$375 tuition hike expected MondayThe executive committee of theBoard of Trustees is expected tovote Monday to increase Collegeand graduate tuition by $375 nextyear, The Maroon has learned.The increase will be $450 in theprofessional schools, sources said.The 10 percent rise representsthe largest total increase and alsothe largest percentage increase inthe University’s history. Lastyear’s increase was the largest todate.In addition, the increase is fourpercent greater than the nationalcost of living increase. 3.5 percentgreater than the nationaleducation cost index, and 2.5percent greater than last year’sincrease in the University’s totaloperating expenditures.Financial aid is expected toincrease by more than five percentto help offset the unprecedentedrise, sources in the administrationdisclosed.The tuition increase has not yetbeen voted into effect, but thedeans and vice-presidents metwithin the last two weeks torecommend the $125 per quarterincrease.Although there has been no of¬ficial announcement, a d-ministrators had admitted earlythis week that there would be anincrease for the College “between$100 and $150 a quarter,” but would not make an official announcementuntil after the trustee committeemeeting Monday. The trustees willreview the University budget inaddition to voting on tuition andcould defer the decision until ageneral trustee meeting Thursday.Administrators have beenweighing for months themagnitude of the tuition increasethis year, though most admittedthat the possibility of foregoing ahike had been dismissed early inthe deliberations.The decision to implement theincreases was made by thedivisional deans, the deans of thegraduate and professional schools,and the University vice-presidentsand then recommended to thetrustees, who traditionally act as arubber-stamp, one administrationsource said.There was reportedly a split overwhether to increase College tuition$100 or $150 per quarter and the$125 increase represents a com¬promise.Protest last yearThe dean’s budget committee,which has traditionally issuedwritten recommendations to thepresident, was disbanded this yearin order to include the divisionaldeans in the process.Last year’s report of the budgetcommittee was a major issue ofstudent protest. The student- organized Speakout Coalitioncalled for disclosure of the reportand its explanatory appendices butno explanation of the tuition in¬crease was ever made public.This year there will be no writtenreport detailing the reasons for theincrease.Financial resourcesThe University has three sourcesof income: earnings on en¬dowment; gifts including federalgrants; and tuition. Tuition is theonly flexible source of income andthus may be increased to offsetproblems in other areas. It is alsoone of few financial areas overwhich the University has totalcontrol, independent of thenational economic climate.A decline in income from en¬dowment is a major factor in thetuition increase, sources said. Theailing economy reduced en¬dowment earnings for the past twoyears in real dollars.This year’s budget differs fromthose of the past several years inthat past tuition increases havetended to mirror increasing coststo the University. Thus tuition hasnot increased in “real” dollars,though financial aid has not in¬creased either. This year the in¬crease is substantially above thecost of living index but increasedfinancial aid may offset some ofthat increase. Financial aid did not increasesignificantly along with tuitionuntil last year.Other schoolsAnother change expected thisyear is in the structure of tuitioncharges. There are presently sixtuition categories; the College;graduate divisions; the Pritzker School of Medicine, the lawschool; the business school; andthe schools of divinity, education,library science, and social serviceadministration.One source said that there maybe additional tuition dif¬ferentiations next year.Tuition to 3Watchful eyeUnderutilized committeeguards women’s rightsBy Eric Von der PortenThe formation of the Com¬mittee on University Women inMay 1969 marked the first timethe* University seriously in¬vestigated the status of womenfaculty and students. Butrecently, the committee hasreached a hiatus, largely becauseother groups are now responsiblefor handling many of the issueson which the committeeoriginally concentrated.Nancy Helmbold, an associateprofessor of classics, has beenchairman of the committee sincelast fall and has the responsibilityto rejuvenate the ailing group.Her immediate objective is torecruit student members to thecommittee.Five faculty members — allwomen — currently serve on thecommittee. It normally com¬prises a coed group of six facultymembers and three students.Status of womenThe status of women at theUniversity became a major issuein the late 1960’s when studentscharged the administration with: sex discrimination in the decision1 not to grant tenure to the con¬troversial assistant professorMarlene Dixon. A committeeheaded by the associate professorof history Hanna Gray was for¬med to investigate those chargesand eventually confirmed thedismissal.Biology associate professorJanice Spofford, a member andformer chairman of the com Former Committee on UniversityWomen chairman Janice Spof¬ford: “It would not be amiss tolook into the possibility ofdiscrimination.”(Photo by Jeanne Dufort)mittee, said it was formed chieflyas a result of the Gray committeeinvestigations.“Since the issue had beenraised,” Spofford said, theCommittee of the Council of theUniversity Senate decided that“it would not be amiss to look intothe possibility ofdiscrimination.”Women to 3 UC cracks down on defaulters;loan delinquency study initiatedBy Lynn SaltzmanWorried by rising delinquencyand default on student loans, tfteUniversity is taking several stepsto curb this trend.Default and delinquency rateshave doubled in the past two years.Delinquency is currently at 27.4percent forall student loans, whilethe default rate (over 120 daysdelinquent) is at 8 per cent.As a result of these alarmingfigures, the U.S. Office ofEducation has informed theUniversity that unless these ratesare reduced, their annual Octoberlending authority renewal “willcome to question.”“One ot tne steps being taken toreduce delinquency among studentdebtors is to enforce the loan exitinterview.” said Richard Royse.assistant dean of students.Exit interviews, which takeplace just before graduation, serveto clarifv and stress the student’srepayment obligations. The loanoffice has up until now been laxabout exn interviews and someinterviews were even conducted bymail through form letters.But now. no student with a loanmay graduate or have his tran¬scripts sent to other institutionsunless he attends a loan exit in¬terview.“We hope that the exit interviewwill reduce delinquency by makingstudents more aware of theirobligations to repay loans.” Roysesaitf“The student loan office is re¬examining its office procedures toinsure that enough emphasis isplaced upon the students’ obligations to repay loans,” headdedConducting a surveyThe University is also preparingto conduct^ study on delinquentstudents. Student loan delinquencyhas become a nation wide problem,but delinquency studies at otheruniversities have revealed fewconsistent characteristics amongdeliquent students.But, studies have found thatdelinquency usually occurs withthe first few loan payments, whilefewer loans are in arrears duringthe middle payments.According to Royse. this findingmakes exit interviews vital toAssistant dean of studentsRichard Royse is studying waysto help curtail skyrocketingdefault and delinquency rates onstudent loans(Photo by Gwen Cates) stress loan obligations at the outsetof repayment, when this emphasisis needed most.Agency problemsReviewing problems withcollection agencies may alsoreduce the currently skyrocketingrates, said Royse. Collection forthe Federally* Insured StudentLoan (FISL) program is handledby the Academic Financial ServiceAssociation (AFSA).v AFSA isrequired to try to contact alldelinquent students but Royse saidthat “the University has littlecontrol over AFSA’s collectionprocedures because the firm isbased in Los Angeles.”Another loan program thatstudents use heavily, the NationalDirect Student Loan (NDSL)program handles collectionthrough the Chicago-basedAmerican National BankAssociation (ANBA>, which sendsall delinquency notices through theUniversity.“The Universitv has had moresuccess in controlling delinquencyin the NSDL program.” saidRoyse. The success nas been at¬tributed in Dart to the University’sconnection to the collectionprocess.Sallie MaeSome of the University’s loansare sold to. and then collected by,agencies of the Student LoanMarketing Association (SallieMae). Some students said that thecold impersonality of theseagencies may cause delinquency.Loans to 3Friends of the Symphony presentMUSIC FROM MdRLBOROChamber music of Mozart, Prokofiev and DvorakSaturday.

It could investigate and makerecommendations to the Committee of theCouncil of the University Senate, but wasendowed with no actual authority to act.Little action resulted from the Neugartenreport, but the Senate determined that thecommittee should be appointed on a per¬manent basis. Erica Reiner, a professor ofNear Eastern languages, was appointedchairman of the new standing committeeDirect complaintsIn its first few years, the committeecontinued to investigate and survey anumber of problems raised by theNeugarten committee. But as women'srights became a larger issue, the committeehas seen some of its duties transferred tonew University officesSpofford noted that there are now at leastthree people who are directly responsiblefor answering complaints about the status ofwomen on campus; .lack Ohringer, studentombudsman; Anita Sandke, affirmativeaction grievance officer for students; andMargaret Fallers, University affirmativeaction officerThe affirmative action office underFallers is particularly prepared to reviewrecruitment, hiring, and promotion ofwomen all issues formerly dealt with bythe committeeAs a result, "the committee hasn’t had a been counted as present even though hehadn’t answered when called.

