Murphy is the Acting PublicGuardian of Cook County having been ap¬pointed by the Honorable James R. Thomp¬son on 22 November. 1978 to act in that ca¬pacity. As such, he is responsible forapproximately 500 individuals who are pre¬sently wards of the DMHDD such wards re¬siding both in DMHDD institutions and innursing home care under the supervisionand monitoring of DMHDD and DefendantdeVito. About 100 of his wards were at Man¬teno in the 1950's and 1960’s at the time whenthe surgery complained of was performed.As Public Guardian of Cook County he is re¬sponsible to insure that his wards receiveadequate care and to the degree that theydid not in the past, to seek any recompensethat may be owing to them for such violationof their statutory and/or constitutionalrights and to sue on their behalf for any tor¬tious conduct.Factual AllegationsJurisdiction And Venue1. This is an action seeking certain de¬claratory and injunctive relief, namely thatthe constitutional and statutory rights offormer and present wards of the Depart¬ment of Mental Health and DevelopmentalDisabilities (hereinafter DMHDD) had sur¬gery performed upon them without in¬formed consent being given, such surgerybeing performed merely for experimentalpurposes. Venue is placed in Cook County,Illinois because most of the patients whowere operated upon had their official resi¬dence in Cook County at the time of the sur¬gery and were committed to the DMHDDpursuant to provisions of the then MentalHealth Code from Cook County, Illinois. 3.Upon belief and information the Peti¬tioner believes that in the 1950’s and 1960’sexperimental surgery was performed onmental health patients residing at MantenoState Hospital. This surgery consisted ofadrenal-eetomies. Such operations wereperformed allegedly for experimental pur¬poses. Upon belief and information it ap¬pears that the University of Chicago wasdoing experimentation on prostrate cancerand the effect of the adrenalin on suchcancer. Upon information given to the Peti¬tioner by individuals employed at the Man¬teno Mental Health Center, mental healthpatients at Manteno in the 1950’s and 1960’sreceived this surgery with DMHDD cooper¬ation even though they themselves were notin need of the adrenal-eetomies.

The apparentreason for such surgery was merely to de¬termine the connection between the adren¬alin and cancer.4.The apparent procedure in performingthese surgeries was to remove a patient se¬lected by a team of consultants from the so-called back wards at Manteno to BillingsHospital where the surgery was performedand then return him to Manteno. No recordof the surgery was placed in the patient’sfile, nor was there ever any indication madein any portion of the patient’s files or re¬cords that such patient received any sur¬gery or medical assistance. The fact thatthe patient disappeared for several daysand had an adrenal-ectomy performed uponhim went completely undocumented in anyportion of the patient’s file, but was placedin secret files known only to the administra¬tion at Manteno, to the team of University ofChicago physicians apparently supervisedby an uralogist < sic) Dr. Charles Higgins,M.D. (sic} and by officials of the U.S. De¬partment of Health, Education and Welfarewhich assisted in funding the research. Thefact that these records were and are secretwas potentially harmful to many patients in¬asmuch as scores of patients were removedfrom the back wards and placed in aftercarefacilities in the late 60’s and early 70’s, andwithout knowledge of the surgery, aftercarefacilities could have neglected to insure thatthe patients received proper medication inwhich case the patients could have died.5. Once an individual has his adrenalingland removed, that person will suffer froman artificial Addison’s disease and must re¬ceive Cortizone to supplement the hormonesthat the adrenalin gland would otherwise se¬crete. If the individual does not receive thecortizone. he or she. in ail probability, willdie.6. Upon belief and information the Peti¬tioner has been told that all records involv¬ing the adrenal-eetomies were not placed inany of the patient’s files but were placed ei¬ther in the records of the physicians fromthe University of Chicago who did the sur¬gery and in a separate room at the MantenoMental Health Center. It is the further beliefand understanding of the Petitioner thatthese records still exist at the Manteno Men¬tal Health Center in a basement room.7. In the 1950’s and 1960’s when the sur¬gery was performed, the patients were auto¬matically declared incompetent when theywere placed in DMHDD facilities and hencewere unable to give informed consent for thesurgery. Moreover, upon belief and infor¬mation consent to these surgeries was notgiven by any other indivividuals.8. As Acting Public Guardian, the Plain¬tiff has the responsibility to move in the ap¬propriate Courts to be appointed in any casewhere it appears a guardian is required.The information concerning adrenal-ecto-mies which the Defendants have secreted isinformation which is required for the Plain¬ tiff for an adequate determination of his ser¬vices.9. The above surgery violated the EighthAmendment right of the individual wards ofDMHDD to be free from cruel and unusualpunishment, their Fifth and FourteenthAmendment right to the due processes of thelaw insofar as adequate process and protec¬tions are concerned as well as to preventthem from being involved in surgical pro¬cesses which were and are shocking to theconscience.10. The above surgery violated the wards’statutory rights as protected by the IllinoisMental Health Code and other provisions ofIllinois Statutes still in existence insofar asthe surgery was performed without ade¬quate consent being given.11. The secreting of such files preventsthe Plaintiff from executing his duties asguardian and advocate and, as such, vio¬lates provisions of Article I, Section 8 of the1979 Mental Health and Developmental Dis¬abilities Confidentiality Act, as well as thedue process clause of the U.S. and IllinoisConstitutions.Relief Requested12. The Plaintiff asks that this Court entera order pursuant to Section 8 of Article I ofthe 1979 Mental Health and DevelopmentalDisabilities Confidentiality Act mandatingthat the Defendants must place all appro¬priate records concerning adrenal ectomiesinto each patient’s respective DMHDD per¬sonal file or folder and to then make the filesavailable to the Plaintiff and to the MentalHealth Advocacy Commission or its desig¬nee13. The Plaintiff asks that this Court pur¬suant to Section 57.1 of the Illinois CivilPractice Act issue a judgment declaringthat the acts of the as yet unknown and un¬named Defendants were and are in violationof the constitutional and statutory rights ofthe wards upon whom such surgery was per¬formed.14. The Petitioner seeks an Order enjoin¬ing the Defendant, his employees andagents from destroying, altering or in otherways defacing any records, reports, con¬tracts. or any other material or recordswhich would indicate the extent of such sur¬gery. the patients upon whom it was per¬formed, the reasons for such surgery andany other drug records which would indi¬cate what drugs were given to the patientsbefore, during and after surgery andwhether or not the proper steroids and cor¬tizone medicines were, in fact, given to pa¬tients upon whom such surgery was per¬formed.11, The Plaintiff respectfully asks thatthis Court order that ail the records alludedto in paragraph 10 above be immediatelyforwarded to the Petitioner for his perusal.12. The Plaintiff respectfully asks thatthis Court enter any other such relief as itdeems fit and appropriate.777 ~ $97? tS89E1 ■ —Text of University statement issued Wednesday.Following is the University statement asdelivered Wednesday by Vice-President forPublic Affairs D.J.R. Bruckner:In the past couple of days the acting publicguardian of Cook County, in a petition filedin the Circuit Court and in many statementsmade to the news media, has made seriousaccusations against the University ofChicago, physicians on its medical staff andin particular against a very distinguisheddoctor who is a member of the Universityfaculty.The exaggerations and misstatements cir¬culated are so many, and so confused that ithas taken a day or so for us to check throughour records to see whether any of them hasany basis in fact.Presumably his reference to surgery per¬formed on mental patients at BillingsHospital refers to six cases. The surgerywas performed in 1951. In each case, thesurgery was intended to improve the condi¬tion of the patient, whether it was to inducea remission of cancer or to improve apsychotic state.All six cases were fully reported in greatdetail in an article in The American Journalof Psychiatry in July, 1958. The author of thearticle was Dr. Nathaniel S. Apter, who is aphysician and a psychiatrist, and who waschairman of the University’s Department ofPsychiatry from 1950 to 1954. A copy of thearticle is appended to this statement forvour information.As Dr. Apter reports there, two of the sixpatients had cancer. At the time it wasknown that removal of the adrenal glandfrom persons with certain types of cancer,followed by administration of the drug cor¬tisone, would result in a slowing or remis¬sion of the cancer and in a longer life for thepatient. Dr. Charles Huggins operated onthese two patients, removing the adrenalglands. One, a woman with breast cancerwhich had metastasized, survived for sixyears after the operation. The second, aman with prostate cancer which hadmetastasized, died seven years after thesurgery — not from the cancer which wascontrolled, but from heart failure.The four other patients Dr. Apter reportson were schizophrenic. His report outlinescompletely the bilateral adrenalectomiesperformed on them in the effort to improvetheir conditions, and on the follow-up studieshe had done in the next six years. Three ofthese patients are still alive, two in nursinghomes and one in Manteno State Hospital.Dr. Apter’s report speaks for itself, but wewould add that the surgery and the follow-upcare he describes are in the best tradition of medicine. The purpose of the procedures inevery case was the effort to improve thelives of the patients and every correct pro¬cedure was followed — including the obtain¬ing of consents from the nearest relativesfor the operations.The acting public guardian has beenquoted as saying that from 25 to 100 patientsmay have been operated on during the 1950sand 1960s. As far as we know, the six casesreported on in the Apter article are the totaldone at Billings Hospital — all in 1951, notthroughout two decades. Of the six patients,including the two who had cancer, five werefrom Manteno.To deal now with some of the specificallegations Mr. Murphy has publicized:—His court petition says “there was, noris, no indication that an adrenalectomy hadanything to do with an individual with amental disease.” This is not true. As Dr.Apter’s article reports, it was believed atthe time that such an operation could im¬prove the condition of a patient with certainmental disorders.—He says the University was actually do¬ing research on the connection betweenadrenalin and cancer. In fact that researchhad already been done before 1950 in otherresearch centers, and its results were well-known.—He alleges that patients were removedfrom Manteno to the University, operatedon and then returned to Manteno withoutany indication on their records that anadrenalectomy had been performed.* This isnot true. The patients operated on at theUniversity were kept in the University’shospital for six months after the operationsand the University assumed the obligationto supply them with the necessary cortisonetreatments for the rest of their lives. In factDr. Apter has kept in touch with the surviv¬ing patients to this day. Not only were thepatients’ treatments not kept secret, butthey were summarized, as we pointed out, ina learned journal.—He refers to the Department of Health.Education and Welfare as having funded the“research.” In fact, the study of the six pa¬tients was supported by grants from privateorganizations (see Dr. Apter’s article).—He alleges that there was ho informedconsent. In fact, there was. The consent wassought and obtained from members of thepatients’ families when the patientsthemselves were declared incompetent.—He alleges that proper provisions werenot made for continuing treatment. This isfalse. Monitoring the care of these patientshas been continuous since the operations.Perhaps most harmful is the languageMurphy to step upinvestigationfrom 1At Wednesday’s hearing before JudgeO’Malley on the temporary restrainingorder, Grischke said Murphy was attempt¬ing to use the order to question the IDMH’sintegrity. Murphy said, “The fact that they(the records) were not in the patients’ filesis an indication of why I am worried.”The initial discoveries of the adrenalecto¬mies were made by Murphy on a visit toManteno. Subsequent discussions ledMurphy to an article in the American Jour¬nal of Psychiatry (Volume 115, 1958) by Dr.Nathaniel Apter, head of the University’sdepartment of psychiatry between 1950 and1954. The article describes research done bythe University “to examine the general hy¬pothesis that andrenocortical activitieshave etiological importance in the develop¬ment of some schizophrenic reactions.” Thepaper is concerned with eight mentally dis¬turbed patients who were studied intensive¬ly at Billings. Bilateral andrenalectomieswere performed on six of the patients byHuggins, according to the article, and theremaining two patients were given-the samemedication as those who underwent sur-gerv. The paper concluded that “Bilateraladrenalectomy does not significantly influ¬ence the course of chronic schizophreniccpatients nor does the procedure followed byan adequate replacement therapy interferewith the potentialities for remissive or re¬versible states.”Dr. Marvin Schwarz, consultant to the of¬fice of the public guardian and a practicingpsychiatrist, said Apter’s research designwas poor with no possibility of yielding anytype of results.Schwarz also said adreanalectomies werenever proven tools in the treatment of schi¬zophrenia. The patients in the experimentwere operated on in order to see if schizo-phernia could be reduced by adreanalecto¬mies. But no prior research on the applica¬bility of the procedure was done, saidSchwarz.While the complaint alleges that no in¬formed consent was sought of any relativesor otherjndividuals connected to the pa¬tients, Apter’s article says he received con¬sent from close relatives of four of the pa¬tients. Murphy says even if this were true acourt order would have been necessary toperform irreversible surgery even in 1951.i Court decisions in the 1920’s made any suchsurgery without court order improper, ac¬cording to Murphy.) quoted in the press as Mr. Murphy’s thatthese patients were used as “guinea pigs.”In each case the surgery was performedwith the best medical intent of curing andhelping the patient.Whatever his motives, we can only ex¬press dismay at the conduct of Mr. Murphyin making the statements and accusationshe has made. He never made any inquiriesof the University about records, patients, socalled experiments, studies or personnel.We are accustomed to cooperating withlegitimate inquirers and we regularlyanswer requests for information.We deplore Mr. Murphy’s methods whichgive publicity to allegations that have notbeen tested by inquiry or supported bysubstantive evidence and that may do graveand underserved harm to individual reputa¬tions, as well as to institutions.Photo.

