Jim's most touchingscene — his recounting the discovery of hisdaughter's deafness. Let's hope that this canbe attributed to opening night jittersbecause Taylor's Jim is too good to be lost toan improperly opened mouth.The major obstacle to the Organic's HuckFinn being a classic theater experience liesnot in the production, but in the book itself.From the beginning Huck Finn is not somuch an adventure story as it is the detailsof a young man's battle to fight off con¬striction from without and within. Huck runshead on into the various legal, social, andreligious thongs that bound America in thelate 1800's (and which still do). Near thebook's close, faced with the final dilemma tohelp free Jim and defy every code of honorand civility in the South, Huck's decision to"go to Hell" and free his friend is the realend of the novel. What transpires after thispoint is merely Twain tying up loose endsand extraditing himself from the arduoustask of explaining how a nigger travellingsouth can be freed. Huck has found hisfreedom and now Twain must go on to bigger things.Exhuming Tom Sawyer for a fling at thecapriciousness of his earlier book is theauthor's worst mistake. He has lost interestin the old Hannibal hijinx. How can he expect to keep his readers'?As a result, through no fault of their own,the Organic's Huck Finn falls flat in itsconclusion. Keith Szarabajka's per¬formance as Tom comes nowhere neareither the Tom or the Buck Grangerford inPart I. And how could it? He has nothing towork with. His appearances in numerous bitparts in the rest of Part II are credible butnot enough to judge.The same problem is true for JackWallace who hypnotised the audience asPap in Part I. As a fumbling Uncle Silas,Wallace is sorely out of character and out ofmaterial. His approach is vaudevillian atbest. Unfortunately, a grimace orastonished gape to the audience doesn'tsubstitute for the substance he is denied byTwain.As in Part I, the Organic's women,Roberta Custer and Carolyn Gordon, get outabout three paragraphs worth of lines and afew sentences of sentiment. Both haveproved themselves before (Gordon moreauspiciously fhan Custer), but then HuckFinn just isn't a play for women.To talk about Stuart Gordon and theOrganic Theater "detailing the Americanexperience" in Huck Finn, as some have,doesn't make sense. Leave the Americanexperience up to Bicentennial Moments.The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is anintensel/ personal story and the Organichas produced an intensely personal work.At times it strains or takes an easy route butso does the book and so do real people. PartsI & II strike a fine balance between theoutrageous, the ambitious, and the intimate.They're the kind of work the Organic isknown for, and the kind of theatre this citydoesn't have nearly enough of.Roberta Custer as Aunt Sally in the Organic Theater's production of Huck Finn Photo byDaniel Rest.Give usyour old, tiredtypewriter (in working condition)and we’ll give you$60.00Smith-Corona'Coronamatic'2200CartridgePortable SMITH-CORONA®TRADE-IN, TRADE-UP SALE!Smith Corona Coronamatic 2200 Mfg.

That album,Hoodoo Man Blues, appeared at a time whenJunior was still trying to gain acceptancewith white audiences, and will probablyserve future generations as the bestindication of what serious, honest 1960'sChicago blues sounded like, not to mentionits value as the mosl important electricblues album recorded during this period.What made the release of Hoodoo ManBlues so significant is the fact that the musicwas representative of what was developingin Chicago at the time of the album's initialpressing. Pete Welding recorded a brilliantalbum of Chicago blues by Floyd Jones andEddie Taylor as part of his Masters OfModern Blues series at about the same timethat Hoodoo Man was waxed, but both Floydand Eddie had long before establishedthemselves as major Chicago blues artists,and the record that they cut for Welding,while an artistic triumph in its own right,was little more than a remake of somethingthat had already been accomplished tenyears earlier. The music on Hoodoo Manwas totally original, it was Jr. Wells at hismost intense, and it wasn't (stylisticallyspeaking) a remake of anything.Jr. Wells has come a long way sinceHoodoo Man. Now extremely popular withwhite audiences and one of the big namesamong blues artists, he is still his own man.His deep, emotional singing, chock full ofmoans, shouts, and unaffected laughter,combined with his powerful, instantlyrecognizable harp blowing, sounds just asstrong as it did when he cut the original"Hoodoo Man Blues" (the single) back inthe early fifties. All of which is evident onhis new Delmark album, Junior Wells OnTap. Comparison with his first album is anirresistible temptation, if for no otherreason th^.n that both were released on thesame label and that both have the sameproducer, Bob Koester.The major differences are visible in theslickness which encapsulates almost everyaspect of his new recording By Paula MaterreStill enmeshed in an overabundance ofnotoriety because of his speech acceptingthe Oscar for the Best Documentary Film atthe Academy Award Ceremonies, ProducerBert Schneider was in town recently topromote his masterful film, Hearts andMinds, which is a moving indictment ofAmerican involvement in Vietnam.