SG Elects Spinrad; SeeksNew Administration TiesBy Deborrah HarroldAlex Spinrad. Presidentpro tempore of StudentGovernment after theresignation of FariborzMaissami, was electedPresident by the AssemblyMonday night, January 19.by a vote of 47-20.Mr. Spinrad was opposedby only one other candidate,Bob Tomchik, Elections andRules Chairman. Election ofa new Vice-President waspostponed until the nextmeeting, on January 26.Recommended budgetallocations by CORSO(Committee on RecognizedStudent Activities) werevigorously debated by theAssembly. Primavera, awomen’s literary magazine,received an additional$547.81 grant and $43.05 in loan; CORSO recommended$100 grant and $340.00. Thisadditional grant exhaustedtotal funds remaining toCORSO, except funds heldaside for as yet tentativelybudgeted spring activities.In his election speech tothe Assembly, Mr. Spinrademphasized the need forStudent Government toactively advance studentinterests. He specified risingtuition costs as an issue andnoted the possibility forparticipation by StudentGovernment in a coalition ofpriva te educa tionalinsitutions lobbying in theIllinois State Legislature tothis end. He also stressed theneed for reasoned and significant discussion withthe UniversityAdministration over risingcosts.Legal aid for students hasbeen a continuous interest ofMr. Spinrad. Currently,University of Chicagostudents can receive onlycounsel at the Mandel LegalAid Clinic and must useanother branch office of theGinic (there is a branchoffice downtown) to obtainrepresentation.Bob Tomchik. the othercandidate, emphasized theneed for StudentGovernment to redirect andconsolidate its abilitiesSG TO 14Blacks Back Wallace, RunAs 1st District DelegatesOakland Owner Offers OrangeBy David BlumCharles O.

Money is onlysecondary,” said the self-made millionaire and one¬time owner of threeprofessional sports clubs. ‘‘Ijust used my money to buy abaseball team, which gaveme happiness.”Finley fumed over theconservative attitude takenby club owners and baseballmanagement about changesin the sport's rules.

Initiativesmentioned in the ’74 reportinclude efforts to keepdepartment chairpeopleinformed of federalrequirements, publicizing ofopen faculty positions,examination of “thecircumstances to be used inthe search for facultyappointments" by a facultycommittee, and review ofrecruitment practices andsalaries.Cedric Chernick, AssistantVice President andAffirmative Action Officerfor the University,coordinates the University’saffirmative action policies.SEX DISC TO 13Budget Hinders AffirmativeAction; Women Denounce UC By David Axelrodand Mi*e JonesGov.

He has lostevery attempt to be placedon the Democratic ticket; hislast attempt in 1972 almostcost him his life and placedhim in a wheel chair.Now, once again, Wallaceis trying for the monination.This is his best organizedand best financed campaign.Using the tactic of his pastfoe, George McGovern, hehas an active grassrootscampaign in many states.The years of campaigninghave paid off; he now has animpressive mailing listwhich regularly brings in$150 thousand to $400thousand. The newcampaign financing lawswhich match the first $250 that a candidate receivesfrom an individual greatlyhelp him since most of hiscontributions are small.This year, for the firsttime, he is facing a seriouschallenge in an area onceconceded to him — the South.Florida, the first significantface-off between Wallaceand Carter in the South, is adifferent state than it wasfour years ago when Wallacewon in a crowded field,gaining over 42% of the vote.This year, there will not be apro-busing amendment onthe Florida ballot. Wallaceran hard against theproposal, which certainlyincreased his margin ofvictory.But Carter still has a longway to go if he is to unseatWallace in the South. A pollreported in an Evans andNovak column of December10, 1975 showed Wallace withconsiderable support amongblue collar workers inJacksonville. Most of hissupporters indicated thatthey “strongly support’’him.Wallace is running in someof the pre-primary caucuses,most notably this Saturday’sMississippi caucus. He willnot enter the NewHampshire primary and will make his first direct appealto the voters in the March 2Massachusetts primary. Hehopes to do well in a statecurrently smoldering overthe busing issue and thecourt order placing Bostonschools in Federalreceivorship.His toughest challenge,aside from Florida, will be inthe May primaries. He willface Bensen of Texas, Carterof Georgia, Bayh of Indianaand Byrd of West Virginia intheir home states and mustcontinue his popularity inPROFILETennessee, Michigan.Maryland and Kentucky.His strategy is to come intothe convention with one thirdor more of the totaldelegates. He believes thatno other candidate will beable to match that numberand therefore he will be in anideal position to wheel anddeal for a spot on the ticketor for other concessions fromthe Democratic party.He traditionally opposesNew On57th StreetMedieval & Modern FrenchLiteratureEarly American HistoryAnthropology & ArchaeologyMarxismMusic ScoresOpen till 11 everydayPOWELL’S1501 E. 57th 955-77809-11 everyday1020 S.

He isagainst welfare increasesand believes that muchwelfare money should beredirected to the SocialSecurity system.Nationally, he continues torail against big governmentand the massive,uncontrolled Washingtonbureaucracy. He attacksbusing, but the tenor of theattack is no longer racial. Heis against court orderedbusing as another exampleof the federal governmentinterfering in the lives ofindividual citizens. He alsosees busing as anotherexample of how the courtsystem has stopped rulingand started legislating.When he took office asGovernor, Alabama rated45th among the states in perpupil educationalexpenditure; 48th inphysicians per 100,000persons; 47th in percent ofdraftees passing the mentaltests; 47th in percent of people with incomes abovethe poverty level; 45th in percapita income; and 45th ininfant mortality. But the factremains that nothing muchis changed today.Now Alabama ranks 50thin per pupil educationalexpendture; 48th inphysicians per 100,000persons; 48th in percent ofdraftees passing mentaltests; 47th in percent ofpeople with incomes abovethe poverty level ; 45th in percapita income; and 48th ininfant mortality. Both thestate school system and thestate correctional systemare under court order toimprove past performance.This year, he is running afull slate of condidateseverywhere in Illinois exceptfor the liberal Near NorthSide of Chicago. His slatetotals 152 — the most of anyof the announcedDemocrats. Only Stevensonand Walker have moredelegates slated.Some of his DuPageCounty delegate petitionshave been challenged for violations of Illinois electionlaws. If the challenge isupheld, the remainingpetitions will fall 24 namesshort of the number neededto place his delegates in therace.He is the only announcedcandidate activelychallenging Mayor Daley inthe Chicago districts. He iseven running a slate inDaley’s own fifth district. Inthe first district, whichincludes Hyde Park. Wallaceis running an all Black slate.How well his health holdsduring the strenuouscampaign will influencewhether his health becomesan issue. The first challengefacing the Wallace campaignis his success in keeping thesupport of the South. Hissecond challenge is hisability to meet or exceed his1972 support in other areas ofthe country. These threefactors, more than anyothers, will determine if hewill be King.

Since 1963, Mr.Zimring said, the homiciderate has risen from 4.3 to 9.7per 100,000 people.

He observed thatwhile political leadersapproach the issue of crimewith “piety,” they do notsincerely addressthemselves to the roots of theproblem. The levels ofpoverty in the black ghetto,with the concomitantinstability of the blackfamily, will remainprevalent until thegovernment reorders itspriorities, he adds. Mr.Zimring noted that all levelsof government have failed tocomprehend the importanceof serious gun controlmeasures.Dr. Freedman added apsychological perspective toProfessor Zimring’sobservations concerningblack criminal behavior.According to Freedman,“Blacks are born intoviolence.