Peter Adels Letters to the Editorc y.:-The possible fate of the Pub re¬ported in today’s Maroon is a goodexample of the disasterous conse¬quences of post-Cambodia studentpolitical apathy. The arguments ad¬vanced by the proponents of the billin question are patently absurd.They are based on observations ofmisbehavior among a small numberof immature suburbanites. Theytake no account of the very differentexperience of the city of Chicago inthe last few years, of that of severalother states in the last several de¬cades, and of that of many Europeancountries since the Middle Ages.They run counter to the general prin¬ciple of American democracy, thatthe misdeeds of a few members ofany particular social group do notjustify punitive action against all theothers And they are manifestlycover-ups for the irrational anti¬youth prejudices that the proponentsunfortunately share with much ofback-woods America.Actually, there is a much morepowerful argument in favor of thebill. Ail other groups in our societyfight back when attacked: business¬men. labor unions. Latinos, school¬teachers. etc. The only group thatdoes not defend itself is the 18-21year old citizens. It has been over ayear since the County started ha¬rassing them. It has been almost ayear since the city threw them out ofpackage stores. And it has beensome three months since their ene¬mies both in the city council and inthe General Assembly have beenseeking to deprive them of still morerights. I'm over 50; and 1 would beinconvenienced by these legislativeenactments only to the extent of notbeing able to bar hop with my sons,of giving up my custom of invitingstudents to Jimmie's, and of observ¬ing more rigorously the Berlin Wallbetween generations. But for thoseimmediately affected, the conse¬quences will be far graver. An im¬portant campus institution will bedestroyed; and student life will beeven more confined within the wallsof the University.

Butno; they sit back and take it.

In various states, counties,cities and suburban areas, we finddifferent age limits, seating re¬quirements. Sunday blue laws, andother regulations.

You may know ETS manugactures SATs,LSATs, GREs and GMATs. With these tests alone, ETS in¬fluences the educational and career opportunities ofmillions of people. But the power of ETS does not begin orend with those tests. ETS markets 299 different tests. ETStests are used to determine entrance to over 60 occupa¬tions including firefighters, actuaries, policemen, realestate brokers, sailors, teachers, gynecologists,engineers, and auto mechanics. ETS test results are thestandards of access to some of the most powerful profes¬sions: Foreign Service officers, New York stockbrokers,lawyers in over 40 states, CIA agents. Two million elemen¬tary students take ETS tests, and ETS is even developingways to test infants. ETS helps determine who will beeligible for financial aid and how much they will receive.The financial information ETS obtains on nearly twomillion families is more detailed than a mortgage applica¬tion or an IRS return. ETS consultants and trainees helpshape education and labor allocation policy in scores ofcountries, including Singapore, Brazil, and Saudi Arabia.And ETS has test centers in 120 countries.In thirty years, probably 90 million people have hadtheir schooling, jobs, prospects for advancement, andbeliefs in their own potential directly shaped by the quietbut pervasive power of ETS.What is the Educational Testing Service? How has itcentralized so much power? Is it accountable to anyone,or anything? Should your opportunities be so influencedby ETS’ standards of aptitude or intelligence?Despite its massive influence, few people question ETS.Students may want to tear up test forms in moments offrustration, but few of us think of challenging the corpora¬tion that makes the tests. We will soon release a lengthyreport on ETS, written by Allan Nairn, which we hope willhelp people understand, and question, the unique andunregulated power of this corporation.Indeed, ETS is, in non-dollar ways, a large corporation.It has more customers per year than GM and Ford com¬bined. Despite its non-profit status, it declares roughly amillion dollars in “non-profits” each year. This money isplowed back into corporate expansion and maintainingthe ETS estate, which includes a 400 acre headquarters inPrinceton. New Jersey, a $250,000 home for the president,William Turnbull, and a three million dollarhotel/conference center — all built with student test fees.Its revenue from test fees enabled ETS to double in sizeevery five years from 1948 to 1972, a rate of growth fasterthan IBM.ETS’s sales ana near monopoly power, combined withits privileged legal status as a non-profit corporation,make it unprecedented in corporate history. ETS is ex¬empt from federal and state income taxes, is effectivelybeyond the reach of many anti-trust laws, and has nostockholders. ETS escapes the restraints governing othercorporations because it is an “educational” institution.The power of ETS is massive, as even one ETS ex¬ecutive conceded. “No matter what they try to tell youhere about how we really don’t have much power,” hesaid, “we know we do. We know w'e’re the nation’sgatekeeper.” This gatekeeper can determine who enters college, graduate and professional schools, as well asmany occupations and professions. Is that powerlegitimate?ETS defends its role as the gatekeeper by claiming ithas developed the “science of mental measurement.” butas our report will argue, the tests measure nothing morethan how you answered a few multiple-choice questions.The correlation between SAT scores and first-year gradesin college, for example, is often lower than the correlationbetween the test scores and the income of the test taker’sparents. At best, standardized tests measure thespecialized skill of test-taking, but they do not measurekey determinants of success such as writing and researchskill, ability to make coherent arguments, creativity,motivation, stamina, judgment, experience, or ethics.ETS not only influences how institutions judge in¬dividuals. however; it also influences how individualsjudge themselves. As Nairn says, “A false self-estimateor image is instilled in the mind of the individual whoreceives a standardized test score. For although thescores are significantly determined by social class, he istold they are objective, scientific measures of the in¬dividual.”Moreover, test takers are subject to numerous in¬justices. ranging from incorrect scoring of tests, to latereporting of applicant information, to secret evaluation ofgrades and test scores — and they have no recourse.We must begin to examine the examiners.There is a growing movement to reform and restructurethe testing industry. In New York, Ohio. Texas, and other states, student-run Public Interest Research Groups(PIRGs) have introduced “Truth in Testing” legislationin their state legislatures. This legislation would forceETS and other testing companies to disclose test questionsand answers, and all studies and data on the tests; itwould also require companies to keep information on ap¬plicants confidential. Disclosing test answers wouldenable students to contest disputed answers, and thuseliminate much of the mystery surrounding the tests. ETShas said it is willing to release 99% of its test data. But.Nairn says, the bulk of this 99% is the material providedby the test-takers themselves — name, social securitynumber, etc. Nairn says it is crucial to disclose that lastone percent, as it includes ETS’s extrapolations from theinformation provided by test-takers — such as predictionsof future academic success.The testing reform movement has othe facets. JesseJackson is organizing around the issue of the ETS Na¬tional Teacher Examinations which have systematicallyeliminated qualified black applicants from teaching jobsThe FTC has apparently found, contrary to ETS claims,that certain kinds ol prep or cram courses can raise testscores — but the report has been withheld at this time.And several members of Congress have called for an in¬vestigation of the testing industry.Students now have opportunities to challenge the testmakers.Individuals interested in this issue, or in sponsoringTruth in Testing legislation, can contact Ed Hanley at ouroffice at P.0 Box 19312, Washington.