Otherstudents have experienced mix-ups andcommunication problems with collectionagency comDuters. ,According to dean of students ( harlesO’Connell, the percentage of Universitystudents borrowing money is also risingfast. Nearly half of the University’s studentsare dependent on loans. With delinquency onthe rise, Royse is concerned about this trendand wistfully said that the loan office would"love to be out of business.”But in the meantime, administrators hopethe upcoming survey and enforced exitinterviews will help identify and reducedefault and delinquency among Universitystudents.CorrectionIn Tuesday’s article on MAB, The Maroonincorrectly quoted Tony Mayo as saying hequit the MAB Board for "lack of interest.”great deal to keep it busy the last fewyears,” said Spofford. But, she added,* "Ithink it’s important for the University thatthe committee exists.”The committee sponsors the annualorientation week luncheon for enteringwomen students and continues to discussand act on issues throughout the year.Problems with women’s athletic facilities inBartlett Gym and with the Universitygynecology clinic and questions concerningthe listing of marital status in the Universitydirectory are a few7 of the issues in¬vestigated by the committee in the past fewyears.Several recommendations have beenmade on these issues but the committee hasalso used informal channels to effectchanges without moving through normalbureaucratic channels.In the case of the gynecology clinic, thecommittee made no formal recom¬mendations. but, according to Spofford,people who were associated with thecommittee and who knew the people incharge of the clinic "stuck in their tw o centsin the appropriate places.”Spofford believes that this kind of in¬formal approach can be even more effectivethan working through formal grievancechannelsIt is in this sense that having both facultymembers and students on the committeecan be useful. Both groups can contributetheir perspectives and their resources to theproblems at hand, said HelmboldNo grandiose plansCurrently, chairman Helmbold says thatthe committee has "no specific charge.”She wants the committee to gain strengthbut added, "I don’t have all sorts of gran¬diose plans.”Spofford said that the committee willlikely begin to take new directions and tobecome more active once again. "There’salways a new generation of faculty andstudents who will work on these issues andthat is undoubtably going to lead to arevival,” she saidAny student male or female - in¬terested in serving on the committee shouldprepare a statement of interest andqualifications and should contact Helmbold CalendarFridayCommuter Club: meeting, 12 30-1:30 pm,Hutchinson Commons.Calvert House: Mass and Blessing of theThroats, 12 and 5 pm; Mass and CommunalAnointing of the Sick, 7 pm; Mardi GrasParty, 8:30 pm, Calvert House.Center for Middle Eastern Studies: Faculty-student Luncheon, 12:15 pm, Ida Noyes;Arabic Circle, "Historical Figures in ModemArabic Literature,” Salih Altoma, 3 30 pm,Pick 218 (discussions in Arabic); ParsainSociety, "An Introduction to the History andCulture of Rezaiyeh,” Abazar Sepehri, 3:30pm, Harper 135, (discussions in Persian);Bizden Size, "The Influence of Ataturkism onContemporary Turkish Politics,” MetinHeper, 3:30 pm, Cobb 430 (discussions inTurkish).Department of Economics: "Big Business;the Federal Government, and the Creation ofthe Welfare State; The Political Economy of20th Century Reform,” Kim McQuaid.

In the past; while tuition increases havebeen both steady and shrouded in secrecy, theyhave at least kept pace with the annual cost ofliving increase ana the increase in the cost ofUniversity operations. But, for the first time,the expected 1978-1979 jump of $375 in theCollege and $450 in the professional schoolsplaces tuition at least 2 percent above the“normal” increase.It is not difficult to determine the Univer¬sity’s public justification for the 10 percentincrease, but their real financial reasons haveremained a secret to students, who are notpermitted to see the overall budget picture. Forthe second year in a row tuition nas been raisedby an unprecedented amount, and for thesecond year in a row the University has madethat decision without consulting students oreven informing them of the process, how thebudget is made up, and how close to $35 millionin tuition and fees is being spent.Now the administration is trying to tell usthat we should stand and ignore the Univer¬sity’s increased expenses while we are forced topay through tuition for those increased costswithout knowing why.This tuition increase is outrageous enough asit stands alone, unjustified by the ad¬ministration. But coupled with the ad¬ministration’s outright refusal to involvestudents in the budget-making process, we feeldoubly outraged and .compelled to demand thatthe trustees postpone their Monday vote onemonth so that they may be given time to explainthe inflated increase to student represen¬tatives.Last year’s Speakout Coalition succeeded onsome points, but was not given any kind ofdetailed explanation of University spending.We now demand, again, that the Universityhold open hearings on the budget within thenext month to disclose to students why theyshould pick up so much of the University’s tab.Perhaps the University is now reversing itsposition ahd administrators have decided thattuition should now be competitive with otherfirst-rate private Universities. Administratorshave assured The Maroon that this is not theirplan, and that tuition here is still relativelylower than at other universities, particularly atthe Ivy League schools. But they are effectivelycreating a situation where our tuition pricesmany students out of the Chicago, or privateschool, market, and where our tuition, par¬ticularly when coupled with room and boardcosts, now comes close to most other privateuniversities and colleges.The most positive conclusion we could drawis that the University will boost financial aidnext year significantly and in part offset thetuition rise. The most negative conclusionwould of course, be that we were once againgetting shafted while the administration andtrustees decide the students’ financial fatewithout even explaining the University’seconomic morass to one of their greatestsupporters.The Chicago MaroonEditor: JonMeyersohnNews Editor: Abbe FletmanFeatures Editor: Karen HellerSports Editor: R W RohdeF%oto Editor: Jeanne DufortAssociate Editors: Nancy Crilly, Eric Von der PortenProduction: Judith Franklin, Rich GoldsteinLiterary Editors: Peter Eng, George Spigot4 — The Chicago Maroon — Friday, February 3,1978 Letters to the EditorDouble standard? business school and economics act as it has, although Secietarydepartment as this can compile a Dunham’s statement has made itportfolio that matches the return of more difficult to do so.

Film directorFrank Capra came to campus to talk, an¬swer questions, and shoot the breeze. Caprawould best describe himself as a Hollywoodmovie maker; not an auteur or an artist.His manner reflected this attitude. AlthoughCapra is not a name-dropper, he often gavevery personal, and almost always positiveaccounts of various actors he has work with.His speech (and his autobiography, TheName Above the Title) is filled with anec¬dotes.Frank Capra was born near Palermo,Sicily in 1898. When he was three years old,his family moved to Southern California. In1915, he entered Cal Tech with the intentionof becoming a chemical engineer. He helpedpay for his education by waiting on tablesand running a student laundry; jobs thatproved so profitable that he was able to sendmoney home to his mother and six siblings.After graduation, he enlisted in the Armyand taught math to artillery men at FortScott in San Francisco. Afterwards hedrifted, holding several odd jobs, until 1924when he went to work for Walter Montaguewho planned to "picturize" poems, using anabandoned gym for a studio. Capra's firstfilm, "Fultah Fisher's Boarding House",based on a Kipling work, cost $1,700 to makeand was sold to Pathe for $3,500.Capra moved to Hollywood and foundwork as a gag man for Hal Roach's OurGang comedies. Half a year later he joinedMack Sennett in a similar capacity. Therehe wrote gags for 23 films starring HarryLangdon. Capra is credited with writing thescripts for three of these films. In 1926,Langdon left Sennett for First National andtook Capra with him as his writer anddirector. This collaboration lasted for threefilms, the most notable of which is "TheStrong Man".Fired by Langdon, who chose to direct hisown pictures, Capra went to New York andfilmed for "The Love of Mike", a com¬mercially unsuccessful film starringBroadway actress Claudette Colbert. Af¬terwards he returned to Hollywood, workedfor a short while with Sennett, and then, in1927, was hired by Columbia. Capra madefive films for $1,500 each before "Submarine" (1928), his first film with sound(sound effects and a little dialogue) whichwas commercially successful. Capra made Capra's "Lost Horizon"three films in 1929, all with sound. In 1930, JoSwerling was brought in to write thescreenplay for "Ladies of Leisure". TheCapra-Swerling collaboration lasted for fivefilms including "The Miracle Woman"(which Capra remade in 1961 with BetteDavis as "Pocketful of Miracles") and"Platinum Blonde" which featured JeanHarlow and helped establish her as a star.In 1933, Robert Riskin replaced Swerlingas Capra's scenarist. This partnershipwhich lasted until 1934 produced "Lady for aDay", "It Happened One Night","Broadway Bill", "Mr. Deeds Comes toTown", "You Can't Take it With You", and"Lost Horizon".These efforts were rewarded with 28Oscar nominations and 10 awards (in¬cluding 3 for best director and 2 for bestpicture). It also helped transform Columbiafrom a small, fledgling operation into amajor studio.Capra left Columbia in 1938 after thecompletion of "Mr. Smith Comes to Washington". A major proponent ofdirectorial (as opposed to studio) control ofa film, he encountered far too many dif¬ficulties dealing with Columbia chief, HarryCohn, one of the most notorious 'bosses' inthe industry. "One man, one film" becamehis trademark. He believed only one mancould ultimately control a film. Although agroup ot people make a film, only one mancan have final say and that man had to bethe director. Capra founded a productioncompany which bore his name. After hefinished a film, he distributed it throughvarious major studios. "Meet John Doe"(1941) and "Arsenic and Old Lace" (1944)through Warner Brothers; "It's A Won¬derful Life" (1946) through RKO; "State ofthe Union" (1948) through MGM; "HereComes the Groom" (1951) throughParamount; and "A Hole in the Head"(1959) and "Pocketful of Miracles" (1961)through United Artists.Of Capra's feature films, only two, "TheBitter Tea of General Yen" and "The Miracle Woman" proved commerciallyunsuccessful. In a seminar discussion twoFridays ago, Capra commented that theonly reason why these films had lost moneywas that they were banned in the UnitedKingdom; the first for a hint of misogyny,the second for religious irreverance.Capra also made several hour-longdocumentaries. In 1942 he went to work forthe War Department (later the ArmyPictorial Service) for which he directed orsupervised the seven-part Why We Fightseries and eight other films. Between1954-1958, he directed, wrote (two with thehelp of Jonathan Latimer), and producedfour one-hour television specials on sciencefor Bell Telephone.In 1941 Lewis Jacob wrote "Frank Caprais one of the rare directors in Hollywoodwhose name appears above those of hisstars." In 1971 Capra wrote hisautobiography whose title, "The NameAbove the Title", derives in part fromJacob's comment.continued on page 6James Stewart in Capra's "Mr. Smith"continued from page 5On Thursday evening, Capra answered