STRANGELOVE Cobb Hall$1ChicagoDebatingSocietyThe Chicago Maroon — Friday, January 23 - 3COMMENTAddiction:The U C ConnectionBy Gage AndrewsThe opinions expressed inthis column are those of theauthor, and do notnecessarily express theopinion of the Maroon, or itseditorial board.This University creates,fosters, and forces upon itsstudents a peculiaraddiction: academicaccomplishment. The theoryof the “University of ChicagoConnection” states that oursis an arena, like the arenasdescribed by the phrases“Marseilles Connection” or“French Connection,” inwhich a seriouslydebilitating substance isbeing distilled into its purestform, before it reaches theaddicts. The effects of allConnections are the same:the warping of the addict’sperspective until all sense ofpriorities and ideals aresacrificed to a craving forthe narcotic. In this case, thenarcotic is academicsuccess.The academic pressuresare intense. People go toRegenstein not because it isthe campus social center.Regenstein became thecampus social centerbecause everyone wentthere. People pound theirbooks into their heads toavoid pounding their headsinto the wall; it is a viciousCatch-22. People studyingfor A’s make the competitionfor A’s that much harder;they must study still harderto overcome the competitionthey themselves arecreating.The narcotic of academicadvancement carries intonon-academic areas, mostparticularly studentactivities. Graduate schools,and also businesses, consider both the academicrecord and theextracurricular activities oftheir applicants. Thus, notonly do the symptoms ofaddiction spill over intoactivities, but the activitiesthemselves reinforce theinitial addiction.Students play politics witha jugular-ripping intensitywhich is matched, within theUniversity, only in theacademic arena.The political in-fightinghas recently reached newheights. Leaders of studentorganizations have beenassailed, disillusioned, andin some cases pushedprecipitously towardsresignation as though it werea long flight of stairs downwhich they could tumble.Student organizations havenot benefited from suchactions; the organizationshave merely served as theproving ground for thepremise that a person withbroad interests, goodintentions, and any sort ofideals is too naive to longsurvive.When such an idealisticperson steps into theleadership of a studentorganization, he enters agame of Russian roulette inwhich he seems to be theonly player. The alternativeto this maelstrom is thepower approach, wellcaptured by the phrase “lead’em or bleem ’em.” By thispolicy, underlings are kept inline by fear of retribution:the loss of their presentposition, the removal ofsome cherished possessionor privilege, or — returningto the original arena ofconflict — some form ofacademic retribution.Neither form of leadership isacceptable.No matter what fancyterminology is used to justifythe bloodletting, sharp-clawed jealousy and fang¬toothed ambition remain themotives. The claws willnever be sheathed and thefangs will never be covereduntil the addiction is broken,the narcotic destroyed, andthe University of ChicagoConnection is eliminated.chicooSMaroonEDITORSEditor Gage AndrewsNews editor John VailLayout J.

MartinAssistant to theDean of StudentsForeign Admissions andForeign StudvEditor:The Maroon’s report oflast week’s unsuccessfulattempt to impeach theleaders of the ChicagoDebating Society requiresamplification.As your reporter wrote,“The story was complicated,and few people, including thedefendants, seemed sure ofthe details.” This should notbe surprising: Theprosecution was a hasty,hurried attempt at a quickcoup d’etat, with thedefendants given only oneday upon their return fromthe First TransatlanticDebating Competition inLondon, England, to learn ofthe charges and to preparetheir defense.That the impeachmentwas rejected is a tribute tothe Society’s sense of fairplay, and to the ability of itsmembers to pierce the veil ofpost-Watergate rhetoricwhich concealed thesubstance and motivation ofthe prosecution’s attack. Theunderlying cause of theeruption is probably to befound in a long-smolderingdispute over the Society’sgovernance which has ragedbetween the minority“aristoratic” faction,headed by last week’sprosecutors, and themajority “democratic”faction, led by the Society’spresent officers. (It shouldbe noted, for the record, thatthe field of disputation is alsocrowded by a small“anarchist” faction; but,after all, what would oneexpect in a debatingsociety?)The essence of theimpeachment allegationswas, simply, that thedebating team whichrepresented the Universityat the First TransatlanticDebating Competition hadusurped some privilege oropportunity properlybelonging to the Society-at-large, and had, in theprocess, absconded with theSociety’s treasury. Thesecharges are palpably false.The team which debated atLondon —and which,incidentally, won the Trans¬ atlantic championship —consisted of the ChicagoDebating Society’s threechief officers plus a fourthSociety member. The teamwas sponsored by the AlumniAssociation and the Class of1931, through the AlumniSpecial Debating Program.The Alumni Program wasorganized last summer, byand with the knowledge andconsent of the ChicagoDebating Society, whichvoted to accept the planworked out by the alumniorganizers and the Society’sofficers. The Program hascertain specific and limitedpurposes. Its principalobjective is theentertainment of the June,1976, alumni reunion with aseries of fairly high-leveldebates on Bicentennialthemes between studentsfrom the University ofChicago and from OxfordUniversity. Oxford hasaccepted the alumniinvitation, and the Programnow has commitments tofulfill.The Program’s secondobjective was to completethe Bicentennial yearexchange by acceptingOxford’s invitation for aChicago team to visitBritain. Beyond that, theProgram also envisionspermanent bonds betweenalumni and the Society, tothe end that the Societymight benefit from anaugmented speakingschedule and from financialand other alumni support.The members of the teamwhich gained the Anglo-American title were selectedin August, 1975, by theAlumni Program’sorganizers following—at myinsistence—notice and aninvitation to participategiven to every member ofthe Chicago DebatingSociety. The team wasnamed at an early date forsimple reasons: The alumniorganizers wanted to vestresponsiblity in individualstudents who would committhemselves to carrying outthe Program’s purposes,including the performance ofall of the chores involved inraising the necessary funds.This commitment includedthe pledge to devote the timeand energy required toprepare a team for successin a heavy schedule ofserious, public debates.Only one deviation fromthe Alumni Program’soriginal timetable has beenmade. The existence of theFirst TransatlanticCompetition came to ourattention in examinationweek of Autumn Quarter,last December, only threeweeks before the tournamentwas to begin. Uponconsultation with ourcolleagues at Oxford andwith the University’s Dean ofStudents, the core team andits alumni sponsors decidedthat participation in theJanuary tournament inLondon would be morevaluable, and a better use ofour resources, than theoriginally-planned trip toOxford in the spring. TheLondon tournament afforded'h highly-structuredopportunity for contact withnumerous British andCanadian debaters, and alsoheld out the possibility ofgaining a championship title The scheduled visit ot Oxfordwould have beensignificantly ldss visible, andwould have involved muchless actual debating. Resultsclearly validate our decision.Funding for the AlumniProgram is completelyseparate from the treasuryof the Chicago DebatingSociety, of which I am alsothe guardian. The AlumniProgram is financed entirelyby contributions earnedthrough the special team’spublic appearances orsolicited from alumni andprivate donors by the specialteam and its alumnisponsors. The two fundshave never beenintermingled, nor has oneever been plundered or heldhostage for the benefit of theother. They are channeledthrough separate accounts inthe office of the Dean ofStudents, and I amresponsible to the Dean —myliability being personal andunlimited—for the properdisposition of both.The record should note, bythe way, that the AlumniProgram and the spnsors ofthe London tournamentcovered only about one-halfof the actual expenses of thefour Chicago debaters whoparticipated. Thebalance—including, forexample, the costs of our airtravel to Montreal, where wejoined the transatlanticcharter flight of theAmerican and Canadiandelegations—was borne byour own pocketbooks.The only commingling ofAlumni Program andSociety funds will come atthe conclusion of theBicentennial reunion when,with all expenses of theOxford team’s visit paid, thesurplus funds raised willenter the Society’s treasuryto support its regularoperating budget. My owndeisre, as a prospectivealumnus, is that the AlumniProgram will continuethereafter to support theChicago Debating Society’sregular operations,especially its annual highschool studentcongress—which is a boonfor College recruitment—and its future participa¬tion in what we hope willbecome an annual Trans¬atlantic Debating Compe¬tition.I conclude with a personalnote. Dean O’Connell and ouralumni benefactors insistthat they have never for amoment questioned myintegrity or my word; this Ido not doubt, and 1 amgrateful for the supportwhich they have given methroughout this absurdcrisis. But I cannot help butfeel that they may have beena little shaken in the faithwhich they have placed inmy prudence and myjudgment, V not in my abilityto lead the Chicago DebatingSociety.For this reason I deeplyresent the attempt which hasbeen made to smear my goodname, and the good names ofmy colleagues, DonaldBingle, Leon Bronfin, andThomas DiStefano. Theattempt has been bothgroundless and venal.This year is my seventhand final year of studentservice to the University’sdebating program. In seven years my partners and Ihave brought several highand international honors tothe University, not the leastof which was the title withwhich returned last week. Iwill not have themdisparaged. In that time Ihave labored to build a basisof financial support fordebate, to make a traditionof regular public debates oncampus, and to transmitsome legacy to youngerdebaters. In my fiveremaining months in office Ishall continue this work, andshall be supported, I amsure, by the vast majority ofthe members of the ChicagoDebating Society.Joseph A .