(When accepting his award on the eve ofwhat Schneider referred to as the"liberation of Vietnam," he read a telegramfrom the chief of the Viet Cong delegation tothe Paris peace talks. Later in the show,Frank Sinatra disclaimed the speech "onbehalf of fhe Academy.'')I considered myself extremely fortunateto have made it to his suite at the Continental Plaza, having shortly before survived a clumsy fall which left my cassetteplayer severely damaged, my writing handbroken and bleeding, and my mental staterather muddled. Schneider's easy goingmanner, however, put me enough at ease to(understandable, considering Junior'spresent status in the music business andwhat his reputation was nine years ago),and in the makeup of the band. Only threeother musicians were featured on HoodooMan, but all three (Buddy Guy, Jack Myers,and Billy Warren) played so well that theircollective performance was the equal ofJunior's. Not so with Junior Wells On Tap.Here the band, composed partially of somefairly well known figures on thecontemporary Chicago blues scene (SamLawhorn, Big Moose Walker), partially ofsome not so well known figures on thecontemporary Chicago blues scene(Roosevelt "Snake" Shaw, Charles Miles),and partially of sidemen who seem to makea career out of playing behind Jr. Wells(AC. Reed, Phillip Guy, HermanApplewhite), provides adequate backup,playing solidly, but leaving Junior to carrythe whole show by himself. This approach concentrate on the provocative questionswhich were being asked him by twonewspapermen: "What do you think of BobHope? Did anybody say anything to youbackstage after your speech? What did theysay? What does P.R.G. stand for? WasCandice Bergen with you in China? Do youremember so-and-so from such and suchprep school?"Schneider answered their questionssuccinctly while managing to direct theconversation toward more substantiveterritory: "Watergate was a direct result ofthe Pentagon Papers...It was Nixon's attempt to get Ellsberg that brought Nixondown...China is a positive force because it isa true socialist state...their enormouscollective incentive is very powerful...It(Hearts and Minds) is one sided...the truthis sometimes one sided."Schneider is quick to admit the short¬comings ot China and communism, the mostobvious being their stagnation in the area ofthe arts, and he adamantly rejects theirsystem of governmenf for himself and forworks out fairly well. Lawhorn's guitarsounds pretty good, but the record is mainly"Junior's Thing," which happens to be thetitle of one of the tracks on the album. Whichis to say that Junior's presence is so stronglyfelt on every number that the whole recordends up sounding terrific.Most of the songs on the album arestandards that have been recorded by justabout everybody. They all sound goodadapted to Junior's style, and I suspect thatit was Junior himself who chose thematerial. "Key To The Highway","Someday Baby," "You Gotta Love HerWith A Feeling," "The Train I Ride," and"So Long" all sound excellent, even thoughJunior has recorded some of them in thepast. "Watch Me Move" and "Junior'sThing" refect Junior's awareness ofpopular black music and hisacknowledgement of the influence it has hadon his style. "What My Mama Told Me" this country.He sat clutching a copy of the PentagonPapers as he told of the commitment toanti Vietnam War activities which prompt¬ed him to devote himself to the making ofHearts and Minds, at a cost of two years and$1.2 million.As I was preparing to leave and Schneiderwas occupied on the telephone, a rathernervous looking public relations man fromWarner Brothers emerged from an ad¬joining room and remarked to me thatSchneider wasn't really that far to the left,and that he really was an "allright guy." Iwondered why so many people have deemedit necessary to censor Schneider when hisfilm so obviously stands as an unalterableaffirmation of his politics.It is sad that Bert Schneider will spend somuch valuable time defending his con¬troversial statement when there are somany countries which have not beenliberated and so many films which have notbeen made.stands out as the true highlight of thesession. Junior's performance here isnothing short of fantastic, so good that youought to get your hands on the record if onlyto be able to listen to this one track. This isnot the best Jr. Wells record ever made, noris it the worst. It is however, what Jr. Wellsis up to musically these days, and thatmakes it important enough for you to go outand get it (if you haven't already)By Harold BrennerZulema (RCA) Zulema has a distinctivesound. Her voice is on the order of a NancyWilson. The selections on the album areconservative R&B but sung and arrangedwell. If you want to spend an eveninglistening to love songs get Zulema.