Tests areThis is the final installment of a two-partseries dealing with United States v. Pro¬gressive.By Bruce Lewenstein"My main concern at this point is the be¬havior of the government tn selectively de¬classifying information.” Theodore Pos¬tal, a physicist at Argonne NationalLaboratory, said last week. Postol wascommenting on the conflict between TheProgressive magazine and the U S gov¬ernment over publication of an article de¬scribing the design principles of a hydro¬gen bomb.Postal, who believes a breach in nationalsecurity resulted from government state¬ments in the case, characterized the gov¬ernment's action as '‘folly of the highestorder.” He and other scientists are draft¬ing a letter to Congressional leaders aboutproblems concerning information Classifi¬cation.In a friend-of-the-court brief filed in theinitial hearings on the case. Jeremy J.Stone said. "There is not the slightestdoubt in our minds that overclassificationis the normal rule in government.. , How¬ever. it is not always easy to determinewhat details would permit which individu¬als — or which organizations or govern¬ments — to determine what (information),and the control of a large bureaucracy isnot easy.”Stone is the director of the Federation ofAmerican Scientists (FAS). *Postol said he is worried by the possibleinfluence of the government bureaucracy."People with enormous bureaucraticpower,” said Postal, "who can state thatthis is classified.’ have a great influenceon policy decisions in this country Peoplein the classified community can do a greatdeal to mold public opinion because theywon t answer important questions.” Hesaid. “They can control issues that affectthe whole world.”Postol also complained that "thereseems to he a double standard for people atdifferent levels. < nuclear scientists atLawrence Laboratory in Livermore, Cali¬fornia > are angry that they have to bequiet, but Rosengren (Jack Rosengren. aDepartment of Energy consultant) canshoot his mouth off.” *In a statement announcing that it is join¬ing the case as defense attorneys for Pro¬ gressive editors Erwin Knoll and SamuelDay, Jr., the American Civil LibertiesUnion < ACLU) said. "So long as people be¬lieve the information is secret, they will belulled into a false sense of security. Hope¬fully, the government will be forced to de¬velop more realistic strategies to avoid nu¬clear proliferation.”"The fact that the government has dis¬closed that this stuff is accurate is legallyirrelevant.” said ACLC lawyer ChuckSans. "’The Progressive’s position is thatbecause (the information) is already pub¬lic. no harm has occurred.”The allegation that harm will inevitablyresult is “not enough” to ensure the gov¬ernment's success in preventing publica¬tion of the article, said Law School asso¬ciate professor Geoftrey R. Stone, “At theleast, they have to show more immediateharm.”If the information in the article is al¬ Science, parts of the Morland article "de¬scribe very qualitatively the Teller-Ulamidea which led to the first successful Hy¬drogen-bomb explosions by the UnitedStates .:. This secret' has been regardedfor over 25 years as highly classified. Yetthere is by now enough information in openpublications that a capable physicist coulddeduce the basic idea for himself.”Postol said he thinks he stumbled ontothe Teller-L'lam principle after readingMorland's article. But he thinks that an ar¬ticle by ”father of the H-bomb” EdwardTeller in the Encyclopedia Americana didas much to inform him as Morland’s arti¬cle did.When Teller and mathemaician Stanis-taw Ulam discovered the principle, "it wasa brilliant deduction.” said Postol. Now.particularly with the Teller article, "it’snot so difficult.”Publication of the Teller article mavsays,“Help keepRed Crossready.” University affiliated Argonne National Laboratory, where physicist Theodore Postal worksFriday, April 13, 1979ready in the public domain, said Stone,"I’m incredulous that the government hasreacted as it has. To the extent that the ar¬ticle is in the public domain, the govern¬ment has no case. There must be some¬thing more than that.”The potential development of an H-bombby foreign countries is among the centralissues in the government’s legal case. Thegovernment contends that release of thedesign principles would cause "direct, im¬mediate, and irreparable damage to ournation,” by inhibiting and negating U S. ef¬forts to prepare a non-proliferation policyfor nuclear weapons.The Progressive agrees — to an extent.“The article probably has accelerated de¬velopment of a bomb by other countries,”said Day, managing editor of the maga¬zine and former editor of the University-based Bulletin of Atomic Scientists. “Ourguess is by about 12 or 18 hours. All we’vedone is a little libraryThe design principles are already In thepublic domain, The Progressive believesIf the magazine, with its “pathetically li¬mited resources,” could get the informa¬tion, then so could any foreign power orterrorist, organization, said Knoll inScien< * —According to a friend-of-the-court brieffiled by Hugh E DeWitt a scientist atLawrence Laboratory - and quoted in have been a breach of security, said Pos¬tal, but Morland’s article — which hecalled mere "journalist’s speculation” —would not create a breach of security.If the information is already in the open,asks the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists in aneditorial in their forthcoming May issue,“what is the point of restraining the publi¬cation of a plausible H-bomb design?“The problem is one of buying time. Theobjective of the United States’ non¬proliferation policy in 1979 should be tohold back, for as long as possible, the un¬controlled spread of these lethal technolo¬gies and, more important, explosive mate¬rials. The objective is to strengthen thepolitical and social edifices of restraintand international controls and to build upthe organizations that may eventuallycope with the heretofore irresistiblehQMSihrinstincts for self-annihilation.”Day disagrees and believes the articlemust be published. “The point is that theAmerican people need not be intimidated”by the government’s assertions that someinformation is. or shoud be, classified, hesaid. “Our position is that the public needsto know as much as necessary to under¬stand H-bomb technology.“It’s like the auto industry—to under¬stand why it’s such a big part of our econ¬omy, you have to understand the way anauto is put together and how that leads to just a way of getting information thatthese people are putting out so'freely. Ifyou can get the information without thetest, that s even better. It’s just porno¬graphy for anyone to put out details of howto make a bomb. ” *Wohlstetter said there are many incon¬sistencies in the government’s classifica¬tion policy: some things are overclassitied, other underclassified. He mentioned,but would not cite specifically ( “because Idon’t want to make the search any easi¬er”), recent articles on civilian fusion ef¬forts that were cleared for publication bythe Atomic Energy Commission (AEC).He considers the clearances “a mistake injudgment.”Worried that the government has astrong enough case to succeed in their ef¬forts at prior restraint of The Progressive,some members of the media (including theWashington Post) have called for The Pro¬gressive to voluntarily withdraw the arti¬cle, thus preventing a Supreme Courtshowdown in which a dangerous precedentrestricting the rights of the press might beset.Day responds angrily to criticism fromother members, of the press. “I’m sur¬prised that some have said it is a terriblecase.

At this stage, ignorant of this genre of art. 1 imitated ner.4The renovated Museum of Contemporary ArtText and Photographs by Charles StoneIn 1969, the conceptual artist Christo wrapped theentire Museum of Contemporary Art with canvas. En¬titled “Wrap In Wrap Out", it was the first building tobe decorated in such a fashion. It was hailed as ex¬traordinary. The museum was catapulted into thespotlight of modern art and it set a precedent of origi¬nality that would never be relinquished. The museum'srecent expansion and renovation is the culmination ofthis approach to art.Modern art, they say. compels its audience to com¬pletely reorganize and re-evaluate its criteria. But ex¬cept for the exhibit entitled “Wall Pointing”, the newmuseum offers no new and extraordinary experi¬ence.Wall Painting is just that. It is the first of a series ofexhibitions dealing with “artists’ installations thatuse the wall as ground without conventional interme¬diary support." An illustrated catalogue accompa¬nying the exhibition describes some of the precedentsestablished by other people who have painted walls.Some of the issues investigated are “perception, color,surface, measurement, boundaries, flatness, brushstroke, and the process of painting itself." Clearly, thewall painters have redefined the nature of the wall.But the wall itself is only half of the artwork. Theissue of audience response is equally important.The interaction between viewer and artwork has A Simple Artbeen redefined. Unlike traditional artworks that hangon the wall and maintain a distance between theviewer and the art, the new artwork sprawls aboutthe floor or confronts the viewer in an equally revolu¬tionary manner. And instead of depicting the tradi¬tional figures and objects, and instead of packing theartwork with elements that relate to one another, themodern artist rigorously avoids such relations. Themodern artwork portrays as little as possible, hencethe label Minimalism. The most refined have succeed¬ed in portraying nothing whatever. The museum's WallPainting exhibit attains this level of refinement.Until I saw this exhibit the subtleties of Minimalismeluded me. The exhibit is so subtle, in fact, that it tookme over an hour to realize that I was in the presenceof art. 1 was standing in a large room with white walls.The ceiling was also white. One wall was of a slightlydifferent hue, and it appeared to be falling over. All ofthe ceiling lights were pointing toward the wall. Asmall plaque on the wall said "Do Not Touch". Awoman walked up to the wall and perceived ft. Only-after this had passed did 1 comprehend the nature ofthe wall.This particular work is by Lucio Pozzi. The*plaquesays that the wall is white paint spread over museumdust. Pozzi constructs "walls within existing galleries,relating painting to human scale with large-sizeworks". The tbeorj^ip *UtfltLyetnever thought of a wall as "ground without conven¬ tional intermediary support", nor did I ever compre¬hend the significance of museum dust.But after my perceptions were refined, the furtherperception of the wall became totally natural. Thew-all is big, thus calling to mind the human form. Thewall is also built at an angle that impinges upon theroom. When the wall is approached it becomes clearthat it interacts with the viewer, for it appears that atany moment the wall could fall on him. thus constrict¬ing his sense of space. I continued to observe the ladyand the wall.The uniformity of the wall creates problems for theviewer that are independent of the wall's role as po¬tential assailant. Since the wall is painted entirelywhite, there are no obvious elements within it thatinteract. The wall is nothing. Thus in order to be appre¬ciated. the viewer must endow that lack of internalinteraction with an independent meaning that hebrings to the wall. The viewer must refashion nothingso that it becomes something. The wall demands scru¬pulous concentration and ingenuity.1 noticed that the lady walked all the way up to thewall. She appeared to push her nose against it. Sheturned her head sideways and viewed the wall'slength and height and read the plaque. At this stage,ignorant of this genre of art. I imitated her.On the surface of the wall are thousands of dust' Wi ,ti tstqA t»c«H nooi6AA o» ..qin,} 1$ ^ a! W £ ':f i,:H B JUpon further contemplation the complexity of therole of the bolts as mediators of linear conflict be¬came more apparent.from 9motes. When I turned myhead sideways they went away, andwhen I turned my head toward the pla¬que, and if I concentrated. I could see myshadow against the wall. I twisted mybody in various contortions and createdliterally hundreds of different artworks.The artwork was particularly responsiveto this sort of interaction, but of course Ialso realized that the various artworksproduced were due to my personal inter¬pretations. For the lady, the artworkwas something entirely different. Thisartwork thus reveals that any attemptto define it in the limited terms of sub¬ject and meaning are misguided if not fu¬tile. Nothing can be everything or noth¬ing depending upon one’s perspective.With this in mind I felt prepared to expe¬ rience another artwork.Robert Ryman’s contribution to theWall Painting exhibit is a series of whitesquares bolted to the walls. Each ap¬pears to be exactly the same, but as withPozzi, Ryman is fabulously subtle.Ryman’s white squares “continue hissystematic examination of the funda¬mentals of painting — brush stroke, sur¬face and edges.” Indeed, they are“unique, environmental works of art.” Ihave never seen a mature artist grap¬pling with the fundamentals of art insuch a fashion. Each square is mounted ateye level, and each has four edges. Ateach corner there is a bolt that fastensthe square to the wall. The bolts act aspoints of union where the lines changecourse at precisely ninety degrees. Theydefine the nature of the square and call attention to the points of maximum lin¬ear conflict. I could not perceive all ofthe bolts and all of the squares at thesame time. When I was far enough awayto see all the squares, the bolts fadedinto the uniformity of the white back¬ground. The bolts are painted white.Upon further contemplation the com¬plexity of the role of the bolts as media¬tors of linear conflict became more ap¬parent. Not only are all of the boltswhite, each square is associated with asubtly varied specie of bolt. In one casethey are hexagon bolts, and in anotherthey are not. I believe that one of thesquares is fastened with alien wrenchbolts. This called to mind the shape ofthe alien wrench key, which happened tobe the shape of the exhibit, thus creat¬ing an entirely new perception andyielding infinite audience involvement.As I viewed the artworks, and viewedthe people viewing the artworks, I no¬ticed that people didn’t look at the artworks very long. In fact, many peoplesimply walked in and out of every roomwith no apparent emotional involve¬ment. They were missing something.The apparent lack of spectator involve¬ment is a paradox inherent in the art-form. When the people appear to ignorethe artwork, they are in fact compre¬hending it instantaneously. People havebecome so accustomed to this mode ofunderstanding that the process of inter¬pretation has become synonymous withperception. Thus the new artwork liber¬ates the traditional perception of time.Instead of plodding about an art galleryfor hours on end, and being puzzled andfrustrated by the continuous assertion ofmeaning, the modern art audience may simply breeze through the gallery, in¬stantly comprehending the blank wallsand blank squares whose meanings areineluctably altered by such intimate fac¬tors as pinching shoes or the consump¬tion of indigestible lunches.Despite my new understanding of mod¬ern art, perhaps I have not done justiceto the Wall Paintings or the Museum.Not only does the new museum chal¬lenge our perceptions of space and ourinteractions with plaster walls coveredwith paint and dust, the new museumchallenges our perceptions of our per¬ceptions. All of the artworks interact.Added to the spatial dimension is the au¬ditory element. As part of its continuingcommitment to the development of allthe arts, the museum has installed “athirty-speaker permanent sound sculp¬ture by Max Neuhaus in the fifty-footstairwell of the West Wing. The sculp¬ture, constantly emitting low-frequencysine waves, articulates the space aural¬ly.”Not only does the space threaten tofall upon us, it confronts us writh contin¬uous sounds that call into question theusefulness of our brains.This approach to art is the very heartof the new Museum of ContemporaryArt. New subtleties abound. Art is lifeand life is art, and as they say, it is whatyou make it. The formality of under¬standing can finally be eliminated.The Museum of Contemporary Art is lo¬cated at 237 East Ontario. Hours: Tues-day-Saturday 10a.m.-5p.m. Sunday,noon-5p.m. Closed Monday.