Although the basicstructure of the play is that of a comedy,many of the underlying tensions of the playundercut the basic comic theme, the love ofPortia and Bassanio, and add a strange noteof irony to the piece. As a study indramaturgy, it demonstrates Shakespeare'sexperimentation with and stretching of thecomic framework to produce a work withmany non-comic themes. As a production,however, these conflicting undercurrents ofthe play, such as the characters of Shylockand Antonio, or Shakespeare's use of the foolin Launcelot Gobbo, can make the playconfusing, unsatisfying, and strangelyempty and bleak.Fortunately, the current production of theplay at the Wisdom Bridge Theatre chosenot to approach the play as a study in theinterstices of Shakespearean dramaturgy,but instead, to play it as a comedy. Thismeans that some of the more complexcharacters come across with very littledepth, and that some of the themes that areoften identified with the play have been allbut eliminated. The producer-director of theshow, David Beaird, has a very definiteinterpretation of the play, and succeeds intransforming an ambiguous and disturbingwork into a pleasing and occasionallythoughtful comedy. Even those who view theplay as the tragedy of Shylock will be in¬terested to see a group of generally com¬petent people mount a successful realizationof one of Shakespeare's more difficultworks.Mr. Beaird's interpretation of the playerased the complexity of the title character,Antonio. There is a strange despondencyand arrogance to Antonio in reading the playthat makes him come across as a dejectedparent or fading lover. Douglas Anderson,however, played him as an amiable androbust elder brother, complete with a stageyItalian accent that occasionally assumedthe cadence of a brogue. I have alwaysviewed Antonio as the pivotal character ofthe play, since he determines in what lightPortia and Shylock should be played. SinceAntonio was played with no substance, Shylock had very little to play off of, andconsequently he became little more than avengeful moneybags with a stagey Yiddishaccent. John Green played Shylock quitewell in this context, and avoided much of the cheap pathos that can make Shylock's roleobjectionable and the play mawkishlymelodramatic. My only major criticism ofMr. Green's performance was his additionof an Olivier-like howl at the end of the trial scene, a device that I found embarrassingand basically untrue to the character ofShylock.Only Trish Hagen, as Portia, was given anopportunity to examine much of the depth ofher complex role. Portia's character isgreatly interdependent with both Antonioand Shylock. If Antonio comes across as toohaughty and despondent, Portia can becomean aristrocratic and disdainful goddess on apedestal. If Shylock is played too much of avillain, or too much the rightfully wrathfulobject of persecution, Portia can comeacross as the avenging angel of the goyim,or a Shakespearean harbinger of theGestapo, and thereby make such a mockeryof the comic structure of the play as toradically alter the effect of the work. Sinceneither Shylock nor Antonio was givensufficient force to undercut the comedy ofthe play, Portia became a fair lady and anembodiment of intelligent mercy. Ms.Hagen played Portia as frankly sensual, andused her considerable physical beauty tomake her character all the more likeable.She played the trial scene with an even-handed logic and determination that suc¬cessfully proved Shylock a villain withoutturning prosecution into persecution.Steve Fletcher played Bassanic,technically the protagonist of the play, witha fine and talented excellence. Mr. Fletcheralso played Launcelot Gobbo, Shylock'sservant, with open-handed farce thatreinforced the comic structure the directorso insistently underscored.Nancy Sigworth, as Nerissa, Portia'sservant, played her role with a vinegarinessthat made pertness snippy, and flir¬tatiousness cute. Although this did not makeMs. Sigworth's performance verypleasurable, it did serve as a foil to makePortia all the more desirable. Matthew D.Causey, as Bassanio's sensualistic friendGratiano, was hampered by the fusion ofmany of Gratiano's lines with those ofSalerio and Solanio, who were effectivelycut from the play. Although Salerio andSolanio are only necessary to the play to(continued on page 8)“Hustle” is All-American BanalityBy Karen HellerFor those who love that special genre offilm deemed ''the American film," RobertAldrich's latest, Hustle, is just the thing.There is nothing even slightly 'foreign' inthis film; it is purely and completelyAmerican, Grade A stamped. Who needscomplex and confusing characters whenAldrich offers Burt 'Macho' Reynolds, aman of small words and big actions, as ahero? Why bother with difficult andunresolved plots when you can settle fornone at all? And why employ ingeniouscreative devices to contribute to the 'art'of fhe film when television has alreadyperfected such vehicles? Hustle offers allthese things and much, yes much, much,more.Set in sunny, wonderful Los Angeles,Hustle focuses on the life of a policedetective, portrayed by Burt Reynolds. His partner in solving cases is not onlyblack and liberal but also laughs atReynolds' wisecracks. His girl friend(Catherine Deneuve) is a call-girl who isboth bored and beautiful, as all call-girlsare. Everything that Reynolds does is onehundred percent American. He drinksBushmills, drives a red Mustang and, attimes, even his girl friend seemsAmerican. Besides drinking and eyeingattractive women with his partner andmaking love fully clothed with his girlfriend, Reynolds spends the rest of histime defending such misrepresentedunderdogs as an albino and a man with awoman's shoe fetish.Reynolds' big case concerns a youngwoman who has died from an self-inducedoverdose of barbituates. Reynolds knowsthat she has committed suicide and he'sright (as always) but her father (BenJohnson) is convinced she was murdered.Burt doesn't want to get involved because she spent her last evening with a big,powerful union attorney (Eddie Albert)who's corrupt and no good (like all bigunion attorneys.) But our hero decides toget involved because Ben Johnson is crazybut loveable and a nobody and someonehas got to protect him. The viewer knowsthat the father is a nobody because thehero says so. In fact, he repeatedly says soto the attorney, to the police chief, and tohis girl friend. The father kills the attorneyeven though his daughter clearly did diefrom suicide. In the end, the nobody fathertriumphs over the somebody attorneybecause although he's crazy andunimportant, he is still alive and that'sbetter than being dead. Is that clear?The interesting thing about Hustle is thelevel of banality it produces. Every aspectof the film achieves the same quality —one of apathy and boredom. All thecharacters are equally mundane and pitiful. In spite of her thick French accentand perfect features, Catherine Deneuveseems as normal and American aseveryone else. Her boredom and ice coldmannerisms even make her look common.She ceases to be beautiful because shesenses nothing. Even the attorney'swickedness is unmoving. He becomes thesame as Reynolds. Everyone just doestheir business without thought or emotion.There is no energy in anything but thefaither's love for his daughter — and thenthe viewer is told that the father is crazy.Such ideas are fascinating but theydemand the support of interestingdialogue, tight plot and good acting. Hustlehas none of these things. Aldrich'sbasically good intentions are drowned inthe numerous gimmicks he employes.Technically, he utilizes every vehicle thatone expects to find in television. He even(continued on Daoe ?)IMH ■ * ( H i/;’iYfViViYt%til,,TheGreyCityJournol 4 lCN ’A Literary ViewAvoiding Mis-informationand escaping QuicksandBy Miles ArcherDid you know that the Battle of BunkerHill was not fought on Bunker Hill? Oh, youdid. How about: Did you know that Darwindid not use the phrase "Survival of the fit¬test"?Still too easy? Then try these on for size:Did you know that Delilah did not cutSamson's hair? That Cleopatra was notEgyptian? That a compass does not pointnorth? Nor does it point to the magneticnorth pole? That, areawise, Jacksonville,Florida, is almost twice the size of LosAngeles? Or that Big Ben is neither theclock, nor the tower but is actually the nameof the bell?These corrections of popular, almostuniversally believed misconceptions comefrom a recently published book entitled TheDictionary of Mis-information by TomBurnam (Crowell, $9.95). The dictionarycontains hundreds of entries on a widevariety of subjects, with each entrypresenting the fact as it is falsely believed,then giving the true facts. Just as the sub¬ject matter varies a great deal, so do thelengths of the entries, ranging from aparagraph to several pages, and often in¬ cluding an interesting story or two behindthe facts.For example, after giving the history ofthe invention of the flush toilet by ThomasCrapper, it refers the reader interested infurther information to a recent Crapperbiography entitled Flushed With Pride.The book is in the same publishing genreas almanacs and Ripley's Believe it or Notbooks (though on a more intellectual plane),and, as such, is inclined to have its ownleanings and prejudices. Since Burnam is aprofessor of English at Portland StateUniversity in Oregon, it is not surprisingthat the inclination of the subjects of thisbook are toward literature.And, in a strong sense, the literarymisconceptions are the ones that are themost interesting in this book, though some ofthe corrections seem like mere quibbling.After tossing out all the entries that simplyquarrel with exact wording of a quote (e.g.,it is the "love of money" rather than"money" that is the "root of all evil"), anumber of the literary misconceptions ariseout of actual changes in the Englishlanguage. Shakespeare, it seems, has beenmost susceptible to this problem, with aslew of misread lines. For example, "Getthee to a nunnery" is actually Elizabethanslang for "go join a whorehouse," and thephrase, "brevity is the soul of wit," had anMonday, January 26thtionvSTtlBmton-JudsoriM 8 p.m.SKB t: ■ h(i01 Ab¬ original meaning that does not reallycoincide with modern usage. Perhaps thatmost striking example of language changeis the popularly used phrase "no love lostbetween them." In its original context, ithas a meaning which is exactly the oppositeof the common usage.There are a couple of things to object to inthe book. Burman has a tendency to make*Hustle9 "black and white" statements about varioustopics in which the truth is not so "black andwhite." The most striking example is in hisentry on capital punishment, where heclaims that statistics show that capitalpunishment does not act as a deterrent tomurder. This particular mistake is ratheramusing since recent work by members ofthe faculty at the U of C has shown thaf thisstatistical "fact" may not be true. There arealso other mistatements and/ or over¬statements in the book, though no others asmajor as this.Regardless of these slight faults, the bookis a lot of fun and may even save your life(with its section on how to escapequicksand) or make you a lot of money (ifyou can get people to bet with you aboutthings they are "sure are true"). Maybe it'sbest to end with two of my favorite entries,both dealing with grammatical "rules" thatBurman claims are not true: that it iscorrect to invariably avoid split infinitivesand that prepositions are things that oneshould never end a sentence with.(continued from page 1)uses Mission Impossible re-runs and clipsfrom such classics as Moby Dick and AMan and A Woman to spice up his ownwork. And if that's not enough, Aldrichuses quasi-detective music for the bigchase scene and pseudo-Italian musiceverytime Reynolds gazes at his calendar-picture of Rome, which he once visited andis his idea of paradise.None of this helped by the sloppyscreenplay by Steve Shagan. In oneoutburst of sentimentality, Reynolds asksDeneuve to give up whoring because, hefinally admits, he loves her. Her response,"I don't know how to love anyone." Thenotion of people being divided into theimportant and the unimportant issomewhat less than original but stillinteresting if it is handled with a touchmore subtlety than referring to everyoneas a "somebody" or a "nobody." Withsuch loaded statements as, "Everyonehustles everyone," the viewer wonderswhether this isn't best applied to themakers of Hustle. ThcXvJournol■'$ * aaurtM m ctmosa mm r« aweditorPaul M.