questions afterthe showing of “It's A Wonderful Life”, one of his twofinest films (along with Mr. Deeds) and Capra's personalfavorite. The director received a standing ovation whenhe entered the room. When asked about what he thought ofrecent films and directors, he responded, "I think we havea great group of directors working today. Perhaps thegreatest. Spielberg, Lukas, Coppola, Altman... wonderfuldirectors.” When asked if he thought film school wasnecessary in order to become a successful director, Capragave a long, rambling answer (which he is prone to do,Often ending up with an answer which doesn't respond tothe original question but is still interesting and in¬formative). He believed that since all the directors he hadmentioned had gone to film school it was a probably agood idea.Thursday and Friday evenings and at the Friday af¬ternoon seminar, Capra expressed certain disatisfactionwith current film. He feels there is far too much por¬nography ("although I have nothing against sex, it's awonderful thing”), violence and obscenities. Capra said"Who ever heard a grandfather say 'son-of a-bitch?" (Anironic comment as Capra himself is a grandfather).Capra's view on violence is a little clearer. He describeshimself as "a complete pacifist,” even though he ex¬pressed admiration for Sam Peckinpak, undoubtedly oneof America's most violent directors. Asked at the semin¬ar why he had never made a "man's picture," i.e. a wes¬tern or a war film, he said: ”1 always wanted to makea Western. Always. But I worked at a small studio(Columbia) which didn't own a horse. As for a war film, Ihad enough war for everyone."At all three meetings, Capra spoke at length about themoral principles which characterize his films. Onestudent commented: "Mr. Capra you give us this in¬credible story, coated with sugar and a heavy dose ofmorality... I mean it's corn (Capra calls it 'Capra-corn')and you make us swallow it and believe it.” After a fewhours with the director, it became apparent that thereason why we believe in all these ideals is because Capradoes. To convey this in his films, Capra demanded"natural acting: it all had to be happening now, in thepresent tense.” His idealism is coated not with sugar butcomedy and some healthy sarcasm (there is at least onecynical character, usually the heroine, in every Capra film). In his films and in person, Capra has that rareability to be sarcastic and idealistic at the same time.Capra spent most of his time here telling stories andanecdotes. At the seminar, he spoke about how ClarkGable, under contract at MGAA, was sent to Columbia andassigned to "It Happened One Night" as a form of punish¬ment and to teach him some discipline. After the film wasfinished, Colbert was extremely embarassed and sworeshe had made the worst picture of her career. Both actorswon Academy awards and it is probably Colbert's bestperformance. After the showing of "Lost Horizon" onFriday, Capra told how, at numerous shows, theaudiences were displeased with the original cut. Hissolution was to throw out the first two reels and use the original version's middle as the new film's beginning.After receiving great praise for the second version, Capraburned the negatives and the only prints of the originalfirst two reels.These kind of stories aren't the weighty stuff of whichformal film study is made, but it is the beginning of a goodeducation in film, Capra is the first established filmdirector to visit this campus in at least four years. Lastyear the University hired a professor of film studies. Lastweek, Doc films had a Chicago premiere of a nonJapanese film. Perhaps the day will come in the not-too-distant future when students here cannot only see im¬portant films but also discuss them with learnedhistorians, critics, and the men who made the movies.ROCKEFELLER MEMORIAL CHAPEL5850 South Woodlawn AvenueSUNDAY • FEBRUARY 5, 19789 A.M.A SERVICE OF HOLY COMMUNIONCo-sponsored by the Episcopal Church CouncilCelebrant: The Reverend Donald Judson11 A.M,SPECIAL ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION WITHCHICAGO SINAI CONGREGATIONRABBI LOU SILBERMANThe Naomi Shenstone Donnelley Visiting Professor"A JUBILEE OF LIBERATION”5 P.M.CANDLEMASCo-sponsored by Calver* HouseGOLD CITY INNgiven * * * *by the MAROON: From 11:30 a.m. ;to 9:00 p.m. •"A Gold Mine Of Good Food" =■ Student Discount: :10% for table service EZ 5% for take home ■E "Hyde Park’s Best Cantonese Foodj 5228 Harper 493-2559 j^ (Near Harper Court) ■E Eat more for less.: (Try our convenient take-out orders.) ;“ m» z- z: : MEL BROOKSabastamag RON CAREY HOWARD MORRISRON CLARK - RUDY DeLUCA - BARRY LEVINSONColoi by HUM® MM AH Ad PAPERBACKI MUSIC FROM “HIfin ANXIETT AttlLABlf ON ELEKTRA/ASYLUM RECOMS l WEs]Pb NKRTAl GttMH SRKSTEI*mr mat mmMrtmM feme£ t*7i 7«TH crtrruwY ro»STARTS FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 3Check your local newspaper for theatre listingThe Grey City. JournalArtThe printed brushstrokeBy Naomi GilmanIN RELATION TO PROBABLE USE:1. an artist may construct the work2. the work may be tabricated3. the work need not be builtEACH BEING EQUAL AND CONSISTENTWITH THE INTENTOF THE ARTISTTHE DECISION AS TO CONDITION RESTSWITHTHE RECEIVER UPON THE OCCASIONOF RECEIVERSHIPThis codicil serves as a premise tor every presentationot the works ot Lawrence Weiner, who is now having histirst one-man show in Chicago. Weiner's statements(called propositions) are on view at The RenaissanceSociety, where his newest book/catalog is also available.Ot the many artists who have used language as amedium for presenting visual art, Weiner has maintainedthe closest tie with conventional painting and sculpture.The fact that the artist does not find it necessary to con¬struct physical objects does not detract from his concernfor materials and their effect on both the artist and theviewer. Although Lawrence Weiner has, in the past,worked with Joseph Kosuth and the Art-Language group,he is now careful to point out that his work is notphilosophy or criticism. When he writes or talks aboutaesthetics, he steps into the role of art philosopher, or arthistorian; the work in the present exhibition is to be seenas art, and not as an extension of any other discipline.There is a certain ambiguity in the word 'art' which canmean the visual arts, or a broader range of activitiesincluding architecture, music, literature, theater anddance. The context for Lawrence Weiner's work is 'art' inthe former sense: his works are included in artexhibitions, reviewed in art magazines and purchased byart collectors. His books are produced and sold by com¬mercial art galleries. More important, the content of hiswork refers to what is understood as painting andsculpture within this context.This is most easily seen in the first work one encounterson entering the gallery (catalog no. 2):ONE QUART EXTERIOR GREEN INDUSTRIALENAMEL THROWN ON A BRICK WALLThe visual, painterly references here are un¬mistakable; we are given precise colors and textures andan indication of scale. The mental image received by mostviewers is vivid, and can be dealt with or thought about asif the green-splashed bricks stood in the place of the wordson the white gallery wall. Why then, does Weiner not showus a painted brick wall? The difference between the abovenotation and an actual brick wall with paint thrown on it isone of specificity. A physical construction can exist onlyin one place at one time, whereas the verbal notation,which is not identified with the specifics on one particularexecution has an infinite number of possible visualations.The words given indicates the artist's intended contentwithout limiting the work to one physical appearance.Friday, February 8,1978 Of course we bring our own associations to any work ofart. The idea ot paint being thrown against a flat surfacesuggests the abstract expressionist painters who workedin just this manner. Jackson Pollock, who attempted to letchance and spontaneity determine the appearance of hispaintings, was always left with a particular canvascovered with paint in a specific way. The very act ofdeciding to paint a picture destroyed the freedom theimage was supposed to convey, since spontaneity can notbe intentional. Lawrence Weiner's work leaves the viewerfree to visualize the gesture, with all its implications, aswell as an unlimited number of end results.This does not mean that Weiner is opposed to thephysical execution of his art ideas. He has, in fact, onseveral occasions thrown one quart of exterior greenindustrial enamel onto a brick wall at the request of theowner. His point is to emphasize that it is the content ofthe idea that constitutes a work of art and not the ap¬pearance taken on by any particular execution of thatidea. This is why Weiner's basic theorem (stated at thebeginning of this article as well as on the cover of thecatalog and on a prominent wall in the gallery) is centralto all his work. Whether or not the idea proposed in thepiece is carried out in physical form, either by the artist orby someone else, is unimportant to the viewer's un¬derstanding of the artist's intent. Language is as simpleand direct a means as any for communicating possiblemanipulations of the physical world, and any meaningthese might have for a viewer will exist whether or not anartifact is made from the idea.Weiner insists that his propositions maintain a materialconnection with the real world; it is the interaction ofmaterials that he wants the viewer to focus on in his work,and not the relationships of words. Only in the descriptionof physical materials can an art content be suggested andhave some meaning for the viewer within the context ofvisual art. This means that Weiner's work can not be readas poetry—a difficult task in any case, due to hisdeliberate disuse of literary conventions.The more recent works in this exhibition, however, donot name particular things for the viewer to manipulatementally. In (catalog no. 1)BROKEN OFFfor example, no subject is given, though some materialobject is required to complete the thought and make senseof the proposition Here the viewer is made even moreaware of the physical nature of Weiner's intentions Anynumber of nouns present themselves as objects that couldbe broken off, each bearing its own associations andpossible visualizations. By leaving the object out of theproposition, Weiner calls attention to the necessity formaterials in statements of visual art, and draws theviewer into the creative process of selectionIn a work made expressly for this exhibition in Chicago,Weiner gives some suggestions for possible subjects(catalog no. 5): LAID OUT FLATBENT (NOW) THIS WASTURNED (NOW) THAT WAY(in effect LOOPED OVER)A recorded tape of Weiner's voice that plays in the roomwhere this work is shown, mentions the Chicago riverwhich has been turned around so that it no longer flowsinto Lake Michigan. The (flat, bent, turned) magnetictape is on a continuous loop, so it presents itself as anotherpossible object for consideration. Although these are notthe only possible subjects of this work ot art, they serve asinteresting examples and show some of the advantagesthat Weiner finds in using language as a means forpresenting visual art.Words are far more flexible than traditional sculpturalmaterials. When Weiner proposes ideas he is free to drawon all of the physical world, with no size or geographicallimitations. Anything, even the Chicago River, can benamed, and that is all that is required for it to become apart of the work. In Weiner's terms, naming is equal tousing.When a visual art idea is proposed in language, everyelement in it is presented at the same emotional level. Thepresentation of a hand-made object, which containsremnants of the artist's gesture, can appear mysteriousor exotic; hence