SPENCER PARSONS"Where Christ is Known"Selected Short Subjects From An Uncommon CriticCelebrations and Attacks by Irving HoweCelebrations and Attacks: Thirty Yearsof Literary and Cultural Commentary byIrving Howe (Horizon Press. $14.95)By Richard KayeAs the author of a history of East Euro¬pean Jews in America, a book on LeonTrotsky, critical studies of Thomas Hardyand William Faulkner, a critical biogra¬phy of Sherwood Anderson, a history ofthe American Communist Party, a studyof literary modernism, and several col¬lections of essays, and as one of thecountry’s leading democratic socialists.Irving Howe has one of the most diverseof intellectual and cultural backgroundsof American literary critics. Howe hasfrequently been called a “Marxist crit¬ic”, but this term is as inadequate at de¬scribing Howe’s political writings as it isat explaining his literary ones. One needonly look at Howe’s latest book, Cele¬brations and Attacks, to see that in thiscollection of his shorter writings Howe istoo much an individualist and too impa¬tient with the notion of the critic as adogmatic theorist to evaluate literatureor culture according to some precon¬ceived Marxist plan.In attacking Leslie Fiedler’s Love andDeath in the American Novel for its ar¬rogantly pushy generalizations aboutAmerican literature, Howe pinpoints theone gift essential to the good critic; “thewillingness to subordinate his ownschemes and preconceptions to the actu¬alities of a particular novel or poem, thelove or generosity which persuades acritic to see work in its own terms andnot to bend it to his personal or ideologi¬cal needs.”There are many Irving Howes visible inthis varied collection of often frustrat-ingly brief pieces. There is Irving Howethe Jewish socialist, proud of the “tragi¬comic intensities” of his parents ghettolife and therefore deeply upset over the“dreary slackness” of middle class subur¬ban Jewish life, the setting depicted sobrilliantly in the novels of Philip Rothwhich Howe objects to for their vulgar¬ization of the Jewish experience. Thereis Howe the anti-Stalinist, who casti¬gates Lillian Heilman’s Scoundrel Time asa dangerously naive apologia for thosewho supported Stalin and consequentlyruined the possibilities for serious radi¬calism in the United States.Celebrations and Attacks has no com¬ mon theme running through its pages,only a common voice, and so in one piecewe may find Howe decrying RobertFrost’s popularization of his own poetry,and in another we come across Howe’stribute to Norman Thomas as he reviewsa biography of the socialist politician.This sort of literary-political smorgas¬bord can be pleasurable; it is filling if notnutritious. But there’s always the nag¬ging reminder that the coherence of Irv¬ing Howe’s approach to literature, cul¬ture, and politics is not in this collection,but in his other, earlier works such asPolitics and the Novel and Decline of theNew.To some extent, it is true that Howe'ssocialistic vision of a collectivist futuresurfaces in his literary criticism, andoften in subtle ways. Howe’s essay, “TheCult of Salinger”, criticizes the reclusiveauthor’s followers as “the academicyoung: those well-scrubbed boys andgirls who have inherited the materialgood of the world and find themselvesstirred neither to conquest nor rebel¬lion, but instead remain bright, ‘cool’,and estranged.’’ The “inner-emigration”that Howe sees Salinger's readers andcharacters as indulging in must inevit¬ably take on a negative meaning in Howe’s view, whereas another critic —perhaps one who values the individual’sinner search more than Howe the vision¬ary collectivist does — would see Sa¬linger's characters as lost Westerners insearch of something like an Eastern med¬itation (remember the saintly SeymourGlass’s love for Zen Buddhism in RaiseHigh the Roof Beam. Carpenters?).And one cannot help but feel thatHowe's dismissal of the French NewNovel (in his review of Robbe-Grillet'sThe Voyeur) is a reaction against that movement’s disavowal of the notion ofthe novel as a political or moral state¬ment. Howe sometimes ends up beingmost persuasive and most imaginativelyengaged when he deals with writerswith whom he has a close affinity. Thereview-essays on writers such as the self-described “old-red” Doris Lessing, the“plebian novelist” James Hanley and therelatively obscure Hungarian writer,George Konrad (Howe takes great painsto tell his readers about lesser-known,talented authors) are much more lucidthan Howe’s laudatory essay on LionelTrilling, a man who seems so differentfrom Howe in literary sensibility. It’s an¬other story entirely, however, whenHowe discusses the critic Edmund Wil¬son’s letters and claims that, accordingto Wilson, to be a serious writer, “youhad to fight every inch of the way; fightagainst the lures of the world, againstvulgar popularization, against silly fads,against academic somnolence, againstelite snobbism, and perhaps most of all,fight against your own weariness andweakness.” Here one can almost seeHowe's nod of assent as two critics standin perfect agreement.There is a certain self-imposed limita¬tion in these pieces. Those that can trulybe called long essays are probably themost successful — “Literature and Liber¬alism” and “Strangers”, a reflection onthe early experience of Jewish-Ameri—can writers. Throughout Celebrationsand Attacks Irving Howe illustrates H. L.Mencken’s idea of the critic as an artistrather than a pedagogue; not a school¬master, with an insistent ideology, but“an uncommon personality in free func¬tion.”In Ernest Hemingway:Victim of his own anti-intellectual pos-jre, he saw himself getting into theing — all the world, at least all litera-are, is a prizefight — with Rimbaud andtendhal and Tolstoi, holding his ownrith some but not with others.

The turn on Drexel.” Wells calls this one “A good advertisement for Cali¬fornia wines.”Frieda and Dennis at their birthday party. “Frieda and Dennis”Frank: “Do you think you’llend up here?” Photographs of the siegeby John Wellsby David Miller“Do you think you’ll end up here?” asked Frank in his tiny flop-house room onWest Madison Street. Without waiting for John Wells to reply, he continued:“Don’t tell me you won’t.”Wells, a twenty-eight year-old MA student in Art, heard these words early thisyear when he photographed the people and places just west of the Loop. Thesephotographs form half of Wells’s State of Siege, an exhibit of seventy-five blackand white photographs which closed yesterday at Midway Studios. The otherhalf includes photographs Wells made in Moscow and Berlin while in the Army in1976, photographs of Frank Collin’s group of American neo-Nazis, and residentsof a Jewish rest home on the North side.For Wells, the “siege” is a subject matter and a photographic style. Severalphotographs in State of Siege have an obvious militaristic element: Moscow chil¬dren carry a toy gun; American Nazis pose with rifles; a Madison Street bartend¬er points his pistol-shaped cigarette lighter at the camera, Wells, and us. But thesiege metaphor is not exclusively militaristic; it applies as well to elderly Jewsin a rest home. In Wells’s art, the world is a state of siege, and everyone isinvolved in it.Wells’s subjects appear as familiar people, however distant their circum¬stances are from ours. Because few of us visit rest homes, skid row. or Nazi head¬quarters, the view is a privileged one, but it is not remote: these people looklike people we have seen. Wells accompanies the photographs with shorthandwritten captions like “Moscow street crossing with ubiquitous political slo¬ gan,” or “4th floor Frank's room,” “Frank’s provisions,” “His table,” and“Frank.”Wells does not believe in what he sees and hears, but neither does he dis¬believe in it. Instead, it is his intention to show how these various groups ofpeople on the fringes of American society present themselves. He photographsRussians, bums, Nazis, and disinherited, elderly Jews as individuals, and not astypes. For him the elderly are not solely pathetic, and Nazis are not simply dis¬gusting and dangerous. He shows people who seem like us, and with that impres¬sion we can infer that we are like them.Wells is not a social crusader or a reformer, and his art is not revolutionary inthe accepted sense of the term: he hardly documents social evils for the firsttime, and his photographs hardly urge viewers to write to Congressmen ormarch on City Hall. Rather, because he does not view the world as a patheticplace, his photographs are revolutionary only in a personal sense. Living on skidrow, Wells has come to appreciate bums, winos. and tramps. Asked if the peoplethere are unhappy, he said: "Well it’s hard to say. They are sometimes, but theyall know they did it to themselves.” He also speaks respectfully of Frank, whoremains drunk, impoverished, and diseased despite his suburban children's ef¬forts to rehabilitate him. Frank's reason: “I wanna be free. I won’t take ordersfrom anybody.” Wells is not directly interested in Frank’s freedom, but he isinterested in Frank’s understanding of his circumstances.There is no better way to sum up Wells’s accomplishment than to repeat thewords of one of his subjects. When shown a photograph of himself, he said: “GeeI look ugly, but you take good pictures.”The Grey City Journal — Friday. March 13. 1979 — 13 4ft.Michael Cimino’sCritics view The Deer Hunter as everything from a stu<The Deer HunterDirected by Michael CiminoWritten by Deric WashburnWith Robert De Niro, Christopher Walken,John Savage, Meryl Streep, John Cazale. Instead, it is the celebration cby Mark SilvermanThe current group of prominent youngAmerican directors derives its inspiration notso much from traditions of Western narrativeand drama as from classical American cinema.Their films are full of references to their favor¬ite Hollywood films: lines, scenes, situations,and camera movements are lifted bodily fromthe works of the masters and plunked downfor the enjoyment of modern audiences. Un¬fortunately, these directors are almostalways too self-conscious to fashion convinc¬ing fictions of their own. The result is theforced transplant of memorable moments tothe most inhospitable contexts imaginable. Asa result, these directors have not been able todevelop significant styles or thematic con¬cerns of their own; De Palma wants to beHitchcock, Coppola wants to be Welles, Scor¬sese wants to be Minelli, Bogdonavich wantsto be Hawks, and Fassbinder, on his way to theEnglish-language market, wants to be Sirk.Now Michael Cimino, with his second film,emerges as the most ambitious of the bunch:he wants to be John Ford. Unlike his peers,however, Cimino has reworked some of Ford’sclassic themes — those of family and communi¬ty, glory and duty, history and memory — intoa wholly original work of his own.There have been innumerable theories ofthe ‘meaning’ of The Deer Hunter. Critics haveseen it as an examination of male bonding, offrustrated homosexual love, and as a right-wing defense of the Vietnam war. Some re¬gard it as an explication of maleness andheroism, with this particular war servingmerely as a testing ground for courage; somesee it as an examination of the interaction ofthe romantic hero with the larger society inwhich he moves. Many critics, unable or un¬willing to make sense out of the whole, mere¬ly confine themselves to detailed descriptionsof the interactions among the characters. Theimage of Russian roulette inspired much meta¬phorical, even metaphysical, theorizing; onecritic has said it represents what all sides areengaged in in the Vietnam war; another findsit the ultimate test of courage for the protag¬onists.I would like to suggest that The Deer Hunteris ultimately concerned with somethingsimpler, yet more profound, than any of thesetheories would indicate. The Deer Hunter ex¬plores the possibility of the continuity of acommunity — its ability to sustain its valuesand sense of worth — in the face of the mostterrible ordeal imaginable. Despite the parti¬cularization of the community, its experiencesare paradigmatic of the whole nation’s. Thisconcern for communal continuity, and this con¬cern alone, has determined the structure ofThe Deer Hunter.The Deer Hunter is unique among contem¬porary films for its remarkably symetrical nar¬rative, a narrative that divides very neatlyinto three sections, each lasting about an hourof screen time. The first section details theRussian-American blue collar community ofClairton, Pennsylvania, with all its nuances:its institutions, (factory, bar, church, andmeeting hall), its rituals (work and wedding,drinking and hunting), its values, its strengthsand weaknesses, the complete portraits ofand relationships between its main charac¬ters. The second section takes this community,represented by three of its products, Michael(Robert De Niro) Nick (Christopher Walken),and Steven (John Savage), and subjects it tothe horrors of the Vietnam war. The final sec¬ Christopher Walken, Robert De Niro, Chuck Aspegren, John Savage and John Cazale outside the steel millDirector Michael Cimino with Robert De Niro and Meryl Streeption explores the results of that immersion.Cimino has been criticized for making hiscommunity so unique and exotic, so obviouslya subculture, that it fails as a working meta¬phor for America. The opposite is true. Despiteits uniqueness — the men offering toasts in Rus¬sian, the older women wearing traditionalold-world garb — the community thinks of itselfas quintessential^ American. This becomesexplicit in a scene in the Army hospital in Sai¬gon. A doctor, trying to ingratiate himself tothe emotionally ravaged Nick, asks him if hisname is Russian.’ Nick, who can barely re¬member his mother’s name, responds, “No, it’sAmerican.’’ For a country that is used to think¬ing of itself as a nation of immigrants, it isprecisely that. Cimino has also been criticized for not tak¬ing the ‘correct’ position on Vietnam. Presum¬ably, he is being criticized for not wallowingin the fashionable masochism and smug self-righteousness of a film like Coming Home. Butif Cimino had put political speeches — of anykind — into the mouths of his characters, he-would have been false to the milieu that hehas worked so hard to depict. Unlike the en¬counter-groupies of Coming Home, Cimino’sworking class characters are basically inarti-clate; they don’t worry about, nor make stren¬uous efforts, to communicate their feelings —they just feel.Suffice it to say that Cimino never paints thewar as anything but horrible. No matter whatdetails of the war are depicted — peasants caught between the opp<ruptions of Saigon, or tforced participation in Rprison camp — it is alwawar that is emphasized.This attitude is impliecof the film, at StevenGreen Beret, apparentlythe guests, wanders int<character, looking constihas several functions.