The show was opened by the LivingCartoon Orchestra, a Chicago-basedaggregation of comic musicians. Burlesqueand parady of rock'n'roll oldies were themainstays of their act, which was for¬tunately augmented by leader RichMarkow's powerful voice—an asset heneeded in order to overcome a recalcitrantP.A. system.Proctor and Bergman, too, sometimesresorted to burlesque of susceptible victims(e g., Jerry Ford on the ski slopes), but theiracid wit elicited much laughter from themore cerebral members of the audience.The bulk of their act focused on two errantproprietors of a local TV station, FredFlamm (Phil Proctor) and Clark Cable(Peter Bergman), who constantly spewedforth profound absurdities reflecting theAmerican way of life. Flamm and Cablealso had the uncanny ability to metamor¬phose into any number of hilariouscharacter types from a spiral-eyed freaklecturing with great effort on the differencebetween "good drugs and bad drugs," to aused care huckster, to a Roman emperorand senatorad infinitum. Offstage, Proctorand Bergman expressedtheir recent efforts to inject more of animporvisationa! aspect into their act. Theirtalents in this respect were eminentlydisplayed as they picked up on backstageconversations about campus life and used itto tremendous effect in their openingprologue and throughout the show. There isno need to comment on the success of linesabout "radioactive football," quips aboutthe sum total of two grad students whoemerged from "Ronald ReagansteinLibrary" to see the show in "Mendel Hall,"as well as others more subtle and toonumerous to recount here.Those who were fortunate enough to listento the live interview with P & B on WHPKearlier that evening were treated to more oftheir imporvisationa! humor, as it consistedof almost entirely impromptu remarksconcerning a variety of subjects. Withregard to WHPK, it now seems likely thatProctor and Bergman's forthcoming syn¬dicated radio show wili be aired over ourstudent tration's airwaves.TM-.tt wohe*an evening for,by and aboutwomen andFRI., SAT., JAN. 23. 248:30 P.M.