unknowable. Words can be understoodby viewers who are not necessarily tamiliar with an ar¬tists particular visual style or vocabulary. For the samereason, Weiner is always careful to suggest materials thatare familiar to the audience for which the work is in¬tended. In an exhibition in northern Canada, for instance,he proposed(THE ARCTICCIRCLE SHATTERED)The Chicago River would have little significance forinhabitants of the polar region, except as a distant, un¬familiar geographical phenomena. And since Weiner'smain concern is the clear communication of an un¬derstandable visual idea, common materials are essen¬tial.The installation of the exhibition in the gallery rein¬forces Weiner's goals. Some of the works are spelled out inlarge letters mounted directly on the walls; others arestencilled, typed, and printed on posters. Each of thepieces is accompanied by a label which reads exactly likethe statement on the wall, and the catalog contains averbatim rendition of every work as well. All of this issimply to reiterate that it is the content of the idea beingstated which is important, and not the form taken by thepresentation of that idea. The fact that the catalog israther artful—even beautiful—is, according to the artist,only a matter of courtesy "like brushing your teeth beforetalking to someone."Finally, there is no aesthetic theory that can deal withLawrence Weiner's work. Whether or not it can even becounted as visual art depends on the viewer's willingnessto participate in and make use of linguistic notations forvisual experiences. Even an active viewer will not findmuch in the way of aesthetic satisfaction here, but if hecan see the work as a methodology for dealing with thematerial, visual world, Weiner will have succeeded.Page7v ><-/»> J.f*Hsieh Shih-ch'en "Clearing Skies Among Autumn Mountains andValleys" Hand scroll, ink on paper. Reproduced by permission ofThe David and Alfred Smart Gallery, University of Chicago.The history of HsiehBy Louis VirginRecently Chinese art has been the subject oV severalexhibitions. The current exhibition at the Smart Galleryoffers a unique opportunity to view the work of Hsieh Shih-ch'en. (1487 - c. 1560), a painter of the Ming Dynasty (13681543). The 33 paintings displayed are selections fromprimarily American collections, but they offer an ex¬cellent overview of Hsieh's vast creative range. Alsoexhibited are photographs of the important butunavailable works by Hsieh. A very educative aspect ofthe show is the photographic comparisons of some ofHsieh's major works with earlier Chinese paintings thatconstituted some of Hsieh's inspirational antecedents.During the Ming Dynasty, connoisseurs distinguishedtwo major artistic traditions represented by the Che(professional) and the Wu (amateur of scholarly) schools.The Che style, formulated during the Sung Dynasty (960-1279), was characterized by rich inky tonalities, colorwashes and massive mist-enveloped mountains. The Wuschool emphasized monochromatic tones and in¬dividualized calligraphic brushstrokes developed duringthe Yuan Dynasty (1277-1367). Two prominent Ming ar¬tists of this school were Shen Chou (1427-1509) and WenCheng-ming (1470-1559). Artists like Hsieh whose workcould not be readily classified into either of these twocategories were called "eclectic."The spirit of historic revivalism and preoccupation withnational heritage during the Ming dynasty induced Hsiehand many of his contemporaries to seek inspiration inearlier painting traditions. Simultaneously there was anincreasing trend towards more indivividual interpretationthrough personalized brushstrokes. A feeling of intimacywas imparted through limitations of depth achieved byjuxtaposotion of deliberately unproportional con¬figurations and varying viewpoints. This led to thegeneral fusion of styles transcending the arbitraryboundaries between professional, scholarly and eclecticstandards.Hsieh was primarily a landscape painter but createdhumerous seasonal representations often filled withclassical and narrational motifs. His technical dexterity isexhibited by his facility in using diverse stylistictraditions and optimally employing all formats and mediaavailable to a Chinese artist. At the exhibition are sam¬ples of fan and album leaves, large hanging scrollsexecuted in the Che style and handscrolls of unusuallength, painted in the Wu traditions. Hsieh was not a great innovator in that he did notestablish any new school of painting. All the same, hiswork demonstrates an ability to catch the essence of andexpand upon a variety ot past and contemporary stylesand traditions which can be traced from the seventhcentury to the more modern prototypes of the sixteenthcentury.Thus the professional influence, evidenced bydiagonally contilevered mountains, emphasis onrepetitive patterns, can be traced to Tai Chin (fifteenthcentury) and earlier Sung sources.The scholarly influence of Wu Chen (1280-1354), Ni Tsan(1301-1374) and Wang Meng (c. 1309-1385), transmittedthrough Hsieh's contemporary Shen Chou, is wellestablished by the photographic comparisons.Shen Chou's work, which set the standards for scholarlypainting in the Ming period, was characterized by anaffected awkwardness with regards to treatment ofproporfion and special relationships. Hsieh exaggeratedupon Shen Chou's style and coupled it with a greaterrichness and fluidity of ink. It is true that Hsieh can be criticized for his emphasisof superfluous defail that dilutes the overall expressivequality of his work, and for his frequent duplication otfavorite themes. His greatness, however, lies in hiscoordination of diverse traditional and modern souces inan attempt to find innovative means of expression. He isable to achieve this with considerable flair and boldness.This is Hsieh's first one-man show. During his lifetimehis talents were overshadowed by painters like Shen Chouand Wen Cheng-ming. Until now, in spite of the fact thathis paintings are included in many famous collections,little has been written about him.The exhibit at the Smart Gallery is based on theresearch of Mary S. Lawton, a Ph D. graduate from theUniversity of Chicago Art Department, and is theGallery's first "dissertation exhibition" of what hopefullywill be a continuing series.The Smart Gallery is located on the campus at 5580South Greenwood Ave. and is open to the public free ofcharge. Gallery hours are Tuesday through Saturday 10a.m. to 4 p.m. and Sunday from noon to 4 p.m. Theexhibition will be on view through February 26.If you’re consideringa Mercedes280E,drive a Peugeot604.Like the Mercedes 280 E, the Peugeot 604 SL has four-wheelindependent suspension, a resonsive six-cylinder engine (ours is aV-6), power steering (ours is rack and pinion), a unitized bodyheld together with thousands of welds, power windows, fullyreclining front bucket seats, tinted glass, and meticulous atten¬tion to detail.The Peugeuot 604 has alsobeen engineered for asuperior level ofcomfort.

IN PAPERBACK.^Sci:kkt booksThe Grey City JournalX. :n4v'iv4TheaterIdiots play at wisdomBy John LanahanParody and burlesque may seem to be the easiest ofdramatic genres; they are, in fact, among the hardest.They can lose focus almost instantaneously anddegenerate into a few sporadic moments of occasionalhumor. Some shows, such as El Grande de Coca-Cola andCharles Ludlam's work with the Ridiculous TheatricalCompany, have enough of a structural backbone to keepthe anarchy of burlesque under control, and the result issustained, outrageous humor. The Idiots Karamazov, thecurrent production at Wisdom Bridge, however, attemptstoo much, too soon; too bad! The piece takes out after 19thCen. Russian literature, plus a number of 20th Cen.literary figures, including Hemingway, O'Neill, Brecht,Anais Nin, and Beckett, all seen through the eyes of thatquintessentially prissy translator, Constance Garnett. Itcomes across as a sprawling, over-educated undergraduate in-joke which is pretty much what is wasintended to be when its authors, Christopher Durang andAlbert Innaurato, wrote it their last year as M.F.A.students at the Yale Rep. It may have kept the boys atNew Haven laughing, but this boy from Chicago found itonly sporadically amusing, with long stretches ofunrelieved chaos.The director, Robert Falls, must have felt that hisaudience was so familiar with the conventions of the 19thCen. Russian novel that they could provide their ownunderlying structure to cohere the farcical anarchy. Thisviewer and reviewer, however, did not. The scene shiftswere too abrupt and too frequent, and destroyed anyfeeling of continuity. Changing from Anais Nin's boudoirto the Russian Steppes is funny once; but then to change tothe “Palace'' Theater, to a Chekov drawing room, to theRussian Revolution, back to Constance Garnett, then toDicken's Great Expectations? It sounds great, but myattention was lost many times in the shuffle. Blocking,timing and other formal aspects of direction wereignored, in the hope that the momentum of the play wouldmake such strictures unnecessary.The acting was uneven and wildly unfocused. Ensemblewas a concept untouched by this show, and the piece failedto combine its disparate characters and scenes in anysense except simple juxtapositioning. The show wascarried, as it were, by two fine performances, and em¬bellished by a third. Lawrence McCauley was campy,academically sillv. and ridiculously repressed as ronstance Garnett, sanitizer of the brutal Slavic languagesand their grossier literary offspring. Unfortunately, Mr.McCauley's scenes were usually inserted between, notintegrated into, the rest of the play, and so his con¬siderable comic talents did not unify the rest of theproduction. Paul llmer was perfect as the innocent Alyosha Karamazov, the naive protagonist. With a faceand sincerity somewhere between Michael York and theidiot scion of the Boyars out of Eisenstein's Ivan theTerrible, Mrs. llmer gave what cohesion there was to thisdramatic smorgasbord. Kathleen Hart graced thisproduction with a witty and wistful Katherine Hepburnimitation, as she continually relapsed into Long Day'sJourney Into Night. Dawn Davis and Sandy Laub werepretty good and pretty vacant as Anais Nin's LeatherGirls — the tackier they got, the better they were. GreggFlood as Father Zossima, the Mystic, was precise butimprisoned in his Northwestern-University Dept, of OralInterpretation Voice.Changing from Anais Nin's boudoir tothe Russian Steppes is funny once; butthen to change to the ‘Palace”Theater, to a Chekov drawing room, tothe Russian Revolution, back toConstance Garnett, then to Dickens'Great Expectations'The set design, by John Yeck 111, was flexible and nicelydetailed in Constance Garnett's corner; but it offered nofocus to the chaos on stage. The lighting, designed byLarry Shoememan, was fun, and shifted well with thebreakneck scene changes. The costumes, by TomMcKinley, were a strange combination of the realisticallydetailed and the burlesque silly. The effect, I think, was toundercut the grand seriousness of the Russian Novel withtennis shoes, fright wigs, safety-pinned shirts, etc. DonaldBrearley directed Walt Jone's forgettable music withliberal doses of phlegm.Before I close what may seem a rather sour review, letme confess that I once directed a production of Sheridan'sThe Rivals with the idea of burlesquing the play. The re¬sults were less than stellar: but it did make me acutely,aware of the need of any parody or burlesque to have asharply defined focus. Burlesque may actually be themost structured dramatic form, in that one must knowand master an art form before one can successfullyparody it. The Idiots Karamazov suffers in that it takes ontoo much to parody, and the ensemble is not there to givethe show enough structure to make it a successfulburlesque.