As a result — and I can't quiteresolve as to why this should be so — Brechtis usually looming in the background,becoming visible only under the pressurefrom Kenneth Welsh's remarkableperformance as Ui.Hitler Ui is a small time racketeer who,taking advantage of declining marketprices, blackmails the mayor of Chicagointo letting him set up a protection racket.When the mayor (Hindenburg) dies, Uitakes power and begins to organize hisinvasion of Cicero (Austria, in case youcouldn't guess). The planned invasion stirsdissention among some of his followers, andaccordingly, the Roehm Purge, the Night ofthe Long Knives, is staged as a St.Valentine's Day type massacre, with carheadlights glaring at the audience throughthe haze of dirty blue lights. Betrayingeverybody, Hitler Ui keeps gaining andgaining in power, until by the end, in what isa truly chilling theatrical moment, hestands on a platform above the crowds,wildly shrieking about future conquests, hisvoice booming through loudspeakers in thetheater. A distance of thirty years hasn'thelped much in easing the horror of Hitler.If it had, ehen there wouldn't be muchreason for seeing this play; it would remainlocked in its own time. But (and I apologizefor making this rather belabored point)Nixon is still too fresh in our memories forus to disregard what the play has to offer.This isn't to say that all of it still works onstage. Woodman would have done bothBrecht and the audience a big favor bycutting a little here and there. The flatness of one scene in particular still leaves a badtaste: a grocer decides not to pay protectionmoney to Ui; Ui's thugs respond by burningdown his place. And voila — the Reichstagfire. The lighting on the now empty stage isa deep, dark red. Smoke pours out of theshadowy stage sets. Unfortunately, thisexhilirating tableua is spoiled by the shortbit that follows: a woman comes on stageand, in what is almost a parady of the SarahBerhardt style of acting, pleads with theaudience to resist Ui. Her voice soars, thenfalters; her hands clasp her bosom; hereyes look mournfully, pleadingly at theaudience In the middle of this soliloquy she isshot down by invisible rifle fire. My God, it'sembarassing! Many people in the audiencethat night were on the verge of laughter, butsince it's impolite to laugh at anyone'sdeath, most made do with a slight snicker.I have the feeling that I've devoted toomuch time to the sombre aspects of Ui. Theplay is, after all, a farce — somewhere, asKenneth Tynan put it, between Erich vonStroheim and the Keystone Cops. There is alot of music, a lot of people tumbling abouton stage, a lot of jokes. The serious and thefarcial aspects of this piece, however, onlymerge sucessfully in Kenneth Welsh'sinterpretation of Ui Hitler.Welsh's Ui is originally almost catatonic,alternately gliding about the set dressed intrenchcoat and wide slouch hat, or slumpingin his seat like a sack of dirty laundry; heseems so insignificant, such a parody ofhumanity, that people pick him up and puthim down at will. As Ui begins his marchupward. Welsh's gestures become morenervous — almost manic — as in thatwonderful scene in which Ui is trying toblackmail the mayor, running about thestage like a crazed ameoba. It's a perfectexample of Brechtian acting: intelligent,fluid, and in this case, unforgettable.The theme of theatricality that runsthrough the play (there are some marvelousput-downs of Goethe and Shakespear) wouldhave been invisible had it not been for MrWelsh. There is a scene, for instance, duringwhich a hired ham actor (a la Betterton)attempts to coach Ui on the not so fine pointsof public speaking. As they read togetherfrom Julius Caesar, the actor's declamatorystyle is transformed by the spasmodic Ui into a carnival of Nazi gestures; the handthrown out to underline a point becomes theSeig Heil salture; the stage walk istransformed into the goose step; the armsfolded across, the chest, a gesture ofstrength, turns into Hitler's patheticallymean scowl; the arms clasped together infront of the body become that famous pose ofHitler covering his genitalia.But