This is made clear(again, perhaps too neatly) in Michael’s refus¬al to kill the deer. The refusal is not simply areaction to a surfeit of killing: it is the mark ofthe beginning of a new respect for life, a gen¬uine expansion of Michael's range of feelingthat will enable him to make the gesture thatwill serve to heal the community. Similarly, itis not Michael who is able to pull the triggerwith impunity at the final game of Russianroulette, but the insane Nick. This is only themost conspicuous example of the switch inpersonality that Michael and Nick undergo. Itwill be Michael who ultimately attaches him¬self, through love, to another human being.Perhaps most significant is the reversal, or ex¬change, of attitude toward the hunt. Michaelbelieves that the successful hunting of thedeer requires only one clean shot; Nick's loveof the hunt consists of the way the trees lookin the morning. The attitudes of the obsessiveMichael will soften and humanize; the sensi¬tive Nick, tragically, will come to believe inthe efficacy of ‘one clean shot.’ Only Michaels’love for Nick enables him to pull the trigger ina desperate attempt to somehow shock Nickback to reality; but it is too late, at least forNick.Robert De Niro, John Savage, Rutyara Alda.

The scene is perhaps too pat, tooself-consciously symbolic, but its rhetoricalfunction is still effective: if a member ofAmerica’s most elite fighting unit, a characterwe would expect to be most gung-ho aboutthe war, can only express bitterness regard¬ing it, the moral debacle of the Vietnam warbecomes clear. There is no glory to be foundthere, no testing ground for skill and courage;only disillusionment.The ultimate horror the protagonists en¬counter is the game of Russian roulette forcedupon them while captives of the NLF. Severalcritics have tried to picture this episode as the ultimate test of courage: Michael, they feel,exults in the challenge; being the strongest,he is most able to cope with it. But Michael isonly playing for time and a means of escape;all three men will suffer for the experience.Steven, temporarily reduced to helplessness,and Nick, eventually driven to madness, arethe most conspicuous victims.