Even teachers cracked smiles at his jokes.He was funny in the morning in homeroom, funny in theafternoon at lunch, and funny in the early evening on theway home from school.He was so funny that we chose him to emcee the SeniorTalent Show. We gave him a microphone and a spotlight.We told him, the class clown, to introduce the classsinger and dancer. And we told him to be, above allfunny.What happened was this: He had no lines to read andcouldn't improvise. He turned out to be as funny as BobHope on a sharp night-which is to say, he wasn't funny atall. The class dancer stole the show.The morals are many. Perhaps most relevant, since thisis a review of last Friday's campus appearance of Thei Reification Company, is that improvisational comedy is‘one of the most difficult of art forms. It has never been, to! my knowledge, and probably never will be, called a craft,j No other art — save, perhaps spontaneous jazz — involves: so many risks or demands such exacting conditions. By! definition, or improver can neither rehearse nor train.Experience helps, but luck determines everything. He.i must be blessed with the right talent and chutzpah, astrong supportive cast, and a receptive audience.I At the invitation of MAB, the members of TheReification Company came to Hyde Park with most of the| above conditions going for them. I saw the first of their| two performances at Ida Noyes. By the end of it, it seemed| to me their reputation as the finest (re:purest) ofChicago's improv groups seemed well-deserved.Tom Tully, the shortest of the cast members in heightbut the biggest in wit, began the set with a definition of the| verb "reify". To paraphrase, it means pulling materialout of the air to give sustance to the abstract — perhapsthe most succinct description of improv comedy I've everi heard. Highly conscious of its responsibility to the theory| underlying its uccess, The Reification Company takes: seriously the traditions of its fragile art. The Company isright to boast of its connections — however loose — to thej legendary Compass Bar.Tully, of course, reified unalone. He was joined by, inascending degree of madness: Bernadette Birkett, whoI was eagerly pleasing; Rob Riley, whose schtick is his; very presence; Nonie Newton, convincingly goofy andj lovingly hateful of TV commercials; and lastly, the lustyand anything but leastly Danny Green. Accompanying onpiano was Mark Nutter, who was almost as funny anyoneelse in the ensemble.The Company had done its homework. The northsidecast seemed to have conscientiously spent time readingj the Maroon, boning up on U.C. topics that, when raisedi unexpectedly in the middle of a piece would prove killing| ways to get U.C. laughs. Issues covered included (again inascending order of madness) Student Gyne, Milton; Friedman, Plato, and the housing situation.

The only peoplewho could tell you anything about it were the importrecord addicts and a few folks who'd been lucky enough tohave a radio turned on while they were soaking in the sunduring their vacation "in the islands". For anyone whowas there for any length of time at all, reggae becameinescapable. The music hit the Caribbean a lot likeEnglish rock n' roll hit America in the sixties. No doubtthe powers that be in calypso shuddered the same way theAmerican folkies did when they realized there wassomething called the Beatles. Nobody was too sure whatthey had on their hands, but whatever it was it waspopular as all hell. Twelve year-old kids started walkingaround with transistor radios glued to their ears, reggae45's sold out in the record stores faster than the SexPistols' "God Save the Queen" sold in New York City, andpretty soon calypso was "somebody elses' music."While it was true that the music had made it throughoutthe islands, the best of it was and is Jamaican. Everythingelse was just so much imitation. In Jamaica it's "roots"music, it's the peoples' culture, it's theirs.To try to figure out how it developed is to finally realizethat it owes a little bit to a lot of different things.Depending on who you listen to you can hear a little MiamiSoul, a little gospel, a touch of creole here and there; butit's still Jamaican pop music. Jamaican pop went througha lot of changes in the sixties. Folk music evolved intomusic referred to as Ska, then Rock-Steady, and reggaewas the final product of all the changes. As nearly asanyone can tell, the name reggae comes from a Rock¬steady tune called "Do the Reggay".With the release of "The Harder They Come" in iy/1(which may well be the most popular 'cult film' of all-time. . . it's been showing every weekend at a theater inCambridge for about six years now) people started torealize that not only was something going on in Jamaica,but something good was going on. And of course peoplestarted looking for the "stars". The first reggae stars inAmerica turned out to be the performers from the movie:Jimmy Cliff and Toots and the Maytals.For a while, the soundtrack album from the "HarderThey Come" was the only reggae record to be found. Butas it was selling better than anybody had ever figured itwould, it didn't take too long before other albums showedup in the stores. Reggae found its superstar figure in BobMarley, and the Wailers were the first band to work theirway into the Top TOO and onto the sacred airwaves.Reggae was finally being heard, and those of us who'dfirst heard it in the late sixties and never understood whyno one here had ever heard of it felt happily vindicated.It continued to grow. Reggae became associated withRasta, and rasta with protest and smoking unprecedentedquantities of ganja (a type of reefer). To a lot of folks, this"new" kind of music based on dope and revolution (even ifit wasn t their revolution) sounded iust too good to be true.So the counterculture "discovered" reggae. Pretty soonMarley's smiling face was on the cover of everything fromHigh Times to The SoHo News, to the all-important cover,Rolling Stone. Reggae became the "next big thing" as faras rock was concerned.The problem with being the "next big thing" is thatpeople have a tendency to assume that if reggae is aboutto invade the music market like nothing has before allreggae must be great. All it takes is a couple of badreviews and the "next big thing" is stopped dead in itstracks and everyone starts looking for a new saviour. Sonow reggae is no longer threatening to invade and punkhas taken over the role. I wish the kids with the safety pinsluck, but I have my doubts.Any way, while the invasion is probably over, the starswho've picked up a following over the years will be safe solong as they continue to turn out good records. While wemav never hear from the Heotones or l-Rov aaain,Marley, Toots and the Maytals, and to a lesser extentBurning Spear, have made their way into the Americanmarket.Toots and the Maytals have been a part of the Americanreggae scene since there's been such a thing. They werethe most popular reggae band in Jamaica for a long timebefore that, and probably still are. Two of their albumshave been released in America, and each of them in itsown way is nothing short of excellent. But this band canand should be a success solely on the strength of theirconcert performances; which is to say Toots' per¬formances. Without a doubt they're the finest live act inReggae music, and Toots Hibbert owns one of the bestvoices to be heard today in any style of music. The Maytals first American release, "FunkyKingston", compiles the best songs from their three orfour earlier British releases. There's not a touch of theganja-opression-revolution music that was to make TheWailers (and reggae in general) "the next big thing' Thisrecord is straighforward sing-your-ass-off, rock-your-ass-off goodtimes music. The record covers everything fromfhe early almost "folk song" sound of "Love is Gonna LetMe Down" and "Sail On" to the pure fun of Toots' coversof "Louie. Louie" and "Country Road."Even it mere was nothing else ever recoruea by thisband save for the title track, that would have been enoughto prove that Toots is a great singer fronting a great band."Funky Kingston" never fails to remind me of OtisRedding's performance of "Shake" at