as of yet there is no relation betweenUi's gestures and Ui's speech. Arms fly outsaluting no one; the scowl comes onincomprehensively, regardless of sense. Ui,in short, is still a jerk; the form and contentof the man haven't met. Welsh'scontribution to the role is his portrayal of aschlemiel whose personality is dissolvedinto theatricality. The gestures becomeincreasingly more coherent until, finally,they coalesce around that one terrifyingimage of Ui, a man of pure hatred andpower, screaming at transfixed crowd andaudience.4RT —By Amy WeinsteinGeometric patterns of contrasting colorsemerge and recede, bringing into beingabstract compositional orders. Master ofFine Arts candidate Deborah Bright directsform and tone to appear as light diffractedby strange prisms. Canvases presently onexhibit at Midway Studios illustrate the lightinto the language of painting. Yet, far morethan this complex translation is realizedthrough Bright's compositions.Employing the representational motifs ofarchitectural facades, several works articulate complicated interplays of color,depth, and form. These relations extendfurther than mere blocked simplifications ofthe shaded and highlighted areas of buildingfronts utilized as models for the studios.Distinct manipulating of shape and colordistinguish moods from one canvas to thenext.An analogy to the prismic diffraction oflight develops more intricately through I wish I could credit the secondary playerswith Mr. Welsh's wit. They all, however,travel between the absolutely awful and therelatively good They are the major flaws inthe production. Roger De Kovan (a U. of C.alumnus) is an unpleasant example of anactor giving a role too much thought and toolittle stage sense. One expects a ham actorto be a hammy actor — loud, mad, andegocentric. What we get instead is asymbolic portrait; the Dramatic theater(with a very capital D) is on its last legs;ergo, the actor belonging to the dramatictheater must also be on his last legs. Mr. DeKovan's voice is feeble, and he keeps fallingasleep. That the people in the back row haddifficulty hearing him may make a goodpoint about the rhetorical manner,but it isstupid stage practice.This review is unfortunately late: theproduction will be running for only a fewmore days. If you have any chance then, gosee Kenneth Welsh. It's well worth it.seven large canvases on exhibit. Here,texture enhances spectra of subtle tonaldifferentiations, forming designs emphasized by painted lines. Grey greenscarve yawning caverns, opposing theemergence of neutrals and beige tonesTextured sections overlap one other, somepeeled back to reveal planes of orderedcolor and form lurking inconspicuouslybelowThe sensation that some finely designedprocess is at work throughout all thecompositions engenders a curiosity whichleads to closer examination of the show as awhole Most essentially, the subtle changesn color pattern and texture transform therelations of depth and shape — and thesesuccessful combinations of the elements ofpainting produce fascinating compositions.If the success of the Bright exhibition is areliableforecastfor thesu!>sequent Master ofFine Arts shows, then the outlook for springis a positive one.

Bowie hasaltered his singing style and arrangements,in his effort to approximate the music fromwhich his recent styles were presumablyderived.Some of the songs work well (the titlesong,), not that you'd mistake Bowie for OtisRedc/ing. David Sanborn's sax lines providean energetic counterpoint to lyrics whichare sung as though the punctuation markswere orchestral directions. The rhythmsection is highly innovative, and thus notquite true to the original. Despite the factthat this is Bowie's most palatable Ip todate, it is still a miss. B minusGordon Lightfoot, Cold on the Shoulder(Reprise). Another faceless success.Lightfoot's innocuous and undistinguishedsongs and vocals ride on the coattails of hisrecent hit "Sundown Lady." Totally typicalLightfoot, with no surprises and noexhiliration. C.Orleans, Let There Be Music (Asylum).Orleans is the band that the Doobie Brothersshould have