")will take heart at Lasher Vallen's "BartlettBasketball" (GCJ 1/ 16/ 76). Seldom has theeditorial we contributed to such pretention,such bilge. I suppose the reason a writeruses "we" when he means "I" is as WilsonFollett explained it: an attempt to combineself-effacing modesty with the assumptionof spokesmanship for a larger body ofopinion. Readers of Mr. Vallen's article mayjudge for themselves his success at effectingmodesty ("Now, we are and always havebeen tolerant... but we think that it's kind ofsilly ...."); I should like to point out thathowever large Mr. Vallen intends his "we,"it does not reach the opinion of thisparticipant of the game at Bartlett Gym.Now, as a matter of just proportion I havedifficulty with criticism that characterizes agame of basketball as "the partial orincomplete expression of the pedagogicalspirit." Difficulty with Mr. Vallen's pointthat players at Bartlett lack the"sensibility" that the University of Chicago"impresses ... to almost everybody ...." Asensibility which is a "mindset ... acommunity spirit ... the very same one thatis part of the foundation of the greatteaching traditions that were founded yearsago and that still exist to this very day."Reread the quoted passages and thenconsider the game of basketball. Does Mr.Vallen mean to say that the players atBartlett are poor sports? I think so. It is thispoint which I wish refute. Mr. Vallen is asmistaken as he is pompous, mistaken likethe undereducated anthropologist, or likethe British journalist in Nashville.Mr. Vallen does not understand that whathe sees at Bartlett is a remarkable exercise of a species of social contract, an athleticevent for and by athletes who come togethermostly as complete strangers, and whomanage, quite well I submit, to participatein organized competition amongthemselves. I wonder that it works so well.Without written rules the group provides forthe selection of eight men to play on each oftwo courts, from, typically, eighteen totwenty-five who desire to play at any onetime. In the course of the length of a typicalworkout, all twenty-five will usually play.Basketball is fast, tight, and fraught withdispute wherever it is played, even, aspreferred, where it is played with referees.Yet, day after day the game at Bartlettthrives without referees, because theplayers as a group, of necessity, haveadopted certain rules and discarded others.What may look like bad sportsmanship isreally part of the game, this game, thisunique, adoptive species of basketball.Close observation of how the game is playedbears me out.The point may be illustrated by using oneof Mr. Vallen's examples. He laments thatsome violations are "called" while others"more crucial" are not, the example beingthe five second inbounds pass violation(called), and the three second foul laneviolation (not called). Mr. Vallen is correctin his observation that the one violation isenforced vociferously, often inconsistently,while the other violation is completelyignored. The reason for the apparentinconsistency is the principle that in thegame at Bartlett violations exist only ifeffective corroboration is possible. In theinbounding situation, all eyes are on theinbounder; in the foul lane situation,contrarily, concentration is everywhere buton the man in the foul lane. The three secondrule could never be fairly and adequatelyenforced by players, therefore the rule doesnot exist. It's not just that the violation isnever "called." It is not part of theunarticulated compact among the players.Mr. Vallen's numbing misunderstandingof the game is also evident in a similar point.He correctly observes, and unabashedlydespairs, the fact that a player may knockhis opponent to the floor and suffer nopenalty, whereas a foul may be called whena player no more than glances an opponent. The answer here is that it is up to the personwho suffers the blow to call the foul. If nofoul is called, it is because the player who isknocked to the floor chooses not to call it.His team may be ahead, or perhaps—ithappens—he feels obliged to let the violationgo uncalled as a way of admitting his guilt ina similar situation at the other end of thecourt. In effect, the player declines thepenalty—a rather useful innovation. If aplayer does call a foul, as he may eventhough the blow is relatively trifling,opponents may often disagree, and say so;yet, the fact is that the call is honoredabsolutely. In rare instances a player maypolice the game unfairly. Artfully, the groupwill force that player to conform to customas the group perceives it—in effect, to alterhis behavior—accomplishing what formalrules elsewhere accomplish.Just who is Lasher Vallen? Was he theopponent of mine last week who dribbled outof bounds with the score tied nine apiece?The quiet thin kid two days later who sanknothing until the last bucket was needed?The answer is that it doesn't matter, andthis, I submit, is the beauty of the game.Anyone who comes to Bartlett plays. Oneshows up alone, yet is able to participate inteam sport. The game is different because ithas to be, not because the players haveforgotten the teachings of John Dewey. Iconfess to enjoy the game immensely.Jeff Banchero “Click, ” continuedEditor—Your January 16 issue included a letterfrom Name Withheld objecting to themovements of a photographer during theperformance of the Chicago SymphonyOrchestra in Mandel Hall on the previousTuesday.

It was a report on arecent vote of the Yale faculty rescinding apolicy, in effect for four years, whichprovided that any undergraduate whoreceived an "F" in a course would not havethat grade, or any evidence of his or herregistration in the course, entered on his orher transcript.The policy was enacted in the first placefor the purpose of encouraging students totake courses outside their field of con¬centration without any fear of the worst. Thepolicy was rescinded because some facultycame to feel that it was plainly dishonest,and because it had created a system inwhich students found it more desirable toreceive an "F" than a "D" or a "C."Ridiculous, of course. And of great interestto us who have never known suchgenerosity.But of much more interest was the article'snoting that, of all grades received at Yaleamong college students last Spring, 43%were "A'"s and only 1% "F'"s. We werereminded of an article elsewhere whichreported that more than 60% of Yalegraduates are graduating with honors. AtHarvard the figures are even higher.We do not have any figures on the numberof "A'"s awarded here, but it is commonlyknown to be far below 43% Many estimate itat under 20% The number of graduates withhonors has been running at about 35%Is this fair? What are the implications ofthese discrepancies for graudates of thisUniversity, whose academic records willcertainly not be interpreted with them inmind? These and other questions arecritical to all of us who may have a blot ortwo on our records and who realize that, hadwe gone anywhere else, including theprestigious Harvard and Yale, we wouldhave accumulated a grade point averagesignificantly higher.Clearly, little can be done to reverse thisdiscrimination. Perhaps the University willdo its prospective students a favor and warnthem beforehand of the trouble they ask forif they matriculate here—but we doubt it.At the very least, we suggest you clip thisarticle and send it in addition to yourtranscript when it goes to those who will,after looking at a highly arbitrary collec¬tion of letters, make the decisions thatmake your future. TootsWe like to think of ourselves as somewhatjaundiced veterans of the rock'n'roll wars,with the moss of the past decade creeping upour spines, for whatever that is worth. Therehasn't been very much that has turned ourheads, musically or otherwise, for somethree years now. So we were quite surprisedto discover, as we earlier this week, that themost jaundiced and venerable rock critic ofall, Lester Landau Christgau, was still, of allthings, going to those generally unhealthyaffairs known as rock concerts. A critic of nomean influence, L.L. C. is also somewhatrenown for his reluctance, and evendownright stubborness in fact, to commit topaper his heavy musings on popularincidents and capitol issues in rock music.We acted fast, and under threats LesterLandau Christgau sat down at histypewriter and composed the following:"December the fifth has always been arather momentous day for me. What marksthis day as significant is that it is bothCuster's birthday and St. Barbara's nameday—patron saint of the artillery.