the Montery PopFestival. Seeing Toots work up a sweat with this song inconcert leaves you with the same impression. The man isall throat, like the best of the R&B singers. And like thebest singers have always been able to do, he can work asmuch as possible out of every song he sings. How elsecould he sing a reggae version of "Country Road" andmake it sound like something more than a sickly sweetpop song?His second record, "Reqaae Got Soul," is a little mnrpambitious. For one thing, Toots is now a Rasta, puttinghim and Marley in the same spiritual world.Rastafarianism is as hard fo describe as it is to un¬derstand. Briefly, it's a social, religious movement basedaround Marcus Garvey's "back to Africa" teachings, afundamentalist reading of certain passages from the KingJames Bible, and the consumption of amazing amounts ofthe sacred ganja. After all, God told Adam that he hadgiven him "every herb bearing seed".While Toots and boo Marley are both Rastas, theirmusic is still as different as it always has been. With theexceDtion of a few songs from his album "Exodus”, Marley's music is dead serious. It's full of messages aboutnearly all social, political, and religious ills; and while themelodies and rhythms are easy to become lost in, hislyrics don't make life seem especially joyful. Toots is asoptimistic as ever. His spiritual songs, particularly"Rasta Man", are more concerned with the joys of Rastathan the problems of life in Trenchtown."Reggae Got Soul" is a little slicker than the firstalbum. But slick production hasn't had any of the badeffects on Toots that it has so frequently had on the bestrock n' roll bands. Some of the rough edges have beensmoothed just a bit, but it's been done to Toots' advantageas a singer, allowing the sweeter, quietly soulful part ofhis voice to come through.I don't mean to leave anyone with the impression thatToots is all there is to this band. The almost anonymousbacking voices of Raleigh Gordon and Jerry Matthiasprovide Toots with some beautiful harmonies. Theirvoices blend even more beautifully than did Bob Marley's,Peter Tosh's and Bunny Livingston's when the Wailerswere more than "Marley's band". The band itself is one ofthe best in reggae. They don't immediately strike you withthe power of Burning Spear's musicians; they don't haveto. Toots provides the punch and his band creates awonderfully seamless background. Especially notable inconcert is organist Winston Wright, who's been around fora long time and has mastered the art of subtle ac¬companiment.While the records Toots and the Maytals have made areexcellent and among the best reggae albums available,thiS is one band that is, above all, meant to be seen inconcert. The cliche' is used too often, but Toots performances are electric. He works himself and hisaudiences as well as anyone. They're aren't many greatsingers, and even fewer exciting performers, TootsHibbert is both.Toots does two shows Friday night in Mandel Hall, at7:30 and 10:30. Tickets are $3 and S4 w/fee, $5.50 and $6.50without. Good seats are still available for both shows.Toots and the Maytals can and should be a success solely on thestrength of their concert performances, which is to sayToots’ performances. Without a doubt they are the finest live act inreggae music, and Toots Hibbert owns one of the best voicesto be heard today in any style of music.ila Do you know where yoiPhoto by Steve StrandbergPhoto by Steve Strandberg The Aragon Ballroom is Chicago'spremier rock battleground. Itstradition since the sixties has been oneot rowdy crowds, drunken brawls, andheavy drug abuse, all taking placeunder fake stars in the ceiling andMoorish castles in the walls. You watchyour step at the Aragon because younever know who you might find underfoot.The Ramones played the Aragon lastFriday night. The group is probably theclosest thing America has to punk rocksuperstars, and Chicago's punks wereout in full force to hear the band's threechord anthems like "Now I WannaSniff Some Glue." Taking rockilliteracy to ifs absurd conclusion, theRamones are the ultimate rock jokeband. But neither they nor theiraudience take themselves very lightly,and that causes problems. Punks meanserious business, and the whole sceneresembled something out of "A Clockwork Orange," maybe even somethingworse.The English style of punk - dyed hair,leather jackets, and safety pins - wasstandard dress for a good part of thecrowd. But for every punk there wasPhoto by Steve StrandbergPage 12 i lit. The Grey City Journal^1-ur children are tonight?one or more sightseers, "tourists"there to see the sights, to see the"scene" like it was the rebirth ofHaight Ashbury. Media hype has madepunk the "next big thing," but anyonewho thinks it might be "fun" to go stareat the punks has missed the point en¬tirely.The ethic of punk is supposed tomean "no fun:" no fun to be given bythe band, as lead singer Joey Ramonespits out his lyrics with no emotionshown except anger; no fun for thecrowd, who are either wildly dancingthe "pogo" - jumping up and down andhitting each other - or are tripping onangel dust downstairs; certainly no fungiven by either the band or the crowd toany listeners who are crashing theirconcert only to stare at safety pins andmakeup. The punks don't care for whatthey see as a media invasion of theirprivate suicidal party. They don't carehow "hip" the world sees them as, andprobably don't care if the world seesthem at all.So take a quick look at what punk isbefore it goes the way of Chicagohippie; dead before it had a chance tolive, and buried under a concretereality stronger than any amount ofyouthful rebellion. „Jeff AAakosPhoto by David MillerFriday, February:}, 1978 Page 13THIN LIZZY Bad Reputation.

Americanpunk for people who don't like punk.Probably Todd's best since "SomethingAnything'.PUNK ROCKOf ail the new breakouts that happenedthis year, punk was the most important, andarguably the most interesting, phenomenonto hit the American public. Despite theappalling amount of media hype, punkactually does have its roots in a very seriousrealm — that of working class frustrationand anger currently exploding in the streetsof England. The value of this movement forthe American public is certainlyquestionable, since it has been a long timesince we have harbored any real sympathyfor our bi centennial neighbors. Perhapsthe ubiquitous American passion for oldthings in bright new packages is responsiblefor the craze — or perhaps our sympatheticreaction to this radical unrest is legitimate.If the latter is the case, we'd better lock ourwindows and watch the streets because,despite whatever else it isn't, punk ishappening now.SEX PISTOLS Never Mind the Bollocks,Here's the . . . due in part to theiroutrageous behavior, the Pistols havereceived more than their share ofpublicity, causing many people to writethem off as mere media hype. On the basisof their singles 'Anarchy' and 'God Savethe Queen', however, it is impossible toignore this group as the leader of the 'NewWave'.RAMONES Rocket to Russia. One of thefirst generation of American punk bands,the Ramones sound at times closer to theBeach Boys than to the Sex Pistols. Gluesniffing at its bestEDDIE AND THE HOTRODS Life on theLine.

In caseyou missed either of these, we at WHPK FMhave compiled the following annotated listof records which were played on our show.Included here are what we consider to havebeen the 88 best records of the year, plus thethree worst (stiffs). In addition, we havelisted the 20 best singles.To generalize about any year in musicseems a somewhat foolish endeavor, sincethe most striking highpoints are at¬tributable to individual artists rather thanto general movements. However, it is worthsaying that, retrospectively, last yearseemed more exciting than 1976, due inlarge part to the rise of punk rock (see thatsegment below), and to the suddencrossover of disco to a hugh mass-market.As for the rest, it seems that there wassomething exciting for every tasfe. Read onand make your own judgement.Here goes:Johnny RottenWatch for a solo disc from George thisPopular rock, while attaining unparalleledsales, not surprisingly provided little inthe way of innovation.