been, with masterful and in¬tricate instrumental capabilities, first ratewriting, and inventive jamming. Credit goesto John Hall (first known as author of someJanis Joplin songs), who wrote most of thesesongs, sings lead, and plays a tasteful(sometimes acoustic) lead guitar.Orleans is a cerebral band, with smoothvocal harmonies and a pleasant driftingquality that one senses might open up likethe early Allman Brothers, if Orleans had along enough song. Hardly a 'boogie" band,Orleans is probably the only whiteAmerican band that can play reggae without making complete asses of them¬selves. A very promising album. A minus.Leon Russell, Will O The Wisp (Shelter).Russell has further emphasized hisrenunciation of his earlier role as the rock'sfunkiest experimental pianist. On thisrecord, he takes a completely unsuccessfulStevie Wonder trip, with quantities ofsynthesizers and a 40 track tape machine:he achieves complexity for its own sake.Russell's magnetic presence has strayedeven farther from his personal true north. Dplus.Judy Collins, Judith (Elektra). Ms.Collins new recording is her first in a verylong while, and is even more welcomebecause of that. Meticulous care has beenput into this album, from the song selectionto the individually superb arrangementsand production. "Send in the Clowns" is oneof the finest versions of that Broadwayshow stopper that I have ever heard, despitethe multiplicity of talents among its comDebtors.Ms. Collins voice is still strong, and hasdeveloped a trace of huskiness withoutlosing its familiar appeal. Her writing hasimproved in quality, if not prolificy, andsongs like Steve Goodman's "The City ofNew Orleans" illustrate that care has beentaken in providing good support (Goodmanhimself plays lead guitar). The entire Ip hasan unassuming comfortableness thatgradually becomes engrossing. A minus.Lani Hall, Hello It's Me (A&M). Ms.Hall's first album had nearly 50%of its salesin Chicago, and if the title song of this albumgets radio play, Hello It's Me could increaseher small following considerably. Her voicehas an ethereal, melancholy resonance thatincreases its appeal with repeated exposure Sadly, the rest of the album suffers fromHerb Alpert's production efforts, leavingonly Ms. Hall's own "Sweet Jams andJellies" a stylish survivor. Still, she rates asone of the most interesting female vocalstylists, and is an easily acquired taste. Bminus.Emmylou Harris, Pieces of the Sky(Reprise). This is the currently "in" albumto discover, much the way Phoebe Snow waslast winter's "in" album. Ms. Harrisoriginally got exposure with the late GramParsons on his influential country folkalbums, and now has benefited from LindaRonstadt's having solidified the appeal offemale country-rock singers.Harris has a warm deep voice that seemsutterly comfortable and persuasive, par¬ticularly on the slower cuts. In comparisonto Ronstadt, she lacks the sharp edge thatmarked Ronstadt's "You're No Good," butcompensates with a better ballad style (asopposed to belting style). Ms. Harris alsostays closer to her country sources formaterial, though the arrangements keep awary eye on the pedal steel. Among the bestsongs are "Sleepless Nights" by Boudelauxand Felix Bryant, and Ms. Harris' own"Boulder to Birmingham." Certainly analbum to catch. A minus.Wendy Waldman (Warner Bros.). Ms.Waldman has an excellent writing ability,which her own singing shows to advantagefor the first time on this album. Earlierefforts were wearyinqly muddy; the currenteffort displays a vageuly Laura Nyro stylephrasing, increased several degrees intoughness; her voice is well adapted to hermaterial.Ms. Waldman's writing talents were firstrevealed on Maria Muldaur's recordings (also on Warner Bros./ Reprise). Her songstend to be more lyrically involved thanmusically lyrical, trading in a Tin Pan Alleytunesmithy ability for a nascent astutenessof observation. Songs like "Listen to YourOwn Heart" retain their accessibilitydespite a secondary level of complexity.This is one of the fine albums which givereturns proportional to the amount of timeinvested in them.