I was to meet Toots at the Lake ShoreDrive Holiday Inn the afternoon of theconcert. Being a shy and retiring sort I wasrelieved to know that a local illuminatowould assist me in interrogating one of thepillars of reggae music. My interest inreggae, like most white Americans, hadoriginally been engendered by thesoundtrack from The Harder They Come.This potpourri of reggae, fo course, alsointroduced me with the Maytals. Unlike theother cuts on The Harder They Come, theMaytals songs—" Pressure Drop" and"Sweet and Dandy"—were infused with anabundance of concentrated energy. To alarge part, this energy could be ascribed toToots maniac approach to singing. Hisvocals are quite reminiscent of those of OtisRedding and Wilson Pickett. Toots oftenattacks a song as much as sings it."Such generalities are never conclusiveabout any singer's vocal habits, as Tootsand the Maytals first album (FunkyKingston, lips 9339) on Island recordsproved. By necessity a group's introductoryalbum must offer a balanced selection of*heir wears. Such is the thread from whichFunky Kingston is woven. First andforemost, this is a reggae album; everyselection is worked in a reggae format. Yet, the production of this album is polished withthe time tested sound from the Memphisschool of music. There is heavy usage ofhorns and female vocal harmonies on thealbum, which often serve as counter-pointsto the ubiquitous heavy set reggae beat.(Many purists feel these embellishmentsare inimical to reggae, but I find thesearguments to be as fatuous as the earlierfolk purists complaints of Dylan's pickingup an electric guitar.) Moreover, FunkyKingston offers a variegated selection ofmusic with its presentation of ballads,finger snapping up tempo songs, and, ofcourse, traditional reggae tunes. Strangelyenough, the only true anamoly on the albumis the title tract, which would have doneDyke and the Blazers proud."Armed with this dearth of knowledge Iarrived at the Holiday Inn late. For thisindiscretion—the latter—I was forced to sitin the lobby of this sleazy hotel for over anhour, pondering my reasons for being there.Fortunately though, the local illuminato hadthe good sense to arrive on time, and for histroubles he had the privilege of shoppingwith Toots in some of the local boutiques.Upon their return I was given a formalintroduction to Toots who turned out to be ashort man with the countenance of a mini-Joe Frazier. How appropriate! At this pointJeff Walker, an Island recordrepresentative covering the tour, offered usdinner. While waiting for our orders to betaken some friends of Walker asked Tootshow he felt the concert that night would go.To this Toots gave a confident answer thatthe show should be fine, but that now hewould like to eat. This was not to be. As isthe want of such places, service did notexist, and after a great wait Toots decidedthat it would be best if he went upstairs andrest a few minutes before going to theStadium. Before leaving, though, Tootswanted to allay our concern over hisunability to get something to eat. Tootsclaimed that he prefered to sing on an emptystomach, for when he is full his dancingprowess is diminished, which he displayedby vigorously bouncing in his chair."Unbelievably, the illuminato and I wereoffered a ride to the Stadium in the band'sbus. We immediately accepted. Theatmosphere was relaxed, with the bandmembers sitting back listening to a BarryWhite tape. Half-way to the Stadium thetape was changed to a recording of a liveversion of "Funky Kingston." While thesong was playing one member of the banddecided to practice some of his dance steps.As he was going through his paces visions ofJimmy Cliff, in The Harder They Come,posing for pictures to be sent to the police,came to mind. But, all good things mustcome to an end, and as we dismounted thebus I was confident that Toots and theMaytals would put on a fine performancethat night. "Obviously I was suffering an illusion:The munificence of Island records hadcaused me to forget that the Maytals weresecond on the bill to the Who. Everybody in !this west side airline hanger came to see the ^Who, not our beloved Toots. TheseAnglophile storm-trooper devotees were outin mass, eagerly awaiting the moments theywould be bombarded with Townshend'sheavy gun. This, of course, was not to saythat the masses had left their militaryhardware at home. Often during the concertI felt in danger of being lobotomized by theM- 80's which were thrown from the balconyabove me. Yes, it was your typical rock'n'roll circus, with copious amounts of boorishbehavior, dressed with the arrogance ofsuburbanites on a night out on the town. Whynot? A/a and Pa ain't here. If Toots and theMaytals could hold the attention of thiscrowd, reggae must surely be considered tohave wide popular appeal."The incongruity of a reggae band playingin front of and underneath the speakerbanks of the Who left me with theimpression of an army about to do battleagainst overwhelming odds. This is anespecially important consideration whenplaying the Stadium. Unless you have thewatts, your sound quickly becomes lost inthe endless reaches of the cavarn. In allfairness to the audience, few things aremore irritating than listening to music withwhich you are unfamiliar compounded bygreat distortion."After a terse introduction, Toots, nattilydressed, bounced onto the stage ready to dobattle with this congregation of unbeleivers.Quickly the band broke into "Pomp andPride," a fine tune off their album withmesmerizing beat. But the sound wasterribly muddled. One could not hear theorgan or the back-up vocals, and it soundedas if Toots was scat singing throughout theentire song. Truly unfortunate. Even moreso because of Toots' hard working approachto performing. The man was desperatlytrying to attract the attention of theaudience. Upon the completion of the songthere was a smattering of polite applause.The Maytals' second song was "CountryRoads"— a righteous song, according toToots. Too bad the crowd did not think so.They seemed to be sitting there in disbeliefthat a heavy metalic crowd was listening toa song written by "Old Potato-Face." Oncethis realization hit them their demeanorturned mean. But this did not stop theMaytals from giving it their best. The songwas divided into two sections, one extollingthe virtues of west Jamica, the other afrenzied instrumental break with Tootschanting "Got to get back home." Upon itscompletion the smattering of applauseturned into a few Phi'adelphia cheers.^continued on page 8)ROCKEFELLER MEMORIAL CHAPELSUNDAY • JANUARY 25 • 11 A.M.HERBERT BRONSTEINRabbi of the North Shore CongregationIsrael in Glencoe"THE CHRISTIAN-JEWISH DIALOGUE:PROBLEMS AND POSSIBILITIES"SUNDAY SEMINAR 9:45 to 10:50 A.M.Chapel UndercroftBernard O.

The layer of Greek drama in Electra issustained and is still painfully obvious inbasic plot and parallel roles, but the subtlerinfluences are never lost.All members of the Mannon dynasty have stern, unchanging countenances (like theimmobile masks of Attic tradegy), but thesenever conceal their wearer's awesomeemotions. The townspeople and minorcharacters are the intermediaries betweenus and the main action, serving the functionof a Greek chorus by interpreting andcommenting on the lives of the aristocraticMannons. The ancient priorities are herekept intact because the well-known plot isalways subordinate to the driving forces -human need, desire, and pride. The im¬mediate interaction between characters isalways stressed, and although there are nosurprises, our interest is held. Electra is nota story about the "why" of human sorrow —it is rather, about the "how."This is why the success of O'Neill'smodern Oresteia must rest upon out¬standing characterizations. The actingcannot be merely adequate, because thestory then disappears. The leading ladies rise to this challenge.Laura Esterman, as Lavinia Mannon is thecentral figure dominating each sub-play.She is her father's doting daughter, hermother' vicious competitor, cooly plotting,intensely hating, forever waiting. Ms.Easterman makes that startling transitionfrom guarded stoic to vibrant lover, andends with such powerful emotion andresignation that she transcends any possiblecliche-filled pathos.Her excellence is matched by RosemaryMurphy as Lavinia's mother, spiritualcounterpart and enemy. Christine Mannonperforms the same dynamic changes as herdaughter and, consequently, Ms. Murphy'stalents are similarly tried and are equallysuccessful. Just as Lavinia's final exit isMs. Easterman's triumph, the last scene of"The Hunted," the final exchange betweenmother, daughter and son, stands out as oneof the play's best moments. Ms. Murphyportrays the broken lover and doomedwoman with brilliant timing and over¬ powering energy.Unfortunately, not all the leading playersare able to seduce us as thoroughly asEasterman and Murphy do. Robert Murchas Adam Brant, and especially BenMoasters as Orin, have difficult exchangeswhile professing love, grieving, or raging;but their deliveries lack the concentration ofthe women. They therefore separate us fromthe emotions, that is, the plot itself, andinstead of horror, fascination or compassion,their violence evokes only a smile,sometimes even an embarassed laugh. Thisis what makes O'Neill so difficult to presentwell: if at any time the actors fail to absorbus in their worlds, we, from the outside,might call them trite and unsophisticated.Master's Orin, with his passion forChristine, need not be ridiculous (and in¬deed, Orin's "conversation" with his deadfather and his excited "War is a Joke"theory are extremely sensitive and wellexecuted), but occasionally his per¬formance falls short of the rest of the play'squality.As an MBA,you can affordto be choosy.Depend on us to give youmore of a choke.Bank of America is actively recruiting MBA's.