Michael takesthe gun away from him and. with one bullet inthe gun. holds it to Stan’s head and pulls thetrigger. The chamber is empty; Michael’sfriends look on in horror, and Michael runsfrom the cabin, unable to face them, himself. The film's ending has been decried as beinga tacked-on political statement, but it is noth¬ing of the kind. The group of friends we havecome to know so well sit stunned around thetable after Nick's funeral. One of them beginshumming God Bless America, and the othersslowly pick it up. But this is not the bombasticjingoism of a Kate Smith; the singing is tenta¬tive and hesitant, wounded and subdued, aquiet reaffirmation of the values of the com¬munity. The singing over, Michael toasts Nick,and the others join in. moved, almost smiling.The implication is that Michael has not toldanyone the true circumstances of Nick's death.He has kept the burden to himself to enablethe community to heal. This ending seems tome to be a direct evocation, brilliantly reima¬gined. of the ending of Ford's Fort Apache. Inthe Ford, a martinet colonel (Henry Fonda) haspushed the Apaches to the brink of war by hismistreatment of them. His callousness soenrages one of his senior officers (JohnWayne) that the officer mutinies, challengingthe colonel to a duel. Fonda places Wayneunder arrest, launches an attack, and getshimself and a good portion of his commandkilled. In the film’s last scene, Wayne, now incommand, tells a press conference only thatthe colonel chose to die with his troop. As heleaves to go out on patrol, he puts on the con¬spicuous hat that the Fonda character hasworn throughout the film. In both films, thecharacter with the highest degree of moral in¬telligence takes on the burden of living a lieso that the community — and. by extension, thenation — can continue intact. This affirmationof the essential worth of the community in theface of death and even disgrace is the centralconcern of The Deer Hunter. The ending, farfrom being tacked on, is one of the most satis¬fying in memory, providing that sense of com¬pleteness and closure that only the best fic¬tion has. -The Deer Hunter is not without flaws. Ci-mino’s use of certain character types — the de¬cadent European, the overbearing ethnicmother — seem facile in the context of the bril¬liantly detailed characterizations he has pro¬vided for all the major roles. More important¬ly, there are several lapses in narrativecontinuity and coherence, and a tendency torely too much on delayed exposition (this isparticularly annoying in the details regardingSteven’s fate). Still, powerful and compelling,original and ambitious. The Deer Hunter is amemorable achievement.Robert De Niro, Christopher Walken and John SavageThe tirey City Journal Friday March 13. 1979 — 15Doc presentsFilm Noir: The ordinary becomes strange and uncannyby Rory McGahanWednesday evenings this quarter DOC filmsis presenting a series on the film noir. No¬toriously difficult to define, the film noir hasbeen seen as a period, a genre, a style, amood, and an attitude. The root of the term,though, is connected with the period immedi¬ately following the second World War. Frenchcritics, seeing a new pervasive character infilms now coming from Hollywood called them‘noir' (black). The source of the term was apervasive darkness in spirit and look; and apessimistic and bitterly cynical attitude ex¬pressed in a radically anti-traditional tech¬nique revelling in extremes of contrast.As the years went on the films becamedarker — so physically dark that there are nomore than a handful of scenes in films like TheAsphalt Jungle and They Live By Night thatcan be called davlit; the vision of life in thesefilms is as pessimistic. At the apex of its devel¬opment, the early-fifties, the film noir fea¬tured morally corrupt, often paranoid charac¬ters and the atmosphere became even moredecidedly fatalistic.The Origins of Film NoirRaymond Chandler andDashiell HammettDuring the thirties, while Hollywood re¬mained aloof from the realities of depressionAmerica, that very harshness of life engen¬dered a response in literature. The ‘hard-boiled' school developed, exemplified in thework of writers such as Raymond Chandler,Dashiell Hammett. Ernest Hemingway, andJames M. Cain. Cultivating a tough, cynicalethos by distancing themselves from ordinaryemotions, the protagonists of these writersplayed out the implications of this narcissisticcode.When Hollywood moved into their sleazymoral realm these writers were ready withset conventions of plot, character, dialogue,and theme that they had developed in yearsof working for pulp magazines. Many of theirworks provided sources for classic films noir.(The Big Sleep, The Killers, The PostmanAlways Rings Twice).German and Eastern European expatriatescame to Hollywood in the thirties. DirectorsFritz Lang, Michael Curtiz, Billy Wilder, OttoPreminger, Edgar G. Ulmer and photogra¬phers Karl Freund, Rudolph Mate, and JohnAlton provided a core of artists working in thenoir. They provided an identifiable influenceon the film noir, a plastic visual style of ex¬pressionism that they brought over withthem. Soon after they arrived, expressionisttechniques were appearing in American films: vertical compositions as opposed to the tradi¬tional Griffithian horizontal ones, bizarrecamera angles, and special lighting effects in¬volving shadows and frame-fragmentingshafts of light.All these influences came to fruition in thefirst film noirs: The Maltese Falcon, The BigSleep, Casablanca, Laura. Yet these filmswere far tamer than the post-war noir was tobe. Featuring studio directors (Curtiz, Lang,Siodmak) and actors, these earlier films weremore connected with romanticism.The thirties and forties were the decades ofloners and detectives, the period closest incontent to the hard-boiled literature. Roman¬tic narrations were introduced to emphasize alove for the past and present at the expenseof the future. This was underscored with com¬plex chronological orders suggesting a feelingof hopelessness against the destructive forcesof time. These films reflected their protago¬nists’ vision just as the Laura of Laura is also aconstruction of its protagonist’s imagination.Post War Realism:A new bitternessAfter the war, what critic and director PaulSchrader termed realism was introduced. InHollywood realism changed film noir in sever¬al ways. Deep-focus photography developedby James Wong Howe and Stanley Cortez wasused extensively in the films of Orson Wellesand William Wyler. With all objects within aframe in equal focus, the setting became em¬phasized as much as the actors. Locationshooting was introduced. One of the firstfilms to be shot on location was a film noir:Anthony Mann's T-Men. Producers Mark Hel-linger and Louis de Rochemont, introducedthe “documentary narrative” so that the lat¬ter could proudly proclaim of his Kiss Of Deaththat "every scene was filmed on the actual lo¬cation depicted.”With this new realism came a new bitter¬ness. These films featured more ambiguousprotagonists in the context of a corrupt soci¬ety. Common to this period were less roman¬tic heroes and more straightforward direc¬tors. Among the actors were Burt Lancaster,Dennis O'Keefe, Richard Conte — a decidedlytougher crew. These pseudo-documentaries ofurban violence were now directed by Mann,Hathaway, Dassin. In Raw Deal, The Killers,Union Station, The Big Clock, Call Northaide777 the noir swung awiy from expressionistabstraction in favor of more explicit socialcommentary.However, even if the cameras moved out¬doors and the characters to grimy city backstreets, some of the noir traits of the earlierperiod remained. In The Killers, we find againcomplex chronological order, in Raw Deal aLauren Bacall and Humphrey Bogart in Howard Hawks’ The Big Sleep16 - The Grey City Journal — Friday, March 13. 1979 Sam Fuller's Pickup on South Streetpeculiarly romantic narration by the protago¬nist’s girlfriend, and throughout all, the useof shadows and crogs-cutting shafts of lightmade even more extreme and menacingagainst the alleys and grimy buildings. Infact, one of the central noir techniques, night-for-night shooting rather than the filteredday-for-night, now found a double rationale:in one way it was more ‘realistic’. It lookedmore like ‘night’ yet this very technique em¬phasized the more abstract aspect as wellsince the contrast between what was lightedand the rest of the frame was so extreme thatthe darkness itself took on dramatic force.1949-1955The apex of complexity,the nadir of moodThe high point of the film noir: the apex ofits psychological, metaphysical, structuralcomplexity and the nadir of its protagonistsand mood had developed by the early fifties.These are the darkest of the noirs. The charac¬ters are uniformly corrupt — not only corrupt¬ed by crime but by evil itself. In these filmsthe protagonists are psychotic, suicidal (likeJimmy Cagney’s character in Raoul Walsh’sfamous White Heat: a criminal with a fixationon his mother). Now there are not alwayseven excuses given for madness: in Gun Crazythe B-film Bonnie and Clyde have no excuse —their actions are just "crazy”. Jimmy Cagneymade his comeback in this period, along withsuch other neurotic personae as Robert Ryanand Lee Marvin. Otto Premininger and Nicho¬las Ray were the more psychologically orient¬ed directors.Films like The Big Heat, Caught, D.O.A., OnDangerous Ground, Where The Sidewalk Endswere extremely self-conscious. The directorsexplored the roots of the noir vision in socialand psychic instability, in a total loss of honorand integrity, in the archaism of conven¬tions.Under this influence the noir protagonistgoes mad. For these characters and films, theworld has the smell of death, dominated bycorruption. The protagonists — Glenn Ford’s re¬vengeful policeman in The Big Heat, Dana An¬drew’s paranok.c cop in Where The SidewalkEnds, Ralph Meeker’s sleazy "bedroom dick”in Kiss Me Deadly — are all at the very edge:only hatred, revenge, and sometimes inertiakeep these characters alive. D.O.A. is told bythe flashbacks of a dying man, trying to findthe men who poisoned him. What he finds ismore confusion: the entire situation is unrea¬sonable. At the end, narrating his story to thepolice he dies, unbelieved.The ultimate metaphoric trip into existen-tal America is Kiss Me Deadly. All the ele¬ments of the noir are consciously and fully de¬veloped. There are no establishing shots toprovide continuity; crazy camera anglesabound, and every sequence is shot in a dif¬ ferent style. The structure of the film itself islike a Chinese Box as Mike Hammer, the Mick¬ey Spillane "bedroom dick” turns the under¬world upside down to find the "great what¬sit”: an atomic bomb which eventually blowsup the main characters and a good chunk ofCalifornia. The inverted moral viewpoint ofthe bedroom dick who feels no qualms aboutwhat he is doing because he is no worse thananybody else is accentuated by the titles,rolling by upside-down.For the film noir the disparate poles of ex¬pressionism and realism seem necessary co¬rollaries of each other — contradiction is thebasis of its style. There are few traditionallycomposed shots and the transitions are all butobvious in a noir. Precisely what is most ordi¬nary becomes strange and uncanny. And thatis the point. In a world in which an atomicbomb has the last word, a world where theaverage man is at the mercy of circumstance(D.O.A.) and violence is the way of the world,a world that seemingly can only be purifiedthrough this violence (The Big Heat), suchutter pessimism and blackness seems appro¬priate.After its heyday in the early fifties the filmnoir gave way to other genres. The enemy be¬came the Communist, rather than the worldand the cop careened down the expressway inhis business suit. Television and its emphasison full lighting and close-ups, killed expres¬sionism. A few stragglers remained: most im¬portantly Orson Welles’ A Touch Of Evil. In ad¬dition there were also films like Fuller’s andSiegel’s that remained in the noir mode and,of course, there were hommages by otherdirectors (for example, two films DOC is show¬ing: Jean-Pierre Melville’s Le Samourai andBurt Kennedy’s The Money Trap).to 17Otto PremingerSerious MummenschanzImitation of Lifeby Bruce ShapiroBad mime — much of what passes formime — is like cheap magic: entirelyderivative, without informing thought orprinciple, parlor tricks which annoy asmuch as delieht. At best we come awavwondering How He Did It. From theFrench classical tradition of Barraultand Marceau, Americans have absorbedthe concept of mime as imitation and re¬presentation, but without Marceau’s or¬ganization, thought, and soulfulness.Our mime is directed mostly to children:we think we can fool the kids, foist off onthem what we do not believe ourselves.Mummenschanz is the Europeanmime-mask troup in residence for themonth at the Studebaker Theatre. Withastonishing versatility, the trio whocomprises the entire company imper¬sonate a variety of real and imaginarycreatures and futz around with masksmade from household objects — note¬pads, toilet paper, Clorox bottles. Theirwork has little in common with the clas¬sical French forms — it is more fantasticand more consciously interpretive.Though often funny, Mummenschanz isa very serious entertainment. Beneaththe antics lie dark visions of human evo¬lution and social identity. Evolution according to Mummenscnuu* The first half of the program followsthe course of evolution from ameboid tohuman. The dozen or so creatures alongthe way are engaged in usually fierce,usually frustrated struggle; a struggle,most often, for height or erectness. Thevery first image is of the ameboid strug¬gling mightily to mount a low platform;its repeated failures are a source oflaughter, but it is a laughter moved andmuted by pathos — the ameboid is a pro¬tozoan Chaplin. Essentially the samescenario is repeated over and overagain, with jellyfish, a camel, a fly, andassorted other beasts. In one triumphantmoment, an ape finally stands upright —but the next and final image is of a huge,distorted, distended, degenerate humanhead collapsing down upon itself. It is aDarwinian nightmare.After intermission the company takesup personality and identity. Masks be¬come symbols for social personae. Awoman rearranges and disorders hertile face to suit the whim of two facelessmen. Two men with faces like scrabbleboard trade and finally lose blocks ofthemselves; another’s face is the imageof an hourglass. A couple made of toilet-paper rolls flay at each other with in¬ tense ferocity. It is a funny spectacle,but deeply disturbing.Fortunately for the children in the au¬dience, the implications of this weremostly lost on the critics and public rela¬tions people who sold the show. The kidscan attend mature entertainment with¬out guidance from grownups. The rest ofus can laugh and be frightened; Mum¬menschanz conveys a little of the senseof provocation and revelation which isthe distinction of art.Mummenschanz: dark visions of evolu¬tion and identityCourt Theatre’s Measure for Measureby Nicholas RudallMeasure for Measure is often referred toas one of Shakespeare’s “difficult” plays.After a couple of months of rehearsal, Iam convinced that that is an accuratedescription. I was drawn to the play, Ithink, precisely because it is difficult.And it seemed to me that the intimacy ofthe New Theatre would allow us to explorethe tortured and bewildered psyches ofthe protagonists. The primary problem isthat the play’s tone is elusive. It rapidlyshifts from farce to horror, from ironichumor to potential tragedy.The Duke of Vienna, recognizing that hehas no control over the corruption andsexual license in his city, surrenders thegovernment to his “strict deputy”Angelo. This is merely a ruse. The Dukeintends to return in disguise to seewhether severity will cure the evils in thecity. Angelo enforces the disused lawsagainst fornication. A young nobleman,Claudio, is immediately arrested and con¬demned to death. His sister, Isabella, anovitiate, comes before Angelo to pleadfor her brother’s life. The severe andfrom 16Doc’s Film NoirDOC’s series is disparate. The films rangechronologically from the pre-noir thirties tothe post-no/r seventies. There is a decidedlack of the major noirs — films like Double In¬demnity, The Big Heat, and Kiss Me Deadly —making the series a bit esoteric. Still theseries provides a chance to see some often un¬derrated films, in particular Don Siegel’s live¬ly remake of The Killers and Sam Fuller’s mas¬terful vision of hysteria in Underworld U.S.A.,both post-no/r. Also recommended are Al¬drich’s Ten Seconds To Heal, the blackest ofthe black: Mate's D.O.A.; Robert Mulligan’sThe Nickel Ride, a film lost in the shuffle: filmsby noir masters Anthony Mann and RaoulWalsh; and a film long unavailable, but withan underground reputation. Irving I.erner'sMurder By Contract. puritanical Angelo is struck by her beautyand her innocence. He briefly wrestleswith his desires, loses, and attempts toblackmail her: if she will yield to him. herbrother will be spared. This attemptedseduction of a novitiate is perhaps themain reason why the play w as rarely donein the 18th and 19th centuries. (Perhapsthat’s the reason for its current populari¬ty.) The beautiful and powerful scenesbetween Angelo and Isabella are bothmoving and dangerously comic. TheDuke, now disguised as a friar, in¬tervenes. He suggests to Isabella that shepretend to yield to Angelo. But they willsubstitute, in the dark, Mariana, a womanformerly betrothed to Angelo. The so call¬ed “bed trick” works. But Angelo never¬theless orders Claudio’s death and asks tosee the severed head. The frantic Duke im¬provises again. He sends the shaven headof a prisoner who has just died and thenreturns to expose his deputy.The energy of the play comes from theconflict between mercy and justice.Throughout the play the protagonistsseem to be struggling in darkness. Theymake decisions based on strong beliefs inthe purity of the law, the security ofChristian charity, the predictability ofhuman behavior. Their beliefs are un¬founded. As Isabella says:“... man, proud man,Dressed in a little brief authority.Most ignorant of what he’s mostassured -His glassy essence - like an angry apePlays such fantastic tricks beforehigh heavenAs makes the angels weep;’’The Duke finally dispenses a kind ofjustice and a seeming mercy. But we areleft discomforted. The play ends, as com¬edies do, with wounds healed, knots tiedand couples paired but while measure hasbeen given measure, the scales are tilted.We see the frailty of it all. And that. 1 amsure, is the point. Shakespeare’s vision isbleak but compassionate. The Grey City Journal — Friday.