It was in manyrespects an outstanding production, certainly a daringone, and certainly one that showed hard work, thoughtand conscientiousness on the part of every one concerned.During the last two seasons, and particularly this one, theCourt theatre has been worth going to, largely thanks toits remarkable new head, Nick Rudall. Rudall's Butleywas a well deserved success. It is not to depreciate it tosay that it was a sure winner in a modern academiccommunity, especially with Rudall in the principal part,for he is an actor of talent quite beyond what can be expected in any academic theatre. It is in the nature ofthings that Sophocles' Electra should be a much tougherproposition for this modern stage. Yet the audiences werelarge and plainly enjoyed it. Despite the immense difficulties Qf the play, and the difficulties which the translation inflicts on modern amateur player for which Imust accept my share of the blame it was clear that theplay got home to the listeners at least three quarters of thetime.last plays Sophocles wrote which we possess. Theyprobably appeared between 415-404 B.C. During thisperiod he was experimenting. He continued to use thecommon myths as before, and as before, with only minorchanges, the conventional apparatus of tragedy — theChorus, the Messenger, the Prologue and occasionally thedeus ex machina. But he was changing the tragedy asmuch as his contemporary Euripides, though the latter'sinnovations have been much more noticed by scholarlycommentators. What is remarkable about Sophocles inthese late plays is the shift in the treatment of the mythand above all the peculiar tone.The myth in which Electra figures is the story ofAgamemnon and Orestes. Perhaps the greatestachievement of the older Greek stage had been theOresteia of Aeschylus. Here the dramatic rendering of themyth had been loaded with the widest religious and socialimplications; it was written at least thirty five yearsbefore the Electra of Sophocles, and we really do not knowhow much access the audience of the later dramatist had to the work of the earlier one. What Sophocles does is tosweep away the whole theme, or network of themes, of hispredecessor — the inheritance of the curse, the question ofindividual sin or the God imposed role of guilt, theresponsibility of Apollo, and the eventual reconciliation ofthe Male and Female Gods. He has even rendered trivialthe final act of the first part of the story, Orestes' revengeon Aegisthus and Clytemnestra, virtually eliminating theemphasis on matricide. Instead you have an almostmodern play of psychological realism, asking youquestions like: what sort of woman is Electra, waiting fora revenge which she ineffectually plots to execute herself,but for which she depends on Orestes; what sort thatmother of hers — who turns out to be almost a duplicate ofherself; what sort of man the returning Orestes, who hasnot seen his home since a child. He has been rescued fromthe hypothetically murderous hands of his mother longago by his devoted sister, but personally he is utterlyremote from the whole circumstances of the case, andwithout conscious involvement in the evils he is bound torevenge — except for the recovery of his kingdom.So the legend, as story, is reconstructed. One follows theplot to its conclusion, and a sordid piece it is with the boyresolutely, almost cheerfully killing his mother, and thenbringing her veiled body for Aegisthus to discover as apreliminary to his own execution. But even so the weightlies less on the significance of the bits of the story, becausethe events have been deprived of their mythologicalsignificance, as on the disturbing characters which thetransformed figures of the legned become.They are convincing — in a thoroughly stagey way. Andthere lies the trouble with how to put them on a modernstage. Sophocles' Electra is two fingers breadth from theblack comedy of Pinter. But it is two fingers' breadthfrom it, ana it needs someone like Tyrone Guthrie tocreate a style, half formalized and half colloquial, to dealproperly with this play. When Aegisthus argues aboutwhether he should go first off stage to his death, with hiscaptors behind, anticipating the ancient equivalent of abullet in the back of the head, or whether this impiies thathis enemies are afraid he will escape, the audience in theCourt theatre thought it funny. They are right, in a way. Itis a contrast that Sophocles deliberately instituted bet¬ween the formalism of the older tragedy and thediscomfort involved in its new realistic focus. But theexecution is a fact, all the same, and the comedy, black orotherwise, does not extend to any Gilbertian version ofNanki-PO.The language of Sophocles' play is not markedly poetic.It is very near to prose but the formalized rhythm of theiambics and the conventionalized vocabulary hold it at adistorted distance from prose. If the translation should reflect the main stylistic gestures ot the original (and Ithink it should) the verse translation of this play presentsat particular places a serious problem for modern actors.Frequently the simplicity of the words and solemnity ofthe line — or the tone of solemnity — bring out a hopelessdisparity — and you lose your audience. The scene whereClytemnestra's face is unveiled for Aegisthus is such amoment. In its uncomfortable weightiness and protrac¬tion it appears to an unused audience pure melodrama.The only way to guard against this would be a degree oftraining in the actors and a degree of knowing par¬ticipation in the audience which could not possibly beexpected the other evening.Such failures of communication between audience andactors were moments only, and very brief. They weremore than compensated for by what the companymanaged to put across.The direction (Beth Goldring) was for the most partrealistic, and in my view of the play and what the com¬pany could do with it, rightly so. It gave us a convincingElectra (Margaret Root). She was hysterical, furious andabove all, quite crazy, and did very well with her hugetask. Electra has a very long part to speak, and even whenshe is not talking she is the center of the audience's in¬terest almost all the one and a half hour's she is on stage.It says a great deal for this actress that only rarely wasone aware of strain or monotony. I believe it was amistake to keep her crouching throughout until themoment she discovers her brother. This was a piece ofgimmicry — something very uncommon in the rest of theproduction. The choreography of the chorus was am¬bitious. In part it was very good and the chorus movedwell. It was at its vest in the early dialogue betweenElectra and themselves. Perhaps it should have beenslightly less extensive, but it did impart character toportions of the play which delivered as unaccompanieddialogue cannot easily be accepted. Orestes was ex¬cellent. He conveyed very well a shallow energy and selfsufficiency but to my surprise did his part in making thereunion of the brother and sister really moving.Chrysotemis (Wendy Loeff) was also very good. Herdialogues with her sister were done naturally and ef¬fectively. Both Clytemnestra (Ruth Hamilton) andAegisthus (Geoffrey Plampin) were satisfactory, butneither put quite enough drive into their parts. The Chorus(Sally Garen, Jody Kruskai, Mary Wall) were very goodin the straight choruses.This was an experimental production. It did great credit'to those concerned in it, taught the actors a lot, that wasnot all obvious, and may even have given something newto the audienceDavid GreneFaculty and StudentsFebruary 6th will be the last dav Winter quarter books will be on sale.

Thejacket was purchased by my aunt who feelsI must possess such things as I shall beentering the "outside" world very soon. Therest was a gift from my father. Originally hehad bought me three sets of records which,collectively, were the entire quartets ofBeethoveen. I thanked my father but toldhim I did not think I was musically matureenough for the middle and late quarters. Hewas inclined to agree. "Your appreciationwill come in time," he consoled me. Ireturned the records, received a sizeablecredit, and gave it to my father who isknown to buy records on any given eveningof the week.My father asked me what I'd like inreturn. I told him although I had no need fora suit, everyone else, at least by their senioryear in college, had found that reasonenough to go out and purchase a suit. I informed him that I did possess a fine wellmade blazer and that what went with it wasscheduled to go on sale a few days afterChristmas which just happened to be thetime of year when we were discussing thismatter. My father agreed that a sturdy suit was a sound investment iust as long as Ididn't gain or lose any weight.The suit is wonderful. It is a thick Irishtweed and as pleasant to look at as it iscomfortable to wear. It only presents oneproblem: I have absolutely nowhere to wearit.There are no functions at this Universitywhich require such refined dress. I nolonger work downtown and when I did it wasat an office where jackets (safe hung fromthe President's shoulders) were a rarity.People no longer "date", they "go out"(as in "go out to walk the dog"). Men nolonger call women, long liberated, neverphone. People meet "by chance". If, bysome freak accident, two people do plan tomeet and do something (as opposed to "Idunno. What do you want to do?"), one, ifnot both, of the parties are sure to informthe other that he or she has little or nocapital. Attire: clean blue jeans. At best.All of this is fine. I haven't got any moneyeither. But I do have a suit. A friend oncewore a suit to a job interview. He was sowell dressed that no one would hire him.Possible employers felt the job was belowhis station and his means far above theirown. At his last interview he sported a keenoutfit that had been purchased at severalneighborhood thrift stores. He was offered agenerous salary during the interview. i nve with two business school students.Both of them have several interviews eachweek to which I have never seen them wearthe same suit twice. When they get home,they usually race to their rooms, rip off theirsuits, and jump into their "sloppiest,mangiest" clothes which are comparable tosome of my finer ensembles. The goal of oneof my roommates: to buy a pair of bluejeans (not owning a pair at present) beforegraduation.I entertained the thought of going tobusiness school, just so I could wear mysuit. The thought lasted five minutes, ex¬cluding numerous interruptions (a donut,the mailman, a yawn). But I rejected theidea for three sound reasons. First of all, Icouldn't afford another suit; that is not untilI had a job and I couldn't get one withoutseveral interviews. Second, if I wore my suitto those several interviews, I'd tire of it andthat would defeat the purpose of the suit andBusiness school entirely. Third, the idea ofgoing into business makes me nauseous.So my suit is still wonderful. It isn't soiledor wrinkled or faded. I like to think of it as aprized jewel that might make an appearance sometime before I have to startdressing well everyday. When wearing suitsgets to be a habit, that's the time I'll reallylove my Levi's.The Merchant of the Four Seasons (1972),directed by Rainer Werner Fassbinder.(Doc) A fruit peddler watches his unex¬ceptional life disintegrate, when, houndedby the women he has known, he bleaklyturns to drink. Fassbinder's film about theerosion of promise, combines ex-perimentalism and naturalistic melodrama,deftly balancing style with humanity toevoke sympathy without betraying themind. He sandwiches shifts of mood andtone with losing control for a single moment.The film is both soap opera and socialcomedy, and Fassbinder exposes thenatural surrealism of modern middle-classlife.