When it came to an end, and Toots andthe AAaytals left the stage, their departurewas greeted by a thunderous ovation ofboos. The band had been massacred, and thepatron saint of the artillery was about to behonored with a high mass. me that the band performed brilliantly in anearlier engagement at the Quiet Knight, andthat the crowd enthusiastically receivedthem. As for me, the Toots' album speaksfor itself. Few pieces of vinyl have foundtheir way onto my turntable as often asFunky Kingston. The next time I see Tootsand the AAaytals perform it will be in atheatre, I hope, with a pleasantambience."W. T. Hobson(continued from page 5)"Quickly the band broke into "FunkyKingston," but few of these kids have heardof Dyke and the Blazers. They sat there withan air of hostile indifference. Next cameToots' most widely known song, "PressureDrop." This song has an unbelievablyinfectious beat, with the driving force of aSherman tank. To spice up the song the bandbroke up the ending refrain into thecomponents of the chorus, playing the songuntil the completion of the chorus, stopping,then repeating the chorus and playing itlouder and faster than the previous time.It failed to generate excitement, and eventhough the crowd did not boo this time,neither did they applaud,"At this point Toots thought it best to takehis case to the people. Audienceparticipation numbers are always difficultfor a little known band. That night proved tobe no different. Unable to persuade theaudience of his sincere desire to entertain them. Toots decided his next move should beto spew forth veridical statements. "Reggaegot soul, got so much soul," Tootsproclaimed, but then, this audience neverlistened to WVON. As a last resort Tootsthought maybe he could appeal to theaudience's more salacious instincts. "Comeon girl; Come on boy," Toots cajoled, but itwas wasted effort, and for his attempt hewas heartily booed.To put an end to this debacle the AAaytalsended with an instrumental disco reggaesong. Toots' two back up vocalists camestage-front and worked out a few dancesteps with him. It was strange to see threeblack performers dancing a routine notdressed in shocking pink velvet suits, with'Merchant'(continued from page 1)further the exposition of the plot, theirelimination and Gratiano's subsequentassimilation of their lines caused Gratianoto lose some of the fine points of his veryimportant character.Rhonda Fields as Jessica, Shylock'sdaughter, was attractive and sympathetic,but Tom AAcKeon, as Lorenzo, her suitor andlater husband, often submitted to the "From what I've been told this scene wasre enacted before 80,000 people in Pontiac,Michigan, the following night.

The lighting was notnoticeable, either as an asset or a detrac¬tion. The production was marred by con¬siderable use of recorded music, which Iobject to in general, and used some selec¬tions, including the theme from "Master -peice Theatre," which I objected to inparticular. The building was not well heated, and I advise that you see the show ona relatively warm (!) night.This show is certainly not a "definitiveproduction" of The Merchant of Venice. Iconsider that to be an advantage, since Ifind "definitive productions" usually stiffand pretentious, and it would probably beimpossible to mount a "definitive produc¬tion" of this play that would be dramaticallysatisfying.

EllisM-F 8-5Sat. 9-1Women Committee Members Criticize Hiring PoliciesSEX DISC FROM 1Each department hasappointed a liason officer towork with Mr. Chernick’soffice and with the PersonnelDepartment. The liasonofficers also reviewdepartmental personneldecisions to make sure theyare in accordance withUniversity policies.Mr. Chernick’s office dealsdirectly with HEW’s Officeof Civil Rights. Chuck Duffy,staff person at the Chicagooffice, told the Maroon thatthe office’s most recentformal review of theUniversity’s affirmativeaction plan in 1971 or 1972 (hewas unsure of the exactdate) led to an approval ofthe plan.According to Mr.Chernick, “The staff of theOffice of Civil Rightssuggested that there is nodiscrimination in hiring atthe U of C once people are atthe stage of consideration.The University felt that thisimplied that their pool ofapplicants should bewidened and took steps tobroaden its searchprocedures.”As one means ofbroadening the applicantpool, Universitydepartments haveexperimented with theadvertisement of vacantfaculty positions. Mr.Chernick, who was unsureabout the number ofDOONESBURY departments that have triedadvertising, questioned itsdesirability as anaffirmative action policy.He cited an occasion onwhich the EnglishDepartment advertised anopening and received nearly700 responses.“It was a tremendouseffort to read and answerthese responses. I’m notsaying it shouldn’t be done,but it creates costs whichmust be borne by every partof the University. “Theproblem with affirm¬ative action is that thegovernment is hung upwith statistics and does notlook at the practices. Theyjudge not by efforts made,but by the number of peopleand various classes on theemployment roster. Thisleads to abuses.”A report prepared by theCommittee on UniversityWomen, a subcommittee ofthe University Senate whichwas released in May, 1970,provides the mostexhaustive analysis ofUniversity hiring policy as it■ effects women.Basing its conclusion onwide ranging statisticalsurveys and numerouspersonal interviews, thecommittee stated that “withrespect to women on theregular teaching faculty, theproblem is that there are sofew of them.’’ Thecommittee expressedparticular concern for “the absence of faculty women incertain areas of theUniversity where thepotential pools containsubstantial proportions ofwomen.”As a final recommend¬ation, the committeesuggested that “depart¬ments and schools reviewrecruitment proceduresto determine whether, infact, they are exploringthe total pool of excel¬lence, particularly withregard to women.”The University Committeeon Women, a groupconsisting of six faculty andthree students, is apermanent outgrowth of the1970 report.Interviews with presentand former members of thepermanent Committeeelicited varying evaluationsof University hiring policies.Janice Spofford, AssociateProfessor in the Departmentof Biology and Chairpersonof the Committee, gave theadministration a favorableassessment.“I think the administrationis doing all it can. Mr.Chernick is sincere andworks hard at promotingaffirmative action. Thepercentage of women amongthe new faculty issubstantially greater thanthe percentage of womenalready on the faculty,” shesaid.An important Committeefunction cited by Ms.Spofford is the surveillance of the departments “withregard to recruitmentprocedures, number ofpositions, and number ofwomen seriously consideredfor positions.” She addedthat “We intend to work withthose branches which havethe greatest difficulty infinding women candidates.”Ms. Spofford stressed thatthe committee isunanimously againstrecruitment policies whichwould endanger themaintenance of adistinguished faculty at theUniversity.“Only if the women hiredare mutually beneficial willthey be maintained on along-term basis. I don’t thinkHEW will be as demandingtwenty years from now. Wemust build something selfmaintaining.”One member of theCommittee offered a morecritical appraisal of theUniversity’s affirmativeaction policy.“I have a feeling there’snot enough force behindthose governmentguidelines, and thisuniversity, like a lot ofothers, will probably not loseits contract despite the factthat its affirmative actionmeasures are weak.”The Committee memberpointed to the HistoryDepartment as an exampleof sex bias in faculty hiring.There is only one woman inthe department, which has aby Garry Trudeau total faculty of 42.The committee membercited a survey, contained inthe 1970 Committee report,which found that of the Ph. Ddegrees earned in history atthe top ten universitiesbetween 1962 and 1967, 111out of 900, slightly overtwelve per cent, weregranted to women. Morerecent surveys report that14.5 per cent of the historyPh. D’s granted went towomen between 1969 and1972, and 22.1 per centbetween 1972 and 1975.Janel Mueller, AssociateProfessor in the Departmentof English and formermember of the Committee,presented an equally criticalpoint of view.“It seems to me that morecould be done and thereforeought to be done,” Ms.Mueller said. “For example,a large number of highlycompetent graduatestudents in art history arewomen, we have one womanfaculty member in our arthistory department.”Ms. Mueller emphasizedthe importance of havingtenured women at theUniversity take an interestin the hiring policies of theirown departments.“Strategic encouragementbrought to bear throughdepartment procedures canbe effective.”She said that theaffirmative action reportspublished in the UniversityRecord do not easily allowconcerned faculty to knowthe crucial facts about thecharacter of facultyappointments.“In the affirmative actionreports, faculty and staffappointments are oftenreported together,department by department,ina wway that one cannotdistinguish between ladderand non-ladderappointments. Because thisis done, one cannot judge whether a woman currentlyteaching at the Universityhas a real possibility for atenured future with thisinstitution."Ms. Mueller stressed thataction to provide for moretenured women faculty atChicago must be taken now.“Analysts of theeducational scene predictthat enrollment levels willcontinue decreasing atAmerican colleges andstabilize at a substantiallyreduced level in the 1980’s.Correspondingly, thenumber of faculty willstabilize at a reduced level.Unless we plan for morewomen on our faculty now, itwill not happen later.”In the Law School, the LawWomen’s Caucus hasactively lobbied for thehiring of women faculty. Atpresent, there are no womenat the Law School with aregular teaching position.One Caucus membersummarized the frustrationfelt by members of thegroup.“Women law studentswere disappointed when SoiaMentschikoff left the faculty.We feel the lack of aneffective role model.”Several members of theCaucus recently met withLaw School Dean NorvalMorris, giving him a list ofabout thirty women theyjudged worthy ofinvestigation by the LawSchool’s appointmentcommittee. Members of theCaucus found their contactwith the Dean productiveand hope to have a woman onthe faculty by next yearCaucus member PatSlovak suggested that thereis no shortage of womenqualified for the Chicagofaculty.. “There are plentyof qualified women, manyare snatched up by other lawschools. Most of the majorlaw schools have women ontheir faculty,” she said.A FURTHERGOAL OF MINE6THESPEEPYximplementa-: VON OF NOR¬'S MALIZAWN.