Room 100Friday, April 25, 1975 * The Chicogo Maroon r-13UC considers Midwest ConferenceBy MIKE KLINGENSMITH©copyright Chicago Maroon 1975The University of Chicagoathletic department mayreaffiliate with an athleticconference next fall for thefirst time since theUniversity left the Big Ten in1939.Men’s athletic director,Walter Hass, and otherUniversity administratorsare enthusiastic about theprospects of affiliating withthe Midwest CollegiateAthletic Conference as earlyas next fall.The current members ofthe Midwest Conference are:Coe, Grinnell, and Cornell inIowa, Lake Forest,Monmouth, and Knox inIllinois, Beloit, Ripon, andLawrence in Wisconsin, andCarleton in Minnesota.With the addition ofChicago to the conference, itwould most likely split into ANGELUS: Ch ago isunlike any other school.Our physical and in¬tellectual makeup requiresthat we have the flexibilityof an independent."Conference opponents. TheMaroons would, however, beMAROON SPORTSANALYSIStwo divisions. Chicago hasregularly competed againstMidwest Conferenceopponents for several years.The Maroon football teamplayed MidwesternersBeloit, Lake Forest,Lawrence, and Grinnell lastseason. The basketball teamplayed Lawrence, Grinnell,Knox, and Lake Forest eligible for the Conferencemeets, at which thechampionships are decided.In baseball, theConference structure is suchthat state tournaments areheld (with one Iowa teamrotating to Minnesota) withstate winners advancing tothe four-team Conferencetournament.HASS: These are types of schools that it would begood to compete against. They are good academicschools and it would be good exposure for us.'(twice) during the winter.The track team went as faras hosting the MidwestConference Indoor TrackMeet, which they won.Chicago’s relationship tothe conference would beunique in that it would be anaffiliate, rather than amember. As an affiliate, theMaroons would be eligiblefor conferencechampionships in years inwhich they participated inthe minimum number ofgames, and would simplyhave a ‘‘connectedschedule” in other years.In the individual sportssuch as swimming, tennis,and wrestling, there wouldbe no obligation to schedule member of thedual meets against Midwest Conference.)At the present time, theMidwest Conference does notoffer structured competitionin gymnastics or fencing. Inaddition they have no formalcompetition in women’sathletics.The Maroon hcs talked tomany parties involvedclosely with athletics at theUniversity. What follows istheir opinion about theadvantages anddisadvantages ofcompetition in the MidwestConference.Walter Hass; MensAthletic Director. (Mr. Hassis a former athletic directorand football coach atCarleton College inNorthfield, Minnesota - aMidwest“Dean14—The Chicago Maroon - Friday, April 25, 1975 O’Connell and myselfattended the MidwestConference AthleticDirector’s meeting on April6-7. They are definitely veryinterested in having us join.The Conference is more thanjust an athletic conference.The Deans meet, studentactivities directors meet andsoon. I feel, basically, that itwould be a good idea. Theseare types of schools that itwould be good to competeagainst. They are goodacademic schools and itwould be good exposure forus. I’m sure that the crowdswould improve and thevarious alumni associationswould become interested ....We would be handicappedin football since they playtheir first game on the daythat we open practice. Wecouldn’t expect our playersto come to school five weeksearly. That is why we arethinking in terms of anassociation, where wewouldn’t be committed tofull conference play.There is a strongpossibility of division, andplayoffs with the two numberone teams would meeting,and so on down the line. Thefirst year, any connectionwould be a matter of fillingin our schedule with a fewmore Conference opponents’’James Vice; AssistantDean of Students in theUniversity. “What we areproposing is an affiliationwith the Conference. I thinkthat the schools in theconference have a similarapproach to athletics. Alsothe size of the undergraduateprograms is about the same.I don’t think that we everenvision trying to establish afull conference schedule inall sports. Calender andinstitutional differencesmake it difficult to join andthat’s whey we areaffiliating. What we would beattempting to establish is astable relationship as anaffiliated insitution. Some ofthe conference rules wouldbe amended in small ways inour case.I am in favor participatingin the conference. I feel thatit would establish a regularlevel of competition for ourprogram. Some of theschools that we play nowreally have nothing incommon with Chicago. Ithink that we would developalumni and parents’ interest.In addition, I feel that itwould increase interschoolfriendships, adding to thepleasure of competing inintercollegiate athletics. Iknow that most of theseschools have strongcontingents of alumnisupporters...Although at the presenttime the conference has noformal organization ofwomen’s atheltics. I feel thatthe affiliation could bebeneficial in the long run infacilitating joint schedulingin the men’s and women’sdepartments.”John Angelus; Assistantbasketball and head baseballcoach. “I really feel that thetime and money could bebetter spent in playing moreprestigious schools in