Space visitors landing on earth and the final at¬tempts at establishing friendly communications with extra¬terrestrials form the basis of the simple plot. In the firstthird, UFO’s buzz Muncie, Indiana, kidnap a small child andwreak harmless havoc. Many of the effects designed and usedby previous movie directors to instill terror in the audiencehere have the same effect, but were in fact the result of abenevolent force. The muddled second third of the film servesonly to move the characters to the location of the final con¬frontation. It introduces a charming but shallow FrancoisTruffaut as the scientist actively seeking a close encounter.The final third of the movie is terrific — wonderful visual andaural effects (the best sound and light show since 2001) and anengagingly upbeat ending. The special effects are by DouglasTrumbull, who did the effects for 2001 and directed the cultclassic Silent Running. Trumbull was asked to do the specialeffects for Star Wars, but turned it down when he realized allthey wanted were finely detailed models. Here, he achievesa mystical experience involving unfocused light and sound;details are kept to a minimum. Although Close Encounterswill doubtless suffer in Cobb and Mandel Halls, it should beseen.

Whera sultry, new 19-year-old actress named Lauren Bacall propo¬sitioned Humphrey Bogart with the words “If you need any¬thing, just whistle - you know how to whistle, just put yourlips together and blow,” 1940’s audiences knew that she couldhold her own against Bogart. Bacall was no insecure, whim¬pering Ingrid Bergman telling Bogart to “do the thinking forboth of us”. This rare mutual respect and love between Bo¬gart and Bacall in To Have and Have Not has been equalled onthe screen only by Katharine Hepburn and Spencer tracy inAdam’s Rib. Next to Casablanca, this is the most enjoyableBogart film, with a screenplay by William Faulkner and JulesFurthman based on a story that Ernest Hemingway thoughtwas his own worst work. Hawks directs with exceptional sen¬sitivity and clarity, reworking the old Hollywood mythologyand a lackadaisical narrative into a memorable work of art.Highly recommended. Saturday at 7:90 and 9:30 in CobbHall.Wild Strawberries (Doc). Directed by Ingmar Bergman. WildStrawberries is a touching black & white treatment of one ofthe oldest subjects of narrative art: The reminiscence ofyouth. The aged Professor Borg experiences a number ofdreams and flashbacks inspired by his company (his daughter- in-law and three young hitchhikers) during a long drive to anaward ceremony. The memories are often filled with mo¬ments of simple happiness, yet also reveal the professor’spast failings. In the end, the genuine affection of the younghitchhikers for Borg gives him deep serenity as he faces theeventuality of his own death. Recommended. Saturday at7:00 and 10:30 in Cobb Hall.The Magician (Doc) Directed by Ingmar Bergman. The mastermagician among directors creates a mystical 19th-Centuryworld of magic, hypnotism and apparent reincarnation. Whena traveling troupe led by Max Von Sydow is humiliated by anevil medical officer, Von Sydow hypnotizes the constable’swife who procedes to relate her amorous adventures. Berg¬man’s narrative is as indirect as ever, with the kind of ob¬scurity that thrills critics and divinity students.

In this early silent film Murnau’s expressive cameratackles a murder mystery. Murnau’s moving cinematographyand comparatively long takes comprise the forerunner oftoday’s expansive camera styles, but there is a conciseness ofvisual expression and an orderliness to Murnau’s world thatis rarely found today. Murnau’s movement is the antithesis ofEinstein’s montage, but it is interesting to see films from anera when major film styles were still being created.

Moderately Prieed20 — The Grey City Journal — Friday, March 13, 1979XUC denies public guardian’s chargesfrom 1Huggin’s earlier work had demonstratedthat adrenalectomies could improve thecondition of patients with mammary andprostatic carcinoma. It was also thoughtthat the removal of the adrenal glandresulted in arresting schizophrenia. Hug¬gins’ prostatic cancer research in partwas the source of his Nobel prize.Bruckner said he had conferred with Hug¬gins, but he would not reveal what was said.Huggins has been unavailable for commentand his secretary refers all calls toBruckner. Bruckner, however, saidWednesday he “would not presume to, had not been asked to. and would not’’ representHuggins.Of the six patients whose adrenal glandswere removed, five were moved to Billingsfrom Manteno State Hospital. Two patients,one schizophrenic and one paranoidpsychotic, had cancer. The remaining fourdid not have cancer.Manteno State Hospital is 55 miles southof Chicago. According to Vice-President ofthe Medical Center Robert Uretz, there is“no formal institutional relationship” bet¬ween the University and Manteno. Thereare, however, “working relationships” bet¬ween departments and individuals atManteno and at the University, Uretz said.Clinical Investigation Committee chairman Dr. Richard Landau: The suit is “evil.” Responding to specific charges by Mur¬phy, Bruckner said:•that patients operated on were kept atBillings Hospital for six months after theoperations, not returned to Manteno State;•that the six patient study was fundedthrough grants from private organizations,not by the Department of Health, Educationand Welfare; and•that “monitoring the care of the patientshas been continuous since the operation.”Bruckner said Murphy made his chargeswithout asking for patients’ records fromthe University. Asked if the Universitywould have furnished Murphy with therecords had they been requested Brucknersaid. “I would assume so.“We deplore Mr. Murphy’s methods,which give publicity to allegations that havenot been tested by inquiry or supported bysubstantive evidence and that may do graveand underserved harm to individual reputa¬tions, as well as to institutions,” Brucknersaid.The University statement was “cor¬porate,” Bruckner said Thursday. Presi¬dent Hanna Gray. General Counsel AllisonDunham, Uretz. and Bruckner prepared thestatement together, Bruckner said.Several faculty members expressed shockthat the media would publicize Murphy’sallegations without allowing the Universityto respond. “It is a complete misrepresenta¬ tion. It is the kind of thing that destroys yourfaith in the press.” said Elwood Jenson,Charles Huggins Professor in the Ben MayLaboratory for Cancer Research.“The University was caught by surprise,”an official said. According to Bruckner, ittook almost a day for the University to ob¬tain a copy of the suit.“We would never do any research thatwas not ethically, morally, and legally cor¬rect,” said Frederick Entin. Universitydirector of medical-legal affairs and a CICmember.According to Uretz, “to the best of myknowledge,” the University does not andhas never used mental patients for researchnot directly related to their conditions.Many faculty members expressed dismayat the shadows the suit has cast on thereputation of Huggins. “His friends havebeen terribly offended.” Bruckner said.«^fter he received the Nobel prize in 1966.Huggins said he does research “by thegolden rule.” He would not do research hethought was harmful, even if he could learnsomething by it. he said.In a 1951 article in the Journal of theAmerican Medical Association, he said,“Adrenal surgery must never be embarkedupon lightly.”CIC Chairman Dr. Richard Landau calledthe suit “evil.” ‘The best objective state¬ment is the University’s,” he said.' vProcedure for research approvalFor at least the past 10 years, theClinical Investigation Committee (CIC)has reviewed and approved research in¬volving human subjects.“We comply with whatever the law sayswe must do,” said Frederick Entin,University director of medical-legal af¬fairs and a CIC member.Consent from the patient is obtainedbefore surgery, if the patient is legallycompetent, as some mentally handicappedpeople are. said Entin. If he is not. a guar¬dian or conservator may sign a consentform for him.There are additional restrictions regar-V ding those in mental institutions imposedby the Department of Health. Education,and Welfare and the National Institute ofHealth. Entin said."I believe the University anticipatedthose restrictions,” he added. The Univer¬sity required written consent from pa¬tients or guardians long before the federalgovernment required it. according to Vice-President for Public Affairs.