Inthe shadow of Carter’s anti-Soviet“human rights” campaign aimed atrefurbishing U.S. imperialism’s“moral” image, these vicarious stockbrokers peddle a moral gesture whosepolitical logic is not materially to aidthe struggling South African blackmasses, but rather to counterpose“ethical investment choices” or“good” exploitation to “bad,”“unethical” exploitation, “good”bosses to “bad” bosses. Thus U.S.imperialism and UC, the birthplace ofthe atom bomb dropped on Hiroshimaand of the Pinochet/Friedman “shocktreatment,” are held to “legitimize”South Africa. For us, there are nogood bosses, no good exploitation. Themain enemv is at home: U.S.imperialism. We put forward aproletarian-internationalist per¬spective to fight Vorster and his U.S.imperialist big brothers.We rely on the strength of the in¬ternational working class and not onthe conscience of the big corporations.Workers in the U.S. must force cor¬porations with branches in SouthAfrica to recognize full trade-unionrights for black workers to assist theclass organization of apartheid’sproletarian gravediggers. Unionsmust block transport of militarysupplies to the apartheid regime. Thelabor movement must demandrelease of prisoners of apartheidrepression and put its muscle behindthe struggle to conquer democraticrights and smash apartheid. We callfor universal suffrage and the electionof a constituent assembly.In place of moralism and liberal-utopian schemes for “destabilizing”apartheid through divestment, we arefor the expropriation of industry,from GM to Oppenheimer, by a black-centered workers and peasantsgovernment. Only class struggle,under the leadership of a Trotskyistvanguard party, can smash apartheidand open the road to the workersrevolution that will avenge the heroicdead of Soweto.Spartacus Youth LeagueBreaking lawTo the Editor:Claudia Magat’s feature articleabout WHPK opened a very in¬teresting can of fish, but un¬fortunately I don’t think sheadequately dealt with the legal issuesinvolved. If she had turned to thedecision of Judge Walter C. Miller onthe renewal of license for WXPN, thestation of the University of Penn¬sylvania (Docket No. 20677, File No.Bred-155) p. 48 she would have foundthe following programming policystatement:“This duty (of the licensee) to holdthe reins extends to the need to controland supervise all material which isbroadcast through their facilities.’This includes all programs... Thisduty is personal and may not bedelegated. He is obligated to bring hispositive responsibility affirmativelyto bear upon all who have a hand inproviding broadcast matter throughlis facilities so as to assure thedischarge of his duty to provide ac¬ceptable program schedule consonantwith operating in the public interest inhis community.In Ms. Magat’s article she states:“While the administration has its ownideas about WHPK programming(Charles) O’Connell and (Riley)Davis realise that it is not their right,or obligation to interfere in this area.”The FCC disagrees most strenuouslywith Davis and O’Connell. It is not only their right but legally bindingobligation to oversee programming.In the final summary of the Penn¬sylvania renewal decision the FCClisted 15 violations of law for whichthe trustees were held accountable. Apartial list follows:1. There were times when thestation was operated without aproperly licensed engineer.2. There were times when thestation was operated by non-licensedpersonnel.3. Often station maintenance wasperformed by unlicensed personnel.4. There were periods of time whenno operating logs were maintained.7. There were times when no weeklytransmitter readings were made;10. Disc jockeys left the FM controlboard unattended.12. Station personnel brought ontoand used hashish, marijauna, andalcohol on the station’s premises.The commission then concluded:“In view of the foregoing it is con¬cluded that the licensee (i.e. theTrustees of the University of Penn¬sylvania), has not exercised adequatecontrol or supervision over theoperation of station WXPN in amanner consistent with its respon¬sibilities as a licensee... So thetrustee’s renewal application will bedenied.”The opinion of the court is painfullyclear. The licensee, in WHPK’s casethe administration and trustees of theUniversity of Chicago, is legallyobligated to oversee the day to dayoperation of their radio station.Somebody at this school is breakingthe law and I think he should be madeaware of it.Mark NeustadtRosen resignsThe Maroon has received thefollowing letter to SG president CarolSwanson:Dear Carol,Recently in a letter to The Maroonyou told us that SG was doing things.As a matter of fact, you said, we aregoing to discuss, at our next meeting,an important resolution on divestitureand South Africa. As a representativeI attended that meeting and hopedthat we would pass the resolution. Asyou know, although most of the bodyseemed in favor of the measure itcould not be voted on because severalmembers of the assembly were ableto end the meeting by calling for aquorum count and not answering totneir names. While this went on, our“Better leadership” did nothing, thusany sense of democracy went out thewindow. Carol, you say that SG is nota joke — well I’ve stopped laughing. Ihave often criticised SG for passingresolutions and not mobilizingstudents to work for them — it hasmade sense to do this within theassembly. Yet it has now got to thepoint where SG can’t even pass animportant resolution (the SouthAfrica resolution has been on theagenda since November and has notbeen voted on!) I can no longer seeany reason to participate in bankrupt,bureaucratic, bullshit. Hence, I amresigning my position as OtherCollege representative and my seat onthe Finance Committee.Seth RosenElephant shitTo the Editor:There are several points of debateon the South Africa issue, but trusteespokesman Allison Dunham haselevated one above the others: hesays the trustees have as their “firstobligation... to earn as much moneyfor the University as is possible under U S law.” Finding refuge behind afirst “principle” (to avoid arguing indetail) presumes the universalvalidity of that principle. In Mr.Dunham’s case, that presumption isnonsensical.Imagine: company X in country Amanages to enslave the trustees andadministrators of Yale University andto transport them to A where they aresubmitted to murder, torture rape,and reruns of the David Frost Revueand are forced to aid company X inthe manufacture of its products. TheUnited States thinks its conflicts withthe Soviet Union preclude an im¬mediate response. The University ofChicago springs into action byorganizing a new Presidential SearchCommittee. It then discovers thatmaximization of return on its in¬vestments is expected if it maintainsits controlling interest in company X(some of its members contemplatethe wisdom shown in voting withmanagement against a proxy whichwould have prevented the abduction).Everyone knows that it is only amatter of time until the United Statesforces the University to force thecompany to return Yale’s heroes. Butthe government worries over itsweakening sphere of influence, theissue is “obviously complex,” andpolitical change moves slowly. In themeantime, atrocities continue. Is theUniversity obligated to support thepresent managerial policy?It is the question of responsibilitywhich is deepest and which mostconsistently strikes emotionalresonance. Many capitalists try toseparate politics from economics byclaiming that it is immoral for in¬vestment decisions to be made by theState, while at the same timeclaiming they are not responsible forsuch decisions as they make them¬selves. They then wonder why theyappear dishonest.The substantive issue is whether thecorporations which are partly ownedby the University are (perhapsinadvertently) contributors to tneatrocities. Appeal to a principle whichabsolves the University of allresponsibility is elephantshit.Rob KassPS. I have not addressed thelegitimate concerns of thetrustees. However, neither hasMr. Dunham. The response tooutrageous statements is outrage.Sad lossTo the Editor:I was paging through the mostrecent issue of the Alumni magazinethe other day and was shocked to readof the death of David Affelder, a 72graduate of the college, apparentlydue to an accident in AlaskaI suspect there are still quite a fewpeople on campus who remember thistruly unique individual. Affelder wasone of the types who made Chicagowhat it was during my years there —a place where individualismflourished and “anything went”. Hisconstant pranks such as the SVNAnude swim-ins and the lasciviouscostume ball really kept the old placelively. It was a treat just to sit in theCobb Hall coffee shop and listen to hiswitticisms. I believe that he was, infact, given some kind of award at hisgraduation for his contributions tocampus life.Assuming this notice to theMagazine isn’t just another one ofAffelder’s tricks (it would not beunlike him). I would have to say thatChicago’s alumni are the poorer forhis loss. Although I was only a casualacquaintance of his, I couldn’t helpbut feel sorry at the news.Peter Goodsell 71Maroons squeeze by Beloit, 67-65BeloitJacksonReamHanzlirGronkeSmothZuellickDonizeNoldenLappingChicagoBeloitIM ReportBasketball season endingBy Howard SulsBasketball winds up Monday with a fewplaces left in the standings still up in the air.The tournament draw is being held in theI.M. office this afternoon with a Maroonreporter as witnessAction was light since last week,especially with the rescheduling of majorgames from last Thursday’s flurry.

Only Tania Weiss and .Joanie Yamallwere able to salvage respectability withtheir respective fourth and fifth placefinishes.Then as if to further frustrate the team,last weeks snow storm prevented themfrom travelling to the Wisconsin Gover¬nor’s Cup. Fortunately, on Sunday theteam was able to travel to Sundown, Iowafor the Iowa Governor’s Cup Against alarge field that included the strongUniversities of Wisconsin - Stevens Pointand LaCrosse, the Maroons tallied several impressive results. In the men’s division,Steve Thomas scored with a fifth placeslalom, and a seventh place giant slalomBut more impressive was freshmanMitchell Levine who in three weeks hasmoved from the C-squad to the A-team.and who scored team points with hisrespectable 12-place finish. In the women’sdivision, Tania Weiss had the best resultsthat any U.C. racer has ever had when shewas third in the slalom, and when she wonthe Giant Slalom Overall Tania took third.In her first season of racing she hasbecome one of the top women in theMidwest. The teams next races will beSunday at Welch Village, Minnesota forthe Minn Governor’s Cup and then atOlympia, Wise, next Wednesday.are behind Ripon and Lake Forest, teams 3-0 in the east division of the Midwest Con¬ference. The Maroons could be tied forsecond with Lake Forest, except for a losson a last-second shot in one of their matches.Beloit slipped to 1-2 in the conference, 12-3overall.Looking ahead, the Maroons will havetheir hands full this weekend, as they playNorthwestern College tonight here at 7, andhost conference-leading Ripon tomorrow.The Ripon game will definitely be one ofthe major games for the Maroons this year.They have won 3 of their last 4, and need tobeat Ripon to get back into the conferencerace.Angelus figures on a close finish in theMCAC crown, as all of the six teams areclosely matched. The difference, hebelieves, will be coaching. He would notreveal how he plans to play Ripon, exceptfor the usual stress on defense.The Redmen boast the second-leadingscorer in the country in one Lud Wurtz.Wurtz has a 30.2 points-per-eame average.Also tough will be 6’8” 210 pound center TomFriedell, and Dan Dallman, who has a 19.5ppg average in the conference. Angelushopes to hold the Redmen down by keepingWurtz to half his usual output, and thusdemoralizing the whole teamThe Chicago Maroon — Friday.’Petoruary 3, W78 — 5>By John PomidorThe men’s basketball team travelled toWisconsin Saturday and, with a 24-pointperformance by senior Dan Hayes, beatBeloit College 67-65.Hayes took game honors with 11 of 16 fromthe field, but coach John Angelus had praisefor just about the whole team’s per¬formance.“Jay Alley is shooting well now, Danny’sblending in, and Jim Tolf is playing greatdefense. He’s playing much better thanmost freshmen do. He’s been well-schooled,” Angelus said.Also, he mentioned Mafk Miller, whofilled in for Jay Alley when he was in foultrouble, and gotT points while playing gooddefense. Forward Brett Schaefer also wasgood off the bench, filling in for Tolf andgetting timely rebounds. “We’re getting a 9-man performancenow,” Angelus said. “At the beginning of theyear, I was juggling the line-up to get theright combination. It’s paid off now,because we’re all operating smoothly.”Angelus had a technical called againsthim Saturday when the Maroons nearly losttheir 7-point halftime lead. He wasprotesting that 8 of the first 9 second-halffouls were against Chicago. But he didn’tcomplain later.“I don’t think they were using homers,they were just bad refs,” he explained.“There are a lot of colleges in the Chicagoarea, but none around schools like Beloit.Our refs have a lot of experience, but theirsdon’t get much chance to work differentgames.”The victory gives the Maroons a 5-7record, with a 2-2 conference mark.