He illustratedhis point by referring tocharts indicating the highermortality and morbitityrates found in black ghettosin comparison to those inpoor white communities inChicago. “These figures,”Dr. Freedman asserted,“are just a sample of thedeprivation found in blackcommunities.”Dr. Freedman challengedhis audience with twochoices concerning violencein Chicago. “Either we canbe observers or we canparticipate in solving theproblem of escalating crimeby volunteering our time andenergy to eliminating socialinjustice.”Detective Padar discussed the police department’sdependence upon thecooperation of citizens insolving criminal cases.“People are under themisconception that policedetectives have as manyhours as Kojak to spend oncases and our laboratoryfacilities are identical tothose on Hawaii Five-O,” hesaid. According to Mr.Padar, nothing could befarther from the truth.Almost all criminalinvestigations depend oncitizens who volunteerinformation. The peoplethemselves have a great dealof control over the quality oflaw enforcement theyreceive, he saidMr. Padar, in agreementwith Mr Zimring, concludedthat gun control legislationand enforcement are neededbefore crime can bethwartedThe Chicago Maroon — Friday, January 23 -13» Emilie Townes (41) and Vadis Cothran crowd in a DuPageplayer.

DES,which stimulatesprogesterone production,was heralded as a miracledrug.However, Dr. W. J. Diek-man from the University ofChicago concluded in 1959that there was no statisticalevidence that DES reducedthe complication ofpregnancy. The Universitywas one of six institutionsthat conducted studies onDES. In spite of these studieschallenging its effectiveness,many obstetricianscontinued to regardinexpensive DES as valuabletherapy until the 1971warning by the FDA.14 - The Chicago Maroon — Another physician atBillings, Dr. Marluce Bibbo,is currently studying thelevel of risk in the children ofwomen who took the drug inthe fifties.Although abnormalitieshave been found in both menand women, no case ofcancer has yet surfacedin the Billings study. Pa¬tients in other parts of thecountry, however, havedisplayed the symptoms ofcancer, and others with laterstages of development of thedisease have died. For thisreason, doctors at Billingsstress that it is of the utmostimportance to locatepatients.In the last 20 years, anestimated five hundredthousand to two millionpregnant women across theUS unwittingly took DES.Attempts to locate thesewomen have proved difficultbecause patients havemoved, doctor’s recordshave been misplaced, andbecause doctors subject topossible malpractice suitshave been reluctant to comeforward.DES is not naturallydestroyed by the body, andmust be excreted duringeither menstruation or thebirth of a child. The drugenters through the mother’sbody to the fetus and causeschanges in the embryonicvaginal tissue. After twentyyears this may result incancer.riday, January 23 Cager sBeatNorth ParkBy Frank MerriwellUsing good defense, fineshooting and a solid benchthe women’s basketballteam ran their unblemishedseason record to five gamesTuesday, oeating NorthPark College, 72-60.From the opening jumpthe game was close. Thehalftime score saw theMaroons in front by only fivepoints, 37-32. But in thesecond half North Park,which had started the gamewith a full court press, beganto grow weary. The Maroonguards picked up somekeysteals and the game wasbroken open. The Chicagoteam, which had been usingsubstitutes all the waythrough, ran the tiredVikings off the court.First year Dudley Scholar Tami Pfantz paid the firstinstallment on herscholarship, dumping in agame high 22 points.Fourteen of these came inthe second half and HelenHarrison also contributed tothe second half breakaway,and aided the total effort bysending through 18 points.From the openingthe game was close. jumpTonight, however, theMaroons have their work cutout for them as they take onthe University of Illinois.The Illini have two stars,5’11” center Betty Andersonand 5’9” forward BeckyBeach who are going to haveto be contained if theChicago team expects toextend its unbeaten string.The game will be played atIda Noyes Hall at 7:00 pm.Full Court Press UC VARSITY CALENDERBasketball:Maroons 72 North Park 60UPCOMING EVENTSBasketball:UC Men at Lawrence University, Fri.

Admittedly thiswas a foolish venture tobegin with, but we wereexpecting an entry so perfectthat it would automaticallyrecommend itself. Thisdidn’t happen, and thussomething had to be chosenon the sheer basis of someterribly vague estheticcriteria. The more thoughtthat went into this, the moreit became obvious thatsomething staid would bestserve the purposes. In fact, the name Sports Column wasstrongly suggested in anentry from anadministration officiel. Buthaving announced thecontest in the first place, itseemed wrong to pick suchan obvious name that couldhave been thought of before,and saving everyone thetrouble.The winning choice, yousee, sports fans, was one ofthe better choices obviouslybut it had a problem in that itseemed to indicate just onesport. As it turns outhowever, nothing is perfect.The winner was a Shoreland resident by the name ofJudith Reel; her prize will beawarded sometime nextweek. We thank you all forparticipating and we will tryto keep our minds on sportsfrom now on.There was more tointramurals this week thanjust basketball; the men’sdoubles table tennischampionships weredecided. A twosome fromHenderson, Davjd Sagen andPaul Frier, took theUndergrad residencedivision last week and beatthe Independent divisionchamps Bill Brent and Wayne Tack, playing for theNew MH Revue. But age andexperience triumphed againas the Divisional champsJames Wei and Dueong Vufrom the Graduate School ofBusiness beat Sagen andFrier to take the All-University Title.This week its all over butthe shooting in Riflery andthe Hand ball competition isalso commencing.