the IvyLeague and the East coast,or in takipg more enjoyabletrips to Florida and the South.The real problem inplaying a full conferenceschedule is the stress oftravelling which would beplaced upon our students. Wewould rather take one bigtrip every other year thanspend four years traveling toGrinnell. Three Midwesttrips would beapproximately equal to onebig eastern trip, financially.Time is the key here.Chicago is unlike any otherschool. Our physicial andintellectual make uprequires that we have theflexibility of an independent.In this way, we can playteams like the University ofSouth Florida when we’reup, but we’re not locked intoplaying them when we’renot. The worst thing we coulddo is overschedule andhumiliate our players whileoverburdening themacademically.In our baseball program,for example, using all ourfunds for a spring trip ismore worthy than travelingto Knox and being rainedout. We can get in a 28-31game schedule by travelingwhen school is out when kidsaren’t worried about classesand exams. In addition thereare several Conferencerestrictions that we wouldfind it hard to live with, forinstance, basketball practicecan’t begin until NovemberMULVANEY: I wouldto see, eventually, men sand women's teamsschedule cooperativelyand travel together."15th. But whatever thedecision. I’ll try to do mybest under any situation.”John Schael; Director ofRecreation and Facilities,assistant football and headwrestling coach. “I feel thatwe can build a good programas an independent. We canplay anybody, and we canattract attention to ourprogram. Now we canschedule according to talent.If we join we will be locked into a conference withrestrictions.It’s not good to be adoormat, it’s bad for thestudents...I personally don’t see it asa step up. I think theconference would benefit,but we wouldn’t.The travel wouldn’t goover with the kids. Theycan’t afford to leave theschool. This school is verycompetitive academicallyand students have realconcerns over overadmission to grad schools,etc.” Mary Jean Mulvaney;Women’s Athletic Director. Idon’t really know what affectit would have on the women’sprogram. As of now, thewomen’s athletics in theMidwest Conference arecompletely unstructured. Iwould, however, be the others.The sole increase in ourbudget came from a $2,000increase in transportationcosts.I think that you (Chicago)would get as much out of theconference as we haveYou’ll find yourself playingVICE: I don't see that it would affect our presentprogram in a major way for next year. In fact, I don'tthink that we ever envision trying to establish a fullconference schedule."enthusiastic towards seeingChicago help develop astrong women’s program inthe Midwest Conference.I would like to see,eventually, men’s andwomen’s teams schedulecooperatively and traveltogether. It makes moresense to send a full bus andschedule two events. Thiswould save money and, Ithink, would be fun for thestudents. (Dean Viceestimated roughly anincrease of $8,000 in travelexpenses should Chicagoaffiliate with theconference.)One drawback to fullparticipation in MidwestConference programs is thatwe are importantlyorganized along state lineswith the AIAW tournamentstructure. Necessarily wewould have to continue toplay substantial numbers ofgames with Illinois teams.John Nelson; Outgoingathletic director andbasketball coach. LakeForest College. (Mr. Nelsonis a graduate of Chicago andLake Forest is presentlycompleting their first year ofcompetition in the MidwestConference) “We havetremendously enjoyed ourfirst year in the conference.It has really increased theethusiasm of our kids. TheConference gives themsomething more to lookforward to than just playinggames. Traditional rivalriesdevelop and it helps tosustain momentum. Evenwhen you have a losingteam, there is excitement inthe possibility of an upset.We played only fiveconference football gamesthis season and won only oneof them. (Lake Forestdefeated Chicago 32-0) Inbasketball we finished 9-7,tied for fourth place.(Chicago lost to Lake Forest73-51 and defeated them 46-43) Regardless of the results,our players really lookedforward to the conferencegames, much more so than the people with the samephilosophy of athletics. Inthe Midwest Conferenceyou’re competing withgentlemen.As far as the travel isconcerned, we had a 12 manbasketball squad and playeda 16 game league schedule.This would almost certainlybe reduced iLChicago entersor Monmouth returns (theyare on temporarysuspension). Still, wc lostonly 14 class-hours for thewhole season.We had three overnighttrips and left at the latestpossible moment on Friday.The kids really enjoyed thetravel. We always took fansand chearlearders with us.The student governmentpayed the chearleader’sexpenses.There is no existingwomen’s athletic programin the Conference. However,Lake Forest and Lawrenceare actively organizing anoutside basketball league fornext year, not along the linesof the Midwest ConferenceIt will include Marquette, StNorbert’s, and Carroll,among others.”SCHAEL; ”1 personallydon't see it as a step up. Ithink the conferencewould benefit, but wewouldn't."LMAROON CLASSIFIED ADS* |l • 4jt ' II* t il* I4 tSPACERommmate wanted for sonny EastHyde Park apt Call 241 75893 rm \ bed apt on 1st fl w/ balcony vie54th 8.