They upped theirrecord to 2-2 Wednesday with a 9-0 win overRoosevelt University but they’ve had to ad¬just to four different types of composite in¬door surfaces including, wooden floors atRipon College, as well as varied ceilingheights.The once-postponed Roosevelt match wasfinally held in the Crown Field House,despite what coach Chris Scott called “agreater than usual home-court advantage.”After three months of practice, the Maroons are accustomed to the quick tartan surfaceand low lighting levels.Only first seed Bruce Carman had troubleas he defeated his opponent in a tie-breakerin the first set and won the second set 7-5.Roger Lewis. Blair Ewing, David Seropian,Ken Kohl, and Geri Mildner scored easywins, as did the doubles teams of Carman-Lewis. Ewing-Seropian. and Mildner-JeffJohnson.Results were a little more mixed lastSaturday when the team traveled to RiponCollege in Wisconsin for a triangle meetwith Ripon and Lawrence Colleges AfterRipon blew Lawrence off the courts 9-0, the Maroons finished Lawrence off by dealingthem a 6-3 defeat.Chicago couldn’t continue their winningways into the match with Ripon, howeverMildner took his singles match to three setsand the doubles teams of Carman-Lewis andEwing-Seropian played well but no effortwas enough to prevent the Maroons fromgetting shut out 9-0The team has suffered in the past threeyears because while it has been a youngteam, a number of promising players haveeither transferred or been unable to par¬ticipate because of academic commitments.gram.Lombardi told Maroon reporter MarkWallach that he was hampered in makingfurther improvements. He said he was dis¬appointed at not being able to achieve whathe wanted at Chicago. Lombardi said he feltthere needed to be better cooperation be¬tween the admissions office and the athleticdepartment. Lombardi felt some active re¬cruitment was necessary to bring in the15-20 new players each year to support anew football program. This year’s squadstarted out with just over 35 players.Lombardi said he thought the real prob¬lem was “a difference in philosophies.”Karuzz, reached by phone on Wednesday,was enthusiastic about the prospective ap¬pointment, calling it ‘‘a very, very greathonor.” Kuruzz mentioned the “prestigiousacademic climate” and said he was“thrilled to death” by the whole thing.Karuzz also emphasized that he wanted to“work w'ithin the framework of the Univer¬sity and keep their goals and philosophies inttoe forefront.”The prospective varsity coach is eager tobegin work for the new season. Karuzz saidhe had already had a call from some of theplayers and that he plans to visit the Univer¬sity soon after the official announcement ismade to meet with the players and assistantcoaches.One of the players he won’t be meeting isstar running back Dale Friar. Friar, who al¬most didn’t return to Chicago this fall, leftschool in December and hasn’t returned.Sources said there was a small possibilitythat he might return next season, but that hewould probably go on to chiropracticschool.Despite the loss of Friar, the new headcoach shouild have a relatively large andexperienced squad to work with. Only fivemembers of last season's team were se¬niors.Photo: John WrightBy RW RohdeTom Kuruzz, an assistant football coach atMillersville State University in Millersville,Pennsylvania has been selected to becomethe fifth head coach in Maroon history. Theselection, which will become official pend¬ing administration approval, was an¬nounced at a football meeting last Tuesdaynight. Kuruzz will replace Bob Lombardi,who resigned earlier this year.The official announcement of Kuruzz’s ap¬pointment is anticipated to come at anytime. Sources said the final selectionprocess was held up due to the chaos causedby the near-disaster at the Three-Mile Is¬land nuclear power plant. As is the normalprocedure for academic appointments, theUniversity makes a tentative offer to be ac¬cepted before the final announcement ismade.The appointment would be Kuruzz’s first as a head coach in six years of coaching ex¬perience. Kuruzz spent time as an assistantline coach at the University of Kentucky andthe University of Tennessee at Chatanooga.Kuruzz played on the offensive line at Ten¬nessee for four years before taking the as¬sistant job under Joe Morgan, one timecoach of the New York Giants. Kuruzz, anex-marine, was an offensive coordinator atMcCallie Prep School in Chattanooga beforehe took the Kentucky job.Kuruzz has been at Millersville only oneyear where he has been finishing up hisM.A. degree in counseling. Millersville was6-3 in division III competition this year.Lombardi, who had a 9-15 record duringhis three years at Chicago, was reportedlyfrustrated with his recent experiences at theUniversity. Lombardi came to the job at atime when the Maroons had just won theirfirst game in three years and built the teamup, bringing “respectability” to the pro¬gram.start promising season stronging won two of their first three games. In thefirst game of last Saturday’s double headeragainst Concordia, Jeff Foreman and JonWinklereid each knocked in a pair of runs ina four-run fifth to give Bruns his first victo¬ry of the year, 10-5. In the nightcap, howev¬er, the Maroons played a sloppy first inningand never recovered, losing 5-3. Last Tues¬day, Chicago edged out a 5-4 victory overseasoned George Williams College, behind 9strikeouts by Hruban and Kinczel.So far this year, the Maroons have al¬lowed only four unearned runs and the pitch¬ers have allowed almost two runs per gameless than last year. At this writing, theMaroons win-total is exactly double thecombined number of victories of two otherChicago baseball teams.MaroonsBy Mark WallachThey sometimes go to class with their uni¬forms on beneath their street clothes be¬cause attending afternoon classes doesn’t team somehow perseveres. Since January,they’ve been in the Fieldhouse liftingweights, tossing the ball around, and takingbatting practice. Although Coach ChuckSchaht, in his first year as Head Coach, con¬give them time to Change before the game.They play in a conference that has morespring training games than conferencegames. And they are in a city that just poss¬ibly has the worst spring weather in the uni¬verse.Through it all. the 1979 Maroon baseball siders the team’s inordinate trials andwacky schedule to be “rather absurd,” he’sproud that his players really are student-athletes and notes, “I wouldn’t have it anyother way.”This year’s team, boosted by several new¬comers and returning most of last year’skey players, should ilnprove substantiallyon 1978’s disappointing 6-9 mark. With thepossible exception of third base, Schachtconsiders the team “solid at every posi¬tion:” Fence-busting Byron Trott (.385, 8stolen bases), powerful catcher Don Ciciora(.333 and 14 rbi), and veteran shortstopScott Jansen (.273). Freshmen right fielderJeff Foreman is off to a sensational startwith a .455 average after three games andhard-hitting Mike Giblin returns to the de¬signated hitter spot after sitting out the endof last season.But Schacht considers pitching the key tothis year’s team. “As our pitchers go, sogoes the success of our team.” John Bruns,the ace of the staff who won five of theteam’s six games last year, and speed-bailers Ralph Hruban and Joe Kinczel headthe staff, but the loss of crafty portsiderSteve Rogut, who left last fall, will hurt. Ifthe present trio can keep a sharp commandof their control it will force batsmen to earntheir way on and also tighten up the defense.“We get in trouble when the pitchers throwball four, ball four, ball four, because the de¬fense tends to relax,” Schacht said. TheMaroons hope to improve on last year’s de¬fense which allowed an astounding 39 un¬earned runs in 15 games.The team is off to a promising start, hav-fSportsFun RunThe women’s track team will host a funrun at their last home meet of the season.The co-ed events will be held tomorrowafternoon beginning with a 3,000m run at1:30 and concluding with a 1,500m run at 2pm.©PAY'!April 13,April 14,April 15, 5:00 p.m.7:30 p.m.6:00 p.m. Good Friday Liturgy, Rockefeller ChapelEaster Vigil and Resurrection EucharistRockefeller Chapel.

That was the yearMaroons brought the University the onlymajor athletic crown in recent memory.That was the year Chicago won four straightgames in the double-elimination state tour¬nament to cap off a season in which theteam was undefeated in small college. Thatwas the year that the Maroons were so deepin talent that they could lose seven players(six to graduation) and still be good enoughto make very strong run at their second con¬secutive season. Not that last season was easy. Chicagobroke the previous year’s streak with a ven-gance, dropping their first four games be¬fore turning around to start a new streak bywinning their next nine. The Maroons had afew rainouts last year, and one of thosecame on the second day of the state tourna¬ment. Chicago, who had won the first ofthree games (the tournament switched tosingle-elimination last year) and was toplay a team they had squashed 16-3 earlierin the season in their semi-final match, hadto be content with a defacto championship.While the present 1-3 record may not looklike anyway to win a state title, those firstfour games need a little perspective. Not tomake any excuses for the team, but three ofIM ReportSpring(?) action beginsBy Howard SulsWrapping up last quarter, in men’sdoubles table tennis Ewing and Fieberg ofThompson South bested Cha and Long ofHenderson for the residence title.

The other game was a7-6 loss against Concordia in the first gameof the season.The Concordia game was part of the firstannual Windy City tournament. TheMaroons recorded a 13-2 loss to Southern Il¬linois University and 7-5 victory over De-Paul before the reset of the tournament wasrained out last Sunday. All of the gameswere shortened to five innings.DePaul came down to North Field onTuesday for a full-size seven inning re¬match. Chicago would have been better offif the game had ended after five inningswhen they held a 6-2 lead. DePaul rallied forsix runs in the last two innings and stopped aMaroon rally in the seventh inning to carryaway an 8-6 victory.The main strength of this year’s squadcomes from the core of four players whoplayed on the 1977 championship team; se¬niors Teresa Friend and Ann Harvilla andjuniors Kim Curran and Janet Torrey. Cur¬ran and Harvilla trade off between thepitching mound and first base while Friendand Torrey provide good hitting at the plateand solid defense in left field and secondbase respectively. Torrey returned to thesquad this year after a season long hiatus.The rest of the squad is somewhat unk¬nown. Mary Klemundt and Kim Hammondare providing fine defense and some offen¬sive spark between them. Klemundt movedto catcher when Gail Ellingwood was in¬jured while Hammond came in from the out¬field to replace Klemundt at shortstop.Coach Pat Kirby is still toying with therest of the squad. With the exception of Mar¬sha Stiens and rightfielder Ruth Eisen. shemay find it an easier job finding the perfectline-up than putting it on paper — betweenVeronica Wisiewski, Maria DiCerio. MariaElena-Malo and Anna-Maria Molinaro, fill¬ing the line-up card is a big job Photo: John WrightThe Maroons traveled to Northwesternyesterday before playing their second homegame, a double header against pereniallypowerful Illinois State University next Tues¬day beginning at 3 pm. All this should getthe squad in shape for four straight confer¬ence games starting at St. Xavier nextWednesday.By Red BoxcoreEveryone was saying how good the WhiteSox looked in spring training down in Flori¬da: working out hard to get in shape, learn¬ing and relearning the fundamentals ofbaseball. But anyone judging the team onthe basis of Tuesday’s home opener at Co-miskey Park would have to say the onlything the team brought north with themwere their suntans.After last seasons poor 71-90 record, theSox were unable to deal in the trade marketand met with little succes in acquiring freeagents. Instead, the Sox fired managerLarry Doby, a midseason replacement forBob Lemon, and replaced Doby with DonKessinger, a popular shortstop and a formerCub. According to Sox owner Bill Veeck, theunwillingness of other clubs to deal with theSox indicates how strong the team is. Oneother club owner however complained thiswinter that the Sox were not making reason¬able offers.Still, the Sox had enough talent in theirfarm system to provide stiff competition forseveral spots on their roster. To make room for newcomers, the team cut Ron Blomberg.a free agent acquistion in 1977 and will haveto pay him $125,000 not to play this year be¬cause of his no-cut contract with the Sox.The White Sox also dropped Bobby Molin¬aro, a less expensive free agent who led theteam in stolen bases with 22 last year.On the mound the Sox will probably gowith a pitching rotation of Ken Kravec. Fran¬cisco Barrios (who has been out with theflu), Richard Wortham, and Mike Proly. Ofthe four, Wortham had the best spring, fin¬ishing up with a 6-0 record and a 1.75 earnedrun average. Last Sunday he led the team toits first victory by defeating the BaltimoreOrioles. . .The 41,000 fans who shivered throughnear-freezing temperatures on Tuesday sawToronto jump out to a 1-0 lead in the first in¬ning. Further damage was prevented whencenterfielder Chet Lemon made a divingcatch on a sinking line drive that could havegone for extra bases. It was one of the fewthings the crowd had to cheer about all day.Bill Veeck said after the game that he wasso embarrassed by the showing on the fieldPhoto John Wright Host Chicago takes fourthThe women’s track and field team hostedtheir first outdoor meet of the season, theUniversity of Chicago Invitational, inbrutally cold weather last Saturday. Thesevere cold was not conducive to excellentperformances, hampering not only the har¬dy Maroons, but also the runners from theeight other schools involvedThe weather was not cold enough to forcethe action inside however, which was toobad only because the Maroons, who arestrong in track events, would probably havewon an indoor meet with limited fieldevents. Instead, the Maroons got a chance toget some field competition while finishingfive points out of first place in a very closemeet.The meet was so close, in fact, that thefive-point difference put the Maroons infourth place with 70 points.Chicago began the day witn a strong startin the 440 hurdles when Vicki Powers set aschool record in 74.5. -while Carol Barette came in fourth. Cindi Sanborn and KarenLuh placed second and third, in the two milerun respectively, to increase the«Maroon’spoint total to 30.The Maroons got most of their other pointsfrom strong performances from Barb Hor-nung and the two-mile relay teams Hor-nung ran a strong second place in the 880and a fine fourth in the 440 before teamingup with Luh, Sandbom. and Janet Rossel totake the tw'o-mile relay.With the help of a third place finish by thesecond two-mile team, the Maroons pushedthemselves up to fourth place behind Con¬cordia (75), Wheaton (734), and Grinell(724).The Maroons finish off a short homeseason with their last home meet tomorrowafternoon at Stagg Field. Two open co-edfun runs will be held concurrently with thewomen. A 3,000m run will occur at 1:30followed by a 1,500m run at 2:00he invited the crowd to attend the next day sgame free of charge. (It wras rained out andrescheduled for Thursday.)One particular bright spot on the season'steam is the outfield. Jimmy Piersall, theteam’s television announcer was named anassociate coach this spring and given the as¬signment of working with the outfielders,one of the White Sox weaknesses of lastyear. The competition for positions waskeen, but the starting lineup emerged withRalph Garr in left, Chet Lemon in center,and Claudell Washington in right.The Sox will face the Yankees this week¬end in a three game series at ComiskeyPark. Sunday is helmet day, and the WhiteSox are planning a number of Easter sur¬prises.
